Risk Factors
As a smaller reporting company, we are not required to make disclosures under this Item.
Our independent registered public accounting firm’s report contains an explanatory paragraph that expresses substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a “going concern.”
As of December 31, 2025, the Company had cash of $37,174 and a working capital deficit of $382,105. Further, we have incurred and expect to continue to incur significant costs as a public company (for legal, financial reporting, accounting and auditing compliance), as well as expenses in connection with our initial business combination activities. Management’s plans to address any need for additional capital are discussed in “Part II, Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.” We cannot assure you that any efforts to raise capital (if required) or to consummate an initial business combination will be successful. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statement contained elsewhere in this Form 10-K do not include any adjustments that might result from our inability to continue as a going concern.

any any
of interest income from the trust account to pay for income taxes. To the extent that our capital stock is used in whole or in part
as as
consideration to effect our initial business combination, the remaining proceeds held in the Trust Account, as well as any other net

research and development of existing or new products. Such funds could also be used to repay any operating expenses or finders’
fees which we had incurred prior to the completion of our business combination if the funds available to us outside of the Trust Account
were insufficient to cover such expenses.
In connection with our assessment
of going concern considerations in accordance with Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-15, “Disclosures of Uncertainties
about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern,” management has determined that if we are unsuccessful in consummating
an initial business combination within the prescribed period of time from the closing of our IPO, the requirement that we cease all operations,
redeem the public shares, and thereafter liquidate and dissolve, raises substantial doubt about the ability to continue as a going concern
through January 15, 2026 (or July 15, 2026, if we extend the period of time to consummate a business combination as provided in our amended
and restated certificate of incorporation), the scheduled liquidation date of the Company if it does not complete a business combination
prior to such date. Management plans to complete a business combination before the mandatory liquidation date. However, there can be no
assurance that we will be able to consummate any business combination by JanuaryApril 15, 2026 (or, if extended, July 15, 2026). The accompanying
audited financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America,
which contemplate the continuation of our Company as a going concern.
The preparation of auditedconsolidated financial statements
statements and related disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management
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 audited financial statements, and income and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results could materially
materially differ from those estimates. As of December 31, 2024,2025, there were no critical accounting policies or estimates.
In August 2020, the Financial
Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2020-06, Debt-Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and
Derivatives and Hedging-Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts
in an Entity’s Own Equity (“ASU 2020-06”), which simplifies accounting for convertible instruments by removing major
separation models required under current GAAP. The ASU also removes certain settlement conditions that are required for equity-linked
contracts to qualify for scope exception, and it simplifies the diluted earnings per share calculation in certain areas. ASU 2020-06 is
effective January 1, 2024 and should be applied on a full or modified retrospective basis, with early adoption permitted beginning on
January 1, 2021. The Company’s management does not believe the adoption of ASU 2020-06 will have a material impact on its financial
statements and disclosures.
In December 2023, the FASB
issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (ASU 2023-09), which requires disclosure of incremental
income tax information within the rate reconciliation and expanded disclosures of income taxes paid, among other disclosure requirements.
ASU 2023-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. The Company’s management
does not believe the adoption of ASU 2023-09 will have a material impact on its financial statements and disclosures.

and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto
contained elsewhere in this Quarterly Report. Certain information contained in the discussion and analysis set forth below includes forward-looking
statements that involve risks and uncertainties.
We have neither engaged in any operations nor
generated any revenue to date. Our only activities from inception to MarchJune 31,30, 2026 were organizational activities, those necessary to
prepare for and conduct the IPO, and since the closing of the IPO, the search for a prospective initial business combination. We will
not generate any operating revenue until after the completion of our initial business combination, at the earliest. We have generated
and will continue to generate non-operating income in the form of interest income on cash in bank and investments held in a trust account
established for the benefit of our public shareholders (the “Trust Account”), from the proceeds derived from the IPO. We incur
expenses as a result of being a public company (for legal, financial reporting, accounting and auditing compliance), as well as for due
diligence expenses.

had a net income of $211,963,$296,620, which consisted of interest earned on investment held in the Trust Account of $380,783,$685,588, offset by formation
and operational costs of $168,820.$388,968.

As of MarchJune 31,30, 2026, we had $9,470$8,695 in our operating
bank account and working capital deficit of approximately $850,925.$1,326,710.
As of MarchJune 31,30, 2026, we had cash of $9,470$8,695 and
marketable securities in the Trust Account of $45,052,492.$18,370,925. We intend to use substantially all of the net proceeds of the IPO, including
the funds held in the Trust Account (less taxes payable and deferred underwriting commissions), to complete our initial business combination.
We may withdraw interest to pay taxes. During the period ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026, we did not withdraw any of interest income from the Trust
Account to pay for income taxes. To the extent that our capital stock is used in whole or in part as consideration to effect our initial
business combination, the remaining proceeds held in the Trust Account, as well as any other net proceeds not expended, will be used as
working capital to finance the operations of the target business. Such working capital funds could be used in a variety of ways including
continuing or expanding the target business’ operations, for strategic acquisitions and for marketing, research and development
of existing or new products. Such funds could also be used to repay any operating expenses or finders’ fees which we had incurred
prior to the completion of our business combination if the funds available to us outside of the Trust Account were insufficient to cover
such expenses.
As of MarchJune 31,30, 2026, we had cash of $9,470$8,695 outside
of the Trust Account. 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.
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 preparation of unaudited condensed 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 unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, and income and expenses during the periods
reported. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. As of MarchJune 31,30, 2026, there were no critical accounting policies
or estimates.
