Overview
We are a Delaware corporation structured as a blank check company formed for the
purpose of effecting a business combination. We intend to effectuate our initial
business combination using cash from the proceeds of the IPO and the sale of the
private placement warrants, our capital stock, debt or a combination of cash,
stock and debt. We are an emerging growth company and, as such, we are subject
to all of the risks associated with emerging growth companies.
We expect to continue to incur significant costs in the pursuit of our
acquisition plans. We cannot assure you that our plans to raise capital or to
complete our initial business combination will be successful.
Results of Operations and Known Trends or Future Events
We have neither engaged in any operations nor generated any revenues to date.
Our only activities since inception have been organizational activities, those
necessary to prepare for our IPO and identifying a target company for our
initial business combination. We do not expect to generate any operating
revenues until after completion of our initial business combination. We generate
non-operating income in the form of interest income on cash and cash equivalents
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 March 31, 2022, we had a net income of $4,730,554. We
incurred $374,917 of formation and operating costs consisting mostly of general
and administrative expenses. We had investment income of $22,269 on our amounts
held in the trust account and change in fair value of warrant liabilities of
$5,083,202.
For the three months ended March 31, 2021, we had a net loss of $1,765,843. We
incurred $265,511 of formation and operating costs consisting mostly of general
and administrative expenses and offering expense related to warrants of
$864,511. We had investment income of $1,302 on our amounts held in the trust
account and change in fair value of warrant liabilities of $637,123.
We reclassified a portion of the offering costs associated with the IPO
originally charged to temporary equity, to an expense in the statements of
operations in the amount of $864,511 based on a relative fair value basis. The
change in fair value of warrants was a decrease in the liability of $5,083,202
and increase in the liability of $637,123, respectively, for the three months
ended March 31, 2022 and 2021.
19
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we had cash outside the trust
account of $142,136 and $612,101 available for working capital needs,
respectively. All remaining cash held in the trust account is generally
unavailable for our use, prior to an initial business combination, and is
restricted for use either in a business combination or to redeem common stock.
As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, none of the amount in the trust
account was available to be withdrawn as described above.
Through March 31, 2022, our liquidity needs were satisfied through receipt of
$25,000 from the sale of the founder shares, and the remaining net proceeds from
the IPO and the sale of private placement warrants.
On December 1, 2021, we issued the Note to our sponsor in the principal amount
of up to $1,500,000. The Note was issued in connection with advances the sponsor
has made, and may make in the future, to us for working capital expenses. As of
March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the outstanding balance of the Note was
$800,000 and $550,000, respectively.
As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we did not have any off-balance
sheet arrangements. 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.
Going Concern
We anticipate that the $142,136 outside of the trust account as of March 31,
2022, might not be sufficient to allow us to operate until March 5, 2023, the
period we have to consummate an initial business combination, assuming that a
business combination is not consummated during that time. Until consummation of
our business combination, we will be using the funds not held in the trust
account, and any additional Working Capital Loans (as defined in Note 5 to our
unaudited condensed financial statements) from the initial stockholders, our
officers and directors, or their respective affiliates (which is described in
Note 5 to our unaudited condensed financial statements), for identifying and
evaluating prospective acquisition candidates, performing business due diligence
on prospective target businesses, traveling to and from the offices, plants or
similar locations of prospective target businesses, reviewing corporate
documents and material agreements of prospective target businesses, selecting
the target business to acquire and structuring, negotiating and consummating the
business combination.
We can raise additional capital through Working Capital Loans from the initial
stockholders, our officers, directors, or their respective affiliates (which is
described in Note 5 to our unaudited condensed financial statements) or through
loans from third parties. None of the sponsor, officers or directors are under
any obligation to advance funds to, or to invest in us. If we are 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 its business plan, and reducing
overhead expenses. We 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 our ability to continue as a going concern for a
reasonable period of time, which is considered to be one year from the issuance
date of the financial statements.
We have until March 5, 2023, 24 months from the closing of the IPO, to
consummate a business combination (the "Combination Period"). However, if we are
unable to complete a business combination within the Combination Period, we will
redeem 100% of the outstanding public shares for a pro rata portion of the funds
held in the trust account, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the
trust account including interest earned on the funds held in the trust account
and not previously released to us, divided by the number of then outstanding
public shares, subject to applicable law and as further described in the
registration statement, and then seek to dissolve and liquidate. There is a
possibility that a business combination might not happen within the Combination
Period.
20
Contractual Obligations
As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we did not have any long-term debt,
capital or operating lease obligations.
We entered into an administrative support agreement pursuant to which we pay our
sponsor for office space and secretarial and administrative services provided to
members of our management team, in an amount not to exceed $10,000 per month.
Since March 5, 2021, we have paid the sponsor a total of $10,000 per month for
office space and administrative support services. Upon completion of the initial
business combination or our liquidation, we will cease paying these monthly
fees. We incurred $30,000 and $9,677 in such fees for the three months ended
March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
Critical Accounting Estimates
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 Standard Board's Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC")
Topic 480 "Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity" and ASC Topic 815-15. The
classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments
should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is reassessed at the end of each
reporting period.
Derivative Warrant Liabilities
We issued an aggregate of 17,433,333 warrants in connection with our IPO and
private placement, which, are recognized as derivative liabilities in accordance
with ASC Topic 815-40. Accordingly, we recognize the warrants as liabilities at
fair value and adjust the instruments to fair value at each reporting period.
The liabilities are subject to remeasurement at each balance sheet date until
exercised, and any change in fair value is recognized in our statements of
operations. At the IPO, we utilized a Monte Carlo simulation model to determine
the initial value of the public warrants and private warrants. At March 31, 2022
and December 31, 2021, we used the quoted stock price in the active market to
value the public warrants and a Monte Carlo simulation model to value the
private warrants with changes in fair value charged to the statements of
operations.
Conversion Feature of Promissory Note
On December 1, 2021, we issued the Note to our sponsor. The Note was issued in
connection with advances the sponsor has made, and may make in the future, to us
for working capital expenses. The lender may elect to convert up to $1,500,000
of the unpaid principal balance of the Note into warrants, each warrant
exercisable for one share of our Class A common stock upon the consummation of
an initial business combination. This embedded conversion feature is subject to
remeasurement at each balance sheet date until exercised, and any change in fair
value is recognized in our statements of operations. It is valued using the
Geske compound valuation model and at both issuance date and March 31, 2022, its
value was de minimis.
Recent Accounting Standards
Our management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective,
accounting standards if currently adopted would have a material effect on the
accompanying financial statements.
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, the ongoing effects of the
COVID-19 pandemic, including resurgences and the emergence of new variants, and
geopolitical instability, such as the military conflict in the Ukraine. We
cannot at this time fully 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.
