SPAC definition and fundamentals
1One of the ways SPACs raise money is by selling warrants, shares of the target company at a price set in advance (often $10/share)—the SEC released a statement on April 12
around the classification of warrants as equity vs. liabilities, which has caused some SPACs to have to re-state their financials

WHAT IS A SPAC?
Special purpose acquisition companies (SPACs) involve a group of people forming a “blank check company,” or a shell company
with no operations, raising money through an IPO, and using those funds to acquire a private company; the SPAC process
completes when the acquired private company becomes publicly listed
Key nuances of SPAC deal-making:
Time to acquire: SPACs generally have up to two years to carry out an acquisition before they must return funds
to investors
Mandate to spend: SPACs have to acquire a target company with fair market value of at least 80% of the
SPAC’s funds—called the trust value
SEC’s watchful eye: after observing explosive SPAC activity in recent months, the SEC has released guidance
around scrutinizing SPACs comparably to IPOs and adjusting the accounting of warrants1

What this all means: SPACs are delivering more liquidity in digital health, faster
11
Source: Rock Health analysis
SPAC targets are slightly less mature than IPO candidates
SPAC sponsors are targeting digital health companies with less funding and experience than those exiting through an IPO
Sponsors will have to dig deep to find appropriately mature targets
There is a potential supply-demand mismatch between healthcare-focused SPAC sponsors and targets in digital health
This is a wake-up call for other organizations looking to acquire digital health companies
Organizations interested in strategic digital health acquisition should prepare for more competition
More digital health companies are going public than ever before, with SPACs leading
2021 is set to outpace the past two years (combined) in digital health public exits with >80% attributed to SPAC mergers
CRUISE OR COLLISION COURSE: WHAT SPACS MEAN FOR DIGITAL HEALTH
SPAC vs IPO is a serious tradeoff to make for a management team
There are pros and cons to each, but both options lead to you becoming a publicly traded company, pursue only if ready

  • 4. PRESENTATION © 2021 ROCK HEALTH SPAC definition and fundamentals 1One of the ways SPACs raise money is by selling warrants, shares of the target company at a price set in advance (often $10/share)—the SEC released a statement on April 12 around the classification of warrants as equity vs. liabilities, which has caused some SPACs to have to re-state their financials Source: Rock Health analysis 4 WHAT IS A SPAC? Special purpose acquisition companies (SPACs) involve a group of people forming a “blank check company,” or a shell company with no operations, raising money through an IPO, and using those funds to acquire a private company; the SPAC process completes when the acquired private company becomes publicly listed Key nuances of SPAC deal-making: Time to acquire: SPACs generally have up to two years to carry out an acquisition before they must return funds to investors Mandate to spend: SPACs have to acquire a target company with fair market value of at least 80% of the SPAC’s funds—called the trust value SEC’s watchful eye: after observing explosive SPAC activity in recent months, the SEC has released guidance around scrutinizing SPACs comparably to IPOs and adjusting the accounting of warrants1 TRAINING WHEELS: WHAT’S A SPAC?
