NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1—Description of Organization, Business Operations and Basis of Presentation

Health Assurance Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) was incorporated as a Delaware corporation on September 8, 2020. The Company’s initial stockholders were: HAAC Sponsor, LLC (the “Sponsor”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of General Catalyst Group X—Early Venture, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, Health Assurance Economy Foundation, a charitable foundation (“Foundation”), and any other holders of Alignment Shares (as described in Note 6) immediately prior to the offering, collectively, “Initial Stockholders.”

The Company was formed for the purpose of effectuating a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities (herein referred to as “Initial Business Combination”). The Company has not selected any business combination target and it has not, nor has anyone on the Company’s behalf, initiated any substantive discussions, directly or indirectly, with any business combination target. The Company will not be limited to a particular industry or geographic region in its identification and acquisition of a target company.

The Company’s management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds from its initial public offering (the “Initial Public Offering”) of its securities called Stakeholder Aligned Initial Listing Securities, or SAIL^SM Securities (“SAIL^SM Securities”), although substantially all of the net proceeds of the Initial Public Offering are intended to be generally applied toward completing an Initial Business Combination. Furthermore, there is no assurance that the Company will be able to complete an Initial Business Combination.

As of March 31, 2021, the Company had not commenced any operations. All activity for the period from September 8, 2020 (inception) through March 31,2021 relates to the Company’s formation and the initial public offering (the “Initial Public Offering”), described below, and since the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the search for a prospective initial Business Combination. The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of its initial Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company will generate non-operating income in the form or interest income from the proceeds derived from the Initial Public Offering (as defined below).

The registration statement for the Company’s Initial Public Offering was declared effective on November 12, 2020. On November 17, 2020, the Company consummated the Initial Public Offering of 52,500,000 of its securities called Stakeholder Aligned Initial Listing Securities, or SAIL^SM Securities (“SAIL^SM Securities”), including 2,500,000 SAIL^SM Securities as a result of the underwriters’ exercise in part of their over-allotment option. The SAIL^SM Securities were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per SAIL^SM Security, generating gross proceeds of $525.0 million, and incurring offering costs of approximately $29.8 million, inclusive of approximately $18.4 million in deferred underwriting commissions (Note 3).

Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the private placement (“Private Placement”) of 11,666,666 warrants (each, a “Private Placement Warrant” and collectively, the “Private Placement Warrants”), including 333,333 Private Placement Warrants as a result of the underwriters’ exercise in part of their over-allotment option, at a price of $1.50 per Private Placement Warrant in a private placement with the Sponsor and certain directors of the Company (the “Private Placement Warrants Purchasers”), generating gross proceeds of $17.5 million (Note 4).

Upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering  and the Private Placement, $525.0 million ($10.00 per SAIL^SM Security) of the net proceeds of the sale of the SAIL^SM Securities in the Initial Public Offering and 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 held as cash or invested only in U.S. “government securities,” within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act, with a maturity of 185 days or less, or in money market funds meeting certain conditions 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.

Pursuant to stock exchange listing rules, the Company must complete an Initial Business Combination with one or more target businesses having an aggregate fair market value of at least 80% of the net assets held in the Trust Account (as defined below) (excluding the taxes payable on the income earned on the Trust Account) at the time of signing a definitive agreement in connection with the Initial Business Combination. However, the Company will only complete an Initial Business Combination if the post-transaction company owns or acquires 50% or more of the voting securities of the target or otherwise is not required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company of Act 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”).

The Company, after signing a definitive agreement for an Initial Business Combination, will either (i) seek stockholder approval of the Initial Business Combination at a meeting called for such purpose in connection with which Public Stockholders may seek to redeem their Public Shares, regardless of whether they vote for or against the Initial Business Combination or do not vote at all, for cash equal to their pro rata share of the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account calculated as of two business days prior to the consummation of the Initial Business Combination, including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay its taxes, or (ii) provide the Public Stockholders with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their public shares upon the completion of the Company’s initial business combination at $10.00 per share and the per share interest earned on the funds held in the trust account (net of permitted withdrawals). As a result, such common stock will be recorded at redemption amount and classified as temporary equity upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering, in accordance with FASB, ASC 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” The amount in the Trust Account is initially $10.00 per Public Share. The decision as to whether the Company will seek stockholder approval of the Initial Business Combination or will allow stockholders to sell their shares in a tender offer will be made by the Company, solely in its discretion, and will be based on a variety of factors such as the timing of the transaction and whether the terms of the transaction would otherwise require the Company to seek stockholder approval. If the Company seeks stockholder approval, it will complete the Initial Business Combination only if a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock voted are voted in favor of the Initial Business Combination. However, in no event will the Company redeem its Public Shares in an amount that would cause its net tangible assets to be less than $5,000,001 immediately prior to or upon consummation of an Initial Business Combination. In such case, the Company would not proceed with the redemption of its Public Shares and the related business combination, and instead may search for an alternate business combination.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation provides that a public stockholder, together with any affiliate of such stockholder or any other person with whom such stockholder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined under Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), will be restricted from redeeming its shares with respect to more than an aggregate of 15% or more of the shares of common stock sold in the Initial Public Offering, without the prior consent of the Company.

The Company will only have 24 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering, or until November 17, 2022 to complete the Initial Business Combination (or such later date as approved by holders of a majority of outstanding shares of common stock of the Company that are voted at a meeting to extend such date, voting together as a single class) (the “Business Combination Period”). If the Company does not complete an Initial Business Combination within this period of time (and stockholders do not approve an amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation to extend this date), it 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, of $10.00, and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the remaining stockholders and the board of directors (the “Board”), liquidate and dissolve, subject in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii), to the Company’s obligations under Delaware law to provide for claims of creditors and in all cases subject to the other requirements of applicable law.

The Initial Stockholders, officers and directors have entered into a letter agreement with the Company, pursuant to which they have agreed to (i) waive their redemption rights with respect to any Alignment Shares (as defined in Note 4) and Public Shares they hold in connection with the completion of the Initial Business Combination, (ii) waive their redemption rights with respect to any Alignment Shares and Public Shares they hold in connection with a stockholder vote to approve an amendment to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation to modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to redeem 100% of its Public Shares if the Company has not consummated an Initial Business Combination within the Business Combination Period or with respect to any other material provisions relating to stockholders’ rights or pre- combination transaction activity and (iii) waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to any Alignment Shares they hold if the Company fails to complete an Initial Business Combination within the Business Combination Period (although they will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to any Public Shares they hold if the Company fails to complete an Initial Business Combination within the Business Combination Period).

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal accruals) considered for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the period for the three months ended March 31, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the period ending December 31, 2021 or any future period.

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the Form 10KA filed by the Company with the SEC on May 26, 2021.

Emerging Growth Company

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

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

This may make comparison of the Company’s unaudited condensed financial statements with another public company that is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company that has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.

Liquidity and Going Concern

As of March 31, 2021, the Company had $3.1 million in cash and working capital of approximately $1.6 million.

Prior to the Initial Public Offering, our liquidity needs were satisfied through a payment of $25,000 from the Initial Stockholders in exchange for the issuance of the Alignment Shares and proceeds from a loan of $300,000 pursuant to a note agreement from the Company’s Sponsor (the “Note”). We repaid the Note in full on November 18, 2020. Following the consummation of the Initial Public Offering and Private Placement, our liquidity needs have been satisfied with the proceeds from the Private Placement not held in the Trust Account. In addition, in order to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, our Sponsor may, but is not obligated to, provide us with working capital loans. As of the date of this filing, there were no amounts outstanding under any working capital loans.

In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with ASU 2014-15, "Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity's Ability to Continue as a Going Concern," as of March 31, 2021, the Company does not have sufficient liquidity to meet its obligations in the next twelve months. However, management has determined that it has access to funds from the Sponsor that are sufficient to fund its working capital needs until the earlier of the consummation of an Initial Business Combination or a minimum one year from the date of issuance of these unaudited condensed financial statements.

Note 2—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Use of Estimates

The preparation of unaudited condensed 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 unaudited condensed 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 unaudited condensed financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. One of the more significant accounting estimates included in these unaudited condensed financial statements is the determination of the fair value of the warrant liability. Such estimates may be subject to change as more current information becomes available and accordingly the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. 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 does not have any cash equivalents as of March 31, 2021.

Investments Held in Trust Account

The Company’s portfolio of investments is comprised solely of U.S. government securities, within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act, with a maturity of 185 days or less, or investments in money market funds that invest in U.S. government securities, or a combination thereof. The Company’s investments held in the Trust Account are classified as trading securities. Trading securities are presented on the balance sheet at fair value at the end of each reporting period. Gains and losses resulting from the change in fair value of these securities is included in gain on investments held in Trust Account in the accompanying unaudited condensed statement of operations. The estimated fair values of investments held in the Trust Account are determined using available market information.

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 Corporation coverage limit of $250,000. As of March 31, 2021, the Company has not experienced losses on this account and management believes the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such accounts.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received for sale of an asset or paid for transfer of a liability, in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. U.S. GAAP establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value.

The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). These tiers include:

In some circumstances, the inputs used to measure fair value might be categorized within different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In those instances, the fair value measurement is categorized in its entirety in the fair value hierarchy based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the carrying values of cash, prepaid expenses, accounts payable, accrued expenses, franchise tax payable and income taxes payable approximate their fair values due to the short-term nature of the instruments. The Company’s portfolio of investments held in the Trust Account is comprised of investments in U.S. Treasury securities with an original maturity of 185 days or less or investments in money market funds that invest in U.S. government securities, or a combination thereof. The fair value for trading securities is determined using quoted market prices in active markets

Class A Common Stock Subject to Possible Redemption

The shares of Class A common stock subject to mandatory redemption (if any) are classified as liability instruments and are measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable shares of Class A common stock (including shares of Class A common stock that feature redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the Company’s control) are classified as temporary equity. At all other times, shares of Class A common stock are classified as stockholders’ equity. The Company’s Class A common stock features certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to occurrence of uncertain future events, Accordingly, at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, 42,857,615 and 43,070,607 shares of Class A common stock subject to possible redemption, respectively, are presented at redemption value as temporary equity, outside of the stockholders’ equity section of the Company’s condensed balance sheets.

Offering Costs Associated with the Initial Public Offering

Offering costs consisted of legal, accounting, underwriting fees and other costs. Offering costs are 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 allocated to the warrant liabilities are expensed as incurred, presented as non-operating expenses in the statement of operations. Offering costs associated with the Public Shares were charged to stockholders’ equity upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering. The Company classifies deferred underwriting commissions as a long term liability due to the uncertain nature of the closing of a Business Combination and its encumbrance to the Trust Account.

Net Income (Loss) Per Share of Common Stock

Net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted-average number of common stock outstanding during the periods. Share settlement of the Company's warrants to purchase an aggregate of 24,791,666 shares of Class A nonredeemable common stock at a price of $11.50 was presumed for the calculation of diluted earnings per Class A and Class B nonredeemable share because it is more dilutive than the cash settlement alternative. Under this assumption, the contract is settled in common shares, and the effect of the liability classification (change in fair value of derivative warrant liability) is reversed as a numerator adjustment. Potentially dilutive weighted average shares of 773,521 are included in the denominator.

The Company’s statement of operations includes a presentation of income (loss) per share for common stock subject to redemption in a manner similar to the two-class method of income (loss) per share. Net income per share of common stock, basic and diluted for shares of Class A redeemable common stock is calculated by dividing the income earned on investments held in the Trust Account of approximately $152,000, net of applicable taxes and working capital amounts available to be withdrawn from the Trust Account of approximately $32,000, which was a net of approximately $120,000 for the period for the three months ended March 31, 2021, by the weighted average number of Class A redeemable common stock outstanding for the period. There are no securities that can convert into redeemable Class A shares which would cause dilution and share in the earnings.

Net loss per share of common stock, basic for shares of Class B nonredeemable common stock is calculated by dividing the net loss of approximately $2.1 million and $0, less income attributable to Class A redeemable common stock by the weighted average number of Class B nonredeemable common stock outstanding for the period. Net loss per share of common stock, diluted for shares of Class A nonredeemable common stock and Class B nonredeemable common stock, is calculated by dividing the net loss of approximately $3.9 million (including the $1.6 million of the effect of liability classification) less income attributable to Class A redeemable common stock, divided by the weighted average diluted shares of Class A nonredeemable common stock and Class B nonredeemable common stock outstanding for the period.

Derivative Warrant Liabilities

The Company does not use derivative instruments to hedge its exposures to cash flow, market or foreign currency risks. Management evaluates all of the Company’s financial instruments, including issued warrants to purchase its Class A common stock, to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives, pursuant to ASC 480 and ASC 815-15. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is re-assessed at the end of each reporting period.

The Company issued 13,125,000 warrants to purchase Class A common stock to investors in the Company’s Initial Public Offering and simultaneously issued 11,666,666 Private Placement Warrants. All of the Company’s outstanding warrants are recognized as derivative liabilities in accordance with ASC 815-40. Accordingly, the Company recognizes the warrant instruments as liabilities at fair value and adjust the instruments to fair value at each reporting period. The liabilities are 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 fair value of Public Warrants was calculated using an option pricing model. The inputs utilized to calculate the value of an option pricing model are (i) the value of the underlying asset, (ii) the exercise price, (iii) the risk-free rate, (iv) the volatility of the underlying asset, (v) the dividend yield of the underlying asset, and (vi) the assumed time to a liquidity event. The fair value of Private Warrants was calculated using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model. Derivative warrant liabilities are classified as non-current liabilities as their liquidation is not reasonably expected to require the use of current assets or require the creation of current liabilities.

Income Taxes

The Company’s taxable income primarily consists of interest income on the Trust Account. The Company’s general and administrative expenses are generally considered start-up costs and are not currently deductible.

The Company follows the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes under FASB ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes.” Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement 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. As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company had deferred tax assets of approximately $809,000 and $712,000, respectively, with a full valuation allowance against them.

FASB ASC Topic 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. There were no unrecognized tax benefits as of March 31, 2021. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. No amounts were accrued for the payment of 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.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In August 2020, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2020-06, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity (“ASU 2020-06”), which simplifies accounting for convertible instruments by removing major separation models required under current GAAP. The ASU also removes certain settlement conditions that are required for equity-linked contracts to qualify for the derivative scope exception, and it simplifies the diluted earnings per share calculation in certain areas. The Company adopted ASU 2020-06 on January 1, 2021. Adoption of the ASU did not impact the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

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

Note 4—Initial Public Offering

Public SAIL^SM Securities  

On November 17, 2020, the Company consummated its Initial Public Offering of 52,500,000 SAIL^SM Securities at $10.00 per SAIL^SM Security, generating gross proceeds of $525.0 million, including 2,500,000 SAIL^SM Securities as a result of the underwriters’ exercise in part of their over-allotment option. The SAIL^SM Securities were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per SAIL^SM Security, generating gross proceeds of $525.0 million, and incurring offering costs of approximately $29.8 million, inclusive of approximately $18.4 million in deferred underwriting commissions.

Each SAIL^SM Security consists of one share of Class A common stock, $0.0001 par value per share (the “Class A common stock”), and one-fourth of one redeemable warrant (the “Public Warrants”), each whole Public Warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one share of Class A common stock at an exercise price of $11.50 per share.

Note 5—Related Party Transactions

Alignment Shares

On September 24, 2020, an affiliate of the Sponsor paid $22,500, or approximately $0.009 per share, and the Foundation paid $2,500, or approximately $0.009 per share, in exchange for 2,587,500 and 287,500 shares of Class B common stock, respectively (collectively, “Alignment Shares”). Such Alignment Shares held by the affiliate of the Sponsor were subsequently transferred to the Sponsor. In November 2020, the Sponsor transferred 6,469 Alignment Shares to each of the independent directors resulting in the Sponsor holding 2,561,624 Alignment Shares. The number of Alignment Shares issued was determined based on the expectation that such Alignment Shares would represent 20% of the issued and outstanding shares upon completion of the Initial Public Offering. Up to 375,000 of the Alignment Shares were to be forfeited depending on the extent to which the underwriters’ over-allotment was exercised. The Alignment Shares are entitled to (together with the shares of Class B common stock) a number of votes representing 20% of the Company’s outstanding common stock prior to the completion of the Initial Business Combination. The underwriters exercised the over-allotment option in part and the Company consummated the sale of such SAIL^SM Securities on November 17, 2020; thus, 125,000 Alignment Shares were no longer subject to forfeiture.

The Initial Stockholders, directors and executive officers have agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of their Alignment Shares and any of their shares of Class A common stock deliverable upon conversion of the Alignment Shares for 30 days following the completion of an Initial Business Combination. In connection with this arrangement, the Initial Stockholders, officers, and directors have also agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of their Alignment Shares until the earlier to occur of: (i) 30 days after the completion of the Company’s Initial business combination and (ii) the date on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, capital stock exchange or other similar transaction after the Initial Business Combination that results in all of its stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of Class A common stock for cash, securities or other property; except to certain permitted transferees and under certain circumstances as described in the prospectus. Further, in connection with this arrangement, the Sponsor, officers and directors have also agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of their Private Placement Warrants and any shares of Class A common stock issued upon conversion or exercise thereof until 30 days after the completion of the Initial Business Combination, except to permitted transferees. Any permitted transferees will be subject to the same restrictions and other agreements of the Initial Stockholders with respect to any Alignment Shares and Private Placement Warrants.

Private Placement Warrants

Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Private Placement Warrants Purchasers purchased an aggregate of 11,666,666 Private Placement Warrants, including 333,333 Private Placement Warrants as a result of the underwriters’ exercise in part of their over-allotment option, at a price of $1.50 per Private Placement Warrant in a private placement to certain of the Sponsor and certain directors of the Company generating gross proceeds of $17.5 million.

Each whole Private Placement Warrant is exercisable for one whole share of Class A common stock at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment. A portion of the proceeds from the sale of the Private Placement Warrants was added to the proceeds from the Initial Public Offering to be held in the Trust Account. If the Company does not complete a business combination within the Combination Period, then the proceeds will be part of the liquidating distribution to the Public Stockholders and the warrants will expire worthless.

The Initial Stockholders, directors and executive officers have agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of their Alignment Shares and any of their shares of Class A common stock deliverable upon conversion of the Alignment Shares for 30 days following the completion of an Initial Business Combination. In connection with this arrangement, the Initial Stockholders, officers, and directors have also agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of their Alignment Shares until the earlier to occur of: (i) 30 days after the completion of the Company’s Initial business combination and (ii) the date on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, capital stock exchange or other similar transaction after the Initial Business Combination that results in all of its stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of Class A common stock for cash, securities or other property; except to certain permitted transferees and under certain circumstances as described in the prospectus. Further, in connection with this arrangement, the Sponsor, officers and directors have also agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of their Private Placement Warrants and any shares of Class A common stock issued upon conversion or exercise thereof until 30 days after the completion of the Initial Business Combination, except to permitted transferees. Any permitted transferees will be subject to the same restrictions and other agreements of the Initial Stockholders with respect to any Alignment Shares and Private Placement Warrants.

Related Party Loans

On September 24, 2020, the Sponsor agreed to loan the Company up to an aggregate of $300,000 pursuant to an unsecured promissory note (the “Note”) to cover expenses related to the Initial Public Offering. This loan was payable without interest on the earlier of January 31, 2021, or the completion of the Initial Public Offering. No amounts were outstanding under the Note as of March 31, 2021. Through the date of the Initial Public Offering, the Company borrowed $300,000 under the Note. The Company fully repaid the Note on November 18, 2020.

Working Capital Loans

In order to finance transaction costs in connection with an intended Initial Business Combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor or certain of the Company’s officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds as may be required (the “Working Capital Loans”). Up to $1.5 million of such loans may be convertible into Private Placement Warrants at a price of $1.50 per Private Placement Warrants at the option of the lender. The Private Placement Warrants would be identical to the Private Placement Warrants issued to the Sponsor. Except for the forgoing, the terms of such loans, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such loans. The Company has never had borrowings on working capital loans.

Administrative Services and Director Compensation

Commencing on the date that the Company’s securities were first listed on Nasdaq through the earlier of consummation of the Initial Business Combination and the Company’s liquidation, the Company has agreed to pay the Sponsor for office space, secretarial and administrative support provided to members of the Company’s management team $10,000 per month. For the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company incurred $30,000 of expenses for these services included in general and administrative expenses – related party on the accompanying unaudited condensed statement of operations. Amounts payable for such services as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2021 were $50,000 and $30,000, respectively, and included as accrued expenses on the accompanying unaudited condensed balance sheets.

In addition, each independent director receives quarterly cash compensation of $62,500 (or $250,000 in the aggregate per year). For the three months ended March 31, 2021, $271,917 of these director fees are included in general and administrative expenses – related party on the accompanying unaudited condensed statement of operations. Amounts payable for such services were $0 and approximately $99,000 as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, and included as accrued expenses on the accompanying unaudited condensed balance sheets.

In addition, the Sponsor, executive officers and directors, or any of their respective affiliates will be reimbursed for any out-of-pocket 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 to the Sponsor, executive officers or directors, or their affiliates. As of March 31, 2021, no amounts were incurred or paid.

Note 6—Commitments and Contingencies

Registration Rights

The holders of the Alignment Shares, Private Placement Warrants, and Private Placement Warrants that may be issued upon conversion of Working Capital Loans (and any shares of Class A common stock into which such securities may convert and that may be issued upon conversion of Working Capital Loans and upon conversion of the Alignment Shares) are entitled to registration rights pursuant to a registration rights agreement. The initial stockholders and holders of the Private Placement Warrants will be entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short form registration demands, that the Company register such securities for sale under the Securities Act. In addition, these holders will have “piggy-back” registration rights to include their securities in other registration statements filed by the Company. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.

Underwriting Agreement

The Company granted the underwriters a 45-day option to purchase up to 7,500,000 additional SAIL^SM Securities, consisting of 7,500,000 shares of Class A common stock and 1,875,000 redeemable warrants, to cover any over-allotment, at the initial public offering price less the underwriting discounts and commissions. The warrants that would be issued in connection with the over-allotment SAIL^SM Securities are identical to the Public Warrants, subject to certain limited exceptions, and have no net cash settlement provisions. On November 17, 2020, the underwriters exercised the over-allotment option in part to purchase 2,500,000 additional SAIL^SM Securities.

The underwriters were entitled to an underwriting discount of $0.20 per SAIL^SM Security, or $10.0 million in the aggregate, paid upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering. In addition, $0.35 per SAIL^SM Security, or $17.5 million in the aggregate will be payable to the underwriters for deferred underwriting commissions. The deferred fee will become payable to the underwriters from the amounts held in the Trust Account solely in the event that the Company completes a Business Combination, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement.

In connection with the consummation of the sale of SAIL^SM Securities pursuant to the over-allotment option exercised on November 17, 2020, the underwriters were entitled to an aggregate of approximately $0.5 million in fees payable upon closing and additional deferred underwriting commissions of approximately $0.9 million.

Deferred Legal Fees

The Company entered into an agreement to obtain legal advisory services, pursuant to which the Company’s legal counsel agreed to defer their fees until the closing of the Initial Business Combination. The deferred fees will become payable to the legal counsel in the event that the Company completes a Business Combination. As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company recorded an aggregate of approximately $2.8 million and $0 in connection with such arrangement as deferred legal fees in the accompanying condensed balance sheets.

Risks and Uncertainties

Management continues to evaluate the impact of the COVID-19 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 unaudited condensed financial statements. The unaudited condensed financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Note 7— Derivative Warrant Liabilities

As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company has 13,125,000 and 11,666,666 Public Warrants and Private Warrants outstanding, respectively.

No fractional Public Warrants will be issued upon separation of the SAIL^SM Securities and only whole Public Warrants will trade. Each whole Public Warrant entitles the registered holder to purchase one share of Class A common stock at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment as discussed below, at any time commencing on the later of 12 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering and 30 days after the completion of the Initial Business Combination, provided in each case that the Company has an effective registration statement under the Securities Act covering the shares of Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants and a current prospectus relating to them is available (or the Company permits holders to exercise their Public Warrants on a cashless basis under the circumstances specified in the warrant agreement) and such shares are registered, qualified or exempt from registration under the securities, or blue sky, laws of the state of residence of the holder. The Company has agreed that as soon as practicable, but in no event later than twenty (20) business days after the closing of the Initial Business Combination, the Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to file with the SEC a registration statement for the registration, under the Securities Act, of the shares of Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants. The Company will use its best efforts to cause the same to become effective and to maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement, and a current prospectus relating thereto, until the expiration of the warrants in accordance with the provisions of the warrant agreement. If a registration statement covering the shares of Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants is not effective by the sixtieth (60th) business day after the closing of the an Initial Business Combination, warrant holders may, until such time as there is an effective registration statement and during any period when the Company will have failed to maintain an effective registration statement, exercise warrants on a “cashless basis” in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act or another exemption. Notwithstanding the above, if the shares of Class A common stock are at the time of any exercise of a warrant not listed on a national securities exchange such that they satisfy the definition of a “covered security” under Section 18(b)(1) of the Securities Act, the Company may, at its option, require holders of Public Warrants who exercise their warrants to do so on a “cashless basis” in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act and, in the event the Company so elect, it will not be required to file or maintain in effect a registration statement, and in the event the Company does not so elect, it will use its best efforts to register or qualify the shares under applicable blue sky laws to the extent an exemption is not available.

The Public Warrants will expire five years after the completion of an Initial Business Combination, or earlier upon redemption or liquidation. In addition, if (x) the Company issues additional shares of Class A 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 $9.20 per share of Class A common stock (with such issue price or effective issue price to be determined in good faith by the board of directors and, in the case of any such issuance to the Initial Stockholders or its affiliates, without taking into account any shares held by the Initial Stockholders or such affiliates, as applicable, prior to such issuance) (the “Newly Issued Price”) (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 the Initial Business Combination on the date of the consummation of the Initial Business Combination (net of redemptions), and (z) the VWAP of the shares of Class A common stock during the 20 trading day period starting on the trading day prior to the day on which the Company consummates its Initial Business Combination (such price, the “Market Value”) is below $9.20 per share, the exercise price of the warrants will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 115% of the higher of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price, the $18.00 per share redemption trigger price described below will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 180% of the higher of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price, and the $10.00 per share redemption trigger price described below will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to the higher of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price.

The Private Placement Warrants are identical to the Public Warrants, except that the Private Placement Warrants and the shares of Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the Private Placement Warrants will not be transferable, assignable or salable until 30 days after the completion of an Initial Business Combination, subject to certain limited exceptions. Additionally, the Private Placement Warrants will be non-redeemable so long as they are held by the Sponsor or its permitted transferees. If the Private Placement Warrants are held by someone other than the Sponsor or its permitted transferees, the Private Placement Warrants will be redeemable by the Company and exercisable by such holders on the same basis as the Public Warrants.

The Company may also redeem the Public Warrants, in whole and not in part, at a price of $0.01 per warrant: upon a minimum of 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption,

In addition, when the Public Warrants become exercisable, the Company may redeem the outstanding Public Warrants (except with respect to the Private Placement Warrants) in whole and not in part, for the number of shares of Class A common stock determined by reference to the table set forth in the Company’s prospectus relating to the Proposed Offering based on the redemption date and the “fair market value” of the shares of Class A common stock, upon a minimum of 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption and if, and only if, the last sale price of the shares of Class A common stock equals or exceeds $10.00 per share (as adjusted per share splits, share dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) on the trading day prior to the date on which the Company sends the notice of redemption to the Public Warrant holders. The “fair market value” of the shares of Class A common stock is the average last reported sale price of the shares of Class A common stock for the 10 trading days ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which the notice of redemption is sent to the holders of Public Warrants. In no event will the warrants be exercisable in connection with this redemption feature for more than 0.361 shares of Class A common stock per warrant (subject to adjustment).

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.

In no event will the Company be required to net cash settle any warrant.

If the Company is unable to complete a business combination within the Business 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.

Note 8 - Stockholders’ Equity

Class A Common Stock — The Company is authorized to issue 700,000,000 shares of Class A common stock with a par value of $0.0001 per share. As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, there were 52,500,000 shares of Class A common stock outstanding, which includes 42,857,615 and 43,070,607 shares of Class A common stock subject to possible redemption, respectively, which are classified as temporary equity in the accompanying balance sheet.

Class B Common Stock — The Company is authorized to issue 20,000,000 shares of Class B common stock with a par value of $0.0001 per share. Holders of the Company’s Class B common stock are entitled to one vote for each share. As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, 2,625,000 shares of Class B common stock were issued and outstanding.

On the last day of each measurement period (as defined below), which will occur annually over ten fiscal years following consummation of an Initial Business Combination (and, with respect to any measurement period in which there is a change of control or in which the Company liquidates, dissolves or winds up, on the business day immediately prior to such event instead of on the last day of such measurement period), 262,500 Alignment Shares will automatically convert, subject to adjustment as described herein, into shares of the Company’s Class A common stock (“conversion shares”), as follows:

Preferred Stock — The Company is authorized to issue 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share. As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, there were no shares of preferred stock issued or outstanding.

Note 9—Fair Value Measurements

The following tables present information about the Company’s assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis and indicate the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques that the Company utilized to determine such fair value.

Transfers to/from Levels 1, 2, and 3 are recognized at the beginning of the reporting period. The estimated fair value of the Public Warrants transferred from a Level 3 measurement to a Level 1 fair value measurement in January 2021 as the Public Warrants were separately listed and traded in January 2021.

Level 1 instruments include investments in U.S Treasury Securities invested in government securities and, as of March 31, 2021, the Public Warrants. The Company uses inputs such as actual trade data, benchmark yields, quoted market prices from dealers or brokers, and other similar sources to determine the fair value of its investments. The fair value of the Public Warrants at March 31, 2021 is measured utilizing the listed trading price.

As of December 31, 2020, the fair value of Public Warrants was calculated using a Black-Scholes option pricing model. The fair value of Private Warrants as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 was estimated using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model. The inputs utilized to calculate the value of an option pricing model are (i) the value of the underlying asset, (ii) the exercise price, (iii) the risk-free rate, (iv) the volatility of the underlying asset, (v) the dividend yield of the underlying asset, and (vi) the assumed time to a liquidity event.

For the period for the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company recognized a charge to the statement of operations resulting from an decrease in the fair value of liabilities of approximately $1.6 million presented as change in fair value of derivative warrant liabilities on the accompanying unaudited condensed statement of operations.

The estimated fair values of the Private Placement Warrants, and the Public Warrants at December 31, 2020 were determined using Level 3 inputs. Inherent in the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model and the Option Pricing Method are assumptions related to expected stock-price volatility, expected life, risk-free interest rate and dividend yield. The Company estimates the volatility of its Class A common stock warrants based on implied volatility from the Company’s traded warrants and from historical volatility of select peer company’s Class A common stock that matches the expected remaining life of the warrants. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury zero-coupon yield curve on the grant date for a maturity similar to the expected remaining life of the warrants. The expected life of the warrants is assumed to be equivalent to their remaining contractual term. The dividend rate is based on the historical rate, which the Company anticipates remaining at zero.

The following table provides quantitative information regarding Level 3 fair value measurements inputs at their measurement:

The change in the fair value of the derivative warrant liabilities measured with Level 3 inputs for the periods of from December 31, 2020 through March 31, 2021 are summarized as follows:

Note 10—Subsequent Events

Management has evaluated subsequent events that occurred after the balance sheet date to determine if events or transactions occurring through June 15, 2021, the date the financial statements were issued, require potential adjustment to or disclosure in the financial statements and has concluded that all such events that would require recognition or disclosure have been recognized or disclosed.

Overview

We are a blank check company incorporated in Delaware on September 8, 2020 for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities (the “Business Combination”). Our sponsor is HAAC Sponsor, LLC (“Sponsor”).

The registration statement for our Initial Public Offering (“Initial Public Offering”) was declared effective on November 12, 2020. On November 17, 2020, we consummated the Initial Public Offering of 52,500,000 SAIL^SM Securities, including 2,500,000 SAIL^SM Securities as a result of the underwriters’ exercise in part of their over-allotment option. The SAIL^SM Securities were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per SAIL^SM Security, generating gross proceeds of $525.0 million, and incurring offering costs of approximately $29.8 million, inclusive of approximately $18.4 million in deferred underwriting commissions.

Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, we consummated the private placement (“Private Placement”) of 11,666,666 warrants (each, a “Private Placement Warrant” and collectively, the “Private Placement Warrants”), including 333,333 Private Placement Warrants as a result of the underwriters’ exercise in part of their over-allotment option, at a price of $1.50 per Private Placement Warrant in a private placement with our Sponsor and certain directors of our Company (the “Private Placement Warrants Purchasers”), generating gross proceeds of $17.5 million (Note 4).

Upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering  and the Private Placement, $525.0 million ($10.00 per SAIL^SM Security) of the net proceeds of the sale of the SAIL^SM Securities in the Initial Public Offering and 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 held as cash or invested only in U.S. “government securities,” within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act, with a maturity of 185 days or less, or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under the Investment Company Act, which invest 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.

If we are unable to complete a Business Combination within 24 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering, or November 17, 2022 and stockholders do not approve an amendment to the certificate of incorporation to extend this date, 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 per-share price, payable in cash, of $10.00, and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the remaining stockholders and the board of directors (the “Board”), liquidate and dissolve, subject in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii), to our obligations under Delaware law to provide for claims of creditors and in all cases subject to the other requirements of applicable law.

Results of Operations

Our entire activity from September 8, 2020 (inception) through March 31, 2021, was in preparation for an Initial Public Offering, and since our Initial Public Offering, our activity has been limited to the search for a prospective initial Business Combination. We will not generate any operating revenues until the closing and completion of our initial Business Combination.

For the three months ended March 31, 2021, we had a net loss of approximately $2.1 million, which consisted of approximately $1.6 million in change of fair value of derivative warrant liabilities, and approximately $152,000 of gain on investments held in a Trust Account, partially offset $3.6 million of general and administrative expenses, approximately $302,000 of general and administrative expenses – related party, and approximately $32,000 of income tax expense.

Liquidity and Going Concern

As of March 31, 2021, the Company had $3.1 million in cash and working capital of approximately $1.6 million.

Prior to September 30, 2020, our liquidity needs were satisfied through a payment of $25,000 from the Initial Stockholders in exchange for the issuance of the Alignment Shares and proceeds from a loan of $300,000 pursuant to a note agreement from the Company’s Sponsor (the “Note”). We repaid the Note in full on November 18, 2020. Following the consummation of the Initial Public Offering and Private Placement, our liquidity needs have been satisfied with the proceeds from the Private Placement not held in the Trust Account. In addition, in order to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, our Sponsor may, but is not obligated to, provide us with working capital loans. As of the date of this filing, there were no amounts outstanding under any working capital loans.

In connection with our assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with ASU 2014-15, "Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity's Ability to Continue as a Going Concern," as of March 31, 2021, we do not have sufficient liquidity to meet our obligations in the next twelve months. However, we have determined that we have access to funds from our Sponsor that are sufficient to fund our working capital needs until the earlier of the consummation of an Initial Business Combination or a minimum one year from the date of issuance of these unaudited condensed financial statements.

Contractual Obligations

We do not have any long-term debt obligations, capital lease obligations, operating lease obligations, purchase obligations or long-term liabilities, other than for an agreement to pay our Sponsor $10,000 per month for office space, secretarial and administrative support provided to members of our management team. In addition, each independent director will receive quarterly cash compensation of $62,500 (or $250,000 in the aggregate per year).

Critical Accounting Policies

This management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our unaudited condensed financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of these unaudited condensed financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities in our unaudited 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.

Investments Held in the Trust Account

Our portfolio of investments held in the Trust Account is comprised of U.S. government securities, within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act, with a maturity of 185 days or less, or investments in money market funds that invest in U.S. government securities, or a combination thereof. Our investments held in the Trust Account are classified as trading securities. Trading securities are presented on the unaudited condensed balance sheet at fair value at the end of each reporting period. Gains and losses resulting from the change in fair value of these investments are included in income from investments held in Trust Account in the unaudited condensed statement of operations. The estimated fair values of investments held in the Trust Account are determined using available market information.

Class A Common Stock Subject to Possible Redemption

The shares of Class A common stock subject to mandatory redemption (if any) are classified as liability instruments and are measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable shares of Class A common stock (including shares of Class A common stock that feature redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the Company’s control) are classified as temporary equity. At all other times, shares of Class A common stock are classified as stockholders’ equity. The Company’s Class A common stock features certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to occurrence of uncertain future events, Accordingly, at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2021, 42,857,615 and 43,070,607 shares of Class A common stock subject to possible redemption are presented at redemption value as temporary equity, outside of the stockholders’ equity section of the Company’s balance sheet, respectively.

Derivative Warrant Liabilities

We do not use derivative instruments to hedge exposures to cash flow, market or foreign currency risks. We evaluate all of our financial instruments, including issued stock purchase warrants, to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives, pursuant to the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity” (“ASC 480”) and FASB ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging” (“ASC 815”). The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is re-assessed at the end of each reporting period. Derivative warrant liabilities are classified as non-current liabilities as their liquidation is not reasonably expected to require the use of current assets or require the creation of current liabilities.

We issued 13,125,000 warrants to purchase Class A common stock, including Over-Allotment Units, to investors in our Initial Public Offering and issued 11,666,666 Private Placement Warrants. All of our outstanding warrants are recognized as derivative liabilities in accordance with ASC 815. Accordingly, we recognize the warrant instruments as liabilities at fair value and adjust the instruments to fair value at each reporting period. The liabilities are 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 fair value of Public Warrants was calculated using an option pricing model. The inputs utilized to calculate the value of an option pricing model are (i) the value of the underlying asset, (ii) the exercise price, (iii) the risk-free rate, (iv) the volatility of the underlying asset, (v) the dividend yield of the underlying asset, and (vi) the assumed time to a liquidity event. The fair value of Private Warrants was calculated using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model. Derivative warrant liabilities are classified as non-current liabilities as their liquidation is not reasonably expected to require the use of current assets or require the creation of current liabilities.

Net Income (Loss) Per Share of Common Stock

Net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted-average number of common stock outstanding during the periods. Share settlement of our warrants to purchase an aggregate of 24,791,666 shares of Class A nonredeemable common stock at a price of $11.50 was presumed for the calculation of diluted earnings per Class A and Class B nonredeemable share because it is more dilutive than the cash settlement alternative. Under this assumption, the contract is settled in common shares, and the effect of the liability classification (change in fair value of derivative warrant liability) is reversed as a numerator adjustment. Potentially dilutive weighted average share of 773,521 are included in the denominator.

Our unaudited condensed statement of operations includes a presentation of income (loss) per share for common stock subject to redemption in a manner similar to the two-class method of income (loss) per share. Net income per share of common stock, basic and diluted for shares of Class A redeemable common stock is calculated by dividing the income earned on investments held in the Trust Account of approximately $152,000, net of applicable taxes and working capital amounts available to be withdrawn from the Trust Account of approximately $32,000, which was a net of approximately $120,000 for the period for the three-month ended March 31, 2021, by the weighted average number of Class A redeemable common stock outstanding for the period. There are no securities that can convert into redeemable Class A shares which would cause dilution and share in the earnings.

Net loss per share of common stock, basic and diluted for shares of Class B nonredeemable common stock is calculated by dividing the net loss of approximately $2.1 million, less income attributable to Class A redeemable common stock by the weighted average number of Class B nonredeemable common stock outstanding for the period. Net loss per share of common stock, diluted for shares of Class A nonredeemable common stock, as discussed above, and Class B nonredeemable common stock, is calculated by dividing the net loss of approximately $3.9 million (including the $1.6 million of the effect of liability classification) less income attributable to Class A redeemable common stock, divided by the weighted average of Class A nonredeemable common stock and Class B nonredeemable common stock outstanding for the period.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-06, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity (“ASU 2020-06”), which simplifies accounting for convertible instruments by removing major separation models required under current GAAP. The ASU also removes certain settlement conditions that are required for equity-linked contracts to qualify for the derivative scope exception, and it simplifies the diluted earnings per share calculation in certain areas. We adopted ASU 2020-06 on January 1, 2021. Adoption of the ASU did not impact our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

We do not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards if currently adopted would have a material effect on our financial statements.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of March 31, 2021, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as defined in Item 303(a)(4)(ii) of Regulation S-K.

JOBS Act

The Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”) contains provisions that, among other things, relax certain reporting requirements for qualifying public companies. We qualify as an “emerging growth company” and under the JOBS Act are allowed to comply with new or revised accounting pronouncements based on the effective date for private (not publicly traded) companies. We are electing to delay the adoption of new or revised accounting standards, and as a result, we may not comply with new or revised accounting standards on the relevant dates on which adoption of such standards is required for non-emerging growth companies. As a result, the 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 non-emerging growth public companies under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, (iii) comply with any requirement that may be adopted by the PCAOB regarding mandatory audit firm rotation or a supplement to the auditor’s report providing additional information about the audit and the financial statements (auditor discussion and analysis) and (iv) disclose certain executive compensation related items such as the correlation between executive compensation and performance and comparisons of the 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.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and are not required to provide the information otherwise required under this item.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Disclosure controls are procedures that are designed with the objective of ensuring that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act, such as this Quarterly Report, is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time period specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls are also designed with the objective of ensuring that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our management evaluated, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer (our “Certifying Officers”), the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2021, pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) under the Exchange Act. Based upon that evaluation, our Certifying Officers concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of March 31, 2021, 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 analysis as deemed necessary to ensure that our financial statements were prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Accordingly, management believes that the financial statements included in this Quarterly Report present fairly in all material respects our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the period presented.

We do not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all errors and all instances of fraud. Disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met. Further, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all disclosure controls and procedures, no evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures can provide absolute assurance that we have detected all our control deficiencies and instances of fraud, if any. The design of disclosure controls and procedures also is based partly on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2021 covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Our internal control over financial reporting did not result in the proper classification of our warrants. Since first issuance in November 2020, our warrants were accounted for as equity within our balance sheet. On April 12, 2021, the SEC staff issued a statement in which the SEC staff expressed its view that certain terms and conditions common to SPAC warrants may require the warrants to be classified as liabilities on the SPAC’s balance sheet as opposed to equity. After discussion and evaluation, taking into consideration the statement of the SEC staff, we have concluded that our warrants should be presented as liabilities with subsequent fair value remeasurement.

To respond to this material weakness, we have devoted, and plan to continue to devote, significant effort and resources to the remediation and improvement of our internal control over financial reporting for instruments that have an equity and liability component. While we have processes to identify and appropriately apply applicable accounting requirements, we plan to enhance our system of evaluating and implementing the complex accounting standards that apply to our financial statements. Our plans at this time include 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 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.
