The proceeds can only be used for a merger with a target company and
redemptions of the interests attributable to public market investors.
Assets
The proceeds received are held in a trust account until completion of
merger with a target company and are invested only in certain financial
assets that are highly liquid.
The SPACs will cease all operations and redeem all interests attributable
to public market investors in it, if it is unable to complete a merger within
24 months from the date of IPO (operating expenses of the SPAC are
borne by the sponsor).
Public market investors retain an option to redeem part or all of the
proceeds contributed from them upon completion of the initial merger.
Because the relevant SPACs will be obligated to redeem them for cash.
under such conditions, non-controlling interests subject to possible
redemption are classified as "liabilities", not as "equity" under IFRSs.
