Previous wording

As of March 31, 2026, we had cash of $281,505 outside our trust account. 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.

Current wording

As of June 30, 2026, we had cash of $226,626 outside our trust account. 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.

Previous wording

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, undertakingin-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 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 consummation of our Business Combination, in which case we may issue additional securities or incur debt in connection with such Business Combination. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the issuance date of these financial statements. Management plans to complete a business combination or raise additional capital; however, there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in doing so.

Current wording

Although management believes its current cash resources are sufficient to support near-term operations, the Company may need to obtain additional financing to meet future operating requirements and sustain its business activities. However, if our estimate of the costs of identifying a target business, undertakingin-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 Business Combination.

Management plans to complete a Business Combination or raise additional capital; however, there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in doing so.

Previous wording

We do not have any long-term debt, capital lease obligations, operating lease obligations or long-term liabilities, other than an agreement that the Company have granted the underwriter a 45-day option from the date of the Initial Public Offering to purchase up to an additional 3,450,000 Class A Ordinary Shares to cover over-allotments, if any. On September 29, 2025, the underwriters exercised their over-allotment option, closing on the 3,450,000 additional Class A Ordinary Shares simultaneously with the Initial Public Offering.

Previous wording

The preparation of condensed financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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 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 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, 2026, we did not have any critical accounting estimates to be disclosed.
