… and 5 more on the calendar.

A long-stop is the charter’s outside date for completing a combination. It pays nothing: the trust comes back only if no deal closes by then. The window to hand shares back for cash has already closed on these — there is nothing left to claim at the date shown.

In the filings

10-Q filed 2026-08-21 — the auditors raised going-concern doubt · trust $82.9M→$83.2M (+0.4%)

vs prior 10-Q 2026-05-14: going-concern doubt APPEARED.

trust $82.9M→$83.2M (+0.4%).

Why it matters: This filing confirms the successful completion of the SPAC merger, establishing the new public company's capital structure, ownership concentration (with Tiramani entities holding ~96% voting power), and post-cash liquidity derived from the trust account after redemptions and forward purchase settlements.

The pot grew, and so did each share's claim on it — interest, with nobody leaving.

The auditor’s going-concern sentence appeared in this filing and was not in the last one. A SPAC has to say it may not survive twelve months once its own deadline falls inside the auditor’s horizon — it is about the calendar, not the bank account, and the cash above is still there.

Both columns are filed figures, compared against the 10-Q of Thursday 14 May. Cash behind each share is those two figures divided.

FGMC dossier 0001493152-26-039614opens on sec.gov in a new tab

10-K filed 2026-08-21 — trust $125.0M→$34.3M (-72.5%) · deadline 2025-12-15→2026-09-16

vs prior 10-K 2025-04-15: trust $125.0M→$34.3M (-72.5%).

deadline 2025-12-15→2026-09-16.

Why it matters: Investors must track the new September 16, 2026 redemption deadline as the final opportunity to exit before potential liquidation. The massive reduction in public share count (from ~1.18 million to ~75,891) significantly alters the capital structure and voting power dynamics for the remaining holders ahead of the Btab merger.

Why it matters: For redemption mechanics, the trust value is stated as ~$10.93 per share as of June 30, but the actual redemption price will be calculated two business days prior to closing.

425 filed 2026-08-21 — SEC Form 425 prospectus communication consisting of a verbatim transcript of a third-party media interview hosted by John Koetsier for Humanoid Daily…

Why it matters: The transcript supplies unfiltered commercial validation that may influence shareholder redemption calculus, as management explicitly contrasts Agility’s revenue-generating, audit-ready posture against peer companies 'raising billions of dollars at eye-popping valuations' up to '20, 40, 60 billion dollars or more' driven by 'marketing vi….

How this brief is made

  • Composed deterministically from stored primary-sourced rows — no LLM, no live fetching of facts, $0 per run.
  • Trust NAV accreted at the 3-mo T-bill par yield 4.00% (treasury.gov, 2026-09-10); accreted values are ESTIMATES and labeled as such.
  • Broker action dates count ~2 real NYSE trading days before the deadline (weekends and market holidays excluded) — still verify with your broker, whose cutoff may be earlier.
  • 48 filings were scanned for this window.
  • Items tagged "coverage" are database-ingestion events (a row was captured), not market events — the underlying facts may predate the window.
  • Dated events are summarised on this page and never turned into an instruction. An outside date is the contractual long-stop: it pays nothing, and the trust comes back only if no combination closes. Where the record holds no dated redemption event either way, the page says so instead of assuming one.

Every figure on this page is taken from a filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and links to it. Estimates are labelled as estimates. Prices are last trades, not quotes. This is information, not investment advice.

This is a dated edition — the record of one day, kept at its own address. Editions are retained for 60 days.
