Distinct shells carrying a filed role for this person — not every shell they have ever touched.
SEC-verified vehicles of the same sponsor, predating these roles and carrying none of them. The badge counts them; the figure beside this one does not.
Mergers closed across all 3 — these vehicles and the franchise's earlier ones together.
Announced but not closed, and still hunting — again over all 3.
No closed vehicle here has both a stored price and a filed trust value to score it against.

Sam Lynn is a seasoned accounting and financial advisory professional who currently serves as a director of Berto Acquisition Corp. and has been nominated to the board of Berto Acquisition Corp. II (ticker: GUACU), a special purpose acquisition company that priced an upsized $274 million IPO. He has served on the board of Berto Acquisition Corp. since April 2025, and alongside fellow directors Darla K. Anderson and Constance K. Weaver, he is expected to continue his board role at Berto Acquisition Corp. II following the IPO's anticipated close on May 18, 2026. Based in Fort Worth, Texas, Lynn brings to these SPAC roles nearly a decade of experience in accounting, tax, and management consulting at the partner level.
From 2014 to 2023, Lynn was a partner at WilliamsMarston LLC and Chord Advisors LLC, two firms specializing in accounting advisory, tax, and management consulting services. His work at these firms would have involved complex financial reporting, transaction support, and regulatory compliance matters, experience highly relevant to SPAC governance and the de-SPAC process. Since stepping away from his partner roles in April 2023, Lynn has continued to be active professionally, with his LinkedIn profile describing him as a "Former Partner, Director" based in the Fort Worth area. The available sources do not detail specific education credentials for this Sam Lynn, nor do they enumerate particular deals or exits beyond his SPAC board appointments. His track record centers on his extensive partnership-level tenure at two advisory firms and his transition into SPAC directorship, where he contributes financial and accounting expertise to the Berto platform.
This record is keyed to SEC CIK 0001639748 — 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.
