On August 7, Hennessy Capital Investment Corp. VII, Solis Merger Sub, and ONE Nuclear Energy signed Omnibus Amendment No. 3 to the business combination agreement. The 8-K went up August 10 as Item 1.01 with the amendment as Exhibit 2.1.
Ten days later they held a joint investor update call. That filing is Item 7.01 — Regulation FD — with a presentation and a transcript as exhibits 99.1 and 99.2. Furnished, not filed. We do not copy the slides.
What “7.01” means on this desk
Item 7.01 is how SPACs push a deck into EDGAR without treating it as a filed statement. It is a tell that IR is active. It is not a tell that the S-4 is effective, and it is not a proxy card.
HVII’s last S-4/As are checklist amendments: auditor consents, no new EX-2, no form of proxy. The Q&A still says the combination will be consummated “promptly following” a shareholders’ meeting dated [ ], 2026. Blanks in the meeting line mean they have not printed the vote.
Amendment No. 3 is progress on the contract. Progress on the contract without a proxy is still mid-pack, not the BBCQ/RFAI zone.
Summarized from Items 1.01 and 7.01. Not a reproduction of the investor presentation.
