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.

The company
from SEC filingsRead the full profile
Clean Earth Acquisitions Corp. was a blank-check company that listed its common ticker CLIN on the Nasdaq Stock Market. The firm priced its initial public offering on February 25, 2022, registering shares sold for cash under SEC file number 333-261201. It was classified under SEC SIC industry code 4931 for Electric & Other Services Combined. The vehicle completed a business combination and no longer files, with a change in shell company status established on December 22, 2023. EDGAR now files SEC CIK 0001883984 under the name Alternus Clean Energy, 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.
An extreme 1-for-2,500 reverse split signals severe post-deal share price deterioration and likely non-compliance with exchange listing requirements, forcing the company to OTC Pink. This is highly dilutive-risk-relevant for any former SPAC shareholders still holding equity, as it reflects significant value destruction since the merger closed.
This summary is drawn from the cover page and the cautionary statement of the report; the balance sheet and statements of operations are not covered here.
Supplies the pro forma financial information the September 2025 acquisition report deferred. The counterparty named in the prior report and the entity the pro formas cover are written differently in the same document (Hover in the recital, EverOn Energy LLC in the exhibit), and both are recorded here as filed rather than reconciled.
Series F investors are giving up their anti-dilution ranking protection at subscription, clearing the way for further preferred issuances including a contemplated raise of up to $10 million with RBW Capital that is described as a term sheet, not a completed financing. The subscription amount is not stated in the form.
Substantial doubt about going concern is stated in the filing, and the equity base behind it is tiny — 724,658 shares outstanding, the signature of a company that has already run one or more deep reverse splits. New Series D convertible preferred carrying a put option appeared during the quarter, which means the financing is both dilutive on conversion and a cash claim if put. For a former CLIN holder the trust is long gone; what remains is a levered project developer funding itself with structured preferred.
A full fiscal year with no revenue at all is the central fact: the utility-scale portfolio that produced 2024 revenue no longer does, and the business described in the report, power purchase and energy-as-a-service contracts with corporate clients, is a pipeline rather than a revenue base. Against that the auditor has flagged going concern and management says additional working capital is required. The securities trade on the OTC Market rather than an exchange, so a holder faces limited liquidity while that financing is sought.

A conversion price below $0.351 means the note converts at a fraction of a dollar, so the share count required to settle it is enormous - which is why authorised capital must double to 300 million to accommodate it. Interest and redemption payments are also made in shares, so the dilution compounds with time rather than arriving once. The Clean Earth trust was released at the de-SPAC, so holders absorb all of it without a floor.
At 62% ownership Alternus takes control and Clean Earth becomes a Nasdaq controlled company, meaning the board may waive independence protections that ordinary shareholders rely on. The $78.0 million cash figure assumes zero redemptions, so every share redeemed reduces it directly, and the $5,000,001 net tangible asset floor is retained — heavy redemption blocks the deal entirely. The roughly $84.9 million trust is the floor holders can take instead.
The earnout is more than half the size of the closing consideration: 35,000,000 Earnout Shares against 55,000,000 issued at closing, released on Adjusted EBITDA and share price milestones. Alternus's obligation to close is conditioned on Available Cash of at least $25,000,000, measured after redemptions, both sides' transaction expenses and repayment of working capital loans — a low bar a heavily redeemed trust could still clear with new money. Clean Earth also will not redeem public shares if doing so would take net tangible assets below $5,000,001.
Filings
live EDGAR feedEverything this company has filed with the SEC recently, newest first, each with a plain summary of what changed and why it matters.
What changed: Alternus Clean Energy (post-merger entity from Clean Earth Acquisitions Corp.) effected a 1-for-2,500 reverse stock split on August 20, 2026, reducing outstanding common shares from approximately 724,658 to approximately 290. The stock began trading on a split-adjusted basis on the OTC Pink market under temporary symbol ALCED, reverting to ADIS after 20 trading days. Why it matters: An extreme 1-for-2,500 reverse split signals severe post-deal share price deterioration and likely non-compliance with exchange listing requirements, forcing the company to OTC Pink. This is highly dilutive-risk-relevant for any former SPAC shareholders still holding equity, as it reflects significant value destruction since the merger closed.
What changed: Q2 2026 10-Q of Alternus Clean Energy, Inc. (ALCE, quoted on OTC Market), filed under Clean Earth Acquisitions Corp's CIK, for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2026. The cover states 724,658 shares of common stock outstanding as of August 14, 2026, and lists both the common stock and the warrants as quoted on OTC Market rather than an exchange. Why it matters: This summary is drawn from the cover page and the cautionary statement of the report; the balance sheet and statements of operations are not covered here.

What changed: 8-K/A of Alternus Clean Energy, Inc. amending Item 9.01 of the Form 8-K filed October 6, 2025, which announced that on September 30, 2025 the Company entered a Stock Purchase Agreement and Joint Venture Operating Agreement with Hover. Item 9.01 now files as Exhibit 99.1 unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information giving effect to the Company's acquisition of EverOn as of September 30, 2025, with pro forma statements of operations for the Company and EverOn for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2025. The report states the pro formas are informational only. Why it matters: Supplies the pro forma financial information the September 2025 acquisition report deferred. The counterparty named in the prior report and the entity the pro formas cover are written differently in the same document (Hover in the recital, EverOn Energy LLC in the exhibit), and both are recorded here as filed rather than reconciled.
What changed: Exhibit 10.1 to an 8-K of Alternus Clean Energy, Inc.: the form of Subscription Agreement for shares of the company's Series F Convertible Preferred Stock, with terms in an attached Certificate of Designation and the consideration stated on each investor's signature page. The company agrees to file an initial resale registration statement on Form S-1 covering the common stock issuable on conversion within three months of the Original Issue Date and to use commercially reasonable efforts to have it declared effective. Why it matters: Series F investors are giving up their anti-dilution ranking protection at subscription, clearing the way for further preferred issuances including a contemplated raise of up to $10 million with RBW Capital that is described as a term sheet, not a completed financing. The subscription amount is not stated in the form.

What changed: Alternus Clean Energy, Inc., incorporated in Delaware in 2021 as Clean Earth Acquisitions Corp., filed its 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2026 on July 20, 2026. It states that conditions remain that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern for twelve months. Total liabilities fell to $25.8 million from $34.0 million. Series D Convertible Preferred subject to a put option stood at 1,150 shares at March 31, 2026 against zero at year end, carried at $451 thousand in temporary equity. Only 724,658 common shares were outstanding as of July 17, 2026. Why it matters: Substantial doubt about going concern is stated in the filing, and the equity base behind it is tiny — 724,658 shares outstanding, the signature of a company that has already run one or more deep reverse splits. New Series D convertible preferred carrying a put option appeared during the quarter, which means the financing is both dilutive on conversion and a cash claim if put. For a former CLIN holder the trust is long gone; what remains is a levered project developer funding itself with structured preferred.

What changed: Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-K/A for Alternus Clean Energy, Inc. for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, amending the original annual report filed June 15, 2026. The explanatory note states the amendment is filed solely to correct an inadvertent administrative error on page 39, in Item 7 Management's Discussion and Analysis, in the Consolidated Results of Operations table, and that the correction does not affect previously reported financial statements, results of operations, cash flows, stockholders' equity or any conclusion regarding disclosure controls or internal control. Why it matters: Administrative rather than substantive: the company states the corrected item is a presentation error inside an MD&A table and that no financial statement, cash flow or control conclusion changes, so an ALCE holder's read of the June 15, 2026 annual report stands. The one caution is that the error sat in the results-of-operations summary many readers rely on instead of the statements themselves, so any analysis built from page 39 of the original filing should be redone from this amendment. Only the Section 302 and 906 certifications are refiled as exhibits.
What changed: Alternus Clean Energy, Inc.'s annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025. The company states that during the year ended December 31, 2024 it generated revenues from the sale of clean energy under long-term offtake agreements to national power grids, and that no revenue was generated during the year ended December 31, 2025. Its auditor has expressed substantial doubt about the company's ability to continue as a going concern, and management states it will need to raise additional working capital. Common stock trades as ALCE and warrants as ACLEW on the OTC Market. Why it matters: A full fiscal year with no revenue at all is the central fact: the utility-scale portfolio that produced 2024 revenue no longer does, and the business described in the report, power purchase and energy-as-a-service contracts with corporate clients, is a pipeline rather than a revenue base. Against that the auditor has flagged going concern and management says additional working capital is required. The securities trade on the OTC Market rather than an exchange, so a holder faces limited liquidity while that financing is sought.

No sponsor entity is named in the filings parsed for this SPAC so far.
A missing score, not a score of zero — why
A Sponsor Score is only published once the sponsor’s prior vehicles have been verified on EDGAR and their post-close outcomes priced. That record does not exist for this sponsor yet, so no number and no tier is shown. That is a missing score, not a score of zero — and not a neutral 50 either.
Coverage so far: 301 of 1280 tracked SPACs (24%) are attached to a scored sponsor. This card fills in by itself as the research lands.

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.

admitted from EDGAR's QUARTERLY FORM INDEX, walked without any SIC filter. The SIC 6770 census could not reach this registrant: EDGAR reassigns a shell's SIC the day it stops being one, and this CIK now files under 4931 (Electric & Other Services Combined). The screen found it by filing SHAPE instead — S-1 2021-11-19 → 8-A12B 2022-02-23 → 424B4 2022-02-25 — which nothing rewrites. Admission rule: src/lib/universe-admit.ts.

The pricing prospectus was filed under SEC file number 333-261201, which belongs to S-1 0001104659-21-141504 (2021-11-19) — a registration of shares sold for CASH, which is what makes it an IPO rather than merger consideration. Blank-check status from the registrant's own first-person sentence in that prospectus (EDGAR full-text search, 424B4 2022-02-25). Ending PROVEN, not inferred: CLOSED per 8-K 0001104659-23-128865 (2023-12-22) — 8-K item 5.06 "Change in Shell Company Status" (EDGAR item index, items: 1.01,2.01,3.02,3.03,4.01,5.01,5.02,5.06,9.01). EDGAR now files this CIK as "Alternus Clean Energy, Inc." — the SPAC's own name is kept here and the successor is the target. ipoSizeM and deadline left NULL: gross-proceeds prose conflates the over-allotment with the offering, and a charter deadline belonging to a vehicle that has ended is a date nobody can act on. ipoDate is the 424B pricing date.
