+Added: This management’s discussion
+Added: and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our unaudited condensed financial statements, which have
+Added: been prepared in accordance with U.S.
+Added: The preparation of these unaudited condensed financial statements requires us to make estimates
+Added: and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and the disclosure of contingent assets and
+Added: liabilities in our unaudited condensed financial statements.
+Added: On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and judgments, including those
+Added: related to fair value of financial instruments and accrued expenses.
+Added: We base our estimates on historical experience, known trends and
+Added: events and various other factors that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making
+Added: judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.
+Added: Actual results may differ
+Added: from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
+Added: There have been no significant changes in our critical accounting policies

+Added: Class A Ordinary Shares Subject to Possible
+Added: We account for our Class
+Added: A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in ASC Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from
+Added: Equity.” Class A ordinary shares subject to mandatory redemption (if any) are classified as a liability instrument and are measured
+Added: at fair value.
+Added: Conditionally redeemable ordinary shares (including ordinary shares that feature redemption rights that are either within
+Added: the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within our control) are classified
+Added: as temporary equity.
At all other times, Class A ordinary shares are classified as shareholders’ deficit.
−Removed: A ordinary shares feature certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of our control and subject to the occurrence of
−Removed: uncertain future events.
−Removed: Accordingly, as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, 34,500,000 Class A ordinary shares subject to possible
−Removed: redemption are presented at redemption value as temporary equity, outside of the shareholders’ deficit section of our balance sheets.
−Removed: Derivative Warrant
−Removed: do not use derivative instruments to hedge exposures to cash flow, market, or foreign currency risks.
−Removed: We evaluate all of our financial
−Removed: instruments, including issued share purchase Warrants, to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify
−Removed: as embedded derivatives, pursuant to ASC 480 and ASC 815-15.
−Removed: The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments
−Removed: should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is reassessed at the end of each reporting period.
−Removed: account for our 14,891,667 Warrants issued in connection with our Initial Public Offering (8,625,000) and Private Placement (6,266,667)
−Removed: as derivative warrant liabilities in accordance with ASC 815-40.
−Removed: Accordingly, we recognize the warrant instruments as liabilities at fair
−Removed: value and adjust the instruments to fair value at each reporting period.
−Removed: The liabilities are subject to re-measurement at each balance
−Removed: sheet date until exercised, and any change in fair value is recognized in our statements of operations.
−Removed: The fair value of the Private
−Removed: Placement Warrants has been estimated using Monte Carlo simulations at each measurement date.
−Removed: The fair value of the Public Warrants was
−Removed: initially estimated using Monte Carlo simulations.
−Removed: After the Public Warrants were separately traded, the measurement of the Public Warrants
−Removed: used an observable market quote in an active market.
−Removed: Net Income (Loss)
−Removed: per Ordinary Share
−Removed: have two classes of shares, which are referred to as Class A ordinary shares and Class B ordinary shares.
−Removed: Earnings and losses are shared
−Removed: pro rata between the two classes of shares.
−Removed: The 14,891,667 potential ordinary shares issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants were excluded
−Removed: from diluted earnings per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021 because the Warrants are contingently
−Removed: exercisable, and the contingencies have not yet been met.
−Removed: As a result, diluted net income (loss) per ordinary share is the same as basic
