East Stone announced its $2.5 billion combination with ICONIQ on April 18, 2022. ESCC started off by bringing in an estimated $33.5 million into the deal through its current trust and originally supplemented this with a $200 million PIPE at $10.26 per share from an unnamed investor. The SPAC was able to secure a total of four PIPE rounds for the deal, but terminated two of those four subscriptions in September, bringing the total PIPE proceeds to $400 million.
