In this episode of The SPAC Podcast, Patrick Sturgeon, Managing Partner at Brookline Capital Markets, explains why some companies may choose a SPAC over a traditional IPO or direct listing. While SPACs are not always the best option, Patrick highlights the unique flexibility they offer for certain situations.

He discusses how SPACs allow companies to phase in capital raising through mechanisms like PIPEs or private placements and to structure features such as earnouts more easily than in a traditional IPO. These tools can provide companies with additional structuring options as they transition from private to public.
