SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of presentation The accompanying financial statements are presented in U.S. Dollars and conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. 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 financial statement in conformity with GAAP requires 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 statement, 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. 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 September 30, 2022. Marketable securities held in Trust Account At September 30, 2022, substantially all of the assets held in the Trust Account were invested in a money market fund that invests exclusively in short term U.S. Treasury obligations. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company did not withdraw any interest income from the Trust Account to pay for its franchise and income taxes. Common stock subject to possible redemption The Company accounts for its common stock subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” Common stock subject to mandatory redemption is classified as a liability instrument and is measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable common stock (including common stock that features redemption rights that is either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the Company’s control) is classified as temporary equity. At all other times, common stock is classified as stockholders’ equity. The Company’s common stock features certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, at September 30, 2022, common stock subject to possible redemption is presented as temporary equity at redemption value, outside of the stockholders’ equity section of the Company’s balance sheet. The Company recognizes changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and adjusts the carrying value of redeemable common stock to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Increases or decreases in the carrying amount of redeemable common stock are affected by charges against additional paid in capital or accumulated deficit if additional paid in capital equals to zero. Deferred offering costs Deferred offering costs consist of underwriting, legal, accounting and other expenses incurred through the balance sheet date that are directly related to the IPO and that are charged to shareholders equity upon the completion of the IPO. Offering costs amounting to $1,240,837 (including $750,000 of underwriting fees) were charged to shareholders’ equity upon the completion of IPO. Furthermore, underwriters also received 40,250 Units (“Underwriter Units”), with such Units restricted from sale until the closing of the Business Combination and with no redemption rights from the Trust Account. Each Underwriter Unit consists of one share of common stock of the Company, par value $0.0001 per share and three-quarters of one redeemable warrant (“Underwriter Warrant”), each whole Underwriter Warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one share of common stock for $11.50 per share. Warrants The Company accounts for the 6,037,500 Public Warrants, 41,250 Private Unit Warrants, 3,950,000 $11.50 Private Warrant, 1,000,000 $15.00 Private Warrant and 30,188 Underwriter Warrants issued in connection with the IPO and the Private Placements in accordance with the guidance contained in ASC 815-40 “Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity” and ASC 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity”. The Company’s warrants meet the criteria required to be classified as equity. Income taxes The Company complies with the accounting and reporting requirements of ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes,” which requires an asset and liability approach to financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed for differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities that will result in future taxable or deductible amounts, based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. ASC Topic 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions 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. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits, if any, as income tax expense. There were no unrecognized tax benefits as of September 30, 2022 and no amounts accrued for interest and penalties. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviation from its position. The Company is subject to income tax examinations by major taxing authorities since inception. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, the provision for income taxes was immaterial. Reconciliation of Net Income (Loss) per Common Share The Company complies with accounting and disclosure requirements of ASC 260, Earnings Per Share. The Company has redeemable and nonredeemable shares of common stock. Income and losses are shared pro rata between the redeemable and nonredeemable shares of common stock. Net income (loss) per share of common stock is calculated by dividing the net income (loss) by the weighted average shares of common stock outstanding for the respective period. Net loss for the period from January 1, 2022 to IPO was allocated fully to the nonredeemable shares of common stock. Diluted net income (loss) per share attributable to stockholders adjusts the basic net income (loss) per share attributable to stockholders and the weighted-average shares of common stock outstanding for the potentially dilutive impact of outstanding warrants. However, because the warrants are anti-dilutive, diluted income (loss) per share of common stock is the same as basic income (loss) per share of common stock for the period presented. The following table reflects the calculation of basic and diluted net income (loss) per share of common stock (in dollars, except per share amounts): Net loss from January 1, 2022 to IPO date $ (3,727) Net income from IPO date to quarter end September 30, 2022 94,233 Total income from January 1, 2022 to quarter end September 30, 2022 $ 90,506 For the period from July 1, 2022 through September 30, 2022 Redeemable Non- Redeemable Shares Shares Total Total number of shares 8,050,000 2,107,750 10,157,750 Ownership percentage 79 % 21 % Total income allocated by class $ 219,729 $ 57,532 $ 277,261 Less: Accretion allocated based on ownership percentage (295,121) (77,272) (372,393) Plus: Accretion applicable to the redeemable class 372,393 372,393 Total income (loss) by class $ 297,002 $ (19,740) Weighted average shares 8,050,000 2,107,750 Earnings (loss) per share $ 0.04 $ (0.01) For the period from January 1, 2022 through September 30, 2022 Redeemable Non- Redeemable Shares Shares Total Total number of shares 8,050,000 2,107,750 10,157,750 Ownership percentage 79 % 21 % Total income allocated by class $ 74,679 $ 15,826 $ 90,506 Less: Accretion allocated based on ownership percentage (2,961,953) (775,535) (3,737,488) Plus: Accretion applicable to the redeemable class 3,737,488 3,737,488 Total income (loss) by class $ 850,215 $ (759,709) Weighted average shares 6,302,564 2,020,780 Earnings (loss) per share $ 0.13 $ (0.38) Fair value of financial instruments The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities which qualify as financial instruments under ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurement,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the accompanying balance sheet, primarily due to their short-term nature. The fair value of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities reflects management’s estimate of amounts that the Company would have received in connection with the sale of the assets or paid in connection with the transfer of the liabilities in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In connection with measuring the fair value of its assets and liabilities, the Company seeks to maximize the use of observable inputs (market data obtained from independent sources) and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs (internal assumptions about how market participants would price assets and liabilities). The following fair value hierarchy is used to classify assets and liabilities based on the observable inputs and unobservable inputs used in order to value the assets and liabilities. Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. An active market for an asset or liability is a market in which transactions for the asset or liability occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis. Level 2: Observable inputs other than Level 1 inputs. Examples of Level 2 inputs include quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities and quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active. Level 3: Unobservable inputs based on our assessment of the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. The fair value of the marketable securities held in trust account is determined using the level 1 input. Recently issued accounting standard Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements. |
