TKK Symphony Acquisition Corporation Announces Closing of Underwriters’ Over-Allotment Option in Connection with its Initial Public Offering

 

New York, August 22, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- TKK Symphony Acquisition Corporation (NASDAQ: TKKSU, the “Company”) announced today the closing of the issuance of an additional 3,000,000 units pursuant to the underwriters’ over-allotment option in connection with its initial public offering. The offering was priced at $10.00 per unit, generating additional gross proceeds of $30,000,000.

 

The Company’s units began trading on The NASDAQ Capital Market (“NASDAQ”) on August 16, 2018 and trade under the ticker symbol “TKKSU”. Each unit consists of one ordinary share, one warrant to purchase one half of one ordinary share at a price of $11.50 per whole share, and one right to receive one-tenth of one ordinary share upon the consummation of the Company’s initial business combination. Once the securities comprising the units begin separate trading, the ordinary shares, rights and warrants are expected to be listed on NASDAQ under the symbols “TKKS,” “TKKSR,” and “TKKSW,” respectively.

 

Of the proceeds received from the consummation of the initial public offering (as well as the exercise of the over-allotment option) and simultaneous private placements of units, $250,000,000 (or $10.00 per unit sold in the public offering) was placed in trust. An unaudited balance sheet of the Company as of August 22, 2018 reflecting receipt of the proceeds upon consummation of the initial public offering (as well as the exercise of the over-allotment option) and the private placements will be included as an exhibit to a Current Report on Form 8-K to be filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
