Plum Acquisition Corp. IV has amended its Business Combination Agreement with Controlled Thermal Resources, pushing back critical deadlines for financial statement delivery, antitrust filings, and material consents. These extensions introduce further uncertainty and potential delays for a merger that is essential for Plum IV, especially given its recent "going concern" warning and the approaching July 16, 2026, merger deadline. The new antitrust filing deadline of July 31, 2026, notably extends beyond the current merger completion date, suggesting further timeline adjustments may be necessary.
