NEWBRIDGE ACQUISITION LIMITED
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1 — Organization and Business Operations
Newbridge Acquisition Limited (the “Company”) is incorporated blank check company incorporated as a British Virgin Island (“BVI”) company on
As of June 30, 2026, the Company had not commenced any operations. All activity through June 30, 2026 relates to the Company’s formation and the Initial Public Offering (as defined below). 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 and marketable securities held in trust from the proceeds derived from the Initial Public Offering (as defined below). The Company has selected December 31 as its fiscal year end.
The Company’s sponsor is Wealth Path Holdings Limited, a BVI business company (the “Sponsor”). The registration statement for the Company’s Proposed Public Offering was declared effective on September 30, 2025. The post-effective amendment to the registration statement was declared effective by the SEC on December 18, 2025. On February 2, 2026, the Company consummated the Initial Public Offering of
Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the sale of
Transaction costs amounted to $
The initial Business Combination must be with one or more target businesses or assets having an aggregate fair market value of at least
Following the closing of the Initial Public Offering on February 2, 2026, an amount of $
5
The Company will provide the public shareholders with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their public shares upon the completion of the initial Business Combination either (i) seek shareholder approval of such initial Business Combination at a meeting called for such purpose at which public shareholders may seek to convert their public shares, regardless of whether they vote for or against the proposed business combination, into their pro rata share of the aggregate amount then on deposit in the trust account or (ii) provide public shareholders with the opportunity to sell their public shares to us by means of a tender offer (and thereby avoid the need for a shareholder vote) for an amount equal to their pro rata share of the aggregate amount then on deposit in the trust account. The decision as to whether the Company will seek shareholder approval of a proposed Business Combination or conduct a tender offer will be made by the Company, solely in its discretion, and will be based on a variety of factors such as the timing of the transaction and whether the terms of the transaction would require the Company to seek shareholder approval under the law or stock exchange listing requirement. The initial shareholders have agreed, pursuant to written letter agreements with us, not to convert any public shares held by them into their pro rata share of the aggregate amount then on deposit in the trust account. If the Company determines to engage in a tender offer, such tender offer will be structured so that each public shareholder may tender any or all of his, her or its public shares rather than some pro rata portion of his, her or its shares. The Company will proceed with a Business Combination if the Company has net tangible assets of at least $
The ordinary shares subject to redemption will be recorded at a redemption value and classified as temporary equity upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering, in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.”
The Company will have only 15 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering (or up to 21 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering if the Company extend the period of time to consummate a Business Combination by the full amount of time) (the “Combination Period”) to complete the initial Business Combination. If the Company has not completed the initial Business Combination within the Combination Period, the Company will: (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem
The initial shareholders have agreed to waive their redemption rights with respect to their Founder Shares if the Company fail to consummate the initial business combination within the applicable period from the closing of this offering. However, if the initial shareholders, or any of officers, directors or affiliates acquire public shares in or after this offering, they will be entitled to redemption rights with respect to such public shares if the Company fails to consummate our initial business combination within the required time period. There will be no redemption rights or liquidating distributions with respect to the rights, which will expire worthless in the event the Company does not consummate our initial business combination within the allotted time period.
The sponsor has agreed that it will be liable to the Company, if and to the extent any claims by a vendor for services rendered or products sold to the Company, or a prospective target business with which the Company has discussed entering into a transaction agreement, reduce the amounts in the trust account to below $
The Company has not independently verified whether the sponsor has sufficient funds to satisfy its indemnity obligations and believes that the sponsor’s only assets are securities of the company. The Company has not asked the sponsor to reserve for such obligations and therefore believes the sponsor will be unlikely to satisfy its indemnification obligations if it is required to do so.
6
However, the Company believes the likelihood of the sponsor having to indemnify the trust account is limited because the Company will endeavor to have all vendors and prospective target businesses as well as other entities execute agreements with us waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to monies held in the trust account.
Business Combination Agreement
On August 3, 2026, the Company entered into a Business Combination Agreement (as it may be amended and/or restated from time to time, the “Business Combination Agreement”) with Newbridge Merger Sub, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Merger Sub”), and Startech Group Inc. (“Startech”). Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, at least one business day prior to the closing of the business combination, the Company will continue out of the British Virgin Islands and become a Delaware corporation by way of continuation (the “Domestication,” and the Company after such domestication, the “Domesticated Company”). Following the Domestication, Merger Sub will merge with and into Startech, with Startech surviving the merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Domesticated Company. In connection with the business combination, the Company will be renamed “Startech Inc.” Under the terms of the Business Combination Agreement, Startech equityholders will receive an aggregate number of shares of the parent company’s common shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing $
Going Concern Consideration
As of June 30, 2026, the Company had a working capital deficit of $
Note 2 — Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements are presented in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and pursuant to the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulations S-X of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Certain information or footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC for interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of a normal recurring nature, which are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, operating results and cash flows for the periods presented.
The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K as filed with the SEC. The interim results for the six months ended June 30, 2026, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the period ending December 31, 2026 or for any future periods.

Emerging Growth Company Status
The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart our Business Startups Act of 2012, (the “JOBS Act”), and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.
Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of the Company’s financial statements with another public company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Changes in estimates are recognized in the period of change and future periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash
The Company considers all short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. The Company did have any cash equivalents as of June 30, 2026. As of June 30, 2026, the Company has $
Cash and Marketable Securities Held in Trust
As of June 30, 2026, the Company had aggregated $
Deferred Offering Costs
The Company complies with the requirements of the ASC 340-10-S99 and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) Topic 5A — “Expenses of Offering.” Deferred offering costs consist principally of professional and registration fees that are related to the Initial Public Offering. Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) ASC 470-20, “Debt with Conversion and Other Options,” addresses the allocation of proceeds from the issuance of convertible debt into its equity and debt components. The Company applies this guidance to allocate Initial Public Offering proceeds from the Units between Class A ordinary shares and rights, using the residual method by allocating Initial Public Offering proceeds first to assigned value of the rights and then to the Class A ordinary shares. Offering costs allocated to the Public Shares will be charged to temporary equity and offering costs allocated to share rights included in the Public and Private Placement Units will be charged to shareholder’s equity as the share rights included in the Public and Private Placement Units after management’s evaluation will be accounted for under equity treatment.
Income Taxes
The Company follows the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes under FASB ASC 740, “Income Taxes.” Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statements carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that included the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.
8
ASC Topic 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. The Company’s management determined that the British Virgin Islands is the Company’s major tax jurisdiction. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. As of February 2, 2026, there were unrecognized tax benefits and amounts accrued for interest and penalties. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviation from its position. The Company’s management does not expect that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits will materially change over the next twelve months.
The Company 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 is considered to be a British Virgin Islands business company with no connection to any other taxable jurisdiction and is presently not subject to income taxes or income tax filing requirements in the British Virgin Islands or the United States. As such, the Company’s tax provision was zero for the periods presented.
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 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 ordinary shares feature certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to occurrence of uncertain future events.
In accordance with the SEC and its guidance on redeemable equity instruments, which has been codified in ASC 480-10-S99, redemption provisions not solely within the control of a company require ordinary shares subject to redemption to be classified outside of permanent equity. Given that the

Rights Accounting
Rights — Except in cases where the Company is not the surviving company in a Business Combination, each holder of a right will automatically receive one-eighth (1/8) of one ordinary share upon consummation of a Business Combination, even if the holder of a right redeemed all shares held by him, her or it in connection with a Business Combination or an amendment to the Company’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association with respect to its pre-business combination activities. In the event that the Company will not be the surviving company upon completion of a Business Combination, each holder of a right will be required to affirmatively redeem his, her or its rights in order to receive the one-eighth (1/8) of a share underlying each right upon consummation of the Business Combination. No additional consideration will be required to be paid by a holder of Public Rights in order to receive his, her or its additional ordinary shares upon consummation of a Business Combination. The shares issuable upon exchange of the rights will be freely tradable (except to the extent held by affiliates of the Company). 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 shares will receive in the transaction on an as-converted into ordinary share basis.
The Company will not issue fractional shares in connection with an exchange of rights. Fractional shares will either be rounded down to the nearest whole share or otherwise addressed in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Cayman Islands law. As a result, the holders of the rights must hold rights in multiples of ten in order to receive shares for all of the holders’ rights upon closing of a Business Combination. If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period and the Company liquidates the funds held in the Trust Account, holders of rights will not receive any of such funds with respect to their rights, nor will they receive any distribution from the Company’s assets held outside of the Trust Account with respect to such rights, and the rights will expire worthless. Further, there are no contractual penalties for failure to deliver securities to the holders of the rights upon consummation of a Business Combination. Additionally, in no event will the Company be required to net cash settle the rights. Accordingly, the rights may expire worthless.
The Company accounts for rights as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the right’s specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in ASC 480 and ASC 815 “Derivatives and Hedging” (“ASC 815”). The assessment considers whether the rights are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and whether the rights meet all of the 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. This assessment, which requires the use of professional judgment, is conducted at the time of right issuance and as of each subsequent quarterly period end date while the rights are outstanding.
For issued or modified rights that meet all of the criteria for equity classification, the rights are required to be recorded as a component of equity at the time of issuance. For issued or modified rights that do not meet all the criteria for equity classification, the rights are required to be recorded as liabilities at their initial fair value on the date of issuance, and each balance sheet date thereafter. Changes in the estimated fair value of the rights are recognized as a non-cash gain or loss on the statement of operations.
As the rights issued upon the Initial Public Offering and Private Placements meet the criteria for equity classification under ASC 815, therefore, the rights are classified as equity.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the accompanying balance sheet, primarily due to their short-term nature.
The Company applies ASC 820, which establishes a framework for measuring fair value and clarifies the definition of fair value within that framework. ASC 820 defines fair value as an exit price, which is the price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the Company’s principal or most advantageous market in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The fair value hierarchy established in ASC 820 generally requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. Observable inputs reflect the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability and are developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity. Unobservable inputs reflect the entity’s own assumptions based on market data and the entity’s judgments about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability and are to be developed based on the best information available in the circumstances.
| Level 1: | Assets and liabilities with unadjusted, quoted prices listed on active market exchanges. Inputs to the fair value measurement are observable inputs, such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. | |
| Level 2: | Inputs to the fair value measurement are determined using prices for recently traded assets and liabilities with similar underlying terms, as well as direct or indirect observable inputs, such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals. | |
| Level 3: | Inputs to the fair value measurement are unobservable inputs, such as estimates, assumptions, and valuation techniques when little or no market data exists for the assets or liabilities. |

The following table presents information about the Company’s assets and liabilities that were measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2026 and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques the Company utilized to determine such fair value.

Net Income per Ordinary Share
The Company complies with the accounting and disclosure requirements of FASB ASC Topic 260, “Earnings Per Share”. Net income per ordinary share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of ordinary shares outstanding for the period. Remeasurement associated with the redeemable shares of common stock is excluded from earnings per share as the redemption value approximates fair value.
The calculation of diluted net income per share does not consider the effect of the rights issued in connection with the (i) Initial Public Offering, and (ii) the private placement since the exercise of the rights are contingent upon the occurrence of future events. As of June 30, 2026, the rights are exercisable to purchase

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In November 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2023-07 —Segment Reporting — Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures (“ASU 2023-07”). This update requires public entities to disclose its significant segment expense categories and amounts for each reportable segment. The guidance 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. As of February 2, 2026, the Company reported its operations as a single reportable segment, noting no disaggregation of Company activities, management or allocation of resources by geographic region, business activity or organizational method, thus this new guidance does not affect the disclosures. See Note 9 for further information.
11
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (“ASU 2024-03”), and in January 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-01, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Clarifying the Effective Date (“ASU 2025-01”). ASU 2024-03 requires additional disclosure of the nature of expenses included in the income statement as well as disclosures about specific types of expenses included in the expense captions presented in the income statement. ASU 2024-03, as clarified by ASU 2025-01, is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact these standards will have on its financial statements and related disclosures.
In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-11, Interim Reporting (Topic 270): Narrow-Scope Improvements. The amendments clarify the applicability, form and content, and disclosure requirements of interim financial reporting under Topic 270. The amendments provide a comprehensive list of interim disclosure requirements under U.S. GAAP and establish a disclosure principle requiring entities to disclose events or changes occurring after the end of the most recent annual reporting period that have a material impact on the entity. The amendments are intended to improve the clarity and consistency of interim reporting requirements and do not change the fundamental nature of interim reporting or expand or reduce existing disclosure requirements. The amendments are effective for interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027 for public business entities. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU on its financial statements and related disclosures.
Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

Note 9 — Segment Reporting
ASC Topic 280, Segment Reporting, establishes standards for companies to report, in their financial statements, information about operating segments, products, services, geographic areas, and major customers. Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise that engage in business activities from which it may recognize revenues and incur expenses, and for which separate financial information is available that is regularly evaluated by the Company’s chief operating decision maker, or group, in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance.
The Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) has been identified as the , who reviews the assets, operating results, and financial metrics for the Company as a whole to make decisions about allocating resources and assessing financial performance. Accordingly, management has determined that the Company only has
The key measures of segment profit or loss reviewed by the CODM are income earned on marketable securities held in the Trust Account, and general and administrative expenses. The CODM reviews income earned on marketable securities held in the Trust Account to measure and monitor stockholder value and determine the most effective strategy of investment with the Trust Account funds while maintaining compliance with the trust agreement. General and administrative expenses are reviewed and monitored by the CODM to manage and forecast cash to ensure enough capital is available to complete a business combination within the business combination period. The CODM also reviews general and administrative costs to manage, maintain and enforce all contractual agreements to ensure costs are aligned with all agreements and budget.
All other segment items included in net loss are reported on the statement of operations and described within their respective disclosures.
Note 10 — Subsequent Events
On August 3, 2026, the Company entered into the Business Combination Agreement with Merger Sub and Startech. Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, at least one business day prior to the closing of the business combination, the Company will continue out of the British Virgin Islands and become a Delaware corporation by way of continuation. Following the Domestication, Merger Sub will merge with and into Startech, with Startech surviving the merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Domesticated Company. In connection with the business combination, the Company will be renamed “Startech Inc.” The consummation of the business combination is subject to customary closing conditions, including approval of the business combination by the shareholders of the Company and Startech, effectiveness of the registration statement, conditional approval for listing of the common shares of the Domesticated Company on Nasdaq or another national securities exchange, and other customary closing conditions set forth in the Business Combination Agreement.
The Company evaluated other subsequent events and transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date through August 7, 2026 that the financial statements were available to be issued, and did not identify any other subsequent events that would have required adjustment or disclosure in the financial statements.

Overview
We are a blank check company incorporated as a British Virgin Islands business company on April 16, 2021 for the purpose of entering into a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or other similar business combination with one or more target businesses. Our efforts to identify a prospective target business will not be limited to a particular industry or geographic region. As such, although we are not targeting target companies in China, we may consider a business combination with an entity or business with a physical presence or other significant ties to China, including Hong Kong and Macau, which may subject the post-business combination business to the laws, regulations and policies of China. We intend to utilize cash derived from the proceeds of the Initial Public Offering, our securities, debt or a combination of cash, securities and debt, in effecting a business combination.
We expect to continue to incur significant costs in the pursuit of our acquisition plans. We cannot assure you that our plans to complete a business combination will be successful.
Recent Development
Business Combination Agreement
On August 3, 2026, the Company entered into the Business Combination Agreement with Merger Sub and Startech. Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, at least one business day prior to the closing of the business combination, the Company will continue out of the British Virgin Islands and become a Delaware corporation by way of continuation. Following the Domestication, Merger Sub will merge with and into Startech, with Startech surviving the merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Domesticated Company. In connection with the business combination, the Domesticated Company will be renamed “Startech Inc.”
17
Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, Startech equityholders will receive an aggregate number of shares of common stock of the Domesticated Company equal to the quotient obtained by dividing $1.0 billion by $10.00, in exchange for all outstanding equity interests of Startech on a fully diluted basis.
The completion of the proposed business combination is subject to customary closing conditions, including approval by our shareholders and Startech’s stockholders, effectiveness of the registration statement to be filed with the SEC, conditional approval for listing of the common shares of the Domesticated Company on Nasdaq or another national securities exchange, and other customary closing conditions.
Certain Related Agreements
In connection with the execution of the Business Combination Agreement, we entered into certain ancillary agreements, including a Parent Support Agreement with our Sponsor and Startech, and a Company Support Agreement with Startech and certain stockholders of Startech. Pursuant to these agreements, the applicable parties agreed to take certain actions in support of the proposed Business Combination, including voting commitments with respect to the transaction and restrictions on alternative transactions.
The Business Combination Agreement also contemplates that, upon the closing of the proposed Business Combination, we will enter into an amended and restated registration rights agreement and certain lock-up agreements with applicable shareholders of the combined company. These agreements will govern registration rights and transfer restrictions relating to shares of the combined company following the closing of the proposed Business Combination.
Results of Operations
We have neither engaged in any operations nor generated any operating revenues to date. Our only activities since inception were organizational activities and those necessary to prepare for the initial public offering, described below and, after our initial public offering, identifying a target company for a business combination. We do not expect to generate any operating revenues until after the completion of our initial business combination. We expect to generate non-operating income in the form of interest income on marketable securities held after the initial public offering. We expect that we will incur increased expenses as a result of being a public company (for legal, financial reporting, accounting and auditing compliance), as well as for due diligence expenses in connection with searching for, and completing, a business combination.
For the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2026, we had a net loss of $88,605 and net income of $385,352, respectively, which primarily consisted of income earned on marketable securities held in Trust Account, and general and administrative expenses.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
On February 2, 2026, the Company consummated its Initial Public Offering of 5,750,000 Units, at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $57,500,000, including the full exercise by the underwriters of their over-allotment option in the amount of 750,000 units. Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Sponsor purchased an aggregate of 186,250 units at a price of $10.00 per unit for an aggregate purchase price of $1,862,500 in a private placement.
18
A total of $57,500,000 of the net proceeds from the Initial Public Offering and the Private Placement were deposited in a trust account established for the benefit of the Company’s public stockholders, with Equinity Trust Company, LLC acting as trustee.
We intend to use substantially all of the net proceeds of this offering and the sale of the private units, including the funds held in the trust account (excluding deferred underwriting discounts) to acquire a target business or businesses and to pay our expenses relating thereto. To the extent that our shares used in whole or in part as consideration to effect our initial business combination, the remaining proceeds held in the trust account as well as any other net proceeds not expended will be used as working capital to finance the operations of the target business or businesses. Such working capital funds could be used in a variety of ways including continuing or expanding the target business’ operations, for strategic acquisitions and for marketing, research and development of existing or new products. Such funds could also be used to repay any operating expenses which we had incurred prior to the completion of our initial business combination if the funds available to us outside of the trust account were insufficient to cover such expenses.
As of June 30, 2026, we had a working capital deficit of $690,733. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, net cash used in operating activities was $400,217. The Company’s liquidity needs prior to the consummation of the IPO had been satisfied through a payment from the Sponsor of $25,000 for the founder shares and an aggregate of up to $6,500,000 in loans available from the sponsor under an unsecured promissory note executed on May 1, 2021 and an unsecured promissory note executed on May 1, 2025, and due at the closing of this offering. On November 15, 2025, the Sponsor provided additional loans up to an aggregate amount of $5,000,000 under the new sponsor loan agreement. The funds were used to pay for our expenses of the Initial Public Offering and Business Combination with interest-free. As of June 30, 2026, we have borrowed $2,208,521 under the promissory note with the sponsor. Subsequent to the consummation of the Initial Public Offering, the Company expects that it will need additional capital to satisfy its liquidity needs beyond the net proceeds from the consummation of the Initial Public Offering and the proceeds held outside of the Trust Account for paying existing accounts payable, identifying and evaluating prospective 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 Initial Business Combination. Although certain of the Company’s initial shareholders, officers and directors or their affiliates have committed to loan the Company funds from time to time or at any time, in whatever amount they deem reasonable in their sole discretion, there is no guarantee that the Company will receive such funds.
The Company will use funds held outside the Trust Account primarily to identify and evaluate target businesses, perform business due diligence on prospective target businesses, travel to and from the offices, plants or similar locations of prospective target businesses or their representatives or owners, review corporate documents and material agreements of prospective target businesses, and structure, negotiate and complete a business combination. In addition, we could use a portion of the funds not being placed in trust to pay commitment fees for financing, fees to consultants to assist us with our search for a target business or as a down payment or to fund a “no-shop” provision (a provision designed to keep target businesses from “shopping” around for transactions with other companies or investors on terms more favorable to such target businesses) with respect to a particular proposed business combination, although we do not have any current intention to do so. If we entered into an agreement where we paid for the right to receive exclusivity from a target business, the amount that would be used as a down payment or to fund a “no-shop” provision would be determined based on the terms of the specific business combination and the amount of our available funds at the time. Our forfeiture of such funds (whether as a result of our breach or otherwise) could result in our not having sufficient funds to continue searching for, or conducting due diligence with respect to, prospective target businesses.
The Company has incurred and expects to continue to incur significant professional costs to remain as a publicly traded company and to incur significant transaction costs in pursuit of the consummation of a Business Combination. In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations 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,” management has determined that these conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. In addition, if the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the Company’s board of directors would proceed to commence voluntary liquidation and thereby a formal dissolution of the Company. There is no assurance that the Company’s plans to consummate a Business Combination will be successful within the Combination Period. As a result, management has determined that such an additional condition also raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statement does not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
19
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as defined in Item 303(a)(4)(ii) of Regulation S-K as of June 30, 2026. 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.
Commitments and Contractual Obligations
We do not have any long-term debt, capital lease obligations, operating lease obligations or long-term liabilities, other than agreements with affiliates of Sponsor to pay an aggregate of $10,677 per month for office space, utilities, and secretarial and administrative support.
The underwriters were entitled to a cash underwriting discount of half and one percent (1.5%) of the gross proceeds of the Initial Public Offering, amounting to $862,500.
Critical Accounting Estimates
The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and income and expenses during the periods reported. Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgement. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could materially differ from those estimates. We have identified the following as our critical accounting policies:
Common Stock 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 are classified as a liability instrument and 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 stockholders’ equity. The Company’s ordinary shares feature certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to the occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, 5,750,000 shares of ordinary shares subject to possible redemption are presented at redemption value as temporary equity, outside of the stockholders’ equity section of the Company’s balance sheet.
The Company recognizes changes in redemption value over the period from the date Immediately upon the closing of the IPO, the Company recognized the accretion from initial carrying amount to redemption book value. The change in the carrying value of ordinary shares subject to possible redemptions resulted in charges against additional paid-in capital.
Net Income Per Ordinary Share
The Company complies with accounting and disclosure requirements of FASB ASC Topic 260, “Earnings Per Share”. Net income per ordinary share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of ordinary share outstanding for the period. Remeasurement adjustments associated with the redeemable shares of common stock is excluded from earnings per share as the redemption value approximates fair value.
The calculation of diluted net income per share does not consider the effect of the rights issued in connection with the (i) Initial Public Offering, and (ii) the private placement since the exercise of the rights are contingent upon the occurrence of future events. As of June 30, 2026, the rights are exercisable to purchase 742,031 shares of common stock in the aggregate. The weighted average of these shares was excluded from the calculation of diluted net income common stock since the inclusion of such rights would be anti-dilutive. The rights cannot be converted to shares of common stock prior to an initial Business Combination; therefore, they have been classified as anti-dilutive.
Recent Accounting Standards
Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on our financial statements.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
As a smaller reporting company we are not required to make disclosures under this Item.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial and accounting officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2026, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial and accounting officer have concluded that during the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at a reasonable assurance level.
We do not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all errors and all instances of fraud. Disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met. Further, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all disclosure controls and procedures, no evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures can provide absolute assurance that we have detected all our control deficiencies and instances of fraud, if any. The design of disclosure controls and procedures also is based partly on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
During the quarter ended June 30, 2026, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
None.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
As a smaller reporting company, we are not required to make disclosures under this Item.
ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS
The following information relates to the registration statement on Form S-1 (File Number 333-289966), as amended (the “Registration Statement”) for our initial public offering (the “IPO”), which was declared effective by the SEC on September 30, 2025. The post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement was declared effective by the SEC on December 18, 2025. On February 2, 2026, we consummated our IPO of 5,000,000 Units. Each Unit consists of one Class A ordinary share, no par value, and one right to receive one-eighth (1/8) of one Class A ordinary share upon the consummation of an initial business combination. The Units were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $50,000,000. Pursuant to that certain underwriting agreement, dated January 29, 2026, we granted Kingswood Capital Partners, LLC, the representative of the underwriters, a 45-day option to purchase up to an additional 750,000 Units solely to cover over-allotments, if any, or the Over-Allotment Option. Simultaneously with the consummation of the IPO, the underwriters exercised the Over-Allotment Option in full, generating total proceeds of $7,500,000.
Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO on February 2, 2026, we consummated the Private Placement with Wealth Path Holdings Limited, or the Sponsor, of 186,250 Private Units, generating total proceeds of $1,862,500. The Private Units are identical to the Units sold in the IPO. Additionally, the Sponsor agreed not to transfer, assign, or sell any of the Private Units or underlying securities (except in limited circumstances, as described in the Registration Statement) until 30 days after the completion of our initial business combination or earlier if, subsequent to our initial business combination, we consummate a subsequent liquidation, merger, stock exchange or other similar transaction which results in all of our shareholders having the right to exchange their ordinary shares for cash, securities or other property. The Sponsor was granted certain demand and piggyback registration rights in connection with the purchase of the Private Units.
On February 2, 2026, a total of $57,500,000 of the net proceeds from the sale of the Units in the IPO and the Private Placement were deposited in a trust account established for the benefit of the Company’s public shareholders at Citibank, N.A. maintained by Equiniti Trust Company, LLC, acting as trustee.
We paid a total of $862,500 in underwriting discounts and $695,394 for other costs and expenses related to the IPO.
For a description of the use of the proceeds generated in our IPO, see Part I, Item 2 of this Quarterly Report.
