NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

June 30, 2023

Note 1 — Organization and Business Operations

SportsMap Tech Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) is a blank check company incorporated as a Delaware corporation on May 14, 2021. The Company was formed for the purpose of entering into a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or other similar Business Combination with one or more businesses or entities (the “Business Combination”).

As of June 30, 2023, the Company had not commenced any operations. All activity for the period from May 14, 2021 (inception) through June 30, 2023 relates to the Company’s formation and the initial public offering described below and, subsequent to the initial public offering, identifying a target company for a Business Combination. The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of its initial Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company will generate non-operating income in the form of interest income on cash and cash equivalents from the proceeds derived from the Initial Public Offering (the “IPO”).

The Company’s sponsor is SportsMap, LLC, a limited liability company (the “Sponsor”). The registration statement for the Company’s IPO was declared effective on October 18, 2021 (the “Effective Date”). On October 21, 2021, the Company consummated the IPO of 11,500,000 units (the “Units” and, with respect to the Common stock included in the Units being offered, the “public shares”) at $10.00 per Unit, including the full exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment of 1,500,000 units, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $115,000,000, which is discussed in Note 3.

Simultaneously with the consummation of the IPO, the Company consummated the private placement of 675,000 units (the “Private Placement Units”) at a price of $10.00 per Private Placement Unit to the Sponsor and the representative of the underwriters and/or certain of their designees or affiliates, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $6,750,000, which is described in Note 4.

The Company’s management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the IPO and sale of the Private Placement Units, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be applied generally toward consummating a Business Combination. The Company’s Business Combination must be with one or more target businesses that together have a fair market value equal to at least 80% of the net balance in the Trust Account (as defined below) (less any taxes payable on interest earned) at the time of the signing a definitive agreement in connection with the initial Business Combination. However, the Company will only complete a Business Combination if the post-transaction company owns or acquires 50% or more of the outstanding voting securities of the target or otherwise acquires a controlling interest in the target sufficient for it not to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”). There is no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully effect a Business Combination.

Following the closing of the IPO on October 21, 2021, $117,300,000 ($10.20 per Unit) from the net proceeds of the sale of Units in the IPO and a portion of the proceeds of the sale of the Private Placement Units was deposited into a trust account (“Trust Account”) located in the United States with Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company acting as trustee, and is invested only in U.S. government treasury bills, notes or bonds with a maturity of 185 days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act and which invest solely in U.S. Treasuries. Except as set forth below, the proceeds held in the Trust Account will not be released until the earlier of: (1) the completion of the initial Business Combination within the required time period; (2) the Company’s redemption of 100% of the outstanding public shares if the Company has not completed an initial Business Combination in the required time period; and (3) the redemption of any public shares properly tendered in connection with a stockholder vote to amend the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation (A) to modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to allow redemption of public shares as described in the IPO or redeem 100% of the public shares if the Company does not complete the initial Business Combination within the required time period or (B) with respect to any other provision relating to stockholders’ rights or pre-Business Combination activity.

Table of Contents

In connection with any proposed initial Business Combination, the Company will either (1) seek stockholder approval of such initial Business Combination at a meeting of stockholders called for such purpose at which stockholders may seek to redeem their shares, regardless of whether they vote for or against the proposed Business Combination or do not vote at all, for their pro rata share of the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account (net of taxes payable), or (2) provide the Company’s 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 a proposed Business Combination or will allow stockholders to sell their shares to the Company 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.

The Company has until August 20, 2023 (as extended, or until December 20, 2023 with additional funding of the Trust Account as described below) to complete the initial Business Combination. If the Company is unable to complete the initial Business Combination within such period, the Company will: (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem 100% of the outstanding public shares which redemption will completely extinguish public stockholders’ rights as stockholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any), subject to applicable law, and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the remaining holders of common stock and the board of directors, proceed to commence a voluntary liquidation and thereby a formal dissolution of the Company, subject (in the case of (ii) and (iii) above) to the Company’s obligations to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of applicable law.

The initial stockholders have agreed to (i) waive their redemption rights with respect to their private shares in connection with the completion of the initial Business Combination, (ii) waive their redemption rights with respect to their private shares in connection with a stockholder vote to approve an amendment to the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation (A) to modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to redeem 100% of the public shares if the Company does not complete the initial Business Combination within the Combination Period or (B) with respect to any other provision relating to stockholders’ rights or pre-initial Business Combination activity and (iii) waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to their private shares if the company fail to complete the initial Business Combination within the Combination Period.

The Sponsor has agreed that it will be liable to the Company if and to the extent any claims by a vendor for services rendered or products sold to the Company, or a prospective target business with which the Company has discussed entering into a transaction agreement, reduce the amounts in the Trust Account to below $10.20 per share, except as to any claims by a third party who executed a waiver of any and all rights to seek access to the Trust Account and except as to any claims under the Company’s indemnity of the underwriters of the IPO against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act. In the event that an executed waiver is deemed to be unenforceable against a third party, the Sponsor will not be responsible to the extent of any liability for such third-party claims. The Company has not independently verified whether the Sponsor has sufficient funds to satisfy its indemnity obligations and believes that the Sponsor’s only assets are securities of the Company. The Company has not asked the Sponsor to reserve for such obligations and therefore believes the Sponsor will be unlikely to satisfy its indemnification obligations if it is required to do so.

However, the Company believes the likelihood of the Sponsor having to indemnify the Trust Account is limited because the Company will endeavor to have all vendors and prospective target businesses as well as other entities execute agreements with the Company waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to monies held in the Trust Account.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company withdrew $103,376,238 and $103,515,624, respectively, from the Trust Account in connection with redemptions and to pay tax obligations. No amounts were withdrawn for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022.

On April 14, 2023, the Company held a special meeting of stockholders (the "Meeting"), at which the Company's stockholders of record voted to approve the amendment of the Company's amended and restated certificate of incorporation to extend the date by which the Company must consummate a Business Combination or, if it fails to do so, cease its operations and redeem or repurchase 100% of the shares of the Company's common stock issued in the Company's initial public offering, from April 20, 2023, monthly for up to eight additional months at the election of the Company, ultimately until as late as December 20, 2023 ("Extension"). With this amendment, the Company has agreed to deposit into the Trust Account $0.05 for each outstanding public share for each monthly extension of the date by which the Company must complete its initial Business Combination. Since the Meeting, the Company has deposited $245,242

into the Trust Account to extend the date by which it must consummate a Business Combination or cease operations until August 20, 2023.

In connection with the Extension, 9,865,056 shares of the Company's common stock were redeemed (the "Redemption"), with 5,184,944 shares of Common Stock remaining outstanding after the Redemption, of which 1,634,944 shares of Common Stock remaining outstanding after the Redemption are shares issued in connection with our IPO (the "Public Shares"). The public stockholders will continue to have the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares upon the completion of an initial Business Combination at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount on deposit in the Trust Account as of two business days prior to the vote to approve the consummation of an initial Business Combination, including interest (which interest shall be net of taxes payable) divided by the number of then outstanding Public Shares.

Business Combination Agreement

On December 5, 2022, SportsMap Tech Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (“SportsMap”), entered into a Business Combination Agreement, which was amended on June 27, 2023 (as it may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Business Combination Agreement”), by and among SportsMap, Infrared Cameras Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“ICI”), and ICH Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of SportsMap (“Merger Sub”).

The Business Combination

The Business Combination Agreement provides that, on the terms and subject to the conditions of the Business Combination Agreement, Merger Sub will merge with and into ICI (the “Merger”) with ICI surviving the Merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of SportsMap (the “Surviving Company”).

The Business Combination is expected to close in the late third quarter or early fourth quarter of 2023, following the receipt of the required approval of SportsMap’s stockholders and the fulfillment or waiver (if permitted by applicable law) of other customary closing conditions. The closing of the Business Combination is referred to herein as the “Closing”.

Business Combination Consideration

At the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”), in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions of the Business Combination Agreement:

Table of Contents

The “Exchange Ratio” will be determined by (i) dividing the Adjusted Equity Value by $10.00, which is the value of one share of Sports Map common stock, and (ii) further dividing the quotient of the calculation in clause (i) by the aggregate number of shares of ICI Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than shares held immediately prior to the Effective Time by ICI as treasury stock) on a fully-diluted basis assuming the exercise of all Participating Company Options, excluding any such shares issuable upon exercise of Out-of-the-Money Options, which will be cancelled at the Effective Time. The “Adjusted Equity Value” will be equal to (a) $100,000,000, less (b) the aggregate amount of ICI’s outstanding indebtedness at the Effective Time, plus (b) the aggregate exercise price that would be paid in respect of Participating Company Options if all Participating Company Options were exercised in full immediately prior to the Effective Time, plus (c) all cash and cash equivalents of ICI as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, plus (d) the aggregate principal amount of any convertible promissory notes entered into by ICI on or after the date of the Business Combination Agreement but prior to the Closing in each case on terms and subject to conditions set forth in the Business Combination Agreement.

Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, SportsMap will reserve for issuance 2,400,000 shares of SportsMap common stock (the “Earnout Shares”). The Earnout Shares will be issued pro rata to the holders of ICI common stock if either (a) during the period beginning six months after the closing of the Business Combination and ending on December 31, 2024, the common stock of the post-closing public company (“PubCo”) achieves a market price of $12.50 per share for a specified number of days, or the combined company consummates a transaction in which its stockholders have the right to receive consideration implying a value of at least $12.50 per share, or (b) PubCo achieves revenue of $68.5 million during the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024, subject to certain limitations set forth in the Business Combination Agreement.

In addition, the Business Combination Agreement provides that, if ICI raises additional capital by the issuance of convertible promissory notes on or after the date of the Business Combination Agreement but prior to the Closing, such convertible notes will convert into ICI Class A Common Stock (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement) immediately prior to the Effective Time and will convert in the Merger in the same manner as ICI Common Stock.

Termination

The Business Combination Agreement may be terminated under certain customary and limited circumstances prior to the closing of the Business Combination, including, but not limited to, (i) by either SportsMap or ICI if the Business Combination is not consummated by December 20, 2023, (ii) by SportsMap if there is a material breach of the representations, warranties or covenants of ICI, subject to a thirty (30)-day cure period following notice of such breach, and (iii) by ICI upon a material breach of the representations, warranties or covenants of SportsMap, subject to a thirty (30)-day cure period following notice of such breach. If the Business Combination Agreement is validly terminated, none of the parties to the Business Combination Agreement will have any liability or any further obligation under the Business Combination Agreement, other than customary confidentiality obligations, except in the case of willful breach or fraud.

Contingent Business Combination Fees

As discussed in Note 6, the Company has engaged various parties to assist in the selection and consummation of a Business Combination. These fees are not due or payable until the consummation of a Business Combination. At June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, none of these amounts are reported in the Company’s unaudited condensed financial statements.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of June 30, 2023, the Company had $255,452 in its operating bank account and working capital deficit of $1,327,066, excluding taxes payable from the Trust Account.

Table of Contents

The Company’s liquidity needs through June 30, 2023 were satisfied through a payment from the Sponsor of $25,000 (see Note 5) for the Founder Shares to cover certain offering costs and the loan under an unsecured promissory note from the Sponsor of up to $400,000. The outstanding balance under the promissory note of $323,190 was paid in full and the unsecured promissory note is no longer available to the Company.

After consummation of the IPO on October 21, 2021, the Company had $2,150,000 of private placement proceeds receivable from the Sponsor which was received into the Company’s operating bank account on October 22, 2021. In April and May 2023, the Company secured operational working capital of $1,000,000 through investors within the Sponsor and other third parties (“Promissory Notes”) (see Note 5). In order to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Company’s Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor or certain of the Company’s officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, provide the Company Working Capital Loans, as defined below (see Note 5). As of June 30, 2023, there were no amounts outstanding under any Working Capital Loans.

Going Concern

The Company anticipates that the $255,452 held outside the Trust Account as of June 30, 2023, may not be sufficient to allow the Company to operate for at least 12 months from the issuance of the financial statements, assuming that a Business Combination is not consummated during that time. Until consummation of its Business Combination, the Company will be using the funds not held in the Trust Account, funds from the Promissory Notes and any additional Working Capital Loans (as defined in Note 5) (see Note 5), for identifying and evaluating prospective acquisition candidates, performing business due diligence on prospective target businesses, traveling to and from the offices, plants or similar locations of prospective target businesses, reviewing corporate documents and material agreements of prospective target businesses, selecting the target business to acquire and structuring, negotiating and consummating the Business Combination.

The Company can raise additional capital through Working Capital Loans from the initial shareholders, certain of the Company’s officers, and directors (see Note 5), or through loans from third parties. None of the sponsor, officers or directors are under any obligation to advance funds to, or to invest in, the Company. If the Company is unable to raise additional capital, it may be required to take additional measures to conserve liquidity, which could include, but not necessarily be limited to, curtailing operations, suspending the pursuit of its business plan, and reducing overhead expenses. The Company cannot provide any assurance that new financing will be available to it on commercially acceptable terms, if at all. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time, which is considered to be one year from the issuance date of these unaudited condensed financial statements.

The Company has until August 20, 2023 (as extended) to consummate a Business Combination. It is uncertain that the Company will be able to consummate a Business Combination by that date, which is less than 12 months from the issuance of these unaudited condensed financial statements. If a Business Combination is not consummated by the required date, there will be a mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution. In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with the authoritative guidance in Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-15, “Disclosure of Uncertainties About an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern,” management has determined that mandatory liquidation, and subsequent dissolution, should the Company be unable to complete a Business Combination, raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for the next 12 months from the issuance of these unaudited condensed financial statements. No adjustments have been made to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities should the Company be required to liquidate after August 20, 2023.

Risks and Uncertainties

Management is currently evaluating the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and Russia-Ukraine war and has concluded that while it is reasonably possible that the virus and war 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.

Inflation Reduction Act of 2022

On August 16, 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (the “IR Act”) was signed into federal law. The IR Act provides for, among other things, a new U.S. federal 1% excise tax on certain repurchases of stock by publicly traded U.S. domestic corporations and certain U.S. domestic subsidiaries of publicly traded foreign corporations occurring on or after January 1, 2023. The excise tax is imposed on the repurchasing corporation itself, not its shareholders from which shares are repurchased. The amount of the excise tax is generally 1% of the fair market value of the shares repurchased at the time of the repurchase. However, for purposes of calculating the excise tax, repurchasing corporations are permitted to net the fair market value of certain new stock issuances against the fair market value of stock repurchases during the same taxable year. In addition, certain exceptions apply to the excise tax. The U.S. Department of the Treasury (the “Treasury”) has been given authority to provide regulations and other guidance to carry out and prevent the abuse or avoidance of the excise tax.

On December 27, 2022, the Treasury published Notice 2023-2, which provided clarification on some aspects of the application of the excise tax. The notice generally provides that if a publicly traded U.S. corporation completely liquidates and dissolves, distributions in such complete liquidation and other distributions by such corporation in the same taxable year in which the final distribution in complete liquidation and dissolution is made are not subject to the excise tax. Although such notice clarifies certain aspects of the excise tax, the interpretation and operation of aspects of the excise tax (including its application and operation with respect to SPACs) remain unclear and such interim operating rules are subject to change.

Because the application of this excise tax is not entirely clear, any redemption or other repurchase effected by the Company, in connection with a Business Combination, extension vote or otherwise, may be subject to this excise tax. Because any such excise tax would be payable by the Company and not by the redeeming holders, it could cause a reduction in the value of the Company’s common stock, cash available with which to effectuate a Business Combination or cash available for distribution in a subsequent liquidation. Whether and to what extent the Company would be subject to the excise tax in connection with a Business Combination will depend on a number of factors, including (i) the structure of the Business Combination, (ii) the fair market value of the redemptions and repurchases in connection with the Business Combination, (iii) the nature and amount of any “PIPE” or other equity issuances in connection with the Business Combination (or any other equity issuances within the same taxable year of the Business Combination) and (iv) the content of any subsequent regulations, clarifications, and other guidance issued by the Treasury. Further, the application of the excise tax in respect of distributions pursuant to a liquidation of a publicly traded U.S. corporation is uncertain and has not been addressed by the Treasury in regulations, and it is possible that the proceeds held in the Trust Account could be used to pay any excise tax owed by the Company in the event the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination in the required time and redeem 100% of the remaining common stock in accordance with the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation, in which case the amount that would otherwise be received by the public stockholders in connection with the Company’s liquidation would be reduced.

​

Note 2 — Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements of the Company are presented in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP. In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed financial statements reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments necessary for the fair statement of the balances and results for the periods presented.

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 as filed with the SEC on March 31, 2023, which contains the audited financial statements and notes thereto. The interim results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2023 or for any future interim periods.

Emerging Growth Company Status

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

10

Table of Contents

to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and 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 a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of the Company’s unaudited condensed financial statements with another public company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of unaudited condensed financial statements in conformity with US GAAP 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 unaudited condensed financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period.

Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgement. 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. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. The Company did not have any cash equivalents as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 other than those in the Trust Account.

Cash and Securities Held in Trust Account

At June 30, 2023, substantially all of the assets held in the Trust Account were held in money market funds which are invested primarily in U.S. Treasury securities. All of 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 investments held in the Trust Account are included in interest earned on investments held in Trust Account in the accompanying condensed statements of operations. The estimated fair values of investments held in Trust Account are determined using available market information. Fair values of these investments are determined by Level 1 inputs utilizing quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets.

As of December 31, 2022, assets held in the Trust Account were held in cash and US Treasury Bills. Net proceeds of the sale of the Units in the Public Offering and the sale of the Private Placement Units were placed in the Trust Account which are only be invested in United States “government securities” within the meaning of Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act having a maturity of 185 days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 promulgated under the Investment Company Act which invest only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations. All of the Company’s investments in US Treasury Bills held in the Trust Account are classified as held-to-maturity securities. Held-to-maturity securities are presented on the balance sheet at amortizable cost at inception and at the end of each subsequent reporting period. Interest earned on the investments during each reporting period is recorded at the end of each reporting period and is reported as interest earned on investments held in Trust Account in the accompanying condensed statements of operations.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under the FASB ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the balance sheets, primarily due to its short-term nature.

Fair Value Measurements

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. 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 (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The Company’s financial instruments are classified as either Level 1, Level 2 or Level 3. These tiers include:

Common Stock Subject to Possible Redemption

The Company accounts for its common stock subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in FASB ASC Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” Common stock subject to mandatory redemption (if any) is classified as a liability instrument and measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable common stock (including shares of 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) is classified as temporary equity. At all other times, common stock is classified as stockholders’ equity. The Company’s Common stock will feature certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company’s control and will be subject to the occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, common stock subject to possible redemption will be presented at redemption value as temporary equity, outside of the stockholders’ equity section of the Company’s balance sheets.

Derivative Financial Instruments

The Company evaluates its financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives in accordance with ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging”. Derivative instruments are initially recorded at fair value on the grant date and re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the statements of operations. Derivative assets and liabilities are classified in the balance sheets as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement or conversion of the instrument could be required within 12 months of the balance sheet date.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes under ASC 740, “Income Taxes.” ASC 740, Income Taxes, requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for both the expected impact of differences between the unaudited condensed financial statements and tax basis of assets and liabilities and for the expected future tax benefit to be derived from tax loss and tax credit carry forwards. ASC 740 additionally requires a valuation allowance to be established when it is more likely than not that all or a portion of deferred tax assets will not be realized. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company’s deferred tax asset had a full valuation allowance recorded against it.

While ASC 740 identifies usage of an effective annual tax rate for purposes of an interim provision, it does allow for estimating individual elements in the current period if they are significant, unusual or infrequent. Computing the effective tax rate for the Company

12

Table of Contents

is complicated due to the potential impact of the timing of any Business Combination expenses and the actual interest income that will be recognized during the year. The Company has taken a position as to the calculation of income tax expense in a current period based on ASC 740-270-25-3 which states, “If an entity is unable to estimate a part of its ordinary income (or loss) or the related tax (benefit) but is otherwise able to make a reasonable estimate, the tax (or benefit) applicable to the item that cannot be estimated shall be reported in the interim period in which the item is reported.” The Company believes its calculation to be a reliable estimate and allows it to properly take into account the usual elements that can impact its annualized book income and its impact on the effective tax rate. As such, the Company is computing its taxable loss and associated income tax provision based on actual results through June 30, 2023.

The Company’s effective tax rate was (11.3)% and (10.3)% for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and (362.8)% and (4.0)% for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The effective tax rate differs from the statutory tax rate of 21% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, due to the valuation allowance on the deferred tax assets.

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

The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. There were no unrecognized tax benefits and no amounts accrued for interest and penalties as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviation from its position.

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

Warrants

The Company accounts for warrants as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the warrant’s specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in FASB ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (“ASC 480”) and ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”). The assessment considers whether the warrants are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and whether the warrants meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the warrants are indexed to the Company’s own common stock and whether the warrant holders could potentially require “net cash settlement” in a circumstance outside of the Company’s control, among other conditions for equity classification. This assessment, which requires the use of professional judgment, is conducted at the time warrant issuance and as of each subsequent quarterly period end date while the warrants are outstanding.

For issued or modified warrants that meet all of the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded as a component of additional paid-in capital at the time of issuance. For issued or modified warrants that do not meet all of the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded at their initial fair value on the date of issuance, and each balance sheet date thereafter. The Company accounts for its outstanding warrants as equity-classified instruments.

Net Loss Per Common Stock

The Company complies with the accounting and disclosure requirements of FASB ASC Topic 260, “Earnings Per Share.” Net loss per common stock is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. At June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company did not have any dilutive securities and other contracts that could, potentially, be exercised or converted into common stock and then share in the earnings of the Company. As a result, diluted loss per common stock is the same as basic loss per common stock for the period presented. The table below presents a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator used to compute basic and diluted net loss per share for each component of common stock for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022:

​

​

Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist of a cash account in a financial institution which, at times may exceed the federal depository insurance coverage of $250,000. At June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had not experienced losses on this account.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

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

Note 3 — Initial Public Offering

On October 21, 2021, the Company sold 11,500,000 Units, including the full exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option to purchase 1,500,000 units, at a purchase price of $10.00 per Unit. Each unit consists of one share of common stock, an aggregate of 11,500,000 shares, and three-quarters of one warrant (“public warrants”), an aggregate of 8,625,000 public warrants. Each whole public warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share of common stock at an exercise price of $11.50 per whole share, subject to adjustment (see Note 7).

All of the 11,500,000 common stock sold as part of the Units in the IPO contain a redemption feature which allows for the redemption of such public shares in connection with the Company’s liquidation, if there is a stockholder vote or tender offer in connection with the Business Combination and in connection with certain amendments to the Company’s certificate of incorporation. In accordance with the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity” and with the SEC and its staff’s guidance on redeemable equity instruments, which has been codified in ASC 480-10-S99, redemption provisions not solely within the control of the Company require common stock subject to redemption to be classified outside of permanent equity.

The common stock is subject to SEC and its staff’s guidance on redeemable equity instruments, which has been codified in ASC 480-10-S99. If it is probable that the equity instrument will become redeemable, the Company has the option to either accrete changes in the redemption value over the period from the date of issuance (or from the date that it becomes probable that the instrument will become redeemable, if later) to the earliest redemption date of the instrument or to recognize changes in the redemption value immediately as they occur and adjust the carrying amount of the instrument to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. The

14

Table of Contents

Company recognizes changes in redemption value immediately as they occur. Immediately upon the closing of the IPO, the Company recognized the accretion from initial book value to redemption amount value. The change in the carrying value of redeemable common stock resulted in charges against additional paid-in capital and accumulated deficit.

As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the common stock reflected on the balance sheets are reconciled in the following table:

Note 4 — Private Placement

Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, the Company’s Sponsor, and the representative of the underwriters and/or certain of their designees or affiliates (collectively, the “initial stockholders”) purchased an aggregate of 675,000 Private Placement Units at a price of $10.00 per unit in a private placement, for an aggregate purchase price of $6,750,000, in a private placement. Each unit consists of one share of common stock, an aggregate of 675,000 shares, and three-quarters of one warrant (“private warrants”), an aggregate of 506,250 private warrants.

Private Placement Units are identical to the units sold in the IPO, except that the Private Placement Units (including the private warrants or private shares issuable upon exercise of such warrants) will not be transferable, assignable or saleable until 30 days after the Business Combination. The initial stockholders have agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of the Private Placement Units and underlying common stock until after the completion of the initial Business Combination.

Additionally, the initial stockholders have agreed to (i) waive their redemption rights with respect to their private shares in connection with the completion of the initial Business Combination, (ii) waive their redemption rights with respect to their private shares in connection with a stockholder vote to approve an amendment to the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation (A) to modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to redeem 100% of the public shares if the Company does not complete the initial Business Combination within the Combination Period or (B) with respect to any other provision relating to stockholders’ rights or pre-initial Business Combination activity and (iii) waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to their private shares if the company fail to complete the initial Business Combination within the Combination Period.

​

Note 5 — Related Party Transactions

Founder Shares

In June 2021, the initial stockholders paid $25,000 in exchange for 2,875,000 shares of common stock (the “Founder Shares”). The number of Founder Shares outstanding was determined based on the expectation that the total size of the IPO would be a maximum of 11,500,000 Units if the underwriter’s over-allotment option is exercised in full, and therefore that such Founder Shares would represent 20% of the outstanding shares after the IPO.

The initial stockholders have agreed not to transfer, assign or sell (i) any of the Founder Shares until nine months after the date of the consummation of the initial Business Combination or earlier if, subsequent to the initial Business Combination, the Company consummates a subsequent liquidation, merger, stock exchange or other similar transaction which results in all of the stockholders having the right to exchange their common stock for cash, securities or other property or (ii) any of the Private Placement Units until the completion of the initial Business Combination. The representative’s Private Placement Units are identical to the Units sold in the IPO except that they may not (including the common stock issuable upon exercise of these warrants), subject to certain limited exceptions, be transferred, assigned or sold by the holders until after the completion of the initial Business Combination. Additionally,

15

Table of Contents

for so long as the warrants underlying the Private Placement Units are held by the representative and its designees, they will not be exercisable more than five years from the commencement date of sales in the IPO in accordance with FINRA Rule 5110(g)(8)(A).

Promissory Note — Related Party, pre-IPO

The Sponsor agreed to loan the Company up to $400,000 to be used for a portion of the expenses of the IPO. These loans were non-interest bearing, unsecured and due at the earlier of February 28, 2022 or the closing of the IPO. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, no amounts were outstanding under the unsecured promissory note.

Promissory Notes

In April and May 2023, the Company secured operational working capital of up to $1,000,000 (“Promissory Notes”) through investors within the Sponsor and other third parties. The Promissory Notes are not interest bearing, and as an incentive for the Promissory Notes provided, the investors were given an aggregate of 165,598 Founder Shares. The fair value of the Promissory Notes was recognized as a decrease in the principal value of the Promissory Notes at the date of issuance and a component of shareholders equity. The principal value of the Promissory Notes will accrete over time to the original issuance value over the life of the Promissory Notes. The principal balance of the Promissory Notes shall be payable upon consummation of an initial Business Combination; provided that the Company shall have the right to extend the Repayment Date for up to 12 months thereafter in the event that the minimum cash transaction proceeds (as described in the definitive agreement with respect to such Business Combination) are not met, or would not be met but for such extension. The principal balance may be prepaid at any time.

At June 30, 2023, the Company had received $981,460 in proceeds related to the Promissory Notes and since the issuance of the Promissory Notes, $911,167 has been recognized in the statement of operations as accrued interest. The investors have no right to redemption on the transferred shares.

Working Capital Loans

In order to finance transaction costs in connection with an intended initial Business Combination, the initial stockholders, officers and directors and their affiliates may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds as may be required (the “Working Capital Loans”). The Working Capital Loans would be evidenced by promissory notes. In the event that the Company is unable to consummate an initial Business Combination, the Company may use a portion of the offering proceeds held outside the Trust Account to repay such loaned amounts but no proceeds from the Trust Account would be used for such repayment. If the Company consummates an initial Business Combination, the notes would either be paid upon consummation of the initial Business Combination, without interest, or, at the lender’s discretion, up to $1,000,000 of the notes may be converted upon consummation of the Business Combination into additional Private Placement Units at a price of $10.00 per unit (which, for example, would result in the holders being issued 100,000 units if the full amount of notes are issued and converted). At June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, no such Working Capital Loans were outstanding.

Administrative Service Fee

The Company entered into an administrative services agreement on October 18, 2021, pursuant to which the Company will pay the Sponsor a total of $10,000 per month for office space, utilities, secretarial support and other administrative and consulting services. Upon completion of the Company’s initial Business Combination or its liquidation, the Company will cease paying these monthly fees. At June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had accrued $51,356 and $21,356, respectively, of administrative service fees. For three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company incurred $30,000 and $60,000 of administrative service fees expense, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company incurred $30,000 and $60,000 of administrative service fees expense, respectively. Included in the Administrative Service Fee paid to the Sponsor is $100,000 the Sponsor pays to Lawson Gow, the Company’s Chief Strategy Officer, in connection with services related to identifying and consummating the initial Business Combination.

Related Party Investments

In December 2022, the Chief Executive Officer of the Company, and a director of the Company, loaned a total of $600,000 to Infrared Cameras Holdings, Inc. (“the Borrower”) bearing interest at 10% per annum increasing to 12% per annum on February 15, 2023. Interest is due upon the Maturity Date, which is six months from the effective dates of the notes.

16

Table of Contents

The unpaid principal balance of these notes and accrued and unpaid interest shall be converted into shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Borrower at the Automatic Conversion Price (“Automatic Conversion”), described below.

The automatic conversion date is immediately before the Borrower consummates an initial public offering or consummates a Business Combination resulting in the Borrower’s shares of common stock being publicly traded.

The Automatic Conversion Price is approximately 50% less than the publicly traded price if the Borrower consummates an initial public offering, or 50% less than the assigned value per share if the Borrow consummates a Business Combination resulting in the Borrower’s shares of common stock being publicly traded.

In April 2023 and May 2023, multiple lenders ("Multiple Lenders") agreed to loan the Company up to $1,000,000. The loans are non-interest bearing, unsecured and due at the earlier of the consummation of an initial Business Combination; provided that the Company has the right to extend the repayment date for up to 12 months. These notes are non-convertible into any securities of the Company. In consideration for the loans, the lenders received an aggregate of 165,598 Founder Shares from the Company's initial shareholders.

In April 2023, the holders of the Company’s Founder Shares (“Holders”) have agreed that in order to induce investors to provide PIPE Financing in connection with the Business Combination Agreement or to commit to a non-redemption agreement, each Holder shall transfer and assign to the Company (or such other Affiliate of the Company or any counterparty in any PIPE Financing the Company may designate (each, a “Financing Counterparty”)), for no consideration, up to 500,000 Founder Shares (the “Transferred Shares”).

The Company has assigned and transferred an aggregate of 165,598 Transferred Shares to Multiple Lenders. Additionally, the Company shall have the right to cause the Holders to assign and transfer the remaining Transferred Shares in any amount up to an additional 300,000 Transferred Shares, to any Financing Counterparty in a PIPE Financing or non-redemption agreement the Company may enter into prior to the closing of the Business Combination Agreement.

Note 6 — Commitments and Contingencies

Registration Rights

The initial stockholders and their permitted transferees can demand that the Company registers the founder shares, the Private Placement Units and the underlying private shares and private warrants, and the units issuable upon conversion of Working Capital Loans and the underlying common stock and warrants, pursuant to an agreement to be signed prior to or on the date of the IPO. The holders of such securities are entitled to demand that the Company registers these securities at any time after the Company consummates an initial Business Combination. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, any holder that is affiliated with an underwriter participating in the IPO may only make a demand on one occasion and only during the five-year period beginning on the commencement date of sales in the IPO. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights on registration statements filed after the Company’s consummation of a Business Combination; provided that any holder that is affiliated with an underwriter participating in the IPO may participate in a “piggy-back” registration only during the seven-year period beginning on the commencement date of sales in the IPO.

Business Combination Marketing Agreement

On October 18, 2021, the Company has engaged Roth Capital Partners, LLC, the representative, as an advisor in connection with the Business Combination to assist it in holding meetings with its stockholders to discuss the potential Business Combination and the target business’ attributes, introduce the Company to potential investors that are interested in purchasing its securities in connection with the initial Business Combination, assist the Company in obtaining stockholder approval for the Business Combination and assist the Company with its press releases and public filings in connection with the Business Combination. The Company will pay the representative a cash fee for such services upon the consummation of the initial Business Combination in an amount equal to 3.5% of the gross proceeds of the IPO, or $4,025,000 (exclusive of any applicable finders’ fees which might become payable).

Additionally, the Company engaged Craig-Hallum Capital Group LLC (“Craig-Hallum”) in February 2022 to act as its placement agent and its merger and acquisition advisor in connection with any offering in respect to a Business Combination with a Target. Craig-Hallum will assist with identifying selecting a potential target company, assisting with the formation of a letter of intent (“LOI”), evaluating proposals for potential Business Combination, assisting in structuring the formation of a potential Business Combination, identifying and selecting investors and other activities related to a potential Business Combination. In the event an offering of securities in connection with a Business Combination with a Target or any other evidence of commitment with a Business Combination with a Target, the Company will pay Craig-Hallum a cash fee of 6.0% of the gross proceeds raised and only if Craig-Hallum is the source of introduction to the specific transaction.

​

Additionally, if the Company completes a Business Combination with a target during the term of the contract with Craig Hallum, Craig-Hallum will be owed an M&A Advisory Fee in stock equal to the greater of (i) 2.0% of the aggregate transaction value of the target; and (ii) 250,000 shares of newly issued common stock registered within 90 days of closing of the Business Combination. Roth Capital will be due 30% of the M&A Advisory Fee in stock.

​

Legal fees

​

In October 2022 the Company has engaged ArentFox Schiff LLP (“AFS”) to assist with various routine and Business Combination related matters. AFS has agreed to perform the foregoing services at a discounted rate, and, subject to final consummation of the Business Combination, the Company will pay an additional amount to AFS equal to the cumulative amount earned by AFS up until the date of the consummation of the Business Combination. To the extent the Business Combination is not completed, the Company will not be required to pay AFS any additional amounts in excess of the discounted rate. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 the Company has incurred $65,813 and $145,519, respectively, in legal fees. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 the Company has incurred $10,500 and $21,000, respectively, in legal fees. At June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, $99,347 and $223,748 was unpaid.

Note 7 — Stockholders’ Equity

Preferred Stock

The Company is authorized to issue 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock with a par value of $0.0001 per share. At June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there were no shares of preferred stock issued or outstanding.

Common Stock

The Company is authorized to issue 100,000,000 shares of common stock with a par value of $0.0001 per share. Holders of the common stock are entitled to one vote for each common stock. At June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there were 3,550,000 shares of common stock issued and outstanding excluding 1,634,944 and 11,500,000 shares subject to possible redemption, respectively.

Warrants

As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there were 8,625,000 public warrants and 506,250 private warrants outstanding. Each whole warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share of the Company’s common stock at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment as described herein. If (x) the Company issues additional shares of common stock or equity-linked securities for capital raising purposes in connection with the closing of the initial Business Combination at an issue price or effective issue price of less than $9.20 per share (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 Company’s initial stockholders or their affiliates, without taking into account any founders’ 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 volume weighted average trading price of the common stock during the 20 trading day period starting on the trading day prior to the day on which the Company consummates the 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, and 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.

Each whole warrant entitles the registered holder to purchase one share of the common stock at any time commencing 30 days after the completion of the initial Business Combination and will expire five years after the completion of the initial Business Combination or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.

No warrants will be exercisable for cash unless the Company has an effective and current registration statement covering the issuance of the common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants and a current prospectus relating to such common stock. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a registration statement covering the issuance of the common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants is not effective within 60 days following the consummation of the initial Business Combination, warrant holders may, until such time as there is such an effective registration statement and during any period when the Company shall have failed to maintain such an effective registration statement, exercise warrants on a cashless basis pursuant to an available exemption from registration under the Securities Act. If an exemption from registration is not available, holders will not be able to exercise their warrants on a cashless basis.

19

Table of Contents

Except as described above, no warrants will be exercisable and the Company will not be obligated to issue common stock unless at the time a holder seeks to exercise such warrant, a prospectus relating to the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants is current and the shares of common stock have been registered or qualified or deemed to be exempt under the securities laws of the state of residence of the holder of the warrants. Under the terms of the warrant agreement, the Company has agreed to use its best efforts to meet these conditions and to maintain a current prospectus relating to the common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants until the expiration of the warrants. However, the Company cannot assure you that the Company will be able to do so and, if the Company does not maintain a current prospectus relating to the common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants, holders will be unable to exercise their warrants and the Company will not be required to settle any such warrant exercise. If the prospectus relating to the common stock issuable upon the exercise of the warrants is not current or if the common stock is not qualified or exempt from qualification in the jurisdictions in which the holders of the warrants reside, the Company will not be required to net cash settle or cash settle the warrant exercise, the warrants may have no value, the market for the warrants may be limited and the warrants may expire worthless.

Redemption of warrants

Once the warrants become exercisable, the Company may redeem the outstanding warrants, in whole and not in part, at a price of $0.01 per warrant:

If the Company calls the warrants for redemption as described above, the management will have the option to require all holders that wish to exercise warrants to do so on a “cashless basis.” In such event, each holder would pay the exercise price by surrendering the warrants in exchange for that number of shares of common stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the product of the number of shares of common stock underlying the surrendered warrants, multiplied by the difference between the exercise price of the surrendered warrants and the fair market value by (y) the fair market value. The “fair market value” for this purpose shall mean the average reported last sale price of the common stock for the 10 trading days ending on the trading day prior to the date of exercise. For example, if a holder held 150 warrants and the fair market value on the trading date prior to exercise was $15.00, that holder would receive 35 shares without the payment of any additional cash consideration. If an exemption from registration is not available, holders will not be able to exercise their warrants on a cashless basis.

​

Note 8 — Fair Value Measurements

At June 30, 2023, substantially all of the assets held in the Trust Account were held in money market funds which are invested primarily in U.S. Treasury securities. In accordance with ASC 320, “Investments—Debt Securities”, the Company classifies its investments in money market funds as trading securities. At June 30, 2023, the Company had $17,238,126 in its Trust Account. The estimated fair values of investments held in Trust Account are determined using available market information. Fair values of these investments are determined by Level 1 inputs utilizing quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets.

As of December 31, 2022, assets held in the Trust Account were held in cash and US Treasury Bills. All of the Company’s investments in US Treasury Bills held in the Trust Account are classified as held-to-maturity securities. Held-to-maturity securities are presented on the balance sheet at amortizable cost at inception and at the end of each subsequent reporting period.

There were no impairments with respect to the held-to-maturity investments as of December 31, 2022. All investments mature within one year of the date of these unaudited condensed financial statements; however, they are classified as non-current assets due to contractual restrictions that limit access to the cash and securities held in the Trust Account until the consummation of the Company’s initial Business Combination.

Note 9 — Subsequent Events

The Company evaluated subsequent events and transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date up to the date that the unaudited condensed financial statements were issued. Based upon this review, the Company did not identify any subsequent events that would have required adjustment or disclosure in the unaudited condensed financial statements, other than noted below.

On July 14, 2023, the Company deposited $81,747 in the Trust Account extending the Extension date to September 20, 2023.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. We have based these forward-looking statements on our current expectations and projections about future events. These forward-looking statements are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and assumptions about us that may cause our actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may,” “should,” “could,” “would,” “expect,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “continue,” or the negative of such terms or other similar expressions. Factors that might cause or contribute to such a discrepancy include, but are not limited to, those described in our other SEC filings.

​

Overview

We are blank check company incorporated as a Delaware corporation on May 14, 2021 and formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar Business Combination with one or more businesses. We intend to consummate an initial Business Combination using cash from the proceeds of our initial public offering (the “IPO”) that closed on October 21, 2021 and the Private Placement, and from additional issuances of, if any, our equity and our debt, or a combination of cash, equity and debt. On December 5, 2022, we entered into a Business Combination Agreement with Infrared Cameras Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation, which was amended on June 27, 2023. See Item 1. Business – Recent Developments for more information.

On April 14, 2023, we held a special meeting of stockholders (the “Meeting”), at which the Company’s stockholder of record voted to approve the amendment of the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation to extend the date by which the Company must consummate a Business Combination or, if it fails to do so, cease its operations and redeem or repurchase 100% of the shares of the Company’s common stock issued in the Company’s initial public offering, from April 20, 2023, monthly for up to eight additional months at the election of the Company, ultimately until as late as December 20, 2023 (“Extension”). With this amendment, the Company has agreed to deposit into the Trust Account $0.05 for each outstanding public share for each monthly extension of the date by which the Company must complete its initial Business Combination. Since the Meeting, we have deposited $245,242 into the Trust Account to extend the date by which it must consummate a Business Combination or cease operations until August 20, 2023.

In connection with the Extension, 9,865,056 shares of the Company’s common stock were redeemed (the “Redemption”), with 5,184,944 shares of Common Stock remaining outstanding after the Redemption, of which 1,634,944 shares of Common Stock remaining outstanding after the Redemption are shares issued in connection with our IPO (the “Public Shares”). Our public stockholders will continue to have the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares upon the completion of our initial Business Combination at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount on deposit in the trust account as of two business days prior to the vote to approve the consummation of our initial Business Combination, including interest (which interest shall be net of taxes payable) divided by the number of then outstanding Public Shares.

In April and May 2023, we secured operational working capital of $1,000,000 (“Promissory Notes”) through investors affiliated with the Sponsor and other third parties. The Promissory Notes are not interest bearing are not convertible into any securities of the company. As an incentive for the Promissory Notes provided, the investors were given an aggregate of 165,598 Founder Shares. The principal balance of the Promissory Notes shall be payable upon consummation of an initial Business Combination; provided that we shall have the right to extend the Repayment Date for up to 12 months thereafter in the event that the minimum cash transaction proceeds (as described in the definitive agreement with respect to such Business Combination) are not met, or would not be met but for such extension. The principal balance may be prepaid at any time. The investors have no right to redemption on the transferred shares.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

On October 21, 2021, we consummated our initial public offering (the “IPO”) of 11,500,000 Units, including the full exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option to purchase 1,500,000 units, at a purchase price of $10.00 per Unit generating a profit of $115,000,000.

Simultaneously with the consummation of the IPO, we consummated the private placement 675,000 units (the “Private Placement Units”) at a price of $10.00 per Private Placement Unit to the Sponsor and the representative of the underwriters and/or certain of their designees or affiliates, generating gross proceeds to us of $6,750,000.

Following the closing of the IPO on October 21, 2021, $117,300,000 ($10.20 per Unit) from the net proceeds of the sale of Units in the IPO and a portion of the proceeds of the sale of the Private Placement Units was deposited into a trust account (“Trust Account”) located in the United States with Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company acting as trustee, and will be invested only in U.S. government treasury bills, notes or bonds with a maturity of 185 days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act and which invest solely in U.S. Treasuries. Except as set forth below, the proceeds held in the Trust Account will not be released until the earlier of: (1) the completion of the initial Business Combination within the required time period; (2) our redemption of 100% of the outstanding public shares if we have not completed an initial Business Combination in the required time period; and (3) the redemption of any public shares properly tendered in connection with a stockholder vote to amend our amended and restated certificate of incorporation (A) to modify the substance or timing of our obligation to allow redemption of public shares as described in the IPO or redeem 100% of the public shares if we do not complete the initial Business Combination within the required time period or (B) with respect to any other provision relating to stockholders’ rights or pre-Business Combination activity. Additionally, we issued $1,000,000 in Promissory Notes to related parties and third party investors.

As of June 30, 2023, we had $255,452 in our operating bank account, and working capital deficit of $1,327,066, excluding taxes payable from the Trust Account. Our liquidity needs through June 30, 2023 were satisfied through a payment from the Sponsor of $25,000 for the Founder Shares to cover certain offering costs and the loan under an unsecured promissory note from the Sponsor of up to $400,000. The outstanding balance under the promissory note of $323,190 was paid in full on October 22, 2021.

After consummation of the IPO on October 21, 2021, we had $2,150,000 of private placement proceeds receivable from the Sponsor which was received into our operating bank account on October 22, 2021. Additionally, we issued $1,000,000 in Promissory Notes. In order to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, our Sponsor or an affiliate of our Sponsor or certain of our officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, provide us Working Capital Loans. As of June 30, 2023, there were no amounts outstanding under any Working Capital Loans.

​

Going Concern

We anticipate that the $255,452 held outside the trust account as of June 30, 2023 might not be sufficient to allow us to operate for at least 12 months from the issuance of the financial statements, assuming that a Business Combination is not consummated during that time. Until consummation of a Business Combination, we will be using the funds not held in the Trust Account, and any additional Working Capital Loans (as defined in Note 5 of the Financial Statements) from the initial shareholders, certain of our officers and directors (see Note 5 of the Financial Statements), for identifying and evaluating prospective acquisition candidates, performing business due diligence on prospective target businesses, traveling to and from the offices, plants or similar locations of prospective target businesses, reviewing corporate documents and material agreements of prospective target businesses, selecting the target business to acquire and structuring, negotiating and consummating the Business Combination.

We can raise additional capital through Working Capital Loans from the initial shareholders, certain of our officers, and directors (see Note 5 of the Financial Statements), or through loans from third parties. None of the sponsor, officers or directors are under any obligation to advance funds to, or to invest in, us. If we are unable to raise additional capital, we may be required to take additional measures to conserve liquidity, which could include, but not necessarily be limited to, curtailing operations, suspending the pursuit of our business plan, and reducing overhead expenses. We cannot provide any assurance that new financing will be available to us on commercially acceptable terms, if at all. These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time, which is considered to be one year from the issuance date of the financial statements.

Table of Contents

We have until August 20, 2023 (or until December 20, 2023 with additional funding of the Trust Account) to consummate a Business Combination. It is uncertain that we will be able to consummate a Business Combination by that date, which is less than 12 months from the issuance date of these unaudited condensed financial statements. If a Business Combination is not consummated by the required date, there will be a mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution. In connection with our assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with the authoritative guidance in Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-15, “Disclosure of Uncertainties About an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern,” we have determined that mandatory liquidation, and subsequent dissolution, should we be unable to complete a Business Combination, raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern for the next 12 months from the issuance of these unaudited condensed financial statements. No adjustments have been made to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities should we be required to liquidate after August 20, 2023.

Risks and Uncertainties

Management continues to evaluate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and Russia-Ukraine war and has concluded that while it is reasonably possible that the virus and war could have a negative effect on our financial position, results of our 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.

​

Inflation Reduction Act of 2022

On August 16, 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (the “IR Act”) was signed into federal law. The IR Act provides for, among other things, a new U.S. federal 1% excise tax on certain repurchases of stock by publicly traded U.S. domestic corporations and certain U.S. domestic subsidiaries of publicly traded foreign corporations occurring on or after January 1, 2023. The excise tax is imposed on the repurchasing corporation itself, not its shareholders from which shares are repurchased. The amount of the excise tax is generally 1% of the fair market value of the shares repurchased at the time of the repurchase. However, for purposes of calculating the excise tax, repurchasing corporations are permitted to net the fair market value of certain new stock issuances against the fair market value of stock repurchases during the same taxable year. In addition, certain exceptions apply to the excise tax. The U.S. Department of the Treasury (the “Treasury”) has been given authority to provide regulations and other guidance to carry out and prevent the abuse or avoidance of the excise tax.

Any redemption or other repurchase that occurs after December 31, 2022, in connection with a Business Combination, extension vote or otherwise, may be subject to the excise tax. Whether and to what extent we would be subject to the excise tax in connection with a Business Combination, extension vote or otherwise would depend on a number of factors, including (i) the fair market value of the redemptions and repurchases in connection with the Business Combination, extension or otherwise, (ii) the structure of a Business Combination, (iii) the nature and amount of any “PIPE” or other equity issuances in connection with a Business Combination (or otherwise issued not in connection with a Business Combination but issued within the same taxable year of a Business Combination) and (iv) the content of regulations and other guidance from the Treasury. In addition, because the excise tax would be payable by us and not by the redeeming holder, the mechanics of any required payment of the excise tax have not been determined. The foregoing could cause a reduction in the cash available on hand to complete a Business Combination and in our ability to complete a Business Combination.

Results of Operations

As of June 30, 2023, we had not commenced any operations. All activity for the period from May 14, 2021 (inception) through June 30, 2023 relates to our formation and the Initial Public Offering. We have neither engaged in any operations nor generated any revenues to date. We will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of our initial Business Combination, at the earliest. We will generate non-operating income in the form of interest income on cash and cash equivalents from the proceeds derived from the Initial Public Offering. We expect to incur increased expenses as a result of being a public company (for legal, financial reporting, accounting and auditing compliance), as well as for due diligence expenses.

For the three months ended June 30, 2023, we had a net loss of $959,222, which consisted of operating costs of $432,334, accrued interest on Promissory Notes of $911,167 and provision for income taxes of $97,259, offset by interest earned on investments held in Trust Account of $481,538.

For the six months ended June 30, 2023, we had a net loss of $454,030, which consisted of operating costs of $952,519, accrued interest on promissory note of $911,167 and provision for income taxes of $355,924, offset by interest earned on investments held in Trust Account of $1,765,580.

For the three months ended June 30, 2022, we had a net loss of $130,227, which consisted of $314,387 in formation and operating costs and provision for income taxes of $12,153, offset by interest earned on investments held in Trust Account of $196,313.

For the six months ended June 30, 2022, we had a net loss of $317,120, which consisted of $541,562 in formation and operating costs and provision for income taxes of $12,153, offset by interest earned on investments held in Trust Account of $236,595.

Contractual Obligations

We do not have any long-term debt obligations, capital lease obligations, operating lease obligations, purchase obligations or long-term liabilities.

​

Administrative Services Agreement

We entered into an administrative services agreement on October 18, 2021, pursuant to which we will pay the Sponsor a total of $10,000 per month for office space, utilities, secretarial support and other administrative and consulting services. Upon completion of our initial Business Combination or our liquidation, we will cease paying these monthly fees. At June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we had accrued $51,356 and $21,356, respectively, of administrative service fees, net of payments made. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company incurred $30,000 and $60,000 of administrative service fees expense, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company incurred $30,000 and $60,000 of administrative service fees expense, respectively. Included in the Administrative Service Fee paid to the Sponsor is $100,000 the Sponsor pays to Lawson Gow, the Company’s Chief Strategy Officer, in connection with services related to identifying and consummating the initial Business Combination.

​

Registration Rights

Our initial stockholders and their permitted transferees can demand that we register the founder shares, the Private Placement Units and the underlying private shares and private warrants, and the units issuable upon conversion of Working Capital Loans and the underlying common stock and warrants, pursuant to an agreement to be signed prior to or on the date of the IPO. The holders of such securities are entitled to demand that we register these securities at any time after we consummate an initial Business Combination. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, any holder that is affiliated with an underwriter participating in the IPO may only make a demand on one occasion and only during the five-year period beginning on the commencement date of sales in the IPO. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights on registration statements filed after our consummation of a Business Combination; provided that any holder that is affiliated with an underwriter participating in the IPO may participate in a “piggy-back” registration only during the seven-year period beginning on the commencement date of sales in the IPO.

Business Combination Marketing Agreement

The Company has engaged Roth Capital Partners, LLC, the representative, as an advisor in connection with the Business Combination to assist it in holding meetings with its stockholders to discuss the potential Business Combination and the target business’ attributes, introduce the Company to potential investors that are interested in purchasing its securities in connection with the initial Business Combination, assist the Company in obtaining stockholder approval for the Business Combination and assist the Company with its press releases and public filings in connection with the Business Combination. The Company will pay the representative a cash fee for such services upon the consummation of the initial Business Combination in an amount equal to 3.5% of the gross proceeds of the IPO, or $4,025,000 (exclusive of any applicable finders’ fees which might become payable).

Additionally, the Company engaged Craig-Hallum Capital Group LLC (“Craig-Hallum”) to act as its placement agent and its merger and acquisition advisor in connection with any offering in respect to a Business Combination with a Target. Craig-Hallum will assist with identifying selecting a potential target company, assisting with the formation of a letter of intent (“LOI”), evaluating proposals for potential Business Combination, assisting in structuring the formation of a potential Business Combination, identifying and selecting investors and other activities related to a potential Business Combination. In the event an offering of securities in connection with a Business Combination with a Target or any other evidence of commitment with a Business Combination with a Target, the Company

will pay Craig-Hallum a cash fee of 6.0% of the gross proceeds raised and only if Craig-Hallum is the source of introduction to the specific transaction.

Additionally, if the Company completes a Business Combination with a target during the term of the contract with Craig Hallum, Craig-Hallum will be owed an M&A Advisory Fee in stock equal to the greater of (i) 2.0% of the aggregate transaction value of the target; and (ii) 250,000 shares of newly issued common stock registered within 90 days of closing of the Business Combination. Roth Capital will be due 30% of the M&A Advisory Fee in stock.

Legal fees

The Company has engaged ArentFox Schiff LLP (“AFS”) to assist with various routine and Business Combination related matters. AFS has agreed to perform the foregoing services at a discounted rate, and, subject to final consummation of the Business Combination, the Company will pay an additional amount to AFS equal to the cumulative amount earned by AFS up until the date of the consummation of the Business Combination. To the extent the Business Combination is not completed, the Company will not be required to pay AFS any additional amounts in excess of the discounted rate.

Critical Accounting Policies

Common Stock Subject to Possible Redemption

We will account for our common stock subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in FASB ASC Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” Common stock subject to mandatory redemption (if any) is classified as a liability instrument and measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable common stock (including shares of 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 our control) is classified as temporary equity. At all other times, common stock is classified as stockholders’ equity. Our Common stock will feature certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of our control and will be subject to the occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, common stock subject to possible redemption will be presented at redemption value as temporary equity, outside of the stockholders’ equity section of our condensed balance sheets.

​

Net Loss Per Common Stock

We comply with the accounting and disclosure requirements of FASB ASC Topic 260, “Earnings Per Share.” Net loss per common stock is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. At June 30, 2023 and 2022, we did not have any dilutive securities and other contracts that could, potentially, be exercised or converted into common stock and then share in our earnings. As a result, diluted loss per common stock is the same as basic loss per common stock for the period presented.

Warrants

We account for warrants as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the warrant’s specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in FASB ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (“ASC 480”) and ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”). The assessment considers whether the warrants are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and whether the warrants meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the warrants are indexed to our own common stock and whether the warrant holders could potentially require “net cash settlement” in a circumstance outside of our control, among other conditions for equity classification. This assessment, which requires the use of professional judgment, is conducted at the time warrant issuance and as of each subsequent quarterly period end date while the warrants are outstanding.

​

For issued or modified warrants that meet all of the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded as a component of additional paid-in capital at the time of issuance. For issued or modified warrants that do not meet all of the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded at their initial fair value on the date of issuance, and each balance sheet date thereafter. We account for our outstanding warrants as equity-classified instruments.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

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

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

​

Inflation

We do not believe that inflation had a material impact on our business or operating results during the period presented.

​

Emerging Growth Company Status

​

We are an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, (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, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our 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 a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. We have 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, us, 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 our unaudited condensed financial statements with another public company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.

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 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 and accounting officer or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

27

Table of Contents

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 defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2023. Based upon this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial and accounting officer have concluded that during the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to the identification of material weaknesses in our internal control due to inadequate management review of our financial statements. Specifically, the Company lacks the controls needed to assure that the accounting for prepaid expenses, promissory notes, accounts payable and accrued expenses are accurate and complete. A material weakness, as defined in the SEC regulations, is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. In light of this material weaknesses, we performed additional analysis as deemed necessary to ensure that our financial statements were prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Management plans to remediate the material weakness by enhancing our processes to identify and appropriately apply applicable accounting requirements and by increasing communication among our personnel and third-party professionals with whom we consult regarding accounting applications. The elements of our remediation plan can only be accomplished over time, and these initiatives may not ultimately have the intended effects.

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

Other than the material weaknesses discussed above, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
