Concrete Partners Holding LLC, known as Suncrete, has announced plans to go public through a blockbuster Concrete $972.6M SPAC Merger with Haymaker Acquisition Corp. 4, a special purpose acquisition company. The transaction—crafted by four heavyweight law firms—will value the combined entity at an eye-catching $972.6 million and set the stage for trading on the New York Stock Exchange once finalized, according to a Thursday statement.

Suncrete, backed by Texas-based SunTx Capital Partners, is a fast-growing ready-mix concrete logistics and distribution platform spanning Oklahoma and Arkansas. The company aims to expand across the Sunbelt region, leveraging a network of modern concrete plants and tech-enabled mixer trucks.

Legal Powerhouses Cement the Deal

The merger was the product of legal precision: Haynes Boone represented Suncrete and its private equity owner, while DLA Piper and Ellenoff Grossman & Schole LLP advised Haymaker. Meanwhile, White & Case LLP guided the financial advisers and placement agents.

Haynes Boone’s deal team included partners Kellie Bobo (M&A), Matt Fry and Greg Samuel (capital markets), Paul Amiel (finance), and Lauren White. DLA Piper’s counsel featured Sid Burke and Stephen Alicanti, while Ellenoff Grossman’s team was led by Douglas Ellenoff and Stuart Neuhauser. White & Case’s capital markets partners Joel Rubinstein and Jonathan Rochwarger completed the advisory roster.

Building an Empire of Concrete and Opportunity

SunTx founding partner Ned Fleming III described the ready-mix concrete sector in the Sunbelt as “highly fragmented,” dominated by smaller family-run businesses often facing generational change. “We believe this will benefit Suncrete as we execute our acquisition strategy and expand our footprint,” he said.

Suncrete CEO Randall Edgar emphasized that ready-mix concrete is “a logistics business” requiring precise coordination—mixing raw materials en route and delivering them “on time and on spec.” Edgar said the company’s entry into public markets will fuel “profitable growth to enhance shareholder value.”

SPAC Path to Public Markets

Haymaker Acquisition Corp. 4, a blank-check company, was formed to identify high-potential private firms ready to go public. Vice President Andrew Heyer said, “We see a tremendous market opportunity in the ready-mix concrete industry and look forward to working with Suncrete and SunTx to achieve our shared goals.”

The merger is expected to close in the first quarter of 2026, laying the foundation for one of the year’s most anticipated SPAC listings. If successful, Suncrete’s NYSE debut could mark a defining moment for both the construction materials industry and private equity-backed infrastructure ventures.
