In the combined offering, investors in the PSUS IPO will receive PSI shares at no additional consideration (20 PSI shares per 100 PSUS shares bought).
Resolved true The record shows it happened or was so.
Promise: Commitments to the person's or organisation's own future action, with something to deliver: was it delivered?
Said for an organisation they lead or work for; it counts on both records.
What would count as true or false
Judge when the PSUS IPO and the combined offering close. TRUE: the PSUS IPO was completed and the investors who bought in it received PSI shares at no extra charge, at 20 PSI shares per 100 PSUS shares, as shown by the final prospectus and the closing or allocation announcements. MOSTLY TRUE: investors received PSI shares at no extra charge, but at a ratio slightly different from 20 per 100 (for example because of rounding or a small change to the terms). MOSTLY FALSE: PSI shares were given only to some IPO investors, required extra payment, or were delivered only after a long delay or on substantially changed terms. FALSE: the IPO was completed without any free PSI share distribution, or the combined offering was withdrawn or cancelled so that no investors received PSI shares.

E7 Pershing Square (NYSE: PS) sets $350M credit lines and $250M PSUS Anchor Investment StockTitan (reproducing Pershing Square Inc. Form 8-K filed with the SEC) · 1 May 2026 Own record
“the Company delivered to each initial investor in the PSUS IPO, for no additional consideration, 1 share of Common Stock for every 5 PSUS Common Shares purchased in the PSUS IPO.”
Reasoning
The offering letter set the term at 20 PSI shares for every 100 PSUS shares bought in the IPO, at no additional cost (E1, E4). The company's closing announcement and a law firm's note confirm that the combined IPO closed (E2, E3). Pershing Square Inc.'s Form 8-K states that the company delivered to each initial PSUS IPO investor, for no additional consideration, 1 share for every 5 PSUS shares bought, which equals 20 per 100 (E7). An independent deal report says the same (E6).
