Overview


We are a blank check company incorporated on March 17, 2021 as a Cayman Islands exempted company for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities. We intend to effectuate our initial Business Combination using cash from the proceeds of our Initial Public Offering and the private placement of the Private Placement Warrants, the proceeds of the sale of our shares in connection with our initial Business Combination (pursuant to forward purchase agreements or backstop agreements we may enter into), 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 or other sources.

The issuance of additional shares in a business combination:

? may significantly dilute the equity interest of investors in our Initial Public

Offering, which dilution would increase if the anti-dilution provisions in the

Class B ordinary shares resulted in the issuance of Class A ordinary shares on

a greater than one-to-one basis upon conversion of the Class B ordinary shares;

? may subordinate the rights of holders of Class A ordinary shares if preference

shares are issued with rights senior to those afforded our Class A ordinary


   shares;



? could cause a change in control if a substantial number of our Class A ordinary

shares are issued, which may affect, among other things, our ability to use our

net operating loss carry forwards, if any, and could result in the resignation

or removal of our present officers and directors;

? may have the effect of delaying or preventing a change of control of us by

diluting the share ownership or voting rights of a person seeking to obtain


   control of us;



? may adversely affect prevailing market prices for our units, Class A ordinary

shares and/or warrants; and

? may not result in adjustment to the exercise price of our warrants.






                                       19




Similarly, if we issue debt or otherwise incur significant debt, it could result in:

? default and foreclosure on our assets if our operating revenues after an

initial business combination are insufficient to repay our debt obligations;

? acceleration of our obligations to repay the indebtedness even if we make all

principal and interest payments when due if we breach certain covenants that

require the maintenance of certain financial ratios or reserves without a

waiver or renegotiation of that covenant;

? our immediate payment of all principal and accrued interest, if any, if the


   debt is payable on demand;



? our inability to obtain necessary additional financing if the debt contains

covenants restricting our ability to obtain such financing while the debt is


   outstanding;



? our inability to pay dividends on our Class A ordinary shares;

? using a substantial portion of our cash flow to pay principal and interest on

our debt, which will reduce the funds available for dividends on our Class A

ordinary shares if declared, expenses, capital expenditures, acquisitions and

other general corporate purposes;

? limitations on our flexibility in planning for and reacting to changes in our

business and in the industry in which we operate;

? increased vulnerability to adverse changes in general economic, industry and

competitive conditions and adverse changes in government regulation; and

? limitations on our ability to borrow additional amounts for expenses, capital

expenditures, acquisitions, debt service requirements, execution of our

strategy and other purposes and other disadvantages compared to our competitors


   who have less debt.



As indicated in the accompanying financial statements, as of September 30, 2022, we had approximately $1.3 million in cash, and working capital deficit of approximately $49,000. Further, we expect to incur significant costs in the pursuit of our initial Business Combination. We cannot assure you that our plans to raise capital or to complete our initial Business Combination will be successful.

On August 22, 2022, we signed a memorandum of understanding (the "MoU") with Biolog-ID, a société anonyme organized under the laws of France ("Biolog-id"), with respect to our contemplated merger with and into Biolog-id (the "Merger") with Biolog-id as the continuing company following closing of the Merger and related transactions pursuant to the "Business Combination Agreement" in the form attached to the MoU. Under French law, no commitment with respect to the proposed Merger could be agreed prior to Biolog-id completing the consultation process with its social and economic committee (comité social et économique) (the "Works Council"). Biolog-id completed the Works Council consultation process and on August 26, 2022, we entered into a Business Combination Agreement with Biolog-id (the "Business Combination Agreement").

By virtue of the Merger, each of our ordinary shares issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger (after giving effect to specified events) would be automatically cancelled and extinguished and exchanged for a number of ordinary shares of Biolog-id (received in the form of American Depositary Shares (ADSs)), as determined in accordance with the exchange ratio described in the Business Combination Agreement. The terms of the Business Combination Agreement, containing customary representations and warranties, covenants, closing conditions, and other terms relating to the Merger and the other transactions contemplated thereby, are further described in our Current Reports on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on August 23, 2022 and August 26, 2022.





Results of Operations



Our entire activity since inception up to September 30, 2022 was in preparation for our formation and our Initial Public Offering, and, subsequent to our Initial Public Offering, identifying a target company for a Business Combination. We will not be generating any operating revenues until the closing and completion of our initial Business Combination, at the earliest.





                                       20




For the three months ended September 30, 2022, we had a net income of approximately $4,700, which consisted of income from investments held in the Trust Account of approximately $1.1 million, offset by general and administrative expenses of approximately $1.1 million and $30,000 in general and administrative expenses for related party.

For the three months ended September 30, 2021, we had a net loss of approximately $3,000 consisting of general and administrative expenses.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we had a net loss of approximately $287,000, which consisted of general and administrative expenses of approximately $1.7 million and $90,000 in general and administrative expenses for related party, offset by income from investments held in the Trust Account of approximately $1.5 million.

For the period from March 17, 2021 (inception) through September 30, 2021, we had a net loss of approximately $35,000 consisting of general and administrative expenses.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Prior to the completion of our Initial Public Offering, our liquidity needs were satisfied through (i) $25,000 paid by our Sponsor to cover certain expenses in exchange for the issuance of the Founder Shares to our Sponsor and (ii) the receipt of a loan of up to $500,000 from our Sponsor under the Note. Prior to the completion of our Initial Public Offering, we borrowed approximately $453,000 under the Note, which was fully repaid in March 2022. The net proceeds from (i) the sale of the units in our Initial Public Offering, after deducting non-reimbursed offering expenses of approximately $738,000, underwriting commissions of $2,530,000 (excluding deferred underwriting commissions of $13,915,000), and (ii) the sale of the Private Placement Warrants for a purchase price of $8,875,000 was $258,645,000. Of that amount, $257,148,600 is held in the Trust Account, which includes the deferred underwriting commissions described above. The proceeds held in the Trust Account are invested only in U.S. government 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 U.S. government treasury obligations. The remaining $1,832,700 is held outside of the Trust Account.

We intend to use substantially all of the funds held in the Trust Account, including any amounts representing interest and other income earned on the Trust Account (less taxes payable and deferred underwriting commissions), to complete our initial Business Combination. We may withdraw interest income (if any) to pay income taxes, if any. Our annual income tax obligations will depend on the amount of interest and other income earned on the amounts held in the Trust Account. We expect the interest income earned on the amount in the Trust Account (if any) will be sufficient to pay our income taxes. To the extent that our equity 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.

Prior to the completion of our initial Business Combination, we have available to us the $1,832,700 of proceeds held outside the Trust Account, as well as certain funds from loans from our Sponsor, its affiliates or members of our management team. We will use these funds to primarily 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.





                                       21




We do not believe we will need to raise additional funds following our Initial Public Offering in order to meet the expenditures required for operating our business prior to our initial Business Combination, other than funds available from loans from our Sponsor, its affiliates or members of our management team. However, if our estimates of the costs of identifying a target business, undertaking in-depth due diligence and negotiating an initial 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. In order to fund working capital deficiencies or finance transaction costs in connection with any intended initial 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. If we complete our initial Business Combination, we may repay such loaned amounts out of the proceeds of the Trust Account released to us. In the event that our initial 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 warrants of the post-Business Combination entity at a price of $1.00 per warrant at the option of the lender. The warrants would be identical to the Private Placement Warrants. The terms of such loans, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such loans. Prior to the completion of our initial Business Combination, we do not expect to seek loans from parties other than our Sponsor, its affiliates or our management team as we do not believe third parties will be willing to loan such funds and provide a waiver against any and all rights to seek access to funds in our Trust Account.

We expect our primary liquidity requirements during that period to include approximately $300,000 for legal, accounting, due diligence, travel and other expenses associated with structuring, negotiating and documenting successful business combinations; $100,000 for legal and accounting fees related to regulatory reporting obligations; $800,000 for directors and officers insurance premiums; $120,000 for office space, administrative and support services; $100,000 for Nasdaq and other regulatory fees; and $430,000 for general working capital that will be used for miscellaneous expenses and reserves. These amounts are estimates and may differ materially from our actual expenses.

Moreover, we may need to obtain additional financing to complete our initial Business Combination, either because the transaction requires more cash than is available from the proceeds held in our Trust Account, or because we become obligated to redeem a significant number of our public shares upon completion of the Business Combination, in which case we may issue additional securities or incur debt in connection with such Business Combination. If we have not consummated our initial Business Combination within the required time period because we do not have sufficient funds available to us, we will be forced to cease operations and liquidate the Trust Account.

Based on the foregoing, we believe that we will have sufficient working capital and borrowing capacity from the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor, or certain of our officers and directors to meet our needs through the consummation of a Business Combination. However, in connection with our assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board's ("FASB") Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2014-15, "Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity's Ability to Continue as a Going Concern," we have determined that liquidity needs, the mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. No adjustments have been made to the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities should we be required to liquidate after December 13, 2022. The financial statements do not include any adjustment that might be necessary if we are unable to continue as a going concern.

Commitments and Contractual Obligations

Registration and Shareholder Rights

The holders of the Founder Shares, Private Placement Warrants and any warrants that may be issued upon conversion of Working Capital Loans (and any Class A ordinary shares issuable upon the exercise of the Private Placement Warrants and warrants that may be issued upon conversion of Working Capital Loans) are entitled to registration rights pursuant to a registration and shareholder rights agreement signed upon the effective date of the Initial Public Offering. The holders of these securities are entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short form demands, that we register such securities. In addition, the holders have certain "piggy-back" registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to the Company's completion of the initial Business Combination. However, the registration and shareholder rights agreement provides that we will not permit any registration statement filed under the Securities Act to become effective until termination of the applicable lock-up periods with respect to such securities. We will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.





                                       22





Underwriting Agreement


The underwriter was entitled to an underwriting discount of $0.10 per Unit, or $2.5 million in the aggregate (including over-allotment), of which $2.2 million was paid upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering and $0.3 million was paid upon the exercise of the over-allotment option. In addition, $0.55 per unit, or $13.9 million in the aggregate, will be payable to the underwriter for deferred underwriting commissions. The deferred underwriting commissions will become payable to the underwriter 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 and Estimates

This management's discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our condensed financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of our condensed financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities in our condensed financial statements. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and judgments, including those related to fair value of financial instruments and accrued expenses. We base our estimates on historical experience, known trends and events and various other factors that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. The Company determined that there have been no material changes to the critical accounting policies disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2021, filed with the SEC on April 15, 2022.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-03, ASC Subtopic 820 "Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions." The ASU amends ASC 820 to clarify that a contractual sales restriction is not considered in measuring an equity security at fair value and to introduce new disclosure requirements for equity securities subject to contractual sale restrictions that are measured at fair value. The ASU applies to both holders and issuers of equity and equity-linked securities measured at fair value. The amendments in this ASU are effective for the Company in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted for both interim and annual financial statements that have not yet been issued or made available for issuance. The Company is still evaluating the impact of this pronouncement on the condensed financial statements.

Our management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards updates, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements.





JOBS Act


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

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