SIZZLE ACQUISITION CORP. II
NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 2025
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1. DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS
OPERATIONS
Sizzle Acquisition Corp. II (the “Company”)
is a blank check company incorporated as a Cayman Islands exempted company on July 8, 2024 . The Company was incorporated for the purpose
of effecting a merger, amalgamation, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination
with one or more businesses (the “Business Combination”). The Company has not selected any specific Business Combination target
and the Company has not, nor has anyone on its behalf, engaged in any substantive discussions, directly or indirectly, with any Business
Combination target with respect to an initial Business Combination with the Company.
As of March 31, 2025, the Company had not commenced
any operations. All activity for the period from July 8, 2024 (inception) through March 31, 2025 relates to the Company’s formation
and the initial public offering (the “Initial Public Offering”), which is described below. The Company will not generate any
operating revenues until after the completion of its initial Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company will generate non-operating
income in the form of interest income on investments from the proceeds derived from the Initial Public Offering. The Company has selected
December 31 as its fiscal year end.
The IPO Registration Statement was declared effective
on April 1, 2025. On April 3, 2025, the Company consummated the Initial Public Offering of 23,000,000 Units, which includes the full exercise
by the underwriters of their Over-Allotment Option in the amount of 3,000,000 Option Units at $ 10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds
of $ 230,000,000 . Each Unit consists of one Public Share and one Public Right.
Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial
Public Offering, the Company consummated the sale of 600,000 Private Placement Units at a price of $ 10.00 per Private Placement Unit,
in a Private Placement to the Sponsor and Cantor, generating gross proceeds of $ 6,000,000 . Each Private Placement Unit consists of one
Private Placement Share and one Private Placement Right. Of those 600,000 Private Placement Units, the Sponsor purchased 400,000 Private
Placement Units and Cantor purchased 200,000 Private Placement Units.
Transaction costs amounted to $ 15,554,267 , consisting
of $ 4,000,000 of cash underwriting fee, $ 10,950,000 of deferred underwriting fee, and $ 604,267 of other offering costs.
The Company’s Management has broad discretion
with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and the Private Placement Units, although
substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be generally applied toward consummating a Business Combination (less deferred underwriting
commissions).
The Company’s 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 underwriting discounts held 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. 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 April 3, 2025, an amount of $ 230,000,000 ($ 10.00 per Unit) from the net proceeds of the sale of the Units and the Private Placement
Units, was placed in the trust account (the “Trust Account”), with Continental acting as trustee. The funds are initially
to be invested only 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 the Company might be deemed to be an investment company for purposes of the Investment Company Act, which risk
increases the longer that the Company holds investments in the Trust Account, the Company may, at any time (based on Management Team’s
ongoing assessment of all factors related to the potential status under the Investment Company Act), instruct the trustee to liquidate
the investments held in the Trust Account and instead to hold the funds in the Trust Account in cash or in an interest bearing demand
deposit account at a bank. Except with respect to interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account that may be released to the Company
to pay its taxes, 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 Company’s initial Business Combination, (ii) the redemption
of the Company’s Public Shares if the Company is unable to complete the initial Business Combination within the Combination Period,
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 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 Combination Period 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.
5
The Company will provide the Company’s Public
Shareholders with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares upon the completion of the initial Business Combination
either (i) in connection with a general meeting called to approve the initial Business Combination or (ii) without a shareholder vote
by means of a tender offer. The decision as to whether the Company will seek shareholder approval of a proposed initial Business Combination
or conduct a tender offer will be made by the Company, solely in its discretion. The Public Shareholders will be entitled to redeem their
shares at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account calculated as of two
business days prior to the consummation of the initial Business Combination, including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust
Account (less taxes payable), divided by the number of then outstanding Public Shares. The amount in the Trust Account is initially valued
at $ 10.00 per Public Share.
The Ordinary Shares subject to possible redemption
were recorded at a redemption value and classified as temporary equity upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering, in accordance
with ASC 480.
The Company will have only the duration of the
Combination Period to complete the initial Business Combination. However, if the Company is unable to complete its initial Business Combination
within the Combination Period, 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 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, Private
Placement Shares and Public Shares in connection with the completion of the initial Business Combination; (ii) waive their redemption
rights with respect to their Founder Shares, Private Placement 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 and Private Placement Shares if the Company fails to complete the initial Business Combination
within the Combination Period, 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 Combination Period and to liquidating
distributions from assets outside the Trust Account; and (iv) 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) in
favor of an initial Business Combination (except that any Public Shares such parties may purchase in compliance with the requirements
of Rule 14e-5 under the Exchange Act would not be voted in favor of approving the Business Combination transaction).
The Sponsor has agreed that it will be liable
to the Company if and to the extent any claims by a third party for services rendered or products sold to the Company, or a prospective
target business with which the Company has entered into a written letter of intent, confidentiality or other similar agreement or Business
Combination agreement, reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account to below the lesser of (i) $ 10.00 per Public Share and (ii) the
actual amount per Public Share held in the Trust Account as of the date of the liquidation of the Trust Account, if less than $ 10.00 per
share due to reductions in the value of the trust assets, less taxes payable, provided that such liability will not apply to any claims
by a third party or prospective target business who executed a waiver of any and all rights to the monies held in the Trust Account (whether
or not such waiver is enforceable) nor will it apply to any claims under the Company’s indemnity of the underwriters of the Initial
Public Offering against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act. 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 unaudited condensed financial
statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form
10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X of the SEC. Certain information or footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements
prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC for interim financial
reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of financial position,
results of operations, or cash flows. In the opinion of Management, the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements include
all adjustments, consisting of a normal recurring nature, which are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, operating
results and cash flows for the periods presented.
The accompanying unaudited condensed financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s prospectus for its Initial Public Offering as filed with the SEC on
April 2, 2025, as well as the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K, as filed with the SEC on April 9, 2025. The interim results
for the three months ended March 31, 2025, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31,
2025 or for any future periods.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company’s liquidity needs up to March
31, 2025 had been satisfied through the loan under an unsecured IPO Promissory Note from the Sponsor of up to $ 500,000 (see Note 5). As
of March 31, 2025, the Company had no cash and a working capital deficit of $ 360,144 .
Subsequent to the quarterly period covered by this Report, on April 3,
2025, the Company consummated the Initial Public Offering of 23,000,000 Units, which includes the full exercise by the underwriters of
their Over-Allotment Option in the amount of 3,000,000 Option Units, at $ 10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $ 230,000,000 . Simultaneously
with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the sale of 600,000 Private Placement Units to the Sponsor and
Cantor, at a price of $ 10.00 per Private Placement Unit, generating gross proceeds of $ 6,000,000 . Of those 600,000 Private Placement Units,
the Sponsor purchased 400,000 Private Placement Units and Cantor purchased 200,000 Private Placement Units.
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 are not obligated to, provide the Company with Working Capital Loans. If the Company completes a Business
Combination, the Company would repay such loaned amounts at that time. Up to $ 1,500,000 of such Working Capital Loans may be converted
into units of the post-Business Combination entity at a price of $ 10.00 per unit. The units would be identical to the Private Placement
Units. As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company had no borrowings under the Working Capital Loans.
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 upon the receipt of the amount due from Sponsor (see Note 9), the Company has sufficient funds
to finance the working capital needs of the Company within one year from the date of issuance of the unaudited condensed financial statements.
Emerging Growth Company
The Company is an “emerging growth company,”
as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the JOBS Act, and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various
reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited
to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure
obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding
a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.
Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts
emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that
is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered
under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company
can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but
any such election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that
when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging
growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison
of the Company’s financial statements with another public company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth
company which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting
standards used.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the unaudited condensed financial
statements in conformity with GAAP requires Management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited condensed financial statements and the reported
amounts of expenses during the reporting period.
Making estimates requires Management to exercise
significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances
that existed at the date of the unaudited condensed financial statements, which Management considered in formulating its estimate, could
change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from those
estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all short-term investments
with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. The Company had no cash and cash equivalents
as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024.
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. As of March 31, 2025, the Company has
not experienced losses on these accounts and Management believes the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such accounts.
7
Deferred Offering Costs
The Company complies with the requirements of the ASC 340-10-S99 and SEC
Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 5A, “Expenses of Offering.” Offering costs consist principally of professional and registration
fees that are related to the Initial Public Offering. FASB ASC 470-20, “Debt with Conversion and Other Options,” addresses
the allocation of proceeds from the issuance of convertible debt into its equity and debt components. The Company applies this guidance
to allocate Initial Public Offering proceeds from the Units between Class A Ordinary Shares and Rights, using the residual method by allocating
Initial Public Offering proceeds first to the assigned value of the Rights and then to the Class A Ordinary Shares. Subsequently, in conjunction
with the Initial Public 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 shareholder’s deficit, 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 ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurement,” approximates the carrying
amounts represented in the accompanying condensed balance sheets, primarily due to their short-term nature.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under ASC
Topic 740, “Income Taxes,” which requires an asset and liability approach to financial accounting and reporting for income
taxes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed for differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets
and liabilities that will result in future taxable or deductible amounts, based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods
in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred
tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.
ASC Topic 740 prescribes a recognition threshold
and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in
a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by taxing
authorities. The Company’s Management determined that the Cayman Islands is the Company’s major tax jurisdiction. The Company
recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. As of March 31, 2025 and December
31, 2024, there were no unrecognized tax benefits and no amounts accrued for interest and penalties. The Company is currently not aware
of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviation from its position.
The Company is considered to be an exempted Cayman
Islands company with no connection to any other taxable jurisdiction and is presently not subject to income taxes or income tax filing
requirements in the Cayman Islands or the United States. As such, the Company’s tax provision was zero for the period presented.
Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company evaluates its financial instruments to determine if such instruments
are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives in accordance with ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and
Hedging.” For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded
at its fair value on the grant date and is then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the condensed
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 sheets 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 will be accounted for as a liability pursuant to ASC 480 if not fully exercised at the time of
the Initial Public Offering.
Rights
The Company accounted for the Public 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.
Net Loss per Ordinary Share
Net loss per Ordinary Share is computed by dividing
net loss by the weighted average number of Ordinary Shares outstanding during the period, excluding Ordinary Shares subject to forfeiture.
Weighted average shares were reduced for the effect of an aggregate of 1,000,000 Class B Ordinary Shares that are subject to forfeiture
if the Over-Allotment Option is not exercised by the underwriters (see Note 7). As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company
did not have any dilutive securities and other contracts that could, potentially, be exercised or converted into Ordinary Shares and then
share in the earnings of the Company. As a result, diluted loss per ordinary share is the same as basic loss per ordinary share for the
period presented.
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 defines 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 vest. Grants of share-based payment awards issued to non-employees for services rendered are
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 Accounting Standards
Update (“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 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 8, 2024, date of its incorporation.
Management does not believe that any other recently
issued, but not effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s unaudited condensed
financial statements.
NOTE 3. INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING
Pursuant to the Initial Public Offering on April
3, 2025, the Company sold 23,000,000 Units, which includes the full exercise by the underwriters of their Over-Allotment Option amounting
to 3,000,000 Option Units, at a purchase price of $ 10.00 per Unit. Each 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 and Cantor purchased an aggregate of 600,000 Private Placement Units at a price of $ 10.00 per Private Placement
Unit in a Private Placement. Each Private Placement Unit consists of one Private Placement Share and one Private Placement Right. Of those
600,000 Private Placement Units, the Sponsor purchased 400,000 Private Placement Units and Cantor purchased 200,000 Private Placement
Units. The Private Placement Units are identical to the Units sold in Initial Public Offering, subject to certain limited exceptions.
NOTE 5. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Founder Shares
On July 16, 2024, the Sponsor made a capital contribution
of $ 25,000 , or approximately $ 0.003 per share, for which the Company issued 7,666,667 Founder Shares to the Sponsor. Up to 1,000,000 of
the Founder Shares were to be surrendered by the Sponsor for no consideration depending on the extent to which the underwriters’
Over-Allotment Option is exercised. On April 3, 2025, the underwriters exercised their Over-Allotment Option in full as part of the closing
of the Initial Public Offering. As such, the 1,000,000 Founder Shares are no longer subject to forfeiture.
On March 27, 2025, the Sponsor granted membership interests equivalent
to an aggregate of 140,000 Founder Shares to the three independent directors of the Company in exchange for their services as independent
directors through the Company’s initial Business Combination. The Founder Shares, represented by such membership interests, will
remain with the Sponsor if the holder of such membership interests is no longer serving the Company prior to the 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 140,000 Founder Shares represented by such membership interests assigned
to the holders of such interests on March 27, 2025 was $ 206,780 or $ 1.477 per share. The Company established the initial fair value of
the Founder Shares on March 27, 2025, the date of the grant agreement, using a calculation prepared by a third party valuation team which
takes into consideration the market adjustment of 15.0 %, a risk free rate of 4.28 % and a stock price of $ 9.85 . 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 March 31, 2025, the Company determined
that the initial Business Combination is not considered probable and therefore no compensation expense has been recognized.
The Company’s Initial Shareholders have agreed not to transfer, assign
or sell any of their Founder Shares and any Class A Ordinary Shares issued upon conversion thereof until the earlier to occur of (i) six
months after the completion of the initial Business Combination or (ii) the date on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger,
share exchange or other similar transaction after the initial Business Combination that results in all of the Company’s shareholders
having the right to exchange their Class A Ordinary Shares for cash, securities or other property. Any permitted transferees will be subject
to the same restrictions and other agreements of the Company’s Initial Shareholders with respect to any Founder Shares (the “Lock-up”).
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if (1) the closing price of the Class A Ordinary Shares equals or exceeds $ 12.00 per share (as adjusted
for share subdivisions, share capitalizations, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30 -trading
day period commencing after the initial Business Combination or (2) if the Company consummates a transaction after the initial Business
Combination which results in the Company’s shareholders having the right to exchange their shares for cash, securities or other
property, the Founder Shares will be released from the Lock-up.

IPO Promissory Note — Related Party
The Sponsor had agreed to loan the Company an
aggregate of up to $ 500,000 to be used for a portion of the expenses of the Initial Public Offering. The loan was non-interest bearing,
unsecured and due at the earlier of June 30, 2025 or the closing of the Initial Public Offering. As of March 31, 2025 and December 31,
2024, the Company had $ 261,705 and $ 121,550 , respectively, outstanding borrowings under the Note. On April 4, 2025, subsequent to the
closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company repaid the total outstanding balance of the Note (see Note 9). Borrowings against
this note are no longer permitted.
Administrative Services Agreement
The Company entered into an agreement with VO
Sponsor II Management, LLC, the managing member of the Sponsor, commencing on April 1, 2025 through the earlier of the Company’s
consummation of initial Business Combination and its liquidation, to pay an aggregate of $ 15,000 per month for office space, utilities,
and secretarial and administrative support services.
Working Capital Loans
In order to finance transaction costs in connection
with a Business Combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor or certain of the Company’s officers and directors may,
but are not obligated to, provide the Company with 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 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. As of March
31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, no such Working Capital Loans were outstanding.
NOTE 6. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Risks and Uncertainties
The Company’s results of operations and
its ability to complete an initial Business Combination may be adversely affected by various factors that could cause economic uncertainty
and volatility in the financial markets, many of which are beyond the Company’s control. The Company’s results of operations
and its ability to consummate an initial Business Combination could be impacted by, among other things, downturns in the financial markets
or in economic conditions, increases in oil prices, inflation, fluctuations in interest rates, increases in tariffs, supply chain disruptions,
declines in consumer confidence and spending, public health considerations, and geopolitical instability, such as the military conflicts
in Ukraine and the Middle East. The Company cannot at this time predict the likelihood of one or more of the above events, their duration
or magnitude or the extent to which they may negatively impact the Company’s business and its ability to complete an initial Business
Combination.
Registration Rights
The holders of the Founder Shares, Private Placement Units (and its component
securities) issued in the Private Placement and that may be issued upon conversion of the Working Capital Loans will have registration
rights to require the Company to register a sale of any of the Company’s securities held by them and any other securities of the
Company acquired by them prior to the consummation of the initial Business Combination pursuant to a registration rights agreement signed
on the effective date of the Initial Public Offering. The holders of these securities are entitled to make up to three demands, excluding
short form demands, that the Company registers such securities. In addition, the holders have certain “piggyback” registration
rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to the completion of the initial Business Combination. The Company will
bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.
Underwriters’ Agreement
The underwriters have a 45-day option from the
date of the Initial Public Offering to purchase up to an additional 3,000,000 Option Units to cover over-allotments, if any. On April
3, 2025, the underwriters elected to fully exercise their Over-Allotment Option to purchase the Option Units at a price of $ 10.00 per
Unit.
The underwriters were entitled to a cash underwriting
discount of $ 4,000,000 ( 2.0 % of the gross proceeds of the Units offered in the Initial Public Offering, excluding any proceeds from Units
sold pursuant to the underwriters’ Over-Allotment Option), which was paid at the closing of the Initial Public Offering. Additionally,
the underwriters were entitled to a deferred underwriting discount of 4.5 % of the gross proceeds of the Initial Public Offering held in
the Trust Account other than those sold pursuant to the underwriters’ Over-Allotment Option and 6.5 % of the gross proceeds sold
pursuant to the underwriters’ Over-Allotment Option, $ 10,950,000 in the aggregate, payable upon the completion of the Company’s
initial Business Combination subject to the terms of the Underwriting Agreement.

NOTE 7. SHAREHOLDER’S DEFICIT
Preference Shares — The
Company is authorized to issue a total of 5,000,000 preference shares at par value of $ 0.0001 each. At March 31, 2025 and December 31,
2024, there were no shares of preferred 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. At March 31, 2025 and December
31, 2024, there were no shares of Class A Ordinary Shares issued or outstanding.
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. On July 16, 2024, the Company
issued 7,666,667 Class B Ordinary Shares to the Sponsor for $ 25,000 , or approximately $ 0.003 per share. The Founder Shares include an
aggregate of up to 1,000,000 shares subject to forfeiture if the Over-Allotment Option is not exercised by the underwriters in full. On
April 3, 2025, the Company consummated its Initial Public Offering, including the full exercise of the underwriters’ option to purchase
additional Units to cover the over-allotment, hence the 1,000,000 Class B Ordinary Shares were no longer subject to forfeiture.
The Founder Shares will automatically convert into Class A Ordinary Shares
concurrently with or immediately following the consummation of the initial Business Combination or earlier at the option of the holder
on a one-for-one basis, subject to adjustment for share subdivisions, share capitalizations, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the
like, and subject to further adjustment as provided herein. In the case that additional Class A Ordinary Shares, or any other equity-linked
securities, are issued or deemed issued in excess of the amounts sold in this offering and related to or in connection with the closing
of the initial Business Combination, the ratio at which Class B Ordinary Shares convert into Class A Ordinary Shares will be adjusted
(unless the holders of a majority of the outstanding Class B Ordinary Shares agree to waive such adjustment with respect to any such issuance
or deemed issuance) so that the number of Class A Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion of all Class B Ordinary Shares will equal,
in the aggregate, 25 % of the sum of (i) the total number of all Ordinary Shares outstanding upon the completion of this offering (including
any Class A Ordinary Shares issued pursuant to the underwriters’ Over-Allotment Option and excluding the securities underlying the
Share Rights and the Private Placement Units), 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 Company’s officers or directors upon conversion of Working Capital Loans) minus (iii) any redemptions of Class
A Ordinary Shares by Public Shareholders in connection with an initial Business Combination; provided that such conversion of Founder
Shares will never occur on a less than one-for-one basis.
Holders of record of the Company’s Class
A Ordinary Shares and Class B Ordinary Shares are entitled to one vote for each share held on all matters to be voted on by shareholders.
Unless specified in the Amended and Restated 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, and pursuant to the Amended and Restated Articles, such actions include amending the Company’s 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 Company’s 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 the Company 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.
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-tenth (1/10)
of one Ordinary Share upon consummation of the initial 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 law. 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 his, her or its Rights in order to receive the one-tenth
(1/10) of one Ordinary Share underlying each Right upon consummation of the initial Business Combination. If the Company is unable to
complete the initial Business Combination within the required time period and the Company will redeem 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. 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 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 operating 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 condensed statement of operations as net
income or loss. When evaluating the Company’s performance and making key decisions regarding resource allocation the CODM reviews
several key metrics, which include the following:
For the Three
Months ended
March 31,
2025
General and administrative costs
$ 42,127
General and formation costs 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 Combination Period. The CODM also reviews general and formation costs to manage, maintain and enforce
all contractual agreements to ensure costs are aligned with all agreements and budget.
NOTE 9. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
The Company evaluated subsequent events and
transactions that occurred after the balance sheets date up to May 15, 2025, the date that the unaudited condensed financial
statements were issued. Based upon this review, other than as described below, the Company did not identify any subsequent events
that would have required adjustment or disclosure in the unaudited condensed financial statements.
On April 3, 2025, the Company consummated the
Initial Public Offering of 23,000,000 Units, which includes the full exercise by the underwriters of their Over-Allotment Option in the
amount of 3,000,000 Option Units, at $ 10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $ 230,000,000 . Simultaneously with the closing of the
Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the sale of 600,000 Private Placement Units to the Sponsor and Cantor, at a price of
$ 10.00 per Private Placement Unit, generating gross proceeds of $ 6,000,000 . Of those 600,000 Private Placement Units, the Sponsor purchased
400,000 Private Placement Units and Cantor purchased 200,000 Private Placement Units.
On April 3, 2025, in connection with the closing
of the Initial Public Offering, the underwriters were paid a cash underwriting discount of $ 4,000,000 ( 2.0 % of the gross proceeds of the
Units offered in the Initial Public Offering, excluding any proceeds from Units sold pursuant to the underwriters’ Over-Allotment
Option). In addition, the underwriters were entitled to a deferred underwriting discount of 4.5 % of the gross proceeds of the Initial
Public Offering held in the Trust Account other than those sold pursuant to the underwriters’ Over-Allotment Option and 6.5 % of
the gross proceeds sold pursuant to the underwriters’ Over-Allotment Option, $ 10,950,000 in the aggregate, payable upon the completion
of the Company’s initial Business Combination subject to the terms of the Underwriting Agreement.
On April 4, 2025, subsequent to the closing of the Initial Public Offering,
the Company repaid all outstanding amounts under the IPO Promissory Note. Borrowings under the Note are no longer available.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis
of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following discussion and analysis of the Company’s
financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto contained
elsewhere in this Report. Certain information contained in the discussion and analysis set forth below includes forward-looking statements
that involve risks and uncertainties.
Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
All statements other than statements of historical
fact included in this Report including, without limitation, statements under this Item regarding our financial position, business strategy
and the plans and objectives of Management for future operations, are forward-looking statements. When used in this Report, words such
as “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend” and similar expressions,
as they relate to us or our Management, identify forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements are based on the beliefs
of our Management, as well as assumptions made by, and information currently available to, our Management. Actual results could differ
materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors detailed in our filings with the SEC.
All subsequent written or oral forward-looking statements attributable to us or persons acting on our behalf are qualified in their entirety
by this paragraph.
The following discussion and analysis of our financial
condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed financial statements and the notes thereto
included in this Report under “Item 1. Financial Statements”.
Overview
We are a blank check company incorporated in the
Cayman Islands on July 8, 2024, formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization
or similar business combination with one or more businesses. We intend to effectuate our Business Combination using cash derived from
the proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and the sale of the Private Placement Units, our shares, debt or a combination of cash, shares
and debt.
We expect to continue to incur significant costs
in the pursuit of our acquisition plans. We cannot assure you that our plans to complete a Business Combination will be successful.
In 2024, the SEC adopted additional rules and
regulations relating to SPACs. The 2024 SPAC Rules require, among other matters, (i) additional disclosures relating to SPAC sponsors
and related persons; (ii) additional disclosures relating to SPAC Business Combination transactions; (iii) additional disclosures
relating to dilution and to conflicts of interest involving sponsors and their affiliates in connection with proposed Business Combination
transactions; (iv) additional disclosures regarding projections included in SEC filings in connection with proposed Business Combination
transactions; and (v) the requirement that both the SPAC and its target company be co-registrants in connection with registration
statements relating to proposed Business Combination transactions. In addition, the SEC’s adopting release provided guidance describing
circumstances in which a SPAC could become subject to regulation under the Investment Company Act, including its duration, asset composition,
business purpose, and the activities of the SPAC and its management team. The 2024 SPAC Rules may materially affect our ability to negotiate
and complete our initial Business Combination and may increase the costs and time related thereto.
We may seek to extend the Combination Period consistent
with applicable laws, regulations and stock exchange rules by amending our Amended and Restated Articles. Such an amendment would require
the approval of our Public Shareholders, who will be provided the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares in connection
with the vote on such approval. Such redemptions will decrease the amount held in our Trust Account and our capitalization, and may affect
our ability to maintain our listing on Nasdaq. In addition, the Nasdaq Rules currently require SPACs (such as us) to complete their initial
business combination in accordance with the Nasdaq 36-Month Requirement. If we do not meet the Nasdaq 36-Month Requirement, our securities
will likely be subject to a suspension of trading and delisting from Nasdaq. Our Sponsor may also, in its discretion, explore transactions
under which it would sell its interest in our Company to another sponsor entity, which may result in a change to our Management Team.
Results of Operations
We have neither engaged in any operations nor
generated any revenues to date. Our only activities from July 8, 2024 (inception) through March 31, 2025 were organizational activities,
those necessary to prepare for the Initial Public Offering, and identifying a target company for a Business Combination. We do not expect
to generate any operating revenues until after the completion of our Business Combination. Subsequent to the Initial Public Offering,
we generate non-operating income in the form of interest income on marketable securities held in the Trust Account. We incur expenses
as a result of being a public company (for legal, financial reporting, accounting and auditing compliance), as well as for due diligence
expenses.
For the three months ended March 31, 2025, we
had a net loss of $42,127, which consisted of general and administrative costs.
Factors That May Adversely Affect our Results
of Operations
Our results of operations and our ability to complete
an initial Business Combination may be adversely affected by various factors that could cause economic uncertainty and volatility in the
financial markets, many of which are beyond our control. Our results of operations and our ability to consummate an initial Business Combination
could be impacted by, among other things, downturns in the financial markets or in economic conditions, increases in oil prices, inflation,
fluctuations in interest rates, increases in tariffs, supply chain disruptions, declines in consumer confidence and spending, public health
considerations, and geopolitical instability, such as the military conflicts in Ukraine and the Middle East. We 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 our business
and our ability to complete an initial Business Combination.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Until the consummation of the Initial Public Offering,
our only source of liquidity was an initial purchase of Class B Ordinary Shares by the Sponsor, and loans from the Sponsor, which
were repaid subsequent to the closing of the Initial Public Offering.
Subsequent to the quarterly period covered by
this Report, on April 3, 2025, we consummated the Initial Public Offering of 23,000,000 Units, which includes the full exercise by the
underwriters of their Over-Allotment Option in the amount of 3,000,000 Option Units, at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of
$230,000,000. Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, we consummated the sale of 600,000 Private Placement Units
to the Sponsor and Cantor, at a price of $10.00 per Private Placement Unit, generating gross proceeds of $6,000,000. Of those 600,000
Private Placement Units, the Sponsor purchased 400,000 Private Placement Units and Cantor purchased 200,000 Private Placement Units.
Following the closing of the Initial Public Offering
and the Private Placement, a total of $230,000,000 was placed in the Trust Account. We incurred $15,554,267 of transaction costs, consisting
of $4,000,000 of cash underwriting fee, $10,950,000 of deferred underwriting fee, and $604,267 of other offering costs.
13
We intend to use substantially all of the funds
held in the Trust Account, including any amounts representing interest earned on the Trust Account (which interest shall be net of any
taxes payable and excluding deferred underwriting commissions), to complete our Business Combination. To the extent that our share capital
or debt is used, in whole or in part, as consideration to complete our Business Combination, the remaining proceeds held in the Trust
Account will be used as working capital to finance the operations of the target business or businesses, make other acquisitions and pursue
our growth strategies.
We intend to use the funds held outside the Trust
Account primarily to identify and evaluate target businesses, perform business due diligence on prospective target businesses, travel
to and from the offices, plants or similar locations of prospective target businesses or their representatives or owners, review corporate
documents and material agreements of prospective target businesses, and structure, negotiate and complete a Business Combination.
In order to finance transaction costs in connection
with a Business Combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor or certain of our officers and directors may, but are not obligated
to, provide us with the Working Capital Loans. If we complete a Business Combination, we would repay the 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
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 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.
We do not believe we will need to raise additional
funds in order to meet the expenditures required for operating our business. However, if our 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,
we may have insufficient funds available to operate our business prior to our initial Business Combination. Moreover, we may need to obtain
additional financing either to complete our Business Combination or because we become obligated to redeem a significant number of our
Public Shares upon completion of our Business Combination, in which case we may issue additional securities or incur debt in connection
with such Business Combination.
To mitigate the risk that we might be deemed to
be an investment company for purposes of the Investment Company Act, which risk increases the longer that we hold investments in the Trust
Account, we may, at any time, based on our Management team’s ongoing assessment of all factors related to our 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.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no obligations, assets or liabilities,
which would be considered off-balance sheet arrangements as of March 31, 2025. We do not participate in transactions that create relationships
with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, often referred to as variable interest entities, which would have been established
for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements. We have not entered into any off-balance sheet financing arrangements,
established any special purpose entities, guaranteed any debt or commitments of other entities, or purchased any non-financial assets.
Contractual Obligations
We do not have any long-term debt, capital lease
obligations, operating lease obligations or long-term liabilities, other than an agreement to pay VO Sponsor II Management, LLC, the managing
member of the Sponsor, a monthly fee of $15,000 for office space, utilities, and secretarial and administrative support services. We began
incurring these fees on April 1, 2025 and will continue to incur these fees monthly until the earlier of the completion of the Business
Combination and our liquidation.
The underwriters were entitled to a cash underwriting
discount of $4,000,000 (2.0% of the gross proceeds of the Units offered in the Initial Public Offering, excluding any proceeds from Units
sold pursuant to the underwriters’ Over-Allotment Option), which was paid at the closing of the Initial Public Offering. Additionally,
the underwriters are entitled to a deferred underwriting discount of 4.5% of the gross proceeds of the Initial Public Offering held in
the Trust Account other than those sold pursuant to the underwriters’ Over-Allotment Option and 6.5% of the gross proceeds sold
pursuant to the underwriters’ Over-Allotment Option, $10,950,000 in the aggregate, payable upon the completion of the Company’s
initial Business Combination subject to the terms of the Underwriting Agreement.
14
Critical Accounting Estimates and Policies
The preparation of the unaudited condensed financial
statements and related disclosures in conformity with GAAP requires Management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited condensed financial statements,
and income and expenses during the periods reported. Making estimates requires Management to exercise significant judgement. 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 unaudited condensed 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 materially differ from those estimates. As of March 31,
2025, we did not have any critical accounting estimates to be disclosed.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures
About Market Risk
We are a smaller reporting company as defined
by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and are not required to provide the information otherwise required under this Item.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Disclosure controls and procedures are controls
and other procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange
Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls
and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our
reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to Management, including our Chief Executive Officer
and Chief Financial Officer (together, the “Certifying Officers”), or persons performing similar functions, 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 March 31, 2025.
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.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial
Reporting
Not applicable.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
To the knowledge of our Management Team, there
is no material litigation currently pending or contemplated against us, any of our officers or directors in their capacity as such or
against any of our property.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
As a smaller reporting company under Rule 12b-2
of the Exchange Act, we are not required to include risk factors in this Report. For additional
risks relating to our operations, other than as set forth below, see the section titled “Risk Factors” contained in our IPO
Registration Statement. Any of these factors could result in a significant or material adverse effect on our results of operations or
financial condition. Additional risks could arise that may also affect our business or ability to consummate an initial Business Combination.
We may disclose changes to such risk factors or disclose additional risk factors from time to time in our future filings with the SEC.
Changes in international trade policies,
tariffs and treaties affecting imports and exports may have a material adverse effect on our search for an initial Business Combination
target or the performance or business prospects of a post-Business Combination company.
There have recently been significant changes to
international trade policies and tariffs affecting imports and exports. Any significant increases in tariffs on goods or materials or
other changes in trade policy could negatively affect our search for a target and/or our ability to complete our initial Business Combination.
Recently, the United States has implemented a
range of new tariffs and increases to existing tariffs. In response to the tariffs announced by the United States, other countries
have imposed, are considering imposing, and may in the future impose new or increased tariffs on certain exports from the United States.
There is currently significant uncertainty about the future relationship between the United States and other countries with respect to
trade policies, taxes, government regulations and tariffs, and we cannot predict whether, and to what extent, current tariffs will
continue or trade policies will change in the future.
Tariffs, or the threat of tariffs or increased
tariffs, could have a significant negative impact on certain businesses (either due to domestic businesses’ reliance on imported
goods or dependence on access to foreign markets, or foreign businesses’ reliance on sales into the United States). In addition,
retaliatory tariffs could have a significant negative impact on foreign businesses that rely on imports from the United States, and domestic
businesses that rely on exporting goods internationally. These tariffs and threats of tariffs and other potential trade policy changes
could negatively affect the attractiveness of certain initial Business Combination targets, or lead to material adverse effects on a post-Business
Combination company. Among other things, historical financial performance of companies affected by trade policies and/or tariffs may not
provide useful guidance as to the future performance of such companies, because future financial performance of those companies may be
materially affected by new United States tariffs or foreign retaliatory tariffs, or other changes to trade policies. The business prospects
of a particular target for a Business Combination could change even after we enter into a Business Combination agreement, as a result
of tariffs or the threat of tariffs that may have a material impact on that target’s business, and it may be costly or impractical for
us to terminate that Business Combination agreement. These factors could affect our selection of a Business Combination target.
We may not be able to adequately address the risks
presented by these tariffs or other potential trade policy changes. As a result, we may deem it costly, impractical or risky to complete
an initial Business Combination with a particular target or with a target in a particular industry or from a particular country. Consequently,
the pool of potential target companies may be reduced, which could impair our ability to identify a suitable target and to complete an
initial Business Combination. If we complete an initial Business Combination with such a target, the post-Business Combination company’s
operations and financial results could be adversely affected as a result of tariffs or changes to trade policies, which may cause
the market value of the securities of the post-Business Combination company to decline.
We may seek to extend the Combination Period,
which could reduce the amount held in our Trust Account and have adverse effects on our Company.
If we are unable to consummate our initial Business
Combination on or before April 3, 2027, we may seek shareholder approval to extend the Combination Period by amending our Amended and
Restated Articles. In such event, our Public Shareholders will be provided the opportunity to have all or a portion of their Public Shares
redeemed. Any redemptions will reduce the amount held in our Trust Account, the effect of which may adversely affect our ability to consummate
our initial Business Combination and may also impair our ability to maintain our Nasdaq listing.
16
We anticipate that our securities will be
suspended from trading on Nasdaq and delisted if we do not consummate our initial Business Combination within the Nasdaq 36-Month Requirement.
Any trading suspension or delisting could have a material adverse effect on the trading of our securities and may adversely affect our
ability to consummate an initial Business Combination.
Our IPO Registration Statement was declared effective
by the SEC on April 2, 2025 and our securities are currently listed on the Global Market tier of Nasdaq. Pursuant to our Amended and Restated
Articles, we have until April 3, 2027 to consummate our initial Business Combination.
Under the Nasdaq Rules, a SPAC’s Nasdaq-listed
securities will be immediately suspended from trading if the SPAC does not meet the Nasdaq 36-Month Requirement, and Nasdaq will, at such
point, commence delisting procedures. Although a SPAC can request a hearing before the hearing panel of Nasdaq (the “Hearing Panel”),
the scope of the Hearing Panel’s review is limited. If a SPAC completes a Business Combination after receiving a delisting determination
by the staff of the Listing Qualifications Department of Nasdaq (a “Staff Delisting Determination”) and/or demonstrates compliance
with all applicable initial listing requirements, the combined company can apply to list its securities on Nasdaq pursuant to the normal
application review process. The Nasdaq Rules contain a list of deficiencies that would immediately result in a Staff Delisting Determination,
which includes noncompliance with the Nasdaq 36-Month Requirement.
Accordingly, were we to amend our Amended and
Restated Articles to extend the date by which we are permitted to consummate our initial Business Combination, we would still need to
consummate our initial Business Combination on or prior to April 2, 2028 in order to avoid a suspension of our securities from trading
on and delisting from Nasdaq. If Nasdaq were to suspend our securities from trading and delist our securities, our securities could potentially
be quoted on an over-the-counter market. Even if our securities are then quoted on an over-the-counter market, our Nasdaq suspension and
delisting could have significant material adverse consequences, including:
● making our securities appear to be less attractive to potential target companies
than the securities of an exchange listed SPAC;
● limited availability of market quotations for our securities;
● reduced liquidity for our securities;
● the possibility that our Class A Ordinary Shares would be deemed “penny
stock,” which will require brokers trading in our Class A Ordinary Shares to adhere to more stringent rules and possibly result
in a reduced level of trading activity in the secondary trading market for our securities;
● limited news and analyst coverage; and
● decreased ability to issue additional securities or obtain additional financing
in the future.
In addition, if our securities are delisted from
Nasdaq, trading in our securities, and offers and sales of our securities by us, may be subject to state securities regulation and additional
compliance costs.
The share price of the post-Business Combination
company may be less than the Redemption Price (as defined below) of our Public Shares.
Each Unit sold in our Initial Public Offering
at an offering price of $10.00 per Unit consisted of one Public Share and one Public Right. Of the proceeds we received from the Initial
Public Offering and the Private Placement, $230,000,000 was placed in our Trust Account. We will provide our Public Shareholders the opportunity
to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares in connection with the completion of our initial Business Combination, and potentially
upon the occurrence of certain other events prior to our initial Business Combination. We expect that the pro rata redemption price in
any redemption will be approximately $10.00 per Public Share as of the date hereof (the “Redemption Price”), representing
a pro rata portion of our Trust Account without taking into account any interest or other income earned on such funds (less any withdrawals
from such interest or income for taxes paid), although the Redemption Price may be less in certain circumstances. As a result, Public
Shareholders who own our Public Shares on a redemption date can anticipate receiving the Redemption Price in connection with a redemption
for each Public Share that they choose to redeem.
There can be no assurance that, after our initial
Business Combination, our Public Shareholders would be able to sell their shares in the post-Business Combination company for the Redemption
Price, or any higher price. We have not, as yet, identified a target and are therefore unable to provide any assurances as to its financial
condition, business prospects or potential risks. It is therefore possible that the share price of the post-Business Combination company
may decline below the Redemption Price. In recent years, the share prices of many post-Business Combination companies have fallen
following a Business Combination. As a result, if our Public Shareholders continue to hold shares in the post-Business Combination company
following our initial Business Combination, we cannot assure our shareholders that the trading price of such shares will be greater than
the Redemption Price.
17
Certain agreements related to the Initial
Public Offering may be amended, or their provisions waived, without shareholder approval.
Certain of the agreements related to the Initial
Public Offering to which we are a party may be amended, or their provisions waived, without shareholder approval. Such agreements include
the (i) Underwriting Agreement, (ii) the Share Rights Agreement, (iii) the Registration Rights Agreement, (iv) the Private Placement Units
Purchase Agreements, and (v) the Administrative Services Agreement. These agreements contain various provisions that our Public Shareholders
might deem to be material. For example, our Share Rights Agreement and the Underwriting Agreement contain certain lock-up provisions with
respect to the Founder Shares and other securities held by our Initial Shareholders, Sponsor, officers and directors, subject to certain
exceptions. Amendments or waivers to such agreements would require the consent of the applicable parties thereto and, in certain cases,
the consent of the underwriters of the Initial Public Offering. Any such modification, such as an amendment to shorten lock-up restrictions,
may benefit our Initial Shareholders, Sponsor, officers and/or directors. Any such amendments would not require approval from our shareholders,
may result in the completion of our initial Business Combination that may not otherwise have been possible, and may have an adverse effect
on the value of an investment in our securities. For example, although we would not amend lock-up provisions to permit securities held
by Sponsor to be freely sold prior to our initial Business Combination, we may amend such provisions to permit them to be freely sold
after the Business Combination earlier than they would otherwise be permitted, which may have an adverse effect on the price of our securities.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities
and Use of Proceeds.
Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities
There were no sales of unregistered securities
during the quarterly period covered by this Report. However, simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, we consummated
the sale of 600,000 Private Placement Units to the Sponsor and Cantor, at a price of $10.00 per Private Placement Unit, generating gross
proceeds of $6,000,000. Of those 600,000 Private Placement Units, the Sponsor purchased 400,000 Private Placement Units and Cantor purchased
200,000 Private Placement Units.
Use of Proceeds
Following the closing
of our Initial Public Offering on April 3, 2025, a total of $230,000,000 comprised of $226,000,000 of the proceeds from the Initial Public
Offering (which amount includes $10,950,000 of the Deferred Fee) and $4,000,000 of the proceeds from the Private Placement, was placed
in a U.S.-based trust account maintained by Continental, acting as trustee. The proceeds held in the Trust Account may be invested by
the trustee only in U.S. government securities with a maturity of 185 days or less or in money market funds investing solely in U.S. government
treasury obligations and meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act. To mitigate the risk that we might
be deemed to be an investment company for purposes of the Investment Company Act, which risk increases the longer that we hold investments
in the Trust Account, we may, at any time (based on the 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.
The remaining proceeds
from the Initial Public Offering and the Private Placement are held outside the Trust Account. Such funds are being used primarily to
enable us to identify a target and to negotiate and consummate our initial Business Combination.
There has been no material
change in the planned use of the proceeds from our Initial Public Offering and the Private Placement as described in the IPO Registration
Statement. The specific investments in our Trust Account may change from time to time.
Item 3. Defaults Upon Senior Securities
None.
Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosures
Not applicable.
Item 5. Other Information
Trading Arrangements
During the quarterly period ended March 31, 2025,
none of our directors or officers (as defined in Rule 16a-1(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act) adopted or terminated any
“Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement” or any “non-Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement,” as each term is defined in Item 408(a)
of Regulation S-K.
