All statements, other than statements of historical fact included in this Form 10-Q including, without limitation, statements in this "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" regarding the completion of the Proposed Business Combination (as defined below), the Company's financial position, business strategy and the plans and objectives of management for future operations, are forward-looking statements. Words such as "expect," "believe," "anticipate," "intend," "estimate," "seek" and variations and similar words and expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements relate to future events or future performance, but reflect management's current beliefs, based on information currently available. A number of factors could cause actual events, performance or results to differ materially from the events, performance and results discussed in the forward-looking statements, including that the conditions of the Proposed Business Combination are not satisfied. For information identifying important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements, please refer to the Risk Factors section of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with theU.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC").

Overview
We are a blank check company incorporated in the
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.
Results of Operations
We have neither engaged in any operations nor generated any operating revenues to date. Our only activities from inception throughMarch 31, 2022 were organizational activities and those necessary to prepare for the initial public offering, described below, and following the 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.

In order to finance transaction costs in connection with a business combination,
the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor or certain of the Company's directors
and officers may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds as may be
required ("Working Capital Loans"). If the Company completes a business
combination, the Company would repay the Working Capital Loans out of the
proceeds of the trust account released to the Company. Otherwise, the Working
Capital Loans would be repaid only out of funds held outside the trust account.
In the event that a Business Combination does not close, the Company may use a
portion of proceeds held outside the trust account to repay the Working Capital
Loans, but no proceeds held in the trust account would be used to repay the
Working Capital Loans. The Working Capital Loans would either be repaid upon
consummation of a business combination, without interest, or, at the lender's
discretion, up to
Going Concern
The Company will need to raise additional capital through loans or additional
investments from its Sponsor, shareholders, officers, directors, or third
parties. The Company's officers, directors and Sponsor 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, to meet the
Company's working capital needs. Accordingly, the Company may not be able to
obtain additional financing. If the Company is unable to raise additional
capital, it may be required to take additional measures to conserve liquidity,
which could include, but not necessarily be limited to, curtailing operations,
suspending the pursuit of a potential transaction, and reducing overhead
expenses. The Company cannot provide any assurance that new financing will be
available to it on commercially acceptable terms, if at all. These conditions
raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going
concern through
Off-Condensed
balance Sheet Financing Arrangements
We have no obligations, assets or liabilities, which would be considered off-condensed balance sheet arrangements as ofMarch 31, 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-condensed balance sheet arrangements. We have not entered into any off-condensed 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 to pay our Sponsor

Class A Ordinary Shares Subject to Possible Redemption
We account for our ordinary shares subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 480 "Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity." Class A ordinary shares subject to mandatory redemption is classified as a liability instrument and is measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable ordinary shares (including ordinary shares that features redemption rights that is either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within our control) is classified as temporary equity. At all other times, ordinary shares are classified as shareholders' equity. Our Class A ordinary shares feature certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of our control and subject to occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption is presented as temporary equity, outside of the shareholders' deficit section of our condensed balance sheets.
Net Income (Loss) per Ordinary Share
Net income (loss) per ordinary share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of ordinary share outstanding for the period. The Company applies the two-class method in calculating earnings per share. Accretion associated with the redeemable Class A ordinary shares are excluded from earnings per share as the redemption value approximates fair value.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
InAugust 2020 , theFinancial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2020-06, Debt - Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts in Entity's Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40) ("ASU2020-06") to simplify certain financial instruments. ASU2020-06 eliminates the current models that require separation of beneficial conversion and cash conversion features from convertible instruments and simplifies the derivative scope exception guidance pertaining to equity classification of contracts in an entity's own equity. The new standard also introduces additional disclosures for convertible debt and freestanding instruments that are indexed to and settled in an entity's own equity. ASU2020-06 amends the diluted earnings per share guidance, including the requirement to use the if-converted method for all convertible instruments. ASU2020-06 is for fiscal years beginning afterDecember 15, 2021 and should be applied on a full or modified retrospective basis. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than fiscal years beginning afterDecember 15, 2020 , including interim periods within those fiscal years. Management is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU2020-06.
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 unaudited condensed financial statements.
