Overview


We are a blank check company incorporated in Delaware on September 8, 2020 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"). Our sponsor is HAAC Sponsor, LLC ("Sponsor").

The registration statement for our Initial Public Offering ("Initial Public Offering") was declared effective on November 12, 2020. On November 17, 2020, we consummated the Initial Public Offering of 52,500,000 SAILSM Securities, including 2,500,000 SAILSM Securities as a result of the underwriters' exercise in part of their over-allotment option. The SAILSM Securities were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per SAILSM Security, generating gross proceeds of $525.0 million, and incurring offering costs of approximately $29.8 million, inclusive of approximately $18.4 million in deferred underwriting commissions.





                                       25




Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, we consummated the private placement ("Private Placement") of 11,666,666 warrants (each, a "Private Placement Warrant" and collectively, the "Private Placement Warrants"), including 333,333 Private Placement Warrants as a result of the underwriters' exercise in part of their over-allotment option, at a price of $1.50 per Private Placement Warrant in a private placement with our Sponsor and certain directors of our Company (the "Private Placement Warrants Purchasers"), generating gross proceeds of $17.5 million (Note 4).

Upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering and the Private Placement, $525.0 million ($10.00 per SAILSM Security) of the net proceeds of the sale of the SAILSM Securities in the Initial Public Offering and the Private Placement were placed in a trust account ("Trust Account") located in the United States with Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company acting as trustee, and held as cash or invested only in U.S. "government securities," within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act, with a maturity of 185 days or less, or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under the Investment Company Act, which invest only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations, as determined by us, until the earlier of: (i) the completion of a Business Combination and (ii) the distribution of the Trust Account as described below.

If we are unable to complete a Business Combination within 24 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering, or November 17, 2022 and stockholders do not approve an amendment to the certificate of incorporation to extend this date, we will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem the Public Shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, of $10.00, and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the remaining stockholders and the board of directors (the "Board"), liquidate and dissolve, subject in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii), to our obligations under Delaware law to provide for claims of creditors and in all cases subject to the other requirements of applicable law.





Results of Operations


Our entire activity from September 8, 2020 (inception) through March 31, 2021, was in preparation for an Initial Public Offering, and since our Initial Public Offering, our activity has been limited to the search for a prospective initial Business Combination. We will not generate any operating revenues until the closing and completion of our initial Business Combination.

For the three months ended March 31, 2021, we had a net loss of approximately $2.1 million, which consisted of approximately $1.6 million in change of fair value of derivative warrant liabilities, and approximately $152,000 of gain on investments held in a Trust Account, partially offset $3.6 million of general and administrative expenses, approximately $302,000 of general and administrative expenses - related party, and approximately $32,000 of income tax expense.

Liquidity and Going Concern



As of March 31, 2021, the Company had $3.1 million in cash and working capital of approximately $1.6 million.

Prior to September 30, 2020, our liquidity needs were satisfied through a payment of $25,000 from the Initial Stockholders in exchange for the issuance of the Alignment Shares and proceeds from a loan of $300,000 pursuant to a note agreement from the Company's Sponsor (the "Note"). We repaid the Note in full on November 18, 2020. Following the consummation of the Initial Public Offering and Private Placement, our liquidity needs have been satisfied with the proceeds from the Private Placement not held in the Trust Account. In addition, in order to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, our Sponsor may, but is not obligated to, provide us with working capital loans. As of the date of this filing, there were no amounts outstanding under any working capital loans.

In connection with our assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with ASU 2014-15, "Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity's Ability to Continue as a Going Concern," as of March 31, 2021, we do not have sufficient liquidity to meet our obligations in the next twelve months. However, we have determined that we have access to funds from our Sponsor that are sufficient to fund our working capital needs until the earlier of the consummation of an Initial Business Combination or a minimum one year from the date of issuance of these unaudited condensed financial statements.





Contractual Obligations


We do not have any long-term debt obligations, capital lease obligations, operating lease obligations, purchase obligations or long-term liabilities, other than for an agreement to pay our Sponsor $10,000 per month for office space, secretarial and administrative support provided to members of our management team. In addition, each independent director will receive quarterly cash compensation of $62,500 (or $250,000 in the aggregate per year).





Critical Accounting Policies


This management's discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our unaudited condensed financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of these unaudited condensed financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities in our unaudited 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.





                                       27




Investments Held in the Trust Account

Our portfolio of investments held in the Trust Account is comprised of U.S. government securities, within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act, with a maturity of 185 days or less, or investments in money market funds that invest in U.S. government securities, or a combination thereof. Our investments held in the Trust Account are classified as trading securities. Trading securities are presented on the unaudited condensed balance sheet at fair value at the end of each reporting period. Gains and losses resulting from the change in fair value of these investments are included in income from investments held in Trust Account in the unaudited condensed statement of operations. The estimated fair values of investments held in the Trust Account are determined using available market information.

Class A Common Stock Subject to Possible Redemption

The shares of Class A common stock subject to mandatory redemption (if any) are classified as liability instruments and are measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable shares of Class A common stock (including shares of Class A common stock 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 the Company's control) are classified as temporary equity. At all other times, shares of Class A common stock are classified as stockholders' equity. The Company's Class A common stock features certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company's control and subject to occurrence of uncertain future events, Accordingly, at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2021, 42,857,615 and 43,070,607 shares of Class A common stock subject to possible redemption are presented at redemption value as temporary equity, outside of the stockholders' equity section of the Company's balance sheet, respectively.

Derivative Warrant Liabilities

We do not use derivative instruments to hedge exposures to cash flow, market or foreign currency risks. We evaluate all of our financial instruments, including issued stock purchase warrants, to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives, pursuant to the Financial Accounting Standards Board's ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 480 "Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity" ("ASC 480") and FASB ASC Topic 815, "Derivatives and Hedging" ("ASC 815"). The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is re-assessed at the end of each reporting period. Derivative warrant liabilities are classified as non-current liabilities as their liquidation is not reasonably expected to require the use of current assets or require the creation of current liabilities.

We issued 13,125,000 warrants to purchase Class A common stock, including Over-Allotment Units, to investors in our Initial Public Offering and issued 11,666,666 Private Placement Warrants. All of our outstanding warrants are recognized as derivative liabilities in accordance with ASC 815. Accordingly, we recognize the warrant instruments as liabilities at fair value and adjust the instruments to fair value at each reporting period. The liabilities are subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet date until exercised, and any change in fair value is recognized in our statement of operations. The fair value of Public Warrants was calculated using an option pricing model. The inputs utilized to calculate the value of an option pricing model are (i) the value of the underlying asset, (ii) the exercise price, (iii) the risk-free rate, (iv) the volatility of the underlying asset, (v) the dividend yield of the underlying asset, and (vi) the assumed time to a liquidity event. The fair value of Private Warrants was calculated using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model. Derivative warrant liabilities are classified as non-current liabilities as their liquidation is not reasonably expected to require the use of current assets or require the creation of current liabilities.

Net Income (Loss) Per Share of Common Stock

Net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted-average number of common stock outstanding during the periods. Share settlement of our warrants to purchase an aggregate of 24,791,666 shares of Class A nonredeemable common stock at a price of $11.50 was presumed for the calculation of diluted earnings per Class A and Class B nonredeemable share because it is more dilutive than the cash settlement alternative. Under this assumption, the contract is settled in common shares, and the effect of the liability classification (change in fair value of derivative warrant liability) is reversed as a numerator adjustment. Potentially dilutive weighted average share of 773,521 are included in the denominator.

Our unaudited condensed statement of operations includes a presentation of income (loss) per share for common stock subject to redemption in a manner similar to the two-class method of income (loss) per share. Net income per share of common stock, basic and diluted for shares of Class A redeemable common stock is calculated by dividing the income earned on investments held in the Trust Account of approximately $152,000, net of applicable taxes and working capital amounts available to be withdrawn from the Trust Account of approximately $32,000, which was a net of approximately $120,000 for the period for the three-month ended March 31, 2021, by the weighted average number of Class A redeemable common stock outstanding for the period. There are no securities that can convert into redeemable Class A shares which would cause dilution and share in the earnings.

Net loss per share of common stock, basic and diluted for shares of Class B nonredeemable common stock is calculated by dividing the net loss of approximately $2.1 million, less income attributable to Class A redeemable common stock by the weighted average number of Class B nonredeemable common stock outstanding for the period. Net loss per share of common stock, diluted for shares of Class A nonredeemable common stock, as discussed above, and Class B nonredeemable common stock, is calculated by dividing the net loss of approximately $3.9 million (including the $1.6 million of the effect of liability classification) less income attributable to Class A redeemable common stock, divided by the weighted average of Class A nonredeemable common stock and Class B nonredeemable common stock outstanding for the period.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 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): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity's Own Equity ("ASU 2020-06"), which simplifies accounting for convertible instruments by removing major separation models required under current GAAP. The ASU also removes certain settlement conditions that are required for equity-linked contracts to qualify for the derivative scope exception, and it simplifies the diluted earnings per share calculation in certain areas. We adopted ASU 2020-06 on January 1, 2021. Adoption of the ASU did not impact our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

We do not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards if currently adopted would have a material effect on our financial statements.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of March 31, 2021, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as defined in Item 303(a)(4)(ii) of Regulation S-K.

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 condensed 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.
