Stardust Power Inc.

Stardust Power Inc. (Nasdaq: SDST) is a domestic lithium refining company that entered public markets through a SPAC merger with Global Star Acquisition Corp, which completed its IPO in 2022. Sponsored by Global Star Sponsor LLC, the vehicle targeted the battery materials and clean-energy supply chain sector, reflecting sustained institutional interest in domestic critical-mineral processing ahead of electric-vehicle demand growth. As of its 10-Q filed November 14, 2023 (accession 0001213900-23-086990), the company was operating in the pre-revenue development stage, advancing plans for a U.S.-based lithium refinery. Stardust Power's combination with the SPAC subsequently closed in mid-2024. For full filing history, financials, and SPAC deal analytics on SDST, sign up for SpacDesk at spacdesk.com.
