Description of Organization and Business Operations and Liquidity
Description of Organization and Business Operations and Liquidity	Note 1—Description of Organization and Business Operations and Liquidity Tristar Acquisition I Corp. (the “Company”) is a blank check company incorporated in the Cayman Islands on March 5, 2021. The Company was formed for the purpose of entering into a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar Business Combination with one or more businesses (a “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. As of December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had not yet commenced any operations. All activity through December 31, 2023 relates to the Company’s formation and the Initial Public Offering (as defined below) and since completion of the IPO, searching for a target with which to consummate a Business Combination and consummating such 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 on cash and cash equivalents from the proceeds derived from the Initial Public Offering. The Company has selected December 31^st as its fiscal year end. The Company’s prior sponsor was Tristar Holdings I LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Prior Sponsor”). On July 18, 2023, upon the consummation of the Sponsor Handover (as defined below), Navy Sail International Limited, a British Virgin Islands company (the “Sponsor”), became the new sponsor of the Company. *Initial Public Offering* The registration statement for the Initial Public Offering was declared effective on October 13, 2021. On October 18, 2021, the Company consummated its initial public offering (the “Initial Public Offering”) of 20,000,000 units (the “Units” and, with respect to the shares of the Company’s Class A ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class A Ordinary Shares”), included in the Units, the “Public Shares”), at $10.00 per Unit, generating total gross proceeds of $200,000,000 (see Note 3). On November 3, 2021, the underwriters exercised the over-allotment option (“Over-Allotment Option”) and purchased an additional 3,000,000 Units, generating gross proceeds of $30 million (see Note 3). Each Unit consists of one Public Share and one-half of one redeemable warrant (each a “Public Warrant”). Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering and exercise of the Over-Allotment Option, the Company consummated the sale of 7,345,000 warrants (the “Private Placement Warrants” and together with the Public Warrants, the “Warrants”) at a price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant in a private placement to the Prior Sponsor (the “Private Placement”) generating gross proceeds of $7,345,000 (see Note 4). Each whole Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one Class A Ordinary Share at a price of $11.50 per share. Transaction costs amounted to $25,995,754, consisting of $4,600,000 of underwriting fees, $10,350,000 of deferred underwriting fees, $12,546,764 for the fair value of the Founder Shares (as defined in Note 5) attributable to the Anchor Investors (as defined in Note 5), and $1,003,989 of offering costs, partially offset by the reimbursement of $2,505,000 of offering expenses by the underwriters. The Company’s remaining cash after payment of the offering costs was held outside of the Company’s U.S.-based trust account (the “Trust Account”) for working capital purposes. Following the closing of the Initial Public Offering and Over-Allotment Option, an amount of $232,300,000 from the net proceeds of the (i) sale of the Units in the Initial Public Offering , (ii) exercise of the Over-Allotment Option and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants in the Private Placement was placed in the Trust Account and invested only in U.S. government treasury obligations with maturities of 185 days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), which invest only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations. To mitigate the risk that the Company might be deemed an investment company for purposes of the Investment Company Act, on November 9, 2023, the Company instructed Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company (“Continental”), the trustee with respect to the Trust Account, to liquidate the investments held in the Trust Account and instead to hold the funds in the Trust Account in an interest-bearing demand deposit account at a bank, with Continental continuing to act as trustee. As a result, following the liquidation of investments in the Trust Account, the remaining proceeds from the Initial Public Offering, Over-Allotment Option and Private Placement are no longer invested in U.S. government securities or money market funds. Except with respect to interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account that may be released to the Company to pay its tax obligations (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), the proceeds held in the Trust Account will not be released from the Trust Account until the earlier of: (i) the completion of the initial Business Combination; (ii) the redemption of any Public Shares properly tendered in connection with a shareholder vote to amend the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association (as amended and currently in effect, the “Amended and Restated Memorandum”) to modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to redeem 100% of the Public Shares if the Company does not complete the initial Business Combination within the Combination Period (as defined below) or with respect to any other material provisions relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-initial Business Combination activity; and (iii) failure by the Company to complete an initial Business Combination within the Combination Period and the return of the funds held in the Trust Account to the holder of its Public Shares (“Public Shareholders”) as part of the redemption of the Public Shares. If the Company is unable to complete the initial Business Combination, the Public Shareholders may only receive their pro rata portion of the funds in the Trust Account that are available for distribution to Public Shareholders, and the Warrants will expire worthless. The Company will provide its 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, in its sole discretion. The Public Shareholders will be entitled to redeem their Public Shares for a pro rata portion of the amount held in the Trust Account ($10.86 per share as of December 31, 2023), calculated as of two business days prior to the completion of a Business Combination, including any pro rata interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay its tax obligations (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses). There will be no redemption rights upon the completion of a Business Combination with respect to the Warrants. The Class A Ordinary Shares are recorded at redemption value and classified as temporary equity upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering, in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity” (“ASC 480”). The Company will proceed with a Business Combination if a majority of the shares voted are voted in favor of Business Combination. If a shareholder vote is not required under applicable law or stock 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 Amended and Restated Memorandum as then in effect, conduct the redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), and file tender offer documents containing substantially the same information as would be included in a proxy statement with the SEC prior to completing a Business Combination. If the Company seeks shareholder approval in connection with a Business Combination, the Prior Sponsor, Sponsor, Prior Officers (as defined below), Prior Directors (as defined below), Anchor Investors, and the Company’s current management team (the “Management”) have agreed to vote any Founder Shares held by them, and any Public Shares purchased in or after the Initial Public Offering in favor of approving a Business Combination. Additionally, each Public Shareholder may elect to redeem their Public Shares irrespective of whether they vote for or against the proposed transaction or whether they were a Public Shareholder on the record date for the general meeting held to approve the proposed transaction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company seeks shareholder approval of a Business Combination and it does not conduct redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules, the Amended and Restated Memorandum 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% of the Public Shares without the Company’s prior written consent. The Prior Sponsor, Sponsor, Prior Officers, Prior Directors, Anchor Investors, and the Management, and their respective designees and affiliates have agreed to (i) waive their redemption rights with respect to any Founder Shares they hold in connection with the completion of an initial Business Combination, (ii) waive their redemption rights with respect to any Founder Shares and Public Shares they hold in connection with a shareholder vote to approve an amendment to the Amended and Restated Memorandum to modify the substance or timing of the Company's obligation to redeem 100% of the Public Shares if the Company has not consummated an initial Business Combination within the Combination Period or with respect to any other material provisions relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-initial Business Combination activity and (iii) waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to any Founder Shares they hold if the Company fails to complete an initial Business Combination within the Combination Period. However, if such persons acquire Public Shares in or after the Initial Public Offering, such Public Shares will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period. The Company will have until October 18, 2024 if it utilizes the full Extension (as defined below) to complete a Business Combination (the “Combination Period”). If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the Company will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem the Public Shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account (which interest shall be net of taxes payable and 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), and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the Company's remaining shareholders and its board of directors (the “Board”), liquidate and dissolve, 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 order to protect the amounts held in the Trust Account, the Prior Sponsor has agreed to be liable to the Company if and to the extent any claims by a third party for services rendered or products sold to the Company, or a prospective target business with which the Company has discussed entering into a transaction agreement, reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account to below (i) $10.10 per Public Share or (ii) the actual amount per Public Share held in the Trust Account as of the date of the liquidation of the Trust Account if less than $10.10 per Public Share due to reductions in the value of the trust assets, in each case net of the interest that may be withdrawn to pay the Company’s tax obligations, provided that such liability will not apply to any claims by a third-party or prospective target business that executed a waiver of any and all rights to seek access to the Trust Account (whether or not such waiver is enforceable) nor will it apply to any claims under the Company’s indemnity of the underwriters of the Initial Public Offering against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). Moreover, in the event that an executed waiver is deemed to be unenforceable against a third party, the Prior 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 (other than the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm), prospective target businesses or other entities with which the Company does business, execute agreements with the Company waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to monies held in the Trust Account. *Extension of the Combination Period* The Company initially had until July 18, 2023, 21 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering, to consummate its initial Business Combination. On June 18, 2023, the Company held an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders, at which its shareholders approved, among other things, an amendment to the Amended and Restated Memorandum (the “Memorandum Amendment”) to (i) extend the date by which it has to complete a Business Combination from July 18, 2023 to October 18, 2023, and without another shareholder vote, to further extend the such period for an additional one (1) month as needed, on a month-to-month basis, up to twelve (12) times, until October 18, 2024 (the “Extension”), and (ii) remove the limitation that the Company may not redeem Public Shares to the extent that such redemption would result in the Company having net tangible assets (as determined in accordance with Rule 3a51-1(g)(1) of the Exchange Act), of less than $5,000,001 (the “Redemption Limitation”) in order to allow the Company to redeem Public Shares irrespective of whether such redemption would exceed the Redemption Limitation. In connection with the Memorandum Amendment, on July 18, 2023, shareholders holding 12,391,198 Public Shares exercised their right to redeem such shares for a pro rata portion of the funds in the Trust Account. As a result, $130,320,660 (approximately $10.52 per share) was removed from the Trust Account to pay such holders. Following redemptions, the Company had 10,608,802 Public Shares outstanding. *Sponsor Handover* On July 18, 2023, the Company entered into a securities transfer agreement (the “Sponsor Handover Securities Transfer Agreement”) by and among the Prior Sponsor and the Sponsor and its designees (the “Sponsor Purchasers”), whereby the Prior Sponsor agreed to transfer to the Sponsor Purchasers 3,046,634 of the Company’s Class B ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class B Ordinary Shares”) and 4,961,250 Private Placement Warrants, which the Prior Sponsor purchased in connection with the Initial Public Offering and Private Placement. In addition, all other holders of Class B Ordinary Shares at July 18, 2023 (together with the Prior Sponsor, the “Sponsor Handover Sellers”) transferred an aggregate of 1,380,866 of their Class B Ordinary Shares to Chunyi (Charlie) Hao, President, Chief Financial Officer and Chairman of the Board of Directors, pursuant to founder share transfer agreements executed by each respective holder on July 18, 2023 (the “Sponsor Handover Share Transfer Agreements” and collectively with the Sponsor Handover Securities Transfer Agreement, such transfers, the agreements executed in connection therewith (including the transactions contemplated therein) and the Management Changes (as defined below), the “Sponsor Handover”). After the closing of the Sponsor Handover on July 18, 2023, the Sponsor Handover Transferors held an aggregate of 1,322,500 Class B Ordinary Shares, and the Prior Sponsor held 2,383,750 Private Placement Warrants. In connection with the Sponsor Handover Securities Transfer Agreement, any accounts payable and accrued expenses in excess of $200,000 that were incurred by the Company prior to the Sponsor Handover was the responsibility of the Prior Sponsor to settle (the “Company Liability”). Following the transaction, any remaining liabilities incurred by the Company prior to the Sponsor Handover and any liabilities incurred post-the Sponsor Handover, continued as a liability to the Company. The Company incurred $191,628 in excess of the $200,000 Company Liability. The Prior Sponsor paid $191,628 for outstanding accounts payable and accrued expenses, which was recorded as additional paid-in capital for the year ended December 31, 2023. In connection with the Sponsor Handover, the Company, the Prior Officers, Prior Directors, and the Sponsor Purchasers entered into additional agreements whereby: (i) the Sponsor Purchasers each signed a joinder agreement (the “Joinder Agreement”) to become a party to the Letter Agreement (the “Insider Agreement”) and the Registration Rights Agreement (“Registration Rights Agreement”), both dated October 13, 2021 and entered into in connection with the Initial Public Offering, by and among the Company, the Prior Sponsor and certain equity holders of the Company; and (ii) the Insider Agreement was amended by the parties thereto to allow for the Transfer (the “Letter Agreement Amendment”). In addition, upon the closing of the Sponsor Holdover, the underwriters of the Initial Public Offering waived their respective entitlement to the payment of any deferred underwriting fees to be paid under the terms of Section 2(c) and Section 5(bb) of the Underwriting Agreement dated October 13, 2021 (the “Underwriting Agreement”). Additionally, the Company terminated the Administrative Support Agreement, dated October 13, 2021, with the Prior Sponsor (the “Administrative Support Agreement”) entered into in connection with the Initial Public Offering (see Note 5).

The foregoing descriptions of the Helport Business Combination Agreement and Helport Business Combination Agreement Amendment do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by the terms and conditions of the Helport Business Combination Agreement and Helport Business Combination Agreement Amendment. *Related Agreements and Documents* Lock-Up Agreements Prior to the Closing, Pubco, Helport, the Company, the Sponsor and certain shareholders holding (i) Helport Ordinary Shares and (ii) any preferred shares, par value $1.00 each, of Helport, upon and after completion of the Reorganization (either as the holder of record or the beneficial owner within the meaning of Rule 135-3 under the Exchange Act), shall enter into Lock-Up Agreements (each, a “Key Seller Lock-Up Agreement”). Pursuant to each Key Seller Lock-Up Agreement, each signatory thereto will agree not to, during the period commencing from the Closing Date and ending on the 24-month anniversary of the Closing Date (subject to early release if (x) the closing price of Pubco Ordinary Shares equals or exceeds $12.00 per share for any 20 out of 30 trading days commencing 270 days after the Closing or (y) Pubco consummates a sale of all or substantially all of the consolidated assets to a third-party; sale resulting in a change in holding of the majority of the voting power; or a merger, consolidation, recapitalization or reorganization that results in the inability of the pre-transaction equity holders to designate or elect a majority of the board of directors (or its equivalent) of the resulting entity or its parent company) (the “Lock-Up Period”): (i) lend, offer, pledge, hypothecate, encumber, donate, assign, sell, offer to sell, contract or agree to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, or otherwise transfer or 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 within the meaning of Section 16 of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the SEC promulgated thereunder, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any Lock-up Securities (as defined under the Key Seller Lock-Up Agreements), (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 the Lock-up Securities, whether any such transaction is to be settled by delivery of such Lock-up Securities, in cash or otherwise, or (iii) publicly disclose the intention to do any of the foregoing, whether any such transaction described in clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) above is to be settled by delivery of Lock-up Securities or other securities, in cash or otherwise (subject to early release if Pubco consummates a Change of Control) (any of the foregoing described in clauses (i), (ii) or (iii), a “Prohibited Transfer”). On April 26, 2024, Tristar entered into lock-up agreements (the “Amended Lock-Up Agreements”) with two shareholders of Helport (the “Helport Investors”), pursuant to which the Helport Investors agreed not to execute a Prohibited Transfer during the Lock-Up Period, provided, however, (i) each Helport Investor would be permitted to transfer the Lock-Up Securities during the Lock-Up Period to certain other shareholders of Helport, subject to certain trading volume limitations, and (ii) if each Holder made a credit facility available to Helport of at least $2,000,000 and $4,000,000, respectively, the Lock-Up Securities would be subject to early release upon the twelve-month anniversary of the Closing. The foregoing description of the Amended Lock-Up Agreements does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the terms and conditions of the Amended Lock-Up Agreements, which are attached hereto as Exhibits 10.31 and 10.32, respectively, and are incorporated herein by reference. Shareholder Support Agreement Simultaneously with the execution of the Helport Business Combination Agreement, the Company, Helport and a certain Helport Shareholder entered into a Shareholder Support Agreement (the “Shareholder Support Agreement”), pursuant to which, among other things, a Helport Shareholder has agreed (a) to support the adoption of the Business Combination Agreement and the approval of the Transactions, subject to certain customary conditions, and (b) not to transfer any of their subject shares (or enter into any arrangement with respect thereto), subject to certain customary conditions. The foregoing description of the Shareholder Support Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the terms and conditions of the Shareholder Support Agreement. Insider Letter Second Amendment Simultaneously with the execution of the Helport Business Combination Agreement, the Company, Helport, the Sponsor, Stephen Markscheid, Xin Yue Geffner, Wang Chiu Wong, Chunyi Hao, Michael Hao Liu and Alex Parker entered into the Insider Letter Second Amendment, pursuant to which, Pubco and Helport are added as parties to the Insider Letter. The foregoing description of the Insider Letter Second Amendment does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the terms and conditions of the Second Insider Letter Second Amendment. Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation Agreement Simultaneously with the execution of the Helport Business Combination Agreement, certain executive officers (each, a “Subject Party”) of Helport each entered into a non-competition and non-solicitation agreement (collectively, the “Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation Agreement”) with the Company, Pubco, Helport and the Sponsor. Under the Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation Agreement, the Subject Party agrees not to compete with Pubco, the Sponsor, the Company, Helport and their respective affiliates during the three-year period following the Closing and, during such three-year restricted period, not to solicit employees or customers of such entities. The Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation Agreement also contains customary confidentiality and non-disparagement provisions. The foregoing description of the Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the terms and conditions of the Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation Agreement. Assignment, Assumption and Amendment to Warrant Agreement Prior to the Closing, the Company, Pubco and Continental, as warrant agent, will enter the Assignment, Assumption and Amendment to Warrant Agreement (the “Warrant Amendment”), which amends the Warrant Agreement and. pursuant to which: (i) Pubco will assume the Company’s obligations under the Warrant Agreement, such that, among other things, Pubco will be added as a party thereto and (ii) references to the Company’s Class A Ordinary Shares in the Warrant Agreement shall mean Pubco ordinary shares. The foregoing description of the Warrant Amendment does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the terms and conditions of the Warrant Amendment. First Amendment to Registration Rights Agreement On or prior to the Closing, the Helport Business Combination Agreement provides that each of Helport, the Sponsor, Pubco, the Company and the Prior Sponsor will enter the First Amendment to Registration Rights Agreement (the “First Amendment to Registration Rights Agreement”), which amends the Registration Rights Agreement and pursuant to which, Pubco will agree to undertake certain resale shelf registration obligations in accordance with the Securities Act and the other parties thereto will be granted customary demand and piggyback registration rights. *Liquidity, Capital Resources and Going Concern* As of December 31, 2023, the Company had cash outside the Trust Account of $436,317 available for working capital needs. All remaining cash held in the Trust Account are generally unavailable for the Company’s use, prior to an initial Business Combination, and is restricted for use either in a Business Combination or to redeem Ordinary Shares. As of December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, none of the amount in the Trust Account was available to be withdrawn as described above. The Company’s cash held outside the Trust Account does not hold any cash taken from the Trust Account as of and for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022. Until consummation of its Business Combination, the Company uses the funds not held in the Trust Account, and any additional Working Capital Loans (as defined in Note 5) for identifying and evaluating prospective acquisition candidates, performing business due diligence on prospective target businesses, traveling to and from the offices, plants or similar locations of prospective target businesses, reviewing corporate documents and material agreements of prospective target businesses, selecting the target business to acquire and structuring, negotiating and consummating the Business Combination. The Company has until October 18, 2024, the end of the Combination Period, to consummate a Business Combination. It is uncertain that the Company will be able to consummate a Business Combination by this time. If a Business Combination is not consummated by this date and a further extension is not approved by the Company’s shareholders, there will be a mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution of the Company. In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with FASB ASU Topic 2014-15, “Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern,” Management has determined that the mandatory liquidation, should a Business Combination not occur within the Combination Period, approval for extension needed by the Company’s shareholders, and potential subsequent dissolution raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. No adjustments have been made to the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities should we be required to liquidate after October 18, 2024. Additionally, the Company may need to raise additional capital in order to operate the Company’s business prior to the Company’s initial Business Combination through loans or additional investments. The Company’s officers, directors, Sponsor or affiliate of the Sponsor may, but are not obligated to loan the Company funds to meet working capital needs. Accordingly, the Company may not be able to obtain additional financing. If the Company is unable to raise additional capital, it may be required to take additional measures to conserve liquidity, which could include, but not necessarily be limited to, curtailing operations, suspending the pursuit of a potential transaction, and reducing overhead expenses. The Company cannot provide any assurance that new financing will be available to it on commercially acceptable terms, if at all. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. No adjustments have been made 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* The impact of current conflicts around the globe, including Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and the Israel-Hamas war, and related sanctions, on the world economy is not determinable as of the date of these financial statements. The specific impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows is also not determinable as of the date of these financial statements.

Description of Organization and Business Operations and Liquidity

Note 1—Description of Organization and Business Operations and Liquidity

Tristar Acquisition I Corp. (the “Company”) is a blank check company incorporated in the Cayman Islands on March 5, 2021. The Company was formed for the purpose of entering into a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar Business Combination with one or more businesses (a “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.

As of December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had not yet commenced any operations. All activity through December 31, 2023 relates to the Company’s formation and the Initial Public Offering (as defined below) and since completion of the IPO, searching for a target with which to consummate a Business Combination and consummating such 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 on cash and cash equivalents from the proceeds derived from the Initial Public Offering. The Company has selected December 31^st as its fiscal year end.

The Company’s prior sponsor was Tristar Holdings I LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Prior Sponsor”). On July 18, 2023, upon the consummation of the Sponsor Handover (as defined below), Navy Sail International Limited, a British Virgin Islands company (the “Sponsor”), became the new sponsor of the Company.

Initial Public Offering

The registration statement for the Initial Public Offering was declared effective on October 13, 2021. On October 18, 2021, the Company consummated its initial public offering (the “Initial Public Offering”) of 20,000,000 units (the “Units” and, with respect to the shares of the Company’s Class A ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class A Ordinary Shares”), included in the Units, the “Public Shares”), at $10.00 per Unit, generating total gross proceeds of $200,000,000 (see Note 3). On November 3, 2021, the underwriters exercised the over-allotment option (“Over-Allotment Option”) and purchased an additional 3,000,000 Units, generating gross proceeds of $30 million (see Note 3). Each Unit consists of one Public Share and one-half of one redeemable warrant (each a “Public Warrant”).

Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering and exercise of the Over-Allotment Option, the Company consummated the sale of 7,345,000 warrants (the “Private Placement Warrants” and together with the Public Warrants, the “Warrants”) at a price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant in a private placement to the Prior Sponsor (the “Private Placement”) generating gross proceeds of $7,345,000 (see Note 4). Each whole Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one Class A Ordinary Share at a price of $11.50 per share.

Transaction costs amounted to $25,995,754, consisting of $4,600,000 of underwriting fees, $10,350,000 of deferred underwriting fees, $12,546,764 for the fair value of the Founder Shares (as defined in Note 5) attributable to the Anchor Investors (as defined in Note 5), and $1,003,989 of offering costs, partially offset by the reimbursement of $2,505,000 of offering expenses by the underwriters. The Company’s remaining cash after payment of the offering costs was held outside of the Company’s U.S.-based trust account (the “Trust Account”) for working capital purposes.

Following the closing of the Initial Public Offering and Over-Allotment Option, an amount of $232,300,000 from the net proceeds of the (i) sale of the Units in the Initial Public Offering , (ii) exercise of the Over-Allotment Option and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants in the Private Placement was placed in the Trust Account and invested only in U.S. government treasury obligations with maturities of 185 days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), which invest only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations. To mitigate the risk that the Company might be deemed an investment company for purposes of the Investment Company Act, on November 9, 2023, the Company instructed Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company (“Continental”), the trustee with respect to the Trust Account, to liquidate the investments held in the Trust Account and instead to hold the funds in the Trust Account in an interest-bearing demand deposit account at a bank, with Continental continuing to act as trustee. As a result, following the liquidation of investments in the Trust Account, the remaining proceeds from the Initial Public Offering, Over-Allotment Option and Private Placement are no longer invested in U.S. government securities or money market funds.

Except with respect to interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account that may be released to the Company to pay its tax obligations (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), the proceeds held in the Trust Account will not be released from the Trust Account until the earlier of: (i) the completion of the initial Business Combination; (ii) the redemption of any Public Shares properly tendered in connection with a shareholder vote to amend the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association (as amended and currently in effect, the “Amended and Restated Memorandum”) to modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to redeem 100% of the Public Shares if the Company does not complete the initial Business Combination within the Combination Period (as defined below) or with respect to any other material provisions relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-initial Business Combination activity; and (iii) failure by the Company to complete an initial Business Combination within the Combination Period and the return of the funds held in the Trust Account to the holder of its Public Shares (“Public Shareholders”) as part of the redemption of the Public Shares. If the Company is unable to complete the initial Business Combination, the Public Shareholders may only receive their pro rata portion of the funds in the Trust Account that are available for distribution to Public Shareholders, and the Warrants will expire worthless.

The Company will provide its 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, in its sole discretion. The Public Shareholders will be entitled to redeem their Public Shares for a pro rata portion of the amount held in the Trust Account ($10.86 per share as of December 31, 2023), calculated as of two business days prior to the completion of a Business Combination, including any pro rata interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay its tax obligations (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses). There will be no redemption rights upon the completion of a Business Combination with respect to the Warrants. The Class A Ordinary Shares are recorded at redemption value and classified as temporary equity upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering, in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity” (“ASC 480”).

The Company will proceed with a Business Combination if a majority of the shares voted are voted in favor of Business Combination. If a shareholder vote is not required under applicable law or stock 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 Amended and Restated Memorandum as then in effect, conduct the redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), and file tender offer documents containing substantially the same information as would be included in a proxy statement with the SEC prior to completing a Business Combination. If the Company seeks shareholder approval in connection with a Business Combination, the Prior Sponsor, Sponsor, Prior Officers (as defined below), Prior Directors (as defined below), Anchor Investors, and the Company’s current management team (the “Management”) have agreed to vote any Founder Shares held by them, and any Public Shares purchased in or after the Initial Public Offering in favor of approving a Business Combination. Additionally, each Public Shareholder may elect to redeem their Public Shares irrespective of whether they vote for or against the proposed transaction or whether they were a Public Shareholder on the record date for the general meeting held to approve the proposed transaction.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company seeks shareholder approval of a Business Combination and it does not conduct redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules, the Amended and Restated Memorandum 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% of the Public Shares without the Company’s prior written consent.

The Prior Sponsor, Sponsor, Prior Officers, Prior Directors, Anchor Investors, and the Management, and their respective designees and affiliates have agreed to (i) waive their redemption rights with respect to any Founder Shares they hold in connection with the completion of an initial Business Combination, (ii) waive their redemption rights with respect to any Founder Shares and Public Shares they hold in connection with a shareholder vote to approve an amendment to the Amended and Restated Memorandum to modify the substance or timing of the Company's obligation to redeem 100% of the Public Shares if the Company has not consummated an initial Business Combination within the Combination Period or with respect to any other material provisions relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-initial Business Combination activity and (iii) waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to any Founder Shares they hold if the Company fails to complete an initial Business Combination within the Combination Period. However, if such persons acquire Public Shares in or after the Initial Public Offering, such Public Shares will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period.

The Company will have until October 18, 2024 if it utilizes the full Extension (as defined below) to complete a Business Combination (the “Combination Period”). If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the Company will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem the Public Shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account (which interest shall be net of taxes payable and 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), and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the Company's remaining shareholders and its board of directors (the “Board”), liquidate and dissolve, 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 order to protect the amounts held in the Trust Account, the Prior Sponsor has agreed to be liable to the Company if and to the extent any claims by a third party for services rendered or products sold to the Company, or a prospective target business with which the Company has discussed entering into a transaction agreement, reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account to below (i) $10.10 per Public Share or (ii) the actual amount per Public Share held in the Trust Account as of the date of the liquidation of the Trust Account if less than $10.10 per Public Share due to reductions in the value of the trust assets, in each case net of the interest that may be withdrawn to pay the Company’s tax obligations, provided that such liability will not apply to any claims by a third-party or prospective target business that executed a waiver of any and all rights to seek access to the Trust Account (whether or not such waiver is enforceable) nor will it apply to any claims under the Company’s indemnity of the underwriters of the Initial Public Offering against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). Moreover, in the event that an executed waiver is deemed to be unenforceable against a third party, the Prior 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 (other than the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm), prospective target businesses or other entities with which the Company does business, execute agreements with the Company waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to monies held in the Trust Account.

Extension of the Combination Period

The Company initially had until July 18, 2023, 21 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering, to consummate its initial Business Combination. On June 18, 2023, the Company held an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders, at which its shareholders approved, among other things, an amendment to the Amended and Restated Memorandum (the “Memorandum Amendment”) to (i) extend the date by which it has to complete a Business Combination from July 18, 2023 to October 18, 2023, and without another shareholder vote, to further extend the such period for an additional one (1) month as needed, on a month-to-month basis, up to twelve (12) times, until October 18, 2024 (the “Extension”), and (ii) remove the limitation that the Company may not redeem Public Shares to the extent that such redemption would result in the Company having net tangible assets (as determined in accordance with Rule 3a51-1(g)(1) of the Exchange Act), of less than $5,000,001 (the “Redemption Limitation”) in order to allow the Company to redeem Public Shares irrespective of whether such redemption would exceed the Redemption Limitation.

In connection with the Memorandum Amendment, on July 18, 2023, shareholders holding 12,391,198 Public Shares exercised their right to redeem such shares for a pro rata portion of the funds in the Trust Account. As a result, $130,320,660 (approximately $10.52 per share) was removed from the Trust Account to pay such holders. Following redemptions, the Company had 10,608,802 Public Shares outstanding.

Sponsor Handover

On July 18, 2023, the Company entered into a securities transfer agreement (the “Sponsor Handover Securities Transfer Agreement”) by and among the Prior Sponsor and the Sponsor and its designees (the “Sponsor Purchasers”), whereby the Prior Sponsor agreed to transfer to the Sponsor Purchasers 3,046,634 of the Company’s Class B ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class B Ordinary Shares”) and 4,961,250 Private Placement Warrants, which the Prior Sponsor purchased in connection with the Initial Public Offering and Private Placement. In addition, all other holders of Class B Ordinary Shares at July 18, 2023 (together with the Prior Sponsor, the “Sponsor Handover Sellers”) transferred an aggregate of 1,380,866 of their Class B Ordinary Shares to Chunyi (Charlie) Hao, President, Chief Financial Officer and Chairman of the Board of Directors, pursuant to founder share transfer agreements executed by each respective holder on July 18, 2023 (the “Sponsor Handover Share Transfer Agreements” and collectively with the Sponsor Handover Securities Transfer Agreement, such transfers, the agreements executed in connection therewith (including the transactions contemplated therein) and the Management Changes (as defined below), the “Sponsor Handover”). After the closing of the Sponsor Handover on July 18, 2023, the Sponsor Handover Transferors held an aggregate of 1,322,500 Class B Ordinary Shares, and the Prior Sponsor held 2,383,750 Private Placement Warrants. In connection with the Sponsor Handover Securities Transfer Agreement, any accounts payable and accrued expenses in excess of $200,000 that were incurred by the Company prior to the Sponsor Handover was the responsibility of the Prior Sponsor to settle (the “Company Liability”). Following the transaction, any remaining liabilities incurred by the Company prior to the Sponsor Handover and any liabilities incurred post-the Sponsor Handover, continued as a liability to the Company. The Company incurred $191,628 in excess of the $200,000 Company Liability. The Prior Sponsor paid $191,628 for outstanding accounts payable and accrued expenses, which was recorded as additional paid-in capital for the year ended December 31, 2023.

In connection with the Sponsor Handover, the Company, the Prior Officers, Prior Directors, and the Sponsor Purchasers entered into additional agreements whereby: (i) the Sponsor Purchasers each signed a joinder agreement (the “Joinder Agreement”) to become a party to the Letter Agreement (the “Insider Agreement”) and the Registration Rights Agreement (“Registration Rights Agreement”), both dated October 13, 2021 and entered into in connection with the Initial Public Offering, by and among the Company, the Prior Sponsor and certain equity holders of the Company; and (ii) the Insider Agreement was amended by the parties thereto to allow for the Transfer (the “Letter Agreement Amendment”). In addition, upon the closing of the Sponsor Holdover, the underwriters of the Initial Public Offering waived their respective entitlement to the payment of any deferred underwriting fees to be paid under the terms of Section 2(c) and Section 5(bb) of the Underwriting Agreement dated October 13, 2021 (the “Underwriting Agreement”). Additionally, the Company terminated the Administrative Support Agreement, dated October 13, 2021, with the Prior Sponsor (the “Administrative Support Agreement”) entered into in connection with the Initial Public Offering (see Note 5).

As part of the Sponsor Handover, the Company also changed its management (the “Management Changes”) and the Board as follows: (i) effective as of July 18, 2023, Chunyi (Charlie) Hao replaced William M.

Liquidity, Capital Resources and Going Concern

As of December 31, 2023, the Company had cash outside the Trust Account of $436,317 available for working capital needs. All remaining cash held in the Trust Account are generally unavailable for the Company’s use, prior to an initial Business Combination, and is restricted for use either in a Business Combination or to redeem Ordinary Shares. As of December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, none of the amount in the Trust Account was available to be withdrawn as described above. The Company’s cash held outside the Trust Account does not hold any cash taken from the Trust Account as of and for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022.

Until consummation of its Business Combination, the Company uses the funds not held in the Trust Account, and any additional Working Capital Loans (as defined in Note 5) for identifying and evaluating prospective acquisition candidates, performing business due diligence on prospective target businesses, traveling to and from the offices, plants or similar locations of prospective target businesses, reviewing corporate documents and material agreements of prospective target businesses, selecting the target business to acquire and structuring, negotiating and consummating the Business Combination.

The Company has until October 18, 2024, the end of the Combination Period, to consummate a Business Combination. It is uncertain that the Company will be able to consummate a Business Combination by this time. If a Business Combination is not consummated by this date and a further extension is not approved by the Company’s shareholders, there will be a mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution of the Company. In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with FASB ASU Topic 2014-15, “Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern,” Management has determined that the mandatory liquidation, should a Business Combination not occur within the Combination Period, approval for extension needed by the Company’s shareholders, and potential subsequent dissolution raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. No adjustments have been made to the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities should we be required to liquidate after October 18, 2024.

Additionally, the Company may need to raise additional capital in order to operate the Company’s business prior to the Company’s initial Business Combination through loans or additional investments. The Company’s officers, directors, Sponsor or affiliate of the Sponsor may, but are not obligated to loan the Company funds to meet working capital needs. Accordingly, the Company may not be able to obtain additional financing. If the Company is unable to raise additional capital, it may be required to take additional measures to conserve liquidity, which could include, but not necessarily be limited to, curtailing operations, suspending the pursuit of a potential transaction, and reducing overhead expenses. The Company cannot provide any assurance that new financing will be available to it on commercially acceptable terms, if at all. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. No adjustments have been made 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

The impact of current conflicts around the globe, including Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and the Israel-Hamas war, and related sanctions, on the world economy is not determinable as of the date of these financial statements. The specific impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows is also not determinable as of the date of these financial statements.
