NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Note 1 — Description of Organization and Business Operations Redwoods Acquisition Corp. (the “Company” or “Redwoods”) is a newly organized blank check company incorporated as a Delaware corporation on March 16, 2021. The Company was formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities (“Business Combination”). The Company is not limited to a particular industry or geographic region for purposes of consummating a Business Combination. As of September 30, 2023, the Company had not commenced any operations. All activities through September 30, 2023 are related to the Company’s formation, the initial public offering (“IPO” as defined below in Note 4) and, subsequent to the IPO, identifying a target company for a Business Combination. The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of a Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company generates non-operating income in the form of interest income from the proceeds derived from the IPO. The Company has selected December 31 as its fiscal year end. The Company’s sponsor is Redwoods Capital LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Sponsor”). The registration statement for the Company’s IPO became effective on March 30, 2022. On April 4, 2022, the Company consummated the IPO of 10,000,000 units at an offering price of $ 10.00 per unit (the “Public Units’), generating gross proceeds of $ 100,000,000 . Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, the Company sold to the Sponsor and Chardan Capital Markets LLC (“Chardan”), in a private placement, 377,500 units and 100,000 units, respectively, at $ 10.00 per unit (the “Private Units”), generating total gross proceeds of $ 4,775,000 , which is described in Note 5. The Company granted the underwriters a 45-day option to purchase up to 1,500,000 additional Public Units to cover over-allotments, if any. On April 7, 2022, the underwriters exercised the over-allotment option in full and purchased 1,500,000 Public Units at a price of $ 10.00 per Public Unit, generating gross proceeds of $ 15,000,000 . Simultaneously with the closing of the over-allotment option, the Company consummated the sale of an additional aggregate of 52,500 Private Units with the Sponsor and Chardan at a price of $ 10.00 per Private Unit, generating total proceeds of $ 525,000 . Transaction costs amounted to $ 8,365,339 , consisting $ 2,875,000 of underwriting fees, $ 4,312,500 of deferred underwriting fees (payable only upon completion of a Business Combination) and $ 1,177,839 of other offering costs. Upon the closing of the IPO and the sale of Private Units on April 4, 2022, and the exercise of the over-allotment option and the sale of the additional Private Units on April 7, 2022, a total of $ 116,150,000 was placed in a trust account (the “Trust Account”) maintained by Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company as a trustee and will be invested only in U.S. government treasury bills with a maturity of 185 days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), and that invest only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations. These funds will not be released until the earlier of the completion of the initial Business Combination and the liquidation due to the Company’s failure to complete a Business Combination within the applicable period of time. The proceeds deposited in the Trust Account could become subject to the claims of the Company’s creditors, if any, which could have priority over the claims of the Company’s public stockholders. In addition, interest income earned on the funds in the Trust Account may be released to the Company to pay its income or other tax obligations. With these exceptions, expenses incurred by the Company may be paid prior to a business combination only from the net proceeds of the IPO and private placement not held in the Trust Account. On March 31, 2023, the Company held a special meeting of stockholders, at which the Company’s stockholders approved (i) an amendment to the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation (the “Extension Amendment”) and (ii) an amendment (the “Trust Amendment”) to the Investment Management Trust Agreement, dated March 30, 2022 (the “Trust Agreement”), by and between the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as trustee (the “Trustee”), extending the date by which the Company must consummate a Business Combination from April 4, 2023 to July 4, 2023, with the ability to further extend the deadline on a monthly basis up to five times from July 4, 2023 to December 4, 2023. In connection with the stockholders’ vote at the special meeting, an aggregate of 6,103,350 shares with redemption value of approximately $ 63,169,451 (or $ 10.35 per share) of the Company’s common stock were tendered for redemption. 5 REDWOODS ACQUISITION CORP. NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS As a result of stockholder approval of the Extension Amendment and the Trust Amendment, the Sponsor, or any of their respective affiliates or designees, agreed to deposit into the Trust Account $ 360,000 for the initial three-month extension and $ 120,000 per month for each subsequent one-month extension. The extension payment(s) will bear no interest and will be repayable by the Company to the contributors upon consummation of the Business Combination. The loans will be forgiven by the contributors if the Company is unable to consummate the Business Combination except to the extent of any funds held outside of the Trust Account. On March 31, 2023, the Sponsor made a deposit of $ 360,000 into the Trust Account and extended the period of time the Company has to consummate an initial Business Combination from April 4, 2023 to July 4, 2023, on June 29, 2023, the Sponsor made a deposit of $ 360,000 into the Trust Account and extended the period of time the Company has to consummate an initial Business Combination from July 4, 2023 to October 4, 2023, and subsequently on each of September 26, 2023 and November 1, 2023, the Sponsor made a deposit of $ 120,000 into the Trust Account to further extend the business combination period to December 4, 2023. On November 13, 2023, the Company held a special meeting of stockholders, at which the Company’s stockholders approved (i) an amendment to the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation (the “Second Extension Amendment”) to allow the Company to extend the date by which the Company must consummate a business combination up to twelve (12) times for an additional one month each time from December 4, 2023 to December 4, 2024 and (ii) an amendment to the Trust Agreement (the “Second Trust Amendment”) to allow the Company to extend the date on which the Trustee must liquidate the Trust Account by up to twelve (12) times for an additional one month each time from December 4, 2023 to December 4, 2024 by depositing $ 35,000 per month for each monthly extension. In connection with the stockholders’ vote at the special meeting, an aggregate of 3,636,456 shares with redemption value of approximately $ 39,255,410 (or $ 10.79 per share) of the Company’s common stock were tendered for redemption. The Company will provide its holders of the outstanding Public Shares (the “Public Stockholders”) 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 stockholder meeting called to approve the Business Combination or (ii) by means of a tender offer. The decision as to whether the Company will seek stockholder approval of a Business Combination or conduct a tender offer will be made by the Company, solely in its discretion. The Public Stockholders will be entitled to redeem their Public Shares for a pro rata portion of the amount then in the Trust Account (initially anticipated to be $ 10.10 per Public Share, plus any pro rata interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay its franchise and income tax obligations). If a stockholder vote is not required by law and the Company does not decide to hold a stockholder vote for business or other legal reasons, the Company will, pursuant to its Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (as amended, the “Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation”), conduct the redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and file tender offer documents with the SEC prior to completing a Business Combination. If, however, stockholder approval of the transaction is required by law, or the Company decides to obtain stockholder 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 stockholder may elect to redeem their Public Shares irrespective of whether they vote for or against the proposed transaction. If the Company seeks stockholder approval in connection with a Business Combination, the Company’s Sponsor and any of the Company’s officers or directors that may hold Insider Shares (as defined in Note 6) (the “Initial Stockholders”) and Chardan have agreed (a) to vote their Insider Shares, the shares underlying the Private Units (“Private Shares”) and any Public Shares purchased during or after the IPO in favor of approving a Business Combination and (b) not to convert any shares (including the Insider Shares) in connection with a stockholder vote to approve, or sell the shares to the Company in any tender offer in connection with, a proposed Business Combination. The Initial Stockholders and Chardan have agreed (a) to waive their redemption rights with respect to the Insider Shares, Private Shares and Public Shares held by them in connection with the completion of a Business Combination and (b) not to propose, or vote in favor of, an amendment to the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation that would affect the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to redeem 100 % of its Public Shares if the Company does not complete a Business Combination, unless the Company provides the public stockholders with the opportunity to redeem their Public Shares in conjunction with any such amendment. 6 REDWOODS ACQUISITION CORP. NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The Company has until December 4, 2023 (unless further extended monthly up to December 4, 2024 as allowed under the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation, as amended) to consummate a Business Combination. As a result of stockholder approval of the Second Extension Amendment and the Second Trust Amendment, in order to extend the period of time available for the Company to consummate a Business Combination (the “Combination Period”), the Sponsor, or any of its affiliates or designees, within two business days prior to the applicable deadline, must deposit $35,000 into the Trust Account for each additional one-month extension. If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the Company will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem the Public Shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account including interest (which interest shall be net of taxes payable, and less certain amount of interest to pay dissolution expenses) divided by the number of then outstanding Public Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public stockholders’ rights as stockholders (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 stockholders and the Company’s board of directors, dissolve and liquidate, subject in each case to the Company’s obligations under Delaware law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. The Initial Stockholders and Chardan have agreed to waive their liquidation rights with respect to the Insider Shares and Private Shares, as applicable, if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period. However, if any Initial Stockholder or Chardan acquires Public Shares in or after the IPO, such Public Shares will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period. The underwriters have agreed to waive their rights to their deferred underwriting commissions (see Note 7) held in the Trust Account in the event the Company does not complete a Business Combination within in the Combination Period and, in such event, such amounts will be included with the other funds held in the Trust Account that will be available to fund the redemption of the Public Shares. In the event of such distribution, it is possible that the per share value of the assets remaining available for distribution will be less than $ 10.10 . 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 third party (excluding the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm) for services rendered or products sold to the Company, or a prospective target business with which the Company has entered into a written letter of intent, confidentiality or similar agreement or business combination agreement, reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account to below the lesser of (i) $ 10.10 per Public Share and (ii) the actual amount per Public Share held in the Trust Account as of the date of the liquidation of the Trust Account, if less than $ 10.10 per share due to reductions in the value of the trust assets, in each case less taxes payable, provided that such liability will not apply to any claims by a third party or prospective target business who executed a waiver of any and all rights to the monies held in the Trust Account (whether or not such waiver is enforceable), nor will it apply to any claims under the Company’s indemnity of the underwriters of the IPO against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). Moreover, in the event that an executed waiver is deemed to be unenforceable against a third party, the Sponsor will not be responsible to the extent of any liability for such third party claims. On May 30, 2023, the Company entered into a business combination agreement (the “Business Combination Agreement”) by and among the Company, ANEW Medical Sub, Inc., a Wyoming corporation (“Merger Sub”), and ANEW Medical, Inc., a Wyoming corporation (“ANEW”). The Business Combination Agreement provides, among other things, that on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, Merger Sub will merge with and into ANEW, with ANEW as the surviving company in the merger and, after giving effect to such merger, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Merger”). Upon the closing of the Merger, the Company will change its name to “ANEW Medical, Inc.” Under the Business Combination Agreement, the Company will acquire all of the outstanding equity interests of ANEW in exchange for shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $ 0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), based on an implied ANEW equity value of $ 60,000,000 , to be paid to ANEW stockholders at the effective time of the Merger. In addition, certain ANEW stockholders will be issued additional shares of Common Stock (the “Contingent Consideration Shares”), which will be issued as follows: (i) 2,000,000 Contingent Consideration Shares upon the Company achieving a closing price equal to or exceeding $12.50 for 10 trading days within a 20-day trading period in the first three years following the closing of the Merger; (ii) 2,000,000 Contingent Consideration Shares upon the Company achieving a closing price equal to or exceeding $15.00 for 10 trading days within a 20-day trading period in the first three years following the closing of the Merger; and (iii) 1,000,000 Contingent Consideration Shares upon the Company achieving a closing price equal to or exceeding $20.00 for 10 trading days within a 20-day trading period in the first five years following the closing of the Merger . 7 REDWOODS ACQUISITION CORP. NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS In connection with the execution of the Business Combination Agreement, the Sponsor and other persons party thereto (together with the Sponsor, collectively, the “Company Insiders”), entered into a support agreement with the Company and ANEW (the “Sponsor Support Agreement”). Under the Sponsor Support Agreement, the Sponsor agreed to vote, at any meeting of the stockholders of the Company and in any action by written consent of the stockholders of the Company, all of such Sponsor’s 2,875,000 shares of common stock (the “Founder Shares”) and 530,000 Private Units, each consisting of one share of Common Stock (such shares, together with the Founder Shares, the “Supporter Shares”), one warrant and one right, (i) in favor of (a) the Business Combination Agreement and each ancillary document to which the Company is a party and the transactions contemplated thereby and (b) the other proposals that the Company and ANEW agreed in the Business Combination Agreement shall be submitted at such meeting for approval by the Company’s stockholders together with the proposal to approve the Merger, (ii) approval of the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws and (iii) against any other action that would reasonably be expected to impede, interfere with or adversely affect the Merger. The Sponsor Support Agreement also prohibits the Sponsor from, among other things and subject to certain exceptions, selling, assigning or transferring any Supporter Shares held by the Sponsor or taking any action that would have the effect of preventing or materially delaying the Sponsor from performing its obligations under the Sponsor Support Agreement. In addition, in the Sponsor Support Agreement, the Sponsor agreed to waive, and not to assert or claim, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any anti-dilution protection pursuant to the organizational documents of the Company in connection with the Merger. The Sponsor Support Agreement commits 1,375,000 Founder Shares (the “Deferred Shares”) to a share escrow account which will be established at the closing of the Merger pursuant to an escrow agreement to be entered into on such date by and among the Company, the Company Insiders and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as escrow agent. The Deferred Shares will be released from the escrow account as follows: (i) 458,333 Deferred Shares upon the Company achieving a closing price equal to or exceeding $12.50 for 10 trading days within a 20-day trading period in the first three years following the closing of the Merger; (ii) 458,333 Deferred Shares upon the Company achieving a closing price equal to or exceeding $15.00 for 10 trading days within a 20-day trading period in the first three years following the closing of the Merger; and (iii) 458,333 Deferred Shares upon the Company achieving a closing price equal to or exceeding $20.00 for 10 trading days within a 20-day trading period in the first five years following the closing of the Merger. In connection with the execution of the Business Combination Agreement, certain ANEW stockholders (the “ANEW Supporting Stockholders”) entered into a voting and support agreement with the Company and ANEW (the “ANEW Support Agreement”). Under the ANEW Support Agreement, each ANEW Supporting Stockholder agreed that, at any meeting of ANEW’s stockholders related to the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement, each such ANEW Supporting Stockholder will appear at the meeting or otherwise cause its shares to be voted (i) in favor of the Business Combination Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, and authorize and approve any amendment to ANEW’s governing documents that is deemed necessary or advisable by ANEW to effect the Merger; and (ii) against any other action would reasonably be expected to impede, interfere with or adversely affect the Merger. The ANEW Support Agreement also restricts the ANEW Supporting Stockholders from, among other things, selling, assigning or otherwise transferring any of its shares unless the buyer, assignee or transferee thereof executes a joinder agreement to the ANEW Support Agreement in a form reasonably acceptable to the Company. On November 4, 2023, Redwoods entered into Amendment No. 1 to the Business Combination (the “Amendment”) with the other parties thereto. The Amendment extends the termination date under the Business Combination Agreement from November 4, 2023 to March 4, 2024 (the “Termination Date”); provided, further, that (i) the right to terminate the Business Combination Agreement will not be available to Redwoods if any Redwoods party’s breach of any of its covenants or obligations under the Business Combination Agreement will have proximately caused the failure to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement on or before the Termination Date, and (ii) the right to terminate the Business Combination Agreement will not be available to the Company if the Company’s breach of its covenants or obligations under the Business Combination Agreement will have proximately caused the failure to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement on or before the Termination Date. 8 REDWOODS ACQUISITION CORP. NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Liquidity, Capital Resources and Going Concern As of September 30, 2023, the Company had cash of $ 146,334 and a working capital deficit of $ 755,526 (excluding income tax and franchise tax payable as the taxes will be paid out of the Trust Account). On March 22, 2023, March 30, 2023, June 28, 2023, August 29, 2023 and September 25, 2023, the Sponsor provided a loan of $ 150,000 , $ 360,000 , $ 360,000 , $ 150,000 , and $ 120,000 , respectively, to be used, in part, for transaction costs related to the Business Combination (see Note 6). The Company has until December 4, 2023 (unless further extended monthly up to December 4, 2024 as allowed under the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation, as amended) to consummate a Business Combination. It is uncertain that the Company will be able to consummate a Business Combination by this time. If a Business Combination is not consummated by this date, there will be a mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution. The Company expects to continue to incur significant professional costs to remain as a publicly traded company and to incur significant transaction costs in pursuit of the consummation of a Business Combination. The Company may need to obtain additional financing either to complete its Business Combination or because it becomes obligated to redeem a significant number of public shares upon consummation of its Business Combination, in which case the Company may issue additional securities or incur debt in connection with such Business Combination. Subject to compliance with applicable securities laws, the Company would only complete such financing simultaneously with the completion of our Business Combination. If the Company is unable to complete its Business Combination because it does not have sufficient funds available, it will be forced to cease operations and liquidate the Trust Account. In addition, following the Business Combination, if cash on hand is insufficient, the Company may need to obtain additional financing in order to meet its obligations. In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with Financial Accounting Standard Board’s Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-15, “Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern”, the Company has until December 4, 2023 (unless further extended monthly up to December 4, 2024 as allowed under the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation, as amended) to consummate a Business Combination. It is uncertain that the Company will be able to consummate a Business Combination by this time. If a Business Combination is not consummated by such date and an extension has not been requested by the Sponsor and approved by the Company’s stockholders, there will be a mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution of the Company. Management has determined that the date for liquidation and subsequent dissolution as well as liquidity concerns raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statement does not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Risks and Uncertainties Management has evaluated the impact of persistent inflation and rising interest rates, financial market instability, including the recent bank failures, the lingering effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and certain geopolitical events, including the conflict in Ukraine and the surrounding region, and has concluded that while it is reasonably possible that the risks and uncertainties related to or resulting from these events could have a negative effect on the Company’s financial position, results of its operations and/or search for a target company, the specific impact is not readily determinable as of the date of these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these risks and uncertainties. Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 On August 16, 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (the “IR Act”) was signed into federal law. The IR Act provides for, among other things, a new U.S. federal 1% excise tax on certain repurchases (including redemptions) of stock by publicly traded domestic (i.e., U.S.) corporations and certain domestic subsidiaries of publicly traded foreign corporations. The excise tax is imposed on the repurchasing corporation itself, not its shareholders from which shares are repurchased. The amount of the excise tax is generally 1% of the fair market value of the shares repurchased at the time of the repurchase. However, for purposes of calculating the excise tax, repurchasing corporations are permitted to net the fair market value of certain new stock issuances against the fair market value of stock repurchases during the same taxable year. In addition, certain exceptions apply to the excise tax. The U.S. Department of the Treasury (the “Treasury”) has been given authority to provide regulations and other guidance to carry out and prevent the abuse or avoidance of the excise tax. The IR Act applies only to repurchases that occur after December 31, 2022. 9 REDWOODS ACQUISITION CORP. NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 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. Whether and to what extent the Company would be subject to the excise tax in connection with a Business Combination, extension vote or otherwise would depend on a number of factors, including (i) the fair market value of the redemptions and repurchases in connection with the Business Combination, extension or otherwise, (ii) the structure of a Business Combination, (iii) the nature and amount of any “PIPE” or other equity issuances in connection with a Business Combination (or otherwise issued not in connection with a Business Combination but issued within the same taxable year of a Business Combination) and (iv) the content of regulations and other guidance from the Treasury. In addition, because the excise tax would be payable by the Company and not by the redeeming holders, the mechanics of any required payment of the excise tax have not been determined. The foregoing could cause a reduction in the cash available on hand to complete a Business Combination and in the Company’s ability to complete a Business Combination. At this time, it has been determined that the IR Act tax provisions would have an impact to the Company’s fiscal 2023 tax provision as there were redemptions by the public stockholders in March 2023; as a result, the Company recorded $ 631,696 excise tax liability as of September 30, 2023. The Company will continue to monitor for updates to the Company’s business along with guidance issued with respect to the IR Act to determine whether any adjustments are needed to the Company’s tax provision in future periods. Note 2 — Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC, and include all normal and recurring adjustments that management of the Company considers necessary for a fair presentation of its financial position and operation results. Operating results for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2023 or any future period. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with the SEC on April 10, 2023. 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 stockholder 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 an election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of the Company’s financial statements with another public company 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. 10 REDWOODS ACQUISITION CORP. NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Use of Estimates In preparing these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP, the Company’s management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported expenses during the reporting period. Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the unaudited condensed consolidated 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 six months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. The Company had $ 146,334 and $ 340,962 in cash and did not have any cash equivalents as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. Investments Held in Trust Account As of September 30, 2023, the assets held in the Trust Account were held in cash and U.S. Treasury securities. The Company classifies its U.S. Treasury securities as trading securities in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 320, “Investments—Debt and Equity Securities.” Trading securities are presented on balance sheets at fair value at the end of each reporting period. Gains and losses resulting from the change in fair value of these securities is included in gain on investments held in Trust Account in the accompanying statement of operations. The estimated fair values of all assets held in the Trust Account are determined using available market information and classified as Level 1 measurements. Offering Costs The Company complies with the requirements of FASB ASC Topic 340-10-S99-1, “Other Assets and Deferred Costs – SEC Materials” (“ASC 340-10-S99”) and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 5A, “Expenses of Offering”. Offering costs were $ 8,365,339 consisting principally of underwriting, legal, accounting and other expenses that are directly related to the IPO and charged to stockholders’ equity upon the completion of the IPO. Income Taxes The Company accounts for income taxes under ASC 740, “Income Taxes.” ASC 740, Income Taxes, requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for both the expected impact of differences between the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and tax basis of assets and liabilities and for the expected future tax benefit to be derived from tax loss and tax credit carry forwards. ASC 740 additionally requires a valuation allowance to be established when it is more likely than not that all or a portion of deferred tax assets will not be realized. The Company’s effective tax rate was 33.91 % and 9.84 % for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and 31.52 % and 13.36 % for nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The effective tax rate differs from the statutory tax rate of 21 % for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, due to change in fair value of warrants, the change in valuation of deferred tax assets and non-deductible M&A costs. ASC 740 also clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. ASC 740 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim period, disclosure and transition. 11 REDWOODS ACQUISITION CORP. NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS While ASC 740 identifies usage of an effective annual tax rate for purposes of an interim provision, it does allow for estimating individual elements in the current period if they are significant, unusual or infrequent. Computing the effective tax rate for the Company is complicated due to the potential impact of the timing of any Business Combination expenses and the actual interest income that will be recognized during the year. The Company has taken a position as to the calculation of income tax expense in a current period based on ASC 740-270-25-3 which states, “If an entity is unable to estimate a part of its ordinary income (or loss) or the related tax (benefit) but is otherwise able to make a reasonable estimate, the tax (or benefit) applicable to the item that cannot be estimated shall be reported in the interim period in which the item is reported.” The Company believes its calculation to be a reliable estimate and allows it to properly take into account the usual elements that can impact its annualized book income and its impact on the effective tax rate. As such, the Company is computing its taxable income (loss) and associated income tax provision based on actual results through September 30, 2023. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. There were no unrecognized tax benefits and no amounts accrued for interest and penalties as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviation from its position. The Company has identified the United States and the State of New York as its only “major” tax jurisdiction. The Company is subject to income taxation by major taxing authorities since inception. These examinations may include questioning the timing and amount of deductions, the nexus of income among various tax jurisdictions and compliance with federal and state 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. Net Loss Per Share The Company complies with accounting and disclosure requirements of FASB ASC 260, Earnings Per Share. The unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations include a presentation of income (loss) per redeemable share and income (loss) per non-redeemable share following the two-class method of income 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 shares and non-redeemable shares and the undistributed income (loss) is calculated using the total net 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 shares. Any remeasurement of the accretion to redemption value of the common shares subject to possible redemption was considered to be dividends paid to the public shareholders. As of September 30, 2023, the Company did not have any dilutive securities and other contracts that could, potentially, be exercised or converted into common shares and then share in the earnings of the Company. As a result, diluted loss per share is the same as basic loss per share for the period presented. The net income (loss) per share presented in the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations is based on the following: Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023 2022 2023 2022 Net income $ 290,145 $ 731,121 $ 1,257,210 $ 517,286 Accretion of common stock to redemption value (1) ( 679,973 ) ( 27,171,067 ) ( 3,016,544 ) ( 27,171,067 ) Net loss including accretion of common stock to redemption value $ ( 389,828 ) $ ( 26,439,946 ) $ ( 1,759,334 ) $ ( 26,653,781 ) 12 REDWOODS ACQUISITION CORP.

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 and money market funds held in the Trust Account. The Company has not experienced losses on this account and management believes the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such account. Fair Value of Financial Instruments FASB ASC Topic 820 “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” defines fair value, the methods used to measure fair value and the expanded disclosures about fair value measurements. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between the buyer and the seller at the measurement date. In determining fair value, the valuation techniques consistent with the market approach, income approach and cost approach shall be used to measure fair value. FASB ASC Topic 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy for inputs, which represent the assumptions used by the buyer and seller in pricing the asset or liability. These inputs are further defined as observable and unobservable inputs. Observable inputs are those that buyer and seller would use in pricing the asset or liability based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s assumptions about the inputs that the buyer and seller would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. 13 REDWOODS ACQUISITION CORP. NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The fair value hierarchy is categorized into three levels based on the inputs as follows: Level 1 — Valuations based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access. Valuation adjustments and block discounts are not being applied. Since valuations are based on quoted prices that are readily and regularly available in an active market, valuation of these securities does not entail a significant degree of judgment. Level 2 — Valuations based on (i) quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities, (ii) quoted prices in markets that are not active for identical or similar assets, (iii) inputs other than quoted prices for the assets or liabilities, or (iv) inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by market through correlation or other means. Level 3 — Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. The fair value of the Company’s certain assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the consolidated balance sheet. The fair values of cash and cash equivalents, and other current assets, accrued expenses, due to sponsor are estimated to approximate the carrying values as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 due to the short maturities of such instruments. See Note 9 for the disclosure of the Company’s assets and liabilities that were measured at fair value on a recurring basis. Convertible Promissory Notes The Company initially accounted for its convertible promissory notes under ASC 815, “Derivatives and Hedging” and elected the fair value option under ASC 825. Using the fair value option method, each convertible promissory note is required to be recorded at its initial fair value on the date of issuance, and each balance sheet date thereafter. Changes in the estimated fair value of the notes are recognized as a non-cash gain or loss on the statements of operations. Subsequently, the conversion feature of the convertible promissory notes was amended on May 15, 2023; the holder of the convertible promissory notes, in its sole discretion, may convert any or all of the unpaid principal under the convertible promissory notes into common stocks of the Company (see Note 6). As a result, the Company assessed the change in conversion feature and determined that the convertible promissory notes should be recorded as debt (liability) at cash proceeds on the balance sheet. The Company’s assessment of the embedded conversion feature considered the derivative scope exception guidance under ASC 815 pertaining to equity classification of contracts in an entity’s own equity. The Company’s assessment was also based on ASC 470-50 – Debt Modifications and Exchanges; management determined that the amended conversion option (which is based on shares of the Company’s common stocks) is substantially different from the original conversion option (which was based on units). Since each unit consists of one share of common stock, one share of right convertible into one-tenth (1/10) of one share of common stock upon the consummation of a Business Combination, the original conversion option offers at least 10% more shares of common stock (including underlying shares from the rights conversion) than the amended conversion option. As such, a remeasurement under ASC 825 has occurred and the previously selected fair value option is no longer applied. The convertible promissory notes were recorded as debt (liability) at cash proceeds on the balance sheet effective May 15, 2023. For all newly issued and unmodified convertible promissory notes, the Company elects an early adoption of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2020-06, Debt - Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40) (“ASU 2020-06”) and accounts for newly issued s as debt (liability) on the balance sheet. The Company considers the derivative scope exception guidance under ASC 815 pertaining to equity classification of contracts in an entity’s own equity. 14 REDWOODS ACQUISITION CORP. NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Warrants The Company accounts for warrants (Public Warrants or Private Warrants) as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the warrant’s specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (“ASC 480”) and ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”). The assessment considers whether the warrants are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and whether the warrants meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the warrants are indexed to the Company’s own common shares and whether the warrant holders could potentially require “net cash settlement” in a circumstance outside of the Company’s control, among other conditions for equity classification. This assessment, which requires the use of professional judgment, is conducted at the time of warrant issuance and as of each subsequent quarterly period end date while the warrants are outstanding. For issued or modified warrants that meet all of the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded as a component of equity at the time of issuance. For issued or modified warrants that do not meet all the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded as liabilities at their initial fair value on the date of issuance, and each balance sheet date thereafter. Changes in the estimated fair value of the warrants are recognized as a non-cash gain or loss on the statements of operations. The Company has elected to account for its Public Warrants as equity and the Private Warrants as liabilities. Common Stock Subject to Possible Redemption The Company accounts for its common stock subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in ASC Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” Common stock subject to mandatory redemption (if any) are classified as a liability instrument and are measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable common stock (including common stock that feature redemption rights that is either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the Company’s control) is classified as temporary equity. At all other times, common stock is classified as stockholders’ equity. The Company’s common stock features certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to occurrence of uncertain future events. The Company recognizes changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and adjusts the carrying value of redeemable common stock to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Increases or decreases in the carrying number of shares of redeemable common stock are affected by charges against additional paid in capital or accumulated deficit if additional paid in capital equals to zero. Recent Accounting Pronouncements Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Note 3 — Cash and Investment Held in Trust Account As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, investment securities in the Company’s Trust Account consisted of $ 57,811,916 and $ 117,806,478 in cash and U.S. Treasury securities, respectively. The following table presents information about the Company’s assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2023 and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation inputs the Company utilized to determine such fair value.

The Company granted the underwriters a 45-day option to purchase up to 1,500,000 additional Public Units to cover over-allotments, if any. On April 7, 2022, the underwriters exercised the over-allotment option in full and purchased 1,500,000 Public Units at a price of $ 10.00 per Public Unit, generating gross proceeds of $ 15,000,000 . Each Public Unit consists of one share of common stock (“Public Share”), one right (“Public Right”) and one redeemable warrant (“Public Warrant”). Each Public Right will convert into one-tenth (1/10) of one share of common stock upon the consummation of a Business Combination. Each Public Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share of common stock at a price of $ 11.50 per share, subject to adjustment. The Public Warrants will become exercisable on the later of the completion of the Company’s initial Business Combination or 12 months from the closing of the IPO, and will expire five years after the completion of the Company’s initial Business Combination or earlier upon redemption or liquidation. All of the 11,500,000 Public Shares sold as part of the Public Units in the IPO contain a redemption feature which allows for the redemption of such Public Shares if there is a stockholder vote or tender offer in connection with the Business Combination and in connection with certain amendments to the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation, 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 common stock subject to redemption to be classified outside of permanent equity. The Company’s redeemable common stock 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).

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Note 5 — Private Placement Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, the Sponsor and Chardan purchased an aggregate of 477,500 Private Units at a price of $ 10.00 per Private Unit for an aggregate purchase price of $ 4,775,000 in a private placement. Simultaneously with the closing of the over-allotment option, the Company consummated the sale of an additional aggregate of 52,500 Private Units with the Sponsor and Chardan at a price of $ 10.00 per Private Unit, generating total proceeds of $ 525,000 . The Private Units are identical to the Public Units except with respect to certain registration rights and transfer restrictions and the private warrants, which have terms and provisions that are identical to those of the warrants being sold as part of the units in the IPO, except that the private warrants (i) will be exercisable either for cash or on a cashless basis at the holder’s option and (ii) will not be redeemable by the Company, in either case as long as the private warrants are held by the initial purchasers or any of their permitted transferees. The net proceeds from the Private Units were added to the proceeds from the IPO to be held in the Trust Account. If the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the proceeds from the sale of the Private Units will be used to fund the redemption of the Public Shares (subject to the requirements of applicable law), and the Private Units and all underlying securities will expire worthless. Note 6 — Related Party Transactions Insider Shares On January 4, 2022, the Company issued 2,875,000 shares of common stock (the “Insider Shares”) to the Initial Stockholders for an aggregate consideration of $ 25,000 , or approximately $ 0.009 per share. As a result of the underwriters’ full exercise of their over-allotment option on April 7, 2022, no insider shares are currently subject to forfeiture. As of September 30, 2023, there were 2,875,000 Insider Shares issued and outstanding. The Initial Stockholders have agreed, subject to certain limited exceptions, not to transfer, assign or sell any of their Insider Shares until, with respect to 50 % of the Insider Shares, the earlier of six months after the consummation of a Business Combination and the date on which the closing price of the common stock equals or exceeds $ 12.50 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period commencing after a Business Combination and, with respect to the remaining 50 % of the Insider Shares, until the six months after the consummation of a Business Combination, or earlier, in either case, if, subsequent to a Business Combination, the Company completes a liquidation, merger, stock exchange or other similar transaction which results in all of the Company’s stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of common stock for cash, securities or other property. Promissory Notes — Related Party On January 4, 2022 and February 28, 2022, the Sponsor agreed to loan the Company up to an aggregate amount of $ 200,000 to be used, in part, for transaction costs incurred in connection with the IPO (the “Promissory Notes”). The Promissory Notes were unsecured, interest-free and due on the closing the IPO. The Company repaid the outstanding balance of $ 200,000 to the Sponsor on April 7 and April 8, 2022. As of September 30, 2023, the Company had no borrowings under the Promissory Notes. On March 22, 2023, the Company issued an unsecured, non-interest bearing promissory note in the principal amount of $ 150,000 to the Sponsor (“Convertible Note 1”). On March 30, 2023, the Company issued an unsecured, non-interest bearing promissory note in the principal amount of $ 360,000 to the Sponsor (“Convertible Note 2”).

The holder of the promissory notes, in its sole discretion, may convert any or all of the unpaid principal under the promissory notes into Private Units of the Company, at a price of $ 10.00 per unit, upon consummation of the Business Combination. On May 15, 2023, the conversion feature of Convertible Note 1 and Convertible Note 2 was amended; the holder of the promissory notes, in its sole discretion, may convert any or all of the unpaid principal under the promissory notes into shares of common stock of the Company, at a conversion price of $ 10.00 per share, upon consummation of the Business Combination. 17 REDWOODS ACQUISITION CORP. NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS On June 28, 2023, the Company issued an unsecured, non-interest bearing promissory note in the principal amount of $ 360,000 to the Sponsor (“Convertible Note 3”). Convertible Note 3 is payable upon the closing of the Business Combination or the liquidation of the Company.

As of September 30, 2023, a total amount of $ 1,140,000 was outstanding under all five promissory notes. Related Party Loans In addition, in order to finance transaction costs in connection with searching for a target business or consummating an intended initial business combination, the initial stockholders, officers, directors or their affiliates may, but are not obligated to, loan us funds as may be required. In the event that the initial business combination does not close, the Company may use a portion of the working capital held outside the trust account to repay such loaned amounts, but no proceeds from the Trust Account would be used for such repayment. Such loans would be evidenced by promissory notes. The notes would either be paid upon consummation of our initial business combination, without interest, or, at the lender’s discretion, up to $ 500,000 of the notes may be converted upon consummation of the Company’s business combination into private units at a price of $ 10.00 per unit. The purchase price of these units will approximate the fair value of such units when issued. However, if it is determined, at the time of issuance, that the fair value of such units exceeds the purchase price, the Company would record compensation expense for the excess of the fair value of the units on the day of issuance over the purchase price in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 718 - Compensation - Stock Compensation. As of September 30, 2023, the Company had no borrowings under the working capital loans. Administrative Services Agreement The Company entered into an agreement, commencing on the effective date of the IPO through the earlier of the Company’s consummation of a Business Combination and its liquidation, to pay the Sponsor a total of $ 10,000 per month for office space, utilities, secretarial and administrative support. However, pursuant to the terms of such agreement, the Sponsor agreed to defer the payment of such monthly fee. Any such unpaid amount will accrue without interest and be due and payable no later than the date of the consummation of initial Business Combination. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company incurred $ 90,000 and $ 30,000 , respectively, in fees for these services, of which $ 180,000 and $ 90,000 were included in accrued expenses in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. 18 REDWOODS ACQUISITION CORP. NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Note 7 — Commitments and Contingencies Registration Rights The holders of the insider shares, the private units, securities underlying the Unit Purchase Option and any units that may be issued upon conversion of working capital loans or extension loans (and any securities underlying the private units or units issued upon conversion of the working capital loans or extension loans) will be entitled to registration rights pursuant to a registration rights agreement signed on the effective date of the IPO. The holders of a majority of these securities are entitled to make up to two demands (or one demand with respect to the securities underlying the Unit Purchase Option) that the Company register such securities. The holders of the majority of the Insider Shares can elect to exercise these registration rights at any time commencing three months prior to the date on which these shares of common stock are to be released from escrow. The holders of a majority of the private units and units issued in payment of working capital loans made to us can elect to exercise these registration rights at any time commencing on the date that the Company consummate an initial business combination. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to the consummation of an initial business combination. Furthermore, notwithstanding the foregoing, pursuant to FINRA Rule 5110, Chardan may not exercise its demand and “piggyback” registration rights after five and seven years, respectively, after the commencement of sales of this offering and may not exercise its demand rights on more than one occasion. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements. Underwriting Agreement Pursuant to an underwriting agreement in connection with the IPO, the Company granted Chardan, the representative of the underwriters, a 45-day option from the date of the prospectus for the IPO to purchase up to 1,500,000 additional Public Units to cover over-allotments, if any, at the IPO price less the underwriting discounts and commissions. On April 7, 2022, Chardan exercised the over-allotment option in full (see Note 4). The underwriters were paid a cash underwriting discount of 2.5 % of the gross proceeds of the IPO (including the exercise of the over-allotment option), or $ 2,875,000 . In addition, the underwriters will be entitled to a deferred fee of 3.75 % of the gross proceeds of the IPO (including the exercise of the over-allotment option), or $ 4,312,500 , which will be paid upon the closing of a Business Combination from the amounts held in the Trust Account, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement. Unit Purchase Option Simultaneously with the IPO (including the closing of the over-allotment option), the Company sold to Chardan, for $ 100 , an option (the “Unit Purchase Option”) to purchase 345,000 units exercisable at $ 11.50 per unit (or an aggregate exercise price of $ 3,967,500 ) commencing on the later of six months from the effective date of the registration statement related to the IPO and the consummation of a Business Combination. The Unit Purchase Option may be exercised for cash or on a cashless basis, at the holder’s option, and expires five years from the effective date of the registration statement related to the IPO. The units issuable upon exercise of the Unit Purchase Option are identical to those offered in the IPO. The Company accounts for the Unit Purchase Option, inclusive of the receipt of $ 100 cash payment, as an expense of the IPO resulting in a charge directly to stockholders’ equity. The Unit Purchase Option and such units purchased pursuant to the Unit Purchase Option, as well as the common stock underlying such units, the rights included in such units, the shares of common stock that are issuable for the rights included in such units, the warrants included in such units, and the shares underlying such warrants, have been deemed compensation by FINRA and are therefore subject to a 180-day lock-up pursuant to FINRA Rule 5110(e)(1). The Unit Purchase Option grants to holders demand and “piggy back” rights for periods of five and seven years, respectively, from the effective date of the registration statement with respect to the registration under the Securities Act of the securities directly and indirectly issuable upon exercise of the Unit Purchase Option. The Company will bear all fees and expenses attendant to registering the securities, other than underwriting commissions which will be paid for by the holders themselves. The exercise price and number of units issuable upon exercise of the Unit Purchase Option may be adjusted in certain circumstances including in the event of a stock dividend, or the Company’s recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation. However, the option will not be adjusted for issuances of common stock at a price below its exercise price. Right of First Refusal The Company has granted Chardan a right of first refusal, for a period of 18 months after the date of the consummation of a Business Combination, to act as a book-running manager or placement agent, with at least 30% of the economics, for any and all future public and private equity, equity linked and debt offerings of the Company or any of its successors or subsidiaries. 19 REDWOODS ACQUISITION CORP. NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Note 8 — Stockholders’ Equity Common Stock — The Company is authorized to issue 50,000,000 shares of common stock with a par value of $ 0.0001 per share. Holders of the common stock are entitled to one vote for each share. At September 30, 2023, there were 3,405,000 shares of common stock issued and outstanding (excluding 5,396,650 shares subject to possible redemption). Rights — Each holder of a right will receive one-tenth (1/10) of one share of common stock upon consummation of a Business Combination, even if the holder of such right redeemed all shares held by it in connection with a Business Combination. No fractional shares will be issued upon conversion of the rights. No additional consideration will be required to be paid by a holder of rights in order to receive its additional shares upon consummation of a Business Combination, as the consideration related thereto has been included in the unit purchase price paid for by investors in the IPO. If the Company enters into a definitive agreement for a Business Combination in which the Company will not be the surviving entity, the definitive agreement will provide for the holders of rights to receive the same per share consideration the holders of the common stock will receive in the transaction on an as-converted into common stock basis and each holder of a right will be required to affirmatively covert its rights in order to receive 1/10 share underlying each right (without paying additional consideration). The shares issuable upon conversion of the rights will be freely tradable (except to the extent held by affiliates of the Company). If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period and the Company liquidates the funds held in the Trust Account, holders of rights will not receive any of such funds with respect to their rights, nor will they receive any distribution from the Company’s assets held outside of the Trust Account with respect to such rights, and the rights will expire worthless. Further, there are no contractual penalties for failure to deliver securities to the holders of the rights upon consummation of a Business Combination. Additionally, in no event will the Company be required to net cash settle the rights. Accordingly, holders of the rights might not receive the shares of common stock underlying the rights. Warrants — Each redeemable warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one share of common stock at a price of $ 11.50 per share, subject to adjustment as described in this prospectus. The warrants will become exercisable on the later of the completion of an initial Business Combination and 12 months from the closing of the IPO. However, no Public Warrants will be exercisable for cash unless the Company has an effective and current registration statement covering the issuance of the common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants and a current prospectus relating to such common stock. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a registration statement covering the issuance of the common stock issuable upon exercise of the Public Warrants is not effective within 90 days from the closing of the Company’s initial Business Combination, warrant holders may, until such time as there is an effective registration statement and during any period when we shall have failed to maintain an effective registration statement, exercise warrants on a cashless basis pursuant to an available exemption from registration under the Securities Act. If an exemption from registration is not available, holders will not be able to exercise their warrants on a cashless basis. The warrants will expire five years from the closing of the Company’s initial Business Combination at 5:00 p.m., New York City time or earlier redemption. In addition, if (x) the Company issues additional shares of common stock or equity-linked securities for capital raising purposes in connection with the closing of the Company’s initial Business Combination at an issue price or effective issue price of less than $ 9.50 per share (with such issue price or effective issue price to be determined in good faith by our board of directors), (y) the aggregate gross proceeds from such issuances represent more than 60 % of the total equity proceeds, and interest thereon, available for the funding of the Company’s initial Business Combination, and (z) the volume weighted average trading price of the Company’s common stock during the 20 trading day period starting on the trading day prior to the day on which the Company consummates its initial Business Combination (such price, the “Market Price”) is below $ 9.50 per share, the exercise price of the warrants will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 115 % of the Market Price, and the $ 16.50 per share redemption trigger price described below will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 165 % of the Market Value. The Company may redeem the outstanding Public Warrants at any time while the warrants are exercisable: ● in whole and not in part; ● at a price of $ 0.01 per warrant; 20 REDWOODS ACQUISITION CORP. NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ● upon a minimum of 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption, which the Company refers to as the 30-day redemption period; ● if, and only if, the last reported sale price of the Company’s common stock equals or exceeds $16.50 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which the Company sends the notice of redemption to the to the warrant holders. If the Company calls the Public Warrants for redemption, management will have the option to require all holders that wish to exercise the Public Warrants to do so on a “cashless basis,” as described in the warrant agreement. In such event, each holder would pay the exercise price by surrendering the whole warrants for that number of shares of common stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the product of the number of shares of common stock underlying the warrants, multiplied by the difference between the exercise price of the warrants and the “fair market value” (defined below) by (y) the fair market value. The “fair market value” shall mean the average reported last sale price of the common stock for the 10 trading days ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which the notice of redemption is sent to the holders of warrants. Except as described above, no warrants will be exercisable and the Company will not be obligated to issue common stock unless at the time a holder seeks to exercise such warrant, a prospectus relating to the common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants is current and the common stock have been registered or qualified or deemed to be exempt under the securities laws of the state of residence of the holder of the warrants. Under the terms of the warrant agreement, the Company has agreed to use its best efforts to meet these conditions and to maintain a current prospectus relating to the common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants until the expiration of the warrants. However, the Company cannot assure that it will be able to do so and, if the Company does not maintain a current prospectus relating to the common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants, holders will be unable to exercise their warrants and the Company will not be required to settle any such warrant exercise. If the prospectus relating to the common stock issuable upon the exercise of the warrants is not current or if the common stock is not qualified or exempt from qualification in the jurisdictions in which the holders of the warrants reside, the Company will not be required to net cash settle or cash settle the warrant exercise, the warrants may have no value, the market for the warrants may be limited and the warrants may expire worthless. The private warrants have terms and provisions that are identical to those of the warrants being sold as part of the units in the IPO, except that the private warrants (i) will be exercisable either for cash or on a cashless basis at the holder’s option and (ii) will not be redeemable by the Company, in either case as long as the private warrants are held by the initial purchasers or any of their permitted transferees. Note 9 — Fair Value Measurements The fair value of the Company’s consolidated financial assets and liabilities reflects management’s estimate of amounts that the Company would have received in connection with the sale of the assets or paid in connection with the transfer of the liabilities in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In connection with measuring the fair value of its assets and liabilities, the Company seeks to maximize the use of observable inputs (market data obtained from independent sources) and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs (internal assumptions about how market participants would price assets and liabilities). The following fair value hierarchy is used to classify assets and liabilities based on the observable inputs and unobservable inputs used in order to value the assets and liabilities: Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. An active market for an asset or liability is a market in which transactions for the asset or liability occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis. Level 2: Observable inputs other than Level 1 inputs. Examples of Level 2 inputs include quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities and quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active. Level 3: Unobservable inputs based on the assessment of the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. 21 REDWOODS ACQUISITION CORP. NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The following table presents information about the Company’s liabilities that are measured at fair value on September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation inputs the Company utilized to determine such fair value: September 30, 2023 Quoted Prices in Active Markets (Level 1) Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2) Significant Other Unobservable Inputs (Level 3) Liabilities: Warrant liability $ 74,200 — — $ 74,200 December 31, 2022 Quoted Prices in Active Markets (Level 1) Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2) Significant Other Unobservable Inputs (Level 3) Liabilities: Warrant liability $ 31,800 — — $ 31,800 The private warrants are accounted for as liabilities in accordance with ASC 815-40 and are presented within warrant liabilities on the balance sheet. Changes in the fair value of the warrants are recorded in the statement of operations each period. The table below shows the change in fair value of warrant liabilities as of September 30, 2023: Private Warrants Total Fair value at January 1, 2023 $ 31,800 $ 31,800 Change in fair value 42,400 42,400 Fair value as of September 30, 2023 $ 74,200 $ 74,200 The Company established the initial fair value for the private warrants at $ 587,717 (including over-allotment) on April 4, 2022, the date of the Company’s IPO, using the Black-Scholes model. The Company allocated the proceeds received from the sale of Private Units, first to the private warrants based on their fair values as determined at initial measurement, with the remaining proceeds recorded as common shares subject to possible redemption, and common shares based on their relative fair values recorded at the initial measurement date. The warrants were classified as Level 3 at the initial measurement date due to the use of unobservable inputs. The key inputs into the Black-Scholes model were as follows at their measurement date: September 30, 2023 April 4, 2022 (initial measurement) Exercise Price $ 11.50 $ 11.50 Underlying share price $ 10.67 $ 8.08 Expected Volatility 5.24 % 25.62 % Warrant life (years) 5.0 5.0 Risk-free rate 4.60 % 2.42 % 22 REDWOODS ACQUISITION CORP. NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The fair value of the Convertible Note 1 was estimated at the as converted value at March 31, 2023 and initial measurement date of March 22, 2023 to be $ 13,930 and $ 13,910 , respectively. The fair value of the Convertible Note 2 was estimated at the as converted value at March 31, 2023 and initial measurement date of March 30, 2023 to be $ 33,400 and $ 33,400 , respectively. The binomial tree model was used for the underlying warrants based on the following key assumptions which were unchanged as of March 31, 2023. March 30, 2023 Convertible Note 2 March 22, 2023 Convertible Note 1 Strike Price $ 10.00 $ 10.00 Spot Price $ 10.28 $ 10.26 Time to maturity 0.68 0.70 Business combination success rate 9 % 9 % Expected Volatility 5.0 % 5.0 % Expected dividend rate 0 % 0 % Risk-free rate 4.8 % 4.7 % The following table presents the changes in the fair value of the Level 3 Convertible Notes: Fair value as of January 1, 2023 $ — Proceeds received through Convertible Note 1 on March 22, 2023 150,000 Proceeds received through Convertible Note 2 on March 30, 2023 360,000 Change in valuation inputs or other assumptions ( 462,670 ) Fair value as of March 31, 2023 $ 47,330 As a result of amendments to the conversion feature of Convertible Note 1 and Convertible Note 2, a remeasurement under ASC 825 has occurred and the previously selected fair value option is no longer applied. The convertible promissory notes were recorded as debt (liability) at cash proceeds on the balance sheet effective May 15, 2023. As of September 30, 2023, the Convertible Note 1 and Convertible Note 2 were recorded at $ 150,000 and $ 360,000 , respectively, based on the cash proceeds on March 22, 2023 and March 30, 2023. Note 10 — Subsequent Events In accordance with ASC 855, “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. Based on this review, as further disclosed in the footnotes and except as disclosed below, the Company did not identify any subsequent events that would have required disclosure in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. On November 1, 2023, the Sponsor made a deposit of $ 120,000 into the Trust Account to further extend the business combination period from November 4, 2023 to December 4, 2023. On November 4, 2023, Redwoods entered into Amendment No. 1 to the Business Combination (the “Amendment”) with the other parties thereto. The Amendment extends the termination date under the Business Combination Agreement from November 4, 2023 to March 4, 2024 (the “Termination Date”); provided, further, that (i) the right to terminate the Business Combination Agreement will not be available to Redwoods if any Redwoods party’s breach of any of its covenants or obligations under the Business Combination Agreement will have proximately caused the failure to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement on or before the Termination Date, and (ii) the right to terminate the Business Combination Agreement will not be available to the Company if the Company’s breach of its covenants or obligations under the Business Combination Agreement will have proximately caused the failure to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement on or before the Termination Date. On November 13, 2023, the Company held a special meeting of stockholders, at which the Company’s stockholders approved (i) the Second Extension Amendment and (ii) the Second Trust Amendment. In connection with the stockholders’ vote at the special meeting, an aggregate of 3,636,456 shares with redemption value of approximately $ 39,255,410 (or $ 10.79 per share) of the Company’s common stock were tendered for redemption. Following the special meeting on November 13, 2023, the Company and the Trustee entered into the Second Trust Amendment and the Company filed the Second Extension Amendment with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware which became effective upon filing. Pursuant to the Second Extension Amendment, the Company is permitted to extend the date by which the Company must consummate an initial business combination on a monthly basis up to twelve times from December 4, 2023 to December 4, 2024 by depositing $ 35,000 for each monthly extension in accordance with the terms of the Second Trust Amendment. 23
