Micah B. Kaplan serves as Co-Chief Executive Officer of Fortress Value Acquisition Corp. V (NASDAQ: FVAV), a blank check company incorporated in the Cayman Islands that priced its IPO on February 25, 2026, raising $250 million through the sale of 25 million shares at $10.00 each, with Deutsche Bank Securities serving as left lead underwriter. Kaplan shares the co-CEO role with Andrew Stroud, while the sponsor team is chaired by Andrew A. McKnight. The SPAC is headquartered at 1345 Avenue of the Americas, 46th Floor, New York, New York 10105. Kaplan's involvement with Fortress-sponsored SPACs extends well beyond FVAV: he has served as Chief Operating Officer of Fortress Value Acquisition Corp. (FVAC), Fortress Value Acquisition Corp. II (FAII), and has been associated with Fortress Value Acquisition Corp. III (FVT) and Fortress Value Acquisition Corp. IV (FVIV) as well. Across these four SPAC vehicles, aggregate capital deployed totals approximately $1.4 billion, with $800 million currently active or searching and a merger completion rate of 50 percent. Notable SPAC transactions include the Fortress Value Acquisition Corp. II combination in the outpatient physical therapy sector (announced, approximately $1.5 billion deal value) and the original Fortress Value Acquisition Corp. combination in rare earth mining with MP Materials Corp (approximately $1.0 billion deal value), the latter of which completed successfully and now trades under ticker MP. Frequent associates across these deals include Joshua A. Pack, Andrew A. McKnight, Daniel N. Bass, Alexander P. Gillette, and Marc Furstein, with Deutsche Bank Securities, BofA Securities, Morgan Stanley, PJT Partners, and RBC Capital Markets serving as recurring underwriters.

This record is keyed to SEC CIK 0001810618 — 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 51 institutional-holder rows on these vehicles, under 27 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.
