On March 2, 2021, the Company consummated the Initial Public Offering of 13,800,000 units (the “Units” and, with respect to the Class A ordinary shares included in the Units being offered, the “Public Shares”), which includes the full exercise by the underwriter of its over-allotment option in the amount of 1,800,000 Units, at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $138,000,000 which is described in Note 3. Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the sale of 4,835,000 warrants (the “Private Placement Warrants”) at a price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant in a private placement to PIPV Capital LLC (the “Sponsor”), generating gross proceeds of $4,835,000, which is described in Note 4. Transaction costs amounted to $8,359,325, consisting of $2,760,000 of underwriting fees, $4,830,000 of deferred underwriting fees and $769,325 of other offering costs. Following the closing of the Initial Public Offering on March 2, 2021, an amount of $138,000,000 ($10.00 per Unit) from the net proceeds of the sale of the Units in the Initial Public Offering and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants was placed in a trust account (the “Trust Account”), and was 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 185 days or less, or in any open-ended investment company that holds itself out as a money market fund meeting certain conditions of Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act, as determined by the Company, until the earlier of: (i) the completion of a Business Combination and (ii) the distribution of the funds in the Trust Account, as described below. The Company’s management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be applied generally toward consummating a Business Combination. The Company must complete a Business Combination with one or more target businesses that together have an aggregate fair market value of at least 80% of the value of the Trust Account (excluding the deferred underwriting commissions and taxes payable on income earned on the Trust Account) at the time of the agreement to enter into a Business Combination. The Company will only complete a Business Combination if the post-Business Combination company owns or acquires 50% or more of the issued and outstanding voting securities of the target or otherwise acquires a controlling interest in the target business sufficient for it not to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully effect a Business Combination. The Company will provide its holders of the outstanding Public Shares (the “public shareholders”) with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares upon the completion of a Business Combination either (i) in connection with a shareholder meeting called to approve the Business Combination or (ii) by means of a tender offer. The decision as to whether the Company will seek shareholder approval of a Business Combination or conduct a tender offer will be made by the Company, solely in its discretion. The public shareholders will be entitled to redeem their Public Shares for a pro rata portion of the amount then in the Trust Account (initially $10.00 per Public Share, plus any pro rata interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay its tax obligations). There will be no redemption rights upon the completion of a Business Combination with respect to the Company’s warrants. The Company will proceed with a Business Combination only if the Company has net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001 either immediately prior to or upon such consummation of a Business Combination and, if the Company seeks shareholder approval, in connection with a Business Combination, it receives an ordinary resolution under Cayman Islands law approving a Business Combination, which requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the shareholders who vote at a general meeting of the Company. If a shareholder vote is not required by law and the Company does not decide to hold a shareholder vote for business or other reasons, the Company will, pursuant to its Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association (the “Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association”), conduct the redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and file tender offer documents containing substantially the same information as would be included in a proxy statement with the SEC prior to completing a Business Combination. If the Company seeks shareholder approval in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor has agreed to vote its Founder Shares (as defined in Note 5) and any Public Shares purchased during or after the Initial Public Offering in favor of approving a Business Combination. Additionally, each public shareholder may elect to redeem their Public Shares irrespective of whether they vote for or against the proposed transaction or do not vote at all. Notwithstanding the above, if the Company seeks shareholder approval of a Business Combination and it does not conduct redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules, the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association provides that a public shareholder, together with any affiliate of such shareholder or any other person with whom such shareholder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined under Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), will be restricted from redeeming its shares with respect to more than an aggregate of 15% or more of the Public Shares, without the prior consent of the Company. The Sponsor has agreed (a) to waive its redemption rights with respect to its Founder Shares and Public Shares held by it in connection with the completion of a Business Combination, and (b) not to propose an amendment to the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association (i) to modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to allow redemption in connection with the Company’s initial Business Combination or to redeem 100% of its Public Shares if the Company does not complete a Business Combination or (ii) with respect to any other provision relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-initial business combination activity, unless the Company provides the public shareholders with the opportunity to redeem their Public Shares in conjunction with any such amendment. The Company has until March 2, 2023 to complete a Business Combination (the “Combination Period”). If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the Company will: (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up; (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than 10 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 earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay its tax obligations (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 shareholders’ rights as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidating distributions, if any); and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the Company’s remaining shareholders and the Company’s board of directors, dissolve and liquidate, subject in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) to the Company’s 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 the Company’s warrants, which will expire worthless if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period. The Sponsor has agreed to waive its liquidation rights with respect to the Founder Shares if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period. However, if the Sponsor acquires Public Shares in or after the Initial Public Offering, such Public Shares will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period. The underwriters have agreed to waive their rights to their deferred underwriting discount (see Note 6) held in the Trust Account in the event the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period and, in such event, such amounts will be included with the funds held in the Trust Account that will be available to fund the redemption of the Public Shares. In the event of such distribution, it is possible that the per share value of the assets remaining available for distribution will be less than the Initial Public Offering price per Unit ($10.00). In order to protect the amounts held in the Trust Account, the Sponsor has agreed to be liable to the Company if and to the extent any claims by a third party for services rendered or products sold to the Company, or a prospective target business with which the Company has discussed entering into a transaction agreement, reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account to below the lesser of (1) $10.00 per Public Share and (2) the actual amount per Public Share held in the Trust Account as of the date of the liquidation of the Trust Account, if less than $10.00 per share due to reductions in the value of the trust assets, less taxes payable; provided that such liability will not apply to any claims by a third party or prospective target business who executed a waiver of any and all rights to the monies held in the Trust Account nor will it apply to any claims under the Company’s indemnity of the underwriters of the Initial Public Offering against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). Moreover, in the event that an executed waiver is deemed to be unenforceable against a third party, the Sponsor will not be responsible to the extent of any liability for such third-party claims. The Company will seek to reduce the possibility that the Sponsor will have to indemnify the Trust Account due to claims of creditors by endeavoring to have all vendors, service providers (except the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm), prospective target businesses or other entities with which the Company does business, execute agreements with the Company waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to monies held in the Trust Account. Going Concern and Liquidity As of September 30, 2022, the Company had $4,453 in its operating bank account, $138,842,046 in securities held in the Trust Account to be used for a Business Combination or to repurchase or redeem its Public Shares in connection therewith and working capital deficit of $355,801. As of September 30, 2022, $842,046 of the amount on deposit in the Trust Account represented interest income, which is available for the Company to pay its tax obligations (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses). As of September 30, 2022 the Company’s liquidity needs have been satisfied through receipt of a $25,000 capital contribution from the Sponsor in exchange for the issuance of the Founder Shares to the Sponsor, remaining proceeds from the Initial Public Offering and sale of Private Placement Warrants and notes payable to the Sponsor. The Company expects to continue to incur significant costs in pursuit of its financing and acquisitions plans. In the event the Company does not complete a Business Combination by the date for mandatory liquidation of March 2, 2023, the Company is required to redeem the public shares sold in the Initial Public Offering. Additionally, if the Company is unable to raise additional capital, it may be required to take additional measures to conserve liquidity, which could include, but not necessarily be limited to, suspending the pursuit of a Business Combination. The Company cannot provide any assurance that new financing will be available to it on commercially acceptable terms, if at all. As a result of the above, in connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with Financial Accounting Standard Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification Subtopic 205-40, “Presentation of Financial Statements – Going Concern,” management has determined that the liquidity condition and date for mandatory liquidation and dissolution raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern through approximately one year from the date these financial statements were issued. These unaudited condensed 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. In addition, in order to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor, or certain of the Company’s officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company Working Capital Loans (Note 5). Except for the foregoing, the terms of such Working Capital Loans, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such loans. The Working Capital Loans would either be repaid upon consummation of a Business Combination, without interest, or, at the lender’s discretion, up to $1.5 million of such Working Capital Loans may be convertible into warrants at a price of $1.00 per warrant. The warrants would be identical to the Private Placement Warrants. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company has no borrowings under the Working Capital Loans. |

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | |
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X of the SEC. Certain information or footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC for interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of a normal recurring nature, which are necessary for a fair statement of the financial position operating results and cash flows for the periods presented. The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2021, as filed with the SEC on March 31, 2022. The interim results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2022 or for any future periods. 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 auditor 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 which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used. Use of Estimates The preparation of the condensed financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the Company’s 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 of 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 confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. Concentrations of Credit Risk Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to credit risk consist principally of cash and marketable securities held in the Trust Account. Cash is maintained in accounts with financial institutions, which, at times may exceed the federal depository insurance coverage of $250,000. The Company has not experienced losses on its cash accounts and management believes, based upon the quality of the financial institutions, that the credit risk with regard to these deposits is not significant. The Company’s marketable securities held in the Trust Account consists entirely of U.S. government securities with an original maturity of 180 days or less. Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers all short-term investments with an original maturity of 180 days or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. The Company did not have any cash equivalents as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. Marketable Securities Held in Trust Account The Company’s portfolio of marketable securities held in the Trust Account are comprised solely of U.S. government securities, within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act, with a maturity of 180 days or less, classified as trading securities. Trading securities are presented on the unaudited condensed balance sheets at fair value at the end of each reporting period. Gains and losses resulting from the change in fair value of these securities and interest earnings is included in interest earnings on marketable securities held in Trust Account, in the accompanying unaudited condensed statements of operations. The fair value for trading securities is determined using quoted market prices in active markets. Warrant Liability The Company accounts for warrants for the Company’s ordinary shares as liabilities at fair value on the unaudited condensed balance sheets because the warrants do not meet the criteria for classification within equity. The warrants are subject to remeasurement at each balance sheet date and any change in fair value is recognized in the unaudited condensed statements of operations. The Company will continue to adjust the liability for changes in fair value until the earlier of the exercise or expiration of the warrants. Fair Value Measurements Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820, Fair Value Measurement The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). These tiers include: ● Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets; ● Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable such as quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and ● Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions, such as valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the recorded values of cash, prepaid expenses, and accrued expenses approximate the fair values due to the short-term nature of the instruments. The Company’s marketable securities held in the Trust Account are comprised of U.S. government securities with an original maturity of 180 days or less. The fair value for trading securities is determined using quoted market prices in active markets. Offering Costs Associated with the Initial Public Offering Offering costs incurred in connection with preparation of the Initial Public Offering, of approximately $8.4 million, consisted principally of underwriter discounts of $7.6 million (including $4.8 million of which payment is deferred) and approximately $769,000 of professional, printing, filing, regulatory and other costs. These expenses, together with the underwriting discounts and commissions, were allocated to the Class A ordinary shares and the warrants. Amounts allocated to the Class A ordinary shares of $7,995,004 were recognized as a reduction to the Class A ordinary shares carrying value and the amounts allocated to the public warrants of $364,321 were expensed immediately. Ordinary Shares Subject to Possible Redemption The Company accounts for its Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity. The Company’s Class A ordinary shares feature certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to the occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, 13,800,000 ordinary shares subject to possible redemption are presented as temporary equity outside of the shareholders’ equity section of the Company’s unaudited condensed balance sheets. The Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption are subject to the subsequent measurement guidance in ASC 480-10-S99. Under such guidance, the Company must subsequently measure the shares to their redemption amount because, as a result of the allocation of net proceeds to the Public Warrants, the initial carrying amount of the ordinary shares is less than $10.00 per share. The Company recognizes changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and adjusts the carrying value of redeemable ordinary shares to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Immediately upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company recognized the subsequent measurement of the initial book value to redemption amount. Subsequent measurement to the carrying value of redeemable Class A ordinary shares is due to interest income and unrealized gains or losses on the marketable securities held in the Trust Account. Such changes are reflected in additional paid-in capital, or in the absence of additional paid-in capital, in accumulated deficit. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company recorded an accretion of $825,106 and $13,393,944, of which $0 and $991,655 was recorded in additional paid-in capital and $825,106 and $12,402,289 was recorded in accumulated deficit, respectively. Net Income (Loss) Per Ordinary Share The unaudited condensed statements of operations include a presentation of income (loss) per Class A redeemable public share and income (loss) per non-redeemable share following the two-class method of income per share. In order to determine the net income (loss) attributable to both the Class A redeemable shares and non-redeemable shares, the Company first considered the total income (loss) allocable to both sets of shares. This is calculated using the total net income (loss) less any dividends paid. For purposes of calculating net income (loss) per share, the accretion to redemption value of the Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption was considered to be dividends paid to the public shareholders. Subsequent to calculating the total income (loss) allocable to both sets of shares, the company split the amount to be allocated using a ratio of 80% for the Class A public shares and 20% for the non-redeemable shares for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, reflective of the respective participation rights. The earnings per share presented in the unaudited condensed statements of operations is based on the following: For the three For the three months ended months ended September 30, 2022 September 30, 2021 Net income $ 789,819 $ 1,731,205 Less: Accretion of temporary equity to redemption value (733,323) (3,404) Net income including accretion of temporary equity to redemption value $ 56,496 $ 1,727,801 For the three months ended September 30, 2022 2021 Class A Class B Class A Class B Basic and diluted net income per share: Numerator: Allocation of net income including accretion of temporary equity $ 45,197 $ 11,299 $ 1,382,241 $ 345,560 Accretion of temporary equity to redemption value 733,323 — 3,404 — Allocation of net income $ 778,520 $ 11,299 $ 1,385,645 $ 345,560 Denominator: Weighted-average shares outstanding 13,800,000 3,450,000 13,800,000 3,450,000 Basic and diluted net income per share $ 0.06 $ 0.00 $ 0.10 $ 0.10 For the For the nine months ended nine months ended September 30, 2022 September 30, 2021 Net income $ 5,836,561 $ 1,213,240 Accretion of temporary equity to redemption value (825,106) (13,389,123) Net income (loss) including accretion of temporary equity to redemption value $ 5,011,455 $ (12,175,883) For the nine months ended September 30, 2022 2021 Class A Class B Class A Class B Basic and diluted net income (loss) per share: Numerator: Allocation of net income (loss) including accretion of temporary equity $ 4,009,164 $ 1,002,291 $ (9,740,706) $ (2,435,177) Accretion of temporary equity to redemption value 825,106 — 13,389,123 — Allocation of net income (loss) $ 4,834,270 $ 1,002,291 $ 3,648,417 $ (2,435,177) Denominator: Weighted-average shares outstanding 13,800,000 3,450,000 10,716,484 3,349,451 Basic and diluted net income (loss) per share $ 0.35 $ 0.29 $ 0.34 $ (0.73) In connection with the underwriters’ full exercise of the over-allotment option on March 2, 2021, 450,000 Founder Shares were no longer subject to forfeiture. These shares were excluded from the calculation of weighted average shares outstanding until they were no longer subject to forfeiture. As of September 30, 2022 and 2021, there are no other dilutive securities and other contracts that could, potentially, be exercised or converted into ordinary shares and then share in our earnings. As a result, diluted loss per share is the same as basic loss per share for the periods presented. The Founder Shares were not included to calculate earnings per share as including the Founder Shares would be anti-dilutive. Income Taxes ASC 740, Income Taxes There is currently no taxation imposed on income by the government of the Cayman Islands. In accordance with Cayman income tax regulations, income taxes are not levied on the Company. Consequently, income taxes are not reflected in the Company’s unaudited condensed financial statements. Risks and Uncertainties Management continues to evaluate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the industry and has concluded that while it is reasonably possible that the virus could have a negative effect on the Company’s financial position, results of its operations, liquidity and/or search for a target company, the specific impact is not readily determinable as of the date of these unaudited condensed financial statements. The unaudited condensed financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. The credit and financial markets have experienced extreme volatility and disruptions due to the current conflict between Ukraine and Russia. The conflict is expected to have further global economic consequences, including but not limited to the possibility of severely diminished liquidity and credit availability, declines in consumer confidence, declines in economic growth, increases in inflation rates and uncertainty about economic and political stability. In addition, the United States and other countries have imposed sanctions on Russia which increases the risk that Russia, as a retaliatory action, may launch cyberattacks against the United States, its government, infrastructure and businesses. Any of the foregoing consequences, including those we cannot yet predict, may cause our business, financial condition, results of operations and the price of our ordinary shares to be adversely affected.

PRIVATE PLACEMENT Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Sponsor purchased an aggregate of 4,835,000 Private Placement Warrants at a price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant, for an aggregate purchase price of $4,835,000 from the Company in a private placement. Each Private Placement Warrant is exercisable to purchase one Class A ordinary share at a price of $11.50 per share. The proceeds from the Private Placement Warrants were added to the proceeds from the Initial Public Offering held in the Trust Account. If the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the proceeds of the sale of the Private Placement Warrants will be used to fund the redemption of the Public Shares (subject to the requirements of applicable law) and the Private Placement Warrants will expire worthless. The difference between the initial fair value of $0.80 per Private Placement Warrants (or $3,868,000) (see Note 9) and the purchase of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrants of $967,000 was recorded in additional paid-in capital. |

RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS | NOTE 5. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS Founder Shares On November 15, 2020, the Sponsor purchased 2,875,000 Class B ordinary shares (the “Founder Shares”) for an aggregate consideration of $25,000. On January 11, 2021, the Sponsor transferred an aggregate of 100,000 Founder Shares to four members of the Company’s board of directors (each received 25,000 Founder Shares). On February 25, 2021, the Company effected a share dividend of 575,000 Class B ordinary shares, resulting in there being an aggregate of 3,450,000 Founder Shares outstanding. As a result of the underwriters’ election to fully exercise their over-allotment option, no Founder Shares are currently subject to forfeiture. The Sponsor has agreed that, subject to certain limited exceptions, the Founder Shares will not be transferred, assigned, sold or released from escrow until the earlier of (A) one year after the completion of a Business Combination or (B) subsequent to a Business Combination, (x) if the last reported sale price of the Class A ordinary shares equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for share sub-divisions, share capitalizations reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after a Business Combination, or (y) the date on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, share exchange or other similar transaction that results in all of the shareholders having the right to exchange their ordinary shares for cash, securities or other property. The sale or transfers of the Founders Shares to members of the Company’s board of directors, as described above, is within the scope of FASB ASC Topic 718, “Compensation-Stock Compensation” (“ASC 718”). Under ASC 718, stock-based compensation associated with equity-classified awards is measured at fair value upon the grant date. The fair value of the 100,000 shares granted to the Company’s board of directors was $401,000 or $4.01 per share. The Founders Shares were effectively sold or transferred subject to a performance condition (i.e., the occurrence of a Business Combination). Compensation expense related to the Founders Shares is recognized only when the performance condition is probable of occurrence under the applicable accounting literature in this circumstance. A business combination is not probable until it is completed. Stock-based compensation would be recognized at the date a Business Combination is considered probable in an amount equal to the number of Founders Shares times the grant date fair value per share (unless subsequently modified) less the amount initially received for the purchase of the Founders Shares. As of September 30, 2022, the Company determined that a Business Combination is not considered probable, and, therefore, no stock-based compensation expense has been recognized. Related Party Units Purchased Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, one of the Company’s directors purchased 10,000 Units sold at the Initial Public Offering at a price of $10.00 per Unit, for an aggregate purchase price of $100,000. If the Company seeks shareholder approval in connection with a Business Combination, the director has agreed to vote his Public Shares in favor of approving a Business Combination. The director has agreed to not redeem any shares of Class A ordinary shares in connection with shareholder approval of the Business Combination. There are no restrictions on the sale of any of the units purchased, and, therefore, the Class A ordinary shares is not contingent to this restriction. Accordingly, these Public Shares are recorded in Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption. Administrative Services Agreement The Company entered into an agreement, commencing on February 25, 2021, through the earlier of the Company’s consummation of a Business Combination and its liquidation, to pay the Sponsor a total of up to $10,000 per month for office space, utilities and secretarial and administrative support. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company incurred and paid $30,000 and $90,000 in fees for these services, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company incurred and paid $30,000 and $70,000 in fees for these services. Promissory Notes — Related Party On November 15, 2020, the Company issued a promissory note (the “Promissory Note”) to the Sponsor, pursuant to which the Company could borrow up to an aggregate principal amount of $300,000. The Promissory Note was non-interest bearing and payable on the earlier of (i) June 30, 2021 or (i) the consummation of the Initial Public Offering. The Company borrowed $200,159 under the Promissory Note, and fully repaid the Promissory Note on April 16, 2021. On May 5, 2022, the Company issued a promissory note to the Sponsor, pursuant to which the Company borrowed an aggregate principal amount of $80,040 from the Sponsor (the “Simple Promissory Note”). The Simple Promissory Note is non-interest bearing and payable upon a Business Combination. On June 30, 2022, the Company issued an additional Simple Promissory Note to the Sponsor, pursuant to which the Company borrowed an aggregate principal amount of $79,626 from the Sponsor. As of September 30, 2022, the Company repaid $800 of the Simple Promissory Notes. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had $158,866 outstanding borrowings under the Simple Promissory Note and $0 outstanding borrowings under the Promissory Note, respectively. Related Party Loans In order to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor or certain of the Company’s directors and officers may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds as may be required (“Working Capital Loans”). If the Company completes a Business Combination, the Company will repay the Working Capital Loans out of the proceeds of the Trust Account released to the Company. Otherwise, the Working Capital Loans would be repaid only out of funds held outside the Trust Account. In the event that a Business Combination does not close, the Company may use a portion of proceeds held outside the Trust Account to repay the Working Capital Loans, but no proceeds held in the Trust Account would be used to repay the Working Capital Loans. Except for the foregoing, the terms of such Working Capital Loans, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such loans. The Working Capital Loans would either be repaid upon consummation of a Business Combination, without interest, or, at the lender’s discretion, up to $1,500,000 of such Working Capital Loans may be convertible into warrants of the post-Business Combination entity at a price of $1.00 per warrant. The warrants would be identical to the Private Placement Warrants. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company has not entered into any related party loans. |

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES | NOTE 6. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Registration and Shareholder Rights Pursuant to a registration rights agreement entered into on February 25, 2021, the holders of the Founder Shares, Private Placement Warrants and warrants that may be issued upon conversion of the Working Capital Loans (and any Class A ordinary shares issuable upon the exercise of the Private Placement Warrants and warrants that may be issued upon conversion of Working Capital Loans and upon conversion of the Founder Shares) have registration rights requiring the Company to register a sale of any of its securities held by them. The holders of these securities will be entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short form demands, that the Company register such securities under the Securities Act. In addition, the holders will have certain “piggy-back” registration rights to include their securities in other registration statements filed by the Company, subject to certain limitations. The registration rights agreement does not contain liquidated damages or other cash settlement provisions resulting from delays in registering the Company’s securities. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements. Underwriting Agreement The underwriters are entitled to a deferred fee of $0.35 per Unit, or $4,830,000 in the aggregate. The deferred fee will become payable to the underwriters from the amounts held in the Trust Account solely in the event that the Company completes a Business Combination, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement. If the Business Combination does not occur, the fee is forfeited. Contingent Fees As of September 30, 2022, the Company incurred legal fees of approximately $935,000. These fees will only become due and payable upon the consummation of an initial Business Combination. As of September 30, 2022, the Company incurred consulting fees of approximately $40,000. These fees will only become due and payable upon the consummation of an initial Business Combination. |

SHAREHOLDERS' DEFICIT | NOTE 7. SHAREHOLDERS’ DEFICIT Preference Shares — Class A Ordinary Shares — Class B Ordinary Shares — Prior to a Business Combination, only holders of the Founder Shares will have the right to vote on the appointment of directors. Holders of the Public Shares will not be entitled to vote on the appointment of directors during such time. In addition, prior to the completion of a Business Combination, holders of a majority of the Founder Shares may remove a member of the board of directors for any reason. Holders of Class A ordinary shares and Class B ordinary shares will vote together as a single class on all matters submitted to a vote of shareholders. The Class B ordinary shares will automatically convert into Class A ordinary shares at the time of a Business Combination, or earlier at the option of the holder, on a one-for-one basis, subject to adjustment. In the case that additional Class A ordinary shares or equity-linked securities are issued or deemed issued in connection with a Business Combination, the number of Class A ordinary shares issuable upon conversion of all Founder Shares will equal, in the aggregate, on an as-converted basis, 20% of the sum of the total number of all ordinary shares outstanding upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering, plus the total number of Class A ordinary shares issued, or deemed issued or issuable upon conversion or exercise of any equity-linked securities or rights issued or deemed issued, by the Company in connection with or in relation to the consummation of a Business Combination, excluding any Class A ordinary shares or equity-linked securities exercisable for or convertible into Class A ordinary shares issued, or to be issued, to any seller in a Business Combination and any private placement-equivalent warrants issued to the Sponsor, officers or directors upon conversion of Working Capital Loans, except that such conversion of Founder Shares will never occur on a less than one for one basis. |

WARRANTS. | |
WARRANTS | NOTE 8. WARRANTS Warrants The Company will not be obligated to deliver any Class A ordinary shares pursuant to the exercise of a Public Warrant and will have no obligation to settle such Public Warrant exercise unless a registration statement under the Securities Act covering the issuance of the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants is then effective and a current prospectus relating thereto is available, subject to the Company satisfying its obligations with respect to registration, or a valid exemption from registration is available. No warrant will be exercisable for cash or on a cashless basis and the Company will not be obligated to issue any shares to holders seeking to exercise their warrants unless the issuance of the shares upon such exercise is registered or qualified under the securities laws of the state of the exercising holder, or an exemption is available. The Company has agreed that as soon as practicable, but in no event later than 15 business days, after the closing of a Business Combination, it will use its commercially reasonable efforts to file with the SEC a registration statement covering the issuance, under the Securities Act, of the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants, and the Company will use its best efforts to file with the SEC a registration statement registering the issuance of the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants, to cause such registration statement to become effective and to maintain a current prospectus relating to those Class A ordinary shares until the warrants expire or are redeemed, as specified in the warrant agreement. If a registration statement covering the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants is not effective by the 60 th Once the warrants become exercisable, the Company may redeem the outstanding Public Warrants: ● in whole and not in part; ● at a price of $0.01 per warrant; ● upon not less than 30 days ’ prior written notice of redemption (the “ 30 -day redemption period”) to each warrant holder; and ● if, and only if, the reported closing price of the Class A ordinary shares equals or exceeds $18.00 per share (as adjusted for share sub-divisions, share capitalizations, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within a 30- trading day period ending three business days before the Company sends the notice of redemption to the warrant holders. If and when the warrants become redeemable by the Company, the Company may exercise its redemption right even if the Company is unable to register or qualify the underlying securities for sale under all applicable state securities laws. The exercise price and number of ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the Public Warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances including in the event of a share dividend, extraordinary dividend or recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation. However, except as described below, the Public Warrants will not be adjusted for issuances of ordinary shares at a price below its exercise price. Additionally, in no event will the Company be required to net cash settle the Public Warrants. If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period and the Company liquidates the funds held in the Trust Account, holders of Public Warrants will not receive any of such funds with respect to their Public Warrants, nor will they receive any distribution from the Company’s assets held outside of the Trust Account with respect to such Public Warrants. Accordingly, the Public Warrants may expire worthless. In addition, if (x) the Company issues additional Class A ordinary shares or equity-linked securities for capital raising purposes in connection with the closing of a Business Combination at an issue price or effective issue price of less than $9.20 per Class A ordinary share (with such issue price or effective issue price to be determined in good faith by the Company’s board of directors and, in the case of any such issuance to the Sponsor or its affiliates, without taking into account any Founder Shares held by the Sponsor or such affiliates, as applicable, prior to such issuance) (the “Newly Issued Price”), (y) the aggregate gross proceeds from such issuances represent more than 60% of the total equity proceeds, and interest thereon, available for the funding of a Business Combination on the date of the consummation of a Business Combination (net of redemptions), and (z) the volume weighted average trading price of the Company’s Class A ordinary shares during the 20 trading day period starting on the trading day prior to the day on which the Company consummates a Business Combination (such price, the “Market Value”) is below $9.20 per share, the exercise price of the warrants will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 115% of the higher of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price, and the $18.00 per share redemption trigger price will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 180% of the higher of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price. The Private Placement Warrants are identical to the Public Warrants underlying the Units sold in the Initial Public Offering, except that the Private Placement Warrants and the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon the exercise of the Private Placement Warrants will not be transferable, assignable or salable until 30 days after the completion of a Business Combination, subject to certain limited exceptions. Additionally, the Private Placement Warrants will be exercisable on a cashless basis and be non-redeemable, except as described above, so long as they are held by the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees. If the Private Placement Warrants are held by someone other than the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees, the Private Placement Warrants will be redeemable by the Company and exercisable by such holders on the same basis as the Public Warrants. |

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS | |
FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS | NOTE 9. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS At September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, assets held in the Trust Account were comprised of $138,842,046 and $138,016,940 in money market funds which are invested primarily in U.S. Treasury Securities. The following table presents information about the Company’s assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation inputs the Company utilized to determine such fair value. Description Level September 30, 2022 December 31, 2021 Assets: Marketable securities held in Trust Account 1 $ 138,842,046 $ 138,016,940 Liabilities: Warrant Liability – Public Warrants 1 552,000 3,726,000 Warrant Liability – Private Placement Warrants 2 96,700 2,610,900 The Warrants were accounted for as liabilities in accordance with ASC 815-40 and are presented within warrant liabilities on the accompanying unaudited condensed balance sheets. The warrant liabilities are measured at fair value at inception and on a recurring basis, with changes in fair value presented within change in fair value of warrant liabilities in the unaudited condensed statements of operations. Initial Measurement The Company established the initial fair value for the Warrants on March 2, 2021, the date of the Company’s Initial Public Offering, using a Monte-Carlo simulation model for the Private Placement Warrants and the Public Warrants. The Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants were initially recorded at a fair value of $5,382,000 and $3,868,000, respectively. The Warrants were classified as Level 3 at the initial measurement date due to the use of unobservable inputs. The key inputs into the Monte-Carlo simulation model for the Private Placement Warrants were as follows at initial measurement: March 2, 2021 (Initial Input Measurement) Risk-free interest rate 0.82 % Term in years 5.8 Expected volatility 14.0 % Exercise price $ 11.50 Stock Price $ 9.60 On March 2, 2021, the Private Placement Warrants and Public Warrants were determined to be $0.80 and $0.78 per warrant for aggregate values of $3.87 million and $5.38 million, respectively. Subsequent Measurement The Warrants are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. For periods subsequent to the detachment of the Public Warrants from the Units, which occurred on April 20, 2021, the Public Warrants were valued using the instrument’s publicly listed trading price on the New York Stock Exchange as of the balance sheet date, which is considered to be a Level 1 measurement due to the use of an observable market quote in an active market. For periods subsequent to the detachment of the Public Warrants from the Units, the Private Placement Warrants were valued using the Public Warrant trading price, which is considered to be a Level 2 measurement due to the use of an observable market quote for a similar asset in an active market. The following table presents the changes in the fair value of the Level 3 warrant liabilities: Private Placement Public Warrant Liabilities Fair value as of December 31, 2020 $ — $ — $ — Initial measurement on March 2, 2021 (IPO) as restated 3,868,000 5,382,000 9,250,000 Change in valuation inputs or other assumptions (1,257,100) (1,656,000) (2,913,100) Transfer to Level 1 — (3,726,000) (3,726,000) Transfer to Level 2 (2,610,900) — (2,610,900) Fair value as of December 31, 2021 $ — $ — $ — Transfers to/from Levels 1, 2 and 3 are recognized at the end of the reporting period in which a change in valuation technique or methodology occurs. The estimated fair value of the Private Placement Warrants transferred from a Level 3 measurement to a Level 2 measurement when the Public Warrants were separately listed and traded. The transfers out of Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy into Level 2 totaled $2,610,900 for the year ended December 31, 2021. The estimated fair value of the Public Warrants transferred from a Level 3 measurement to a Level 1 measurement when the Public Warrants were separately listed and traded. The transfers out of Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy into Level 1 totaled $3,726,000 for the year ended December 31, 2021. |

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | |
Basis of Presentation | Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X of the SEC. Certain information or footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC for interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of a normal recurring nature, which are necessary for a fair statement of the financial position operating results and cash flows for the periods presented. The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2021, as filed with the SEC on March 31, 2022. The interim results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2022 or for any future periods. |
Emerging Growth Company | 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 auditor 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 which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used. |
Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates The preparation of the condensed financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the Company’s 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 of 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 confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. |
Concentration of Credit Risk | Concentrations of Credit Risk Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to credit risk consist principally of cash and marketable securities held in the Trust Account. Cash is maintained in accounts with financial institutions, which, at times may exceed the federal depository insurance coverage of $250,000. The Company has not experienced losses on its cash accounts and management believes, based upon the quality of the financial institutions, that the credit risk with regard to these deposits is not significant. The Company’s marketable securities held in the Trust Account consists entirely of U.S. government securities with an original maturity of 180 days or less. |
Cash and Cash Equivalents | Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers all short-term investments with an original maturity of 180 days or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. The Company did not have any cash equivalents as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. |
Marketable Securities Held in Trust Account | Marketable Securities Held in Trust Account The Company’s portfolio of marketable securities held in the Trust Account are comprised solely of U.S. government securities, within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act, with a maturity of 180 days or less, classified as trading securities. Trading securities are presented on the unaudited condensed balance sheets at fair value at the end of each reporting period. Gains and losses resulting from the change in fair value of these securities and interest earnings is included in interest earnings on marketable securities held in Trust Account, in the accompanying unaudited condensed statements of operations. The fair value for trading securities is determined using quoted market prices in active markets. |
Warrant Liability | Warrant Liability The Company accounts for warrants for the Company’s ordinary shares as liabilities at fair value on the unaudited condensed balance sheets because the warrants do not meet the criteria for classification within equity. The warrants are subject to remeasurement at each balance sheet date and any change in fair value is recognized in the unaudited condensed statements of operations. The Company will continue to adjust the liability for changes in fair value until the earlier of the exercise or expiration of the warrants. |
Fair Value Measurements | Fair Value Measurements Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820, Fair Value Measurement The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). These tiers include: ● Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets; ● Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable such as quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and ● Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions, such as valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the recorded values of cash, prepaid expenses, and accrued expenses approximate the fair values due to the short-term nature of the instruments. The Company’s marketable securities held in the Trust Account are comprised of U.S. government securities with an original maturity of 180 days or less. The fair value for trading securities is determined using quoted market prices in active markets. |
Offering Costs Associated with the Initial Public Offering | Offering Costs Associated with the Initial Public Offering Offering costs incurred in connection with preparation of the Initial Public Offering, of approximately $8.4 million, consisted principally of underwriter discounts of $7.6 million (including $4.8 million of which payment is deferred) and approximately $769,000 of professional, printing, filing, regulatory and other costs. These expenses, together with the underwriting discounts and commissions, were allocated to the Class A ordinary shares and the warrants. Amounts allocated to the Class A ordinary shares of $7,995,004 were recognized as a reduction to the Class A ordinary shares carrying value and the amounts allocated to the public warrants of $364,321 were expensed immediately. |
Ordinary Shares Subject to Possible Redemption | Ordinary Shares Subject to Possible Redemption The Company accounts for its Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity. The Company’s Class A ordinary shares feature certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to the occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, 13,800,000 ordinary shares subject to possible redemption are presented as temporary equity outside of the shareholders’ equity section of the Company’s unaudited condensed balance sheets. The Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption are subject to the subsequent measurement guidance in ASC 480-10-S99. Under such guidance, the Company must subsequently measure the shares to their redemption amount because, as a result of the allocation of net proceeds to the Public Warrants, the initial carrying amount of the ordinary shares is less than $10.00 per share. The Company recognizes changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and adjusts the carrying value of redeemable ordinary shares to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Immediately upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company recognized the subsequent measurement of the initial book value to redemption amount. Subsequent measurement to the carrying value of redeemable Class A ordinary shares is due to interest income and unrealized gains or losses on the marketable securities held in the Trust Account. Such changes are reflected in additional paid-in capital, or in the absence of additional paid-in capital, in accumulated deficit. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company recorded an accretion of $825,106 and $13,393,944, of which $0 and $991,655 was recorded in additional paid-in capital and $825,106 and $12,402,289 was recorded in accumulated deficit, respectively. |
Net Income (Loss) Per Ordinary Share | Net Income (Loss) Per Ordinary Share The unaudited condensed statements of operations include a presentation of income (loss) per Class A redeemable public share and income (loss) per non-redeemable share following the two-class method of income per share. In order to determine the net income (loss) attributable to both the Class A redeemable shares and non-redeemable shares, the Company first considered the total income (loss) allocable to both sets of shares. This is calculated using the total net income (loss) less any dividends paid. For purposes of calculating net income (loss) per share, the accretion to redemption value of the Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption was considered to be dividends paid to the public shareholders. Subsequent to calculating the total income (loss) allocable to both sets of shares, the company split the amount to be allocated using a ratio of 80% for the Class A public shares and 20% for the non-redeemable shares for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, reflective of the respective participation rights. The earnings per share presented in the unaudited condensed statements of operations is based on the following: For the three For the three months ended months ended September 30, 2022 September 30, 2021 Net income $ 789,819 $ 1,731,205 Less: Accretion of temporary equity to redemption value (733,323) (3,404) Net income including accretion of temporary equity to redemption value $ 56,496 $ 1,727,801 For the three months ended September 30, 2022 2021 Class A Class B Class A Class B Basic and diluted net income per share: Numerator: Allocation of net income including accretion of temporary equity $ 45,197 $ 11,299 $ 1,382,241 $ 345,560 Accretion of temporary equity to redemption value 733,323 — 3,404 — Allocation of net income $ 778,520 $ 11,299 $ 1,385,645 $ 345,560 Denominator: Weighted-average shares outstanding 13,800,000 3,450,000 13,800,000 3,450,000 Basic and diluted net income per share $ 0.06 $ 0.00 $ 0.10 $ 0.10 For the For the nine months ended nine months ended September 30, 2022 September 30, 2021 Net income $ 5,836,561 $ 1,213,240 Accretion of temporary equity to redemption value (825,106) (13,389,123) Net income (loss) including accretion of temporary equity to redemption value $ 5,011,455 $ (12,175,883) For the nine months ended September 30, 2022 2021 Class A Class B Class A Class B Basic and diluted net income (loss) per share: Numerator: Allocation of net income (loss) including accretion of temporary equity $ 4,009,164 $ 1,002,291 $ (9,740,706) $ (2,435,177) Accretion of temporary equity to redemption value 825,106 — 13,389,123 — Allocation of net income (loss) $ 4,834,270 $ 1,002,291 $ 3,648,417 $ (2,435,177) Denominator: Weighted-average shares outstanding 13,800,000 3,450,000 10,716,484 3,349,451 Basic and diluted net income (loss) per share $ 0.35 $ 0.29 $ 0.34 $ (0.73) In connection with the underwriters’ full exercise of the over-allotment option on March 2, 2021, 450,000 Founder Shares were no longer subject to forfeiture. These shares were excluded from the calculation of weighted average shares outstanding until they were no longer subject to forfeiture. As of September 30, 2022 and 2021, there are no other dilutive securities and other contracts that could, potentially, be exercised or converted into ordinary shares and then share in our earnings. As a result, diluted loss per share is the same as basic loss per share for the periods presented. The Founder Shares were not included to calculate earnings per share as including the Founder Shares would be anti-dilutive. |
Income Taxes | Income Taxes ASC 740, Income Taxes There is currently no taxation imposed on income by the government of the Cayman Islands. In accordance with Cayman income tax regulations, income taxes are not levied on the Company. Consequently, income taxes are not reflected in the Company’s unaudited condensed financial statements. |
Risk and Uncertainties | Risks and Uncertainties Management continues to evaluate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the industry and has concluded that while it is reasonably possible that the virus could have a negative effect on the Company’s financial position, results of its operations, liquidity and/or search for a target company, the specific impact is not readily determinable as of the date of these unaudited condensed financial statements. The unaudited condensed financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. The credit and financial markets have experienced extreme volatility and disruptions due to the current conflict between Ukraine and Russia. The conflict is expected to have further global economic consequences, including but not limited to the possibility of severely diminished liquidity and credit availability, declines in consumer confidence, declines in economic growth, increases in inflation rates and uncertainty about economic and political stability. In addition, the United States and other countries have imposed sanctions on Russia which increases the risk that Russia, as a retaliatory action, may launch cyberattacks against the United States, its government, infrastructure and businesses. Any of the foregoing consequences, including those we cannot yet predict, may cause our business, financial condition, results of operations and the price of our ordinary shares to be adversely affected. |
