Previous wording

The Company computes loss per share in accordance with ASC 260-10-45 “Earnings per Share”, which requires presentation of both basic and diluted loss per share on the face of the statement of operations. The Company’s public common shares have a redemption right, which differ from the common shares that the sponsors hold. Accordingly, the Company has effectively two classes of shares, which are referred to as public common shares and Founder Shares. Income and losses are shared pro rata between the two classes of shares. Net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period, excluding shares of common stock subject to forfeiture by the Sponsor. At March 31, 2024, the Company did not have any dilutive securities and/or other contracts that could, potentially, be exercised or converted into shares of common stock and then share in the earnings of the Company. As a result, diluted loss per share is the same as basic loss per share for the period presented.
