dMY Technology Group II is a blank check company whose business
purpose is to effect 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 industry or
geographic region, the Company intends to focus its search for an
initial business combination on companies within the broader
consumer technology ecosystem that are either consumer-facing or
support the infrastructure of consumer applications (“apps”) with
enterprise valuations in an approximate valuation range of $1.0
billion to $3.0 billion, though the Company’s search may span
consumer software segments worldwide and may pursue a target
outside its expected range. The Company intends to specifically
focus on companies that have created, or enabled the creation of,
compelling mobile app experiences with significant growth in
segments such as gaming, entertainment, education, work
productivity, e-commerce, dating, financial technology, and health
and wellness. Companies developing disruptive and key enablement
technologies for consumer-facing apps in these segments, such as
artificial intelligence (“AI”), machine learning (“ML”), cloud
infrastructures and quantum computing are also within the scope of
this search.
