General Finance CORP

General Finance Corporation, trading on NASDAQ under the ticker GFN, was originally organized as a blank-check special purpose acquisition company and completed its IPO in 2006. The company targeted acquisitions in the modular space and portable storage sector, subsequently building a portfolio that included North American operations through Pac-Van and Asia-Pacific exposure through Royal Wolf Holdings. The May 2013 Form 424B1 filing — a final prospectus submitted under SEC Rule 424(b)(1) — reflects a securities offering undertaken several years after the company had transitioned from blank-check status into a fully operational specialty leasing enterprise. By that point GFN had completed its de-SPAC evolution and was actively expanding its modular and portable-storage footprint.
