How do I redeem WINV shares?

Tell your broker you want to redeem (tender) your WINV shares for their share of the trust before the deadline — the next window on file is 15 September 2026, and brokers need the instruction by about 11 September 2026. The broker passes the instruction to the transfer agent; cash arrives after the event settles.

How much does WINV pay per share on redemption?

The trust held $14.81 per share as last filed (30 June 2026), and a redemption pays that figure plus interest earned between the filing and the window. The most recent filed redemption actually paid $13.65 per share.

How heavy have WINV redemptions been?

The heaviest single filed event saw 83.54% of the public float take the cash; across all filed events 11.29M shares have been redeemed.

How to redeem, step by step

The process is the same at every window; only the dates change.

Find the deadline in the filing that calls the meeting — for WINV the next window on file is 15 September 2026.
Contact your broker and say you want to redeem (some desks say “tender”) your WINV shares for the trust value. Do it at least two business days before the official date — by about 11 September 2026.
Your broker passes the instruction to the transfer agent. The shares are taken from the account; the cash ($14.81 a share as last filed, plus interest) arrives after the event settles.
If the vote is cancelled or the deal changes, elections can usually be withdrawn — the proxy for each vote states the exact mechanics.

The general mechanics — who pays, when, and the edge cases — are in our plain-English guide to SPAC redemption. Not investment advice.

In plain English

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.
