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 2 — these vehicles and the franchise's earlier ones together.
Announced but not closed, and still hunting — again over all 2.
No closed vehicle here has both a stored price and a filed trust value to score it against.

**Matthew J. Sweeney** serves as an independent director of Mercator Acquisition Corp. (NASDAQ: MRCO/MRCOU), a special purpose acquisition company headquartered at 85 Washington Street, Norwalk, Connecticut. Mercator Acquisition Corp. priced its initial public offering at $150 million in July 2026 and subsequently closed the IPO at $172.5 million. Sweeney was appointed to the board alongside fellow directors James Nash and Stephen Schwartz, with Shawn Matthews serving as Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. The sponsor entity, Mercator Investor Holdings, LLC, is managed by Matthews. Sweeney filed his initial statement of beneficial ownership (Form 3) on July 8, 2026, establishing his baseline insider disclosure as a director with no officer title and not designated as a ten percent owner. On the same date, pursuant to a securities purchase agreement between Mercator Investor Holdings, LLC and Sweeney, the sponsor assigned him 25,000 Class B ordinary shares at a per-share value of $0.003, for a total transaction value of approximately $75.00. These Class B shares are subject to anti-dilution adjustments, may be forfeited under certain conditions tied to his continued board service, and will automatically convert into Class A ordinary shares on a one-for-one basis upon the consummation of Mercator's initial business combination. As of the most recent filings, Sweeney held 25,000 Class B ordinary shares directly.

This record is keyed to SEC CIK 0001488369 — 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.
