("GSRM" or the "Company") announced today that it closed its initial public offering of 31,625,000 units at a price of $10.00 per unit for aggregate gross proceeds of $316,250,000.

GSRM is a newly incorporated, blank check company formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses. While the Company may pursue an initial business combination target in any business or industry, it intends to focus on high-growth businesses in the software, technology-enabled manufacturing and services, mobility and transportation sectors, as well as companies that help to address evolving environmental, social and governance related issues. This includes, but is not limited to, companies that are focused on: automation components and systems, robotics, mobility and autonomous motion, additive manufacturing, next-generation transportation and technologies for clean food, water and air. GSRM is led by co-CEOs Gus Garcia and Lewis Silberman, President Anantha Ramamurti and CFO Joseph Tonnos. The Company was formed in partnership with Meteora Capital, an investment adviser specializing in SPAC-related investments.

The units are listed on the Nasdaq Global Market ("Nasdaq") and began trading under the ticker symbol "GSRMU" on February 25, 2022. Once the securities comprising the units begin separate trading, the Class A common stock, warrants and rights are expected to be listed on the Nasdaq under the symbols "GSRM," "GSRMW" and "GSRMR," respectively.
