CSLM Acquisition Corp. extends deadline for business combination

CSLM Acquisition Corp., a company listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market under the ticker CSLM and currently valued at $69.42 million, has announced a deposit of $30,000 into its trust account. This strategic move, made on Thursday, extends the company's deadline to complete a business combination to January 18, 2025. The announcement was made in a Form 8-K filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission today.

The deposit is part of CSLM Acquisition Corp.'s ability to extend the period for finalizing a business combination on a monthly basis. The company has the option to continue extending this deadline, at the cost of $30,000 for each additional month, up until July 18, 2025.

CSLM Acquisition Corp., previously known as Consilium Acquisition Corp I, Ltd., is a Cayman Islands-registered company with its principal executive offices located in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida. The company trades on the Nasdaq with several securities, including units (CSLMU), Class A ordinary shares (CSLM), redeemable warrants (CSLMW), and rights (CSLMR).

According to InvestingPro analysis, the company maintains strong liquidity with a current ratio of 1.54, and its stock shows remarkably low volatility with a beta of 0.02.

The company's CEO, Charles Cassel, signed the SEC filing, which was submitted on the same day as the deposit. The filing also confirms CSLM Acquisition Corp.'s status as an emerging growth company and details its securities registered under Section 12(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

This extension provides CSLM Acquisition Corp. with additional time to identify and merge with a target company, which is a common practice for special purpose acquisition companies (SPACs) like CSLM. The trust account deposit is a commitment to stakeholders that the company is actively working towards its goal of a business combination.
