Blackboxstocks registered the shares for its takeover by Evtec Aluminium, an English company based in Coventry, at 301.8 Blackboxstocks shares per Evtec share -- leaving Evtec's owners with about 73.2% of the combined group and Blackboxstocks' own holders 26.8%, with the company to be renamed Evtec Holdings and trade as EVHI. There was no vote to win: chief executive Gust Kepler's 100-votes-per-share preferred stock gave him 99.2% of the votes and he had already signed the written consent, and Blackboxstocks holders kept an interest in the existing trading-software business only through a contingent value right.
As a condition of the pending Evtec acquisition, Blackboxstocks formed a new subsidiary, Blackbox.io Inc., and contributed its legacy fintech trading-analytics business to it, separating that business from the future Evtec-owned parent.

Blackboxstocks signed a definitive agreement to acquire Evtec Aluminium, a UK supplier of EV and performance-auto parts with about $52 million in projected revenue, in a reverse merger that would spin its legacy fintech business into a separate subsidiary and give existing Blackbox holders a contingent value right tied to that spinoff.
Under Nasdaq compliance pressure, Blackboxstocks extended stalled talks to acquire UK electric-vehicle parts maker Evtec, with Evtec agreeing to pay extension fees and forfeit preferred shares it had received under an earlier exchange arrangement while the two sides worked toward a definitive deal.
