SAN FRANCISCO, June 26, 2026--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Elroy Air, Inc., a leading U.S.-based technology developer of autonomous heavy-cargo drones for defense, rapid response and commercial logistics, and Columbus Circle Capital Corp II (Nasdaq: CMII), a special purpose acquisition company led by the management team of Inflection Point Asset Management (Inflection Point) and Cohen & Company, Inc. (NYSE American: COHN), which will be renamed Inflection Point Acquisition Corp VII (Nasdaq: IPXG), announced today that they have entered into a definitive business combination agreement (BCA) whereby Elroy Air will become a publicly traded company. The proposed transaction is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2026, subject to customary closing conditions, including regulatory and shareholder approval. The transaction values Elroy Air at $800 million pre-money, and has more than $165 million in committed PIPE capital, which is expected to fully fund commercial scale production of the Chaparral with U.S. manufacturing partner Kratos Defense & Security Solutions. $65 million of the more than $165 million PIPE is funding in connection with the execution of the BCA. Post-transaction, Elroy Air is expected to have an enterprise value of approximately $1.0 billion. Elroy Air is redefining autonomous heavy-cargo transport with Chaparral — an advanced vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) drone designed to carry 500+ pounds of cargo. The aircraft was engineered with a hybrid-electric powertrain to deliver the reliability of electric propulsion but with extended range of up to 450 miles and with no charging infrastructure required. Designed for maximum operational flexibility, Chaparral features multi-mission pods that enable rapid reconfiguration across diverse payload types and customer needs, unlocking a significant global total addressable market spanning defense, commercial logistics, and rapid response.
