As of June 30, 2022, the Company had not commenced any operations. All activity for the period from January 8, 2021 (inception) through June 30, 2022 relates to the Company’s formation and the initial public offering (the “Initial Public Offering”) 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 will generate income in the form of income from investments of the proceeds derived from the Initial Public Offering, along with gains and losses from the change in fair value of warrant liabilities. The Company has selected December 31 as its fiscal year end.

The Company’s sponsor is LSP Sponsor EBAC B.V., a Dutch limited liability company (the “Sponsor”). The registration statement for the Company’s Initial Public Offering was declared effective on March 15, 2021. On March 18, 2021, the Company consummated its Initial Public Offering of 12,000,000 units (the “Units” and, with respect to the Class A ordinary shares included in the Units being offered, the “Public Shares”), at $10.00 per Unit, which generated gross proceeds of $120.0 million, and incurring offering costs of approximately $7.1 million, of which $4.5 million was for deferred underwriting commissions (see Note 3). The Company granted the underwriter a option to purchase up to an additional 1,800,000 Units at the Initial Public Offering price to cover over-allotments, if any (the “Over-Allotment Units”). On May 3, 2021, the Company issued 754,784 Over-Allotment Units resulting in total gross proceeds of approximately $7.5 million, and the allotment option for the remaining 1,045,216 Over-Allotment Units expired.

Upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering and the Private Placement, approximately $120.0 million ($10.00 per Unit) of the net proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and certain of the proceeds of the Private Placement were placed in a trust account (“Trust Account”), located in the United States with Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company acting as trustee, and will be invested only in United States “government securities” within the meaning of Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), having a maturity of 185 days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule promulgated under the Investment Company Act which invest only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations, as determined by the Company, until the earlier of: (i) the completion of a Business Combination and (ii) the distribution of the Trust Account as described below. In addition, the Sponsor and certain investors have advanced an aggregate amount of approximately $360,000 into the Trust Account to cover for the over-allotment option, if exercised. The over-allotment option was not exercised, so the excess funds were returned to such related parties. Upon partial exercise of the over-allotment, on May 4, 2021, the Company returned excess cash of $209,040 to the related parties, and placed the net proceeds of $7.4 million in the Trust Account.

The Company will provide the holders (the “Public Shareholders”) of its Public Shares with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares upon the completion of a Business Combination either (i) in connection with a shareholder meeting called to approve the Business Combination or (ii) by means of a tender offer. The decision as to whether the Company will seek shareholder approval of a Business Combination or conduct a tender offer will be made by the Company, solely in its discretion. The Public Shareholders will be entitled to redeem their Public Shares for a pro rata portion of the amount then in the Trust Account ($10.00 per Public Share, plus any pro rata interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay income taxes). The amount to be distributed to Public Shareholders who redeem their Public Shares will not be reduced by the deferred underwriting commissions the Company will pay to the underwriters (as discussed in Note 5).

These Public Shares were classified as temporary equity in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity” (“ASC 480”). In such case, the Company will proceed with a Business Combination if the Company has net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001 upon such consummation of a Business Combination and, only if a majority of the ordinary shares, represented in person or by proxy and entitled to vote thereon, voted at a shareholder meeting are voted in favor of the Business Combination. If a shareholder vote is not required by law and the Company does not decide to hold a shareholder vote for business or other reasons, the Company will, pursuant to the amended and restated memorandum and articles of association which the Company will adopt upon the consummation of the Initial Public Offering (the “Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association”), conduct the redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and file tender offer documents with the SEC prior to completing a Business Combination. If, however, shareholder approval of the transactions is required by law, or the Company decides to obtain shareholder approval for business or reasons, the Company will offer to redeem shares in conjunction with a proxy solicitation pursuant to the proxy rules and not pursuant to the tender offer rules. Additionally, each Public Shareholder may elect to redeem their Public Shares irrespective of whether they vote for or against the proposed transaction or vote at all. If the Company seeks shareholder approval in connection with a Business Combination, the initial shareholders (as defined below) agreed to vote their Founder Shares (as defined below in Note 4) and any Public Shares purchased during or after the Initial Public Offering in favor of a Business Combination. Subsequent to the consummation of the Initial Public Offering, the Company adopted an insider trading policy which will require insiders to: (i) refrain from purchasing shares during certain blackout periods and when they are in possession of any material information and (ii) to clear all trades with the Company’s legal counsel prior to execution. In addition, the initial shareholders agreed to waive their redemption rights with respect to their Founder Shares, private placement shares (the “Private Placement Shares”) underlying the Private Placement Units and Public Shares in connection with the completion of a Business Combination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company seeks shareholder approval of its Business Combination and does not conduct redemptions in connection with its Business Combination pursuant to the tender offer rules, the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association will provide that a Public Shareholder, together with any affiliate of such shareholder or any other person with whom such shareholder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined under Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), will be restricted from redeeming its shares with respect to more than an aggregate of 15% of the Class A ordinary shares sold in the Initial Public Offering, without the prior consent of the Company.

If the Company has not completed a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the Company will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up; (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem the Public Shares, at a price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay its income taxes, if any (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses) divided by the number of the then-outstanding Public Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish Public Shareholders’ rights as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any); and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the remaining shareholders and the board of directors, liquidate and dissolve, subject in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii), to the Company’s obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. 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 consummate a Business Combination within the Combination Period.

Management continues to evaluate the impact of the pandemic on the industry 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 these condensed financial statements. The condensed financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form and Article 8 of Regulation and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP. In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed financial statements reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments necessary for the fair presentation of the balances and results for the periods presented. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected through December 31, 2022, or for any future interim period.

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form for the year ended December 31, 2021, as filed with the SEC on March 31, 2022, which contains the audited financial statements and notes thereto. The accompanying financial information as of December 31, 2021, is derived from the audited financial statements presented in that Form

Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that an emerging growth company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to growth companies but any such an 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.

The Company does not use derivative instruments to hedge exposures to cash flow, market, or foreign currency risks. The Company evaluates all of its financial instruments, including issued stock purchase warrants, to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives, pursuant to ASC 480 and FASB ASC “Derivatives and Hedging-Contracts in Entity’s Own Stock” (“ASC

The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is at the end of each reporting period. The 4,251,595 warrants issued in connection with the Initial Public Offering (the “Public Warrants”) and the 151,699 Private Placement Warrants are recognized as derivative liabilities in accordance with ASC

Accordingly, the Company recognizes the warrant instruments as liabilities at fair value and adjusts the instruments to fair value at each reporting period. The liabilities are subject to at each balance sheet date until exercised, and any change in fair value is recognized in the Company’s condensed statements of operations. The fair value of the Public Warrants issued in connection with the Public Offering and Private Placement Warrants were initially measured at fair value using a Monte Carlo simulation model (see Note 9). For periods subsequent to the detachment of the Public Warrants from the Units, on May 13, 2021, the fair value of the Public Warrants is based on the observable listed price for such warrants. Since the Private Placement Warrants have substantially the same terms as the Public Warrants, the Company determined that the fair value of each Private Placement Warrant is equivalent to that of each Public Warrant.

Offering costs consisted of legal, accounting, underwriting fees and other costs 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 derivative warrant liabilities were expensed as incurred and presented as expenses in the condensed statements of operations. Offering costs associated with the Class A common stock issued were charged against the carrying value of the shares of Class A ordinary shares upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering. The Company classifies deferred underwriting commissions as liabilities as their liquidation is not reasonably expected to require the use of current assets or require the creation of current liabilities.

The Company complies with accounting and disclosure requirements of FASB ASC Topic 260, “Earnings Per Share.” The Company has two classes of shares, which are referred to as Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption and Class A ordinary shares and Class B ordinary shares. Income and losses are shared pro rata between the two classes of shares based on weighted average shares for the period. Net income per common share is calculated by dividing the net income by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding for the respective period.

The Company has considered the effect of Class B ordinary shares that were excluded from weighted average number until the contingency was resolved, as they were contingent on the exercise of over-allotment option by the underwriters. Since the contingency was satisfied, the Company included these shares in the weighted average number as of the beginning of the period to determine the dilutive impact of these shares, resulting in a greater number of Class B ordinary shares being included in weighted average shares for the diluted calculation.

On March 18, 2021, the Company consummated its Initial Public Offering of 12,000,000 Units, at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $120.0 million, and incurring offering costs of approximately $7.1 million, of which $4.5 million was for deferred underwriting commissions. The Company granted the underwriter a option to purchase up to an additional 1,800,000 Units at the Initial Public Offering price to cover over-allotments. On May 3, 2021, the Company issued 754,784 Over-Allotment Units resulting in total gross proceeds of approximately $7.5 million, and the allotment option for the remaining 1,045,216 Over-Allotment units expired.

Each Private Placement Unit consists of one Class A ordinary share and of a private placement warrant. Each whole private placement warrant underlying the Private Placement Units (the “Private Placement Warrants”) is exercisable for one whole Class A ordinary share at a price of $11.50 per share. A portion of the proceeds from the Private Placement Units was added to the 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 Private Placement Units and the underlying securities will expire worthless. The Private Placement Warrants will be (except as described in Note 6 below under “Redemption of warrants for Class A ordinary shares when the price per Class A ordinary share equals or exceeds $10.00”) and exercisable on a cashless basis so long as they are held by the Sponsor or its permitted transferees.

On January 18, 2021, the Sponsor agreed to loan the Company an aggregate of up to $300,000 to cover for expenses related to the Initial Public Offering pursuant to a promissory note (the “Note”). This loan was bearing and payable upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering. The Company borrowed approximately $38,000 under the Note. The Company repaid the Note in full on March 22, 2021. Subsequent to the repayment, the facility was no longer available to the Company.

In addition, the Sponsor, officers and directors, or their respective affiliates will be reimbursed for any expenses incurred in connection with activities on the Company’s behalf such as identifying potential target businesses and performing due diligence on suitable Business Combinations. The Company’s audit committee will review on a quarterly basis all payments that were made by the Company to the Sponsor, executive officers or directors, or their affiliates. Any such payments prior to an initial Business Combination will be made using funds held outside the Trust Account.

The Company is authorized to issue 20,000,000 Class B ordinary shares with a par value of $0.0001 per share. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had 3,188,696 Class B ordinary shares issued and outstanding (See Note 4). Ordinary shareholders of record are entitled to one vote for each share held on all matters to be voted on by shareholders. Except as described below, holders of Class A ordinary shares and holders of Class B ordinary shares will vote together as a single class on all matters submitted to a vote of the shareholders except as required by law. The Class B ordinary shares will automatically convert into Class A ordinary shares at the time of the initial Business Combination or earlier at the option of the holders thereof at a ratio such that the number of Class A ordinary shares issuable upon conversion of all Founder Shares will equal, in the aggregate, on an as converted basis, 20% of the sum of (i) the total number of ordinary shares issued and outstanding (excluding the Private Placement Shares underlying the Private Placement Units) upon completion of the Initial Public Offering, plus (ii) the total number of Class A ordinary shares issued or deemed issued or issuable upon conversion or exercise of any equity-linked securities (as defined herein) or rights issued or deemed issued, by the Company in connection with or in relation to the consummation of the initial Business Combination, excluding any Class A ordinary shares or equity-linked securities exercisable for or convertible into Class A ordinary shares issued, deemed issued, or to be issued, to any seller in the initial Business Combination and any Private Placement Warrants issued to the Company’s Sponsor, its affiliates or any member of the Company’s management team upon conversion of Working Capital Loans. In no event will the Class B ordinary shares convert into Class A ordinary shares at a rate of less than

at $0.10 per warrant upon a minimum of 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption provided that holders will be able to exercise their warrants on a cashless basis prior to redemption and receive that number of shares determined by reference to an agreed table based on the redemption date and the “fair market value” of Class A ordinary shares;

•

if, and only if, the closing price of Class A ordinary shares equals or exceeds $10.00 per Public Share (as adjusted) for any 20 trading days within the 30-trading day period ending three trading days before the Company sends the notice of redemption to the warrant holders; and

•

if the closing price of the Class A ordinary shares for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which the Company sends the notice of redemption to the warrant holders is less than $18.00 per share (as adjusted), the Private Placement Warrants must also be concurrently called for redemption on the same terms as the outstanding Public Warrants, as described above.

On March 18, 2021, we consummated our Initial Public Offering of 12,000,000 Units, at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $120.0 million, and incurring offering costs of approximately $7.1 million, of which $4.5 million was for deferred underwriting commissions (see Note 3 to our condensed financial statements). We granted the underwriter a option to purchase up to an additional 1,800,000 Units at the Initial Public Offering price to cover over-allotments, if any. On April 29, 2021, the underwriters partially exercised the over-allotment option, and the closing of the issuance and sale of the additional 754,784 Over-Allotment Units occurred on May 3, 2021. The issuance by the Company of the Over-Allotment Units at a price of $10.00 per unit resulted in total gross proceeds of approximately $7.5 million.

Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, we consummated the Private Placement of 440,000 units, at a price of $10.00 per Private Placement Unit with the Sponsor, generating gross proceeds of $4.4 million (see Note 4 to our condensed financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form for the year ended December 31, 2021). If the over-allotment option is exercised in full, the Sponsor will purchase an additional 36,000 Private Placement Units. Simultaneously with the issuance and sale of the Option Units, the Company consummated the private placement with the Sponsor of 15,096 Additional Private Placement Units, generating total proceeds of $150,960.

Upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering and the Private Placement, approximately $120.0 million ($10.00 per Unit) of the net proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and certain of the proceeds of the Private Placement were placed in a Trust Account, located in the United States with Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company acting as trustee, and will be invested only in United States “government securities” within the meaning of Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act, having a maturity of 185 days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule promulgated under the Investment Company Act which invests only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations, as determined by us, until the earlier of: (i) the completion of a Business Combination and (ii) the distribution of the Trust Account as described below. In addition, the Sponsor and certain investors have advanced an aggregate amount of approximately $360,000 into the Trust Account to cover for the over-allotment option, if exercised. If the over-allotment option is not exercised, the excess funds will be returned to such related parties. Upon partial exercise of the over-allotment, on May 4, 2021, the Company returned excess cash of $209,040 to the related parties.

If we are unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, we will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up; (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem the Public Shares, at a price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to us to pay our income taxes, if any (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses) divided by the number of the then-outstanding Public Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish Public Shareholders’ rights as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any); and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the remaining shareholders and the board of directors, liquidate and dissolve, subject in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii), to our obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. There will be no redemption rights or liquidating distributions with respect to our warrants, which will expire worthless if we fail to consummate a Business Combination within the Combination Period.

We have neither engaged in any operations (other than searching for a Business Combination after our Initial Public Offering) nor generated any revenues to date. Our entire activity since inception up to June 30, 2022 related to our formation, the preparation for the Initial Public Offering, and since the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the search for a prospective initial Business Combination. We will not be generating any operating revenues until the closing and completion of our initial Business Combination, at the earliest. We generate non-operating income in the form of income from investments held in the Trust Account, and change in fair value of warrant liability. We incur expenses as a result of being a public company (for legal, financial reporting, accounting and auditing compliance), as well as for due diligence expenses in our search for and completion of a Business Combination.

For the three months ended June 30, 2022, we had net income of approximately $201,000, which consisted of approximately $401,000 of gain from changes in fair value of derivative warrant liabilities and approximately $172,000 in income from investments held in the Trust Account, partially offset by approximately $372,000 of general and administrative expenses.

For the three months ended June 30, 2021, we had we had net income of approximately $474,000 which consisted of approximately $680,000 of gain from changes in fair value of derivative warrant liabilities and approximately $4,000 in income from investments held in the Trust Account, partially offset by approximately $195,000 of general and administrative expenses, and a expense of approximately $16,000 related to offering costs for derivative warrant liabilities.

For the six months ended June 30, 2022, we had net income of approximately $1.7 million, which consisted of approximately $2.2 million of gain from changes in fair value of derivative warrant liabilities and approximately $185,000 in income from investments held in the Trust Account, partially offset by approximately $665,000 of general and administrative expenses.

For the period from January 8, 2021 (inception) through June 30, 2021, we had we had net income of approximately $728,000, which consisted of approximately $1.3 million of gain from changes in fair value of derivative warrant liabilities and approximately $4,000 in income from investments held in the Trust Account, partially offset by approximately $305,000 of general and administrative expenses, and a expense of approximately $315,000 related to offering costs for derivative warrant liabilities.

We continue to evaluate the impact of the pandemic and have concluded that the specific impact is not readily determinable as of the date of the condensed balance sheets. The condensed financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

This management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our condensed financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of our condensed financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities in our condensed financial statements. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and judgments, including those related to fair value of financial instruments and accrued expenses. We base our estimates on historical experience, known trends and events and various other factors that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. The Company determined that there have been no material changes to the critical accounting policies disclosed in our Annual Report on Form for the period ended December 31, 2021, filed with the SEC on March 31, 2022.

As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we did not have any sheet arrangements as defined in Item 303(a)(4)(ii) of Regulation

The Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”) contains provisions that, among other things, relax certain reporting requirements for qualifying public companies. We qualify as an “emerging growth company” and under the JOBS Act are allowed to comply with new or revised accounting pronouncements based on the effective date for private (not publicly traded) companies. We are electing to delay the adoption of new or revised accounting standards, and as a result, we may not comply with new or revised accounting standards on the relevant dates on which adoption of such standards is required for growth companies. As a result, the condensed financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with new or revised accounting pronouncements as of public company effective dates.

Additionally, we are in the process of evaluating the benefits of relying on the other reduced reporting requirements provided by the JOBS Act. Subject to certain conditions set forth in the JOBS Act, if, as an “emerging growth company,” we choose to rely on such exemptions we may not be required to, among other things, (i) provide an auditor’s attestation report on our system of internal controls over financial reporting pursuant to Section 404, (ii) provide all of the compensation disclosure that may be required of growth public companies under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, (iii) comply with any requirement that may be adopted by the PCAOB regarding mandatory audit firm rotation or a supplement to the auditor’s report providing additional information about the audit and the condensed financial statements (auditor discussion and analysis) and (iv) disclose certain executive compensation related items such as the correlation between executive compensation and performance and comparisons of the CEO’s compensation to median employee compensation. These exemptions will apply for a period of five years following the completion of our Initial Public Offering or until we are no longer an “emerging growth company,” whichever is earlier.

We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule of the Exchange Act and are not required to provide the information otherwise required under this item.

 

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2022, as such term is defined in Rules and under the Exchange Act. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that during the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2022.

Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2022 covered by this Quarterly Report on Form that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting, except for the remediation of the material weakness discussed below during the quarter ended June 30, 2022.

We recognize the importance of the control environment as it sets the overall tone for the Company and is the foundation for all other components of internal control. Consequently, we designed and implemented remediation measures to address the material weakness previously identified in fiscal year 2021 and reported in our previous periodic filings with the SEC on Form 10-K and Form 10-Q, and enhanced our internal control over financial reporting. In light of the material weakness, we enhanced our processes and the related internal controls to identify and appropriately apply applicable accounting requirements to better evaluate and understand the nuances of the complex accounting standards that apply to our condensed financial statements, including providing enhanced access to accounting literature, research materials and documents and increased communication among our personnel and third-party professionals with whom we consult regarding complex accounting applications. The foregoing actions, which we believe remediated the material weakness in internal control over financial reporting, were completed prior to June 30, 2022.
