Market Technology Acquisition Corp Announces Closing of $205,000,000 Initial Public Offering, Including Partial Exercise of Underwriters’ Over-Allotment Option

New York, New York, July 27, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Market Technology Acquisition Corp (the “Company”), a newly organized special purpose acquisition company formed as a Cayman Islands exempted company, today announced the closing of its initial public offering of 20,500,000 units (the “IPO”), which includes 500,000 units issued pursuant to the partial exercise by the underwriters of their over-allotment option, at an offering price of $10.00 per unit, resulting in gross proceeds of $205,000,000.

The units began trading on the Global Market tier of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) under the ticker symbol “MTAKU” on July 24, 2026. Each unit consists of one Class A ordinary share and one-half of one redeemable warrant. Each whole warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one Class A ordinary share at $11.50 per share. No fractional warrants will be issued upon separation of the units and only whole warrants will trade. Once the securities comprising the units begin separate trading, the ordinary shares and the warrants are expected to be traded on Nasdaq under the symbols “MTAK” and “MTAKW,” respectively.

The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the offering after expenses, and the simultaneous private placements of units, to consummate the Company’s initial business combination and for working capital following the offering.

BTIG, LLC is acting as sole book-running manager for the offering.

A registration statement relating to the securities sold in the initial public offering was declared effective by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on July 23, 2026. The offering was made only by means of a prospectus, copies of which may be obtained from: BTIG, LLC, 65 East 55th Street, New York, New York 10022, or by email at ProspectusDelivery@btig.com, or by accessing the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.
