Rainier Acquisition Corporation Announces Pricing of $75,000,000 Initial Public Offering

NEW YORK, Aug. 26, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Rainier Acquisition Corporation (the “Company”) announced today that it priced its initial public offering of 7,500,000 units consisting of one Class A ordinary share and one-quarter of one redeemable warrant at a price of $10.00 per unit. The offering is expected to generate gross proceeds of $75,000,000 before underwriting discounts and offering expenses. Each whole warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one Class A ordinary share at a price of $11.50 per share. No fractional warrants will be issued upon separation of the units, and only whole warrants will trade. The units are expected to be listed on The Nasdaq Capital Market and trade under the ticker symbol “RNAQU” beginning August 27, 2026. Once the securities comprising the units begin separate trading, the Class A ordinary shares and warrants are expected to be listed on The Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbols “RNAQ” and “RNAQW,” respectively. The offering is expected to close on August 28, 2026, subject to customary closing conditions.

The Company is a special purpose acquisition company formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, amalgamation, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses. The Company intends to focus its search on the global life sciences industries, including therapeutics, diagnostics, genomics, precision medicine, life science tools, research services, biomanufacturing, and related subsectors, although its efforts to identify a prospective target business will not be limited to any particular industry or geographical region. The Company’s management team is led by Gbola Amusa, MD, CFA, Chief Executive Officer, and Guy Barudin, Chief Financial Officer.

Chardan is acting as the sole book-running manager for the offering. The Company has granted the underwriter a 45-day option to purchase up to an additional 1,125,000 units at the initial public offering price to cover over-allotments, if any.

The offering is being made only by means of a prospectus. Copies of the prospectus may be obtained from Chardan, 1 Pennsylvania Plaza, Suite 4800, New York, New York 10119, or by email at: prospectus@chardan.com.

This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy, nor shall there be any sale of these securities in any State or jurisdiction in which such an offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such State or jurisdiction.
