Greenwich, CT, Nov. 11, 2026 /CourierPR/ -- Southport Acquisition Corp. II, a blank check company formed for mergers and acquisitions, announced today that starting November 16, 2026, holders of the units sold in its initial public offering will be able to separately trade the company’s Class A ordinary shares and warrants. This change will allow investors to trade the shares and warrants independently, providing more flexibility in their investment strategies.
The Class A ordinary shares and warrants that are separated will trade on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbols “PORT” and “PORT WS,” respectively. Units that are not separated will continue to trade under the symbol “PORT U.” This move is part of the company’s ongoing efforts to enhance the liquidity and flexibility of its securities for investors.
Southport Acquisition Corp. II’s management team, led by Jeb Spencer, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Directors, and Griffith Gates, President and Chief Operating Officer, oversees the company’s operations. The board includes independent directors Jared Stone, Matthew Hansen, David Winfield, Cathleen Schreiner-Gates, John Aslanian, and Robert Katz.
The press release notes that this change does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy the securities of the company. It also cautions that such offers, solicitations, or sales would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any state or jurisdiction.
Forward-looking statements in the press release are based on the beliefs of management and assumptions made by the company. Actual results could differ materially from those anticipated due to various factors, as detailed in the company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
This development is part of the company’s ongoing strategy to provide greater flexibility to its investors. Southport Acquisition Corp. II remains focused on identifying and pursuing a business combination target in any business, industry, sector, or geographical location.
