REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of
Amanat Acquisition Corp:
Opinion on the Financial Statement
We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Amanat Acquisition Corp (the "Company") as of May 20, 2026, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statement"). In our opinion, the financial statement presents fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of May 20, 2026, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinion
The financial statement is the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's financial statement based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (the "PCAOB") and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statement is free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audit, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statement, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statement. Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statement. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
/s/ WithumSmith+Brown, PC
We have served as the Company's auditor since 2026.

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND PLAN OF BUSINESS OPERATIONS
Amanat Acquisition Corp (the "Company") is a blank check company incorporated as a Cayman Islands exempted company on January 13, 2026. The Company was incorporated for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities (a "Business Combination"). The Company will have 24 months from the closing of its initial public offering to complete the initial Business Combination (the "Completion Window"). The Company has not selected any specific Business Combination target and the Company has not, nor has anyone on its behalf, engaged in any substantive discussions, directly or indirectly, with any Business Combination target with respect to an initial Business Combination with the Company.
As of May 20, 2026, the Company had not commenced any operations. All activity for the period from January 13, 2026 (inception) through May 20, 2026 relates to the Company's formation and the initial public offering, which is described below. The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of a Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company will generate non-operating income in the form of interest income from the proceeds derived from the Initial Public Offering. The Company has selected December 31 as its fiscal year end.
The registration statement for the Company's Initial Public Offering was declared effective on May 18, 2026. On May 20, 2026, the Company consummated the Initial Public Offering of 7,500,000 Class A Ordinary Shares (the "Public Shares") at $10.00 per Public Share, which is discussed in Note 3, (the "Initial Public Offering"), generating gross proceeds of $75,000,000.
Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the sale of 300,000 private placement shares (the "Private Placement Shares") at a price of $10.00 per Private Placement Share, or $3,000,000 in the aggregate, in a private placement to Amanat Sponsor Holdings LLC (the "Sponsor").
Transaction costs amounted to $3,490,447, consisting of $750,000 of cash underwriting fees, $2,250,000 of deferred underwriting fees, and $490,447 of other offering costs.
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 Shares, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be applied generally toward consummating a Business Combination. The rules of Nasdaq require that the Company must complete one or more Business Combinations having an aggregate fair market value of at least 80% of the value of the assets held in the Trust Account (as described below) (excluding the deferred underwriting commissions and taxes payable on the interest earned on the Trust Account) at the time of the agreement to enter into the initial Business Combination. The Company anticipates structuring the initial Business Combination so that the post-transaction company in which the public shareholders own shares will own or acquire 100% of the equity interests or assets of the target business or businesses. The Company may, however, structure the initial Business Combination such that the post-transaction company owns or acquires less than 100% of such interests or assets of the target business in order to meet certain objectives of the target management team or shareholders or for other reasons, but the Company will only complete such Business Combination if the post-transaction 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 asan investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "Investment Company Act"). There is no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully effect a Business Combination. Upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering on May 20, 2026, an amount of $75,000,000 ($10.00 per Public Share) from the net proceeds of the sale of the Public Shares, and a portion of the proceeds of the sale of the Private Placement Shares, are held in a trust account ("Trust Account") and held in cash or invested in U.S. government treasury obligations with a maturity of 185 days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act, which invest only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations, as determined by the Company, until the earliest 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.

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND PLAN OF BUSINESS OPERATIONS (cont.)
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 the Business Combination, either (i) in connection with a general meeting called to approve the Business Combination or (ii) without a shareholder vote by means of a tender offer. 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 Public Shares, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, calculated as of two business days prior to the consummation of the Business Combination (initially $10.00 per Public Share), including interest (less taxes paid or payable and up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then issued and outstanding Public Shares, subject to certain limitations. The per-share amount to be distributed to the Public Shareholders who properly redeem their shares will not be reduced by the deferred underwriting commissions the Company will pay to the underwriter (as discussed in Note 6). The Public Shares were recorded at redemption value and classified as temporary equity upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering, in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 480, "Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity."
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company seeks shareholder approval of the 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 an aggregate of 20% of the Public Shares without the Company's prior written consent.
The Sponsor, officers, directors and advisors have entered into a letter agreement with the Company, pursuant to which they have agreed to (i) waive their redemption rights with respect to the Founder Shares (as described in Note 5), Private Placement Shares and any Public Shares they may acquire during or after this offering in connection with the completion of the initial Business Combination or an earlier redemption in connection with the commencement of the procedures to consummate the initial Business Combination if the Company determines that it is desirable to facilitate the completion of the initial Business Combination; (ii) waive their redemption rights with respect to the Founder Shares, Private Placement Shares and any Public Shares they may acquire during or after this offering in connection with a shareholder vote to approve an amendment to the articles (A) to modify the substance or timing of the obligation to allow redemption in connection with the initial Business Combination or to redeem 100% of the Public Shares if the Company has not consummated an initial Business Combination within the Completion Window or (B) with respect to any other material provisions relating to shareholders' rights or pre-initial Business Combination activity; (iii) waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to the Founder Shares and Private Placement Shares if the Company fails to complete the initial Business Combination within the Completion Window, although they will be entitled to liquidating distributions from assets outside the Trust Account with respect to any Public Shares they hold if the Company fails to complete the initial Business Combination within the prescribed time frame and to liquidating distributions from assets outside the Trust Account; and (iv) vote any Founder Shares held by them, any Private Placement Shares held by them and any Public Shares purchased during or after this offering (including in open market and privately-negotiated transactions) in favor of the initial Business Combination. If the Company submits the initial Business Combination to the public shareholders for a vote, the Company will complete the initial Business Combination only if it is approved by an ordinary resolution under Cayman Islands law and the Company's articles, being a resolution passed by the affirmative vote of at least a simple majority of the holders of the shares present in person or by proxy and entitled to vote thereon at a general meeting of the Company.

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND PLAN OF BUSINESS OPERATIONS (cont.)
The Company will have until (i) the period ending on the date that is 24 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering, or such earlier liquidation as the Company's board of directors may approve, in which the Company must complete an initial Business Combination or (ii) such other time period in which the Company must complete an initial Business Combination pursuant to an amendment to the Company's Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association. However, if the Company has not completed a Business Combination within the Completion Window, the Company will as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem 100% of the Public Shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned on the funds held in the trust account (less taxes paid or payable and up to $100,000 of interest to pay liquidation expenses), divided by the number of then issued and outstanding Public Shares, which redemption will constitute full and complete payment for the Public Shares and completely extinguish the rights of the Public Shareholders as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidation or other distributions, if any), subject to the Company's obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and subject to the other requirements of applicable law.
The Sponsor has agreed to waive its rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to the Founder Shares it will receive if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Completion Window. 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 Completion Window. 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 Completion Window, 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 Public Share ($10.00).

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND PLAN OF BUSINESS OPERATIONS (cont.)
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 the lesser of (1) $10.00 per Public Share (2) the actual amount per Public Share held in the Trust Account as of the date of the liquidation of the Trust Account, if less than $10.00 per Public Share, due to reductions in the value of trust assets, less taxes payable and up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses, provided that this liability will not apply to any claims by a third party who executed a waiver of any and all rights to seek access to the Trust Account and 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.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company's liquidity needs up to May 20, 2026 had been satisfied through the loan under an unsecured promissory note from the Sponsor of up to $300,000. As of May 20, 2026, the Company had cash of $2,224,975 and had working capital of $1,619,684.
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"). If the Company completes a Business Combination, the Company would repay the Working Capital Loans out of the proceeds of the Trust Account released to the Company. Otherwise, the Working Capital Loans would be repaid only out of funds held outside the Trust Account. In the event that a Business Combination does not close, the Company may use a portion of proceeds held outside the Trust Account to repay the Working Capital Loans, but no proceeds held in the Trust Account would be used to repay the Working Capital Loans. Except for the foregoing, the terms of such Working Capital Loans, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such loans. The Working Capital Loans would either be repaid upon consummation of a Business Combination, without interest, or, at the lender's discretion, up to $1,500,000 of such Working Capital Loans may be convertible into private placement shares of the post-Business Combination entity at a price of $10.00 per share. The shares would be identical to the Private Placement Shares. As of May 20, 2026, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under the Working Capital Loans.

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND PLAN OF BUSINESS OPERATIONS (cont.)
In connection with the Company's assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 205-40, "Presentation of Financial Statements - Going Concern," the Company does not believe it will need to raise additional funds in order to meet the expenditures required for operating its business. However, if the 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, the Company may have insufficient funds available to operate its business prior to the initial Business Combination. Management has determined that the Company has sufficient funds to finance the working capital needs of the Company within one year from the date of issuance of the financial statement.
NOTE 2 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying financial statement has been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC").
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 auditor 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 statement 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.

NOTE 2 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.)
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the financial statement 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 statement.
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 statement, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. The Company had cash of $2,224,975 and did not have any cash equivalents as of May 20, 2026.
Cash Held in Trust Account
As of May 20, 2026, the assets held in the Trust Account, amounting to $75,000,000, were held in cash.
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. Any loss incurred or a lack of access to such funds could have a significant adverse impact on the Company's financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.
Offering Costs Associated with the Initial Public Offering
The Company complies with the requirements of the FASB ASC Topic 340-10-S99 and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin ("SAB") Topic 5A, "Expenses of Offering." Offering costs consist principally of professional and registration fees that are related to the Initial Public Offering. FASB ASC Topic 470-20, "Debt with Conversion and Other Options," addresses the allocation of proceeds from the issuance of convertible debt into its equity and debt components. Offering costs allocated to the Public Shares were charged to temporary equity and offering costs allocated to Private Placement Shares were charged to shareholders' deficit.
Income Taxes
FASB ASC Topic 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. The Company's management determined that the Cayman Islands is the Company's major tax jurisdiction. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. As of May 20, 2026, there were no unrecognized tax benefits and no amounts accrued for interest and penalties. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviation from its position.

AMANAT ACQUISITION CORP
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENT
MAY 20, 2026
NOTE 2 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.)
The Company is considered to be an exempted Cayman Islands company with no connection to any other taxable jurisdiction 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 as of May 20, 2026.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The fair value of the Company's assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under FASB ASC Topic 820, "Fair Value Measurement," approximates the carrying amounts represented in the accompanying balance sheet, primarily due to their short-term nature.
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 FASB ASC Topic 815, "Derivatives and Hedging". For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value on the grant date and is then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the 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 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. The underwriter's over-allotment option is deemed to be a freestanding financial instrument indexed on the contingently redeemable shares and are accounted for as a liability pursuant to FASB ASC Topic 480 since the underwriter's over-allotment option was not exercised at the time of the Initial Public Offering.
Class A Ordinary Shares Subject to Possible Redemption
The Public Shares 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 shareholder vote or tender offer in connection with the Company's initial Business Combination. In accordance with FASB ASC Topic 480-10-S99, the Company classifies Public Shares subject to possible redemption outside of permanent equity as the redemption provisions are not solely within the control of the Company.
F-10
AMANAT ACQUISITION CORP
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENT
MAY 20, 2026
NOTE 2 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.)
The Company recognizes changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and will adjust the carrying value of redeemable 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 accretion from initial book value to redemption value. The change in the carrying value of redeemable shares will result in charges against additional paid-in capital (to the extent available) and accumulated deficit. Accordingly, as of May 20, 2026, 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 balance sheet. As of May 20, 2026, the Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption reflected in the balance sheet are reconciled in the following table:
| Gross proceeds | $ | 75,000,000 | ||
| Less: | ||||
| Proceeds allocated to over-allotment option liability | (58,600 | ) | ||
| Public Shares issuance costs | (3,468,871 | ) | ||

| Remeasurement of carrying value to redemption value | 3,527,471 | |||
| Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption, May 20, 2026 | $ | 75,000,000 |
Share-based Compensation
The Company records share-based compensation in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718, "Compensation-Stock Compensation" ("ASC 718"), guidance to account for its share-based compensation. It applies a fair value-based method of accounting for an employee share option or similar equity instrument. The Company recognizes all forms of share-based payments at their fair value on the grant date, which are based on the estimated number of awards that are ultimately expected to vest. Share-based payments are valued by multiplying the marketable value per Founder Share by the probability of successful closing of an initial Business Combination. Grants of share-based payment awards issued to non-employees for services rendered have been recorded at the fair value of the share-based payment, which is the more readily determinable value. The grants are amortized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service periods, which is generally the vesting period. If an award is granted, but vesting does not occur, any previously recognized compensation cost is reversed in the period related to the termination of service.
Recent Accounting Standards
Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company's financial statement.
NOTE 3 - INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING
Pursuant to the Initial Public Offering on May 20, 2026, the Company sold 7,500,000 Public Shares at a purchase price of $10.00 per Public Share, generating gross proceeds of $75,000,000.

NOTE 4 - PRIVATE PLACEMENT
Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Sponsor purchased an aggregate of 300,000 Private Placement Shares at a price of $10.00 per Private Placement Share, for an aggregate purchase price of $3,000,000, in a private placement. A portion of the proceeds from the Private Placement Shares was added to the proceeds from the Initial Public Offering held in the Trust Account.
NOTE 5 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Founder Shares
On February 12, 2026, Sponsor paid $25,000 to cover certain offering costs of the Company in consideration for 2,156,250 Class B ordinary shares (the "Founder Shares"). The Founder Shares include an aggregate of up to 281,250 shares that remain subject to forfeiture depending on the extent to which the underwriter's over-allotment option is exercised, so that the number of Founder Shares would equal, on an as-converted basis, approximately 20% of the Company's issued and outstanding ordinary shares after the Initial Public Offering (assuming the Sponsor did not purchase any Public Shares in the Initial Public Offering and excluding the Private Placement Shares).
On May 18, 2026, the Sponsor transferred an aggregate of 300,000 Founder Shares to the Company's officers and three independent directors for their services, consisting of (i) 25,000 Founder Shares to the Director and Chairman of the Board of Directors, (ii) 150,000 Founder Shares to the Chief Executive Officer, (iii) 50,000 Founder Shares to the Chief Financial Officer, (iv) 25,000 Founder Shares to each independent director. These issuances were made in exchange for an aggregate purchase price of $3,300, the same per share price paid by the Sponsor for the Founder Shares, and services to be provided to the Company through the Company's initial Business Combination. If the holder of such Founder Shares remains an officer or independent director immediately prior to the consummation of a Business Combination, any unvested share interests owned by such holder will vest in full upon the consummation of the Business Combination. The transfer of the Founder Shares to the holders of such interests is in the scope of ASC 718. Under ASC 718, share-based compensation associated with equity classified awards is measured at fair value upon the assignment date. The total fair value of the 300,000 Founder Shares was $900,000 or $3.00 per share. The Company established the initial fair value of the Founder Shares using a calculation prepared by a third-party valuation team which takes into consideration the following market assumptions; (i) implied share price of $10.00 and (ii) probability of de-SPAC and market adjustment of 30.0%. Share-based compensation shall be subject to straight-line monthly vesting over the course of 24 months from the date when the registration statement of the Initial Public Offering became effective. As of May 20, 2026, the Company recognized stock-based compensation expense of $37,350 upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering and will continue to recognize such expense over the course of 24 months. The share-based compensation expense recorded is net of the amount initially received for the Founder Shares.

Administrative Support Agreement and Executive Compensation
Commencing on May 18, 2026, the Company entered into an agreement to pay the Sponsor, a total of $20,000 per month for officer compensation and administrative support services through the earlier of the Company's consummation of a Business Combination and its liquidation. As of May 20, 2026, the Company had incurred $2,000 of administrative services fees which were included in accrued expenses in the accompanying balance sheet.
In connection with the closing of the Company's Initial Public Offering, the Company's Chief Financial Officer ("CFO") was entitled to receive compensation from the Sponsor consisting of a one-time, lump-sum payment of $35,714 for services rendered in connection with the Initial Public Offering, which amount was included in accrued offering costs in the accompanying balance sheet. Additionally, the CFO will receive a monthly fee of $8,928 from the Sponsor for continued service until the completion of the Business Combination, which is included in the $20,000 administrative services fee described above. If a Business Combination is completed within 24 months from the Initial Public Offering, the Sponsor will pay an additional amount such that the aggregate compensation the CFO receives through closing of the Business Combination shall be no less than $250,000.
Promissory Note - Related Party
On February 12, 2026, the Sponsor entered into an agreement to loan the Company an aggregate of up to $300,000 to be used for a portion of the expenses of the Initial Public Offering. The loan was non-interest bearing, unsecured and due at the earlier of the closing of the Initial Public Offering or the date on which the Company determines not to conduct an Initial Public Offering. The Company had borrowed $134,056 under the promissory note which is still outstanding as of May 20, 2026 and is due on demand. Borrowings under the promissory note are no longer available.
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. If the Company completes a Business Combination, the Company would repay the Working Capital Loans out of the proceeds of the Trust Account released to the Company. Otherwise, the Working Capital Loans would be repaid only out of funds held outside the Trust Account. In the event that a Business Combination does not close, the Company may use a portion of proceeds held outside the Trust Account to repay the Working Capital Loans, but no proceeds held in the Trust Account would be used to repay the Working Capital Loans. Except for the foregoing, the terms of such Working Capital Loans, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such loans. The Working Capital Loans would either be repaid upon consummation of a Business Combination, without interest, or, at the lender's discretion, up to $1,500,000 of such Working Capital Loans may be convertible into private placement shares of the post-Business Combination entity at a price of $10.00 per share. The shares would be identical to the Private Placement Shares. As of May 20, 2026, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under the Working Capital Loans.

NOTE 6 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Registration Rights
The holders of the Founder Shares, Private Placement Shares and any shares that may be issued upon conversion of Working Capital Loans will be entitled to registration rights pursuant to a registration and shareholder rights agreement signed on the effective date of the Initial Public Offering. The holders of these securities will be entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short form demands, that the Company register such securities. In addition, the holders have certain piggyback registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to the completion of a Business Combination. However, the registration and shareholder 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 lockup period. The registration rights agreement does not contain liquidating damages or other cash settlement provisions resulting from delays in registering the Company's securities. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.
Underwriting Agreement
The underwriter has a 45-day option from the date of the Initial Public Offering to purchase up to 1,125,000 additional Public Shares to cover over-allotments at the Initial Public Offering price, less the underwriting discounts and commissions. As of May 20, 2026, the full over-allotment option remains open.
The underwriter was entitled to a cash underwriting discount of $0.10 per Public Share, or $750,000 in the aggregate, which was paid at the closing of the Initial Public Offering. In addition, the underwriter was entitled to a deferred fee of $0.30 per Public Share, or $2,250,000 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.

Class B Ordinary Shares - The Company is authorized to issue 20,000,000 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 May 20, 2026, there were 2,156,250 Class B ordinary shares issued and outstanding, of which an aggregate of up to 281,250 shares remain subject to forfeiture depending on the extent to which the underwriter's over-allotment option is exercised, so that the number of Class B ordinary shares would equal 20% of the Company's issued and outstanding ordinary shares after the Initial Public Offering (assuming the Sponsor did not purchase any Public Shares in the Initial Public Offering and excluding the Private Placement Shares).
Holders of Class A ordinary shares and Class B ordinary shares will vote together as a single class on all other matters submitted to a vote of shareholders, except as required by law.
The Class B ordinary shares will automatically convert into Class A ordinary shares at the time of a Business Combination or earlier at the option of the holders thereof at a ratio such that the number of Class A ordinary shares issuable upon conversion of all Founder Shares will equal, in the aggregate, on an as-converted basis, 20% of the sum of (i) the total number of ordinary shares issued and outstanding upon completion of the Initial Public Offering, plus (ii) the total number of Class A ordinary shares issued or deemed issued or issuable upon conversion or exercise of any equity-linked securities or rights issued or deemed issued, by the Company in connection with or in relation to the consummation of a Business Combination (including the forward purchase shares, but not the forward purchase agreements), excluding any forward purchases securities and Class A ordinary shares or equity-linked securities exercisable for or convertible into Class A ordinary shares issued, deemed issued, or to be issued, to any seller in a Business Combination and any Private Placement Shares issued to the Sponsor, its affiliates or any member of the Company's management team upon conversion of Working Capital Loans. In no event will the Class B ordinary shares convert into Class A ordinary shares at a rate of less than one to one.
Note 8 - FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received for sale of an asset or paid for transfer of a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. GAAP establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). These tiers 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. In some circumstances, the inputs used to measure fair value might be categorized within different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In those instances, the fair value measurement is categorized in its entirety in the fair value hierarchy based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement. |

Note 8 - FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS (cont.)
The over-allotment option was accounted for as a liability in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 815-40 and was presented within liabilities on the balance sheet. The over-allotment option liability is measured at fair value at inception and on a recurring basis, with changes in fair value presented within changes in fair value of over-allotment option liability in the statement of operations.
The fair value of the over-allotment option liability is $58,600. The Company used a Black-Scholes model to value the over-allotment option. The over-allotment option liability was 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 ordinary shares based on historical volatility that matches the expected remaining life of the option. 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 option. The expected life of the option is assumed to be equivalent to their remaining contractual term.
The key inputs into the Black-Scholes model were as follows at initial measurement of the over-allotment option:
|
May 20, 2026 |
||||
| Volatility | 1.67 | % | ||
| Expected term (years) | 0.12 | |||
| Expected volatility | 3.65 | % | ||
| Exercise price | $ | 10.00 | ||
| Fair value of over-allotment unit | $ | 0.05 | ||
Note 9 - Segment Information
FASB ASC Topic 280, "Segment Reporting," establishes standards for companies to report in their financial statement information about operating segments, products, services, geographic areas, and major customers. Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise that engage in business activities from which it may recognize revenues and incur expenses, and for which separate financial information is available that is regularly evaluated by the Company's chief operating decision maker ("CODM"), or group, in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance.
The Company's CODM has been identified as the Chief Executive Officer, who reviews the assets, operating results, and financial metrics for the Company as a whole to make decisions about allocating resources and assessing financial performance. Accordingly, management has determined that the Company only has one reportable segment.
