NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 2025
Note 1—Description of Organization and Business Operations
dMY Squared Technology Group, Inc. (the “Company”) is a blank check company incorporated in Massachusetts. The Company was formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses (the “Business Combination”). The Company is an emerging growth company and, as such, the Company is subject to all of the risks associated with emerging growth companies.
As of March 31, 2025, the Company had not commenced any operations. All activity for the period from February 15, 2022 (inception) through March 31, 2025 relates to the Company’s formation and the initial public offering (the “Initial Public Offering”) as described below, and since the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the search for a prospective initial Business Combination. The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of its initial Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company generates non-operating income in the form of interest income from the proceeds derived from the Initial Public Offering.
The Company’s sponsor is dMY Squared Sponsor,
LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Sponsor”). The registration statement for the Company’s Initial Public
Offering was declared effective on September 29, 2022. On October 4, 2022, the Company consummated its Initial Public Offering
of
Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public
Offering, the Company consummated the private placement (“Private Placement”) of
In addition, concurrently with the closing of the
Initial Public Offering, the Sponsor extended an overfunding loan to the Company in an amount of $

The Company’s management has broad discretion
with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and the sale of Private Placement Warrants,
although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be applied generally toward consummating a Business Combination. There
is no assurance that the Company will be able to complete a Business Combination successfully. The Company must complete one or more initial
Business Combinations having an aggregate fair market value of at least
The Company provides Public Shareholders with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares upon the completion of a Business Combination either (i) in connection with a shareholders’ meeting called to approve the Business Combination or (ii) by means of a tender offer. The decision as to whether the Company will seek shareholder approval of a Business Combination or conduct a tender offer will be made by the Company, solely in its discretion. The Public Shareholders will be entitled to redeem their Public Shares for a pro rata portion of the amount then held in the Trust Account (initially at $
per Public Share).
The per-share amount to be distributed to Public Shareholders who redeem their Public Shares will not be reduced by the deferred underwriting commissions the Company will pay to the underwriter (as discussed in Note 6).
These Public Shares are recorded at redemption value
and classified as temporary equity upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards
Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity”
(“ASC 480”). The Company will proceed with a Business Combination if a majority of the shares voted are voted in favor of
the Business Combination. The Company’s Charter initially required the Company to not redeem the Public Shares in an amount that
would cause its net tangible assets to be less than $

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 2025
In January 2024, the shareholders approved the proposal to amend the Charter and eliminate such Redemption Limitation (as defined below). If a shareholder vote is not required by law and the Company does not decide to hold a shareholder vote for business or other legal reasons, the Company will, pursuant to its Charter, conduct the redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and file tender offer documents with the SEC prior to completing a Business Combination. If, however, shareholder approval of the transaction is required by law, or the Company decides to obtain shareholder approval for business or legal reasons, the Company will offer to redeem shares in conjunction with a proxy solicitation pursuant to the proxy rules and not pursuant to the tender offer rules. Additionally, each Public Shareholder may elect to redeem their Public Shares irrespective of whether they vote for or against the proposed transaction. If the Company seeks shareholder approval in connection with a Business Combination, the initial shareholders agreed to vote their Founder Shares (as defined in Note 4) and any Public Shares purchased during or after the Initial Public Offering in favor of a Business Combination. In addition, the initial shareholders agreed to waive their redemption rights with respect to their Founder Shares and Public Shares in connection with the completion of a Business Combination.
The Company’s Charter provides that a Public Shareholder, together with any affiliate of such shareholder or any other person with whom such shareholder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined under Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), will be restricted from redeeming its shares with respect to more than an aggregate of
% or more of the Public Shares, without the prior consent of the Company.
The Sponsor and the Company’s officers agreed not to propose an amendment to the Charter to modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to redeem
% of the Public Shares if the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period (as defined below), or with respect to any other material provisions relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-initial Business Combination activity, unless the Company provides the Public Shareholders with the opportunity to redeem their Public Shares in conjunction with any such amendment.
The Company’s Charter initially provided
The Company’s board determined that, in order
for the Company to have additional time to complete a Business Combination in a more cost effective manner, it would be in the best interests
of the Company and its shareholders to extend the Prior Outside Date to allow for a period of additional time to consummate the Business
Combination. On January 2, 2024, the Company held a special meeting of its shareholders (the “Special Meeting”). At the
Special Meeting, the Company’s shareholders approved an amendment of the Charter to extend (the “Extension”) the date
by which the Company has to consummate a Business Combination from January 4, 2024 to January 29, 2024 (the “Extended
Date”) and each subsequent Extension Period being one calendar month each time, until up to December 29, 2025 (each, an “Additional
Extended Date”, each monthly extension, an “Extension Period”, and such period in its entirety, from the Initial Public
Offering until the final Additional Extended Date, the “Combination Period”), only if the Sponsor or its designee would deposit
(the “Contribution”) into the Trust Account as a loan, (i) on or before January 4, 2024, with respect to the initial
extension to the Extended Date, an amount of $

At the Special Meeting, the Company’s shareholders
also approved proposals to (1) amend the Charter to provide for the right of a holder of Class B Shares (as defined below) to convert
their Class B Shares into Class A Shares on a one-for-one basis at any time and from time to time at the election of the holder; (2) amend
the Charter to eliminate from the Charter (i) the limitation that the Company may not redeem Public Shares in an amount that would cause
its net tangible assets to be less than $
In connection with the Contribution and advances the
Sponsor or its affiliates may make in the future to the Company for working capital expenses, on January 2, 2024, the Company issued
a convertible promissory note to Harry L. You, Chairman and Chief Financial Officer and an affiliate of the Sponsor (the “Payee”),
with a principal amount up to $
If the Company is unable to complete the Business
Combination before the end of the Combination Period, the Company will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up,
(ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter subject to lawfully available funds therefor, redeem
one hundred percent (
If the initial shareholders acquire Public Shares, they will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to such Public Shares if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period. The underwriter agreed to waive its rights to the deferred underwriting commission (see Note 5) held in the Trust Account in the event the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period and, in such event, such amounts will be included with the other funds held in the Trust Account that will be available to fund the redemption of the Public Shares. In the event of such distribution, it is possible that the per share value of the residual assets remaining available for distribution (including Trust Account assets) will be only $
. In order to protect the amounts held in the Trust Account, the Sponsor has agreed to be liable to the Company if and to the extent any claims by a third party (except for the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm) for services rendered or products sold to the Company, or a prospective target business with

The Company will seek to reduce the possibility that the Sponsor will have to indemnify the Trust Account due to claims of creditors by endeavoring to have all vendors, service providers (except the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm), prospective target businesses or other entities with which the Company does business, execute agreements with the Company waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to monies held in the Trust Account.

In connection with the management’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 205-40, “Presentation of Financial Statements—Going Concern,” the Company’s management has determined that the liquidity condition, mandatory liquidation, should a Business Combination not occur, and potential subsequent dissolution raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern through the earlier of the liquidation date or the completion of the initial Business Combination. There is no assurance that the Company’s plans to consummate the initial Business Combination will be successful or successful within the Combination Period. The unaudited condensed financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Risks and Uncertainties
Various macroeconomic, geopolitical and regulatory uncertainties and challenges pose risks to economic conditions in the U.S. and globally, including, among others, any resurgence in inflation; changes to trade, immigration, energy and other policies resulting from the new U.S. administration; changes in interest rate policies; the Russia-Ukraine war; conflicts in the Middle East; and economic conditions and tensions involving China.
These and other risks could negatively impact economic growth rates and unemployment levels in the U.S. and other countries and result in volatility and disruptions in financial markets. Such risks could also adversely affect the Company’s search for an initial Business Combination and any target business with which the Company may ultimately consummate an initial Business Combination.
Note 2—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information, Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Certain disclosures normally included in financial statements have been condensed or omitted from these unaudited condensed financial statements as they are not required for interim financial statements under GAAP and the rules of the SEC. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes necessary for a comprehensive presentation of financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal accruals) considered for a fair presentation of the financial position, operating results and cash flows for the periods presented have been included. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2025 or any future period.
The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report Form 10-K as of December 31, 2024, as filed with the SEC on April 3, 2025, which contains the Company’s audited financial statements and notes thereto.

Emerging Growth Company
The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”), and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the independent registered public accounting firm attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.
Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that an emerging growth company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such an election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period, which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of the Company’s financial statements with another public company that is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company that has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all short-term investments with
an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. The Company had
Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the
Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash accounts in a financial institution, which, regularly exceed the Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation coverage limit of $
Cash and Investments Held in Trust Account
The Company’s portfolio of investments was comprised of U.S. government securities, within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act, with a maturity of 185 days or less, or investments in money market funds that invest in U.S. government securities and generally have a readily determinable fair value, or a combination thereof. When the Company’s investments held in the Trust Account are comprised of U.S. government securities, the investments are classified as trading securities. When the Company’s investments held in the Trust Account are comprised of money market funds, the investments are recognized at fair value. Trading securities and investments in money market funds are presented on the condensed balance sheets at fair value at the end of each reporting period. Gains and losses resulting from the change in fair value of these securities are included in interest income from investments held in Trust Account in the accompanying unaudited condensed statements of operations. The estimated fair values of investments held in the Trust Account are determined using available market information. On September 25, 2024, the Company instructed Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, the trustee with respect to the Trust Account, to transfer its Trust Account out of investment in securities into an interest-bearing bank deposit account in order to mitigate the risk of being deemed an unregistered investment company, and the account was transferred in March 2025. As of March 31, 2025, the trust balance was held in cash. As of December 31, 2024 the trust balance was held in US Treasury Bills.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities other than for the Overfunding Loan to the Sponsor, which qualifies as financial instruments under FASB ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurement,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the condensed balance sheets, either because of the short-term nature of the instruments or because the instrument is recognized at fair value.
Fair Value Measurements
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received for sale of an asset or paid for transfer of a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. GAAP establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). These tiers include:
● | Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical instruments in active markets; |
● | Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable such as quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and |
● | Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions, such as valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable. |
In some circumstances, the inputs used to measure fair value might be categorized within different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In those instances, the fair value measurement is categorized in its entirety in the fair value hierarchy based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
Warrant Liabilities
The warrants issued in connection with the Initial Public Offering (the “Public Warrants”) and the Private Placement Warrants were recognized as derivative liabilities in accordance with ASC 815. Accordingly, the Company recognized the warrant instruments as liabilities at fair value and will adjust the instruments to fair value at each reporting period. The liabilities are subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet date until exercised, and any change in fair value will be recognized in the unaudited condensed statements of operations. The fair value of the Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants were initially measured at fair value using the Black-Scholes model and the Monte Carlo simulation model, respectively. Beginning in December 2022, the fair value of Public Warrants has been measured based on the listed market price of such Public Warrants. The estimated fair value of the Private Placement Warrants was subsequently determined using the Monte Carlo simulation method with Level 3 inputs. The determination of the fair value of the derivative warrant liabilities may be subject to change as more current information becomes available and accordingly the actual results could differ significantly (see Note 8).
Convertible Note Payable – Related Parties
The option to convert the Convertible Note issued to the Payee on January 2, 2024 (see Note 4) into warrants qualifies as an embedded derivative under ASC 815 and is required to be recognized at fair value, with subsequent changes in fair value recognized in the Company’s unaudited condensed statements of operations each reporting period until the Convertible Note is repaid or converted. As of the funding date and March 31, 2025, the fair value of the embedded conversion option had a de minimis value.

Use of Estimates
The preparation of the unaudited condensed financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the Company’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited condensed financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.
Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the unaudited condensed financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. One of the more significant accounting estimates included in these unaudited condensed financial statements is the determination of the fair value of the derivative warrant liabilities. Such estimates may be subject to change as more current information becomes available and accordingly the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.
Offering Costs Associated with the Initial Public Offering
Offering costs consisted of legal, accounting, underwriting fees and other costs incurred that were directly related to the Initial Public Offering. Upon completion of the Initial Public Offering, offering costs were allocated to the separable financial instruments issued in the Initial Public Offering based on a relative fair value basis, compared to total proceeds received. Offering costs allocated to the derivative warrant liabilities were charged to operations. Offering costs associated with the Class A Shares were charged against the carrying value of Class A Shares upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering.
As discussed in Note 1, all of the Public Shares sold as parts of the units in the Initial Public Offering contain a redemption feature. In accordance with ASC 480, redemption provisions not solely within the control of the Company require the securities to be classified outside of permanent equity. Ordinary liquidation events, which involve the redemption and liquidation of all of the entity’s equity instruments, are excluded from the provisions of ASC 480. Therefore, the carrying value of all Public Shares has been classified outside of permanent equity. Immediately upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company recognized the accretion from initial book value to redemption amount value. The change in the carrying value of redeemable Public Shares resulted in charges against additional paid-in capital (to the extent available) and accumulated deficit.
For the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, the amounts of Public Shares reflected in the unaudited condensed financial statements are reconciled in the following table:

The Company complies with accounting and disclosure
requirements of FASB ASC Topic 260, “Earnings Per Share.” The Company has two classes of shares, which are referred to as
Class A Shares and Class B Shares (or Public Shares and Founder Shares (as defined in Note 4)). Income and losses are shared pro rata

Income Taxes
The Company follows the asset and liability method
of accounting for income taxes under FASB ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes” (“ASC 740”). Deferred tax assets and liabilities
are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts
of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax
rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The
effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that included the enactment
date. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. As of
March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company had gross deferred tax assets of approximately $
ASC 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement
attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For
those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. There

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09 (Topic 740), Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. The ASU requires disaggregated information about a reporting entity’s effective tax rate reconciliation as well as an expansion of other income tax disclosures. The ASU is effective on a prospective basis for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this ASU will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
Issued in November 2024, ASU 2024-03, Disaggregation of income Statement Expenses (Subtopic 220-40), requires the disaggregated disclosure of specific expense categories, including purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, and amortization, within relevant income statement captions. This ASU also requires disclosure of the total amount of selling expenses along with the definition of selling expenses. The ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. Adoption of this ASU can either be applied prospectively to consolidated financial statements issued for reporting periods after the effective date of this ASU or retrospectively to any or all prior periods presented in the consolidated financial statements. While early adoption is permitted, the Company does not plan to adopt this standard early. This ASU will likely result in additional disclosures being included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements once adopted. The Company is currently evaluating the provisions of this ASU.

The fair value of the Public Warrants and the Private Placement Warrants was initially measured using Black-Scholes option pricing model and Monte Carlo simulation method, respectively. Beginning in December 2022, the fair value of Public Warrants has been measured based on the listed market price of such Public Warrants. The estimated fair value of the Private Placement Warrants was determined using a Monte Carlo simulation method with Level 3 inputs as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024. Inherent in a Black-Scholes option pricing model and a Monte Carlo simulation method are assumptions related to expected stock-price volatility, expected life, risk-free interest rate and dividend yield. The Company estimates the volatility of its warrants based on implied volatility from the historical volatility of select peer company’s common stock that matches the expected remaining life of the warrants. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury zero-coupon yield curve on the grant date for a maturity similar to the expected remaining life of the warrants. The expected life of the warrants is assumed to be equivalent to their remaining contractual term. The dividend rate is based on the historical rate, which the Company anticipates remaining at zero.

Note 9—Segment Information
ASC Topic 280, “Segment Reporting,” establishes standards for companies to report in their financial statement information about operating segments, products, services, geographic areas, and major customers. Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise for which separate financial information is available that is regularly evaluated by the Company’s chief operating decision maker, or group, in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance. The Company’s Chief Financial Officer has been identified as the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), who reviews the operating results for the Company as a whole to make decisions about allocating resources and assessing financial performance. Accordingly, management has determined that the Company only has one reportable segment.

The CODM assesses performance for the single segment and decides how to allocate resources based on net income or loss that also is reported on the statement of operations as net income or loss. The measure of segment assets is reported on the balance sheet as total assets. When evaluating the Company’s performance and making key decisions regarding resource allocation the CODM reviews several key metrics, which include the following:

The CODM reviews investment income from cash and investments in Trust Account to measure and monitor shareholders value and determine the most effective strategy of investment with the Trust Account funds while maintaining compliance with the trust agreement. General and administrative expenses are reviewed and monitored by the CODM to manage and forecast cash to ensure enough capital is available to complete a business combination within the business combination period. The CODM also reviews general and administrative costs to manage, maintain and enforce all contractual agreements to ensure costs are aligned with all agreements and budget. General and administrative costs, as reported on the statement of operations, are the significant segment expenses provided to the CODM on a regular basis.

Overview
Our Company, dMY Squared Technology Group, Inc., is a blank check company incorporated in Massachusetts. We were formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar Business Combination with one or more businesses. We are an emerging growth company and, as such, we are subject to all of the risks associated with emerging growth companies.
As of March 31, 2025, we had not commenced any operations. All activity for the period from February 15, 2022 (inception) through March 31, 2025 relates to our formation and the Initial Public Offering as described below, and since the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the search for a prospective initial Business Combination. We will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of our initial Business Combination, at the earliest. We generate non-operating income from the proceeds derived from the Initial Public Offering.
Our Sponsor is dMY Squared Sponsor, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company. The registration statement for our Initial Public Offering was declared effective on September 29, 2022. On October 4, 2022, we consummated its Initial Public Offering of 6,000,000 units, at $10.00 per unit, generating gross proceeds of $60.0 million, and incurring offering costs of approximately $3.7 million, of which $2.1 million and approximately $26,000 was for deferred underwriting commissions and offering costs allocated to derivate warrant liabilities, respectively. On October 7, 2022, the underwriter exercised its over-allotment option in part, and on October 11, 2022, the underwriter purchased 319,000 Over-Allotment Units, generating gross proceeds of approximately $3.2 million. The underwriter waived the remainder of its over-allotment option. We incurred additional offering costs of approximately $156,000 in connection with the underwriter’s partial exercise of its over-allotment option (of which approximately $112,000 was for deferred underwriting fees).
24
Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, we consummated the Private Placement of 2,840,000 Initial Private Placement Warrants, at a price of $1.00 per Initial Private Placement Warrant to our Sponsor, generating proceeds of approximately $2.8 million. On October 11, 2022, simultaneously with the issuance and sale of the Over-Allotment Units, we consummated the sale of 44,660 Additional Private Placement Warrants generating additional gross proceeds of approximately $45,000.
In addition, concurrently with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, our Sponsor extended an Initial Overfunding Loan to the Company in the amount of $900,000 at no interest, to be deposited in the Trust Account. On October 11, 2022, simultaneously with the sale of the Over-Allotment Units, our Sponsor extended an Additional Overfunding Loan to the Company in an aggregate amount of $47,850, to be deposited in the Trust Account.
Upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Private Placement and the Overfunding Loans, approximately $64.1 million ($10.15 per unit) of the net proceeds of the sale of the units, the Over-Allotment Units, and the Private Placement Warrants and the proceeds from the Overfunding Loans were initially placed in the Trust Account and were invested in United States government securities, within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act, with a maturity of 185 days or less in any open-ended investment company that holds itself out as a money market fund meeting certain conditions of Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act, as determined by the Company, until the earlier of: (i) the completion of a Business Combination, (ii) the redemption of Public Shares properly submitted in connection with a shareholder vote to amend our Charter to modify the substance or timing of our of our obligation to redeem 100% of our Public Shares if we do not complete our initial Business Combination within the Combination Period or with respect to any other material provisions relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-initial Business Combination activity, and (iii) our return of the funds held in the Trust Account to our Public Shareholders as part of our redemption of the Public Shares if we do not complete an initial Business Combination during the Combination Period. At the Special Meeting on January 2, 2024, the Company’s shareholders approved an amendment to the Investment Management Trust Agreement, permitting the trustee to, in a timely manner, upon the written instruction of the Company, (i) hold funds uninvested, (ii) hold funds in an interest-bearing bank demand deposit account, or (iii) invest and reinvest the Property in solely United States government securities within the meaning of Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act, having a maturity of 185 days or less, or in money market funds meeting the conditions of Rule 2a-7 promulgated under the Investment Company Act, which invest only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations. The trustee is not permitted to invest in other securities or assets. Investing in our securities is not intended for persons who are seeking a return on investments in government securities or investment securities. Instead, the Trust Account is intended as a holding place for funds pending the use of such funds upon completion of a Business Combination or distribution upon redemption of our Public Shares. On September 25, 2024, the Company instructed Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, the trustee with respect to the Trust Account, to transfer its Trust Account out of investment in securities into an interest-bearing bank deposit account in order to mitigate the risk of being deemed an unregistered investment company, and the account was transferred in March 2025.
Our management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and the sale of Private Placement Warrants, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be applied generally toward consummating a Business Combination. There is no assurance that we will be able to complete a Business Combination successfully. We must complete one or more initial Business Combinations having an aggregate fair market value of at least 80% of the net assets held in the Trust Account (net of amounts disbursed to management for working capital purposes and excluding the deferred underwriting commissions and taxes payable on the interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account) at the time of the agreement to enter into the initial Business Combination. However, we will only complete a Business Combination if the post-transaction company owns or acquires 50% or more of the voting securities of the target or otherwise acquires a controlling interest in the target sufficient for it not to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act.
25
We provide our Public Shareholders with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares upon the completion of a Business Combination either (i) in connection with a shareholders’ meeting called to approve the Business Combination or (ii) by means of a tender offer. The decision as to whether we will seek shareholder approval of a Business Combination or conduct a tender offer will be made by us, solely in our discretion. The Public Shareholders will be entitled to redeem their Public Shares for a pro rata portion of the amount then held in the Trust Account. The per-share amount to be distributed to Public Shareholders who redeem their Public Shares will not be reduced by the deferred underwriting commissions we will pay to the underwriter.
We initially had 15 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering, or January 4, 2024, to consummate an initial Business Combination. On January 2, 2024, the Company held the Special Meeting. At the Special Meeting, the Company’s shareholders approved an amendment of the Company’s Charter to extend the date by which the Company has to consummate a Business Combination from January 4, 2024 to January 29, 2024, and with each Extension Period, until up to December 29, 2025, only if the Sponsor or its designee would deposit into the Trust Account as a loan, (i) on or before January 4, 2024, with respect to the initial extension, an amount of $41,667, and (ii) one business day following the public announcement by us disclosing that the board of directors has determined to implement an additional monthly extension, with respect to each such Additional Extension, an amount of $50,000. In connection with the shareholder approval of the Extension, an aggregate of 3,980,414 Public Shares were redeemed, and the Company paid approximately $42.0 million accordingly on January 4, 2024.
At the Special Meeting, the Company’s shareholders also approved proposals to (1) amend the Charter to provide for the right of a holder of Class B Shares to convert its Class B Shares into Class A Shares on a one-for-one basis at any time and from time to time at the election of the holder; (2) amend the Charter to eliminate from the Charter (i) the limitation that we may not redeem Public Shares in an amount that would cause our net tangible assets to be less than $5,000,001 and (ii) the limitation that we shall not consummate a Business Combination unless we have net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001; (3) amend the Charter to permit the board of directors, in its sole discretion, to elect to wind up our operations on an earlier date than the Extended Date or Additional Extended Date, as applicable, as determined by the board of directors and included in a public announcement; and (4) amend the Investment Management Trust Agreement to reflect the Extension and the Liquidation Amendment.
In connection with the approval of the Extension, our Sponsor, its affiliates, or its designees are required to deposit into the Trust Account, as a loan, (i) on or before January 4, 2024, with respect to the Initial Extension, an amount of $41,667, and (ii) one business day following the public announcement by us disclosing that the board of directors has determined to implement an additional monthly extension, with respect to each such Additional Extension, an amount of $50,000. In connection with the Contribution and advances our Sponsor may make in the future to us for working capital expenses, on January 2, 2024, we issued a convertible promissory note to Harry L. You, our Chairman and Chief Financial Officer and an affiliate of our Sponsor, with a principal amount up to $1.75 million. The Convertible Note bears no interest and is repayable on the earlier of: (i) the date on which we consummate an initial Business Combination and (ii) the liquidation date. If we do not consummate a Business Combination before the end of the Combination Period, the Convertible Note will be repaid only from funds held outside of the Trust Account or will be forfeited, eliminated or otherwise forgiven. Upon the consummation of our initial Business Combination, up to $1,500,000 of the outstanding principal of the Convertible Note may be converted into warrants, at a price of $1.00 per warrant, at the option of the Payee.
Since January 2, 2024, our board of directors has elected to extend our liquidation date to May 29, 2025. Accordingly, we have drawn down from the Convertible Note and deposited $841,667 into the Trust Account in connection with such extensions.
26
If we are unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, we will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter subject to lawfully available funds therefor, redeem one hundred percent (100%) of the Offering Shares in consideration of a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (A) the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest not previously released to the Company to pay its taxes (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), by (B) the total number of then outstanding Offering Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish rights of the Public Shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidating distributions, if any), subject to applicable law, and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the remaining shareholders and the board of directors in accordance with applicable law, dissolve and liquidate, subject in each case to the Company’s obligations under the MBCA to provide for claims of creditors and other requirements of applicable law.
Tax Withdrawals from Trust Account
In January 2024 and April 2024, we withdrew a total of approximately $1.9 million of funds from the Trust Account for purposes of payment of tax liabilities and tax estimates, and such funds were deposited into our operating account. Funds representing interest earned on the amounts held in the Trust Account are permitted to be withdrawn from the Trust Account for the payment of taxes under the Charter and the terms of the Trust Agreement. On April 17, 2024, we paid approximately $0.89 million for 2023 taxes, leaving approximately $0.97 million remaining to be used for upcoming tax estimates. We used approximately $0.69 million of the balance of the withdrawn funds for the payment of general operating expenses. Management determined that the use of funds was not in accordance with the Trust Agreement, and, in March 2025, our Sponsor contributed approximately $0.73 million to us representing the amount of such operating expenses plus approximately $0.04 million in respect of interest that would have been earned on the remaining amount of approximately $0.97 million for the period from the original withdrawals to the date of the contribution. We paid an aggregate of approximately $0.75 million for tax obligations on March 21, 2025. On March 25, 2025, we re-contributed to the Trust Account approximately $0.22 million of the remaining amounts not used for payment of taxes plus approximately $0.04 million in respect of interest that would have been earned had such funds remained in the Trust Account.
Letter of Intent
On February 26, 2025, the Company issued a press release announcing that it has entered into a non-binding letter of intent (“LOI”) for a business combination with Horizon Quantum Computing Pte. Ltd. (“Horizon”), a developer of advanced software development tools for quantum computers (the “proposed Horizon Business Combination”). Under the terms of the LOI, the Company and Horizon would become a combined entity. The proposed Horizon Business Combination values Horizon at a pre-money equity value of approximately $500 million. The Company expects to announce additional details regarding the proposed Horizon Business Combination when a definitive merger agreement is executed. No assurances can be made that the parties will successfully negotiate and enter into a definitive agreement, or that the proposed transaction will be consummated on the terms or timeframe currently contemplated, or at all. Any transaction would be subject to the completion of due diligence, the negotiation of a definitive agreement providing for the proposed Horizon Business Combination, satisfaction of the conditions negotiated therein, board and equity holder approval, regulatory approvals, and other customary conditions.
Liquidity and Capital Resources; Going Concern Consideration
As of March 31, 2025, we had minimal cash and working capital deficit of approximately $3.3 million. Further, we have incurred and expected to continue to incur significant costs in pursuit of our acquisition plans.
27
Prior to the consummation of the Initial Public Offering, our liquidity needs were satisfied through the payment of $25,000 from our Sponsor to purchase Founder Shares and a loan under the Note in the amount of approximately $145,000. We fully repaid the Note balance on October 4, 2022. The Note was no longer available to us after closing of our Initial Public Offering. Subsequent to the closing of the Initial Public Offering and the Partial Over-Allotment, our liquidity needs have been satisfied through the net proceeds from the consummation of the Initial Public Offering and the Private Placement held outside of the Trust Account and advances from related parties (approximately $1. million in advances outstanding as of March 31, 2025).
In addition, in order to provide the Contribution and to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, we issued the Convertible Note to an affiliate of the Sponsor with a principal amount up to $1.75 million on January 2, 2024 as discussed above. As of March 31, 2025, we had an outstanding amount of $791,667 under the Convertible Note. Subsequent to March 31, 2025, we borrowed and an additional amount of $150,000, increasing the total amount outstanding under the Convertible Note to $841,667. All proceeds received under the Convertible Note were contributed into the Trust Account in connection with extensions to extend the Combination Period to May 29, 2025.
In connection with our management’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with FASB ASC 2014-15, “Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern,” our management has determined that the liquidity condition, mandatory liquidation, should a Business Combination not occur, and potential subsequent dissolution raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern through the earlier of the liquidation date or the completion of the initial Business Combination. There is no assurance that our plans to consummate the initial Business Combination will be successful or successful within the Combination Period. These unaudited condensed financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Risks and Uncertainties
Various macroeconomic, geopolitical and regulatory uncertainties and challenges pose risks to economic conditions in the U.S. and globally, including, among others, any resurgence in inflation; changes to trade, immigration, energy and other policies resulting from the new U.S. administration; changes in interest rate policies; the Russia-Ukraine war; conflicts in the Middle East; and economic conditions and tensions involving China.
These and other risks could negatively impact economic growth rates and unemployment levels in the U.S. and other countries and result in volatility and disruptions in financial markets. Such risks could also adversely affect the Company’s search for an initial Business Combination and any target business with which the Company may ultimately consummate an initial Business Combination.
Results of Operations
Our entire activity from February 15, 2022 (inception) through March 31, 2025 is related to our formation and the preparation for our Initial Public Offering, and since the closing of our Initial Public Offering, the search for a prospective initial Business Combination. We will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of our initial Business Combination. We generate non-operating income in the form of investment income from the Trust Account. We will continue to incur increased expenses as a result of being a public company (for legal, financial reporting, accounting and auditing compliance), as well as for due diligence expenses. Additionally, we recognize non-cash gains and losses within other income (expense) related to changes in recurring fair value measurement of our derivative liabilities at each reporting period.
For the three months ended March 31, 2025, we had net loss of approximately $4.6 million, which consisted of approximately $492,000 of general and administrative expenses (of which $30,000 was for administrative expenses paid to our Sponsor) and approximately $37,000 of tax expenses, and approximately $4.3 million of loss from change in fair value of the derivative warrant liabilities, partially offset by approximately $264,000 of interest income from operating account and cash and investments held in the Trust Account.
For the three months ended March 31, 2024, we had net loss of approximately $168,000, which consisted of approximately $377,000 of general and administrative expenses (of which $30,000 was for administrative expenses paid to our Sponsor) and approximately $137,000 of tax expenses, partially offset by approximately $346,000 of interest income from operating account and investments held in Trust Account.
28
Contractual Obligations
Administrative Services Agreement
On October 4, 2022, we entered into an agreement pursuant to which we agreed to pay our Sponsor $10,000 per month for office space, administrative and support services. Upon completion of a Business Combination or our liquidation, we will cease paying these monthly fees. We recorded $30,000 in connection with such fees during each of the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 in the accompanying unaudited condensed statements of operations. We recorded an outstanding balance of $220,000 and $190,000 as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively in connection with such fees in accrued expenses in the accompanying balance sheets.
Our Sponsor, executive officers and directors, or any of their respective affiliates will be reimbursed for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with activities on our behalf such as identifying potential target businesses and performing due diligence on suitable Business Combinations. Our audit committee will review on a quarterly basis all payments that were made to our Sponsor, executive officers or directors, or our or their affiliates.
Registration Rights
The holders of Founder Shares, Private Placement Warrants and warrants that may be issued upon conversion of working capital loans and the Contributions (and any shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of the Private Placement Warrants or warrants issued upon conversion of the Working Capital Loans and the Contributions and upon conversion of the Founder Shares and the Overfunding Loans), will be entitled to registration rights pursuant to a registration and shareholder rights agreement signed upon the consummation of the Initial Public Offering. These holders will be entitled to certain demand and “piggyback” registration rights. We will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.
Underwriting Agreement
The underwriter was entitled to an underwriting discount of $0.14 per unit, or approximately $0.8 million in the aggregate, paid upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering. An additional fee of $0.35 per unit, or $2.1 million in the aggregate will be payable to the underwriter for deferred underwriting commissions. The deferred fee will become payable to the underwriter from the amounts held in the Trust Account solely in the event that we complete a Business Combination, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement.
The underwriter was entitled to an additional fee of approximately $45,000, which was paid upon closing of the over-allotment option, and approximately $112,000 in deferred underwriting commissions in connection with the consummation of the underwriter’s partial exercise of its over-allotment option.
Overfunding Loans
Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Sponsor extended the Overfunding Loan to the Company in an aggregate amount of $900,000. On October 11, 2022, simultaneously with the sale of the Over-Allotment Units, the Sponsor extended the Additional Overfunding Loan to the Company in an amount of $47,850, for an aggregate outstanding principal amount of $947,850 to be deposited in the Trust Account. Upon the closing of the initial Business Combination, the Overfunding Loans will be repaid or converted into Class A Shares at a conversion price of $10.00 per share (or a combination of both), at the Sponsor’s discretion. If the Company does not complete an initial Business Combination, it will not repay the Overfunding Loans from amounts held in the Trust Account, and its proceeds will be distributed to the Public Shareholders; however, the Company may repay the Overfunding Loans if there are funds available outside the Trust Account to do so.
29
Convertible Promissory Note
In connection with the Contribution and advances our Sponsor may make in the future to our Company for working capital expenses, on January 2, 2024, we issued a Convertible Note to an affiliate of our Sponsor with a principal amount up to $1.75 million. The Convertible Note bears no interest and is repayable in full upon the earlier of (a) the date of the consummation of our initial Business Combination, or (b) the date of our liquidation. If we do not consummate an initial Business Combination by the end of the Combination Period, the Convertible Note will be repaid only from funds held outside of the Trust Account or will be forfeited, eliminated or otherwise forgiven. Upon the consummation of our initial Business Combination, up to $1,500,000 of the outstanding principal of the Convertible Note may be converted into warrants, at a price of $1.00 per warrant, at the option of the Sponsor. Such warrants will have terms identical to the Private Placement Warrants.
As of March 31, 2025, we had an outstanding amount of $791,667 under the Convertible Note. Subsequent to March 31, 2025, we borrowed an additional amount of $150,000, increasing the total amount outstanding under the Convertible Note to $841,667. All proceeds received under the Convertible Note were contributed into the Trust Account in connection with extensions to extend the Combination Period to May 29, 2025.
The option to convert the Convertible Note into warrants qualifies as an embedded derivative under ASC 815 and is required to be recognized at fair value with subsequent changes in fair value recognized in our statements of operations each reporting period until the Convertible Note is repaid or converted. As of the funding date and March 31, 2025, the fair value of the embedded conversion option was de minimis.
Critical Accounting Estimates
The preparation of the financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited condensed financial statements, and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. We have identified the following critical accounting policies:
Warrant Liabilities
The warrants issued in connection with Public Warrants and the Private Placement Warrants were recognized as derivative liabilities in accordance with ASC 815. Accordingly, we recognized the warrant instruments as liabilities at fair value and will adjust the instruments to fair value at each reporting period. The liabilities are subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet date until exercised, and any change in fair value will be recognized in the statements of operations. The fair value of the Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants were initially measured at fair value using the Black-Scholes model and the Monte Carlo simulation model, respectively. Beginning in December 2022, the fair value of Public Warrants has been measured based on the listed market price of such Public Warrants. The estimated fair value of the Private Placement Warrants was subsequently determined using the Monte Carlo simulation method with Level 3 inputs. The determination of the fair value of the derivative warrant liabilities may be subject to change as more current information becomes available and accordingly the actual results could differ significantly.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements and Contractual Obligations
As of March 31, 2025, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as defined in Item 303(b)(1) of Regulation S-K and did not have any commitments or contractual obligations.
30
JOBS Act
On April 5, 2012, the JOBS Act was signed into law. The JOBS Act contains provisions that, among other things, relax certain reporting requirements for qualifying public companies. We qualify as an “emerging growth company” under the JOBS Act and are allowed to comply with new or revised accounting pronouncements based on the effective date for private (not publicly traded) companies. We elected to delay the adoption of new or revised accounting standards, and as a result, we may not comply with new or revised accounting standards on the relevant dates on which adoption of such standards is required for non-emerging growth companies. As a result, our financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with new or revised accounting pronouncements as of public company effective dates.
As an “emerging growth company”, we are not required to, among other things, (i) provide an auditor’s attestation report on our system of internal controls over financial reporting pursuant to Section 404, (ii) provide all of the compensation disclosure that may be required of non-emerging growth public companies under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, (iii) comply with any requirement that may be adopted by the PCAOB regarding mandatory audit firm rotation or a supplement to the auditor’s report providing additional information about the audit and the financial statements (auditor discussion and analysis), and (iv) disclose certain executive compensation related items such as the correlation between executive compensation and performance and comparisons of the CEO’s compensation to median employee compensation. These exemptions will apply for a period of five years following the completion of our Initial Public Offering or until we are no longer an “emerging growth company,” whichever is earlier.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and are not required to provide the information otherwise required under this item.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in Company reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial and accounting officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
As required by Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act, our principal executive officer and principal financial and accounting officer carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon his evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(3) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) were not effective as of March 31, 2025 due to the material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting which was initially disclosed in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 filed with the SEC on April 3, 2025. In light of this material weakness, we performed additional analysis as deemed necessary to ensure that our financial statements were prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
31
We do not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all errors and all instances of fraud. Disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met. Further, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all disclosure controls and procedures, no evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures can provide absolute assurance that we have detected all our control deficiencies and instances of fraud, if any. The design of disclosure controls and procedures also is based partly on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.
Status Update
Management intended to take steps to remediate this material weakness, including plans to implement increasing scrutiny over Trust Account balances, to enhance documentation of processes, and to increase communication among the management and board of directors.
The elements of our remediation plan can only be accomplished over time. We continue reviewing and implementing our remediation plan and we believe that the planned processes, procedures and reviews are necessary to address the material weakness, however until the applicable controls operate for a sufficient period of time and management has concluded, through testing, that these controls are operating effectively, the material weaknesses will not be considered remediated. We can offer no assurance that these initiatives will ultimately have the intended effects. We are committed to the continuous improvement of our internal control over financial reporting and will continue to diligently review our internal control over financial reporting.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Except as described above under “Remediation Efforts to Address the Identified Material Weakness,” there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2025 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
32
PART II—OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
None.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
Factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those in this Report are any of the risks described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on April 3, 2025. Any of these factors could result in a significant or material adverse effect on our results of operations or financial condition. Additional risk factors not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also impair our business or results of operations. As of the date of this Report, except as described below, there have been no material changes to the risk factors disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 filed with the SEC on April 3, 2025. We may disclose changes to such factors or disclose additional factors from time to time in our future filings with the SEC.
Changes in international trade policies, tariffs and treaties affecting imports and exports may have a material adverse effect on our search for an initial Business Combination target, our ability to complete an initial Business Combination, and/or our business, financial condition and results of operations following completion of an initial Business Combination.
There have recently been significant changes to international trade policies and tariffs affecting imports and exports. The U.S. has implemented a range of new tariffs and increases to existing tariffs, and, in response to the tariffs announced by the U.S., other countries have imposed new or increased tariffs on certain exports from the United States. There is currently significant uncertainty about the future relationship between the United States and other countries with respect to trade policies, government regulations and tariffs. We cannot predict whether, and to what extent, current tariffs will continue or trade policies will change in the future. Any significant increases in tariffs on goods or materials or other changes in trade policy, or the perception that such changes could occur, could negatively affect our search for a Business Combination target and/or our ability to complete our initial Business Combination. For example, if we pursue a target company which sources or manufactures material components outside of the U.S., these changes could materially impact such target company’s business and financial performance. Similarly, if we pursue a target company which exports products outside of the U.S., retaliatory tariff and trade measures imposed by other countries could affect such target’s ability to export products and therefore adversely affect its sales. We may not be able to adequately address the risks presented by these tariffs or other potential trade policy changes. As a result, we may deem it costly, impractical or risky to complete an initial Business Combination with a particular target or with a target in a particular industry or from a particular country. Consequently, the pool of potential target companies may be reduced, which could impair our ability to identify a suitable target and to complete an initial Business Combination. The business prospects of a particular target for a Business Combination could change even after we enter into a business combination agreement, as a result of tariffs or the threat of tariffs that may have a material impact on that target’s business. Accordingly, changes in trade and tariff policies could prevent or make it difficult or more expensive for us to complete an initial Business Combination. Tariffs and threats of tariffs and other potential trade policy changes could also lead to material adverse effects on a post-Business Combination company.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
On March 16, 2022, we issued to our Sponsor an aggregate of 2,875,000 Founder Shares for a total purchase price of $25,000, or approximately $0.009 per share. On September 8, 2022, our Sponsor surrendered to us 718,750 Founder Shares for no consideration, resulting in our Sponsor owning 2,156,250 Founder Shares and increasing the approximate price paid per Founder Share to $0.012. On September 29, 2022, our Sponsor surrendered to us an additional 431,250 Founder Shares for no consideration, resulting in our Sponsor owning 1,725,000 Founder Shares and increasing the approximate price paid per Founder Share to $0.015. On October 7, 2022, the underwriter exercised its over-allotment option in part, and on October 11, 2022, the underwriter purchased 319,000 Over-Allotment Units, generating gross proceeds of approximately $3.2 million. The underwriter waived the remainder of its over-allotment option. Accordingly, the Sponsor forfeited 145,250 Founder Shares on October 11, 2022. No underwriting discounts or commissions were paid with respect to such sales of Founder Shares. This issuance was made pursuant to the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.
On October 4, 2022, we consummated our Initial Public Offering of 6,000,000 units at a price of $10.00 per unit, generating net proceeds to the Company of $59,135,000 (after giving effect to the reimbursement of certain of the Company’s expenses and the upfront portion of the underwriter’s discount, equal to $0.14 per unit). The securities sold in our Initial Public Offering were registered under the Securities Act on a registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-267381). The SEC declared the registration statement effective on September 29, 2022.
33
Simultaneously with the consummation of the Initial Public Offering, we completed an Initial Private Placement of an aggregate of 2,840,000 Initial Private Placement Warrants to our Sponsor at a purchase price of $1.00 per Initial Private Placement Warrant, generating gross proceeds of $8,840,000. On October 11, 2022, simultaneously with the sale of the underwriter’s Over-Allotment Units, the Company completed an Additional Private Placement with our Sponsor for 44,660 Additional Private Placement Warrants at a price of $1.00 per Additional Private Placement Warrant, generating proceeds to the Company of $44,660. In addition, concurrently with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, our Sponsor extended an Initial Overfunding Loan to the Company in the amount of $900,000 at no interest, to be deposited in the Trust Account. On October 11, 2022, simultaneously with the sale of the Over-Allotment Units, our Sponsor extended an Additional Overfunding Loan to the Company in an aggregate amount of $47,850, to be deposited in the Trust Account. No underwriting discounts or commissions were paid with respect to the Private Placement or Overfunding Loans. These issuances were made pursuant to the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.
Upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Private Placement and the Overfunding Loans, approximately $64.1 million ($10.15 per unit) of the net proceeds of the sale of the units, Over-Allotment Units, and the Private Placement Warrants and the proceeds from the Overfunding Loans were placed in the Trust Account.
