NOTE 1. DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS

Bright Lights Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) is a blank check company incorporated in Delaware on September 15, 2020. The Company was formed for the purpose of effectuating a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or other similar business combination with one or more businesses (the “Business Combination”).

The Company has four wholly-owned subsidiaries, Bright Lights Parent Corp. (“ParentCo”), Mower Merger Sub Corp. (“Merger Sub Corp”), Mower Intermediate Holdings, Inc. (“Intermediate Holdco”), and Mower Merger Sub 2, LLC (“Merger Sub LLC”), which is a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of Intermediate Holdco. All subsidiaries were incorporated in the state of Delaware on November 10, 2021.

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 of June 30, 2022, the Company had not yet commenced any operations. All activity for the period September 15, 2020 (inception) through June 30, 2022 relates to the Company’s formation, initial public offering (the “Initial Public Offering”), which is described below, and, subsequent to the Initial Public Offering, identifying a target company for a Business Combination. The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of its initial Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company believes it will generate non-operating income in the form of interest income from the proceeds derived from the Initial Public Offering. On November 22, 2021, the Company, ParentCo, Intermediate Holdco, Merger Sub Corp, Merger Sub LLC, and Manscaped Holdings, LLC (“Manscaped”) entered into a business combination agreement (the “BCA” or “Business Combination Agreement”) (see Note 6).

The registration statement for the Company’s Initial Public Offering was declared effective on January 6, 2021. On January 11, 2021, the Company consummated the Initial Public Offering of 23,000,000 units (the “Units” and, with respect to the shares of Class A common stock included in the Units sold, the “Public Shares”), which includes the full exercise by the underwriter of its over-allotment option in the amount of 3,000,000 Units, at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $230,000,000, which is described in Note 3.

Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the sale of 6,600,000 warrants (each, a “Private Placement Warrant” and, collectively, the “Private Placement Warrants”) at a price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant in a private placement to Bright Lights Sponsor LLC (the “Sponsor”), generating gross proceeds of $6,600,000, which is described in Note 4.

Transaction costs amounted to $12,301,684, consisting of $4,325,000 of underwriting fees, $7,568,750 of deferred underwriting fees and $407,934 of other offering costs.

Following the closing of the Initial Public Offering on January 11, 2021, an amount of $230,000,000 ($10.00 per Unit) from the net proceeds of the sale of the Units in the Initial Public Offering and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants was placed in a trust account (the “Trust Account”), invested in U.S. government securities, within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”) with a maturity of 185 days or less, or in any open-ended investment company that holds itself out as a money market fund meeting the conditions of Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act, as determined by the Company, until the earlier of: (i) the consummation of a Business Combination or (ii) the distribution of the funds in the Trust Account to the Company’s stockholders, 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 the Private Placement Warrants, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be applied generally toward consummating a Business Combination. Nasdaq rules provide that the Business Combination must be with one or more target businesses that together have a fair market value equal to at least 80% of the balance in the Trust Account (less any deferred underwriting commissions and taxes payable on interest earned on the Trust Account) at the time of the signing a definitive agreement to enter a Business Combination. The Company will only complete a Business Combination if the post-Business Combination 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. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully effect or complete a Business Combination.

The Company will provide its holders of the outstanding Public Shares (the “public stockholders”) 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 stockholder meeting called to approve the Business Combination or (ii) by means of a tender offer. The decision as to whether the Company will seek stockholder approval of a Business Combination or conduct a tender offer will be made by the Company, solely in its discretion. The public stockholders 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 its tax obligations). There will be no redemption rights upon the completion of a Business Combination with respect to the Company’s warrants.

(Unaudited)

The Company will proceed with a Business Combination only if the Company has net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001 either prior to or upon such consummation of a Business Combination and, if the Company seeks stockholder approval, a majority of the shares voted are voted in favor of the Business Combination. If a stockholder vote is not required by law and the Company does not decide to hold a stockholder vote for business or other reasons, the Company will, pursuant to its Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation”), 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, stockholder approval of the transaction is required by law, or the Company decides to obtain stockholder 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. If the Company seeks stockholder 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 Initial Public Offering in favor of approving a Business Combination. Additionally, each public stockholder may elect to redeem their Public Shares irrespective of whether they vote for or against the proposed transaction or do not vote at all.

Notwithstanding the above, if the Company seeks stockholder approval of a Business Combination and it does not conduct redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules, the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation provides that a public stockholder, together with any affiliate of such stockholder or any other person with whom such stockholder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined under Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), will be restricted from redeeming its shares with respect to more than an aggregate of 20% of the Public Shares, without the prior consent of the Company.

The Sponsor and initial stockholders of the Company have agreed (a) to waive their redemption rights with respect to their Founder Shares and Public Shares held by them in connection with the completion of a Business Combination, (b) to waive their liquidation rights with respect to the Founder Shares if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination by January 11, 2023 and (c) not to propose an amendment to the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (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 its Public Shares if the Company does not complete a Business Combination or (ii) with respect to any other provision relating to stockholders’ rights or pre-initial business combination activity, unless the Company provides the public stockholders with the opportunity to redeem their Public Shares in conjunction with any such amendment.

The Company will have until January 11, 2023 to complete a Business Combination or any extended period of time that the Company has to consummate a Business Combination as a result of an amendment to the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Combination Period”). If the Company is unable to complete 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 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 tax obligations (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then outstanding Public Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public stockholders’ rights as stockholders (including the right to receive further liquidating distributions, if any), and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the Company’s remaining stockholders and the Company’s board of directors, dissolve and liquidate, subject in each case to the Company’s obligations under Delaware law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. There will be no redemption rights or liquidating distributions with respect to the Company’s warrants, which will expire worthless if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period.

The Sponsor and initial stockholders of the Company have agreed to waive their liquidation rights with respect to the Founder Shares if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period. However, if the Sponsor or the initial stockholders of the Company acquire Public Shares in or after the Initial Public Offering, 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 in 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 Initial Public Offering price per Unit ($10.00).

In order to protect the amounts held in the Trust Account, the Sponsor has agreed to be liable to the Company if and to the extent any claims by a third party 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 (1) $10.00 per Public Share or (2) the actual amount per Public Share held in the Trust Account as of the date of the liquidation of the Trust Account due to reductions in the value of the trust assets, in each case net of the interest which may be withdrawn to pay our taxes. This liability will not apply with respect to any claims by a third party who executed a waiver of any and all rights to seek access to the Trust Account and except as 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 (except 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.

Going Concern

As of June 30, 2022, the Company had $21,917 in its operating bank accounts, $230,359,880 in securities held in the Trust Account to be used for a Business Combination or to repurchase or redeem its common stock in connection therewith and a working capital deficit of $5,615,624, which excludes franchise and income taxes payable as such amounts can be paid from the interest earned in the Trust Account. As of June 30, 2022, $359,880 of the amount on deposit in the Trust Account represented interest income, which is available to pay the Company’s tax obligations.

Until the consummation of a Business Combination, the Company will be using the funds not held in the Trust Account for identifying and evaluating prospective acquisition candidates, performing due diligence on prospective target businesses, paying for travel expenditures, selecting the target business to acquire, and structuring, negotiating and consummating the Business Combination.

The Company may raise additional capital through loans or additional investments from its Sponsor, stockholders, officers, directors, or third parties. The Company’s officers, directors and Sponsor may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds, from time to time or at any time, in whatever amount they deem reasonable in their sole discretion, to meet the Company’s working capital needs. Accordingly, the Company may not be able to obtain additional financing. If the Company is unable to raise additional capital, it may be required to take additional measures to conserve liquidity, which could include, but not necessarily be limited to, curtailing operations, suspending the pursuit of a potential transaction, and reducing overhead expenses. The Company cannot provide any assurance that new financing will be available to it on commercially acceptable terms, if at all. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern through January 11, 2023, the date that the Company will be required to cease all operations, except for the purpose of winding up, if a Business Combination is not consummated. These condensed consolidated financial statements do not 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. 

Risks and Uncertainties

In February 2022, Russia 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 Russia. The invasion of Ukraine may result in market volatility that could adversely affect our stock price and our search for a target company. Further, the impact of this action and related sanctions on the world economy are 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.

Management is currently evaluating the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and has concluded that while it is reasonably possible that the virus 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 the condensed consolidated financial statements. The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTE 2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X of the SEC. Certain information or footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC for interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of a normal recurring nature, which are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, operating results and cash flows for the periods presented.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with the SEC on March 14, 2022. The interim results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2022 or for any future periods.

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Emerging Growth Company

The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”), and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. 

BRIGHT LIGHTS ACQUISITION CORP.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 2022

(Unaudited)

Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements with another public company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with 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 condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.

Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. One of the more significant accounting estimates included in these condensed consolidated financial statements is the determination of the fair value of the warrant liabilities as well as the fair value of the Convertible Promissory Note (as defined under Note 2 herein). Such estimates may be subject to change as more current information becomes available and accordingly the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. The Company did not have any cash equivalents as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

Offering Costs

Offering costs consisted of legal, accounting and other expenses incurred through the Initial Public Offering that were directly related to 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 warrant liabilities were expensed as incurred in the statements of operations. Offering costs associated with the Class A common stock issued were charged to temporary equity and warrants upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering. Offering costs amounting to $12,301,684 were charged to stockholders’ equity upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering and $788,627 were expensed as of the date of the Initial Public Offering.

Marketable Securities Held in Trust Account

As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, substantially all of the Company’s investments held in the Trust Account are classified as trading securities. Trading securities are presented on the condensed consolidated balance sheet at fair value at the end of each reporting period. Gains and losses resulting from the change in fair value of investments held in Trust Account are included in interest earned on marketable securities held in Trust Account in the accompanying statements of operations.

Class A Common Stock Subject to Possible Redemption

The Company accounts for its Class A common stock subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” Shares of Class A common stock subject to mandatory redemption is classified as a liability instrument and is measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable common stock (including common stock that features 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, common stock is classified as stockholders’ equity. The Company’s Class A common stock features certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, Class A common stock subject to possible redemption is presented at redemption value as temporary equity, outside of the stockholders’ deficit section of the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets.

BRIGHT LIGHTS ACQUISITION CORP.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 2022
(Unaudited)

The Company recognizes changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and adjusts the carrying value of redeemable common stock to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Increases or decreases in the carrying amount of redeemable common stock are affected by charges against additional paid-in capital and accumulated deficit.

Warrant Liabilities

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”) Accounting Standards Codification (“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, 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 common stock, 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 additional paid-in capital 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 a liability at their initial fair value on the date of issuance, and each balance sheet date thereafter. Changes in the estimated fair value of the warrants are recognized as a non-cash gain or loss on the statements of operations.

The Company accounts for the Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants (together, the “Warrants”) in accordance with the guidance contained in ASC 815-40. The Warrants are not considered indexed to the Company’s own common stock and, as such, the Warrants do not meet the criteria for equity treatment and must be recorded as liabilities. The Private Placement Warrants and the Public Warrants for periods where no observable traded price was available were valued using the Modified Monte Carlo Simulation and Modified Black Scholes option pricing models (see Note 9).

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes under ASC 740, “Income Taxes.” ASC 740, Income Taxes, requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for both the expected impact of differences between the unaudited condensed financial statements and tax basis of assets and liabilities and for the expected future tax benefit to be derived from tax loss and tax credit carry forwards. ASC 740 additionally requires a valuation allowance to be established when it is more likely than not that all or a portion of deferred tax assets will not be realized. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company’s deferred tax asset had a full valuation allowance recorded against it.

Our effective tax rate was 0.15% and 0.00% for the three month ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and 0.10% and 0.00% for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The effective tax rate differs from the statutory tax rate of 21% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, due to changes in fair value in warrant liability and the valuation allowance on the deferred tax assets.

ASC 740 also clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. ASC 740 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim period, disclosure and transition.

The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. There were no unrecognized tax benefits and no amounts accrued for interest and penalties as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviation from its position.

The Company has identified the United States as its only “major” tax jurisdiction. The Company is subject to income taxation by major taxing authorities since inception. These examinations may include questioning the timing and amount of deductions, the nexus of income among various tax jurisdictions and compliance with federal and state tax laws. The Company’s management does not expect that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits will materially change over the next twelve months.

Net Income (Loss) Per Common Share

Net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common stock outstanding for the period. The Company applies the two-class method in calculating net income (loss) per common share. The remeasurement adjustment associated with the redeemable shares of Class A common stock is excluded from net income (loss) per common share as the redemption value approximates fair value.

The calculation of diluted income per share does not consider the effect of the warrants issued in connection with the (i) Initial Public Offering, and (ii) the private placement since the exercise of the warrants is contingent upon the occurrence of future events and (iii) any warrants that could be acquired through conversion of convertible debt. The warrants are exercisable to purchase 18,100,000 shares of Class A common stock in the aggregate. As of June 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company did not have any dilutive securities or other contracts that could, potentially, be exercised or converted into common stock and then share in the earnings of the Company. As a result, diluted net income (loss) per common share is the same as basic net income (loss) per common share for the periods presented.

The following table reflects the calculation of basic and diluted net income (loss) per common share (in dollars, except per share amounts):

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 of $250,000. The Company has not experienced losses on these accounts.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurement,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets, primarily due to their short-term nature, except for warrant liabilities and the convertible promissory note (see Note 9).

Recent Accounting Standards

Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

Convertible Promissory Note – Related Party

On January 18, 2022, the Company entered into a convertible promissory note (the “Convertible Promissory Note”) with the Sponsor. Pursuant to the Convertible Promissory Note, the Sponsor agreed to loan to the Company up to $1.5 million to be used for working capital purposes.

The Company accounts for its convertible promissory note under ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”). Under 815-15-25, the election can be made at the inception of a financial instrument to account for the instrument under the fair value option under ASC 825, Financial Instruments (“ASC 825”). The Company has made such election for its convertible promissory note. Using the fair value option, the convertible promissory note is required to be recorded at its initial fair value on the date of issuance, and each balance sheet date thereafter. Differences between the face value of the convertible promissory note and fair value at issuance are recognized as either an expense in the statement of operations (if issued at a premium) or as a capital contribution (if issued at a discount). Any material changes in the estimated fair value of the convertible promissory note are recognized as non-cash gains or losses in the condensed statements of operations. 

The Company reviews the terms of convertible debt issued to determine whether there are embedded derivative instruments, including embedded conversion options, which are required to be bifurcated and accounted for separately as derivative financial instruments. In circumstances where the host instrument contains more than one embedded derivative instrument, including the conversion option, that is required to be bifurcated, the bifurcated derivative instruments are accounted for as a single, compound derivative instrument. 

Bifurcated embedded derivatives are initially recorded at fair value and are then revalued at each reporting date with changes in the fair value reported as non-operating income or expense. When the equity or convertible debt instruments contain embedded derivative instruments that are to be bifurcated and accounted for as liabilities, the total proceeds received are first allocated to the fair value of all the bifurcated derivative instruments. The remaining proceeds, if any, are then allocated to the host instruments themselves, usually resulting in those instruments being recorded at a discount from their face value. The discount from the face value of the convertible debt, together with the stated interest on the instrument, is amortized over the life of the instrument through periodic charges to interest expense. 

NOTE 3 — INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING

On January 11, 2021, pursuant to the Initial Public Offering, the Company sold 23,000,000 Units which includes a full exercise by the underwriters of their over-allotment option in the amount of 3,000,000 Units, at a purchase price of $10.00 per Unit. Each Unit consists of one share of the Company’s Class A common stock, $0.0001 par value, and one-half of one redeemable warrant (“Public Warrant”). Each Public Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share of Class A common stock at an exercise price of $11.50 per whole share.

NOTE 4 — PRIVATE PLACEMENT

Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Sponsor purchased an aggregate of 6,600,000 Private Placement Warrants at a price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant ($6,600,000 in the aggregate), in a private placement. Each Private Placement Warrant is exercisable to purchase one share of Class A common stock at a price of $11.50 per share. The proceeds from the sale of the Private Placement Warrants were added to the net proceeds from the Initial Public Offering held in the Trust Account. If the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the proceeds from the sale of the Private Placement Warrants will be used to fund the redemption of the Public Shares (subject to the requirements of applicable law) and the Private Placement Warrants will expire worthless.

NOTE 5 — RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Founder Shares

On September 29, 2020, the Sponsor paid $25,000 to cover certain offering costs of the Company in consideration for 5,750,000 shares of Class B common stock (the “Founder Shares”). The Founder Shares included an aggregate of up to 750,000 shares subject to forfeiture by the Sponsor to the extent that the underwriter’s over-allotment was not exercised in full or in part, so that the amount of Founder Shares outstanding equals, on an as-converted basis, 20% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares after the Initial Public Offering (assuming the Sponsor does not purchase any Public Shares in the Initial Public Offering). As a result of the underwriters’ election to fully exercise their over-allotment option, no Founder Shares are currently subject to forfeiture.

The Sponsor has agreed, subject to certain limited exceptions, not to transfer, assign or sell any of the Founder Shares until the earlier to occur of: (A) one year after the completion of a Business Combination or (B) subsequent to a Business Combination, (x) if the last reported sale price of the Class A common stock equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after a Business Combination, or (y) the date on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, capital stock exchange or other similar transaction that results in all of the Company’s stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of common stock for cash, securities or other property.

Administrative Services Agreement

The Company agreed, commencing on January 7, 2021, to pay the Sponsor a total of $10,000 per month for office space, secretarial and administrative support. Upon completion of the Business Combination or the Company’s liquidation, the Company will cease paying these monthly fees. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company incurred and paid $30,000 and $60,000, respectively, in fees for these services. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company incurred and paid $30,000 and $58,065 in fees for these services.

Lee Strategic Services Agreement

Commencing on January 6, 2021, the Company agreed to pay its Chief Financial Officer, Hahn Lee, $12,500 per month for his services prior to the initial Business Combination. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company incurred and paid $37,500 and $75,000, respectively, in fees for these services. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company incurred and paid $37,500 and $72,983 in fees for these services.

Promissory Note — Related Party

On September 29, 2020, the Sponsor agreed to loan the Company an aggregate of up to $300,000 to cover expenses related to the Initial Public Offering pursuant to a promissory note (the “Note”). The Note was non-interest bearing and payable on the earlier of (i) June 30, 2021, (ii) the consummation of the Initial Public Offering or (iii) the date on which the Company determines not to proceed with the Initial Public Offering. As of December 31, 2020, there was $155,000 in borrowings outstanding under the Promissory Note. The outstanding balance under the Note of $155,000 was repaid at the closing of the Initial Public Offering on January 11, 2021. Borrowings under the Note are no longer available.

Related Party Loans

In order to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor or certain of the Company’s directors and officers may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds as may be required (“Working Capital Loans”). If the Company completes a Business Combination, the Company would repay the Working Capital Loans out of the proceeds of the Trust Account released to the Company. Otherwise, the Working Capital Loans would be repaid only out of funds held outside the Trust Account. In the event that a Business Combination does not close, the Company may use a portion of proceeds held outside the Trust Account to repay the Working Capital Loans, but no proceeds held in the Trust Account would be used to repay the Working Capital Loans. The Working Capital Loans would either be repaid upon consummation of a Business Combination, without interest, or, at the lender’s discretion, up to $1,500,000 of such Working Capital Loans may be convertible into warrants of the post-Business Combination entity at a price of $1.00 per warrant. The warrants would be identical to the Private Placement Warrants. In December 2021, the Sponsor advanced $200,000 to the Company for incurred expenses as an advance. This was included in the Advance – related party on the condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2021. On January 18, 2022, the $200,000 advance was converted into a Working Capital Loan via the Convertible Promissory Note. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, there were $692,930 and $0, respectively, outstanding under our Working Capital Loans and included in the Convertible Promissory Note – related party on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The Company assessed the provisions of the Convertible Promissory Note under ASC 470-20. The derivative component of the obligation is initially valued and classified as a derivative liability. The conversion value has had zero value since the inception of the loan. Prior to March 31, 2022, the fair value approximated the face value and any difference was immaterial. During the quarter ended June 30, 2022, the conversion option was valued using an option pricing framework, which is considered to be a Level 3 fair value measurement and based on the following assumptions (see Note 9):

The following table presents the change in the fair value of the debt for the borrowings.

Registration Rights

Pursuant to a registration rights agreement entered into on January 6, 2021, the holders of the Founder Shares, Private Placement Warrants and any warrants that may be issued upon conversion of the Convertible Promissory Note (and any shares of Class A common stock issuable upon the exercise of the Private Placement Warrants and warrants that may be issued upon conversion of Convertible Promissory Note and upon conversion of the Founder Shares) will have registration rights to require the Company to register a sale of any of our securities held by them. The holders of these securities are entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short form demands, that the Company register such securities. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to the completion of a Business Combination. The registration rights agreement does not contain liquidating damages or other cash settlement provisions resulting from delays in registering the Company’s securities. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.

Business Combination Agreement

On November 22, 2021, the Company entered into the BCA, by and among the Company, ParentCo, Intermediate Holdco, Merger Sub Corp, Merger Sub LLC, and Manscaped. 

Pursuant to the BCA, subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, among others: (i) the Company and ParentCo will enter into a merger transaction pursuant to which the Company will merge with and into ParentCo (the “ParentCo Merger”), pursuant to which the separate corporate existence of the Company will cease and ParentCo will be the surviving corporation, (ii) Merger Sub Corp will merge with and into Manscaped, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Manscaped (“Manscaped, Inc.”), pursuant to which the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub Corp will cease and Manscaped, Inc. will be the surviving corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of ParentCo (the “Manscaped, Inc. Merger”), (iii) Manscaped, Inc. will merge with and into Merger Sub LLC (such merger, the “Second Merger” and, together with the Manscaped, Inc. Merger, the “Mergers”), with Merger Sub LLC being the surviving entity of the Second Merger (the “Surviving Entity”), and (iv) following the Mergers, (x) Intermediate Holdco will contribute all of its interest in the Surviving Entity to Manscaped in exchange for limited liability company interests of Manscaped and (y) Intermediate Holdco will become the managing member of Manscaped pursuant to an amended and restated limited liability company agreement of Manscaped. Following the closing (the “Closing”) of the series of transactions contemplated by the BCA (such transactions, the “Business Combination”), the name of ParentCo is expected to change to Manscaped, Inc.

As a result of and upon the effective time of the ParentCo Merger (the “Effective Time”), (1) each then issued and outstanding share of Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Company (the “BLTS Class A Common Stock”), will convert automatically, on a one-for-one basis, into a share of Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of ParentCo (the “ParentCo Class A Common Stock”), (2) each then issued and outstanding share of Class B common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Company (the “BLTS Class B Common Stock”), will convert automatically, on a one-for-one basis, into a share of ParentCo Class A Common Stock, (3) each then issued and outstanding redeemable warrant of BLTSW (each, a “BLTS Warrant”) will convert automatically into a redeemable warrant to acquire one share of ParentCo Class A Common Stock (each, a “ParentCo Warrant”) pursuant to the Assignment, Assumption and Amendment Agreement between the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company (“Continental”), as warrant agent (the “Warrant Amendment”), and (4) each of the then issued and outstanding units of the Company that have not been previously separated into the underlying shares of BLTS Class A Common Stock and underlying BLTS Warrants upon the request of the holder thereof, will be cancelled and will entitle the holder thereof to one share of ParentCo Class A Common Stock and one-half of one ParentCo Warrant.

Prior to the completion of the Business Combination, (i) 100% of the capital stock of Manscaped, Inc. will be distributed to the equity holders of Manscaped, pro rata in accordance with their respective interests in Manscaped, and (ii) each of the outstanding limited liability company units of Manscaped (“LLC Units”) (other than Incentive Units) will be recapitalized into a single class of limited liability company units, in each case in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Restructuring Agreement (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement).

Additionally, pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement and Manscaped’s limited liability company agreement (which will be amended at Closing), following the achievement of certain milestones, ParentCo will issue ParentCo Class A Common Stock or restricted stock units in ParentCo Class A Common Stock to each holder of Manscaped, Inc. capital stock or restricted stock units of ParentCo as of immediately prior to the effective time of the Manscaped, Inc.

Merger with a pro rata portion thereof in excess of zero (each, a “ParentCo Participant”) in accordance with such ParentCo Participant’s pro rata portion thereof (“ParentCo Earnout”), and Manscaped will issue earnout units in Manscaped to each holder of Manscaped as of immediately following the Closing (each a “Manscaped Participant”) in accordance with such Manscaped Participant’s pro rata portion thereof (“Manscaped Earnout”). The earnout milestones are as follows: (A) if the closing share price of ParentCo Class A Common Stock equals or exceeds $12.50 per share for any 20 trading days within any consecutive 30-trading day period commencing on or after the 150th day after the date on which the Closing takes place (the “Closing Date”) and ending on or prior to the five-year anniversary of the Closing Date (such period, the “Earnout Period”); (B) if the closing share price of ParentCo Class A Common Stock equals or exceeds $15.00 per share for any 20 trading days within any consecutive 30-trading day period during the Earnout Period; and (C) if the closing share price of ParentCo Class A Common Stock equals or exceeds $17.50 per share for any 20 trading days within any consecutive 30-trading day period during the Earnout Period. The $12.50, $15.00 and $17.50 share price milestones, respectively, shall also be deemed to have been achieved if (1) after the Closing Date and prior to the five-year anniversary of the Closing Date, there is a merger, consolidation, business combination, sale of substantially all the assets, reorganization, recapitalization, liquidation, dissolution or other similar transaction with respect to ParentCo and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, whereby all or substantially all of the holders of the outstanding shares of ParentCo Class A Common Stock have such shares converted, exchanged or otherwise replaced with the right to receive cash, securities or other property (an “Earnout Strategic Transaction”), or a definitive agreement providing therefor has been entered into during such time and such transaction is ultimately consummated, and (2) the per share value of the consideration to be received in such transaction equals or exceeds $12.50, $15.00 or $17.50 per share, respectively. Earnout shares or units in respect of each milestone may be issued and earned only once. A total of 38,270,000 shares of ParentCo Class A Common Stock shall be subject to the earnout, taking into account both the ParentCo Earnout and the Manscaped Earnout (on an as converted to ParentCo Class A Common Stock basis).

On January 10, 2022, the parties to the BCA entered into the First Amendment to Business Combination Agreement (the “BCA Amendment”). The BCA Amendment provides that each of the outstanding Company LLC Units (as defined in the BCA) and the shares issuable pursuant to the applicable earnout milestone will be treated as converted to ParentCo Class A common stock, as applicable, issued and to be taken into account in calculating the per share price for purposes of determining whether any earnout milestone has been achieved in connection with certain transactions where all or substantially all the holders of outstanding shares of ParentCo Class A common stock have such shares converted, exchanged or otherwise replaced with the right to receive cash, securities or other property. Additionally, pursuant to the BCA Amendment, the definition of “Earnout Consideration” is amended with respect to each holder of ParentCo Class A common stock and each holder of restricted stock units of ParentCo to equal a portion of the available earnout shares or the available earnout restricted stock units, respectively, as determined by the Board of Managers of Manscaped. The BCA Amendment also removes the definition of “Earnout Pro Rata Portion”. The BCA Amendment also revised the figure in Section 2.4(a) of the BCA to read “22,244,958 Company LLC Units.”

Subscription Agreements

In connection with the execution of the Business Combination Agreement, the Company and ParentCo entered into Subscription Agreements (the “Subscription Agreements”) with certain investors including affiliates and related parties of the Company’s sponsor, Bright Lights Sponsor LLC (the “Sponsor”) (each, a “PIPE Investor”), pursuant to which the PIPE Investors agreed to purchase, in the aggregate, approximately 8,245,873 shares of ParentCo’s Class A Common Stock at $9.20 per share for an aggregate commitment amount of approximately $75 million. Nonetheless, the parties to the Subscription Agreements allowed the Subscription Agreements to automatically terminate on June 22, 2022.

Sponsor Support Agreement

In connection with the execution of the Business Combination Agreement, the Company, Sponsor, Manscaped and certain individuals set forth on Schedule I thereto entered into a Sponsor Support Agreement (the “Sponsor Support Agreement”). Pursuant to the Sponsor Support Agreement, the Sponsor and each director and officer of the Company agreed to, among others, vote to adopt and approve the Business Combination Agreement and all other documents and transactions contemplated thereby, in each case, subject to the terms and conditions of the Sponsor Support Agreement.

Pursuant to the Sponsor Support Agreement, the Sponsor also agreed that, immediately prior to the consummation of the ParentCo Merger (but subject to the prior satisfaction of all of the conditions to Closing), Sponsor will contribute, transfer, assign, convey and deliver to the Company all of its 5,630,000 outstanding shares of BLTS Class B Common Stock, and in exchange, the Company will issue to Sponsor 5,055,000 shares of BLTS Class A Common Stock. The Sponsor also agreed to subject 1,035,000 shares of its ParentCo common stock (the “Sponsor Earnout Shares”), which are comprised of two equal tranches (the “First Target Sponsor Earnout Shares” and the “Second Target Sponsor Earnout Shares,” respectively), to potential forfeiture to ParentCo for no consideration until the occurrence of certain earnout vesting conditions. If, at any time during the period beginning on the Closing Date and ending five years after the Closing Date (such period, the “Sponsor Earnout Period”), the closing share price of ParentCo Class A Common Stock for 20 out of any 30 consecutive trading days equals or exceeds $12.50, then the First Target Sponsor Earnout Shares, or if such price equals or exceeds $15.00 per share, then the Second Target Sponsor Earnout Shares, will immediately vest and no longer be subject to forfeiture. If, upon the expiration of the Sponsor Earnout Period, either such condition has not been met, any Sponsor Earnout Shares that failed to vest will be automatically forfeited and transferred to ParentCo for no consideration. Additionally, in the event that there is an Earnout Strategic Transaction during the Sponsor Earnout Period, then, to the extent that the holders of shares of ParentCo Class A Common Stock receive a price per share of ParentCo Class A Common Stock (such price, the “Earnout Strategic Transaction Price”) that is greater than or equal to the applicable ParentCo trading price described above, any Sponsor Earnout Shares that have not previously vested will be deemed to have vested to the extent that such Sponsor Earnout Shares would have vested if the ParentCo trading price had been the Earnout Strategic Transaction Price for any 20 trading days within any period of 30 trading days during the Sponsor Earnout Period immediately prior to the closing of such transaction.

The shares of Class B common stock will automatically convert into shares of Class A common stock concurrently with or immediately following the consummation of a Business Combination, or earlier at the option of the holder, on a one-for-one basis, subject to adjustment. In the case that additional shares of Class A common stock or equity-linked securities are issued or deemed issued in connection with a Business Combination, the number of shares of Class A common stock issuable upon conversion of all Founder Shares will equal, in the aggregate, on an as-converted basis, 20% of the total number of shares of Class A common stock outstanding after such conversion (after giving effect to any redemptions of shares of Class A common stock by public stockholders), including the total number of shares of Class A common stock issued, or deemed issued or issuable upon conversion or exercise of any equity-linked securities or rights issued or deemed issued, by the Company in connection with or in relation to the consummation of a Business Combination, excluding any shares of Class A common stock or equity-linked securities or rights exercisable or exchangeable for or convertible into shares of Class A common stock issued, or to be issued, to any seller in a Business Combination and any Private Placement Warrants issued to the Sponsor, officers or directors upon conversion of Working Capital Loans, provided that such conversion of Founder Shares will never occur on a less than one-for-one basis.

NOTE 9 — FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The Company follows the guidance in ASC 820 for its financial assets and liabilities that are re-measured and reported at fair value at each reporting period, and non-financial assets and liabilities that are re-measured and reported at fair value at least annually.

The fair value of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities reflects management’s estimate of amounts that the Company would have received in connection with the sale of the assets or paid in connection with the transfer of the liabilities in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In connection with measuring the fair value of its assets and liabilities, the Company seeks to maximize the use of observable inputs (market data obtained from independent sources) and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs (internal assumptions about how market participants would price assets and liabilities). The following fair value hierarchy is used to classify assets and liabilities based on the observable inputs and unobservable inputs used in order to value the assets and liabilities:

As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, assets held in the Trust Account were comprised of $230,359,880 and $230,014,425 in money market funds which are invested primarily in U.S. Treasury Securities, respectively. Through June 30, 2022, the Company had not withdrawn any of interest earned on the Trust Account.

The following table presents information about the Company’s assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation inputs the Company utilized to determine such fair value:

The Company accounts for conversion options embedded in convertible notes in accordance with ASC 815. ASC 815 generally requires companies to bifurcate conversion options embedded in convertible notes from their host instruments and to account for them as free-standing derivative financial instruments. 

The conversion option liability of the Convertible Promissory Note was valued using a Compound Option model which values each borrowing at borrowing date and is revalued at each subsequent reporting date. The Compound Option model’s primary unobservable input utilized in determining the fair value of the conversion option liability is the expected volatility of the common stock. The expected volatility was implied from the Company’s own Public Warrant pricing. Other key assumptions used in connection with the Compound Option model were holding period, risk free rate, dividend yield, exercise price, and underlying warrant value, which were based on market conditions, management assumptions, and terms of the Convertible Promissory Note (see Note 5). 

The Warrants were accounted for as liabilities in accordance with ASC 815-40 and are presented within warrant liabilities on the accompanying June 30, 2022 condensed consolidated balance sheets. The warrant liabilities are measured at fair value at inception and on a recurring basis, with changes in fair value presented within change in fair value of warrant liabilities in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

The warrants are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The warrants were initially valued using a Monte Carlo Simulation method. The Monte Carlo simulation model’s primary unobservable input utilized in determining the fair value of the warrants is the expected volatility of the common stock. The expected volatility as of January 11, 2021 was derived from observable public warrant pricing on comparable ‘blank-check’ companies without an identified target. The subsequent measurements of the Public Warrants after the detachment of the Public Warrants from the Units is classified as Level 1 due to the use of an observable market quote in an active market under the ticker BLTSW. For periods subsequent to the detachment of the Public Warrants from the Units, the close price of the Public Warrant price was used as the fair value of the Warrants as of each relevant date. The subsequent measurements of the Private Placement Warrants after the detachment of the Public Warrants from the Units are classified as Level 2 due to the use of an observable market quote for a similar asset in an active market.

NOTE 10 — SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

The Company evaluated subsequent events and transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date up to the date that the condensed consolidated financial statements were issued. The Company did not identify any subsequent events that would have required adjustment or disclosure in the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Overview

We are a blank check company formed under the laws of the State of Delaware on September 15, 2020, for the purpose of effectuating a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or other similar business combination with one or more businesses. We intend to effectuate our Business Combination using cash from the proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants, our capital stock, debt or a combination of cash, stock and debt.

We expect to continue to incur significant costs in the pursuit of our acquisition plans. We cannot assure you that our plans to complete a Business Combination will be successful. 

Significant Developments During 2022

First Amendment to Business Combination Agreement

On January 10, 2022, the parties to the BCA entered into the First Amendment to the BCA Amendment. The BCA Amendment provides that each of the outstanding Company LLC Units (as defined in the BCA) and the shares issuable pursuant to the applicable earnout milestone will be treated as converted to ParentCo Class A common stock, as applicable, issued and to be taken into account in calculating the per share price for purposes of determining whether any earnout milestone has been achieved in connection with certain transactions where all or substantially all the holders of outstanding shares of ParentCo Class A common stock have such shares converted, exchanged or otherwise replaced with the right to receive cash, securities or other property. Additionally, pursuant to the BCA Amendment, the definition of “Earnout Consideration” is amended with respect to each holder of ParentCo Class A common stock and each holder of restricted stock units of ParentCo to equal a portion of the available earnout shares or the available earnout restricted stock units, respectively, as determined by the Board of Managers of Manscaped. The BCA Amendment also removes the definition of “Earnout Pro Rata Portion”. The BCA Amendment also revises the figure in Section 2.4(a) of the BCA to read “22,244,958 Company LLC Units.”

First Amendment to Sponsor Support Agreement

On January 10, 2022, the parties to the Sponsor Support Agreement entered into the First Amendment to Sponsor Support Agreement (the “SSA Amendment”). Pursuant to the SSA Amendment, the definition of “Earnout Strategic Transaction Price,” which is the price used to determine whether the shares owned by the Sponsor that, as part of the transactions contemplated by the BCA, as amended, are to be subjected to potential forfeiture to ParentCo for no consideration until the occurrence of certain earnout vesting conditions (such shares, the “Sponsor Earnout Shares”), will vest in connection with certain transactions, was amended such that the Sponsor Earnout Shares to be issued are to be taken into account when determining the Earnout Strategic Transaction Price.

Convertible Promissory Note – Related Party

On January 18, 2022, the Company entered into a Convertible Promissory Note (the “Convertible Promissory Note”) with the Sponsor. Pursuant to the Convertible Promissory Note, the Sponsor agreed to loan to the Company up to $1.5 million to be used for working capital purposes. In December 2021, the Sponsor advanced $200,000 to the Company for incurred expenses, which advance is deemed to have been a drawdown under the Convertible Promissory Note. Up to $1.5 million of the loans may be settled in whole warrants to purchase Class A common stock of the Company at a conversion price equal to $1.00 per warrant. The warrants are identical to the Private Placement Warrants. The loans do not bear any interest, and will be repayable by the Company to the Sponsor upon the earlier of the date by which the Company must complete a Business Combination pursuant to its amended and restated certificate of incorporation (as amended from time to time) and the consummation of the Business Combination between the Company, the Company’s subsidiaries and Manscaped. If the Company completes a Business Combination, the Company would repay the Convertible Promissory Note out of the proceeds of the Trust Account released to the Company. Otherwise, the Convertible Promissory Note would be repaid only out of funds held outside the Trust Account. In the event that a Business Combination does not close, the Company may use a portion of proceeds held outside the Trust Account to repay the Convertible Promissory Note, but no proceeds held in the Trust Account would be used to repay the Convertible Promissory Note.

Results of Operations

We have neither engaged in any operations nor generated any operating revenues to date. Our entire activity from inception through June 30, 2022 were related to our formation, the preparation for the Initial Public Offering, described below, and since the closing of our Initial Public Offering, identifying and evaluating a target company for a Business Combination. We do not expect to generate any operating revenues until after the completion of our initial Business Combination. We expect to continue to generate non-operating income in the form of interest income on marketable securities held in the Trust Account. We expect that we will 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 and related expenses in connection with searching for, and completing, a Business Combination.

For the three months ended June 30, 2022, we had a net income of $8,336,324, which consists of interest earned on marketable securities held in the Trust Account of $326,683, $184,795 in changes in fair value of the convertible promissory note, and changes in fair value of warrant liabilities of $8,507,000, offset by operating and formation costs of $669,985 and provision for income taxes of $12,169.

For the six months ended June 30, 2022, we had a net income of $11,993,018, which consists of interest earned on marketable securities held in the Trust Account of $345,455, $184,795 in changes in fair value of the convertible promissory note, and changes in fair value of warrant liabilities of $13,032,000, offset by operating and formation costs of $1,557,063 and provision for income taxes of $12,169.

For the three months ended June 30, 2021, we had a net loss of $5,091,787, which consists of operating and formation costs of $2,018,283 and changes in fair value of warrant liabilities of $3,077,000, offset by interest earned on marketable securities held in Trust Account of $3,496.

For the six months ended June 30, 2021, we had a net income of $3,515,759, which consists of changes in fair value of warrant liabilities of $8,507,000 and interest earned on marketable securities held in Trust Account of $6,530, offset by operating and formation costs of $2,493,144, a loss on the initial issuance of the Private Placement Warrants of $1,716,000 and transaction costs associated with the Initial Public Offering of $788,627.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

On January 11, 2021, we consummated the Initial Public Offering of 23,000,000 Units at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $230,000,000. Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, we consummated the sale of 6,600,000 Private Placement Warrants at a price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant in a private placement to the Sponsor generating gross proceeds of $6,600,000.

Following the Initial Public Offering, the full exercise of the over-allotment option, and the sale of the Private Units, a total of $230,000,000 was placed in the Trust Account. We incurred $12,301,684 in Initial Public Offering related costs, including $4,325,000 of underwriting fees, $7,568,750 of deferred underwriting fees and $407,934 of other costs.

For the six months ended June 30, 2022, cash used in operating activities was $795,157. Net income of $11,993,018 was affected by the interest earned on marketable securities held in the Trust Account of $345,455, changes in fair value of warrant liabilities of $13,032,000 and change in fair value of the Convertible Promissory Note of $184,795. Changes in operating assets and liabilities provided $774,075 of cash for operating activities.

For the six months ended June 30, 2021, cash used in operating activities was $1,567,405. Net income of $3,515,759 was affected by the change in fair value of warrant liabilities of $8,507,000, transaction costs associated with the Initial Public Offering of $788,627, a loss on the initial issuance of the Private Placement Warrants of $1,716,000 and interest earned on marketable securities held in the Trust Account of $6,530. Changes in operating assets and liabilities provided $925,739 of cash for operating activities.

For the six months ended June 30, 2022, net cash provided by financing activities was $730,000 as a result of the drawdowns on the Convertible Note.

We intend to use substantially all of the funds held in the Trust Account, including any amounts representing interest earned on the Trust Account (less deferred underwriting commissions and income taxes payable), to complete our Business Combination. To the extent that our capital stock or debt is used, in whole or in part, as consideration to complete our 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, 2022, we had cash of $21,917. We intend to use the 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 order to fund working capital deficiencies or 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, loan us funds as may be required. If we complete a Business Combination, we may repay such loaned amounts out of the proceeds of the Trust Account released to us. In the event that a Business Combination does not close, we may use a portion of the working capital held outside the Trust Account to repay such loaned amounts, but no proceeds from our Trust Account would be used for such repayment. Up to $1,500,000 of such loans may be convertible into warrants, at a price of $1.00 per warrant, at the option of the lender. The warrants would be identical to the Private Placement Warrants.

Going Concern

As of June 30, 2022, the Company had $21,917 in its operating bank accounts, $230,359,880 in securities held in the Trust Account to be used for a Business Combination or to repurchase or redeem its common stock in connection therewith and a working capital deficit of $5,615,624, which excludes franchise and income taxes payable as such amounts can be paid from the interest earned in the Trust Account. As of June 30, 2022, $359,880 of the amount on deposit in the Trust Account represented interest income, which is available to pay the Company’s tax obligations.

Until the consummation of a Business Combination, the Company will be using the funds not held in the Trust Account for identifying and evaluating prospective acquisition candidates, performing due diligence on prospective target businesses, paying for travel expenditures, selecting the target business to acquire, and structuring, negotiating and consummating the Business Combination.

The Company may raise additional capital through loans or additional investments from its Sponsor, stockholders, officers, directors, or third parties. The Company’s officers, directors and Sponsor may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds, from time to time or at any time, in whatever amount they deem reasonable in their sole discretion, to meet the Company’s working capital needs. Accordingly, the Company may not be able to obtain additional financing. If the Company is unable to raise additional capital, it may be required to take additional measures to conserve liquidity, which could include, but not necessarily be limited to, curtailing operations, suspending the pursuit of a potential transaction, and reducing overhead expenses. The Company cannot provide any assurance that new financing will be available to it on commercially acceptable terms, if at all. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern through January 11, 2023, the date that the Company will be required to cease all operations, except for the purpose of winding up, if a Business Combination is not consummated. These condensed consolidated financial statements do not 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. 

Off-Balance Sheet Financing Arrangements

We have no obligations, assets or liabilities, which would be considered off-balance sheet arrangements as of June 30, 2022. We do not participate in transactions that create relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, often referred to as variable interest entities, which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements. We have not entered into any off-balance sheet financing arrangements, established any special purpose entities, guaranteed any debt or commitments of other entities, or purchased any non-financial assets.

Contractual Obligations

We do not have any long-term debt, capital lease obligations, operating lease obligations or long-term liabilities, other than, an agreement to pay the Sponsor a monthly fee of $10,000 for office space, secretarial, and administrative support services. We began incurring these fees on January 7, 2021 and will continue to incur these fees monthly until the earlier of the completion of the Business Combination and our liquidation.

The underwriters are entitled to a deferred fee of $0.35 per Unit, up to $7,568,750 in the aggregate. 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.

Lee Strategic Services Agreement

Commencing on January 6, 2021 the Company agreed to pay its Chief Financial Officer, Hahn Lee, $12,500 per month for his services prior to the initial Business Combination. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company incurred and paid $37,500 and $75,000, respectively, in fees for these services. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company incurred and paid $37,500 and $72,983 in fees for these services.

Vendor Agreements

On June 24, 2021, the Company entered into an agreement with a vendor for transaction services related to the Business Combination. On August 5, 2021, the Company entered into an additional agreement with the same vendor for PIPE services relating to the Business Combination. At the closing of the Business Combination, this vendor shall receive a cash transaction fee of approximately $7,500,000, which shall be inclusive of both agreements. These fees will only become due and payable upon the consummation of a Business Combination.

On September 17, 2021, the Company entered into an agreement with a vendor for investment banking services related to the pending Business Combination. Specifically, the agreement relates to assisting in raising the funds as part of the PIPE financing. The agreement calls for the vendor to receive a capital markets advisory fee of $1,500,000 and a portion of the placement fee that equals 4% of the gross proceeds of securities sold in the PIPE placement. These fees will only become due and payable upon the consummation of an initial business combination.

Upon the consummation of the Business Combination, the Company will extend its directors and officers insurance policy for a fee of approximately $2,500,000.

Upon the closing of the Business Combination, the Company expects to pay approximately $100,000 for fees related to printer and proxy related services.

First Amendment to Business Combination Agreement

On January 10, 2022, the parties to the BCA entered into the BCA Amendment. The BCA Amendment provides that each of the outstanding Company LLC Units (as defined in the BCA) and the shares issuable pursuant to the applicable earnout milestone will be treated as converted to ParentCo Class A common stock, as applicable, issued and to be taken into account in calculating the per share price for purposes of determining whether any earnout milestone has been achieved in connection with certain transactions where all or substantially all the holders of outstanding shares of ParentCo Class A common stock have such shares converted, exchanged or otherwise replaced with the right to receive cash, securities or other property. Additionally, pursuant to the BCA Amendment, the definition of “Earnout Consideration” is amended with respect to each holder of ParentCo Class A common stock and each holder of restricted stock units of ParentCo to equal a portion of the available earnout shares or the available earnout restricted stock units, respectively, as determined by the Board of Managers of Manscaped. The BCA Amendment also removes the definition of “Earnout Pro Rata Portion”. The BCA Amendment also revises the figure in Section 2.4(a) of the BCA to read “22,244,958 Company LLC Units.”

First Amendment to Sponsor Support Agreement

On January 10, 2022, the parties to the Sponsor Support Agreement entered into the First Amendment to Sponsor Support Agreement (the “SSA Amendment”). Pursuant to the SSA Amendment, the definition of “Earnout Strategic Transaction Price,” which is the price used to determine whether the shares owned by the Sponsor that, as part of the transactions contemplated by the BCA, as amended, are to be subjected to potential forfeiture to ParentCo for no consideration until the occurrence of certain earnout vesting conditions (such shares, the “Sponsor Earnout Shares”), will vest in connection with certain transactions, was amended such that the Sponsor Earnout Shares to be issued are to be taken into account when determining the Earnout Strategic Transaction Price.

Convertible Promissory Note – Related Party

On January 18, 2022, the Company entered into the Convertible Promissory Note with the Sponsor, which is deemed a Working Capital Loan. Pursuant to the Convertible Promissory Note, the Sponsor agreed to loan to the Company up to $1.5 million to be used for working capital purposes. In December 2021, the Sponsor advanced $200,000 to the Company for incurred expenses, which advance is deemed to have been a drawdown under the Convertible Promissory Note. Up to $1.5 million of the loans may be settled in whole warrants to purchase Class A common stock of the Company at a conversion price equal to $1.00 per warrant. The warrants are identical to the Private Placement Warrants. The loans do not bear any interest, and will be repayable by the Company to the Sponsor upon the earlier of the date by which the Company must complete a Business Combination pursuant to its amended and restated certificate of incorporation (as amended from time to time) and the consummation of the Business Combination between the Company, the Company’s subsidiaries and Manscaped. If the Company completes a Business Combination, the Company would repay the Convertible Promissory Note out of the proceeds of the Trust Account released to the Company. Otherwise, the Convertible Promissory Note would be repaid only out of funds held outside the Trust Account. In the event that a Business Combination does not close, the Company may use a portion of proceeds held outside the Trust Account to repay the Convertible Promissory Note, but no proceeds held in the Trust Account would be used to repay the Working Capital Loans. 

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and income and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. We have identified the following critical accounting policies:

Convertible Note – Related Party

The Company accounts for its Convertible Promissory Note under ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”). Under 815-15-25, the election can be at the inception of a financial instrument to account for the instrument under the fair value option under ASC 825. The Company has made such election for its Convertible Promissory Note. Using fair value option, the Convertible Promissory Note is required to be recorded at its initial fair value on the date of issuance, and each balance sheet date thereafter. Changes in the estimated fair value of the note are recognized as non-cash changes in the fair value of the Convertible Promissory Note in the condensed statements of operations. The fair value of the option to convert into private warrants was valued utilizing the closed-form model.

Warrant Liabilities

The Company accounts for the Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants (together, the “Warrants”) in accordance with the guidance contained in ASC 815-40. The Warrants are not considered indexed to the Company’s own common stock, and as such, the Warrants do not meet the criteria for equity treatment and must be recorded as liabilities. The Private Placement Warrants and the Public Warrants for periods where no observable traded price was available were valued using the Modified Monte Carlo Simulation and Modified Black Scholes option pricing models.

Common Stock Subject to Possible Redemption

We account for our common stock subject to possible conversion in accordance with the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” Common stock subject to mandatory redemption is classified as a liability instrument and measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable common stock (including common stock that features redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within our control) is classified as temporary equity. At all other times, common stock is classified as stockholders’ equity. Our common stock features certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of our control and subject to occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, common stock subject to possible redemption is presented at redemption value as temporary equity, outside of the stockholders’ equity section of our condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Net Income (Loss) Per Common Share

Net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common stock outstanding during the period. Accretion associated with the redeemable shares of Class A common stock is excluded from net income (loss) per common share as the redemption value approximates fair value.

Recent Accounting Standards

Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

As of June 30, 2022, we were not subject to any market or interest rate risk. Following the consummation of our Initial Public Offering, the net proceeds of our Initial Public Offering, including amounts in the Trust Account, have been invested in U.S. government treasury obligations with a maturity of 185 days or less or in certain money market funds that invest solely in U.S. treasuries. Due to the short-term nature of these investments, we believe there will be no associated material exposure to interest rate risk.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in our Exchange Act reports (as defined under Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, 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.

As required by Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2022. Based upon their evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) were not effective, due solely to the material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting related to the Company’s accounting for complex financial instruments. As a result, we performed additional analysis as deemed necessary to ensure that our condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Accordingly, management believes that the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Form 10-Q present fairly in all material respects our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the period presented.

Management has implemented remediation steps to improve our internal control over financial reporting. Specifically, we expanded and improved our review process for complex securities and related accounting standards. We plan to further improve 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.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Except as disclosed above, 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.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

None

Item 1A. Risk Factors

Factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those in this Quarterly Report include the risk factors described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 14, 2022 and Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC on May 17, 2022. Any of those factors could result in a significant or material adverse effect on our results of operations or financial condition. Additional risk factors not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also impair our business or results of operations. As of the date of this Quarterly 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 14, 2022 and Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC on May 17, 2022, except as disclosed below. We may also disclose changes to such factors or disclose additional factors from time to time in our future filings with the SEC. For risk factors related to the proposed Manscaped Business Combination, see the “Risk Factors” sections including those set forth in our Registration Statement that includes a proxy statement/prospectus on Form S-4 (File No. 333-262081) that ParentCo filed with the SEC on April 22, 2022, and other documents filed by ParentCo and the Company from time to time with the SEC relating to the proposed Manscaped Business Combination.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.

Unregistered Sales

On September 29, 2020, the Sponsor paid $25,000 to cover certain offering costs of the Company in consideration for 5,750,000 shares of Class B common stock (the “Founder Shares”). The Founder Shares included an aggregate of up to 750,000 shares subject to forfeiture by the Sponsor to the extent that the underwriter’s over-allotment was exercised, so that the number of Founder Shares outstanding would equal 20% of our issued and outstanding common shares after the Initial Public Offering. As a result of the underwriters’ election to fully exercise their over-allotment option, no Founder Shares are currently subject to forfeiture.

The Sponsor has agreed, subject to certain limited exceptions, not to transfer, assign or sell any of the Founder Shares until the earlier to occur of: (A) one year after the completion of a Business Combination or (B) subsequent to a Business Combination, (x) if the last reported sale price of the Class A common stock equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after a Business Combination, or (y) the date on which we complete a liquidation, merger, capital stock exchange or other similar transaction that results in all of our stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of common stock for cash, securities or other property.

Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Sponsor purchased an aggregate of 6,600,000 Private Placement Warrants at a price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant, for an aggregate purchase price of $6,600,000. Each Private Placement Warrant is exercisable to purchase one share of Class A common stock at a price of $11.50 per share. The proceeds from the sale of the Private Placement Warrants were added to the net proceeds from the Initial Public Offering held in the Trust Account. If we do not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the proceeds from the sale of the Private Placement Warrants will be used to fund the redemption of the Public Shares (subject to the requirements of applicable law) and the Private Placement Warrants will expire worthless.

Substantially concurrently with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, we consummated the Private Placement of 6,600,000 Private Placement Warrants, at a price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant to the Sponsor, generating gross proceeds of $6.6 million.

Each issuance was made pursuant to the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act. No underwriting discounts or commissions were paid with respect to such sales.

On January 18, 2022, the Company entered into the Convertible Promissory Note with the Sponsor (the “Lender”) pursuant to which the Lender agreed to loan the Company up to an aggregate principal amount of $1,500,000. The Convertible Promissory Note is non-interest bearing and due on the date on which the Company consummates a Business Combination. If the Company does not consummate a Business Combination, the Company may use a portion of any funds held outside the Trust Account to repay the Convertible Promissory Note; however, no proceeds from the Trust Account may be used for such repayment. If such funds are insufficient to repay the Convertible Promissory Note, the unpaid amounts would be forgiven. Up to $1,500,000 of the Convertible Promissory Note may be converted into warrants at a price of $1.00 per warrant at the option of the Lender. The warrants would be identical to the Private Placement Warrants. As of June 30, 2022, the outstanding balance under the Convertible Promissory Note amounted to an aggregate of $692,930.

Use of Proceeds

On January 11, 2021, we consummated our Initial Public Offering of 23,000,000 Units, including 3,000,000 over-allotment Units, at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $230.0 million. Jefferies LLC and Moelis & Company acted as joint book-running managers for the Initial Public Offering. The securities sold in the Initial Public Offering were registered under the Securities Act on a registration statement on Form S-1 (No. 333-251513). The SEC declared the registration statement effective on January 6, 2021.

In connection with the Initial Public Offering, we incurred offering costs of approximately $12,301,684, (including approximately $4,325,000 of underwriting fees, $7,568,750 of deferred underwriting commissions and $407,934 of other offering costs). Other incurred offering costs consisted principally of preparation fees related to the Initial Public Offering. After deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions (excluding the deferred portion, which amount will be payable upon consummation of the initial Business Combination, if consummated) and the Initial Public Offering expenses, $230.0 million of the net proceeds from our Initial Public Offering and certain of the proceeds from the Private Placement of the Private Placement Warrants (or $10.00 per Unit sold in the Initial Public Offering) was placed in the Trust Account. The net proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and certain proceeds from the sale of the Private Placement Warrants are held in the Trust Account and invested as described elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

There has been no material change in the planned use of the proceeds from the Initial Public Offering and Private Placement as described in our final prospectus related to the Initial Public Offering.
