Hopefully before Christmas. From what I understand is that part of their deal is a purchase of small division of a larger company. They had (understandably) thought that it would be sufficient just to audit that small piece, but that the SEC for some reason insisted on a detailed audit of the entire company even though ESA was only purchasing a small division of it. From what I understand basically we are just waiting for that one additional audit. These companies are privately held so they are not used to undergoing SEC audits-so the whole process has been extremely complex and time consuming.

Although the exact identity of the companies to be purchased remains shrouded in mystery, a good guess for one of them would have to be CJ Hughes.

Paul if you read over the last several posts before mine you can see that SPAC investing is becoming red hot on Wall Street. Incidentally I think the listed SPAC companies seem much more credible than then the OTC BB ones. The more successful ones seem to be all listed entities, and these new goliath ones also seem mostly to be listed.

We all owe Glenn Petersen thanks for organizing and maintaining this thread.
