PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

Introduction

Lakeshore Acquisition III Corp. (“we”, “us”, “our” and the “Company”) is a blank check company incorporated in the Cayman Islands as an exempted company on October 21, 2024, incorporated for the purpose of entering into a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities, which we refer to throughout this Annual Report as our initial business combination.” Our efforts to identify a prospective target business will not be limited to a particular industry, while we intend to focus on identifying a prospective target business in North America, South America, Europe, or Asia.

Initial Public Offering and Private Placement

On May 1, 2025, the Company consummated the initial public offering (“IPO”) of 6,900,000 units (the “Units”), which includes full exercise of the underwriter’s over-allotment option. Each Unit consists of one ordinary share of the Company, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Ordinary Shares”) and one right that entitles the holder thereof to receive one-sixth (1/6) of one Ordinary Share upon consummation of the Company’s initial business combination (“Right”). The Units were sold at a price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $69,000,000.

Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, the Company consummated a private placement (the “Private Placement”) in which RedOne Investment Limited (the “Sponsor”) purchased 280,000 private units (the “Private Placement Units”) at a price of $10.00 per Private Unit, generating total gross proceeds of $2,800,000. The Private Placement Units are identical to the Units sold in the IPO except that the Private Placement Units are subject to certain transfer restrictions. The Private Placement Units may not, subject to certain limited exceptions, be transferred, assigned or sold by the holders until the completion of the Company’s initial business combination. The holders of the Private Placement Units were granted certain demand and piggyback registration rights in connection with the Private Placement.

On May 1, 2025, a total of $69,000,000 of the net proceeds from the IPO and the Private Placement were deposited in a trust account established for the benefit of the Company’s public shareholders (the “Trust Account”).

As of December 31, 2025, the Company had not commenced any operations. All activities for the period from October 21, 2024 (inception) through December 31, 2025 were organizational activities and those necessary to prepare for the Initial Public Offering (the “IPO”), and, following our IPO, searching for a Business Combination target and the negotiation with potential targets for an initial Business Combination. The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of its initial Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company will generate non-operating income in the form of interest income on cash and cash equivalents from the proceeds derived from the IPO.

On June 18, 2025, the Company announced that holders of the Company’s units may elect to separately trade the Ordinary Shares and Rights included in its Units commencing on or about June 23, 2025. The Ordinary Shares and Rights are currently trading on the Nasdaq Global Market (“Nasdaq”) under the symbols “LCCC” and “LCCCR,” respectively. Units not separated will continue to trade on Nasdaq under the symbol “LCCCU”.

Business Strategy

Our efforts to identify a prospective target business will not be limited to a particular industry, while we intend to focus on identifying a prospective target business in North America, South America, Europe, or Asia. We do not have any specific business combination under consideration and we have not (nor has anyone on our behalf), directly or indirectly, contacted any prospective target business or had any substantive discussions, formal or otherwise, with respect to such a transaction with our company.

Table of Contents

We will seek to capitalize on the significant contacts and experience of our management team, including Bill Chen, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, and H. David Sherman, Jon M. Montgomery and Brian Ferrier, each a director.

Our management team plans to identify and contact potential target businesses and start to evaluate and pursue a possible business combination. In addition, we will communicate the parameters of our search to our network of relationships and transaction sources to help us identify potential target businesses. We intend to leverage our team’s collective experience to successfully complete a business combination, and then continue to support our target business with our industry relationships, insights and regulatory knowledge, financial expertise and capital resources.

Competitive Strengths

We believe we are well positioned to find and attract an exciting business, and to help them as a newly public company grow and thrive, offering a partnership that extends far beyond our capital. Our management team’s deep operational experience, product experience, extensive networks, and track records as investors, advisors, and board members make us an attractive partner.

We are dedicated to finding bold founders, operators, and inventors who are committed to building a leading business and would benefit from access to the public markets as well as working with our team. We have a proven track record of success in several industries as senior executives, investors and board members and are confident that we can partner with other founders, shareholder and management to help support building a category-defining business. We believe we possess the following tools to drive value creation at a company:

·	Experience recognizing key trends: Our team has demonstrated a long history of managing and growing businesses at the epicenter of major trends.
·	Experience identifying strong management teams: With key members of our team having had significant senior executive roles, we believe we have an ability to identify the characteristics of successful business leaders, and effective in engaging with these management teams.
·	History of operating experience: The members of our team are seasoned operators having held executive level roles in various companies. We have experience in developing and executing strategy, building and retaining teams, and executing business combinations among other activities.
·	Deep network and connections to company founders: Our team has many connections to company founders and business leaders across various industry. We have invested in many companies, served on many boards and have worked with many influential founders and senior management teams. We believe our network and our connections will assist in the successful selection of our initial business combination and subsequent guidance of the company.
---	---
·	Prior SPAC Experience: Our management team possesses a strong understanding of the SPAC structure and market. Members of our management team have served as members of the board and management of an aggregate of four SPACs that have consummated a business combination.

Investment Criteria

We intend to leverage the extensive network and experience of our management team in identifying a suitable target and structuring a business combination that is attractive to both the target and our public shareholders. We have identified the following general criteria and guidelines that we believe are important in evaluating prospective target businesses. While we intend to use these criteria and guidelines in evaluating prospective businesses, we may deviate from these criteria and guidelines should we see fit to do so:

·	Clear and Sustainable Competitive Advantages: We intend to target businesses that differentiate themselves from their peers in ways that are difficult to replicate and have clear competitive advantages. Members of our team have accomplished track records of founding, operating, and investing in various industries and intend to focus on prospective businesses that engage to serve customers in novel and transformational manner. We believe our team’s expertise and understanding of innovative businesses will be paramount in identifying and assessing initial business combination candidates.
·	High Growth Potential and Cash Flow: We intend to seek businesses that are well positioned to grow in their respective markets and which have clear plans on how to leverage additional capital to accelerate growth. We expect to target businesses that have had, or expect to have, strong cash flow generation. We believe that our team’s collective experiences engaging with innovative businesses positions us well to identify, nurture, and expand high potential businesses.
·	Experienced Management Teams: We intend to seek to target businesses that have strong, experienced and dynamic management teams who we believe may benefit from our financial, managerial and investment expertise as well as our extensive industry networks and insights. We believe that identifying such management teams is particularly important given our target industry.
·	Attractive Valuations: We intend to only evaluate a business that, based on our due diligence and industry experience, represents an attractive valuation relative to publicly listed companies with similar characteristics or in similar industry segments. We intend to seek businesses in which we believe we can add operational value through mentorship of management, knowledge of operating challenges, experience with industry dynamics, expertise in navigating public markets, and strategic relationships with investors, among others.
·	Will Benefit from Being a Public Company: We intend to pursue a business that will benefit from being a public company, including potentially having broader access to capital and a public currency for acquisitions.

These criteria are not intended to be exhaustive. Any evaluation relating to the merits of a particular initial business combination may be based, to the extent relevant, on these general guidelines as well as other considerations, factors and criteria that our management may deem relevant. We may decide to enter into our initial business combination with a target business that does not meet the above criteria and guidelines, and in the event we do so, we will disclose that the target business does not meet the above criteria in our shareholder communications related to our initial business combination, which, would be in the form of proxy solicitation materials or tender offer documents that we would file with the SEC.

Initial Business Combination

We will have up to 15 months from the closing of the IPO (August 1, 2026), or until such earlier liquidation date as our board of directors may approve, to consummate an initial business combination. If we anticipate that we may be unable to consummate our initial business combination within such 15-month period, we may seek shareholder approval to amend our memorandum and articles of association to extend the date by which we must consummate our initial business combination (as well as to modify the substance or timing of our obligation to redeem 100% of our public shares if we have not consummated an initial business combination within the time periods described herein or with respect to any other material provisions relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-initial business combination activity). If we seek shareholder approval for an extension, holders of public shares will be offered an opportunity to redeem their shares at a per share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the trust account, including interest (net of funds withdrawn to pay our taxes), divided by the number of then issued and outstanding public shares, subject to applicable law.

3
Table of Contents

If we are unable to consummate an initial business combination within the completion window, we will redeem 100% of the issued and outstanding public shares for a pro rata portion of the funds held in the trust account, 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 us (net of funds withdrawn to pay our taxes and up to $50,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then issued and outstanding public shares, subject to applicable law and as further described herein, and then seek to liquidate and subsequently dissolve. We expect that the pro rata redemption price to be approximately $10.00 per share (regardless of whether or not the underwriters exercise their over-allotment option), without taking into account any interest earned on such funds. However, we cannot assure you that we will in fact be able to distribute such amounts as a result of claims of creditors which may take priority over the claims of our public shareholders.

Nasdaq listing rules require that we must complete one or more business combinations having an aggregate fair market value of at least 80% of the value of the assets held in the trust account (excluding any taxes payable on the income earned on the trust account) at the time of the agreement to enter into the initial business combination. We refer to this as the 80% of net assets test. If our board of directors is not able to independently determine the fair market value of the target business or businesses, we will obtain an opinion from an independent investment banking firm or another independent entity that commonly renders valuation opinions with respect to the satisfaction of such criteria. We do not currently intend to purchase multiple businesses in unrelated industries in conjunction with our initial business combination, although there is no assurance that will be the case.

We anticipate structuring our initial business combination so that the post-transaction company in which our public shareholders own shares will own or acquire 100% of the issued and outstanding equity interests or assets of the target business or businesses. We may, however, structure our initial business combination such that the post-transaction company owns or acquires less than 100% of such interests or assets of the target business in order to meet certain objectives of the target management team or shareholders or for other reasons, but we will only complete such business combination if the post-transaction company owns or acquires 50% or more of the issued and outstanding voting securities of the target or otherwise acquires a controlling interest in the target business sufficient for it not to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, or the Investment Company Act. Even if the post-transaction company owns or acquires 50% or more of the voting securities of the target, our shareholders prior to our initial business combination may collectively own a minority interest in the post-transaction company, depending on valuations ascribed to the target and us in our initial business combination transaction. For example, we could pursue a transaction in which we issue a substantial number of new shares in exchange for all of the issued and outstanding capital stock, shares or other equity securities of a target business or issue a substantial number of new shares to third parties in connection with financing our initial business combination. In this case, we would acquire a 100% controlling interest in the target. However, as a result of the issuance of a substantial number of new shares, our shareholders immediately prior to our initial business combination could own less than a majority of our issued and outstanding shares subsequent to our initial business combination. If less than 100% of the equity interests or assets of a target business or businesses are owned or acquired by the post-transaction company, the portion of such business or businesses that is owned or acquired is what will be valued for purposes of the 80% of net assets test. If our initial business combination involves more than one target business, the 80% of net assets test will be based on the aggregate value of all of the target businesses. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if we are not then listed on Nasdaq for whatever reason, we would no longer be required to meet the foregoing 80% of net assets test.

Enforceability of Civil Liability

We are an exempted company incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands and administered from outside the United States, and a majority of our assets will be located within the United States. Our corporate affairs will be governed by our memorandum and articles of association, the Companies Act, and the common law of the Cayman Islands. The rights of shareholders to take action against the directors, actions by minority shareholders and the fiduciary responsibilities of our directors to us under Cayman Islands law are to a large extent governed by the common law of the Cayman Islands. The common law of the Cayman Islands is derived in part from comparatively limited judicial precedent in the Cayman Islands, as well as from English common law, the decisions of whose courts are considered persuasive authority but are not binding on a court in the Cayman Islands. The rights of our shareholders and the fiduciary responsibilities of our directors under Cayman Islands law are not as clearly established as they would be under statutes or judicial precedent in some jurisdictions in the United States. In particular, the Cayman Islands has a different body of securities laws as compared to the United States, and some states, such as Delaware, have more fully developed and judicially interpreted bodies of corporate law. In addition, Cayman Islands companies may not have standing to initiate a shareholder derivative action in a federal court of the United States.

Table of Contents

There is uncertainty as to whether the Cayman Islands courts would:

·	recognize or enforce against us judgments of U.S. courts based on certain civil liability provisions of U.S. securities laws; and
·	entertain original actions brought in the Cayman Islands against us or our directors or officers predicated upon the securities laws of the U.S. or any state in the U.S.
---	---

There is uncertainty with regard to Cayman Islands law related to whether a judgment obtained from the U.S. courts under civil liability provisions of U.S. securities laws will be determined by the courts of the Cayman Islands as penal or punitive in nature. If such determination is made, the courts of the Cayman Islands may not recognize or enforce the judgment against a Cayman Islands company, such as our company. As the courts of the Cayman Islands have yet to rule on making a determination in relation to judgments obtained from U.S. courts under civil liability provisions of U.S. securities laws, it is uncertain whether such judgments would be enforceable in the Cayman Islands. We have been further advised that although there is no statutory enforcement in the Cayman Islands of judgments obtained in the United States, a judgment obtained in such jurisdiction will be recognized and enforced in the courts of the Cayman Islands at common law, without any re-examination of the merits of the underlying dispute, by an action commenced on the foreign judgment debt in the Grand Court of the Cayman Islands, provided such judgment:

(a)	is given by a foreign court of competent jurisdiction;
(b)	imposes on the judgment debtor a liability to pay a liquidated sum for which the judgment has been given;
---	---
(c)	is final;
---	---
(d)	is not in respect of taxes, a fine or a penalty;
---	---
(e)	was not obtained by fraud; and
---	---
(f)	is not of a kind the enforcement of which is contrary to natural justice or the public policy of the Cayman Islands (awards of punitive or multiple damages may well be held to be contrary to public policy).
---	---

Subject to the above limitations, in appropriate circumstances, a Cayman Islands court may give effect in the Cayman Islands to other kinds of final foreign judgments such as declaratory orders, orders for performance of contracts and injunctions.

Emerging Growth Company Status and Other Information

We are an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the JOBS Act. As such, we are eligible to 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 our periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a non-binding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. If some investors find our securities less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for our securities and the prices of our securities may be more volatile.

5
Table of Contents

In addition, Section 107 of the JOBS Act also provides that an “emerging growth company” can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards. In other words, an “emerging growth company” can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We intend to take advantage of the benefits of this extended transition period.

We will remain an emerging growth company until the earlier of (1) the last day of the fiscal year (a) following the fifth anniversary of the completion of the IPO, (b) in which we have total annual gross revenue of at least $1.235 billion, or (c) in which we are deemed to be a large accelerated filer, which means the market value of our ordinary shares that are held by non-affiliates equals or exceeds $700 million as of the end of that year’s second fiscal quarter, and (2) the date on which we have issued more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt securities during the prior three-year period. References herein to “emerging growth company” will have the meaning associated with it in the JOBS Act.

Additionally, we are a “smaller reporting company” as defined in Item 10(f)(1) of Regulation S-K. Smaller reporting companies may take advantage of certain reduced disclosure obligations, including, among other things, providing only two years of audited financial statements. We will remain a smaller reporting company for each fiscal year in which (1) the market value of our ordinary shares held by non-affiliates is less than $250 million as of the end of the previous year’s second fiscal quarter, or (2) our annual revenues are less than $100 million during the previous completed fiscal year and the market value of our ordinary shares held by non-affiliates is less than $700 million as of the end of the previous year’s second fiscal quarter.

Competition

We expect to encounter intense competition from other entities having a business objective similar to ours, including private investors (which may be individuals or investment partnerships), other blank check companies and other entities, domestic and international, competing for the types of businesses we intend to acquire. Many of these individuals and entities are well established and have extensive experience in identifying and effecting, directly or indirectly, acquisitions of companies operating in or providing services to various industries. Many of these competitors possess greater technical, human and other resources or more local industry knowledge than we do, and our financial resources will be relatively limited when contrasted with those of many of these competitors. While we believe there are numerous target businesses we could potentially acquire with the net proceeds of the IPO and the sale of the private units, our ability to compete with respect to the acquisition of certain target businesses that are sizable will be limited by our available financial resources. This inherent competitive limitation gives others an advantage in pursuing the acquisition of certain target businesses. Furthermore, in the event we seek shareholder approval of our initial business combination and we are obligated to pay cash for our ordinary shares, these payments will reduce the resources available to us for our initial business combination. Any of these obligations may place us at a competitive disadvantage in successfully negotiating a business combination.

Because there are numerous special purpose acquisition companies seeking to enter into an initial business combination with available targets, the competition for attractive targets may increase, which could cause target companies to demand improved financial terms. Thus, our ability to identify and evaluate a target company may be impacted by significant competition among other special purpose acquisition companies in pursuing business combination transaction candidates and significant competition may impact the attractiveness of the acquisition terms that we will be able to negotiate.

Facilities

We maintain our executive offices at 667 Madison Avenue, New York, NY 10065. The cost for this space is included in the $10,000 per month fee that we will pay to our sponsor or an affiliate thereof for office space, administrative and support services. We consider our current office space adequate for our current operations.

Table of Contents

Employees

We currently have one officer serving as both our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, and do not intend to have any full-time employees prior to the completion of our initial business combination. Members of our management team are not obligated to devote any specific number of hours to our matters, but they intend to devote as much of their time as they deem necessary to our affairs until we have completed our initial business combination. The amount of time that any such person will devote in any time period will vary based on whether a target business has been selected for our initial business combination and the current stage of the business combination process.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

As a smaller reporting company, we are not required to include risk factors in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those in this Annual Report on Form 10-K are any of the risks described in the final prospectus of the Company filed with the SEC on April 30, 2025 (File No. 333-286395) (the “Prospectus”). Any of these factors could result in a significant or material adverse effect on our results of operations or financial condition. Additional risk factors not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also impair our business or results of operations. As of the date of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, there have been no material changes to the risk factors disclosed in the Prospectus, except we may disclose changes to such factors or disclose additional factors from time to time in our future filings with the SEC.

ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS

None.

ITEM 1C. CYBERSECURITY

As a blank check company, we have no operations and therefore do not have any operations of our own that face material cybersecurity threats. However, we do depend on the digital technologies of third parties, including information systems, infrastructure and cloud applications and services, any sophisticated and deliberate attacks on, or security breaches in, systems or infrastructure or the cloud that we utilize, including those of third parties, could lead to corruption or misappropriation of our assets, proprietary information and sensitive or confidential data. Because of our reliance on the technologies of third parties, we also depend upon the personnel and the processes of third parties to protect against cybersecurity threats, and we have no personnel or processes of our own for this purpose. We have not adopted any cybersecurity risk management program or formal processes for assessing cybersecurity risk. In the event of a cybersecurity incident impacting us, the management team will report to the board of directors and provide updates on the management team’s incident response plan for addressing and mitigating any risks associated with such an incident. As an early-stage company without significant investments in data security protection, we may not be sufficiently protected against such occurrences. We also lack sufficient resources to adequately protect against, or to investigate and remediate any vulnerability to, cyber incidents. It is possible that any of these occurrences, or a combination of them, could have material adverse consequences on our business and lead to financial loss.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We may be subject to legal proceedings, investigations and claims incidental to the conduct of our business from time to time. We are not currently a party to any material litigation or other legal proceedings brought against us. We are also not aware of any legal proceeding, investigation or claim, or other legal exposure that has a more than remote possibility of having a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.

Our Units began to trade on the Nasdaq Global Market, or Nasdaq, under the symbol “LCCCU” on April 30, 2025. The Ordinary Shares and Rights comprising the units began separate trading on Nasdaq on June 23, 2025, under the symbols “LCCC” and “LCCCR,” respectively.

Holders of Record

At December 31, 2025, 7,722,866 of our Ordinary Shares held by five shareholders of record and 1,182,134 Units held by two holders of record. The number of record holders was determined from the records of our transfer agent and does not include beneficial owners of ordinary shares whose shares are held in the names of various security brokers, dealers, and registered clearing agencies.

Dividends

We have not paid any cash dividends on our ordinary shares to date and do not intend to pay cash dividends prior to the completion of an initial business combination. The payment of cash dividends in the future will be dependent upon our revenues and earnings, if any, capital requirements and general financial condition subsequent to completion of a business combination. The payment of any dividends subsequent to a business combination will be within the discretion of our board of directors at such time. It is the present intention of our board of directors to retain all earnings, if any, for use in our business operations and, accordingly, our board of directors does not anticipate declaring any dividends in the foreseeable future. In addition, our board of directors is not currently contemplating and does not anticipate declaring any share dividends in the foreseeable future. Further, if we incur any indebtedness, our ability to declare dividends may be limited by restrictive covenants we may agree to in connection therewith.

Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities

On November 6, 2024, we issued 1,725,000 ordinary shares of a par value of $0.0001 each to our Sponsor for a purchase price of $25,000, or approximately $0.014 per share. On April 29, 2025, our Sponsor transferred to each independent director, Jon M. Montgomery, Dr. H. David Sherman, and Brian Ferrier 10,000 founder shares, all at the original purchase price when the sponsor acquired such shares from us. As of date of this report, an aggregate of 1,725,000 shares had been sold to certain of our founders, which we refer to throughout this report as the “Founder Shares,” for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000, or approximately $0.014 per share, in connection with the Company’s organization pursuant to the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.

On May 1, 2025, the Company consummated the IPO of 6,900,000 Units, which includes full exercise of the underwriter’s over-allotment option. Each Unit consists of one Ordinary Shares and one Right. The Units were sold at a price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $69,000,000. Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, the Company consummated Private Placement in which the Sponsor purchased 280,000 Private Placement Units at a price of $10.00 per Private Placement Unit, generating total gross proceeds of $2,800,000. The Private Placement Units are identical to the Units sold in the IPO except that the Private Placement Units are subject to certain transfer restrictions. The issuances were made pursuant to the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.

A total of $69,000,000 of the net proceeds from the IPO and the Private Placement were deposited in a trust account established for the benefit of the Company’s public shareholders. We paid a total of $1,035,000 underwriting discounts and commissions and $484,900 for other offering costs and expenses related to the IPO. In addition, the underwriters agreed to defer $2,415,000 in underwriting discounts and commissions, which will be in the form of ordinary shares at $10.00 per share upon the consummation of the Company’s initial business combination.

At December 31, 2025, the Company had $70,858,017 held in the Trust Account, which primarily consists of investments in mutual funds that invest in U.S. government securities, cash, or a combination thereof.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion And Analysis Of Financial Condition And Results Of Operations

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and related notes thereto included elsewhere in this report. Certain information contained in the discussion and analysis set forth below includes forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties.

Overview

We are a blank check company incorporated as a Cayman Islands exempted company on October 21, 2024, for the purpose of entering into a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or other similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities. Our efforts to identify a prospective target business will not be limited to a particular industry or geographic region. We intend to utilize cash derived from the proceeds of our initial public offering (the “IPO”) in effecting our initial business combination.

We are an emerging growth company and, as such, we are subject to all of the risks associated with emerging growth companies.

We presently have no revenue. All activities for the period from October 21, 2024 (inception) through December 31, 2025 relate to the formation and the IPO and the efforts for the initial business combination. We will have no operations other than the active solicitation of one or more target businesses with which to complete a business combination, and we will not generate any operating revenue until after our initial business combination, at the earliest. We will have non-operating income in the form of interest income on cash and cash equivalents from the proceeds derived from the IPO.

On May 1, 2025, we consummated an IPO of 6,900,000 Public Units, which includes the underwriters’ full exercise of the over-allotment option, at a price of $10.00 per Public Unit, generating gross proceeds of $69,000,000.

Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, we consummated the sale of 280,000 Private Units, at a price of $10.00 per Private Unit, in a private placement to our sponsor, RedOne Investment Limited, generating gross proceeds of $2,800,000.

Offering costs amounted to $3,934,900, consisting of $1,035,000 of underwriting commissions, $2,415,000 of deferred underwriting commissions which will be in the form of ordinary shares at $10.00 per share upon the consummation of the Company’s initial business combination, and $484,900 of other offering costs.

Upon the closing of the IPO and the private placement, $69,000,000 was placed in a trust account (the “Trust Account”) with Wilmington Trust, National Association acting as trustee. This amount equals 6,900,000 ordinary shares subject to possible redemption multiplied by redemption value of $10.00 per share.

As indicated in the accompanying financial statements, as of December 31, 2025, we had $756,592 in cash held outside the Trust Account available for working capital purposes.

We cannot assure you that our plans to complete our initial business combination will be successful. If we are unable to complete our initial business combination within 15 months from the date of the IPO, we will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than five business days thereafter, redeem 100% of the outstanding public shares at a price pro rata to the amount held in the Trust Account (less taxes payable and up to US$50,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses) and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the remaining holders of ordinary shares and our board of directors, liquidate and dissolve. In the event of liquidation, the holders of the founder shares and Private Units will not participate in any redemption distribution with respect to their founder shares or Private Units, until all of the claims of any redeeming shareholders and creditors are fully satisfied (and then only from funds held outside the Trust Account).

Results of Operations

Our all activities from October 21, 2024 (inception) up to the consummation of the IPO was in preparation for the IPO.

Since the consummation of the IPO, our activities have been primarily focused on evaluating potential business combination candidates. We do not anticipate generating any operating revenues until the consummation of our initial business combination. We expect to generate non-operating income in the form of interest income from the proceeds derived from the IPO. We will incur expenses associated with being a public company, as well as costs related to the search for suitable business combination targets.

For the year ended December 31, 2025, we had a net income of $1,257,633. We incurred $600,384 of general and administrative expenses and earned $1,858,017 of interest income from investments in our Trust Account.

For the period from October 21, 2024 to December 31, 2024, we had a net loss of $14,124, which consisted of $14,124 in formation, general and administrative expenses.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of December 31, 2025, we had $756,592 in cash held outside the Trust Account available for our working capital purposes.

Prior to the consummation of the IPO, our liquidity needs had been satisfied through a payment from the sponsor of $25,000 for the founder shares, and the loan under an unsecured promissory note from the sponsor of $300,000. On May 1, 2025, the $300,000 loan was repaid fully to the sponsor and no amounts were owed under the promissory note.

We consummated the IPO and private placement on May 1, 2025. Upon the consummation of the IPO and the private placement, $69,000,000 of cash was placed in the Trust Account with Wilmington Trust, National Association acting as trustee. As of December 31, 2025, an aggregate of $70,858,017 was held in the Trust Account invested in U.S. treasury bills, notes or bonds having a maturity of 180 days or less or in money market funds meeting the applicable conditions under Rule 2a-7 promulgated under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amend.

In order to meet our working capital needs following the consummation of the IPO, our initial shareholders, officers and directors or their affiliates may, but are not obligated to, loan us funds, from time to time or at any time, in amount they deem reasonable in their sole discretion. Each working capital loan would be evidenced by a promissory note and would either be paid upon consummation of our initial business combination, without interest, or, at the lender’s discretion, up to $1,000,000 of the working capital loan may be converted upon consummation of our business combination into additional Private Units at a price of $10.00 per unit. If we do not complete a business combination, the working capital loan will only be repaid with funds not held in the Trust Account and only to the extent available. To date, there were no amounts outstanding under any working capital loans.

Based on the foregoing, management believes that we will have sufficient working capital and borrowing capacity to meet our needs through the earlier of the consummation of a business combination or one year from this filing. Over this time period, we will be using these funds for paying existing accounts payable, identifying and evaluating prospective initial business combination candidates, performing due diligence on prospective target businesses, paying for travel expenditures, selecting the target business to merge with or acquire, and structuring, negotiating and consummating the business combination.

If our estimates of the costs of undertaking due diligence and negotiating our initial business combination are less than the actual amount necessary to do so, we may have insufficient funds available to operate our business prior to our initial business combination. Moreover, we may need to obtain additional financing either to consummate our initial business combination or because we become obligated to convert a significant number of our public shares upon consummation of our initial business combination, in which case we may issue additional securities or incur debt in connection with such business combination. Subject to compliance with applicable securities laws, we would only consummate such financing simultaneously with the consummation of our initial business combination. Following our initial business combination, if cash on hand is insufficient, we may need to obtain additional financing in order to meet our obligations.

We performed an assessment on our ability to continue as a going concern in accordance with Financial Accounting Standard Board’s Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-15, “Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern”. We have $756,592 cash, working capital of $690,592, and will continue to incur significant costs in pursuit of an acquisition. That raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. In addition, there is no assurance that we will be able to consummate the initial business combination within 15 months from the date of the IPO. In the event that we fail to consummate a business combination within the required period, we will face mandatory liquidation and dissolution subject to certain obligations under applicable laws or regulations. No adjustments have been made to the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities regarding the possibility of us not continuing as a going concern, as a result of cash shortage or failing to consummate a business combination within 15 months from the date of the IPO. Management plans to continue its efforts to consummate a business combination within 15 months from the date of the IPO.

Critical Accounting Policies

Management’s discussion and analysis of our results of operations and liquidity and capital resources are based on our audited financial information. We describe our significant accounting policies in Note 2 - Significant Accounting Policies, of the Notes to Financial Statements included in this report. The preparation of our 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 financial statements. Judgments are based on historical experience, terms of existing contracts, industry trends and information available from outside sources, as appropriate. However, by their nature, judgments are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty, and, therefore, actual results could differ from our estimates.

Offering Costs Associated with the IPO

Offering costs consist of underwriting, legal, accounting, registration and other expenses incurred through the date of the closing of the IPO that are directly related to the IPO. As of May 1, 2025, offering costs totaled $3,934,900. The amount was consisted of $1,035,000 of underwriting commissions, $2,415,000 of deferred underwriting commissions (payment shall be in the form of ordinary shares at $10.00 per share deferred until consummation of the Company’s initial business combination), and $484,900 of other offering costs. We comply with the requirements of the ASC 340-10-S99-1 and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) Topic 5A – “Expenses of Offering”. Offering costs were charged to shareholders’ equity upon the completion of the IPO. We allocated offering costs between public shares and public rights based on the estimated fair values of them at the date of issuance. Accordingly, $3,820,394 was allocated to public shares and was charged to temporary equity; $114,506 was allocated to public rights and was charged to shareholders’ equity.

Ordinary Shares Subject to Possible Redemption

We account for ordinary shares subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in ASC Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” Ordinary shares subject to mandatory redemption (if any) are classified as a liability instrument and are measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable ordinary shares (including ordinary shares that feature redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the Company’s control) are classified as temporary equity. At all other times, ordinary shares are classified as shareholders’ equity. Our public shares feature certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of our control and subject to occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, ordinary shares subject to possible redemption are presented at redemption value per share as temporary equity, outside of the shareholders’ equity section of our balance sheets. We recognize changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and adjusts the carrying value of redeemable ordinary shares to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Increases or decreases in the carrying amount of redeemable ordinary shares are affected by charges against additional paid-in capital or accumulated deficit if additional paid-in capital equals to zero.

Table of Contents

Net Income (Loss) per Share

We comply with accounting and disclosure requirements of FASB ASC 260, “Earnings Per Share”. In order to determine the net income (loss) attributable to both the redeemable shares and non-redeemable shares, we first consider the undistributed income (loss) allocable to both the redeemable shares and non-redeemable shares and the undistributed income (loss) is calculated using the total net income (loss) less interest income in trust account less any dividends paid. We then allocate the undistributed income (loss) ratably based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding between the redeemable and non-redeemable shares. Any remeasurement of the accretion to redemption value of the ordinary shares subject to possible redemption is considered to be dividends paid to the public shareholders.

For the year ended December 31, 2025 and for the period from October 21, 2024 to December 31, 2024, we did not have any dilutive securities and other contracts that could, potentially, be exercised or converted into ordinary shares and then share in the earnings of us. As a result, diluted income (loss) per share is the same as basic loss per share for the period presented. The calculation of diluted income (loss) per share does not consider the effect of the rights issued in connection with the IPO and the private placement since the conversion of rights to ordinary shares will be contingent on the occurrence of future events.

Recent Accounting Standards

In November 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“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 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. We adopted ASU 2023-07 on January 1, 2025.

Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards if currently adopted would have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no obligations, assets or liabilities, which would be considered off-balance sheet arrangements as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024. We do not participate in transactions that create relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, often referred to as variable interest entities, which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements. We have not entered into any off-balance sheet financing arrangements, established any special purpose entities, guaranteed any debt or commitments of other entities, or purchased any non-financial assets.

Contractual Obligations

Underwriting Agreement

A deferred underwriting commission of $0.35 per Public Unit sold, totaling $2,415,000 will be in the form of representative shares at $10.00 per share deferred until consummation of the initial business combination.

Registration Rights

The initial shareholders will be entitled to registration rights with respect to their initial shares, as well as the holders of the private units and holders of any securities issued to our initial shareholders, officers, directors or their affiliates in payment of working capital loans or extension loans made to us, will be entitled to registration rights with respect to the private units (and underlying securities), pursuant to an agreement signed on the effective date of the IPO. The holders of such securities are entitled to demand that we register these securities at any time after we consummate a business combination. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights on registration statements filed after the consummation of a business combination.

Table of Contents

Engagement agreement with Legal Counsel

We have entered into an engagement agreement with its legal counsel with respect to the initial business combination. The fee will be based on the number of hours spent. An aggregate of $150,000 will be paid prior to the closing of the business combination, and the balance will be due upon the closing of the business combination.

Engagement Agreement – Fairness Opinion

An aggregate of $30,000 will be paid prior to and upon the effectiveness of the registration statement of the initial business combination, based on an engagement agreement entered into by us with the provider of fairness opinion for the initial business combination.

Engagement Agreement – Financial Advisory

We have retained a financial advisor with respect to the initial business combination. An initial retainer of $150,000 was paid during the year ended December 31, 2025. And we agree to pay 500,000 newly issued shares of common stock at $10.00 per share at the closing of the business combination if we complete the initial business combination within 30 months from the engagement date.

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

As of December 31, 2025, we were not subject to any market or interest rate risk. The net proceeds of our IPO, including amounts in the Trust Account, have been invested in U.S. government treasury obligations with a maturity of 180 days or less or in certain money market funds that invest solely in U.S. treasuries. Due to the short-term nature of these investments, we believe there will be no associated material exposure to interest rate risk.

Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data

This information appears following Item 15 of this Report and is included herein by reference.

Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure

None.

Item 9A. 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, such as this Report, 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. Our management evaluated, with the participation of our current chief executive officer and chief financial officer (our “Certifying Officers”), the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2025, pursuant to Rule 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Based upon that evaluation, our Certifying Officers concluded that, as of December 31, 2025, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

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.

Management’s Report on Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting

As required by SEC rules and regulations implementing Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Our internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of our financial statements for external reporting purposes in accordance with GAAP. Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:

(1)	pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of our company,
(2)	provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors, and
---	---
(3)	provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
---	---

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect errors or misstatements in our financial statements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree or compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting at December 31, 2025. In making these assessments, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013). Based on our assessments and those criteria, management determined that our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025 was effective.

This Annual Report on Form 10-K does not include an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm due to our status as an emerging growth company under the JOBS Act.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Number, Terms of Office and Election of Officers and Directors

Our board of directors consists of four members.

17
Table of Contents

Approval of our initial business combination will require the affirmative vote of a majority of our board directors, which must include a majority of our independent directors. Subject to any other special rights applicable to the shareholders, prior to our initial business combination, any vacancies on our board of directors may be filled by the affirmative vote of a majority of the directors present and voting at the meeting of our board of directors.

Our officers are appointed by the board of directors and serve at the discretion of the board of directors, rather than for specific terms of office. Our board of directors is authorized to appoint persons to the offices set forth in our memorandum and articles of association as it deems appropriate. Our memorandum and articles of association provide that our officers may consist of a Chairman of the Board, a Chief Executive Officer, a President, a Chief Operating Officer, a Chief Financial Officer, Vice Presidents, a Secretary, Assistant Secretaries, a Treasurer and such other offices as may be determined by the board of directors.

Board Committees

Our board of directors has three standing committees: an audit committee, a compensation committee, and a nominating and corporate governance committee. Subject to phase-in rules, the Nasdaq listing rules and Rule 10A-3 of the Exchange Act require that the audit committee of a listed company be comprised solely of independent directors, and Nasdaq listing rules require that the compensation committee and the nominating and corporate governance committee of a listed company be comprised solely of independent directors. Each committee operates under a charter that was approved by our board of directors and have the composition and responsibilities described below.

Audit Committee

The Audit Committee, which is established in accordance with Section 3(a)(58)(A) of the Exchange Act, engages Company’s independent accountants, reviewing their independence and performance; reviews the Company’s accounting and financial reporting processes and the integrity of its financial statements; the audits of the Company’s financial statements and the appointment, compensation, qualifications, independence and performance of the Company’s independent auditors; the Company’s compliance with legal and regulatory requirements; and the performance of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. The Audit Committee held no formal meetings during 2025 as the Company does not have any underlying business or employees, relying on quarterly reports and written approvals as required.

The members of the Audit Committee are H. David Sherman, Brian Ferrier and Jon Montgomery, each of whom is an independent director under Nasdaq’s listing standards. H. David Sherman is the Chairperson of the audit committee. The Board has determined that H. David Sherman qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert,” as defined under the rules and regulations of the SEC.

Table of Contents

Nominating Committee

We have established a nominating committee of the Board of Directors consisting of H. David Sherman, Jon M. Montgomery and Brian Ferrier, each of whom is an independent director under the Nasdaq listing standards. Mr. Montgomery serves as chairman of the nominating committee. The nominating committee is responsible for overseeing the selection of persons to be nominated to serve on our Board of Directors. The nominating committee considers persons identified by its members, management, shareholders, investment bankers and others. The Nominating Committee did not meet during 2025.

Compensation Committee

The Compensation Committee reviews annually the Company’s corporate goals and objectives relevant to the officers’ compensation, evaluates the officers’ performance in light of such goals and objectives, determines and approves the officers’ compensation level based on this evaluation; makes recommendations to the Board regarding approval, disapproval, modification, or termination of existing or proposed employee benefit plans, makes recommendations to the Board with respect to non-CEO and non-CFO compensation and administers the Company’s incentive-compensation plans and equity-based plans. The Compensation Committee has the authority to delegate any of its responsibilities to subcommittees as it may deem appropriate in its sole discretion. The chief executive officer of the Company may not be present during voting or deliberations of the Compensation Committee with respect to his compensation. The Company’s executive officers do not play a role in suggesting their own salaries. Neither the Company nor the Compensation Committee has engaged any compensation consultant who has a role in determining or recommending the amount or form of executive or director compensation. The Compensation Committee did not meet during 2025.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, as indicated above, no compensation of any kind, including finders, consulting or other similar fees, will be paid to any of our existing shareholders, including our directors, or any of their respective affiliates, prior to, or for any services they render in order to effectuate, the consummation of a business combination. Accordingly, it is likely that prior to the consummation of an initial business combination, the compensation committee will only be responsible for the review and recommendation of any compensation arrangements to be entered into in connection with such initial business combination.

The members of the Compensation Committee are Jon M. Montgomery, H. David Sherman and Brian Ferrier, each of whom is an independent director under Nasdaq’s listing standards. Brian Ferrier is the Chairperson of the Compensation Committee.

Clawback Policy

We have adopted a compensation recovery policy that is compliant with Nasdaq listing rules as required by the Dodd-Frank Act.

Code Of Conduct

We have adopted a code of conduct, or our Code of Conduct, applicable to our directors, officers and employees. You can review this document by accessing our public filings at the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov and on our website*.* In addition, a copy of our Code of Conduct will be provided without charge upon request from us. We intend to disclose any amendments to or waivers of certain provisions of our Code of Conduct in a Current Report on Form 8-K. See “Where You Can Find Additional Information.”

Conflicts Of Interest

Our officers and directors presently have and may in the future have additional competing fiduciary and other duties to other enterprises, and opportunities presented to them may not be presented to us as a result of such conflicts. Additionally, our officers and directors may in the future become affiliated with entities that are engaged in a similar business, including other blank check companies that may have acquisition objectives that are similar to our company. Also, each of our officers and directors may have a conflict of interest with respect to evaluating a particular business combination if the retention or resignation of any such officers and directors was included by a target business as a condition to any agreement with respect to our initial business combination.

19
Table of Contents

Our initial shareholders, directors and officers are not prohibited from sponsoring, investing in or otherwise becoming involved with, any other blank check companies (including special purpose acquisition companies similar to our company), including in connection with their initial business combinations, prior to us completing our initial business combination. Potential investors should also be aware of the following potential conflicts of interest:

·	Our directors and officers are not required to, and will not, commit their full time to our affairs, which may result in a conflict of interest in allocating their time between our operations and our search for a business combination and their other responsibilities.
·	Our initial shareholders, directors and officers have agreed to waive their redemption rights with respect to any shares held by them in connection with the consummation of our initial business combination. Additionally, our initial shareholders have agreed to waive their redemption rights with respect to its founder shares and private shares if we fail to consummate our initial business combination within the completion window. However, if our initial shareholders, or any of our directors, officers or affiliates acquire public shares, they will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the trust account with respect to such public shares if we fail to consummate our initial business combination within the completion window. If we do not complete our initial business combination within such applicable time period, the proceeds of the sale of the private units held in the trust account will be used to fund the redemption of our public shares, and the private units will be worthless. Pursuant to a letter agreement that our initial shareholders, directors and officers have entered into with us, with certain limited exceptions, the founder shares will not be transferable, assignable or salable by our initial shareholders until the earlier of: (i) 180 days after the completion of our initial business combination; and (ii) subsequent to our initial business combination, the date on which we complete a liquidation, merger, share exchange, reorganization or other similar transaction that results in all of our public shareholders having the right to exchange their ordinary shares for cash, securities or other property. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the founder shares will be released from the lock-up if (1) the last reported sale price of our ordinary shares equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for share splits, share capitalizations, reorganizations, recapitalizations and other similar transactions) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 90 days after our initial business combination or (2) if we complete a transaction after our initial business combination which results in all of our shareholders having the right to exchange their shares for cash, securities or other property. Since our initial shareholders, directors and officers may directly or indirectly own our securities, they may have a conflict of interest in determining whether a particular target business is an appropriate business with which to effectuate our initial business combination.
---	---
·	In the event that we submit our initial business combination to our public shareholders for a vote, our initial shareholders, directors and officers have agreed (and their permitted transferees will agree), pursuant to the terms written agreements entered into with us, to vote any founder shares and public shares held by them in favor of our initial business combination.
---	---
·	Our directors and officers may negotiate employment or consulting agreements with a target business in connection with a particular business combination. These agreements may provide for them to receive compensation following our initial business combination and as a result, may cause them to have conflicts of interest in determining whether to proceed with a particular business combination.
---	---

The conflicts described above may not be resolved in our favor.

Table of Contents

As a result of multiple business affiliations, our directors and officers have now and may have in the future similar legal obligations to other companies that may require them to present business opportunities to those companies. Below is a table summarizing the entities to which our directors and officers currently have such duties:

I ndividual	Entity	Entity’s Business	Affiliation/Title
Bill Chen	Shanghai Renaissance Investment Management Co. Ltd.	private equity firm	Chief Executive Officer
	RedOne Investment Limited	venture capital firm	Founder
H. David Sherman	Nuvve Holding Corp.	renewable energy	Director
	Nature’s Miracle Holding Inc.	controlled environment agriculture technology provider	Director
Jon M. Montgomery	Meredith Financial Group, Inc.	financial management and advisory firm	Managing Director
	Nuvve Holding Corp.	renewable energy	Director
	Nature’s Miracle Holding Inc.	controlled environment agriculture technology provider	Director
Brian Ferrier	Howell<br><br>BioPharma	biopharma	President and Chief Executive Officer

If any of our directors or officers become aware of a business combination opportunity which is suitable for another entity to whom they owe fiduciary or contractual duties, he or she may need to honor his or her fiduciary or contractual obligations to present such business combination opportunity to such entity, and only present it to us if such entity rejects the opportunity. Our memorandum and articles of association provide that, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law: (i) no individual serving as a director or an officer shall have any duty, except and to the extent expressly assumed by contract, to refrain from engaging directly or indirectly in the same or similar business activities or lines of business as us; and (ii) we renounce any interest or expectancy in, or in being offered an opportunity to participate in, any potential transaction or matter which may be a corporate opportunity for any director or officer, on the one hand, and us, on the other. However, because the other entities to which our officers and directors currently owe fiduciary duties or contractual obligations are not themselves in the business of engaging in business combinations, and because we expect that our company will generally have priority over any other special purpose acquisition companies subsequently formed by our sponsor, officers or directors with respect to acquisition opportunities until we complete our initial business combination or enter into a contractual agreement that would restrict our ability to engage in material discussions regarding a potential initial business combination, we do not believe that any such potential conflicts would materially affect our ability to complete our initial business combination.

We are not prohibited from pursuing an initial business combination with a company that is affiliated with our initial shareholders, directors or officers; accordingly, such affiliated person(s) may have a conflict of interest in determining whether a particular target business is an appropriate business with which to effectuate our initial business combination and in negotiating or accepting the terms of the transaction as such affiliated person(s) would have interests different from our public shareholders and would likely not receive any financial benefit unless we consummated such business combination. In the event we seek to complete an initial business combination with a target that is affiliated with our initial shareholders, directors or officers, we, or a committee of independent and disinterested directors, may engage independent advisors to assist with the evaluation and would obtain an opinion from an independent investment banking firm or from an independent accounting firm that such an initial business combination is fair to our company from a financial point of view.

In addition, our initial shareholders or any of their affiliates may make additional investments in the company in connection with the initial business combination, although our initial shareholders and their affiliates have no obligation or current intention to do so. If our initial shareholders or any of their affiliates elects to make additional investments, such proposed investments could influence our initial shareholder’s motivation to complete an initial business combination.

Table of Contents

In the event our sponsor or members of our management team provide loans to us to finance transaction costs and/or incur out-of-pocket expenses on our behalf in connection with an initial business combination, such persons may have a conflict of interest in determining whether a particular target business is an appropriate business with which to effectuate our initial business combination as such loans may not be repaid and/or such expenses may not be reimbursed unless we consummate such business combination.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, requires our executive officers, directors and persons who beneficially own more than 10% of a registered class of our equity securities to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership of our ordinary shares and other equity securities. These executive officers, directors, and greater than 10% beneficial owners are required by SEC regulation to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) forms filed by such reporting persons.

Based solely on our review of such forms furnished to us and written representations from certain reporting persons, we believe that all filing requirements applicable to our executive officers, directors and greater than 10% beneficial owners were filed in a timely manner.

Item 11. Executive Compensation.

Employment Agreements

We have not entered into any employment agreements with our executive officers and have not made any agreements to provide benefits upon termination of employment.

Executive Officers and Director Compensation

None of our officers or directors has received any cash compensation for services rendered to us, except that on April 29, 2025, our Sponsor transferred to each independent director, Jon M. Montgomery, Dr. H. David Sherman, and Brian Ferrier 10,000 founder shares, all at the original purchase price when the sponsor acquired such shares from us, all at the original purchase price when the sponsor acquired such shares from us. Other than as set forth elsewhere, compensation of any kind, including finders, consulting or other similar fees, will be paid to any of our existing shareholders, including our directors, or any of their respective affiliates, prior to, or for any services they render in order to effectuate, the consummation of a business combination. Our Sponsor, officers and directors, or any of their respective affiliates, will be reimbursed for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with activities on our behalf such as identifying potential target businesses and performing due diligence on suitable business combinations. There is no limit on the amount of these out-of-pocket expenses and there will be no review of the reasonableness of the expenses by anyone other than our board of directors and audit committee, which includes persons who may seek reimbursement, or a court of competent jurisdiction if such reimbursement is challenged.

After the completion of our initial business combination, directors or members of our management team who remain with us may be paid consulting, management or other fees from the combined company. All of these fees will be fully disclosed to shareholders, to the extent then known, in the tender offer materials or proxy solicitation materials furnished to our shareholders in connection with a proposed business combination.

We do not intend to take any action to ensure that members of our management team maintain their positions with us after the consummation of our initial business combination, although it is possible that some or all of our officers and directors may negotiate employment or consulting arrangements to remain with us after the initial business combination. The existence or terms of any such employment or consulting arrangements to retain their positions with us may influence our management’s motivation in identifying or selecting a target business but we do not believe that the ability of our management to remain with us after the consummation of our initial business combination will be a determining factor in our decision to proceed with any potential business combination. We are not party to any agreements with our officers and directors that provide for benefits upon termination of employment.

Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence.

Founder Shares

On November 6, 2024, 1,725,000 Ordinary Shares were subscribed by the Sponsor at a price of approximately $0.014 per share for an aggregate amount of $25,000, which included an aggregate of 225,000 Ordinary Shares that are subject to forfeiture if the over-allotment option is not exercised. The per share purchase price of the founder shares was determined by dividing the amount of cash contributed to the company by the aggregate number of founder shares issued. On May 1, 2025, the over-allotment option has been fully exercised. As a result, the 225,000 founder shares were no longer subject to forfeiture.

Administrative Service Fee

The Company has agreed, commencing on the signing of the administrative services agreement with the sponsor on November 17, 2024, to pay the sponsor a monthly fee of up to $10,000 up to the consummation of business combination, for the Company’s use of its personnel and other administrative resources. For the year ended December 31, 2025 and for the period from October 21, 2024 (Inception) to December 31, 2024, the Company had paid $120,000 and $14,000 to the sponsor, respectively. As of December 31, 2025, the Company had paid an aggregate of $134,000 to the sponsor.

Related Party Loans

On December 11, 2024, the Company issued a $300,000 principal amount unsecured promissory note to the Company’s sponsor, and the Company had received such amount as of the issuance date. The note is non-interest bearing, and due after the date on which the IPO is consummated or the Company determines to abandon the IPO. On May 1, 2025, the $300,000 loan was repaid fully to the sponsor. No amounts were owed under the promissory note as of December 31, 2025.

In order to meet its working capital needs following the consummation of the IPO, the Company’s initial shareholders, officers and directors or their affiliates may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds, from time to time or at any time, in whatever amount they deem reasonable in their sole discretion. Each working capital loan would be evidenced by a promissory note and would either be paid upon consummation of the Company’s initial business combination, without interest, or, at the lender’s discretion, up to $1,000,000 of the working capital loan may be converted upon consummation of the Company’s business combination into additional private units at a price of $10.00 per unit. If the Company does not complete a business combination, the working capital loan will only be repaid with funds not held in the Trust Account and only to the extent available.

Other Related Party Transactions

For the year ended December 31, 2025 and for the period from October 21, 2024 (Inception) to December 31, 2024, total reimbursement of out-of-pocket expenses paid to our sponsor, officers or directors were $40,872 and nil, respectively. The outstanding balance amount of unreimbursed expenses was nil at December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

Related Party Policy

Our Code of Ethics requires us to avoid, wherever possible, all related party transactions that could result in actual or potential conflicts of interests, except under guidelines approved by the board of directors (or the audit committee). Related-party transactions are defined as transactions in which (1) the aggregate amount involved will or may be expected to exceed $120,000 in any calendar year, (2) we or any of our subsidiaries is a participant, and (3) any (a) executive officer, director or nominee for election as a director, (b) greater than 5% beneficial owner of our ordinary shares, or (c) immediate family member, of the persons referred to in clauses (a) and (b), has or will have a direct or indirect material interest (other than solely as a result of being a director or a less than 10% beneficial owner of another entity). A conflict of interest situation can arise when a person takes actions or has interests that may make it difficult to perform his or her work objectively and effectively. Conflicts of interest may also arise if a person, or a member of his or her family, receives improper personal benefits as a result of his or her position.

Our audit committee, pursuant to its written charter, will be responsible for reviewing and approving related-party transactions to the extent we enter into such transactions. All ongoing and future transactions between us and any of our officers and directors or their respective affiliates will be on terms believed by us to be no less favorable to us than are available from unaffiliated third parties. Such transactions will require prior approval by our audit committee and a majority of our uninterested “independent” directors, or the members of our board who do not have an interest in the transaction, in either case who had access, at our expense, to our attorneys or independent legal counsel. We will not enter into any such transaction unless our audit committee and a majority of our disinterested “independent” directors determine that the terms of such transaction are no less favorable to us than those that would be available to us with respect to such a transaction from unaffiliated third parties. Additionally, we require each of our directors and executive officers to complete a directors’ and officers’ questionnaire that elicits information about related party transactions.

These procedures are intended to determine whether any such related party transaction impairs the independence of a director or presents a conflict of interest on the part of a director, employee or officer. To further minimize potential conflicts of interest, we have agreed not to consummate a business combination with an entity which is affiliated with any of our initial shareholders unless we obtain an opinion from an independent investment banking firm that the business combination is fair to our unaffiliated shareholders from a financial point of view. Furthermore, in no event will any of our existing officers, directors or initial shareholders, or any entity with which they are affiliated, be paid any finder’s fee, consulting fee or other compensation prior to, or for any services they render in order to effectuate, the consummation of a business combination.

Director Independence

The Nasdaq listing rules require that a majority of our board of directors be independent within one year of our IPO. An “independent director” is defined generally as a person that, in the opinion of the company’s board of directors, has no material relationship with the listed company (either directly or as a partner, shareholder or officer of an organization that has a relationship with the company). We have three “independent directors” as defined in the Nasdaq rules and applicable SEC rules. Our board has determined that each of Messrs. Sherman, Montgomery, and Ferrier is an independent director under applicable SEC and Nasdaq rules. Our independent directors will have regularly scheduled meetings at which only independent directors are present.

The above amounts include interim procedures and audit fees.

Audit-Related Fees. Audit-related services consist of fees billed for assurance and related services that are reasonably related to performance of the audit or review of our financial statements and are not reported under “Audit Fees.” We did not pay Adeptus Partners, LLC for professional services rendered for audit related fees for the year ended December 31, 2025 and for the period from October 21, 2024 (inception) through December 31, 2024.

Pre-Approval Policy

Our audit committee was formed upon the consummation of our IPO. As a result, the audit committee did not pre-approve all of the foregoing services, although any services rendered prior to the formation of our audit committee were approved by our board of directors. Since the formation of our audit committee, and on a going-forward basis, the audit committee has and will pre-approve all auditing services and permitted non-audit services to be performed for us by our auditors, including the fees and terms thereof (subject to the de minimis exceptions for non-audit services described in the Exchange Act which are approved by the audit committee prior to the completion of the audit).

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and

Shareholders of Lakeshore Acquisition III Corp.

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Lakeshore Acquisition III Corp. (the Company) as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the related statements of operations, shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for year then ended December 31, 2025 and for the period October 21, 2024 (inception) to December 31, 2024, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the financial statements). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2025 and for the period October 21, 2024 (inception) through December 31, 2024, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Substantial Doubt about the Company’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company has $756,592 cash, working capital of $690,592, and will continue to incur significant costs in pursuit of an acquisition, that raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

We have served as the Company’s auditor since 2024.

LAKESHORE ACQUISITION III CORP.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1 — Organization and Business Operations

Lakeshore Acquisition III Corp. (the “Company”) was incorporated in the Cayman Islands on October 21, 2024, as a blank check company whose objective is to acquire, through a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or other similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities. The Company’s efforts to identify a prospective target business will not be limited to any particular industry or geographic region.

As of December 31, 2025, the Company had not yet commenced any operations and had not generated revenue. All activities for the period from October 21, 2024 (inception) through December 31, 2025 relate to the Company’s formation and the initial public offering (the “IPO”) described below and the efforts for its initial business combination. The Company will not generate any operating revenue until after its initial business combination, at the earliest. The Company will generate non-operating income in the form of interest income on cash and cash equivalents from the proceeds derived from the IPO. The Company has selected December 31 as its fiscal year-end.

The Company’s sponsor is Redone Investment Limited, a BVI limited liability company.

Financing

The registration statement for the Company’s IPO (as described in Note 3) was declared effective on April 29, 2025 (the “Effective Date”). On May 1, 2025, the Company consummated an IPO of 6,900,000 units, which includes the full exercise of the over-allotment option by the underwriters in the IPO, at $10.00 per unit (the “Public Units”), generating total gross proceeds of $69,000,000.

Simultaneously with the IPO, the Company sold to its sponsor 280,000 units at $10.00 per unit (the “Private Units”) in a private placement (as described in Note 4), generating total gross proceeds of $2,800,000.cash

Offering costs amounted to $3,934,900, consisting of $1,035,000 of underwriting commissions, $2,415,000 of deferred underwriting commissions to be in the form of ordinary shares at $10.00 per share upon the consummation of the Company’s initial business combination, and $484,900 of other offering costs. The Company received net proceeds of $70,280,100 from the IPO and the private placement without considering deferred underwriting commissions.

Trust Account

Upon the closing of the IPO and the private placement, $69,000,000 was placed in a trust account (the “Trust Account”) with Wilmington Trust, National Association acting as trustee.

The funds held in the trust account can be invested in United States government treasury bills, notes or bonds having a maturity of 180 days or less or in money market funds meeting the applicable conditions under Rule 2a-7 promulgated under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, until the earlier of the consummation of its first business combination and the Company’s failure to consummate a business combination within 15 months from the consummation of the IPO.

Placing funds in the Trust Account may not protect those funds from third party claims against the Company. In addition, interest income earned on the funds in the Trust Account may be released to the Company to pay its income or other tax obligations. With these exceptions, expenses incurred by the Company may be paid prior to a business combination only from the net proceeds of the IPO and private placement not held in the Trust Account.

F-6
Table of Contents

Business Combination

Pursuant to Nasdaq listing rules, the Company’s initial business combination may occur with one or more target businesses having an aggregate fair market value equal to at least 80% of the value of the funds in the Trust Account (excluding any taxes payable on the income earned on the Trust Account), which the Company refers to as the 80% test, at the time of the execution of a definitive agreement for its initial business combination, although the Company may structure a business combination with one or more target businesses whose fair market value significantly exceeds 80% of the Trust Account balance. If the Company is no longer listed on Nasdaq, it will not be required to satisfy the 80% test.

The Company currently anticipates structuring a business combination to acquire 100% of the equity interests or assets of the target business or businesses. The Company may, however, structure a business combination where the Company merges directly with the target business or where the Company acquires less than 100% of such interests or assets of the target business in order to meet certain objectives of the target management team or shareholders or for other reasons, but the Company will only complete such business combination if the post-transaction company owns 50% or more of the outstanding voting securities of the target or otherwise owns a controlling interest in the target sufficient for it not to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act. If less than 100% of the equity interests or assets of a target business or businesses are owned or acquired by the post-transaction company, the portion of such business or businesses that is owned or acquired is what will be valued for purposes of the 80% test.

The Company will either seek shareholder approval of any business combination at a meeting called for such purpose at which shareholders may seek to convert their shares into their pro rata share of the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, less any taxes then due but not yet paid, or provide shareholders with the opportunity to sell their shares to the Company by means of a tender offer for an amount equal to their pro rata share of the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, less any taxes then due but not yet paid.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a public shareholder, together with any affiliate of his or any other person with whom he is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) will be restricted from seeking conversion rights with respect to 20% or more of the ordinary shares sold in the IPO without the Company’s prior written consent.

In connection with any shareholder vote required to approve any business combination, the initial shareholders will agree (a) to vote any of their respective shares in favor of the initial business combination and (ii) not to convert such respective shares into a pro rata portion of the Trust Account or seek to sell their shares in connection with any tender offer the Company engages in.

Liquidation

Pursuant to the amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, if the Company is unable to complete its initial business combination within 15 months from the effective date of the IPO, the Company will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than five business days thereafter, redeem 100% of the outstanding public shares at a price pro rata to the amount held in the Trust Account (less taxes payable and up to US$50,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses) and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the remaining holders of ordinary shares and the Company’s board of directors, liquidate and dissolve.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of December 31, 2025, the Company had $756,592 in cash held outside its Trust Account available for the Company’s working capital purposes.

The Company’s liquidity needs prior to the consummation of the IPO had been satisfied through a payment from the sponsor of $25,000 (see Note 7) for the founder shares and the loan under an unsecured promissory note from the sponsor of $300,000 in total (see Note 5). Upon the consummation of the IPO, the $300,000 loan was repaid fully to the sponsor and no amounts were owed under the promissory note.

Upon the consummation of the IPO with the over-allotment option fully exercised and the private placement (see Note 3 and Note 4), $69,000,000 of cash was placed in the Trust Account.

F-7
Table of Contents

Based on the foregoing, management believes that the Company will have sufficient working capital and borrowing capacity to meet its needs through the earlier of the consummation of a business combination or one year from this filing. Over this time period, the Company will be using these funds for paying existing accounts payable, identifying and evaluating prospective initial business combination candidates, performing due diligence on prospective target businesses, paying for travel expenditures, selecting the target business to merge with or acquire, and structuring, negotiating and consummating the business combination.

Going Concern

The Company performed an assessment on its ability to continue as a going concern in accordance with Financial Accounting Standard Board’s Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-15, “Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern”. The company has $756,592 cash, working capital of $690,592, and will continue to incur significant costs in pursuit of an acquisition. That raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. In addition, there is no assurance that the Company will be able to consummate the initial business combination within 15 months from the date of the IPO. In the event that the Company fails to consummate a business combination within the required period, the Company will face mandatory liquidation and dissolution subject to certain obligations under applicable laws or regulations. No adjustments have been made to the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities regarding the possibility of the Company not continuing as a going concern, as a result of cash shortage or failing to consummate a business combination within 15 months from the date of the IPO. Management plans to continue its efforts to consummate a business combination within 15 months from the date of the IPO.

Section 102(b)(1) of the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”) permits emerging growth companies to delay complying with new or revised financial accounting standards that do not yet apply to 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). 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 an election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of the Company’s financial 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.

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. There were no cash equivalents as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

Offering Costs Associated with the IPO

Offering costs consist of underwriting, legal, accounting, registration and other expenses incurred through the date of the closing of the IPO that are directly related to the IPO. As of May 1, 2025, offering costs totaled $3,934,900. The amount was consisted of $1,035,000 of underwriting commissions, $2,415,000 of deferred underwriting commissions (payment shall be in the form of ordinary shares at $10.00 per share deferred until consummation of the Company’s initial business combination), and $484,900 of other offering costs. The Company complies with the requirements of the ASC 340-10-S99-1 and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) Topic 5A – “Expenses of Offering”. Offering costs were charged to shareholders’ equity upon the completion of the IPO. The Company allocates offering costs between public shares and public rights based on the estimated fair values of them at the date of issuance. Accordingly, $3,820,394 was allocated to public shares and was charged to temporary equity; $114,506 was allocated to public rights and was charged to shareholders’ equity.

Ordinary Shares Subject to Possible Redemption

The Company accounts for its ordinary shares subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in ASC Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” Ordinary shares subject to mandatory redemption (if any) are classified as a liability instrument and are measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable ordinary shares (including ordinary shares that feature redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the Company’s control) are classified as temporary equity. At all other times, ordinary shares are classified as shareholders’ equity. The Company’s public shares feature certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, ordinary shares subject to possible redemption are presented at redemption value per share as temporary equity, outside of the shareholders’ equity section of the Company’s balance sheets. The Company recognizes changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and adjusts the carrying value of redeemable ordinary shares to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Increases or decreases in the carrying amount of redeemable ordinary shares are affected by charges against additional paid-in capital or accumulated deficit if additional paid-in capital equals to zero.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under FASB ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the balance sheets, primarily due to their short-term nature.

F-9
Table of Contents

Fair Value Measurement

Pursuant to FASB ASC 820, 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 our assessment of the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

The Company has no assets subject to fair value measurement as of December 31, 2024. The following table presents information about the Company’s assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis at December 31, 2025 and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation inputs the Company utilized to determine such fair value:

Description	Level		December 31,<br><br>2025
Assets:
Marketable securities held in Trust Account		1	$	70,858,017

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the 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 financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist of cash accounts in a financial institution which, at times may exceed the federal depository insurance coverage of $250,000. As of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, $756,592 and $100,876 was deposited in cash accounts at Morgan Stanley, respectively. The Company has not experienced losses on these accounts and management believes the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such accounts.

Net Income (Loss) per Share

The Company complies with accounting and disclosure requirements of FASB ASC 260, “Earnings Per Share”. In order to determine the net income (loss) attributable to both the redeemable shares and non-redeemable shares, the Company first considers the undistributed income (loss) allocable to both the redeemable shares and non-redeemable shares and the undistributed income (loss) is calculated using the total net income (loss) less interest income in trust account less any dividends paid. The company then allocates the undistributed income (loss) ratably based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding between the redeemable and non-redeemable shares. Any remeasurement of the accretion to redemption value of the ordinary shares subject to possible redemption is considered to be dividends paid to the public shareholders.

For the year ended December 31, 2025 and for the period from October 21, 2024 (Inception) to December 31, 2024, the Company did not have any dilutive securities and other contracts that could, potentially, be exercised or converted into ordinary shares and then share in the earnings of the Company. As a result, diluted income (loss) per share is the same as basic income (loss) per share for the period presented. The calculation of diluted income (loss) per share does not consider the effect of the rights issued in connection with the IPO and the private placement since the conversion of rights to ordinary shares will be contingent on the occurrence of future events.

The net income (loss) per share presented in the statements of operations is based on the following computation:

In connection with the closing of the initial public offering and the underwriters’ full exercise of over-allotment option on May 1, 2025, the 225,000 shares were no longer subject to forfeiture. These shares were excluded from the calculation of weighted average shares outstanding until they were no longer subject to forfeiture.

Related Party Transactions

Parties, which can be a corporation or individual, are considered to be related if one party has the ability, directly or indirectly, to control the other party or exercise significant influence over the other party in making financial and operational decisions. Companies are also considered to be related if they are subject to common control or common significant influence.

The Company identifies and discloses related party and related party transactions in accordance with ASC 850 Related Party Disclosures (“ASC 850”) and guidance of SEC, including the nature of the relationship, the description of the transactions, the dollar amounts, and any outstanding balances.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes under ASC 740 Income Taxes (“ASC 740”). ASC 740 requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for both the expected impact of differences between the financial statements and tax basis of assets and liabilities and for the expected future tax benefit to be derived from tax loss and tax credit carry forwards. ASC 740 additionally requires a valuation allowance to be established when it is more likely than not that all or a portion of deferred tax assets will not be realized.

ASC 740 also clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process for financial statements recognition and measurement of a tax position 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. ASC 740 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim period, disclosure and transition. The Company has identified Cayman Islands as its only “major” tax jurisdiction, as defined. Based on the Company’s evaluation, it has been concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in the Company’s financial statements. Since the Company was incorporated on October 21, 2024, the evaluation was performed for 2024 tax year which will be the only period subject to examination. The Company believes that its income tax positions and deductions would be sustained on audit and does not anticipate any adjustments that would result in a material change to its financial position. The Company’s policy for recording interest and penalties associated with audits is to record such items as a component of income tax expense. There were no interest and penalties incurred since the Company was incorporated on October 21, 2024.

The Company may be subject to potential examination by foreign taxing authorities in the area of income taxes. These potential examinations may include questioning the timing and amount of deductions, the nexus of income among various tax jurisdictions and compliance with foreign tax laws.

The Company’s tax provision was deemed to be de minimis for the period presented. The Company is considered to be an exempted Cayman Islands Company and is presently not subject to income taxes or income tax filing requirements in the Cayman Islands or the United States.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Table of Contents

Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards if currently adopted would have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements.

Note 3 — Initial Public Offering

Pursuant to the IPO on May 1, 2025, the Company sold 6,900,000 Public Units, which includes the full exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option, at a price of $10.00 per Public Unit. Each unit consists of one ordinary share and one right. Each right entitles the holder thereof to receive one-sixth of one ordinary share upon the consummation of an initial business combination. No fractional shares will be issued upon conversion of the rights (See Note 7).

All of the 6,900,000 public shares sold as part of the Public Units in the IPO contain a redemption feature which allows for the redemption of such public shares if there is a stockholder vote or tender offer in connection with the Business Combination and in connection with certain amendments to the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, or in connection with the Company’s liquidation. In accordance with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and its staff’s guidance on redeemable equity instruments, which has been codified in ASC 480-10-S99, redemption provisions not solely within the control of the Company require ordinary shares subject to redemption to be classified outside of permanent equity.

As of December 31, 2025, the ordinary shares subject to possible redemption reflected on the balance sheet are reconciled in the following table.

Note 4 — Private Placement

Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, Redone Investment Limited, the Company’s sponsor, purchased an aggregate of 280,000 Private Units in a private placement at $10.00 per Private Unit. The Private Units are identical to the units sold in the IPO, as each private unit consists of one share of ordinary shares in the Company, and one right to receive one sixth (1/6) of a share of ordinary shares automatically upon the consummation of an initial business combination.

The holders of the private units have agreed (A) to vote the shares underlying their private units in favor of any proposed business combination, (B) not to propose, or vote in favor of, an amendment to the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association with respect to the Company’s pre-business combination activities prior to the consummation of such a business combination unless the Company provides public shareholders with the opportunity to convert their public shares in connection with any such vote, (C) not to convert any shares underlying the private units into the right to receive cash from the Trust Account in connection with a shareholder vote to approve an initial business combination or a vote to amend the provisions of the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-business combination activity or sell their shares to the Company in connection with a tender offer the Company engages in and (D) that the shares underlying the private units shall not participate in any liquidating distribution upon winding up if a business combination is not consummated.

Note 5 — Related Party Transactions

Founder Shares

On November 6, 2024, 1,725,000 shares of the Company’s ordinary shares were subscribed by the sponsor at a price of approximately $0.014 per share for an aggregate amount of $25,000, which includes an aggregate of 225,000 ordinary shares that are subject to forfeiture if the over-allotment option is not exercised. The per share purchase price of the founder shares was determined by dividing the amount of cash contributed to the company by the aggregate number of founder shares issued. On May 1, 2025, the over-allotment option has been fully exercised. As a result, the 225,000 founder shares were no longer subject to forfeiture.

Administrative Service Fee

Related Party Loans

As mentioned in Note 1, in order to meet its working capital needs following the consummation of the IPO, the Company’s initial shareholders, officers and directors or their affiliates may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds, from time to time or at any time, in whatever amount they deem reasonable in their sole discretion. Each working capital loan would be evidenced by a promissory note and would either be paid upon consummation of the Company’s initial business combination, without interest, or, at the lender’s discretion, up to $1,000,000 of the working capital loan may be converted upon consummation of the Company’s business combination into additional private units at a price of $10.00 per unit. If the Company does not complete a business combination, the working capital loan will only be repaid with funds not held in the Trust Account and only to the extent available.

Other Related Party Transactions

Note 6 — Commitments and Contingencies

Risks and Uncertainties

On August 16, 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (the “IR Act”) was signed into federal law. The IR Act provides for, among other things, a new U.S. federal 1% excise tax on certain repurchases (including redemptions) of stock by publicly traded domestic (i.e., U.S.) corporations and certain domestic subsidiaries of publicly traded foreign corporations. The excise tax is imposed on the repurchasing corporation itself, not its shareholders from whom shares are repurchased. The amount of the excise tax is generally 1% of the fair market value of the shares repurchased at the time of the repurchase. However, for purposes of calculating the excise tax, repurchasing corporations are permitted to net the fair market value of certain new stock issuances against the fair market value of stock repurchases during the same taxable year. In addition, certain exceptions apply to the excise tax. The U.S. Department of the Treasury (the “Treasury”) has been given authority to provide regulations and other guidance to carry out and prevent the abuse or avoidance of the excise tax. The IR Act applies to repurchases that occur after December 31, 2022.

F-14
Table of Contents

Therefore, any redemption or other repurchase that occurs after December 31, 2022, in connection with a business combination, extension vote or otherwise, may be subject to the excise tax. Whether and to what extent the Company would be subject to the excise tax in connection with a business combination, extension vote or otherwise would depend on a number of factors, including (i) the fair market value of the redemptions and repurchases in connection with the business combination, extension or otherwise, (ii) the structure of a business combination, (iii) the nature and amount of any “PIPE” or other equity issuances in connection with a business combination (or otherwise issued not in connection with a business combination but issued within the same taxable year of a business combination) and (iv) the content of regulations and other guidance from the Treasury. In addition, because the excise tax would be payable by the Company and not by the redeeming shareholders, the mechanics of any required payments of the excise tax have not been determined. The foregoing could cause a reduction in the cash available on hand to complete a business combination and in the Company’s ability to complete a business combination.

Underwriting Agreement

Registration Rights

The initial shareholders will be entitled to registration rights with respect to their initial shares, as well as the holders of the private units and holders of any securities issued to the Company’s initial shareholders, officers, directors or their affiliates in payment of working capital loans or extension loans made to the Company, will be entitled to registration rights with respect to the private units (and underlying securities), pursuant to an agreement signed on the effective date of the IPO. The holders of such securities are entitled to demand that the Company register these securities at any time after the Company consummates a business combination. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights on registration statements filed after the Company’s consummation of a business combination.

Engagement agreement with Legal Counsel

The Company has entered into an engagement agreement with its legal counsel with respect to the initial business combination. The fee will be based on the number of hours spent. An aggregate of $150,000 will be paid prior to the closing of the business combination, and the balance will be due upon the closing of the business combination.

Engagement Agreement – Fairness Opinion

An aggregate of $30,000 will be paid prior to and upon the effectiveness of the registration statement of the initial business combination, based on an engagement agreement entered into by the Company and the provider of fairness opinion for the initial business combination.

Engagement Agreement – Financial Advisory

The Company has retained a financial advisor with respect to the initial business combination. An initial retainer of $150,000 was paid during the year ended December 31, 2025. And the Company agrees to pay 500,000 newly issued shares of common stock at $10.00 per share at the closing of the business combination if the Company completes its initial business combination within 30 months from the engagement date.

Note 7 — Shareholders’ Deficit

Ordinary shares

The Company is authorized to issue 500,000,000 ordinary shares with a par value of $0.0001 per share.

F-15
Table of Contents

On November 6, 2024, 1,725,000 shares of the Company’s ordinary shares were subscribed by the sponsor at a price of approximately $0.014 per share for an aggregate of $25,000, which includes an aggregate of 225,000 ordinary shares that are subject to forfeiture if the over-allotment option is not exercised. The per share purchase price of the founder shares was determined by dividing the amount of cash contributed to the company by the aggregate number of founder shares issued. Since the over-allotment option was fully exercised, the 225,000 founder shares were no longer subject to forfeiture as of May 1, 2025.

On May 1, 2025, the Company sold 6,900,000 Public Units, which includes the full exercise of the over-allotment option by the underwriters at a price of $10.00 per Public Unit in the IPO; and the Company sold to its sponsor an aggregate of 280,000 Private Units at $10.00 per Private Unit. Each Public Unit and Private Unit consists of one ordinary share and one right.

As of December 31, 2025, there were 2,005,000 shares of ordinary shares issued and outstanding, excluding 6,900,000 shares subject to possible redemption.

Rights

Each holder of a public right will automatically receive one-sixth of one ordinary share upon consummation of an initial business combination. The Company will not issue fractional shares in connection with an exchange of rights. Fractional shares will be rounded down to the nearest whole share. As a result, the holders of rights must hold rights in multiples of six in order to receive shares for all of their rights upon closing of a business combination. If the Company are unable to complete an initial business combination within the required time period and redeem the public shares for the funds held in the trust account, holders of rights will not receive any of such funds for their rights and the rights will expire worthless. If the Company enters into a definitive agreement for a business combination in which the Company will not be the surviving entity, the definitive agreement will provide for the holders of rights to receive the same per share consideration the holders of the ordinary share will receive in the transaction on an as-converted into ordinary share basis.

The private rights have terms and provisions identical to public rights except that they are subject to certain transfer restrictions as set forth by a letter agreement.

The Company accounted for the public and private rights issued in connection with the IPO and the private placement based on an assessment of the rights’ specific terms and applicable guidance in ASC 480 and ASC 815.

The assessment considers whether the rights: (i) are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480; (ii) meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480; and (iii) satisfy all requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the rights are indexed to the Company’s own ordinary shares, and whether the right holders could potentially require “net cash settlement” in a circumstance outside of the Company’s control, among other conditions for equity classification.

Based on this assessment, the public and private rights met the criteria for equity classification under ASC 815 as of their issuance date and are classified as equity.

Note 8 — Segment Information

ASC Topic 280, “Segment Reporting”, establishes standards for companies to report, in their financial statements, information about operating segments, products, services, geographic areas, and major customers. Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise that engage in business activities from which it may recognize revenues and incur expenses, and for which separate financial information is available that is regularly evaluated by the Company’s chief operating decision maker, or group, in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance.

F-16
Table of Contents

The Company’s CODM has been identified as the Chief Executive Officer, who reviews the operating results for the Company as a whole to make decisions about allocating resources and assessing financial performance. Accordingly, management has determined that the Company only has one reportable segment.

The CODM assesses performance for the single segment and decides how to allocate resources based on net income or loss that also is reported on the statements of operations as net income or loss. The measure of segment assets is reported on the balance sheets as total assets. When evaluating the Company’s performance and making key decisions regarding resource allocation, the CODM reviews several key metrics, which include the following:

	As of<br><br>December 31,<br><br>2025		As of<br><br>December 31,<br><br>2024

The CODM reviews the Company’s financial position by reviewing the total assets available to determine if sufficient resources are in place to discharge liabilities. The CODM is provided with details of cash and liquid resources available with the Company. Additionally, the CODM regularly reviews the status of offering costs and general and administrative expenses incurred to assess if these are in line with the planned use of proceeds from the public offering.

Note 9 — Subsequent Events

The Company’s management reviewed all material events that have occurred after the balance sheet date through the date which these financial statements was issued. The Company did not identify any subsequent events that would have required adjustment or disclosure in the financial statements.

EXHIBIT 19

LAKESHORE ACQUISITION III CORP.

INSIDER TRADING POLICY

and Guidelines with Respect to

Certain Transactions in Company Securities

In order to take an active role in the prevention of insider trading violations by its directors, officers and other employees, as well as by other related individuals, Lakeshore Acquisition III Corp. (the “Company”) has adopted the policies and procedures described in this Insider Trading Policy (the “Policy”).

Applicability of Policy

This Policy applies to all transactions in the Company’s securities, including Ordinary Shares, preferred shares, options for Ordinary Shares and any other securities the Company may issue from time to time, such as subscription rights, warrants and convertible debentures, as well as to derivative securities relating to the Company’s stock, whether or not issued by the Company, such as exchange-traded options. It applies to all directors, officers and all other employees of, or consultants or contractors to, the Company, as well as family members of such persons, and others, in each case where such persons have or may have access to Material Nonpublic Information (as defined below). This group of people, members of their immediate families, and members of their households are sometimes referred to in this Policy as “Insiders.” This Policy also applies to any person who receives Material Nonpublic Information from any Insider.

Any person who possesses Material Nonpublic Information regarding the Company is an Insider for so long as the information is not publicly known. Any employee can be an Insider from time to time, and would be subject to this Policy.

Compliance Officer

The Company has appointed Deyin (Bill) Chen, as the Company’s Insider Trading Compliance Officer. Please contact him (or anyone that he has designated to field questions) with questions as to any of the matters discussed in this Policy.

Statement of Policy

General Policy

It is the policy of the Company to oppose the unauthorized disclosure of any nonpublic information acquired in the work-place and the misuse of Material Nonpublic Information in securities trading.

1

Specific Policies

1. Trading on Material Nonpublic Information. No director, officer or other employee of, or consultant or contractor to, the Company, and no member of the immediate family or household of any such person, shall engage in any transaction involving a purchase or sale of the Company’s securities, including any offer to purchase or offer to sell, during any period commencing with the date that he or she possesses Material Nonpublic Information concerning the Company, and ending at the open of business on the second full Trading Day following the date of public disclosure of that information, or at such time as such nonpublic information is no longer material. As used herein, the term “Trading Day” shall mean a day on which national stock exchanges are open for trading. A Trading Day begins at the time trading begins on such day. This restriction on trading does not apply to transactions made under a trading plan that has been adopted pursuant to Rule 10b5-1(c) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and that has been approved in writing by the Company (an “approved Rule 10b5-1 trading plan”).

2. Tipping. No Insider shall disclose (“tip”) Material Nonpublic Information to any other person (including family members) where such information may be used by such person to his or her profit by trading in the securities of companies to which such information relates, nor shall such Insider or related person make recommendations or express opinions on the basis of Material Nonpublic Information as to trading in the Company’s securities.

3. Confidentiality of Nonpublic Information. Nonpublic information relating to the Company is the property of the Company and the unauthorized disclosure of such information is forbidden. In the event any director, officer or other employee receives any inquiry from outside the Company, such as a stock analyst, for information (particularly financial results and/or projections) that may be Material Nonpublic Information, the inquiry should be referred to the Company’s Compliance Officer, who is responsible for coordinating and overseeing the release of such information to the investing public, analysts and others in compliance with applicable laws and regulations.

4. Blackout Period. All Section 16 Persons and Designated Insiders (contact the Insider Trading Compliance Officer if you are unsure whether you fall into either of these categories) must refrain from engaging in transactions involving a purchase or sale of the Company’s securities, including any offer to purchase or offer to sell, during the period in any fiscal quarter commencing two weeks prior to the end of the fiscal quarter and ending at the open of market on the third full Trading Day following the date of public disclosure of the financial results for the prior fiscal quarter or year (the “Blackout Period”).

5. Prohibition Against Margining of Company Securities. No Section 16 Person of the Company shall margin, or make any offer to margin, any of the Company’s securities as collateral to purchase the Company’s securities or the securities of any other issuer. Notwithstanding the previous sentence, this paragraph is not meant to, and shall not be construed so as to, affect the ability of any Section 16 Person of the Company, from using his or her securities as collateral to securitize a bona fide loan.

6. Prohibition Against Short Sales. No Section 16 Person or other employee of the Company shall, directly or indirectly, sell any equity security of the Company if the person selling the security or his principal (1) does not own the security sold, or (2) if owning the security, does not deliver it against such sale (a “short sale against the box”) within 20 days thereafter, or does not within five days after such sale deposit it in the mails or other usual channels of transportation. Generally, a short sale, as defined in this Policy, means any transaction whereby one may benefit from a decline in the Company’s stock price. While employees who are not executive officers or directors are not prohibited by law from engaging in short sales of the Company’s securities, the Company believes it is inappropriate for employees to engage in such transactions.

7. Prohibition Against Trading in Derivative Securities. No Section 16 Person or other employee of the Company shall purchase or sell, or make any offer to purchase or offer to sell, derivative securities relating to the Company’s securities, whether or not issued by the Company, such as exchange traded options to purchase or sell the Company’s securities (so called “puts” and “calls”). This paragraph is not meant to, and shall not be construed as to, affect the ability of the Company to grant options to officers, directors and employees under employee benefit plans or agreements adopted by the Board of Directors or the ability of officers, directors and employees to exercise such options and sell the underlying Ordinary Shares, provided that any such sale is otherwise in accordance with this Policy.

8. Prohibition Against Internet Disclosure. It is inappropriate for any unauthorized person to disclose Company information on the Internet and more specifically in forums (chat rooms) where companies and their prospects are discussed. Examples of such forums include but are not limited to Yahoo! Finance, Silicon Investor and Motley Fool. The posts in these forums are typically made by unsophisticated investors who are sometimes poorly informed, and generally are carelessly stated or, in some cases, malicious or manipulative and intended to benefit their own stock positions. Accordingly, no director, officer, employee, consultant or contractor or other party related to the Company may discuss the Company or Company-related information in such a forum regardless of the situation. Despite any inaccuracies that may exist (and often there are many), posts in these forums can result in the disclosure of material non-public information and may bring significant legal and financial risk to the Company and are therefore prohibited, without exception. Any post that is made by any person with access to Material Nonpublic Information, or information supplied by any such person for someone else to post, will be treated as a violation of this Policy.

Potential Criminal and Civil Liability and/or Disciplinary Action

1. Liability for Insider Trading. Pursuant to federal and state securities laws, Insiders may be subject to criminal and civil fines and penalties as well as imprisonment for engaging in transactions in the Company’s securities at a time when they have knowledge of Material Nonpublic Information regarding the Company.

2. Liability for Tipping. Insiders may also be liable for improper transactions by any person (commonly referred to as a “tippee”) to whom they have disclosed Material Nonpublic Information regarding the Company or to whom they have made recommendations or expressed opinions on the basis of such information as to trading in the Company’s securities. The Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) has imposed large penalties even when the disclosing person did not profit from the trading. The SEC, the stock exchanges and the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority use sophisticated electronic surveillance techniques to uncover insider trading.

3

3. Possible Disciplinary Actions. Employees of the Company who violate this Policy shall also be subject to disciplinary action by the Company, which may include ineligibility for future participation in the Company’s equity incentive plans or termination of employment.

Trading Guidelines and Requirements

1. Recommended Trading Window. The “Trading Window” is that period of a fiscal quarter during which the Section 16 Persons and Designated Insiders of the Company are not precluded (assuming they do not possess Material Nonpublic Information) from trading in the Company’s securities as described in Paragraph 2 below.

The safest period for trading in the Company’s securities, assuming the absence of Material Nonpublic Information, is generally the first 20 days of the Trading Window. However, even during the Trading Window any person possessing Material Nonpublic Information concerning the Company should not engage in any transactions in the Company’s securities until such information has been known publicly for at least one full Trading Day. This trading restriction does not apply to transactions made under an approved Rule 10b5-1 trading plan. Each person is individually responsible at all times for compliance with the prohibitions against insider trading.

2. Blackout Period and Trading Window. The Blackout Period is a particularly sensitive period of time for transactions in the Company’s stock from the perspective of compliance with applicable securities laws. This sensitivity is due to the fact that directors, officers and certain other employees will, during that period, often possess Material Nonpublic Information about the expected financial results for the quarter. All Section 16 Persons and Designated Insiders of the Company are prohibited from trading during the Blackout Period.

The prohibition against trading during the Blackout Period encompasses the fulfillment of “limit orders” by any broker for a Section 16 Person or Designated Insider, and the brokers with whom any such limit order is placed must be so instructed at the time it is placed.

From time to time, the Company may also prohibit Section 16 Persons and other employees, consultants or contractors from trading in the Company’s securities because of developments known to such persons in the Company and not yet disclosed to the public. In this event, such persons may not engage in any transaction involving the purchase or sale of the Company’s securities during such period and should not disclose that fact to others.

4

Any employee or other person possessing Material Nonpublic Information concerning the Company should not engage in any transactions in the Company’s securities until such information has been known publicly for at least one full Trading Day, whether or not it is during the Trading Window or the Company has recommended suspension of trading to that person. This trading restriction does not apply to transactions made under an approved Rule 10b5-1 trading plan. Trading in the Company’s securities during the Trading Window should not be considered a “safe harbor,” and all Section 16 Persons, employees and other persons should use good judgment at all times.

3. Pre-clearance of Trades. The Company has determined that all Section 16 Persons and Designated Insiders of the Company should refrain from trading in the Company’s securities, even during the Trading Window, without first complying with the Company’s “pre-clearance” process. Each Section 16 Person and Designated Insider should contact the Company’s Insider Trading Compliance Officer prior to commencing any trade in the Company’s securities. The Company may also find it necessary, from time to time, to require compliance with the pre-clearance process from certain other employees who have access to Material Nonpublic Information. A Section 16 Person or Designated Insider wishing to trade pursuant to an approved Rule 10b5-1 trading plan need not seek pre-clearance from the Company’s Insider Trading Compliance Officer before each such trade takes place; however, such person must obtain Company approval of the proposed Rule 10b5-1 trading plan before adopting it.

4. Individual Responsibility. Every person subject to this Policy has the individual responsibility to comply with this Policy against insider trading, and appropriate judgment should be exercised in connection with any trade in the Company’s securities. An Insider may, from time to time, have to forego a proposed transaction in the Company’s securities even if he or she planned to make the transaction before learning of Material Nonpublic Information and even though the Insider believes he or she may suffer an economic loss or forego anticipated profit by waiting.

Applicability of Policy to Inside Information Regarding Other Companies

This Policy and the restrictions and guidelines described herein also apply to Material Nonpublic Information relating to other companies, including the Company’s customers, vendors or suppliers (“business partners”), when that information is obtained in the course of employment with, or other services performed for, the Company. Civil and criminal penalties, and termination of employment, may result from trading on inside information regarding the Company’s business partners. All directors, officers and other employees should treat Material Nonpublic Information about the Company’s business partners with the same care required for information related directly to the Company.

5

Definition of Material Nonpublic Information

It is not possible to define all categories of material information. However, information should be regarded as material if there is a reasonable likelihood that it would be considered important to an investor in making an investment decision regarding the purchase or sale of the Company’s securities. In this regard, there are various categories of information that are particularly sensitive and, as a general rule, should always be considered material. Examples of such information include:

Financial Related Events

·	Financial results

| · | Projections of future earnings or losses |

| · | Stock splits |

| · | New equity or debt offerings |

| · | Impending bankruptcy or financial liquidity problems |

| · | Creation of a material direct or contingent financial obligation |

Corporate Developments

·	Pending or proposed merger or acquisition

| · | Disposition or acquisition of significant assets |

| · | Significant litigation exposure due to actual or threatened litigation |

| · | Major changes in senior management |

| · | Material agreement not in the ordinary course of business (or termination thereof) |

Nonpublic information is information that has not been previously disclosed to the general public and is otherwise not available to the general public. Either positive or negative information may be material.

Certain Exceptions

For purposes of this Policy, the Company considers that the exercise of stock options for cash under the Company’s stock option plans or the purchase of shares under the Company’s employee stock purchase plan (but not the sale of any such shares) is exempt from this Policy, since the other party to the transaction is the Company itself and the price does not vary with the market but is fixed by the terms of the option agreement or the plan.

Additional Information - Directors and Officers

Directors and officers of the Company must also comply with the reporting obligations and limitations on short-swing transactions set forth in Section 16 of the Exchange Act. The practical effect of these provisions is that officers and directors who purchase and sell the Company’s securities within a six-month period must disgorge all profits to the Company whether or not they had knowledge of any Material Nonpublic Information. Under these provisions, and so long as certain other criteria are met, neither the receipt of an option under the Company’s option plans, nor the exercise of that option, nor the purchase of stock under the Company’s employee stock purchase plan is deemed a purchase under Section 16(b); however, the sale of any such shares is a sale under Section 16. Moreover, pursuant to Section 16(c) of the Exchange Act (as well as this Policy), no Section 16 Persons or any other employee may make a short sale of the Company’s stock. The Company has provided, or will provide, separate memoranda and other appropriate materials to its officers and directors regarding compliance with Section 16 and its related rules.

Persons subject to the reporting requirements of Section 16 must file their statements of change in ownership on Form 4 before the end of the second business day following such change in ownership. These reports will be made available on our corporate website and a publicly accessible Internet site maintained by the SEC.

Inquiries

Please direct your questions as to any of the matters discussed in this Policy to the Company’s Insider Trading Compliance Officer.

LAKESHORE ACQUISITION III CORP.

CLAWBACK POLICY

Introduction

The Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Lakeshore Acquisition III Corp. (the “Company”) believes that it is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders to create and maintain a culture that emphasizes integrity and accountability and that reinforces the Company’s pay-for-performance compensation philosophy. The Board has therefore adopted this policy which provides for the recoupment of certain executive compensation in the event of an accounting restatement resulting from material noncompliance with financial reporting requirements under the federal securities laws (the “Policy”). This Policy is designed to comply with Section 10D of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”).

Administration

This Policy shall be administered by the Board or, if so designated by the Board, the Compensation Committee, in which case references herein to the Board shall be deemed references to the Compensation Committee. Any determinations made by the Board shall be final and binding on all affected individuals.

Covered Executives

This Policy applies to the Company’s current and former executive officers, as determined by the Board in accordance with Section 10D of the Exchange Act and the listing standards of the national securities exchange on which the Company’s securities are listed, and such other senior executives/employees who may from time to time be deemed subject to the Policy by the Board (“Covered Executives”).

Recoupment; Accounting Restatement

In the event the Company is required to prepare an accounting restatement of its financial statements due to the Company’s material noncompliance with any financial reporting requirement under the securities laws, the Board will require reimbursement or forfeiture of any excess Incentive Compensation received by any Covered Executive during the three completed fiscal years immediately preceding the date on which the Company is required to prepare an accounting restatement.

Incentive Compensation

For purposes of this Policy, Incentive Compensation means any of the following; provided that such compensation is granted, earned, or vested based wholly or in part on the attainment of a financial reporting measure:

·	Annual cash bonuses and other short- and long-term cash incentives
·	Stock options
·	Stock appreciation rights
·	Restricted stock

1

·	Restricted stock units
·	Performance shares
·	Performance units

Financial reporting measures are measures that are determined and presented in accordance with the accounting principles used in preparing the Company’s financial statements, and any measures that are derived wholly or in part from such measures, including:

·	Company stock price
·	Total shareholder return
·	Revenues
·	Net income
·	Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA)
·	Earnings per share
·	“Non-GAAP financial measures” for purposes of Exchange Act Regulation G and 17CFR 229.10

Excess Incentive Compensation: Amount Subject to Recovery

The amount to be recovered will be the excess of the Incentive Compensation paid to the Covered Executive based on the erroneous data over the Incentive Compensation that would have been paid to the Covered Executive had it been based on the restated results, as determined by the Board.

If the Board cannot determine the amount of excess Incentive Compensation received by the Covered Executive directly from the information in the accounting restatement, then it will make its determination based on a reasonable estimate of the effect of the accounting restatement.

Method of Recoupment

The Board will determine, in its sole discretion, the method for recouping Incentive Compensation hereunder which may include, without limitation:

·	requiring reimbursement of cash Incentive Compensation previously paid;
·	seeking recovery of any gain realized on the vesting, exercise, settlement, sale, transfer, or other disposition of any equity-based awards;
·	offsetting the recouped amount from any compensation otherwise owed by the Company to the Covered Executive;
·	cancelling outstanding vested or unvested equity awards; and
·	taking any other remedial and recovery action permitted by law, as determined by the Board.

2

No Indemnification

The Company shall not indemnify any Covered Executives against the loss of any incorrectly awarded Incentive Compensation.

Interpretation

The Board is authorized to interpret and construe this Policy and to make all determinations necessary, appropriate, or advisable for the administration of this Policy. It is intended that this Policy be interpreted in a manner that is consistent with the requirements of Section 10D of the Exchange Act and any applicable rules or standards adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission or any national securities exchange on which the Company’s securities are listed.

Effective Date

This Policy shall be effective as of the effectiveness date of the Company’s initial public offering (the “Effective Date”) and shall apply to Incentive Compensation that is approved, awarded or granted to Covered Executives on or after that date.

Amendment; Termination

The Board may amend this Policy from time to time in its discretion and shall amend this Policy as it deems necessary to reflect final regulations adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission under Section 10D of the Exchange Act and to comply with any rules or standards adopted by any national securities exchange on which the Company’s securities are listed. The Board may terminate this Policy at any time.

Other Recoupment Rights

The Board intends that this Policy will be applied to the fullest extent of the law. The Board may require that any employment agreement, equity award agreement, or similar agreement entered into on or after the Effective Date shall, as a condition to the grant of any benefit thereunder, require a Covered Executive to agree to abide by the terms of this Policy. Any right of recoupment under this Policy is in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other remedies or rights of recoupment that may be available to the Company pursuant to the terms of any similar policy in any employment agreement, equity award agreement, or similar agreement and any other legal remedies available to the Company.

Impracticability

The Board shall recover any excess Incentive Compensation in accordance with this Policy unless such recovery would be impracticable, as determined by the Board in accordance with Rule 10D-1 of the Exchange Act and the listing standards of any national securities exchange on which the Company’s securities are listed.

Successors

This Policy shall be binding and enforceable against all Covered Executives and their beneficiaries, heirs, executors, administrators or other legal representatives.
