Current report

On October 14, 2025, we issued three separate unsecured Notes to each of William J. Sandbrook, Michael Andretti and William M. Brown, in total principal amounts of $720,000, $300,000 and $480,000, respectively. The proceeds of the Notes, which may be drawn from time to time prior to the Maturity Date, will be used by us for working capital purposes. The Notes bear no interest and are due and payable upon the earlier of (i) the consummation of the Business Combination and (ii) the date of our liquidation. In the event that we do not consummate a Business Combination, the Notes will be repaid only from amounts remaining outside of the Trust Account, if any. If, prior to the Business Combination, the principal balances of the Notes have not been paid in full, then, at the Payees’ option and subject to certain conditions, up to the total principal amounts of the Notes may be converted into Conversion Unit, each consisting of one Class A ordinary share and one-half of one redeemable warrant, at a conversion price of $10.00 per Conversion Unit, on the date of the Business Combination. The Conversion Units shall be identical to the Private Placement Units. The Conversion Units and their underlying securities are entitled to the registration rights set forth in that certain Registration Rights Agreement by and between us and the parties thereto, dated as of September 5, 2024. A failure to pay the principal outstanding amount of the Notes within one business day of the Maturity Date shall be deemed an event of default, in which case the Payees may declare the Notes due and payable immediately. The issuance of the Notes was made pursuant to the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act. On October 21, 2025, we drew down $200,000 against the notes, and $1,300,000 is available for withdrawal as of this Quarterly Report.

Current wording

For the period from May 21, 2024 (inception) through September 30, 2024, we had net income of $537,674, which consisted of interest earned on marketable securities held in Trust Account of $664,125, offset by general and administrative costs of $126,451.

Previous wording

As of June 30, 2025, we had marketable securities held in the Trust Account of $239,426,072 (including $8,276,072 of interest income). We may withdraw interest from the Trust Account to pay taxes, if any. We intend to use substantially all of the funds held in the Trust Account, including any amounts representing interest earned on the Trust Account (less income taxes payable), 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. 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’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.

As of June 30, 2025, we had cash of $459,437. We 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

The Company’s liquidity condition raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of time within one year after the date that the accompanying condensed financial statements are issued. Management plans to address this uncertainty through a Business Combination. No adjustments have been made to the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities should the Company be required to liquidate after the Combination Period. The Company intends to complete the initial Business Combination before the end of the Combination Period. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to consummate any Business Combination by the end of the Combination Period

Current wording

Additionally, if a Business Combination is not consummated by the end of the Combination Period, currently September 9, 2026, there will be a mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution of the Company. No adjustments have been made to the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities should the Company be required to liquidate after the Combination Period. The Company’s liquidity condition and mandatory liquidation within one year of the issuance of these unaudited condensed financial statements raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management plans to address this uncertainty through a Business Combination. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to consummate any Business Combination by the end of the Combination Period.

Previous wording

Current wording

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company incurred and paid $45,000 and $135,000 in fees for these services, respectively.

Previous wording

We comply with accounting and disclosure requirements of FASB ASC 260, “Earnings Per Share”. We have two classes of ordinary shares, our Class A ordinary shares and Class B ordinary shares. Income and losses are shared pro rata between the two classes of ordinary shares. Net income per ordinary share is calculated by dividing the net income by the weighted average ordinary shares outstanding for the respective period. Diluted net income per share attributable to holders of ordinary shares adjust the basic net income per share attributable to holders of ordinary shares and the weighted-average of ordinary shares outstanding for the potentially dilutive impact of outstanding warrants. However, because the warrants contingent upon a future event that is not considered probable, diluted income (loss) per ordinary share is the same as basic income (loss) per ordinary share for the period presented.
