NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note
1 - Description of Organization, Business Operations and Going Concern
Organization
and General
Senior
Connect Acquisition Corp. I (f/k/a Health Connect Acquisitions Corp. I) (the “Company”) is a blank check company incorporated
in Delaware on August 27, 2020. 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 an emerging growth company and, as such, the Company is subject to all of the risks associated with emerging growth companies.
As
of March 31, 2023, the Company had not commenced any operations. All activity for the period from August 27, 2020 (inception) through
March 31, 2023, relates to the Company’s formation and the initial public offering (the “Initial Public Offering”)
described below, and since the Initial Public Offering, search for an initial Business Combination. The Company will not generate any
operating revenues until after the completion of its initial Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company generates non-operating
income in the form of interest income on investments held in a trust account from the proceeds derived from the Initial Public Offering.
Sponsor
and Financing
The
Company’s sponsor is Health Connect Acquisitions Holdings LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Sponsor”).
The registration statement for the Company’s Initial Public Offering was declared effective on December 10, 2020. On December 15,
2020, the Company consummated its Initial Public Offering of 41,400,000 units (the “Units” and, with respect to the Class
A common stock included in the Units being offered, the “Public Shares”), including 5,400,000 additional Units to cover over-allotments
(the “Over-Allotment Units”), at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $414.0 million, and incurring offering costs
of approximately $23.3 million, inclusive of approximately $14.5 million in deferred underwriting commissions (Note 5).
Simultaneously
with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the private placement (“Private Placement”) of 10,280,000
warrants (each, a “Private Placement Warrant” and collectively, the “Private Placement Warrants”) at a price
of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant to the Sponsor, generating proceeds of approximately $10.3 million (Note 4).
Trust
Account
Upon
the closing of the Initial Public Offering and the Private Placement, $414.0 million ($10.00 per Unit) of the net proceeds of the Initial
Public Offering and certain portion of the proceeds of the Private Placement was held in a trust account (“Trust Account”)
located in the United States with Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company acting as trustee, and invested only in U.S. government
treasury obligations with a maturity of 185 days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the
Investment Company Act 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), which will be invested only in direct U.S. government
treasury obligations, as determined by the Company, until the earlier of: (i) the completion of a Business Combination and (ii) the distribution
of the Trust Account as described below.
Initial
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 the 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 an initial Business Combination 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 (excluding the deferred underwriting commissions and taxes payable on the
interest earned on the Trust Account). However, 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.
The
Company will provide holders of the Public Shares (the “Public Stockholders”) with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion
of their Public Shares upon the completion of a Business Combination either (i) in connection with a stockholder meeting called to approve
the Business Combination or (ii) by means of a tender offer. 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, solely in its discretion. The Public Stockholders will
be entitled to redeem their Public Shares for a pro rata portion of the amount then held in the Trust Account (initially anticipated
to be $10.00 per Public Share), calculated as of two business days prior to the initial Business Combination, including interest earned
on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay the Company’s taxes, net of taxes payable.
The per-share amount to be distributed to Public Stockholders who redeem their Public Shares will not be reduced by the deferred underwriting
commissions the Company will pay to the underwriter (as discussed in Note 5). These Public Shares are recorded at a redemption value
and classified as temporary equity upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards
Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities
from Equity.” The Company will proceed with a Business Combination if a majority of the shares voted are voted in favor of the
Business Combination. The Company will not redeem the Public Shares in an amount that would cause its net tangible assets to be less
than $5,000,001. If a stockholder vote is not required by applicable law or stock exchange rule and the Company does not decide to hold
a stockholder vote for business or other reasons, the Company will, pursuant to its amended and restated certificate of incorporation
(the “Certificate of Incorporation”), conduct the redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules of the U.S. Securities and
Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and file tender offer documents with the SEC prior to completing a Business Combination. If,
however, stockholder approval of the transaction is required by applicable law or stock exchange rule, or the Company decides to obtain
stockholder approval for business or 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. 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. If the Company
seeks stockholder approval in connection with a Business Combination, the initial stockholders (as defined below) agreed to vote any
Founder Shares (as defined below in Note 4) and any Public Shares held by them in favor of a Business Combination. In addition, the initial
stockholders agreed to waive their redemption rights with respect to any Founder Shares and any Public Shares held by them in connection
with the completion of a Business Combination.
The
Certificate of Incorporation provides that a Public Stockholder, together with any affiliate of such stockholder or any other person
with whom such stockholder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined under Section 13 of the Exchange Act ), will
be restricted from redeeming its shares with respect to more than an aggregate of 15% or more of the Public Shares, without the prior
consent of the Company.
The
Sponsor and the Company’s officers and directors (the “initial stockholders”) agreed, pursuant to a letter agreement
with the Company, that they will not propose any amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation (A) to modify the substance or timing
of the Company’s obligation to allow redemption in connection with the initial Business Combination or to redeem 100% of the Public
Shares if the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period (as defined below) or (B) with respect to
any other provision relating to stockholders’ rights or pre-initial Business Combination activity, unless the Company provides
the Public Stockholders with the opportunity to redeem their Public Shares upon approval of any such amendment at a per-share price,
payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest (which interest shall be net
of taxes payable) divided by the number of then outstanding Public Shares.
If
the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination by December 15, 2023, or such earlier date as determined by the Company’s
board of directors (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 the Company to pay its 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 remaining stockholders and the board of directors, liquidate and dissolve,
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.
On December 12, 2022, the
Company filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware an amendment (the “Extension Amendment”) to the Company’s
amended and restated certificate of incorporation to change the date by which it must consummate a Business Combination to December
15, 2023 from December 15, 2022, 24 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering to the Combination Period. The Company’s
stockholders approved the Extension Amendment at a special meeting of the stockholders of the Company (the “Special Meeting”)
on December 9, 2022. In connection with the Special Meeting, stockholders holding 40,171,206 Public Shares properly exercised their right
to redeem their shares for cash at a redemption price of approximately $10.10 per share, for an aggregate redemption amount of approximately
$405.8 million. Following such redemptions, approximately $12.4 million was left in trust and 1,228,794 Public Shares remained outstanding.
The
initial stockholders agreed to waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to any Founder Shares
held by them if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period. However, if the initial stockholders
acquired Public Shares in or after the Initial Public Offering, they are entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account
with respect to such Public Shares if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period. The underwriter
agreed to waive its rights to the deferred underwriting commission (see Note 5) held in the Trust Account in the event the Company does
not complete a Business Combination within in 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 residual assets remaining available for distribution (including Trust Account assets)
will be only, or less than, $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 (except for the Company’s independent registered public accounting
firm) 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 (a “Target”), reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account to below the lesser of (i) $10.00
per Public Share and (ii) the actual 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, less taxes payable, provided that such
liability will not apply to any claims by a third party or Target that executed a waiver of any and all rights to the monies held in
the Trust Account nor will it apply to any claims under the Company’s indemnity of the underwriter of the Initial Public Offering
against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). Moreover,
in the event that an executed waiver is deemed to be unenforceable against a third party, then 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, 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.
Liquidity,
Capital Resources and Going Concern
As
of March 31, 2023, the Company had approximately $113,000 in its operating bank account and a working capital deficit of approximately
$1.5 million, not taking into account tax obligations of approximately $260,000 that may be paid from income earned on investments held
in Trust Account, and approximately $1.8 million outstanding under the note payable- related party.
The Company’s liquidity needs prior to the consummation of the
Initial Public Offering were satisfied through the proceeds of $25,000 from the Sponsor to purchase Founders Shares, and loan proceeds
from the Sponsor of approximately $139,000 under the Note (as defined in Note 4). The Company repaid the Note in full on December 16,
2020. Subsequent to the consummation of the Initial Public Offering, the Company’s liquidity has been satisfied through certain
portion of proceeds from the consummation of the Private Placement held outside of the Trust Account and borrowings from the Company’s
Sponsor. In addition, in order to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor may, but is not obligated
to, provide the Company with Working Capital Loans as more fully described and defined in Note 4. Other than the Post-IPO Promissory Note,
there were no Working Capital Loans outstanding as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022.
On
April 14, 2022, the Company formalized prior borrowings and entered into a promissory note with the Sponsor, pursuant to which the Company
may borrow up to an aggregate principal amount of $3.0 million (the “Post-IPO Promissory Note”). Through March 31, 2023,
the Company borrowed approximately $1.8 million in cash under the Post-IPO Promissory Note, with $1.2 million principal balance unutilized.
The Post-IPO Promissory Note is non-interest bearing and due on the earlier of December 15, 2023 and the date on which the Company consummates
its initial business combination. If the Company completes a business combination, it would be required to repay such additional loaned
amounts, without interest, upon consummation of the business combination. In the event that a business combination does not close, the
Company may use a portion of the working capital held outside the Trust Account to repay such additional loaned amounts but no proceeds
from the Trust Account would be used for such repayment.
The
Company may need to raise additional capital through loans or additional investments from its Sponsor, an affiliate of the Sponsor, or
its officers or directors. The Company’s officers, directors and Sponsor, or their affiliates, may, but are not obligated to, loan
the Company funds, from time to time or at any time, in whatever amount they deem reasonable in their sole discretion, to meet the Company’s
working capital needs. Accordingly, the Company may not be able to obtain additional financing. If the Company is unable to raise additional
capital, it may be required to take additional measures to conserve liquidity, which could include, but not necessarily be limited to,
curtailing operations, suspending the pursuit of a potential transaction, reducing overhead expenses, and extending the terms and due
dates of certain accrued expenses and other liabilities. The Company cannot provide any assurance that new financing will be available
to it on commercially acceptable terms, if at all.
Based
upon the analysis above, management has determined that the above conditions indicate that it may be probable that the Company would
not be able to meet its obligations within one year after the date that the unaudited condensed financial statements are available to
be issued. In connection with our assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with the FASB ASC Topic 205-40, “Presentation
of Financial Statements - Going Concern,” the Company has determined that the liquidation condition, mandatory liquidation and
subsequent dissolution raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. No adjustments have
been made to the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities should the Company be required to liquidate after December 15, 2023. The unaudited
condensed financial statements do not include any adjustment that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going
concern.

include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal accruals)
considered for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2023 are not necessarily
indicative of the results that may be expected for the period ending December 31, 2023 or any future period.
The
accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto
included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on April 14, 2023.
Emerging
Growth Company
The
Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart Our
Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”), and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements
that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required
to comply with the independent registered public accounting firm attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced
disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements
of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and 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 Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) are
required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that an emerging growth 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 an 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 unaudited condensed financial statements with another public company that is neither an emerging
growth company nor an emerging growth company that has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because
of the potential differences in accounting standards used.
Use
of Estimates
The
preparation of unaudited condensed financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the Company’s management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the
date of the unaudited condensed financial statements. Making significant 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 unaudited condensed financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the
near term due to one or more future confirming events. One of the more significant accounting estimates included in these unaudited condensed
financial statements is the determination of the fair value of the warrant liabilities. Accordingly, the actual results could differ
significantly from those estimates.
Cash
and Cash Equivalents
The
Company considers all short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.
The Company had no cash equivalents as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022.
Cash
and Investments Held in Trust Account
With
respect to the regulation of special purpose acquisition companies (“SPACs”) like the Company, on March 30, 2022, the SEC
issued proposed rules relating to, among other items, the extent to which SPACs could become subject to regulation under the Investment
Company Act. The proposal is consistent with less formal positions recently taken by the staff of the SEC. To mitigate the risk of being
viewed as operating an unregistered investment company, on December 13, 2022, the Company instructed Continental Stock Transfer &
Trust Company, the trustee with respect to the Trust Account, to cease holding securities in the Trust Account, to liquidate the securities
held in the Trust Account and thereafter to hold all funds in the Trust Account in cash (i.e., in one or more bank accounts) until the
earlier of consummation of a Business Combination and liquidation of the Company. Accordingly, the Trust Account has ceased to be invested
or otherwise to earn more than minimal interest, if any. This means that the amount available for redemption will not meaningfully increase
in the future, if at all.
Previously,
and as of December 13, 2021, the Company’s portfolio of investments held in the Trust Account was comprised of U.S. government
securities, within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act, with a maturity of 185 days or less. When
the Company’s investments held in the Trust Account are comprised of U.S. government securities, the investments are classified
as trading securities. Trading securities is presented on the condensed balance sheets at fair value at the end of each reporting period.
Gains and losses resulting from the change in fair value of these securities are included in net gain from investments held in Trust
Account in the accompanying condensed statements of operations. The estimated fair values of investments held in the Trust Account are
determined using available market information.
Concentration
of Credit Risk
Financial
instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash accounts in a financial institution,
which, at times, may exceed the Federal Depository Insurance Coverage limits of $250,000, and investments held in Trust Account. The
Company has not experienced losses on these accounts and management believes the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such
accounts.
Fair
Value of Financial Instruments
The
fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities which qualify as financial instruments under the FASB ASC Topic 820, “Fair
Value Measurements,” equal or approximate the carrying amounts represented in the condensed balance sheets.
Fair
Value Measurement
Fair
value is defined as the price that would be received for sale of an asset or paid for transfer of a liability, in an orderly transaction
between market participants at the measurement date. GAAP establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs
used in measuring fair value.
The
hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements)
and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). These tiers consist of:
| ● | Level
1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets; |
| ● | Level
2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable such as quoted prices
for similar instruments in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and |
| ● | Level
3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions,
such as valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable. |
In
some circumstances, the inputs used to measure fair value might be categorized within different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In
those instances, the fair value measurement is categorized in its entirety in the fair value hierarchy based on the lowest level input
that is significant to the fair value measurement.
Derivative
Warrant Liabilities
The
Company does not use derivative instruments to hedge exposures to cash flow, market, or foreign currency risks. The Company evaluates
all of its financial instruments, including issued stock purchase warrants, to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain
features that qualify as embedded derivatives, pursuant to ASC 480 and FASB ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging” (“ASC
815”). The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as
equity, is re-assessed at the end of each reporting period.
The
Company accounts for its warrants issued in connection with the Initial Public Offering and the Private Placement Warrants as derivative
warrant liabilities in accordance with ASC 815. Accordingly, the Company recognizes the warrant instruments as liabilities at fair value
and adjust the instruments to fair value at each reporting period. The liabilities are subject to re-measurement at each condensed balance
sheet date until exercised, and any change in fair value is recognized in our condensed statements of operations. The fair value of warrants
issued in connection with the Private Placement have been estimated using a modified Black-Scholes model at each condensed balance sheet
date. The fair value of the warrants issued in connection with the Initial Public Offering was initially measured using a Monte-Carlo
simulation and subsequently been measured at each measurement date based on the listed trading price of such warrants when separately
listed and traded in February 2021. The determination of the fair value of the warrant liability may be subject to change as more current
information becomes available and accordingly the actual results could differ significantly. Derivative warrant liabilities are classified
as non-current liabilities as their liquidation is not reasonably expected to require the use of current assets or require the creation
of current liabilities.
Class
A Common Stock Subject to Possible Redemption
The
shares of Class A common stock subject to mandatory redemption (if any) are classified as liability instruments and are measured at fair
value. Conditionally redeemable shares of Class A common stock (including shares of Class A 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) are classified as temporary equity. At all other times, shares of Class A common stock are classified as stockholders’
equity. The Company’s Class A common stock features certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company’s
control and subject to occurrence of uncertain future events. In connection with the Special Meeting, in December 2022, stockholders
holding 40,171,206 Public Shares redeemed their shares for cash. Accordingly, as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, 1,228,794 shares
of Class A common stock subject to possible redemption, respectively, are presented at redemption value as temporary equity, outside
of the stockholders’ deficit section of the Company’s condensed balance sheets.
Under
ASC 480-10-S99, the Company has elected to recognize changes in the redemption value immediately as they occur and adjust the carrying
value of the security to equal the redemption value at the end of the reporting period. This method would view the end of the reporting
period as if it were also the redemption date of the security. Effective with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company
recognized the re-measurement from initial book value to redemption amount, which resulted in charges against additional paid-in capital
(to the extent available) and accumulated deficit.
Offering
Costs Associated with the Initial Public Offering
Offering
costs consisted of legal, accounting, underwriting fees and other costs incurred through the Initial Public Offering that were directly
related to the Initial Public Offering. Offering costs are allocated to the separable financial instruments issued in the Initial Public
Offering based on a relative fair value basis, compared to total proceeds received. Offering costs associated with warrant liabilities
are expensed as incurred, presented as non-operating expenses in the condensed statements of operations. Offering costs associated with
the Public Shares were charged against the carrying value of the Class A common stock upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering.
The Company classifies deferred underwriting commissions as non-current liabilities as their liquidation is not reasonably expected to
require the use of current assets or require the creation of current liabilities.
Income
Taxes
The
Company’s taxable income primarily consists of interest income on the Trust Account. The Company’s general and administrative
expenses are generally considered start-up costs and are not currently deductible.
The Company follows the asset
and liability method of accounting for income taxes under FASB ASC 740, “Income Taxes.” Deferred tax assets and liabilities
are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts
of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax
rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The
effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that included the enactment
date. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. Our effective
tax rate was (53.1%) and 0.00% for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The effective tax rate differs from the
statutory tax rate of 21% for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, due to changes in fair value in warrant liabilities and
the valuation allowance on the deferred tax assets.
FASB
ASC 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax
positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more likely than
not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized
tax benefits as income tax expense. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments,
accruals or material deviation from its position. The Company is subject to income tax examinations by major taxing authorities since
inception.
Net
Income per Share of Common Stock
The
Company complies with accounting and disclosure requirements of FASB ASC Topic 260, “Earnings Per Share.” The Company has
two classes of shares, which are referred to as Class A common stock and Class B common stock. Income and losses are shared pro rata
between the two classes of shares. Net income per share of common stock is calculated by dividing the net income by the weighted average
number of common stock outstanding for the respective period.
The
calculation of diluted net income per share of common stock does not consider the effect of the warrants underlying the Units sold in
the Initial Public Offering (including exercise of the over-allotment option) and the Private Placement Warrants to purchase 30,980,000
shares of Class A common stock in the calculation of diluted income per share, since their exercise of the warrants is contingent upon
the occurrence of future events. As a result, diluted net income per share of common stock is the same as basic net income per share
of common stock for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022. Re-measurement associated with the redeemable Class A common stock
is excluded from earnings per share as the redemption value approximates fair value.
The table below presents a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator
used to compute basic and diluted net (loss) income per share of common stock for each class of common stock:

Recent
Accounting Pronouncements
The
Company’s management does not believe that there are any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards, if
currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s unaudited condensed financial statements.
Note
3 - Initial Public Offering
On
December 15, 2020, the Company consummated its Initial Public Offering of 41,400,000 Units, including 5,400,000 Over-Allotment Units,
at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $414.0 million, and incurring offering costs of approximately $23.3 million, inclusive
of approximately $14.5 million in deferred underwriting commissions.
Each
Unit consists of one share of Class A common stock and one-half of one redeemable warrant (each, a “Public Warrant”). Each
whole Public Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share of Class A common stock at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment
(see Note 8).
Note
4 - Related Party Transactions
Founder
Shares
On
August 27, 2020, the Sponsor subscribed to purchase 10,062,500 shares of the Company’s Class B common stock, par value $0.0001
per share (the “Founder Shares”), and fully paid for those shares on September 22, 2020. On November 23, 2020, the Sponsor
surrendered 1,437,500 shares of Class B common stock to the Company for cancellation for no consideration. On December 10, 2020, the
Company effected a 1:1.2 stock split of Class B common stock, resulting in an aggregate of 10,350,000 shares of Class B common stock
outstanding. All shares and associated amounts have been retroactively restated to reflect the share surrender and the stock split. The
initial stockholders agreed to forfeit up to 1,350,000 Founder Shares to the extent that the over-allotment option was not exercised
in full by the underwriter, so that the Founder Shares would represent 20.0% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of
common stock after the Initial Public Offering. The underwriter exercised its over-allotment option in full on December 15, 2020; thus,
these 1,350,000 Founder Shares were no longer subject to forfeiture.
The
initial stockholders agreed, subject to limited exceptions, not to transfer, assign or sell any of the Founder Shares until the earlier
to occur of: (i) one year after the completion of the initial Business Combination or earlier if, subsequent to the initial Business
Combination, the closing price of the Class A common stock equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock capitalizations,
reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days
after the initial Business Combination, and (ii) the date following the completion of the initial Business Combination on which the Company
completes a liquidation, merger, capital stock exchange or other similar transaction that results in all of the stockholders having the
right to exchange their Class A common stock for cash, securities or other property.
Private
Placement Warrants
Simultaneously
with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the Private Placement of 10,280,000 Private Placement Warrants
at a price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant to the Sponsor, generating proceeds of approximately $10.3 million, and incurring offering
costs of approximately $8,000.
Each
whole Private Placement Warrant is exercisable for one whole share of Class A common stock at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to
adjustment. A portion of the proceeds from the sale of the Private Placement Warrants to the Sponsor 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 Private Placement Warrants will expire worthless. The Private Placement Warrants will be non-redeemable for cash (except as described
below) and exercisable on a cashless basis so long as they are held by the Sponsor or its permitted transferees.
The
Sponsor agreed, subject to limited exceptions, not to transfer, assign or sell the Private Placement Warrants until 30 days after the
completion of the initial Business Combination.
Related
Party Loans
On
August 27, 2020, the Sponsor agreed to loan the Company an aggregate of up to $300,000 to cover expenses related to the Initial Public
Offering pursuant to a promissory note (the “Note”). This loan was non-interest bearing and payable upon the completion of
the Initial Public Offering. As of December 15, 2020, the Company borrowed approximately $139,000 from the related party under the Note
and fully repaid the balance on December 16, 2020. Subsequent to the repayment, the facility was no longer available to the Company.
In addition, in order to fund working capital deficiencies or 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”).
If the Company completes a Business Combination, the Company may repay the Working Capital Loans out of the proceeds of the Trust Account
released to the Company. Otherwise, the Working Capital Loans could be repaid only out of funds held outside the Trust Account. 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. The Working Capital
Loans would either be repaid upon consummation of a Business Combination or, at the lenders’ discretion, up to $1,500,000 of such
Working Capital Loans may be convertible into warrants of the post Business Combination entity at a price of $1.00 per warrant. The warrants
would be identical to the Private Placement Warrants. Except for the foregoing, the terms of such Working Capital Loans, if any, have
not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such loans. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, other than
the Post-IPO Promissory Note, the Company had no borrowings under the Working Capital Loans.
On April 14, 2022, the Company entered into a promissory note with
the Sponsor, pursuant to which the Company may borrow up to an aggregate principal amount of $3.0 million Post-IPO Promissory Note. The
Post-IPO Promissory Note is non-interest bearing and due on the earlier of December 15, 2023 and the date on which the Company consummates
its initial business combination. If the Company completes a business combination, it would repay such additional loaned amounts, without
interest, upon consummation of the business combination. In the event that a business combination does not close, the Company may use
a portion of the working capital held outside the Trust Account to repay such additional loaned amounts but no proceeds from the Trust
Account would be used for such repayment. If the Company fully draws down on the Post-IPO Promissory Note and requires additional funds
for working capital purposes, the Sponsor, an affiliate of the Sponsor, or the Company’s officers and directors may, but are not
obligated to, loan the Company such additional funds as may be required. Borrowings made by the Company during the first quarter of 2023
were subsequently formalized with the execution of the Post-IPO Promissory Note on April 14, 2022.
On
January 19, 2023, pursuant to the Post-IPO Promissory Note, the Sponsor loaned the Company additional $725,000.
On
March 1, 2023, the Company and Sponsor amended and restated the Post-IPO Promissory Note such that the Post-IPO Promissory Note will
be repaid on the earlier of (i) December 15, 2023 and (ii) the effective date of a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase,
reorganization or similar business combination, involving the Company and one or more businesses, without interest.
As
of March 31, 2023, there was approximately $1.8 million outstanding under the Post-IPO Promissory Note, with $1.2 million principal balance
unutilized.
Service
and Administrative Fees
Commencing
on the date that the Company’s securities were first listed on Nasdaq through the earlier of the consummation of the initial Business
Combination and the Company’s liquidation, the Company agreed to pay the Sponsor $10,000 per month for office space, secretarial
and administrative services provided to members of the management team. The Company incurred $30,000 and $30,000 in connection with such
services for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, as reflected in the accompanying condensed statements of operations. As
of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, approximately $274,000 and $244,000 in accrued expenses with related party was outstanding,
respectively, as reflected in the accompanying condensed balance sheets.
In
addition, the Sponsor, executive officers and directors, or any of their respective affiliates will be reimbursed for any out-of-pocket
expenses incurred in connection with activities on the Company’s behalf such as identifying potential target businesses and performing
due diligence on suitable Business Combinations. The audit committee will review on a quarterly basis all payments that were made to
the Sponsor, executive officers or directors, or their respective affiliates. Any such payments prior to an initial Business Combination
will be made from funds held outside the Trust Account.
Financial
Advisory Services
On
February 2, 2023, the Company entered into an arrangement to obtain financial advisory services for $2.0 million in connection with a
specific target in the Company’s search for a prospective initial Business Combination. The fee for these services is contingent upon
the closing of the targeted transaction.
Note
5 - Commitments & Contingencies
Registration
Rights
The
holders of Founder Shares, Private Placement Warrants and warrants that may be issued upon conversion of Working Capital Loans, if any,
and any shares of Class A common stock issuable upon the exercise of the Private Placement Warrants are entitled to registration rights
pursuant to a registration rights agreement signed upon the consummation of the Initial Public Offering. These holders are entitled to
certain demand and “piggyback” registration rights. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing
of any such registration statements.
Underwriting
Agreement
The underwriter was entitled
to an underwriting discount of $0.20 per unit, approximately $8.3 million in the aggregate, paid upon the closing of the Initial Public
Offering. In addition, $0.35 per unit, or approximately $14.5 million in the aggregate will be payable to the underwriter for deferred
underwriting commissions. The deferred fee would become payable to the underwriter from the amounts held in the Trust Account solely in
the event that the Company completes a Business Combination, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement.
On February 10, 2023, the underwriter waived its entitlement to the
payment of any deferred discount to be paid under the terms of underwriting agreement. As a result, the reduction in deferred fees was
split on a pro rata basis between additional paid-in capital and other income based upon the original amount of the deferred underwriting
fee’s allocation to the liability-classified instruments in the initial public offering. Therefore, the
deferred underwriting fee was reduced by $14,490,000, of which $405,720
is shown in the condensed statement of operations as the reversal of transaction
costs incurred in connection with IPO and $14,084,280 is charged to additional
paid-in capital in the statement of stockholders’ deficit. As a result of the reduction, the outstanding deferred underwriting fee
payable was reduced to zero.
Risks
and Uncertainties
Management
continues to evaluate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the industry and has concluded that while it is reasonably possible that
the virus could have a negative effect on the Company’s financial position, results of its operations and/or search for a target
company, the specific impact is not readily determinable as of the date of these unaudited condensed financial statements. The unaudited
condensed financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
In
February 2022, a military conflict started between Russia and Ukraine. The ongoing military conflict between Russia and Ukraine has provoked
strong reactions from the United States, the United Kingdom, the European Union and various other countries around the world, including
the imposition of broad financial and economic sanctions against Russia. Further, the precise effects of the ongoing military conflict
and these sanctions on the global economies remain uncertain as of the date of these condensed financial statements. The specific impact
on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows is also not determinable as of the date of these condensed
financial statements.
On
August 16, 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (the “IR Act”) was signed into federal law. The IR Act provides for,
among other things, a new U.S. federal 1% excise tax on certain repurchases of stock by publicly traded U.S. domestic corporations and
certain U.S. domestic subsidiaries of publicly traded foreign corporations occurring on or after January 1, 2023. The excise tax is imposed
on the repurchasing corporation itself, not its shareholders from which shares are repurchased. The amount of the excise tax is generally
1% of the fair market value of the shares repurchased at the time of the repurchase. However, for purposes of calculating the excise
tax, repurchasing corporations are permitted to net the fair market value of certain new stock issuances against the fair market value
of stock repurchases during the same taxable year. In addition, certain exceptions apply to the excise tax. The U.S. Department of the
Treasury (the “Treasury”) has been given authority to provide regulations and other guidance to carry out and prevent the
abuse or avoidance of the excise tax. Any share redemption or other share repurchase that occurs after December 31, 2022, in connection
with a Business Combination, extension vote or otherwise, may be subject to the excise tax. Whether and to what extent the Company would
be subject to the excise tax in connection with a Business Combination, extension vote or otherwise will depend on a number of factors,
including (i) the fair market value of the redemptions and repurchases in connection with the Business Combination, extension or otherwise,
(ii) the structure of a Business Combination, (iii) the nature and amount of any “PIPE” (Private Investment in Public Entity)
or other equity issuances in connection with a Business Combination (or otherwise issued not in connection with a Business Combination
but issued within the same taxable year of a Business Combination) and (iv) the content of regulations and other guidance from the Treasury.
In addition, because the excise tax would be payable by the Company and not by the redeeming holder, the mechanics of any required payment
of the excise tax have not been determined. The foregoing could cause a reduction in the cash available on hand to complete a Business
Combination and in the Company’s ability to complete a Business Combination.
Note
6 - Warrants
As
of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had 20,700,000 Public Warrants and 10,280,000 Private Placement Warrants.
Public
Warrants may only be exercised for a whole number of shares. No fractional Public Warrants will be issued upon separation of the Units
and only whole Public 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; provided in each case that the Company has
an effective registration statement under the Securities Act covering the issuance of the shares of Class A common stock issuable upon
exercise of the Public Warrants and a current prospectus relating to them is available and such shares are registered, qualified or exempt
from registration under the securities, or blue sky, laws of the state of residence of the holder (or the Company permits holders to
exercise their Public Warrants on a cashless basis under the circumstances specified in the warrant agreement). The Company has agreed
that as soon as practicable, but in no event later than 15 business days after the closing of the initial Business Combination, the Company
will use its commercially reasonable efforts to file, and within 60 business days following the initial Business Combination to have
declared effective, a registration statement covering the issuance of the shares of Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the
warrants and to maintain a current prospectus relating to those shares of Class A common stock until the warrants expire or are redeemed.
If a registration statement covering the Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants is not effective by the 60th business
day after the closing of the initial Business Combination, warrant holders may, until such time as there is an effective registration
statement and during any period when the Company will have failed to maintain an effective registration statement, exercise warrants
on a “cashless basis” in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act or another exemption. Notwithstanding the
above, if the Company’s shares of Class A common stock are at the time of any exercise of a warrant not listed on a national securities
exchange such that they satisfy the definition of a “covered security” under Section 18(b)(1) of the Securities Act, the
Company may, at its option, require holders of Public Warrants who exercise their warrants to do so on a “cashless basis”
in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act and, in the event the Company so elect, it will not be required to file or maintain
in effect a registration statement, and in the event the Company do not so elect, it will use its best efforts to register or qualify
the shares under applicable blue sky laws to the extent an exemption is not available.
The
warrants have an exercise price of $11.50 per share and will expire five years after the completion of a Business Combination or earlier
upon redemption or liquidation. If (x) the Company issues additional shares of Class A common stock or equity-linked securities for capital
raising purposes in connection with the closing of the initial Business Combination at an issue price or effective issue price of less
than $9.20 per share of Class A common stock (with such issue price or effective issue price to be determined in good faith by the board
of directors and, in the case of any such issuance to the initial stockholders or their respective affiliates, without taking into account
any Founder Shares held by the initial stockholders or such affiliates, as applicable, prior to such issuance) (the “Newly Issued
Price”), (y) the aggregate gross proceeds from such issuances represent more than 60% of the total equity proceeds, and interest
thereon, available for the funding of the initial Business Combination on the date of the consummation of the initial Business Combination
(net of redemptions), and (z) the volume weighted average trading price of the Class A common stock during the 20 trading day period
starting on the trading day prior to the day on which the Company consummates its initial Business Combination (such price, the “Market
Value”) is below $9.20 per share, the exercise price of the warrants will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 115%
of the higher of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price, the $18.00 per share redemption trigger price described below will be adjusted
(to the nearest cent) to be equal to 180% of the higher of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price, and the $10.00 per share redemption
trigger price described below will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to the higher of the Market Value and the Newly Issued
Price.
The Private Placement Warrants are identical to the Public Warrants,
except that the Private Placement Warrants are not be transferable, assignable or salable until 30 days after the completion of the initial
Business Combination (except pursuant to certain limited exceptions to the officers and directors and other persons or entities affiliated
with the initial purchasers of the Private Placement Warrants) and, except as set forth below, they are not be redeemable by the Company
so long as they are held by the Sponsor or its permitted transferees. The Sponsor, or its permitted transferees, has the option to exercise
the Private Placement Warrants on a cashless basis. If the Private Placement Warrants are held by holders other than the Sponsor or its
permitted transferees, the Private Placement Warrants will be redeemable by us in all redemption scenarios and exercisable by the holders
on the same basis as the Public Warrants.
Redemption
of warrants when the price per share of Class A common stock equals or exceeds $18.00:
Once
the warrants become exercisable, the Company may redeem the outstanding warrants for cash (except as described herein with respect to
the private placement warrants):
| ● | in
whole and not in part; |
| ● | at
a price of $0.01 per warrant; |
| ● | upon
a minimum of 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption; and |
| ● | if,
and only if, the closing price of the Class A common stock for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period ending three trading
days before the Company sends the notice of redemption to the warrant holders (the “Reference Value”) equals or exceeds $18.00
per share (as adjusted). |
The
Company will not redeem the warrants as described above unless an effective registration statement under the Securities Act covering
the Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants is effective and a current prospectus relating to those shares of Class
A common stock is available throughout the 30-day redemption period.
Redemption
of warrants for when the price per share of Class A common stock equals or exceeds $10.00:
Once
the warrants become exercisable, the Company may redeem the outstanding warrants (except as described herein with respect to the Private
Placement Warrants):
| ● | in
whole and not in part; |
| ● | at
$0.10 per warrant upon a minimum of 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption provided that holders will be able to exercise
their warrants on a cashless basis prior to redemption and receive that number of shares determined by reference to an agreed table based
on the redemption date and the “fair market value” of Class A common stock; |
| ● | if,
and only if, the closing price of the Class A common stock equals or exceeds $10.00 per Public Share (as adjusted) for any 20 trading
days within the 30-trading day period ending three trading days before the Company sends notice of redemption to the warrant holders;
and |
| ● | if
the Reference Value is less than $18.00 per share (as adjusted), the Private Placement Warrants must also concurrently be called for
redemption on the same terms as the outstanding Public Warrants, as described above. |
The
“fair market value” of Class A common stock shall mean the volume weighted average price of Class A common stock during the
10 trading days immediately following the date on which the notice of redemption is sent to the holders of warrants. In no event will
the warrants be exercisable in connection with this redemption feature for more than 0.361 shares of Class A common stock per warrant
(subject to adjustment).
In
no event will the Company be required to net cash settle any warrant. 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 warrants will not receive any of such
funds with respect to their warrants, nor will they receive any distribution from the Company’s assets held outside of the Trust
Account with the respect to such warrants. Accordingly, the warrants may expire worthless.

8 - Stockholders’ Deficit
Preferred
Stock – The Company is authorized to issue 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share, with such designations,
voting and other rights and preferences as may be determined from time to time by the Company’s board of directors. As of March
31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there were no shares of preferred stock issued or outstanding.
Class
A Common Stock – The Company is authorized to issue 380,000,000 shares of Class A common stock with a par value of $0.0001 per
share. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there were 1,228,794 shares of Class A common stock issued and outstanding, all of
which were subject to possible redemption and classified as temporary equity (see Note 7).
Class
B Common Stock – The Company is authorized to issue 20,000,000 shares of Class B common stock with a par value of $0.0001 per
share. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, 10,350,000 shares of Class B common stock were issued and outstanding.
Stockholders
of record are entitled to one vote for each share held on all matters to be voted on by stockholders. Holders of Class A common stock
and holders of Class B common stock will vote together as a single class on all matters submitted to a vote of the stockholders except
as required by law.
The
Class B common stock will automatically convert into Class A common stock concurrently with or immediately following the consummation
of the initial Business Combination on a one-for-one basis, subject to adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations,
recapitalizations and the like, and subject to further adjustment as provided herein. In the case that additional shares of Class A common
stock or equity-linked securities are issued or deemed issued in connection with the initial Business Combination, the number of shares
of Class A common stock issuable upon conversion of all Founder Shares will equal, in the aggregate, on an as-converted basis, 20% of
the total number of shares of Class A common stock outstanding after such conversion (after giving effect to any redemptions of shares
of Class A common stock by Public Stockholders), including the total number of shares of Class A common stock issued, or deemed issued
or issuable upon conversion or exercise of any equity-linked securities or rights issued or deemed issued, by the Company in connection
with or in relation to the consummation of the initial Business Combination, excluding any shares of Class A common stock or equity-linked
securities or rights exercisable for or convertible into shares of Class A common stock issued, or to be issued, to any seller in the
initial Business Combination and any private placement warrants issued to the Sponsor, officers or directors upon conversion of Working
Capital Loans, provided that such conversion of Founder Shares will never occur on a less than one-for-one basis.

Transfers
to/from Levels 1, 2 and 3 are recognized at the beginning of the reporting period. The estimated fair value of the Public Warrant transferred
from a Level 3 measurement to a Level 1 measurement as such warrants began to be separately listed and traded in February 2021. There
were no transfers to/from Levels 1, 2, and 3 during the three months ended March 31, 2023.
On
December 13, 2022, the Company instructed Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, the trustee with respect to the Trust Account,
to cease holding securities in the Trust Account, to liquidate the securities held in the Trust Account and thereafter to hold all funds
in the Trust Account in cash (i.e., in one or more bank accounts) until the earlier of consummation of a Business Combination and liquidation
of the Company. See Note 2.
The fair value of warrants issued in connection with the Private Placement
has been estimated using a modified Black-Scholes model at each condensed balance sheet date. The fair value of the warrants issued in
connection with the Initial Public Offering was initially measured using a Monte-Carlo simulation, a Level 3 measurement, and subsequently
been measured at each measurement date based on the market price of such warrants, a Level 1 measurement as such warrants began to be
separately listed and traded in February 2021. For the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company recognized a gain from
the decrease in the fair value of warrant liabilities of approximately $620,000 and $10.8 million, respectively, presented as change in
fair value of warrant liabilities on the accompanying condensed statements of operations.
The
change in the fair value of the Level 3 derivative warrant liabilities for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 is summarized
as follows:
Warrant liabilities as of December 31, 2022 | |
$ | 616,800 | |
Change in fair value of warrant liabilities | |
| (205,600 | ) |
Warrant liabilities as of March 31, 2023 | |
$ | 411,200 | |
Warrant liabilities as of December 31, 2021 | |
$ | 5,448,400 | |
Change in fair value of warrant liabilities | |
| (3,598,000 | ) |
Warrant liabilities as of March 31, 2022 | |
$ | 1,850,400 | |
The
estimated fair value of the private placement warrants as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was determined using Level 3 inputs.
Inherent in modified Black-Scholes model are assumptions related to expected stock-price volatility, expected life, risk-free interest
rate and dividend yield. The Company estimates the volatility of its common shares based on historical volatility of select peer companies
that matches the expected remaining life of the warrants. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury zero-coupon yield
curve on the grant date for a maturity similar to the expected remaining life of the warrants. The expected life of the warrants is assumed
to be equivalent to their remaining contractual term. The dividend rate is based on the historical rate, which the Company anticipates
remaining at zero.

10 - Subsequent Events
The Company evaluated subsequent events and transactions that occurred
after the condensed balance sheet date up to the date that the unaudited condensed financial statements were issued. Based upon this review,
other than the below, the Company did not identify any other subsequent events that would have required adjustment or disclosure in the
unaudited condensed financial statements.
On April 17, 2023, pursuant
to the Post-IPO Promissory Note, the Sponsor loaned the Company an additional $390,000. There was approximately $2.2 million outstanding
under the Post-IPO Promissory Note, with $0.8 million principal balance unutilized.

of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the unaudited interim condensed
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.
Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This Quarterly Report
on Form 10-Q includes forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities, and Section 21E of the Exchange
Act. We have based these forward-looking statements on our current expectations and projections about future events. These forward-looking
statements are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and assumptions about us that may cause our actual results, levels of
activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements
expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such
as “may,” “should,” “could,” “would,” “expect,” “plan,” “anticipate,”

that might cause or contribute to such a discrepancy include, but are not limited to, those described in our other SEC filings.
Overview
We are a blank check company
incorporated in Delaware on August 27, 2020. We were 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 or entities (the “Business Combination”).
Our sponsor is Health Connect
Acquisitions Holdings LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Sponsor”). The registration statement for Initial Public
Offering was declared effective on December 10, 2020. On December 15, 2020, we consummated the Public Offering of 41,400,000 units (the
“Units” and, with respect to the Class A common stock included in the Units being offered, the “Public Shares”),
including the issuance of 5,400,000 Units as a result of the underwriter’s exercise of its over-allotment option in full, at $10.00
per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $414.0 million, and incurring offering costs of approximately $23.3 million, inclusive of approximately
$14.5 million in deferred underwriting commissions.
Simultaneously with the closing
of the Initial Public Offering, we consummated the private placement (“Private Placement”) of 10,280,000 warrants (each, a
“Private Placement Warrant” and collectively, the “Private Placement Warrants”), at a price of $1.00 per Private
Placement Warrant to our Sponsor, generating gross proceeds to us of approximately $10.3 million.
Upon the closing of the Initial
Public Offering and the Private Placement, $414.0 million ($10.00 per Unit) of the net proceeds of the Public Offering and certain of
the proceeds of the Private Placement was placed in Trust Account, located in the United States with Continental Stock Transfer &
Trust Company acting as trustee, and invested only in U.S. “government securities” within the meaning of Section 2(a)(16)
of the Investment Company Act having a maturity of 185 days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7
promulgated under the Investment Company Act which invest only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations, until the earlier of (i)
the completion of the Business Combination and (ii) the distribution of the Trust Account as described below.
If we are unable to complete
a Business Combination by December 15, 2023, or such earlier date as determined by the Company’s board of directors (the “Combination
Period”), we will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not
more than ten business days thereafter, redeem the Public Shares, at a per share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount
then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to
us to pay its 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 remaining stockholders and the board of directors, liquidate and dissolve, subject, in each case, to our obligations under Delaware
law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law.
On December 12, 2022,
we filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware an amendment (the “Extension Amendment”) to our amended
and restated certificate of incorporation to change the date by which we must consummate a Business Combination to December 15, 2023
from December 15, 2022, 24 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering to the Combination Period. Our stockholders
approved the Extension Amendment at the Special Meeting on December 9, 2022. In connection with the Special Meeting, stockholders
holding 40,171,206 Public Shares properly exercised their right to redeem their shares for cash at a redemption price of
approximately $10.10 per share, for an aggregate redemption amount of approximately $405.8 million. Following such redemptions,
approximately $12.4 million was left in trust and 1,228,794 Public Shares remained outstanding.
Results of Operations
Our entire activity since
inception through March 31, 2023 related to our formation, the preparation for the Initial Public Offering, and since the closing of the
Initial Public Offering, the search for a prospective initial Business Combination. We have neither engaged in any operations nor generated
any revenues to date. We will not generate any operating revenues until after completion of our initial Business Combination, at the earliest.
We generate non-operating income in the form of interest income on investments held in Trust Account. We expect to incur increased expenses
as a result of being a public company (for legal, financial reporting, accounting and auditing compliance), as well as for due diligence
expenses.
For the three months ended
March 31, 2023, we had net loss of approximately $31,000, which consisted of approximately $620,000 in change in fair value of warrant
liabilities, approximately $95,000 of interest income from investments held in Trust Account and approximately $406,000 in reversal of
transaction costs incurred in connection with IPO, partially offset by approximately $1.07 million in general and administrative expenses,
$30,000 of related party administrative fees, approximately $44,000 in franchise tax expense and approximately $11,000 income tax expense.
For the three months ended March 31, 2022, we had net income of approximately
$10.2 million, which consisted of approximately $10.8 million in change in fair value of warrant liabilities and approximately $37,000
of interest income from investments held in Trust Account, partially offset by approximately $568,000 in general and administrative expenses,
$30,000 of related party administrative fees and approximately $49,000 in franchise tax expense.
Liquidity, Capital Resources, and Going Concern
As of March 31, 2023, we
had approximately $113,000 in our operating bank account and a working capital deficit of approximately $1.5 million, not taking into
account tax obligations of approximately $260,000 that may be withdrawn from income earned on investments held in Trust Account and approximately
$1.8 million under the note payable – related party.
Prior to the consummation of the Initial Public Offering on December
15, 2020, our liquidity needs were satisfied through the receipt of $25,000 from our Sponsor in exchange for the issuance of Class B common
stock, and the proceeds of a promissory note from our Sponsor. Subsequent to the consummation of the Public Offering and Private Placement,
our liquidity needs have been satisfied with certain portion of the proceeds from the consummation of the Private Placement not held in
the Trust Account. In addition, in order to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, our Sponsor may, but
is not obligated to, provide us working capital loans. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, other than the Post-IPO Promissory
Note, there were no Working Capital Loans.
Through March 31, 2023, our
Sponsor loaned us approximately $1.8 million in cash, under the Post-IPO Promissory Note. The Post-IPO Promissory Note is non-interest
bearing and due on the earlier of December 15, 2023 and the date on which we consummate our initial business combination. If we complete
a business combination, it would repay such additional loaned amounts, without interest, upon consummation of the business combination.
In the event that a business combination does not close, we may use a portion of the working capital held outside the Trust Account to
repay such additional loaned amounts but no proceeds from the Trust Account would be used for such repayment.
We may need to raise additional
capital through loans or additional investments from our Sponsor, an affiliate of our Sponsor, or our officers or directors. Our officers,
directors and Sponsor, or their affiliates, may, but are not obligated to, loan us funds, from time to time or at any time, in whatever
amount they deem reasonable in their sole discretion, to meet our working capital needs. Accordingly, we may not be able to obtain additional
financing. If we are unable to raise additional capital, we may be required to take additional measures to conserve liquidity, which could
include, but not necessarily be limited to, curtailing operations, suspending the pursuit of a potential transaction, reducing overhead
expenses, and extending the terms and due dates of certain accrued expenses and other liabilities. We cannot provide any assurance that
new financing will be available to it on commercially acceptable terms, if at all.
Based upon the analysis above,
management has determined that the above conditions indicate that it may be probable that we would not be able to meet its obligations
within one year after the date that the unaudited condensed financial statements are available to be issued. In connection with our assessment
of going concern considerations in accordance with the FASB ASC Topic 205-40, “Presentation of Financial Statements - Going Concern,”
we have determined that the liquidity condition, mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution raises substantial doubt about our ability
to continue as a going concern. No adjustments have been made to the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities should we be required to
liquidate after December 15, 2023. The unaudited condensed financial statements do not include any adjustment that might be necessary
if we are unable to continue as a going concern.
Management continues to evaluate
the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and has concluded that the specific impact is not readily determinable as of the date of the condensed
balance sheet. The unaudited condensed financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this
uncertainty.
Related Party Transactions
Founder Shares
On August 27, 2020, the Sponsor
subscribed to purchase 10,062,500 shares of our Class B common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Founder Shares”),
and fully paid for those shares on September 22, 2020. On November 23, 2020, the Sponsor surrendered 1,437,500 shares of Class B common
stock to us for cancellation for no consideration. On December 10, 2020, we effected a 1:1.2 stock split of Class B common stock, resulting
in an aggregate of 10,350,000 shares of Class B common stock outstanding. All shares and associated amounts have been retroactively restated
to reflect the share surrender and the stock split. The initial stockholders agreed to forfeit up to 1,350,000 Founder Shares to the extent
that the over-allotment option was not exercised in full by the underwriter, so that the Founder Shares would represent 20.0% of the Company’s
issued and outstanding shares of common stock after the Initial Public Offering. The underwriter exercised its over-allotment option in
full on December 15, 2020; thus, these 1,350,000 Founder Shares were no longer subject to forfeiture.
The initial stockholders
agreed, subject to limited exceptions, not to transfer, assign or sell any of the Founder Shares until the earlier to occur of: (i) one
year after the completion of the initial Business Combination or earlier if, subsequent to the initial Business Combination, the closing
price of the Class A common stock equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock capitalizations, reorganizations,
recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after the initial
Business Combination, and (ii) the date following the completion of the initial Business Combination on which we complete a liquidation,
merger, capital stock exchange or other similar transaction that results in all of the stockholders having the right to exchange their
Class A common stock for cash, securities or other property.
Private Placement Warrants
Simultaneously with the closing
of the Initial Public Offering, we consummated the Private Placement of 10,280,000 Private Placement Warrants at a price of $1.00 per
Private Placement Warrant to the Sponsor, generating proceeds of approximately $10.3 million, and incurring offering costs of approximately
$8,000.
Each whole Private
Placement Warrant is exercisable for one whole share of Class A common stock at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment. A
portion of the proceeds from the sale of the Private Placement Warrants to the Sponsor was added to the proceeds from the Initial Public
Offering held in the Trust Account. If we do not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the Private Placement
Warrants will expire worthless. The Private Placement Warrants will be non-redeemable for cash (except as described below) and exercisable
on a cashless basis so long as they are held by the Sponsor or its permitted transferees.
The Sponsor agreed, subject
to limited exceptions, not to transfer, assign or sell the Private Placement Warrants until 30 days after the completion of the initial
Business Combination.
Related Party Loans
In order to fund working capital deficiencies or finance transaction
costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor, or certain of our officers and directors
may, but are not obligated to provide Working Capital Loans to the Company. If we complete a Business Combination, we may repay the Working
Capital Loans out of the proceeds of the Trust Account released to us. Otherwise, the Working Capital Loans could be repaid only out of
funds held outside the Trust Account. In the event that a Business Combination does not close, we 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. The Working Capital Loans would either be repaid upon consummation of a Business Combination or, at the lenders’ discretion,
up to $1,500,000 of such Working Capital Loans may be convertible into warrants of the post Business Combination entity at a price of
$1.00 per warrant. The warrants would be identical to the Private Placement Warrants. Except for the foregoing, the terms of such Working
Capital Loans, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such loans. As of March 31, 2023 and December
31, 2022, other than the Post-IPO Promissory Note, we had no Working Capital Loans.
On April 14, 2022, we entered into the Post-IPO Promissory Note. The
Post-IPO Promissory Note is non-interest bearing and due on the earlier of December 15, 2023 and the date on which we consummate its initial
business combination. If we complete a business combination, it would repay such additional loaned amounts, without interest, upon consummation
of the business combination. In the event that a business combination does not close, we may use a portion of the working capital held
outside the Trust Account to repay such additional loaned amounts but no proceeds from the Trust Account would be used for such repayment.
If we fully draw down on the Post-IPO Promissory Note and requires additional funds for working capital purposes, the Sponsor, an affiliate
of the Sponsor, or our officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan us such additional funds as may be required. Borrowings
made by us during the first quarter of 2023 were subsequently formalized with the execution of the Post-IPO Promissory Note on April 14,
2022. As of March 31, 2023, there was approximately $1.8 million outstanding under the Post-IPO Promissory Note.
On January 19, 2023, pursuant
to the Post-IPO Promissory Note, the Sponsor loaned the Company additional $725,000.
On March 1, 2023, the Company
and Sponsor amended and restated the Post-IPO Promissory Note such that the Post-IPO Promissory Note will be repaid on the earlier of
(i) December 15, 2023 and (ii) the effective date of a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar
business combination, involving the Company and one or more businesses, without interest.
As of March 31, 2023, there was approximately $1.8 million outstanding
under the Post-IPO Promissory Note, with $1.2 million principal balance unutilized.
Contractual Obligations
Registration Rights
The holders of Founder Shares,
Private Placement Warrants and warrants that may be issued upon conversion of Working Capital Loans, if any, are entitled to registration
rights pursuant to a registration rights agreement. These holders will be entitled to certain demand and “piggyback” registration
rights. However, the registration rights agreement provides that we will not permit any registration statement filed under the Securities
Act to become effective until the termination of the applicable lock-up period for the securities to be registered. We will bear the expenses
incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.
Underwriting Agreement
The underwriter was entitled
to an underwriting discount of $0.20 per unit, approximately $8.3 million in the aggregate, paid upon the closing of the Initial Public
Offering. In addition, $0.35 per unit, or approximately $14.5 million in the aggregate, will be payable to the underwriter for deferred
underwriting commissions. The deferred fee will become payable to the underwriter from the amounts held in the Trust Account solely in
the event that we complete a Business Combination, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement.
Administrative Support Agreement
We entered into an agreement
to pay our Sponsor a total of up to $10,000 per month for overhead and administration support. Upon completion of the initial Business
Combination or our liquidation, we will cease paying these monthly fees. We incurred $30,000 and $30,000 in connection with such services
for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, as reflected in the accompanying condensed statements of operations, respectively.
As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, an aggregate of $274,000 and $244,000 in accrued expenses with related party was outstanding,
respectively, as reflected in the accompanying condensed balance sheets.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of unaudited
condensed financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
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 unaudited condensed financial statements, and the reported amounts of income and expenses during
the periods reported. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. We have identified the following as our critical accounting
policies:
Class A Common Stock Subject to Possible
Redemption
We account for Class A common
stock subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in ASC Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.”
Common stock subject to mandatory redemption (if any) is classified as a liability instrument and measured at fair value. Conditionally
redeemable common stock (including common stock that features redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject
to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within our control) is classified as temporary equity. At all other times,
common stock is classified as stockholders’ equity. Our outstanding common stock features certain redemption rights that are considered
to be outside of our control and subject to the occurrence of uncertain future events. In connection with the Special Meeting, in December
2022, stockholders holding 40,171,206 Public Shares redeemed their shares for cash. Accordingly, as of March 31, 2023 and December 31,
2022, 1,228,794 shares of Class A common stock subject to possible redemption, respectively, are presented as temporary equity, outside
of the stockholders’ deficit section of the condensed balance sheets.
Under ASC 480, we have elected
to recognize changes in the redemption value immediately as they occur and adjust the carrying value of the security to equal the redemption
value at the end of each reporting period. This method would view the end of the reporting period as if it were also the redemption date
for the security. Immediately upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering, we recognized the re-measurement from initial book value
to redemption amount value. The change in the carrying value of the redeemable Class A common stock resulted in charges against additional
paid-in capital (to the extent available) and accumulated deficit.
Net Income per Share of Common Stock
We comply with accounting
and disclosure requirements of FASB ASC Topic 260, “Earnings Per Share.” We have two classes of shares, which are referred
to as Class A common stock and Class B common stock. Income and losses are shared pro rata between the two classes of shares. Net income
(loss) per share of common stock is calculated by dividing the net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common stock outstanding
for the respective period.
The calculation of diluted
net income per share of common stock does not consider the effect of the warrants underlying the Units sold in the Initial Public Offering
(including exercise of the over-allotment option) and the Private Placement Warrants to purchase 30,980,000 shares of Class A common stock
in the calculation of diluted income per share, since the exercise of the warrants is contingent upon the occurrence of future events.
As a result, diluted net income per share of common stock is the same as basic net income per share of common stock for the three months
ended March 31, 2023 and 2022. Re-measurement associated with the redeemable Class A common stock is excluded from earnings per share
as the redemption value approximates fair value.
Derivative Warrant Liabilities
We do not use derivative
instruments to hedge exposures to cash flow, market, or foreign currency risks. We evaluate all of our financial instruments, including
issued stock purchase warrants, to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives,
pursuant to FASB ASC Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity” and FASB ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging”
(“ASC 815”). The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities
or as equity, is re-assessed at the end of each reporting period.
We account for our warrants
issued in connection with the Initial Public Offering and the Private Placement Warrants as derivative warrant liabilities in accordance
with ASC 815. Accordingly, we recognize the warrant instruments as liabilities at fair value and adjust the instruments to fair value
at each reporting period. The liabilities are subject to re-measurement at each condensed balance sheet date until exercised, and any
change in fair value is recognized in our condensed statement of operations. The fair value of warrants issued in connection with the
Private Placement have been estimated using a modified Black-Scholes model at each balance sheet date. The fair value of the warrants
issued in connection with the Initial Public Offering was initially measured using a Monte-Carlo simulation and subsequently been measured
at each measurement date based on the listed trading price of such warrants when separately listed and traded in February 2021. The determination
of the fair value of the warrant liability may be subject to change as more current information becomes available and accordingly the
actual results could differ significantly. Derivative warrant liabilities are classified as non-current liabilities as their liquidation
is not reasonably expected to require the use of current assets or require the creation of current liabilities.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Our management does not believe
that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards updates, if currently adopted, would have a material effect
on the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements and Contractual
Obligations
As of March 31, 2023 and
December 31, 2022, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as defined in Item 303(a)(4)(ii) of Regulation S-K and did not have
any commitments or contractual obligations.
JOBS Act
The JOBS Act contains provisions
that, among other things, relax certain reporting requirements for qualifying public companies. We qualify as an “emerging growth
company” and under the JOBS Act are allowed to comply with new or revised accounting pronouncements based on the effective date
for private (not publicly traded) companies. We are electing to delay the adoption of new or revised accounting standards, and as a result,
we may not comply with new or revised accounting standards on the relevant dates on which adoption of such standards is required for non-emerging
growth companies. As a result, our unaudited condensed financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with new or
revised accounting pronouncements as of public company effective dates.
Additionally, we are in the
process of evaluating the benefits of relying on the other reduced reporting requirements provided by the JOBS Act. Subject to certain
conditions set forth in the JOBS Act, if, as an “emerging growth company,” we choose to rely on such exemptions we may not
be required to, among other things, (i) provide an auditor’s attestation report on our system of internal controls over financial
reporting pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, (ii) provide all of the compensation disclosure that may be required of non-emerging
growth public companies under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, (iii) comply with any requirement that may
be adopted by the PCAOB regarding mandatory audit firm rotation or a supplement to the auditor’s report providing additional information
about the audit and the unaudited condensed financial statements (auditor discussion and analysis) and (iv) disclose certain executive
compensation related items such as the correlation between executive compensation and performance and comparisons of the CEO’s compensation
to median employee compensation. These exemptions will apply for a period of five years following the completion of our Public Offering
or until we are no longer an “emerging growth company,” whichever is earlier.
