Subjectto Completion, dated ,2026
Shares
This is the initial public offering of shares of Class A common stock of Accelevation Holdings Corp., par value $0.0001 per share (“Class A common stock”). Accelevation
Holdings Corp. is offering shares of Class A common stock and the selling stockholders named in this prospectus (the “selling stockholders”) are offering
shares of Class A common stock to be sold in the offering. We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of shares of Class A common stock by the selling
stockholders in this offering. See “Use of Proceeds.” Prior to this offering, there has been no public market for the Class A common stock of Accelevation Holdings Corp. It is
currently estimated that the initial public offering price per share will be between $ and $ . We intend to apply to list our Class A common stock on The
Nasdaq Global Select Market, or Nasdaq, under the symbol “ACCV.” However, no assurance can be given that our listing application will be approved. If our listing application is
not approved by Nasdaq, we will not be able to consummate this offering.
This offering is being conducted through what is commonly referred to as an “Up-C” structure, which is often used by partnerships and limited liability companies undertaking an
initial public offering. The Up-C structure allows certain existing owners of Accelevation LLC (“Accelevation LLC”) to continue to own interests in a pass-through structure and
provides potential future tax benefits for both the public company and such existing owners when they ultimately exchange their pass-through interests, which is expected to result
in tax basis adjustments in the assets of Accelevation LLC and produce favorable tax attributes for us. In connection with this offering, we will enter into a Tax Receivable
Agreement (as defined herein), which will require Accelevation Holdings Corp. to make cash payments to the TRA Rights Holders (as defined herein) in respect of certain tax
benefits to which Accelevation Holdings Corp. may become entitled, and confers significant economic benefits to the TRA Rights Holders. We expect that the payments
Accelevation Holdings Corp. will be required to make under the Tax Receivable Agreement will be substantial and could materially affect our liquidity. See “Organizational
Structure,” “Risk Factors—Risks Related to Our Organizational Structure” and “Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions—Tax Receivable Agreement.”
Following the completion of this offering, Accelevation Holdings Corp. will have two authorized classes of common stock: Class A common stock and Class B common stock
(together, the “common stock”). Holders of Class A common stock and Class B common stock will be entitled to one vote per share. All holders of Class A common stock and
Class B common stock will vote together as a single class except as otherwise required by applicable law. Holders of Class B common stock will not have any right to receive
dividends or distributions upon the liquidation or winding up of Accelevation Holdings Corp.
In connection with this offering, we will form Accelevation Holdings LLC (“Holdings LLC”), which will be the direct parent entity of Accelevation LLC. Accelevation Holdings
Corp. will use the net proceeds from this offering to acquire Series A units of Holdings LLC (“Series A Units” and, together with Series B units of Holdings LLC
(“Series B Units”), the “LLC Units”) (holders of such LLC Units, the “LLC Unitholders”) at a purchase price per Series A Unit equal to the initial public offering price of the
shares of Class A common stock less the underwriting discounts and commissions referred to below. Holdings LLC will use the net proceeds it receives from Accelevation
Holdings Corp. in connection with this offering as described in “Use of Proceeds.” Upon completion of this offering, Accelevation Holdings Corp. will have LLC Units
representing a % economic interest in Holdings LLC and, although Accelevation Holdings Corp. will initially have a minority economic interest in Holdings LLC, it
will be the sole managing member of Holdings LLC and will operate and control its business. The LLC Unitholders will hold the remaining LLC Units representing
a % economic interest in Holdings LLC. Each LLC Unit, together with one share of our Class B common stock, is, from time to time, exchangeable for one share of
our Class A common stock or, at our election, for cash from a substantially concurrent public offering or private sale (based on the price of our Class A common stock in such
public offering or private sale). Accelevation Holdings Corp. will be a holding company, and upon consummation of this offering and the application of the net proceeds
therefrom, its sole assets will be LLC Units and certain interests in Instor Blocker, Inc. (“Instor”). Immediately following this offering, the holders of Class A common stock will
collectively own % of the economic interests in Accelevation Holdings Corp. and have % of the voting power of Accelevation Holdings Corp. The LLC
Unitholders, through ownership of our Class B common stock, will have the remaining % of the voting power of Accelevation Holdings Corp.
Accelevation Holdings Corp. is an “emerging growth company” as defined under the federal securities laws, and as such, we have elected to comply with certain reduced reporting
requirements for this prospectus and may elect to do so in future filings. See “Prospectus Summary—Implications of Being an Emerging Growth Company.”
Immediately after this offering, assuming an offering size as set forth above, our principal stockholder, Olympus Partners, LP (our “Principal Stockholder”), will control
approximately % of the combined voting power of our outstanding shares of Class A common stock and Class B common stock (or % if the underwriters
exercise their option to purchase additional shares in full). As a result, we expect to be a “controlled company” within the meaning of the corporate governance standards
of Nasdaq. See “Management—Corporate Governance—Controlled Company Status.”
Investing in our Class A common stock involves risks. See “Risk Factors” beginning on page 41 to read about factors you should consider before buying shares of our Class A
Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of these securities or determined if this prospectus is
truthful or complete. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.
