Snow Rothschild Acquisition Corp. has successfully completed its initial public offering, selling 20 million units at $10 per unit and raising a total of $200 million, the company announced.
Each unit issued in the offering contains one Class A ordinary share together with one-half of a redeemable warrant. When combined into whole warrants, holders are able to purchase one Class A ordinary share at a strike price of $11.50, subject to customary adjustments. The company placed the full $10 per unit into a trust account, appointing Continental Stock Transfer & Trust as trustee for those funds.
The newly issued units commenced trading on the Nasdaq Stock Market on June 9, 2026 under the symbol "ISNRU." The issuer indicated that the Class A ordinary shares and the warrants underlying the units are expected to begin trading separately on Nasdaq under the ticker symbols "ISNR" for the shares and "ISNRW" for the warrants.
Santander served as the sole book-running manager for the offering. As part of the underwriting arrangement, the company granted the underwriter a 45-day option to purchase up to an additional 3 million units at the offering price less the underwriting discount. This option exists to cover any over-allotments that may occur in connection with the offering.
The Securities and Exchange Commission declared the registration statement for the units and underlying securities effective on June 8, 2026, clearing the way for the public distribution and trading activity that followed.
Snow Rothschild Acquisition Corp. is structured as a blank check company formed to pursue a merger, acquisition or similar business combination. While the company may consider opportunities across any industry or geography, it has stated an intention to concentrate on sectors where its management team has prior experience, with a particular focus on industrial assets.
The management team identified in the offering documents includes Ian Snow as Chief Executive Officer and director, Nathaniel Rothschild as Chairman, and William Chai as Chief Financial Officer.
