NOTE 1 — DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS
Organization and General
Mana Capital Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”)
was incorporated in Delaware on May 19, 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, 2022 and December 31, 2021,
the Company had not commenced any operations. All activity for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and for the period from May 19, 2021
(inception) through December 31, 2021 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 Initial Public Offering. The Company has selected December 31 as its fiscal year end.
Financing
The registration statement for the Company’s
Initial Public Offering (the “Registration Statement”) was declared effective on November 22, 2021. On November 26, 2021,
the Company consummated the Initial Public Offering (“IPO”) of 6,200,000 units at $10.00 per unit (“Units” and,
with respect to the common stock included in the Units being offered, the “Public Shares”), generating gross proceeds of $62,000,000,
which is described in Note 3.
Simultaneously with the closing of the
Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the sale of 2,500,000 warrants (the “Private Placement Warrants”) at a price
of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant for gross proceeds of $2,500,000 in a private placement transaction to Mana Capital, LLC (the “Sponsor”),
which is described in Note 4.
In connection with the Initial Public Offering,
the underwriters were granted a 45-day option from the date of the prospectus (the “Over-Allotment Option”) to purchase up
to 930,000 additional units to cover over-allotments (the “Option Units”), if any. On November 30, 2021, the underwriters
purchased an additional 300,000 Option Units pursuant to the partial exercise of the Over-Allotment Option. The Option Units were sold
at an offering price of $10.00 per Unit, generating additional gross proceeds to the Company of $3,000,000. Pursuant to the Second Amended
and Restated Subscription Agreement between the Sponsor and the Company, the Company issued the Sponsor a total of shares of Common
Stock in connection with the partial exercise by the underwriters of the Over-Allotment Option.
Trust account
Following the closing of the Initial Public
Offering on November 26, 2021, an amount of $62,000,000 ($10.00 per Unit) from the net proceeds of the sale of the Units in the Initial
Public Offering and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants in the Private Placement (as defined in Note 4) was placed in the Trust
Account. Following the closing of underwriters’ exercise of over-allotment option on November 30, 2021, an additional $3,000,000
of net proceeds was place in the Trust Account, bringing the aggregate proceeds hold in the Trust Account to $65,000,000.
The funds held in the Trust Account 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 completion of a Business Combination or (ii) the distribution of the Trust Account, as described
below.
Business Combination
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
Warrants, 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 $10.00 per
Unit sold in the Initial Public Offering, including proceeds of the Private Placement Warrants, 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 180 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 Stockholders”) with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Public
Shares either (i) in connection with a stockholder 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 stockholder approval of a Business Combination
or conduct a tender offer will be made by the Company. The Public Stockholders will be entitled to redeem their Public Shares for a pro
rata portion of the amount then in the Trust Account (initially anticipated to be $10.00 per 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 or rights.
All of the Public Shares contain a redemption
feature which allows for the redemption of such Public Shares in connection with the Company’s liquidation, if there is a stockholder
vote or tender offer in connection with the Company’s Business Combination and in connection with certain amendments to the Company’s
amended and restated certificate of incorporation (the “Certificate of Incorporation”). In accordance with the rules of the
U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “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. 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 second 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 will provide 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.
If the Company has not completed a Business
Combination within nine months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering, or up to 21 months if extended in accordance with the
terms of the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Combination Period”), the Company will
(i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business
days thereafter, redeem the Public Shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the
Trust Account, including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to pay 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), and (iii)
as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the Company’s remaining stockholders and
the Company’s board of directors, dissolve and liquidate, subject in each case to the Company’s 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 the Company’s warrants, which will expire worthless if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination
within the Combination Period.
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 Proposed 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 Proposed 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) $10.00 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 $10.00 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 Proposed 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.
Going Concern Consideration
The Company expects to incur significant
costs in pursuit of its financing and acquisition plans. 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 if the Company is unsuccessful in consummating an initial
Business Combination within the prescribed period of time from the closing of the IPO, the requirement that the Company cease all operations,
redeem the public shares and thereafter liquidate and dissolve raises substantial doubt about the ability to continue as a going concern.
The balance sheet does not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Management has determined that
the Company has funds that are sufficient to fund the working capital needs of the Company until the consummation of an initial Business
Combination or the winding up of the Company as stipulated in the Company’s amended and restated memorandum of association. The
accompanying financial statement has been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of
America (“GAAP”), which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern.
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 unaudited condensed financial statements are
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, and include all normal and recurring adjustments that management of the Company considers necessary
for a fair presentation of its financial position and operation results. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results to
be expected for any other interim period or for the full year. The information included in this Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction
with information included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, filed with the Securities
and Exchange Commission on March 31, 2022.
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 financial statements
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 financial statements and the reported
amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least
reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the
financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future
confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.
Cash
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 $380,615 and $526,625
and no cash equivalents as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 respectively.
Cash held in Trust Account
At
March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had $65,004,901 and $65,000,484 in cash held in the Trust Account, respectively. The
assets held in the Trust Account were held in money market funds, which are invested in U.S. Treasury securities.
The Company classifies its U.S. Treasury
and equivalent securities as held-to-maturity in accordance with ASC Topic 320 “Investments — Debt and Equity Securities.”
Held-to-maturity securities are those securities which the Company has the ability and intent to hold until maturity. Held-to-maturity
treasury securities are recorded at amortized cost on the accompanying balance sheet and adjusted for the amortization or accretion of
premiums or discounts.
Offering Costs associated with a Public
Offering
The Company complies with the requirements
of FASB ASC 340-10-S99-1 and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) Topic 5A — “Expenses of Offering.” Offering
costs of $397,431 consist principally of costs such as legal, accounting and other advisory fees incurred in connection with the Initial
Public Offering. Such, costs were charged to stockholders’ equity upon completion of the Initial Public Offering.
Warrants
The Company accounts for warrants as either
equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the warrant’s specific terms and applicable authoritative
guidance in Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) ASC 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity” (“ASC
480”) and ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”). The assessment considers whether the warrants are freestanding
financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, whether they meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and whether the warrants
meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the warrants are indexed to the Company’s
own common stock and whether the warrant holders could potentially require “net cash settlement” in a circumstance outside
of the Company’s control, among other conditions for equity classification. This assessment, which requires the use of professional
judgment, is conducted at the time of warrant issuance and as of each subsequent quarterly period end date while the warrants are outstanding.
For issued or modified warrants that meet
all of the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded as a component of equity at the time of issuance.
For issued or modified warrants that do not meet all the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded
as liabilities at their initial fair value on the date of issuance, and each balance sheet date thereafter. Changes in the estimated fair
value of the warrants are recognized as a non-cash gain or loss on the statements of operations. (See Note 9).
Common stock subject to possible redemption
The Company accounts for its shares subject
to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480 “Distinguishing
Liabilities from Equity.” Shares subject to mandatory redemption (if any) is classified as a liability instrument and is measured
at fair value. Conditionally redeemable shares of common stock (including shares of common stock that feature redemption rights that are
either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the Company’s
control) is classified as temporary equity. At all other times, shares are classified as stockholders’ equity. The Company’s
shares feature certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to occurrence of
uncertain future events. Accordingly, as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, common stock subject to possible redemption are presented
at redemption value of $10.00 per share as temporary equity, outside of the shareholders’ equity section of the Company’s
balance sheet. The Company recognizes changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and adjusts the carrying value of redeemable
common stock to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Increases or decreases in the carrying amount of redeemable
common stock are affected by charges against additional paid in capital or accumulated deficit if additional paid in capital equals to
zero.
Income Taxes
The Company complies with the accounting
and reporting requirements of ASC Topic 740 “Income Taxes,” which requires an asset and liability approach to financial accounting
and reporting for income taxes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed for differences between the financial statement
and tax bases of assets and liabilities that will result in future taxable or deductible amounts, based on enacted tax laws and rates
applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary,
to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.
ASC 740 also clarifies the accounting for
uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement
process for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position 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. ASC 740
also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim period, disclosure and transition.
In assessing realizable deferred tax assets,
management assesses the likelihood that deferred tax assets will be recovered from future taxable income, and to the extent that recovery
is not likely or there is insufficient operating history, a valuation allowance is established. The Company adjusts the valuation allowance
in the period management determines it is more likely than not that net deferred tax assets will or will not be realized. As of March
31, 2022, the Company determined that a valuation allowance should be established.
As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021,
the Company did not recognize any assets or liabilities relative to uncertain tax positions. Interest or penalties, if any, will be recognized
in income tax expense. Since there are no significant unrecognized tax benefits as a result of tax positions taken, there are no accrued
penalties or interest. Tax positions are positions taken in a previously filed tax return or positions expected to be taken in a future
tax return that are reflected in measuring current or deferred income tax assets and liabilities reported in the financial statements.
The Company reflects tax benefits, only
if it is more likely than not that the Company will be able to sustain the tax return position, based on its technical merits. If a tax
benefit meets this criterion, it is measured and recognized based on the largest amount of benefit that is cumulatively greater than 50%
likely to be realized. Management does not believe that there are any uncertain tax positions at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2021.
The Company may be subject to potential
examination by federal, state and city taxing authorities in the areas of income taxes. These potential examinations may include questioning
the timing and amount of deductions, the nexus of income among various tax jurisdictions and compliance with federal, state and city tax
laws. The Company’s management does not expect that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits will materially change over the
next twelve months.
The Company is incorporated in the State
of Delaware and is required to pay franchise taxes to the State of Delaware on an annual basis. The franchise tax of $50,000 and $124,434
was expensed as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 respectively.
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. As
of March 31, 2022, approximately $130,000 was over the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) limit.
Fair value of financial instruments
The fair value of the Company’s assets
and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements” approximates the carrying
amounts represented in the balance sheet, partially due to their short-term nature.
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.
Net Income (Loss) per Share
The Company complies with accounting and
disclosure requirements of FASB ASC 260, Earnings Per Share. In order to determine the net income (loss) attributable to both the redeemable
shares and non-redeemable shares, the Company first considered the undistributed income (loss) allocable to both the redeemable common
stock and non-redeemable common stock and the undistributed income (loss) is calculated using the total net loss less any dividends paid.
The Company then allocated the undistributed income (loss) ratably based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding between
the redeemable and non-redeemable common stock. Any remeasurement of the accretion to redemption value of the common stock subject to
possible redemption was considered to be dividends paid to the public stockholders. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company
has not considered the effect of the warrants sold in the Initial Public Offering in the calculation of diluted net income (loss) per
share, since the exercise of the warrants is contingent upon the occurrence of future events and the inclusion of such warrants would
be anti-dilutive and the Company did not have any other dilutive securities and other contracts that could, potentially, be exercised
or converted into common stock and then share in the earnings of the Company. As a result, diluted income (loss) per share is the same
as basic (income) loss per share for the period presented.
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 financial
statements.
NOTE 3 — INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING
Pursuant to the Initial Public Offering on
November 26, 2021, the Company sold 6,200,000 Units at a price of $10.00 per Unit, which does not include the 45-day option of the exercise
of the underwriters’ 930,000 over-allotment option. On November 30, 2021, the underwriters purchased an additional 300,000 Option
Units pursuant to the partial exercise of the Over-Allotment Option. The Option Units were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per Unit,
generating additional gross proceeds to the Company of $3,000,000. Each Unit consists of one share of Common stock, one-half of one redeemable
warrant (“Public Warrant”), and one right entitling the holder thereof to receive one-seventh (1/7) of a share of common stock
upon consummation of our initial Business Combination (“Public Right”). Each whole Public Warrant entitles the holder to purchase
one share of Common stock at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment (see Note 8).
The remaining 630,000 Option Units expired
on November 30, 2021. Transaction costs in connection with the Initial Public Offering and the issuance and sale of Option Units amounted
to $1,697,431 consisting of $1,300,000 of underwriting fees, and $397,431 of other offering costs.
Each unit has an offering price of $10.00 and
consists of one share of the Company’s common stock and one-half of one redeemable warrant and one right entitling the holder thereof
to receive one-seventh (1/7) of a share of common stock upon consummation of the initial Business Combination. The Company will not issue
fractional shares. As a result, the warrants must be exercised in multiples of one whole warrant. Each whole warrant entitles the holder
thereof to purchase one share of the Company’s common stock at a price of $11.50 per share, and only whole warrants are exercisable.
The warrants will become exercisable on the later of 30 days after the completion of the Company’s initial Business Combination
or 12 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering, and will expire five years after the completion of the Company’s initial
Business Combination or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.
All of the 6,500,000 public shares sold as
part of the Public Units in the Initial Public Offering contain a redemption feature which allows for the redemption of such public shares
if there is a stockholder vote or tender offer in connection with the Business Combination and in connection with certain amendments to
the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation, or in connection with the Company’s liquidation. In accordance
with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and its staff’s guidance on redeemable equity instruments, which
has been codified in ASC 480-10-S99, redemption provisions not solely within the control of the Company require common stock subject to
redemption to be classified outside of permanent equity.
NOTE 4 — PRIVATE PLACEMENTS
Simultaneously with the closing of the
Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the private sale (the “Private Placement”) to the Sponsor of an aggregate
of 2,500,000 Private Placement Warrants at a price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant ($2,500,000). Each Private Placement Warrant
is exercisable to purchase one share of common stock at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment.
A portion of the proceeds from the Private
Placement Warrants was added to the 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 Warrants held in the Trust Account
will be used to fund the redemption of the Public Shares (subject to the requirements of applicable law) and the Private Placement Warrants
will be worthless.
The Sponsor and the Company’s officers
and directors agreed, subject to limited exceptions, not to transfer, assign or sell any of their Private Placement Warrants until 30
days after the completion of the initial Business Combination.
NOTE 5 — RELATED PARTIES
Founder Shares
On June 22, 2021, the Sponsor received
1,437,500 shares of the Company’s Common stock (the “Founder Shares”) for $25,000. Subsequently, in September 2021,
the Company amended the terms of this subscription agreement to issue the Sponsor an additional 62,500 Founder Shares. In November 2021,
the Company issued the Sponsor an additional 50,000 shares of Common stock for no additional consideration, following which the Sponsor
held Founder Shares so that the Founder Shares will account for, in the aggregate, 20% of the issued and outstanding shares
after the Initial Public Offering. All share amounts have been retroactively restated to reflect this adjustment. In November 2021, the
Company amended the terms of the subscription agreement and agreed to issue the Sponsor up to an additional 232,500 Founder Shares, in
the event the over-allotment is exercised in full. On November 30, 2021 the Company issued the founder a total of shares of Common
Stock in connection with the partial exercise by the underwriters of the Over-Allotment Option. The remaining 157,500 shares of common
stock issuable pursuant to the Second Amended and Restated Subscription Agreement were not issued.
As of March 31, 2022, there were 1,625,000
Founder Shares issued and outstanding. The aggregate capital contribution was $25,000, or approximately $0.02 per share.
The number of Founder Shares issued was
determined based on the expectation that such Founder Shares would represent 20% of the outstanding shares upon completion of 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) six
months after the completion of a Business Combination and (B) subsequent to a Business Combination, (x) if the last reported sale price
of the 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 commencing after 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 June 11, 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 $. The Promissory Note was non-interest bearing and payable on the earlier of (i) December 11, 2021 or (ii)
the consummation of the Proposed Public Offering. The Company had an outstanding loan balance of $125,547, which was repaid in full as
of December 31, 2021.
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 $2,400,000 of the notes may be converted upon completion of a Business Combination into warrants at a
price of $1.00 per warrant. Such warrants would be identical to the Private Placement Warrants. 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, 2022, there was no amount outstanding under
the Working Capital Loans.
NOTE 6 — INVESTMENTS HELD IN TRUST
ACCOUNT
As of March 31, 2022, assets held in the Trust
Account were comprised of $65,004,901 in mutual funds which are invested in U.S. Treasury Securities with a maturity due as of June 28,
2022.
The following table presents information about the
Company’s assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis at March 31, 2022 and indicates the fair value hierarchy of

NOTE 7— COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Registration Rights
The Company will enter into a registration
rights agreement with its founders, officers, directors or their affiliates prior to or on the effective date of the Initial Public Offering
pursuant to which the Company will be required to register any shares of common stock, warrants (including working capital warrants),
and shares underlying such warrants, that are not then covered by an effective registration statement. The holders of these securities
will be entitled to make up to two 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. 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 the Initial Public Offering to purchase up to 930,000 additional Units to cover over-allotments, if any,
at the Initial Public Offering price less the underwriting discounts and commissions to the extent provided for in the underwriting agreement.
On November 30, 2021, the underwriters purchased an additional 300,000 Option Units pursuant to the partial exercise of the Over-Allotment
Option. The Company paid an underwriting discount of 2.00% of the gross proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and the sale of Option
Units or $1,300,000 to the underwriters at the closing of the Initial Public Offering and the sale of Option Units.
NOTE 8 — STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY
Preferred Stock — The Company
is authorized to issue 100,000,000 shares of preferred stock with a par value of $0.00001 per share. As of March 31, 2022, there were
no shares of preferred stock issued or outstanding.
Common Stock — The Company
is authorized to issue 300,000,000 shares of Common stock with a par value of $0.00001 per share. Holders of Common stock are entitled
to one vote for each share. As of March 31, 2022 there were 1,625,000 (excluding 6,500,000 shares subject to possible redemption) shares
of common stock issued and outstanding.
Rights — Except in cases where
the Company is not the surviving company in a Business Combination, each holder of a Public Right will automatically receive one-seventh
(1/7) of one share of common stock upon consummation of a Business Combination, even if the holder of a Public Right converted all shares
held by him, her or it in connection with a Business Combination or an amendment to the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate
of Incorporation with respect to its pre-business combination activities. In the event that the Company will not be the surviving company
upon completion of a Business Combination, each holder of a Public Right will be required to affirmatively convert his, her or its rights
in order to receive the one-seventh (1/7) of a share underlying each Public Right upon consummation of the Business Combination. The Company
will not issue fractional shares in connection with an exchange of Public Rights. Fractional shares will either be rounded down to the
nearest whole share or otherwise addressed in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law. As a
result, the holders of the Public Rights must hold rights in multiples of seven in order to receive shares for all of the holders’
rights upon closing of a Business Combination.
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 Initial 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 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 Common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants
is then effective and a current prospectus relating to those shares of 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 30 days after the closing of a Business Combination, the Company will use its commercially reasonable
efforts to file, and within 90 days following a Business Combination to have declared effective, a registration statement covering the
issuance of the shares of Common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants and to maintain a current prospectus relating to those shares
of Common stock until the warrants expire or are redeemed. Notwithstanding the above, if the 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 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; |
| · | 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 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. |
The redemption price for the warrants shall
be either (i) if the holder of a warrant has followed the procedures specified in our notice of redemption and surrendered the warrant,
the number of shares of common stock as determined in accordance with the “cashless exercise” provisions of the warrant agreement
or (ii) if the holder of a warrant has not followed such procedures specified in our notice of redemption, the price of $0.01 per warrant.
If the Company calls the warrants for redemption,
all holders that wish to exercise warrants can do so by paying the cash exercise price or on a “cashless” basis. If a holder
elects to exercise the warrant on a “cashless” basis, such a holder would pay the exercise price by surrendering the warrants
for that number of shares of common stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the product of the number of shares of common
stock underlying the warrants, multiplied by the difference between the exercise price of the warrants and the “fair market value”
(defined below) by (y) the fair market value. The “fair market value” shall mean the average reported last sale price of our
common stock for the 5 trading days ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which the notice of redemption is sent to the
holders of warrants. Alternatively, a warrant holder may request that we redeem his, her or its warrants by surrendering such warrants
and receiving the redemption price of such number of shares of common stock determined as if the warrants were exercised on a “cashless”
basis. If the holder neither exercises his, her or its warrants nor requests redemption on a “cashless” basis, then on or
after the redemption date, a record holder of a warrant will have no further rights except to receive the cash redemption price of $0.01
for such holder’s warrant upon surrender of such warrant. The right to exercise the warrant will be forfeited unless the warrants
are exercised prior to the date specified in the notice of redemption.
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 are identical
to the Public Warrants underlying the Units sold in the Initial Public Offering, except that the Private Placement Warrants and the Common
stock issuable upon the exercise of the Private Placement Warrants are not transferable, assignable or saleable until 30 days after the
completion of a Business Combination, subject to certain limited exceptions.
The Company accounts for the 5,750,000
warrants issued in connection with the Initial Public Offering (including 3,250,000 Public Warrants and 2,500,000 Private Placement Warrants)
in accordance with the guidance contained in ASC 815-40. The Company’s management has examined the public warrants and private warrants
and determined that these warrants qualify for equity treatment in the Company’s financial statements. The Company accounted for
the warrant as an expense of the Initial Public Offering resulting in a charge directly to stockholders’ equity.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S
DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Unless
the context requires otherwise, references to the “Company,” “we,” “us,” “our,” and “Mana”,
refer specifically to Mana Capital Acquisition Corp. and its consolidated subsidiaries.
The following discussion and analysis
of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto
contained elsewhere in this Report. Certain information contained in the discussion and analysis set forth below includes forward-looking
statements that involve risks and uncertainties.
Special Note Regarding
Forward-Looking Statements
This
Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (“Report”), including the section entitled “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.
Therefore, actual results may differ materially and adversely from those expressed in any forward-looking statements. Factors that might
cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed elsewhere in this Report, including under “Risk
Factors”, and in other reports the Company files with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), which can be accessed
on the EDGAR section of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s website at www.sec.gov, including the Company’s Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 (under the heading “Risk Factors” and in other parts
of that report).
The following
discussion is based upon our unaudited Financial Statements included elsewhere in this Report, which have been prepared in accordance
with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments
that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingencies. Actual results
may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. Factors that could cause or contribute to these differences
include those discussed below and elsewhere in this Report, and in other reports we file with the SEC, and in our most recent Annual Report
on Form 10-K. All references to years relate to the fiscal year ended December 31 of the particular year.
All forward-looking
statements speak only at the date of the filing of this Report. The reader should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements.
Although we believe that our plans, intentions and expectations reflected in or suggested by the forward-looking statements we make in
this Report are reasonable, we provide no assurance that these plans, intentions or expectations will be achieved. We disclose important
factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from our expectations under “Risk Factors” and “Management’s
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and elsewhere in this Report. These cautionary statements
qualify all forward-looking statements attributable to us or persons acting on our behalf. We do not undertake any obligation to update
or revise publicly any forward-looking statements except as required by law.
Overview
We were formed on May 19,
2021 for the purpose of engaging in a merger, stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or other
similar business combination, which we refer to throughout this report as our initial business combination or our “Business Combination”,
with one or more businesses or entities with one or more target businesses. Our efforts to identify a prospective target business will
not be limited to a particular industry or geographic region. We intend to utilize cash derived from the proceeds of our initial public
offering and contemporaneous private placement and our securities, debt or a combination of cash, securities and debt, in effecting a
Business Combination. The issuance of additional shares of common stock or preferred stock:
• may
significantly reduce the equity interest of our stockholders;
• may
subordinate the rights of holders of shares of common stock if we issue shares of preferred stock with rights senior to those afforded
to our shares of common stock;
• will
likely cause a change in control if a substantial number of our shares of common stock are issued, which may affect, among other things,
our ability to use our net operating loss carry forwards, if any, and most likely will also result in the resignation or removal of our
present officers and directors; and
• may
adversely affect prevailing market prices for our securities.
Similarly, if we issue
debt securities, it could result in:
• default
and foreclosure on our assets if our operating revenues after a Business Combination are insufficient to pay our debt obligations;
• acceleration
of our obligations to repay the indebtedness even if we have made all principal and interest payments when due if the debt security contains
covenants that required the maintenance of certain financial ratios or reserves and we breach any such covenant without a waiver or renegotiation
of that covenant;
• our
immediate payment of all principal and accrued interest, if any, if the debt security is payable on demand;
• our
inability to obtain additional financing, if necessary, if the debt security contains covenants restricting our ability to obtain additional
financing while such security is outstanding;
• our
inability to pay dividends on our common stock;
• using
a substantial portion of our cash flow to pay principal and interest on our debt, which will reduce the funds available for dividends
on our common stock if declared, expenses, capital expenditures, acquisitions and other general corporate purposes;
• limitations
on our flexibility in planning for and reacting to changes in our business and in the industry in which we operate;
• increased
vulnerability to adverse changes in general economic, industry and competitive conditions and adverse changes in government regulation;
and
• limitations
on our ability to borrow additional amounts for expenses, capital expenditures, acquisitions, debt service requirements, execution of
our strategy and other purposes and other disadvantages compared to our competitors who have less debt.
We
have neither engaged in any operations nor generated any revenues to date. We
expect to continue to incur significant costs in the pursuit of our acquisition plans. We cannot assure you that our plans to complete
a Business Combination will be successful.
We are an emerging growth
company as defined in the JOBS Act. As an emerging growth company, we have elected to delay the adoption of new or revised accounting
standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until those standards apply to private companies. As such,
our financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with public company effective dates.
Results of Operations
We have neither engaged in any
operations nor generated any revenues to date. Our only activities from inception through March 31, 2022 were organizational activities,
those necessary to prepare for our initial public offering, described below, and subsequently identifying a target business for a Business
Combination. We do not expect to generate any operating revenues until after the completion of our Business Combination. We generate non-operating
income in the form of interest income on marketable securities held in the trust account with Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company
(the “Trust Account”) after the initial public offering.
We are incurring expenses as a
result of being a public company (for legal, financial reporting, accounting and auditing compliance), as well as for due diligence expenses
in connection with completing a business combination.
For
the three months ended March 31, 2022, we had a net loss of $222,663 which
consisted of formation costs and operating expenses of $177,094 and a provision for franchise tax of $50,000, which was partially offset
by interest income on marketable securities held in the Trust Account of $4,419.
Liquidity and Capital
Resources
On November 26, 2021, we consummated
the initial public offering of 6,200,000 units at a price of $10.00 per unit, generating gross proceeds of $62,000,000. Simultaneously
with the closing of the initial public offering, we consummated the sale of an aggregate of 2,500,000 private warrants for a total purchase
price of $2,500,000 in a private placement to our sponsor. On November 30, 2021, we sold an additional 300,000 units to the underwriter
pursuant to the partial exercise of the over-allotment option at an offering price of $10.00 per
unit, generating additional gross proceeds to the Company of $3,000,000, or $65,000,000 in total.
Following the initial public offering
and the sale of the private placement warrants, a total of $65,000,000 was placed in the Trust Account located in the United States and
we had $900,000 of cash held outside of the Trust Account, after payment of costs related to the Initial Public Offering, and available
for working capital purposes. We incurred $1,697,431 in transaction costs, including $1,300,000 of underwriting fees and $397,431 of other
costs.
For the three months ended March
31, 2022, cash used in operating activities was $146,010. Net loss of $222,663 was affected by interest earned on marketable securities
held in the Trust Account of $4,417 and changes in operating assets and liabilities, which provided $146,010 of cash used in operating
activities.
As of March 31, 2022, we had cash
and marketable securities of $65,004,901 held in the Trust Account. We may withdraw interest to pay taxes. During the period ended March
31, 2022 we did not withdraw any interest earned on the Trust Account. We intend to use substantially
all of the funds held in the Trust Account, including any amounts representing interest earned on the Trust Account (less income taxes
payable), to complete our Business Combination. To the extent that our capital stock or debt is used, in whole or in part, as consideration
to complete our 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.
As of March 31, 2022, we had cash
held outside of the Trust Account of $380,615. We intend to use the funds held outside the Trust Account primarily to identify and evaluate
prospective acquisition candidates, perform business due diligence on prospective target businesses, travel to and from the offices, plants
or similar locations of prospective target businesses, review corporate documents and material agreements of prospective target businesses,
select the target business to acquire and structure, negotiate and complete a Business Combination.
In order to fund working capital
deficiencies or finance transaction costs in connection with an intended initial Business Combination, our founders, officers and directors
and their affiliates may, but are not obligated to, loan us funds as may be required. If we complete our initial Business Combination,
we may repay such loaned amounts 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 loaned amounts but no proceeds
from our Trust Account would be used for such repayment. Up to $2,400,000 of such loans may be convertible into working capital warrants
at a price of $1.00 per warrant at the option of the lender. The warrants would be identical to the private placement warrants issued
to our initial stockholders. The terms of such loans by our founders, officers and directors and their affiliates if any, have not been
determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such loans. Prior to the completion of our Business Combination, we do not
expect to seek loans from parties other than our founders, officers and directors and their affiliates 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.
We
do not believe we will need to raise additional funds in order to meet the expenditures required for operating our business. If our estimates
of the costs of undertaking in-depth due diligence and negotiating an initial
Business Combination is less than the actual amount necessary to do so, or we earn less interest on the funds held in the Trust Account
than anticipated, 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 consummate our initial Business Combination or because we become obligated to redeem
a significant number of our public shares upon consummation of our initial Business Combination, in which case we may issue additional
securities or incur debt in connection with such Business Combination. We do not have a maximum debt leverage ratio or a policy with respect
to how much debt we may incur. The amount of debt we will be willing to incur will depend on the facts and circumstances of the proposed
Business Combination and market conditions at the time of the potential Business Combination. At this time, we are not party to any arrangement
or understanding with any third party with respect to raising additional funds through the sale of our securities or the incurrence of
debt. Subject to compliance with applicable securities laws, we would only consummate such financing simultaneously with the consummation
of our initial Business Combination. In the current economic environment, it has become especially difficult to obtain acquisition financing.
If we are unable to complete our 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
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
We have no obligations, assets
or liabilities, which would be considered off-balance sheet arrangements as of March 31, 2022. We do not participate in transactions that
create relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, often referred to as variable interest entities, which would
have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements. We have not entered into any off-balance sheet financing
arrangements, established any special purpose entities, guaranteed any debt or commitments of other entities, or purchased any non-financial
assets.
Contractual obligations
We do not have any long-term
debt, capital lease obligations, operating lease obligations or long-term liabilities.
Pursuant to a Business Combination
Marketing Agreement, we have engaged Ladenburg Thalmann & Co. and I-Bankers Securities, Inc. as advisors in connection with our Business
Combination to assist us in holding meetings with our stockholders to discuss the potential Business Combination and the target business’s
attributes, introduce us to potential investors that are interested in purchasing our securities in connection with the potential Business
Combination, provide financial advisory services to assist us in our efforts to obtain any stockholder approval for the Business Combination
and assist us with our press releases and public filings in connection with the Business Combination. This agreement will provide that
we will pay Ladenburg Thalmann and I-Bankers Securities, Inc. the marketing fee for such services upon the consummation of our initial
Business Combination in an amount equal to, in the aggregate, 2.5% of the gross proceeds of our initial public offering. As a result,
Ladenburg Thalmann and I-Bankers Securities, Inc. will not be entitled to such fee unless we consummate our initial Business Combination.
Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of financial
statements and related disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets
and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and income and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results could materially
differ from those estimates. We have identified the following critical accounting policies:
Shares subject to redemption
We account for our shares
of common stock subject to possible conversion in accordance with the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”)
Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” Shares subject to mandatory redemption are classified as a liability
instrument and are measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable shares (including shares that feature redemption rights that are either
within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within our control) are classified
as temporary equity. At all other times, shares are classified as shareholders’ equity. Our shares feature certain redemption rights
that are considered to be outside of our control and subject to occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, shares subject to
possible redemption are presented at redemption value as temporary equity, outside of the shareholders’ equity section of our balance
sheets.
Recent accounting pronouncements
Management does not believe
that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on our
financial statements.
