Opes Acquisition Corp (Nasdaq: OPES), sponsored by Lionheart Capital under chairman Ophir Sternberg, completed its initial public offering in 2018 targeting the consumer and restaurant sector. The blank-check company closed its business combination with BurgerFi International, a fast-casual burger concept, in December 2020, with the combined entity subsequently trading on Nasdaq under the ticker BFI. BurgerFi expanded further through its 2021 acquisition of Anthony's Coal Fired Pizza before filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in September 2024. The December 2024 8-K filing reflects continued activity stemming from BurgerFi's ongoing restructuring proceedings.
