In a recent move, Plum Acquisition Corp. III, a special purpose acquisition company (SPAC), has announced amendments to its corporate charter following a shareholder vote. The changes, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on January 22, 2025, include an extension of the deadline to complete a business combination and the removal of a clause regarding net tangible assets.
Currently trading at $11.43 with a market capitalization of $120.4 million, the company’s stock has shown resilience with a 9.98% return over the past year. According to InvestingPro analysis, the company maintains a GOOD overall financial health score despite trading at a high earnings multiple.
At the extraordinary general meeting held on January 16, 2025, shareholders approved the amendment to the company’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association. The key change allows the company until July 30, 2025, to finalize a business combination, providing additional time beyond the initial deadline. The board of directors of Plum Acquisition Corp. III retains the discretion to choose an earlier date if deemed appropriate.
Additionally, the shareholders voted to eliminate a provision that required the company to have net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001 immediately before or upon consummation of a business combination. This amendment could potentially broaden the range of merger targets for the company.
The shareholder meeting saw a quorum with approximately 87.82% of the voting power represented in person or by proxy. The proposal to extend the merger deadline received 8,488,253 votes in favor and 479,240 against, with no abstentions or broker non-votes.
