Note 1-Organization and Plan of Business Operations
Organization and General
GigCapital4, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in the state of Delaware on December 4, 2020. The Company was founded as a blank check company or special purpose acquisitions company (“SPAC”), formed by an affiliate of the serial SPAC issuer GigCapital Global, for the purpose of entering into a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses (the “Business Combination”). The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”).
On February 8, 2021, the Company effected a 1.2:1 stock split of its common stock. All common stock share numbers and prices have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the stock split.
As of February 12, 2021, the Company had not commenced any operations. All activity for the period from December 4, 2020 (date of inception) through February 12, 2021 relates to the Company’s formation and the initial public offering (the “Offering”) (Note 3). The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after completion of the Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company will generate non-operating income in the form of interest income on cash and cash equivalents from the proceeds derived from the Offering. The Company has selected December 31 as its fiscal year end.
On February 8, 2021, the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) declared the Company’s initial Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No 333-252315), in connection with the Offering of $260.0 million, effective. The Company subsequently filed, on February 8, 2021, a registration statement on Form S-1MEF (File No. 333-252867) pursuant to Rule 462(b) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, which was effective immediately upon filing, in order to increase the size of the initial public offering (“IPO”) to $312.0 million.
The Company entered into an underwriting agreement on February 8, 2021 to conduct the Offering of 31,200,000 units (the “Public Units”) in the amount of $312.0 million in gross proceeds, with a 45-day option provided to the Underwriters (as defined below) to purchase up to 4,680,000 additional Public Units solely to cover over-allotments, if any, in the amount of up to $46.8 million in additional gross proceeds. Each Public Unit consists of one share of the Company’s common stock (a “Public Share”), $0.0001 par value (“Common Stock”), and one-third (1/3) of one redeemable warrant (a “Public Warrant”). Each whole Public Warrant is exercisable for one share of Common Stock at a price of $11.50 per full share.
On February 11, 2021, the Company consummated the IPO of 35,880,000 units (the “Units”), including the issuance of 4,680,000 Units as a result of the underwriters’ exercise in full of their over-allotment option. The Units were sold at a price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $358,800,000.
As further discussed in Note 4, simultaneously with the closing of the Offering, the Company consummated the private placement (“Private Placement”) of 1,099,600 units (the “Private Placement Units”) at a price of $10.00 per Private Placement Unit. The Company’s sponsor, GigAcquisitions4, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Founder”), purchased 850,000 Private Placement Units and Oppenheimer & Co. Inc. (“Oppenheimer”) and Nomura Securities International, Inc. (“Nomura”), (collectively, the “Underwriters”) purchased 249,600 Private Placement Units in the aggregate. The Private Placement generated aggregate gross proceeds of $10,996,000 consisting of $8,500,000 from the sale of the Private Placement Units to the Founder and $2,496,000 from the sale of the Private Placement Units to the Underwriters.
Following the closing of the Offering, net proceeds in the amount of $351,624,000 from the sale of the Public Units in the Offering and proceeds in the amount of $7,176,000 from the sale of Private Placement Units, for a total of $358,800,000, were placed in a trust account (“Trust Account”) (discussed below).
Transaction costs amounted to $20,399,474, consisting of $7,176,000 of underwriting fees, $12,558,000 of deferred underwriting fees and $665,474 of Offering costs. The Company’s remaining cash after payment of the Offering costs is held outside of the Trust Account for working capital purposes.
The Trust Account
The funds in the Trust Account have been invested only in U.S. government treasury bills with a maturity of one hundred and eighty-five (185) days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 which invest only in direct U.S. government obligations. Funds will remain in the Trust Account until the earlier of (i) the consummation of the Business Combination or (ii) the distribution of the Trust Account as described below. The remaining proceeds from the Offering outside the Trust Account may be used to pay for business, legal and accounting due diligence expenses on acquisition targets and continuing general and administrative expenses.
The Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides that, other than the withdrawal of interest to pay taxes none of the funds held in the Trust Account will be released until the earlier of: (i) the completion of the Business Combination; (ii) the redemption of 100% of the Public Shares included in the Public Units sold in the Offering if the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within 24 months from the closing of the Offering; or (iii) the redemption of the Public Shares in connection with a stockholder vote to amend the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation to modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to redeem 100% of its Public Shares if it does not complete the Business Combination within 24 months from the closing of the Offering
