November 22 2019 - 2:03PM
Amplitude Healthcare Acquisition Corporation (the “Company”)
announced today that it closed its initial public offering of
10,000,000 units at $10.00 per unit. The units are listed on The
Nasdaq Capital Market (“Nasdaq”) and commenced trading under the
ticker symbol “AMHCU” on November 20, 2019. Each unit consists of
one share of the Company’s Class A common stock and one-half of one
redeemable warrant, each whole warrant enabling the holder thereof
to purchase one share of Class A common stock at a price of $11.50
per share. Only whole warrants will trade and are exercisable. Once
the securities comprising the units begin separate trading, the
Class A common stock and warrants are expected to be listed on
Nasdaq under the symbols “AMHC” and “AMHCW,” respectively.
The Company is a blank check company formed for the purpose of
entering into a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition,
stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with
one or more businesses. While the Company may pursue an initial
business combination target in any business or industry, it intends
to focus its search on target businesses in healthcare or
healthcare related industries in the United States and Europe.
BMO Capital Markets Corp. and SVB Leerink LLC served as
book-running managers for the offering. The Company has granted the
underwriters a 45-day option to purchase up to an additional
1,500,000 units at the initial public offering price to cover
over-allotments, if any.
Of the proceeds received from the consummation of the initial
public offering and a simultaneous private placement of warrants,
$100,000,000 (or $10.00 per unit sold in the public offering) was
placed in trust. An audited balance sheet of the Company as
of November 22, 2019 reflecting receipt of the proceeds upon
consummation of the initial public offering and the private
placement will be included as an exhibit to a Current Report on
Form 8-K to be filed by the Company with the Securities and
Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).
