Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report (including, without limitation, statements under the heading “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” includes forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”).

In addition, even if our results or operations, financial condition and liquidity, and developments in the industry in which we operate are consistent with the forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report, those results or developments may not be indicative of results or developments in subsequent periods. The forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report are based on our current expectations and beliefs concerning future developments and their potential effects on us. There can be no assurance that future developments affecting us will be those that we have anticipated.

Overview

We are an early-stage blank check company incorporated on January 22, 2021 as a Delaware corporation and 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. As discussed below under Recent Events, on June 17, 2024 we entered into a Business Combination Agreement (as defined below). We intend to effectuate our initial Business Combination using cash from the proceeds of our initial public offering and the sale of the private placement warrants, each of which entitles the holder to purchase one share of our Class A common stock at $11.50 per share (the “Private Placement Warrants”), our capital stock, debt or a combination of cash, stock and debt.

The issuance of additional shares of our common or preferred stock in our initial Business Combination:

Similarly, if we issue debt securities or otherwise incur significant indebtedness to finance our initial Business Combination, it could result in:

The Company had approximately $980,000 in cash and approximately $12,390,000 of negative working capital (excluding approximately $51,000 of taxes payable that will be paid from interest income earned on assets held in the Trust Account) at June 30, 2024. Further, the Company has segregated approximately $862,000 of cash for the payment of excise taxes on the 2023 redemptions of Class A common stock. Further, we are incurring, and expect to continue to incur, significant costs in the pursuit of an initial business combination. We cannot assure you that our plans to raise capital or to complete our initial business combination will be successful.

Recent Events

Business Combination Agreement

On June 17, 2024, the Company, Namib Minerals, an exempted company limited by shares incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands (“PubCo”) and a direct wholly-own subsidiary of The Southern SelliBen Trust, a registered New Zealand foreign trust (the “Company Requisite Shareholder”), Midas SPAC Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation and a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of PubCo (“SPAC Merger Sub”), Cayman Merger Sub Ltd., an exempted company limited by shares incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands and a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of PubCo (“Company Merger Sub”), and Greenstone Corporation, an exempted company limited by shares incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands (“Greenstone”), entered into a business combination agreement (the “Business Combination Agreement”). Greenstone is a gold producer, developer and explorer with operations focused in Zimbabwe.

Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, the parties thereto intends to enter into a business combination transaction (the “Proposed Business Combination” and, together with the other transactions contemplated thereby, the “Transactions”) by which, among other things, (a) Company Merger Sub is expected to be merged with and into the Company (the “Company Merger”), with Greenstone being the surviving entity of the Company Merger and becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of PubCo; and (b) immediately following the Company Merger, SPAC Merger Sub is expected to be merged with and into the Company (the “SPAC Merger” and, together with the Company Merger, the “Mergers”), with SPAC being the surviving entity of the SPAC Merger and becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of PubCo. Upon closing of the Mergers (the “Closing,” and the date on which the Closing occurs, the “Closing Date”) the Company and Greenstone each is expected to become a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of PubCo, and PubCo is expected to become a publicly traded company operating under the name “Namib Minerals,” and its ordinary shares and warrants are expected to trade on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the ticker symbols “NAMM” and “NAMMW,” respectively.

The Closing will occur on the first date following the satisfaction or waiver of all of the closing conditions, or at such other time or in such other manner as agreed upon by Greenstone and the Company in writing.

The obligations of the parties to consummate the Mergers and the Transactions are subject to the satisfaction or waiver (where permissible) at or prior to the Closing of the following closing conditions: (i) approval of the Transactions by the shareholders of PubCo, the Company, Company Merger Sub and Greenstone; (ii) the Registration Statement on Form F-4 having become effective under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”); (iii) PubCo’s initial listing application with Nasdaq will have been conditionally approved and, immediately following the Closing, PubCo will satisfy any applicable listing requirements of Nasdaq; (iv) no governmental authority will have enacted, issued, promulgated, enforced or entered any law or governmental order that makes the Closing illegal or otherwise prevents the Closing; (v) none of PubCo, Company Merger Sub, SPAC Merger Sub, Greenstone or any of the Greenstone’s subsidiaries will be in bankruptcy, receivership, administration, restructuring, corporate rescue or other similar proceedings, and no liquidator, administrator, restructuring officer or similar person will have been appointed, in each case under any applicable administration, scheme of arrangement, restructuring, receivership, corporate rescue, insolvency, bankruptcy, or reorganization laws; (vi) (a) the gross amount of cash available in the Trust Account following redemptions of Company public shares plus (b) the aggregate gross amount of proceeds from any permitted financing under the Business Combination Agreement that have been (or will be) funded at the Closing will be not less than $25.0 million; and (vii) other customary closing conditions set forth in the Business Combination Agreement.

Unless specifically stated, this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q does not give effect to the proposed Transactions and does not contain the risks associated with the proposed Transactions. Such risks and effects relating to the proposed Transactions will be included in a Registration Statement on Form F-4 that PubCo intends to file with the SEC relating to the Proposed Business Combination.

For more information about the Proposed Business Combination and the Business Combination Agreement, see the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on June 18, 2024.

Extensions of Time to Complete Business Combination, Related Redemptions of Shares of Class A Common Stock and Related Excise Tax

At a special meeting of stockholders held on September 29, 2023 (the “2023 Extension Meeting”), the Company’s stockholders approved the proposal (the “2023 Extension Amendment”) to amend and restate the Company’s certificate of incorporation to extend the date by which the Company must (i) consummate an initial Business Combination, (ii) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, and (iii) redeem or repurchase 100% of the public shares that was consummated on October 1, 2021, from October 1, 2023 to January 10, 2024 (or such earlier date as determined by the board of directors of the Company, the “Initial Extended Date”).

At a special meeting of stockholders held on January 10, 2024 (the “2024 Extension Meeting”), the Company’s stockholders approved the proposal (the “2024 Extension Amendment”) to amend and restate the Company’s certificate of incorporation to extend the date by which the Company must (i) consummate an initial Business Combination, (ii) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, and (iii) redeem or repurchase 100% of the public shares from the Initial Extended Date, January 10, 2024, to September 30, 2024 (or such earlier date as determined by the board of directors of the Company, the “Extended Date”). The Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides that, other than the withdrawal of interest to pay tax obligations, if any (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), none of the funds held in trust will be released until the earliest of: (a) the completion of the initial Business Combination, (b) the redemption of any public shares properly submitted in connection with a stockholder vote to amend the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation (i) 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 by the Extended Date, or such later date if stockholders approve an extension of such date, or (ii) with respect to any other provision relating to stockholders’ rights or pre-Business Combination activity, and (c) the redemption of the public shares if the Company is unable to complete the initial Business Combination prior to the Extended Date, or such later date if stockholders approve an extension of such date, subject to applicable law. The proceeds deposited in the Trust Account could become subject to the claims of creditors, if any, which could have priority over the claims of the Company’s public stockholders.

If stockholders were to approve an extension beyond the Extended Date, the Company would expect to receive a delisting notice from NASDAQ under their requirement that special purpose acquisition companies complete a business combination within three years of the effectiveness of its IPO registration statement. However, such delisting notice can be appealed and up to 180 days grace period given to the Company at the listing committee’s discretion.

On September 29, 2023, in connection with the 2023 Extension Meeting, stockholders holding 8,295,189 public shares exercised their right to redeem such shares for a pro rata portion of the funds in the Trust Account. As such, in October 2023, the Company redeemed 8,295,189 shares of public shares for approximately $86,171,000, or approximately $10.39 per share.

In January 2024, in connection with the 2024 Extension Meeting, stockholders holding 20,528,851 shares of Class A common stock exercised their right to redeem such shares for a pro rata portion of the funds in the Trust Account. As such, in January 2024, the Company redeemed 20,528,851 shares of Class A common stock for approximately $215,340,000, or approximately $10.49 per share.

Management has evaluated the requirements of the Inflation Reduction Act and the Company’s operations, and has recorded a liability of 1% of the amount of the October 2023 redemptions, approximately $861,000, as of December 31, 2023. This liability is recorded as a reduction to accumulated deficit as it is related to the capital stock of the Company. This liability will be reevaluated and remeasured at the end of such subsequent period until it is settled. Management is continuing to evaluate the requirements of the Inflation Reduction Act and the Company’s operations, with respect to the January 2024 redemptions and has concluded that substantial uncertainties exist as to whether such redemptions would result in additional liability at June 30, 2024 as such no amount of potential additionally liability has been recorded.

Non-Redemption Agreements

In September 2023, the Company and the Sponsor entered into non-redemption agreements (the “2023 Non-Redemption Agreements”) with twenty-one unaffiliated third-party investors in exchange for such investors agreeing not to redeem an aggregate of 25,688,054 public shares (“September 2023 Non-Redeemed Shares”) at the 2023 Extension Meeting. In exchange for the foregoing commitment not to redeem the September 2023 Non-Redeemed Shares, the Sponsor agreed to transfer to such investors an aggregate of 2,568,805 founder shares held by the Sponsor, promptly following the closing of the Company’s initial Business Combination if they did not exercise their redemption rights with respect to the September 2023 Non-Redeemed Shares in connection with the 2023 Extension Meeting and the 2023 Extension Amendment was approved and effected by the Company’s filing with the Secretary of the State of Delaware of the First Amendment to the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation.

The Company has estimated, with the assistance of valuation professionals, the aggregate fair value of 2,568,805 founder shares to be transferred pursuant to the 2023 Non-Redemption Agreements to be approximately $0.71 per founder share. The estimated fair value, approximately $1,825,000, was determined to be a deemed contribution to the capital of the Company from the Sponsor in the statements of stockholders’ deficit in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) Topic 5T, and a business combination cost in the statement of operations. Pursuant to the 2023 Non-Redemption Agreements, the Company agreed not to satisfy any of its excise tax obligations from the interest earned on the funds in the Trust Account.

In January 2024, the Company and the Sponsor entered into non-redemption agreements (the “2024 Non-Redemption Agreements”) with fourteen unaffiliated third-party investors in exchange for such investors agreeing not to redeem an aggregate of 5,112,264 public shares (“January 2024 Non-Redeemed Shares”) at the 2024 Extension Meeting. In exchange for the foregoing commitment not to redeem the January 2024 Non-Redeemed Shares, our sponsor agreed to transfer to such investors an aggregate of 1,022,453 founder shares held by our sponsor, promptly following the closing of the Company’s initial Business Combination if they did not exercise their redemption rights with respect to the January 2024 Non-Redeemed Shares in connection with the 2024 Extension Meeting and that the 2024 Extension Amendment was approved and effected by the Company’s filing with the Secretary of the State of Delaware of the Second Amendment to the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation.

The Company has estimated, with the assistance of valuation professionals, the aggregate fair value of 1,022,453 founder shares to be transferred pursuant to the 2024 Non-Redemption Agreements to be approximately $1.47 per founder share. The estimated fair value, approximately $1,500,000, was determined to be a deemed contribution to the capital of the Company from our sponsor in the statements of stockholders’ deficit in accordance with SAB Topic 5T, and a business combination cost in the statement of operations. Pursuant to the 2024 Non-Redemption Agreements, the Company agreed not to satisfy any of its excise tax obligations from the interest earned on the funds in the Trust Account.

Subscription Agreements

On October 13, 2023, the Company entered into a subscription agreement (the “Polar Subscription Agreement I”) with HCG, the Sponsor and Polar Multi-Strategy Master Fund (“Polar”), pursuant to which Polar agreed to make a $900,000 cash contribution to the Company (the “First Capital Contribution”) to cover working capital expenses of the Company in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth therein. Pursuant to the Polar Subscription Agreement I, the First Capital Contribution shall be repaid to Polar by the Company upon the closing of an initial Business Combination (the “Closing”). Polar may elect to receive such repayment (i) in cash or (ii) in shares of Class A common stock of the surviving entity in such initial Business Combination (the “Surviving Entity”) at a rate of one share of Class A common stock for each ten dollars ($10.00) of the First Capital Contribution. In consideration of the foregoing First Capital Contribution, the Company has agreed to issue, or to cause the Surviving Entity to issue, 0.9 of a share of Class A common stock of the Surviving Entity for each dollar ($1.00) of the First Capital Contribution funded as of or prior to the Closing. Pursuant to the Polar Subscription Agreement I, the Surviving Entity shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause any shares of Class A common stock issued to Polar pursuant to the Polar Subscription Agreement I to be registered on the first registration statement filed by the Surviving Company following the Closing, which shall be filed no later than 30 days following the Closing and declared effective no later than 90 days following the Closing. Upon certain events of default under the Polar Subscription Agreement I or if the Surviving Entity fails to file a registration statement to register the shares of Class A common stock issued to Polar within 30 days after the Closing and to have such registration statement declared effective within 90 days after the Closing, the Company (or the Surviving Entity, as applicable) shall issue to Polar an additional 0.1 of a share of Class A common stock for each dollar of the First Capital Contribution funded as of the date of such default, and for each month thereafter until such default of failure is cured, subject to certain limitations provided for therein. In the event the Company liquidates without consummating an initial Business Combination, any amounts remaining in the Company’s cash accounts (excluding the Trust Account) will be paid to Polar by the Company within five (5) calendar days of the liquidation, and such amounts shall be the sole recourse for Polar.

HCG agreed to purchase from Polar, and Polar agreed to transfer to HCG, effective upon execution of the Polar Subscription Agreement I, (i) 100,000 redeemable private placement warrants and (2) 37.5% of Polar’s right under its existing 2021 subscription agreement (entered into in connection with our initial public offering) to purchase up to 150,000 shares of the Class B common stock from the Sponsor, for an aggregate cash purchase price of $150,000.

On January 16, 2024, the Company entered into the Polar Subscription Agreement II with the Sponsor and Polar pursuant to which Polar agreed to make a $1,750,000 cash contribution to the Company (the “Second Capital Contribution”) to cover working capital expenses and certain potential excise tax obligations of the Company in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth therein. Pursuant to the Polar Subscription Agreement II, the Second Capital Contribution shall be repaid to Polar by the Company upon the Closing. Polar may elect to receive such repayment (i) in cash or (ii) in shares of Class A common stock of the Surviving Entity at a rate of one share of Class A common stock for each ten dollars ($10.00) of the Second Capital Contribution. In consideration of the foregoing Second Capital Contribution, the Company has agreed to issue, or to cause the Surviving Entity to issue, 70,000 shares of Class A common stock of the Surviving Entity (the “Subscription Shares”) to Polar as of or prior to the Closing. Pursuant to the Polar Subscription Agreement II, the Surviving Entity shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Subscription Shares issued to Polar pursuant to the Polar Subscription Agreement II to be registered on the first registration statement filed by the Surviving Company following the Closing, which shall be filed no later than 30 days following the Closing and declared effective no later than 90 days following the Closing. Upon certain events of default under the Polar Subscription Agreement II or if the Surviving Entity fails to file a registration statement to register the Subscription Shares issued to Polar within 30 days after the Closing and to have such registration statement declared effective within 90 days after the Closing, the Company (or the Surviving Entity, as applicable) shall issue to Polar an additional 0.1 of a share of Class A common stock for each one dollar ($1.00) of the Second Capital Contribution funded as of the date of such default, and for each month thereafter until such default of failure is cured, subject to certain limitations provided for therein. In the event the Company (1) liquidates without consummating an initial business combination or (2) consummates an initial business combination, the Company shall repay the Second Capital Contribution within 30 calendar days of the liquidation or within five (5) business days of the Closing (as applicable, the “Specified Period”). In the event that such Second Capital Contribution is not repaid in full within the Specified Period, Daniel J. Hennessy, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, has agreed (in his individual capacity) to purchase from Polar all of Polar’s remaining rights under the Polar Subscription Agreement II (excluding the right to receive the Subscription Shares, which shall remain with Polar) for a cash amount equal to the portion of the Second Capital Contribution not repaid by the Company.

April 1, 2024, the Company received proceeds of $1,750,000 under the Polar Subscription Agreement II.

The Company elected the fair value option to account for amounts received from the Polar Subscription Agreement I and Polar Subscription Agreement II. As a result of applying the fair value option, the Company recognizes the amounts received at fair value, with subsequent changes in fair value recognized as a change in fair value in the consolidated statements of operations. The fair value is based on prices or valuation techniques that require significant inputs that are both unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. These inputs reflect management’s own estimates about the assumptions a market participant would use in pricing the liability.

The estimated fair value of the Polar Subscription Agreement I was $3,798,000 at June 30, 2024, was determined by summing (1) the future cash payment discounted at a risk-adjusted discount rate, which is an income approach, and (2) 0.9 shares of Common Stock for each dollar of the 2023 Capital Contribution valued using the closing stock price, then adjusting such amount by the probability of an initial Business Combination. The significant unobservable inputs, or level 3 measurements, at June 30, 2024, included the probability of an initial Business Combination closing of 40%.

The estimated fair value of the Polar Subscription Agreement II would have been approximately $1,750,000 upon subscription at January 10, 2024 if it had been drawn down at that date and it was approximately $2,004,000 at June 30, 2024. The subscription was funded on April 1, 2024. The estimated fair value at issuance and at June 30, 2024, was determined by summing the future cash payment discounted at a risk-adjusted discount rate, which is an income approach, then adjusting such amount by the probability of an initial Business Combination. The significant unobservable inputs, or level 3 measurements, at June 30, 2024. included the risk-adjusted discount rate of 10% and probability of an initial Business Combination closing of 40%.

Amendment to Subscription Agreements and the Non-Redemption Agreement

In connection with entry of the Business Combination Agreement, the Company, beginning in June 2024 and continuing through the third quarter of 2024, the Sponsor and each of the Anchor Investors, and each of the investors parties to the 2023 Non-Redemption Agreements and the 2024 Non-Redemption Agreements (the “investor parties”) entered into amendments to the subscription agreements executed in connection with the IPO and the 2023 Non-Redemption Agreements and the 2024 Non-Redemption Agreements, respectively, the amendment amends the amount of Class B common stocks the Anchor Investor and the investors parties to the 2023 Non-Redemption Agreements and the 2024 Non-Redemption Agreements will purchase or receive, as applicable from the Sponsor at Closing. Part of the amount of Class B common stocks to be purchased will be tied to the Sponsor earnout as set forth in the Sponsor Letter Agreement, by and among the Company, the Sponsor and PubCo, dated June 18, 2024. Further, the amendment also provide that the Anchor Investors and the investors parties will enter into a registration rights and lock-up agreement, in the form included to the Business Combination Agreement, upon closing of the Business Combination.

Results of Operations and Known Trends or Future Events

We have neither engaged in any operations nor generated any revenues to date. Our only activities since inception have been organizational activities and those necessary to prepare for and consummate our initial public offering and, subsequent to completion of our initial public offering on October 1, 2021, identifying and completing a suitable initial Business Combination. Following our initial public offering, we do not and will not generate any operating revenues until after completion of our initial Business Combination, if at all. We currently generate non-operating income in the form of interest income on cash and investments after our initial public offering. Since our initial public offering, we have incurred increased expenses as a result of being a public company (for legal, financial reporting, accounting and auditing compliance), as well as for professional and consulting fees and travel associated with evaluating various initial Business Combination candidates, as well as costs in connection with negotiating and executing a definitive agreement and related agreements and proxy materials. Our expenses have increased, and will likely continue to increase, substantially since the closing of our initial public offering on October 1, 2021.

We account for the Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants issued in connection with our initial public offering as warrant liabilities and not equity. As a result, we are required to measure the fair value of the Warrants when they are issued and then at the end of each reporting period and to recognize changes in the fair value from the prior period in our operating results for each current period. Such amounts can be material and can be either other income or other expense. We account for all of the Class A common stock issued in our initial public offering as redeemable stock and not permanent equity and so we report negative stockholders’ deficit and expect to continue to do so.

The Company elected the fair value option to account for amounts received from the Polar Subscription Agreement I and Polar Subscription Agreement II. As a result of applying the fair value option, the Company recognizes the amounts received at fair value, with subsequent changes in fair value recognized as a change in fair value in the consolidated statements of operations. The fair value is based on prices or valuation techniques that require significant inputs that are both unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. These inputs reflect management’s own estimates about the assumptions a market participant would use in pricing the liability.

The Company accounts for the aggregate fair value of founder shares to be transferred pursuant to the 2023 Non-Redemption Agreements and the 2024 Non-Redemption Agreements as a deemed contribution to the capital of the Company from its Sponsor in the unaudited condensed statements of stockholders’ equity in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) Topic 5T, and as a business combination cost in the unaudited statement of operations.

General and administrative expenses — For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, we had a loss from operations of approximately $3,502,00 and $5,823,000, respectively, consisting of the costs of being a public company of approximately $247,000 and $486,000, respectively (including approximately $55,000 of proxy-related costs in the six months), compensation of approximately $162,000 and $324,000, respectively (approximately $80,000 and $160,000, respectively, of which is deferred), approximately $50,000 and $100,000, respectively, of franchise taxes, approximately $45,000 and $90,000, respectively, of administrative fees to our Sponsor, and approximately $2,997,000 and $3,324,000, respectively, of costs associated with our business combination and other costs.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, we had a loss from operations of approximately $2,173,000 and $3,217,000, respectively, consisting primarily of costs of being a public company of approximately $181,000 and $333,000, respectively, compensation of approximately $249,000 and $498,000, respectively (approximately $122,000 and $144,000 of which is deferred), approximately $50,000 and $100,000, respectively, of franchise taxes, approximately $45,000 and $90,000, respectively, of administrative fees to our Sponsor, and approximately $1,650,000 and $2,161,000, respectively, of costs associated with searching for a suitable business combination and other costs.

Other income (expense) — In addition to operating costs, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, we had other expense of approximately $1,523,000 and $3,256,000, respectively, representing primarily the costs associated with the change in fair value of: (i) our extension notes payable (approximately $1,236,000 and $3,152,000, respectively) and (ii) our warrant liabilities (approximately $929,000 and $1,673,000, respectively) as well as, in the six months ended June 30, 2024, the estimated fair value of founder shares provided as compensation to investors for entering into the 2023 Non-Redemption Agreements and the 2024 Non-Redemption Agreements of approximately $1,500,000 all partially offset by interest income of approximately $642,000 and $1,569,000 on our demand deposits in the Trust Account and, in the three months ended June 30, 2024, our operating account.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, we had other income of approximately $3,271,000 and $4,767,000, respectively, representing the decrease in fair value of our warrant liability during the periods of $1,300,000 and $186,000, respectively, and interest income of approximately $4,144,000 and 7,798,000, respectively, on our cash and investments in the Trust Account.

The change in the interest income is the result of market conditions as well as significant decreases in the Trust Account due to redemptions in September 2023 and January 2024.

Provision for income taxes — The provision for income taxes in the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, $123,000 and $336,000, respectively, results from taxable interest income offset by deductible franchise taxes. Since the Company’s operating expenses are considered non-deductible start-up costs or business combination expenses, they are not deductible for income tax purposes. Further, the change in value of our derivative warrant liabilities and our extension notes, as well as the estimated fair value of founder shares provided in 2023 Non-Redemption Agreements and the 2024 Non-Redemption Agreements do not result in taxable income or expense.

The provision for income taxes in the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, $840,000 and $1,610,000, respectively, results from the significantly higher taxable interest income in those periods prior to shareholder redemptions in October 2023 and January 2024. Since the Company’s operating expenses are considered non-deductible start-up costs or business combination expenses, they are not deductible for income tax purposes.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our liquidity needs prior to the completion of our initial public offering were satisfied through receipt of $25,000 from the sale of the founder shares and up to $500,000 in loans from our Sponsor under an unsecured promissory note, $195,000 of which was borrowed prior to, and then fully repaid at, the October 1, 2021 closing of our initial public offering. The net proceeds from: (1) the sale of our units in our initial public offering (including the additional units sold on October 21, 2021 pursuant to the partial exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option), after deducting offering expenses of approximately $990,000 and underwriting commissions of approximately $6,819,000 (excluding total deferred underwriting commissions of $11,933,000 at the time of our initial public offering), and (2) the sale of the Private Placement Warrants (including the additional Private Placement Warrants sold on October 21, 2021 in connection with the partial exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option) for a purchase price of approximately $10,819,000, was $343,940,000. Of this amount, approximately $340,930,000, which includes approximately $11,933,000 of total deferred underwriting commissions at the time of our initial public offering, was deposited into the Trust Account. The remaining approximately $3,010,000 will not be held in the Trust Account. The funds in the Trust Account have been held in an interest-bearing demand deposit account or invested only in U.S. government treasury bills with a maturity of 185 days or less or in money market funds that meet certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 and that invest only in direct U.S. government obligations.

We intend to use substantially all of the funds held in the Trust Account, including any amounts representing interest earned on the Trust Account (which interest shall be net of taxes payable), if any, to complete our initial Business Combination. We have made and will make withdrawals from the Trust Account to pay our taxes, including franchise taxes and income taxes. Delaware franchise tax is based on our authorized shares or on our assumed par and non-par capital, whichever yields a lower result. Under the authorized shares method, each share is taxed at a graduated rate based on the number of authorized shares with a maximum aggregate tax of $200,000 per year. Under the assumed par value capital method, Delaware taxes each $1,000,000 of assumed par value capital at the rate of $400; where assumed par value would be (1) our total gross assets divided by (2) our total issued shares of common stock, multiplied by (3) the number of our authorized shares. Based on the number of shares of our common stock authorized and outstanding and our total gross assets, our annual franchise tax obligation is expected to be capped at the maximum amount of annual franchise taxes payable by us as a Delaware corporation of $200,000. Our annual income tax obligations will depend on the amount of interest and other income earned on the amounts held in the Trust Account. We expect the only taxes payable by us out of the funds in the Trust Account will be income and franchise taxes. 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 Account will be used as working capital to finance the operations of the target business or businesses, make other acquisitions and pursue our growth strategies.

Prior to the completion of our initial Business Combination, in addition to our costs associated with operating as a listed public company, our principal use of working capital will be to fund our activities to identify and evaluate target businesses, perform business due diligence on prospective target businesses, travel to and from the offices or similar locations of prospective target businesses or their representatives or owners, review corporate documents and material agreements of prospective target businesses, structure, negotiate and complete an initial Business Combination.

In addition, we may pay commitment fees for financing, fees to consultants to assist us with our search for a target business or as a down payment or to fund a “no-shop” provision (a provision designed to keep target businesses from “shopping” around for transactions with other companies or investors on terms more favorable to such target businesses) with respect to a particular proposed business combination, although we do not have any current intention to do so. If we entered into an agreement where we paid for the right to receive exclusivity from a target business, the amount that would be used as a down payment or to fund a “no-shop” provision would be determined based on the terms of the specific business combination and the amount of our available funds at the time. Our forfeiture of such funds (whether as a result of our breach or otherwise) could result in our not having sufficient funds to continue searching for, or conducting due diligence with respect to, prospective target businesses.

In June 2023, the Sponsor loaned $200,000 to the Company. In October 2023, Polar made a capital contribution to the Company of $900,000. In January 2024, Polar agreed to make an additional capital contribution to the Company of $1,750,000, which contribution was made on April 1, 2024.

On September 29, 2023, in connection with the 2023 Extension Meeting, stockholders holding 8,295,189 shares of Class A common stock exercised their right to redeem such shares for a pro rata portion of the funds in the Trust Account. As such, on October 12, 2023, the Company redeemed 8,295,189 shares of Class A common stock for approximately $86,171,000, or approximately $10.39 per share. Management has evaluated the requirements of the Inflation Reduction Act and the Company’s operations, and has an excise tax liability of 1% of the redemption amount, approximately $861,000 accrued on its unaudited condensed balance sheet at June 30, 2024 and its balance sheet at December 31, 2024. This liability was recorded as a reduction to stockholders’ deficit as it is related to the capital stock of the Company. This liability will be reevaluated and remeasured at the end of such subsequent period until it is settled.

In January 2024, in connection with the 2024 Extension Meeting, stockholders holding 20,528,851 shares of Class A common stock exercised their right to redeem such shares for a pro rata portion of the funds in the Trust Account. As such, in January 2024, the Company redeemed 20,528,851 shares of Class A common stock for approximately $215,340,000, or approximately $10.49 per share. Management is continuing to evaluate the requirements of the Inflation Reduction Act and the Company’s operations with respect to the January 2024 redemptions and has concluded that substantial uncertainties exist as to whether such redemptions would result in additional liability at June 30, 2024. As such no amount of potential additionally liability has been recorded at this time.

Mandatory Liquidation, Liquidity and Going Concern:

The Company had approximately $980,000 in cash and approximately $12,390,000 of negative working capital (excluding approximately $51,000 of taxes payable that will be paid from interest income earned on assets held in the Trust Account) at June 30, 2024. Further, the Company has segregated approximately $862,000 of cash for the payment of excise taxes on the 2023 redemptions of Class A common stock. Further, we are incurring, and expect to continue to incur, significant costs in the pursuit of an initial business combination. These conditions indicate that the Company needs additional working capital. In addition, if the Company cannot complete a Business Combination before the Extended Date, September 30, 2024, or such later date if stockholders approve an extension of such date, it could be forced to wind up its operations and liquidate unless it receives an extension approval from its stockholders. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of time within one year after the date that the unaudited condensed financial statements are issued. The Company’s plan to deal with this uncertainty is to complete a Business Combination prior to the Extended Date, or such later date if stockholders approve an extension of such date, to receive working capital from its Sponsor and/or external financing sources to the extent necessary and to work with creditors to defer payments. There is no assurance that the Company’s plans to consummate a Business Combination, work with creditors to defer payments and continue to receive loans, if available, from its Sponsor and/or external financing sources will be successful or successful within the required timeframe. The unaudited condensed financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

We cannot assure you that our plans to raise capital or to consummate an initial Business Combination will be successful.

Our Sponsor, an affiliate of our Sponsor or our officers and directors may, but none of them is obligated to, loan us funds as may be required to fund our working capital requirements. Up to $1,500,000 of such loans may be convertible into Warrants at a price of $1.50 per Warrant at the option of the lender. The Warrants would be identical to the Private Placement Warrants issued to our Sponsor, our direct anchor investors and our other anchor investors. The terms of such loans by our Sponsor, an affiliate of our Sponsor or our officers and directors, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such loans. In June 2023, the Sponsor loaned $200,000 to the Company. Such loan bears no interest and may be converted to 133,333 Warrants at the option of the lender as described above. The Company has determined that the fair value of the conversion feature is immaterial and therefore the loan has been recorded at par value. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, there was $200,000 and $200,000 outstanding under the working capital loan.

On October 13, 2023, the Company entered into the Polar Subscription Agreement I with HCG, the Sponsor, and Polar, pursuant to which Polar agreed to make a $900,000, cash contribution to the Company to cover working capital expenses of the Company in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth therein and as further described in “—Recent Events—Subscription Agreements” above.

On January 10, 2024, the Company entered into the Polar Subscription Agreement II with HCG, Daniel J. Hennessy, the Sponsor, and Polar, pursuant to which Polar agreed to make a $1,750,000 cash contribution to the Company to cover working capital expenses of the Company in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth therein and as further provided in “—Recent Events—Subscription Agreements” above.

If we complete our initial Business Combination, we would repay amounts loaned under the Sponsor’s working capital loan and return the Capital Contribution made by Polar pursuant to the terms of the Polar Subscription Agreement I and II out of the proceeds of the trust account released to us. 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 amounts but no proceeds from our trust account would be used for such repayment.

We do not expect to seek loans from parties other than our Sponsor, Polar, an affiliate of our Sponsor or our officers and directors, if any, 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.

If our estimates of the costs of identifying a target business, undertaking in-depth due diligence and negotiating an initial Business Combination exceed our expectations, 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 initial Business Combination. In addition, we intend to target businesses with enterprise values that are greater than we could acquire with the net proceeds of our initial public offering and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants, and, as a result, if the cash portion of the purchase price exceeds the amount available from the Trust Account, net of amounts needed to satisfy redemptions by public stockholders, we may be required to seek additional financing to complete such proposed initial Business Combination. We may also obtain financing prior to the closing of our initial Business Combination to fund our working capital needs and transaction costs in connection with our search for and completion of our initial Business Combination. There is no limitation on our ability to raise funds through the issuance of equity or equity-linked securities or through loans, advances or other indebtedness in connection with our initial Business Combination, including pursuant to forward purchase agreements or backstop arrangements we may enter into following the consummation of our initial public offering. 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.

Off-balance sheet financing arrangements

As of June 30, 2024, 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 into any off-balance sheet financing arrangements, established any special purpose entities, guaranteed any debt or commitments of other entities, or entered into any agreements for non-financial assets.

Contractual obligations

At June 30, 2024, we did not have any long-term debt, capital lease obligations, operating lease obligations or long-term liabilities. In connection with our initial public offering, we entered into an Administrative Support Agreement with Hennessy Capital Group LLC, an affiliate of our Sponsor, pursuant to which the Company pays Hennessy Capital Group LLC $15,000 per month for office space, utilities and secretarial and administrative support.

In June 30, 2023, the Sponsor loaned $200,000 to the Company. Such loan bears no interest and may be converted to 133,333 Warrants at the option of the lender as described in “—Liquidity and Capital Resources— Mandatory Liquidation, Liquidity and Going Concern” above.

In October 2023, the Company entered into the Polar Subscription Agreement I with HCG, the Sponsor and Polar, pursuant to which the Company agreed to return the First Capital Contribution to Polar. Polar may elect to receive such repayment (i) in cash or (ii) in shares of Common Stock at a rate of one share of Common Stock for each ten dollars ($10.00) of the First Capital Contribution. The Company must also issue to Polar 0.9 of a share of Common Stock for each dollar ($1.00) of the First Capital Contribution funded as of or prior to the Closing. The terms and conditions of the Subscription Agreement are described in additional detail in “—Recent Events—Subscription Agreements” above.

On January 16, 2024, the Company entered into the Polar Subscription Agreement II with the Sponsor and Polar pursuant to which Polar agreed to make the Second Capital Contribution to cover working capital expenses and certain potential excise tax obligations of the Company in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth therein. Pursuant to the Polar Subscription Agreement II, the Second Capital Contribution shall be repaid to Polar by the Company upon Closing. Polar may elect to receive such repayment (i) in cash or (ii) in shares of Class A common stock of the Surviving Entity at a rate of one share of Class A common stock for each ten dollars ($10.00) of the Second Capital Contribution. In consideration of the foregoing Second Capital Contribution, the Company has agreed to issue, or to cause the Surviving Entity to issue, 70,000 shares of Class A common stock of the Surviving Entity (the “Subscription Shares”) to Polar as of or prior to the Closing. The terms and conditions of the Subscription Agreement are described in additional detail in “—Recent Events—Subscription Agreements” above.

Also, commencing on September 29, 2021, the date our securities were first listed on the Nasdaq Global Market, we have agreed to compensate each of our President and Chief Operating Officer as well as our Chief Financial Officer $29,000 per month prior to the consummation of our initial Business Combination, of which $14,000 per month is payable upon the completion of our initial Business Combination and $15,000 per month is payable currently for their services. Since January 1, 2022, we have been compensating a Vice President of HCG, in his capacity as an independent contract service provider to the Company, at the rate of $25,000 per month, $12,500 of which is paid currently for his services and $12,500 of which is payable upon the closing of our initial Business Combination. An aggregate of approximately $162,000 and $249,000, respectively, was charged for operations for the three months ended June 30, 2024. Deferred compensation – related parties includes approximately $1,159,000 under this obligation for the period from September 29, 2021 to June 30, 2024.

During September 2023, payments to the Company’s Chief Operating Officer ceased in connection with his resignation as an officer (but not as a director) of the Company. During August 2024, he resigned as a director of the Company.

During August 2024, payments to the Company’s Chief Financial Officer and to the independent contractor service provider to the Company (who is Vice President of HCG) ceased in connection with their resignations from the Company. If such former Chief Financial Officer and independent contractor service provider provide reasonable and timely cooperation to transfer their knowledge and duties as reasonably requested by the Company following their separation, they will remain entitled to receive their respective previously accrued deferred compensation (approximately $462,000 and $375,000, respectively, through June 30, 2024), payable upon closing of the Company’s initial Business Combination.

In connection with identifying an initial Business Combination candidate and negotiating an initial Business Combination, we may enter into engagement letters or agreements with various consultants, advisors, professionals and others in connection with an initial Business Combination. The services under these engagement letters and agreements can be material in amount and in some instances can include contingent or success fees. Contingent or success fees (but not deferred underwriting compensation) would be charged to operations in the quarter that our initial Business Combination is consummated. In most instances (except with respect to our independent registered public accounting firm), these engagement letters and agreements are expected to specifically provide that such counterparties waive their rights to seek repayment from the funds in the Trust Account.

Critical Accounting Estimates

The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with U.S. GAAP 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 financial statements, and income and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates.

In October 2023 and January 2024, the Company entered into Polar Subscription Agreement I and Polar Subscription Agreement II for which the Company received cash contributions to the Company of $900,000 and $1,750,000 to cover working capital expenses of the Company in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth therein. Such contributions shall be repaid upon closing of an initial business combination and contain various conversion or share issuance opportunities that make them complex financial instruments. The Company has adopted the fair value option in accounting for such agreements. The fair value option requires that a valuation be made of each instrument at each reporting date. Because there are limited observable inputs, such valuations are made using Level 3 estimates of value using unobservable inputs. Making such judgments of value are subjective and involves professional valuation skill. Because of that, the Company engaged valuation professionals to make such fair value assessments. As such, the fair value of the Company’s extension promissory notes is a critical accounting estimate. A key metric used to calculate fair value is the probability of the closing of a business combination. Since the initial October 2023 subscription agreement this valuation metric has varied from 9.7% at inception in October and again at December 31, 2024, then 14% at inception of the Polar Subscription Agreement II and 30% at March 31, 2024 and then 40% at June 30, 2024. The change from 9.7% at inception in October 2023 to 40% at June 30, 2024 had a $2,898,000 impact (increase) on the amount initially recorded at inception ($900,000) and on the Polar Subscription Agreement II the impact (increase) on the amount initially recorded at inception ($1,750,000) was approximately $254,000.

Management does not believe that the Company has any other critical accounting estimates.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and are not required to provide the information otherwise required under this item.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Disclosure controls are procedures that are designed with the objective of ensuring that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act, such as this Quarterly Report, is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time period specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls are also designed with the objective of ensuring that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our management evaluated, with the participation of our current chief executive officer and chief financial officer (our “Certifying Officers”), the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2024, pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) under the Exchange Act. Based upon that evaluation, our Certifying Officers concluded that, as of June 30, 2024, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

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

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
