NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 2021
(Unaudited)
Note 1 — Description of Organization and Business Operations
Greenrose Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) was incorporated in Delaware on August 26, 2019. The Company was formed for the purpose of entering into a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities (the “Business Combination”).
The Company is an early stage and emerging growth company and, as such, the Company is subject to all of the risks associated with early stage and emerging growth companies.
On March 12, 2021, the Company entered into definitive agreements to acquire four cannabis companies. The companies are Shango Holdings Inc. (Shango), Futureworks LLC (d/b/a The Health Center), Theraplant, LLC, and True Harvest, LLC. See Note 9 - Initial Business Combination for more information. As part of the acquisition, the company formed wholly owned subsidiaries to effect the business combinations: i) GNRS NV Merger Sub, Inc., a Nevada corporation on March 10, 2021, ii) GNRS CT Merger Sub, LLC, a Connecticut limited liability company on March 5, 2021, iii) Futureworks Holdings, Inc. a Delaware corporation on March 11, 2021, and iv) True Harvest Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation on March 10, 2021.
As of March 31, 2021, the Company had not commenced any operations. All activity through March 31, 2021 relates to the Company’s formation, the initial public offering (“Initial Public Offering”), which is described below, and identifying a target company or companies for a Business Combination. The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of a Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company generates non-operating income in the form of interest income from the proceeds derived from assets held in the Trust Account, interest expense from the amortization of the debt discount on our promissory note and recognizes changes in the fair value of derivative liabilities as other income (expense).
The registration statement for the Company’s Initial Public Offering was declared effective on February 10, 2020. On February 13, 2020, the Company consummated the Initial Public Offering of 15,000,000 units (the “Units” and, with respect to the shares of common stock included in the Units sold, the “Public Shares”), generating gross proceeds of $150,000,000, which is described in Note 3.
Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the sale of 300,000 units (the “Private Units”) and 1,500,000 warrants (the “Private Warrants” and, together with the Private Units, the “Private Securities”) at a price of $10.00 per Private Unit and $1.00 per Private Warrant in a private placement to Greenrose Associates, LLC (the “Sponsor”) and Imperial Capital, LLC (“Imperial”), generating gross proceeds of $4,500,000, which is described in Note 4.
Following the closing of the Initial Public Offering on February 13, 2020, an amount of $150,000,000 ($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 Securities was placed in a trust account (the “Trust Account”) located in the United States, which will be only 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 180 days or less or in any open-ended investment company that holds itself out as a money market fund selected by the Company meeting the conditions of Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act, as determined by the Company, until the earlier of: (i) the completion of a Business Combination or (ii) the distribution of the funds in the Trust Account to the Company’s stockholders, as described below.
On February 14, 2020, the underwriters notified the Company of their intention to exercise their over-allotment option in full. As such, on February 14, 2020, the Company consummated the sale of an additional 2,250,000 Units, at $10.00 per Unit, and the sale of an additional 30,000 Private Units, at $10.00 per Private Unit, and 150,000 Private Warrants, at $1.00 per Private Warrant, generating total gross proceeds of $22,950,000. A total of $22,500,000 of the net proceeds was deposited into the Trust Account, bringing the aggregate proceeds held in the Trust Account to $172,500,000.
Transaction costs amounted to $4,419,274 consisting of $3,450,000 of underwriting fees and $969,274 of other offering costs.
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 Securities, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be applied generally toward consummating a Business Combination. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to complete a Business Combination successfully. The Company must complete a Business Combination having an aggregate fair market value of at least 80% of the assets held in the Trust Account (excluding taxes payable on income earned on the Trust Account) at the time of the agreement to enter into an initial Business Combination. The Company will only complete a Business Combination if the post-transaction company owns or acquires 50% or more of the outstanding voting securities of the target or otherwise acquires a controlling interest in the target sufficient for it not to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act.

The Company will provide 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 ($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 franchise and income tax obligations). There will be no redemption rights upon the completion of a Business Combination with respect to the Company’s warrants.
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, 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 legal 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 legal 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 Company’s Sponsor and Imperial have agreed to vote their Founder’s Shares (as defined in Note 5), Private Shares (as defined in Note 4), and any Public Shares purchased during or after the Initial Public Offering in favor of approving a Business Combination and not to convert any shares in connection with a stockholder vote to approve a Business Combination or sell any shares to the Company in a tender offer in connection with 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 don’t vote at all.
The Sponsor and Imperial have agreed (a) to waive their redemption rights with respect to their Founder’s Shares, Private Shares and Public Shares held by it in connection with the completion of a Business Combination, (b) to waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to the Founder’s Shares and Private Shares if the Company fails to consummate a Business Combination, and (c) not to propose an amendment to the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation that would affect a public stockholders’ ability to convert or sell their shares to the Company in connection with a Business Combination or affect the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to redeem 100% of its Public Shares if the Company does not complete a Business Combination, 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 August 13, 2021 (subject to its right to extend the period of time to consummate a Business Combination for up to an additional three months if the Sponsor agrees to deposit $569,250 in the Trust Account for each one month extension) to complete a Business Combination (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 franchise and income taxes, 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), subject to applicable law, 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 of (ii) and (iii) above) 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.

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 $10.00 per Public Share, except as to any claims by a third party who executed a valid and enforceable agreement with the Company waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind they may have in or to any monies held in the Trust Account and except as to any claims under the Company’s indemnity of the underwriters of 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, none of the Company’s officers or directors, the Sponsor, Imperial or their respective officers, directors, shareholder or members (collectively, the “Insiders”) will be responsible to the extent of any liability for such third party claims. The Company will seek to reduce the possibility that the Insiders will have to indemnify the Trust Account due to claims of creditors by endeavoring to have all vendors, service providers, 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.
Risks and Uncertainties
Management continues to evaluate 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 these financial statements. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Liquidity and Going Concern
As of March 31, 2021, the Company had cash of $771,521 held outside of the Trust Account, total current liabilities of $847,706 which excludes franchise taxes payable of $50,000, of which such amount will be paid from interest earned on the Trust Account. For the three months ended March 31, 2021, we incurred a net loss of $784,951 and used $726,028 cash from operating activities.
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 will need to raise additional capital through loans or additional investments from its Sponsor, shareholders, 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 on commercially acceptable terms, if at all. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern through August 13, 2021, 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 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.
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going-concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the outcome of the uncertainty related to our ability to continue as a going concern.

The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”), and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the independent registered public accounting firm attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, 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.
Further, Section 102(b)(l) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period, which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of the Company’s financial statements with another public company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of 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 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 financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. The Company did not have any cash equivalents as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020.
Marketable Securities Held in Trust Account
At March 31, 2021, substantially all of the assets held in the Trust Account were held in money market funds which are invested in U.S. Treasury securities.
Derivative Liabilities
The Company accounts for warrants as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the instruments’ 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 instruments are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and whether the instruments meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the instruments are indexed to the Company’s own common shares and whether the instrument holders could potentially require “net cash settlement” in a circumstance outside of the Company’s control, among other conditions for equity classification. This assessment, which requires the use of professional judgment, is conducted at the time of warrant issuance and as of each subsequent quarterly period end date while the instruments are outstanding.
For issued or modified instruments that meet all of the criteria for equity classification, the instruments are required to be recorded as a component of additional paid-in capital at the time of issuance. For issued or modified instruments that do not meet all the criteria for equity classification, the instruments are required to be recorded at their initial fair value on the date of issuance, and each balance sheet date thereafter. Changes in the estimated fair value of the instruments are recognized as a non-cash gain or loss on the statements of operations. The fair value of the instruments was estimated using a Black-Scholes model.
Common Stock Subject to Possible Redemption
The Company accounts for its common stock subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in ASC Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” 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 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, common stock subject to possible redemption is presented at redemption value as temporary equity, outside of the stockholders’ equity section of the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Income Taxes
The Company follows the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes under ASC 740 “Income Taxes.” Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statements carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that included the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

ASC 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. There were no unrecognized tax benefits and no amounts accrued for interest and penalties as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020. 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 is subject to income tax examinations by major taxing authorities since inception.
The Company’s currently taxable income primarily consists of interest income on the Trust Account. The Company’s general and administrative costs are generally considered start-up costs and are not currently deductible. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company recorded no income tax expense.
Net Income (Loss) Per Common Share
Net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. The Company applies the two-class method in calculating earnings per share. Shares of common stock subject to possible redemption at March 31, 2021, which are not currently redeemable and are not redeemable at fair value, have been excluded from the calculation of basic net loss per common share since such shares, if redeemed, only participate in their pro rata share of the Trust Account earnings. The Company has not considered the effect of warrants sold in the Initial Public Offering and the private placement to purchase 19,230,000 shares of common stock in the calculation of diluted loss per share, since the inclusion of such warrants would be anti-dilutive. There were no dilutive securities for the period ended December 31, 2020 or December 31, 2019. These amounts are not included in the computation of dilutive loss per share because their impact is antidilutive.
Reconciliation of Net Income (Loss) per Common Share
The Company’s net income (loss) is adjusted for the portion of income that is attributable to common stock subject to possible redemption, as these shares only participate in the earnings of the Trust Account and not the income or losses of the Company. Accordingly, basic and diluted loss per common share is calculated as follows:

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 and management believes the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such accounts.
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.
Note 3 — Public Offering
Pursuant to the Initial Public Offering, the Company sold 17,250,000 Units, which includes a full exercise by the underwriters of their over-allotment option in the amount of 2,250,000 Units, at a price of $10.00 per Unit. Each Unit consists of one share of common stock and one warrant (“Public Warrant”). Each Public Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share of common stock at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment (see Note 7).
Note 4 — Private Placement
Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Sponsor and Imperial purchased an aggregate of 300,000 Private Units at a price of $10.00 per Private Unit and 1,500,000 Private Warrants at a price of $1.00 per Private Warrant, for an aggregate purchase price of $4,500,000. The Sponsor purchased 200,000 Private Units and 1,000,000 Private Warrants and Imperial purchased 100,000 Private Units and 500,000 Private Warrants. As a result of the underwriters’ election to fully exercise their over-allotment option on February 14, 2020, the Sponsor and Imperial purchased an additional 30,000 Private Units, at a purchase price of $10.00 per Private Unit, and 150,000 Private Warrants, at a purchase price of $1.00 per Private Warrant, for an aggregate purchase price of $450,000. Each Private Unit consists of one share of common stock (“Private Share”) and one warrant. Each Private Warrant is exercisable to purchase one share of common stock at an exercise price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment (see Note 7). The proceeds from the Private Securities were 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 proceeds from the sale of the Private Securities will be used to fund the redemption of the Public Shares (subject to the requirements of applicable law), and the Private Shares will expire worthless.

Founder’s Shares
In August 2019, the Sponsor purchased 4,312,500 shares (the “Founder’s Shares”) of the Company’s common stock for an aggregate price of $25,000. The Founder’s Shares included an aggregate of up to 562,500 shares subject to forfeiture by the Sponsor to the extent that the underwriters’ over-allotment was not exercised in full or in part, so that the Sponsor would collectively own 20% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares after the Initial Public Offering (assuming the Sponsor did not purchase any Public Shares in the Initial Public Offering and excluding the Private Shares underlying the Private Securities). On February 14, 2020, as a result of the underwriters’ election to fully exercise their over-allotment option, 562,500 Founder’s Shares are no longer subject to forfeiture.
The Sponsor has agreed that, subject to certain limited exceptions, it will not transfer, assign or sell any of the Founder’s Shares until (i) with respect to 50% of the Founder’s Shares, for a period ending on the earlier of the one-year anniversary of the date of the consummation of the Business Combination and the date on which the closing price of the Company’s common stock equals or exceeds $12.50 per share (as adjusted for share splits, share dividends, reorganizations and recapitalizations) for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period following the consummation of the Business Combination and (ii) with respect to the remaining 50% of the Founder’s Shares, for a period ending on the one-year anniversary of the date of the consummation of the Business Combination, or earlier if, subsequent to the Business Combination, the Company consummates a liquidation, merger, stock exchange or other similar transaction which results in all of its stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of common stock for cash, securities or other property. The limited exceptions include transfers, assignments or sales (i) to the Company’s or Sponsor’s officers, directors, consultants or their affiliates, (ii) to an entity’s members upon its liquidation, (iii) to relatives and trusts for estate planning purposes, (iv) by virtue of the laws of descent and distribution upon death, (v) pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order, (vi) to the Company for no value for cancellation in connection with the consummation of a Business Combination, or (vii) in connection with the consummation of a Business Combination at prices no greater than the price at which the shares were originally purchased, in each case (except for clause (vi) or with the Company’s prior consent) where the transferee agrees to the terms of the escrow agreement and to be bound by these transfer restrictions.
In addition, the Sponsor has agreed not to sell, transfer, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of all or any part of the Founder’s Shares unless, prior to (a) a registration statement on the appropriate form under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws with respect to the Founder’s Shares proposed to be transferred shall then be effective or (b) the Company has received an opinion from counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company, that such registration is not required because such transaction is exempt from registration under the Securities Act and the rules promulgated by the SEC thereunder and with all applicable state securities laws.
Advances — Related Party
As of December 31, 2020, the Sponsor had advanced an aggregate of $631,366 on the Company’s behalf to cover certain expenses (the “Advances”). An additional $164,753 was advanced as of February 2020. The Advances were non-interest bearing and due on demand. Total advances of $796,119 were repaid on March 9, 2020.
Related Party Loans
In addition, in order to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor, or certain of the Company’s officers and directors or their affiliates 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. Except for the foregoing, the terms of such Working Capital Loans, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such 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 $2,000,000 of the Working Capital Loans may be convertible into units at a price of $10.00 per unit and/or warrants at a price of $1.00 per warrant. The units would be identical to the Private Units and the warrants would be identical to the Private Warrants.

On March 26, 2020, the Company issued an unsecured promissory note (the “2020 Note”) in the principal amount of $1,000,000 to the Sponsor. The Note is non-interest bearing and payable upon the consummation of a Business Combination. Up to $1,000,000 of such loans may be convertible into units at a price of $10.00 per unit and/or warrants at a price of $1.00 per warrant. The units would be identical to the Private Units and the warrants would be identical to the Private Warrants.
On January 29, 2021, the Company issued an unsecured promissory note (the “2021 Note”) in the principal amount of $1,000,000 to the Sponsor. The Note is non-interest bearing and payable upon the consummation of a Business Combination. Up to $1,000,000 of such loans may be convertible into units at a price of $10.00 per unit and/or warrants at a price of $1.00 per warrant. The units would be identical to the Private Units and the warrants would be identical to the Private Warrants.
The Company assessed the provisions of the convertible promissory note under ASC 815-15. The derivative component of the obligation is initially valued and classified as a derivative liability with an offset to a discount on the promissory note. The discount will be amortized over the life of the Note. For the three months ended March 31, 2021, $486,338 was included within interest expense. To calculate the value of the embedded derivative we utilized a “with” and “without” approach. In the “with” scenario we valued the convertible promissory notes using a Black-Scholes model as it was determined that on a business combination, a holder would likely convert into private warrants, which were themselves valued using a Black-Scholes model and are considered to be a Level 3 fair value measurement (see Note 8). In the “without” scenario, we valued the repayment of the notional value of the convertible promissory note using a risk-adjusted discounted cash flow model. The primary unobservable inputs utilized in determining the fair value of the conversion option are volatility and credit spread.
For the 2021 Note, the assumptions used to value the conversion option were consistent with those utilized in the Company’s Black-Scholes valuation for private warrants and are detailed below:
January 29, 2021 | March 31, 2021(2) | |||||||

Note 6 — Commitments
Registration Rights
Pursuant to a registration rights agreement entered into on February 11, 2020, the holders of the Founder’s Shares, Private Units, Private Warrants, and any units or warrants that may be issued upon conversion of Working Capital Loans (and all underlying securities) are entitled to registration rights. The holders of the majority of these securities are entitled to make up to two demands that the Company register such securities. The holders of the majority of the Founder’s Shares can elect to exercise these registration rights at any time commencing three months prior to the date on which the Founder’s Shares are to be released from escrow. The holders of a majority of the Private Units or units issued in payment of Working Capital Loans made to the Company (or underlying securities) can elect to exercise these registration rights at any time commencing after the Company consummates a Business Combination. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, Imperial may only make a demand on one occasion and only during the five-year period beginning on the effective date of the Initial Public Offering. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to the consummation of a Business Combination; provided, however, that Imperial may participate in a “piggy-back” registration only during the seven-year period beginning on the effective date of the Initial Public Offering. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.
Underwriting Agreement
The Initial Public Offering underwriting agreement provides that in the event the Company completes a financing transaction similar to the Initial Public Offering or Business Combination, or enters into a statement or letter of intent that results in such a transaction, within 18 months following its termination, Imperial shall be entitled to receive any expense reimbursement due to it along with payment in full of its applicable fee of either (i) 2% of the gross proceeds of the offering, of which 1% will be in cash and 1% will be in equity of the Company for a financing transaction, or (ii) an amount equal to 5% of the face amount of any equity securities and 3% of the face amount of any debt sold or arranged as part of the Business Combination (exclusive of any applicable finders’ fees which might become payable). Additionally, Imperial has the right to act as a book-runner and managing underwriter for all underwritten follow-on offerings for 18 months following completion of the Initial Public Offering and the right to approve any co-lead managing underwriter or co-book runner.
Business Combination Marketing Agreement
The Company has engaged Imperial as an advisor in connection with a Business Combination to assist the Company in holding meetings with its shareholders to discuss the potential Business Combination and the target business’ attributes, introduce the Company to potential investors that are interested in purchasing the Company’s securities in connection with a Business Combination, assist the Company in obtaining shareholder approval for the Business Combination and assist the Company with its press releases and public filings in connection with the Business Combination. The Company will pay Imperial a cash fee for such services upon the consummation of a Business Combination in an amount equal to 4.5% of the gross proceeds of Initial Public Offering, or $7,762,500 (exclusive of any applicable finders’ fees which might become payable); provided that up to 20% of the fee may be allocated at the Company’s sole discretion to other FINRA members that assist the Company in identifying and consummating a Business Combination.
Additionally, the Company has agreed to pay Imperial a cash fee for assisting it in obtaining financing for the Business Combination in an amount equal to 5% of the face amount of any equity securities and 3% of the face amount of any debt sold or arranged as part of the Business Combination (exclusive of any applicable finders’ fees which might become payable).

Note 7 — Stockholders’ Equity
Preferred Stock — On February 10, 2020, the Company amended its certificate of incorporation such that the Company is authorized to issue up to 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock with a par value of $0.0001 per share with such designation, rights and preferences as may be determined from time to time by the Company’s board of directors. At March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, there were no shares of preferred stock issued or outstanding.
Common Stock — On February 10, 2020, the Company amended its certificate of incorporation such that the Company is authorized to issue up to 70,000,000 shares of common stock with a par value of $0.0001 per share. Holders of the common stock are entitled to one vote for each share. At March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, there were 5,558,944 and 5,478,072 shares of common stock issued and outstanding, excluding 16,333,556 and 16,414,428 shares of common stock subject to possible redemption, respectively.
Warrants — The Public Warrants will become exercisable on the later of (a) 30 days after the completion of a Business Combination or (b) 12 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering. No warrants will be exercisable for cash unless the Company has an effective and current registration statement covering the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants and a current prospectus relating to such shares of common stock. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a registration statement covering the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the public warrants is not effective within a specified period following the consummation of a Business Combination, warrant holders may, until such time as there is an effective registration statement and during any period when the Company shall have failed to maintain an effective registration statement, exercise warrants on a cashless basis pursuant to the exemption provided by Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act, provided that such exemption is available. If that exemption, or another exemption, is not available, holders will not be able to exercise their warrants on a cashless basis. The Public Warrants will expire five years after the completion of a Business Combination or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.
Once the warrants become exercisable, the Company may redeem the Public Warrants:
● | in whole and not in part; |
● | at a price of $0.01 per warrant; |
● | upon not less than 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption; |
● | if, and only if, the reported last sale price of the Company’s common stock equals or exceeds $18.00 per share for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period ending on the third business day prior to the notice of redemption to the warrant holders; and | |
● | if, and only if, there is a current registration statement in effect with respect to the shares of common stock underlying the warrants. |
If the Company calls the Public Warrants for redemption, management will have the option to require all holders that wish to exercise the Public Warrants to do so on a “cashless basis,” as described in the warrant agreement.
The exercise price and number of shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances including in the event of a stock dividend, or recapitalization, reorganization, merger, or consolidation. However, the warrants will not be adjusted for issuance of common stock at a price below its exercise price. Additionally, in no event will the Company be required to net cash settle the warrants. If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period and the Company liquidates the funds held in the Trust Account, holders of warrants will not receive any of such funds with respect to their warrants, nor will they receive any distribution from the Company’s assets held outside of the Trust Account with the respect to such warrants. Accordingly, the warrants may expire worthless.
In addition, if (x) the Company issues additional shares of common stock or equity-linked securities for capital raising purposes in connection with the closing of an initial Business Combination at an issue price or effective issue price of less than $9.50 per share of common stock (with such issue price or effective issue price to be determined in good faith by the Company’s board of directors, and in the case of any such issuance to the Sponsor, initial stockholders or their affiliates, without taking into account any Founder Shares held by them prior to such issuance), (y) the aggregate gross proceeds from such issuances represent more than 60% of the total equity proceeds, and interest thereon, available for the funding of an initial Business Combination on the date of the consummation of an initial Business Combination (net of redemptions), and (z) the volume weighted average trading price of the common stock during the 20-trading day period starting on the trading day prior to the day on which the Company consummates an initial Business Combination (such price, the “Market Value”) is below $9.50 per share, the exercise price of the warrants will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 115% of the greater of (i) the Market Value or (ii) the price at which the Company issues the additional shares of common stock or equity-linked securities.

Note 8 — 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:
Level 1: | Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. An active market for an asset or liability is a market in which transactions for the asset or liability occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis. | |
Level 2: | Observable inputs other than Level 1 inputs. Examples of Level 2 inputs include quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities and quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active. |
Level 3: | Unobservable inputs based on our assessment of the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. |
The following table presents information about the Company’s assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis at March 31, 2021, and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation inputs the Company utilized to determine such fair value:
Description | Level | March 31, 2021 | ||||
Assets: | ||||||
Marketable securities held in Trust Account | 1 | $ | 173,473,184 | |||
Liabilities | ||||||
Private warrants liability | 2 | $ | 1,663,200 | |||
Convertible component of convertible promissory note | 3 | $ | 1,343,794 |
The private warrants are identical to the Public Warrants underlying the Units sold in the Initial Public Offering, except that the private warrants and the shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of the private warrants will not be transferable, assignable or salable until after the completion of a Business Combination, subject to certain limited exceptions. Additionally, the private warrants will be exercisable for cash or on a cashless basis, at the holder’s option, and be non-redeemable so long as they are held by the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees. If the private warrants are held by someone other than the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees, the private warrants will be redeemable by the Company and exercisable by such holders on the same basis as the Public Warrants.
The private placement warrants and the convertible component of the convertible promissory note (collectively, the “Derivative Instruments”) were accounted for as liabilities in accordance with ASC 815-40 and are presented within the private warrant liabilities and convertible promissory note, net – related party on our condensed consolidated balance sheet. The instruments are measured at fair value at inception and on a recurring basis, with changes in fair value presented within Change in fair value of private warrant liabilities and Change in fair value of Convertible promissory note, net – related party in the condensed consolidated statement of operations.

Initial Measurement
The Company established the initial fair value for the warrants on February 13, 2020, the date of the Company’s Initial Public Offering, using a Black-Scholes model for the private warrants. The Company allocated the proceeds received from the sale of private warrants first to the warrants based on their fair values as determined at initial measurement, with the remaining proceeds allocated to common stock subject to possible redemption and common stock based on their relative fair values at the initial measurement date. The warrants were classified as Level 3 at the initial measurement date due to the use of unobservable inputs, and they move to a Level 2 when the public warrants begin trading separately on May 11, 2020.
Subsequent Measurement
The private warrants are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. As of March 31, 2020, the private warrants are classified as Level 2 due to the use of an observable market quote in an active market.
As of March 31, 2021, the aggregate values of the private warrants and the convertible component of convertible promissory note were $1,663,200 and $1,343,794, respectively. The fair value assumptions are included in Note 5.

Overview
We are a blank check company incorporated on August 26, 2019 as a Delaware corporation and formed for the purpose of entering into a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or similar Business Combination with one or more businesses or entities. We intend to effectuate our initial Business Combination using cash from the proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and the sale of the Private Units and Private Warrants, our capital stock, debt or a combination of cash, stock, and debt.
On March 12, 2021, the Company entered into definitive agreements to acquire four cannabis companies. The companies are Shango Holdings Inc. (Shango), Futureworks, LLC (d/b/a The Health Center), Theraplant, LLC, and True Harvest, LLC.
Results of Operations
Our only activities from August 26, 2019 (inception) through March 31, 2021 were organizational activities, those necessary to consummate the Initial Public Offering, described below, and identifying a target company for a Business Combination. We do not expect to generate any operating revenues until after the completion of our Business Combination. We generate non-operating income in the form of interest income on marketable securities held in the Trust Account. We are incurring expenses as a result of being a public company (for legal, financial reporting, accounting and auditing compliance), as well as for due diligence expenses.
For the three months ended March 31, 2021, we had net loss of $784,951, which consists of operating costs of $1,176,187, interest expense of $486,338, offset by a decrease in the fair value of private warrants liability of $316,800, a decrease in the fair value of the convertible promissory note of $556,493 and interest income on marketable securities held in the Trust Account of $4,281.
For the three months ended March 31, 2020, we had net income of $1,130,254, which consists of interest income on marketable securities held in the Trust Account of $1,104,572, an increase in the fair value of private warrants liability of $396,000, an increase in the fair value of the convertible promissory note of $84,391, offset by operating costs of $275,379, a provision for income taxes of $174,457 and interest expense of $4,873.
27
Liquidity and Capital Resources
On February 13, 2020, we consummated our Initial Public Offering of 15,000,000 Units at a price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $150,000,000. Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, we consummated the sale of 300,000 Private Units and 1,500,000 Private Warrants to our Sponsor and Imperial Capital and its designee, generating gross proceeds of $4,500,000.
On February 14, 2020, in connection with the underwriters’ exercise of their over-allotment option in full, we consummated the sale of an additional 2,250,000 Units at a price of $10.00 per Unit, generating total gross proceeds of $22,500,000. In addition, we also consummated the sale of an additional 30,000 Private Units at $10.00 per Private Unit and 150,000 Private Warrants at $1.00 per Private Warrant, generating total gross proceeds of $450,000.
As of March 31, 2021, we had marketable securities held in the Trust Account of $173,473,184 (including approximately $973,184 of interest income) consisting of securities held in a money market fund that invests in U.S Treasury securities with a maturity of 180 days or less. Interest income on the balance in the Trust Account may be used by us to pay taxes. Through March 31, 2021, we withdrew $187,700 of interest earned on the Trust Account to pay our taxes.
For the three months March 31, 2021, cash used in operating activities was $726,028, which was comprised of our net loss of $784,951 less interest earned on marketable securities held in the Trust Account of $4,281, a decrease in the fair value of private warrants liability of $316,800, a decrease in the fair value of the convertible promissory note of $556,493, interest expense of $486,338, and changes in operating assets and liabilities of $450,159.
For the three months ended March 31, 2020, cash used in operating activities was $223,188, which was comprised of our net income of $1,130,254, less interest earned on marketable securities held in the Trust Account of $1,104,572, an decrease in the fair value of private warrants liability of $396,000, an decrease in the fair value of the convertible promissory note of $84,391, interest expense of $4,873, and changes in operating assets and liabilities of $226,648.
We intend to use substantially all of the funds held in the Trust Account to acquire a target business and to pay our expenses relating thereto, including a fee payable to Imperial Capital, upon consummation of our initial Business Combination for assisting us in connection with our initial Business Combination. To the extent that our capital stock is used in whole or in part as consideration to effect a Business Combination, the remaining funds held in the Trust Account will be used as working capital to finance the operations of the target business. Such working capital funds could be used in a variety of ways including continuing or expanding the target business’ operations, for strategic acquisitions and for marketing, research and development of existing or new products. Such funds could also be used to repay any operating expenses or finders’ fees which we had incurred prior to the completion of our Business Combination if the funds available to us outside of the Trust Account were insufficient to cover such expenses.
As of March 31, 2021, we had cash of $771,521. We intend to use the funds held outside the Trust Account for identifying and evaluating prospective acquisition candidates, performing business due diligence on prospective target businesses, traveling to and from the offices, plants or similar locations of prospective target businesses, reviewing corporate documents and material agreements of prospective target businesses, selecting the target business to acquire and structuring, negotiating and consummating the Business Combination.
In order to fund working capital deficiencies or finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Insiders, or certain of our officers and directors or their affiliates may, but are not obligated to, loan us funds as may be required. If we complete our initial Business Combination, we would repay such loaned amounts. In the event that our initial Business Combination does not close, we may use a portion of the working capital held outside the Trust Account to repay such loaned amounts but no proceeds from our Trust Account would be used for such repayment. Up to $2,000,000 of notes may be convertible into Private Units, at a price of $10.00 per Private Unit, and/or Private Warrants, at a price of $1.00 per Private Warrant. The units and warrants would be identical to the Private Units and Private Warrants sold in the Private Placement. On March 26, 2020, we issued an unsecured promissory note (the “2020 Note”) in the principal amount of $1,000,000 to the Sponsor. The 2020 Note is non-interest bearing and payable upon the consummation of a Business Combination. The 2020 Note may be converted into units at a price of $10.00 per unit and/or warrants at a price of $1.00 per warrant. The units would be identical to the Private Units and the warrants would be identical to the Private Warrants. On January 29, 2021, we issued an unsecured promissory note (the “2021 Note”) in the principal amount of $1,000,000 to the Sponsor. The 2021 Note is non-interest bearing and payable upon the consummation of a Business Combination. The 2021 Note may be converted into units at a price of $10.00 per unit and/or warrants at a price of $1.00 per warrant. The units would be identical to the Private Units and the warrants would be identical to the Private Warrants.
28
We have concluded that the following conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to meet our financial obligations as they become due. We will need to raise additional capital through loans or additional investments from its Sponsor, shareholders, officers, directors, or third parties. Our officers, directors and Sponsor may, but are not obligated to, loan us funds, from time to time or at any time, in whatever amount they deem reasonable in their sole discretion, to meet our working capital needs. Accordingly, we may not be able to obtain additional financing. If we are unable to raise additional capital, we 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. We cannot provide any assurance that new financing will be available on commercially acceptable terms, if at all. These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern through August 13, 2021, the date that we will be required to cease all operations, except for the purpose of winding up, if a Business Combination is not consummated. These 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 we be unable to continue as a going concern.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no obligations, assets or liabilities which would be considered off-balance sheet arrangements as of March 31, 2021. 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 our Sponsor a monthly fee of $10,000 for office space, utilities and secretarial and administrative support. We began incurring these fees on February 10, 2020 and will continue to incur these fees monthly until the earlier of the completion of the Business Combination and our liquidation.
The Initial Public Offering underwriting agreement provides that in the event we complete a financing transaction similar to the Initial Public Offering or Business Combination, or enter into a statement or letter of intent that results in such a transaction, within 18 months following its termination, Imperial shall be entitled to receive any expense reimbursement due to it along with payment in full of its applicable fee of either (i) 2% of the gross proceeds of the offering, of which 1% will be in cash and 1% will be in equity of the Company for a financing transaction, or (ii) an amount equal to 5% of the face amount of any equity securities and 3% of the face amount of any debt sold or arranged as part of the Business Combination (exclusive of any applicable finders’ fees which might become payable). Additionally, Imperial has the right to act as a book-runner and managing underwriter for all underwritten follow-on offerings for 18 months following completion of the Initial Public Offering and the right to approve any co-lead managing underwriter or co-book runner.
We have engaged Imperial as an advisor in connection with a Business Combination to assist us in holding meetings with our shareholders to discuss the potential Business Combination and the target business’ attributes, introduce us to potential investors that are interested in purchasing our securities in connection with a Business Combination, assist us in obtaining shareholder approval for the Business Combination and assist us with its press releases and public filings in connection with the Business Combination. We will pay Imperial a cash fee for such services upon the consummation of a Business Combination in an amount equal to 4.5% of the gross proceeds of Initial Public Offering, or $7,762,500 (exclusive of any applicable finders’ fees which might become payable); provided that up to 20% of the fee may be allocated at our sole discretion to other FINRA members that assist us in identifying and consummating a Business Combination.
Additionally, we have agreed to pay Imperial a cash fee for assisting us in obtaining financing for the Business Combination in an amount equal to 5% of the face amount of any equity securities and 3% of the face amount of any debt sold or arranged as part of the Business Combination (exclusive of any applicable finders’ fees which might become payable).
29
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:
Derivative Instruments
We account for the Derivative Instruments in accordance with the guidance contained in ASC 815-40-15-7D and 7F under which the Derivative Instruments do not meet the criteria for equity treatment and must be recorded as liabilities. Accordingly, we classify the Derivative Instruments as liabilities at their fair value and adjust the Derivative Instruments to fair value at each reporting period. This liability is subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet date until exercised, and any change in fair value is recognized in our statement of operations. The Private Placement Warrants for periods where no observable traded price was available are valued using a Black-Scholes model. The fair value of the convertible promissory note was estimated using a Black-Scholes model.
Common Stock Subject to Possible Redemption
We account for our common stock subject to possible conversion in accordance with the guidance in 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 Per Common Share
We apply the two-class method in calculating earnings per share. Common stock subject to possible redemption which is not currently redeemable and is not redeemable at fair value, has been excluded from the calculation of basic net income per common share since such shares, if redeemed, only participate in their pro rata share of the Trust Account earnings. Our net income is adjusted for the portion of income that is attributable to common stock subject to possible redemption, as these shares only participate in the earnings of the Trust Account and not our income or losses.
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.
30
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
As of March 31, 2021, 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 bills, notes or bonds with a maturity of 180 days or less or in certain money market funds that invest solely in U.S. Treasury securities. 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 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.
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer (together, the “Certifying Officers”), we carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. In connection with this Report, and in light of the restatement of our financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020, our Certifying Officers reevaluated and concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective, due solely to the material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting described below in “Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting”. In light of this material weakness, we performed additional analyses as deemed necessary to ensure that our financial statements were prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Accordingly, management believes that the financial statements included in this Report present fairly in all material respects our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the period presented.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting, as the circumstances that led to the restatement of our year-end financial statements on May 27, 2021 had not yet been identified. Due solely to the events that led to our restatement of our financial statements, management has identified a material weakness in internal controls related to the accounting for warrants issued in connection with our initial public offering, as described in Note 2 to the Notes to Financial Statements entitled “Restatement of Previously Issued Financial Statements” in Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ending December 31, 2020 filed with the SEC on May 27, 2021.
While we have processes to identify and appropriately apply applicable accounting requirements, we plan to enhance our system of evaluating and implementing the accounting standards that apply to our financial statements, including through enhanced analyses by our personnel and third-party professionals with whom we consult regarding complex accounting applications. The elements of our remediation plan can only be accomplished over time, and we can offer no assurance that these initiatives will ultimately have the intended effects.
31
None.
Factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those in this report include the risk factors described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2020 filed with the SEC on May 27, 2021. As of the date of this Report, other than as described below, there have been no material changes to the risk factors disclosed in our Annual Report filed with the SEC.
The securities in which we invest the funds held in the Trust Account could bear a negative rate of interest, which could reduce the value of the assets held in trust such that the per-share redemption amount received by public stockholders may be less than $10.00 per share.
The proceeds held in the Trust Account are invested only in U.S. government treasury obligations with a maturity of 180 days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act, which invest only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations. While short-term U.S. government treasury obligations currently yield a positive rate of interest, they have briefly yielded negative interest rates in recent years. Central banks in Europe and Japan pursued interest rates below zero in recent years, and the Open Market Committee of the Federal Reserve has not ruled out the possibility that it may in the future adopt similar policies in the United States. In the event that we are unable to complete our initial business combination or make certain amendments to our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, our public stockholders are entitled to receive their pro-rata share of the proceeds held in the Trust Account, plus any interest income not released to us, net of taxes payable. Negative interest rates could impact the per-share redemption amount that may be received by public stockholders.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.
On February 13, 2020, we consummated our Initial Public Offering of 15,000,000 Units. The Units sold in the Initial Public Offering were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per unit, generating total gross proceeds of $150,000,000. Imperial Capital, LLC. acted as the sole book running manager and I-Bankers Securities, Inc. as the co-manager of the offering. The securities sold in the offering were registered under the Securities Act on a registration statement on Form S-1 (No. 333-235724). The SEC declared the registration statement effective on February 10, 2020.
Simultaneous with the consummation of the Initial Public Offering, the Sponsor and Imperial consummated the private placement of an aggregate of 300,000 Units at a price of $10.00 per Private Unit, and 1,500,000 warrants at a price of $1.00 per Private Warrant, generating total proceeds of $4,500,000. Each Private Unit consists of one share of common stock (“Private Share”) and one warrant (“Private Warrant”). Each Private Warrant is exercisable to purchase one share of common stock at an exercise price of $11.50 per share. The issuance was made pursuant to the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.
32
The Private Warrants are identical to the warrants underlying the Units sold in the Initial Public Offering, except that the Private Warrants are not transferable, assignable or salable until after the completion of a Business Combination, subject to certain limited exceptions.
On February 14, 2020, the underwriters exercised their over-allotment option in full, resulting in an additional 2,250,000 Units for $22,500,000, less the underwriters’ discount of $450,000. In connection with the underwriters’ exercise of their over-allotment option, the Company also consummated the sale of an additional 30,000 Private Units at $10.00 per Private Unit and the sale of an additional 150,000 Private Warrants at $1.00 per Private Warrant, generating total proceeds of $450,000. A total of $22,500,000 was deposited into the Trust Account.
Of the gross proceeds received from the Initial Public Offering, the full exercise of the over-allotment option and the Private Securities, $172,500,000 was placed in the Trust Account.
We paid a total of $3,450,000 underwriting discounts and commissions and $969,274 for other costs and expenses related to the Initial Public Offering.
For a description of the use of the proceeds generated in our Initial Public Offering, see Part I, Item 2 of this Quarterly Report.
