This 8-K filing provides the definitive financial details following HCM IV Acquisition Corp.'s initial public offering (IPO), which was previously announced on February 19, 2026. It confirms the full exercise of the over-allotment option, resulting in 28,750,000 units sold at $10.00 each, generating $287.5 million. Crucially, the filing also details a concurrent private placement of 4,666,667 warrants at $1.50 per warrant, raising an additional $7 million in gross proceeds from the Sponsor and underwriter. The inclusion of the audited balance sheet as of February 13, 2026, provides the first comprehensive financial snapshot post-IPO. While the balance sheet includes a standard 'Going Concern Uncertainty' note, this is common for SPACs that have no operations and limited working capital outside their trust account, which holds the bulk of the IPO proceeds.
