## Customers

The company does not currently sell products or services to operating customers and had generated no operating revenue through June 30, 2026. Its primary counterparties are prospective target businesses seeking access to public-market capital, the Sponsor and affiliated financing parties, and public and private investors that provide transaction capital. Target companies may be attracted by the potential to combine with an already listed acquisition vehicle rather than pursuing a conventional initial public offering.

- **Prospective Business Combination Targets** (primary) — Private or operating businesses seeking a merger, acquisition or public-market access through the company.
- **Public Investors** (primary) — Investors purchasing public units and shares for exposure to the Trust Account and a future transaction.
- **Sponsor and Affiliates** (secondary) — Osprey Acquisition Sponsor III, LLC and related parties providing founder capital, loans and private placement funding.
- **Capital Markets Intermediaries** (secondary) — Underwriters and placement participants supporting the initial offering and potential Business Combination.

- Prospective targets seeking a public-market listing
- Businesses requiring acquisition or growth capital
- Public investors purchasing units and ordinary shares
- Sponsor and affiliates providing transaction support
- Underwriters and placement participants supporting issuance

## Geography

Osprey Acquisition Corp. III is incorporated in the Cayman Islands and accesses capital markets through a U.S. public offering structure. Its acquisition mandate is not limited to a particular geography or industry, so the eventual operating footprint will depend on the selected target. The company had no disclosed operating revenue by country or regional revenue mix in the available reports.

- Cayman Islands incorporation and legal structure
- U.S. public offering and investor base
- No industry or geographic acquisition limitation
- Future exposure depends on selected target business
- No country-level revenue disclosed

## Strategy

The central strategy is to identify and complete an initial Business Combination with a suitable business in any industry or geography. Management plans to use funds outside the Trust Account for target identification, due diligence, travel, document review and transaction negotiations, while substantially all Trust Account funds are intended for the combination. The company may use cash, shares, debt or a combination of consideration, allowing transaction structure to be tailored to the target but creating execution and financing dependencies.

- **Identify a suitable acquisition target** (short-term) — The company has no operating business and depends on completing a Business Combination to create ongoing operations.
- **Execute transaction due diligence and negotiations** (short-term) — Thorough evaluation is required to limit the risk of acquiring an unsuitable or overvalued target.
- **Secure adequate transaction financing** (medium-term) — A combination may require additional equity or debt if redemptions reduce available cash or transaction costs exceed estimates.
- **Complete the initial Business Combination** (medium-term) — Closing a transaction is necessary for the company to transition from a cash-and-search vehicle into an operating enterprise.

- Screen businesses across industries and geographies
- Use due diligence to assess prospective targets
- Deploy Trust Account funds toward a completed transaction
- Tailor consideration using cash, shares or debt
- Preserve operating funds for transaction execution

## Risks

The principal risk is failure to identify or complete an acceptable Business Combination within the required SPAC timetable, which would limit the company’s ability to generate operating revenue and may result in liquidation. Available working capital can be insufficient if target-search and transaction costs exceed estimates, while substantial shareholder redemptions or difficult financing conditions could reduce funds available for a transaction. Because the eventual target may operate in any industry or geography, investors will also inherit concentrated target-specific regulatory, market, operational and valuation risks after closing.

- **Failure to complete a Business Combination** [critical] — The company has no operating business and depends on finding and closing a suitable transaction to create continuing operations.
- **Insufficient working capital** [high] — Search, due diligence, legal and public-company costs may exceed funds held outside the Trust Account.
- **Shareholder redemption pressure** [high] — Significant redemptions can reduce cash available to fund the target and force additional financing.
- **Target valuation and due diligence risk** [high] — A transaction may involve uncertain forecasts, incomplete information or an unsuitable valuation, particularly because the mandate spans any industry.
- **Financing and dilution risk** [medium] — Additional securities or debt may be required to complete a transaction, potentially diluting existing holders or increasing financial obligations.
- **Regulatory and market risk at target** [high] — The eventual operating company may face sector-specific regulation, competition, economic cycles or geopolitical exposure that cannot yet be assessed.

- No operating revenue before a completed Business Combination
- Target search may fail or take longer than permitted
- Due diligence and transaction costs may exceed estimates
- Shareholder redemptions may reduce available acquisition capital
- Future target could add industry or geographic concentration
- Additional debt or equity may dilute investors or add leverage

## Accounting

The most important accounting issues are the classification and measurement of public and private placement units, Trust Account investments, offering costs, sponsor-related loans and potential redemption obligations. The company reported no critical accounting estimates as of June 30, 2026, but accounting judgments can affect whether costs are expensed, deferred or allocated to equity and how liabilities are measured. Deferred underwriting fees of $12.789 million are contingent on completion of the initial Business Combination and therefore create a material transaction-accounting consideration.

- **Public and private placement unit classification** — Can create earnings volatility and change reported liabilities or equity.
- **Trust Account investments** — Affects non-operating income and the amount available for redemption or acquisition.
- **Offering cost allocation** — Changes reported expenses, additional paid-in capital and net proceeds.
- **Deferred underwriting fees** — Creates a material transaction obligation that may reduce proceeds available at closing.
- **Sponsor and related-party financing** — Can affect related-party liabilities, dilution and post-combination capitalization.
- **Redemption and liquidation obligations** — Can materially change cash, temporary equity or liability balances.

- Unit and warrant classification can affect liabilities and equity
- Trust Account investments generate interest or dividend income
- Offering costs may be allocated between equity and liabilities
- Deferred underwriting fees depend on transaction completion
- Sponsor loans and related-party funding require careful disclosure
- Redemption features can affect reported liabilities and equity
