Metairie, LA and New York, NY – March 28, 2018 – Tiberius Acquisition Corporation (NASDAQ:TIBRU) (the “Company”) announced today the closing of the issuance of an additional 2,250,000 units pursuant to the underwriters’ over-allotment option in connection with the Company’s initial public offering.

The Company’s units began trading on the NASDAQ Capital Market under the ticker symbol “TIBRU” on March 16, 2018. Each unit consists of one share of the Company’s common stock and one warrant.

The Company is a blank check company formed for the purpose of entering into a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses. While the Company may pursue an initial business combination target in any business or industry, it intends to focus its search on the insurance sector.
