Horizon Space extends merger timeline with deposit

Horizon Space Acquisition I Corp. (NASDAQ:HSPO), a $50.48 million market cap SPAC trading near its 52-week high of $13.70, has extended the deadline to complete its initial business combination by one month, from May 27, 2025, to June 27, 2025, according to a recent SEC filing. This extension comes after a $120,000 deposit into the company’s trust account by Squirrel Enlivened (Hong Kong) Technology Limited, as part of an agreement related to a proposed business combination with Squirrel HoldCo and its subsidiaries. According to InvestingPro data, the company’s current ratio of 0.04 indicates significant pressure on short-term liquidity, making this deposit particularly significant.

The deposit enables Horizon Space to utilize one of up to seven one-month extensions that it is allowed by its amended and restated memorandum and articles of association. The extension fee was made in connection with a Business Combination Agreement dated September 16, 2024, which outlines the terms of the proposed merger with Squirrel HoldCo, a Cayman Islands exempted company, and its subsidiaries.

In addition to the deposit, Horizon Space issued an unsecured promissory note to Squirrel HK for the amount of $120,000, dated May 28, 2025. The note does not bear interest and must be paid by the earlier of the business combination’s consummation or the company’s expiry date. The note includes provisions for events of default, which could result in acceleration of the note.

This extension is part of Horizon Space’s ongoing efforts to complete its business combination, which is subject to conditions such as shareholder approval and other closing conditions. The SEC filing also includes forward-looking statements regarding the anticipated benefits and growth of the combined entity post-merger, as well as the ability to meet Nasdaq’s listing standards.

Investors and security holders are advised to read the registration statement and proxy statement/prospectus and other relevant documents filed with the SEC carefully for more detailed information about the proposed business combination and the parties involved. The information provided in this article is based on the company’s SEC filing.
