The following discussion and analysis of the Company's financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the unaudited interim condensed financial statements and the notes thereto contained elsewhere in this report. Certain information contained in the discussion and analysis set forth below includes forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. We have based these forward-looking statements on our current expectations and projections about future events. These forward-looking statements are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and assumptions about us that may cause our actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as "may," "should," "could," "would," "expect," "plan," "anticipate," "believe," "estimate," "continue," or the negative of such terms or other similar expressions. Factors that might cause or contribute to such a discrepancy include, but are not limited to, those described in our other SEC filings.

Overview

We are a newly organized blank check company incorporated on February 16, 2021 as a Delaware corporation and formed for the purpose of effect a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses (the "Business Combination").

Our sponsor is Integral Sponsor, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the "Sponsor"). The registration statement for our initial public offering was declared effective on November 2, 2021. On November 5, 2021, we consummated our initial public offering (the "Initial Public Offering") of 11,500,000 Units, including the full exercise of the underwriters' over-allotment option to purchase 1,500,000 units, at a purchase price of $10.00 per Unit. Offering costs amounted to $10,757,787 consisting of $2,000,000 of underwriting commissions, $6,050,000 of deferred underwriting commissions, an excess of fair value of the Founder Shares acquired by the Anchor Investors of $3,386,739, and $556,048 of other offering costs (before $1,235,000 of offering costs reimbursed by the underwriter). Of the total offering costs, $10,247,056 was charged to temporary equity and the remailing $510,731 is included in equity.

Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, we completed the private sale of an aggregate of 4,950,000 warrants, including 90,000 warrants issued in connection with the exercise in full by the underwriter of its option to purchase additional Units (the "Private Placement Warrants") to the Sponsor at a purchase price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $4,950,000.

Upon the closing of the IPO, management has agreed that an amount equal to at least $10.15 per Unit sold in the IPO, including the proceeds of the private placement warrants, will be held in a Trust Account ("Trust Account"), located in the United States with Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company acting as trustee, and will invest only in U.S. government securities, within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act, having a maturity of 185 days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 promulgated under the Investment Company Act which invest only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations. Except with respect to interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account that may be released to the Company to pay taxes, if any, the proceeds from the IPO and the sale of the private placement warrants will not be released from the Trust Account until the earliest of (i) the completion of initial Business Combination, (ii) the redemption of the Company's public shares if we are unable to complete an initial Business Combination within 18 months from the closing of the IPO, subject to applicable law, or (iii) the redemption of the Company's public shares properly submitted in connection with a stockholder vote to amend its amended and restated certificate of incorporation to modify the substance or timing of the Company's obligation to redeem 100% of its public shares if the Company has not consummated an initial Business Combination within 18 months from the closing of the IPO or with respect to any other material provisions relating to stockholders' rights or pre-initial Business Combination activity. The proceeds deposited in the Trust Account could become subject to the claims of our creditors, if any, which could have priority over the claims of our public stockholders.

We will have only 18 months from the closing of the IPO to complete the initial Business Combination (the "Combination Period"). However, if we are unable to complete the initial Business Combination within the Combination Period, we 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 public shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account (which interest shall be net of taxes payable and up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then outstanding public shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public stockholders' rights as stockholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any), and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the Company's remaining stockholders and the Company's board of directors, liquidate and dissolve, subject, in each case, to the Company's obligations under Delaware law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law.

Liquidity, Capital Resources and Going Concern

As of September 30, 2022, we had approximately $0.8 million in our operating bank account and working capital of approximately $1.1 million.

Prior to the completion of the IPO our liquidity needs had been satisfied through a loan under an unsecured promissory note with the Sponsor totaling $252,950 and the issuance of 2,875,000 Class B common stock at approximately $0.009 per share for gross proceeds of $25,000. There is no balance outstanding under the promissory note as of September 30, 2022. Subsequent to the consummation of the initial public offering our liquidity needs have been satisfied through the issuance of the Private Placement Warrants which generated gross proceeds of $4,950,000.

In connection with our 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 we be unable to complete a business combination, raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. We have until May 5, 2023 to consummate a Business Combination. It is uncertain that we 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 we be required to liquidate after May 5, 2023.

Risks and Uncertainties

Management continues to evaluate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the industry and has concluded that while it is reasonably possible that the virus could have a negative effect on our financial position, results of its operations and/or search for a target company, the specific impact is not readily determinable as of the date of these financial statements. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Inflation Reduction Act of 2022

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 of stock by publicly traded U.S. domestic corporations and certain U.S. domestic subsidiaries of publicly traded foreign corporations occurring on or after January 1, 2023. The excise tax is imposed on the repurchasing corporation itself, not its shareholders from which 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.

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 holder, the mechanics of any required payment 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.

Results of Operations

As of September 30, 2022, we had not commenced any operations. All activity for the period from February 16, 2021 (inception) through September 30, 2022 relates to our formation and the IPO and since the closing of the IPO, the search for a prospective initial Business Combination. We have neither engaged in any operations nor generated any revenues to date. We will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of our initial Business Combination, at the earliest. We will generate non-operating income in the form of interest income on cash and cash equivalents from the proceeds derived from the Initial Public Offering and held in out Trust Account. We expect to 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.

For the three months ended September 30, 2022, we had net income of $78,861, which consisted of trust interest income of $391,582, offset by operating costs of $240,378, an unrealized loss on the change in the fair value of the FPA liability of $43,577 and provision from income tax of $28,766.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we had net loss of $1,395,455, which consisted of operating costs of $780,468, provision from income taxes of $28,766 and an unrealized loss on the change in the fair value of the FPA liability of $1,033,639, partially offset by trust interest income of $447,418.

For the three months ended September 30, 2021, we had a net loss of $9,990 consisting of operating costs of $11,262 partially offset by an unrealized gain on the change in the fair value of the FPA liability of $1,272.

For the period from February 16, 2021 (inception) to September 30, 2021, we had net loss of $28,038, which consisted of formation and operating costs of $29,310 partially offset by an unrealized gain on the change in the fair value of the FPA liability of $1,272.

Contractual Obligations

We do not have any long-term debt obligations, capital lease obligations, operating lease obligations, purchase obligations or long-term liabilities.

Administrative Services Agreement

Commencing on the date the Units are first listed on the Nasdaq, we have agreed to pay the Sponsor a total of $20,000 per month for office space, utilities, and secretarial and administrative support. Upon completion of the Initial Business Combination or its liquidation, we will cease paying these monthly fees. Total administrative fee for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 are $60,000 and $160,000, respectively. No administrative fees had been recorded for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and for the period from February 16, 2021 (inception) to September 30, 2021. At September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, $0 is reported on the balance sheet as due to Sponsor for the administrative fees due.

Registration and Stockholder Rights

The holders of the (i) Founder Shares, which were issued in a private placement prior to the closing of this offering, (ii) Private Placement Warrants, which will be issued in a private placement simultaneously with the closing of this offering and the shares of Class A common stock underlying such private placement warrants, (iii) private placement warrants that may be issued upon conversion of working capital loans and (iv) the forward purchase shares that may be purchased pursuant to the related forward purchase agreements will have registration rights to require us to register a sale of any of our securities held by them prior to the consummation of our initial business combination pursuant to a registration rights agreement to be signed prior to or on the effective date of this offering. The holders of these securities are entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short form demands, that we register such securities. In addition, the holders have certain "piggy-back" registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to our completion of our initial business combination. We will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.

Engagement of Services

On May 28, 2021, the Company entered into a letter agreement with J.V.B. Financial Group, LLC ("J.V.B.") pursuant to which the Company engaged Cohen & Company Capital Markets, a division of J.V.B., to provide consulting and advisory services in connection with the IPO in return for a transaction fee to be paid to J.V.B. in an amount equal to 10.0% of the aggregate underwriting discount and commissions earned by the underwriters in connection with the IPO to be paid simultaneously with the actual payment of such underwriting discount and commissions to the underwriters upon (i) the closing of the IPO and (ii) the completion of the Company's initial Business Combination. J.V.B. was one of the Company's Anchor Investors that purchased Units in the IPO and became a member of the Company's Sponsor at the closing of our IPO to hold an indirect interest in a specified number of the Founder Shares held by the Sponsor.

On November 4, 2021, the Company paid J.V.B. $85,000 in cash from funds outside of the Trust Account. Funds due to J.V.B. upon the completion of the Company's initial Business Combination ($605,000 in the aggregate) will be paid by the underwriters.

Underwriter Agreement

The underwriters' were due a commission of $0.20 per unit, or $2,000,000 in the aggregate, on the first 10,000,000 Units sold in the IPO and the commission was capped at $2,000,000. Additionally, the underwriters agreed to reimburse us $1,235,000 for certain offering costs upon the IPO. On November 5, 2021, we paid a cash underwriting commissions of $765,000 net of the reimbursement.

The underwriters are entitled to deferred underwriting commissions of $0.50 on the first 10,000,000 Units sold in the IPO and $0.70 per unit per Unit sold thereafter, or $6,050,000 in the aggregate. The deferred fee will become payable to the underwriters from the amounts held in the Trust Account solely in the event that we complete an Initial Business Combination, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement for the offering.

Anchor Investment

Certain qualified institutional buyers or institutional accredited investors (none of which are affiliated with any member of the Company's management team, the Sponsor or any other anchor investor) (the "Anchor Investors"), have purchased an aggregate of approximately $60.8 million of the units in the IPO at the public offering price. There can be no assurance that the Anchor Investors will retain their Units prior to or upon the consummation of the initial Business Combination. In addition, none of the Anchor Investors has any obligation to vote any of their public shares in favor of the initial Business Combination.

The anchor investors have not been granted any stockholder or other rights that are in addition to those granted to our other public stockholders, and will only be issued equity interests in our sponsor, with no right to control our sponsor or vote or dispose of any securities held by our sponsor. Further, unlike some anchor investor arrangements of other blank check companies, the anchor investors are not required to (i) hold any units, Class A common stock or warrants they may purchase in this offering or thereafter for any amount of time, (ii) vote any shares of Class A common stock they may own at the applicable time in favor of our initial business combination or (iii) refrain from exercising their right to redeem their public shares at the time of our initial business combination. The anchor investors will have the same rights to the funds held in the trust account with respect to the Class A common stock underlying the units they may purchase in the IPO as the rights afforded to the Company's other public stockholders. The excess of the fair value of the Founder Shares was determined to be an offering cost in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 5A. Accordingly, offering cost associated with the IPO includes $3,386,739 of excess value of the anchor investors. The valuation of $6.78 per Founder Share (or $3,391,739 in the aggregate) of the anchor investors was reduced by $0.01 per founder share (or $5,000 in the aggregate), the price paid for the founder shares.

Forward Purchase Shares

Crescent Park, which is one of the Company's Anchor Investors, and Carnegie Park have agreed, as the forward purchasers pursuant to their respective forward purchase agreements entered into with the Company, to purchase up to 2,500,000 shares of Class A common stock in the case of Crescent Park and up to 500,000 shares of Class A common stock in the case of Carnegie Park (referred to herein as the forward purchase shares) at $10.00 per share (as such price per share may be reduced to $9.20 per share or further reduced to below $9.20 per share with respect to all or part of the forward purchase shares that are purchased in the manner described below) for gross proceeds up to $30,000,000 in the aggregate if all of the forward purchase shares are purchased at $10.00 per share (or up to $27,600,000 in the aggregate if all of the forward purchase shares are purchased at $9.20 per share or up to a lower amount in the aggregate if all of the forward purchase shares are purchased at less than $9.20 per share) in private placements that occurred concurrently with the consummation of the initial Business Combination.

The price to be paid for forward purchase shares will be reduced to or below $9.20 per share in the following circumstances:



     •    to $9.20 if the aggregate purchase price paid by the forward purchaser at
          $10.00 per share would exceed the lesser of (i) a specified dollar amount
          and (ii) a specified percentage of the aggregate purchase price paid by
          the purchasers of the SPAC's Class A common stock in private placements
          that occur on or prior to the date of the SPAC's initial business
          combination ("PIPEs");



     •    and to below $9.20 if the price per share in any PIPE is less than $9.20
          (in which case the price per share paid by the forward purchaser will be
          at an 8% discount from the price per share in such PIPE).

One of the forward purchasers and/or its affiliates is expected to purchase the Company's public units. If such forward purchaser and/or any of its affiliates sell more than 50% of the aggregate number of the public units purchased in the IPO or, following the separate trading of the public shares and the public warrants, the public shares that are a component of the public units that are purchased by the forward purchaser or any of its affiliates in the IPO, in sales that are consummated on or prior to the initial business combination, then the price per share for the forward purchase shares will remain at $10.00 per share for forward purchase shares in an aggregate number equal to the number of public units and public shares sold by the forward purchaser and/or its affiliates in such manner.

The following assumptions were utilized in the determination of fair value for the FPA liability:



     •    Each forward purchase share is one share of the Company's Class A common
          stock. No payment is due from the forward purchaser until immediately
          before the initial business combination. The purchase price is $10.00 per
          forward purchase share, subject to the discounted purchase price. The
          discounted purchase price is either at $9.20 per share or at an 8%
          discount to the PIPE price if the PIPE is priced below $9.20.



     •    The conditions upon obtaining a $9.20 purchase price are within the
          control of the holder of the forward purchase share (the "FPA holder")
          because the FPA holder will control the aggregate purchase price of the
          forward purchase shares to be purchased by the FPA holder and, in the
          case of the forward purchaser that is expected to purchase public units,
          such forward purchaser and its affiliates will control whether such
          forward purchaser and its affiliates sell or redeem more than 50% of the
          public units (or, following the separate trading of the public shares and
          the public warrants, the public shares) on or prior to the initial
          business combination. The FPA holder that is expected to purchase public
          units is assumed to have no negative economic impact from not selling or
          redeeming more than 50% of the public units (or, following the separate
          trading of the public shares and the public warrants) on or prior to the
          initial business combination since such forward purchaser would be
          selling at market price, without knowledge of future pricing, so that not
          selling or redeeming and realizing the 8% discount to market price on its
          future purchase is actually a positive feature to such FPA holder.
          Therefore, the Company's management assumed that the likelihood of the
          FPA holder to have a $10.00 purchase price is de minimus.

  Table of Contents

     •    Management assumed a PIPE would be priced below $9.20 per share only 5%
          of the time and would be priced at $9.00 per share when it is priced
          below $9.20 per share.

The purchase of forward purchase shares by Crescent Park and Carnegie Park as the forward purchasers pursuant to their respective forward purchase agreements will be subject to their respective internal approval processes and the other closing conditions set forth in their respective forward purchase agreements. Since the decision whether or not to purchase the forward purchase shares will be in the sole discretion of the forward purchasers, there can be no assurance that such purchases will be consummated.

Each of the forward purchasers has the right to transfer all or a portion of its rights and obligation to purchase the forward purchase shares to one or more transferees who are affiliates of the forward purchaser (the "forward transferees"), subject to compliance with applicable securities laws. Any such forward transferee will be subject to the same terms and conditions under the relevant forward purchase agreement. The forward purchase shares will be identical to the shares of Class A common stock underlying the units being sold in the IPO, except that they will be subject to certain registration rights and transfer restrictions. The funds from the sale of the forward purchase shares will be used as part of the consideration to the sellers in the initial Business Combination and any excess funds will be used for working capital in the post-transaction company. This commitment is independent of the percentage of stockholders electing to redeem their public shares and is intended to provide the Company with a minimum funding level for the initial Business Combination.

Critical Accounting Policies

Deferred Offering Costs

We comply with the requirements of the ASC 340-10-S99-1. Deferred offering costs consist of underwriting, legal, accounting and other expenses incurred through the balance sheet date that are directly related to the IPO. Offering costs are allocated to the separable financial instruments to be issued in the IPO based on a relative fair value basis, compared to total proceeds received. Upon closing of the IPO on November 5, 2021, offering costs amounted to $10,757,787 consisting of $2,000,000 of underwriting commissions, $6,050,000 of deferred underwriting commissions, an excess of fair value of the Founder Shares acquired by the Anchor Investors of $3,386,739, and $556,048 of other offering costs (before $1,235,000 of offering costs reimbursed by the underwriter), of the total offering costs, $10,247,056 was charged to temporary equity and the remaining $510,731 is included in equity.

Forward Purchase Agreement liability

We account for the 3,000,000 forward purchase shares (as described in Note 6) issued pursuant to the Forward Purchase Agreements (the "FPA") in accordance with the guidance contained in ASC 815-40. Such guidance provides that because the FPA shares do not meet the criteria for equity treatment thereunder, each FPA share must be recorded as a liability. Accordingly, we classify each FPA share as a liability at its fair value. This liability is subject tore-measurement at each balance sheet date. With each such re-measurement, the FPA liability will be adjusted to fair value, with the change in fair value recognized in the statement of operations.

Common Stock Subject to Possible Redemption

All of the 11,500,000 common stock sold as part of the Units in the IPO contain a redemption feature which allows for the redemption of such Public Shares in connection with our liquidation, if there is a shareholder vote or tender offer in connection with the Business Combination and in connection with certain amendments to our amended and restated certificate of incorporation. In accordance with 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 common stock subject to redemption to be classified outside of permanent equity. Therefore, all shares of Class A common stock have been classified outside of permanent equity.

We recognize changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and adjusts the carrying value of redeemable common stock to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Increases or decreases in the carrying amount of redeemable common stock are affected by charges against additional paid in capital and accumulated deficit.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Table of Contents

Net Income (Loss) Per Common Share

Net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common stock outstanding during the period, excluding common stock subject to forfeiture by the Sponsor. Weighted average shares were reduced for the effect of an aggregate of 375,000 common stock that are subject to forfeiture if the over-allotment option is not exercised by the underwriters. At September 30, 2022, we did not have any dilutive securities and other contracts that could, potentially, be exercised or converted into common stock 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.

Warrants

We account for the 10,700,000 warrants issued in connection with the IPO (comprised of 5,750,000 Public Warrants and 4,950,000 Private Placement Warrants) in accordance with the guidance contained in ASC 815-40. Such guidance provides that the warrants described are not precluded from equity classification. Equity-classified contracts are initially measured at fair value (or allocated value). Subsequent changes in fair value are not recognized as long as the contracts continue to be classified in equity.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In August 2020, 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) ("ASU 2020-06") to simplify accounting for certain financial instruments. ASU 2020-06 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. ASU 2020-06 amends the diluted earnings per share guidance, including the requirement to use the if-converted method for all convertible instruments. ASU 2020-06 is effective January 1, 2022 and should be applied on a full or modified retrospective basis. On February 16, 2021, the date of the Company's inception, the Company adopted the new standard.

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