It has been searching for a target in the consumer and consumer-related products and services industries and entered into a business combination agreement with Suncrete, Inc. in October 2025. ## Products & services • SPAC initial public offering and trust account structure • Search and evaluation of acquisition targets • Business combination execution and merger structuring • Public-company listing and capital access via NYSE • Sponsor-funded extension and working capital support - **SPAC formation and capital pool** (0%) — Public shell company capital raised and held in trust for a future business combination. - **Target search and due diligence** (0%) — Evaluation of potential acquisition targets in consumer and related industries. - **Business combination transaction services** (0%) — Structuring and completing the merger or acquisition that will create the operating company. - **Sponsor support and extensions** (0%) — Monthly extension funding and working capital advances from the sponsor. - SPAC initial public offering and trust account structure - Search and evaluation of acquisition targets - Business combination execution and merger structuring - Public-company listing and capital access via NYSE - Sponsor-funded extension and working capital support ## Customers The company does not sell products or services to end customers in the normal sense; its counterparties are investors, a sponsor, and a future merger target. Public shareholders provide the capital base, while the sponsor funds extensions and working capital to keep the SPAC alive until a deal closes. The eventual operating business will determine the true customer base after the business combination. - **Public shareholders** (primary) — Buy redeemable Class A shares and warrants for exposure to a future deal and optional redemption value. - **Sponsor** (primary) — Provides extension payments and working capital loans to preserve deal optionality and listing status. - **Business combination target** (primary) — Sells the operating business into the SPAC structure in exchange for public-market access. - **Underwriters and service providers** (secondary) — Support the IPO, compliance, legal, accounting, and transaction process. - Public shareholders supply IPO capital and hold redeemable shares - Sponsor provides extension and working capital financing - Future merger target is the counterparty in the business combination - NYSE and regulators are key stakeholders because listing status matters - Post-merger customers will depend on the acquired operating business ## Geography Haymaker Acquisition Corp. 4 is incorporated in the Cayman Islands and operates as a U.S.-listed SPAC on the NYSE. Its business is primarily U.S.-centric from a capital markets and regulatory standpoint, while the eventual target could be located anywhere, subject to trade-policy and listing considerations. - Incorporated in the Cayman Islands - Listed and regulated through the NYSE in the United States - Capital markets activity is centered in the U.S. - Target search may include domestic or foreign businesses - Tariffs and trade policy can affect target selection ## Strategy The core strategy is to complete an initial business combination before the deadline while preserving listing status and minimizing redemptions. Management is focused on consumer and consumer-related products and services, and has already signed the Suncrete business combination agreement. - **Complete the Suncrete business combination** (short-term) — The SPAC must close a deal to avoid liquidation and create an operating public company. - **Maintain listing and extend deadline if needed** (short-term) — Failure to meet NYSE timing requirements could trigger suspension or delisting. - **Target consumer-oriented businesses** (medium-term) — The stated search focus narrows the acquisition universe and shapes diligence. - Close an initial business combination before the combination deadline - Focus on consumer and consumer-related products and services - Use sponsor extensions to preserve transaction optionality - Manage redemptions to protect trust capital and NYSE listing - Navigate SEC and NYSE SPAC rule requirements ## Risks The company’s main risk is that it may fail to complete a business combination before the deadline, which would force liquidation and redemption of public shares. It also faces SPAC-specific regulatory, listing, and execution risks, including SEC review delays, redemption pressure, and the possibility that tariffs or trade policy changes make a target less attractive or harder to close. - **Failure to complete a business combination by the deadline** [critical] — If no deal closes, the company must liquidate and return trust assets to public shareholders. - **Redemption pressure and capital erosion** [high] — Shareholder redemptions reduce trust cash and can impair the ability to fund a transaction and maintain listing requirements. - **Regulatory and SEC review delays** [medium] — SPAC transactions require extensive filings and review, which can delay closing and increase costs. - **Tariff and trade policy exposure at target level** [medium] — A target with import/export dependence may become less attractive or underperform after closing. - Failure to close a deal could force liquidation of the trust account - Redemptions can shrink capital and threaten NYSE listing status - SEC review delays can slow or block the transaction process - Tariffs and trade policy can reduce target attractiveness - SPAC rule changes increase disclosure burden and transaction cost ## Accounting The company has no operating revenue, so reported results are driven by interest income on trust investments and public-company expenses. Key accounting judgments center on redeemable Class A shares, sponsor notes, and accruals for advisory services, all of which affect equity classification, liabilities, and net income presentation. - **Redeemable ordinary shares / temporary equity** — Affects balance sheet equity presentation and redemption value adjustments - **Trust account interest income** — Drives net income despite no operating revenue - **Sponsor promissory notes and accrued fees** — Affects liabilities, cash needs, and post-closing settlement obligations - Redeemable Class A shares are carried in temporary equity - Trust-account interest drives non-operating income - Extension and working-capital notes create sponsor liabilities - Advisory fees are accrued until a business combination closes - Redemption value changes can move through equity accounts --- *Last updated: 2026-09-24T11:52:04.821231+00:00*
