Item 8.01 Other Events.
On December 11, 2024, Jackson Acquisition Company II (the “Company”) consummated its initial public offering (the “IPO”) of 20,000,000 units (the “Units”). In connection with the closing, the underwriter fully exercised its over-allotment option to purchase 3,000,000 additional Units (the “OA Option”) for an aggregate of 23,000,000 Units sold. Each Unit consists of one Class A ordinary share, par value $0.0001 per share (“Class A Ordinary Share”), of the Company and one right to acquire one-tenth (1/10) of one Class A ordinary share (the “Rights”). The Units were sold at a price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $230,000,000.
Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, the Company completed the private sale of an aggregate of 840,000 private placement units (the “Private Placement Units”) to RJ Healthcare SPAC II, LLC, and Roth Capital Partners, LLC at a purchase price of $10.00 per Private Placement Unit, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $8,400,000. The Private Placement Units are identical to the Units sold in the IPO and OA Option, subject to certain limited exceptions, and will be subject to transfer restrictions until 30 days following the consummation of the Company’s initial business combination. The Private Placement Units were issued pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, as the transactions did not involve a public offering.
A total of $232,300,000, comprised of proceeds from the IPO and the sale of the Private Placement Units, were placed into a segregated trust account located in the United States with Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company acting as trustee. An audited balance sheet as of December 11, 2024 reflecting receipt of the proceeds upon consummation of the IPO and the sale of the Private Placement Units has been issued by the Company and is included as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
