Item 8.01 Other Events.
On August 19, 2026, Karman Line Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) completed (i) its initial public offering (the “IPO”) of 20,000,000 units (the “Units”), at an offering price of $10.00 per Unit and (ii) a private placement of 650,000 private placement units with FDB II and certain underwriters of the IPO at a price of $10.00 per unit (the “Private Placement”).
The net proceeds from the IPO, together with certain of the proceeds from the Private Placement, totaling $200,000,000 in the aggregate, were placed in a trust account (the “Trust Account”) with Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company established for the benefit of the Company’s public shareholders and the underwriter of the IPO. Except for the withdrawal of interest earned on the amounts in the Trust Account to fund the Company’s taxes, or upon the redemption by public shareholders of Class A ordinary shares in connection with certain amendments to the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, none of the funds held in the Trust Account will be released until the completion of the Company’s initial business combination or the redemption by the Company of 100% of the outstanding Class A ordinary shares issued by the Company in the IPO if the Company does not consummate an initial business combination within 21 months after the closing of the IPO.
An audited balance sheet as of August 19, 2026, reflecting receipt of the proceeds upon consummation of the IPO and Private Placement has been issued by the Company and is included as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
