The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto contained elsewhere in this report. Certain information contained in the discussion and analysis set forth below includes forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties.





Overview


We were formed on February 19, 2021 for the purpose of entering into a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or other similar business combination with one or more target businesses. Our efforts to identify a prospective target business will not be limited to any particular industry or geographic region. We intend to utilize cash derived from the proceeds of the IPO in effecting our initial business combination.

We are an emerging growth company and, as such, we are subject to all of the risks associated with emerging growth companies.

We presently have no revenue. All activities for the period from February 19, 2021 (inception) through December 31, 2022 relate to the formation and the IPO and seeking of a target business. We will have no operations other than the active solicitation of a target business with which to complete a business combination, and we will not generate any operating revenue until after the Company's initial business combination, at the earliest. We will have non-operating income in the form of interest income on cash and cash equivalents from the proceeds derived from the IPO.

On March 11, 2022, we consummated the IPO of 6,900,000 Public Units, which includes the full exercise of the over-allotment option by the underwriter in the IPO, at a price of $10.00 per Public Unit, generating gross proceeds of $69,000,000. Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, we consummated the sale of 351,500 Private Units, at a price of $10.00 per Private Unit, in a private placement to our sponsor, generating gross proceeds of $3,515,000.

Upon the consummation of the IPO and the underwriter's full exercise of the over-allotment option, and associated private placements, $70,035,000 of cash was placed in the Trust Account. This amount equals 6,900,000 ordinary shares subject to possible redemption multiplied by redemption value of $10.15 per share.

As indicated in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, as of December 31, 2022, we had $44,918 in cash held outside our Trust Account available for working capital purposes.

On September 9, 2022, we entered into a merger agreement (the "Merger Agreement") with certain parties aiming to acquire 100% of the equity securities of Nature's Miracle, Inc. ("Nature's Miracle").

On November 14, 2022, LBBB Merger Corp., the Company's wholly owned subsidiary, filed a Form S-4 containing the registration statement with respect to the proposed business combination with Nature's Miracle.

On December 28, 2022, LBBB Merger Corp. filed a Form S-4/A containing amendment No. 1 to the registration statement to address comments LBBB Merger Corp. received from the SEC on December 14, 2022, regarding the registration statement.

On January 20, 2023, LBBB Merger Corp. filed a Form S-4/A containing amendment No. 2 to the registration statement to address comments LBBB Merger Corp. received from the SEC on January 12, 2023.

On February 10, 2023, the Company issued an unsecured promissory note in the aggregate principal amount of $100,000 to RedOne Investment Limited, the Company's sponsor. The principal shall be payable promptly on the earlier date on which either the Company consummates an initial business combination or has received financing from other parties with no interest accrued, and the amount of $100,000 does not have the conversion feature of converting into additional Private Units, based on the description of the promissory note.

On March 9, 2023, we held an Extraordinary General Meeting (the "General Meeting") of shareholders. In the General Meeting, shareholders approved to amend our Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association (the "Charter Amendment"), and to extend the time for us to complete a business combination for an additional three (3) months, from March 11, 2023 to June 11, 2023 (the "Extension"). The amended Charter Amendment was filed with the Registrar of companies in the Cayman Islands on March 10, 2023 and was effective on that date. In connection with the approval of the Extension, we deposited into the Trust Account $250,000 in accordance with the terms of the Charter Amendment. In connection with the General Meeting, shareholders elected to redeem a total of 2,767,411 ordinary shares. An aggregate payment of $28,707,673 was distributed from the Company's Trust Account because of this redemption.

On March 10, 2023, we entered into a loan agreement as the borrower with a third party lender, our sponsor and Nature's Miracle Inc. ("NMI") as the guarantors. The principal amount was $250,000 with no interest bearing and was repayable on or before June 11, 2023 (the "Repayment Date"). We shall cause to issue 25,000 bonus shares to the lender of the surviving company when completing the proposed business combination with NMI, no later than the Repayment Date.

On March 28, 2023, the Company issued an unsecured promissory note in the aggregate principal amount of $100,000 to RedOne Investment Limited, the Company's sponsor. The principal shall be payable promptly on the earlier date on which either the Company consummates an initial business combination or has received financing from other parties with no interest accrued, and the amount of $100,000 does not have the conversion feature of converting into additional Private Units, based on the description of the promissory note.





                                       8




We cannot assure you that our plans to complete our initial business combination will be successful. If we are unable to complete our initial business combination within 15 months from the date of the IPO, we will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than five business days thereafter, redeem 100% of the outstanding public shares and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the remaining holders of ordinary shares and our board of directors, liquidate and dissolve. In the event of liquidation, the holders of the founder shares and Private Units will not participate in any redemption distribution with respect to their founder shares or Private Units, until all of the claims of any redeeming shareholders and creditors are fully satisfied (and then only from funds held outside the Trust Account).





Results of Operations



Our entire activity from February 19, 2021 (inception) up to the consummation of the IPO was in preparation for the IPO. Since the IPO, our activity has been limited to the evaluation of business combination candidates, and we will not be generating any operating revenues until the closing and completion of our initial business combination. We expect to generate small amounts of non-operating income in the form of interest income on cash and marketable securities held in Trust Account. We will incur expenses as a result of being a public company (for legal, financial reporting, accounting and auditing compliance), as well as for consummating the proposed business combination.

For the year ended December 31, 2022, we had a net income of $253,602. We incurred $754,524 of general and administrative expenses and earned $1,008,126 of interest income from investments in our Trust Account.

For the period from February 19, 2021 (inception) to December 31, 2021, we had a net loss of $85,388, which consisted of $85,388 in formation, general and administrative expenses.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of December 31, 2022, we had $44,918 in cash held outside our Trust Account available for our working capital purposes.

Prior to the consummation of the IPO, our liquidity needs had been satisfied through a payment from the sponsor of $25,000 for the founder shares, the loan under an unsecured promissory note from the sponsor of $500,000. The promissory note from the sponsor was converted into part of the subscription of $3,515,000 private placement on March 11, 2022.

Upon the consummation of the IPO and underwriter's full exercise of over-allotment option on March 11, 2022, and associated private placements, $70,035,000 of cash was placed in the Trust Account. As of December 31, 2022, an aggregate of $71,043,126 was held in the Trust Account in money market funds that invest in cash, U.S. Treasury Bills, notes, and other obligations issued or guaranteed as to principal and interest by the U.S. Treasury.

In order to meet its working capital needs following the consummation of the IPO, the Company's initial shareholders, officers and directors or their affiliates 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. Each working capital loan would be evidenced by a promissory note and would either be paid upon consummation of the Company's initial business combination, without interest, or, at the lender's discretion, up to certain amount of the working capital loan may be converted upon consummation of the Company's business combination into additional private units at a price of $10.00 per unit. If the Company does not complete a business combination, the working capital loan will only be repaid with funds not held in the Trust Account and only to the extent available (see Note 5 of the Notes to the Financial Statements included in this report). To date, an aggregate principal amount of $200,000 was outstanding and evidenced by an unsecured promissory note issued to RedOne Investment Limited, the Company's sponsor. The principal shall be payable promptly on the earlier date on which either the Company consummates an initial business combination or has received financing from other parties with no interest accrued, and the amount of $200,000 does not have the conversion feature of converting into additional private units, based on the description of the promissory note.

In addition, an aggregate principal amount of $250,000 under a loan agreement with a third party lender was outstanding as of the date this report was issued. The loan is guaranteed by the Company's sponsor and Nature's Miracle Inc. ("NMI") with no interest bearing and is repayable on or before June 11, 2023 (the "Repayment Date"). The Company shall cause to issue 25,000 bonus shares to the lender of the surviving company when completing the proposed business combination with NMI, no later than the Repayment Date. The amount of $250,000 was deposited into the Company's Trust Account in accordance with the term of the Company's Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association (the "Charter Amendment").

Based on the foregoing, management believes that we will have sufficient working capital and borrowing capacity to meet our needs through the earlier of the consummation of a business combination or one year from this filing. Over this time period, we will be using these funds for paying existing accounts payable, staying as a public company and consummating the business combination.

If our estimates of the working capital needs 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 consummate our initial business combination or because we become obligated to convert 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 business combination. Subject to compliance with applicable securities laws, we would only consummate such financing simultaneously with the consummation of our initial business combination. Following our initial business combination, if cash on hand is insufficient, we may need to obtain additional financing in order to meet our obligations.





                                       9




We performed an assessment on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern in accordance with Financial Accounting Standard Board's Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2014-15, "Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity's Ability to Continue as a Going Concern". There is no assurance that we will be able to consummate the initial business combination within 15 months from the date of the IPO. In the event that we fail to consummate business combination within the required period, we will face mandatory liquidation and dissolution subject to certain obligations under applicable laws or regulations. This uncertainty raises substantial doubt about our ability as a going concern one year from the date the financial statement is issued. No adjustments have been made to the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities regarding the possibility of us not continuing as a going concern, as a result of failing to consummate business combination within 15 months from the date of the IPO. Management plans to continue its efforts to consummate a business combination within 15 months from the date of the IPO.





Critical Accounting Policies


Management's discussion and analysis of our results of operations and liquidity and capital resources are based on our audited financial information. We describe our significant accounting policies in Note 2 - Significant Accounting Policies, of the Notes to Financial Statements included in this report. The preparation of our consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements. Judgments are based on historical experience, terms of existing contracts, industry trends and information available from outside sources, as appropriate. However, by their nature, judgments are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty, and, therefore, actual results could differ from our estimates.

Offering Costs Associated with the IPO

Offering costs consist of underwriting, legal, accounting, registration and other expenses incurred through the balance sheet date that are directly related to the IPO. As of March 11, 2022, offering costs totaled $5,614,686. The amount was consisted of $1,380,000 of underwriting commissions, $2,415,000 of deferred underwriting commissions, and $1,819,686 of other offering costs (which includes $1,262,250 of representative shares, as described in Note 8 of the Notes to the Financial Statements included in this report). The Company complies with the requirements of the ASC 340-10-S99-1 and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin ("SAB") Topic 5A - "Expenses of Offering". Offering costs were charged to shareholders' equity upon the completion of the IPO. The Company allocates offering costs between public shares, public warrants and public rights based on the estimated fair values of them at the date of issuance. Accordingly, $5,109,364 was allocated to public shares and was charged to temporary equity, and a sum of $505,322 was allocated to public warrants and public rights, and was charged to shareholders' equity.

Ordinary Shares Subject to Possible Redemption

The Company accounts for its ordinary shares subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in FASB ASC Topic 480 "Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity." Ordinary shares subject to mandatory redemption (if any) are classified as a liability instrument and are 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 the Company's control) are classified as temporary equity. At all other times, ordinary shares are classified as shareholders' equity. The Company's public shares feature certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company's control and subject to occurrence of uncertain future events. The Company recognizes changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and adjusts the carrying value of redeemable ordinary shares to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Increases or decreases in the carrying amount of redeemable ordinary shares are affected by charges against additional paid in capital or accumulated deficit if additional paid in capital equals to zero. Accordingly, as of December 31, 2022, ordinary shares subject to possible redemption are presented at redemption value of $10.296 per share as temporary equity, outside of the shareholders' equity section of the Company's balance sheet.

Net Income (Loss) per Share

We comply with accounting and disclosure requirements of FASB ASC 260, Earnings Per Share. In order to determine the net income (loss) attributable to both the redeemable shares and non-redeemable shares, the Company first considered the undistributed income (loss) allocable to both the redeemable shares and non-redeemable shares and the undistributed income (loss) is calculated using the total net loss less any dividends paid. We then allocated the undistributed income (loss) ratably based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding between the redeemable and non-redeemable shares. Any remeasurement of the accretion to redemption value of the ordinary shares subject to possible redemption was considered to be dividends paid to the public shareholders.





                                       10




For the year ended December 31, 2022 and for the period from February 19, 2021 (inception) to December 31, 2021, the Company did not have any dilutive securities and 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 loss per share is the same as basic loss per share for the period presented. The calculation of diluted loss per share does not consider the effect of the warrants issued in connection with the IPO and the private placement since the exercise of warrants are contingent on the occurrence of future events.





Warrants


The Company evaluates the public and private warrants as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the warrants' specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity ("ASC 480") and ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging ("ASC 815"). The assessment considers whether the warrants are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and whether the warrants meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the warrants are indexed to the Company's own ordinary shares, among other conditions for equity classification. Pursuant to such evaluation, both public and private warrants are classified in shareholders' equity.





Recent Accounting Standards


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

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no obligations, assets or liabilities, which would be considered off-balance sheet arrangements as of December 31, 2022. 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



Underwriting Agreement


A deferred underwriting commission of $0.35 per Public Unit sold, totaling $2,415,000 will be payable to the underwriters from the amounts held in the Trust Account solely in the event that the Company completes a business combination, without accrued interest. In the event that the Company does not close a business combination, the representative underwriter forfeits its right to receive the commission.





Registration Rights


The initial shareholders will be entitled to registration rights with respect to their initial shares, as well as the holders of the Private Units and holders of any securities issued to the Company's initial shareholders, officers, directors or their affiliates in payment of working capital loans or extension loans made to the Company, will be entitled to registration rights with respect to the Private Units (and underlying securities), pursuant to an agreement signed on the effective date of the IPO. The holders of such securities are entitled to demand that the Company register these securities at any time after the Company consummates a business combination. In addition, the holders have certain "piggy-back" registration rights on registration statements filed after the Company's consummation of a business combination.

Engagement agreement with Legal Counsel

The Company has entered into an engagement agreement with its legal counsel with respect to the proposed business combination. The fee will be based on the number of hours spent. An aggregate of $200,000 will be paid before the closing of the business combination and the balance will be due upon the closing of the business combination. As of December 31, 2022, an aggregate of $250,000 had been accrued into the Company's consolidated financial statements.

Engagement agreement with Underwriter

The Company has entered into an engagement agreement with its underwriter with respect to the proposed business combination. A success fee will be paid upon closing of the business combination, with the amount calculated as the following schedule: (i) 2% of the aggregate value of transaction (as described in Note 1, Business Combination) for the part up to $200 million; (ii) 1% for the part over $200 million.





                                       11




Engagement Agreement - Fairness Opinion

An aggregate of $90,000 will be paid upon the closing of the business combination, based on an engagement agreement entered into by the Company and the provider of fairness opinion concerning the terms of the business combination.
