Interest expense amounted to $527,749 and $125,489 for the period ended June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025 respectively and has been calculated based on the effective interest rate for each convertible note.

Derivative liability

 

Pursuant to ASC 815, a derivative liability had arisen from the issuance of convertible bonds which have the option of being converted to or exchanged for Class A ordinary shares at any time from date of issuance. The derivative liability is assessed to be a debt requiring to be bifurcated from the host contract and recorded at the fair value.

 

However, the conversion to ordinary shares is subject to certain terms and criteria as set within the Agreement, which includes restriction of conversion if the shareholdings by the note holder before and after the conversion exceeds 9.99%, as revised. As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the derivative is assessed to have an embedded value of $710,536 and $262,616 respectively.

 

Free standing instruments – warrants

 

The convertible bond agreements as mentioned above granted the note holders 1,292,306 series A warrant, 609,554 series C warrant, allowing the warrant holders to purchase additional Class A ordinary shares at an exercise price of $1.76 and $1.76, respectively.

 

The exercise of these warrants is subject to a 9.99% beneficial cap, as revised, which restricts the holder from exceeding shareholdings in excess of the cap in the Company. As of December 31, 2025, the threshold has been met, and accordingly the derivative is assessed to have no value. On June 15, 2026, the Company repurchased all the outstanding warrants from JAK and accordingly, there are no outstanding warrants as of June 30, 2026.

 

Public and Private – warrants

 

In connection with its initial public offering, the Company had issued 5,175,000 public warrants and 3,145,000 private warrants in a private placement transaction. Each warrant entitles the holder to purchase one ordinary share of the Company at an exercise price of $11.50 per share (subject to adjustment for share capital reorganisations and reverse stock splits).

 

The warrants may be exercised for cash or on a cashless basis at the holder’s option and are not redeemable by the Company. The warrants are exercisable commencing on the later of:

 

  ● twelve months after the date of the IPO prospectus, and

 

  ● the completion of the Company’s initial business combination.

 

The warrants expire five years after the completion of the business combination, or earlier upon liquidation of the Company.

 

As at June 30, 2026 and 31 December 2025, there were 5,175,000 public warrants and 3,145,000 private warrants outstanding.

 

During the periods since issuance, the Company completed multiple reverse stock splits. As a result, the number of ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants and the exercise price have been proportionately adjusted in accordance with the warrant agreement.

 

As at 30 June 2026, the market price of the Company’s ordinary shares was significantly below the adjusted exercise price of the warrants. Accordingly, the warrants were out of the money as at the reporting date. Management does not expect the warrants to be exercised unless the market price of the ordinary shares exceeds the exercise price prior to expiry.
