Results of Operations
Since the closing of our Initial Public Offering, our activity has been limited to evaluating and searching for business combination candidates. As of June 30, 2022, we had not identified any business combination target. We generated non-operating income in the form of interest income on cash and marketable securities held in the Trust Account. We expect to continue to incur expenses as a result of being a public company (for legal fees; financial reporting; accounting and auditing compliance), as well as increase expenses for due diligence expenses.
For the three months ended June 30, 2022, we had net income of approximately $17,000, which consisted of approximately $175,000 of income from investments held in our Trust Account, partially offset by approximately $159,000 in general and administrative costs.
For the three months ended June 30, 2021, we had net loss of approximately $200,000, which consisted of approximately $204,000 in general and administrative costs, partially offset by approximately $3,000 of income from investments held in our Trust Account.
For the six months ended June 30, 2022, we had net loss of approximately $247,000, which consisted of approximately $434,000 in general and administrative costs, partially offset by approximately $188,000 of income from investments held in our Trust Account.
For the six months ended June 30, 2021, we had net loss of approximately $482,000, which consisted of approximately $488,000 in general and administrative costs, partially offset by approximately $6,000 of income from investments held in our Trust Account.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of June 30, 2022, we had approximately $195,000 in our operating bank account and a working capital of approximately $424,000.
Our liquidity needs to date have been satisfied through a contribution of $25,000 from our Sponsor to cover certain expenses in exchange for our issuance of certain Class B ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Founder Shares”), a loan of approximately $98,000 through December 31, 2020 and approximately $145,000 in total of loans prior to the Initial Public Offering from our Sponsor pursuant to a promissory note (the “Note”), and since the Initial Public Offering, the proceeds from the consummation of the Private Placement not held in the Trust Account. We fully repaid the Note on January 13, 2021. No future borrowings are permitted under this Note. In addition, in order to finance transaction costs in connection with a business combination, our Sponsor or an affiliate of our Sponsor, or our officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, provide us working capital loans. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, there were no working capital loans outstanding.
We intend to use substantially all of the net proceeds of the Initial Public Offering, including the funds held in the Trust Account (including interest accrued thereon), in connection with our business combination and to pay our expenses relating thereto, including a deferred underwriting commission payable to the underwriters from our Initial Public Offering upon consummation of our initial business combination. To the extent that our ordinary shares are used in whole or in part as consideration to effect our initial business combination, the remaining proceeds held in the Trust Account, as well as any other net proceeds not expended, will be used as working capital to finance the operations of the target business. Such working capital funds could be used in a variety of ways including continuing or expanding the target business’ operations, for strategic acquisitions and for marketing, research and development of existing or new products. Such funds could also be used to repay any operating expenses or finders’ fees which we may incur prior to the completion of our initial business combination, if the funds available to us outside of the Trust Account are insufficient to cover such expenses.
Based on the foregoing, management believes that we will have sufficient working capital and borrowing capacity from our Sponsor or an affiliate of our Sponsor, or our officers and directors, to meet our needs through the consummation of a business combination. However, in connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) ASC 205-40, “Presentation of Financial Statements - Going Concern,” management has determined that the mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. No adjustments have been made to the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities should the Company be required to liquidate after January 11, 2023. Management plans to complete a business combination prior to the end of the Combination Period.
