Haymaker Acquisition V ^{Filed Terms, NYSE: HYACU}

We are a blank check company formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, amalgamation, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities, which we refer to throughout this prospectus as our initial business combination. We may pursue an initial business combination in any business or industry but expect to focus on a target in industries that complement our management team’s background. We intend to acquire and operate a business in the industrial, consumer and consumer-related products and services industries and believe our management team is well suited to identify opportunities that have the potential to generate attractive risk-adjusted returns for our shareholders. However, we are not limited to these industries and we may pursue a business combination opportunity in any business or industry we choose and we may pursue a company with operations or opportunities in any geographic location. Members of our management team were formerly members of the management teams of Haymaker I, Haymaker II, Haymaker III, and Haymaker 4, special purpose acquisition companies that, together with equity facilities raised by our management team (incremental to Haymaker I, Haymaker II’s, and Haymaker 4’s capital in trust) and new debt facilities, successfully completed initial business combinations with OneSpaWorld Holdings, GPM Investments, and ARKO Holdings, BioTE Holdings, and Concrete Partners Holdings (now Suncrete), respectively.
