This is MASSIVE (per AFR above) and will be a huge vote of confidence in SPT on the back of MC/V/Stripe recent deals.

$100M will get instos attention. Expect a dramatic rerating of SPT esp, once details shared amongst prospective instos.

APT & SZL's recent CRs were done at ~2% and 5% below market price and if someone wants it big time, don't expect huge discount maybe 1.25/30. But won't remain there for long.

Just to get the juices going ...
