Figma Shares Indicated To Open $105/$110
In a significant move within the blank check company space, Quartzsea Acquisition Corporation ("Quartzsea") successfully closed its initial public offering (IPO) on March 19, 2025. The company, which is now listed on The Nasdaq Stock Market under the ticker symbols NASDAQ:QSEA for its ordinary shares and NASDAQ:QSEAR for its rights, announced the sale of 8,280,000 units at $10.00 each, resulting in gross proceeds of $82.8 million. According to InvestingPro data, the stock currently trades at $10.1, giving the company a market capitalization of approximately $75 million.
The IPO’s completion also saw the full exercise of the over-allotment option by the underwriter, leading to the issuance of an additional 1,080,000 units. Each unit issued comprises one ordinary share, with a par value of $0.0001, and one right, which entitles the holder to receive one-fifth of an ordinary share upon the execution of Quartzsea’s initial business combination.
Concurrent with the IPO, Quartzsea conducted a private placement where its sponsor, Blue Jay Investment LLC, purchased 231,900 private placement units, contributing an additional $2.31 million to the company’s funds.
The net proceeds from the IPO and the private placement, totaling $82.8 million, have been placed into a trust account for the benefit of Quartzsea’s public shareholders. This financial maneuver is designed to support the company’s strategic plans, including its search for a target company for a business combination. InvestingPro analysis reveals the company’s current ratio of 0.65, indicating that short-term obligations exceed liquid assets.
