ACRI CAPITAL ACQUISITION CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 2022
(Unaudited)
Note 1 — Organization and Business Operation
Acri Capital Acquisition Corporation
(the “Company”) is a newly organized blank check company incorporated as a Delaware corporation on January 7, 2022. The
Company was formed for the purpose of entering into a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, recapitalization,
reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses (the “Business Combination”). The Company is actively
searching and identifying suitable Business Combination target but has not selected any Business Combination target and it has not, nor
has anyone on its behalf, initiated any substantive discussions, directly or indirectly, with any Business Combination target. The company
is not limited to a particular industry or geographic region for purposes of consummating an initial Business Combination. The Company
will not undertake its initial Business Combination with any company being based in or having the majority of the company’s operations
in China (including Hong Kong and Macau). The Company has selected December 31 as its fiscal year end.
As of June 30, 2022, the Company
had not commenced any operations. For the period from January 7, 2022 (inception) through June 30, 2022, the Company’s efforts
have been limited to organizational activities as well as activities related to the initial public offering (the “IPO”). The
Company will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of a Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company will
generate non-operating income in the form of interest income from the proceeds derived from the IPO.
The registration statement
for the Company’s IPO became effective on June 9, 2022. On June 14, 2022 the Company consummated the IPO of 8,625,000 units (the
“Units”) (including 1,125,000 Units issued upon the full exercise of the over-allotment option). Each Unit consists of one
share of Class A common stock, $0.0001 par value per share (the “Public Shares”), and one-half of one redeemable warrant (the
“Public Warrants”), each whole Warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one share of Class A common stock (the “Class
A common stock”) at an exercise price of $11.50 per share. The Units were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per Unit, generating
gross proceeds of $86,250,000 on June 14, 2022.
Substantially concurrently
with the closing of the IPO, the Company completed the sale of 5,240,000 private placement warrants (the “Private Warrants”,
together with the Public Warrants, the “Warrants”) to the Company’s sponsor, Acri Capital Sponsor LLC (the “Sponsor”)
at a purchase price of $1.00 per Private Warrant, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $5,240,000. The Private Warrants are identical
to the Public Warrants except that the Private Warrants (including the Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the Private Warrants)
will not be transferable, assignable or salable until 30 days after the completion of the initial Business Combination except to permitted
transferees.
Transaction costs amounted
to $4,838,883, consisting of $4,312,500 of underwriting fees and $526,383 of other offering costs. Following the closing of IPO, cash
of $1,283,357 was held outside of the Trust Account (as defined below) and is available for working capital purposes.
The Company’s initial
Business Combination must occur with one or more target businesses that together have an aggregate fair market value of at least 80% of
the assets held in the Trust Account (as defined below) (excluding the deferred underwriting discounts and commissions and taxes payable
on the income earned on the Trust Account) at the time of the agreement to enter into the initial Business Combination. However, the Company
will only complete a Business Combination if the post-transaction company owns or acquires 50% or more of the outstanding voting securities
of the target or otherwise acquires a controlling interest in the target sufficient for the post-transaction company not to be required
to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”).
There is no assurance that the Company will be able to complete a Business Combination successfully.

Note 1 — Organization and Business Operation
(cont.)
Following the closing of the
IPO, $87,975,000 ($10.20 per Unit) from the proceeds of the sale of the Units and the Private Warrants, was held into a U.S.-based trust
account (the “Trust Account”) with Wilmington Trust, National Association, acting as trustee. The funds held in the Trust
Account will be invested only in U.S. government treasury bills, bonds or notes with a maturity of 185 days or less, or in money
market funds meeting the applicable conditions of Rule 2a-7 promulgated under the Investment Company Act which invest solely in direct
U.S. government treasury, so that the Company are not deemed to be an investment company under the Investment Company Act. Except
with respect to interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account that may be released to the Company to pay the Company’s
tax obligation, the proceeds from the IPO and the sale of the Private Warrants that are deposited and held in the Trust Account will not
be released from the Trust Account until the earliest to occur of (a) the completion of the initial Business Combination, (b) the
redemption of any shares of Class A common stock included in the Units sold in the IPO properly submitted in connection with a stockholder
vote to amend then current amended and restated Company’s certificate of incorporation (i) to modify the substance or timing
of its obligation to allow redemption in connection with its initial Business Combination or to redeem 100% of the Company’s Public
Shares if it does not complete the initial Business Combination within the Combination Period (as defined below) or (ii) with respect
to any other provision relating to stockholders’ rights or pre-initial Business Combination activity and (c) the redemption
of 100% of the Company’s Public Shares if it is unable to complete the Business Combination within the Combination Period, subject
to applicable law. The proceeds deposited in the Trust Account could become subject to the claims of the Company’s creditors which
could have higher priority than the claims of the Company’s public stockholders. If the Company anticipate that it may not be able
to consummate its initial Business Combination by March 14, 2023 (within nine (9) months from the consummation of the IPO), it may
extend the period of time to consummate a Business Combination up to nine (9) times by an additional one month each time for a total of
up to 9 months, affording the Company up to December 14, 2023 (up to eighteen (18) months from the consummation of the IPO) to complete
its initial Business Combination. Public stockholders will not be offered the opportunity to vote on or redeem their shares if the Company
chooses to make any such paid extension. Pursuant to the terms of the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation
and the trust agreement entered into between the Company and Wilmington Trust, National Association acting as trustee, the Sponsor or
its affiliates or designees, upon five days advance notice prior to the applicable deadline, must deposit into the Trust Account
for each month extension $ $287,212 ($0.0333 per share), on or prior to the date of the applicable deadline. Any such payments would be
made in the form of a loan. If the Company complete its initial Business Combination, the Company would repay such loaned amounts out
of the proceeds of the Trust Account. In addition, such extension funding loans may be convertible into Private Warrants upon the closing
of the Company’s initial Business Combination at $1.00 per warrant at the option of the lender.
The shares of Class A common
stock subject to redemption will be recorded at a redemption value and classified as temporary equity upon the completion of the IPO,
in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.”
In such case, the Company will consummate a Business Combination and, solely if the Company has net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001
upon such consummation of a Business Combination and, if the Company seeks stockholder approval, a majority of the issued and outstanding
shares voted are voted in favor of the Business Combination. The Company will have only by March 14, 2023 (nine (9) months from the
closing of the IPO) (or up to December 14, 2023 (18 months from the closing of the IPO) if the Company extends the period of time
to complete a Business Combination) from the closing of the IPO to complete the initial Business Combination (the “Combination Period”).
If the Company is unable to
complete the initial Business Combination within the Combination Period, the Company 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, 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 the Company to pay the Company’s taxes (less up to $50,000
of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then outstanding Public Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish
public stockholders’ rights as stockholders (including the right to receive further liquidating distributions, if any), subject
to applicable law, and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the Company’s
remaining stockholders and its board of directors, dissolve and liquidate, subject in each case to the Company’s obligations under
Delaware law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law.
There will be no redemption
rights or liquidating distributions with respect to the Company’s Warrants, which will expire worthless if the Company fails to
complete the Business Combination within the Combination Period. The Sponsor, directors and officers of the Company (the “founders”)
have entered into a letter agreement with the Company, pursuant to which they have agreed (i) to waive their redemption rights with
respect to any Founder Shares (as defined in Note 5) and any Public Shares held by them in connection with the completion of the
initial Business Combination, (ii) waive their redemption rights with respect to their Founder Shares and Public Shares in connection
with a stockholder vote to approve an amendment to the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation (A) to modify
the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to allow redemption in connection with the initial Business Combination or to
redeem 100% of the Company’s Public Shares if the Company does not complete its initial Business Combination within the Combination
Period or (B) with respect to any other provision relating to stockholders’ rights or pre-initial Business Combination activity
and (iii) to waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to any Founder Shares held by them
if the Company fails to complete the initial Business Combination within the Combination Period, although they will be entitled to liquidating
distributions from the Trust Account with respect to any Public Shares they hold if the Company fails to complete the initial Business
Combination within the Combination Period. If the Company submits it initial Business Combination to its stockholders for a vote, the
Company will complete its initial Business Combination only if a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock voted are voted in
favor of the initial Business Combination. In no event will the Company redeem its Public Shares in an amount that would cause its net
tangible assets to be less than $5,000,001. In such case, the Company would not proceed with the redemption of Public Shares and the related
Business Combination, and instead may search for an alternate Business Combination.

Note 1 — Organization
and Business Operation (cont.)
The Sponsor has agreed that
it will be liable to the Company if and to the extent any claims by a third party for services rendered or products sold to the Company,
or by a prospective target business with which the Company has discussed entering into a transaction agreement, reduce the amount of funds
in the Trust Account to below (i) $10.20 per Public Share or (ii) such lesser amount per Public Share held in the Trust Account
as of the date of the liquidation of the Trust Account due to reductions in the value of the trust assets, in each case net of the interest
which may be withdrawn to pay taxes. This liability will not apply with respect to any claims by a third party who executed a waiver of
any and all rights to seek access to the Trust Account and except as to any claims under the Company’s indemnity of the underwriters
of the IPO against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act (as defined in Note 2). Moreover, in the event
that an executed waiver is deemed to be unenforceable against a third party, then the Company’s Sponsor will not be responsible
to the extent of any liability for such third party claims.
However, the Company has not
asked the Sponsor to reserve for such indemnification obligations, nor has the Company independently verified whether the Sponsor has
sufficient funds to satisfy their indemnity obligations and believe that the Sponsor’s only assets are securities of the Company.
Therefore, the Company cannot assure that its sponsor would be able to satisfy those obligations. None of the officers or directors will
indemnify the Company for claims by third parties including, without limitation, claims by vendors and prospective target businesses.
Note 2 — Significant accounting
policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited
condensed financial statements are presented in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America (“US GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC, and include
all normal and recurring adjustments that management of the Company considers necessary for a fair presentation of its financial position
and operation results. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for any other interim period or for the
full year.
Emerging Growth Company Status
The Company is an “emerging
growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities
Act”), as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”), and it may take advantage
of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies
including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley
Act of 2002, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions
from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute
payments not previously approved.
Further, Section 102(b)(1) of
the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until
private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class
of securities registered under the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) are required to comply with
the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition
period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such an election to opt out is irrevocable.
The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it
has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised
standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of the Company’s financial statements
with another public company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the
extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.

Note 2 — Significant accounting
policies (cont.)
Use of Estimates
The preparation of unaudited
condensed financial statements in conformity with US 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 financial statements and the
reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash
The Company considers all short-term
investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. The Company had no cash equivalent
as of June 30, 2022.
Investments held in Trust Account
At June
30, 2022, $87,975,000 of the assets held in the Trust Account were held in money market funds, which
are invested in short term U.S. Treasury securities.
All of the Company’s
investments held in the Trust Account are classified as trading securities. Trading securities are presented on the condensed balance
sheets at fair value at the end of each reporting period. Gains and losses resulting from the change in fair value of investments held
in Trust Account are accounted as interest income in the statement of operations.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
ASC Topic
820 “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” defines fair value, the
methods used to measure fair value and the expanded disclosures about fair value measurements. Fair value is the price that would be received
to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between the buyer and the seller at the measurement date. In
determining fair value, the valuation techniques consistent with the market approach, income approach and cost approach shall be used
to measure fair value. ASC Topic 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy for inputs, which represent the assumptions used by the buyer
and seller in pricing the asset or liability. These inputs are further defined as observable and unobservable inputs. Observable inputs
are those that buyer and seller would use in pricing the asset or liability based on market data obtained from sources independent of
the Company. Unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s assumptions about the inputs that the buyer and seller would use in pricing
the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances.
The fair
value hierarchy is categorized into three levels based on the inputs as follows:
|
☐ |
Level 1 - Valuations based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access. Valuation adjustments and block discounts are not being applied. Since valuations are based on quoted prices that are readily and regularly available in an active market, valuation of these securities does not entail a significant degree of judgment. |
|
☐ |
Level 2 - Valuations based on (i) quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities, (ii) quoted prices in markets that are not active for identical or similar assets, (iii) inputs other than quoted prices for the assets or liabilities, or (iv) inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by market through correlation or other means. |
|
☐ |
Level 3 - Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. |
The fair value of the Company’s assets and
liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” approximates
the carrying amounts represented in the accompanying balance sheet, primarily due to their short-term nature.
Warrants
The Company accounts for Warrants
as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the warrant’s specific terms and applicable
authoritative guidance in Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) 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 shares of Class A common stock and whether the warrant holders could potentially require “net cash settlement” in a circumstance
outside of the Company’s control, among other conditions for equity classification. This assessment, which requires the use of professional
judgment, is conducted at the time of warrant issuance and as of each subsequent quarterly period end date while the Warrants are outstanding.
For issued or modified Warrants
that meet all of the criteria for equity classification, the Warrants are required to be recorded as a component of equity at the time
of issuance. For issued or modified Warrants that do not meet all the criteria for equity classification, the Warrants are required to
be recorded as liabilities at their initial fair value on the date of issuance, and each balance sheet date thereafter. Changes in the
estimated fair value of the Warrants are recognized as a non-cash gain or loss on the statements of operations.

Common Stock Subject to Possible Redemption
The Company accounts for
its common stock subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in ASC Topic
480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” Common stock subject to mandatory redemption (if any) are classified as a liability
instrument and are measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable common stock (including 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, common stock are classified as stockholders’ 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. Accordingly, as of June 30, 2022, common
stock subject to possible redemption are presented at redemption value of $10.20 per share
as temporary equity, outside of the shareholders’ equity section of the Company’s balance sheet. The Company recognizes changes
in redemption value immediately as they occur and adjusts the carrying value of redeemable common stock to
equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Increases or decreases in the carrying amount of redeemable common
stock are affected by charges against additional paid in capital or accumulated deficit if
additional paid in capital equals to zero.
Offering Costs
The Company complies with
the requirements of FASB ASC Topic 340-10-S99-1, “Other Assets and Deferred Costs – SEC Materials” (“ASC
340-10-S99”) and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 5A, “Expenses of Offering”. Offering
costs were $4,838,883 consisting principally of underwriting, legal, accounting and other expenses that are directly related to the IPO
and charged to stockholders’ equity upon the completion of the IPO.
Net Loss Per Common Share
The
Company complies 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 common stock and non-redeemable common stock and the undistributed income (loss) is calculated using
the total net loss less any dividends paid. The Company then allocated the undistributed income (loss) ratably based on the weighted average
number of shares outstanding between the redeemable and non-redeemable common stock. Any remeasurement of the accretion to redemption
value of the common stock subject to possible redemption was considered to be dividends paid to the public stockholders. As of June 30,
2022, the Company has not considered the effect of the Warrants sold in the IPO and private placement in the calculation of diluted net
income (loss) per share, since the exercise of the Warrants is contingent upon the occurrence of future events and the inclusion of such
Warrants would be anti-dilutive and the Company did not have any other dilutive securities and other contracts that could, potentially,
be exercised or converted into common stock and then share in the earnings of the Company. As a result, diluted income (loss) per share
is the same as basic (income) loss per share for the periods presented.

Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that
potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist of a cash account in a financial institution. The Company has
not experienced losses on this account and management believes the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such account. As of
June 30, 2022, approximately $88.8 million was over the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) limit.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income
taxes under ASC 740 Income Taxes (“ASC 740”). ASC 740 requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities
for both the expected impact of differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities and for the expected
future tax benefit to be derived from tax loss and tax credit carry forwards. ASC 740 additionally requires a valuation allowance
to be established when it is more likely than not that all or a portion of deferred tax assets will not be realized.
ASC 740 also clarifies
the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold
and measurement process for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return.
For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities.
ASC 740 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim period, disclosure
and transition.
The Company recognizes accrued
interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. There were no unrecognized tax benefits and no amounts
accrued for interest and penalties as of June 30, 2022. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result
in significant payments, accruals or material deviation from its position.
The Company has identified
the United States as its only major tax jurisdiction.
The Company may be subject
to potential examination by federal and state taxing authorities in the areas of income taxes. These potential examinations may include
questioning the timing and amount of deductions, the nexus of income among various tax jurisdictions and compliance with federal and state
tax laws. The Company’s management does not expect that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits will materially change over
the next twelve months.
The Company is incorporated
in the State of Delaware and is required to pay franchise taxes to the State of Delaware on an annual basis.

Note 4 — Initial Public
Offering
Pursuant to the IPO, the
Company sold 8,625,000 Units including 1,125,000 Units issued upon the full exercise of the over-allotment option. Each Unit has
an offering price of $10.00 and consists of one share of the Company’s Class A Common Stock and one-half of one redeemable
Public Warrants. The Company will not issue fractional shares. As a result, the Public Warrants must be exercised in multiples of two.
Each whole redeemable Public Warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one share Class A Common Stock at a price of $11.50
per full share. The Public Warrants will become exercisable on the later of 30 days after the completion of the Company’s initial
Business Combination or 12 months from the closing of the IPO, and will expire five years after the completion of the Company’s
initial Business Combination or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.
All
of the 8,625,000 Public Shares sold as part of the Units in the IPO contain a redemption feature which allows for the redemption
of such Public Shares if there is a stockholder vote or tender offer in connection with the Business Combination and in connection with
certain amendments to the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation, or in connection with the Company’s
liquidation. In accordance with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and its staff’s guidance on redeemable
equity instruments, which has been codified in ASC 480-10-S99, redemption provisions not solely within the control of the Company
require common stock subject to redemption to be classified outside of permanent equity.
The
Company’s redeemable common stock is subject to SEC and its staff’s guidance on redeemable equity instruments, which has been
codified in ASC 480-10-S99. If it is probable that the equity instrument will become redeemable, the Company has the option to either
accrete changes in the redemption value over the period from the date of issuance (or from the date that it becomes probable that the
instrument will become redeemable, if later) to the earliest redemption date of the instrument or to recognize changes in the redemption
value immediately as they occur and adjust the carrying amount of the instrument to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting
period. The Company has elected to recognize the changes immediately. The accretion or remeasurement is treated as a deemed dividend (i.e.,
a reduction to retained earnings, or in absence of retained earnings, additional paid-in capital).

price of $1.00 per Private Warrant, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $5,240,000. Private Warrants are identical to the Public
Warrants included in the Units sold in this IPO except that the Private Warrants (including the Class A common stock issuable upon exercise
of the Private Warrants) will not be transferable, assignable or salable until 30 days after the completion of the initial Business Combination
except to permitted transferees.

Founder Shares
On February 4, 2022, the
Sponsor acquired 2,156,250 Class B common stock (“Founder Shares”) of for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000, or
approximately $0.01 per share. As of June 30, 2022, there were 2,156,250 Founder Shares issued and outstanding.
The number of Founder Shares
issued was determined based on the expectation that such Founder Shares would represent 20% of the number of Class A common stock and
Class B common stock issued and outstanding upon completion of the IPO.
The Founder Shares are identical
to the Public Shares. However, the founders have agreed (A) to vote their Founder Shares in favor of any proposed Business Combination,
(B) not to propose, or vote in favor of, prior to and unrelated to an initial Business Combination, an amendment to the Company’s
certificate of incorporation that would affect the substance or timing of the Company’s redemption obligation to redeem all Public

Founder Shares and Public Shares into the right to receive cash from the Trust Account in connection with a stockholder vote to approve
the Company’s proposed initial Business Combination or sell any shares to us in any tender offer in connection with the Company’s

Promissory Note — Related Party
On
January 20, 2022, the Sponsor has agreed to loan the Company up to $500,000 to be used for a portion of the expenses of the IPO. This
loan is non-interest bearing, unsecured and is due at the earlier of (1) January 20, 2023 or (2) the date on which the
Company consummates its IPO of its securities. The Company has an outstanding
loan balance of $316,827 on June 14, 2022 after the IPO and the outstanding balance was repaid on June 21, 2022. As of June 30, 2022,
there was no loan balance outstanding.
Related Party Loans
In addition, in order to finance
transaction costs in connection with an intended initial Business Combination, the Sponsor, or an affiliate of the Sponsor or certain
of the Company’s officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds as may be required. If the Company
completes the initial Business Combination, it would repay such loaned amounts. In the event that the initial Business Combination does
not close, the Company may use a portion of the working capital held outside the Trust Account to repay such loaned amounts but no proceeds
from the Trust Account would be used for such repayment. Up to $3,000,000 of such loans may be converted upon consummation of the Company’s
Business Combination into Warrants at a price of $1.00 per warrant. If the Company does not complete a Business Combination, the
loans would be repaid out of funds not held in the Trust Account, and only to the extent available. Such Private Warrant converted from
loan would be identical to the Private Warrants sold in the private placement.
As of June 30, 2022, the Company
had no borrowings under the working capital loans.
Administrative Services Fees
The Company has agreed, commencing
on the effective date of the prospectus, to pay the Sponsor the monthly fee of an aggregate of $10,000 for office space, administrative
and shared personnel support services. This arrangement will terminate upon the earlier of (a) completion of a Business Combination
or (b) twelve months after the completion of the IPO. The Company accrued $7,000 for administrative services fees from June

Warrants — On
June 14, 2022, the Company issued 4,312,500 Public Warrants in connection with the IPO. Substantially concurrently with the closing of
the IPO, the Company completed the private sale of 5,240,000 Private Warrants to the Company’s Sponsor.
Each whole Warrant entitles
the registered holder to purchase one whole share of the Company’s Class A common stock at a price of $11.50 per share, subject
to adjustment as discussed below, at any time commencing on the later of 12 months from the closing of the IPO or the date of the
completion of the initial Business Combination. Pursuant to the warrant agreement (the “warrant agreement”) signed on June
9, 2022 between the Company and VStock Transfer, LLC, the warrant agent of the Company, a warrant holder may exercise its Warrants only
for a whole number of shares of Class A common stock. This means that only a whole Warrant may be exercised at any given time by a warrant
holder. No fractional Warrants will be issued upon separation of the Units and only whole Warrants will trade. The Warrants will expire
five years after the completion of the Company’s initial Business Combination, at 5:00 p.m., New York City time,
or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.
The Company has agreed that
as soon as practicable, but in no event later than 30 business days, after the closing of the initial Business Combination, it will
use its reasonable best efforts to file, and within 60 business days following its initial Business Combination to have declared
effective, a registration statement for the registration, under the Securities Act, of the shares of Class A common stock issuable upon
exercise of the Warrants. The Company will use its reasonable best efforts to maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement,
and a current prospectus relating thereto, until the expiration of the Warrants in accordance with the provisions of the warrant agreement.
No Warrants will be exercisable for cash unless the Company has an effective and current registration statement covering the Class A common
stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants and a current prospectus relating to such shares of common stock. Notwithstanding the above,
if the Company’s Class A common stock is at the time of any exercise of a Warrant not listed on a national securities exchange such
that it satisfies the definition of a “covered security” under Section 18(b)(1) of the Securities Act, the Company
may, at its option, require holders of Warrants who exercise their Warrants to do so on a “cashless basis” in accordance with
Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act and, in the event it so elect, it will not be required to file or maintain in effect a
registration statement, but it will be required to use its reasonable best efforts to register or qualify the shares under applicable
blue sky laws to the extent an exemption is not available.
In addition, if (x) the Company issues additional shares of Class
A common stock or equity-linked securities for capital raising purposes in connection with the closing of the Company’s initial
Business Combination at an issue price or effective issue price (the “Newly Issued Price”) of less than $9.20 per share (with
such issue price or effective issue price to be determined in good faith by the Company’s board of directors and, in the case of
any such issuance to the Company’s founders or their affiliates, without taking into account any founders’ shares held by
the Company’s founders or such affiliates, as applicable, prior to such issuance), (y) the aggregate gross proceeds from such
issuances represent more than 60% of the total equity proceeds, and interest thereon, available for the funding of the Company’s

and (z) the volume weighted average reported trading price of Class A Common Stock for the twenty (20) trading days starting on the

the fair value of the warrants is approximately $1.4 million, or $0.157 per Unit, using the Monte Carlo Model. The
fair value of the Public Warrants is estimated as of the date of grant using the following
assumptions: (1) expected volatility of 0.1%, (2) risk-free interest rate of 3.08%, (3) expected life of 6.18 years, (4)
exercise price of $11.50 and (5) stock price of $9.84.
As of June 30, 2022, 9,552,500
Warrants were outstanding.

As of June 30, 2022, the Company had $160,582 of U.S. federal and state
net operating loss carryovers available to offset future taxable income which do not expire. In assessing the realization of deferred
tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which
temporary differences representing net future deductible amounts become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred
tax assets, projected future taxable income and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. After consideration of all of the information
available, management believes that significant uncertainty exists with respect to future realization of the deferred tax assets and has
therefore established a full valuation allowance.
Note 10 — Subsequent Events
The Company evaluated subsequent
events and transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date through August 12, 2022. The Company did not identify any subsequent
events that would have required adjustment or disclosure in the unaudited condensed financial statement.

Overview
We are a blank check company incorporated as a Delaware corporation
on January 7, 2022 formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization
or similar business combination with one or more businesses (a “Business Combination”). We are actively searching and identifying
suitable Business Combination target but have not selected any Business Combination target. We intend to effectuate our Business Combination
using cash derived from the proceeds of our initial public offering (the “IPO”) and the sale of warrants (the “Private
Placement Warrants”) in a private placement (the “Private Placement”) to the Company’s sponsor Acri Capital Sponsor
LLC (the “sponsor”), potential additional shares, debt or a combination of cash, shares and debt.
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.
Recent Development
On June 14, 2022 the Company consummated the IPO
of 8,625,000 units (the “Units”) (including 1,125,000 Units issued upon the full exercise of the over-allotment option). Each
Unit consists of one share of Class A common stock, $0.0001 par value per share (the “Public Shares”), and one-half of one
redeemable warrant (the “Public Warrants”), each whole Warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one share of Class
A common stock (the “Class A common stock”) at an exercise price of $11.50 per share. The Units were sold at an offering price
of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $86,250,000 on June 14, 2022.
On July 27, 2022, we announced that holders of
our Units may elect to separately trade Public Shares and Public Warrants included in its Units, commencing on or about August 1, 2022.
The Public Shares and Public Placement Warrants
are traded on the Nasdaq Global Market (“Nasdaq”) under the symbols “ACAC” and “ACACW,” respectively.
Units not separated are traded on Nasdaq under the symbol “ACACU”.
As of the date of this report, we have not entered into any definitive
agreements, for the purpose of acquiring, engaging in a share exchange, share reconstruction and amalgamation with, purchasing all or
substantially all of the assets of, entering into contractual arrangements with, or engaging in any other similar Business Combination
with one or more businesses or entities. We currently have until March 10, 2023 to consummate our initial Business Combination. However,
if we anticipate that we may not be able to consummate our initial Business Combination by March 10, 2023, we may, but are not obligated
to, we may, but are not obligated to, extend the period of time to consummate a Business Combination for up to nine times by an additional
one month each time and may have until December 10, 2023 to consummate our initial Business Combination.
Results of Operations
We have neither engaged in any operations nor
generated any operating revenues to date except the preparation and completion of the IPO and search for target candidate following the
consummation of the IPO. Our only activities from inception through June 30, 2022 were organizational activities and those necessary to
prepare for the IPO, described below. We do not expect to generate any operating revenues until after the completion of our initial Business
Combination. We expect to generate non-operating income in the form of interest income on marketable securities held after the
IPO. We expect that we will incur increased expenses as a result of being a public company (for legal, financial reporting, accounting
and auditing compliance), as well as for due diligence expenses in connection with searching for, and completing, a Business Combination.
For the three months ended June 30, 2022 and the period from January
7, 2022 (inception) through June 30, 2022, we had a net loss of $159,937 and $160,582, respectively, all of which consisted of formation
and operating costs.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company’s liquidity needs up to June
30, 2022 had been satisfied through a payment from the sponsor of $25,000 for the Founder Shares to cover certain offering costs and the
loan under an unsecured promissory note from the sponsor of $316,627. We repaid the loan on June 21, 2022
On June 14, 2022, we consummated the IPO of 8,625,000
units at a price of $10.00 per unit (including 1,125,000 units issued upon the fully exercise of the over-allotment option, the “Public
Units”), generating gross proceeds of $86,250,000. Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO and exercise of the over-allotment
option in full by the underwriters, we consummated the sale of 5,240,000 warrants as Private Placement Warrants, at a price of $1.00 per
warrant, with each warrant entitling the registered holder to purchase one share of the Company’s Class A common stock at a
price of $11.50 per share, generating gross proceeds of $5,240,000. Following the closings of the IPO and the sales of the Private Placement
Warrants on June 14, 2022, a total of $87,975,000 (or $10.20 per share) was placed in a trust account, established for the benefit of
the Company’s public stockholders and the underwriters of the IPO with Wilmington Trust, National Association acting as trustee
(the “Trust Account”).
As of June 30, 2022, the Company had cash of $1,078,333
and a working capital of $1,128,035 (excluding deferred offering costs). Upon the closing of the IPO and the Private Placement on June
14, 2022, cash of $1,600,184 was held outside of the Trust Account and is available for the payment of offering costs and for working
capital purposes.
We intend to use substantially all of the funds
held in the Trust Account, including any amounts representing interest earned on the Trust Account, excluding deferred underwriting commissions,
to complete our Business Combination. We may withdraw interest from the Trust Account to pay taxes, if any. To the extent that our share
capital or debt is used, in whole or in part, as consideration to complete a 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.
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, 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 the Company completes the initial Business Combination,
it would repay such loaned amounts. In the event that the 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 the Trust Account would be used for such repayment.
Up to $3,000,000 of such loans may be convertible into warrant, at a price of $1.00 per warrant at the option of the lender.
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 Business Combination or because we become obligated to redeem a significant
number of our public shares upon completion of our Business Combination, in which case we may issue additional securities or incur debt
in connection with such Business Combination.
Off-Balance Sheet Financing Arrangements
We have no obligations, assets or liabilities
that would be considered off-balance sheet arrangements as of June 30, 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
As of June 30, 2022, we do not have any long-term
debt, capital lease obligations, operating lease obligations or long-term liabilities.
The holders of the founder shares, the Private
Placement Warrants, and any warrants that may be issued upon conversion of working capital loans (and any underlying securities) will
be entitled to registration rights pursuant to a registration rights agreement entered into in connection with the IPO. 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 our
completion of our initial Business Combination. We will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration
statements.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
In preparing the unaudited condensed financial
statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP, management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities
and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported expenses during the reporting
period.
Making estimates requires
management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation
or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate,
could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, actual results may differ from these estimates. We
have identified the following critical accounting policies and estimates:
Investments held in Trust Account
At June
30, 2022, $87,975,000 of the assets held in the Trust Account were held in money market funds, which
are invested in short term U.S. Treasury securities.
The Company classifies its U.S. Treasury and equivalent
securities as held-to-maturity in accordance with ASC Topic 320 “Investments — Debt and Equity Securities.” Held-to-maturity
securities are those securities which the Company has the ability and intent to hold until maturity. Held-to-maturity treasury securities
are recorded at amortized cost on the accompanying balance sheet and adjusted for the amortization or accretion of premiums or discounts.
Offering Costs
The Company complies with the requirements of
FASB ASC Topic 340-10-S99-1, “Other Assets and Deferred Costs – SEC Materials” (“ASC 340-10-S99”)
and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 5A, “Expenses of Offering”. Offering costs consisting principally of underwriting,
legal, accounting and other expenses that are directly related to the IPO and charged to shareholders’ equity upon the completion
of the IPO.
Warrants
We account for warrants as either equity-classified
or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the warrant’s specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance
in Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) 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, whether they 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 common stock and whether the warrant holders could potentially require “net cash settlement” in a circumstance outside
of the Company’s control, among other conditions for equity classification. This assessment, which requires the use of professional
judgment, is conducted at the time of warrant issuance and as of each subsequent quarterly period end date while the warrants are outstanding.
For issued or modified warrants that meet all
of the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded as a component of equity at the time of issuance.
For issued or modified warrants that do not meet all the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded
as liabilities at their initial fair value on the date of issuance, and each balance sheet date thereafter. Changes in the estimated fair
value of the warrants are recognized as a non-cash gain or loss on the statements of operations. We determined that upon further review
of the proposed form of warrant agreement, management concluded that the warrants included in the units issued in the IPO pursuant to
the warrant agreement qualify for equity accounting treatment.
Common Stock Subject to Possible Redemption
The Company accounts for its common stock subject to possible redemption
in accordance with the guidance in ASC Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” Common stock subject to mandatory
redemption (if any) are classified as a liability instrument and are measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable common stock (including
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, common stock
is classified as stockholders’ 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. Accordingly, as of June 30, 2022, common
stock subject to possible redemption are presented at redemption value of $10.20 per share as temporary equity, outside of the shareholders’
equity section of the Company’s balance sheet. The Company recognizes changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and
adjusts the carrying value of redeemable common stock to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Increases or
decreases in the carrying amount of redeemable common stock are affected by charges against additional paid in capital or accumulated
deficit if additional paid in capital equals to zero.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under ASC
740 Income Taxes (“ASC 740”). ASC 740 requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for both the expected
impact of differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities and for the expected future tax benefit
to be derived from tax loss and tax credit carry forwards. ASC 740 additionally requires a valuation allowance to be established when
it is more likely than not that all or a portion of deferred tax assets will not be realized.
ASC 740 also clarifies the accounting for uncertainty
in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process
for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits
to be recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. ASC 740 also provides
guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim period, disclosure and transition.
The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties
related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. There were no unrecognized tax benefits and no amounts accrued for interest
and penalties as of June 30, 2022. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments,
accruals or material deviation from its position.
The Company has identified the United States
as its only major tax jurisdiction.
The Company may be subject to potential
examination by federal and state taxing authorities in the areas of income taxes. These potential examinations may include questioning
the timing and amount of deductions, the nexus of income among various tax jurisdictions and compliance with federal and state tax laws.
The Company’s management does not expect that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits will materially change over the next
twelve months.
The Company is incorporated in the State of Delaware
and is required to pay franchise taxes to the State of Delaware on an annual basis.
Net Income (Loss) per Share
The Company complies 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 common stock
and non-redeemable common stock and the undistributed income (loss) is calculated using the total net loss less any dividends paid. The
Company then allocated the undistributed income (loss) ratably based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding between the
redeemable and non-redeemable common stock. Any remeasurement of the accretion to redemption value of the common stock subject to possible
redemption was considered to be dividends paid to the public stockholders.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Management does not believe that any other recently
issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s unaudited
condensed financial statement.
