Note 1 — Organization and Business Operations
OCA Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) is a blank check company incorporated in Delaware on July 28, 2020. The Company was formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses (“Business Combination”).
As of March 31, 2023, the Company had not commenced any operations. All activity through March 31, 2023 relates to the Company’s formation and the IPO (as defined and described below), and identifying a target company for a Business Combination. The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of a Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company generates non-operating income in the form of interest income from the proceeds derived from the IPO.
The registration statement for the Company’s
IPO was declared effective by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on January 14, 2021 (the “Registration
Statement”). The Company’s sponsor is OCA Acquisition Holdings LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Sponsor”). On
January 20, 2021, the Company consummated an initial public offering of

Liquidity and Going Concern Consideration
As of March 31, 2023, the Company had $
During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company satisfied its liquidity needs primarily through funding by its Sponsor. Until the consummation of a Business Combination, the Company will be using the funds not held in the Trust Account. The Company may need to raise additional capital through loans or additional investments from its Sponsor, stockholders, officers, directors, or third parties. The Company’s officers, directors and Sponsor may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds, from time to time or at any time, in whatever amount they deem reasonable in their sole discretion, to meet the Company’s working capital needs. Accordingly, the Company may not be able to obtain additional financing. If the Company is unable to raise additional capital, it may be required to take additional measures to conserve liquidity, which could include, but not necessarily be limited to, curtailing operations, suspending the pursuit of a potential transaction, and reducing overhead expenses.
In connection with the Company’s assessment
of going concern considerations in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) Topic 2014-15, “Disclosures
of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern,” the Company has until April 20, 2023 (or up to
January 20, 2024, if extended at the request of the Company’s sponsor) to consummate a Business Combination. It is uncertain that
the Company will be able to consummate a Business Combination by this time. If a Business Combination is not consummated by this date
and an extension not requested by the Sponsor, there will be a mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution of the Company. Management
has determined that the liquidity condition and mandatory liquidation, should a Business Combination not occur and an extension is not
requested by the Sponsor, and potential subsequent dissolution raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue
as a going concern. No adjustments have been made to the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities should the Company be required to
liquidate after April 20, 2023 (or up to January 20, 2024, if extended at the request of the Company’s sponsor). On April 17, 2023,
the board of directors of the Company approved an extension of the Termination Date from April 20, 2023 to May 20, 2023 and a draw of

Risks and Uncertainties
Our results of operations and our ability to complete an initial Business Combination may be adversely affected by various factors that could cause economic uncertainty and volatility in the financial markets, many of which are beyond our control. Our business could be impacted by, among other things, downturns in the financial markets or in economic conditions, increases in oil prices, inflation, increases in interest rates, supply chain disruptions, declines in consumer confidence and spending, the ongoing effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, including resurgences and the emergence of new variants, and geopolitical instability, such as the military conflict in Ukraine. We cannot at this time fully predict the likelihood of one or more of the above events, their duration or magnitude or the extent to which they may negatively impact our business and our ability to complete and initial Business Combination.

Any redemption or other repurchase that occurs after December 31, 2022, in connection with a Business Combination, extension vote or otherwise, may be subject to the excise tax. Whether and to what extent the Company would be subject to the excise tax in connection with a Business Combination, extension vote or otherwise would depend on a number of factors, including (i) the fair market value of the redemptions and repurchases in connection with the Business Combination, extension or otherwise, (ii) the structure of a Business Combination, (iii) the nature and amount of any “PIPE” or other equity issuances in connection with a Business Combination (or otherwise issued not in connection with a Business Combination but issued within the same taxable year of a Business Combination) and (iv) the content of regulations and other guidance from the Treasury. In addition, because the excise tax would be payable by the Company and not by the redeeming holder, the mechanics of any required payment of the excise tax have not been determined. The foregoing could cause a reduction in the cash available on hand to complete a Business Combination and in the Company’s ability to complete a Business Combination.

Note 2 — Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for financial information and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP. In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed financial statements reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments necessary for the fair statement of the balances and results for the periods presented. The interim results for the three months ended March 31, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2023 or for any future interim periods.
The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K as of and for the year ended December 31, 2022.
Emerging Growth Company Status
The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, (the “JOBS Act”), and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.

OCA ACQUISITION CORP.
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 2023
Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of the Company’s financial statements with another public company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of 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 condensed financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.
Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. 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. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company did not have any cash equivalents.
Cash and Marketable Securities Held in Trust Account
At March 31, 2023 the investment in the Trust
Account was held in a demand deposit account. At December 31, 2022, the investment in the Trust Account were held in marketable securities
which are reported at fair market value. The Company’s portfolio of marketable securities held in the Trust Account were comprised
of U.S. government securities, within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act, with a maturity of
Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject
the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash accounts in a financial institution, which, at times, may exceed the Federal
Deposit Insurance Corporation coverage limit of $
Warrant Liabilities
The Company evaluated the Warrants in accordance with ASC Topic 815-40, “Derivatives and Hedging — Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity” (“ASC 815-40”), and concluded that a provision in the Warrant Agreement related to certain tender or exchange offers precludes the Warrants from being accounted for as components of equity. As the Warrants meet the definition of a derivative as contemplated in ASC 815-40, the Warrants are recorded as derivative liabilities on the balance sheets and measured at fair value at inception (on the date of the IPO) and at each reporting date in accordance with ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurement”, with changes in fair value recognized in the condensed statements of operations in the period of change.
Offering Costs Associated with the Initial Public Offering
The Company complies with the requirements of the ASC Topic 340-10-S99-1, “Other Assets and Deferred Costs,” and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 5A, “Expenses of Offering.” Offering costs consisted of legal, accounting, underwriting fees and other costs incurred through the IPO that were directly related to the IPO. Offering costs are allocated to the separable financial instruments issued in the IPO based on a relative fair value basis, compared to total proceeds received. Offering costs associated with warrant liabilities are expensed as incurred and presented as non-operating expenses in the statements of operations. Offering costs associated with the Class A Common Stock (as defined below) were charged to temporary equity upon the completion of the IPO.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 2023
Class A Common Stock Subject to Possible Redemption
The Company accounts for its Class A Common Stock
subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance enumerated in ASC 480. Class A Common Stock subject to mandatory redemption
is classified as a liability instrument and is measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable Class A Common Stock (including Class
A Common Stock that features redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence
of uncertain events not solely within the Company’s control) is classified as temporary equity. At all other times, Class A Common
Stock is classified as stockholders’ equity (deficit). The Company’s Class A Common Stock contains certain redemption rights
that are considered by the Company to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to the occurrence of uncertain future events.
Accordingly, as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022,
The Company recognizes changes in redemption
value immediately as they occur and adjusts the carrying value of redeemable Class A Common Stock to equal the redemption value at the
end of each reporting period. This method would view the end of the reporting period as if it were also the redemption date for the security.
Such changes are reflected in additional paid-in capital, or in the absence of additional paid-in capital, in accumulated deficit. As
of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company recorded an accretion of $
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under ASC
740, “Income Taxes.” ASC 740 requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for both the expected impact
of differences between the unaudited condensed financial statements and tax basis of assets and liabilities and for the expected future
tax benefit to be derived from tax loss and tax credit carry forwards. ASC 740 additionally requires a valuation allowance to be established
when it is more likely than not that all or a portion of deferred tax assets will not be realized. As of March 31, 2023 and December
31, 2022, the Company’s deferred tax asset had a full valuation allowance recorded against it. The effective tax rate was
ASC 740 also clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. ASC 740 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim period, disclosure and transition.
The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. There were no unrecognized tax benefits and no amounts accrued for interest and penalties as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviation from its position.
The Company has identified the United States as its only “major” tax jurisdiction. The Company has been subject to income taxation by major taxing authorities since inception. These examinations may include questioning the timing and amount of deductions, the nexus of income among various tax jurisdictions and compliance with federal and state tax laws. The Company’s management does not expect that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits will materially change over the next twelve months.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company follows the guidance in ASC Topic 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 fair value of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities reflects management’s estimate of amounts that the Company would have received in connection with the sale of the assets or paid in connection with the transfer of the liabilities in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In connection with measuring the fair value of its assets and liabilities, the Company seeks to maximize the use of observable inputs (market data obtained from independent sources) and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs (internal assumptions about how market participants would price assets and liabilities). The following fair value hierarchy is used to classify assets and liabilities based on the observable inputs and unobservable inputs used in order to value the assets and liabilities:
Level 1 — | Valuations based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access. Valuation adjustments and block discounts are not being applied. Since valuations are based on quoted prices that are readily and regularly available in an active market, valuation of these securities does not entail a significant degree of judgment. |
Level 2 — | Valuations based on (i) quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities, (ii) quoted prices in markets that are not active for identical or similar assets, (iii) inputs other than quoted prices for the assets or liabilities, or (iv) inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by market through correlation or other means. |
Level 3 — | Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. |
Current assets and liabilities approximate fair market value. See Note 8 for additional information on assets and liabilities measured at fair value.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, “Debt - Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40)” (“ASU 2020-06”), to simplify accounting for certain financial instruments. ASU 2020-06 eliminates the current models that require separation of beneficial conversion and cash conversion features from convertible instruments and simplifies the derivative scope exception guidance pertaining to equity classification of contracts in an entity’s own equity. The new standard also introduces additional disclosures for convertible debt and freestanding instruments that are indexed to and settled in an entity’s own equity. ASU 2020-06 amends the diluted earnings per share guidance, including the requirement to use the if-converted method for all convertible instruments. As a smaller reporting company, ASU 2020-06 is effective January 1, 2024 for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023 and should be applied on a full or modified retrospective basis, with early adoption permitted beginning on January 1, 2021. The adoption of ASU 2020-06 would not have an impact on our financial statements.
The Company’s management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying condensed financial statements.

The Company will not be obligated to deliver any shares of Class A Common Stock pursuant to the exercise of a warrant and will have no obligation to settle such warrant exercise unless a registration statement under the Securities Act with respect to the shares of Class A Common Stock underlying the warrants is then effective and a prospectus is current. No warrant will be exercisable, and the Company will not be obligated to issue shares of Class A Common Stock upon exercise of a warrant unless Class A Common Stock issuable upon such warrant exercise has been registered, qualified or deemed to be exempt under the securities laws of the state of residence of the registered holder of the warrants. In no event will the Company be required to net cash settle any warrant. In the event that a registration statement is not effective for the exercised warrants, the purchaser of a unit containing such warrant will have paid the full purchase price for the unit solely for the share of Class A Common Stock underlying such unit.
Once the warrants become exercisable, the Company may call the warrants for redemption:
● | 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 to each warrant holder; and | |
● | if, and only if, the reported last sale price of the Class A Common Stock equals or exceeds $18.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period ending three business days before the Company send the notice of redemption to the warrant holders. |
If the Company calls the warrants for redemption as described above, the management will have the option to require any holder that wishes to exercise its warrant to do so on a “cashless basis.” If the management takes advantage of this option, all holders of warrants would pay the exercise price by surrendering their warrants for that number of shares of Class A Common Stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the product of the number of shares of Class A Common Stock underlying the warrants, multiplied by the excess of the “fair market value” (defined below) over the exercise price of the warrants by (y) the fair market value. The “fair market value” shall mean the average reported last sale price of the Class A Common Stock for the 10 trading days ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which the notice of redemption is sent to the holders of warrants.

The warrants are accounted for as liabilities in accordance with ASC 815-40 and are presented within warrant liabilities on the Balance Sheets. The warrant liabilities are measured at fair value at inception and on a recurring basis, with changes in fair value presented within change in fair value of warrant liabilities in the condensed statements of operations.
The Company established the initial fair value of the Public Warrants on January 20, 2021, the date of the Company’s IPO, using a Monte Carlo simulation model, and as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 by using the associated trading price of the Public Warrants. The Company established the initial fair value of the Private Placement Warrants on January 20, 2021 and on March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 by using a modified Black Scholes calculation. The Warrants were classified as Level 3 at the initial measurement date due to the use of unobservable inputs. The most significant unobservable input was the volatility. Significant increases (decreases) in the expected volatility in isolation would result in a significantly higher (lower) fair value measurement. The Public Warrants were subsequently transferred out of Level 3 and classified as Level 1, as of December 31, 2021, as the subsequent valuation was based upon the trading price of the Public Warrants. The Public Warrants were then transferred out of Level 1 and classified as Level 2 as of December 31, 2022, as there was no trading activity to support Level 1 valuation as of December 31, 2022. The Private Placement Warrants were classified as Level 3 at March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 due to the use of unobservable inputs.
There were no transfers to/from Level 1, 2, or 3 during the three months ended March 31, 2023. The following table presents the changes in the fair value of Level 3 warrant liabilities for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022:

Overview
We are a blank check company incorporated in Delaware on July 28, 2020 for the purpose of effecting an initial business combination. We intend to effectuate our business combination using cash derived from the proceeds of the initial public offering and the sale of the private placement warrants, our shares, debt or a combination of cash, shares and debt.
We expect to continue to incur significant costs in the pursuit of our acquisition plans. We cannot assure you that our plans to complete a business combination will be successful.
The registration statement for our initial public offering was declared effective on January 14, 2021. On January 20, 2021, we consummated our initial public offering of 14,950,000 units (including 1,950,000 units issued to the underwriters pursuant to the exercise in full of the over-allotment option granted to the underwriters) at $10.00 per unit, generating gross proceeds of $149.5 million, and incurring offering costs of approximately $8.8 million, inclusive of $5.2 million in deferred underwriting commissions.
Simultaneously with the closing of the initial public offering, we consummated the private placement of 7,057,000 warrants at a price of $1.00 per warrant to the sponsor, generating gross proceeds of approximately $7.1 million.
Upon the closing of the initial public offering and sale of the private placement warrants on January 20, 2021, $151.7 million ($10.15 per unit, which does not take into account contributions to the trust account by the Sponsor in connection with our charter extension amendments) of the net proceeds of the sales of the units in the initial public offering and the private placement warrants were placed in the trust account. The trust account is located in the United States with Continental acting as trustee, and was invested only in U.S. “government securities,” within the meaning of Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act., having a maturity of 185 days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 promulgated under the Investment Company Act, which invest only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations, as determined by the Company, until the earlier of: (i) the completion of an initial business combination and (ii) the distribution of the trust account as described below. On January 19, 2023, we liquidated the U.S. government treasury obligations or money market funds held in the trust account. The funds in the trust account will be maintained in cash in an interest-bearing demand deposit account at a bank until the earlier of consummation of our initial business combination and our liquidation. Interest on such deposit account is currently approximately 2.5 – 3.0% per annum, but such deposit account carries a variable rate, and we cannot assure you that such rate will not decrease or increase significantly.
On January 19, 2023, we held the Extension Meeting to, in part, amend our charter to extend the date by which we have to consummate a business combination from January 20, 2023 to April 20, 2023 (or up to January 20, 2024, if extended at the request of our sponsor). On April 17, 2023, the board of directors of the Company approved an extension of the Termination Date from April 20, 2023 to May 20, 2023 and a draw of an aggregate of $90,000 pursuant to the Extension Note (as defined below). In connection with the extension vote, 11,049,283 public shares of our common stock were redeemed for an aggregate redemption amount of approximately $114,017,035.26. After the satisfaction of such redemptions, the balance in our trust account was approximately $40,251,316.60.
19
If we have not completed an initial business combination by the Termination Date, we will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem the public shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the trust account, including interest earned on the funds held in the trust account and not previously released to us to pay its taxes (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then outstanding public shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public stockholders’ rights as stockholders (including the right to receive further liquidating distributions, if any), and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the remaining stockholders and our board of directors, liquidate and dissolve, subject in each case to our obligations under Delaware law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law.
Results of Operations
We have neither engaged in any operations nor generated any revenues to date. Our only activities through March 31, 2023 were organizational activities, those necessary to prepare for our initial public offering, described below, and identifying a target company for a business combination. We do not expect to generate any operating revenues until after the completion of our business combination, at the earliest. We generate non-operating income in the form of interest income on marketable securities held in the trust account. We incur expenses as a result of being a public company (for legal, financial reporting, accounting and auditing compliance), as well as for due diligence expenses.
For the three months ended March 31, 2023, we had a net loss of approximately $1 million which included loss from operations of approximately $0.4 million, change in fair value of warrant liabilities of $1 million and provision for income tax of $0.1 million, offset by interest earned on trust account of approximately $0.6 million.
For the three months ended March 31, 2022, we had a net income of approximately $4.2 million which included a gain from the change in fair value of warrant liabilities of $4.7 million and interest earned on trust account of $0.02 million, offset by loss from operations of approximately $0.4 million.
Factors That May Adversely Affect our Results of Operations
Our results of operations and our ability to complete an initial Business Combination may be adversely affected by various factors that could cause economic uncertainty and volatility in the financial markets, many of which are beyond our control. Our business could be impacted by, among other things, downturns in the financial markets or in economic conditions, increases in oil prices, inflation, increases in interest rates, supply chain disruptions, declines in consumer confidence and spending, the ongoing effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, including resurgences and the emergence of new variants, and geopolitical instability, such as the military conflict in Ukraine. We cannot at this time fully predict the likelihood of one or more of the above events, their duration or magnitude or the extent to which they may negatively impact our business and our ability to complete and initial Business Combination.
Liquidity and Going Concern
As of March 31, 2023, we had $6,724 in our operating bank account and working capital deficit of $3,683,824.
The Company’s liquidity needs up to our Initial Public Offering had been satisfied through a capital contribution from the sponsor of $25,000 for the founder shares and the loan under an unsecured promissory note from the sponsor for $145,000. The outstanding balance on the promissory note from the sponsor was paid in full from the initial public offering proceeds on February 26, 2021. Subsequent to the consummation of the initial public offering, our liquidity needs had been satisfied through the net proceeds from the consummation of the sale of the private placement warrants not held in the trust account and advances from our Sponsor. In addition, in order to finance transaction costs in connection with an initial business combination, our sponsor or an affiliate of our sponsor, or certain of our officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, provide us working capital loans.
On December 14, 2021, we issued the 2021 Note in the principal amount of up to $1,500,000 to our sponsor. The 2021 Note was issued in connection with advances the Sponsor has made, and may make in the future, to the Company for working capital expenses. If we complete a business combination, we will repay the 2021 Note out of the proceeds of the trust account released to us. Otherwise, the 2021 Note will be repaid only out of funds held outside the trust account. In the event that a business combination does not close, we may use a portion of the working capital held outside the trust account to repay the 2021 Note but no proceeds from the trust account will be used to repay the 2021 Note. At the election of the sponsor, all or a portion of the unpaid principal amount of the 2021 Note may be converted into warrants of the Company at a price of $1.00 per warrant (the “Conversion Warrants”). The Conversion Warrants and their underlying securities are entitled to the registration rights set forth in the 2021 Note. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there was $1,500,000 outstanding under the 2021 Note.
20
On July 20, 2022, we issued an unsecured promissory note in the principal amount of up to $747,500 (the “2022 Note”) to our sponsor. The 2022 Note does not bear interest and matures upon closing of OCA’s initial business combination. In the event that we do not consummate an initial business combination, the 2022 Note will be repaid only from funds held outside of the trust account or will be forfeited, eliminated or otherwise forgiven. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there was $1,017,500 and $747,500 outstanding under the 2022 Note, respectively.
On January 19, 2023, we issued an unsecured promissory note in the principal amount of $1,080,000 (the “Extension Note”) to our sponsor. The Extension Note does not bear interest and matures upon closing of OCA’s initial business combination. In the event that we do not consummate an initial business combination, the Extension Note will be repaid only from funds held outside of the trust account or will be forfeited, eliminated or otherwise forgiven.
Based on the foregoing, management believes that the Company will have sufficient working capital and borrowing capacity to meet its needs through the earlier of the consummation of an initial business combination or one year from this filing. Over this time period, we will be using these funds held outside of the trust account for paying existing accounts payable, identifying and evaluating prospective initial business combination candidates, performing due diligence on prospective target businesses, paying for travel expenditures, selecting the target business to merge with or acquire, and structuring, negotiating and consummating the initial business combination.
In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with FASB’s Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) Topic 2014-15, “Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern,” the Company has until April 20, 2023 (or up to January 20, 2024, if extended at the request of the Company’s sponsor) to consummate an initial business combination. It is uncertain that the Company will be able to consummate an initial business combination by this time. If an initial business combination is not consummated by this date and an extension not requested by the Sponsor, there will be a mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution of the Company. Management has determined that the liquidity condition and mandatory liquidation, should an initial business combination not occur and an extension is not requested by the Sponsor, and potential subsequent dissolution raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. No adjustments have been made to the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities should the Company be required to liquidate after April 20, 2023 (or up to January 20, 2024, if extended at the request of the Company’s sponsor). On April 17, 2023, the board of directors of the Company approved an extension of the Termination Date from April 20, 2023 to May 20, 2023 and a draw of an aggregate of $90,000 pursuant to the Extension Note. The Company intends to complete an initial business combination before the mandatory liquidation date.
Contractual Obligations
We did not have any long-term debt obligations, capital lease obligations, operating lease obligations, purchase obligations or long-term liabilities, other than deferred underwriting fees of $5,232,500, $1,500,000 outstanding under the 2021 Note and $728,780 of amounts due to our Sponsor at March 31, 2023.
Critical Accounting Estimates
Use of Estimates
This management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of our financial statements in conformity with U.S. 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 expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.
21
Warrants Liability
We evaluated the warrants in accordance with Financial Accounting Standard Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 815-40, “Derivatives and Hedging — Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity” (“ASC 815-40”) and concluded that a provision in the Warrant Agreement, dated January 14, 2021, by and between the Company and Continental, as warrant agent, related to certain tender or exchange offers as well as provisions that provided for potential changes to the settlement amounts dependent upon the characteristics of the holder of the warrant, precludes the warrants from being accounted for as components of equity. As the warrants meet the definition of a “derivative” as contemplated in ASC 815-40 and are not eligible for an exception from derivative accounting, the warrants are recorded as derivative liabilities on the Balance Sheets in the accompanying financial statements and measured at fair value at inception (on the date of the initial public offering) and at each reporting date in accordance with ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurement”, with changes in fair value recognized in the Statements of Operations in the accompanying financial statements in the period of change.
The estimates used to calculate the fair value of our derivative assets and liabilities change at each balance sheet date based on our stock price and other assumptions. If our assumptions change or we experience significant volatility in our stock price or interest rates, the fair value calculated from one balance sheet period to the next could be materially different.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The Company’s management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying condensed financial statements.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of March 31, 2023 we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as defined in Item 303(a)(4)(ii) of Regulation S-K.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Not required for smaller reporting companies.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
