The business, per its filings

SEC primary

Tianji Tire Global (Cayman) Limited is the Cayman holding company for a Chinese tire manufacturer - principally Henan Tianji Tyre Co., Ltd (established December 2020, registered capital CNY100M, No. 2009 Fazhan Road, Boai Industrial Zone, Jiaozuo City, Henan) - that designs, makes and sells all-steel tubeless radial truck tires (TBR) for medium- and short-distance transport under six brands: premium SEMES, mid-to-high-end Tianxin, mass-market Lunaite, Aoben and GFT Rider, and mining-transport brand Kuangshan Jiuhao. The company's own site claims annual capacity of 1.2M all-steel radial truck tires plus 10M passenger-car tires, 200+ domestic sales outlets, exports to 30+ countries (Americas, SE Asia, Middle East, Australia, Africa), CCC/ISO-TS16949/DOT/ECE certifications, and Shenzhen-listed Zhejiang Tiantie Industry Co., Ltd (300587.SZ) as a shareholder whose entry brought tire-industry talent and technology. CEO Hailong Cheng leads the company and will run the combined company. IMPORTANT: no SEC-filed financial statements for Tianji exist yet - the merger agreement (signed 26-Jan-2025) required delivery of audited FY2024 accounts by 31-Mar-2025, but as of 14-Aug-2026, 18+ months after announcement, no F-4 registration statement has been filed, so revenue/EBITDA cannot be stated from any accession; the company is an operating manufacturer with real sales per its own materials, not a paper company. Merger consideration is $450M paid entirely in newly issued shares at $10.00; combined company to be renamed Tianji Tire Global Group (Cayman) Limited and seek a Nasdaq listing.

SpacBrain’s read on the price

No multiple can be computed

We hold no revenue figure in US dollars for Tianji Tire Global (Cayman) Limited, so there is nothing to divide the price by and no multiple can be struck. It is not recorded as pre-revenue either — this is a gap in our record, not a finding that the company has no sales. The deal values it at $542.4M regardless.

We have not extracted a revenue figure for this company from its filings yet. That is our gap, not a statement about the business.

Not computable — no revenue figure has been extracted from the filings yet.

What the stock market pays for its closest listed peers0.53×

$1 of their sales costs $0.53 on the open market. Median of 2 listed companies we judged a true comparable, which individually run from 0.53× to 0.53×. Their share prices are from 14 August 2026, not today.

What qualifies the figures above

  • Struck on the post-dilution value of $542.4M, not the announced $450M — new shares handed to the sponsor, warrant holders and the PIPE are part of what public buyers are really paying.
  • The target's cash and debt are not in the filings we have, so this is an equity value used as a stand-in for enterprise value.
  • 601058.SS, 601966.SS, MNRO, BRDCY, DORM, 300587.SZ have no revenue to divide by, so they are shown but left out of the peer median.

Which companies belong on this list is our judgement, and the sentence beside each one is the whole of our reasoning — disagree with it and the verdict above changes. Rows marked context only are shown because they are informative, but they are deliberately left out of the median. The multiples come from listed-company data priced Aug 14, 2026; a private target’s deal multiple is not audited the way theirs are.
