the Initial
Public Offering and sale of Private Placement Warrants on investments held in the Trust Account. We incur expenses as a result
of being

Our results of operations and our ability to complete an initial Business Combination may be adversely affected by various factors, many of which are beyond our control, including economic uncertainty and volatility in the financial markets. Our results of operations and our ability to consummate an initial Business Combination could be impacted by, among other things, changes in laws or regulations, downturns in the financial markets or in economic conditions, increases in oil prices, inflation, fluctuations in interest rates, increases in tariffs, supply chain disruptions, declines in consumer confidence and spending, public health considerations, and geopolitical instability, such as the military conflicts in Ukraine and the Middle East. We cannot at this time predict the likelihood of one or more of the above events, their duration or magnitude or the extent to which they may negatively impact our business and our ability to complete an initial Business Combination.
For the threesix months ended
March 31,June 30, 2026, cash used
in operating activities was $140,747.$360,425. We had net income of $2,208,515$4,458,467 resulting from $2,498,253$5,111,653 of interest
earned on investments held
in the Trust Account offset by $289,738$653,186 of general and administrative expenses. Changes in operating assets
and liabilities reduced cash
used for operating activities by $148,991.$292,761.
At MarchJune 31,30, 2026, we had
investments held in the
Trust Account of $291,439,128.$294,052,528. We intend to use substantially all of the funds held in the Trust Account, including
any amounts representing
interest earned on the Trust Account, which interest shall be net of taxes payable, if any, and excluding deferred
underwriting commissions
and advisory fees, to complete our Business Combination. We may withdraw interest from the Trust Account to pay
taxes, if any. To the
extent that our share capital 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
make other acquisitions and pursue our growth strategies.
At MarchJune 31,30, 2026, we had
cash of $824,442$604,764 held

target businesses, perform
business due diligence on prospective target businesses, travel to and from the offices, plants or similar
locations of prospective target
businesses or their representatives or owners, review corporate documents and material agreements of prospective
target businesses, structure,
negotiate and complete a Business Combination.
On October 15, 2024,
our Sponsor agreed to
loan us an aggregate of up to $300,000 to be used for a portion of the expenses of the Initial Public Offering.
The loan was non-interest-bearing
and unsecured. As of December 31, 2025, we had borrowed $197,917 under the Note. Subsequently, on January
12, 2026, we paid the Note in
full and borrowings under the Note are no longer available. Accordingly, there is no outstanding balance
as of MarchJune 31,30, 2026.
Management has determined that we may not have sufficient liquidity to meet our current obligations and may need to raise additional funds to finance our working capital needs within one year from the date of issuance of these unaudited financial statements. These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
In order to finance a working
capital deficit
or to finance transaction costs in connection with an intended initial Business Combination, the Sponsor may, but is not
obligated to,
loan the Companyus funds as may be required. If we complete the Company completes its initial Business Combination, the Companywe would
repay the Working Capital Loans. In the event
that the initial Business Combination does not close, the Companywe may use a portion of the
working capital held outside the Trust Account to repay
the Working Capital Loans but no proceeds from the Trust Account would be used
to repay the Working Capital Loans. If the Sponsor makes
any Working Capital Loans, up to $1,500,000 of the Working Capital Loans may
be convertible into warrants of the post-business combination
entity at a price of $1.00 per warrant at the option of the Sponsor. The
warrants and their underlying securities would be identical to
the Private Placement Warrants. We cannot provide any assurances that our plans to consummate an initial Business Combination will be
successful.
We do not believe we will
need to raise additional funds in order to meet the expenditures required for operating our business. However, if our estimate of the
costs of identifying a target business, undertaking in-depth due diligence and negotiating a Business Combination are less than the actual
amount necessary to do so, we may have insufficient funds available to operate our business prior to our initial Business Combination.
Moreover, we may need to obtain additional financing either to complete our Business Combination or because we become obligated to redeem
a significant number of our Public Shares upon completion of our Business Combination, in which case we may issue additional securities
or incur debt in connection with such Business Combination.
WeIf we need to obtain additional financing either
to complete the Business Combination or because we become obligated to redeem a significant number of Public Shares upon completion of
the Business Combination, we may need to raise additional
capital through loans or additional investments from our Sponsor, shareholders,
officers, directors, or third parties. Our officers, directors
and our Sponsor may, but are not obligated to, loan us funds as may be
required. Accordingly, we may not be able to obtain additional
financing. If we are unable to raise additional capital, we 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. We cannot provide any assurance that new financing will be available
to itus on commercially acceptable terms, if at all. The
unaudited condensed 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 we be unable to continue
as a going concern.
We have no obligations,
assets or liabilities,
which would be considered off-balance sheet arrangements as of MarchJune 31,30, 2026. We do not participate in transactions
that create relationships
with unconsolidated 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.
The Company has entered into
an engagement letter
to obtain legal advisory services, pursuant to which the Company’s legal counsel agreed to defer certain fees
until the closing
of the initial Business Combination. As of MarchJune 31,30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company had incurred $1,197,413
of legal fees in excess
of the deferral threshold.
The holders of (i) Founder
Shares (only after
conversion of such shares to Class A ordinary shares), (ii) Private Placement Warrants (and their underlying
securities) and
(iii) warrants that may be issued upon conversion of Working Capital Loans (as defined belowabove) (and their underlying
securities),
if any, will be entitled to registration rights pursuant to a registration rights agreement. These holders are entitled to
make up to
three demands and have “piggyback” registration rights. However, the registration rights agreement provides that
the Company
will not be required to effect or permit any registration or cause any registration statement to become effective until termination of
of the applicable lock-up period. The registration rights agreement does not contain liquidating damages or other cash settlement provisions
resulting from delays in registering the Company’s securities. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the
filing of any such registration statements.
