CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (“Report”), including “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” contains forward-looking statements, within the meaning of the federal securities laws, including the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, regarding future events and the future results of the Company that are based on current expectations, estimates, forecasts, and projections about the industry in which the Company operates and the beliefs and assumptions of the management of the Company. Words such as “expects,” “anticipates,” “targets,” “goals,” “projects,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “seeks,” “estimates,” variations of such words, and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are only predictions and are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict. These factors include but are not limited to the “Summary Risk Factors” and “Risk Factors” described herein.

 

You should read the matters described and incorporated by reference in “Summary Risk Factors” and “Risk Factors” and the other cautionary statements made in this Report, and incorporated by reference herein, as being applicable to all related forward-looking statements wherever they appear in this Report. We cannot assure you that the forward-looking statements in this Report will prove to be accurate and therefore prospective investors are encouraged not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements.

 

Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this Report or the date of any document incorporated by reference in this Report, as applicable. Except to the extent required by applicable law or regulation, we do not undertake any obligation to update forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this Report or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

 

Summary Risk Factors

 

We face risks and uncertainties related to our business, many of which are beyond our control. In particular, risks associated with our business include:

 

our ability to realize anticipated benefits of the business combination, and unanticipated expenses or delays in connection with the business combination;

 

if we seek stockholder approval of our initial business combination, our initial stockholders and members of our management team have agreed to vote in favor of such initial business combination, regardless of how our public stockholders vote;

 

past performance by our sponsor and our management team including their affiliates and including the businesses referred to herein, may not be indicative of future performance of an investment in us or in the future performance of any business that we may acquire.

 

our management may not be able to maintain control of a target business after our initial business combination. Upon the loss of control of a target business, new management may not possess the skills, qualifications or abilities necessary to profitably operate such business.

 

we may not be able to complete our initial business combination in the prescribed time frame;

 

your only opportunity to affect the investment decision regarding a potential business combination may be limited to the exercise of your right to redeem your shares from us for cash;

 

we may not be successful in retaining or recruiting required officers, key employees or directors following our initial business combination;

 

our officers and directors may have difficulties allocating their time between our Company and other businesses and may potentially have conflicts of interest with our business or in approving our initial business combination. We are dependent upon our executive officers and directors and their loss could adversely affect our ability to operate;

 

we may not be able to obtain additional financing to complete our initial business combination or reduce the number of shareholders requesting redemption. The ability of our public stockholders to exercise redemption rights with respect to a large number of our shares may not allow us to complete the most desirable business combination or optimize our capital structure;

 

ii

 

 

we may issue our shares to investors in connection with our initial business combination at a price that is less than the prevailing market price of our shares at that time;

 

Our sponsor paid an aggregate of $25,000, or approximately $0.009 per founder share, and, accordingly, you will experience immediate and substantial dilution from the purchase of the shares of our Class A common stock;

 

Since our sponsor paid only approximately $0.009 per share for the founder shares, our officers and directors could potentially make a substantial profit even if we acquire a target business that subsequently declines in value;

 

you may not be given the opportunity to choose the initial business target or to vote on the initial business combination.

 

Subsequent to the completion of our initial business combination, we may be required to take write-downs or write-offs, restructuring and impairment or other charges that could have a significant negative effect on our financial condition, results of operations and our share price, which could cause you to lose some or all of your investment;

 

trust account funds may not be protected against third party claims or bankruptcy;

 

an active market for our public securities’ may not develop and you will have limited liquidity and trading;

 

the availability to us of funds from interest income on the trust account balance may be insufficient to operate our business prior to the business combination; and

 

our financial performance following a business combination with an entity may be negatively affected by their lack an established record of revenue, cash flows and experienced management.

 

Changes in laws or regulations, or a failure to comply with any laws and regulations, may adversely affect our business, including our ability to negotiate and complete our initial business combination and results of operations.

 

Other risk factors included under “Risk Factors” in our latest Annual Report on Form 10-K and set forth below under “Risk Factors”.

AROGO CAPITAL ACQUISITION CORP.

Notes to the UNAUDITED financial statements

 

NOTE 1 — DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION, BUSINESS OPERATIONS AND GOING CONCERN

 

Arogo Capital Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) was incorporated in Delaware on June 9, 2021. The Company was formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses (the “Business Combination”). The Company is not limited to a particular industry or sector for purposes of consummating a 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 March 31, 2023, the Company had not commenced any operations. All activity for the period from June 9, 2021 (inception) through March 31, 2023 relates to the Company’s formation and the initial public offering (“Initial Public Offering”), which is described below. The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of its initial Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company will generate non-operating income in the form of interest income from the proceeds derived from the Proposed Public Offering. The Company has selected December 31 as its fiscal year end.

 

The registration statement for the Company’s Initial Public Offering was declared effective on December 23, 2021. On December 29, 2021, the Company consummated the Initial Public Offering of 9,000,000 units (“Units” and, with respect to the common stock included in the Units being offered, the “Public Shares”), generating gross proceeds of $90,000,000, which is described in Note 3. The Company granted the underwriter a 45-day option from the date of Initial Public Offering to purchase up to 1,350,000 additional Units to cover over-allotments, if any, at the Initial Public Offering price less the underwriting discounts and commissions. On December 29, 2021, the underwriters exercised this option and purchased 1,350,000 additional Units generating gross proceeds of $13,500,000.

 

Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the private sale (the “Private Placement”) of an aggregate of 422,275 Units (the “Private Placement Units”) to Koo Dom Investment LLC (the “Sponsor”) at a purchase price of $10.00 per Private Placement Unit, generating gross proceeds to the Company in the amount of $4,222,750. Upon exercise of the underwriter over-allotment option, the Sponsor purchased an additional 43,875 Private Placement Units at a purchase price of $10.00 per unit generating additional gross proceeds of $438,750.

 

As of December 29, 2021, transaction costs amounted to $6,524,539 consisting of $1,811,250 of underwriting fees (gross of a discount of $400,000), $3,622,500 of deferred underwriting fees payable (which are held in a trust account with Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company acting as trustee (the “Trust Account”), the fair value of the 25,875 shares of Class A common stock issued to the underwriter of $258,750 and $832,039 of other offering costs related to the Initial Public Offering. Cash of $1,007,897 was held outside of the Trust Account on December 29, 2021 and was available for working capital purposes. As described in Note 6, the $3,622,500 deferred underwriting fees are contingent upon the consummation of the Business Combination within 12 months (or up to 21 months if extended) from the closing of the Initial Public Offering.

 

Following the closing of the Initial Public Offering on December 29, 2021, an amount of $105,052,500 ($10.15 per Unit) from the net proceeds of the sale of the Units in the Initial Public Offering and the Private Placement was placed in the Trust Account which may be invested in U.S. government securities, within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), 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 consummation of a Business Combination or (ii) the distribution of the Trust Account, as described below.

 

5

 

 

The Company’s management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and the sale of Private Placement Units, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be applied generally toward consummating a Business Combination. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to complete a Business Combination successfully. The Company must complete one or more initial Business Combinations with one or more operating businesses or assets with a fair market value equal to at least 80% of the net assets held in the Trust Account (as defined below) (excluding the deferred underwriting commissions and taxes payable on the interest earned on the Trust Account). The Company will only complete a Business Combination if the post-transaction company owns or acquires 50% or more of the outstanding voting securities of the target or otherwise acquires a controlling interest in the target business sufficient for it not to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”). Upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering, management has agreed that an amount equal to at least $10.15 per Unit sold in the Initial Public Offering, including proceeds of the Private Placement Units, will be held in a trust account (“Trust Account”), located in the United States and invested only 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 certain conditions of Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act, as determined by the Company, until the earlier of: (i) the completion of a Business Combination and (ii) the distribution of the funds held in the Trust Account, as described below.

 

The Company will provide the holders of the outstanding Public Shares (the “Public Shareholders”) with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares either (i) in connection with a shareholder meeting called to approve the Business Combination or (ii) by means of a tender offer in connection with the Business Combination. The decision as to whether the Company will seek shareholder approval of a Business Combination or conduct a tender offer will be made by the Company. The Public Shareholders will be entitled to redeem their Public Shares for a pro rata portion of the amount then in the Trust Account (initially anticipated to be $10.15 per Public Share, plus any pro rata interest then in the Trust Account, net of taxes payable). There will be no redemption rights upon the completion of a Business Combination with respect to the Company’s warrants. The Public Shares subject to redemption will be recorded at a redemption value and classified as temporary equity upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering in accordance with the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity” (ASC 480).

   

All of the Public Shares contain a redemption feature which allows for the redemption of such Public Shares in connection with our liquidation, if there is a stockholder vote or tender offer in connection with our initial business combination and in connection with certain amendments to our amended and restated certificate of incorporation. In accordance with SEC and its guidance on redeemable equity instruments, which has been codified in ASC 480-10-S99, redemption provisions not solely within the control of a company require common stock subject to redemption to be classified outside of permanent equity. Given that the Public Shares will be issued with other freestanding instruments (i.e., public warrants). the initial value of Class A common stock classified as temporary equity will be the allocated proceeds determined in accordance with ASC 470-20. The Class A common stock is subject to ASC 480-10-S99. If it is probable that the equity instrument will become redeemable. we have the option to either (i) accrete changes in the redemption value over the period from the date of issuance (or from the date that it becomes probable that the instrument will become redeemable, if later) to the earliest redemption date of the instrument or (ii) recognize changes in the redemption value immediately as they occur and adjust the carrying amount of the instrument to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. We have elected to recognize the changes immediately. The accretion or remeasurement will be treated as a deemed dividend (i.e., a reduction to retained earnings. or in absence of retained earnings. additional paid-in capital). While redemptions cannot cause the Company’s net tangible assets to fall below $5,000,001, the Public Shares are redeemable and will be classified as such on the balance sheet until such date that a redemption event takes place.

 

If the Company seeks stockholder approval of the Business Combination, the Company will proceed with a Business Combination if a majority of the outstanding shares voted are voted in favor of the Business Combination, or such other vote as required by law or stock exchange rule. If a stockholder vote is not required by applicable law or stock exchange listing requirements and the Company does not decide to hold a stockholder vote for business or other reasons, the Company will, pursuant to its amended and restated certificate of incorporation (the “Certificate of Incorporation”), conduct the redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and file tender offer documents with the SEC prior to completing a Business Combination. If, however, stockholder approval of the transaction is required by applicable law or stock exchange listing requirements, or the Company decides to obtain stockholder approval for business or other reasons, the Company will offer to redeem shares in conjunction with a proxy solicitation pursuant to the proxy rules and not pursuant to the tender offer rules. If the Company seeks stockholder approval in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor has agreed to vote its Founder Shares (as defined in Note 5) and any Public Shares purchased during or after the Initial Public Offering in favor of approving a Business Combination. Additionally, each Public Stockholder may elect to redeem their Public Shares without voting, and if they do vote, irrespective of whether they vote for or against the proposed transaction.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company seeks stockholder approval of a Business Combination and it does not conduct redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules, the Certificate of Incorporation provides that a Public Stockholder, together with any affiliate of such stockholder or any other person with whom such stockholder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined under Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), will be restricted from redeeming its shares with respect to more than an aggregate of 15% of the Public Shares, without the prior consent of the Company.

 

The holders of the Founder Shares have agreed (a) to waive their redemption rights with respect to the Founder Shares and Public Shares held by them in connection with the completion of a Business Combination and (b) not to propose an amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation (i) to modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to allow redemptions in connection with a Business Combination or to redeem 100% of its Public Shares if the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period (as defined below) or (ii) with respect to any other provision relating to stockholders’ rights or pre-business combination activity, unless the Company provides the Public Stockholders with the opportunity to redeem their Public Shares in conjunction with any such amendment.

 

On March 24, 2023, the Company held a Special Meeting of Stockholders (the “Meeting”). At the Meeting, the Company’s stockholders approved the Charter Amendment, which extends the date by which the Company must consummate its initial Business Combination from March 29, 2023 to December 29, 2023, subject to the approval of the Board of Directors of the Company. Stockholders holding 5,289,280 shares of common stock exercised their right to redeem their shares for cash at an approximate price of $10.33 per share of the funds in the Trust Account. As a result, on April 6, 2023, approximately $54,675,740 was removed from the Trust Account to pay such holders. See Note 5, Subsequent Events.

 

The holders of the Founders Shares have agreed to waive their liquidation rights with respect to the Founder Shares if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period. However, if the holders of Founder Shares acquire Public Shares in or after the Initial Public Offering, such Public Shares will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period. The underwriters have agreed to waive their rights to their deferred underwriting commission (see Note 6) held in the Trust Account in the event the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period and, in such event, such amounts will be included with the other funds held in the Trust Account that will be available to fund the redemption of the Public Shares. In the event of such distribution, it is possible that the per share value of the assets remaining available for distribution will be less than the Initial Public Offering price per Unit ($10.00).

 

In order to protect the amounts held in the Trust Account, the Sponsor has agreed to be liable to the Company if and to the extent any claims by a third party for services rendered or products sold to the Company, or a prospective target business with which the Company has discussed entering into a transaction agreement, reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account to below (i) $10.15 per Public Share or (ii) such lesser amount per Public Share held in the Trust Account as of the date of the liquidation of the Trust Account, if less than $10.15 per public Share due to reductions in the value of the trust assets, in each case net of the amount of interest which may be withdrawn to pay taxes, except as to any claims by a third party who executed a waiver of any and all rights to seek access to the Trust Account and except as to any claims under the Company’s indemnity of the underwriters of the Initial Public Offering against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). Moreover, in the event that an executed waiver is deemed to be unenforceable against a third party, the Sponsor will not be responsible to the extent of any liability for such third-party claims. The Company will seek to reduce the possibility that the Sponsor will have to indemnify the Trust Account due to claims of creditors by endeavoring to have all vendors, service providers (except for the Company’s independent registered accounting firm), prospective target businesses and other entities with which the Company does business, execute agreements with the Company waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to monies held in the Trust Account.

 

Merger Agreement

 

On April 25, 2022, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among the Company, Arogo Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Arogo (“Merger Sub”), Eon Reality, Inc., a California corporation (“EON”), Koo Dom Investment, LLC, in its capacity as (“Purchaser Representative”), and EON, in its capacity as (“Seller Representative”).

 

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, at the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement (the “Closing”), Merger Sub will merge with and into EON, with EON continuing as the surviving corporation (the “Surviving Corporation”).

 

7

 

 

As consideration for the Merger, the holders of EON securities collectively shall be entitled to receive from Arogo, in the aggregate, a number of the Company securities with an aggregate value equal to (the “Merger Consideration”) (a) Five Hundred and Fifty Million U.S. Dollars ($550,000,000) minus (b) the amount of Closing Net Indebtedness (the total portion of the Merger Consideration amount payable to all EON Stockholders in accordance with the Merger Agreement is also referred to herein as the “Stockholder Merger Consideration”). Additionally, the Company shall make available to EON (x) up to $105,052,500 Million U.S. Dollars for working capital use and general corporate purposes, assuming no redemptions (the “Primary Capital”) and (y) the proceeds from any PIPE Investment, any other alternative PIPE Investment and any other Private Placements, subject to the Closing conditions. The closing of a PIPE investment is not a condition to closing of the Merger Agreement. There is no minimum cash condition to the closing of the Merger Agreement.

 

Liquidity and Management’s Plan

 

As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 the Company had cash of $195,987 and $52,989 respectively and working capital deficit of $864,949 and a working capital surplus $758,420 respectively. In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-15, “Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern,” management has determined that given the liquidity condition and the date for mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Accordingly, the Company plan to consummate a Business Combination prior to the mandatory liquidation date. No adjustments have been made to the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities should the Company be required to liquidate.

 

Risks and Uncertainties

 

Management is currently evaluating 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, close of the Proposed Public Offering and/or search for a target company, the specific impact is not readily determinable as of the date of these financial statements. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

NOTE 2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying audited balance sheet is presented in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC.

 

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, as amended (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 stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.

 

Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under 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 financial statements with another public company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of the balance sheet in conformity with US 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 balance sheet.

 

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 balance sheet, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.

 

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 cash of $195,987 and $52,989 for March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively and no cash equivalents as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

 

Cash held in Trust Account

 

At March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 the Company had $106,713,361 and $105,941,664 in cash held in the Trust Account, respectively.

 

Offering Costs associated with the Initial Public Offering

 

The Company complies with the requirements of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) ASC 340-10-S99-1 and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) Topic 5A, “Expenses of Offering.” Offering costs of $832,039 consisted principally of costs incurred in connection with preparation for the Initial Public Offering. These offering costs, together with the underwriter fees of $5,433,750 (or $1,811,250 (gross of a discount of $400,000) paid in cash upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering and a deferred fee of $3,622,500) and the fair value of the 25,875 shares of Class A common stock issued to the underwriter of $258,750, were charged to stockholders’ equity upon completion of the Initial Public Offering.

 

Class A common stock subject to possible redemption

 

The Company accounts for its Class A common stock subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance enumerated in ASC 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity”. Common stock subject to mandatory redemption are classified as a liability instrument and are measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable common stock (including common stock that features 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) is classified as temporary equity. At all other times, common stock is classified as stockholders’ equity. The Company’s Class A common stock features certain redemption rights that are considered by the Company to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to the occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, at March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 the 10,350,000 shares of Class A common stock subject to possible redemption in the amount of $106,713,361 and $105,941,664 is presented as temporary equity, outside of the stockholders’ deficit section of the Company’s balance sheet, respectively.

Income Taxes

 

The Company follows the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes under ASC 740, “Income Taxes.” Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the 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.

  

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’s management determined the United States is the Company’s only major tax jurisdiction. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits, if any, as income tax expense. There were no unrecognized tax benefits as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 and no amounts accrued for interest and penalties. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviation from its position. The Company is subject to income tax examinations by major taxing authorities since inception.

 

Income taxes was accrued for $208,439 for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and the income tax payable for December 31, 2022 was $165,799.

 

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 Coverage of $250,000. The Company has not experienced losses on this account and the management believes the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such account.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received for sale of an asset or paid to transfer of a liability, in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. US 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.

  

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 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. The Company did not have derivative instruments as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

 

Recent Accounting Standards

 

Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s balance sheet.

 

NOTE 3 — INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING

 

Pursuant to the Initial Public Offering, the Company sold 9,000,000 Units at a price of $10.00 per Unit. Each Unit consists of one share of Class A common stock and one redeemable warrant (“Public Warrant”). Each whole Public Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share of Class A common stock at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment (see Note 7). On December 29, 2021, the underwriters exercised the over-allotment option by purchasing 1,350,000 additional units, generating $13,500,000.

 

10

 

 

NOTE 4 — PRIVATE PLACEMENTS

 

The Sponsor purchased an aggregate of 466,150 Private Placement Units at a price of $10.00 per Private Placement Unit generating an aggregate of $4,661,500 from the Company in private placements that occurred simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering. Each Private Placement Unit is comprised of one Class A share and one warrant. Each Private Placement Warrant is exercisable to purchase one share of Common stock at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment (see Note 7). The proceeds from the sale of the Private Placement Units were added to the net proceeds from the Initial Public Offering held in the Trust Account. If the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the proceeds from the sale of the Private Placement Units 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. The Private Placement Units (including Class A Common stock issuable upon exercise of the Private Placement Warrants) will not be transferable, assignable or salable until 30 days after the completion of an Initial Business Combination, subject to certain exceptions.

 

NOTE 5 — RELATED PARTIES

 

Founder Shares

 

On June 30, 2021, the Sponsor received 2,875,000 of the Company’s Class B common stock (the “Founder Shares”) for $25,000 to be paid at a later date. On October 11, 2021, the sponsor surrendered and forfeited 287,500 Founder Shares for no consideration, following which the Sponsor holds 2,587,500 Founder Shares. All share amounts have been retroactively restated to reflect this surrender. So that the number of Founder Shares will equal, on an as-converted basis, approximately 20% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of common stock after the Initial Public Offering.

 

The holders of the Founder Shares have agreed, subject to limited exceptions, not to transfer, assign or sell any of the Founder Shares until the earlier to occur of: (A) one year after the completion of a Business Combination and (B) subsequent to a Business Combination, (x) if the last reported sale price of the Class A common stock equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock capitalizations, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period following the consummation of a Business Combination, or (y) the date on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, capital stock exchange or other similar transaction that results in all of the Public Stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of common stock for cash, securities or other property.

  

Promissory Note — Related Party

 

On October 26, 2021, the Sponsor issued an unsecured promissory note to the Company (the “Promissory Note”), pursuant to which the Company may borrow up to an aggregate principal amount of $300,000. The Promissory Note is non-interest bearing and payable on the earlier of (i) February 28, 2022 or (ii) the consummation of the Proposed Public Offering. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there was no amount outstanding under the Promissory Note.

 

Advances from Related Parties

 

Affiliates of the Sponsor advanced $1,000 to the Company for working capital. These advances are due on demand and are non-interest bearing. For the period from June 9, 2021 (inception) through March 31, 2023, the related parties paid $67,198 on behalf of the Company. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there was $67,198 due to the related parties.

 

General and Administrative Services

 

Commencing on the date the Units are first listed on the Nasdaq, the Company has agreed to pay the Sponsor a total of $10,000 per month for office space, utilities and secretarial and administrative support for up to 21 months. Upon completion of the Initial Business Combination or the Company’s liquidation, the Company will cease paying these monthly fees.

 

Related Party Loans

 

In order to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor, or certain of the Company’s officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds as may be required (“Working Capital Loans”). Such Working Capital Loans would be evidenced by promissory notes. The notes may be repaid upon completion of a Business Combination, without interest, or, at the lender’s discretion, up to $1,500,000 of the notes may be converted upon completion of a Business Combination into units at a price of $10.00 per unit. Such units would be identical to the Private Placement Units. In the event that a Business Combination does not close, the Company may use a portion of proceeds held outside the Trust Account to repay the Working Capital Loans but no proceeds held in the Trust Account would be used to repay the Working Capital Loans. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there were $140,000 and $0 outstanding under the Working Capital Loans.

NOTE 6 — COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

Registration Rights

 

The holders of the Founder Shares, Private Placement Units and warrants that may be issued upon conversion of Working Capital Loans (and any shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of the Private Placement Warrants or warrants issued upon conversion of the Working Capital Loans and upon conversion of the Founder Shares) will be entitled to registration rights pursuant to a registration rights agreement to be signed prior to or on the effective date of Initial Public Offering requiring the Company to register such securities for resale (in the case of the Founder Shares, only after conversion to shares of Class A common stock). The holders of these securities will be entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short form registration demands, that the Company register such securities. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to completion of a Business Combination and rights to require the Company to register for resale such securities pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act. However, the registration rights agreement provides that the Company will not be required to effect or permit any registration or cause any registration statement to become effective until the securities covered thereby are released from their lock-up restrictions. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.

 

Underwriting Agreement

 

The Company granted the underwriters a 45-day option from the date of Proposed Public Offering to purchase up to 1,350,000 additional Units to cover over-allotments, if any, at the Proposed Public Offering price less the underwriting discounts and commissions. The underwriters exercised this option simultaneously with close of the Initial Public Offering.

 

The underwriters were paid a cash underwriting discount of $0.175 per Unit, or $1,811,250 (gross of a discount of $400,000), upon the closing of the Proposed Public Offering. In addition, the underwriters are entitled to a deferred fee of $0.35 per Unit, or $3,622,500. The deferred fee will become payable to the underwriters from the amounts held in the Trust Account solely in the event that the Company completes a Business Combination, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement.

 

The underwriters also received to 25,875 shares of Class A common stock upon the consummation of the IPO. The fair value of the shares issued to the underwriter was $258,750.

 

NOTE 7 — STOCKHOLDER’S EQUITY

 

Preferred StockThe Company is authorized to issue 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock with a par value of $0.0001 per share. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 there were no shares of preferred stock issued or outstanding.

 

Class A Common Stock — The Company is authorized to issue 100,000,000 shares of Class A common stock with a par value of $0.0001 per share. Holders of Class A common stock are entitled to one vote for each share. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31 2022, there were 492,025 shares of Class A common stock issued and outstanding. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 there were 10,350,000 shares of Class A common stock that were classified as temporary equity in the accompanying balance sheet.

 

Class B Common Stock — The Company is authorized to issue 10,000,000 shares of Class B common stock with a par value of $0.0001 per share. Holders of Class B common stock are entitled to one vote for each share. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there were 2,587,500 shares of Class B common stock issued and outstanding.

 

Only holders of the Class B common stock will have the right to vote on the election of directors prior to the Business Combination. Holders of Class A common stock and holders of Class B common stock will vote together as a single class on all matters submitted to a vote of our shareholders except as otherwise required by law. In connection with our initial business combination, we may enter into a stockholders agreement or other arrangements with the stockholders of the target or other investors to provide for voting or other corporate governance arrangements that differ from those in effect upon completion of the IPO.

 

The shares of Class B common stock will automatically convert into Class A common stock at the time of a Business Combination, or earlier at the option of the holder, on a one-for-one basis, subject to adjustment. In the case that additional shares of Class A common stock, or equity-linked securities, are issued or deemed issued in excess of the amounts issued in the Proposed Public Offering and related to the closing of a Business Combination, the ratio at which shares of Class B common stock shall convert into shares of Class A common stock will be adjusted (unless the holders of a majority of the then-outstanding shares of Class B common stock agree to waive such adjustment with respect to any such issuance or deemed issuance) so that the number of shares of Class A common stock issuable upon conversion of all shares of Class B common stock will equal, in the aggregate, on an as-converted basis, 20% of the sum of the total number of all shares of common stock outstanding upon the completion of Proposed Public Offering plus all shares of Class A common stock and equity-linked securities issued or deemed issued in connection with a Business Combination (net of the number of shares of Class A common stock redeemed in connection with a Business Combination), excluding any shares or equity-linked securities issued or issuable to any seller of an interest in the target to us in a Business Combination.

 

12

 

 

Warrants — Public Warrants may only be exercised for a whole number of shares. No fractional warrants will be issued upon separation of the Units and only whole warrants will trade. The Public Warrants will become exercisable on the later of (a) 30 days after the completion of a Business Combination and (b) 12 months from the closing of the Proposed Public Offering. The Public Warrants will expire five years after the completion of a Business Combination or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.

 

The Company will not be obligated to deliver any shares of Class A common stock pursuant to the exercise of a warrant and will have no obligation to settle such warrant exercise unless a registration statement under the Securities Act covering the issuance of the shares of Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants is then effective and a current prospectus relating to those shares of Class A common stock is available, subject to the Company satisfying its obligations with respect to registration, or a valid exemption from registration is available. No warrant will be exercisable for cash or on a cashless basis, and the Company will not be obligated to issue any shares to holders seeking to exercise their warrants, unless the issuance of the shares upon such exercise is registered or qualified under the securities laws of the state of residence of the exercising holder, or an exemption from registration is available.

  

The Company has agreed that as soon as practicable, but in no event later than 15 business days after the closing of a Business Combination, the Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to file, and within 60 business days following a Business Combination to have declared effective, a registration statement covering the issuance of the shares of Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants and to maintain a current prospectus relating to those shares of Class A common stock until the warrants expire or are redeemed. Notwithstanding the above, if the Class A common stock is at the time of any exercise of a warrant not listed on a national securities exchange such that it satisfies 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 will use its commercially reasonable 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 Share of Class A Common Stock Equals or Exceeds $18.00 — Once the warrants become exercisable, the Company may redeem the outstanding Public Warrants:

 

  in whole and not in part;

 

  at a price of $0.01 per Public Warrant;

 

  upon a minimum of 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption, or the 30-day redemption period to each warrant holder; and

 

  if, and only if, the last reported sale price of the Class A common stock equals or exceeds $18.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganization, recapitalizations and the like) 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 warrant holders.

 

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

 

If the Company calls the Public Warrants for redemption, as described above, its management will have the option to require any holder that wishes to exercise the Public Warrants to do so on a “cashless basis,” as described in the warrant agreement. The exercise price and number of common stock issuable upon exercise of the Public Warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances including in the event of a stock dividend, extraordinary dividend or recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation. However, except as described below, the Public Warrants will not be adjusted for issuances of common stock at a price below its exercise price. Additionally, in no event will the Company be required to net cash settle the Public Warrants. If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period and the Company liquidates the funds held in the Trust Account, holders of Public Warrants will not receive any of such funds with respect to their Public Warrants, nor will they receive any distribution from the Company’s assets held outside of the Trust Account with respect to such Public Warrants. Accordingly, the Public Warrants may expire worthless.

 

The Private Placement Warrants will be identical to the Public Warrants underlying the Units being sold in the Initial Public Offering.

 

NOTE 8 — SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

The Company evaluated subsequent events and transactions that occurred after the balance sheet and based upon this review, the Company did not identify any other subsequent events that would have required adjustment to or disclosure in the financial statement.

 

On March 24, 2023, the Company held a Special Meeting of Stockholders. At the Meeting, the Company’s stockholders approved the Charter Amendment, which extends the date by which the Company must consummate its initial Business Combination from March 29, 2023 to December 29, 2023, subject to the approval of the Board of Directors of the Company. Stockholders holding 5,289,280 shares of common stock exercised their right to redeem their shares for cash at an approximate price of $10.33 per share of the funds in the Trust Account. As a result, on April 6, 2023, approximately $54,675,740 was removed from the Trust Account to pay such holders.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

References to the “Company,” “us,” “our” or “we” refer to Arogo Capital Acquisition Corp. The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our unaudited financial statements and related notes included herein.

 

Overview

 

We are a blank check company incorporated in June 2021 as a Delaware corporation whose business purpose is to effect a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses, which we refer to as our initial business combination.

 

Our Sponsor is Koo Dom Investment LLC, a Delaware limited liability company. The registration statement for our initial public offering was declared effective on December 23, 2021. On December 29, 2021, we consummated our initial public offering of 10,350,000 units at $10.00 per unit, with each unit consisting of one Class A ordinary share and one redeemable warrant, with each warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one Class A ordinary share at a price of $11.50 per share.

 

On December 29, 2021, simultaneously with the consummation of the Offering, the Company consummated the private placement of an aggregate of 466,150 Units (the “Private Placement Units”) to Koo Dom Investment LLC, our sponsor, at a price of $10.00 per Private Placement Unit, generating total gross proceeds of $4,661,500 (the “Private Placement”).

 

Following the closing of the initial public offering on December 29, 2021, $105,052,500 ($10.15 per unit) from the net proceeds of the sale of the units in the initial public offering and the private placement was deposited into a trust account, invested in United States “government securities” within the meaning of Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act with a maturity of 180 days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 promulgated under the Investment Company Act which invest only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations. Except with respect to interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account that may be released to us to pay our income or other tax obligations as described in the initial public offering, the proceeds will not be released from the trust account until the earlier of the completion of a business combination or the redemption of 100% of the outstanding public shares if we have not completed a business combination within the time required time period.

 

We have until December 29, 2023 to complete the initial business combination. If we are unable to complete our initial business combination within such 24-month period, we will: (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem the public shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the trust account including interest earned on the funds held in the trust account and not previously released to us to pay our taxes (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then outstanding public shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public stockholders’ rights as stockholders (including the right to receive further liquidating distributions, if any), subject to applicable law, and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of our remaining stockholders and our board of directors, dissolve and liquidate, subject in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) above to our obligations under Delaware law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. There will be no redemption rights or liquidating distributions with respect to our warrants, which will expire worthless if we fail to complete our initial business combination within the 12-month period (or up to 21-month time period).

 

Charter Amendment Regarding Extension and Share Redemptions

 

On March 24, 2023, the Company held a Special Meeting of Stockholders (the “Meeting”). At the Meeting, the Company’s stockholders approved the Charter Amendment, which extends the date by which the Company must consummate its initial Business Combination from March 29, 2023 to December 29, 2023, subject to the approval of the Board of Directors of the Company, provided the sponsor or its designees deposit into the trust account an amount equal to $0.0378 per share for each public share or $191,666, prior to the commencement of each extension period (the “Extension”). The Company filed the Charter Amendment with the Office of the Secretary of State of Delaware on March 28, 2023. At the Meeting, the Company’s stockholders approved the Charter Amendment extending the date by which the Company must consummate the initial Business Combination from March 29, 2023 to December 29, 2023, (or such earlier date as determined by the Company’s Board of Directors) (the “Extension Amendment Proposal”). Stockholders holding 5,289,280 shares of common stock exercised their right to redeem their shares for cash at an approximate price of $10.33 per share of the funds in the Trust Account. As a result, approximately $54,675,740 was removed from the Trust Account on April 6, 2023 to pay such holders.

 

Following the redemption and the related payment, the Company’s remaining shares of Class A common stock outstanding were 5,060,720. The Company deposited into the Trust Account $191,666 for the initial extension period (commencing March 29, 2023 and ending April 29, 2023).

 

The Company also made an amendment to the Company’s investment management trust agreement (the “Trust Agreement”), dated as of December 23, 2021, by and between the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, allowing the Company to extend the business combination period from March 29, 2023 to December 29, 2023, and updating certain defined terms in the Trust Agreement (the “First Amendment to the Trust Agreement”).

Proposed Business Combination

 

On April 25, 2022, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among Arogo, Arogo Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Arogo (“Merger Sub”), Eon Reality, Inc., a California corporation (“EON”), Koo Dom Investment, LLC, in its capacity as (“Purchaser Representative”), and EON, in its capacity as (“Seller Representative”). On October 6, 2022, the parties to the Merger Agreement entered into that certain First Amendment to the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Amendment”). The Business Combination agreement and related agreements are further described in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on April 26, 2022, and on October 7, 2022. We expect to continue to incur significant costs in the pursuit of our acquisition plans. We cannot assure you that our plans to raise capital or to complete the proposed Business Combination will be successful.

 

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, at the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement (the “Closing”), Merger Sub will merge with and into EON, with EON continuing as the surviving corporation (the “Surviving Corporation”).

 

Merger Consideration

 

As consideration for the Merger, the holders of EON securities collectively shall be entitled to receive from Arogo, in the aggregate, a number of Arogo securities with an aggregate value equal to (the “Merger Consideration”) (a) $550,000,000 minus (b) the amount of Closing Net Indebtedness (the total portion of the Merger Consideration amount payable to all EON Stockholders in accordance with the Merger Agreement is also referred to herein as the “Stockholder Merger Consideration”). Additionally, the Company shall make available to EON (x) up to $105,052,500 Million U.S. Dollars for working capital use and general corporate purposes, assuming no redemptions (the “Primary Capital”) and (y) the proceeds from any PIPE Investment, any other alternative PIPE Investment and any other Private Placements, subject to the Closing conditions. The closing of a PIPE investment is not a condition to closing of the Merger Agreement. There is no minimum cash condition to the closing of the Merger Agreement.

 

The Merger Consideration otherwise payable to EON stockholders is subject to the withholding of a number of shares of Arogo common stock equal to 3.0% of the Merger Consideration (the “Escrow Shares”) to be placed in escrow for post-closing adjustments (if any) to the Merger Consideration (the “Escrow Amount”), after the Closing, based on confirmed amounts of the Closing Net Indebtedness of EON as of the Closing Date. If the adjustment is a negative adjustment in favor of Arogo, the escrow agent shall distribute to Arogo a number of Escrow Shares of Arogo common stock with a value equal to the adjustment amount divided by the redemption price. If the adjustment is a positive adjustment in favor of EON, Arogo will issue to the EON stockholders an additional number of Escrow Shares of Arogo common stock with a value equal to the adjustment amount divided by the redemption price.

 

Related Agreements

 

Lock-Up Agreement

 

Simultaneously with the Closing, certain significant stockholders of EON will enter into lock-up agreements (the “Lock-up Agreements”) providing for a lock-up period commencing on the Closing Date and ending 12 months after such date on the Restricted Shares to be held by the Company Securities Holders (such period, the “Lock-Up Period” which may be extended from time to time by the Company).

 

Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation Agreement

 

Simultaneously with the Closing, certain significant stockholders of EON entered into non-competition and non-solicitation agreements (the “Non-Competition Agreements”), pursuant to which they agreed not to compete with Arogo, EON and their respective subsidiaries during the five-year period following the Closing and, during such five-year restricted period, not to solicit employees or customers or clients of such entities. The agreements also contain customary non-disparagement and confidentiality provisions.

 

15

 

  

Registration Rights Agreement

 

At the Closing, certain investors of Arogo will enter into a registration rights agreement with Arogo providing for the right up to three (3) demand registrations, piggy-back registrations, and short-form registrations with respect to the Merger Consideration shares.

 

Purchaser Support Agreement

 

In connection with entry into the Merger Agreement, Arogo, Purchaser Representative, and EON entered into a Purchaser Support Agreement pursuant to which the Purchaser Representative has agreed to vote its Company securities in favor of the approval of the Merger Agreement and the Business Combination and to take other customary actions to cause the Business Combination to occur.

 

Restrictive Covenant Agreement

 

Arogo, Purchaser Representative and certain of their respective stockholders (the “Purchaser Parties”) have entered into a Restrictive Covenant Agreement with EON and its affiliates for a period commencing on the Closing Date and ending on the fifth (5th) anniversary thereof (the “Restrictive Period”), wherein the Purchaser Parties shall not, without the prior written consent of Seller Representative, directly or indirectly own any interest in, manage, control, participate in, consult with, render services for or be or become engaged or involved in any Restricted Business subject to certain exceptions more fully described in the exhibit herein.

 

Voting Agreement

 

In connection with entry into the Merger Agreement, EON entered into Voting Agreements with certain significant stockholders of EON holding approximately 5% or more of the outstanding shares of EON (the “EON Stockholders”) pursuant to which the EON Stockholders have agreed to vote their securities in favor of the approval of the Merger Agreement and the Business Combination and to take other customary actions to cause the Business Combination to occur.

 

Arogo 2022 Equity Incentive Plan

 

At the Closing, the Arogo 2022 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2022 Equity Incentive Plan”) will provide for the grant of equity incentives up to a maximum of 10% of the shares of the Class A Common Stock outstanding at the time of effectiveness of the 2022 Equity Incentive Plan to the directors, officers, employees, consultants and advisors of Arogo.

 

For more information about the Merger Agreement, see our Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on April 26, 2022, and the prospectus/proxy statement included in a Registration Statement on Form S-4 that we filed with the SEC relating to the proposed Merger Agreement on October 7, 2022. Unless specifically stated, this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q does not give effect to the proposed Merger Agreement and does not contain the risks associated with the proposed Merger Agreement. Such risks and effects relating to the proposed Merger Agreement are included in the preliminary prospectus/proxy statement included in a Registration Statement on Form S-4, as amended, and filed with the SEC on February 13, 2023.

 

Registration Statement on Form S-4

 

The Company filed a Registration Statement on Form S-4 with the SEC on October 7, 2022, to register the issuance of the Company Common Stock that will be issued at the consummation of the Business Combination, the warrants exercisable for Company Common Stock that will result from the amendment of the Company’s public warrants at the consummation of the Business Combination and the Company Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such warrants. The Company filed an Amendment No. 1 thereto on February 13, 2023. We use the term “Arogo Form S-4” to refer to the original registration statement as amended by the first amendment and as it may be subsequently further amended.

 

Results of Operations

 

As of March 31, 2023, we have neither engaged in any operations nor generated any revenues. All activity for the period from June 9, 2021 (inception) through March 31, 2023, relates to our formation and the initial public offering. We will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of our initial business combination, at the earliest. We will generate non-operating income in the form of interest income on cash and cash equivalents from the proceeds derived from the initial public offering.

 

16

 

 

For the period from June 9, 2021 (inception) through March 31, 2023, we had a net income of $763,803, which was resulted entirely from formation and operating costs.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

On December 29, 2021, we consummated our initial public offering of 10,350,000 units at a price of $10.00 per unit, at $10.00 per unit, generating gross proceeds of $103.5 million. Simultaneously with the closing of our initial public offering, we consummated the private placement of an aggregate of 466,150 Units to Koo Dom Investment LLC, at a price of $10.00 per Private Placement Unit, generating total gross proceeds of $4,661,500.

 

The net cash used in operating activities for the three-month period ended March 31, 2023, was $284,832.

 

As of March 31, 2023, we had investments of $106,713,361 held in the Trust Accounts. On May 15, 2023, as a result of the stockholder redemptions described below under the heading Special Meeting and Aggregate Redemptions, we had $54,675,740 in the Trust Accounts. We intend to use substantially all of the funds held in the Trust Accounts, including any amounts representing interest earned on the Trust Accounts (less taxes paid and deferred underwriting commissions) to complete our initial business combination. We may withdraw interest to pay taxes. During the period ended March 31, 2023, we withdrew $287,818 interest earned on the Trust Accounts. To the extent that our capital stock or debt is used, in whole or in part, as consideration to complete our initial business combination, the remaining proceeds held in the Trust Accounts will be used as working capital to finance the operations of the target business or businesses, make other acquisitions and pursue our growth strategies.

 

As of March 31, 2023, we had cash of $195,987 outside of the Trust Accounts. We intend to use the funds held outside the Trust Accounts primarily to complete our initial business combination.

 

In order to fund working capital deficiencies or finance transaction costs in connection with our 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 would 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 Accounts to repay such loaned amounts but no proceeds from our Trust Accounts would be used for such repayment. Up to $1,500,000 of such loans may be convertible into units, at a price of $10.00 per unit at the option of the lender, upon consummation of our initial business combination. The units would be identical to the placement units.

 

We do not believe we will need to raise additional funds following the IPO in order to meet the expenditures required for operating our business. However, if our estimates of the costs of identifying a target business, undertaking in-depth due diligence and negotiating an initial business combination are less than the actual amount necessary to do so, we may have insufficient funds available to operate our business prior to our initial business combination. Moreover, we may need to obtain additional financing either to complete our initial business combination or because we become obligated to redeem a significant number of our public shares upon completion of our initial business combination, in which case we may issue additional securities or incur debt in connection with such business combination. In addition, we intend to target businesses larger than we could acquire with the net proceeds of the IPO and the sale of the placement units and may as a result be required to seek additional financing to complete such proposed initial business combination. Subject to compliance with applicable securities laws, we would only complete such financing simultaneously with the completion of our initial business combination. If we are unable to complete our initial business combination because we do not have sufficient funds available to us, we will be forced to cease operations and liquidate the trust account. In addition, following our initial business combination, if cash on hand is insufficient, we may need to obtain additional financing in order to meet our obligations.

If our estimate of the costs of identifying a target business, undertaking in-depth due diligence and negotiating a Business Combination are less than the actual amount necessary to do so, we may have insufficient funds available to operate our business prior to our Business Combination. Moreover, we may need to obtain additional financing either to complete our Business Combination or because we become obligated to redeem a significant number of our Public Shares upon consummation of our Business Combination, in which case we may issue additional securities or incur debt in connection with such Business Combination.

 

In connection with our assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with FASB ASU 2014-15, “Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity’s ability to Continue as a Going Concern,” we have determined that if we are unable to raise additional funds to alleviate liquidity needs as well as complete a Business Combination by March 29, 2023, (or until December 29, 2023 if we choose to extend) then we will cease all operations except for the purpose of liquidating. The liquidity condition and the date for mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. We plan to consummate a Business Combination prior to the mandatory liquidation date. No adjustments have been made to the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities should we be required to liquidate after March 29, 2023 (or December 29, 2023).

 

Special Meeting and Aggregate Redemptions

 

On March 24, 2023, the Company held a Special Meeting of Stockholders. At the Meeting, the Company’s stockholders approved the Charter Amendment, which extended the date by which the Company must consummate its initial Business Combination from March 29, 2023 to December 29, 2023, subject to the approval of the Board of Directors of the Company. Stockholders holding 5,289,280 shares of common stock exercised their right to redeem their shares for cash at an approximate price of $10.33 per share of the funds in the Trust Account. As a result, on April 6, 2023, approximately $54,675,740 was removed from the Trust Account to pay such holders. In connection with our business combination, the remaining stockholders will have an additional chance to redeem their common stock. If redemptions are high, we may have difficulty in having enough cash to close our business combination.

 

Extension Payment Deposit

 

On March 29, 2023, the Company caused to be deposited $191,666 into the Company’s Trust account for its public stockholders, representing $0.0378 per public share, allowing the Company to extend the period of time it has to consummate its initial business combination by one month from March 29, 2023 to April 29, 2023. On April 25, 2023, it caused to be deposited $191,666 into the Company’s Trust account for its public stockholders, representing $0.0378 per public share, allowing the Company to extend the period of time it has to consummate its initial business combination by one month from April 29, 2023 to May 29, 2023 (the “Extension”). The Extension is the second of nine-monthly extensions permitted under the Company’s governing documents.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Financing Arrangements

 

We have no obligations, assets or liabilities which would be considered off-balance sheet arrangements. 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 any off-balance sheet financing arrangements, established any special purpose entities, guaranteed any debt or commitments of other entities, or entered any non-financial assets.

 

Contractual Obligations

 

We do not have any long-term debt, capital lease obligations, operating lease obligations or long-term liabilities, other than an agreement to pay an affiliate of our Sponsor a monthly fee of $10,000 for office space, utilities, out of pocket expenses, and secretarial and administrative support. We began incurring these fees on December 29, 2021 and will continue to incur these fees monthly until the earlier of the completion of the business combination or our liquidation.

 

The underwriters are entitled to a deferred fee of $3,622,500. The deferred fee will become payable to the underwriters from the amounts held in the trust account solely in the event that we complete a business combination, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement.

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

 

Through March 31, 2023, we were not subject to any market or interest rate risk. The net proceeds held in the Trust Account have been invested in U.S. government treasury bills, notes or bonds with a maturity of 185 days or less, or in certain money market funds that invest solely in U.S. treasuries. Due to the short-term nature of these investments, we believe there will be no associated material exposure to interest rate risk.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

  

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer (together, the “Certifying Officers”), we carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Based on the foregoing, our Certifying Officers concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this Report.

 

We do not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all errors and all instances of fraud. Disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met. Further, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all disclosure controls and procedures, no evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures can provide absolute assurance that we have detected all our control deficiencies and instances of fraud, if any. The design of disclosure controls and procedures also is based partly on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

During the most recently completed fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2023, there was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

 

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

 

None.

 

Item 1A. Risk Factors

 

As a smaller reporting company, as defined in Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act, we are not required to provide the information required by this Item. Factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those in this Quarterly Report are any of the risks described in our Registration Statement filed with the SEC on February 14, 2023. Any of these factors could result in a significant or material adverse effect on our results of operations or financial condition. Additional risk factors not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also impair our business or results of operations. As of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, except as set forth below, there have been no material changes to the risk factors disclosed in our Registration Statement filed with the SEC on February 14, 2023, our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2022. We may disclose changes to such factors or disclose additional factors from time to time in our future filings with the SEC.

 

Unstable market and economic conditions and adverse developments with respect to financial institutions and associated liquidity risk may have serious adverse consequences on our business, financial condition and stock price.

 

The global credit and financial markets have recently experienced extreme volatility and disruptions, including severely diminished liquidity and credit availability, declines in consumer confidence, declines in economic growth, inflationary pressure and interest rate changes, increases in unemployment rates and uncertainty about economic stability. More recently, the closures of Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank and their placement into receivership with the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) created bank-specific and broader financial institution liquidity risk and concerns. Although the Department of the Treasury, the Federal Reserve, and the FDIC jointly confirmed that depositors at SVB and Signature Bank would continue to have access to their funds, even those in excess of the standard FDIC insurance limits, under a systemic risk exception, future adverse developments with respect to specific financial institutions or the broader financial services industry may lead to market-wide liquidity shortages, impair the ability of companies to access near-term working capital needs, and create additional market and economic uncertainty. There can be no assurance that future credit and financial market instability and a deterioration in confidence in economic conditions will not occur. Our general business strategy may be adversely affected by any such economic downturn, liquidity shortages, volatile business environment or continued unpredictable and unstable market conditions. If the equity and credit markets deteriorate, or if adverse developments are experienced by financial institutions, it may cause short-term liquidity risk and also make any necessary debt or equity financing more difficult, more costly and more dilutive. Failure to secure any necessary financing in a timely manner and on favorable terms could have a material adverse effect on our growth strategy, financial performance and stock price and could require us to delay or abandon our business plans. In addition, there is a risk that one or more of our financial institutions or other third parties with whom we do business may be adversely affected by the foregoing risks, which may have an adverse effect on our business.

 

A new 1% U.S. federal excise tax could be imposed on us in connection with future redemptions by us of the Public Shares.

 

On August 16, 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (the “IR Act”) was signed into federal law. The IR Act provides for, among other things, a new U.S. federal 1% excise tax on certain repurchases (including redemptions) of stock by publicly traded domestic corporations and certain domestic subsidiaries of publicly traded foreign corporations. The excise tax is imposed on the repurchasing corporation itself, not its stockholders from which shares are repurchased. The amount of the excise tax is generally 1% of the fair market value of the shares repurchased at the time of the repurchase. However, for purposes of calculating the excise tax, repurchasing corporations are permitted to net the fair market value of certain new stock issuances against the fair market value of stock repurchases during the same taxable year. In addition, certain exceptions apply to the excise tax. The U.S. Department of the Treasury has been given authority to provide regulations and other guidance to carry out, and prevent the abuse or avoidance of, the purpose of the excise tax legislation. The IR Act applies only to repurchases that occur after December 31, 2022. It is unclear at this time how and to what extent it will apply to future redemptions of the Public Shares.

Item 2. Unregistered Sale of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.

 

Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities

 

On December 29, 2021, we completed our initial public offering (the “Offering”) of 10,350,000 units (“Units”), including the issuance of 1,350,000 Units as a result of the underwriter’s full exercise of its over-allotment option. Each Unit consists of one share of Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Class A Common Stock”), and one redeemable warrant (“Warrant”), each whole Warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one share of Class A Common Stock at an exercise price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment, pursuant to the Company’s registration statement on Form S-1 (File Nos. 333-259338). The Units were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $103,500,000.

 

On December 29, 2021, simultaneously with the consummation of the Offering, the Company completed a private placement of an aggregate of 466,150 units (the “Private Placement Units”) at a price of $10.00 per Private Placement Unit, generating total gross proceeds of $4,661,500 (the “Private Placement”). A total of $105,052,500, comprised of the proceeds from the Offering and the proceeds of the Private Placement, net of the underwriting commissions, discounts, and offering expenses, was deposited in a trust account established for the benefit of the Company’s public stockholders.

 

Use of Proceeds from the Public Offering

 

On February 11, 2022, the Class A ordinary shares and Public Warrants included in the Units began separate trading.

 

Transaction costs amounted to $6,524,539 consisting of $1,811,250 of underwriting fees, $3,622,500 of deferred underwriting fees and $1,090,789 of other offering costs. As of March 31, 2023, we had cash of $195,987 held outside of the trust account established in connection with our initial public offering, and available for working capital purposes.

 

For a description of the use of the proceeds generated in the Initial Public Offering, see Part 1, Item 2 of this Quarterly Report.
