NOTE 1. DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS

HPX Corp. (the “Company”) is a blank check company incorporated as a Cayman Islands exempted company on March 20, 2020. The Company was formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, amalgamation, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or other similar business combination with one or more businesses (a “Business Combination”).

Although the Company is not limited to a particular industry or sector for purposes of consummating a Business Combination, the Company intends to focus on businesses in Brazil. The Company is an early stage and emerging growth company and, as such, the Company is subject to all of the risks associated with early stage and emerging growth companies.

As of September 30, 2022, the Company had not commenced any operations. All activity through September 30, 2022 relates to the Company’s formation, its initial public offering (“Initial Public Offering”), which is described below, and after the Initial Public Offering, the search for a target company for a Business Combination, the signing of the Business Combination Agreement (as described below) and in connection with the preparation of the consummation of the Business Combination. The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of a Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company generates non-operating income in the form of earnings from the cash and marketable securities held in the Trust Account (as defined below) and gain (loss) from changes in the fair values of warrant liabilities and PIPE derivative liability.

Recent Developments

Proposed Business Combination

As previously reported in our current report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on July 7, 2022, on July 5, 2022, the Company entered into a Business Combination Agreement (the “Business Combination Agreement”) by and among Ambipar Emergency Response, an exempted company incorporated with limited liability in the Cayman Islands (“New PubCo”), Ambipar Merger Sub, an exempted company incorporated with limited liability in the Cayman Islands (“Merger Sub”), Emergência Participações S.A., a corporation (sociedade anônima) organized under the laws of Brazil (“Emergencia”), Ambipar Participações e Empreendimentos S.A., a corporation (sociedade anônima) organized under the laws of Brazil (“Ambipar”), and the Company (the “Proposed Business Combination”). Emergencia is a leading environmental and industrial service provider with a diversified client base in logistics, chemical, oil and gas, mining and industrial sectors in Brazil and globally.

The Company’s board of directors (i) unanimously approved the Business Combination Agreement, the Mergers and the Transaction Agreements (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement) and (ii) unanimously determined to recommend that the shareholders of the Company vote to approve the SPAC Shareholder Matters (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement) and such other actions as contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement.

The Company is focused on consummating the agreements entered into in connection to the Business Combination Agreement by submitting the Proposed Business Combination to the Company’s shareholders for their consideration. The Company intends to publicly file a registration statement on Form F-4 (the “Registration Statement”) with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) which will include preliminary and definitive proxy statements to be distributed to the Company’s shareholders in connection with the Company’s solicitation for proxies for the vote by the Company’s shareholders in connection with the Proposed Business Combination and other matters as described in the Registration Statement, as well as the prospectus relating to the offer of the securities to be issued in connection with the completion of the Proposed Business Combination.

After the Registration Statement has been filed and declared effective, the Company will mail a definitive proxy statement and other relevant documents to its shareholders as of the record date established for voting on the Proposed Business Combination. The Company’s shareholders and other interested persons are advised to read, once available, the preliminary proxy statement/prospectus and any amendments thereto and, once available, the definitive proxy statement/prospectus, in connection with the Company’s solicitation of proxies for its special meeting of shareholders to be held to approve, among other things, the Proposed Business Combination, because these documents will contain important information about the Company, Emergencia, and the Proposed Business Combination. Shareholders may also obtain a copy of the preliminary or definitive proxy statement, once available, as well as other documents filed with the SEC regarding the Proposed Business Combination and other documents filed with the SEC by the Company,

On November 3, 2022, in connection with the Extraordinary General Meeting, the Company’s shareholders approved an additional extension of the Combination Period (as defined below) from November 20, 2022 to March 31, 2023 (the “Additional Extension”) (see Note 10).

Concurrently with the execution and delivery of the Business Combination Agreement, certain PIPE investors (“PIPE Investors”) entered into a share subscription agreement (“Subscription Agreement”) with the Company and New PubCo, pursuant to which the PIPE Investors have committed to subscribe New PubCo Class A ordinary shares at the closing of the Business Combination.

In addition, the Sponsor has signed a Downside Protection Agreement (“DPA”) with the PIPE Investors and the Non-Redeeming Shareholders, pursuant to which these investors are provided with certain downside protection rights subsequent to the closing date of the Business Combination Agreement. Subject to the terms and conditions of the DPA, including the investment return on a 30-month period, the investors may receive, on a pro-rata basis, an aggregate of up to 1,050,000 New PubCo Class A ordinary shares directly from the Sponsor (see Note 2 and Note 9).

(“XP”), owning 1,297,400 Class A ordinary shares of the Company, has entered into a certain non-redemption agreement with the Company and New PubCo (the “XP Non-Redemption Agreement”), pursuant to which, among other things, XP will be entitled to (i) an aggregate of 57,086 additional New PubCo Class A Ordinary Shares and (ii) 324,350 New PubCo Warrants, in each case to be issued by New PubCo to XP on or promptly following the Closing, in the event XP does not redeem the SPAC Shares of which it is the record and beneficial owner in connection with any Extension sought on or prior to July 15, 2022. The Company and the Sponsor are named third-party beneficiaries under the Shareholder Non-Redemption Agreements. In the event that the Business Combination Agreement is not consummated, and the Company does not complete a business combination before March 31, 2023, the Non-Redemption Agreement will no longer apply.

Redemptions of Class A Ordinary Shares

As previously reported in the Company’s current report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on July 14, 2022, on July 14, 2022, in connection with the vote to approve the Combination Period Extension, the holders of 19,472,483 Class A ordinary shares properly exercised their right to redeem their shares for cash at a redemption price of approximately $10.018 per share, for an aggregate redemption amount of approximately $195.1 million, which included approximately $0.4 million of Trust Account earnings, leaving approximately $58.4 million in the Trust Account.

Company’s Initial Public Offering and Search for a Target

The registration statement for the Company’s Initial Public Offering became effective on July 15, 2020. On July 20, 2020, the Company consummated the Initial Public Offering of 25,300,000 units (the “Units” and, with respect to the Class A ordinary shares included in the Units sold, the “Public Shares”), which includes the full exercise by the underwriter of the over-allotment option to purchase an additional 3,300,000 Units, at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $253,000,000 which is described in Note 3.

Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the sale of 7,060,000 warrants (the “Private Placement Warrants”) at a price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant in a private placement to HPX Capital Partners LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Sponsor”), generating gross proceeds of $7,060,000, which is described in Note 4.

HPX CORP.

NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Transaction costs amounted to $14,528,328, consisting of $5,060,000 of underwriting fees, $8,855,000 of deferred underwriting fees and $613,328 of other offering costs, $497,297 of which were allocated to the warrants and charged to expense during the year ended December 31, 2020.

Following the closing of the Initial Public Offering on July 20, 2020, an amount of $253,000,000 ($10.00 per Unit) from the net proceeds of the sale of the Units in the Initial Public Offering and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants was placed in a Trust Account (the “Trust Account”) located in the United States and invested in U.S. government securities, within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), with a maturity of 185 days or less, or in any open-ended investment company that holds itself out as a money market fund meeting certain conditions of Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act, as determined by the Company, until the earlier of: (i) the completion of a Business Combination and (ii) the distribution of the funds in the Trust Account to the Company’s shareholders, as described below.

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. The New York Stock Exchange rules require that a Business Combination must be 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 (net of amounts disbursed to management for working capital purposes, if permitted, and excluding the amount of any deferred underwriting discount held in trust). The Company will only complete a Business Combination if the post-Business Combination company owns or acquires 50% or more of the issued and 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. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully effect a Business Combination, including the Proposed Business Combination.

The Company will provide the holders of the Public Shares (the “Public Shareholders”) 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 shareholder meeting called to approve a Business Combination or (ii) by means of a tender offer, or upon a request to extend the Combination Period, as described below. The decision as to whether the Company will seek shareholder approval of a Business Combination or conduct a tender offer will be made by the Company, solely in its discretion. The Public Shareholders will be entitled to redeem their shares for a pro rata portion of the amount held in the Trust Account (initially $10.00 per share) as of two business days prior to the completion of a Business Combination, including any pro rata interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay its tax obligations, if any. The per-share amount to be distributed to the Public Shareholders who redeem their shares will not be reduced by the deferred underwriting commissions the Company will pay to the underwriter (as discussed in Note 6). There will be no redemption rights upon the completion of a Business Combination with respect to the Company’s warrants.

The Company will proceed with a Business Combination only if the Company has net tangible assets, after payment of the deferred underwriting commission, of at least $5,000,001 upon such completion of a Business Combination and, if the Company seeks shareholder approval, it receives an ordinary resolution under Cayman Islands law approving a Business Combination, which requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the shareholders who attend and vote at a general meeting of the Company. If a shareholder vote is not required and the Company does not decide to hold a shareholder vote for business or other legal reasons, the Company will, pursuant to its Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, conduct the redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules of the SEC, and file tender offer documents containing substantially the same information as would be included in a proxy statement with the SEC prior to completing a Business Combination. If the Company seeks shareholder approval in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor and any other holders of the Company’s Class B ordinary shares prior to the Initial Public Offering (the “initial shareholders”) have agreed to vote their Founder Shares (as defined in Note 5) and any Public Shares purchased during or after the Initial Public Offering in favor of approving a Business Combination and to waive their redemption rights with respect to any such shares in connection with a shareholder vote to approve a Business Combination. Additionally, subject to the immediately succeeding paragraph, each Public Shareholder may elect to redeem their Public Shares, without voting, and if they do vote, irrespective of whether they vote for or against a proposed Business Combination.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company seeks shareholder approval of a Business Combination and the Company does not conduct redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules, a Public Shareholder, together with any affiliate of such shareholder or any other person with whom such shareholder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined under Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of

1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), will be restricted from redeeming its shares with respect to more than 15% of the Public Shares without the Company’s prior written consent.

The Sponsor has agreed (a) to waive its redemption rights with respect to any Founder Shares and Public Shares held by it in connection with the completion of a Business Combination (and not seek to sell its shares to the Company in any tender offer the Company undertakes in connection with its initial Business Combination) and (b) not to propose an amendment to the Amended and Restated Memorandum of Articles of Association (i) to modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to allow redemption in connection with the Company’s initial Business Combination or to redeem 100% of the Public Shares if the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period or (ii) with respect to any other provision relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-initial business combination activity, unless the Company provides the Public Shareholders with the opportunity to redeem their Public Shares in conjunction with any such amendment.

The Company initially had until July 20, 2022 to consummate a Business Combination. However, pursuant to the Combination Period Extensions mentioned above, the Company now will have until March 31, 2023 to consummate a Business Combination (the “Combination Period”) (see Note 10). However, if the Company has not completed a Business Combination, including the Proposed Business Combination, within the Combination Period, as may be extended from time to time by the Company as a result of a shareholder vote to amend its Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association (the “Extension 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 (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses and which interest shall be net of taxes payable) divided by the number of the then-outstanding Public Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish the rights of the Public Shareholders as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any), subject to applicable law, and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the Company’s remaining Public Shareholders and its board of directors, liquidate and dissolve, subject in each case to the Company’s obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. There will be no redemption rights or liquidating distributions with respect to the Founder Shares or the Private Placement Warrants, which will expire worthless if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period or any Extension Period.

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

In order to protect the amounts held in the Trust Account, the Sponsor has agreed that it will be liable to the Company if and to the extent any claims by a third party (other than 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, reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account to below (1) $10.00 per Public Share or (2) such lesser amount per Public Share held in the Trust Account as of the date of the liquidation of the Trust Account due to reductions in the value of trust assets, in each case net of the interest which may be withdrawn to pay taxes, except as to any claims by a third party who executed a waiver of any and all rights to seek access to the Trust Account and except as to any claims under the Company’s indemnity of the underwriter of

the Initial Public Offering against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). In the event that an executed waiver is deemed to be unenforceable against a third party, the Sponsor will not be responsible to the extent of any liability for such third-party claims. The Company will seek to reduce the possibility that the Sponsor will have to indemnify the Trust Account due to claims of creditors by endeavoring to have all vendors, service providers (other than the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm), prospective target businesses or 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.

Risks and Uncertainties

In February 2022, the Russian Federation and Belarus commenced a military action with the country of Ukraine. As a result, various nations, including the United States, have imposed economic sanctions against the Russian Federation and Belarus. Further, the impact of this action and the related sanctions on the world economy, and the specific impacts on the Company’s financial position, results of operations and its ability to identify and complete an initial business combination are not determinable as of the date of these condensed financial statements.

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

Liquidity

As of September 30, 2022, the Company had $218,475 in its operating bank accounts, $58,650,422 in cash held in the Trust Account to be used for a Business Combination or to repurchase or redeem its ordinary shares (see Note 1 for redemptions made in July 2022 and Note 10 for redemptions made in November 2022) in connection therewith and a working capital deficit of $1,089,624 (which includes a liability for the $700,000 borrowing as described below).

As discussed in Note 5, on June 24, 2022, the Company entered into promissory notes with the Sponsor pursuant to which the Sponsor agreed to loan the Company up to an aggregate principal amount of $905,000 (the “Working Capital Note”). As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, there were $700,000 and $0 outstanding under the Working Capital Note, respectively (see note 10).

Going Concern

In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with FASB’s Accounting Standards Codification Subtopic 205-40, “Presentation of Financial Statements—Going Concern,” management has determined that if the Company is unable to raise additional funds to alleviate liquidity needs, obtain approval for another extension of the deadline or complete a Business Combination by March 31, 2023, in accordance with the Additional Extension as approved by the Company’s shareholders in connection with the Extraordinary General Meeting on November 3, 2022, then the Company will cease all operations except for the purpose of liquidating. The Company intends to complete a Business Combination before the mandatory liquidation date or obtain approval for an additional extension, however, it is uncertain whether the Company will be able to do so. If a Business Combination is not consummated by this date and an additional extension not requested by the Sponsor, there will be a mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution of the Company. Management has determined that the liquidity condition and the mandatory liquidation, should a Business Combination not occur and an extension is not requested by the Sponsor, and potential 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 March 31, 2023.

NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form

(Unaudited)

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

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 as filed with the SEC on April 14, 2022. The accompanying condensed balance sheet as of December 31, 2021 has been derived from the Company’s audited financial statements included in the Form 10-K. The interim results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2022 or for any future periods.

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 of 2002, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.

Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of the Company’s financial statements with another public company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting periods.

Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. One of the more significant accounting estimates included in these financial statements is the determination of the fair values of the Private Placement Warrants as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 and the determination of PIPE derivative liability as of the initial measurement and September 30, 2022. Such estimates may be subject to change as more current information becomes available and accordingly the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.

Reclassifications

Since March 31, 2022, legal fees payable upon the successful consummation of a Business Combination were reclassified from a current to a non-current liability as Deferred Legal Fees. Such reclassifications have no effect on the Company’s net income (loss) as previously reported. As of September 30, 2022, there was $4,304,833 outstanding under Deferred Legal Fees.

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 did not have any cash equivalents as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

Cash or Marketable Securities Held in Trust Account

On June 24, 2022, the Company instructed the trustee managing the Trust Account to hold all funds in the Trust Account in cash until the earlier of the consummation of an initial business combination and liquidation of the Company to mitigate any risk of being viewed as operating an unregistered investment company. On September 27, 2022, money market funds which invest in U.S. Treasury Securities held in Trust Account were sold and proceeds from the sale of these marketable securities including dividends earned were transferred to interest-earning checking account managed by the trustee. Until September 27, 2022, and as of December 31, 2021, all of the assets held in the Trust Account were held in cash and in money market funds which invest in U.S. Treasury securities.

Offering Costs

The Company complies with the requirement of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 340-10-S99-1. Offering costs consisted of legal, accounting and other expenses incurred through the Initial Public Offering that were directly related to the Initial Public Offering. Offering costs were 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 allocated to warrant liabilities were expensed as incurred in the statements of operations. Offering costs associated with the Class A ordinary shares issued were initially charged to temporary equity and remeasured to ordinary shares subject to redemption upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering.

Warrant Liabilities

The Company accounts for the Public Warrants (as defined in Note 3) and Private Placement Warrants (together, with the Public Warrants, the “Warrants”) in accordance with the guidance contained in ASC 815-40 under which the Warrants do not meet the criteria for equity treatment and must be recorded as liabilities. Accordingly, the Company classifies the Warrants as liabilities at their fair value and adjusts the Warrants to fair value at each reporting period. This liability is subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet date until exercised, and any change in fair value is recognized in our statements of operations. The Warrants for periods where no observable traded price was available are valued using a binomial lattice simulation. For periods subsequent to the detachment of the Public Warrants from the Units, which occurred on September 8, 2020, the Public Warrant quoted market price was used as the fair value as of each relevant date.

Derivative Financial Instruments

The Company evaluates its financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives in accordance with ASC 815. For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value on the issuance date and is then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the condensed statements of operations. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is evaluated at the end of each reporting period. Derivative liabilities are classified in the condensed balance sheets as current or non-current based on whether net-cash settlement or conversion of the instrument could be required within 12 months of the balance sheet date.

The PIPE derivative liability as a result of the Downside Protection Agreement signed by the Sponsor with PIPE Investors and the Non-Redeeming Shareholders meets the criteria for derivative liability classification. As such, the PIPE derivative liability is recorded at its initial fair value on the date of issuance, and each balance sheet date thereafter. Changes in the estimated fair value of the PIPE derivative liability are recognized as a non-cash gain or loss in the condensed statements of operations. The fair value of the PIPE derivative liability is discussed in Note 9.

Class A Ordinary Shares Subject to Possible Redemption

The Company accounts for its Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in ASC Topic 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” Class A ordinary shares subject to mandatory redemption are classified as a liability instrument and are measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable ordinary shares (including ordinary shares that feature redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the Company’s control) are classified as temporary equity. At all other times, ordinary shares are classified as shareholders’ equity. The Company’s Class A ordinary shares feature certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, all Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption are presented at redemption value as temporary equity, outside of the shareholders’ deficit section of the Company’s condensed balance sheets.

The Company recognizes changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and adjusts the carrying value of redeemable ordinary shares to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Immediately upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company recognized the remeasurement from initial book value to initial redemption amount value. The change in the carrying value of redeemable Class A ordinary shares resulted in charges against additional paid-in capital (to the extent available) and accumulated deficit.

Subsequent to the initial measurement upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company recognizes changes in the redemption value that result from earnings on cash and marketable securities held in Trust Account that have not been withdrawn to pay taxes. As of September 30, 2022, the holders of 19,472,483 Class A ordinary shares properly exercised their right to redeem their shares and the Company has not incurred any taxes or permitted expenses that could be withdrawn from the Trust Account.

As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Class A ordinary shares reflected in the condensed balance sheets are reconciled in the following table:


Gross proceeds from Initial Public Offering in July 2020	$	253,000,000

Proceeds allocated to Public Warrants		(8,475,500)
Class A ordinary shares issuance costs		(14,031,031)

During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company increased the carrying value of Class A ordinary shares for earnings on cash or marketable securities held in Trust Account by $694,351. See Notes 1 and 10 for redemptions in connection with the July 14, 2022 and November 3, 2022 vote to approve the Combination Period Extensions.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes under ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes” (“ASC 740”). ASC 740 requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for both the expected impact of differences between the financial statements and tax basis of assets and liabilities and for the expected future tax benefit to be derived from tax loss and tax credit carry forwards. ASC 740 additionally requires a valuation allowance to be established when it is more likely than not that all or a portion of deferred tax assets will not be realized.

ASC 740 also clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. ASC 740 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim period, disclosure and transition. There were no unrecognized tax benefits and no amounts accrued for interest and penalties as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. 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 considered an exempted Cayman Islands Company and is presently not subject to income taxes or income tax filing requirements in the Cayman Islands or the United States. As such, the Company’s tax provision was zero for the periods presented.

Net (Loss) Income Per Ordinary Share

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 ordinary shares and Class B ordinary shares. Income and losses are shared pro rata between the two classes of shares. Net (loss) income per ordinary share is computed by dividing net (loss) income by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding for the period. Remeasurement associated with the redeemable Class A ordinary shares is excluded from (loss) income per ordinary share as the redemption value approximates fair value.

The calculation of diluted (loss) income per ordinary share does not consider the effect of the Warrants issued in connection with the (i) Initial Public Offering, and (ii) the private placement since the exercise of the Warrants is contingent upon the occurrence of future events. The Warrants are exercisable to purchase 19,710,000 Class A ordinary shares in the aggregate. As of September 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company did not have any other dilutive securities or other contracts that could, potentially, be exercised or converted into ordinary shares and then share in the earnings of the Company. As a result, diluted net (loss) income per ordinary share is the same as basic net (loss) income per ordinary share for the periods presented.

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


	Three Months Ended				Three Months Ended				Nine Months Ended				Nine Months Ended

Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of a cash account in a financial institution which, at times may exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation coverage limit of $250,000. The Company has not experienced losses on this account and management believes the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such account.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurement,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the accompanying condensed balance sheets, primarily due to their short-term nature, except for the Warrants and PIPE derivative liability (see Note 9).

Recent Accounting Standards

In August 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No. 2020-06, ”Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity” (“ASU 2020-06”), which simplifies accounting for convertible instruments by removing major separation models required under current GAAP. ASU 2020-06 removes certain settlement conditions that are required for equity contracts to qualify for the derivative scope exception and it also simplifies the diluted earnings per share calculation in certain areas. ASU 2020-06 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact, if any, that ASU 2020-06 would have on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

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

NOTE 3. INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING

Pursuant to the Initial Public Offering on July 20, 2020, the Company sold 25,300,000 Units, which includes the full exercise by the underwriter of its option to purchase an additional 3,300,000 Units, at a purchase price of $10.00 per Unit. Each Unit consists of one Class A ordinary share and one-half of one redeemable warrant (“Public Warrant”). Each whole Public Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one Class A ordinary share at an exercise price of $11.50 per whole share (see Note 8).

NOTE 4. PRIVATE PLACEMENT

Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Sponsor purchased an aggregate of 7,060,000 Private Placement Warrants at a price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant from the Company in a private placement, for an aggregate purchase price of $7,060,000. Each Private Placement Warrant is exercisable for one Class A ordinary share at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment (see Note 8). Proceeds from the sale of the Private Placement Warrants were added to the net proceeds from the Initial Public Offering held in the Trust Account. If the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period or any Extension Period, the proceeds from the sale of the Private Placement Warrants held in the Trust Account will be used to fund the redemption of the Public Shares (subject to the requirements of applicable law) and the Private Placement Warrants will expire worthless.

NOTE 5. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Founder Shares

On April 8, 2020, the Sponsor purchased 5,750,000 of the Company’s Class B ordinary shares (the “Founder Shares”) for an aggregate consideration of $25,000. On June 25, 2020, the Sponsor transferred 20,000 Founder Shares to each of its independent director nominees at their original per-share purchase price. On July 15, 2020, the Company effected a share capitalization resulting in the initial shareholders holding an aggregate of 6,325,000 Founder Shares. However, on December 3, 2020, Fabio Mourão resigned as a director of our board of directors and forfeited 20,000 Founder Shares to the Company for no consideration and, as a result, since then the initial shareholders hold an aggregate of 6,305,000 Founder Shares. All share and per-share amounts have been restated to reflect the share capitalization. The Founder Shares included an aggregate of up to 825,000 shares subject to forfeiture by the Sponsor depending on the extent to which the underwriter’s over-allotment option was exercised, so that the Founder Shares would equal 20% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares after the Initial Public Offering. As a result of the underwriter’s election to fully exercise its over-allotment option on July 16, 2020, no Founder Shares are currently subject to forfeiture.

(Unaudited)

On July 23, 2021, a former director and a newly appointed director entered into a Securities Assignment Agreement (the “Securities Assignment Agreement”). The terms of the Securities Assignment Agreement specified that the former director transfer the 20,000 Founder Shares granted to him on June 25, 2020 to the newly appointed director, which the Company has treated as the cancellation of an existing award and the issuance of a new award.

The transfer of the Founders Shares to the Company’s directors and director nominees is in the scope of FASB ASC Topic 718, “Compensation-Stock Compensation” (“ASC 718”). Under ASC 718, stock-based compensation associated with equity-classified awards is measured at fair value upon the grant date. The Founder Shares were effectively transferred subject to a performance condition (i.e., the occurrence of a Business Combination). Compensation expense related to the Founder Shares is recognized only when the performance condition is probable of occurrence under the applicable accounting literature in this circumstance (i.e., upon consummation of a Business Combination). Stock-based compensation would be recognized at the date a Business Combination is considered probable (i.e., upon consummation of a Business Combination) in an amount equal to the number of Founders Shares times the grant date fair value per share (unless subsequently modified).

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

Administrative Services Agreement

The Company entered into an agreement whereby, commencing on July 16, 2020, the Company will pay the Sponsor up to $10,000 per month for office space, administrative and support services. Upon completion of a Business Combination or its liquidation, the Company will cease paying these monthly fees. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company incurred $30,000 and $90,000 in fees for these services, respectively. At September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, $265,000 and $175,000 are included in accounts payable and accrued expenses for these services, respectively.

Related Party Loans

In order to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor, or certain of the Company’s officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds as may be required (“Working Capital Loans”). Such Working Capital Loans would be evidenced by promissory notes. The notes may be repaid upon completion of a Business Combination, without interest, or, at the lender’s discretion, up to $1,500,000 of notes may be converted upon completion of a Business Combination into warrants at a price of $1.00 per warrant. Such warrants would be identical to the Private Placement Warrants. In the event that a Business Combination does not close, the Company may use a portion of proceeds held outside the Trust Account to repay the Working Capital Loans but no proceeds held in the Trust Account would be used to repay the Working Capital Loans.

On June 24, 2022, the Company entered into promissory notes with the Sponsor pursuant to which the Sponsor agreed to loan the Company up to an aggregate principal amount of $905,000 (the “Working Capital Note”). The Working Capital Note is non-interest bearing and payable on the earlier of the date on which the Company consummates a Business Combination or the date that the winding up of the Company is effective. If the Company does not consummate a Business Combination, all amounts loaned to the Company in connection with these loans will be forgiven except to the extent that the Company has funds available to it outside of its Trust Account;

however, no proceeds from the Trust Account may be used for such repayment. The Working Capital Note is not convertible. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, there were $700,000 and $0 outstanding under the Working Capital Note, respectively (see Note 10).

NOTE 6. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Registration Rights

Pursuant to a registration rights agreement entered into on July 15, 2020, the holders of the Founder Shares, Private Placement Warrants and any warrants that may be issued on conversion of Working Capital Loans (and any Class A ordinary shares issuable upon the exercise of the Private Placement Warrants or warrants issued upon conversion of the Working Capital Loans and upon conversion of the Founder Shares) are entitled to registration rights requiring the Company to register such securities for resale (in the case of the Founder Shares, only after conversion to the Company’s Class A ordinary shares). The holders of these securities will be entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short form registration demands, that the Company register such securities. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to the completion of a Business Combination and rights to require the Company to register for resale such securities pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act. However, the registration rights agreement provides that the Company will not be required to effect or permit any registration or cause any registration statement to become effective until termination of the applicable lock-up period. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.

Underwriting Agreement

The underwriter is entitled to a deferred fee of $0.35 per Unit, or $8,855,000 in the aggregate. The deferred fee will 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. Of such deferred fee amount, up to approximately $0.175 per Unit, or up to $4,427,500, may be paid to third parties who did not participate in the Initial Public Offering (but who are members of FINRA or regulated broker-dealers) that assist the Company in consummating a Business Combination. The election to make such payments to third parties will be solely at the discretion of the Company’s management team, and such third parties will be selected by the Company’s management team in its sole and absolute discretion.

On August 19, 2022, the Company and underwriter executed a waiver letter confirming the underwriter’s resignation and waiver of its entitlement to the payment of deferred fee under the terms of the underwriting agreement. As a result, the Company recognized $296,643 of other income and $8,558,357 was recorded to additional paid-in capital in relation to the waiver of the deferred underwriter fee in the accompanying condensed financial statements. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the deferred underwriting fee payable is $0 and $8,855,000, respectively.

Consulting Arrangements

The Company has arrangements with a consultant to provide services to the Company relating to market and industry analyses, assistance with due diligence, and financial modeling and valuation of potential targets. The Company agreed to pay the service provider a fee of 6,600 BRL per month (approximately $1,200 per month). For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company incurred and paid $13,138 of consulting fees. For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company incurred and paid $11,744 of consulting fees.

Restricted Stock Unit Award

In July 2021, pursuant to a Director Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement, dated July 23, 2021, between the Company and a director, the Company agreed to grant 20,000 restricted stock units (“RSUs”) to a director. The RSUs will vest upon the consummation of such Business Combination and represent 20,000 non-redeemable Class A ordinary shares of the Company that will settle on a date as soon as practicable following vesting but in no event more than 30 days after vesting. Issuance of the shares underlying the RSUs are also subject to the future approval of an equity incentive plan.

The RSUs to be granted by the Company are in the scope of FASB ASC Topic 718, “Compensation-Stock Compensation” (“ASC 718”). Under ASC 718, stock-based compensation associated with equity-classified awards is measured at fair value upon the grant date. The RSUs to be granted are subject to a performance condition (i.e., the occurrence of a Business Combination). Compensation expense related to the RSUs is recognized only when the performance condition is probable of occurrence under the applicable accounting literature in this circumstance. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company did not have a shareholder approved equity plan and also determined that a Business Combination is not considered probable, therefore, no stock-based compensation expense has been recognized. Stock-based compensation would be recognized at the date a Business Combination is considered probable (i.e., upon consummation of a Business Combination) in an amount equal to the number of RSUs times the grant date fair value per share (unless subsequently modified).

Contingent Fee Arrangement

On June 27, 2022, the Company entered into an agreement with a vendor to provide advisory services in connection with a potential Business Combination. The agreement calls for the Company to pay a fee of $2,000,000 upon the closing of a business combination. If the Business Combination is not consummated for any reason, no fee is payable under this agreement.

NOTE 7. SHAREHOLDERS’ DEFICIT

Preference Shares—The Company is authorized to issue 5,000,000 preference shares with a par value of $0.0001. The Company’s board of directors will be authorized to fix the voting rights, if any, designations, powers, preferences, the relative, participating, optional or other special rights and any qualifications, limitations and restrictions thereof, applicable to the shares of each series. The board of directors will be able to, without shareholder approval, issue preference shares with voting and other rights that could adversely affect the voting power and other rights of the holders of the ordinary shares and could have anti-takeover effects. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, there were no preference shares issued or outstanding.

Class A Ordinary Shares— The Company is authorized to issue 500,000,000 Class A ordinary shares, with a par value of $0.0001 per share. Holders of Class A ordinary shares are entitled to one vote for each share. As of September 30, 2022, there were 5,827,517 Class A ordinary shares issued and outstanding net of 19,472,483 Class A ordinary shares redeemed on July 14, 2022, and as of December 31, 2021, there were 25,300,000 Class A ordinary shares issued and outstanding, all of which were subject to possible redemption and reported as temporary equity.

Class B Ordinary Shares— The Company is authorized to issue 50,000,000 Class B ordinary shares, with a par value of $0.0001 per share. Holders of the Class B ordinary shares are entitled to one vote for each share. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, there were 6,305,000 Class B ordinary shares issued and outstanding.

Holders of Class A ordinary shares and holders of Class B ordinary shares will vote together as a single class on all matters submitted to a vote of the Company’s shareholders except as otherwise required by law.

The Class B ordinary shares will automatically convert into Class A ordinary shares on the first business day following the completion of a Business Combination, or earlier at the option of the holder, on a one-for-one basis, subject to adjustment. In the case that additional Class A ordinary shares, or equity-linked securities, are issued or deemed issued in excess of the amounts issued in the Initial Public Offering and related to the closing of a Business Combination, the ratio at which Class B ordinary shares will convert into Class A ordinary shares will be adjusted (subject to waiver by holders of a majority of the Class B ordinary shares) so that the number of Class A ordinary shares issuable upon conversion of all Class B Shares will equal, in the aggregate, on an as-converted basis, 20% of the sum of the ordinary shares issued and outstanding upon completion of the Initial Public Offering plus the number of Class A ordinary shares and equity-linked securities issued or deemed issued in connection with a Business Combination (net of redemptions), excluding any Class A ordinary shares or equity-linked securities issued, or to be issued, to any seller in a Business Combination: provided that such conversion of Class B ordinary shares will never occur on a less than one-for-one basis, unless agreed to by the holders of these shares.

NOTE 8. WARRANTS

As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, there were 12,650,000 Public Warrants outstanding, with each Public Warrant enabling the holder to purchase one Class A ordinary share at an exercise price of $11.50 per share. Public Warrants may only be exercised for a whole number of shares. No fractional shares will be issued upon exercise of the Public Warrants. The Public Warrants will become exercisable on the later of (a) 30 days after the completion of a Business Combination and (b) 12 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering. The Public Warrants will expire five years from the completion of a Business Combination or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.

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

The Company has agreed that as soon as practicable, but in no event later than 15 business days, after the closing of a Business Combination, it will use its commercially reasonable efforts to file with the SEC a registration statement registering the issuance, under the Securities Act, of the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the Public Warrants. The Company will use it commercially reasonable efforts to cause the same to become effective within 60 business days after the closing of a Business Combination and to maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement, and a current prospectus relating thereto, until the expiration of the Public Warrants in accordance with the provisions of the warrant agreement. Notwithstanding the above, if the Class A ordinary shares are, at the time of any exercise of a Public Warrant, not listed on a national securities exchange such that they satisfy the definition of a “covered security” under Section 18(b)(1) of the Securities Act, the Company may, at its option, require holders of Public Warrants who exercise their Public Warrants to do so on a “cashless basis” in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act and, in the event the Company so elects, the Company will not be required to file or maintain in effect a registration statement, but will use its commercially reasonable efforts to qualify the shares under applicable blue sky laws to the extent an exemption is not available.

Redemption of warrants when the price per Class A ordinary share equals or exceeds $18.00.

Once the Public Warrants become exercisable, the Company may redeem the Public Warrants:

●

in whole and not in part;

●

at a price of $0.01 per Public Warrant;

●

upon not less than 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption to each warrant holder and

●

if, and only if, the reported last sale price of the Class A ordinary shares for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which the Company sends the notice of redemption to the warrant holders (the “Reference Value”) equals or exceeds $18.00 per share (as adjusted).

Redemption of warrants when the price per Class A ordinary share equals or exceeds $10.00.

Once the Public Warrants become exercisable, the Company may redeem the Public Warrants:

●

in whole and not in part;

●

at $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, based on the redemption date and the fair market value of the Class A ordinary shares;

●

if, and only if, the Reference Value equals or exceeds $10.00 per share (as adjusted); and

●

if the Reference Value is less than $18.00 per share (as adjusted), the Private Placement Warrants must also be concurrently called for redemption on the same terms as the outstanding Public Warrants, as described above.

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

The exercise price and number of ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the Public Warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances including in the event of a share dividend, extraordinary dividend or recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation. However, except as described below, the Public Warrants will not be adjusted for issuances of ordinary shares at a price below its exercise price. Additionally, in no event will the Company be required to net cash settle the Public Warrants. If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period or any Extension Period and the Company liquidates the funds held in the Trust Account, holders of Public Warrants will not receive any of such funds with respect to their Public Warrants, nor will they receive any distribution from the Company’s assets held outside of the Trust Account with respect to such Public Warrants. Accordingly, the Public Warrants may expire worthless.

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

As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, there were 7,060,000 Private Placement Warrants outstanding with each Private Placement Warrant exercisable for one Class A ordinary share at a price of $11.50 per share. The Private Placement Warrants are identical to the Public Warrants underlying the Units sold in the Initial Public Offering, except that the Private Placement Warrants and the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon the exercise of the Private Placement Warrants will not be transferable, assignable or salable until 30 days after the completion of a Business Combination, subject to certain limited exceptions. Additionally, the Private Placement Warrants will be exercisable on a cashless basis and be non-redeemable, except as described above, so long as they are held by the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees. If the Private Placement Warrants are held by someone other than the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees, the Private Placement Warrants will be redeemable by the Company and exercisable by such holders on the same basis as the Public Warrants.

Conversion of warrants as a result of the consummation of the Business Combination.

At the time in which HPX shall be merged with and into New PubCo, each Public Warrant and Private Placement Warrant will be converted into one warrant to purchase one New PubCo Class A ordinary share (a “New PubCo Warrant”) (see Note 1) at an exercise price of $11.50 per share, subject to the same terms and conditions existing prior to such conversion.

NOTE 9. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

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

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

NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

SEPTEMBER 30, 2022

(Unaudited)

hierarchy is used to classify assets and liabilities based on the observable inputs and unobservable inputs used in order to value the assets and liabilities:

Level 1:

Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. An active market for an asset or liability is a market in which transactions for the asset or liability occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.

Level 2:

Observable inputs other than Level 1 inputs. Examples of Level 2 inputs include quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities and quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.

Level 3:

Unobservable inputs based on our assessment of the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

The following table presents information about the Company’s assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation inputs the Company utilized to determine such fair value:


		December 31,			September 30,
Description	Level	2021		Level	2022
Assets:
Cash held in interest-earning checking Trust Account	1	$	—	1	$	58,650,422
Marketable securities held in Trust Account	1	$	253,037,516	1	$	—

Liabilities:
Warrant Liability – Public Warrants	1	$	6,775,340	1	$	3,036,000
Warrant Liability – Private Placement Warrants	3	$	3,781,336	2	$	1,694,400
PIPE derivative liability	3	$	—	3	$	3,109,245

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

The Private Placement Warrants were initially valued using a binomial lattice model, which is considered to be a Level 3 fair value measurement. The binomial lattice model’s primary unobservable input utilized in determining the fair value of the Private Placement Warrants is the expected volatility of the ordinary shares. The expected volatility as of the Initial Public Offering date was derived from observable public warrant pricing on comparable ‘blank-check’ companies without an identified target. The expected volatility as of subsequent valuation dates was implied from the Company’s own Public Warrant pricing. Beginning on March 31, 2022 and as of September 30, 2022, the Private Placement Warrants are classified as Level 2 due to the use of a quoted price in an active market for a similar liability.

The measurement of the Public Warrants after the detachment of the Public Warrants from the Units on September 8, 2020, is classified as Level 1 due to the use of an observable market quote in an active market. For periods subsequent to the detachment of the Public Warrants from the Units, the close price of the Public Warrant on the New York Stock Exchange was used as the fair value of the Warrants as of each relevant date.

There were no transfers in or out of Level 3 for the year ended December 31, 2021. Transfers from Level 3 to Level 2 amounted to $1,282,802 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. There were no transfers in or out of Level 2 for the three months ended September 30, 2022.

The PIPE derivative liability was accounted for as a liability in accordance with ASC 815-40, measured at fair value at initial measurement date and on a recurring basis, with changes in fair value presented in the condensed statements of operations.

The Downside Protection Shares were initially and as of September 30, 2022, valued using a Monte Carlo model which is considered to be a Level 3 fair value measurement. The primary unobservable input utilized in determining the fair value of the PIPE derivative liability is the expected volatility of the Company’s ordinary shares. The expected volatility of the Company’s ordinary shares was determined based on the Cboe Volatility Index (“VIX”).

The key inputs into the Monte Carlo model for the PIPE derivative liability were as follows:

Overview

We are a blank check company incorporated in the Cayman Islands on March 20, 2020 formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, amalgamation, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or other similar business combination with one or more businesses, which we refer to throughout this Quarterly Report as a “Business Combination.”

Our registration statements for our initial public offering (“Initial Public Offering”) became effective on July 15, 2020. On July 20, 2020, the Company consummated the Initial Public Offering of 25,300,000 units (the “Units” and, with respect to the Class A ordinary shares included in the Units sold), which includes the full exercise by the underwriter of the over-allotment option to purchase an additional 3,300,000 Units, at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $253,000,000. Upon consummation of the Initial Public Offering, the Company’s securities were listed on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”). On October 24, 2022, the Company issued a press release and filed a current report on Form 8-K announcing the voluntary transfer of its securities from NYSE to NYSE American LLC. On October 27, 2022, the transfer of the securities became effective.

We intend to effectuate a Business Combination using cash derived from the proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants, our shares, debt or a combination of cash, shares and debt.

We expect to continue to incur significant costs in the pursuit of our acquisition plans. We cannot assure you that our plans to complete a Business Combination will be successful.

Shareholder Non-Redemption Agreements

Concurrently with the execution and delivery of the Business Combination Agreement, certain shareholders of the Company, owning, in the aggregate, 600,000 Class A ordinary shares (each, a “Non-Redeeming Shareholder”), have entered into non-redemption agreements (each, a “Non-Redemption Agreement”) with the Company and New PubCo, under which, among other things, such Non-Redeeming Shareholders have agreed, in consideration of (i) an aggregate of 26,400 additional New PubCo Class A Ordinary Shares and (ii) 150,000 New PubCo Warrants, in each case to be issued by New PubCo to such Non-Redeeming Shareholders on or promptly following the Closing, to vote in favor of transactions contemplated in the Business Combination Agreement for which the approval of such shareholders is required and agreed not to redeem or exercise any right to redeem any Class A ordinary shares of the Company that such shareholders hold of record or beneficially. Concurrently with the execution of the Non-Redemption Agreements, Trend HPX SPAC FIA IE, represented by its investment manager XP Allocation Asset Management Ltda. (“XP”), owning 1,297,400 Class A ordinary shares of the Company, has entered into a certain non-redemption agreement with the Company and New PubCo (the “XP Non-Redemption Agreement”), pursuant to which, among other things, XP will be entitled to (i) an aggregate of 57,086 additional New PubCo Class A Ordinary Shares and (ii) 324,350 New PubCo Warrants, in each case to be issued by New PubCo to XP on or promptly following the Closing, in the event XP does not redeem the SPAC Shares of which it is the record and beneficial owner in connection with any Extension sought on or prior to July 15, 2022. The Company and the Sponsor are named third-party beneficiaries under the Shareholder Non-Redemption Agreements. In the event that the Business Combination Agreement is not consummated, and the Company does not complete a business combination before March 31, 2023, the Non-Redemption Agreement will no longer apply.

Results of Operations

We have neither engaged in any operations nor generated any operating revenues to date. Our only activities from inception through September 30, 2022 were organizational activities, those necessary to prepare for the Initial Public Offering, described below, and subsequent to the Initial Public Offering, the search for a target company for a Business Combination, the signing of the Business Combination Agreement and in connection with the preparation of the consummation of the Business Combination. On July 5, 2022, the Company entered into the Business Combination Agreement. We do not expect to generate any operating revenues until after the completion of our initial Business Combination. Since the signing of the Business Combination Agreement, the Company has focused on ensuring that the transaction is consummated. The Company has in the past generated non-operating income in the form of interest income on marketable securities held in the Trust Account, and gain (loss) from changes in the fair values of warrant liabilities and PIPE derivative liability. On June 24, 2022, the Company instructed the trustee managing the Trust Account to hold all funds in the Trust Account in cash until the earlier of consummation of an initial business combination and liquidation of the Company to mitigate any risk of being viewed as operating an unregistered investment company. On September 27, 2022, money market funds which invest in U.S. Treasury Securities held in Trust Account were sold and proceeds from the sale of these marketable securities including dividends earned were transferred to interest-earning checking account managed by the trustee. We incur expenses as a result of being a public company (for legal, financial reporting, accounting and auditing compliance), as well as for due diligence expenses in connection with searching for, and completing, a Business Combination.

For the three months ended September 30, 2022, we had a net loss of $4,015,292, which consisted of operating and formation costs of $1,595,785 and change in fair value of warrant liabilities of $3,155,571, partially offset by the interest income on cash and marketable securities held in the Trust Account of $350,399, other income of $296,643, and change in fair value of PIPE derivative liability of $89,022.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we had a net income of $1,578,416, which consisted of change in fair value of warrant liabilities of $5,826,276, change in fair value of PIPE derivative liability of $89,022, interest income on cash and marketable securities held in the Trust Account of $694,351, and other income of $296,643, partially offset by operating and formation costs of $5,327,876.

For the three months ended September 30, 2021, we had a net income of $4,455,741, which consisted of a change in fair value of warrant liabilities of $4,603,900, interest income from the operating bank account of $21 and interest income on marketable securities held in the Trust Account of $6,379, partially offset by operating and formation costs of $154,559.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, we had a net income of $7,577,070, which consisted of a change in fair value of warrant liabilities of $8,278,200, interest income from the operating bank account of $72, and interest income on marketable securities held in the Trust Account of $18,927, partially offset by operating and formation costs of $720,129.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

On July 20, 2020, we consummated the Initial Public Offering of 25,300,000 Units, inclusive of the underwriter’s election to fully exercise its option to purchase an additional 3,300,000 Units, at a price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $253,000,000. Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, we consummated the sale of 7,060,000 Private Placement Warrants to the Sponsor at a price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant, generating gross proceeds of $7,060,000.

Following the Initial Public Offering, the exercise of the over-allotment option in full and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants, a total of $253,000,000 was placed in the Trust Account. We incurred $14,528,328 in transaction costs, including $5,060,000 of underwriting fees, $8,855,000 of deferred underwriting fees and $613,328 of other costs. On August 19, 2022, Credit Suisse, the underwriter and bookrunner in our Initial Public Offering, waived any entitlement to the deferred underwriting fee that accrued from its participation in our Initial Public Offering in the amount of $8,855,000.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, net cash used in operating activities was $1,031,317. Net income of $1,829,568 was affected by interest income on cash and marketable securities of $694,351, change in fair value of warrant liabilities of $5,826,276, change in fair value of PIPE derivative liability of $89,022, and other income generated from the waived deferred underwriting fee payable of $296,643. Changes in operating assets and liabilities provided $4,296,559 of cash from operating activities, primarily due to the deferred legal fees of $4,304,833.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, net cash from financing activities was $700,000. As discussed in Note 5, the Company drew down on the Working Capital Note in the amount of $700,000.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, net cash used in operating activities was $398,507. Net income of $7,577,070 was affected by interest income on marketable securities of $18,927 and a change in fair value of warrant liabilities of $8,278,200. Changes in operating assets and liabilities provided $321,550 of cash from operating activities.

As of September 30, 2022, we had cash held in the Trust Account of $58,650,422. We intend to use substantially all of the funds held in the Trust Account, including any amounts representing income earned on the Trust Account, which income shall be net of taxes payable and excluding deferred underwriting commissions, if any, to complete our Business Combination. We may withdraw income earned from the Trust Account to pay taxes, if any. Through September 30, 2022, we have not withdrawn income from the Trust Account to pay taxes and have withdrawn of $195,081,445 from Trust Account in connection with redemptions in July 2022. To the extent that our share capital or debt is used, in whole or in part, as consideration to complete a Business Combination, the remaining proceeds held in the Trust Account after any redemptions will be used as working capital to finance the operations of the target business or businesses, make other acquisitions and pursue our growth strategies.

As of September 30, 2022, we had cash of $218,475 held outside of the Trust Account. We intend to use the funds held outside the Trust Account primarily to identify and evaluate target businesses, perform business due diligence on prospective target businesses, travel to and from the offices, plants or similar locations of prospective target businesses or their representatives or owners, review corporate documents and material agreements of prospective target businesses, structure, negotiate and complete a Business Combination.

In order to fund working capital deficiencies or finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, our Sponsor or an affiliate of our Sponsor or certain of our officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan us funds as may be required. If we complete a Business Combination, we may repay such loaned amounts out of the proceeds of the Trust Account released to us. 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 loaned amounts, but no proceeds from our Trust Account would be used for such repayment. Up to $1,500,000 of such loans may be convertible into warrants, at a price of $1.00 per warrant, at the option of the lender. The warrants would be identical to the Private Placement Warrants.

Table of Contents

On June 24, 2022, the Company entered into a promissory note with the Sponsor pursuant to which the Sponsor agreed to loan the Company up to an aggregate principal amount of $905,000 (the “Working Capital Note”). The Working Capital Note is non-interest bearing and payable on the earlier of the date on which the Company consummates a Business Combination or the date that the winding up of the Company is effective, without an option of the Sponsor to convert any amount outstanding thereunder upon completion of a business combination into warrants. If the Company does not consummate a Business Combination, all amounts loaned to the Company in connection with the Working Capital Note will be forgiven except to the extent that the Company has funds available to it outside of its Trust Account; however, no proceeds from the Trust Account may be used for such repayment. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, there were $700,000 and $0 outstanding under the Working Capital Note, respectively (see note 10).

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

Going Concern

The Company may need to raise additional capital through loans or additional investments from its Sponsor, shareholders, officers, directors or third parties. The Company’s officers, directors and Sponsor may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds, from time to time or at any time, in whatever amount they deem reasonable in their sole discretion, to meet the Company’s working capital needs. Accordingly, the Company may not be able to obtain additional financing. If the Company is unable to raise additional capital, the Company may be required to take additional measures to conserve liquidity, which could include, but not necessarily be limited to, curtailing operations, suspending the pursuit of a potential transaction, and reducing overhead expenses. The Company cannot provide any assurance that new financing will be available to it on commercially acceptable terms, if at all.

Off-Balance Sheet Financing Arrangements

We have no obligations, assets or liabilities, which would be considered off-balance sheet arrangements as of September 30, 2022. We do not participate in transactions that create relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, often referred to as variable interest entities, which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements. We have not entered into any off-balance sheet financing arrangements, established any special purpose entities, guaranteed any debt or commitments of other entities, or purchased any non-financial assets.

Contractual Obligations

We do not have any long-term debt, capital lease obligations, operating lease obligations or long-term liabilities, other than an agreement to pay the Sponsor a monthly fee of $10,000 for office space, administrative and support services, provided to the Company. We began incurring these fees on July 16, 2020 and will continue to incur these fees monthly until the earlier of the completion of a Business Combination and the Company’s liquidation. At September 30, 2022, $265,000 is included in accounts payable and accrued expenses for these services.

The underwriter in our Initial Public Offering was entitled to a deferred fee of $0.35 per Unit, or $8,855,000 in the aggregate. The deferred fee was 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. However, on August 19, 2022, Credit Suisse, the underwriter and bookrunner in our Initial Public Offering, waived any entitlement to the deferred underwriting fee that accrued from its participation in our Initial Public Offering in the amount of $8,855,000.

We have arrangements with a consultant to provide services to us relating to market and industry analyses, assistance with due diligence, and financial modeling and valuation of potential targets. We agreed to pay the service provider a fee of 6,600 BRL per month (approximately $1,200 per month). The agreement was initially entered into for a fixed term of 24 months terminating on September 15, 2022, but was renewed and will terminate upon closing of the initial business combination.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of condensed financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed financial statements, and income and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates.

The Company’s Critical Accounting Policies are included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 as filed with the SEC on April 14, 2022. There have been no changes in the Critical Accounting Policies described in our Form 10-K through the date of this Quarterly Report, except as below.

Derivative Financial Instruments

The PIPE derivative liability as a result of the Downside Protection Agreement signed by the Sponsor with PIPE Investors and the Non-Redeeming Shareholders meets the criteria for derivative liability classification. As such, the PIPE derivative liability is recorded at its initial fair value on the date of issuance, and each balance sheet date thereafter. Changes in the estimated fair value of the PIPE derivative liability is recognized as a non-cash gain or loss in the condensed statements of operations. The fair value of the PIPE derivative liability is discussed in Note 9.

Recent Accounting Standards

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-06, “Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity” (“ASU 2020-06”), which simplifies accounting for convertible instruments by removing major separation models required under current GAAP. ASU 2020-06 removes certain settlement conditions that are required for equity contracts to qualify for the derivative scope exception and it also simplifies the diluted earnings per share calculation in certain areas. ASU 2020-06 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact, if any, that ASU 2020-06 would have on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

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

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

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

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As required by Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2022. Based upon their evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) were not effective, due solely to the material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting related to the Company’s accounting for complex financial instruments.

Management has identified a material weakness in internal controls related to the accounting for complex financial instruments. While we have processes to identify and appropriately apply applicable accounting requirements, we plan to continue to enhance our system of evaluating and implementing the accounting standards that apply to our financial statements, including through enhanced analyses by our personnel and third-party professionals with whom we consult regarding complex accounting applications. The elements of our remediation plan can only be accomplished over time, and we can offer no assurance that these initiatives will ultimately have the intended effects.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the most recent fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2022, covered by this Quarterly Report, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
