Rice Acquisition Corporation 3

Rice Acquisition Corporation 3 is a special purpose acquisition company (SPAC) established in 2025 and headquartered in Carnegie, Pennsylvania. Its primary function is to identify and execute a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, recapitalization, reorganization, or similar business combination with one or more businesses, with a particular intent to target companies operating in the energy sector. As a blank check company, Rice Acquisition Corporation 3 does not have significant operations or revenues prior to completing a business combination; instead, it raises capital through an initial public offering with the goal of facilitating the growth and public debut of selected private firms within the energy industry. The company is co-sponsored by the Rice team and Mercuria Energy Group, combining industry expertise with financial backing, and features a notable $100 million forward purchase agreement funded by both sponsors. Rice Acquisition Corporation 3 plays a strategic role in the financial markets by acting as a bridge between capital markets and privately held energy businesses seeking efficient access to public funding and increased visibility.
