Controls
and Procedures.
Evaluation
of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Disclosure
controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in our Exchange Act reports is recorded,
processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is
accumulated and communicated to our Management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer or persons
performing similar functions, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
As
required by Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer carried out an evaluation
of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2025. Based upon their
evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined
in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) were not effective due to the material weakness of inadequate segregation of
duties within account processes due to limited personnel and insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting, IT, and financial
reporting and record keeping.
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
of 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.

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

Justice Thurgood Marshall on the U.S. Supreme Court (1984-85) and for Judge Harry T. Edwards on the U.S. Court of Appeals
for the D.C. Circuit (1983-84). We believe Ms. Seligman is well qualified to serve as a member of our Board due to her extensive
legal, board governance, and leadership experience.
Past
performance of our Management Team or their respective affiliates is not a guarantee either (i) of success with respect to any business
combination we may consummate or (ii) that we will be able to identify a suitable candidate for our initial business combination.
Our shareholders should not rely on the historical performance record of our Management Team or their affiliates as indicative of our
future performance. Our officers and directors may have conflicts of interest with other entities to which they owe fiduciary or contractual
obligations with respect to initial business combination opportunities.
Family
Relationships
No
family relationships exist between any of our directors, executive officers.
44
Involvement
in Certain Legal Proceedings
There
are no material proceedings to which any director or executive officer, or any associate of any such director or officer is a party adverse
to our Company, or has a material interest adverse to our Company.
Number
and Terms of Office of Officers and Directors
Our
Board consists of five (5) members and is divided into three classes with at least one class of directors being appointed in each year,
and with each class (except for those directors appointed prior to our first annual general meeting) serving a three-year term. Prior
to the closing of our initial business combination, only holders of our Class B Ordinary Shares will be entitled to vote on the appointment
and removal of directors or continuing the Company in a jurisdiction outside the Cayman Islands (including any Special Resolution required
to amend our constitutional documents or to adopt new constitutional documents, in each case, as a result of our approving a transfer
by way of continuation in a jurisdiction outside the Cayman Islands). Holders of our Public Shares will not be entitled to vote on such
matters during such time. These provisions of our Charter relating to these rights of holders of Class B Ordinary Shares may be amended
by a Special Resolution passed by the affirmative vote of the holders representing at least 90% of the issued Class B Ordinary Shares.
In accordance with Nasdaq corporate governance requirements, we are not required to hold an annual general meeting until one year after
our first fiscal year end following our listing on Nasdaq.
The term of office of the first class of directors,
which consists of Erica Dorfman, will expire at our first annual general meeting. The term of office of the second class of directors,
which consists of Peter Ondishin and Nicole Seligman, will expire at the second annual general meeting. The term of office of the third
class of directors, which consists of Dr. Justin Di Rezze and Alex Elias, will expire at the third annual general meeting.
Our
officers are appointed by the Board and serve at the discretion of the Board, rather than for specific terms of office. Our Board is
authorized to appoint officers as it deems appropriate pursuant to our Charter.
Committees
of the Board
Our
Board has two standing committees: the audit committee (the “ Audit Committee ”) and a compensation committee (the “ Compensation
Committee ”). Subject to phase-in rules, the Nasdaq Rules and Rule 10A-3 of the Exchange Act require that the Audit Committee
of a listed company be comprised solely of independent directors. Each committee operates under a charter that has been approved by our
Board and has the composition and responsibilities described below.
Audit
Committee
Our Board has established and will maintain an
Audit Committee of the Board. Erica Dorfman, Alex Elias and Nicole Seligman serve as the members of our Audit Committee. Under the Nasdaq
listing standards and applicable SEC rules, we are required to have three members of the Audit Committee, all of whom must be independent.
Erica Dorfman, Alex Elias and Nicole Seligman are each independent.
Erica
Dorfman serves as the chairman of the Audit Committee. Each member of the Audit Committee is financially literate and our Board has determined
that Erica Dorfman qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert” as defined in applicable SEC rules.
45
We
have adopted a charter of the Audit Committee, which details the principal functions of the Audit Committee, including:
● assisting
with Board oversight of (1) the integrity of our financial statements, (2) our compliance
with legal and regulatory requirements, (3) our independent registered public accounting
firm’s qualifications and independence, and (4) the performance of our internal audit
function and independent registered public accounting firm; the appointment, compensation,
retention, replacement, and oversight of the work of the independent registered public accounting
firm and any other independent registered public accounting firm engaged by us;
● pre-approving
all audit and non-audit services to be provided by the independent registered public accounting
firm or any other registered public accounting firm engaged by us, and establishing pre-approval
policies and procedures; reviewing and discussing with the independent registered public
accounting firm all relationships the independent registered public accounting firm have
with us in order to evaluate their continued independence;
● setting
clear policies for audit partner rotation in compliance with applicable laws and regulations;
obtaining and reviewing a report, at least annually, from the independent registered public
accounting firm describing (1) the independent registered public accounting firm’s
internal quality-control procedures and (2) any material issues raised by the most recent
internal quality-control review, or peer review, of the independent registered public accounting
firm, or by any inquiry or investigation by governmental or professional authorities, within
the preceding five years respecting one or more independent audits carried out by the firm
and any steps taken to deal with such issues;
● meeting
to review and discuss our annual audited financial statements and quarterly financial statements
with Management and the independent registered public accounting firm, including reviewing
our specific disclosures under “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations”; reviewing and approving any related party transaction
required to be disclosed pursuant to Item 404 of Regulation S-K promulgated by the SEC prior
to us entering into such transaction; and
● reviewing
with Management, the independent registered public accounting firm, and our legal advisors,
as appropriate, any legal, regulatory or compliance matters, including any correspondence
with regulators or government agencies and any employee complaints or published reports that
raise material issues regarding our financial statements or accounting policies and any significant
changes in accounting standards or rules promulgated by the Financial Accounting Standards
Board, the SEC or other regulatory authorities.
Compensation
Committee
Our Board has established a Compensation Committee
of our Board. The members of our Compensation Committee are Erica Dorfman and Alex Elias. Alex Elias serves as chair of the Compensation
Committee. Under the Nasdaq listing standards and applicable SEC rules, we are required to have a Compensation Committee of at least
two members, all of whom must be independent. Erica Dorfman and Alex Elias are each independent.
We
have adopted a charter of the Compensation Committee, which details the principal functions of the Compensation Committee, including:
reviewing
and approving on an annual basis the corporate goals and objectives relevant to our Chief Executive Officer’s compensation, evaluating
our Chief Executive Officer’s performance in light of such goals and objectives and determining and approving the remuneration
(if any) of our Chief Executive Officer based on such evaluation;
46
reviewing
and making recommendations to our Board with respect to the compensation, and any incentive compensation and equity based plans that
are subject to Board approval of all of our other officers;
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;
approving
all special perquisites, special cash payments and other special compensation and benefit arrangements for our executive officers and
employees;
producing
a report on executive compensation to be included in our annual proxy statement;
reviewing,
evaluating and recommending changes, if appropriate, to the remuneration for directors; and
The
charter also provides that the Compensation Committee may, in its sole discretion, retain or obtain the advice of a compensation consultant,
legal counsel or other adviser and is directly responsible for the appointment, compensation and oversight of the work of any such adviser.
However, before engaging or receiving advice from a compensation consultant, external legal counsel or any other adviser, the Compensation
Committee will consider the independence of each such adviser, including the factors required by Nasdaq and the SEC.
Director
Nominations
We
do not have a standing nominating committee though we would form a corporate governance and nominating committee as and when required
to do so by law or the Nasdaq Rules. In accordance with Rule 5605(e)(2) of the Nasdaq Rules, a majority of the independent directors
may recommend a director nominee for selection by our Board. Our Board believes that the independent directors can satisfactorily carry
out the responsibility of properly selecting or approving director nominees without the formation of a standing nominating committee.
The directors who participate in the consideration and recommendation of director nominees are Erica Dorfman, Alex Elias and Nicole Seligman.
In accordance with Rule 5605(e)(1)(A) of the Nasdaq Rules, all such directors are independent. As there is no standing nominating committee,
we do not have a nominating committee charter in place.
The
Board also consider director candidates recommended for nomination by our shareholders during such times as they are seeking proposed
nominees to stand for appointment at the next annual general meeting (or, if applicable, an extraordinary general meeting). Our shareholders
that wish to nominate a director for appointment to our Board should follow the procedures set forth in our Charter.
We
have not formally established any specific, minimum qualifications that must be met or skills that are necessary for directors to possess.
In general, in identifying and evaluating nominees for director, our Board considers educational background, diversity of professional
experience, knowledge of our business, integrity, professional reputation, independence, wisdom and the ability to represent the best
interests of our shareholders. Prior to our initial business combination, our Public Shareholders do not have the right to recommend
director candidates for nomination to our Board.
Compensation
Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation
None
of our executive officers currently serves, in the past year has served, as a member of the Compensation Committee of any entity that
has one or more executive officers serving on our Board.
Clawback
Policy
We
have adopted a compensation recovery policy that is compliant with Nasdaq listing rules as required by the Dodd-Frank Act.
47
Code
of Ethics
We
have adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, applicable to our directors, officers and employees (the “ Code of Ethics ”).
We filed a copy of our Code of Ethics as an exhibit to the Report. Investors are able to review this document by accessing our public
filings at the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov . In addition, a copy of the Code of Ethics and the charters of the committees
of our Board will be provided without charge upon request from us. If we make any amendments to our Code of Ethics other than technical,
administrative or other non-substantive amendments, or grant any waiver, including any implicit waiver, from a provision of the
Code of Ethics applicable to our principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller
or persons performing similar functions requiring disclosure under applicable SEC or Nasdaq rules, we will disclose the nature of such
amendment or waiver on our website. The information included on our website is not incorporated by reference into this Form S-1 or
in any other report or document we file with the SEC, and any references to our website are intended to be inactive textual references
only.
Trading
Policies
On
January 26, 2026, we adopted insider trading policies and procedures governing the purchase, sale, and/or other dispositions of our securities
by directors, officers and employees, which are reasonably designed to promote compliance with insider trading laws, rules and regulations,
and the applicable Nasdaq Rules (the “ Insider Trading Policy ”).
The
foregoing description of the Insider Trading Policy does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the terms and
conditions of the Insider Trading Policy, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 19 and is incorporated herein by reference.
Compensation
Recovery and Clawback Policy
Under
the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, in the event of misconduct that results in a financial restatement that would have reduced a previously paid
incentive amount, we can recoup those improper payments from our executive officers (the “ SEC Clawback Rule ”). The
SEC has also adopted the SEC Clawback Rule that directs national stock exchanges to require listed companies to implement policies intended
to recoup bonuses paid to executives if the Company is found to have misstated its financial results.
On
January 16, 2026, our Board approved the adoption of the Clawback Policy (the “ Clawback Policy ”), in order to comply
with the SEC Clawback Rule, and the Nasdaq Rules, as set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5608 (the “ Nasdaq Clawback Rules ”).
The
Clawback Policy provides for the mandatory recovery of erroneously awarded incentive-based compensation from our current and former executive
officers as defined in the SEC Clawback Rule (“ Covered Officers ”) in the event that we are required to prepare an
accounting restatement, in accordance with the Nasdaq Clawback Rules. The recovery of such compensation applies regardless of whether
a Covered Officer engaged in misconduct or otherwise caused or contributed to the requirement of an accounting restatement. Under the
Clawback Policy, our Board may recoup from the Covered Officers erroneously awarded incentive compensation received within a lookback
period of the three completed fiscal years preceding the date on which we are required to prepare an accounting restatement.
The
foregoing description of the Clawback Policy does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the terms and conditions
of the Clawback Policy, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 97 and is incorporated herein by reference.
48
Limitation
on Liability and Indemnification of Officers and Directors
Cayman
Islands law does not limit the extent to which a company’s memorandum and articles of association may provide for indemnification
of officers and directors, except to the extent any such provision may be held by the Cayman Islands courts to be contrary to public
policy, such as to provide indemnification against willful default, willful neglect, actual fraud or the consequences of committing a
crime. Our Charter will provide that our officers and directors will be indemnified by us to the fullest extent permitted by law, as
it now exists or may in the future be amended, including for any liability incurred in their capacities as such, except through their
own actual fraud, willful default or willful neglect. We expect to purchase a policy of directors’ and officers’ liability
insurance that insures our officers and directors against the cost of defense, settlement or payment of a judgment in some circumstances
and insures us against our obligations to indemnify our officers and directors.
Our
officers and directors have agreed, and any persons who may become officers or directors prior to the initial business combination will
agree, to waive any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies in the Trust Account, and to waive any right, title,
interest or claim of any kind they may have in the future as a result of, or arising out of, any services provided to us and will not
seek recourse against the Trust Account for any reason whatsoever. Accordingly, any indemnification provided will only be able to be
satisfied by us if (i) we have sufficient funds outside of the Trust Account or (ii) we consummate an initial business combination.
Our
indemnification obligations may discourage shareholders from bringing a lawsuit against our officers or directors for breach of their
fiduciary duty. These provisions also may have the effect of reducing the likelihood of derivative litigation against our officers and
directors, even though such an action, if successful, might otherwise benefit us and our shareholders. Furthermore, a shareholder’s
investment may be adversely affected to the extent we pay the costs of settlement and damage awards against our officers and directors
pursuant to these indemnification provisions.
We
believe that these provisions, the insurance and the indemnity agreements are necessary to attract and retain talented and experienced
officers and directors.
Insofar
as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling us
pursuant to the foregoing provisions, we have been informed that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy
as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.
Item
11. Executive
Compensation.
None
of our executive officers or directors have received any cash compensation for services rendered to us as of the date of this Report.
Our
Audit Committee reviews on a quarterly basis all payments that were made to our Sponsor, executive officers or directors, or our or their
affiliates. Any such payments prior to an initial business combination are made from funds held outside the Trust Account. Other than
quarterly Audit Committee review of such reimbursements, we do not have any additional controls in place governing our reimbursement
or payments to our directors and executive officers for their out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with our activities on our
behalf in connection with identifying and consummating an initial business combination.
49
We
are not prohibited from paying any fees (including advisory fees), reimbursements or cash payments to our Sponsor, officers or directors,
or our or their affiliates, for services rendered to us prior to or in connection with the completion of our initial business combination,
including the following payments, all of which, if made prior to the completion of our initial business combination, will be paid from
funds held outside the Trust Account:
● Repayment
of up to an aggregate of $300,000 in loans made to us by our Sponsor to cover offering-related
and organizational expenses;
● Reimbursement
for office space, utilities and secretarial and administrative support made available to
us by an affiliate of our Sponsor, in an amount equal to $25,000 per month;
● Payment
of consulting, success or finder fees to our Sponsor, officers or directors, advisors, or
our or their affiliates in connection with the consummation of our initial business combination;
● Payment
of consulting, success or finder fees to our independent directors or their respective affiliates
in connection with the consummation of our initial business combination;
● We
may engage our Sponsor or an affiliate of our Sponsor as an advisor or otherwise in connection
with our initial business combination and certain other transactions and pay such person
or entity a salary or fee in an amount that constitutes a market standard for comparable
transactions;
● Reimbursement
for any out-of-pocket expenses related to identifying, investigating, negotiating and completing
an initial business combination; and
● Repayment
of Working Capital Loans that may be made by our Sponsor or an affiliate of our Sponsor or
certain of our officers and directors to finance transaction costs in connection with an
intended initial business combination. Up to $1,500,000 of such Working Capital Loans may
be convertible into Warrants of the post-business combination entity at a price of $1.00
per Warrant at the option of the lender. Such Warrants would be identical to the Private
Placement Warrants. Except for the foregoing, 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.
In addition to the foregoing, our officers and directors received indirect interests in the Founder Shares held by the Sponsor as compensation
for their services as officers and directors of the Company. Our Chief Executive Officer, Dr. Di Rezze, purchased an indirect interest
in 3,883,345 Founder Shares through membership interests in our Sponsor, and our Chief Financial Officer, Peter Ondishin, purchased an
indirect interest in 186,398 Founder Shares through membership interests in our Sponsor. In addition, our independent directors exercised
their right to purchase an indirect interest in the Founder Shares through membership interests in our Sponsor. Nicole Seligman purchased
an indirect interest in 50,000 Founder Shares through membership interests in our Sponsor, Erica Dorfman purchased an indirect interest
in 50,000 Founder Shares through membership interests in our Sponsor, and Alex Elias purchased an indirect interest in 50,000 Founder
Shares through membership interests in our Sponsor. Additionally, certain third-party investors hold membership interests in our Sponsor.
After
the completion of our initial business combination, directors or members of our Management Team who remain with us may be paid consulting
or management fees from the combined company. All of these fees will be fully disclosed to shareholders, to the extent then known, in
the proxy solicitation materials or tender offer materials furnished to our shareholders in connection with a proposed business combination.
We have not established any limit on the amount of such fees that may be paid by the combined company to our directors or members of
our Management Team. It is unlikely the amount of such compensation will be known at the time of the proposed initial business combination,
because the directors of the post-business combination business will be responsible for determining executive officer and director compensation.
Any
compensation to be paid to our executive officers will be determined, or recommended to the Board for determination, either by the Compensation
Committee, which consists solely of independent directors, or by a majority of the independent directors on our Board.
50
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 officers and directors may negotiate employment
or consulting arrangements to remain with the post-business combination company after our 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.

Security
Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management and Related Stockholder Matters.
The following table sets forth information regarding
the beneficial ownership of our Ordinary Shares as of March 23, 2026 based on information obtained from the persons named below, with
respect to the beneficial ownership of Ordinary Shares, by:
● each
person known by us to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of our outstanding Ordinary
Shares;
● each
of our executive officers and directors; and
● all
our executive officers and directors as a group.
In the table below, percentage ownership is based
on 33,923,083 shares of our Ordinary Shares, consisting of (i) 25,300,000 Class A Ordinary Shares; (ii) 8,433,333 Class B Ordinary Shares;
and (iii) 189,750 Representative Shares issued and outstanding as of January 26, 2026. On all matters to be voted upon, except for (x)
the appointment and removal of directors of the Board and (y) continuing our Company in a jurisdiction outside the Cayman Islands, holders
of the Class A Ordinary Shares and Class B Ordinary Shares vote together as a single class, unless otherwise required by applicable law.
Only holders of Class B Ordinary Shares have the right to vote on the appointment and removal of directors prior to the completion of
our initial business combination and on a vote to continue our Company in a jurisdiction outside of the Cayman Islands. Currently, all
of the Class B Ordinary Shares are convertible into Class A Ordinary Shares on a one-for-one basis.
Unless otherwise indicated, we believe that all persons
named in the table have sole voting and investment power with respect to all of our Ordinary Shares beneficially owned by them. The following
table does not reflect record or beneficial ownership of the Private Placement Warrants as these Warrants are not exercisable within
60 days of the date of this Report.
On October 14, 2025, our Sponsor purchased, and the
Company issued to the Sponsor, 8,433,333 Class B Ordinary Shares for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000. The Sponsor purchased the
Founder Shares for $0.003 per share.
Prior to the initial investment in the Company
of $25,000 by the Sponsor, the Company had no assets, tangible or intangible. The purchase price of the Founder Shares was determined
by dividing the amount of cash contributed to the Company by the number of Founder Shares issued. The number of Founder Shares outstanding
was determined based on the expectation that the total size of the Initial Public Offering would be a maximum of 25,300,000 Units, and
therefore that such Founder Shares would represent approximately 24.9% of the outstanding shares after the Initial Public Offering. The
post-offering percentages in the following table assume that there are 33,923,083 Ordinary Shares issued and outstanding after the Initial
Public Offering.

otherwise noted, the principal business address of each of the following is c/o Praetorian
Acquisition Corp., 2 S Biscayne Blvd, PMB 1004 Suite #3200, Miami, FL 33131.
(2) Interests
shown consist solely of Founder Shares, classified as Class B Ordinary Shares. Such
shares will automatically convert into Class A Ordinary Shares concurrently with or

the option of the holder on a one-for-one basis, subject to adjustment.
(3) Praetorian Sponsor LLC, our Sponsor, is the record holder of such shares.

13. Certain
Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence.
On October 14, 2025,
our Sponsor purchased, and the Company issued to the Sponsor, 8,433,333 Class B Ordinary Shares for an aggregate purchase price
of $25,000. The Sponsor purchased the Founder Shares for $0.003 per share.
In connection with the Initial Public Offering, we
will issue to the Underwriters 165,000 Representative Shares. The holders of the Representative Shares have agreed (i) to waive
their conversion rights (or right to participate in any tender offer) with respect to such shares in connection with the completion of
our initial business combination, (ii) to waive their redemption rights with respect to such shares, and (iii) to waive their
rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to such shares if we fail to complete our initial business combination
within 24 months (or 27 months, as applicable) from the closing of the Initial Public Offering. Subsequently, on March 12,
2026, the Company issued an additional 24,750 Representative Shares to the Underwriters on the same terms and conditions as the Representative
Shares issued in connection with the Initial Public Offering.
The
number of Founder Shares outstanding was determined based on the expectation that the total size of the Initial Public Offering would
be a maximum of 22,000,000 Units, and therefore that such Founder Shares would represent approximately 24.9% of the outstanding
shares after the Initial Public Offering. Up to 1,100,000 of the Founder Shares will be surrendered for no consideration. If we increase
or decrease the size of the offering, we will effect a share capitalization or a share repurchase or redemption or other appropriate
mechanism, as applicable, with respect to our Class B Ordinary Shares immediately prior to the consummation of the Initial Public
Offering in such amount as to maintain the number of Founder Shares at approximately 24.9% of our issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares
upon the consummation of the Initial Public Offering.
Our
Sponsor committed, pursuant to written agreements, to purchase 4,670,000 Private Placement Warrants, each whole Warrant exercisable to
purchase one Class A Ordinary Share at $11.50 per share, at a price of $1.00 per Warrant, or $4,670,000, in a Private Placement
that will close simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering. The Private Placement Warrants will be identical to the
Warrants sold in the Initial Public Offering except that, so long as they are held by our Sponsor or its permitted transferees, the Private
Placement Warrants (including the component securities as well as any securities underlying those component securities) (i) may
not, subject to certain limited exceptions, be transferred, assigned or sold by the holders until 30 days after the completion of
our initial business combination, and (ii) will be entitled to registration rights.
Prior
to or in connection with the completion of our initial business combination, there may be payment by the Company to our Sponsor, officers
or directors or our or their affiliates, of a finder’s fee, advisory fee, consulting fee or success fee for any services they render
in order to effectuate the completion of our initial business, which, if made prior to the completion of our initial business combination,
will be paid from funds held outside the Trust Account.
53
We
will reimburse our Sponsor or an affiliate thereof in an amount equal to $25,000 per month for office space, utilities and secretarial
and administrative support made available to us. Upon completion of our initial business combination or our liquidation, we will cease
paying these monthly fees.
In
addition, in order to finance transaction costs in connection with an intended initial business combination, our Sponsor or an affiliate
of our Sponsor or certain of our officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan us funds as may be required on a non-interest basis.
If we complete an initial business combination, we would repay such loaned amounts. In the event that the initial business combination
does not close, we may use amounts held outside the Trust Account or funds released to us as permitted withdrawals to repay such loaned
amounts but no proceeds from our Trust Account would be used for such repayment. Up to $1,500,000 of such loans may be convertible into
Private Placement Warrants of the post business combination entity at a price of $1.00 per Warrant at the option of the applicable lender.
Such Warrants would be identical to the Private Placement Warrants. Except as set forth above, the terms of such loans, if any, have
not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such loans. Prior to the completion of our initial business combination,
we do not expect to seek loans from parties other than our Sponsor or an affiliate of our Sponsor as we do not believe third parties
will be willing to loan such funds and provide a waiver against any and all rights to seek access to funds in our Trust Account.
We
have until the date that is 24 months (or 27 months if we have executed a letter of intent for an initial business combination
within 24 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering) from the closing of the Initial Public Offering (as may be extended
by shareholder approval to amend our Charter to extend the date by which we must consummate our initial business combination) or until
such earlier liquidation date as our Board may approve, to consummate our initial business combination. If we anticipate that we may
be unable to consummate our initial business combination within such 24-month period (or 27-month period, as applicable), we
may seek shareholder approval to amend our Charter to extend the date by which we must consummate our initial business combination. There
are no limitations on the number of times we may seek shareholder approval for an extension or the length of time of any such extension.
However, if we seek shareholder approval for an extension, holders of Public Shares will be offered an opportunity to redeem their shares
at a per share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned
thereon and not previously released to us for permitted withdrawals, divided by the number of then issued and outstanding Public Shares,
subject to applicable law.
Any
of the foregoing payments to our Sponsor, repayments of loans from our Sponsor or repayments of Working Capital Loans prior to our initial
business combination will be made using funds held outside the Trust Account.
After
our initial business combination, members of our Management Team who remain with us may be paid consulting, management or other fees
from the combined company with any and all amounts being fully disclosed to our shareholders, to the extent then known, in the proxy
solicitation or tender offer materials, as applicable, furnished to our shareholders. It is unlikely the amount of such compensation
will be known at the time of distribution of such tender offer materials or at the time of a general meeting held to consider our initial
business combination, as applicable, as it will be up to the directors of the post-combination business to determine executive and
director compensation.
54
Registration
Rights Agreement
The
holders of the (i) Founder Shares, which were issued in a Private Placement prior to the closing of the Initial Public Offering,
(ii) Private Placement Warrants (including the component securities as well as any securities underlying those component securities),
which will be issued in a Private Placement simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering and (iii) Units (including
the component securities as well as any securities underlying those component securities) that may be issued upon conversion of Working
Capital Loans will have registration rights to require us to register a sale of any of our securities held by them and any other securities
of the Company acquired by them prior to the consummation of our initial business combination pursuant to a registration rights agreement
signed prior to the effective date of the Initial Public Offering.
Pursuant
to the registration rights agreement and assuming the $1,500,000 of Working Capital Loans are converted into Private Placement Warrants,
we will be obligated to register up to 14,933,333 Class A Ordinary Shares and 6,500,000 Warrants. The number of Class A
Ordinary Shares includes (i) 8,433,333 Class A Ordinary Shares to be issued upon conversion of the Founder Shares, (ii) 5,000,000
Class A Ordinary Shares upon exercise of the Private Placement Warrants, and (iii) up to 1,500,000 Class A Ordinary Shares
upon exercise of the working capital warrants. The number of Warrants includes up to 5,000,000 Private Placement Warrants and 1,500,000
Private Placement Warrants issued upon the conversion of Working Capital Loans.
The
holders 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 “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent
to our completion of our initial business combination.
Policy
for Approval of Related Party Transactions
The
Audit Committee of our Board will adopt a policy setting forth the policies and procedures for its review and approval or ratification
of “related party transactions.” A “related party transaction” is any consummated or proposed transaction or
series of transactions: (i) in which the Company was or is to be a participant; (ii) the amount of which exceeds (or is reasonably
expected to exceed) the lesser of $120,000 or 1% of the average of the Company’s total assets at year end for the prior two completed
fiscal years in the aggregate over the duration of the transaction (without regard to profit or loss); and (iii) in which a
“related party” had, has or will have a direct or indirect material interest. “Related parties” under this policy
will include: (i) our directors, nominees for director or officers or any person who has served in such roles since the beginning
of the most recent fiscal year, even if he or she does not currently serve in that role; (ii) any record or beneficial owner of
more than 5% of any class of our voting securities; (iii) any immediate family member of any of the foregoing if the foregoing person
is a natural person; and (iv) any other person who maybe a “related person” pursuant to Item 404 of Regulation S-K under
the Exchange Act. Pursuant to the policy, the Audit Committee will consider (i) the relevant facts and circumstances of each
related party transaction, including if the transaction is on terms comparable to those that could be obtained in arm’s-length dealings
with an unrelated third party, (ii) the extent of the related party’s interest in the transaction, (iii) whether the
transaction contravenes our Code of Ethics or other policies, (iv) whether the Audit Committee believes the relationship underlying
the transaction to be in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders and (v) if the related party is a director or an
immediate family member of a director, the effect that the transaction may have on a director’s status as an independent member
of the Board and on his or her eligibility to serve on the Board’s committees. Management will present to the Audit Committee each
proposed related party transaction, including all relevant facts and circumstances relating thereto. Under the policy, we may consummate
related party transactions only if our Audit Committee approves or ratifies the transaction in accordance with the guidelines set forth
in the policy. The policy will not permit any director or officer to participate in the discussion of, or decision concerning, a related
person transaction in which he or she is the related party.
55
We
are not prohibited from paying any fees (including advisory fees), reimbursements or cash payments to our Sponsor, officers or directors,
or our or their affiliates, for services rendered to us prior to or in connection with the completion of our initial business combination,
including the following payments, all of which, if made prior to the completion of our initial business combination, will be paid from
funds held outside the Trust Account:
● Repayment
of up to an aggregate of $300,000 in loans made to us by our Sponsor to cover offering-related and
organizational expenses;
● Reimbursement
for office space, utilities and secretarial and administrative support made available to
us by our Sponsor or an affiliate thereof, in an amount equal to $25,000 per month;
● Payment
of consulting, success or finder fees to our Sponsor, officers or directors, advisors, or
our or their affiliates in connection with the consummation of our initial business combination;
● We
may engage our Sponsor or an affiliate of our Sponsor as an advisor or otherwise in connection
with our initial business combination and certain other transactions and pay such person
or entity a salary or fee in an amount that constitutes a market standard for comparable
transactions;
● Reimbursement
for any out-of-pocket expenses related to identifying, investigating, negotiating and
completing an initial business combination; and
● Repayment
of loans which may be made by our Sponsor or an affiliate of our Sponsor or certain of our
officers and directors to finance transaction costs in connection with an intended initial
business combination. Up to $1,500,000 of such loans may be convertible into Private Placement
Warrants of the post-business combination entity at a price of $1.00 per Warrant at
the option of the applicable lender. Such Warrants would be identical to the Private Placement
Warrants. Except for the foregoing, the terms of such loans, if any, have not been determined
and no written agreements exist with respect to such loans.
Director
Independence
Nasdaq
rules require that a majority of our Board be independent within one year of our Initial Public Offering. An “independent director”
is defined generally as a person who, in the opinion of the Board, has no material relationship with the listed company (either directly
or as a partner, shareholder or officer of an organization that has a relationship with the Company). We have three “independent
directors” as defined in Nasdaq rules and applicable SEC rules prior to completion of the Initial Public Offering. Our Board expects
has determined that Erica Dorfman, Alex Elias and Nicole Seligman are “independent directors” as defined in Nasdaq listing
standards and applicable SEC rules. Our independent directors will have regularly scheduled meetings at which only independent directors
are present.

REPORT
OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Shareholder and the Board of Directors of
Praetorian Acquisition Corp.:
Opinion on the Financial Statement
We have audited the accompanying balance sheet
of Praetorian Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2025, and the related statements of operations, changes
in shareholder’s deficit and cash flows for the period from September 29, 2025 (inception) through December 31, 2025, and the related
notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, these financial statements presents fairly,
in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2025, and the results of its operations and its cash
flows for the period from September 29, 2025 (inception) through December 31, 2025, in conformity with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America.
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
audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (the “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 audit 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 audit, 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 audit included performing procedures to assess
the risks of material misstatement of these 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 these financial
statements. Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as
evaluating the overall presentation of these financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
/s/ WithumSmith+Brown, PC
We have served as the Company’s auditor since 2025.

TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER
31, 2025
Note 1
— Organization and Business Operations
Praetorian
Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) is a blank check company incorporated as a Cayman Islands exempted company on September 29,
2025. The Company was incorporated for the purpose of effecting a merger, amalgamation, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase,
reorganization or similar Business Combination with one or more businesses (the “Business Combination”). The Company has
not selected any specific Business Combination target and the Company has not, nor has anyone on its behalf, engaged in any substantive
discussions, directly or indirectly, with any Business Combination target with respect to an initial Business Combination with the Company.
As
of December 31, 2025, the Company had not commenced any operations. All activity for the period from September 29, 2025 (inception)
through December 31, 2025 relates to the Company’s formation and the initial public offering (the “Initial Public Offering”),
which is described below. The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of its initial Business Combination,
at the earliest. The Company will generate non-operating income in the form of interest income from the proceeds derived from the Initial
Public Offering. The Company has selected December 31 as its fiscal year end.
The
registration statement for the Company’s Initial Public Offering was declared effective on January 22, 2026. On January 26, 2026,
the Company consummated the Initial Public Offering of 22,000,000 units (the “Units” and, with respect to the Class A ordinary
shares included in the Units being offered, the “Public Shares”) at $ 10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $ 220,000,000 .
Each Unit consists of one Class A ordinary share and one-third of one redeemable warrant (each, a “Public Warrant”).
Simultaneously
with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the sale of 4,670,000 warrants (the “Private Placement
Warrants” and together with the Public Warrants, the “Warrants”) at a price of $ 1.00 per Private Placement Warrant,
in a private placement to the Company’s sponsor, Praetorian Sponsor LLC (the “Sponsor”), generating gross proceeds
of $ 4,670,000 . Each Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one Class A ordinary share at a price of $ 11.50 per share, subject to adjustment.
Transaction
costs amounted to $ 9,216,648 , consisting of $ 1,320,000 of cash underwriting fees, $ 6,600,000 of deferred underwriting fees, and $ 1,296,648
of other offering costs.
The
Company’s management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the Initial Public Offering
and the Private Placement Warrants, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be generally applied toward consummating
a Business Combination (less deferred underwriting commissions).
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 net
balance in the Trust Account (as defined below) (excluding taxes payable on the income earned on the Trust Account) at the time of the
signing an agreement to enter into a Business Combination. However, 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 of 1940,
as amended (the “Investment Company Act”). There is no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully effect
a Business Combination.

— Organization and Business Operations (cont.)
Following
the closing of the Initial Public Offering, on January 26, 2026, an amount of $ 220,000,000 ($ 10.00 per Unit) from the net proceeds of
the sale of the Units and the Private Placement Warrants was placed in the trust account (the “Trust Account”), located in
the United States, with Odyssey Transfer and Trust Company acting as trustee, and may only be invested 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; the holding of these assets in this form
is intended to be temporary and for the sole purpose of facilitating the intended Business Combination. To mitigate the risk that might
be deemed to be an investment company for purposes of the Investment Company Act, which risk increases the longer that the Company holds
investments in the Trust Account, the Company may, at any time (based on management team’s ongoing assessment of all factors related
to the 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. Except with respect
to interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account that may be released to the Company as permitted withdrawals of up to $ 300,000
from interest earned on the Trust Account for working capital purposes per year (plus the rollover of unused amounts from prior years)
(the “permitted withdrawals”), if any, the proceeds from the Initial Public Offering and the sale of the Private Placement
Warrants will not be released from the Trust Account until the earliest of (i) the completion of the Company’s initial
Business Combination, (ii) the redemption of the Company’s public shares if the Company is unable to complete the initial
Business Combination within 24 months (or 27 months if the Company has executed a letter of intent for an initial Business
Combination within 24 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering) from the closing of the Initial Public Offering (as
may be extended by shareholder approval to amend the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association to extend
the date by which the Company must consummate its initial Business Combination) or by such earlier liquidation date as the board of directors
may approve (the “Completion Window”), subject to applicable law, or (iii) the redemption of the Company’s public
shares properly submitted 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 allow redemption in connection with the
initial Business Combination or to redeem 100 % of the Company’s public shares if the Company has not consummated an initial Business
Combination within the Completion Window or (B) with respect to any other material provisions relating to shareholders’ rights
or pre-initial Business Combination activity. The proceeds deposited in the Trust Account could become subject to the claims of the Company’s
creditors, if any, which could have priority over the claims of the Company’s public shareholders.
The
Company will provide the Company’s public shareholders with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their public shares upon
the completion of the initial Business Combination either (i) in connection with a general meeting called to approve the initial
Business Combination or (ii) without a shareholder vote by means of a tender offer. The decision as to whether the Company will
seek shareholder approval of a proposed initial Business Combination or conduct a tender offer will be made by the Company, solely in
its discretion. The public shareholders will be entitled to redeem their shares at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate
amount then on deposit in the Trust Account calculated as of two business days prior to the consummation of the initial Business
Combination, including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company for permitted
withdrawals, divided by the number of then outstanding public shares, subject to the limitations. The amount in the Trust Account is
initially anticipated to be $ 10.00 per public share.
The
Class A ordinary shares subject to redemption were recorded at a redemption value and classified as temporary equity upon the completion
of the Initial Public Offering, in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification
(“ASC”) Topic 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.”
The
Company will have only the duration of the Completion Window to complete the initial Business Combination. However, if the Company is
unable to complete its initial Business Combination within the Completion Window, the Company will 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 the Company for permitted withdrawals and up to $ 100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses, divided by the number of
then outstanding public shares, which redemption will constitute full and complete payment for the public shares and completely extinguish
public shareholders’ rights as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidation or other distributions, if any),
subject to the Company’s obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and subject to the other requirements
of applicable law.
F- 7
Note 1
— Organization and Business Operations (cont.)
The
Sponsor, officers and directors have entered into a letter agreement with the Company, pursuant to which they have agreed to (i) waive
their redemption rights with respect to their founder shares and public shares in connection with the completion of the initial Business
Combination; (ii) waive their redemption rights with respect to their founder shares and public shares in connection with a shareholder
vote to approve an amendment to the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association; (iii) waive their
rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to their founder shares if the Company fails to complete the
initial Business Combination within the Completion Window, although they will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust
Account with respect to any public shares they hold if the Company fails to complete the initial Business Combination within the Completion
Window and to liquidating distributions from assets outside the Trust Account; and (iv) vote any founder shares held by them and
any public shares purchased during or after the Initial Public Offering (including in open market and privately negotiated transactions)
in favor of the initial Business Combination.
The
Sponsor has agreed that it will be liable to the Company if and to the extent any claims by a third party for services rendered or products
sold to the Company, or a prospective target business with which the Company has entered into a written letter of intent, confidentiality
or other similar agreement or Business Combination agreement, reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account to below the lesser of
(i) $ 10.00 per public share and (ii) the actual amount per public share held in the Trust Account as of the date of the liquidation
of the Trust Account, if less than $ 10.00 per share due to reductions in the value of the trust assets, less taxes payable, provided
that such liability will not apply to any claims by a third party or prospective target business who executed a waiver of any and all
rights to the monies held in the Trust Account (whether or not such waiver is enforceable) nor will it apply to any claims under the
Company’s indemnity of the underwriters of the Initial Public Offering against certain liabilities, including liabilities under
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). However, the Company has not asked the Sponsor to
reserve for such indemnification obligations, nor has the Company independently verified whether the Sponsor has sufficient funds to
satisfy its indemnity obligations and the Company believes that the Sponsor’s only assets are securities of the Company. Therefore,
the Company cannot assure that the Sponsor would be able to satisfy those obligations.
Note 2
— Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis
of Presentation
The
accompanying financial statements are presented in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America
(“US GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).
Liquidity
The
Company’s liquidity needs up to December 31, 2025 had been satisfied through the loan under an unsecured promissory note from the
Sponsor of up to $ 300,000 . On January 26, 2026, the Company repaid the total outstanding balance of the Promissory Note amounting to
$ 129,650 (see Note 5). As of December 31, 2025, the Company had no cash and a working capital deficit of $ 263,920 .
Subsequent to the balance sheet date covered by
this report, on January 26, 2026, the Company consummated the Initial Public Offering of 22,000,000 Units at $ 10.00 per Unit, generating
gross proceeds of $ 220,000,000 . Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the sale of 4,670,000
Private Placement Warrants at a price of $ 1.00 per Private Placement Warrant, in a private placement to the Sponsor, generating gross
proceeds of $ 4,670,000 . As a result of the Initial Public Offering, as of January 26, 2026, the Company had cash of $ 2,465,198 and working
capital of $ 2,294,798 .
In
order to fund working capital deficiencies or finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor or an
affiliate of the Sponsor, or certain of the Company’s officers and directors may, but is not obligated to, loan the Company funds
as may be required (the “Working Capital Loans”). If the Company completes a Business Combination, the Company would repay
such loaned amounts at that time. Up to $ 1,500,000 of such Working Capital Loans may be convertible into private placement warrants of
the post-Business Combination entity at a price of $ 1.00 per warrant at the option of the lender. The warrants would be identical to
the Private Placement Warrants. As of December 31, 2025, the Company had no borrowings under the Working Capital Loans.
In
connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with FASB ASC 205-40, “Presentation
of Financial Statements—Going Concern,” the Company does not believe it will need to raise additional funds in order to meet
the expenditures required for operating its business. However, if the 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, the Company may have
insufficient funds available to operate its business prior to the initial Business Combination. The Company has the Completion Window
to complete the initial Business Combination. Management has determined that the Company has sufficient funds to finance the working
capital needs of the Company within one year from the date of issuance of the financial statements.
F- 8
Note 2
— Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (cont.)
Emerging
Growth Company Status
The
Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart
Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”), and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various
reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited
to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure
obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding
a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and 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 financial statements with another
public company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition
period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.
Use
of Estimates
The
preparation of the financial statements in conformity with US 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 financial statements
and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period.
Making
estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of
a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the financial statements, which management considered in formulating
its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ
significantly from those estimates.
Cash
and Cash Equivalents
The
Company considers all short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.
The Company had no cash and cash equivalents as of December 31, 2025.
Concentration
of Credit Risk
Financial
instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of a cash account in a financial institution,
which, at times, may exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation coverage limit of $ 250,000 . Any loss incurred or a lack of access
to such funds could have a significant adverse impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.
F- 9
Note 2
— Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (cont.)
Deferred
Offering Costs
The
Company complies with the requirements of the FASB ASC 340-10-S99 and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 5A, “Expenses of Offering.”
Offering costs consist principally of professional and registration fees that are related to the Initial Public Offering. FASB ASC 470-20,
“Debt with Conversion and Other Options,” addresses the allocation of proceeds from the issuance of convertible debt into
its equity and debt components. The Company applies this guidance to allocate Initial Public Offering proceeds from the Units between
Class A ordinary shares and warrants, using the residual method by allocating Initial Public Offering proceeds first to assigned value
of the warrants and then to the Class A ordinary shares. On January 26, 2026, offering costs allocated to the Public Shares were charged
to temporary equity and offering costs allocated to the Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants were charged to shareholder’s
deficit as the Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants, after management’s evaluation, were accounted for under equity treatment.
Fair
Value of Financial Instruments
The
fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under FASB ASC 820, “Fair
Value Measurements and Disclosures,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the balance sheet, primarily due to their
short-term nature.
Net
Loss per Class B Ordinary Share
Net
loss per Class B ordinary share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of Class B ordinary shares outstanding
during the period, excluding Class B ordinary shares subject to forfeiture. Weighted average shares were reduced for the effect of an
aggregate of 1,100,000 Class B ordinary shares that were subject to forfeiture if the over-allotment option was not exercised by the
underwriters (see Note 5). For the period from September 29, 2025 (inception) through December 31, 2025, the Company did not have any
dilutive securities and other contracts that could, potentially, be exercised or converted into Class B ordinary shares and then share
in the earnings of the Company. As a result, diluted loss per Class B ordinary share is the same as basic loss per Class B ordinary share
for the period presented.
Income
Taxes
The
Company accounts for income taxes under ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes,” which requires an asset and liability approach
to financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed for differences between
the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities that will result in future taxable or deductible amounts, based on enacted
tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are
established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.
ASC
Topic 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement
of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more likely
than not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. The Company’s management determined that the Cayman Islands is
the Company’s major tax jurisdiction. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits
as income tax expense. As of December 31, 2025, there were no unrecognized tax benefits and no amounts accrued for interest and penalties.
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 is considered to be an exempted Cayman 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 Cayman Islands or the United States. As such, the Company’s
tax provision was zero for the period presented.
Derivative
Financial Instruments
The
Company evaluates its financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded
derivatives in accordance with ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging”. For derivative financial instruments that are
accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value on the grant date and is then re-valued
at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the statement of operations. The classification of derivative instruments,
including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is evaluated at the end of each reporting period.
Derivative liabilities are classified in the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not net cash settlement or conversion
of the instrument could be required within 12 months of the balance sheet date. The underwriters’ over-allotment option is
deemed to be a freestanding financial instrument indexed to the contingently redeemable shares and was accounted for as a liability on
January 26, 2026 pursuant to ASC 480 since the underwriters did not exercise their overallotment option at the closing of the Initial
Public Offering.
F- 10
Note 2
— Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (cont.)
Warrant
Instruments
The
Company accounted for the 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, the Company evaluated and classified
the warrant instruments under equity treatment at their assigned values. Such guidance provides that the warrants described above will
not be precluded from equity classification. Equity-classified contracts are initially measured at fair value (or allocated value). Subsequent
changes in fair value are not recognized as long as the contracts continue to be classified in equity in accordance with ASC 480 and
ASC 815.
Recent
Accounting Pronouncements
Management
does not believe that any recently issued, but not effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect
on the Company’s financial statements.
Note 3
— Initial Public Offering
In
the Initial Public Offering, on January 26, 2026, the Company sold 22,000,000 Units, at a price of $ 10.00 per Unit. Each Unit consists
of one Class A ordinary share, and one-third of one redeemable warrant. Each whole warrant entitles the holder to purchase one Class A
ordinary share at a price of $ 11.50 per share, subject to adjustment. Each warrant will become exercisable 30 days after the completion
of the initial Business Combination and will expire five years after the completion of the initial Business Combination, or earlier
upon redemption or liquidation.
Note 4
— Private Placement
Simultaneously
with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Sponsor purchased an aggregate of 4,670,000 Private Placement Warrants, at a price
of $ 1.00 per Private Placement Warrant, or $ 4,670,000 in the aggregate, in a private placement. Each whole warrant entitles the registered
holder to purchase one Class A ordinary share at a price of $ 11.50 per share, subject to adjustment.
The
Private Placement Warrants will be identical to the warrants underlying the Public Units sold in the Initial Public Offering
except that, so long as they are held by the Sponsor or its permitted transferees, the Private Placement Warrants (i) may not,
subject to certain limited exceptions, be transferred, assigned or sold by the holders until 30 days after the completion of the
initial Business Combination and (ii) will be entitled to registration rights.
The
Sponsor and the Company’s officers and directors have entered into a letter agreement with the Company, pursuant to which they
have agreed to (i) waive their redemption rights with respect to their founder shares and public shares in connection with the completion
of the initial Business Combination; (ii) waive their redemption rights with respect to their founder shares and public shares in
connection with a shareholder vote to approve an amendment to the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association
(A) to modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to allow redemption in connection with the initial Business
Combination or to redeem 100 % of the public shares if the Company has not consummated an initial Business Combination within the Completion
Window or (B) with respect to any other material provisions relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-initial Business Combination
activity; (iii) waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to their founder shares if the
Company fails to complete the initial Business Combination within the Completion Window, although they will be entitled to liquidating
distributions from the Trust Account with respect to any public shares they hold if the Company fails to complete the initial Business
Combination within the Completion Window and to liquidating distributions from assets outside the Trust Account; and (iv) vote any
founder shares held by them and any public shares purchased during or after the Initial Public Offering (including in open market and
privately negotiated transactions) in favor of the initial Business Combination.

Note 5
— Related Party Transactions
Founder
Shares
On
October 14, 2025, the Company issued an aggregate of 8,433,333 Class B ordinary shares, $ 0.0001 par value (the “Founder
Shares”), in exchange for a $ 25,000 payment (approximately $ 0.003 per share) from the Sponsor to cover certain expenses on behalf
of the Company. The Founder Shares include an aggregate of up to 1,100,000 shares, which remain subject to forfeiture depending on the
extent to which the underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised within the 45-day period following the closing of the Initial
Public Offering. On March 12, 2026, the Underwriters exercised the over-allotment option in full, and the closing of the issuance and sale of the additional
Units occurred on March 16, 2026 (see Note 9). As such, on March 16, 2026, the 1,100,000 Class B ordinary shares are no longer subject
to forfeiture.
On
January 20, 2026, the Sponsor granted membership interests equivalent to an aggregate of 250,000 Founder Shares to the Company’s
CFO and three independent directors in exchange for their services as CFO and directors of the Company, subject to forfeiture at the
discretion of the Sponsor. The membership interest assignment of the Founder Shares to the holders of such interests are in the scope
of FASB ASC Topic 718, “Compensation-Stock Compensation” (“ASC 718”). Under ASC 718, stock-based compensation
associated with equity classified awards is measured at fair value upon the assignment date. The total fair value of the 250,000 Founder
Shares represented by such membership interests assigned to the holders of such interests on January 20, 2026 was $ 862,500 or $ 3.45 per
share. The Company established the initial fair value of the Founder Shares on January 20, 2026, the date the assignment was granted,
using a calculation prepared by a third party valuation team which takes into consideration the implied Class A share price of $ 9.85
multiplied by the probability of De-SPAC and instrument-specific market adjustment of 35.0 %. The Founder Shares are classified as Level
3 at the measurement date due to the use of unobservable inputs, and other risk factors (see Note 9). The membership interests were assigned
subject to forfeiture at the discretion of the Sponsor. Stock-based compensation would be recognized when the forfeiture restriction
has been lifted, in an amount equal to the number of membership interest times the assignment date fair value per share (unless subsequently
modified) less the amount initially received for the assignment of the membership interests. As of December 31, 2025, no compensation
expense has been recognized.
The
Company’s Sponsor, officers and directors have agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of their founder shares and any Class A
ordinary shares issued upon conversion thereof until the earlier to occur of (i) six months after the completion of the initial
Business Combination or (ii) the date on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, share exchange or other similar transaction
after the initial Business Combination that results in all of the Company’s shareholders having the right to exchange their Class A
ordinary shares for cash, securities or other property. Any permitted transferees will be subject to the same restrictions and other
agreements of the Company’s initial shareholders with respect to any founder shares (the “Lock-up”). Notwithstanding
the foregoing, if (1) the closing price of the Class A ordinary shares equals or exceeds $ 12.00 per share (as adjusted for
share subdivisions, share capitalizations, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within
any 30 -trading day period commencing at least 30 days after the initial Business Combination or (2) if the Company consummates
a transaction after the initial Business Combination which results in the Company’s shareholders having the right to exchange their
shares for cash, securities or other property, the Founder Shares will be released from the Lock-up.
Promissory
Note — Related Party
The
Sponsor has agreed to loan the Company an aggregate of up to $ 300,000 to be used for a portion of the expenses of the Initial Public
Offering. The loan is non-interest bearing, unsecured and due at the earlier of January 31, 2026 or the closing date of the Initial
Public Offering. As of December 31, 2025, the Company had outstanding borrowings of $ 124,650 under the Promissory Note. On January 26,
2026, the Company repaid the total outstanding balance of the Promissory Note amounting to $ 129,650 (see Note 9). Borrowings under the
Promissory Note are no longer available.
Administrative
Services Agreement
The
Company entered into an agreement with the Sponsor, commencing on January 22, 2026 through the earlier of the Company’s consummation
of a Business Combination or its liquidation, to pay the Sponsor or its affiliate or designee a total of $ 25,000 per month for office
space, utilities, secretarial and administrative support services. As of December 31, 2025, no amounts were incurred under this agreement.
Working
Capital Loans
In
order to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor or certain of
the Company’s officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds as may be required. If the Company completes
a Business Combination, the Company would repay the Working Capital Loans. In the event that a Business Combination does not close, the
Company may use a portion of the working capital held outside the Trust Account to repay the Working Capital Loans but no proceeds from
the Trust Account would be used to repay the Working Capital Loans. Up to $ 1,500,000 of such Working Capital Loans may be convertible
into Private Placement Warrants of the post Business Combination entity at a price of $ 1.00 per warrant at the option of the lender.
As of December 31, 2025, no such Working Capital Loans were outstanding.
F- 12
Note 6
— Commitments and Contingencies
Risks
and Uncertainties
The
Company’s ability to complete an initial Business Combination may be adversely affected by various factors, many of which are beyond
the Company’s control. The Company’s ability to consummate an initial Business Combination could be impacted by, among other
things, changes in laws or regulations, downturns in the financial markets or in economic conditions, inflation, fluctuations in interest
rates, increases in tariffs, supply chain disruptions, declines in consumer confidence and spending, public health considerations, and
geopolitical instability, such as the military conflicts in Ukraine and the Middle East. The Company cannot at this time predict the
likelihood of one or more of the above events, their duration or magnitude or the extent to which they may negatively impact the Company’s
ability to complete an initial Business Combination.
Registration
Rights
The
holders of the Founder Shares, Private Placement Warrants and Private Placement Warrants that may be issued upon conversion
of the Working Capital Loans are entitled to registration rights to require the Company to register for resale of any of the Company’s
securities held by them and any other securities of the Company acquired by them prior to the consummation of the initial Business Combination
pursuant to a registration rights agreement signed on January 22, 2026. The holders of these securities are entitled to make up to three
demands, excluding short form demands, that the Company registers such securities. In addition, the holders have certain piggyback registration
rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to the completion of the initial Business Combination. The Company will
bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.
Underwriters’
Agreement
The
underwriters have a 45 -day option from the date of the Initial Public Offering to purchase up to an additional 3,300,000 Units to
cover over-allotments, if any. The underwriters did not exercise their overallotment option at the closing of the Initial Public Offering
on January 26, 2026, thus, the full over-allotment option remains open.
The
underwriters were entitled to a cash underwriting discount of 0.60 % of the gross proceeds of the Initial Public Offering, or $ 1,320,000
in the aggregate, which was paid upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering. The underwriters were also entitled to deferred commissions
of 3.00 % of the gross proceeds of the Initial Public Offering, or $ 6,600,000 in the aggregate (or an additional $ 990,000 if the underwriters’
over-allotment option is exercised in full), payable upon the consummation of the initial Business Combination, with such 3.00 % payable
to the underwriters in cash and due solely on amounts remaining in the Trust Account following shareholder redemptions.
The
underwriters will be entitled to an additional cash underwriting discount of 0.15 % of the gross proceeds of the Initial Public Offering
held in the Trust Account other than those sold pursuant to the underwriters’ over-allotment option and 0.75 % of the gross proceeds
sold pursuant to the underwriters’ over-allotment option, or up to $ 577,500 in the aggregate, depending on the extent to which
the underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised within the 45 -day period following the closing of the Initial Public Offering.

January 26, 2026, the Company issued to Clear Street LLC, the representative of the underwriters (“Clear Street”), 165,000
Class A ordinary shares (the “Representative Shares”, an additional 24,750 Representative Shares shall be issued if the underwriters’
over-allotment option is exercised in full) (see Note 9). Clear Street has agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any such shares without
the Company’s written consent until the completion of the initial Business Combination. In addition, Clear Street has agreed (i)
to waive its redemption rights with respect to such shares in connection with the completion of an initial Business Combination and (ii)
to waive its rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to such shares if the Company fails to complete
an initial Business Combination within the Completion Window.
The
Representative Shares issued to the underwriters are in the scope of FASB ASC 718. Under FASB ASC 718, stock-based compensation associated
with equity-classified awards is measured at fair value on the assignment date. Additionally, under Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 5A,
specific incremental costs directly attributable to a proposed or actual offering of equity securities may by deferred and charged against
the gross proceeds of the Initial Public Offering. The Company estimated the fair value of the Representative Shares to be $ 648,450 or
$ 3.93 per share. Accordingly, the fair value of $ 648,450 has been recorded as an offering cost which was closed to additional paid-in
capital at the closing of the Initial Public Offering. The Company established the initial fair value for the Representative Shares on
January 26, 2026, the date of the issuance, using Monte Carlo Simulation Model prepared by a third party valuation firm, which takes
into consideration the fair value of Class A ordinary share of $ 9.83 multiplied by the probability of De-SPAC and market adjustment of
40.00 %.

Note 7
— Shareholder’s Deficit
Preference
Shares — The Company is authorized to issue a total of 1,000,000 preference shares at par value of $ 0.0001 . At
December 31, 2025, there were no preference shares issued or outstanding.
Class A
Ordinary Shares — The Company is authorized to issue a total of 300,000,000 Class A ordinary shares at par
value of $ 0.0001 per share. As of December 31, 2025, there were no Class A ordinary shares issued or outstanding.
Class B
Ordinary Shares — The Company is authorized to issue a total of 30,000,000 Class B ordinary shares at par
value of $ 0.0001 per share. As of December 31, 2025, there were 8,433,333 Class B ordinary shares issued and outstanding, of which an
aggregate of up to 1,100,000 shares remain subject to forfeiture depending on the extent to which the underwriters’ over-allotment
option is exercised within the 45-day period following the closing of the Initial Public Offering.
The
Founder Shares will automatically convert into Class A ordinary shares concurrently with or immediately following the consummation
of the initial Business Combination or earlier at the option of the holder on a one-for-one basis, subject to adjustment for share subdivisions,
share capitalizations, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like, and subject to further adjustment as provided herein. In the
case that additional Class A ordinary shares, or any other equity-linked securities, are issued or deemed issued in excess of the
amounts sold in this offering and related to or in connection with the closing of the initial Business Combination, the ratio at which
Class B ordinary shares convert into Class A ordinary shares will be adjusted (unless the holders of a majority of the outstanding
Class B ordinary shares agree to waive such adjustment with respect to any such issuance or deemed issuance) so that the number
of Class A ordinary shares issuable upon conversion of all Class B ordinary shares will equal, in the aggregate, approximately
24.9 % of the sum of (i) the total number of all Class A ordinary shares outstanding upon the completion of this offering (including
any Class A ordinary shares issued pursuant to the underwriters’ over-allotment option), plus (ii) all Class A ordinary
shares and equity-linked securities issued or deemed issued, in connection with the closing of the initial Business Combination (excluding
any shares or equity-linked securities issued, or to be issued, to any seller in the initial Business Combination and any private placement-equivalent
warrants issued to the Sponsor or any of its affiliates or to officers or directors upon conversion of working capital loans) minus (iii) any
redemptions of Class A ordinary shares by public shareholders in connection with an initial Business Combination; provided that
such conversion of founder shares will never occur on a less than one-for-one basis.
Holders
of record of the Company’s Class A ordinary shares and Class B ordinary shares are entitled to one vote for each share
held on all matters to be voted on by shareholders. Unless specified in the amended and restated memorandum and articles of association
or as required by the Companies Act or stock exchange rules, an ordinary resolution under Cayman Islands law and the amended and restated
memorandum and articles of association, which requires the affirmative vote of at least a majority of the votes cast by such shareholders
as, being entitled to do so, vote in person or, where proxies are allowed, by proxy at the applicable general meeting of the Company
is generally required to approve any matter voted on by shareholders. Approval of certain actions requires a special resolution under
Cayman Islands law, which (except as specified below) requires the affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of the votes cast by such
shareholders as, being entitled to do so, vote in person or, where proxies are allowed, by proxy at the applicable general meeting, and
pursuant to the amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, such actions include amending the amended and restated memorandum
and articles of association and approving a statutory merger or consolidation with another company. There is no cumulative voting with
respect to the appointment of directors, meaning, following the initial Business Combination, the holders of more than 50% of the ordinary
shares voted for the appointment of directors can elect all of the directors. Prior to the consummation of the initial Business Combination,
only holders of the Class B ordinary shares will (i) have the right to vote on the appointment and removal of directors and
(ii) be entitled to vote on continuing the Company in a jurisdiction outside the Cayman Islands (including any special resolution
required to amend the constitutional documents or to adopt new constitutional documents, in each case, as a result of approving a transfer
by way of continuation in a jurisdiction outside the Cayman Islands). Holders of the Class A ordinary shares will not be entitled
to vote on these matters during such time. These provisions of the amended and restated memorandum and articles of association may only
be amended if approved by a special resolution passed by the affirmative vote of the holders representing at least 90 % of the issued
Class B ordinary shares.

Note 7
— Shareholder’s Deficit (cont.)
Warrants — As
of December 31, 2025, there were no Warrants outstanding. Each whole warrant entitles the holder to purchase one Class A ordinary
share at a price of $ 11.50 per share, subject to adjustment as discussed herein. The warrants cannot be exercised until 30 days
after the completion of the initial Business Combination, and will expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, five years
after the completion of the initial Business Combination or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.
The
Company will not be obligated to deliver any Class A ordinary shares pursuant to the exercise of a warrant and will have no obligation
to settle such warrant exercise unless a registration statement under the Securities Act with respect to the Class A ordinary shares
underlying the warrants is then effective and a prospectus relating thereto is current. No warrant will be exercisable and the Company
will not be obligated to issue a Class A ordinary share upon exercise of a warrant unless the Class A ordinary share issuable
upon such warrant exercise has been registered, qualified or deemed to be exempt under the securities laws of the state of residence
of the registered holder of the warrants. In the event that the conditions in the two immediately preceding sentences are not satisfied
with respect to a warrant, the holder of such warrant will not be entitled to exercise such warrant and such warrant may have no value
and expire worthless. In no event will the Company be required to net cash settle any warrant. In the event that a registration statement
is not effective for the exercised warrants, the purchaser of a unit containing such warrant will have paid the full purchase price for
the unit solely for the Class A ordinary share underlying such unit.
Under
the terms of the warrant agreement, the Company has agreed that, as soon as practicable, but in no event later than 20 business days,
after the closing of its Business Combination, it will use its commercially reasonable efforts to file with the SEC a post-effective
amendment to the registration statement for the Initial Public Offering or a new registration statement covering the registration under
the Securities Act of the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants and thereafter will use its commercially
reasonable efforts to cause the same to become effective within 60 business days following the Company’s initial Business
Combination and to maintain a current prospectus relating to the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants
until the expiration of the warrants in accordance with the provisions of the warrant agreement. If a registration statement covering
the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants is not effective by the sixtieth (60 th ) business day
after the closing of the initial Business Combination, warrant holders may, until such time as there is an effective registration statement
and during any period when the Company will have failed to maintain an effective registration statement, exercise warrants on a “cashless
basis” in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act or another exemption. Notwithstanding the above, if the
Class A ordinary shares are at the time of any exercise of a warrant not listed on a national securities exchange such that they
satisfy the definition of a “covered security” under Section 18(b)(1) of the Securities Act, the Company may, at
its option, require holders of public warrants who exercise their warrants to do so on a “cashless basis” in accordance with
Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act and, in the event the Company so elects, the Company will not be required to file or
maintain in effect a registration statement, and in the event the Company does not so elect, the Company will use its commercially reasonable
efforts to register or qualify the shares under applicable blue sky laws to the extent an exemption is not available.
If
the holders exercise their public warrants on a cashless basis, they would pay the warrant exercise price by surrendering the warrants
for that number of Class A ordinary shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the product of the number of Class A
ordinary shares underlying the warrants, multiplied by the excess of the “fair market value” of the Class A ordinary
shares over the exercise price of the warrants by (y) the fair market value. The “fair market value” is the average
reported closing price of the Class A ordinary shares for the 10 trading days ending on the third trading day
prior to the date on which the notice of exercise is received by the warrant agent or on which the notice of redemption is sent to the
holders of warrants, as applicable.
Redemption
of Warrants When the Price per Class A Ordinary Share Equals or Exceeds $ 18.00 : The Company may redeem
the outstanding warrants:
● in whole and not in part;
● at a price of $ 0.01 per warrant;
● upon a minimum of 30 days ’ prior written notice of redemption (the “ 30 -day redemption period”); and
● if, and only if, the closing price of the Class A ordinary shares equals or exceeds $ 18.00 per share (as adjusted for adjustments to the number of shares issuable upon exercise or the exercise price of a warrant) for any 20 trading days within a 30 -trading day period commencing at least 30 days after completion of the initial Business Combination and ending three business days before the Company sends the notice of redemption to the warrant holders.
F- 15
Note 7
— Shareholder’s Deficit (cont.)
Additionally, if the number of outstanding Class A ordinary
shares is increased by a share capitalization payable in Class A ordinary shares, or by a subdivision of ordinary shares or other
similar event, then, on the effective date of such share capitalization, subdivision or similar event, the number of Class A ordinary
shares issuable on exercise of each warrant will be increased in proportion to such increase in the outstanding ordinary shares. A rights
offering made to all or substantially all holders of ordinary shares entitling holders to purchase Class A ordinary shares at a
price less than the fair market value will be deemed a share capitalization of a number of Class A ordinary shares equal to the
product of (i) the number of Class A ordinary shares actually sold in such rights offering (or issuable under any other equity
securities sold in such rights offering that are convertible into or exercisable for Class A ordinary shares) and (ii) the
quotient of (x) the price per Class A ordinary share paid in such rights offering and (y) the fair market value. For these
purposes (i) if the rights offering is for securities convertible into or exercisable for Class A ordinary shares, in determining
the price payable for Class A ordinary shares, there will be taken into account any consideration received for such rights, as well
as any additional amount payable upon exercise or conversion and (ii) fair market value means the volume weighted average price
of Class A ordinary shares as reported during the ten (10) trading day period ending on the trading day prior
to the first date on which the Class A ordinary shares trade on the applicable exchange or in the applicable market, regular way,
without the right to receive such rights.
Note 8 — Segment
Information
FASB
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 assets, operating results, and financial metrics
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 reportable segment.
The
CODM assesses performance for the single segment and decides how to allocate resources based on net income or loss that also is reported
on the statement of operations as net income or loss. The measure of segment assets is reported on the balance sheet as total assets.
When evaluating the Company’s performance and making key decisions regarding resource allocation, the CODM reviews several key
metrics, which include the following:
December 31,
2025
Prepaid expenses
$ 25,000
Deferred offering costs
$ 239,716
For the
Period from
September 29,
2025
(Inception)
through
December 31,
2025
General and administrative costs
$ 49,204
The
CODM reviews the position of total assets available with the Company to assess if the Company has sufficient resources available to discharge
its liabilities. The CODM is provided with details of cash and liquid resources available with the Company. Additionally, the CODM regularly
reviews the status of deferred costs incurred to assess if these are in line with the planned use of proceeds raised from the Initial
Public Offering.
General
and administrative costs are reviewed and monitored by the CODM to manage and forecast cash to ensure enough capital is available to
complete a Business Combination or similar transaction within the Completion Window. The CODM also reviews general and administrative
costs to manage, maintain and enforce all contractual agreements to ensure costs are aligned with all agreements and budget. General
and administrative costs, as reported on the statement of operations, are the significant segment expenses provided to the CODM on a
regular basis.
F- 16
Note 9
— Subsequent Events
The
Company evaluated subsequent events and transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date up to the date that the financial statements
were issued. Based upon this review, other than as described below, the Company did not identify any subsequent events that would have
required adjustment or disclosure in the financial statements.
On
January 20, 2026, the Sponsor granted membership interests equivalent to an aggregate of 250,000 Founder Shares to the Company’s
CFO and three independent directors in exchange for their services as CFO and directors of the Company, subject to forfeiture at the
discretion of the Sponsor. The membership interest assignment of the Founder Shares to the holders of such interests are in the scope
of FASB ASC Topic 718, “Compensation-Stock Compensation” (“ASC 718”). Under ASC 718, stock-based compensation
associated with equity classified awards is measured at fair value upon the assignment date. The total fair value of the 250,000 Founder
Shares represented by such membership interests assigned to the holders of such interests on January 20, 2026 was $ 862,500 or $ 3.45 per
share. The Company established the initial fair value of the Founder Shares on January 20, 2026, the date the assignment was granted,
using a calculation prepared by a third party valuation team which takes into consideration the implied Class A share price of $ 9.85
multiplied by the probability of De-SPAC and instrument-specific market adjustment of 35.0 %. The Founder Shares are classified as Level
3 at the measurement date due to the use of unobservable inputs, and other risk factors.
On January 26, 2026, the Company consummated the
Initial Public Offering of 22,000,000 Units at $ 10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $ 220,000,000 . Simultaneously with the closing
of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the sale of 4,670,000 Private Placement Warrants at a price of $ 1.00 per Private
Placement Warrant, in a private placement to the Sponsor, generating gross proceeds of $ 4,670,000 .
On
January 26, 2026 the Company issued 165,000 Representative Shares to Clear Street , as part of representative compensation.
On
January 26, 2026, in connection with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the underwriters were entitled to a cash underwriting
discount of 0.60 % of the gross proceeds of the Initial Public Offering, or $ 1,320,000 in the aggregate, which was paid upon the closing
of the Initial Public Offering. The underwriters were also entitled to deferred commissions of 3.00 % of the gross proceeds of the Initial
Public Offering, or $ 6,600,000 in the aggregate (or an additional $ 990,000 if the underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised
in full), payable upon the consummation of the initial Business Combination, with such 3.00 % payable to the underwriters in cash and
due solely on amounts remaining in the Trust Account following shareholder redemptions. The underwriters will be entitled to an additional
cash underwriting discount of 0.15 % of the gross proceeds of the Initial Public Offering held in the Trust Account other than those sold
pursuant to the underwriters’ over-allotment option and 0.75 % of the gross proceeds sold pursuant to the underwriters’ over-allotment
option, or up to $ 577,500 in the aggregate, depending on the extent to which the underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised
within the 45 -day period following the closing of the Initial Public Offering.
On
January 26, 2026, the Company repaid the total outstanding balance of the Promissory Note amounting to $ 129,650 .
On March 12, 2026, the Underwriters exercised the over-allotment option in full, and the closing of the issuance and sale of the additional
Units (the “Over-Allotment Option Units”) occurred on March 16, 2026. The total aggregate issuance by the Company of 3,300,000
Units at a price of $ 10.00 per Unit resulted in total gross proceeds of $ 33,000,000 . On March 16, 2026, simultaneously with the sale of
the Over-Allotment Option Units, the Company consummated the private sale of an additional 330,000 Private Placement Warrants, generating
gross proceeds of $ 330,000 (the “OA Private Placement,” together with the Initial Public Offering Private Placement, the “Private
Placements”). The Private Placement Warrants were issued pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended,
as the transaction did not involve a public offering. A total of $ 253,000,000 of the net proceeds from the sale of the Units in the Initial
Public Offering (including the Over-Allotment Option Units) and the Private Placements were deposited in the Company’s Trust Account
established for the benefit of the Company’s public stockholders.
