BAYVIEW ACQUISITION CORP

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

MARCH 31, 2024

(UNAUDITED)

 

NOTE 1 —ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS

 

Organizational and General

 

Bayview Acquisition Corp (the “Company”) was incorporated in the Cayman Islands on February 16, 2023. The Company was formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization, or similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities (the “Business Combination”).

 

The Company is not limited to a particular industry or sector for purposes of consummating a Business Combination. The Company is an early stage and emerging growth company and, as such, the Company is subject to all of the risks associated with early stage and emerging growth companies.

 

The Company’s sponsors are Peace Investment Holdings Limited, a British Virgin Islands company, and Bayview Holding LP, a Delaware limited partnership (the “Sponsors”). As of March 31, 2024, the Company had not commenced any operations. All activities for the period from February 16, 2023 (inception) through March 31, 2024 related to the Company’s formation and the initial public offering (“IPO”), and subsequent to the IPO, identifying a target company for an initial Business Combination. The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of an initial Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company will generate non-operating income in the form of interest or dividend income from the proceeds derived from the IPO. The Company has selected December 31 as its fiscal year end.

 

The registration statement for the Company’s IPO (the “Registration Statement”) was declared effective on December 14, 2023. Additionally, on December 14, 2023, the Company filed a registration statement adding securities to the Registration Statement. On December 19, 2023, the Company consummated the IPO of 6,000,000 units, (“Units” and, with respect to the ordinary shares included in the Units being offered, the “Public Shares”) at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $60,000,000, which is described in Note 3, and the sale of 232,500 Units (the “Private Placement Units”) at a price of $10.00 per Private Placement Unit in private placements to the Sponsors that was closed simultaneously with the IPO, generating gross proceeds of $2,325,000.

 

The Company granted the underwriter a 45-day option from the date of the IPO to purchase up to 900,000 additional Units to cover over-allotment, if any, at the IPO price less the underwriting discounts and commissions. On January 28, 2024, the underwriter did not exercise their over-allotment option and hence a total of 225,000 ordinary shares were forfeited by the Sponsors.

 

The Company will have until 9 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering (or up to 18 months, if we extend the time to complete a business combination as described in this prospectus) to consummate a Business Combination (the “Combination Period”). However, if the Company has not completed a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the Company will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem 100% of the Public Shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned and not previously released to us to pay our taxes, if any (less certain amount of interest to pay liquidation and dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then issued and outstanding Public Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish the rights of the Public Shareholders as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidating distributions, if any), and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the Company’s remaining Public Shareholders and its Board of Directors, liquidate and dissolve, subject in each case to the Company’s obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law.

 

Going Concern Consideration

 

As of March 31, 2024, the Company had cash of $331,872 and a working capital of $197,994. The Company has incurred and expects to continue to incur significant professional costs to remain as a public traded company and to incur transaction costs in pursuit of a Business Combination. In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-15, “Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern,” management believes that these conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. In addition, if the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period and such period is not extended, there will be a liquidation and subsequent dissolution. As a result, management has determined that such additional condition also raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of the uncertainty.

 

 

NOTE 2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying financial statements are presented in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. These unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 filed by the Company with the SEC on April 16, 2024.

 

Emerging Growth Company

 

The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, as amended (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

 

The preparation of the financial statement in conformity with US GAAP requires the Company’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statement.

 

Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the financial statement, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.

 

 

Cash and cash equivalents

 

The Company considers all short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. The Company had a cash and cash equivalent balance of $331,872 and $582,308 as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.

 

Investments Held in Trust Account

 

The Company’s portfolio of investments held in the trust account is comprised of investments in U.S. government securities 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 and Money Market Fund. The Company’s investments held in the trust account are classified as trading securities. Trading securities are presented on the balance sheet at fair value at the end of each reporting period. Gains and losses resulting from the change in fair value of investments held in Trust Account are included in interest earned on marketable securities held in trust account in the accompanying statements of operations. The estimated fair value of investments held in the trust account is determined using available market information. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Trust Account had balances of $60,861,367 and $60,107,055, respectively. The interests earned from the trust account totaled $754,312 for the three months ended March 31, 2024, which were held in the trust accounts as earned and therefore presented as an adjustment to the operating activities in the Statement of Cash Flows.

 

Offering Costs

 

Offering costs consist of legal, accounting, and other costs (including underwriting discounts and commissions) incurred through the balance sheet date that are directly related to the IPO and that were charged to shareholders’ equity upon the completion of the IPO on December 19, 2023.

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company follows the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes under ASC 740, “Income Taxes.” Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statements carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that included the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

 

ASC 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. There were no unrecognized tax benefits and no amounts accrued for interest and penalties as of March 31, 2024. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals, or material deviation from its position.

 

There is currently no taxation imposed on income by the Government of the Cayman Islands. In accordance with Cayman income tax regulations, income taxes are not levied on the Company. Consequently, income taxes are not reflected in the Company’s financial statements.

 

Net Income (Loss) per Ordinary Share

 

The Company complies with accounting and disclosure requirements of FASB ASC 260, Earnings Per Share. The statements of operations include a presentation of income (loss) per redeemable share and income (loss) per non-redeemable share following the two-class method of income per share. In order to determine the net income (loss) attributable to both the redeemable shares and non-redeemable shares, the Company first considered the undistributed income (loss) allocable to both the redeemable shares and non-redeemable shares and the undistributed income (loss) is calculated using the total net 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 shares. Any remeasurement of the accretion to redemption value of the common shares subject to possible redemption was considered to be dividends paid to the public shareholders. As of March 31, 2024, the Company did not have any dilutive securities and other contracts that could, potentially, be exercised or converted into ordinary shares and then share in the earnings of the Company. As a result, diluted income (loss) per share is the same as basic income (loss) per share for the period presented.

 

 

The net income (loss) per share presented in the statements of operations is based on the following:

 SCHEDULE OF NET INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE PRESENTED STATEMENTS OF OPERATIONS 

		Three months ended				For the period from February 16, 2023 (inception)

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. 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 Instruments

 

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

 

Ordinary Shares Subject to Possible Redemption

 

The Company accounts for its ordinary shares subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” Ordinary shares subject to mandatory redemption (if any) is classified as a liability instrument and is measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable ordinary shares (including ordinary shares that features 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) is classified as temporary equity. At all other times, ordinary shares are classified as shareholders’ equity. The Company’s ordinary shares features certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, 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 sheet. The Company recognizes changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and adjusts the carrying value of redeemable ordinary shares to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Increases or decreases in the carrying amount of redeemable ordinary shares are affected by charges against additional paid in capital and accumulated deficit.

 

At March 31, 2024, the ordinary shares subject to possible redemption reflected in the balance sheet are reconciled in the following table:

 

SCHEDULE OF ORDINARY SHARES SUBJECT TO POSSIBLE REDEMPTION REFLECTED IN THE BALANCE SHEET

Public offering proceeds		$	60,000,000
Less:
Proceeds allocated to Public Rights			(2,460,000	)
Allocation of offering costs related to redeemable shares			(4,163,327	)
Plus:

Ordinary shares subject to possible redemption as of December 31, 2023		$	60,107,055
Plus:
Subsequent measurement of ordinary shares subject to possible redemption (income earned on trust account)			754,312
Ordinary shares subject to possible redemption as of March 31, 2024			60,861,367

 

Recent Accounting Standards

 

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

 

NOTE 3 — INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING

 

On December 19, 2023, the Company sold 6,000,000 Units at a price of $10.00 per Unit. Each Unit consists of one ordinary share and one right to receive one-tenth (1/10) of one ordinary share upon the consummation of the Company’s initial Business Combination. Ten Public Rights will entitle the holder to one ordinary share (see Note 7). The Company will not issue fractional shares and only whole shares will trade, so unless a holder purchased units in multiples of tens, such holder will not be able to receive or trade the fractional shares underlying the rights.

 

NOTE 4 — PRIVATE PLACEMENTS

 

Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, the Company consummated the private sale of 232,500 Private Placement Units at a price of $10.00 per Private Placement Unit, generating gross proceeds of $2,325,000. Each Private Placement Unit consists of one ordinary share and one right to receive one-tenth (1/10) of one ordinary share upon the consummation of the Company’s initial Business Combination. The proceeds from the sale of the Private Placement Units were added to the net proceeds from the IPO held in the Trust Account. If the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the proceeds from the sale of the Private Placement Units held in the Trust Account will be used to fund the redemption of the Public Shares (subject to the requirements of applicable law). The Private Placement Units (including the underlying securities) will not be transferable, assignable, or salable until the completion of a Business Combination, subject to certain exceptions.

 

 

NOTE 5 — RELATED PARTIES

 

Founder Shares

 

On February 23, 2023, our sponsor, Bayview Holding LP, acquired 1,437,500 founder shares for an aggregate price of $25,000. 963,125 founder shares were transferred to our sponsor Peace Investment Holdings Limited on March 14, 2023.

 

On December 14, 2023, the Company issued 287,500 founder shares for a consideration of $100, resulting in Bayview Holding LP holding a total of 569,250 founder shares and Peace Investment Holdings Limited holding a total of 1,155,750 founder shares. The payment of $100 was received on December 27, 2023. The issuance was considered as a nominal issuance, in substance a recapitalization transaction, which was recorded and presented retroactively.

 

On January 28, 2024, a total of 225,000 ordinary shares were forfeited by the Sponsors subsequent to the IPO as the underwriter’s over-allotment option was not exercised.

 

Promissory Note — Related Party

 

On February 23, 2023, the Sponsors issued an unsecured promissory note to the Company (the “Promissory Note”), pursuant to which the Company may borrow up to an aggregate principal amount of $300,000. The Promissory Note was non-interest bearing and payable on the earlier of (i) December 31, 2023, or (ii) the consummation of the IPO. On the date of closing of the IPO, no amounts were outstanding under the Promissory Note and the Promissory Note then expired upon the consummation of the IPO.

 

Due to Related Party

 

The Sponsors paid certain formation, operating or deferred offering costs on behalf of the Company. These amounts were due on demand and non-interest bearing, which was fully repaid upon closing of the IPO on December 19, 2023. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, amount due to related party was 0 and $10,000 for the administration service fee, respectively.

 

 

NOTE 6 — COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

Registration Rights

 

The holders of the Founder Shares, Private Placement Units, securities underlying the unit purchase option (“UPO”), and Units that may be issued upon conversion of working capital loans (and all underlying securities) will be entitled to registration rights pursuant to a registration rights agreement requiring the Company to register such securities for resale. Subject to certain limitations set forth in such agreement, the holders of these securities will be entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short form registration demands, that the Company register such securities. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to completion of a Business Combination and rights to require the Company to register for resale such securities pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act. However, the registration rights agreement provides that the Company will not be required to effect or permit any registration or cause any registration statement to become effective until the securities covered thereby are released from their lock-up restrictions. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.

 

Underwriting Agreement

 

The Company granted the underwriter a 45-day option from the date of IPO to purchase up to 900,000 additional Units to cover over-allotment, at the IPO price less the underwriting discounts and commissions. On January 28, 2024, the underwriter did not exercise their over-allotment option and hence a total of 225,000 ordinary shares were forfeited by the Sponsors.

 

The underwriter was entitled to a cash underwriting discounts of $0.20 per Unit, or $1,200,000 in the aggregate (or $1,380,000 in the aggregate if the underwriter’s over-allotment option is exercised in full), payable upon the closing of the IPO. The cash underwriting discount of $1,200,000 was paid on December 19, 2023.

 

The underwriter will be entitled to a deferred commission of $0.35 per Unit, or $2,100,000 in the aggregate. The deferred commission will be paid to the underwriters from the amounts held in the escrow trust account solely in the event that the Company completes a business combination, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement. The deferred underwriting commission was reported as non-current liability on the balance sheet dated March 31, 2024.

 

Unit Purchase Option

 

We have agreed to sell to Chardan and/or its designees, for $100, an option to purchase a total of 540,000 units exercisable, in whole or in part, at $11.50 per unit (or 115% of the volume weighted average price of the ordinary shares during the 20 trading day period starting on the trading day immediately prior to consummation of an initial Business Combination), commencing on the consummation of our initial Business Combination, and expires five years from the effective date of this offering. The option and the 540,000 units, as well as the 540,000 Ordinary Shares and the rights to purchase 54,000 Ordinary Shares upon the completion of an initial business combination, have been deemed compensation by FINRA and are therefore subject to a lock-up for a period of 180 days immediately following the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part or the commencement of sales in this offering pursuant to Rule 5110(e)(1) of FINRA’s Rules, during which time the option may not be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated, or be subject of any hedging, short sale, derivative or put or call transaction that would result in the economic disposition of the securities, except as permitted under FINRA Rule 5110(e)(2).

 

Business Combination Transaction Costs

 

The Company has engaged several service providers specifically for the potential business combination. Per the agreed terms with the potential target company, the potential target company will be responsible for the expenses incurred in connection with the business combination. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, $170,000 of business combination related cost has been incurred. As of March 31, 2024, the receivable from the potential target company and accrued to service providers was $170,000.

 

NOTE 7 — SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY

 

Preferred Shares — The Company is authorized to issue 2,000,000 preferred shares with a par value of $0.0001 per share with such designations, voting and other rights and preferences as may be determined from time to time by the Company’s board of directors. As of March 31, 2024, there were no preferred shares issued or outstanding.

 

Ordinary Shares — The Company is authorized to issue 200,000,000 ordinary shares with a par value of $0.0001 per share. Holders of ordinary shares are entitled to one vote for each share.

 

On February 23, 2023, our sponsor, Bayview Holding LP, acquired 1,437,500 founder shares for an aggregate price of $25,000. 963,125 founder shares were transferred to our sponsor Peace Investment Holdings Limited on March 14, 2023.

 

 

On December 14, 2023, the Company issued 287,500 founder shares for a consideration of $100, resulting in Bayview Holding LP holding a total of 569,250 founder shares and Peace Investment Holdings Limited holding a total of 1,155,750 founder shares. The payment of $100 was received on December 27, 2023. The issuance was considered as a nominal issuance, in substance a recapitalization transaction, which was recorded and presented retroactively. On January 28, 2024, a total of 225,000 ordinary shares were forfeited by the Sponsors as the underwriters did not exercise their over-allotment option.

 

Considered the nominal issuance, there was 1,725,00 ordinary shares issued and outstanding and no 6,000,000 public ordinary shares subject to redemption as of March 31, 2023. A total of 225,000 ordinary shares held by the Sponsors were subject to forfeiture as of March 31, 2023.

 

As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, there were 1,732,500 and 1,957,500 ordinary shares issued and outstanding, respectively, excluding the 6,000,000 ordinary shares subject to possible redemption, which are presented as temporary equity.

 

Rights — Except in cases where the Company is not the surviving company in a business combination, each holder of a right will automatically receive one-tenth (1/10) of one ordinary share upon consummation of the initial Business Combination. The Company will not issue fractional shares in connection with an exchange of rights. Fractional shares will either be rounded down to the nearest whole share or otherwise addressed in accordance with the applicable provisions of Cayman law. In the event the Company is not the surviving company upon completion of the initial Business Combination, each holder of a right will be required to affirmatively convert his, her or its rights in order to receive the one-tenth (1/10) of one ordinary share underlying each right upon consummation of the business combination. If the Company is unable to complete the initial Business Combination within the required time period and the Company will redeem the public shares for the funds held in the trust account, holders of rights will not receive any of such funds for their rights and the rights will expire worthless.

 

NOTE 8 — Fair Value Measurements

 

The fair value of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities reflects management’s estimate of amounts that the Company would have received in connection with the sale of the assets or paid in connection with the transfer of the liabilities in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In connection with measuring the fair value of its assets and liabilities, the Company seeks to maximize the use of observable inputs (market data obtained from independent sources) and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs (internal assumptions about how market participants would price assets and liabilities). The following fair value hierarchy is used to classify assets and liabilities based on the observable inputs and unobservable inputs used in order to value the assets and liabilities:

 

Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. An active market for an asset or liability is a market in which transactions for the asset or liability occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.

 

Level 2: Observable inputs other than Level 1 inputs. Examples of Level 2 inputs include quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities and quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.

 

Level 3: Unobservable inputs based on our assessment of the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

 

The following tables present information about the Company’s assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 and indicate the fair value hierarchy of the valuation inputs the Company utilized to determine such fair value.

NOTE 9 — SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

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

 

 

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

References to the “Company,” “Bayview,” “our,” “us” or “we” refer to Bayview Acquisition Corp. The following discussion and analysis of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the unaudited interim financial statements and the notes thereto contained elsewhere in this report. As well as the Company’s 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with the SEC on April 16, 2023. Certain information contained in the discussion and analysis set forth below includes forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties.

 

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

 

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. 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 U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) filings.

 

Overview

 

We are a blank check company incorporated on February 16, 2023, as a Cayman Islands exempted company for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization, or similar business combination with one or more businesses, which we refer to throughout the Registration Statement as our initial business combination. We have generated no revenues to date, and we do not expect that we will generate operating revenues at the earliest until we consummate our initial business combination. We have not selected any specific business combination target and we have not, nor has anyone on our behalf, engaged in any substantive discussions, directly or indirectly, with any business combination target with respect to an initial business combination with us.

 

Results of Operations and Known Trends or Future Events

 

We have neither engaged in any operations nor generated any revenues to date. Our only activities since February 16, 2023 (inception) to March 31, 2024, have been organizational activities and those necessary to prepare for the Initial Public Offering (the “IPO”) described below and identifying a target company for initial Business Combination.. Following our IPO, we would not generate any operating revenues until the completion of our initial business combination. We would generate non-operating income in the form of interest income after the IPO. We expect to incur increased expenses as a result of being a public company (for legal, financial reporting, accounting and auditing compliance), as well as for due diligence expenses.

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2024, we had a net income of $595,376, which consists of income earned on investment held in Trust Account of $754,312 offset by loss of $158,936 derived from formation and operating costs.

 

For the period from February 16, 2023 (inception) through March 31, 2023, we had a net loss of $3,105, which consists of loss of $3,105 derived from formation and operating costs.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

On December 19, 2023, we consummated our IPO of 6,000,000 Units, at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $60,000,000. Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, we consummated the sale of 232,500 Private Placement Units at a price of $10.00 per Private Placement Unit, generating total gross proceeds of $2,325,000. Following the closing of the IPO, an amount of $60,000,000 from the net proceeds of the sale of the Units in the IPO and the Private Placement was held in a trust account. The funds held in the trust account may be invested in U.S. government securities with a maturity of 185 days or less or in any open-ended investment company that holds itself out as a money market fund selected by us.

 

 

We granted the underwriter a 45-day option to purchase up to an additional 900,000 Units at the IPO price to cover over-allotment, if any. On January 28, 2023, a total of 225,000 ordinary shares were forfeited by the Sponsors since the underwriter did not exercise their over-allotment option.

 

As of March 31, 2024, our cash and cash equivalent balance was $331,872. We will use these funds primarily to identify and evaluate target businesses, perform business due diligence on prospective target businesses, travel to and from the offices, plants or similar locations of prospective target businesses or their representatives or owners, review corporate documents and material agreements of prospective target businesses, and structure, negotiate and complete a business combination.

 

We expect our primary liquidity requirements during that period to include approximately $200,000 in legal, accounting, due diligence and other fees in connection with the business combination; $100,000 in legal and accounting related to regulatory reporting obligations, $120,000 for office space, administrative and support services, $55,000 in NASDAQ continued listing fees and $100,000 for miscellaneous expenses, including director and officer’s liability insurance, general corporate purposes, liquidation obligations and reserves.

 

As indicated in the accompanying financial statements, as of March 31, 2024, we had a working capital of $197,994. Further, we have incurred and expect to continue to incur significant costs in pursuit of our financing and acquisition plans.

 

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

 

The net proceeds of the IPO and the sale of the Private Placement Units held in the trust account will be 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.

 

Related Party Transactions

 

Please refer to Financial Statements Note 5 – Related Parties.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements; Commitments and Contractual Obligations; Quarterly Results

 

As of March 31, 2024, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as defined in Item 303(a)(4)(ii) of Regulation S-K and did not have any commitments or contractual obligations. No unaudited quarterly operating data is included in the Registration Statement, as we have conducted no operations to date.

 

JOBS Act

 

On April 5, 2012, the JOBS Act was signed into law. The JOBS Act contains provisions that, among other things, relax certain reporting requirements for qualifying public companies. We will qualify as an “emerging growth company” and under the JOBS Act will be allowed to comply with new or revised accounting pronouncements based on the effective date for private (not publicly traded) companies. We are electing to delay the adoption of new or revised accounting standards, and as a result, we may not comply with new or revised accounting standards on the relevant dates on which adoption of such standards is required for non-emerging growth companies. As a result, our financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with new or revised accounting pronouncements as of public company effective dates.

 

Additionally, we are in the process of evaluating the benefits of relying on the other reduced reporting requirements provided by the JOBS Act. Subject to certain conditions set forth in the JOBS Act, if, as an “emerging growth company”, we choose to rely on such exemptions we may not be required to, among other things, (i) provide an auditor’s attestation report on our system of internal controls over financial reporting pursuant to Section 404, (ii) provide all of the compensation disclosure that may be required of non-emerging growth public companies under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, (iii) comply with any requirement that may be adopted by the PCAOB regarding mandatory audit firm rotation or a supplement to the auditor’s report providing additional information about the audit and the financial statements (auditor discussion and analysis), and (iv) disclose certain executive compensation related items such as the correlation between executive compensation and performance and comparisons of the CEO’s compensation to median employee compensation. These exemptions will apply for a period of five years following the completion of the IPO or until we are no longer an “emerging growth company,” whichever is earlier.

 

 

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

 

We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and are not required to provide the information otherwise required under this item.

 

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our management evaluated, with the participation of our current chief executive officer and chief financial officer (our “Certifying Officers”), the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2024, pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) under the Exchange Act. Based upon that evaluation, our Certifying Officers concluded that, as of March 31, 2024, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

 

We do not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all errors and all instances of fraud. Disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met. Further, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all disclosure controls and procedures, no evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures can provide absolute assurance that we have detected all our control deficiencies and instances of fraud, if any. The design of disclosure controls and procedures also is based partly on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.

 

Management’s Report on Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting

 

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as that term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) and for our assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting. Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed under the supervision of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, and effected by our Board, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of the financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that: (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

 

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

 

Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has conducted an assessment regarding the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2024, based on the framework established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on our assessment under the criteria described above, management has concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of March 31, 2024, solely due to the material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting related to the Company’s lack of qualified SEC reporting professional. As a result, we performed additional analysis as deemed necessary to ensure that our financial statements were prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Accordingly, management believes that the financial statements included in this Form 10-Q present fairly, in all material respects, our financial position, result of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. Management intends to continue implement remediation steps to improve our disclosure controls and procedures and our internal control over financial reporting. Specifically, we intend to expand and improve our review process for complex securities and related accounting standards. We have improved this process by enhancing access to accounting literature, identification of third-party professionals with whom to consult regarding complex accounting applications and consideration of additional staff with the requisite experience and training to supplement existing accounting professionals.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

 

Factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those in this Quarterly Report are any of the risks described in (i) our final prospectus for our Initial Public Offering filed with the SEC on December 19, 2023, and (ii) our annual report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on April 16, 2024. Any of these factors could result in a significant or material adverse effect on our results of operations or financial condition. Additional risk factors not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also impair our business or results of operations. As of the date of this Quarterly Report, there have been no material changes to the risk factors disclosed in (i) our final prospectus for our Initial Public Offering filed with the SEC on December 19, 2023 or (ii) our annual report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on April 16, 2024, except we may disclose changes to such factors or disclose additional factors from time to time in our future filings with the SEC.

 

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

 

Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities

 

On February 23, 2023, our sponsor, Bayview Holding LP acquired 1,437,500 founder shares for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000, of which Bayview Holding LP owns 474,375 ordinary shares and Peace Investment Holdings Limited owns 963,125 ordinary shares. On December 14, 2023, the Company issued an additional 287,500 founder shares for consideration of $100, resulting in Bayview Holding LP holding a total of 569,250 founder shares and Peace Investment Holdings Limited holding a total of 1,155,750 founder shares as of the date of the Registration Statement. On January 28, 2024, a total of 225,000 founder shares were forfeited by the Sponsors as the underwriters did not exercise their over-allotment option.

 

Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, pursuant to a Private Placement Unit Purchase Agreement, the Company completed the private sale of 232,500 Private Placement Units to the Sponsors at a purchase price of $10.00 per Private Placement Unit generating gross proceeds to the Company of $2,325,000. The Private Placement Units are identical to the Units sold in the IPO. No underwriting discounts or commissions were paid with respect to such sale. The issuance of the Private Placement Units was made pursuant to the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

 

Use of Proceeds

 

On December 19, 2023, the Company consummated the initial public offering of 6,000,000 Units (the “Units” and, with respect to the Ordinary shares included in the Units sold, the “Public Shares”), at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $60,000,000.

 

Simultaneously with the closing of the initial public offering, we consummated the sale of 232,500 Private Placement Units at a price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $2,325,000.

 

On February 23, 2023, we issued an unsecured promissory note to our Sponsors (the “Promissory Note”), pursuant to which we received proceeds of $300,000 to cover expenses related to the initial public offering. The Promissory Note was non-interest bearing and payable on the earlier of (i) December 31, 2023, or (ii) the consummation of the IPO. As of December 19, 2023, there were no amounts outstanding under the Promissory Note and the Promissory Note then expired.

 

Transaction costs related to the issuances described above amounted to $4,341,321, consisting of $1,200,000 of cash underwriting fees, $2,100,000 of deferred underwriting fees and $1,041,321 of other offering costs. After deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses, the total net proceeds from the initial public offering and the sale of the Private Placement Units $60,000,000 (or $10.00 per share sold in the initial public offering) was placed in the Trust Account.
