This preliminary proxy statement outlines Flag Ship Acquisition Corp's critical proposal to extend its deadline for completing a business combination by up to 12 months, from June 20, 2026, to June 20, 2027. This follows the recent termination of its merger agreement with Great Future Technology Inc., as disclosed in an 8-K filing on May 4, 2026. Without this extension, the SPAC faces mandatory liquidation on June 20, 2026. The proposal includes a commitment from the sponsor to deposit monthly extension fees into the trust account, demonstrating their intent to find a new target. Shareholders will have redemption rights if the extension is approved. This vote is crucial for the company's continued existence and its ability to pursue a new acquisition.
