Material changes and subsequent events
- The IPO raised $100 million gross, and the sponsor’s private placement generated $3.8 million gross. $101 million was placed in trust by March 31.
- On April 1, 2021, the underwriters partially exercised the over-allotment option: 506,002 additional units were sold for $5,060,020 gross, with an additional 101,621 private placement warrants sold. The filing reports that total trust deposits reached approximately $106.1 million as of that date.
- As of May 11, 2021, the filing reports 13,481,002 common shares issued and outstanding.
Outlook, risks, and contingencies
- The company had until March 22, 2022 to complete a business combination. If it did not, it expected to cease operations and redeem public shares from the trust, subject to applicable claims and costs; warrants could expire worthless.
- Management said it did not expect to need additional funds for planned expenditures, but warned that underestimated search and transaction costs, substantial redemptions, or insufficient funds could require additional financing or prevent a transaction.
- Management stated that COVID-19 could adversely affect the company or its search for a target, but that the impact could not be determined and no related adjustment was recorded.
- The company reported no off-balance-sheet arrangements and no material market or interest-rate exposure as of March 31, given the short-term nature of expected trust investments.
- The sponsor’s administrative-services agreement provides for $10,000 per month; no amounts had been paid by March 31. A $3.5 million deferred underwriting fee is payable upon completion of a business combination.
Important facts for investors to verify

- Reconcile the financial statements’ reported $1,518,550 net income and $0.39 per-share figure with the MD&A’s stated $15,450 net loss; the filing also labels the per-share amount as a loss despite showing a positive value.
- Reconcile operating cash use: the cash-flow statement reports $425,604, while the MD&A describes cash used in operating activities as $15,450.
- Confirm the post-quarter over-allotment proceeds, trust balance, share count, and any related changes to redemption or transaction terms.
- Assess the March 22, 2022 business-combination deadline, redemption exposure, warrant terms, and the ability to fund transaction costs outside the trust.
