About Teamshares Inc.
About Teamshares Inc.
Teamshares' subsidiaries generated consolidated revenue exceeding $400 million across more than 40 industries and 30 states, before Live Oak Acquisition Corp. V completed its business combination with the company on June 18, 2026 to create the publicly traded Teamshares Inc. (Nasdaq: TMS). Founded in 2019, Teamshares operates as a holding company and financial-technology platform that programmatically acquires profitable small businesses from retiring owners.
Teamshares earns revenue through subsidiaries it acquires from retiring owners of businesses with $0.5 million to $5 million of EBITDA, then integrates each onto a shared operating platform while granting employees an ownership stake in company stock, a financial-technology overlay on what is otherwise a diversified operating-company holding structure. The business combination valued Teamshares at $525 million in newly issued common stock at $10.00 per share, funded in part by the $231,150,000 held in Live Oak's IPO trust account plus additional PIPE and Interim Period Financing negotiated under the merger agreement. Sellers, led by Chief Financial Officer Brian Gaebe as Seller Representative, also stand to receive up to 6,000,000 earnout shares contingent on the stock closing above $12.00, $15.00, and $20.00 price targets over a five-year earnout period.

Prior to Closing, the SPAC's own 10-K flagged that it 'may only be able to complete one Business Combination with the proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and the Private Placement,' making the post-combination entity solely dependent on Teamshares as its single business rather than a diversified portfolio of targets. That structural dependency became binding once the merger closed on June 18, 2026: Teamshares Inc.'s public float, board composition, and Nasdaq listing all now rest on the operating performance of the roll-up business itself rather than a broader combination search, with no alternate target evaluated once the Teamshares Merger Agreement was signed on November 14, 2025.
From Teamshares Inc.'s most recent 10-K filing, extracted July 6, 2026.
