Unless specifically stated, this Quarterly Report
does not contain the risks associated with the proposed Obagi and Milk Business Combinations.
−Removed: We have identified material weaknesses in our
−Removed: internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2021.
−Removed: If we are unable to develop and maintain an effective system of internal
−Removed: control over financial reporting, we may not be able to accurately report our financial results in a timely manner, which may adversely
−Removed: affect investor confidence in us and materially and adversely affect our business and operating results.
−Removed: In connection with the preparation of the Company’s
−Removed: financial statements as of September 30, 2021, the Company reevaluated the classification of the Class A ordinary shares subject to possible
−Removed: After consultation with our independent registered public accounting firm, our management and our audit committee concluded
−Removed: that the previously issued financial statements as of March 18, 2021, March 31, 2021 and June 30, 2021 and for the periods from December
−Removed: 8, 2020 (inception) through January 12, 2021, from January 1, 2021 through March 31, 2021, and the three months and six months ended June
−Removed: 30, 2021 (the “Relevant Periods”) should be restated to report all Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption
−Removed: as temporary equity.
−Removed: As described elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on
−Removed: Form 10-Q, we identified a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting related to the accounting for the Company’s
−Removed: Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption.
−Removed: A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal
−Removed: control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial
−Removed: statements will not be prevented, or detected and corrected on a timely basis.
−Removed: As a result of this material weakness, and the material
−Removed: weakness related to the reclassification of our warrants and other accounting matters which resulted in the restatement of our audited
−Removed: opening balance sheet as of March 18, 2021, our management has concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective
−Removed: as of September 30, 2021.
−Removed: Effective internal controls are necessary for us to provide reliable financial reports and prevent fraud.
−Removed: have taken a number of measures to remediate the material weaknesses, and continue to evaluate steps to remediate the material weaknesses.
−Removed: However, these remediation measures may be time consuming and costly and there is no assurance that these initiatives will ultimately
−Removed: have the intended effects.
−Removed: If we are unable to remediate our material weaknesses in a timely manner or we identify additional material
−Removed: weaknesses, we may be unable to provide required financial information in a timely and reliable manner and we may incorrectly report financial
−Removed: If our financial statements are not filed on a timely basis, we could be subject to sanctions or investigations by Nasdaq,
−Removed: the SEC or other regulatory authorities.
−Removed: Failure to timely file would cause us to be ineligible to utilize short form registration statements
−Removed: on Form S-3 or Form S-4, which may impair our ability to obtain capital in a timely fashion to execute our business strategies or issue
−Removed: shares to effect an acquisition.
−Removed: If any of these events were to occur, it could have a material adverse effect on our business.
−Removed: In addition, the existence of material weaknesses
−Removed: or a significant deficiency in internal control over financial reporting could adversely affect our reputation or investor perceptions
−Removed: of us, which could have a negative effect on the trading price of our securities.
−Removed: We can provide no assurance that the measures we have
−Removed: taken and plan to take in the future will remediate the material weaknesses identified or that any additional material weaknesses or restatements
−Removed: of financial results will not arise in the future due to a failure to implement and maintain adequate internal control over financial
−Removed: In addition, even if we are successful in strengthening our controls and procedures, in the future those controls and procedures
−Removed: may not be adequate to prevent or identify irregularities or errors or to facilitate the fair presentation of our financial statements.
−Removed: We may face litigation and other risks as a
−Removed: result of the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting.
−Removed: As a result of such material weaknesses, the changes
−Removed: in accounting for the warrants and for Class A ordinary shares subject to redemption, and other matters raised or that may in the future
−Removed: be raised by the SEC, we face potential for litigation or other disputes which may include, among others, claims invoking the federal
−Removed: and state securities laws, contractual claims or other claims arising from the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial
−Removed: reporting and the preparation of our financial statements.
−Removed: As of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we have no knowledge
−Removed: of any such litigation or dispute.
−Removed: However, we can provide no assurance that such litigation or dispute will not arise in the future.
−Removed: Any such litigation or dispute, whether successful or not, could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations
−Removed: and financial condition or our ability to complete a business combination.
+Added: Global or regional conditions may adversely
+Added: affect our business and our ability to consummate our initial Business Combination.
+Added: Adverse changes in global or regional economic
+Added: conditions periodically occur, including recession or slowing growth, changes, or uncertainty in fiscal, monetary or trade policy, higher
+Added: interest rates, tighter credit, inflation, lower capital expenditures by businesses, increases in unemployment and lower consumer confidence
+Added: and spending.
+Added: Adverse changes in economic conditions can harm global business and adversely affect our ability to consummate our initial
+Added: Business Combination.
+Added: Such adverse changes could result from geopolitical and security issues, such as armed conflict and civil or military
+Added: unrest, political instability, human rights concerns and terrorist activity, catastrophic events such as natural disasters and public
+Added: health issues (including the COVID-19 pandemic), supply chain interruptions, new or revised export, import or doing-business regulations,
+Added: including trade sanctions and tariffs or other global or regional occurrences.
+Added: In particular, in response to Russia’s recent
+Added: invasion of Ukraine, the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (“NATO”) deployed additional military forces to eastern Europe,
+Added: and the United States, the European Union, and several other countries are imposing far-reaching sanctions and export control restrictions
+Added: on Russian entities and individuals, including the removal of certain financial institutions from the Society for Worldwide Interbank
+Added: Financial Telecommunication (SWIFT) payment system.
+Added: Although the length and impact of the ongoing military conflict in Ukraine is highly
+Added: unpredictable, the conflict could lead to market disruptions, including significant volatility in commodity prices, credit and capital
+Added: markets, as well as supply chain interruptions.
+Added: Additionally, Russian military actions and the resulting sanctions could adversely affect
+Added: the global economy and financial markets and lead to instability and lack of liquidity in capital markets, particularly if current or
+Added: new sanctions continue for an extended period of time or if geopolitical tensions result in expanded military operations on a global scale.
+Added: In addition, the recent invasion of Ukraine by Russia, and the impact of sanctions against Russia and the potential for retaliatory acts
+Added: from Russia, could result in increased cyberattacks against U.S.
+Added: Additionally, tensions between the United States
+Added: and China have led to increased tariffs and trade restrictions.
+Added: The United States has imposed economic sanctions on certain Chinese individuals
+Added: and entities and restrictions on the export of U.S.-regulated products and technology to certain Chinese technology companies.
+Added: other global and regional conditions may adversely impact our business and our ability to consummate our initial Business Combination.
+Added: Any of the foregoing factors may have the effect
+Added: of heightening many of the other risks described in the “Risk Factors” section of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
+Added: Changes in laws or regulations, or how such
+Added: laws or regulations are interpreted or applied, or a failure to comply with any laws and regulations, may adversely affect our business,
+Added: including our ability to negotiate and complete our initial Business Combination, and results of operations.
+Added: We are subject to laws and regulations enacted by national, regional
+Added: and local governments.
+Added: In particular, we are required to comply with certain SEC and other legal requirements, our Business Combination
+Added: may be contingent on our ability to comply with certain laws and regulations and any post-business combination company may be subject
+Added: to additional laws and regulations.
+Added: Compliance with, and monitoring of, applicable laws and regulations may be difficult, time consuming
+Added: A failure to comply with applicable laws or regulations, as interpreted and applied, could have a material adverse effect
+Added: on our business, including our ability to negotiate and complete our initial Business Combination, and results of operations.
+Added: those laws and regulations and their interpretation and application may change from time to time, including as a result of changes in
+Added: economic, political, social and government policies, and those changes could have a material adverse effect on our business, including
+Added: our ability to negotiate and complete our initial Business Combination, and results of operations.
+Added: On March 30, 2022, the SEC issued proposed rules that would, among
+Added: other items, impose additional disclosure requirements in business combination transactions involving Special Purpose Acquisition
+Added: Companies (“SPACs”) and private operating companies;
+Added: amend the financial statement requirements applicable to business combination
+Added: transactions involving such companies;
+Added: update and expand guidance regarding the general use of projections in SEC filings, as well as
+Added: when projections are disclosed in connection with proposed business combination transactions;
+Added: increase the potential liability of certain
+Added: participants in proposed business combination transactions;
+Added: and impact the extent to which SPACs could become subject to regulation under
+Added: the Investment Company Act of 1940.
+Added: These rules, if adopted, whether in the form proposed or in revised form, may materially adversely
+Added: affect our business, including our ability to negotiate and complete our initial Business Combination and may increase the costs and time
+Added: related thereto.
