Suncrete and Haymaker Acquisition Corp. 4 Announce Entering Into Non-Redemption Agreements with Certain Institutional Investors

MWN-AI** Summary

On March 25, 2026, Suncrete and Haymaker Acquisition Corp. 4 announced the initiation of non-redemption agreements with select institutional investors ahead of their impending business combination. Suncrete, a ready-mix concrete logistics and distribution company operating in Oklahoma and Arkansas, will undergo a merger with Haymaker, a publicly traded Special Purpose Acquisition Company (SPAC).

Under the non-redemption agreements, institutional investors committed to purchasing a total of 4.4 million Class A ordinary shares of Haymaker from its current shareholders. These agreements allow the investors to acquire the shares at a maximum price equal to the redemption price available to public shareholders, while also agreeing to waive redemption rights and abstain from voting regarding the business combination. To incentivize these transactions, Suncrete has promised to compensate selling shareholders with the difference between the actual redemption price and the agreed sale price to the investors, likely resulting in approximately $10.75 net proceeds per non-redeemed share.

This strategic move underscores investor confidence in Suncrete's business model and growth potential. Suncrete aims to solidify its position in the fast-expanding U.S. Sunbelt construction market, leveraging a vertically integrated logistics platform and a robust operational framework. The anticipated completion of the business combination and a concurrent PIPE investment of $105.5 million is expected to allow Suncrete to meet its minimum cash conditions prior to closing.

The merger is projected to finalize in April 2026, after which the combined entity will operate as Suncrete, Inc. and list on Nasdaq under the ticker "RMIX." Suncrete's Executive Chairman, Ned N. Fleming, III, emphasized the company's commitment to delivering long-term shareholder value through disciplined growth and market expansion strategies.

MWN-AI** Analysis

The recent announcement by Suncrete and Haymaker Acquisition Corp. 4 regarding their non-redemption agreements with institutional investors is a pivotal development that signals strong market confidence in the combined entity's future potential. With Haymaker’s looming merger with Suncrete set for April 2026, this strategic move not only shores up financial stability but also suggests an optimistic outlook for potential shareholders.

The non-redemption agreements, where investors agree to acquire a substantial number of Class A ordinary shares, are crucial. By agreeing to waive redemption rights, these investors are signaling trust in the inherent value of Suncrete’s operational model and growth trajectory. Notably, the projected net proceeds of approximately $10.75 per non-redeemed share indicate a strong valuation backing, which can bolster investor sentiment as the deal closes.

Suncrete operates within the attractive ready-mix concrete market, capitalizing on infrastructure development trends in the U.S. Sunbelt. Its business model, based on a decentralized plant network and efficient logistics, positions it well to gain market share as construction demands increase. The anticipated benefits from the PIPE investment further enhance prospects, potentially providing a substantial cash cushion post-merger.

Investors considering Suncrete (NYSE: RMIX) should focus on the prevailing trends in construction and infrastructure spending. While the immediate market reaction may depend on the completion of the merger and investor redemptions, the long-term outlook remains positive due to the company’s strategic growth initiatives.

However, risks remain, including the completion of the merger process, market volatility, and operational challenges post-acquisition. As always, due diligence is essential, and prospective investors should monitor upcoming developments closely to align investment strategies accordingly.

DALLAS, March 25, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Concrete Partners Holding, LLC ("Suncrete" or the "Company"), a ready-mix concrete logistics and distribution platform strategically located in Oklahoma and Arkansas, and Haymaker Acquisition Corp. 4 (NYSE: HYAC) ("Haymaker"), a publicly traded special purpose acquisition company, today announced that they have entered into non-redemption agreements ("Non-Redemption Agreements") with certain institutional investors, pursuant to which, among other things, the investors agreed to acquire an aggregate of 4.4 million Class A ordinary shares of Haymaker initially included as part of the units sold in Haymaker's initial public offering ("Public Shares") from shareholders of Haymaker, either in the open market or through privately negotiated transactions, at a price no higher than the redemption price per share payable to public shareholders who exercise redemption rights with respect to their Public Shares, prior to the closing date of the Company's business combination with Haymaker ("Business Combination"), to waive their redemption rights and hold the Public Shares through the closing date of the Business Combination, and to abstain from voting and not vote the Public Shares in favor of or against the Business Combination.

Suncrete intends to pay to the shareholders that sell Public Shares in connection with the Non-Redemption Agreements an amount equal to the difference between the actual redemption price for the Public Shares and the price at which such sellers sell the Public Shares to the Investors. As a result of the Non-Redemption Agreements and after giving effect to the aggregate fees that Suncrete has agreed to pay the Investors, Haymaker is expected to receive net proceeds of approximately $10.75 per non-redeemed Public Share. Haymaker may enter into additional Non-Redemption agreements on similar terms. Assuming that the Investors acquire all of the Public Shares they have agreed to purchase and that the previously announced PIPE investment is consummated for aggregate proceeds of $105.5M, the parties anticipate that the Minimum Cash Condition will be satisfied upon consummation of the Business Combination.

The Company is expected to close its previously announced Business Combination with Haymaker in April 2026. Upon closing of the Business Combination, the combined company will be named Suncrete, Inc. ("PubCo") and is expected to trade on Nasdaq under the ticker symbol "RMIX."

Ned N. Fleming, III, Executive Chairman of Suncrete, commented, "Today's announcement underscores strong institutional investor confidence in Suncrete, our best-in-class management team, and our high-performance, scalable ready-mix concrete platform. We believe Suncrete's disciplined growth strategy focused on increasing market share, driving organic expansion, and entering new markets through accretive acquisitions, positions the company to deliver sustained, compounding shareholder value over the long term."
