Results of Operations
We have neither engaged in any operations nor generated any operating revenues to date. Our only activities from inception through June 30, 2021 were organizational activities, those necessary to prepare for the Initial Public Offering, described below, and, subsequent to the Initial Public Offering, identifying a target company for a Business Combination. We do not expect to generate any operating revenues until after the completion of our initial Business Combination. We expect to generate non-operating income in the form of interest income on marketable securities held after the Initial Public Offering. We incur expenses as a result of being a public company (for legal, financial reporting, accounting and auditing compliance), as well as for due diligence expenses in connection with searching for, and completing, a Business Combination. Additionally, we recognize non-cash gains and losses with other income (expense) related to changes in recurring fair value measurement of our warrant and FPA liabilities at each reporting period.
For the three months ended June 30, 2021, we had net loss of $2,695,148 consisting of $248,983 of loss from operations and change in the fair value of warrant liability of $5,606,333 offset by $3,160,168 of gain on termination of the FPA.
