Note 4 — Initial Public Offering

On February 15, 2022, the Company consummated its IPO of 14,375,000 Units, including 1,875,000 Units sold pursuant to the full exercise of the underwriters’ option to purchase additional units to cover over-allotments, at a purchase price of $10.00 per Unit. Each Unit consists of one share of Class A common stock and one redeemable Public Warrant. Each whole Public Warrant will entitle the holder to purchase one share of Class A common stock at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment (see Note 6).

Following the closing of the IPO on February 15, 2022, $146,625,000 ($10.20 per Unit) from the net proceeds of the sale of the Units in the IPO and the sale of the Private Placement Units was placed in a Trust Account and will be invested only in U.S. government securities with a maturity of 185 days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act which invest only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations.

All of the 14,375,000 shares of Class A 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 the Company’s liquidation, if there is a stockholder vote or tender offer in connection with the Business Combination and in connection with certain amendments to the Company’s certificate of incorporation. In accordance with SEC guidance on redeemable equity instruments, which has been codified in ASC Topic 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.

Accordingly, at December 31, 2024 and 2023, 63,241 and 153,295 shares of common stock subject to possible redemption, respectively, are presented at redemption value of $11.74 and $11.45 per share, as temporary equity, outside of the stockholders’ deficit section of the Company’s consolidated balance sheets, respectively.

The shares of Class A common stock are accounted for in accordance with the guidance in ASC Topic 480-10-S99. If it is probable that the equity instrument will become redeemable, the Company has the option to either accrete changes in the redemption value over the period from the date of issuance (or from the date that it becomes probable that the instrument will become redeemable, if later) to the earliest redemption date of the instrument or to recognize changes in the redemption value immediately as they occur and adjust the carrying amount of the instrument to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period.

The Company recognizes changes in redemption value immediately as they occur. Immediately upon the closing of the IPO, the Company recognized the accretion from initial book value to redemption amount value. The change in the carrying value of redeemable common stock resulted in charges against additional paid-in capital and accumulated deficit.

As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the common stock subject to possible redemption reflected on the consolidated balance sheets is reconciled in the following table:
