Pershing Square Tontine Holdings, Ltd. (NYSE:PSTH) CEO Bill Ackman today issued the following letter: Dear Pershing Square Tontine Holdings, Ltd. Shareholder, On July 22, 2020, Pershing Square Tontine Holdings, Ltd. completed a $4 billion IPO on the New York Stock Exchange. We designed PSTH to be the most investor and merger-friendly SPAC at a time when we believed the COVID-19 pandemic would continue to disrupt capital markets providing PSTH with an opportunity to merge with and take public a large capitalization private company that met our investment criteria for business quality, durable growth, and an attractive valuation. Two years later, we are returning our $4 billion of capital

Pershing Square SPARC Holdings, Ltd. ("SPARC"), an affiliate of Pershing Square Tontine Holdings, Ltd. (NYSE:PSTH), notes the withdrawal of the New York Stock Exchange's proposed amendment to its listing rules that would have allowed SPARC warrants ("SPARs" or generically "subscription warrants") to trade on the NYSE.1 In view of the Securities and Exchange Commission's recently proposed rule changes and policy guidance with respect to special purpose acquisition vehicles, we understand that the approval of the NYSE rule change as currently proposed would not likely have occurred at this time. By withdrawing the proposed rule, the NYSE preserves the ability for the approval of a revised ru

Pershing Square Tontine Holdings, Ltd. (NYSE:PSTH) today released the following excerpt from CEO Bill Ackman's letter to shareholders contained in the 2021 Pershing Square Holdings, Ltd. Semiannual Financial Statements. Pershing Square Tontine Holdings, Ltd. ("PSTH") The market value of SPACs in general and PSTH, in particular, declined since the beginning of the year, which along with PSTH's failure to consummate the Universal Music Group transaction likely contributed to PSTH's stock price declining to a level approximating its $20 per share cash in trust. On Friday last week, PSTH's share price declined to slightly below NAV for the first time. Nearly all pre-merger SPACs have traded

Pershing Square Tontine Holdings, Ltd. (NYSE:PSTH) CEO Bill Ackman today issued the following letter. August 19, 2021 Dear Pershing Square Tontine Holdings, Ltd. Shareholder, A purported shareholder filed a lawsuit on August 17th claiming that PSTH has been operating as an illegal investment company because, among other claims, PSTH invested its IPO proceeds in securities (short-term Treasurys and money market funds that own short-term Treasurys). This is of course something all SPACs do as they preserve funds necessary to complete their initial business combinations. As the law professors who brought the case should very well know (as both are securities law experts), holding cash and g

The latest round of 13F filings from institutional investors is out, revealing to the world the stocks that some of the richest and most successful investors have been buying and selling. Takeaways From 13F Season: Investors who follow particular fund managers can easily look up what each was buying and selling in the quarter, but other investors may be more interested in overall themes from 13F filings. The first quarter of 2022 was a brutal quarter for the S&P 500, and investors were likely interested in what top managers were buying and selling heading into the second quarter.

Corporates and their most prominent investors are at odds over new regulations meant to "modernize" how shareholders report their holdings, reports Financial Times. In February, the Securities and Exchange Commission proposed new rules to increase transparency in stock markets by shortening the 10-day window to 5 days for investors to reveal when they have built a stake of over 5% in a company.  The rules would also clarify the definition of an investor "group." Currently, the regulatory framework does not require proof of an agreement between two or more persons as a prerequisite to establishing the existence of a group. But some courts have suggested that a group can only be formed if a

The rollout of the Stripe technology, beginning in North America, is expected to commence in the second half of 2022. Stripe’s platform will be a “key part of the tech stack” as Ford develops e-commerce offerings across product and service spectrum, as per the statement.  The service of the payment processor is expected “to dr

While special purpose acquisition companies have been around for years, 2021 became the year that they took over the market in terms of IPOs and as a conversation topic. Over 600 new SPACs went public in 2021 and over 150 deals were announced last year. Here’s a look back at how the SPAC market shaped up, with thoughts from two well-respected names in the SPAC industry.
