Wattles Acquisition Corp

Wattles Acquisition Corp is a blank-check special purpose acquisition company that filed an S-1/A registration amendment with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on March 24, 2008, placing it among the cohort of SPACs that emerged during the pre-financial-crisis issuance wave. The vehicle was sponsored by retail entrepreneur Mark Wattles, best known as the founder of Hollywood Video, and targeted acquisition opportunities in the consumer and retail sectors. The company pursued its IPO in 2008 and, as with many SPACs from that vintage, has since concluded its active lifecycle.
