Current report

For the year ended December 31, 2025, cash provided by investing activities was $79,891, representing cash interest withdrawn from the Trust Account to pay taxes.

Current report

For the year ended December 31, 2025, no cash was used in financing activities.

Current report

In order to finance transaction costs in connection with an initial business combination, we and the sponsor, on April 15, 2025, entered into a convertible promissory note dated March 31, 2025 (the “Working Capital Note”). Pursuant to the Working Capital Note, we may request, and in the sole discretion of the sponsor, the sponsor may loan the Company, loan drawdowns of up to an aggregate of $1,500,000 in principal (“Working Capital Loan”) from time to time, less $11,730 which was advanced prior to the execution of the Working Capital Note, and included as outstanding thereunder, with such amounts to be used for working capital.

Current report

Amounts owed under the Working Capital Note do not accrue interest and are payable on the earlier of: (i) the effective date of the consummation of the Company’s initial merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities (the “Business Combination”); or (ii) the date that the winding up of the Company is effective (such date, as applicable, the “Maturity Date”), unless accelerated upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (as defined in the Working Capital Note).

Current report

Amounts outstanding under the Working Capital Note, are convertible, at the option of the sponsor, into units of the Company (“Working Capital Note Units”), at a conversion price of $10.00 per Working Capital Note Unit, with each unit consisting of one share of Company common stock, one warrant, and one right, with each warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one share of common stock at $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment as provided in the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-1 filed in connection with its IPO, and each eight rights entitling the holder to receive one share of common stock upon completion of the Business Combination. The Working Capital Note Units will be identical to the private placement units issued to the Sponsor at the time of the Company’s IPO.

Current report

In addition, if we are unable to complete a Business Combination by May 22, 2026, unless extended for further 6 months, then the Company will cease all operations except for the purpose of liquidating. We cannot be assured that our plans to consummate an initial Business Combination will be successful.

Current report

In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 205-40 “Going Concern,” we have determined that the potential liquidity shortfall and the mandatory liquidation raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Current report

We comply with accounting and disclosure requirements of FASB ASC Topic 260, “Earnings Per Share.” The Company has two classes of shares, which are referred to as redeemable common stock and non-redeemable common stock. Income and losses are shared pro rata between the two classes of shares. Net income per common share is calculated by dividing the net income by the weighted average shares of common stock outstanding for the respective period.
Removed paragraphs (8)

Previous report

For the year ended December 31, 2023, cash provided by financing activities was $116,790, consisting mainly of proceeds from our promissory note with our sponsor.

Previous report

In order to finance transaction costs in connection with an initial 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, loan the Company funds as may be required (“Working Capital Loans”). If the Company completes an initial business combination, the Company would repay the Working Capital Loans out of the proceeds of the trust account released to the Company. Otherwise, the Working Capital Loans would be repaid only out of funds held outside the trust account. In the event that an initial business combination does not close, the Company may use a portion of proceeds held outside the trust account to repay the Working Capital Loans, but no proceeds held in the trust account would be used to repay the Working Capital Loans. Except for the foregoing, the terms of such Working Capital Loans, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such loans. The Working Capital Loans would either be repaid upon consummation of an initial business combination, without interest, or, at the lender’s discretion, up to $1,500,000 of such Working Capital Loans may be convertible into units at a price of $10.00 per unit. The units would be identical to the private placement units. As of December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, no such Working Capital Loans were outstanding.

Previous report

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 an initial 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 initial business combination or because we become obligated to redeem a significant number of our public shares upon consummation of our initial business combination, in which case we may issue additional securities or incur debt in connection with such initial business combination.

Previous report

For the year ended December 31, 2023, we had a net loss of $184,365, which consists of general and administrative expense.

Previous report

In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (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 chief operating officer decision maker (“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.

Previous report

Net loss per share of common stock is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. We apply the two-class method in calculating loss per share.

Previous wording

The JOBS Act contains provisions that, among other things, relax certain reporting requirements for qualifying public companies. We qualify as an “emerging growth company” and under the JOBS Act are allowed to comply with new or revised accounting pronouncements based on the effective date for private (not publicly-traded) companies. We are electing to delay the adoption of new or revised accounting standards, and as a result, we may not comply with new or revised accounting standards on the relevant dates on which adoption of such standards is required for non-emerging growth companies. As a result, the financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with new or revised accounting pronouncements as of public company effective dates.

Previous wording

We account for our common stock subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” Shares of common stock subject to mandatory redemption (if any) are classified as liability instruments and are measured at fair value. Shares of conditionally redeemable common stock (including common stock that feature redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within our control) are classified as temporary equity. At all other times, shares of common stock are classified as stockholders’ equity. Our common stock features certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of our control and subject to the occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, as of December 31, 2024, 6,900,000 shares of common stock subject to possible redemption are presented as temporary equity, outside of the stockholders’ equity section of our balance sheet.

We comply with accounting and disclosure requirements of ASC Topic 260, “Earnings Per Share.” Net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. We have not considered the effect of the warrants sold in the initial public offering and the concurrent private placement to purchase an aggregate of 6,900,000 warrants to in the calculation of diluted earnings per share, since their inclusion would be anti-dilutive under the treasury stock method. As a result, diluted earnings per common share is the same as basic earnings per common share for the period.
