Ogier in Guernsey has advised dMY Technology
Group Inc II (dMY II), a publicly traded
special purpose acquisition company (SPAC), on its
agreement to combine with UK based Genius Sports Group Limited
(GSG), a leading provider of sports data and
technology powering the sports, betting and media market
ecosystem.
As a result of the business combination, GSG and dMY II
shareholders will exchange their shares for shares in a new
Guernsey combined company which will be publicly listed on the New
York Stock Exchange.
The transaction implies a pro forma enterprise value of
approximately $1.5 billion. In addition, a group of
institutional and experienced industry investors has committed to
participate in a related ordinary share PIPE (private investment in
public equity) financing of approximately $330 million. The
transaction is subject to closing conditions and is expected to
close in the first quarter of 2021.
Partner Bryon Rees, managing associate Richard Doyle and
consultant Michaela Jesson advised, supporting US and UK teams from
lead counsel for dMY II, White & Case LLP, and lead counsel for
GSG, Kirkland & Ellis LLP.
