August H. Roth is an Independent Director of ACP Holdings Acquisition Corp., a blank check company that priced its $200 million IPO on April 7, 2026, with Roth Capital Partners serving as sole book-running manager. ACP Holdings Acquisition Corp., founded on January 28, 2026, is headquartered in the United States and features an 18-month SPAC tenor with 100.5% of IPO cash held in trust. Roth serves alongside fellow directors Sean Wallace and Jonathan Urfrig on the company's board, and he filed an initial Form 3 reporting his status as a reporting person for the company's securities. He consented to being named as a director nominee in connection with the SPAC's formation.
Since 2013, Roth has served as Chief Investment Officer of FCR Holdings, his family office and private investment platform, which invests across public equities and credit as well as real estate, private equity, and venture capital. Prior to establishing his family office, he was an Investment Partner at Coalition Investment Partners, where he focused on capital solutions in both the public and private markets. Roth also founded and launched Hylas Capital Management LP, a value-oriented credit and equity hedge fund, where he served as Chief Investment Officer as well as credit and equity analyst. SEC Form D filings confirm his role as an Executive Officer of Hylas Capital Partners, L.P. and Hylas Capital Master Fund, Ltd., with nine filings recorded between July 2010 and June 2011.
Roth's earlier career includes a tenure as an equity and credit analyst at JANA Partners LLC, where he was responsible for idea generation and analysis of special situations across energy, power, and TMT (technology, media, and telecom) investments across the capital structure. While at JANA, he served on numerous creditors' committees and originated and led several successful concentrated equity investments. He began his career as a research analyst at Salomon Smith Barney, focusing on high yield corporate credit research, and subsequently worked at Citigroup in their Global Markets group. His LinkedIn profile lists him as a Principal at JANA Partners LLC and places him in New York, which is consistent with his SEC Form D filings listing his location as New York, NY.
Roth holds a Bachelor of Arts degree from Cornell University. His career spans deep expertise in credit analysis, equity research, special situations investing, and capital structure analysis, with a track record that includes originating and leading concentrated equity investments and serving on creditors' committees during restructuring processes. His broad investment experience across public and private markets, combined with his family office leadership role, positions him as a seasoned investment professional with multi-asset-class expertise spanning hedge funds, private equity, venture capital, and real estate.
This record is keyed to SEC CIK 0001726889 — the identifier this person files under in their own name. Every vehicle above is a filing made under that CIK, so “the same person on two shells” is a fact about an SEC identifier rather than about a name that happens to match.
Roles are the strings the filings used, in the order they were filed. Nothing on this page ranks them, infers seniority, or offers a reason why any two of these names recur — a recurrence is a count, and the filings that produced it are linked beside every row. We also hold 3 institutional-holder rows on these vehicles, under 3 distinct name strings, and none of them is counted across vehicles: that table has no CIK column, and matching holders by name would merge firms that are not the same firm.
