Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of September 30, 2021, we had $69,327 in cash and working capital deficit of $791,705. Until the consummation of the Initial Public Offering, our only source of liquidity was an initial purchase of Founder Shares by our Sponsor and a loan from an affiliate of our Sponsor, which was repaid in full at the consummation of the Initial Public Offering.
Subsequent to the end of the quarterly period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the registration statement for the Company’s IPO was declared effective on November 4, 2021. On November 9, 2021, the Company consummated the IPO of 18,000,000 units (“Units” and, with respect to the shares of common stock included in the Units being offered, the “Public Shares”), generating gross proceeds of $180,000,000, which is described in Note 3.
Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the private sale (the “Private Placement”) of an aggregate of 9,200,000 warrants (the “Private Placement Warrants”) allocating 8,300,000 warrants to Intelligent Medicine Sponsor LLC (the “Sponsor”) and 900,000 warrants to the underwriter at a purchase price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant, generating gross proceeds to the Company in the amount of $9,200,000.
On November 9, 2021, the underwriters purchased an additional 2,700,000 Units pursuant to the exercise of the over-allotment option. The Units were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per Unit, generating additional gross proceeds to the Company of $27,000,000. Also, in connection with the exercise of the over-allotment option, the Sponsor and the underwriter purchased an additional 1,080,000 Private Placement Warrants at a purchase price of $1.00 per warrant for total gross proceeds of $1,080,000
Following the IPO and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants, a total of $211,140,000 ($10.20 per unit) was placed in a trust account (the “Trust Account”), and we had $1,613,365 of cash held outside of the Trust Account, after payment of costs related to the Initial Public Offering, and available for working capital purposes.
Transaction costs amounted to $15,554,321 consisting of $4,140,000 for the underwriting discount, $10,350,000 of deferred underwriting fees payable, and $1,064,321 of other offering costs.
Going Concern and Management’s Plan
Subsequent to September 30, 2021, we completed the IPO as described above. We have incurred and expect to continue to incur significant costs in pursuit of our acquisition plans. In connection with our assessment of going concern considerations, we determined that we do not currently have adequate liquidity to sustain operations, which consist solely of pursuing a Business Combination (as described below).
While we expect to have sufficient access to additional sources of capital if necessary, there is no current commitment on the part of any financing source to provide additional capital and no assurances can be provided that such additional capital will ultimately be available. These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. There is no assurance that our plans to raise additional capital (to the extent ultimately necessary) or to consummate a Business Combination will be successful or successful within the Combination Period.
As is customary for a special purpose acquisition company, if we are not able to consummate a Business Combination during the Combination Period, we will cease all operations and redeem the Public Shares. Management plans to continue its efforts to consummate a Business Combination during the Combination Period.
Business Combination
We intend to use substantially all of the funds held in the Trust Account, including any amounts representing interest earned on the Trust Account, which interest shall be net of taxes payable and excluding deferred underwriting fees payable, 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.
