  • You should review and consider carefully the risks and uncertainties described in the “Risk Factors” section of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, which includes a more complete discussion of the risks summarized below as well as a discussion of other risks related to our business and an investment in our common shares, as well as our other SEC filings . ● 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.
  • Risks Relating to Our Search for, Consummation of, or Inability to Consummate, a 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.
  • 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.
  • 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, 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.
  • 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 combination, 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.
  • 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, 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.
  • 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.
  • 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 are 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 combination, 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 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.
  • The above considerations may limit our ability to complete the most desirable business combination available to us or optimize our capital structure.
  • If 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.
  • If 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.
  • 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 crises, geopolitical tensions or conflicts, and the other risks described herein, including, but not limited to, the war between Russia and Ukraine, the war in Iran and the broader 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.
  • 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.
  • As of December 31, 2025, we had $865,031 cash held outside the Trust Account to fund our working capital 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.
  • 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.

  • 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.

  • If we have not consummated our initial 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.
  • As of December 31, 2024, we had $1,129,684 cash held outside the Trust Account to fund our working capital requirements.
  • 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.
  • Although our management team will endeavor to evaluate the risks inherent in a particular target business and its operations, we may not be able to properly ascertain or assess all of the significant risk factors until we complete our business combination.
  • 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.
  • Upon redemption of our public shares, if we have not consummated an initial business combination within 24 months from the closing of our Initial Public Offering, or upon the exercise of a redemption right in connection with our initial business combination, we will be required to provide for payment of claims of creditors that were not waived that may be brought against us within the 10 years following redemption.
  • Pursuant to a letter agreement, our sponsor has agreed that it will be liable to us if and to the extent any claims by a third party (excluding our independent registered public accounting firm) for services rendered or products sold to us, or a prospective target business with which we have entered into a written letter of intent, confidentially or other similar agreement or business combination agreement, reduce the amounts in the Trust Account to below the lesser of (i) $10.00 per public share and (ii) the actual amount per share held in the Trust Account as of the date of the liquidation of the Trust Account if less than $10.00 per public share due to reductions in the value of the trust assets, in each case net of the interest that may be withdrawn for permitted withdrawals and, if we decide to liquidate, $100,000 of dissolution expenses, provided that such liability will not apply to any claims by a third party or prospective target business who executed a waiver of any and all rights to seek access to the Trust Account nor will it apply to any claims under our indemnity of the underwriter of our Initial Public Offering against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.
  • Moreover, in the event that an executed waiver is deemed to be unenforceable against a third party, our sponsor will not be responsible to the extent of any liability for such third party claims.
  • However, we have not asked our sponsor to reserve for such indemnification obligations, nor have we independently verified whether our sponsor has sufficient funds to satisfy its indemnity obligations and we believe that our sponsor’s only assets are securities of our company.
  • Our sponsor may not be able to satisfy those obligations.
  • As a result, if any such claims were successfully made against the Trust Account, the funds available for our initial business combination and redemptions could be reduced to less than $10.00 per public share.
  • In such event, we may not be able to complete our initial business combination, and you would receive such lesser amount per share in connection with any redemption of your public shares.
  • None of our officers or directors will indemnify us for claims by third parties including, without limitation, claims by vendors and prospective target businesses.
  • While we currently expect that our independent directors would take legal action on our behalf against our sponsor to enforce its indemnification obligations to us, it is possible that our independent directors in exercising their business judgment and subject to their fiduciary duties may choose not to do so in any particular instance.
  • If, after we distribute the proceeds in the Trust Account to our public shareholders, we file a bankruptcy petition or an involuntary bankruptcy petition is filed against us that is not dismissed, a bankruptcy court may seek to recover such proceeds, and the members of our board of directors may be viewed as having breached their fiduciary duties to our creditors, thereby exposing the members of our board of directors and us to claims of punitive damages.
  • If, after we distribute the proceeds in the Trust Account to our public shareholders, we file a bankruptcy petition or an involuntary bankruptcy petition is filed against us that is not dismissed, any distributions received by shareholders could be viewed under applicable debtor/creditor and/or bankruptcy laws as either a “preferential transfer” or a “fraudulent conveyance.” As a result, a bankruptcy court could seek to recover some or all amounts received by our shareholders.
  • In addition, our board of directors may be viewed as having breached its fiduciary duty to our creditors and/or having acted in bad faith, thereby exposing itself and us to claims of punitive damages, by paying public shareholders from the Trust Account prior to addressing the claims of creditors.
  • If, before distributing the proceeds in the Trust Account to our public shareholders, we file a bankruptcy petition or an involuntary bankruptcy petition is filed against us that is not dismissed, the claims of creditors in such proceeding may have priority over the claims of our shareholders and the per-share amount that would otherwise be received by our shareholders in connection with our liquidation may be reduced.
  • If, before distributing the proceeds in the Trust Account to our public shareholders, we file a bankruptcy petition or an involuntary bankruptcy petition is filed against us that is not dismissed, the proceeds held in the Trust Account could be subject to applicable bankruptcy law, and may be included in our bankruptcy estate and subject to the claims of third parties with priority over the claims of our shareholders.
  • Because we are neither limited to evaluating a target business in a particular industry sector, nor have we selected any specific target businesses with which to pursue our initial business combination, you will be unable to ascertain the merits or risks of any particular target business’s operations.
  • Because we have not yet selected or approached any specific target business with respect to a business combination, there is no basis to evaluate the possible merits or risks of any particular target business’s operations, results of operations, cash flows, liquidity, financial condition or prospects.
