III (NYSE: CLBR) is a Cayman Islands exempted blank-check company structured for the express purpose of effecting a merger, amalgamation, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization, or other similar business combination with one or more operating businesses. Like other SPACs, CLBR is designed with a sponsor/management team that searches for a suitable target while the company’s operational activities prior to a deal are limited.
From a business perspective, CLBR’s core “product” is the access it provides to capital markets to fund a future acquisition rather than the production of an identifiable operating good or service today. The company’s management team (including CEO and chairman of the board, Omeed Malik) oversees the identification, evaluation, and negotiation of potential targets. In practice, this involves industry and company assessment, diligence, deal structuring, and working through regulatory and shareholder approval processes required to complete the initial business combination.
In terms of offerings and financing mechanics, CLBR’s activities center on raising capital through its public listing and later deploying that capital to consummate a transaction. SPACs typically hold raised proceeds in a trust structure until the business combination is completed or the SPAC is otherwise required to return capital, and financial metrics in early periods are commonly minimal because the company has not yet begun operating a standalone operating business. Consistent with that SPAC profile, the available financial ratios and margins for CLBR show limited or non-recurring operating performance.
Cost and “BOM” (bill of materials) considerations for a SPAC primarily relate to deal-search expenses (advisory and diligence), compliance and reporting costs (public company requirements and SEC filings), and compensation/administrative costs for the team while waiting for a transaction. Since CLBR is newly organized, it also carries the overhead of being a listed company without ongoing revenue from operations.
Key people information indicates that Omeed Malik leads the company as CEO (and chairman) since inception. The team is therefore positioned as a sponsor-led vehicle with the primary strategic objective of identifying a compelling acquisition opportunity.
For investors, the “wish list” for a SPAC like CLBR is typically to find a target that can generate sustainable business outcomes and justify the valuation implied by the SPAC’s capital structure, while managing downside protections and timing risk inherent in waiting for a transaction. The stated incorporation year is 2025, and the company is based in Palm Beach, Florida—reflecting its headquarters location even though it is formed as a Cayman exempted company. Currently, CLBR has a very small full-time employee base (approximately 4), consistent with a newly formed SPAC prior to completing a business combination.

Operator: Hello, and thank you for standing by. My name is Bella, and I will be your conference operator today. At this time, I would like to welcome everyone to PSQ Holdings First Quarter 2026 Financial Results Conference Call. [Operator Instructions] I would now like to turn the conference over to William Kent. You may begin.
William Kent: Good morning, and welcome to the PSQ Holdings First Quarter 2026 Earnings Call. Joining me today are Dusty Wunderlich, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer; Mike Pena, our Chief Financial Officer; and Krista Wenzel, our Chief Accounting Officer. Before we begin, please note that the information we discuss today, including our outlook, is current as of today and includes forward-looking statements that involves risks and uncertainties. We are not required to update these statements if new information arises. For details on factors that could cause actual results to differ, please see today's earnings press release and our SEC filings, including our 2025 Form 10-K. We may also present non-GAAP measures alongside financial measures calculated according to GAAP. I'll now hand the call over to Dusty.
Dustin Wunderlich: Thank you, Will, and good morning, everyone. On our year-end call in March, I said you should expect deliberate communication when there is meaningful progress to report. Q1 2026 is meaningful progress. At the end of 2025, we committed to focusing our strategy, being accountable in operations, improving cash efficiency and raising revenue per employee. This quarter's results show we are delivering on those promises. Revenue grew 167% year-over-year during the first quarter. Operating expenses declined 18% Operating loss improved 34%. Payments delivered its largest gross merchandise volume or GMV quarter ever. Credit GMV grew 32% and revenue per employee, our North Star metric, improved 287%. These figures represent actual results, not projections. Krista will walk through the P&L story, and Mike will speak to platform scale, cash and our capital position. At the ROTH Conference in March, a replay is available on our IR site. I said AI adoption was expected to meaningfully change revenue per employee and that we aim to improve this metric every quarter. Q1 is our first data point supporting that thesis. AI continues to be a force multiplier, and we are seeing in real time how it is actively pushing us to redesign and upgrade how we work. Since we first deployed machine learning in Credova's underwriting in 2021, we have expanded its use across engineering, financial operations and risk monitoring. AI agent infrastructure has improved our situational awareness, operational efficiency and accelerated our team's decision-making. With a smaller team and better tools, we are working more efficiently and Q1 reflects it. The restructuring we executed over the past 2 quarters is now fully reflected in our cost structure. We reduced staff by 41% from September 2025 to March 2026, wound down the …
