Black Hawk Acquisition Corporation Class A ( (BKHA) ) has provided an announcement.

On January 27, 2026, Black Hawk Acquisition Corporation reported that Michael Bowen, the Chief Financial Officer of its proposed merger target Vesicor Therapeutics, Inc., had died, prompting Vesicor’s board to appoint veteran healthcare executive Mitchell Creem as its new CFO effective immediately, without an employment agreement. Separately, on January 26, 2026, Vesicor added experienced media and entertainment executive and investor Frederick Woodruff Field as an independent director, with both appointments expected to stabilize Vesicor’s leadership and governance structure as it pursues its planned business combination with Black Hawk, potentially reassuring investors and other stakeholders about continuity in financial oversight and board independence following the unexpected loss of its prior finance chief.
