MENLO PARK, CA - Cal Redwood Acquisition Corp. (NASDAQ: CRAQU) announced the pricing of its initial public offering (IPO) at $10.00 per unit, with trading on the Nasdaq Global Market set to commence on Friday. The offering comprises 20 million units, each consisting of one Class A ordinary share and one right to receive one-tenth of a Class A ordinary share post an initial business combination. This SPAC IPO joins a select group of new listings in 2025, as the market continues to show selective appetite for quality blank-check companies.

The company, which targets business combinations in the technology, media, and telecommunications (TMT) sectors, as well as sectors disrupted by technology, anticipates closing the offering on May 27, 2025, subject to standard closing conditions. The TMT sector has shown resilient growth potential, with InvestingPro analysis indicating strong digital transformation trends driving valuations in this space. Following the separate trading of the securities, Cal Redwood’s Class A ordinary shares and rights are expected to be listed under the tickers CRA and CRAQR, respectively.

Cohen & Company Capital Markets, a division of J.V.B. Financial Group, LLC, is serving as the lead book-running manager, with Seaport Global Securities as the joint book-runner. Additionally, the underwriters have been given a 45-day option to purchase up to an additional 3 million units to cover potential over-allotments.

The company’s strategy involves leveraging its management team’s operational and investment expertise to identify potential business combination targets. The IPO is being conducted through a prospectus, which interested parties can obtain from Cohen & Company Capital Markets when it becomes available.
