Insights

Capital markets analyst

Standard SPAC IPO close with funds placed in trust.

FutureCrest Acquisition Corp. completed a typical SPAC IPO structure: 28.75M units at $10.00 for $287.5M gross, plus a concurrent private placement of 3.5M warrants at $2.00 for $7.0M. Each whole warrant is exercisable at $11.50 per share, consistent with market convention.

Proceeds of $287.5M, including a deferred underwriting discount of $12.25M, were deposited into a trust account on September 29, 2025. This structure preserves capital for a future business combination; actual deployment depends on subsequent shareholder actions and deal execution.

The near-term focus is administrative: trust maintenance and financial reporting (Exhibit 99.1 provides the audited balance sheet as of September 29, 2025). Subsequent filings may outline any proposed business combination and related redemptions and financing terms.

Each Unit consists of one Class A ordinary share of the Company, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class A Ordinary Shares”), and one-quarter of one redeemable warrant of the Company (each whole warrant, a “Warrant”), with each whole Warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one Class A Ordinary Share for $11.50 per share. The Units were sold at a price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $287,500,000.

Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, the Company completed the private sale (the “Private Placement”) of an aggregate of 3,500,000 warrants (the “Private Placement Warrants”), with each Private Placement Warrant exercisable to purchase one Class A Ordinary Share at $11.50 per share. Of the 3,500,000 Private Placement Warrants, 2,250,000 Private Placement Warrants were sold to FutureCrest Acquisition Sponsor LLC, the Company’s sponsor, and 1,250,000 Private Placement Warrants were sold to Cantor Fitzgerald & Co., the representative of the underwriters in the IPO, in each case at a purchase price of $2.00 per Private Placement Warrant, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $7,000,000.

A total of $287,500,000, or $10.00 per Unit, comprised of the net proceeds from the IPO (which amount includes the underwriter’s deferred discount of $12,250,000) and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants, was placed in a U.S.-based trust account maintained by Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, acting as trustee.
