SpacBrain’s read

Trust settled

The deal closed — SPAC shares became the target's shares, so there is no trust left to redeem (nobody missed a window; holders who wanted cash elected it at the vote).


In plain terms

What it is
A SPAC from Alussa Energy Sponsor LLC, listed on NYSE in November 2019.
What it's doing now
It agreed in June 2021 to buy FREYR AS, a Battery cell manufacturing company. That purchase completed, and it stopped being a SPAC — the shares became shares in the business it bought.
What you should know
This SPAC has finished. The purchase completed, and the shares became shares in the company it bought — anyone who wanted the cash instead asked for it at the vote, so there is no cash left here to claim and no deadline left to miss.

Cash held per sharenot filed for this window

This vehicle has finished, so there is no window to file a cash-per-share figure for and none will follow. No estimate is shown in its place.

Next date that mattersno dated event on file

Nothing dated is on file. That is an absence in the record, not a statement that nothing is coming.

Yield to redemption

Nothing left to redeem — no yield to compute.

This SPAC has finished — its trust was paid back or used to close the deal, so there is nothing left to redeem and no yield to compute. A yield to redemption is a claim that you can hand these shares back for the trust cash. That account is closed, so this page will not print a number here.

The score

deterministic, from filed fields

ALUS is not in the scored universe, so no score is shown. A withheld score is a fact about the record, not a verdict about the company.

Asymmetric return scoreNeither a price nor a cash-per-share figure is on file for this vehicle, and the score is a ratio between the two. Nothing is estimated to fill the gap.

The score is only published for names that carry both a price and a filed cash-per-share figure — 292 of the tracked fleet today. The rest keep an empty dial rather than a modelled one, and fill in by themselves as the fields land.

The company

from SEC filings
Read the full profile

Alussa Energy Acquisition Corp. (NYSE: ALUS) was a blank-check company whose IPO was priced on November 27, 2019, according to a 424B prospectus. The company's common ticker ALUS appeared on the cover page of an 8-K filed on June 30, 2021. The vehicle completed a business combination and no longer files as a separate entity. Its closure was established by Form 25 filed on July 8, 2021, under 17 CFR 240.12d2-2(a)(3), reflecting that its shares came to evidence other securities in substitution therefor — specifically Redeemable Warrants, each whole warrant exercisable for one Ordinary Share at an exercise price of $11.50. The successor registrant, FREYR Battery, filed an 8-K carrying Item 2.01 (Completion of Acquisition) naming Alussa Energy Acquisition Corp., confirming that the SPAC merged into a new registrant and filed no closing report of its own.


Material findings

from the full read of every filing

Every document this company files gets read whole — body and exhibits. These are the ones the read flagged as material, newest first, each citing its filing.

  • An Alussa holder ends up in a Luxembourg company by way of one Cayman merger and two Norwegian ones, and the exchange itself is one-for-one: each Class A and each Class B ordinary share becomes the right to receive one Pubco Ordinary Share, with dissenting shareholders' rights preserved separately. Each unit first separates into one Class A ordinary share and one-half of one Alussa Public Warrant. The target's wind farm business is carved out to FREYR's own shareholders through the demerger before the first closing, so it does not come across.

  • Substantial doubt about going concern is disclosed and carries an auditor explanatory paragraph, tied to November 29, 2021, the date operations must cease if no combination closes. The shell is effectively out of unrestricted money: under $400,000 of cash against $3.4 million of payables, so sponsor working capital loans or the deal closing are the only paths. Trust equates to roughly $10.08 per public share, of which about $2,334,000 is interest and unrealised gain available for taxes.

  • From January 10, 2020 the share and the warrant carry independent quotes, so the share can be priced against trust value rather than only as part of a bundled unit. The over-allotment was exercised in full, which fixes the public share count at 28,750,000 and caps public warrants at 14,375,000 whole warrants — larger than the $250,000,000 trust shown on the company's November 29, 2019 audited balance sheet, which was struck before that exercise.

  • This is the audited post-IPO balance sheet whose filing on Form 8-K is one of the conditions for the units to separate. The trust holds $250,000,000 and redemption value is carried at exactly $10.00 per share, so the floor equals the unit price at issue. Up to 937,500 of the 7,187,500 founder shares remained subject to forfeiture at this date, meaning the over-allotment had not been exercised in full. With $2,968,000 of cash outside the trust the company was self-funding; the $8,750,000 deferred underwriting fee is payable only on a closing.

  • The call is $0.01 on 30 days' notice once the last sale price holds at or above $18.00 for 20 of 30 trading days ending three trading days before notice - and that $18.00 resets to 180% of the higher of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price if the company funds its combination with cheap equity, so the trigger is a formula rather than a number. The $18.00 is separately adjustable for share splits, capitalisations, RIGHTS ISSUANCES and subdivisions. A second $12.00 test 150 days after the combination governs other securities and is not the call.

In plain English

tap a term to open it

Every piece of jargon this page could have used, and what it actually means.

Open the plain-English guide
No floor / floorlessthe cash guarantee is gone — the price is unprotected

A SPAC's downside protection is not the cash in trust; it is your right to demand that cash. Once the redemption window closes, the cash stays with the company and the share can trade anywhere.

Redemption deadlinethe last day to hand shares back for cash

Set by the filing that calls the meeting. Tender after it and the company is under no obligation to pay you the trust value.

Broker action datethe day your broker needs the instruction — earlier than the official date

Brokers batch redemption instructions to the transfer agent, so the practical cutoff is roughly two business days before the published deadline. This is the date that actually costs people the floor.

Cash in trust / trust per sharethe cash the company is holding for each public share

Filed quarterly in the 10-Q's XBRL. It earns interest between filings, so the figure on a given day is slightly higher than the last filed one — where we show that we label it an estimate.

Trust discountbuying below the cash held for you

Only meaningful while a redemption right exists. On a floorless name the same arithmetic is not a discount, it is the market pricing distress, and this product will not call it a yield.

Dilutionhow much of the company new shares take from you

Sponsor promote, PIPE shares, warrants and rights all issue stock that did not pay $10 for it. The headline deal value is before that; the effective value is after.

Pro-forma equitywhat the company is valued at once the deal closes

The combined company's equity value assuming the announced terms and the redemptions that have actually happened.

ARShow much upside you get per unit of downside

SpacBrain's asymmetric-return score. It is deterministic — the same inputs always produce the same number — and it is capped, not zeroed, when the floor is gone.

De-SPACthe day the SPAC becomes the real company

The shares stop being a claim on a pot of cash and start being equity in an operating business. Roughly 80% of recent de-SPACs traded below $10 within a year.

Outside datethe contractual long-stop for closing the deal

A deadline between the SPAC and its target, not between the SPAC and you. It confers no right to cash, which is exactly why it must never be counted as a redemption window.

Accession numberthe SEC's unique id for one filing

Every figure on this page carries the accession of the filing that states it, so you can open the primary document rather than trust us.

Accreted NAV (estimate)the last filed cash figure, plus the interest it should have earned since

A model, not a filing: last filed value compounded at the 3-month T-bill for the days elapsed. Always shown in italic with the word estimate, and never printed beside a filed number without it.
