Re: VisionWave Holdings, Inc.

Amendment No. 2 to Draft Registration Statement on Form S-4 Submitted December 4, 2024

CIK No. 0002038439

Ms. Ishmukhamedova:

The following responses address the comments of the staff (the “Staff”) of the Securities and Exchange Commission as set forth in its letter dated December 4, 2024 (the “Comment Letter”) relating to the Draft Registration Statement on Form S-4 submitted December 4, 2024 (the “Registration Statement”) of VisionWave Holdings Inc. (the “VisionWave”).

For the Staff’s convenience, the Staffs’ comments have been stated below in their entirety, followed by the corresponding responses from the Company.

Amendment No. 2 to Draft Registration Statement on Form S-4 Preliminary Proxy Statement of VisionWave Holdings, Inc., page 4

1. We note your revised disclosure and response to prior comment 41. Please address the following regarding your disclosure on page 5 and revise as necessary:

● The total number of shares disclosed here under each scenario does not to agree to the total number of shares disclosed elsewhere throughout the filing (i.e., 12,498,748 shares under the no redemption scenario or 12,174,000 shares under the maximum redemption scenario).

● You disclose Target affiliates will hold 8,070,427 shares and Target non-affiliates will hold 2,020,573 shares, which does not agree to the 11.0 million shares that will be held by the Target.

● Explain how you determined the 484,000 shares to be held by the Sponsor or otherwise revise.

Response

We acknowledge the SEC’s comment and have reviewed the disclosure on page 4 of the S-4, which contains no table but includes narrative information about shares being registered. We could not identify the figures 12,249,748 or 12,174,000in the current S-4 filing.

To ensure consistency and clarity, we have made the following corrections and clarifications throughout the filing:

1. Correction of Target Affiliates’ Shares on Page 5:

o The number of shares attributed to Target affiliates on page 5 has been corrected to 8,979,427, which aligns with the total 11 million shares to be held by Target post-closing, as detailed in the ownership table and narrative text.

December 27, 2024

Page

2. Calculation of Sponsor Ownership (484,000 Shares):

o The Sponsor’s ownership is calculated as follows:

● 375,000 shares directly owned.

● 90,000 units, each consisting of:

● 1 share = 90,000 shares.

● 1/10 of a right = 9,000 shares at closing.

● Total = 375,000 + 90,000 + 9,000 = 484,000 shares.

o This calculation has been clarified in the relevant sections of the filing to ensure consistency and transparency.

These corrections ensure that all ownership disclosures are consistent across the filing and align with the accurate calculations of share ownership for both Target affiliates and the Sponsor.

2. We note your revised disclosures in response to prior comment 4 where you define Former Sponsor. We further note your reference to the issuance of 225,000 private placement units to your Sponsors on page 6. To the extent your reference to “Sponsor” here and elsewhere throughout the filing is referring to your Former Sponsors, please revise to ensure that your references identify the appropriate party.

Response

We acknowledge the SEC’s comment and confirm that the 225,000 units referenced are attributed to the Former Sponsor. These represent private placement units, not shares, and this distinction has been corrected on page 6 and throughout the document.

To ensure clarity and transparency, we have carefully reviewed all references to these units and updated the filing to correctly reflect their attribution under the Former Sponsor. This correction ensures consistency across the ownership tables and narrative sections in the S-4 filing.

3. We note your revised disclosure in response to prior comment 1. You state on page 6 that the total amount payable for transaction expenses and any outstanding loans or other obligations to the Sponsor is approximately $1.4 million. However, on page 44 you state that it is $14 million. Furthermore, on page 60, you state that the overall at risk amount is $6.3 million, including $840,000 in unreimbursed out-of-pocket expenses. Please correct the discrepancy.

Response

We acknowledge the SEC’s comment and confirm that there was a typographical error on page 44, where the amount should correctly state 1.4 million rather than 14 million, as accurately stated on page 6. This error has been corrected.

Additionally, the language on page 60, under the Sponsor Risk section, has been reviewed for clarity. We propose the following rephrased disclosure to ensure consistency and transparency:

December 27, 2024

Page

Revised Disclosure on Page 60:

“The Sponsor has provided $1.4 million in working capital to the Company to support its operations. The Sponsor currently holds 475,000 shares, which may be subject to loss if the Business Combination does not close. The Sponsor is not entitled to the 9,000 shares related to rights prior to the closing.”

These corrections ensure alignment across the document and provide clear, concise information regarding the Sponsor’s financial contributions and risk exposure.

Certain Defined Terms, page 14

4. We note your revised disclosures and response to prior comment 5. Please revise here to define VisionWave Technologies, Inc., as “Target” like how you have defined Bannix Acquisition Corporation as “Bannix” or “the Company” and VisionWave Holdings, Inc. as “VisionWave.”

Response

We acknowledge the SEC’s comment and confirm that the definition of “Target” was previously missing. To address this, we have included the definition on page 17 in alphabetical order, as follows:

New Definition Added to Page 17:

● “Target” means VisionWave Technologies, Inc.

This update ensures the term “Target” is clearly defined and aligns with its usage throughout the filing.

5. We note your disclosure on page 6 regarding “Sponsor Related Parties,” which you define as “Sponsor, its affiliates, representatives and the SPAC officers and directors.” We also note you refer to Sponsor Related Parties in your Liquidity disclosures on page 154. Please revise to define this term here.

Response

We acknowledge the SEC’s comment and confirm that we have added a definition for ”Sponsor Related Parties” on page 154 to clarify its usage in the filing. The revised text now reads as follows:

Revised Text on Page 154:

“In addition, in order to fund transaction costs in connection with a possible Business Combination, the Company’s Sponsor, an affiliate of the Sponsor, and/or certain of the Company’s officers and directors (‘Sponsor Related Parties’) may, but are not obligated to, provide the Company Working Capital Loans.”

This definition ensures transparency and consistency in referencing Sponsor Related Parties throughout the filing.

6. Please revise to move the first paragraph here, which addresses the ownership tables now disclosed on pages 25 and 26, so that it immediately precedes the tabular disclosures to which it relates. Additionally, we note your last paragraph on page 27 refers to “the following table” that shows potential impact of redemptions on per share values; however, there is no table following that paragraph. Please revise.

Response

We acknowledge the SEC’s comment and have revised the filing as follows:

2. Addressing Missing Table Reference:

o On page 27, the paragraph referring to “the following table” has been removed.

These revisions improve the clarity and consistency of the filing in compliance with the SEC’s request.

Similarly, the total shares in the table and in footnote (2) include adjustments for the Target Shareholders. Please revise to remove the effects of the Business Combination from these calculations.

Response

This comment has been resolved by removing the net tangible book value of the Target from the numerator adjustments and removing the Target shareholders from the denominator adjustments in the table on page 23.

8. We note the introductory language at the top of page 24 to the tabular disclosure of Bannix’s historical net tangible book value as of September 30, 2024, indicates the amounts in the table reflect the business combination with Target. Please revise to exclude such reference and provide revised dilution information that reflect the dilution to SPAC shareholders, which should be calculated as the difference between the SPAC’s IPO price per share and the SPAC’s net tangible book value per share, as adjusted, excluding the impact of the Business Combination transaction.

Response

This comment has been resolved by excluding the impact of the Business Combination transaction from the table on page 24.

9. Your calculation of net tangible book value per share as of September 30, 2024 at the top of page 24 appears to include shares related to the Public and Private Rights. Please explain the inclusion of such shares or revise as necessary.

Response

This comment has been resolved by revising the total Bannix shares outstanding in the Denominator adjustments to agree to the total Bannix shares in the Bannix historical net tangible book value table at the top of page 23.

11. We note the inclusion of shares underlying Bannix Public and Private Warrants in your adjusted net tangible book value calculations. Please tell us how you determined that the exercise of warrants is probable such that they should be included in your calculation of as adjusted net tangible book value. Alternatively, revise to remove this adjustment and instead include a footnote that separately addresses any potential sources of dilution that are not considered probable at or prior to the Business Combination.

Response

● Define your reference to Representative shares and include a definition in your glossary of terms on page 14.

● Define your reference to Target non-affiliated public shareholders and clarify the holders of such shares.

                                            of Sponsor Ownership (484,000 Shares):

 o The
                                            Sponsor’s ownership is calculated as follows:

 ● 375,000
                                            shares directly owned.

 ● 90,000

 ● 1
                                            share = 90,000 shares.
