DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS | NOTE 1. DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS A SPAC III Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) is blank check company incorporated as a British Virgin Island (“BVI”) business company on September 3, 2021. The Company was incorporated for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar Business Combination with one or more businesses (the “Business Combination”). Although there is no restriction or limitation on what industry or geographic region the Company’s target operates in, it is the Company’s intention to pursue prospective targets that are in the Environmental, Sustainability and Governance (ESG) and material technology sector. As of September 30, 2024, the Company had not commenced any operations. All activities for the period from September 3, 2021 (inception) through September 30, 2024 relate to the Company’s formation and the Initial Public Offering (the “IPO”) described below, and subsequent to the IPO, identifying a target company for a Business Combination. The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of its initial Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company will generate non-operating income in the form of interest income on cash and cash equivalents from the proceeds derived from the IPO. The Company has selected December 31 as its fiscal year end. The Company’s sponsor is A SPAC III (Holdings) Corp., a British Virgin Islands company (the “Sponsor”). The registration statement for the Company’s IPO was declared effective on November 8, 2024. On November 12, 2024, the Company consummated its IPO of 5,500,000 units (“Units”). Each Unit consists of one Class A ordinary share, no Simultaneously with the consummation of the IPO and the sale of the Units, the Company consummated the private placement (“Private Placement”) of 280,000 units (the “Private Placement Units”) to the Sponsor, at a price of $10.00 per Private Placement Unit, generating total proceeds of $2,800,000, which is described in Note 4. The Company granted the underwriters a 45-day option to purchase up to an additional 825,000 Units at the IPO price to cover over-allotments, if any. Subsequently, on November 15, 2024, the underwriters notified the Company of their election to partially exercise the over-allotment option to purchase additional 500,000 Units of the Company. The closing of the issuance and sale of the additional Units occurred (the “Over-Allotment Option Units”) on November 19, 2024. The total aggregate issuance by the Company of 500,000 Over-Allotment Option Units at the price of $10.00 per unit generated total gross proceeds of $5,000,000. On November 19, 2024, simultaneously with the closing and sale of the Over-Allotment Option Units, the Company consummated the private sale of an additional 5,000 Private Placement Units to the Sponsor, generating gross proceeds of $50,000. Total transaction costs amounted to $1,600,217 consisting of $600,000 of cash underwriting commissions which was paid in cash at the closing date of the IPO and the sale of the Over-Allotment Option Units on November 12, 2024 and November 19, 2024, respectively, $675,000 fair value of the Representative Shares (as discussed below), and $325,217 of other offering costs. At the closing date of the IPO and Over-allotment Option, cash of $1,888,753 was held outside of the Trust Account (as defined below) and is available for the payment of accrued offering costs and for working capital purposes. In connection with the IPO and issuance and sales of the Over-Allotment Option Units, the Company issued to Maxim Group LLC, (“Maxim”), the representative of underwriters, an aggregate of 270,000 Class A ordinary shares for no consideration (the “Representative Shares”). The fair value of the Representative Shares accounted for as compensation under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 718, “Compensation – Stock Compensation” (“ASC 718”) is included in the offering costs. The estimated fair value of the Representative Shares as of the IPO date totaled $675,000. The Representative Shares are identical to the public shares except that Maxim has agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any such shares until the completion of our initial business combination. The Representative Shares are deemed compensation by FINRA and are therefore subject to a lock-up for a period of 180 days immediately following the date of the commencement of sales in the IPO pursuant to FINRA Rule 5110(e)(1). In addition, Maxim (and its designees) has agreed (and its permitted transferees will agree) (i) to waive its redemption rights with respect to such shares in connection with the completion of the Company’s initial Business Combination and (ii) to waive its rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account (as defined below) with respect to such shares if the Company fails to complete its initial Business Combination within 12 months of the closing of the IPO (or 18 months, if the Company extends the time to complete a Business Combination). A total of $60,000,000 ($10.00 per Unit) of the net proceeds from the sale of Units in the IPO (including the Over-Allotment Option Units) and the Private Placements on November 12, 2024 and November 19, 2024, were placed in a trust account (the “Trust Account”) with Continental Stock Transfer& Trust acting as trustee. The funds placed in the Trust Account will be invested only in U.S. government treasury bills with a maturity of 185 days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act which invest only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations. Except with respect to interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account that may be released to the Company to pay its taxes, if any, the proceeds from the IPO and the private placement will not be released from the Trust Account the earlier to occur of (i) the completion of the initial Business Combination, (ii) the redemption of any public shares properly tendered in connection with a shareholder vote to amend the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association to (A) modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to redeem 100% of the public shares if the Company does not complete the initial Business Combination within the Combination Period (defined below) or (B) with respect to any other provision relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-Business Combination activity and (iii) the redemption of all of the public shares if the Company is unable to complete the initial Business Combination within the Combination Period (defined below), subject to applicable law and as further described in the Prospectus. In no other circumstances will a public shareholder have any right or interest of any kind in the trust account. The proceeds deposited in the Trust Account could become subject to the claims of the creditors, if any, which could have priority over the claims of the public shareholders. The Company’s management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the IPO and the Private Placement Units, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be applied generally toward consummating a Business Combination. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to complete a business combination successfully. The initial Business Combination must be with one or more target businesses or assets having an aggregate fair market value of at least 80% of the value of the Trust Account (defined below) (less any taxes payable on interest earned and less any interest earned thereon that is released to the Company for taxes) at the time of signing a definitive agreement in connection with the initial Business Combination. However, the Company will only complete a Business Combination if the post-Business Combination company owns or acquires 50% or more of the outstanding voting securities of the target or otherwise acquires a controlling interest in the target sufficient for it not to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”). There is no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully effect a Business Combination. The Company will provide the public shareholders 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 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 proposed Business Combination or conduct a tender offer will be made by the Company, solely in its discretion, and will be based on a variety of factors such as the timing of the transaction and whether the terms of the transaction would require the Company to seek shareholder approval under the law or stock exchange listing requirement. The Company will provide the public shareholders with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their public shares upon the completion of the initial Business Combination at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account as of two business days prior to the consummation of the initial Business Combination, including interest (which interest shall be net of taxes payable) divided by the number of then outstanding public shares, subject to the limitations described herein. The amount in the Trust Account is initially anticipated to be $10.00 per public share (subject to increase of up to an additional $0.20 per unit in the event that the Sponsor elects to extend the period of time to consummate a Business Combination, as described in more detail in the IPO). The Company accounted for its Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in ASC Topic 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity” (ASC 480). Ordinary shares subject to mandatory redemption (if any) will be classified as a liability instrument and will be measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable ordinary shares (including ordinary shares that features 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) will be classified as temporary equity. At all other times, ordinary shares will be classified as shareholder’s equity. In accordance with ASC 480-10-S99, the Company classified the Class A ordinary shares subject to redemption outside of permanent equity as the redemption provisions are not solely within the control of the Company. As of November 19, 2024, given that the 6,000,000 Class A ordinary shares (inclusive of the partial exercise of the underwriter’s over-allotment option) sold as part of the units in the IPO were issued with other freestanding instruments (i.e., rights), the initial carrying value of Class A ordinary shares classified as temporary equity was the allocated proceeds determined in accordance with ASC 470-20. If it is probable that the equity instrument will become redeemable, the Company has the option to either (i) accrete changes in the redemption value over the period from the date of issuance (or from the date that it becomes probable that the instrument will become redeemable, if later) to the earliest redemption date of the instrument or (ii) recognize changes in the redemption value immediately as they occur and adjust the carrying amount of the instrument to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. The Company has elected to recognize the changes in redemption value as a charge against retained earnings or, in the absence of retained earnings, as a charge against additional paid-in-capital over an expected 12-month period leading up to a business combination. The Company will have only 12 months from the closing of the IPO (or up to 18 months from the closing of the IPO if the Company extend the period of time to consummate a Business Combination by the full amount of time) (the “Combination Period”) to complete the initial Business Combination. If the Company has not completed the initial 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 ten business days thereafter, redeem the public shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest (which interest shall be net of taxes payable, and less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses) divided by the number of then outstanding public shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public shareholders’ rights as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any), subject to applicable law, and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the Board of Directors, liquidate and dissolve, subject in each case to the Company’s obligations under British Virgin Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. The underwriters, the Sponsor, officers and directors have agreed to (i) to waive their redemption rights with respect to their Private Placement Shares (as defined in Note 4), Founder Shares (as defined in Note 5), Representative’s Shares (as defined in Note 6) and any public shares they may hold in connection with the completion of the initial Business Combination and (ii) to waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to their Private Placement Shares, Founder Shares and Representative’s Shares if the Company fails to complete the initial Business Combination within the Combination Period (although they will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to any public shares they hold if the Company fails to complete the initial Business Combination within the Combination Period). If the Company submits the initial Business Combination to the public shareholders for a vote, the underwriters, the Sponsor, officers and directors have agreed (and their permitted transferees will agree), pursuant to the terms of a letter agreement entered into with the Company, to vote any Private Placement Shares, Founder Shares and Representative’s Shares held by them and any public shares purchased during or after the IPO in favor of the initial Business Combination. The Company’s Sponsor has agreed that it will be liable to the Company if and to the extent any claims by a vendor 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 (i) $10.00 per public share or (ii) such lesser amount per public share held in the Trust Account as of the date of the liquidation of the Trust Account due to reductions in the value of the trust assets, in each case net of the interest which may be withdrawn to pay taxes, except as to any claims by a third party who executed a waiver of any and all rights to seek access to the Trust Account and except as to any claims under the Company’s indemnity of the underwriters of the IPO against certain liabilities, including liabilities under 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 has not independently verified whether the Sponsor has sufficient funds to satisfy their indemnity obligations and believes that the Sponsor’s only assets are securities of the Company. The Company has not asked the Sponsor to reserve for such obligations. Going Concern Consideration As of September 30, 2024, the Company had no cash and a working capital deficit of $269,603. As of September 30, 2024, the Company had borrowed $244,603 under the promissory note, which is due as demanded. The Company has incurred and expects to continue to incur significant professional costs to remain as a publicly traded company and to incur significant transaction costs in pursuit of the consummation of a Business Combination. The Company initially has until November 12, 2025 to consummate the initial Business Combination (assume no extensions). There is no assurance that the Company’s plans to consummate a Business Combination will be successful within the Combination Period. If the Company does not complete a Business Combination, the Company’s board of directors would proceed to commence a voluntary liquidation and thereby a formal dissolution of the Company. Notwithstanding management’s belief that the Company would have sufficient funds to execute its business strategy, there is a possibility that business combination might not happen within the 12-month period from the date of the auditors’ report. Management has determined that the 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. Therefore, management believes that it would be prudent to include in its disclosure language about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern until the earlier of the consummation of the Business Combination or the date the Company is required to liquidate. No adjustments have been made to the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities should the Company be required to liquidate after November 12, 2025 (assume no extensions). Risks and Uncertainties In February 2022, an armed conflict escalated between Russia and Ukraine. The sanctions announced by the United States and other countries against Russia and Belarus following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine to date include restrictions on selling or importing goods, services, or technology in or from affected regions and travel bans and asset freezes impacting connected individuals and political, military, business, and financial organizations in Russia and Belarus. The United States and other countries could impose wider sanctions and take other actions should the conflict further escalate. Separately, in October 2023, Israel and certain Iranian-backed Palestinian forces began an armed conflict in Israel, the Gaza Strip, and surrounding areas, which threatens to spread to other Middle Eastern countries including Lebanon and Iran. As a result of the ongoing Russia/Ukraine, Hamas/Israel conflicts and/or other future global conflicts, the Company’s ability to consummate a Business Combination, or the operations of a target business with which the Company ultimately consummates a Business Combination, may be materially and adversely affected. In addition, the Company’s ability to consummate a transaction may be dependent on the ability to raise equity and debt financing which may be impacted by these events, including as a result of increased market volatility, or decreased market liquidity in third-party financing being unavailable on terms acceptable to the Company or at all. The impact of this action and potential future sanctions on the world economy and the specific impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or ability to consummate a Business Combination are not yet determinable. The unaudited condensed financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. |
