Note 1 — Description of Organization and Business Operations


Breeze Holdings Acquisition Corp. (the “Company") is a blank check company incorporated in Delaware on June 11, 2020. 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 early stage and emerging growth company and, as such, the Company is subject to all of the risks associated with early stage and emerging growth companies.


As of June 30, 2024, the Company had not commenced any operations. All activity through June 30, 2024 relates to the Company’s formation, the Initial Public Offering (“Initial Public Offering”), which is described below, and, after the Initial Public Offering, identifying a target company for a Business Combination. The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of its initial Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company will generate non-operating income in the form of interest income from the proceeds derived from the Initial Public Offering and from changes in the fair value of its warrant liability.


The registration statement for the Company’s Initial Public Offering was declared effective on November 23, 2020. On November 25, 2020, the Company consummated the Initial Public Offering of 11,500,000 units (the “Units” and, with respect to the shares of common stock included in the Units sold, the “Public Shares”), generating gross proceeds of $115,000,000, which is described in Note 3.


Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the sale of 5,425,000 warrants (the “Private Placement Warrants”) at a price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant in a private placement to Breeze Sponsor, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Sponsor”) and I-Bankers Securities, Inc, generating gross proceeds of $5,425,000, which is described in Note 4.


Following the closing of the Initial Public Offering on November 25, 2020, an amount of $115,000,000 ($10.00 per Unit) from the net proceeds of the sale of the Units in the Initial Public Offering and $1,725,000 from the sale of the Private Placement Warrants was placed in a trust account (the “Trust Account”) and invested in 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 in any open-ended investment company that holds itself out as a money market fund selected by the Company meeting the conditions of Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), as determined by the Company, until the earlier of: (i) the completion of a Business Combination or (ii) the distribution of the Trust Account to the Company’s stockholders, as described below. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 all funds in the trust account were held in cash in an interest-bearing account.


Transaction costs incurred in connection with the Initial Public Offering amounted to $4,099,907, consisting of $2,300,000 of underwriting fees, $1,322,350 of representative share offering costs, and $477,557 of other offering costs. As of June 30, 2024, cash of $39,970 was held outside of the Trust Account and was available for working capital purposes.


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 the 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 an initial Business Combination having an aggregate fair market value of at least 80% of the assets held in the Trust Account (excluding the deferred underwriting commissions and taxes payable) at the time of the agreement to enter into the initial Business Combination. The Company will only complete a Business Combination if the post-transaction company owns or acquires 50% or more of the outstanding 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 of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”).

 

The Company will provide its stockholders 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 stockholder meeting called to approve the Business Combination or (ii) by means of a tender offer. The decision as to whether the Company will seek stockholder approval of a Business Combination or conduct a tender offer will be made by the Company, solely in its discretion. The stockholders will be entitled to redeem their shares for a pro rata portion of the amount then in the Trust Account (initially $10.15 per share), plus any pro rata interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay its tax obligations. The per-share amount to be distributed to stockholders who redeem their shares will not be reduced by the deferred underwriting commissions the Company will pay to the underwriters (as discussed in Note 6). There will be no redemption rights upon the completion of a Business Combination with respect to the Company’s warrants.

 

The Company will proceed with a Business Combination only if the Company has net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001 upon such consummation of a Business Combination and, if the Company seeks stockholder approval, a majority of the outstanding shares voted are voted in favor of the Business Combination. If a stockholder vote is not required and the Company does not decide to hold a stockholder vote for business or other legal reasons, the Company will, pursuant to its Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, conduct the redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and file tender offer documents containing substantially the same information as would be included in a proxy statement with the SEC prior to completing a Business Combination. If the Company seeks stockholder approval in connection with a Business Combination, the Company’s Sponsor has agreed to vote its Founder Shares (as defined in Note 5) and any Public Shares purchased by it during or after the Initial Public Offering in favor of approving a Business Combination. Additionally, each public stockholder may elect to redeem their Public Shares, regardless of whether they vote for or against a Business Combination.

 

If the Company seeks stockholder approval of a Business Combination and it does not conduct redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules, the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation provides that a public stockholder, together with any affiliate of such stockholder or any other person with whom such stockholder 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 seeking redemption rights with respect to 10% or more of the Public Shares, without the Company’s prior written consent.

 

The Sponsor has agreed (a) to waive its redemption rights with respect to any Founder Shares and Public Shares held by it in connection with the completion of a Business Combination, (b) to waive its liquidation rights with respect to the Founder Shares and (c) not to propose an amendment to the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (i) to modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to allow redemption in connection with the Company’s initial Business Combination or to redeem 100% of its Public Shares if the Company does not complete a Business Combination or (ii) with respect to any other provision relating to stockholders’ rights or pre-initial business combination activity, unless the Company provides the public stockholders with the opportunity to redeem their Public Shares in conjunction with any such amendment. However, if the Sponsor acquires Public Shares in or after the Initial Public Offering, such Public Shares will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the approved time period through December 26, 2024, (the "Combination Period").

 

The Company held a meeting of its stockholders on March 22, 2023 where the Company’s stockholders approved (i) a proposal to amend the Company’s A&R COI to authorize the Company to extend the date of March 26, 2023, up to six (6) times for an additional one (1) month each time (ultimately until as late as September 26, 2023), and (ii) a proposal to amend the Trust Agreement to authorize the Extension and its implementation by the Company.


The Company held a meeting of its stockholders on September 22, 2023 where the Company’s stockholders approved (i) a proposal to amend the Company’s A&R COI to authorize the Company to extend the date of September 26, 2023, up to nine (9) times for an additional one (1) month each time (ultimately until as late as June 26, 2024), and (ii) a proposal to amend the Trust Agreement to authorize the Extension and its implementation by the Company. On September 27, 2023, October 25, 2023, November 27, 2023, December 27, 2023, January 26, 2024, February 27, 2024, March 26, 2024, May 7, 2024 and June 3, 2024 Breeze executed the thirteenth, fourteenth, fifteenth, sixteenth, seventeenth, eighteenth, nineteenth, twentieth and twenty-first one-month extensions through June 26, 2024.


The Company held a meeting of its stockholders on June 21, 2024 where the Company’s stockholders approved (i) a proposal to amend the Company’s A&R COI to authorize the Company to extend the date of December 26, 2024, up to six (6) times for an additional one (1) month each time (ultimately until as late as December 26, 2024), and (ii) a proposal to amend the Trust Agreement to authorize the Extension and its implementation by the Company. On  June 26, 2024 Breeze executed the twenty-second one-month extensions through July 26, 2024. On August 1, 2024 Breeze executed the twenty-third one-month extension through August 26, 2024. If the Company executes all six (6) extensions, up to December 26, 2024 and has not completed a business combination,  the Company may hold a meeting of its stockholders to approve (i) a proposal to amend the Company’s A&R COI to authorize the Company an extension for a designated time, and (ii) a proposal to amend the Trust Agreement to authorize the Extension and its implementation by the Company.

 

If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within 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, redeem the Public Shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay its tax obligations (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then outstanding Public Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public stockholders’ rights as stockholders (including the right to receive further liquidating distributions, if any), and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the Company’s remaining stockholders and the Company’s board of directors, dissolve and liquidate, subject in each case to the Company’s obligations under Delaware law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. There will be no redemption rights or liquidating distributions with respect to the Company’s warrants, which will expire worthless if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period.


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 for services rendered or products sold to the Company, or a prospective target business with which the Company has discussed entering into a transaction agreement, reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account to below (1) $11.12 per Public Share or (2) the actual amount per Public Share held in the Trust Account as of the date of the liquidation of the Trust Account due to reductions in the value of the trust assets, in each case net of the interest which may be withdrawn to pay our taxes. This liability will not apply with respect to any claims by a third party who executed a waiver of any and all rights to seek access to the Trust Account and will not apply to any claims under the Company’s indemnity of the underwriters of the Initial Public Offering against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). Moreover, in the event that an executed waiver is deemed to be unenforceable against a third party, the Sponsor will not be responsible to the extent of any liability for such third-party claims. 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.


On October 31, 2022, Breeze entered into the Original Merger Agreement, by and among Breeze, BH Velocity Merger Sub, Inc. (“Company Merger Sub”), and TV Ammo, Inc., an advanced technology manufacturing and licensing company focused on revolutionizing the global ammunition and weapons industry through the introduction of its composite-cased ammunition, innovative weapons systems and advanced manufacturing technology (“TV Ammo”). On February 14, 2024, Breeze entered into an Amended and Restated Merger Agreement and Plan of Reorganization (the “A&R Merger Agreement”), by and among Breeze, True Velocity, Inc. ("True Velocity"), Breeze Merger Sub, Inc. ("Parent Merger Sub"), Company Merger Sub, and TV Ammo, which amended and restated the Original Merger Agreement in its entirety.


On August 5, 2024, the A&R Merger Agreement was terminated by written notice from TV Ammo.  As a result of the termination, the Company is no longer pursuing a business Combination with TV Ammo.

 

Going Concern

 

As of June 30, 2024, the Company had $39,970 in cash held outside of the Trust Account and negative working capital of $9,523,707, excluding prepaid income taxes, prepaid franchise taxes and excise tax payable.

 

The Company’s liquidity needs prior to the consummation of the Initial Public Offering were satisfied through proceeds of $25,000 from the sale of the Founder Shares, and a loan of $300,000 under an unsecured and non-interest bearing promissory note (see Note 5). Subsequent to the consummation of the Initial Public Offering, the Company’s liquidity needs have been satisfied from the net proceeds from the private placement held outside of the Trust Account.


The Company has incurred and expects to continue to incur significant costs in pursuit of its acquisition plans. In order to finance transaction costs in connection with an intended initial business combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor, or certain of the Company’s officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds as may be required (“Working Capital Loans”). There is no assurance that the Company’s plans to consummate a business combination or obtain Working Capital Loans will be successful or successful within the Combination Period.


We believe we will need to raise additional funds in order to meet the expenditures required for operating our business. If our estimate of the costs of identifying a target business, undertaking in-depth due diligence and negotiating a business combination are less than the actual amount necessary to do so, we may have insufficient funds available to operate our business prior to our business combination. Moreover, we may need to obtain additional financing either to complete our business combination or because we become obligated to redeem a significant number of our public shares upon consummation of our business combination, in which case we may issue additional securities or incur debt in connection with such business combination. Subject to compliance with applicable securities laws, we would only complete such financing simultaneously with the completion of our business combination. If we are unable to complete our business combination because we do not have sufficient funds available to us, we will be forced to cease operations and liquidate the trust account. In addition, following our business combination, if cash on hand is insufficient, we may need to obtain additional financing in order to meet our obligations.


The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are available to be issued. The Company's business plan is dependent on the completion of a business combination and the Company's cash and working capital as of June 30, 2024 are not sufficient to complete its planned activities. These conditions raise a substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.


Risks and uncertainties

 

With rising tensions around the world based on the current conflict between Israel and Hamas and the current conflict between Ukraine and Russia, we may be unable to complete a business combination if concerns related to this and other potential conflicts impact global capital markets, the ability to transfer money, currency exchange rates, cyber attacks and infrastructure including power generation and transmission, communications, and travel. Escalating conflicts could also have an impact on global demands for health care, international trade including vendor supply chains, and energy. In addition, there have been recent threats to infrastructure and equipment including cyber attacks, physical facility destruction and equipment destruction. The outcome of these conflicts or their impact cannot be predicted and may have an adverse impact in a material way on our ability to consummate a business combination, or to operate a target business with which we ultimately consummate a business combination.

 

On August 16, 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (the “Inflation Reduction Act”) was signed into law, which, among other things, imposes a 1% excise tax on the fair market value of stock repurchased by a domestic corporation beginning in 2023, with certain exceptions. Because the Company is a Delaware corporation and its securities were traded on the Nasdaq Stock Market, the Company is a “covered corporation” within the meaning of the Inflation Reduction Act, and while not free from doubt, it is possible that the excise tax will apply to any redemptions of its common stock after December 31, 2022, including redemptions in connection with an initial Business Combination and any amendment to its certificate of incorporation to extend the time to consummate an initial Business Combination, unless an exemption is available. Consequently, the value of an investment in the Company’s securities may decrease as a result of the excise tax. In addition, the excise tax may make a transaction with the Company less appealing to potential Business Combination targets, and thus, potentially hinder the Company’s ability to enter into and consummate an initial Business Combination. Further, the application of the excise tax in the event of a liquidation is uncertain absent further guidance.

 

On March 29, 2023, the Company redeemed 509,712 shares of its common stock subject to redemption at $10.56 per share for $5.4 million. On September 26, 2023, the Company redeemed 21,208 shares of its common stock subject to redemption at $10.77 per share for approximately $231,000. On June 26, 2024, the Company redeemed 265,564 shares of its common stock subject to redemption at $11.60 per share for approximately $3.1 million. Management evaluated the classification of the stock redemption under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 450, “Contingencies”. ASC 450 states that when a loss contingency exists the likelihood that the future event(s) will confirm the loss or impairment of an asset or the incurrence of a liability can range from probable to remote.  A contingent liability must be reviewed at each reporting period to determine appropriate treatment. Management determined that it should recognize a 1% excise tax on the redemption amount paid. As of June 30, 2024, the Company recorded $87,087 of excise tax liability calculated as 1% of shares redeemed.  In 2023, the Company recorded a contingent liability of $56,270 for excise tax. On June 26, 2024, the Company recorded a contingent liability of $30,817 for excise tax. Any reduction to this liability resulting from either a subsequent stock issuance or an event giving rise to an exception that occurs within this tax year, will be recognized in the period (including an interim period) that such stock issuance or event giving rise to an exception occurs.

 

We may maintain cash balances at third-party financial institutions in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the “FDIC”) insurance limit. The FDIC took control and was appointed receiver of Silicon Valley Bank and New York Signature Bank on March 10, 2023 and March 12, 2023, respectively. The Company does not have any direct exposure to Silicon Valley Bank or New York Signature Bank. However, if other banks and financial institutions enter receivership or become insolvent in the future in response to financial conditions affecting the banking system and financial markets, our ability to access our existing cash, cash equivalents and investments may be threatened and could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.
