If we have not completed our initial Business Combination within 18 months (unless such a period is extended as described herein), we will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem the Public Shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest (which interest shall be net of taxes payable, and less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses) divided by the number of then outstanding Public Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish Public Shareholder’s rights as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any), subject to applicable law, and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the remaining shareholders and the board of directors, liquidate and dissolve, subject in each case to our obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. There will be no redemption rights or liquidating distributions with respect to our warrants, which will expire worthless if we fail to consummate a Business Combination within 18 months (unless such period is extended as described herein).
If we anticipate that we may not be able to consummate a Business Combination within 18 months, we may extend the combination period. In order to extend the time available for us to consummate a Business Combination, our Sponsor or its affiliate or designees must deposit into the Trust Account approximately $1.1 million ($0.033 per public share), on or prior to the date of the applicable deadline, for each monthly extension, up to an aggregate of approximately $6.8 million, or $0.198 per public share, if we effect extension for up to six months in aggregate.
Liquidity and Going Concern
As of September 30, 2021, we had approximately $74,000 in our operating bank account and a working capital deficit of approximately $1.2 million.
To date, our liquidity needs have been satisfied through a payment of $25,000 from our Sponsor to cover certain expenses on our behalf in exchange for the issuance of the Founder Shares to our Sponsor, a loan of approximately $188,000 pursuant to a promissory note issued to our Sponsor and the net proceeds from the consummation of the Private Placement not held in the Trust Account. We repaid the promissory note on September 3, 2020. In addition, in order to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, our Sponsor provided us a Working Capital Loan. As of September 30, 2021, $30,000 was drawn under the Working Capital Loan. A further $50,000 was drawn under the Working Capital Loan on October 8, 2021.
We plan to continue our efforts to complete a Business Combination within 18 months of the closing of the Initial Public Offering, or February 28, 2022 (unless such a period is extended as described herein). We believe that the funds currently available to it outside of the Trust Account will be sufficient to allow it to operate until February 28, 2022; however, there can be no assurances that its estimate is accurate.
In connection with our assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 205-40, “Presentation of Financial Statements - Going Concern,” our management has determined that the mandatory liquidation date and subsequent dissolution raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. If we are unable to complete a Business Combination by February 28, 2022 (unless such a period is extended as described herein), then we will cease all operations except for the purpose of liquidating. No adjustments have been made to the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities should we be required to liquidate after February 28, 2022.
Results of Operations
Our entire activity since inception up to September 30, 2021 related to our formation, the preparation for the Initial Public Offering, and since the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the search for a prospective initial Business Combination. We will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of our initial Business Combination. We generate non-operating income in the form of investment income from the Trust Account. We will continue to incur increased expenses as a result of being a public company (for legal, financial reporting, accounting and auditing compliance), as well as for due diligence expenses.
For the three months ended September 30, 2021, we had net income of approximately $3.0 million, which consisted of a gain of approximately $4.6 million from changes in the fair value of derivative warrant liabilities and approximately $5,000 in investment income from the Trust Account, partially offset by approximately $1.6 million in general and administrative expenses and approximately $1,000 from changes in the fair value of the working capital loan.
