| Organization, Business Operation and Going Concern Consideration | Note 1 — Organization, Business Operation and Going Concern Consideration
ChampionsGate Acquisition Corporation (the “Company”) is a blank check company incorporated in the Cayman Islands on March 27, 2024 as an exempted company with limited liability. The Company was formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities (the “Business Combination”). The Company’s efforts to identify a prospective target business will not be limited to a particular industry or geographic location. The Company has elected December 31 as its fiscal year end.
As of December 31, 2025, the Company had not commenced any operations. For the period from March 27, 2024 (inception) through December 31, 2025, the Company’s efforts have been limited to organizational activities as well as activities related to the IPO (see Note 3). The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of a Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company will generate non-operating income in the form of dividend and/or interest income from the proceeds derived from the IPO and Private Placement (see Note 4).
The Company’s management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the IPO and the sale of the Private Placement Units (as defined below), although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be applied generally toward consummating a Business Combination. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to complete a Business Combination successfully.
The Company’s founder and sponsor is ST Sponsor Limited, a Cayman Islands exempted company (the “Sponsor”). The Company’s ability to commence operations is contingent upon obtaining adequate financial resources through the IPO and the Private Placement.
On May 29, 2025, the Company consummated IPO of 7,475,000 units (including 975,000 units issued upon the full exercise of the over-allotment option, the “Units”). Each Unit consists of one Class A ordinary share (the “Class A ordinary share”), $0.0001 par value per share, and one right (“Right”) to receive of one-eighth of one Class A ordinary share upon the completion of the initial Business Combination of the Company. The Units were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per Unit, generating total gross proceeds of $74,750,000.
Simultaneously with the consummation (the “closing”) of the IPO and the sale of the Units, the Company consummated the Private Placement of 230,000 units (the “Private Placement Units”) to ST Sponsor Investment LLC (the “Sponsor HoldCo”), a Cayman Islands limited liability company which has one member, ST Sponsor Limited, the Company’s Sponsor, at a price of $10.00 per Private Placement Unit, generating total proceeds of $2,300,000, which is described in Note 4. Each Private Placement Unit consists of one Class A ordinary share, and one Right to receive of one-eighth of one Class A ordinary share upon the completion of the initial Business Combination.
Transaction costs amounted to $3,259,220, consisting of $747,500 of underwriting commissions which was paid in cash at the closing date of the IPO, $1,495,000 of deferred underwriting commissions, $293,020 of the Representative Shares (discussed below), and $723,700 of other offering costs. At the IPO closing date, cash of $464,339 was held outside of the trust account (as defined below) and is available for the payment of accrued offering costs and for working capital purposes.
In conjunction with the IPO, the Company issued to the underwriter 112,125 Class A ordinary shares for no consideration (the “Representative Shares”). The fair value of the Representative Shares accounted for as compensation under Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 718, “Compensation – Stock Compensation” (“ASC 718”) is included in the offering costs. The estimated fair value of the Representative Shares as of the IPO date totaled $293,020.
The Company’s initial Business Combination must occur with one or more target businesses that together have an aggregate fair market value of at least 80% of the value of the trust account (excluding any deferred underwriters’ fees and taxes payable on the income earned on the trust account) at the time of the agreement to enter into the initial Business Combination. The Company will complete its initial Business Combination only if the post-transaction company in which its public shareholders own shares will own or acquire 50% or more of the outstanding voting securities of the target or otherwise acquires a controlling interest in the target sufficient for it not to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to complete a Business Combination successfully.
Upon the closing of the IPO, management has agreed that at least $10.05 per Unit sold in the IPO will be held into a U.S.-based trust account (“trust account”). The funds held in the trust account will be invested only in U.S. government treasury bills with a maturity of 185 days or less, or in money market funds meeting the applicable conditions of Rule 2a-7 promulgated under the Investment Company Act which invest solely in direct U.S. government treasury. Except with respect to divided and/or interest earned on the funds held in the trust account that may be released to the Company to pay the Company’s tax obligation, if any, the proceeds from the IPO and the sale of the Private Placement Units that are deposited and held in the trust account will not be released from the trust account until the earliest to occur of (i) the completion of the Company’s initial Business Combination, (ii) the redemption of any public shares properly tendered in connection with a shareholder vote to amend the company’s second amended and restated memorandum and articles of association to (A) modify the substance or timing of obligation to redeem 100% of the Company’s public shares if the Company does not complete the Company’s initial Business Combination within 18 months from the closing of the IPO. (The Company has eighteen (18) months after the Closing Date to complete its initial Business Combination unless the Company and the Sponsor and/or designees elect to extend this initial time period pursuant to the following scenarios: (x) in the event that the Company executes a definitive agreement for an initial Business Combination within 18 months after the Closing Date, it will automatically receive an additional three months to consummate the initial Business Combination or (y) the Company and the Sponsor and/or designees may extend that initial time period two times by an additional three months each time up to for a total period of up to 24 months from the Closing Date, or 27 months from the closing of the IPO if the condition in scenario (x) is met) (the “Combination Deadline”) provided that the Company’s sponsor and/or designees must deposit (the “extension loans”) into the trust account for each three months extension, $747,500, up to an aggregate of $1,495,000, on or prior to the date of the applicable deadline. or (B) with respect to any other provision relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-business combination activity and (iii) the redemption of all of public shares if the company are unable to complete their initial Business Combination before the Combination Deadline, subject to applicable law. In no other circumstances will a public shareholder have any right or interest of any kind to or in the trust account. The proceeds deposited in the trust account could become subject to the claims of the Company’s creditors, if any, which could have priority over the claims of the public shareholders.
The Company will provide its public shareholders with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their public shares upon the completion of the Business Combination either (i) in connection with a shareholder meeting called to approve the Business Combination or (ii) by means of a tender offer.
The ordinary shares subject to redemption will be accredited to the redemption value and classified as temporary equity upon the completion of the IPO, in accordance with ASC Topic 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” The Company has determined not to consummate any Business Combination unless the Company has net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001 upon such consummation in order to avoid being subject to Rule 419 promulgated under the Securities Act.
The Company will have until the Combination Deadline to complete its initial Business Combination. The Company 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 and not previously released to the Company to pay the Company’s franchise and income taxes, if any (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses) divided by the number of the then-issued and outstanding public shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public shareholders’ rights as shareholders (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 its remaining shareholders and its board of directors, liquidate and dissolve, subject in each case to the Company’s obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. The Sponsor HoldCo and each member of management team have entered into an agreement with the Company, pursuant to which they have agreed to waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the trust account with respect to any insider shares (as defined in Note 5) they hold if the Company fails to consummate an initial Business Combination before the Combination Deadline.
The Sponsor has agreed that it will be liable to the Company if and to the extent any claims by a third party for services rendered or products sold to the Company, or a prospective target business with which the Company has entered into a written letter of intent, confidentiality or similar agreement or Business Combination agreement, reduce the amount of funds in the trust account to below the lesser of (i) $10.05 per public share and (ii) the actual amount per public share held in the trust account as of the date of the liquidation of the trust account, if less than $10.05 per share due to reductions in the value of the trust assets, less taxes payable, provided that such liability will not apply to any claims by a third party or prospective target business who executed a waiver of any and all rights to the monies held in the trust account (whether or not such waiver is enforceable) nor will it apply to any claims under the Company’s indemnity of the underwriters of this IPO against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act. However, the Company has not asked the Sponsor to reserve for such indemnification obligations, nor have the Company independently verified whether the Company’s Sponsor has sufficient funds to satisfy its indemnity obligations and believe that the Sponsor’s only assets are securities of the company. Therefore, it cannot be assured that that the Sponsor would be able to satisfy those obligations. None of the officers or directors will indemnify the Company for claims by third parties including, without limitation, claims by vendors and prospective target businesses.
Going Concern Consideration
As of December 31, 2025, the Company had a working capital deficit of $77,569. The Company expects to incur significant costs in pursuit of its acquisition plans. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued. Management’s plans to address this need for capital through the Working Capital Loans, as defined below (see Note 5). In addition, if the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination before the Combination Deadline, the Company’s board of directors would proceed to commence a voluntary liquidation and thereby a formal dissolution of the Company. There is no assurance that the Company’s plans to raise capital or to consummate a Business Combination will be successful or successful within the required period. As a result, management has determined that such additional condition also raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the Company’s inability to consummate the Business Combination to continue as a going concern.
Risks and Uncertainties
As a result of the military action commenced in February 2022 by the Russian Federation and Belarus in the country of Ukraine and related economic sanctions, the Company’s ability to consummate a Business Combination, or the operations of a target business with which the Company ultimately consummates a Business Combination, may be materially and adversely affected. In addition, the Company’s ability to consummate a transaction may be dependent on the ability to raise equity and debt financing which may be impacted by these events, including as a result of increased market volatility, or decreased market liquidity in third-party financing being unavailable on terms acceptable to the Company or at all. The impact of this action and related sanctions on the world economy and the specific impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations and/or ability to consummate a Business Combination are not yet determinable. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. |
