We believe that the funds available to us outside of the Trust Account, together with funds available from loans from our sponsor, members of our management team or any of their affiliates (including loans convertible into our Class A ordinary shares on the same terms as the private placement shares) will be sufficient to allow us to operate until we are required to liquidate pursuant to our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association; however, our estimate may not be accurate, and our sponsor, members of our management team or any of their affiliates are under no obligation to advance funds to us in such circumstances.

We could also use a portion of the funds as a down payment or to fund a “no-shop” provision (a provision in letters of intent designed to keep target businesses from “shopping” around for transactions with other companies or investors on terms more favorable to such target businesses) with respect to a particular proposed business combination, although we do not have any current intention to do so. If we entered into a letter of intent where we paid for the right to receive exclusivity from a target business and were subsequently required to forfeit such funds (whether as a result of our breach or otherwise), we might not have sufficient funds to continue searching for, or conduct due diligence with respect to, a target business.

The Proposed Freenome Business Combination may not be completed on the terms or timeline currently contemplated, or at all.
During the pendency of the Business Combination Agreement, we may not be able to enter into a business combination with another party at a favorable price because of restrictions in the Business Combination Agreement, which could adversely affect its business.
We are a newly incorporated company with no operating history and no revenues, and you have no basis on which to evaluate our ability to achieve our business objective.
Past performance by our management team or their affiliates, including Perceptive Advisors, ARYA Sciences Acquisition Corp., ARYA Sciences Acquisition Corp II, ARYA Sciences Acquisition Corp III and ARYA Sciences Acquisition Corp IV, or their respective business combination targets, may not be indicative of future performance of an investment in us.
Our shareholders may not be afforded an opportunity to vote on our proposed initial business combination, including the Proposed Freenome Business Combination, and even if we hold a vote, holders of our Founder Shares will participate in such vote, which means we may complete our initial business combination even though a majority of our public shareholders do not support such a combination.
Your only opportunity to effect your investment decision regarding a potential business combination may be limited to the exercise of your right to redeem your shares from us for cash.
If we seek shareholder approval of our initial business combination, including the Proposed Freenome Business Combination, our sponsor and members of our management team have agreed to vote in favor of such initial business combination, including the Proposed Freenome Business Combination, regardless of how our public shareholders vote.
You will not have any rights or interests in funds from the Trust Account, except under certain limited circumstances. Therefore, to liquidate your investment, you may be forced to sell your public shares, potentially at a loss.
Nasdaq may delist our Class A ordinary shares from trading on its exchange, which could limit investors’ ability to make transactions in our securities and subject us to additional trading restrictions.
The ability of our public shareholders to redeem their shares for cash may make our financial condition unattractive to potential business combination targets, which may make it difficult for us to enter into a business combination with a target.
The ability of our public shareholders to exercise redemption rights with respect to a large number of our shares may not allow us to complete the most desirable business combination or optimize our capital structure.
The requirement that we consummate an initial business combination within 24 months after the closing of our Initial Public Offering may give potential target businesses leverage over us in negotiating a business combination and may limit the time we have in which to conduct due diligence on potential business combination targets, in particular as we approach our dissolution deadline, which could undermine our ability to complete our initial business combination on terms that would produce value for our shareholders.
If the Proposed Freenome Business Combination is not consummated, we may not be able to consummate our initial business combination within 24 months after the closing of our Initial Public Offering, in which case we would cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up and we would redeem our Public Shares and liquidate.
If we seek shareholder approval of our initial business combination, our Initial Shareholders, advisors and their affiliates may elect to purchase shares from public shareholders, which may influence a vote on a proposed business combination and reduce the public “float” of our Class A ordinary shares.
If a shareholder fails to receive notice of our offer to redeem our Public Shares in connection with our initial business combination, or fails to comply with the procedures for submitting or tendering its shares, such shares may not be redeemed.
Because of our limited resources and the significant competition for business combination opportunities, it may be more difficult for us to complete our initial business combination. If we do not to complete our initial business combination, our public shareholders may receive only their pro rata portion of the funds in the Trust Account that are available for distribution to public shareholders.
If the net proceeds of our Initial Public Offering and the sale of the Private Placement shares not being held in the Trust Account are insufficient to allow us to operate for at least the next 24 months, it could limit the amount available to fund our search for a target business or businesses and complete our initial business combination, and we will depend on loans from our sponsor or management team to fund our search and to complete our initial business combination.
We have been a passive foreign investment company, or “PFIC,” which could result in adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences to U.S. investors.
Because we are incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands, in the event we do not consummate an initial business combination, you may face difficulties in protecting your interests, and your ability to protect your rights through the U.S. Federal courts may be limited.
In recent years, the number of special purpose acquisition companies that have been formed has increased substantially, potentially resulting in more competition for attractive targets. If this situation were to occur again, this could increase the cost of our initial business combination and could even result in our inability to find a target or to consummate an initial business combination.
The Proposed Freenome Business Combination may not be completed on the terms or timeline currently contemplated, or at all.
The consummation of the Proposed Freenome Business Combination is subject to numerous conditions, including the effectiveness of the registration statement on Form S-4 to be filed by us as part of the Proposed Freenome Business Combination, and other customary closing conditions, and there can be no assurance that the Proposed Freenome Business Combination will be consummated.
If the Proposed Freenome Business Combination is not completed for any reason, the price of our Class A Ordinary Shares may decline to the extent that the market price of our Class A Ordinary Shares reflects or previously reflected positive market assumptions that the Proposed Freenome Business Combination would be completed and the related benefits would be realized. In addition, we have expended and will continue to expend significant management time and resources and have incurred and will continue to incur significant expenses due to legal, advisory, printing, and financial services fees related to the Proposed Freenome Business Combination. These expenses must be paid regardless of whether the Proposed Freenome Business Combination is consummated.
If the Proposed Freenome Business Combination is not completed for any reason, our ongoing business and financial results may be adversely affected and, without realizing any of the benefits of having completed the Proposed Freenome Business Combination, we will be subject to a number of risks, including the following:
we will be required to pay costs relating to the Proposed Freenome Business Combination, which are substantial, such as legal, accounting, financial advisory, and printing fees, whether or not the Proposed Freenome Business Combination is completed;
time and resources committed by our management to matters relating to the Proposed Freenome Business Combination could otherwise have been devoted to pursuing other beneficial opportunities;
we may experience negative reactions from financial markets, including negative impacts on the price of our Class A Ordinary Shares, including to the extent that the current market price reflects a market assumption that the Proposed Freenome Business Combination will be completed;
we may experience negative reactions from employees, customers, or vendors; and since the Business Combination Agreement restricts the conduct of our business prior to completion of the Proposed Freenome Business Combination, we may not have been able to take certain actions during the pendency of the Proposed Freenome Business Combination that would have benefited it as an independent company and the opportunity to take such actions may no longer be available.
During the pendency of the Business Combination Agreement, we may not be able to enter into a business combination with another party at a favorable price because of restrictions in the Business Combination Agreement, which could adversely affect its business.
Covenants in the Business Combination Agreement impede our ability to make acquisitions, subject to specified exceptions relating to fiduciary duties, or complete other mergers, sales of assets, or other business combinations pending completion of the Proposed Freenome Business Combination. As a result, if the Proposed Freenome Business Combination is not completed, we may be at a disadvantage to our competitors during that period. In addition, while the Business Combination Agreement is in effect, we are generally prohibited from soliciting, initiating, encouraging, or entering into specified extraordinary transactions, such as a merger, sale of assets, or other business combination, with any third party, subject to specified exceptions, even if any such transaction could be favorable to our stockholders.
Past performance by our management team or their affiliates, including Perceptive Advisors, ARYA Sciences Acquisition Corp., ARYA Sciences Acquisition Corp II, ARYA Sciences Acquisition Corp III and ARYA Sciences Acquisition Corp IV, or their respective business combination targets, may not be indicative of future performance of an investment in us.
Information regarding performance by, or businesses associated with, our management team or their affiliates, including Perceptive Advisors, ARYA
Sciences Acquisition Corp., ARYA Sciences Acquisition Corp II, ARYA Sciences Acquisition Corp III and ARYA Sciences Acquisition Corp IV, is presented for informational purposes only. Any past experience of and performance by our management team or
their affiliates, including Perceptive Advisors, ARYA Sciences Acquisition Corp., ARYA Sciences Acquisition Corp II, ARYA Sciences Acquisition Corp III and ARYA Sciences Acquisition Corp IV, or their respective business combination targets, is presented for informational purposes only. Any past experience of and performance by our management team or their affiliates, including Perceptive Advisors, ARYA Sciences Acquisition Corp., ARYA Sciences Acquisition Corp II, ARYA Sciences Acquisition Corp III and ARYA Sciences Acquisition Corp IV, or their respective business combination targets, is not a guarantee either: (1) that we will be able to
successfully identify a suitable candidate for our initial business combination; or (2) of any results with respect to any business combination we may consummate. You should not rely on the historical record of our management team or their
affiliates, including ARYA Sciences Acquisition Corp., ARYA Sciences Acquisition Corp II, ARYA Sciences Acquisition Corp III, ARYA Sciences Acquisition Corp IV and Perceptive Advisors or any of their affiliates’ or managed fund’s performance as
indicative of the future performance of an investment in us or the returns we will, or are likely to, generate going forward. An investment in us is not an investment in Perceptive Advisors.
Our shareholders may not be afforded an opportunity to vote on our proposed initial business combination, including the Proposed Freenome Business Combination, which means we may complete our initial business combination even though a majority of our shareholders do not support such a combination.
We may not hold a shareholder vote to approve our initial business combinationcombination, including the Proposed Freenome Business Combination, unless the business combination would require shareholder approval
under applicable Cayman Islands law or stock exchange listing requirements or if we decide to hold a shareholder vote for business or other reasons. For instance, the Nasdaq rules currently allow us to engage in a tender offer in lieu of a
shareholder meeting but would still require us to obtain shareholder approval if we were seeking to issue more than 20% of our issued and outstanding shares (excluding the Private Placement shares) to a target business as consideration in any
business combination. Therefore, if we were structuring a business combination that required us to issue more than 20% of our issued and outstanding ordinary shares (excluding the Private Placement shares), we would seek shareholder approval of such
business combination. However, except as required by applicable law or stock exchange rule, the decision as to whether we will seek shareholder approval of a proposed business combination or will allow shareholders to sell their shares to us in a
tender offer will be made by us, solely in our discretion, and will be based on a variety of factors, such as the timing of the transaction and whether the terms of the transaction would otherwise require us to seek shareholder approval. Accordingly,
we may consummate our initial business combination even if holders of a majority of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares do not approve of the business combination we consummate.
At the time of your investment in us, you will not be provided with an opportunity to evaluate the specific merits or risks of any target businesses.
businesses, including Freenome. Since our board of directors may complete a business combination without seeking shareholder approval, including the Proposed Freenome Business Combination, public shareholders may not have the right or opportunity to vote on the business combination, including the Proposed Freenome Business Combination, unless we seek such shareholder approval.
Accordingly, your only opportunity to affect the investment decision regarding a potential business combination may be limited to exercising your redemption rights within the period of time (which will be at least 20 business days) set forth in our
tender offer documents mailed to our public shareholders in which we describe our initial business combination. The amount of the deferred underwriting commissions payable to the underwriter will not be adjusted for any shares that are redeemed in
connection with an initial business combination. The per-share amount we will distribute to shareholders who properly exercise their redemption rights will not be reduced by the deferred underwriting commission and after such redemptions and the
per-share value of shares held by non-redeeming shareholders may reflect our obligation to pay the deferred underwriting commissions.
If we seek shareholder approval of our initial business combination, including the Proposed Freenome Business Combination, our sponsor and members of our management team have agreed to vote in favor of such initial business combination, including the Proposed Freenome Business Combination, regardless of how our public shareholders vote.
Our sponsor owns, on an as-converted basis, 20% of our issued and outstanding ordinary shares (excluding the Private Placement shares) immediately following the completion of our Initial Public Offering. Our sponsor and members of our management team also may from time to time purchase Class A ordinary shares prior to the completion of our initial business combination. Our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association provide that, if we seek shareholder approval, we will complete our initial business combination only if a majority of the ordinary shares, represented in person or by proxy and entitled to vote thereon, voted at a shareholder meeting are voted in favor of the business combination. As a result, in addition to our shareholders’ Founder Shares and Private Placement shares, we would need 3,091,251, or 35.8% of the 8,625,000 Public Shares sold in connection with our Initial Public Offering to be voted in favor of an initial business combination in order to have our initial business combination approved (assuming all issued and outstanding shares are voted). Assuming that only the holders of one-third of our issued and outstanding ordinary shares, representing a quorum under our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, vote their shares, we will not need any public shares in addition to our Founder Shares and the Private Placement shares held by our sponsor to be voted in favor of an initial business combination in order to approve an initial business combination. Accordingly, if we seek shareholder approval of our initial business combination, including the Proposed Freenome Business Combination, the agreement by our sponsor and our management team to vote in favor of our initial business combination will increase the likelihood that we will receive the requisite shareholder approval for such initial business combination.
Our public shareholders will beare entitled to receive funds from the Trust Account only upon the earlier to occur of: (i) our completion of an initial
business combination, and then only in connection with those Class A ordinary shares that such shareholder properly elected to redeem, subject to the limitations described herein, (ii) the redemption of any public shares properly tendered in
connection with the implementation by the directors of, following a shareholder vote, an amendment to our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association (A) to modify the substance or timing of our obligation to provide holders of our
Class A ordinary shares the right to have their shares redeemed or repurchased in connection with our initial business combination or to redeem 100% of our public shares if we do not complete our initial business combination within 24 months from the
closing of our Initial Public Offering or (B) with respect to any other provision relating to the rights of holders of our Class A ordinary shares, and (iii) the redemption of our public shares if we have not consummated an initial business within 24
months from the closing of our Initial Public Offering, including the Proposed Freenome Business Combination, subject to applicable law and as further described herein. Public shareholders who redeem their Class A ordinary shares in connection with a shareholder vote described in clause (ii) in the
preceding sentence shall not be entitled to funds from the Trust Account upon the subsequent completion of an initial business combination or liquidation if we have not consummated an initial business combinationcombination, including the Proposed Freenome Business Combination, within 24 months from the closing of
our Initial Public Offering, with respect to such Class A ordinary shares so redeemed. In no other circumstances will a shareholder have any right or interest of any kind to or in the Trust Account. Accordingly, to liquidate your investment, you may
be forced to sell your public shares, potentially at a loss.
a limited availability of market quotations for our securities;
reduced liquidity for our securities;
a determination that our Class A ordinary shares are a “penny stock” which will require brokers trading in our Class A ordinary shares to adhere to more stringent rules and possibly result in a reduced level of trading activity in the secondary trading market for our securities;
a limited amount of news and analyst coverage; and a decreased ability to issue additional securities or obtain additional financing in the future.
We may seek to enter into a business combination transaction agreement with a minimum cash requirement for (i) cash consideration to be paid to the target or its owners, (ii) cash for working capital or other general corporate purposes or (iii) the retention of cash to satisfy other conditions, such as the payment of expenses incurred in connection with the business combination. In particular, it is a condition to closing under the Business Combination Agreement that the aggregate cash proceeds available for release from the Trust Account (after deducting any amounts paid to our shareholders that exercise their redemption rights in connection with the Proposed Freenome Business Combination), together with the proceeds from the PIPE Financing, less certain of our unpaid expenses, must equal at least $250,000,000. If too many public shareholders exercise their redemption rights, we would not be able to meet such closing condition and, as a result, would not be able to proceed with the business combination. Consequently, if accepting all properly submitted redemption requests would not allow us to satisfy a closing condition as described above, we would not proceed with such redemption and the related business combination and may instead search for an alternate business combination. Prospective targets will be aware of these risks and, thus, may be reluctant to enter into a business combination transaction with us.
At the time we enter into an agreement for our initial business combination, we will not know how many shareholders may exercise their redemption
rights and therefore will need to structure the transaction based on our expectations as to the number of shares that will be submitted for redemption. If a large number of shares are submitted for redemption, we may need to restructure the
transaction to reserve a greater portion of the cash in the Trust Account or arrange for additional third-party financing. Raising additional third-party financing may involve dilutive equity issuances or the incurrence of indebtedness at higher than
desirable levels. Furthermore, this dilution would increase to the extent that the anti-dilution provision of the Class B ordinary shares results in the issuance of Class A ordinary shares on a greater than one-to-one basis upon conversion of the
Class B ordinary shares at the time of our initial business combination. The effect of this dilution will be greater for shareholders who do not redeem. In addition, the amount of the deferred underwriting compensation payable to the underwriter will
not be adjusted for any shares that are redeemed in connection with an initial business combination. We may not be able to generate sufficient value from the completion of our initial business combination in order to overcome the dilutive impact of
these and other factors, and, accordingly, you may incur a net loss on your investment. Please see “—The nominal purchase price paid by our sponsor for the Founder Shares may significantly dilute the implied value of
your public shares in the event we consummate an initial business combination, and our sponsor is likely to make a substantial profit on its investment in us in the event we consummate an initial business combination, even if the business
combination causes the trading price of our Class A ordinary shares to materially decline.” The above considerations may limit our ability to complete the most desirable business combination available to us or optimize our capital structure.
The amount of the deferred underwriting commission payable to the underwriter will not be adjusted for any shares that are redeemed in connection with an initial business combination. The per-share amount we will distribute to shareholders who
properly exercise their redemption rights will not be reduced by the deferred underwriting commission and after such redemptions, the amount held in trust will continue to reflect our obligation to pay the entire deferred underwriting commissions.
WeIf the Proposed Freenome Business Combination is not consummated, we may not be able to consummate an initial business combination within 24 months after the closing of our Initial Public
Offering, in which case we would cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up and we would redeem our Public Shares and liquidate.
WeIf the Proposed Freenome Business Combination is not consummated and is otherwise terminated, we may not be able to find a suitable target business and consummate an initial business combination within 24 months after the closing of our Initial
Public Offering. An increasing number of SPACs have liquidated beginning in the second half of the 2022 due to an inability to complete an initial business combination within their allotted time periods. Our ability to complete our initial business
combination may be negatively impacted by general market conditions, volatility in the capital and debt markets, international tariffs, public health crisescrises, geopolitical tensions or conflicts, and the other risks described herein, including, but not limited to, the war between Russia
and UkraineUkraine, the war in Iran and the Israel-Hamasbroader conflict.conflict and escalating tensions in the Middle East.
Delays in the government budget process or a government shutdown may materially adversely affect our ability to complete our initial business combination, including the Proposed Freenome Business Combination, or the operations of the post-closing company following the business combination
Each year, the U.S. Congress must pass all spending bills in the federal budget. If any such spending bill is not timely passed, a government shutdown will close many federally run operations, which includes those of the SEC, and halt work for federal employees unless they are considered essential. If a government shutdown occurs, and the SEC remains closed for a prolonged period of time, we may not be able to complete our initial business combination, including the Proposed Freenome Business Combination, particularly if the SEC is unable to timely review our filings, or those of a target business or other entity that relate to our initial business combination, or to declare such filings effective to the extent required or as may be applicable. Additionally, following consummation of our initial business combination, including the Proposed Freenome Business Combination, the post-closing company’s operations or its ability to raise additional capital to support its operations could be materially adversely affected by any prolonged government shutdown.
Our registration statement/proxy statement filed for our business combination transaction would disclose the possibility that our Initial Shareholders, advisors and their affiliates may purchase public shares from public shareholders outside the redemption process, along with the purpose of such purchases;
if our Initial Shareholders, advisors and their affiliates were to purchase public shares from public shareholders, they would do so at a price no higher than the price offered through our redemption process;
our registration statement/proxy statement filed for our business combination transaction would include a representation that any of our securities purchased by our Initial Shareholders, advisors and their affiliates would not be voted in favor of approving the business combination transaction;
our Initial Shareholders, advisors and their affiliates would not possess any redemption rights with respect to our securities or, if they do acquire and possess redemption rights, they would waive such rights; and we would disclose in a Form 8-K, before our security holder meeting to approve the business combination transaction, the following material items:
the amount of our securities purchased outside of the redemption offer by our Initial Shareholders, advisors and their affiliates, along with the purchase price;
the purpose of the purchases by our Initial Shareholders, advisors and their affiliates;
the impact, if any, of the purchases by our Initial Shareholders, advisors and their affiliates on the likelihood that the business combination transaction will be approved;
the identities of our security holders who sold to our Initial Shareholders, advisors and their affiliates (if not purchased on the open market) or the nature of our security holders (e.g., 5% security holders) who sold to our Initial Shareholders, advisors and their affiliates; and the number of our securities for which we have received redemption requests pursuant to our redemption offer.
We expect to encounter competition from other entities having a business objective similar to ours, including private investors (which may be individuals or investment partnerships), other blank check companies and other entities, domestic and international, competing for the types of businesses we intend to acquire. Many of these individuals and entities are well-established and have extensive experience in identifying and effecting, directly or indirectly, acquisitions of companies operating in or providing services to various industries. Many of these competitors possess greater technical, human and other resources or more local industry knowledge than we do and our financial resources will be relatively limited when contrasted with those of many of these competitors. While we believe there are numerous target businesses we could potentially acquire with the net proceeds of our Initial Public Offering and the sale of the Private Placement shares, our ability to compete with respect to the acquisition of certain target businesses that are sizable will be limited by our available financial resources. This inherent competitive limitation gives others an advantage in pursuing the acquisition of certain target businesses. Furthermore, we are obligated to offer holders of our public shares the right to redeem their shares for cash at the time of our initial business combination in conjunction with a shareholder vote or via a tender offer. Target companies will be aware that this may reduce the resources available to us for our initial business combination. Any of these obligations may place us at a competitive disadvantage in successfully negotiating a business combination. If we have not consummated our initial business combination (including the Proposed Freenome Business Combination) within the required time period, our public shareholders may receive only approximately $10.00 per public share, or less in certain circumstances, on the liquidation of our Trust Account. See “—If third parties bring claims against us, the proceeds held in the Trust Account could be reduced and the per-share redemption amount received by shareholders may be less than $10.00 per public share” and other risk factors herein.
As of December 31, 2024,2025, we had $1,129,684$865,031 cash held outside the Trust Account to fund our working capital requirements.requirements and a working capital deficit of $1,346,674. We believe that the funds available to us outside of the Trust Account, together with funds available from loans from our sponsor, members of our management team or any of their affiliates (including loans convertible into our Class A ordinary shares on the same terms as the private placement shares) will be sufficient to allow us to operate until we are required to liquidate pursuant to our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association; however, our estimate may not be accurate, and our sponsor, members of our management team or any of their affiliates are under no obligation to advance funds to us in such circumstances. Further, our independent registered public accounting firm’s report included in this Report contains an explanatory paragraph that expresses substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a “going concern.” We expect to use a portion of
the funds available to us to pay fees to consultants to assist us with our search for a target business. We could also use a portion of the funds as a down payment or to fund a “no-shop” provision (a provision in letters of intent designed to keep
target businesses from “shopping” around for transactions with other companies or investors on terms more favorable to such target businesses) with respect to a particular proposed business combination, although we do not have any current intention
to do so. If we entered into a letter of intent where we paid for the right to receive exclusivity from a target business and were subsequently required to forfeit such funds (whether as a result of our breach or otherwise), we might not have
sufficient funds to continue searching for, or conduct due diligence with respect to, a target business.
To the extent we complete our initial business combination with a large complex business or entity with a complex operating structure, we may also be affected by numerous risks inherent in the operations of the business with which we combine, which could delay or prevent us from implementing our strategy. Although our management team will endeavor to evaluate the risks inherent in a particular target business and its operations, including Freenome, we may not be able to properly ascertain or assess all of the significant risk factors until we complete our business combination. If we are not able to achieve our desired operational improvements, or the improvements take longer to implement than anticipated, we may not achieve the gains that we anticipate. Furthermore, some of these risks and complexities may be outside of our control and leave us with no ability to control or reduce the chances that those risks and complexities will adversely impact a target business. Such combination may not be as successful as a combination with a smaller, less complex organization.
If third parties bring claims against us, the proceeds held in the Trust Account could be reduced and the per-share redemption amount received by
shareholders may be less than $10.00 per public share.share (which was the offering price in the Initial Public Offering).

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Recent Developments
Business Combination Agreement
On December 5, 2025, we, StarNet Merger Sub I, Corp., a Delaware corporation and our wholly-owned subsidiary (“Merger Sub I”), StarNet Merger Sub II, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and our wholly-owned subsidiary (“Merger Sub II”), and Freenome, entered into the Business Combination Agreement. The Proposed Freenome Business Combination was unanimously approved by the boards of directors and special committees comprised of independent and disinterested members of the boards of directors of each of the Company and Freenome. The Proposed Freenome Business Combination is expected to close in the first half of 2026, following the receipt of the requisite approvals of the Company shareholders and Freenome stockholders and the fulfillment of other customary closing conditions (the “Closing”).
Subject to the terms and conditions of the Business Combination Agreement, we will de-register from the Register of Companies in the Cayman Islands and transfer by way of continuation from the Cayman Islands to Delaware and domesticate as a Delaware corporation (the “Domestication”) and change our name to Freenome, Inc. (“New Freenome”). Immediately prior to the Domestication, the holders of each issued and outstanding Class B ordinary share will elect to convert their Class B ordinary shares into Class A ordinary shares and immediately prior to the Domestication, the Company will effect the redemption of the Public Shares that are validly submitted for redemption and not withdrawn. In connection with the Domestication, each issued and outstanding Class A ordinary share will be converted into one share of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of New Freenome (the “New Freenome Common Stock”). Following the Domestication, Merger Sub I will merge with and into Freenome, with Freenome as the surviving company in the merger and, after giving effect to such merger, as a wholly-owned subsidiary of New Freenome (the “First Merger”). At the time the First Merger becomes effective (the “Effective Time”): (i) each share of Freenome common stock (collectively, “Freenome Common Shares”) issued and outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (including such shares issued upon the conversion of all shares of Freenome preferred stock into Freenome Common Shares prior to the Effective Time in accordance with the terms of the Business Combination Agreement, but excluding Freenome Common Shares held in treasury or by Freenome stockholders who have properly demanded appraisal of such Freenome Common Shares in accordance with Section 262 of the DGCL) will be automatically canceled and extinguished and converted into the right to receive a number of shares of New Freenome Common Stock based on an exchange ratio, which is based on an implied Freenome base equity value of $725,000,000 and subject to certain adjustments as set forth in the Business Combination Agreement (the “Exchange Ratio”); (ii) each option to purchase Freenome Common Shares (each, a “Freenome Option”), whether vested or unvested, will cease to represent the right to purchase Freenome Common Shares and will be canceled in exchange for options to purchase New Freenome Common Stock under the equity incentive plan to be adopted by PCSC in advance of the Closing (the “New Freenome Equity Incentive Plan”), adjusted for the Exchange Ratio and exercise price, and generally subject to the same terms and conditions (including applicable vesting, expiration and forfeiture provisions) that applied to the corresponding Freenome Option immediately prior to the Effective Time; and (iii) each restricted stock unit award that is outstanding with respect to Freenome Common Shares (each, a “Freenome RSU Award”), whether vested or unvested, will be canceled in exchange for a restricted stock unit award under the New Freenome Equity Incentive Plan that settles in a number of shares of New Freenome Common Stock in an amount and subject to such terms and conditions, in each case, as to be set forth on an allocation schedule, that will generally be subject to the same terms and conditions (including applicable vesting, expiration and forfeiture provisions) that applied to the corresponding Freenome RSU Award immediately prior to the Effective Time.
As part of the same overall transaction as the First Merger, subject to the terms and conditions of the Business Combination Agreement, Freenome, as the surviving corporation of the First Merger, will merge with and into Merger Sub II with Merger Sub II continuing as the surviving company in the merger (the “Second Merger” and together with the First Merger, the “Mergers”).
Sponsor Letter Agreement
Concurrently with the execution of the Business Combination Agreement, we, our sponsor, certain insiders of the Company (“PCSC Insiders”) and Freenome entered into the Sponsor Letter Agreement (the “Sponsor Letter Agreement”), pursuant to which our sponsor and each PCSC Insider, as a holder of Founder Shares has agreed to, among other things, (i) vote in favor of the Business Combination Agreement and the Proposed Freenome Business Combination, (ii) waive any adjustment to the conversion ratio set forth in the governing documents of the Company or any other anti-dilution or similar protection with respect to the Founder Shares (whether resulting from the transactions contemplated by the Subscription Agreements (as defined below) or otherwise), (iii) be bound by certain other covenants and agreements related to the Proposed Freenome Business Combination, (iv) be bound by certain transfer restrictions with respect to his, her or its ordinary shares prior to the Closing, and (v) be subject to the restrictions contemplated by the Lock-Up Agreements (as defined below) in each case, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Sponsor Letter Agreement.
PIPE Financing (Private Placement)
Concurrently with the execution of the Business Combination Agreement, on December 5, 2025, we entered into subscription agreements (the “Subscription Agreements”) with certain qualified institutional buyers, institutional accredited investors, and other accredited investors, including, among others, Perceptive Life Sciences Master Fund Ltd, a fund managed by Perceptive Advisors, an affiliate of our sponsor, as well as certain existing stockholders of Freenome (collectively, the “PIPE Investors”). Pursuant to the Subscription Agreements, the PIPE Investors agreed to subscribe for and purchase, and we agreed to issue and sell to the PIPE Investors, on the date the Closing occurs (the “Closing Date”), an aggregate of 24,000,000 shares of New Freenome Common Stock for a purchase price of $10.00 per share, and aggregate gross proceeds of $240,000,000 (the “PIPE Financing”).
The obligations of each party to consummate the PIPE Financing are conditioned upon, among other things, (i) the New Freenome Common Stock (including the New Freenome Common Stock issuable to the PIPE Investors pursuant to the Subscription Agreements) having been approved for listing on Nasdaq; (ii) satisfaction of all conditions precedent to the Closing ; and (iii) the absence of specified adverse judgements, orders, laws, rules or regulations enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the consummation of the Proposed Freenome Business Combination.
The obligations of the PIPE Investors to consummate the PIPE Financing are further subject to additional conditions, including, among other things: (i) the Business Combination Agreement shall not have been amended, modified, or supplemented, and no condition waived thereunder, in a manner that would reasonably be expected to materially and adversely affect the economic benefits that a PIPE Investor (in its capacity as such) would reasonably expect to receive under the Subscription Agreements; (ii) the material truth and accuracy of our representations and warranties in the Subscription Agreements, subject to customary bringdown standards; (iii) no subscription agreement, or other agreements or understandings (including side letters) entered into in connection with the sale of New Freenome Common Stock under the Subscription Agreements, with any other PIPE Investors shall have been amended, modified, or waived in any manner that benefits such other PIPE Investor unless all PIPE Investors have been offered substantially the same benefits (other than terms particular to the legal or regulatory requirements of such other PIPE Investor or its affiliates or related persons); (iv) all specified consents, waivers or other authorizations and notices, required to be made in connection with the issuance and sale of New Freenome Common Stock under the Subscription Agreements shall have been obtained or made, except where failure to so obtain would not prevent us from consummating the transactions contemplated by the Subscription Agreements; (v) material compliance by us with its covenants, agreements and conditions under the Subscription Agreements; (vi) there has not occurred any Material Adverse Effect or Parent Material Adverse Effect (each as defined in the Business Combination Agreement) since the date of the Subscription Agreements that is continuing.
The Subscription Agreements provide that the Company will grant the Investors certain customary registration rights.
Freenome Transaction Support Agreements and Stockholder Written Consents
Promptly after the signing of the Business Combination Agreement, certain stockholders of Freenome (collectively, the “Freenome Supporting Stockholders”) entered into a Transaction Support Agreement (collectively, the “Transaction Support Agreements”) with us, pursuant to which the Freenome Supporting Stockholders have agreed to, among other things, (a) to vote (i) in favor of the approval and adoption of the Business Combination Agreement and the Proposed Freenome Business Combination, and (ii) against and withhold consent to any alternative acquisition proposal or other matter, action or proposal intended or that would reasonably be expected to result in a breach of any of Freenome’s covenants or obligations under the Business Combination Agreement, result in any breach to the conditions to Closing thereunder and otherwise impede or prevent the consummation of the Proposed Freenome Business Combination, (c) not, directly or indirectly, initiate, encourage or otherwise facilitate an alternative acquisition proposal, and (d) refrain from transferring any covered securities.
Investor Rights Agreement
In connection with the Closing, New Freenome, our sponsor and certain stockholders of Freenome will enter into an investor rights agreement (the “Investor Rights Agreement”). Pursuant to the Investor Rights Agreement, among other things, New Freenome will agree that, within 30 calendar days following the Closing Date, New Freenome will file with the SEC a registration statement registering the resale of certain shares of New Freenome Common Stock held by or issuable to the parties thereto (the “Resale Registration Statement”), and New Freenome will use its commercially reasonable efforts to have the Resale Registration Statement declared effective as soon as reasonably practicable after the filing thereof. Such holders will be entitled to customary piggyback registration rights and demand registration rights, including underwritten demands. The Investor Rights Agreement amends and restates the Registration Rights Agreement.
For the year ended December 31, 2025, we had a net income of $837,468, which consists of interest income on cash and investments held in the Trust Account of $3,821,319, partially offset by unrealized loss on interest earned on cash and marketable securities of $3,298 and operating costs of $2,980,553.
Liquidity andLiquidity, Capital Resources and Going Concern
On June 13, 2024, we consummated theour Initial Public Offering of 8,625,000 Class A ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Public
Shares”), which included the full exercise by the underwriter of the Initial Public Offering (the “underwriter”) of its over-allotment option in the amount of 1,125,000 Class A ordinary shares, at $10.00 per share, generating gross proceeds of
$86,250,000. Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, we consummated the sale of 286,250 Class A ordinary shares to the sponsor at a price of $10.00 per share, generating gross proceeds of $2,862,500.
For the year ended December 31, 2025, cash used in operating activities was $864,653. Net income of $837,468 was affected by interest earned on cash and investments held in the Trust Account of $3,821,319, an unrealized loss on interest earned on cash and investments held in the Trust Account of $3,298, and changes in operating assets and liabilities of $2,115,900.
As of December 31, 2024,2025, we had cash and investments held in the Trust Account of $88,654,397$91,872,418 (including approximately $2,366,001$5,622,418 of interest
investment income and unrealized gain of $38,396) consisting of U.S. Treasury Bills with a maturity of 185 days or less. The Company may withdraw interest earned on the Trust Account for working capital requirements subject to an annual limit of $300,000,
and/or to pay the Company’s taxes (which shall not be subject to the $300,000 annual limitation described in the foregoing) (“Permitted Withdrawals”), divided by the number of the then-outstanding Public Shares.. We intend to use substantially all of
the funds held in the Trust Account, including any amounts representing interest earned on the Trust Account (less income taxes payable), to complete our Business Combination. To the extent that our share capital or debt is used, in whole or in part,
as consideration to complete our 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 December 31, 2025, we had cash of $865,031 and working capital deficit of $1,346,674. The Company does not believe it has sufficient funds for the working capital needs of the Company until a minimum of one year from the date of issuance of these consolidated financial statements.
As of December 31, 2024, we had cash of $1,129,684 and working capital of $1,033,879. We intend to use the funds held outside the Trust Account
primarily to identify and evaluate 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, and structure, negotiate and complete a Business Combination.
In accordance with the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, the Company has 24 months from the date of IPO (“Initial Public Offering”), or until June 13, 2026, to consummate the Initial Business Combination. If a Business Combination is not consummated by the end of the Combination Period, currently June 13, 2026, there will be a mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution of the Company. No adjustments have been made to the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities should the Company be required to liquidate after the Combination Period.
In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with ASC 205-40, “Going Concern,” as of December 31, 2025, management has determined that the liquidity condition and mandatory liquidation, should a Business Combination not occur, and potential subsequent dissolution raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of time within one year after the date that the consolidated financial statements are issued. Management plans to complete the initial Business Combination prior to the mandatory liquidation date and expects to receive financing from the Sponsor or the affiliates of the Sponsor to meet its obligations through the time of liquidation or the completion of the initial Business Combination. There is no financing that is currently committed and no assurance that the Company’s plans to consummate the initial Business Combination will be successful within the Business Combination Period. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
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 Business Combination. Moreover, we may need to obtain additional financing either to complete our Business Combination or because we become obligated to redeem a significant number of our Public Shares upon consummation of our Business
Combination, in which case we may issue additional securities or incur debt in connection with such Business Combination.
Risks and Uncertainties
Results of operations and our ability to complete a Business Combination may be adversely affected by various factors that could cause economic uncertainty and volatility in the financial markets, many of which are beyond its control. Our business of pursuing and consummating a Business Combination could be impacted by, among other things, downturns in the financial markets or in economic conditions, export controls, tariffs, trade wars, inflation, increases in interest rates, supply chain disruptions, declines in consumer confidence and spending, the ongoing effects of geopolitical conflicts, tensions and instability. Some examples include the geopolitical instability resulting from the ongoing Russia-Ukraine conflict, the war in Iran and the broader conflict and escalating tensions in the Middle East. In response to the ongoing Russia-Ukraine conflict, the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (“NATO”) deployed additional military forces to eastern Europe, and the United States, the United Kingdom, the European Union and other countries have announced various sanctions and restrictive actions against Russia, Belarus and related individuals and entities, including the removal of certain financial institutions from the Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication (SWIFT) payment system. Certain countries, including the United States, have also provided and may continue to provide military aid or other assistance to Ukraine and to Israel, increasing geopolitical tensions among a number of nations. The invasion of Ukraine by Russia and the escalation of the Israel-Hamas conflict and the resulting measures that have been taken, and could be taken in the future, by NATO, the United States, the United Kingdom, the European Union, Israel and its neighboring states and other countries have created global security concerns that could have a lasting impact on regional and global economies. We cannot at this time fully predict the likelihood of one or more of the above events, their duration or magnitude or the extent to which they may materially impact our business and our ability to complete a Business Combination.
Further, there have recently been significant changes to international trade policies and tariffs affecting imports and exports. Any significant increases in tariffs on goods or materials or other changes in trade policy could negatively affect the Company’s search for a target and/or the Company’s ability to complete an initial Business Combination. Recently, the United States has implemented a range of new tariffs and increases to existing tariffs. In response to the tariffs announced by the United States, other countries have imposed, are considering imposing, and may in the future impose new or increased tariffs on certain exports from the United States. There is currently significant uncertainty about the future relationship between the United States and other countries with respect to trade policies, taxes, government regulations and tariffs, and the Company cannot predict whether, and to what extent, current tariffs will continue or trade policies will change in the future.
Tariffs, or the threat of tariffs or increased tariffs, could have a significant negative impact on certain businesses (either due to domestic businesses’ reliance on imported goods or dependence on access to foreign markets, or foreign businesses’ reliance on sales into the United States). In addition, retaliatory tariffs could have a significant negative impact on foreign businesses that rely on imports from the United States, and domestic businesses that rely on exporting goods internationally. These tariffs and threats of tariffs and other potential trade policy changes could negatively affect the attractiveness of certain initial Business Combination targets, negatively impact our ability to raise capital in connection with an initial Business Combination or lead to material adverse effects on a post-Business combination company. Among other things, historical financial performance of companies affected by trade policies and/or tariffs may not provide useful guidance as to the future performance of such companies, because future financial performance of those companies may be materially affected by new U.S. tariffs or foreign retaliatory tariffs, or other changes to trade policies. The business prospects of a particular target for a Business Combination could change even after we enter into a business combination agreement, as a result of tariffs or the threat of tariffs that may have a material impact on that target’s business, and it may be costly or impractical for us to terminate that business combination agreement. In addition, investors may be hesitant or unwilling to invest in businesses due to the impact of the tariffs and foreign retaliatory tariffs on the global macroeconomic conditions and the public trading markets. These factors could affect our selection of a Business Combination target.
Any of the above mentioned factors, or any other negative impact on the global economy, capital markets or other geopolitical conditions resulting from the such factors, could adversely affect our search for an initial Business Combination and any target business with which we may ultimately consummate an initial Business Combination.
Commencing on the date that the Company’s registration statement relating to its Initial Public Offering was declared effective through the earlier
of consummation of an initial Business Combination and the Company’s liquidation, the Company agreed (i) to pay the sponsor for office space, secretarial and administrative services provided to the Company in the amount of $15,000 per month and (ii)
to indemnify the sponsor and its affiliates, including Perceptive Advisors, LLC, from any liability arising with respect to their activities in connection with the Company’s affairs, as described in more details in the Administrative Services and
Indemnification Agreement, a copy of which is filed as an exhibit to this QuarterlyAnnual Report. For the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company incurred and paid $180,000 in fees for these services. For the period from March 22, 2024 (inception) through December 31, 2024 the Company incurred and paid $99,500 in fees for these services.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of consolidated 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 consolidated financial statements, and income and expenses during the
periods reported. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. There are no critical accounting estimates that have been identified. We have identified theduring followingthis critical accounting policies:period.
Class A Ordinary Shares Subject to Possible Redemption
We account for our Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification
(“ASC”) Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” Class A ordinary shares subject to mandatory redemption are classified as a liability instrument and measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable Class A ordinary shares (including Class
A ordinary shares that feature 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) are classified as temporary equity. At all other times,
Class A ordinary shares are classified as shareholders’ equity (deficit). Our Class A ordinary shares feature certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of our control and subject to the occurrence of uncertain future events.
Accordingly, Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption are presented at redemption value as temporary equity, outside of the shareholders’ deficit section of our balance sheet.
Net Income Per Ordinary Share
The Company complies with accounting and disclosure requirements of FASB ASC Topic 260, “Earnings Per Share.” The Company has two classes of
shares, which are referred to as Class A ordinary shares and Class B ordinary shares. Income and losses are shared pro rata between the two classes of shares. This presentation assumes an initial Business Combination as the most likely outcome. The
Company does not have any dilutive instruments. Net income per ordinary share is calculated by dividing the net income by the weighted average shares of ordinary shares outstanding for the respective period.
The Company has two classes of shares: Class A ordinary shares and Class B ordinary shares. Income and losses are shared pro rata between the two
classes of shares. Net income per ordinary share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the periods. Accretion associated with the Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption
is excluded from earnings per share as the redemption value approximates fair value.
Recent Accounting Standards
In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13 - Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of
Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASU 2016-13”). This update requires financial assets measured at amortized cost basis to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. The measurement of expected credit losses is based on relevant
information about past events, including historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of the reported amount. Since June 2016, the FASB issued clarifying updates to the new
standard including changing the effective date for smaller reporting companies. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The Company
adopted ASU 2016-13 on June 13, 2024. The adoption of ASU 2016-13 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. The amendments in
this ASU require disclosures, on an annual and interim basis, of significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating officer decision maker (“CODM”), as well as the aggregate amount of other segment items included in the
reported measure of segment profit or loss. The ASU requires that a public entity disclose the title and position of the CODM and an explanation of how the CODM uses the reported measure(s) of segment profit or loss in assessing segment performance
and deciding how to allocate resources. Public entities will be required to provide all annual disclosures currently required by Topic 280 in interim periods, and entities with a single reportable segment are required to provide all the disclosures
required by the amendments in this ASU and existing segment disclosures in Topic 280. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early
adoption permitted.
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.

In accordance with the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, the Company has 24 months from the date of the Initial Public Offering, or until June 13, 2026, to consummate the Initial Business Combination. AsOn disclosedJune above,10, 2026, the Company's shareholders approved an amendment to the Company's Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association to extend the date by which the Company filedmust theconsummate Proxyan Statementinitial withbusiness thecombination SEC on May 5, 2026, seeking shareholder approval to, among other matters, extend the Combination Period through June 13, 2027. If a Business Combination is not consummated by the end of the Combination Period, currentlyfrom June 13, 2026 (and if the Extension Amendment Proposal is approved,to June 13, 2027), there will be a mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution of the Company.2027.

In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with ASC 205-40, “Going Concern,” as of MarchJune 31,30, 2026, management has determined that the liquidity condition and mandatory liquidation, should a Business Combination not occur, and potential subsequent dissolution raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of time within one year after the date that the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are issued. Management plans to complete the initial Business Combination prior to the mandatory liquidation date and expects to receive financing from the Sponsor or the affiliates of the Sponsor to meet its obligations through the time of liquidation or the completion of the initial Business Combination. There is no financing that is currently committed and no assurance that the Company’s plans to consummate the initial Business Combination will be successful within the Business Combination Period. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
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.

For the three and six months ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026 and 2025, the Company incurred and paid $45,000 and $90,000 in fees for these services.services, respectively.
