IB Acquisition Corp. 10-K

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures Disclosure controls are procedures that are designed with the objective of ensuring that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time period specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls are also designed with the objective of ensuring that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial and accounting officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the fiscal year ended September 30, 2025, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial and accounting officer have concluded that during the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at a reasonable assurance level, due to inadequate segregation of duties within account processes due to limited personnel and insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting, IT, and financial reporting and record keeping. 55 Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2025 covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. Management’s Report on Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting As required by SEC rules and regulations implementing Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Our internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of our financial statements for external reporting purposes in accordance with GAAP. Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that: (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of our company, (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors, and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect errors or misstatements in our financial statements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree or compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting at September 30, 2025. In making these assessments, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013). Based on our assessments and those criteria, management determined that we did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2025 due to inadequate segregation of duties within account processes due to limited personnel and insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting, IT, and financial reporting and record keeping. This Annual Report on Form 10-K does not include an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm due to our status as an emerging growth company under the JOBS Act. Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. ITEM 9B. OTHER INFORMATION. During the period covered by this Annual Report, none of the Company’s directors or executive officers has adopted or terminated a Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement or a non-Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement (each as defined in Item 408 of Regulation S-K under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended). ITEM 9C. DISCLOSURE REGARDING FOREIGN JURISDICTIONS THAT PREVENT INSPECTIONS. Not applicable. 56 PART III ITEM 10.

We may not hold an annual meeting of stockholders until after we consummate our initial business combination. Our officers are elected by the board of directors and serve at the discretion of the board of directors, rather than for specific terms of office. Our board of directors is authorized to appoint persons to the offices set forth in our bylaws as it deems appropriate. 58 Director Independence The Nasdaq listing standards require that a majority of our board of directors be independent. An “independent director” is defined generally as a person other than an officer or employee of the company or its subsidiaries or any other individual having a relationship which in the opinion of the company’s board of directors, would interfere with the director’s exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director. Our board of directors have determined that Mr. Joyce, Ms. Panigone, and Mr. Zhang are “independent directors” as defined in the Nasdaq listing standards and applicable SEC rules. Our independent directors have regularly scheduled meetings at which only independent directors are present. Executive Officer and Director Compensation None of our executive officers or directors have received any cash compensation for services rendered to us. Until the earlier of consummation of our initial business combination and our liquidation, beginning at the time of the IPO closing, we will pay Christy Albeck, our Chief Financial Officer, a total of up to $5,000 per month for office space, utilities, secretarial support and other administrative and consulting services. Our executive officers and directors, or any of their respective affiliates, will be reimbursed for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with activities on our behalf such as identifying potential target businesses and performing due diligence on suitable business combinations. Our audit committee will review on a quarterly basis all payments that were made to our initial stockholders, officers, directors or their affiliates. After the completion of our initial business combination, directors or members of our management team who remain with us may be paid consulting, management or other fees from the combined company. All of these fees will be fully disclosed to stockholders, to the extent then known, in the tender offer materials or proxy solicitation materials furnished to our stockholders in connection with a proposed business combination. It is unlikely the amount of such compensation will be known at the time, because the directors of the post-combination business will be responsible for determining executive officer and director compensation. Any compensation to be paid to our executive officers will be determined by a compensation committee constituted solely by independent directors. We do not intend to take any action to ensure that members of our management team maintain their positions with us after the consummation of our initial business combination, although it is possible that some or all of our executive officers and directors may negotiate employment or consulting arrangements to remain with us after the initial business combination. The existence or terms of any such employment or consulting arrangements to retain their positions with us may influence our management’s motivation in identifying or selecting a target business but we do not believe that the ability of our management to remain with us after the consummation of our initial business combination will be a determining factor in our decision to proceed with any potential business combination. We are not party to any agreements with our executive officers and directors that provide for benefits upon termination of employment. Committees of the Board of Directors Our board of directors has three standing committees: an audit committee, a compensation committee and a nominating and corporate governance committee. Each committee operates under a charter that has been approved by our board and has the composition and responsibilities described below. Our audit committee, compensation committee and nominating and corporate governance committee is composed solely of independent directors. Audit Committee The members of our audit committee are Silvia Panigone, Jian Zhang, and John Joyce. John Joyce serves as chair of the audit committee. Under the Nasdaq listing standards and applicable SEC rules, we are required to have at least three members on the audit committee. The rules of Nasdaq and Rule 10A-3 of the Exchange Act require that the audit committee of a listed company be comprised solely of independent directors. Silvia Panigone, Jian Zhang, and John Joyce qualify as independent directors under applicable rules. Each member of the audit committee is financially literate and our board of directors has determined that Dr. Chung qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert” as defined in applicable SEC rules. 59 We have adopted an audit committee charter, which details the principal functions of the audit committee, including: ● the appointment, compensation, retention, replacement, and oversight of the work of the independent registered accounting firm and any other independent registered public accounting firm engaged by us; ● pre-approving all audit and non-audit services to be provided by the independent registered accounting firm or any other registered public accounting firm engaged by us, and establishing pre-approval policies and procedures; ● reviewing and discussing with the independent registered accounting firm all relationships the auditors have with us in order to evaluate their continued independence; ● setting clear hiring policies for employees or former employees of the independent registered accounting firm; ● setting clear policies for audit partner rotation in compliance with applicable laws and regulations; ● obtaining and reviewing a report, at least annually, from the independent registered accounting firm describing (i) the independent registered accounting firm’s internal quality-control procedures and (ii) any material issues raised by the most recent internal quality-control review, or peer review, of the audit firm, or by any inquiry or investigation by governmental or professional authorities, within, the preceding five years respecting one or more independent audits carried out by the firm and any steps taken to deal with such issues; ● reviewing and approving any related party transaction required to be disclosed pursuant to Item 404 of Regulation S-K promulgated by the SEC prior to us entering into such transaction; and ● reviewing with management, the independent registered accounting firm, and our legal advisors, as appropriate, any legal, regulatory or compliance matters, including any correspondence with regulators or government agencies and any employee complaints or published reports that raise material issues regarding our financial statements or accounting policies and any significant changes in accounting standards or rules promulgated by the Financial Accounting Standards Board, the SEC or other regulatory authorities. Compensation Committee The members of our Compensation Committee are Silvia Panigone, Jian Zhang, and John Joyce. John Joyce serves as chair of the compensation committee. Under the Nasdaq listing standards and applicable SEC rules, we are required to have at least two members on the compensation committee, all of whom must be independent. We have adopted a compensation committee charter, which details the principal functions of the compensation committee, including: ● reviewing and approving on an annual basis the corporate goals and objectives relevant to our Chief Executive Officer’s compensation, evaluating our Chief Executive Officer’s performance in light of such goals and objectives and determining and approving the remuneration (if any) of our Chief Executive Officer’s based on such evaluation; ● reviewing and approving the compensation of all of our other executive officers; ● reviewing our executive compensation policies and plans; ● implementing and administering our incentive compensation equity-based remuneration plans; 60 ● assisting management in complying with our proxy statement and annual report disclosure requirements; ● approving all special perquisites, special cash payments and other special compensation and benefit arrangements for our executive officers and employees; ● producing a report on executive compensation to be included in our annual proxy statement; and ● reviewing, evaluating and recommending changes, if appropriate, to the remuneration for directors. The charter also provides that the compensation committee may, in its sole discretion, retain or obtain the advice of a compensation consultant, legal counsel or other adviser and will be directly responsible for the appointment, compensation and oversight of the work of any such adviser. However, before engaging or receiving advice from a compensation consultant, external legal counsel or any other adviser, the compensation committee will consider the independence of each such adviser, including the factors required by Nasdaq and the SEC. Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee The members of our nominating and corporate governance are Silvia Panigone, Jian Zhang, and John Joyce. John Joyce serves as chair of the nominating and corporate governance committee. The primary purposes of our nominating and corporate governance committee will be to assist the board in: ● identifying, screening and reviewing individuals qualified to serve as directors and recommending to the board of directors candidates for nomination for election at the annual meeting of stockholders or to fill vacancies on the board of directors; ● developing, recommending to the board of directors and overseeing implementation of our corporate governance guidelines; ● coordinating and overseeing the annual self-evaluation of the board of directors, its committees, individual directors and management in the governance of the company; and ● reviewing on a regular basis our overall corporate governance and recommending improvements as and when necessary. The nominating and corporate governance committee is governed by a charter that complies with the rules of Nasdaq. Director Nominations Our nominating and corporate governance committee will recommend to the board of directors candidates for nomination for election at the annual meeting of the stockholders. The board of directors will also consider director candidates recommended for nomination by our stockholders during such times as they are seeking proposed nominees to stand for election at the next annual meeting of stockholders (or, if applicable, a special meeting of stockholders). We have not formally established any specific, minimum qualifications that must be met or skills that are necessary for directors to possess. In general, in identifying and evaluating nominees for director, the board of directors considers educational background, diversity of professional experience, knowledge of our business, integrity, professional reputation, independence, wisdom, and the ability to represent the best interests of our stockholders. Prior to our initial business combination, holders of our public shares will not have the right to recommend director candidates for nomination to our board of directors. 61 Code of Ethics We have adopted a Code of Ethics applicable to our directors, officers and employees. We have filed a copy of our form of Code of Ethics and our audit committee charter as exhibits to the registration statement we filed in connection with our initial public offering. You are able to review these documents by accessing our public filings at the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov . In addition, a copy of the Code of Ethics will be provided without charge upon request from us. We intend to disclose any amendments to or waivers of certain provisions of our Code of Ethics in a Current Report on Form 8-K. Conflicts of Interest In general, officers and directors of a corporation incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada are required to present business opportunities to a corporation if: ● the corporation could financially undertake the opportunity; ● the opportunity is within the corporation’s line of business; and ● it would not be fair to the corporation and its stockholders for the opportunity not to be brought to the attention of the corporation. In relation to the foregoing, our amended and restated articles of incorporation provides that: ● we renounce any interest or expectancy in, or being offered an opportunity to participate in, any business opportunities that are presented to us or our officers or directors or stockholders or affiliates thereof, including but not limited to, our initial stockholders and their affiliates, except as may be prescribed by any written agreement with us; and ● our officers and directors will not be liable to our company or our stockholders for monetary damages for breach of any fiduciary duty by reason of any of our activities or any of our initial stockholders or their affiliates to the fullest extent permitted by Nevada law. Each of our officers and directors presently has, and any of them in the future may have additional, fiduciary or contractual obligations to another entity, pursuant to which such officer or director is or will be required to present a business combination opportunity to such entity. Accordingly, if any of our officers or directors becomes aware of a business combination opportunity which is suitable for an entity to which he or she has then-current fiduciary or contractual obligations, he or she will honor these fiduciary obligations under applicable law. Our amended and restated articles of incorporation provide that we renounce our interest in any corporate opportunity offered to any director or officer unless such opportunity is expressly offered to such person solely in his or her capacity as a director or officer of our company and such opportunity is one we are legally and contractually permitted to undertake and would otherwise be reasonable for us to pursue. 62 The following table summarizes the relevant pre-existing fiduciary or contractual obligations of our officers and directors: Individual Entity Position at affiliated entity Adelmo “Al” Lopez Finca Terrerito/Alma Coffee LLC Chairman & Chief Executive Officer Worldwide Business Advisory Services LLC Chairman & Founder Christy Albeck Albeck Financial Services Inc. Founder & Chief Executive Officer Calabrese Consulting Partner Albeck Advisors Founder & Managing Member Silvia Panigone ADYA Consulting SAGL Chief Executive Officer & Founder NLS Pharmaceutics Chief Operating Officer Inhalis Therapeutics SA Chief Executive Officer Teoresi SPA Board Member Outcome Capital Managing Director & Advisor Jian Zhang Yunnan Xiaosen Venture Capital Co., Ltd Chief Executive Officer Hangzhou Hechuang Investment Management Co., Ltd Chief Executive Officer Yunnan Jimaoxin Information Technology Co., Ltd Director Shenzhen Zenyi Tonglian Technology Co., Ltd Director Zhuhai Meining Technology Co., Ltd Director Distoken Acquisition Corporation Chairman & Chief Executive Officer John Joyce NetX Fund Executive Chairman Globality, Inc. Director St. Thomas Aquinas Academy Vice Chairman Our initial stockholders, officers and directors may sponsor, form or participate in other blank check companies similar to ours during the period in which we are seeking an initial business combination. Any such companies may present additional conflicts of interest in pursuing an acquisition target, particularly in the event there is overlap among investment mandates. Any such companies may present additional conflicts of interest in pursuing an acquisition target. However, we do not currently expect that any such other special purpose acquisition company would materially affect our ability to complete our initial business combination. In addition, our initial stockholders, officers and directors, are not required to commit any specified amount of time to our affairs, and, accordingly, may have conflicts of interest in allocating management time among various business activities, including identifying potential business combinations and monitoring the related due diligence. 63 Potential investors should also be aware of the following other potential conflicts of interest: ● None of our officers or directors is required to commit his or her full time to our affairs and, accordingly, may have conflicts of interest in allocating his or her time among various business activities. ● Our sponsor subscribed for founder shares prior to the date of this prospectus and will purchase private placement units in a transaction that will close simultaneously with the closing of our initial public offering. ● Our initial stockholders and I-Bankers have agreed to waive their redemption rights with respect to their founder shares, private placement shares, Representative shares and any public shares they hold in connection with the consummation of our initial business combination. Additionally, our initial stockholders and I-Bankers have agreed to waive their redemption rights with respect to their founder shares, private placement shares and Representative shares if we fail to consummate our initial business combination within the combination period, although they will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the trust account with respect to any public shares they hold. If we do not complete our initial business combination within such applicable time period, the proceeds of the sale of the private placement units will be used to fund the redemption of our public shares, and the private placement units (and its underlying securities) will expire worthless. With certain limited exceptions, the founder shares will not be transferable, assignable or salable by our initial stockholders until the earlier of (1) six months after the completion of our initial business combination and (2) the date on which we consummate a liquidation, merger, capital stock exchange, reorganization, or other similar transaction after our initial business combination that results in all of our stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of common stock for cash, securities or other property. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the last sale price of our common stock equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after our initial business combination, the founder shares will be released from the lock-up. With certain limited exceptions, the private placement units and the securities underlying such units will not be transferable, assignable or salable by our initial stockholders until 30 days after the completion of our initial business combination. The private placement units attributable to members of our sponsor who are associated persons of I-Bankers, the representative of the underwriters, will be further subject to certain limitations imposed by FINRA Rule 5110. Since our initial stockholders and officers and directors may directly or indirectly own common stock, rights and private placement units (including its underlying securities) following our initial public offering, our officers and directors may have a conflict of interest in determining whether a particular target business is an appropriate business with which to effectuate our initial business combination. ● Our officers and directors may have a conflict of interest with respect to evaluating a particular business combination if the retention or resignation of any such officers and directors was included by a target business as a condition to any agreement with respect to our initial business combination. ● Our sponsor, officers or directors may have a conflict of interest with respect to evaluating a business combination and financing arrangements as we may obtain loans from such individuals or an affiliate of our sponsor, officers or directors to finance transaction costs in connection with an intended initial business combination. Up to $1,500,000 of such loans may be, at the option of the lender, convertible into placement units at a price of $10.00 per unit but not sooner than 60 (sixty) days after the effectiveness of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part. Such units would be identical to the private placement units. ● Our initial stockholders, officers and directors may be owed reimbursement for expenses incurred in connection with certain activities on our behalf which would only be repaid if we complete an initial business combination. ● Our officers and directors may be paid consulting, finder or success fees for assisting us in consummating our initial business combination. The conflicts described above may not be resolved in our favor. 64 We are not prohibited from pursuing an initial business combination with a company that is affiliated with our initial stockholders, officers or directors. In the event we seek to complete our initial business combination with such a company, we, or a committee of independent directors, would obtain an opinion from an independent investment banking firm, or from an independent accounting firm, that such an initial business combination is fair to our company from a financial point of view. In the event that we submit our initial business combination to our public stockholders for a vote, our initial stockholders have agreed to vote their founder shares, private placement shares, and any public shares purchased in or after our initial public offering in favor of our initial business combination. Limitation on Liability and Indemnification of Officers and Directors Our amended and restated articles of incorporation provide that our officers and directors will be indemnified by us to the fullest extent authorized by Nevada law, as it now exists or may in the future be amended. In addition, our amended and restated articles of incorporation provide that our directors will not be personally liable for monetary damages to us for breaches of their fiduciary duty as directors, except to the extent such exemption from liability or limitation thereof is not permitted by the NRS. We entered into agreements with our officers and directors to provide contractual indemnification in addition to the indemnification provided for in our amended and restated certificate of incorporation. Our bylaws also permit us to maintain insurance on behalf of any officer, director or employee for any liability arising out of his or her actions, regardless of whether Nevada law would permit such indemnification. We have obtained a policy of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance that insures our officers and directors against the cost of defense, settlement or payment of a judgment in some circumstances and insures us against our obligations to indemnify our officers and directors. These provisions may discourage stockholders from bringing a lawsuit against our directors for breach of their fiduciary duty. These provisions also may have the effect of reducing the likelihood of derivative litigation against officers and directors, even though such an action, if successful, might otherwise benefit us and our stockholders. Furthermore, a stockholder’s investment may be adversely affected to the extent we pay the costs of settlement and damage awards against officers and directors pursuant to these indemnification provisions. We believe that these provisions, the directors’ and officers’ liability insurance and the indemnity agreements are necessary to attract and retain talented and experienced officers and directors. ITEM 11. EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION Executive Officer and Director Compensation None of our executive officers or directors have received any cash compensation for services rendered to us. Until the earlier of consummation of our initial business combination and our liquidation, beginning on the closing date of our initial public offering, we had agreed to pay Christy Albeck a total of $5,000 per month for office space, utilities, secretarial support and other administrative and consulting services. Our executive officers and directors, or any of their respective affiliates, will be reimbursed for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with activities on our behalf such as identifying potential target businesses and performing due diligence on suitable business combinations. Our audit committee will review on a quarterly basis all payments that were made to our sponsor, officers, directors or their affiliates. After the completion of our initial business combination, directors or members of our management team who remain with us may be paid consulting, management or other fees from the combined company. All of these fees will be fully disclosed to stockholders, to the extent then known, in the tender offer materials or proxy solicitation materials furnished to our stockholders in connection with a proposed business combination. It is unlikely the amount of such compensation will be known at the time, because the directors of the post-combination business will be responsible for determining executive officer and director compensation. Any compensation to be paid to our executive officers will be determined by a compensation committee constituted solely by independent directors. We do not intend to take any action to ensure that members of our management team maintain their positions with us after the consummation of our initial business combination, although it is possible that some or all of our executive officers and directors may negotiate employment or consulting arrangements to remain with us after the initial business combination. The existence or terms of any such employment or consulting arrangements to retain their positions with us may influence our management’s motivation in identifying or selecting a target business but we do not believe that the ability of our management to remain with us after the consummation of our initial business combination will be a determining factor in our decision to proceed with any potential business combination. We are not party to any agreements with our executive officers and directors that provide for benefits upon termination of employment. Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation None of our executive officers currently serves, and in the past year has not served, as a member of the board of directors or compensation committee of any entity that has one or more executive officers serving on our board of directors. 65 ITEM 12.

(4) Our officers and directors are members of our sponsor, I-B Good Works 4, LLC, and indirectly hold interests in the Company as follows: Al Lopez holds a 4.62% equity interest, which represents the right to receive 150,000 founder shares; Christy Albeck holds a 2.31% equity interest, which represents the right to receive 75,000 founder shares; Silvia Panigone holds a 1.54% equity interest, which represents the right to receive 50,000 founder shares; Jian Zhang holds a 1.54% equity interest, which represents the right to receive 50,000 founder shares; and John Joyce holds a 3.08% equity interest, which represents the right to receive 100,000 founder shares. In addition to the interest held by Jian Zhang representing the right to receive founder shares, Jian Zhang, through an affiliate, holds a 26.8% equity interest in our sponsor, which represents the right to receive 869,565 founder shares and 200,000 private placement units. Each of our officers and directors disclaims any beneficial ownership other than to the extent of his or her pecuniary interest in our sponsor. (5) On February 28, 2024 the sponsor distributed 1,016,514 founder shares to one of its members, James Michael McCrory, resulting in Mr. McCrory holding his founder shares directly rather than indirectly through the sponsor. 66 ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE On September 2, 2020, our sponsor subscribed to purchase an aggregate of 4,312,500 founder shares for a subscription price of $3,000. Prior to the above investment in the company, we had no assets, tangible or intangible. On October 26, 2023, our sponsor agreed to surrender an aggregate of 1,068,910 shares of our common stock for no consideration, which were cancelled, resulting in our sponsor holding an aggregate of 3,243,590 founder shares. Our sponsor purchased an aggregate of 610,500 private placement units, at a price of $10.00 per unit ($6,105,000 in the aggregate), in a private placement that closed simultaneously with the closing of our initial public offering. The private placement units (including the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the private placement units) may not, subject to certain limited exceptions, be transferred, assigned, or sold until 30 days after the completion of our initial business combination. If any of our officers or directors becomes aware of a business combination opportunity that falls within the line of business of any entity to which he or she has then-current fiduciary or contractual obligations, he or she may be required to present such business combination opportunity to such entity prior to presenting such business combination opportunity to us. Our executive officers and directors currently have certain relevant fiduciary duties or contractual obligations that may take priority over their duties to us. From October 2023 through January 2024, the Company’s sponsor entered into six subscription agreements to sell membership interests in the sponsor to the Company’s management, directors and director nominees. The membership interests represent the indirect equivalent of 500,000 founders shares which equates to 15.4% of the 3,243,590 founders shares (with over-allotment) issued and outstanding. The total purchase price paid for the membership interests was $2,500. On January 22, 2024, one of the subscription agreements representing an indirect equivalent of 100,000 founders shares or 3.08% of the 3,243,590 founders shares (with over-allotment) issued and outstanding was terminated and $500 was paid to the subscriber as a result of the termination of the agreement. We entered into an Administrative Services Agreement pursuant to which we pay Christy Albeck, our Chief Financial Officer, a total of $5,000 per month for office space, utilities, secretarial support and other administrative and consulting services. Upon completion of our initial business combination or our liquidation, we will cease paying these monthly fees. Accordingly, in the event the consummation of our initial business combination takes a maximum of 24 months, Christy Albeck will be paid a total of $120,000 ($5,000 per month) for office space, utilities, secretarial support and other administrative and consulting services and will be entitled to be reimbursed for any out-of-pocket expenses. Our initial stockholders, executive officers and directors, or any of their respective affiliates, will be reimbursed for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with activities on our behalf such as identifying potential target businesses and performing due diligence on suitable business combinations. Our audit committee will review on a quarterly basis all payments that were made to our sponsor, officers, directors or our or their affiliates and will determine which expenses and the amount of expenses that will be reimbursed. There is no cap or ceiling on the reimbursement of out-of-pocket expenses incurred by such persons in connection with activities on our behalf. In addition, in order to finance transaction costs in connection with an intended initial business combination, our sponsor or an affiliate of our sponsor or certain of our officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan us funds as may be required. If we complete an initial business combination, we would repay such loaned amounts. In the event that the initial 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 loans may be, at the option of the lender, convertible into units at a price of $10.00 per unit of the post business combination entity. The units would be identical to the private placement units. The terms of such loans, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such loans. We do not expect to seek loans from parties other than our sponsor or an affiliate of our sponsor or certain officers and directors as we do not believe third parties will be willing to loan such funds and provide a waiver against any and all rights to seek access to funds in our trust account. 67 We have engaged I-Bankers in connection with our business combination to assist us in holding meetings with our stockholders to discuss the potential business combination and the target business’ attributes, introduce us to potential investors that are interested in purchasing our securities in connection with our initial business combination, assist us in obtaining stockholder approval for the business combination and assist us with our press releases and public filings in connection with the business combination. The scope of engagement excludes identifying and/or evaluating possible acquisition candidates. Pursuant to our agreement with I-Bankers, the M&A fee payable to I-Bankers will be 3.5% of the gross proceeds of our initial public offering. If a business combination is consummated with a target introduced to us by I-Bankers, we will also pay I-Bankers a finder fee equal to 1% of the consideration issued to the target. We may pay consulting, finder or success fees to our initial stockholders, officers, directors or their affiliates for assisting us in consummating our initial business combination. Other than these consulting, finder or success fees, no compensation of any kind will be paid by us to our initial stockholders, executive officers and directors, or any of their respective affiliates, for services rendered prior to or in connection with the completion of an initial business combination. However, these individuals will be reimbursed for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with activities on our behalf such as identifying potential target businesses and performing due diligence on suitable business combinations. Our audit committee will review on a quarterly basis all payments that were made to our initial stockholders, officers, directors or our or their affiliates. After our initial business combination, members of our management team who remain with us may be paid consulting, management or other fees from the combined company with any and all amounts being fully disclosed to our stockholders, to the extent then known, in the tender offer or proxy solicitation materials, as applicable, furnished to our stockholders. It is unlikely the amount of such compensation will be known at the time of distribution of such tender offer materials or at the time of a stockholder meeting held to consider our initial business combination, as applicable, as it will be up to the directors of the post-combination business to determine executive officer and director compensation. We entered into a registration rights agreement with respect to the founder shares and private placement units (and underlying securities). Policy for Approval of Related Party Transactions The audit committee of our board of directors has adopted a policy setting forth the policies and procedures for its review and approval or ratification of “related party transactions.” Pursuant to the policy, the audit committee will consider (i) the relevant facts and circumstances of each related party transaction, including if the transaction is on terms comparable to those that could be obtained in arm’s-length dealings with an unrelated third party, (ii) the extent of the related party’s interest in the transaction, (iii) whether the transaction contravenes our code of ethics or other policies, (iv) whether the audit committee believes the relationship underlying the transaction to be in the best interests of the company and its stockholders and (v) the effect that the transaction may have on a director’s status as an independent member of the board and on his or her eligibility to serve on the board’s committees. Management will present to the audit committee each proposed related party transaction, including all relevant facts and circumstances relating thereto. Under the policy, we may consummate related party transactions only if our audit committee approves or ratifies the transaction in accordance with the guidelines set forth in the policy. The policy will not permit any director or executive officer to participate in the discussion of, or decision concerning, a related person transaction in which he or she is the related party.

ITEM 16. FORM 10-K SUMMARY None. 69 IB ACQUISITION CORP. INDEX TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm (PCAOB ID 206 ) F-2 Financial Statements: Balance Sheets as of September 30, 2025 and 2024 F-3 Statements of Operations for the years ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 F-4 Statements of Changes in Stockholders’ (Deficit) Equity for the years ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 F-5 Statements of Cash Flows for the years ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 F-6 Notes to Financial Statements F-7 to F-20 F- 1 REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of IB Acquisition Corp. Opinion on the Financial Statements We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of IB Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) as of September 30, 2025 and 2024, and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ (deficit) equity, and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of September 30, 2025 and 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Going Concern Matter The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As more fully described in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company currently lacks the liquidity it needs to sustain operations for a reasonable period of time and the Company’s business plan is dependent on the completion of a business combination within a prescribed period of time and if not completed will cease all operations except for the purpose of liquidating which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Basis for Opinion These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. /s/ MaloneBailey LLP www.malonebailey.com We have served as the Company’s auditor since 2024.

F- 6 NOTE 1. DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS IB Acquisition Corp. f/k/a I-B Good Works 4 Corporation (the “Company”) is a blank check company originally incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on July 7, 2020 and which converted to a Nevada corporation on September 21, 2023 for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses (the “Business Combination”). The Company has not selected any potential business combination target, and the Company has not, nor has anyone on its behalf, initiated any substantive discussions, directly or indirectly, with any potential business combination target with respect to an initial business combination with the Company. The Company’s investment strategy is not specific to any sector, however, the management team and board members believe there are compelling investment opportunities in a number of areas including consumer goods, sports and entertainment, and healthcare technology. The Company anticipates targeting companies domiciled in North America, Europe and Asia, with an enterprise value of at least $ 500 million. As of September 30, 2025, the Company had not yet commenced any operations. All activity through September 30, 2025, relates to the Company’s formation, initial public offering (the “Initial Public Offering” as further defined below) and subsequent to the Initial Public Offering, identifying a target company for a Business Combination. The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of its initial Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company will generate non-operating income on cash and cash equivalents in the form of interest income from the proceeds derived from the Initial Public Offering. The Company has selected September 30 as its fiscal year end. The registration statement for the Company’s Initial Public Offering was declared effective on March 25, 2024. On March 28, 2024, the Company consummated the Initial Public Offering of 11,500,000 units (the “Units”), which includes the full exercise by the underwriters of their over-allotment option in the amount of 1,500,000 Units, at a purchase price of $ 10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $ 115,000,000 , which is discussed in Note 3. Each Unit consists of one share of the Company’s common stock, and one right. Each right entitles the holder thereof to receive one-twentieth (1/20) of one share of common stock upon the consummation of the Business Combination. Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the sale of 610,500 Units (the “Private Placement Units”) at a price of $ 10.00 per Unit in a private placement to the Company’s sponsor, I-B Good Works 4, LLC (the “Sponsor”), which is an affiliate of I-Bankers Securities, Inc. (“I-Bankers”). The Private Placement Units are identical to the units sold in the Initial Public Offering. The Company’s management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and the sale of the Private Placement Units, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be applied generally toward completing a Business Combination. Transaction costs amounted to $ 7,755,845 consisting of the fair value amount of $ 3,867,050 related with the issued representative shares, $ 3,450,000 of cash underwriting discount, and $ 438,795 of other offering costs. The Company must complete its initial Business Combination with one or more target businesses that together have a fair market value equal to at least 80% of the net assets held in the Trust Account (as defined below) (excluding any M&A fees (see note 6) held in the Trust Account and taxes payable on the interest earned on the Trust Account) at the time of the agreement to enter into a Business Combination. The Company will only complete a Business Combination if the post-Business Combination company owns or acquires 50% or more of the issued and outstanding voting securities of the target or otherwise acquires a controlling interest in the target business sufficient for it not to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”). There is no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully effect a Business Combination. Upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering, management has agreed that $ 10.05 per Unit sold in the Initial Public Offering, including proceeds of the sale of the Private Placement Units, will be held in a trust account (“Trust Account”) and invested in U.S. government securities, within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act, with a maturity of 185 days or less, or in any open-ended investment company that holds itself out as a money market fund meeting certain conditions of Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act, as determined by the Company, until the earlier of: (i) the completion of a Business Combination or (ii) the distribution of the funds in the Trust Account to the Company’s stockholders, as described below. F- 7 The Company will provide its 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. The stockholders will be entitled to redeem their shares for a pro rata portion of the amount held in the Trust Account (initially $ 10.05 per share), calculated as of two business days prior to the completion of a Business Combination, including any pro rata interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay its tax obligations. The shares of common stock were recorded at redemption value and classified as temporary equity upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering, in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” The Company will proceed with a Business Combination only if the Company has net tangible assets of at least $ 5,000,001 upon such completion of a Business Combination and, if the Company seeks stockholder approval, a majority of the outstanding shares voted are voted in favor of the Business Combination. If the Company seeks stockholder approval in connection with a Business Combination, the initial stockholders, which are holders of the Founder Shares, have agreed to (i) waive their redemption rights with respect to their Private Placement Shares (as defined below) in connection with the completion of the Business Combination, (ii) waive their redemption rights with respect to their Founder Shares (defined below), Private Placement Shares (defined below) and any Public Shares they hold in connection with a stockholder vote to approve an amendment to the Company’s amended and restated articles of incorporation (a) to modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to redeem 100 % of the Public Shares if the Company does not complete the Business Combination within the combination period or (b) with respect to any other provision relating to stockholders’ rights or pre-initial Business Combination activity and (iii) waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to their Founder Shares and Private Placement Shares if the Company fails to complete the Business Combination within the combination period. In addition, the Sponsor has agreed to vote any Private Placement Shares held by it in favor of the Business Combination. Additionally, each public stockholder may elect to redeem its Public Shares, irrespective of whether they vote for or against a proposed Business Combination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company seeks stockholder approval of a Business Combination and it does not conduct redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules, the Company’s amended and restated articles of incorporation provides that a public stockholder, together with any affiliate of such stockholder or any other person with whom such stockholder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined under Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), will be restricted from redeeming its shares with respect to more than an aggregate of 15% of the Public Shares. The Company initially had until 18 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering to complete a Business Combination, and further extended, as described below, to 24 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering to complete a Business Combination (the “Combination Period”). If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the Company will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but no more than 10 business days thereafter, redeem 100% of the outstanding Public Shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses, which shall be net of taxes payable), divided by the number of then outstanding Public Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public stockholders’ rights as stockholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any), and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the remaining stockholders and the Company’s board of directors, dissolve and liquidate, subject in each case to its obligations under Nevada law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. The initial stockholders have agreed to waive their liquidation rights with respect to the Founder Shares and Private Placement Shares if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period. However, if the initial stockholders acquire Public Shares in or after the Initial Public Offering, such Public Shares will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period. The Underwriters will not receive their M&A fee (see Note 6) held in the Trust Account in the event the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period and, in such event, such amounts will be included with the funds held in the Trust Account that will be available to fund the redemption of the Public Shares. In the event of such distribution, it is possible that the per share value of the assets remaining available for distribution will be less than the Initial Public Offering price per Unit ($ 10.05 ). F- 8 The Sponsor has agreed that it will be liable to the Company, if and to the extent any claims by a third party for services rendered or products sold to the Company, or by a prospective target business with which the Company has discussed entering into a transaction agreement, reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account to below (1) $ 10.05 per Public Share or (2) such lesser amount per Public Share held in the Trust Account as of the date of the liquidation of the Trust Account due to reductions in the value of trust assets, in each case net of the amount of interest which may be withdrawn to pay taxes. This liability will not apply with respect to any claims by a third party who executed a waiver of any and all rights to seek access to the Trust Account nor will it apply to any claims under the Company’s indemnity of the Underwriters of the Initial Public Offering against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), in connection with both our initial public offering and the business combination. Moreover, in the event that an executed waiver is deemed to be unenforceable against a third party, the Sponsor will not be responsible to the extent of any liability for such third-party claims. The Company will seek to reduce the possibility that the Sponsor will have to indemnify the Trust Account due to claims of creditors by endeavoring to have all vendors, service providers (other than the Company’s independent auditors), prospective target businesses or other entities with which the Company does business, execute agreements with the Company waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to monies held in the Trust Account. On September 22, 2025, the Company held the Special Meeting and the stockholders approved the Company’s First Amendment to its Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation (the “Extension Amendment”). The Extension Amendment, among other things, (i) extends the date by which the Company must consummate its initial business combination to March 28, 2026 or such later date as may be approved by the Company’s stockholders in accordance with its amended and restated articles of incorporation; (ii) provides that, prior to the earliest of the completion of a business combination, the redemption of 100% of the Offering Shares if the Company is unable to complete its initial Business Combination by March 28, 2026, and the redemption of shares in connection with a vote seeking to amend any provisions of the Company’s Amended and Restated Articles relating to stockholders’ rights or any pre-initial Business Combination activity, funds in the Company’s trust account will not be released, other than interest to pay franchise and income taxes; (iii) sets forth the redemption and liquidation procedures if the Company does not consummate a business combination by the March 28, 2026; and (iv) provides public stockholders with the right to redeem their shares in connection with any amendment that modifies the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to redeem 100% of the public shares if it has not consummated a business combination by March 28, 2026, or with respect to other material pre-business combination provisions, subject to the applicable redemption limitation. In connection with the Special Meeting, stockholders holding 10,009,120 shares of the Company’s shares of common stock exercised their right to redeem their shares for cash at an approximate price of $ 10.60 per share of the funds in the Trust Account. As a result, approximately $ 106.1 million was removed from the Trust Account to pay such holders, leaving approximately $ 15.8 million remaining in the Trust Account. This amount is subject to change to account for the payment of tax withdrawals. Risks and Uncertainties The United States and global markets are experiencing volatility and disruption following the geopolitical instability resulting from the ongoing Russia-Ukraine conflict and the recent escalation of the Israel-Hamas conflict. In response to the ongoing Russia-Ukraine conflict, the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (“NATO”) deployed additional military forces to eastern Europe, and the United States, the United Kingdom, the European Union and other countries have announced various sanctions and restrictive actions against Russia, Belarus and related individuals and entities, including the removal of certain financial institutions from the Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication payment system. Certain countries, including the United States, have also provided and may continue to provide military aid or other assistance to Ukraine and to Israel, increasing geopolitical tensions among a number of nations. The invasion of Ukraine by Russia and the escalation of the Israel-Hamas conflict and the resulting measures that have been taken, and could be taken in the future, by NATO, the United States, the United Kingdom, the European Union, Israel and its neighboring states and other countries have created global security concerns that could have a lasting impact on regional and global economies. Although the length and impact of the ongoing conflicts are highly unpredictable, they could lead to market disruptions, including significant volatility in commodity prices, credit and capital markets, as well as supply chain interruptions and increased cyber-attacks against U.S. companies. Additionally, any resulting sanctions could adversely affect the global economy and financial markets and lead to instability and lack of liquidity in capital markets. The financial statement does not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (the “OBBBA”) was enacted into law in the United States. The significant provisions of OBBBA include the permanent extension and modification of certain provisions of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, including international tax provisions. The legislation has multiple effective dates, with certain provisions effective in 2025 and others implemented in later years. The Company is evaluating the provisions of OBBBA but it is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements. F- 9 Excise Tax 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. 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 holder, 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. During the second quarter of 2024, the Internal Revenue Service issued final regulations with respect to the timing and payment of the excise tax. These regulations provided that the filing and payment deadline for any liability incurred during the period from January 1, 2023 to December 31, 2023 would be October 31, 2024. The Company is currently evaluating its options with respect to this obligation. Any amount of such excise tax not paid in full, will be subject to additional interest and penalties which are currently estimated at 10 % interest per annum and a 5 % underpayment penalty per month or portion of a month up to 25 % of the total liability for any amount that is unpaid from November 1, 2024 until paid in full. In connection with the Special Meeting held on September 22, 2025, stockholders holding 10,009,120 shares of the Company’s shares of common stock exercised their right to redeem their shares for cash at an approximate price of $ 10.60 per share of the funds in the Trust Account. As a result, approximately $ 106.1 million was removed from the Trust Account to pay such holders, leaving approximately $ 15.8 million remaining in the Trust Account. This amount is subject to change to account for the payment of tax withdrawals. The Company has recorded 1% excise tax based on the amount redeemed or an aggregate amount of $ 1,061,310 excise tax payable. As of September 30, 2025 and September 30, 2024, the Company’s aggregate excise tax payable amounted to $ 1,061,310 and $ 0 , respectively. Going Concern Consideration As of September 30, 2025, the Company had $ 428,700 in cash, $ 787,365 in restricted cash and a working capital deficit of $ 588,202 . In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with the authoritative guidance in Financial Accounting Standard Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-15, “Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern,” management has determined that the Company currently lacks the liquidity it needs to sustain operations for a reasonable period of time, which is considered to be at least one year from the date that the financial statements are issued as it expects to continue to incur significant costs in pursuit of its acquisition plans. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management plans to address this uncertainty through a Business Combination. There is no assurance that the Company’s plans to raise capital or to consummate a Business Combination will be successful within the Combination Period. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. F- 10 NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of Presentation The accompanying financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and pursuant to the accounting and disclosure rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). 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 independent registered public accounting firm 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 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. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the Company’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. F- 11 Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company had $ 428,700 and $ 822,799 in cash as of September 30, 2025, and September 30, 2024, respectively, and no cash equivalents. Cash – Restricted Cash that is encumbered or otherwise restricted as to its use is included in cash – restricted. As of September 30, 2025 and 2024, the balance was $ 787,365 and $ 0 , respectively. Cash – restricted at September 30, 2025 represents cash that was withdrawn from the Trust Account to pay income taxes but is yet to be utilized at the end of the period. Cash and investments held in Trust account As of September 30, 2025 and 2024, all of the assets held in the Trust Account were held in money market funds which are invested only in U.S. government securities. Investments in money market funds are presented on the balance sheet at fair value at the end of each reporting period. Interest and dividends earned from investments in these securities are included in the statements of operations. Offering Costs The Company complies with the requirements of the ASC 340-10-S99-1 and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) Topic 5A — “Expenses of Offering”. Offering costs consist principally of professional and registration fees, cash underwriting discount, and deferred underwriting fees incurred through the balance sheet date that are related to the Initial Public Offering. Offering costs were allocated to the separable financial instruments issued in the Initial Public Offering based on relative fair value basis, compared to total proceeds received. Offering costs allocated to the Public Shares were charged against the carrying value of ordinary shares subject to possible redemption upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering and offering costs allocated to Public Rights (as defined in Note 3) were charged to additional paid in capital at the completion of the Initial Public Offering. Common Stock Subject to Possible Redemption The Public Shares contain a redemption feature which allows for the redemption of such Public Shares in connection with the Company’s liquidation, or if there is a shareholder vote or tender offer in connection with the Company’s initial business combination. In accordance with ASC 480-10-S99, the Company classifies Public Shares subject to redemption outside of permanent equity as the redemption provisions are not solely within the control of the Company. The Public Shares sold as part of the Units in the Initial Public Offering were issued with other freestanding instruments (i.e., Public Rights) and as such, the initial carrying value of Public Shares classified as temporary equity are the allocated proceeds determined in accordance with ASC 470-20. The Company recognizes changes in redemption value immediately as it occurs and will adjust the carrying value of redeemable shares to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Immediately upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company recognized the accretion from initial book value to redemption amount value. The change in the carrying value of redeemable shares will result in charges against retained earnings or additional paid-in capital in the absence of retained earnings. Accordingly, as of September 30, 2025 and 2024, common stock subject to possible redemption is presented at redemption value as temporary equity, outside of the stockholders’ equity section of the Company’s balance sheet. The Company recognizes changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and adjusts the carrying value of redeemable shares to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Increases or decreases in the carrying amount of redeemable shares are affected by charges against retained earnings or additional paid-in capital in the absence of retained earnings. In connection with the Special Meeting held on September 22, 2025, stockholders holding 10,009,120 shares of the Company’s shares of common stock exercised their right to redeem their shares for cash at an approximate price of $ 10.60 per share of the funds in the Trust Account. As a result, approximately $ 106.1 million was removed from the Trust Account to pay such holders, leaving approximately $ 15.8 million remaining in the Trust Account. This amount is subject to change to account for the payment of tax withdrawals. F- 12 As of September 30, 2025 and 2024, the common stock subject to redemption reflected in the balance sheet are reconciled in the following table: SCHEDULE OF COMMON STOCK SUBJECT TO REDEMPTION Gross proceeds $ 115,000,000 Less: Proceeds allocated to Public Rights ( 2,415,000 ) Common stock issuance costs ( 7,571,317 ) Plus: Remeasurement of carrying value to redemption value 12,952,678 Common stock subject to possible redemption, September 30, 2024 117,966,361 Less: Redemptions of common stock ( 106,131,025 ) Plus: Remeasurement of carrying value to redemption value 4,147,979 Common stock subject to possible redemption, September 30, 2025 $ 15,983,315 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 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. As of September 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company’s deferred tax asset had a full valuation allowance recorded against it. Our effective tax rate was 22.04 % and 25.39 % for the year ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The effective tax rate differs from the statutory tax rate of 21 % for the period ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, due to the valuation allowance on the deferred tax assets, interest and penalties and true up of startup costs per 2024 filed return. 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. 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, 2025 and 2024. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviation from its position. The Company has identified the United States 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 Income Per Common Stock The Company complies with the accounting and disclosure requirements of FASB ASC Topic 260, “Earnings Per Share”. Net income per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. Remeasurement associated with the redeemable shares of common stock is excluded from earnings per share as the redemption value approximates fair value. The calculation of diluted net income per share does not consider the effect of the rights issued in connection with the (i) Initial Public Offering, and (ii) the private placement since the exercise of the rights are contingent upon the occurrence of future events. As of September 30, 2025 and 2024, the rights are exercisable to purchase 605,525 shares of common stock in the aggregate. The weighted average of these shares was excluded from the calculation of diluted net income common stock since the inclusion of such rights would be anti-dilutive. The rights cannot be converted to shares of common stock prior to an initial Business Combination; therefore, they have been classified as anti-dilutive. F- 13 The following table reflects the calculation of basic and diluted net income per common stock (in dollars, except per share amounts): SCHEDULE OF BASIC AND DILUTED NET LOSS PER COMMON STOCK Redeemable Non-redeemable Redeemable Non-redeemable For the Year Ended September 30, 2025 2024 Redeemable Non-redeemable Redeemable Non-redeemable Basic net income per common share Numerator: Allocation of net income $ 2,479,816 $ 936,353 $ 1,163,106 $ 704,281 Denominator: Basic weighted-average shares outstanding 11,253,200 4,249,090 5,860,274 3,548,500 Basic net income per common share $ 0.22 $ 0.22 $ 0.20 $ 0.20 For the Year Ended September 30, 2025 2024 Redeemable Non-redeemable Redeemable Non-redeemable Diluted net income per common share Numerator: Allocation of net income $ 2,479,816 $ 936,353 $ 1,138,010 $ 729,377 Denominator: Diluted weighted average shares outstanding 11,253,200 4,249,090 5,860,274 3,755,982 Diluted net income per common share $ 0.22 $ 0.22 $ 0.19 $ 0.19 Concentration of Credit Risk Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash accounts in a financial institution, which at times may exceed the Federal Depository Insurance Coverage of $ 250,000 . The Company has not experienced losses on the cash account and management believes that the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such account. Uninsured cash amount as of September 30, 2025 and 2024, are $ 966,065 and $ 572,799 , respectively. Fair value of Financial Instruments The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the accompanying balance sheet, primarily due to their short-term nature. Recent Accounting Standards In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. The amendments in this ASU require disclosures, on an annual and interim basis, of significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating officer decision maker (“CODM”), as well as the aggregate amount of other segment items included in the reported measure of segment profit or loss. The ASU requires that a public entity disclose the title and position of the CODM and an explanation of how the CODM uses the reported measure(s) of segment profit or loss in assessing segment performance and deciding how to allocate resources. Public entities will be required to provide all annual disclosures currently required by Topic 280 in interim periods, and entities with a single reportable segment are required to provide all the disclosures required by the amendments in this ASU and existing segment disclosures in Topic 280. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. ASU 2023-07 became effective as of December 31, 2024 and the Company’s management adopted ASU 2023-07 in its financial statements and related disclosures (see Note 10). F- 14 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 financial statements. NOTE 3. INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERINGs Pursuant to the Initial Public Offering, the Company sold 11,500,000 Units, which includes a full exercise by the underwriter of their over-allotment option in the amount of 1,500,000 Units, at a purchase price of $ 10.00 per Unit. Each Unit consists of one share of the Company’s common stock, and one right. Each right entitles the holder thereof to receive one-twentieth (1/20) of one share of common stock upon the consummation of the Business Combination. NOTE 4. PRIVATE PLACEMENT Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Sponsor has purchased an aggregate of 610,500 Private Placement Units at a price of $ 10.00 per Private Placement Unit from the Company in a private placement. Each Private Unit will consist of one share of common stock (“Private Placement Share”) and one right (“Private Placement Right”). Each Private Placement Right will entitle the holder to receive one-twentieth of one share of common stock at the closing of a Business Combination. Certain proceeds from the sale of the Private Placement Units were added to the net proceeds from the Initial Public Offering 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 Placements Units and all underlying securities will expire worthless. NOTE 5. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS Founder Shares On September 2, 2020, the Sponsor subscribed to purchase an aggregate of 4,312,500 shares (the “Founder Shares”) for a subscription price of $ 3,000 . On October 26, 2023, the Sponsor agreed to surrender an aggregate of 1,068,910 shares of the Company’s common stock for no consideration, which were cancelled, resulting in the Sponsor holding an aggregate of 3,243,590 Founder Shares. The subsequent cancellation is retrospectively reflected in the financial statements from day one. The Company maintains the ownership of Founder Shares by the initial stockholders at 22.0 % of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of common stock upon the consummation of the Initial Public Offering, not including the Private Placement Shares or the Representative Shares. Up to 423,077 Founder Shares held by the initial stockholders are no longer subject to forfeiture due to the underwriters’ over-allotment option exercised in full at the Initial Public Offering. The initial stockholders and the officers and directors have agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of the Founder Shares until the earlier of (i) six months after the date of the consummation of the Business Combination or (ii) the date on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, stock exchange or other similar transaction after its initial business combination that results in all of its public stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of common stock for cash, securities or other property. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the last sale price of the Company’s common stock equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after its initial business combination, the Founder Shares will be released from the lock-up. Due to Sponsor During the year ended September 30, 2025, the Sponsor incurred travel expenses amounting to $ 2,788 which are reimbursable by Su De Tang Global Corporation, the reimbursement was paid to the Company through the proceeds of the working capital loans. As of September 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company had due to Sponsor, non-interest bearing and due on demand in the amount of $ 2,788 and $ 0 , respectively. F- 15 Subscription Agreements From October 2023 through January 2024, the Company’s Sponsor entered into six subscription agreements to sell membership interests in the Sponsor to members of management, directors and director nominees. The membership interests represent the indirect equivalent of 525,000 Founders Shares which equates to 16.19 % of the 3,243,590 Founders Shares issued and outstanding. The total purchase price paid for the membership interests was $ 2,500 . The Company modified the agreements in February 2024, with the intent to clarify that the Founder Shares are “earned upon the completion of a successful Business Combination” and the modified agreement is to be effective contemporaneously with the date and time of the initial subscription agreements. The sale of the membership interests to the Company’s management, directors and director’s nominees is in the scope of FASB ASC Topic 718, “Compensation-Stock Compensation” (“ASC 718”). Under ASC 718, stock-based compensation associated with equity-classified awards is measured at fair value upon the grant date. On January 22, 2024, one of the subscription agreements representing an indirect equivalent of 100,000 Founders Shares or 3.08 % of the 3,243,590 Founders Shares (with over-allotment) issued and outstanding was terminated and $ 500 was paid to the subscriber as a result of the termination of the agreement. On September 11, 2024, one of the subscription agreements representing an indirect equivalent of 100,000 Founders Shares or 3.08 % of the 3,243,590 Founders Shares (with over-allotment) issued and outstanding was amended in which the Sponsor granted an additional 50,000 Founder Shares bringing the total to 150,000 Founder Shares or 4.06 % of the 3,243,590 Founders Shares (with over-allotment) issued and outstanding. The total purchase price paid for the membership interest was $ 750 . The fair value of the 425,000 shares granted through March 28, 2024, to the Company’s directors and director nominees was approximately $ 1,734,000 or approximately $ 4.08 per share. The fair value of the additional 50,000 shares granted on September 11, 2024, to the Company’s directors and director nominees was approximately $ 499,000 or approximately $ 9.98 per share. The Founders Shares were granted subject to a performance condition (i.e., the occurrence of a Business Combination). Compensation expense related to the Founders Shares is recognized only when the performance condition is probable of occurrence under the applicable accounting literature in this circumstance. As of September 30, 2025, the Company determined that a Business Combination is not considered probable, and, therefore, no stock-based compensation expense has been recognized. Stock-based compensation would be recognized at the date a Business Combination is considered probable (i.e., upon consummation of a Business Combination) in an amount equal to the number of Founders Shares times the grant date fair value per share (unless subsequently modified) less the amount initially received for the purchase of the Founders Shares. The Founder Shares issued to the directors and director nominees were valued using a Black-Scholes model. The following criteria presents the quantitative information regarding market assumptions used in the Founder Share valuations: SCHEDULE OF FAIR VALUE OF MARKET ASSUMPTIONS USED IN THE FOUNDER SHARE VALUATIONS November 15, 2023 January 15, 2024 Volatility 5.0 % 5.0 % Risk-free rate 4.8 % 4.1 % Spot price $ 8.95 $ 9.32 Discount of lack of marketability (DLOM) 0.2 % 0.4 % Equity measurement input 0.2 % 0.4 % Administrative Support Agreement The Company entered into an Administrative Services Agreement pursuant to which the Company agreed to pay the Chief Financial Officer a sum of $ 5,000 per month commencing on October 1, 2023. Upon completion of the initial business combination or the liquidation, the Company will cease paying these monthly fees. On January 22, 2024, the Company’s Chief Financial Officer resigned, and the Administrative Services Agreement was terminated. F- 16 On January 22, 2024, the Company appointed a new Chief Financial Officer and entered into an Administrative Services Agreement dated January 24, 2024, pursuant to which the Company agreed to pay the Chief Financial Officer a sum of $ 5,000 per month commencing at the time of the Initial Public Offering closing. The agreement further specified that upon completion of the initial business combination or the liquidation, the Company will cease paying these monthly fees. For the year ended September 30, 2025, the Company incurred $ 60,000 in fees for these services, of which $ 15,000 is recorded as accrued expenses in the balance sheet as of September 30, 2025. For the year ended September 30, 2024, the Company incurred $ 45,000 in fees for these services, of which $ 15,000 is included in accrued expenses in the accompanying balance sheet as of September 30, 2024 NOTE 6. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCY Registration Rights The holders of the Founder Shares, Private Placement Units (and their underlying securities) any Units that may be issued upon conversion of the Working Capital Loans (and underlying securities), and Representative Shares are entitled to registration rights pursuant to a registration rights agreement signed on the effective date of the Initial Public Offering requiring the Company to register such securities for resale. The holders of these securities are entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short form demands, that the Company register such securities. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to the completion of a Business Combination and rights to require the Company to register for resale such securities pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act. The registration rights agreement does not contain liquidated damages or other cash settlement provisions resulting from delays in registering the Company’s securities. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements. Underwriting Agreement and Business Combination Marketing Agreement The Company engaged I-Bankers to act as Underwriters on the Initial Public Offering of the Company’s Units, for $ 115,000,000 and the simultaneous listing on the Nasdaq Global Market. The Underwriters had a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional 1,500,000 Units to cover over-allotments at the Initial Public Offering price, less the underwriting discounts and commissions. On March 28, 2024, simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Underwriters elected to fully exercise the over-allotment option to purchase an additional 1,500,000 Units at a price of $ 10.00 per Unit. The Underwriters were entitled to a cash underwriting discount of $ 0.30 per Unit, or $ 3,450,000 in the aggregate, paid upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering. In addition, under a business combination marketing agreement, the Company engaged I-Bankers to provide marketing services in connection with the Business Combination and will pay I-Bankers a cash fee for such marketing services upon the consummation of the Business Combination in an amount equal to, in the aggregate, 3.5 % of the gross proceeds of the Initial Public Offering (the “M&A fee”) or $ 4,025,000 in the aggregate. If the Company doesn’t complete a business combination, no fee will be due. In addition, the Company will pay the I-Bankers a finder fee equal to 1.0 % of the consideration issued to a target if the business combination is consummated with a target introduced by the I-Bankers. On the closing of the Initial Public Offering, pursuant to the underwriting agreement, the Company issued as compensation 395,000 shares of common stock for no cash consideration (the “Representative Shares”). Working Capital Loan On September 16, 2024, the Company issued an unsecured promissory note in the principal amount of $ 150,000 to Su De Tang Global Corporation (the “Working Capital Loan”). The principal balance of this Promissory Note represents the first of potentially three instalments of the Working Capital Loan. The Working Capital Loan bears no interest and will be extinguished without any payment required at the consummation of a Business Combination with Su De Tang Global Corporation. The Company has borrowed a total of $ 147,629 under the Working Capital. As of September 30, 2025, the Company repaid an amount of $ 147,629 . Borrowings under the note are no longer available. F- 17 NOTE 7. STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY Preferred Stock — The Company is authorized to issue 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock with a par value of $ 0.0001 per share with such designation, rights and preferences as may be determined from time to time by the Company’s board of directors. As of September 30, 2025 and 2024, there were no shares of preferred stock issued or outstanding. Common Stock — The Company is authorized to issue 100,000,000 shares of common stock with a par value of $ 0.0001 per share. Holders of common stock are entitled to one vote for each share . As of September 30, 2025 and 2024, there were 4,249,090 shares of common stock issued and outstanding, excluding 1,490,880 and 11,500,000 shares of common stock subject to possible redemption. NOTE 8. INCOME TAX The Company did not have any significant deferred tax assets or liabilities at September 30, 2025 and 2024. The Company’s net deferred tax asset (liabilities) are as follows: SCHEDULE OF DEFERRED TAX ASSETS AND LIABILITIES 2025 2024 September 30 2025 2024 Deferred tax assets Net operating loss carryforward $ — $ — Startup Costs 153,540 111,674 Total deferred tax assets 153,540 111,674 Valuation allowance ( 153,540 ) ( 111,674 ) Deferred tax assets, net of allowance $ — $ — The income tax provision for the year ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 consists of the following: SCHEDULE OF INCOME TAX PROVISION 2025 2024 September 30, 2025 2024 Federal Current $ 965,635 $ 635,512 Deferred ( 41,866 ) ( 109,903 ) State Current $ — $ — Deferred — — Change in valuation allowance 41,866 109,903 Income tax provision $ 965,635 $ 635,512 As of September 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company had a total of $ 0 and $ 0 , respectively, of U.S. federal net operating loss carryovers available to offset future taxable income. The federal net operating loss can be carried forward indefinitely. As of September 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company did not have any state net operating loss carryovers available to offset future taxable income. In assessing the realization of the deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion of all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which temporary differences representing net future deductible amounts become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. After consideration of all of the information available, management believes that significant uncertainty exists with respect to future realization of the deferred tax assets and has therefore established a full valuation allowance. For the year ended September 30, 2024, the change in the valuation allowance was $ 109,903 . For the year ended September 30, 2025, the change in the valuation allowance was $ 41,866 . F- 18 A reconciliation of the federal income tax rate to the Company’s effective tax rate is as follows: SCHEDULE OF RECONCILIATION OF FEDERAL INCOME TAX RATE 2025 2024 September 30, 2025 2024 Statutory federal income tax rate 21.00 % 21.00 % Interest and penalties 0.08 % 0.00 % True up - Startup Costs and Net Operating Loss per 2024 filed tax return ( 2.55 )% 0.00 % Change in valuation allowance 3.51 % 4.39 % Income tax provision 22.04 % 25.39 % The Company’s effective tax rates for the periods presented differ from the expected (statutory) rates due to changes in fair value in warrants, transaction costs associated with warrants and the recording of full valuation allowances on deferred tax assets. The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction in various state and local jurisdictions and is subject to examination by the various taxing authorities. NOTE 9. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS The Company follows the guidance in ASC 820 for its financial assets and liabilities that are re-measured and reported at fair value at each reporting period, and non-financial assets and liabilities that are-measured and reported at fair value at least annually. The fair value of the Company’s 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 our assessment of the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. As of September 30, 2025, assets held in the Trust Account were comprised of $ 15,890,194 in a money market fund that is invested primarily in U.S. Treasury Securities. For the period ended September 30, 2025, the Company had withdrawn $ 1,711,366 of interest earned on the Trust Account to pay for income taxes and $ 106,131,025 from Trust Account in connection with redemptions. As of September 30, 2024, assets held in the Trust Account were comprised of $ 118,601,873 in a money market fund that is invested primarily in U.S. Treasury Securities. Through September 30, 2024, the Company has not withdrawn any of the interest earned on the Trust Account. The following table presents information about the Company’s assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2025, and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation inputs the Company utilized to determine such fair value.: SCHEDULE OF MEASURED FAIR VALUE ON RECURRING BASIS Description Level September 30, 2025 September 30, 2024 Assets: Cash and investments held in Trust Account 1 $ 15,890,194 $ 118,601,873 F- 19 NOTE 10. SEGMENT INFORMATION ASC Topic 280, “Segment Reporting,” establishes standards for companies to report in their financial statement information about operating segments, products, services, geographic areas, and major customers. Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise for which separate financial information is available that is regularly evaluated by the Company’s chief operating decision maker, or group, in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance. The Company’s chief operating decision maker has been identified as the Chief Financial Officer (“CODM”), who reviews the operating results for the Company as a whole to make decisions about allocating resources and assessing financial performance. Accordingly, management has determined that the Company only has one operating segment. When evaluating the Company’s performance and making key decisions regarding resource allocation, the CODM reviews key metrics, which includes general and administrative expenses and interest and dividends earned on cash and investments held in Trust Account which are included in the statements of operations. The key measures of segment profit or loss reviewed by our CODM are interest and dividends earned on cash and investments held in Trust Account and general and administrative expenses. The CODM reviews interest and dividends earned on cash and investments held in Trust Account to measure and monitor stockholder value and determine the most effective strategy of investment with the Trust Account funds while maintaining compliance with the trust agreement. General and administrative expenses are reviewed and monitored by the CODM to manage and forecast cash to ensure enough capital is available to complete a business combination within the business combination period. The CODM also reviews general and administrative costs to manage, maintain and enforce all contractual agreements to ensure costs are aligned with all agreements and budget. NOTE 11.  SUBSEQUENT EVENTS The Company evaluated subsequent events and transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date up to the date that the financial statements were issued. Based upon this review, the Company did not identify any subsequent events that would have required adjustment or disclosure in the financial statements.
