  • The proceeds of $57,500,000 ($10.00 per Public Unit) in the aggregate from the IPO and the Private Placement and sale of the Option Units, were placed in the Trust Account with Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company acting as trustee.
  • For the period from June 13, 2023 (inception) through September 30, 2023, we had a net loss of $5,325, all of which consisted of formation and operating costs.
  • Cash used in operating activities was $4,269.
  • Liquidity and Capital Resources As of September 30,2024, we had $670,352 of cash held outside of the Trust Account, after payment of costs related to the IPO, and available for working capital purposes.
  • Over the next 12 months (assuming a business combination is not consummated prior thereto), we will be using the funds held outside of the Trust Account for identifying and evaluating prospective acquisition candidates, performing business due diligence on prospective target businesses, traveling to and from the offices, plants or similar locations of prospective target businesses, reviewing corporate documents and material agreements of prospective target businesses, selecting the target business to acquire and structuring, negotiating and consummating the business combination.
  • As of September 30, 2024, we had cash of $670,352 and a working capital deficiency of $684,474.
  • We have incurred and expect to continue to incur significant professional costs to remain as a publicly traded company and to incur significant transaction costs in pursuit of the consummation of a business combination.

  • Our management’s plan in addressing this uncertainty is through the working capital loans from our Sponsor or its affiliates.
  • In addition, if we are unable to complete a business combination within the Combination Period, our board of directors would proceed to commence a voluntary liquidation and thereby a formal dissolution of us.
  • There is no assurance that our plans to consummate a business combination will be successful within the Combination Period.
  • As a result, management has determined that such additional conditions also raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

  • ASU 2020-06 eliminates the current models that require separation of beneficial conversion and cash conversion features from convertible instruments and simplifies the derivative scope exception guidance pertaining to equity classification of contracts in an entity’s own equity.
  • The new standard also introduces additional disclosures for convertible debt and free-standing instruments that are indexed to and settled in an entity’s own equity.
  • ASU 2020-06 amends the diluted earnings per share guidance, including the requirement to use the if-converted method for all convertible instruments.
  • 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 adopted ASU 2020-06 as of the inception of the Company.
  • Adoption of the ASU did not impact the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

  • Our internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of our financial statements for external reporting purposes in accordance with GAAP.
