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, listed on Nasdaq in March 2018.
- What it's doing now
- It agreed to buy BurgerFi International, Inc., a fast-casual restaurant chain 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.

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 score
deterministic, from filed fieldsOPES 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 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 filingsRead the full profile
Opes Acquisition Corp. was a blank-check company whose common stock traded on the Nasdaq Stock Market under the ticker OPES. The company priced its initial public offering on March 13, 2018, under SEC file number 333-223106, with shares registered for cash on Form S-1 (accession 0001615774-18-001330, filed February 20, 2018) and priced pursuant to a 424B5 prospectus (accession 0001615774-18-001859). The registrant was assigned SEC CIK 0001723580 and carried the SIC industry code 5812 (Retail-Eating Places). The ticker OPES appears on the cover page of a 10-Q filed November 19, 2019 (accession 0001213900-19-024114). The vehicle completed a business combination and no longer files, with its change in shell company status reported on an 8-K filed December 23, 2020 (accession 0001213900-20-044181); EDGAR now lists this CIK under the name BurgerFi International, 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.
The trust does not comfortably cover the cash leg: OPES states approximately $46.5 million in its trust account as of November 24, 2020, against $30,000,000 of cash payable at closing plus a $20,000,000 element the board may also elect to pay in cash. Whether that second tranche is settled in cash or in 1,886,792 shares is in the sole and absolute discretion of the OPES board of directors. Members may receive up to 9,356,459 further shares if stock price targets are met after closing. The closing price on November 24, 2020 was $12.25.
The mix is what a holder should read: $30,000,000 in cash to the Members, $20,000,000 payable either in cash or in OPES common stock valued at $10.60 per share in the sole and absolute discretion of the OPES board, and 4,716,981 shares of OPES common stock. That middle tranche can be switched from cash to stock without a further vote. A further 9,356,459 shares may follow if stock price targets are met after closing. The trust balance and the record-date share price are both printed as blanks, so neither can be read from this version.

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.

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 5812 (Retail-Eating Places). The screen found it by filing SHAPE instead — S-1 2018-02-20 → 8-A12B 2018-03-09 → 424B5 2018-03-13 — which nothing rewrites. Admission rule: src/lib/universe-admit.ts. SIC 5812 + self-described blank check in 424B5 0001615774-18-001859; 424B 0001615774-18-001859 priced 2018-03-13 under S-1 0001615774-18-001330 (file 333-223106, an offering for cash); common ticker OPES off 10-Q 0001213900-19-024114 (2019-11-19); lifecycle EXITED. The pricing prospectus was filed under SEC file number 333-223106, which belongs to S-1 0001615774-18-001330 (2018-02-20) — 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, 424B5 2018-03-13). Ending PROVEN, not inferred: CLOSED per 8-K 0001213900-20-044181 (2020-12-23) — 8-K item 5.06 "Change in Shell Company Status" (EDGAR item index, items: 1.01,2.01,3.02,4.01,5.02,5.03,5.06,8.01,9.01). EDGAR now files this CIK as "BurgerFi International, 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.
[CLOSED-RENAME] EDGAR CIK 0001723580 records "Opes Acquisition Corp." ending 2020-12-16; the registrant continues as "BurgerFi International, Inc.". The rename is the SEC's own record of what the vehicle became, keyed by CIK. Closed 2020-12-16. No deal value is set — a rename says what was acquired, never for how much. No date column is set: Deal has announcedAt, voteDate and expectedCloseAt and nowhere to record an actual close, so the SEC's date is kept here until that column exists.
