CANTOR EQUITY PARTNERS I, INC.
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS
Note 1—Description of Organization, Business Operations
and Basis of Presentation
Cantor Equity Partners I,
Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated on November 11, 2020 as a Cayman Islands exempted company for the purpose of effecting
a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses
(the “Business Combination”).
Although the Company is
not limited in its search for target businesses to a particular industry or sector for the purpose of consummating the Business Combination,
the Company focused its search on companies operating in the financial services, digital assets, healthcare, real estate services, technology
and software industries. 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 March 31, 2026, the Company had not commenced
operations. All activity through March 31, 2026 relates to the Company’s formation, the initial public offering (the “Initial
Public Offering”) described below, and the Company’s efforts toward locating and completing a suitable Business Combination.
The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of the Business Combination, at the earliest. During the
three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company used the net proceeds derived from the Initial Public Offering and the Private
Placement (as defined below) to generate non-operating income in the form of interest income from an investment in a money market fund
that invests in U.S. government debt securities and classified as cash equivalents. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, the
Company also recognized changes in the fair value of the forward sale securities (as further described below) as other loss.
The Company’s sponsor is Cantor EP Holdings
I, LLC (the “Sponsor”). The registration statement for the Initial Public Offering was declared effective on December 20,
2024. On January 8, 2025, the Company consummated the Initial Public Offering of 20,000,000 Class A ordinary shares, par value $ 0.0001
per share (“Class A ordinary shares” and such Class A ordinary shares issued in the Initial Public Offering, the “Public
Shares”) at a purchase price of $ 10.00 per share, generating gross proceeds of $ 200,000,000 , as described in Note 3.
Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial
Public Offering, the Company consummated the sale of 500,000 Class A ordinary shares (the “Private Placement Shares”) to the
Sponsor, at a purchase price of $ 10.00 per share, in a private placement (the “Private Placement”), generating gross proceeds
of $ 5,000,000 , as described in Note 4.
The net proceeds of the Private Placement were
deposited into the Trust Account (as defined below) and will be used to fund the redemption of the Public Shares subject to the requirements
of applicable law (see Note 4).
Offering costs amounted to approximately $ 4,500,000 ,
consisting of $ 4,100,000 of underwriting fees and approximately $ 400,000 of other costs.
Following the closing of the Initial Public Offering
and the Private Placement on January 8, 2025, an amount of $ 200,000,000 ($ 10.00 per share) from the net proceeds of the Initial Public
Offering and the Private Placement was placed in a trust account (the “Trust Account”) located in the United States with Continental
Stock Transfer & Trust Company (“Continental”) acting as trustee. The funds in the Trust Account were initially held
in an account at J.P. Morgan Chase Bank, N.A., and on January 9, 2025, were transferred to an account at CF Secured, LLC (“CF Secured”),
an affiliate of the Sponsor. The Trust Account may be invested only in U.S. government securities, within the meaning set forth in Section
2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), with a maturity of 185 days or
less or in any open-ended investment company that holds itself out as a money market fund selected by the Company meeting the conditions
of paragraphs (d)(2), (d)(3) and (d)(4) of Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act, or held as cash or cash items (including in demand
deposit accounts) at a bank, as determined by the Company, until the earlier of: (i) the completion of the Business Combination or (ii)
the distribution of the Trust Account, as described below.
Business Combination — The Company’s
management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and the Private
Placement, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be applied generally toward consummating the Business Combination.
There is no assurance that the Company will be able to complete the Business Combination successfully. The Company must complete one or
more Business Combinations having an aggregate fair market value of at least 80 % of the assets held in the Trust Account (excluding taxes
payable on income earned on the Trust Account) at the time of the agreement to enter into the Business Combination. However, the Company
will only complete the 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.
5
The Company will provide the holders of the Public
Shares (the “Public Shareholders”) with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares upon the completion
of the Business Combination either (i) in connection with a shareholders 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 the 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 (which, as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, was $ 10.62 and
$ 10.53 per Public Share, respectively, and for both periods, inclusive of $ 0.15 per redeemed share to be funded pursuant to the Sponsor
Note (as defined below) in the applicable Redemption Event (as defined below)). The Public Shares are recorded at a redemption value and
classified as temporary equity in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards
Codification (“ASC”) 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (“ASC 480”). In such case, the Company
will proceed with the Business Combination if 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 (as may be amended, the “Amended and Restated
Memorandum and Articles”), conduct the redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission
(the “SEC”) and file tender offer documents with the SEC prior to completing the Business Combination. If, however, shareholder
approval of the Business Combination 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 Business Combination, or if they vote at all. If the Company seeks shareholder approval in connection with the Business Combination,
the Sponsor and the Company’s directors and officers have agreed to vote their Founder Shares (as defined in Note 4), their Private
Placement Shares and any Public Shares purchased during or after the Initial Public Offering in favor of the Business Combination (except
that any Public Shares such parties may purchase in compliance with the requirements of Rule 14e-5 under the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), would not be voted in favor of approving the Business Combination). In addition, the
Sponsor and the Company’s directors and officers have agreed to waive their redemption rights with respect to their Founder Shares,
Private Placement Shares and any Public Shares held by them in connection with the completion of the Business Combination.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Amended and
Restated Memorandum and Articles 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 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 Sponsor and the Company’s officers and
directors have agreed not to propose an amendment to the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles (i) that would affect the substance
or timing of the Company’s obligation to allow redemption in connection with the Business Combination or to redeem 100 % of the Public
Shares if the Company does not complete the Business Combination or (ii) with respect to any other provision relating to shareholders’
rights or pre-business combination activity, unless the Company provides the Public Shareholders with the opportunity to redeem their
Public Shares in conjunction with any such amendment.
Business Combination Agreement —
On July 16, 2025, the Company entered into a business combination agreement (the “Business Combination Agreement”), with BSTR
Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Pubco”), BSTR Intermediate, a Cayman Islands exempted company and a wholly owned
subsidiary of Pubco (“CEPO Merger Sub”), BSTR Holdings (Cayman), a Cayman Islands exempted company (the “Seller”),
BSTR Newco, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Seller (“Newco”), PEMS Sub A, Inc.,
a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“CEPO Subsidiary A”), PEMS Sub B, Inc., a Delaware corporation
and a wholly owned subsidiary of CEPO Subsidiary A (“CEPO Subsidiary B”) and PEMS Merger Sub C, Inc., a Delaware corporation
and a wholly owned subsidiary of CEPO Subsidiary B (“Newco Merger Sub”).
Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement,
and subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, upon the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby (the “Closing”),
(a) the Company will merge with and into CEPO Merger Sub, with CEPO Merger Sub continuing as the surviving entity (the “CEPO Merger”),
and with the Company’s shareholders (i) holding Class B ordinary shares, receiving one Class A ordinary share for each Class B ordinary
share held by such shareholder immediately prior to the CEPO Merger, and (ii) receiving one share of Class A common stock, par value $ 0.01
per share, of Pubco (“Pubco Class A Stock”) for each Class A ordinary share held by such shareholder at the time of the CEPO
Merger, and (b) at least two hours after the CEPO Merger, Newco Merger Sub will merge with and into Newco, with Newco continuing as the
surviving company (the “Newco Merger”, and together with the CEPO Merger, the “Mergers”), and with (i) the Seller
receiving shares of Pubco Class A Stock and Class B common stock, par value $ 0.01 per share, of Pubco (“Pubco Class B Stock”
and, together with the Pubco Class A Stock, “Pubco Stock”) in exchange for its membership interests in Newco (the “Newco
Interests”), and (ii) the Newco Equity Investors (as defined below) converting their Newco Interests into non-voting units of Newco
(the “Newco Exchange Interests”), which Newco Exchange Interests will be exchangeable for an equal number of shares of Pubco
Class A Stock or, at Pubco’s election, the cash equivalent. As a result of the Mergers and the other transactions contemplated by
the Business Combination Agreement (the “BSTR Business Combination”), CEPO Merger Sub will become a wholly owned subsidiary
of Pubco, CEPO Subsidiary B will become the managing member of Newco, and Pubco will become a publicly traded company.
6
Concurrently with the execution of the Business
Combination Agreement, the Company and Pubco entered into subscription agreements (the “July Convertible Notes Subscription Agreements”)
with certain investors (the “July Convertible Notes Investors”), pursuant to which the July Convertible Notes Investors have
agreed to purchase, in a private placement, $ 500,000,000 of aggregate principal amount of 1.00 % convertible senior secured notes to be
issued by Pubco (“Convertible Notes”) due five years after the date of the Closing to be issued pursuant to and on the terms
set forth in an indenture (the “Indenture”) in the form attached to the July Convertible Notes Subscription Agreements (the
“Initial Convertible Notes Private Placement”). In addition, Pubco granted the July Convertible Notes Investors options to
purchase (i) additional Convertible Notes in an aggregate principal amount of up to $ 125,000,000 , exercisable within fifteen days following
the date of the July Convertible Notes Subscription Agreements (the “First Convertible Notes Option”), (ii) additional Convertible

set forth in a certificate of designations (the “Certificate of Designations”) in the form attached to the July Preferred
Stock Subscription Agreement (as defined below), exercisable within thirty days following the date of the July Convertible Notes Subscription
Agreements (the “Preferred Stock Option” and, together with the Initial Convertible Notes Private Placement and Convertible
Notes Options, the “July Convertible Notes Private Placement”), in each case, on a pro rata basis based on such July Convertible
Notes Investor’s participation in the Initial Convertible Notes Private Placement. Further, the July Convertible Notes Subscription
Agreements provide that if any July Convertible Notes Investors should elect not to exercise their pro rata share of the First Convertible
Notes Option, Second Convertible Notes Option or Preferred Stock Option, as applicable, such unexercised Convertible Notes Options or
Preferred Stock Option will be offered to and may be exercised by the remaining July Convertible Notes Investors pro rata to their participation
in the July Convertible Notes Private Placement and the First Convertible Notes Option, Second Convertible Notes Option or Preferred Stock
Option, as applicable, until 5:00 p.m. New York time on the Business Day immediately after the expiry of the applicable Convertible Notes

CEPO BTC Equity PIPE”), and (ii) simultaneously therewith, the Company, Pubco and Newco entered into a termination agreement with
such investor in the Newco Private Placement, which terminated the Newco Subscription Agreement with such investor, pursuant to which
such investor had agreed to purchase Newco Class A Interests in exchange for 20 Bitcoin. As a result of the August CEPO BTC Equity PIPE,
the total number of Bitcoin to be contributed by investors at Closing pursuant to the July CEPO BTC Equity PIPE, the Newco Private Placement
and the August CEPO BTC Equity PIPE, remains at 5,021.11 Bitcoin.
Concurrently with the execution of the Business
Combination Agreement, the Company, Pubco and the Sponsor entered into a sponsor support agreement (the “Sponsor Support Agreement”),
pursuant to which, among other things, the Sponsor agreed (i) to vote its Class A ordinary shares and Class B ordinary shares in favor
of the Business Combination Agreement and the BSTR Business Combination and certain other matters to be approved by Company shareholders
in connection with the BSTR Business Combination, (ii) to vote its Class A ordinary shares and Class B ordinary shares against certain
other transactions and matters, (iii) to comply with the restrictions imposed by the letter agreement, dated as of January 6, 2025, by
and among the Company, the Sponsor and the Company’s officers and directors as of such time (the “Insider Letter”),
including the restrictions on transferring and redeeming Class A ordinary shares and Class B ordinary shares in connection with the BSTR
Business Combination, (iv) to waive the anti-dilution rights of the Class B ordinary shares set forth in the Amended and Restated Memorandum
and Articles, (v) to surrender, for no consideration, 50 % of its Founder Shares (as defined in Note 4) immediately prior to, and conditioned
upon, the consummation of the CEPO Merger, and (vi) subject to and conditioned upon the Closing, agree that any loans outstanding from
the Sponsor to the Company shall be repaid either in cash or in Class A ordinary shares at $ 10.00 per share as determined by the Sponsor.
Further, pursuant to the Sponsor Support Agreement,
the Company and the Sponsor agreed that prior to Closing, the Company and the Sponsor will enter into an amendment to the Insider Letter
to (i) extend the transfer and lock-up restrictions applicable to the Founder Shares (as defined in Note 4) pre-Closing so that they also
apply to the shares of Pubco the Sponsor receives in exchange for the Founder Shares in the BSTR Business Combination post-Closing, (ii)
modify the duration of the lock-up applicable to the Founder Shares to be the earlier of (a) the twelve month anniversary of the date
of the Closing and (b) the date on which Pubco consummates a liquidation, merger, capital stock exchange, reorganization or other similar
transaction that results in all of its stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of Pubco Stock for cash, securities or other
property, and (iii) add Pubco as a party.
Certain of the Company’s existing agreements
will be amended or amended and restated in connection with the BSTR Business Combination.
For more information regarding the BSTR Business
Combination, refer to the Company’s filings with the SEC, including the Current Reports on Form 8-K filed by the Company with the
SEC on July 17, 2025, July 22, 2025, August 7, 2025, August 25, 2025, August 28, 2025, March 2, 2026 and March 26, 2026, and the other
filings the Company and Pubco may make from time to time with the SEC.
Forward Sale Securities —
As described above, in connection with the BSTR Business Combination, pursuant to the CEPO BTC Equity PIPE Subscription Agreements, the
CEPO BTC Equity PIPE Investors committed to purchase a certain number of Class A ordinary shares, at $ 10.00 per share, in exchange for
4,176.11 Bitcoin in the aggregate. The Class A ordinary shares to be issued by the Company pursuant to the CEPO BTC Equity PIPE Subscription
Agreements are referred in the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the footnotes as the forward
sale securities.

Failure to Consummate the Business Combination
— The Company has until January 8, 2027, or until such earlier liquidation date as the Company’s board of directors may
approve or such later date as the Company’s shareholders may approve pursuant to the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles
(the “Combination Period”), to consummate the Business Combination. If the Company is unable to complete the Business Combination
by the end of 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 earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and
not previously released to the Company to pay taxes, 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, liquidate and dissolve, 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 Company’s
directors and officers have agreed to waive their liquidation rights from the Trust Account with respect to the Founder Shares and
the Private Placement Shares held by them if the Company fails to complete the Business Combination within the Combination Period.
However, if the Sponsor or any of the Company’s directors and officers acquire Public Shares in or after the Initial Public
Offering, they will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to such Public Shares if the
Company fails to complete the Business Combination within the Combination Period. In the event of such distribution, it is possible
that the per share value of the residual assets remaining available for distribution (including Trust Account assets) will be less
than the initial redemption amount of $ 10.15 per share (inclusive of $ 0.15 per redeemed share to be funded pursuant to the Sponsor
Note). 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 below $ 10.15 per share
(inclusive of $ 0.15 per redeemed share to be funded pursuant to the Sponsor Note). This liability will not apply with respect to any
claims by a third party who executed a waiver of any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies held in the
Trust Account or to any claims under the Company’s indemnity of the underwriters of the Initial 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. The Company will seek to reduce the possibility that the
Sponsor will have to indemnify the Trust Account due to claims of creditors by endeavoring to have all vendors, service providers
(except for the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm and the underwriters of the Initial Public Offering),
prospective target businesses or other entities with which the Company does business, execute agreements with the Company waiving
any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to monies held in the Trust Account.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of both March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025,
the Company had $ 25,000 of cash in its operating account. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company had a working capital
deficit of approximately $ 902,000 and approximately $ 589,000 , respectively. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, approximately
$ 9,374,000 and approximately $ 7,513,000 , respectively, of interest income earned on funds held in the Trust Account was available to pay
taxes, if any.
The Company’s liquidity needs through March
31, 2026 have been satisfied through a contribution of $ 25,000 from the Sponsor in exchange for the issuance of the Founder Shares, a
loan of approximately $ 134,000 from the Sponsor pursuant to a promissory note (the “Pre-IPO Note”), the proceeds from the
sale of the Private Placement Shares not held in the Trust Account and the Sponsor Loan (as defined below). The Company fully repaid the
Pre-IPO Note upon completion of the Initial Public Offering. In addition, in order to finance transaction costs in connection with the
Business Combination, the Sponsor agreed to loan the Company up to $ 1,750,000 to fund the Company’s expenses relating to investigating
and selecting a target business and other working capital requirements after the Initial Public Offering and prior to the Business Combination
(the “Sponsor Loan”), of which approximately $ 770,000 and approximately $ 486,000 has been drawn by the Company as of March
31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. If the Sponsor Loan is insufficient, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor, or certain
of the Company’s officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, provide the Company with Working Capital Loans (as defined
in Note 4). As of both March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company did not have any borrowings under the Working Capital Loans.
Based on the foregoing, management believes that
the Company will have sufficient working capital and borrowing capacity from the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor, or certain of
the Company’s officers and directors, to meet its needs through the earlier of the consummation of the Business Combination or one
year from this filing. Over this time period, the Company will be using these funds for paying existing accounts payable and consummating
the BSTR Business Combination.
Basis of Presentation
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial
statements are presented in U.S. dollars, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America
(“U.S. GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC, and reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal
recurring adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position as of March
31, 2026 and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. Certain information and disclosures normally included
in unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been omitted pursuant to such rules
and regulations. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year or any future period. The unaudited condensed
consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements
and notes thereto for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed by the
Company with the SEC on March 2, 2026.
9
Principles of Consolidation
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial
statements of the Company include its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.
Going Concern
In connection with the Company’s going concern
considerations in accordance with guidance in ASC 205-40 Presentation of Financial Statements–Going Concern , the Company
has until January 8, 2027 to consummate the Business Combination. The Company’s mandatory liquidation date, if the Business Combination
is not consummated, raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These unaudited condensed
consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recovery of the recorded assets or the classification
of the liabilities should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. As discussed above, in the event of a mandatory liquidation,
within ten business days , the Company will 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 earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to
the Company to pay taxes, if any, and including $ 0.15 per redeemed share to be funded pursuant to the Sponsor Note, divided by the number
of then outstanding Public Shares. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the redemption value per Public Share was $ 10.62 and $ 10.53 ,
respectively.
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 auditor attestation requirements
of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, 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 an emerging
growth 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
unaudited condensed consolidated 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.
Note 2—Summary of Significant Accounting
Policies
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the Company’s management to make 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 amounts of revenues and 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. One of the more significant accounting
estimates included in these consolidated financial statements is the determination of the fair value of the forward
sale securities. Such estimates may be subject to change as more current information becomes available, and 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 no cash equivalents in its operating
account as of both March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025. The Company’s assets held in the Trust Account as of March 31, 2026 and
December 31 2025 comprised predominantly of approximately $ 209,374,000 and approximately $ 207,513,000 , respectively, in cash equivalents.
Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject
the Company to concentration of credit risk consist of cash accounts in financial institutions which, at times, may exceed the Federal
Deposit Insurance Corporation maximum coverage limit of $ 250,000 , and cash equivalents held in the Trust Account. For both the three months
ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company has not experienced losses on these accounts and management believes the Company is not exposed
to significant risks on such accounts.
10
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Under ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement (“ASC
820”), “fair value” is defined as the price that would be received for sale of an asset or paid for transfer of a liability,
in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities,
which qualify as financial instruments under ASC 820 approximates the carrying amounts presented in the consolidated balance sheets, primarily
due to their short-term nature, with the exception of the forward sale securities.
Offering Costs Associated with the Initial
Public Offering
Offering costs consisted of legal and other fees
incurred in connection with the preparation for the Initial Public Offering. These costs amounted to approximately $ 4,500,000 and were
charged against the carrying value of the Public Shares upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering.
Forward Sale Securities
The Company accounts for the forward sale securities
as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the specific terms of the CEPO BTC Equity PIPE
Subscription Agreements using applicable authoritative guidance in ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (“ASC
480”) and ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”). The assessment considers whether the forward sale securities
are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and meet all of the
requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the forward sale securities are indexed to the Company’s
own shares. This assessment, which requires the use of professional judgment, is conducted at the time of the execution of the CEPO BTC
Equity PIPE Subscription Agreements and as of each subsequent quarterly period-end date while the forward sale securities are outstanding.
The forward sale securities that do not meet all the criteria for equity classification are required to be recorded at their initial fair
value at the time of the execution of the CEPO BTC Equity PIPE Subscription Agreements and on each balance sheet date thereafter. Changes
in the estimated fair value of the forward sale securities are recognized on the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations
in the period of the change.
The Company accounts for the forward sale securities in
accordance with guidance in ASC 480-10, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity , pursuant to which the
forward sale securities do not meet the criteria for equity classification and must be recorded as liabilities or assets. See Note 7 for
further discussion of the methodology used to determine the fair value of the forward sale securities.
Class A Ordinary Shares Subject to Possible Redemption
The Company accounts for its Class A ordinary
shares subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in ASC 480. Class A ordinary shares subject to mandatory redemption
(if any) are classified as liability instruments and measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable Class A ordinary shares (including
Class A ordinary shares that feature redemption rights that are 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,
Class A ordinary shares are classified as shareholders’ equity. All of the Public 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. Accordingly, as
of both March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, 20,000,000 Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption are presented as temporary
equity outside of the shareholders’ deficit section of the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. The Company recognizes any
subsequent changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and adjusts the carrying value of redeemable Class A ordinary shares
to the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Immediately upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company
recognized the accretion from initial book value to redemption amount value of redeemable Class A ordinary shares. This method would view
the end of the reporting period as if it were also the redemption date for the security. The change in the carrying value of redeemable
Class A ordinary shares also resulted in charges against Additional paid-in capital and Accumulated deficit.
As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the
Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption, as presented in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, are reconciled in
the following table:

Net Income (Loss) Per Ordinary Share
The Company complies with the accounting and disclosure
requirements of ASC 260, Earnings Per Share . Net income (loss) per ordinary share is computed by dividing net income (loss) applicable
to shareholders by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding for the applicable periods. The Company applies the two-class
method in calculating earnings per share and allocates net income (loss) pro rata to Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption,
nonredeemable Class A ordinary shares and Class B ordinary shares. Accretion associated with the redeemable Class A ordinary shares is
excluded from earnings per share as the redemption value approximates fair value.

Income Taxes
Income taxes are accounted for using the asset
and liability method as prescribed under ASC 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”). Deferred tax assets and liabilities are
recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to basis differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing
assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis.
ASC 740 prescribes a recognition threshold that
a tax position is required to meet before being recognized in the financial statements. The Company provides for uncertain tax positions,
based upon management’s assessment of whether a tax benefit is more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by tax authorities.
Management is required to determine whether a tax position is more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by tax authorities,
including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits of the position. Because significant
assumptions are used in determining whether a tax benefit is more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by tax authorities,
actual results may differ from management’s estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
The Company is currently not aware of any issues
under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviation from its position. As of both March 31, 2026 and
December 31, 2025, the Company has not recorded any amounts related to uncertain tax positions.
The Company is considered an exempted Cayman Islands
company and is presently not subject to income taxes or income tax filing requirements in the Cayman Islands or the United States. As
such, the Company recorded no income tax provision for the periods presented.
Segment Reporting
The Company has one reportable segment. See Note 8 — Segment
Information for additional information.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In November 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards
Update (“ASU”) No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures . The guidance
was issued in response to requests from investors for companies to disclose more information about their financial performance at the
segment level. The ASU does not change how a public entity identifies its operating segments, aggregates them or applies the quantitative
thresholds to determine its reportable segments. The standard requires a public entity to disclose significant segment expenses and other
segment items on an annual and interim basis, and to provide in interim periods all disclosures about a reportable segment’s profit
or loss and assets that were previously required annually. Public entities with a single reportable segment are required to provide the
new disclosures and all the disclosures previously required under ASC 280. The Company adopted the standard on the required effective
date for the financial statements issued for the annual reporting periods beginning on January 1, 2024 and applies the guidance for the
interim periods beginning on January 1, 2025. The adoption of the new guidance did not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated
financial statements.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09,
Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures . The standard improves the transparency of income tax disclosures
by requiring consistent categories and greater disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid disaggregated
by jurisdiction. The ASU also includes certain other amendments to improve the effectiveness of income tax disclosures. The Company adopted
the standard on the required effective date for the Company’s consolidated financial statements issued for annual reporting periods
beginning on January 1, 2025. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the footnotes to the Company’s consolidated
financial statements and had no impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In March 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-02,
Codification Improvements—Amendments to Remove References to the Concepts Statements . The Conceptual Framework establishes
concepts that the FASB considers in developing standards. The ASU was issued to remove references to the Conceptual Framework in the Codification.
The FASB noted that references to the Concepts Statements in the Codification could have implied that the Concepts Statements are authoritative.
Also, some of the references removed were to Concepts Statements that are superseded. The Company adopted the standard on the required
effective date beginning on January 1, 2025 using a prospective transition method for all new transactions recognized on or after the
effective date. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
New Accounting Pronouncements
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03,
Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of
Income Statement Expenses . The standard improves financial reporting and responds to investor input that additional expense detail
is fundamental to understanding the performance of an entity, assessing its prospects for future cash flows, and comparing its performance
over time and with that of other entities. The new guidance requires public business entities to disclose in the notes to financial statements
specified information about certain costs and expenses at each interim and annual reporting period. Specified expenses, gains or losses
that are already disclosed under existing U.S. GAAP will be required by the ASU to be included in the disaggregated income statement expense
line item disclosures, and any remaining amounts will need to be described qualitatively. The new guidance will become effective for the
Company’s consolidated financial statements issued for annual reporting periods beginning on January 1, 2027 and interim reporting
periods beginning on January 1, 2028, will require either prospective or retrospective presentation, and early adoption is permitted.
Management is currently evaluating the impact of the new standard on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
In May 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-03, Business
Combinations (Topic 805) and Consolidation (Topic 810): Determining the Accounting Acquirer in the Acquisition of a Variable Interest
Entity . The standard revises current guidance for determining the accounting acquirer for a transaction effected primarily by exchanging
equity interests in which the legal acquiree is a variable interest entity (“VIE”) that meets the definition of a business.
The amendments differ from current U.S. GAAP because, for certain transactions, they replace the requirement that the primary beneficiary
of a VIE is always the acquirer with an assessment that requires an entity to consider the factors to determine which entity is the accounting
acquirer. Under the amendments, acquisition transactions in which the legal acquiree is a VIE will, in more instances, result in the same
accounting outcomes as economically similar transactions in which the legal acquiree is a voting interest entity. The ASU does not change
the accounting for a transaction determined to be a reverse acquisition or a transaction in which the legal acquirer is not a business
and is determined to be the accounting acquiree. The new guidance will become effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning
on January 1, 2027, will require a prospective transition method for business combinations that occur after the initial adoption date,
and early adoption is permitted. Management is currently evaluating the impact of the new standard on the Company’s unaudited condensed
consolidated financial statements.
In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-11, Interim
Reporting (Topic 270): Narrow-Scope Improvements . The guidance clarifies the current interim disclosure requirements and their applicability.
The ASU is intended to address feedback from stakeholders that the current guidance is difficult to navigate. The amendments do not change
the fundamental nature or expand or reduce the disclosure requirements of interim reporting. The ASU creates a comprehensive list of interim
disclosures required under U.S. GAAP and incorporates a disclosure principle that requires disclosures at interim periods when an event
or change that has a material effect on an entity has occurred since the previous year end. The new guidance will become effective for
the Company beginning on January 1, 2028, can be adopted using either a prospective or retrospective method, and early adoption is permitted. Management
is currently evaluating the impact of the new standard on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-12, Codification
Improvements . The guidance clarifies, corrects errors in or makes other improvements to a variety of topics in the Codification that
are intended to make it easier to understand and apply. The amendments apply to all reporting entities in the scope of the affected accounting
guidance. The new guidance will become effective for the Company beginning on January 1, 2027, can be adopted using either a prospective
or retrospective method, and early adoption is permitted. Management is currently evaluating the impact of the new standard on the Company’s
unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

SEC Rule on Climate-Related Disclosures
In March 2024, the SEC adopted final rules relating
to The Enhancement and Standardization of Climate-Related Disclosures for Investors , that would require registrants to provide
climate-related disclosures in a note to their audited financial statements. The disclosures under the final rules would include certain
effects of severe weather events and other natural conditions, including the aggregate amounts and where in the financial statements they
are presented. If carbon offsets or renewable energy credits or certificates (“RECs”) are deemed a material component of the
registrant’s plans to achieve its disclosed climate-related targets, registrants would be required to disclose information about
the offsets and RECs. Registrants would also be required to disclose whether and how (1) exposures to risks and uncertainties associated
with, or known impacts from, severe weather events and other natural conditions and (2) any disclosed climate-related targets or transition
plans materially impacted the estimates and assumptions used in preparing the financial statements. Finally, registrants would be required
to disclose additional contextual information about the above disclosures, including how each financial statement effect was derived and
the accounting policy decisions made to calculate the effects, for the most recently completed fiscal year and, if previously disclosed
or required to be disclosed, for the historical fiscal year for which audited financial statements are included in the filing. In April
2024, the SEC released an order staying the rules pending judicial review of all of the petitions challenging the rules and in March 2025,
the SEC voted to end its defense of the rules. Absent these developments, the rules would have been effective for the Company upon its
registration under the Exchange Act on January 6, 2025 and phased in starting in 2027. Management is continuing to monitor the developments
pertaining to the rules and any resulting potential impacts on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
The Company’s management does not believe
that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on
the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
Note 3—Initial Public Offering
Pursuant to the Initial Public Offering, the Company
sold 20,000,000 Class A ordinary shares at a price of $ 10.00 per share.
Note 4—Related Party Transactions
Founder Shares
In November 2020, the Sponsor purchased 14,375,000
Class B ordinary shares for a purchase price of $ 25,000 . On May 21, 2024, the Sponsor surrendered, for no consideration, 9,375,000 Class
B ordinary shares, which the Company cancelled, resulting in a decrease in the total number of Class B ordinary shares outstanding from
14,375,000 shares to 5,000,000 shares (the “Founder Shares”). The Class B ordinary shares will automatically convert into
nonredeemable Class A ordinary shares in connection with the consummation of the Business Combination and are subject to certain transfer
restrictions, as described in Note 6. Further, pursuant to the Sponsor Support Agreement, solely in connection with the BSTR Business
Combination, subject to and conditioned upon the Closing, the Sponsor agreed to forfeit 2,500,000 Founder Shares immediately prior to
the consummation of the CEPO Merger.
The Sponsor and the Company’s directors
and officers have agreed, subject to limited exceptions, not to transfer, assign or sell any of their Founder Shares until the earlier
to occur of: (A) one year after the completion of the Business Combination or (B) subsequent to the Business Combination, (x) if the last
reported sale price of the Class A ordinary shares equals or exceeds $ 12.00 per share (as adjusted for share sub-divisions, share dividends,
reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 -trading days within any 30 -trading day period commencing at least 150 days
after the Business Combination, or (y) the date on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, share exchange or other similar
transaction that results in all of the Company’s shareholders having the right to exchange their ordinary shares for cash, securities
or other property. Pursuant to the Sponsor Support Agreement, in connection with the Closing, the Company, Pubco and the Sponsor will
enter into an amendment to the transfer restrictions above to remove clause (B)(x) above.
Private Placement Shares
Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial
Public Offering, the Sponsor purchased 500,000 Private Placement Shares at a price of $ 10.00 per share ($ 5,000,000 in the aggregate) in
the Private Placement. The net proceeds from the Private Placement were added to the net proceeds from the Initial Public Offering held
in the Trust Account. The Sponsor has agreed to waive its redemption rights with respect to the Private Placement Shares in connection
with the completion of the Business Combination or otherwise. The Sponsor and the Company’s officers and directors have agreed,
subject to limited exceptions, not to transfer, assign or sell any of their Private Placement Shares until 30 days after the completion
of the Business Combination.

that such fees are reduced with respect to proceeds received from certain investors; and provided further, that the amount of such fee
will be reduced by an amount equal to the product of (a) 3.5 %, (b) $ 10.00 and (c) the number of Public Shares redeemed in connection with
the BSTR Business Combination. No fee is payable to CF&Co. for the proceeds raised pursuant to the CEPO BTC Equity PIPE and the Newco
Private Placement. The Company will also reimburse CF&Co. at the Closing for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses
incurred by CF&Co. in connection with CF&Co. rendering its services under the Private Placement Engagement Letter, the aggregate
amount of which will not exceed $ 40,000 .
Sponsor Support Agreement
On July 16, 2025, the Company entered into
the Sponsor Support Agreement with the Sponsor and Pubco, as described in Note 1.
Related Party Loans
On May 21, 2024, the Sponsor agreed to loan
the Company up to $ 300,000 to be used for a portion of the expenses of the Initial Public Offering pursuant to the Pre-IPO Note. The Pre-IPO
Note was non-interest bearing and was repaid in full upon completion of the Initial Public Offering.
In order to finance transaction costs in connection
with the Business Combination, the Sponsor has committed up to $ 1,750,000 in the Sponsor Loan to be provided to the Company to fund the
Company’s expenses relating to investigating and selecting a target business and other working capital requirements, including $ 10,000
per month for office space, administrative and shared personnel support services that will be paid to the Sponsor. The Sponsor Loan does
not bear interest and is repayable by the Company to the Sponsor upon consummation of the Business Combination; provided that, at any
time beginning 60 days after the date of the Initial Public Offering, at the Sponsor’s option, all or any portion of the amount
outstanding under the Sponsor Loan may be converted into Class A ordinary shares at a conversion price of $ 10.00 per share. Otherwise,
the Sponsor Loan would be repaid only out of funds held outside the Trust Account. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company
had approximately $ 770,000 and approximately $ 486,000 , respectively, outstanding under the Sponsor Loan.
15
If the Sponsor Loan is insufficient to cover the
working capital requirements of the Company, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor, or certain of the Company’s officers and
directors may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds as may be required (“Working Capital Loans”). Any Working
Capital Loans will be repayable by the Company upon consummation of the Business Combination out of the proceeds of the Trust Account
released to the Company; provided that, at any time beginning 60 days after the date of the Initial Public Offering, at the lender’s
option, all or any portion of the amount outstanding under any Working Capital Loans may be converted into Class A ordinary shares at
a conversion price of $ 10.00 per share. If the Company is unable to consummate the Business Combination, the Company may use a portion
of proceeds held outside the Trust Account to repay the Working Capital Loans but no proceeds held in the Trust Account would be used
to repay the Working Capital Loans. Except for the foregoing, the terms of such Working Capital Loans, if any, have not been determined
and no written agreements exist with respect to such loans. As of both March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company had no borrowings
under the Working Capital Loans.
In addition, the Sponsor has agreed to lend the
Company up to $ 3,000,000 pursuant to a promissory note (the “Sponsor Note”) in connection with the consummation of the Business
Combination, an extension of time for the Company to consummate the Business Combination or the Company’s liquidation (each, a “Redemption
Event”), such that an amount equal to $ 0.15 per Public Share being redeemed in connection with the applicable Redemption Event will
be added to the Trust Account and paid to the holders of the applicable redeemed Public Shares on such Redemption Event. The Sponsor Note
does not bear interest and is repayable by the Company to the Sponsor upon consummation of the Business Combination; provided that, at
any time beginning 60 days after the date of the Initial Public Offering, at the Sponsor’s option, all or any portion of the amount
outstanding under the Sponsor Note may be converted into Class A ordinary shares at a conversion price of $ 10.00 per share. If the Company
is unable to consummate the Business Combination, the Sponsor Note would be repaid only out of funds held outside of the Trust Account.
The Sponsor has waived any claims against the Trust Account in connection with the Sponsor Note. As of both March 31, 2026 and December
31, 2025, no Redemption Events have occurred.
Administrative Services Agreement
The Company has agreed to pay $ 10,000 a month
to the Sponsor for office space, administrative and shared personnel support services. Services commenced on January 7, 2025, the date
the Class A ordinary shares were first listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market and will terminate upon the earlier of the consummation by the
Company of the Business Combination or the liquidation of the Company. During the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company
incurred $ 30,000 and approximately $ 28,000 , respectively, for these services.
Note 5—Commitments and Contingencies
Registration Rights Agreement

CF&Co. was paid a cash underwriting discount
of $ 4,000,000 in connection with the Initial Public Offering. The Company also engaged a qualified independent underwriter to participate
in the preparation of the registration statement and exercise the usual standards of “due diligence” in respect thereto. The

Independent Directors Compensation
Commencing on January 6, 2025, the Company compensates
its independent directors through cash payments for their services on the Company’s board of directors. As a result, during the
three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company recognized approximately $ 34,000 and approximately $ 24,000 , respectively, of compensation
expense on its unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. The corresponding accrued compensation payable recognized on
the Company’s consolidated balance sheets was approximately $ 34,000 and $ 25,000 as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively.
Risks and Uncertainties
The Company’s results of operations and
its ability to complete the Business Combination may be adversely affected by various factors that could cause economic uncertainty and
volatility in the financial markets, many of which are beyond the Company’s control. The Company’s results of operations and
its ability to consummate the Business Combination could be impacted by, among other things, downturns in the financial markets or in
economic conditions, fluctuations in interest rates, and geopolitical instability, such as the military conflicts in Ukraine and the Middle
East. Management continues to evaluate the impact of these factors and has concluded that while it is reasonably possible that these factors
could have an effect on the Company’s financial position, results of its operations and completion of the Business Combination,
the specific impact is not readily determinable as of the date of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. The unaudited
condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.
Note 6—Shareholders’ Deficit
Class A Ordinary Shares –
The Company is authorized to issue 500,000,000 Class A ordinary shares with a par value of $ 0.0001 per share. As of both March 31, 2026
and December 31, 2025, there were 500,000 Class A ordinary shares issued and outstanding, excluding 20,000,000 Class A ordinary shares
subject to possible redemption.
Class B Ordinary Shares –
The Company is authorized to issue 50,000,000 Class B ordinary shares with a par value of $ 0.0001 per share. Holders of Class B ordinary
shares are entitled to one vote for each share. In November 2020, the Company issued 14,375,000 Class B ordinary shares to the Sponsor.
On May 21, 2024, the Sponsor surrendered, for no consideration, 9,375,000 Class B ordinary shares, which the Company cancelled, resulting
in a decrease in the total number of Class B ordinary shares outstanding from 14,375,000 shares to 5,000,000 shares. As of both March
31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, there were 5,000,000 Class B ordinary shares issued and outstanding.
Prior to the consummation of the Business Combination,
only holders of Class B ordinary shares will have the right to vote on the appointment and removal of directors and be entitled to vote
on continuing the Company in a jurisdiction outside the Cayman Islands (including any special resolution required to adopt new constitutional
documents as a result of the Company approving a transfer by way of continuation to a jurisdiction outside the Cayman Islands). Other
than as described above, holders of Class A ordinary shares and Class B ordinary shares will vote together as a single class on all other
matters submitted to a vote of shareholders except as required by law.
The Class B ordinary shares will automatically
convert into nonredeemable Class A ordinary shares in connection with the consummation of the Business Combination or at any time and
from time to time at the option of the holder thereof, on a one-for-one basis, subject to adjustment. Class A ordinary shares issued in
connection with the conversion of Class B ordinary shares issued prior to the consummation of the Business Combination are subject to
the same restrictions as applied to Class B ordinary shares prior to such conversion, including, among other things, certain transfer
restrictions, waiver of redemption rights and the obligation to vote in favor of a Business Combination.
In the case that additional Class A ordinary shares,
or equity-linked securities, are issued or deemed issued in excess of the amounts sold in the Initial Public Offering and related to the
closing of the Business Combination, the ratio at which Class B ordinary shares shall convert into Class A ordinary shares will be adjusted
(unless the holders of a majority of the outstanding Class B ordinary shares agree to waive such adjustment with respect to any such issuance
or deemed issuance) so that the number of Class A ordinary shares issuable upon conversion of all Class B ordinary shares will equal,
in the aggregate, on an as-converted basis, 20 % of the sum of the total number of all ordinary shares issued and outstanding upon the
completion of the Initial Public Offering plus all Class A ordinary shares and equity-linked securities issued or deemed issued in connection
with the Business Combination (excluding any shares or equity-linked securities issued, or to be issued, to any seller in the Business
Combination).
Preference Shares – The Company
is authorized to issue 5,000,000 preference shares with a par value of $ 0.0001 per share, with such designations, voting and other rights
and preferences as may be determined from time to time by the Company’s board of directors. As of both March 31, 2026 and December
31, 2025, there were no preference shares issued or outstanding.

Note 7—Fair Value Measurement on a Recurring
Basis
Fair value is defined as the price that would
be received for sale of an asset or paid for transfer of a liability, in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement
date. U.S. GAAP establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used in measuring
fair value.
The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted
quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs
(Level 3 measurements). These three levels of the fair value hierarchy are:
● Level
1 measurements – unadjusted observable inputs such as quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets;
● Level
2 measurements – inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable such as quoted
prices for similar instruments in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active;
and
● Level
3 measurements – unobservable inputs for which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop
its own assumptions, such as valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value
drivers are unobservable.
In some circumstances, the inputs used to measure
fair value might be categorized within different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In those instances, the fair value measurement is
categorized in its entirety in the fair value hierarchy based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
The following tables present information about
the Company’s assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2026 and December 31,
2025, and indicate the fair value hierarchy of the inputs that the Company utilized to determine such fair value.

As of both March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025,
Level 1 assets include an investment in a money market fund classified as cash equivalents; the fund holds U.S. government debt securities.
The Company uses inputs such as actual trade data, benchmark yields, quoted market prices from dealers or brokers, and other similar sources
to determine the fair value of its investment.
18
Forward Sale Securities
The fair value of the forward sale securities
to be issued under the CEPO BTC Equity PIPE Subscription Agreements is based on the fair value of Bitcoin as of the measurement date.
The excess (asset) or deficit (liability) of the fair value of the forward sale securities to be issued as of March 31, 2026 and December
31, 2025, as compared to the fair value of Bitcoin stipulated under the CEPO BTC Equity PIPE Subscription Agreements, is discounted to
derive present value and then reduced to account for the probability of consummation of the BSTR Business Combination. The primary unobservable
input utilized in determining the fair value of the forward sale securities is the probability of consummation of the BSTR Business Combination.
As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the probability assigned to the consummation of the BSTR Business Combination was 10.6 % and
12.8 %, respectively. The probability was determined based on observed success rates of business combinations for third-party special purpose
acquisition companies.
The following table presents the change in the
fair value of the forward sale securities liability for the three months ended March 31, 2026:

Note 8—Segment Information
The Company has not yet commenced operations,
thus all activity for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 relates to the Company’s formation, the Initial Public Offering,
and the Company’s efforts toward locating and completing a suitable Business Combination. The Company has identified its Chairman
and Chief Executive Officer as the chief operating decision maker (the “CODM”). The Company consists of one reportable segment,
because the resource allocation and assessment of performance of the entity’s business activities by the CODM are performed using
the entity-wide operating results. The net income (loss) is the measure of segment profit (loss) most consistent with U.S. GAAP that is
regularly reviewed by the CODM to allocate resources and assess financial performance. When evaluating the Company’s performance
and making key decisions regarding resource allocation, the CODM also reviews interest income and general and administrative expenses
included in the net income (loss). The CODM reviews interest income on investments held in the Trust Account to measure and monitor shareholder
value and determine the most effective strategy for investing the Trust Account funds while maintaining compliance with the terms of the
trust agreement. In addition, the CODM reviews and monitors general and administrative expenses to manage and forecast cash to ensure
enough capital is available to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period and to ensure expenses are aligned with the
underlying contractual agreements.
The Company does not have operating income and
therefore, it does not have any operating revenues. The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of
the Business Combination, at the earliest. During the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company earned approximately $ 1,860,000
and approximately $ 1,186,000 , respectively, of interest income on investments held in the Trust Account. The Company’s significant
segment expenses were general and administrative expenses, which were approximately $ 287,000 and approximately $ 165,000 for the three
months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, the remaining segment expenses consisted
of administrative expenses incurred pursuant to the administrative services agreement with the Sponsor and the loss as a result of the
change in fair value of the forward sale securities, which amounted to approximately $ 5,736,000 . For the three months ended March 31,
2025, the remaining segment expenses of approximately $ 28,000 consisted of administrative expenses incurred pursuant to the administrative
services agreement with the Sponsor. Refer to the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations for additional
information.
As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the
Company had total assets of approximately $ 209,606,000 and approximately $ 207,729,000 , respectively. See the Company’s consolidated
balance sheets for additional information.
Note 9—Subsequent Events
The Company evaluated subsequent events and transactions
that occurred after the balance sheet date up to the date that the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements were issued and
determined that there have been no events that have occurred that would require adjustments to the disclosures in the unaudited condensed
consolidated financial statements.
