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.
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.

deterministic, from filed fieldsCIIC 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.

The company
from SEC filingsRead the full profile
CIIG Merger Corp. was a blank-check company whose common stock, warrants and units traded on the Nasdaq Stock Market under the ticker CIIC. The company priced its initial public offering on December 13, 2019, as reflected in 424B prospectus 0001213900-19-026100, and its SEC filings are recorded under CIK 0001789760 with SIC industry code 6770. The ticker CIIC appears on the cover page of 8-K 0001193125-21-087561, filed March 19, 2021. The vehicle completed a business combination and no longer files, with the closing established by Form 25 0001354457-21-000408 filed on March 24, 2021 under 17 CFR 240.12d2-2(a)(3), after which the Class A Common Stock, Warrants and Units came to evidence other securities in substitution therefor. EDGAR now files this CIK under the name Arrival Vault US, Inc.
Material findings
from the full read of every filingEvery 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.
Kinetik S.à r.l. will hold 76.43% of Holdco's outstanding ordinary shares and may propose a majority of the board until its stake falls below 30%, so Holdco will be a controlled company under Nasdaq's corporate governance rules — and it is also a foreign private issuer and an emerging growth company, eligible for reduced disclosure on all three counts. Arrival's equity is deemed to have a value of approximately US $5.3 billion, Holdco expects to issue 606,178,750 ordinary shares in all, and the PIPE is 40,000,000 CIIG Class A shares at $10.00 per share.
Operating costs of $6.2m in one year are far above a searching shell's run rate and are the cost of the Arrival transaction; they have put the company $4,026,644 into working-capital deficit while the trust itself is untouched. The trust figure is as of December 31, 2020. CIIG holders representing about 18% of shares outstanding are committed to voting for the deal under a transaction support agreement, so the vote is materially pre-committed before any public solicitation. It withdrew $132,891 of trust interest during 2020 to pay taxes.
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 $258,750,000 and redemption value is carried at exactly $10.00 per share, so the floor equals the unit price at issue; the trust size implies the over-allotment was exercised in full on a $225,000,000 base. The 6,468,750 Class B shares outstanding match the founder share count after the sponsor's November forfeiture and the BlackRock funds' purchase of the forfeited 646,875, so the anchor's stake is already in the share count here.
An anchor investor is being brought in on founder-share economics rather than at the $10.00 unit price: BlackRock funds acquired 646,875 Class B shares for approximately $2,500 — about $0.004 a share, the same price the sponsor paid — by way of the sponsor forfeiting exactly that number the day before. That is a transfer of sponsor promote to an institutional investor in exchange for its participation, and it dilutes public shareholders on the same terms the sponsor's own stake does. The anchor also buys warrants at the standard $11.50 strike.
Two warrant redemptions, not one. The familiar $0.01 call needs the last sale price at or above $18.00 for 20 of 30 trading days. The second needs the last reported sale price at or above only $10.00 on the SINGLE trading day before the notice, and requires the private placement warrants to be redeemed at the same time - a call that is reachable while the shares trade at about trust value. Both $18.00 figures also reset to 180% of the higher of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price after a qualifying issuance. Charter amendments need 65%.

What changed: CIIG Merger Corp. issued definitive merger materials dated February 26, 2021 for a virtual special meeting at 10:00 a.m. Eastern time on March 19, 2021, on the business combination agreement dated November 18, 2020 with Arrival S.à r.l., ARSNL Merger Sub Inc. and Arrival Group as Holdco. Arrival's shareholders contribute their equity to Holdco under separate exchange agreements, then CIIG merges into Merger Sub and CIIG's common stock is exchanged for Holdco Ordinary Shares, leaving Arrival and CIIG as wholly owned subsidiaries of Holdco. Why it matters: Kinetik S.à r.l. will hold 76.43% of Holdco's outstanding ordinary shares and may propose a majority of the board until its stake falls below 30%, so Holdco will be a controlled company under Nasdaq's corporate governance rules — and it is also a foreign private issuer and an emerging growth company, eligible for reduced disclosure on all three counts. Arrival's equity is deemed to have a value of approximately US $5.3 billion, Holdco expects to issue 606,178,750 ordinary shares in all, and the PIPE is 40,000,000 CIIG Class A shares at $10.00 per share.

SpacBrain reads this as the agreement may be terminated from 2021-03-31.
The clause …“Effective Time shall not have occurred prior to 5:00 p.m. (New York time) on March 31, 2021 (the Outside Date ); provided , however , that this Agreement may not be terminated under this Section 10.01(b) by or on behalf of any Party”…
Read from stored SEC filing text by a regex — no model is involved — and each side links to the filing it came from. “Not previously extracted” is a statement about our record, not about the company: the clause may be present in wording we do not match.

In plain English
tap a term to open itEvery 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.
