The proposed offering is being managed by Maxim Group as the sole bookrunner. The company granted the underwriters a 45-day over-allotment option to purchase additional 1.2 million company units at the same IPO price.

The offering is expected to close on February 2, 2022, subject to customary closing conditions.

The newly-organized blank check company is being led by its chairman and CEO Liang Shi, a partner of Chinese investment fund Ningbo Zenin Investments Management Partners. On its target firms for businesses combination, the company is looking into areas that reflect the experience of its management, including marine leisure, marine engineering, travel and tourism, and marine services.
