On February 25, 2026, Spring Valley Acquisition Corp. IV (the “Company”) announced that the holders of the Company’s units sold in the Company’s initial public offering (the “Units”) may elect to separately trade the Class A ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class A ordinary shares”), and warrants (the “Warrants”) included in the Units commencing on March 2, 2026. Each Unit consists of one Class A ordinary share, and one-fourth of one redeemable warrant (each, a “Warrant”), each whole Warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one Class A Ordinary Share at an exercise price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment. Any Units not separated will continue to trade on the Nasdaq Global Market (“Nasdaq”) under the symbol “SVIVU”. Any underlying Class A ordinary shares and Warrants that are separated will trade on Nasdaq under the symbols “SVIV” and “SVIVW”, respectively. Holders of Units will need to have their brokers contact Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, the Company’s transfer agent, in order to separate the holders’ Units into Class A ordinary shares and Warrants.
