Chenghe Acquisition III Co. Releases 2025 Annual Report: Detailed Insights for Investors

GRAND CAYMAN, March 25, 2026 – Chenghe Acquisition III Co. has published its 2025 Annual Report, providing a comprehensive update on its business strategy, risk factors, and operational outlook. The report contains several key points that are relevant for current and prospective investors, particularly those interested in the company’s ongoing search for a business combination target and its unique position in the market.

Key Points from the Annual Report

• Company Overview:
  • Chenghe Acquisition III Co. is a blank check company (also known as a SPAC) incorporated in the Cayman Islands. Its primary purpose is to effect a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization, or similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities.
  • The company has not yet selected a specific target for a business combination and has not engaged in substantive discussions with any targets.
• Business Strategy:
  • Intends to leverage its management’s experience to identify and acquire growing companies in Asian markets or global businesses with an Asian presence.
  • Focus areas include companies that can benefit from the team’s expertise in deal sourcing, operational improvement, and capital markets access.
  • Chenghe Group’s network is highlighted as a unique source of proprietary deal flow and investment opportunities.
  • The company emphasizes its ability to help target companies expand into Greater China and other Asian markets, secure funding, and improve operations.
  • Targets are expected to have robust corporate governance and be “public-ready,” with the potential to benefit from public market scrutiny and capital access.
• Risk Factors and Shareholder Considerations:
  • Shareholders may not have the opportunity to vote on a proposed business combination. Even if a vote occurs, the company’s initial shareholders, sponsors, and management have agreed to vote in favor, which may influence the outcome.
  • Shareholders have redemption rights for their Class A ordinary shares upon completion of a business combination, at a per-share price reflecting the trust account balance.
  • Should the company fail to complete a business combination within a specified window, it will redeem 100% of public shares, and warrants will expire worthless.
  • There are notable legal and operational risks due to co-sponsors’ connections with China. PRC laws can be vague, and government intervention could materially impact operations or the ability to list or maintain a listing on a U.S. exchange.
  • Changes in global trade policy, inflation, interest rates, or geopolitical conflicts (e.g., Ukraine, Middle East) may affect market conditions and the ability to complete a business combination.
  • The company is subject to U.S. securities laws but is exempt from “blank check” company rules such as SEC Rule 419, resulting in fewer restrictions and protections for investors.
  • If the company is deemed an investment company under the Investment Company Act, it could face significant compliance costs and restrictions, potentially impairing its ability to complete a business combination.
  • Adverse developments in the financial services industry or failures of financial institutions holding trust account funds could impact the value of assets and redemption amounts for shareholders.
• Financial Reporting and Compliance:
  • The company is an “emerging growth company” and a “smaller reporting company,” allowing for reduced disclosure obligations and only two years of audited financials, which may impact investor perception.
  • Chenghe Acquisition III Co. has no material litigation, arbitration, or governmental proceedings pending against it or its management.
  • It is subject to enhanced SEC rules for SPACs effective July 1, 2024, including increased disclosure, limitations on projections, and greater liability for participants in business combination transactions. This could increase costs and potentially impact the timing and feasibility of a deal.
• Potential Price-Sensitive Issues:
  • Legal and regulatory risks associated with China-based sponsors could result in significant changes to operations, the value of securities, or even the ability to maintain a U.S. listing.
  • High redemption levels or failure to complete a business combination could lead to liquidation of the trust account and loss of value for warrant holders.
  • Changes in SEC regulations, macroeconomic conditions, or global events could cause volatility in the share price or impact the likelihood of a successful business combination.
  • The company’s ability to raise additional capital, if required, could lead to significant dilution for existing shareholders or the incurrence of debt with senior rights.

Shareholder Actions and Voting

• Shareholders are reminded of their right to redeem shares upon completion of a business combination or if an amendment to the redemption window is proposed.
• Co-sponsors, initial shareholders, and management have significant influence over voting outcomes regarding the business combination.
• Purchases of shares by insiders to influence voting or meet closing conditions are permitted, provided they comply with SEC rules. Such purchases could reduce the public float and impact share price volatility.

Regulatory and Legal Framework

• Company is governed by Cayman Islands law, with certain shareholder rights and director duties defined by common law.
• Financial statements for any target business must be prepared to U.S. standards (GAAP or IFRS) and likely audited under PCAOB rules, which may limit the pool of eligible targets.
• The company intends to remain subject to U.S. reporting requirements and does not plan to file a Form 15 to suspend obligations under the Exchange Act prior to or after the business combination.

Outlook

Chenghe Acquisition III Co. remains focused on identifying a compelling business combination target, leveraging its experienced team and unique access to Asian markets. However, investors should be aware of the substantial risks and uncertainties, particularly those related to regulatory changes, geopolitical tensions, and the evolving SPAC landscape. Any developments in these areas, or announcements related to a potential target, could be material and lead to significant share price movements.
