  • Columbus Circle Capital Corp. I (CCCMU, Financial) successfully completed an upsized IPO, raising $250 million.
  • Each unit was priced at $10, consisting of one Class A ordinary share and half of a redeemable warrant.
  • The IPO proceeds are placed in a trust account, securing funds for public shareholders.

Columbus Circle Capital Corp. I (NASDAQ: CCCMU), a special purpose acquisition company (SPAC), has successfully raised $250 million through an upsized initial public offering (IPO). The company sold 25 million units at $10 per unit, including 3 million units from the partial exercise of the underwriters' over-allotment option. This upsized offering reflects strong market demand despite the broader challenges in the SPAC market.

Each unit in the offering consists of one Class A ordinary share and one-half of a redeemable warrant. Each whole warrant permits the holder to purchase one Class A ordinary share at a price of $11.50. As per standard SPAC practice, the entire $250 million of IPO and private placement proceeds have been placed in a trust account for the benefit of public shareholders, providing a secure investment until a business combination is realized.

Columbus Circle Capital Corp. I's units commenced trading on the NASDAQ under the ticker symbol "CCCMU" on May 16, 2025. Once the securities begin separate trading, the Class A shares and warrants will trade under the symbols "CCCM" and "CCCMW," respectively. Cohen & Company Capital Markets led the offering as the lead book-running manager, with Clear Street LLC as the joint book-runner.

With this successful IPO, Columbus Circle Capital is now positioned to identify and complete a promising business combination in the next 18-24 months, guided by a management team led by CEO Gary Quin.
