American Acquisition Opportunity Files Form S-4 Registration Statement in Connection with its Proposed Business Combination with Royalty Management Corporation

The registration statement on Form S-4 did not include a concurrent financing and was not required by the merger target, Royalty Management Corporation, as part of the transaction

Royalty Management Corporation shareholders did not require any proceeds to be paid at closing allowing all remaining trust capital to be used to fuel growth

FISHERS, INDIANA / ACCESSWIRE / December 16, 2022 / American Acquisition Opportunity Inc. (NASDAQ:AMAO) (the "Company") announced today the filing of its registration statement on Form S-4 (the "Registration Statement"), with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) in connection with its proposed business combination with Royalty Management Corporation (RMC), a sustainably-driven, cash flow-oriented, royalty investment and development company. The transaction is intended to be a streamlined merger structure whereby RMC does not require any capital to remain in trust or a concurrent financing.

The Registration Statement contains a preliminary proxy statement and prospectus, in connection with its previously announced proposed business combination with RMC. While the Registration Statement has not yet become effective and the information contained therein is subject to change, it provides important information about RMC and the proposed business combination with American Acquisition Opportunity Inc.

Mark Jensen, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of American Acquisition Opportunity Inc, commented, "We believe we have put American Acquisition in its best position to navigate a very challenged SPAC market in a way that protects our sponsor investors, shareholders and provides an attractive public presence for Royalty Management Corporation. During the course of the SPAC process, we reviewed over 50 targets and became close to closing on four targets, but ultimately each one required a complicated capital structure, and in the current market for SPACs would have been challenging to get completed. Royalty Management Corporation is a growth company focusing on existing and new age royalty and equity structures that brings its own balance sheet and asset base to the table and has a desire to be public to grow in an accretive method. Today we are thankful to get the merger registration statement filed and chart a path of growth and value creation for all those involved in the combined entity."

The business combination values RMC at an implied $111 million pro forma enterprise value, at a price of $10.00 per share, assuming no redemptions by AMAO shareholders. The transaction will result in gross proceeds of approximately $7.5 million to RMC (assuming no redemptions by AMAO stockholders and prior to the payment of transaction expenses).

American Acquisition Opportunity's common stock is currently traded on the NASDAQ under the symbol "AMAO". In connection with the closing of the transaction, American Acquisition Opportunity intends to change its name to Royalty Management Corporation and to remain listed on the NASDAQ exchange under the new symbol "RMCO". The closing of the transaction is subject to customary closing conditions including SEC and Nasdaq review and the approval of shareholders from both entities.
