NOTE 1 — DESCRIPTION
OF ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS
Colombier
Acquisition Corp. II (the “Company”) was incorporated in the Cayman Islands on September 27, 2023. The Company was incorporated
for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination
with one or more businesses or entities (the “Business Combination”). The Company is not limited to a particular industry
or geographic region for purposes of consummating a Business Combination. The Company is an early stage and emerging growth company and,
as such, the Company is subject to all of the risks associated with early stage and emerging growth companies.
As
of September 30, 2024, the Company had not commenced operations. All activity for the period from September 27, 2023 (inception) through
September 30, 2024 relates to (i) the Company’s formation and the Company’s initial public offering consummated on November
24, 2023 (the “Initial Public Offering” or “IPO”), which is described below, and (ii) subsequent to the Initial
Public Offering, identifying a target company for a Business Combination. The Company will not generate any operating revenues prior
to the completion of the Business Combination, at the earliest, and will generate non-operating income in the form of interest income
on permitted investments from the proceeds derived from the Initial Public Offering. The Company has selected December 31 as its fiscal
year end.
The
registration statement on Form S-1 (File Nos. 333-274902 and 333-275674) for the Company’s Initial Public Offering was declared
effective on November 20, 2023 (the “IPO Registration Statement”). On November 24, 2023, the Company consummated the Initial
Public Offering of 17,000,000 units (the “Units” and, with respect to the shares of the Company’s Class A ordinary
shares, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class A Ordinary Shares”), included in the Units, the “Public Shares”),
which included the partial exercise by the underwriters of their over-allotment option in the amount of 2,000,000 Units, at $10.00 per
Unit, generating gross proceeds of $170,000,000 (see Note 3). Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company
consummated the private sale (the “Private Placement”) of 5,000,000 Private Placement Warrants (the “Private Placement
Warrants”) to Colombier Sponsor II LLC (the “Sponsor”) at a price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant, or $5,000,000
in the aggregate (see Note 4). Each Unit consists of one Public Share and one-third of one redeemable warrant (each a “Public Warrant,”
and together with the Private Placement Warrants, the “Warrants”). Each whole Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one
Class A Ordinary Share at a price of $11.50 per share.
Transaction
costs amounted to $9,002,207 consisting of $2,550,000 of cash underwriting fee, $5,950,000 of deferred underwriting fee (see additional
discussion in Note 6), and $502,207 of other offering costs.
The
Company’s management (“Management”) has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds
of the Initial Public Offering and the Private Placement, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be applied generally
toward consummating a Business Combination. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to complete a Business Combination successfully.
The Company must complete a Business Combination with one or more target businesses that together have an aggregate fair market value
of at least 80% of the value of the Trust Account (as defined below) (excluding the deferred underwriting commissions and taxes paid
or payable on income earned on the Trust Account) at the time of execution of the definitive agreement for such Business Combination.
The Company will only complete a Business Combination if the post-transaction company owns or acquires 50% or more of the outstanding
voting securities of the target or otherwise acquires a controlling interest in the target sufficient for it not to be required to register
as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”).
Following
the closing of the Initial Public Offering, on November 24, 2023, an amount of $170,000,000 ($10.00 per Unit) from the net proceeds of
the sale of the Units in the Initial Public Offering and the Private Placement was placed in a trust account (the “Trust Account”),
located in the United States and invested in U.S. Treasury Department (“Treasury”) obligations with a maturity of 185 days
or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act, which invest only in direct
Treasury obligations, and (no later than 24 months after the closing of the Initial Public Offering) will be held as cash or cash items,
including in a demand deposit account at a bank, until the earlier of: (i) the completion of a Business Combination and (ii) the liquidation
of the funds held in the Trust Account, as described below.

TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The
Company will provide its holders of the outstanding Public Shares (the “Public Shareholders”) with the opportunity to redeem
all or a portion of their Public Shares upon the completion of a Business Combination either (i) in connection with a shareholder meeting
called to approve the Business Combination or (ii) by means of a tender offer. The decision as to whether the Company will seek shareholder
approval of a Business Combination or conduct a tender offer will be made by the Company, solely in its discretion. The Public Shareholders
will be entitled to redeem their Public Shares for a pro rata portion of the amount then in the Trust Account ($10.25 per Public Share,
as of September 30, 2024, plus any pro rata interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the
Company to pay its tax obligations, in addition to any Permitted Withdrawals (as defined below). There will be no redemption rights upon
the completion of a Business Combination with respect to the Warrants. The Public Shares subject to redemption were recorded at redemption
value and classified as temporary equity upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering in accordance with the Financial Accounting
Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities
from Equity” (“ASC 480”).
The
Company will proceed with a Business Combination only if the Company has net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001 either immediately
prior to or upon consummation of such a Business Combination and, if the Company seeks shareholder approval, a majority of the shares
voted are voted in favor of the Business Combination. If a shareholder vote is not required by law and the Company does not decide to
hold a shareholder vote for business or other reasons, the Company will, pursuant to its amended and restated memorandum and articles
of association (the “Amended and Restated Memorandum”), conduct the redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules of the
U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and file tender offer documents with the SEC prior to completing a Business
Combination. If, however, shareholder approval of the transaction is required by law, or the Company decides to obtain shareholder approval
for business or other reasons, the Company will offer to redeem shares in conjunction with a proxy solicitation pursuant to the proxy
rules and not pursuant to the tender offer rules. If the Company seeks shareholder approval in connection with a Business Combination,
the Sponsor has agreed to vote its Founder Shares (as defined in Note 5) and any Public Shares purchased during or after the Initial
Public Offering in favor of approving a Business Combination. Additionally, each Public Shareholder may elect to redeem their Public
Shares irrespective of whether they vote for or against the proposed transaction or do not vote at all.
Notwithstanding
the above, if the Company seeks shareholder approval of a Business Combination and the Company does not conduct redemptions pursuant
to the tender offer rules, the Amended and Restated Memorandum provides that a Public Shareholder, together with any affiliate of such
shareholder or any other person with whom such shareholder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined under Section
13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), will be restricted from redeeming its shares
with respect to more than an aggregate of 15% or more of the Public Shares, without the prior consent of the Company.
The
Sponsor has agreed to waive redemption rights with respect to any Founder Shares and any Public Shares it may acquire during or after
the Initial Public Offering in connection with the completion of the Business Combination.
The
Company has until November 24, 2025 (or February 24, 2026 if the Company has executed a letter of intent, agreement in principle or definitive
agreement for an initial Business Combination within 24 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering), or until such earlier
liquidation date as the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”) may approve, to complete a Business Combination
(the “Combination Period”). The Company may also hold a shareholder vote at any time to amend the Amended and Restated Memorandum
to modify the Combination Period. The Company will provide the Public Shareholders with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of
their Public Shares upon the completion of the initial Business Combination at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate
amount then on deposit in the Trust Account as of two business days prior to the consummation of our initial Business Combination, including
interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account (net of amounts withdrawn to fund the Company’s working capital requirements,
subject to an annual limit of $1,000,000, and to pay its taxes (“Permitted Withdrawals”), divided by the number of then outstanding
Public Shares, subject to the limitations and on the conditions described herein.
On
April 1, 2024, the Company withdrew $1,000,000 from the Trust Account as a Permitted Withdrawal for working capital purposes.
The
underwriters of the Initial Public Offering have agreed to waive their rights to their deferred underwriting commission held in the Trust
Account in the event the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period and, in such event, such amounts
will be included with the other funds held in the Trust Account that will be available to fund the redemption of the Public Shares.

In
order to protect the amounts held in the Trust Account, the Sponsor has agreed that it will be liable to the Company if and to the extent
any claims by a third party for services rendered or products sold to the Company, or a prospective target business with which the Company
has entered into a written letter of intent, confidentiality or other similar agreement or Business Combination agreement, reduce the
amount of funds 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 Public Share due to reductions in
the value of the Trust Account assets, less taxes payable, provided that such liability will not apply to any claims by a third party
or prospective target business who executed a waiver of any and all rights to the monies held in the Trust Account (whether or not such
waiver is enforceable) nor will it apply to any claims under the indemnity of the underwriters of the Initial Public Offering against
certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).
Liquidity, Capital Resources and Going
Concern
As
of September 30, 2024, the Company had cash of $480,735 held outside of the Trust Account and working capital of $518,131. The Company
will use such 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, and structure, negotiate
and complete a Business Combination.
From
interest earned on the Trust Account, the Company can withdraw, as Permitted Withdrawals, (i) up to $1,000,000 annually, to fund working
capital requirements in connection with completing a Business Combination and (ii) funds to pay its taxes. As of September 30, 2024,
$1,000,000 in Permitted Withdrawals had been removed from the Trust Account for working capital purposes.
In
order to finance transaction costs in connection with the initial Business Combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor or
certain of the Company’s officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds as may be required on a non-interest
bearing basis (“Working Capital Loans”). If the Company completes the initial Business Combination, the Company will repay
such Working Capital Loans. In the event that the initial Business Combination does not close, the Company may use a portion of the working
capital held outside the Trust Account to repay such Working Capital Loans, but no proceeds from the Trust Account would be used for
such repayment. Up to $1,500,000 of such Working Capital Loans may be convertible into warrants, at a price of $1.00 per warrant at the
option of the lender, upon consummation of the initial Business Combination. The warrants would be identical to the Private Placement
Warrants. Other than as set forth above, the terms of such Working Capital Loans, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements
exist with respect to such Working Capital Loans. There were no Working Capital Loans outstanding as of September 30, 2024 and December
31, 2023.
In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern
considerations in accordance with ASC 205-40, Going Concern, as of September 30, 2024, 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. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern
through one year from the date of these unaudited condensed financial statements if a Business Combination is not consummated. These unaudited
condensed 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 does not believe it will need to raise additional funds in order to meet the expenditures required for operating its business.
However, if the Company’s 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 its Business Combination. Moreover, the Company may need to obtain additional financing either to complete its
Business Combination or because the Company may become obligated to redeem a significant number of its Public Shares upon consummation
of its Business Combination, in which case the Company may issue additional securities or incur debt in connection with such Business
Combination.
NOTE 2 — SUMMARY
OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis
of Presentation
The
accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars and 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 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, the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements 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.

TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The
accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s December 31, 2023 Annual
Report on Form 10-K, as filed with the SEC on March 25, 2024. The interim results for the three and nine months ended September
30, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2024 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, 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 of 2002, 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 an emerging growth company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with
the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies, but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected
not to opt out of such extended transition period, which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application
dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time
private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements
with those of another public company that (i) is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company and (ii) 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 unaudited condensed financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the 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 unaudited
condensed financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period.
Making
estimates requires Management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of
a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements,
which Management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly,
the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.
Cash
and Cash Equivalents
The
Company considers all short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.
The Company had $480,735 and $1,292,907 in cash as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. The Company had no cash
equivalents as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.
Marketable
Securities Held in Trust Account
As
of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, substantially all of the assets held in the Trust Account were held in money market funds,
which are invested primarily in Treasury securities. All of the Company’s investments held in the Trust Account are presented on
the accompanying condensed balance sheets at fair value at the end of each reporting period. Gains and losses resulting from the change
in fair value of investments held in Trust Account are included in interest earned on marketable securities held in Trust Account in
the accompanying unaudited condensed statements of operations. The estimated fair values of investments held in the Trust Account are
determined using available market information. The Company has withdrawn $1,000,000 from the Trust Account as of the September 30, 2024.

Offering
Costs
The
Company complies with the requirements of FASB ASC Topic 340-10-S99 and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 5A, “Expenses of Offering.”
Deferred offering costs consist principally of professional and registration fees that are related to the Initial Public Offering. FASB
ASC Topic 470-20, “Debt with Conversion and Other Options” (“ASC 470-20”) addresses the allocation of proceeds
from the issuance of convertible debt into its equity and debt components. The Company applies this guidance to allocate Initial Public
Offering proceeds from the Units between the Class A Ordinary Shares and the Warrants, using the residual method by allocating Initial
Public Offering proceeds first to assigned value of the Warrants and then to the Class A Ordinary Shares. Offering costs allocated to
the Class A Ordinary Shares were charged to temporary equity and offering costs allocated to the Warrants were charged to shareholders’
equity, as Public Warrant and Private Placement Warrants, after Management’s evaluation, are accounted for under equity treatment
in the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements.
Fair
Value of Financial Instruments
The
fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under FASB ASC Topic 820, “Fair
Value Measurement,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the accompanying condensed balance sheets, primarily due to
their short-term nature.
Class
A Ordinary Shares Subject to Redemption
The
Public Shares contain a redemption feature that allows for the redemption of such Public Shares in connection with the Company’s
liquidation, or if there is a shareholder vote or tender offer in connection with the Company’s initial Business Combination. In
accordance with FASB ASC Topic 480-10-S99, “Distinguishing Liabilities From Equity”, the Company classifies Public Shares
subject to redemption outside of permanent equity as the redemption provisions are not solely within the control of the Company. The
Public Shares sold as part of the Units in the Initial Public Offering were issued with other freestanding instruments (i.e., the Public
Warrants) and as such, the initial carrying value of Public Shares classified as temporary equity are the allocated proceeds determined
in accordance with ASC 470-20. The Company recognizes changes in redemption value immediately as it occurs and will adjust the carrying
value of redeemable shares to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Immediately upon the closing of the Initial
Public Offering, the Company recognized the accretion from initial book value to redemption amount value. The change in the carrying
value of redeemable shares will result in charges against additional paid-in capital (to the extent available) and accumulated deficit.
Accordingly, at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, Class A Ordinary Shares subject to possible redemption are presented at redemption
value as temporary equity, outside of the shareholders’ deficit section of the accompanying condensed balance sheets. The Company
recognizes changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and adjusts the carrying value of redeemable shares to equal the redemption
value at the end of each reporting period. Increases or decreases in the carrying amount of redeemable shares are affected by charges
against additional paid (to the extent available) in capital and accumulated deficit.
At
September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Class A Ordinary Shares subject to possible redemption reflected in the accompanying condensed
balance sheets are reconciled in the following table:

Income
Taxes
The
Company accounts for income taxes under FASB ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes” (“ASC 740”), which requires an asset
and liability approach to financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed
for differences between the financial statements and tax bases of assets and liabilities that will result in future taxable or deductible
amounts, based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income.
Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.
ASC
740 prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions
taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more likely than not to be
sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. Management determined that the Cayman Islands is the Company’s major tax jurisdiction.
The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. As of September 30,
2024 and December 31, 2023, there were no unrecognized tax benefits and no amounts accrued for interest and penalties. The Company is
currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviation from its position.
The
Company is considered to be an exempted Cayman Islands company with no connection to any other taxable jurisdiction and is presently
not subject to income taxes or income tax filing requirements in the Cayman Islands or the United States. As such, the Company’s
tax provision was zero for the period presented in the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements.
Warrant
Instruments
The
Company accounts for Warrants as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the instruments’
specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in ASC 480 and FASB ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging” (“ASC
815”). The assessment considers whether the instruments are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, meet the definition
of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and whether the instruments meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815,
including whether the instruments are indexed to the Ordinary Shares (as defined in Note 7) and whether the instrument holders could
potentially require “net cash settlement” in a circumstance outside of the Company’s control, among other conditions
for equity classification. This assessment, which requires the use of professional judgment, is conducted at the time of warrant issuance
and as of each subsequent quarterly period end date while the instruments are outstanding. Upon review of the warrant agreement, dated
November 20, 2023, the Company entered into with Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company (“Continental”) in connection
with the Initial Public Offering (the “Warrant Agreement”), the Management concluded that the Public Warrants and Private
Placement Warrants issued pursuant to such Warrant Agreement qualify for equity accounting treatment.
Share-Based
Compensation
The
Company records share-based compensation in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718, “Compensation-Share Compensation” (“ASC
718”), guidance to account for its share-based compensation. It defines a fair value-based method of accounting for an employee
share option or similar equity instrument. The Company recognizes all forms of share-based payments, including share option grants, Warrants
and restricted share grants, at their fair value on the grant date, which are based on the estimated number of awards that are ultimately
expected to vest. Share-based payments, excluding restricted shares, are valued using a Black-Scholes option pricing model. Grants of
share-based payment awards issued to non-employees for services rendered have been recorded at the fair value of the share-based payment,
which is the more readily determinable value. The grants are amortized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service periods, which
is generally the vesting period. If an award is granted, but vesting does not occur, any previously recognized compensation cost is reversed
in the period related to the termination of service. Share-based compensation expenses are included in costs and operating expenses depending
on the nature of the services provided in the accompanying unaudited condensed statements of operations.

Company complies with accounting and disclosure requirements of FASB ASC Topic 260, “Earnings Per Share.” Income and losses
are shared pro rata to the shares. Net income per Ordinary Share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of
Ordinary Shares outstanding for the period. Accretion associated with the redeemable Ordinary Shares is excluded from income per Ordinary
Share as the redemption value approximates fair value.
The
calculation of diluted income per Ordinary Share does not consider the effect of the Warrants issued in connection with the (i) Initial
Public Offering, (ii) the exercise of the over-allotment option and (iii) Private Placement, since the average price of the Ordinary
Shares for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 was less than the exercise price and therefore, the inclusion of such Warrants
under the Treasury stock method would be anti-dilutive and the exercise is contingent upon the occurrence of future events. The Warrants
are exercisable to purchase 10,666,667 Class A Ordinary Shares in the aggregate. As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the
Company did not have any dilutive securities or other contracts that could, potentially, be exercised or converted into Ordinary Shares
and then share in the earnings of the Company. As a result, diluted net income per Ordinary Share is the same as basic net income per
Ordinary Share for the periods presented.

following table reflects the calculation of basic and diluted net income per Ordinary Share:

Concentration
of Credit Risk
Financial
instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of a cash account in a financial institution,
which exceed the Federal Depository Insurance Corporation coverage limit of $250,000. Any loss incurred or a lack of access to such funds
could have a significant adverse impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.
Recent
Accounting Pronouncements
In
June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) Topic 2016-13 – “Financial Instruments –
Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments” (“ASU 2016-13”). This update requires
financial assets measured at amortized cost basis to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. The measurement of expected
credit losses is based on relevant information about past events, including historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable
and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of the reported amount. Since June 2016, the FASB issued clarifying updates
to the new standard including changing the effective date for smaller reporting companies. The guidance is effective for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 2022, and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted
ASU 2016-13, as of November 24, 2023. There was no effect from such adoption to the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements.

In
August 2020, the FASB issued ASU Topic 2020-06, “Debt — Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives
and Hedging — Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40)” (“ASU 2020-06”), to simplify certain
financial instruments. ASU 2020-06 eliminates the current models that require separation of beneficial conversion and cash conversion
features from convertible instruments and simplifies the derivative scope exception guidance pertaining to equity classification of contracts
in an entity’s own equity. The new standard also introduces additional disclosures for convertible debt and freestanding instruments
that are indexed to and settled in an entity’s own equity. ASU 2020-06 amends the diluted earnings per share guidance, including
the requirement to use the if-converted method for all convertible instruments. ASU 2020-06 is effective for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 2023 and should be applied on a full or modified retrospective basis. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than fiscal
years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company adopted ASU 2020-06, as of
September 27, 2023 (inception). There was no effect from such adoption to the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements.
Management
does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements, if currently adopted, would have a
material effect on the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements.
NOTE 3 —
INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING
Pursuant
to the Initial Public Offering, the Company sold 17,000,000 Units, which included a partial exercise by the underwriter of their over-allotment
option in the amount of 2,000,000 Units, at a purchase price of $10.00 per Unit. Each Unit consists of one Public Share and one-third
of one Public Warrant. Each whole Public Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one Class A Ordinary Share at a price of $11.50 per
share, subject to adjustment. Each Public Warrant will become exercisable 30 days after the completion of the initial Business Combination
and will expire five years after the completion of the initial Business Combination, or earlier upon redemption or liquidation (see Note
7).
On
January 9, 2024, the Company announced that, commencing on January 11, 2024, the holders of the Units may elect to separately trade the
Public Shares and the Public Warrants included in the Units. No fractional Public Warrants will be issued upon separation of the Units
and only whole Public Warrants will trade. Any Units not separated will continue to trade on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”)
under the symbol “CLBR.U.” The Public Shares and the Public Warrants now trade on the NYSE under the symbols “CLBR”
and “CLBR.WS,” respectively. Holders of the Units will need to have their brokers contact Continental, the Company’s
transfer agent, in order to separate the Units into Public Shares and Public Warrants.
NOTE 4 —
PRIVATE PLACEMENT
Simultaneously
with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Sponsor purchased an aggregate of 5,000,000 Private Placement Warrants at a price
of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant, or $5,000,000 in the aggregate, in the Private Placement. Each whole Private Placement Warrant
entitles the registered holder to purchase one Class A Ordinary Share at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment (see Note
7). A portion of the proceeds from the Private Placement was added to the proceeds from the Initial Public Offering 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 Warrants will be used to fund the redemption of the Public Shares (subject to the requirements of applicable law) and the Private
Placement Warrants will expire worthless.

RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Founder
Shares
On
September 27, 2023, the Sponsor paid $25,000 to cover certain offering costs of the Company in consideration for 3,737,500 Class B Ordinary
Shares (as defined in Note 7) (the “Founder Shares”). On November 20, 2023, the Company effected a share capitalization in
the form of a share dividend of approximately 0.15384615 fully paid Class B Ordinary Shares for each Class B Ordinary Share in issue,
resulting in the Sponsor holding an aggregate of 4,312,500 Founder Shares. The Founder Shares included an aggregate of up to 562,500
Class B Ordinary Shares that were subject to forfeiture depending on the extent to which the underwriters’ over-allotment option
was exercised, so that the number of Founder Shares would equal, on an as-converted basis, approximately 20% of the Company’s issued
and outstanding Ordinary Shares after the Initial Public Offering (excluding any Public Shares purchased by the Sponsor in the Initial
Public Offering). On November 24, 2023, as a result of the underwriters’ election to partially exercise their over-allotment option
and their decision to forfeit the remaining option, 62,500 Founder Shares were forfeited resulting in the Sponsor holding 4,250,000 Founder
Shares. The remaining Founder Shares are no longer subject to forfeiture.

On
November 17, 2023, the Sponsor awarded equity incentives in connection with services to the Sponsor and/or the Company. The equity incentives
represent the Founder Shares owned by the Sponsor as of November 17, 2023, the date of issuance. The equity incentives to the Management
and the Company’s directors are in the scope of ASC 718. Under ASC 718, share-based compensation associated with equity-classified
awards is measured at fair value upon the grant date. The fair value of the 1,459,000 Founder Shares granted to the Company’s directors
and members of Management was $3,603,730 or $2.47 per share. The Founders Shares were granted subject to a performance condition (i.e.,
the occurrence of a Business Combination). Compensation expense related to the Founders Shares is recognized only when the performance
condition is probable of occurrence under the applicable accounting literature in this circumstance. As of September 30, 2024, the Company
determined that a Business Combination is not considered probable, and, therefore, no share-based compensation expense has been recognized.
The fair value was determined using a Probability-Weighted Expected Return Method, discounted for lack of marketability, with a volatility
of 3.8%, risk-free rate of 4.89% and an implied discount for lack of marketability of 1.25% as of the valuation date of November 17,
2023.
The
Sponsor has agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of the Founder Shares (except to certain permitted transferees as disclosed herein)
until the earlier of: (i) six months following the consummation of a Business Combination; or (ii) subsequent to the consummation of
a Business Combination, the date on which the Company consummates a transaction that results in all of its shareholders having the right
to exchange their shares for cash, securities, or other property.
Promissory
Note — Related Party
On
September 27, 2023, the Sponsor agreed to loan the Company an aggregate of up to $300,000 to cover expenses related to the Initial Public
Offering pursuant to a promissory note (the “IPO Promissory Note”). This loan is non-interest bearing and was payable on
the earlier of December 31, 2024, or the date on which the Company consummates the Initial Public Offering. The outstanding balance of
$196,319 was repaid at the closing of the Initial Public Offering on November 24, 2023, and borrowings under the IPO Promissory Note
are no longer available.
Administrative
Support Agreements
The
Company entered into an agreement, commencing on November 20, 2023, through the earlier of the Company’s consummation of a Business
Combination and its liquidation, pursuant to which the Company pays an affiliate of the Sponsor a total of $10,000 per month for office
space, secretarial and administrative services provided to members of Management (the “Administrative Services Agreement”).
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company has paid $30,000 and $90,000, respectively, in connection with the
Administrative Services Agreement, which is reflected in general and administrative expenses in the accompanying unaudited condensed
statements of operations. For the period from September 27, 2023 (inception) through September 30, 2023, the Company did not incur any
administrative expense.
In
addition, the Company also entered into an agreement, commencing on November 20, 2023, through the earlier of the Company’s consummation
of a Business Combination and its liquidation, pursuant to which the Company pays an affiliate of the Sponsor, $60,000 per month for
the services of the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Chief Investment Officer, and Chief Operating Officer (the “Services
and Indemnification Agreement”). For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company has paid $180,000 and $540,000
in connection with the Services and Indemnification Agreement, which is reflected in general and administrative expenses in the accompanying
unaudited condensed statements of operations. For the period from September 27, 2023 (inception) through September 30, 2023, the Company
did not incur any administrative expense.
Related
Party Loans
In
order to finance transaction costs in connection with the initial Business Combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor or
certain of the Company’s officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company Working Capital Loans as may be
required on a non-interest bearing basis. If the Company completes the initial Business Combination, the Company will repay such Working
Capital Loans. In the event that the initial Business Combination does not close, the Company may use a portion of the working capital
held outside the Trust Account to repay such Working Capital Loans, but no proceeds from the Trust Account would be used for such repayment.
Up to $1,500,000 of such Working Capital Loans may be convertible into warrants, at a price of $1.00 per warrant at the option of the
lender, upon consummation of the initial Business Combination. The warrants would be identical to the Private Placement Warrants. Other
than as set forth above, the terms of such loans by the Company’s officers and directors, if any, have not been determined and
no written agreements exist with respect to such Working Capital Loans. There are no Working Capital Loans outstanding as of September
30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

NOTE 6 — COMMITMENTS
AND CONTINGENCIES
Risks
and Uncertainties
The
United States and global markets are experiencing volatility and disruption following the geopolitical instability resulting from the
ongoing Russia-Ukraine conflict and the recent escalation of the conflict in the Middle East. In response to the ongoing Russia-Ukraine
conflict, the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (“NATO”) deployed additional military forces to eastern Europe, and the
United States, the United Kingdom, the European Union and other countries have announced various sanctions and restrictive actions against
Russia, Belarus and related individuals and entities, including the removal of certain financial institutions from the Society for Worldwide
Interbank Financial Telecommunication payment system. Certain countries, including the United States, have also provided and may continue
to provide military aid or other assistance to Ukraine and to Israel, increasing geopolitical tensions among a number of nations. The
invasion of Ukraine by Russia and the escalation of the conflict in the Middle East and the resulting measures that have been taken,
and could be taken in the future, by NATO, the United States, the United Kingdom, the European Union, Israel and its neighboring states
and other countries have created global security concerns that could have a lasting impact on regional and global economies. Although
the length and impact of the ongoing conflicts are highly unpredictable, they could lead to market disruptions, including significant
volatility in commodity prices, credit and capital markets, as well as supply chain interruptions and increased cyber-attacks against
U.S. companies. Additionally, any resulting sanctions could adversely affect the global economy and financial markets and lead to instability
and lack of liquidity in capital markets.
Any
of the above-mentioned factors, or any other negative impact on the global economy, capital markets or other geopolitical conditions
resulting from the Russian invasion of Ukraine, the escalation of the conflict in the Middle East and subsequent sanctions or related
actions, could adversely affect the Company’s search for an initial Business Combination and any target business with which the
Company may ultimately consummate an initial Business Combination.
Registration
Rights
The
holders of the Founder Shares, the Private Placement Warrants and any warrants that may be issued upon conversion of any Working Capital
Loans (and any Class A Ordinary Shares (i) issuable upon the exercise of the Private Placement Warrants, (ii) underlying the warrants
that may be issued upon conversion of Working Capital Loans and (iii) issuable upon conversion of the Founder Shares) have registration
rights to require the Company to register a sale of any of its securities held by them pursuant to a registration rights agreement, dated
as of November 20, 2023. The holders of these securities are entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short form demands, that
the Company register such securities. In addition, the holders have certain “piggyback” registration rights with respect
to registration statements filed subsequent to the completion of an initial Business Combination. The Company will bear the expenses
incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.
Underwriting
Agreement
The
underwriters of the Initial Public Offering had a 45-day option from the date of the Initial Public Offering to purchase up to an additional
2,250,000 Units to cover over-allotments, if any. On November 24, 2023, simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering,
the underwriters elected to partially exercise the over-allotment option to purchase an additional 2,000,000 Units at a price of $10.00
per Unit. The underwriters determined to forfeit the remaining 250,000 Units.
The
underwriters were entitled to a cash underwriting fee of $0.15 per Unit, or $2,550,000 in the aggregate, paid upon the closing of the
Initial Public Offering. In addition, $0.35 per Unit, or $5,950,000 in the aggregate, will be payable to the underwriters as a deferred
underwriting fee. The deferred fee will become payable to the underwriters from the amounts held in the Trust Account solely in the event
that the Company completes an initial Business Combination, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement, dated November 20, 2023,
by and between the Company and BTIG, LLC, as representative of the several underwriters of the Initial Public Offering. Up to $0.30 per
Unit of the $0.35 at the sole discretion of the Company may be reallocated for expenses in connection with its initial Business Combination
and working capital needs post the initial Business Combination. Any such reduction of the deferred underwriting fee shall reduce proportionately
the deferred underwriting fee to the underwriters and will also reduce proportionately the amount payable to Roth Capital Partners, LLC
(“Roth”) under the Financial Advisory Services Agreement (as defined and described below).

Advisory
Agreement
On
November 20, 2023, pursuant to the Financial Advisory Services Agreement by and between the Company and Roth (the “Financial Advisory
Services Agreement”), the Company engaged Roth to provide consulting and advisory services in connection with the Initial Public
Offering. Roth represented the Company’s interests only, was independent of the underwriters and was not a party to any securities
purchase agreement with the Company, the underwriters, or investors in relation to the Initial Public Offering. Roth did not participate
(within the meaning of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) Rule 5110(j)(16)) in the Initial Public Offering;
acted as an independent financial adviser (within the meaning of FINRA Rule 5110(j)(9)), and it did not act as an underwriter in connection
with the Initial Public Offering. Under the Financial Advisory Services Agreement, Roth’s fee was $510,000, payable upon the closing
of the Initial Public Offering. A deferred fee of up to $1,190,000 will be paid to Roth at the closing of the Business Combination. This
deferred fee will only be paid to Roth if the Company completes a Business Combination. Roth’s fees in both cases will be offset
from the underwriting fees already recorded between the cash underwriting fee of $2,550,000 and the deferred underwriting fee of $5,950,000,
resulting in no additional incremental fee already recorded by the Company.

Shares are entitled to one vote for each share. On September 27, 2023, the Company issued 3,737,500 Class B Ordinary Shares to the
Sponsor for $25,000 as Founder Shares. On November 20, 2023, the Company effected a share capitalization in the form of a share dividend
of approximately 0.15384615 fully paid Class B Ordinary Shares for each Class B Ordinary Share in issue, resulting in the Sponsor holding
an aggregate of 4,312,500 Founder Shares. The Founder Shares included an aggregate of up to 562,500 shares that were subject to forfeiture
depending on the extent to which the underwriters’ over-allotment option was exercised, so that the number of Founder Shares will
equal, on an as-converted basis, approximately 20% of the Company’s issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares after the Initial Public
Offering (excluding any Public Shares purchased by the Sponsor in the Initial Public Offering). On November 24, 2023, as a result of
the underwriters’ election to partially exercise their over-allotment option, 62,500 Founder Shares were forfeited resulting in
the Sponsor holding 4,250,000 Founder Shares. The remaining Founder Shares are no long subject to forfeiture.

reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like, and subject to further adjustment as provided herein. In the case that additional Class
A Ordinary Shares or equity-linked securities are issued or deemed issued in connection with the Business Combination, the number of
Class A Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion of all Founder Shares will equal, in the aggregate, on an as-converted basis, 20% of

In
addition, only holders of Class B Ordinary Shares will have the right to vote on the appointment of directors prior to the completion
of the Company’s initial Business Combination and on a vote to continue the Company in a jurisdiction outside the Cayman Islands.
Holders of Public Shares are also not entitled to vote on the appointment of directors prior to the completion of the Company’s
initial Business Combination.
Warrants
As
of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, there are 10,666,667 Warrants (5,666,667 Public Warrants and 5,000,000 Private Placement
Warrants) issued and outstanding. Each whole Public Warrant entitles the registered holder to purchase one Class A Ordinary Share at
a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment as discussed below, at any time commencing 30 days after the completion of the initial
Business Combination. Pursuant to the Warrant Agreement, a warrant holder may exercise its Public Warrants only for a whole number of
Class A Ordinary Shares. No fractional Public Warrants will be issued upon separation of the Units and only whole Public Warrants will
trade. The Public Warrants will expire five years after the completion of the initial Business Combination, at 5:00 p.m., New York City
time, or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.
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 commercially reasonable efforts to file with the SEC a post-effective amendment to the IPO Registration
Statement or a new registration statement covering the registration, under the Securities Act, of the Class A Ordinary Shares issuable
upon exercise of the Warrants and thereafter will use our commercially reasonable efforts to cause the same to become effective within
60 business days following the initial Business Combination and to maintain a current prospectus relating to the Class A Ordinary Shares
issuable upon exercise of the Warrants, until the expiration of the Warrants in accordance with the provisions of the Warrant Agreement.
If a registration statement covering the Class A Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants is not effective by the sixtieth
(60 business days 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.
Once
the Warrants become exercisable, the Company may call the Warrants for redemption for cash:
| ● | in whole and not in part; |
| | |
| ● | at a price of $0.01 per Warrant; |
| | |
| ● | upon not less than 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption (the “30-Day Redemption Period”) to each warrant holder; and |
| ● | if, and only if, the closing price of the Ordinary Shares equals or exceeds $18.00 per share (as adjusted for share sub-divisions, share capitalizations, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like and for certain issuances of Class A Ordinary Shares and equity-linked securities for capital raising purposes in connection with the closing of the initial Business Combination as described elsewhere in the IPO Registration Statement) on each of 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period commencing once the Warrants become exercisable and ending three business days before the Company sends the notice of redemption to the warrant holders and there is an effective registration statement under the Securities Act covering the Class A Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants and a current prospectus relating to those Class A Ordinary Shares is available throughout the 30-Day Redemption Period. |

If
and when the Warrants become redeemable by the Company for cash, the Company may exercise the redemption right even if the Company is
unable to register or qualify the underlying securities for sale under all applicable state securities laws.
The
Private Placement Warrants (including the Class A Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of the Private Placement Warrants) will not
be transferable, assignable or salable until 30 days after the completion of the initial Business Combination. The Private Placement
Warrants have terms and provisions that are identical to those of the Public Warrants being sold as part of the Units in the Initial
Public Offering.
The
Company accounts for the 10,666,667 Warrants issued in connection with the Initial Public Offering and the Private Placement (including
5,666,667 Public Warrants and 5,000,000 Private Placement Warrants) in accordance with the guidance contained in ASC 815-40. Such guidance
provides that the Warrants described above are not precluded from equity classification. Equity-classified contracts are initially measured
at fair value (or allocated value). Subsequent changes in fair value are not recognized as long as the contracts continue to be classified
in equity.
NOTE
8 — FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The
fair value of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities reflects Management’s estimate of amounts that the Company would
have received in connection with the sale of the assets or paid in connection with the transfer of the liabilities in an orderly transaction
between market participants at the measurement date. In connection with measuring the fair value of its assets and liabilities, the Company
seeks to maximize the use of observable inputs (market data obtained from independent sources) and to minimize the use of unobservable
inputs (internal assumptions about how market participants would price assets and liabilities). The following fair value hierarchy is
used to classify assets and liabilities based on the observable inputs and unobservable inputs used in order to value the assets and
liabilities:
|
Level 1: |
Quoted prices in active
markets for identical assets or liabilities. An active market for an asset or liability is a market in which transactions for the
asset or liability occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis. |
|
|
|
|

NOTE 9 — SUBSEQUENT
EVENTS
The

unaudited condensed financial statements were issued. Based upon this review, the Company did not identify any subsequent events that
would have required adjustment or disclosure in the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements.
Item
2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
Cautionary
Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
All
statements other than statements of historical fact included in this Report including, without limitation, statements under this Item
regarding our financial position, business strategy and the plans and objectives of Management for future operations, are forward-looking
statements. When used in this Report, words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,”
“intend” and similar expressions, as they relate to us or our Management, identify forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking
statements are based on the beliefs of our Management, as well as assumptions made by, and information currently available to, our Management.
Actual results could differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors detailed
in our filings with the SEC. All subsequent written or oral forward-looking statements attributable to us or persons acting on our behalf
are qualified in their entirety by this paragraph.
The
following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the unaudited
condensed financial statements and the notes thereto included in this Report under “Item 1. Financial Statements”.
Overview
We
are a blank check company incorporated in the Cayman Islands on September 27, 2023, formed for the purpose of effecting a Business Combination
with one or more businesses or entities. We intend to effectuate our Business Combination using cash derived from the proceeds of the
Initial Public Offering and the Private Placement, our shares, debt or a combination of cash, shares and debt.
We
expect to continue to incur significant costs in the pursuit of our acquisition plans. We cannot assure our shareholders that our plans
to complete a Business Combination will be successful.
We
have until November 24, 2025 (or February 24, 2026 if we have an executed a letter of intent, agreement in principle or definitive agreement
for an initial Business Combination within 24 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering), or until such earlier liquidation
date as our Board may approve, to complete a Business Combination. We may also hold a shareholder vote at any time to amend the Amended
and Restated Memorandum to modify the Combination Period. We will provide the Public Shareholders with the opportunity to redeem all
or a portion of their Public Shares upon the completion of the initial Business Combination at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal
to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account as of two business days prior to the consummation of our initial Business
Combination, including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account (net of Permitted Withdrawals), divided by the number of
then outstanding Public Shares, subject to the limitations and on the conditions described elsewhere in the Report.
On
January 9, 2024, we announced that, commencing on January 11, 2024, the holders of the Units, each Unit consisting of one Public Share
and one-third of one Public Warrant, with each whole Public Warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one Class A Ordinary Share
for $11.50 per share, could elect to separately trade the Public Shares and the Public Warrants included in the Units. No fractional
Public Warrants will be issued upon separation of the Units and only whole Public Warrants will trade. Any Units not separated will continue
to trade on the NYSE under the symbol “CLBR.U.” The Public Shares and the Public Warrants now trade on the NYSE under the
symbols “CLBR” and “CLBR.WS,” respectively. Holders of Units will need to have their brokers contact Continental,
our transfer agent, in order to separate the Units into Public Shares and Public Warrants.
The
SEC has adopted new rules and regulations relating to SPACs, which became effective on July 1, 2024. The 2024 SPAC Rules require, among
other matters, (i) additional disclosures relating to SPAC sponsors and related persons; (ii) additional disclosures relating to SPACs’
business combination transactions; (iii) additional disclosures relating to dilution and to conflicts of interest involving sponsors
and their affiliates in both SPAC initial public offerings and business combination transactions; (iv) additional disclosures regarding
projections included in SEC filings in connection with proposed business combination transactions; and (v) the requirement that
both the SPAC and its target company be co-registrants for business combination registration statements. In addition, the SEC’s
adopting release provided guidance describing circumstances in which a SPAC could become subject to regulation under the Investment Company
Act, including its duration, asset composition, business purpose, and the activities of the SPAC and its management team in furtherance
of such goals. The 2024 SPAC Rules may materially affect our ability to negotiate and complete our initial Business Combination and may
increase the costs and time related thereto.
Results
of Operations
We
have neither engaged in any operations nor generated any revenues to date. Our only activities from September 27, 2023 (inception) through
September 30, 2024 were organizational activities, those necessary to prepare for and consummate the Initial Public Offering, and identifying
a target company for a Business Combination. We do not expect to generate any operating revenues until after the completion of our Business
Combination. We generate non-operating income in the form of interest income on marketable securities held in the Trust Account. We incur
expenses as a result of being a public company (for legal, financial reporting, accounting and auditing compliance), as well as for due
diligence expenses.
For
the three months ended September 30, 2024, we had a net income of $1,440,771, which consisted of interest earned on marketable securities
held in the Trust Account of $2,266,437, offset by operating expenses of $825,666.
For
the nine months ended September 30, 2024, we had a net income of $4,754,520, which consisted of interest earned on marketable securities
held in the Trust Account of $6,735,555, offset by operating expenses of $1,981,035.
For
the period from September 27, 2023 (inception) through September 30, 2023, we had a net loss off $13,359, which consisted of operating
expenses.
Factors
That May Adversely Affect our Results of Operations
Our
results of operations and our 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 our control. Our business could be impacted
by, among other things, downturns in the financial markets or in economic conditions, increases in oil prices, inflation, increases in
interest rates, supply chain disruptions, declines in consumer confidence and spending, public health considerations, and geopolitical
instability, such as the military conflicts in Ukraine and the Middle East. We cannot at this time 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.
Liquidity,
Capital Resources and Going Concern
On
November 24, 2023, we consummated the Initial Public Offering of 17,000,000 Units, which includes the partial exercise by the underwriters
of their over-allotment option in the amount of 2,000,000 Units, at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $170,000,000. Simultaneously
with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, pursuant to the Warrant Subscription Agreement, we consummated the sale of 5,000,000
Private Placement Warrants to the Sponsor at a price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant, or $5,000,000 in the aggregate.
For
the nine months ended September 30, 2024, net cash used in operating activities was $1,726,456. Net income of $4,754,520 was affected
by interest earned on marketable securities of $6,735,555 and changes in operating assets and liabilities, which used $254,579 of cash
from operating activities.
For
the period from September 27, 2023 (inception) through September 30, 2023, net cash used in operating activities was $0.
From
interest earned on the Trust Account, we can withdraw, as Permitted Withdrawals, (i) up to $1,000,000 annually to fund working capital
requirements in connection with completing a Business Combination and (ii) funds to pay our taxes.
On
April 1, 2024, we withdrew $1,000,000 from the Trust Account as a Permitted Withdrawal for working capital purposes and as of September
30, 2024, $1,000,000 in Permitted Withdrawals had been removed from the Trust Account.
On
September 27, 2023, the Sponsor loaned us an aggregate of up to $300,000 to cover expenses related to the Initial Public Offering pursuant
to the IPO Promissory Note. This loan was non-interest bearing and payable on the earlier of December 31, 2024, or the date on which
we consummated the Initial Public Offering. The outstanding balance of $196,319 was repaid at the closing of the Initial Public Offering
on November 24, 2023, and borrowings under the IPO Promissory Note are no longer available.
At
September 30, 2024, we had cash and marketable securities held in the Trust Account of approximately $176,592,012 (including approximately
$6,592,012 of interest income). We intend to use substantially all of the funds held in the Trust Account, including any amounts representing
interest earned on the Trust Account, which interest shall be net of Permitted Withdrawals and excluding deferred underwriting commissions,
to complete our Business Combination. We may withdraw interest from the Trust Account for any Permitted Withdrawals. 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.
At
September 30, 2024, we had cash of $480,735 held outside of the Trust Account. We 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 finance transaction costs in connection with the initial Business Combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor or
certain of our officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan us Working Capital Loans as may be required on a non-interest
bearing basis. If we complete the initial Business Combination, we will repay such Working Capital Loans. In the event that the initial
Business Combination does not close, we may use a portion of the working capital held outside the Trust Account to repay such Working
Capital Loans, but no proceeds from the Trust Account would be used for such repayment. Up to $1,500,000 of such Working Capital Loans
may be convertible into warrants, at a price of $1.00 per warrant at the option of the lender, upon consummation of the initial Business
Combination. The warrants would be identical to the Private Placement Warrants. Other than as set forth above, the terms of such Working
Capital Loans by our officers and directors, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such Working
Capital Loans. There were no Working Capital Loans outstanding as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.
In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern
considerations in accordance with ASC 205-40, Going Concern, as of September 30, 2024, 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. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern
through one year from the date of these unaudited condensed financial statements if a Business Combination is not consummated. These unaudited
condensed 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.
Off-Balance
Sheet Financing Arrangements
We
have no obligations, assets or liabilities, which would be considered off-balance sheet arrangements as of September 30, 2024. We do
not participate in transactions that create relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, often referred to as
“variable interest entities”, which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements.
We have not entered into any off-balance sheet financing arrangements, established any special purpose entities, guaranteed any debt
or commitments of other entities, or purchased any non-financial assets.
Contractual
Obligations
We
do not have any long-term debt, capital lease obligations, operating lease obligations or long-term liabilities, other than the (i) the
Administrative Services Agreement and (ii) Services and Indemnification Agreement. Under the Administrative Services Agreement, we pay
$10,000 per month to an affiliate of our Sponsor for office space and secretarial and administrative support services. Under the Services
and Indemnification Agreement, we pay an affiliate of the Sponsor $60,000 per month for the services of our Chief Executive Officer,
Chief Financial Officer, Chief Investment Officer, and Chief Operating Officer. We will cease these monthly fees under both the Administrative
Services Agreement and the Services and Indemnification Agreement upon the earlier to occur of the completion of our initial Business
Combination or liquidation. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, we have paid $30,000 and $90,000, respectively, pursuant
to the Administrative Services Agreement and $180,000 and $540,000, respectively, pursuant to the Services and Indemnification Agreement.
The
underwriters of the Initial Public Offering were entitled to a cash underwriting fee of $0.15 per Unit, or $2,550,000 in the aggregate,
paid upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering. In addition, $0.35 per Unit, or $5,950,000 in the aggregate, will be payable to
the underwriters for a deferred underwriting fee. The deferred fee will become payable to the underwriters from the amounts held in the
Trust Account solely if we complete an initial Business Combination, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement for the Initial
Public Offering. Up to $0.30 per Unit of the $0.35 at our sole discretion may be reallocated for expenses in connection with our initial
Business Combination and working capital needs post the initial Business Combination. Any such reduction of the deferred underwriting
fee shall reduce proportionately the deferred underwriting fee to the underwriters and will also reduce proportionately the amount payable
to Roth under the Financial Advisory Services Agreement.
On
November 20, 2023, we entered into the Financial Advisory Services Agreement with Roth, pursuant to which, Roth provided us with consulting
and advisory services in connection with the Initial Public Offering. Roth represented our interests only, was independent of the underwriters
and was not a party to any securities purchase agreement with us, the underwriters, or investors in relation to the Initial Public Offering.
Roth did not participate (within the meaning of FINRA Rule 5110(j)(16)) in the Initial Public Offering; acted as an independent financial
adviser (within the meaning of FINRA Rule 5110(j)(9)), and it did not act as an underwriter in connection with the Initial Public Offering.
Under the Financial Advisory Services Agreement, Roth’s fee was $510,000, payable upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering.
A deferred fee of up to $1,190,000 will be paid to Roth at the closing of the Business Combination. This deferred fee will only be paid
to Roth if we completed a Business Combination. Roth’s fees in both cases will be offset from the underwriting fees already recorded
between the cash underwriting fee of $2,550,000 and the deferred underwriting fee of $5,950,000, resulting in no additional incremental
fee already recorded by us.
Critical
Accounting Estimates and Policies
The
preparation of unaudited condensed financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with GAAP requires Management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date
of the unaudited condensed financial statements, and income and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results could materially
differ from those estimates. We have not identified any critical accounting estimates. The following are the critical accounting policies:
Ordinary
Shares Subject to Possible Redemption
We
account for our Ordinary Shares subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in FASB ASC Topic 480, “Distinguishing
Liabilities from Equity” (“ASC 480”). Ordinary Shares subject to mandatory redemption is classified as a liability
instrument and is measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable Ordinary Shares (including Ordinary Shares that feature redemption
rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within
our control) are classified as temporary equity. At all other times, Ordinary Shares are classified as shareholders’ equity. Our
Ordinary Shares feature certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of our control and subject to occurrence of uncertain
future events. Accordingly, Ordinary Shares subject to possible redemption are presented as temporary equity, outside of the shareholders’
deficit section of our balance sheet of the unaudited condensed financial statement included in this Report under “Item 1. Financial
Statements”.
Warrant
Instruments
We
account for Warrants as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the instruments’
specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in ASC 480 and FASB ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging” (“ASC
815”). The assessment considers whether the instruments are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, meet the definition
of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and whether the instruments meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815,
including whether the instruments are indexed to a company’s common shares and whether the instrument holders could potentially
require “net cash settlement” in a circumstance outside of a company’s control, among other conditions for equity classification.
This assessment, which requires the use of professional judgment, is conducted at the time of Warrant issuance and as of each subsequent
quarterly period end date while the instruments are outstanding. Upon review of the Warrant Agreement, Management concluded that the
Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants issued pursuant to such warrant agreement qualify for equity accounting treatment.
Net
Income per Ordinary Share
We
comply with accounting and disclosure requirements of FASB ASC Topic 260, “Earnings Per Share.” We have two classes of shares,
Class A Ordinary Shares and Class B Ordinary Shares. Income and losses are shared pro rata between the two classes of shares. Net income
per Ordinary Share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of Ordinary Shares outstanding for the period. Accretion
associated with the redeemable Ordinary Shares is excluded from income per Ordinary Share as the redemption value approximates fair value.
Recent
Accounting Pronouncements
In
June 2016, the FASB issued ASU Topic 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses
on Financial Instruments” (“ASU 2016-13”). This update requires financial assets measured at amortized cost basis to
be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. The measurement of expected credit losses is based on relevant information about
past events, including historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability
of the reported amount. Since June 2016, the FASB issued clarifying updates to the new standard including changing the effective date
for smaller reporting companies. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, and interim periods within
those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. We adopted ASU 2016-13, as of November 24, 2023. There was no effect from such adoption
to the unaudited condensed financial statement included in this Report under “Item 1. Financial Statements”.
In
August 2020, the FASB issued ASU Topic 2020-06, “Debt — Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives
and Hedging — Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40)” (“ASU 2020-06”) to simplify certain financial
instruments. ASU 2020-06 eliminates the current models that require separation of beneficial conversion and cash conversion features
from convertible instruments and simplifies the derivative scope exception guidance pertaining to equity classification of contracts
in an entity’s own equity. The new standard also introduces additional disclosures for convertible debt and freestanding instruments
that are indexed to and settled in an entity’s own equity. ASU 2020-06 amends the diluted earnings per share guidance, including
the requirement to use the if-converted method for all convertible instruments. ASU 2020-06 is effective for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 2023 and should be applied on a full or modified retrospective basis. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than fiscal
years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company adopted ASU 2020-06, as of
September 27, 2023 (inception). There was no effect from such adoption to the unaudited condensed financial statement included in this
Report under “Item 1. Financial Statements”.
Management
does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material
effect on the unaudited condensed financial statement included in this Report under “Item 1. Financial Statements”.
Item
3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
We
are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and are not required to provide the information otherwise
required under this Item.
Item
4. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation
of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Disclosure
controls and procedures are controls and other procedures 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 Management, including
our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer (together, the “Certifying Officers”), or persons performing similar
functions, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Under
the supervision and with the participation of our Management, including our Certifying Officers, we carried out an evaluation of the
effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under
the Exchange Act. Based on the foregoing, our Certifying Officers concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective
as of the end of the quarterly period ended September 30, 2024.
We
do not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all errors and all instances of fraud. Disclosure controls and
procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the
disclosure controls and procedures are met. Further, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there
are resource constraints, and the benefits must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all disclosure
controls and procedures, no evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures can provide absolute assurance that we have detected all
our control deficiencies and instances of fraud, if any. The design of disclosure controls and procedures also is based partly on certain
assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated
goals under all potential future conditions.
Changes
in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There
have been no changes to our internal control over financial reporting during the quarterly period ended September 30, 2024 that materially
affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
PART
II – OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1.
Legal Proceedings.
To
the knowledge of our Management Team, there is no material 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.
As
a smaller reporting company under Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act, we are not required to include risk factors in this Report. For additional
risks relating to our operations, other than as set forth below, see the section titled “Risk Factors” contained in our (i)
IPO Registration Statement and (ii) 2023 Annual Report. Any of these factors could result in a significant or material adverse effect
on our results of operations or financial condition. Additional risks could arise that may also affect our business or ability to consummate
an initial Business Combination. We may disclose changes to such risk factors or disclose additional risk factors from time to time in
our future filings with the SEC.
If
our initial Business Combination involves a company organized under the laws of a state of the United States, it is possible a 1% U.S.
federal excise tax will be imposed on us in connection with redemptions of our ordinary shares after or in connection with such initial
Business Combination.
On
August 16, 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 became law in the United States, which, among other things, imposes a 1% excise
tax (the “Excise Tax”) on the fair market value of certain repurchases (including certain redemptions) of stock by
publicly traded domestic (i.e., United States) corporations (and certain non-U.S. corporations treated as “surrogate foreign corporations”).
The Excise Tax will apply to stock repurchases occurring in 2023 and beyond. The amount of the Excise Tax is generally 1% of the fair
market value of the shares of stock repurchased at the time of the repurchase. The U.S. Department of the Treasury (the “Treasury”)
has been given authority to provide regulations and other guidance to carry out, and prevent the abuse or avoidance of, the Excise Tax.
In April 2024, the Treasury issued proposed regulations providing guidance with respect to the Excise Tax. Taxpayers may rely on these
proposed regulations until final regulations are issued. Under the proposed regulations, liquidating distributions made by publicly traded
domestic corporations are exempt from the Excise Tax. In addition, any redemptions that occur in the same taxable year as a liquidation
is completed will also be exempt from such tax.
As
an entity incorporated as a Cayman Islands exempted company, the 1% Excise Tax is not expected to apply to redemptions of our Class A
Ordinary Shares (absent any regulations and other additional guidance that may be issued in the future with retroactive effect).
However,
in connection with an initial Business Combination if involving a company organized under the laws of the United States, it is possible
that we domesticate and continue as a Delaware corporation prior to certain redemptions and, because our securities are trading on NYSE,
it is possible that we will be subject to the Excise Tax with respect to any subsequent redemptions, including redemptions in connection
with the initial Business Combination, that are treated as repurchases for this purpose (other than, pursuant to recently issued guidance
from the Treasury Department, redemptions in complete liquidation of the company). In all cases, the extent of the Excise Tax that may
be incurred will depend on a number of factors, including the fair market value of our stock redeemed, the extent such redemptions could
be treated as dividends and not repurchases, and the content of any regulations and other additional guidance from the Treasury that
may be issued and applicable to the redemptions. Issuances of stock by a repurchasing corporation in a year in which such corporation
repurchases stock may reduce the amount of Excise Tax imposed with respect to such repurchase. The Excise Tax is imposed on the repurchasing
corporation itself, not the shareholders from which stock is repurchased. The imposition of the Excise Tax as a result of redemptions
in connection with the initial Business Combination could, however, reduce the amount of cash available to pay redemptions or reduce
the cash contribution to the target business in connection with our initial Business Combination, which could cause the other shareholders
of the combined company to economically bear the impact of such Excise Tax.
