General Finance CORP

General Finance Corporation, trading under the ticker GFN on the Nasdaq Capital Market, was a blank check company that completed its initial public offering in 2006 after registering via an S-1 filing in November 2005. The vehicle was principally led by Ronald F. Valenta, who served as chief executive and drove the company's strategic focus on the modular space and portable storage leasing sector across Asia-Pacific and North American markets. Following its de-SPAC transaction, General Finance assembled an operating platform through acquisitions including Royal Wolf Holdings in Australia and Pac-Van in North America. The company remained publicly traded until 2021, when United Rentals completed its acquisition of General Finance.
