−Removed: and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and income and expenses during the periods reported.
−Removed: Actual results could materially differ from those estimates.
−Removed: We have identified the
−Removed: following critical accounting policies:
−Removed: Class A Common Stock Subject to Possible Redemption
−Removed: We account for our Class A common stock subject to possible conversion in accordance with the guidance in Accounting Standards
−Removed: Codification (ASC) Topic 480 Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity. Shares of Class A common stock subject to mandatory redemption is classified as a liability instrument and measured at fair value.
−Removed: Conditionally
−Removed: redeemable common stock (including common stock that features redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within our control) is classified as
−Removed: temporary equity.
−Removed: At all other times, common stock is classified as stockholders equity.
−Removed: Our Class A common stock features certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of our control and subject to occurrence of uncertain
−Removed: future events.
−Removed: Accordingly, Class A common stock subject to possible redemption is presented at redemption value as temporary equity, outside of the stockholders equity section of our balance sheets.
−Removed: Net Income Per Common Share
−Removed: two-class method in calculating earnings per share.
−Removed: Net income (loss) per common share, basic and diluted for Class A common stock subject to possible redemption is calculated by dividing the interest income earned on the Trust Account, net of
−Removed: applicable taxes, if any, by the weighted average number of shares of Class A common stock subject to possible redemption outstanding for the period.
−Removed: Net income (loss) per common share, basic and diluted for and non-redeemable common stock is
−Removed: calculated by dividing net loss less income attributable to Class A common stock subject to possible redemption, by the weighted average number of shares of non redeemable common stock outstanding for the period presented.
