−Removed: Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).
−Removed: The registration statement for the Company’s
−Removed: initial public offering (the “Public Offering” as described in Note 4, “IPO”) was declared effective by the United
−Removed: States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on May 13, 2019.
−Removed: The Company consummated the Public Offering on May 16,
−Removed: 2019 of 4,600,000 units at $ 10.00 per unit (the “Public Units”) and sold to the sponsor to purchase 225,000 units at $ 10 per

−Removed: The Company received net proceeds of $ 46,716,219 .
−Removed: The Company incurred $ 2,559,729 in initial public
−Removed: offering related costs, including $ 2,175,948 of underwriting fees and $ 383,781 of initial public offering costs.
−Removed: Trust Account
−Removed: Upon the closing of the Public Offering and the
−Removed: private placement, $ 46,000,000 was placed in a trust account (the “Trust Account”) with Continental Stock Transfer & Trust
−Removed: Company acting as trustee.
−Removed: The funds held in the Trust Account can be invested in United States government treasury bills, bonds or notes,
−Removed: having a maturity of 185 days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 promulgated under the Investment
−Removed: Company Act until the earlier of (i) the consummation of the Company’s initial business combination and (ii) the Company’s
−Removed: failure to consummate a business combination within 36 months (unless extended) from the closing of the Public Offering.
−Removed: Placing funds
−Removed: in the Trust Account may not protect those funds from third party claims against the Company.
−Removed: Although the Company will seek to have all
−Removed: vendors, service providers, prospective target businesses or other entities it engages, execute agreements with the Company waiving any
−Removed: claim of any kind in or to any monies held in the Trust Account, there is no guarantee that such persons will execute such agreements.
−Removed: The remaining net proceeds (not held in the Trust Account) may be used to pay for business, legal and accounting due diligence on prospective
−Removed: acquisitions and continuing general and administrative expenses.
−Removed: Additionally, the interest earned on the Trust Account balance may be
−Removed: released to the Company to pay the Company’s tax obligations.
−Removed: Business Combination
−Removed: Pursuant to Nasdaq listing rules, the Company’s
−Removed: initial business combination must occur with one or more target businesses having an aggregate fair market value equal to at least 80%
−Removed: of the value of the funds in the Trust Account (excluding any deferred underwriter’s fees and taxes payable on the income earned
−Removed: on the Trust Account), which the Company refers to as the 80% test, at the time of the execution of a definitive agreement for its initial
−Removed: business combination, although the Company may structure a business combination with one or more target businesses whose fair market value
−Removed: significantly exceeds 80% of the Trust Account balance.
−Removed: If the Company is no longer listed on Nasdaq, it will not be required to satisfy
−Removed: the 80% test.
−Removed: The Company currently anticipates structuring a business combination to acquire 100% of the equity interests or assets of
−Removed: the target business or businesses.
−Removed: The Company may, however, structure a business
−Removed: combination where the Company merges directly with the target business or where the Company acquires less than 100% of such interests
−Removed: or assets of the target business in order to meet certain objectives of the target management team or shareholders or for other reasons,
−Removed: but the Company will only complete such business combination if the post-transaction company owns 50% or more of the outstanding voting
−Removed: securities of the target or otherwise owns a controlling interest in the target sufficient for it not to be required to register as an
−Removed: investment company under the Investment Company Act.
−Removed: If less than 100% of the equity interests or assets of a target business or businesses
−Removed: are owned or acquired by the post-transaction company, the portion of such business or businesses that is owned or acquired is what will
−Removed: be valued for purposes of the 80% test.
−Removed: As set forth in the memorandum of association,
−Removed: the objects for which are established are unrestricted and the Company shall have full power and authority to carry out any object not
−Removed: prohibited by the Companies Law or as the same may be revised from time to time, or any other law of the British Virgin Islands.
−Removed: The Company’s amended and restated memorandum
−Removed: and articles of association contains provisions designed to provide certain rights and protections to its ordinary shareholders prior
−Removed: to the consummation of the initial business combination.
−Removed: These provisions cannot be amended without the approval of 65% (or 50% if approved
−Removed: in connection with the initial business combination) of the Company’s outstanding ordinary shares attending and voting on such amendment.
−Removed: Since inception, the Company has sought to amend provisions of the amended and restated memorandum and articles of association relating
−Removed: to shareholders’ rights three times (at the February 5, 2021, November 2, 2021 and May 3, 2022 shareholders’ meeting).
−Removed: time, the Company provided dissenting public shareholders with the opportunity to redeem their public shares in connection with any such
−Removed: vote on any proposed amendments to the amended and restated memorandum and articles of association.
−Removed: The Company will either seek shareholder approval
−Removed: of any business combination at a meeting called for such purpose at which shareholders may seek to convert their shares into their pro
−Removed: rata share of the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, less any taxes then due but not yet paid, or provide shareholders
−Removed: with the opportunity to sell their shares to the Company by means of a tender offer for an amount equal to their pro rata share of the
−Removed: aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, less any taxes then due but not yet paid.
−Removed: These shares have been recorded at redemption
−Removed: value and are classified as temporary equity, in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting
−Removed: Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” The Company will proceed with
−Removed: a business combination only if it will have net tangible assets of at least $ 5,000,001 upon consummation of the business combination and,
−Removed: solely if shareholder approval is sought, a majority of the outstanding ordinary shares of the Company voted are voted in favor of the
−Removed: business combination.
−Removed: In connection with any shareholder vote required
−Removed: to approve any business combination, the initial shareholder s have agreed (i) to vote any of their respective shares, including the ordinary
−Removed: shares sold to the initial shareholders in connection with the organization of the Company (the “Initial Shares”), ordinary
−Removed: shares included in the Private Units sold in the private placement, and any ordinary shares which were initially issued in connection
−Removed: with the Public Offering, whether acquired in or after the effective date of the Public Offering, in favor of the initial business combination
−Removed: and (ii) not to convert such respective shares into a pro rata portion of the Trust Account or seek to sell their shares in connection
−Removed: with any tender offer the Company engages in.
−Removed: On November 3, 2021, the Company entered into
−Removed: the business combination agreement, which provides for a business combination between AGBA and TAG and certain of TAG’s wholly owned
−Removed: subsidiaries – OnePlatform Holdings Limited (“OPH”), TAG Asia Capital Holdings Limited (“Fintech”), TAG
−Removed: International Limited (“B2B”), TAH Asset Partners Limited (“B2BSub”), and OnePlatform International Limited (“HKSub”).
−Removed: OPH through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, is engaged in business-to-business (or B2B) services, while Fintech through its wholly-owned
−Removed: subsidiaries, is engaged in the financial technology or fintech business.
−Removed: B2BSub is a wholly-owned subsidiary of B2B, and HKSub is a wholly
−Removed: owned subsidiary of B2BSub.
−Removed: In the business combination agreement, as amended, B2B, B2BSub, HKSub, OPH, Fintech, together with their respective
−Removed: subsidiaries are referred to as the “Group Parties”.
−Removed: Pursuant to the business combination agreement, as amended, OPH will
−Removed: first become a subsidiary of B2B through a merger with HKSub, with OPH as the surviving entity (the “OPH Merger”).
−Removed: Subsequently,
−Removed: (i) AMSI will merge with and into B2B;
−Removed: and AMSII will merge with and into Fintech (together with (i), the “Acquisition Merger”).
−Removed: In consideration of the Acquisition Merger, AGBA will issue 55,500,000 ordinary shares with a deemed price per share US$ 10.00 (“Aggregate
−Removed: Stock Consideration”) to TAG, in its capacity as sole shareholder of B2B and Fintech.
−Removed: At the closing of the Acquisition Merger, AGBA
−Removed: shall issue the full amount of the Aggregate Stock Consideration, less three percent (3%) of the Aggregate Stock Consideration (the “Holdback
−Removed: Shares”), to TAG, in its capacity as sole shareholder of B2B and Fintech, subject to compliance with applicable law.
−Removed: the provisions of the business combination Agreement, AGBA will release the Holdback Shares at the end of six (6) months following the
−Removed: closing of the Acquisition Merger, which may be extended for an additional three-month period (the “Survival Period”), provided
−Removed: that the AGBA will be entitled to retain some or all of the Holdback Shares to satisfy certain indemnification claims during the Survival
−Removed: The business combination agreement, as amended,
−Removed: provides that, among other things, (i) the Outside Closing Date (as defined in the business combination agreement) of the proposed transactions
−Removed: contemplated by the business combination agreement shall be extended to December 31, 2022 from October 31, 2022, and (ii)
−Removed: each party shall use its reasonable best efforts to finalize all Additional Agreements (as defined in the business combination agreement)
−Removed: and other ancillary documents contemplated by the business combination agreement no later than December 31, 2022.
−Removed: Liquidation and going concern
−Removed: The Company initially had 12 months from the consummation
−Removed: of this offering to consummate the initial business combination.
−Removed: If the Company does not complete a business combination within 12 months
−Removed: from the consummation of the Public Offering, the Company will trigger an automatic winding up, dissolution and liquidation pursuant to
−Removed: the terms of the amended and restated memorandum and articles of association.
−Removed: As a result, this has the same effect as if the Company
−Removed: had formally gone through a voluntary liquidation procedure under the Companies Law.
−Removed: Accordingly, no vote would be required from our shareholders
−Removed: to commence such a voluntary winding up, dissolution and liquidation.
−Removed: However, the Company may extend the period of time to consummate
−Removed: a business combination ten times (for a total of up to 42 months from the consummation of the Public Offering to complete a business combination).
−Removed: As of the date of this report, the Company has extended ten times by an additional three months each time (for a total of up to 39 months
−Removed: from the consummation of the Public Offering to complete a business combination), and so it now has until November 16, 2022 to consummate
−Removed: a business combination.
−Removed: Pursuant to the terms of the current amended and restated memorandum and articles of association and the trust
−Removed: agreement between the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC, in order to extend the time available for the Company
−Removed: to consummate our initial business combination, the Company’s insiders or their affiliates or designees, upon five days advance
−Removed: notice prior to the applicable deadline, must deposit into the Trust Account $0.15 per public share, on or prior to the date of the applicable
−Removed: The insider, AGBA Holding Limited, has received non-interest bearing, unsecured promissory notes equal to the amount of any
−Removed: such deposits (i.e., $460,000 for each of the first three extensions since May 2020, $594,467 for each of the next three extensions, $546,991
−Removed: for each of next two extensions, and $504,431 for each of two extensions in May 2022 and August 2022) that will not be repaid in the event
−Removed: that we are unable to close a business combination unless there are funds available outside the Trust Account to do so.
−Removed: Such notes would
−Removed: either be paid upon consummation of the Company’s initial business combination, or, at the lender’s discretion, converted
−Removed: upon consummation of our business combination into additional Private Units at a price of $10.00 per unit.
−Removed: The Company’s shareholders
−Removed: have approved the issuance of the Private Units upon conversion of such notes, to the extent the holder wishes to so convert such notes
−Removed: at the time of the consummation of the Company’s initial business combination.
−Removed: In the event that the Company receives notice from
−Removed: the Company’s insiders five days prior to the applicable deadline of their intent to effect an extension, the Company intends to
−Removed: issue a press release announcing such intention at least three days prior to the applicable deadline.
−Removed: In addition, the Company intends
−Removed: to issue a press release the day after the applicable deadline announcing whether or not the funds had been timely deposited.
−Removed: If the Company
−Removed: is unable to consummate the Company’s initial business combination by November 16, 2022, the Company will, as promptly as possible
−Removed: but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem 100 % of the Company’s outstanding public shares for a pro rata portion of
−Removed: the funds held in the Trust Account, including a pro rata portion of any interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not
−Removed: necessary to pay taxes, and then seek to liquidate and dissolve.
−Removed: However, the Company may not be able to distribute such amounts as a

+Added: ● Commitments and Contingencies
+Added: The Company follows ASC Topic 450-20, Commitments
+Added: to report accounting for contingencies.
+Added: Certain conditions may exist as of the date the financial statements are issued, which may result
+Added: in a loss to the Company but which will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur.
+Added: The Company assesses such
+Added: contingent liabilities, and such assessment inherently involves an exercise of judgment.
+Added: In assessing loss contingencies related to legal
+Added: proceedings that are pending against the Company or un-asserted claims that may result in such proceedings, the Company evaluates the
+Added: perceived merits of any legal proceedings or un-asserted claims as well as the perceived merits of the amount of relief sought or expected
+Added: to be sought therein.
+Added: If the assessment of a contingency indicates that
+Added: it is probable that a material loss has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be estimated, then the estimated liability would
+Added: be accrued in the Company’s financial statements.
+Added: If the assessment indicates that a potentially material loss contingency is not
+Added: probable but is reasonably possible, or is probable but cannot be estimated, then the nature of the contingent liability, and an estimate
+Added: of the range of possible losses, if determinable and material, would be disclosed.
+Added: Loss contingencies considered remote are generally
+Added: not disclosed unless they involve guarantees, in which case the guarantees would be disclosed.
+Added: Management does not believe, based upon
+Added: information available at this time that these matters will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results
+Added: of operations or cash flows.
+Added: However, there is no assurance that such matters will not materially and adversely affect the Company’s
+Added: business, financial position, and results of operations or cash flows.
+Added: ● Fair Value Measurement
+Added: The Company follows the guidance of the ASC Topic
+Added: 820-10, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC Topic 820-10”), with respect to financial assets and liabilities
+Added: that are measured at fair value.
+Added: ASC Topic 820-10 establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used in measuring
+Added: fair value as follows:
+Added: based upon unadjusted quoted prices for identical instruments traded in active markets;
+Added: based upon quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that
+Added: are not active, and model-based valuation techniques (e.g.
+Added: Black-Scholes Option-Pricing model) for which all significant inputs are observable
+Added: in the market or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
+Added: Where applicable,
+Added: these models project future cash flows and discount the future amounts to a present value using market-based observable inputs;
+Added: Inputs are generally
+Added: unobservable and typically reflect management’s estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset
+Added: or liability.
+Added: The fair values are therefore determined using model-based techniques, including option pricing models and discounted cash
+Added: The carrying value of the Company’s financial
+Added: cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, deposit, prepayments and other receivables, amount due to
+Added: shareholder, accounts payable and accrued liabilities and escrow liabilities approximate at their fair values because of the short-term
+Added: nature of these financial instruments.
+Added: Management believes, based on the current market
+Added: prices or interest rates for similar debt instruments, the fair value of loans receivables and notes receivables approximate the carrying
+Added: They are accounted at amortised cost, subject to impairment testing.

−Removed: ordinary shares and the undistributed loss is calculated using the total net loss less any dividends paid.
−Removed: The Company then allocated
−Removed: the undistributed loss ratably based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding between the redeemable and non-redeemable ordinary
−Removed: Any remeasurement of the accretion to redemption value of the ordinary shares subject to possible redemption was considered to
−Removed: be dividends paid to the public stockholders.
−Removed: As of September 30, 2022, the Company has not considered the effect of the warrants sold
−Removed: in the IPO to purchase an aggregate of 2,412,500 shares in the calculation of diluted net loss per share, since the exercise of the warrants
−Removed: is contingent upon the occurrence of future events and the inclusion of such warrants would be anti-dilutive and the Company did not have
−Removed: any other dilutive securities and other contracts that could, potentially, be exercised or converted into ordinary share and then share
−Removed: in the earnings of the Company.
−Removed: As a result, diluted loss per share is the same as basic loss per share for the period presented.

−Removed: Except in cases where the Company is not the surviving
−Removed: company in a business combination, each holder of a right will automatically receive one-tenth (1/10) of an ordinary share upon consummation
−Removed: of the initial business combination.
−Removed: In the event the Company will not be the surviving company upon completion of the initial business
−Removed: combination, each holder of a right will be required to affirmatively convert his, her or its rights in order to receive the one-tenth
−Removed: (1/10) of a share underlying each right upon consummation of the business combination.
−Removed: The Company will not issue fractional shares in
−Removed: connection with an exchange of rights.
−Removed: Fractional shares will either be rounded down to the nearest whole share or otherwise addressed
−Removed: in accordance with the applicable provisions of the British Virgin Islands law.
−Removed: As a result, you must hold rights in multiples of 10 in
−Removed: order to receive shares for all of your rights upon closing of a business combination.
−Removed: If we are unable to complete an initial business
−Removed: combination within the required time period and the Company redeems the public shares for the funds held in the Trust Account, holders
−Removed: of rights will not receive any of such funds for their rights and the rights will expire worthless.
−Removed: Public Warrants
−Removed: Each Public Warrant entitles the holder thereof
−Removed: to purchase one-half (1/2) of one ordinary share at a price of $ 11.50 per full share, subject to adjustment.
−Removed: Pursuant to the warrant agreement,
−Removed: a warrant holder may exercise its warrants only for a whole number of shares.
−Removed: This means that only an even number of warrants may be exercised
−Removed: at any given time by a warrant holder.
−Removed: No Public Warrants will be exercisable for cash
−Removed: unless the Company has an effective and current registration statement covering the ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants
−Removed: and a current prospectus relating to such ordinary shares.
−Removed: It is the Company’s current intention to have an effective and current
−Removed: registration statement covering the ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants and a current prospectus relating to such ordinary
−Removed: shares in effect promptly following consummation of an initial business combination.
−Removed: Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a registration
−Removed: statement covering the ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the Public Warrants is not effective within 90 days following the consummation
−Removed: of our initial business combination, Public Warrant holders may, until such time as there is an effective registration statement and during
−Removed: any period when we shall have failed to maintain an effective registration statement, exercise warrants on a cashless basis pursuant to
−Removed: an available exemption from registration under the Securities Act.
−Removed: In such event, each holder would pay the exercise price by surrendering
−Removed: the warrants for that number of ordinary shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the product of the number of ordinary shares
−Removed: underlying the warrants, multiplied by the difference between the exercise price of the warrants and the “fair market value”
−Removed: (defined below) by (y) the fair market value.
−Removed: The “fair market value” shall mean the average reported last sale price of the
−Removed: ordinary shares for the 10 trading days ending on the day prior to the date of exercise.
−Removed: For example, if a holder held 300 warrants to
−Removed: purchase 150 shares and the fair market value on the date prior to exercise was $15.00, that holder would receive 35 shares without the
−Removed: payment of any additional cash consideration.
−Removed: If an exemption from registration is not available, holders will not be able to exercise
−Removed: their warrants on a cashless basis.
−Removed: The warrants will become exercisable on the later
−Removed: of the completion of an initial business combination and May 13, 2020.
−Removed: The warrants will expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the
−Removed: fifth anniversary of our completion of an initial business combination, or earlier upon redemption.
−Removed: The Company may redeem the outstanding warrants
−Removed: (including any outstanding warrants issued upon exercise of the unit purchase option issued to Maxim Group LLC), in whole and not in part,
−Removed: at a price of $0.01 per warrant:
−Removed: at any time while the warrants are exercisable,
−Removed: upon a minimum of 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption,
−Removed: if, and only if, the last sales price of the ordinary shares equals or exceeds $16.50 per share for any 20 trading days within a 30 trading day period ending three business days before the Company send the notice of redemption, and
−Removed: if, and only if, there is a current registration statement in effect with respect to the ordinary shares underlying such warrants at the time of redemption and for the entire 30-day trading period referred to above and continuing each day thereafter until the date of redemption.
−Removed: If the foregoing conditions are satisfied and
−Removed: the Company would issue a notice of redemption, each warrant holder can exercise his, her or its warrant prior to the scheduled redemption
−Removed: However, the price of the ordinary shares may fall below the $16.50 trigger price as well as the $11.50 warrant exercise price per
−Removed: full share after the redemption notice is issued and not limit our ability to complete the redemption.
−Removed: The redemption criteria for the warrants have
−Removed: been established at a price which is intended to provide warrant holders a reasonable premium to the initial exercise price and provide
−Removed: a sufficient differential between the then-prevailing share price and the warrant exercise price so that if the share price declines as
−Removed: a result of our redemption call, the redemption will not cause the share price to drop below the exercise price of the warrants.
−Removed: If the Company call the warrants for redemption
−Removed: as described above, our management will have the option to require all holders that wish to exercise warrants to do so on a “cashless
−Removed: basis.” In such event, each holder would pay the exercise price by surrendering the whole warrants for that number of ordinary shares
−Removed: equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the product of the number of ordinary shares underlying the warrants, multiplied by the
−Removed: difference between the exercise price of the warrants and the “fair market value” (defined below) by (y) the fair market value.
−Removed: The “fair market value” shall mean the average reported last sale price of the ordinary shares for the 10 trading days ending
−Removed: on the third trading day prior to the date on which the notice of redemption is sent to the holders of warrants.
−Removed: Whether the Company will
−Removed: exercise our option to require all holders to exercise their warrants on a “cashless basis” will depend on a variety of factors
−Removed: including the price of our ordinary shares at the time the warrants are called for redemption, the Company’s cash needs at such
−Removed: time and concerns regarding dilutive share issuances.
−Removed: ORDINARY SHARE SUBJECT TO POSSIBLE REDEMPTION
−Removed: The Company accounts for its ordinary shares subject
−Removed: to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in ASC Topic 480 “ Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity .” Ordinary
−Removed: shares subject to mandatory redemption (if any) are classified as a liability instrument and are measured at fair value.
−Removed: Conditionally
−Removed: redeemable ordinary shares (including ordinary shares that feature redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder
−Removed: or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the Company’s control) are classified as temporary
−Removed: At all other times, ordinary shares are classified as shareholders’ equity.
−Removed: The Company’s ordinary shares feature
−Removed: certain redemption rights that are subject to the occurrence of uncertain future events and considered to be outside of the Company’s

−Removed: FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
−Removed: The fair value of the Company’s financial
−Removed: assets and liabilities reflects management’s estimate of amounts that the Company would have received in connection with the sale
−Removed: of the assets or paid in connection with the transfer of the liabilities in an orderly transaction between market participants at the
−Removed: measurement date.
−Removed: In connection with measuring the fair value of its assets and liabilities, the Company seeks to maximize the use of
−Removed: observable inputs (market data obtained from independent sources) and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs (internal assumptions
−Removed: about how market participants would price assets and liabilities).
−Removed: The following fair value hierarchy is used to classify assets and liabilities
−Removed: based on the observable inputs and unobservable inputs used in order to value the assets and liabilities:
−Removed: Quoted prices in active markets for identical
−Removed: assets or liabilities.
−Removed: An active market for an asset or liability is a market in which transactions for the asset or liability occur with
−Removed: sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.
−Removed: Observable inputs other than Level 1
−Removed: Examples of Level 2 inputs include quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities and quoted prices for identical
−Removed: assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.
−Removed: Unobservable inputs based on our assessment
−Removed: of the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.
−Removed: The following table presents information about
−Removed: the Company’s assets and liabilities that were measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2022 and December
−Removed: 31, 2021, and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques the Company utilized to determine such fair value.

−Removed: The private warrants
−Removed: are accounted for as liabilities in accordance with ASC 815-40 and are presented within warrant liabilities on the unaudited condensed
−Removed: consolidated balance sheets.
−Removed: The Company established
−Removed: the initial fair value for the private warrants on May 16, 2019, the date of the Company’s IPO, using a Black-Scholes model.
−Removed: Company allocated the proceeds received from the sale of Private Units, first to the private warrants based on their fair values as determined
−Removed: at initial measurement, with the remaining proceeds recorded as ordinary shares subject to possible redemption, and ordinary shares based
−Removed: on their relative fair values recorded at the initial measurement date.
−Removed: The warrants were classified as Level 3 at the initial measurement
−Removed: date due to the use of unobservable inputs.
−Removed: The key inputs
−Removed: into the binomial model and Black-Scholes model were as follows at their measurement dates:
−Removed: September 30,
−Removed: Risk-free interest rate
−Removed: Exercise price
−Removed: As of September
−Removed: 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the aggregate value of the private warrants was $ 0.013 and $ 0.49 million, respectively.
−Removed: The change in
−Removed: fair value for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was approximately $ 477,000 .
−Removed: The change in fair value for the nine months ended
−Removed: September 30, 2021 was approximately $ 90,000 .
−Removed: To the extent that valuation is based on models
−Removed: or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment.
−Removed: Because of the
−Removed: inherent uncertainty of valuation, those estimated values may be materially higher or lower than the values that would have been used
−Removed: had a ready market for the investments existed.
−Removed: Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised by the Company in determining fair value
−Removed: is greatest for investments categorized in Level 3.
−Removed: Level 3 financial liabilities consist of the private warrant liability for which there
−Removed: is no current market for these securities such that the determination of fair value requires significant judgment or estimation.
−Removed: in fair value measurements categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy are analyzed each period based on changes in estimates
−Removed: or assumptions and recorded as appropriate.
