NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

SEPTEMBER 30, 2024
(Unaudited)

Note 1 - Description of Organization and Business Operations

Roth CH Acquisition Co. (the "Company") is a blank check company incorporated as a Cayman Islands exempted company on April 20, 2021 with the name TKB Critical Technologies 1. The Company changed its name on September 7, 2023 to Roth CH Acquisition Co. The Company was formed for the purpose of entering into a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses (the "initial business combination").

The Company is not limited to a particular industry or geographic location for purposes of consummating an initial business combination. The Company is an early stage and emerging growth company and, as such, the Company is subject to all of the risks associated with early stage and emerging growth companies.

As of September 30, 2024, the Company had not commenced any operations. All activity for the period from April 20, 2021 (inception) through September 30, 2024, relates to the Company's formation and its initial public offering (the "IPO"), which is described below and, subsequent to the IPO, identifying a target company for an initial business combination. The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of the initial business combination, at the earliest. The Company generates non-operating income from the marketable securities held in the Trust Account up to the termination of the Trust Account (defined below).

The registration statement for the Company's IPO was declared effective on October 26, 2021 (the "Effective Date"). On October 29, 2021, the Company consummated the IPO of 23,000,000 units (the "Units"), including 3,000,000 Units that were issued pursuant to the underwriters' exercise of their over-allotment option in full, at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $230,000,000, which is discussed in Note 3. Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, the Company consummated the sale of 10,750,000 Private Placement Warrants (the "Private Placement Warrants") at a price of $1.00 per Private Warrant in a private placement to TKB Sponsor I, LLC (the "Sponsor"), generating proceeds of $10,750,000.

Transaction costs of the IPO amounted to $21,140,059, consisting of $3,850,000of underwriting discount, $8,800,000of deferred underwriting discount, $7,748,431excess fair value of founder shares and $741,628of offering costs. Of these amounts, $19,774,814was recorded to additional paid-in capital and $1,365,245costs related to the warrant liability was expensed immediately using the residual allocation method.

Following the closing of the IPO on October 29, 2021, $234,600,000 ($10.20 per Unit) from the net proceeds of the sale of the Units in the IPO and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants was placed in a trust account (the "Trust Account"), located in the United States, which were invested in U.S. government securities, within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act, with a maturity of 185 days or less or in any open-ended investment company that holds itself out as a money market fund selected by the Company meeting the conditions of Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act, as determined by the Company, until the earlier of: (i) the completion of an initial business combination; and (ii) the redemption of any Public Shares (as defined below) properly submitted in connection with a shareholder vote to amend the Company's Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association ("Articles"); and (iii) the redemption of the Company's Public Shares if the Company is unable to complete the initial business combination by October 29, 2024 (or any extended period of time that the Company may have to consummate an initial business combination as a result of an amendment to its Articles) (the "Combination Period"). On April 29, 2024, pursuant to the Third Amendment, as described below, the Trust Account was voluntarily liquidated and the provisions in the Articles requiring that an initial business combination be completed within the Combination Period and other SPAC-related provisions (collectively, the "SPAC Provisions") were eliminated.

Prior to the effectiveness of the Third Amendment, 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 Warrants, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be applied generally toward consummating an initial business combination. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to complete an initial business combination successfully. Prior to the effectiveness of the Third Amendment, the Company was required to complete an initial business combination with one or more operating businesses or assets that together have an aggregate 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 of the Company's signing a definitive agreement in connection with its initial business combination and could only complete an initial business combination if the post-transaction company owned or acquired 50% or more of the outstanding voting securities of the target or otherwise acquired an interest in the target business or assets sufficient for it not to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "Investment Company Act").

Prior to the effectiveness of the Third Amendment, the Company was required to provide its holders of the outstanding 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) 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 shareholder will be entitled to redeem their Public Shares for a pro rata portion of the amount then in the Trust Account ($10.20 per Public Share initially, 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 and which interest shall be net of taxes payable), calculated as of two business days prior to the completion of the initial business combination. There will be no redemption rights upon the completion of an initial business combination with respect to the Company's warrants. In connection with the approval of the Third Amendment to remove the SPAC Provisions, the Company revised the Articles to allow shareholders of the Company to obtain their pro rata distribution of funds held in the Trust Account and also retain ten (10%) percent of their shares upon liquidation of the Trust Account.

On January 10, 2023, the Company, entered into a business combination agreement with Wejo Group Limited, an exempted company limited by shares incorporated under the laws of Bermuda ("Wejo"), and Green Merger Subsidiary Limited, an exempted company incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands and a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of Wejo ("Merger Sub 1") and upon execution of a joinder to the business combination agreement, each of Wejo Holdings Limited, an exempted company limited by shares incorporated under the laws of Bermuda and a wholly owned subsidiary of Wejo ("Holdco") and Wejo Acquisition Company Limited, an exempted company limited by shares incorporated under the laws of Bermuda and a wholly owned Subsidiary of Holdco ("Merger Sub 2" and together with Merger Sub 1) (as it may be amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the "Business Combination Agreement").

The shareholders also approved a proposal (the "Trust Agreement Amendment Proposal") to amend the Company's Investment Management Trust Agreement, dated as of October 26, 2021, by and between the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company as trustee (the "Trust Agreement"), to make a corresponding extension to the date the Company must commence liquidation of the Trust Account from January 29, 2023, to June 29, 2023. In connection with the vote to approve the Extension Amendment Proposal, the holders of 17,533,296Class A ordinary shares properly exercised their right to redeem their shares for cash at a redemption price of approximately $10.38per share, for an aggregate redemption amount of approximately $181.9million.

Following the closing of the Transaction, Sponsor will have certain continuing rights, including a right of first refusal to repurchase the Transferred Securities in certain circumstances as set forth in the Agreement and the right to invest up to 25% of certain financings. The closing of the Transaction is conditioned upon, among other things, (i) the termination of the Business Combination Agreement (as noted above) and the complete release of actual or potential claims or liabilities thereunder, (ii) continued listing of the Company's Class A ordinary shares on Nasdaq, (iii) the waiver by the underwriters of the Company's initial public offering of their rights to deferred underwriting compensation pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement dated as of October 26, 2021, between the Company and Jefferies LLC as representative of the underwriters named therein, and (iv) the occurrence of the Class B Conversion.

On June 26, 2023, the Company entered into a termination agreement (the "Termination Agreement"), pursuant to which the Company terminated the Administrative Services Agreement with Tartavull Klein Blatteis Capital, LLC dated October 26, 2021 and Tartavull Klein Blatteis Capital, LLC forgave and fully discharged all outstanding fees thereunder as of the date of the Closing.

At the Extraordinary General Meeting, the shareholders approved a proposal (the "Second Extension Amendment Proposal") to amend the Company's Amended and restated memorandum and articles of association (the "Articles") to extend the date that the Company has to consummate a business combination from June 29, 2023 to October 29, 2024 (the "Extension Amendment"). The shareholders also approved a proposal (the "Second Trust Agreement Amendment Proposal") to amend the Company's Trust Agreement, to make a corresponding extension to the date by which the Trustee is obligated to liquidate the trust account to the later of (A) June 29, 2023 provided that the Company may extend such date, monthly, up to October 29, 2024 (i.e.: 36 months after the closing of the IPO provided that the Sponsor or its designee deposits the Monthly Deposit (as defined below) into the trust account), or (B) such later date as may be approved by the Company's shareholders in accordance with the Company's amended and restated memorandum and articles of association. The term "Monthly Deposit" is defined in the Amendment to mean an amount equal to the lesser of (x) $60,000or (y) $0.03 per public share multiplied by the number of public shares outstanding. In connection with the vote to approve the Second Extension Amendment Proposal, the holders of 3,347,468Class A ordinary shares properly exercised their right to redeem their shares for cash at a redemption price of approximately $10.64per share, for an aggregate redemption amount of approximately $35,601,649. These shares were effectively canceled on July 7, 2023.

On each of January 5, 2024, February 6, 2024, and March 6, 2024, the Company deposited an additional $60,000, for an aggregate of $180,000, into the trust extending the date of which the Company has to complete a Business Combination to March 29, 2024.

On February 29, 2024, Gordon Roth resigned as Chief Financial Officer of the Company and the Board appointed Joseph Tonnos as Chief Financial Officer of the Company, effective February 29, 2024. Mr. Roth's decision to resign was not the result of any dispute or disagreement with the Company or any matter relating to the Company's operations, policies or practices.

On April 3, 2024, the Overpayment Amount, as described in Note 8, was deposited back into Trust Account.

On April 15, 2024, Roth CH Acquisition Co. (the "Company") announced that it had notified the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC ("Nasdaq") of its decision to voluntarily delist its Class A Ordinary Shares, Units and Warrants exercisable for one Class A Ordinary Share at an exercise price of $11.50from the Nasdaq Global Market. The Company filed a Form 25 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") to remove its Class A Ordinary Shares, Units, and Warrants from listing on the Nasdaq Global Market on April 25, 2024 and as a result, the delisting became effective on April 25, 2024. The Company remains subject to such reporting obligations under Sections 13 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act. Following the delisting, the Company has its Class A Ordinary Shares, Units, and Warrants quoted on a market operated by OTC Markets Group Inc. (the "OTC") so that a trading market may continue to exist for such securities.

On April 29, 2024, the shareholders approved the amendment of the Articles of Association ("Third Amendment"). The Third Amendment reflects the removal of the provisions contained in the Articles that are applicable to special purpose acquisition companies ("SPACs"), including the requirement to redeem and cancel 100% of the Company's Public Shares following distribution of the funds held in the Company's trust account established in connection with the IPO. In connection with the implementation of the Third Amendment, the Company redeemed 90% of the Public Shares and provided each holder their pro rata share of the balance in the Trust Account. The trust liquidation was effective May 15, 2024.

Liquidity and Going Concern

As of September 30, 2024, the Company had $43,585cash and a working capital deficit of $1,886,196. The Company has incurred and expects to continue to incur significant costs in pursuit of its financing and acquisition plans. The Company expects that it will need to raise additional capital through loans or additional investments from its Sponsor, shareholders, officers, directors or third parties. The Company's officers, directors and Sponsor may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds, from time to time or at any time, in whatever amount they deem reasonable in their sole discretion, to meet the Company's working capital needs. Accordingly, the Company may not be able to obtain additional financing. If the Company is unable to raise additional capital, it may be required to take additional measures to conserve liquidity, which could include, but not necessarily be limited to, curtailing operations, suspending the pursuit of a potential transaction, and reducing overhead expenses. The Company cannot provide any assurance that new financing will be available to it on commercially acceptable terms, if at all. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The condensed financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

The Company assessed going concern considerations in accordance with Financial Accounting Standard Board's Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 205-40, "Basis of Presentation - Going Concern". Management has determined that the liquidity condition raises substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. No adjustments have been made to the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities.

Risks and Uncertainties

Management continues to evaluate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and has concluded that while it is reasonably possible that the virus could have a negative effect on the Company's financial position, results of its operations, and/or search for a target company, the specific impact is not readily determinable as of the date of these condensed financial statements. The condensed financial statements does not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

In February 2022, the Russian Federation and Belarus commenced a military action with the country of Ukraine. As a result of this action, various nations, including the United States, have instituted economic sanctions against the Russian Federation and Belarus. Further, the impact of this action and related sanctions on the world economy are not determinable as of the date of these condensed financial statements. The specific impact on the Company's financial condition, results of operations and cash flows is also not determinable as of the date of these condensed financial statements.

Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements as of September 30, 2024 have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP for interim financial information and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Certain information or footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC for interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of a normal recurring nature, which are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, operating results and cash flows for the periods presented.

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. The interim results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the period ending December 31, 2024 or for any future period.

Emerging Growth Company

The Company is 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 independent registered public accounting firm 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 shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.

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 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 condensed financial statements with another public company, which 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.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the condensed financial statements in conformity with 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 condensed financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues 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 condensed financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. One of the more significant accounting estimates included in these condensed financial statements is the determination of the fair value of the warrant liabilities. Such estimates may be subject to change as more current information becomes available. Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. The Company had $43,585and $13,755of operating cash as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had nocash equivalents.

Cash and Marketable Securities Held in Trust Account

Following the closing of the IPO on October 29, 2021, an amount of $234,600,000from the net proceeds of the sale of the Units in the IPO and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants was placed in the Trust Account and may be invested only in U.S. government securities with a maturity of 185 days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act which invest only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations. The Trust Account is intended as a holding place for funds pending the earliest to occur of: (i) the completion of the initial business combination; (ii) the redemption of any Public Shares properly submitted in connection with a shareholder vote to amend the Articles (A) to modify the substance or timing of the Company's obligation to redeem 100% of the Public Shares if the Company does not complete the initial business combination within the Combination Period or (B) with respect to any other provision relating to shareholders' rights or pre-initial business combination activity; or (iii) absent an initial business combination within the Combination Period, the return of the funds held in the Trust Account to the public shareholders as part of redemption of the Public Shares. As of September 30, 2024, the Trust account was fully liquidated. As of December 31, 2023, substantially all of the assets held in the money market funds were invested primarily in U.S. Treasury securities.

Offering Costs Associated with IPO

Offering costs consisted of legal, accounting and other expenses incurred through the IPO that were directly related to the IPO. Offering costs were allocated to the separable financial instruments issued in the IPO based on a relative fair value basis, compared to total proceeds received. Offering costs allocated to warrant liabilities were expensed as incurred in the statements of operations. Offering costs associated with the Class A ordinary shares issued were initially charged to temporary equity and then accreted to ordinary shares subject to redemption upon the completion of the IPO. Accordingly, on October 29, 2021, offering costs totaled $21,140,059(consisting of $3,850,000of underwriting fees, $8,800,000of deferred underwriting fees, $7,748,431excess fair value of Founder Shares and $741,628of actual offering costs, with $1,365,245included in the statement of operations for the period ending December 31, 2021 as an allocation for the Public Warrants and the Private Placement Warrants, and $19,774,814included in additional paid-in capital).

Derivative Financial Instruments

The Company evaluates its financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives in accordance with ASC Topic 815, "Derivatives and Hedging." For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value on the grant date and is then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the condensed statements of operations. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is evaluated at the end of each reporting period. Derivative liabilities are classified in the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement or conversion of the instrument could be required within 12 months of the balance sheet date.

Warrant Liabilities

The Company accounts for the 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. 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 from equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the warrants are indexed to the Company's own ordinary shares, among other conditions for equity classification. This assessment, which requires the use of professional judgement, is conducted at the time of warrant issuance and as of each subsequent quarterly period end date while the warrants are outstanding.

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 warrants are recognized as a non-cash gain or loss on the condensed statements of operations. See Note 9 for valuation methodology of warrants.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The fair value of the Company's assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under ASC Topic 820, "Fair Value Measurement" ("ASC 820"), approximates the carrying amounts represented in the condensed balance sheets, primarily due to their short-term nature, except warrant liabilities.

Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received for sale of an asset or paid for transfer of a liability, in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. GAAP establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). These tiers include:

●

Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical instruments in active markets;

	●	Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable such as quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and
	●	Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions, such as valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.

In some circumstances, the inputs used to measure fair value might be categorized within different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In those instances, the fair value measurement is categorized in its entirety in the fair value hierarchy based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

Class A Ordinary Shares Subject to Possible Redemption

As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had 5,836,553and 7,794,236Class A ordinary shares outstanding, of which zero and 2,119,236shares are Class A ordinary shares subject to redemption, respectively. The Company accounts for its Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in ASC 480. Class A ordinary shares subject to mandatory redemption are classified as a liability instrument and are measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable ordinary shares (including 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, ordinary shares are classified as shareholders' equity. The Company's Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption feature certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company's control and subject to occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, zero and 2,119,236of Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption are presented at redemption value as temporary equity, outside of the shareholders' deficit section of the Company's condensed balance sheets, respectively.

The Company recognizes changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and adjusts the carrying value of redeemable ordinary shares to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Increases or decreases in the carrying amount of redeemable ordinary shares are affected by charges against additional paid in capital and accumulated deficit.

As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption, classified as temporary equity in the condensed balance sheets, are reconciled in the following table:

		Shares			Amount

Income Taxes

The Company follows the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes under ASC 740, "Income Taxes" ("ASC 740"). Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the condensed financial statements carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that included the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

FASB ASC 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. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. There were nounrecognized tax benefits and noamounts accrued for interest and penalties as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviation from its position.

There is currently no taxation imposed on income by the Government of the Cayman Islands. In accordance with federal income tax regulations, income taxes are not levied on the Company, but rather on the individual owners. United States ("U.S.") taxation would occur on the individual owners if certain tax elections are made by U.S. owners and the Company were treated as a passive foreign investment company. Additionally, U.S. taxation could occur to the Company itself if the Company is engaged in a U.S. trade or business. The Company is not expected to be treated as engaged in a U.S. trade or business at this time.

Net (Loss) Income Per Ordinary Share

The Company complies with accounting and disclosure requirements of FASB ASC Topic 260, "Earnings Per Share". Net (loss) income per ordinary share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding for the period. The Company has two classes of ordinary shares, which are referred to as Class A ordinary shares and Class B ordinary shares. Income and losses are shared pro rata between the two classes of ordinary shares. Accretion associated with the redeemable Class A ordinary shares is excluded from earnings per share as the redemption value approximates fair value. The calculation of diluted income per share does not consider the effect of the warrants issued in connection with the (i) IPO and (ii) the private placement since the exercise of the warrants is contingent upon the occurrence of future events. The warrants are exercisable to purchase 22,250,000Class A ordinary shares in the aggregate. As of September 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company did not have any dilutive securities or other contracts that could, potentially, be exercised or converted into ordinary shares and then share in the earnings of the Company.

The following table reflects the calculation of basic and diluted net (loss) income per ordinary share (in dollars, except per share amounts):

		For the Three Months Ended September 30,			For the Nine Months Ended September 30,
		2024			2023			2024			2023

Related Parties

Parties, which can be a corporation or an individual, are considered to be related if the Company has the ability, directly or indirectly, to control the other party or exercise significant influence over the other party in making financial and operational decisions. Companies are also considered to be related if they are subject to common control or common significant influence.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of a cash account in a financial institution, which, at times, may exceed the Federal Depository Insurance Corporation coverage of $250,000. The Company has not experienced losses on this account.

Recent Accounting Standards

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-06, "Debt-Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging-Contracts in Entity's Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity's Own Equity" ("ASU 2020-06"), which simplifies accounting for convertible instruments by removing major separation models required under current GAAP. ASU 2020-06 removes certain settlement conditions that are required for equity contracts to qualify for the derivative scope exception and it also simplifies the diluted earnings per share calculation in certain areas. ASU 2020-06 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which requires disaggregated information about a reporting entity's effective tax rate reconciliation, as well as information related to income taxes paid to enhance the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures. This ASU will be effective for the annual period ending December 31, 2025. The Company is currently evaluating the timing and impacts of adoption of this ASU.

The Company's management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards if currently adopted would have a material effect on the accompanying condensed financial statements.

Note 3 - Initial Public Offering

In connection with the Company's IPO, on October 29, 2021, the Company sold 23,000,000Units at a price of $10.00per Unit. Each Unit consists of one Class A ordinary share ("Public Shares") and one-half of one warrant ("Public Warrants"). Each whole Public Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one Class A ordinary share at a price of $11.50per share, subject to adjustment (see Note 7).

An aggregate of $10.20per Unit sold in the IPO was held in the Trust Account and invested in U.S. government securities, within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act, with a maturity of 185 days or less or in any open-ended investment company that holds itself out as a money market fund meeting the conditions of Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act, as determined by the Company. As of October 29, 2021, $234,600,000of the IPO proceeds and proceeds from the sale of the Private Placement Warrants was held in the Trust Account, representing an overfunding of the Trust Account of 102.0% of the IPO size.

Transaction costs as of the IPO date amounted to $21,140,059, consisting of $3,850,000of underwriting discount, $8,800,000of deferred underwriting discount, $7,748,431excess fair value of Founder Shares and $741,628of offering costs.

Note 4 - Private Placement

Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, the Sponsor purchased an aggregate of 10,750,000Private Placement Warrants at a price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant ($10,750,000 in the aggregate). Each Private Placement Warrant is exercisable for one Class A ordinary share at an exercise price of $11.50per share, subject to adjustment (see Note 7). A portion of the proceeds from the Private Placement Warrants were added to the proceeds from the IPO to be held in the Trust Account. If the Company does not complete an initial business combination within the Combination Period, the proceeds from the sale of the Private Placement Warrants held in the Trust Account will be used to fund the redemption of the Public Shares (subject to the requirements of applicable law), and the Private Placement Warrants will expire worthless.

Note 5 - Related Party Transactions

Founder Shares

In April 2021, the Sponsor purchased 5,750,000shares of the Company's Class B ordinary shares (the "Founder Shares") for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000. The Founder Shares included an aggregate of up to 750,000shares subject to forfeiture by the Sponsor to the extent that the underwriters' overallotment option was not exercised in full or in part, so that the number of Founder Shares collectively represents 20% of the Company's issued and outstanding ordinary shares after the IPO. Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, the underwriters exercised the over-allotment option in full. Accordingly, 750,000Founder Shares are no longer subject to forfeiture.

The Sponsor has agreed, subject to certain limited exceptions, not to transfer, assign or sell any of the Founder Shares until the earlier of (A) one year after the completion of an initial business combination or (B) subsequent to an initial business combination, (x) if the last reported sale price of the Class A ordinary shares equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for share sub-divisions, share reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after an initial business combination, or (y) the date on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, stock exchange, reorganization or other similar transaction that results in all of the Company's shareholders having the right to exchange their Class A ordinary shares for cash, securities or other property.

On October 8, 2021, the Sponsor entered into agreements with certain funds managed by Apollo Capital Management, L.P. (collectively, "Apollo"), certain funds managements by Atalaya Capital Management, LP ("Atalaya") and Meteora Capital Partners, L.P. and funds affiliated with Meteora Capital Partners, L.P. (collectively "Meteora") (individually and collectively, the "anchor investors"). Each of the anchor investors purchased 9.9% of the Units in the IPO (excluding Units issued in connection with the exercise of the over-allotment option). Each of Apollo and Atalaya agreed to purchase interests in the Sponsor representing approximately 7% of the Founder Shares and Private Placement Warrants at approximately the cost of such securities to the Sponsor, with the Sponsor's obligation to sell some or all of such interests conditioned upon such anchor investor's purchase of the Units.

Meteora entered into a separate agreement with the Sponsor pursuant to which it agreed to purchase interests in the Sponsor representing approximately 6.4% of the Founder Shares for approximately 3.7% of the cost of the Founder Shares and Private Placement Warrants to the Sponsor.

The anchor investors acquired from the Sponsor an indirect economic interest in an aggregate of 1,173,000Founder Shares at the original purchase price that the Sponsor paid for the Founder Shares. The Sponsor has agreed to distribute the Founder Shares to the anchor investors after the completion of an initial business combination. The Company estimates the aggregate fair value of the Founder Shares attributable to the anchor investors to be approximately $7,753,530, or $6.61per share.

The excess of the fair value of the Founder Shares was determined to be an offering cost in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 5A. Accordingly, the offering cost was allocated to the separable financial instruments issued in the IPO based on a relative fair value basis, compared to total proceeds received. Offering costs allocated to derivative warrant liabilities were expensed as incurred in the statement of operations. Offering costs allocated to the Public Shares were charged to shareholder's deficit upon the completion of the IPO.

On October 7, 2022, the Company entered into a vendor agreement, as described in Note 8, whereas the Sponsor assigned 23,883Class B ordinary shares to the vendor, effective upon the completion of a successful initial business combination.

The assignment of the Founder Shares to the vendor 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. The Company has hired a valuation firm to assess, using the lattice model, the fair value associated with the Founder Shares granted. The fair value of the 23,883shares granted to the Company's vendor in October 2022 was $28,946or $1.212 per share. The Founder Shares were granted 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 met under the applicable accounting literature in this circumstance. As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company determined the performance conditions had not been met, and, therefore, no stock-based compensation expense has been recognized. Stock-based compensation would be recognized at the date the performance conditions are met (i.e., upon consummation of an initial business combination) in an amount equal to the number of Founder Shares vested times the grant date fair value per share (unless subsequently modified) less the amount initially received for the purchase of the Founder Shares.

The Phelan Note was amended and restated on March 9, 2023. As of January 30, 2023, Sponsor had drawn $250,000under the Phelan Note and subsequently advanced these funds to the Company. The Phelan Note is non-interest bearing and non-convertible. All unpaid principal accrued under the Phelan Note will be repaid at the closing of the Business Combination or the earlier termination of the Business Combination Agreement in certain circumstances specified in the Phelan Note. In consideration for the Phelan Note, Sponsor agreed to pay to the Lender at the closing of the Business Combination a commitment fee equal to 50% of the then-outstanding principal balance of the Phelan Note up to a maximum of $375,000.

The fair value of the Founder Shares was determined using the value of the Class A Units, reduced by the probability of no acquisition and by a discount for a lack of marketability with a volatility of 107.88%, risk-free rate of 4.78% and a stock price of $10.33 as of the valuation date of January 5, 2023. The Private Placement Warrants were valued at $0.03per warrant, which was the closing price of the Company's public warrants on January 5, 2023. The Company utilized this value as Private Warrants are classified as Level 2 due to the use of an observable market quote for a similar asset in an active market under the ticker USCTW (See Note 9).

Ordinary shareholders of record are entitled to one vote for each share held on all matters to be voted on by shareholders and holders of Class A ordinary shares and holders of Class B ordinary shares will vote together as a single class on all matters submitted to a vote of the shareholders except as required by law; provided that only holders of Class B ordinary shares will have the right to vote on the appointment of directors prior to or in connection with the completion of the initial business combination.

The Class B ordinary shares will automatically convert into Class A ordinary shares at the time of an initial business combination on a one-for-one basis, subject to adjustment. In the case that additional Class A ordinary shares, or equity-linked securities, are issued or deemed issued in excess of the amounts offered in the IPO and related to the closing of an initial business combination, the ratio at which Class B ordinary shares shall convert into Class A ordinary shares will be adjusted (unless the holders of a majority of the outstanding Class B ordinary shares to waive such adjustment with respect to any such issuance or deemed issuance) so that the number of Class A ordinary shares issuable upon conversion of all Class B ordinary shares will equal, in the aggregate, on an as-converted basis, 20% of the sum of the total number of all ordinary shares outstanding upon the completion of the IPO plus all Class A ordinary shares and equity-linked securities issued or deemed issued by the Company in connection with or in relation to the consummation of the initial business combination, excluding any forward purchase securities, any Class A ordinary shares or equity-linked securities exercisable for or convertible into Class A ordinary shares issued, or to be issued, to any seller in the initial business combination and any private placement warrants issued to the Sponsor upon conversion of Working Capital Loans. In no event will the Class B ordinary shares convert into Class A ordinary shares at a rate of less than one to one.

Conversion of Class B shares

On January 18, 2023, pursuant to the terms of the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association of the Company, the Sponsor, the holder of an aggregate of 5,650,000of the Company's outstanding Class B ordinary shares, par value $0.0001per share ("Class B Shares"), elected to convert each outstanding Class B Share held by it on a one-for-one basis into Class A ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share ("Class A Shares") of the Company, with immediate effect.

Note 7 - Warrant Liabilities

The Company accounts for the 22,250,000warrants that were issued in the IPO (representing 11,500,000Public Warrants and 10,750,000Private Placement Warrants) in accordance with the guidance contained in ASC 815-40. Such guidance provides that because the warrants do not meet the criteria for equity treatment thereunder, each warrant must be recorded as a liability. The warrants do not meet the criteria to be considered indexed to the Company's stock due to settlement provisions that result in holders of warrants receiving variable settlement amounts determined by the reference table. Additionally, an event that is not within the entity's control could require net cash settlement, thus precluding equity classification. Accordingly, the Company will classify each warrant as a liability at its fair value. This liability is subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet date. With each such re-measurement, the warrant liability will be adjusted to fair value, with the change in fair value recognized in the Company's statement of operations.

Warrants - Public Warrants may only be exercised for a whole number of Class A ordinary shares. No fractional warrants will be issued upon separation of the Units and only whole warrants will trade. Accordingly, unless holders purchase at least two Units, they will not be able to receive or trade a whole warrant. The Public Warrants will become exercisable 30 days after the completion of an initial business combination.

The Company will not be obligated to deliver any Class A ordinary shares pursuant to the exercise of a Public Warrant and will have no obligation to settle such Public Warrant exercise unless a registration statement under the Securities Act with respect to the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the Public Warrants is then effective and a prospectus relating thereto is current, subject to the Company satisfying its obligations with respect to registration, or a valid exemption from registration is available. No Public Warrant will be exercisable, and the Company will not be obligated to issue any Class A ordinary shares upon exercise of a Public Warrant unless the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon such Public Warrant exercise has been registered, qualified or deemed to be exempt under the securities laws of the state of residence of the registered holder of the Public Warrants.

The Company has agreed that as soon as practicable, but in no event later than 20 business days after the closing of an initial business combination, it will use its commercially reasonable efforts to file with the SEC a post-effective amendment to the registration statement filed in connection with its IPO or a new registration statement covering registration under the Securities Act, of the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the Public Warrants, and the Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the same to become effective within 60 business days after the closing of an initial business combination, and to maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement and a current prospectus relating to those Class A ordinary shares until the Public Warrants expire or are redeemed, as specified in the warrant agreement; provided that if the Class A ordinary shares is at the time of any exercise of a Public 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" in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act and, in the event the Company so elects, the Company will not be required to file or maintain in effect a registration statement, but it will use its commercially reasonably efforts to register or qualify the shares under applicable blue sky laws to the extent an exemption is not available. If a registration statement covering the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the Public Warrants is not effective by the 60^th day after the closing of an initial business combination, Public Warrant holders may, until such time as there is an effective registration statement and during any period when the Company will have failed to maintain an effective registration statement, exercise Public Warrants on a "cashless basis" in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act or another exemption, but the Company will use its commercially reasonably efforts to register or qualify the shares under applicable blue sky laws to the extent an exemption is not available.

Redemption of warrants when the price per Class A ordinary share equals or exceeds $18.00. Once the Public Warrants become exercisable, the Company may redeem the Public Warrants:

	●	in whole and not in part;
	●	at a price of $0.01per warrant;
	●	upon not less than 30 days' prior written notice of redemption to each warrant holder; and
	●	if, and only if, the last reported sale price of the Class A ordinary share equals or exceeds $18.00 per share (as adjusted for share sub-divisions, share capitalizations, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period ending three trading days before the Company sends the notice of redemption to the warrant holders.

If and when the Public Warrants become redeemable by the Company, it may exercise its redemption right even if the Company is unable to register or qualify the underlying securities for sale under all applicable state securities laws.

Redemption of warrants when the price per Class A ordinary share equals or exceeds $10.00. Once the Public Warrants become exercisable, the Company may redeem the Public Warrants:

	●	in whole and not in part;
	●	at a price of $0.10 per warrant;
	●	upon a minimum of 30 days' prior written notice of redemption to each warrant holder; provided that holders will be able to exercise their warrants on a cashless basis prior to redemption and receive that number of shares based on the redemption date and the fair market value of the Class A ordinary share;
	●	if, and only if, the last reported sale price of the Class A ordinary share equals or exceeds $10.00 per share (as adjusted per share sub-divisions, share dividends, reorganizations, reclassifications, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within the 30-trading day period ending three trading days before the Company send the notice of redemption to the warrant holders; and
	●	if the last reported sale price of the Class A ordinary share for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which the Company sends the notice of redemption to the warrant holders is less than $18.00 per share (as adjusted for share sub-divisions, share capitalizations, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like), the Private Placement Warrants must also be concurrently called for redemption on the same terms as the outstanding Public Warrants, as described above.

In addition, if (x) the Company issues additional Class A ordinary shares or equity-linked securities (excluding the forward purchase securities) for capital raising purposes in connection with the closing of an initial business combination at an issue price or effective issue price of less than $9.20 per Class A ordinary share (with such issue price or effective issue price to be determined in good faith by the Company's board of directors and, in the case of any such issuance to the Sponsor or its affiliates, without taking into account any Founder Shares held by the Sponsor or such affiliates, as applicable, prior to such issuance) (the "Newly Issued Price"), (y) the aggregate gross proceeds from such issuances represent more than 60% of the total equity proceeds, and interest thereon, available for the funding of an initial business combination on the date of the consummation of an initial business combination (net of redemptions), and (z) the volume weighted average trading price of the Class A ordinary shares during the 20 trading day period starting on the trading day prior to the day on which the Company consummates an initial business combination (such price, the "Market Value") is below $9.20 per share, then the exercise price of the warrants will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 115% of the higher of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price, the $18.00 per share redemption trigger price described above under "Redemption of warrants when the price per Class A ordinary share equals or exceeds $18.00" and "Redemption of warrants when the price per Class A ordinary share equals or exceeds $10.00" will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 180% of the higher of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price, and the $10.00 per share redemption trigger price described above under "Redemption of warrants when the price per Class A ordinary share equals or exceeds $10.00" will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to the higher of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price.

The Private Placement Warrants are identical to the Public Warrants underlying the Units sold in the IPO, except that the Private Placement Warrants and the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon the exercise of the Private Placement Warrants are not transferable, assignable or saleable until 30 days after the completion of an initial business combination, subject to certain limited exceptions. Additionally, the Private Placement Warrants are exercisable for cash or on a cashless basis, at the holder's option, and are non-redeemable so long as they are held by the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees (except for a number of Class A ordinary shares as described above under "Redemption of warrants when the price per Class A ordinary share equals or exceeds $10.00"). If the Private Placement Warrants are held by someone other than the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees, the Private Placement Warrants will be redeemable by the Company in all redemption scenarios and exercisable by such holders on the same basis as the Public Warrants.

Note 8 - Commitments and Contingencies

Note 9 - Fair Value Measurements

The Company follows the guidance in ASC 820 for its financial assets and liabilities that are re-measured and reported at fair value at each reporting period, and non-financial assets and liabilities that are re-measured and reported at fair value at least annually.

The fair value of the Company's financial assets and liabilities reflects management's estimate of amounts that the Company would have received in connection with the sale of the assets or paid in connection with the transfer of the liabilities in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In connection with measuring the fair value of its assets and liabilities, the Company seeks to maximize the use of observable inputs (market data obtained from independent sources) and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs (internal assumptions about how market participants would price assets and liabilities). The following fair value hierarchy is used to classify assets and liabilities based on the observable inputs and unobservable inputs used in order to value the assets and liabilities:

	Level 1:	Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. An active market for an asset or liability is a market in which transactions for the asset or liability occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.
	Level 2:	Observable inputs other than Level 1 inputs. Examples of Level 2 inputs include quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities and quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.
	Level 3:	Unobservable inputs based on the Company's assessment of the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

The following table presents information about the Company's assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation inputs the Company utilized to determine such fair value:

Description		Level			September 30, 2024			December 31, 2023
Assets:
Cash and marketable securities held in trust account		1			$	-			$	23,332,031
Liabilities:
Warrant liability - Public Warrants		2				13,800				287,500
Warrant liability - Private Placement Warrants		2				12,900				268,750

The warrants were accounted for as liabilities in accordance with ASC 815-40 and are presented within warrant liabilities in the accompanying condensed balance sheets. The warrant liabilities are measured at fair value at inception and on a recurring basis, with changes in fair value presented within the condensed statements of operations.

As of September 30, 2024, the aggregate values of the Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants were $13,800and $12,900, respectively, based on a fair value of $0.0012per warrant. As of December 31, 2023, the aggregate values of the Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants were $287,500and $268,750, respectively, based on a fair value of $0.03per warrant.

The following table presents the changes in the fair value of warrant liabilities:

		Private Placement			Public			Warrant Liabilities
Fair value as of January 1, 2024		$	268,750			$	287,500			$	556,250
Change in fair value			(117,175	)			(125,350	)			(242,525	)
Fair value as of March 31, 2024		$	151,575			$	162,150			$	313,725
Change in fair value			(138,675	)			(148,350	)			(287,025	)
Fair value as of June 30, 2024		$	12,900			$	13,800			$	26,700
Change in fair value			-				-				-
Fair value as of September 30, 2024		$	12,900			$	13,800			$	26,700

		Private Placement			Public			Warrant Liabilities
Fair value as of January 1, 2023		$	233,275			$	249,550			$	482,825
Change in fair value			1,379,225				1,475,450				2,854,675
Fair value as of March 31, 2023		$	1,612,500			$	1,725,000			$	3,337,500
Change in fair value			(1,310,425	)			(1,401,850	)			(2,712,275	)
Fair value as of June 30, 2023		$	302,075			$	323,150			$	625,225
Change in fair value			572,975				612,950				1,185,925
Fair value as of September 30, 2023		$	875,050			$	936,100			$	1,811,150

The Company established the initial fair value for the warrants on October 29, 2021, the date of the consummation of the Company's IPO. The Company used a Black-Scholes model to value the warrants. For periods subsequent to the detachment of the Public Warrants from the Units, the close price of the Public Warrant will be used as the fair value as of each reporting period. The subsequent measurements of the Private Placement Warrants are classified as Level 2 due to the use of an observable market quote for a similar asset in an active market under the ticker USCTW. As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Public Warrants have detached from the Units, and the closing price is utilized as the fair value.

Transfers to/from Levels 1, 2 and 3 are recognized at the end of the reporting period in which a change in valuation technique or methodology occurs. There was a transfer of $13,800from level 1 to level 2 during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 due to insufficient trading volume. There were no other transfers to/from Levels 1, 2, and 3 during the nine months ended September 30, 2023.

Overview

We are a blank check company incorporated in the Cayman Islands for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses, which we refer to throughout this Quarterly Report as our initial business combination.

We expect to incur significant costs in the pursuit of our initial business combination. We cannot assure you that our plans to raise capital or to complete our initial business combination will be successful. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

Terminated Business Combination

On January 10, 2023, the Company entered into a business combination agreement with Wejo Group Limited, an exempted company limited by shares incorporated under the laws of Bermuda ("Wejo") and Green Merger Subsidiary Limited, an exempted company incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands and a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of Wejo (the "Merger Sub 1") and upon execution of a joinder to the business combination agreement, each of Wejo Holdings Limited, an exempted company limited by shares incorporated under the laws of Bermuda and a wholly owned subsidiary of Wejo ("Holdco") and Wejo Acquisition Company Limited, an exempted company limited by shares incorporated under the laws of Bermuda and a wholly owned Subsidiary of Holdco (the "Merger Sub 2," and together with Merger Sub 1, the "Merger Subs") (as it may be amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the "Business Combination Agreement").

On June 25, 2023, the Company, Wejo, Holdco, Merger Sub 1 and Merger Sub 2 entered into that certain Mutual Termination Agreement ("Termination Agreement") pursuant to which the parties mutually agreed to terminate the Business Combination Agreement pursuant to Section 7.1(a) thereof. The Termination Agreement also includes mutual releases of the parties. No party will be required to pay a termination fee as a result of the mutual decision to enter into the Termination Agreement.

The termination of the Business Combination Agreement also terminated the Voting Agreement, dated as of January 10, 2023 ("Wejo Voting Agreement") between the Company and certain shareholders of Wejo and the Voting Agreement, dated as of January 10, 2023 (the "Sponsor Voting Agreement") between the Company, Sponsor and Directors, pursuant to the terms of the Wejo Voting Agreement and Sponsor Voting Agreement, respectively.

Conversion of Class B Shares

Effective as of January 18, 2023, pursuant to the terms of the Company's Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association (the "Articles"), the Sponsor elected to convert 5,650,000 Class B ordinary shares held by it on a one-for-one basis into Class A ordinary shares, with immediate effect. On June 28, 2023, holders of an aggregate of 25,000 outstanding Class B ordinary shares elected to convert those shares on a one-for-one basis into Class A ordinary shares, with immediate effect, leaving 75,000 Class B ordinary shares outstanding.

Extensions

On January 27, 2023, the Company received shareholder approval to amend its Articles to extend the date by which it must complete an initial business combination from January 29, 2023 to June 29, 2023 (the "Extension"). Shareholders also approved an amendment to the Company's Investment Management Trust Agreement, dated as of October 26, 2021, by and between the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company as trustee (the "Trust Agreement"), to make a corresponding extension to the date the Company must commence liquidation of the Trust Account from January 29, 2023 to June 29, 2023. In connection with the vote to approve the Extension, the holders of 17,533,296 Class A Shares properly exercised their right to redeem their shares for cash at a redemption price of approximately $10.38 per share, for an aggregate redemption amount of approximately $181.9 million. After the satisfaction of such redemptions, the balance in the Company's Trust Account was approximately $56.7 million.

On June 28, 2023, the Company held an extraordinary general meeting (the "Second Extraordinary General Meeting"). At the Extraordinary General Meeting, the shareholders approved a proposal (the "Second Extension Amendment Proposal") to amend the Company's Amended and restated memorandum and articles of association (the "Articles") to extend the date that the Company has to consummate a business combination from June 29, 2023 to October 29, 2024 (the "Extension Amendment"). The shareholders also approved a proposal (the "Second Trust Agreement Amendment Proposal") to amend the Company's Trust Agreement, to make a corresponding extension to the date by which the Trustee is obligated to liquidate the trust account to the later of (A) June 29, 2023 provided that the Company may extend such date, monthly, up to October 29, 2024 (i.e.: 36 months after the closing of the IPO provided that the Sponsor or its designee deposits the Monthly Deposit (as defined below) into the trust account), or (B) such later date as may be approved by the Company's shareholders in accordance with the Company's amended and restated memorandum and articles of association. The term "Monthly Deposit" is defined in the Amendment to mean an amount equal to the lesser of (x) $60,000 or (y) $0.03 per public share multiplied by the number of public shares outstanding. In connection with the vote to approve the Second Extension Amendment Proposal, the holders of 3,347,468 Class A ordinary shares properly exercised their right to redeem their shares for cash at a redemption price of approximately $10.64 per share, for an aggregate redemption amount of approximately $35,601,649. As of the date of these condensed financial statements, the Company has deposited an aggregate of $540,000 into the trust account for a total of nine Monthly Deposits, thereby extending the Business Combination period to March 29, 2024.

On April 29, 2024, the shareholders approved the amendment of the Articles of Association ("Third Amendment"). The Third Amendment reflects the removal of the provisions contained in the Articles that are applicable to special purpose acquisition companies ("SPACs"), including the requirement to redeem and cancel 100% of the Company's Public Shares following distribution of the funds held in the Company's trust account established in connection with the IPO (collectively, the "SPAC Provisions"). In connection with the implementation of the Third Amendment, the Company redeemed 90% of the Public Shares and provided each holder their pro rata share of the balance in the Trust Account. The trust liquidation was effective May 15, 2024.

Working Capital Advance

On January 26, 2023, in connection with the proposed Business Combination, Sponsor entered into a promissory note (the "Phelan Note") with Daniel Phelan ("Lender"), which provides for working capital for the Company in an aggregate principal amount of up to $750,000. The Phelan Note was amended and restated on March 9, 2023. As of January 27, 2023, the Company had drawn $250,000 under the Phelan Note and subsequently advanced these funds to the Company. The Phelan Note is non-interest bearing and non-convertible. All unpaid principal accrued under the Phelan Note will be repaid at the closing of the Business Combination or the earlier termination of the Business Combination Agreement in certain circumstances specified in the Phelan Note. In consideration for the Phelan Note, Sponsor agreed to pay to the Lender at the closing of the Business Combination a commitment fee equal to 50% of the then-outstanding principal balance of the Phelan Note up to a maximum of $375,000. If the Business Combination does not close, the commitment fee will not be paid. During 2023, the Sponsor forgave the debt and the Company recorded a contribution from sponsor of $250,000. In addition, the Company recorded a $125,000 expense and a corresponding increase in additional paid in capital related to the commitment fee that will be paid by the Sponsor upon the closing of the Business Combination.

Results of Operations

We have neither engaged in any operations nor generated any revenues to date. Our only activities through September 30, 2024 were organizational activities, those necessary to prepare for the Initial Public Offering described below, and subsequent to the Initial Public Offering, identifying a target company for an initial business combination. We will not generate any operating revenues until after completion of our initial business combination. We generate non-operating income in the form of interest income on cash and cash equivalents. Our expenses have increased substantially after the closing of our initial public offering as a result of being a public company (for legal, financial reporting, accounting and auditing compliance), as well as for due diligence expenses.

For the three months ended September 30, 2024, we had net loss of $59,858 which consists of operational costs.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, we had net income of $450,355 which consists of interest earned on marketable securities held in the Trust Account of $435,437 and the change in fair value of warrant liabilities of $529,550, offset by operational costs of $514,632.

For the three months ended September 30, 2023, we had net loss of $1,267,241 which consists of the change in fair value of warrant liabilities of $1,185,925 and operational costs of $460,206, offset by forgiveness of debt of $42,181, and interest earned on marketable securities held in the Trust Account of $336,709.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we had net income of $1,345,709 which consists of the change in fair value of warrant liabilities of $1,328,325, commitment fee of $125,000 and formation and operational costs of $4,097,406, offset by interest earned on marketable securities held in the Trust Account of $2,204,264 and forgiveness of debt of $4,692,176.

Liquidity, Capital Resources and Going Concern

Until the consummation of the initial public offering, our only source of liquidity was an initial purchase of Founder Shares by our Former Sponsor, TKB Sponsor, LLC, for $25,000 and a $300,000 loan from our Former Sponsor which has been repaid in full in connection with the closing of the IPO.

On October 29, 2021, we consummated the initial public offering of 23,000,000 units, at $10.00 per unit, which included the full exercise by the underwriters of their over-allotment option in the amount of 3,000,000 units, generating gross proceeds of $230,000,000.

Simultaneously with the closing of the initial public offering, the Company completed the private sale of an aggregate of 10,750,000 warrants to our sponsor at a purchase price of $1.00 per private placement warrant, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $10,750,000.

A total of $234,600,000 of the proceeds from the initial public offering and the sale of the private placement warrants were placed in a U.S.-based Trust Account at J.P. Morgan Chase Bank, N.A., maintained by Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, acting as trustee.

Transaction costs of the initial public offering amounted to $21,140,059, consisting of $3,850,000 of underwriting discount, $8,800,000 of deferred underwriting discount, $7,748,431 of excess fair value of Founder Shares and $741,628 of actual offering costs. Of these amounts, $19,774,814 was recorded to additional paid-in capital and $1,365,245 costs related to the warrant liability was expensed immediately using the residual allocation method.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, net cash used in operating activities was $317,074. Net income of $450,355 was adjusted by $435,437 of interest income on marketable securities held in trust and a $529,550 change in fair value of warrant liabilities. Changes in operating assets and liabilities provided $197,558 of cash for operating activities.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, net cash used in operating activities was $664,645. Net income of $1,345,709 was adjusted by $2,204,264 of interest income on marketable securities held in trust, $4,692,176 of forgiveness of debt, $1,328,325 change in fair value of warrant liabilities, $125,000 of interest expense and $3,432,761 changes in operating assets and liabilities.

As of September 30, 2024, the Trust account was fully liquidated.

As of September 30, 2024, we had cash of $43,585. We intend to use the funds primarily to identify and evaluate target businesses, perform business due diligence on prospective target businesses, travel to and from the offices, plants or similar locations of prospective target businesses or their representatives or owners, review corporate documents and material agreements of prospective target businesses, and structure, negotiate and complete a business combination.

On July 1, 2023 the Company entered into a promissory note with the Buyers for up to an aggregate of $1,000,000 (the "2023 Promissory Note). The 2023 Promissory Note is non-interest bearing and payable upon the earlier of the date on which the Company consummates an initial business combination, the liquidation of the Company, or October 29, 2024. The Note does not bear any interest. On August 8, 2024, the Company amended the terms of the 2023 Promissory Note to increase the aggregate principal amount that may be borrowed to $2,000,000 and to extend the maturity to June 30, 2025. As of September 30, 2024, the Company had drawn $1,109,412 on the 2023 Promissory Note and had $890,588 available to be drawn.

We expect that we will need to raise additional funds in order to meet the expenditures required for operating our business prior to our initial business combination. We expect to incur significant costs related to identifying a target business, undertaking in-depth due diligence and negotiating an initial business combination. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of time within one year from the date that the condensed financial statements are issued. In order to fund working capital deficiencies or finance transaction costs in connection with an intended initial business combination, our sponsor or an affiliate of our sponsor or certain of our officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan us funds as may be required. If we complete our initial business combination, we will repay such loaned amounts. In the event that our initial business combination does not close, we may use a portion of the working capital held outside the Trust Account to repay such loaned amounts but no proceeds from our Trust Account would be used for such repayment. Up to $1,500,000 of such loans may be convertible into warrants of the post-business combination entity at a price of $1.00 per warrant at the option of the lender. The warrants would be identical to the private placement warrants. The terms of such loans, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such loans. Prior to the completion of our initial business combination, we do not expect to seek loans from parties other than our sponsor or an affiliate of our sponsor as we do not believe third parties will be willing to loan such funds and provide a waiver against any and all rights to seek access to funds in our Trust Account.

On April 29, 2024, the shareholders approved the amendment of the Articles of Association ("Third Amendment"). As a result of the Third Amendment, the Company distributed all remaining sums in the trust account to shareholders and also permitted shareholders to retain 10% of their shares, after subtracting amounts for taxes and up to $100,000 for dissolution expenses.

The Company assessed going concern considerations in accordance with Financial Accounting Standard Board's Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 205-40, "Basis of Presentation - Going Concern". Management has determined that the liquidity condition raises substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. No adjustments have been made to the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities.

Off-Balance Sheet Financing Arrangements

We have no obligations, assets or liabilities, which would be considered off-balance sheet arrangements as of September 30, 2024. We do not participate in transactions that create relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, often referred to as variable interest entities, which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements. We have not entered into any off-balance sheet financing arrangements, established any special purpose entities, guaranteed any debt or commitments of other entities, or purchased any non-financial assets.

Contractual Obligations

We do not have any long-term debt obligations, capital lease obligations, operating lease obligations, purchase obligations or other long-term liabilities, other than described below.

We had an agreement to pay our sponsor a monthly fee of $10,000 for office space, utilities and administrative support. We began incurring these fees on October 29, 2021 and incurred these fees monthly through June 28, 2023 when the agreement was terminated.

The underwriters of the initial public offering were entitled to a deferred fee $8,800,000. The deferred fee would have become payable to the underwriters from the amounts held in the Trust Account solely in the event that we completed our initial business combination, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement. In June 2023, the underwriters agreed to waive its entitlement to the deferred underwriting commission of $8,800,000 to which it became entitled upon completion of the Company's Initial Public Offering, subject to the consummation of the Transaction.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of condensed financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed financial statements, and income and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. Significant estimates include the fair value of warrant liabilities, which requires a Black-Scholes model to fair value the warrants. We have identified the following critical accounting policies:

Warrant Liabilities

The Company accounts for the 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. 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 from equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the warrants are indexed to the Company's own ordinary shares, among other conditions for equity classification. This assessment, which requires the use of professional judgment, is conducted at the time of warrant issuance and as of each subsequent quarterly period end date while the warrants are outstanding.

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 warrants are recognized as a non-cash gain or loss on the condensed statements of operations. See Note 9 for valuation methodology of warrants.

Class A Shares Subject to Possible Redemption

The Company accounts for its ordinary shares subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in ASC 480. Ordinary shares subject to mandatory redemption are classified as a liability instrument and are measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable ordinary shares (including 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, ordinary shares are classified as shareholders' deficit. The Company's ordinary shares feature certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company's control and subject to occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, at September 30, 2024, the Company had no ordinary shares subject to possible redemption. At December 31, 2023, ordinary shares subject to possible redemption are presented at redemption value as temporary equity, outside of the shareholders' deficit section of the Company's condensed balance sheets.

The Company recognizes changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and adjusts the carrying value of redeemable ordinary shares to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Increases or decreases in the carrying amount of redeemable ordinary shares are affected by charges against additional paid in capital and accumulated deficit.

Net Income Per Ordinary Share

The Company complies with accounting and disclosure requirements of FASB ASC Topic 260, "Earnings Per Share". Net income per ordinary share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding for the period. The Company has two classes of ordinary shares, which are referred to as Class A Shares and Class B Shares. Income and losses are shared pro rata between the two classes of ordinary shares. Accretion associated with the redeemable Class A Shares is excluded from earnings per share as the redemption value approximates fair value. The calculation of diluted income per share does not consider the effect of the warrants issued in connection with the (i) IPO and (ii) the private placement since the exercise of the warrants is contingent upon the occurrence of future events. The warrants are exercisable to purchase 22,250,000 Class A Shares in the aggregate. As of September 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company did not have any dilutive securities or other contracts that could, potentially, be exercised or converted into ordinary shares and then share in the earnings of the Company.

Recent Accounting Standards

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-06, "Debt-Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging-Contracts in Entity's Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity's Own Equity" ("ASU 2020-06"), which simplifies accounting for convertible instruments by removing major separation models required under current GAAP. ASU 2020-06 removes certain settlement conditions that are required for equity contracts to qualify for the derivative scope exception and it also simplifies the diluted earnings per share calculation in certain areas. ASU 2020-06 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which requires disaggregated information about a reporting entity's effective tax rate reconciliation, as well as information related to income taxes paid to enhance the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures. This ASU will be effective for the annual period ending December 31, 2025. The Company is currently evaluating the timing and impacts of adoption of this ASU.

The Company's management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards if currently adopted would have a material effect on the accompanying condensed financial statements.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We are a smaller reporting company as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act. As a result, pursuant to Item 305(e) of Regulation S-K, we are not required to provide the information required by this Item.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Co-Chief Executive Officers and our Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

As required by Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act, our Co-Chief Executive Officers and our Chief Financial Officer carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2024. Based upon their evaluation, our Co-Chief Executive Officers and our Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) were not effective, due to the material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting related to the Company's accounting for complex financial instruments and approval process of shareholder redemptions, including making greater use of third-party professionals with whom we consult regarding accounting applications. As a result, we performed additional analysis as deemed necessary to ensure that our condensed financial statements were prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Accordingly, management believes that the condensed financial statements included in this Form 10-Q present fairly in all material respects our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the period presented.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2024 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting, with the exception noted below.

The co-principal executive officers and principal financial and accounting officer performed additional post-closing review procedures including reviewing historical filings and consulting with subject matter experts related to the accounting for complex financial instruments. While we have processes to properly identify and evaluate the appropriate accounting technical pronouncements and other literature for all significant or unusual transactions, we have improved, and will continue to improve, these processes to ensure that the nuances of such transactions are effectively evaluated in the context of the increasingly complex accounting standards.
