Founder Shares
On September 2, 2020, the Sponsor subscribed to purchase an aggregate of shares (the “Founder Shares”) for a subscription price of $. On October 26, 2023, the Sponsor agreed to surrender an aggregate of shares of the Company’s common stock for no consideration, which were cancelled, resulting in the Sponsor holding an aggregate of Founder Shares. The subsequent cancellation is retrospectively reflected in the financial statements from day one.
The Company maintains the ownership of Founder Shares by the initial stockholders at % of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of common stock upon the consummation of the Initial Public Offering, not including the Private Placement Shares or the Representative Shares. Up to Founder Shares held by the initial stockholders are no longer subject to forfeiture due to the underwriters’ over-allotment option exercised in full at the Initial Public Offering.
The initial stockholders and the officers and directors have agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of the Founder Shares until the earlier of (i) six months after the date of the consummation of the Business Combination or (ii) the date on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, stock exchange or other similar transaction after its initial business combination that results in all of its public stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of common stock for cash, securities or other property.

During the quarterly period ended December 31, 2025 and the annual period ended September 30, 2025, the Sponsor incurred travel expenses amounting to $0 and $2,788, respectively, which are reimbursable by Su De Tang Global Corporation.

As of December 31, 2025 and September 30, 2025, the Company had due to Sponsor, non-interest bearing and due on demand in the amount of $2,788.
Subscription Agreements
From October 2023 through January 2024, the Company’s Sponsor entered into six subscription agreements to sell membership interests in the Sponsor to members of management, directors and director nominees. The membership interests represent the indirect equivalent of Founders Shares which equates to % of the Founders Shares issued and outstanding. The total purchase price paid for the membership interests was $. The Company modified the agreements in February 2024, with the intent to clarify that the Founder Shares are “earned upon the completion of a successful Business Combination” and the modified agreement is to be effective contemporaneously with the date and time of the initial subscription agreements. The sale of the membership interests to the Company’s management, directors and director’s nominees is in the scope of FASB ASC Topic 718, “Compensation-Stock Compensation” (“ASC 718”). Under ASC 718, stock-based compensation associated with equity-classified awards is measured at fair value upon the grant date.
On January 22, 2024, one of the subscription agreements representing an indirect equivalent of Founders Shares or % of the Founders Shares (with over-allotment) issued and outstanding was terminated and $ was paid to the subscriber as a result of the termination of the agreement.
On September 11, 2024, one of the subscription agreements representing an indirect equivalent of Founders Shares or % of the Founders Shares (with over-allotment) issued and outstanding was amended in which the Sponsor granted an additional Founder Shares bringing the total to Founder Shares or % of the Founders Shares (with over-allotment) issued and outstanding. The total purchase price paid for the membership interest was $.
The fair value of the shares granted through March 28, 2024, to the Company’s directors and director nominees was approximately $1,734,000 or approximately $ per share. The fair value of the additional shares granted on September 11, 2024, to the Company’s directors and director nominees was approximately $499,000 or approximately $ per share. The Founders Shares were granted subject to a performance condition (i.e., the occurrence of a Business Combination). Compensation expense related to the Founders Shares is recognized only when the performance condition is probable of occurrence under the applicable accounting literature in this circumstance. As of December 31, 2025, the Company determined that a Business Combination is not considered probable, and, therefore, no stock-based compensation expense has been recognized. Stock-based compensation would be recognized at the date a Business Combination is considered probable (i.e., upon consummation of a Business Combination) in an amount equal to the number of Founders Shares times the grant date fair value per share (unless subsequently modified) less the amount initially received for the purchase of the Founders Shares.
The Founder Shares issued to the directors and director nominees were valued using a Black-Scholes model. The following criteria presents the quantitative information regarding market assumptions used in the Founder Share valuations:
