Overview


We are a blank check company incorporated as a Delaware corporation and formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar Business Combination with one or more businesses. We are not presently engaged in, and we will not engage in, any operations until we consummate our Business Combination. We intend to effectuate our Business Combination using cash from the proceeds of our initial public offering, the private placement of the private shares, the private placement of the forward purchase shares, the proceeds of the sale of our shares in connection with our Business Combination (pursuant to forward purchase agreements or backstop agreements we may enter into following the closing of our initial public offering or otherwise), shares issued to the owners of the target, debt issued to bank or other lenders or the owners of the target, or a combination of the foregoing. We have not selected any specific Business Combination target.





                                       19




The issuance of additional shares in connection with aBusiness Combination to the owners of the target or other investors, including the forward purchase shares:

? may significantly dilute the equity interest of our public stockholders, which

dilution would increase if the anti-dilution provisions in the Class B common

stock resulted in the issuance of shares of Class A common stock on a greater

than one-to-one basis upon conversion of the Class B common stock;

? may subordinate the rights of holders of our common stock if preferred stock is

issued with rights senior to those afforded our common stock;

? could cause a change in control if a substantial number of shares of our common

stock is issued, which may affect, among other things, our ability to use our

net operating loss carry forwards, if any, and could result in the resignation

or removal of our present officers and directors;

? may have the effect of delaying or preventing a change of control of us by

diluting the stock ownership or voting rights of a person seeking to obtain


   control of us; and



? may adversely affect prevailing market prices for our Class A common stock


   and/or warrants.



Similarly, if we issue debt securities or otherwise incur significant debt to bank or other lenders or the owners of a target, it could result in:

? default and foreclosure on our assets if our operating revenues after aBusiness

Combination are insufficient to repay our debt obligations;

? acceleration of our obligations to repay the indebtedness even if we make all

principal and interest payments when due if we breach certain covenants that

require the maintenance of certain financial ratios or reserves without a

waiver or renegotiation of that covenant;

? our immediate payment of all principal and accrued interest, if any, if the

debt security is payable on demand;

? our inability to obtain necessary additional financing if the debt security

contains covenants restricting our ability to obtain such financing while the

debt security is outstanding;

? our inability to pay dividends on our common stock;

? using a substantial portion of our cash flow to pay principal and interest on

our debt, which will reduce the funds available for dividends on our common

stock if declared, our ability to pay expenses, make capital expenditures and

acquisitions, and fund other general corporate purposes;

? limitations on our flexibility in planning for and reacting to changes in our

business and in the industry in which we operate;

? increased vulnerability to adverse changes in general economic, industry and

competitive conditions and adverse changes in government regulation;

? limitations on our ability to borrow additional amounts for expenses, capital

expenditures, acquisitions, debt service requirements, and execution of our


   strategy; and



? other disadvantages compared to our competitors who have less debt.

Results of Operations


We have neither engaged in any operations nor generated any revenues to date. Our only activities from December 27, 2019 (inception) through June 30, 2022 were organizational activities, those necessary to prepare for the Initial Public Offering, described below, and identifying a target company for a Business Combination. We do not expect to generate any operating revenues until after the completion of our Business Combination. We generate non-operating income in the form of interest income on marketable securities held in the Trust Account. We incur expenses as a result of being a public company (for legal, financial reporting, accounting and auditing compliance), as well as for due diligence expenses.

For the three months ended June 30, 2022, we had a net loss of $182,767, which primarily consisted of formation and operating costs of $297,963 and earnings on cash and investments in the Trust Account of $116,349.

For the six months ended June 30, 2022, we had a net loss of $454,315 which primarily consisted of formation and operating costs of $570,269 and earnings on cash and investments in the Trust Account of $117,107.

For the three months ended June 30, 2021, we had net loss of $55,073 which primarily consisted of formation and operating costs of $55,223 and earnings on cash and investments in the Trust Account of $150.

For the six months ended June 30, 2021, we had net loss of $54,923 which primarily consisted of formation and operating costs of $55,073 and earnings on cash and investments in the Trust Account of $150.

Liquidity, Capital Resources and Going Concern

On February 11, 2022, we completed our Initial Public Offering of 15,000,000 Units at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $150,000,000. Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, we completed the sale of 8,500,000 Private Shares at a price of $10.00 per Private Share in a private placement to the Sponsor, generating gross proceeds of $8,500,000.

On February 18, 2022, in connection with the underwriters' exercise of their over-allotment option in full, we consummated the sale of an additional 2,250,000 Units at a price of $10.00 per Unit, generating an additional $22,500,000 of gross proceeds. In addition, we also consummated the sale of an additional 90,000 Private Shares at a price of $10.00 per Private Share, generating an additional $900,000 of gross proceeds.

Following the Initial Public Offering, the full exercise of the over-allotment option, and the sale of the Private Units, a total of $175,950,000 was placed in the Trust Account. We incurred $16,724,021 in Initial Public Offering related costs, with $16,343,583 reported in temporary equity and $380,438 in equity.

For the six months ended June 30, 2022, cash used in operating activities was $687,201. Net loss of $454,315 was affected by interest earned on marketable securities held in the Trust Account of $116,922. Changes in operating assets and liabilities used $115,964 of cash for operating activities.

For the six months ended June 30, 2021 cash provided by operating activities was $0. Net loss of $54,923 was affected by changes in operating assets and liabilities provided $54,923 of cash for operating activities.

As of June 30, 2022, we had marketable securities held in the Trust Account of $176,064,522 consisting of money market funds which are invested primarily in U.S. Treasury securities. Interest income on the balance in the Trust Account may be used by us to pay taxes. Through June 30, 2022, we have withdrawn $2,400 interest earned on the Trust Account for the payment of franchise or income taxes.

We intend to use substantially all of the funds held in the Trust Account, including any amounts representing interest earned on the Trust Account (less income taxes payable), to complete our Business Combination. To the extent that our capital stock or debt is used, in whole or in part, as consideration to complete our Business Combination, the remaining proceeds held in the Trust Account will be used as working capital to finance the operations of the target business or businesses, make other acquisitions and pursue our growth strategies.

As of June 30, 2022, we had cash of $1,054,559 held outside the Trust Account. We intend to use the funds held outside the Trust Account primarily for (i) legal, due diligence, travel and other expenses related to identifying, negotiating and completing aBusiness Combination, (ii) legal and accounting fees related to regulatory reporting requirements, (iii) administrative expenses, and (iv) working capital used for miscellaneous expenses and reserves. We believe that our cash held outside of the Trust Account, together with interest earned on the Trust Account and available for withdrawal to pay taxes, will be sufficient to fund our cash needs over the next 12 months, or if sooner, the earlier completion of the Company's Business Combination or the mandatory liquidation of the Company if it fails to complete a Business Combination by May 2023 (or August 2023 if the Company exercises its right to make an additional deposit to the Trust Account to extend the deadline for completion of its Business Combination).





                                       21




In order to fund any working capital deficiencies or finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor, or certain of our officers and directors or their affiliates may, but are not obligated to, loan us funds as may be required. If we complete a Business Combination, we will repay such loaned amounts. In the event that a Business Combination does not close, we may use a portion of the working capital held outside the Trust Account to repay such loaned amounts but no proceeds from our Trust Account would be used for such repayment. Up to $1,500,000 of the Working Capital Loans may be converted upon completion of a Business Combination into shares of the Class A common stock at a price of $10.00 per share, at the option of the lender.

We do not believe we will need to raise additional funds in order to meet the expenditures required for operating our business. However, if our estimate of the costs of identifying a target business, undertaking in-depth due diligence and negotiating a Business Combination are less than the actual amount necessary to do so, we may have insufficient funds available to operate our business prior to our Business Combination. Moreover, we may need to obtain additional financing either to complete our Business Combination or because we become obligated to redeem a significant number of our Public Shares upon consummation of our Business Combination, in which case we may issue additional securities or incur debt in connection with such 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 the mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution, should the Company be unable to complete a Business Combination, raises substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The Company has until May 2023 to consummate a Business Combination (or August 2023 if extended (discussed above)). It is uncertain that the Company will be able to consummate a Business Combination by this time. If a Business Combination is not consummated by this date, there will be a mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution. No adjustments have been made to the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities should the Company be required to liquidate after May 2023.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no obligations, assets or liabilities, which would be considered off-balance sheet arrangements as of June 30, 2022. 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


We do not have any long-term debt, capital lease obligations, operating lease obligations or long-term liabilities, other than an agreement pay the Sponsor a total of $10,000 per month for office space, utilities and secretarial and administrative support. We began incurring these fees on February 8, 2022 and will continue to incur these fees monthly until the earlier of the completion of the Business Combination and our liquidation.

The underwriters entitled to a deferred underwriting discount of 3.5% of the gross proceeds of the IPO and exercise of the over-allotment option, or $6,037,500, upon the completion of the Company's Business Combination.





Critical Accounting Policies


We describe our significant accounting policies in Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, of the Notes to Financial Statements included in this report. Our audited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Certain of our accounting policies require that the Company's management apply significant judgments in defining the appropriate assumptions integral to financial estimates. On an ongoing basis, the Company's management reviews the accounting policies, assumptions, estimates and judgments to ensure that our financial statements are presented fairly and in accordance with U.S. GAAP. 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.
