(Reuters) - A blank-check firm that counts athletes Patrick Mahomes, Naomi Osaka, and Robert Lewandowski among its advisers is looking to raise $250 million through a U.S. initial public offering, a regulatory filing on Thursday showed.
Disruptive Acquisition Corporation I said it planned to sell 25 million units, composed of shares and warrants, priced at $10 per unit, on the Nasdaq Capital Market.
The special purpose acquisition company, or SPAC, is sponsored by an affiliate of Los Angeles-based merchant bank Disruptive, whose Chief Executive Officer Alexander Davis will be leading the blank-check firm.
SPACs are shell companies that raise funds through an initial public offering to take a private company public through a merger at a later date.
Disruptive Acquisition, which also counts baseball pitcher Justin Verlander and boxer Canelo Alvarez among its advisers, said it intends to find a target in the health and wellness, entertainment and consumer-facing technology sectors.
Citigroup and Credit Suisse are the book-running managers for the offering.
