FOR REGISTRANT’S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES
Our
units began to trade on The Nasdaq Global Market, or Nasdaq, under the symbol “QETA” on October 6, 2023. The common stock
and rights comprising the units began separate trading on Nasdaq on November 30, 2023, under the symbols “QETA” and “QETAR”,
respectively.
Holders
of Record
As
of April 20, 2026, there were 3,747,748 shares of our shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding held by six stockholders of record. The number
of record holders was determined from the records of our transfer agent and does not include beneficial owners of shares of Common Stock
whose shares are held in the names of various security brokers, dealers, and registered clearing agencies.
Dividends
We
have not paid any cash dividends on our Common Stock to date and do not intend to pay cash dividends prior to the completion of an initial
business combination. The payment of cash dividends in the future will be dependent upon our revenues and earnings, if any, capital requirements
and general financial condition subsequent to completion of a business combination. The payment of any dividends subsequent to a business
combination will be within the discretion of our board of directors at such time. It is the present intention of our board of directors
to retain all earnings, if any, for use in our business operations and, accordingly, our board of directors does not anticipate declaring
any dividends in the foreseeable future. In addition, our board of directors is not currently contemplating and does not anticipate declaring
any share dividends in the foreseeable future. Further, if we incur any indebtedness, our ability to declare dividends may be limited
by restrictive covenants we may agree to in connection therewith.

Recent
Sales of Unregistered Securities
Simultaneously
with the closing of the IPO on October 11, 2023, the Company consummated the private placement (“Private Placement”) with
the Sponsor of 253,045 units (the “Private Units”), generating total proceeds of $2,530,450.
The
Private Units are identical to the Units sold as part of the public Units in this offering. Additionally, such initial purchasers agreed
not to transfer, assign or sell any of the Private Units or underlying securities (except in limited circumstances, as described in the
Registration Statement) until the completion of the Company’s initial business combination. Such initial purchasers were granted
certain demand and piggyback registration rights in connection with the purchase of the Private Units.
The
Private Units were issued pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, as the transactions did not involve
a public offering.

Use
of Proceeds
On
October 11, 2023, the Company consummated its initial public offering of 6,900,000 units (the “Units”), which includes full
exercise of the underwriter’s over-allotment option. Each Unit consists of one common stock of the Company, par value $0.0001 per
share (the “Common Stock”) and one-tenth (1/10) of one right (“Right”) to receive one share of common stock upon
the consummation of an initial business combination. The Units were sold at a price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds to
the Company of $69,000,000. Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, the Company consummated a private placement (the “Private
Placement”) in which Yocto Investments LLC (the “Sponsor”), purchased 253,045 private units (the “Private Placement
Units”) at a price of $10.00 per Private Unit, generating total proceeds of $2,530,450. The Private Units were issued pursuant
to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, as the transactions did not involve a public offering. The Private Units
are identical to the Public Units sold in the Initial Public Offering.
A
total of $69,690,000 of the proceeds from the IPO and the sale of the Private Placement Units were placed in a trust account established
for the benefit of the Company’s public shareholders. We paid a total of $1,380,000 underwriting discounts and commissions and
$407,729 for other offering costs and expenses (which excludes $690,000 of representative shares at fair value) related to the Initial
Public Offering. In addition, the underwriters agreed to defer $2,415,000 in underwriting discounts and commissions. The underwriters
reimbursed $690,000 to us for the IPO related expenses.
For
a description of the use of the proceeds generated in our initial public offering, see below Part II, Item 7 - Management’s Discussion
and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of this Form 10-K.
On
February 14, 2025, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among QETA, Quad Global
Inc., a Cayman Islands exempted company and a wholly-owned subsidiary of QETA (“Purchaser”), Quad Group Inc., a Cayman Islands
exempted company and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Purchaser (“Merger Sub,” together with QETA, Purchaser, the “Purchaser
Parties”), KM QUAD, a Cayman Islands exempted company (“QUAD”), certain shareholders of QUAD (“Principal Shareholders”),
and Mr. Junan Ke, as representative of the Principal Shareholders of QUAD. The Merger Agreement contemplated, among other things, (i)
the merger of QETA with and into Purchaser, with Purchaser surviving as the post-closing public company, and (ii) the merger of Merger
Sub with and into QUAD, with QUAD becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of Purchaser. The aggregate consideration payable to QUAD shareholders
was $300 million, payable in newly issued Purchaser Ordinary Shares valued at $10.00 per share. The Merger Agreement also provided for
certain post-closing governance arrangements, including the composition of the post-closing board of directors, and contained customary
representations, warranties and covenants of the parties.
As
of December 31, 2025, the KM QUAD Business Combination had not been consummated. Subsequent to December 31, 2025, on January 15, 2026,
the parties entered into a Termination Agreement pursuant to which the Merger Agreement was terminated by mutual consent. On March 6,
2026, Quetta, SMART KREATE GROUP LIMITED, an exempted company limited by shares incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands (“PubCo”),
SKG Merger Sub 1 Limited, an exempted company limited by shares incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands and a wholly owned
subsidiary of PubCo (“Merger Sub 1”), SKG Merger Sub 2 Limited, a business company with limited liability incorporated under
the laws of the British Virgin Islands and a wholly owned subsidiary of PubCo (“Merger Sub 2”), and Smart Kreate Group Limited,
a business company with limited liability incorporated under the laws of the British Virgin Islands (“SKG”), entered into
a Business Combination Agreement (the “BCA”). Pursuant to the BCA, the parties will consummate a business combination transaction
(the “Business Combination”) through the following transactions: (i) Quetta will merge with and into Merger Sub 1 (the “Initial
Merger”), with Merger Sub 1 surviving the Initial Merger and becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of PubCo; and (ii) immediately
following the Initial Merger, Merger Sub 2 will merge with and into SKG (the “Acquisition Merger”), with SKG surviving the
Acquisition Merger and becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of PubCo. The transaction values merger at an enterprise value of US$200 million.
Subject to, and in accordance with, the terms and conditions of the BCA, in connection with the Initial Merger, (i) every issued and
outstanding share of common stock of QETA will automatically be cancelled in exchange for one PubCo Class A ordinary share and (ii) each
issued and outstanding right of QETA will cease to exist and be assumed by PubCo and converted automatically into a right to purchase
one PubCo Class A ordinary share on substantially the same terms.
