Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
AERIES TECHNOLOGY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1 -Nature of Operations
Unless the context otherwise requires, Aeries Technology, Inc. and its subsidiaries, is herein referred to as the “Company,” “ATI,” “us,” “we” and “our” in these condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company is a global leader in AI enabled value creation, business transformation, and Global Capability Center (GCC) delivery for private equity (PE) portfolio companies, supporting scalable, technology driven execution. Founded in 2012, its commitment to workforce development has earned it the Great Place to Work Certification for two consecutive years. The Company has subsidiaries in India, Mexico, Singapore and the United States.
Note 2 -Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Preparation
The information presented below supplements the Significant Accounting Policies information presented in the annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2025. There have been no changes in accounting policies during the three months ended June 30, 2025, from those disclosed in the annual consolidated financial statements and related notes for the year ended March 31, 2025, except for those described below and also as described in “Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements” below.
All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Emerging Growth Company
The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”), and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.
Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that an emerging growth company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements with another public company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.
Going Concern
The Company has the responsibility to evaluate whether conditions and/or events raise substantial doubt about its ability to meet its obligations as they become due within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued. Management’s evaluation does not initially take into consideration the potential mitigating effects of management’s plans that have not been fully implemented as of the date the financial statements are issued. The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern.
In performing this evaluation, the Company identified the following conditions that raised substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern:
| ● | As of June 30, 2025, the Company had a working capital deficit of $10,621, primarily due to current liabilities related to the FPAs of $3,780 (as defined below), short term borrowings of $5,398 and remaining due to other current liabilities such as accrued compensation benefits and other accruals. |
The FPAs were liquidity arrangements entered into as part of the Business Combination consummated as of November 6, 2023 (“Closing date”). Under these liquidity arrangements, certain investors agreed not to redeem their holdings in Worldwide Webb Acquisition Corp. (“WWAC”) in exchange for the Company entering into the FPAs. As of the date of this Form 10-Q report, the remaining balance owed to the FPA holders is $3,780. The maturity consideration may be settled either in cash or equity at the option of the FPA holders.
| ● | Additionally, during the period ended June 30, 2025, there is a heightened risk of non-collection, leading the Company to record an allowance for doubtful accounts of approximately $3,596, compared to $3,574 as on March 31, 2025. |
The Company has historically financed its operations and expansions primarily with cash generated from operations and the revolving credit facility from Kotak Mahindra Bank. Management expects to have sufficient cash from the operations, cash reserves and debt capacity for the next 12 months and for the foreseeable future to finance our operations, our growth and expansion plans. However, this expectation assumes that the FPA liabilities will not require immediate cash settlement. If an immediate cash settlement is required for the remaining FPA liabilities, the Company may lack the necessary financial resources to sustain operations during this period.
The Company has undertaken or completed the following actions to improve its available cash balances, liquidity, and cash generated from operations:
| ● | Targeted cost cutting measures have been instituted, focusing on non-core expenses including those related to inorganic growth strategy, such as reductions in the use of outside vendors and professional services, as well as selective headcount and salary reductions, which are designed to improve our cash flow position without impacting core business operations. |
Management’s plans to address these challenges include (i) raising additional funds through existing or new credit facilities, (ii) raising equity or equity-linked capital, (iii) restructuring current liabilities into equity or long-term obligations, and (iv) further reducing non-core expenses with a renewed focus on organic growth in the core geography we historically operate in, which is North America. There is no guarantee that these measures will be successful or that additional funding will be available on acceptable terms. Any future equity financing could significantly dilute existing shareholders’ ownership. Moreover, we have generated positive operating cashflow of $1,369 for this quarter and our future profitability depends on our ability to generate revenue in excess of our expenses, including the fixed cost relating to the maintenance of our business and debt service requirements.
The Company is hopeful of accomplishing its objectives through these measures in the anticipated time frame and also expects that the funds available through the above-mentioned arrangements will be sufficient to alleviate the doubts about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. However, there is no guarantee of the success of these efforts. The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recovery of the recorded assets or the classification of the liabilities that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include, but are not limited to, revenue recognition, allowance for credit losses, stock-based compensation, fair valuation of FPA put option liabilities and private warrant liabilities, useful lives of property and equipment, accounting for income taxes, determination of incremental borrowing rates used for operating lease liabilities and right-of-use assets and obligations related to employee benefits. Management believes that the estimates and judgments upon which it relies, are reasonable based upon information available to the Company at the time that these estimates and judgments were made. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Segment Reporting
The Company operates as one operating segment. The Company’s chief operating decision maker is its chief executive officer, who reviews financial information presented on a consolidated basis for the purposes of making operating decisions, assessing financial performance and allocating resources.
Forward Purchase Agreement
On November 3, 2023 and November 5, 2023, WWAC entered into Forward Purchase Agreements (the “FPAs”) with Sandia Investment Management LP (“Sandia”), Sea Otter Trading, LLC, YA II PN, Ltd and Meteora Capital Partners, LP (“Meteora” and collectively, the “FPA holders”) for an OTC Equity Prepaid Forward Transaction. Subscription Agreements (the “Subscription Agreements”) were also executed alongside the FPA for subscription of the underlying FPA shares by the FPA holders either through a new issuance or purchase of shares from existing holders. The FPAs and Subscription Agreements have been accounted for separately as discussed subsequently.
On November 6, 2024, the Company reached an agreement with Meteora to settle the outstanding maturity consideration liability through the issuance of additional shares. As a result, the Company issued 57,811 Class A ordinary shares to Meteora in November 2024, settling its maturity consideration liability with Meteora.
The remaining FPA holders have requested cash for their shares. Some FPA holders have sold some of their shares in the open market, reducing the amount they are owed. We are required to make a cash payment of $2.00 per FPA Share, or issue additional Class A ordinary shares to such FPA holders at a price of $2.50 per share, for each FPA share held by the FPA holders who continued to hold their FPA Shares at the Maturity Date.
Derivative Financial Instruments and FPA Put Option Liability
The Company accounts for the Warrants (as defined below) in accordance with the guidance contained in ASC 815-40 under which the Instruments (as defined below) do not meet the criteria for equity treatment and must be recorded as liabilities. The Company accounts for the FPA put option liability as a financial liability in accordance with the guidance in ASC 480-10. Warrants and FPA are collectively referred as the “Instruments”. The Instruments are subjected to re-measurement at each balance sheet date until exercised, and any change in fair value is recognized in the Company’s condensed consolidated statement of operations. See Note 11 for further discussion of the pertinent terms of the Warrants and Note 13 for further discussion of the methodology used to determine the value of the Warrants and FPA.
A derivative financial instrument written by the Company which has been accounted for in accordance with the guidance contained in ASC 815-40 including subsequent re-measurement at fair value with the changes being recognized in Company’s condensed consolidated statement of operations.
| ● | For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value at inception and is then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the statements of operations. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is evaluated at the end of each reporting period. Derivative liabilities are classified in the condensed consolidated balance sheets as current or noncurrent based on whether or not net-cash settlement or conversion of the instrument could be required within 12 months of the balance sheet date. |
| ● | The Company and Meteora agreed to settle the liability through issuance of additional shares. As a result, the Company issued 57,811 Class A ordinary shares to Meteora in November 2024, settling its maturity consideration liability with Meteora, leaving a remaining balance of $3,780 owed to other FPA holders, which may be settled either in cash or in equity, at the option of the investors. |
Fair Value Measurements
Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value should maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. Assets and liabilities recorded at fair value in the condensed consolidated financial statements are categorized based upon the level of judgment associated with the inputs used to measure their fair value.
Hierarchical levels which are directly related to the amount of subjectivity associated with the inputs to the valuation of these assets or liabilities are as follows:
Level 1 – Inputs are unadjusted, quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date.
Level 2 – Inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly. Such prices may be based upon quoted prices for identical or comparable securities in active markets or inputs not quoted on active markets but corroborated by market data.
Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and reflect management’s best estimate of what market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. Consideration is given to the risk inherent in the valuation technique and the risk inherent in the inputs to the model.
A financial instrument’s categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Except for the Warrants and FPA as described above, the fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash consists of the Company’s cash and bank balances. The Company considers cash equivalents to be highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less.
Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, loans to affiliates, and investments. The Company holds cash at financial institutions that the Company believes are high credit quality financial institutions and limits the amount of credit exposure with any one bank and conducts ongoing evaluations of the creditworthiness of the banks with which it does business. As of June 30, 2025 and March 31, 2025, there were two and two customers that represented 10% or greater of the Company’s accounts receivable balance, respectively. The Company expects limited credit risk arising from its long-term investments as these primarily entail investments in the Company’s affiliates that have a credit rating that is above the minimum allowable credit rating defined in the Company’s investment policy. As a part of its risk management process, the Company limits its credit risk with respect to long-term investments by performing periodic evaluations of the credit standing of counterparties to its investments.
In respect of the Company’s revenue, there were four customers that each accounted for more than 10% of total revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The following table shows the amount of revenue derived from each customer exceeding 10% of the Company’s revenue during the three months ended June 30, 2025, and 2024:
| Schedule of concentration of credit risk | ||
|---|---|---|
| Three Months Ended June 30, | ||
| 2025 | 2024 | |
| Customer 1 | 14% | 16% |
| Customer 2 | 12% | 12% |
| Customer 3 | 11% | 10% |
| Customer 4 | 11% | 10% |
Accounts receivable, net
The Company records a receivable when an unconditional right to consideration exists, such that only the passage of time is required before payment of consideration is due. Timing of revenue recognition may differ from the timing of invoicing to customers. If revenue recognized on a contract exceeds the billings, then the Company records an unbilled receivable for that excess amount, which is included as part of accounts receivable, net in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Under ASC Topic 326, accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount, net of allowance for credit losses. The Company regularly reviews the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses based on a combination of factors. In establishing any required allowance, management considers historical losses adjusted for current market conditions, the current receivables aging, current payment terms and expectations of forward-looking loss estimates. Allowance for credit losses was $3,596 as of June 30, 2025 and $3,574 as of March 31, 2025, and is classified within “Accounts Receivable, net” in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
The following tables provides details of the Company’s allowance for credit losses on accounts receivable:
| Schedule of allowance for credit losses on accounts receivable | ||
|---|---|---|
| Three months Ended June 30, | ||
| 2025 | 2024 | |
| Opening balance as of April 1 | $3,574 | $1,263 |
| Additions charged to cost and expense | 22 | 1,036 |
| Closing balance as of June 30 | $3,596 | $2,299 |
Long-Term Investments
The Company’s long-term investments consist of debt and non-marketable equity investments in privately-hold companies in which the Company does not have a controlling interest or significant influence, which have maturities in excess of one year and the Company does not intend to sell.
Debt investments of mandatorily redeemable preference shares, which are classified as held-to-maturity since the Company has the intent and contractual ability to hold these securities to maturity. These investments are reported at amortized cost and are subject to an ongoing impairment evaluation. Income from these investments is recorded in “Interest income” in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
Under ASC Topic 326, expected credit losses are recorded and reduced from the amortized cost of the held-to-maturity securities. Expected credit losses for long-term investments are calculated using a probability of default method. Credit losses are recorded within “Selling, general & administrative expenses” in the condensed consolidated statements of operations when an event or circumstance indicates a decline in value has occurred. Allowance for credit losses was $77 as of June 30, 2025 and $76 as of March 31, 2025.
The following tables provides details of the Company’s allowance for credit losses on long-term investments:
| Schedule of allowance for credit losses on long-term investments | ||
|---|---|---|
| Three months Ended June 30, | ||
| 2025 | 2024 | |
| Opening balance as of April 1 | $76 | $126 |
| Change in provision for credit losses | 1 | (13) |
| Closing balance as of June 30 | $77 | $113 |
The Company includes these long-term investments in “Long-term investments” on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Net Income / (loss) per Share
Basic net income / (loss) per share is computed by dividing income / (loss) available to ordinary shareholders by the weighted-average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income / (loss) per share is computed using the weighted-average number of ordinary shares and potential dilutive ordinary shares outstanding during the period. The Company has not considered the effect of the Warrants sold in its initial public offering (the “Initial Public Offering”) and private placement to purchase ordinary shares, and impact of FPA put option liability in the calculation of diluted net income / (loss) per share, since the instruments are not dilutive.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements not yet Adopted
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (Subtopic 220-40). The ASU requires the disaggregated disclosure of specific expense categories, including purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, and amortization, within relevant income statement captions. This ASU also requires disclosure of the total amount of selling expenses along with the definition of selling expenses. The ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. Adoption of this ASU can either be applied prospectively to consolidated financial statements issued for reporting periods after the effective date of this ASU or retrospectively to any or all prior periods presented in the consolidated financial statements. Early adoption is also permitted. This ASU will likely result in the required additional disclosures being included in our consolidated financial statements, once adopted. We are currently evaluating the provisions of this ASU.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which requires an annual tabular effective tax rate reconciliation disclosure including information for specified categories and jurisdiction levels, as well as, disclosure of income taxes paid, net of refunds received, disaggregated by federal, state/local, and significant foreign jurisdiction. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that adopting this standard will have on its consolidated financial statements.
The Company is currently evaluating the effect of the updates.
Note 3 -Short-term borrowings
| Schedule of short-term borrowings | ||

| Short-term borrowings | $5,373 | $6,480 |
| Current portion of vehicle loan | 25 | 24 |
| $5,398 | $6,504 | |
As of June 30, 2025, the Company had a revolving credit facility with Kotak Mahindra Bank of INR 320,000 (or approximately $3,741 at the exchange rate in effect on June 30, 2025). The revolving facility is available for the Company’s operational requirements. The funded drawdown amount under the Company’s revolving facility as of June 30, 2025 and March 31, 2025, was $2,652 and $3,586, respectively. The interest rate is equal to the 3-months Repo Rate plus a margin of 3.90% and 6-months Marginal Cost of Funds based Lending Rate (“MCLR”) plus a margin of 0.80% as of June 30, 2025, and March 31, 2025, respectively.
Prior to the Closing Date, WWAC modified the terms of payment owed to Shearman & Sterling LLP, a multinational law firm providing legal consultancy services to WWAC. This resulted in a reduction in the total amount owed by WWAC to Shearman & Sterling LLP from $4,800 of accounts payable to $4,000 promissory note, payable in four equal tranches. Subsequently, the promissory note was amended upon payment of $1,500, wherein the balance $2,500 was promised to be paid in two equal tranches. $2,500 owed to Shearman & Sterling LLP has been disclosed as short-term debt, as ATI has an unconditional obligation to settle it within a period of less than twelve months from June 30, 2025.
ATI has obtained an insurance policy for its directors and senior officers to cover $5,000, effective as of November 6, 2024, for a period of 12 months. The total premium payable under the insurance policy was $670, out of which $58 was paid upfront and the $612 balance of which is payable in eleven equal monthly installments of $58. The arrangement represents a financing transaction where the premium payable has been deferred. The interest payable under the arrangement amounts to $23 and the same would be recognized as part of the interest expense through the condensed consolidated statement of operations. During the three months ended June 30, 2025, the interest expense so recognized was $5. The balance premium payable as of June 30, 2025 is $221.

Note 6 -Employee Compensation and Benefits
The Company has employee benefit plans in the form of certain statutory and other programs covering its employees.
Defined Benefit Plan - Gratuity
The Company’s subsidiaries in India have defined benefit plans comprising of gratuity under Payments of Gratuity Act, 1972 covering eligible employees in India. The present value of the defined benefit obligations and other long-term employee benefits is determined based on actuarial valuation using the projected unit credit method. The rate used to discount defined benefit obligation is determined by reference to market yields at the balance sheet date on Indian government bonds for the estimated term of obligations.
Actuarial gains or losses arising on account of experience adjustment and the effect of changes in actuarial assumptions are initially recognized in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income, and the unrecognized actuarial loss is amortized to the condensed consolidated statements of operations over the average remaining service period of the active employees expected to receive benefits under the plan.

The Company uses the BSM option-pricing model to determine the grant-date fair value of stock options. The determination of the fair value of stock options on the grant date is affected by the estimated underlying share price, as well as assumptions regarding a number of complex and subjective variables. These variables include expected stock price volatility over the term of the awards, actual and projected employee stock option exercise behaviors, risk-free interest rates, and expected dividends. The grant date fair value of the Company’s stock options granted to employees were estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions:
| Schedule of weighted average assumptions | |
|---|---|
| 2022 Grants | |
| Expected term | 3.5 years |
| Expected volatility | 40.80% |
| Risk free interest rate | 3.01% |
| Annual dividend yield | 0.00% |
During the three months ended June 30, 2025, and 2024, the Company recorded stock-based compensation expense of Nil and $12,746 within “Selling, general & administrative expenses” in the condensed consolidated statements of operations, respectively.
As of June 30, 2025 and 2024, there wasno unrecognized stock-based compensation cost.
Note 10 -Commitments and Contingencies
Indemnification obligations
In the normal course of business, the Company is a party to a variety of agreements under which it may be obligated to indemnify the other party for certain matters. These obligations typically arise in contracts where the Company customarily agrees to hold the other party harmless against losses arising from a breach of representations or covenants for certain matters, infringement of third-party intellectual property rights, data privacy violations, and certain tortious conduct in the course of providing services. The duration of these indemnifications varies, and in certain cases, is indefinite.
The Company is unable to reasonably estimate the maximum potential amount of future payments under these or similar agreements due to the unique facts and circumstances of each agreement and the fact that certain indemnifications provide for no limitation to the maximum potential future payments under the indemnification. Management is not aware of any such matters that would have a material effect on the condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company.
Legal Proceedings
From time to time, the Company may be involved in proceedings and litigation, claims and other legal matters arising in the ordinary course of business. Some of these claims, lawsuits, and other proceedings may involve highly complex issues that are subject to substantial uncertainties, and could result in damages, fines, penalties, non-monetary sanctions, or relief. Management is not currently aware of any material pending legal proceedings, except for ordinary routine litigation incidental to the business, in which we or any of our subsidiaries are involved, or where our property is subject to such proceedings.
Exchange Agreements
Upon consummation of the Business Combination, the holders of AARK ordinary shares and ATGBA ordinary shares each entered into the Exchange Agreements. Pursuant to the Exchange Agreements, subject to certain exercise conditions, the Company shall have the right to acquire all of the AARK or ATGBA ordinary share for Class A ordinary shares or cash. In addition, subject to certain exercise condition, each shareholder of ATGBA and AARK ordinary shares shall have the right to require the Company to provide Class A ordinary shares or cash in exchange for up to all of the AARK or ATGBA ordinary shares. Each share of AARK may be exchanged for 2,246 Class A ordinary shares the Company and each ATGBA ordinary share may be exchanged for 14.40 Class A ordinary shares of the Company, in each case subject to certain adjustments. The cash exchange payment may only be elected in the event approval from the Reserve Bank of India is not obtained for exchange of shares and provided that the Company has reasonable cash flow to be able to pay the cash exchange payment and such payment would not be prohibited by any then outstanding debt agreements or arrangements of the Company.
Note 11 -Warrant Liabilities
On October 22, 2021, pursuant tothe consummation of the Initial Public Offering, the Company issued 11,499,991 Public Warrants. Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, WWAC issued 8,900,000 warrants in a private placement (the “Private Placement Warrants”), at a purchase price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant, which included 900,000 units as a result of the underwriter’s full exercise of its option to purchase up to 900,000 additional warrants, at a purchase price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant. On November 6, 2023, WWAC issued 627,810 other Private Placement Warrants to the Sponsor pursuant to the conversion of a promissory note payable to the Sponsor. Upon consummation of the Business Combination, the Company assumed 11,499,991 Public Warrants and 9,527,810 Private Placement Warrants (collectively the “Warrants”).
The Company accounted for the Warrants in accordance with the guidance contained in ASC 815-40 given that certain provisions within the warrant agreement either preclude the warrants from being considered indexed to the ATI’s own stock or the fixed-for-fixed option criteria are not met. On this basis the Public and Private Placement Warrants are classified as a liability and are measured at fair value. This liability is subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet date. With each such re-measurement, the warrant liability will be adjusted to fair value, with the change in fair value recognized in the Company’s condensed consolidated statement of operations.
Each whole Warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one Class A ordinary share of the Company, par value $0.0001 per share, for $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment as described herein. Only whole Warrants are exercisable. A holder of the Warrants will not be able to exercise any fraction of a Warrant. The Warrants will expire at 5:00 p.m. New York City time on November 6, 2028, or earlier upon redemption or liquidation. On the exercise of any Warrant, the Warrant exercise price will be paid directly to us.
The Company may redeem the outstanding Warrants:
| ● | in whole and not in part; |
| ● | at a price of $0.01 per Public Warrant; |
| ● | upon not less than 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption to each Warrant holder; and |
| ● | if, and only if, the last reported sales price of the Class A ordinary shares for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period ending on third trading day prior to the date on which the Company sends the notice of redemption to the Warrant holders (the “Reference Value”) equals or exceeds $18.00 per Class A ordinary share (as adjusted); provided that the Private Placement Warrants will not be redeemable by the Company under this provision so long as they are held by the initial purchasers of the Private Placement Warrants or their permitted transferees. |
The Company may also redeem the outstanding Warrants:
| ● | in whole and not in part; |
| ● | at $0.10 per warrant |
| ● | upon a minimum of 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption provided that holders will be able to exercise their warrants on a cashless basis prior to redemption and receive that number of shares based on the redemption date and the fair market value of the Class A ordinary shares; |
| ● | if, and only if, the Reference Value equals or exceeds $10.00 per Class A ordinary share (as adjusted); provided that if the Reference Value equals or exceeds $18.00 per Class A ordinary share (as adjusted), the Private Placement Warrants will not be redeemable by the Company under this provision so long as they are held by the initial purchasers of the Private Placement Warrants or their permitted transferees. |
No fractional Class A ordinary shares will be issued upon redemption. If, upon redemption, a holder would be entitled to receive a fractional interest in a share, the Company will round down to the nearest whole number of the number of Class A ordinary shares to be issued to the holder.
Note 12 -Redeemable Noncontrolling Interest and Shareholders’ Equity / (Deficit)
The condensed consolidated statements of changes in Redeemable Noncontrolling Interest and Shareholders’ Equity (Deficit) reflect the reverse recapitalization and Business Combination.
Preference shares

Class A ordinary shares
The Company is authorized to issue 500,000,000 ordinary shares with a par value of $0.0001 per share. As of June 30, 2025, there were 47,152,626 Class A ordinary shares issued and outstanding, including 4,000,000 Class A ordinary shares subject to the FPAs.

Treasury Stock
As of June 30, 2025, the Company has 1,285,392 shares of Common Stock held as treasury stock which were repurchased by the Company in order to pay tax withholding obligations on behalf of Mr. Khare, Mr. Webb and Mr. Nambiar, in connection with the vesting of RSUs. The Company records treasury stock using the cost method.
Common stock
Pre-combination AARK had only one class of ordinary shares having no par value. Holders of ordinary shares were entitled to one vote per share held. As of June 14, 2023 (immediately prior to the effective date of a stock split), there were 10 ordinary shares outstanding, and the number of ordinary shares outstanding after a stock split was 10,000. As a result of stock split, AARK’s shares were retroactively restated as if the transaction occurred at the beginning of the earliest periods presented. Consequently, as of April 1 2023 and 2022, the AARK’s ordinary shares consisted of 10,000 shares, all of which were issued and fully paid. Upon the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of AARK, ordinary shareholders were entitled to receive a ratable share of the available net assets of AARK after payment of all debts and other liabilities. The ordinary shares had no preemptive, subscription, redemption or conversion rights.
Equity financing
On April 8, 2024, the Company entered into a private placement transaction (the “Private Placement”), pursuant to a Share Subscription Agreement (the “Subscription Agreement”) with an institutional accredited investor (the “Investor”) for aggregate gross proceeds of $5,000,000. The Private Placement closed on April 23, 2024. As part of the Private Placement, the Company agreed to sell an aggregate of 2,261,778 Class A ordinary shares, $0.0001 par value per share, at a purchase price of $2.21 per share subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation. The “Beneficial Ownership Limitation” shall be 4.99% (or, at the election of the Investor at the closing of the Private Placement, 9.99%) of the number of Class A ordinary shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of the Class A ordinary shares to the Investor.
The Subscription Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants of the parties, and the closing was subject to customary closing conditions. The Company intends to use the net proceeds of approximately $4.68 million from the Private Placement, following a deduction of a 6.5% commission paid to a placement agent, for general corporate and working capital purposes.
As of the closing of the Private Placement, the Company issued an aggregate of 1,940,958 Class A ordinary shares at a purchase price of $2.21 per share and reserved 320,820 Class A ordinary shares in adherence to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation. On July 10, 2024, the Company issued an additional 270,820 shares from the previously reserved 320,820 shares.
Exchange Pursuant to Exchange Agreement
Upon consummation of the Business Combination, the holders of AARK ordinary shares and ATGBA ordinary shares each entered into the Exchange Agreements. Pursuant to the Exchange Agreements, subject to certain exercise condition, each shareholder of AARK ordinary shares shall have the right to require the Company to provide Class A ordinary shares or cash in exchange for up to all of the AARK ordinary share. Each share of AARK may be exchanged for 2,246 Class A ordinary shares the Company subject to certain adjustments.
Pursuant to the Exchange Agreements, on April 5, 2024, the prior investor of AARK exchanged 9,500 ordinary shares of AARK for 21,337,000 Class A ordinary shares of the Company.
Shares Issued to Vendors
In December 2023, ATI settled the amounts owed to certain vendors by issuance of Class A ordinary shares. If the VWAP of the Class A ordinary shares over the three trading days immediately preceding the agreement date is higher than the VWAP over the three trading days immediately preceding the six-month anniversary from the agreement date, ATI would need to issue additional Class A ordinary shares for the difference.
Pursuant to the abovementioned clause, the Company has issued in total 54,074 Class A ordinary shares to the vendors on May 24, 2024.
Redeemable Noncontrolling Interest
As of June 30, 2025, the prior investors of AARK own 3.09% of the ordinary shares of AARK, and prior investors of ATGBA owned 14.69% of the ordinary shares of ATGBA. The prior investors of AARK and ATGBA have the right to exchange their AARK or ATGBA ordinary shares for Class A ordinary shares of the Company based on the exchange ratio as set out in the Exchange Agreements, details of which are set out in Note 10, or cash proceeds based on the VWAP for each of the five consecutive trading days ending on the exchange date, but only if the approval from the Reserve Bank of India or other regulatory approvals are not obtained and subject to other conditions specified in the Exchange Agreements. The exchange is also subject to certain other specified conditions being met, including achieving certain financial and stock price milestones. Given that this is not solely in control of ATI, the noncontrolling interests have been accounted for in accordance with ASC 480-10-S99-1. The redeemable noncontrolling interest has initially been measured at the proportionate share in the net assets of AARK and its subsidiaries in accordance with ASC 805-40-30-3. The cash redemption is not considered to be probable on June 30, 2025 because the specified conditions in relation to EBITDA and revenue have already been met and the Reserve Bank of India and / or applicable regulatory approvals are expected to be received. On this basis the redeemable noncontrolling interest has subsequently been measured by attributing the net income/ loss of AARK pursuant to ASC 810-10.
Note 13 -Fair Value Measurements
As of June 30, 2025, the Company had financial instruments which were measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3). Significant changes in the inputs could result in a significant change in the fair value measurements. See each respective footnote for information on the assumptions used in calculating the fair value of financial instruments.
The following tables present information about the Company’s liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2025 and March 31, 2025, including the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques that the Company utilized to determine such fair value.
Summary of Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis:

| Private Placement Warrants | - | - | 285 | 285 | ||
| Total liabilities | $344 | $ | - | $5,319 | $5,663 | |
The change in the fair value of the forward purchase agreement put option liability of $1,255 has been recorded to change in fair value of forward purchase agreement put option liability for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations. The forward purchase agreement put option liability was classified as a current liability, as its liquidation is reasonably expected to use or require current assets or the creation of current liabilities. See also Notes 2 and 11. The estimated fair value of the forward purchase agreement put option liability was calculated using a Monte Carlo model and used significant assumptions including the risk-free rate and volatility. The change in fair value of the forward purchase agreement put option liability is primarily driven by a decrease in the price per share of the Company.
As of the date of this Form 10-Q report, the remaining balance owed to the FPA holders is $3,780, which may be settled either in cash or in equity, at the option of the investors.
The valuation of the forward purchase agreement put option liability was made using the following assumptions as of June 30, 2025:
| Schedule of purchase agreement | |
|---|---|
| Expected Term (Years) | 0.5 years |
| Risk free Interest Rate | 4.2% |
| Volatility | 90% |
| Reference Price for one Class A ordinary share | $1.2 |
| Note: | The private placement announced and completed on April 8, 2024. Quoted share price of Class A ordinary shares of the Company when PIPE (Private Investment in Public Entity) transaction took place was $2.21 approx. |
|---|
Given that the Public Warrants have a listed price available, the Company classified them as Level 1. The Company has classified the privately placed warrants within Level 3 of the hierarchy as the fair value derived using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, which uses a combination of observable (Level 2) and unobservable (Level 3) inputs. There were no transfers between fair value levels during the three months ended June 30, 2025.
The valuation of the liability for the Private Placement Warrants was made using the following assumptions as of June 30, 2025:
| Schedule of derivative contract assumptions | |
|---|---|
| Term (years) | 3.36 years |
| Risk-free interest rate | 4.20% |
| Stock price at measurement date | $1.2 |
The following table presents a summary of the changes in the fair value of Derivative Liabilities:
| Summary of the changes in the fair value of derivative warrant liabilities | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Forward Purchase Agreement Put Option Liability | Public Warrant Liability | Private Placement Liability | Total | |
| Fair value at April 1, 2025 | $5,034 | $344 | $285 | $5,663 |
| Change in fair value (gain) / loss | (1,254) | (13) | (10) | (1,277) |
| Fair value as of June 30, 2025 | $3,780 | $331 | $275 | $4,386 |
Based on the expected VWAP as at inception as well as June 30, 2025 it is not expected that ATI would be required to issue additional Class A ordinary shares to certain vendors. On this basis, fair value of the derivative financial instrument representing ATI’s obligation to issue additional Class A ordinary shares has been determined to be insignificant on initial recognition as well as at June 30, 2025 and accordingly the quantitative disclosures in relation to the fair value have not been provided.
Note 14 -Net Income / (loss) per Share
Basic net income / (loss) per share (“EPS”) attributable to Class A ordinary shareholders is calculated by dividing net income / (loss) attributable to Class A ordinary shareholders by the weighted number of Class A ordinary shares outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted EPS is computed using the weighted number of Class A ordinary shares and, when dilutive, potential outstanding shares during the period.
The Company’s Class V ordinary share does not participate in the earnings or losses of the Company and are therefore not participating securities. As such, separate presentation of basic and diluted net income / (loss) per Class V ordinary share under the two-class method has not been presented.
The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted net income / (loss) per share for the period three months ended June 30, 2025 and June 30, 2024 (in thousands, except share and per share amounts):
| Schedule of reconciliation of net income per share | ||
|---|---|---|
| Three Months Ended June 30, | ||
| 2025 | 2024 | |
| Net Income/ (Loss) attributable to controlling interest for the period for Basic and Dilutive Earning per share (A) | $1,512 | $(14,821) |
| Weighted average shares outstanding of Class A ordinary shares, basic and diluted (B) | 47,152,626 | 37,852,036 |
| Net Income / (loss) per share: | ||
| Basic and Diluted (A/B) | $0.03 | $(0.39) |
Note 15 -Subsequent Event
The One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”) was enacted on July 4, 2025 and the Company continues to evaluate the impact on its financial position. The OBBBA is not currently expected to materially impact the Company’s effective tax rate or cash flows in the current fiscal year.
