About Quinpario Acquisition Corp.

Quinpario Acquisition Corp. (NASDAQ: QPAC) is a blank-check company formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses. Sponsored by Quinpario Partners LLC., a privately owned investment and operating company founded by Mr. Jeffry N. Quinn, this special purpose acquisition company offers proven executive leadership focused on bringing long-term value to investors.

In addition to the upfront investment, QPAC offers key benefits for investors, including a significantly less dilutive warrants and promote structure compared to traditional SPACs, minimum anticipated return for investors that is higher than similar U.S. treasury yields, and the flexibility to acquire the most attractive target.
