| 1. | INTERIM FINANCIAL INFORMATION |
The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements of Terrapin 3 Acquisition Corporation (the “Company”) should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Prospectus filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on July 17, 2014. The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, since they are interim statements, the accompanying financial statements do not include all the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statement presentation. In the opinion of management, the interim financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal, recurring adjustments) that are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the interim periods presented. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year.
| 2. | DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS |
The Company is a newly organized blank check company incorporated in Delaware on December 27, 2013. The Company was formed for the purpose of acquiring, through a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization, exchangeable share transaction or other similar business transaction, one or more operating businesses or assets that the Company has not yet identified (“Business Combination”). The Company has neither engaged in any operations nor generated any operating revenue to date. The Company’s management has broad discretion with respect to the Business Combination. However, there is no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully complete a Business Combination The Company has selected December 31 as its fiscal year end.
The initial stockholders of the Company, Apple Orange LLC, Noyac Path LLC, Periscope LLC, (together the “Terrapin sponsor”), along with Terrapin Partners Employee Partnership 3 LLC, and MIHI LLC (the “Macquarie sponsor”; together with the Terrapin sponsor, the “Sponsors”) and Terrapin Partners Green Employee Partnership, LLC have agreed, in the event the Company is required to seek stockholder approval of its Business Combination, to vote their Founders Shares, as defined below, and any public shares held, in favor of approving the Business Combination.
Financing
The registration statement for the Company’s initial public offering (the “Public Offering” as described in Note 4) was declared effective by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on July 17, 2014. The Sponsors purchased, simultaneously with the closing of the Public Offering, $6,000,000 of warrants in a private placement (Note 5).
Upon the closing of the Public Offering and the private placement, $212,750,000 was placed in a trust account with the Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company (the “Trust Account”) acting as trustee.
Trust Account
The Trust Account can be invested only in U.S. government treasury bills with a maturity of one hundred and eighty (180) days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 which invest only in direct U.S. government obligations.
The Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides that, other than the withdrawal of interest to pay taxes or for working capital, if any, none of the funds held in trust will be released until the earlier of: (i) the completion of the Business Combination; or (ii) the redemption of 100% of the shares of common stock included in the units sold in the Public Offering if the Company is unable to complete the Business Combination within 24 months from the closing of the Public Offering.
| 7 |
Business Combination
The Company’s management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the Public Offering, although substantially all of the net proceeds of the Public Offering are intended to be generally applied toward consummating the Business Combination with (or acquisition of) a Target Business. As used herein, “Target Business” means one or more target businesses that together have a fair market value equal to at least 80% of the balance in the trust account (less any deferred underwriting commissions and taxes payable on interest earned) at the time the Company signs a definitive agreement in connection with the Business Combination. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully effect the Business Combination.
The Company, after signing a definitive agreement for the Business Combination, will either (i) seek stockholder approval of the Business Combination at a meeting called for such purpose in connection with which stockholders may seek to redeem their shares, regardless of whether they vote for or against the Business Combination, for cash equal to their pro rata share of the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account as of two business days prior to the consummation of the Business Combination, including interest but less taxes payable and funds released for working capital, or (ii) provide stockholders with the opportunity to sell their shares to the Company by means of a tender offer (and thereby avoid the need for a stockholder vote) for an amount in cash equal to their pro rata share of the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account as of two business days prior to commencement of the tender offer, including interest but less taxes payable and funds released for working capital. The decision as to whether the Company will seek stockholder approval of the Business Combination or will allow stockholders to sell their shares in a tender offer will be made by the Company, solely in its discretion, and will be based on a variety of factors such as the timing of the transaction and whether the terms of the transaction would otherwise require the Company to seek stockholder approval, unless a vote is required by NASDAQ rules. If the Company seeks stockholder approval, it will complete its Business Combination only if a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock voted are voted in favor of the Business Combination. However, in no event will the Company redeem or repurchase its public shares in an amount that would cause its net tangible assets to be less than $5,000,001. In such case, the Company would not proceed with the redemption or repurchase of its public shares and the related Business Combination, and instead may search for an alternate Business Combination.
Liquidation
If the Company holds a stockholder vote or there is a tender offer for shares in connection with the Business Combination, public stockholders will have the opportunity to have public shares redeemed or repurchased for an amount in cash equal to its pro rata share of the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account as of two business days prior to the consummation of the Business Combination or commencement of the tender offer, respectively, including interest but less taxes payable and funds released for working capital. As a result, such shares have been classified as common stock subject to possible redemption, in accordance with ASC 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.”
The Company will only have 24 months from the closing date of the Public Offering to complete its Business Combination. If the Company does not complete the Business Combination within this period of time, it shall (i) cease all operations except for the purposes of winding up; (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible, but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem the public shares of common stock for a per share pro rata portion of the Trust Account, including interest, but less taxes payable and funds released for working capital (less up to $50,000 of such net interest to pay dissolution expenses) and (iii) as promptly as possible following such redemption, dissolve and liquidate the balance of the Company’s net assets to its remaining stockholders, as part of its plan of dissolution and liquidation. The Sponsors and other initial stockholders have entered into letter agreements with the Company, pursuant to which they have waived their rights to participate in any redemption with respect to their initial shares; however, if the Sponsors or any of the Company’s officers, directors or affiliates acquire shares of common stock in or after the Public Offering, they will be entitled to a pro rata share of the Trust Account upon the Company’s redemption or liquidation in the event the Company does not complete the Business Combination within the required time period.
| 8 |
In the event of such distribution, it is possible that the per share value of the residual assets remaining available for distribution (including Trust Account assets) will be less than the initial public offering price per unit in the Public Offering.
Emerging Growth Company
Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of the Company’s financial statements with another public company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of the using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.
3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of presentation
The accompanying financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars in conformity with GAAP and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC.
Net loss per common share
Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss per share by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding, plus, to the extent dilutive, the incremental number of shares of common stock to settle warrants, as calculated using the treasury stock method. At March 31, 2015, the Company had outstanding warrants to purchase 16,637,500 shares of common stock. At March 31, 2014 there were 5,250,000 outstanding warrants that were subsequently cancelled on May 15, 2014 (Note 5, Founder Shares). For all periods presented, the weighted average of these shares was excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share of common stock because their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive. As a result, dilutive loss per share of common stock is equal to basic loss per share of common stock.
Concentration of credit risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist of cash accounts in a financial institution which, at times may exceed the Federal depository insurance coverage of $250,000. The Company has not experienced losses on these accounts and management believes the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such accounts.
Fair value of financial instruments
The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under FASB ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the accompanying balance sheets, primarily due to their short-term nature.
Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
| 9 |
Deferred offering costs
Deferred offering costs consist of legal and accounting fees incurred through the balance sheet date that are directly related to the Public Offering. Upon consummation of the Public Offering on July 22, 2014, offering costs of approximately $12,214,000 (including approximately $11,700,000 in underwriter fees) were incurred and have been charged to stockholders' equity as of March 31, 2015.
Redeemable Common Stock
As discussed in Note 4, all of the 21,275,000 shares of Class A common stock sold as part of the units in the Public Offering contain a redemption feature which allows for the redemption of shares of Class A common stock under the Company’s liquidation, tender offer, or stockholder approval provisions. In accordance with ASC 480, redemption provisions not solely within the control of the Company require the security to be classified outside of permanent equity. Ordinary liquidation events, which involve the redemption and liquidation of all of the entity’s equity instruments, are excluded from the provisions of ASC 480. Although the Company did not specify a maximum redemption threshold, its charter provides that in no event will it redeem its public shares in an amount that would cause its net tangible assets (stockholders’ equity) to be less than $5,000,001. The Company recognizes changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and will adjust the carrying value of the security to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Increases or decreases in the carrying amount of redeemable common stock shall be affected by changes in retained earnings, or in the absence of retained earnings, by charges against paid-in capital in accordance with FASB ASC 480-10-S99. Accordingly, at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, 20,107,638 and 20,119,067 shares, respectively were classified outside of permanent equity at their redemption value.
Income taxes
The Company complies with the accounting and reporting requirements of FASB ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes,” which requires an asset and liability approach to financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed for differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities that will result in future taxable or deductible amounts, based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.
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 recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. There were no unrecognized tax benefits as of March 31, 2015. No amounts were accrued for the payment of interest and penalties at March 31, 2015. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviation from its position. The Company is subject to income tax examinations by major taxing authorities since inception.
The Company may be subject to potential examination by U.S. federal, U.S. states or foreign jurisdiction authorities in the areas of income taxes. These potential examinations may include questioning the timing and amount of deductions, the nexus of income among various tax jurisdictions and compliance with U.S. federal, U.S. state and foreign 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.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-10, which eliminated certain financial reporting requirements of companies previously identified as “Development Stage Entities” (Topic 915). The amendments in this ASU simplify accounting guidance by removing all incremental financial reporting requirements for development stage entities. The amendments also reduce data maintenance and, for those entities subject to audit, audit costs by eliminating the requirement for development stage entities to present inception-to-date information in the statements of income, cash flows, and shareholder equity. Early application of each of the amendments is permitted for any annual reporting period or interim period for which the entity's financial statements have not yet been issued (public business entities) or made available for issuance (other entities). Upon adoption, entities will no longer present or disclose any information required by Topic 915. For public business entities, those amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2014, and interim periods therein. The Company has decided to adopt this standard beginning in the reporting period ended December 31, 2014.
| 10 |
4. PUBLIC OFFERING
On July 22, 2014, the Company sold 21,275,000 units at a price of $10.00 per unit (the “Public Units’) in the Public Offering, including the sale of units upon full exercise of the underwriters’ overallotment option. Each Unit consists of one share of the Company’s Class A common stock, $0.0001 par value per share , and one redeemable Class A common stock purchase warrant (the “Public Warrants”).
Under the terms of the warrant agreement, the Company has agreed to use its best efforts to file a new registration statement under the Securities Act following the completion of the Business Combination. Each Public Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one-half of one share of Class A common stock at an exercise price of $5.75 per half share. No fractional shares will be issued upon exercise of the warrants. If, upon exercise of the warrants, a holder would be entitled to receive a fractional interest in a share, the Company will, upon exercise, round down to the nearest whole number the number of shares of common stock to be issued to the warrant holder. Each Public Warrant will become exercisable on the later of 30 days after the completion of the Company’s Business Combination or 12 months from the closing of the Public Offering and will expire five years after the completion of the Company’s Business Combination or earlier upon redemption or liquidation. However, if the Company does not complete its Business Combination on or prior to the 24-month period allotted to complete the Business Combination, the Public Warrants will expire at the end of such period. If the Company is unable to deliver registered shares of common stock to the holder upon exercise of Public Warrants issued in connection with the 21,275,000 Public Units during the exercise period, there will be no net cash settlement of these Public Warrants and the Pubic Warrants will expire worthless, unless they may be exercised on a cashless basis in the circumstances described in the warrant agreement. 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, only in the event that the last sale price of the Company’s shares of common stock equals or exceeds $24.00 per share for any 20 trading days within the 30-trading day period ending on the third trading day before the Company sends the notice of redemption to the warrant holders.
The Company paid an upfront underwriting discount of $4,250,000 (approximately 2.0%) of the per unit offering price to the underwriters at the closing of the Public Offering, with an additional fee (the “Deferred Discount”) of $7,451,250 (approximately 3.5%) of the gross offering proceeds payable upon the Company’s completion of the Business Combination. The Deferred Discount will become payable to the underwriters from the amounts held in the Trust Account solely in the event the Company completes its Business Combination. The underwriters are not entitled to any interest accrued on the Deferred Discount.
5. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Founder Shares
On December 31, 2013, the Company issued an aggregate of 5,250,000 units, each unit consisting of 1 share of common stock and 1 warrant to purchase one half of one share of common stock, to the Terrapin sponsor and Terrapin Partners Employee Partnership 3 LLC (the “Founder Units”) for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000. On May 15, 2014, the Company cancelled the warrants issued as part of these Founder Units resulting in the net issuance of 5,250,000 shares (“Founder Shares”). On May 19, 2014, the Company implemented an approximate 1.0131 -for- 1 stock split, re-characterized its Founder Shares as Class F common shares, and authorized the issuance of Class A common stock and undesignated shares. Further, on May 19, 2014, Apple Orange LLC sold 1,211,563 Founder Shares to the Macquarie Sponsor and transferred 56,061 Founder Shares to Terrapin Partners Green Employee Partnership, LLC, an affiliate of Apple Orange LLC. The Founder Shares are identical to the Class A common stock included in the Public Units sold in the Public Offering except that the Founder Shares are subject to certain transfer restrictions and contingent adjustments, as described in more detail below (Note 9, Class F Common Stock).
| 11 |
The initial stockholders have agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of their Founder Shares until one year after the Business Combination (the “lock up”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the last sale price of the 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, or if the Company consummates a transaction after the initial Business Combination which results in the stockholders having the right to exchange their shares for cash or property, the Founder Shares will be released from the lock-up.
Rights - The Founder Shares are identical to the public shares except that (i) Founder Shares are subject to certain transfer restrictions, as described above, and (ii) the initial stockholders have agreed to waive redemption rights in connection with the Business Combination with respect to the Founders Shares. However, the initial stockholders will be entitled to redemption rights with respect to any shares they hold by way of public market purchase if the Company fails to consummate the Business Combination within 24 months from the closing of the Public Offering.
Voting – If the Company seeks stockholder approval of the Business Combination, the initial stockholders have agreed to vote their Founder Shares and any public shares purchased during or after the Public Offering in favor of the Business Combination.
Redemption – Although the initial stockholders have waived their redemption rights with respect to the Founder Shares if the Company fails to complete the Business Combination within the prescribed time frame, they will be entitled to redemption rights with respect to any public shares they may own.
Contingent Forward Purchase
The Macquarie sponsor has committed to purchase, and the Company has committed to sell, 4,000,000 units on the same terms as the sale of units in the Public Offering (except for certain transfer restrictions) at $10.00 per unit, in a private placement for gross proceeds of approximately $40,000,000 to occur concurrently with the consummation of the Business Combination. The funds will be used as part of consideration to the sellers in the Business Combination; any excess funds from this private placement will be used for working capital in the post-transaction company. This commitment is independent of the percentage of stockholders selecting to redeem their shares and provides the Company with a minimum funding level for the Business Combination. In exchange for this commitment, the Company has agreed to issue to the Macquarie Sponsor 1,000,000 Class F Founder Shares at the closing of the Business Combination and such private placement.
Private Placement Warrants
The Sponsors have purchased from the Company an aggregate of 12,000,000 warrants at a price of $0.50 per warrant (a purchase price of $6,000,000) in a private placement that occurred simultaneously with the completion of the Public Offering (the “Private Placement Warrants”). Each Private Placement Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one-half of one share of Class A common stock at $5.75 per half share. The purchase price of the Private Placement Warrants was added to the proceeds from the Public Offering held in the Trust Account pending completion of the Business Combination.
The Private Placement Warrants (including the Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the Private Placement Warrants) will not be transferable, assignable or salable until 30 days after the completion of the Business Combination and they will be non-redeemable so long as they are held by the Sponsors or their permitted transferees. If the Private Placement Warrants are held by someone other than the Sponsors or their permitted transferees, the Private Placement Warrants will be redeemable by the Company and exercisable by such holders on the same basis as the Public Warrants included in the units sold in the Public Offering. Otherwise, the Private Placement Warrants have terms and provisions that are identical to those of the Public Warrants sold as part of the units in the Public Offering and have no net cash settlement provisions.
| 12 |
If the Company does not complete the Business Combination, then the Private Placement Warrants proceeds will be part of the liquidation distribution to the public stockholders and the Private Placement Warrants will expire worthless.
Registration Rights
The holders of the Founder Shares and Private Placement Warrants hold registration rights to require the Company to register the sale of any of the securities held by them pursuant to a registration rights agreement. The holders of Units (and underlying securities) and Founder Shares purchased in the Contingent Forward Purchase hold similar registration rights. The holders of these securities will be entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short form registration demands, that the Company register such securities for sale under the Securities Act. In addition, these holders will have “piggy-back” registration rights to include their securities in other registration statements filed by the Company. 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. The Company will bear the costs and expenses of filing any such registration statements.
Related Party Note
Apple Orange LLC, a Terrapin sponsor, had loaned the Company $200,000 by the issuance of an unsecured promissory note (the “Note”) for $200,000 to cover expenses related to the Public Offering. This Note was non-interest bearing and payable on the earlier of September 30, 2014 or out of the proceeds from the Public Offering. The Note was repaid in full on July 22, 2014.
Expense Advance Agreement
On July 16, 2014, the Sponsors entered into an agreement to advance to the Company, as may be requested by the Company, up to $500,000 each, for an aggregate of $1,000,000, in working capital loans in the form of promissory notes to be provided to fund expenses relating to investigating and selecting a target business and other working capital requirements prior to the Business Combination. Such note(s) shall bear no interest and shall be convertible into Public Warrants at a price of $0.50 at the option of the note holder. At March 31, 2015, no balance was due under this agreement.
Administrative Service Agreement
Commencing on July 17, 2014, the Company has agreed to pay $10,000 a month for office space, administrative services and secretarial support to Terrapin Partners LLC, an affiliate of the Terrapin sponsor. Upon the completion of the Business Combination or the liquidation of the Company, the Company will cease paying these monthly fees. As of March 31, 2015, the Company had a balance of $6,855 payable to related parties under this administrative services agreement.
6. COMMITMENTS
The Company is committed to pay the Deferred Discount totaling $7,451,250 (approximately 3.5%) of the gross offering proceeds of the Public Offering, to the underwriters upon the Company’s consummation of the Business Combination. The underwriters are not entitled to any interest accrued on the Deferred Discount, and no Deferred Discount is payable to the underwriters if there is no Business Combination.
7. TRUST ACCOUNT
A total of $212,750,000, which includes $206,750,000 of the net proceeds from the Public Offering and $6,000,000 from the sale of the Private Placement Warrants, has been placed in the Trust Account.
| 13 |
As of March 31, 2015, investment securities in the Company’s Trust Account consist of $212,797,973 in United States Treasury Bills and another $6,286 is held as cash and cash equivalents. The Company classifies its United States Treasury and equivalent securities as held-to-maturity in accordance with FASB ASC 320 “Investments – Debt and Equity Securities”. Held-to-maturity securities are those securities which the Company has the ability and intent to hold until maturity. Held-to-maturity treasury securities are recorded at amortized cost on the accompanying December 31, 2014 and March 31, 2015 balance sheets and adjusted for the amortization or accretion of premiums or discounts. The carrying value, excluding accrued interest income, gross unrealized holding gain and fair value of held to maturity securities at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 are as follows:

8. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT
The Company complies with ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurement,” for its financial assets and liabilities that are re-measured and reported at fair value at each reporting period, and non-financial assets and liabilities that are re-measured and reported at fair value at least annually. The adoption of ASC 820 did not have an impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.
The following table presents information about the Company’s assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques the Company utilized to determine such fair value. In general, fair values determined by Level 1 inputs utilize quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Fair values determined by Level 2 inputs utilize data points that are observable such as quoted prices, interest rates and yield curves. Fair values determined by Level 3 inputs are unobservable data points for the asset or liability, and includes situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability:

9. STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY
On May 19, 2014, the Company implemented an approximate 1.0131-for-1 stock split, re-characterized its Founder Shares as shares of Class F common stock, and authorized the issuance of Class A common stock and undesignated common stock. All share issuances prior to the stock split have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the stock split.
Common Stock
Class A Common Stock — The Company is authorized to issue 90,000,000 shares of Class A common stock with a par value of $0.0001 per share. Holders of the Company’s Class A common stock are entitled to one vote for each Class A common share. At March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, there were 21,275,000 shares of Class A common stock issued and outstanding, which includes 20,107,638 and 20,119,067 shares subject to possible redemption, respectively.
Class F Common Stock — The Company is authorized to issue 10,000,000 shares of Class F common stock with a par value of $0.0001 per share. Holders of the Company’s Class F common stock are entitled to one vote for each Class F common share. Shares of Class F common stock are convertible into shares of Class A common stock at a ratio of one-for-one. In the case that additional shares of Class A common stock, or equity-linked securities, are deemed issued in excess of the amounts offered in the Public Offering and related to the closing of the Business Combination, shares of Class F common stock are subject to future modification to provide for an adjustment to the ratio by which they shall convert into shares of Class A common stock. Such adjustment will result in additional shares of Class A common stock issuable upon the conversion of Class F common stock. The number of shares of Class A common stock issuable upon conversion of all shares of Class F common stock will equal, in the aggregate, 20% of the total number of all shares of Class A common stock sold in the Public Offering plus all common shares or equity-linked securities deemed to be issued in connection with the Business Combination, excluding any shares or equity-linked securities issued, or issuable, to any seller in the Business Combination or pursuant to warrants issued to the Sponsors plus Class F common stock and the Class A common stock (but not the warrants) issued pursuant to the forward purchase contract with the Macquarie sponsor. At March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, there were 5,318,750 shares of Class F common stock issued and outstanding.
Common Stock — The Company is authorized to issue 10,000,000 shares of undesignated common stock with a par value of $0.0001 per share with such designations, voting and other rights and preferences as may be determined from time to time by the Board of Directors. At March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, there were no shares of undesignated common stock issued and outstanding.
Preferred Stock
Preferred Stock — The Company is authorized to issue 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock with such designations, voting and other rights and preferences as may be determined from time to time by the Board of Directors. At March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, there were no shares of preferred stock issued and outstanding.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
References in this report to “we,” “us” or the “Company” refer to Terrapin 3 Acquisition Corporation. References to our “management” or our “management team” refer to our officers and directors, and references to the “sponsor” refer to Apple Orange LLC, Noyac Path LLC, and Periscope LLC (together the “Terrapin sponsors”), and MIHI LLC (the “Macquarie sponsor”; together with the Terrapin sponsors, the “sponsors”). The following discussion and analysis of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto contained elsewhere in this report. Certain information contained in the discussion and analysis set forth below includes forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties.
Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
All statements other than statements of historical fact included in this Form 10-Q including, without limitation, statements in this Item 2 regarding the Company’s financial position, business strategy and the plans and objectives of management for future operations, are forward-looking statements. When used in this Form 10-Q, words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend” and similar expressions, as they relate to us or the Company’s management, identify forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements are based on the beliefs of management, as well as assumptions made by, and information currently available to, the Company’s management. Actual results could differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors detailed in our filings with the SEC. All subsequent written or oral forward-looking statements attributable to us or persons acting on the Company’s behalf are qualified in their entirety by this paragraph.
Overview
We are a blank check company incorporated on December 27, 2013 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 (“Business Combination”). The accompanying financial statements recognize December 31, 2013, the date of initial funding, as the Company’s date of inception. We intend to effectuate our Business Combination using cash from the proceeds of our initial public offering (the “Public Offering”) and a sale of warrants in a private placement that occurred simultaneously with the completion of the Public Offering (the “Private Placement Warrants”), our capital stock, debt or a combination of cash, stock and debt.
Results of Operations
For the quarter ended March 31, 2015 our net loss was $114,291 compared to $39 for the quarter ended March 31, 2014 during which the Company's entire activity was in preparation for the Public Offering which was consummated on July 22, 2014. Our net loss in the current period resulted mainly from ongoing general and administrative costs and from the accrual of franchise taxes, the total of which exceeded our accrued interest income which was our sole income.
As stated above, the Company’s entire activity from December 31, 2013 (inception) through July 22, 2014, was in preparation for the Public Offering. Since the Public Offering, the Company has engaged in a search for a target for the Business Combination. We believe that we have sufficient funds available to complete our efforts to effect a Business Combination with an operating business within the required 24 months from our Public Offering.
| 16 |
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of March 31, 2015, we had cash of approximately $911,753 outside the Trust Account. Until the consummation of the Public Offering, the Company’s only source of liquidity was an initial purchase of shares of our common stock by the sponsors and a series of advances made by the sponsors and additional monies loaned under certain unsecured promissory notes.
On July 22, 2014, we consummated the Public Offering of 21,275,000 units at a price of $10.00 per unit. Simultaneously with the consummation of the Public Offering, we consummated the private sale of an aggregate of 12,000,000 warrants, each exercisable to purchase one-half of one share of our Class A common stock at $5.75 per half share ($11.50 per whole share), to the sponsors at a price of $0.50 per warrant, generating gross proceeds of $12,000,000. We received net proceeds from the Company’s Public Offering and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants of approximately $212,750,000, net of the non-deferred portion of the underwriting commissions of $4,250,000 (none of which were incurred from December 31, 2013 through July 22, 2014) and offering costs and other expenses of approximately $4,762,670 (none of which were incurred from December 31, 2013 through July 22, 2014). For a description of the proceeds generated in the Company’s Public Offering and a discussion of the use of such proceeds, refer to Note 4 of the unaudited financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 and in Part II, Item 2 of this Report.
As of March 31, 2015, $212,814,259 was held in the Trust Account (including $7,451,250 of deferred underwriting discounts and commissions and $6,000,000 from the sale of the Sponsor Warrants) and we had cash outside of trust of $911,753 and approximately $251,000 in accounts payable and accrued expenses, including accrued franchise tax payable. Through March 31, 2015, the Company had not withdrawn any funds from interest earned on the trust proceeds. Other than the deferred underwriting discounts and commissions, no amounts are payable to the underwriters of the Public Offering in the event of a Business Combination.
As described elsewhere in this report, the amounts in the Trust Account may be invested only in U.S. government treasury bills with a maturity of 180 days or less or 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. The current low interest rate environment may make it more difficult for such investments to generate sufficient funds, together with the amounts available outside the Trust Account, to locate, conduct due diligence, structure, negotiate and close a Business Combination. If we are required to seek additional capital in order to finance transaction costs in connection with an intended initial Business Combination, our Sponsor or an affiliate of our Terrapin sponsor and our Macquarie sponsor have committed up to $500,000 each, for an aggregate of $1,000,000, in working capital loans. If we consummate an initial Business Combination, we would repay such loaned amounts. In the event that the initial Business Combination does not close, we may use a portion of the working capital held outside the trust account to repay such loaned amounts but no proceeds from our Trust Account would be used for such repayment, other than the interest income earned thereon. Up to $1,000,000 of such loans may be convertible into warrants of the post Business Combination entity at a price of $0.50 per warrant at the option of the lender. The warrants would be identical to the placement warrants. The terms of any additional loans by our officers and directors, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such loans. Any such loans would be repaid only from funds held outside the Trust Account or from funds released to us upon completion of a Business Combination. If we are unable to complete a Business Combination because we do not have sufficient funds available to us, we will be forced to cease operations and liquidate the Trust Account.
Off-balance sheet financing arrangements
We have no obligations, assets or liabilities which would be considered off-balance sheet arrangements. We do not participate in transactions that create relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, often referred to as variable interest entities, which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements.
| 17 |
We have not entered into any off-balance sheet financing arrangements, established any special purpose entities, guaranteed any debt or commitments of other entities, or entered into any non-financial assets.
Contractual obligations
We do not have any long-term debt, capital lease obligations, operating lease obligations or long-term liabilities other than an agreement to pay an entity affiliated with our Terrapin sponsor a monthly fee of $10,000 for office space, secretarial and administrative services provided to the Company. Upon completion of a Business Combination or the Company’s liquidation, the Company will cease paying these monthly fees. We began incurring these fees on July 17, 2014 and will continue to incur these fees monthly until the earlier of the completion of the Business Combination or the Company’s liquidation.
Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and income and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. The Company has identified the following as its critical accounting policies:
Trust Account
A total of $212,750,000, including approximately $206,750,000 of the net proceeds from the Public Offering, $6,000,000 from the sale of the Sponsor Warrants and $7,451,250 of deferred underwriting discounts and commissions, was placed in the Trust Account with Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company serving as trustee. The trust proceeds are invested in U.S. government treasury bills with a maturity of 180 days or less or 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 of March 31, 2015, the balance in the Trust Account was $212,804,259.
Loss per common share
Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss per share by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding, plus, to the extent dilutive, the incremental number of shares of common stock to settle warrants, as calculated using the treasury stock method.
Income taxes
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed for differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities that will result in future taxable or deductible amounts, based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.
| 18 |
Deferred Offering Costs
Deferred offering costs consist principally of professional and registration fees incurred through the balance sheet date that are related to the Public Offering and that were charged to stockholders’ equity upon the completion of the Public Offering on July 22, 2014.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
All activity through March 31, 2015 relates to our formation, the preparation for our Public Offering and searching for a target for the Business Combination. We did not have any financial instruments that were exposed to market risks at March 31, 2015.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in company reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
As required by Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2015. Based upon their evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15 (e) and 15d-15 (e) under the Exchange Act) were effective.
During the most recently completed fiscal quarter, there has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
| 19 |
None.
Factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those in this report are any of the risks described in our annual report for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2014 filed with the SEC on March 25, 2015. Any of these factors could result in a significant or material adverse effect on our results of operations or financial condition. Additional risk factors not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also impair our business or results of operations. As of the date of this Report, there have been no material changes to the risk factors disclosed in our annual report for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014 filed with the SEC on March 25, 2015, except we may disclose changes to such factors or disclose additional factors from time to time in our future filings with the SEC.
ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS
None.
ITEM 3. DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES
None.
ITEM 4. MINE SAFETY DISCLOSURES
Not applicable.
None.
