Opinion on the Financial Statement
We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of BEST SPAC I Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) as of June 16, 2025 and the related notes (collectively referred to as the financial statement). In our opinion, the financial statement present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of June 16, 2025, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Substantial Doubt about the Company’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern
The accompanying financial statement has been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statement, the Company has 12 months from this closing to consummate a business combination or it will trigger an automatic winding up, dissolution and liquidation, which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1. The financial statement does not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Basis for Opinion
The financial statement is the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statement based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statement is free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audit, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statement, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statement. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENT
Note 1 – Description of Organization and Business Operation
BEST SPAC I Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) is blank check company incorporated as a British Virgin Islands business company on December 13, 2024. The Company was incorporated for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses (the “Business Combination”). The Company has not selected any potential Business Combination target and the Company has not, nor has anyone on its behalf, initiated any substantive discussions, directly or indirectly, with any potential Business Combination target.
As of June 16, 2025, the Company had not commenced any operations. All activity for the period from December 13, 2024 (inception) through June 16, 2025 relates to the Company’s formation and the Initial Public Offering (the “IPO”), as described below. The Company will not generate any operating revenue until after the completion of its initial Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company may generate non-operating income in the form of interest income from the proceeds derived from the IPO. The Company has selected December 31 as its fiscal year end. The Company’s sponsor is BEST SPAC I (Holdings) Corp., a British Virgin Islands business company (the “Sponsor”).
The registration statement for the Company’s IPO became effective on June 12, 2025. On June 16, 2025, the Company consummated the IPO of 5,500,000 units (the “Units”). Each Unit consists of one Class A ordinary share, no par value per share and one right to receive of one-tenth of one Class A ordinary share upon the completion of the initial Business Combination. The Units were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per unit, generating gross proceeds of $55,000,000.
Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO and the sale of the Units, the Company consummated the private placement (“Private Placement”) of 277,000 units (the “Private Placement Units”) to the Sponsor at a price of $10.00 per Private Placement Unit, generating total proceeds of $2,770,000, which is described in Note 4.
Transaction costs amounted to $1,518,116 consisting of $550,000 of underwriting commissions which was paid in cash at the closing date of the IPO, $544,500 of the Representative Shares (discussed in the below), and $423,616 of other offering costs. At the IPO date, cash of $1,919,995 was held outside of the Trust Account (as defined below) and is available for the payment of the promissory note (see Note 5), payment of accrued expenses and for working capital purposes.
In conjunction with the IPO, the Company issued to the underwriter 247,500 Class A ordinary shares for no consideration (the “Representative Shares”). The fair value of the Representative Shares accounted for as compensation under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 718, “Compensation – Stock Compensation” (“ASC 718”) is included in the offering costs. The estimated fair value of the Representative Shares as of the IPO date totaled $544,500.
Following the closing of the IPO on June 16, 2025, an amount of $55,000,000 ($10.00 per Unit) from the net proceeds of the sale of the Units in the IPO and the sale of the Private Placement Units was placed in a trust account (the “Trust Account”), with Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company acting as trustee. The funds placed in the Trust Account are initially to be held in cash, including demand deposit accounts at a bank, or invested only in U.S. government treasury bills with a maturity of 185 days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), which invest only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations. Except with respect to interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account that may be released to the Company to pay its taxes, if any, the proceeds from the IPO and the private placement will not be released from the Trust Account until the earliest of (i) the completion of the initial Business Combination, (ii) the redemption of any public shares properly tendered in connection with a shareholder vote to amend the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association to (A) modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to redeem 100% of the public shares if the Company does not complete the initial Business Combination within the Combination Period (defined below) or (B) with respect to any other provision relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-Business Combination activity and (iii) the redemption of all of the public shares if the Company is unable to complete the initial Business Combination within the Combination Period, subject to applicable law. The proceeds deposited in the Trust Account could become subject to the claims of the creditors, if any, which could have priority over the claims of the public shareholders.
F-4
The Company’s management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the IPO and the sale of the Private Placement Units, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be applied generally toward consummating a Business Combination (less deferred underwriting commissions). There is no assurance that the Company will be able to complete a business combination successfully. The initial Business Combination must be with one or more target businesses or assets having an aggregate fair market value of at least 80% of the value of the Trust Account (less any taxes payable on interest earned and less any interest earned thereon that is released to the Company for taxes) at the time of signing a definitive agreement in connection with the initial Business Combination. However, the Company will only complete a Business Combination if the post-Business Combination company owns or acquires 50% or more of the outstanding voting securities of the target or otherwise acquires a controlling interest in the target sufficient for it not to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully effect a Business Combination.
The Company will provide the public shareholders with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their public shares upon the completion of the initial Business Combination either (i) in connection with a shareholder meeting called to approve the Business Combination or (ii) by means of a tender offer. The decision as to whether the Company will seek shareholder approval of a proposed Business Combination or conduct a tender offer will be made by the Company, solely in its discretion, and will be based on a variety of factors such as the timing of the transaction and whether the terms of the transaction would require the Company to seek shareholder approval under the law or stock exchange listing requirement. The Company will provide the public shareholders with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their public shares upon the completion of the initial Business Combination at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account as of two business days prior to the consummation of the initial Business Combination, including interest (which interest shall be net of taxes payable) divided by the number of then outstanding public shares, subject to the limitations described herein. The amount in the Trust Account is initially anticipated to be $10.00 per public share (subject to increase of up to an additional $0.20 per unit in the event that the Sponsor elects to extend the period of time to consummate a Business Combination, as described in more detail in the IPO).
The Company will account for its Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in ASC Topic 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity” (ASC 480). Ordinary shares subject to mandatory redemption (if any) will be classified as a liability instrument and will be measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable ordinary shares (including ordinary shares that features redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the Company’s control) will be classified as temporary equity. At all other times, ordinary shares will be classified as shareholder’s equity. In accordance with ASC 480-10-S99, the Company will classify Class A ordinary shares subject to redemption outside of permanent equity as the redemption provisions are not solely within the control of the Company. Given that the 5,500,000 Class A ordinary shares sold as part of the Units in the Initial Public Offering will be issued with other freestanding instruments (i.e., rights), the initial carrying value of Class A ordinary shares classified as temporary equity will be the allocated proceeds determined in accordance with ASC 470-20. If it is probable that the equity instrument will become redeemable, the Company has the option to either (i) accrete changes in the redemption value over the period from the date of issuance (or from the date that it becomes probable that the instrument will become redeemable, if later) to the earliest redemption date of the instrument or (ii) recognize changes in the redemption value immediately as they occur and adjust the carrying amount of the instrument to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. The Company has elected to recognize the changes in redemption value as a charge against retained earnings or, in the absence of retained earnings, as a charge against additional paid-in-capital over an expected 12-month period leading up to a business combination.
The Company will have only 12 months from the closing of the IPO (or up to 18 months from the closing of the IPO if the Company extend the period of time to consummate a Business Combination by two extensions of three months) (the “Combination Period”) to complete the initial Business Combination. If the Company has not completed the initial Business Combination within the Combination Period, the Company will: (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem the public shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest (which interest shall be net of taxes payable, and less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses) divided by the number of then outstanding public shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public shareholders’ rights as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any), subject to applicable law, and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the Company’s Board of Directors, liquidate and dissolve, subject in each case to the Company’s obligations under British Virgin Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law.
F-5
The underwriters, the Sponsor, officers and directors have agreed to (i) to waive their redemption rights with respect to their Founder Shares (as defined in Note 5), private placement shares, Representative Shares and public shares in connection with the completion of the initial Business Combination and (ii) to waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to their Founder Shares and private placement shares if the Company fails to complete the initial Business Combination within the Combination Period (although they will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to any public shares they hold if the Company fails to complete the initial Business Combination within the Combination Period). If the Company submits the initial Business Combination to the public shareholders for a vote, the underwriters, the Sponsor, officers and directors have agreed (and their permitted transferees will agree), pursuant to the terms of a letter agreement entered into with the Company, to vote any Founder Shares, private placement shares, and Representative Shares held by them and any public shares purchased during or after the IPO (including in open market and privately-negotiated transactions, aside from shares they may purchase in compliance with the requirements of Rule 14e-5 under the Exchange Act, which would not be voted in favor of approving the Business Combination transaction) in favor of the initial Business Combination.
The Company’s Sponsor has agreed that it will be liable to the Company if and to the extent any claims by a vendor for services rendered or products sold to the Company, or a prospective target business with which the Company has discussed entering into a transaction agreement, reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account to below (i) $10.00 per public share or (ii) such lesser amount per public share held in the Trust Account as of the date of the liquidation of the Trust Account due to reductions in the value of the trust assets, in each case net of the interest which may be withdrawn to pay taxes, except as to any claims by a third party who executed a waiver of any and all rights to seek access to the Trust Account and except as to any claims under the Company’s indemnity of the underwriters of the IPO against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act. Moreover, in the event that an executed waiver is deemed to be unenforceable against a third party, the Sponsor will not be responsible to the extent of any liability for such third -party claims. The Company has not independently verified whether the Sponsor has sufficient funds to satisfy their indemnity obligations and believes that the Sponsor’s only assets are securities of the Company. The Company has not asked the Sponsor to reserve for such obligations.
Going Concern Consideration
As of June 16, 2025, the Company had cash of $1,919,995 and a working capital of $1,743,079. The Sponsor has agreed to loan the Company up to $350,000 to be used for a portion of the expenses of the IPO. The loan is non-interest bearing, unsecured and shall be payable promptly after the date on which the Company consummates an initial public offering of its securities or the date on which the Company determines not to conduct an initial public offering of its securities. As of June 16, 2025, the Company had borrowed $79,122 under the promissory note, which is due on demand.
Subsequent to the consummation of the IPO, the Company’s liquidity has been satisfied through the net proceeds from the IPO and the Private Placement. The Company has incurred and expects to continue to incur significant professional costs to remain as a publicly traded company and to incur significant transaction costs in pursuit of the consummation of a Business Combination.
The Company initially has until June 16, 2026 to consummate the initial Business Combination (assuming no extensions). If the Company does not complete a Business Combination, the Company will wind up, dissolve and liquidate pursuant to the terms of its amended and restated memorandum and articles of association. Notwithstanding management’s belief that the Company would have sufficient funds to execute its business strategy, there is a possibility that business combination might not happen within the 12-month period from the date of the auditors’ report. Management has determined that the mandatory liquidation, should a business combination not occur, and potential subsequent dissolution, raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Therefore, management believes that it would be prudent to include in its disclosure language about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern until the earlier of the consummation of the Business Combination or the date the Company is required to liquidate. No adjustments have been made to the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities should the Company be required to liquidate after June 16, 2026 (assuming no extensions).
Risks and Uncertainties
Various social and political circumstances in the U.S. and around the world (including rising trade tensions between the U.S. and China, and other uncertainties regarding actual and potential shifts in the U.S. and foreign, trade, economic and other policies with other countries), may contribute to increased market volatility and economic uncertainties or deterioration in the U.S. and worldwide.
F-6
As a result of these circumstances and the ongoing Russia/Ukraine, Hamas/Israel conflicts and/or other future global conflicts, the Company’s ability to consummate a Business Combination, or the operations of a target business with which the Company ultimately consummates a Business Combination, may be materially and adversely affected. In addition, the Company’s ability to consummate a transaction may be dependent on the ability to raise equity and debt financing which may be impacted by these events, including as a result of increased market volatility, or decreased market liquidity in third-party financing being unavailable on terms acceptable to the Company or at all. The impact of this action and potential future sanctions on the world economy and the specific impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or ability to consummate a Business Combination are not yet determinable. The financial statement does not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Note 2 — Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying financial statement is presented in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC.
Emerging Growth Company Status
The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart our Business Startups Act of 2012, (the “JOBS Act”), and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.
Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of the Company’s financial statement with another public company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the financial statement in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statement. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
F-7
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. The Company had $1,919,995 in cash and no cash equivalents as of June 16, 2025.
Cash and Investment Held in Trust Account
At June 16, 2025, the assets in the Trust Account were held in cash.
Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash accounts in a financial institution, which, at times, may exceed the Federal Depository Insurance Coverage of $250,000. The Company has not experienced losses on these accounts.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under FASB ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the balance sheet, primarily due to its short-term nature.
The Company applies ASC 820, which establishes a framework for measuring fair value and clarifies the definition of fair value within that framework. ASC 820 defines fair value as an exit price, which is the price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the Company’s principal or most advantageous market in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The fair value hierarchy established in ASC 820 generally requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. Observable inputs reflect the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability and are developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity. Unobservable inputs reflect the entity’s own assumptions based on market data and the entity’s judgments about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability and are to be developed based on the best information available in the circumstances.
Level 1—Assets and liabilities with unadjusted, quoted prices listed on active market exchanges. Inputs to the fair value measurement are observable inputs, such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2—Inputs to the fair value measurement are determined using prices for recently traded assets and liabilities with similar underlying terms, as well as direct or indirect observable inputs, such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals.
Level 3—Inputs to the fair value measurement are unobservable inputs, such as estimates, assumptions, and valuation techniques when little or no market data exists for the assets or liabilities.
Class A Ordinary Shares Subject to Possible Redemption
The Company accounts for Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in ASC 480. Class A ordinary shares subject to mandatory redemption (if any) is classified as a liability instrument and is measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable ordinary shares (including ordinary shares that features redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the Company’s control) is classified as temporary equity. At all other times, ordinary shares is classified as shareholders’ equity. The Class A ordinary shares features certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to the occurrence of uncertain future events.
F-8
In accordance with the SEC and its guidance on redeemable equity instruments, which has been codified in ASC 480-10-S99, redemption provisions not solely within the control of a company require ordinary shares subject to redemption to be classified outside of permanent equity. Given that the 5,500,000 Class A ordinary shares sold as part of the Company’s IPO were issued with other freestanding instruments (i.e., public units), the initial carrying value of Class A ordinary shares classified as temporary equity has been allocated to the proceeds determined in accordance with ASC 470-20. The Company’s Class A ordinary shares is subject to ASC 480-10-S99. If it is probable that the equity instrument will become redeemable, the Company has the option to either (i) accrete changes in the redemption value over the period from the date of issuance (or from the date that it becomes probable that the instrument will become redeemable, if later) to the earliest redemption date of the instrument or (ii) recognize changes in the redemption value immediately as they occur and adjust the carrying amount of the instrument to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. The Company has elected to recognize the changes in redemption value in additional paid-in capital (or accumulated deficit in the absence of additional paid-in capital) over an expected 12-month period, which is the initial period that the Company has to complete a Business Combination.
Over-allotment Option Liability
The Company accounts for over-allotment as either equity-classified or liability-classified instrument based on an assessment of the over-allotment option’s specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (“ASC 480”) and ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”). The assessment considers whether the over-allotment option is a freestanding financial instrument pursuant to ASC 480, meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and whether the over-allotment option meets all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the over-allotment option is indexed to the Company’s own ordinary shares, among other conditions for equity classification. This assessment is conducted at the time of over-allotment option issuance and as of each subsequent quarterly period end date while the over-allotment option is outstanding.
For over-allotment option that meets all of the criteria for equity classification, it is recorded as a component of additional paid-in capital at the time of issuance. For over-allotment option that does not meet all the criteria for equity classification, they are required to be recorded as a liability at its initial fair value on the date of issuance, and each balance sheet date thereafter. Changes in the estimated fair value of the over-allotment option are recognized as a non-cash gain or loss on the statements of operations.
The Company accounted for the over-allotment option (see Note 6) in accordance with the guidance contained in ASC 815-40. The over-allotment is not considered indexed to the Company’s own ordinary shares, and as such, it does not meet the criteria for equity treatment and is recorded as a liability.
Deferred Offering Costs
The Company complies with the requirements of FASB ASC Topic 340-10-S99-1, “Other Assets and Deferred Costs – SEC Materials” (“ASC 340-10-S99”) and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 5A, “Expenses of Offering”. Deferred offering costs were $1,518,116 consisting of $550,000 underwriting commissions, $544,500 the Representative Shares and $423,616 legal and other offering expenses that are directly related to the IPO and charged to shareholders’ equity upon the completion of the IPO.
Income Taxes
The Company follows the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes under FASB ASC 740, “Income Taxes.” Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the unaudited condensed financial statements carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that included the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.
F-9
ASC Topic 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. The Company’s management determined that the British Virgin Islands is the Company’s major tax jurisdiction. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. As of June 16, 2025, there were no unrecognized tax benefits and no amounts accrued for interest and penalties. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviation from its position. The Company’s management does not expect that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits will materially change over the next twelve months.
The Company is considered to be a British Virgin Islands business company with no connection to any other taxable jurisdiction and is presently not subject to income taxes or income tax filing requirements in the British Virgin Islands or the United States. As such, the Company’s tax provision was zero for the period presented.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The Company’s management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards if currently adopted would have a material effect on the accompanying financial statement.
Note 3 — Initial Public Offering
On June 16, 2025, the Company sold 5,500,000 Units at a price of $10.00 per Unit. Each Unit consists of one Class A ordinary share with no par value and one right (the “Public Right”). Each Public Right entitles the holder to receive one-tenth (1/10) of one Class A ordinary share upon the consummation of the Company’s initial Business Combination. The Company will not issue fractional shares upon conversion of the rights, as disclosed in Note 7.
The Company paid an underwriting fee of $550,000 in cash at the closing of the IPO.
Note 4 — Private Placement
Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, the Sponsor purchased an aggregate of 277,000 Private Placement Units at a price of $10.00 per unit for an aggregate purchase price of $2,770,000. Each Private Placement Unit was identical to the units sold in the IPO, except as described below.
There will be no redemption rights or liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to the Founder Shares, private placement shares or private placement rights. The rights will expire worthless if the Company does not consummate a Business Combination within the allotted 12-month period (or up to 18 months from the completion of the IPO if the Company extends the period of time to consummate a Business Combination by two extensions of three months each).
F-10
The Private Placement Units, private placement shares, private placement rights and the Class A ordinary shares underlying such rights will not be transferable, assignable or salable by the Sponsor until the completion of the Company’s initial Business Combination, except to permitted transferees.
Note 5 — Related Party Transactions
Founder Shares
On December 13, 2024, the Company issued to the Sponsor 1,581,250 Class B ordinary shares with no par value (the “Founder Shares”) for an aggregated consideration of $25,000, or approximately $0.016 per share, of which an aggregate of up to 206,250 shares are subject to forfeiture if the over-allotment option is not exercised in full or in part by the underwriters.
The Sponsor has agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of its Founder Shares until the earlier to occur of: (A) six months after the completion of the initial Business Combination or (B) the date on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, share exchange, reorganization or other similar transaction after the initial Business Combination that results in all of the Company’s public shareholders having the right to exchange their ordinary shares for cash, securities or other property (the “Lock-up”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the last sale price of the Company’s ordinary shares equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for share splits, share capitalizations, rights issuances, subdivisions, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day after the initial Business Combination, the Founder Shares will be released from the Lock-up.
Promissory Note — Related Party
On January 1, 2025, the Sponsor agreed to loan the Company up to $350,000 to be used for a portion of the expenses of the IPO. The loan is non-interest bearing, unsecured and shall be payable promptly after the date on which the Company consummates an initial public offering of its securities or the date on which the Company determines not to conduct an initial public offering of its securities. The loan will be repaid upon the closing of the IPO out of the offering proceeds not held in the Trust Account. As of June 16, 2025, the Company had borrowed $79,122 under the promissory note, which is due on demand.
Working Capital Loans
In addition, in order to finance transaction costs in connection with an intended Business Combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor, or certain of the Company’s officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds as may be required (“Working Capital Loans”). If the Company completes the initial Business Combination, the Company may repay the Working Capital Loans. In the event that the initial Business Combination does not close, the Company may use a portion of the working capital held outside the Trust Account to repay the Working Capital Loans but no proceeds from the Trust Account would be used to repay the Working Capital Loans. Up to $1,150,000 of such Working Capital Loans may be convertible into units at a price of $10.00 per unit at the option of the lender. Such units would be identical to the Private Placement Units issued to the Sponsor. The terms of Working Capital Loans by the Company’s officers and directors, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such loans. As of June 16, 2025, the Company had no borrowings under the Working Capital Loans.
F-11
Extension Loan
The Company will have until 12 months from the closing of the IPO to consummate an initial Business Combination. However, if the Company anticipates that it may not be able to consummate the initial Business Combination within 12 months, it may extend the period of time to consummate a Business Combination up to two times, each by an additional three months (for a total of up to 18 months to complete a Business Combination). Pursuant to the terms of the amended and restated memorandum and articles of association and the trust agreement entered into between the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company on the date of the IPO, in order to extend the time available for the Company to consummate the initial Business Combination, the Sponsor or its affiliates or designees, upon two days advance notice prior to the applicable deadline, must deposit into the Trust Account $550,000, or up to $632,500 if the underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised in full ($0.10 per share in either case) on or prior to the date of the applicable deadline, for each three month extension (or up to an aggregate of $1,100,000 (or $1,265,000 if the underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised in full), or $0.20 per share if the Company extends for the full six months). Any such payments would be made in the form of a loan (the “Extension Loans”). Any such loans will be non-interest bearing and payable upon the consummation of the initial Business Combination. If the Company completes the initial Business Combination, it would repay such loaned amounts out of the proceeds of the Trust Account released to the Company. If the Company does not complete a Business Combination, the Company will not repay such loans. Furthermore, the letter agreement with the initial shareholders contains a provision pursuant to which the Sponsor has agreed to waive its right to be repaid for such loans out of the funds held in the Trust Account in the event that the Company does not complete a Business Combination. The Sponsor and its affiliates or designees are not obligated to fund the Trust Account to extend the time for the Company to complete the initial Business Combination. As of June 16, 2025, the Company had no borrowings under the Extension Loans.
Note 6 — Commitments and Contingencies
Registration Rights
The holders of the Founder Shares, Private Placement Units, shares being issued to the underwriters of the IPO, and units that may be issued on conversion of Working Capital Loans (and in each case holders of their component securities, as applicable) will be entitled to registration rights pursuant to a registration rights agreement entered into on the effective date of the IPO requiring the Company to register such securities for resale (in the case of the Founder Shares, only after conversion to the Class A ordinary shares). The holders of these securities are entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short form demands, that the Company registers such securities. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to the completion of the initial Business Combination and rights to require the Company to register for resale such securities pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act. However, the registration rights agreement provides that the Company will not permit any registration statement filed under the Securities Act to become effective until termination of the applicable Lock-up period. Notwithstanding the above, the shares to be issued to the underwriters in the IPO will be further subject to the limitations on registration requirements imposed by FINRA Rule 5110(g)(8). The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.
Right of First Refusal
For a period beginning on the closing of the IPO and ending 12 months from the closing of a Business Combination, the Company has granted the underwriter a right of first refusal to act as sole underwriter , sole book-running manager and sole placement agent for any and all future private or public equity, equity-linked, convertible and debt offerings during such 12 months from the closing of a Business Combination of the Company, or any successor to or any subsidiary of the Company. For the sake of clarity, this right of refusal shall encompass the time period leading up to the closing of the Business Combination while the Company is still a special purpose acquisition company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that a target company – in connection with a Business Combination – sources a private placement of public equity (a “PIPE”), the aforementioned right of refusal reference shall not apply in such a limited instance. In accordance with FINRA Rule 5110(g)(6)(A), such right of first refusal shall not have a duration of more than three years from the commencement of sales in the IPO.
F-12
Underwriter Agreement
The underwriters have a 45-day option from the date of the IPO to purchase up to an additional 825,000 Units to cover over-allotments, if any.
The underwriters were paid a cash underwriting discount of one percent (1%) of the gross proceeds of the IPO, or $550,000 upon the closing of the IPO. Additionally, the underwriter was entitled and received 247,500 Representative Shares that were registered in the IPO, for no consideration, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement. The underwriter has agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any such shares until the completion of the initial Business Combination. In addition, the underwriter has agreed (and its permitted transferees will agree) (i) to waive its redemption rights with respect to such shares in connection with the completion of the Company’s initial Business Combination and (ii) to waive its rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to such shares if the Company fails to complete its initial Business Combination within the Combination Period.
The Representative Shares have been deemed compensation by FINRA and are therefore subject to a lock-up for a period of 180 days immediately following the date of the commencement of sales in the IPO pursuant to FINRA Rule 5110(e)(1). These securities will not be the subject of any hedging, short sale, derivative, put or call transaction that would result in the economic disposition of the securities by any person for a period of 180 days immediately following the effective date of the registration statement of which the IPO forms a part, nor may they be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated for a period of 180 days immediately following the effective date of the registration statement of which the IPO forms a part except to any underwriter and selected dealer participating in the Proposed Public Offering and their officers, partners, registered persons or affiliates.
Note 7 — Shareholder’s Equity
Preferred Shares — The Company is authorized to issue a total of 1,000,000 preferred shares with no par value. As of June 16, 2025, there were no preferred shares issued or outstanding.
Class A Ordinary Shares — The Company is authorized to issue a total of 100,000,000 Class A ordinary shares with no par value. As of June 16, 2025, there were 524,500 Class A ordinary shares issued or outstanding, excluding 5,500,000 Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption.
Class B Ordinary Shares — The Company is authorized to issue a total of 10,000,000 Class B ordinary shares with no par value. On December 13, 2024, the Company issued 1,581,250 Class B ordinary shares to the Sponsor for $25,000, or approximately $0.016 per share, including an aggregate of up to 206,250 shares subject to forfeiture if the over-allotment option is not exercised by the underwriters in full. As of June 16, 2025, there were 1,581,250 Class B ordinary shares issued and outstanding including an aggregate of up to 206,250 shares subject to forfeiture if the over-allotment option is not exercised by the underwriters in full.
The Class B ordinary shares will automatically convert into Class A ordinary shares at the time of the initial Business Combination, or earlier at the option of the holder, on a one-for-one basis, subject to adjustment pursuant to certain anti-dilution right, share splits, share capitalizations, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like, and subject to further adjustment as provided herein and in the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association. In the case that additional Class A ordinary shares, or equity-linked securities, are issued or deemed issued in excess of the amounts sold in the IPO and related to the closing of the initial Business Combination, the ratio at which the Class B ordinary shares shall convert into Class A ordinary shares will be adjusted (unless the holders of a majority of the issued and outstanding Class B ordinary shares agree to waive such anti-dilution adjustment with respect to any such issuance or deemed issuance) so that the number of Class A ordinary shares issuable upon conversion of all Class B ordinary shares will equal, in the aggregate, 20% of the sum of all ordinary shares issued and outstanding upon completion of the IPO, including pursuant to the over-allotment option, plus all Class A ordinary shares issued or deemed issued, or issuable upon the conversion or exercise of any equity-linked securities issued or deemed issued in connection with or in relation to the initial Business Combination, excluding any shares or equity-linked securities issued, or to be issued, to any seller in the initial Business Combination or any private placement-equivalent securities issued to the Sponsor or its affiliates upon conversion of loans made to the Company.
Prior to the initial Business Combination, only holders of the Founder Shares will have the right to vote on the election of directors. Holders of the public shares will not be entitled to vote on the election of directors during such time. These provisions of the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association may only be amended by a resolution passed by holders of at least a majority of the ordinary shares who are eligible to vote and attend and vote in a general meeting of the shareholders. With respect to any other matter submitted to a vote of the shareholders, including any vote in connection with the initial Business Combination, except as required by law, holders of the Founder Shares and holders of the public shares will vote together as a single class, with each share entitling the holder to one vote.
F-13
Rights — Each holder of a right will receive one-tenth (1/10) of one Class A ordinary share upon consummation of the initial Business Combination, even if the holder of such right redeemed all Class A ordinary shares held by it in connection with the initial Business Combination. No additional consideration will be required to be paid by a holder of rights in order to receive its additional shares upon consummation of an initial Business Combination, as the consideration related thereto has been included in the unit purchase price paid for by investors in the IPO. If the Company enters into a definitive agreement for a Business Combination in which the Company will not be the surviving entity, the definitive agreement will provide for the holders of rights to receive the same per share consideration the holders of the Class A ordinary shares will receive in the transaction on an as-converted into Class A ordinary share basis, and each holder of a right will be required to affirmatively convert its rights in order to receive the 1/10 share underlying each right (without paying any additional consideration) upon consummation of the Business Combination. More specifically, the right holder will be required to indicate its election to convert the rights into underlying shares as well as to return the original rights certificates to the Company.
If the Company is unable to complete an initial Business Combination within the required time period and the Company liquidates the funds held in the Trust Account, holders of rights will not receive any such funds with respect to their rights, nor will they receive any distribution from the Company’s assets held outside of the Trust Account with respect to such rights, and the rights will expire worthless.
As soon as practicable upon the consummation of the initial Business Combination, the Company will direct registered holders of the rights to return their rights to the rights agent. Upon receipt of the rights, the rights agent will issue to the registered holder of such rights the number of full Class A ordinary shares to which it is entitled. The Company will notify registered holders of the rights to deliver their rights to the rights agent promptly upon consummation of such Business Combination and have been informed by the rights agent that the process of exchanging their rights for Class A ordinary shares should take no more than a matter of days. The foregoing exchange of rights is solely ministerial in nature and is not intended to provide the Company with any means of avoiding the Company’s obligation to issue the shares underlying the rights upon consummation of the initial Business Combination. Other than confirming that the rights delivered by a registered holder are valid, the Company will have no ability to avoid delivery of the shares underlying the rights. Nevertheless, there are no contractual penalties for failure to deliver securities to the holders of the rights upon consummation of an initial Business Combination.
The shares issuable upon conversion of the rights will be freely tradable (except to the extent held by affiliates of the Company). The Company will not issue fractional shares upon conversion of the rights. Fractional shares will either be rounded down to the nearest whole share or otherwise addressed in accordance with the applicable provisions of British Virgin Islands law. As a result, you must hold rights in multiples of 10 in order to receive shares for all of the investors’ rights upon closing of a Business Combination. If the Company is unable to complete an initial Business Combination within the required time period and the Company liquidates the funds held in the Trust Account, holders of rights will not receive any of such funds with respect to their rights, nor will they receive any distribution from the Company’s assets held outside of the Trust Account with respect to such rights, and the rights will expire worthless. Further, there are no contractual penalties for failure to deliver securities to the holders of the rights upon consummation of an initial Business Combination. Accordingly, the rights may expire worthless.
Note 8 —Fair Value Measurements
The following table presents information about the Company’s liabilities that are measured at fair value on June 16, 2025, and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation inputs the Company utilized to determine such fair value:
| As of June 16, 2025 |
Significant Other Unobservable Inputs (Level 3) |
|||||||
| Liabilities: | ||||||||
| Over-allotment option liabilities | $ | 74,829 | $ | 74,829 | ||||
F-14
The over-allotment option was accounted for as liabilities in accordance with ASC 815-40 and are presented within liabilities on the balance sheet. The over-allotment liabilities are measured at fair value at inception and on a recurring basis, with changes in fair value presented within change in fair value of over-allotment liabilities in the statement of operations.
The Company used a Black-Scholes model to value the over-allotment option. The Company allocated the proceeds received from (i) the sale of Units (which is inclusive of one Class A ordinary share and one right to receive one-tenth of one Class A ordinary share upon the consummation of an initial business combination) and (ii) the sale of Private Placement Warrants, first to the warrants based on their fair values as determined at initial measurement, with the remaining proceeds allocated to Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption (temporary equity) based on their relative fair values at the initial measurement date. The over-allotment option liabilities were classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy at the measurement dates due to the use of unobservable inputs. Inherent in pricing models are assumptions related to expected share-price volatility, expected life and risk-free interest rate. The Company estimates the volatility of its ordinary share based on historical volatility that matches the expected remaining life of the option. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury zero-coupon yield curve on the grant date for a maturity similar to the expected remaining life of the option. The expected life of the option is assumed to be equivalent to their remaining contractual term.
The key inputs into the Black-Scholes model were as follows at initial measurement of the over-allotment option:
| Input | As of June 16, 2025 | |||
| Risk-free interest rate | 4.06 | % | ||
| Expected term (years) | 0.12 | |||
| Expected volatility | 4.6 | % | ||
| Exercise price | $ | 10.0 | ||
| Fair value of over-allotment unit | $ | 0.097 | ||
The following table provides a summary of the changes in the fair value of the Company’s Level 3 financial instruments that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis:
| Over- allotment Liability | ||||
| Initial measurement of over-allotment option on June 16, 2025 | $ | 74,829 | ||
| Fair value as of June 16, 2025 | $ | 74,829 | ||
Note 9 — Segment Information
ASC Topic 280, Segment Reporting, establishes standards for companies to report, in their financial statements, information about operating segments, products, services, geographic areas, and major customers. Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise that engage in business activities from which it may recognize revenues and incur expenses, and for which separate financial information is available that is regularly evaluated by the Company’s chief operating decision maker, or group, in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance.
The Company’s CODM has been identified as the Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, who reviews the operating results for the Company as a whole to make decisions about allocating resources and assessing financial performance. Accordingly, management has determined that the Company only has one reportable segment.
The CODM assesses performance for the single segment and decides how to allocate resources based on net income or loss that also is reported on the statement of operations as net income or loss. The measure of segment assets is reported on the balance sheet as total assets. When evaluating the Company’s performance and making key decisions regarding resource allocation, the CODM reviews several key metrics included in net income or loss and total assets, which include the following:
| June 16, 2025 | ||||
| Cash | $ | 1,919,995 | ||
| Prepaid expenses | 12,338 | |||
| Cash held in Trust Account | $ | 55,000,000 | ||
| Total Assets | $ | 56,932,333 | ||
The CODM reviews the position of total assets available with the Company to assess if the Company has sufficient resources available to discharge its liabilities.
Note 10—Subsequent Events
In accordance with ASC 855, “Subsequent Events”, the Company evaluated subsequent events and transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date up to the date that the financial statement was issued. Based on this review, the Company did not identify any subsequent events that would have required adjustment or disclosure in the financial statement.
