ARYA SCIENCES ACQUISITION CORP IV
Note
1 - Description of Organization and Business Operations
ARYA Sciences
Acquisition Corp IV (the “Company”) was incorporated as a Cayman Islands exempted company on August 24, 2020. The Company was formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase,
reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses (the “Business Combination”). The Company is an emerging growth company and, as such, the Company is subject to all of the risks associated with emerging
growth companies.
All activity for the
period from August 24, 2020 (inception) through March 31, 2022 was related to the Company’s formation and initial public offering (the “Initial Public Offering”) described below, and since the Initial Public Offering, the search
for a prospective initial Business Combination. The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of its initial Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company generates non-operating income in
the form of income earned on investments held in the Trust Account (as defined below) from the proceeds derived from the Initial Public Offering.
The Company’s sponsor is
ARYA Sciences Holdings IV, a Cayman Islands exempted limited company (the “Sponsor”). The registration statement for the Company’s Initial Public Offering was declared effective on February 25, 2021. On March 2, 2021, the
Company consummated its Initial Public Offering of 14,950,000 Class A ordinary shares (the “Public Shares”),
including the 1,950,000 Public Shares as a result of the underwriters’ full exercise of their over-allotment option,
at an offering price of $10.00 per Public Share, generating gross proceeds of $149.5 million, and incurring offering costs of approximately $8.8 million, inclusive of approximately $5.2 million in
deferred underwriting commissions (see Note 5).
Simultaneously with the
closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the private placement (“Private Placement”) of 499,000
Class A ordinary shares (the “Private Placement Shares”), at a price of $10.00 per Private Placement Share to the
Sponsor, generating gross proceeds of approximately $5.0 million (see Note 4).
Upon the closing of the
Initial Public Offering and the Private Placement, $149.5 million ($10.00 per Public Share) of the net proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and certain of the proceeds of the Private Placement were placed in a trust
account (the “Trust Account”), located in the United States, with Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company acting as trustee, and are invested only in United States “government securities” within the meaning of Section
2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”) having a maturity of 185 days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 promulgated under the Investment
Company Act which invest only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations, until the earlier of (i) the completion of a Business Combination and (ii) the distribution of the Trust Account as described below.
The Company’s management
has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and the sale of Private Placement Shares, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be applied
generally toward consummating a Business Combination. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to complete a Business Combination successfully. The Company must complete one or more initial Business Combinations having an aggregate fair market value of at least 80% of the net assets held in the Trust Account (as defined below) (excluding the amount of deferred underwriting commissions and taxes payable on the interest earned on
the Trust Account) at the time of the signing of the agreement to enter into the initial Business Combination. However, the Company will only complete a Business Combination if the post-transaction company owns or acquires 50% or more of the outstanding voting securities of the target or otherwise acquires a controlling interest in the target sufficient
for it not to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act.
The Company will provide
the holders (the “Public Shareholders”) of Public Shares, with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares upon the completion of a Business Combination either (i) in connection with a shareholder meeting
called to approve the Business Combination or (ii) by means of a tender offer. The decision as to whether the Company will seek shareholder approval of a Business Combination or conduct a tender offer will be made by the
Company, solely in its discretion. The Public Shareholders will be entitled to redeem their Public Shares for a pro rata portion of the amount then in the Trust Account (initially anticipated to be $10.00 per Public Share, plus any pro rata interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the
Company to pay income taxes). The per-share amount to be distributed to Public Shareholders who redeem their Public Shares will not be reduced by the deferred underwriting commissions the Company will pay to the underwriters (as
discussed in Note 5).

Table of Contents
ARYA SCIENCES ACQUISITION CORP IV
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
These Public Shares are
classified as temporary equity upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480 “Distinguishing
Liabilities from Equity” (“ASC 480”). In such case, the Company will proceed with a Business Combination if the Company has net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001 upon such consummation of a Business Combination and, only if a majority of the ordinary shares, represented in person or by proxy and entitled to vote thereon,
voted at a shareholder meeting are voted in favor of the Business Combination. If a shareholder vote is not required by law and the Company does not decide to hold a shareholder vote for business or other reasons, the Company
will, pursuant to the amended and restated memorandum and articles of association which the Company will adopt upon the consummation of the Initial Public Offering (the “Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of
Association”), conduct the redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and file tender offer documents with the SEC prior to completing a Business Combination. If,
however, shareholder approval of the transactions is required by law, or the Company decides to obtain shareholder approval for business or other reasons, the Company will offer to redeem shares in conjunction with a proxy
solicitation pursuant to the proxy rules and not pursuant to the tender offer rules. Additionally, each Public Shareholder may elect to redeem their Public Shares irrespective of whether they vote for or against the proposed
transaction or vote at all. If the Company seeks shareholder approval in connection with a Business Combination, the initial shareholders (as defined below) agreed to vote their Founder Shares (as defined below in Note 4) and
any Public Shares purchased during or after the Initial Public Offering in favor of a Business Combination. Subsequent to the consummation of the Initial Public Offering, the Company will adopt an insider trading policy which
will require insiders to: (i) refrain from purchasing shares during certain blackout periods and when they are in possession of any material non-public information and (ii) to clear all trades with the Company’s legal counsel
prior to execution. In addition, the initial shareholders agreed to waive their redemption rights with respect to their Founder Shares, Private Placement Shares and Public Shares in connection with the completion of a Business
Combination.
Notwithstanding the
foregoing, if the Company seeks shareholder approval of its Business Combination and does not conduct redemptions in connection with its Business Combination pursuant to the tender offer rules, the Amended and Restated
Memorandum and Articles of Association provide that 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 Class A ordinary shares sold in the Initial Public Offering, without the prior consent of the Company.
The Company’s Sponsor,
officers and directors (the “initial shareholders”) agreed not to propose an amendment to the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association (a) that would modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation
to provide holders of its Public Shares the right to have their shares redeemed in connection with a Business Combination or to redeem 100%
of the Company’s Public Shares if the Company does not complete its Business Combination within 24 months from the
closing of the Initial Public Offering, or March 2, 2023 (the “Combination Period”), or (b) with respect to any other provision relating to the rights of Public Shareholders, unless the Company provides the Public Shareholders
with the opportunity to redeem their Class A ordinary shares in conjunction with any such amendment.
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 business days thereafter, redeem the Public Shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount
then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay its income taxes, if any (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of the then-outstanding Public Shares, which redemption
will completely extinguish Public Shareholders’ rights as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any); and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption,
subject to the approval of the Company’s remaining shareholders and its board of directors, liquidate and dissolve, subject in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) to the Company’s obligations under Cayman Islands law to
provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law.

ARYA SCIENCES ACQUISITION CORP IV
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The initial shareholders
agreed to waive their liquidation rights with respect to the Founder Shares and Private Placement Shares held by them if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period. However, if the initial
shareholders acquire Public Shares in or after the Initial Public Offering, they will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to such Public Shares if the Company fails to complete a Business
Combination within the Combination Period. The underwriters agreed to waive their rights to their deferred underwriting commission (see Note 5) 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 (including Trust Account assets) will be only $10.00 per share initially held in the Trust Account. In order to protect the amounts held in the Trust Account, the Sponsor agreed to be liable to the Company if and to
the extent any claims by a third party (excluding 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 (i) $10.00
per Public Share and (ii) the actual amount per Public Share held in the Trust Account as of the date of the liquidation of the Trust Account if less than $10.00 per Public Share due to reductions in the value of the assets in the Trust Account, in each case net of the interest that may be withdrawn to pay for the Company’s
tax obligations. This liability will not apply with respect to any claims by a third party who executed a waiver of any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies held in the Trust Account or to any claims
under the Company’s indemnity of the underwriters of the Initial Public Offering against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).
Moreover, in the event that an executed waiver is deemed to be unenforceable against a third party, the Sponsor will not be responsible to the extent of any liability for such third-party claims. 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 (excluding 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. The Company has not asked the Sponsor to reserve for such indemnification obligations, nor has the Company independently verified whether the Sponsor has sufficient funds to satisfy its
indemnity obligations and the Company believes that the Sponsor’s only assets are securities of the Company. The Sponsor may not be able to satisfy those obligations. None of the Company’s officers or directors will indemnify
the Company for claims by third parties including, without limitation, claims by vendors and prospective target businesses.

Going Concern
As of March 31, 2022,
the Company had approximately $379,000 in its operating bank account and negative working capital of approximately $5.4 million.
The Company’s liquidity
needs to date have been satisfied through a contribution of $25,000 from Sponsor to cover for certain expenses in
exchange for the issuance of the Founder Shares, the loan of approximately $161,000 from the Sponsor pursuant to the
Note (as defined in Note 4), and the proceeds from the consummation of the Private Placement not held in the Trust Account. The Company fully repaid the Note upon closing of the Initial Public Offering. In addition, in order to
finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor, or certain of the Company’s officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, provide the Company Working
Capital Loans (as defined in Note 4). As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, there were no amounts
outstanding under any Working Capital Loan.
In
connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 205-40, “Basis of Presentation – Going Concern,” management has determined that the working capital deficit raises
substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern until the earlier of the consummation of the Business Combination or the date the Company is required to liquidate, March 2, 2023. The financial
statements do not include any adjustment that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with the FASB ASC Topic 205-40, “Basis
of Presentation – Going Concern,” the Company has determined that the working capital deficit and mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern
until the earlier of the consummation of the Business Combination or the date that the Company is required to liquidate. The financial statements do not include any adjustment that might be necessary if the Company is
unable to continue as a going concern. The Company intends to complete its initial business combination before the mandatory liquidation date; however, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to consummate
any business combination by March 2, 2023. No adjustments have been made to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities should the Company be required to liquidate after March 2, 2023, nor do these financial statements
include any adjustments relating to the recovery of the recorded assets or the classification of the liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Emerging
Growth Company
The Company is an “emerging growth company,”
as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”), and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are
applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the independent registered public accounting firm attestation requirements of Section 404
of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on
executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.
Further, Section 102(b)(1) of
the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement
declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that an emerging growth company can
elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such
extended transition period, which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised
standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of the Company’s financial statements with another public company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging
growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.
Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially
subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash accounts in a financial institution, which, at times, may exceed the Federal Depository Insurance Coverage limit of $250,000. As of March 31, 2022 and December
31, 2021, the Company has not experienced losses on these accounts and management believes the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such accounts.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all short-term
investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. The Company had no
cash equivalents as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021.
Investments Held in Trust Account
The Company’s portfolio of investments is comprised of U.S. government securities, within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act, with a maturity of 185 days or
less, or investments in money market funds that invest in U.S. government securities and generally have a readily determinable fair value, or a combination thereof. When the Company’s investments held in the Trust Account are
comprised of U.S. government securities, the investments are classified as trading securities. When the Company’s investments held in the Trust Account are comprised of money market funds, the investments are recognized at fair
value. Trading securities and investments in money market funds are presented on the condensed balance sheets at fair value at the end of each reporting period. Gains and losses resulting from the change in fair value of these
securities are included in unrealized gain on investments held in Trust Account in the accompanying unaudited condensed statements of operations. The estimated fair values of investments held in the Trust Account are determined
using available market information.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in
conformity with GAAP requires the Company’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets liabilities and expenses and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the
financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Financial Instruments
The fair value of the Company’s assets and
liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under the FASB ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the condensed balance sheets.

Table of Contents
ARYA SCIENCES ACQUISITION CORP IV
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Fair Value Measurements
Fair value is defined as the price that would
be received for sale of an asset or paid for transfer of a liability, in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. GAAP establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs
used in measuring fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3
measurements). These tiers include:
• |
Level 1, defined as observable inputs
such as quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical instruments in active markets;
|
• |
Level 2, defined as inputs other than
quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable such as quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not
active; and
|
• |
Level 3, defined as unobservable
inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions, such as valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value
drivers are unobservable.
|
In some circumstances, the inputs used to
measure fair value might be categorized within different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In those instances, the fair value measurement is categorized in its entirety in the fair value hierarchy based on the lowest level input
that is significant to the fair value measurement.
As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021,
the carrying values of cash, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate their fair values due to the short-term nature of the instruments. The Company’s marketable securities held in Trust Account are comprised of investments
in U.S. Treasury securities with an original maturity of 185 days or less and are recognized at fair value. The fair value of marketable securities held in Trust Account is determined using quoted prices in active markets.
Offering Costs Associated with the Initial
Public Offering
Offering costs consisted of legal,
accounting, underwriting and other costs incurred that were directly related to the Initial Public Offering and that were charged to Class A ordinary shares subject to redemption upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering. Offering costs were allocated to the separable financial instruments issued in the Initial Public Offering based on a relative fair value basis, compared to total
proceeds received. Offering costs associated with the Class A ordinary shares issued were charged against the carrying value of the Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering. The Company classifies deferred underwriting commissions as non-current liabilities as their liquidation is not reasonably expected to require the use of current assets or
require the creation of current liabilities.
Class A Ordinary Shares Subject to Possible
Redemption
The Company accounts for
its Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in ASC 480. Class A ordinary shares subject to mandatory redemption (if any) are classified as liability instruments and are measured
at fair value. Conditionally redeemable Class A ordinary shares (including Class A ordinary shares that feature 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) are classified as temporary equity. At all other times, Class A ordinary shares are classified as shareholders’ deficit. The Company’s Public 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 March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, 14,950,000 Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption are presented at redemption value as temporary equity,
outside of the shareholders’ deficit section of the Company’s condensed balance sheet.
Immediately upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the
Company recognized the accretion from initial book value to redemption amount. The change in the carrying value of Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption resulted in charges against additional paid-in capital
and accumulated deficit.

Income Taxes
FASB ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes” 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.
There were no unrecognized tax benefits as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021. The Company’s management
determined that the Cayman Islands is the Company’s only major tax jurisdiction. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. As of March 31, 2022, there were no unrecognized tax benefits and no
amounts were accrued for the payment of interest and penalties. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviation from its position.
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 condensed financial
statements. The Company’s management does not expect that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits will materially change over the next twelve months.
Net Loss per Ordinary Shares
The Company has two classes of shares:
Class A ordinary shares and Class B ordinary shares. Income and losses are shared pro rata between the two classes of shares. Net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of ordinary shares
outstanding during the periods. Accretion associated with the Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption is excluded from earnings per share as the redemption value approximates fair value.

On March 2, 2021, the
Company consummated its Initial Public Offering of 14,950,000 Public Shares, including the 1,950,000 Public Shares as a result of the underwriters’ full exercise of their over-allotment option, at an offering price of $10.00 per Public Share, generating gross proceeds of $149.5 million, and incurring offering costs of approximately $8.8
million, inclusive of approximately $5.2 million in deferred underwriting commissions.

Note 4 - Related Party Transactions
Founder
Shares
On January 4, 2021, the
Sponsor paid $25,000 to cover for certain expenses on behalf of the Company in exchange for issuance of 3,737,500 Class B ordinary shares, par value $0.0001, (the “Founder Shares”). In February 2021, the Sponsor transferred an aggregate of 90,000
Founder Shares to the Company’s independent directors. The Sponsor agreed to forfeit up to 487,500 Founder Shares to
the extent that the over-allotment option was not exercised in full by the underwriters, so that the Founder Shares would represent 20.0%
of the Company’s issued and outstanding ordinary shares (excluding the Private Placement Shares) after the Initial Public Offering. The underwriters fully exercised the over-allotment option on March 2, 2021; thus, these 487,500 Founder Shares were no longer subject to forfeiture.
The initial shareholders
agreed, subject to limited exceptions, not to transfer, assign or sell any of their Founder Shares until the earlier to occur of (A) one year after the completion of the initial Business Combination and (B) subsequent to the initial Business Combination, (x) if the closing price of the Company’s Class A ordinary shares equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for share sub-divisions, share capitalizations, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for
any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after the initial Business
Combination, or (y) the date on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, share exchange, reorganization or other similar transaction that results in all of the Public Shareholders having the right to exchange their
ordinary shares for cash, securities or other property.
Private
Placement Shares
Simultaneously with the
closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the Private Placement of 499,000 Private Placement
Shares, at a price of $10.00 per Private Placement Share to the Sponsor, generating gross proceeds of approximately $5.0 million.
The Private Placement
Shares are not transferable or salable until 30 days after the completion of the initial Business Combination.
Certain proceeds from the Private Placement Shares have been added to the proceeds from the Initial Public Offering held in the Trust Account.
The Sponsor and the
Company’s officers and directors agreed, subject to limited exceptions, not to transfer, assign or sell any of their Private Placement Shares until 30 days after the completion of the initial Business Combination.
Related
Party Loans
The Sponsor paid for
certain expenses on behalf of the Company totaling approximately $11,000 as of December 31, 2020 and the Company
recorded such amount in due to related party in the accompanying balance sheet. On March 2, 2021, the Sponsor agreed to loan the Company an aggregate of up to $300,000 to cover for expenses related to the Initial Public Offering pursuant to a promissory note (the “Note”), and reclassify the outstanding amount due to related
party as borrowing under the Note. This loan was non-interest bearing and payable upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering. The Company borrowed approximately $161,000 under the Note and fully repaid the Note upon closing of the Initial Public Offering, March 2, 2021. Subsequent to the repayment, the loan facility was no longer
available to the Company.
In
addition, in order to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor, or certain of the Company’s officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan
the Company funds as may be required (“Working Capital Loans”). If the Company completes a Business Combination, the Company may repay the Working Capital Loans out of the proceeds of the Trust Account released to the
Company. Otherwise, the Working Capital Loans may be repaid only out of funds held outside the Trust Account. In the event that a Business Combination does not close, the Company may use a portion of the proceeds held
outside the Trust Account to repay the Working Capital Loans but no proceeds held in the Trust Account would be used to repay the Working Capital Loans. Except for the foregoing, the terms of such Working Capital Loans have
not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such loans. The Working Capital Loans would either be repaid upon the consummation of a Business Combination, without interest, or, at the lenders’
discretion, up to $1.5 million of such Working Capital Loans may be convertible into shares of the post Business
Combination entity at a price of $10.00 per share. The shares would be identical to the Private Placement Shares.
As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under the Working
Capital Loans.

Administrative
Support Agreement
Commencing on the date
that the Company’s registration statement relating to its Initial Public Offering was declared effective through the earlier of consummation of the initial Business Combination and the Company’s liquidation, the Company agreed
to reimburse the Sponsor for office space, secretarial and administrative services provided to the Company in the amount of $10,000
per month. The Company incurred approximately $30,000 and $11,000 in general and administrative expenses in the accompanying unaudited condensed statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and
2021, respectively. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had $30,000 and $0, respectively, included in due to related party on the condensed balance sheets.
Note 5 - Commitments and Contingencies
Registration
Rights
The holders of Founder
Shares as well as the Private Placement Shares that may be issued upon conversion of Working Capital Loans, are entitled to registration rights pursuant to a registration and shareholder rights agreement signed upon the
consummation of the Initial Public Offering. The holders of these securities are entitled to make up to three demands,
excluding short form demands, that the Company registers such securities. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to the Company’s completion
of its Business Combination. However, the registration and shareholder rights agreement provides that the Company will not permit any registration statement filed under the Securities Act to become effective until termination of
the applicable lock-up period, which occurs (i) in the case of the Founder Shares, in accordance with the letter agreement the Company’s Initial Shareholders entered into and (ii) in the case of the Private Placement Shares, 30 days after the completion of the Company’s Business Combination. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the
filing of any such registration statements.
Underwriting
Agreement
The Company granted the
underwriters a 45-day option from the final prospectus relating to the Initial Public Offering to purchase up to 1,950,000 additional Public Shares to cover over-allotments at the Initial Public Offering price less the underwriting discounts and
commissions. On March 2, 2021, the underwriters fully exercised the over-allotment option.
The underwriters were paid
an underwriting discount of $0.20 per Public Share, or approximately $3.0 million in the aggregate, paid upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering. In addition, $0.35 per Public Share, or approximately $5.2 million in the
aggregate will be payable to the underwriters for deferred underwriting commissions. The deferred fee will become payable to the underwriters from the amounts held in the Trust Account solely in the event that the Company
completes a Business Combination, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement.
Risks
and Uncertainties
Management continues to
evaluate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the industry and has concluded that the specific impact is not readily determinable as of the date of these financial statements. The condensed financial statements do not include
any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
In February 2022, the Russian Federation and Belarus commenced a military action with the country of Ukraine. As a result of this action, various
nations, including the United States, have instituted economic sanctions against the Russian Federation and Belarus. The impact of this action and related sanctions on the world economy is not determinable as of the date of
these financial statements, and the specific impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows is also not determinable as of the date of these condensed financial statements.

Class B Ordinary Shares - The Company is authorized to issue 20,000,000 Class B ordinary shares with a par value of $0.0001 per share. On
January 4, 2021, the Company issued 3,737,500 Class B ordinary shares, of which up to 487,500 shares were subject to forfeiture to the Company by the Sponsor for no consideration to the extent that the
underwriters’ over-allotment option was not exercised in full or in part, so that the initial shareholders would collectively own 20%
of the Company’s issued and outstanding ordinary shares (excluding the Private Placement Shares) (See Note 4). The Company had 3,737,500
shares issued and outstanding as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.
Ordinary shareholders
of record are entitled to one vote for each share held on all matters to be voted on by shareholders. Holders of
Class A ordinary shares and holders of Class B ordinary shares will vote together as a single class on all matters submitted to a vote of the shareholders except as required by law.
The Class B ordinary
shares will automatically convert into Class A ordinary shares on the first business day following the consummation of the initial Business Combination at a ratio such that the number of Class A ordinary shares issuable upon
conversion of all Founder Shares will equal, in the aggregate, on an as-converted basis, 20% of the sum of (i) the
total number of ordinary shares issued and outstanding (excluding the Private Placement Shares) upon the consummation of the Initial Public Offering, plus (ii) the sum of the total number of Class A ordinary shares issued or
deemed issued or issuable upon conversion or exercise of any equity-linked securities or rights issued or deemed issued, by the Company in connection with or in relation to the consummation of the initial Business Combination,
excluding any Class A ordinary shares or equity-linked securities exercisable for or convertible into Class A ordinary shares issued, deemed issued, or to be issued, to any seller in the initial Business Combination and any
Private Placement Shares issued to the Sponsor, members of the Company’s management team or any of their affiliates upon conversion of Working Capital Loans. In no event will the Class B ordinary shares convert into Class A
ordinary shares at a rate of less than one-to-one.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
|
References to the “Company,” “ARYA Sciences Acquisition Corp IV,” “ARYA,” “our,” “us” or “we” refer to ARYA Sciences Acquisition Corp IV. The following discussion and analysis
of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the unaudited interim condensed financial statements and the notes thereto contained elsewhere in this report. Certain information contained in the
discussion and analysis set forth below includes forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties.
Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
Some of the statements contained in this Report may constitute “forward-looking statements” for purposes of the federal securities laws. Our forward-looking statements include, but are not limited
to, statements regarding our or our management team’s expectations, hopes, beliefs, intentions or strategies regarding the future. In addition, any statements that refer to projections, forecasts or other characterizations of future events or
circumstances, including any underlying assumptions, are forward-looking statements. The words “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “might,” “plan,” “possible,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,”
“should,” “would” and similar expressions may identify forward-looking statements, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking.
The forward-looking statements contained in this Report are based on our current expectations and beliefs concerning future developments and their potential effects on us. There can be no assurance
that future developments affecting us will be those that we have anticipated. These forward-looking statements involve a number of risks, uncertainties (some of which are beyond our control) or other assumptions that may cause actual results or
performance to be materially different from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the following risks, uncertainties (some of which are beyond our control) or
other factors:
• |
we have no operating history and no revenues, and you have no basis on which to evaluate our ability to achieve our business objective;
|
• |
our ability to select an appropriate target business or businesses;
|
• |
our ability to complete a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses (the “Business Combination”);
|
• |
our expectations around the performance of a prospective target business or businesses;
|
• |
our success in retaining or recruiting, or changes required in, our officers, key employees or directors following our initial Business Combination;
|
• |
our officers and directors allocating their time to other businesses and potentially having conflicts of interest with our business or in approving our initial Business Combination;
|
• |
our potential ability to obtain additional financing to complete our initial Business Combination;
|
• |
our pool of prospective target businesses;
|
• |
our ability to consummate an initial Business Combination due to the uncertainty resulting from the recent COVID-19 pandemic;
|
• |
the ability of our officers and directors to generate a number of potential Business Combination opportunities;
|
• |
our public securities’ potential liquidity and trading;
|
• |
the use of proceeds not held in the trust account or available to us from interest income on the trust account balance;
|
• |
the trust account not being subject to claims of third parties;
|
• |
our financial performance following our initial public offering (the “Initial Public Offering”); and
|
• |
the other risks and uncertainties discussed herein, in our filings with the SEC and in our Annual Report on form 10-K, filed with the SEC on March 31, 2022.
|
Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should any of our assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary in material respects from those projected in these
forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required under applicable securities laws.
Overview
We are a blank check company incorporated as a Cayman Islands exempted company on August 24, 2020. We were formed for the purpose of effecting a Business Combination that we have not yet
identified. Our sponsor is ARYA Sciences Holdings IV, a Cayman Islands exempted limited company (the “Sponsor”).
Our registration statement for our Initial Public Offering was declared effective on February 25, 2021. On March 2, 2021, we consummated its Initial Public Offering of 14,950,000 Class A ordinary
shares (the “Public Shares”), including the 1,950,000 Public Shares as a result of the underwriters’ full exercise of their over-allotment option, at an offering price of $10.00 per Public Share, generating gross proceeds of $149.5 million, and
incurring offering costs of approximately $8.8 million, inclusive of approximately $5.2 million in deferred underwriting commissions.
Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, we consummated the private placement (“Private Placement”) of 499,000 Class A ordinary shares (the “Private Placement Shares”), at a
price of $10.00 per Private Placement Share to the Sponsor, generating gross proceeds of approximately $5.0 million.
Upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering and the Private Placement, $149.5 million ($10.00 per Public Share) of the net proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and certain of the proceeds of
the Private Placement were placed in a trust account (“Trust Account”), located in the United States, with Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company acting as trustee, and are invested only in United States “government securities” within the
meaning of Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”) having a maturity of 185 days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 promulgated under the Investment
Company Act which invest only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations, until the earlier of: (i) the completion of a Business Combination and (ii) the distribution of the Trust Account as described below.
Our management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and the sale of Private Placement Shares, although substantially all
of the net proceeds are intended to be applied generally toward consummating a Business Combination.
If we have not completed a Business Combination within 24 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering, or March 2, 2023, 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 the Public Shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including
interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to us to pay our income taxes, if any (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of the then-outstanding Public Shares, which
redemption will completely extinguish Public Shareholders’ rights as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any); and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the
approval of our remaining shareholders and our board of directors, liquidate and dissolve, subject in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) to our obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other
applicable law.
Going forward, we intend to effectuate our initial Business Combination with a new target using cash from the proceeds of our Initial Public Offering and the sale of the Private Placement Shares,
our shares, debt or a combination of cash, equity and debt.
The issuance of additional shares in a Business Combination:
• |
may significantly dilute the equity interest of investors in our Initial Public Offering, which dilution would increase if the anti-dilution provisions in the Class B ordinary shares resulted in the issuance of
Class A ordinary shares on a greater than one-to-one basis upon conversion of the Class B ordinary shares;
|
• |
may subordinate the rights of holders of Class A ordinary shares if preference shares are issued with rights senior to those afforded our Class A ordinary shares;
|
• |
could cause a change in control if a substantial number of our Class A ordinary shares are issued, which may affect, among other things, our ability to use our net operating loss carry forwards, if any, and
could result in the resignation or removal of our present officers and directors;
|
• |
may have the effect of delaying or preventing a change of control of us by diluting the share ownership or voting rights of a person seeking to obtain control of us; and
|
• |
may adversely affect prevailing market prices for our Class A ordinary shares.
|
Similarly, if we issue debt or otherwise incur significant debt, it could result in:
• |
default and foreclosure on our assets if our operating revenues after an initial Business Combination are insufficient to repay our debt obligations;
|
• |
acceleration of our obligations to repay the indebtedness even if we make all principal and interest payments when due if we breach certain covenants that require the maintenance of certain financial ratios or
reserves without a waiver or renegotiation of that covenant;
|
• |
our immediate payment of all principal and accrued interest, if any, if the debt is payable on demand;
|
• |
our inability to obtain necessary additional financing if the debt contains covenants restricting our ability to obtain such financing while the debt is outstanding;
|
• |
our inability to pay dividends on our Class A ordinary shares;
|
• |
using a substantial portion of our cash flow to pay principal and interest on our debt, which will reduce the funds available for dividends on our Class A ordinary shares if declared, expenses, capital
expenditures, acquisitions and other general corporate purposes;
|
• |
limitations on our flexibility in planning for and reacting to changes in our business and in the industry in which we operate;
|
• |
increased vulnerability to adverse changes in general economic, industry and competitive conditions and adverse changes in government regulation; and
|
• |
limitations on our ability to borrow additional amounts for expenses, capital expenditures, acquisitions, debt service requirements, execution of our strategy and other purposes and other disadvantages compared
to our competitors who have less debt.
|
Termination of Business Combination
As described in Note 1 to the financial statements included in this Report, on February 23, 2022, ARYA terminated the previously announced business combination agreement, dated September 29,
2021, by and among Amicus Therapeutics, Inc., a Delaware corporation, us, Amicus GT Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly owned subsidiary of Amicus, and Caritas Therapeutics, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and
wholly owned subsidiary of Amicus GT.
A copy of each of the Termination Agreement is incorporated in this Report by reference to the Current Report on Form 8-K, filed with the SEC on February 23, 2022.
Results of Operations
Our entire activity since inception up to March 31, 2022 was in preparation for our formation and the Initial Public Offering, and since the Initial Public Offering, the search for a prospective
initial Business Combination. We will not be generating any operating revenues until the closing and completion of our initial Business Combination.
For the three months ended March 31, 2022, we had net loss of approximately $211,000, which consisted of approximately $253,000 general and administrative expenses, partially offset by
approximately $42,000 in gains on marketable securities, dividends and interest held in Trust Account.
For the three months ended March 31, 2021, we had net loss of approximately $210,000, which consisted of approximately $226,000 general and administrative expenses, partially offset by
approximately $15,000 in gains on marketable securities, dividends and interest held in Trust Account.
Going Concern
As of March 31, 2022, we had approximately $379,000 in our operating bank account, and negative working capital of approximately $5.4 million.
Our liquidity needs to date have been satisfied through a contribution of $25,000 from Sponsor to cover for certain expenses in exchange for the issuance of the Founder Shares, the loan of
approximately $161,000 from the Sponsor pursuant to the Note (as defined in Note 4), and the proceeds from the consummation of the Private Placement not held in the Trust Account. We fully repaid the Note upon closing of the Initial Public Offering.
In addition, in order to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor, or certain of our officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, provide the Company Working Capital
Loans (as defined in Note 4). As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, there were no amounts outstanding under any Working Capital Loan.
We cannot provide any assurance that new financing along the lines detailed above will be available to us on commercially acceptable terms, if at all. Further, we have until March 2, 2023 to
consummate a Business Combination, but we cannot provide assurance that we will be able to consummate a Business Combination by that date. If a Business Combination is not consummated by the required date, there will be a mandatory liquidation and
subsequent dissolution. In connection with our assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 205-40, “Basis of Presentation – Going
Concern,” we have determined that the working capital deficit and mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern until the earlier of the consummation of the Business
Combination or the date we are required to liquidate. The financial statements do not include any adjustment that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern. We intend to complete our initial business combination
before the mandatory liquidation date; however, there can be no assurance that we will be able to consummate any business combination by March 2, 2023. No adjustments have been made to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities should we be
required to liquidate after March 2, 2023, nor do these financial statements include any adjustments relating to the recovery of the recorded assets or the classification of the liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue as a
going concern.
Management of ARYA continues to evaluate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and has concluded that the specific impact is not readily determinable as of the date of the balance sheet. The
financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
In February 2022, the Russian Federation and Belarus commenced a military action with the country of Ukraine. As a result of this action, various nations, including the United States, have
instituted economic sanctions against the Russian Federation and Belarus. The impact of this action and related sanctions on the world economy are not determinable as of the date of this Report. Further, the specific impact of this action on our
financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows is also not determinable as of the date of this Report.
Contractual Obligations
Administrative Support Agreement
Commencing on the effective date of the registration statement on Form S-1 related to the Initial Public Offering through the earlier of consummation of the initial Business Combination and our
liquidation, we will reimburse the Sponsor for office space, secretarial and administrative services provided to us in the amount of $10,000 per month.
We incurred approximately $30,000 and $11,000 in general and administrative expenses in the accompanying unaudited condensed statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and
2021, respectively. At March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, there were amounts of $30,000 and $0, respectively, included in due to related party on the condensed balance sheet.
Registration Rights
The holders of Founder Shares, Private Placement Shares and Private Placement Shares that may be issued upon conversion of Working Capital Loans, are entitled to registration rights pursuant to a
registration and shareholder rights agreement signed upon the consummation of the Initial Public Offering. The holders of these securities are entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short form demands, that we register such securities. In
addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to our completion of a Business Combination. However, the registration and shareholder rights agreement provides that we will
not permit any registration statement filed under the Securities Act to become effective until termination of the applicable lock-up period, which occurs (i) in the case of the Founder Shares, in accordance with the letter agreement our initial
shareholders entered into and (ii) in the case of the Private Placement Shares, 30 days after the completion of our Business Combination. We will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.
Underwriting Agreement
We granted the underwriters a 45-day option from the date of the final prospectus relating to the Initial Public Offering to purchase up to 1,950,000 additional Public Shares to cover
over-allotments at the Initial Public Offering price less the underwriting discounts and commissions. On March 2, 2021, the underwriters fully exercised the over-allotment option.
The underwriters were paid an underwriting discount of $0.20 per Public Share, or approximately $3.0 million in the aggregate, paid upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering. In addition,
$0.35 per Public Share, or approximately $5.2 million in the aggregate will be payable to the underwriters for deferred underwriting commissions. The deferred fee will become payable to the underwriters from the amounts held in the Trust Account
solely in the event that we complete a Business Combination, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement.
Critical Accounting Policies
Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption
We account for our Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in FASB ASC Topic 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” Class A ordinary shares
subject to mandatory redemption (if any) are classified as liability instruments and are measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable Class A ordinary shares (including Class ordinary shares that feature redemption rights that are either within
the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within our control) are classified as temporary equity. At all other times, Class A ordinary shares are classified as shareholders’ deficit. Our
Class A ordinary shares feature certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of our control and subject to the occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, 14,950,000 Class A ordinary
shares subject to possible redemption are presented at redemption value as temporary equity, outside of the shareholders’ deficit section of our condensed balance sheets.
Immediately upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering, we recognized the accretion from initial book value to redemption amount. The change in the carrying value of redeemable shares of Class
A ordinary shares resulted in charges against additional paid-in capital and accumulated deficit.
Net loss per ordinary shares
We have two classes of shares: Class A ordinary shares and Class B ordinary shares. Income and losses are shared pro rata between the two classes of shares. Net loss per share is computed by
dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the periods. Accretion associated with the Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption is excluded from earnings per share as the redemption value
approximates fair value.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, which simplifies accounting for convertible instruments by removing major separation models required under current GAAP. ASU 2020-06 also removes
certain settlement conditions that are required for equity-linked contracts to qualify for the derivative scope exception, and it simplifies the diluted earnings per share calculation in certain areas. The Company adopted ASU 2020-06 on January 1,
2021. Adoption of ASU 2020-06 did not impact the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
The Company’s management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards updates, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s
unaudited condensed financial statements.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of March 31, 2022, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as defined in Item 303(a)(4)(ii) of Regulation S-K.
JOBS Act
The Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”) contains provisions that, among other things, relax certain reporting requirements for qualifying public companies. We qualify as an
“emerging growth company” and under the JOBS Act are allowed to comply with new or revised accounting pronouncements based on the effective date for private (not publicly traded) companies. We are electing to delay the adoption of new or revised
accounting standards, and as a result, we may not comply with new or revised accounting standards on the relevant dates on which adoption of such standards is required for non-emerging growth companies. As a result, the financial statements may not
be comparable to companies that comply with new or revised accounting pronouncements as of public company effective dates.
Additionally, we are in the process of evaluating the benefits of relying on the other reduced reporting requirements provided by the JOBS Act. Subject to certain conditions set forth in the JOBS
Act, if, as an “emerging growth company,” we choose to rely on such exemptions we may not be required to, among other things, (i) provide an auditor’s attestation report on our system of internal control over financial reporting pursuant to Section
404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, (ii) provide all of the compensation disclosure that may be required of non-emerging growth public companies under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, (iii) comply with any requirement
that may be adopted by the PCAOB regarding mandatory audit firm rotation or a supplement to the auditor’s report providing additional information about the audit and the financial statements (auditor discussion and analysis) and (iv) disclose certain
executive compensation related items such as the correlation between executive compensation and performance and comparisons of the executive compensation to median employee compensation. These exemptions will apply for a period of five years
following the completion of our Initial Public Offering or until we are no longer an “emerging growth company,” whichever is earlier.
Item 3. |
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
|
We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and are not required to provide the information otherwise required under this item.
Item 4. |
Controls and Procedures
|
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our
disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2022, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal
financial officer have concluded that during the period covered by this Report, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of March 31, 2022, because of a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting. A
material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will
not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Specifically, the Company’s management has concluded that our control around the interpretation and accounting for complex financial instruments by the Company was not effectively designed or
maintained. This material weakness resulted in the restatement of the Company’s balance sheet as of March 2, 2021, and its interim financial statements for the quarters ended March 31, 2021 and June 30, 2021. Additionally, this material weakness
could result in a misstatement of the Class A ordinary shares and earnings per share calculation, and related accounts and disclosures that would result in a material misstatement of the financial statements that would not be prevented or detected on
a timely basis.
Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the
time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer or persons performing similar functions, as
appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Other than the steps taken to remediate the material weakness identified in prior periods and further described below, there was no change in our internal
control over financial reporting that occurred during the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2022 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Our principal executive officer and principal financial officer performed additional accounting and financial analyses and other post-closing procedures including consulting with subject matter
experts related to the accounting for complex financial instruments. The Company’s management has expended, and will continue to expend, a substantial amount of effort and resources for the remediation and improvement of our internal control over
financial reporting. While we have processes to properly identify and evaluate the appropriate accounting technical pronouncements and other literature for all significant or unusual transactions, we have expanded and will continue to improve these
processes to ensure that the nuances of such transactions are effectively evaluated in the context of the increasingly complex accounting standards.
PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. |
Legal Proceedings

None.
Item 1A. |
Risk Factors
|
Except for the below risk factor, as of the date of this Report, there have been no material changes to the
risk factors disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 31, 2022. We may disclose changes to such factors or disclose additional factors from time to time in our future filings with the SEC.
Changes in laws or
regulations, or a failure to comply with any laws and regulations, may adversely affect our business, including our ability to negotiate and complete our initial business combination, and results of operations.
We are subject to laws and regulations enacted by national, regional and local governments. In particular, we are required to comply
with certain SEC and other legal requirements. Compliance with, and monitoring of, applicable laws and regulations may be difficult, time consuming and costly. Those laws and regulations and their interpretation and application may also change from
time to time and those changes could have a material adverse effect on our business, investments and results of operations. In addition, a failure to comply with applicable laws or regulations, as interpreted and applied, could have a material
adverse effect on our business, including our ability to negotiate and complete our initial business combination, and results of operations.
On March 30, 2022, the SEC issued proposed rules relating to, among other items, enhancing disclosures in business combination
transactions involving SPACs and private operating companies and increasing the potential liability of certain participants in proposed business combination transactions. These rules, if adopted, whether in the form proposed or in revised form, may
materially increase the costs and time required to negotiate and complete an initial business combination and could potentially impair our ability to complete an initial business combination.
Item 2. |
Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds from Registered Securities.
|
Simultaneously with the consummation of the Initial Public Offering and the exercise of the over-allotment option by the underwriters in full, our sponsor purchased 499,000 Private Placement
Shares, at a price of $10.00 per Private Placement Share to the Sponsor, generating gross proceeds of approximately $5.0 million. A portion of the proceeds from the Private Placement Shares was added to the proceeds from the Initial Public Offering
held in the Trust Account.
In connection with the Initial Public Offering, our sponsor had agreed to loan us an aggregate of up to $300,000 pursuant to the Note. This loan is non-interest bearing and payable on the
consummation of the Initial Public Offering. On March 2, 2021, we repaid the Note in full.
Of the gross proceeds received from the Initial Public Offering and the full exercise of the option to purchase additional Shares, $149,500,000 was placed in the Trust Account. The net proceeds of
the Initial Public Offering and certain proceeds from the Private Placement are invested in U.S. government treasury bills with a maturity of 180 days or less and in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment
Company Act which invest only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations.
We paid a total of approximately $3.0 million in underwriting discounts and commissions related to the Initial Public Offering. In addition, the underwriters agreed to defer $5.2 million in
underwriting discounts and commissions.
