Playboy, Inc.

Mountain Crest Acquisition Corp, which traded on Nasdaq under the ticker MCAC, was a blank-check company sponsored by Mountain Crest Capital LLC that completed a de-SPAC merger with Playboy Group, the storied consumer lifestyle and media brand, with the combination closing in early 2021. The SPAC registered via an S-1 filing dated May 15, 2020, and subsequently completed its IPO later that year, targeting the consumer and media sector. Following the merger, the combined company rebranded its Nasdaq listing and continued operating Playboy's diversified portfolio of lifestyle, licensing, and digital media businesses. The deal represented one of the higher-profile consumer-brand SPAC transactions of the 2020 wave. For comprehensive data on MCAC, its filings, and the full transaction timeline, sign up for SpacDesk.
