AUSTIN, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--SilverBox Corp III (the “Company”) today announced the pricing of its upsized initial public offering of 12,000,000 units at a price of $10.00 per unit. The units are expected to be listed for trading on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol “SBXC.U” beginning February 28, 2023. Each unit consists of one share of the Company’s Class A common stock and one-third of one redeemable warrant. Each whole warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one share of Class A common stock at a price of $11.50 per share. Once the securities comprising the units begin separate trading, the Company expects that its Class A common stock and warrants will be listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbols ‘‘SBXC’’ and ‘‘SBXC WS,’’ respectively. The offering is expected to close on March 2, 2023, subject to customary closing conditions.
The Company was formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses. The Company may pursue an initial business combination in any business or industry but intends to focus its search on a target business in an industry where it believes the expertise of its management team and its advisory group will provide it with a competitive advantage in completing a successful initial business combination.
