This definitive prospectus (424B3) outlines the terms and calls for a shareholder vote on the de-SPAC merger between GigCapital7 Corp. and Hadron Energy, Inc., which is critical for GigCapital7's continued operations given its 'going concern' warning. The merger will result in substantial dilution for existing GigCapital7 public shareholders, who will collectively own approximately 36.34% of the combined entity on a fully diluted basis, while Hadron Energy securityholders will own 63.66%. The transaction is priced near the current market and redemption value, but the significant shift in ownership and the proposed new equity incentive plan (10% initial reserve with a 5% evergreen provision) represent considerable future dilution potential. The sponsor and management have strong incentives to complete this transaction, as their investment is at risk if the merger does not close.
