Current report
Upon the closing of the IPO, management agreed that $74,750,000, or $10.00 per Unit sold in the IPO, would be held into a U.S.-based trust account (“trust account”), with Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company acting as trustee. The funds held in the trust account are invested only in U.S. government treasury bills with a maturity of 185 days or less, or in money market funds meeting the applicable conditions of Rule 2a-7 promulgated under the Investment Company Act which invest solely in direct U.S. government treasury. Except with respect to divided and/or interest earned on the funds held in the trust account that may be released to the Company to pay the Company’s tax obligation, if any, the proceeds from the IPO and the sale of the Private Placement Units that are deposited and held in the trust account will not be released from the trust account until the earliest to occur of (i) the completion of the Company’s initial business combination, (ii) the redemption of any public shares properly tendered in connection with a shareholder vote to amend the company’s memorandum and articles of association effective at the time to (A) modify the substance or timing of obligation to redeem 100% of the Company’s public shares if the Company does not complete the Company’s initial business combination by the Combination Deadline (as defined below), or (B) with respect to any other provision relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-business combination activity and (iii) the redemption of all of public shares if the Company is unable to complete their initial business combination by the Combination Deadline, subject to applicable law. In no other circumstances will a public shareholder have any right or interest of any kind to or in the trust account.

Critical Accounting Estimates
Current report
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Current report
The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (“ASC 820”), approximates the carrying amounts represented in the accompanying balance sheet, primarily due to their short-term nature.
Current report
The Company applies ASC 820, which establishes a framework for measuring fair value and clarifies the definition of fair value within that framework. ASC 820 defines fair value as an exit price, which is the price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the Company’s principal or most advantageous market in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The fair value hierarchy established in ASC 820 generally requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. Observable inputs reflect the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability and are developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity. Unobservable inputs reflect the entity’s own assumptions based on market data and the entity’s judgments about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability and are to be developed based on the best information available in the circumstances.
Current report
The public Rights have been classified within shareholders’ deficit and will not require remeasurement after issuance. The public Rights were classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy at the measurement dates due to the use of unobservable inputs inherent in assumptions related to the market adjustments as noted below. The following table presents the quantitative information regarding market assumptions used in the valuation of the public Rights:
Current report
Stock Compensation
Current report
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation expense in accordance with ASC 718, “Compensation — Stock Compensation” (“ASC 718”). Under ASC 718, stock-based compensation associated with equity-classified awards is measured at fair value upon the grant date and recognized over the requisite service period. To the extent a stock-based award is subject to a performance condition, the amount of expense recorded in a given period, if any, reflects an assessment of the probability of achieving such performance condition, with compensation recognized once the event is deemed probable to occur. Forfeitures are recognized as incurred.
Current report
On May 15, 2024, the Sponsor entered into a securities transfer agreement, pursuant to which the Sponsor transferred 100,000 Class B insider shares, for a total purchase price of $1,159 to Bala Padmakumar, the former CEO, Chairman and Director of the Company, and 60,000 Class B insider shares for a total purchase price of $695 to Evan M. Graj, the CFO and director of the Company, respectively. The fair value of these 160,000 shares transferred on the grant date was $33,760 or $0.211 per share, based on valuation performed by a third-party specialist. The Company accounted for the transfer under ASC 718 as stock compensation (See Note 2 to the unaudited financial statements for details).
Current report
The share price was calculated using a scenario-based method, incorporating probabilities of both a business combination and an IPO, with the total Unit value reaching $10 and the Right valued at one-eighth of the share price. Based on these probabilities, an indicated per share marketable value for the Founders Shares was determined, and a discount for lack of marketability, derived from the Finnerty model, a valuation methodology, was applied to yield a minority non-marketable fair value. The following criteria presents the quantitative information regarding market assumptions used in the founder share valuation performed by a third-party specialist:
Current report
Concurrent with the IPO, the Sponsor transferred an aggregate of 60,000 of its Class B insider shares, or 20,000 each to its three independent directors for their board service, for nominal cash consideration, of $696. The fair value of these 60,000 shares transferred on the grant date was $156,600 or $2.61 per share per valuation performed by a third-party specialist. The Company accounted for the transfer under ASC 718 stock compensation (See Note 2 for details).

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 estimates 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 completion of our initial business combination, in which case we may issue additional securities or incur debt in connection with such business combination.
