GRAND CAYMAN, Cayman Islands, Dec. 05, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Activate Energy Acquisition Corp. (Nasdaq: AEAQU) (the “Company”) today announced that it closed its initial public offering of 23,000,000 units at $10.00 per unit, including the issuance of 3,000,000 units as result of the underwriters’ exercise of its over-allotment option in full. The gross proceeds from the offering were $230 million before deducting underwriting discounts and estimated offering expenses. The units began trading on The Nasdaq Global Market tier of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) under the ticker symbol “AEAQU” on December 4, 2025.

Each unit consists of one Class A ordinary share and one-half of one redeemable warrant.

The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the offering, and the simultaneous private placements of units and warrants, to consummate the Company’s initial business combination.
