NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

NOTE 1 — ORGANIZATION, BUSINESS OPERATIONS, AND GOING CONCERN

 

Blue World Acquisition Corporation (the “Company”) is a blank check exempted company incorporated on July 19, 2021, under the laws of the Cayman Islands for the purpose of entering into a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities (“Business Combination”). 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 is subject to all risks associated with emerging growth companies (See Note 2). The Company’s efforts to identify a prospective target business will primarily in the marine leisure, cruise, marine infrastructure and engineering, general hospitality, travel and tourism, marine services, logistics and supply chain, offshore energy solutions and related industry segments. The Company is not limited to a particular region for purposes of consummating an initial Business Combination, however, the Company may focus on targets that, regardless of geographic location of operations or corporate offices, have viable synergies with the Asia Pacific and the U.S. markets for the above industry segments, either physically or virtually. The Company will not undertake its initial Business Combination with any entity that conducts a majority of its business or is headquartered in China (including Hong Kong and Macau).

 

As of September 30, 2023, the Company had not commenced any operations. For the period from July 19, 2021 (inception) through September 30, 2023, the Company’s efforts have been limited to organizational activities as well as activities related to its initial public offering (the “Initial Public Offering”) as described below. The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of a Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company will generate non-operating income in the form of dividend/interest income from the proceeds derived from the Initial Public Offering. The Company has selected June 30 as its fiscal year end.

  

The registration statement for the Company’s Initial Public Offering became effective on January 31, 2022. On February 2, 2022, the Company consummated the Initial Public Offering of 9,200,000 units (including 1,200,000 units issued upon the full exercise of the over-allotment option, the “Public Units”). Each Public Unit consists of one Class A ordinary share, $0.0001 par value per share (the “Class A Ordinary Shares”), one-half of one redeemable warrant (the “Public Warrants”), each whole Public Warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one Class A Ordinary Share at an exercise price of $11.50 per share, and one right (the “Public Rights”), each one Public Right entitling the holder thereof to exchange for one-tenth of one Class A Ordinary Share upon the completion of the Company’s initial Business Combination. The Public Units were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per Public Unit, generating gross proceeds of $92,000,000 on February 2, 2022.

  

Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company completed the private sale of 424,480 units (the “Private Units”) including 378,480 Private Units to the Company’s sponsor, Blue World Holdings Limited (the “Sponsor”), and 46,000 Private Units to Maxim Group LLC (or its designees) (“Maxim”), the representative of the several underwriters (the “Representative”), respectively. Each Private Unit consists of one Class A Ordinary Share, one-half of one redeemable warrant (the “Private Warrants”), each whole Private Warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one Class A Ordinary Share at an exercise price of $11.50 per share, and one right (the “Private Rights”), each one Private Right entitling the holder thereof to exchange for one-tenth of one Class A Ordinary Share upon the completion of the Company’s initial Business Combination. The Private Units were sold at a purchase price of $10.00 per Private Unit, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $4,244,800. The Private Units are identical to the Public Units sold in the Initial Public Offering, except that the holders of the Private Units have agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of the Private Units and the underlying securities (except to certain permitted transferees) until the completion of the Company’s initial Business Combination.

  

 

BLUE WORLD ACQUISITION CORPORATION

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

The Company also issued 40,000 shares of Class A Ordinary Shares (the “Representative Shares”) to Maxim as part of representative compensation. The Representative Shares are identical to the Class A Ordinary Shares sold as part of the Public Units, except that Maxim has agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any such Representative Shares until the completion of the Company’s initial Business Combination. In addition, Maxim has agreed (i) to waive its redemption rights with respect to such shares in connection with the completion of the Company’s initial Business Combination and (ii) to waive its rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to such shares if the Company fails to complete its initial Business Combination within the prescribed time period. The Representative Shares have been deemed compensation by FINRA and are therefore subject to a lock-up for a period of 180 days immediately following the date of the effectiveness of the registration statement pursuant to FINRA Rule 5110 (e)(1). Pursuant to FINRA Rule 5110(e)(1), these securities will not be the subject of any hedging, short sale, derivative, put or call transaction that would result in the economic disposition of the securities by any person for a period of 180 days immediately following the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, nor may they be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated for a period of 180 days immediately following the effective date of the registration statement except to any underwriter and selected dealer participating in the offering and their officers, partners, registered persons or affiliates.

 

Transaction costs amounted to $5,919,648, consisting of $1,840,000 of underwriting discounts and commissions, $3,220,000 of deferred underwriting commissions, $551,390 of other offering costs and $308,258 fair value of the Representative Shares issued to Maxim.

  

Following the closing of the Initial Public Offering and the issuance and the sale of Private Units on February 2, 2022, $92,920,000 ($10.10 per Public Unit) from the net proceeds of the sale of the Public Units in the Initial Public Offering and the sale of Private Units was placed in a trust account (the “Trust Account”) maintained by Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC as a trustee and invested the proceeds in U.S. government treasury bills, bonds or notes having a maturity of 185 days or less, or in money market funds meeting the applicable conditions under Rule 2a-7 promulgated under the Investment Company Act of 1940 and that invest solely in United States government treasuries, so that we are not deemed to be an investment company under the Investment Company Act. The proceeds held in the Trust Account will not be released until the earlier of: (1) the completion of the Company’s initial Business Combination within the required time period and (2) its redemption of 100% of the outstanding public shares if the Company has not completed a Business Combination in the required time period. Therefore, unless and until the Company’s initial Business Combination is consummated, the proceeds held in the Trust Account will not be available for the Company’s use for any expenses related to the Initial Public Offering or expenses which the Company may incur related to the investigation and selection of a target business and the negotiation of an agreement in connection with its initial Business Combination.

  

The Company will provide its public shareholders with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their public shares upon the completion of an initial Business Combination at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account as of two business days prior to the consummation of its initial Business Combination, including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay its taxes, divided by the number of then outstanding public shares, subject to certain limitations. The amount in the Trust Account is initially anticipated to be $10.10 per public share. The per-share amount the Company will distribute to investors who properly redeem their shares will not be reduced by deferred underwriting commissions the Company will pay to the underwriters (as discussed in Note 6). The ordinary shares subject to redemption is being recorded at a redemption value and classified as temporary equity upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering, in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.”

  

The Company will proceed with a Business Combination if the Company has net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001 upon such consummation of a Business Combination and, if the Company seeks shareholder approval, a majority of the outstanding shares voted are voted in favor of the Business Combination. If a shareholder vote is not required and the Company does not decide to hold a shareholder vote for business or other legal reasons, the Company will, pursuant to its Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, offer such redemption pursuant to the tender offer rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), and file tender offer documents containing substantially the same information as would be included in a proxy statement with the SEC prior to completing a Business Combination.

  

 

BLUE WORLD ACQUISITION CORPORATION

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

The Company’s founders and Maxim (the “Initial Shareholders”) have agreed (a) to vote their Founder Shares (as defined below), the Class A Ordinary Shares included in the Private Units (the “Private Shares”), the Representative Shares and any Class A Ordinary Shares included in the Public Units (the “Public Shares”) purchased during or after the Initial Public Offering in favor of a Business Combination, (b) not to propose, or vote in favor of, an amendment to the Company’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association that would stop the public shareholders from redeeming or selling their shares to the Company in connection with a Business Combination or affect the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to redeem 100% of the Public Shares if the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period (as defined below) unless the Company provides dissenting public shareholders with the opportunity to redeem their Public Shares into the right to receive cash from the Trust Account in connection with any such vote; (c) not to redeem any Founder Shares, Private Share, and Representative Shares (as well as any Public Shares purchased during or after the Initial Public Offering) into the right to receive cash from the Trust Account in connection with a shareholder vote to approve a Business Combination (or sell any shares in a tender offer in connection with a Business Combination) or a vote to amend the provisions of the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association relating to shareholders’ rights of pre-Business Combination activity and (d) that the Founder Shares, Private Shares, and Representative Shares shall not participate in any liquidating distributions upon winding up if a Business Combination is not consummated. However, the initial shareholders will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to any Public Shares purchased during or after the Initial Public Offering if the Company fails to complete its Business Combination.

 

The Company initially had until February 2, 2023 to complete an initial Business Combination. However, if the Company anticipates that it may not be able to consummate a Business Combination by February 2, 2023, the Company may, but is not obligated to, extend the period of time to consummate a Business Combination three times by an additional three months each time (for a total of up to November 2, 2023 to complete a Business Combination). In order to extend the time available for the Company to consummate a Business Combination, the Sponsor or its affiliates or designees must deposit into the Trust Account $920,000 ($0.10 per share in either case), on or prior to the applicable deadline. On February 2, 2023, $920,000 was deposited into the Trust Account to extend the period of time it has to consummate its initial business combination for additional three months from February 2, 2023 to May 2, 2023.

  

On May 2, 2023, the Company held an extraordinary general meeting (the “May 2023 Meeting”) at which its shareholders approved the adoption of the Second Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association of the Company, which provides that the Company has until May 2, 2023 to complete an initial Business Combination, and may elect to extend the period to consummate an initial Business Combination up to nine times, each by an additional one-month extension, for a total of up to nine months to February 2, 2024 by depositing $0.0295 per public share into the Trust Account for each monthly extension. As a result of May 2023 Meeting, on May 2, 2023, a total of $194,324 was deposited into the Trust Account for the public shareholders, representing $0.0295 per remaining public share, which enables the Company to extend the period of time it has to consummate its initial business combination by one month from May 2, 2023 to June 2, 2023.

  

On June 2, 2023, a total of $194,324 was deposited into the Trust Account for the public shareholders, representing $0.0295 per remaining public share, which enables the Company to extend the period of time it has to consummate its initial business combination by one month from June 2, 2023 to July 2, 2023.

  

On June 30, 2023, the Company held an extraordinary general meeting (the “June 2023 Meeting”), where the shareholders of the Company approved the adoption of the Third Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association of the Company, which provides that the Company has until July 2, 2023 to complete a Business Combination, and may elect to extend the period to consummate a Business Combination up to nine times, each by an additional one-month extension, for a total of up to nine months to April 2, 2024, by depositing $60,000 each month to the Trust Account.

  

On June 30, 2023, a total of $60,000 of the Monthly Extension Payment was deposited into the Trust Account for the public shareholders, which enables the Company to extend the period of time it has to consummate its initial business combination by one month from July 2, 2023 to August 2, 2023.

  

 

BLUE WORLD ACQUISITION CORPORATION

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

On July 31, 2023, a total of $60,000 of the Monthly Extension Payment was deposited into the Trust Account for the public shareholders, which enables the Company to extend the period of time it has to consummate its initial business combination by one month from August 2, 2023 to September 2, 2023.

  

On September 1, 2023, a total of $60,000 of the Monthly Extension Payment was deposited into the Trust Account for the public shareholders, which enables the Company to extend the period of time it has to consummate its initial business combination by one month from September 2, 2023 to October 2, 2023.

 

On September 27, 2023, a total of $60,000 of the Monthly Extension Payment was deposited into the Trust Account for the public shareholders, which enables the Company to extend the period of time it has to consummate its initial business combination by one month from October 2, 2023 to November 2, 2023.

  

On November 1, 2023, a total of $60,000 of the Monthly Extension Payment was deposited into the Trust Account for the public shareholders, which enables the Company to extend the period of time it has to consummate its initial business combination by one month from November 2, 2023 to December 2, 2023 (the “Combination Period”).

 

If the Company is unable to complete 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 no more than ten business days thereafter, redeem 100% of the outstanding 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 (net of less up to $50,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses and taxes payable), which redemption will completely extinguish public shareholders’ rights as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any), subject to applicable law, and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the remaining shareholders and the Company’s board of directors, proceed to commence a voluntary liquidation and thereby a formal dissolution of the Company, subject in each case to its obligations under Cayman Island law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law.

  

The Sponsor has agreed that it will 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 entered into a written letter of intent, confidentiality or similar agreement or business combination agreement, reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account to below the lesser of (i) $10.10 per Public Share and (ii) the actual amount per Public Share held in the Trust Account as of the date of the liquidation of the Trust Account, if less than $10.10 per share due to reductions in the value of the trust assets, less taxes payable, provided that such liability will not apply to any claims by a third party or prospective target business who executed a waiver of any and all rights to the monies held in the Trust Account (whether or not such waiver is enforceable) nor will it apply to any claims under the Company’s indemnity of the underwriters of the Initial Public Offering against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act. However, the Company has not asked the Sponsor to reserve for such indemnification obligations, nor have its independently verified whether the Sponsor has sufficient funds to satisfy its indemnity obligations and believe that the Sponsor’s only assets are securities of the Company. Therefore, the Company cannot assure that the Sponsor would be able to satisfy those obligations. None of the Company’s officers or directors will indemnify the Company for claims by third parties including, without limitation, claims by vendors and prospective target businesses.

  

Redemptions

  

On May 2, 2023, the Company held the May 2023 Meeting at which its shareholders approved the adoption of the Second Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association of the Company, which provides that the Company has until May 2, 2023 to complete an initial Business Combination, and may elect to extend the period to consummate an initial Business Combination up to nine times, each by an additional one-month extension, for a total of up to nine months to February 2, 2024 by depositing $0.0295 per public share into the Trust Account for each monthly extension.

In connection with the June 2023 Meeting, 2,749,465 Class A Ordinary Shares were rendered for redemption, and approximately $29.3 million was released from the Trust Account to pay such redeeming shareholders in July 2023.

  

Merger Agreement

  

On August 10, 2023, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (as the same may be amended, restated or supplemented, the “Merger Agreement”) with TOYO Co., Ltd, a Cayman Islands exempted company (“PubCo”), TOYOone Limited, a Cayman Islands exempted company (“Merger Sub”), TOPTOYO INVESTMENT PTE. LTD., a Singapore private company limited by shares (“SinCo”), Vietnam Sunergy Cell Company Limited, a Vietnamese company, (the “Company”, together with PubCo, Merger Sub and SinCo, the “Group Companies”, or each individually, a “Group Company”), Vietnam Sunergy Joint Stock Company, a Vietnam joint stock company (“VSUN”), and Fuji Solar Co., Ltd, a Japanese company (“Fuji Solar”, together with VSUN, the “Shareholders”, or individually, a “Shareholder”).

  

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, (a) the Group Companies, VSUN and Fuji Solar shall consummate a series of transactions involving the Group Companies, including (A) PubCo acquiring one hundred percent (100%) of the issued and paid-up share capital of SinCo from Fuji Solar in exchange for one (1) ordinary share of PubCo, par value US$0.0001 per share (the “PubCo Ordinary Shares” and such transaction, the “Share Exchange”), and (B) SinCo acquiring one hundred percent (100%) of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company from VSUN at an aggregate consideration of no less than US$50,000,000 (the “SinCo Acquisition,” and together with the Share Exchange, the “Pre-Merger Reorganization”), as a result of which (i) SinCo shall become a wholly-owned subsidiary of PubCo, (ii) the Company shall become a wholly-owned subsidiary of SinCo; and (iii) immediately prior to the closing of the SinCo Acquisition, Fuji Solar (the “Seller”) shall hold an aggregate of 41,000,000 PubCo Ordinary Shares, representing all issued and outstanding share capital of PubCo, and (b) following the consummation of the Pre-Merger Reorganization, BWAQ shall merge with and into Merger Sub, with Merger Sub continuing as the surviving company (the “Merger”), as a result of which, among other things, all of the issued and outstanding securities of BWAQ immediately prior to the filing of the plan of merger with respect to the Merger (the “Plan of Merger”) to the Registrar of Companies of the Cayman Islands, or such later time as may be specified in the Plan of Merger (the “Merger Effective Time”) shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be cancelled, in exchange for the right of the holders thereof to receive substantially equivalent securities of PubCo, in each case, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement and in accordance with the provisions of the Companies Act (Revised) of the Cayman Islands and other applicable laws.

  

Liquidity and Going Concern

  

As of September 30, 2023, the Company had cash of $50,517 and a working deficit of $2,014,193. The Company has incurred and expects to continue to incur significant professional costs to remain as a publicly traded company and to incur significant transaction costs in pursuit of the consummation of a Business Combination. In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with Financial Accounting Standard Board’s Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-15, “Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern,” management has determined that these conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The management’s plan in addressing this uncertainty is through the Working Capital Loans, as defined below (see Note 5). In addition, if the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period by December 2, 2023, unless further extended, the Company’s board of directors would proceed to commence a voluntary liquidation and thereby a formal dissolution of the Company. There is no assurance that the Company’s plans to consummate a Business Combination will be successful within the Combination Period. As a result, management has determined that such additional condition also raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The unaudited condensed financial statement does not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

  

Risks and Uncertainties

  

As a result of the military action commenced in February 2022 by the Russian Federation and Belarus in the country of Ukraine and related economic sanctions, the Company’s ability to consummate a Business Combination, or the operations of a target business with which the Company ultimately consummates a Business Combination, may be materially and adversely affected. In addition, the Company’s ability to consummate a transaction may be dependent on the ability to raise equity and debt financing which may be impacted by these events, including as a result of increased market volatility, or decreased market liquidity in third-party financing being unavailable on terms acceptable to the Company or at all. The impact of this action and related sanctions on the world economy and the specific impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations and/or ability to consummate a Business Combination are not yet determinable. The unaudited condensed financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

  

●	Basis of presentation

 

These accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information or footnote disclosures normally included in unaudited condensed financial statements prepared in accordance with US GAAP have been condensed or omitted, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC for interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of a normal recurring nature, which are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, operating results and cash flows for the periods presented.

  

The interim results for the three months ended September 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending June 30, 2024 or for any future interim periods. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes should be read in conjunction with the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023.

  

●	Emerging growth company status

 

The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by 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 independent registered public accounting firm 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

 

In preparing these unaudited condensed financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP, management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited condensed financial statements and the reported expenses during the reporting period.

 

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 unaudited condensed financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, actual results may differ from these 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 had $50,517 and $746 in cash as of September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023, respectively. The Company did not have any cash equivalents as of September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023.

  

●	Investment held in Trust Account

For the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, dividend earned and held in the Trust Account amounted to $605,898 and $419,401, respectively.

  

The Company classifies its U.S. Treasury and equivalent securities as held-to-maturity in accordance with ASC Topic 320 “Investments — Debt and Equity Securities.” Held-to-maturity securities are those securities which the Company has the ability and intent to hold until maturity. Held-to-maturity treasury securities are recorded at amortized cost on the accompanying balance sheet and adjusted for the amortization or accretion of premiums or discounts.

 

●	Cash held in Escrow Account

 

The Company has entered into a certain escrow agreement with Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company who acts as the escrow agent pursuant to which the Company agreed to deposit the aggregated amount of $1,000,000 ($500,000 payable upon the closing of Initial Public Offering and $500,000 payable one business day prior to the entry of a definitive agreement in connection with an initial Business Combination) into the escrow account until the earlier of (i) one year of the closing of an initial Business Combination; (ii) one year of the Company’s liquidation or windup in accordance with the Company’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association; and (iii) such date as may be approved by the Company’s shareholders in accordance with the amended and restated memorandum and articles of association (such arrangement is referred as “indemnity escrow”). The escrow fund will be released by the escrow agent under joint instruction by the Company and its claim manager Andros Risk Services LLC, who would act pursuant to the claim coverage guidelines provided thereof, which, among others, include indemnification for (i) loss from any claims first made against the Company’s directors, officers and risk manager for a Wrongful Act (as defined in escrow agreement) during the period from the effectiveness of the Company’s registration statement on January 31, 2022 until the earlier of (A) the closing of an initial Business Combination and (B) the Company’s liquidation or windup (the “Coverage Period”), loss or inquiry costs from any investigations of or Inquiry (as defined in escrow agreement) received by the Company’s directors, officers and risk manager during the Coverage Period; (ii) loss of the Company, the Sponsor, or the Company’s successor to indemnify its directors officers and risk manager for item (i) above; (iii) loss from any Securities Claim (as defined in the escrow agreement) first made against the Company during the Coverage Period for a wrongful act and its costs, charges, or expenses in seeking dismissal of any Derivative Suit (as defined in escrow agreement), subject to certain conditions, and other certain coverage guidelines against the Company; and (iv) any costs incurred by the Company in connection with Security Holder Demand Investigation (as defined in the as defined in the escrow agreement) for a wrongful act and Books and Records Demand (as defined in the indemnity escrow) first received by the Company during the Coverage Period.

●	Net income (loss) per ordinary share

 

The Company complies with accounting and disclosure requirements of FASB ASC 260, Earnings Per Share. The Company has two classes of shares, which are referred to as redeemable shares and non-redeemable shares. Earnings and losses are shared pro rata between the two classes of shares. In order to determine the net loss attributable to both the redeemable shares and non-redeemable shares, the Company first considered the undistributed income (loss) allocable to both the redeemable ordinary shares and non-redeemable ordinary shares and the undistributed income (loss) is calculated using the total net income (loss) less any dividends paid. The Company then allocated the undistributed income (loss) ratably based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding between the redeemable and non-redeemable ordinary shares. The table below presents a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator used to compute basic and diluted net income (loss) per share for each class of ordinary shares:

  

		For the Three Months Ended								For the Three Months Ended
		September 30, 2023								September 30, 2022
		Redeemable Class A Ordinary Shares				Non-Redeemable Class A and Class B Ordinary Shares				Redeemable Class A Ordinary Shares				Non-Redeemable Class A and Class B Ordinary Shares

Basic and diluted net income per share		$	0.06			$	0.06			$	0.02			$	0.02

 

●	Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption

 

The Company accounts for its ordinary shares subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in ASC Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” Ordinary shares subject to mandatory redemption (if any) are classified as a liability instrument and measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable ordinary shares (including ordinary 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 as temporary equity. At all other times, ordinary shares are classified as shareholders’ equity. The Company’s Class A Ordinary Shares feature certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to the occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, 3,837,766 and 6,587,231 Class A Ordinary Shares subject to possible redemption are presented at redemption value as temporary equity, outside of the shareholders’ equity section of the Company’s balance sheets as of September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023, respectively.

 

The Company recognizes changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and adjusts the carrying value of Class A Ordinary Shares to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Increases or decreases in the carrying amount of redeemable Class A Ordinary Shares are affected by charges against additional paid in capital and accumulated deficit.

 

As of September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023, the amount of Class A Ordinary Shares reflected on the balance sheet are reconciled in the following table:

 

Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption, June 30, 2022		$	93,054,401
Less:
Redemptions of Class A ordinary shares			(27,406,155	)
Plus:

Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption, June 30, 2023			70,186,561
Less:

Plus:
Re-measurement adjustment on redeemable ordinary shares			785,898
Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption, September 30, 2023		$	41,666,547

●

Warrants

 

The Company accounts for warrants as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the warrant’s specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (“ASC 480”) and ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”). The assessment considers whether the warrants are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and whether the warrants meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the warrants are indexed to the Company’s own ordinary shares and whether the warrant holders could potentially require “net cash settlement” in a circumstance outside of the Company’s control, among other conditions for equity classification. This assessment, which requires the use of professional judgment, is conducted at the time of warrant issuance and as of each subsequent quarterly period end date while the warrants are outstanding.

  

For issued or modified warrants that meet all of the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded as a component of equity at the time of issuance. The Company determined that upon further review of the warrant agreements, the Company concluded that its warrants qualify for equity accounting treatment.

  

●	Convertible Promissory Note

 

The Company accounts for its convertible promissory notes as debt (liability) on the balance sheet based on an assessment of the embedded conversion feature (see Note 5 — Related Party Transactions) and applicable authoritative guidance in 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”). The assessment considers the derivative scope exception guidance pertaining to equity classification of contracts in an entity’s own equity.

 

●	Income taxes

 

Income taxes are determined in accordance with the provisions of ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes” (“ASC 740”). Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis.

  

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted income tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Any effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

  

ASC 740 prescribes a comprehensive model for how companies should recognize, measure, present, and disclose in their financial statements uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. Under ASC 740, tax positions must initially be recognized in the financial statements when it is more likely than not the position will be sustained upon examination by the tax authorities. The Company’s management determined that the Cayman Islands is the Company’s major tax jurisdiction. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits, if any, as income tax expense. There were no unrecognized tax benefits and no amounts accrued for interest and penalties as of September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023. 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’s tax provision is zero for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022.

  

The Company is considered to be an exempted Cayman Islands company, and is presently not subject to income taxes or income tax filing requirements in the Cayman Islands or the United States.

●	Concentration of Credit Risk

 

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash accounts in a financial institution, which, at times, may exceed the Federal Depository Insurance Coverage of $250,000. As of September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023, the Company has not experienced losses on these accounts and management believes the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such accounts.

  

●	Fair value of financial instrument

 

The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under FASB ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the balance sheet, primarily due to its short-term nature.

  

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received for sale of an asset or paid for transfer of a liability, in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. GAAP establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The Company’s financial instruments are classified as either Level 1, Level 2 or Level 3. These tiers include:

  

-

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.

 

●	Recent accounting pronouncements

 

In August 2020, the FASB issued a new standard (ASU 2020-06) to reduce the complexity of accounting for convertible debt and other equity-linked instruments. For certain convertible debt instruments with a cash conversion feature, the changes are a trade-off between simplifications in the accounting model (no separation of an “equity” component to impute a market interest rate, and simpler analysis of embedded equity features) and a potentially adverse impact to diluted earnings per share by requiring the use of the if-converted method. The new standard will also impact other financial instruments commonly issued by both public and private companies. For example, the separation model for beneficial conversion features is eliminated simplifying the analysis for issuers of convertible debt and convertible preferred stock. Also, certain specific requirements to achieve equity classification and/or qualify for the derivative scope exception for contracts indexed to an entity’s own equity are removed, enabling more freestanding instruments and embedded features to avoid mark-to-market accounting. The new standard is effective for companies that are SEC filers (except for smaller reporting companies) for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021 and interim periods within that year, and two years later for other companies. Companies can early adopt the standard at the start of a fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2020. The standard can either be adopted on a modified retrospective or a full retrospective basis. The adoption of ASU 2020-06 on July 1, 2022 did not have a material effect on the Company’s unaudited condensed financial statements.

 

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

NOTE 3 — INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING

 

On February 2, 2022, the Company consummated the Initial Public Offering of 9,200,000 Public Units (including 1,200,000 Public Units issued upon the full exercise of the over-allotment option). Each Public Unit consists of one Class A Ordinary Share, one-half of one redeemable Public Warrants, each whole Public Warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one Class A Ordinary Share at an exercise price of $11.50 per share, and one Public Right, each one Public Right entitling the holder thereof to exchange for one-tenth of one Class A Ordinary Share upon the completion of the Company’s initial Business Combination. The Public Units were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per unit, generating gross proceeds of $92,000,000 on February 2, 2022.

  

NOTE 4 — PRIVATE PLACEMENT

  

Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company completed the private sale of 424,480 Private Units, including 378,480 Private Units to the Sponsor, and 46,000 Private Units to Maxim, the representative of the several underwriters, respectively. Each Private Unit consists of one Class A Ordinary Share, one-half of one Private Warrant, and one Private Right. The Private Units were sold at a purchase price of $10.00 per Private Unit, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $4,244,800. The Private Units are identical to the Public Units sold in the Initial Public Offering, except that the holders of the Private Units have agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of the Private Units and the underlying securities (except to certain permitted transferees) until the completion of the Company’s initial Business Combination.

  

NOTE 5 — RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

  

Founder Shares

  

On August 5, 2021, the Sponsor acquired 2,300,000 Class B ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share, (“Founder Shares”) for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000.

  

As of September 30, 2023 and 2022, there were 2,300,000 Founder Shares issued and outstanding. The aggregate capital contribution was $25,000, or approximately $0.01 per share.

  

Simultaneously with the effectiveness of the registration statement and closing of the Initial Public Offering (including the full exercise of over-allotment option), the Sponsor transferred 10,000 Founder Shares to each of Messrs. Alfred “Trey” Hickey and Buhdy Sin Swee Bok at the same price originally paid by the Sponsor for such shares, pursuant to a certain securities transfer agreement (the “Securities Transfer Agreement”) dated January 31, 2022 among the Company, the transferees and the Sponsor. The transfer was considered to be part of the transferees’ compensation to become the Company’s independent directors. The transfer of the Founders Shares to the Company’s independent directors, as described above, is within the scope of FASB ASC Topic 718, “Compensation-Stock Compensation” (“ASC 718”).

 

Due to Related Parties

  

From time to time, Mr. Liang Shi, the Company’s Director, Chief Executive Officer, Secretary and Chairman, would incur travel costs to search for targets. As of September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023, due to Mr. Liang Shi amounted to $2,538 and $3,504, respectively.

  

Promissory Notes — Related Party

  

In order to meet the Company’s working capital needs following the consummation of the Initial Public Offering, the Sponsor, officers and directors or their affiliates may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds, from time to time or at any time, in whatever amount they deem reasonable in their sole discretion (the “Working Capital Loans”). Each loan would be evidenced by a promissory note. 

 

In November 2022 and in July 2023, the Company had issued a total of two unsecure promissory notes (the “Sponsor Notes”) in the total principal amount of $520,000 to the Sponsor. The proceeds of the Sponsor Notes may be drawn down from time to time until the Company consummates its initial business combination, will be used as general working capital purposes. 

 

From January 2023 to September 2023, the Company had issued a total of seven unsecured promissory notes (the “Extension Notes”) in the total principal amount of $1,548,648 to the Sponsor in connection with the extension of the Company’s timeline to compete its initial Business Combination. The proceeds of the Extension Notes was deposited into the Company’s Trust Account for the public shareholders, which enables the Company to extend the period of time it has to consummate its initial Business Combination.

NOTE 6 — SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY

 

Preference Shares — The Company is authorized to issue 10,000,000 preference shares with a par value of $0.0001 per share. As of September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023, there were no preference shares issued or outstanding.

  

Class A Ordinary Shares — The Company is authorized to issue 470,000,000 Class A Ordinary Shares with a par value of $0.0001 per share. As of September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023, there were 464,480 Class A Ordinary Shares issued and outstanding, excluding 3,837,766 shares and 6,587,231 shares, respectively, subject to possible redemption.

  

Class B Ordinary Shares — The Company is authorized to issue 20,000,000 Class B ordinary shares with a par value of $0.0001 per share. On August 5, 2021, the Company issued 2,300,000 Class B ordinary shares. Of the 2,300,000 Class B ordinary shares outstanding, an aggregate of up to 300,000 shares are subject to forfeiture to the Company by the Sponsor for no consideration to the extent that the underwriter’s over-allotment option is not exercised in full or in part, so that the initial shareholders will collectively own 20% of the Company’s issued and outstanding ordinary shares after the Initial Public Offering (assuming they do not purchase any units in the Initial Public Offering and excluding the Class A Ordinary Shares underlying the Private Units). If the Company increases or decreases the size of the Initial Public Offering, it will effect a share dividend or a share contribution back to capital or other appropriate mechanism, as applicable, with respect to Class B ordinary shares immediately prior to the consummation of the offering in such amount as to maintain the ownership of the initial shareholders at 20% of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares of the Company upon the consummation of the Initial Public Offering (assuming they do not purchase Units in the Initial Public Offering and excluding the Private Shares). As a result of the underwriters’ election to fully exercise their over-allotment option on February 2, 2022, no Class B ordinary shares are currently subject to forfeiture.

  

Rights

 

As of September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023, there were 9,200,000 Public Rights and 424,480 Private Rights outstanding. Except in cases where the Company is not the surviving company in a Business Combination, each holder of a Public Right will automatically receive one-tenth (1/10) of one Class A Ordinary Share upon consummation of a Business Combination, even if the holder of a Public Right redeemed all Class A Ordinary Shares held by him, her or it in connection with a Business Combination or an amendment to the Company’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association with respect to its pre-business combination activities. In the event the Company will not be the surviving company upon completion of the initial Business Combination, each registered holder of a right will be required to affirmatively redeem his, her or its rights in order to receive the kind and amount of securities or properties of the surviving company that the one-tenth (1/10) of one Class A Ordinary Share underlying each right is entitled to upon consummation of the Business Combination. No additional consideration will be required to be paid by a holder of Public Rights in order to receive his, her or its additional ordinary shares upon consummation of a Business Combination. The shares issuable upon exchange of the rights will be freely tradable (except to the extent held by affiliates of the Company). If the Company enters into a definitive agreement for a Business Combination in which the Company will not be the surviving entity, the definitive agreement will provide for the holders of Public Rights to receive the same per share consideration the holders of Class A Ordinary Shares will receive in the transaction on an as-converted into ordinary shares basis.

  

The Company will not issue fractional shares in connection with an exchange of Public Rights. Fractional shares will either be rounded down to the nearest whole share or otherwise addressed in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Companies Act and any other applicable. As a result, the holders of the Public Rights must hold rights in multiples of 10 in order to receive shares for all of the holders’ rights upon closing of a Business Combination. 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 Rights will not receive any of such funds with respect to their Public Rights, nor will they receive any distribution from the Company’s assets held outside of the Trust Account with respect to such Public Rights, and the Public Rights will expire worthless. Further, there are no contractual penalties for failure to deliver securities to the holders of the Public Rights upon consummation of a Business Combination. Additionally, in no event will the Company be required to net cash settle the rights. Accordingly, the rights may expire worthless.

Redeemable Warrants

  

As of September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023, there were 4,600,000 Public Warrants and 212,240 Private Warrants outstanding. Each whole redeemable warrant entitles the registered holder to purchase one Class A Ordinary Shares at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment as discussed below, at any time commencing on the later of the thirty (30) days after the completion of an initial Business Combination and one (1) year from the consummation of the Initial Public Offering. Pursuant to the warrant agreement, a warrant holder may exercise its warrants only for a whole number of shares. However, except as set forth below, no warrants will be exercisable for cash unless the Company has an effective and current registration statement covering the Class A Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants and a current prospectus relating to such Class A Ordinary Shares. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a registration statement covering the Class A Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants is not effective within 90 days from the consummation of the Company’s initial Business Combination, warrant holders may, until such time as there is an effective registration statement and during any period when the Company shall have failed to maintain an effective registration statement, exercise warrants on a cashless basis pursuant to the exemption from registration provided by Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act provided that such exemption is available. If an exemption from registration is not available, holders will not be able to exercise their warrants on a cashless basis. The warrants will expire five years from the consummation of the Initial Public Offering at 5:00 p.m., Eastern Standard Time.

  

The Company may call the warrants for redemption (excluding the private warrants), in whole and not in part, at a price of $0.01 per warrant:

  

●

at any time while the warrants are exercisable,

 

●

upon not less than 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption to each warrant holder,

  

●

if, and only if, the reported last sale price of the Class A Ordinary Shares equals or exceeds $16.50 per share (as adjusted for share dividends, share splits, share aggregation, extraordinary dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like), for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing after the warrant become exercisable and ending one the third trading day prior to the date on which notice of redemption is given to warrant holders (the “Force-Call Provision”), and

  

●

if, and only if, there is a current registration statement in effect with respect to the Class A Ordinary Shares underlying such warrants at the time of redemption and for the entire 30-days trading period referred to above and continuing each day thereafter until the date of redemption.

  

The right to exercise will be forfeited unless the warrants are exercised prior to the date specified in the notice of redemption. On and after the redemption date, a record holder of a warrant will have no further rights except to receive the redemption price for such holder’s warrant upon surrender of such warrant.

  

The redemption criteria for the Company’s warrants have been established at a price which is intended to provide warrant holders a reasonable premium to the initial exercise price and provide a sufficient differential between the then-prevailing share price and the warrant exercise price so that if the share price declines as a result of the Company’s redemption call, the redemption will not cause the share price to drop below the exercise price of the warrants.

  

If the Company call the warrants for redemption as described above, its management will have the option to require all holders that wish to exercise warrants to do so on a “cashless basis.” In such event, each holder would pay the exercise price by surrendering the whole warrants for that number of Class A Ordinary Shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the product of the number of Class A Ordinary Shares underlying the warrants, multiplied by the difference between the exercise price of the warrants and the “fair market value” (defined below) by (y) the fair market value. The “fair market value” shall mean the average reported last sale price of the Class Ordinary Shares for the 10 trading days ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which the notice of redemption is sent to the holders of warrants.

  

Whether the Company will exercise its option to require all holders to exercise their warrants on a “cashless basis” will depend on a variety of factors including the price of its Class A Ordinary Shares at the time the warrants are called for redemption, its cash needs at such time and concerns regarding dilutive share issuances.

In addition, if the Company (a) issues additional Class A Ordinary Shares or equity-linked securities for capital raising purposes in connection with the closing of its initial Business Combination at an issue price or effective issue price of less than $9.20 per share (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 Company’s initial shareholders or their affiliates, without taking into account any Class B ordinary shares issued prior to the offering and held by the initial shareholders or their affiliates, as applicable, prior to such issuance) (the “Newly Issued Price”), (b) the aggregate gross proceeds from such issuances represent more than 60% of the total equity proceeds, and interest thereon, available for the funding of its initial Business Combination on the date of the consummation of its initial Business Combination (net of redemptions), and (c) the volume weighted average trading price of the Company’s Class A Ordinary Shares during the 20 trading day period starting on the trading day prior to the date of the consummation of the Company’s initial Business Combination (such price, the “Market Value”) is below $9.20 per share, then the exercise price of the warrants will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 115% of the greater of (i) the Market Value or (ii) the Newly Issued Price, and the $16.50 per share redemption trigger price described below under “Redemption of warrants” will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 180% of the greater of (i) the Market Value or (ii) the Newly Issued Price.

  

The warrants may be exercised upon surrender of the warrant certificate on or prior to the expiration date at the offices of the warrant agent, with the exercise form on the reverse side of the warrant certificate completed and executed as indicated, accompanied by full payment of the exercise price, by certified or official bank check payable to the Company, for the number of warrants being exercised. The warrant holders do not have the rights or privileges of holders of Class A Ordinary Shares and any voting rights until they exercise their warrants and receive Class A Ordinary Shares. After the issuance of Class A Ordinary Shares upon exercise of the warrants, each holder will be entitled to one vote for each share held of record on all matters to be voted on by shareholders.

  

The Private Warrants have terms and provisions that are identical to those of the Public Warrants being sold as part of the Public Units in the Initial Public Offering except that the Private Warrants will be entitled to registration rights. The Private Warrants (including the Class A Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of the Private Warrants) will not be transferable, assignable or saleable until the completion of the Company’s initial Business Combination except to permitted transferees, subject to certain exceptions.

Registration Rights

The holders of the majority of the Founder Shares can elect to exercise these registration rights at any time commencing three months prior to the date on which these ordinary shares are to be released from escrow. The holders of a majority of the Private Units (and underlying securities) and securities issued in payment of Working Capital Loans (or underlying securities) or extension loans can elect to exercise these registration rights at any time after the Company consummates a Business Combination.

Forward-Looking Statements

 

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes forward-looking statements. We have based these forward-looking statements on our current expectations and projections about future events. These forward-looking statements are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and assumptions about us that may cause our actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may,” “should,” “could,” “would,” “expect,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “continue,” or the negative of such terms or other similar expressions. Factors that might cause or contribute to such a discrepancy include, but are not limited to, those described in our other Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) filings. References to “we”, “us”, “our” or the “Company” are to Blue World Acquisition Corporation, except where the context requires otherwise. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our condensed financial statements and related notes thereto included elsewhere in this report.

 

Overview

 

We are a blank check exempted company incorporated in the Cayman Islands on July 19, 2021 with limited liability (meaning our public shareholders have no liability, as shareholders of the Company, for the liabilities of the Company over and above the amount paid for their shares) to serve as a vehicle to effect a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more target businesses (the “Business Combination”). Our efforts to identify a prospective target business will not be limited to a particular industry or geographic location. We intend to utilize cash derived from the proceeds of our initial public offering (the “IPO”), our securities, debt or a combination of cash, securities and debt, in effecting a business combination.

 

We presently have no revenue, have had losses since inception from incurring formation and operating costs and have had no operations other than identifying and evaluating suitable acquisition transaction candidates. We have relied upon the working capital available to us following the consummation of the IPO and the Private Placement (as defined below) to fund our operations, as well as the funds loaned by the Sponsor (as defined below), our officers, directors or their affiliates.

 

On February 2, 2022, we consummated the IPO of 9,200,000 units (the “Units”), which included 1,200,000 Units issued upon the full exercise of the underwriter’s over-allotment option. Each Unit consists of one Class A Ordinary Share, $0.0001 par value per share (the “Class A Ordinary Share”), one-half of one redeemable warrant (the “Warrants”), each whole Warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one Class A Ordinary Share at an exercise price of $11.50 per share, and one right (the “Right”), each one Right entitling the holder thereof to exchange for one-tenth of one Class A Ordinary Share upon the completion of our initial Business Combination. The Units were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $92,000,000.

 

On February 2, 2022, simultaneously with the consummation of the IPO, we completed the private sale (the “Private Placement”) of 424,480 units (the “Private Units”) including 378,480 Private Units to our sponsor, Blue World Holdings Limited (the “Sponsor”), and 46,000 Private Units to Maxim Group LLC (“Maxim”), the sole underwriter of the IPO, respectively, at a purchase price of $10.00 per Private Unit, generating gross proceeds to us of $4,244,800.

 

The proceeds of $ 92,920,000 ($10.10 per Unit) in the aggregate from the IPO and the Private Placement, were placed in a trust account (the “Trust Account”) established for the benefit of our public shareholders and the underwriter of the IPO with Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company acting as trustee.

 

Our management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of IPO and the Private Placements, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be applied generally towards consummating a Business Combination.

 

 

Recent Development

 

May 2023 Special Meeting

 

We initially had until February 2, 2023 to consummate our initial Business Combination. Upon the notice of the Sponsor, we extended the period of time to consummate a Business Combination for additional three months till May 2, 2023 (the “First Extension”) and deposited $920,000 into the Trust Account in connection with this First Extension sourced from the loans provided by the Sponsor as evidenced by the Extension Note (as defined below). However, if we anticipate that we may not be able to consummate our initial Business Combination by May 2, 2023, we may, but are not obligated to, further extend the period of time to consummate a Business Combination another two times by an additional three months each time by depositing $920,000 into the Trust Account for each extension and may have until November 2, 2023 to consummate our initial Business Combination.

 

On May 2, 2023, the Company held a special meeting of shareholders (the “May 2023 Special Meeting”) at which the shareholders approved the adoption of the second amended and restated memorandum and articles of association of the Company, which provides that the Company has until May 2, 2023 to complete a Business Combination, and may elect to extend the period to consummate a Business Combination up to nine times, each by an additional one-month extension (the “Monthly Extension”), for a total of up to nine months to February 2, 2024 by depositing $0.0295 per public share into the Trust Account for each Monthly Extension. As a result of the May 2023 Special Meeting, upon the shareholders’ approval, on May 2, 2023, the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as the trustee of the Trust Account, entered into the amendment to the Investment Management Trust Agreement dated January 31, 2022. In connection with the May 2023 Special Meeting, 2,612,769 Class A Ordinary Shares were rendered for redemption and approximately $27.4 million was released from the Trust Account to pay such redeeming shareholders.

 

On May 2, 2023, the Sponsor deposited $194,324 into the Trust Account to extend the period that the Company must complete a Business Combination from May 2, 2023 to June 2, 2023. This is the first deposit for the Monthly Extension and is evidenced by a promissory note issued to the Sponsor in the amount of $194,324. On June 2, 2023, a total of $194,324 was deposited into the Trust Account for the public shareholders, which enables the Company to extend the period of time it has to consummate its initial Business Combination by one month from June 2, 2023 to July 2, 2023. The Company issued a promissory note in the amount of $194,324 to the Sponsor in connection with such Monthly Extension.

 

June 2023 Special Meeting

 

On June 30, 2023, the Company held an extraordinary general meeting (the “June 2023 Special Meeting”), where the shareholders of the Company approved the adoption of the Third Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association of Bule World, which provides that the Company has until July 2, 2023 to complete a Business Combination, and may elect to extend the period to consummate a Business Combination up to nine times, each by an additional Monthly Extension, for a total of up to nine months to April 2, 2024, by depositing $60,000 each month to the Trust Account (the “Monthly Extension Fee”). As a result of June 2023 Special Meeting, upon the shareholders’ approval, on June 30, 2023, the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as the trustee of the Trust Account entered into the amendment to the Trust Agreement. In connection with the June 2023 Special Meeting, 2,749,465 Class A Ordinary Shares were rendered for redemption, and approximately $29.3 million was released from the Trust Account to pay such redeeming shareholders.

 

Since the June 2023 Special Meeting, as of the date hereof, the Monthly Extension Fee in the amount of $60,000 had been deposited in the Trust Account each month, for a total of 5 Monthly Extensions, which enables the Company to extend the period of time it has to consummate its initial Business Combination up to December 2, 2023.

 

As of the date hereto, the Company has issued unsecured promissory notes (the “Extension Notes”) to the Sponsor for the payment of Monthly Extension Fees in the total amount of $1,608,648.

 

 

Merger Agreement

 

On August 10, 2023, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (as the same may be amended, restated or supplemented, the “Merger Agreement”) with TOYO Co., Ltd, a Cayman Islands exempted company (“PubCo”), TOYOone Limited, a Cayman Islands exempted company (“Merger Sub”), TOPTOYO INVESTMENT PTE. LTD., a Singapore private company limited by shares (“SinCo”), Vietnam Sunergy Cell Company Limited, a Vietnamese company, (the “Company”, together with PubCo, Merger Sub and SinCo, the “Group Companies”, or each individually, a “Group Company”), Vietnam Sunergy Joint Stock Company, a Vietnam joint stock company (“VSUN”), and Fuji Solar Co., Ltd, a Japanese company (“Fuji Solar”, together with VSUN, the “Shareholders”, or individually, a “Shareholder”).

 

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, (a) the Group Companies, VSUN and Fuji Solar shall consummate a series of transactions involving the Group Companies, including (A) PubCo acquiring one hundred percent (100%) of the issued and paid-up share capital of SinCo from Fuji Solar in exchange for one (1) ordinary share of PubCo, par value US$0.0001 per share (the “PubCo Ordinary Shares” and such transaction, the “Share Exchange”), and (B) SinCo acquiring one hundred percent (100%) of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company from VSUN at an aggregate consideration of no less than US$50,000,000 (the “SinCo Acquisition,” and together with the Share Exchange, the “Pre-Merger Reorganization”), as a result of which (i) SinCo shall become a wholly-owned subsidiary of PubCo, (ii) the Company shall become a wholly-owned subsidiary of SinCo; and (iii) immediately prior to the closing of the SinCo Acquisition, Fuji Solar (the “Seller”) shall hold an aggregate of 41,000,000 PubCo Ordinary Shares, representing all issued and outstanding share capital of PubCo, and (b) following the consummation of the Pre-Merger Reorganization, BWAQ shall merge with and into Merger Sub, with Merger Sub continuing as the surviving company (the “Merger”), as a result of which, among other things, all of the issued and outstanding securities of BWAQ immediately prior to the filing of the plan of merger with respect to the Merger (the “Plan of Merger”) to the Registrar of Companies of the Cayman Islands, or such later time as may be specified in the Plan of Merger (the “Merger Effective Time”) shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be cancelled, in exchange for the right of the holders thereof to receive substantially equivalent securities of PubCo, in each case, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement and in accordance with the provisions of the Companies Act (Revised) of the Cayman Islands and other applicable laws. The Merger, the Pre-Merger Reorganization and each of the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement or any of the other relevant transactional documents are collectively referred to as “Transactions.”

 

Amendment to the Underwriting Agreement

 

On October 2, 2023, the Company entered into an amendment to the underwriting agreement dated as of January 31, 2022 (the “UA Amendment”) with Maxim in connection with the Transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement.

 

Pursuant to the UA Amendment, Maxim agrees to convert the total amount of its deferred underwriting commission in the amount of $3,220,000, or 3.5% of the gross proceeds from the IPO, into 322,000 ordinary shares of the post-combination entity at $10.00 per share (the “Deferred Underwriting Shares”) immediately prior to the consummation of BWAQ’s initial Business Combination. The Company agrees to register the Deferred Underwriting Shares in the proxy statement/prospectus to be filed in connection with the initial business combination under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. If the Company fails to register such Deferred Underwriting Shares, Maxim is entitled for up to three demand registration rights and unlimited piggyback registration rights with respect to such Deferred Underwriting Shares.

 

Results of Operations 

 

We have neither engaged in any operations nor generated any operating revenues to date. Our only activities from inception through September 30, 2023 were organizational activities and those necessary to prepare for the IPO, search for a target company, and effectuate the Transactions with TOYO Solar. We do not expect to generate any operating revenues until after the completion of our initial Business Combination. We expect to generate non-operating income in the form of interest income on marketable securities held after the IPO. We expect that we will incur increased expenses as a result of being a public company (for legal, financial reporting, accounting and auditing compliance), as well as for due diligence expenses in connection with searching for, and completing, a Business Combination.

 

For the three months ended September 30, 2023, we had a net income of $400,619, which consisted of dividend earned on investment held in Trust Account and interest income of $605,903 offset by formation and operations costs of $205,284.

 

For the three months ended September 30, 2022, we had a net income of $248,325, which consisted of dividend earned on investment held in Trust Account and interest income of $419,407 offset by formation and operations costs of $171,082.

 

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of September 30, 2023, we had cash outside the Trust Account of $50,517 available for working capital needs. All remaining cash is held in the Trust Account and is generally unavailable for our use, prior to an initial Business Combination, and is restricted for use either in a Business Combination or to redeem the ordinary shares. As of September 30, 2023, none of the amount on deposit in the Trust Account was available to be withdrawn as described above.

 

As of September 30, 2023, we had cash of $50,517 and a working deficit of $2,014,193. We have incurred and expects to continue to incur significant professional costs to remain as a publicly traded company and to incur significant transaction costs in pursuit of the consummation of a Business Combination. In connection with our assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with Financial Accounting Standard Board’s Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-15, “Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern,” management has determined that these conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The management’s plan in addressing this uncertainty is through the working capital loans. In addition, if we are unable to complete a Business Combination within the combination period by December 2, 2023, unless further extended, our board of directors would proceed to commence a voluntary liquidation and thereby a formal dissolution of us. There is no assurance that our plans to consummate a Business Combination will be successful within the combination period by December 2, 2023, unless further extended. As a result, management has determined that such additional condition also raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The unaudited condensed financial statement does not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

For the three months ended September 30, 2023, net cash used in operating activities was $450,229 resulted from non-cash dividend earned on investment held in Trust Account of $605,898, increase in prepaid expenses of $91,256, decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $122,728, and decrease in due to related parties of $30,966, and offset by net income of $400,619.

 

For the three months ended September 30, 2022, net cash used in operating activities was $161,692 resulted from non-cash dividend earned on investment held in Trust Account of $419,401, increase in prepaid expenses – related party of $9,058, and decrease in due to related parties of $10,000, and offset by net income of $248,325, decrease in prepaid expenses of $14,875, and increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $13,567.

 

For the three months ended September 30, 2023, net cash provided by investing activities was $29,125,912 resulted from the withdrawals of investment held in Trust Account of $29,305,912 offset by the purchases of investment held in Trust Account of $180,000.

 

For the three months ended September 30, 2022, we did not incur any investing activities.

 

For the three months ended September 30, 2023, net cash used in financing activities was $28,625,912 resulted from the redemption of Class A Ordinary Shares of $29,305,912 offset by the proceeds from issuance of promissory notes to a related party of $180,000 and withdrawals from our Escrow Account of $500,000.

 

For the three months ended September 30, 2022, we did not incur any financing activities.

 

Promissory Notes - Related Party

 

In November 2022 and in July 2023, the Company had issued a total of two unsecure promissory notes (the “Sponsor Notes”) in the total principal amount of $520,000 to the Sponsor. The proceeds of the Sponsor Notes may be drawn down from time to time until the Company consummates its initial business combination, will be used as general working capital purposes. 

 

From January 2023 to September 2023, the Company had issued a total of seven Extension Notes in the total principal amount of $1,548,648 to the Sponsor in connection with the extension of the Company’s timeline to compete its initial Business Combination. The proceeds of the Extension Notes was deposited into the Company’s Trust Account for the public shareholders, which enables the Company to extend the period of time it has to consummate its initial Business Combination.

 

 

 

The Extension Notes together with the Sponsor Notes (collectively refer herein as “Promissory Notes”) issued to the Sponsor have the same payment and conversion term as discussed below.

  

The Promissory Notes bear no interest and is payable in full upon the earlier to occur of (i) the consummation of the Business Combination or (ii) the date of expiry of the term of the Company (the “Maturity Date”). The following shall constitute an event of default: (i) a failure to pay the principal within five business days of the Maturity Date; (ii) the commencement of a voluntary or involuntary bankruptcy action, (iii) the breach of the Company’s obligations thereunder; (iv) any cross defaults; (v) an enforcement proceedings against the Company; and (vi) any unlawfulness and invalidity in connection with the performance of the obligations thereunder, in which case the Promissory Notes may be accelerated.

  

The payee of the Promissory Notes, the Sponsor, has the right, but not the obligation, to convert the Promissory Notes, in whole or in part, respectively, into private units (the “Conversion Units”) of the Company, each consisting of one Class A Ordinary Share, one-half of one warrant, and one right to receive one-tenth (1/10) of one Class A Ordinary Share upon the consummation of a Business Combination, as described in the prospectus of the Company (File Number 333-261585), by providing the Company with written notice of the intention to convert at least two business days prior to the closing of the Business Combination. The number of Conversion Units to be received by the Sponsor in connection with such conversion shall be an amount determined by dividing (x) the sum of the outstanding principal amount payable to such payee by (y) $10.00.

  

Until consummation of the Business Combination, we will be using the funds not held in the Trust Account, and any additional funding that may be loaned to us by the Sponsor, for identifying and evaluating prospective acquisition candidates, performing business due diligence on prospective target businesses, traveling to and from the offices, plants or similar locations of prospective target businesses, reviewing corporate documents and material agreements of prospective target businesses, selecting the target business to acquire and structuring, negotiating and consummating the Business Combination.

  

If our estimates of the costs of undertaking in-depth due diligence and negotiating Business Combination are less than the actual amount necessary to do so, we may have insufficient funds available to operate our business prior to the Business Combination and will need to raise additional capital. In this event, our officers, directors or their affiliates may, but are not obligated to, loan us funds as may be required. If we consummate an initial Business Combination, we would repay such loaned amounts out of the proceeds of the Trust Account released to us upon consummation of the Business Combination, or, at the lender’s discretion, such loans may be convertible into units of the post Business Combination entity at a price of $10.00 per unit.

  

 

Moreover, we may need to obtain additional financing either to consummate our initial Business Combination or because we become obligated to redeem a significant number of our public shares upon consummation of our initial Business Combination, in which case we may issue additional securities or incur debt in connection with such Business Combination. Subject to compliance with applicable securities laws, we would only consummate such financing simultaneously with the consummation of our initial Business Combination. Following our initial Business Combination, if cash on hand is insufficient, we may need to obtain additional financing in order to meet our obligations.

  

As of September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023, the Company had borrowings of $2,052,085 and $1,872,085 under the Promissory Notes, respectively.

  

Due to Related Parties

  

From time to time, Mr. Liang Shi, the Company’s Director, Chief Executive Officer, Secretary and Chairman, would incur travel costs to search for targets. As of September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023, due to Mr. Liang Shi amounted to $2,538 and $3,504, respectively.

 

Administrative Services Agreement

  

The Company is obligated, commencing from the effective date of the IPO to pay the Sponsor, a monthly fee of $10,000 for general and administrative services. This agreement was signed by the Company and the Sponsor on January 31, 2022 and it will terminate upon completion of the Company’s Business Combination or the liquidation of the Trust Account to public shareholders. The Company has recognized operating costs under the Administrative Services Agreement in the amount of $30,000 in each of the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022. As of September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023, the Company had $30,000 and $60,000, respectively, accrued under the Administrative Services Agreement due to the Sponsor.

  

Off-Balance Sheet Financing Arraignments

  

We have no obligations, assets or liabilities that would be considered off-balance sheet arrangements as of September 30, 2023. We do not participate in transactions that create relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, often referred to as variable interest entities, which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements. We have not entered into any off-balance sheet financing arrangements, established any special purpose entities, guaranteed any debt or commitments of other entities, or purchased any non-financial assets.

 

Contractual Obligations  

  

As of September 30, 2023, we do not have any long-term debt, capital lease obligations, operating lease obligations or long-term liabilities.

  

We are obligated to pay Maxim a deferred underwriters’ discount equal to 3.5% of the gross proceeds of the IPO and the underwriter’s full exercise of the over-allotment. Pursuant to the UA Amendment, Maxim agrees to convert the total amount of its deferred underwriting commission in the amount of $3,220,000, or 3.5% of the gross proceeds from the IPO, into 322,000 Deferred Underwriting Shares immediately prior to the consummation of BWAQ’s initial Business Combination.

  

The founder shares, the Class A Ordinary Shares included in the Private Units, and any Class A Ordinary Shares that may be issued upon conversion of working capital loans (and any underlying securities) will be entitled to registration rights pursuant to a registration and shareholder rights agreement entered into in connection with the IPO. The holders of these securities are entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short form demands, that we register such securities. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to our completion of the initial Business Combination. We will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.

 

 

Critical Accounting Policies, Judgements and Estimates

  

Use of estimates

  

In preparing the unaudited condensed financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP, management makes 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 and the reported expenses during the reporting period.

  

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 statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, Actual results may differ from these estimates.

  

Investments held in Trust Account

  

At September 30, 2023, the assets held in the Trust Account were held in money market funds, which are invested in U.S. Treasury securities.

  

We classify our U.S. Treasury and equivalent securities as held-to-maturity in accordance with ASC Topic 320 “Investments — Debt and Equity Securities.” Held-to-maturity securities are those securities which we have the ability and intent to hold until maturity. Held-to-maturity treasury securities are recorded at amortized cost on the accompanying unaudited condensed balance sheet and adjusted for the amortization or accretion of premiums or discounts.

  

Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption

  

We account for our ordinary shares subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in ASC Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” Ordinary shares subject to mandatory redemption are classified as a liability instrument and are measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable ordinary shares (including ordinary 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 our control) are classified as temporary equity. At all other times, ordinary shares are classified as shareholders’ equity.

 

Warrants

  

We account for warrants as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the warrant’s specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity” (“ASC 480”), and ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging” (“ASC 815”). The assessment considers whether the warrants are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and whether the warrants meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the warrants are indexed to our own ordinary shares and whether the warrant holders could potentially require “net cash settlement” in a circumstance outside of our control, among other conditions for equity classification. This assessment, which requires the use of professional judgment, is conducted at the time of warrant issuance and as of each subsequent quarterly period end date while the warrants are outstanding.

  

For issued or modified warrants that meet all of the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded as a component of equity at the time of issuance. As our warrants meet all of the criteria for equity classification, so we will classify each warrant as its own equity.

  

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

  

The fair value of our assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under FASB ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the balance sheet, primarily due to its short-term nature.

 

 

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received for sale of an asset or paid for transfer of a liability, in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. GAAP establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). Our financial instruments are classified as either Level 1, Level 2 or Level 3. These tiers include:

 

-

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.

 

Income Taxes

 

Income taxes are determined in accordance with the provisions of ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes” (“ASC 740”). Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis.

 

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted income tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Any effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

 

ASC 740 prescribes a comprehensive model for how companies should recognize, measure, present, and disclose in their financial statements uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. Under ASC 740, tax positions must initially be recognized in the financial statements when it is more likely than not the position will be sustained upon examination by the tax authorities. Our management determined that the Cayman Islands is our major tax jurisdiction. We recognize accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits, if any, as income tax expense.

 

We are considered to be an exempted Cayman Islands company, and are presently not subject to income taxes or income tax filing requirements in the Cayman Islands or the United States.

 

Net Income (Loss) per Share

 

We have two classes of shares, which are referred to as redeemable ordinary shares and non-redeemable ordinary shares. Earnings and losses are shared pro rata between the two classes of shares.

 

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In August 2020, the FASB issued a new standard (ASU 2020-06) to reduce the complexity of accounting for convertible debt and other equity-linked instruments. For certain convertible debt instruments with a cash conversion feature, the changes are a trade-off between simplifications in the accounting model (no separation of an “equity” component to impute a market interest rate, and simpler analysis of embedded equity features) and a potentially adverse impact to diluted earnings per share by requiring the use of the if-converted method. The new standard will also impact other financial instruments commonly issued by both public and private companies. For example, the separation model for beneficial conversion features is eliminated simplifying the analysis for issuers of convertible debt and convertible preferred stock. Also, certain specific requirements to achieve equity classification and/or qualify for the derivative scope exception for contracts indexed to an entity’s own equity are removed, enabling more freestanding instruments and embedded features to avoid mark-to-market accounting. The new standard is effective for companies that are SEC filers (except for smaller reporting companies) for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021 and interim periods within that year, and two years later for other companies. Companies can early adopt the standard at the start of a fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2020. The standard can either be adopted on a modified retrospective or a full retrospective basis. The adoption of ASU 2020-06 on July 1, 2022 did not have a material effect on our unaudited condensed financial statements .

 

Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on our unaudited condensed financial statements.

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

 

The net proceeds of our IPO and Private Placement held in the Trust Account are invested in U.S. government treasury bills with a maturity of 185 days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act which invest only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations. Due to the short-term nature of these investments, we believe there will be no associated material exposure to interest rate risk.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial and accounting officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the quarter ended September 30, 2023, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial and accounting officer have concluded that during the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

 

Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial and accounting officer or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

  

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

  

There have been no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended September 30, 2023 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
