Haymaker Acquisition Corp. 4 announced the postponement of its special shareholder and warrantholder meetings from March 30, 2026, to April 2, 2026, and extended the redemption request deadline to April 1, 2026. This delay, occurring just days before the original vote, signals potential challenges in securing sufficient shareholder approval or managing redemptions for the proposed business combination with Suncrete. While the filing also details the definitive agreements for the previously announced upsizing of the PIPE financing to $167.1 million and the issuance of $26 million in Series A Convertible Perpetual Preferred Stock, the postponement introduces uncertainty regarding the transaction's completion and the final cash available to the combined entity.
