DALLAS, Dec. 17, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Level Field Capital today highlighted the successful launch of LF Capital Acquisition Corp. II (NASDAQ:LFAC) (the "Company"), a special purpose acquisition company with a seasoned leadership team that they believe has a unique ability to source opportunities in high-growth markets and an innovative, compelling offering structure.
LF Capital Acquisition Corp. II completed its initial public offering on the NASDAQ on November 19, 2021. The Company intends to focus its search for a target business to merge with in the financial technology or services, digital asset, technology or disruptive consumer sectors, though it may pursue a business combination target in any business or industry.
The Company is led by an experienced Board and management team with a proven track record of investing in, operating and scaling private and public companies across market cycles, as well as meaningful strategic and transactional expertise. The team also has prior SPAC experience, having launched LF Capital Acquisition Corp., and subsequently completed its de-SPAC merger with Landsea Homes in January 2021.
LF Capital Acquisition Corp. II is differentiated by its innovative structure, under which warrants qualify for equity accounting in a manner that the Company's reported GAAP earnings, as well as the GAAP earnings of any company that it acquires, will not be subject to fluctuations based on changes in the market price of the Company's common stock. This should facilitate a clearer valuation for the target company. Notably, this was accomplished in a manner that the Company believes maintains the attractiveness of the warrants to investors.
Scott Reed, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, said, "Building on the success of our previous SPAC transaction, we are pleased to launch LF Capital Acquisition Corp. II and begin outreach to potential target companies that are poised to disrupt the industries in which they operate. We believe our Board and management team have the proven investment acumen, robust sourcing channel networks and broad market insights to target high-growth companies and provide them the guidance and resources they need to unlock their full potential in the public markets. We look forward to identifying and executing a transaction with a target company that will drive innovation and deliver significant value to shareholders."
Mr. Reed continued, "We are also pleased to have achieved an innovative structure which provides target companies and shareholders potential benefits. As the SPAC market continues to evolve, we believe this is an important step forward in establishing a more shareholder-friendly platform for investing."
