Overview
We are a blank check company incorporated in the Cayman Islands on July 24, 2024 formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, amalgamation, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or other similar Business Combination with one or more businesses. We intend to effectuate our Business Combination using cash derived from the proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and the sale of the Private Placement Units, our shares, debt or a combination of cash, shares and debt.
We expect to continue to incur significant costs in the pursuit of our acquisition plans. We cannot assure you that our plans to complete a Business Combination will be successful.
Results of Operations
We have neither engaged in any operations nor generated any revenues to date. Our only activities from July 24, 2024 (inception) through September 30, 2024 were organizational activities, those necessary to prepare for the Initial Public Offering, described below, 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 held in the Trust Account. 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.
For the period from July 24, 2024 (inception) through September 30, 2024, we had net loss of $27,788, which consisted of formation and operating costs.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Subsequent to the quarterly period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, on December 23, 2024, we consummated the Initial Public Offering of 10,000,000 Units at $10.00 per Units, generating gross proceeds of $100,000,000. Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, we consummated the sale of an aggregate of 400,000 private placement units (the “Private Placement Units”) at a price of $10.00 per Private Placement Unit, in a private placement to the Sponsor and the representative of the underwriters of the initial Public Offering, generating gross proceeds of $4,000,000.
Following the Initial Public Offering and the close of the over-allotment option on January 3, 2025, a total of $115,575,000 was placed in the trust account (the “Trust Account”). We incurred $4,203,522 of offering costs, consisting of $2,156,250 of cash underwriting fee (net of $143,750 underwriters’ reimbursement) and $2,047,272 of other offering costs.
On December 31, 2024, the underwriters notified the Company of their exercise of the over-allotment option in full and purchased 1,500,000 additional units (the “Option Units”) at $10.00 per unit upon the closing of the over-allotment option, generating gross proceeds of $15,000,000. The over-allotment option closed on January 3, 2025. Simultaneously with the closing of the over-allotment option, the Company consummated the private placement of an aggregate of 37,500 private placement units (the “Option Private Placement Units”) to the Sponsor and EBC at a price of $10.00 per unit, generating gross proceeds of $375,000.
We intend to use substantially all of the funds held in the Trust Account, including any amounts representing interest earned on the Trust Account (less income taxes payable), to complete our Business Combination. To the extent that our share capital or debt is used, in whole or in part, as consideration to complete our Business Combination, the remaining proceeds held in the Trust Account will be used as working capital to finance the operations of the target business or businesses, make other acquisitions and pursue our growth strategies.
