Archimedes Tech SPAC Partners II Co. (NASDAQ:ATII), a special purpose acquisition company with a current market capitalization of $208.27 million, has announced the successful completion of its initial public offering (IPO) and a simultaneous private placement, resulting in substantial funds being placed in a trust account. According to InvestingPro data, the stock currently trades at $10.03 and shows notably low price volatility. The IPO, which concluded on February 12, 2025, saw the company offering 23 million units, including a fully exercised over-allotment option for an additional 3 million units, at $10.00 each. This generated $230 million in gross proceeds.
Each unit sold in the IPO consists of one ordinary share and one-half of one redeemable warrant, where a whole warrant allows the purchase of an ordinary share at a price of $11.50, subject to adjustments. Alongside the public offering, a private placement was carried out in which Archimedes Tech SPAC Sponsors II LLC, the sponsor of the company, and BTIG, LLC, the underwriters’ representative, bought 840,000 private units at the same unit price, adding $8.4 million to the total funds raised. InvestingPro analysis indicates the stock is trading near its 52-week high, with a Financial Health Score of 2.23, rated as FAIR.
As of February 12, 2025, the combined net proceeds from the IPO and the private placement, totaling $231.15 million, were deposited into a trust account for the benefit of the company’s public shareholders.

The filing provided a snapshot of the company’s balance sheet as of the date of the report, reflecting the financial position post-IPO and private placement.
