We are a blank check company incorporated on July 26, 2021 (inception) as a Cayman Islands exempted company for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities (the “Business Combination”). We have not selected any business combination target and we have not, nor has anyone on our behalf, initiated any substantive discussions, directly or indirectly, with any business combination target. We intend to effectuate our initial business combination using cash from the proceeds of our IPO and the sale of our shares, debt or a combination of cash, equity 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.
We have neither engaged in any operations nor generated any revenues to date. Our only activities from July 26, 2021 (inception) to March 31, 2022 were organizational activities, those necessary to prepare for the IPO, described below, and, after the IPO, identifying a target company for a Business Combination. We do not expect to generate any operating revenues until after the completion of our Business Combination. We may generate
non-operating
income in the form of interest income on marketable securities 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 in connection with completing a Business Combination.
For the three months ended March 31, 2022 we had a net loss of $463, which consisted of formation and operating expenses of $463.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Until the consummation of the IPO, our only source of liquidity was an initial purchase of ordinary shares by the Sponsor and loans from our Sponsor.
Subsequent to the end of the quarterly period covered by this Quarterly Report, on April 28, 2022, we consummated the IPO of 8,050,000 units (“Public Units”), inclusive of 1,050,000 Public Units sold to the underwriters upon the underwriters’ election to partially exercise their over-allotment option. Each Public Unit consists of one Class A ordinary share, $0.0001 par value per share (such shares included in the Public Units, the “Public Shares”), one Class 1 redeemable warrant (the “Class 1 Warrant”) and
one-half
of one Class 2 redeemable warrant (the “Class 2 Warrant”, together with the Class 1 Warrant, the “Public Warrants”), each whole Public Warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one Public Share at an exercise price of $11.50 per share. The Public Units were sold at a price of $10.00 per Public Unit, generating gross proceeds of $80,500,000. Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, we consummated the sale of 492,000 Private Placement Units to the Sponsor at a price of $10.00 per Private Placement Unit, generating gross proceeds of $4,920,000.
Following the closing of the IPO and sale of the Private Placement Units on April 28, 2022, a total of $82,110,000 was placed in a U.S.-based trust account maintained by U.S. Bank, National Association, acting as trustee (the “Trust Account”), and we had $1,495,650 of cash held outside of the Trust Account, after payment of costs related to the IPO, and available for working capital purposes. In connection with the IPO, we incurred $5,117,607 in transaction costs, consisting of $1,610,000 of underwriting fees, $2,817,500 of deferred underwriting fees and $690,107 of other offering costs.
