Overview
We
are a blank check company incorporated in the Cayman Islands on June 26, 2025, formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange,
asset acquisition, share purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or other similar business combination with one or more businesses.
We intend to effectuate our business combination using cash derived from the proceeds of the initial public offering and the sale of
the private placement units, our shares, debt or a combination of cash, shares and debt.
66
We
expect to continue to incur significant costs in the pursuit of our acquisition plans. We cannot assure you that our plans to complete
a business combination will be successful.
We
have neither engaged in any operations nor generated any revenues to date. Our only activities from June 26, 2025 (inception) through
December 31, 2025 were organizational activities and those necessary to prepare for the initial public offering, described below, and,
after our initial public offering, identifying a target company for a business combination. We do not expect to generate any operating
revenues until after the completion of our business combination. Subsequent to the initial public offering, we generate non-operating
income in the form of interest income on marketable securities held in the trust account. We incur expenses as a result of being a public
company (for legal, financial reporting, accounting and auditing compliance), as well as for due diligence expenses.
For
the period from June 26, 2025 (inception) through December 31, 2025, we had a net loss of $4,113,235, which consisted of compensation
expense of $5,032,916 and operating costs of $287,063 partially offset by, interest earned on investments held in Trust Account of $1,206,744.
Liquidity
and Capital Resources
As
of December 31, 2025, we had $1,120,561 of cash and working capital surplus of $1,039,173.
On
November 12, 2025, the Company consummated the Initial Public Offering of 24,000,000 Units, which includes the full exercise by the underwriters
of their over-allotment option in the amount of 3,000,000 Units, at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $240,000,000. Simultaneously
with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the sale of 6,800,000 Private Placement Warrants at a price
of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant, in a private placement to the Sponsor and the underwriters, generating gross proceeds of $6,800,000.
Of those 6,800,000 Private Placement Warrants, the Sponsor purchased 4,400,000 Private Placement Warrants and the underwriters purchased
2,400,000 Private Placement Warrants.
Following
the closing of the initial public offering and the private placement, a total of $240,000,000 was placed in the trust account. The proceeds
held in the trust account will be invested only in U.S. government treasury obligations with a maturity of 185 days or less or in money
market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act, which invest only in direct U.S. government
treasury obligations, until the earlier of (i) the completion of a Business Combination and (ii) the distribution of the funds held in
the Trust Account. To mitigate the risk that the Company might be deemed to be an investment company for purposes of the Investment Company
Act, which risk increases the longer that it holds investments in the Trust Account, the Company may, at any time (based on the management
team’s ongoing assessment of all factors related to the potential status under the Investment Company Act), instruct the trustee
to liquidate the investments held in the Trust Account and instead to hold the funds in the Trust Account in cash or in an interest bearing
demand deposit account at a bank. We incurred transaction costs of $15,036,813, consisting of $4,320,000 of cash underwriting fee (net
of $480,000 underwriters’ reimbursement), $9,600,000 of deferred underwriting fee, and $1,116,813 of other offering costs.
The
remaining proceeds from the initial public offering and the private placement are held outside the trust account, in the cash operating
account amounting to $1,120,561 as of December 31, 2025. Such funds are being used primarily to enable us to identify a target and to
negotiate and consummate our initial Business Combination.
We
intend to use substantially all of the funds held in the trust account, including any amounts representing interest earned on the trust
account (which interest shall be net of any permitted withdrawals and excluding deferred underwriting commissions), to complete our business
combination. To the extent that our share capital or debt is used, in whole or in part, as consideration to complete our business combination,
the remaining proceeds held in the trust account will be used as working capital to finance the operations of the target business or
businesses, make other acquisitions and pursue our growth strategies.
We
intend to use the funds held outside the trust account primarily to identify and evaluate target businesses, perform business due diligence
on prospective target businesses, travel to and from the offices, plants or similar locations of prospective target businesses or their
representatives or owners, review corporate documents and material agreements of prospective target businesses, and structure, negotiate
and complete a business combination.
In
order to fund working capital deficiencies or finance transaction costs in connection with a business combination, the Sponsor or an
affiliate of the Sponsor or certain of the Company’s officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan us funds as may
be required. If we complete a business combination, we would repay such loaned amounts. In the event that a business combination does
not close, we may use a portion of the working capital held outside the trust account to repay such loaned amounts but no proceeds from
our trust account would be used for such repayment. Up to $1,500,000 of such working capital loans may be convertible into private placement
warrants of the post-business combination entity at a price of $1.00 per warrant. The private placement warrants issued upon conversion
of any such loans would be identical to the private placement warrants sold in a private placement concurrently with the initial public
offering.
67
We
do not believe we will need to raise additional funds in order to meet the expenditures required for operating our business. However,
if our estimate of the costs of identifying a target business, undertaking in-depth due diligence and negotiating a business combination
are less than the actual amount necessary to do so, we may have insufficient funds available to operate our business prior to our business
combination. Moreover, we may need to obtain additional financing either to complete our business combination or because we become obligated
to redeem a significant number of our public shares upon consummation of our business combination, in which case we may issue additional
securities or incur debt in connection with such business combination.
Off-Balance
Sheet Arrangements
We
have no obligations, assets or liabilities, which would be considered off-balance sheet arrangements as of December 31, 2025.
Contractual
Obligations
Underwriting
Agreement
The
underwriters were entitled to a deferred fee of $0.40 per Unit, or $9,600,000 in the aggregate. The deferred fee will become payable
to the Underwriters from the amounts held in the Trust Account solely in the event that the Company completes a Business Combination,
subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement.
Net
Loss Per Ordinary Share
We
comply with the accounting and disclosure requirements of FASB ASC Topic 260, “Earnings Per Share.” Net loss per Ordinary
Share is computed by dividing net loss applicable to shareholders by the weighted average number of Ordinary Shares outstanding for the
applicable periods. We apply the two-class method in calculating earnings per Ordinary Share and allocate net 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 is not in excess of the fair
value.
Critical
Accounting Estimates
The
preparation of the unaudited condensed financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with GAAP requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities
at the date of the unaudited condensed financial statements, and income and expenses during the periods reported. Making estimates requires
management to exercise significant judgement. 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 unaudited condensed 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 materially
differ from those estimates. As of December 31, 2025, we did not have any critical accounting estimates to be disclosed.
Ordinary
Shares Subject to Possible Redemption
We
account for our 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 is classified as a liability instrument and is measured
at fair value. Conditionally redeemable ordinary shares (including common stock that features redemption rights that are either within
the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the Company’s control)
is classified in temporary equity. At all other times, ordinary shares are classified as stockholders’ equity. The Company’s
public 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, at December 31, 2025, the public shares are presented at redemption value as temporary equity,
outside of the shareholders’ equity (deficit) section of the Company’s balance sheet. We recognize changes in redemption
value immediately as they occur and adjusts the carrying value of the ordinary shares subject to possible redemption to equal the redemption
value at the end of each reporting period. This method would view the end of the reporting period as if it were also the redemption date
for the security.
Recent
Accounting Standards
Management
does not believe that there are any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards, which, if currently adopted,
would have a material effect on the financial statements and notes thereto included in this Report under Item 1. “Financial Statements”.
