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,
such as this Report, 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.
Our management evaluated, with the participation of our current chief executive officer and chief financial officer (our “Certifying
Officers”), the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2025, pursuant to Rule 15d-15(e) under
the Exchange Act. Based upon that evaluation, our Certifying Officers concluded that, as of December 31, 2025, our disclosure controls
and procedures were effective.
24
We do not expect that our
disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all errors and all instances of fraud. Disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how
well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures
are met. Further, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the
benefits must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all disclosure controls and procedures, no
evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures can provide absolute assurance that we have detected all our control deficiencies and
instances of fraud, if any. The design of disclosure controls and procedures also is based partly on certain assumptions about the likelihood
of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future
conditions.
Management’s Report on Internal Controls
Over Financial Reporting
This Annual Report on Form 10-K
does not include a report of management’s assessment regarding internal control over financial reporting or an attestation report
of our independent registered public accounting firm due to a transition period established by rules of the SEC for newly public companies.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial
Reporting
There were no changes in our
internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the most
recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial
reporting.

Below is a summary of the
business experience of each our executive officers and directors:
Mr. WONG, Kenneth Ka
Chun
Mr. Kenneth Wong, our CEO
and Chairman since September 2021, has over 25 years of experience in finance and operations, with a track record of executing notable
M&A deals. Since their inceptions in September 2011 and December 2008 respectively, Mr. Kenneth Wong has been the founder, Chairman
and CEO of both Keen Vision Capital (BVI) Limited, a single-family office specializing in PE investments with minority stakes, which has
a track record of successful exits in the high technology, agriculture, and consumer goods industries, and Keen Vision International Limited,
a PE investment firm targeting controlling or majority stakes. During Mr. Kenneth Wong’s time in both companies, he has been managing
fundraising process and operations, providing restructuring, strategic and listing advice for investee companies, and all investments
were executed with a view to exit via listing on an international stock exchange or trade sale.
Prior to this, from October
2002 to February 2004, Mr. Kenneth Wong was first the CFO of the Shanghai A-share listed pharmaceutical research & development
and manufacturing subsidiary Topsun Science and Technology Company Limited (SH600771), before becoming the Senior Vice President of the
Topsun Pharmaceutical Group from February 2004 to August 2008. During his time at Topsun, Mr. Kenneth Wong oversaw acquisitions of two
leading Chinese national pharmaceuticals, Yunnan Baiyao and Shanxi Guangyuyuan, as well as the sale of Qidong Gaitianli Pharmaceutical
Co., Ltd. to Germany’s Bayer Group, in what was then the first major cross-border M&A deal in the Chinese pharmaceutical industry,
and also the first cross-border acquisition of a Chinese pharmaceutical company by a Fortune 50 company. From September 2001 to September
2002, Mr. Kenneth Wong was a direct investment associate at investment company AIG Investment Corporation, focusing on emerging markets
and health care/pharmaceuticals. Before AIG from September 1995 to February 2000, Mr. Kenneth Wong was a corporate finance associate and
later Associate Director in the corporate finance division at SBC Warburg (later renamed UBS Investment Bank), where he was the buy-side
financial advisor in a $38 billion acquisition; what was then the largest M&A transaction in Asia. Mr. Kenneth Wong began his career
in corporate finance as an intern at Morgan Stanley from July 1994 to December 1994. Mr. Kenneth Wong earned his Bachelor of Commerce
degree with triple majors in finance, marketing, and entrepreneurship from McGill University.
We believe Mr. Kenneth Wong
is well-qualified to serve as a member of our board of directors given his experience, entrepreneurial vision, industry expertise, and
global network.

Director Independence
Nasdaq requires that a majority
of our board must be composed of “Independent Directors.” Currently, Mr. Peter Ding, Mr. William Chu, and Prof. Albert
Yu would each be considered an “Independent Director” under the Nasdaq listing rules, which 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 Independent Directors will have regularly scheduled meetings at which only Independent Directors are
present.
We will only enter into a
business combination if it is approved by a majority of our Independent Directors. Additionally, we will only enter into transactions
with our officers and directors and their respective affiliates that are on terms no less favorable to us than could be obtained from
independent parties. Any related-party transactions must also be approved by our audit committee and a majority of disinterested Independent
Directors.
29
Board Committees
The Board has a standing audit,
nominating and compensation committee. The independent directors oversee director nominations. Each audit committee and compensation committee
has a charter, which was filed with the SEC as exhibits to the Registration Statement on Form S-1 on February 9, 2023.
Audit Committee
We have established an audit
committee of the board of directors, which consists of Mr. Peter Ding, Mr. William Chu, and Prof. Albert Yu, each of whom is an independent
director under Nasdaq’s listing standards. Mr. Peter Ding is the Chairperson of the audit committee. The audit committee’s
duties, which are specified in our Audit Committee Charter, include, but are not limited to:
●
reviewing and discussing with management and the independent auditor the annual audited financial statements, and recommending to the board whether the audited financial statements should be included in our Form 10-K;
●
discussing with management and the independent auditor significant financial reporting issues and judgments made in connection with the preparation of our financial statements;
●
discussing with management major risk assessment and risk management policies;
●
monitoring the independence of the independent auditor;
●
verifying the rotation of the lead (or coordinating) audit partner having primary responsibility for the audit and the audit partner responsible for reviewing the audit as required by law;
●
reviewing and approving all related-party transactions;
●
inquiring and discussing with management our compliance with applicable laws and regulations;
●
pre-approving all audit services and permitted non-audit services to be performed by our independent auditor, including the fees and terms of the services to be performed;
●
appointing or replacing the independent auditor;
●
determining the compensation and oversight of the work of the independent auditor (including resolution of disagreements between management and the independent auditor regarding financial reporting) for the purpose of preparing or issuing an audit report or related work;
●
establishing procedures for the receipt, retention and treatment of complaints received by us regarding accounting, internal accounting controls or reports which raise material issues regarding our financial statements or accounting policies; and
●
approving reimbursement of expenses incurred by our management team in identifying potential target businesses.
Financial Experts on Audit Committee
The audit committee will at
all times be composed exclusively of independent directors who are “financially literate” as defined under Nasdaq listing
standards. Nasdaq listing standards define “financially literate” as being able to read and understand fundamental financial
statements, including a company’s balance sheet, income statement and cash flow statement.
30
In addition, we must certify
to Nasdaq that the committee has, and will continue to have, at least one member who has past employment experience in finance or accounting,
requisite professional certification in accounting, or other comparable experience or background that results in the individual’s
financial sophistication. The board of directors has determined that Mr. Peter Ding is qualified as an “audit committee financial
expert,” as defined under rules and regulations of the SEC.
Nominating Committee
We have established a nominating
committee of the board of directors, which consists of Mr. Peter Ding, Mr. William Chu, and Prof. Albert Yu, each of whom is an independent
director under Nasdaq’s listing standards. Mr. William Chu is the Chairperson of the nominating committee. The nominating committee
is responsible for overseeing the selection of persons to be nominated to serve on our board of directors. The nominating committee considers
persons identified by its members, management, shareholders, investment bankers and others.
Guidelines for Selecting Director Nominees
The guidelines for selecting
nominees, which are specified in the Nominating Committee Charter, generally provide that the persons to be nominated:
●
whether the candidate is independent pursuant to the requirements of the Nasdaq Global Market;
●
whether the candidate is accomplished in his or her field and has a reputation, both personal and professional, that is consistent with the image and reputation of the Company;
●
whether the candidate has the ability to read and understand basic financial statements;
●
whether the candidate has relevant education, experience and expertise and would be able to provide insights and practical wisdom based upon that education, experience and expertise;
●
whether the candidate has knowledge of the Company and issues affecting the Company;
●
whether the candidate is committed to enhancing shareholder value;
●
whether the candidate fully understands, or has the capacity to fully understand, the legal responsibilities of a director and the governance processes of a public company;
●
whether the candidate is of high moral and ethical character and would be willing to apply sound, objective and independent business judgment, and to assume broad fiduciary responsibility;
●
whether the candidate has, and would be willing to commit, the required hours necessary to discharge the duties of board membership;
●
whether the candidate has any prohibitive interlocking relationships or conflicts of interest;
●
whether the candidate is able to develop a good working relationship with other board members and contribute to the board’s working relationship with the senior management of the Company; and
●
whether the candidate is able to suggest business opportunities to the Company.
The nominating committee will
consider a number of qualifications relating to management and leadership experience, background and integrity and professionalism in
evaluating a person’s candidacy for membership on the board of directors. The nominating committee may require certain skills or
attributes, such as financial or accounting experience, to meet specific board needs that arise from time to time and will also consider
the overall experience and makeup of its members to obtain a broad and diverse mix of board members. The board of directors will also
consider director candidates recommended for nomination by our shareholders during such times as they are seeking proposed nominees to
stand for election at the next annual meeting of shareholders (or, if applicable, a special meeting of shareholders). Our shareholders
that wish to nominate a director for election to the Board should follow the procedures set forth in our amended and restated memorandum
and articles of association. The nominating committee does not distinguish among nominees recommended by shareholders and other persons.
31
Compensation Committee
We have established a compensation
committee of the board of directors, which consists of Mr. Peter Ding, Mr. William Chu, and Prof. Albert Yu, each of whom is an independent
director under Nasdaq’s listing standards. Prof. Albert Cheung-Hoi Yu is the Chairperson of the compensation committee. The compensation
committee’s duties, which are specified in our Compensation Committee Charter, include, but are not limited to:
●
reviewing at least annually the goals and objectives of the Company’s executive compensation plans, and amend, or recommend that the board amend, these goals and objectives if the committee deems it appropriate;
●
reviewing at least annually the Company’s executive compensation plans in light of the Company’s goals and objectives with respect to such plans, and, if the committee deems it appropriate, adopt, or recommend to the board the adoption of, new, or the amendment of existing, executive compensation plans;
●
reviewing our executive compensation policies and plans;
●
implementing and administering our incentive compensation equity-based remuneration plans;
●
assisting management in complying with our proxy statement and annual report disclosure requirements; and
●
if required, producing a report on executive compensation to be included in our annual proxy statement.
No other compensation of any
kind, including finders, consulting or other similar fees, will be paid to any of our existing shareholders, including our directors or
any of their respective affiliates, prior to, or for any services they render in order to effectuate, the consummation of a business combination.
Accordingly, it is likely that prior to the consummation of an initial business combination, the compensation committee will only be responsible
for the review and recommendation of any compensation arrangements entered into in connection with such initial business combination.
Conflicts of Interest
Potential investors should
be aware of the following potential conflicts of interest:
●
None of our officers and directors is required to commit their full time to our affairs and, accordingly, they may have conflicts of interest in allocating their time among various business activities.
●
In the course of their other business activities, our officers and directors may become aware of investment and business opportunities which may be appropriate for presentation to our company as well as the other entities with which they are affiliated. Our management has pre-existing fiduciary duties and contractual obligations and may have conflicts of interest in determining to which entity a particular business opportunity should be presented.
●
Our officers and directors may in the future become affiliated with entities, including other blank check companies, engaged in business activities similar to those intended to be conducted by our company.
●
The insider shares owned by our officers and directors will be released from escrow only if a business combination is successfully completed and subject to certain other limitations. Additionally, our officers and directors will not receive distributions from the Trust Account with respect to any of their insider shares if we do not complete a business combination. Furthermore, our initial shareholders have agreed that the private units will not be sold or transferred by them until after we have completed our initial business combination. In addition, our officers and directors may loan funds to us after this offering and 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. For the foregoing reasons, the personal and financial interests of our directors and executive officers may influence their motivation in identifying and selecting a target business, completing a business combination in a timely manner and securing the release of their shares.
32
Under BVI law, directors owe
the following fiduciary duties:
(1)
duty to act in good faith in what the director believes to be in the best interests of the company as a whole;
(2)
duty to exercise powers for the purposes for which those powers were conferred and not for a collateral purpose;
(3)
directors should not improperly fetter the exercise of future discretion;
(4)
duty not to put themselves in a position in which there is a conflict between their duty to the company and their personal interests; and
(5)
duty to exercise independent judgment.
In addition to the above,
directors also owe a duty of care which is not fiduciary in nature. This duty has been defined as a requirement to act as a reasonably
diligent person having both the general knowledge, skill and experience that may reasonably be expected of a person carrying out the same
functions as are carried out by that director in relation to the company and the general knowledge skill and experience which that director
has.
As set out above, directors
have a duty not to put themselves in a position of conflict and this includes a duty not to engage in self-dealing, or to otherwise benefit
as a result of their position. However, in some instances what would otherwise be a breach of this duty can be forgiven and/or authorized
in advance by the shareholders provided that there is full disclosure by the directors. This can be done by way of permission granted
in the amended and restated memorandum and articles of association or alternatively by shareholder approval at general meetings.
Accordingly, as a result of
multiple business affiliations, our officers and directors may have similar legal obligations relating to presenting business opportunities
meeting the above-listed criteria to multiple entities. In addition, conflicts of interest may arise when our board evaluates a particular
business opportunity with respect to the above-listed criteria. We cannot assure you that any of the above-mentioned conflicts will be
resolved in our favor. Furthermore, most of our officers and directors have pre-existing fiduciary obligations to other businesses of
which they are officers or directors. To the extent they identify business opportunities which may be suitable for the entities to which
they owe pre-existing fiduciary obligations, our officers and directors will honor those fiduciary obligations. Accordingly, it is possible
they may not present opportunities to us that otherwise may be attractive to us unless the entities to which they owe pre-existing fiduciary
obligations and any successors to such entities have declined to accept such opportunities.
In order to minimize potential
conflicts of interest which may arise from multiple corporate affiliations, each of our officers and directors has contractually agreed,
pursuant to a written agreement with us, until the earliest of a business combination, our liquidation or such time as he ceases to be
an officer or director, to present to our company for our consideration, prior to presentation to any other entity, any suitable business
opportunity which may reasonably be required to be presented to us, subject to any pre-existing fiduciary or contractual obligations he
might have.

In connection with the vote
required for any initial business combination, all of our existing shareholders, including all of our officers and directors, have agreed
to vote their respective insider shares and private shares in favor of any proposed initial business combination. In addition, they have
agreed to waive their respective rights to participate in any liquidation distribution with respect to those ordinary shares acquired
by them prior to this offering. However. if they purchase ordinary shares in this offering or in the open market, they would be entitled
to participate in any liquidation distribution in respect of such shares but have agreed not to convert such shares (or sell their shares
in any tender offer) in connection with the consummation of our initial business combination or an amendment to our amended and restated
memorandum and articles of association relating to pre-business combination activity.
All ongoing and future transactions
between us and any of our officers and directors or their respective affiliates will be on terms believed by us to be no less favorable
to us than are available from unaffiliated third parties. Such transactions will require prior approval by our audit committee and a majority
of our uninterested “independent” directors, or the members of our board who do not have an interest in the transaction, in
either case who had access, at our expense, to our attorneys or independent legal counsel. We will not enter into any such transaction
unless our audit committee and a majority of our disinterested “independent” directors determine that the terms of such transaction
are no less favorable to us than those that would be available to us with respect to such a transaction from unaffiliated third parties.
To further minimize conflicts
of interest, we have agreed not to consummate our initial business combination with an entity that is affiliated with any of our officers,
directors or initial shareholders, unless we have obtained (1) an opinion from an independent investment banking firm that the initial
business combination is fair to our unaffiliated shareholders from a financial point of view and (2) the approval of a majority of
our disinterested and Independent Directors (if we have any at that time). Furthermore, in no event will any of our initial shareholders,
officers, directors, special advisors or their respective affiliates be paid any finder’s fee, consulting fee or other similar compensation
prior to, or for any services they render in order to effectuate the consummation of our initial business combination.
Code of Ethics
We adopted a code of conduct
and ethics applicable to our directors, officers and employees in accordance with applicable federal securities laws. The code of ethics
codifies the business and ethical principles that govern all aspects of our business.
Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance
Section 16(a) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, requires our executive officers, directors and persons who beneficially own more
than 10% of a registered class of our equity securities to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission initial reports of ownership
and reports of changes in ownership of our ordinary shares and other equity securities. These executive officers, directors, and greater
than 10% beneficial owners are required by SEC regulation to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) forms filed by such reporting
persons.
Based solely on our review
of such forms furnished to us and written representations from certain reporting persons, we believe that all filing requirements applicable
to our executive officers, directors and greater than 10% beneficial owners were filed in a timely manner.
35
Item 11. Executive Compensation.
Employment Agreements
We have not entered into any
employment agreements with our executive officers and have not made any agreements to provide benefits upon termination of employment.
Executive Officers and Director Compensation
We will pay $10,000 per month
administrative fee to the sponsor for up to 9 months (or up to 21 months if the business combination period is extended, including
automatic extension period). No other compensation of any kind, including finders, consulting or other similar fees, has been paid or
will be paid to any of our existing shareholders, including our directors, or any of their respective affiliates, prior to, or for any
services they render in order to effectuate, the consummation of a business combination. However, such 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. There is no limit on the amount of these out-of-pocket expenses and there
will be no review of the reasonableness of the expenses by anyone other than our board of directors and audit committee, which includes
persons who may seek reimbursement, or a court of competent jurisdiction if such reimbursement is challenged.
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 these fees will be fully disclosed to shareholders, to the extent then known, in the tender offer
materials or proxy solicitation materials furnished to our shareholders 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 of 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.
Item 12. Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management
and Related Shareholder Matters.

In order to meet our working
capital needs, our initial shareholders, officers and directors or their affiliates may, but are not obligated to, loan us funds, from
time to time or at any time, in whatever amount they deem reasonable in their sole discretion.
Our sponsor and our executive
officers and directors are deemed to be our “promoters,” as that term is defined under the federal securities laws.
37
Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director
Independence.
In September 2021, an
aggregate of 3,737,500 insider shares were issued to our Sponsor for an aggregate contribution of $25,000. If the underwriters do not
exercise all or a portion of their over-allotment option, our initial shareholders have agreed that up to an aggregate of 487,500 ordinary
shares in proportion to the portion of the over-allotment option that was not exercised are subject to forfeiture and would be immediately
cancelled.
If the underwriters determine
the size of the offering should be increased (including pursuant to Rule 462(b) under the Securities Act) or decreased, a share
capitalization or a contribution back to capital, as applicable, would be effectuated in order to maintain our initial shareholder’s
ownership at a percentage of the number of shares to be sold in this offering.
In order to meet our working
capital needs following the consummation of the Initial Public Offering, our initial shareholders, officers and directors and their respective
affiliates may, but are not obligated to, loan us funds, from time to time or at any time, in whatever amount they deem reasonable in
their sole discretion. Each loan would be evidenced by a promissory note. The notes would either be paid upon consummation of our initial
business combination, without interest, or, at the lender’s discretion, up to $1,000,000 of the notes may be converted upon consummation
of our business combination into private units at a price of $10.00 per unit (which, for example, would result in the holders being issued
units to acquire 100,000 ordinary shares and 100,000 warrants to purchase 100,000 ordinary shares if $1,000,000 of notes were so
converted). Our shareholders have approved the issuance of the units and underlying securities upon conversion of such notes, to the extent
the holder wishes to so convert them at the time of the consummation of our initial business combination. If we do not complete a business
combination, the loans would be repaid out of funds not held in the Trust Account, and only to the extent available.
The holders of our insider
shares issued and outstanding, as well as the holders of the private units (and all underlying securities), will be entitled to registration
rights pursuant to an agreement to be signed prior to or on the effective date of the Initial Public Offering. The holders of a majority
of these securities are entitled to make up to three demands that we register such securities. The holders of the majority of the insider
shares can elect to exercise these registration rights at any time after the initial business combination. The holders of a majority of
the private units or securities issued in payment of working capital loans can elect to exercise these registration rights at any time
after we consummate a business combination. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect
to registration statements filed subsequent to our consummation of a business combination. We will bear the expenses incurred in connection
with the filing of any such registration statements.
On December 31, 2022, we issued
an unsecured promissory note to the Sponsor, pursuant to which we may borrow up to an aggregate principal amount of $500,000 (the “Promissory
Note”). The Promissory Note is non-interest bearing and payable on the earlier of consummation of the IPO or the date on which we
determine not to conduct the IPO. As of December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, our sponsor had loaned us an aggregate of $0, $0, and $0, respectively,
to be used to pay formation expenses and a portion of the expenses of the IPO. The loan is payable without interest on the date
on which we consummated our IPO. We repaid this loan from the proceeds of the Initial Public Offering not being placed in the Trust Account.
Simultaneously with the closing
of the IPO, the Company consummated the Private Placement with KVC Sponsor LLC, the sponsor, of 678,575 units at a price of $10.00 per
unit, generating total proceeds of $6,785,750. The private units are identical to the units sold in the IPO except as otherwise described
in the annual report. The sponsor have agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of the private units or the underlying securities (except
to the same permitted transferees as the insider shares) until 30 calendar days after the completion of our initial business combination.
KVC Sponsor LLC, our sponsor,
has agreed that, through the earlier of our consummation of our initial business combination or our liquidation, it will make available
to us certain general and administrative services, including office space, utilities and administrative support, as we may require from
time to time. We have agreed to pay $10,000 per month for these services commencing on the closing date of the Initial Public Offering
for 15 months (or 21 months if we extend the business combination period) after we entered into a letter of intent on March 22, 2024.
However, pursuant to the terms of such agreement, we may delay payment of such monthly fee upon a determination by our audit committee
that we lack sufficient funds held outside the trust to pay actual or anticipated expenses in connection with our initial business combination.
Any such unpaid amount will accrue without interest and be due and payable no later than the date of the consummation of our initial business
combination. We believe that the fee charged by KVC Sponsor LLC is at least as favorable as we could have obtained from an unaffiliated
person.
As of December 31, 2025 and
2024, we had a temporary advance of $1,315,880 and $575,085 from our Sponsor, respectively. The balance is unsecured, interest-free and
has no fixed terms of repayment.
38
On each of October 28, 2024,
November 20, 2024, December 23, 2024, January 22, 2025, February 24, 2025, March 24, 2025, April 25, 2025, May 20, 2025 and June 23, 2025,
the Company issued an unsecured promissory note in an amount of $200,000 to the Sponsor, pursuant to which such amount has been deposited
into the Trust Account in order to extend the amount of available time to complete a business combination until July 27, 2025. On each
of July 23, 2025, August 18, 2025, September 19, 2025, October 21, 2025, November 18, 2025 and December 19, 2025, the Company issued an
unsecured promissory note in an amount of $ 144,670.38 to the Sponsor, pursuant to which such amount has been deposited into the Trust
Account in order to extend the amount of available time to complete a business combination until January 27, 2026. On January 26, 2026,
the Company issued an unsecured promissory note in an amount of $ 120,000 to the Sponsor, pursuant to which such amount has been deposited
into the Trust Account in order to extend the amount of available time to complete a business combination until April 27, 2026. The notes
are non-interest bearing and are payable upon the closing of a business combination. In addition, the notes may be converted, at the lender’s
discretion, into additional Private Units at a price of $10.00 per unit. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the note payable balance was
$2,668,022 and $600,000, respectively.
Other than the fees described
above, no compensation or fees of any kind, including finder’s fees, consulting fees or other similar compensation, will be paid
to any of our initial shareholders, officers or directors who owned our ordinary shares prior to the IPO, or to any of their respective
affiliates, prior to or with respect to the business combination (regardless of the type of transaction that it is).
We will reimburse our officers
and directors for any reasonable out-of-pocket business expenses incurred by them in connection with certain activities on our behalf
such as identifying and investigating possible target businesses and business combinations. There is no limit on the amount of out-of-pocket
expenses reimbursable by us; provided, however, that to the extent such expenses exceed the available proceeds not deposited in the Trust
Account, such expenses would not be reimbursed by us unless we consummate an initial business combination. Our audit committee will review
and approve all reimbursements and payments made to any initial shareholder or member of our management team, or our or their respective
affiliates, and any reimbursements and payments made to members of our audit committee will be reviewed and approved by our board of directors,
with any interested director abstaining from such review and approval.
All ongoing and future transactions
between us and any of our officers and directors or their respective affiliates will be on terms believed by us to be no less favorable
to us than are available from unaffiliated third parties. Such transactions, including the payment of any compensation, will require prior
approval by a majority of our uninterested “independent” directors (to the extent we have any) or the members of our board
who do not have an interest in the transaction, in either case who had access, at our expense, to our attorneys or independent legal counsel.
We will not enter into any such transaction unless our disinterested “independent” directors (or, if there are no “independent”
directors, our disinterested directors) determine that the terms of such transaction are no less favorable to us than those that would
be available to us with respect to such a transaction from unaffiliated third parties.
Related Party Policy
Our Code of Ethics requires
us to avoid, wherever possible, all related party transactions that could result in actual or potential conflicts of interests, except
under guidelines approved by the board of directors (or the audit committee). Related-party transactions are defined as transactions in
which (1) the aggregate amount involved will or may be expected to exceed $120,000 in any calendar year, (2) we or any of our
subsidiaries is a participant, and (3) any (a) executive officer, director or nominee for election as a director, (b) greater
than 5% beneficial owner of our ordinary shares, or (c) immediate family member, of the persons referred to in clauses (a) and
(b), has or will have a direct or indirect material interest (other than solely as a result of being a director or a less than 10% beneficial
owner of another entity). A conflict-of-interest situation can arise when a person takes actions or has interests that may make it difficult
to perform his or her work objectively and effectively. Conflicts of interest may also arise if a person, or a member of his or her family,
receives improper personal benefits as a result of his or her position.
Our audit committee, pursuant
to its written charter, will be responsible for reviewing and approving related-party transactions to the extent we enter into such transactions.
All ongoing and future transactions between us and any of our officers and directors or their respective affiliates will be on terms believed
by us to be no less favorable to us than are available from unaffiliated third parties. Such transactions will require prior approval
by our audit committee and a majority of our uninterested “independent” directors, or the members of our board who do not
have an interest in the transaction, in either case who had access, at our expense, to our attorneys or independent legal counsel. We
will not enter into any such transaction unless our audit committee and a majority of our disinterested “independent” directors
determine that the terms of such transaction are no less favorable to us than those that would be available to us with respect to such
a transaction from unaffiliated third parties. Additionally, we require each of our directors and executive officers to complete a directors’
and officers’ questionnaire that elicits information about related party transactions.
39
These procedures are intended
to determine whether any such related party transaction impairs the independence of a director or presents a conflict of interest on the
part of a director, employee or officer.
To further minimize potential
conflicts of interest, we have agreed not to consummate a business combination with an entity which is affiliated with any of our initial
shareholders unless we obtain an opinion from an independent investment banking firm that the business combination is fair to our unaffiliated
shareholders from a financial point of view. Furthermore, in no event will any of our existing officers, directors or initial shareholders,
or any entity with which they are affiliated, be paid any finder’s fee, consulting fee or other compensation prior to, or for any
services they render in order to effectuate, the consummation of a business combination.
Director Independence
Nasdaq listing standards require
that a majority of our board of directors be independent. For a description of the director independence, see above Part III, Item 10
– Directors, Executive Officers and Corporate Governance.
Item 14 . Principal Accountant Fees and
Services.
The following is a summary
of fees paid or to be paid to Adeptus Partners, LLC (“Adeptus”), for services rendered.
Audit Fees . Audit fees
consist of fees billed for professional services rendered for the audit of our year-end financial statements and services that are normally
provided by Adeptus in connection with regulatory filings. For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the aggregate fees billed by
Adeptus totaled approximately $70,000 and $37,000 for professional services rendered for the audit of our annual financial statements
and review of the financial information included in our regulatory filings.
Audit - Related Fees .
For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, we did not pay Adeptus for consultations concerning financial accounting and reporting
standards.
Tax Fees . For the years
ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, we did not pay Adeptus for tax planning and tax advice.
All Other Fees . During
the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, we did not pay Adeptus for other services.
Pre-Approval Policy
Our audit committee was formed
upon the consummation of our Initial Public Offering. As a result, the audit committee did not pre-approve all of the foregoing services,
although any services rendered prior to the formation of our audit committee were approved by our board of directors. Since the formation
of our audit committee, and on a going-forward basis, the audit committee has and will pre-approve all auditing services and permitted
non-audit services to be performed for us by our auditors, including the fees and terms thereof (subject to the de minimis exceptions
for non-audit services described in the Exchange Act which are approved by the audit committee prior to the completion of the audit).

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and
Shareholders of Keen Vision Acquisition Corporation
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Keen Vision Acquisition Corporation (the Company) as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the related consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income, changes in shareholders’ deficit, 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 December 31, 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.
Substantial Doubt about the Company’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company has a significant working capital deficiency, accumulated deficit and needs to raise additional funds to meet its obligations and sustain operations 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.
We have served as the Company’s auditor since 2023.

KEEN VISION ACQUISITION CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS BACKGROUND
Keen Vision Acquisition Corporation (the “Company” or “we”, “us” and “our”) is a blank check company incorporated on June 18, 2021, under the laws of the British Virgin Islands for the purpose of acquiring, engaging in a share exchange, share reconstruction and amalgamation, purchasing all or substantially all of the assets of, entering into contractual arrangements, or engaging in any other similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities (“Business Combination”). The Company is not limited to a particular industry or geographic region for purposes of consummating a Business Combination.
The Company is an early stage company and emerging growth company and, as such, the Company is subject to all of the risks associated with early stage companies and emerging growth companies. The Company has selected December 31 as its fiscal year end.
As of December 31, 2025, the Company had not commenced any operations. All activities through December 31, 2025 relate to the Company’s formation, the initial public offering (the “Initial Public Offering” or “IPO”) and activities necessary to identify a potential target and prepare for a Business Combination. The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of a Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company will generate non-operating income in the form of interest income and changes in unrealized appreciation of Trust Account assets from the proceeds derived from the Initial Public Offering.
Financing
The registration statement for the Company’s Initial Public Offering was declared effective on July 24, 2023. On July 27, 2023, the Company consummated the Initial Public Offering of 14,950,000 units (the “Public Units”), which includes 1,950,000 Public Units upon the full exercise by the underwriter of its over-allotment option, at $ 10.00 per Public Unit, generating gross proceeds of $ 149,500,000 to the Company. Each Public Unit consists of one ordinary share (“Public Share”) and one redeemable warrant (“Public Warrant”) to purchase one ordinary share at an exercise price of $ 11.50 per share.
Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the sale of 678,575 units (the “Private Placement Units”) at a price of $ 10.00 per Private Placement Unit in a private placement to KVC Sponsor LLC (the “Sponsor”), generating gross proceeds of $ 6,785,750 to the Company. Each Private Placement Unit consists of one ordinary share (“Private Placement Share”) and one redeemable warrant (“Private Warrant”) to purchase one ordinary share at an exercise price of $ 11.50 per whole share.
Transaction costs amounted to $ 6,597,980 , consisting of $ 2,990,000 of underwriting commissions, $ 2,990,000 of deferred underwriting commissions and $ 617,980 of other offering costs. In addition, at July 27, 2023, cash of $ 1,593,452 was held outside of the Trust Account and is available for the payment of offering costs and for working capital purposes. Cash of $ 151,368,750 was transferred to the Trust Account on July 27, 2023.
Trust Account
The aggregate amount of $ 151,368,750 ($ 10.125 per Public Unit) held in a trust account (“Trust Account”) established for the benefit of the Company’s public shareholders and maintained by Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, acting as trustee, will be invested only in U.S. government treasury bills, with a maturity of 185 days or less or in money market funds investing solely in U.S. Treasuries and meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”). Except with respect to interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account that may be released to the Company to pay its taxes, if any, the funds in the Trust Account will not be released until the earliest of (i) the completion of the Company’s initial Business Combination, (ii) the redemption of any public shares properly tendered in connection with a shareholder vote to amend the Company’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association to (A) modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to redeem 100 % of its public shares if the Company does not complete its initial Business Combination within nine months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering (or up to 21 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering if the Company extends the period of time to consummate a Business Combination, including Automatic Extension Period) or (B) with respect to any other provision relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-business combination activity and (iii) the redemption of all of the Company’s public shares if the Company is unable to complete its initial Business Combination within nine months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering (or up to 21 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering if the Company extends the period of time to consummate a Business Combination, including Automatic Extension Period), subject to applicable law.
F- 7
Business Combination
The Company’s management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and sale of the Private Placement Units, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be applied generally toward consummating a Business Combination. Nasdaq rules provide that the Business Combination must be with one or more target businesses that together have a fair market value equal to at least 80 % of the balance in the Trust Account (less any deferred underwriting commissions and taxes payable on interest earned) at the time of the signing of an agreement to enter into a Business Combination. The Company will only complete a Business Combination if the post-Business Combination company owns or acquires 50 % or more of the outstanding voting securities of the target or otherwise acquires a controlling interest in the target sufficient for it not to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully effect a Business Combination.
The Company will provide its shareholders with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their public shares upon the completion of a Business Combination either (i) in connection with a shareholder meeting called to approve the Business Combination or (ii) by means of a tender offer. In connection with an Initial Business Combination, the Company may seek shareholder approval of a Business Combination at a meeting called for such purpose at which shareholders may seek to redeem their shares, regardless of whether they vote for or against a Business Combination. The Company shall not consummate such Business Combination unless (i) the Company has net tangible assets of at least US$ 5,000,001 after payment of the deferred underwriting commissions, either immediately prior to, or upon such consummation of, or any greater net tangible asset or cash requirement that may be contained in the agreement relating to, such Business Combination; or (ii) otherwise the Company is exempt from the provisions of Rule 419 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company seeks shareholder approval of a Business Combination and it does not conduct redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules, the Company’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association provides that a public shareholder, together with any affiliate of such shareholder or any other person with whom such shareholder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined under Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), will be restricted from seeking redemption rights with respect to 15 % or more of the public shares without the Company’s prior written consent.
If a shareholder vote is not required and the Company does not decide to hold a shareholder vote for business or other legal reasons, the Company will, pursuant to its Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, offer such redemption pursuant to the tender offer rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), and file tender offer documents containing substantially the same information as would be included in a proxy statement with the SEC prior to completing a Business Combination.
The shareholders will be entitled to redeem their public shares for a pro rata portion of the amount then in the Trust Account (initially $ 10.125 per public share, subject to increase of up to an additional $ 0.10 per public share per each three-month extension in the event that the Sponsor elects to extend the period of time to consummate a Business Combination (see below), plus any pro rata interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay its tax obligations). The per-share amount to be distributed to shareholders who redeem their public shares will not be reduced by the deferred underwriting commissions the Company will pay to the underwriter (as discussed in Note 7). There will be no redemption rights upon the completion of a Business Combination with respect to the Company’s warrants. The Public Shares 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 .”
F- 8
The Company will proceed with a Business Combination if (i) the Company has net tangible assets of at least $ 5,000,001 upon such consummation of a Business Combination or (ii) otherwise the Company is exempt from the provisions of Rule 419 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended; and, if the Company seeks shareholder approval, a majority of the outstanding shares voted are voted in favor of the Business Combination. If a shareholder vote is not required and the Company does not decide to hold a shareholder vote for business or other legal reasons, the Company will, pursuant to its Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, offer such redemption pursuant to the tender offer rules of the SEC, and file tender offer documents containing substantially the same information as would be included in a proxy statement with the SEC prior to completing a Business Combination.
The Sponsor and any of the Company’s officers or directors that may hold Founder Shares (as described in Note 5) (as defined the “initial shareholders”) are identical to the Public Shares except that the Founder Shares are subject to certain transfer restrictions, as described in more detail below. The Sponsor, officers and directors have entered into a letter agreement with us, pursuant to which they have agreed to waive their redemption rights with respect to their Founder Shares, Private Placement Shares and Public Shares in connection with the completion of the initial business combination, with respect thereto, a vote to amend the provisions of the Company’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, or a tender offer by the Company prior to a Business Combination.
On March 22, 2024, the Company entered into a non-binding letter of intent (the “LOI”) with a business combination target (the “Target”), regarding a potential business combination involving the Target and its subsidiaries (the “Proposed Transaction”). The Target is a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company based in Boston, U.S., focusing on i) the research, development, manufacture and use of self-developed pioneering human stem cell-based bioengineering technology platform for novel drug discovery; and ii) the development of next-generation cell and gene therapies for a range of difficult-to-treat or incurable diseases. With a pipeline of therapeutic candidates, the Target’s several experimental gene therapies have already obtained U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) Investigational New Drug (IND) approvals as ongoing clinical trials at multiple premier hospitals in the U.S. with active patient enrolments.
The LOI is non-binding and no agreement providing for any Proposed Transaction or any other transaction or the participation by either party therein will be deemed to exist unless and until definitive agreements have been executed. Pursuant to the IPO prospectus dated July 24, 2023, (Registration No. 333-269659) filed by the Company for the initial public offering (the “IPO”), the Company is entitled to an automatic six-month extension to complete a business combination (the “Automatic Extension Period”) after the execution of the LOI and has 15 months from the closing of its IPO, or October 27, 2024, to complete its initial business combination period.
On September 3, 2024, the Company has entered into merger agreement (“Merger Agreement”) with Medera Inc. (“Medera”). The Company will incorporate a Cayman Islands exempted company (“Acquirer”) to be a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company for the purpose of the merger of Company with and into the Acquirer (the “Reincorporation Merger”), in which Acquirer will be the surviving entity. Acquirer upon its incorporation will form a Cayman Islands exempted company to be a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of Acquirer (“Merger Sub”) for the purpose of effectuating the Acquisition Merger. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Merger Agreement, (a) The Company will reincorporate by merging with and into the Acquirer, in which the Acquirer will be the surviving company and the Company will cease to exist, and (b) promptly after the Reincorporation Merger, the parties intend to effect a merger of Merger Sub with and into Medera, in which Medera will be the surviving entity (the “Acquisition Merger”, together with the Reincorporation Merger, the “Mergers” and together with the other transactions related thereto, the “Proposed Business Combination”).
At the effective time of the Acquisition Merger, each outstanding Medera Ordinary Share (excluding treasury shares and dissenting shares) will be cancelled and converted into the right to receive a number of Acquirer Ordinary Shares equal to the Exchange Ratio, as outlined in the Merger Agreement. The number of Acquirer Ordinary Shares to be delivered by Acquirer to shareholders of Medera at the Closing is based on a net value of $ 622,560,000 for 100 % of Medera’s issued and outstanding ordinary shares, with each Acquirer Ordinary Share valued at $ 10.00 .
On October 25, 2024, in connection with the stockholders vote at the Annual Meeting, 8,545,348 shares were redeemed by certain shareholders at a price of approximately $ 10.81 per share, including interest generated and extension payments deposited in the Trust Account, in an aggregate amount of $ 92,398,989 .
F- 9
On October 25, 2024, the Company entered into an amendment to the Investment Management Trust Agreement, with Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company (the “Trust Amendment”). Pursuant to the Trust Amendment, the Company has the right to extend the time for KVAC to complete its business combination (the “Business Combination Period”) under the Trust Agreement for a period of nine months from October 27, 2024 to July 27, 2025, by depositing into the Trust Account $ 200,000 for all remaining public shares (the “Extension Payment”) for each one-month extension.
The Company will have until July 27, 2025 (unless further extended) to consummate a Business Combination. However, if the Company anticipates that it may not be able to consummate a Business Combination within nine months (the “Combination Period”), the Company may extend the period of time to consummate a Business Combination up to four times, each by an additional one month each time (for a total of 24 months including Automatic Extension Period) by depositing into the Trust Account $ 200,000 (approximately $ 0.10 per share per each month extension) to complete a Business Combination (the “Paid Extension Period”). Any funds which may be provided to extend the time frame will be in the form of a loan to the Company from the Sponsor. The terms of any such loan have not been definitively negotiated, provided, however, any loan will be interest free and will be repayable only if the Company completes a Business Combination.
On July 22, 2025, the Company entered into an amendment to the Investment Management Trust Agreement, with Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company (the “Trust Amendment II”). Pursuant to the Trust Amendment II, the Company has the right to extend the time for KVAC to complete its business combination (the “Business Combination Period”) under the Trust Agreement II for a period of nine months from July 27, 2025 to January 27, 2026, by depositing into the Trust Account $ 0.03 for each remaining public shares (the “Extension Payment”) for each one-month extension.
On July 22, 2025, in connection with the stockholders vote at the Annual Meeting, 1,582,306 shares were redeemed by certain shareholders at a price of approximately $ 11.43 per share, including interest generated and extension payments deposited in the Trust Account, in an aggregate amount of $ 18,091,743 .
On January 22, 2026, the Company entered into an amendment to the Investment Management Trust Agreement, with Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company (the “Trust Amendment III”). Pursuant to the Trust Amendment III, the Company has the right to extend the time for KVAC to complete its business combination (the “Business Combination Period”) under the Trust Agreement III for a period of seven months from January 27, 2026 to July, 2026, by depositing into the Trust Account $ 120,000 for all remaining public shares (the “Extension Payment”) for each three-month extension.
As of the date of this report, the Company has extended sixteen times, and so it now has until April 27, 2026 to consummate a business combination. Pursuant to the terms of the current amended and restated memorandum and articles of association and the trust agreement between the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC, in order to extend the time available for the Company to consummate the initial business combination, the Company’s insiders or their affiliates or designees, must deposit into the Trust Account $ 200,000 on or prior to the date of the applicable deadline. On each of October 28, 2024, November 20, 2024, December 23, 2024, January 22, 2025, February 24, 2025, March 24, 2025, April 25, 2025, May 20, 2025 and June 23, 2025, respectively, the Company has deposited in an amount of $ 200,000 into the Trust Account in order to extend the amount of available time to complete a business combination until July 27, 2025. On each of July 23, 2025, August 18, 2025, September 19, 2025, October 21, 2025, November 18, 2025 and December 19, 2025, respectively, the Company has deposited in an amount of $ 144,670 into the Trust Account in order to extend the amount of available time to complete a business combination until January 27, 2026. On January 26, 2026, the Company has deposited in an amount of $ 120,000 into the Trust Account in order to extend the amount of available time to complete a business combination until April 27, 2026.
F- 10
Liquidation
If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the Company will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but no more than ten business days thereafter, redeem 100 % of the outstanding public shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned (net of taxes payable and less interest to pay dissolution expenses up to $ 50,000 ), divided by the number of then outstanding public shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public shareholders’ rights as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any), subject to applicable law, and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the remaining shareholders and the Company’s board of directors, proceed to commence a voluntary liquidation and thereby a formal dissolution of the Company, subject in each case to its obligations to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of applicable law. The underwriter has agreed to waive its rights to the deferred underwriting commission held in the Trust Account in the event the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period and, in such event, such amounts will be included with the funds held in the Trust Account that will be available to fund the redemption of the public shares. In the event of such distribution, it is possible that the per share value of the assets remaining available for distribution will be less than the Initial Public Offering price of $ 10.00 per Public Unit.
The Sponsor has agreed that it will be liable to the Company, if and to the extent any claims by a vendor for services rendered or products sold to the Company, or a prospective target business with which the Company has discussed entering into a transaction agreement, reduce the amounts in the Trust Account to below (i) $ 10.125 per share or (ii) 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 the trust assets, except as to any claims by a third party who executed a waiver of any and all rights to seek access to the Trust Account and except as to any claims under the Company’s indemnity of the underwriters of the Initial Public Offering against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). In the event that an executed waiver is deemed to be unenforceable against a third party, the Sponsor will not be responsible to the extent of any liability for such third-party claims. The Company will seek to reduce the possibility that the Sponsor will have to indemnify the Trust Account due to claims of creditors by endeavoring to have all vendors, service providers, prospective target businesses or other entities with which the Company does business, execute agreements with the Company waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to monies held in the Trust Account.
Liquidity and going concern
As of December 31, 2025, the Company reported a working capital deficit of $ 4,020,642 . The Company has incurred and expects to continue to incur significant costs in pursuit of its financing and acquisition plans. The Company initially had nine months from the consummation of the Initial Public Offering to consummate the initial Business Combination. If the Company does not complete a Business Combination within nine months from the consummation of the Initial Public Offering, the Company will trigger an automatic winding up, dissolution and liquidation pursuant to the terms of the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association. As a result, this has the same effect as if the Company had formally gone through a voluntary liquidation procedure under the Companies Act (As Revised) of the British Virgin Islands. Accordingly, no vote would be required from the shareholders to commence such a voluntary winding up, dissolution and liquidation. However, the Company may extend the period of time to consummate a Business Combination sixteen times (for a total of up to 33 months from the consummation of the Initial Public Offering to complete a Business Combination, including Automatic Extension Period). If the Company is unable to consummate the Company’s Initial Business Combination by April 27, 2026 (unless further extended), the Company will, as promptly as possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem 100 % of the Company’s outstanding public shares for a pro rata portion of the funds held in the Trust Account, including a pro rata portion of any interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not necessary to pay taxes, and then seek to liquidate and dissolve. However, the Company may not be able to distribute such amounts as a result of claims of creditors which may take priority over the claims of the Company’s public shareholders. In the event of dissolution and liquidation, the Company’s warrants will expire and will be worthless.
Additionally, the Company may not be able to obtain additional financing. If the Company is unable to raise additional capital, it may be required to take additional measures to conserve liquidity, which could include, but not necessarily be limited to, curtailing operations, suspending the pursuit of a potential transaction, and reducing overhead expenses. The Company cannot provide any assurance that new financing will be available to it on commercially acceptable terms, if at all. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern if a Business Combination is not consummated by April 27, 2026 (unless further extended). These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recovery of the recorded assets or the classification of the liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
● Basis of presentation
These accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).
● Principles of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and balances between the Company and its subsidiaries are eliminated upon consolidation.
A subsidiary is the entity in which the Company, directly or indirectly, controls more than one half of the voting power; or has the power to govern the financial and operating policies, to appoint or remove the majority of the members of the board of directors, or to cast a majority of votes at the meeting of directors.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect the activities of the Company and each of the following entities:
Name Background Ownership
KVAC (Cayman) Limited (“Acquirer”) A Cayman Islands company Incorporated on August 28, 2024 100 % owned by the Company
KVAC MS (Cayman) Limited A Cayman Islands company Incorporated on July 10, 2024 100 % owned by the Acquirer
● 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 shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.
Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of the Company’s consolidated 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.
F- 12
● Use of estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements.
Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the consolidated financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.
● Cash
The Company considers all short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. The Company did not have any cash equivalents as of December 31, 2025 and 2024.
● Cash and investment held in trust account
As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, substantially all of the assets held in the Trust Account were held in money market funds, which are invested primarily in U.S. Treasury securities. These securities are presented on the consolidated balance sheets at fair value at the end of each reporting period. Earnings on these securities are included in dividend income in the accompanying consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income and are automatically reinvested. The fair value for these securities is determined using quoted market prices in active markets. Unrealized gains and losses for available-for-sale securities are recorded in other comprehensive income and realized gains and losses are reported in other income.
● Warrant accounting
The Company accounts for warrants as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the warrant’s specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (“ASC 480”) and ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”). The assessment considers whether the warrants are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and whether the warrants meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the warrants are indexed to the Company’s own ordinary shares and whether the warrant holders could potentially require “net cash settlement” in a circumstance outside of the Company’s control, among other conditions for equity classification. This assessment, which requires the use of professional judgment, is conducted at the time of warrant issuance and as of each subsequent quarterly period end date while the warrants are outstanding.
For issued or modified warrants that meet all of the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded as a component of equity at the time of issuance. Warrants that meet the requirement for equity classification are recorded at their fair value at the time of issuance and are not revalued at each reporting date. For issued or modified warrants that do not meet all the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded as liabilities at their initial fair value on the date of issuance, and each balance sheet date thereafter. Changes in the estimated fair value of the warrants are recognized as a non-cash gain or loss on the consolidated statements of operations.
As the warrants issued upon the Initial Public Offering and private placements meet the criteria for equity classification under ASC 480, therefore, the warrants are classified as equity.
F- 13
● Ordinary shares subject to possible redemption
The Company accounts for its ordinary shares subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in ASC 480. Ordinary shares subject to mandatory redemption (if any) are classified as a liability instrument and are measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable ordinary shares (including ordinary shares that feature redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the Company’s control) are classified as temporary equity. At all other times, ordinary shares are classified as shareholders’ equity. The Company’s ordinary shares feature certain redemption rights that are subject to the occurrence of uncertain future events and considered to be outside of the Company’s control. Accordingly, as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, 4,822,346 and 14,950,000 ordinary shares subject to possible redemption, are presented as temporary equity, outside of the shareholders’ deficit section of the Company’s consolidated balance sheets, respectively.
● Fair value of financial instruments
ASC Topic 820 Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”) defines fair value, the methods used to measure fair value and the expanded disclosures about fair value measurements. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between the buyer and the seller at the measurement date. ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy for inputs, which represents the assumptions used by the buyer and seller in pricing the asset or liability. These inputs are further defined as observable and unobservable inputs. Observable inputs are those that buyer and seller would use in pricing the asset or liability based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s assumptions about the inputs that the buyer and seller would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances.
The fair value hierarchy is categorized into three levels based on the inputs as follows:
Level 1 — Valuations based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access. Valuation adjustments and block discounts are not being applied. Since valuations are based on quoted prices that are readily and regularly available in an active market, the valuation of these securities does not entail a significant degree of judgment.
Level 2 — Valuations based on (i) quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities, (ii) quoted prices in markets that are not active for identical or similar assets, (iii) inputs other than quoted prices for the assets or liabilities, or (iv) inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by the market through correlation or other means.
Level 3 — Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement.
In some circumstances, the inputs used to measure fair value might be categorized within different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In those instances, the fair value measurement is categorized in its entirety in the fair value hierarchy based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
The fair value of the Company’s certain assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the consolidated balance sheets. The fair values of cash and other current assets, accrued expenses, due to a related party are estimated to approximate the carrying values as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 due to the short maturities of such instruments.
The following table presents information about the Company’s assets and liabilities that were measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques the Company utilized to determine such fair value.

● Income taxes
Income taxes are determined in accordance with the provisions of ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”). Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the consolidated financial statements carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted income tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Any effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
ASC 740 prescribes a comprehensive model for how companies should recognize, measure, present, and disclose in their consolidated financial statements uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. Under ASC 740, tax positions must initially be recognized in the consolidated financial statements when it is more likely than not the position will be sustained upon examination by the tax authorities. The Company’s management determined that the British Virgin Islands and Cayman Islands are the Company’s major tax jurisdiction. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits, if any, as income tax expense. There were no unrecognized tax benefits and no amounts accrued for interest and penalties as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. 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 may be subject to potential examination by foreign taxing authorities in the area of income taxes. These potential examinations may include questioning the timing and amount of deductions, the nexus of income among various tax jurisdictions and compliance with foreign tax laws. The Company’s management does not expect that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits will materially change over the next twelve months. As such, the Company’s tax provision was zero for the years presented.
The Company is considered to be an exempted British Virgin Islands company with no connection to any other taxable jurisdiction and is presently not subject to income taxes or income tax filing requirements in the British Virgin Islands.
After the Initial Public Offering, the proceeds held in the Trust Account will be invested only in U.S. government treasury obligations with a maturity of 185 days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act which invest only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations. An investment in this offering may result in uncertain U.S. federal income tax consequences.
● Net income (loss) per share
The Company calculates net income (loss) per share in accordance with ASC Topic 260, Earnings per Share . In order to determine the net income (loss) attributable to both the redeemable shares and non-redeemable shares, the Company first considered the undistributed income (loss) allocable to both the redeemable ordinary shares and non-redeemable ordinary shares and the undistributed income (loss) is calculated using the total net income (loss) less any dividends paid. The Company then allocated the undistributed income (loss) ratably based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding between the redeemable and non-redeemable ordinary shares. Any remeasurement of the accretion to the redemption value of the ordinary shares subject to possible redemption was considered to be dividends paid to the public stockholders. Accretion associated with the redeemable shares of ordinary share is excluded from earnings per share as the redemption value approximates fair value. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company has not considered the effect of the warrants sold in the Initial Public Offering and private warrants to purchase an aggregate of 15,628,575 and 15,628,575 shares, respectively, in the calculation of diluted net income (loss) per share, since the exercise of the warrants is contingent upon the occurrence of future events and the inclusion of such warrants would be anti-dilutive and the Company did not have any other dilutive securities and other contracts that could, potentially, be exercised or converted into ordinary shares and then share in the earnings of the Company. As a result, the diluted income (loss) per share is the same as basic income (loss) per share for the periods presented.
F- 15
The net income (loss) per share presented in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income is based on the following:

● Related parties
Parties, which can be a corporation or individual, are considered to be related if either the Company or the other party have the ability, directly or indirectly, to control the other party or exercise significant influence over the other party in making financial and operational decisions. Companies are also considered to be related if they are subject to common control or significant influence.
● Concentration of credit risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist of a cash account in a financial institution. The Company has not experienced losses on this account and management believes the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such account.
● Recent issued accounting standards
Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 3 – INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING
Pursuant to the Initial Public Offering on July 27, 2023, the Company sold 14,950,000 Public Units, which includes 1,950,000 Public Units upon the full exercise by the underwriter of its over-allotment option, at a purchase price of $ 10.00 per Public Unit. Each Public Unit consists of one Public share and one Public Warrant to purchase one ordinary share at an exercise price of $ 11.50 per share (see Note 6).
All of the 14,950,000 public shares sold as part of the Public Units in the Initial Public Offering contain a redemption feature which allows for the redemption of such Public Shares if there is a shareholder vote or tender offer in connection with the Business Combination and in connection with certain amendments to the Company’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, or in connection with the Company’s liquidation. In accordance with the SEC and its staff’s guidance on redeemable equity instruments, which has been codified in ASC 480-10-S99, redemption provisions not solely within the control of the Company require ordinary shares subject to redemption to be classified outside of permanent equity.
The Company’s redeemable ordinary share is subject to SEC and its staff’s guidance on redeemable equity instruments, which has been codified in ASC 480-10-S99. If it is probable that the equity instrument will become redeemable, the Company has the option to either accrete changes in the redemption value over the period from the date of issuance (or from the date that it becomes probable that the instrument will become redeemable, if later) to the earliest redemption date of the instrument or to recognize changes in the redemption value immediately as they occur and adjust the carrying amount of the instrument to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. The Company has elected to recognize the changes immediately. The accretion or remeasurement is treated as a deemed dividend (i.e., a reduction to retained earnings, or in absence of retained earnings, additional paid-in capital).
NOTE 4 – PRIVATE PLACEMENT
Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering on July 27, 2023, the Company consummated a private placement of 678,575 Private Placement Units, at a price of $ 10.00 per Private Placement Unit. Each Private Placement Unit consists of one Private Placement share and one Private Warrant to purchase one ordinary share at an exercise price of $ 11.50 per whole share.
The Private Placement Units are identical to the Public Units sold in the Initial Public Offering except for certain registration rights and transfer restrictions.
NOTE 5 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Founder Shares
In September 2021, the Company issued an aggregate of 3,737,500 Founder Shares to the initial shareholders, including an aggregate of up to 487,500 shares subject to forfeiture by the Sponsor to the extent that the underwriters’ over-allotment option is not exercised in full or in part, so that the Sponsor will collectively own 20 % of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares after the Initial Public Offering (see Note 6) for an aggregate purchase price of $ 25,000 . As a result of the underwriters’ full exercise of their over-allotment option on July 27, 2023, no Founder Shares are currently subject to forfeiture (See Note 7).
Administrative Services Arrangement
An affiliate of the Sponsor agreed that, commencing from the date that the Company’s securities are first listed on NASDAQ through the earlier of the Company’s consummation of a Business Combination and its liquidation, to make available to the Company certain general and administrative services, including office space, administrative and support services, as the Company may require from time to time. The Company has agreed to pay the affiliate of the Sponsor $ 10,000 per month for these services commencing on the closing date of the Initial Public Offering for 15 months (or up to 21 months including Automatic Extension Period). As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the balance of unpaid services fee was $ 120,000 and $ 0 , respectively, and is presented in amount due to a related party in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company incurred $ 120,000 and $ 120,000 in fees for these services, respectively.
F- 17
Related Party Extensions Loan
The Company will have to consummate a Business Combination by April 27, 2026. However, if the Company anticipates that it may not be able to consummate a Business Combination within 21 months (including automatic extension period), the Company may extend the period of time to consummate a Business Combination up to four times, four times by an additional one month each time to complete a Business Combination. The Sponsor or its affiliates or designees will receive a non-interest bearing, unsecured promissory note equal to the amount of any such deposit that will not be repaid in the event that the Company are unable to close a Business Combination unless there are funds available outside the Trust Account to do so. Such notes would either be paid upon consummation of our initial Business Combination or at the lender’s discretion, converted upon consummation of our Business Combination into additional private units at a price of $ 10.00 per unit.
On each of October 28, 2024, November 20, 2024, December 23, 2024, January 22, 2025, February 24, 2025, March 24, 2025, April 25, 2025, May 20, 2025 and June 23, 2025, the Company issued an unsecured promissory note in an amount of $ 200,000 to the Sponsor, pursuant to which such amount has been deposited into the Trust Account in order to extend the amount of available time to complete a business combination until July 27, 2025. On each of July 23, 2025, August 18, 2025, September 19, 2025, October 21, 2025, November 18, 2025 and December 19, 2025, the Company has deposited in an amount of $ 144,670 into the Trust Account in order to extend the amount of available time to complete a business combination until January 27, 2026. On January 26, 2026, the Company has deposited in an amount of $ 120,000 into the Trust Account in order to extend the amount of available time to complete a business combination until April 27, 2026. The notes are non-interest bearing and are payable upon the closing of a business combination. In addition, the notes may be converted, at the lender’s discretion, into additional Private Units at a price of $ 10.00 per unit. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the note payable balance was $ 2,668,022 and $ 600,000 , respectively.
Advance from a Related Party
As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company had a temporary advance of $ 1,315,880 and $ 575,085 from the Sponsor, respectively. The balance is unsecured, interest-free and has no fixed terms of repayment.
NOTE 6 – SHAREHOLDERS’ DEFICIT
Ordinary Shares
The Company is authorized to issue 500,000,000 ordinary shares at par $ 0.0001 per share. Holders of the Company’s ordinary shares are entitled to one vote for each share.
As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, 4,416,075 and 4,416,075 Ordinary Shares were issued and outstanding excluding 4,822,346 and 6,404,652 Ordinary Shares subject to possible redemption, respectively, so that the initial shareholders will own 20 % of the issued and outstanding shares after the Initial Public Offering (excluding the sale of the Private Units and assuming the initial shareholders do not purchase any Units in the Initial Public Offering). As a result of the underwriters’ full exercise of their over-allotment option on July 27, 2023, no Founder Shares are currently subject to forfeiture (see Note 7).
Warrants
Each holder of a warrant shall be entitled to purchase one ordinary share at an exercise price of $ 11.50 . Public Warrants may only be exercised for a whole number of shares. No fractional shares will be issued upon exercise of the Public Warrants. The Public Warrants will become exercisable after the consummation of a Business Combination. No Public Warrants will be exercisable for cash unless the Company has an effective and current registration statement covering the ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the Public Warrants and a current prospectus relating to such ordinary shares. The Company has agreed that as soon as practicable after the closing of a Business Combination, the Company will use its best efforts to file, and within 90 days following a Business Combination to have declared effective, a registration statement covering the ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a registration statement covering the ordinary shares issuable upon the exercise of the Public Warrants is not effective within 90 days, the holders may, until such time as there is an effective registration statement and during any period when the Company shall have failed to maintain an effective registration statement, exercise the Public Warrants on a cashless basis pursuant to an available exemption from registration under the Securities Act. If an exemption from registration is not available, holders will not be able to exercise their Public Warrants on a cashless basis. The Public Warrants will expire five years from the consummation of a Business Combination or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.
F- 18
The Company may call the warrants for redemption, in whole and not in part, at a price of $ 0.01 per warrant:
● upon not less than 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption to each warrant holder,
● if, and only if, the reported last sale price of the ordinary share equals or exceeds $ 16.5 per share, for any 20 trading days within a 30 trading days period ending on the third trading day prior to the notice of redemption to Public Warrant holders, and
● if, and only if, there is a current registration statement in effect with respect to the issuance of the ordinary share 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.
If the Company calls the Public Warrants for redemption, management will have the option to require all holders that wish to exercise the Public Warrants to do so on a “cashless basis,” as described in the warrant agreement. The exercise price and number of ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances including in the event of a share dividend, extraordinary dividend or recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation. However, the warrants will not be adjusted for issuances of ordinary shares at a price below its exercise price. Additionally, in no event will the Company be required to net cash settle the warrants. If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period and the Company liquidates the funds held in the Trust Account, holders of warrants will not receive any of such funds with respect to their warrants, nor will they receive any distribution from the Company’s assets held outside of the Trust Account with respect to such warrants. Accordingly, the warrants may expire worthless.
In addition, if in connection with a Business Combination, the Company (a) issues additional Ordinary Shares or equity-linked securities at an issue price or effective issue price of less than $ 9.35 per share (with such issue price or effective issue price as determined by the Company’s Board of Directors, in good faith, and in the case of any such issuance to the Company’s initial stockholders, or their affiliates, without taking into account any Founders’ Shares held by them prior to such issuance), (b) the aggregate gross proceeds from such issuances represent more than 60 % of the total equity proceeds, and interest thereon, available for the funding of the Business Combination on the date of the consummation of such Business Combination (net of redemptions), and (c) the Fair Market Value (as defined below) is below $ 9.35 per share, the exercise price of the warrants will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 115 % of the greater of (a) the Fair Market Value or (b) the price at which the Company issues the ordinary shares or equity-linked securities, and the $ 16.50 per share redemption trigger price will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 165 % of the higher of the Fair Market Value and the price at which the Company issues ordinary shares or equity-linked securities. The “Fair Market Value” shall mean the volume weighted average reported trading price of the ordinary shares for the twenty ( 20 ) trading days starting on the trading day prior to the date of the consummation of the Business Combination.
The Private Warrants are identical to the Public Warrants underlying the Public Units being sold in the Initial Public Offering except that Private Placement Units will not be transferable, assignable or saleable until 30 days after the completion of the Company’s Business Combination and will be entitled to registration rights.
NOTE 7 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Risks and Uncertainties
Management continues to evaluate the impact of the Russia-Ukraine war and the conflict in Israel and Palestine on the industry and has concluded that while it is reasonably possible that these events could have a negative effect on the Company’s financial position, results of its operations and/or search for a target company, the specific impact is not readily determinable as of the date of these consolidated financial statements. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Registration Rights
Pursuant to a registration rights agreement entered into on July 24, 2023, the holders of the Founder Shares, Private Placement Units (including securities contained therein), and units (including securities contained therein) that may be issued on conversion of working capital loans or extension loans and 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 Company’s completion of initial business combination and rights to require the Company to register for resale such securities pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.
Underwriter Agreement
The underwriters are entitled to a cash underwriting discount of 2 % of the gross proceeds of the Initial Public Offering, or $ 2,990,000 , upon the closing of the Business Combination, which is shown as deferred underwriting expenses on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
F- 19
NOTE 8 – 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 (“CODM”), or group, in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance.
The Company’s CODM has been identified as the Chief Financial Officer , 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 several key metrics, which includes formation and operating costs and interest and dividend earned on investments held in Trust Account which are included in the accompanying statements of income.
The key measures of segment profit or loss reviewed by the CODM are earned on investments held in Trust Account and formation and operating costs. The CODM reviewed earned on 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. Formation and operating costs 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 formation and operating costs to manage, maintain and enforce all contractual agreements to ensure costs are aligned with all agreements and budget.
NOTE 9 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
