NORTHVIEW ACQUISITION CORPORATION
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1 - Organization, Business Operations and
Liquidity
NorthView Acquisition Corporation (the “Company”) is a blank
check company incorporated in Delaware on April 19, 2021. The
Company was formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital
stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization
or similar business combination with one or more businesses
(“Business Combination”). The Company has not selected any specific
Business Combination target. While the Company may pursue an
initial Business Combination target in any business, industry or
geographical location, it intends to focus its search on businesses
that are focused on healthcare innovation.
On December 22, 2021, the Company consummated its Initial
Public Offering (“IPO”) of 18,975,000 units (the
“Units”), which included 2,475,000 Units issued pursuant
to the full exercise of the over-allotment option granted to the
underwriters. Each Unit consists of one share of common stock of
the Company, par value $0.0001 per share, one right (the
“Rights”), and one-half of one redeemable warrant of the Company
(the “Warrants”). Each Right entitles the holder thereof to receive
one-tenth (1/10) of one share of common stock. Each Warrant
entitles the holder thereof to purchase one share of common stock
for $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment. The Units were
sold at a price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds
to the Company of $189,750,000.
Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, the Company
completed the private sale of an aggregate
of 7,347,500 warrants (the “Private Placement Warrants”),
which included 697,500 Private Placement Warrants issued
pursuant to the full exercise of the over-allotment option granted
to the underwriters, to NorthView Sponsor I, LLC, I-Bankers
Securities, Inc., and Dawson James Securities, Inc. at a
purchase price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant,
generating gross proceeds to the Company of $7,347,500, which is
discussed in Note 4.
Transaction costs amounted to $7,959,726 consisting of

Representative’s Shares cost, $259,527 of Representative’s
Warrants cost and $679,623 of other offering costs.
The Company’s Business Combination must be with one or more
target businesses that together have a fair market value equal to
at least 80% of the value of the assets held in the Trust
Account (as defined below) (excluding taxes payable on the interest
earned on the Trust Account) at the time of the signing a
definitive agreement in connection with the initial Business
Combination. However, the Company will only complete a Business
Combination if the post-transaction company owns or
acquires 50% or more of the outstanding voting securities of
the target or otherwise acquires a controlling interest in the
target 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.
Following the closing of the Public Offering on December 22,
2021, an amount of $191,647,500 ($10.10 per Unit),
excluding $741,228 that was wired to the Company’s operating
bank account on December 31, 2021 for working capital purpose, from
the net proceeds of the sale of the public units in the IPO and the
sale of the Private Placement Warrants was placed in a Trust
Account (“Trust Account”) and invested in United States
government treasury bills with a maturity of 185 days or
less or in money market funds investing solely in
United States Treasuries and meeting certain conditions under
Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act. as determined
by the Company. Except with respect to interest earned on the funds
held in the Trust Account that may be released to the Company to
pay its taxes, if any, the proceeds from the IPO will not be
released from the Trust Account until the earliest of (i) the
completion of the Company’s initial Business Combination,
(ii) the redemption of any public shares properly tendered in
connection with a stockholder vote to amend the Company’s amended
and restated certificate of incorporation (A) to modify the
substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to redeem 100%
of the public shares if the Company does not complete the initial
Business Combination within 15 months from the closing of the
IPO (or up to 21 months from the closing of our IPO if we
extend the period of time to consummate a business combination)
(the “Combination Period”), or (B) with respect to any other
provision relating to stockholders’ rights or
pre-Business Combination activity, and (iii) the
redemption of all of the Company’s public shares if the Company is
unable to complete the Business Combination within the Combination
Period, subject to applicable law. The proceeds deposited in the
Trust Account could become subject to the claims of the Company’s
creditors, if any, which could have priority over the claims of the
Company’s public stockholders.
The Company will provide its public stockholders with the
opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their public shares upon
the completion of the initial Business Combination either
(i) in connection with a stockholder meeting called to approve
the initial Business Combination or (ii) by means of a tender
offer. The decision as to whether the Company will seek stockholder
approval of a proposed initial Business Combination or conduct a
tender offer will be made by the Company, solely in its discretion.
The stockholders will be entitled to redeem all or a portion of
their public shares upon the completion of the initial Business
Combination at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to
the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account as of two
business days prior to the consummation of the initial Business
Combination, including interest (which interest shall be net of
taxes payable) divided by the number of then outstanding public
shares, subject to the limitations described herein. The amount in
the Trust Account is $10.10 per public share. The per share
amount the Company will distribute to investors who properly redeem
their shares will not be reduced by the fee payable to
I-Bankers and Dawson James pursuant to the Business
Combination Marketing Agreement (see Note 6).
If the Company is unable to complete an initial Business
Combination within such period, it 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 (which interest shall be net
of taxes payable, and less up to $100,000 of interest to pay
dissolution expenses) divided by the number of then outstanding
public shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public
stockholders’ rights as stockholders (including the right to
receive further 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 stockholders and its board of directors, dissolve and
liquidate, subject in each case to the Company’s obligations under
Delaware law to provide for claims of creditors and the
requirements of other applicable law. There will be no redemption
rights or liquidating distributions with respect to the Company’s
rights and warrants, which will expire worthless if the Company
fails to complete the Business Combination within the
15-month time period. Pursuant to the terms of the trust
agreement entered into between us and Continental Stock Transfer
& Trust Company, LLC on December 20, 2021, in order to extend
the time available for us to consummate our initial business
combination, our sponsor or their affiliates or designees, upon
five days advance notice prior to the applicable deadline, must
deposit into the trust account for each three-month extension,
an amount of $1,897,500 ($0.10 per share) on or prior to
the date of the applicable deadline, up to an aggregate of
$3,795,000, or approximately $0.20 per share.
All of the Public Shares, or shares of our common stock sold
as part of the IPO, contain a redemption feature which allows for
the redemption of such Public Shares in connection with our
liquidation, if there is a stockholder vote or tender offer in
connection with our initial business combination and in connection
with certain amendments to our amended and restated certificate of
incorporation. In accordance with SEC and its guidance on
redeemable equity instruments, which has been codified in ASC
480-10-S99, redemption provisions not solely within the control of
a company require common stock subject to redemption to be
classified outside of permanent equity. Given that the Public
Shares were issued with other freestanding instruments (i.e.,
public warrants), the initial carrying value of common stock
classified as temporary equity was the allocated proceeds
determined in accordance with ASC 470-20. The common stock is
subject to ASC 480-10-S99. If it is probable that the equity
instrument will become redeemable, we have the option to either (i)
accrete changes in the redemption value over the period from the
date of issuance (or from the date that it becomes probable that
the instrument will become redeemable, if later) to the earliest
redemption date of the instrument or (ii) recognize changes in the
redemption value immediately as they occur and adjust the carrying
amount of the instrument to equal the redemption value at the end
of each reporting period. We have elected to recognize the changes
immediately. While redemptions cannot cause the Company’s net
tangible assets to fall below $5,000,001, the Public Shares are
redeemable and will be classified as such on the balance sheets
until such date that a redemption event takes place.
The Sponsor, officers and directors have agreed to
(i) waive their redemption rights with respect to their
Founder Shares and public shares in connection with the completion
of the initial Business Combination, (ii) waive their rights
to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to
their Founder Shares if the Company fails to complete the initial
Business Combination within the Combination Period (although they
will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust
Account with respect to any public shares they hold if the Company
fails to complete the Business Combination within such time
period); and (iii) vote their Founder Shares and any public
shares purchased during or after the IPO in favor of the initial
Business Combination.
The Company’s Sponsor has agreed that it will be liable to
the Company if and to the extent any claims by a vendor for
services rendered or products sold to the Company, or a prospective
target business with which the Company has discussed entering into
a transaction agreement, reduce the amount of funds in the Trust
Account to below (i) $10.10 per public share or (ii) such
lesser amount per public share held in the Trust Account as of the
date of the liquidation of the Trust Account due to reductions in
value of the trust assets, in each case net of the amount of
interest which may be released to the Company 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 indemnity of the underwriters of the IPO against
certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities
Act. Moreover, in the event that an executed waiver is deemed to be
unenforceable against a third party, the Sponsor will not be
responsible to the extent of any liability for such third party
claims.
Liquidity and Going Concern
As of June 30, 2022, the Company had approximately $0.5
million in cash and working capital of approximately
$0.8 million. Prior to the completion of the Company’s IPO,
the Company’s liquidity needs had been satisfied through a capital
contribution from the Sponsor of $25,000 for the founder shares to
cover certain of the offering costs and the loan under an unsecured
promissory note from the Sponsor of $204,841, which was fully paid
upon the IPO. Subsequent to the consummation of the Initial Public
Offering and Private Placement, the Company’s liquidity needs have
been satisfied through the proceeds from the consummation of the
Private Placement not held in the Trust Account.
In addition, in order to finance transaction costs in
connection with an intended Business Combination, the initial
stockholders or an affiliate of the initial stockholders or certain
of the Company’s officers and directors may, but are not obligated
to, provide the Company Working Capital Loans (see Note 5). As of
June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, there
were no amounts outstanding under any Working Capital
Loans.
The Company has until March 22, 2023 to consummate a Business
Combination. It is uncertain that the Company will be able to
consummate a Business Combination by March 22, 2023. If a Business
Combination is not consummated by the required date, there will be
a mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution. In connection
with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in
accordance with the authoritative guidance in Financial Accounting
Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”)
2014-15, “Disclosure of Uncertainties About an Entity’s Ability to
Continue as a Going Concern,” management has determined that
mandatory liquidation, and subsequent dissolution, should the
Company be unable to complete a business combination, raises
substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a
going concern for the next twelve months from the issuance of these
unaudited condensed financial statements. No adjustments have been
made to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities should the
Company be required to liquidate after March 22, 2023.
Risks and Uncertainties
Management is continuing to evaluate the impact of the
COVID-19 pandemic and the Russia-Ukraine war and has concluded that
while it is reasonably possible that it could have a negative
effect on the Company’s financial position, results of its
operations and/or search for a target company, the specific impact
is not readily determinable as of the date of these unaudited
condensed financial statements. The unaudited condensed financial
statements do not include any adjustments that might result from
the outcome of this uncertainty.
Note 2 - Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements are
presented in U.S. dollars in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for
financial information and pursuant to the rules and regulations of
the SEC. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information
and footnotes required by GAAP. In the opinion of management, the
unaudited condensed financial statements reflect all adjustments,
which include only normal recurring adjustments necessary for the
fair statement of the balances and results for the periods
presented. The interim results for the three and six months ended
June 30, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be
expected for the year ending December 31, 2022 or for any future
periods. The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements
should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial
statements and notes thereto included in the Form 10-K annual
report filed by the Company with the SEC on March 18,
2022.
Emerging Growth Company Status
The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in
Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart
Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”), and it may take
advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements
that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging
growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required
to comply with the independent registered public accounting firm
attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act,
reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in
its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the
requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive
compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute
payments not previously approved.
Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging
growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised
financial accounting standards until private companies (that is,
those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement
declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered
under the 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
unaudited condensed 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 these unaudited condensed 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 unaudited condensed financial
statements.
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 unaudited condensed financial
statements, which management considered in formulating its
estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future
confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ
significantly from those estimates.
Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to
concentrations of credit risk consist of a cash account in a
financial institution, which, at times, may exceed the Federal
Depository Insurance Coverage of $250,000. The Company has not
experienced losses on this account.
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
June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021.
Cash and Marketable Securities Held in Trust
Account
At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the assets held in
the Trust Account were held in U.S. Treasury Bills with a
maturity of 185 days or less and in money market
funds which invest in U.S. Treasury securities.
On June 29, 2022, pursuant to the trust agreement dated as of
December 20, 2021 between the Company and Continental Stock
Transfer & Trust Company (“CST”), the trustee of the Trust
Account, $8,484 of interest income from the Trust Account was
withdrawn by the Company for the payment of its taxes.
The Company classifies its US Treasury bills as
held-to-maturity in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 320 “Investments
- Debt and Equity Securities.” Held-to-maturity securities are
those securities which the Company has the ability and intent to
hold until maturity. Held-to-maturity treasury securities are
recorded at amortized cost and adjusted for the amortization or
accretion of premiums or discounts.
A decline in the market value of held-to-maturity securities
below cost that is deemed to be other than temporary, results in an
impairment that reduces the carrying costs to such securities’ fair
value. The impairment is charged to earnings and a new cost basis
for the security is established. To determine whether an impairment
is other than temporary, the Company considers whether it has the
ability and intent to hold the investment until a market price
recovery and considers whether evidence indicating the cost of the
investment is recoverable outweighs evidence to the contrary.
Evidence considered in this assessment includes the reasons for the
impairment, the severity and the duration of the impairment,
changes in value subsequent to year-end, forecasted performance of
the investee, and the general market condition in the geographic
area or industry in which the investee operates.
Premiums and discounts are amortized or accreted over the
life of the related held-to-maturity security as an adjustment to
yield using the effective-interest method. Such amortization and
accretion are included in the “interest income” line item in the
unaudited condensed statements of operations. Interest income is
recognized when earned.
The carrying value, excluding gross unrealized holding loss,
and fair value of held to maturity securities on June 30, 2022 and
December 31, 2021 are as follows:

Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under ASC 740, “Income
Taxes.” ASC 740, Income Taxes, requires the recognition of deferred
tax assets and liabilities for both the expected impact of
differences between the unaudited condensed 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. As of June 30, 2022
and December 31, 2021, the Company’s deferred tax asset had a full
valuation allowance recorded against it. Our effective tax rate was
2.14% and 0.54% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022,
respectively, and 0.00% for the period from April 19, 2021
(inception) through June 30, 2021. The effective tax rate differs
from the statutory tax rate of 21% for the six months ended June
30, 2022, due to changes in fair of warrant liabilities, and the
valuation allowance on the deferred tax assets.
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.
The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related
to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. There were no
unrecognized tax benefits and no amounts accrued for interest and
penalties as of June 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 has identified the United States as its only
“major” tax jurisdiction. The Company is subject to income taxation
by major taxing authorities since inception. These examinations may
include questioning the timing and amount of deductions, the nexus
of income among various tax jurisdictions and compliance with
federal and state tax laws. The Company’s management does not
expect that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits will
materially change over the next twelve months.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities
approximates the carrying amounts represented in the accompanying
condensed balance sheets, primarily due to their short-term nature,
except for the warrant liabilities.
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received for
sale of an asset or paid for transfer of a liability, in an orderly
transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
GAAP establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which
prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. The hierarchy
gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active
markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements)
and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3
measurements). The Company’s financial instruments are classified
as either Level 1, Level 2 or Level 3. These tiers
include:
|
● |
Level
1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices (unadjusted)
for identical instruments in active markets; |
|
● |
Level
2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets
that are either directly or indirectly observable such as quoted
prices for similar instruments in active markets or quoted prices
for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not
active; and |
|
● |
Level
3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data
exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own
assumptions, such as valuations derived from valuation techniques
in which one or more significant inputs or significant value
drivers are unobservable. |
Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company evaluates its financial instruments, such as
warrants, to determine if such instruments are derivatives or
contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives in accordance
with ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging”. Derivative
instruments are initially recorded at fair value on the grant date
and re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair
value reported in the unaudited condensed statements of operations.
Derivative assets and liabilities are classified in the condensed
balance sheets as current or non-current based on whether or
not net-cash settlement or conversion of the instrument could
be required within 12 months of the balance sheet
date.
Warrant Liabilities
The Company accounts for the 17,404,250 warrants
issued in connection with the IPO (the 9,487,500 Public
Warrants, the 7,347,500 Private Placement Warrants, and
the 569,250 Representative Warrants inclusive of the
underwriters’ over-allotment option) in accordance with the
guidance contained in ASC 815-40. Such guidance provides that
because the warrants do not meet the criteria for equity treatment
thereunder, each warrant must be recorded as a liability.
Accordingly, the Company has classified each warrant as a liability
at its fair value. This liability is subject to
re-measurement at each balance sheet date. With each such
re-measurement, the warrant liabilities will be adjusted to fair
value, with the change in fair value recognized in the Company’s
unaudited condensed statements of operations (See Note
8).
Offering Costs associated with the Initial Public
Offering
The Company complies with the requirements of ASC
340-10-S99-1, SEC Staff Accounting bulletin Topic 5A – “Expenses of
Offering”, and SEC Staff Accounting bulletin Topic 5T – “Accounting
for Expenses or Liabilities Paid by Principal Stockholder(s)”.
Offering costs consist principally of professional and registration
fees incurred through the balance sheet date that are related to
the IPO. Offering costs directly attributable to the issuance of an
equity contract to be classified in equity are recorded as a
reduction of equity. Offering costs for equity contracts that are
classified as assets and liabilities are expensed immediately. The
Company incurred offering costs amounting to $7,959,726 as a
result of the IPO (consisting of $3,450,000 of underwriting
fees, $3,570,576 of Representative’s Shares cost,
$259,527 of Representative’s Warrants cost and
$679,623 of other offering costs). The Company recorded
$7,701,178 of offering costs as a reduction of temporary
equity in connection with the common stock included in the Units.
The Company immediately expensed $258,548 of offering costs in
connection with the Public Warrants, Private Placement Warrants and
Representative’s Warrants that were classified as
liabilities.
Net Income (Loss) Per Common Stock
The Company has two categories of shares, which are referred
to as common stock subject to possible redemption and common stock.
Earnings and losses are shared pro rata between the two categories
of shares. The 17,404,250 potential shares of common
stock for outstanding warrants to purchase the Company’s shares
were excluded from diluted earnings per share for the three and six
months ended June 30, 2022 and for the period from April 19, 2021
(inception) through June 30, 2021 because the warrants are
contingently exercisable, and the contingencies have not yet been
met. As a result, diluted net income (loss) per share of common
stock is the same as basic net income (loss) per share of common
stock for the periods presented. The table below presents a
reconciliation of the numerator and denominator used to compute
basic and diluted net income (loss) per share for each category of
common stock:

the underwriters (see Note 5). |
Common Stock Subject to Possible Redemption
The Company’s common stock sold as part of the Units in the
IPO (“public common stock”) contain a redemption feature which
allows for the redemption of such public shares in connection with
the Company’s liquidation, or if there is a stockholder vote or
tender offer in connection with the Company’s initial Business
Combination. In accordance with ASC 480-10-S99, the Company
classifies public common stock subject to redemption outside of
permanent equity as the redemption provisions are not solely within
the control of the Company. The public common stock sold as part of
the Units in the IPO was issued with other freestanding instruments
(i.e., Public Warrants) and as such, the initial carrying value of
public common stock classified as temporary equity was the
allocated proceeds determined in accordance with ASC 470-20. The
public common stock is subject to ASC 480-10-S99 and is
currently not redeemable as the redemption is contingent upon the
occurrence of events mentioned above. According to ASC
480-10-S99-15, no subsequent adjustment is needed if it is not
probable that the instrument will become redeemable.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards
Management does not believe that any other recently issued,
but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements, if currently
adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s unaudited
condensed financial statements.
Note 3 - Initial Public Offering
Public Units
On December 22, 2021, the Company sold 18,975,000 Units,
(which included 2,475,000 Units issued pursuant to the full
exercise of the over-allotment option) at a purchase price of
$10.00 per Unit. Each unit that the Company is offering has a price
of $10.00 and consists of one share of common stock, one right, and
one-half of one redeemable warrant. Each right entitles the
holder thereof to receive one-tenth (1/10) of one share of
common stock upon the consummation of an initial business
combination. Each whole warrant entitles the holder thereof to
purchase one share of common stock at a price of $11.50 per share,
subject to adjustment as described herein.
Public Warrants
Each whole warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share
of common stock at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to
adjustment as discussed herein. In addition, if (x) the
Company issues additional shares of common stock or
equity-linked securities for capital raising purposes in
connection with the closing of the initial Business Combination at
an issue price or effective issue price of less than $9.20 per
share of common stock (with such issue price or effective issue
price to be determined in good faith by the board of directors and,
in the case of any such issuance to the initial stockholders or
their affiliates, without taking into account any founder shares
held by such stockholders or their 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 funding the initial Business Combination (net of
redemptions), and (z) the volume weighted average trading
price of the common stock during the 20 trading day period starting
on the trading day prior to the day on which the Company
consummates the Business Combination (such price, the “Market
Value”) is below $9.20 per share, the exercise price shall be
adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 115% of the
higher of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price, and the
$18.00 per share redemption trigger price described in the
section “Redemption of warrants” will be adjusted (to the nearest
cent) to be equal to 180% of the higher of the Market Value
and the Newly Issued Price.
The warrants will become exercisable on the later of
12 months from the closing of the IPO or 30 days after
the completion of its initial Business Combination, and will expire
five years after the completion of the Company’s initial Business
Combination, at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, or earlier upon
redemption or liquidation.
The Company has agreed that as soon as practicable, but in no
event later than 15 business days after the closing of the initial
Business Combination, the Company will use its reasonable best
efforts to file, and within 60 business days after the closing of
the initial Business Combination, to have declared effective, a
registration statement relating to those shares of common stock,
and to maintain a current prospectus relating to such shares of
common stock until the warrants expire or are redeemed.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a registration statement covering
the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants
is not effective within the above specified period following the
consummation of the initial Business Combination, warrant holders
may, until such time as there is an effective registration
statement and during any period when the Company shall have failed
to maintain an effective registration statement, exercise warrants
on a cashless basis pursuant to the exemption provided by
Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or
the Securities Act, provided that such exemption is available. If
that exemption, or another exemption, is not available, holders
will not be able to exercise their warrants on a cashless
basis.
Redemption of Warrants
Once the warrants become exercisable, the Company may redeem
the outstanding warrants:
|
● |
in
whole and not in part; |
|
● |
at a
price of $0.01 per warrant; |
|
● |
upon
a minimum of 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption (the
“30-day redemption period”); |
|
● |
if,
and only if, the last sale price of the common stock equals or
exceeds $18.00 per share 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. |
If the Company calls the warrants for redemption as described
above, management will have the option to require all holders that
wish to exercise warrants to do so on a “cashless basis.” In
determining whether to require all holders to exercise their
warrants on a “cashless basis,” management will consider, among
other factors, the Company’s cash position, the number of warrants
that are outstanding and the dilutive effect on the stockholders of
issuing the maximum number of shares of common stock issuable upon
the exercise of the warrants. In such event, each holder would pay
the exercise price by surrendering the warrants for that number of
shares of common stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing
(x) the product of the number of shares of common stock
underlying the warrants, multiplied by the difference between the
exercise price of the warrants and the “fair market value” (defined
below) by (y) the fair market value. The “fair market value”
shall mean the average reported last sale price of the common stock
for the 10 trading days ending on the third trading day prior to
the date on which the notice of redemption is sent to the holders
of warrants.
Note 4 - Private Placement
The Company’s Sponsor, I-Bankers and Dawson James have
purchased an aggregate of 7,347,500 Private Placement
Warrants (which included 697,500 Private Placement
Warrants issued pursuant to the full exercise of the over-allotment
option) at a price of $1.00 per warrant ($7,347,500 in
the aggregate) in a private placement that closed simultaneously
with the closing of the IPO. Of such
amount, 5,162,500 Private Placement Warrants were
purchased by the Sponsor and 2,185,000 Private Placement
Warrants were purchased by I-Bankers and Dawson
James.
The Private Placement Warrants are identical to the warrants
included in the Units sold in the IPO, except that the Private
Placement Warrants: (i) will not be redeemable by the Company
and (ii) may be exercised for cash or on a cashless basis, in
each case so long as they are held by the initial purchasers or any
of their permitted transferees. If the Private Placement Warrants
are held by holders other than the initial purchasers or any of
their permitted transferees, the Private Placement Warrants will be
redeemable by the Company and exercisable by the holders on the
same basis as the warrants included in the Units being sold in the
IPO.
Note 5 - Related Party Transactions
Founder Shares
In April 2021, the Sponsor paid $25,000, or
approximately $0.005 per share, to cover certain of the
offering costs in exchange for an aggregate
of 5,175,000 shares of common stock, par value
$0.0001 per share (the “Founder Shares”). In October 2021, the
Sponsor irrevocably surrendered to the Company for cancellation and
for no consideration 862,500 shares of common
stock. On December 20, 2021, the Company effected a
1.1- for-1 stock dividend of its common stock, resulting in
the Sponsor holding an aggregate of 4,743,750 shares of
common stock. The Founder Shares include an aggregate of up
to 618,750 shares subject to forfeiture if the
over-allotment option is not exercised by the underwriters in
full. On December 22, 2021, the over-allotment option was fully
exercised and such shares are no longer subject to
forfeiture.
The Sponsor has agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of
their Founder Shares until the earlier to occur of: (A) one
year after the completion of the initial Business Combination or
(B) the date on which the Company completes a liquidation,
merger, stock exchange or other similar transaction after the
initial Business Combination that results in all of the Company’s
public stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of
common stock for cash, securities or other property (the
“Lock-up”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the last sale price
of the Company’s common stock equals or exceeds $12.00 per
share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends,
reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading
days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least
150 days after the initial Business Combination, the Founder
Shares will be released from the Lock-up.
Promissory Note - Related Party
On April 19, 2021, the Company issued an unsecured
promissory note to the Sponsor, pursuant to which the Company may
borrow up to an aggregate principal amount of $150,000 to be
used for a portion of the expenses of the IPO. This loan is
non-interest bearing, unsecured and was to be due at the
earlier of September 30, 2021 or the closing of the IPO. On
November 5, 2021, the Company amended the promissory note to
increase the principal amount up to $200,000 with a due date
at the earlier of April 30, 2022 or the closing of the
IPO.
Through the IPO, the Company borrowed $200,000 under the
promissory note and an additional $4,841 was advanced from the
Sponsor. These amounts were repaid in full upon the closing of the
IPO out of the offering proceeds that had been allocated to the
payment of offering expenses (other than underwriting commissions).
The Company paid $25,000 in excess which was owed back to the
Company upon the closing of the IPO, and was returned by the
Sponsor on June 15, 2022.
Related Party Loans
In order to finance transaction costs in connection with an
intended initial Business Combination, the initial stockholders or
an affiliate of the initial stockholders or certain of the
Company’s officers and directors may, but are not obligated to,
loan the Company funds as may be required (the “Working Capital
Loans”). If the Company completes the initial Business Combination,
the Company would repay such loaned amounts out of the proceeds of
the Trust Account released to the Company. Otherwise, such loans
would be repaid only out of funds held outside the Trust Account.
In the event that the initial Business Combination does not close,
the Company may use a portion of the working capital held outside
the Trust Account to repay such loaned amounts but no proceeds from
the Trust Account would be used to repay such loaned amounts. Up to
$1,500,000 of such loans may be convertible, at the option of
the lender, into warrants at a price of $1.00 per warrant of
the post Business Combination entity. The warrants would be
identical to the Private Placement Warrants, including as to
exercise price, exercisability and exercise period. At June 30,
2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had no borrowings under the
Working Capital Loans.
Administrative Service Fee
Commencing on the effective date of the IPO, the Company
began paying its Sponsor a total of $5,000 per month for
office space, utilities, secretarial support and other
administrative and consulting services. Upon completion of the
Company’s Business Combination or its liquidation, the Company will
cease paying these monthly fees. For the three and six months ended
June 30, 2022, $15,000 and $33,387, respectively, had been incurred
relating to the administrative service fee. As of June 30, 2022,
$5,000 relating to the administrative service fee was not paid yet
and recorded as due to related party.
Extension Loans
The Company will have until 15 months from the closing
of the IPO to consummate an initial Business Combination. However,
if the Company anticipates that it may not be able to consummate
the initial Business Combination within 15 months, it may, by
resolution of the Company’s board if requested by the Sponsor,
extend the period of time to combination up to two times, each by
an additional three months (for a total of up to 21 months to
complete a Business Combination), subject to the Sponsor depositing
additional funds into the Trust Account. In order to extend the
time available for the Company to consummate its initial Business
Combination, the Sponsor or their affiliates or designees, upon
five days advance notice prior to the applicable deadline, must
deposit into the Trust Account for each three-month extension,
$1,897,500 ($0.10 per share) on or prior to the date of
the applicable deadline, up to an aggregate $3,795,000 or
approximately $0.20 per share. Any such payments would be made
in the form of a loan. Any such loans will be
non-interest bearing and payable upon the consummation of the
initial Business Combination.
If the Company completes its initial Business Combination, it
would repay such loaned amounts out of the proceeds of the Trust
Account released to the Company. If the Company does not complete a
Business Combination, it will not repay such loans. Furthermore,
the letter agreement with the Company’s initial stockholders
contains a provision pursuant to which the Sponsor has agreed to
waive its right to be repaid for such loans out of the funds held
in the Trust Account in the event that the Company does not
complete a Business Combination. In the event that the Company
receives notice from the Sponsor five days prior to the applicable
deadline of its wish for the Company to effect an extension, the
Company intends to issue a press release announcing such intention
at least three days prior to the applicable deadline. In addition,
the Company intends to issue a press release the day after the
applicable deadline announcing whether or not the funds had been
timely deposited.
Note 6 - Commitments and Contingencies
Registration Rights
The holders of the Founder Shares, the Private Placement
Warrants and warrants that may be issued upon conversion of Working
Capital Loans (and any underlying securities) are entitled to
registration rights pursuant to a registration rights agreement
signed on the closing date of the IPO requiring the Company to
register such securities for resale. The holders of these
securities are entitled to make up to three demands, excluding
short form demands, that the Company registers such securities. In
addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights
with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to the
completion of the initial Business Combination. However, the
registration rights agreement provides that the Company will not
permit any registration statement filed under the Securities Act to
become effective until termination of the applicable
Lock-up period described in Note 5. The Company will bear the
expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such
registration statements.
Underwriters Agreement
The underwriters had a 30-day option from the date of
IPO to purchase up to an additional 2,475,000 units to
cover over-allotments, if any. On December 22, 2021, the
over-allotment was fully exercised.
The underwriters received a cash underwriting discount of
approximately 1.82% of the gross proceeds of the IPO, or
$3,450,000.
Business Combination Marketing Agreement
Under a Business Combination marketing agreement, the Company
engaged I-Bankers and Dawson James as advisors in connection with
the Business Combination to assist the Company in holding meetings
with the stockholders to discuss the potential Business Combination
and the target business’s attributes, introduce the Company to
potential investors that are interested in purchasing the Company’s
securities in connection with the potential Business Combination,
assist the Company in obtaining stockholder approval for the
Business Combination and assist the Company with its press releases
and public filings in connection with the Business Combination. The
Company is obligated to pay I-Bankers and Dawson James a cash fee
for such marketing services upon the consummation of the initial
Business Combination in an amount of 3.68% of the gross
proceeds of the IPO, or $6,986,250.
Representative’s Shares
On December 22, 2021, the Company
issued 450,000 shares (Representative Shares) of common
stock (which included 37,500 Representative Shares issued
pursuant to the full exercise of the over-allotment option) at the
consummation of the IPO to I-Bankers and Dawson James (and/or
their designees). I-Bankers and Dawson James (and/or their
designees) have agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any such
shares until the completion of the initial Business Combination. In
addition, I-Bankers and Dawson James (and/or their designees)
have agreed (i) to waive their redemption rights with respect
to such shares in connection with the completion of the initial
Business Combination and (ii) to waive their rights to
liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to
such shares if the Company fails to complete its initial Business
Combination within the Combination Period. The fair value of the
Representative’s Shares issued are recognized as offering
costs directly attributable to the issuance of an equity contract
to be classified in equity and are recorded as a reduction of
equity (see Note 1). The fair value of the Representative’s
Shares of $3,570,576 was determined utilizing a Monte Carlo
simulation with the following inputs at December 22,

Representative’s Warrants
The Company granted to I-Bankers and Dawson James
(and/or their designees) 569,250 warrants (which
included 74,250 warrants issued pursuant to the full
exercise of the over-allotment option) exercisable at
$11.50 per share (or an aggregate exercise price of
$6,546,375) at the closing of the IPO. The Representative Warrants
issued are recognized as derivative liabilities in accordance with
ASC 815-40 and recorded as liabilities at fair value each reporting
period (see Notes 1 and 8). The warrants may be exercised for cash
or on a cashless basis, at the holder’s option, at any time during
the period commencing on the later of the first anniversary of the
effective date of the registration statement of which the IPO forms
a part and the closing of the initial Business Combination and
terminating on the fifth anniversary of such effectiveness date.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, I-Bankers and Dawson
James have agreed that neither they nor their designees will be
permitted to exercise the warrants after the five
year anniversary of the effective date of the registration
statement of which the IPO forms a part. The warrants and such
shares purchased pursuant to the warrants have been deemed
compensation by FINRA and are therefore subject to a
lock-up for a period of 180 days immediately following
the date of the effectiveness of the registration statement of
which the IPO forms a part pursuant to FINRA Rule 5110(e)(1).
Pursuant to FINRA Rule 5110(e)(1), these securities will not
be the subject of any hedging, short sale, derivative, put or call
transaction that would result in the economic disposition of the
securities by any person for a period of 180 days immediately
following the effective date of the registration statement of which
the IPO forms a part, nor may they be sold, transferred, assigned,
pledged or hypothecated for a period of 180 days immediately
following the effective date of the registration statement of which
the IPO forms a part except to any underwriter and selected dealer
participating in the offering and their bona fide officers or
partners. The warrants grant to holders demand and “piggy back”
rights for periods of five and seven years, respectively, from the
effective date of the registration statement of which the IPO forms
a part with respect to the registration under the Securities Act of
the shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants. The Company will
bear all fees and expenses attendant to registering the securities,
other than underwriting commissions, which will be paid for by the
holders themselves. The exercise price and number of shares
issuable upon exercise of the warrants may be adjusted in certain
circumstances including in the event of a share dividend, or the
Company’s recapitalization, reorganization, merger or
consolidation. However, the warrants will not be adjusted for
issuances of shares at a price below its exercise price. The
Company will have no obligation to net cash settle the exercise of
the warrants. The holder of the warrants will not be entitled to
exercise the warrants for cash unless a registration statement
covering the securities underlying the warrants is effective or an
exemption from registration is available.
Note 7 - Stockholders’ Deficit
Preferred stock — The Company is
authorized to issue 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock
with a par value of $0.0001 and with such designations, rights
and preferences as may be determined from time to time by the
Company’s board of directors. As of June 30, 2022 and December
31, 2021, there was no preferred stock issued or
outstanding.
Common Stock — The Company is authorized
to issue a total of 100,000,000 shares of common stock at
par value of $0.0001 each. In April 2021, the Company
issued 5,175,000 shares of common stock to its Sponsor
for $25,000, or approximately $0.005 per share. In October
2021, the Sponsor irrevocably surrendered to the Company for
cancellation and for no consideration 862,500 shares of
common stock. On December 20, 2021, the Company
effected a 1.1- for-1 stock dividend of its common stock,
resulting in an aggregate of 4,743,750 Founder Shares
issued and outstanding. On December 22, 2021, the Company
has also issued 450,000 shares (Representative’s Shares)
of common stock (which included 37,500 Representative
Shares issued pursuant to the full exercise of the over-allotment
option) at the consummation of the IPO to I-Bankers and Dawson
James (and/or their designees). As of June 30, 2022 and
December 31, 2021, there were 5,193,750 shares of common
stock issued and outstanding, excluding 18,975,000 shares
of common stock subject to redemption.
Common stockholders of record are entitled to one vote for
each share held on all matters to be voted on by stockholders.
Unless specified in the Company’s amended and restated certificate
of incorporation or bylaws, or as required by applicable provisions
of the DGCL or applicable stock exchange rules, the affirmative
vote of a majority of the Company’s common stock that are voted is
required to approve any such matter voted on by the stockholders.
There is no cumulative voting with respect to the election of
directors, with the result that the holders of more than 50%
of the shares voted for the election of directors can elect all of
the directors (prior to consummation of the initial Business
Combination). The Company’s stockholders are entitled to receive
ratable dividends when, as and if declared by the board of
directors out of funds legally available therefor.

The Public Warrants, the Private Placement Warrants and the
Representative’s Warrants were accounted for as liabilities in
accordance with ASC 815-40 and are presented within liabilities on
the condensed balance sheets. The warrant liabilities are measured
at fair value at inception and on a recurring basis, with changes
in fair value presented within change in fair value of warrant
liabilities in the unaudited condensed statements of
operations.
The Company utilized a Monte Carlo simulation model for the
initial valuation of the Public Warrants and the subsequent
measurement at December 31, 2021. The subsequent measurement of the
Public Warrants at June 30, 2022 was classified as Level 1 due to
the use of an observable market quote in an active market. As of
June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the aggregate value of Public
Warrants was $1,091,063 and $3,890,177, respectively.
The Company uses a Monte Carlo simulation model to value the
Private Placement Warrants and the Representative’s Warrants. The
Company allocated the proceeds received from (i) the sale of Units
(which is inclusive of one shares of Common Stock and one-half of
one Public Warrant) and (ii) the sale of Private Placement
Warrants, first to the warrants based on their fair values as
determined at initial measurement, with the remaining proceeds
allocated to Common Stock subject to possible redemption (temporary
equity) based on their relative fair values at the initial
measurement date. The Private Placement Warrants and the
Representative’s Warrants were classified within Level 3 of the
fair value hierarchy at the measurement dates due to the use of
unobservable inputs. Inherent in pricing models are assumptions
related to expected share-price volatility, expected life and
risk-free interest rate. The Company estimates the volatility of
its common stock based on historical volatility that matches the
expected remaining life of the warrants. The risk-free interest
rate is based on the U.S. Treasury zero-coupon yield curve on the
grant date for a maturity similar to the expected remaining life of
the warrants. The expected life of the warrants is assumed to be
equivalent to their remaining contractual term.
The key inputs into the Monte Carlo simulation model for the
warrant liabilities were as follows at June 30, 2022 and December
31, 2021:

of the reporting period. There was a transfer out of Level 3
to Level 1 for the fair value of the Public Warrants when they
began to trade separately from the Units during the three months
ended March 31, 2022.
Note 9 - Subsequent Events
The Company evaluated subsequent events and transactions that
occurred after the balance sheet date up to the date that the
unaudited condensed financial statements were issued. Based on the
Company’s review, the Company did not identify any subsequent
events that would have required adjustment or disclosure in the
unaudited condensed financial statements.
Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations.
References to the “Company,” “NorthView Acquisition Corp.,” “our,”
“us” or “we” refer to NorthView Acquisition Corp. The following
discussion and analysis of the Company’s financial condition and
results of operations should be read in conjunction with the
unaudited condensed financial statements and the notes thereto
contained elsewhere in this report. Certain information contained
in the discussion and analysis set forth below includes
forward-looking statements that involve risks and
uncertainties.
Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes forward-looking
statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act
of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). We have based these
forward-looking statements on our current expectations and
projections about future events. These forward-looking statements
are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and
assumptions about us that may cause our actual results, levels of
activity, performance or achievements to be materially different
from any future results, levels of activity, performance or
achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking
statements. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking
statements by terminology such as “may,” “should,” “could,”
“would,” “expect,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,”
“continue,” or the negative of such terms or other similar
expressions. Factors that might cause or contribute to such a
discrepancy include, but are not limited to, those described in our
other Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) filings.
Overview
We are a blank check company incorporated on April 19, 2021 as a
Delaware corporation and formed for the purpose of effecting a
merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase,
reorganization or similar business combination with one or more
businesses (a “Business Combination”). We consummated our initial
public offering on December 22, 2021 and are currently in the
process of locating suitable targets for our business combination.
We intend to use the cash proceeds from our Public Offering and the
Private Placement described below as well as additional issuances,
if any, of our capital stock, debt or a combination of cash, stock
and debt to complete the Business Combination.
We expect to incur significant costs in the pursuit of our initial
Business Combination. We cannot assure you that our plans to raise
capital or to complete our initial Business Combination will be
successful.
Results of Operations
As of June 30, 2022, we had not commenced any operations. All
activity for the six months ended June 30, 2022 relates to our
formation and the Initial Public Offering, and, subsequent to the
IPO, identifying a target company for a Business Combination. We
have neither engaged in any operations nor generated any operating
revenues to date. We will not generate any operating revenues until
after the completion of our initial Business Combination, at the
earliest. We will generate non-operating income in the form of
interest income and unrealized gains from the cash and marketable
securities held in the Trust Account. We expect to incur increased
expenses as a result of being a public company (for legal,
financial reporting, accounting and auditing compliance), as well
as for due diligence expenses.
For the three months ended June 30, 2022, we had net income of
$1,212,363, which consisted of a gain of $1,294,594 for the change
in fair value of our warrant liabilities and interest income of
$161,816, offset by formation and operating costs of $217,525 and
income tax provision of $26,522. We are required to revalue our
liability-classified warrants at the end of each reporting period
and reflect in the unaudited condensed statements of operations a
gain or loss from the change in fair value of the warrant
liabilities in the period in which the change occurred.
For the six months ended June 30, 2022, we had net income of
$4,921,380, which consisted of a gain of $5,172,523 for the change
in fair value of our warrant liabilities and interest income of
$234,500, offset by formation and operating costs of $459,121 and
income tax provision of $26,522. We are required to revalue our
liability-classified warrants at the end of each reporting period
and reflect in the unaudited condensed statements of operations a
gain or loss from the change in fair value of the warrant
liabilities in the period in which the change occurred.
For the period from April 19, 2021 (inception) through June 30,
2021, we had a net loss of $338 which consisted of a formation and
operating costs of $338.
Liquidity and Going Concern
As of June 30, 2022, we had approximately $0.5 million in cash and
working capital of approximately $0.8 million.
For the six months ended June 30, 2022, cash used in operating
activities was $293,986. Net income of $4,921,380 was impacted
primarily by changes in operating assets and liabilities of
$191,657, offset by trust interest income of $234,500 and change in
fair value of our warrant liabilities of $5,172,523.
Prior to the completion of the initial public offering, our
liquidity needs had been satisfied through a capital contribution
from the sponsor of $25,000 for the founder shares to cover certain
of the offering costs and the loan under an unsecured promissory
note from the sponsor of $204,841, which was fully paid upon the
initial public offering. Subsequent to the consummation of the
initial public offering and private placement, our liquidity needs
have been satisfied through the proceeds from the consummation of
the private placement not held in the trust account.
In addition, in order to finance transaction costs in connection
with an intended business combination, the initial stockholders or
an affiliate of the initial stockholders or certain of our officers
and directors may, but are not obligated to, provide us working
capital loans. To date, there were no amounts outstanding under any
working capital loans.
We have until March 22, 2023 to consummate a Business Combination.
It is uncertain that we will be able to consummate a Business
Combination by March 22, 2023. If a Business Combination is not
consummated by the required date, there will be a mandatory
liquidation and subsequent dissolution. In connection with our
assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with the
authoritative guidance in Financial Accounting Standards Board
(“FASB”) Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-15, “Disclosure
of Uncertainties About an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going
Concern,” management has determined that mandatory liquidation, and
subsequent dissolution, should us be unable to complete a business
combination, raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue
as a going concern for the next twelve months from the issuance of
these unaudited condensed financial statements. No
adjustments have been made to the carrying amounts of assets and
liabilities should we be required to liquidate after March 22,
2023.
Off-Balance Sheet Financing Arrangements
We did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as of June 30,
2022 and December 31, 2021.
Contractual Obligations
As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we did not have any
long-term debt, capital or operating lease obligations.
We entered into an administrative services agreement with our
sponsor pursuant to which we pay for office space and secretarial
and administrative services provided to members of our management
team, in an amount of $5,000 per month. For the three and six
months ended June 30, 2022, $15,000 and $33,387, respectively, had
been incurred relating to the administrative service fee. As of
June 30, 2022, $5,000 relating to the administrative service fee
was not paid yet and recorded as due to related party.
We have engaged I-Bankers and Dawson James as advisors in
connection with our acquiring, engaging in a share exchange, share
reconstruction and amalgamation with, purchasing all or
substantially all of the assets of, entering into contractual
arrangements with, or engaging in any other similar Business
Combination with one or more businesses or entities. We have agreed
to pay I-Bankers and Dawson James for such services a fee equal to
3.68% of the gross proceeds of the Public Offering.
Critical Accounting Policies
Management’s discussion and analysis of our results of operations
and liquidity and capital resources are based on our financial
information. We describe our significant accounting policies in
Note 2 – Significant Accounting Policies, of the Notes to Financial
Statements included in this report. Our unaudited condensed
financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S.
GAAP. Certain of our accounting policies require that management
apply significant judgments in defining the appropriate assumptions
integral to financial estimates. On an ongoing basis, management
reviews the accounting policies, assumptions, estimates and
judgments to ensure that our unaudited condensed financial
statements are presented fairly and in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
Judgments are based on historical experience, terms of existing
contracts, industry trends and information available from outside
sources, as appropriate. However, by their nature, judgments are
subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty, and, therefore,
actual results could differ from our estimates.
Warrant Liabilities
We account for the warrants issued in connection with the IPO in
accordance with the guidance contained in ASC 815-40. Such guidance
provides that because the warrants do not meet the criteria for
equity treatment thereunder, each warrant must be recorded as a
liability. Accordingly, we classified each warrant as a liability
at its fair value. This liability is subject to
re-measurement at each balance sheet date. With each such
re-measurement, the warrant liabilities will be adjusted to fair
value, with the change in fair value recognized in our unaudited
condensed statements of operations.
Net Income (Loss) Per Common Stock
We have two categories of shares, which are referred to as
common stock subject to possible redemption and common stock.
Earnings and losses are shared pro rata between the two categories
of shares. The 17,404,250 potential shares of common
stock for outstanding warrants to purchase our shares were excluded
from diluted earnings per share for the three and six months ended
June 30, 2022 and for the period from April 19, 2021 (inception)
through June 30, 2021 because the warrants are contingently
exercisable, and the contingencies have not yet been met. As a
result, diluted net income (loss) per share of common stock is the
same as basic net income (loss) per share of common stock for the
periods presented.
Common Stock Subject to Possible Redemption
Our common stock sold as part of the Units in the IPO (“public
common stock”) contain a redemption feature which allows for the
redemption of such public shares in connection with our
liquidation, or if there is a stockholder vote or tender offer in
connection with the initial Business Combination. In accordance
with ASC 480-10-S99, we classify public common stock subject to
redemption outside of permanent equity as the redemption provisions
are not solely within our control. The public common stock sold as
part of the Units in the IPO was issued with other freestanding
instruments (i.e., Public Warrants) and as such, the initial
carrying value of public common stock classified as temporary
equity was the allocated proceeds determined in accordance with ASC
470-20. The public common stock is subject to ASC
480-10-S99 and is currently not redeemable as the redemption
is contingent upon the occurrence of events mentioned above.
According to ASC 480-10-S99-15, no subsequent adjustment is needed
if it is not probable that the instrument will become
redeemable.
Recent Accounting Standards
Our management does not believe that any recently issued, but not
yet effective, accounting standards if currently adopted would have
a material effect on the accompanying unaudited condensed financial
statements.
JOBS Act
The JOBS Act contains provisions that, among other
things, relax certain reporting requirements for qualifying public
companies. We qualify as an “emerging growth company” under
the JOBS Act and are allowed to comply with new or
revised accounting pronouncements based on the effective date for
private (not publicly traded) companies. We are electing to delay
the adoption of new or revised accounting standards, and as a
result, we may not comply with new or revised accounting standards
on the relevant dates on which adoption of such standards is
required for non-emerging growth companies. As a result, our
unaudited condensed financial statements may not be comparable to
companies that comply with new or revised accounting pronouncements
as of public company effective dates.
Additionally, we are in the process of evaluating the benefits of
relying on the other reduced reporting requirements provided by
the JOBS Act. Subject to certain conditions set forth in
the JOBS Act, if, as an “emerging growth company,” we choose
to rely on such exemptions we may not be required to, among other
things, (i) provide an independent registered public accounting
firm’s attestation report on our system of internal controls over
financial reporting pursuant to Section 404, (ii) provide all of
the compensation disclosure that may be required of
non-emerging growth public companies under the
Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act,
(iii) comply with any requirement that may be adopted by the PCAOB
regarding mandatory audit firm rotation or a supplement to the
independent registered public accounting firm’s report providing
additional information about the audit and the financial statements
(auditor discussion and analysis), and (iv) disclose certain
executive compensation related items such as the correlation
between executive compensation and performance and comparisons of
the CEO’s compensation to median employee compensation. These
exemptions will apply for a period of five years following the
completion of our initial public offering or until we are no longer
an “emerging growth company,” whichever is earlier.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About
Market Risk
We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the
Exchange Act and are not required to provide the information
otherwise required under this item.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures Evaluation of Disclosure
Controls and Procedures
Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that
information required to be disclosed by us in our Exchange Act
reports is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the
time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such
information is accumulated and communicated to our management,
including our principal executive officer and principal financial
officer or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to
allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management,
including our principal executive officer and principal financial
and accounting officer, we conducted an evaluation of the
effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June
30, 2022, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)
under the Exchange Act. Based upon their evaluation, our principal
executive officer and principal financial and accounting officer,
concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined
in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) were
effective as of June 30, 2022.
We do not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will
prevent all errors and all instances of fraud. Disclosure controls
and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can
provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the
objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met.
Further, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must
reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the
benefits must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the
inherent limitations in all disclosure controls and procedures, no
evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures can provide
absolute assurance that we have detected all our control
deficiencies and instances of fraud, if any. The design of
disclosure controls and procedures also is based partly on certain
assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be
no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated
goals under all potential future conditions.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial
reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)
of the Exchange Act) during the most recent fiscal quarter that
have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially
affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
None.
Item 1A. Risk Factors.
Factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially
from those in this report include the risk factors described in our
Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021. As of
the date of this Report, there have been no material changes to the
risk factors disclosed in our Form 10-K for the period ended
December 31, 2021 filed with the SEC.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of
Proceeds.
On December 22, 2021, we consummated our Initial Public Offering of
18,975,000 Units, which included 2,475,000 Units issued pursuant to
the full exercise of the over-allotment option granted to the
underwriters, generating gross proceeds of $189,750,000. I-Bankers
Securities, Inc. and Dawson James Securities, Inc. acted as joint
book-running managers of the Initial Public Offering. The
securities in the offering were registered under the Securities Act
on registration statements on Form S-1 (Nos. 333-257156
and 333-261763). The Securities and Exchange Commission declared
the registration statement effective on December 20, 2021.
Simultaneous with the consummation of the Initial Public Offering,
we consummated the private placement of an aggregate of 7,347,500
Private Placement Warrants to the Sponsor and I-Bankers and Dawson
James at a price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant, generating
total proceeds of $7,347,500.
The Private Placement Warrants are identical to the Warrants sold
in the IPO except that the Private Placement Warrants: (i) are not
redeemable by the Company and (ii) may be exercised for cash or on
a cashless basis, in each case so long as they are held by the
initial purchasers or any of their permitted transferees.
We paid a total of $3,450,000 in underwriting discounts and
commissions and $609,623 for other costs and expenses related to
the IPO. I-Bankers and Dawson James, representatives of the several
underwriters in the IPO, received a portion of the underwriting
discounts and commissions related to the IPO. We also repaid the
promissory note to the Sponsor from the proceeds of the IPO. After
deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions and incurred
offering costs, the total net proceeds from our IPO and the sale of
the private placement warrants was $193,037,877, of which
$191,647,500 (or $10.10 per unit sold in the IPO) was placed in the
trust account. Other than as described above, no payments were made
by us to directors, officers or persons owning ten percent or more
of our common stock or to their associates, or to our
affiliates.
Item 3. Defaults Upon Senior Securities.
None.
