Description of Organization and Business Operations and Liquidity | Description of Organization and Business Operations and Liquidity Sagaliam Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) is a blank check company incorporated in the state of Delaware on March 31, 2021. The Company was formed for the purpose of entering into a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar Business Combination with one or more businesses (a “Business Combination”). The Company has selected December 31 as its fiscal year end. The Company is not limited to a particular industry or geographic region for purposes of consummating a Business Combination. The Company is an early stage and emerging growth company and, as such, the Company is subject to all of the risks associated with early stage and emerging growth companies. As of December 31, 2022, the Company had not yet commenced any operations. All activity through December 31, 2022 relates to the Company’s formation, initial public offering (“Initial Public Offering”) and search for a business combination target. The Company will not generate any operating revenues until its initial business combination. The registration statement for the Company’s Initial Public Offering was declared effective on December 20, 2021. On December 23, 2021, the Company consummated the Initial Public Offering of 11,500,000 units (the “Units” and, with respect to the Class A common stock included in the Units sold, the “Public Shares”), at $ 10.00 per Unit, generating total gross proceeds of $ 115,000,000 , which is described in Note 3. Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the sale of 400,000 10.00 4,000,000 Transaction costs amounted to $ 7,525,729 3,025,000 1,150,000 1,634,620 566,109 As of December 22, 2022 the Underwriter agreement was amended whereby the Underwriter has agreed to reduce the amount of the Deferred Underwriting Commission payable to the Underwriter from $ 4,025,000 3,025,000 Following the closing of the Initial Public Offering on December 23, 2021, an amount of $ 10.10 per unit or an aggregate of $ 116,150,000 has been placed in a trust account , (the “Trust Account”) and invested in U.S. government securities, within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of 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 the conditions of Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act, as determined by the Company. Except with respect to interest earned on the funds held in the trust account that may be released to the Company to pay its franchise and income tax obligations (less up to $ 150,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), the proceeds from this offering and the sale of the Private Placement Units will not be released from the trust account until the earliest of (a) the completion of the Company’s initial business combination, (b) the redemption of any public shares properly submitted in connection with a stockholder vote to amend the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation, and (c) the redemption of the Company’s public shares if the Company is unable to complete the initial business combination within 12 months (or up to 18 months, as applicable) from the closing of this offering, subject to applicable law. However, the Company had a charter Amendment to extend this date. The proceeds deposited in the trust account could become subject to the claims of the Company’s creditors, if any, which could have priority over the claims of the Company’s public stockholders. 10.10 SAGALIAM ACQUISITION CORP. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 2022 Note 1 – Description of Organization and Business Operations and Liquidity (cont.) The shares of Class A common stock subject to redemption are recorded at a redemption value and classified as temporary equity as of the Public Offering, in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” In such case, the Company will proceed with a Business Combination if the Company has net tangible assets of at least $ 5,000,001 On December 22, 2022, the Company’s shareholders voted in favor of amending the Company’s charter to allow it more time to complete our initial business combination up until the extended deadline date. Charter Amendment & Extension Agreement As reported by Sagaliam’s Form 8-K filed with the SEC on December 23, 2022, on December 22, 2022, Sagaliam’s shareholders voted in favor of amending Sagaliam’s charter to allow it more time to complete our initial business combination up until October 23, 2023 (the “Extended Deadline Date”). The charter amendment provides the Company with the option to extend the date by which it must complete its initial business combination from December 23, 2022 by up to ten successive one-month periods up to October 23, 2023 by the Sponsor depositing additional funds into the Trust Account at each extension election. As reported by the Company’s Form 8-K filed with the SEC on January 23, 2023, the Company extended the date by which it has to complete its business combination from January 23, 2023 to February 23, 2023. As reported by the Company’s Form 8-K filed with the SEC on February 24, 2023, the Company extended the date by which it has to complete its business combination from February 23, 2023 to March 23, 2023. As reported by the Company’s Form 8-K filed with the SEC on April 3, 2023, the Company extended the date by which it has to complete its business combination from March 23, 2023 to April 23, 2023. As reported by Sagaliam’s Form 8-K filed with the SEC on April 24, 2023, Sagaliam extended the date by which it has to complete its business combination from April 23, 2023 to May 23, 2023. If the Company’s Business Combination is not consummated by the extended deadline date or if the Company fails to deposit additional funds into the Trust Account after each extension election, the Company 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 earned on the funds held in the trust account and not previously released to the Company to pay its franchise and income taxes (less up to $ 150,000 The Sponsor, officers and directors have agreed to (i) waive their redemption rights with respect to their founder shares, private placement shares and public shares in connection with the completion of the initial business combination, (ii) waive their redemption rights with respect to their founder shares, private placement shares and public shares in connection with a stockholder vote to approve an amendment to the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation, and (iii) waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the trust account with respect to their founder shares and private placement shares if the Company fails to complete the initial business combination within the Combination Period. The Company’s Sponsor has agreed that it will 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 entered into a written letter of intent, confidentiality or similar agreement or business combination agreement, reduce the amount of funds in the trust account to below the lesser of (i) $ 10.10 10.10 SAGALIAM ACQUISITION CORP. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 2022 Note 1 – Description of Organization and Business Operations and Liquidity (cont.) Charter Amendment & Extension Agreement In connection with the charter amendment, 10,543,663 10.21 107,595,680 9,843,439 On November 16, 2022 by way of an unanimous written consent of the Board of Directors the text of Section 9.1(b) of Article IX of the Charter was amended by deleting the entire text of Section 9.1(b) of Article IX of the Charter and replacing it with the following: “Immediately after the Offering, a certain amount of the net offering proceeds received by the Corporation in the Offering (including the proceeds of any exercise of the underwriters’ overallotment option) and certain other amounts specified in the Corporation’s registration statement on Form S-1, as initially filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “ SEC Registration Statement Trust Account Except for the withdrawal of interest to pay taxes (less up to $150,000 interest to pay dissolution expenses), none of the funds held in the Trust Account (including the interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account) will be released from the Trust Account until the earliest to occur of (i) the completion of the initial Business Combination, (ii) the redemption of 100% of the Offering Shares (as defined below) if the Corporation is unable to complete its initial Business Combination by December 23, 2022 (the “ Deadline Date Offering Shares Public Stockholders As of December 31, 2021 the Company had 12 months from the closing of the Public Offering, unless such period is extended. If the Company has executed a definitive agreement and filed a proxy statement for an initial business combination within 12 months from the closing of the Public Offering, the period of time the Company will have to consummate an initial business combination will be automatically extended by an additional four months to an aggregate of 19 months without additional cost. However, if the Company is not able to consummate an initial business combination within 12 months and the Company has not entered into a definitive agreement or filed a proxy statement for an initial business combination by such date, the Company may, by resolution of the board if requested by the sponsor, extend the time available to consummate an initial business combination for an additional three months up to two times (for a total of 18 months to complete a business combination) by paying into the trust account $ 1,150,000 0.10 150,000 Business Combination Agreement On November 16, 2022 the Board of Directors entered into a Business Combination Agreement (the “BCA”) with Allenby Montefiore Limited, a private company limited by shares organized and existing under the Laws of the Republic of Cyprus, AEC Merger Sub Corp., a Delaware corporation, Supraeon Investments Limited, a private company limited by shares organized and existing under the Laws of the Republic of Cyprus, and GLD Partners, LP, a Delaware limited partnership. The Board had determined that it was in the best interests of the stockholders to extend the date to October 23, 2023 to consummate an initial business combination to an extended date in order to allow our stockholders to evaluate an initial business combination and for us to be able to potentially consummate an initial business combination, and is submitting these proposals to our stockholders to vote upon. This deal was not consummated and on February 23, 2023 the Business Combination Agreement was terminated as detailed in the subsequent events note herein. SAGALIAM ACQUISITION CORP. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS dECEMBER 31, 2022 Note 1 – Description of Organization and Business Operations and Liquidity Stockholder Redemption The Company has provided its public stockholders with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares upon the completion of the initial business combination either (i) in connection with a stockholder meeting called to approve the initial business combination or (ii) by means of a tender offer. On December 14, 2022 10,543,663 106,490,996 The Sponsor, officers and directors have agreed to (i) waive their redemption rights with respect to their founder shares, private placement shares and public shares in connection with the completion of the initial business combination, (ii) waive their redemption rights with respect to their founder shares, private placement shares and public shares in connection with a stockholder vote to approve an amendment to the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation, and (iii) waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the trust account with respect to their founder shares and private placement shares if the Company fails to complete the initial business combination within the Combination Period. The Company’s Sponsor has agreed that it will 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 entered into a written letter of intent, confidentiality or similar agreement or business combination agreement, reduce the amount of funds in the trust account to below the lesser of (i) $10.10 per public share and (ii) 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 $10.10 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 (whether or not such waiver is enforceable) nor will it apply to any claims under the Company’s indemnity of the underwriters of this offering against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act. However, the Company has not asked its Sponsor to reserve for such indemnification obligations, nor has the Company independently verified whether its Sponsor has sufficient funds to satisfy its indemnity obligations and believe that the Company’s Sponsor’s only assets are securities of the Company. Therefore, the Company cannot assure that its Sponsor would be able to satisfy those obligations. Liquidity, Capital Resources, and Going Concern As of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had $ 3,116 and $ 762,040 3,854,273 Until the consummation of a Business Combination, the Company will be using the funds in operating accounts for identifying and evaluating prospective acquisition candidates, performing due diligence on prospective target businesses, paying for travel expenditures, selecting the target business to acquire, and structuring, negotiating and consummating the Business Combination. In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with Financial Accounting Standard Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-15, “Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern,” the Company has until October 23, 2023 (12 months from Public Offering plus extension periods as discussed above) to consummate the proposed Business Combination. It is uncertain that the Company will be able to consummate the proposed Business Combination by this time. If a Business Combination is not consummated by this date, there will be a mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution of the Company. Additionally, the Company may not have sufficient liquidity to fund the working capital needs of the Company through one year from the issuance of these financial statements. Management has determined that the liquidity condition and mandatory liquidation, should a Business Combination not occur, and potential 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 October 23, 2023. The Company intends to complete the proposed Business Combination before the mandatory liquidation date. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to consummate any Business Combination by October 23, 2023. In addition, the Company may need to raise additional capital through loans or additional investments from its Sponsor, stockholders, officers, directors or third parties. The Company’s officers, directors and Sponsor may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds, from time to time or at any time, in whatever amount they deem reasonable in their sole discretion, to meet the Company’s working capital needs. Accordingly, the Company may not be able to obtain additional financing. If the Company is unable to raise additional capital, the Company may be required to take additional measures to conserve liquidity, which could include, but not necessarily be limited to, curtailing operations, suspending the pursuit of a potential transaction, and reducing overhead expenses. The Company cannot provide any assurance that new financing will be available to it on commercially acceptable terms, if at all. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern through the liquidation date of October 23, 2023. SAGALIAM ACQUISITION CORP. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS dECEMBER 31, 2022 Note 1 – Description of Organization and Business Operations and Liquidity Risks and Uncertainties Management continues to evaluate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic 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, and/or search for a target company, the specific impact is not readily determinable as of the date of the financial statement. The financial statement does not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. In February 2022, the Russian Federation and Belarus commenced a military action with the country of Ukraine. As a result of this action, various nations, including the United States, have instituted economic sanctions against the Russian Federation and Belarus. Further, the impact of this action and related sanctions on the world economy are not determinable as of the date of these financial statements and the specific impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows is also not determinable as of the date of these financial statements. On August 16, 2022, President Biden signed into law the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022, which, among other things, imposes a 1% excise tax on the fair market value of stock repurchased by publicly traded U.S. corporations and certain U.S. subsidiaries of publicly traded non-U.S. corporations beginning in 2023, with certain exceptions and adjustments (the “Excise Tax”). For purposes of calculating the Excise Tax, repurchasing corporations are permitted to net the fair market value of certain new stock issuances against the fair market value of stock repurchases during the same taxable year. Because we are a Delaware corporation and our securities trade on the New York Stock Exchange, we will likely be considered a “covered corporation” within the meaning of the Inflation Reduction Act. While not free from doubt, absent any further guidance from Congress or the U.S. Department of the Treasury, there is significant risk that the Excise Tax will apply to any redemptions of our common stock after December 31, 2022, including redemptions in connection with an initial Business Combination and any amendment to our certificate of incorporation to extend the time to consummate an initial Business Combination, unless an exemption is available. In addition, the Excise Tax may make a transaction with us less appealing to potential business combination targets, and thus, potentially hinder our ability to enter into and consummate an initial Business Combination. Further, the application of the Excise Tax in the event of a liquidation after December 31, 2022 is uncertain, and could impact the per-share amount that would otherwise be received by our stockholders in connection with our liquidation.

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Significant Accounting Policies | Note 2 – Significant Accounting Policies 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 stockholder 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 an emerging growth 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 financial statements in conformity with U.S. 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. 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 from those estimates. Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers all short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. The Company did not have any cash equivalents as of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021. Marketable Securities Held in Trust Account At December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, all of the assets held in the Trust Account were held in U. S. Treasury securities. The Company’s investments held in the Trust Account are classified as trading securities. Trading securities are presented on the balance sheets at fair value at the end of each reporting period. Gains and losses resulting from the change in fair value of investments held in Trust Account are included in other income earned on marketable securities held in Trust Account in the accompanying statements of operations. The estimated fair value of investments held in Trust Account are determined using available market information. SAGALIAM ACQUISITION CORP. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENT DECEMBER 31, 2022 Note 2 – Significant Accounting Policies Marketable Securities Held in Trust Account These financial assets were accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. As of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had $ 9,843,440 116,157,019 in marketable securities held in the Trust Account. Class A Common Stock Subject to Possible Redemption The Company accounts for its common stock subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in ASC 480 (Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity). Common stock subject to mandatory redemption are classified as a liability instrument and are measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable common stock (including common stock that feature redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the Company’s control) are classified as temporary equity. At all other times, common stock are classified as stockholders’ equity. The Company’s common stock feature certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to the occurrence of uncertain future events. The Company recognizes changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and adjusts the carrying value of redeemable Class A common stock to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Increases or decreases in the carrying amount of redeemable Class A common stock are affected by charges against additional paid-in capital and accumulated deficit. As of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, 956,337 11,500,000 shares of Class A common stock subject to possible redemption are presented at redemption value as temporary equity, outside of the stockholders’ deficit section of the Company’s balance sheet. The Company recognizes changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and adjusts the carrying value of Class A common stock subject to possible redemption to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period (less a provision of $ 150,000 Immediately upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company recognized the accretion from initial book value to redemption amount value. As of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption reflected in the following table: Schedule of Class A Ordinary Shares Subject To Possible Redemption Gross proceeds $ 116,500,000 Less: Accretion of carrying cost (15,819,048 ) Plus: Accretion of carrying value to redemption value 15,476,067 Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption as of December 31, 2021 116,157,019 Plus: — Income earned on Trust assets 1,509,988 Extension fee paid into trust 57,388 Less: Trust withdrawal for taxes (285,275 ) Initial Pre-Extension Redemption (107,595,680 ) Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption as of December 31, 2022 $ 9,843,440 Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption $ 9,843,440 SAGALIAM ACQUISITION CORP. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENT DECEMBER 31, 2022 Note 2 – Significant Accounting Policies Offering Costs Associated with the Initial Public Offering The Company complies with the requirements of ASC 340-10-S99-1 and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 5A – Expenses of Offering. Offering costs consist principally of professional and registration fees incurred through the balance sheet date that are related to the Initial Public Offering. Offering costs directly attributable to the issuance of an equity contract to be classified in equity are recorded as a reduction in equity. Offering costs for equity contracts that are classified as assets and liabilities are expensed immediately. The Company incurred offering costs amounting to $ 7,525,729 1,150,000 3,025,000 1,150,000 1,634,620 566,109 Income Taxes We account for income taxes under ASC 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”). ASC 740 requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for both the expected impact of differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities and for the expected future tax benefit to be derived from tax loss and tax credit carry forwards. ASC 740 additionally requires a valuation allowance to be established when it is more likely than not that all or a portion of deferred tax assets will not be realized. ASC 740 also clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. ASC 740 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim period, disclosure and transition. Based on our evaluation, it has been concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in the our financial statement. Since we were incorporated on March 31, 2021, the evaluation was performed for the years 2021and 2022 tax years which will be the only periods subject to examination. We recognize accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. There were no unrecognized tax benefits and no amounts accrued for interest and penalties as of December 31, 2022. We are currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviation from its position. SAGALIAM ACQUISITION CORP. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENT DECEMBER 31, 2022 Note 2 – Significant Accounting Policies Net Loss Per Share The Company complies with accounting and disclosure requirements of FASB ASC Topic 260, “Earnings Per Share”. Income and losses are shared pro rata between Class A common stock subject to possible redemption and non-redeemable common stock. Non-redeemable common stock includes Founder, Private Placement, and Representative Shares as these shares do not have any redemption features. Diluted net loss per share is the same as basic net loss per share for the year ended December 31, 2022 and the period March 31, 2021 (inception) through December 31, 2021, respectively. The calculation of diluted loss per ordinary share does not consider the effect of the rights issued in connection with the (i) Initial Public Offering, and (ii) the private placement that convert into 1,487,500 ordinary shares since the conversion of the rights into ordinary shares is contingent upon the occurrence of future events. As of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company did not have any dilutive securities or other contracts that could potentially, be exercised or converted into ordinary shares and then shares in the earnings of the Company. The table represents a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator used to compute basic and diluted net loss per common stock: Summary of Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) per Common Share Year Ended December 31, 2022 For the period March 31, 2021 (Inception) through December 31, 2021 Class A common stock Non-redeemable common stock Class A common stock Non-redeemable common stock Basic and diluted net loss per common stock Numerator: Allocation of net loss $ (2,607,381 ) $ (802,896 ) $ (33,092 ) $ (280,695 ) Denominator: Basic and diluted weighted average shares outstanding 11,008,925 3,390,000 334,545 2,837,709 Basic and diluted net loss per common stock $ (0.24 ) $ (0.24 ) $ (0.10 ) $ (0.10 ) Concentration of Credit Risk Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of a cash account in a financial institution, which, at times, may exceed the Federal Depository Insurance Coverage of $ 250,000 Fair Value of Financial Instruments The fair value of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities approximates the carrying amounts represented in the accompanying balance sheets, primarily due to their short-term nature. SAGALIAM ACQUISITION CORP. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 2022 Note 2 – Significant Accounting Policies Recent Accounting Standards In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt — Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40) (“ASU 2020-06”) to simplify accounting for certain financial instruments. ASU 2020-06 eliminates the current models that require separation of beneficial conversion and cash conversion features from convertible instruments and simplifies the derivative scope exception guidance pertaining to equity classification of contracts in an entity’s own equity. The new standard also introduces additional disclosures for convertible debt and freestanding instruments that are indexed to and settled in an entity’s own equity. ASU 2020-06 amends the diluted earnings per share guidance, including the requirement to use the if-converted method for all convertible instruments. ASU 2020-06 is effective January 1, 2024 and should be applied on a full or modified retrospective basis, with early adoption permitted beginning on January 1, 2021. The Company is currently reviewing what impact, if any, adoption will have on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements. |

Promissory note – Related Party On August 23, 2022, in order to fund working capital deficiencies and finance transaction costs, Sagaliam Acquisition Corp. issued a convertible promissory note (the “Promissory Note”) to Sagaliam Sponsor LLC, the Company’s sponsor. Pursuant to the Promissory Note, the Sponsor agreed to loan the Company an aggregate principal amount up to $ 1,500,000 The principal of this Promissory Note may be drawn down from time to time prior to the earlier of: (i) October 23, 2023 or (ii) the date on which the Company consummates an initial business combination with a target business (a “Business Combination”), upon written request from the Company to the Sponsor. The Promissory Note was issued to fund working capital of the Company. The Promissory Note is non-interest bearing and all outstanding amounts under the Promissory Note will be due on the earlier of: (i) October 23, 2023 or (ii) the date on which the Company consummates a Business Combination (the “Maturity Date”). If a Business Combination is not announced prior to October 23, 2023, the unpaid principal balance of the Promissory Note, and all other sums payable with regard to the Promissory Note, shall automatically and immediately become due and payable, in all cases without any action on the part of the Sponsor. 10.00 The Payee has the right, but not the obligation, to convert any outstanding principal amount under this Note, in whole or in part, into units (the “Units”) of the Maker, as described in the Prospectus, by providing the Maker with written notice of its intention to convert any outstanding principal amount under this Note at least one business day prior to the closing of a Business Combination. The Units would be identical to the private placement units as described in the Prospectus. The number of Units to be received by the Payee in connection with such conversion shall be an amount determined by dividing (x) the sum of the outstanding principal amount payable to such Payee by (y) $10.00. The Company has considered ASC480, distinguishing debt from equity, and has concluded that the promissory note should be classified as debt.

In the case that additional shares of Class A common stock, or equity-linked securities, are issued or deemed issued in excess of the amounts offered in and related to the closing of the initial business combination, the ratio at which shares of Class B common stock shall convert into shares of Class A common stock will be adjusted (unless the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Class B common stock agree to waive such adjustment with respect to any such issuance or deemed issuance) so that the number of shares of Class A common stock issuable upon conversion of all shares of Class B common stock will equal, in the aggregate, on an as-converted basis, 20 (not including the Private Placement Shares and Representative’s Shares) plus all shares of Class A common stock and equity-linked securities issued or deemed issued in connection with the initial business combination (excluding any shares or equity-linked securities issued, or to be issued, to any seller in the initial business combination or any units issued to the Sponsor, its affiliates or certain of officers and directors upon conversion of working capital loans made to the Company). Holders of the Class A common stock and holders of the Class B common stock will vote together as a single class on all matters submitted to a vote of the Company’s stockholders, with each share of common stock entitling the holder to one vote, except as required by law or the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation.

No additional consideration will be required to be paid by a holder of Public Rights in order to receive its additional shares upon consummation of a Business Combination, as the consideration related thereto has been included in the unit purchase price paid for by investors in the Proposed Public Offering. If the Company enters into a definitive agreement for a Business Combination in which the Company will not be the surviving entity, the definitive agreement will provide for the holders of Public Rights to receive the same per share consideration the holders of shares of Class A common stock will receive in the transaction on an as-exchanged for Class A common stock basis, and each holder of a Public Right will be required to affirmatively exchange its Public Rights in order to receive the 1/8 share underlying each Public Right (without paying any additional consideration) upon consummation of a Business Combination. More specifically, the Public Rights holder original rights certificates to the Company within a fixed period of time after which period the rights will expire worthless. SAGALIAM ACQUISITION CORP. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 2022 Note 7 – Stockholders’ Equity Pursuant to the rights agreement, a rights holder may exchange rights only for a whole number of shares of Class A common stock. This means that the Company will not issue fractional shares in connection with an exchange of rights and rights may be exchanged only in multiples of 8 rights (subject to adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like). Fractional shares will either be rounded down to the nearest whole share or otherwise addressed in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law. 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 Rights will not receive any such funds with respect to their Public Rights, nor will they receive any distribution from the Company’s assets held outside of the Trust Account with respect to such Public Rights, and the Public Rights will expire worthless. Further, there are no contractual penalties for failure to deliver securities to holders of the Public Rights upon consummation of a Business Combination. Additionally, in no event will the Company be required to net cash settle the rights. Accordingly, the rights may expire worthless. Dividends The Company has not paid any cash dividends on the common stock to date and does not intend to pay cash dividends prior to the completion of the initial Business Combination. |

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 2022 Note 8 - Income Tax As of December 31, 2022, the Company has $ 1,739,623 In assessing the realization of the deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion of all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which temporary differences representing net future deductible amounts become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. After consideration of all of the information available, management believes that significant uncertainty exists with respect to future realization of the deferred tax assets and has therefore established a full valuation allowance.

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 stockholder 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 an emerging growth 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 financial statements in conformity with U.S. 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. 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 from those estimates. |
Cash and Cash Equivalents | Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers all short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. The Company did not have any cash equivalents as of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021. |
Marketable Securities Held in Trust Account | Marketable Securities Held in Trust Account At December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, all of the assets held in the Trust Account were held in U. S. Treasury securities. The Company’s investments held in the Trust Account are classified as trading securities. Trading securities are presented on the balance sheets at fair value at the end of each reporting period. Gains and losses resulting from the change in fair value of investments held in Trust Account are included in other income earned on marketable securities held in Trust Account in the accompanying statements of operations. The estimated fair value of investments held in Trust Account are determined using available market information. SAGALIAM ACQUISITION CORP. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENT DECEMBER 31, 2022 Note 2 – Significant Accounting Policies Marketable Securities Held in Trust Account These financial assets were accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. As of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had $ 9,843,440 116,157,019 in marketable securities held in the Trust Account. |
Class A Common Stock Subject to Possible Redemption | Class A Common Stock Subject to Possible Redemption The Company accounts for its common stock subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in ASC 480 (Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity). Common stock subject to mandatory redemption are classified as a liability instrument and are measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable common stock (including common stock that feature redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the Company’s control) are classified as temporary equity. At all other times, common stock are classified as stockholders’ equity. The Company’s common stock feature certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to the occurrence of uncertain future events. The Company recognizes changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and adjusts the carrying value of redeemable Class A common stock to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Increases or decreases in the carrying amount of redeemable Class A common stock are affected by charges against additional paid-in capital and accumulated deficit. As of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, 956,337 11,500,000 shares of Class A common stock subject to possible redemption are presented at redemption value as temporary equity, outside of the stockholders’ deficit section of the Company’s balance sheet. The Company recognizes changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and adjusts the carrying value of Class A common stock subject to possible redemption to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period (less a provision of $ 150,000 Immediately upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company recognized the accretion from initial book value to redemption amount value. As of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption reflected in the following table: Schedule of Class A Ordinary Shares Subject To Possible Redemption Gross proceeds $ 116,500,000 Less: Accretion of carrying cost (15,819,048 ) Plus: Accretion of carrying value to redemption value 15,476,067 Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption as of December 31, 2021 116,157,019 Plus: — Income earned on Trust assets 1,509,988 Extension fee paid into trust 57,388 Less: Trust withdrawal for taxes (285,275 ) Initial Pre-Extension Redemption (107,595,680 ) Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption as of December 31, 2022 $ 9,843,440 Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption $ 9,843,440 SAGALIAM ACQUISITION CORP.

Offering Costs Associated with the Initial Public Offering | Offering Costs Associated with the Initial Public Offering The Company complies with the requirements of ASC 340-10-S99-1 and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 5A – Expenses of Offering. Offering costs consist principally of professional and registration fees incurred through the balance sheet date that are related to the Initial Public Offering. Offering costs directly attributable to the issuance of an equity contract to be classified in equity are recorded as a reduction in equity. Offering costs for equity contracts that are classified as assets and liabilities are expensed immediately. The Company incurred offering costs amounting to $ 7,525,729 1,150,000 3,025,000 1,150,000 1,634,620 566,109 |
Income Taxes | Income Taxes We account for income taxes under ASC 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”). ASC 740 requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for both the expected impact of differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities and for the expected future tax benefit to be derived from tax loss and tax credit carry forwards. ASC 740 additionally requires a valuation allowance to be established when it is more likely than not that all or a portion of deferred tax assets will not be realized. ASC 740 also clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. ASC 740 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim period, disclosure and transition. Based on our evaluation, it has been concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in the our financial statement. Since we were incorporated on March 31, 2021, the evaluation was performed for the years 2021and 2022 tax years which will be the only periods subject to examination. We recognize accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. There were no unrecognized tax benefits and no amounts accrued for interest and penalties as of December 31, 2022. We are currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviation from its position. SAGALIAM ACQUISITION CORP. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENT DECEMBER 31, 2022 Note 2 – Significant Accounting Policies |
Net Loss Per Share | Net Loss Per Share The Company complies with accounting and disclosure requirements of FASB ASC Topic 260, “Earnings Per Share”. Income and losses are shared pro rata between Class A common stock subject to possible redemption and non-redeemable common stock. Non-redeemable common stock includes Founder, Private Placement, and Representative Shares as these shares do not have any redemption features. Diluted net loss per share is the same as basic net loss per share for the year ended December 31, 2022 and the period March 31, 2021 (inception) through December 31, 2021, respectively. The calculation of diluted loss per ordinary share does not consider the effect of the rights issued in connection with the (i) Initial Public Offering, and (ii) the private placement that convert into 1,487,500 ordinary shares since the conversion of the rights into ordinary shares is contingent upon the occurrence of future events. As of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company did not have any dilutive securities or other contracts that could potentially, be exercised or converted into ordinary shares and then shares in the earnings of the Company. The table represents a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator used to compute basic and diluted net loss per common stock: Summary of Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) per Common Share Year Ended December 31, 2022 For the period March 31, 2021 (Inception) through December 31, 2021 Class A common stock Non-redeemable common stock Class A common stock Non-redeemable common stock Basic and diluted net loss per common stock Numerator: Allocation of net loss $ (2,607,381 ) $ (802,896 ) $ (33,092 ) $ (280,695 ) Denominator: Basic and diluted weighted average shares outstanding 11,008,925 3,390,000 334,545 2,837,709 Basic and diluted net loss per common stock $ (0.24 ) $ (0.24 ) $ (0.10 ) $ (0.10 ) |
Concentration of Credit Risk | Concentration of Credit Risk Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of a cash account in a financial institution, which, at times, may exceed the Federal Depository Insurance Coverage of $ 250,000 |
Fair Value of Financial Instruments | Fair Value of Financial Instruments The fair value of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities approximates the carrying amounts represented in the accompanying balance sheets, primarily due to their short-term nature. SAGALIAM ACQUISITION CORP. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 2022 Note 2 – Significant Accounting Policies |
Recent Accounting Standards | Recent Accounting Standards In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt — Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40) (“ASU 2020-06”) to simplify accounting for certain financial instruments. ASU 2020-06 eliminates the current models that require separation of beneficial conversion and cash conversion features from convertible instruments and simplifies the derivative scope exception guidance pertaining to equity classification of contracts in an entity’s own equity. The new standard also introduces additional disclosures for convertible debt and freestanding instruments that are indexed to and settled in an entity’s own equity. ASU 2020-06 amends the diluted earnings per share guidance, including the requirement to use the if-converted method for all convertible instruments. ASU 2020-06 is effective January 1, 2024 and should be applied on a full or modified retrospective basis, with early adoption permitted beginning on January 1, 2021. The Company is currently reviewing what impact, if any, adoption will have on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements. |
