The General Meeting was held on Thursday, November 14, 2024 at 11:00 a.m., Eastern Time. There was no change to the location or the record date of the General Meeting.

On November 12, 2024, the Company received a letter from the Listing Qualifications Department of Nasdaq stating that, pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule IM-5101-2 (“Rule IM-5101-2”), the staff of Nasdaq (“Staff”) had determined that (i) the Company’s securities will be delisted from Nasdaq, (ii) trading of the Company’s Class A ordinary shares and units will be suspended at the opening of business on November 19, 2024 and (iii) a Form 25-NSE will be filed with the SEC, which will remove the Company’s securities from listing and registration on Nasdaq. Under Rule IM-5101-2, a special purpose acquisition company must complete one or more business combinations within 36 months of the effectiveness of its initial public offering registration statement. Since the Company failed to complete its initial Business Combination by November 4, 2024, the Staff concluded that the Company did not comply with Rule IM-5101-2 and that the Company’s securities are now subject to delisting.
Nasdaq suspended that trading of the Company’s Class A ordinary shares and units at the opening of business on November 19, 2024.
Following the suspension of trading on Nasdaq, the Company’s Class A ordinary shares began trading on the OTCQB Market operated on The OTC Market systems (“OTC”) under the symbol “CBRRF.” The Company’s warrants and units began trading on the Expert Market operated by OTC under the symbols “CBRGF” and “CBGGF,” respectively. There can be no assurance that a broker will continue to make a market in the Company’s securities or that trading of the Class A ordinary shares will continue on an over-the-counter market or elsewhere.
On April 11, 2025, Nasdaq completed the delisting by filing a Form 25-NSE with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), which removed the Company’s securities from listing and registration on Nasdaq.

with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of its Initial Public Offering and the sale of Private Placement Warrants

offer will be made by the Company. The Public Shareholders will be entitled to redeem their Public Shares for a pro rata portion of the
amount then in the Trust Account. The Company expects the pro rata price to be at least $

Emerging Growth Company
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 of 2002, 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 an emerging growth 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 unaudited condensed 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.
Risks and Uncertainties
Management continues to evaluate the current or anticipated military conflicts and geopolitical tensions, including the conflicts between Russia and Ukraine, Israel and Hamas, and Israel, United States and Iran, as well as terrorism, sanctions or other geopolitical events, together with adverse developments in the economy and capital markets, including rising energy costs, inflation, and interest rates, in the United States and globally, on the industry and has concluded that while it is reasonably possible that these events could have a negative effect on the Company’s financial position, results of its operations and/or search for a target company, the specific impact is not readily determinable as of the date of the unaudited condensed financial statements. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

In connection with our assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-15, “Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern,” the Company has determined that the liquidity condition and the date for mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution (as described above) raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. No adjustments have been made to the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities should the Company be required to liquidate after November 15, 2026. The unaudited condensed financial statements do not include any adjustment that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

Investment Company Act
Under the current rules and regulations of the SEC we are not deemed an investment company for purposes of the Investment Company Act; however, on March 30, 2022, the SEC proposed new rules (the “Proposed Rules”) relating, among other matters, to the circumstances in which SPACs such as the Company could potentially be subject to the Investment Company Act and the regulations thereunder. The Proposed Rules provide a safe harbor for companies from the definition of “investment company” under Section 3(a)(1)(A) of the Investment Company Act, provided that a SPAC satisfies certain criteria. To comply with the duration limitation of the proposed safe harbor, a SPAC would have a limited time period to announce and complete a de-SPAC transaction. Specifically, to comply with the safe harbor, the Proposed Rules would require a company to file a Current Report on Form 8-K announcing that it has entered into an agreement with a target company for an initial Business Combination no later than 18 months after the effective date of the SPAC’s registration statement for its IPO. The Company would then be required to complete its initial Business Combination no later than 24 months after the effective date of such registration statement. There is currently uncertainty concerning the applicability of the Investment Company Act to a SPAC, including this Company. The Company has not yet entered into a definitive Business Combination agreement, however, there is a risk that the Company may not complete an initial Business Combination within 24 months of such date. As a result, it is possible that a claim could be made that the Company has been operating as an unregistered investment company. If the Company were deemed to be an investment company for purposes of the Investment Company Act, the Company may be forced to abandon its efforts to complete an initial Business Combination and instead be required to liquidate. If the Company is required to liquidate, the investors would not be able to realize the benefits of owning stock in a successor operating business, including the potential appreciation in the value of our stock and warrants following such a transaction.
The Investment Company Act defines an investment company as any issuer which:
| (i) | is or holds itself out as being engaged primarily, or proposes to engage primarily, in the business of investing, reinvesting, or trading in securities; |
| (ii) | is engaged or proposes to engage in the business of issuing face-amount certificates of the installment type, or has been engaged in such business and has any such certificate outstanding; or |
| (iii) | is
engaged or proposes to engage in the business of investing, reinvesting, owning, holding, or trading in securities, and owns or proposes
to acquire investment securities having a value exceeding |
The Company has assessed its primary line of business, and the value of its investment securities as compared to the value of total assets to determine whether the Company may be deemed an investment company. The longer that the funds in the Trust Account are held in money market funds, there is a greater risk that the Company may be considered an unregistered investment company. Currently, the funds in the Trust Account are held in mutual funds composed of U.S. treasury securities and meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act.

The Investment Company Act defines an investment company as any issuer which:
| 1. | Is or holds itself out as being engaged primarily in the business of investing, reinvesting, or trading in securities; |
| 2. | Is engaged or proposes to engage in the business of issuing face-amount certificates of the installment type; or |
| 3. | Owns
or proposes to acquire investment securities having a value exceeding |
In January 2024, the SEC adopted rules providing guidance for SPACs analyzing their status under the Investment Company Act of 1940. This guidance emphasizes enhanced investor protections, transparency in business combination transactions, and the importance of ensuring compliance with the definition of a “business” under ASC 805-10-55. The safe harbor provision under the guidance requires SPACs to:
| ● | Identify and enter into a de-SPAC transaction agreement within 18 months of their IPO; and |
| ● | Complete the de-SPAC transaction within 24 months of their IPO. |
Failure to meet these criteria could result in the SPAC being deemed an unregistered investment company under the Act, requiring liquidation and potentially preventing completion of the proposed transaction. The Company completed its IPO within the SEC’s safe harbor timeline, and has not yet entered into a business combination, less than 48 months after its IPO. The transaction is expected to close within the SEC’s prescribed 48-month timeline. Currently, the Company does not hold itself out as being engaged in investing, reinvesting, or trading in securities. All funds in the Trust Account is held in mutual funds composed of U.S. treasury securities that comply with Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act. The funds are not invested in marketable securities to avoid the risk of being deemed an unregistered investment company.
Note 2 — Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed interim financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP. In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed interim financial statements reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments necessary for the fair statement of the balances and results for the period presented. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected through December 31, 2026.
17
The accompanying unaudited condensed interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K filed by the Company with the SEC on April 1, 2026.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of unaudited condensed financial statements in conformity with 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 unaudited condensed financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Making estimates require management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.
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. As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company had cash equivalents.
Cash and Investments Held in Trust Account
At June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the assets
held in the Trust Account, amounting to $
Assets held in the Trust Account will not be released from the Trust Account until the completion of its initial Business Combination or to the public shareholders until the earliest of the completion of an initial Business Combination and in connection with those Class A ordinary shares that such shareholders properly elect to redeem.
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
Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) coverage limit of $
Financial Instruments
The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities which qualify as financial instruments under the ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements” (“ASC Topic 820”), equal or approximate the carrying amounts represented in the balance sheets primarily due to their short-term nature.
Fair Value Measurements
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received for sale of an asset or paid for transfer of a liability, in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. GAAP establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). These tiers consist of:
| ● | Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical instruments in active markets; |
| ● | Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable such as quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and |
| ● | Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions, such as valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable. |
18
In some circumstances, the inputs used to measure fair value might be categorized within different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In those instances, the fair value measurement is categorized in its entirety in the fair value hierarchy based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
Offering Costs Associated with the Initial Public Offering
The Company complies with the requirements of ASC 340-10-S99-1. Offering costs consisted of legal, accounting, underwriting fees and other costs incurred that were directly related to the Initial Public Offering. Upon completion of the Initial Public Offering, offering costs were allocated to the separable financial instruments issued in the Initial Public Offering based on a relative fair value basis, compared to total proceeds received. Offering costs allocated to the derivative warrant liabilities were charged to operations. Offering costs associated with the Class A ordinary shares were charged against the carrying value of Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering.
Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company does not use derivative instruments to hedge exposures to cash flow, market or foreign currency risks. The Company evaluates all of the financial instruments, including issued stock purchase warrants, and forward purchase agreements, to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives, pursuant to ASC Topic 480 and ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging” (“ASC Topic 815”). The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, will be re-assessed at the end of each reporting period. Derivative warrant liabilities will be classified as non-current liabilities as their liquidation is not reasonably expected to require the use of current assets or require the creation of current liabilities.
The
Class A Ordinary Shares Subject to Possible Redemption
The Company accounts for the Class A ordinary
shares subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in ASC Topic 480. Class A ordinary shares subject to mandatory
redemption (if any) is classified as liability instruments and are measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable Class A ordinary
shares (including Class A 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 our control) are classified as temporary equity. At all other
times, Class A ordinary shares are classified as shareholders’ equity. The Company’s Class A ordinary shares feature certain
redemption rights that are considered to be outside of our control and subject to the occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly,
as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025,

On May 12, 2023, the Company held the Special
Meeting at which the Company’s shareholders approved a proposal to amend the Company’s existing Amended and Restated Memorandum
and Articles of Association to extend from May 15, 2023 to November 15, 2023 (the “Extended Date”) and to allow the board
of directors of the Company, without another shareholder vote, to elect to further extend the date to consummate an initial Business
Combination after the Extended Date up to three times, by an additional month each time, up to February 15, 2024, the date by which,
if the Company has not consummated an initial Business Combination, the Company must: (a) cease all operations except for the purpose
of winding up; (b) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem the shares sold in the Company’s
Initial Public Offering; and (c) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the Company’s
remaining shareholders and the directors, liquidate and dissolve, subject in each case to its obligations under Cayman Islands law to
provide for claims of creditors and in all cases subject to the other requirements of applicable law. In connection with such shareholder
vote, the holders of an aggregate of

aggregate of

2025 Meeting. In connection with the October 2025 Meeting, the holders of an aggregate of
The Company recognizes changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and adjusts the carrying value of the Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. This method would view the end of the reporting period as if it were also the redemption date for the security. Effective with the closing of the Initial Public Offering (including exercise of the over-allotment option), the Company recognized the accretion from initial book value to redemption amount, which resulted in charges against additional paid-in capital (to the extent available) and accumulated deficit.
As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the amounts of Class A ordinary shares reflected on the balance sheets are reconciled in the following:
| Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption, December 31, 2025 | $ | |||
| Plus: | ||||
| Proceeds received from Sponsor for Trust Account contribution | ||||
| Deemed dividend – increase in redemption value of Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption | ||||
| Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption, March 31, 2026 | $ | |||

| Proceeds received from Sponsor for Trust Account contribution | ||||
| Deemed dividend – increase in redemption value of Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption | ||||
| Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption, June 30, 2026 | $ |
The calculation of diluted (loss) income per ordinary share does not consider the effect of the warrants issued in connection with the Initial Public Offering and the Private Placement Warrants since the exercise of the warrants is contingent upon the occurrence of future events. As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company did not have any dilutive securities or other contracts that could, potentially, be exercised or converted into ordinary shares that then share in the earnings of the Company. As a result, diluted net (loss) income per ordinary share is the same as basic net income per ordinary share for the periods presented.

Income Taxes
ASC Topic 740 accounts for income taxes requiring an asset and liability approach to financial accounting and reporting for income taxes including the parameters for the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities. The Company is exempt from Cayman Islands as well as US taxation. Accordingly, there is no reported tax provision nor any net deferred tax asset or liability position in the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In March 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-01, “Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope Applications of Profits Interests and Similar Awards” (“ASU 2024-01”). ASU 2024-01 adds an example to Topic 718 which illustrates how to apply the scope guidance to determine whether profits interests and similar awards should be accounted for as share-based payment arrangements under Topic 718 or under other U.S. GAAP. ASU 2024-01 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2025, although early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted ASU 2024-01 effective January 1, 2026. The adoption of ASU 2024-01 did not have a material impact on the Company's unaudited condensed financial statements.
In March 2024, the FASB issued ASU No 2024-02, “Codification Improvements - Amendments to Remove References to the Concepts Statements” (“ASU 2024-02”). ASU 2024-02 removes references to various Concepts Statements. In most instances, the references are extraneous and not required to understand or apply the guidance. ASU 2024-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. ASU 2024-02 can be applied prospectively or retrospectively. Upon adoption, ASU 2024-01 is not expected to have an impact on the Company’s unaudited condensed financial statements.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, “Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40).” This standard requires disclosure of specific information about costs and expenses and becomes effective January 1, 2027. Upon adoption, ASU 2024-03 is not expected to have an impact on the Company’s unaudited condensed financial statements.
21
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-04, “Debt - Debt with Conversions and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20): Induced Conversions of Convertible Debt Instruments” (“ASU 2024-04”). ASU 2024-04 clarifies the requirements for accounting for induced conversions of convertible debt instruments, specifically addressing the recognition and measurement of inducement offers made to holders of convertible debt. The amendments provide guidance on determining whether an inducement offer should be accounted for as an extinguishment of debt or as a modification, and clarify the related disclosure requirements. The Company adopted ASU 2024-04 effective January 1, 2026. The adoption of ASU 2024-04 did not have a material impact on the Company's unaudited condensed financial statements.
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. The amendments in this ASU require disclosures, on an annual and interim basis, of significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating officer decision maker (“CODM”), as well as the aggregate amount of other segment items included in the reported measure of segment profit or loss. The ASU requires that a public entity disclose the title and position of the CODM and an explanation of how the CODM uses the reported measure(s) of segment profit or loss in assessing segment performance and deciding how to allocate resources. Public entities will be required to provide all annual disclosures currently required by Topic 280 in interim periods, and entities with a reportable segment are required to provide all the disclosures required by the amendments in this ASU and existing segment disclosures in Topic 280. The Company adopted ASU 2023-07 effective January 1, 2025. The adoption of ASU 2023-07 did not have a material impact on the Company's unaudited condensed financial statements, as the Company operates as a single reportable segment.
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 unaudited condensed financial statements.

The Company accounts for its Exchange Note within
the scope of ASC Topic 470. Pursuant to ASC Topic 470, the new or modified terms of the Exchange Note when compared with the original
terms of the Fulton AC Note are not substantially different; therefore, the Company will account for the Exchange Agreement as a debt

The Forward Purchase Securities were terminated on December 29, 2023. 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. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.

Note 9 — Fair Value Measurements
The following table presents information about the Company’s assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques that the Company utilized to determine such fair value.
The carrying amounts of prepaid expenses, accounts payable, notes payable, accrued expenses and accrued expense-related party approximate their fair values due to their short term maturities and the nature of these instruments.

Transfers to/from Levels 1, 2, and 3 are recognized at the beginning of the reporting period. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company transferred the Public Warrants from Level 1 to Level 2 due to the warrants being quoted on the OTC market rather than an active exchange. During the same period, the Private Placement Warrants were transferred from Level 2 to Level 3 because the Company concluded that the valuation should be based on a model using significant unobservable inputs, rather than the market price of the Public Warrants.
Level 1 assets consists of investments in U.S. treasury securities. The Company uses inputs such as actual trade data, quoted market prices from dealers or brokers, and other similar sources to determine the fair value of its investments.
The initial estimated fair value as of November 15, 2021, of the Public Warrants, the Private Placement Warrants, and the Forward Purchase Agreement is measured at fair value using a Monte Carlo simulation, determined using Level 3 inputs. Subsequently, the fair value of the Public Warrants has been determined based on quoted market prices in the OTC market and classified as a Level 2 fair value measurement. As of June 30, 2026, the fair value of the Private Placement Warrants and the contingently issuable Private Placement Warrants were determined using a valuation model incorporating significant unobservable inputs and classified as a Level 3 fair value measurement. As of December 31, 2025, the fair value of the Private Placement Warrants and the contingently issuable Private Placement Warrants were determined based on the quoted market price of the Public Warrants and classified as a Level 2 fair value measurement.

Note 10 — Segment Information
ASC Topic 280, “Segment Reporting,” establishes standards for companies to report in their unaudited condensed financial statement information about operating segments, products, services, geographic areas, and major customers. Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise 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.
When evaluating the Company’s performance and making key decisions regarding resource allocation the CODM reviews several key metrics, which include the following:

| Income from investments held in the Trust Account | $ | $ | $ | $ | ||||||||||||
The key measures of segment profit or loss reviewed by our CODM are interest earned on the Trust Account and general and administrative expenses. The CODM reviews interest earned on the Trust Account to measure and monitor shareholder value and determine the most effective strategy of investment with the Trust Account funds while maintaining compliance with the trust agreement. General and administrative expenses are reviewed and monitored by the CODM to manage and forecast cash to ensure enough capital is available to complete a business combination within the business combination period. The CODM also reviews general and administrative costs to manage, maintain and enforce all contractual agreements to ensure costs are aligned with all agreements and budget.

Liquidity and Going Concern
As of June 30, 2026, we had cash of $147,356 and working capital deficit of $952,568.
The Company’s liquidity needs prior to the consummation of the Initial Public Offering were satisfied through the payment of $25,000 from CBG and CB Co-Investment to cover for certain expenses on behalf of the Company in exchange for issuance of Class B ordinary shares (as defined in Note 5) and a loan from related party of approximately $244,000. The Company fully repaid the Note on November 17, 2021. Subsequent to the consummation of the Initial Public Offering, the Company’s liquidity has been satisfied through the net proceeds from the consummation of the Initial Public Offering, the Private Placement held outside of the Trust Account and the issuance of the Convertible Note, the Additional Convertible Note and the Fulton AC Note. On December 29, 2023, Fulton AC agreed to loan the Company up to $1.5 million pursuant to the Fulton AC Note at no interest in the same form and on the same terms as the Additional Convertible Note with CBG which was terminated on December 29, 2023.
On May 9, 2024, the Company entered into the Exchange Agreement with Fulton, pursuant to which Fulton and the Company agreed to Exchange the Fulton AC Note for the Exchange Note. The Exchange Note is substantially similar to the Fulton AC Note, except that (i) the governing law and jurisdiction was changed from New York to Delaware; (ii) the maturity date was extended to the later of (x) June 29, 2025 and (y) the consummation of the Company’s initial Business Combination; and (iii) the holder may exchange the Exchange Note, in whole or in part, to satisfy the purchase price of securities sold by the Company in a subsequent offering, if any, in whole or in part, at a premium of 35%. At this time the Company does not have any agreements, written or oral, for any subsequent offering of Company securities. No new consideration was paid in conjunction with the Exchange. As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company has an outstanding balance of $368,680 under the Exchange Note.
On June 26, 2024, Phytanix Bio (“Phytanix”) agreed to loan the Company $1,590,995, pursuant to an unsecured non - interest bearing promissory note (the “Bridge Financing Note”). The maturity date of the Bridge Financing Note is the later of (x) June 29, 2025 and (y) the consummation of the Company’s initial Business Combination. The Bridge Financing Note may not be repaid with funds from the trust account that the Company established for the benefit of its public holders. The proceeds from the Bridge Financing Note will be used (i) to pay off certain working capital loans issued by the Company to Fulton AC, (ii) to pay for certain fees and expenses incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated in the Bridge Financing Note and the Company’s initial Business Combination and (iii) for other general corporate purposes. As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the outstanding balance under the Bridge Financing Note was $1,023,235 in the accompanying balance sheets.
34
On September 30, 2025, the Company issued an unsecured, non-interest bearing promissory note (the “C/M Note”) to the C/M C/M Lender in the aggregate principal amount of $1,250,000, for an aggregate purchase price of $1,000,000. The C/M Note is due and payable in full on the maturity date, June 30, 2026; provided that, upon the occurrence of an event of default, the outstanding principal and any other amounts outstanding under the C/M Note will become due and payable without demand. The C/M Note may be prepaid at any time without penalty. All payments due under the C/M Note rank junior to certain existing indebtedness of the Company and senior to all other indebtedness of the Company and its subsidiaries. The proceeds of the C/M Note will be used to pay for certain fees and expenses incurred in connection with the Company’s initial Business Combination and for other general corporate purposes. On May 28, 2026, the Company entered into Amendment No. 1 to the Note. Pursuant to Amendment No. 1, among other things, (i) the maturity date of the Note was extended from June 30, 2026 to November 15, 2026 and (ii) the event of default for failure to establish and authorize a certificate of designation for a new series of preferred shares of the Company on or before November 15, 2025 was removed.
As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the outstanding balance under the C/M Note was $1,511,255 and $1,078,066, respectively, in the accompanying balance sheets.
The Company has until November 15, 2026 to consummate an initial Business Combination. If the Company has not consummated a Business Combination by November 15, 2026, the Company must (a) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up; (b) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem the Public Shares; and (c) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the Company’s remaining shareholders and the directors, liquidate and dissolve, subject in each case to its obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and in all cases subject to the other requirements of applicable law.
In connection with our assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-15, “Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern,” the Company has determined that the liquidity condition and the date for mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. No adjustments have been made to the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities should the Company be required to liquidate after November 15, 2026. The unaudited condensed financial statements do not include any adjustment that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
Results of Operations
Our entire activity since inception up to June 30, 2026 was in preparation for our Initial Public Offering and since the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the search for a prospective Business Combination. We will not generate any operating revenues until the closing and completion of our initial Business Combination, at the earliest.
For the three months ended June 30, 2026, we had a net loss of approximately $166,000, which consisted of interest expense - debt issuance cost of $101,000, general and administrative expenses of $112,000 and general and administrative expenses to related party of $30,000, offset by income from investments held in Trust Account of approximately $7,000, gain from the change in fair value of derivative liabilities of approximately $66,000, and gain from the change in fair value of contingently issuable private placement warrants of approximately $3,000.
For the three months ended June 30, 2025, we had a net income of approximately $5,800, which consisted of investment income on the Trust Account of approximately $56,000, gain from the change in fair value of derivative liabilities of approximately $242,000 and gain from the change in fair value of contingently issuable private placement warrants of approximately $13,000, offset by general and administrative expenses of approximately $275,000 and general and administrative expenses to related party of $30,000.
For the six months ended June 30, 2026, we had a net loss of approximately $603,000, which consisted of loss from the change in fair value of derivative liabilities of approximately $37,000, interest expense - debt issuance cost of approximately $183,000, loss from the change in fair value of contingently issuable private placement warrants of approximately $2,000, and general and administrative expenses of approximately $334,000 and general and administrative expenses to related party of $60,000, offset by income from investments held in Trust Account of approximately $14,000.
For the six months ended June 30, 2025, we had a net loss of approximately $358,000, which consisted of general and administrative expenses of approximately $467,000 and general and administrative expenses to related party of $60,000, offset by investment income on the Trust Account of approximately $111,000, gain from the change in fair value of derivative liabilities of approximately $55,000 and gain from the change in fair value of contingently issuable private placement warrants of approximately $3,000.
Contractual Obligations
Registration Rights and Shareholder Rights
The holders of Class B ordinary shares, Private Placement Warrants and warrants that may be issued upon conversion of Working Capital Loans (and any shares of ordinary shares issuable upon the exercise of the Private Placement Warrants or warrants issued upon conversion of the Working Capital Loans and upon conversion of the Class B ordinary shares), were entitled to registration rights pursuant to a registration and shareholder rights agreement signed upon the consummation of the Initial Public Offering. These holders will be entitled to certain demand and “piggyback” registration rights. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.

Critical Accounting Policies
Derivative Financial Instruments
We do not use derivative instruments to hedge exposures to cash flow, market or foreign currency risks. We evaluate all of our financial instruments, including issued stock purchase warrants, and forward purchase agreements, to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives, pursuant to ASC Topic 480 and ASC Topic 815. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, will be re-assessed at the end of each reporting period. Derivative warrant liabilities will be classified as non-current liabilities as their liquidation is not reasonably expected to require the use of current assets or require the creation of current liabilities.
The 22,050,000 warrants that were issued in connection with the Initial Public Offering (including the 11,500,000 warrants included in the Units and the 10,550,000 Private Placement Warrants) and the 4,000,000 Forward Purchase Securities, were recognized as derivative liabilities in accordance with ASC Topic 815. Accordingly, the Company recognized the warrant instruments as liabilities at fair value and adjust the instruments to fair value at each reporting period. The liabilities will be subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet date until exercised. The fair value of the Forward Purchase Securities, Public Warrants and the Private Placement Warrants were initially measured using a Monte Carlo simulation. The fair value of Public Warrants issued in connection with the Initial Public Offering have subsequently been measured based on the listed market price of such Public Warrants. On December 26, 2023, in connection with the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Forward Purchase Securities were terminated and the Convertible Note was converted into contingently issuable private placement warrants. As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the fair value of Private Placement Warrants was determined based on the quoted price of the Public Warrants.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
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 unaudited condensed financial statements.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of June 30, 2026, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as defined in Item 303(b)(1)(ii)(B) of Regulation S-K.
JOBS Act
The JOBS Act contains provisions that, among other things, relax certain reporting requirements for qualifying public companies. We qualify as an “emerging growth company” and under the JOBS Act are allowed to comply with new or revised accounting pronouncements based on the effective date for private (not publicly traded) companies. We are electing to delay the adoption of new or revised accounting standards, and as a result, we may not comply with new or revised accounting standards on the relevant dates on which adoption of such standards is required for non- emerging growth companies. As a result, the financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with new or revised accounting pronouncements as of public company effective dates.

Additionally, we are in the process of evaluating the benefits of relying on the other reduced reporting requirements provided by the JOBS Act. Subject to certain conditions set forth in the JOBS Act, if, as an “emerging growth company,” we choose to rely on such exemptions we may not be required to, among other things, (i) provide an auditor’s attestation report on our system of internal controls over financial reporting pursuant to Section 404, (ii) provide all of the compensation disclosure that may be required of non-emerging growth public companies under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, (iii) comply with any requirement that may be adopted by the PCAOB regarding mandatory audit firm rotation or a supplement to the auditor’s report providing additional information about the audit and the financial statements (auditor discussion and analysis) and (iv) disclose certain executive compensation related items such as the correlation between executive compensation and performance and comparisons of the CEO’s compensation to median employee compensation. These exemptions will apply for a period of five years following the completion of our Initial Public Offering or until we are no longer an “emerging growth company,” whichever is earlier.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Not required for smaller reporting companies.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2026, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that as of June 30, 2026, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective because of a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting related to the adequate review and reconciliation of its liabilities and prepaid expenses.
In light of this material weakness, we performed additional analysis as deemed necessary to ensure that our financial statements were prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Accordingly, management believes that the financial statements included in this Quarterly Report present fairly in all material respects our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the period presented.
Management has undertaken remediation steps to address the material weakness, including increasing management review processes over liabilities. This remediation is an ongoing process and there can be no assurance that it will effectively address the material weaknesses.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Except as described above, there were no changes to our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2026 that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
None.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
Factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q include the risk factors described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on April 1, 2026. You should review the risk factors described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on April 1, 2026 for a discussion of important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results described in or implied by the forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. If any of the risks described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on April 1, 2026 actually occur, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
None.
Item 3. Defaults Upon Senior Securities
None.
Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosures
None.
Item 5.
On November 12, 2025, the Company received a written notice (the “OTCQB Notice”) from the OTC Markets Group (“OTC”) notifying the Company that, because the Company’s public float as it is currently displayed on the Company profile is less than 10% of the total shares outstanding, the Company is not currently in compliance with the public float requirement for continued listing on OTCQB Venture Market (“OTCQB”), as set forth in Section 2 of the OTCQB listing standards (the “Minimum Public Float Requirement”).
The OTCQB Notice also indicated that the Company, pursuant to Section 4.1(D) of the OTCQB listing standards, had 90 days, or until February 10, 2026, to regain compliance with the Minimum Public Float Requirement or the Company may be removed from the OTCQB marketplace.
On February 11, 2026, the Company received a written notice from OTC indicating that the cure period had expired. Consequently, the Company’s securities were moved from the OTCQB market to the OTCID Basic Market (“OTCID”) on February 12, 2026. OTC further notified the Company that if it would like to be moved back to OTCQB, it must increase public float to at least 10% of the total shares outstanding and meet all of the eligibility requirements under Section 1 of the OTCQB listing standards.
The Company will continue to file its periodic reports and remain subject to the reporting obligations under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The Company is actively evaluating strategic options to regain compliance with relevant listing standards and remains committed to upholding transparency and stability for all stakeholders.
The transition of the Company’s Class A ordinary shares and warrants to the OTCID is not expected to affect the Company’s business operations or its reporting requirements under the rules of the SEC.
