  • 15 million units priced at $10.00 each, expected to raise $150 million
  • Units include one Class A share and a right to one-quarter of a Class A share upon deal completion; $10.05 per unit will be deposited into a trust account

Disciplined Growth Acquisition Corporation announced the pricing of its initial public offering, setting the sale at 15 million units priced at $10.00 apiece. The offering is expected to generate $150 million in gross proceeds.

Each unit offered consists of one Class A ordinary share plus one right to receive one-fourth of a Class A ordinary share upon completion of the company’s initial business combination. In connection with the offering, the firm will place $10.05 for each unit into a trust account, with Odyssey Transfer and Trust Company named as trustee.

The units are expected to commence trading on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol "DGACU" on May 27, 2026. Following separation into component securities, the Class A ordinary shares and the rights would trade under the symbols "DGAC" and "DGACR," respectively. The offering is anticipated to close on or about May 28, 2026.

Maxim Group LLC is acting as sole book-running manager for the transaction. The company has granted the underwriter a 45-day option to acquire up to an additional 2.25 million units at the IPO price less the underwriting discount to cover potential over-allotments.

Disciplined Growth Acquisition Corporation is organized as a special purpose acquisition company formed to pursue mergers or business combinations. The company said it intends to concentrate its search on financial technology, aerospace and defense technology, clean technology and other sectors, while retaining the flexibility to pursue opportunities in any industry or location.

The management team is led by Chief Executive Officer and Chairman Robert Wotczak and Chief Financial Officer Emma Dell’Acqua. The Securities and Exchange Commission declared the registration statement effective on May 26, 2026.


Context and structure

The offering structure - units convertible into shares and fractional rights, a trust deposit slightly above the unit price and an underwriter over-allotment option - are integral components of the transaction as disclosed. The company’s stated sector focus includes financial technology, aerospace and defense technology and clean technology, while preserving the option to explore combinations across other sectors and geographies.

Risks

  • The underwriter has a 45-day option to purchase up to 2.25 million additional units, which could increase outstanding units and affect shareholder dilution - impacts issuance and equity structure considerations
  • The company is a special purpose acquisition company formed to pursue mergers or business combinations; completion of an initial business combination is a condition for conversion of rights into additional shares, creating execution risk tied to finding and closing a suitable target - relevant to investors considering SPAC timeline and outcome
  • Although the company indicates target sectors (financial technology, aerospace and defense technology, clean technology), it may pursue opportunities in any industry or location, introducing strategic scope risk that could affect sector-focused investors
