Item 9A. Controls and Procedures
Item 9A. Controls and Procedures.
Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
29
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Disclosure controls are procedures that are designed with the objective of ensuring that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act, such as this Report, is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time period specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls are also designed with the objective of ensuring that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our management evaluated, with the participation of our current Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer (our “Certifying Officers”), the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of November 30, 2025, pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) under the Exchange Act. Based upon that evaluation, our Certifying Officers concluded that, as of November 30, 2025, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.
We do not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all errors and all instances of fraud. Disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met. Further, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all disclosure controls and procedures, no evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures can provide absolute assurance that we have detected all our control deficiencies and instances of fraud, if any. The design of disclosure controls and procedures also is based partly on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.
Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
As required by SEC rules and regulations implementing Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. 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. Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:
(1)
pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of our company,
(2)
provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors, and
(3)
provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal
control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect errors or misstatements in our financial statements. Also, projections of any
evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions,
or that the degree or compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Management assessed the effectiveness of our internal
control over financial reporting at November 30, 2025. In making these assessments, management used the criteria set forth by the
Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013). Based
on our assessments and those criteria, management determined that we did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting
as of November 30, 2025, due to the material weakness in our internal controls as a result of inadequate segregation of duties within
accounting processes due to limited personnel and insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting, IT, and financial reporting
and record keeping. Management plan to implement remediation steps to improve our internal control over financial reporting. Specifically,
we plan to expand and improve our review process for complex securities and related accounting standards. We plan to further improve this
process by enhancing access to accounting literature, identification of third-party professionals with whom to consult regarding complex
accounting applications and consideration of additional staff with the requisite experience and training to supplement existing accounting
professionals.
This Annual Report on Form 10-K does not include an attestation report of internal controls from our independent registered public accounting firm due to our status as an emerging growth company under the JOBS Act.
30
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Other than as described herein, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Item 9B. Other Information.
During the fourth quarter of 2025, n o n e of our directors or executive officers (as defined in Rule 16a-1(f) under the Exchange Act) has adopted or terminated a Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement or a non-Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement (each as defined in Item 408 of Regulation S-K).
Item 9C. Disclosure Regarding Foreign Jurisdictions that Prevent Inspections.

Director
Kent Louis Kaufman has served as our Chief Executive Officer and a director since November 21, 2023 and has served as our Chairman and Chief Financial Officer since December 4, 2023. Mr. Kaufman has over 30 years of experience in executive leadership, management consulting and executive coaching. He currently serves as the Chief Executive Officer of the Growth and Leadership Center, Inc., a role he has held since 2004. Since March 2020, Mr. Kaufman has served as a managing partner at BEEC Capital, a management and consulting company. He has also been a frequently utilized leadership consultant for Korn Ferry International, a recruiting and human resources consulting company, since 2006.
Throughout his career, Mr. Kaufman has worked with companies and executives at all levels, including chief executive officers, boards of directors and senior management teams. His consulting experience includes work with companies such as NVIDIA, Amazon, Google, Intel, Hewlett Packard, Chevron, Abbott Laboratories, Medtronic, Network Appliance, Barclays, BlackRock, Bank of New York Mellon, Cisco, Northrop Grumman and Apple. From 1991 until 1996, Mr. Kaufman was one of the key leaders who took start-up SportMedia public in an initial public offering, where he served as Director of Product Development. From 1979 until 1991, Mr. Kaufman began his management career at IBM, where he worked as a Materials Scientist and received the Outstanding Innovation Award from IBM. Mr. Kaufman received his Bachelor of Science from the University of Washington and his Master of Science from Stanford University.
We believe that Mr. Kaufman is qualified to serve as a member of our board of directors due to his extensive experience in executive management positions and his routine engagement in financial oversight responsibilities, which has resulted in a high level of financial sophistication.
Jonathan Ginsberg has served as our Chief Operating Officer and a director since April 22, 2024. Mr. Ginsberg is the President of BEEC Inc. (formerly BEEC Capital), an education services and technology company in California that he co-founded in 2016. At BEEC Inc., Mr. Ginsberg leads operations and expansion of student services, with clients across North America, Asia, Oceania and Europe, and oversees the company’s software development department focused on custom learning solutions for schools and institutions. Mr. Ginsberg is also a founding member of BEEC Capital, LLC, an investment and consulting company owned by BEEC Inc.
Mr. Ginsberg also serves as a director of Bodhi Tree Biotechnology Inc., an OTCQB-listed company, as well as a director of NP Life Sciences Healthy Group Inc., another OTCQB-listed company, and a director of their respective subsidiaries. In addition, Mr. Ginsberg has experience in international trade, education and non-profit governance. He is a co-founder and serves as Executive Director of Global Friendship City Association (GFCA), a non-profit organization focused on fostering subnational relationships globally in the areas of commerce, culture and education. Through his work with GFCA, Mr. Ginsberg has helped establish international public-private partnerships across North America, Asia and Africa. Mr. Ginsberg received his Bachelor’s degree in International Studies from Johns Hopkins University.
We believe that Mr. Ginsberg is qualified to serve as a member of our board of directors due to his operational leadership experience, international business background and experience with public companies.
32
Daniel M. McCabe has served as one of our independent directors since March 22, 2024. Mr. McCabe has served as a member of the board of directors of Yotta Acquisition Corporation (Nasdaq: YOTA) since April 2022 and Quetta Acquisition Corporation (Nasdaq: QETA) since August 2023. Mr. McCabe has been admitted to practice law before the courts of the State of Connecticut since 1974. His legal career began as an assistant clerk of the Superior Court at Stamford from 1974 to 1976, and since 1982 he has operated his own legal practice, Daniel McCabe LLC, a general practice law firm in Connecticut. His practice includes advising individuals and business entities on commercial transactions, business organizations and complex litigation matters.
Mr. McCabe is also an Adjunct Professor of Business Law at Sacred Heart University. In addition, he has previously served in a number of public and civic leadership roles, including Chairman of the Stamford Housing Authority, Co-Chair of the Stamford Reapportionment Committee, member of the Board of Parole for the State of Connecticut, Chairman of the Republican Town Committee of the City of Stamford, Counsel for the Stamford Water Pollution Control Authority and Corporation Counsel for the City of Stamford, where he served as chief legal counsel and advisor to the Mayor. Mr. McCabe received his Juris Doctor degree from St. John’s University School of Law in 1974.
We believe that Mr. McCabe is qualified to serve as a member of our board of directors due to his extensive legal experience, public company board service and familiarity with regulatory and governance matters.
Terry W. Proto has served as one of our independent directors since March 22, 2024. Mr. Proto has held leadership roles across the retail, manufacturing and consulting sectors for several decades. Following receipt of a scholarship, Mr. Proto was commissioned in the United States Army, where he rose to the rank of Lieutenant Colonel.
After completing his graduate education, Mr. Proto joined Macy’s, Inc. in 1993, where he advanced through the executive ranks and served as Vice Chairman – Operations and Finance from 1999 until 2005. In 2005, Mr. Proto left Macy’s to become President of Mail Order and Retail, a privately held company based in Portland, Oregon, where he served from January 2005 until November 2016. During his tenure, Mr. Proto oversaw the opening of 52 retail locations and expanded the company’s mail order business to approximately $250 million in annual revenue, prior to the company’s sale to a Nasdaq-listed public company in March 2020.
Mr. Proto also founded an international management consulting business in 2005, providing strategic and operational advisory services to small and mid-sized enterprises in the United States and Southeast Asia. From April 2016 until May 2019, Mr. Proto served as a founding member and Chief Executive Officer and President of Alpine 4 Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: ALPP), a public company focused on diversified manufacturing and technology-driven businesses. Mr. Proto received his business and law degrees from Whitworth University and Gonzaga University, respectively.
We believe that Mr. Proto is qualified to serve as a member of our board of directors due to his extensive executive leadership experience, public company management background and operational expertise.
Number, Terms of Office and Election of Officers and Directors
Our board of directors consists of four directors, three of whom are deemed to be “independent” under SEC and Nasdaq rules. We may not hold an annual meeting of shareholders until after we consummate our initial business combination. Our board of directors will be divided into three classes with only one class of directors being elected in each year and each class (except for those directors appointed prior to our first annual meeting of shareholders) serving a three-year term.
Our officers are appointed by the board of directors and serve at the discretion of the board of directors, rather than for specific terms of office. Our board of directors is authorized to appoint persons to the offices set forth in our Post-offering Memorandum and Articles as it deems appropriate. Our Post-offering Memorandum and Articles provide that our officers may consist of one or more Chairman of the Board, one or more Chief Executive Officers, a President, a Chief Financial Officer, Vice Presidents, Secretary, Treasurer, Assistant Secretary, and such other officers as may be determined by the board of directors.
33
Director Independence
The Nasdaq listing standards require that a majority of our Board of Directors be independent. An “independent director” is defined generally as a person who has no material relationship with the listed company (either directly or as a partner, shareholder or officer of an organization that has a relationship with the company). Our board has determined that each of Mr. McCabe, Mr. Miller, and Mr. Protto are independent directors under applicable SEC and Nasdaq rules. Our independent directors will have regularly scheduled meetings at which only independent directors are present.
Officer and Director Compensation
None of our officers or directors have received any cash compensation for services rendered to us. Commencing on the date that our securities are first listed on Nasdaq through the earlier of consummation of our initial business combination and our liquidation, we will pay an affiliate of our Sponsor a total of $10,000 per month for office space, administrative and support services. Our Sponsor, officers and directors, or any of their respective affiliates, will be reimbursed for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with activities on our behalf such as identifying potential target businesses and performing due diligence on suitable business combinations. Our audit committee will review on a quarterly basis all payments that were made to our Sponsor, officers, directors or our or their affiliates.
After the completion of our initial business combination, directors or members of our management team who remain with us may be paid consulting, management or other fees from the combined company. All of these fees will be fully disclosed to shareholders, to the extent then known, in the tender offer materials or proxy solicitation materials furnished to our shareholders in connection with a proposed business combination. It is unlikely the amount of such compensation will be known at the time such materials are distributed, because the directors of the post-combination business will be responsible for determining officer and director compensation. Any compensation to be paid to our officers will be determined by a compensation committee constituted solely by independent directors.
We do not intend to take any action to ensure that members of our management team maintain their positions with us after the consummation of our initial business combination, although it is possible that some or all of our officers and directors may negotiate employment or consulting arrangements to remain with us after the initial business combination. The existence or terms of any such employment or consulting arrangements to retain their positions with us may influence our management’s motivation in identifying or selecting a target business but we do not believe that the ability of our management to remain with us after the consummation of our initial business combination will be a determining factor in our decision to proceed with any potential business combination. We are not party to any agreements with our officers and directors that provide for benefits upon termination of employment.
Committees of the Board of Directors
Our Board of Directors has two standing committees: an audit committee and a compensation committee. Each committee will operate under a charter that has been approved by our board and will have the composition and responsibilities described below. Subject to phase-in rules and a limited exception, Nasdaq rules and Rule 10A-3 of the Exchange Act require that the audit committee of a listed company be comprised solely of independent directors, and Nasdaq rules require that the compensation committee of a listed company be comprised solely of independent directors.
Audit Committee
We have established an audit committee of the Board of Directors. The members of our audit committee are Daniel M. McCabe and Terry W. Proto, each of whom has been determined by our board of directors to be independent under the applicable rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission and The Nasdaq Stock Market. Mr. McCabe serves as Chairman of the audit committee.
34
Each member of the audit committee is financially literate. Our board of directors has not designated an audit committee financial expert at this time.
We have adopted an audit committee charter, which details the principal functions of the audit committee, including:
●
reviewing and discussing with management and the independent auditor the annual audited financial statements, and recommending to the board whether the audited financial statements should be included in our Form 10-K;
●
discussing with management and the independent auditor significant financial reporting issues and judgments made in connection with the preparation of our financial statements;
●
discussing with management major risk assessment and risk management policies;
●
monitoring the independence of the independent auditor;
●
verifying the rotation of the lead (or coordinating) audit partner having primary responsibility for the audit and the audit partner responsible for reviewing the audit as required by law;
●
reviewing and approving all related-party transactions;
●
inquiring and discussing with management our compliance with applicable laws and regulations;
●
pre-approving all audit services and permitted non-audit services to be performed by our independent auditor, including the fees and terms of the services to be performed;
●
appointing or replacing the independent auditor;
●
determining the compensation and oversight of the work of the independent auditor (including resolution of disagreements between management and the independent auditor regarding financial reporting) for the purpose of preparing or issuing an audit report or related work;
●
establishing procedures for the receipt, retention and treatment of complaints received by us regarding accounting, internal accounting controls or reports which raise material issues regarding our financial statements or accounting policies; and
●
approving reimbursement of expenses incurred by our management team in identifying potential target businesses.
Financial Experts on Audit Committee
In addition, we must certify to Nasdaq that the
Audit Committee has, and will continue to have, at least one member who has past employment experience in finance or accounting, requisite
professional certification in accounting, or other comparable experience or background that results in the individual’s financial
sophistication.
Following the passing of Mr. Brandon Miller,
who previously served as the Company’s audit committee financial expert, the Board of Directors is in the process of identifying
and appointing a new director who will qualify as an “audit committee financial expert,” as defined under the rules and regulations
of the SEC.
35
Compensation Committee
We have established a compensation committee of the Board of Directors. The members of our compensation committee are Daniel M. McCabe and Terry W. Proto, each of whom has been determined by our board of directors to be independent under the applicable rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission and The Nasdaq Stock Market. Mr. McCabe serves as Chairman of the compensation committee. We have adopted a compensation committee charter, which details the principal functions of the compensation committee, including:
●
reviewing and approving on an annual basis the corporate goals and objectives relevant to our Chief Executive Officer’s compensation, evaluating our Chief Executive Officer’s performance in light of such goals and objectives and determining and approving the remuneration (if any) of our Chief Executive Officer’s based on such evaluation;
●
reviewing and approving the compensation of all of our other officers;
●
reviewing our executive compensation policies and plans;
●
implementing and administering our incentive compensation equity-based remuneration plans;
●
assisting management in complying with our proxy statement and annual report disclosure requirements;
●
approving all special perquisites, special cash payments and other special compensation and benefit arrangements for our officers and employees;
●
producing a report on executive compensation to be included in our annual proxy statement; and
●
reviewing, evaluating and recommending changes, if appropriate, to the remuneration for directors.
The charter also provides that the compensation committee may, in its sole discretion, retain or obtain the advice of a compensation consultant, legal counsel or other adviser and will be directly responsible for the appointment, compensation and oversight of the work of any such adviser. However, before engaging or receiving advice from a compensation consultant, external legal counsel or any other adviser, the compensation committee will consider the independence of each such adviser, including the factors required by Nasdaq and the SEC.
Director Nominations
We do not have a standing nominating committee, though we intend to form a corporate governance and nominating committee as and when required to do so by law or Nasdaq rules.
The board of directors will also consider director candidates recommended for nomination by our shareholders during such times as they are seeking proposed nominees to stand for election at a future annual meeting of shareholders (or, if applicable, a special meeting of shareholders). Our shareholders that wish to nominate a director for election to the Board should follow the procedures set forth in our memorandum and articles of association.
We have not formally established any specific, minimum qualifications that must be met or skills that are necessary for directors to possess. In general, in identifying and evaluating nominees for director, the board of directors considers education, professional experience, knowledge of our business, integrity, professional reputation, independence, wisdom, and the ability to represent the best interests of our shareholders.
36
Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation
We may not have a compensation committee in place prior to the completion of our initial business combination. Any executive compensation matters that arise prior to the time we have a compensation committee in place will be determined by our independent directors. None of our directors who currently serve as members of our compensation committee is, or has at any time in the past been, one of our officers or employees. None of our executive officers currently serves, or in the past year has served, as a member of the compensation committee of any other entity that has one or more executive officers serving on our board of directors. None of our executive officers currently serves, or in the past year has served, as a member of the board of directors of any other entity that has one or more executive officers serving on our compensation committee.
Code of Ethics
We have adopted a Code of Ethics applicable to our directors, officers and employees. You will be able to review these documents by accessing our public filings at the SEC’s web site at www.sec.gov . In addition, a copy of the Code of Ethics will be provided without charge upon request from us.
Conflicts of Interest
●
None of our officers and directors is required to commit their full time to our affairs and, accordingly, they may have conflicts of interest in allocating their time among various business activities.
●
In the course of their other business activities, our officers and directors may become aware of investment and business opportunities which may be appropriate for presentation to our company as well as the other entities with which they are affiliated. Our directors and officers may continue to be involved in the formation of other special purpose acquisition companies in the future. Thus, our officers and directors may have conflicts of interest in determining to which entity a particular business opportunity should be presented.
●
Our officers and directors may in the future become affiliated with entities, including other blank check companies, engaged in business activities similar to those intended to be conducted by our company.
●
Unless we consummate our initial business combination, our officers, directors, and other insiders will not receive reimbursement for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred by them to the extent that such expenses exceed the amount of available proceeds not deposited in the trust account.
●
The founder shares beneficially owned by our officers and directors will be released from trust only if our initial business combination is successfully completed. Additionally, if we are unable to complete an initial business combination within the required time frame, our officers and directors will not be entitled to receive any amounts held in the trust account with respect to any of their founder shares or private units. Furthermore, our Sponsor, Black Hawk Management LLC, agreed that the private units will not be sold or transferred by it until we have completed our initial business combination. For the foregoing reasons, our board may have a conflict of interest in determining whether a particular target business is an appropriate business with which to affect our initial business combination.
In general, officers and directors of a company incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands are required to present business opportunities to a company if:
●
the corporation could financially undertake the opportunity;
●
the opportunity is within the corporation’s line of business; and
●
it would not be fair to the corporation and its shareholders for the opportunity not to be brought to the attention of the
corporation.
37
Accordingly, as a result of multiple business affiliations, our officers and directors may have similar legal obligations relating to presenting business opportunities meeting the above-listed criteria to multiple entities. Furthermore, our Post-offering Memorandum and Articles provides that, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, our officers or directors shall have no duty, except to the extent expressly assumed by contract, to refrain from engaging directly or indirectly in the same or similar business activities or lines of business as our company. In order to minimize potential conflicts of interest which may arise from multiple affiliations, our officers and directors (other than our independent directors) have agreed to present to us for our consideration, prior to presentation to any other person or entity, any suitable opportunity to acquire a target business, until the earlier of: (1) our consummation of an initial business combination and (2) up to 21 months from the date of this prospectus (or any other applicable deadline as described in this prospectus). This agreement is, however, subject to any pre-existing fiduciary and contractual obligations such officer or director may from time to time have to another entity. Accordingly, if any of them becomes aware of a business combination opportunity which is suitable for an entity to which he has pre-existing fiduciary or contractual obligations, he will honor his fiduciary or contractual obligations to present such business combination opportunity to such entity, and only present it to us if such entity rejects the opportunity. We do not believe, however, that the pre-existing fiduciary duties or contractual obligations of our officers and directors will materially undermine our ability to complete our business combination because in most cases the affiliated companies are closely held entities controlled by the officer or director or the nature of the affiliated company’s business is such that it is unlikely that a conflict will arise.
The following table summarizes the current material pre-existing fiduciary or contractual obligations of our officers and directors:

Accordingly, if any of the above officers or directors becomes aware of a business combination opportunity which is suitable for any of the above entities to which he or she has then-current fiduciary or contractual obligations, he or she will honor his or her fiduciary or contractual obligations to present such business combination opportunity to such entity, and only present it to us if such entity rejects the opportunity, subject to his or her fiduciary duties under Cayman Islands law.
38
We are not prohibited from pursuing an initial business combination with a company that is affiliated with our Sponsor, officers or directors. In the event we seek to complete our initial business combination with such a company, we, or a committee of independent directors, would obtain an opinion from an independent investment banking firm or another independent firm that commonly renders valuation opinions for the type of company we are seeking to acquire or an independent accounting firm, that such an initial business combination is fair to our Company from a financial point of view.
In the event that we submit our initial business combination to our public shareholders for a vote, our Sponsor, officers and directors have agreed, pursuant to the terms of a letter agreement entered into with us, to vote any Founder Shares held by them (and their permitted transferees will agree) and any Public Shares purchased during or after the IPO in favor of our initial business combination.
Limitation on Liability and Indemnification of Officers and Directors
Cayman Islands law does not limit the extent to which a company’s memorandum and articles of association may provide for indemnification of officers and directors, except to the extent any such provision may be held by the Cayman Islands courts to be contrary to public policy, such as to provide indemnification against willful default, fraud or the consequences of committing a crime. Our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association will provide for indemnification of our officers and directors to the maximum extent permitted by law, including for any liability incurred in their capacities as such, except through their own actual fraud or willful default. We may purchase a policy of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance that insures our officers and directors against the cost of defense, settlement or payment of a judgment in some circumstances and insures us against our obligations to indemnify our officers and directors.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling us pursuant to the foregoing provisions, we have been informed that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.
Item 11. Executive Compensation.
None of our officers or directors have received any cash compensation for services rendered to us. Commencing on the date that our securities are first listed on Nasdaq through the earlier of consummation of our initial business combination and our liquidation, we will pay an affiliate of our Sponsor a total of $10,000 per month for office space, administrative and support services. Our Sponsor, officers and directors, or any of their respective affiliates, will be reimbursed for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with activities on our behalf such as identifying potential target businesses and performing due diligence on suitable business combinations. Our audit committee will review on a quarterly basis all payments that were made to our Sponsor, officers, directors or our or their affiliates.
After the completion of our initial business combination, directors or members of our management team who remain with us may be paid consulting, management or other fees from the combined company. All of these fees will be fully disclosed to shareholders, to the extent then known, in the tender offer materials or proxy solicitation materials furnished to our shareholders in connection with a proposed business combination. It is unlikely the amount of such compensation will be known at the time such materials are distributed, because the directors of the post-combination business will be responsible for determining officer and director compensation. Any compensation to be paid to our officers will be determined by a compensation committee constituted solely by independent directors.
We do not intend to take any action to ensure that members of our management team maintain their positions with us after the consummation of our initial business combination, although it is possible that some or all of our officers and directors may negotiate employment or consulting arrangements to remain with us after the initial business combination. The existence or terms of any such employment or consulting arrangements to retain their positions with us may influence our management’s motivation in identifying or selecting a target business but we do not believe that the ability of our management to remain with us after the consummation of our initial business combination will be a determining factor in our decision to proceed with any potential business combination. We are not party to any agreements with our officers and directors that provide for benefits upon termination of employment.

Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence.
On October 16, 2023, the Company issued 17,250,000 shares of common stock, $0.0001 per share to the Sponsor, the founder shares, for an aggregated consideration of $25,000, or approximately $0.0145 per share. On November 13, 2023, the Company and the Sponsor entered into the First Amendment to the Subscription Agreement, pursuant to which the 17,250,000 shares of common stock were converted to 1,725,000 Class B ordinary shares. On March 20, 2024, the Company and the Sponsor entered into the Second Amendment to the Subscription Agreement, pursuant to which the purchased amount of shares was adjusted to 1,983,750 Class B ordinary shares, $0.0126 par value per ordinary share. In addition, 258,750 of such founder shares were forfeited as the underwriters’ over-allotment option in the Issuer’s initial public offering was not exercised.
On March 22, 2024, the Company consummated its initial public offering (the “IPO”) of 6,900,000 units (the “Units”). Each Unit consists of one ordinary share, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Company (the “Ordinary Shares”) and one-fifth (1/5) of one right to receive one Ordinary Share upon the consummation of the Company’s initial business combination. The Units were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per Unit, generating total gross proceeds of $69,000,000. The Company also granted the underwriters a 45-day option to purchase up to an additional 1,035,000 units to cover over-allotments, if any.
Simultaneously with the consummation of the IPO and the sale of the Units, the Company consummated the private placement (the “Private Placement”) of 235,500 Units (the “Placement Units”), each Placement Unit consisting of one Ordinary Share and one-fifth (1/5) of one right, to the Sponsor at a price of $10.00 per Placement Unit, generating total proceeds of $2,355,000. The issuance of the Placement Units was made pursuant to the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
A total of $69,345,000 of the net proceeds from the IPO and the Private Placement were placed in a U.S.-based trust account established for the benefit of the Company’s public shareholders and maintained by Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, acting as trustee.
On May 13, 2024 the Company announced that holders of the Company’s units could elect to separately trade the ordinary shares and rights included in its units. The ordinary shares and rights are expected to trade on the Nasdaq Global Market (“Nasdaq”) under the symbols “BKHA” and “BKHAR,” respectively. Units not separated will continue to trade on Nasdaq under the symbol “BKHAU.” Holders of units will need to have their brokers contact the Company’s transfer agent, Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Co., in order to separate the holders’ Units into ordinary shares and rights.
As more fully discussed in “Item 10. Directors, Executive Officers and Corporate Governance — Conflicts of Interest,” if any of our officers or directors becomes aware of a business combination opportunity that falls within the line of business of any entity to which he or she has then-current fiduciary or contractual obligations, he or she may be required to present such business combination opportunity to such entity prior to presenting such business combination opportunity to us, subject to his or her fiduciary duties under Cayman Islands law. Our officers and directors currently have certain relevant fiduciary duties or contractual obligations that may take priority over their duties to us.
We entered into an Administrative Services Agreement with our Sponsor pursuant to which we will pay a total of $10,000 per month for office space, administrative and support services to such affiliate. Upon completion of our initial business combination or our liquidation, we will cease paying these monthly fees. Accordingly, in the event the consummation of our initial business combination takes the maximum 15 months (or up to 18 or 21 months, as applicable from the closing of this offering if we extend the period of time to consummate a business combination by the full amount of time), an affiliate of our sponsor will be paid a total of $210,000 ($10,000 per month) for office space, administrative and support services and will be entitled to be reimbursed for any out-of-pocket expenses.
41
Our Sponsor, officers and directors, or any of their respective affiliates, will be reimbursed for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with activities on our behalf such as identifying potential target businesses and performing due diligence on suitable business combinations. Our audit committee will review on a quarterly basis all payments that were made to our Sponsor, officers, directors or our or their affiliates and will determine which expenses and the amount of expenses that will be reimbursed. There is no cap or ceiling on the reimbursement of out-of-pocket expenses incurred by such persons in connection with activities on our behalf.
Pursuant to our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, we may extend the period of time to consummate a business combination up to three times, each by an additional three months (for a total of up to 18 or 21 months to complete a business combination) without submitting such proposed extensions to our shareholders for approval or offering our public shareholders redemption rights in connection therewith. In order to extend the time available for us to consummate our initial business combination, our sponsor or its affiliates or designees, upon ten days advance notice prior to the applicable deadline, must deposit into the trust account $690,000, or up to $793,500 if the underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised in full ($0.10 per unit in either case) on or prior to the date of the applicable deadline, for each three month extension (or up to an aggregate of $1,380,000 (or $1,587,000 if the underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised in full). Our Sponsor and its affiliates or designees are not obligated to fund the trust account to extend the time for us to complete our initial business combination. If we are unable to consummate an initial business combination within such time period, we will redeem 100% of our issued and outstanding public shares for a pro rata portion of the funds held in the trust account, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the trust account including interest earned on the funds held in the trust account and not previously released to us to pay our taxes (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay liquidation and dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then outstanding public shares, subject to applicable law and as further described herein, and then seek to liquidate and dissolve. We expect the pro rata redemption price to be approximately $10.05 per Class A ordinary share (regardless of whether or not the underwriters exercise their over-allotment option), without taking into account any interest earned on such funds.
After our initial business combination, members of our management team who remain with us may be paid consulting, management or other fees from the combined company with any and all amounts being fully disclosed to our shareholders, to the extent then known, in the tender offer or proxy solicitation materials, as applicable, furnished to our shareholders. It is unlikely the amount of such compensation will be known at the time of distribution of such tender offer materials or at the time of a shareholder meeting held to consider our initial business combination, as applicable, as it will be up to the directors of the post-combination business to determine executive and director compensation.
We have entered into a registration rights agreement with respect to the founder shares, representative shares, private placement units, and units that may be issued on conversion of working capital loans (and in each case holders of their component securities, as applicable).
Related Party Policy
We have not yet adopted a formal policy for the review, approval or ratification of related party transactions. Accordingly, the transactions discussed above were not reviewed, approved or ratified in accordance with any such policy.
We have adopted a code of ethics requiring us to avoid, wherever possible, all conflicts of interests, except under guidelines or resolutions approved by our Board of Directors (or the appropriate committee of our board) or as disclosed in our public filings with the SEC. Under our code of ethics, conflict of interest situations will include any financial transaction, arrangement or relationship (including any indebtedness or guarantee of indebtedness) involving the Company. You will be able to review these documents by accessing our public filings at the SEC’s web site at www.sec.gov . In addition, a copy of the Code of Ethics will be provided without charge upon request from us. We intend to disclose any amendments to or waivers of certain provisions of our Code of Ethics in a Current Report on Form 8-K.
42
In addition, our audit committee is responsible for reviewing and approving related party transactions to the extent that we enter into such transactions. An affirmative vote of a majority of the members of the audit committee present at a meeting at which a quorum is present will be required in order to approve a related party transaction. A majority of the members of the entire audit committee will constitute a quorum. Without a meeting, the unanimous written consent of all of the members of the audit committee will be required to approve a related party transaction. A form of the audit committee charter that we have adopted prior to the consummation of this offering is filed as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part. We also require each of our directors and executive officers to complete a directors’ and officers’ questionnaire that elicits information about related party transactions.
These procedures are intended to determine whether any such related party transaction impairs the independence of a director or presents a conflict of interest on the part of a director, employee or officer.
To further minimize conflicts of interest, we have agreed not to consummate an initial business combination with an entity that is affiliated with any of our sponsor, officers or directors unless we, or a committee of independent directors, have obtained an opinion from an independent investment banking firm or another independent firm that commonly renders valuation opinions for the type of company we are seeking to acquire or an independent accounting firm, that our initial business combination is fair to our company from a financial point of view. Furthermore, no finder’s fees, reimbursements or cash payments will be made to our sponsor, officers or directors, or our or their affiliates, for services rendered to us prior to or in connection with the completion of our initial business combination. However, the following payments will be made to our sponsor, officers or directors, or our or their affiliates, none of which will be made from the proceeds of this offering held in the trust account prior to the completion of our initial business combination:
●
Repayment of up to an aggregate of up to $500,000 in loans made to us by our sponsor to cover offering-related and organizational expenses;
●
Payment to an affiliate of our sponsor of $10,000 per month, for up to 15 months (or up to 21 months from the closing of this offering if we extend the period of time to consummate a business combination by the full amount of time), for office space, utilities and secretarial and administrative support; and
●
Reimbursement for any out-of-pocket expenses related to identifying, investigating and completing an initial business combination.
Our audit committee will review on a quarterly basis all payments that were made to our sponsor, officers or directors, or our or their affiliates.
Director Independence
Following the death of Brandon Miller, our Board
currently consists of two directors, Daniel M. McCabe and Terry W. Protto, each of whom has been determined by our Board to be independent
under applicable SEC and Nasdaq rules. Our independent directors hold regularly scheduled meetings at which only independent directors
are present.

Item 14. Principal Accounting Fees and Services.
MaloneBailey, LLP, or “MB”, acts as our independent registered public accounting firm. The following is a summary of fees paid to MB for services rendered.
Audit Fees. Audit fees consist of fees for professional services rendered for the audit of our year-end financial statements and services that are normally provided by MB in connection with regulatory filings. The aggregate fees of MB for professional services rendered for the audit of our annual financial statements, review of the financial information included in our Forms 8-K for the respective periods and other required filings with the SEC totaled $129,780 and $110,000 for the years ended November 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The above amounts include interim procedures and audit fees.
Audit-Related Fees. Audit-related fees consist of fees billed for assurance and related services that are reasonably related to performance of the audit or review of our financial statements and are not reported under “Audit Fees.” These services include attest services that are not required by statute or regulation and consultations concerning financial accounting and reporting standards. We did not pay MB for any audit-related fees for the years ended November 30, 2025 and 2024.
Tax Fees. We did not pay MB for tax return services, planning and tax advice for the years ended November 30, 2025 and 2024.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of
Black Hawk Acquisition Corporation
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated
balance sheets of Black Hawk Acquisition Corporation and its subsidiary (collectively, the “Company”) as of November 30, 2025
and 2024, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in shareholders’ equity (deficit), and cash flows for the
years then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial
statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial positions of the Company as of November 30, 2025 and 2024 and the results
of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America.
Going Concern Matter
The accompanying financial statements
have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As more fully described in Note 1 to the financial statements,
the Company currently lacks the liquidity it needs to sustain operations for a reasonable period of time and the Company’s business
plan is dependent on the completion of a business combination within a prescribed period of time and if not completed will cease all operations
except for the purpose of liquidating which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s
plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result
from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility
of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our
audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”)
and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable
rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance
with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether
the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were
we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding
of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s
internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures
to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that
respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as
evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

BLACK HAWK ACQUISITION CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1 — Description of Organization and Business Operations
Black Hawk Acquisition Corporation (the “Company”) is a blank check company incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands with limited liability on September 28, 2023. The Company was formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities (“Business Combination”). The Company is not limited to a particular industry or sector for purposes of consummating a Business Combination. The Company is an early stage and emerging growth company and, as such, the Company is subject to all of the risks associated with early stage and emerging growth companies.
As of November 30, 2025, the Company had not commenced any operations. All activities through November 30, 2025 are related to the Company’s formation and the initial public offering (“IPO” as defined below), and subsequent to the IPO, identifying a target company for an initial business combination. The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of a Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company will generate non-operating income in the form of interest income from the proceeds derived from the IPO. The Company has selected November 30 as its fiscal year end.
The Company’s sponsor is Black Hawk Management LLC (the “Sponsor”), a Delaware limited liability company.
The registration statement for the Company’s IPO became effective on March 20, 2024. On March 22, 2024, the Company consummated the IPO of 6,900,000 units (which does not include the exercise of the over-allotment option by the underwriters in the IPO) at an offering price of $ 10.00 per unit (the “Public Units’), generating gross proceeds of $ 69,000,000 . Simultaneously with the IPO, the Company sold to its Sponsor 235,500 units at $ 10.00 per unit (the “Private Units”) in a private placement generating total gross proceeds of $ 2,355,000 , which is described in Note 4.
Transaction costs amounted to $ 4,309,493 , consisted of $ 690,000 cash underwriting, $ 2,415,000 deferred underwriting fees (payable only upon completion of a Business Combination), $ 690,000 issuance of representative shares and $ 514,493 other offering costs.
Upon the closing of the IPO and the private placement on March 22, 2024, a total of $ 69,345,000 was placed in a trust account (the “Trust Account”) maintained by Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company as a trustee and will be invested only in U.S. government treasury bills with a maturity of 185 days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), and that invest only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations. These funds will not be released until the earlier of the completion of the initial Business Combination and the liquidation due to the Company’s failure to complete a Business Combination within the applicable period of time. The proceeds deposited in the Trust Account could become subject to the claims of the Company’s creditors, if any, which could have priority over the claims of the Company’s public shareholders. In addition, interest income earned on the funds in the Trust Account may be released to the Company to pay its income or other tax obligations. With these exceptions, expenses incurred by the Company may be paid prior to a business combination only from the net proceeds of the IPO and private placement not held in the Trust Account.
F- 7
Pursuant to Nasdaq listing rules, the Company’s initial Business Combination must occur with one or more target businesses having an aggregate fair market value equal to at least 80% of the value of the funds in the Trust account (excluding any deferred underwriting discounts and commissions and taxes payable on the income earned on the Trust Account), which the Company refers to as the 80 % test, at the time of the execution of a definitive agreement for its initial Business Combination, although the Company may structure a Business Combination with one or more target businesses whose fair market value significantly exceeds 80% of the trust account balance. If the Company is no longer listed on Nasdaq, it will not be required to satisfy the 80% test. The Company will only complete a Business Combination if the post-transaction company owns or acquires 50 % or more of the outstanding voting securities of the target or otherwise acquires a controlling interest in the target sufficient for it not to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act.
The Company will provide its holders of the outstanding Public Shares (the “Public Shareholders”) with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares upon the completion of a Business Combination either (i) in connection with a shareholder meeting called to approve the Business Combination or (ii) by means of a tender offer. The decision as to whether the Company will seek shareholder approval of a Business Combination or conduct a tender offer will be made by the Company, solely in its discretion. The Public Shareholders will be entitled to redeem their Public Shares for a pro rata portion of the amount then in the Trust Account (initially anticipated to be $ 10.00 per Public Share, plus any pro rata interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay its franchise and income tax obligations). The Public Shares subject to redemption will be recorded at a redemption value and classified as temporary equity upon the completion of the Proposed Offering in accordance with the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.”
The Company will proceed with a Business Combination if the Company has net tangible assets of at least $ 5,000,001 upon such consummation of a Business Combination and, if the Company seeks shareholder approval, a majority of the shares voted are voted in favor of the Business Combination. If a shareholder vote is not required by law and the Company does not decide to hold a shareholder vote for business or other legal reasons, the Company will, pursuant to its amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, conduct the redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and file tender offer documents with the SEC prior to completing a Business Combination. If, however, shareholder approval of the transaction is required by law, or the Company decides to obtain shareholder approval for business or legal reasons, the Company will offer to redeem shares in conjunction with a proxy solicitation pursuant to the proxy rules and not pursuant to the tender offer rules. Additionally, each public shareholder may elect to redeem their Public Shares irrespective of whether they vote for or against the proposed transaction. If the Company seeks shareholder approval in connection with a Business Combination, the Company’s Sponsor and any of the Company’s officers or directors that may hold Founder Shares (as defined in Note 5) (the “Initial Shareholders”) and the underwriters have agreed (a) to vote their Founder Shares, Private Shares (as defined in Note 4), Shares issued as underwriting commissions (see Note 6) and any Public Shares purchased during or after the Proposed Public Offering in favor of approving a Business Combination and (b) not to convert any shares (including the Founder Shares) in connection with a shareholder vote to approve, or sell the shares to the Company in any tender offer in connection with, a proposed Business Combination.
If the Company seeks shareholder approval of a Business Combination and it does not conduct redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules, the amended and restated memorandum and articles of association provides that a public shareholder, together with any affiliate of such shareholder or any other person with whom such shareholder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined under Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), will be restricted from redeeming its shares with respect to more than an aggregate of 15% or more of the Public Shares, without the prior consent of the Company.
The Initial Shareholders have agreed (a) to waive their redemption rights with respect to the Founder Shares, Private Shares, and Public Shares held by them in connection with the completion of a Business Combination and (b) not to propose, or vote in favor of, an amendment to the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation that would affect the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to redeem 100% of its Public Shares if the Company does not complete a Business Combination, unless the Company provides the Public Shareholders with the opportunity to redeem their Public Shares in conjunction with any such amendment.
F- 8
The Company will have 15 months (or up to 18 months or up to 21 months if it extends such period) from the closing of the IPO to consummate a Business Combination (the “Combination Period”). If the Company anticipates that that it may not be able to consummate initial business combination within 15 months, the Company’s insiders or their affiliates may, but are not obligated to, extend the period of time to consummate a business combination two times by an additional three months each time (for a total of 21 months to complete a business combination) (the “Combination Period”). In order to extend the time available for the Company to consummate a Business Combination, the Sponsor or its affiliate or designees must deposit into the Trust Account $ 690,000 ($ 0.10 per Public Share) or an aggregate of $ 1,380,000 , on or prior to the date of the applicable deadline.
If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the Company will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem the public shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the trust account including interest (which interest shall be net of taxes payable and less up to $ 100,000 of interest to pay liquidation and dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then outstanding public shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public shareholders’ rights as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidating distributions, if any), subject to applicable law, and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the Company’s remaining shareholders and the Company’s board of directors, dissolve and liquidate, subject in each case to the Company’s obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law.
The Sponsor and the other Initial Shareholders have agreed to waive their liquidation rights with respect to the Founder Shares, and Private Shares if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period. However, if the Sponsor or the other Initial Shareholders acquires Public Shares in or after the IPO, such Public Shares will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period. The underwriters have agreed to waive their rights to their deferred underwriting commission (see Note 6) held in the Trust Account in the event the Company does not complete a Business Combination within in the Combination Period and, in such event, such amounts will be included with the other funds held in the Trust Account that will be available to fund the redemption of the Public Shares. In the event of such distribution, it is possible that the per share value of the assets remaining available for distribution will be less than $10.05.
In order to protect the amounts held in the Trust Account, the Sponsor has agreed to be liable to the Company if and to the extent any claims by a vendor for services rendered or products sold to the Company, or a prospective target business with which the Company has discussed entering into a transaction agreement, reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account to below $10.05 per Public Share, except as to any claims by a third party who executed a valid and enforceable agreement with the Company waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind they may have in or to any monies held in the Trust Account and except as to any claims under the Company’s indemnity of the underwriters of Proposed Public Offering against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). Moreover, in the event that an executed waiver is deemed to be unenforceable against a third party, the Sponsor will not be responsible to the extent of any liability for such third-party claims.
On March 10, 2025, the Company entered into a non-binding letter of intent (the “LOI”) with a business combination target, Vesicor Therapeutics, Inc. (“Vesicor”), regarding a potential business combination (the “Transaction”). Vesicor is a California-based early development stage biotechnology corporation focused on the development of p53-based cancer therapeutics delivered via precision-engineered microvesicles.
On March 15, 2025, the Company and Vesicor executed a subsequent letter of intent with an exclusivity period extending until the last day of April 2025 (the “Exclusive LOI”). Pursuant to the LOI, Vesicor deposited two non-refundable deposits totaling $ 250,000 into the Company’s operating account to cover the costs related to Proposed Transaction.
On April 22, 2025, BH Merger Sub, Inc. (“Merger Sub”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and a Delaware corporation, was formed to be the surviving company after the merger in connection with a contemplated business combination. It has no principal operations or revenue producing activities.
F- 9
Business Combination Agreement
On April 26, 2025, the Company entered into a Business Combination Agreement (the “Business Combination Agreement”) by and among Vesicor and Merger Sub, of which Vesicor shall reincorporate into the State of Delaware so as to migrate to and domesticate as a Delaware corporation on the day that is one (1) Business Day prior to the Closing Date. The Business Combination Agreement provides, among other things, that on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, (i) the Company will de-register in the Cayman Islands and transfer by way of continuation out of the Cayman Islands and into the State of Delaware so as to migrate to and domesticate as a Delaware corporation (the “ Domestication ”), and (ii) following the Domestication, Merger Sub will merge with Vesicor, resulting in Vesicor being the wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, who will continue to be the listed company on the Nasdaq Stock Market and change its name to Vesicor. At the effective time of the Proposed Transaction, Vesicor’s shareholders and management will receive the right to receive a number of shares of Black Hawk’s common stock equal to the consideration ratio as further specified in the Business Combination Agreement. The shares held by certain Vesicor’s shareholders will be subject to lock-up agreements for a period of six (6) months following the closing of the Proposed Transaction, subject to certain exceptions.
The Transaction values Vesicor at a pre-money equity value of $ 70 million. Existing Vesicor shareholders and management will not receive any cash proceeds as part of the transaction and will roll over 100% of their equity into the combined company.
The Transaction, which has been approved unanimously by the boards of directors of both Black Hawk and Vesicor, is subject to regulatory approvals, the approvals by the shareholders of Black Hawk and Vesicor, respectively, and the satisfaction of certain other customary closing conditions including the approval by Nasdaq of the listing application of the combined company. The completion of the Business Combination remains subject to the satisfaction or waiver of customary closing conditions, including the
effectiveness of the Registration Statement on Form S-4 and Nasdaq listing approval. There can be no assurance as to the timing of the
completion of the Business Combination or that it will be completed at all.
2025 Extraordina ry General Meeting
The Company filed its definitive proxy statement on June 10, 2025, announcing its Extraordinary General Meeting would be held on June 20, 2025 to vote on three proposals: (i) a proposal by special resolution to amend the Second Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association to allow the Company to extend the deadline for the Combination Period by up to eighteen (18) one-month extensions, from June 22, 2025 (the “Termination Date”) to December 22, 2026, for a maximum of 36 months from the date of the Company’s initial public offering; (ii) a related proposal by special resolution to amend the Trust Agreement, dated March 20, 2024, by and between Black Hawk and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, to allow for such one-month extensions, with each extension conditioned upon the deposit into the Trust Account of $0.03 per remaining public share (after redemptions) for each month extended;, and (iii) a proposal, by ordinary resolution, to adjourn the Extraordinary General Meeting, to a later date or dates, if necessary, to permit further solicitation and vote of proxies if, based upon the tabulated vote at the time of the Extraordinary General Meeting, there are not sufficient votes to approve the proposals.
On June 20, 2025, the Company held its Extraordinary General Meeting which, without conducting any business was adjourned. The Extraordinary General Meeting was adjourned again on June 23, 2025; June 27, 2025; July 1, 2025; and July 3, 2025 in order to solicit additional votes on the matters listed in the notice of Extraordinary General Meeting and the proxy statement, particularly the Trust Amendment Proposal (further described below).
Also on June 20, 2025, the Company filed a supplemental proxy statement revising the language of the Trust Amendment Proposal. Specifically, the original language referencing deposits of “up to $ 55,000 per one-month extension” was removed and replaced with a new structure. As revised, the proposal allows Black Hawk to extend the Termination Date up to eighteen (18) times, each for an additional one (1) month, from the current Termination Date to December 22, 2026, by depositing into the Trust Account $0.033 per remaining public share (after redemptions) for each monthly extension, in accordance with the Company’s Trust Agreement, dated March 20, 2024, with Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as trustee.
F- 10
On July 7, 2025, the Company filed a supplemental proxy statement further amending the Extension Proposal. The amendment revised the proposed termination date from June 22, 2025 to December 22, 2026, and modified the terms of the Trust Agreement Amendment Proposal. Under the revised terms, the Company may extend the deadline to consummate a business combination by up to eighteen (18) one-month periods, with each extension conditioned upon a deposit of $ 150,000 per month into the Trust Account, in accordance with the Investment Management Trust Agreement, dated March 20, 2024, between the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company.
The Company held its Extraordinary General Meeting on July 8, 2025, at which shareholders approved the Extension Proposal and related amendments to Black Hawk’s governing documents and Trust Agreement. As a result, Black Hawk now has the ability to extend the business combination deadline monthly through December 22, 2026, subject to making the required $ 150,000 monthly deposits into the Trust Account.
In connection with the Extraordinary General Meeting, holders of 4,775,923 public ordinary shares exercised their redemption rights, resulting in a total payment of approximately $ 51.0 million (at approximately $10.68 per share) from the Trust Account. Following the redemptions, approximately $ 22.7 million remains in the Trust Account, and 2,124,077 public ordinary shares remain issued and outstanding.
Extension Payment
In
connection with the Extension, the Sponsor agreed to make Extension Payment following the approval and implementation of the
Extension. Beginning on June 22, 2025 until December 22, 2026, Black Hawk may elect to extend the date by which Black Hawk has to
consummate a business combination month-by-month each time for a total of up to eighteen times by depositing $ 150,000
for each such one-month extension into Black Hawk’s Trust Account. On July 15, 2025, Black Hawk exercised its first extension
by depositing $ 150,000
into the Trust Accou nt to extend the deadline to complete the Business Combination from June 22, 2025 to July 22, 2025. The
Company has exercised monthly extensions beginning June 22, 2025 by depositing $150,000 into the Trust Account for each applicable
extension period. As discussed above, certain extension payments due in December 2025 and January 2026 were funded after their
respective due dates. As of the issuance date of these financial statements, the Company is current with respect to its extension
payments.
Going Concern Consideration
As of November 30, 2025, the Company had $ 39,521 in cash and working capital deficit of $ 1,431,443 . The Company’s liquidity needs prior to the consummation of the IPO had been satisfied through a payment from the Sponsor of $ 25,000 for the Founder Shares and the loan under an unsecured promissory note from the Sponsor of $ 250,000 (see Note 5).
The Company has incurred and expects 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. In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with Financial Accounting Standard Board’s Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-15, “Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern,” management has determined that these conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. In addition, if the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the Company’s board of directors would proceed to commence voluntary liquidation and thereby a formal dissolution of the Company. There is no assurance that the Company’s plans to consummate a Business Combination will be successful within the Combination Period. As a result, management has determined that such additional condition also raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Risks and Uncertainties
Various social and political circumstances in the U.S. and around the world (including rising trade tensions between the U.S. and China, and other uncertainties regarding actual and potential shifts in the U.S. and foreign, trade, economic and other policies with other countries), may contribute to increased market volatility and economic uncertainties or deterioration in the U.S. and worldwide.
F- 11
As a result of these circumstances and the ongoing Russia/Ukraine, Hamas/Israel conflicts and/or other future global conflicts, the Company’s ability to consummate a Business Combination, or the operations of a target business with which the Company ultimately consummates a Business Combination, may be materially and adversely affected. In addition, the Company’s ability to consummate a transaction may be dependent on the ability to raise equity and debt financing which may be impacted by these events, including as a result of increased market volatility, or decreased market liquidity in third-party financing being unavailable on terms acceptable to the Company or at all. The impact of this action and related sanctions on the world economy and the specific impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations and/or ability to consummate a Business Combination are not yet determinable. The unaudited financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these risks and uncertainties.
Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include
the financial statements of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All transactions and balances among the Company and its subsidiaries
have been eliminated upon consolidation.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying audited financial statements are presented in U.S. Dollars and in conformity the U.S. GAAP and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. Accordingly, they include all of the information and footnotes required by the U.S. GAAP. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal accruals) considered for a fair presentation have been included. They should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, as filed with the SEC on February 7, 2025.
Emerging Growth Company
The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”), and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the independent registered public accounting firm attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.
Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of the Company’s financial statements with another public company that is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company that has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.
F- 12
Use of Estimates
In preparing these financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP, the Company’s management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported expenses during the reporting period.
Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. The Company had $ 39,521 and $ 264,842 in cash and none in cash equivalents as of November 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
Investments Held in Trust Account
As of November 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company had $ 23,827,149 and $ 71,829,264 in investment held in the Trust Account comprised of money market funds that invest in U.S. government securities, respectively.
Investments in money market funds are presented on the balance sheets at fair value at the end of each reporting period. Earnings on investments held in the Trust Account are included in interest earned on investments held in the Trust Account in the accompanying statement of operations. The estimated fair value of investments held in the Trust Account is determined using available market information.
Deferred Offering Costs
The Company complies with the requirements of FASB ASC Topic 340-10-S99-1, “Other Assets and Deferred Costs – SEC Materials” (“ASC 340-10-S99”) and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 5A, “Expenses of Offering”. Deferred offering costs were $ 4,309,493 consisting principally of $ 3,795,000 underwriting fees $ 514,493 legal and other expenses that are directly related to the IPO and charged to shareholders’ equity upon the completion of the IPO.
Income Taxes
The Company follows the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes under ASC 740, “Income Taxes.” Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statements carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that is included in the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. ASC 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. There was no unrecognized tax benefits, and no amounts accrued for interest and penalties as of November 30, 2025. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviation from its position.
There is currently no taxation imposed on income by the Government of the Cayman Islands. In accordance with Cayman income tax regulations, income taxes are not levied on the Company. Consequently, income taxes are not reflected in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
F- 13
Net Income (Loss) Per Ordinary Share
The Company complies with the accounting and disclosure requirements of FASB ASC 260, Earnings Per Share. Net income per ordinary is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period, excluding ordinary shares subject to forfeiture by the Initial Shareholders. As of November 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company did not have any dilutive securities and other contracts that could, potentially, be exercised or converted into ordinary shares and then share in the earnings of the Company. As a result, diluted income (loss) per ordinary share is the same as basic income (loss) per ordinary share for the periods presented.
The calculation of diluted income per ordinary
share does not consider the effect of the rights issued in connection with the (i) IPO, and (ii) the private placement, since the issuance
of the shares included in the rights is contingent upon the occurrence of future events. The rights entitle the holder to receive one-fifth
of one ordinary share representing a total of 1,427,100 ordinary shares.

Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of a cash account in a financial institution, which, at times, may exceed the Federal Depository Insurance Coverage of $ 250,000 . The Company has not experienced losses on this account and management believes the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such account as of November 30, 2025 and 2024.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under ASC 825, “Financial Instruments,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the accompanying balance sheet, primarily due to their short-term nature.
Related Party
Parties, which can be a corporation or individual,
are considered to be related if the Company has the ability, directly or indirectly, to control the other party or exercise significant
influence over the other party in making financial and operational decisions. Companies are also considered to be related if they are
subject to common control or common significant influence.
F- 14
Ordinary Shares Subject to Possible Redemption
The Company accounts for its ordinary shares subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in ASC Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” Ordinary shares subject to mandatory redemption (if any) are classified as a liability instrument and are measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable ordinary shares (including ordinary shares that feature redemption rights that is either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the Company’s control) are classified as temporary equity. At all other times, ordinary shares are classified as shareholders’ equity. The Company’s ordinary shares feature certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to the occurrence of uncertain future events. If it is probable that the equity instrument will become redeemable, we have the option to either (i) accrete changes in the redemption value over the period from the date of issuance (or from the date that it becomes probable that the instrument will become redeemable, if later) to the earliest redemption date of the instrument or (ii) recognize changes in the redemption value immediately as they occur and adjust the carrying amount of the instrument to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. The Company has elected to recognize the changes immediately.
Convertible Promissory Notes and Derivative
Liabilities
The Company accounts for convertible promissory
notes under ASC 470 “Debt” and evaluates embedded features under ASC 815 “Derivatives and Hedging”. Sponsor or
affiliate loans may be converted into ordinary shares upon completion of a Business Combination.
If the conversion option has a fixed conversion
price and meets the “own-equity” scope exception in ASC 815-40, the note is accounted for as a single debt instrument. If
the conversion price is variable or indexed to the target company’s equity, the conversion feature is bifurcated and recorded as
a derivative liability, initially measured and subsequently remeasured at fair value each reporting period, with changes recognized in
earnings. The debt host is recorded at the residual amount and amortized to face value using the effective interest method. Convertible
notes and derivative liabilities are classified as current liabilities if settlement or conversion is expected within one year. Fair
value is estimated using the Black-Scholes, Binomial, or Monte Carlo models and is categorized as Level 3 under ASC 820.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.
Note 3 — Initial Public Offering
On March 22, 2024, the Company sold 6,900,000 Units at a price of $ 10.00 per Unit generating gross proceeds of $ 69,000,000 . Each Unit consists of one Class A ordinary share and one-fifth (1/5) of one right (“Public Right”). Each Public Right will convert into one Class A ordinary share upon the consummation of a Business Combination.
Note 4 — Private Placement
Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, the Sponsor purchased an aggregate of 235,500 Private Units at a price of $ 10.00 per Private Unit for an aggregate purchase price of $ 2,355,000 in a private placement. The Private Units are identical to the Public Units except with respect to certain registration rights and transfer restrictions. Each Private Unit will consist of one Class A ordinary share (“Private Share”) and one-fifth (1/5) of one right (“Private Right”). Each Private Right will convert into one Class A ordinary share upon the consummation of a Business Combination. The proceeds from the Private Units will be added to the proceeds from the Proposed Public Offering to be held in the Trust Account. If the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the proceeds from the sale of the Private Units will be used to fund the redemption of the Public Shares (subject to the requirements of applicable law), and the Private Units and all underlying securities will expire worthless.

Note 5 — Related Party Transactions
Founder Shares
On October 16, 2023, the Company issued 17,250,000 shares of Class B ordinary shares, $ 0.0001 per share to the Sponsor (“Founder Shares”), for an aggregated consideration of $ 25,000 , or approximately $ 0.0145 per share. On November 13, 2023, the Company and the Sponsor entered into the First Amendment to the Subscription Agreement, pursuant to which the 17,250,000 shares of common stock were converted to 1,725,000 Class B ordinary shares. On March 18, 2024, the Company elected to convert 1,725,000 Class B ordinary shares into 1,725,000 Class A ordinary shares upon the closing of IPO. On March 20, 2024, the Company and the Sponsor entered into the Second Amendment to the Subscription Agreement, pursuant to which the purchased amount of shares was adjusted to 1,983,750 Class B ordinary shares, $ 0.0126 par value per ordinary share. As of November 30, 2025 and November 30, 2024, there were 1,725,000 Founder Shares issued and outstanding.
The Initial Shareholders have agreed, subject to certain limited exceptions, not to transfer, assign or sell any of their Founder Shares for a time period ending on the date that is the earlier of (A) six months after the completion of the Company’s initial business combination or (B) the date on which we complete a liquidation, merger, stock exchange or other similar transaction after our initial business combination that results in all of the public shareholders having the right to exchange their shares of ordinary shares for cash, securities or other property. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the converted shares of our Class A ordinary shares will be released from the lock-up if (1) the last reported sale price of the Company’s Class A ordinary shares equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock capitalizations, reorganizations, recapitalizations and other similar transactions) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after the initial business combination or (2) if the Company complete a transaction after the initial business combination which results in all of the shareholders having the right to exchange their shares for cash, securities or other property. The Initial Shareholders also agree not to transfer any ownership interest in, except to permitted transferees, their private placement until at least 30 days following the completion of the business combination. However, if after a business combination there is a transaction whereby all the outstanding shares are exchanged or redeemed for cash (as would be the case in a post-asset sale liquidation) or another issuer’s shares, then the Founder Shares or the private placement units (or any shares of ordinary shares thereunder) shall be permitted to participate.
Due from Related Party
The Company reimbursed the Sponsor for its payment of $ 30,900 professional fees to a service provider which is no longer engaged by the Company. The amount was unsecured, interest-free and due on demand, which was offset with the repayment of the Promissory Note on March 25, 2024. As of November 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company had no amount due from related party.
Promissory Note — Related Party
On October 16, 2023, the Sponsor agreed to loan the Company up to an aggregate amount of $ 250,000 to be used, in part, for transaction costs incurred in connection with the Proposed Public Offering (the “Promissory Note”). The Promissory Note is unsecured, interest-free and due on the earlier of: (i) September 30, 2024 or (ii) the date on which the Company closes the IPO. The entire loan amount was repaid by the Company on March 25, 2024. The Company had no borrowings under the Promissory Note as of November 30, 2025 and 2024.
Convertible Notes — Related Party
On June 13, 2025 and September 23, 2025, the Company issued convertible
promissory notes to the Sponsor (the “June Note” and the “September Note,” and collectively, the “Convertible
Notes”), each permitting borrowings of up to $350,000. As of November 30, 2025, the Company had drawn $350,000 under the June Note
and $250,000 under the September Note.
F- 16
The June Note bears interest at 6% per annum and the September Note bears interest at 10% per annum. The Convertible Notes are unsecured and mature on the earlier of (i) the consummation of a business combination or (ii) the Company’s liquidation date, as approved by stockholders. Upon consummation of a business combination, the Sponsor may elect to convert any unpaid principal and accrued interest into ordinary shares of the Company.
The conversion price was defined as the most favorable price per share, conversion rate, or valuation assigned to any equity securities issued by the target company in connection with the DeSPAC transaction to any third party during the thirty-six (36) months preceding conversion. Because the conversion price was variable and based on the valuation of equity securities issued by the target company, the embedded conversion feature did not qualify for the equity scope exception under ASC 815-40. Accordingly, the conversion feature was bifurcated and recorded as a derivative liability at fair value, with changes in fair value recognized in earnings.
On September 30, 2025, the Convertible Notes were
modified such that the conversion feature became convertible solely into the Company’s own ordinary shares at a fixed conversion
price of $1.00 per share, which represents one-tenth (1/10) of the Company’s $10.00 initial public offering price per unit. Following
the modification, the conversion option met the equity scope exception under ASC 815-40, and the Convertible Notes were accounted for
as debt with no further fair value remeasurement.
Upon the modification of the Convertible Notes
on September 30, 2025, the conversion feature was revised such that it met the equity scope exception under ASC 815-40. As a result, the
embedded derivative no longer required separate liability classification. The carrying amount of the derivative liability as of the modification
date was reclassified to additional paid-in capital.
For the year ended November 30, 2025, the Company
recognized changes in fair value of the derivative liability through the date of modification. As of November 30, 2025, there was no derivative
liability outstanding.
As of November 30, 2025, the outstanding
principal balance under the Convertible Notes was $595,369, including unamortized discount of $ 4,538 and accrued interest of $ 15,454 . There was no convertible note outstanding as of November 30, 2024.
June Convertible Note
At issuance, the Company recorded a debt discount of $ 3,244 , representing the fair value of the embedded conversion option.
At September 30, 2025, the derivative liability was measured at $ 3,177 , compared to $ 3,244 at issuance, resulting in a derivative gain of $ 67 recognized in “Change in fair value of derivative liability.” Interest expense of approximately $ 9,838 was incurred and accrued for the year ended November 30, 2025.
The fair value of the conversion feature was estimated
at the as converted value at September 30, 2025 and initial measurement date of June 13, 2025 to be $ 3,177 and $ 3,244 , respectively. The
binomial tree model was used based on the following key assumptions:

At issuance, the Company recorded a debt discount of $ 1,387 , representing the fair value of the embedded conversion option related to the $ 150,000 funded principal amount.
At September 30, 2025, the derivative liability was measured at $ 1,361 , compared to $ 1,386 at issuance, resulting in a non-cash gain of $ 25 recognized in “Change in fair value of derivative liability.” Interest expense of approximately $ 5,616 was incurred and accrued for the year ended November 30, 2025.

Related Party Loans
In addition, in order to finance transaction costs in connection with an intended initial Business Combination, the Initial Shareholders or their affiliates may, but are not obligated to, loan us funds as may be required. If the Company completes an initial Business Combination, it will repay such loaned amounts. In the event that the initial Business Combination does not close, the Company may use a portion of the working capital held outside the Trust Account to repay such loaned amounts but no proceeds from the Trust Account would be used for such repayment. Certain amount of such loans may be converted into private at $10.00 per share at the option of the lender. As of November 30, 2025 and the Company had no borrowings under the working capital loans.

Administrative Services Agreement
The Company entered into an Administrative Services Agreement with the Sponsor on December 4, 2023, commencing on the effective date of the registration statement of IPO through the later of the Company’s consummation of a Business Combination or 21 months from such effective date, to pay the Sponsor a total of $ 10,000 per month for office space and administrative and support services. The Company incurred and paid to the Sponsor $ 120,000 and $ 83,945 for the year ended November 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively; no amount was outstanding as of November 30, 2025 and 2024.
Note 6 — Commitments and Contingencies
Registration Rights
The holders of the Founder Shares issued and outstanding on the date of this prospectus, as well as the holders of the private units and any shares of the Company’s insiders, officers, directors or their affiliates may be issued in payment of working capital loans and extension loans made to the Company (and any shares of ordinary shares issuable upon conversion of the underlying the private rights), will be entitled to registration rights pursuant to an agreement to be signed prior to or on the effective date of the registration statement. The holders of a majority of these securities are entitled to make up to two demands that we register such securities. The holders of the majority of the Founder Shares can elect to exercise these registration rights at any time commencing three months prior to the date on which these shares of ordinary shares are to be released from trust. The holders of a majority of the private units and units issued in payment of working capital loans made to us can elect to exercise these registration rights at any time commencing on the date that the Company consummate an initial business combination. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to the consummation of an initial business combination. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.
Right of First Refusal
The Company has granted EF Hutton for a period of 18 months after the date of the consummation of the Company’s Business Combination, an irrevocable right of first refusal to act as lead left book-running managing underwriter or lead left placement agent with at least 50% of the economics; or, in the case of a three-handed deal, 40% of the economics, for any and all future public and private equity, convertible and debt offerings.
Underwriting Agreement
The Company granted EF Hutton, the representative of the underwriters, a 45-day option from March 22, 2024, to purchase up to 1,035,000 additional Units to cover over-allotments, if any, at the IPO price less the underwriting discounts and commissions. The over-allotment option is deemed to be a freestanding financial instrument indexed on the contingently redeemable shares and is accounted for as a liability pursuant to ASC 480. The value of the over-allotment option was estimated to be $ 93,150 as of March 22, 2024. The underwriters did not excise the over-allotment option, as such, there was no liability accrued on the balance sheet as of November 30, 2025.
The underwriters were paid a cash underwriting discount of 1.0% of the gross proceeds of the IPO or $ 690,000 . In addition, the underwriters will be entitled to a deferred fee of 3.5% of the gross proceeds of the IPO or $ 2,415,000 will be paid upon the closing of a Business Combination from the amounts held in the Trust Account, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement.
Additionally, the Company issued the underwriters 69,000 shares of Class A ordinary shares for the representative shares, at the closing of the IPO as part of representative compensation on March 22, 2024.

Note 7 — Shareholders’ Deficit
Ordinary Shares — The Company is authorized to issue up to 450,000,000 Class A ordinary shares and 50,000,000 Class B ordinary shares, par value $ 0.0001 per share. Holders of Class A ordinary shares and holders of Class B ordinary shares are entitled to one vote for each share held on all matters to be voted on by the shareholders, except as required by law; provided that, prior to the initial Business Combination, only holders of our Class B ordinary shares will have the right to vote on the appointment of directors, and holders of a majority of the Class B ordinary shares may remove a member of the board of directors. With respect to any other matter submitted to a vote of the Company’s shareholders, including any vote in connection with the initial Business Combination, except as required by law or the Company’s articles of association, holders of Class A ordinary shares and holders of Class B ordinary shares will vote together as a single class. The Class B ordinary shares held by the Sponsor may convert into Class A ordinary shares at any time at their option, but will automatically convert into Class A ordinary shares upon the completion of the initial Business Combination on a one-for-one basis, subject to adjustments. On March 18, 2024, the Company elected to convert 1,725,000 Class B ordinary shares into 1,725,000 Class A ordinary shares upon the closing of IPO. On March 20, 2024, the Company and the Sponsor entered into the Second Amendment to the Subscription Agreement, pursuant to which the purchased amount of shares was adjusted to 1,983,750 Class B ordinary shares, $ 0.0126 par value per ordinary share. As of November 30, 2025 and 2024, there were 2,029,500 Class A non-redeemable ordinary shares issued and outstanding (excluding 2,124,077 and 6,900,000 Class A ordinary shares subject to redemption as of November 30, 2025 and November 30, 2024, respectively).
Rights — Each holder of a right will receive one share of Class A Ordinary Share upon consummation of a Business Combination, even if the holder of such right redeemed all shares held by it in connection with a Business Combination. No fractional shares will be issued upon conversion of the rights. No additional consideration will be required to be paid by a holder of rights in order to receive its additional shares upon consummation of a Business Combination, as the consideration related thereto has been included in the Unit purchase price paid for by investors in the IPO. If the Company enters into a definitive agreement for a Business Combination in which the Company will not be the surviving entity, the definitive agreement will provide for the holders of rights to receive the same per share consideration the holders of the common stock will receive in the transaction on an as-converted into common stock basis and each holder of a right will be required to affirmatively covert its rights in order to receive one share underlying each right (without paying additional consideration). The shares issuable upon conversion of the rights will be freely tradable (except to the extent held by affiliates of the Company).
If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period and the Company liquidates the funds held in the Trust Account, holders of rights will not receive any of such funds with respect to their rights, nor will they receive any distribution from the Company’s assets held outside of the Trust Account with respect to such rights, and the rights will expire worthless. Further, there are no contractual penalties for failure to deliver securities to the holders of the rights upon consummation of a Business Combination. Additionally, in no event will the Company be required to net cash settle the rights. Accordingly, holders of the rights might not receive the shares of common stock underlying the rights.
Note 8 — Due to Target Company
In connection with the Extension, the
Vesicor agreed to contribute half the Extension Payment. For the year ended November 2025 and 2024, Vesicor contributed $ 575,000
and $ 0 ,
respectively. The amount provided is interest free and will be reimbursed by the surviving company’s common stock upon closing
of the business combination. The loan can be converted at $9.40 per share. If, 180 days after closing, the company’s common stock is trading at $5.00 or lower,
the reimbursement rate will increase to $5.00 per share, with additional ordinary shares issued to compensate the Target for the monetary
value paid.

Note 9 — Fair Value Measurements
The fair value of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities reflects management’s estimate of amounts that the Company would have received in connection with the sale of the assets or paid in connection with the transfer of the liabilities in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In connection with measuring the fair value of its assets and liabilities, the Company seeks to maximize the use of observable inputs (market data obtained from independent sources) and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs (internal assumptions about how market participants would price assets and liabilities). The following fair value hierarchy is used to classify assets and liabilities based on the observable inputs and unobservable inputs used in order to value the assets and liabilities:
Level 1:
Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. An active market for an asset or liability is a market in which transactions for the asset or liability occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.
Level 2:
Observable inputs other than Level 1 inputs. Examples of Level 2 inputs include quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities and quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.
Level 3:
Unobservable inputs based on our assessment of the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.
The following table presents information about the Company’s assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of November 30, 2025 and 2024, and indicate the fair value hierarchy of the valuation inputs the Company utilized to determine such fair value.

Note 10 — Segment Information
ASC Topic 280, “Segment Reporting,” establishes standards for companies to report in their financial statement information about operating segments, products, services, geographic areas, and major customers. Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise for which separate financial information is available that is regularly evaluated by the Company’s chief operating decision maker, or group, in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance.
The Company’s chief operating decision
maker has been identified as the Chief Executive Officer (“CODM”), who reviews the operating results for the Company as
a whole to make decisions about allocating resources and assessing financial performance. Accordingly, management has determined
that the Company only has one operating and reportable segment.
The CODM assesses performance for the single
segment and decides how to allocate resources. The measure of segment assets is reported on the balance sheet as total assets. When evaluating
the Company’s performance and making key decisions regarding resource allocation the CODM reviews several key metrics, which include
the following:
Schedule of segment information

795,510
$
492,131
Interest earned on investments held in Trust Account
$
2,258,631
$
2,484,264
The key measures of segment profit or loss reviewed by the CODM are general and administrative expenses and interest earned on investments held in Trust Account. General and administrative expenses are reviewed and monitored by the CODM to manage and forecast cash to ensure enough capital is available to complete a business combination within the business combination period. The CODM also reviews general and administrative expenses to manage, maintain and enforce all contractual agreements to ensure costs are aligned with all agreements and budget. Interest earned on investments held in Trust Account are reviewed to measure and monitor shareholder value and determine the most effective strategy of investment with the Trust Account funds while maintaining compliance with the trust agreement.
Note 11 — Subsequent Events
The Company evaluated subsequent events and transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date up the date that the financial statement
was issued. Based on the review as further disclosed in the footnotes, management identified the following subsequent event requiring
disclosure in the financial statements.
In December 2025, the Company drew the remaining balance of the September
Convertible Note, totaling $ 100,000 .
Between December 2025 and February 28, 2026, Vesicor contributed a
total of $ 350,000 as extension fees.
On February 12, 2026, the Company issued a
convertible note to the Sponsor in the amount of up to $ 300,000 to
be used for working capital and extension fee purposes (“February 2026 Convertible Note”). The February 2026 Convertible
Note is unsecured with a 10% annual interest rate commencing on February 12, 2025, and continuing for a period of one year. It is
due on the earlier of the date on which the Company consummates a business combination, or the liquidation date as may be approved
by the Company’s stockholders. The February 2026 Convertible Note is convertible solely into the Company’s own ordinary
shares at a fixed conversion price of $1.00 per share, which represents one-tenth (1/10) of the Company’s $10.00 initial
public offering price per unit. As of February 28, 2026, the February 2026 Convertible Note was fully drawn.
In connection with the Extension, the Company was required to deposit
$ 150,000 into the Trust Account for each one-month extension of the Combination Period. The extension payments due on December 22, 2025, January 22, 2026, and February 22, 2026 were funded after their respective due dates. As of the issuance date of these financial statements, the Company
has funded the required extension payments and is current under its amended and restated memorandum and articles of association.
