Note 1 — Organization and Significant Accounting Policies
Jensyn Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) was incorporated in Delaware on October 8, 2014 as a “blank check” company whose objective is to acquire, through a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or other similar business combination, one or more operating businesses (a “Business Combination”).
At March 31, 2017, the Company had not yet commenced any meaningful operations. All activity through March 31, 2017 relates to the Company’s formation, the initial public offering (“Public Offering”) described below (See Note 2), general corporate matters and identifying and evaluating prospective acquisition candidates. The Company has selected December 31 as its fiscal year-end.
The registration statement for the Company’s Public Offering was declared effective by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 2, 2016 (the “Registration Statement”). The Company intends to finance a Business Combination with proceeds from the $39,000,000 Public Offering and a $2,945,000 private placement (See Note 2). Upon the closing of the Public Offering and the private placement, $40,365,000 was held in a trust account with Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company acting as trustee (the “Trust Account”) as discussed below.
$40,365,000 was initially placed in the Trust Account in the United States at JP Morgan Chase Bank, N.A., maintained by Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as trustee. The funds held in the Trust Account will be invested only in United States government treasury bills, bonds or notes having a maturity of 180 days or less, or in money market funds meeting the applicable conditions under Rule 2a-7 promulgated under the Investment Company Act of 1940 and that invest solely in U.S. treasuries, so that the Company is not deemed to be an investment company under the Investment Company Act. Except with respect to interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account that may be released to the Company to pay income or other tax obligations, the proceeds will not be released from the Trust Account until the earlier of the completion of the initial Business Combination or the redemption of 100% of the outstanding public shares if the Company has not completed a Business Combination in the required time period. The proceeds held in the Trust Account may be used as consideration to pay the sellers of a target business with which the Company completes the initial Business Combination to the extent not used to pay converting stockholders. Any amounts not paid as consideration to the sellers of the target business may be used to finance operations of the target business. At March 31, 2017 the Trust Account consists of investments in United States government treasury bills and money market funds in one financial institution.
The Company has until 18 months from the closing of the Public Offering to consummate the initial Business Combination. However, if the Company anticipates that the initial Business Combination cannot be consummated within 18 months, the Company may extend the period of time to consummate a Business Combination up to two times, each by an additional three months (for a total of up to 24 months to complete a Business Combination). The Company’s ability to extend the time available to consummate the initial Business Combination will be conditioned upon the deposit by the initial stockholders or their affiliates or designees into the Trust Account of $200,000 prior to the applicable deadline for each three-month extension. The Company’s initial stockholders and their affiliates or designees are not obligated to fund the Trust Account to extend the time to complete the initial Business Combination. If the Company is unable to consummate the initial Business Combination within such time period, the Company will, as promptly as possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem 100% of its outstanding public shares for a pro rata portion of the funds held in the Trust Account, including a pro rata portion of any interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay taxes, and then seek to dissolve and liquidate. However, the Company may not be able to distribute such amounts as a result of claims of creditors which may take priority over the claims of its public stockholders. In the event of the Company’s dissolution and liquidation, the public warrants and public rights (see Note 2) will expire and will be worthless.
7 |
The Company will consummate the initial Business Combination only if public stockholders do not exercise conversion rights in an amount that would cause net tangible assets to be less than $5,000,001. The Company will either (1) seek stockholder approval of the initial Business Combination at a meeting called for such purpose at which stockholders may seek to convert their shares, regardless of whether they vote for or against the proposed Business Combination, into their pro rata share of the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account (net of taxes payable), or (2) provide Company stockholders with the opportunity to sell their shares to the Company by means of a tender offer (and thereby avoid the need for a stockholder vote) for an amount equal to their pro rata share of the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account (net of taxes payable), in each case subject to the limitations described herein. The decision as to whether the Company will seek stockholder approval of the proposed Business Combination or 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 seeking stockholder approval. Unlike other blank check companies which require stockholder votes and conduct proxy solicitations in conjunction with their initial Business Combinations and related conversions of public shares for cash upon consummation of such initial Business Combinations even when a vote is not required by law, the Company will have the flexibility to avoid such stockholder vote and allow stockholders to sell their shares pursuant to the tender offer rules of the SEC. In that case, the Company will file tender offer documents with the SEC that will contain substantially the same financial and other information about the initial Business Combination as is required under the SEC’s proxy rules.
The initial per public share redemption or conversion price will be $10.35 per share. However, the Company may not be able to distribute such amounts as a result of claims of creditors which may take priority over the claims of its public stockholders.
Liquidity and Going Concern
At March 31, 2017, the Company had $53,538 in cash and a working capital deficiency of $1,146,265. Further, the Company has incurred and expects to continue to incur significant costs in pursuit of its financing and acquisition plans.
Management has evaluated the relevant conditions and events to determine if it is probable that the Company would be able to meet its obligations as they become due one year from the issuance of these financial statements and as a result, continue as a going concern. The Company has until March 7, 2018 (twenty-four months from the closing of the public offering assuming the two three month extensions are exercised) to complete an initial business combination. If a business combination is not completed within the relevant time frame, the Company will be dissolved and liquidated. As a result, management believes this raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management believes it is probable that the plan to complete a business combination prior to March 7, 2018 will be effectively implemented and would therefore alleviate the substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. However, there can be no assurance such a business combination will occur.
Basis of Presentation
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to fairly present the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The preparation of financial statements 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 therein. Due to the inherent uncertainty involved in making estimates, actual results in future periods may differ from those estimates.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted. The balance sheet at December 31, 2016 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2016. The results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the full fiscal year.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under FASB ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” approximates the carrying amounts reflected in the balance sheets given their short-term nature.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements 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 and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Securities Held in Trust Account
At March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the assets held in the Trust Account were valued at $40,469,896 and $40,473,422, respectively. For the first quarter of 2017, the assets held in the Trust Account were invested in treasury bills and money market funds. At March 31, 2017, all assets in the Trust Account were invested in United States government treasury bills and money market funds in one financial institution. Due to the short-term nature of these investments, the fair value approximates the carrying amounts reflected in the balance sheet.
Offering Costs
The Company complies with the requirements of FASB ASC 340-10-S99-1 and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) Topic 5A—“Expenses of Offering.” Offering costs of approximately $2,696,501, consisting principally of underwriter discounts of $1,950,000 (including $780,000 of which payment is deferred) and $746,501 of private placement fees and professional, printing, filing, regulatory and other costs have been charged to additional paid-in capital upon completion of the Public Offering.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under ASC 740 “Income Taxes” (“ASC 740”). ASC 740 requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for both the expected impact of differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities and for the expected future tax benefit to be derived from tax loss and tax credit carry forwards. ASC 740 additionally requires a valuation allowance to be established when it is more likely than not that all or a portion of deferred tax assets will not be realized.
ASC 740 also clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. ASC 740 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. Based on the Company’s evaluation, it has been concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in the Company’s financial statements. The Company believes that its income tax positions and deductions would be sustained on audit and does not anticipate any adjustments that would result in a material change to its financial position.
The Company’s policy for recording interest and penalties associated with audits is to record such expense as a component of income tax expense. There were no amounts accrued for penalties or interest as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016. At March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, there are no uncertain tax positions.
9 |
Common Stock Subject to Possible Redemption
The Company accounts for its common stock subject to possible conversion or redemption in accordance with ASC 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity”. Conditionally convertible common stock (including common stock that features conversion rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to conversion 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.
All of the 3,900,000 common shares sold as part of a Unit (as defined below) in the Public Offering (the “Public Shares”) contain a redemption feature which allows for the redemption of common shares under the Company’s Liquidation or Tender Offer/Stockholder Approval provisions. In accordance with ASC 480, redemption provisions not solely within the control of the Company require the security to be classified outside of permanent equity. Ordinary liquidation events, which involve the redemption and liquidation of all of the entity’s equity instruments, are excluded from the provisions of ASC 480. Although the Company did not specify a maximum redemption threshold, its certificate of incorporation provides that in no event will it redeem its Public Shares in an amount that would cause its net tangible assets (stockholders’ equity) to be less than $5,000,001.
The Company recognizes changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and will adjust the carrying value of the security to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Increases or decreases in the carrying amount of redeemable common stock shall be affected by charges against retained earnings.
Accordingly, at March 31, 2017, 3,240,929 of the 5,169,500 common shares outstanding were classified outside of permanent equity at their redemption value. At December 31, 2016, 3,252,836 of the 5,169,500 common shares outstanding were classified outside of permanent equity at their redemption value.
Note 2 — The Offering
The Public Offering called for the Company to offer for public sale up to 4,485,000 Units at a proposed offering price of $10.00 per unit. Each unit had a price of $10.00 and consisted of one share of common stock, one right to receive one-tenth (1/10) of a share of common stock automatically on the consummation of a Business Combination, and one warrant (a “Unit”). Each warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one-half of one share of common stock at a price of $11.50 per full share, subject to certain adjustments. The warrants will become exercisable on the later of 30 days after the completion of the Business Combination and 12 months from closing of the Public Offering, and will expire five years after the completion of the Business Combination or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.
On March 7, 2016, the Company closed on the Public Offering and sale of 3,900,000 Units to the public (the “Public Stockholders”) at a price of $10.00 per Unit.
Simultaneous with the closing of the Public Offering, the Company closed on the private placement of 294,500 private units (inclusive of the Public Offering, the “Total Offering”). The private placement included a sale of 275,000 private units to Jensyn Capital, LLC, an entity controlled by insiders, and 19,500 private units to Chardan Capital Markets, LLC (the “Private Units”) (and/or their respective designees) at $10.00 per unit for a total purchase price of $2,945,000. Jensyn Capital, LLC and Chardan Capital Markets, LLC also agreed that if the over-allotment option was exercised by the underwriters in full or in part, they or their designee would purchase from the Company at a price of $10.00 per unit the number of private units (up to a maximum of 38,025 private units) necessary to maintain in the Trust Account described below an amount equal to $10.35 per share of common stock sold to the public in the Public Offering. In April 2016, the underwriter elected not to exercise the over-allotment option.
The Private Units are identical to the Units sold in the Public Offering. However, Jensyn Capital, LLC and its transferees agreed (A) to vote their private shares and any public shares acquired in or after the Public Offering in favor of any proposed Business Combination, (B) not to propose, or vote in favor of, an amendment to the Company’s certificate of incorporation that would affect the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to redeem 100% of its public shares if the Company does not complete the initial Business Combination within 18 months from the closing of the Public Offering (or 24 months, as applicable), unless the Company provides its public stockholders with the opportunity to redeem their shares of common stock upon approval of any such amendment 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 pay franchise and income taxes, divided by the number of then outstanding public shares, (C) not to convert any shares (including the private shares) into the right to receive cash from the Trust Account in connection with a stockholder vote to approve the Company’s proposed initial Business Combination (or sell any shares they hold to the Company in a tender offer in connection with a proposed initial Business Combination) or a vote to amend the provisions of the Company’s certificate of incorporation relating to the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to redeem 100% of its public shares if the Company does not complete the initial Business Combination within 18 months from the closing of the Public Offering (or 24 months, if the period of time within which the Company can complete a Business Combination is extended by the full amount as described herein) and (D) that the private shares shall not be entitled to be redeemed for a pro rata portion of the funds held in the Trust Account if a Business Combination is not consummated. Additionally, the Company’s insiders (and/or their designees) have agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of the Private Units or underlying securities (except to the same permitted transferees as the Insider Shares described in Note 3 and provided the transferees agree to the same terms and restrictions as the permitted transferees of the Insider Shares must agree to, each as described above) until the completion of the initial Business Combination.

The Company also granted Chardan Capital Markets, LLC, the representative of the underwriters (the “Representative”), a 45-day option to purchase up to 585,000 Units (over and above the 3,900,000 Units referred to above) solely to cover over-allotments, if any. In April 2016, the Representative elected to not exercise this option.
If the Company is unable to consummate a Business Combination within 18 months from the closing of the Public Offering, or 24 months from the closing of the Public Offering (if the two three-month extension periods are exercised) it will redeem 100% of the shares held by Public Stockholders using the funds in the Trust Account described above. In such event, the rights and warrants held by Public Stockholders will expire and be worthless.
The Company paid an underwriting discount of 3.0% of the per Unit offering price to the underwriters at the closing of the Public Offering (approximately $1,170,000), with an additional fee (the “Deferred Discount”) of 2.0% of the gross offering proceeds payable upon the Company’s completion of a Business Combination (approximately $780,000). The Deferred Discount will become payable to the underwriters from the amounts held in the Trust Account solely in the event the Company completes its initial Business Combination.
At the closing of the Public Offering, the Company issued a unit purchase option (“UPO”), for $100, to the Representative to purchase 390,000 Units. The UPO will be exercisable at any time, in whole or in part, during the period commencing on the later of the first anniversary of the effective date of the Public Offering registration statement and the closing of Business Combination and terminating on the fifth anniversary of the effective date of the Public Offering registration statement at a price per Unit equal to 120% of the offering price of the Units.
The Company accounted for the fair value of the UPO as an expense of the Public Offering resulting in a charge directly to shareholders’ equity. The Company estimated that the fair value of the UPO was approximately $1,033,500 (or $2.65 per unit) using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The fair value of the UPO was estimated as of the date of grant using the following assumptions: (1) expected volatility of 35%, (2) risk-free interest rate of 1.42%, (3) expected life of five years and (4) zero dividends. The purchase option may be exercised for cash or on a cashless basis, at the holder’s option, and expires five years from the effective date of the registration statement. The option and the 390,000 units, as well as the 429,000 shares of common stock and 390,000 warrants, and 180,000 shares underlying such warrants, that may be issued upon exercise of the option, have been deemed compensation by FINRA and are therefore subject to a 180-day lock-up (subject to specified exceptions) pursuant to Rule 5110(g)(1) of FINRA’s Rules, during which time the option may not be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated, or be subject of any hedging, short sale, derivative or put or call transaction that would result in the economic disposition of the securities. Additionally, the option may not be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated for a one-year period (including the foregoing 180-day period) following the effective date of the registration statement except to any underwriter and selected dealer participating in the offering and their bona fide officers or partners. The option grants to holders one demand right and “piggy back” rights for periods of five and seven years, respectively, from the effective date of the registration statement with respect to the registration under the Securities Act of the securities directly and indirectly issuable upon exercise of the option. The Company will bear all fees and expenses attendant to registering the securities, other than underwriting commissions which will be paid for by the holders themselves. The exercise price and number of units issuable upon exercise of the option may be adjusted in certain circumstances including in the event of a stock dividend, recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation. However, the option will not be adjusted for issuances of common stock at a price below its exercise price.

Note 3 — Related Party Transactions
At December 31, 2015 the four principal stockholders (the “Principal Shareholders”) of the Company and Jensyn Capital, LLC, an affiliate owned by the Principal Shareholders (collectively, the “Insider Shareholders”), held an aggregate of 1,150,000 shares of common stock (the “Insider Shares”) acquired for an aggregate purchase price of $25,029 or approximately $0.02 per share. During the period from January 1, 2016 to March 31, 2016, the Principal Shareholders forfeited 28,750 shares of common stock and agreed to transfer an aggregate of 136,864 shares to Directors, Jensyn Capital, and other transferees (all Permitted Transferees as defined in the Registration Statement). In addition, the Insider Shareholders forfeited an additional 146,250 shares in April 2016, since the underwriter’s over-allotment option was not exercised, and transferred an aggregate of 4,000 shares to a Director in December 2016.
The Insider Shares are identical to the shares of common stock included in the Units sold in the Public Offering. However, the Insider Shareholders and their transferees have agreed (A) to vote their Insider Shares and any public shares acquired in or after the Public Offering in favor of any proposed Business Combination, (B) not to propose, or vote in favor of, an amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation that would affect the substance or timing of Company’s obligation to redeem 100% of its shares held by Public Stockholders if the Company does not complete the initial Business Combination within 18 months from the closing of the Public Offering (or 24 months, as applicable), unless it provides Public Stockholders with the opportunity to redeem their shares of common stock upon approval of any such amendment 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 pay franchise and income taxes, divided by the number of then outstanding public shares, (C) not to convert any shares (including the Insider Shares) into the right to receive cash from the Trust Account in connection with a stockholder vote to approve the proposed initial Business Combination or a vote to amend the provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation relating to the substance or timing of Company’s obligation to redeem 100% of its shares held by Public Shareholders if the Company does not complete the initial Business Combination within 18 months from the closing of the Public Offering (or 24 months, as applicable) and (D) that the Insider Shares shall not be entitled to be redeemed for a pro rata portion of the funds held in the Trust Account if a Business Combination is not consummated. Additionally, the Insider Shareholders have agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of the Insider Shares (except to certain permitted transferees) until, with respect to 50% of the Insider Shares, the earlier of six months after the date of the consummation of the initial Business Combination and the date on which the closing price of the Company’s common stock equals or exceeds $12.50 per share for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period following the consummation of the initial Business Combination and, with respect to the remaining 50% of the Insider Shares, six months after the date of the consummation of the initial Business Combination.
The Company issued unsecured promissory notes to the Principal Shareholders for amounts lent or to be lent to the Company up to $425,000 each. The notes are non-interest bearing and payable no later than the date of the consummation of an initial Business Combination. It is not practicable to disclose the fair value of the Notes because they are with related parties. A total of $899,320 and $789,320 was outstanding to the Principal Shareholders at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. The Company also owed $1,000 advanced by an affiliated company owned by the same stockholders at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016.
The Company has entered into an agreement with an entity owned by the Company’s Principal Shareholders, Jensyn Integration Services, LLC, for office space, utilities and certain office and administrative services. This agreement commenced on the date that the Company’s securities were first listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market, and expires when the Company consummates a Business Combination. Such office space, as well as utilities and administrative services, will be made available to the Company as may be required by the Company from time to time. The Company has agreed to pay an aggregate of $10,000 per month for such services. The Company may delay payment of such monthly fee upon a determination by its Audit Committee that it lacks sufficient funds held outside of the Trust Account to pay actual or anticipated expenses in connection with the Company’s initial Business Combination. The Audit Committee has determined to defer the payment of the $10,000 monthly fee. As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Company has accrued, but not paid, $130,000 and $100,000 relating to this agreement, respectively.

The holders of the Company’s Insider Shares issued and outstanding, as well as the holders of the private units (and underlying securities) and any shares the Company’s insiders, officers, directors or their affiliates that may be issued in payment of working capital loans made to the Company, are entitled to registration rights. The holders of a 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 Insider Shares can elect to exercise these registration rights at any time commencing three months prior to the date on which these shares of common stock are to be released from escrow. The holders of a majority of the private units or shares issued in payment of working capital loans made to the Company can elect to exercise these registration rights at any time after consummation of a Business Combination. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to the consummation of the Company’s initial Business Combination. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.
During the year ended December 31, 2016, the Principal Shareholders agreed to transfer 37,000 shares of the Company’s common stock owned by them to directors and others in lieu of payment for services. As a result, for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company recognized an expense of $11,733 and $0 respectively.
Jensyn Capital, LLC purchased an aggregate of 275,000 Private Units, at $10.00 per unit for a total purchase price of $2,750,000 on March 7, 2016 (see Note 2).
Note 4 – Accounts Payable and Accrued Expenses
At March 31, 2017, the Company had accounts payable and accrued expenses totaling $345,655, including $164,870 due to vendors, $30,307 due to Principal Shareholders, $130,000 of accrued expenses relating to a services agreement with an entity owned by the Company’s Principal Shareholders, Jensyn Integration Services, LLC, $11,025 of accrued expenses relating to franchise taxes and related fees, and $9,453 of other accrued expenses.

Such office space, as well as utilities and administrative services, will be made available to the Company as may be required by the Company from time to time. The Company has agreed to pay an aggregate of $10,000 per month for such services. The Company may delay payment of such monthly fee upon a determination by its Audit Committee that it lacks sufficient funds held outside of the Trust Account to pay actual or anticipated expenses in connection with the Company’s initial Business Combination.
Note 6 — Stockholders’ Equity

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
We are a “blank check” company formed on October 8, 2014 for the purpose of entering into a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or other similar Business Combination with one or more operating businesses. At March 31, 2017, we had not yet commenced any meaningful operations nor generated any revenues to date. All activity through March 31, 2017 relates to our formation, our initial public offering (“Public Offering”) described below, general corporate matters, and identifying and evaluating prospective acquisition candidates.
We consummated the Public Offering of 3,900,000 units (“Units”) in March 2016, generating gross proceeds of $39,000,000, which is described in Note 2 to the Financial Statements. Simultaneously with the closing of the Public Offering, we also consummated a private placement of 294,500 units (“Private Units”) at $10 per unit generating additional gross proceeds of $2,945,000 (inclusive of the Public Offering, the “Total Offering”).
We intend to utilize the cash derived from the proceeds of the Public Offering and the private placement of the Private Units, our securities, debt or a combination of cash, securities and debt, in effecting our initial Business Combination. The issuance of additional shares of common stock or preferred stock in our initial Business Combination:
● may significantly dilute the equity interest of our investors in the Total Offering who would not have pre-emption rights in respect of any such issuance;
● may subordinate the rights of holders of shares of common stock if we issue shares of preferred stock with rights senior to those afforded to our shares of common stock;
● will likely cause a change in control if a substantial number of our shares of common stock are issued, which may affect, among other things, our ability to use our net operating loss carry forwards, if any, and most likely will also result in the resignation or removal of some or all of our present officers and directors; and
● may adversely affect prevailing market prices for our securities.
Similarly, if we issue debt securities, it could result in:
● default and foreclosure on our assets if our operating revenues after our initial Business Combination are insufficient to pay our debt obligations;
● acceleration of our obligations to repay the indebtedness even if we have made all principal and interest payments when due if the debt security contains covenants that required the maintenance of certain financial ratios or reserves and we breach any such covenant without a waiver or renegotiation of that covenant;
● our immediate payment of all principal and accrued interest, if any, if the debt security is payable on demand;
● our inability to obtain additional financing, if necessary, if the debt security contains covenants restricting our ability to obtain additional financing while such security is outstanding; and
● limitations on our ability to borrow additional amounts for expenses, capital expenditures, acquisitions, debt service requirements, execution of our strategy and other purposes and other disadvantages compared to our competitors who have less debt.
14 |
Our entire activity since inception up to the closing of our Public Offering on March 7, 2016 was in preparation for the Public Offering. Since the Public Offering, our activity has been limited to the evaluation of the Business Combination candidates, and we will not be generating any operating revenue until the closing and completion of our initial Business Combination. We have generated a small amount of non-operating income in the form of interest income on the funds invested in the Trust Account. Interest income is not expected to be significant in view of current low interest rates on risk-free investments (treasury securities). Our expenses have increased as a result of being a public company (for financial reporting, accounting and auditing compliance) and the office and administrative services fee charged to us by a related party. We expect to incur increased expenses in the future as we pursue a Business Combination.
For the three months ended March 31, 2017, we incurred a net loss of $134,969, which consists primarily of $54,945 incurred for accounting and professional services, $29,028 for legal expenses, $30,000 of expenses pertaining to office and administrative services provided to us by a related party, Jensyn Integration Services, LLC, $11,025 incurred for franchise taxes and related fees, $10,299 incurred for D&O insurance, $11,733 for stock compensation expense, $10,500 for NASDAQ fees, $17,869 for other general and administrative expenses, and $143 of interest expense offset by $40,573 of interest income from the trust investments.
For the three months ended March 31, 2016, we incurred a net loss of $144,097, which consists primarily of $99,224 incurred for accounting and professional services, $13,760 for legal fees, $12,460 incurred for professional fees related to the audit and SEC filings, $10,000 of expenses pertaining to office and administrative services provided to us by a related party, Jensyn Integration Services, LLC, $9,566 incurred for D&O insurance, $9,336 for other general and administrative expenses, and $298 of interest expense offset by $10,547 of interest income from the trust investments.
Our operating expenses for both three month periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 principally consisted of expenses related to public filings and to a lesser extent, general and administrative expenses including insurance and office expenses. Until we consummate a Business Combination, we will have no operating revenues.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our cash balance as of March 31, 2017 was $53,538. Our liquidity needs have been satisfied to date through receipt of $25,029 from the sale of the Insider Shares, loans and advances from our four principal shareholders (the “Principal Shareholders”) and an affiliate in an aggregate amount of $900,320 (each as described in Note 3), and $85,000 from funds raised in the Public Offering and private placement of securities that are not required to be held in trust. We incurred approximately $2,696,501 in total offering related costs, including a $1,170,000 underwriting discount paid to underwriters and $780,000 deferred underwriting commission.
We intend to use substantially all of the net proceeds of the Total Offering, including the funds held in the Trust Account, in connection with our initial Business Combination and to pay our expenses relating thereto. The expenses include a fee payable to Chardan Capital Markets, LLC in an amount equal to 2.0% ($780,000) of the total gross proceeds raised in the Public Offering upon consummation of our initial Business Combination. To the extent that our capital stock is used in whole or in part as consideration to effect our initial Business Combination, the remaining proceeds held in the Trust Account as well as any other net proceeds not expended 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 initial Business Combination if the funds available to us outside of the Trust Account were insufficient to cover such expenses.
We believe that our cash balance as of March 31, 2017 not held in the Trust Account and additional investments from our Principal Shareholders will be sufficient to allow us to operate through at least March 31, 2018, assuming that a Business Combination is not consummated during that time. Over this time period, we will be using these funds for identifying and evaluating prospective Business Combination 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 consummate our initial Business Combination with and structuring, negotiating and consummating the Business Combination. We anticipate that we will pay approximately:
15 |
● | $60,000 of expenses for the search for target businesses and for the legal, accounting and other third-party expenses attendant to the due diligence investigations, structuring and negotiating of our initial Business Combination; | |
● | $170,000 of expenses in legal and accounting fees relating to our SEC reporting obligations; | |
● | $180,000 for general working capital that will be used for miscellaneous expenses, liquidation obligations and reserves, including stock related expenses (listing fees and transfer agent costs) and director and officer liability insurance premiums. |
If our estimates of the costs of undertaking due diligence and negotiating our initial Business Combination are less than the actual amount necessary to do so, we may have insufficient funds available to operate our business prior to our initial Business Combination. Moreover, we may need to obtain additional financing either to consummate our initial Business Combination or because we become obligated to convert a significant number of our public shares upon consummation of our initial Business Combination, in which case we may issue additional securities or incur debt in connection with such Business Combination. Subject to compliance with applicable securities laws, we would only consummate such financing simultaneously with the consummation of our initial Business Combination. Following our initial Business Combination, if cash on hand is insufficient, we may need to obtain additional financing in order to meet our obligations.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements; Commitments and Contractual Obligations
As of March 31, 2017, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements. At March 31, 2017, we have short-term debt due to related parties of $900,320. This debt is unsecured, non-interest bearing and payable no later than the date of the consummation of an initial Business Combination. We do not have any capital lease obligations, operating lease obligations or long-term liabilities other than an agreement to pay an affiliate of our Principal Shareholders a total of $10,000 per month for office space, utilities, secretarial support and administrative services.
Critical Accounting Policies & Estimates
Common Stock Subject to Possible Redemption
The Company accounts for its common stock subject to possible conversion or redemption in accordance with ASC 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” Common stock subject to mandatory conversion (if any) is classified as a liability instrument and is measured at fair value. Conditionally convertible common stock (including common stock that features conversion rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to conversion 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 by the Company to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to the occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, at March 31, 2017, the common stock subject to possible redemption is presented as temporary equity, outside of the stockholders’ equity section of the Company’s condensed balance sheets.
Although the Company did not specify a maximum redemption threshold, its charter provides that in no event will it redeem its public shares in an amount that would cause its net tangible assets (stockholders’ equity) to be less than $5,000,001.
The Company recognizes changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and will adjust the carrying value of the security to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Increases or decreases in the carrying amount of redeemable common stock shall be affected by charges against retained earnings.
Accordingly, at March 31, 2017, 3,240,929 of the 5,169,500 public shares were classified outside of permanent equity at their redemption value.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
As of March 31, 2017, we are not subject to any market or interest rate risk. The net proceeds of the Public Offering and the sale of the Private Units held in the Trust Account are invested in U.S. government treasury bills 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. Due to the short-term nature of these investments, we believe there is no associated material exposure to interest rate risk.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial and accounting officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2017, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. In connection with its audit of our financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2016, our independent registered public accounting firm identified that we had not accrued a material liability. The error resulted from an inadequate control procedure and a lack of supervisory review over the closing process. This control deficiency constitutes a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting. As a result, our principal executive officer and principal financial and accounting officer have concluded that during the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective. We plan to take steps to remedy this material weakness during 2017 in conjunction with a business combination that will provide additional resources.
Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
During the three months ended March 31, 2017, there were no changes in internal control over financial reporting.
None
Factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are any of the risks described in our Registration Statement. Any of these factors could result in a significant or material adverse effect on our results of operations or financial condition. Additional risk factors not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also impair our business or results of operations. As of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, there have been no material changes to the risk factors disclosed in our Registration Statement, except we may disclose changes to such factors or disclose additional factors from time to time in our future filings with the SEC.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
The registration statement for our Public Offering was declared effective on March 2, 2016. We consummated the Public Offering of 3,900,000 units (“Units”) on March 7, 2016 generating gross proceeds of $39,000,000. We paid a total of $1,150,000 in underwriting discounts and commissions to the underwriters of the Public Offering. In addition, the underwriters agreed to defer $780,000 of additional underwriting discounts and commissions, which amount will be payable upon consummation of our initial Business Combination, if consummated. Simultaneously with the closing of the Public Offering, we also consummated a private placement of 294,500 Private Units at $10 per unit generating gross proceeds of $2,945,000. We paid the placement agent for the offering of the Private Units a $325,000 commission. We relied upon the exemption provided by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, in connection with the sale of the Private Units.
After deducting the underwriting discounts, commissions (excluding the deferred portion of $780,000 in underwriting discounts and commissions, which amount will be payable upon consummation of our initial Business Combination, if consummated), the total net proceeds from the Total Offering and the private placement of the Private Units was $40,450,000, of which $40,365,000 was placed in the Trust Account. The remaining $85,000 was used to pay offering expenses. The proceeds held in the Trust Account may be invested by the trustee only in U.S. government treasury bills, notes or bonds with a maturity of 180 days or less or in money market funds investing solely in U.S. Treasuries and meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act.
