Overview LaFayette Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”, “we”, “our”) is a Cayman Islands exempted company formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization, or similar business combination with one or more businesses. We may pursue a business combination with a target in any industry or geographic region that we believe can benefit from the expertise and capabilities of our management team. The registration statement for the Company’s initial public offering (the “Initial Public Offering”) became effective on October 22, 2025. On October 27, 2025, the Company consummated the Initial Public Offering of 11,500,000 units (the “Units”), including 1,500,000 Units issued pursuant to the exercise of underwriters’ over-allotment option in full. Each Unit consists of one ordinary share, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Ordinary Shares”), and one right (each, a “Right”) entitling the holder thereof to receive one-tenth of one Ordinary Share upon the completion of an initial business combination. The Units were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $115,000,000. Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the private placement of an aggregate of 380,000 units (the “Private Placement Units”) to LaFayette Sponsor LLC (the “Sponsor”) and EarlyBirdCapital, Inc., the representative of the underwriters in the Initial Public Offering (“EBC”) (and its affiliates or permitted assignees) at a price of $10.00 per Private Placement Unit, generating gross proceeds of $3,800,000 (the “Private Placement”). Transaction costs amounted to $6,731,306, consisting of $2,300,000 of cash underwriting fee, $4,025,000 of deferred underwriting fee and $406,306 of other offering costs. Following the closing of the Initial Public Offering, on October 27, 2025, a total of $115,000,000 of the net proceeds from the Initial Public Offering and the Private Placement was placed in a trust account established for the benefit of the Company’s public shareholders (the “Trust Account”), with Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company (“Continental”) acting as trustee. Except with respect to interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account that may be released to the Company to pay its taxes, if any, the funds held in the Trust Account will not be released from the Trust Account until the earliest to occur of: (a) the completion of the Company’s initial business combination, (b) the redemption of all of the Ordinary Shares included in the Units sold in the Initial Public Offering (“public shares”) if the Company is unable to complete its initial business combination within 18 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering or such later time as the shareholders of the Company may approve in accordance with the amended and restated memorandum and articles of association of the Company (the “Amended Articles”), subject to applicable law, and (c) the redemption of any public shares properly tendered in connection with a shareholder vote to amend the Amended Articles (A) to modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to redeem 100% of its public shares if the Company does not complete its initial business combination within 21 months from the closing of the Offering or (B) with respect to any other provision relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-initial business combination activity. Recent Developments On November 21, 2025, the Company issued a press release announcing that the holders of the Units may elect to separately trade the Ordinary Shares and Rights included in the Units commencing on November 26, 2025.
