- IPO Proceeds: Sold 23,000,000 Units (including full exercise of the 3,000,000 over-allotment option) at $10.00 per unit, generating $230,000,000 in gross proceeds.

- Trust Account: Deposited $230,000,000 into a Trust Account.
- Transaction Costs: Incurred total transaction costs of $15,554,267, comprising a $4,000,000 cash underwriting fee, a $10,950,000 deferred underwriting fee, and $604,267 in other offering costs.
- Debt Repayment: Repaid the entire outstanding balance of the $261,705 IPO Promissory Note to the Sponsor on April 4, 2025.
Outlook, Risks, and Management Commentary
- Business Combination Timeline: The Company has until April 3, 2027 (24 months from IPO) to consummate an initial business combination. Failure to do so may result in delisting from Nasdaq and liquidation.
- Liquidity: Prior to the IPO, liquidity was provided by a related-party promissory note. Post-IPO, the Company holds significant funds in the Trust Account and working capital outside the Trust Account to fund operations and search for targets.
- Risks:
- Market Conditions: Geopolitical instability, inflation, and trade policy changes (tariffs) could adversely affect the ability to find a target or the performance of a post-combination company.
- Delisting Risk: If the Company fails to meet the Nasdaq 36-Month Requirement, securities may be suspended and delisted.
- Share Price Volatility: Post-combination share price may fall below the $10.00 redemption price.
- Management Commentary: Management has broad discretion in applying net proceeds toward a business combination. The Company is an "emerging growth company" and a "smaller reporting company."
Investor Verification Checklist

- Assess the Administrative Services Agreement requiring monthly payments of $15,000 to the Sponsor's affiliate for office and administrative support.
- Monitor the Combination Period deadline of April 3, 2027, and any potential extensions requiring shareholder approval.
