Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Disclosure controls and procedures
are designed with the objective of ensuring that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act, such
as this Report, is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.
Disclosure controls and procedures are also designed with the objective of ensuring that such information is accumulated and communicated
to our Management, including our Certifying Officers, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Under the
supervision and with the participation of our Management, including our Certifying Officers, we carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness
of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act.
Based on the foregoing, our Certifying Officers concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of December 31,
2025.
36
We
do not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all errors and all instances of fraud. Disclosure controls and
procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the
disclosure controls and procedures are met. Further, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there
are resource constraints, and the benefits must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all disclosure
controls and procedures, no evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures can provide absolute assurance that we have detected all
our control deficiencies and instances of fraud, if any. The design of disclosure controls and procedures also is based partly on certain
assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated
goals under all potential future conditions.
Management’s Annual Report on Internal
Control over Financial Reporting
This Report does not include a report of Management’s assessment regarding internal control over financial

Reporting

Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings
There are no material proceedings
to which any director or executive officer has been involved in the last ten years that are material to an evaluation of the ability or
integrity of any director or officer.
39
Number and Terms of Office of Officers and
Directors
Our Board of Directors consists of four (4) members and is divided into
three classes with only 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 are entitled to vote on (i) the appointment and removal of directors or (ii) continuing our 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). Our Public Shareholders are not entitled to vote on such matters during such time. These provisions of our Amended and
Restated Articles relating to these rights of holders of Class B Ordinary Shares may be amended by a Special Resolution passed by the
affirmative vote of at least 90% (or, where such amendment is proposed in respect of the consummation of our initial Business Combination,
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 of our shareholders, voting together as a single class. The term of office of the first class of directors,
consisting of Mr. Cohen will expire at our first annual general meeting. The term of office of the second class of directors, consisting
of Mr. Farbman and Ms. Regev will expire at the second annual general meeting. The term of office of the third class of directors, consisting
of Mr. Shalom, will expire at the third annual general meeting. 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.
Our
officers are appointed by the Board of Directors and serve at the discretion of the Board of Directors, rather than for specific terms
of office. Our Board of Directors is authorized to appoint officers as it deems appropriate pursuant to our Amended and Restated Articles.
Committees of the Board of Directors
Our Board of Directors has established two standing committees: the Audit
Committee and 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
approved by our Board and has the composition and responsibilities described below.
Audit Committee
Our
Board of Directors has established the Audit Committee. Mr. Farbman, Ms. Regev and Mr. Cohen serve as the members of our Audit Committee.
Under the Nasdaq Rules and applicable SEC rules, we are required to have three members of the Audit Committee, all of whom must be independent.
Mr. Farbman, Ms. Regev and Mr. Cohen are each independent.
Mr.
Farbman serves as the chairman of the Audit Committee. Each member of the Audit Committee is financially literate, and our Board of Directors
has determined that Mr. Farbman qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert” as defined in applicable SEC rules.
We
have adopted an Audit Committee charter, which details the principal functions of the Audit Committee, including:
● assisting 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;
40
●
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 FASB, the SEC or other regulatory authorities;
● advising the Board and any other Board committees if the clawback provisions of the SEC Clawback Rule
are triggered based upon a financial statement restatement or other financial statement change, with the assistance of Management and
to the extent that our securities continue to be listed on an exchange and subject to the SEC Clawback Rule; and
● implementing and overseeing our cybersecurity and information security policies, and periodically reviewing
the policies and managing potential cybersecurity incidents.
Compensation Committee
Our
Board of Directors has established the Compensation Committee. The members of our Compensation Committee are Mr. Farbman, Ms. Regev and
Mr. Cohen. Ms. Regev serves as chair of the Compensation Committee. Under the Nasdaq Rules and applicable SEC rules, we are required to
have a Compensation Committee of at least two members, all of whom must be independent. Mr. Farbman, Ms. Regev and Mr. Cohen are each
independent.
We
have adopted a Compensation Committee charter, 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;
● reviewing and making recommendations to our Board of Directors 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
● advising the Board and any other Board committees if the clawback provisions of the SEC Clawback Rule
are triggered based upon a financial statement restatement or other financial statement change and perform any other tasks required of
it by the Clawback Policy, with the assistance of Management and to the extent that our securities continue to be listed on an exchange
and subject to the SEC Clawback Rule.
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 considers the independence of each such adviser, including the factors required by Nasdaq and the SEC.
41
Director Nominations
We
do not have a standing nominating committee, though we intend to form a corporate governance and nominating committee as and when required
to do so by law or the Nasdaq Rules. In accordance with Rule 5605I(2) of the Nasdaq Rules, a majority of the independent directors may
recommend a director nominee for selection by our Board of Directors. Our Board of Directors 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 Mr. Farbman, Ms. Regev and Mr.
Cohen. 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 of Directors also considers 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 of Directors should follow the procedures set forth in our Amended and Restated Articles.
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 of Directors 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 of Directors.
Code of Ethics
We have adopted the Code of
Ethics. 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 rules or the 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 Report 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.
The foregoing description
of the Code of Ethics does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the terms and conditions of the Code of Ethics,
a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 14.
Trading Policies
We adopted
the Insider Trading Policy, effective as of November 17, 2025, 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 applicable Nasdaq Rules.
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.
Item 11.
Executive Compensation.
None
of our executive officers or directors have received any cash compensation for services rendered to us. 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, pursuant to the IPO Promissory
Note 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 $14,000 per month pursuant to the Administrative Services Agreement;
42
● Payment of consulting, success or finder fees to our independent directors, advisors, 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;
●
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 units of the post-Business Combination entity at a price of $10.00 per unit at the option of the lender. Such units (and underlying securities) would be identical to the Private Placement Units (and underlying securities). 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; and
●
Our independent directors each received, for their services as a director, an indirect interest in 20,000 Founder Shares through 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 initial 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 Management. 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-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 of Directors for determination, either
by the Compensation Committee or by a majority of the independent directors on our Board of Directors.
We
do not intend to take any action to ensure that members of our Management Team maintain their positions with us after the consummation
of our initial Business Combination, although it is possible that some or all of our officers and directors may negotiate employment or
consulting arrangements to remain with us 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 officers and directors that provide for benefits upon termination of employment.
Compensation Recovery and Clawback Policy
Effective as of November 25, 2025, our
Board of Directors approved the adoption of the Clawback Policy in order to comply with the SEC Clawback Rule, and the Nasdaq Rules, as
set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5608. At no time during the fiscal year covered by this Report
were we required to prepare an accounting restatement that required recovery of an erroneously awarded compensation pursuant to the Clawback
Policy, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 97.

Item 12.
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 31, 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 issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares;
●
each of our executive officers and directors that beneficially owns our Ordinary Shares; and
●
all our executive officers and directors as a group.
In the table below, percentage
ownership is based on 24,897,857 Ordinary Shares, consisting of (i) 17,505,000 Class A Ordinary Shares and (ii) 7,392,857 Class B Ordinary
Shares, issued and outstanding as of March 31, 2026. On all matters to be voted upon, except for (x)
the appointment and removal of directors to 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

Item 13.
Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence.
On July 1, 2025, our Sponsor
paid $25,000, or approximately $0.003 per share, to cover certain of our offering costs in exchange for an aggregate of 7,392,857 Founder
Shares.
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 17,250,000
Public Units if the Over-Allotment Option was exercised in full, and therefore that such Founder Shares would represent 30% of the outstanding
Ordinary Shares after the Initial Public Offering (excluding the Private Placement Shares). Up to 964,286 of the Founder Shares were to
be surrendered for no consideration depending on the extent to which the Over-Allotment Option was exercised. On November 28, 2025, the
Underwriters fully exercised their Over-Allotment Option and such 964,186 Founder Shares are no longer subject to forfeiture.
Simultaneously with the closing
of the Initial Public Offering and pursuant to the Private Placement Units Purchase Agreement, we completed the sale of 255,000 Private
Placement Units to the Sponsor in the Private Placement at a purchase price of $10.00 per Private Placement Unit, generating gross proceeds
to us of $2,550,000. The Private Placement Units (and underlying securities) are identical to the Public Units (and underlying securities),
so long as they are held by our Sponsor or its permitted transferees, the Private Placement Units (and the underlying 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.
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 Combination, which, if made prior to the completion of our initial Business Combination, will be
paid from funds held outside the Trust Account.
Commencing
on November 26, 2025, and until the completion of our Business Combination or liquidation, we reimburse an affiliate of the Sponsor $14,000
per month for office space, utilities, and secretarial and administrative support pursuant to the Administrative Services Agreement. As
of December 31, 2025, we incurred $16,333, in fees for these services, of which such amount is included in accrued expenses in the balance
sheets of the financial statements included elsewhere this Report.
Prior to the closing of our
Initial Public Offering, our Sponsor agreed to loan us an aggregate of up to $300,000 under the IPO Promissory Note to cover expenses
related to the Initial Public Offering. Such loans and advances were non-interest bearing and payable on the earlier of March 31, 2026
or the completion of our Initial Public Offering. The loan of $184,357 is now due on demand. No additional borrowing is available under
the IPO Promissory Note.
In addition, to fund working
capital deficiencies or finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor, or certain of our officers and
directors or their affiliates may, but are not obligated to, loan us Working Capital Loans, as may be required. If we complete a Business
Combination, we will repay such Working Capital Loans. In the event that a Business Combination does not close, we may use a portion of
the working capital held outside the Trust Account to repay such Working Capital Loans, but no proceeds from our Trust Account would be
used for such repayment. Up to $1,500,000 of such Working Capital Loans may be converted into units of the post-Business Combination entity
at a price of $10.00 per unit. The units (and underlying securities) would be identical to the Private Placement Units (and underlying
securities). Other than as set forth above, the terms of such Working Capital Loans, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements
exist with respect to such Working Capital Loans. As of December 31, 2025, we did not have any borrowings under any Working Capital Loans.
46
We have until the end of the
Combination Period to consummate our initial Business Combination, or until such earlier liquidation date as our Board of Directors may
approve, to consummate our initial Business Combination. If we anticipate that we may be unable to consummate our initial Business Combination
within the Combination Period, we may seek shareholder approval to amend our Amended and Restated Articles to further extend the Combination
Period. If we seek shareholder approval for an extension, our Public Shareholders will be offered an opportunity to redeem their 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
thereon (less taxes payable, if any), 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 pursuant
to the IPO Promissory Note issued to our Sponsor or repayments of any Working Capital Loans prior to our initial Business Combination
have been and will continue to 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.
The holders of (i) the Founder Shares, (ii) the Private Placement Units
and (iii) any private placement-equivalent units issued in connection with the Working Capital Loans, if any (and in each case holders
of their underlying securities, as applicable) are entitled to registration rights pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, requiring
us to register such securities for resale (in the case of the Founder Shares, only after conversion to our Class A Ordinary Shares). The
holders of the majority of these securities are entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short form demands, that we register such
securities. In addition, the holders have certain “piggyback” registration rights with respect to registration statements
filed subsequent to the consummation of a Business Combination and rights to require us to register for resale such securities pursuant
to Rule 415 under the Securities Act. We will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.
Our
Sponsor, directors and officers have entered into the Letter Agreement with us, pursuant to which, they have waived their rights to liquidating
distributions from the Trust Account with respect to any Founder Shares held by them if we fail to complete our initial Business Combination
within the Combination Period. However, if they acquire Public Shares in or after the Initial Public Offering, they will be entitled to
liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to such Public Shares if we fail to complete our initial Business Combination
within the Combination Period.
Additionally,
pursuant to the Letter Agreement, our Sponsor, directors and officers will not propose any amendment to our Amended and Restated Articles
to modify (i) the substance or timing of our obligation to allow redemption in connection with our initial Business Combination or to
redeem 100% of our Public Shares if we do not complete our initial Business Combination within the Combination Period or (ii) any other
material provisions relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-initial Business Combination activity, unless we provide our Public
Shareholders with the opportunity to redeem their Public Shares upon approval of any such amendment at a per-share price, payable in cash,
equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and
not previously released to us to pay our taxes, divided by the number of then outstanding Public Shares.
Director Independence
Nasdaq Rules require that
a majority of our Board of Directors 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 company’s board of directors, 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).
Our Board of Directors has determined that each of Mr. Farman, Ms. Regev and Mr. Cohen are “independent directors” as defined
in the Nasdaq Rules and applicable SEC rules. Our independent directors have regularly scheduled meetings at which only independent directors
are present.

other required filings with the SEC for the period from June 30, 2025 (inception) through December 31, 2025 totaled approximately $113,235.
The above amount include interim procedures and audit fees, as well as attendance at Audit Committee meetings.

Tax
fees consist of the aggregate fees billed for professional services relating to tax compliance, tax planning and tax advice. We

Pre-Approval Policy
Our Audit Committee was formed
upon the consummation of our Initial Public Offering. As a result, the Audit Committee did not pre-approve all of the foregoing services,
although any services rendered prior to the formation of our Audit Committee were approved by our Board of Directors. Since the formation
of our Audit Committee, and on a going-forward basis, the Audit Committee has and will pre-approve all auditing services and permitted
non-audit services performed and to be performed for us by our auditors, including the fees and terms thereof (subject to the de minimis
exceptions for non-audit services described in the Exchange Act which are approved by the Audit Committee prior to the completion of the
audit).

REPORT
OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors
of
SC II Acquisition Corp.:
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying balance
sheet of SC II Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2025 and the related statements of operations,
changes in shareholder’s equity, and cash flows for the period from June 30, 2025 (inception) through December 31, 2025, and
the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2025 and the results of its
operations and its cash flows for the period from June 30, 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 audits.
We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and
are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules
and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the
standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged
to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding
of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal
control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess
the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond
to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.
Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating
the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
/s/ WithumSmith+Brown, PC
We have served as the Company's auditor since
2025.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2025
Note 1 — Organization
and Business Operations
SC II Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”)
is a blank check company incorporated as a Cayman Islands exempted corporation on June 30, 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. The Company may pursue an initial Business
Combination in any business or industry.
As of December 31, 2025, the Company had not commenced
any operations. All activity for the period from June 30, 2025 (inception) through December 31, 2025 relates to the Company’s
formation, the initial public offering (the “Initial Public Offering”), which is described below and subsequent to the Initial
Public Offering, identifying a target company for a Business Combination. The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after
the completion of its initial Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company generates 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 November 25, 2025. On November 28, 2025, the Company consummated the Initial Public
Offering of 17,250,000 units (the “Public Units” and, with respect to the Class A ordinary shares, par value $ 0.0001 per
share (the “Class A Ordinary Shares”) included in the Public Units being offered, the “Public Shares”), which
includes the full exercise by the Underwriters of the Over-Allotment Option (as defined below) in the amount of 2,250,000 Public Units,
at $ 10.00 per Public Unit, generating gross proceeds of $ 172,500,000 . Each Public Unit consists of one Public Share and one right (the
“Right”) to receive one fifth (1/5) of a Class A Ordinary Share upon the consummation of an initial Business Combination (the
“Public Right”).
Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial
Public Offering, the Company consummated the sale of 255,000 units (the “Private Placement Units”) at a price of $ 10.00 per
Private Placement Unit, in a private placement to the Company’s sponsor, SC Capital II Sponsor LLC (the “Sponsor”),
generating gross proceeds of $ 2,550,000 (the “Private Placement”). Each Private Placement Unit consists of one Class A Ordinary
Shares (the “Private Placement Share”) and one Right (the “Private Placement Right”).
Transaction costs amounted to $ 1,280,564 , consisting
of $ 750,000 of cash underwriting fee (net of $ 2,700,000 underwriters’ reimbursement), and $ 530,564 of other offering costs.
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 the amount of Deferred Fee (as defined below), if any, and 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.

Following the closing of the Initial Public Offering,
on November 28, 2025, an amount of $ 172,500,000 ($ 10.00 per Public Unit) from the net proceeds of the sale of the Public Units and the
Private Placement Units was placed in the trust account (the “Trust Account”), located in the United States, 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 for the withdrawal of interest to pay taxes, other than excise taxes, if any, and up to $ 100,000 to pay dissolution
expenses, as applicable, if any, the proceeds from the Initial Public Offering and the sale of the Private Placement Units will not
be released from the Trust Account until the earliest of (i) the completion of the initial Business Combination, (ii) the redemption
of the Company’s public shares if the Company is unable to complete the initial Business Combination within 18 months which
the Company may, at the Sponsor’s option, extend two times, each by an additional three (3) months, without shareholder approval,
for a total of 24 months, from the closing of the Initial Public Offering), or by such earlier liquidation date as the Company’s
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 (the “Amended and Restated Articles”) 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 “Public Shareholders”).
The Company will provide the 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
Public 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 (less taxes, if any, payable and up to $ 100,000 of interest income to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number
of then outstanding Public Shares, subject to the limitations. The amount in the Trust Account is initially invested at $ 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’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480
“Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.”
The Company has 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 (less taxes payable, if any, 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.
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 (as defined below) and Public Shares in connection with the completion of the initial Business Combination or an
earlier redemption in connection with the commencement of the procedures to consummate the initial Business Combination if the Company
determines it is desirable to facilitate 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 Articles; (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 Company’s 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 Account assets, less taxes payable, if any, and up
to $ 100,000 of dissolution expenses, 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 (the “Underwriters”)
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 — Significant Accounting
Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying financial statement is 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 U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company’s liquidity needs up to November
28, 2025 had been satisfied through the loan under an unsecured IPO Promissory Note (as defined below) from the Sponsor of up to $ 300,000 .
As of December 31, 2025, the Company had cash of $ 1,269,764 and working capital surplus of $ 1,084,277 .
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. 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 (as defined
below) may be converted into Private Placement-equivalent units upon consummation of the Business Combination at a price of $ 10.00 per
unit. The units would be identical to the Private Placement Units. 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 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 statement.
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.
F- 9
SC II ACQUISITION CORP.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2025
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 statement 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 accompanying financial
statements in conformity with US GAAP requires the Company’s 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.
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 $ 1,269,764 in cash and no cash
equivalents as of December 31, 2025.
Marketable Securities Held in Trust Account
As of December 31, 2025, the assets held in the
Trust Account, amounting to $ 172,778,783 , were held in money market funds which invest in U.S. Treasury securities.
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.
Offering Costs
The Company complies with the requirements of
the FASB ASC Topic 340-10-S99, “Other Assets and Deferred Costs” 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 Topic 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 Public Units between Class A Ordinary Shares and Rights, using the residual method by allocating Initial Public Offering proceeds
first to the assigned value of the Public Rights and then to the Class A Ordinary Shares. Offering costs allocated to the Public Shares
were charged to temporary equity, and offering costs allocated to Public Rights and Private Placement Units were charged to shareholders’
equity, as the Rights, 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 Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,”
approximates the carrying amounts represented in the balance sheet, primarily due to their short-term nature.
F- 10
SC II ACQUISITION CORP.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2025
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under FASB
ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes,” (“ASC 740”) 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 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.
Rights
The Company accounted for the Public Rights and
Private Placement Rights 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 Rights
under equity treatment at their assigned values.
Class A Ordinary Shares Subject to Possible
Redemption
The Public Shares contain a redemption feature
which allows for the redemption of such Public Shares in connection with the Company’s liquidation, or if there is a shareholder
vote or tender offer in connection with the Company’s initial Business Combination. In accordance with FASB ASC 480-10-S99, “Distinguishing
Liabilities from Equity” the Company classifies Public Shares subject to redemption outside of permanent equity as the redemption
provisions are not solely within the control of the Company. The Company recognizes changes in redemption value immediately as they occur
and will adjust the carrying value of redeemable shares to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Immediately
upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company recognized the accretion from initial book value to redemption value. The
change in the carrying value of redeemable shares will result in charges against additional paid-in capital (to the extent available)
and accumulated deficit. Accordingly, as of December 31, 2025, Class A Ordinary Shares subject to possible redemption are presented at
redemption value as temporary equity, outside of the shareholders’ equity section of the Company’s balance sheet. As of December
31, 2025, the Class A Ordinary Shares subject to possible redemption reflected in the balance sheet are reconciled in the following table:

Net Income Per Ordinary Share
The Company complies with accounting and disclosure
requirements of FASB ASC Topic 260, “Earnings Per Share”. Income and losses are shared pro rata to the shares. Net income
per Ordinary Share (as defined below) is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of Ordinary Shares outstanding
for the period. Accretion associated with the redeemable Ordinary Shares is excluded from income per Ordinary Share as the redemption
value approximates fair value.
The calculation of diluted income per Ordinary
Share does not consider the effect of the Rights issued in connection with the (i) Initial Public Offering, (ii) the exercise of the over-allotment
option and (iii) Private Placement Rights, since the average stock price of the Company’s Ordinary Shares for the period June 30,
2025 (inception) through ended December 31, 2025 was less than the exercise price and therefore, the inclusion of such Rights and Private
Placement Rights under the treasury stock method would be anti-dilutive and the exercise is contingent upon the occurrence of future events.
The Rights are convertible into 3,501,000 Ordinary Shares in the aggregate. As of December 31, 2025, the Company had potentially dilutive
securities; however, such securities were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share as their effect would have been
anti-dilutive or contingent upon the occurrence of future events. As a result, diluted net income per Ordinary Share is the same as basic
net income per Ordinary Share for the periods presented.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Management does not believe that any recently

Note 3 — Initial Public
Offering
In the Initial Public Offering on November 28,
2025, the Company sold 17,250,000 Public Units, which includes the full exercise by the underwriters of their over-allotment option in
the amount of 2,250,000 Public Units, at a purchase price of $ 10.00 per Public Unit (the “Over Allotment Option”). Each Public
Unit consists of one Public Share, and one Public Right.
Note 4 — Private Placement
Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial
Public Offering, the Sponsor purchased an aggregate of 255,000 Private Placement Units at a price of $ 10.00 per Private Placement Unit,
or $ 2,550,000 in the aggregate, in a Private Placement. Each Private Placement Unit consists of one Private Placement Share and one Private
Placement Right.
If the initial Business Combination is not completed
within the Completion Window, the proceeds from the sale of the Private Placement Units held in the Trust Account will be used to
fund the redemption of the Public Shares (subject to the requirements of applicable law).

The Sponsor and the Company’s officers and

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 July 7, 2025, the Sponsor made a capital
contribution of $ 25,000 , or approximately $ 0.003 per share, to cover certain of the Company’s expenses, for which the Company issued
7,392,857 Class B ordinary shares (the “Class B Ordinary Shares” and together with the Class A Ordinary Shares the “Ordinary
Shares”), known as founder shares (the “Founder Shares”), to the Sponsor. Up to 964,286 of the Founder Shares may be
surrendered by the Sponsor for no consideration depending on the extent to which the Underwriters’ exercise the Over Allotment Option.
On November 28, 2025, the Underwriters exercised the Over Allotment Option in full as part of the closing of the Initial Public Offering.
As such, the 964,286 Founder Shares are no longer subject to forfeiture.
On November 24, 2025, the Sponsor granted membership
interests equivalent to an aggregate of 70,000 Founder Shares to the officer and directors of the Company in exchange for their services
as officer and directors through the Company’s initial Business Combination. 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 70,000 Founder Shares represented by such membership interests assigned to the holders of such interests on November
24, 2025 was $ 115,360 or $ 1.648 per share. The Company established the initial fair value Founder Shares on November 24, 2025, the date
of the grant agreement, using a calculation prepared by a third party valuation team which takes into consideration the share price of
$ 9.67 , risk free rate of 3.96 %, and a market adjustment of 17.1 %. The Founder Shares are classified as Level 3 at the measurement date
due to the use of unobservable inputs, and other risk factors. The membership interests were assigned subject to a performance condition
(i.e., providing services through Business Combination). Stock-based compensation would be recognized at the date a Business Combination
is considered probable (i.e., upon consummation of a Business Combination) in an amount equal to the number of membership interests that
ultimately vest 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, the Company determined that the initial Business Combination is not considered
probable and therefore no compensation expense has been recognized.
The Founder Shares are designated as Class B
Ordinary Shares and, except as described below, are identical to the Class A Ordinary Shares included in the Public Units being
sold in the Initial Public Offering, and holders of Founder Shares have the same shareholder rights as Public Shareholders, except that
(i) the Founder Shares are subject to certain transfer restrictions, as described in more detail below, (ii) the Founder Shares
are entitled to registration rights; (iii) the Sponsor, officers and directors have entered into a letter agreement with us, pursuant
to which they have agreed to (A) waive their redemption rights with respect to their Founder Shares, Private Placement Shares and
Public Shares in connection with the completion of the initial Business Combination, (B) waive their redemption rights with respect
to their Founder Shares, Private Placement Shares and Public Shares in connection with a shareholder vote to approve an amendment to the
Amended and Restated Articles (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 we have 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, (C) waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to their Founder
Shares or Private Placement 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 such time period and to liquidating distributions from assets outside the Trust Account
and (D) vote any Founder Shares and Private Placement Shares held by them and any Public Shares purchased during or after the Initial
Public Offering (including in open market and privately-negotiated transactions, aside from Public Shares they may purchase in compliance
with the requirements of Rule 14e-5 under the Exchange Act, which would not be voted in favor of approving the Business Combination
transaction) in favor of the initial Business Combination, (iv) the Founder Shares are automatically convertible into Class A
Ordinary Shares in connection with the consummation of the initial Business Combination or earlier at the option of the holder on a one-for-one
basis, subject to adjustment as described herein and in the Company Amended and Restated Articles, and (v) prior to the closing of
the initial Business Combination, only holders of the 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
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).

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 “IPO Promissory Note”).
The IPO Promissory Note is non-interest bearing, unsecured and due at the earlier of March 31, 2026 or the closing of the Initial
Public Offering. As of December 31, 2025, the Company had borrowed $ 184,357 under the IPO Promissory Note, which is now due on demand.
Borrowings under the IPO Promissory Note are no longer available.
Administrative Services Agreement
The Company entered into an agreement with Nukkleus
Defense Technologies, Inc., the managing member of the Sponsor, commencing on November 25, 2025 through the earlier of the Company’s
consummation of initial Business Combination and its liquidation, to pay an aggregate of $ 14,000 per month for office space, utilities,
and secretarial and administrative support services. For the period from June 30, 2025 (inception) through December 31, 2025, the Company
incurred $ 16,333 in fees for these services of which such amount is included in accounts payable and accrued expenses in the accompanying
balance sheet.
Related Party 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 (the “Working capital Loans”). 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 Units of the post Business Combination entity at a price of $ 10.00 per unit at the option of the lender. As
of December 31, 2025, no such Working Capital Loans were outstanding.
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, between the United States, Israel, Iran and others in the Middle East, and Southwest Asia or
other armed hostilities. 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 Founder Shares, Private Placement
Units (and their underlying securities) and units that may be issued upon conversion of Working Capital Loans (and their underlying
securities), if any, and any Class A Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion of the Founder Shares and any Public Shares held by
the initial shareholders at the completion of the Initial Public Offering or acquired prior to or in connection with the initial Business
Combination, will be entitled to registration rights pursuant to a registration rights agreement signed on November 25, 2025. These holders
will be entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short form demands, and have piggyback registration rights. In addition, these
holders have certain “piggy-back” 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.

28, 2025, the underwriters elected to fully exercise the Over-Allotment Option to purchase an additional 2,250,000 Public Units at a price
of $ 10.00 per Public Unit.
The Underwriters were entitled to an underwriting
discount of 2 % of the gross proceeds of the Initial Public Offering, or $ 3,450,000 in the aggregate, which was paid upon the closing of
the Initial Public Offering (the “Deferred Fee”). The Underwriters paid the Company an aggregate amount of $ 2,700,000 at the
closing of the Initial Public Offering as reimbursement to the Company for certain of its expenses and fees incurred in connection with
the Initial Public Offering (a portion of which will be used for working capital).
Note 7 — Shareholders’
Equity
Preference Shares
The Company is
authorized to issue a total of 5,000,000 preference shares at par value of $ 0.0001 each. As of December 31, 2025, there were no shares
of preference shares issued or outstanding.
Class A Ordinary Shares
The
Company is authorized to issue a total of 500,000,000 Class A Ordinary Shares at par value of $ 0.0001 each. As of December 31, 2025,
there were 255,000 Class A Ordinary Shares issued and outstanding, excluding the 17,250,000 shares subject to possible redemption.
Class B Ordinary Shares
The
Company is authorized to issue a total of 50,000,000 Class B Ordinary Shares at par value of $ 0.0001 each. As of December 31, 2025,
there were 7,392,857 Class B Ordinary Shares issued and outstanding.
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 sub-divisions, share capitalizations, reorganizations,
recapitalizations and the like. 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 the Initial Public 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, 30 % of the sum of (i) the total number of all Ordinary Shares outstanding upon the completion
of the Initial Public Offering (including any Class A Ordinary Shares issued pursuant to the Underwriters’ Over-Allotment Option
and excluding the securities underlying the Private Placement Units issued to the Sponsor), 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
units issued to the Sponsor or any of its affiliates or to the officers or directors of the Company 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 Articles or as required by the Companies Act or stock exchange
rules, an ordinary resolution under Cayman Islands law and the Amended and Restated Articles, 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 the Company’s 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, voting together as a single class, and pursuant to the Amended and Restated Articles, such
actions include amending the Amended and Restated Articles 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 our 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 Articles may only
be amended if approved by a special resolution passed by the affirmative vote of at least 90 % (or, where such amendment is proposed in
respect of the consummation of the initial Business Combination, 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 of the Company, voting together as
a single class.

Rights
Except in cases where the
Company is not the surviving company in a Business Combination, each holder of a Right will automatically receive one fifth (1/5) of
one Class A Ordinary Shares upon consummation of the initial Business Combination. In the event the Company is not the surviving
Company upon completion of the initial Business Combination, each holder of a Right will be required to affirmatively convert its Rights
in order to receive the one fifth (1/5) of one Class A Ordinary Shares underlying each Right upon consummation of the Business Combination.
The Company will not issue fractional shares in connection with an exchange of Rights. Fractional shares will either be rounded down
to the nearest whole share or otherwise addressed in accordance with the applicable provisions of Cayman Islands law. As a result, holders
of Rights must hold Rights in multiples of 5 in order to receive shares for all of the Rights upon closing of a Business Combination.
If the Company is unable to complete an initial Business Combination within the required time period and the Company redeems the Public
Shares for the funds held in the Trust Account, holders of Rights will not receive any of such funds for their Rights and the Rights
will expire worthless.
Note 8 — Fair Value Measurements
The fair value of the Company’s financial
assets and liabilities reflects management’s estimate of amounts that the Company would have received in connection with the sale
of the assets or paid in connection with the transfer of the liabilities in an orderly transaction between market participants at the
measurement date. In connection with measuring the fair value of its assets and liabilities, the Company seeks to maximize the use of
observable inputs (market data obtained from independent sources) and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs (internal assumptions
about how market participants would price assets and liabilities). The following fair value hierarchy is used to classify assets and liabilities
based on the observable inputs and unobservable inputs used in order to value the assets and liabilities:
Level 1:
Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. An active market for an asset or liability is a market in which transactions for the asset or liability occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.
Level 2:
Observable inputs other than Level 1 inputs. Examples of Level 2 inputs include quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities and quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.
Level 3:
Unobservable inputs based on an assessment of the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.
The Company’s investments held in the Trust
Account, consisting of U.S. Treasury securities and/or money market funds, are classified as Level 1 financial instruments.

$ 172,778,783
The fair value of the Public Rights issued in
the Initial Public Offering was $ 5,382,000 , or $ 0.312 per Public Right. The Public Rights have been classified within shareholders’
equity and will not require remeasurement after issuance. The fair value was determined using Level 3 input due to the use of unobservable
assumptions related to the market adjustments as noted below:

$ 10.03
Stock price
$ 9.72
Pre-adjusted value per right

Market adjustment (1)

(1) The
Market adjustment reflects additional factors, which may include the likelihood of Business Combination occurring, market perception
of lack of available or suitable targets, or possible post-acquisition decline of stock price prior to beginning of the exercise period.
The adjustment is determined by comparing traded Public Right prices to simulated model outputs. The market adjustment was determined
by calibrating traded Public Rights prices as of the valuation dates.

Note 9 — 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 Chief Executive Officer has
been identified as the CODM, who reviews the operating results for the Company as a whole to make decisions about allocating resources
and assessing financial performance. Accordingly, management has determined that the Company only has one 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
Cash
$ 1,269,764
Marketable securities held in Trust Account
$ 172,778,783
For the
Period from
June 30, 2025
(Inception)
Through
December 31,
2025
General and administrative expenses
$ 173,943
Interest earned on marketable securities held in Trust Account
$ 278,783
General and administrative expenses are reviewed
and monitored by the CODM to manage and forecast cash to ensure enough capital is available to complete a Proposed Public Offering and
eventually a Business Combination within the business combination period. The CODM also reviews general and administrative expenses to
manage, maintain and enforce all contractual agreements to ensure costs are aligned with all agreements and budget. General and administrative
expenses , as reported on the statement of operations, are the significant segment expenses provided to the CODM on a regular basis. The
CODM also monitors the balance and returns on marketable securities held in the Trust Account, including interest income, to assess liquidity
and capital preservation.
Note 10 — Subsequent Events
The Company evaluated subsequent events and transactions
that occurred after the balance sheet date through December 31, 2025, the date that the financial statement was issued. Based upon this
review, other than as noted below, the Company did not identify any subsequent events that would require adjustment or disclosure in the
financial statement.
On January 16, 2026,
the Company announced that, commencing on January 20, 2026, the holders of the Public Units may elect to separately trade the Public Shares
and the Public Rights. Any Public Units not separated will continue to trade on the Global Market tier of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC
(“Nasdaq”) under the symbol “SCIIU”. The Public Shares and the Public Rights are expected to trade on the Global
Market tier of Nasdaq under the symbols “SCII” and “SCIIR,” respectively. Holders of Public Units will need to
have their brokers contact Continental, the Company’s transfer agent, in order to separate the Public Units into Public Shares and
Public Rights.
