Item 8.01. Other Events.
On October 15, 2024, Cartesian
Growth Corporation II (the “Company”) entered into a non-binding letter of intent with a potential target (the “Potential
Target”) with respect to its initial business combination. The Potential Target in the risk-reduction products sector and would,
on a pro forma basis at the closing of such potential business combination, be a market-leading company with operations in multiple countries
and is expected to own businesses generating 2025 pro forma adjusted EBITDA of more than $100 million.
Adjusted EBITDA is neither
an IFRS nor a GAAP measure. The Company is unable to provide a reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA as it is not reconcilable to its most
directly comparable IFRS or GAAP measure without unreasonable efforts, because the amounts excluded from the relevant IFRS or GAAP measures
used to determine adjusted EBITDA cannot be predicted with reasonable certainty.
While the Company is hopeful
that it can consummate an initial business combination with the Potential Target, there is no guarantee that the Company will be able
to enter into a definitive business combination agreement with the Potential Target or, if such agreement is entered into, that it will
be able to consummate a business combination with the Potential Target by the Company’s termination date (which may be extended).
Any such transaction would be subject to board and stakeholder approval of both the Company and the Potential Target, regulatory approvals
and other customary closing conditions.
Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This Current Report on Form
8-K contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended, and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, as amended. Forward-looking statements may relate to the Company’s
initial business combination and any other statements relating to future results, strategy and plans of the Company (including statements
which may be identified by the use of the words “plans”, “expects” or “does not expect”, “estimated”,
“is expected”, “budget”, “scheduled”, “estimates”, “forecasts”, “intends”,
“anticipates” or “does not anticipate”, “targets”, “projects”, “contemplates”,
“predicts”, “potential”, “continue”, or “believes”, or variations of such words and phrases
or state that certain actions, events or results “may”, “could”, “would”, “should”, “might”,
“will” or “will be taken”, “occur” or “be achieved”).
Forward-looking statements
are based on the opinions and estimates of management of the Company as of the date such statements are made, and they are subject to
known and unknown risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other factors that may cause the actual results, level of activity, performance
or achievements to be materially different from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties
include, but are not limited to the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to a delay in or the failure
to enter into a definitive agreement relating to, or the Company’s ability to close an initial business combination, including with
the Potential Target, and the financial performance of the Potential Target.
Additional information on
these and other factors that may cause actual results and the Company’s performance to differ materially is included in the Company’s
periodic reports filed with the SEC, including, but not limited to, the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2023, including those factors described under the heading “Risk Factors” therein, and the Company’s
subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q. Copies of the Company’s filings with the SEC are available publicly on the SEC’s
website at www.sec.gov or may be obtained by contacting the Company. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or
should any of our assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary in material respects from those projected in these forward-looking
statements. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance upon any forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made.
These forward-looking statements are made only as of the date hereof, and the Company undertakes no obligations to update or revise the
forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.
