SL Bio Completes Merger with Horizon Space Acquisition II

TAIPEI, Taiwan, June 12, 2026 - SL Bio Ltd. has successfully finalized its business combination with Horizon Space Acquisition II Corp. (Nasdaq: HSPT). The post-combination entity, now named SL Science Holding Limited, is set to begin trading on the Nasdaq Global Market under the ticker symbol SLBT beginning June 15, 2026.

Transaction Details

  • The transaction represents an implied equity valuation of approximately $5.568 billion for SL Bio.
  • The merger was supported by a concurrent closing of a $7.8 million PIPE financing, providing critical capital for operational growth.
  • SL Bio and Horizon Space are now wholly owned subsidiaries of the newly formed Cayman Islands holding company, SL Science.

Strategic Objectives

The newly capitalized entity intends to utilize the proceeds to accelerate the development of its proprietary Gamma delta T (GDT) cell-based therapy platforms.
