Item 8.01. Other Events.

On July 9, 2026, Freedom Metals Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) consummated its initial public offering (the “IPO”) of 27,500,000 units (the “Units”). Each Unit consists of one Class A ordinary share of the Company, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class A Ordinary Shares”), and one-third of one redeemable warrant of the Company (each whole warrant, a “Warrant”), with each whole Warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one Class A Ordinary Share for $11.50 per share. The Units were sold at a price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $275,000,000.

Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, the Company completed the private sale (the “Private Placement”) of an aggregate of 825,000 units (the “Private Placement Units”) to the Sponsor, Cohen & Company Capital Markets, a division of Cohen & Company Securities, LLC (“CCM”), and Clear Street LLC (“Clear Street”), with CCM and Clear Street acting as representatives of the underwriters, at a price of $10.00 per Private Placement Unit. Of those Private Placement Units, the Sponsor purchased 550,000 Private Placement Units, CCM purchased 261,250 Private Placement Units, and Clear Street purchased 13,750 Private Placement Units.

A total of $275,000,000, or $10.00 per Unit, comprised of the proceeds from the IPO (which amount includes the underwriters’ deferred discount of up to $12,650,000) and the Private Placement, was placed in a U.S.-based trust account maintained by Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, acting as trustee.

An audited balance sheet as of July 9, 2026, reflecting the receipt of the proceeds from the IPO and the Private Placement has been issued by the Company and is included as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
