While the Company may pursue an initial Business Combination target in any business or industry, it intends to focus its search on companies in the healthcare industry.
The Company has selected December 31 as its fiscal year end.
As of September 30, 2022, the Company had not yet commenced any operations. All activity since January 21, 2021 (inception) relates to the Company’s formation, the Initial Public Offering (as defined below), and activities necessary to identify a potential target for a Business Combination. Since our Initial Public Offering, we have not generated any operating revenues, and do not expect to generate any operating revenues, until after completion of our initial Business Combination.
The registration statement for the Company’s Initial Public Offering was declared effective on July 26, 2021. On July 29, 2021 (“IPO Date”), the Company consummated the Initial Public Offering of 15,000,000 units (the “Units” and, with respect to the shares of Class A common stock included in the Units sold, the “Public Shares”), at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $150,000,000, which is described in Note 3 (the “Initial Public Offering” or the “IPO”). In connection with the IPO, the Company also granted the underwriters a
45-day
option to purchase an additional 2,250,000 Public Units at the Initial Public Offering price.
Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the sale of 455,000 Units (each, a “Private Placement Unit” and, collectively, the “Private Placement Units”) at a price of $10.00 per Private Placement Unit in a private placement to AHAC Sponsor III LLC (the “Sponsor”), generating gross proceeds of $4,550,000, which is described in Note 4. Each Private Placement Unit contains one share of Class A common stock (the “Private Placement Share”) and one fourth of one warrant (one whole warrant, a “Private Placement Warrant”).
At the IPO Date, transaction costs amounted to $3,461,151, consisting of $3,000,000 of underwriting fees and $461,151 of other offering costs. The Company has also accrued underwriting fees of $5,250,000 that will be paid only if a business combination is entered into.
At the IPO date, the Sponsor also transferred to certain investors a total of 225,000 of Founders shares (Note 4)
(“Non-Risk
Incentive Private Shares”) as a compensation for their commitment to purchase the Public Units sold in the IPO. The Company estimated the aggregate fair value of these shares to be $1,186,448, or $5.27 per share. The fair value of the
Non-Risk
Incentive Private Shares was determined to be a contribution from the Sponsor for offering costs in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 5T. These offering costs were allocated to the Units and charged to shareholder’s equity upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering.
At the IPO date, the Sponsor also transferred to certain other investors the total of 600,900 of Founders shares (“Risk Incentive Private Shares”) as compensation for their commitment to acquire at least 9.9% of the Units sold in the IPO. These Risk Incentive Private Shares are subject to forfeiture if the investors sell their Units prior to the closing of the initial Business Combination. The fair value of these Risk Incentive Private Shares of $5.27 is equal to the fair value of the
Non-Risk
Incentive Private Shares. Due to the high probability of forfeiture, the fair value of these Risk Incentive Private Shares will be recorded as a capital contribution from the Sponsor upon the closing of the initial Business Combination.
On August 3, 2021, the Underwriters partially exercised their overallotment option and purchased 444,103 additional Units for a total amount of $4,441,030 resulting from the partial over-allotment exercise. The Company also issued 8,882 Private Placement Units, generating additional $88,820 in gross proceeds. Transaction costs related to the Underwriters’ partial over-allotment exercise amounted to $92,070, consisting of $88,820 of underwriting fees and $3,250 of other offering costs. The Company has also accrued underwriting fees of $155,436 that will be paid only if a business combination is entered into.
The total issuance costs of $10,145,105 were allocated to the Class A shares subject to possible redemption and the Public Warrants based on their relative fair values with $9,905,857 to the Class A shares subject to possible redemption and $239,247 to the Public Warrants.

Following the closing of the Initial Public Offering on July 29, 2021, an amount of $154,441,030 ($10.00 per Unit) from the net proceeds of the sale of the Units in the Initial Public Offering, including the Units sold upon the exercise of the over-allotment option, and the sale of the Private Placement Units was placed in a trust account (the “Trust Account”), invested in U.S. government securities, within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a) (16) of the Investment Company Act, with a maturity of 185 days or less, or in any open-ended investment company that holds itself out as a money market fund meeting the conditions of Rule
2a-7
of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), as determined by the Company. Except for the withdrawal of interest income to pay the income and franchise taxes, the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation and subject to the requirements of law and regulation, provides that none of the funds held in the Trust Account will be released from the Trust Account until the earliest of (a) the completion of the Company’s initial Business Combination, (b) the redemption of the public shares if the Company is unable to consummate an initial Business Combination within 24 months from the closing of the Public Offering (the “Combination Period”), subject to applicable law, and (c) the redemption of the Company’s public shares properly submitted in connection with a shareholder vote to approve an amendment to the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation to modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to redeem 100% of its public shares if the Company has not consummated an initial Business Combination within the Combination Period or with respect to any other material provisions relating to shareholders’ rights or
pre-initial
Business Combination activity. The proceeds deposited in the Trust Account could become subject to the claims of the Company’s creditors, if any, which could have priority over the claims of the Company’s public shareholders.
The Company’s management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the Public Offering, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be generally applied toward consummating a Business Combination.
The Company’s Business Combination must be with one or more target businesses that together have an aggregate fair market value of at least 80% of the assets held in the Trust Account (as defined below) (excluding the amount of deferred underwriting discounts held in trust and taxes payable on the interest earned on the Trust Account) at the time of the signing an agreement to enter into a Business Combination. However, the Company will only complete an initial Business Combination if the post-business combination company owns or acquires 50% or more of the outstanding voting securities of the target or otherwise acquires a controlling interest in the target sufficient for it not to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully effect a 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 the initial Business Combination either (i) in connection with a shareholder meeting called to approve the initial Business Combination or (ii) by means of a tender offer. The decision as to whether the Company will seek shareholder approval of a proposed initial Business Combination or conduct a tender offer will be made by the Company, solely in its discretion. The shareholders will be entitled to redeem their shares at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account calculated as of two business days prior to the consummation of the initial Business Combination, including interest (net of taxes payable), divided by the number of then outstanding public shares. The amount in the Trust Account is initially anticipated to be $10.00 per public share. The per share amount the Company will distribute to investors who properly redeem their shares will not be reduced by the deferred underwriting commissions the Company will pay to the underwriters.
The shares of common stock subject to possible redemption were recorded at the 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 either immediately prior to or upon consummation of a Business Combination and, if the Company seeks shareholder approval, a majority of the issued and outstanding shares voted are voted in favor of the Business Combination.
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 not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem the public shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest (less taxes payable and up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then outstanding public shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public shareholders’ rights as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any); and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the Company’s remaining shareholders and its board of directors, liquidate and dissolve, subject in each case, to the Company’s obligations under Delaware law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. There will be no redemption rights or liquidating distributions with respect to the Company’s warrants, which will expire worthless if the Company fails to consummate an initial Business Combination within the Combination Period.
 
6

The Sponsor has agreed (i) to waive its redemption rights with respect to any Founder Shares, Private Placement Shares and public shares held by it in connection with the completion of the initial Business Combination, (ii) to waive its rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to any Founder Shares or Private Placement Shares held by it if the Company fails to complete its Business Combination within the Combination Period, although the Sponsor will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to any public shares it holds if the Company fails to complete its Business Combination within such time period, (iii) not to propose any amendment to the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation that would modify the substance or timing of its obligation to redeem 100% of the public shares if the Company does not complete its initial Business Combination within the Combination Period or with respect to any other material provisions relating to shareholders’ rights or
pre-initial
Business Combination activity, unless the Company provides its public shareholders with the opportunity to redeem their shares, and (iv) to vote any Founder Shares held by it and any public shares purchased during or after the Public Offering in favor of the Company’s initial Business Combination.
The Company’s Sponsor has agreed that it will be liable to the Company if and to the extent any claims by a vendor for services rendered or products sold to the Company, or a prospective target business with which the Company has discussed entering into a transaction agreement, reduce the amounts in the Trust Account to below the lesser of (i) $10.00 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 $10.00 per share due to reductions in the value of the trust assets, in each case less taxes payable, provided that such liability will not apply to any claims by a third party who executed a waiver of any and all rights to seek access to the Trust Account nor will it apply to any claims under the Company’s indemnity of the underwriters of the Public Offering against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act. In the event that an executed waiver is deemed to be unenforceable against a third party, the Sponsor will not be responsible to the extent of any liability for such third-party claims. However, the Company has not asked the Sponsor to reserve for such indemnification obligations, nor has it independently verified whether the Sponsor has sufficient funds to satisfy its indemnity obligations and the Company believes that the Sponsor’s only assets are securities of the Company. Therefore, the Company cannot assure you 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.
Liquidity and Going Concern
As of September 30, 2022, the Company had cash outside the Trust Account of $376,832 available for working capital needs. All remaining cash held in the Trust Account are generally unavailable for the Company’s use, prior to an initial business combination, and is restricted for use either in a Business Combination or to redeem common stock. The Company may withdraw interest income earned in the Trust Account to pay taxes. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, none of the principal amount in the Trust Account was available to be withdrawn as described above.
Through September 30, 2022, the Company’s liquidity needs were satisfied through receipt of $25,000 from the sale of the founder shares, interest income earned in the Trust account that can be applied to income and franchise taxes, and the remaining net proceeds from the sale of Private Placement Units held outside of the trust account, totaling $376,832 as of September 30, 2022. There were no withdrawals from the trust account through September 30, 2022 for payment of tax obligations.
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company had a net income (loss) of $840,819 and ($33,697), respectively, which primarily consisted of general and administrative costs.
The $376,832 held outside of the Trust Account as of September 30, 2022 may not be sufficient to allow the Company to operate for at least the next 12 months from the issuance of the financial statements, assuming that a Business Combination is not consummated during that time. The Company may need to raise additional capital through loans or additional investments from its Sponsor, stockholders, officers, directors, or third parties. The Company’s officers, directors and Sponsor 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, to meet the Company’s working capital needs. Accordingly, the Company may not be able to obtain additional financing. If the Company is unable to raise additional capital, it may be required to take additional measures to conserve liquidity, which could include, but not necessarily be limited to, curtailing operations, suspending the pursuit of a potential transaction, and reducing overhead expenses. The Company cannot provide any assurance that new financing will be available to it on commercially acceptable terms, if at all.
The Company has until July 29, 2023 to consummate the initial Business Combination. It is uncertain whether the Company will be able to consummate the proposed Business Combination by this date. If a Business Combination is not consummated by this date, then, unless that time is extended, there will be a mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution of the Company. Extension of the business
 
7

combination period would require an amendment to the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation. Amending the amended and restated certificate of incorporation will require the approval of holders of 65% of the Company’s common stock, and, in connection with this, amending the warrant agreement will require a vote of holders of at least a majority of the public warrants (which may include public warrants acquired by the Sponsor or its affiliates in this offering or thereafter in the open market). In addition, the amended and restated certificate of incorporation requires the Company to provide its public stockholders with the opportunity to redeem their public shares for cash if the Company proposes an amendment to the amended and restated certificate of incorporation (A) to modify the substance or timing of its obligation to allow redemption in connection with the initial business combination or certain amendments to the charter prior thereto or to redeem 100% of the Company’s public shares if the Company does not complete the initial business combination within 24 months from the closing of the IPO or (B) with respect to any other provision relating to stockholders’ rights or
pre-initial
business combination activity.
These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, assuming a Business Combination is not consummated. These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recovery of the recorded assets or the classification of the liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
The Company believes that the proceeds raised in the initial public offering and the funds potentially available from loans from the sponsor or any of their affiliates will be sufficient to allow the Company to meet the expenditures required for operating its business. However, if the estimate of the costs of identifying a target business, undertaking
in-depth
due diligence and negotiating a Business Combination are less than the actual amount necessary to do so, the Company may have insufficient funds available to operate its business prior to the initial Business Combination. Moreover, the Company may need to obtain additional financing either to complete the Business Combination or because the Company becomes obligated to redeem a significant number of public shares upon completion of the Business Combination, in which case the Company may issue additional securities or incur debt in connection with such Business Combination.
Note 2 — Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form
10-Q
and Article 8 of Regulation
S-X
of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“the SEC”). Certain information or footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with 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 accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2021 included on the Company’s Form
10-K
as filed with the SEC on April 15, 2022. The interim results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2022 or for any future periods.
Emerging Growth Company Status
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, (the “JOBS Act”), and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.
Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to
non-emerging
growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different
 
8

application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of the Company’s financial statements with another public company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.​​​​​​​
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Marketable Securities Held in Trust Account
At September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the assets held in the Trust Account were substantially held in U.S. Treasury Bills and U.S. Treasury Coupons. These securities are presented on the condensed balance sheet at fair value at the end of each reporting period. Earnings on these securities is included in dividend and interest income in the accompanying Statement of Operations and is automatically reinvested. The fair value for these securities is determined using quoted market prices in active markets.
Through September 30, 2022, the Company did not withdraw any of interest income from the Trust Account to pay its tax obligations.
Common Stock Subject to Possible Redemption
The Company accounts for its Class A common stock subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in ASC Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” Class A common stock subject to mandatory redemption (if any) are classified as a liability instrument and are measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable common stock (including common stock 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) are classified as temporary equity. At all other times, common stock is classified as shareholders’ equity. The Company’s common stock features certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to the occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, as of September 30, 2022, 15,444,103 shares of Class A common stock subject to possible redemption are classified in temporary equity outside of the shareholders’ equity (deficit) section of the Company’s balance sheet and were immediately accreted to redemption value at the IPO date.
Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company issues warrants to its investors and accounts for warrant instruments as either equity-classified or
liability-classified
instruments based on an assessment of the specific terms of the warrants and applicable authoritative guidance in 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 meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the warrants are indexed to the Company’s own stock and whether the holders of the warrants could potentially require “net cash settlement” in a circumstance outside of the Company’s control, among other conditions for equity classification.
The Public Warrants (see Note 3) and Private Warrants (see Note 4) were accounted for as equity as these instruments meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815.
Over-Allotment Option
The over-allotment option (see Note 7) was deemed to be a freestanding financial instrument indexed to the contingently redeemable shares and was accounted for as a liability pursuant to ASC 480.
The fair value of the overallotment liability at the IPO date of $158,275 was determined using the Black Scholes option pricing model based on the following assumptions:
 
Risk-free interest rate
     0.05
Dividend rate
     0
Volatility
     5.00
Expected life (in years)
     0.12  
 
9

On August 3, 2021, the Underwriters partially exercised their overallotment option and purchased 444,103 Units (see Note 3). The fair value of the corresponding overallotment liability partially extinguished upon exercise of $28,317 was determined using the Black Scholes option pricing model based on the following assumptions:
 
Risk-free interest rate
     0.05
Dividend rate
     0
Volatility
     5.00
Expected life (in years)
     0.10  
Upon the expiration of the unexercised overallotment options on September 9, 2021, the Company recorded a gain on the expiration of the overallotment option of $127,035.
Net Income (Loss) per Common Stock share
The Company complies with accounting and disclosure requirements of ASC Topic 260, “Earnings Per Share.” Net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of Common Stock shares outstanding during the period. Weighted average shares for the period from January 21, 2021 (inception) through September 30, 2021 were reduced for the effect of an aggregate of 562,500 Class B Common shares that were subject to forfeiture until the over-allotment option was partially exercised by the underwriters on August 3, 2021 (see Note 5), upon which date the forfeiture provision lapsed for 111,026 Class B Common shares. Subsequent to August 3, 2021, weighted average shares were reduced for the effect of an aggregate of 451,474 Class B Common shares which were ultimately forfeited upon the expiration of
the 45-day period
reserved for the exercise of over-allotment option.
The Company’s statements of operations include a presentation of net income (loss) per share subject to redemption in a manner similar to the
two-class
method of income per share. With respect to the accretion of the Class A Shares subject to possible redemption and consistent with ASC
480-10-S99-3A,
the Company deemed the fair value of the Class A Common shares subject to possible redemption to approximate the contractual redemption value and the accretion has no impact on the calculation of net income/(loss) per share.
The Company’s Public Warrants (see Note 3) and Private Warrants (see Note 4) could, potentially, be exercised or converted into common shares and then share in the earnings of the Company. However, these warrants were excluded when calculating diluted income (loss) per share because such inclusion would be anti-dilutive for the periods presented. As a result, diluted income (loss) per share is the same as basic income (loss) per share for the period presented.
A reconciliation of net income per share is as follows for the three months ended September 30, 2022:

Offering Costs
Offering costs consist of underwriting, legal, accounting and other expenses incurred through the Initial Public Offering that are directly related to the Initial Public Offering. Offering costs are allocated to the separable financial instruments issued in the Initial Public Offering based on a relative fair value basis, compared to total proceeds received. Offering costs associated with the Public Shares were charged to shareholders’ equity upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering. Offering costs amounted to $9,897,599 at July 29, 2021, which were allocated between the Class A shares subject to possible redemption and the Public Warrants and charged to shareholders’ equity upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering. Under the guidance in Staff Accounting Bulletin 107 Topic 5.A, Accounting for Expenses or Liabilities Paid by Principal Stockholder(s), the Company included in these offering costs amounts incurred by the Sponsor through the transfer of

Incentive Private Shares (see Note 4) to Anchor Investors on behalf of the Company in the amount of $1,186,448. The initial public offering costs as of the IPO date were allocated $9,664,188 and $233,411 between the Class A shares subject to possible redemption and the Public Warrants (see Note 7), respectively, based on their relative fair values at the issuance date. The Company incurred an additional $92,070 offering costs of upon the partial exercise of the overallotment option on August 3, 2021.
The total issuance costs of $10,145,105 were allocated to the Class A shares subject to possible redemption and the Public Warrants based on their relative fair values with $9,905,857 to the Class A shares subject to possible redemption and $239,247 to the Public Warrants.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurement,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the accompanying balance sheet, primarily due to their short-term nature.
Fair Value Measurements
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). 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.
In some circumstances, the inputs used to measure fair value might be categorized within different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In those instances, the fair value measurement is categorized in its entirety in the fair value hierarchy based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company held Level 1 financial instruments, which are the Company’s Marketable securities held in trust account.
The overallotment liability is measured at fair value using the Black Scholes Option Pricing Model with significant unobservable inputs. The fair value is based on the share price of the underlying shares and a number of assumptions, including expected volatility, expected life, risk-free interest rate and expected dividends. Therefore, the overallotment liability is considered to be a Level 3 financial instrument.
The table below presents the changes in Level 3 liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis during the period from January 21, 2021 (inception) through September 30, 2021:

Income Taxes
Income taxes are recorded in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”), which provides for deferred taxes using an asset and liability approach. The Company recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities and net operating and capital loss carryforwards using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. Valuation allowances are provided, if based upon the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The valuation allowance is reduced when it is determined that it is more likely than not that the deferred tax asset will be realized.
 
12

The Company accounts for uncertain tax positions in accordance with the provisions of ASC 740. When uncertain tax positions exist, the Company recognizes the tax benefit of tax positions to the extent that the benefit would more likely than not be realized assuming examination by the taxing authority. The determination as to whether the tax benefit will more likely than not be realized is based upon the technical merits of the tax position as well as consideration of the available facts and circumstances. The Company recognizes any interest and penalties accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense.
Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a concentration of credit risk consist of a cash account in a financial institution, which at times may exceed the Federal Depository Insurance Corporation coverage limit of $250,000. The Company has not experienced losses on this account and management believes the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such account.
Recently Issued 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 July 29, 2021, the Company sold 15,000,000 Units at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $150.0 million. Each unit consists of one share of Class A common stock and
one-fourth
of one redeemable warrant. Only whole warrants are exercisable. Each whole warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share of Class A common stock at a price of $11.50 per share.
Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the sale of 455,000 Private Placement Units at a price of $10.00 per Private Placement Unit in a private placement to the Sponsor, generating gross proceeds of $4,550,000, which is described further in Note 4.
On August 3, 2021, the Underwriters exercised their option to purchase 444,103 additional Units for the total amount of $4,441,030, received on August 6, 2021. Resulting from the partial over-allotment exercise, the Company also issued 8,882 Private Placement Units, generating additional $88,820 in gross proceeds.
Note 4 — Related Party Transactions
Founder Shares
On January 21, 2021, the Sponsor subscribed to purchase 3,593,750 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Founder Shares”) for an aggregate price of $25,000. On January 25, 2021, the Sponsor paid $25,000, or approximately $0.00696 per share, to cover for certain offering and formation costs in consideration for 3,593,750 Founder Shares. On March 1, 2021, the Company effected a 1:1.2 stock split of its common stock which resulted in an aggregate of 4,312,500 shares of Class B common stock outstanding. All shares and associated amounts have been retroactively restated to reflect the stock split. On August 3, 2021, the Underwriters exercised their option to purchase 444,103 additional Units out of the total 2,250,000 available under the over-allotments and the forfeiture provisions lapsed for 111,026 Founder Shares. The remaining 451,464 Founder Shares were forfeited upon the expiration of the
45-day
period reserved for the exercise of over-allotment option.
On July 27, 2021, our sponsor transferred 25,000 founder shares to each of Darlene DeRemer, Eugene Podsiadlo, and William Woodward. The awards will vest simultaneously with the closing of an initial business combination, provided the director has continuously served on the Company’s board of directors through the closing of such initial business combination.
At the IPO date, the Sponsor also transferred to certain investors a total of 225,000 of Founders shares (Note 4)
(“Non-Risk
Incentive Private Shares”) as a compensation for their commitment to purchase the Public Units sold in the IPO. The Company estimated the aggregate fair value of these shares to be $1,186,448, or $5.27 per share. The fair value of the
Non-Risk
Incentive Private Shares was determined to be a contribution from the sponsor for offering costs in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 5T. These offering costs were allocated to the Units and charged to shareholder’s equity upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering.
At the IPO date, the Sponsor also transferred to certain other investors the total of 600,900 of Founders shares (“Risk Incentive Private Shares”) as a compensation for their commitment to acquire at least 9.9% of the Units sold in the IPO. The fair value of these Risk Incentive Private Shares is equal to the fair value of the
Non-Risk
Incentive Private Shares. These Risk Incentive Private Shares are subject to forfeiture if the investors sell their Units prior to the closing of the initial Business Combination. The fair value of these Risk Incentive Private Shares is equal to the fair value of the
Non-Risk
Incentive Private Shares. Due to the high probability of forfeiture, the fair value of these Risk Incentive Private Shares will be recorded as a capital contribution from the Sponsor upon the closing of the initial Business Combination.
 
13

The Sponsor, directors and executive officers have agreed not to transfer, assign or sell (i) any of their Founder Shares until the earliest of (A) one year after the completion of the initial Business Combination and (B) subsequent to the initial Business Combination, (x) if the closing price of the Company’s shares of Class A common stock equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for share splits, share capitalizations, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any
30-trading
day period commencing at least 150 days after the initial Business Combination, or (y) the date on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, share exchange, reorganization or other similar transaction that results in all of its public shareholders having the right to exchange their common stock for cash, securities or other property, and (ii) any of their Private Placement Units, Private Placement Shares, Private Placement Warrants and Class A common stock issued upon conversion or exercise thereof until 30 days after the completion of the initial Business Combination (the
“Lock-up”).
Any permitted transferees will be subject to the same restrictions and other agreements of the Sponsor and directors and executive officers with respect to any Founder Shares, Private Placement Units, Private Placement Shares, Private Placement Warrants and Class A common stock issued upon conversion or exercise thereof.
Private Placement
Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Sponsor purchased 455,000 placement units, at a purchase price of $4,550,000, in a private placement. Each Private Placement Unit is identical to the Units sold in the Initial Public Offering except as described below. A portion of the proceeds from the Private Placement Units was added to the proceeds from the Public Offering to be 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 will be used to fund the redemption of the Public Shares (subject to the requirements of applicable law).
As a result of the partial over-allotment exercise on August 3, 2021, the Company also issued 8,882 Private Placement Units, generating additional $88,820 in gross proceeds.
The Private Placement Units (including the Private Placement Shares, the Private Placement Warrants and Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of such Private Placement Warrants) will not be transferable or salable until 30 days after the completion of our Business Combination (except, among other limited exceptions, to our officers and directors and other persons or entities affiliated with our Sponsor).
Due to Related Party
The balances of $1,303 and $2,275 as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, represent general and administrative costs paid by an affiliate of the Sponsor on behalf of the Company.
Administrative Service Fee
The Company has agreed, commencing on the date that the Company’s securities are first listed on the Nasdaq, to pay an affiliate of the Sponsor a monthly fee of an aggregate of $10,000 for office space, administrative and support services. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, administrative fees incurred and paid to the affiliate of the Sponsor totaled $30,000 and $90,000, respectively. For the three months ended September 30, 2021 and for the period from January 21, 2021 (inception) through September 30, 2021, administrative fees incurred and paid to the Sponsor totaled $21,000. Upon completion of the initial Business Combination or the Company’s liquidation, the Company will cease paying these monthly fees.
Related Party Loans
In order to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Company’s Sponsor, an affiliate of the Sponsor, or the Company’s officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds as may be required (the “Working Capital Loans”). Such Working Capital Loans would be evidenced by promissory notes. The notes would either be repaid upon consummation of a Business Combination, without interest, or, at the lender’s discretion, up to $1,500,000 of notes may be converted upon consummation of a Business Combination into warrants at a price of $1.50 per warrant. The warrants will be identical to the Private Placement Warrants. In the event that a Business Combination does not close, the Company may use a portion of proceeds held outside the Trust Account to repay the Working Capital Loans, but no proceeds held in the Trust Account would be used to repay the Working Capital Loans. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, there were no written agreements in place for the Working Capital Loans.
In conjunction with the IPO activities, on July 14, 2021 (the “Inception Date”), the Company and its Sponsor entered into the Subscription Agreements with certain investors (see Note 6).
 
14

Forward Purchase Agreement
The Company granted to the direct anchor investors an option, in their sole discretion, to subscribe to a forward purchase agreement for up to an aggregate of 60% (up to 10% per direct anchor investor) of the securities sold in one or multiple private placements to close prior to or concurrently with the closing of the initial business combination. The aggregate proceeds from the sale of any securities pursuant to these forward purchase agreements will be used for purposes related to the initial business combination. Since the issuance of the securities to the investors is contingent upon the closing of an equity financing in relation to the initial business combination, and the number of shares to be purchased by the investors is undefined, the terms of the forward purchase agreement will not create an obligation for the Company until such financing occurs.
Note 5 — Income Taxes
The Company’s effective tax rate (“ETR”) is calculated quarterly based upon current assumptions relating to the full year’s estimated operating results and various
tax-related
items. The Company’s ETR was (46.4%) and 0% for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021. The Company’s ETR was 0% for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and for the period from January 21, 2021 (inception) through September 30, 2021. The difference between the effective tax rate of 0% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, and the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% was primarily due to the ETR adjustment, utilization of net operating loss, and the change in the valuation allowance. The difference between the effective tax rate of 0% and the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and for the period from January 21, 2021 (inception) through September 30, 2021 was primarily due to recognizing a full valuation allowance on deferred tax assets.
The Company has no uncertain tax positions related to federal and state income taxes. The 2021 federal tax return for the Company remains open for examination. In the event that the Company is assessed interest or penalties at some point in the future, it will be classified in the financial statements as tax expense.
Note 6 — Commitments & Contingencies
Registration Rights
The holders of the Founder Shares, Private Placement Units, Private Placement Warrants, Class A common stock underlying the Private Placement Warrants and Private Placement Units that may be issued upon conversion of Working Capital Loans (and any shares or Class A common stock issuable upon the exercise of the Private Placement Warrants and Private Placement Units that may be issued upon conversion of Working Capital Loans) are entitled to registration rights pursuant to a registration rights agreement dated July 26, 2021. The holders of these securities are entitled to make unlimited demands that the Company registers such securities. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to the completion of the initial Business Combination. However, the registration rights agreement provides that the Company will not permit any registration statement filed under the Securities Act to become effective until termination of the applicable
lock-up
period, which occurs (i) in the case of the Founder Shares, as described in the following paragraph, and (ii) in the case of the Private Placement Warrants and the respective shares of Class A common stock underlying such warrants, 30 days after the completion of the Company’s initial Business Combination. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.
Underwriters Agreement
The Company granted the underwriters a
45-day
option from July 26, 2021, to purchase up to 2,250,000 additional Units to cover over-allotments, if any, at the Public Offering price less the underwriting discounts and commissions. On August 3, 2021, the Underwriters exercised their option to purchase 444,103 additional Units for the total amount of $4,441,030.
The underwriters received a cash underwriting discount of two percent (2.0%) of the gross proceeds of the Public Offering, or $3,000,000, paid on July 29, 2021. Additionally, in connection with the partial over-allotment exercise, the underwriters received a cash underwriting discount of two percent (2.0%) of the gross proceeds, or $88,820, paid on August 6, 2021. In addition to the cash underwriting discounts, the underwriters will be entitled to a deferred underwriting fee of three and a half percent (3.5%), or $5,405,436 of the gross proceeds of the Public Offering and the underwriters’ partial over-allotment exercise upon the completion of the Company’s initial Business Combination.
Subscription Agreements
In conjunction with the IPO activities, on July 14, 2021 (the “Inception Date”), the Company and its Sponsor entered into the Subscription Agreements with certain investors. Under these Subscription Agreements, the investors, who received the At Risk Incentive Private Shares, received the right but not the obligation to subscribe, at their sole discretion, to any equity financing associated with the Closing of the initial Business Combination subject to a maximum of 10% of such offerings’ proceeds, and the right but not the obligation to subscribe, at their sole discretion, at the same terms in the next special purpose acquisition company or other similar entity sponsored by Constellation Alpha Holdings. The investors who received the Non Risk Incentive Private Shares also received the right but not the obligation to subscribe, at their sole discretion, to any equity financing associated with the Closing of the SPAC’s initial Business
 
15

Combination subject to a maximum of 10% of such offerings’ proceeds if the Investor still holds their Public Shares at the business combination date. Since the number of shares or other instruments to be purchase by the investors is unknown, these rights to participate in future offerings do not constitute an obligation.
Risks and Uncertainties
Results of operations and the Company’s ability to complete an Initial Business Combination may be adversely affected by various factors that could cause economic uncertainty and volatility in the financial markets, many of which are beyond its control. The business could be impacted by, among other things, downturns in the financial markets or in economic conditions, inflation, increases in interest rates, the ongoing effects of the
COVID-19
pandemic, including resurgences and the emergence of new variants, and geopolitical instability, such as the military conflict in the Ukraine. The Company cannot at this time fully predict the likelihood of one or more of the above events, their duration or magnitude or the extent to which they may negatively impact our business and our ability to complete an Initial Business Combination. The unaudited condensed financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Note 7 — Shareholder’s Equity
Common Stock
— On January 25, 2021, the Company issued 3,593,750 shares of common stock, including an aggregate of up to 468,750 shares of common stock that were subject to forfeiture, to the Company by the initial shareholders for no consideration to the extent that the underwriters’ 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 common stock after the Proposed Public Offering.
On March 1, 2021, the Company amended its charter to authorize issuance of 100,000,000 Class A common stock, with a par value of $0.0001 per share, 10,000,000 Class B common stock, with a par value of $0.0001 per share, and 1,000,000 preferred stock, with a par value of $0.0001 per share, and effected a 1:1.2 stock split of its common stock which resulted in an aggregate of 4,312,500 shares of Class B common stock outstanding. All shares and per share amounts have been retroactively restated to reflect the stock split.
On July 29, 2021, the Company sold 15,000,000 Units, each unit consists of one share of Class A common stock and
one-fourth
of one redeemable warrant.
On August 3, 2021, the Underwriters exercised their option to purchase 444,103 additional Units out of the total 2,250,000 available under the over-allotments and the forfeiture term lapsed for 111,026 Founder Shares. The remaining 451,464 Founder Shares were forfeited upon the expiration of the
45-day
period reserved for the exercise of over-allotment option.
Both Class A and B shareholders vote together as a single class on all matters submitted to a vote of the Company shareholders, with each share of common stock entitling the holder to one vote.
The shares of Class B common stock will automatically convert into shares of Class A common stock at the time of the initial Business Combination on a one-for-one basis (subject to adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like), and subject to further adjustment as provided herein. In the case that additional shares of Class A common stock, or equity-linked securities, are issued or deemed issued in excess of the amounts offered in the Proposed Public Offering and related to the closing of the Business Combination, including pursuant to a specified future issuance, the ratio at which shares of Class B common stock shall convert into shares of Class A common stock will be adjusted (unless our Sponsor agrees to waive such adjustment with respect to any such issuance or deemed issuance, including a specified future issuance) so that the number of shares of Class A common stock issuable upon conversion of all shares of Class B common stock will equal, in the aggregate, on an
as-converted
basis, 20% of the sum of the total number of all shares of common stock outstanding upon completion of the Proposed Public Offering plus all shares of Class A common stock and equity-linked securities issued or deemed issued in connection with the Business Combination (after giving effect to any redemptions of shares of Class A common stock by public shareholders) (excluding any shares or equity-linked securities issued, or to be issued, to any seller in the Business Combination and any Private Placement Units issued to our Sponsor, officers or directors upon conversion of Working Capital Loans). The Sponsor may also elect to convert their shares of Class B common stock into an equal number of shares of Class A common stock, subject to adjustment as provided above, at any time.
Preferred Stock
– The Company is authorized to issue 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock, with a par value of $0.0001 per share. At September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, there were no shares of preferred stock issued or outstanding.
 
16

Warrants
– The warrants may only be exercised for a whole number of shares. The warrants included in the units sold in the Public Offering (the “Public Warrants”) will become exercisable 30 days after the completion of a Business Combination provided that the Company has an effective registration statement under the Securities Act covering the issuance of the shares of Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the Public Warrants and a current prospectus relating to them is available (or the Company permits holders to exercise their Public Warrants on a cashless basis and such cashless exercise is exempt from registration under the Securities Act). The Company has agreed that as soon as practicable, but in no event later than 15 business days after the closing of the initial Business Combination, the Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to file with the SEC and have an effective registration statement covering the issuance of the shares of Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants and to maintain a current prospectus relating to those shares of Class A common stock until the warrants expire or are redeemed. If a registration statement covering the issuance of the Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants is not effective by the 60th business day after the closing of the initial Business Combination, warrant holders may, until such time as there is an effective registration statement and during any period when the Company will have failed to maintain an effective registration statement, exercise warrants on a “cashless basis” in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act or another exemption.
The warrants have an exercise price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustments, and will expire five years after the completion of a Business Combination or earlier upon redemption or liquidation. In addition, if (x) the Company issues additional shares of Class A common stock or equity- linked securities for capital raising purposes in connection with the closing of the initial Business Combination at an issue price or effective issue price of less than $9.20 per share of Class A common stock (with such issue price or effective issue price to be determined in good faith by the board of directors and, in the case of any such issuance to the Sponsor or its affiliates, without taking into account any Founder Shares held by the Sponsor or such affiliates, as applicable, prior to such issuance), or the Newly Issued Price, (y) the aggregate gross proceeds from such issuances represent more than 60% of the total equity proceeds, and interest thereon, available for the funding of the initial Business Combination on the date of the consummation of the initial Business Combination (net of redemptions), and (z) the volume weighted average trading price of the common stock during the 20 trading day period starting on the trading day prior to the day on which the Company consummates its initial Business Combination (such price, the “Market Value”) is below $9.20 per share, the exercise price of the warrants will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 115% of the higher of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price, and the $18.00 per share redemption trigger price described below under “Redemption of warrants when the price per share of Class A common stock equals or exceeds $18.00” will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 180% of the higher of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price, respectively.
The Private Placement Warrants are identical to the Public Warrants, except that the Private Placement Warrants and the shares of Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the Private Placement Warrants will not be transferable, assignable or salable until 30 days after the completion of a Business Combination, subject to certain limited exceptions.
Redemption of warrants when the price per share of Class
 A common stock equals or exceeds $18.00
: Once the warrants become exercisable, the Company may redeem the outstanding warrants for cash:
 
   
in whole and not in part;
 
   
at a price of $0.01 per warrant;
 
   
upon a minimum of 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption; and
 
   
if, and only if, the closing price of the common stock equals or exceeds $18.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock capitalizations, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like and for certain issuances of Class A common stock and equity-linked securities for capital raising purposes in connection with the closing of the initial Business Combination) for any 20 trading days within a
30-trading
day period ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which the Company sends the notice of redemption to the warrant holders (the “Reference Value”).
The Company will not redeem the warrants unless an effective registration statement under the Securities Act covering the issuance of the shares of Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants is effective and a current prospectus relating to those shares of Class A common stock is available throughout the
30-day
redemption period.
In no event will the Company be required to net cash settle any warrant. 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 warrants will not receive any of such funds with respect to their warrants, nor will they receive any distribution from the Company’s assets held outside of the Trust Account with the respect to such warrants. Accordingly, the warrants may expire worthless.
 
17

Note 8 — Stock-based Compensation
On July 27, 2021, the Sponsor transferred 25,000 shares of Class B common stock to each of the three independent director nominees as compensation for their service on the board of directors. The awards will vest simultaneously with the closing of an initial business combination, provided the director has continuously served on the Company’s board of directors through the closing of such initial business combination. As such, the service period for these awards will start on the IPO date. As the share awards would vest only upon the consummation on a business combination, the compensation expense in relation to these grants would not be recognized until the closing of the initial business combination. As a result, the Company recorded no compensation expense for any periods through September 30, 2022. No awards were granted, exercised or cancelled during the period from January 1, 2022 and September 30, 2022.
The fair value of the Founder Shares on the grant date was approximately $5.26 per share. The valuation performed by the Company determined the fair value of the Founder Shares on the date of grant based on the fair value of the Class A shares discounted for a) the probability of a successful business combination, and b) the lack of marketability. The aggregate grant date fair value of the award related to the 75,000 unvested founder shares amounted to approximately $394,000.
Note 9 — Subsequent Events
The Company did not identify any subsequent events that require adjustment or disclosure in the financial statements.

Overview

We are a blank check company incorporated on January 21, 2021, as a Delaware corporation for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses. We have not selected any business combination target and we have not, nor has anyone on our behalf, initiated any substantive discussions, directly or indirectly, with any business combination target. We intend to effectuate our initial business combination using cash from the proceeds of our Initial Public Offering and the private placement of the Private Placement Units, our shares, debt or a combination of cash, equity and debt. We expect to incur significant costs in the pursuit of our initial Business Combination. We cannot assure you that our plans to raise capital or to complete our initial Business Combination will be successful.

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 inception have been organizational activities, activities necessary to prepare for and complete our Initial Public Offering, and activities related to identifying a potential target for an initial business combination. Since our Initial Public Offering, we have not generated any operating revenues, and do not expect to generate any operating revenues, until after completion of our initial business combination. $919,284 of dividend and interest income has been earned in the Trust Account from January 21, 2021 (inception) through September 30, 2022. We will continue to generate non-operating income in the form of dividend and interest income on cash and cash equivalents held in the Trust Account. We may withdraw interest from the Trust Account to pay taxes, if any. As a result of being a public company, we have incurred, and will continue to incur, legal, financial reporting, accounting and auditing compliance expenses, as well as due diligence expenses related to potential targets.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, we had net income and net (loss) of $840,819 and $(33,697), respectively, which consisted primarily of general and administrative expenses, dividend and interest income, and approximately $266,406 in income tax benefit for the three months ended September 30, 2022.

Liquidity, Capital Resources and Going Concern

Until the consummation of the Initial Public Offering, our only source of liquidity was an initial purchase of Class B common stock by the Sponsor and loans from our Sponsor. On July 29, 2021, we consummated the Initial Public Offering of 15,000,000 Units at a price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $150,000,000. Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, we consummated the sale of 455,000 Private Placement Units to the Sponsor at a price of $10.00 per Private Placement Unit generating gross proceeds of $4,550,000. We incurred $9,897,599 in transaction costs, including $3,000,000 of underwriting fees, $1,186,448 representing the fair value of the Founder Shares transferred from the Sponsor to certain investors as an incentive to purchase the Units, underwriting fees of $5,250,000 that will be paid only if a business combination is entered into, and $461,151 of other offering costs.

On August 3, 2021, the Underwriters exercised their option to purchase 444,103 additional Units for the total amount of $4,441,030 resulting from the partial over-allotment exercise. The Company also issued 8,882 Private Placement Units, generating additional $88,820 in gross proceeds. Transaction costs related to the Underwriters’ partial over-allotment exercise amounted to $247,506, consisting of $88,820 of underwriting fees, deferred underwriting fees of $155,436 that will be paid only if a business combination is entered into, and $3,250 of other offering costs.

Following our initial public offering, the sale of the Private Placement Units and the exercise of the over-allotment option, a total of $154,441,030 was placed in the Trust Account, and we had $1,550,000 of cash held outside of the Trust Account, after payment of costs related to the Initial Public Offering, and available for working capital purposes. As of September 30, 2022, the Company had cash outside the Trust Account of $376,832 available for working capital needs.

We intend to use substantially all of the funds held in the Trust Account, including any amounts representing interest earned on the Trust Account, excluding deferred underwriting commissions and payments made for taxes, to complete our Business Combination. We may withdraw interest from the Trust Account to pay taxes, if any. To the extent that our share capital or debt is used, in whole or in part, as consideration to complete a Business Combination, the remaining proceeds held in the Trust Account will be used as working capital to finance the operations of the target business or businesses, make other acquisitions and pursue our growth strategies.

We intend to use the funds held outside the Trust Account 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, structure, negotiate and complete a Business Combination.

In order to fund working capital deficiencies or finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, our Sponsor or an affiliate of our Sponsor or certain of our officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan us funds as may be required. If we complete a Business Combination, we may repay such loaned amounts out of the proceeds of the Trust Account released to us. In the event that a Business Combination does not close, we may use a portion of the working capital held outside the Trust Account to repay such loaned amounts, but no proceeds from our Trust Account would be used for such repayment. up to $1,500,000 of such loans may be convertible into placement units of the post-business combination entity at a price of $10.00 per placement unit at the option of the lender. The placement units would be identical to the units.

We do not have any long-term debt, capital lease obligations, operating lease obligations or long-term liabilities, other than an agreement to pay an affiliate of the Sponsor a monthly fee of $10,000 for office space, secretarial and administrative services provided to the Company. We began incurring these fees on July 26, 2021 and will continue to incur these fees monthly until the earlier of the completion of a Business Combination and the Company’s liquidation.

The underwriters are entitled to a deferred fee of $0.35 per unit, or $5,405,436.05 in the aggregate. The deferred fee will become payable to the underwriters from the amounts held in the Trust Account solely in the event that we complete a Business Combination, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement.

The $376,832 held outside of the Trust Account as of September 30, 2022 may not be sufficient to allow the Company to operate for at least the next 12 months from the issuance of the financial statements, assuming that a Business Combination is not consummated during that time. The Company may need to raise additional capital through loans or additional investments from its Sponsor, stockholders, officers, directors, or third parties. The Company’s officers, directors and Sponsor 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, to meet the Company’s working capital needs. Accordingly, the Company may not be able to obtain additional financing. If the Company is unable to raise additional capital, it may be

required to take additional measures to conserve liquidity, which could include, but not necessarily be limited to, curtailing operations, suspending the pursuit of a potential transaction, and reducing overhead expenses. The Company cannot provide any assurance that new financing will be available to it on commercially acceptable terms, if at all.

The Company has until July 29, 2023 (absent any extensions of such period by the Sponsor, pursuant to the terms described above) to consummate the initial Business Combination. It is uncertain whether the Company will be able to consummate the proposed Business Combination by this date. If a Business Combination is not consummated by this date, then, unless that time is extended (as provided above, or pursuant to a stockholder vote), there will be a mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution of the Company.

These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, assuming a Business Combination is not consummated. These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recovery of the recorded assets or the classification of the liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

The Company believes that the proceeds raised in the initial public offering and the funds potentially available from loans from the sponsor or any of their affiliates will be sufficient to allow the Company to meet the expenditures required for operating its business. However, if the estimate of the costs of identifying a target business, undertaking in-depth due diligence and negotiating a Business Combination are less than the actual amount necessary to do so, the Company may have insufficient funds available to operate its business prior to the initial Business Combination. Moreover, the Company may need to obtain additional financing either to complete the Business Combination or because the Company becomes obligated to redeem a significant number of public shares upon completion of the Business Combination, in which case the Company may issue additional securities or incur debt in connection with such Business Combination.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The Company prepares its financial statements and accompanying notes in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which require management to make estimates and assumptions about future events that affect reported amounts. Estimations are considered critical accounting estimates based on, among other things, its impact on the portrayal of the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, or liquidity, as well as the degree of difficulty, subjectivity, and complexity in its deployment. Critical accounting estimates address accounting matters that are inherently uncertain due to unknown future resolution of such matters. Management routinely discusses the development, selection, and disclosure of each critical accounting estimates. There have been no significant changes to the Company’s estimates and assumptions during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022. Reference should be made to the financial statements and related notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 for a full description of other significant accounting policies.

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 our financial statements.

JOBS Act

The Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (“JOBS Act”) contains provisions that, among other things, relax certain reporting requirements for qualifying public companies. We 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 Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (“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 our initial public offering 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.

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.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As required by Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2022. Based upon their evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that during the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.

Remediation Efforts to Address a Previously Identified Material Weakness in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

As described in Item 9.A Controls and Procedures of our 2021 Form 10-K and in Item 4 Controls and Procedures of our Form 10-Q/A for the quarter ended September 30, 2021, management identified errors in its historical financial statements related to the accounting for the Class A common stock subject to redemption, because the Class A common stock issued in the Initial Public Offering can be redeemed or become redeemable subject to the occurrence of future events considered outside of the Company’s control, the Company should have classified all of these redeemable shares in temporary equity.

Management also identified errors related to the completeness and accuracy of financial data, relating to unrecorded liabilities and deferred offering costs incurred as of July 29, 2021 (the IPO date).

In addition, errors were identified related to the overallotment liability, which was not recorded in the three months ended September 30, 2021, or in the audited balance sheet as of July 29, 2021, and was corrected in the financial statements as of December 31, 2021 included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on April 15, 2022 and in the amendment to the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2021 filed on September 13, 2022.

To address this material weakness, management has devoted, and plans to continue to devote, significant effort and resources to the remediation and improvement of its internal control over financial reporting and to enhance controls and improve internal communications within the Company and its financial reporting advisors. While we have processes to identify and appropriately apply applicable accounting requirements, we enhanced these processes to better evaluate our research and understanding of the nuances of the complex accounting standards that apply to our financial reporting requirements by utilizing the expertise of outside financial reporting advisors to support the Company in evaluating these transactions. We can offer no assurance that these initiatives will ultimately have the intended effects.

With respect to the material weakness surrounding the completeness and accuracy of liabilities, under the oversight of the audit committee, management has developed and implemented appropriate remedial measures to remediate the material weakness. To address this material weakness, we implemented additional review procedures to enable the Company to effectively search for and identify material unrecorded liabilities on a timely basis.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Other than changes that have resulted from the material weakness remediation activities noted above, there has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting, during the period covered by this report, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

To the knowledge of our management, there is no litigation currently pending or contemplated against us, any of our officers or directors in their capacity as such or against any of our property.

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 our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC on May 20, 2022 and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on April 15, 2022. 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 currently 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 our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC on May 20, 2022 and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on April 15, 2022, except as noted below. We may disclose changes to such factors or disclose additional factors from time to time in our future filings with the SEC.

General Risk Factors

The current economic downturn may lead to decreased demand for our services and otherwise harm our business and results of operations.

Our overall performance depends, in part, on worldwide economic conditions. In recent months, we have observed increased economic uncertainty in the United States and abroad. Impacts of such economic weakness include:

 

   

falling overall demand for goods and services, leading to reduced profitability;

 

   

reduced credit availability;

 

   

higher borrowing costs;

 

   

reduced liquidity;

 

   

volatility in credit, equity and foreign exchange markets; and

 

   

bankruptcies.

These developments could lead to supply chain disruption, inflation, higher interest rates, and uncertainty about business continuity, which may adversely affected our business and our results of operations. As our customers react to global economic conditions and the potential for a global recession, we may see them reduce spending on our products and take additional precautionary measures to limit or delay expenditures and preserve capital and liquidity. Reductions in spending on our solutions, delays in purchasing decisions, lack of renewals, inability to attract new customers, as well as pressure for extended billing terms or pricing discounts, would limit our ability to grow our business and negatively affect our operating results and financial condition.

Recent volatility in capital markets and lower market prices for many securities may affect our ability to access new capital through sales of shares of our common stock or issuance of indebtedness, which may harm our liquidity, limit our ability to grow our business, pursue acquisitions or improve our operating infrastructure and restrict our ability to compete in our markets.

Our operations consume substantial amounts of cash, and we intend to continue to make significant investments to support our business growth, respond to business challenges or opportunities, develop new solutions, retain or expand our current levels of personnel, improve our existing solutions, enhance our operating infrastructure, and potentially acquire complementary businesses and technologies. Our future capital requirements may be significantly different from our current estimates and will depend on many factors, including the need to:

 

   

finance unanticipated working capital requirements;

 

   

develop or enhance our technological infrastructure and our existing solutions;

 

   

pursue acquisitions or other strategic relationships; and

 

   

respond to competitive pressures.

Accordingly, we may need to pursue equity or debt financings to meet our capital needs. With uncertainty in the capital markets and other factors, such financing may not be available on terms favorable to us or at all. If we raise additional funds through further issuances of equity or convertible debt securities, our existing stockholders could suffer significant dilution, and any new equity securities we issue could have rights, preferences, and privileges superior to those of holders of our common stock. Any debt financing secured by us in the future could involve additional restrictive covenants relating to our capital-raising activities and other financial and operational matters, which may make it more difficult for us to obtain additional capital and to pursue business opportunities, including potential acquisitions. If we are unable to obtain adequate financing or financing on terms satisfactory to us, we could face significant limitations on our ability to invest in our operations and otherwise suffer harm to our business.

Recent increases in interest rates may increase our borrowing costs, and may also affect our ability to obtain working capital through borrowings such as bank credit lines and public or private sales of debt securities, which may result in lower liquidity, reduced working capital and other adverse impacts on our business.

Continued increases in interest rates will increase the cost of new indebtedness/servicing our outstanding indebtedness/refinancing our outstanding indebtedness, and could materially and adversely affect our results of operations, financial condition, liquidity and cash flows.

Rising inflation rates could negatively impact our revenues and profitability if increases in the prices of our services or a decrease in consumer spending results in lower sales. In addition, if our costs increase and we are not able to pass along these price increases to our customers, our net income would be adversely affected, and the adverse impact may be material.

Inflation rates, particularly in the United States, have increased recently to levels not seen in years. Increased inflation may result in decreased demand for our products and services, increased operating costs (including our labor costs), reduced liquidity, and limitations on our ability to access credit or otherwise raise debt and equity capital. In addition, the United States Federal Reserve has raised, and may again raise, interest rates in response to concerns about inflation. Increases in interest rates, especially if coupled with reduced government spending and volatility in financial markets, may have the effect of further increasing economic uncertainty and heightening these risks. In an inflationary environment, we may be unable to raise the sales prices of our products and services at or above the rate at which our costs increase, which could/would reduce our profit margins and have a material adverse effect on our financial results and net income. We also may experience lower than expected sales and potential adverse impacts on our competitive position if there is a decrease in consumer spending or a negative reaction to our pricing. A reduction in our revenue would be detrimental to our profitability and financial condition and could also have an adverse impact on our future growth.

Hostilities in Ukraine could have a material adverse effect, including the availability and cost of services that we rely upon for our business operations, which could have a material adverse impact on our business operations, revenues and net income.

Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, which has persisted for months, and the global response, including the imposition of sanctions by the United States and other countries, could create or exacerbate risks facing our business. Given the continuing conflict, our supply chain or customer arrangements could be disrupted due to the demise of commercial activity in impacted regions and due to the severity of sanctions on the businesses that we and our suppliers rely on. Further, state-sponsored cyberattacks could expand as part of the conflict, which could adversely affect our and our suppliers’ ability to maintain or enhance key cyber security and data protection measures.

We may be subject to the Excise Tax included in the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 in the event of a liquidation or in connection with redemptions of our common stock after December 31, 2022.

On August 16, 2022, President Biden signed into law the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (H.R. 5376) (the “IRA”) , which among other things, beginning in 2023, will impose a 1% excise tax on any domestic corporation that repurchases or buybacks public company stock after December 31, 2022 (the “Excise Tax”). The company is assessing the potential impact of the Act.

The total taxable value of shares repurchased is reduced by the fair market value of and newly issued shares during the taxable year. Because we are a Delaware corporation and our securities trade on Nasdaq, we may be deemed a “covered corporation” within the meaning of the IRA. Redemption rights are ubiquitous to nearly all SPACs. Shareholders have the ability to require the SPAC to repurchase their shares prior to the merger in what is known as a redemption right, essentially getting their money back. There are two possible scenarios in which redemption rights come into play. First, they can be exercised by the shareholders themselves because they are exiting the transaction, or second, they can be triggered because the SPAC did not find a target with which to merge. While not free from doubt, absent any further guidance from Congress, the Excise Tax may apply to any redemptions of our common stock after December 31, 2022, including redemptions in connection with an initial business combination, unless an exemption is available. Issuances of securities in connection with our initial business combination transaction (including any PIPE transaction at the time of our initial business combination) are expected to reduce the amount of the Excise Tax in connection with redemptions occurring in the same calendar year, but the number of securities redeemed may exceed the number of securities issued. Moreover, the fair market value of any stock redeemed may exceed the fair market value of any stock issued. Consequently, Excise Tax may reduce the amount of cash we have available to complete a business combination and may make a transaction with us less appealing to potential business combination targets. Further, the application of the Excise Tax in the event of a liquidation is uncertain. The Company will continue to assess the potential impact of the IR Act and the impact on SPACs.

We are subject to SPAC Rule Proposals relating to how the funds in the Trust Account currently being held.

With respect to the regulation of special purpose acquisition companies like the Company (“SPACs”), on March 30, 2022, the SEC issued proposed rules (the “SPAC Rule Proposals”) relating to, among other items, disclosures in business combination transactions involving SPACs and private operating companies; the condensed financial statement requirements applicable to transactions involving shell companies; the use of projections by SPACs in SEC filings in connection with proposed business combination transactions; the potential liability of certain participants in proposed business combination transactions; and the extent to which SPACs could become subject to regulation under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), including a proposed rule that would provide SPACs a safe harbor from treatment as an investment company if they satisfy certain conditions that limit a SPAC’s duration, asset composition, business purpose and activities.

The funds in the Trust Account have, since our IPO, been held only in U.S. government treasury obligations with a maturity of 185 days or less or in money market funds investing solely in U.S. government treasury obligations and meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act. However, to mitigate the risk of us being deemed to have been operating as an unregistered investment company (including under the subjective test of Section 3(a)(1)(A) of the Investment Company Act), we may, and likely will, on or prior to the 24-month anniversary of the effective date of the registration statement filed in connection with our IPO (the “IPO Registration Statement”), should our Company continue to exist to such date, instruct Continental, the trustee with respect to the Trust Account, to liquidate the U.S. government treasury obligations or money market funds held in the Trust Account and thereafter to hold all funds in the Trust Account in cash until the earlier of consummation of our initial business combination or liquidation. As a result, following such liquidation, we will likely receive minimal interest, if any, on the funds held in the Trust Account, which would reduce the dollar amount our public shareholders would receive upon any redemption or liquidation of the Company.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds from Registered Securities.

On July 29, 2021, we consummated our Initial Public Offering of 15,000,000 Units at a price of $10.00 per Unit, generating total gross proceeds of $150,000,000. The securities sold in the initial public offering were registered under the Securities Act on a registration statement on Form S-1 (No. 333-253876). The registration statements became effective on July 26, 2021.

Simultaneously with the consummation of the Initial Public Offering, we consummated a private placement of 455,000 Private Placement Units to our Sponsor at a price of $10.00 per Private Placement Unit, generating total proceeds of $4,550,000. Such securities were issued pursuant to the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.

On August 3, 2021, the Underwriters exercised their option to purchase 444,103 additional Units for the total amount of $4,441,030. Resulting from the partial over-allotment exercise, the Company issued 8,882 Private Placement Units, generating additional $88,820 in gross proceeds.

A total of $154,441,030, composed of the proceeds of the Initial Public Offering, including from the exercise of the over-allotment option by the Underwriters, and the sale of the Private Placement Units, including $5,405,436 of the underwriters’ deferred discount, was placed in the Trust Account.

We paid a total of $3,000,000 in underwriting discounts and commissions and $461,151 for other costs and expenses related to the Initial Public Offering. In addition, the Company also included in offering costs the fair value of $1,186,448 of Founders Shares transferred by the Sponsor to certain investors as a compensation for their commitment to purchase the Public Units sold in our initial public offering. In addition, the underwriters agreed to defer $5,250,000 in underwriting discounts and commissions. Transaction costs related to the Underwriters’ partial over-allotment exercise amounted to $92,070, consisting of $88,820 of underwriting fees and $3,250 of other offering costs. The Company has also accrued underwriting fees of $5,405,436 that will be paid only if a business combination is entered into.
