Black Spade Acquisition II Co (the “Company”) (NASDAQ: BSIIU), a special purpose acquisition company (“SPAC”), today announced the closing of its previously announced initial public offering of 15,000,000 units at a price of $10.00 per unit, for aggregate gross proceeds to the Company of $150,000,000.

The Company has granted the underwriters a 45-day option to purchase up to an additional 2,250,000 units at an offering price of $10.00 per unit to cover over-allotments, if any.

The Company is sponsored by an affiliate of Black Spade Capital Limited, the private investment arm of Mr. Lawrence Ho, Chairman & CEO of Melco Resorts & Entertainment Limited (NASDAQ: MLCO) and Director of Studio City International Holdings Limited (NYSE: MSC). All officers and directors of the Company participated in the Initial Public Offering and subsequent business combination of Black Spade Acquisition Co (“BSAQ”), a SPAC also sponsored by an affiliate of Black Spade Capital Limited.

Clear Street LLC and Cohen & Company Capital Markets, a division of J.V.B. Financial Group, LLC, acted as joint book-running managers. Latham & Watkins LLP served as legal counsel to the Company. Loeb & Loeb LLP served as legal counsel to the underwriters.
