Release 24.3: On September 16, 2024, EDGAR Release 24.3 introduced the following changes:
EDGAR Filing Website Updates for Release 24.3
• | On Jan. 24, 2024, the SEC adopted rules related to initial public offerings by special purpose acquisition companies ("SPACs") and subsequent business combination transactions between SPACs and private operating companies ("de-SPAC transactions"). Under the rules, the private operating company in a de-SPAC transaction would be, in some instances, a co-registrant for purposes of the registration statement filed in connection with the de-SPAC transaction. EDGAR will be updated to permit co-registrants in a draft registration statement submission. See Special Purpose Acquisition Companies, Shell Companies, and Projections, Release No. 33-11265 (Jan. 24, 2024). See also Chapter 7 of the EDGAR Filer Manual, Vol. II. |
• | The "Request Return of Unused Funds" webpage on the EDGAR Filing Website will be updated to remove the current "Check" refund payment method. Filers may now request a return of unused account funds via "ACH" or "WIRE". |
Filers located in the United States or using a US Bank which supports ACH must select "ACH Payment". Alternatively, filers who are located internationally or using a bank that does not support ACH must select "WIRE Payment." Filers are responsible for any WIRE fees charged by their financial institution. |

Quarterly financial resource reports and amendments, and financial resource reports pursuant to Commission requests and amendments will be filed as SBSEF-FIN-QTR, SBSEF-FIN-QTR/A, SBSEF-FIN-REQ, and SBSEF-FIN-REQ/A submissions, respectively.
