Overview
We are a blank check company formed under the laws of the State of Delaware on
September 28, 2020 for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock
exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar Business
Combination with one or more target businesses. We intend to effectuate our
initial Business Combination using cash from the proceeds of our Initial Public
Offering and the concurrent private placement, the proceeds of the sale of our
shares in connection with our initial Business Combination, shares issued to the
owners of the target, debt issued to bank or other lenders or the owners of the
target, or a combination of the foregoing.
We expect to continue to incur significant costs in the pursuit of our
acquisition plans. We cannot assure you that our plans to complete a Business
Combination will be successful.
Results of Operations
We have neither engaged in any operations nor generated any revenues to date.
Our only activities from inception through June 30, 2021 were organizational
activities, those necessary to prepare for the Initial Public Offering,
described below, and, subsequent to the Initial Public Offering, searching and
identifying a target company for a Business Combination. We do not expect to
generate any operating revenues until after the completion of our initial
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 June 30, 2021, we had a net loss of $4,094,328, which
consists of formation and operational costs of $278,283, a change in the fair
value warrant liabilities $3,834,000, offset by interest income on marketable
securities held in the Trust Account of $17,955.
For the six months ended June 30, 2021, we had a net income of $2,894,846, which
consists of a change in the fair value warrant liabilities $4,384,000 and
interest income on marketable securities held in the Trust Account of $55,893,
offset by transaction cost allocable to warrants of $1,029,081 and formation and
operational costs of $515,966.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
On January 12, 2021, we consummated the Initial Public Offering of 40,250,000
units (the "Units" and, with respect to the Class A common stock included in the
Units sold, the "Public Shares"), which included the full exercise by the
underwriters of their over-allotment option to purchase an additional 5,250,000
Units, at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $402,500,000.
Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, we consummated
the sale of 800,000 units (the "Placement Units") to Epiphany Technology Sponsor
LLC (the "Sponsor") and Cantor Fitzgerald & Co. ("Cantor") at a price of $10.00
per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $8,000,000.
Following the Initial Public Offering, the full exercise of the over-allotment
option and the sale of the Placement Units, a total of $402,500,000 was placed
in the Trust Account. We incurred $21,598,082 in transaction costs, including
$6,000,000 of underwriting fees, net of $10,000,000 reimbursed from the
underwriters, $15,137,500 of deferred underwriting fees and $460,582 of other
offering costs.
For the six months ended June 30, 2021, cash used in operating activities was
$832,640. Net income of $2,894,846 was affected by changes in the fair value of
warrant liabilities of $4,384,000, interest earned on investments and marketable
securities held in the Trust Account of $55,893 and transaction costs allocable
to warrants of $1,029,081. Changes in operating assets and liabilities used
$316,674 of cash from operating activities.
As of June 30, 2021, we had investments held in the Trust Account of
$402,555,893. Interest income on the balance in the Trust Account may be used by
us to pay taxes. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, we did not
withdraw interest earned on the Trust Account to pay for our franchise tax
obligations. We intend to use substantially all of the funds held in the Trust
Account, including any amounts representing interest earned on the Trust Account
(less deferred underwriting commissions) to complete our initial Business
Combination. To the extent that our capital stock or debt is used, in whole or
in part, as consideration to complete our initial Business Combination, the
remaining proceeds held in the Trust Account will be used as working capital to
finance the operations of the target business or businesses, make other
acquisitions and pursue our growth strategies.
As of June 30, 2021, we had $732,778 of cash held outside of the Trust Account.
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,
and 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
would 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 units
identical to the Placement Units, at a price of $10.00 per unit at the option of
the lender. The units would be identical to the Placement Units.

We do not believe we will need to raise additional funds in order to meet the
expenditures required for operating our business. However, if our 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, we may have insufficient funds available to operate
our business prior to our initial Business Combination. Moreover, we may need to
obtain additional financing either to complete our initial Business Combination
or because we become obligated to redeem a significant number of our Public
Shares upon consummation of our initial Business Combination, in which case we
may issue additional securities or incur debt in connection with such initial
Business Combination. Subject to compliance with applicable securities laws, we
would only complete such financing simultaneously with the completion of our
initial Business Combination. If we are unable to complete our initial Business
Combination because we do not have sufficient funds available to us, we will be
forced to cease operations and liquidate the Trust Account. In addition,
following our initial Business Combination, if cash on hand is insufficient, we
may need to obtain additional financing in order to meet our obligations.
Off-Balance
Sheet Arrangements
We did not have any
off-balance
sheet arrangements as of June 30, 2021.
Contractual Obligations
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 our Sponsor a monthly fee of $15,000 for office space, utilities
and secretarial and administrative support. We began incurring these fees on
January 12, 2021 and will continue to incur these fees monthly until the earlier
of the completion of the initial Business Combination and our liquidation.
The underwriters are entitled to a deferred fee of (i) 3.5% of the gross
proceeds of the initial 35,000,000 units sold in our initial public offering, or
$12,250,000, and (ii) 5.5% of the gross proceeds from the units sold pursuant to
the over-allotment option, or $2,887,500. 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.
Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of condensed financial statements and related disclosures in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America 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 financial statements, and income and expenses
during the periods reported. Actual results could materially differ from those
estimates. We have identified the following critical accounting policies.
Warrant Liability
We account for our warrants in accordance with the guidance contained in
Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC")
815-40
under which the warrants that do not meet the criteria for equity treatment and
must be recorded as liabilities. Accordingly, we classify our warrants as
liabilities at their fair value and adjust the warrants to fair value at each
reporting period. This liability is subject to
re-measurement
at each balance sheets date until exercised, and any change in fair value is
recognized in our statements of operations. The fair value of our placement
warrants was determined using a Black-Scholes option pricing model. The public
warrants for periods where no observable traded price was available are valued
using a Monte Carlo simulation model. For periods subsequent to the detachment
of the public warrants from the Units, the public warrant quoted market price
was used as the fair value as of each relevant date.
Class A Common Stock Subject to Possible Redemption
We account for our Class A common stock subject to possible redemption in
accordance with the guidance in the Financial Accounting Standards Board's
("FASB") ASC Topic 480 "Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity." Shares of
Class A common stock subject to mandatory redemption are classified as a
liability instrument and are measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable
common stock (including common stock that feature redemption rights that is
either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the
occurrence of uncertain events not solely within our control) is classified as
temporary equity. At all other times, common stock is classified as
stockholders' equity. Our Class A common stock features certain redemption
rights that are considered to be outside of our control and subject to
occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, shares of Class A common
stock subject to possible redemption are presented as temporary equity, outside
of the stockholders' equity section of our balance sheet.

Net Income (Loss) per Common Share
We apply the
two-class
method in calculating earnings per share. Net income per common share, basic and
diluted, for Class A redeemable common stock is calculated by dividing the
interest income earned on the Trust Account, net of applicable franchise and
income taxes, by the weighted average number of Class A redeemable common stock
outstanding for the period presented. Net income (loss) per common share, basic
and diluted, for Class A and B
non-redeemable
common stock is calculated by dividing the net income, less income attributable
to Class A redeemable common stock, by the weighted average number of Class A
and B
non-redeemable
common stock outstanding for the period presented.
Recent Accounting Standards
In August 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Accounting Standards Update ("ASU")
2020-06,
Debt - Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic
470-20)
and Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts in Entity's Own Equity (Subtopic
815-40)
("ASU
2020-06")
to simplify accounting for 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 January 1, 2022 and should be applied on a full or modified
retrospective basis, with early adoption permitted beginning on January 1, 2021.
The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adoption of ASU
2020-06.
Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective,
accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on our
condensed financial statements.
