Note 1 — Organization and Plan of Business Operations |
|
Cambridge Capital Acquisition Corporation (a company in the development stage) (the “Company”) was incorporated in Delaware on October 1, 2013 as a blank check company whose objective is to acquire, through a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or other similar business combination, one or more businesses or entities (a “Business Combination”). The Company’s efforts to identify a target business will not be limited to a particular industry or geographic region, although the Company intends to focus its search for target businesses that operate in the supply chain industry, with an emphasis on target businesses that operate in the traditional transportation and logistics end of the supply chain industry. |
|
At December 31, 2013, the Company had not yet commenced any operations. All activity through December 31, 2013 relates to the Company’s formation and the offering described below. The Company is considered to be a development stage company and, as such, the Company’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) topic 915 “Development Stage Entities.” The Company is subject to all of the risks associated with development stage companies. |
|
The registration statement for the Company’s initial public offering (“Public Offering”) was declared effective on December 17, 2013. On December 23, 2013, the Company consummated the Public Offering of 7,000,000 units (“Units”) at $10.00 per Unit and received net proceeds of $67,217,475 (net of underwriters discount of $2,275,000 and offering expenses of $507,525) and simultaneously raised $4,275,000 through the issuance of 427,500 private units (“Private Units”) at $10.00 per unit to the Company’s initial stockholders (collectively, the “Sponsors”) and the underwriters (and/or their respective designees) in a private placement (See Note 3 – Public Offering and Private Placement). |
|
On December 23, 2013, the underwriters exercised their over-allotment option and on December 30, 2013, the Company consummated the closing of the over-allotment option (the “Overallotment”). The Public Offering and the Overallotment are collectively referred to as the “Offering.” 1,050,000 units sold pursuant to the Overallotment were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $10,500,000. In a private placement that took place simultaneously with the consummation of the exercise of the over-allotment option, certain of the Sponsors and the underwriters purchased an additional 44,625 Private Units at $10.00 per Private Unit generating gross proceeds of $446,250. The private placements consummated simultaneously with the Offering are collectively referred to as the “Private Placement.” |
|
The Company’s management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the Offering and the Private Placement, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be applied generally toward consummating a Business Combination. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to effect a Business Combination successfully. The Company’s securities are listed on the Nasdaq Capital Markets (“NASDAQ”). Pursuant to the NASDAQ listing rules, the target business or businesses that the Company acquires must collectively have a fair market value equal to at least 80% of the balance of the funds in the Trust Account (defined below) at the time of the execution of a definitive agreement for its initial Business Combination, although the Company may acquire a target business whose fair market value significantly exceeds 80% of the Trust Account balance. |
|
Following the closing of the Overallotment on December 30, 2013, an amount of $81,305,000 (or $10.10 per Unit sold in the Offering), including the proceeds of the Private Placement, was placed in trust (the “Trust Account”) and may be invested in United States government treasury bills having a maturity of 180 days or less or in money market funds meeting the applicable conditions under Rule 2a-7 promulgated under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, that invest solely in U.S. treasuries until the earlier of the consummation of the initial Business Combination and the Company’s failure to consummate a Business Combination within the prescribed time. Placing funds in the Trust Account may not protect those funds from third party claims against the Company. Although the Company will seek to have all vendors, service providers, prospective target businesses or other entities it engages, execute agreements with the Company waiving any claim of any kind in or to any monies held in the Trust Account, there is no guarantee that such persons will execute such agreements. The Company’s executive officers have agreed that they will be jointly and severally liable under certain circumstances to ensure that the proceeds in the Trust Account are not reduced by the claims of target businesses or vendors or other entities that are owed money by the Company for services rendered, contracted for or products sold to the Company. However, they may not be able to satisfy those obligations should they arise. The remaining net proceeds (not held in the Trust Account) may be used to pay for business, legal and accounting due diligence on prospective acquisitions and continuing general and administrative expenses. In addition, (1) interest income on the funds held in the Trust Account can be released to the Company to pay its income and other tax obligations and (2) interest income on the funds held in the Trust Account can be released to the Company to pay for its working capital requirements in connection with searching for a Business Combination. |
|
The Company will seek shareholder approval of any Business Combination at a meeting called for such purpose at which shareholders may seek to convert their shares into their pro rata share of the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, less any taxes then due but not yet paid. The Company will proceed with a Business Combination only if it has net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001 upon consummation of the Business Combination and a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock of the Company voted are voted in favor of the Business Combination. In connection with any shareholder vote required to approve any Business Combination, the Sponsors agreed (i) to vote any of their respective shares, including the 2,012,500 shares of common stock sold to the Sponsors in connection with the organization of the Company (the “Sponsors’ Shares”), shares of common stock sold to Sponsors in connection with the Private Placement, and any shares of common stock which were initially issued in connection with the Offering, whether acquired in or after the Offering, in favor of the initial Business Combination and (ii) not to convert such respective shares into a pro rata portion of the Trust Account. |
|
The Company’s amended and restated Certificate of Incorporation provides that the Company will continue in existence only until June 23, 2015 (or December 23, 2015 if the Company has executed a definitive agreement for an initial Business Combination by June 23, 2015, but has not completed the initial Business Combination by June 23, 2015). If the Company has not completed a Business Combination by such date, the Company will, as promptly as possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem from holders of the outstanding shares sold in the Offering (“Public Stockholders”) 100% of such shares for a pro rata portion of the funds held in the Trust Account and then seek to dissolve and liquidate. In the event of a liquidation, the Public Stockholders will be entitled to receive a full pro rata interest in the Trust Account (initially anticipated to be $10.10 per share after the closing of the Overallotment, plus any pro rata interest earned on the Trust Account not previously released to the Company). The Company’s Sponsors and purchasers of the Private Units have agreed not to participate in such redemption, except with respect to any shares of common stock which were issued in connection with the Offering. |
