IPO Details#
West Enclave Merger Corp. has announced the pricing of its initial public offering (IPO) at $10 per unit, aiming to raise a total of $100 million. The company plans to offer 10 million units, which are expected to start trading on April 30, 2026, on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol "WENC U."
Company Focus#
West Enclave is a special purpose acquisition company (SPAC), which means it is formed specifically to merge with or acquire existing businesses. The company intends to target businesses operating in Latin America or U.S.-based companies that can benefit from economic ties with Latin America, especially Mexico.

Each unit in this IPO consists of one ordinary share and one right. The right allows the holder to receive one-tenth of an ordinary share once the company completes its first business combination. After the units begin trading separately, the ordinary shares and rights will be listed under the symbols "WENC" and "WENC RT," respectively.
Underwriting and Closing#
EarlyBirdCapital, Inc. is the sole book-running manager for this offering. The underwriters have a 45-day option to purchase up to 1.5 million additional units at the IPO price to manage any over-allotments. The offering is expected to close around May 1, 2026, pending standard closing conditions. A registration statement for the securities became effective on April 29, 2026.
