SIGNAL HILL ACQUISITION CORP.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 — ORGANIZATION, PLAN OF BUSINESS OPERATIONS, RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES, AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Signal Hill Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) was incorporated in Delaware on February 18, 2021. The Company was formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses (the “Business Combination”).

The Company is not limited to a particular industry or sector 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.

All activity for the period from February 18, 2021 (inception) through March 31, 2022 relates to the Company’s formation and the initial public offering (“Initial Public Offering”), which is described below. 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 from the proceeds derived from the Initial Public Offering. The Company has selected December 31 as its fiscal year end.

The registration statement for the Company’s Initial Public Offering was declared effective on February 10, 2022. On February 15, 2022, the Company consummated the Initial Public Offering of 10,000,000 units (the “Units” and, with respect to the Class A common stock included in the Units sold, the “public shares” or the “Class A Common Stock”), generating gross proceeds of $100,000,000, which is described in Note 3.

Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering and in a second closing on February 28, 2022, the Company consummated the sale of an aggregate of 6,000,000 warrants (each, a “Private Placement Warrant” and, collectively, the “Private Placement Warrants”) at a price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant in a private placement to Signal Hill Acquisition Sponsor, LLC (the “sponsor”) and certain initial stockholders, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $6,000,000, which is described in Note 4.

Transaction costs related to the Initial Public Offering amounted to $2,736,847, consisting of $2,000,000 of underwriting fees and $736,847 of other offering costs. In addition, cash of $1,012,777 was held outside of the Trust Account (as defined below) and is available for the payment of offering costs and for working capital purposes. As described in Note 6, $3,500,000 of business combination marketing fees become due and payable upon the consummation of the Business Combination. Transaction costs related to the private placement amounted to $7,483,393 as of February 15, 2022, which represented the estimated fair value of Class B common stock to be transferred to investors in the offering, which is described in Note 4.

Following the closing of the Initial Public Offering on February 15, 2022, an amount of $102,000,000 ($10.20 per Unit) from the net proceeds of the sale of the Units in the Initial Public Offering and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants was placed in a trust account (the “Trust Account”), to be invested in U.S. government securities, within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (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, until the earlier of: (i) the consummation of a Business Combination or (ii) the distribution of the funds in the Trust Account to the Company’s shareholders, as described below.

Table of Contents

The Company’s management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and the sale of Private Placement Warrants, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be applied generally toward consummating one or more Business Combinations. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to complete a Business Combination successfully. The Company must complete one or more initial Business Combinations with one or more operating businesses or assets with a fair market value equal to at least 80% of the net assets held in the Trust Account (as defined below) (excluding the taxes payable on the interest earned on the Trust Account). The Company will only complete a Business Combination if the post-transaction company owns or acquires 50% or more of the outstanding voting securities of the target or otherwise acquires a controlling interest in the target business sufficient for it not to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act.

The Company will provide the holders of the outstanding Public Shares (the “Public Stockholders”) with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares either (i) in connection with a stockholder meeting called to approve a Business Combination or (ii) by means of a tender offer in connection with a Business Combination. The decision as to whether the Company will seek stockholder approval of a Business Combination or conduct a tender offer will be made by the Company. The Public Stockholders will be entitled to redeem their Public Shares for a pro rata portion of the amount then in the Trust Account (initially anticipated to be $10.20 per Public Share, plus any pro rata interest then in the Trust Account, net of taxes payable). There will be no redemption rights upon the completion of a Business Combination with respect to the Company’s warrants.

The Company will not redeem public shares in an amount that would cause the Company’s net tangible assets to be less than $5,000,001 or any greater net tangible asset or cash requirement which may be contained in the agreement relating to the Business Combination. If the Company seeks stockholder approval of the Business Combination, the Company will proceed with a Business Combination if a majority of the outstanding shares voted are voted in favor of the Business Combination, or such other vote as required by law or stock exchange rule. If a stockholder vote is not required by applicable law or stock exchange listing requirements and the Company does not decide to hold a stockholder vote for business or other reasons, the Company will, pursuant to its Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Certificate of Incorporation”), conduct the redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and file tender offer documents with the SEC prior to completing a Business Combination. If, however, stockholder approval of the transaction is required by applicable law or stock exchange listing requirements, or the Company decides to obtain stockholder approval for business or other reasons, the Company will offer to redeem shares in conjunction with a proxy solicitation pursuant to the proxy rules and not pursuant to the tender offer rules. If the Company seeks stockholder approval in connection with a Business Combination, the sponsor has agreed to vote its founder shares and any public shares purchased during or after the Initial Public Offering in favor of approving a Business Combination. Additionally, each Public Stockholder may elect to redeem their public shares without voting, and if they do vote, irrespective of whether they vote for or against the proposed transaction.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company seeks stockholder approval of a Business Combination and it does not conduct redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules, the Certificate of Incorporation will provide that a Public Stockholder, together with any affiliate of such stockholder or any other person with whom such stockholder is acting in concert or as a “group”(as defined under Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), will be restricted from redeeming its shares with respect to more than an aggregate of 15% of the public shares, without the prior consent of the Company.

The sponsor has agreed (a) to waive its redemption rights with respect to the founder shares and public shares held by it in connection with the completion of a Business Combination and (b) not to propose an amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation (i) to modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to allow redemptions in connection with a Business Combination or to redeem 100% of its public shares if the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period (as defined below) or (ii) with respect to any other material provision relating to stockholders’ rights or pre-business combination activity, unless the Company provides the Public Stockholders with the opportunity to redeem their public shares in conjunction with any such amendment.

Table of Contents

The Company has 15 months from closing of the Initial Public Offering, which is extendable at our option to up to 21 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering, as described below, (the “Combination Period”) to complete a Business Combination. If the Company has not completed a 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 earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to pay taxes (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 Stockholders’ rights as stockholders (including the right to receive further liquidating distributions, if any), and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the Company’s remaining stockholders and the Company’s board of directors, dissolve and liquidate, subject in each case to the Company’s obligations under Delaware law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. There will be no redemption rights or liquidating distributions with respect to the Company’s warrants, which will expire worthless if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period.

If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within 15 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company may, by resolution of its board if requested by its sponsor, extend the period of time to consummate a Business Combination up to two times, each by an additional three months (for a total of up to 21 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering), subject to the sponsor depositing additional funds into the Trust Account as set out below. Public stockholders, in this situation, will not be offered the opportunity to vote on or redeem their shares in connection with such extensions. Pursuant to the terms of the Company’s second amended and restated certificate of incorporation and the trust agreement, in order for the time available for the Company to consummate the Business Combination to be extended, the sponsor or its affiliates or designees, upon five business days advance notice prior to the applicable deadline, must deposit into the trust account $1,000,000 ($0.10 per public share), on or prior to the date of the applicable deadline, for each of the available three-month extensions, providing a total possible Business Combination period of up to 21 months at a total payment value of $2,000,000 ($0.20 per share). Any such payments would be made in the form of non-interest bearing loans. If the Company completes a Business Combination, it will, at the option of the sponsor, repay such loaned amounts out of the proceeds of the Trust Account released to the Company or convert a portion or all of the total loan amount into warrants at a price of $1.00 per warrant, which warrants will be identical to the private placement warrants. If the Company does not complete a Business Combination, it will repay such loans only from funds held outside of the Trust Account. Furthermore, the letter agreement with the Company’s initial stockholders contains a provision pursuant to which the sponsor has agreed to waive its right to be repaid for such loans to the extent there is insufficient funds held outside of the Trust Account in the event that the Company does not complete a Business Combination. The sponsor and its affiliates or designees are not obligated to fund the Trust Account to extend the time for the Company to complete a Business Combination. In the event the Company receives notice from the sponsor five days prior to the applicable deadline of their intent to effect an extension, the Company intends to issue a press release announcing such intention at least three days prior to the applicable deadline. In addition, the Company intends to issue a press release the day after the applicable deadline announcing whether or not the funds had been timely deposited.

The sponsor, certain initial stockholders of the Company and its officers and directors entered into a letter agreement with the Company, pursuant to which they have waived their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to any founder shares held by them if the Company fails to complete the initial Business Combination within the Combination Period. However, if the sponsor, initial stockholders, officers or directors acquire public shares in or after the Initial Public Offering, they will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to such public shares if the Company fails to complete the initial Business Combination within the Combination Period.

In order to protect the amounts held in the Trust Account, the sponsor has agreed to 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 discussed entering into a transaction agreement, reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account to below (i) $10.20 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, if less than $10.20 per Public Share due to reductions in the value of the trust assets, in each case net of the amount of 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 underwriter of the Proposed Public Offering against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (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 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 (except for the Company’s independent registered accounting

firm), prospective target businesses and 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.

Liquidity

At March 31, 2022, the Company had $1,168,665 in cash and working capital of $465,079. On April 2, 2022, the overallotment option expired unexercised, such that working capital increased by approximately $600,000 as of such date.

Based on the foregoing, including the funds held outside of the trust account related to the closings of the Initial Public Offering and private placement offering, management believes that the Company will have sufficient working capital and borrowing capacity to meet its operating needs through the earlier of the consummation of a Business Combination for one year from the date these financial statements are issued. Over this time period, the Company will be using the funds held outside of the Trust Account for paying existing accounts payable and accrued liabilities, identifying and evaluating prospective initial Business Combination candidates, performing due diligence on prospective target businesses, paying for travel expenditures, selecting the target business to merge with or acquire, and structuring, negotiating and consummating the Business Combination. The Company does not believe it will need to raise additional funds in order to meet the expenditures required for operating the business. However, if the Company’s estimate of the costs of identifying a target business, undertaking in-depth due diligence and negotiating an initial Business Combination are less than the actual amount necessary to do so, the Company may have insufficient funds available to operate the business prior to the initial Business Combination. Moreover, the Company may need to obtain additional financing either to complete the initial Business Combination or to redeem a significant number of our public shares upon completion of the initial Business Combination, in which case the Company may issue additional securities or incur debt in connection with such initial Business Combination.

In order to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the sponsor has committed to loan the Company up to an aggregate of $100,000, to be provided in the event that funds held outside of the Trust Account are insufficient to fund the Company’s expenses relating to investigating and selecting a target business and other working capital requirements prior to a Business Combination.

There is no assurance that the Company’s plans to consummate a Business Combination will be successful. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Risks and Uncertainties

The full impact of the COVID-19 outbreak continues to evolve. The impact of the COVID-19 outbreak on the Company’s results of operations, financial position and cash flows will depend on future developments, including the duration and spread of the outbreak and related advisories and restrictions. These developments and the impact of the COVID-19 outbreak on the financial markets and the overall economy are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted. If the financial markets and/or the overall economy are impacted for an extended period, the Company’s results of operations, financial position and cash flows may be materially adversely affected. Additionally, the Company’s ability to complete an Initial Business Combination may be materially adversely affected due to significant governmental measures being implemented to contain the COVID-19 outbreak or treat its impact, including travel restrictions, the shutdown of businesses and quarantines, among others, which may limit the Company’s ability to have meetings with potential investors or affect the ability of a potential target company’s personnel, vendors and service providers to negotiate and consummate an Initial Business Combination in a timely manner. The Company’s ability to consummate an Initial Business Combination may also be dependent on the ability to raise additional equity and debt financing, which may be impacted by the COVID-19 outbreak and the resulting market downturn.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, such statements include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring items) which are considered necessary for a fair presentation of the unaudited condensed financial statements of the Company as of March 31, 2022 and for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year ending December 31, 2022 or any other period. These unaudited condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the

Table of Contents

audited financial statements and related disclosures as of December 31, 2021 and for the year then ended which are included the Annual Report filed on Form 10-K on March 31, 2022.

NOTE 2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

As of March 31, 2022, there have been no material changes to the significant accounting policies included in the audited financial statements as of December 31, 2021 and for the year then ended, which were included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10 K filed with the SEC on March 31, 2022, except as disclosed in this note.

Shares Subject to Possible Redemption

The Company accounts for shares subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity. Shares subject to mandatory redemption are classified as liability instruments and are measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable shares (including shares 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 within temporary equity. Changes in redemption value are reflected in additional paid in capital or, in the absence of additional capital, in accumulated deficit. At all other times, shares are classified within shareholders’ equity. Accordingly, at March 31, 2022, Class A Common Stock subject to possible redemption are presented at redemption value as temporary equity, outside of stockholders’ deficiency on the Company’s balance sheet.

Under ASC 480-10-S99, the Company recognizes changes in the redemption value immediately as they occur and adjusts the carrying value of the security to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. This method views the end of the reporting period as if it were also the redemption date for the security. At February 15, 2022, in connection with the Initial Public Offering, the Company recorded an immediate remeasurement adjustment of its Class A Common Stock of $10,186,778, such that the shares were recorded at redemption value of $10.20 per share as of such date.

Offering Costs

The Company’s accounting for offering costs complies with the requirements of the ASC 340-10-S99-1 and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) Topic 5A–“Expenses of Offering.” Offering costs consist of underwriting, legal, accounting and other cash expenses incurred through the closing of the Initial Public Offering that are directly related to the Initial Public Offering. In addition, the fair value of shares of Class B common stock that were issued to investors in the private placement were determined to be offering costs, which is described in Note 4. Offering costs are allocated to the separable financial instruments on a relative fair value basis compared to total proceeds received. Offering costs related to the Initial Public Offering amounted to $2,736,847 which were allocated to the Class A Common Stock (temporary equity), overallotment liability (recognized as expense immediately) and Public Warrants (stockholders’ equity) and recognized upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering. Offering costs related to the private placement amounted to $7,483,893 which represented the estimated fair value of Class B common stock to be transferred to investors in the offering and, accordingly, the offering costs were recognized by debiting and crediting additional paid-in capital upon the completion of the offering.

Net Loss per Common Share

Net loss per common stock is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common stock for the period, excluding the effect of an aggregate of 375,000 shares of Class B common stock that are subject to forfeiture if the option to purchase additional units is not exercised by the underwriter (see Note 5). The Company has two classes of stock, which are referred to as Class A common stock and Class B common stock. Earnings and losses are shared pro rata between the two classes of stock. The Company applies the two-class method in calculating earnings per share. Remeasurement adjustments associated with the redeemable Class A common stock is excluded from earnings per share as the redemption value approximates fair value.

The calculation of diluted loss per share does not consider the effect of the warrants issued during the three months ended March 31, 2022 in connection with the IPO and the private placement because the warrants are contingently exercisable and the contingencies have not yet been met. The warrants are exercisable to purchase 11,000,000 Class A common stock in the aggregate. As of March 31, 2022, the Company did not have any dilutive securities or other contracts that could, potentially, be exercised or converted into common stock

Table of Contents

and then share in the earnings of the Company. As a result, diluted net loss per common stock is the same as basic net loss per common stock for the periods presented.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurement,” defines fair value as the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability, in an orderly transaction between market participants.

Fair value measurements are classified on a three-tier hierarchy as follows:

●

Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical instruments in active markets;

●

Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable such as quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and

●

Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions, such as valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.

In many cases, a valuation technique used to measure fair value includes inputs from multiple levels of the fair value hierarchy described above. The lowest level of significant input determines the placement of the entire fair value measurement in the hierarchy.

The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities which qualify as financial instruments approximates the carrying amounts represented in the balance sheet, primarily due to their short-term nature.

The Company used a Black-Scholes option pricing model to estimate the fair value of the overallotment liability of $603,284 as of February 15, 2022 and March 31, 2022. The Company allocated the proceeds received from the sale of Units (which is inclusive of one share of Class A common stock and one-half of one Public Warrant), first to the Public Warrants and overallotment liability based on their fair values as determined at initial measurement, with the remaining proceeds allocated to the Class A common stock subject to possible redemption (temporary equity) based on their fair values at the initial measurement date. The overallotment liability was classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy at the measurement dates due to the use of unobservable inputs. Inherent in pricing models are assumptions related to expected share-price volatility, expected life and risk-free interest rate. The Company estimated the volatility of its common stock based on historical volatility that matches the expected remaining life of the overallotment option. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury zero-coupon yield curve on the issuance date for a maturity similar to the expected remaining life of the overallotment option. The expected life of the overallotment option is assumed to be equivalent to its remaining contractual term.

Warrants and Overallotment Liability

whether the instrument is freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, meets the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and whether the instrument meets all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the instrument is indexed to the Company’s own common stock, among other conditions for equity classification. Pursuant to such evaluation, both Public and Private Warrants are classified in stockholders’ equity and the overallotment option is classified as a current liability and, accordingly, was measured at fair value upon issuance and will be remeasured at each balance sheet date thereafter, with changes in the estimated fair value recognized through earnings.

Recent Accounting Standards

In August 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“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 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 for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021 and should be applied on a full or modified retrospective basis. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company adopted ASU 2020-06 effective January 1, 2022. The adoption of ASU 2020-06 did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed financial statements.

Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

NOTE 3 — INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING

Pursuant to the Initial Public Offering, on February 15, 2022, the Company sold 10,000,000 Units at a price of $10.00 per Unit. Each Unit consists of one share of Class A common stock and one-half of one redeemable warrant (“Public Warrant”). Each whole Public Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share of Class A common stock at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment (see Note 7). The Company’s underwriter has a 45-day option to purchase 1,500,000 additional Units at $9.80 per Unit, which was recorded as a liability as of February 15, 2022 and March 31, 2022 with an estimated fair value of $603,284. See Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - Fair Value of Financial Instruments for details. On April 2, 2022, the overallotment option expired unexercised.

NOTE 4 — PRIVATE PLACEMENT

Pursuant to the amended and restated private placement agreement dated as of February 14, 2022 (the “Private Placement Agreement”), the sponsor and certain of the Company’s initial stockholders (the “Initial Stockholders”) have agreed to purchase an aggregate of 6,000,000 Private Placement Warrants at a price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant for an aggregate purchase price of $6,000,000 simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering as well as on the dates of one or more additional closings (each, an “Additional Closing Date”), with the transactions involving the Initial Stockholders detailed at the end of this Note 4. Each Private Placement Warrant is exercisable to purchase one share of Class A common stock at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment (see Note 7).

Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO and in a second closing on February 28, 2022, the Company completed the private sale of an aggregate of 6,000,000 Private Placement Warrants to the sponsor and certain initial stockholders, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $6,000,000.

In connection with the private placement offering, the sponsor raised outside capital and, accordingly, has entered into agreements with investors to purchase membership interests in the sponsor. These agreements to acquire membership interests provide the investors with an ownership interest in the Private Placement Warrants and Class B common stock that are currently held in the sponsor’s name. In connection with such purchases through the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the Sponsor has agreed to transfer an aggregate of 1,358,704 shares of the Company’s Class B common stock to the investors discussed above. The Company determined that the fair value of the Class B common stock to be acquired by the purchasers should be recorded as an offering cost in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 5A. The Company determined that the estimated fair value of the aggregate of 1,050,371 shares of Class B

Table of Contents

common stock to be transferred to the purchasers was approximately $7.13 per share or $7,483,893 in the aggregate and was based on the Probability-Weighed Expected Return Method. Accordingly, the offering costs were recognized by debiting and crediting additional paid-in capital upon the completion of the private placement offering.

Pursuant to the Private Placement Agreement, the Company transferred $4,000,000 to the Trust Account on February 15, 2022. If the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the proceeds from the sale of the Private Placement Warrants will be used to fund the redemption of the public shares (subject to the requirements of applicable law) and the Private Placement Warrants will expire worthless.

NOTE 5 — RELATED PARTIES

Founder Shares

On March 31, 2021, the sponsor paid $25,000, or approximately $0.007 per share, to purchase an aggregate of 3,750,000 shares of Class B common stock, par value $0.0001 per share. In December 2021, the sponsor surrendered an aggregate of 875,000 founder shares for no consideration, thereby reducing the aggregate number of founder shares outstanding to 2,875,000, resulting in an effective purchase price paid for the founder shares of approximately $0.009 per share (see Note 8). Of the founder shares outstanding, 375,000 founder shares are subject to forfeiture depending on the extent to which the underwriters’ option to purchase additional units is exercised. On April 2, 2022, the overallotment option expired unexercised, such that 375,000 founder shares were forfeited by the sponsor.

The number of founder shares issued was determined based on the expectation that the founder shares would represent 20% of the outstanding shares after this offering. See Note 4 – Private Placement. On February 15, 2022, the sponsor entered into an agreement to forfeit an aggregate of 625,000 shares of Class B common stock for no consideration in connection with the issuance of the same number of shares to the Initial Stockholders as described in Note 4, which such shares were forfeited by the Company’s transfer agent and were then reissued to the Initial Stockholders as of March 31, 2022. In addition, as of March 31, 2022, the sponsor had agreed to transfer an aggregate of 733,704 shares of Class B common stock to other purchasers of Private Placement Warrants as described in Note 4.

The sponsor has agreed, subject to limited exceptions, not to transfer, assign or sell any of the Founder Shares until the earlier to occur of: (i) one year after the date of the consummation of a Business Combination, or (ii) the date on which we consummate a liquidation, merger, stock exchange or other similar transaction which results in all of our stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of Class A common stock for cash, securities or other property.

NOTE 6 — COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Registration Rights

The holders of the Founder Shares, Private Placement Warrants and warrants that may be issued upon conversion of Working Capital Loans (and any shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of the Private Placement Warrants or warrants issued upon conversion of the Working Capital Loans and upon conversion of the Founder Shares) will be entitled to registration rights pursuant to a registration rights agreement to be signed prior to or on the effective date of Initial Public Offering requiring the Company to register such securities for resale (in the case of the Founder Shares, only after conversion to shares of Class A common stock). The holders of these securities will be entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short form registration demands, that the Company register such securities. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to completion of a Business Combination and rights to require the Company to register for resale such securities pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act. However, the registration rights agreement provides that the Company will not be required to effect or permit any registration or cause any registration statement to become effective until the securities covered thereby are released from their lock-up restrictions. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.

Underwriting Agreement

The Company granted the underwriter a 45-day option from the date of the IPO to purchase up to 1,500,000 additional Units to cover over-allotments, if any, at the IPO price less the underwriting discounts and commissions. As of March 31, 2022, the overallotment option had not been exercised by the underwriter. See Note 3 for additional details. On April 2, 2022, the overallotment option expired unexercised.

Business Combination Marketing Agreement

The Company will engage B. Riley Securities, Inc. as advisors in connection with its Business Combination to assist it in arranging meetings with its stockholders to discuss a potential business combination and the target business’ attributes, introduce it to potential investors that may be interested in purchasing its securities, assist it in obtaining stockholder approval for its Business Combination and assist it with the preparation of press releases and public filings in connection with the Business Combination. The Company will pay B. Riley Securities, Inc. for such services upon the consummation of the Business Combination a cash fee in an amount equal to 3.5% of the gross proceeds of the Initial Public Offering (exclusive of any applicable finders’ fees which might become payable) ($3,500,000 or up to $4,025,000 if the underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised in full). Pursuant to the terms of the business combination marketing agreement, no fee will be due if the Company does not complete a Business Combination. The Company determined in accordance with ASC 450-20 that the fee shall be accrued in full at the time of the consummation of the Business Combination as it determined that, at that point in time, the fee is probable and estimable, there is no material future service requirement nor is there any risk of forfeiture.

NOTE 7 — STOCKHOLDER’S EQUITY

Preferred Stock — The Company is authorized to issue 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock with a par value of $0.0001 per share with such designations, voting and other rights and preferences as may be determined from time to time by the Company’s board of directors. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, there were no shares of preferred stock issued or outstanding.

Class A Common Stock — The Company is authorized to issue 100,000,000 shares of Class A common stock with a par value of $0.0001 per share. Holders of Class A common stock are entitled to one vote for each share. At March 31, 2022, there were no shares of Class A common stock issued or outstanding, excluding 10,000,000 shares of Class A Common Stock subject to possible redemption. As of December 31, 2021, there were no shares of Class A common stock issued or outstanding.

Class B Common Stock — The Company is authorized to issue 10,000,000 shares of Class B common stock with a par value of $0.0001 per share. Holders of Class B common stock are entitled to one vote for each share. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, there were 2,875,000 Class B ordinary shares issued and outstanding, of which, up to 375,000 shares were subject to forfeiture. Effective April 2, 2022, the sponsor returned 375,000 shares of Class B common stock to the Company for cancellation, resulting in a total of 2,500,000 founder shares of Class B common stock issued and outstanding.

Table of Contents

Only holders of the Class B common stock will have the right to vote on the election of directors prior to the Business Combination. Holders of Class A common stock and holders of Class B common stock will vote together as a single class on all matters submitted to a vote of our stockholders except as otherwise required by law. In connection with our initial business combination, we may enter into a stockholders agreement or other arrangements with the stockholders of the target or other investors to provide for voting or other corporate governance arrangements that differ from those in effect upon completion of this offering.

The shares of Class B common stock will automatically convert into Class A common stock at the time of a Business Combination, or earlier at the option of the holder, on a one-for-one basis, subject to adjustment. 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 issued in the Initial Public Offering and related to the closing of a 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 then-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% of the sum of the total number of all shares of common stock outstanding upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering plus all shares of Class A common stock and equity-linked securities issued or deemed issued in connection with a Business Combination (net of the number of shares of Class A common stock redeemed in connection with a Business Combination), excluding any shares or equity-linked securities issued or issuable to any seller of an interest in the target to us in a Business Combination.

Warrants — As of March 31, 2022, there were 5,000,000 Public Warrants outstanding. See Note 3 for details. Public Warrants may only be exercised for a whole number of shares. No fractional warrants will be issued upon separation of the Units and only whole warrants will trade. The Public Warrants will become exercisable on the later of (a) 30 days after the completion of a Business Combination and (b) 12 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering. The Public Warrants will expire five years after the completion of a Business Combination or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.

The Company will not be obligated to deliver any shares of Class A common stock pursuant to the exercise of a warrant and will have no obligation to settle such warrant exercise unless a registration statement under the Securities Act covering the issuance of the shares of Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants is then effective and a current prospectus relating to those shares of Class A common stock is available, subject to the Company satisfying its obligations with respect to registration, or a valid exemption from registration is available. No warrant will be exercisable for cash or on a cashless basis, and the Company will not be obligated to issue any shares to holders seeking to exercise their warrants, unless the issuance of the shares upon such exercise is registered or qualified under the securities laws of the state of residence of the exercising holder, or an exemption from registration is available.

The Company has agreed that as soon as practicable after the closing of a Business Combination, the Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to file, and within 60 business days following a Business Combination to have declared effective, a registration statement covering the issuance of the shares of Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants and to maintain a current prospectus relating to those shares of Class A common stock until the warrants expire or are redeemed.

Redemption of Warrants When the Price per Share of Class A Common Stock Equals or Exceeds $18.00 — Once the warrants become exercisable, the Company may redeem the outstanding Public Warrants:

●

in whole and not in part;

●

at a price of $0.01 per Public Warrant;

●

upon a minimum of 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption, or the 30-day redemption period to each warrant holder; and

●

if, and only if, the last reported sale price of the Class A common stock equals or exceeds $18.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganization, recapitalizations and the like) for any 10 trading days within a 20-trading day period ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which the Company sends the notice of redemption to warrant holders.

If and when the warrants become redeemable by the Company, the Company may not exercise its redemption right if the issuance of shares of common stock upon exercise of the warrants is not exempt from registration or qualification under applicable state blue sky laws or the Company is unable to effect such registration or qualification. The Company will use its best efforts to register or qualify

Table of Contents

such shares of common stock under the blue sky laws of the state of residence in those states in which the warrants were offered by the Company in this offering.

If the Company calls the Public Warrants for redemption, as described above, its management will have the option to require any holder that wishes to exercise the Public Warrants to do so on a “cashless basis,” as described in the warrant agreement. The exercise price and number of common stock issuable upon exercise of the Public Warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances including in the event of a stock dividend, extraordinary dividend or recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation. However, except as described below, the Public Warrants will not be adjusted for issuances of common stock at a price below its exercise price. Additionally, in no event will the Company be required to net cash settle the Public Warrants. 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 Warrants will not receive any of such funds with respect to their Public Warrants, nor will they receive any distribution from the Company’s assets held outside of the Trust Account with respect to such Public Warrants. Accordingly, the Public Warrants may expire worthless.

In addition, if (x) the Company issues additional Class A common stock or equity-linked securities for capital raising purposes in connection with the closing of a Business Combination at an issue price or effective issue price of less than $9.20 per share of Class A common stock (with such issue price or effective issue price to be determined in good faith by the Company’s board of directors and, in the case of any such issuance to the sponsor or its affiliates, without taking into account any Founder Shares held by the sponsor or such affiliates, as applicable, prior to such issuance) (the “Newly Issued Price”), (y) the aggregate gross proceeds from such issuances represent more than 60% of the total equity proceeds, and interest thereon, available for the funding of a Business Combination on the date of the consummation of a Business Combination (net of redemptions), and (z) the volume weighted average trading price of the Class A common stock during the 20 trading day period starting on the trading day prior to the day on which the Company consummates a Business Combination (such price, the “Market Value”) is below $9.20 per share, the exercise price of the warrants will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 115% of the higher of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price, the $18.00 per share redemption trigger price will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 180% of the higher of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price, and the $10.00 per share redemption trigger price will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to the higher of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price.

As of March 31, 2022, there were 6,000,000 Private Placement Warrants outstanding. See Note 4 for details. The Private Placement Warrants are identical to the Public Warrants underlying the Units sold in the Initial Public Offering, except that the Private Placement Warrants do not trade.

NOTE 8 — SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

The Company evaluated subsequent events and transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date through the date the financial statements were issued. Based upon this review, the Company did not identify any subsequent events that would have required adjustment or disclosure in the financial statements.

Overview

We are a blank check company recently incorporated as a Delaware corporation whose business purpose is to effect a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or other similar business combination with one or more businesses, which we refer to throughout this Annual Report as our initial business combination. We have not selected any specific business combination target and we have not, nor has anyone on our behalf, initiated any substantive discussions, directly or indirectly, with any business combination target with respect to an initial business combination with us.

On February 15, 2022, we consummated our initial public offering (the “IPO”) of 10,000,000 units (the “Units”). Each Unit consists of one share of the Company’s Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, and one-half of one redeemable public warrant of the Company, with each whole public warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one whole share of Class A common stock at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment as provided in our registration statement on Form S-1, initially filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on January 6, 2022, as later amended (File No. 333-262042). The Units were sold at a price of $10.00 per unit, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $100,000,000.

Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO and in a second closing on February 28, 2022, we completed the private sale of an aggregate of 6,000,000 private placement warrants to the sponsor and certain initial stockholders, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $6,000,000.

None of the funds held in trust will be released from the trust account, other than interest income to pay any tax obligations until the earlier of (i) our consummation of our initial business combination, and then only in connection with those shares of common stock that such stockholder properly elected to redeem, subject to the limitations described herein, (ii) the redemption of our public shares if we are unable to consummate our initial business combination within 15 months, or up to 21 months if an extension is properly effected, as described below, after the closing of the IPO, or (iii) if we seek to amend our certificate of incorporation to affect the substance or timing of our obligation to redeem all public shares if we cannot complete an initial business combination within 15 months, or up to 21 months if an extension is properly effected, as described below, after the closing of the IPO, and such amendment is duly approved.

Table of Contents

While we may pursue an initial business combination target in any industry or geographic region, we intend to focus on direct-to-consumer media, technology, emerging digital enterprise sectors focused businesses that have an aggregate enterprise value of approximately $550 million to $1.2 billion and would benefit from access to public markets and the operational and strategic expertise of our management team and board of directors. We will seek to capitalize on the significant experience of our management team in consummating an initial business combination with the ultimate goal of pursuing attractive returns for our stockholders.

As indicated in the accompanying financial statements, at March 31, 2022, we had $1,168,665 in cash and working capital of $465,079. On April 2, 2022, the overallotment option expired unexercised, such that working capital increased by approximately $600,000 as of such date. Further, we expect to continue to incur significant costs in the pursuit of our initial business combination plans. We cannot assure you that our plans to raise capital or to complete our initial business combination will be successful.

Results of Operations

We have neither engaged in any operations nor generated any revenues to date. Our only activities since inception have been organizational activities and those necessary to prepare for our initial public offering. Following this the initial public offering, we will not generate any operating revenues until after completion of our initial business combination. We will generate non-operating income in the form of interest income on cash and cash equivalents after the initial public offering. There has been no significant change in our financial or trading position and no material adverse change has occurred since the date of our financial statements. After the initial public offering, we expect to incur increased expenses as a result of being a public company (for legal, financial reporting, accounting and auditing compliance), as well as expenses as we conduct due diligence on prospective business combination candidates. We expect our expenses to increase substantially after the closing of the initial public offering.

For the three months ended March 31, 2022, we had net loss of $184,449, which consisted of formation and operating costs of $234,630 (including franchise taxes of $50,000), partially offset by other income of $50,181 which was primarily comprised of interest income on investments held in trust account.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Table of Contents

For the three months ended March 31, 2022, cash used in operating activities was $119,108, which was attributable to cash used to fund the net loss of $184,449, adjusted for net non-cash income of $34,139, partially offset by $99,480 of cash provided by changes in the levels of operating assets and liabilities. For the period from February 18, 2021 (inception) through March 31, 2021, there was no net cash provided by operating activities.

For the three months ended March 31, 2022, cash used in investing activities was $102,000,000, which was attributable to the investment of cash in the Trust Account. For the period from February 18, 2021 (inception) through March 31, 2021, there was no net cash provided by investing activities.

For the three months ended March 31, 2022, cash provided by financing activities was $103,286,603, which was primarily attributable to proceeds of $106,000,000 from the IPO and private placement, partially offset by the payment of offering costs of $2,678,397 and the net repayment of a note payable to the Company’s chief financial officer in the amount of $35,000. For the period from February 18, 2021 (inception) through March 31, 2021, there was $25,000 of cash provided by financing activities, which was attributable to the issuance of founder shares to the sponsor.

The net proceeds from the IPO, together with certain of the proceeds from the private sale of the private placement warrants, $102,000,000 in the aggregate, were placed in a U.S.-based trust account maintained by Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, acting as trustee. We intend to use substantially all of the funds held in the trust account, including any amounts representing interest earned on the trust account to complete our initial business combination. We may withdraw interest to pay franchise and income taxes. We estimate our annual franchise tax obligations, based on the number of shares of our common stock authorized and outstanding after the completion of the offering, to be $200,000, which is the maximum amount of annual franchise taxes payable by us as a Delaware corporation per annum, which we may pay from funds from the offering held outside of the trust account or from interest earned on the funds held in our trust account and released to us for this purpose. Our annual income tax obligations will depend on the amount of interest and other income earned on the amounts held in the trust account. We expect the interest earned on the amount in the trust account will be sufficient to pay our income taxes. To the extent that our capital stock or debt is used, in whole or in part, as consideration to complete our initial 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. Further, we have incurred and expect to continue to incur significant costs in pursuit of our acquisition plans. We cannot assure you that our plans to raise capital or to consummate an initial business combination will be successful.

As a result of our IPO and private placement offering, we believe that our current cash on hand held outside of the trust account is sufficient to meet our operating and capital requirements for at least the next twelve months from the date these financial statements are issued. Our operating needs include funds to identify and evaluate target businesses, perform business due diligence on prospective target businesses, travel to and from the offices, plants or similar locations of prospective target businesses or their representatives or owners, review corporate documents and material agreements of prospective target businesses, and structure, negotiate and complete an initial business combination.

In order to fund working capital deficiencies or finance transaction costs in connection with an intended initial business combination, our sponsor or an affiliate of our sponsor or certain of our officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan us funds as may be required. If we complete our initial business combination, we would repay such loaned amounts. In the event that our initial business combination does not close, we may use a portion of the working capital held outside the trust account to repay such loaned amounts but no proceeds from our trust account would be used for such repayment. Up to $1,500,000 of such working capital loans may be convertible into private placement-equivalent warrants at a price of $1.00 per warrant, at the option of the lender. Such warrants would

Table of Contents

be identical to the private placement warrants, including as to exercise price, exercisability and exercise period. The terms of such working capital loans by our sponsor or its affiliates, or our officers and directors, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such loans. We do not expect to seek loans from parties other than our sponsor or an affiliate of our sponsor as we do not believe third parties will be willing to loan such funds and provide a waiver against any and all rights to seek access to funds in our trust account.

We expect our primary liquidity requirements during that period to include approximately $500,000 for legal, accounting, $400,000 for director and office liability insurance premiums, due diligence, travel and other expenses associated with structuring, negotiating and documenting successful business combinations; $150,000 for legal and accounting fees related to regulatory reporting requirements; $75,000 for Nasdaq continued listing fees; $240,000 for office space, utilities and secretarial and administrative support; and approximately $35,000 for working capital that will be used for miscellaneous expenses and reserves (including taxes net of anticipated interest income).

These amounts are estimates and may differ materially from our actual expenses. In addition, we could use a portion of the funds not being placed in trust to pay commitment fees for financing, fees to consultants to assist us with our search for a target business or as a down payment or to fund a “no-shop” provision (a provision designed to keep target businesses from “shopping” around for transactions with other companies on terms more favorable to such target businesses) with respect to a particular proposed initial business combination, although we do not have any current intention to do so. If we entered into an agreement where we paid for the right to receive exclusivity from a target business, the amount that would be used as a down payment or to fund a “no-shop” provision would be determined based on the terms of the specific business combination and the amount of our available funds at the time. Our forfeiture of such funds (whether as a result of our breach or otherwise) could result in our not having sufficient funds to continue searching for, or conducting due diligence with respect to, prospective target businesses.

We do not believe we will need to raise additional funds following this offering in order to meet the expenditures required for operating our business. However, if our estimates of the costs of identifying a target business, undertaking in-depth due diligence and negotiating an initial 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. Moreover, we may need to obtain additional financing either to complete our initial business combination or because we become obligated to redeem a significant number of our public shares upon completion of our initial business combination, in which case we may issue additional securities or incur debt in connection with such business combination. In addition, we intend to target businesses larger than we could acquire with the net proceeds of this offering and the sale of the private placement warrants, and may as a result be required to seek additional financing to complete such proposed initial business combination. Subject to compliance with applicable securities laws, we would only complete such financing simultaneously with the completion of our initial business combination. If we are unable to complete our initial business combination because we do not have sufficient funds available to us, we will be forced to cease operations and liquidate the trust account. In addition, following our initial business combination, if cash on hand is insufficient, we may need to obtain additional financing in order to meet our obligations.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of March 31, 2022, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

Contractual Obligations

At March 31, 2022, we did not have any long-term debt, capital lease obligations, operating lease obligations, long-term liabilities, commitments or contractual obligations.

Administrative Support Agreement

Commencing on February 10, 2022, we have agreed to pay an affiliate of our sponsor a total of $10,000 per month for office space, utilities and secretarial and administrative support. Upon completion of our initial business combination or our liquidation, we will cease paying these monthly fees.

Registration Rights

The holders of our founder shares, private placement warrants and warrants that may be issued upon conversion of working capital loans (and any shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of the private placement warrants or warrants issued upon conversion of the working capital loans and upon conversion of the founder shares) are entitled to registration rights pursuant to a registration rights agreement signed on the effective date of the IPO requiring the Company to register such securities for resale (in the case of the Founder Shares, only after conversion to shares of Class A common stock). The holders of these securities will be entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short form registration demands, that the Company register such securities. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to completion of our initial business combination and rights to require the Company to register for resale such securities pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act. However, the registration rights agreement provides that the Company will not be required to effect or permit any registration or cause any registration statement to become effective until the securities covered thereby are released from their lock-up restrictions. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.

Riley as advisors in connection with its initial business combination to assist it in arranging meetings with its stockholders to discuss a potential business combination and the target business’ attributes, introduce it to potential investors that may be interested in purchasing its securities, assist it in obtaining stockholder approval for its initial business combination and assist it with the preparation of press releases and public filings in connection with the initial business combination. The Company will pay B. Riley for such services upon the consummation of the Company’s initial business combination a cash fee in an amount equal to 3.5% of the gross proceeds of the IPO (exclusive of any applicable finders’ fees which might become payable) ($3,500,000 or up to $4,025,000 if the underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised in full). Pursuant to the terms of the business combination marketing agreement, no fee will be due if the Company does not complete an initial business combination. The Company determined in accordance with ASC 450-20 that the fee shall be accrued in full at the time of the consummation of the initial business combination as it determined that, at that point in time, the fee is probable and estimable, there is no material future service requirement nor is there any risk of forfeiture.

Critical Accounting Estimates

The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures must be in conformity with U.S. GAAP. These accounting principles require us to make estimates and judgments that can affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements as well as the reported amounts of revenue and expense during the periods presented. We believe that the estimates and judgments upon which it relies are reasonably based upon information available to us at the time that it makes these estimates and judgments. To the extent that there are material differences between these estimates and actual results, our financial results will be affected. The accounting policies that reflect our more significant estimates and judgments and which we believe are the most critical to aid in fully understanding and evaluating our reported financial results are described below.

The following is not intended to be a comprehensive list of all of our accounting policies or estimates. Our accounting policies are more fully described in Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, in our financial statements included in this Quarterly Report.

times, shares are classified within shareholders’ equity. Accordingly, at March 31, 2022, Class A Common Stock subject to possible redemption are presented at redemption value as temporary equity, outside of stockholders’ deficiency on the Company’s balance sheet.

Warrants and Overallotment Liability

The Company evaluates the Public Warrants, Private Warrants and overallotment option as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the specific terms of the instrument and applicable authoritative guidance in ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (“ASC 480”) and ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”). The assessment considers whether the instrument is freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, meets the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and whether the instrument meets all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the instrument is indexed to the Company’s own common stock, among other conditions for equity classification. Pursuant to such evaluation, both Public and Private Warrants are classified in stockholders’ equity and the overallotment option is classified as a current liability and, accordingly, was measured at fair value upon issuance and will be remeasured at each balance sheet date thereafter, with changes in the estimated fair value recognized through earnings.

Recent Accounting Standards

In August 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“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 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 for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021 and should be applied on a full or modified retrospective basis. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company adopted ASU 2020-06 effective January 1, 2022. The adoption of ASU 2020-06 did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed financial statements.

Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in company reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer (who serves as our Principal Executive Officer) and Chief Financial Officer (who serves as our Principal Financial and Accounting Officer), as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

As required by Rules 13a 15 and 15d 15 under the Exchange Act, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2022. Based upon his evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a 15(e) and 15d 15(e) under the Exchange Act) were effective as of March 31, 2022.

Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities

There were no issuances of unregistered securities during the period covered by this Annual Report which were not previously included in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Company.

Use of Proceeds

On February 15, 2022, the Company consummated its IPO of 10,000,000 Units. Each Unit consists of one share of the Company’s Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, and one-half of one redeemable public warrant of the Company, with each whole public warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one whole share of Class A common stock at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment as provided in the Company’s registration statement on Form S-1, initially filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on January 6, 2022, as later amended (File No. 333-262042). The Units were sold at a price of $10.00 per unit, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $100,000,000.

Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO and in a second closing on February 28, 2022, the Company completed the private sale of an aggregate of 6,000,000 private placement warrants to the sponsor and certain initial stockholders, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $6,000,000.

None of the funds held in trust will be released from the trust account, other than interest income to pay any tax obligations until the earlier of (i) our consummation of our initial business combination, and then only in connection with those shares of common stock that such stockholder properly elected to redeem, subject to the limitations described herein, (ii) the redemption of our public shares if we are unable to consummate our initial business combination within 15 months, or up to 21 months if an extension is properly effected, as described below, after the closing of the IPO, or (iii) if we seek to amend our certificate of incorporation to affect the substance or timing of our obligation to redeem all public shares if we cannot complete an initial business combination within 15 months, or up to 21 months if an extension is properly effected, after the closing of the IPO, and such amendment is duly approved.

We also repaid $370,000 in interest-bearing loans made to us by our Chief Financial Officer to cover expenses related to the Public Offering. Other than as described above, no payments were made by us to directors, officers or persons owning ten percent or more of our common stock or to their associates, or to our affiliates.
