FORM 10-K FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2025

Republic Digital Acquisition Company filed its Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025. The company reported a market value of its outstanding Class A Ordinary Shares of $321 million as of June 30, 2025. As of March 26, 2026, there were 30 million Class A Ordinary Shares and 7.5 million Class B Ordinary Shares issued and outstanding. The company did not provide detailed financial information in this filing, but it is likely that the report will include financial statements and other information required by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

Overview

Republic Acquisition Corp. is a blank check company incorporated in the Cayman Islands on January 23, 2025 for the purpose of effecting a business combination. The company’s sponsor is Republic Sponsor 1 LLC, and it is focusing its search for a target business on industries that complement the management team’s background in fintech, software, and cryptocurrency.

Financial Performance

Republic Acquisition Corp. has not engaged in any operations or generated any revenues to date. Its only activities since inception have been organizational activities and those related to the initial public offering (IPO) and identifying and evaluating potential acquisition targets. The company generated net income of $7,718,712 for the period from January 23, 2025 (inception) through December 31, 2025, which consisted primarily of earnings from investments held in the trust account.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Following the IPO, including the partial exercise of the over-allotment option, and the private placement, a total of $300,000,000 was initially placed in the trust account. The company incurred $18,629,500 in fees and expenses related to the offering.

As of December 31, 2025, the company had $308,053,817 in marketable securities held in the trust account, including $8,053,817 in interest income. The company intends to use substantially all of the funds held in the trust account to complete its business combination.

The company’s liquidity needs through December 31, 2025 have been satisfied through a $25,000 contribution from the sponsor, a loan pursuant to the IPO promissory note, and the net proceeds from the private placement not held in the trust account.

Strengths and Weaknesses

The key strengths of Republic Acquisition Corp. are its significant cash reserves held in the trust account and the experience of its management team in the fintech, software, and cryptocurrency industries. However, as a blank check company, the company faces the risk of being unable to identify and complete a suitable business combination within the required timeframe, which could result in the liquidation of the trust account and the dissolution of the company.

Outlook

The company has until May 1, 2027 (24 months from the closing of the IPO) to consummate a business combination. If it is unable to do so, it will cease operations and redeem the public shares, liquidating the trust account. The company may seek to extend the combination period by amending its articles, but this would require shareholder approval and could affect its ability to maintain its Nasdaq listing.

Overall, Republic Acquisition Corp. is in a strong financial position with significant cash reserves, but faces the challenge of identifying and completing a suitable business combination within the required timeframe.
