NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1 - Description of Organization, Business Operations and Going Concern
AlphaTime
Acquisition Corp (the “Company”) was incorporated in Cayman Islands on
As on June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had not commenced any operations. All activities for the period from September 15, 2021 (inception) through June 30, 2024, relates to the Company’s organizational activities, those necessary to prepare for and complete the initial public offering (“IPO”), identifying a target company for a business combination and activities in connection with the business combination. The Company will not generate any operating revenues until the completion of its initial Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company will generate non-operating income in the form of interest income from the proceeds derived from the IPO. The Company has selected December 31 as its fiscal year end.
The
Company’s sponsor is Alphamade Holding LP, a Delaware limited partnership (the “Sponsor”). The registration statement
for the Company’s IPO was declared effective on December 30, 2022 (the “Effective Date”). On January 4, 2023, the Company
consummated the IPO of units (the “Units”). Each Unit consists of one ordinary share of the Company, par value
$ per share (the “Ordinary Shares”), one redeemable warrant (the “Warrants”) and one right (the “Rights”),
with each Right entitling the holder thereof to receive one-tenth of one Ordinary Share upon the completion of an initial Business Combination,
subject to adjustment. The Units were sold at a price of $per Unit, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $
Simultaneously
with the closing of the IPO, the Company completed the sale of private units to the Sponsor (the “Private Units”)
at a purchase price of $ per Private Unit, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $
Following
the closing of the IPO and the sale of over-allotment units, an aggregate of $
The
Company’s management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the IPO and the sale
of Private Units, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be applied generally toward consummating a Business
Combination. The stock exchange listing rules require that the Business Combination must be with one or more operating businesses or
assets with a fair market value equal to at least
| F-5 |
The Company will provide the holders of the outstanding Public Shares (the “Public Shareholders”) with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares either (i) in connection with a shareholder meeting called to approve the Business Combination or (ii) by means of a tender offer in connection with the Business Combination. 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. The Public Shareholders will be entitled to redeem their Public Shares for a pro rata portion of the amount then in the Trust Account (initially anticipated to be $ per Public Share, plus any pro rata interest then in the Trust Account, net of taxes payable). The Public Shares subject to redemption will be recorded at a redemption value and classified as temporary equity upon the completion of the IPO in accordance with the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.”
The
Company will not redeem Public Shares in an amount that would cause its net tangible assets to be less than $
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 15% of the Public Shares without the Company’s prior written consent.
The Sponsor has agreed (a) to waive its redemption rights with respect to any Founder Shares and Public Shares held by it in connection with the completion of a Business Combination and (b) not to propose an amendment to the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association (i) to modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to allow redemption in connection with the Company’s initial business combination or to redeem 100% of the Public Shares if the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period (as defined below) or (ii) with respect to any other provision relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-initial business combination activity, unless the Company provides the Public Shareholders with the opportunity to redeem their Public Shares upon approval of any such amendment 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 Trust account and not previously released to pay taxes, divided by the number of then issued and outstanding Public Shares.
On
September 27, 2023, the Company extended the time to complete its initial business combination from October 4, 2023 to January 4, 2024
by depositing an aggregate of $

At
an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders held on December 28, 2023 (the “Meeting”), the Company adopted the Company’s
Third Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association (the “Third Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association”)
reflecting the extension of the date by which the Company must consummate a business combination from January 4, 2024 (the “Termination
Date”) up to ten (10) times, the first extension comprised of three months, and the subsequent nine (9) extensions comprised of
one month each (each an “Extension”) up to January 4, 2025 (i.e., for a period of time ending up to 24 months after the consummation
of its Initial Public Offering for a total of twelve (12) months after the Termination Date (assuming a business combination has not
occurred). The Company also entered into an amendment (the “Trust Agreement Amendment”) to the Investment Management Trust
Agreement, dated as of December 30, 2022, with Equiniti Trust Company, LLC (as amended, the “Trust Agreement”). Pursuant
to the Trust Agreement Amendment, the Company has extended the date by which it has to complete a business combination from the Termination
Date up to ten (10) times, with the first extension comprised of three months, and the subsequent nine (9) extensions comprised of one
month each from the Termination Date, or extended date, as applicable, to January 4, 2025 by providing five days’ advance notice
to the trustee prior to the applicable Termination Date, or extended date, and depositing into the Trust Account $
On
January 4, 2024, the Company deposited $
However,
if the Company has not completed a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the Company will (i) cease all operations except
for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem 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 and not previously released to us to pay our taxes, if any (less up to $
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) $ per Public Share and (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 $ per Public Share, due to reductions in the value of trust assets, in each case net of the interest that may be withdrawn to pay taxes. 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 underwriters of the IPO 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.

Pursuant
to the extension amendment approved by the shareholders by special resolution at the meeting on December 28, 2023, the Company has adopted
the Company’s Third Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, reflecting the extension of the date by which
the Company must consummate a business combination from January 4, 2024, (the “Termination Date”) up to ten (10) times, with
the first extension comprised of three months, and the subsequent nine (9) extensions comprised of one month each up to January 4, 2025,
by providing five days’ advance notice to the trustee prior to the applicable Termination Date, or extended date, and depositing
into the trust account (the “Trust Account”) $
In
connection with the shareholders’ vote at the meeting on December 28, 2023, ordinary shares of the Company exercised
their right to redeem such shares (the “Redemption”) for a pro rata portion of the funds held in the Trust Account. As a
result, approximately $
On January 5, 2024, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) by and among the Company, HCYC Holding Company (“PubCo”), ATMC Merger Sub 1 Limited (“Merger Sub 1”), ATMC Merger Sub 2 Limited (“Merger Sub 2”), and HCYC Merger Sub Limited (“Merger Sub 3”, and together with PubCo, Merger Sub 1 and Merger Sub 2, the “Acquisition Entities”), and HCYC Group Company Limited, Cayman Islands exempted company (“HCYC”). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the parties thereto will enter into a business combination transaction by which (i) the Company will merge with and into Merger Sub 1, with the Company surviving such merger; (ii) the Company will merge with and into Merger Sub 2, with Merger Sub 2 surviving such merger; and (iii) HCYC will merge with and into Merger Sub 3, with HCYC surviving such merger (collectively, the “Mergers”). The Merger Agreement and the Mergers were unanimously approved by the boards of directors of each of the Company and HCYC. The Business Combination is expected to be consummated after obtaining the required approval by the shareholders of the Company and HCYC and the satisfaction of certain other customary closing conditions.
| F-8 |
Accordingly, the accompanying condensed financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP, which contemplates continuation of the Company as a going concern and the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The condensed financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Further, we have incurred and expect to continue to incur significant costs in pursuit of our financing and acquisition plans. Management plans to address this uncertainty during the period leading up to the Initial Business Combination. The Company cannot provide any assurance that its plans to raise capital or to consummate an Initial Business Combination will be successful. Based on the foregoing, management believes that the Company lacks the financial resources it needs to sustain operations for a reasonable period of time. Moreover, management’s plans to consummate the initial business combination may not be successful. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
Risks and Uncertainties
Management is currently evaluating the impact of the risk of bank failures and has concluded that while it is reasonably possible that the bank failures could have a negative effect on the Company’s financial position, results of its operations, and/or search for a target company, the specific impact is not readily determinable as of the date of these unaudited condensed financial statements. The unaudited condensed financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Further, the Company doesn’t have any bank accounts which are associated with failure risk but will keep monitoring any such effects that might impact the company’s financial position.
On
August 16, 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (the “IR Act”) was signed into federal law. The IR Act provides for,

Note 2 - Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements are presented in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC.
The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements as of June 30, 2024, have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP for interim financial information and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal accruals) considered for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2024, or any future period.
Emerging Growth Company Status
The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, as amended (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 shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.
| F-9 |
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 an election to opt out is irrevocable. We have 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, we, 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 our 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.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statement in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the Company’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited condensed financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. 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 June 30, 2024, the Company’s investment held in Trust Account invested in money market fund, which are considered cash equivalents
and included in the investment held in Trust Account in the accompanying balance sheets. The Company had
Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial
instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist of a cash account in a financial institution
which, at times may exceed the Federal depository insurance coverage of $
Offering Costs
The
offering costs were $
Investment Held in Trust Account
The Company’s portfolio of investment held in the Trust Account is mainly comprised of investments in U.S. government securities and generally have a readily determinable fair value, or a combination thereof. Gains and losses resulting from the change in fair value of these securities and income earned from the investments held in the Trust Account is included in income earned on Trust Account in the accompanying statements of operations. The estimated fair values of investment held in the Trust Account are determined using available market information.
Income earned on these investments will be fully reinvested into the investment held in Trust Account and therefore considered as an adjustment to reconcile net income (loss) to net cash used in operating activities in the statements of cash flows. Such income reinvested will be used to redeem all or a portion of the ordinary shares upon the completion of business combination.
| F-10 |
The Company complies with the accounting and disclosure requirements of FASB ASC 260, Earnings Per Share. In order to determine the net income (loss) attributable to both the redeemable shares and non-redeemable shares, the Company first considered the undistributed income (loss) allocable to both the redeemable shares and non-redeemable shares and the undistributed income (loss) is calculated using the total net income (loss) less any dividends paid. The Company then allocated the undistributed income (loss) ratably based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding between the redeemable and non-redeemable shares. Any remeasurement of the accretion to redemption value of the ordinary shares subject to possible redemption was considered to be dividends paid to the public shareholders. As of June 30, 2024, the Company did not have any dilutive securities and other contracts that could, potentially, be exercised or converted into ordinary shares and then share in the earnings of the Company. As a result, diluted income/(loss) per share is the same as basic income/(loss) per share for the period presented.

The Company accounts for warrants as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the warrant’s specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) ASC 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity” (“ASC 480”) and ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”). The assessment considers whether the warrants are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, whether they meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and whether the warrants meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the warrants are indexed to the Company’s own ordinary shares and whether the warrant holders could potentially require “net cash settlement” in a circumstance outside of the Company’s control, among other conditions for equity classification. This assessment, which requires the use of professional judgment, is conducted at the time of warrant issuance and as of each subsequent quarterly period end date while the warrants are outstanding.
For issued or modified warrants that meet all of the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded as a component of equity at the time of issuance. For issued or modified warrants that do not meet all the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded as liabilities at their initial fair value on the date of issuance, and each balance sheet date thereafter. As the Company’s warrants meet all the criteria for equity classification, both public and private warrants are classified in shareholders’ equity/(deficit).
The Company accounts for its ordinary shares subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” Ordinary shares subject to mandatory redemption (if any) is classified as a liability instrument and is measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable ordinary shares (including ordinary shares 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, ordinary shares are classified as shareholders’ equity. The Company’s ordinary shares feature certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to the occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, as of June 30, 2024, ordinary shares subject to possible redemption are presented at redemption value of $ per share (plus any income earned on Trust Account) as temporary equity, outside of the shareholders’ equity section of the Company’s balance sheets. The Company recognizes changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and adjusts the carrying value of redeemable ordinary shares to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Increases or decreases in the carrying amount of redeemable ordinary shares are affected by charges against additional paid in capital and accumulated deficit. The Company allocates gross proceeds between the Public Shares, Public Warrants and Public Rights based on the relative fair values of the Public Shares, Public Warrants and Public Rights.

Income Taxes
The Company follows the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes under ASC 740, “Income Taxes.” Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statements carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that is included in the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.
ASC
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 and
Income earned from U.S. debt obligations held by the Trust Account is intended to qualify for the portfolio income exemption or otherwise be exempt from U.S. withholding taxes. Furthermore, shareholders of the Company’s shares may be subject to tax in their respective jurisdictions based on applicable law, for instance, United States persons may be subject to tax on amounts deemed received depending on whether the Company is a passive foreign investment company and whether U.S. persons have made any applicable tax elections permitted under applicable law. The provision for income taxes was deemed to be immaterial.
There is currently no taxation imposed on income by the Government of the Cayman Islands. In accordance with Cayman income tax regulations, income taxes are not levied on the Company. Consequently, income taxes are not reflected in the Company’s unaudited condensed financial statements.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
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 unaudited condensed financial statements.

Note 8 - Fair Value Measurements
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: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. An active market for an asset or liability is a market in which transactions for the asset or liability occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.
Level 2: Observable inputs other than Level 1 inputs. Examples of Level 2 inputs include quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities and quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.
Level 3: Unobservable inputs based on our assessment of the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. The following table presents information about the Company’s assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 and indicate the fair value hierarchy of the valuation inputs the Company utilized to determine such fair value.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
References to the “Company,” “our,” “us” or “we” refer to AlphaTime Acquisition Corp. The following discussion and analysis of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed financial statements and the notes related thereto. Certain information contained in the discussion and analysis set forth below includes forward-looking statements. Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of many factors.
We are a blank check company incorporated on September 15, 2021 (“inception”) as a Cayman Islands exempted company and formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses. We have generated no revenues to date, and we do not expect that we will generate operating revenues at the earliest until we consummate our initial business combination. We have not selected any specific business combination target and we have not, nor has anyone on our behalf, engaged in any substantive discussions, directly or indirectly, with any business combination target with respect to an initial business combination with us.
While we may pursue an acquisition or a business combination target in any business or industry, we intend to focus our search on a rapidly-growing and large-scaled target, including but not limited to, targets in the following space: fintech, alternative and clean energy, biotech, logistics, industrial software, artificial intelligence (“AI”) and cloud industry, that can benefit from the expertise and capabilities of our management team. Our efforts in identifying prospective target businesses will not be limited to a particular geographic region, although we intend to focus on businesses in Asia.
Results of Operations
We have neither engaged in any operations nor generated any revenues to date. Our only activities since inception to June 30, 2024, have been organizational activities and those necessary to consummate the Initial Public Offering (“IPO”), described below. Following our IPO, we will not generate any operating revenues until the completion of our initial business combination. We will generate non-operating income in the form of interest income after the IPO. We expect to incur increased expenses as a result of being a public company (for legal, financial reporting, accounting and auditing compliance), as well as for due diligence expenses.
For the three months ended June 30, 2024, we had a net income of $385,370, which consists of loss of $290,467 derived from formation and operating costs offset by income earned on investment held in Trust Account of $675,837.
For the six months ended June 30, 2024, we had a net income of $827,635, which consists of loss of $635,370 derived from formation and operating costs offset by income earned on investment held in Trust Account of $1,463,005.
For the three months ended June 30, 2023, we had a net income of $701,529, which consists of loss of $140,291 derived from formation and operating costs offset by income earned on Trust Account of $841,820.
For the six months ended June 30, 2023, we had a net income of $1,226,272 which consists of loss of $347,790 derived from formation and operating costs offset by income earned on Trust Account of $1,574,062.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
On January 4, 2023, we consummated our IPO of 6,000,000 units (the “Units”), at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $60,000,000. Simultaneously with the closing of our IPO, we consummated the sale of 370,500 Private Placement Units at a price of $10.00 per Private Placement Unit in a private placement to the Sponsor, generating total gross proceeds of $3,705,000.
On January 6, 2023, and effective January 9, 2023, the underwriters in our IPO purchased an additional 900,000 Units to exercise its over-allotment option in full at a purchase price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $9,000,000. Simultaneously with the closing of the full exercise of the over-allotment option, we completed the private sale of an aggregate of 38,700 Private Placement Units, at a purchase price of $10.00 per Private Placement Unit, generating gross proceeds of $387,000. Transaction costs amounted to $4,892,699 consisting of $1,612,500 of underwriting discount, $2,415,000 of deferred underwriting commission and $865,199 of other offering costs.
| 1 |
Following the closing of our IPO and the sale of over-allotment units, an aggregate of $70,242,000 ($10.18 per Unit) from the net proceeds and the sale of the Private Placement Units was held in a Trust Account (“Trust Account”). As of June 30, 2024, we had marketable securities held in the Trust Account of $52,553,058 consisting of securities held in a treasury money market fund that invests in United States government treasury bills, bonds or notes with a maturity of 180 days or less. We intend to use substantially all of the funds held in the Trust Account, including any amounts representing income earned on the Trust Account (less amounts released to us for taxes payable and deferred underwriting commissions) to complete our initial business combination. We may withdraw interest and dividend income to pay taxes, if any. Our annual income tax obligations will depend on the amount of interest and other income earned on the amounts held in the Trust Account. We expect the interest and dividend income earned on the amount in the Trust Account (if any) will be sufficient to pay our taxes. Through June 30, 2024, we did not withdraw any income earned on the Trust Account to pay our taxes. To the extent that our equity or debt is used, in whole or in part, as consideration to complete our initial business combination, the remaining proceeds held in the Trust Account will be used as working capital to finance the operations of the target business or businesses, make other acquisitions and pursue our growth strategies.
As of June 30, 2024, we had a cash balance of $1,473 and a working capital deficit of $2,446,171. Until the consummation of our IPO, our liquidity needs were satisfied through a capital contribution from our Sponsor of $25,000 to purchase the founder shares. As on June 30, 2024, there was an amount of $1,042,500 outstanding as loans against a promissory note issued to the Sponsor for extension of the period of business combination from October 4, 2023 to July 4, 2024 which was deposited into the Trust Account. Subsequent to June 30, 2024, the company has deposited $110,000 to extend the timeline for completion of business combination from July 4, 2024 to September 4, 2024. The Company expects that it will need additional capital to satisfy its liquidity needs beyond the net proceeds from the consummation of the IPO and the proceeds held outside of the Trust Account for paying existing accounts payable, identifying and evaluating prospective 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. Although certain of the Company’s initial shareholders, officers and directors or their affiliates have committed to loan the Company funds from time to time or at any time, in whatever amount they deem reasonable in their sole discretion, there is no guarantee that the Company will receive such funds.
The Company will use funds held outside the Trust Account primarily to identify and evaluate target businesses, perform business due diligence on prospective target businesses, travel to and from the offices, plants or similar locations of prospective target businesses or their representatives or owners, review corporate documents and material agreements of prospective target businesses, and structure, negotiate and complete a business combination. In addition, we could use a portion of the funds not being placed in trust to pay commitment fees for financing, fees to consultants to assist us with our search for a target business or as a down payment or to fund a “no-shop” provision (a provision designed to keep target businesses from “shopping” around for transactions with other companies or investors on terms more favorable to such target businesses) with respect to a particular proposed business combination, although we do not have any current intention to do so. If we entered into an agreement where we paid for the right to receive exclusivity from a target business, the amount that would be used as a down payment or to fund a “no-shop” provision would be determined based on the terms of the specific business combination and the amount of our available funds at the time. Our forfeiture of such funds (whether as a result of our breach or otherwise) could result in our not having sufficient funds to continue searching for, or conducting due diligence with respect to, prospective target businesses.
In order to fund working capital deficiencies or finance transaction costs in connection with an intended initial business combination, our founders or an affiliate of our founders may, but are not obligated to, loan us funds as may be required. If we complete our initial business combination, we will repay such loaned amounts. In the event that our 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. Up to $1,042,500 of such loans may be convertible into working capital units, at a price of $10.00 per unit at the option of the lender. The working capital units would be identical to the private units, each consisting of one ordinary share, one private warrant and one right with the same exercise price, exercisability and exercise period, subject to similar limited restrictions as compared to the units sold in our IPO. The terms of such loans by our founders or their affiliates, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such loans. We do not expect to seek loans from parties other than our founders or an affiliate of our founders as we do not believe third parties will be willing to loan such funds and provide a waiver against any and all rights to seek access to funds in our trust account, but in the event that we seek loans from any third parties, we will obtain a waiver against any and all rights to seek access to funds in our trust account.

Pursuant to the extension amendment approved by the shareholders by special resolution at the meeting on December 28, 2023, the Company has adopted the Company’s Third Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, reflecting the extension of the date by which the Company must consummate a business combination from January 4, 2024, (the “Termination Date”) up to ten (10) times, with the first extension comprised of three months, and the subsequent nine (9) extensions comprised of one month each up to January 4, 2025, by providing five days’ advance notice to the trustee prior to the applicable Termination Date, or extended date, and depositing into the trust account (the “Trust Account”) $55,000 for each monthly extension (the “Extension Payment”) up to January 4, 2025 (i.e., for a period of time ending up to 24 months after the consummation of its initial public offering) in exchange for a non-interest bearing, unsecured promissory note payable upon the consummation of a business combination.
In connection with the shareholders’ vote at the meeting on December 28, 2023, 2,160,774 ordinary shares of the Company exercised their right to redeem such shares (the “Redemption”) for a pro rata portion of the funds held in the Trust Account. As a result, approximately $23,302,146 (approximately $10.78 per share) has been removed from the Trust Account to pay such holders and approximately $51,712,221 remained in the Trust Account. Following the redemptions, the Company has 6,873,426 ordinary shares outstanding.
On January 5, 2024, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) by and among the Company, HCYC Holding Company (“PubCo”), ATMC Merger Sub 1 Limited (“Merger Sub 1”), ATMC Merger Sub 2 Limited (“Merger Sub 2”), and HCYC Merger Sub Limited (“Merger Sub 3”, and together with PubCo, Merger Sub 1 and Merger Sub 2, the “Acquisition Entities”), and HCYC Group Company Limited, Cayman Islands exempted company (“HCYC”). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the parties thereto will enter into a business combination transaction by which (i) the Company will merge with and into Merger Sub 1, with the Company surviving such merger; (ii) the Company will merge with and into Merger Sub 2, with Merger Sub 2 surviving such merger; and (iii) HCYC will merge with and into Merger Sub 3, with HCYC surviving such merger (collectively, the “Mergers”). The Merger Agreement and the Mergers were unanimously approved by the boards of directors of each of the Company and HCYC. The Business Combination is expected to be consummated after obtaining the required approval by the shareholders of the Company and HCYC and the satisfaction of certain other customary closing conditions.
Accordingly, the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP, which contemplates continuation of the Company as a going concern and the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The unaudited condensed financial statement does not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Further, we have incurred and expect to continue to incur significant costs in pursuit of our financing and acquisition plans. Management plans to address this uncertainty during the period leading up to the Initial Business Combination. The Company cannot provide any assurance that its plans to raise capital or to consummate an Initial Business Combination will be successful. Based on the foregoing, management believes that the Company lacks the financial resources it needs to sustain operations for a reasonable period of time. Moreover, management’s plans to consummate the initial business combination may not be successful. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
The net proceeds of the IPO and the sale of the Private Placement Units held in the Trust Account are invested in U.S. government treasury securities with a maturity of 180 days or less or in money market funds investing solely in U.S. Treasuries and meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act. Due to the short-term nature of these investments, we believe there will be no associated material exposure to interest rate risk.

Related Party Transactions
On September 28, 2021, our Sponsor received 1,437,500 of the Company’s Class B ordinary shares in exchange for $25,000 paid for deferred offering costs borne by our Sponsor.
On January 8, 2022, the board of directors of the Company and our Sponsor, as sole shareholder of the Company, approved, through a special resolution, the following share capital changes:
| (a) | Each of the authorized but unissued 200,000,000 Class A ordinary shares were cancelled and re-designated as ordinary shares of $0.0001 par value each; | |
| (b) | Each of the 1,437,500 Class B ordinary shares in issue were repurchased in consideration for the issuance of 1,437,500 ordinary shares of $0.0001 par value each; and | |
| (c) | Upon completion of the above steps, the authorized but unissued 20,000,000 Class B ordinary shares were cancelled. |
On January 8, 2022, the Company issued an additional 287,500 ordinary shares to our Sponsor for no additional consideration, resulting in our Sponsor holding an aggregate of 1,725,000 ordinary shares (the founder shares). The issuance was considered as a bonus share issuance, in substance a recapitalization transaction, which was recorded and presented retroactively. The founder shares include an aggregate of up to 225,000 ordinary shares subject to forfeiture to the extent that the underwriters’ over-allotment is not exercised in full or in part.
Prior to the initial investment in the Company of $25,000 by our Sponsor, the Company had no assets, tangible or intangible. The number of founder shares issued was determined based on the expectation that such founder shares would represent 20% of the outstanding shares upon completion of the IPO (excluding the private shares and shares underlying the UPO). The per share purchase price of the founder shares was determined by dividing the amount of cash contributed to the Company by the aggregate number of founder shares issued.
Our founders and advisors, or any of their respective affiliates, will be reimbursed for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with activities on our behalf such as identifying potential target businesses and performing due diligence on suitable business combinations. Our audit committee will review on a quarterly basis all payments that were made to our founders, advisors or our or their affiliates and will determine which expenses and the amount of expenses that will be reimbursed. There is no cap or ceiling on the reimbursement of out-of-pocket expenses incurred by such persons in connection with activities on our behalf.
On September 30, 2021, our sponsor agreed to loan us up to $300,000 to be used for a portion of the expenses of the IPO. This loan is non-interest bearing, unsecure and is due at the earlier of (1) December 31, 2022, and (2) the consummation of the IPO. On December 31, 2022, there were no amounts outstanding, and the Promissory Notes had then expired.
In addition, in order to finance transaction costs in connection with an intended initial business combination, our founders or an affiliate of our founders may, but are not obligated to, loan us funds as may be required. If we complete our initial business combination, we will repay such loaned amounts. In the event that our 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. Up to $300,000 of such loans may be convertible into working capital units, at a price of $10.00 per unit at the option of the lender. Such working capital units would be identical to the private units sold in the private placement. The terms of such loans by our founders or their affiliates, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such loans. We do not expect to seek loans from parties other than our founders or an affiliate of our founders as we do not believe third parties will be willing to loan such funds and provide a waiver against any and all rights to seek access to funds in our trust account, but in the event that we seek loans from any third parties, we will obtain a waiver against any and all rights to seek access to funds in our trust account.

Private Placement Units
On January 4, 2023, simultaneously with the closing of our IPO, we consummated the sale of 370,500 Private Placement Units at a price of $10.00 per Private Placement Unit in a private placement to the Sponsor, generating total gross proceeds of $3,705,000.
On January 6, 2023, and effective January 9, 2023, the underwriters in our IPO purchased an additional 900,000 Units to exercise its over-allotment option in full at a purchase price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $9,000,000. Simultaneously with the closing of the full exercise of the over-allotment option, we completed the private sale of an aggregate of 38,700 Private Placement Units, at a purchase price of $10.00 per Private Placement Unit, generating gross proceeds of $387,000.
Our Sponsor will be permitted to transfer the private units held by them to certain permitted transferees, including our officers and directors and other persons or entities affiliated with or related to it or them, but the transferees receiving such securities will be subject to the same agreements with respect to such securities as the founders. Otherwise, these private units (and underlying securities) will be subject to certain transfer restrictions, subject to certain limited exceptions, as described under “Principal Shareholders — Restrictions on Transfers of Founder Shares and Private Units.”
Promissory Note — Related Party
On September 30, 2021, the Sponsor issued an unsecured promissory note to the Company (the “Promissory Note”), pursuant to which the Company may borrow up to an aggregate principal amount of $300,000. The Promissory Note was amended and restated on November 23, 2021, to change the December 31, 2021 due date to March 31, 2022, amended and restated on January 26, 2022 to change the March 31, 2022 due date to May 31, 2022 and amended and restated again on October 20, 2022 to change the May 31, 2022 due date to December 31, 2022. The Promissory Note was non-interest bearing and payable on the earlier of (i) December 31, 2022, or (ii) the consummation of the IPO.
On September 27, 2023, the Company notified Equiniti Trust Company, the trustee of the Company’s trust account (the “Trust Account”), that it was extending the time available to the Company to consummate its initial business combination from October 4, 2023, to January 4, 2024 (the “Extension”). The Extension is the first of up to three (3) three-month extensions permitted under the Company’s governing documents.
On September 27, 2023, the Company extended the time to complete its initial business combination from October 4, 2023 to January 4, 2024 by depositing an aggregate of $690,000 into the Trust Account. In connection with this extension, on September 26, 2023, the Company also entered into a non-interest bearing promissory note with the Sponsor for $690,000, that is payable on the earlier of January 4, 2024 or promptly after the completion of an initial business combination. On January 4, 2024, the Company deposited $165,000 into the Trust Account to extend the deadline to complete the business combination from January 4, 2024 to April 4, 2024. On February 20, 2024, the Company further raised $20,000 from the sponsor against a promissory note. In connection with this extension, on December 28, 2023, the Company entered into a non-interest bearing promissory note with the Sponsor for $660,000, that is payable on the earlier of January 4, 2025 or promptly after the completion of an initial business combination. As on June 30, 2024, there was an amount of $1,042,500 outstanding as loan against a promissory note issued to the Sponsor for extension of the period of business combination from October 4, 2023 to July 4, 2024. Subsequently to June 30, 2024, the company has deposited $110,000 to extend the timeline for completion of business combination from July 4, 2024 to September 4, 2024.
Due to Related Party
The Sponsor paid certain formation, operating or deferred offering costs on behalf of the Company. These amounts are due on demand and non-interest bearing. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31 2023, due to related party amounted to $449,708 and $199,318, respectively.
Administration fee
Commencing on the effective date of the registration statement, an affiliate of the Sponsor shall be allowed to charge the Company an allocable share of its overhead, up to $10,000 per month up to the close of the business combination, to compensate it for the Company’s use of its offices, utilities and personnel. An administration fee of $30,000 and $60,000 was recorded and paid for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 respectively.

Other Contractual Obligations
Underwriting Agreement
We granted the underwriters a 45-day option from the date of IPO to purchase up to 900,000 additional Units to cover over-allotments, if any, at the IPO price less the underwriting discounts and commissions. The underwriters exercised the over-allotment option in full effective January 9, 2023. Simultaneously, on January 4, 2023, an amount of $352,350 due to related party was converted into over-allotment of Private Placement, and the underwriter deposited additional $34,650 on behalf of Sponsor for 17,325 Founder Shares for $2.00 per share which was sold by the Sponsor to underwriters. The Company paid a cash underwriting commission of $0.125 per Unit for 900,000 additional Units and the underwriters will be entitled to a deferred commission of $0.35 per Unit, an aggregate of $2,415,000, which will be paid from the funds held in the Trust Account upon completion of the initial business combination.
Concurrent with the closing of the IPO, our Sponsor, at the option of the Company, sold to the underwriter or its designees 115,500 Founder Shares for a purchase price of $2.00 per share and an aggregate purchase price of $231,000.
We have agreed to sell to the underwriters, for $100.00, an option to purchase up to a total of 58,000 Units exercisable, in whole or in part, at $11.50 per unit (or 115% of the Market Value), commencing on the consummation of our initial business combination, and expires five years from the effective date of the IPO. The option and the 58,000 Units, as well as the 58,000 ordinary shares, the warrants to purchase 58,000 ordinary shares that may be issued upon exercise of the option and the rights to purchase 5,800 ordinary shares upon the completion of an initial business combination, have been deemed compensation by FINRA and are therefore subject to a lock-up for a period of 180 days immediately following the effective date of the registration statement or the commencement of sales in the IPO pursuant to Rule 5110(e)(1) of FINRA’s Rules, during which time the option may not be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated, or be subject of any hedging, short sale, derivative or put or call transaction that would result in the economic disposition of the securities, except as permitted under FINRA Rule 5110(e)(2).
Advisory Services Agreement
The Company engaged TenX Global Capital LP (“TenX”), a related party to the Company, as an advisor in connection with the Initial Public Offering and business combination, to assist in hiring consultants and other services providers in connection with our Initial Public Offering and the business combination, assist in the preparation of unaudited condensed financial statements and other relevant services to commence trading including filing the necessary documents as part of the transaction. Further, TenX will assist in preparing the Company for investor presentations, conferences for due diligence, deal structuring and term negotiations.
During the period from September 15, 2021 (inception) through December 31, 2023, a cash fee of $200,000 has been incurred as deferred offering costs for these services of which $160,000 has been paid by the Sponsor through December 31, 2022 and additional $40,000 was paid subsequently through December 31, 2023.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements; Commitments and Contractual Obligations
As of June 30, 2024, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as defined in Item 303(a)(4)(ii) of Regulation S-K and did not have any commitments or contractual obligations.
Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of unaudited condensed 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 unaudited condensed financial statements, and income and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. We have identified below critical accounting policies.
| 6 |
Ordinary Shares Subject to Possible Redemption
We account for our ordinary shares subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” Ordinary shares subject to mandatory redemption is classified as a liability instrument and is measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable ordinary shares (including ordinary shares that feature redemption rights that is 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, ordinary shares are classified as shareholders’ equity. The Company’s ordinary shares features certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, ordinary shares subject to possible redemption is presented at redemption of $11.09 per share (plus any income earned from Trust Account) as temporary equity, outside of the shareholders’ equity section of the Company’s balance sheets. The Company recognizes changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and adjusts the carrying value of redeemable ordinary shares to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Increases or decreases in the carrying amount of redeemable ordinary shares are affected by charges against additional paid in capital or accumulated deficit if additional paid in capital equals to zero.
Net Income (Loss) per Share
The Company complies with accounting and disclosure requirements of FASB ASC 260, Earnings Per Share. The statements of operations include a presentation of income (loss) per redeemable share and income (loss) per non-redeemable share following the two-class method of income (loss) per share. In order to determine the net income (loss) attributable to both the redeemable shares and non-redeemable shares, the Company first considered the undistributed income (loss) allocable to both the redeemable shares and non-redeemable shares and the undistributed income (loss) is calculated using the total net income (loss) less any dividends paid. The Company then allocated the undistributed income (loss) ratably based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding between the redeemable and non-redeemable shares. Any remeasurement of the accretion to redemption value of the ordinary shares subject to possible redemption was considered to be dividends paid to the public shareholders.
Deferred Offering Costs
Deferred offering costs consist of underwriting, legal, accounting, and other expenses incurred through the balance sheet date that were directly related to our IPO and that were charged to shareholders’ equity upon the completion of our IPO on January 4, 2023. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, there were no deferred offering costs.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and are not required to provide the information otherwise required under this item.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As required by Rule 13a-15(b) and Rule 15d-15(b) under the Exchange Act, our management, including our President and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated, as of December 31, 2023, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e). Based on that evaluation, our President and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of June 30, 2024, due to the material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting related to the Company’s lack of qualified SEC reporting professional. As a result, we performed additional analysis as deemed necessary to ensure that our financial statements were prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Accordingly, management believes that the financial statements included in this Form 10-K present fairly in all material respects our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the period presented. Management intends to continue implement remediation steps to improve our disclosure controls and procedures and our internal control over financial reporting. Specifically, we intend to expand and improve our review process for complex securities and related accounting standards. We have improved this process by enhancing access to accounting literature, identification of third-party professionals with whom to consult regarding complex accounting applications and consideration of additional staff with the requisite experience and training to supplement existing accounting professionals.
We believe, however, that a controls system, no matter how well designed and operated, cannot provide absolute assurance that the objectives of the controls systems are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud or error, if any, within a company have been detected.
Management’s Report on Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q does not include a report of management’s assessment regarding internal control over financial reporting or an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm due to a transition period established by rules of the SEC for newly public companies.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

| Description of Organization, Business Operations and Going Concern | Note 1 - Description of Organization, Business Operations and Going Concern
AlphaTime Acquisition Corp (the “Company”) was incorporated in Cayman Islands on September 15, 2021. The Company was formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses (the “Business Combination”). The Company is not limited to a particular industry or sector for purposes of consummating a Business Combination. The Company is an early stage and emerging growth company and, as such, the Company is subject to all of the risks associated with early stage and emerging growth companies.
As on June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had not commenced any operations. All activities for the period from September 15, 2021 (inception) through June 30, 2024, relates to the Company’s organizational activities, those necessary to prepare for and complete the initial public offering (“IPO”), identifying a target company for a business combination and activities in connection with the business combination. The Company will not generate any operating revenues until the completion of its initial Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company will generate non-operating income in the form of interest income from the proceeds derived from the IPO. The Company has selected December 31 as its fiscal year end.
The Company’s sponsor is Alphamade Holding LP, a Delaware limited partnership (the “Sponsor”). The registration statement for the Company’s IPO was declared effective on December 30, 2022 (the “Effective Date”). On January 4, 2023, the Company consummated the IPO of units (the “Units”). Each Unit consists of one ordinary share of the Company, par value $ per share (the “Ordinary Shares”), one redeemable warrant (the “Warrants”) and one right (the “Rights”), with each Right entitling the holder thereof to receive one-tenth of one Ordinary Share upon the completion of an initial Business Combination, subject to adjustment. The Units were sold at a price of $per Unit, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $60,000,000. On January 6, 2023, Chardan Capital Markets, LLC exercised its over-allotment option (the “Overallotment”), which subsequently closed on January 9, 2023, to purchase an additional Units at a public offering price of $ per Unit, generating additional gross proceeds to the Company of $9,000,000.
Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, the Company completed the sale of private units to the Sponsor (the “Private Units”) at a purchase price of $ per Private Unit, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $3,705,000. Simultaneously with the closing of the Overallotment, the Company completed the private sale of an additional Private Units, at a purchase price of $ per Private Unit, generating additional gross proceeds to the Company of $387,000. Transaction costs amounted to $4,892,699 consisting of $1,612,500 of underwriting discount, $2,415,000 of deferred underwriting commission and $865,199 of other offering costs.
Following the closing of the IPO and the sale of over-allotment units, an aggregate of $70,242,000 of the proceeds from the IPO and the sale of the Private Units (including the Overallotment of the Units and Private Units) were placed in a U.S.-based Trust Account at U.S. Bank maintained by Equiniti Trust Company, acting as trustee and will be invested only in U.S. government securities, within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act, having a maturity of 180 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. Except with respect to income earned on the funds held in the Trust Account that may be released to the Company to pay income tax obligations, the proceeds from the IPO will not be released from the Trust Account until the earlier of the completion of a Business Combination or the Company’s liquidation.
The Company’s management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the IPO and the sale of Private Units, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be applied generally toward consummating a Business Combination. The stock exchange listing rules require that the Business Combination must be with one or more operating businesses or assets with a fair market value equal to at least 90% of the assets held in the Trust Account (as defined below) (excluding the amount of deferred underwriting commissions and taxes payable on the income earned on the Trust Account). The Company will only complete a Business Combination if the post-Business Combination company owns or acquires 50% or more of the issued and outstanding voting securities of the target or otherwise acquires a controlling interest in the target business sufficient for it not to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”). There is no assurance that the Company will be able to complete a Business Combination successfully.
The Company will provide the holders of the outstanding Public Shares (the “Public Shareholders”) with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares either (i) in connection with a shareholder meeting called to approve the Business Combination or (ii) by means of a tender offer in connection with the Business Combination. 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. The Public Shareholders will be entitled to redeem their Public Shares for a pro rata portion of the amount then in the Trust Account (initially anticipated to be $ per Public Share, plus any pro rata interest then in the Trust Account, net of taxes payable). The Public Shares subject to redemption will be recorded at a redemption value and classified as temporary equity upon the completion of the IPO in accordance with the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.”
The Company will not redeem Public Shares in an amount that would cause its net tangible assets to be less than $5,000,001 (so that it does not then become subject to The Securities and Exchange Commission’s “penny stock” rules) or any greater net tangible asset or cash requirement that may be contained in the agreement relating to the Business Combination. If the Company seeks shareholder approval of the Business Combination, the Company will proceed with a Business Combination only if the Company receives an ordinary resolution under Cayman Islands law approving a Business Combination, which requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the shareholders who attend and vote at a general meeting of the Company, or such other vote as required by law or stock exchange rule. If a shareholder vote is not required and the Company does not decide to hold a shareholder vote for business or other legal reasons, the Company will, pursuant to its Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, conduct the redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), and file tender offer documents containing substantially the same information as would be included in a proxy statement with the SEC prior to completing a Business Combination. If the Company seeks shareholder approval in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor has agreed to vote its Founder Shares (as defined in Note 5) and any Public Shares purchased during or after the IPO in favor of approving a Business Combination. Additionally, each Public Shareholder may elect to redeem their Public Shares, without voting, and if they do vote, irrespective of whether they vote for or against an initial business combination.
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 15% of the Public Shares without the Company’s prior written consent.
The Sponsor has agreed (a) to waive its redemption rights with respect to any Founder Shares and Public Shares held by it in connection with the completion of a Business Combination and (b) not to propose an amendment to the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association (i) to modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to allow redemption in connection with the Company’s initial business combination or to redeem 100% of the Public Shares if the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period (as defined below) or (ii) with respect to any other provision relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-initial business combination activity, unless the Company provides the Public Shareholders with the opportunity to redeem their Public Shares upon approval of any such amendment 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 Trust account and not previously released to pay taxes, divided by the number of then issued and outstanding Public Shares.
The Company earlier had until 9 months (or up to 18 months, if we extend the time to complete a business combination) from January 4, 2023, the closing of the Initial Public Offering to consummate a Business Combination (the “Combination Period”).
On September 27, 2023, the Company extended the time to complete its initial business combination from October 4, 2023 to January 4, 2024 by depositing an aggregate of $690,000 into the Trust Account. In connection with this extension, on September 26, 2023, the Company also entered into a non-interest bearing promissory note with the Sponsor for $690,000, is payable on the earlier of January 4, 2025 or promptly after the completion of an initial business combination.
At an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders held on December 28, 2023 (the “Meeting”), the Company adopted the Company’s Third Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association (the “Third Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association”) reflecting the extension of the date by which the Company must consummate a business combination from January 4, 2024 (the “Termination Date”) up to ten (10) times, the first extension comprised of three months, and the subsequent nine (9) extensions comprised of one month each (each an “Extension”) up to January 4, 2025 (i.e., for a period of time ending up to 24 months after the consummation of its Initial Public Offering for a total of twelve (12) months after the Termination Date (assuming a business combination has not occurred). The Company also entered into an amendment (the “Trust Agreement Amendment”) to the Investment Management Trust Agreement, dated as of December 30, 2022, with Equiniti Trust Company, LLC (as amended, the “Trust Agreement”). Pursuant to the Trust Agreement Amendment, the Company has extended the date by which it has to complete a business combination from the Termination Date up to ten (10) times, with the first extension comprised of three months, and the subsequent nine (9) extensions comprised of one month each from the Termination Date, or extended date, as applicable, to January 4, 2025 by providing five days’ advance notice to the trustee prior to the applicable Termination Date, or extended date, and depositing into the Trust Account $55,000 for each monthly extension (the “Extension Payment”) until January 4, 2025 (assuming a business combination has not occurred) in exchange for a non-interest bearing, unsecured promissory note payable upon the consummation of a business combination.
On January 4, 2024, the Company deposited $165,000 into the Trust Account to extend the deadline to complete the business combination from January 4, 2024 to April 4, 2024. In connection with this extension, on December 28, 2023, the Company entered into a non-interest bearing promissory note with the Sponsor for $660,000, that is payable on the earlier of January 4, 2025 or promptly after the completion of an initial business combination. Further, the Company has deposited $165,000 in aggregate into the Trust Account from April to June to extend the deadline to complete the business combination from April 4, 2024 to July 4, 2024. Subsequent to June 30, 2024, the company has deposited $110,000 to extend the timeline for completion of business combination from July 4, 2024 to September 4, 2024.
However, if the Company has not completed a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the Company will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem 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 and not previously released to us to pay our taxes, if any (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then issued and outstanding Public Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish the rights of the Public Shareholders as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidating distributions, if any), and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the Company’s remaining Public Shareholders and its Board of Directors, liquidate and dissolve, subject in each case to the Company’s obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. The Sponsor has agreed to waive its rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to the Founder Shares it will receive if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period. However, if the Sponsor or any of its respective affiliates acquire Public Shares, such Public Shares will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period. The underwriters have agreed to waive their rights to their deferred underwriting commission (see Note 6) held in the Trust Account in the event the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, and in such event, such amounts will be included with the other funds held in the Trust Account that will be available to fund the redemption of the Public Shares. In the event of such distribution, it is possible that the per share value of the assets remaining available for distribution will be less than the IPO price per Unit ($).
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) $ per Public Share and (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 $ per Public Share, due to reductions in the value of trust assets, in each case net of the interest that may be withdrawn to pay taxes. 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 underwriters of the IPO 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
As of June 30, 2024, the Company had a cash balance of $1,473 and a working capital deficit of $2,446,171. The Company expects that it will need additional capital to satisfy its liquidity needs beyond the net proceeds from the consummation of the IPO and the proceeds held outside of the Trust Account for paying existing accounts payable, identifying and evaluating prospective 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 addition, in order to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Company’s Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor or certain of the Company’s officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan funds to the Company as may be required but there is no guarantee that the Company will receive such funds. As on June 30, 2024, there was an amount of $1,042,500 outstanding as loan against a promissory note issued to the Sponsor for extension of the period of business combination from October 4, 2023 to July 4, 2024. Subsequently to June 30, 2024, the company has deposited $110,000 to extend the timeline for completion of business combination from July 4, 2024 to September 4, 2024.
Pursuant to the extension amendment approved by the shareholders by special resolution at the meeting on December 28, 2023, the Company has adopted the Company’s Third Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, reflecting the extension of the date by which the Company must consummate a business combination from January 4, 2024, (the “Termination Date”) up to ten (10) times, with the first extension comprised of three months, and the subsequent nine (9) extensions comprised of one month each up to January 4, 2025, by providing five days’ advance notice to the trustee prior to the applicable Termination Date, or extended date, and depositing into the trust account (the “Trust Account”) $55,000 for each monthly extension (the “Extension Payment”) until January 4, 2025 (i.e., for a period of time ending up to 24 months after the consummation of its initial public offering) in exchange for a non-interest bearing, unsecured promissory note payable upon the consummation of a business combination.
In connection with the shareholders’ vote at the meeting on December 28, 2023, ordinary shares of the Company exercised their right to redeem such shares (the “Redemption”) for a pro rata portion of the funds held in the Trust Account. As a result, approximately $23,302,146 (approximately $ per share) has been removed from the Trust Account to pay such holders and approximately $51,712,221 remained in the Trust Account. Following the redemptions, the Company has ordinary shares outstanding.
On January 5, 2024, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) by and among the Company, HCYC Holding Company (“PubCo”), ATMC Merger Sub 1 Limited (“Merger Sub 1”), ATMC Merger Sub 2 Limited (“Merger Sub 2”), and HCYC Merger Sub Limited (“Merger Sub 3”, and together with PubCo, Merger Sub 1 and Merger Sub 2, the “Acquisition Entities”), and HCYC Group Company Limited, Cayman Islands exempted company (“HCYC”). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the parties thereto will enter into a business combination transaction by which (i) the Company will merge with and into Merger Sub 1, with the Company surviving such merger; (ii) the Company will merge with and into Merger Sub 2, with Merger Sub 2 surviving such merger; and (iii) HCYC will merge with and into Merger Sub 3, with HCYC surviving such merger (collectively, the “Mergers”). The Merger Agreement and the Mergers were unanimously approved by the boards of directors of each of the Company and HCYC. The Business Combination is expected to be consummated after obtaining the required approval by the shareholders of the Company and HCYC and the satisfaction of certain other customary closing conditions.
Accordingly, the accompanying condensed financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP, which contemplates continuation of the Company as a going concern and the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The condensed financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Further, we have incurred and expect to continue to incur significant costs in pursuit of our financing and acquisition plans. Management plans to address this uncertainty during the period leading up to the Initial Business Combination. The Company cannot provide any assurance that its plans to raise capital or to consummate an Initial Business Combination will be successful. Based on the foregoing, management believes that the Company lacks the financial resources it needs to sustain operations for a reasonable period of time. Moreover, management’s plans to consummate the initial business combination may not be successful. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
Risks and Uncertainties
Management is currently evaluating the impact of the risk of bank failures and has concluded that while it is reasonably possible that the bank failures could have a negative effect on the Company’s financial position, results of its operations, and/or search for a target company, the specific impact is not readily determinable as of the date of these unaudited condensed financial statements. The unaudited condensed financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Further, the Company doesn’t have any bank accounts which are associated with failure risk but will keep monitoring any such effects that might impact the company’s financial position.
On August 16, 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (the “IR Act”) was signed into federal law. The IR Act provides for, among other things, a new U.S. federal 1% excise tax on certain repurchases of stock by publicly traded U.S. domestic corporations and certain U.S. domestic subsidiaries of publicly traded foreign corporations occurring on or after January 1, 2023. The excise tax is imposed on the repurchasing corporation itself, not its shareholders from which shares are repurchased. The amount of the excise tax is generally 1% of the fair market value of the shares repurchased at the time of the repurchase. However, for purposes of calculating the excise tax, repurchasing corporations are permitted to net the fair market value of certain new stock issuances against the fair market value of stock repurchases during the same taxable year. In addition, certain exceptions apply to the excise tax. The U.S. Department of the Treasury (the “Treasury”) has been given authority to provide regulations and other guidance to carry out and prevent the abuse or avoidance of the excise tax.

Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements are presented in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC.
The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements as of June 30, 2024, have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP for interim financial information and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal accruals) considered for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2024, or any future period.
Emerging Growth Company Status
The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, as amended (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 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 an election to opt out is irrevocable. We have 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, we, 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 our 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.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statement in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the Company’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited condensed financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. 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 June 30, 2024, the Company’s investment held in Trust Account invested in money market fund, which are considered cash equivalents and included in the investment held in Trust Account in the accompanying balance sheets. The Company had no cash equivalents as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.
Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist of a cash account in a financial institution which, at times may exceed the Federal depository insurance coverage of $250,000. On June 30, 2024, the Company did not experience losses on this account and management believes the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such account.
Offering Costs
The offering costs were $4,892,699 consisting principally of underwriting, legal, accounting and other expenses incurred through the balance sheet date that are related to the IPO and are charged to shareholders’ equity upon the completion of the IPO. The Company complies with the requirements of the ASC 340-10-S99-1 and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) Topic 5A - “Expenses of Offering”. The Company allocates offering costs between the Public Shares (as defined below in Note 3), Public Warrants (as defined below in Note 3) and Public Rights (as defined below in Note 3) based on the relative fair values of the Public Shares, Public Warrants and Public Rights. Accordingly, $ was allocated to Public Shares and charged to temporary equity, and $122,317 was allocated to Public Warrants and Public Rights and charged to shareholders’ equity.
Investment Held in Trust Account
The Company’s portfolio of investment held in the Trust Account is mainly comprised of investments in U.S. government securities and generally have a readily determinable fair value, or a combination thereof. Gains and losses resulting from the change in fair value of these securities and income earned from the investments held in the Trust Account is included in income earned on Trust Account in the accompanying statements of operations. The estimated fair values of investment held in the Trust Account are determined using available market information.
Income earned on these investments will be fully reinvested into the investment held in Trust Account and therefore considered as an adjustment to reconcile net income (loss) to net cash used in operating activities in the statements of cash flows. Such income reinvested will be used to redeem all or a portion of the ordinary shares upon the completion of business combination.
The Company complies with the accounting and disclosure requirements of FASB ASC 260, Earnings Per Share. In order to determine the net income (loss) attributable to both the redeemable shares and non-redeemable shares, the Company first considered the undistributed income (loss) allocable to both the redeemable shares and non-redeemable shares and the undistributed income (loss) is calculated using the total net income (loss) less any dividends paid. The Company then allocated the undistributed income (loss) ratably based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding between the redeemable and non-redeemable shares. Any remeasurement of the accretion to redemption value of the ordinary shares subject to possible redemption was considered to be dividends paid to the public shareholders. As of June 30, 2024, the Company did not have any dilutive securities and other contracts that could, potentially, be exercised or converted into ordinary shares and then share in the earnings of the Company. As a result, diluted income/(loss) per share is the same as basic income/(loss) per share for the period presented.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurement,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the accompanying balance sheets, primarily due to their short-term nature.
Warrants
The Company accounts for warrants as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the warrant’s specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) ASC 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity” (“ASC 480”) and ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”). The assessment considers whether the warrants are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, whether they meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and whether the warrants meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the warrants are indexed to the Company’s own ordinary shares and whether the warrant holders could potentially require “net cash settlement” in a circumstance outside of the Company’s control, among other conditions for equity classification. This assessment, which requires the use of professional judgment, is conducted at the time of warrant issuance and as of each subsequent quarterly period end date while the warrants are outstanding.
For issued or modified warrants that meet all of the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded as a component of equity at the time of issuance. For issued or modified warrants that do not meet all the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded as liabilities at their initial fair value on the date of issuance, and each balance sheet date thereafter. As the Company’s warrants meet all the criteria for equity classification, both public and private warrants are classified in shareholders’ equity/(deficit).
The Company accounts for its ordinary shares subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” Ordinary shares subject to mandatory redemption (if any) is classified as a liability instrument and is measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable ordinary shares (including ordinary shares 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, ordinary shares are classified as shareholders’ equity. The Company’s ordinary shares feature certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to the occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, as of June 30, 2024, ordinary shares subject to possible redemption are presented at redemption value of $ per share (plus any income earned on Trust Account) as temporary equity, outside of the shareholders’ equity section of the Company’s balance sheets. The Company recognizes changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and adjusts the carrying value of redeemable ordinary shares to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Increases or decreases in the carrying amount of redeemable ordinary shares are affected by charges against additional paid in capital and accumulated deficit. The Company allocates gross proceeds between the Public Shares, Public Warrants and Public Rights based on the relative fair values of the Public Shares, Public Warrants and Public Rights.
Income Taxes
The Company follows the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes under ASC 740, “Income Taxes.” Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statements carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that is included in the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.
ASC 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 and no amounts accrued for interest and penalties as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals, or material deviation from its position.
Income earned from U.S. debt obligations held by the Trust Account is intended to qualify for the portfolio income exemption or otherwise be exempt from U.S. withholding taxes. Furthermore, shareholders of the Company’s shares may be subject to tax in their respective jurisdictions based on applicable law, for instance, United States persons may be subject to tax on amounts deemed received depending on whether the Company is a passive foreign investment company and whether U.S. persons have made any applicable tax elections permitted under applicable law. The provision for income taxes was deemed to be immaterial.
There is currently no taxation imposed on income by the Government of the Cayman Islands. In accordance with Cayman income tax regulations, income taxes are not levied on the Company. Consequently, income taxes are not reflected in the Company’s unaudited condensed financial statements.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
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 unaudited condensed financial statements.

| Fair Value Measurements | Note 8 - Fair Value Measurements
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: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. An active market for an asset or liability is a market in which transactions for the asset or liability occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.
Level 2: Observable inputs other than Level 1 inputs. Examples of Level 2 inputs include quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities and quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.
Level 3: Unobservable inputs based on our assessment of the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. The following table presents information about the Company’s assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 and indicate the fair value hierarchy of the valuation inputs the Company utilized to determine such fair value.
The investment held in the Trust Account was previously invested in a U.S. Treasury Bill, classified as Level 2 security and matured on July 13, 2023. The proceeds from the matured U.S. Treasury Bill were then invested in a U.S. Treasury Money Market Fund, classified as Level 1 security.

| Emerging Growth Company Status | Emerging Growth Company Status
The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, as amended (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 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 an election to opt out is irrevocable. We have 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, we, 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 our 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.

| Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statement in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the Company’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited condensed financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.

| Concentration of Credit Risk | Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist of a cash account in a financial institution which, at times may exceed the Federal depository insurance coverage of $250,000. On June 30, 2024, the Company did not experience losses on this account and management believes the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such account.

| Offering Costs | Offering Costs
The offering costs were $4,892,699 consisting principally of underwriting, legal, accounting and other expenses incurred through the balance sheet date that are related to the IPO and are charged to shareholders’ equity upon the completion of the IPO. The Company complies with the requirements of the ASC 340-10-S99-1 and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) Topic 5A - “Expenses of Offering”. The Company allocates offering costs between the Public Shares (as defined below in Note 3), Public Warrants (as defined below in Note 3) and Public Rights (as defined below in Note 3) based on the relative fair values of the Public Shares, Public Warrants and Public Rights. Accordingly, $ was allocated to Public Shares and charged to temporary equity, and $122,317 was allocated to Public Warrants and Public Rights and charged to shareholders’ equity.

| Investment Held in Trust Account | Investment Held in Trust Account
The Company’s portfolio of investment held in the Trust Account is mainly comprised of investments in U.S. government securities and generally have a readily determinable fair value, or a combination thereof. Gains and losses resulting from the change in fair value of these securities and income earned from the investments held in the Trust Account is included in income earned on Trust Account in the accompanying statements of operations. The estimated fair values of investment held in the Trust Account are determined using available market information.
Income earned on these investments will be fully reinvested into the investment held in Trust Account and therefore considered as an adjustment to reconcile net income (loss) to net cash used in operating activities in the statements of cash flows. Such income reinvested will be used to redeem all or a portion of the ordinary shares upon the completion of business combination.

| Net Income/(Loss) Per Share |
The Company complies with the accounting and disclosure requirements of FASB ASC 260, Earnings Per Share. In order to determine the net income (loss) attributable to both the redeemable shares and non-redeemable shares, the Company first considered the undistributed income (loss) allocable to both the redeemable shares and non-redeemable shares and the undistributed income (loss) is calculated using the total net income (loss) less any dividends paid. The Company then allocated the undistributed income (loss) ratably based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding between the redeemable and non-redeemable shares. Any remeasurement of the accretion to redemption value of the ordinary shares subject to possible redemption was considered to be dividends paid to the public shareholders. As of June 30, 2024, the Company did not have any dilutive securities and other contracts that could, potentially, be exercised or converted into ordinary shares and then share in the earnings of the Company. As a result, diluted income/(loss) per share is the same as basic income/(loss) per share for the period presented.

| Fair Value of Financial Instruments | Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurement,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the accompanying balance sheets, primarily due to their short-term nature.

| Warrants | Warrants
The Company accounts for warrants as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the warrant’s specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) ASC 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity” (“ASC 480”) and ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”). The assessment considers whether the warrants are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, whether they meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and whether the warrants meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the warrants are indexed to the Company’s own ordinary shares and whether the warrant holders could potentially require “net cash settlement” in a circumstance outside of the Company’s control, among other conditions for equity classification. This assessment, which requires the use of professional judgment, is conducted at the time of warrant issuance and as of each subsequent quarterly period end date while the warrants are outstanding.
For issued or modified warrants that meet all of the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded as a component of equity at the time of issuance. For issued or modified warrants that do not meet all the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded as liabilities at their initial fair value on the date of issuance, and each balance sheet date thereafter. As the Company’s warrants meet all the criteria for equity classification, both public and private warrants are classified in shareholders’ equity/(deficit).

| Ordinary Shares Subject to Possible Redemption |
The Company accounts for its ordinary shares subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” Ordinary shares subject to mandatory redemption (if any) is classified as a liability instrument and is measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable ordinary shares (including ordinary shares 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, ordinary shares are classified as shareholders’ equity. The Company’s ordinary shares feature certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to the occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, as of June 30, 2024, ordinary shares subject to possible redemption are presented at redemption value of $ per share (plus any income earned on Trust Account) as temporary equity, outside of the shareholders’ equity section of the Company’s balance sheets. The Company recognizes changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and adjusts the carrying value of redeemable ordinary shares to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Increases or decreases in the carrying amount of redeemable ordinary shares are affected by charges against additional paid in capital and accumulated deficit. The Company allocates gross proceeds between the Public Shares, Public Warrants and Public Rights based on the relative fair values of the Public Shares, Public Warrants and Public Rights.

| Income Taxes | Income Taxes
The Company follows the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes under ASC 740, “Income Taxes.” Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statements carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that is included in the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.
ASC 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 and no amounts accrued for interest and penalties as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals, or material deviation from its position.
Income earned from U.S. debt obligations held by the Trust Account is intended to qualify for the portfolio income exemption or otherwise be exempt from U.S. withholding taxes. Furthermore, shareholders of the Company’s shares may be subject to tax in their respective jurisdictions based on applicable law, for instance, United States persons may be subject to tax on amounts deemed received depending on whether the Company is a passive foreign investment company and whether U.S. persons have made any applicable tax elections permitted under applicable law. The provision for income taxes was deemed to be immaterial.
There is currently no taxation imposed on income by the Government of the Cayman Islands. In accordance with Cayman income tax regulations, income taxes are not levied on the Company. Consequently, income taxes are not reflected in the Company’s unaudited condensed financial statements.

| Option description | The option and the 58,000 Units, as well as the 58,000 ordinary shares, the warrants to purchase 58,000 ordinary shares that may be issued upon exercise of the option and the rights to purchase 5,800 ordinary shares upon the completion of an initial business combination, have been deemed compensation by FINRA and are therefore subject to a lock-up for a period of 180 days immediately following the commencement of sales in our IPO pursuant to Rule 5110(e)(1) of FINRA’s Rules, during which time the option may not be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated, or be subject of any hedging, short sale, derivative or put or call transaction that would result in the economic disposition of the securities, except as permitted under FINRA Rule 5110(e)(2). The Company determined fair value of the Unit Purchase Option issued to the underwriters and recorded an amount to additional paid-in capital, net of purchased cost, in the balance sheets on the day of the IPO which is the grant date. | ||||
