+Added: we assessed the recoverability of prepaid expenses for forward purchase contract which will be realized as the counterparty sells our
+Added: The evaluation of impairment
+Added: requires significant judgment, particularly in assessing whether the prepaid balance will be fully recovered through future share transactions.
+Added: Key factors considered include:
+Added: (a) our current and expected share price relative to the reference/reset price under the agreement, (b)
+Added: the enforceability of the Forward Purchase Contract, (c) the counterparty’s performance, including whether the counterparty continues

+Added: through equity (additional paid-in capital) rather than cash flows.

+Added: meet the definition of a derivative or financial asset in accordance with ASC 815, rather the upfront payment represents a prepaid asset
+Added: under ASC 340, providing future economic benefit as the underlying shares are sold.
+Added: Accordingly, the upfront payment is recognized as
+Added: a prepaid expense and will be derecognized as the related share transactions occur, with any differences recognized in additional paid-in
+Added: capital in accordance with ASC 505.
