In a recent development, DT Cloud Acquisition Corp (NASDAQ:DYCQ), a $96.17 million market cap SPAC currently trading near its 52-week high of $10.90, has received shareholder approval to extend the deadline for completing a business combination. According to InvestingPro data, the company maintains a healthy financial position with a current ratio of 1.48. At the extraordinary general meeting held on Thursday, the company’s investors voted in favor of extending the maximum period for consummating a merger from February 23, 2026, to May 23, 2026.

The proposal, known as the Extension Amendment Proposal, was passed with a significant majority, with 5,462,944 votes for and 811,801 against. The Trust Amendment Proposal, which aligns the company’s Investment Management Trust Agreement with the approved extension, also received similar voting results.
