Cautionary Note Regarding
Forward-Looking Statements
All
statements other than statements of historical fact included in this Report including, without limitation, statements under this Item
regarding our financial position, possible Business Combinations and the financing thereof, and related matters, and the plans and objectives
of Management for future operations, are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section
21E of the Exchange Act. When used in this Report, words such as “may,” “should,” “could,” “would,”
“anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend” and similar expressions,
as they relate to us or our Management, identify forward-looking statements. We have based these forward-looking statements on our Management’s
current expectations and projections about future events, as well as assumptions made by, and information currently available to our
Management. Actual results could differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors
detailed in our filings with the SEC. All subsequent written or oral forward-looking statements attributable to us or persons acting
on our behalf are qualified in their entirety by this paragraph.
The
following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the financial
statements and the notes thereto included elsewhere in this Report.
Overview
We
are a blank check company incorporated in the Cayman Islands on August 6, 2024 for the purpose of effecting a Business Combination. Our
Sponsor is Oxley Bridge Holdings LLC.
Although
we are not limited in our search for target businesses to a particular industry or sector for the purpose of consummating the Business
Combination, we are focusing our search on a target with operations or prospects focusing on global consumer and technology sectors with
disruptive growth potential through the use of technology that can benefit from operations in Asia, excluding the People’s Republic
of China, Hong Kong and Macau. We are an early stage and emerging growth company and, as such, we are subject to all of the risks
associated with early stage and emerging growth companies. We expect to continue to incur significant costs in the pursuit of our acquisition
plans. There can be no assurance that our plans to complete a Business Combination will be successful.
Our IPO Registration Statement
became effective on June 24, 2025. On June 26, 2025, we consummated our Initial Public Offering of 25,300,000 Units, including 3,300,000
Option Units issued pursuant to the full exercise of the Over-Allotment Option. Each Unit consists of one Public Share and one-half of
one Public Warrant. The Units were sold at a price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds to us of $253,000,000.
Simultaneously
with the closing of the Initial Public Offering and pursuant to the Private Placement Warrants Purchase Agreements, we completed the sale
of an aggregate of 6,400,000 Private Placement Warrants to the Sponsor and Cantor in the Private Placement at a purchase price of $1.00
per Private Placement Warrant, generating gross proceeds to us of $6,400,000. Of those 6,400,000 Private Placement Warrants, the Sponsor
purchased 4,200,000 Private Placement Warrants and Cantor purchased 2,200,000 Private Placement Warrant. The Private Placement Warrants
are identical to the Public Warrants, except as otherwise disclosed in the IPO Registration Statement.
33
Following
the closing of the Initial Public Offering and Private Placement, an amount of $253,000,000 from the net proceeds of the Initial Public
Offering and the Private Placement was initially placed in the Trust Account located in the United States with Continental acting as trustee.
Pursuant to the Trust Agreement, the Trust Account may be invested only (i) in U.S. government securities, within the meaning set forth
in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act with a maturity of 185 days or less, (ii) in any open-ended investment company that
holds itself out as a money market fund selected by us meeting the conditions of paragraphs (d)(1), (d)(2), (d)(3) and (d)(4) of Rule
2a-7 of the Investment Company Act, (iii) as uninvested cash (iv) in interest or non-interest bearing demand deposit accounts at a U.S.
chartered commercial bank with consolidated assets of $100 billion or more selected by Continental that is reasonably satisfactory to
us, until the earlier of: (x) the completion of the Business Combination and (y) the distribution of the Trust Account, as described below.
We
have until June 26, 2027 (24 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering), or until such (x) earlier date as our Board may
approve or (y) later date as our shareholders may approve, pursuant to the Amended and Restated Articles, to consummate the Business Combination.
If we are unable to complete the Business Combination by the end of the Combination Period, we will (i) cease all operations except for
the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible, but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem the Public
Shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account including interest earned
on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to us to pay taxes, if any, 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 liquidating distributions, if any), subject to applicable law, and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption,
subject to the approval of our remaining shareholders and our Board, dissolve and liquidate, subject, in each case, to our obligations
under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law.
We
may seek to extend the Combination Period consistent with applicable laws, regulations and stock exchange rules by amending our
Amended and Restated Articles. Any such amendment would require the approval of our shareholders, and our Public Shareholders will
be provided the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares in connection with the vote on such approval. Such
redemptions will decrease the amount held in our Trust Account and our capitalization, and may affect our ability to maintain our
listing on Nasdaq. In addition, the Nasdaq Rules currently require SPACs (such as us) to complete their initial Business Combination
in accordance with the Nasdaq 36-Month Requirement. If we do not meet the Nasdaq 36-Month Requirement, our securities will likely be
subject to suspension of trading and delisting from Nasdaq. Our Sponsor may also, in its discretion, consider selling its interest
in our Company to another sponsor entity, which may result in a change to our Management Team.
Results of Operations
We
have neither engaged in any operations nor generated any revenues to date. Our only activities since August 6, 2024 (inception) through
December 31, 2025 have been (i) organizational activities and (ii) activities relating to (x) the Initial Public Offering and (y) identifying
and evaluating prospective acquisition candidates and activities in connection with the initial Business Combination. We will not generate
any operating revenues until after completion of our initial Business Combination. We have generated non-operating income in the form
of interest income on investments held in the Trust Account after the Initial Public Offering. We expect to incur increased expenses as
a result of being a public company (for legal, financial reporting, accounting and auditing compliance, among other things), as well as
for due diligence expenses.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Following the Initial Public
Offering, including the full exercise of the Over-Allotment Option, and the Private Placement, a total of $253,000,000 was placed in the
Trust Account. We incurred fees of $16,987,383 in the Initial Public Offering, consisting of $4,400,000 of cash underwriting fee, the
Deferred Fee of $12,045,000 and $542,383 of other offering costs.
As of December 31, 2025, we
had $978,307 of cash in our operating account and working capital of $949,300. As of December 31, 2024, we had no cash in our operating
account and a working capital deficit of $118,543.
For the year ended December
31, 2025, net cash used in operating activities was $448,134. Net income of $4,782,187 was adjusted by general and administrative expenses
paid by the Sponsor under the IPO Promissory Note of $41,811, $5,227,025 of income on investments in Trust Account, and $45,107 changes
in operating assets and liabilities. Net cash used in investing activities was $253,000,000 related to the funding of the Trust Account.
Net cash provided by financing activities was $254,426,441, related to $248,600,000 of net proceeds from the issuance of Ordinary Shares,
net of $4,400,000 of cash underwriting fee, and $6,400,000 of proceeds from the Private Placement, proceeds from the IPO Promissory Note
of $10, offset by $242,318 payment of the outstanding IPO Promissory Note balance at the date of the Initial Public Offering, and $331,251
payments of deferred offering costs.
As of December 31, 2025 and
December 31, 2024, we had marketable securities held in the Trust Account of $258,227,025 and $0, respectively (including approximately
$5,227,025 and $0, respectively, of dividend income on investments in Trust Account). We may withdraw interest from the Trust Account
to pay taxes, if any. We intend to use substantially all of the funds held in the Trust Account, including any amounts representing interest
earned on the Trust Account (which interest shall be net of taxes payable, if any, and exclude the Deferred Fee), to complete our Business
Combination. To the extent that our share capital or debt is used, in whole or in part, as consideration to complete our Business Combination,
the remaining proceeds held in the Trust Account will be used as working capital to finance the operations of the target business or businesses,
make other acquisitions and pursue our growth strategies.
To mitigate the risk that
we might be deemed to be an investment company for purposes of the Investment Company Act, which risk increases the longer that we hold
investments in the Trust Account, we may, at any time, (based on our Management Team’s ongoing assessment of all factors related
to our potential status under the Investment Company Act) instruct the trustee to liquidate the investments held in the Trust Account
and instead to hold the funds in the Trust Account in cash or in an interest-bearing demand deposit account at a bank.
As of December 31, 2025 and
December 31, 2024, we had cash equivalents held outside of the Trust Account of $978,307 and $0, respectively. We use the funds held outside
the Trust Account primarily to identify and evaluate target businesses, perform business due diligence on prospective target businesses,
travel to and from the offices, plants, or similar locations of prospective target businesses or their representatives or owners, review
corporate documents and material agreements of prospective target businesses, and structure, negotiate and complete a Business Combination.
Our liquidity needs through
December 31, 2025 have been satisfied through (i) a contribution of $25,000 from the Sponsor in exchange for the issuance of our Founder
Shares, (ii) a loan pursuant to the IPO Promissory Note, and (iii) the net proceeds from the consummation of the Initial Public Offering
and the Private Placement held outside the Trust Account.
IPO Promissory Note
Prior to the closing of our
Initial Public Offering, our Sponsor agreed to loan us an aggregate of up to $300,000 under the IPO Promissory Note to cover expenses
related to the Initial Public Offering. Such loans and advances were non-interest bearing and payable on the earlier of December 31, 2025
or the completion of our Initial Public Offering. As of June 26, 2025, we had borrowed $242,318 under the IPO Promissory Note. On June
26, 2025, we paid $267,627 to the Sponsor, resulting in an overpayment of $25,309 that is recorded as a related party receivable. On July
1, 2025, the Sponsor paid us $25,309. As a result, the related party receivable has been reduced to $0, and no amounts were outstanding
as of December 31, 2025. Borrowings under the IPO Promissory Note are no longer available.
35
Working Capital Loans
In order to fund working capital
deficiencies or finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor, or certain of our officers and directors
or their affiliates may, but are not obligated to, loan us Working Capital Loans, as may be required. If we complete a Business Combination,
we will repay such Working Capital Loans. In the event that a Business Combination does not close, we may use a portion of the working
capital held outside the Trust Account to repay such Working Capital Loans, but no proceeds from our Trust Account would be used for such
repayment. Up to $1,500,000 of such Working Capital Loans may be converted into warrants of the post-Business Combination entity at a
price of $1.00 per warrant. The warrants would be identical to the Private Placement Warrants. Other than as set forth above, the terms
of such Working Capital Loans, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such Working Capital Loans.
As of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we did not have any borrowings under any Working Capital Loans.
We do not believe we will
need to raise additional funds to meet the expenditures required for operating our business. However, if our estimate of the costs of
identifying a target business, undertaking in-depth due diligence and negotiating a Business Combination are less than the actual amount
necessary to do so, we may have insufficient funds available to operate our business prior to our Business Combination. Moreover, we may
need to obtain additional financing either to complete our Business Combination or because we become obligated to redeem a significant
number of our Public Shares upon consummation of our Business Combination, in which case we may issue additional securities or incur debt
in connection with such Business Combination.
Contractual Obligations
We
do not have any long-term debt, capital lease obligations, operating lease obligations or long-term liabilities, other than as follows:
Administrative Services
Agreement
Commencing on June 26, 2025,
and until the completion of our Business Combination or liquidation, we reimburse an affiliate of the Sponsor $12,500 per month for office
space, utilities, and secretarial and administrative support pursuant to the Administrative Services Agreement. As of ended December 31, 2025
and December 31, 2024, there was $12,083 and $0, respectively, due to related party pursuant to the Administrative Services Agreement.
We incurred $77,083 for the year ended December 31, 2025.
Underwriting Agreement
We granted the Underwriters
a 45-day option from the date of the Initial Public Offering to purchase up to an additional 3,300,000 Option Units to cover over-allotments,
if any. On June 26, 2025, the Underwriters fully exercised the Over-Allotment Option.
36
We paid an underwriting discount
of $4,400,000 (2.0% of the gross proceeds of the Units offered in the Initial Public Offering). Additionally, the Underwriters are entitled
to the Deferred Fee of 4.50% of the gross proceeds of the base Initial Public Offering held in the Trust Account and 6.50% of the gross
proceeds sold pursuant to the Over-Allotment Option, which equates to $12,045,000 in the aggregate following the full exercise of
the Over-Allotment Option and is payable to the Underwriters, upon the completion of the initial Business Combination subject to the terms
of the Underwriting Agreement.
Registration Rights
Agreement
The
holders of (i) the Founder Shares, (ii) the Private Placement Warrants and (iii) any private placement-equivalent warrants issued in connection
with the Working Capital Loans, if any (and in each case holders of their underlying securities, as applicable) are entitled to registration
rights pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, requiring us to register such securities for resale (in the case of the Founder
Shares, only after conversion to our Class A Ordinary Shares). The holders of the majority of these securities are entitled to make up
to three demands, excluding short form demands, that we register such securities. In addition, the holders have certain “piggyback”
registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to the consummation of a Business Combination and rights
to require us to register for resale such securities pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act. Cantor may only make a demand on one
occasion and only during the five-year period beginning on the effective date of the IPO Registration Statement. In addition, Cantor may
participate in a “piggyback” registration only during the seven-year period beginning on the effective date of the IPO Registration
Statement. We will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.
Letter Agreement
Our
Sponsor, directors and officers have entered into the Letter Agreement with us, pursuant to which, they have waived their rights to liquidating
distributions from the Trust Account with respect to any Founder Shares held by them if we fail to complete our initial Business Combination
within the Combination Period. However, if they acquire Public Shares in or after the Initial Public Offering, they will be entitled to
liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to such Public Shares if we fail to complete our initial Business Combination
within the Combination Period.
Additionally,
pursuant to the Letter Agreement, our Sponsor, directors and officers will not propose any amendment to our Amended and Restated Articles
to modify (i) the substance or timing of our obligation to allow redemption in connection with our initial Business Combination or to
redeem 100% of our Public Shares if we do not complete our initial Business Combination within the Combination Period or (ii) any other
material provisions relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-initial Business Combination activity, unless we provide our Public
Shareholders with the opportunity to redeem their Public Shares upon approval of any such amendment at a per-share price, payable in cash,
equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and
not previously released to us to pay our taxes, if any, divided by the number of then outstanding Public Shares.
Critical Accounting
Estimates
The
preparation of the financial statements and notes thereto included elsewhere in this Report in conformity with GAAP requires Management
to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expenses, and the disclosure
of contingent assets and liabilities, in our financial statements. These accounting estimates require the use of assumptions about matters,
some of which are highly uncertain at the time of estimation. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other
assumptions it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments, and we evaluate
these estimates on an ongoing basis. To the extent actual experience differs from the assumptions used, our financial statements and notes
thereto included elsewhere in this Report could be materially affected. We believe that the following accounting policies involve a higher
degree of judgment and complexity. We have identified the following critical accounting estimates:
37
Warrant Instruments
We
account for the Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants issued in connection with the Initial Public Offering and the Private Placement
in accordance with the guidance contained in FASB ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging”. Accordingly, we evaluated and
recorded the Warrant instruments under equity treatment at their assigned values. The fair value of Public Warrants was determined using
Black-Scholes Simulation Model. The Public Warrants have been classified within shareholders’ deficit and will not require remeasurement
after issuance. The key inputs used in the valuation of the Public Warrants are as follows:
June 26,
2025
Implied Class A Ordinary Share price
$ 9.83
Exercise price
$ 11.50
Simulation term (years)
7.00
Risk-free rate
4.00 %
Selected volatility
2.60 %
Calculated value per Warrant
$ 0.33
Market adjustment
29.05 %
Ordinary Shares Subject to Possible Redemption
We account for our Ordinary
Shares subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in FASB ASC Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.”
Ordinary Shares subject to mandatory redemption are classified as a liability instrument and 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 our control) are classified as temporary equity. At all other
times, Ordinary Shares are classified as shareholders’ equity. Our Ordinary Shares feature certain redemption rights that are considered
to be outside of our control and subject to occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, Ordinary Shares subject to possible redemption
are presented at redemption value as temporary equity, outside of the shareholders’ deficit section of our balance sheets .
Net Income (Loss) Per Ordinary Share
Net income (loss) per Ordinary
Shares is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of Ordinary Shares outstanding for the period. Subsequent
measurement of the redeemable Class A Ordinary Shares is excluded from income (loss) per Ordinary Shares as the redemption value approximates
fair value. We calculate our earnings per share to allocate net income pro rata to Class A Ordinary Shares and Class B Ordinary Shares.
This presentation contemplates a Business Combination as the most likely outcome, in which case, Ordinary Shares share pro rata in the
income of our Company.
Recent Accounting
Standards
In November 2023, the
FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) Topic 2023-07, “Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to
Reportable Segment Disclosures” (“ASU 2023-07”). The amendments in ASU 2023-07 require disclosures, on an annual and
interim basis, of significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”),
as well as the aggregate amount of other segment items included in the reported measure of segment profit or loss. ASU 2023-07 requires
that a public entity disclose the title and position of the CODM and an explanation of how the CODM uses the reported measure(s) of
segment profit or loss in assessing segment performance and deciding how to allocate resources. Public entities are required to provide
all annual disclosures currently required by FASB ASC Topic 280, “Segment Reporting” (“ASC 280”), in interim
periods, and entities with a single reportable segment are required to provide all the disclosures required by the amendments in ASU 2023-07
and existing segment disclosures in ASC 280. ASU 2023-07 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and
interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. We adopted ASU 2023-07 on
August 6, 2024 (inception).
Management does not believe
that there are any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards, which, if currently adopted, would have a material
effect on the financial statements and notes thereto included elsewhere in this Report.
