Blue World Acquisition today announced a May 28 meeting for shareholders to vote on the proposed merger with TOYO Solar, an indirect subsidiary of Fuji Solar.
The redemption deadline is May 23.
TOYO focuses on solar photovoltaic products in Southeast Asia. The company plans to invest $350 million in a cell factory in Phu Tho Province, Vietnam.
Terms call for the SPAC to issue 7,923,658 ordinary shares, 5,005,672 warrants and 5,005,672 shares issuable upon the exercise of TOYO warrants.
Blue World raised $92 million in a February 2022 IPO, although redemptions since then have left it with about $41 million in trust. The SPAC last month announced a $6 million PIPE to support the TOYO deal.
Additional deal terms include an earnout escrow of 13 million shares. If TOYO posts a net profit of at least $41 million by December 2024, the shares in escrow would vest and be released to Fuji Solar. Read more.
