SpacBrain reads this as 4,052,916 shares are no longer redeemable.
The clause “0,000,000 shares authorized; 1,505,079 shares issued and outstanding (excluding 1,038,280 and 5,091,196 shares subject to possible redemption at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively ) 151 151 Additional paid-in capital —”…
The clause …“and liquidate the Trust Account. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statement does not include any adjustments that might result from”…
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.
What changed: SPK Acquisition Corp. ('SPKA', a Delaware blank check company) filed Amendment No. 3 to its Form S-4; the preliminary proxy statement/prospectus inside is dated October 21, 2022. No explanatory note names the change. The special meeting will be virtual-only — stockholders will NOT be able to attend in person — with the date, time and URL left blank. The Merger Agreement is dated February 11, 2022 among SPKA, SPK Merger Sub, Inc. (Delaware) and Varian Biopharmaceuticals, Inc. Why it matters: The trust has been reduced from roughly $51 million to approximately $10.5 million by redemptions, and the document itself connects that to a closing condition: Nasdaq must approve the listing of the shares to be issued, and SPKA says its shrunken float may make that harder. That is a stated risk to completion, not an inference. The extension right runs to March 10, 2023 only if all six one-month extensions are exercised — it is a ceiling on a series of optional extensions, not a fixed deadline, and the operative date at the time of this filing was whatever extension had actually been taken.

What changed: SPK Acquisition Corp. ('SPKA', a Delaware blank check company) filed Amendment No. 2 to its Form S-4; the preliminary proxy statement/prospectus inside is dated June 17, 2022. No explanatory note names the change. The special meeting will be held in a virtual-only format — the document states stockholders will NOT be able to attend in person — with the date, time and meeting URL all left blank. Holders of common stock will be asked to approve the merger agreement and related proposals. Why it matters: This version fixes no vote date, no access address and no registered share count in the extracted portion, so it establishes no deadline and no dilution ceiling. It predates the September 2022 extension vote and the large redemption that the later amendment of this registration statement reports, so nothing here reflects the reduced trust balance.

What changed: SPK Acquisition Corp. ('SPKA', a Delaware blank check company) filed Amendment No. 1 to its Form S-4; the preliminary proxy statement/prospectus inside is dated April 25, 2022. No explanatory note names the change. The special meeting will be held in a virtual-only format — the document states stockholders will NOT be able to attend in person — with the date, time and meeting URL all left blank. Why it matters: This version fixes no vote date, no access address and no registered share count in the extracted portion. It predates the September 2022 extension vote and the redemption of 4,052,916 shares that the later amendment of this registration statement reports, so nothing here reflects the reduced trust balance or the Nasdaq listing risk disclosed then.
What changed: SPK Acquisition Corp. ('SPKA', a Delaware blank check company) filed its ORIGINAL Form S-4; the preliminary proxy statement/prospectus inside is dated March 1, 2022. The special meeting will be held in a virtual-only format — the document states stockholders will NOT be able to attend in person — with the date, time and meeting URL all left blank. Why it matters: This is the baseline of the SPKA registration, filed roughly three weeks after the February 11, 2022 merger agreement its later amendments describe. It fixes no vote date, no access address and no registered share count in the extracted portion, and it long predates the September 2022 extension vote and redemption that later versions report.
In plain English
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.
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.
