Analysis · SSEA · Real Estate & Construction
A critical liquidity squeeze emerges from Starry Sea Acquisition Corp's Q2 2026 report: cash outside the trust account has fallen to just $6,081, creating a working capital deficit of $158,336. Management explicitly states that failure to complete a business combination within the Combination Period raises substantial doubt about the company's ability to continue as a going concern. To bridge the gap, the sponsor has agreed to a new $500,000 promissory note, of which $198,432 was already outstanding as of June 30, 2026. The company's prior LOI with Forever Young expired in January 2026, leaving it without a target as the November 2026 deadline approaches.
