In addition to the Merger consideration set forth above, the Reviva Stockholders also have a contingent right to receive certain earnout shares (the “Earnout Shares”) after the Closing based on the stock price performance of the Company’s common stock and the achievement by Reviva of certain clinical trial milestones during the earnout period.

The registration statement for the Company’s Initial Public Offering was declared effective on August 20, 2018. On August 23, 2018, the Company consummated the Initial Public Offering of 5,500,000 units (“Units” and, with respect to the ordinary shares included in the Units offered, the “Public Shares”) at $10.00 per Unit, generating total gross proceeds of $55,000,000, which is described in Note 3.

Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the sale of an aggregate of 323,750 units (the “Private Units”) at a price of $10.00 per unit in a private placement to the Company’s sponsor, Tenzing LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the managing members of which are the Company’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer) (the “Sponsor”), and the underwriter of the Initial Public Offering, generating total gross proceeds of $3,237,500, which is described in Note 4.

Following the closing of the Initial Public Offering on August 23, 2018, an amount of $56,100,000 ($10.20 per Unit) from the net proceeds of the sale of the Units in the Initial Public Offering and the sale of the Private Units was placed in a trust account (“Trust Account”) and invested in U.S. government securities, within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), with a maturity of 180 days or less or in any open-ended investment company that holds itself out as a money market fund selected by the Company meeting the conditions of Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act, as determined by the Company, until the earlier of: (i) the consummation of a Business Combination or (ii) the distribution of the funds in the Trust Account to the Company’s shareholders, as described below.

On August 30, 2018, in connection with the underwriters’ election to fully exercise their over-allotment option, the Company consummated the sale of an additional 825,000 Units and the sale of an additional 35,063 Private Units, each at $10.00 per unit, generating total gross proceeds of $8,600,630. Following the closing, an additional $8,415,000 of net proceeds ($10.20 per Unit) was deposited in the Trust Account, resulting in $64,515,000 held in the Trust Account.

Transaction costs amounted to $4,027,962, consisting of $1,423,125 of underwriting fees, $2,213,750 of deferred underwriting fees and $391,087 of offering costs. As of November 30, 2020, there was $36,595 of cash held outside of the Trust Account and available for working capital purposes.

   

NOTE 2. GOING CONCERN

As of November 30, 2020, the Company had $36,595 in its operating bank accounts, $34,649,855 in securities held in the Trust Account and a working capital deficit of $815,589. On December 14, 2020, the Closing by and among Tenzing, Reviva and the other parties named therein under the Merger Agreement was consummated. Reviva’s management intends to continue its clinical trials and research efforts and to finance operations of the Company through convertible promissory notes or equity financings. The Company cannot provide any assurance that new financing will be available to it on commercially acceptable terms, if at all. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These 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 should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

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 independent registered public accounting firm attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, 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 a 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 financial statements with another public company, which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company, and which has opted out of using the extended transition period, difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.

Use of Estimatesestimates

 

The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires 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 ofincluded in the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and 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 events. Accordingly, the actualaccompany notes thereto. Actual results could differ significantlymaterially 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. The Company did not have any cash equivalents as of November 30, 2020 and February 29, 2020.

Marketable Securities Held in Trust Account

At November 30, 2020, substantially all of the assets held in the Trust Account were held in money market funds, which invest in U.S. Treasury securities. At February 29, 2020, substantially all of the assets held in the Trust Account were substantially held in U.S. Treasury Bills.

Ordinary Shares Subject to Possible Redemption

The Company accounts for its ordinary shares subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” Ordinary shares subject to mandatory redemption are classified as a liability instrument and are measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable ordinary shares (including ordinary shares 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 the Company’s control) are classified as temporary equity. At all other times, ordinary shares are classified as shareholders’ equity. The Company’s ordinary shares feature certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, ordinary shares subject to possible redemption are presented at redemption value as temporary equity, outside of the shareholders’ equity section of the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Income Taxes

The Company complies with the accounting and reporting requirements of ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes,” which requires an asset and liability approach to financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed for differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities that will result in future taxable or deductible amounts, based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.


REVIVA PHARMACEUTICALS HOLDINGS, INC.
(successor to Tenzing Acquisition Corp.)
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOVEMBER 30, 2020
(Unaudited)

ASC Topic 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’s management determined that the British Virgin Islands is the Company’s major tax jurisdiction. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits, if any, as income tax expense. There were no unrecognized tax benefits and no amounts accrued for interest and penalties as of November 30, 2020 and February 29, 2020. 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 may be subject to potential examination by foreign taxing authorities in the area of income taxes. These potential examinations may include questioning the timing and amount of deductions, the nexus of income among various tax jurisdictions and compliance with foreign tax laws.

The Company is considered to be an exempted British Virgin Islands Company and is presently not subject to income taxes or income tax filing requirements in the British Virgin Islands or the United States. As such, the Company's tax provision was zero for the periods presented.

Net Loss Per Ordinary Share

Net loss per ordinary share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding for the period. The Company applies the two-class method in calculating earnings per share. Ordinary shares subject to possible redemption at November 30, 2020 and 2019, which are not currently redeemable and are not redeemable at fair value, have been excluded from the calculation of basic net loss per ordinary share since such ordinary shares, if redeemed, only participate in their pro rata share of the Trust Account earnings. The Company has not considered the effect of warrants sold in the Initial Public Offering and private placement to purchase 6,683,813 ordinary shares in the calculation of diluted loss per share, since the exercise of the warrants are contingent upon the occurrence of future events. As a result, diluted net loss per ordinary share is the same as basic net loss per ordinary share for the periods.

Reconciliation of Net Loss Per Ordinary Share

The Company’s net (loss) income is adjusted for the portion of income that is attributable to ordinary shares subject to possible redemption, as these shares only participate in the earnings of the Trust Account and not the income or losses of the Company. Accordingly, basic and diluted loss per ordinary share is calculated as follows:

In addition to the merger consideration set forth above, the Reviva Pharmaceuticals, Inc. security holders also have a contingent right to receive up to an additional 1,000,000 shares of Reviva Pharmaceuticals Holdings, Inc. (the “Earnout Shares”) based on the stock price performance of the common stock and the achievement by the Company of certain clinical trial milestones during the three (3) year period following the Closing (the “Earnout Period”). In order to receive the Earnout Shares, during the Earnout Period, both:

the closing price of the Company’s common stock has to be equal to or greater than $15.00 per share for any 20 trading days within any 30 trading day period; and

the Company must receive positive data from (i) its first Phase 3 trial in Acute Schizophrenia and (ii) either a Phase 2 clinical trial in pulmonary arterial hypertension or idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis.

The Business Combination was accounted for as a reverse merger in accordance with GAAP. Under this method of accounting, Tenzing is treated as the “acquired” company for financial reporting purposes. This determination was primarily based on the holders of Reviva Pharmaceuticals, Inc. having a majority of the voting power of the post-combination company, Reviva Pharmaceuticals, Inc. senior management comprising substantially all of the senior management of the post-combination company, the relative size of Reviva compared to Tenzing, and Reviva Pharmaceuticals, Inc. operations comprising the ongoing operations of the post-combination company. Accordingly, for accounting purposes, the Business Combination was treated as the equivalent of Reviva Pharmaceuticals, Inc. issuing stock for the net assets of Tenzing, accompanied by a recapitalization. The net assets of Tenzing are stated at historical cost, with 0 goodwill or other intangible assets recorded.

The accompanying financial statements and related notes reflect the historical results of Reviva Pharmaceuticals, Inc. prior to the merger and do not include the historical results of Tenzing prior to the consummation of the Business Combination on a one-for-one basis.

The Sponsor has agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of the founder shares (except to certain permitted transferees) until the earlier of  (i) one year after the date of the consummation of a Business Combination, or (ii) the date on which the closing price of the Company’s ordinary shares equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations and recapitalizations) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing 150 days after a Business Combination.

Determining Fair Value

Valuation and Recognition – The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The Black-Scholes pricing model utilizes the following assumptions:

Expected Term – Expected life of an option award is the average length of time over which the Company expects employees will exercise their options, which is based on historical experience with similar grants.

Expected Volatility - Expected volatility is based on the Company’s financial assets and liabilities reflects management’s estimate of amounts thathistorical stock volatility data over the Company would have received in connection with the saleexpected term of the assets orawards.

Risk-Free Interest Rate - The Company bases the risk-free interest rate on the implied yield currently available on U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issues with an equivalent expected term.

Dividend Yield – The Company has not paid a dividend and does not anticipate paying a dividend in connection with the transfer of the liabilitiesforeseeable future.

The assumptions used in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In connection with measuringestimating 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 usedoptions granted in order to value the assets and liabilities:2021 are summarized as follows:

 

Level 1:Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. An active market for an asset or liability is a market in which transactions for the asset or liability occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.
Level 2:Observable inputs other than Level 1 inputs. Examples of Level 2 inputs include quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities and quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.

Company Overview

 

We are a former blank checkclinical-stage biopharmaceutical company incorporatedthat discovers, develops and seeks to commercialize next-generation therapeutics for diseases representing significant unmet medical needs and burden to society, patients, and their families. Our current pipeline focuses on March 20, 2018 under the name Tenzing Acquisition Corp. ascentral nervous system, respiratory, and metabolic diseases. We use a British Virgin Islands corporationchemical genomics driven technology platform and formedproprietary chemistry to develop new medicines. Our pipeline currently has two drug candidates, RP5063 (Brilaroxazine) and RP1208. Both are new chemical entities discovered in-house. We have been granted composition of matter patents for both RP5063 and R1208 in the United States (U.S.), Europe, and several other countries.

Our lead drug candidate, RP5063, is ready for continued clinical development for multiple neuropsychiatric indications. These include schizophrenia, bipolar disorder (BD), major depressive disorder (MDD), behavioral and psychotic symptoms, dementia or Alzheimer’s disease (BPSD), Parkinson’s disease psychosis (PDP), and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Furthermore, RP5063 is also ready for clinical development for two respiratory indications — pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has granted Orphan Drug designation to RP5063 for the purposetreatment of acquiring, engagingPAH in a share exchange, share reconstructionNovember 2016 and amalgamation with, purchasing all or substantially allIPF in April 2018. 

Our primary focus is to complete the clinical development of RP5063 for the treatment of acute and maintenance schizophrenia.

Subject to the receipt of additional financing, we may also continue the clinical development of RP5063 for the treatment of BD, MDD, BPSD, PDP, ADHD, PAH and IPF. Moreover, subject to the receipt of additional financing, we may also advance the development of our second drug candidate, RP1208, for the treatment of depression and obesity.

Impact of COVID-19

In response to the spread of COVID-19, we have taken temporary precautionary measures intended to help minimize the risk of the assets of, or engaging in any other similar Business Combination with one or more businesses or entities. We completedvirus to our Initial Public Offering on August 23, 2018employees and completed the Business Combination (as defined below) on December 14, 2020.community, including temporarily requiring employees to work remotely and suspending all non-essential travel for our employees.

 

Recent DevelopmentsAs a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, we may experience disruptions that could adversely impact our business. The COVID-19 pandemic may negatively affect clinical site initiation, patient recruitment and enrollment, patient dosing, distribution of drug to clinical sites and clinical trial monitoring for our clinical trials. The COVID-19 pandemic may also negatively affect the operations of the third-party contract research organizations that we intend to rely upon to assist us in conducting our clinical trials and the contract manufacturers who manufacture our drug candidates.

We are continuing to assess the potential impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business and operations. For additional information on the various risks posed by the COVID-19 pandemic, refer to Part I—Item 1A—Risk Factors of our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on May 7, 2021.

Business Combination and Domestication

 

On December 14, 2020, Reviva Pharmaceuticals Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”), a Delaware corporation and the Companysuccessor by re-domiciliation to Tenzing Acquisition Corp. (“Tenzing”), a British Virgin Islands exempted company, Tenzing Merger Subsidiary Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Tenzing (“Merger Sub”), and Reviva Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a Delaware corporation (together with its consolidated subsidiary), consummated a business combination (the “Business Combination”) through the merger of Merger Sub with and into Reviva Pharmaceuticals, Inc., contemplated by the previously announced business combination with RevivaAgreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of July 20, 2020 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among Tenzing, Merger Sub, pursuantReviva Pharmaceuticals, Inc., and the other parties thereto. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement.

UponAgreement, at the consummationeffective time of the Business Combination,Merger (the “Effective Time”), Merger Sub merged with and into Reviva Pharmaceuticals, Inc., with Reviva Pharmaceuticals, Inc. as the surviving company in the Merger and, after giving effect to such Merger, Reviva Pharmaceuticals, Inc. becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of Reviva Pharmaceuticals Holdings, Inc. In connection(together with its consolidated subsidiary).

Old Reviva was incorporated in the closingstate of Delaware on May 1, 2006 and its subsidiary, Reviva Pharmaceuticals India Pvt. Ltd., was incorporated on December 23, 2014. Tenzing was formed pursuant to the laws of the British Virgin Islands on March 20, 2018.

The Business Combination was accounted for as a reverse merger in accordance with GAAP. Under this method of accounting, Tenzing was treated as the “acquired” company for financial reporting purposes. This determination was primarily based on the holders of Old Reviva expecting to have a majority of the voting power of the post-combination company, Old Reviva senior management comprising substantially all of the senior management of the post-combination company, the relative size of Old Reviva compared to Tenzing, and Old Reviva operations comprising the ongoing operations of the post-combination company. Accordingly, for accounting purposes, the Business Combination is treated as the Company changed its nameequivalent of Old Reviva issuing stock for the net assets of Tenzing, accompanied by a recapitalization. The net assets of Tenzing were stated at historical cost, with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded. Operations prior to the Business Combination are those of Old Reviva.

Financial Overview

We are a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company and have not generated any revenues from “Tenzing Acquisition Corp.”the sale of products. We have never been profitable, and our accumulated deficit as of September 30, 2021, was $63.1 million. Our net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, was approximately $4.8 million. We expect to “Reviva Pharmaceuticals Holdings, Inc.”incur significant expenses and increased operating losses for the next several years. We expect our expenses to increase in connection with our ongoing activities to research, develop and commercialize our product candidates. Furthermore, we expect to incur additional costs associated with operating as a public company. We will need to generate significant revenues to achieve profitability, and we may never do so.

We expect our expenses will increase substantially in connection with our ongoing activities, as we:

invest significantly to further research and develop, through clinical trials for RP5063 (Brilaroxazine) and pre-clinical research for RP1208, and seek regulatory approval for our product candidates RP5063 (Brilaroxazine) and RP1208;

identify and develop additional product candidates;

hire additional clinical, scientific and management personnel;

seek regulatory and marketing approvals for any product candidates that we may develop;

ultimately establish a sales, marketing and distribution infrastructure to commercialize any drugs for which we may obtain marketing approval;

maintain, expand and protect our intellectual property portfolio;

acquire or in-license other drugs and technologies; and

add operational, financial and management information systems and personnel, including personnel to support our product candidate development, any future commercialization efforts and our transition to a public company.

4

We have funded our operations to date primarily from the issuance and sale of our equity and convertible equity securities. As of September 30, 2021, we had cash of approximately $33.5 million. To fund our current operating plans, we will need to raise additional capital. Our existing cash will not be sufficient for us to complete development of our product candidates and, if applicable, to prepare for commercializing any product candidate that may receive approval. Accordingly, we will continue to require substantial additional capital beyond our existing cash to continue our clinical development and potential commercialization activities, however, we believe that our existing cash, will be sufficient to fund our current operating plans through at least December 2022. The amount and timing of our future funding requirements will depend on many factors, including the pace and results of our clinical development efforts. We will seek to fund our operations through public or private equity or debt financings or other sources, which may include collaborations with third parties. Adequate additional financing may not be available to us on acceptable terms, or at all. Our failure to raise capital as and when needed would have a negative impact on our financial condition and our ability to pursue our business strategy. We cannot assure you that we will ever be profitable or generate positive cash flow from operating activities.

Research and Development Expenses

We focus our resources on research and development activities, including the conduct of preclinical and clinical studies and product development and expense such costs as they are incurred. We have not historically tracked or recorded research and development expenses on a project-by-project basis, primarily because we use our employee and infrastructure resources across multiple research and development projects, and it is not practical for us to allocate such costs on a project-by-project basis. Our research and development expenses primarily consist of employee-related expenses, including deferred salaries, salaries, benefits and taxes for personnel in research and development functions.

The largest recurring component of our total operating expenses has historically been research and development activities. we expect our research and development expenses will increase for the next several years as we advance our development programs, pursues regulatory approval of our product candidates in the U.S. and other jurisdictions and prepare for potential commercialization, which would require a significant investment in costs related to contract manufacturing, inventory buildup and sales and marketing activities.

** We completed the Phase 1 clinical study for RP5063 (Brilaroxazine) prior to starting the Phase 2 study in schizophrenia and schizoaffective disorder. We collected safety data for RP5063 (Brilaroxazine) in over 200 patients, including healthy subjects and patients with stable schizophrenia, acute schizophrenia and schizoaffective disorder. Generally, no separate Phase 1 study is required for conducting a Phase 2 study for an additional indication, provided the treatment doses in the Phase 2 study for an additional indication are within the range of doses tested in the previously completed Phase 1 study.

The successful development of our platform and product candidates is highly uncertain, and we may never succeed in achieving marketing approval for our product candidates RP5063 (Brilaroxazine), RP1208, or any future product candidates. We estimate that initial costs to conduct our Phase 3 clinical study for RP5063 could total approximately $21.0 million, with approximately $7.0 million payable over the course of calendar 2021, and approximately $10.0 million payable during calendar 2022, and approximately $4.0 million payable during calendar 2023. At this time, other than our estimates for conducting our Phase 3 clinical study for RP5063, we cannot reasonably estimate the nature, timing, or costs of the efforts necessary to finish developing any of our product candidates or the period in which material net cash, if any, from these product candidates may commence. This is due to the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with developing therapeutics, including the uncertainty of:

the scope, rate of progress, expense, and results of clinical trials;

the scope, rate of progress, and expense of process development and manufacturing;

preclinical and other research activities; and

the timing of regulatory approvals.

General Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses primarily consist of payroll and related costs for employees in executive, business development, finance, and administrative functions. Other significant general and administrative expenses include professional fees for accounting and legal services.

We expect general and administrative expenses to increase as we expand infrastructure and continue the development of our clinical programs. Other increases could potentially include increased costs for director and officer liability insurance, costs related to the hiring of additional personnel, and increased fees for directors, outside consultants, lawyers, and accountants. We expect to incur significant costs to comply with corporate governance, internal controls, and similar requirements applicable to public companies.

Off-Balance Sheet Financing Arrangements

 

We did not have no obligations, assets or liabilities, which would be consideredduring the periods presented, and do not currently have, any off-balance sheet arrangements, as defined under SEC rules.

JOBS Act Accounting Election

As an emerging growth company under the JOBS Act, we are eligible to take advantage of November 30, 2020. We docertain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not participate in transactions that create relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, often referred to as variable interest entities, which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements.emerging growth companies. We have elected not entered into any off-balance sheet financing arrangements, established any special purpose entities, guaranteed any debtto opt out of such extended transition period.

The deferred fee was be paidpotential differences in both shares and cash upon the closing of the Business Combination from the amounts held in the Trust Account, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and income and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. We have identified the following critical accounting policies:

Ordinary Shares Subject to Redemption

We account for our ordinary shares subject to possible conversion in accordance with the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” Ordinary shares subject to mandatory redemption are classified as a liability instrument and are measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable ordinary shares (including ordinary shares 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, ordinary shares are classified as shareholders’ equity. Our ordinary shares feature certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of our control and subject to occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, ordinary shares subject to possible redemption are presented at redemption value as temporary equity, outside of the shareholders’ equity section of our condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Net Loss Per Ordinary Share

We apply the two-class method in calculating earnings per share. Ordinary shares subject to possible redemption which are not currently redeemable and are not redeemable at fair value, have been excluded from the calculation of basic net loss per ordinary share since such shares, if redeemed, only participate in their pro rata share of the Trust Account earnings. Our net income is adjusted for the portion of income that is attributable to ordinary shares subject to redemption, as these shares only participate in the earnings of the Trust Account and not our income or losses.

Recent Accounting Standards

Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards if currently adopted, would have a material effect on our condensed consolidated financial statements.used.

ITEM 4.CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filedunder the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or submitted under the Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations thereunder, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controlsforms and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that such information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officerprincipal executive officer and Chief Financial Officer,principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Evaluation In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of Disclosure Controlsachieving the desired control objectives, and Proceduresmanagement is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

 

As required by Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15Rule 13a-15(b) under the Exchange Act, our Chief Executive Officermanagement, under the supervision and Chief Financial Officer carried out an evaluationwith the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of NovemberSeptember 30, 2020.2021. Based upon theiron such evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that, as of September 30, 2021, due to the material weakness described below, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at the reasonable assurance level. 

Material Weaknesses

As discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2020, as filed with the SEC on May 7, 2021, our management has determined that we have a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting related to the lack of analysis for non-routine transactions and related disclosures. Refer to Part II, Item 9A, “Controls and Procedures,” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2020, as filed with the SEC on May 7, 2021, for a discussion of the actions that we have previously undertaken and continue to undertake to remediate this material weakness.

Notwithstanding the material weakness, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report present fairly, in all material respects, our disclosure controlsfinancial position, results of operations, and procedures (as definedcash flows as of the dates and for the periods presented, in Rules 13a-15 (e) and 15d-15 (e) under the Exchange Act) were effective.conformity with GAAP.

 

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

DuringOther than the changes intended to remediate the material weakness as discussed in Part II, Item 9A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2020, as filed with the SEC on May 7, 2021, there were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting identified in management’s evaluation pursuant to Rules 13a-15(d) and 15d-15(d) of the Exchange Act that occurred during the most recently completed fiscal quarter there has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or isare reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

 

As we continue to evaluate and work to improve our internal control over financial reporting, we may take additional measures to address the material weakness or supplement or modify certain of the remediation measures described above.

Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls

Our management does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of a simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
