Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Cash and Cash Equivalent

Cash and Cash Equivalent

Cash is comprised of cash balances. Cash is held at major financial institutions and is subject to credit risk to the extent that those balances exceed applicable Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insurance amounts of $250,000. From time to time, the Company has certain cash balances, including restricted cash, that may exceed insured limits. The Company utilizes large banking institutions that are reputable, therefore mitigating the risks.

Use of Estimates

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. The more significant accounting estimates included in these consolidated financial statements are the determination of the fair value of the warrant liabilities, earnout shares and sponsor earnout shares, preferred series C stock and excise tax payable. 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 consolidated 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 differ significantly from those estimates.

Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received for sale of an asset or paid for transfer of a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. GAAP establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). These tiers consist of:

	●	Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical instruments in active markets;

	●	Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable such as quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and

	●	Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions, such as valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.

In some circumstances, the inputs used to measure fair value might be categorized within different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In those instances, the fair value measurement is categorized in its entirety in the fair value hierarchy based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

Net (Loss) Income Per Common Share

Net (Loss) Income Per Common Share

Net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average common shares outstanding during the year as defined by FASB, ASC Topic 260, Earnings per Share. Basic earnings per common share (“EPS”) calculations are determined by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per common share calculations are determined by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares and dilutive common share equivalents outstanding. The Company has 26,534,773 dilutive shares of common stock derived from two convertible notes and the series C preferred stock as of December 31, 2024 and zero dilutive shares of common stock as of December 31, 2023.

The calculation of diluted net (loss) income does not consider the effect of the warrants underlying the Units sold in the Initial Public Offering and the private placement warrants to purchase an aggregate of 20,700,000 shares of Class A common stock and the earnout shares and sponsor earnout shares as defined in the business combination agreement an aggregate of 2,950,000 shares of Class A common stock in the calculation of diluted (loss) income per share, because their exercise is contingent upon future events and their inclusion would be anti-dilutive under the treasury stock method.

The following tables present a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator used to compute basic and diluted net (loss) income per share:

Notes Payable

Notes Payable

The Company issued various notes payable to related parties. These notes payable included original issue discounts and debt issuance costs.

Original issue discounts. The Company accounts for the original issue discounts in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) No. 835-30, Interest and Imputation of Interest, which requires the Company to record the discount as a contra-liability and amortize it over the term of the underlying note using the interest method.

Debt issuance costs. The Company accounts for debt issuance costs in accordance with ASC No. 470-20, Debt, which requires the Company to recognize a contra-liability for costs incurred with the issuance of debt instruments. These contra-liabilities are amortized over the term of the underlying note payable using the interest method.

Series C Preferred Stock

Series C Preferred Stock

During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company amended and restated its charter to include the designation of a Series C Preferred Stock. The Amended and Restated Charter authorizes the issuance of 8,500,000 shares of preferred stock, 7,500,000 shares of which have been designated as Series C Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series C Preferred Stock”), and 1,000,000 shares of which will be undesignated. Based on the characteristics and rights of the Series C Preferred Stock, the Company is reporting it as Mezzanine Equity (Temporary Equity) on its consolidated balance sheets. These shares were valued at the date of issuance using a Monte Carlo Simulation model. The Company determined that subsequent changes to the carrying value of the series C preferred shares will not be recognized until Redemption becomes probable of occurring. See Note 9 – Mezzanine Equity for further details.
