| Significant Accounting Policies | Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Presentation The Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) as determined by the FASB ASC and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all of the disclosures required by U.S. GAAP for annual consolidated financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company as of and for the year ended December 31, 2025 (the “Annual Financial Statements”). In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments, necessary to fairly present its financial position as of June 30, 2026, its results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, its cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, and its changes in stockholders’ equity (deficit) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025. Results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2026 or any future period. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2025 was derived from the Annual Financial Statements but does not contain all of the footnote disclosures from the Annual Financial Statements. Emerging Growth Company Status After the closing of the Business Combination, the Company has elected to be an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”), and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements with another public company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used. The Company will cease to be an emerging growth company upon the earliest of (1) December 31, 2026; (2) the first fiscal year after annual gross revenues are $1.235 billion or more; (3) the date on which the Company has, during the previous three-year period, issued more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt securities; or (4) the date on which the Company is deemed to be a “large accelerated filer” under the Exchange Act. Smaller Reporting Company The Company is a “smaller reporting company” meaning that the market value of its stock held by non-affiliates is less than $700 million as of the most recently completed second fiscal quarter and the annual revenue was less than $100 million during the most recently completed fiscal year. The Company may continue to be a smaller reporting company if either (i) the market value of its stock held by nonaffiliates is less than $250 million or (ii) annual revenue was less than $100 million during the most recently completed fiscal year and the market value of its stock held by non-affiliates is less than $700 million as of the most recently completed second fiscal quarter. As a smaller reporting company, the Company is permitted and intends to rely on exemptions from certain disclosure requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not smaller reporting companies. Use of Estimates The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the Company’s 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 unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results may differ materially and adversely from these estimates. The Company is not aware of any significant estimates that required management to exercise significant judgment with the exception of the Company’s warrant liability and research and development costs. If the underlying estimates and assumptions upon which the estimates are based change in the future, actual amounts may differ from those included in the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Segments The Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), the Chief Executive Officer, manages the Company’s business activities as a operating and reportable segment. Accordingly, the Company’s CODM uses net income/loss to measure the Company’s single segment’s performance and allocate resources. Further, the CODM reviews and utilizes functional expenses (general and administrative and research and development) to manage the Company’s operations. The Company’s general and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 included $73,699 and $37,500, respectively, of compensation expenses related to the compensation agreements the Company has with its executive team. The Company’s general and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 included $134,199 and $75,000, respectively, of compensation expenses related to the compensation agreement the Company has with its executive team. The remaining general and administrative expenses are related to legal and accounting-related expenses for contractors. The Company’s research and development expenses did not include any compensation-related expenses. Other segment items included in net (loss) income are interest expense, related parties and interest income which are reflected in the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. Cash Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist of cash accounts in a financial institution which can exceed government insured limits. The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less at the date of purchase to be cash equivalents. The Company did not have any cash equivalents as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025. Fair Value of Financial Instruments The Company’s financial assets and liabilities are accounted for in accordance with FASB ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, which defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The fair value hierarchy requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs when measuring fair value and classifies those inputs into three levels: Level 1 — Observable inputs, such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 — Inputs other than Level 1 inputs that are either directly or indirectly observable, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the instrument’s anticipated life. Level 3 — Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions. To the extent the valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgement. Accordingly, the degree of judgement exercised by management in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized as Level 3. A financial instrument’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The fair value of the warrant liability reported in the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets represent a Level 3 instrument (see Note 8). The carrying values reported in the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets for prepaid expenses and other current assets, accounts payable and accrued expenses, accrued interest with related parties, short-term debt with related parties, due to related parties, settlement payable and its deferred underwriting fee payable are reasonable estimates of their fair values due to the short-term nature of these items. Warrants The Company accounts for warrants as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the warrant’s specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in ASC 480, Distinguishing liabilities from equity (“ASC 480”), and ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”). The assessment considers whether the warrants are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and whether the warrants meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the warrants are indexed to the Company’s own common shares and whether the warrant holders could potentially require “net cash settlement” in a circumstance outside of the Company’s control, among other conditions for equity classification. This assessment, which requires the use of professional judgment, is conducted at the time of warrant issuance, modification, and as of each subsequent quarterly period end date while the warrants are outstanding. As of June 30, 2026, 20,688,000 Inducement Warrants, 9,625,500 Common Stock Warrants, 690,650 Placement Agent Warrants and 5,094,623 Public Warrants were accounted for as equity-classified instruments and 835,555 private placement warrants were accounted for as liability-classified instruments. For issued or modified warrants that meet all of the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded as a component of additional paid-in capital at the time of issuance. For issued or modified warrants that do not meet all the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded at their initial fair value on the date of issuance, and each balance sheet date thereafter. Changes in the estimated fair value of the liability-classified warrants are recognized as a non-cash gain or loss on the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. The Company assesses the classification of its warrants at each reporting date to determine whether a change in classification between equity and liability is required. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company had an unrealized gain on the change in fair value of the warrant liabilities of $29,245 and $33,423, respectively. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company had an unrealized gain on the change in fair value of the warrant liabilities of $116,894. Net (Loss) Income per Share of Common Stock The Company complies with accounting and disclosure requirements of ASC Topic 260, Earnings Per Share. The Company has one class of common stock. Basic net (loss) income per share is computed by dividing the net (loss) income by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period, without consideration for potentially dilutive securities if their effect is antidilutive. Diluted net (loss) income per share is computed by dividing the net (loss) income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock and dilutive common stock equivalents outstanding for the period determined by using the treasury stock method. Dilutive common stock equivalents consisted of 36,934,328 warrants, comprising of 20,688,000 Inducement Warrants, 9,625,500 Common Stock Warrants, 690,650 Placement Agent Warrants, 5,094,623 Public Warrants and 835,555 private placement warrants. For all periods presented, there is no difference in the number of shares used to calculated basic and diluted shares outstanding as inclusion of the potentially dilutive securities would be antidilutive given that their inclusion would reduce the net (loss) income per share during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025. Research and Development Expenses Research and development expenses consist of costs incurred by InnoBation Bio Co, Ltd. (“Innobation”) in accordance with the license agreement with Innobation and are recorded as research and development expenses as incurred (see Note 3). Leases The Company recognizes its leases in accordance with ASC Topic 842, Leases (“ASC 842”). Under ASC 842, lessees are required to recognize all qualified operating leases at the commencement date including a lease liability, which is a lessee’s obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, measured on a discounted basis; and a right-of-use (“ROU”) asset, which is an asset that represents the lessee’s right to use, or control the use of, a specified asset for the lease term. The initial lease liability is equal to the future fixed minimum lease payments discounted using the Company’s incremental borrowing rate, on a secured basis. The lease term includes option renewal periods and early termination payments when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise those rights. The initial measurement of the ROU asset is equal to the initial lease liability plus any initial direct costs and prepayments, less any lease incentives. The Company has leased office space for a fixed period of 10 months. In accordance with ASC 842, a short-term lease is defined as a lease that, at the commencement date, has a lease term of 12 months or less and does not include an option to purchase the underlying asset that the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise. The short-term lease election can only be made at the commencement date. A lessee that makes this accounting policy election does not recognize a lease liability or right-of-use asset on its balance sheets. Instead, the lessee recognizes lease payments on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Income Taxes The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”). ASC 740 requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for both the expected impact of differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities and for the expected future tax benefit to be derived from tax loss and tax credit carryforwards. ASC 740 additionally requires a valuation allowance to be established when it is more likely than not that all or a portion of deferred tax assets will not be realized. ASC 740 also clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. There were no tax accruals relating to uncertain tax positions. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax positions as income tax expense. There were no unrecognized tax positions, and no amounts accrued for interest and penalties as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviation from its position. The Company has identified the United States as its only “major” tax jurisdiction. The Company is subject to income tax examinations by major taxing authorities since inception. These examinations may include questioning the timing and amount of deductions, the nexus of income among various tax jurisdictions and compliance with federal and state tax laws. No unrecognized tax benefits were identified as of June 30, 2026 or December 31, 2025. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements – Not Yet Adopted On November 4, 2024, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2024-03, Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income-Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (“ASU 2024-03”), to improve financial reporting by requiring that public business entities disclose additional information about specific expense categories in the notes to financial statements at interim and annual reporting periods. The amendments in this ASU do not change or remove current expense disclosure requirements; however, the amendments affect where such information appears in the notes to financial statements because entities are required to include certain current disclosures in the same tabular format disclosure as the other disaggregation requirements in the amendments. This ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact that the adoption of this standard will have on its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. |
