Valuence Merger Corp. I 8-K

What Happened
Valuence Merger Corp. I (VMCAF) filed an 8-K on January 5, 2026 announcing that its board approved a one-month extension of the deadline to consummate an initial business combination, moving the deadline from January 3, 2026 to February 3, 2026. The Company deposited an additional $28,011 into its trust account in connection with this extension. This is the 18th of up to 19 possible one-month extensions available under the Company’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association; the charter allows monthly extensions up to March 3, 2026 by board resolution.

Key Details

• New deadline to complete an initial business combination: February 3, 2026.
• Prior deadline (before extension): January 3, 2026.
• Additional trust deposit made: $28,011.
• This is the 18th of 19 potential one-month extensions; final allowable extension goes to March 3, 2026.

Why It Matters
The extension gives Valuence Merger Corp. I one more month to find and close a qualifying merger or acquisition, while slightly increasing the cash in the trust account that backs public shareholders’ potential redemptions. Investors should note there is only one remaining monthly extension available under the company’s charter (to March 3, 2026), so further extensions or a definitive business combination announcement would be material developments to monitor.
