Skyline and Cove Kaz end SPAC merger, Skyline to receive 26% stake valued over $500 million

Skyline Builders Group Holding Ltd. and Cove Kaz Capital Group mutually terminated their previously announced business combination on 2 Nov 2026. Cove Kaz secured a $32 million capital commitment at $8 per share, implying an equity valuation of roughly $2 billion. Under the termination, Skyline will acquire about 63,994,955 Cove Kaz shares, representing a 26% ownership stake valued at more than $500 million, which it plans to distribute to its shareholders. Cove Kaz intends to pursue a direct listing on a U.S. exchange in the first half of 2027 and Skyline will seek new acquisition targets in the critical‑minerals sector.

The distribution of the Cove Kaz stake will provide Skyline shareholders with exposure to a $2 billion‑valued critical‑minerals company, potentially enhancing shareholder value. Skyline’s shift to a share‑holding model and its search for additional M&A targets may reshape its growth trajectory, as noted by the company’s own statements.
