Kernel Group Holdings filed an investor presentation promoting its proposed merger with AIRO Group Holdings, an air mobility, autonomy & aerospace platform. The transaction calls for a new Delaware holding company, AIRO Group, to acquire both Kernel and AIRO.
AIRO’s audited gross profit margin more than doubled from 2022-2023, according to the presentation.
The deal was announced in March 2023 at a pro forma enterprise value of approximately $847 million, assuming no redemptions.
