Summary
Westin Acquisition, a SPAC trading near its 52-week high, announced a definitive business combination agreement to take First Choice Healthcare Solutions public at a pro forma enterprise value of about $650 million. The combined company will rebrand as Wellgevity 360 and trade on Nasdaq after closing, expected in Q4 2026. This is a transformative event for the SPAC, which had previously disclosed substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.

The announcement is the first material update since the May 10-Q flagged going concern risks, making it a significant positive catalyst.
