Three Lions Acquisition Corp.

Three Lions Acquisition Corp. is a Cayman Islands-exempted blank check company headquartered at 888 Prospect Street, La Jolla, California, incorporated on March 10, 2026, for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization, or similar business combination. The company intends to concentrate its efforts on opportunities in three mutually reinforcing sectors: sports (including professional and semi-professional franchises, leagues, academies, youth sports platforms, media, sponsorships, agencies, technology, and consumer brands); hospitality and leisure (including restaurants, food halls, hotels, resorts, destination and experiential entertainment, live events, and related consumer services); and real estate, with a particular interest in sports- and hospitality-anchored, mixed-use developments such as stadium, arena, and entertainment-district projects. The company may also pursue targets in adjacent sectors including sports and hospitality technology, media, ticketing, and consumer financial services. Its management team targets businesses with enterprise values generally between $500 million and $1.5 billion that possess defensible competitive positions, recognizable brands, or scarce underlying assets.

The company completed its initial public offering on September 1, 2026, raising $100,000,000 by offering 10,000,000 units at $10.00 per unit, with each unit consisting of one ordinary share and one-half of one warrant. Units were expected to trade on NASDAQ, with the ordinary shares and warrants listed separately under the symbols "TLAC" and "TLACW," respectively, upon separation. Of the gross proceeds, $100,500,000 (or $115,575,000 if the underwriter's over-allotment option was exercised in full), representing $10.05 per public share, was deposited into a U.S.-based trust account with Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company as trustee. Approximately $2,600,000 was designated for fees and expenses related to the offering closing, and an estimated $900,000 was available for working capital. The sole book-running manager was EarlyBirdCapital, Inc. The company's sponsor is Three Lions Sponsor, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, which held 3,033,333 founder shares prior to the offering, with an additional 200,000 EBC founder shares issued to the underwriter and up to 500,000 forfeiture shares subject to the over-allotment.

The management team is led by Chairman and director Berke Bakay, Chief Executive Officer Brett Johnson, and Chief Financial Officer and director Harry Brandler, supported by independent directors Jeffrey G. Brock, Jameson Culp, and Jeffrey A. Dunham. Bakay and Johnson are co-founders and co-managing directors of Three Lions Capital Management LLC, a private equity firm focused on sports, entertainment, and life sciences, and collectively hold ownership stakes in Ipswich Town Football Club Ltd., Phoenix Rising FC, and Rhode Island FC, along with co-founding Tiger Hospitality FH Holdings LLC, a Southern California food hall platform. Brandler previously served as CFO of Greenlight Capital, Inc. from 2001 to 2019 and as a director of Green Brick Partners from 2014 to August 2026. The company has 21 months from the closing of the offering to consummate a business combination, after which it will redeem 100% of its outstanding public shares for a pro rata portion of the trust account if no combination is completed.
