PMV Consumer Acquisition Corp.

NOTE 1. DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS

PMV Consumer Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) was incorporated in Delaware on March 18, 2020. The Company was formed for the purpose of entering into a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or similar business opportunity with one or more businesses or entities.

Although the Company is not limited to a particular industry or sector for purposes of identifying a potential business opportunity and consummating a transaction, the Company intends to focus its search on business opportunities in the consumer products industry. The Company is an early stage and emerging growth company and, as such, the Company is subject to all of the risks associated with early stage and emerging growth companies.

As of December 31, 2025, the Company had not commenced any operations. All activity through December 31, 2025, relates to the Company’s formation, the initial public offering (“Initial Public Offering”) and simultaneous private sale of warrants (“Private Warrants”), which is described below, and identifying a potential business opportunity. It is unlikely that the Company will generate any operating revenues until after the completion of a transaction, at the earliest. The Company generates non-operating income in the form of interest income.

The Company initially had until September 21, 2022 to complete a business combination (the “Combination Period”). On September 21, 2022, the Company held a special meeting of stockholders (the “Meeting”). The purpose of the Meeting was to approve the following amendments to the Company’s certificate of incorporation; to extend the date by which the Company had to consummate a business combination for one year, from September 21, 2022 to September 21, 2023, conditioned on the deposit of 200,000 shares of Class B convertible common stock (to be converted into Class C common stock) into the Company’s Trust Account (the “Trust Account”), to increase authorized stock from 86,000,000 to 120,000,000 shares, of which 100,000,000 shall be shares of common stock, consisting of 45,000,000 shares of Class A convertible common stock,10,000,000 shares of Class B convertible common stock,25,000,000 shares of Class C common stock and 20,000,000 shares of Special common stock, and 20,000,000 shall be shares of preferred stock; to permit the Company’s board of directors to create Special common stock in one or more series and to fix for each series the voting powers, designations, preferences, rights, qualifications, limitations and restrictions thereof; to provide for (i) the right of a holder of Class A convertible common stock to convert into Class C common stock on a one-for-one basis, (ii) the right of the Company to redeem Class A convertible common stock in exchange for a pro rata share of the net cash (and not stock) held in the Company’s Trust Account, unless the holder elects to receive Class C common stock issued on a one-for-one basis, plus a pro rata share of any stock held in the Trust Account, and (iii) upon such redemption the extinguishment of the legal force and effect of the business combination and Trust Account provisions contained in paragraphs A through I of Article Sixth of the charter; to (i) eliminate the Class B convertible common stock anti-dilution provisions that require adjustment to maintain the specified 20% class ownership, and (ii) provide for the right of a holder of Class B convertible common stock to convert into Class C common stock on a one-for-one basis. All such amendments were approved at the Meeting. On September 27, 2022, the Sponsor (the “Sponsor”) contributed to the Company for purposes of making a deposit into the Company’s Trust Account of an aggregate of 200,000 shares of Class B convertible common stock (to be converted into Class C common stock) to extend the date by which the Company had to consummate a business combination for one year, from September 21, 2022 to September 21, 2023.

At the Meeting, in connection with the extension, stockholders holding 15,453,391 shares of Class A convertible common stock exercised their right to redeem such shares for a pro rata portion of the funds in the Trust Account. As a result, $154,874,303 (approximately $10.02 per share), which included $340,393 of interest earned on the Trust Account which was not previously used to pay the Company’s tax obligation, was removed from the Trust Account to pay such holders. Following these redemptions, the Company had 2,046,609 shares of Class A convertible common stock outstanding and the aggregate amount remaining in the Trust Account at the time was $20,511,170.

On October 17, 2022, the Sponsor elected to convert 3,000,000 shares of its Class B convertible common stock into 3,000,000 shares of Class A convertible common stock. Following the conversion, the Sponsor owned 1,175,000 shares of Class B convertible common stock, and the Company had 5,046,609 shares of Class A convertible common stock outstanding.

On October 24, 2022, the Company’s Class A convertible common stock, redeemable warrants and units (consisting of one share of Class A convertible common stock and one-half of one redeemable warrant) (collectively, the “Securities”) commenced trading on the OTC Pink; the Company previously announced its intention to voluntarily delist the Securities from the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”), and that the last day of trading on the NYSE would be October 21, 2022.

On December 14, 2022, any unseparated units of the Company (consisting of one share of Class A convertible common stock and one-half of one redeemable warrant) terminated trading and were subsequently separated.

NOTE 1. DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS(CONT.)

On December 27, 2022, the Company announced the completion of the redemption of its outstanding shares of Class A convertible common stock subject to redemption, totaling 2,046,609 shares issued in its IPO (the “Class A IPO Shares”), in accordance with the provision of its charter. Holders representing a total of 2,042,409 shares of the Class A IPO Shares called for redemption elected to receive a pro rata share of the cash, including the interest earned thereon net of interest that may be used by the Company to pay its taxes payable (and not any stock), held in the Company’s Trust Account. The $10.10 per share pro rata amount was calculated by dividing the number of Class A IPO Shares redeemed from each such holder by the total number of outstanding Class A IPO Shares. Holders representing a total of 4,200 shares of the Class A IPO Shares called for redemption elected to receive Class C common stock issued on a one-for-one basis for the number of Class A IPO Shares redeemed from each such holder, plus each such holder’s pro rata share of the 200,000 shares of Class C common stock held in the IPO Trust Account. The pro rata share of the Class C common stock held in the Trust Account was calculated by dividing the number of Class A IPO Shares redeemed from each such holder by the total number of Class A IPO Shares redeemed from all holders of Class A IPO Shares that elected to receive stock. The amount of cash that would otherwise have been paid to holders who redeemed for cash (totaling approximately $42,424) was released from the Trust Account and transferred to the Company. The Trust Account was terminated following the release of the cash and stock to holders of Class A IPO Shares in complete liquidation of the assets held in trust and accordingly the Company is no longer subject to the mandatory liquidation provisions. The 3,000,000 shares of Class A convertible common stock owned by the Sponsor, were not redeemed and were expressly excluded from participating in, and were not otherwise entitled to, any of the cash and stock held in the Trust Account. The Class A IPO Shares redeemed are no longer deemed to be outstanding and all rights of the holders thereof as stockholders of the Company with respect to the Class A IPO Shares so redeemed have ceased. The Class C common stock received by holders who elected to receive stock has not been listed on a securities exchange. Following the redemption, the Company has outstanding 3,000,000 shares of Class A convertible common stock,1,175,000 shares of Class B convertible common stock,204,200 shares of Class C common stock,8,750,000 public warrants and 6,150,000 private placement warrants, as well as approximately $1,077,142 of cash on hand available for working capital purposes.

On February 27, 2023, the Sponsor purchased the 204,200 shares of Class C common stock from the holder thereof, which were comprised of (i)4,200 shares of Class C common stock, which were issued on a one-for-one basis for the number of Class A convertible common stock of the Company previously redeemed from the holder (as described above), and (ii)200,000 shares of Class C common stock, which represents the holder’s pro rata share of the Class C common stock that were held in the Trust Account (as described above), for an aggregate purchase price of $42,000.

On September 29, 2023, the Sponsor elected to voluntarily convert all of its shares of Class A convertible common stock into shares of Class C common stock (the “Class C Conversion”). Following this conversion, which occurred on November 1, 2024, the Sponsor owned 1,175,000 shares of Class B convertible common stock and 3,204,200 shares of Class C Common Stock.

In light of the Class C Conversion, and in order to simplify and better reflect the purpose, capital structure, governance and organizational policies and procedures of the Company, the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) recommended, and the stockholders approved on September 29, 2023, various amendments to the Charter, as well as a reverse stock split of all outstanding shares of Class B convertible common stock and Class C common stock at a ratio of 43.792-to-1 (the “Reverse Stock Split”). The purpose of the Reverse Stock Split was to decrease the total number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock outstanding and increase the liquidity and market price of such shares to approximately $10.00 per share. The other amendments to the Charter were as follows: (i) the elimination of any and all authorized shares of Class A convertible common stock, the renaming of the Class C common stock to Class A common Stock (the “Reclassification”), and the elimination of any and all authorized shares of Special common stock, (ii) the modification of the rights of the Class B convertible common stock such that (a) the provisions permitting conversion into shares of Class C common stock were deleted and (b) each holder of record shall be entitled to ten (10) votes for each share of Class B convertible common stock held, (iii) the deletion of certain provisions of Article SIXTH of the Charter, including with respect to any references to a business combination and/or the Company’s IPO Trust Account, as such provisions were previously extinguished in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Charter and were therefore of no further legal force and effect, and (iv) the deletion of certain provisions of Article SIXTH of the Charter, including the requirement that the Board be divided into staggered classes for election. On November 2, 2023, the Company filed a Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, dated November 1, 2023, with the State of Delaware.

Also, the Board recommended, and the stockholders approved on September 29, 2023, an amendment to the Bylaws of the Company (the “Bylaws”) to provide that, subject to applicable law, any action that is required or permitted to be taken by the stockholders of the Company at any annual or special meeting of stockholders may be effected by written consent of stockholders in lieu of a meeting. On November 2, 2023, the Company filed the Amended and Restated Bylaws with the State of Delaware.

On March 12, 2024 (the “Effective Date”), the Reverse Stock Split was declared effective. As a result of the Reclassification and the Reverse Stock Split, approximately 26,831 shares of Class B convertible common stock are in issue and outstanding and approximately 73,169 shares of Class A common stock are in issue and outstanding as of the Effective Date. Accordingly, earnings per share reported for prior periods in the financial statements have been restated to reflect the retroactive effect of the reverse stock split.

NOTE 1. DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS(CONT.)

Following the Effective Date, and consistent with the terms and conditions of the Warrant Agreement, the terms of the Company’s public and private warrants are proportionately adjusted in the same ratio as the reduction in the number of shares of outstanding Common Stock, except any fractional shares resulting from such adjustment are rounded up or down, as the case may be, to the nearest whole share. Correspondingly, the per share exercise price of such warrants is increased in direct proportion to the Reverse Stock Split ratio such that the aggregate dollar amount payable for the purchase of the shares subject to such securities remains unchanged; therefore, the 8,750,000 public warrants are exercisable into approximately 199,808 shares of Class A Common Stock and the 6,150,000 private placement warrants are exercisable into approximately 140,437 shares of Class A Common Stock, each at a price of approximately $503.61 per share. In furtherance of any prospective business opportunities, the Company may in the future seek to pursue a variety of capital raising initiatives.

On April 29, 2024, the Board of Directors of the Company recommended, and the Company’s sole shareholder approved, an amendment to the Company’s Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Amendment”) to (i) reduce the number of authorized shares of Class A common stock from 25,000,000 shares to 570,000 shares, (ii) reduce the number of authorized shares of Class B common stock from 10,000,000 shares to 230,000 shares, and (iii) reduce the number of authorized shares of preferred stock from 20,000,000 shares to 460,000 shares. The Company filed the Amendment with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on April 30, 2024.

Liquidity and Going Concern

At December 31, 2025, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $1,077,142. The Company intends to use these funds primarily to identify and evaluate potential business opportunities, perform business due diligence on prospective business opportunities, travel to and from the offices, plants or similar locations associated with prospective business opportunities, review corporate documents and material agreements related to business opportunities, and structure, negotiate and complete a transaction.

The Company does not believe it will need to raise additional funds in order to meet the expenditures required for operating the business. However, if the estimate of the costs of identifying a business opportunity, undertaking in-depth due diligence and negotiating a transaction are less than the actual amount necessary to do so, the Company may have insufficient funds available to operate the business prior to a transaction. Moreover, the Company may need to obtain additional financing to complete a transaction, in which case the Company may issue additional equity securities or incur debt in connection with such transaction. In addition, following a transaction, if cash on hand is insufficient, the Company may need to obtain additional financing in order to meet its obligations.

NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying financial statements are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the Company’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period.

Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. 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. One of the more significant accounting estimates included in these financial statements is the determination of the fair value of the warrant liabilities. Such estimates may be subject to change as more current information becomes available and accordingly the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. As of December 31, 2025, and 2024, cash and cash equivalents consist of operating cash and an affiliated money market mutual fund, the Gabelli U.S. Treasury Money Market Mutual Fund, which invests fully in instruments issued by the U.S. Government.

Derivative Warrant Liabilities

The Company accounts for warrants as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the warrant’s specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) ASC 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity” (“ASC 480”), and ASC 815, “Derivatives and Hedging” (“ASC 815”). The assessment considers whether the warrants are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and whether the warrants meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the warrants are indexed to the Company’s own common stock, among other conditions for equity classification. This assessment, which requires the use of professional judgment, is conducted at the time of warrant issuance and as of each subsequent quarterly period end date while the warrants are outstanding.

For issued or modified warrants that meet all of the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded as a component of additional paid-in capital at the time of issuance. For issued or modified warrants that do not meet all the criteria for equity classification, the warrants classified as liabilities are required to be recorded at their initial fair value on the date of issuance, and each balance sheet date thereafter. Changes in the estimated fair value of the warrants are recognized as a non-cash gain or loss on the statements of operations.

Income Taxes

The Company follows the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes under ASC 740, “Income Taxes” (“ASC 740”). Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statements’ carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that included the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

ASC 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. There wereno unrecognized tax benefits and no amounts accrued for interest and penalties as of December 31, 2025 and 2024. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviation from its position. The Company has been subject to income tax examinations by major taxing authorities since inception.

Net Loss per Common Share

Net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. The Company has not considered the effect of warrants to purchase 340,245 shares of Class A common stock (fka Class C common stock), since the warrants are contingent upon the occurrence of future events for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024. As a result, diluted loss per common share is the same as basic loss per common share for the periods presented.

As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company has two classes of shares that participate in earnings, which are referred to as Class A common stock (fka Class C common stock) and Class B convertible common stock (the “Founder Shares”). Earnings and losses are shared pro-rata between the two classes of shares. This presentation contemplates a transaction as the most likely outcome, in which case, both classes of shares share pro rata in the loss of the Company.

The following tables reflect the calculation of basic and diluted net loss per share of common stock (in dollars, except share amounts):

Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of a cash account in a financial institution, which, at times, may exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation coverage of $250,000. Any loss incurred, or a lack of access to such funds, could have a significant adverse impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Excluding the warrant liability and cash equivalents, the fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the accompanying balance sheets, primarily due to their short-term nature.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

NOTE 3. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

On March 20, 2020, the Sponsor purchased 3,593,750 shares of Class B convertible common stock (the “Founder Shares”) for an aggregate price of $25,000, or approximately $0.007 per share.

On August 3, 2020, the Company effected a 1.4-for-1 forward stock split of its issued and outstanding shares of Class B convertible common stock, resulting in an aggregate of 5,031,250 Founder Shares being outstanding, of which an aggregate of up to 656,250 shares were subject to forfeiture by the Sponsor to the extent that the underwriters’ over-allotment option was not exercised in full or in part so that the Sponsor would own, on an as-converted basis,20% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares after the Initial Public Offering.

On November 5, 2020, the over-allotment option expired and was not exercised. Consequently 656,250 Founder Shares were forfeited. Following the forfeiture, the sponsor owned 4,375,000 shares of Class B convertible common stock.

On September 27, 2022, the Company’s Sponsor contributed to the Company an aggregate of 200,000 shares of Class B convertible common stock. Following the contribution, the Sponsor owned 4,175,000 shares of Class B convertible common stock.

On October 17, 2022, the Sponsor elected to convert 3,000,000 shares of Class B convertible common stock into 3,000,000 shares of Class A convertible common stock. Following the conversion, the Sponsor owned 1,175,000 shares of Class B convertible common stock.

The Class B convertible common stock is identical to the Class A common stock except that (i) each share of Class B convertible common stock shall be entitled to ten (10) votes at any annual or special meeting of stockholders or in the case of any written consent of stockholders in lieu of a meeting and for all purposes, and (ii) the Class B convertible common stock has the exclusive right to elect, replace and remove the directors of the Company. Holders of Class B convertible common stock may also elect to convert their shares of Class B convertible common stock into an equal number of shares of Class A common stock, subject to adjustment as provided above, at any time.

On February 27, 2023, the Sponsor purchased 204,200 shares of Class C common stock from a Holder, which were comprised of (i)4,200 shares of Class C common stock, which were issued on a one-for-one basis for the number of shares of Class A convertible common stock of the Company previously redeemed from the Holder, and (ii)200,000 shares of Class C common stock, which represent the Holder’s pro rata share of the Class C common stock that were held in the Trust Account, for an aggregate purchase price of $42,000.

On November 1, 2023, the Sponsor voluntarily elected to convert all of its shares of Class A convertible common Stock into shares of Class C common stock (the “Class C Conversion”), which upon completion the Class C common stock was renamed Class A common stock.

NOTE 3. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS(CONT.)

Administrative Support Agreement

The Company entered into an agreement whereby, commencing September 24, 2020, the Company will pay an affiliate of the Sponsor a total of $10,000 per month for office space, utilities and secretarial and administrative support. For each of the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company incurred fees for these services of $120,000 and $120,000 respectively.

NOTE 4. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Risks and Uncertainties

In light of the ongoing market uncertainty caused by global trade and geopolitical conflicts and their impact on the global economy and markets, the Company could experience higher volatility which could adversely affect the Company’s search for a business opportunity and any target business with which the Company may ultimately consummate a business opportunity.

NOTE 5. STOCKHOLDER’S EQUITY

Preferred Stock — At inception, the Company was authorized to issue 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock with a par value of $0.0001 per share with such designation, rights and preferences as may be determined from time to time by the Company’s board of directors. On September 21, 2022, the Company amended the Certificate of Incorporation to authorize 20,000,000 shares of preferred stock with a par value of $0.0001. On April 30, 2024, the Company amended the Certificate of Incorporation to authorize 460,000 shares of preferred stock with a par value of $0.0001. At December 31, 2025 and 2024, there wereno shares of preferred stock issued or outstanding.

Common Stock — At inception, the authorized common stock of the Company included up to 75,000,000 shares of Class A convertible common stock and 10,000,000 shares of Class B convertible common stock. On September 21, 2022, the Company amended the Certificate of Incorporation to authorize 45,000,000 shares of Class A convertible common stock,10,000,000 shares of Class B convertible common stock,25,000,000 shares of Class C common stock and 20,000,000 shares of Special common stock. On November 1, 2023, the Company amended the Certificate of Incorporation to authorize 25,000,000 shares of Class A common stock (fka Class C common stock) and 10,000,000 shares of Class B convertible common stock. On November 2, 2023, the Company amended the Certificate of Incorporation to eliminate any and all authorized shares of Class A convertible common stock. On April 30, 2024, the Company amended the Certificate of Incorporation to authorize 570,000 shares of Class A common stock (fka Class C common stock) and 230,000 shares of Class B convertible common stock.

NOTE 5. STOCKHOLDER’S EQUITY (CONT.)

At December 31, 2025 and 2024, there wereno authorized shares of Class A convertible common stock,73,169 shares of Class A common stock (fka Class C common stock) issued and outstanding, and 26,831 shares of Class B convertible common stock issued and outstanding.

Warrants— Public Warrants may only be exercised for a whole number of shares. No fractional shares will be issued upon exercise of the Public Warrants. No warrants will be exercisable for cash unless the Company has an effective and current registration statement covering the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants and a current prospectus relating to such shares of common stock.

Once the warrants become exercisable, the Company may redeem the Public Warrants:

If the Company calls the Public Warrants for redemption, management will have the option to require all holders that wish to exercise the Public Warrants to do so on a “cashless basis,” as described in the warrant agreement.

The exercise price and number of shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances, including in the event of a stock dividend, or recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation. However, the warrants will not be adjusted for issuance of common stock at a price below its exercise price. Additionally, in no event will the Company be required to net cash settle the warrants. The Company liquidated the funds held in the Trust Account; holders of warrants did not receive any of such funds with respect to their warrants, nor did they receive any distribution from the Company’s assets held outside of the Trust Account with respect to such warrants. Accordingly, the warrants may expire worthless.

The Private Warrants will be identical to the Public Warrants underlying the Units sold in the Initial Public Offering, subject to certain limited exceptions. Additionally, the Private Warrants will be exercisable for cash or on a cashless basis, at the holder’s option, and be non-redeemable so long as they are held by the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees. If the Private Warrants are held by someone other than the initial purchaser or its permitted transferees, the Private Warrants will be redeemable by the Company and exercisable by such holders on the same basis as the Public Warrants.

The below table outlines the Company’s capital structure as of December 31, 2025 and 2024:

NOTE 6. INCOME TAXES

The Company’s net deferred tax assets at December 31, 2025 and 2024, are as follows:

As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company did not have any U.S. federal and state net operating loss carryovers (“NOLs”) available to offset future taxable income.

In assessing the realization of the deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion of all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which temporary differences representing net future deductible amounts become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. After consideration of all of the information available, management determined that a full valuation allowance was required.

The income tax provision for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, consists of the following:

A reconciliation of the income tax rate to the Company’s effective tax rate for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, is as follows:

The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and in various state and local jurisdictions and is subject to examination by the various taxing authorities.

NOTE 7. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The fair value of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities reflects management’s estimate of amounts that the Company would have received in connection with the sale of the assets or paid in connection with the transfer of the liabilities in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In connection with measuring the fair value of its assets and liabilities, the Company seeks to maximize the use of observable inputs (market data obtained from independent sources) and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs (internal assumptions about how market participants would price assets and liabilities). The following fair value hierarchy is used to classify assets and liabilities based on the observable inputs and unobservable inputs used in order to value the assets and liabilities:

The following tables present information about the Company’s assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis at December 31, 2025 and 2024, and indicate the fair value hierarchy of the valuation inputs the Company utilized to determine such fair value.

The fair value of the Company’s Public Warrants at December 31, 2025 and 2024, is based on observable inputs. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Public Warrants are classified as a level 2 measurement due to the low trading volume. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the measurement of the Private Warrants is classified as Level 2 due to the use of an observable market quote for a similar asset in an active market.

The aforementioned warrant liabilities are not subject to qualified hedge accounting.

Transfers to/from Levels 1, 2 and 3 are recognized at the end of the reporting period in which a change in valuation technique or methodology occurs. There were no transfers during the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.

NOTE 8. SEGMENT INFORMATION

ASC Topic 280, “Segment Reporting,” establishes standards for companies to report in their financial statement information about operating segments, products, services, geographic areas, and major customers. Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise for which separate financial information is available that is regularly evaluated by the Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), or group, in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance.

The Company’s CODM has been identified as the Chief Executive Officer, who reviews the operating results for the Company as a whole to make decisions about allocating resources and assessing financial performance. Accordingly, management has determined that the Company only hasone reportable segment.

The CODM assesses performance for the single segment and decides how to allocate resources based on net loss that also is reported on the statements of operations as net loss. The measure of segment assets is reported on the balance sheets as total assets. When evaluating the Company’s performance and making key decisions regarding resource allocation, the CODM reviews several key metrics included in net loss and total assets, which include the following:

The CODM reviews interest income to measure and monitor stockholder value and determine the most effective strategy of investment.

General and administrative costs are reviewed and monitored by the CODM to manage and forecast cash to ensure enough capital is available to complete a business opportunity. The CODM also reviews general and administrative expenses to manage, maintain and enforce all contractual agreements to ensure costs are aligned with all agreements and budget. General and administrative expenses, as reported on the statements of operations, are the significant segment expenses provided to the CODM on a regular basis. The accounting policies used to measure the loss of the segment are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies.

All other segment items included in net loss are reported on the statements of operations and described within their respective disclosures.
