NOTE
1 - ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS BACKGROUND
DT
Cloud Star Acquisition Corporation (the “Company”) is a blank check company. It was incorporated as a Cayman Islands exempted
company on November 29, 2022, with the original name of Infinity Star Acquisition Corporation at inception. The name was changed to DT
Cloud Star Acquisition Corporation on January 31, 2024. 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 (the “Business Combination”).
The Company is not limited to a particular industry or geographic region for purposes of consummating a Business Combination.
The
Company is an early-stage company and emerging growth company and, as such, the Company is subject to all of the risks associated with
early-stage companies and emerging growth companies. The Company has selected December 31 as its fiscal year end.
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 Initial Public Offering.
The
registration statement for the Company’s Initial Public Offering was declared effective on July 24, 2024. On July 26, 2024, the
Company consummated the Initial Public Offering of 6,900,000 units (the “Public Units”), which includes 900,000 Public Units
upon the full exercise by the underwriter of its over-allotment option, at $ 10.00 per Public Unit, generating gross proceeds of $ 69,000,000
to the Company. Each Public Unit consists of one ordinary share and one right (“Public Rights”). Each whole Public Right
will entitle the holder to receive one-ninth (1/9) ordinary share upon consummation of initial business combination.
Simultaneously
with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the sale of 206,900 units (the “Private Placement Units”)
at a price of $ 10.00 per Private Placement Unit in a private placement to DT Cloud Star Management Limited (the “Sponsor”),
generating gross proceeds of $ 2,069,000 to the Company. Each Private Placement Unit consists of one Private Placement Share and one right
(“Private Placement Right”). Each Private Placement Right will entitle the holder to receive one-ninth (1/9) ordinary share
upon consummation of the initial business combination.
Transaction
costs amounted to $ 2,175,819 , consisting of $ 1,035,000 of underwriting commissions, $ 690,000 of deferred underwriting commissions and
$ 450,819 of other offering costs.
Trust
Account
Following
the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the aggregate amount of $ 69,000,000 ($ 10.00 per Public Unit) was held in a trust account
(“Trust Account”) established for the benefit of the Company’s public shareholders and maintained by Wilmington Trust,
acting as trustee. The fund will be invested only in U.S. government treasury bills, with a maturity of 185 days or less or in money
market funds investing solely in U.S. Treasuries and meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act of 1940,
as amended (the “Investment Company Act”). Except with respect to interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account
that may be released to the Company to pay its taxes, if any, the funds in the Trust Account will not be released until the earliest
of (i) the completion of the Company’s initial Business Combination, (ii) the redemption of any public shares properly tendered
in connection with a shareholder vote to amend the Company’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association to (A)
modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to redeem 100% of its public shares if the Company does not complete
its initial Business Combination within 15 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering or (B) with respect to any other provision
relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-business combination activity and (iii) the redemption of all of the Company’s public
shares if the Company is unable to complete its initial Business Combination within 15 months from the closing of the Initial Public
Offering, subject to applicable law.
The
balances in the Trust Account as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 were $ 71,193,993 and $ 70,456,287 , respectively.

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 sale of the Private Placement Units, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be applied generally toward consummating
a Business Combination. Nasdaq rules provide that the Business Combination must be with one or more target businesses that together have
a fair market value equal to at least 80 % of the balance in the Trust Account (less any deferred underwriting commissions and taxes payable
on interest earned) at the time of the signing of an agreement to enter into a Business Combination. The Company will only complete a
Business Combination if the post-Business Combination 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. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully effect a Business Combination.
The
Company will provide its 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. In connection with an initial Business Combination, the Company may seek shareholder approval of a Business Combination
at a meeting called for such purpose at which shareholders may seek to redeem their shares, regardless of whether they vote for or against
a Business Combination.
Notwithstanding
the foregoing, if the Company seeks shareholder approval of a Business Combination and it does not conduct redemptions pursuant to the
tender offer rules, the Company’s 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 seeking redemption rights with respect to 15 % or more of the public shares without the Company’s prior written consent.
If
a shareholder vote is not required 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, offer such redemption pursuant to the tender
offer rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), and file tender offer documents containing substantially the
same information as would be included in a proxy statement with the SEC prior to completing a Business Combination.
The
shareholders will be entitled to redeem their public shares for a pro rata portion of the amount then in the Trust Account (initially
$ 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 tax obligations). The per-share amount to be distributed to shareholders who redeem their public shares will not be
reduced by the deferred underwriting commissions the Company will pay to the underwriter (as discussed in Note 7). There will be no redemption
rights upon the completion of a Business Combination with respect to the Company’s rights. The ordinary shares will be recorded
at redemption value and classified as temporary equity upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering, in accordance with Accounting
Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480 “ Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity .”
The
Company will proceed with a Business Combination if the Company seeks shareholder approval, a majority of the outstanding shares voted
are voted in favor of the Business Combination. If a shareholder vote is not required 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,
offer such redemption pursuant to the tender offer rules of the SEC, and file tender offer documents containing substantially the same
information as would be included in a proxy statement with the SEC prior to completing a Business Combination.

TO UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The
Sponsor and any of the Company’s officers or directors that may hold Founder Shares (as described in Note 5) (as defined the “initial
shareholders”) are identical to the ordinary shares included in the units being sold in this offering except that the founder shares
are subject to certain transfer restrictions, as described in more detail below: the sponsor, officers and directors have entered into
a letter agreement with us, pursuant to which they have agreed (i) to waive their redemption rights with respect to their founder shares,
private placement shares and public shares in connection with the completion of the initial business combination, (ii) to waive their
redemption rights with respect to any founder shares, private placement shares and public shares held by them in connection with a shareholder
vote to approve an amendment to the amended and restated memorandum and articles of association (A) to modify the substance or timing
of obligation to provide for the redemption of public shares in connection with an initial business combination or to redeem 100 % of
public shares if the Company have not consummated the initial business combination within the timeframe set forth therein or (B) with
respect to any other provision relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-initial business combination activity and (iii) to waive
their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to their founder shares and private placement shares if
the Company fail to complete the initial business combination within 15 months from the closing of this offering (although they will
be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to any public shares they hold if the Company fail to complete
the initial business combination within the prescribed time frame).
The
Company will have until October 26, 2025 initially to consummate a Business Combination. However, if the Company anticipates that it
may not be able to consummate a Business Combination within 15 months, if we seek shareholder approval for an extension, our public shareholders
will be offered an opportunity to redeem their shares at a per share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit
in the trust account, including interest (net of taxes payable), divided by the number of then issued and outstanding public shares,
subject to applicable laws.
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 no more than ten business days thereafter, redeem 100 % of
the outstanding 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 (net of taxes payable), which redemption will completely extinguish public shareholders’ rights as shareholders
(including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any), subject to applicable law, and (iii) as promptly as reasonably
possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the remaining shareholders and the Company’s board of directors,
proceed to commence a voluntary liquidation and thereby a formal dissolution of the Company, subject in each case to its obligations
to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of applicable law. The underwriters have agreed to waive its rights to the deferred
underwriting commission held in the Trust Account in the event the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination
Period and, in such event, such amounts will be included with the 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 $ 10.00 .
The
Sponsor has agreed that it will 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 amounts in the Trust Account to below $ 10.00 per share (whether or not the underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised
in full), except as to any claims by a third party who executed a waiver of any and all rights to seek access to the Trust Account and
except as to any claims under the Company’s indemnity of the underwriters of the “Proposed Public Offering” against
certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). 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, 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.

Going
Concern Consideration and Management Liquidity Plans
The
Company initially has 15 months from the consummation of the Initial Public Offering to consummate the initial Business Combination.
If the Company does not complete a Business Combination within 15 months from the consummation of the Initial Public Offering, the Company
will trigger an automatic winding up, dissolution and liquidation pursuant to the terms of the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles
of Association. As a result, this has the same effect as if the Company had formally gone through a voluntary liquidation procedure under
the Companies Act (As Revised) of the Cayman Islands. Accordingly, no vote would be required from our shareholders to commence such a
voluntary winding up, dissolution and liquidation. However, the Company may extend the period of time to consummate a Business Combination.
If the Company is unable to consummate the Company’s initial Business Combination by October 26, 2025 (unless further extended),
the Company will, as promptly as possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem 100 % of the Company’s outstanding
public shares for a pro rata portion of the funds held in the Trust Account, including a pro rata portion of any interest earned on the
funds held in the Trust Account and not necessary to pay taxes, and then seek to liquidate and dissolve. However, the Company may not
be able to distribute such amounts as a result of claims of creditors which may take priority over the claims of the Company’s
public shareholders. In the event of dissolution and liquidation, the Company’s rights will expire and will be worthless.
In
connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”)
2014-15, “Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern,” management has determined
that if the Company is unsuccessful in consummating an initial business combination within the prescribed period of time from the closing
of the IPO, the requirement that the Company cease all operations, redeem the public shares and thereafter liquidate and dissolve raises
substantial doubt about the ability to continue as a going concern. On October 28, 2024, the Company issued an unsecured promissory note
to the sponsor, pursuant to which the Company may borrow up to an aggregate principal amount of $ 300,000 (the “Promissory Note”). The Promissory Note is non-interest-bearing and payable on the consummation of the initial business combination
or converted upon consummation of the business combination into additional private units at a price of $ 10.00 per unit. The financial
statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Management has determined that the
Company has funds that are sufficient to fund the working capital needs of the Company until the consummation of an initial business
combination or the winding up of the Company as stipulated in the Company’s amended and restated memorandum of association. The
accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States
of America (“U.S. GAAP”), which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern.
As
indicated in the accompanying financial statements, the Company currently has a positive working capital, but projected expenses are
beyond the cash available through the earlier of the consummation of the initial Business Combination or one year from the issuance date
of this financial statements. There is no assurance that the Company’s plan to consummate a business combination will be successful.
If a Business Combination is not consummated by the relevant period, there will be a mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution.
As a result, there is substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date
that the financial statements are issued. The financial statement does not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome
of the uncertainty.

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, 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 unaudited financial statements with another public
company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition
period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.
Use
of Estimates
The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires 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.
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 $ 271,508 and $ 411,429 in cash as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.
Marketable
Securities Held in Trust Account
The
Company’s investments held in the Trust Account are classified as trading securities. Trading securities are presented on the balance
sheets at fair value at the end of each reporting period. Gains and losses resulting from the change in fair value of investments held
in Trust Account are included in interest and dividends earned and in unrealized gains on marketable securities held in Trust Account,
in the accompanying statements of operations. The estimated fair values of investments held in Trust Account are determined using available
market information. The Company had $ 71,193,993 and $ 70,456,287 of marketable securities held in the Trust Account as of March 31, 2025
and December 31, 2024, respectively.
During
the three months ended March 31, 2025, interest and dividends earned in the Trust Account amounted to $ 484,684 , unrealized gained on
marketable securities held in Trust Account amounted to $ 253,022 . During the three months ended March 31, 2024, there was no balance
of marketable securities and no related investment income as the account had not opened.

Offering
Costs Associated with the Initial Public Offering
The
Company complies with the requirements of ASC 340-10-S99-1 and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 5A – “Expenses of Offering”.
Offering costs consisted of legal, accounting, and other costs incurred that were directly related to the Initial Public Offering. Upon
completion of the Initial Public Offering, offering costs were allocated to the separable financial instruments issued in the Initial
Public Offering based on a relative fair value basis, compared to total proceeds received. Offering costs allocated to the Rights were
charged to the shareholders’ equity. Offering costs allocated to the ordinary shares were charged against the carrying value of
ordinary shares subject to possible redemption upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering.
Ordinary
Share 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 are classified as a liability instrument and are
measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable ordinary shares (including 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, 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 occurrence
of uncertain future events. Accordingly, as of March 31, 2025, ordinary shares subject to possible redemption are presented at redemption
value as temporary equity, outside of the shareholders’ equity section of the Company’s balance sheet.
The
Company recognizes changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and adjusts the carrying value of redeemable ordinary shares
to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Increases or decreases in the carrying amount of redeemable ordinary
shares are affected by charges against additional paid-in capital and accumulated deficit if additional paid in capital equals to zero.
The interest and dividends earned by the marketable security held in trust, and the extension fee invest into the marketable security
held in trust, were also recognized in redemption value against additional paid-in capital and accumulated deficit immediately.
Income
Taxes
Income
taxes are determined in accordance with the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification Topic 740, “ Income Taxes ”
(“ASC 740”). Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable
to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred
tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted income tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those
temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Any effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates
is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
ASC
740 prescribes a comprehensive model for how companies should recognize, measure, present, and disclose in their unaudited financial
statements uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. Under ASC 740, tax positions must initially be recognized
in the unaudited financial statements when it is more likely than not the position will be sustained upon examination by the tax authorities.
The Company’s management determined that the Cayman Islands is the Company’s major tax jurisdiction. The Company recognizes
accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits, if any, as income tax expense. There were no unrecognized tax benefits
and no amounts accrued for interest and penalties as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024. The Company is currently not aware of any
issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviation from its position.

NOTES
TO UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The
Company may be subject to potential examination by foreign taxing authorities in the area of income taxes. These potential examinations
may include questioning the timing and amount of deductions, the nexus of income among various tax jurisdictions and compliance with
foreign tax laws. The Company’s management does not expect that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits will materially change
over the next twelve months.
The
Company is considered to be an exempted Cayman Islands company with no connection to any other taxable jurisdiction 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’s
tax provision was zero for the periods presented.
On
August 16, 2022, the U.S. Government enacted legislation commonly referred to as the Inflation Reduction Act. The main provisions of
the Inflation Reduction Act (the “IR Act”) that we anticipate may impact us is a 1% excise tax on share repurchases. Any
redemption or other repurchase that occurs after December 31, 2022, in connection with a Business Combination, extension vote or otherwise,
may be subject to the excise tax. Because there is possibility that the Company may acquire a U.S. domestic corporation or engage in
a transaction in which a domestic corporation becomes parent or affiliate to the Company and the Company may become a “covered
corporation” as a listed Company in Nasdaq. The management team has evaluated the IR Act as of March 31, 2025 and does not believe
it would have a material effect on the Company, and will continue to evaluate its impact.
Net
Income (Loss) per Share
The
Company calculates net income (loss) per share in accordance with ASC Topic 260, “ Earnings per Share .” In order to
determine the net income (loss) attributable to both the redeemable shares and non-redeemable shares, the Company first considered the
undistributed income (loss) allocable to both the redeemable ordinary shares and non-redeemable ordinary shares and the undistributed
income (loss) is calculated using the total net income (loss) less any dividends paid. The Company then allocated the undistributed income
(loss) ratably based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding between the redeemable and non-redeemable ordinary shares.
Any remeasurement of the accretion to the redemption value of the ordinary shares subject to possible redemption was considered to be
dividends paid to the public stockholders.
The
calculation of diluted income (loss) per ordinary shares does not consider the effect of the rights issued in connection with the (i)
Initial Public Offering, and (ii) the private placement since the exercise of the rights are contingent upon the occurrence of future
events. As of March 31, 2025, the Company did not have any dilutive securities or other contracts that could, potentially, be exercised
or converted into ordinary shares in the earnings of the Company. As a result, diluted net income (loss) per ordinary share is the same
as basic net income (loss) per ordinary share for the period presented.
The
net income (loss) per share presented in the statement of operations is based on the following:

Fair
Value of Financial Instruments
The
fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value
Measurements and Disclosures,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the accompanying balance sheet, primarily due to
their short-term nature. Please refer to Note 8.
Concentration
of Credit Risk
Financial
instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist of a cash account in a financial institution.
The Company has not experienced losses on this account and management believes the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such
account.

3 – INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING
On
July 26, 2024, pursuant to the Initial Public Offering, the Company sold 6,900,000 Public Units, which includes 900,000 Public Units
upon the full exercise by the underwriter of its over-allotment option, at a purchase price of $ 10.00 per Public Unit. Each Unit will
consist of one ordinary share and one Public Right. Each whole Public Right will entitle the holder to receive one-ninth (1/9) ordinary
share upon consummation of initial business combination.
All
of the 6,900,000 public shares sold as part of the Public Units in the Initial Public Offering contain a redemption feature which allows
for the redemption of such public shares if there is a shareholder vote or tender offer in connection with the Business Combination and
in connection with certain amendments to the Company’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, or in connection
with the Company’s liquidation. In accordance with the SEC and its staff’s guidance on redeemable equity instruments, which
has been codified in ASC 480-10-S99, redemption provisions not solely within the control of the Company require ordinary shares subject
to redemption to be classified outside of permanent equity.
The
Company’s redeemable ordinary share is subject to SEC and its staff’s guidance on redeemable equity instruments, which has
been codified in ASC 480-10-S99. If it is probable that the equity instrument will become redeemable, the Company has the option to either
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 to 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. The accretion or remeasurement is treated as a deemed dividend
(i.e., a reduction to retained earnings, or in absence of retained earnings, additional paid-in capital).
As
of March 31, 2025, the ordinary shares reflected in the balance sheet are reconciled in the following table:

8– FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The
fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value
Measurements and Disclosures,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the accompanying balance sheet, primarily due to
their short-term nature.
“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
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 tiers include:
●
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 the Company’s assessment of the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing
the asset or liability.
