NOTE 1. DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS
Roman DBDR Acquisition Corp. II (the “Company”) is a blank check company incorporated as a Cayman Islands exempted corporation on July 25, 2024. The Company was incorporated for the purpose of effecting a merger, amalgamation, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses (the “Business Combination”), including the transactions contemplated by the ThomasLloyd Business Combination Agreement (as defined below) and the ancillary documents (the “ThomasLloyd Business Combination”).
As of June 30, 2026, the Company has not commenced any operations. All activity for the period from July 25, 2024 (inception) through June 30, 2026 relates to the Company’s formation and the initial public offering (the “Initial Public Offering” or “IPO”), which is described below, and subsequent to the Initial Public Offering, identifying a target company for a Business Combination, including the ThomasLloyd Business Combination. The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of its initial Business Combination, including the ThomasLloyd Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company generates non-operating income in the form of interest income from the proceeds derived from the Initial Public Offering. The Company has selected December 31 as its fiscal year end.
The registration statement for the Initial Public Offering was declared effective on December 12, 2024 (“IPO Registration Statement”). On December 16, 2024, the Company consummated the Initial Public Offering of
Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the sale of an aggregate of
Transaction costs related to the IPO and the full exercise of the over-allotment option amounted to $
On January 23, 2025, the underwriters exercised the over-allotment option in full, and on January 27, 2025, purchased an additional
On January 31, 2025, the Company announced that, commencing on February 3, 2025, the holders of the Units issued in the Initial Public Offering may elect to separate the Public Shares and the Public Warrants included in the Units. No fractional Public Warrants were issued upon separation of the Units and only whole Public Warrants trade. Any Units not separated continue to trade on The Nasdaq Global Market under the symbol “DRDBU.” The Public Shares and the Public Warrants trade on The Nasdaq Global Market under the symbols “DRDB” and “DRDBW,” respectively.
The Company’s 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 generally applied toward consummating a Business Combination, including the ThomasLloyd Business Combination.

The Business Combination must be with one or more target businesses that together have a fair market value equal to at least 80% of the net balance in the Trust Account (excluding taxes payable) at the time of the signing an agreement to enter into a Business Combination. However, the Company will only complete a Business Combination if the post-Business Combination company owns or acquires 50% or more of the outstanding voting securities of the target or otherwise acquires a controlling interest in the target sufficient for it not to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”). There is no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully effect a Business Combination.
Following the closing of the Initial Public Offering on December 16, 2024, and the full exercise of the over-allotment option on January 27, 2025 an amount of $
The Company will provide the Company’s 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 general meeting called to approve the initial Business Combination or (ii) without a shareholder vote 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 Public Shareholders will be entitled to redeem their shares at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account calculated as of two business days prior to the consummation of the initial Business Combination, including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account (net of taxes payable), divided by the number of then outstanding Public Shares, subject to the limitations. The amount in the Trust Account was initially $
The ordinary shares subject to redemption were recorded at a redemption value and classified as temporary equity upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering, in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.”
The Company will have only the duration of the Completion Window to complete the initial Business Combination, including the ThomasLloyd Business Combination. However, if the Company is unable to complete its initial Business Combination within the Completion Window, the Company will as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem the Public Shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account (less taxes payable and up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then outstanding Public Shares, which redemption will constitute full and complete payment for the Public Shares and completely extinguish Public Shareholders’ rights as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidation or other distributions, if any), subject to the Company’s obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and subject to the other requirements of applicable law.

The Sponsor, officers and directors have entered into a letter agreement with the Company, pursuant to which they have agreed to (i) waive their redemption rights with respect to their founder shares (“Founder Shares”) and Public Shares in connection with the completion of the initial Business Combination; (ii) waive their redemption rights with respect to their Founder Shares and Public Shares in connection with a shareholder vote to approve an amendment to the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association; (iii) waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to their Founder Shares if the Company fails to complete the initial Business Combination within the Completion Window, although they will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to any Public Shares they hold if the Company fails to complete the initial Business Combination within the Completion Window and to liquidating distributions from assets outside the Trust Account; and (iv) vote any Founder Shares held by them and any Public Shares purchased during or after the Initial Public Offering (including in open market and privately negotiated transactions, aside from shares they may purchase in compliance with the requirements of Rule 14e-5 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), which would not be voted in favor of approving the Business Combination) in favor of the initial Business Combination.

The Deficiency Notice had no immediate effect on the listing of the Company’s securities on The Nasdaq Global Market. According to the Deficiency Notice, the Company had a period of 60 calendar days, or until October 27, 2025, to submit a plan to Nasdaq to regain compliance. The Company filed such quarterly report on October 23, 2025. On November 5, 2025, the Company received a notice from Nasdaq confirming that it is in compliance with the Rule.

NOTE 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for quarterly financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X of the SEC. Certain information or footnote disclosures normally included in unaudited condensed financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC for quarterly financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of a normal recurring nature, which are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, operating results and cash flows for the periods presented.
The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, as filed with the SEC on March 4, 2026 (the “2025 Annual Report”). The quarterly results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ended December 31, 2026 or for any future periods.
Emerging Growth Company Status
The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”), and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act 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.

ROMAN DBDR ACQUISITION CORP. II
NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 2026
(Unaudited)
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. As a result of this election, the Company’s financial statements may not be comparable to those of public companies that comply with public company effective dates for new or revised accounting standards.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of these 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 these unaudited condensed financial statements. Actual results could differ 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 had $
Investments Held in Trust Account
At June 30, 2026, substantially all of the assets held in the Trust Account were held in money market funds and at December 31, 2025, substantially all of the assets held in the Trust Account were held in U.S. Treasury Bills. The Company accounts for its investments held in the Trust Account as trading securities under ASC 320, “Investments—Debt and Equity Securities,” where securities are presented at fair value in the accompanying condensed balance sheets. Unrealized gains and losses resulting from the change in fair value of investments held in the Trust Account are included in interest earned on investments held in the Trust Account in the Company’s statement of operations.
Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of a cash account in a financial institution, which, at times, may exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation coverage limit of $250,000. Any loss incurred or a lack of access to such funds could have a significant adverse impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.
Offering Costs
The Company complies with the requirements of the ASC 340-10-S99 and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) Topic 5A, “Expenses of Offering.” Deferred offering costs consist principally of professional and registration fees that are related to the Initial Public Offering. FASB ASC 470-20, “Debt with Conversion and Other Options,” addresses the allocation of proceeds from the issuance of convertible debt into its equity and debt components. The Company applies this guidance to allocate Initial Public Offering proceeds from the Units between Class A ordinary shares and Public Warrants, using the residual method by allocating Initial Public Offering proceeds first to assigned value of the Public Warrants and then to the Class A ordinary shares. Offering costs allocated to the Class A ordinary shares were charged to temporary equity and offering costs allocated to the Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants were charged to shareholders’ equity as Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants after management’s evaluation was classified as equity.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under FASB ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the condensed balance sheets, primarily due to their short-term nature.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes,” which requires an asset and liability approach to financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed for differences between the unaudited condensed financial statements and tax bases of assets and liabilities that will result in future taxable or deductible amounts, based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.
ASC Topic 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. The Company’s management determined that the Cayman Islands is the Company’s major tax jurisdiction. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, there were
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
Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company evaluates its financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives in accordance with ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging”. For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value on the grant date and is then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the statement of operations. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is evaluated at the end of each reporting period. Derivative liabilities are classified in the condensed balance sheets as current or non-current based on whether or not net cash settlement or conversion of the instrument could be required within 12 months of the condensed balance sheets dates.
Warrant Instruments
The Company accounted for the

NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Class A Ordinary Shares Subject to Possible Redemption
The Public Shares contain a redemption feature which allows for the redemption of such Public Shares in connection with the Company’s liquidation, or if there is a shareholder vote or tender offer in connection with the Company’s initial Business Combination, including the ThomasLloyd Business Combination. In accordance with ASC 480-10-S99, the Company classifies Public Shares subject to redemption outside of permanent equity as the redemption provisions are not solely within the control of the Company. The Company recognizes changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and will adjust the carrying value of redeemable shares to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Immediately upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company recognized the accretion from initial book value to redemption amount value. The change in the carrying value of redeemable shares will result in charges against additional paid-in capital (to the extent available) and accumulated deficit. Accordingly, as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption were presented at redemption value as temporary equity, outside of the shareholders’ deficit section of the Company’s condensed balance sheets.
As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Class A ordinary shares subject to redemption reflected in the condensed balance sheets were reconciled in the following table:

Net Income Per Ordinary Share
The Company complies with accounting and disclosure requirements of FASB ASC Topic 260, “Earnings Per Share”. Net income per ordinary share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding for the period. Accretion associated with the redeemable Class A ordinary shares is excluded from earnings per share as the redemption value approximates fair value.
The calculation of diluted net income per share does not consider the effect of the Warrants issued in connection with the (i) Initial Public Offering, and (ii) private placement since the exercise of the Warrants is contingent upon the occurrence of future events. The Warrants are exercisable to purchase

The Company will not be obligated to deliver any Class A ordinary shares pursuant to the exercise of a warrant and will have no obligation to settle such warrant exercise unless a registration statement under the Securities Act with respect to the Class A ordinary shares underlying the warrants is then effective and a prospectus relating thereto is current. No warrant will be exercisable and the Company will not be obligated to issue a Class A ordinary share upon exercise of a warrant unless the Class A ordinary share issuable upon such warrant exercise has been registered, qualified or deemed to be exempt under the securities laws of the state of residence of the registered holder of the warrants. In the event that the conditions in the two immediately preceding sentences are not satisfied with respect to a warrant, the holder of such warrant will not be entitled to exercise such warrant and such warrant may have no value and expire worthless. In no event will the Company be required to net cash settle any warrant. In the event that a registration statement is not effective for the exercised warrants, the purchaser of a Unit containing such warrant will have paid the full purchase price for the Unit solely for the Class A ordinary share underlying such Unit.
Under the terms of the warrant agreement (“Warrant Agreement”), the Company has agreed that, as soon as practicable, but in no event later than
Notwithstanding the above, if the Class A ordinary shares are at the time of any exercise of a warrant not listed on a national securities exchange such that they satisfy the definition of a “covered security” under Section 18(b)(1) of the Securities Act, the Company may, at its option, require holders of Public Warrants who exercise their warrants to do so on a “cashless basis” in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act and, in the event the Company so elects, the Company will not be required to file or maintain in effect a registration statement.

Additionally, if the number of outstanding Class A ordinary shares is increased by a share capitalization payable in Class A ordinary shares, or by a subdivision of ordinary shares or other similar event, then, on the effective date of such share capitalization, subdivision or similar event, the number of Class A ordinary shares issuable on exercise of each warrant will be increased in proportion to such increase in the outstanding ordinary shares. A rights offering made to all or substantially all holders of ordinary shares entitling holders to purchase Class A ordinary shares at a price less than the fair market value will be deemed a share capitalization of a number of Class A ordinary shares equal to the product of (i) the number of Class A ordinary shares actually sold in such rights offering (or issuable under any other equity securities sold in such rights offering that are convertible into or exercisable for Class A ordinary shares) and (ii) the quotient of (x) the price per Class A ordinary share paid in such rights offering and (y) the fair market value. For these purposes (i) if the rights offering is for securities convertible into or exercisable for Class A ordinary shares, in determining the price payable for Class A ordinary shares, there will be taken into account any consideration received for such rights, as well as any additional amount payable upon exercise or conversion and (ii) fair market value means the volume weighted average price of Class A ordinary shares as reported during the

Risks and Uncertainties
The Company’s ability to complete an initial Business Combination, including the ThomasLloyd Business Combination, may be adversely affected by various factors, many of which are beyond the Company’s control. The Company’s ability to consummate an initial Business Combination, including the ThomasLloyd Business Combination, could be impacted by, among other things, changes in laws or regulations in multiple jurisdictions as applicable, downturns in the financial markets or in economic conditions, inflation, fluctuations in interest rates, increases in tariffs, supply chain disruptions, declines in consumer confidence and spending, public health considerations, and geopolitical instability, such as the military conflicts in Ukraine, between the United States, Israel and Iran and others in the Middle East, and Southwest Asia or other armed hostilities. The Company cannot at this time predict the likelihood of one or more of the above events, their duration or magnitude or the extent to which they may negatively impact the Company’s ability to complete an initial Business Combination, including the ThomasLloyd Business Combination.

Business Combination Agreement
On February 27, 2026, the Company entered into a Business Combination Agreement (as it may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “ThomasLloyd Business Combination Agreement”) with (i) ThomasLloyd Climate Solutions B.V., a private company with limited liability (besloten vennootschap met beperkte aansprakelijkheid), with its corporate seat in Amsterdam, the Netherlands (“ThomasLloyd”), and (ii) each of the holders of ThomasLloyd’s outstanding ordinary shares as named in the Business Combination Agreement (the “Sellers” or “ThomasLloyd Shareholders”).

NOTE 8. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
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: | Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. An active market for an asset or liability is a market in which transactions for the asset or liability occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis. |
Level 2: | Observable inputs other than Level 1 inputs. Examples of Level 2 inputs include quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities and quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active. |
Level 3: | Unobservable inputs based on assessment of the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. |
The following table presents information about the Company’s assets that are measured at fair value as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation inputs the Company utilized to determine such fair value:

NOTE 9. SEGMENT INFORMATION
FASB ASC Topic 280, “Segment Reporting,” establishes standards for companies to report in their unaudited condensed financial statements 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 (“CODM”), or group, in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance.
The Company’s CODM has been identified as the Chief Financial Officer, who reviews the operating results for the Company as a whole to make decisions about allocating resources and assessing financial performance. Accordingly, management has determined that the Company only has
The Company is a blank check company formed for the purpose of effecting a Business Combination. As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company had not commenced any operations. The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of its initial Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company generates non-operating income in the form of interest income on cash and cash equivalents from the proceeds derived from the Initial Public Offering, which are held in the Trust Account.
When evaluating the Company’s performance and making key decisions regarding resource allocation the CODM reviews several key metrics, which include the following:
For the Three | For the Six | |||||||||||
Months Ended | Months Ended | |||||||||||
June 30, | June 30, | |||||||||||

Interest earned on the Trust Account | $ | | $ | | $ | | $ | | ||||
Net income | $ | | $ | | $ | | $ | | ||||
Total assets | $ | | $ | | $ | | $ | | ||||
The key measures of segment profit or loss reviewed by our CODM are interest earned on investment in the Trust Account and general and operating expenses. The CODM reviews interest earned on investments held in 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. Within the operating expenses, the CODM specifically reviews professional service fees, which are a significant segment expense, and include legal fees and advisory fees. These expenses are monitored to manage and forecast cash available to complete a Business Combination within the required period. Other general and administrative expenses, including accounting expenses, printing expenses, and regulatory filing fees, are reviewed in the aggregate to ensure alignment with budget and contractual obligations. Funds invested in the Trust Account represent the predominant portion of the Company’s total assets and are monitored by the CODM to determine the most effective strategy of investment with the Trust Account funds, while maintaining compliance with the trust agreement.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
All statements other than statements of historical fact included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2026 (the “Report”) including, without limitation, statements under this Item regarding our financial position, possible Business Combinations and the financing thereof, and related matters, and the plans and objectives of Management for future operations, are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. When used in this Report, words such as “may,” “should,” “could,” “would,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend” and similar expressions, as they relate to us or our Management, identify forward-looking statements. We have based these forward-looking statements on our management’s current expectations and projections about future events, as well as assumptions made by, and information currently available to our Management. Actual results could differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors detailed in our filings with the SEC. All subsequent written or oral forward-looking statements attributable to us or persons acting on our behalf are qualified in their entirety by this paragraph.
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed financial statements and the notes thereto included in this Report under Item 1. “Financial Statements”.
Overview
We are a blank check company incorporated on July 25, 2024 as a Cayman Islands exempted company and formed for the purpose of effecting a Business Combination, including the ThomasLloyd Business Combination. We intend to effectuate our Business Combination using cash derived from the proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and the Private Placement, the proceeds of the sale of our Ordinary Shares in connection with our initial Business Combination, including the ThomasLloyd Business Combination (pursuant to any forward purchase agreements or backstop agreements into which we may enter), Ordinary Shares issued to the owners of the target, debt issued to bank or other lenders or the owners of the target, other securities issuances, or a combination of the foregoing.
We expect to continue to incur significant costs in the pursuit of our acquisition plans. We cannot assure our shareholders that our plans to complete a Business Combination will be successful.
We may seek to extend the Completion Window consistent with applicable laws, regulations and stock exchange rules by amending our Amended and Restated Charter. Such an amendment would require the approval of our shareholders, and our Public Shareholders will be provided the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares in connection with the vote on such approval. Such redemptions will decrease the amount held in our Trust Account and our capitalization, and may affect our ability to maintain our listing on Nasdaq. In addition, the continued listing rules of Nasdaq, as they exist as of the date of the Report (the “Nasdaq Rules”), currently require special purpose acquisition companies (“SPACs”), such as us, to complete their initial Business Combination in accordance with the requirement pursuant to the Nasdaq Rules that a SPAC must complete one or more Business Combinations within 36 months following the effectiveness of its IPO registration statement (the “Nasdaq 36-Month Requirement”). If we do not meet the Nasdaq 36-Month Requirement, our securities will likely be subject to a suspension of trading and delisting from Nasdaq.
ThomasLloyd Business Combination
On February 27, 2026, we, ThomasLloyd, and each of the ThomasLloyd Shareholders, entered into the ThomasLloyd Business Combination Agreement. PubCo and Merger Sub will become parties to the ThomasLloyd Business Combination Agreement following the formation of PubCo. The ThomasLloyd Business Combination Agreement and the transactions contemplated under the ThomasLloyd Business Combination were unanimously approved by the boards of directors of each of our Company and ThomasLloyd. The ThomasLloyd Business Combination is expected to close in the third quarter of 2026, following the receipt of the requisite approvals of our shareholders and the ThomasLloyd Shareholders and the fulfillment of other customary closing conditions.
The ThomasLloyd Business Combination Agreement provides, among other things, that at least one day prior to the share exchange described below, the Company will merge with and into Merger Sub, with Merger Sub continuing as the Surviving Company after the Merger and a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of PubCo. As a result of the Merger, each issued and outstanding share of our Class A Ordinary Shares and Class B Ordinary Shares, other than the Roman Dissenting Shares will no longer be outstanding and will be automatically cancelled and converted into and exchanged for the right to receive one PubCo Class A Ordinary Share, and each issued and outstanding Roman Warrant will become one PubCo Warrant to purchase one PubCo Class A Ordinary Share, with PubCo issuing a number of PubCo Class A Ordinary Shares and PubCo Warrants in accordance with the terms of the ThomasLloyd Business Combination Agreement.
24
At least one day following the Merger Effective Time, PubCo will acquire all of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares of ThomasLloyd from the Sellers in exchange for the issuance by PubCo of new ordinary shares, par value $0.01 per share, consisting of PubCo Class A Ordinary Shares and PubCo Class B Ordinary Shares.
Subject to the terms and conditions of the ThomasLloyd Business Combination Agreement, PubCo will issue to the Sellers in the aggregate, a number of PubCo Class A Ordinary Shares or PubCo Class B Ordinary Shares, as applicable, with an aggregate value up to an amount equal to the relevant portion of the Share Exchange Aggregate Consideration (as defined in the ThomasLloyd Business Combination Agreement, based on an equity value of $850,000,000), with PubCo allotting and issuing to each Seller, for each ThomasLloyd ordinary share held, a number of PubCo Class A Ordinary Shares and/or PubCo Class B Ordinary Shares, as applicable, equal to the Per Share Exchange Ratio in accordance with the Allocation Schedule (each as defined in the ThomasLloyd Business Combination Agreement).
For a full description of the ThomasLloyd Business Combination Agreement and the proposed ThomasLloyd Business Combination, please refer to “Item 1. Business” in the 2025 Annual Report.

Pursuant to the Addendum, Mr. Birmingham will receive a one-time cash payment in the amount of $25,000 relating to the remaining Securities and Exchange Commission reporting work of the Company.
On May 6, 2026, we entered into an agreement with Lucid in connection with the proposed private placement, backstop financing, or other financing of the Company’s equity, equity-linked, convertible debt, or straight debt securities relating to the ThomasLloyd Business Combination Agreement. In consideration for the services described above, Lucid shall be entitled to receive, and the Company agrees to pay Lucid, the following compensation, including (i) an offering fee equal to 6% of gross proceeds raised in such financing, and (ii) an advisory fee equal to 3% of the aggregate consideration or equity value of any strategic transaction entered into with any party introduced to the Company by Lucid during the agreement period.
On May 13, 2026, the Company engaged Berenberg and Lucid to act as co-placement agents in connection with a proposed private placement, whether in one or a series of offerings, of equity or equity-related securities of a newly formed entity that will be the ultimate parent of the Company, the proceeds of which ultimately will be used to fund the ThomasLloyd Business Combination.
The fees payable to Berenberg and Lucid for acting as co-placement agents in connection with such offering shall be a total of 6.00% of the Aggregate Sales Price, which fee shall be divided as follows: (i) for gross proceeds received from investors domiciled in the United States, 70% to Lucid and 30% to Berenberg, (ii) for gross proceeds received from investors domiciled in Europe (including but not limited to the United Kingdom and the European Economic Area), 30% to Lucid and 70% to Berenberg, and (iii) for gross proceeds received from all other investors, 50% to Lucid and 50% to Berenberg.

Results of Operations
We have neither engaged in any operations nor generated any revenues to date. Our only activities from July 25, 2024 (inception) through June 30, 2026 were organizational activities and those necessary to prepare for and consummate the Initial Public Offering, and following the closing of the Initial Public Offering, searching for a target with which to consummate a Business Combination, including the ThomasLloyd Business Combination. We do not expect to generate any operating revenues until after the completion of our Business Combination. We generate non-operating income in the form of interest income on investments held in the Trust Account. We incur 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, 2026, we had net income of $2,203,834, which consisted of interest earned on investments held in the Trust Account of $2,641,365, offset by general and administrative expenses of $437,531.
For the six months ended June 30, 2026, we had net income of $1,968,767, which consisted of interest earned on investments held in the Trust Account of $4,291,697, offset by general and administrative expenses of $2,322,930.
For the three months ended June 30, 2025, we had net income of $2,027,870, which consisted of interest earned on investments held in the Trust Account of $2,422,595, offset by general and administrative expenses of $394,725.
For the six months ended June 30, 2025, we had net income of $4,241,875, which consisted of interest earned on investments held in the Trust Account of $4,709,197, as well as change in fair value of over-allotment liability of $268,783, offset by general and administrative expenses of $736,105.
Liquidity, Capital Resources and Going Concern
Until the consummation of the Initial Public Offering, our only source of liquidity was an initial purchase of Class B Ordinary Shares by the Sponsor and loans from the Sponsor.
On July 25, 2024, the Sponsor agreed to loan us up to $300,000 to cover expenses related to the Initial Public Offering pursuant to the IPO Promissory Note. This loan was non-interest bearing and payable on the earlier of March 31, 2025 or the completion of the Initial Public Offering. On December 16, 2024, upon the consummation of the Initial Public Offering, the IPO Promissory Note was repaid in full at the closing of the Initial Public Offering and the IPO Promissory Note is no longer outstanding.
On December 16, 2024, we consummated the Initial Public Offering of 20,000,000 Units at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $200,000,000. Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, we consummated the sale of an aggregate of 7,385,000 Private Placement Warrants at a price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant, in the Private Placement to the Sponsor and B. Riley, generating gross proceeds of $7,385,000.
On January 23, 2025, the underwriters exercised the over-allotment option in full, and on January 27, 2025, purchased an additional 3,000,000 Units pursuant to the full exercise of the over-allotment option. The over-allotment Units were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $30,000,000. In connection with the full exercise of the over-allotment option, the Sponsor and B. Riley purchased an additional 750,000 Private Placement Warrants in the aggregate at a price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant, generating total gross proceeds of $750,000.
Following the closing of our Initial Public Offering, the Private Placement and the full exercise of the over-allotment option, a total of $231,150,000 was placed in the Trust Account. We incurred $5,328,515 of offering expenses, consisting of $4,600,000 of cash underwriting fees and $728,515 of other offering costs. The proceeds held in the Trust Account are currently invested only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations. The holding of these assets in this form is intended to be temporary and for the sole purpose of facilitating the intended Business Combination.
To mitigate the risk that we might be deemed to be an investment company for purposes of the Investment Company Act, which risk increases the longer that we hold investments in the Trust Account, we may, at any time (based on our management team’s ongoing assessment of all factors related to our potential status under the Investment Company Act), instruct the trustee to liquidate the investments held in the Trust Account and instead to hold the funds in the Trust Account in cash or in an interest-bearing demand deposit account at a bank.

For the six months ended June 30, 2026, cash used in operating activities was $496,784. Net income of $1,968,767 consisted of interest earned on investments held in the Trust Account of $4,291,697. Changes in operating assets and liabilities provided $1,826,146 of cash from operating activities.
For the six months ended June 30, 2025, cash used in operating activities was $653,106. Net income of $4,241,875 was affected by the interest earned on investments held in the Trust Account of $4,709,197 and a change in the fair value of over-allotment option of $268,783. Changes in operating assets and liabilities provided $82,999 of cash from operating activities.
As of June 30, 2026, we had investments held in the Trust Account of $245,480,252. We intend to use substantially all of the funds held in the Trust Account, including any amounts representing interest earned on the Trust Account, which interest shall be net of taxes payable, to complete our Business Combination. To the extent that our equity or debt is used, in whole or in part, as consideration to complete our Business Combination, the remaining proceeds held in the Trust Account will be used as working capital to finance the operations of the target business or businesses, make other acquisitions and pursue our growth strategies.
As of June 30, 2026, we had cash of $66,238. We use the funds held outside the Trust Account primarily to identify and evaluate target businesses, perform business due diligence on prospective target businesses, travel to and from the offices, plants or similar locations of prospective target businesses or their representatives or owners, review corporate documents and material agreements of prospective target businesses, and structure, negotiate and complete a Business Combination.
To mitigate the risk that we might be deemed to be an investment company for purposes of the Investment Company Act, which risk increases the longer that we hold investments in the Trust Account, we may, at any time (based on our management team’s ongoing assessment of all factors related to our potential status under the Investment Company Act), instruct the trustee to liquidate the investments held in the Trust Account and instead to hold the funds in the Trust Account in cash or in an interest-bearing demand deposit account at a bank.
In order to fund working capital deficiencies or finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor, or certain of our officers and directors or their affiliates may, but are not obligated to, loan us Working Capital Loans as may be required. If we complete a Business Combination, we would repay such Working Capital Loans. In the event that a Business Combination does not close, we may use a portion of the working capital held outside the Trust Account to repay any Working Capital Loans, but no proceeds from our Trust Account would be used for such repayment. Up to $1,500,000 of such Working Capital Loans may be convertible into warrants of the post-Business Combination entity at a price of $1.00 per warrant at the option of the lender. These warrants would be identical to the Private Placement Warrants. The terms of such Working Capital Loans, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such Working Capital Loans.
In connection with our assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Update Topic 2014-15, “Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern,” Management has determined that we currently lack the liquidity needed to sustain operations for a reasonable period of time, which is considered to be at least one year from the date that the unaudited condensed financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Report under Item 1. “Financial Statements” are issued, as we expect to continue to incur significant costs in pursuit of our acquisition plans. In addition, Management has determined that if we are unable to complete an initial Business Combination within the Completion Window, then we will cease all operations except for the purpose of liquidating. These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Management plans to consummate an initial Business Combination prior to the end of the Completion Window. No adjustments have been made to the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities should we be required to liquidate after the Completion Window. There can be no assurance that our plans to raise capital or to consummate an initial Business Combination will be successful.
Contractual Obligations
We do not have any long-term debt, capital lease obligations, operating lease obligations or long-term liabilities, other than as set forth below.

Administrative Services Agreement
Commencing on December 13, 2024, and until completion of our initial Business Combination or liquidation, we pay our Sponsor $10,000 per month for certain office space, utilities and secretarial and administrative support pursuant to the Administrative Services Agreement.
The Company incurred $30,000 and $60,000 for administrative services for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, respectively. $30,000 of such incurred fees remained unpaid and included in the accounts payable and accrued liabilities line item in the Company’s balance sheet as of June 30, 2026.
The Company incurred and paid $30,000 and $60,000 for administrative services for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively.
Underwriting Agreement
The underwriters of the Initial Public Offering had a 45-day option from the date of the Initial Public Offering to purchase up to an additional 3,000,000 Option Units to cover over-allotments, if any. On January 23, 2025, the underwriters of the Initial Public Offering fully exercised the over-allotment option, and on January 27, 2025, purchased an additional 3,000,000 Option Units pursuant to such exercise. The Option Units were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per Option Unit, generating gross proceeds of $30,000,000.
Amended and Restated Business Combination Marketing Agreement
We have engaged B. Riley as an advisor in connection with the Business Combination to assist us in arranging meetings with shareholders to discuss the potential Business Combination and the target business’ attributes, introduce us to potential investors that may be interested in purchasing securities, assist in obtaining shareholder approval for the Business Combination and assist us with the preparation of press releases and public filings in connection with the Business Combination. We will pay B. Riley for such services upon the consummation of the initial Business Combination a cash fee in an amount equal to 4.5% of the gross proceeds of the Initial Public Offering (exclusive of any applicable finders’ fees which might become payable). Pursuant to the terms of the Business Combination Marketing Agreement, no fee will be due if we do not complete an initial Business Combination.
In connection with the signing of the ThomasLloyd Business Combination Agreement, the Company, ThomasLloyd and B. Riley entered into an Amended and Restated Business Combination Marketing Agreement, which amended and restated the Business Combination Marketing Agreement, dated December 12, 2024, by and between the Company and B. Riley. Pursuant to the Amended and Restated Business Combination Marketing Agreement, B. Riley will provide certain advisory, marketing and capital markets services to the Company in connection with certain business combinations, including the ThomasLloyd Business Combination. As consideration for such services, the Company has agreed to pay B. Riley a fee equal to 4.5% of the gross proceeds received by the Company from the sale of its equity securities in the Initial Public Offering, including any proceeds from the full exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option (the “Fee”). In connection with the ThomasLloyd Business Combination, the Fee will be structured and calculated based on the gross proceeds available to PubCo at the Closing, including proceeds retained from the Trust Account following the redemption deadline, proceeds from any PIPE Financing and proceeds from any other sources as follows: 30% of the Gross Proceeds on the first $10.0 million of Gross Proceeds; 10% of the incremental Gross Proceeds exceeding $10.0 million, up to the total amount of the Fee.
If all or any portion of the Fee is not paid in full at Closing, PubCo is obligated to enter into a committed equity facility (the “CEF”) with B. Riley or its affiliate immediately upon the Closing, as described below. If the Fee has not been paid in its entirety at Closing or subsequent to the Closing, subject to certain conditions, the Company has agreed to maximize its use of the CEF, subject to customary ownership and volume limitations, and to pay B. Riley 30% of the net proceeds raised under the CEF until the Fee is paid in full. If the Fee has not been paid in full by the twelve-month anniversary of the Closing, PubCo will be required to pay the remaining unpaid balance in cash.
In addition, PubCo has granted B. Riley the right to serve in the following capacities in certain capital markets transactions: (1) as lead distribution agent for any at-the-market offering (with a commission of 2.0% of gross proceeds) for 24 months following the Closing, and (2) until the Fee is paid in full, as joint lead underwriter and joint lead bookrunner for any public offerings (with equal economics to other joint lead underwriters) and placement agent for any private offerings.
28
Committed Equity Facility Term Sheet
In connection with the consummation of the Transactions, our Company, ThomasLloyd and B. Riley entered into a binding term sheet (the “CEF Term Sheet”) relating to the CEF. Pursuant to the CEF Term Sheet, subject to the consummation of the ThomasLloyd Business Combination and the execution of definitive documentation, B. Riley will agree to purchase, from time to time during the 36-month commitment period following closing, up to an aggregate of $200.0 million (the “Aggregate Commitment Amount”) of PubCo’s common stock, at a purchase price equal to 97.0% of the volume-weighted average price of PubCo’s common stock during a defined pricing period, subject to customary ownership, exchange cap and volume limitations. In consideration for the investor’s commitment, PubCo will agree to pay the investor a commitment fee of 1.0% of the Aggregate Commitment Amount and to reimburse certain expenses, up to $75,000, not including quarterly legal fees of up to $7,500 in quarters where the CEF is used. If the engagement of a qualified independent underwriter is required, PubCo will reimburse B. Riley up to an additional $55,000 for such engagement. The CEF Term Sheet is subject to customary conditions, including the negotiation of a definitive purchase agreement.
Service Provider Agreement
On February 16, 2026, we entered in a consulting agreement with the ICR LLC (“ICR”) to provide certain services related to the initial Business Combination. ICR’s compensation consists of the following:
| ● | $25,000 per month continuing until the completion of the initial Business Combination; |
| ● | a transaction fee tied to redemption outcomes at the completion of the initial Business Combination, ranging from $150,000 to $300,000 payable in the case of successful completion of initial Business Combination; and |
| ● | a fully discretionary bonus of $100,000, payable in full or in part at the sole discretion of the Company based on performance. |
Critical Accounting Estimates
The preparation of unaudited condensed financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited condensed financial statements, and income and expenses during the periods reported. Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgement. 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. Accordingly, the actual results could materially differ from those estimates.
Current and anticipated future events might affect the determination of whether certain estimates are considered critical by management.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and are not required to provide the information otherwise required under this Item.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Disclosure controls and procedures are designed with the objective of ensuring that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act, such as the Report, is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures are also designed with the objective of ensuring that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer (together, the “Certifying Officers”), as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Certifying Officers, we carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Based on the foregoing, our Certifying Officers concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of June 30, 2026 due to the material weakness related to the insufficient segregation of duties to safeguard company assets.
In light of this material weakness, we have enhanced our processes to identify and appropriately apply applicable accounting requirements to better evaluate and understand the nuances of the complex accounting standards that apply to our financial statements including making greater use of third-party professionals with whom we consult regarding complex accounting applications. The elements of our remediation plan can only be accomplished over time, and we can offer no assurance that these initiatives will ultimately have the intended effects. We believe our efforts will enhance our controls relating to accounting for complex financial transactions, but we can offer no assurance that our controls will not require additional review and modification in the future as industry accounting practice may evolve over time.
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 have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarterly period ended June 30, 2026, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
To the knowledge of our management team, there is no material litigation currently pending or contemplated against us, any of our officers or directors in their capacity as such or against any of our property.
Item 1A. Risk Factors.
As a smaller reporting company under Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act, we are not required to include risk factors in the Report. However, for detailed descriptions of the risks relating to our Company, see the section titled “Risk Factors” contained in our (i) IPO Registration Statement, (ii) Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, as filed with the SEC on March 31, 2025, (iii) 2025 Annual Report and (iv) Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarterly periods ended March 31, 2025, June 30, 2025 and September 30, 2025 and March 31, 2026, as filed with the SEC on May 21, 2025, October 23, 2025, November 13, 2025, and May 20, 2026, respectively. Any of these previously disclosed risk factors could result in a significant or material adverse effect on our results of operations or financial condition. Additional risks not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also affect our ability to consummate an initial Business Combination. We may disclose changes to such risk factors or disclose additional risk factors from time to time in our future filings with the SEC.
For risks related to ThomasLloyd and the ThomasLloyd Business Combination, please see the Registration Statement on Form F-4 to be filed by the parties to the ThomasLloyd Business Combination Agreement, once filed.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.
There were no sales of unregistered securities during the quarterly period covered by the Report. However, on January 23, 2025, the underwriters exercised the over-allotment option in full, and on January 27, 2025, purchased an additional 3,000,000 Option Units pursuant to the full exercise of the over-allotment option. The Option Units were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per share, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $30,000,000. In connection with the closing of the over-allotment option, the Sponsor and B. Riley, purchased an additional 750,000 Private Placement Warrants in the aggregate at a price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant, generating total gross proceeds of $750,000. Following the closing of the over-allotment option and the sale of additional Private Placement Warrants, an aggregate amount of $30,150,000 was deposited into the Trust Account.
Use of Proceeds
There were no offerings of registered securities and therefore no planned use of proceeds from such offerings during the quarterly period covered by the Report. For a description of the use of proceeds generated in our Initial Public Offering and Private Placement, see Part II, Item 2 of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2024, as filed with the SEC on January 16, 2025.
