• It comes as special purpose acquisition companies (SPACs), an alternative route to public markets, are making a comeback in the US after years of subdued activity.
• A SPAC is a shell company that raises capital through an initial public offering and then uses the funds to merge with or acquire a private company, taking it public without a traditional IPO.
• Founded in 2012, REDLattice provides lawful intercept, vulnerability research and intelligence acquisition solutions.
• "The company sells exclusively to government agencies at the nation-state or federal level and is a trusted partner to more than 100 customers across 23 countries," it added.
• After the deal closes, REDLattice expects to trade on the Nasdaq under the ticker symbol "REDL."
• The companies expect the deal will close around year-end 2026.
