De-SPACs and Projections - A Discussion with Jim Zukin and Christian Nagler

SPACs and the use of projections have gotten a fair amount of
attention this year from both the media and the SEC. And, the
pending SEC SPAC Rule could have an additional effect on how
bankers and SPAC teams handle projections in the future.


However, Jim Zukin, of Zukin Certification Services ("ZCS"), and
Christian Nagler, a partner at Kirkland & Ellis, join us to
break it all down and give us some context as to how projections
have been used in the past, as well as how they're currently
being addressed given the current regulatory landscape.


Jim also discusses the Reasonable Basis Review, or "RBR", which
was created to provide a review of an operating company's
projections as an additional layer of diligence by a third party
in IPOs and M&A transactions. In fact, the RBR is already in
use in a number of De-SPAC transactions.


Join us to hear more about what SPACs can expect from the use of
projections going forward.
