NEW YORK, Sept. 29, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- FutureCrest Acquisition Corp. (the "Company") announced today the closing of its initial public offering of 28,750,000 units, which includes 3,750,000 units issued pursuant to the exercise in full by the underwriters of their over-allotment option. The offering was priced at $10.00 per unit, resulting in gross proceeds of $287,500,000.

The Company's units began trading on September 26, 2025 on the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") under the ticker symbol "FCRS.U." Each unit consists of one Class A ordinary share of the Company and one-quarter of one redeemable warrant, with each whole warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one Class A ordinary share of the Company at an exercise price of $11.50 per share, subject to certain adjustments. No fractional warrants will be issued upon separation of the units and only whole warrants will trade. Once the securities constituting the units begin separate trading, the Class A ordinary shares and warrants are expected to be listed on NYSE under the symbols "FCRS" and "FCRS WS," respectively.

Of the proceeds received from the consummation of the initial public offering (including the exercise of the over-allotment option) and a simultaneous private placement of warrants, $287,500,000 (or $10.00 per unit sold in the offering) was placed in a trust account of the Company.
