Item 8.01 Other Events.

On July 20, 2021, Black Spade Acquisition Co (the “Company”) consummated its initial public offering (“IPO”) of 15,000,000 units (the “Units”). Each Unit consists of one Class A ordinary share of the Company, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class A Ordinary Shares”), and one-half of one redeemable warrant of the Company (“Warrant”), each whole Warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one Class A Ordinary Share for $11.50 per share. The Units were sold at a price of $10.00 per unit, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $150,000,000.

Substantially concurrently with the closing of the IPO, the Company completed the private sale (the “Private Placement”) of 6,000,000 warrants (the “Private Placement Warrants”) to Black Spade Sponsor LLC at a purchase price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $6,000,000.

A total of $150,000,000, comprised of $147,000,000 of the proceeds from the IPO, including $5,250,000 of the underwriters’ deferred discount, and $3,000,000 of the proceeds of the sale of the Private Placement Warrants, was placed in a U.S.-based trust account at J.P. Morgan Chase Bank, N.A. and then transferred for the duration of the transaction into a segregated trust account at Citibank, NA, with Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company acting as trustee. An audited balance sheet as of July 20, 2021 reflecting receipt of the proceeds upon consummation of the IPO and the Private Placement has been issued by the Company and is included as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
