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 LGL Systems Acquisition Holding Company, LLC, listed on Nasdaq in November 2019.
What it's doing now
It agreed to buy IronNet, Inc.. 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

DFNS 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

LGL Systems Acquisition Corp. was a blank-check company whose common stock traded on the Nasdaq Stock Market under the ticker DFNS. The company priced its initial public offering on November 12, 2019, under SEC file number 333-234124, an S-1 registration (accession 0001213900-19-019903) of shares sold for cash, with the pricing prospectus filed as 424B4 0001213900-19-022827. The registrant was classified under SEC SIC industry code 7372 (Services-Prepackaged Software) and described itself as a blank check company in that prospectus. The common ticker DFNS appears on the cover page of a 10-Q filed December 23, 2019 (accession 0001213900-19-026874). The vehicle completed a business combination and no longer files, with its closed status established by an 8-K filed September 1, 2021 (accession 0001193125-21-263381) reporting a change in shell company status under Item 5.06; EDGAR now files SEC CIK 0001777946 under the name IronNet, Inc.


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.

  • A merger agreement amended on the day the amended registration statement is filed means the terms holders will vote on moved immediately before the document describing them went out, and the meeting is only weeks away. The charter proposals are put separately rather than as one block: a name change to IronNet, Inc., and an increase in capitalisation to 500,000,000 authorised shares of a single class of common stock and 100,000,000 authorised shares of preferred stock.

  • The charter amendments are put separately rather than as a package, so a holder votes on each on its own: the change of name to IronNet, Inc. and an increase in capitalisation to 500,000,000 authorised shares of a single class of common stock, with a further 100,000,000 authorised, are distinct items. The meeting has neither a date nor an hour on the face of the notice, so no redemption deadline can be computed from this version of the document.

  • The charter proposals are voted separately and reach well beyond a name change: capitalisation rises to 500,000,000 shares of a single class of common stock and 100,000,000 shares of preferred stock, from 75,000,000 Class A, 10,000,000 Class B and 1,000,000 preferred. Two further amendments narrow shareholder rights — stockholders may act only at annual and special meetings and not by written consent, and the existing limitations on the corporate opportunity doctrine are eliminated. Each is put as its own proposal.

  • The $3,563.82 is a Rule 457(f)(2) construct rather than a valuation: IronNet is private, no market exists for its securities and it has an accumulated deficit, so the price is one-third of the aggregate par value of the IronNet securities to be exchanged, including securities issuable on the exercise of options or settlement of restricted stock units. The figure that carries meaning is 86,340,000 — the ceiling on what LGL issues, with the target's option and RSU overhang counted inside it rather than added to it.

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.

UNIVERSE-IPO-INDEX2026-08-17

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 7372 (Services-Prepackaged Software). The screen found it by filing SHAPE instead — S-1 2019-10-07 → 8-A12B 2019-11-05 → 424B4 2019-11-12 — which nothing rewrites. Admission rule: src/lib/universe-admit.ts. SIC 7372 + self-described blank check in 424B4 0001213900-19-022827; 424B 0001213900-19-022827 priced 2019-11-12 under S-1 0001213900-19-019903 (file 333-234124, an offering for cash); common ticker DFNS off 10-Q 0001213900-19-026874 (2019-12-23); lifecycle EXITED. The pricing prospectus was filed under SEC file number 333-234124, which belongs to S-1 0001213900-19-019903 (2019-10-07) — 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 2019-11-12). Ending PROVEN, not inferred: CLOSED per 8-K 0001193125-21-263381 (2021-09-01) — 8-K item 5.06 "Change in Shell Company Status" (EDGAR item index, items: 1.01,2.01,3.02,4.01,5.01,5.02,5.03,5.06,9.01). EDGAR now files this CIK as "IronNet, 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.
