Kensington Capital Acquisition Corp. IV (NYSE: KCA-UN) operates as a special purpose acquisition company, or SPAC, focused on effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization, or similar business combination, primarily targeting businesses in the global automotive and automotive-related sector; it offers no operational products or services beyond its SPAC structure, including Class A ordinary shares, public warrants, and units comprising one share and one-half of one warrant. Founded in 2021 and headquartered at 1400 Old Country Road, Suite 301, Westbury, New York, the company completed a $230 million initial public offering in March 2022, raising proceeds held in trust for a future business combination. In September 2022, Kensington entered into and closed a definitive business combination with Amprius Technologies, Inc., a developer of high-energy density lithium-ion batteries using silicon nanowire anode technology; the transaction provided Amprius with approximately $87 million in gross proceeds, after which Amprius' shares began trading on the NYSE under the ticker AMPX, effectively completing Kensington's purpose as a SPAC. As of late 2025, the KCA-UN units continue to trade on the NYSE, reflecting approximately $9.11 per unit with no reported liquidation or further redemptions specific to this entity, unlike related Kensington SPACs such as Corp. V. The company maintains a management team led by Chairman and CEO Justin Mirro, Vice Chairman Dieter Zetsche, and independent directors including Tom LaSorda and others experienced in automotive sectors.
