NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

SEPTEMBER 30, 2023

Note 1 — Description of Organization and Business Operations

StoneBridge Acquisition Corporation (the “Company”) was incorporated in the Cayman Islands on February 2, 2021. The Company was formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar Business Combination with one or more businesses (the “Business Combination”).

The Company is not limited to a particular industry or geographic region for purposes of consummating a 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.

On January 12, 2023, The Company filed a Form 8-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission to report that on January 5, 2023, the Company entered into a Business Combination Agreement with DigiAsia Bios Pte. Ltd., a Singapore private company limited by shares (“DigiAsia”), and the other parties thereto (as it may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Business Combination Agreement”). Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Business Combination Agreement, and in accordance with applicable law, StoneBridge Acquisition Pte. Ltd., a Singapore private company limited by shares and a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, will amalgamate with DigiAsia, with DigiAsia surviving the amalgamation as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Business Combination”).

In connection with the execution of the Business Combination Agreement, StoneBridge Acquisition Sponsor LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Sponsor”) entered into a support agreement with DigiAsia (the “Sponsor Support Agreement”) pursuant to which the Sponsor has agreed to vote all StoneBridge Ordinary Shares beneficially owned by it in favor of the Amalgamation. Pursuant to the Sponsor Support Agreement, the Sponsor has also agreed to certain share lock-up provisions (the “Sponsor Lock-up Provisions”).

In addition, in connection with the execution of the Business Combination Agreement, certain shareholders of DigiAsia entered into a support agreement (the “DigiAsia Shareholder Support Agreement”) with StoneBridge and DigiAsia pursuant to which such shareholders agreed to vote all shares of DigiAsia beneficially owned by them in favor of the Amalgamation.

In connection with the Transactions, StoneBridge, DigiAsia and certain shareholders of DigiAsia who will receive PubCo Ordinary Shares pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, have entered into a registration rights agreement (“Registration Rights Agreement”), to become effective upon the Closing.

Prior to the consummation of the Transactions, certain DigiAsia shareholders, including all executive officers, heads of business lines and directors of DigiAsia as well as any other existing shareholder of DigiAsia holding greater than 1% of its share capital, will enter into a lock-up agreement (the “DigiAsia Shareholder Lock-up Agreement”) with DigiAsia and StoneBridge. Under the terms of the DigiAsia Shareholder Lock-up Agreement, and under the terms of the Sponsor Lock-up Provisions contained in the Sponsor Support Agreement, such certain DigiAsia shareholders and the Sponsor, each agree, subject to certain customary exceptions, not to:

(i) sell, offer to sell, contract or agree to sell, assign, lend, offer, encumber, donate, hypothecate, pledge, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase or otherwise transfer, dispose of or agree to transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, or establish or increase a put equivalent position or liquidate or decrease a call equivalent position (A) any PubCo Ordinary Shares, or (B) any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for PubCo Ordinary Shares, in each case, held by it immediately after the Effective Time (the “Lock-up Shares”)

(ii) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of any of the Lock-up Shares, whether any such transaction is to be settled by delivery of such securities, in cash or otherwise or; or

(iii) publicly announce any intention to effect any transaction specified in clause (i) or (ii) above until the earlier of (A) (1) with respect to the DigiAsia shareholder’s Lock-Up Shares and 250,000 of the Sponsor’s Lock-Up Shares, nine months after the Closing Date, or (2) in the case of the remainder of the Sponsor’s Lock-Up Shares, six months after the Closing Date, and (B) subsequent to the Amalgamation, (1) if the last sale price of PubCo Ordinary Shares equals or exceeds $12.00 per PubCo Ordinary Share (as adjusted for

5

share splits, share consolidations, share capitalizations, rights issuances, subdivisions, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after the Amalgamation, or (2) the date on which PubCo completes a liquidation, merger, share exchange, reorganization or other similar transaction that results in all of PubCo’s shareholders having the right to exchange their PubCo Ordinary Shares for cash, securities or other property.

In connection with the Closing, StoneBridge, the Sponsor and Alexander Rusli (the “Founder”) will enter into a Director Nomination Agreement (the “Director Nomination Agreement”) pursuant to which the parties agreed that, among other things, at every meeting of PubCo Board of Directors (the “PubCo Board”), or a committee thereof, or action by written consent, at or by which directors of PubCo are appointed by PubCo Board or are nominated to stand for election and elected by shareholders of PubCo, the Sponsor shall have the right to appoint or nominate for election to PubCo Board, as applicable, two individuals (each a “Nominee,” and together, the “Nominees”), to serve as directors of PubCo; provided, that such Nominees shall be reasonably acceptable to the Founder. Further, PubCo shall take, and the Founder shall use his best efforts to cause PubCo to take, all necessary actions within its control, such that, as of the Effective Time, the Nominees shall either be elected by PubCo’s shareholders at the meeting held to approve the Transactions or appointed to PubCo Board.

On June 26, 2023, in connection with the proposed transaction, the Company filed a Registration Statement on Form F-4 with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, which included a proxy statement/prospectus and certain other related documents, which will be distributed to shareholders of the Company’s common stock in connection with the Company’s extraordinary general meeting of shareholders with respect to the proposed business combination transaction and other matters as described in the definitive proxy statement, as well as a prospectus relating to the offer and sale of the securities of DigiAsia to be issued in the proposed business combination transaction. The definitive proxy statement/prospectus will be sent to all of the Company’s shareholders as of a record date to be established for voting on the transaction. Concurrently with the execution and delivery of the Business Combination Agreement, the Sponsor, DigiAsia and additional holders of founder shares entered into the Sponsor Support Agreement, pursuant to which, among other things, the Sponsor agreed to (a) support and vote their founder shares in favor of the Business Combination Agreement and the other transaction agreements to which the Company is or will be a party and the Business Combination; (b) subject their founder shares to certain transfer restrictions; and (c) after the Effective Time, for as long as the Sponsor (or a permitted transferee of Sponsor) holds Warrants, any exercise by Sponsor (or a Permitted Transferee of the Sponsor) of such Warrants will only be done on a cash (and not a cashless) basis. Concurrently with the execution and delivery of the Business Combination Agreement, DigiAsia, the Sponsor and the other parties thereto entered into the Registration Rights Agreement, pursuant to which DigiAsia agreed, among other things, to file a registration statement to register the resale of certain securities of DigiAsia held by the Holders and to provide the parties thereto customary demand, shelf and piggy-back rights on secondary offerings, subject to customary cut-back provisions and coordinated offerings.

As of September 30, 2023, the Company had not commenced any operations. All activity through September 30, 2023, relates to the Company’s formation and initial public offering (the “Initial Public Offering”), which is described below, and, since the 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 will generate non-operating income in the form of interest income earned on investments from the proceeds derived from the Initial Public Offering. The registration statement for the Company’s Initial Public Offering was declared effective on July 15, 2021. On July 20, 2021, the Company consummated the Initial Public Offering of 20,000,000 units (the “Units”) with respect to the Class A ordinary shares (the “Class A Ordinary Shares”) included in the Units being offered (the “Public Shares”) at $10.00 per Unit generating gross proceeds of $200,000,000, which is discussed in Note 3.

Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the sale of 8,000,000 warrants (“Private Placement Warrants”) at a price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant in a private placement to the Company’s sponsor, StoneBridge Acquisition Sponsor LLC and underwriters generating gross proceeds of $8,000,000, which is described in Note 4.

Offering costs for the Initial Public Offering amounted to $13,577,812, consisting of $4,000,000 of underwriting fees, $9,000,000 of deferred underwriting fees payable (which are held in the Trust Account (defined below)) and $577,812 of other costs. The Company immediately expensed $757,003 of offering costs in connection with the Warrants that were classified as liabilities. As described in Note 6, the $9,000,000 of deferred underwriting fee payable is contingent upon the consummation of a Business Combination by October 20, 2022, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement. On September 30, 2022, the Company extended the time for a Business Combination for a further period of three months i.e., from October 20, 2022 to January 20, 2023. At the Extraordinary General Meeting held on January 20, 2023, the Company’s shareholders approved the proposal to amend the Company’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association (the “Extension Amendment”) to give the Company the right to extend the date by which it has to consummate a business combination from January 20, 2023 up to 6 times for an additional one (1) month each time up to July

6

20, 2023 (i.e., for a period of time ending up to 24 months after the consummation of its initial public offering). The Company held another Extraordinary General Meeting on July 19, 2023 at which the Company’s shareholders approved the proposal to further amend the Company’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association (the “Second Extension Amendment”) to give the Company the right to extend the date by which it has to consummate a business combination from July 20, 2023 up to 6 times for an additional one (1) month each time up to January 20, 2024 (i.e., for a period of time ending up to 30 months after the consummation of its initial public offering).

On June 22, 2023, parties to the Business Combination Agreement entered into Amendment No. 1 to the Business Combination Agreement (the “Amendment”) pursuant to which the parties agreed to extend the Termination Date (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement) from June 30, 2023 to December 29, 2023.

Following the closing of the Initial Public Offering on July 20, 2021, an amount of $202,000,000 ($10.10 per Unit) from the net proceeds of the sale of the Units in the Initial Public Offering and the Private Placement Warrants was placed in a trust account (“Trust Account”) and will be invested in U.S. government securities, within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), with a maturity of 180 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 paragraphs (d)(2), (d)(3) and (d)(4) 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 and (ii) the distribution of the Trust Account, as described below.

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 one or more initial Business Combinations 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 on income earned on the Trust Account) at the time of the agreement to enter into the initial Business Combination. However, 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.

The Company will provide the holders of the outstanding Public Shares (the “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 shareholder 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. The Public Shareholders will be entitled to redeem their Public Shares for a pro rata portion of the amount then in the Trust Account (initially anticipated to be $10.10 per Public Share, plus any pro rata interest then in the Trust Account, net of taxes payable). There will be no redemption rights with respect to the Company’s warrants.

All of the 20,000,000 Public Shares contain a redemption feature which allows for the redemption of such Public Shares in connection with the Company’s liquidation, if there is a shareholder vote or tender offer in connection with the Company’s Business Combination and in connection with certain amendments to the Company’s amended and restated Memorandum and Articles of Association (the “Certificate of Incorporation”). In accordance with the rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and its guidance on redeemable equity instruments, which has been codified in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 480-10-S99, redemption provisions not solely within the control of a company require ordinary shares subject to redemption to be classified outside of permanent equity. Given that the Public Shares will be issued with other freestanding instruments (i.e., public warrants), the initial carrying value of Class A ordinary shares classified as temporary equity will be the allocated proceeds determined in accordance with ASC 470-20. The Class A ordinary shares are subject to ASC 480-10-S99 if it is probable that the equity instrument will become redeemable, the Company has the option to either (i) accrete changes in the redemption value over the period from the date of issuance (or from the date that it becomes probable that the instrument will become redeemable, if later) to the earliest redemption date of the instrument or (ii) recognize changes in the redemption value immediately as they occur and adjust the carrying amount of the instrument to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. The Company has elected to recognize the changes immediately. While redemptions cannot cause the Company’s net tangible assets to fall below $5,000,001, the Public Shares are redeemable and will be classified as such on the balance sheet until such date that a redemption event takes place.

7

Redemptions of the Company’s Public Shares may be subject to the satisfaction of conditions, including minimum cash conditions, pursuant to an agreement relating to the Company’s Business Combination. If the Company seeks shareholder approval of the Business Combination, the Company will proceed with a Business Combination if a majority of the shares voted are voted in favor of the Business Combination, or such other vote as required by law or share exchange rule. If a shareholder vote is not required by applicable law or share exchange listing requirements and the Company does not decide to hold a shareholder vote for business or other reasons, the Company will, pursuant to its Certificate of Incorporation, conduct the redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules of the 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 applicable law or share exchange listing requirements, or the Company decides to obtain shareholder approval for business or other 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. If the Company seeks shareholder approval in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor has agreed to vote its Founder Shares (as defined in Note 6) and any Public Shares purchased during or after the Initial Public Offering in favor of approving a Business Combination. Additionally, each Public Shareholder may elect to redeem their Public Shares without voting, and if they do vote, irrespective of whether they vote for or against the proposed transaction.

Subsequent to the consummation of the Initial Public Offering, the Company will adopt an insider trading policy which will require insiders to: (i) refrain from purchasing shares during certain blackout periods and when they are in possession of any material non-public information and (ii) to clear all trades with the Company’s legal counsel prior to execution. In addition, the initial shareholders have agreed to waive their redemption rights with respect to their Founder Shares and Public Shares in connection with the completion of a Business Combination.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Certificate of Incorporation 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 15% or more of the Class A Ordinary shares sold in the Initial Public Offering, without the prior consent of the Company.

The Company’s Sponsor, officers and directors (the “Initial Shareholders”) have agreed not to propose an amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation that would affect the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to redeem 100% of its Public Shares if the Company does not complete a Business Combination, unless the Company provides the Public Shareholders with the opportunity to redeem their Class A Ordinary shares in conjunction with any such amendment.

At the Extraordinary General Meeting held on January 20, 2023, the Company’s shareholders approved the proposal to amend the Company’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association (the “Extension Amendment”) to give the Company the right to extend the date by which it has to consummate a business combination from January 20, 2023 up to 6 times for an additional one (1) month each time up to July 20, 2023 (i.e., for a period of time ending up to 24 months after the consummation of its initial public offering). If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination by July 20, 2023, which is 24 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering 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 us to pay the Company’s franchise and income taxes (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 Shareholders’ rights as 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 Company’s remaining shareholders and the Company’s board of directors, dissolve and liquidate, subject in each case to the Company’s obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law.

In the event that the Sponsor or its affiliates or designees elect to extend the time to complete a business combination and deposit the applicable amount of money into trust, the Sponsor or its affiliates or designees would receive a non-interest bearing, unsecured promissory note equal to the amount of any such deposit that will not be repaid in the event that the Company is unable to close a business combination unless there are funds available outside the trust account to do so. Neither the Sponsor nor its affiliates or designees are obligated to fund the trust account to extend the time for the Company to complete an initial business combination. To the extent that some, but not all, of the parties decide to extend the period of time to consummate an initial business combination, such parties may deposit the entire amount required. The Company has extended the Business Combination date from October 20, 2022 to July 20, 2023. At the Board meeting held on October 31, 2022, the company has agreed to accept from the sponsor an unsecured debt of $1,000,000 and the sponsors have also made monthly payment of $150,000 each month for the six months ended June 30, 2023 which is deposited in the trust account.

At the Extraordinary General Meeting held on July 19, 2023, the Company’s shareholders approved the proposal to amend the Company’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association (the “Second Extension Amendment”) to give the Company the right to extend the date by which it has to consummate a business combination from July 20, 2023 up to 6 times for an additional one (1) month each time up to January 20, 2024 (i.e., for a period of time ending up to 30 months after the consummation of its initial public offering). If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination by January 20, 2024, which is 30 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering 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 us to pay the Company’s franchise and income taxes (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 Shareholders’ rights as 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 Company’s remaining shareholders and the Company’s board of directors, dissolve and liquidate, subject in each case to the Company’s obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law.

In the event that the Sponsor or its affiliates or designees elect to extend the time to complete a business combination and deposit the applicable amount of money into the trust account, the Sponsor or its affiliates or designees would receive a non-interest bearing, unsecured promissory note equal to the amount of any such deposit that will not be repaid in the event that the Company is unable to close a business combination unless there are funds available outside the trust account to do so. Neither the Sponsor nor its affiliates or designees are obligated to fund the trust account to extend the time for the Company to complete an initial business combination. To the extent that some, but not all, of the parties decide to extend the period of time to consummate an initial business combination, such parties may deposit the entire amount required. The Company has extended the Business Combination date from October 20, 2023 to November 20, 2023. On October 20, 2023, the Sponsor made a monthly payment of $60,649 which was deposited in the trust account.

The Initial Shareholders have agreed to waive their liquidation rights with respect to the Founder Shares if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period. However, if the Initial Shareholders should acquire Public Shares in or after the Initial Public Offering, 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 underwriters have agreed to waive their rights to its deferred underwriting commission (see Note 6) 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 $10.10 per shares held in the Trust Account. 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 vendor 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. This liability will not apply with respect to any claims by a third party who executed a waiver of any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies held in the Trust Account or 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 waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to monies held in the Trust Account.

At the Company’s Shareholder’s Special meeting held on January 20, 2023, the stockholders of 16,988,575 shares of Class A ordinary shares of the Company exercised their right to redeem their shares for cash at an approximate price of $10.32 per share, for an aggregate payment of approximately $175,285,891, which is withdrawn from the company’s trust account to redeem such shares.

At the Company’s extraordinary general meeting of shareholders held on July 19, 2023, the shareholders of 585,456 shares of Class A ordinary shares of the Company exercised their right to redeem their shares for cash at an approximate price of $10.92 per share, for an aggregate payment of approximately $6,395,800, which is withdrawn from the company’s trust account to redeem such shares.

Liquidity and Going Concern

As of September 30, 2023, the Company had $123,789 in its operating bank account, $26,974,295 in securities held in the Trust Account to be used for a Business Combination or to repurchase or redeem its Ordinary Shares in connection therewith and working capital deficit of $3,889,119. As of September 30, 2023, $1,646,951 of the amount on deposit in the Trust Account represented interest income, which is available to pay the Company’s tax obligations. Management expects to incur significant costs in pursuit of its acquisition plans. The Company believes it will need to raise additional funds in order to meet the expenditure required for operating its business and to consummate a business combination. If the Company is unable to complete the Business Combination because it does not have sufficient funds available, the Company will be forced to cease operations and liquidate the Trust Account. In addition, following the Business combination, if cash on hand is insufficient, the Company may need to obtain additional financing in order to meet its obligations.

In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with the authoritative guidance in Financial Accounting Standard Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-15, “Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern,” management has determined that if the Company is unable to raise additional funds to alleviate liquidity needs, obtain approval for an extension of the deadline or complete a Business Combination by October 20, 2022, then the Company will cease all operations except for the purpose of liquidating. At the extraordinary general meeting of shareholders held on July 19, 2023, the shareholders of the Company approved the Second Amendment Extension which permits the Company to further extend the time to consummate a business combination from July 20, 2023 up to 6 times for an additional one (1) month each time up to January 20, 2024 (i.e., for a period of time ending up to 30 months after the consummation of its initial public offering). It is uncertain that the Company will be able to consummate a Business Combination by the specified period. If a Business Combination is not consummated by January 20, 2024, (extended period), there will be a mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution. The liquidity condition and date for mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern one year from the date that these financial statements are issued. These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recovery of the recorded assets or the classification of the liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Risks and Uncertainties

In February 2022, the Russian Federation and Belarus commenced a military action with the country of Ukraine. As a result of this action, various nations, including the United States, have instituted economic sanctions against the Russian Federation and Belarus. As a result of this action and related economic sanctions, the Company’s ability to consummate a Business Combination, or the operations of a target business with which the Company ultimately consummates a Business Combination, may be materially and adversely affected. In addition, the Company’s ability to consummate a transaction may be dependent on the ability to raise equity and debt financing which may be impacted by these events, including as a result of increased market volatility, or decreased market liquidity in third-party financing being unavailable on terms acceptable to the Company or at all. The impact of this action and related sanctions on the world economy and the specific impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations and/or ability to consummate a Business Combination are not yet determinable.

Recently in October 2023, the military conflict between Israel and militant groups led by Hamas has also caused uncertainty in the global markets. The full impact of the war between Israel and Hamas and related global economic disruptions on our financial condition and results of operations, as well as the consummation of our Business Combination, also remains uncertain. The management will continuously evaluate the effect to the Company. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation and Liquidity

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-K and Article 8 of Regulation S-X of the SEC. Certain information or footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC for interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. In the opinion of management, the accompanying financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of

10

a normal recurring nature, which are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, operating results and cash flows for the periods presented.

Emerging Growth Company

The Company is an emerging growth company as defined in Section 102(b)(1) of the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”), which 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.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. 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 financial statements. Specifically, these estimates include the probability of a successful business combination and the implied volatility of the Public and Private Warrants.

Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. Such estimates may be subject to change as more current information becomes available and accordingly the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. 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 financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

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 did not have any cash equivalents as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

Investments Held in Trust Account

At September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, substantially all of the assets held in the Trust Account were held in mutual funds invested in U.S. Treasury securities. The Company’s investments held in the Trust Account are classified as trading securities. Trading securities are presented on the balance sheet at fair value at the end of each reporting period. Gains and losses resulting from the change in fair value of investments held in Trust Account are included in interest earned on marketable securities held in Trust Account in the accompanying statements of operations. The estimated fair values of investments held in Trust Account are determined using available market information.

Offering Costs associated with the Initial Public Offering

Offering costs, including additional underwriting fees associated with the underwriters’ exercise of the over-allotment option, consist principally of legal, accounting, underwriting fees and other costs directly related to the Initial Public Offering.

11

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, at times, may exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation coverage limit of $250,000. At September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company has not experienced losses on these accounts.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The fair value of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities reflects management’s estimate of amounts that the Company would have received in connection with the sale of the assets or paid in connection with the transfer of the liabilities in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In connection with measuring the fair value of its assets and liabilities, the Company seeks to maximize the use of observable inputs (market data obtained from independent sources) and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs (internal assumptions about how market participants would price assets and liabilities). The following fair value hierarchy is used to classify assets and liabilities based on the observable inputs and unobservable inputs used in order to value the assets and liabilities:

Level 1:Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. An active market for an asset or liability is a market in which transactions for the asset or liability occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.

Level 2:Observable inputs other than Level 1 inputs. Examples of Level 2 inputs include quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities and quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.

Level 3:Unobservable inputs based on the Company’s assessment of the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

Accounting for Warrants

The Company accounts for warrants as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the warrant’s specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in FASB ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (“ASC 480”) and ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”). The assessment considers whether the warrants are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and whether the warrants meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the warrants are indexed to the Company’s own ordinary shares, among other conditions for equity classification. This assessment, which requires the use of professional judgment, is conducted at the time of warrant issuance and as of each subsequent quarterly period end date while the warrants are outstanding.

For issued or modified warrants that meet all of the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded as a component of additional paid-in capital at the time of issuance. For issued or modified warrants that do not meet all the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded at their initial fair value on the date of issuance, and each balance sheet date thereafter.

Income Taxes

The Company complies with the accounting and reporting requirements of ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes,” which requires an asset and liability approach to financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed for differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities that will result in future taxable or deductible amounts, based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

FASB 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 were no unrecognized tax benefits as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. The Company’s management determined that the Cayman Islands is the Company’s only major tax jurisdiction. The Company is not currently aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals, or material deviation from its position. The Company is subject to tax examinations by major taxing authorities since inception. There is

12

currently no taxation imposed by the Government of the Cayman Islands. In accordance with Cayman income tax regulations, income taxes are not levied on the Company. Consequently, income taxes are not reflected in the Company’s financial statements. The Company’s management does not expect that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits will materially change over the next twelve months.

There is currently no taxation imposed by the Government of the Cayman Islands. The Company has no connection to any other taxable jurisdiction and is presently not subject to income taxes or income tax filing requirements in the Cayman Islands or the United States. Consequently, income taxes are not reflected in the Company’s financial statements.

Class A Ordinary Shares Subject to Possible Redemption

The Company accounts for its Class A Ordinary shares subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in “ASC Topic 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” Class A Ordinary shares subject to mandatory redemption (if any) is classified as a liability instrument and is measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable Class A Ordinary shares (including Class A Ordinary shares that features redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the Company’s control) is classified as temporary equity. At all other times, Class A Ordinary shares is classified as shareholders’ equity. The Company’s Class A Ordinary shares features certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, on September 30, 2023, 2,425,969 shares of Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption is presented as temporary equity, outside of the stockholders’ deficit section of the Company’s balance sheet.

The Company recognizes changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and adjusts the carrying value of redeemable ordinary shares to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Increases or decreases in the carrying amount of the redeemable ordinary shares are affected by charges against additional paid-in capital and accumulated deficit.

At September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Class A ordinary shares reflected in the balance sheet is reconciled in the following table:

Gross proceeds July 20, 2021	$	200,000,000

Net income (loss) per Ordinary Share

Net income (loss) per ordinary share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding for the period. The Company has two classes of ordinary shares, which are referred to as Class A ordinary shares and Class B ordinary shares. Income and losses are shared pro rata between the two classes of shares. This presentation contemplates a Business Combination as the most likely outcome, in which case, both classes of ordinary shares share pro rata in the income of the Company. Remeasurement associated with the redeemable Class A ordinary shares is excluded from net loss per ordinary share as the redemption value approximates fair value.

13

The calculation of diluted income per ordinary share does not consider the effect of the warrants issued in connection with the (i) Initial Public Offering, and (ii) the concurrent private placement to purchase an aggregate of 18,000,000 shares of Class A ordinary shares since the exercise of the warrants is contingent upon the occurrence of future events. The warrants are exercisable to purchase 18,000,000 Class A ordinary shares in the aggregate. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 the Company did not have any dilutive securities or other contracts that could, potentially, be exercised or converted into ordinary shares and then share in the earnings of the Company. As a result, diluted net income (loss) per ordinary share is the same as basic net income (loss) per ordinary share for the periods presented.

The following table reflects the calculation of basic and diluted net income (loss) per ordinary share (in dollars, except per share amounts):

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on our financial statements.

Note 3 — Initial Public Offering

Pursuant to the Initial Public Offering, the Company sold 20,000,000 units at a price of $10.00 per Unit. Each Unit consists of one share of Class A Ordinary shares (such Class A Ordinary shares included in the Units being offered, the “Public Shares”), and one-half of one redeemable warrant (each, a “Public Warrant”). Each Public Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share of Class A Ordinary shares at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment (see Note 8).

Note 4 — Private Placement Warrants

Concurrently with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Sponsor and underwriter purchased an aggregate of 8,000,000 Private Placement Warrants at a price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant for an aggregate purchase price of $8,000,000. Each whole Private Placement Warrant is exercisable for one whole share of Class A Ordinary shares at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment (see Note 8). The proceeds from the Private Placement Warrants at the Initial Public Offering are held in the Trust Account.

14

If the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the Private Placement Warrants will expire worthless. The fair value of the Private Placement Warrants at issuance was $9,000,000.

Note 5 — Related Party Transactions

Founder Shares

On February 9, 2021, the Sponsor purchased 5,750,000 shares (the “Founder Shares”) of the Company’s Class B Ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 (“Class B Ordinary shares”) for an aggregate price of $25,000. The Founder Shares will automatically convert into Class A Ordinary shares at the time of the Company’s Business Combination and are subject to certain transfer restrictions, as described in Note 7. Holders of Founder Shares may also elect to convert their Class B Ordinary shares into an equal number of Class A Ordinary shares, subject to adjustment, at any time. The Sponsor agreed to forfeit up to 750,000 Founder Shares to the extent that the 45-day over-allotment option was not exercised in full by the underwriters. Since the over-allotment option was not exercised, the Sponsor forfeited 750,000 Founder Shares on September 2, 2021.

The Sponsor has agreed, subject to limited exceptions, not to transfer, assign or sell any of the Founder Shares until the earliest of: (A) one year after the completion of a Business Combination and (B) subsequent to a Business Combination, (x) if the closing price of the Class A ordinary shares equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after a Business Combination, or (y) the date on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, share exchange or other similar transaction that results in all of the Public Shareholders having the right to exchange their Class A ordinary shares for cash, securities or other property.

On June 1, 2023, Director Founder Share Assignment Agreement was entered by and between the Sponsor, and certain directors, under which the Sponsor agreed to transfer 250,000 Founder Shares to such directors, upon the closing of the Company’s Business Combination. The shares granted on June 1, 2023 had an aggregate fair value using the scenario analysis, of which the stock price input into the founder shares scenario analysis was valued using a binomial lattice, of $2,425,500 ($9.70 per share). The transfer of the Founder Shares is in the scope of FASB ASC Topic 718, “Compensation-Stock Compensation” (“ASC 718”). Under ASC 718, stock-based compensation associated with equity-classified awards is measured at fair value upon the grant date. The Founders Shares were granted subject to a performance condition (i.e., the occurrence of a Business Combination). Compensation expense related to the Founders Shares is recognized only when the performance condition is probable of occurrence under the applicable accounting literature in this circumstance. The Company determined that a Business Combination is not considered probable, and, therefore, no stock-based compensation expense has been recognized. Stock-based compensation would be recognized at the date a Business Combination is considered probable (i.e., upon consummation of a Business Combination) in an amount equal to the number of Founders Shares that ultimately vest multiplied times the grant date fair value per share (unless subsequently modified).

Due to Affiliates

As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company owed the Sponsor $437,693 and $347,693, respectively towards deferred offering and other formation costs incurred as well as administration support services. This amount will be repaid as soon as practical from the operating account.

Related Party Loans

In order to finance transaction costs in connection with a 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”). If the Company completes a Business Combination, the Company may repay the Working Capital Loans out of the proceeds of the Trust Account released to the Company. Otherwise, the Working Capital Loans may be repaid only out of funds held outside the Trust Account. In the event that a Business Combination does not close, the Company may use a portion of proceeds held outside the Trust Account to repay the Working Capital Loans, but no proceeds held in the Trust Account would be used to repay the Working Capital Loans. Except for the foregoing, the terms of such Working Capital Loans, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such loans. The Working Capital Loans would either be repaid upon consummation of a Business Combination, without interest, or, at the lender’s discretion, up to $1,500,000 of such Working Capital Loans may be convertible into warrants of the post-Business Combination entity at a price of $1.00 per warrant. The warrants would be identical to the Private Placement Warrants. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under the Working Capital Loans.

Note Payable – Related Party

On October 12, 2022, the Company accepted from the sponsor a non-interest bearing unsecured debt of $1,000,000 for an extension payment. Further, in 2023, the Sponsor (or one or more of its affiliates or third-party designees) (the “Sponsor”) made monthly payments of $150,000 from January-June and $60,649 each month from July to September towards extension payment. As of September 30, 2023, the amount outstanding under the Note is $2,631,948 and the amount outstanding as of December 31, 2022 was $1,000,000. The September 30, 2023 balance includes an amount of $550,000 borrowed from the Sponsor for operating costs under the Note.

Administrative Services Fee

The Company entered into an agreement whereby, commencing on July 20, 2021, the Company will pay the Sponsor $10,000 per month for office space, administrative and support services. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023 the Company incurred $90,000 in fees for these services. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 a total of $260,000 and $170,000, respectively of administrative support services were included in the Due to affiliates balance in the accompanying balance sheets.

Advisory fees

On January 4, 2022, the Company entered into an agreement with Sett & Lucas limited (“S&L”) for certain financial advisory and investment banking services in relation to the Business Combination with a potential target. Pursuant to this agreement, the Company agreed to pay S&L a success fee earned upon successful completion of the Business Combination equal to 2% of the pre-money enterprise valuation of the potential target acquired. The company also agreed to reimburse S&L for out-of-pocket expenses. Prabhu Antony, the Chief Financial Officer of the Company, is also an Executive Director of S&L.

On April 2, 2023, the Company entered into an amendment to advisory agreement with Sett & Lucas Limited (S&L). Pursuant to such agreement, Company will pay S&L a success fee upon successful completion of the Business Combination, $1.0 million in cash and 300,000 shares of the merged entity. As of September 30, 2023, S&L has been providing services for Buy-side search and due diligence, but the payment is not due unless the transaction is consummated.

Note 6 — Commitments and Contingencies

Registration Rights

The holders of Founder Shares, Private Placement Warrants and warrants that may be issued upon conversion of working capital loans, if any, are entitled to registration rights (in the case of the Founder Shares, only after conversion of such shares of Class A Ordinary shares) pursuant to a registration rights agreement dated June 15, 2021. These holders are entitled to certain demand and “piggyback” registration rights. However, the registration rights agreement provides that the Company will not permit any registration statement filed under the Securities Act to become effective until the termination of the applicable lock-up period for the securities to be registered. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.

Underwriting Agreement

The Company granted the underwriters a 45-day option from the final prospectus relating to the Initial Public Offering to purchase up to 3,000,000 additional Units to cover over-allotments, if any, at the IPO price less the underwriting discounts and commissions. On September 3, 2021 this option expired as the underwriters did not exercise their option.

The underwriters were paid a cash underwriting discount of $0.20 per unit, or $4,000,000 in the aggregate at the closing of the Initial Public Offering. In addition, the underwriters are entitled to a deferred underwriting commissions of $0.45 per unit, or $9,000,000 in the aggregate from the closing of the Initial Public Offering. The deferred fee will become payable to the underwriters from the amounts held in the Trust Account solely in the event that the Company completes a Business Combination, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement.

On June 13, 2023, Company entered into a fees reduction agreement with Cantor Fitzgerald & Co. (“Cantor”), the underwriters. Pursuant to such agreement, in the event that the Company elects (in its sole discretion) to consummate the Business Combination with DigiAsia, Cantor agrees that it will forfeit cash payment of $4,500,000 of the aggregate $9,000,000 of deferred fee that would otherwise be payable to it pursuant to the underwriting agreement. In lieu, the Company will issue shares of the merged entity valuing $4,500,000

16

and the balance will be paid in cash. The remainder of the deferred fee shall be payable to Cantor as a non-refundable cash fee equal to 25% of the dollar amount that remains in the Trust Account in connection with the consummation of the Business Combination, with such dollar amount in the Trust Account subject to maximum capping of $4,500,000.

Advisory Fees

On June 27, 2023, the Company entered into an agreement with Laurel Hill Advisory Group, LLC (“Laurel Hill”) to assist in the solicitation of proxies for the Extraordinary General Meeting. The Company has agreed to pay Laurel Hill a fixed fee of $15,000 and will reimburse Laurel Hill for its reasonable and documented costs and expenses and indemnify Laurel Hill and its affiliates against certain claims, liabilities, losses, damages and expenses.

On January 3, 2022, the Company entered into an agreement with ARC Group for strategic and target identification advisory services, pursuant to which the Company will pay the ARC Group an initial retainer fee of $25,000 (which has been paid by the Company in January 2022), a closing retainer fee at announcement of the Business Combination in the amount of $175,000 and a success fee of $1,000,000 upon completion of Business Combination with introduced target. Limited target identification services have been performed by the ARC Group in connection with the agreement, the compensation for which has been covered by the initial retainer fee of $25,000. No amounts are owed under the agreement with the ARC Group as of September 30, 2023.

On April 28, 2022, the Company entered into an agreement with J.V.B. Financial Group, LLC (“JVB”) for financial advisor and placement agent services in connection with the Business Combination.

The Company also agreed to reimburse JVB upon consummation of the Business Combination or upon termination of this agreement for out-of-pocket expenses up to a maximum amount of $100,000. No services have been performed and no amounts are owed under the agreement with JVB as of September 30, 2023.

Note 7 — Shareholders’ Deficit

Ordinary shares

Class A Ordinary shares — The Company is authorized to issue 200,000,000 Class A Ordinary shares with a par value of $0.0001 per share. At September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there were no (excluding 2,425,969 and 20,000,000 shares subject to possible redemption at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 respectively) Class A Ordinary shares issued and outstanding.

On January 20, 2023, The Company held an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders (the “Extraordinary General Meeting”), at which shareholders properly elected to redeem an aggregate of 16,988,575 Class A Ordinary Shares at a redemption price of approximately $10.32 per share (the “Redemption”), for an aggregate redemption amount of approximately $175,285,892. Following such redemptions, approximately $31,461,507 remained in the Company’s trust account.

On July 19, 2023, The Company held an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders (the “Extraordinary General Meeting”), at which shareholders properly elected to redeem an aggregate of 585,456 Class A Ordinary Shares at a redemption price of approximately $10.92 per share (the “Redemption”), for an aggregate redemption amount of approximately $6,395,800. Following such redemptions, approximately $26,502,440 remained in the Company’s trust account.

Class B Ordinary shares — The Company is authorized to issue 20,000,000 Class B Ordinary shares with a par value of $0.0001 per share. Holders of Class B Ordinary shares are entitled to one vote for each share. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there were 5,000,000 Class B Ordinary shares issued and outstanding after giving effect to the forfeiture of 750,000 Class B Ordinary shares.

Holders of Class A Ordinary shares and holders of Class B Ordinary shares will vote together as a single class on all other matters submitted to a vote of shareholders.

The Class B Ordinary shares will automatically convert into Class A Ordinary shares at the time of a Business Combination at a ratio such that the number of Class A Ordinary shares issuable upon conversion of all Founder Shares will equal, in the aggregate, on

17

an as-converted basis, 20% of the sum of (i) the total number of Ordinary shares issued and outstanding upon completion of the Initial Public Offering, plus (ii) the total number of Class A Ordinary shares issued or deemed issued or issuable upon conversion or exercise of any equity-linked securities or rights issued or deemed issued, by the Company in connection with or in relation to the consummation of a Business Combination, excluding any Class A Ordinary shares or equity-linked securities exercisable for or convertible into Class A Ordinary shares issued, deemed issued, or to be issued, to any seller in a Business Combination and any Private Placement Warrants issued to the Sponsor, its affiliates or any member of the management team upon conversion of Working Capital Loans. In no event will the Class B Ordinary shares convert into Class A Ordinary shares at a rate of less than one-to-one.

Preferred Shares — The Company is authorized to issue 1,000,000 preference shares with such designations, voting and other rights and preferences as may be determined from time to time by the Company’s board of directors. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there were no preferred share issued or outstanding.

Note 8 — Warrants

The Company has accounted for the 18,000,000 warrants to be issued in connection with the Initial Public Offering (the 10,000,000 Public Warrants and the 8,000,000 Private Placement Warrants) in accordance with the guidance contained in ASC 815-40. Since the warrants do not meet the criteria for equity treatment under the guidance, each warrant must be recorded as a liability. Accordingly, the Company will classify each warrant as a liability at its fair value. This liability is subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet date. With each such re-measurement, the warrant liability will be adjusted to fair value, with the change in fair value recognized in the Company’s statement of operations.

The Public Warrants will become exercisable on the later of (a) 30 days after the completion of a Business Combination or (b) 12 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering. No warrants will be exercisable for cash unless the Company has an effective and current registration statement covering the ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants and a current prospectus relating to such ordinary shares. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a registration statement covering the ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the Public Warrants is not effective within a specified period following the consummation of a Business Combination, warrant holders may, until such time as there is an effective registration statement and during any period when the Company shall have failed to maintain an effective registration statement, exercise warrants on a cashless basis pursuant to the exemption provided by Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act, provided that such exemption is available. If that exemption, or another exemption, is not available, holders will not be able to exercise their warrants on a cashless basis. The Public Warrants will expire five years after the completion of a Business Combination or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.

Once the warrants become exercisable, the Company may redeem the Public Warrants:

in whole and not in part;

at a price of $0.01 per warrant;

upon not less than 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption;

if, and only if, the reported last sale price of the ordinary shares equals or exceeds $18.00 per share (as adjusted for share splits, share dividends, reorganizations and recapitalizations), for any 20 trading days within a 30 trading day period commencing at any time after the warrants become exercisable and ending on the third business day prior to the notice of redemption to warrant holders; and

if, and only if, there is a current registration statement in effect with respect to the ordinary shares underlying the warrants.

If the Company calls the Public Warrants for redemption, management will have the option to require all holders that wish to exercise the Public Warrants to do so on a “cashless basis,” as described in the warrant agreement.

The Private Warrants are identical to the Public Warrants underlying the Units being sold in the Proposed Public Offering, except that the Private Warrants and the ordinary shares issuable upon the exercise of the Private Warrants will not be transferable, assignable or salable until after the completion of a Business Combination, subject to certain limited exceptions. Additionally, the Private Warrants are exercisable for cash or on a cashless basis, at the holder’s option, and be non-redeemable so long as they are held by the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees. If the Private Warrants are held by someone other than the initial purchasers or their permitted

18

transferees, the Private Warrants will be redeemable by the Company and exercisable by such holders on the same basis as the Public Warrants. Concurrently with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Sponsor and underwriter purchased an aggregate of 8,000,000 Private Placement Warrants at a price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant for an aggregate purchase price of $8,000,000. The fair value of the Private Placement Warrants at issuance was $9,000,000. Fair value in excess of sale on the issuance of private warrants was recorded in the statement of operations.

The exercise price and number of ordinary shares issuable on exercise of the warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances including in the event of a share dividend, extraordinary dividend or our recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation. However, the warrants will not be adjusted for issuances of ordinary shares at a price below their respective exercise prices. Additionally, in no event will the Company be required to net cash settle the warrants. If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period and the Company liquidates the funds held in the Trust Account, holders of warrants will not receive any of such funds with respect to their warrants, nor will they receive any distribution from the Company’s assets held outside of the Trust Account with the respect to such warrants. Accordingly, the warrants may expire worthless.

In addition, if the Company issues additional ordinary shares or equity-linked securities for capital raising purposes in connection with the closing of a Business Combination at an issue price or effective issue price of less than $9.20 per ordinary share (with such issue price or effective issue price to be determined in good faith by the Company’s board of directors, and in the case of any such issuance to the initial shareholders or their affiliates, without taking into account any Founder Shares held by them prior to such issuance), (y) the aggregate gross proceeds from such issuances represent more than 60% of the total equity proceeds, and interest thereon, available for the funding of a Business Combination on the date of the consummation of a Business Combination (net of redemptions), and (z) the volume weighted average trading price of the Company’s ordinary shares during the 20 trading day period starting on the trading day prior to the day on which the Company consummates Business Combination (such price, the “Market Value”) is below $9.20 per share, the exercise price of the warrants will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 115% of the greater of (i) the Market Value or (ii) the price at which the Company issues the additional ordinary shares or equity-linked securities.

As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there were 10,000,000 Public Warrants and 8,000,000 Private Warrants outstanding.

Note 9 — Fair Value Measurements

The Company follows the guidance in ASC Topic 820 for its financial assets and liabilities that are re-measured and reported at fair value at each reporting period and non-financial assets and liabilities that are re-measured and reported at fair value at least annually. The fair value of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities reflects management’s estimate of amounts that the Company would have received in connection with the sale of the assets or paid in connection with the transfer of the liabilities in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In connection with measuring the fair value of its assets and liabilities, the Company seeks to maximize the use of observable inputs (market data obtained from independent sources) and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs (internal assumptions about how market participants would price assets and liabilities). The following fair value hierarchy is used to classify assets and liabilities based on the observable inputs and unobservable inputs used in order to value the assets and liabilities:

Level 1:Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. An active market for an asset or liability is a market in which transactions for the asset or liability occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.

Level 2:Observable inputs other than Level 1 inputs. Examples of Level 2 inputs include quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities and quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.

Level 3:Unobservable inputs based on our assessment of the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

The Company classifies its U.S. Treasury and equivalent securities as trading securities with ASC Topic 320, “Investments—Debt and Equity Securities.” The Company’s investments held in the Trust Account are classified as trading securities. Trading securities are presented on the balance sheet at fair value at the end of each reporting period. Gains and losses resulting from the change in fair value of investments held in Trust Account are included in interest earned on marketable securities held in Trust Account in the accompanying

19

statements of operations. The estimated fair values of investments held in Trust Account are determined using available market information.

At September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, assets held in the Trust Account were comprised of $26,974,295 and $205,927,087 invested in U.S. Treasury Securities mutual funds.

The following tables present information about the Company’s assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 and indicate the fair value hierarchy of the valuation inputs the Company utilized to determine such fair value.

Warrants

The Company has determined that warrants issued in connection with its initial public offering in July 2021 are subject to treatment as a liability. The estimated fair value of the warrant liability is determined using Level 1 and Level 3 inputs. At September 30, 2023, the Public Warrants had adequate trading volume to provide a reliable indication of value. The Public Warrants were valued at $0.03 at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 respectively.

The Company utilized a modified Black Scholes model to value the Private Warrants at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. The estimated fair value of the warrant liability is determined using Level 3 inputs. Inherent in the model are assumptions related to expected share-price volatility, expected life, risk-free interest rate and dividend yield. The Company estimates the volatility of its ordinary shares based on historical volatility 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 to remain at zero.

Transfers to/from Levels 1, 2 and 3 are recognized at the end of each reporting period. The estimated fair value of the Public Warrants transferred from a Level 3 fair value measurement to a Level 1 fair value measurement as of September 7, 2021, when the Public Warrants began trading separately. No transfers have taken place in the three months ended September 30, 2023.

The following table provides quantitative information regarding Level 3 fair value measurements on September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

On January 5, 2023, StoneBridge Acquisition Corporation (prior to the business combination “StoneBridge” and, at and after the business combination, “PubCo”) entered into a business combination agreement (as it may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Business Combination Agreement”) with StoneBridge Acquisition Pte. Ltd. (“Amalgamation Sub”), DigiAsia Bios Pte. Ltd. ( “DigiAsia”), and Prashant Gokarn (the “Management Representative”), solely in his capacity as the Management Representative. Pursuant to the terms of the Business Combination Agreement, a business combination between StoneBridge and DigiAsia will be effected through the amalgamation of Amalgamation Sub with and into DigiAsia, with DigiAsia surviving the amalgamation as a wholly owned subsidiary of PubCo.

22

Registration Rights Agreement

Substantially concurrently with the execution and delivery of the Business Combination Agreement, StoneBridge, DigiAsia and certain shareholders of DigiAsia (such shareholders, together with their permitted transferees, collectively, the “Participating DigiAsia Shareholders”) entered into a shareholder rights agreement, pursuant to which, the Participating DigiAsia Shareholders were granted certain registration rights with respect to the ordinary shares of PubCo to be issued to such shareholders in connection with the Business Combination. In particular, the Registration Rights Agreement provides for the following registration rights: (1) demand registration rights, (2) shelf registration rights, and (3) piggyback registration rights.

Amendments

On June 22, 2023, parties to the Business Combination Agreement entered into Amendment No. 1 to the Business Combination Agreement pursuant to which the parties agreed to extend the Termination Date (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement) from June 30, 2023, to December 29, 2023.

Results of Operations

We have neither engaged in any operations nor generated any operating revenues to date. Our only activities from inception through September 30, 2023 were organizational activities and those necessary to prepare for the IPO, described below, and since the IPO, the search for a prospective initial business combination. We do not expect to generate any operating revenues until after the completion of an initial business combination, at the earliest. We expect to generate non-operating income in the form of interest income from the proceeds of the IPO placed in the trust account. We expect that we will 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 in connection with searching for, and completing, a business combination.

For the three months ended September 30, 2023, we had a net loss of $48,532 majorly consisting of investment income from trust account of $366,916, interest income from checking account $1,660, and operating expenses of $417,108 (majorly consisting of legal and professional expenses, Insurance expense and General and administrative expenses).

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we had a net income of $377,882 majorly consisting of investment income from trust account of $1,646,951, interest income from checking account $2,946, and operating expenses of $1,272,015 (majorly consisting of legal and professional expenses, Insurance expense and General and administrative expenses).

For the three months ended September 30, 2022, we had a net income of $1,239,550 majorly consisting of investment income from trust account of $911,773, interest income from checking account $793, on decrease in fair value of warrants of $620,000 and operating expenses of $293,016 (majorly consisting of legal and professional expenses, Insurance expense and General and administrative expenses).

For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we had a net income of $8,631,943 majorly consisting of investment income from trust account of $1,204,892, interest income from checking account $917, on decrease in fair value of warrants of $8,192,000 and operating expenses of $765,866 (majorly consisting of legal and professional expenses, Insurance expense and General and administrative expenses).

Liquidity and Capital Resources

On July 20, 2021, we consummated our initial public offering of 20,000,000 Units at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $200,000,000. Simultaneously with the closing of the initial public offering, we consummated the private placement of an aggregate of 8,000,000 Private Placement Warrants to our Sponsor at a price of $1.00 per warrant, generating gross proceeds of $8,000,000. Following our IPO, a total of $202,000,000 was placed in the trust account. We incurred $13,577,812 in transaction costs, including $4,000,000 of underwriting fees, $9,000,000 of deferred underwriting fees and $577,812 of other offering costs in connection with the IPO and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023 cash used in operating activities was $1,112,393. Net Cash provided by investing activities was $180,599,743 and net cash used in financing activities was $181,681,691 mainly reflecting the redemption of ordinary shares.

23

For the nine months ended September 30, 2022 cash used in operating activities was $498,983, which consisted of net income of $8,631,943, interest income on investments held in the Trust Account in the amount $1,204,892, change in the fair value of the warrant liability in the amount of $8,192,000, offset by the changes in prepaid expenses in the amount $227,669, due to affiliates in the amount of $90,000 and accounts payable in the amount $51,703.

As of September 30, 2023, we had cash and marketable securities held in the trust account of $26,974,295. We intend to use substantially all of the funds held in the trust account, including any amounts representing dividend earned on the trust account to complete our business combination. To the extent that our capital share or debt is used, in whole or in part, as consideration to complete a business combination, the remaining proceeds held in the trust account will be used as working capital to finance the operations of the target business or businesses, make other acquisitions and pursue our growth strategies.

As of September 30, 2023, the Company had $123,789 in its operating bank accounts, $26,974,295 in securities held in the Trust Account to be used for a Business Combination or to repurchase or redeem its Ordinary Shares in connection therewith and working capital deficit of $3,889,119. As of September 30, 2023, $1,646,951 of the amount on deposit in the Trust Account represented dividend income. Management expects to incur significant costs in pursuit of its acquisition plans. The Company believes it will need to raise additional funds in order to meet the expenditures required for operating its business and to consummate a business combination. If the Company is unable to complete the Business Combination due to insufficient funds, the Company will be forced to cease operations and liquidate the Trust Account. In addition, following the Business combination, if cash on hand is insufficient, the Company may need to obtain additional financing in order to meet its obligations.

In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with the authoritative guidance in Financial Accounting Standard Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-15, “Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern,” management has determined that if the Company is unable to raise additional funds to alleviate liquidity needs, obtain approval for an extension of the deadline or complete a Business Combination by October 20, 2022, then the Company will cease all operations except for the purpose of liquidating. At the extraordinary general meeting of shareholders held on July 19, 2023, the shareholders of the Company approved the Second Amendment Extension which permits the Company to further extend the time to consummate a business combination from July 20, 2023 up to 6 times for an additional one (1) month each time up to January 20, 2024 (i.e., for a period of time ending up to 30 months after the consummation of its initial public offering). It is uncertain that the Company will be able to consummate a Business Combination by the specified period. If a Business Combination is not consummated by January 20, 2024, (extended period), there will be a mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution. The liquidity condition and date for mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern one year from the date that these financial statements are issued. These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recovery of the recorded assets or the classification of the liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no obligations, assets or liabilities, which would be considered off-balance sheet arrangements as of September 30, 2023. We do not participate in transactions that create relationships with entities or financial partnerships, often referred to as variable interest entities, which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements. We have not entered into any off-balance sheet financing arrangements, established any special purpose entities, guaranteed any debt or commitments of other entities, or purchased any non-financial assets.

Contractual obligations

We do not have any long-term debt, capital lease obligations, operating lease obligations or long-term liabilities.

The underwriters are entitled to a deferred fee of $0.45 per Unit, or $9,000,000 in the aggregate. The deferred fee will become payable to the underwriters 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.

On June 13, 2023, Company entered into a fees reduction agreement with Cantor Fitzgerald & Co. (“Cantor”), the underwriters. Pursuant to such agreement, in the event that the Company elects (in its sole discretion) to consummate the Business Combination with DigiAsia, Cantor agrees that it will forfeit cash payment of $4,500,000 of the aggregate $9,000,000 of deferred fee that would otherwise be payable to it pursuant to the underwriting agreement. In lieu, the Company will issue shares of the merged entity valuing $4,500,000

24

and the balance will be paid in cash. The remainder of the deferred fee shall be payable to Cantor as a non-refundable cash fee equal to 25% of the dollar amount that remains in the Trust Account in connection with the consummation of the Business Combination, with such dollar amount in the Trust Account subject to maximum capping of $4,500,000.

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 will qualify as an “emerging growth company” and under the JOBS Act will be allowed to comply with new or revised accounting pronouncements based on the effective date for private (not publicly traded) companies. We are electing 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 such, our financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with public company effective dates.

Additionally, we are in the process of evaluating the benefits of relying on the other reduced reporting requirements provided by the JOBS Act. Subject to certain conditions set forth in the JOBS Act, if, as an “emerging growth company,” we choose to rely on such exemptions we may not be required to, among other things, (i) provide an auditor’s attestation report on our system of internal control over financial reporting pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, (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 executive compensation to median employee compensation. These exemptions will apply for a period of five years following the completion of our IPO or until we are no longer an “emerging growth company,” whichever is earlier.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of 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 financial statements, and income and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Critical accounting estimates are estimates where (a) the nature of the estimate is material due to the levels of subjectivity and judgment necessary to account for highly uncertain matters or the susceptibility of such matters to change and (b) the impact of the estimate on financial condition or operating performance is material. The Company believes these to be estimates used as inputs in the valuation of the derivative warrant liability. These estimates are the probability of a successful business combination by July 20, 2023, and the implied volatility of the Public and Private Warrants.

Accounting for Warrants

The Company accounts for warrants as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the warrant’s specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (“ASC 480”) and ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”). The assessment considers whether the warrants are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and whether the warrants meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the warrants are indexed to the Company’s own ordinary shares, among other conditions for equity classification. This assessment, which requires the use of professional judgment, is conducted at the time of warrant issuance and as of each subsequent quarterly period end date while the warrants are outstanding.

For issued or modified warrants that meet all of the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded as a component of additional paid-in capital at the time of issuance. For issued or modified warrants that do not meet all the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded at their initial fair value on the date of issuance, and each balance sheet date thereafter with changes in fair value recognized in the statements of operations in the period of change.

25

Ordinary Share Subject to Possible Redemption

We account for our ordinary share subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in ASC Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” Ordinary share subject to mandatory redemption is classified as a liability instrument and is measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable ordinary share (including ordinary share that features redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within our control) is classified as temporary equity. At all other times, ordinary share is classified as shareholders’ equity. Our ordinary share features certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of our control and subject to occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, ordinary share subject to possible redemption is presented as temporary equity, outside of the shareholders’ equity section of our balance sheets. The Company recognizes changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and adjusts the carrying value of redeemable ordinary share to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Increases or decreases in the carrying amount of redeemable ordinary share are affected by charges against additional paid in capital and accumulated deficit.

Net income (loss) per Ordinary Share

We comply with accounting and disclosure requirements of FASB ASC Topic 260, “Earnings Per Share. We have two classes of shares, which are referred to as Class A ordinary shares and Class B ordinary shares. Net income per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of ordinary share outstanding during the period, excluding ordinary share subject to forfeiture by the Sponsor. We did not consider the effect of the warrants issued in connection with the initial public offering and the concurrent private placement to purchase an aggregate of 18,000,000 shares of Class A ordinary shares in the calculation of diluted income per ordinary share because their exercise is contingent upon future events. As a result, diluted net income per ordinary share is the same as basic net income per ordinary share.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Management does not believe that any other recently issued accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on our financial statements.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

This item is not appliable as we are a smaller reporting company.

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 Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

26

As required by Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2023. Based upon their evaluations, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) were not effective, due to material weaknesses related to accounting and valuation for complex financial instruments in addition to the material weakness in internal controls over financial reporting related to incomplete accounting for accruals. In light of these material weaknesses, we performed additional analysis as deemed necessary to ensure that our financial statements were prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Accordingly, management believes that the financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q present fairly in all material respects our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the period presented.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no additional changes to our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) that occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2023 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

We may disclose changes to such factors or disclose additional factors from time to time in our future filings with the SEC.

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS.

The registration statement for the Company’s initial public offering (“Initial Public Offering”) was declared effective on July 15, 2021. On July 20, 2021, the Company consummated the Initial Public Offering of 20,000,000 units (“Units”) with respect to the Class A Ordinary shares included in the Units being offered (the “Public Shares”) at $10.00 per Unit generating gross proceeds of $200,000,000.

Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the sale of 8,000,000 warrants (“Private Placement Warrants”) at a price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant in a private placement to the Company’s sponsor, Stonebridge Acquisition Sponsor LLC, and underwriters generating gross proceeds of $8,000,000.

Offering costs for the Initial Public Offering amounted to $13,577,812, consisting of $4,000,000 of underwriting fees, $9,000,000 of deferred underwriting fees payable (which are held in the Trust Account (defined below)) and $577,812 of other costs. As described in Note 6, the $9,000,000 of deferred underwriting fee payable is contingent upon the consummation of a Business Combination by October 20, 2022 (or April 20, 2023, as applicable), subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement.

Following the closing of the Initial Public Offering on July 20, 2021, an amount of $202,000,000 ($10.10 per Unit) from the net proceeds of the sale of the Units in the Initial Public Offering and the Private Placement Warrants was placed in a trust account (“Trust Account”) and will be invested in U.S. government securities, within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (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 paragraphs (d)(2), (d)(3) and (d)(4) 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 and (ii) the distribution of the Trust Account.

We paid a total of $4,000,000 underwriting discounts and commissions and $577,812 for other offering costs and expenses related to the Initial Public Offering. In addition, the underwriters agreed to defer $9,000,000 in underwriting discounts and commissions.

For a description of the use of the proceeds generated in our Initial Public Offering, see Part I, Item 2 of this Quarterly Report.

Description of Organization and Business Operations

Note 1 — Description of Organization and Business Operations

StoneBridge Acquisition Corporation (the “Company”) was incorporated in the Cayman Islands on February 2, 2021. The Company was formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar Business Combination with one or more businesses (the “Business Combination”).

The Company is not limited to a particular industry or geographic region for purposes of consummating a 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.

On January 12, 2023, The Company filed a Form 8-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission to report that on January 5, 2023, the Company entered into a Business Combination Agreement with DigiAsia Bios Pte. Ltd., a Singapore private company limited by shares (“DigiAsia”), and the other parties thereto (as it may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Business Combination Agreement”). Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Business Combination Agreement, and in accordance with applicable law, StoneBridge Acquisition Pte. Ltd., a Singapore private company limited by shares and a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, will amalgamate with DigiAsia, with DigiAsia surviving the amalgamation as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Business Combination”).

In connection with the execution of the Business Combination Agreement, StoneBridge Acquisition Sponsor LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Sponsor”) entered into a support agreement with DigiAsia (the “Sponsor Support Agreement”) pursuant to which the Sponsor has agreed to vote all StoneBridge Ordinary Shares beneficially owned by it in favor of the Amalgamation. Pursuant to the Sponsor Support Agreement, the Sponsor has also agreed to certain share lock-up provisions (the “Sponsor Lock-up Provisions”).

In addition, in connection with the execution of the Business Combination Agreement, certain shareholders of DigiAsia entered into a support agreement (the “DigiAsia Shareholder Support Agreement”) with StoneBridge and DigiAsia pursuant to which such shareholders agreed to vote all shares of DigiAsia beneficially owned by them in favor of the Amalgamation.

In connection with the Transactions, StoneBridge, DigiAsia and certain shareholders of DigiAsia who will receive PubCo Ordinary Shares pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, have entered into a registration rights agreement (“Registration Rights Agreement”), to become effective upon the Closing.

Prior to the consummation of the Transactions, certain DigiAsia shareholders, including all executive officers, heads of business lines and directors of DigiAsia as well as any other existing shareholder of DigiAsia holding greater than 1% of its share capital, will enter into a lock-up agreement (the “DigiAsia Shareholder Lock-up Agreement”) with DigiAsia and StoneBridge. Under the terms of the DigiAsia Shareholder Lock-up Agreement, and under the terms of the Sponsor Lock-up Provisions contained in the Sponsor Support Agreement, such certain DigiAsia shareholders and the Sponsor, each agree, subject to certain customary exceptions, not to:

(i) sell, offer to sell, contract or agree to sell, assign, lend, offer, encumber, donate, hypothecate, pledge, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase or otherwise transfer, dispose of or agree to transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, or establish or increase a put equivalent position or liquidate or decrease a call equivalent position (A) any PubCo Ordinary Shares, or (B) any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for PubCo Ordinary Shares, in each case, held by it immediately after the Effective Time (the “Lock-up Shares”)

(ii) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of any of the Lock-up Shares, whether any such transaction is to be settled by delivery of such securities, in cash or otherwise or; or

(iii) publicly announce any intention to effect any transaction specified in clause (i) or (ii) above until the earlier of (A) (1) with respect to the DigiAsia shareholder’s Lock-Up Shares and 250,000 of the Sponsor’s Lock-Up Shares, nine months after the Closing Date, or (2) in the case of the remainder of the Sponsor’s Lock-Up Shares, six months after the Closing Date, and (B) subsequent to the Amalgamation, (1) if the last sale price of PubCo Ordinary Shares equals or exceeds $12.00 per PubCo Ordinary Share (as adjusted for

share splits, share consolidations, share capitalizations, rights issuances, subdivisions, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after the Amalgamation, or (2) the date on which PubCo completes a liquidation, merger, share exchange, reorganization or other similar transaction that results in all of PubCo’s shareholders having the right to exchange their PubCo Ordinary Shares for cash, securities or other property.

In connection with the Closing, StoneBridge, the Sponsor and Alexander Rusli (the “Founder”) will enter into a Director Nomination Agreement (the “Director Nomination Agreement”) pursuant to which the parties agreed that, among other things, at every meeting of PubCo Board of Directors (the “PubCo Board”), or a committee thereof, or action by written consent, at or by which directors of PubCo are appointed by PubCo Board or are nominated to stand for election and elected by shareholders of PubCo, the Sponsor shall have the right to appoint or nominate for election to PubCo Board, as applicable, two individuals (each a “Nominee,” and together, the “Nominees”), to serve as directors of PubCo; provided, that such Nominees shall be reasonably acceptable to the Founder. Further, PubCo shall take, and the Founder shall use his best efforts to cause PubCo to take, all necessary actions within its control, such that, as of the Effective Time, the Nominees shall either be elected by PubCo’s shareholders at the meeting held to approve the Transactions or appointed to PubCo Board.

On June 26, 2023, in connection with the proposed transaction, the Company filed a Registration Statement on Form F-4 with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, which included a proxy statement/prospectus and certain other related documents, which will be distributed to shareholders of the Company’s common stock in connection with the Company’s extraordinary general meeting of shareholders with respect to the proposed business combination transaction and other matters as described in the definitive proxy statement, as well as a prospectus relating to the offer and sale of the securities of DigiAsia to be issued in the proposed business combination transaction. The definitive proxy statement/prospectus will be sent to all of the Company’s shareholders as of a record date to be established for voting on the transaction. Concurrently with the execution and delivery of the Business Combination Agreement, the Sponsor, DigiAsia and additional holders of founder shares entered into the Sponsor Support Agreement, pursuant to which, among other things, the Sponsor agreed to (a) support and vote their founder shares in favor of the Business Combination Agreement and the other transaction agreements to which the Company is or will be a party and the Business Combination; (b) subject their founder shares to certain transfer restrictions; and (c) after the Effective Time, for as long as the Sponsor (or a permitted transferee of Sponsor) holds Warrants, any exercise by Sponsor (or a Permitted Transferee of the Sponsor) of such Warrants will only be done on a cash (and not a cashless) basis. Concurrently with the execution and delivery of the Business Combination Agreement, DigiAsia, the Sponsor and the other parties thereto entered into the Registration Rights Agreement, pursuant to which DigiAsia agreed, among other things, to file a registration statement to register the resale of certain securities of DigiAsia held by the Holders and to provide the parties thereto customary demand, shelf and piggy-back rights on secondary offerings, subject to customary cut-back provisions and coordinated offerings.

As of September 30, 2023, the Company had not commenced any operations. All activity through September 30, 2023, relates to the Company’s formation and initial public offering (the “Initial Public Offering”), which is described below, and, since the 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 will generate non-operating income in the form of interest income earned on investments from the proceeds derived from the Initial Public Offering. The registration statement for the Company’s Initial Public Offering was declared effective on July 15, 2021. On July 20, 2021, the Company consummated the Initial Public Offering of 20,000,000 units (the “Units”) with respect to the Class A ordinary shares (the “Class A Ordinary Shares”) included in the Units being offered (the “Public Shares”) at $10.00 per Unit generating gross proceeds of $200,000,000, which is discussed in Note 3.

Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the sale of 8,000,000 warrants (“Private Placement Warrants”) at a price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant in a private placement to the Company’s sponsor, StoneBridge Acquisition Sponsor LLC and underwriters generating gross proceeds of $8,000,000, which is described in Note 4.

Offering costs for the Initial Public Offering amounted to $13,577,812, consisting of $4,000,000 of underwriting fees, $9,000,000 of deferred underwriting fees payable (which are held in the Trust Account (defined below)) and $577,812 of other costs. The Company immediately expensed $757,003 of offering costs in connection with the Warrants that were classified as liabilities. As described in Note 6, the $9,000,000 of deferred underwriting fee payable is contingent upon the consummation of a Business Combination by October 20, 2022, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement. On September 30, 2022, the Company extended the time for a Business Combination for a further period of three months i.e., from October 20, 2022 to January 20, 2023. At the Extraordinary General Meeting held on January 20, 2023, the Company’s shareholders approved the proposal to amend the Company’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association (the “Extension Amendment”) to give the Company the right to extend the date by which it has to consummate a business combination from January 20, 2023 up to 6 times for an additional one (1) month each time up to July

20, 2023 (i.e., for a period of time ending up to 24 months after the consummation of its initial public offering). The Company held another Extraordinary General Meeting on July 19, 2023 at which the Company’s shareholders approved the proposal to further amend the Company’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association (the “Second Extension Amendment”) to give the Company the right to extend the date by which it has to consummate a business combination from July 20, 2023 up to 6 times for an additional one (1) month each time up to January 20, 2024 (i.e., for a period of time ending up to 30 months after the consummation of its initial public offering).

On June 22, 2023, parties to the Business Combination Agreement entered into Amendment No. 1 to the Business Combination Agreement (the “Amendment”) pursuant to which the parties agreed to extend the Termination Date (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement) from June 30, 2023 to December 29, 2023.

Following the closing of the Initial Public Offering on July 20, 2021, an amount of $202,000,000 ($10.10 per Unit) from the net proceeds of the sale of the Units in the Initial Public Offering and the Private Placement Warrants was placed in a trust account (“Trust Account”) and will be invested in U.S. government securities, within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), with a maturity of 180 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 paragraphs (d)(2), (d)(3) and (d)(4) 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 and (ii) the distribution of the Trust Account, as described below.

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 one or more initial Business Combinations 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 on income earned on the Trust Account) at the time of the agreement to enter into the initial Business Combination. However, 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.

The Company will provide the holders of the outstanding Public Shares (the “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 shareholder 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. The Public Shareholders will be entitled to redeem their Public Shares for a pro rata portion of the amount then in the Trust Account (initially anticipated to be $10.10 per Public Share, plus any pro rata interest then in the Trust Account, net of taxes payable). There will be no redemption rights with respect to the Company’s warrants.

All of the 20,000,000 Public Shares contain a redemption feature which allows for the redemption of such Public Shares in connection with the Company’s liquidation, if there is a shareholder vote or tender offer in connection with the Company’s Business Combination and in connection with certain amendments to the Company’s amended and restated Memorandum and Articles of Association (the “Certificate of Incorporation”). In accordance with the rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and its guidance on redeemable equity instruments, which has been codified in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 480-10-S99, redemption provisions not solely within the control of a company require ordinary shares subject to redemption to be classified outside of permanent equity. Given that the Public Shares will be issued with other freestanding instruments (i.e., public warrants), the initial carrying value of Class A ordinary shares classified as temporary equity will be the allocated proceeds determined in accordance with ASC 470-20. The Class A ordinary shares are subject to ASC 480-10-S99 if it is probable that the equity instrument will become redeemable, the Company has the option to either (i) accrete changes in the redemption value over the period from the date of issuance (or from the date that it becomes probable that the instrument will become redeemable, if later) to the earliest redemption date of the instrument or (ii) recognize changes in the redemption value immediately as they occur and adjust the carrying amount of the instrument to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. The Company has elected to recognize the changes immediately. While redemptions cannot cause the Company’s net tangible assets to fall below $5,000,001, the Public Shares are redeemable and will be classified as such on the balance sheet until such date that a redemption event takes place.

Redemptions of the Company’s Public Shares may be subject to the satisfaction of conditions, including minimum cash conditions, pursuant to an agreement relating to the Company’s Business Combination. If the Company seeks shareholder approval of the Business Combination, the Company will proceed with a Business Combination if a majority of the shares voted are voted in favor of the Business Combination, or such other vote as required by law or share exchange rule. If a shareholder vote is not required by applicable law or share exchange listing requirements and the Company does not decide to hold a shareholder vote for business or other reasons, the Company will, pursuant to its Certificate of Incorporation, conduct the redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules of the 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 applicable law or share exchange listing requirements, or the Company decides to obtain shareholder approval for business or other 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. If the Company seeks shareholder approval in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor has agreed to vote its Founder Shares (as defined in Note 6) and any Public Shares purchased during or after the Initial Public Offering in favor of approving a Business Combination. Additionally, each Public Shareholder may elect to redeem their Public Shares without voting, and if they do vote, irrespective of whether they vote for or against the proposed transaction.

Subsequent to the consummation of the Initial Public Offering, the Company will adopt an insider trading policy which will require insiders to: (i) refrain from purchasing shares during certain blackout periods and when they are in possession of any material non-public information and (ii) to clear all trades with the Company’s legal counsel prior to execution. In addition, the initial shareholders have agreed to waive their redemption rights with respect to their Founder Shares and Public Shares in connection with the completion of a Business Combination.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Certificate of Incorporation 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 15% or more of the Class A Ordinary shares sold in the Initial Public Offering, without the prior consent of the Company.

The Company’s Sponsor, officers and directors (the “Initial Shareholders”) have agreed not to propose an amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation that would affect the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to redeem 100% of its Public Shares if the Company does not complete a Business Combination, unless the Company provides the Public Shareholders with the opportunity to redeem their Class A Ordinary shares in conjunction with any such amendment.

At the Extraordinary General Meeting held on January 20, 2023, the Company’s shareholders approved the proposal to amend the Company’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association (the “Extension Amendment”) to give the Company the right to extend the date by which it has to consummate a business combination from January 20, 2023 up to 6 times for an additional one (1) month each time up to July 20, 2023 (i.e., for a period of time ending up to 24 months after the consummation of its initial public offering). If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination by July 20, 2023, which is 24 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering 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 us to pay the Company’s franchise and income taxes (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 Shareholders’ rights as 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 Company’s remaining shareholders and the Company’s board of directors, dissolve and liquidate, subject in each case to the Company’s obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law.

In the event that the Sponsor or its affiliates or designees elect to extend the time to complete a business combination and deposit the applicable amount of money into trust, the Sponsor or its affiliates or designees would receive a non-interest bearing, unsecured promissory note equal to the amount of any such deposit that will not be repaid in the event that the Company is unable to close a business combination unless there are funds available outside the trust account to do so. Neither the Sponsor nor its affiliates or designees are obligated to fund the trust account to extend the time for the Company to complete an initial business combination. To the extent that some, but not all, of the parties decide to extend the period of time to consummate an initial business combination, such parties may deposit the entire amount required. The Company has extended the Business Combination date from October 20, 2022 to July 20, 2023. At the Board meeting held on October 31, 2022, the company has agreed to accept from the sponsor an unsecured debt of $1,000,000 and the sponsors have also made monthly payment of $150,000 each month for the six months ended June 30, 2023 which is deposited in the trust account.

At the Extraordinary General Meeting held on July 19, 2023, the Company’s shareholders approved the proposal to amend the Company’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association (the “Second Extension Amendment”) to give the Company the right to extend the date by which it has to consummate a business combination from July 20, 2023 up to 6 times for an additional one (1) month each time up to January 20, 2024 (i.e., for a period of time ending up to 30 months after the consummation of its initial public offering). If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination by January 20, 2024, which is 30 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering 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 us to pay the Company’s franchise and income taxes (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 Shareholders’ rights as 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 Company’s remaining shareholders and the Company’s board of directors, dissolve and liquidate, subject in each case to the Company’s obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law.

In the event that the Sponsor or its affiliates or designees elect to extend the time to complete a business combination and deposit the applicable amount of money into the trust account, the Sponsor or its affiliates or designees would receive a non-interest bearing, unsecured promissory note equal to the amount of any such deposit that will not be repaid in the event that the Company is unable to close a business combination unless there are funds available outside the trust account to do so. Neither the Sponsor nor its affiliates or designees are obligated to fund the trust account to extend the time for the Company to complete an initial business combination. To the extent that some, but not all, of the parties decide to extend the period of time to consummate an initial business combination, such parties may deposit the entire amount required. The Company has extended the Business Combination date from October 20, 2023 to November 20, 2023. On October 20, 2023, the Sponsor made a monthly payment of $60,649 which was deposited in the trust account.

The Initial Shareholders have agreed to waive their liquidation rights with respect to the Founder Shares if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period. However, if the Initial Shareholders should acquire Public Shares in or after the Initial Public Offering, 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 underwriters have agreed to waive their rights to its deferred underwriting commission (see Note 6) 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 $10.10 per shares held in the Trust Account. 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 vendor 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. This liability will not apply with respect to any claims by a third party who executed a waiver of any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies held in the Trust Account or 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 waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to monies held in the Trust Account.

At the Company’s Shareholder’s Special meeting held on January 20, 2023, the stockholders of 16,988,575 shares of Class A ordinary shares of the Company exercised their right to redeem their shares for cash at an approximate price of $10.32 per share, for an aggregate payment of approximately $175,285,891, which is withdrawn from the company’s trust account to redeem such shares.

At the Company’s extraordinary general meeting of shareholders held on July 19, 2023, the shareholders of 585,456 shares of Class A ordinary shares of the Company exercised their right to redeem their shares for cash at an approximate price of $10.92 per share, for an aggregate payment of approximately $6,395,800, which is withdrawn from the company’s trust account to redeem such shares.

Liquidity and Going Concern

As of September 30, 2023, the Company had $123,789 in its operating bank account, $26,974,295 in securities held in the Trust Account to be used for a Business Combination or to repurchase or redeem its Ordinary Shares in connection therewith and working capital deficit of $3,889,119. As of September 30, 2023, $1,646,951 of the amount on deposit in the Trust Account represented interest income, which is available to pay the Company’s tax obligations. Management expects to incur significant costs in pursuit of its acquisition plans. The Company believes it will need to raise additional funds in order to meet the expenditure required for operating its business and to consummate a business combination. If the Company is unable to complete the Business Combination because it does not have sufficient funds available, the Company will be forced to cease operations and liquidate the Trust Account. In addition, following the Business combination, if cash on hand is insufficient, the Company may need to obtain additional financing in order to meet its obligations.

In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with the authoritative guidance in Financial Accounting Standard Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-15, “Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern,” management has determined that if the Company is unable to raise additional funds to alleviate liquidity needs, obtain approval for an extension of the deadline or complete a Business Combination by October 20, 2022, then the Company will cease all operations except for the purpose of liquidating. At the extraordinary general meeting of shareholders held on July 19, 2023, the shareholders of the Company approved the Second Amendment Extension which permits the Company to further extend the time to consummate a business combination from July 20, 2023 up to 6 times for an additional one (1) month each time up to January 20, 2024 (i.e., for a period of time ending up to 30 months after the consummation of its initial public offering). It is uncertain that the Company will be able to consummate a Business Combination by the specified period. If a Business Combination is not consummated by January 20, 2024, (extended period), there will be a mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution. The liquidity condition and date for mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern one year from the date that these financial statements are issued. These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recovery of the recorded assets or the classification of the liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Risks and Uncertainties

In February 2022, the Russian Federation and Belarus commenced a military action with the country of Ukraine. As a result of this action, various nations, including the United States, have instituted economic sanctions against the Russian Federation and Belarus. As a result of this action and related economic sanctions, the Company’s ability to consummate a Business Combination, or the operations of a target business with which the Company ultimately consummates a Business Combination, may be materially and adversely affected. In addition, the Company’s ability to consummate a transaction may be dependent on the ability to raise equity and debt financing which may be impacted by these events, including as a result of increased market volatility, or decreased market liquidity in third-party financing being unavailable on terms acceptable to the Company or at all. The impact of this action and related sanctions on the world economy and the specific impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations and/or ability to consummate a Business Combination are not yet determinable.

Recently in October 2023, the military conflict between Israel and militant groups led by Hamas has also caused uncertainty in the global markets. The full impact of the war between Israel and Hamas and related global economic disruptions on our financial condition and results of operations, as well as the consummation of our Business Combination, also remains uncertain. The management will continuously evaluate the effect to the Company. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation and Liquidity

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-K and Article 8 of Regulation S-X of the SEC. Certain information or footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC for interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. In the opinion of management, the accompanying financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of

a normal recurring nature, which are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, operating results and cash flows for the periods presented.

Emerging Growth Company

The Company is an emerging growth company as defined in Section 102(b)(1) of the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”), which 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.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. 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 financial statements. Specifically, these estimates include the probability of a successful business combination and the implied volatility of the Public and Private Warrants.

Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. Such estimates may be subject to change as more current information becomes available and accordingly the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. 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 financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

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 did not have any cash equivalents as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

Investments Held in Trust Account

At September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, substantially all of the assets held in the Trust Account were held in mutual funds invested in U.S. Treasury securities. The Company’s investments held in the Trust Account are classified as trading securities. Trading securities are presented on the balance sheet at fair value at the end of each reporting period. Gains and losses resulting from the change in fair value of investments held in Trust Account are included in interest earned on marketable securities held in Trust Account in the accompanying statements of operations. The estimated fair values of investments held in Trust Account are determined using available market information.

Offering Costs associated with the Initial Public Offering

Offering costs, including additional underwriting fees associated with the underwriters’ exercise of the over-allotment option, consist principally of legal, accounting, underwriting fees and other costs directly related to the Initial Public Offering.

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, at times, may exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation coverage limit of $250,000. At September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company has not experienced losses on these accounts.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The fair value of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities reflects management’s estimate of amounts that the Company would have received in connection with the sale of the assets or paid in connection with the transfer of the liabilities in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In connection with measuring the fair value of its assets and liabilities, the Company seeks to maximize the use of observable inputs (market data obtained from independent sources) and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs (internal assumptions about how market participants would price assets and liabilities). The following fair value hierarchy is used to classify assets and liabilities based on the observable inputs and unobservable inputs used in order to value the assets and liabilities:

Level 1:Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. An active market for an asset or liability is a market in which transactions for the asset or liability occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.

Level 2:Observable inputs other than Level 1 inputs. Examples of Level 2 inputs include quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities and quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.

Level 3:Unobservable inputs based on the Company’s assessment of the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

Accounting for Warrants

The Company accounts for warrants as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the warrant’s specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in FASB ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (“ASC 480”) and ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”). The assessment considers whether the warrants are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and whether the warrants meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the warrants are indexed to the Company’s own ordinary shares, among other conditions for equity classification. This assessment, which requires the use of professional judgment, is conducted at the time of warrant issuance and as of each subsequent quarterly period end date while the warrants are outstanding.

For issued or modified warrants that meet all of the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded as a component of additional paid-in capital at the time of issuance. For issued or modified warrants that do not meet all the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded at their initial fair value on the date of issuance, and each balance sheet date thereafter.

Income Taxes

The Company complies with the accounting and reporting requirements of ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes,” which requires an asset and liability approach to financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed for differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities that will result in future taxable or deductible amounts, based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

FASB 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 were no unrecognized tax benefits as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. The Company’s management determined that the Cayman Islands is the Company’s only major tax jurisdiction. The Company is not currently aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals, or material deviation from its position. The Company is subject to tax examinations by major taxing authorities since inception. There is

currently no taxation imposed by the Government of the Cayman Islands. In accordance with Cayman income tax regulations, income taxes are not levied on the Company. Consequently, income taxes are not reflected in the Company’s financial statements. The Company’s management does not expect that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits will materially change over the next twelve months.

There is currently no taxation imposed by the Government of the Cayman Islands. The Company has no connection to any other taxable jurisdiction and is presently not subject to income taxes or income tax filing requirements in the Cayman Islands or the United States. Consequently, income taxes are not reflected in the Company’s financial statements.

Class A Ordinary Shares Subject to Possible Redemption

The Company accounts for its Class A Ordinary shares subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in “ASC Topic 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” Class A Ordinary shares subject to mandatory redemption (if any) is classified as a liability instrument and is measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable Class A Ordinary shares (including Class A Ordinary shares that features redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the Company’s control) is classified as temporary equity. At all other times, Class A Ordinary shares is classified as shareholders’ equity. The Company’s Class A Ordinary shares features certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, on September 30, 2023, 2,425,969 shares of Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption is presented as temporary equity, outside of the stockholders’ deficit section of the Company’s balance sheet.

The Company recognizes changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and adjusts the carrying value of redeemable ordinary shares to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Increases or decreases in the carrying amount of the redeemable ordinary shares are affected by charges against additional paid-in capital and accumulated deficit.

At September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Class A ordinary shares reflected in the balance sheet is reconciled in the following table:

Gross proceeds July 20, 2021	$	200,000,000

Net income (loss) per Ordinary Share

Net income (loss) per ordinary share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding for the period. The Company has two classes of ordinary shares, which are referred to as Class A ordinary shares and Class B ordinary shares. Income and losses are shared pro rata between the two classes of shares. This presentation contemplates a Business Combination as the most likely outcome, in which case, both classes of ordinary shares share pro rata in the income of the Company. Remeasurement associated with the redeemable Class A ordinary shares is excluded from net loss per ordinary share as the redemption value approximates fair value.

The calculation of diluted income per ordinary share does not consider the effect of the warrants issued in connection with the (i) Initial Public Offering, and (ii) the concurrent private placement to purchase an aggregate of 18,000,000 shares of Class A ordinary shares since the exercise of the warrants is contingent upon the occurrence of future events. The warrants are exercisable to purchase 18,000,000 Class A ordinary shares in the aggregate. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 the Company did not have any dilutive securities or other contracts that could, potentially, be exercised or converted into ordinary shares and then share in the earnings of the Company. As a result, diluted net income (loss) per ordinary share is the same as basic net income (loss) per ordinary share for the periods presented.

The following table reflects the calculation of basic and diluted net income (loss) per ordinary share (in dollars, except per share amounts):

Founder Shares

On February 9, 2021, the Sponsor purchased 5,750,000 shares (the “Founder Shares”) of the Company’s Class B Ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 (“Class B Ordinary shares”) for an aggregate price of $25,000. The Founder Shares will automatically convert into Class A Ordinary shares at the time of the Company’s Business Combination and are subject to certain transfer restrictions, as described in Note 7. Holders of Founder Shares may also elect to convert their Class B Ordinary shares into an equal number of Class A Ordinary shares, subject to adjustment, at any time. The Sponsor agreed to forfeit up to 750,000 Founder Shares to the extent that the 45-day over-allotment option was not exercised in full by the underwriters. Since the over-allotment option was not exercised, the Sponsor forfeited 750,000 Founder Shares on September 2, 2021.

The Sponsor has agreed, subject to limited exceptions, not to transfer, assign or sell any of the Founder Shares until the earliest of: (A) one year after the completion of a Business Combination and (B) subsequent to a Business Combination, (x) if the closing price of the Class A ordinary shares equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after a Business Combination, or (y) the date on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, share exchange or other similar transaction that results in all of the Public Shareholders having the right to exchange their Class A ordinary shares for cash, securities or other property.

On June 1, 2023, Director Founder Share Assignment Agreement was entered by and between the Sponsor, and certain directors, under which the Sponsor agreed to transfer 250,000 Founder Shares to such directors, upon the closing of the Company’s Business Combination. The shares granted on June 1, 2023 had an aggregate fair value using the scenario analysis, of which the stock price input into the founder shares scenario analysis was valued using a binomial lattice, of $2,425,500 ($9.70 per share). The transfer of the Founder Shares is in the scope of FASB ASC Topic 718, “Compensation-Stock Compensation” (“ASC 718”). Under ASC 718, stock-based compensation associated with equity-classified awards is measured at fair value upon the grant date. The Founders Shares were granted subject to a performance condition (i.e., the occurrence of a Business Combination). Compensation expense related to the Founders Shares is recognized only when the performance condition is probable of occurrence under the applicable accounting literature in this circumstance. The Company determined that a Business Combination is not considered probable, and, therefore, no stock-based compensation expense has been recognized. Stock-based compensation would be recognized at the date a Business Combination is considered probable (i.e., upon consummation of a Business Combination) in an amount equal to the number of Founders Shares that ultimately vest multiplied times the grant date fair value per share (unless subsequently modified).

Due to Affiliates

As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company owed the Sponsor $437,693 and $347,693, respectively towards deferred offering and other formation costs incurred as well as administration support services. This amount will be repaid as soon as practical from the operating account.

Related Party Loans

In order to finance transaction costs in connection with a 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”). If the Company completes a Business Combination, the Company may repay the Working Capital Loans out of the proceeds of the Trust Account released to the Company. Otherwise, the Working Capital Loans may be repaid only out of funds held outside the Trust Account. In the event that a Business Combination does not close, the Company may use a portion of proceeds held outside the Trust Account to repay the Working Capital Loans, but no proceeds held in the Trust Account would be used to repay the Working Capital Loans. Except for the foregoing, the terms of such Working Capital Loans, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such loans. The Working Capital Loans would either be repaid upon consummation of a Business Combination, without interest, or, at the lender’s discretion, up to $1,500,000 of such Working Capital Loans may be convertible into warrants of the post-Business Combination entity at a price of $1.00 per warrant. The warrants would be identical to the Private Placement Warrants. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under the Working Capital Loans.

Note Payable – Related Party

On October 12, 2022, the Company accepted from the sponsor a non-interest bearing unsecured debt of $1,000,000 for an extension payment. Further, in 2023, the Sponsor (or one or more of its affiliates or third-party designees) (the “Sponsor”) made monthly payments of $150,000 from January-June and $60,649 each month from July to September towards extension payment. As of September 30, 2023, the amount outstanding under the Note is $2,631,948 and the amount outstanding as of December 31, 2022 was $1,000,000. The September 30, 2023 balance includes an amount of $550,000 borrowed from the Sponsor for operating costs under the Note.

Administrative Services Fee

The Company entered into an agreement whereby, commencing on July 20, 2021, the Company will pay the Sponsor $10,000 per month for office space, administrative and support services. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023 the Company incurred $90,000 in fees for these services. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 a total of $260,000 and $170,000, respectively of administrative support services were included in the Due to affiliates balance in the accompanying balance sheets.

Advisory fees

On January 4, 2022, the Company entered into an agreement with Sett & Lucas limited (“S&L”) for certain financial advisory and investment banking services in relation to the Business Combination with a potential target. Pursuant to this agreement, the Company agreed to pay S&L a success fee earned upon successful completion of the Business Combination equal to 2% of the pre-money enterprise valuation of the potential target acquired. The company also agreed to reimburse S&L for out-of-pocket expenses. Prabhu Antony, the Chief Financial Officer of the Company, is also an Executive Director of S&L.

On April 2, 2023, the Company entered into an amendment to advisory agreement with Sett & Lucas Limited (S&L). Pursuant to such agreement, Company will pay S&L a success fee upon successful completion of the Business Combination, $1.0 million in cash and 300,000 shares of the merged entity. As of September 30, 2023, S&L has been providing services for Buy-side search and due diligence, but the payment is not due unless the transaction is consummated.

In lieu, the Company will issue shares of the merged entity valuing $4,500,000

and the balance will be paid in cash. The remainder of the deferred fee shall be payable to Cantor as a non-refundable cash fee equal to 25% of the dollar amount that remains in the Trust Account in connection with the consummation of the Business Combination, with such dollar amount in the Trust Account subject to maximum capping of $4,500,000.

Class A Ordinary shares — The Company is authorized to issue 200,000,000 Class A Ordinary shares with a par value of $0.0001 per share. At September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there were no (excluding 2,425,969 and 20,000,000 shares subject to possible redemption at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 respectively) Class A Ordinary shares issued and outstanding.

On January 20, 2023, The Company held an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders (the “Extraordinary General Meeting”), at which shareholders properly elected to redeem an aggregate of 16,988,575 Class A Ordinary Shares at a redemption price of approximately $10.32 per share (the “Redemption”), for an aggregate redemption amount of approximately $175,285,892. Following such redemptions, approximately $31,461,507 remained in the Company’s trust account.

On July 19, 2023, The Company held an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders (the “Extraordinary General Meeting”), at which shareholders properly elected to redeem an aggregate of 585,456 Class A Ordinary Shares at a redemption price of approximately $10.92 per share (the “Redemption”), for an aggregate redemption amount of approximately $6,395,800.

Holders of Class B Ordinary shares are entitled to one vote for each share. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there were 5,000,000 Class B Ordinary shares issued and outstanding after giving effect to the forfeiture of 750,000 Class B Ordinary shares.

Holders of Class A Ordinary shares and holders of Class B Ordinary shares will vote together as a single class on all other matters submitted to a vote of shareholders.

The Class B Ordinary shares will automatically convert into Class A Ordinary shares at the time of a Business Combination at a ratio such that the number of Class A Ordinary shares issuable upon conversion of all Founder Shares will equal, in the aggregate, on

an as-converted basis, 20% of the sum of (i) the total number of Ordinary shares issued and outstanding upon completion of the Initial Public Offering, plus (ii) the total number of Class A Ordinary shares issued or deemed issued or issuable upon conversion or exercise of any equity-linked securities or rights issued or deemed issued, by the Company in connection with or in relation to the consummation of a Business Combination, excluding any Class A Ordinary shares or equity-linked securities exercisable for or convertible into Class A Ordinary shares issued, deemed issued, or to be issued, to any seller in a Business Combination and any Private Placement Warrants issued to the Sponsor, its affiliates or any member of the management team upon conversion of Working Capital Loans.

Note 8 — Warrants

The Company has accounted for the 18,000,000 warrants to be issued in connection with the Initial Public Offering (the 10,000,000 Public Warrants and the 8,000,000 Private Placement Warrants) in accordance with the guidance contained in ASC 815-40. Since the warrants do not meet the criteria for equity treatment under the guidance, each warrant must be recorded as a liability. Accordingly, the Company will classify each warrant as a liability at its fair value. This liability is subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet date. With each such re-measurement, the warrant liability will be adjusted to fair value, with the change in fair value recognized in the Company’s statement of operations.

The Public Warrants will become exercisable on the later of (a) 30 days after the completion of a Business Combination or (b) 12 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering. No warrants will be exercisable for cash unless the Company has an effective and current registration statement covering the ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants and a current prospectus relating to such ordinary shares. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a registration statement covering the ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the Public Warrants is not effective within a specified period following the consummation of a Business Combination, warrant holders may, until such time as there is an effective registration statement and during any period when the Company shall have failed to maintain an effective registration statement, exercise warrants on a cashless basis pursuant to the exemption provided by Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act, provided that such exemption is available. If that exemption, or another exemption, is not available, holders will not be able to exercise their warrants on a cashless basis. The Public Warrants will expire five years after the completion of a Business Combination or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.

Once the warrants become exercisable, the Company may redeem the Public Warrants:

in whole and not in part;

at a price of $0.01 per warrant;

upon not less than 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption;

if, and only if, the reported last sale price of the ordinary shares equals or exceeds $18.00 per share (as adjusted for share splits, share dividends, reorganizations and recapitalizations), for any 20 trading days within a 30 trading day period commencing at any time after the warrants become exercisable and ending on the third business day prior to the notice of redemption to warrant holders; and

if, and only if, there is a current registration statement in effect with respect to the ordinary shares underlying the warrants.

If the Company calls the Public Warrants for redemption, management will have the option to require all holders that wish to exercise the Public Warrants to do so on a “cashless basis,” as described in the warrant agreement.

The Private Warrants are identical to the Public Warrants underlying the Units being sold in the Proposed Public Offering, except that the Private Warrants and the ordinary shares issuable upon the exercise of the Private Warrants will not be transferable, assignable or salable until after the completion of a Business Combination, subject to certain limited exceptions. Additionally, the Private Warrants are exercisable for cash or on a cashless basis, at the holder’s option, and be non-redeemable so long as they are held by the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees. If the Private Warrants are held by someone other than the initial purchasers or their permitted

transferees, the Private Warrants will be redeemable by the Company and exercisable by such holders on the same basis as the Public Warrants. Concurrently with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Sponsor and underwriter purchased an aggregate of 8,000,000 Private Placement Warrants at a price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant for an aggregate purchase price of $8,000,000. The fair value of the Private Placement Warrants at issuance was $9,000,000. Fair value in excess of sale on the issuance of private warrants was recorded in the statement of operations.

The exercise price and number of ordinary shares issuable on exercise of the warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances including in the event of a share dividend, extraordinary dividend or our recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation. However, the warrants will not be adjusted for issuances of ordinary shares at a price below their respective exercise prices. Additionally, in no event will the Company be required to net cash settle the warrants. If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period and the Company liquidates the funds held in the Trust Account, holders of warrants will not receive any of such funds with respect to their warrants, nor will they receive any distribution from the Company’s assets held outside of the Trust Account with the respect to such warrants. Accordingly, the warrants may expire worthless.

In addition, if the Company issues additional ordinary shares or equity-linked securities for capital raising purposes in connection with the closing of a Business Combination at an issue price or effective issue price of less than $9.20 per ordinary share (with such issue price or effective issue price to be determined in good faith by the Company’s board of directors, and in the case of any such issuance to the initial shareholders or their affiliates, without taking into account any Founder Shares held by them prior to such issuance), (y) the aggregate gross proceeds from such issuances represent more than 60% of the total equity proceeds, and interest thereon, available for the funding of a Business Combination on the date of the consummation of a Business Combination (net of redemptions), and (z) the volume weighted average trading price of the Company’s ordinary shares during the 20 trading day period starting on the trading day prior to the day on which the Company consummates Business Combination (such price, the “Market Value”) is below $9.20 per share, the exercise price of the warrants will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 115% of the greater of (i) the Market Value or (ii) the price at which the Company issues the additional ordinary shares or equity-linked securities.

As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there were 10,000,000 Public Warrants and 8,000,000 Private Warrants outstanding.

Fair Value Measurements

Note 9 — Fair Value Measurements

The Company follows the guidance in ASC Topic 820 for its financial assets and liabilities that are re-measured and reported at fair value at each reporting period and non-financial assets and liabilities that are re-measured and reported at fair value at least annually. The fair value of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities reflects management’s estimate of amounts that the Company would have received in connection with the sale of the assets or paid in connection with the transfer of the liabilities in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In connection with measuring the fair value of its assets and liabilities, the Company seeks to maximize the use of observable inputs (market data obtained from independent sources) and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs (internal assumptions about how market participants would price assets and liabilities). The following fair value hierarchy is used to classify assets and liabilities based on the observable inputs and unobservable inputs used in order to value the assets and liabilities:

Level 1:Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. An active market for an asset or liability is a market in which transactions for the asset or liability occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.

Level 2:Observable inputs other than Level 1 inputs. Examples of Level 2 inputs include quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities and quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.

Level 3:Unobservable inputs based on our assessment of the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

The Company classifies its U.S. Treasury and equivalent securities as trading securities with ASC Topic 320, “Investments—Debt and Equity Securities.” The Company’s investments held in the Trust Account are classified as trading securities. Trading securities are presented on the balance sheet at fair value at the end of each reporting period. Gains and losses resulting from the change in fair value of investments held in Trust Account are included in interest earned on marketable securities held in Trust Account in the accompanying

statements of operations. The estimated fair values of investments held in Trust Account are determined using available market information.

At September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, assets held in the Trust Account were comprised of $26,974,295 and $205,927,087 invested in U.S. Treasury Securities mutual funds.

The following tables present information about the Company’s assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 and indicate the fair value hierarchy of the valuation inputs the Company utilized to determine such fair value.

Warrants

The Company has determined that warrants issued in connection with its initial public offering in July 2021 are subject to treatment as a liability. The estimated fair value of the warrant liability is determined using Level 1 and Level 3 inputs. At September 30, 2023, the Public Warrants had adequate trading volume to provide a reliable indication of value. The Public Warrants were valued at $0.03 at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 respectively.

The Company utilized a modified Black Scholes model to value the Private Warrants at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. The estimated fair value of the warrant liability is determined using Level 3 inputs. Inherent in the model are assumptions related to expected share-price volatility, expected life, risk-free interest rate and dividend yield. The Company estimates the volatility of its ordinary shares based on historical volatility 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 to remain at zero.

Transfers to/from Levels 1, 2 and 3 are recognized at the end of each reporting period. The estimated fair value of the Public Warrants transferred from a Level 3 fair value measurement to a Level 1 fair value measurement as of September 7, 2021, when the Public Warrants began trading separately. No transfers have taken place in the three months ended September 30, 2023.

The following table provides quantitative information regarding Level 3 fair value measurements on September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation and Liquidity

Basis of Presentation and Liquidity

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-K and Article 8 of Regulation S-X of the SEC. Certain information or footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC for interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. In the opinion of management, the accompanying financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of

a normal recurring nature, which are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, operating results and cash flows for the periods presented.

Emerging Growth Company

Emerging Growth Company

The Company is an emerging growth company as defined in Section 102(b)(1) of the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”), which 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.

Use of Estimates

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. 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 financial statements. Specifically, these estimates include the probability of a successful business combination and the implied volatility of the Public and Private Warrants.

Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. Such estimates may be subject to change as more current information becomes available and accordingly the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. 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 financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

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 did not have any cash equivalents as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

Investments Held in Trust Account

Investments Held in Trust Account

At September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, substantially all of the assets held in the Trust Account were held in mutual funds invested in U.S. Treasury securities. The Company’s investments held in the Trust Account are classified as trading securities. Trading securities are presented on the balance sheet at fair value at the end of each reporting period. Gains and losses resulting from the change in fair value of investments held in Trust Account are included in interest earned on marketable securities held in Trust Account in the accompanying statements of operations. The estimated fair values of investments held in Trust Account are determined using available market information.

Offering Costs associated with the Initial Public Offering

Offering Costs associated with the Initial Public Offering

Offering costs, including additional underwriting fees associated with the underwriters’ exercise of the over-allotment option, consist principally of legal, accounting, underwriting fees and other costs directly related to the Initial Public Offering.

Concentration of Credit Risk

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, at times, may exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation coverage limit of $250,000. At September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company has not experienced losses on these accounts.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The fair value of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities reflects management’s estimate of amounts that the Company would have received in connection with the sale of the assets or paid in connection with the transfer of the liabilities in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In connection with measuring the fair value of its assets and liabilities, the Company seeks to maximize the use of observable inputs (market data obtained from independent sources) and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs (internal assumptions about how market participants would price assets and liabilities). The following fair value hierarchy is used to classify assets and liabilities based on the observable inputs and unobservable inputs used in order to value the assets and liabilities:

Level 1:Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. An active market for an asset or liability is a market in which transactions for the asset or liability occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.

Level 2:Observable inputs other than Level 1 inputs. Examples of Level 2 inputs include quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities and quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.

Level 3:Unobservable inputs based on the Company’s assessment of the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

Accounting for Warrants

Accounting for Warrants

The Company accounts for warrants as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the warrant’s specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in FASB ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (“ASC 480”) and ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”). The assessment considers whether the warrants are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and whether the warrants meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the warrants are indexed to the Company’s own ordinary shares, among other conditions for equity classification. This assessment, which requires the use of professional judgment, is conducted at the time of warrant issuance and as of each subsequent quarterly period end date while the warrants are outstanding.

For issued or modified warrants that meet all of the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded as a component of additional paid-in capital at the time of issuance. For issued or modified warrants that do not meet all the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded at their initial fair value on the date of issuance, and each balance sheet date thereafter.

Income Taxes

Income Taxes

The Company complies with the accounting and reporting requirements of ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes,” which requires an asset and liability approach to financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed for differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities that will result in future taxable or deductible amounts, based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

FASB 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 were no unrecognized tax benefits as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. The Company’s management determined that the Cayman Islands is the Company’s only major tax jurisdiction. The Company is not currently aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals, or material deviation from its position. The Company is subject to tax examinations by major taxing authorities since inception. There is

currently no taxation imposed by the Government of the Cayman Islands. In accordance with Cayman income tax regulations, income taxes are not levied on the Company. Consequently, income taxes are not reflected in the Company’s financial statements. The Company’s management does not expect that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits will materially change over the next twelve months.

There is currently no taxation imposed by the Government of the Cayman Islands. The Company has no connection to any other taxable jurisdiction and is presently not subject to income taxes or income tax filing requirements in the Cayman Islands or the United States. Consequently, income taxes are not reflected in the Company’s financial statements.

Class A Ordinary Shares Subject to Possible Redemption

Class A Ordinary Shares Subject to Possible Redemption

The Company accounts for its Class A Ordinary shares subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in “ASC Topic 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” Class A Ordinary shares subject to mandatory redemption (if any) is classified as a liability instrument and is measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable Class A Ordinary shares (including Class A Ordinary shares that features redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the Company’s control) is classified as temporary equity. At all other times, Class A Ordinary shares is classified as shareholders’ equity. The Company’s Class A Ordinary shares features certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, on September 30, 2023, 2,425,969 shares of Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption is presented as temporary equity, outside of the stockholders’ deficit section of the Company’s balance sheet.

The Company recognizes changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and adjusts the carrying value of redeemable ordinary shares to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Increases or decreases in the carrying amount of the redeemable ordinary shares are affected by charges against additional paid-in capital and accumulated deficit.

At September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Class A ordinary shares reflected in the balance sheet is reconciled in the following table:

Gross proceeds July 20, 2021	$	200,000,000

Net Income (loss) per Ordinary Share

Net income (loss) per Ordinary Share

Net income (loss) per ordinary share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding for the period. The Company has two classes of ordinary shares, which are referred to as Class A ordinary shares and Class B ordinary shares. Income and losses are shared pro rata between the two classes of shares. This presentation contemplates a Business Combination as the most likely outcome, in which case, both classes of ordinary shares share pro rata in the income of the Company. Remeasurement associated with the redeemable Class A ordinary shares is excluded from net loss per ordinary share as the redemption value approximates fair value.

The calculation of diluted income per ordinary share does not consider the effect of the warrants issued in connection with the (i) Initial Public Offering, and (ii) the concurrent private placement to purchase an aggregate of 18,000,000 shares of Class A ordinary shares since the exercise of the warrants is contingent upon the occurrence of future events. The warrants are exercisable to purchase 18,000,000 Class A ordinary shares in the aggregate. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 the Company did not have any dilutive securities or other contracts that could, potentially, be exercised or converted into ordinary shares and then share in the earnings of the Company. As a result, diluted net income (loss) per ordinary share is the same as basic net income (loss) per ordinary share for the periods presented.

The following table reflects the calculation of basic and diluted net income (loss) per ordinary share (in dollars, except per share amounts):
