STAMFORD, Conn., March 11, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE)—HCM Acquisition Corp (Nasdaq: HCMAU) ("HCM" or the "Company") announced that holders of the units sold in the Company's initial public offering of 28,750,000 units completed on January 25, 2022 (the "offering") may elect to separately trade the Class A ordinary shares and warrants included in the units commencing on March 14, 2022. Any units not separated will continue to trade on The Nasdaq Global Market under the symbol "HCMAU", and each of the Class A ordinary shares and warrants will separately trade on The Nasdaq Global Market under the symbols "HCMA" and "HCMAW," respectively. No fractional warrants will be issued upon separation of the units and only whole warrants will trade.
