(the “Company”) is a blank check company incorporated as a Cayman Islands exempted company on December 18, 2020. The Company was incorporated for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses (the “initial business combination”). </p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> </p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;">As of June 30, 2025, the Company had not yet commenced operations. All activity for the period from December 18, 2020 (inception) through June 30, 2025 relates to the Company’s formation and the initial public offering (the “Initial Public Offering”), which is described below, and after the Initial Public Offering, the search for an initial business combination. The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of its initial business combination, at the earliest. The Company generates non-operating income in the form of interest income from the proceeds derived from the Initial Public Offering.</p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> </p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> The Company’s sponsor is Slam Sponsor, LLC, a Cayman Islands limited liability company (the “Sponsor”). The registration statement for the Company’s Initial Public Offering was declared effective on February 22, 2021. On February 25, 2021, the Company consummated its Initial Public Offering of 57,500,000 units (the “Units” and, with respect to the Class A ordinary shares included in the Units being offered “the Public Shares”), including 7,500,000 additional Units to cover over-allotments (the “Over-Allotment Units”), at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $575.0 million, and incurring offering costs of approximately $32.5 million, of which approximately $20.1 million was for deferred underwriting commissions (see Note 5). </p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> </p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the private placement (the “Private Placement”) of 11,333,333 warrants (each, a “Private Placement Warrant” and collectively, the “Private Placement Warrants”), at a price of $1.50 per Private Placement Warrant with the Sponsor, generating gross proceeds of $17.0 million (see Note 4). </p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> </p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> Upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering and the Private Placement, $575.0 million ($10.00 per Unit) of the net proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and certain of the proceeds of the Private Placement were placed in a trust account (the “Trust Account”) with Continental Stock Transfer &amp; Trust Company acting as trustee and will be invested in United States “government securities” within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), having a maturity of 185 days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 promulgated under the Investment Company Act which invest only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations, as determined by the Company, until the earlier of (i) the completion of an initial business combination and (ii) the distribution of the Trust Account as described below. On February 17, 2023, the Company liquidated the U.S. government treasury obligations or money market funds held in the Trust Account. The funds in the Trust Account will be maintained in cash in an interest-bearing demand deposit account at a bank until the earlier of consummation of an initial business combination and liquidation. Interest on such deposit account is currently approximately 3.5 - 4.0% per annum, but such deposit account carries a variable rate, and the Company cannot provide any assurance that such rate will not decrease or increase significantly. </p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> </p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> The Company’s management team (“Management”) has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of its Initial Public Offering and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be applied generally toward consummating an initial business combination. The Company’s initial business combination must be with one or more operating businesses or assets with a fair market value equal to at least 80% of the net assets held in the Trust Account (excluding the deferred underwriting commissions and taxes payable on the income earned on the Trust Account) at the time the Company signs a definitive agreement in connection with the initial business combination. However, the Company will only complete an initial business combination if the post-business combination company owns or acquires 50% or more of the outstanding voting securities of the target business or otherwise acquires a controlling interest in the target business sufficient for it not to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act. </p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> </p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> The Company will provide its holders of the Public Shares (the “Public Shareholders”) with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares upon the completion of an initial business combination either (i) in connection with a general meeting called to approve the initial business combination or (ii) without a shareholder vote by means of a tender offer. The decision as to whether the Company will seek shareholder approval of an initial business combination or conduct a tender offer will be made by the Company. The Public Shareholders will be entitled to redeem their Public Shares for a pro rata portion of the amount then in the Trust Account (initially anticipated to be $10.00 per share, plus any pro rata interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay its tax obligations). The per-share amount to be distributed to Public Shareholders who redeem their Public Shares will not be reduced by the deferred underwriting commissions the Company will pay to the underwriters (as discussed in Note 5). These Public Shares will be recorded at a redemption value and classified as temporary equity upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering, in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” In such case, the Company will proceed with an initial business combination if a majority of the shares voted are voted in favor of the initial business combination. If a shareholder vote is not required by applicable law or stock exchange listing requirements and the Company does not decide to hold a shareholder vote for business or other reasons, the Company will, pursuant to the amended and restated memorandum and articles of association which were adopted by the Company upon the consummation of the Initial Public Offering (the “Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association”), conduct the redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), and file tender offer documents with the SEC prior to completing an initial business combination. If, however, shareholder approval of the transactions is required by applicable law or stock exchange listing requirements, or the Company decides to obtain shareholder approval for business or other reasons, the Company will offer to redeem shares in conjunction with a proxy solicitation pursuant to the proxy rules and not pursuant to the tender offer rules. Additionally, each public shareholder may elect to redeem their Public Shares irrespective of whether they vote for or against the proposed transaction or whether they were a public shareholder on the record date for the general meeting held to approve the proposed transaction. If the Company seeks shareholder approval in connection with an initial business combination, the holders of the Founder Shares prior to the Initial Public Offering (the “Initial Shareholders”) agreed to vote their Founder Shares (as defined in Note 4) and any Public Shares purchased during or after the Initial Public Offering in favor of an initial business combination. In addition, the Initial Shareholders agreed to waive their redemption rights with respect to their Founder Shares and Public Shares in connection with the completion of an initial business combination. In addition, the Company agreed not to enter into a definitive agreement regarding an initial business combination without the prior consent of the Sponsor. </p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> </p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association provides that a public shareholder, together with any affiliate of such shareholder or any other person with whom such shareholder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined under Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), will be restricted from redeeming its shares with respect to more than an aggregate of 15% or more of the Class A ordinary shares sold in the Initial Public Offering, without the prior consent of the Company. </p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> </p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> The Company’s Sponsor, officers, directors and special advisor agreed not to propose an amendment to the Company’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association (A) to modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to allow the redemption of its Public Shares in connection with an initial business combination or to redeem 100% of its Public Shares if the Company does not complete an initial business combination within the Combination Period (as defined below) or (B) with respect to any other provisions relating to shareholders’ rights, unless the Company provides the Public Shareholders with the opportunity to redeem their Class A ordinary shares in conjunction with any such amendment. </p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> </p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;">If the Company is unable to complete an initial business combination by June 25, 2025 (the “Combination Period”), 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, divided by the number of 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 the remaining shareholders and the Board, liquidate and dissolve, subject, in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii), to the Company’s obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and in all cases subject to the other requirements of applicable law.</p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> </p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> On February 21, 2023, the Company held an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders (the “Extension Meeting”) to (i) amend the Company’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association (the “Articles Amendment”) to extend the date by which the Company has to consummate an initial business combination from February 25, 2023 to May 25, 2023 (such proposal, the “Extension Amendment Proposal”) and (ii) remove the limitation that the Company may not redeem public shares to the extent that such redemption would result in the Company having net tangible assets (as determined in accordance with Rule 3a51-1(g)(1) the Exchange Act of less than $5,000,001 (the “Redemption Limitation Amendment Proposal”).

However, if the Initial Shareholders should acquire Public Shares in or after the Initial Public Offering, they will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to such Public Shares if the Company fails to complete an initial business combination within the Combination Period. The underwriters agreed to waive their rights to their deferred underwriting commission (see Note 5) held in the Trust Account in the event the Company does not complete an initial business combination within the Combination Period, and in such event, such amounts will be included with the funds held in the Trust Account that will be available to fund the redemption of the Company’s Public Shares.

In the event that an executed waiver is deemed to be unenforceable against a third party, the Sponsor will not be responsible to the extent of any liability for such third-party claims. The Company will seek to reduce the possibility that the Sponsor will have to indemnify the Trust Account due to claims of creditors by endeavoring to have vendors, service providers (except the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm), prospective target businesses or other entities with which the Company does business, execute agreements with the Company waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to monies held in the Trust Account.

The JOBS Act provides that an emerging growth 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 financial statements with another public company that is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company that has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.</p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: bold;"><i> </i></span></p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: bold;"><i>Use of Estimates</i></span></p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> </p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;">The preparation of condensed 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 financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Making estimates requires Management to exercise significant judgment. 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 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.

The Company evaluates all of its financial instruments, including issued stock purchase warrants, to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives, pursuant to FASB ASC Topic 480 and FASB ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging.” The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is re-assessed at the end of each reporting period.</p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> </p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"></p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> </p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;">The Public Warrants and the Private Placement Warrants are recognized as derivative liabilities in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 815. Accordingly, the Company recognizes the warrant instruments as liabilities at fair value and adjusts the instruments to fair value at each reporting period. The liabilities are subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet date until exercised, and any change in fair value is recognized in the Company’s statements of operations. The determination of the fair value of the warrant liability may be subject to change as more current information becomes available, and accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly. The estimated fair value of the Public Warrants, at issuance, was measured at fair value using a Black-Scholes option pricing model and is subsequently valued using the observable listed prices for such warrants. As the transfer of Private Placement Warrants to anyone who is not a permitted transferee would result in the Private Placement Warrants having substantially the same terms as the Public Warrants, the Company determined that the fair value of each Private Placement Warrant is equivalent to that of each Public Warrant. The fair value of the Warrants as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, is based on observable listed prices for such warrants.</p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> </p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: bold;"><i>Backstop Agreement</i></span></p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> </p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> The Company evaluated the backstop agreement under FASB ASC 815 in which it was concluded that the settlement terms listed within the Backstop Agreement are not considered an input into a fixed-for-fixed contract as required under step 2 of FASB ASC 815-40-15 because they are neither specifically mentioned in FASB ASC 815-40-15 nor is it an input into a fixed-for-fixed contract. As a result, the Backstop Agreement is required to be classified as a liability and measured at fair value with subsequent changes in fair value recorded in earnings. Accordingly, the Company recognized the Backstop Agreement as a liability at its fair value and will adjust the instrument to its fair value at each reporting period. The liability will be subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet date until exercised. The fair value of the Backstop Agreement assumes Antara Capital Master Fund LP, a Cayman Islands exempted limited partnership (“Antara”) will fund the maximum number of shares and considers the probability of the backstop commitment consisting only of an amount equal to the difference between (x) the Minimum Cash Condition and (y) the sum of the Private Placement Net Financing Amount (as defined in the Backstop Agreement) and the Trust Amount (as defined in the Backstop Agreement), in no event will the backstop commitment exceed $25,000,000, and Antara will not be obligated to make the backstop commitment if the Minimum Cash Condition is satisfied (see Note 5). </p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: bold;"><i> </i></span></p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: bold;"><i>Offering Costs Associated with the Initial Public Offering</i></span></p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> </p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;">Offering costs consisted of legal, accounting, underwriting fees and other costs incurred through the Initial Public Offering that were directly related to the Initial Public Offering.

Offering costs associated with derivative warrant liabilities were expensed as incurred and presented as non-operating expenses in the statements of operations. Offering costs associated with the Class A ordinary shares issued were charged against the carrying value of the Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering.

Conditionally redeemable Class A ordinary shares (including Class A ordinary shares that feature redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the Company’s control) are classified as temporary equity. At all other times, Class A ordinary shares are classified as shareholders’ equity (deficit). The Company’s Class A ordinary shares feature certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to the occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, 114,053 and 2,000,000 Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption, respectively, are presented at redemption value as temporary equity, outside of the shareholders’ deficit section of the Company’s balance sheets.</span> </p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman, Times, Serif; font-size: 10pt;"> </span></p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-family: Times New Roman, Times, Serif; font-size: 10pt;">At the June 2025 Special Meeting, stockholders redeemed 1,885,947 shares of the Company’s common stock for $22,485,938. As of June 30, 2025 the redeeming stockholders were not paid for the redeeming shares. The Company reports this amount as due to redeeming shareholders, a non-current liability on the condensed balance sheet, as the settlement of this liability does not require the use of current assets to settle the liability.</span> </p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman, Times, Serif; font-size: 10pt;"> </span></p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman, Times, Serif; font-size: 10pt;">The Company recognizes changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and adjusts the carrying value of the Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. This method would view the end of the reporting period as if it were also the redemption date for the security. Effective with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company recognized the accretion from initial book value to redemption amount, which resulted in charges against additional paid-in capital (to the extent available) and accumulated deficit.</span></p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman, Times, Serif; font-size: 10pt;"> </span></p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman, Times, Serif; font-size: 10pt;"><span style="font-weight: bold;"><i>Income Taxes</i></span></span></p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman, Times, Serif; font-size: 10pt;"> </span></p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-family: Times New Roman, Times, Serif; font-size: 10pt;">The Company complies with the accounting and reporting requirements of FASB ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes.” FASB ASC Topic 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions 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. Management determined that the Cayman Islands is the Company’s only major tax jurisdiction.

Income and losses are shared pro rata between the two classes of shares. This presentation assumes an initial business combination as the most likely outcome. Net loss per ordinary share is calculated by dividing the net income by the weighted average shares of ordinary shares outstanding for the respective period.</span></p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman, Times, Serif; font-size: 10pt;"> </span></p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-family: Times New Roman, Times, Serif; font-size: 10pt;">The calculation of diluted net loss does not consider the effect of the warrants underlying the Units sold in the Initial Public Offering (including the consummation of the over-allotment) and the Private Placement Warrants to purchase an aggregate of 25,708,333 Class A ordinary shares in the calculation of diluted loss per share, because their exercise is contingent upon future events and their inclusion would be anti-dilutive under the treasury stock method. As a result, diluted net loss per share is the same as basic net loss per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024. Accretion associated with the redeemable Class A ordinary shares is excluded from earnings per share as the redemption value approximates fair value.</span> </p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif;

The JOBS Act provides that an emerging growth 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 financial statements with another public company that is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company that has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.</p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: bold;"><i>Use of Estimates</i></span></p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> </p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;">The preparation of condensed 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 financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Making estimates requires Management to exercise significant judgment. 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 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.

The Company evaluates all of its financial instruments, including issued stock purchase warrants, to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives, pursuant to FASB ASC Topic 480 and FASB ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging.” The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is re-assessed at the end of each reporting period.</p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> </p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> </p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;">The Public Warrants and the Private Placement Warrants are recognized as derivative liabilities in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 815. Accordingly, the Company recognizes the warrant instruments as liabilities at fair value and adjusts the instruments to fair value at each reporting period. The liabilities are subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet date until exercised, and any change in fair value is recognized in the Company’s statements of operations. The determination of the fair value of the warrant liability may be subject to change as more current information becomes available, and accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly. The estimated fair value of the Public Warrants, at issuance, was measured at fair value using a Black-Scholes option pricing model and is subsequently valued using the observable listed prices for such warrants. As the transfer of Private Placement Warrants to anyone who is not a permitted transferee would result in the Private Placement Warrants having substantially the same terms as the Public Warrants, the Company determined that the fair value of each Private Placement Warrant is equivalent to that of each Public Warrant. The fair value of the Warrants as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, is based on observable listed prices for such warrants.</p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: bold;"><i>Backstop Agreement</i></span></p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> </p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> The Company evaluated the backstop agreement under FASB ASC 815 in which it was concluded that the settlement terms listed within the Backstop Agreement are not considered an input into a fixed-for-fixed contract as required under step 2 of FASB ASC 815-40-15 because they are neither specifically mentioned in FASB ASC 815-40-15 nor is it an input into a fixed-for-fixed contract. As a result, the Backstop Agreement is required to be classified as a liability and measured at fair value with subsequent changes in fair value recorded in earnings. Accordingly, the Company recognized the Backstop Agreement as a liability at its fair value and will adjust the instrument to its fair value at each reporting period. The liability will be subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet date until exercised. The fair value of the Backstop Agreement assumes Antara Capital Master Fund LP, a Cayman Islands exempted limited partnership (“Antara”) will fund the maximum number of shares and considers the probability of the backstop commitment consisting only of an amount equal to the difference between (x) the Minimum Cash Condition and (y) the sum of the Private Placement Net Financing Amount (as defined in the Backstop Agreement) and the Trust Amount (as defined in the Backstop Agreement), in no event will the backstop commitment exceed $25,000,000, and Antara will not be obligated to make the backstop commitment if the Minimum Cash Condition is satisfied (see Note 5). </p> 25000000 <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: bold;"><i>Offering Costs Associated with the Initial Public Offering</i></span></p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> </p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;">Offering costs consisted of legal, accounting, underwriting fees and other costs incurred through the Initial Public Offering that were directly related to the Initial Public Offering.

Offering costs associated with derivative warrant liabilities were expensed as incurred and presented as non-operating expenses in the statements of operations. Offering costs associated with the Class A ordinary shares issued were charged against the carrying value of the Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering.

Conditionally redeemable Class A ordinary shares (including Class A ordinary shares that feature redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the Company’s control) are classified as temporary equity. At all other times, Class A ordinary shares are classified as shareholders’ equity (deficit). The Company’s Class A ordinary shares feature certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to the occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, 114,053 and 2,000,000 Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption, respectively, are presented at redemption value as temporary equity, outside of the shareholders’ deficit section of the Company’s balance sheets.</span> </p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman, Times, Serif; font-size: 10pt;"> </span></p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-family: Times New Roman, Times, Serif; font-size: 10pt;">At the June 2025 Special Meeting, stockholders redeemed 1,885,947 shares of the Company’s common stock for $22,485,938. As of June 30, 2025 the redeeming stockholders were not paid for the redeeming shares.

This method would view the end of the reporting period as if it were also the redemption date for the security. Effective with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company recognized the accretion from initial book value to redemption amount, which resulted in charges against additional paid-in capital (to the extent available) and accumulated deficit.</span></p> 114053 2000000 1885947 22485938 <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman, Times, Serif; font-size: 10pt;"><span style="font-weight: bold;"><i>Income Taxes</i></span></span></p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman, Times, Serif; font-size: 10pt;"> </span></p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-family: Times New Roman, Times, Serif; font-size: 10pt;">The Company complies with the accounting and reporting requirements of FASB ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes.” FASB ASC Topic 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return.

As a result, diluted net loss per share is the same as basic net loss per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024.

Under ASC 718, share-based compensation associated with equity-classified awards is measured at fair value upon the grant date. The Founder Shares were effectively transferred subject to a performance condition (i.e., the occurrence of an initial business combination). Compensation expense related to the Founder Shares is recognized only when the performance condition is probable of occurrence under the applicable accounting literature in this circumstance. An initial business combination is not probable until it is completed. Share-based compensation would be recognized at the date an initial business combination is considered probable in an amount equal to the number of Founder Shares times the grant date fair value per share (unless subsequently modified) less the price initially received for the purchase of the Founder Shares. As of June 30, 2025, the Company determined that an initial business combination is not considered probable, and, therefore, no share-based compensation expense has been recognized.</span></p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman, Times, Serif; font-size: 10pt;"><span style="font-weight: bold;"><i> </i></span></span></p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman, Times, Serif; font-size: 10pt;"><span style="font-weight: bold;"><i>Private Placement Warrants</i></span></span></p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman, Times, Serif; font-size: 10pt;"> </span></p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-family: Times New Roman, Times, Serif; font-size: 10pt;">Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the Private Placement of 11,333,333 Private Placement Warrants, at a price of $1.50 per Private Placement Warrant with the Sponsor, generating gross proceeds of $17.0 million.</span> </p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman, Times, Serif; font-size: 10pt;"> </span></p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-family: Times New Roman, Times, Serif; font-size: 10pt;">Each whole Private Placement Warrant is exercisable for one whole Class A ordinary share at a price of $11.50 per share.

Notwithstanding the above, if the Class A ordinary shares are at the time of any exercise of a warrant not listed on a national securities exchange such that they satisfy the definition of a “covered security” under Section 18(b)(1) of the Securities Act, the Company may, at its option, require holders of Public Warrants who exercise their warrants to do so on a “cashless basis” and, in the event the Company so elects, the Company will not be required to file or maintain in effect a registration statement, and in the event the Company does not so elect, it will use commercially reasonable efforts to register or qualify the shares under applicable blue sky laws to the extent an exemption is not available.</span> </p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman, Times, Serif; font-size: 10pt;"></span></p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman, Times, Serif; font-size: 10pt;"></span></p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman, Times, Serif; font-size: 10pt;"> </span></p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-family: Times New Roman, Times, Serif; font-size: 10pt;">The warrants have an exercise price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustments, and will expire five years after the completion of an initial business combination or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.

The estimated fair value of Public Warrants was transferred from a Level 3 fair value measurement to a Level 1 measurement when the Public Warrants were separately listed and traded in April 2021. Accordingly, the estimated fair value of the Private Placement Warrants was transferred from a Level 3 measurement to a Level 2 because the fair value of the Private Placement Warrants was equivalent to the Public Warrants, based on the terms of the Private Warrant agreement, and as such their value is principally derived by the value of the Public Warrants.

As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the fair value of the Private Placement Warrants was the equivalent to that of the Public Warrants as they had substantially the same terms and qualified as a similar security; however, they are not actively traded, as such were listed as a Level 2 in the hierarchy table above.</span></p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman, Times, Serif; font-size: 10pt;"> </span></p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-family: Times New Roman, Times, Serif; font-size: 10pt;">For the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company recognized a loss of approximately ($2.9) million and ($2.5) million presented as change in fair value of derivative warrant liabilities in the accompanying unaudited condensed statements of operations, respectively.

Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise that engage in business activities from which it may recognize revenues and incur expenses, and for which separate financial information is available that is regularly evaluated by the Company’s chief operating decision maker, or group, in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance. </span></p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman, Times, Serif; font-size: 10pt;"> </span></p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-family: Times New Roman, Times, Serif; font-size: 10pt;">The Company’s chief operating decision maker has been identified as the <span style="-sec-ix-hidden:fc_570539270;">Chief Financial Officer</span> (“CODM”), who reviews the assets, operating results, and financial metrics for the Company as a whole to make decisions about allocating resources and assessing financial performance.
