At March 31, total liabilities were $10.88 million, including $4.88 million of current liabilities and a $6.00 million deferred underwriting fee. Shareholders’ deficit was $10.88 million. The company reported a $4.88 million working-capital deficit. Related-party borrowing included a $325,000 sponsor working-capital loan and $241,706 drawn under a Seamless promissory note. No long-term debt or off-balance-sheet financing arrangements were reported. Traditional operating margins are not meaningful because the company has no operating revenue.
Material changes, outlook and risks
- Shareholders approved an extension of the business-combination deadline to November 23, 2024. In connection with the extension, 2,661,404 public shares were redeemed for approximately $30.26 million; the trust balance fell to approximately $54.0 million after those redemptions and stood at $54.51 million at quarter-end.
- The company’s proposed transaction with Seamless Group Inc. remains subject to shareholder approval and other closing conditions. The filing describes aggregate consideration of $400 million in INFINT shares, valued at $10 per share. Seamless is making extension-related trust contributions; $560,000 had been deposited by May 20, 2024.
- Management says the $9,458 of operating cash may not support operations for 12 months and identifies substantial doubt about the company’s ability to continue as a going concern, given the limited runway and liquidation deadline. The trust funds are generally unavailable for operating expenses.
- NYSE notified INFINT that it had fewer than 300 public shareholders. NYSE accepted the company’s compliance plan on March 27, 2024, with monitoring through November 23, 2024; its shares and units remained listed. Public warrants had been delisted effective December 13, 2023.
- Disclosure controls were deemed ineffective because of a material weakness involving subsequent measurement of complex financial instruments, related to a prior-period restatement. Management is pursuing remediation but gives no assurance it will be effective.
- If no business combination is completed by the deadline, public shares are to be redeemed and warrants may expire worthless. The filing reports no material changes to the risk factors in the 2023 Form 10-K and no legal proceedings.
Important facts for investors to verify
- Confirm the filing entity: the provided filing is for INFINT Acquisition Corporation, although the request metadata names Currenc Group Inc.
- Confirm the status, revised terms, required approvals and remaining closing conditions for the Seamless transaction, and whether it can close by November 23, 2024.
- Assess available operating liquidity, further sponsor or Seamless funding, and the going-concern warning.
- Reconcile the sponsor-loan balance: the financial statements and notes report $325,000 outstanding, while the MD&A states $250,000.
- Track public-shareholder count and NYSE compliance-plan progress, as well as trust contributions, redemptions and potential dilution.
- Review remediation of the material weakness and the filing’s warrant-delisting and liquidation risks.
