Keen Vision Acquisition Corp. extends business combination period

Keen Vision Acquisition Corp. (NASDAQ:KVAC), a British Virgin Islands-based special purpose acquisition company with a market capitalization of $215.74 million, announced on Monday that it has entered into a material definitive agreement with its sponsor, KVC Sponsor LLC, to extend the period available to complete a business combination. According to InvestingPro data, the company’s stock is currently trading near its 52-week high at $11.18.

The agreement, which took effect on February 24, 2025, involves the issuance of an unsecured promissory note by Keen Vision Acquisition Corp. to its sponsor in the amount of $200,000. This note is intended to facilitate an extension by depositing the funds into the company’s trust account. The promissory note carries no interest and is set to mature upon the closing of a business combination. Additionally, the sponsor has the option to convert the note into units of the company at a conversion price of $10.00 per unit, identical to those issued during the company’s initial public offering. InvestingPro analysis indicates the company’s current ratio of 0.19 suggests tight liquidity, with short-term obligations exceeding liquid assets.

As a result of this transaction, Keen Vision Acquisition Corp. has successfully extended the deadline to complete a business combination to March 27, 2025. This extension provides the company with additional time to identify and finalize a suitable business combination opportunity.

The financial terms of the promissory note and the details of the extension were made public in a Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 27, 2025. Keen Vision Acquisition Corp.’s securities, including units (KVACU), ordinary shares (KVAC), and warrants (KVACW), are currently traded on The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC.

This strategic move is part of the company’s ongoing efforts to leverage its position and resources to secure a valuable business combination, which is essential for the company’s future growth and value creation for its shareholders. The information disclosed is based on the statement provided in the company’s SEC filing. Despite current liquidity constraints, InvestingPro rates the company’s overall Financial Health as GOOD, with additional insights and metrics available to subscribers.
