Relationships Among Officers and Directors
Dan Nash, our Chief Executive Officer, is the brother of Adam Nash,
our Director. There are no other family relationships among our officers and directors.
Number, Terms of Office and Election of Officers
Directors
We have five directors. Our
board of directors is divided into three classes, each of which will generally serve for terms of three years with only one class of directors
being elected in each year. We may not hold an annual meeting of shareholders until after we consummate our initial business combination
(unless required by Nasdaq).
Our executive 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 persons to the offices set forth in our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association
as it deems appropriate.
Committees of the Board of Directors
Our board of directors has
two standing committees: an audit committee and a compensation committee. Subject to phase-in rules and a limited exception, the rules
of Nasdaq and Rule 10A-3 of the Exchange Act require that the audit committee of a listed company be comprised solely of independent directors,
and the rules of Nasdaq require that the compensation committee of a listed company be comprised solely of independent directors.
Audit Committee
Jackson Fu, Matthew Murphy
and Pankaj Shah serve as members of our audit committee. Mr. Murphy serves as the chair of the audit committee. Under Nasdaq listing standards
and applicable SEC rules, we are required to have three members of the audit committee, all of whom must be independent. Each of Mr. Fu,
Mr. Murphy and Mr. Shah is independent.
Each member of the audit
committee is financially literate and our board of directors will determine that Mr. Fu qualifies as an “audit committee financial
expert” as defined in applicable SEC rules.

accounting firm.
56
Compensation Committee
Jackson Fu and Pankaj Shah
serve as members of our compensation committee, with Mr. Shah serving as the chair of the compensation committee. Under the Nasdaq listing
standards and applicable SEC rules, we are required to have at least two members of the compensation committee, all of whom must be independent,
subject to certain phase-in provisions. Each such person meets the independent director standard under Nasdaq listing standards applicable
to members of the compensation committee.
We have adopted a compensation

57
The charter also provides
that the compensation committee may, in its sole discretion, retain or obtain the advice of a compensation consultant, independent legal
counsel or other adviser and is directly responsible for the appointment, compensation and oversight of the work of any such adviser.
However, before engaging or receiving advice from a compensation consultant, external legal counsel or any other adviser, the compensation
committee will consider the independence of each such adviser, including the factors required by Nasdaq and the SEC.
Director Nominations
We do not have a standing
nominating committee though we intend to form a corporate governance and nominating committee as and when required to do so by law or
Nasdaq rules. In accordance with Rule 5605 of the Nasdaq rules, a majority of the independent directors may recommend a director nominee
for selection by the board of directors. The 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 will participate in the consideration and recommendation of director nominees are Mr. Fu, Mr. Murphy and Mr. Shah. In accordance with
Rule 5605 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.
Prior to our initial business
combination, the board of directors will also consider director candidates recommended for nomination by holders of our founder shares
during such times as they are seeking proposed nominees to stand for appointment at an annual general meeting (or, if applicable, an extraordinary
general meeting). Prior to our initial business combination, holders of our public shares will not have the right to recommend director
candidates for nomination to our board.
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, the 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.
Code of Ethics and Committee Charters
We have adopted a code of ethics and business
conduct (our “Code of Ethics”) applicable to our directors, officers and employees. We have filed a copy of our Code of Ethics,
our Audit Committee Charter and our Compensation Committee Charter as exhibits to our registration statement for our initial public offering.
You may also review these documents by accessing our public filings at the SEC’s web site at www.sec.gov . We intend to disclose
any amendments to or waivers of certain provisions of our Code of Ethics in a Current Report on Form 8-K.
Trading Policies
We adopted insider trading policies and procedures governing the purchase, sale, and/or other dispositions of our securities by directors, officers and employees, which are reasonably designed to promote compliance with insider trading laws, rules and regulations, and the applicable Nasdaq Rules (the “Insider Trading Policy”). We have filed our Insider Trading Policy as an exhibit to this Annual Report.
58
ITEM 11. EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
Executive Officer and Director Compensation
Commencing
on December 23, 2025, through the earlier of consummation of our initial business combination and our liquidation, we pay our sponsor
a monthly fee of $25,000 per month for office space and general and administrative services until the consummation of an initial business
combination. Our sponsor and the officers and directors will be entitled to reimbursement from the Company for their out-of-pocket expenses
incurred and advisory fees shall be paid to the directors and advisors in connection with certain activities on the company’s behalf.
Each of our directors and officers owns membership interests in our sponsor representing founder shares. See “ Item
12. Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management and Related Stockholder Matters.” In addition, Mr. O’Neil
receives a monthly fee of $8,333.33 for services performed for us in connection with our initial business combination.
Except as set forth above and in this paragraph,
no compensation will be paid to our sponsor, executive officers and directors, or any of their respective affiliates, prior to or in connection
with the consummation of our initial business combination. Additionally, these individuals will be reimbursed for any out-of-pocket expenses
incurred in connection with activities on our behalf such as identifying potential target businesses and performing due diligence on suitable
business combinations. Our Board of Directors may also approve the payment of advisory fees to directors in connection with such activities,
including board committee service, and extraordinary administrative and analytical services. Our independent directors will review on
a quarterly basis all payments that were made to our Sponsor, executive officers, directors or our or their affiliates.
After the completion of 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 shareholders, to the extent then known, in the tender offer materials or proxy solicitation materials
furnished to our shareholders in connection with a proposed business combination. It is unlikely the amount of such compensation will
be known at the time, as it will be up to the directors of the post-combination business to determine executive and director compensation.
Any compensation to be paid to our officers will be determined, or recommended, to the board of directors for determination, either by
a committee constituted solely of independent directors 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
the 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.
Clawback Policy
Under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, in the event of misconduct that results
in a financial restatement that would have reduced a previously paid incentive amount, we can recoup those improper payments from our
executive officers. We have adopted the Executive Officer Clawback Policy to comply with the rules adopted by the SEC under Rule 10D-1
under the Exchange Act, and the listing standards, as set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule. We have filed our Executive Officer Clawback Policy
as an exhibit to this Annual Report.

ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED
TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE
Certain Relationships and Related Transactions
On August 7, 2025, our
sponsor purchased 7,665,900 Class B ordinary shares from us for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000, or approximately $0.003 per
share. In connection with our initial public offering, our sponsor holds 7,165,950 shares, exclusive of 499,950 Class B ordinary shares
which were forfeited following the expiration of the remaining portion of the underwriters’ over-allotment option on February 6,
2026.
Our sponsor, officers and
directors, or any of their respective affiliates, will be reimbursed for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with activities
on our behalf such as identifying potential target businesses and performing due diligence on suitable business combinations. Our board
of directors may also approve the payment of advisory fees to directors in connection with such activities, including board committee
service and extraordinary administrative and analytical services. Our audit committee will review on a quarterly basis all payments that
were made to our sponsor, officers, directors or our or any of their affiliates and will determine which expenses and the amount of expenses
that will be reimbursed. There is no cap or ceiling on the reimbursement of out-of-pocket expenses incurred by such persons
in connection with activities on our behalf.
Pursuant to a registration
rights agreement we entered into with each of our initial shareholders and the representative upon the closing of our initial
public offering, we may be required to register certain securities for sale under the Securities Act. These holders, and the holders of
units issued upon conversion of working capital loans, if any, are entitled under the registration rights agreement to make up to three
demands that we register certain of our securities held by them under the Securities Act and to have the securities covered thereby registered
for resale pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act. In addition, these holders have the right to include their securities in
any other registration statement filed by us. However, the registration rights agreement provides that we will not permit any registration
statement filed under the Securities Act to become effective until the securities covered thereby are released from their respective lock-up restrictions,
as described herein. We will bear the costs and expenses of filing any such registration statements.
Our sponsor purchased 425,000
private placement units at $10.00 per unit, and the representative purchased an aggregate of 215,000 private placement units at a price
of $10.00 per unit. These purchases took place on a private placement basis simultaneously with the consummation of our initial public
offering and thereafter with the partial exercise of the over-allotment option. A portion of the proceeds we received from the purchase
of the private placement units was placed in the trust account described below.
In order to finance transaction
costs in connection with an intended initial business combination, our sponsor, executive officers, directors, or their affiliates may,
but are not obligated to, loan us funds as may be required. If we consummate our initial business combination, we would repay such loaned
amounts. In the event that the initial business combination does not close, we may use a portion of the offering proceeds held outside
the trust account to repay such loaned amounts but no proceeds from our trust account would be used to repay such loaned amounts. Up to
$1,500,000 of such loans may be convertible into additional units of the post-business combination entity at a price of $10.00 per
unit at the option of the lender. The units would be identical to the private placement units.
61
The holders of our founder
shares and private placement shares issued and outstanding on the date of this Annual Report, as well as the holders of the private placement
warrants, our sponsor, officers, directors or their affiliates may be issued in payment of working capital loans made to us (and all underlying
securities), will be entitled to registration rights pursuant to an agreement signed on the effective date of our initial public offering.
The holders of a majority of these securities are entitled to make up to three demands that we register such securities. The holders of
a majority of these securities or units issued in payment of working capital loans made to us (or underlying securities) can elect to
exercise these registration rights at any time after we consummate a business combination. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back”
registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to our consummation of a business combination. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary, the representative may only make a demand on one occasion and only during the five-year period beginning
on the effective date of the registration statement of which this Annual Report forms a part. In addition, the representative may participate
in a “piggy-back” registration only during the seven-year period beginning on the effective date of the registration
statement of which this Annual Report forms a part. We will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration
statements.
Other than the foregoing
and as described in this paragraph, no compensation or fees of any kind, including finder’s, consulting fees and other similar fees,
will be paid to our sponsor, members of our management team or their respective affiliates, for services rendered prior to or in connection
with the consummation of our initial business combination (regardless of the type of transaction that it is). However, such individuals
will receive the repayment of any loans from our sponsor, officers and directors for working capital purposes and reimbursement for any out-of-pocket expenses
incurred by them in connection with activities on our behalf, such as identifying potential target businesses, performing business due
diligence on suitable target businesses and business combinations as well as traveling to and from the offices, plants or similar locations
of prospective target businesses to examine their operations. Our Board of Directors may also approve the payment of advisory fees for
such activities, including board committee service, and extraordinary administrative and analytical services. There is no limit on the
amount of out-of-pocket expenses reimbursable by us. Our independent directors will review on a quarterly basis all payments
that were made to our sponsor, executive officers or our or their affiliates.
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 shareholders, to the extent then known, in the proxy solicitation materials furnished
to our shareholders. It is unlikely the amount of such compensation will be known at the time of a shareholder meeting held to consider
an initial business combination, as it will be up to the directors of the post-combination business to determine executive and director
compensation. In this event, such compensation will be publicly disclosed at the time of its determination in a Current Report on Form 8-K, as
required by the SEC.
All ongoing and future transactions
between us and any of our officers and directors or their respective affiliates will be on terms believed by us to be no less favorable
to us than are available from unaffiliated third parties. Such transactions will require prior approval by a majority of our uninterested
“independent” directors or the members of our Board of Directors who do not have an interest in the transaction, in either
case who had access, at our expense, to our attorneys or independent legal counsel. We will not enter into any such transaction unless
our disinterested “independent” directors determine that the terms of such transaction are no less favorable to us than those
that would be available to us with respect to such a transaction from unaffiliated third parties.
Related Party Policy
We have not yet
adopted a formal policy for the review, approval or ratification of related party transactions. Accordingly, the transactions
discussed above were not reviewed, approved or ratified in accordance with any such policy. Prior to the closing of our initial
public offering, we adopted our Code of Ethics requiring us to avoid, wherever possible, all
related party transactions that could result in actual or potential conflicts of interests, except under guidelines approved by the
board of directors (or the audit committee). Related party transactions are defined as transactions in which (1) the aggregate
amount involved will or may be expected to exceed $120,000 in any calendar year, (2) we or any of our subsidiaries is a
participant, and (3) any (a) executive officer, director or nominee for election as a director, (b) greater than 5%
beneficial owner of our shares, or (c) immediate family member, of the persons referred to in clauses (a) and (b), has or
will have a direct or indirect material interest (other than solely as a result of being a director or a less than 10% beneficial
owner of another entity). A conflict of interest situation can arise when a person takes actions or has interests that may make it
difficult to perform his or her work objectively and effectively. Conflicts of interest may also arise if a person, or a member of
his or her family, receives improper personal benefits as a result of his or her position.
Our audit committee,
pursuant to its written charter, is responsible for reviewing and approving related party transactions to the extent we enter into
such transactions. The audit committee will consider all relevant factors when determining whether to approve a related party
transaction, including whether the related party transaction is on terms no less favorable to us than terms generally available from
an unaffiliated third party under the same or similar circumstances and the extent of the related party’s interest in the
transaction. No director may participate in the approval of any transaction in which he is a related party, and that director is
required to provide the audit committee with all material information concerning the transaction. We also require each of our
directors and executive officers to complete a directors’ and officers’ questionnaire that elicits information about
related party transactions. These procedures are intended to determine whether any such related party transaction impairs the
independence of a director or presents a conflict of interest on the part of a director, employee or officer.
To further minimize conflicts
of interest, we have agreed not to consummate an initial business combination with an entity that is affiliated with any of our sponsor,
officers or directors, including (i) an entity that is either a portfolio company of, or has otherwise received a material financial
investment from, any private equity fund or investment company (or an affiliate thereof) that is affiliated with any of the foregoing,
(ii) an entity in which any of the foregoing or their affiliates are currently passive investors, (iii) an entity in which any
of the foregoing or their affiliates are currently officers or directors, or (iv) an entity in which any of the foregoing or their
affiliates are currently invested through an investment vehicle controlled by them, unless we have obtained an opinion from an independent
investment banking firm, or another independent entity that commonly renders valuation opinions on the type of target business we are
seeking to acquire, and the approval of a majority of our disinterested independent directors that the business combination is fair to
our unaffiliated shareholders from a financial point of view.
62
Director
Independence
Nasdaq requires that a majority of our board must
be composed of “independent directors,” which is defined generally as a person other than an executive officer or employee
of the company or its subsidiaries or any other individual having a relationship, which, in the opinion of the company’s board of
directors would interfere with the director’s exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director.
The board has determined that Mr. Murphy,
Mr. Fu and Mr. Shah are independent directors. Our independent directors may have regularly scheduled meetings at which only
independent directors are present in certain circumstances. Any affiliated transactions will be on terms no less favorable to us than
could be obtained from independent parties. Any affiliated transactions must be approved by a majority of our independent and disinterested
directors.

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 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
Silicon Valley Acquisition Corp.:
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Silicon Valley Acquisition Corp. (the “Company’) as of December 31, 2025, and the related statements of operations, changes in shareholders’ deficit and cash flows for the period from July 21, 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 July 21, 2025 (inception) through December 31, 2025, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's financial statements based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audit, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of 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 audit 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 audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
We have served as the Company's auditor since 2025.

1. DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS
Organization and General
Silicon Valley Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) was incorporated as a Cayman Islands exempted company on July 21, 2025 . The Company is a newly organized blank check company or special purpose acquisition company (“SPAC”), formed for the purpose of entering into a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses (the “Business Combination”). The Company has not selected any specific Business Combination target. Its efforts to identify a prospective target business will not be limited to a particular industry or geographic region.
As of December 31, 2025, the Company had not commenced any operations. All activity for the period from July 21, 2025 (date of inception) through December 31, 2025 relates to the Company’s formation, the initial public offering (as defined 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 completion of the Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company will generate non-operating income in the form of interest income from the proceeds derived from the initial public offering. The Company has selected December 31 as its fiscal year end.
Sponsor, Founder and Financing
The Company’s sponsor is Silicon Valley Acquisition sponsor LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “sponsor”). The registration statement for the Company’s initial public offering was declared effective on December 22, 2025. On December 24, 2025, the Company consummated the initial public offering of 20,000,000 units at $ 10.00 per unit (the “Units”), which is discussed in Note 3 (the “initial public offering”), generating gross proceeds of $ 200,000,000 . Each Unit consists of one share of the Company’s Class A ordinary shares (the “Public Shares”), $ 0.0001 par value and one-half of one redeemable warrant to purchase one Class A ordinary share (the “Public Warrants”). The Public Warrants will only be exercisable for whole shares at $ 11.50 per share.
Simultaneously with the closing of the initial public offering, the Company consummated the sale of an aggregate of 625,000 private placement units (the “private placement units”) to the sponsor and Clear Street LLC (“Clear Street”), as representative of the underwriters in the initial public offering (the “representative”), at a price of $ 10.00 per private placement unit, generating gross proceeds of $ 6,250,000 . Of the 625,000 private placement units, the sponsor purchased 425,000 private placement units and Clear Street purchased 200,000 private placement units. Each whole private placement warrant (the “Private Placement Warrant”) included in a private placement unit entitles the holder thereof to purchase one Class A ordinary share at $ 11.50 per share.
Transaction costs amounted to $ 12,502,955 , consisting of $ 4,000,000 of cash underwriting fees, $ 8,000,000 of deferred underwriting fees, and $ 502,955 of other offering costs.
The Trust Account
Upon the closing of the initial public offering on December 24, 2025, an amount of $ 200,000,000 ($ 10.00 per unit) from the net proceeds of the sale of the Units, and a portion of the proceeds of the sale of the private placement units, are held in a trust account (the “Trust Account”) and was invested only in either (i) 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 of 1940 which invest only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations, (ii) as uninvested cash, or (iii) an interest bearing bank demand deposit account or other accounts at a bank. Funds will remain in the Trust Account until the earlier of (i) the completion of the Business Combination or (ii) the distribution of the Trust Account as described below.
The Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association provides that, except for (x) interest income that may be released to the Company to pay taxes and (y) up to $ 100,000 to pay dissolution expenses, as discussed below, none of the funds held in the Trust Account will be released from the Trust Account until the earlier of: (1) the completion of the initial Business Combination within the required time period; (2) redemption of 100 % of the outstanding public shares if the Company has not completed an initial Business Combination within 24 months from the closing of the initial public offering; and (3) the redemption of any public shares properly tendered in connection with a shareholder vote to amend the amended and restated memorandum and articles of association (A) in a manner that would affect the substance or timing of the obligation to redeem 100 % of public shares if the Company does not complete its initial Business Combination within the required time period or (B) with respect to any other provision relating to the pre-business combination activity and related shareholders’ rights.
F- 7
Business Combination
The Company’s management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the initial public offering, although substantially all of the net proceeds of the initial public offering are intended to be generally applied toward consummating a Business Combination with (or acquisition of) a Target Business. As used herein, “Target Business” must be with one or more target businesses that together have a fair market value equal to at least 80 % of the balance in the Trust Account (less the deferred underwriting commissions and the taxes payable on interest earned) at the time the Company signs a definitive agreement in connection with the Business Combination. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully effect a Business Combination.
The Company, after signing a definitive agreement for a Business Combination, will either (i) seek shareholder approval of the Business Combination at a meeting called for such purpose in connection with which shareholders may seek to redeem their shares, regardless of whether they vote for or against the Business Combination, for cash equal to their pro rata share of the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account including interest (which interest shall be net of taxes payable) or (ii) provide shareholders with the opportunity to have their shares redeemed by the Company by means of a tender offer (and thereby avoid the need for a shareholder vote) for an amount in cash equal to their pro rata share of the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, net of taxes payable, if any. The decision as to whether the Company will seek shareholder approval of the Business Combination or will allow shareholders to redeem their shares in a tender offer will be made by the Company, solely in its discretion, and will be based on a variety of factors such as the timing of the transaction and whether the terms of the transaction would otherwise require the Company to seek shareholder approval unless a vote is required by the Nasdaq rules. If the Company seeks shareholder approval, it will complete its Business Combination only if a majority of the outstanding shares are voted in favor of the Business Combination.
If the Company holds a shareholder vote or there is a tender offer for shares in connection with the Business Combination, a public shareholder will have the right to redeem its shares for an amount in cash equal to its pro rata share of the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account as of two business days prior to the consummation of the initial Business Combination, including interest (which interest shall be net of taxes payable, if any). As a result, such shares are recorded at redemption amount and classified as temporary equity upon the completion of the initial public offering. The amount in the Trust Account is $ 10.00 per public share ($ 200,000,000 held in the Trust Account divided by 20,000,000 public shares).
The Company has 24 months from December 24, 2025 to complete its initial Business Combination (the “Completion Window”). If the Company does not complete a Business Combination within this period of time, it shall (i) cease all operations except for the purposes of winding up; (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible, but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem the public shares for a per share pro rata portion of the Trust Account, including interest, but less taxes payable and up to $ 100,000 to pay dissolution expenses; and (iii) as promptly as possible following such redemption, dissolve and liquidate the balance of the Company’s net assets to its creditors and remaining shareholders, as part of its plan of dissolution and liquidation. The initial shareholders each entered into agreements with the Company, pursuant to which they agreed: (1) to waive their redemption rights with respect to their Founder Shares, private placement units and any Class A ordinary shares issuable upon conversion thereof in connection with the consummation of the initial Business Combination or a tender offer conducted prior to a Business Combination or in connection with it; and (2) to waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to their Founder Shares and private placement units if the Company fails to complete its initial Business Combination within 24 months from the closing of the initial public offering, 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 its initial Business Combination within the prescribed time frame.

2. SUMMARY OF 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 (“U.S. GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).
Liquidity
The Company’s liquidity needs up to December 24, 2025 had been satisfied through the loan under an unsecured promissory note from the sponsor of up to $ 300,000 (see Note 4). At December 31, 2025, the Company had cash of $ 1,600,031 , and working capital of $ 1,370,746 .
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 will 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. A portion of such Working Capital Loans may be convertible into private placement units of the post Business Combination entity at the option of the lender. The units would be identical to the private placement units. As of December 31, 2025, no such Working Capital Loans were outstanding.
In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“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. 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
The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”), and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.
Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period, which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of the Company’s financial 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.
F- 9
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 cash of $ 1,600,031 and did not have any cash equivalents as of December 31, 2025.
Investments Held in Trust Account
As of December 31, 2025, the assets held in the Trust Account, amounting to $ 200,119,181 , were held in money market funds.
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.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the balance sheet, primarily due to its short-term nature.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statement in conformity with U.S. 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. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Offering Costs Associated with the initial public offering
The Company complies with the requirements of the ASC 340-10-S99 and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) Topic 5A, “Expenses of Offering.” Offering costs consist principally of professional and registration fees that are related to the initial public offering. FASB ASC 470-20, “Debt with Conversion and Other Options,” addresses the allocation of proceeds from the issuance of convertible debt into its equity and debt components. The Company applies this guidance to allocate initial public offering proceeds from the Units between Class A ordinary shares and Public Warrants, using the residual method by allocating initial public offering proceeds first to assigned value of the Public Warrants and then to Class A ordinary shares. Offering costs allocated to the Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption were charged to temporary equity and offering costs allocated to the Public Warrants and private placement units, were charged to shareholders’ deficit as Public Warrants and private placement units, after management’s evaluation are accounted for under equity treatment.
Income Taxes
The Company follows the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes under Accounting Standards Codification 740, “Income Taxes” (“ASC 740”). Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that included the enactment date. 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 recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. There were no unrecognized tax benefits and no amounts accrued for interest and penalties as of December 31, 2025. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviation from its position.
F- 10
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, and the Company believes it is presently not subject to income taxes or income tax filing requirements in the United States. As such, the Company’s tax provision was zero for the period presented.
Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company evaluates its financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives in accordance with ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging”. For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value on the grant date and is then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the statement of operations. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is evaluated at the end of each reporting period. Derivative liabilities are classified in the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not net cash settlement or conversion of the instrument could be required within 12 months of the balance sheet date. The underwriters’ over-allotment option is deemed to be a freestanding financial instrument indexed on the contingently redeemable shares and is accounted for as a liability pursuant to ASC 480 since the option was not fully exercised at the time of the initial public offering.
Warrants
The Company accounted for the Public Warrants and the Private Placement Warrants (collectively “Warrants”) issued in connection with the initial public offering and the private placement in accordance with the guidance contained in FASB ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging”. Accordingly, the Company evaluated and classified the Warrant instruments under equity treatment at their assigned values. As of December 31, 2025, there were 10,000,000 Public Warrants and 312,500 Private Placement Warrants outstanding.
Class A 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, if there is a shareholder vote (A) to modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to allow redemption in connection with a Business Combination or to redeem 100 % of the Public Shares if the Company does not complete 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, or if there is a shareholder vote or tender offer in connection with the Company’s initial Business Combination. In accordance with ASC 480-10-S99, 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’ deficit 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:
Gross proceeds $ 200,000,000
Less:
Proceeds allocated to Public Warrants ( 3,000,000 )
Proceeds allocated to over-allotment ( 212,700 )
Allocated issuance costs ( 12,287,118 )
Plus:
Accretion of carrying value to redemption value 15,618,999
Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption, December 31, 2025 $ 200,119,181
F- 11
Net Loss per Ordinary Share
The Company complies with accounting and disclosure requirements of FASB ASC Topic 260, “Earnings Per Share.” The Company has two classes of ordinary shares, which are referred to as redeemable Class A ordinary shares and non-redeemable Class A and Class B ordinary shares. Net loss is shared pro rata between the two classes of ordinary shares. This presentation assumes a Business Combination as the most likely outcome. Net loss per ordinary share is calculated by dividing the net loss by the weighted average ordinary shares outstanding for the respective period.
The calculation of diluted loss per ordinary share does not consider the effect of the Warrants issued in connection with the (i) initial public offering, (ii) the exercise of the over-allotment option and (iii) Private Placement, since the average price of the ordinary shares for the period from July 21, 2025 (inception) through December 31, 2025, was less than the exercise price and therefore, the inclusion of such Warran under the treasury stock method would be anti-dilutive and the exercise is contingent upon the occurrence of future events.
The following table reflects the calculation of basic and diluted net loss per ordinary share (in dollars, except per share amounts):

F- 12
Share-Based Compensation
The Company records share-based compensation in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718, “Compensation-Share Compensation” (“ASC 718”), guidance to account for its share-based compensation. It applies a fair value-based method of accounting for an employee share option or similar equity instrument. The Company recognizes all forms of share-based payments at their fair value on the grant date, which are based on the estimated number of awards that are ultimately expected to be vest. Share-based payments are valued by multiplying the marketable value per Founder Share (defined in Note 4) by the probability of successful closing of an initial Business Combination. Grants of share-based payment awards issued to non-employees for services rendered have been recorded at the fair value of the share-based payment, which is the more readily determinable value. The grants are amortized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service periods, which is generally the vesting period. If an award is granted, but vesting does not occur, any previously recognized compensation cost is reversed in the period related to the termination of service.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, “Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures”. The amendments in this ASU require disclosures, on an annual and interim basis, of significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), as well as the aggregate amount of other segment items included in the reported measure of segment profit or loss. The ASU requires that a public entity disclose the title and position of the CODM and an explanation of how the CODM uses the reported measure(s) of segment profit or loss in assessing segment performance and deciding how to allocate resources. Public entities will be required to provide all annual disclosures currently required by Topic 280 in interim periods, and entities with a single reportable segment are required to provide all the disclosures required by the amendments in this ASU and existing segment disclosures in Topic 280. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted ASU 2023-07 on July 21, 2025, inception.
The Company does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.
3. INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING
Pursuant to the initial public offering on December 24, 2025, the Company sold 20,000,000 Units at a price of $ 10.00 per Unit for a total of $ 200,000,000 . Each Unit consists of one share of the Company’s Class A ordinary shares, $ 0.0001 par value and one-half of one Public Warrant to purchase one Class A ordinary share. The Public Warrants will only be exercisable for whole shares at $ 11.50 per share.
Warrants — As of December 31, 2025, there were 10,000,000 Public Warrants and 312,500 Private Placement Warrants outstanding. Each whole warrant entitles the registered holder to purchase one Class A ordinary share at a price of $ 11.50 per share, at any time commencing on the later of 12 months from the closing of the initial public offering and after the completion of the initial Business Combination. Pursuant to the warrant agreement, a warrant holder may exercise its warrants only for a whole number of Class A ordinary shares. This means that only a whole warrant may be exercised at any given time by a warrant holder. No fractional warrants will be issued upon separation of the Units and only whole warrants will trade. The warrants will expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the fifth anniversary of the completion of an initial Business Combination, or earlier upon redemption.
In addition, if (x) the Company issues additional Class A ordinary shares or equity-linked securities for capital raising purposes in connection with the closing of the initial Business Combination at an issue price or effective issue price of less than $ 9.20 per Class A ordinary share (with such issue price or effective issue price to be determined in good faith by the Board of Directors, and in the case of any such issuance to the sponsor or its affiliates, without taking into account any Founder Shares held by them prior to such issuance), (y) the aggregate gross proceeds from such issuances represent more than 60 % of the total equity proceeds, and interest thereon, available for the funding of the initial Business Combination on the date of the consummation of the initial Business Combination (net of redemptions), and (z) the volume weighted average trading price of the Class A ordinary shares during the 20 trading-day period starting on the trading day prior to the day on which the Company consummates its initial Business Combination (such price, the “Market Value”) is below $ 9.20 per share, the exercise price of the warrants will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 115 % of the greater of (i) the Market Value or (ii) the price at which the Company issues the additional Class A ordinary shares or equity-linked securities. On the exercise of any warrant, the exercise price will be paid directly to the Company and not placed in the Trust Account.
F- 13
The Company has agreed that as soon as practicable, but in no event later than 15 business days after the closing of the initial Business Combination, the Company will use its best efforts to file with the SEC a registration statement for the registration under the Securities Act of the warrant shares and thereafter use its best efforts to cause the registration statement to become effective and to maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement until the expiration of the warrants. No warrants will be exercisable for cash unless the Company has an effective and current registration statement covering the issuance of the warrant shares and a current prospectus relating thereto.
If a registration statement covering the issuance of the warrant shares is not effective within 90 days following the consummation of the initial Business Combination, warrant holders may nevertheless, until such time as there is such an effective registration statement and during any period when the Company shall have failed to maintain such an effective registration statement, exercise warrants on a cashless basis in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act. In this circumstance, each holder would pay the exercise price by surrendering warrants exercisable for the number of Class A ordinary shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the product of the number of Class A ordinary shares underlying such warrants and the difference between the exercise price of such warrants and the “fair market value” (defined below) by (y) the fair market value. The “fair market value” means the average reported last sale price of the Class A ordinary shares for the five trading days ending on the trading day prior to the date of exercise.
Redemption of Warrants: The Company may redeem the outstanding warrants:
● in whole and not in part;
● at a price of $ 0.01 per warrant;
● upon a minimum of 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption (the “30-day redemption period”); and
● if, and only if, the last reported sale price of the Class A ordinary shares equals or exceeds $ 18.00 per share (as adjusted for share splits, dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which the Company will send the notice of redemption to the warrant holders.
The Company will not redeem the warrants unless a registration statement under the Securities Act covering the issuance of the warrant shares underlying the warrants to be so redeemed is then effective and a current prospectus relating to those warrant shares is available throughout the 30-day redemption period, except if the warrants may be exercised on a cashless basis and such cashless exercise is exempt from registration under the Securities Act. If and when the warrants become redeemable by the Company, it may exercise its redemption right even if it is unable to register or qualify the underlying securities for sale under all applicable state securities laws.
If the foregoing conditions are satisfied and the Company issues a notice of redemption, each warrant holder may exercise his, her or its warrants prior to the scheduled redemption date. However, the price of the Class A ordinary shares may fall below the $ 18.00 trigger price (as adjusted) as well as the $ 11.50 exercise price (as adjusted) after the redemption notice is issued. The redemption criteria for the warrants have been established at a price which is intended to provide warrant holders a reasonable premium to the initial exercise price and provide a sufficient differential between the then-prevailing share price and the exercise price so that if the share price declines as a result of the redemption call, the redemption will not cause the share price to drop below the exercise price of the warrants. If the Company calls the warrants for redemption as described above, the management will have the option to require all holders that wish to exercise warrants to do so on a “cashless basis.” In making such determination, management will consider, among other factors, the Company’s cash position, the number of warrants that are outstanding and the dilutive effect on the shareholders of issuing the maximum number of warrant shares issuable upon exercise of outstanding warrants. In such event, the holder would pay the exercise price by surrendering the warrants for that number of Class A ordinary shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the product of the number of warrant shares underlying the warrants to be so exercised, and the difference between the exercise price of the warrants and the fair market value by (y) the fair market value.
No fractional Class A ordinary share will be issued upon redemption. If, upon redemption, a holder would be entitled to receive a fractional interest in a share, the Company will round down to the nearest whole number of the number of Class A ordinary shares to be issued to the holder.

4. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Founder Shares
On August 7, 2025, the sponsor purchased 7,665,900 Class B ordinary shares (the “Founder Shares”) from the Company for an aggregate purchase price of $ 25,000 , or $ 0.003 per share, of which up to 999,900 Founder Shares were subject to forfeiture depending on the extent to which the underwriters’ over-allotment option was exercised within the 45-day period following the closing of the initial public offering. The forfeiture would be adjusted to the extent that the over-allotment option was not exercised in full by the underwriters so that the sponsor would own 25 % of the Company’s issued and outstanding Class A and Class B ordinary shares after the initial public offering. On January 7, 2026, the underwriters purchased an additional 1,500,000 Units pursuant to the partial exercise of the over-allotment option, resulting in 499,950 Founder Shares that were no longer subject to forfeiture. On February 7, 2026, the over-allotment option to purchase the remaining 1,500,000 Units expired, resulting in the forfeiture of 499,950 Founder Shares. As of the date the financial statements were issued, 7,165,950 Founder Shares were issued and outstanding.
On December 1, 2025 and December 16, 2025, the sponsor granted membership interests equivalent to an aggregate of 150,000 Founder Shares to the independent directors of the Company for aggregate consideration of $ 450 , or approximately $ 0.003 per share. The membership interests in Founder Shares granted to the independent directors are in the scope of ASC 718. Under ASC 718, stock-based compensation associated with equity-classified awards is measured at fair value on the assignment date. The Founder Shares have an aggregate fair value of $ 346,500 , or $ 2.31 per share. The membership interests in Founder Shares are subject to forfeiture, as 50 % of the subscription units will be automatically forfeited upon termination of service following the closing of the initial public offering and prior to the completion of a Business Combination. The Company recognized stock-based compensation expense of $ 346,500 on December 16, 2025. The Company established the fair value of Founder Shares using Monte Carlo Simulation Model prepared by a third party valuation firm, which takes into consideration the following market assumptions; (i) implied share price of $ 9.85 , (ii) probability of De-SPAC and instrument-specific market adjustment of 27.0 %, and (iii) discount for lack of marketability of 13 %. The Founder Shares are classified as Level 3 at the measurement date due to the use of unobservable inputs, and other risk factors.
Private Placement Units
Simultaneously with the closing of the initial public offering, the sponsor purchased an aggregate of 425,000 private placement units at a price of $ 10.00 per private placement unit in a private placement for an aggregate purchase price of $ 4,250,000 . Clear Street purchased an aggregate of 200,000 private placement units at a price of $ 10.00 per unit in a private placement for an aggregate purchase price of $ 2,000,000 . On January 7, 2026, the Company consummated the private placement of an additional 30,000 private placement units to Clear Street at a price of $ 10.00 per unit, generating gross proceeds of $ 300,000 .
A portion of the purchase price of the private placement units was added to the proceeds of initial public offering held in the Trust Account. If the initial Business Combination is not completed within 24 months from the closing of the initial public offering, 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).
Promissory Note — Related Party
On August 7, 2025, the sponsor agreed to loan the Company an aggregate of up to $ 300,000 to be used for a portion of the expenses of the initial public offering. The loan was non-interest bearing, payable at the earlier of March 31, 2026 or the closing of the initial public offering. The Company had borrowed $ 161,544 under the promissory note, which was repaid as of December 31, 2025. Borrowings under the note are no longer available.
F- 15
Due to sponsor
As of December 31, 2025, the Company owed the sponsor an aggregate amount of $ 30,925 for the remaining outstanding due to offering and operational costs. The amounts are due on demand.

7. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received for sale of an asset or paid for transfer of a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. U.S. GAAP establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). These tiers include:
● Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical instruments in active markets;
● Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable such as quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and
● Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable. In some circumstances, the inputs used to measure fair value might be categorized within different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In those instances, the fair value measurement is categorized in its entirety in the fair value data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions, such as valuations derived from valuation techniques in hierarchy based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
The over-allotment option was accounted for as a liability in accordance with ASC 815-40 and was presented within liabilities on the balance sheet. The over-allotment option liability is measured at fair value at inception and on a recurring basis, with changes in fair value presented within changes in fair value of over-allotment option liability in the statement of operations.
F- 17
The Company used a Black-Scholes model to value the over-allotment option. The over-allotment option liability was classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy at the measurement dates due to the use of unobservable inputs inherent in pricing models are assumptions related to expected share-price volatility, expected life and risk-free interest rate. The Company estimates the volatility of its ordinary shares based on historical volatility that matches the expected remaining life of the option. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury zero-coupon yield curve on the grant date for a maturity similar to the expected remaining life of the option. The expected life of the option is assumed to be equivalent to their remaining contractual term.
The key inputs into the Black-Scholes model were as follows at initial measurement and remeasurement of the over-allotment option:
December 31,
2025 December 24,
2025
Volatility 2.5 % 3.2 %
Expected term (years) 0.12 0.12
Expected volatility 3.8 % 3.7 %
Exercise price $ 10.00 $ 10.00
Fair value of over-allotment unit $ 0.06 $ 0.07
The fair value of the Public Warrants is $ 3,000,000 or $ 0.30 per public warrant. The fair value of Public Warrants was determined using Monte Carlo Simulation Model. The Public Warrants have been classified within shareholders’ deficit and will not require remeasurement after issuance. The following table presents the quantitative information regarding market assumptions used in the level 3 valuation of the public warrants:
December 24,
2025
Volatility 2.5 %
Risk free rate (Continuous) 3.90 %
Stock price $ 9.85
Expected term to De-SPAC (Years) 2.0
Probability of De-SPAC and market adjustment 27.0 %
At December 31, 2025, assets held in the Trust Account were comprised of $ 200,119,181 in money market funds.
The following table presents information about the Company’s assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis at December 31, 2025 and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation inputs the Company utilized to determine such fair value:
Description Level December 31,
2025
Assets:
Investments held in Trust Account – U.S. Treasury Securities Money Market Fund 1 $ 200,119,181
Liability

8. SEGMENT INFORMATION
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 CODM, or group, in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance.
The Company’s CODM has been identified as the Chief Financial Officer , who reviews the assets, operating results, and financial metrics for the Company as a whole to make decisions about allocating resources and assessing financial performance. Accordingly, management has determined that the Company only has one reportable segment.
F- 18
The CODM assesses performance for the single segment and decides how to allocate resources. 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 $ 1,600,031
Investments held in Trust Account $ 200,119,181
The CODM reviews the position of total assets to assess if the Company has sufficient resources available to discharge its liabilities. The CODM is provided with details of cash and liquid resources available with the Company.
For the
period from
July 21,
2025
(inception)
Through
December 31,
2025
Formation, general, and administrative costs $ ( 139,654 )
Share-based compensation expenses $ ( 346,500 )
Interest earned on investments held in Trust Account $ 119,181
Formation, general, and administrative costs are reviewed and monitored by the CODM to manage and forecast cash to ensure enough capital is available to complete a Business Combination or similar transaction within the Completion Window. The CODM also reviews formation, general, and administrative costs and share-based compensation expenses to manage, maintain and enforce all contractual agreements to ensure costs are aligned with all agreements and budget. Formation, general, and administrative costs, as reported on the statement of operations, are the significant segment expenses provided to the CODM on a regular basis.
The CODM reviews interest earned on investments held in Trust Account to measure and monitor shareholder value and determine the most effective strategy of investment with the Trust Account funds while maintaining compliance with the Trust Agreement.
