The 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 amounts in the Trust Account to below $10.25 per share, 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 of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). 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, 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.
Results of Operations
We have neither engaged in any operations nor generated any revenues to date. Our only activities through June 30, 2022 were organizational activities, including those necessary to prepare for the IPO and identifying a target company for a Business Combination. We do not expect to generate any operating revenues until after the completion of our Business Combination. We generate non-operating income in the form of interest income on marketable securities. We incur expenses as a result of being a public company (for legal, financial reporting, accounting and auditing compliance), as well as for due diligence expenses in connection with completing a Business Combination. Additionally, we recognize non-cash gains and losses within other income (expense) related to change in the recurring fair value measurement of our warrant liabilities at each reporting period.
For the three months ended June 30, 2022, the Company reported a net loss of $91,449, which consists of $187,468 general and administrative expenses, offset by $96,019 investment income earned in Trust Account.
For the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company reported a net loss of $186,755, which consists of $298,514 general and administrative expenses, offset by $111,758 investment income earned in Trust Account.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
On March 1, 2022, we consummated our IPO of 7,000,000 Units, generating gross proceeds of $70,000,000. On March 3, 2022, 1,050,000 additional Units were issued pursuant to the underwriters’ full exercise of their over-allotment option, generating additional gross proceeds of $10,500,000, for total proceeds of $80,500,000.
Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, we completed the private sale of i) 1,000,000 $15 Private Warrants generating total proceeds of $1,000,000, ii) 3,950,000 $11.50 Private Warrants generating total proceeds of $3,950,000, and iii) 55,000 Private Units generating total proceeds of $55,000. From the proceeds of the IPO and private placement of $15 Private Warrants, $11.50 Private Warrants, and Private Units, the Company retained approximately $900,000 for working capital needs after transfer of proceeds to the Trust Account and payment of expenses related to the IPO and directors and officers insurance. As of June 30, 2022, the Company held a cash balance of $814,351 outside of the Trust Account.
For the six months ended June 30, 2022, cash used in operating activities was $445,654, consisting primarily of (i) net loss of $186,755, and (ii) change in operating assets and liabilities which include an increase in prepaid expenses by $327,095 and an increase in accounts payable by $68,196.
In order to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor, or certain of our officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan us funds as may be required (“Working Capital Loans”). As of June 30, 2022, there were no Working Capital Loans under this arrangement.
We do not believe we will need to raise additional funds in order to meet the expenditures required for operating our business. However, if our estimate of the costs of identifying a target business, undertaking in-depth due diligence and negotiating a Business Combination are less than the actual amount necessary to do so, we may have insufficient funds available to operate our business prior to our initial Business Combination.
