We are a blank check company incorporated in
the the
Cayman Islands on July 12, 2024 formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, amalgamation, share exchange, asset acquisition,
share purchase,
reorganization or other similar Business Combination with one or more businesses. We intend to effectuate our
Business Combination using
cash derived from the proceeds of the IPOinitial public offering (the “Initial Public Offering”)
and the sale of the private units,units (“Private Placement Units”), our shares, debt or a combination of cash, shares and debt.
We have neither engaged in any operations nor
generated any operating revenues to date. Our only activities from inception through December 31, 20242025 were organizational activities
and those necessary to prepare for the IPO,Initial Public Offering, described below. We do not expect to generate any operating revenues until after the completion
of our initial Business Combination. We expect to generate non-operating income in the form of interest income on marketable securities
held after the IPO.Initial Public Offering. We expect that we will incur increased expenses as a result of being a public company (for legal, financial reporting,
accounting and auditing compliance), as well as for due diligence expenses in connection with searching for, and completing, a Business
Combination.
For the year ended December 31, 2025, we had a net income of $5,306,976, which consisted of interest earned on marketable securities held in Trust Account of $5,674,641 and change on overallotment liability of $221,454, offset by general and administrative costs of $589,119.
Liquidity andLiquidity, Capital Resources and Going Concern
Until the consummation of the IPO,Initial Public Offering, our only source
of liquidity was an initial purchase of Class B ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share, by the Sponsor and loans from the Sponsor,
which were repaid at the closing of the IPO.Initial Public Offering.
On January 31, 2025, in connection with the closing
of the IPO,Initial Public Offering, the underwriters were paid a cash underwriting discount of $0.20 per Unit, or $3,000,000 in the aggregate. In addition, the
underwriters were entitled to a fee of $0.35 per unit, or approximately $5.25 million in the aggregate, payable to the underwriters for
deferred underwriting commissions. The deferred fee will become payable to the underwriters from the amounts held in the Trust Account
solely in the event that the Company completes a Business Combination, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement.
For the year ended December 31, 2025, cash used in operating activities was $577,956. Net income of $5,306,976 was affected by interest earned on marketable securities held in Trust Account of $5,674,641, change on overallotment liability of $221,454, and general and administrative costs through promissory note of $3,208. Changes in operating assets and liabilities provided $7,955 of cash for operating activities.
For the period from July 12, 2024 (inception) through December 31, 2024, cash used in operating activities was $0. Net loss of $157,572 was affected by formation costs paid by Sponsor in exchange for issuance of Class B ordinary shares of $7,817, share-based compensation expense of $81,750 and payment of general and administrative costs through promissory note of $48,992. Changes in operating assets and liabilities provided $19,013 of cash for operating activities.
Following the closing of the IPOInitial Public Offering and the Privateprivate
Placement,placement, a total of $151,050,000 was placed in the Trust Account. We incurred $8,782,919,$8,782,919 of transaction costs, consisting of $3,000,000
of cash underwriting
fee, $5,250,000 of deferred underwriting fee, and $532,919 of other offering costs.
As of December 31, 2025, we had marketable securities held in the Trust Account of $156,724,641 (including $5,674,641 of interest income) consisting of U.S. Treasury Bills with a maturity of 185 days or less. 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 and excluding deferred underwriting commissions, 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 other acquisitions and pursue our growth strategies.
As of December 31, 2025, we had cash of $354,108. 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 order to fund working capital deficiencies
or finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, our Sponsor or an affiliate of our Sponsor or certain of our officers
and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan us funds as may be required. If we complete a Business Combination, we may repay such
loaned amounts out of the proceeds of the Trust Account released to us. In the event that a Business Combination does not close, we may
use a portion of the working capital held outside the Trust Account to repay such loaned amounts, but no proceeds from our Trust Account
would be used for such repayment. Up to $1.5 million of such Working Capital Loans may be converted into units of the post Business
Combination entity at a price of $10.00 per Unit. The units would be identical to the privatePrivate units.Placement Units.
In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-15, “Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern,” the Company lacks the financial resources it needs to sustain operations for a reasonable period of time, which is considered to be one year from the date of the issuance of the financial statements. The Company cannot ensure that its plans to raise capital or to consummate an initial Business Combination will be successful. In addition, Management has determined that if the Company is unable to complete an initial Business Combination within the Combination Period by October 31, 2026, then the Company will cease all operations except for the purpose of liquidating. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management plans to consummate an initial Business Combination prior to the mandatory liquidation date. No adjustments have been made to the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities should the Company be required to liquidate after October 31, 2026.
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.
The underwriters were entitled to an underwriting
discount of $0.20 per unit, or $3.0 million in the aggregate, which was paid upon the closing of the IPO.Initial Public Offering. In addition, the underwriters
were entitled to a fee of $0.35 per unit, or approximately $5.25 million in the aggregate, payable to the underwriters for deferred
underwriting commissions. The deferred fee will become payable to the underwriters from the amounts held in the Trust Account solely in
the event that the Company completes a Business Combination, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement. The deferred underwriting
commissions will be payable to the underwriter upon the closing of the initial Business Combination in two portions, as follows: (i) $0.325
per unit sold in the IPOInitial Public Offering shall be paid to the underwriter in cash and (ii) $0.025 per unit sold in the IPOInitial Public Offering shall be paid to the underwriter
in cash (such amount, the “Allocable Amount”), provided that, after completion of the IPOInitial Public Offering and the underwriters’ receipt
of 100% of the Base Fee, the Company has the right, in its sole discretion, to allocate any portion of the Allocable Amount to any third
parties not participating in the IPOInitial Public Offering (but who are members of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc.) that assists the Company
in consummating its initial Business Combination.
Critical Accounting Estimates and Policies
The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions
that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements, and income and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. We have
not identified anythe following critical accounting policies.estimates.
Class A Ordinary Shares Subject to Possible Redemption
We account for our ordinary shares subject to possible conversion in accordance with the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” Ordinary shares subject to mandatory redemption are classified as a liability instrument and measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable ordinary shares (including 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, ordinary shares are classified as shareholders’ equity. Our ordinary shares feature certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of our control and subject to occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, ordinary shares subject to possible redemption are presented at redemption value as temporary equity, outside of the shareholders’ equity section of our balance sheets.
Recent Accounting Standards
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 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. The Company adopted ASU 2023-07 on January 31, 2025, the date of the Initial Public Offering.
Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.
