Cantor Equity Partners II Inc (NASDAQ: CEPT) is a blank-check special purpose acquisition company (SPAC) sponsored by an affiliate of Cantor Fitzgerald, L.P. that was formed to identify and complete a business combination with a target company. It generates no operating revenue; its only financial activity prior to a business combination is interest income on investments held in a Trust Account funded by its Initial Public Offering proceeds. The company completed its IPO and simultaneously sold 580,000 Class A ordinary shares to its Sponsor in a private placement at $10.00 per share, generating $5,800,000 in gross proceeds from that placement (as of December 31, 2025). On October 27, 2025, CEPT entered into a Business Combination Agreement with Securitize, with a Combination Period extending to May 5, 2027. No cash dividends have been paid on ordinary shares as of the 10-K filed March 6, 2026.

Products and services

CEPT offers no commercial products or services. Its sole assets are IPO proceeds held in a Trust Account invested in available-for-sale debt securities, and the right to pursue a business combination.
