The latest update is out from Quartzsea Acquisition Corporation ( (QSEA) ).

On March 17, 2026, Quartzsea Acquisition Corporation and Broadway Technology Inc., both Cayman Islands exempted companies, mutually agreed to terminate their Agreement and Plan of Merger originally signed on June 6, 2025, including all transactions contemplated under that deal. The termination, which took immediate effect, includes mutual releases of claims related to the planned merger and leaves the Merger Agreement with no further force or effect, with no termination fees payable by either party.

The parties cited the prolonged China Securities Regulatory Commission approval process and broader PRC regulatory uncertainty as the rationale for abandoning the transaction, underscoring the growing execution risk associated with cross-border deals that depend on Chinese regulatory clearance. For Quartzsea, the collapse of the Broadway combination sends it back to the market to find an alternative business combination partner, a development that may extend its deal timeline and inject fresh uncertainty for its investors.
