NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 2025
Note 1 — Organization and Business Operations
Constellation Acquisition Corp I (the “Company”) is a blank check company incorporated in the Cayman Islands on November 20, 2020. The Company was formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses (a “Business Combination”).
As of June 30, 2025, the Company had not commenced any operations. All activity through June 30, 2025 relates to the Company’s formation and the initial public offering (the “IPO” or “Initial Public Offering”) which is described below, and identifying a target company for a Business Combination. The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of a Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company generates non-operating income in the form of interest income from the proceeds derived from the IPO.
The registration statement for the Company’s
IPO was declared effective by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on January 26, 2021 (the “Effective
Date”). On January 29, 2021, the Company consummated the IPO of
Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, the
Company consummated the sale of
Transaction costs of the IPO amounted to $
Following the closing of the IPO on January 29,
2021, $
The proceeds deposited in the Trust Account could become subject to the claims of the Company’s creditors, if any, which could have priority over the claims of the public shareholders.
The Company will provide its 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 initial Business Combination or (ii) by means of a tender offer. The
decision as to whether the Company will seek shareholder approval of a proposed initial Business Combination or conduct a tender offer
will be made by the Company, solely in its discretion. The shareholders will be entitled to redeem their shares for a pro rata portion
of the amount then on deposit in the Trust Account (initially approximately $
5
If the Company is unable to complete a 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 (10) business days, 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 earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay the income taxes, if any, divided by the number of the then-outstanding Public Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public shareholders’ rights as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any); and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the remaining shareholders and the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”), liquidate and dissolve, subject in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii), to the obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law.
There will be no redemption rights or liquidating distributions with respect to the Private Placement Warrants, which will expire worthless if the Company fails to consummate an initial Business Combination within the Combination Period.
The Sponsor, officers and directors have agreed to waive their redemption rights with respect to their Founder Shares (as defined below) and any Public Shares purchased during or after the IPO in connection with (i) the completion of the initial Business Combination, (ii) a shareholder vote to approve an amendment to the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, and (iii) waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to their Founder Shares if the Company fails to complete its initial Business Combination within the Combination Period.
The Company’s Sponsor has agreed that it
will be liable to the Company if and to the extent any claims by a third party for services rendered or products sold to the Company,
or a prospective target business with which the Company has entered into a written letter of intent, confidentiality or similar agreement
or Business Combination agreement, reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account to below the lesser of (i) $
On January 26, 2023, the Old Sponsor underwent a reorganization pursuant to which the limited partners of the Old Sponsor transferred all of their limited partnership interests to Constellation Sponsor LP, a Delaware limited partnership (the “Sponsor”). On January 26, 2023, the Old Sponsor liquidated pursuant to applicable law by the retirement of the general partner of the Old Sponsor (the second to last partner of the Sponsor) and all Securities held by the Old Sponsor were distributed by operation of law to its sole remaining limited partner, the Sponsor, following which, on January 30, 2023, control of the Sponsor was transferred to affiliates of Antarctica Capital Partners, LLC, including Antarctica Endurance Manager, LLC the current general partner of the Sponsor.
On January 27, 2023, the Company held an extraordinary
general meeting of shareholders of the Company (the “Extension Meeting”) to amend the Company’s amended and restated
memorandum and articles of association (the “2023 Articles Amendment”) to extend the date by which the Company has to consummate
a Business Combination (the “Termination Date”) from January 29, 2023 (the “2023 Original Termination Date”) to
April 29, 2023 (the “2023 Articles Extension Date”) and to allow the Company, without another shareholder vote, to elect to
extend the Termination Date to consummate a Business Combination on a monthly basis for up to nine times by an additional one month each
time after the 2023 Articles Extension Date, by resolution of the Company’s Board if requested by the Sponsor, and upon five days’
advance notice prior to the applicable Termination Date, or a total of up to twelve (12) months after the 2023 Original Termination Date,
unless the closing of the Company’s initial Business Combination shall have occurred prior to such date (the “2023 Extension
Amendment Proposal”). Upon each of the nine one-month extensions, the Sponsor or one or more of its affiliates, members or third-party
designees may contribute to the Company $

The Board approved the voluntary delisting on
December 20, 2023, and the Company provided notice of the voluntary delisting to NYSE on December 20, 2023. The Company filed a Form 25
with the SEC to effect the delisting of its Securities on January 2, 2024. The delisting became effective on January 12, 2024 when the
Form 25 took effect. The last day of trading of its Securities on NYSE was January 12, 2024, and the Securities were suspended pre-market
on January 16, 2024. On January 16, 2024, the Company’s Securities began trading on the OTCQX where the Class A ordinary shares
and Units began trading on the OTCQX® Best Market (“OTCQB”) under their new trading symbols “CSTAF” and “CSTUF,”
respectively, and the warrants started trading on the OTCQB® Venture Market (“OTC Venture”) under its new trading symbol
“CSTWF.” In connection with the extraordinary general meeting of the shareholders on January 29, 2024 (the “2024 Shareholder
Meeting”) the Company adhered to the initial or continued trading requirements of OTCQX.
On January 23, 2024 and January 25, 2024, the Company held extraordinary general meetings and only voted on the Adjournment Proposal (as
defined below) to adjourn the 2024 Shareholder Meeting to January 25, 2024 and January 29, 2024, respectively. On January 29, 2024, the

and articles of association (the “2024 Articles Amendment”) to extend the date by which the Company has to consummate a Business
Combination from January 29, 2024 (the “2024 Original Termination Date”) to February 29, 2024 (the “Articles Extension
Date”) and to allow the Company, without another shareholder vote, to elect to extend the Termination Date to consummate a Business
Combination on a monthly basis for up to eleven (11) times by an additional one month each time after the Articles Extension Date, by
resolution of the Board, if requested by the Sponsor, and upon five days’ advance notice prior to the applicable Termination Date,
until January 29, 2025, or a total of up to twelve (12) months after the 2024 Original Termination Date, unless the closing of a Business
Combination shall have occurred prior thereto (the “2024 Extension Amendment Proposal”); (B) to amend, by way of special resolution,
the amended and restated memorandum and articles of association to eliminate the limitation that the Company may not redeem Class A ordinary

On March 10, 2025, the Company’s Class A ordinary shares started trading on the OTC Pink Market (“OTC Pink”) and the Company’s Units started trading on the OTCQB. The main difference between OTCQB and OTC Pink from OTCQX is that securities listed on the OTCQB and OTC Pink undergo additional quality review and have different listing standards than those on the OTCQX, although all are tiers of the OTC Markets. The trading symbols for the Class A ordinary shares and Units remained the same.
The transition to OTC Pink and OTCQB from OTCQX of the Company’s Class A ordinary shares and Units is not expected to affect the Company’s business operations, its relationships with partners or employees or its current SEC reporting obligations.
On March 27, 2025, the Company drew additional Extension Funds, as approved by unanimous resolution of the extension committee of the Company’s board of directors, dated March 27, 2025, pursuant to the 2024 Note, which Extension Funds the Company deposited into the Company’s Trust Account for its public shareholders. This deposit enabled the Company to extend the date by which it must complete its initial Business Combination from March 29, 2025 to April 29, 2025 (the “Second 2025 Extension”). The Second 2025 Extension was the second of eleven one-month extensions permitted under the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association and provides the Company with additional time to complete its initial Business Combination.
On April 29, 2025, the Company drew additional Extension Funds, as approved by unanimous resolution of the extension committee of the Company’s board of directors, dated April 21, 2025, pursuant to the 2024 Note, which Extension Funds the Company deposited into the Company’s Trust Account for its public shareholders.

Risks and Uncertainties
Management acknowledges that the Company depends on a variety of U.S. and multi-national financial institutions for banking services. Market conditions can impact the viability of these institutions, which in effect will affect the Company’s ability to maintain and provide assurances that the Company can access its cash and cash equivalents in a timely manner or at all. Any inability to access or delay in accessing these funds could adversely affect the Company’s liquidity, business and financial condition.
In February 2022, the Russian Federation and Belarus commenced a military action with the country of Ukraine. As a result of this action, various nations, including the United States, have instituted economic sanctions against the Russian Federation and Belarus. Further, the impact of this action and related sanctions on the world economy is not determinable as of the date of these unaudited condensed financial statements. The specific impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows is also not determinable as of the date of these unaudited condensed financial statements.
In October 2023, the Israel-Hamas war commenced. As a result of the war, instability in the Middle East and various other regions of the world may occur and effect the world economy. Various nations, including the United States, as a reaction to the Israel-Hamas war have begun taking actions that may further affect the world economy. Such effects on the world economy are not determinable as of the date of these unaudited condensed financial statements. The specific impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows is also not determinable as of the date of these unaudited condensed financial statements.
In 2024 there have been growing tensions between China and Taiwan. As a result of these growing tensions and the potential for it to grow into a conflict, instability in Asia and various other regions of the world may occur and effect the world economy and relationships between trading nations. Various nations, including the United States, may take actions that may further affect the world economy as a result of such tensions. Such effects on the world economy are not determinable as of the date of these unaudited condensed financial statements. The specific impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows is also not determinable as of the date of these unaudited condensed financial statements.
Liquidity and Going Concern Consideration
As of June 30, 2025, the Company had $
The Company is within 12 months of its mandatory liquidation as of the time of filing this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (the “Quarterly Report”). In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with Accounting Standards Update 2014-15, “Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern,” the liquidity condition and mandatory liquidation raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern until the earlier of the consummation of the Business Combination or the Termination Date.
These unaudited condensed financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recovery of the recorded assets or the classification of the liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
As such, management plans to consummate a Business Combination prior to the mandatory liquidation date. If the Company’s estimates of the costs of identifying a target business, undertaking in-depth due diligence and negotiating a Business Combination are less than the actual amount necessary to do so, the Company may have insufficient funds available to operate its business prior to an initial Business Combination. Moreover, the Company may need to obtain additional financing either to complete an initial Business Combination or because it becomes obligated to redeem a significant number of its Public Shares upon completion of an initial Business Combination, in which case the Company may issue additional securities or incur debt in connection with such initial Business Combination.

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 unaudited condensed financial statements 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 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 expenses during the reporting period. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.
Making estimates requires 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 unaudited condensed financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. One of the more significant accounting estimates included in these unaudited condensed financial statements is the determination of the fair value of the warrant liability. Such estimates may be subject to change as more current information becomes available and, 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. The Company did not have any cash equivalents as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.
Cash Held in Trust Account
At June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the assets
held in the Trust Account were held in a bank deposit account. During the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company withdrew $
Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject
the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash accounts and a Trust Account in a financial institution, which, at times,
may exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation coverage of $
Warrant Liabilities
The Company evaluated the Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants (collectively, “warrants,” which are discussed in Notes 3, 4, and 8) in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 815-40, “Derivatives and Hedging — Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity” (“ASC 815-40”), and concluded that a provision in the warrant agreement, dated January 26, 2021, related to certain tender or exchange offers precludes the warrants from being accounted for as components of equity. As the warrants meet the definition of a derivative as contemplated in ASC 815, the warrants are recorded as derivative liabilities on the balance sheets and measured at fair value at inception (on the date of the IPO) and at each reporting date in accordance with ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurement” (“ASC 820”), with changes in fair value recognized in the unaudited condensed statements of operations in the period of change.
Convertible Promissory Note
The Company analyzed the convertible promissory notes to assess if the fair value option was appropriate, due to the substantial premium which results in an offsetting entry to additional paid-in capital and under the related party guidance which precludes the fair value option, it was determined the fair value option was not appropriate. As such, the Company accounted for the convertible promissory notes, analyzing the conversion options embedded in convertible notes in accordance with ASC 815. ASC 815 generally requires companies to bifurcate conversion options embedded in convertible notes from their host instruments and to account for them as freestanding derivative financial instruments.
Bifurcated embedded derivatives are initially recorded at fair value and are then revalued at each reporting date with changes in the fair value reported as non-operating income or expense. When the equity or convertible debt instruments contain embedded derivative instruments that are to be bifurcated and accounted for as liabilities, the total proceeds received are first allocated to the fair value of all the bifurcated derivative instruments. The remaining proceeds, if any, are then allocated to the host instruments themselves, usually resulting in those instruments being recorded at a discount from their face value. The discount from the face value of the convertible debt, together with the stated interest on the instrument, is amortized over the life of the instrument through periodic charges to interest expense.
It was determined that the conversion option was de minimis, as such the Company has recorded the Convertible Promissory Notes at par value.
Offering Costs Associated with the Initial Public Offering
The Company complies with the requirements of
the ASC 340-10-S99-1. Offering costs consisted of legal, accounting, underwriting fees and other costs incurred through the IPO that
were directly related to the IPO. Offering costs are allocated to the separable financial instruments issued in the IPO based on a relative
fair value basis, compared to total proceeds received. Offering costs associated with warrant liabilities are expensed as incurred, presented
as non-operating expenses in the unaudited condensed statements of operations. Transaction costs amounted to $

Class A Ordinary Shares Subject to Possible Redemption
All of the
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. Increases or decreases in the carrying amount of the Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption are affected by charges against additional paid-in capital and accumulated deficit.
The Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption reflected on the balance sheets as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 are reconciled in the following table:

Income Taxes
ASC 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. There were no unrecognized tax benefits as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024. The Company’s management determined that the Cayman Islands is the Company’s only major tax jurisdiction. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. No amounts were accrued for the payment of interest and penalties as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024. 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 has been subject to income tax examinations by major taxing authorities since inception.
The Company is considered to be an exempted Cayman Islands company with no connection to any other taxable jurisdiction and is presently not subject to income taxes or income tax filing requirements in the Cayman Islands or the United States. As such, the Company’s tax provision was zero for the periods presented. The Company’s management does not expect that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits will materially change over the next twelve (12) months.
Net (Loss) Income per Ordinary Share
The Company complies with accounting and disclosure
requirements of the Financial Accounting Standards Board ASC Topic 260, “Earnings Per Share.” Net (loss) income per ordinary
share is computed by dividing net (loss) income by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period, excluding
ordinary shares subject to forfeiture. The Company has not considered the effect of the warrants sold in the IPO and the private placement
to purchase an aggregate of

Basic and diluted net (loss) income per ordinary share for redeemable Class A ordinary shares and non-redeemable Class A ordinary shares and Class B ordinary shares are calculated by dividing net (loss) income attributable to the Company by the weighted average number of redeemable Class A ordinary shares and non-redeemable Class A ordinary shares and Class B ordinary shares outstanding, allocated proportionally to each class of ordinary shares. This presentation assumes a Business Combination as the most likely outcome. Accretion associated with the redeemable Class A ordinary shares is excluded from earnings per share as the redemption value approximates fair value.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company follows the guidance in ASC 820 for its financial assets and liabilities that are re-measured and reported at fair value at each reporting period, and non-financial assets and liabilities that are re-measured and reported at fair value at least annually.
The fair value of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities reflects management’s estimate of amounts that the Company would have received in connection with the sale of the assets or paid in connection with the transfer of the liabilities in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In connection with measuring the fair value of its assets and liabilities, the Company seeks to maximize the use of observable inputs (market data obtained from independent sources) and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs (internal assumptions about how market participants would price assets and liabilities). The following fair value hierarchy is used to classify assets and liabilities based on the observable inputs and unobservable inputs used in order to value the assets and liabilities:
| Level 1 — | Valuations based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access. Valuation adjustments and block discounts are not being applied. Since valuations are based on quoted prices that are readily and regularly available in an active market, valuation of these securities does not entail a significant degree of judgment. | |
| Level 2 — | Valuations based on (i) quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities, (ii) quoted prices in markets that are not active for identical or similar assets, (iii) inputs other than quoted prices for the assets or liabilities, or (iv) inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by market through correlation or other means. | |
| Level 3 — | Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. |
The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under ASC Topic 820 (other than warrant liability) approximates the carrying amounts represented in the accompanying balance sheets, primarily due to their short-term nature.
See Note 8 for additional information on assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
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 single reportable segment are required to provide all the disclosures required by the amendments in this ASU and existing segment disclosures in Topic 280. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. ASU 2023-07 became effective as of December 31, 2024 and the Company’s management adopted ASU 2023-07 in its financial statements and related disclosures (see Note 9).

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 “piggyback” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to the completion of a Business Combination and rights to require the Company to register for resale such Securities pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act. In addition, if the Sponsor affiliates acquire shares in the IPO, they would become affiliates (as defined in the Securities Act) of the Company following the IPO, and the Company would file a registration statement following the IPO to register the resale of the Public Shares purchased by the Sponsor affiliates (or their nominees) in the IPO. The Sponsor affiliates will not be subject to any lock-up period with respect to any Public Shares they may purchase. The registration rights agreement does not contain liquidated damages or other cash settlement provisions resulting from delays in registering the Company’s Securities. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.

liability company (the “Investor”), pursuant to which the Investor agreed to contribute to the Old Sponsor an aggregate amount
in cash equal up to $
In connection with the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Investment Agreement, on January 26, 2023, the Old Sponsor underwent a reorganization pursuant to which the limited partners of the Old Sponsor transferred all of their limited partnership interests to the Sponsor. On January 26, 2023, the Old Sponsor was liquidated pursuant to applicable law by the retirement of the general partner of the Old Sponsor (the second to last partner of the Old Sponsor) and all Securities held by the Old Sponsor were distributed by operation of law to its sole remaining limited partner, the Sponsor, following which, on January 30, 2023, control of the Sponsor was transferred to affiliates of Antarctica Capital Partners, LLC, including Antarctica Endurance Manager, LLC the general partner of the Sponsor.
The Investment Agreement contains customary representations and warranties of the parties, including, among others, with respect to corporate organization, corporate authority, and compliance with applicable laws. The representations and warranties of each party set forth in the Investment Agreement were made solely for the benefit of the other parties to the Investment Agreement, and shareholders of the Company are not third-party beneficiaries of the Investment Agreement. In addition, such representations and warranties (a) are subject to materiality and other qualifications contained in the Investment Agreement, which may differ from what may be viewed as material by shareholders of the Company, (b) were made only as of the date of the Investment Agreement or such other date as is specified in the Investment Agreement and (c) may have been included in the Investment Agreement for the purpose of allocating risk between the parties rather than establishing matters as facts. Accordingly, the Investment Agreement is included with this filing only to provide shareholders of the Company with information regarding the terms of the Investment Agreement, and not to provide shareholders of the Company with any other factual information regarding any of the parties or their respective businesses.
Letter Agreement
On January 30, 2023, the Company, the Old Sponsor, certain officers and directors of the Company, and other parties thereto (the “Insiders,” and together with the Old Sponsor, the “Letter Agreement Parties”) entered into an amendment to the Letter Agreement to allow the Old Sponsor to transfer its holdings in the Company, directly or indirectly, to affiliate(s) of Antarctica Capital Partners, LLC prior to the expiration of the applicable lock-up. In connection with the resignation of certain Insiders, the Letter Agreement Parties agreed that all Insiders that have resigned from their positions as officers and/or directors of the Company and that no longer hold Class B ordinary shares shall no longer be parties to the Letter Agreement.

Note 8 — 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 at June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation inputs the Company utilized to determine such fair value:
| Description | Level | June 30, 2025 | Level | December 31, 2024 | ||||||||||||
| Liabilities | ||||||||||||||||
| Public Warrant Liability | 2 | $ | 2 | $ | ||||||||||||
| Private Placement Warrant Liability | 2 | $ | 2 | $ | ||||||||||||
The warrants are accounted for as liabilities in accordance with ASC 815-40 and are presented within warrant liability on the balance sheets. The warrant 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 warrant liability in the unaudited condensed statements of operations.
The Company established the initial fair value for the Public Warrants on January 29, 2021, the date of the Company’s IPO, using a Monte Carlo simulation model, and for the Private Placement Warrants on January 29, 2021, using a Black-Scholes model. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the fair value of the Private Placement Warrants was valued utilizing the quoted market price of the Public Warrants, and the fair value of the Public Warrants by reference to the quoted market price of the Public Warrants. The Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants were classified as Level 3 at the initial measurement date. There were no transfers among fair value hierarchy during the period ended June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024. The Public Warrants are classified as Level 2 due to the lack of trading activity as of the reporting date.
Note 9 — Segment Information
ASC Topic 280, “Segment Reporting,” establishes standards for companies to report in their financial statement 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 chief operating decision
maker has been identified as the Chief Financial Officer, who reviews the assets, operating results, and financial metrics for the Company
as a whole to make decisions about allocating resources and assessing financial performance. Accordingly, management has determined that
there is only

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 unaudited condensed statements of operations
as net income or loss. The measure of segment assets is reported on the balance sheets as total assets.

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 or similar
transaction within the Combination Period.
All other segment items included in net income or loss are reported on the unaudited condensed statements of operations and described within their respective disclosures.
Note 10 — Subsequent Events
The Company evaluated subsequent events and transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date up to the date that the unaudited condensed financial statements were issued. Based on this review, other than as described below, the Company determined no events have occurred that would require adjustments to the disclosures in the unaudited condensed financial statements.
On July 16, 2025, the Company’s Public Warrants and Units started trading on the OTCID® Basic Market (“OTCID”). The main difference between OTCID from OTCQB is that securities listed on the OTCID undergo additional quality review and have different listing standards than those on the OTCQB, although all are tiers of the OTC Markets. The trading symbols for the Public Warrants and Units remained the same.
The transition to OTCID from OTCQB of the Company’s Public Warrants and Units did not affect the Company’s business operations, its relationships with partners or employees or its current SEC reporting obligations.
On July 28, 2025, the Company drew additional Extension Funds, as approved by unanimous resolution of the extension committee of the Company’s board of directors, dated July 28, 2025, pursuant to the 2024 Note, which Extension Funds the Company deposited into the Company’s Trust Account for its public shareholders. This deposit enables the Company to extend the date by which it must complete its initial business combination from July 29, 2025 to August 29, 2025 (the “Sixth 2025 Extension”). The Sixth 2025 Extension is the sixth of eleven one-month extensions permitted under the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association and provides the Company with additional time to complete its initial Business Combination.

Overview
We are a blank check company incorporated in Cayman Islands on November 20, 2020. We were formed for the purpose of effecting a Business Combination.
Our sponsor is Constellation Sponsor LP, a Delaware limited partnership. The registration statement for the Initial Public Offering was declared effective on January 26, 2021. On January 29, 2021, we consummated the Initial Public Offering of 31,000,000 Units, at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $310,000,000, and incurring offering costs of $17,586,741, inclusive of $10,850,000 in deferred underwriting commissions. On January 26, 2023, our Old Sponsor underwent a reorganization pursuant to which the limited partners of our Old Sponsor transferred all of their limited partnership interests to the Sponsor. On January 26, 2023, our Old Sponsor was liquidated pursuant to applicable law by the retirement of the general partner of our Old Sponsor (the second to last partner of our Sponsor) and all securities held by our Old Sponsor were distributed by operation of law to its sole remaining limited partner, the Sponsor, following which, on January 30, 2023, control of the Old Sponsor was transferred to affiliates of Antarctica Capital Partners, LLC, including Antarctica Endurance Manager, LLC the general partner of the Sponsor.
Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, we consummated the private placement of 5,466,667 Private Placement Warrants, at a price of $1.50 per Private Placement Warrants to our Old Sponsor, which are now held by our Sponsor, generating gross proceeds to us of $8,200,000.
Since the closing of the Initial Public Offering and the Private Placement, $310,000,000 ($10.00 per Unit) of the net proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and certain of the proceeds of the Private Placement was placed in the Trust Account and was invested in permitted United States “government securities” within the meaning of Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act having a maturity of 185 days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 promulgated under the Investment Company Act that invest only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations. On January 27, 2023, we liquidated the U.S. government treasury obligations or money market funds held in the Trust Account.
Our management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be applied generally toward consummating a Business Combination.
22
We will only have until the Termination Date to complete an initial Business Combination. If we do not complete a Business Combination by the Termination Date, we will (i) cease all operations except for the purposes of winding up; (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible, but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem the Public Shares for a per share pro rata portion of the Trust Account, including interest not previously released to us to fund our working capital requirements (less taxes payable) and (iii) as promptly as possible following such redemption, dissolve and liquidate the balance of our net assets to our remaining shareholders, as part of our plan of dissolution and liquidation. Our Sponsor and initial shareholders entered into the Letter Agreement with us, pursuant to which they have waived their rights to participate in any redemption with respect to their Founder Shares; however, if the initial shareholders or any of our officers, directors or affiliates acquire ordinary shares in or after the Initial Public Offering, they will be entitled to a pro rata share of the Trust Account upon our redemption or liquidation in the event we do not complete a Business Combination within the required time period. In the event of such distribution, it is possible that the per share value of the residual assets remaining available for distribution (including the Trust Account assets) will be less than the Initial Public Offering price per Unit in the Initial Public Offering.
On January 27, 2023, we held an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders to amend the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association to extend the date by which the Company has to consummate a Business Combination from January 29, 2023 to April 29, 2023 and to allow the Company, without another shareholder vote, to elect to extend the 2023 Termination Date to consummate a Business Combination on a monthly basis for up to nine times by an additional one month each time after the 2023 Articles Extension Date, by resolution of the board if requested by the Sponsor, and upon five days’ advance notice prior to the applicable Termination Date, until January 29, 2024, or a total of up to twelve months after the 2023 Termination Date, unless the closing of the Company’s Business Combination shall have occurred prior to such date. The shareholders of the Company approved the 2023 Extension Amendment Proposal at the Extension Meeting and on January 31, 2023, the Company filed the 2023 Articles Amendment with the Registrar of Companies of the Cayman Islands.
In connection with the vote at the Extension Meeting, the holders of 26,506,157 Class A ordinary shares of the Company properly exercised their right to redeem their shares for an aggregate price of approximately $10.167 per share, for an aggregate redemption amount of approximately $269,485,746. After the satisfaction of such redemptions, the balance in our Trust Account was approximately $46,138,503. On February 13, 2023, a total of $46,600,678.12 (the remaining trust balance), was placed in a U.S.-based trust account at Citibank, N.A., maintained by CST, acting as trustee.
In connection with the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Investment Agreement, on January 26, 2023, the Old Sponsor underwent a reorganization pursuant to which the limited partners of the Old Sponsor transferred all of their limited partnership interests to the Sponsor. On January 26, 2023, the Old Sponsor was liquidated pursuant to applicable law by the retirement of the general partner of the Old Sponsor (the second to last partner of the Sponsor) and all Securities held by the Old Sponsor were distributed by operation of law to its sole remaining limited partner, the Sponsor, following which, on January 30, 2023, control of the Old Sponsor was transferred to affiliates of Antarctica Capital Partners, LLC.
On December 20, 2023, the board approved the voluntary delisting of its Class A ordinary shares, Public Warrants and Units from the NYSE, and on January 16, 2024, the Company began trading its Class A ordinary shares and Units on OTCQB under the symbols “CSTAF” and “CSTUF,” respectively, and its Public Warrants on the OTC Venture under the symbol “CSTWF.”
On January 29, 2024, the Company held the 2024 Shareholder Meeting (A) to amend, by way of special resolution, the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association to extend the Termination Date by which the Company has to consummate a Business Combination from January 29, 2024 to February 29, 2024 and to allow the Company, without another shareholder vote, to elect to extend the Termination Date to consummate a Business Combination on a monthly basis for up to eleven times by an additional one month each time after the 2024 Articles Extension Date, by resolution of the directors, if requested by the Sponsor, and upon five days’ advance notice prior to the applicable Termination Date, until January 29, 2025, or a total of up to twelve months after the 2024 Original Termination Date, unless the closing of a Business Combination shall have occurred prior thereto; and (B) to amend, by way of special resolution, the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association to eliminate from the amended and restated memorandum and articles of association the limitation that the Company may not redeem Class A ordinary shares to the extent that such redemption would result in the Company having net tangible assets (as determined in accordance with Rule 3a51-1(g)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended), of less than $5,000,001 in order to allow the Company to redeem Public Shares irrespective of whether such redemption would exceed the Redemption Limitation. The shareholders of the Company approved the 2024 Extension Amendment Proposal and the 2024 Redemption Limitation Amendment Proposal at the 2024 Shareholder Meeting and on January 30, 2024, the Company filed the 2024 Articles Amendment with the Registrar of Companies of the Cayman Islands.
23
In connection with that vote to approve the 2024 Extension Amendment Proposal and the 2024 Redemption Limitation Amendment Proposal, the holders of 2,126,159 Class A ordinary shares properly exercised their right to redeem their shares for cash at a redemption price of approximately $11.13 per share, for an aggregate redemption amount of approximately $23,671,533. After the satisfaction of such redemptions and receipt of the initial deposit of $55,000 to the Trust account, the balance in our Trust Account was $26,415,545.
On January 30, 2024, the Sponsor converted an aggregate of 7,600,000 Class B ordinary shares into Public Shares on a one-for-one basis. The Sponsor waived any right to receive funds from the Trust Account with respect to the Public Shares received upon such conversion and acknowledged that such shares will be subject to all of the restrictions applicable to the original Class B ordinary shares under the terms of the Letter Agreement.
During 2024, the Board of the Company approved the First 2024 Extension on February 29, 2024, and the extension committee of the Board approved the Second 2024 Extension, Third 2024 Extension, Fourth 2024 Extension, Fifth 2024 Extension, Sixth 2024 Extension, Seventh 2024 Extension, Eighth 2024 Extension, Ninth 2024 Extension, Tenth 2024 Extension and Eleventh 2024 Extension on March 28, 2024, April 29, 2024, May 29, 2024, June 28, 2024, July 23, 2024, August 23, 2024, September 26, 2024, October 29, 2024, November 27, 2024 and December 20, 2024, respectively, resulting in a new Termination Date of January 29, 2025, and the Company drew an aggregate of $660,000 of funds pursuant to the 2024 Note. The 2024 Note does not bear interest and matures upon closing of the Company’s initial Business Combination. In the event that the Company does not consummate a Business Combination, the 2024 Note will be repaid only from amounts remaining outside of the Trust Account, if any.
On January 27, 2025, the Company held the 2025 Shareholder Meeting (A) to amend, by way of special resolution, the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association to extend the 2025 Termination Date by which the Company has to consummate a Business Combination from January 29, 2025 to February 28, 2025, or the 2025 Articles Extension Date, and to allow the Company, without another shareholder vote, to elect to extend the 2025 Termination Date to consummate a Business Combination on a monthly basis for up to eleven times by an additional one month each time after the 2025 Articles Extension Date, by resolution of the Company’s board of directors, if requested by the Sponsor and upon five days’ advance notice prior to the applicable Termination Date, until January 29, 2026, or a total of up to twelve months after the 2025 Termination Date, unless the closing of a Business Combination shall have occurred prior thereto; (B) to amend, by way of special resolution, the Company’s memorandum and articles of association to permit for the issuance of Class A ordinary shares to holders of the Company’s Class B ordinary shares upon the exercise of the right of a holder of the Class B ordinary shares to convert such holder’s Class B ordinary shares into Class A ordinary shares on a one-for-one basis at any time and from time to time prior to the closing of an initial Business Combination at the election of the holder; and (C) if required, an adjournment proposal to adjourn, by way of ordinary resolution, the 2025 Shareholder Meeting to a later date or dates, if necessary, (i) to permit further solicitation and vote of proxies if, based upon the tabulated vote at the time of the 2025 Shareholder Meeting, there are insufficient Class A ordinary shares and Class B ordinary shares in the capital of the Company represented (either in person or by proxy) to approve the 2025 Extension Amendment Proposal and the Founder Share Amendment Proposal, (ii) where the Company would not adhere to the initial or continued trading requirements of OTCQB and the OTCQ Venture or (iii) where the board has determined it is otherwise necessary.
In connection with the vote to approve the 2025 Extension Amendment Proposal and the Founder Share Amendment Proposal held on January 27, 2025, the holders of 2,303,382 Class A ordinary shares properly exercised their right to redeem their shares for cash at a redemption price of approximately $11.91 per share, for an aggregate redemption amount of approximately $27,428,399. After the satisfaction of such redemptions and receipt of the initial deposit of $5,000 to the Trust Account, the balance in the Trust Account was approximately $778,970 and there was 7,664,302 Class A ordinary shares outstanding, of which 64,302 Class A ordinary shares are held by the Company’s public shareholders.
On February 25, 2025, the Company drew the Extension Funds, in the aggregate amount of $5,000, as approved by unanimous director resolution, dated February 25, 2024, pursuant to the 2024 Note (as defined below), which Extension Funds the Company deposited into the Company’s Trust Account for its public shareholders. This deposit enabled the Company to extend the date by which it must complete its initial Business Combination from February 28, 2025 to March 29, 2025). The First 2025 Extension was the first of eleven one-month extensions permitted under the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association and provides the Company with additional time to complete its initial Business Combination.
On March 10, 2025, the Company’s Class A ordinary shares started trading on the OTC Pink and the Company’s Units started trading on the OTCQB. The main difference between OTCQB and OTC Pink from OTCQX is that securities listed on the OTCQB and OTC Pink undergo additional quality review and have different listing standards than those on the OTCQX, although all are tiers of the OTC Markets. The trading symbols for the Class A ordinary shares and Units remained the same.
The transition to OTC Pink and OTCQB from OTCQX of the Company’s Class A ordinary shares and Units is not expected to affect the Company’s business operations, its relationships with partners or employees or its current SEC reporting obligations.

On March 27, 2025, the Company drew additional Extension Funds, as approved by unanimous resolution of the extension committee of the Company’s board of directors, dated March 27, 2025, pursuant to the 2024 Note, which Extension Funds the Company deposited into the Company’s Trust Account for its public shareholders. This deposit enabled the Company to extend the date by which it must complete its initial Business Combination from March 29, 2025 to April 29, 2025. The Second 2025 Extension was the second of eleven one-month extensions permitted under the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association and provides the Company with additional time to complete its initial Business Combination.

The Third 2025 Extension was the third of eleven one-month extensions permitted under the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association and provides the Company with additional time to complete its initial Business Combination.

Liquidity and Going Concern Consideration
As of June 30, 2025, the Company had $4,905 in its operating bank account, and a working capital deficit of $6,141,635, net of the convertible promissory note – related party. Convertible promissory note - related party amounting to $3,181,000 is not expected to be settled out of the current assets.
Our liquidity needs to date have been satisfied through loans from the Sponsor to cover for certain operating expenses. In addition, in order to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor, or certain of our officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, provide the Company working capital loans.
As of June 30, 2025, there was approximately $5,093,208 of borrowings outstanding and $300,000 of related administrative fees owed to the Sponsor under the following promissory notes:
| ● | During the period ended December 31, 2022, the Company issued the 2022 Notes totaling $258,780 to certain executive officers and affiliates of the Company. The proceeds of the 2022 Notes was used for general working capital purposes. The 2022 Notes bear no interest and is payable in full upon the earlier to occur of (i) the Termination Date or (ii) the consummation of the Company’s Business Combination. Failure to pay the principals within five business days of the date specified above or the commencement of a voluntary or involuntary bankruptcy action shall be deemed an event of default, in which case the 2022 Notes may be accelerated. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, $227,208 is outstanding under the 2022 Notes. | |

The 2023 Note bears no interest and is payable in full upon the earlier to occur of (i) the consummation of the Company’s Business Combination or (ii) the date that the winding up of the Company is effective. A failure to pay the principal within five business days of the date specified above or the commencement of a voluntary or involuntary bankruptcy action shall be deemed an event of default, in which case the 2023 Note may be accelerated. At the election of the Sponsor, all or a portion of the unpaid principal amount of the 2023 Note may be converted into warrants of the Company, at a price of $1.50 per warrant, each warrant exercisable for one Class A ordinary share of the Company. The warrants shall be identical to the Private Placement Warrants issued to the Sponsor at the time of the Company’s IPO. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, $230,000 is outstanding under this 2023 Note. | |
| ● | On January 30, 2023, the Company issued the Extension Note to the Sponsor. The Sponsor funded the initial principal amount of $450,000 on January 30, 2023. The Extension Note does not bear interest and matures upon closing of the Company’s Business Combination.

The proceeds of the Extension Note was deposited in the Trust Account. At the election of the payee, $1,270,000 of the total principal amount of the Extension Note may be converted, in whole or in part, at the option of the lender into warrants of the Company at a price of $1.50 per warrant, which warrants will be identical to the Private Placement Warrants issued to the Sponsor at the time of the IPO of the Company. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, $2,951,000 is outstanding under this Extension Note. |
25
| ● | On January 30, 2024, the Company issued the 2024 Note in the amount of $1,660,000, which was amended on June 5, 2025, to increase the principal amount by $590,000 from $1,660,000 to $2,250,000 to the Sponsor. Unless otherwise set forth in the amendment, all other provisions of the 2024 Note remain in full force and effect. The 2024 Note does not bear interest and matures upon closing of the Business Combination. In the event that the Company does not consummate a Business Combination, the 2024 Note will be repaid only from funds held outside of the Trust Account or will be forfeited, eliminated or otherwise forgiven.

We cannot provide any assurance that new financing along the lines detailed above will be available to us on commercially acceptable terms, if at all. Further, we have until the Termination Date to consummate a Business Combination, but we cannot provide assurance that we will be able to consummate a Business Combination by that date. If a Business Combination is not consummated by the required date, there will be a mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution. In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with ASU 2014-15, “Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern,” the liquidity condition and mandatory liquidation raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern until the earlier of the consummation of the Business Combination or January 29, 2026, the date the Company is required to liquidate. These unaudited condensed financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recovery of the recorded assets or the classification of the liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
We intend to complete our Business Combination before the mandatory liquidation date; however, there can be no assurance that we will be able to consummate any Business Combination by the Termination Date. If the Company’s estimates of the costs of identifying a target business, undertaking in-depth due diligence and negotiating a Business Combination are less than the actual amount necessary to do so, the Company may have insufficient funds available to operate its business prior to a Business Combination. Moreover, the Company may need to obtain additional financing either to complete a Business Combination or because it becomes obligated to redeem a significant number of its Public Shares upon completion of a Business Combination, in which case the Company may issue additional securities or incur debt in connection with such Business Combination.
Results of Operations
Our entire activity from inception through June 30, 2025 related to our formation, the preparation for the Initial Public Offering, and since the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the search for a prospective Business Combination. We have neither engaged in any operations nor generated any revenues to date. We will not generate any operating revenues until after completion of our Business Combination. We generate non-operating income in the form of interest income and dividends on cash and investments held in the Trust Account. We expect to incur increased expenses as a result of being a public company (for legal, financial reporting, accounting and auditing compliance), as well as for due diligence expenses.
For the three months ended June 30, 2025, we had a net loss of approximately $221,000, which included a loss from operations of approximately $265,000, partially offset by interest earned on investments held in the Trust Account of approximately $7,000 and a gain from the change in fair value of warrant liabilities of approximately $37,000.
For the six months ended June 30, 2025, we had a net loss of approximately $668,000, which included a loss from operations of approximately $680,000 and a loss from the change in fair value of warrant liabilities of approximately $79,000, partially offset by interest earned on investments held in the Trust Account of approximately $91,000.
For the three months ended June 30, 2024, we had a net income of approximately $205,000, which included interest earned on investments held in the Trust Account of approximately $306,000 and a gain from the change in fair value of warrant liabilities of approximately $125,000, partially offset by a loss from operations of approximately $226,000.
For the six months ended June 30, 2024, we had a net loss of approximately $289,000, which included a loss from operations of approximately $1,000,000 partially offset by interest earned on investments held in the Trust Account of approximately $695,000 and a gain from the change in fair value of warrant liabilities of approximately $30,000.
Contractual Obligations
We do not have any long-term debt obligations, capital lease obligations, operating lease obligations, purchase obligations or long-term liabilities.
Registration Rights
The initial shareholders and holders of the Private Placement Warrants will be entitled to registration rights pursuant to a registration rights agreement. The initial shareholders and holders of the Private Placement Warrants will be entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short form registration demands, that register such securities for sale under the Securities Act. In addition, these holders will have “piggy-back” registration rights to include their securities in other registration statements filed by us. We will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.
Underwriting Agreement
We paid an underwriting discount of 2% of the per Unit offering price, or approximately $6,200,000 in the aggregate at the closing of the Initial Public Offering and agreed to pay Deferred Underwriting Fees of 3.5% of the gross offering proceeds, or approximately $10,850,000 in Deferred Underwriting Fees. The Deferred Underwriting Fees will become payable to the underwriters from the amounts held in the Trust Account solely in the event the Company completes its Business Combination.

Critical Accounting Estimates
This management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our unaudited condensed financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these unaudited condensed financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities in our unaudited condensed financial statements. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and judgments, including those related to fair value of financial instruments and accrued expenses. We base our estimates on historical experience, known trends and events and various other factors that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. One of the more significant accounting estimates included in these unaudited condensed financial statements is the determination of the fair value of the warrant liability. Such estimates may be subject to change as more current information becomes available and, accordingly, actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
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, 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 single reportable segment are required to provide all the disclosures required by the amendments in this ASU and existing segment disclosures in Topic 280. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. ASU 2023-07 became effective as of December 31, 2024 and our management adopted ASU 2023-07 in our financial statements and related disclosures (see Note 9).
The Company’s management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not 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, 2025, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as defined in Item 303(a)(4)(ii) of Regulation S-K.
Inflation
We do not believe that inflation had a material impact on our business, revenues or operating results during the period presented.
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.
27
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 Public Company Accounting Oversight Board 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.
On January 27, 2023, we liquidated the U.S. government treasury obligations or money market funds held in the Trust Account. The funds in the Trust Account will be maintained in cash in an interest-bearing demand deposit account at a bank until the earlier of our initial Business Combination or our liquidation. Interest on such deposit account is currently approximately 2.5% - 3.0% per anum, but such deposit account carries a variable rate, and we cannot assure you that such rate will not decrease or increase significantly.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Disclosure controls are procedures that are designed with the objective of ensuring that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time period specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls are also designed with the objective of ensuring that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the chief executive officer and chief financial officer, 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 and accounting officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2025, 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 and accounting officer have concluded that during the period covered by this Quarterly Report, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective. 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.
We do not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all errors and all instances of fraud. Disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met. Further, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all disclosure controls and procedures, no evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures can provide absolute assurance that we have detected all our control deficiencies and instances of fraud, if any. The design of disclosure controls and procedures also is based partly on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2025 covered by this Quarterly Report that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
