WinVest Acquisition Corp., a SPAC formed to complete an Initial Business Combination, reported a net loss of $275,598 for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and has not yet commenced core operations. Assets total $3.09M, including $2.95M of cash held in a Trust Account for public shareholders.
Current liabilities are $8.17M, plus $4.03M of deferred underwriting commissions, resulting in a stockholders’ deficit of $12.15M and a working capital deficit of $8.03M. There are 205,950 public shares classified as redeemable at $14.81 per share and 2,875,000 non-redeemable founder shares outstanding.
The company has repeatedly extended its deadline to complete a deal, now to September 17, 2026, funded by sponsor-backed, non‑interest‑bearing extension notes with $2.22M outstanding and other related‑party promissory notes totaling $1.86MEmbed Financial Group Holdings that remains unconsummated. Management discloses substantial doubt about the ability to continue as a going concern given limited cash, significant obligations, and the fixed liquidation date.
WinVest Acquisition Corp. reported that it has drawn the sixth $30,000 installment under its previously issued $180,000 unsecured Promissory Note from its sponsor, WinVest SPAC LLC. The note bears no interest and matures upon either the closing of an initial business combination or the company’s liquidation.
On August 10, 2026, the sponsor deposited the additional $30,000 into the company’s trust account, extending the business combination deadline, or Termination Date, from August 17, 2026 to September 17, 2026. The extension funds in the trust account will ultimately be distributed either to public shareholders upon liquidation or to public shareholders who elect redemption in connection with a business combination.
WinVest Acquisition Corp. changed its independent auditor following a business acquisition. After Simon & Edward LLP acquired the attest business of BCRG Group effective June 15, 2026, WinVest’s audit committee dismissed BCRG and, on June 23, 2026, approved Simon & Edward as the new independent registered public accounting firm.
BCRG’s reports on WinVest’s 2024 and 2025 financial statements contained no adverse or disclaimed opinions and were not qualified, but included an explanatory paragraph about substantial doubt regarding WinVest’s ability to continue as a going concern. The filing states there were no disagreements with BCRG and no reportable events other than previously disclosed material weaknesses in internal control. WinVest requested, and filed as Exhibit 16.1, a confirming letter from BCRG.
WinVest Acquisition Corp. disclosed that on June 10, 2026 it drew a third installment of $30,000 under a previously issued unsecured promissory note with its sponsor. The total principal available under this promissory note is $180,000, structured as up to six equal draws of $30,000 each.
The company caused the sponsor to deposit this $30,000 into its trust account to fund an extension of the deadline to complete an initial business combination, moving the termination date from June 17, 2026 to July 17, 2026. The note bears no interest and is repayable upon a completed business combination or, if none occurs, only from funds held outside the trust account.
WinVest Acquisition Corp. announced that on May 26, 2026 it and counterparties executed an Amended and Restated Business Combination Agreement to replace the prior business combination agreement with Embed Financial Group entities. The restatement adds sponsored American Depositary Share facilities and records a share-capital restructuring into 480,000,000 Class A and 20,000,000 Class B Ordinary Shares. Pubco intends to file a Form F-4 containing a proxy statement/prospectus in connection with the proposed business combination; shareholder approval and other customary conditions remain required.
WinVest Acquisition Corp. entered into an amended and restated business combination agreement with Embed Financial Group Cayman Holdings and related merger subsidiaries on May 26, 2026. This Restated Business Combination Agreement replaces the original December 2025 deal in full.
The revised structure introduces American Depositary Shares with The Bank of New York Mellon as depositary. Each Embed Company Class A share and each SPAC common share outstanding immediately before their respective mergers will be cancelled and converted into the right to receive Pubco Class A ordinary shares represented by ADSs, with SPAC warrants and rights similarly linked to ADSs.
The Company has also completed a share capital restructuring, setting authorized capital at 480,000,000 Class A Ordinary Shares and 20,000,000 Class B Ordinary Shares. A Form F‑4 registration statement with a combined proxy statement/prospectus is expected to be filed, and SPAC stockholders will later be asked to approve the Restated Business Combination Agreement and related transactions.
WinVest Acquisition Corp. and Embed Financial Group Cayman Holdings have filed a Form F-4 proxy statement/prospectus to effect a two-step business combination: (1) a merger of Embed Financial Group Cayman Holdings into a Pubco structure and (2) a reverse merger of WinVest into Pubco, with accompanying unit conversions and warrant assumptions. The proxy covers 32,322,617 Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares, 22,400,000 Assumed Warrants, and 11,200,000 Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of those warrants. The transaction contemplates a PIPE financing, Pubco ADS issuance, NYSE listing plans for EFGH and EFGHW, and identifies governance consequences including Founder Dennis Ng beneficially owning 14,025,000 Class B shares representing 80.59% voting power post-closing (assuming no redemptions). Several sponsor interests, founder shares, private warrants and historical trust-account redemptions are disclosed. Certain proposals (e.g., Pubco charter, director elections, equity incentive pool equal to 10% of post-close shares) are conditioned on shareholder approval of the Business Combination Proposal.
WinVest Acquisition Corp. drew an additional $30,000 on an existing sponsor loan to keep its blank-check company alive for another month. This is the third draw under an unsecured promissory note with a total principal of $180,000, which carries no interest and matures at either a business combination closing or liquidation.
The $30,000 was deposited into the SPAC’s trust account to extend the deadline to complete an initial business combination from May 17, 2026 to June 17, 2026. These funds ultimately support redemptions or liquidation payouts for public shareholders depending on whether a deal is completed.
WinVest Acquisition Corp. disclosed that it drew a second installment of $30,000 under a previously issued unsecured promissory note of $180,000 with its sponsor to fund a deadline extension for completing a business combination.
The sponsor deposited the $30,000 into the company’s trust account, extending the termination date for completing an initial business combination from April 17, 2026 to May 17, 2026. The note bears no interest and matures upon either closing a business combination or the company’s liquidation. If no deal is completed, repayment will come only from funds held outside the trust account, and the extension funds in the trust will ultimately be distributed to public shareholders through redemption or liquidation.
