Black Hawk Acquisition Corporation (Nasdaq: BKHA) is a SPAC (Special Purpose Acquisition Company) focusing on targeting merger opportunities within the healthcare sector. Currently, the company is negotiating a business combination with Vesicor Therapeutics, valuing the latter at a $70 million pre-money equity value.
