Athena Technology Acquisition Corp. II Extends SPAC Combination Deadline

What Happened

  • On February 5, 2026, Athena Technology Acquisition Corp. II (ATEK) filed an 8‑K (Item 8.01) reporting it deposited $497.74 into its trust account to extend the deadline to consummate its initial business combination by one month — from February 14, 2026 to March 14, 2026.
  • This Monthly Extension is the sixth of up to nine possible monthly extensions allowed under the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation.

Key Details

  • Deposit amount: $497.74 deposited into the Company’s trust account (February 5, 2026).
  • Extension period: One‑month extension from February 14, 2026 to March 14, 2026.
  • Extension count: Sixth monthly extension of up to nine permitted under the charter.
  • Filed as: 8‑K (Item 8.01 Other Events) on February 5, 2026.

Why It Matters

  • The extension gives ATEK an additional month to identify or close an initial business combination, delaying the deadline that could otherwise force liquidation or other actions.
  • Investors in the SPAC should note the new timeline and that further monthly extensions remain possible (up to nine in total), which affects the expected timing of a merger, acquisition, or liquidation decision.
  • Holders may want to monitor future SEC filings for updates on the company’s search progress, any proposed business combination, or further extensions.
