Note 1 – Description of Organization and Business Operations

Good Works II Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) was incorporated in Delaware on July 27, 2020. The Company is a blank check company formed for the purpose of entering into a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or other similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities (the “Business Combination”).

The Company is an early stage and emerging growth company and, as such, the Company is subject to all of the risks associated with early stage and emerging growth companies.

As of JuneSeptember 30, 2022, the Company has not commenced operations. All activity for the period from July 27, 2020 (inception) through JuneSeptember 30, 2022 relates to the Company’s formation, initial public offering (“Initial Public Offering” or “IPO”) and activities in connection with the search for a Business Combination. The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of a Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company will generate non-operating income in the form of interest income from the proceeds derived from the Initial Public Offering and placed in the Trust Account (defined below).

Initial Public Offering

On July 14, 2021, the Company completed the sale of 23,000,000 units (the “Units” and, with respect to the shares of common stock included in the Units being offered, the “Public Shares”, and with respect to the holders of those shares, “Public Stockholders”) at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $230,000,000 which is described in Note 3.

Simultaneous with the closing of the IPO, the Company completed the sale of 350,000 Private Units (the “Private Units”) at a price of $10.00 per Private Unit in a private placement to certain funds and accounts managed by Glazer Capital LLC, Magnetar Financial LLC, Mint Tower Capital Management B.V., Periscope Capital Inc., and Polar Asset Management Partners Inc. (collectively, the “Anchor Investors”), generating gross proceeds of $3,500,000, which is described in Note 4.

Initial Business Combination

The Company’s management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and the sale of the Private Units, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be applied generally toward consummating a Business Combination. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to complete a Business Combination successfully. The Company must complete a Business Combination having an aggregate fair market value of at least 80% of the assets held in the Trust Account (as defined below) (excluding taxes payable on income earned on the Trust Account) at the time of the agreement to enter into an initial Business Combination. The Company will only complete a Business Combination if the post-transaction company owns or acquires 50% or more of the outstanding voting securities of the target or otherwise acquires a controlling interest in the target sufficient for it not to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”). Management agreed that an amount equal to at least $10.00 per Unit sold in the Initial Public Offering will be held in a trust account (“Trust Account”), located in the United States and invested only in U.S. government securities, within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act, with a maturity of 180 days or less or in any open-ended investment company that holds itself out as a money market fund selected by the Company meeting the conditions of Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act, as determined by the Company, until the earlier of: (i) the completion of a Business Combination and (ii) the distribution of the Trust Account, as described below.

The Company will provide its Public Stockholders with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares upon the completion of a Business Combination either (i) in connection with a stockholder meeting called to approve the Business Combination or (ii) by means of a tender offer. The decision as to whether the Company will seek stockholder approval of a Business Combination or conduct a tender offer will be made by the Company, solely in its discretion. The public stockholders will be entitled to redeem their Public Shares for a pro rata portion of the amount then in the Trust Account (initially anticipated to be $10.00 per Public Share, plus any pro rata interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay its tax obligations. In the event of a complete liquidation of the Company, the Trust Account could be further reduced by up to $100,000 for expenses of the liquidation). There will be no redemption rights upon the completion of a Business Combination with respect to the Company’s warrants.

The Public Shares subject to redemption are recorded at redemption value and classified as temporary equity in accordance with the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” The Company will proceed with a Business Combination only if the Company has net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001 immediately before or after such consummation of a Business Combination and, if the Company seeks stockholder approval, a majority of the shares voted are voted in favor of the Business Combination. If a stockholder vote is not required by law and the Company does not decide to hold a stockholder vote for business or other legal reasons, the Company will, pursuant to its Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation”), conduct the redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and file tender offer documents with the SEC containing substantially the same information as would be included in a proxy statement prior to completing a Business Combination. If, however, stockholder approval of the transaction is required by law, or the Company decides to obtain stockholder approval for business or legal reasons, the Company will offer to redeem shares in conjunction with a proxy solicitation pursuant to the proxy rules and not pursuant to the tender offer rules. If the Company seeks stockholder approval in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor, an affiliate of I-Bankers Securities, Inc.(“I-Bankers Securities”), the representative of the underwriters for the Company’s Initial Public Offering, and the Company’s management and directors have agreed to vote their Founder Shares and any Public Shares purchased during or after the Initial Public Offering (a) in favor of approving a Business Combination and (b) not to convert any shares in connection with a stockholder vote to approve a Business Combination or sell any shares to the Company in a tender offer in connection with a Business Combination. Additionally, each public stockholder may elect to redeem their Public Shares irrespective of whether they vote for or against the proposed transaction or don’t vote at all.

The Sponsor and the Company’s management and Directors have agreed (a) to waive their redemption rights with respect to their Founder Shares and any Public Shares held by them in connection with the completion of a Business Combination, (b) to waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to their Founder Shares if the Company fails to consummate a Business Combination and (c) not to propose an amendment to the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation that would affect a public stockholders’ ability to convert or sell their shares to the Company in connection with a Business Combination or affect the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to redeem 100% of its Public Shares if the Company does not complete a Business Combination, unless the Company provides the public stockholders with the opportunity to redeem their Public Shares in conjunction with any such amendment. The Anchor Investors have agreed (a) to waive their redemption rights with respect to their Founder Shares and Private Shares held in connection with the completion of a Business Combination, and (b) to waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to their Founder Shares and Private Shares if the Company fails to consummate a Business Combination.

The Company hasinitially had 15 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering to complete a Business Combination (the “Combination Period”, unless it undertakes to extend the Combination Period, which would require an amendment to the Company'sCompany’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, which may not be affected unless the Company provides the public stockholders with the opportunity to redeem their Public Shares in conjunction with any such amendment). On October 11, 2022, the Company held a vote to amend its amended and restated certificate of incorporation to extend the date by which the Company must consummate a Business Combination from October 14, 2022 to April 14, 2023 (the “Extension Meeting”). At the Extension Meeting, the Company’s stockholders elected redemptions of 20,525,530 shares at a redemption value of $10.04, which resulted in an aggregate redemption value of $206,139,296 (see Note 9). If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the Company will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem the Public Shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay taxes, divided by the number of then outstanding Public Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public stockholders’ rights as stockholders (including the right to receive further liquidating distributions, if any), subject to applicable law, and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the Company’s remaining stockholders and the Company’s board of directors, dissolve and liquidate, subject in each case to the Company’s obligations under Delaware law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law.

In order to protect the amounts held in the Trust Account, the Sponsor has agreed to be liable to the Company if and to the extent any claims by a third party for services rendered or products sold to the Company, or a prospective target business with which the Company has discussed entering into a transaction agreement, reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account to below $10.00 per Public Share, except as to any claims by a third party who executed an agreement with the Company waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind they may have in or to any monies held in the Trust Account and except as to any claims under the Company’s indemnity of the underwriters of Initial Public Offering against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). Moreover, in the event that an executed waiver is deemed to be unenforceable against a third party, the Sponsor will not be responsible to the extent of any liability for such third-party claims. The Company will seek to reduce the possibility that the Sponsor will have to indemnify the Trust Account due to claims of creditors by endeavoring to have all vendors, service providers, prospective target businesses or other entities with which the Company does business, execute agreements with the Company waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to monies held in the Trust Account.

Risks and Uncertainties

Management continues to evaluate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and has concluded that while it is reasonably possible that the virus could have a negative effect on the Company’s financial position, results of its operations and/or search for a target company, the specific impact is not readily determinable as of the date of the financial statements. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of JuneSeptember 30, 2022, the Company had approximately $1.0$0.7 million in its operating bank account and working capital of approximately $1.5$0.7 million. 

The Company’s liquidity needs up to July 14, 2021, the date of the IPO, were satisfied through a payment from the Sponsor for the Founder Shares and the loan under an unsecured promissory note from the Sponsor of $150,000 to cover certain offering costs prior to the consummation of the IPO. The promissory note was fully repaid as of July 14, 2021. Subsequent to the consummation of the IPO, the Company’s liquidity has been satisfied through the net proceeds from the consummation of the IPO and the private placement held outside of the Trust Account. 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 4). As of JuneSeptember 30, 2022, there were no amounts outstanding under any Working Capital Loans.

The Company incurred, and expects to continue to incur, additional significant costs in pursuit of its financing and acquisition plans including the proposed Business Combination. In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 205-40, “Presentation of Financial Statements-Going Concern,” the Company hashad until October 14, 2022 to consummate a Business Combination.Combination, unless extended via an amendment to their Certificate of Incorporation. On October 11, 2022, the Company held a vote to amend its amended and restated certificate of incorporation to extend the date by which the Company must consummate a Business Combination from October 14, 2022 to April 14, 2023 (the “Extension Meeting”) (see Note 9). It is uncertain that the Company will be able to consummate a Business Combination by this time. If a Business Combination is not consummated by this date, there will be a mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution of the Company. Management has determined that the liquidity condition and mandatory liquidation, should a Business Combination not occur, and potential subsequent dissolution raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. No adjustments have been made to the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities should the Company be required to liquidate after OctoberApril 14, 2022.2023.

The Company does not believe it will need to raise additional funds in order to meet the expenditures required for operating its business. However, if the Company’s estimate of the costs of identifying a target business, undertaking in-depth due diligence and negotiating a Business Combination are less than the actual amount necessary to do so, it may have insufficient funds available to operate prior to the Business Combination. Moreover, the Company maywill need to obtain additional financing either to complete the Business Combination or because it may become obligated to redeem a significant number of Public Shares upon consummation of the Business Combination, in which case the Company may issue additional securities or incur debt in connection with such Business Combination. Subject to compliance with applicable securities laws, the Company would only complete such financing simultaneously with the completion of the Business Combination. If the Company is unable to complete the Business Combination because it does not have sufficient funds available, the Company will be forced to cease operations and liquidate the Trust Account. In addition, following the Business Combination, if cash on hand is insufficient, the Company may need to obtain additional financing in order to meet its obligations.

Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies 

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X of the SEC. Certain information or footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC for interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of a normal recurring nature, which are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, operating results and cash flows for the periods presented.

Emerging Growth Company

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

Further, Section 102(b)(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 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 financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the Company’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.

Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.

Cash and cash equivalentsReclassification of Prior Period Presentation

Certain of the Company’s prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the reported results of operations in those prior periods or in the current period.

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 had cash of $1,030,654$699,231 and $1,335,598 as of JuneSeptember 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

Cash and securities held in Trust Account

As of JuneSeptember 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the assets held in the Trust Account consisted of cash and U.S. Treasury securitiesa money market account in the amount of $230,214,069$231,258,637 and $230,036,932, respectively. During the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2022, the Company withdrew $0 and $36,932, respectively, from the Trust in accordance with the Trust Agreement to pay its taxes.taxes, if any.

Offering costs

The Company complies with the requirements of the ASC 340-10-S99-1 and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) Topic 5A - “Expenses of Offering”. Offering costs consist principally of professional and registration fees incurred through the consolidated balance sheet date that are related to the IPO and were charged to stockholders’ equity upon the completion of the IPO. Accordingly, as of JuneSeptember 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, offering costs in the aggregate of $3,962,343 have been charged to stockholders’ equity (consisting of $600,000 in underwriters’ discount, $362,343 of direct and incremental fees related to the IPO and $3,000,000 related to the excess of the fair value over consideration received, for the 300,000 representative shares issued to I-Bankers)

Fair Value Measurements

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

Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations 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. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2022, the Company has not experienced losses on this account and management believes the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such account.

Common Stock Subject to Possible Redemption

The Company accounts for common stock subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” Common stock subject to mandatory redemption (if any) are classified as liability instruments and are measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable common stock (including 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) are classified as temporary equity. At all other times, common stock is classified as stockholders’ equity. The Company’s common stock features certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of its control and subject to the occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, 23,000,000 shares of common stock subject to possible redemption are presented as temporary equity, outside of the stockholders’ equity section of the balance sheet.

The Company recognizes changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and adjusts the carrying value of redeemable ordinary shares to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Such changes are reflected in additional paid-in capital, or in the absence of additional capital, in accumulated deficit. On July 14, 2021, the Company recorded an accretion of $3,962,343 in additional paid-in capital. Subsequent to the date of these financial statements, on October 11, 2022, the Company held a vote to amend its amended and restated certificate of incorporation to extend the date by which the Company must consummate a Business Combination from October 14, 2022 to April 14, 2023 (the “Extension Meeting”). At the Extension Meeting, the Company’s stockholders elected redemptions of 20,525,530 shares at a redemption value of $10.04 for an aggregate redemption value of $206,139,296 (see Note 9). 

Income Taxes

The Company follows the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes under ASC 740, “Income Taxes.” Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statements carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that included the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

ASC 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. There were no unrecognized tax benefits and no amounts accrued for interest and penalties as of JuneSeptember 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviation from its position. The Company is subject to income tax examinations by major taxing authorities since inception.

The effective tax rate was 158.6% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively, and 0.0% for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021. The effective tax rates differ from the statutory tax rate of 21.0% due to the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets.

The Company recorded a full valuation allowance for all periods presented. As such the provision for income taxes was zero$219,634 for the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2022 and the deferred tax asset was zero as of JuneSeptember 30, 2022, consisting entirely of current federal income tax, and December 31, 2021.2021, respectively.

Net Income (loss)(Loss) Per Common Share

The Company complies with accounting and disclosure requirements of FASB ASC Topic 260, “Earnings Per Share”. Net lossincome (loss) per share is computed by dividing net lossincome (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. The Company applies the two-class method in calculating income (loss) per share of common stock. Accretion associated with the redeemable shares of common stock is excluded from income per common share as the redemption value approximates fair value.

The calculation of diluted income (loss) per share of common stock does not consider the effect of the warrants issued in connection with the (i) Initial Public Offering, and (ii) the private placement since the exercise of the warrants is contingent upon the occurrence of future events. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2022, the Company did not have any dilutive securities or 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 net income (loss) per common share is the same as basic net income (loss) per common share for the periods presented.

The following tables reflect the calculation of basic and diluted net loss per common share:

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-06, Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity. The update simplifies the accounting for convertible instruments by removing certain separation models in Subtopic 470-20, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options for convertible instruments and introducing other changes. As a result of ASU No. 2020-06, more convertible debt instruments will be accounted for as a single liability measured at its amortized cost and more convertible preferred stock will be accounted for as a single equity instrument measured at its historical cost, as long as no features require bifurcation and recognition as derivatives. The amendments are effective for smaller reporting companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company adopted ASU No. 2020-06 upon its incorporation. The impact to our balance sheet, statement of operations and cash flows was not material.

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

Note 3 – Initial Public Offering

Pursuant to the IPO on July 14, 2021 the Company sold 23,000,000 Units (including 3,000,000 Units of over-allotment options that was fully exercised) at a price of $10.00 per Unit. Each Unit consists of one share of common stock and one-half of one warrant (“Public Warrant”). Each whole Public Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share of common stock at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment (see Note 8).

An aggregate of $10.00 per Unit sold in the Initial Public Offering was held in the Trust Account and invested in U.S. government securities, within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act, with a maturity of 180 days or less or in any open-ended investment company that holds itself out as a money market fund meeting the conditions of Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act, as determined by the Company.

Note 4 – Private Placement

Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, the Anchor Investors purchased an aggregate of 350,000 Private Units at a price of $10.00 per Private Unit, for an aggregate purchase price of $3,500,000, in a private placement. Each Private Unit consists of one share of common stock (“Private Share”) and one-half of one warrant (“Private Warrant”). Each whole Private Warrant is exercisable to purchase one share of common stock at an exercise price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment (see Note 8). The proceeds from the Private Units were added to the proceeds from the IPO held in the Trust Account. If the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the proceeds from the sale of the Private Units will be used to fund the redemption of the Public Shares (subject to the requirements of applicable law).

Note 5 – Related Party Transactions

Founder Shares

In September 2020, I-B Good Works II, LLC (the “Sponsor”), and the Company’s officers and directors (collectively, the “Founders”) purchased an aggregate of 4,312,500 shares (the “Founder Shares”) of the Company’s common stock for an aggregate price of $3,000. In February 2021, Sponsor forfeited 512,500 Founders Shares and the certain of our officers and directors purchased 1,950,000 Founder Shares for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $6,000, or approximately $0.003 per share. In March 2021, the Sponsor forfeited an aggregate of 1,166,666 Founder Shares and the Company’s Anchor Investors purchased an aggregate of 1,166,666 shares for an aggregate purchase price of $921. In April 2021, the Sponsor forfeited an aggregate of 240,000 Founder Shares and certain of the Company’s directors purchased an aggregate of 240,000 shares for a purchase price of approximately $189.

Of the Founder Shares, several of the Founders were holding an aggregate of 750,000 shares which they had agreed to contribute to a not-for-profit organization that is mutually acceptable to them and the Company’s board of directors within six months after the IPO or such shares were to be forfeited and cancelled. These shares were transferred to not-for-profit organizations within the six-month period and as such are no longer subject to forfeiture or cancellation.

The Founders and Anchor Investor have agreed, subject to certain limited exceptions, not to transfer, assign or sell any of the Founder Shares until the earlier of (1) one year after the completion of the Business Combination and (2) the date on which the Company consummates a liquidation, merger, capital stock exchange, reorganization, or other similar transaction after the Business Combination that results in all of the Company’s stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of common stock for cash, securities or other property. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the last sale price of the Company’s common stock equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after the Business Combination, the Founder Shares will be released from the lock-up.

Related Party Loans

Promissory Note

On February 12, 2021, the Company issued an unsecured promissory note to IBS Holding Corporation (the “Promissory Note”), an affiliate of the Sponsor, pursuant to which the Company may borrow up to an aggregate principal amount of $425,000. The Promissory Note was non-interest bearing and was paid in full upon the closing of the IPO.

Working Capital Loans

In addition, in order to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, Sponsor and its designees may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds as may be required (“Working Capital Loans”). If the Company completes a Business Combination, the Company will repay the Working Capital Loans out of the proceeds of the Trust Account released to the Company. Otherwise, the Working Capital Loans would be repaid only out of funds held outside the Trust Account. In the event that a Business Combination does not close, the Company may use a portion of proceeds held outside the Trust Account to repay the Working Capital Loans, but no proceeds held in the Trust Account would be used to repay the Working Capital Loans. Except for the foregoing, the terms of such Working Capital Loans, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such loans. The Working Capital Loans would either be repaid upon consummation of a Business Combination, without interest, or, at the lender’s discretion, up to $1,500,000 of such Working Capital Loans may be convertible into Private Units of the post Business Combination entity at a price of $10.00 per Private Unit. The Private Units are identical to the Private Units issued in the private placement.

Administrative Support Agreement

The Company agreed, commencing on the Effective Date of the registration statement through the earlier of the Company’s consummation of a Business Combination and the liquidation of the Trust Account, to pay an affiliate of one of the Company’s executive officers $10,000 per month for office space, utilities and secretarial and administrative support. The Company has incurred $120,000$90,000 pursuant to this agreement through Junefor the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

Note 7 – Commitments and Contingencies

Registration Rights

The holders of the Founder Shares, as well as the holders of the Private Units and any Private Warrants or Private Units that may be issued in payment of Working Capital Loans made to the Company (and all underlying securities), are entitled to registration rights pursuant to an agreement executed prior to the effective date of IPO. The holders of a majority of these securities are entitled to make up to two demands that the Company register such securities. The holders of the majority of the Founders Shares can elect to exercise these registration rights at any time commencing three months prior to the date on which these shares of common stock are to be released from escrow. The holders of a majority of the Representative Shares, Private Units and Private Warrants or Private Units issued in payment of Working Capital Loans (or underlying securities) can elect to exercise these registration rights at any time after the Company consummates a Business Combination. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to the consummation of a Business Combination. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.

Underwriting Agreement

The Company granted the underwriters a 45-day option from the date of Initial Public Offering to purchase up to 3,000,000 additional Units to cover over-allotments, if any, at the Initial Public Offering price less the underwriting discounts and commissions. On July 14, 2021, the underwriters’ exercised their over-allotment option in full when the Company issued 23,000,000 shares in the public offering.

Business Combination Marketing Agreement

The Company has engaged I-Bankers Securities, Inc. as an advisor in connection with a Business Combination to assist the Company 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 the Company’s securities in connection with a 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 I-Bankers Securities, Inc. a cash fee for such services upon the consummation of a Business Combination in an amount equal to 3.5% of the gross proceeds of IPO, or $8,050,000, (exclusive of any applicable finders’ fees which might become payable).

Administrative Support Agreement

Refer to Note 5 for discussion of the administrative support agreement.

Note 8 – Stockholders’ Equity

Common Stock — The Company is authorized to issue 100,000,000 shares of common stock with a par value of $0.0001 per share. At JuneSeptember 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, there were 6,400,000 (excluding 23,000,000 shares of common stock subject to possible redemption) and 6,400,000 shares of common stock issued and outstanding, respectively. Refer to Note 3 for discussion of the initial public offering that occurred on July 14, 2021.

Warrants — The Public Warrants will become exercisable on the later of (a) 30 days after the completion of a Business Combination or (b) 12 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering. No warrants will be exercisable for cash unless the Company has an effective and current registration statement covering the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants and a current prospectus relating to such shares of common stock. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a registration statement covering the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the Public Warrants is not effective within a specified period following the consummation of a Business Combination, warrant holders may, until such time as there is an effective registration statement and during any period when the Company shall have failed to maintain an effective registration statement, exercise warrants on a cashless basis pursuant to the exemption provided by Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act, provided that such exemption is available. If that exemption, or another exemption, is not available, holders will not be able to exercise their warrants on a cashless basis. The Public Warrants will expire five years after the completion of a Business Combination or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.

Once the warrants become exercisable, the Company may redeem the Public Warrants:

If the Company calls the Public Warrants for redemption, management will have the option to require all holders that wish to exercise the Public Warrants to do so on a “cashless basis,” as described in the warrant agreement.  

The Private Warrants will beare identical to the Public Warrants underlying the Units being sold in the ProposedInitial Public Offering, except that the Private Warrants and the shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of the Private Warrants will not be transferable, assignable or saleable until after the completion of a Business Combination, subject to certain limited exceptions. Additionally, the Private Warrants will be exercisable for cash or on a cashless basis, at the holder’s option, and be non-redeemable so long as they are held by the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees. If the Private Warrants are held by someone other than the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees, the Private Warrants will be redeemable by the Company and exercisable by such holders on the same basis as the Public Warrants.

The exercise price and number of shares of common stock issuable on exercise of the warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances including in the event of a stock dividend, extraordinary dividend or our recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation. However, the warrants will not be adjusted for issuances of shares of common stock at a price below their respective exercise prices. Additionally, in no event will the Company be required to net cash settle the warrants. If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period and the Company liquidates the funds held in the Trust Account, holders of warrants will not receive any of such funds with respect to their warrants, nor will they receive any distribution from the Company’s assets held outside of the Trust Account with the respect to such warrants. Accordingly, the warrants may expire worthless.

Note 9 – Subsequent Events

The Company evaluated subsequent events and transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date up to the date that the financial statements were issued. The Company identified no subsequent events, other than those described below, as of the date that the financial statements were issued.

On October 12, 2022, Good Works II Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (“Good Works”), entered into a Business Combination Agreement (the “BCA”), by and among Good Works, Direct Biologics, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Company Topco”), DB Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Company Merger Sub”), DB DRE LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“DRE LLC”), and Direct Biologics, LLC, a Wyoming limited liability company ( “Direct Biologics”). Upon consummation of the transactions contemplated by the BCA (the “Business Combination”), Company Topco would become the Nasdaq-listed parent company of both Good Works and Direct Biologics. The BCA supersedes the non-binding letter of intent between Good Works and Direct Biologics announced via press release on September 27, 2022.

Direct Biologics is using its proprietary extracellular vesicle platform technology to harness the power of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells to develop cell-free therapeutic candidates. Its product candidate, ExoFlo, is in a Phase 3 clinical trial for treating moderate-to-severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (“ARDS”) in hospitalized adults with severe-to-critical COVID-19 (the “EXTINGuish COVID-19 trial”). ExoFlo received regenerative medicine advanced therapy designation for this indication from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”), which is designed to expedite the approval of promising regenerative medical products in the U.S. that demonstrate clinical evidence indicating the ability to address an unmet medical need for a serious life-threatening disease or condition.

On October 11, 2022, the Company held a vote to amend its amended and restated certificate of incorporation to extend the date by which the Company must consummate a Business Combination from October 14, 2022 to April 14, 2023 (the “Extension Meeting”). At the Extension Meeting, the Company stockholders had the opportunity to redeem their shares of the Company for a proportional amount of the money held in the Company’s trust account. The Company’s stockholders elected redemptions of 20,525,530 shares at a redemption value of $10.04 each for an aggregate redemption value of $206,139,296, which was paid on October 12, 2022. These redemptions will decrease the amount of Investment Held in Trust Account as well as the Common Stock Subject to Possible Redemption.

If the proposed transaction is consummated, cash from this proposed transaction, net of transaction fees, is intended to be used to fund clinical trials and provide working capital for commercializing Direct Biologics’ lead product. 

The Business Combination

The BCA provides, among other things, that on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, (i) Company Merger Sub will merge with and into Good Works, with Good Works surviving the merger and becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of Company Topco (the “Topco Merger”), (ii) DRE LLC will merge with and into Direct Biologics, with Direct Biologics surviving the merger (the “Rollover Merger”, and together with the Topco Merger, the “Mergers”). Following the closing of the Mergers, the combined company will be organized in an “Up-C” structure, and Company Topco’s only direct assets will consist of equity in Good Works and Direct Biologics. The date on which the closing of the Mergers (the “Closing”) actually occurs is hereinafter referred to as the “Closing Date.”

Immediately following the Mergers, certain members of Direct Biologics will contribute a portion of their equity in Direct Biologics to Company Topco in exchange for equity in Company Topco (the “Topco Contribution”), with Direct Biologics continuing as a partially-owned subsidiary of Company Topco. Following the Topco Contribution, Good Works will contribute to Direct Biologics all funds remaining in its trust account following its stockholder vote to approve the Business Combination, less any amounts used to pay transaction expenses associated with the Business Combination.

Business Combination Consideration

The aggregate consideration available to be received by the members of Direct Biologics is based on an enterprise value of $1,025,000,000 and consists of (i) shares of Company Topco common stock and Direct Biologics Up-C units based on a pre-money enterprise value of $625 million with equity consideration valued at $10.00 per share, (ii) shares of Company Topco common stock and Direct Biologics Up-C units currently valued at $50 million that are subject to forfeiture if Direct Biologics does not achieve a primary efficacy endpoint of 60-day all-cause mortality in its Phase 3 EXTINGuish trial by December 31, 2023, and (iii) shares of Company Topco common stock and Direct Biologics Up-C units currently valued at $350 million that are subject to forfeiture if Direct Biologics does not obtain either Biologics License Application approval or Emergency Use Authorization from the FDA for its ExoFlo product (or a derivative product for any applicable indication) by December 31, 2024.

The BCA and the Business Combination have been approved by the boards of directors of each of Good Works, and Company Topco and the board of managers of Direct Biologics. The Business Combination is expected to close in the first half of 2023, subject to customary closing conditions, including the satisfaction of the minimum Available Cash conditions, the receipt of certain governmental approvals and the required approval by Good Works’ stockholders and Direct Biologics’ unit holders.

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and related notes thereto included elsewhere in this report.

Overview

We are a blank check company incorporated on July 27, 2020 as a Delaware corporation and formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses (a “Business Combination”). We consummated our Public Offering (as defined below) on July 14, 2021, on September 27, 2022 we signed a letter of intent (“LOI”) with Direct Biologics and are currentlyon October 12, 2022 we signed a Business Combination Agreement (the “BCA”), by and among Good Works, Direct Biologics, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Company Topco”), DB Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Company Merger Sub”), DB DRE LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“DRE LLC”), and Direct Biologics, LLC, a Wyoming limited liability company ( “Direct Biologics”), which is described in the process of locating suitable targets for our business combination.further detail below. We intend to use the cash proceeds from our Public Offering and the Private Placement described below as well as additional issuances, if any, of our capital stock, debt or a combination of cash, stock and debt to complete the Business Combination.

We expect to incur significant costs in the pursuit of our initial Business Combination. We cannot assure you that our plans to complete our initial Business Combination will be successful.

We completed the sale of 23,000,000 units (the “Units” and, with respect to the shares of common stock included in the Units being offered, the “Public Shares”) at $10.00 per Unit on July 14, 2021. Simultaneous with the closing of the Public Offering, we completed the sale of 350,000 Private Units (the “Private Units”) at a price of $10.00 per Private Unit in a private placement to certain funds and accounts managed by Glazer Capital LLC, Magnetar Financial LLC, Mint Tower Capital Management B.V., Periscope Capital, Inc., and Polar Asset Management Partners Inc. (collectively, the “Anchor Investors”).

As of JuneSeptember 30, 2022, a total of $230,214,069$231,258,637 of the net proceeds from the IPO (including the partial exercise of the over-allotment option) and the Private Placements were in a trust account established for the benefit of the Company’s public shareholders. The trust fund account is generally invested in interest-bearing U.S. government securities and the income earned on those investments is also for the benefit of our public shareholders.

Our management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of IPO and the Private Placement, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be applied generally towards consummating a business combination.

Results of Operations and Known Trends or Future Events

As of JuneSeptember 30, 2022, we have not commenced any operations. All activity for the period from July 27, 2020 (inception) through JuneSeptember 30, 2022, relates to our formation and initial public offering (“Public Offering” of “IPO”) that occurred on July 14, 2021, and, since the completion of the IPO, searching for a target to consummate a Business Combination. We will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of a Business Combination, at the earliest. We will generate non-operating income in the form of interest income from the proceeds derived from the Public Offering and placed in the Trust Account (defined below). There has been no significant change in our financial or trading position and no material adverse change has occurred since the date of our audited financial statements, December 31, 2021.

For the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2022, we had a net lossincome of $138,949$246,439 which consisted of $254,641$578,495 in operating expenses incurred and a $219,634 provision for income tax offset by $115,692$1,044,568 in interest income from investments held in the Trust Account. For the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2022, we had a net loss of $327,609$81,170 which consisted of $541,678$1,120,173 in operating expenses incurred and a $219,634 provision for income tax offset by $214,069$1,258,637 in interest income from investments held in the Trust Account.

For the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2021, we had a net loss of $1,218$197,601 which consisted of $212,360 in operating expenses incurred.incurred offset by $14,759 in interest income from the investments held in the Trust Account. For the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2021, we had a net loss of $2,153$199,754 which consisted of $214,513 in operating expenses incurred.incurred offset by $14,759 in interest income from investments in the Trust Account.

The loss in the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2022 was greater than the losses in the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2021 because the Company had not yetonly just completed its IPO in July 2021.

Proposed Business Combination

On October 12, 2022, Good Works II Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (“Good Works”), entered into a Business Combination Agreement (the “BCA”), by and among Good Works, Direct Biologics, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Company Topco”), DB Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Company Merger Sub”), DB DRE LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“DRE LLC”), and Direct Biologics, LLC, a Wyoming limited liability company ( “Direct Biologics”). Upon consummation of the transactions contemplated by the BCA (the “Business Combination”), Company Topco would become the Nasdaq-listed parent company of both Good Works and Direct Biologics. The BCA supersedes the non-binding letter of intent between Good Works and Direct Biologics announced via press release on September 27, 2022.

Direct Biologics is using its proprietary extracellular vesicle platform technology to harness the power of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells to develop cell-free therapeutic candidates. Its product candidate, ExoFlo, is in a Phase 3 clinical trial for treating moderate-to-severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (“ARDS”) in hospitalized adults with severe-to-critical COVID-19 (the “EXTINGuish COVID-19 trial”). ExoFlo received regenerative medicine advanced therapy designation for this indication from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”), which is designed to expedite the approval of promising regenerative medical products in the U.S. that demonstrate clinical evidence indicating the ability to address an unmet medical need for a serious life-threatening disease or condition.

On October 11, 2022, the Company held a vote to amend its amended and restated certificate of incorporation to extend the date by which the Company must consummate a Business Combination from October 14, 2022 to April 14, 2023 (the “Extension Meeting”). At the Extension Meeting, the Company stockholders had the opportunity to redeem their shares of the Company for a proportional amount of the money held in the Company’s trust account. The Company’s stockholders elected redemptions of 20,525,530 shares at a redemption value of $10.04 each for an aggregate redemption value of $206,139,296.

If the proposed transaction is consummated, cash from this proposed transaction, net of transaction fees, is intended to be used to fund clinical trials and provide working capital for commercializing Direct Biologics’ lead product. 

The Business Combination

The BCA provides, among other things, that on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, (i) Company Merger Sub will merge with and into Good Works, with Good Works surviving the merger and becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of Company Topco (the “Topco Merger”), (ii) DRE LLC will merge with and into Direct Biologics, with Direct Biologics surviving the merger (the “Rollover Merger”, and together with the Topco Merger, the “Mergers”). Following the closing of the Mergers, the combined company will be organized in an “Up-C” structure, and Company Topco’s only direct assets will consist of equity in Good Works and Direct Biologics. The date on which the closing of the Mergers (the “Closing”) actually occurs is hereinafter referred to as the “Closing Date.”

Immediately following the Mergers, certain members of June 30, 2021.Direct Biologics will contribute a portion of their equity in Direct Biologics to Company Topco in exchange for equity in Company Topco (the “Topco Contribution”), with Direct Biologics continuing as a partially-owned subsidiary of Company Topco. Following the Topco Contribution, Good Works will contribute to Direct Biologics all funds remaining in its trust account following its stockholder vote to approve the Business Combination, less any amounts used to pay transaction expenses associated with the Business Combination.

Business Combination Consideration

The aggregate consideration available to be received by the members of Direct Biologics is based on an enterprise value of $1,025,000,000 and consists of (i) shares of Company Topco common stock and Direct Biologics Up-C units based on a pre-money enterprise value of $625 million with equity consideration valued at $10.00 per share, (ii) shares of Company Topco common stock and Direct Biologics Up-C units currently valued at $50 million that are subject to forfeiture if Direct Biologics does not achieve a primary efficacy endpoint of 60-day all-cause mortality in its Phase 3 EXTINGuish trial by December 31, 2023, and (iii) shares of Company Topco common stock and Direct Biologics Up-C units currently valued at $350 million that are subject to forfeiture if Direct Biologics does not obtain either Biologics License Application approval or Emergency Use Authorization from the FDA for its ExoFlo product (or a derivative product for any applicable indication) by December 31, 2024.

The BCA and the Business Combination have been approved by the boards of directors of each of Good Works, and Company Topco and the board of managers of Direct Biologics. The Business Combination is expected to close in the first half of 2023, subject to customary closing conditions, including the satisfaction of the minimum Available Cash conditions, the receipt of certain governmental approvals and the required approval by Good Works’ stockholders and Direct Biologics’ unit holders.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of JuneSeptember 30, 2022, we had cash outside our trust account of $1,030,654$699,231, available for working capital needs. All remaining cash was held in the trust account and is generally unavailable for our use, prior to an initial business combination.

Pursuant to the IPO on July 14, 2021 the Company sold 23,000,000 Units (including 3,000,000 Units of over-allotment options that was fully exercised) at a price of $10.00 per Unit. Each Unit consists of one share of common stock and one-half of one warrant (“Public Warrant”). Each whole Public Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share of common stock at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment. An aggregate of $10.00 per Unit sold in the Initial Public Offering was held in the Trust Account and invested in U.S. government securities, within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act, with a maturity of 180 days or less or in any open-ended investment company that holds itself out as a money market fund meeting the conditions of Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act, as determined by the Company. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2022, $230,214,069$231,258,637 of the IPO proceeds were held in the Trust Account. In addition, $1,030,654

On October 11, 2022, we held a vote to amend our amended and restated certificate of cash is not held inincorporation to extend the Trust Account and is availabledate by which we must consummate a Business Combination from October 14, 2022 to April 14, 2023 (the “Extension Meeting”). At the Extension Meeting, our stockholders elected redemptions of 20,525,530 shares at a value of $10.04 per share for working capital purposes.an aggregate redemption value of $206,139,296. 

We intend to use substantially all of the funds held in the trust account, including any amounts representing interest earned on the trust account (excluding the business combination marketing fees payable to I-Bankers) to complete our initial Business Combination. We may withdraw interest to pay our taxes and liquidation expenses if we are unsuccessful in completing a Business Combination. We estimate our annual franchise tax obligations to be $200,000, which is the maximum amount of annual franchise taxes payable by us as a Delaware corporation per annum, which we may pay from funds from the Public Offering held outside of the trust account or from interest earned on the funds held in the trust account and released to us for this purpose. Our 2021 franchise tax was calculated using a partial year proration and amounted to $97,219. Our annual income tax obligations will depend on the amount of interest and other income earned on the amounts held in the trust account reduced by our operating expense and franchise taxes. We expect the interest earned on the amount in the trust account will be sufficient to pay our income taxes. To the extent that our equity or debt is used, in whole or in part, as consideration to complete our initial Business Combination, the remaining proceeds held in the trust account will be used as working capital to finance the operations of the target business or businesses, make other acquisitions and pursue our growth strategies.

We do not believe we will need to raise additional funds in order to meet the expenditures required for operating our business prior to our initial business combination. However, if our estimates of the costs of identifying a target business, undertaking in-depth due diligence and negotiating an initial business combination are less than the actual amount necessary to do so, we may have insufficient funds available to operate our business prior to our initial business combination. In order to fund working capital deficiencies or finance transaction costs in connection with an intended initial business combination, our initial stockholders or one of its affiliates or certain of our officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan us funds as may be required. If we complete our initial business combination, we would repay such loaned amounts (subject to the conversion rights described below). In the event that our initial business combination does not close, we may use a portion of the working capital held outside the trust account to repay such loaned amounts but no proceeds from our trust account would be used for such repayment. Up to $1,500,000 of such loans may at the option of the lender determined at the time of the loan be convertible into private placement units at a price of $10.00 per unit of the post business combination entity. The units would be identical to the private placement units, including as to exercise price, exercisability and exercise period of the underlying warrants. The terms of such loans, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such loans. Prior to the completion of our initial business combination, we do not expect to seek loans from parties other than our initial stockholders or their affiliates as we do not believe third parties will be willing to loan such funds and provide a waiver against any and all rights to seek access to funds in our trust account.

We expect our

Our primary liquidity requirements priorincurred to date in advance of our initial business combination to include approximately $600,000$223,000 for legal, accounting, due diligence, travel and other expenses associated with structuring, negotiating and documenting successful business combinations; $250,000$185,000 for legal and accounting fees related to regulatory reporting requirements; $72,500$247,000 for Franchise Taxes to the State of Delaware; $144,000 for Nasdaq continued listing fees; and approximately $177,500$495,000 for general working capital that will be used for miscellaneous expenses and reserves. We arehave also payingpaid an affiliate of one of our officers $10,000 per month, for a total to date of $150,000, for office space, secretarial and administrative services provided to members of our management team.

These amounts are estimates and may differ materially from our actual expenses. In addition, we could use a portion of the funds not being placed in trust to pay commitment fees for financing, fees to consultants to assist us with our search for a target business or as a down payment or to fund a “no-shop” provision (a provision designed to keep target businesses from “shopping” around for transactions with other companies or investors on terms more favorable to such target businesses) with respect to a particular proposed business combination, although we do not have any current intention to do so. If we entered into an agreement where we paid for the right to receive exclusivity from a target business, the amount that would be used as a down payment or to fund a “no-shop” provision would be determined based on the terms of the specific business combination and the amount of our available funds at the time. Our forfeiture of such funds (whether as a result of our breach or otherwise) could result in our not having sufficient funds to continue searching for, or conducting due diligence with respect to, prospective target businesses.

Moreover, we mayWe will need to obtain additional financing either to complete our Business Combination or because as a result of the Extension Meeting we have become obligated to redeem a significant number of our20,525,530 public shares upon consummation of our Business Combination,shares. in which case we may issue additional securities or incur debt in connection with such Business Combination. In addition, we intend to target businesses with enterprise values that are greater than we could acquire with the net proceeds of our initial public offering and the sale of the private placement units, and, as a result, if the cash portion of the purchase price exceeds the amount available from the trust account, net of amounts needed to satisfy any redemptions by public stockholders, we may be required to seek additional financing to complete such proposed initial business combination. We may also obtain financing prior to the closing of our initial business combination to fund our working capital needs and transaction costs in connection with our search for and completion of our initial business combination. There is no limitation on our ability to raise funds through the issuance of equity or equity-linked securities or through loans, advances or other indebtedness in connection with our initial business combination, including pursuant to forward purchase agreements or backstop agreements we may enter into following consummation of our initial public offering. Subject to compliance with applicable securities laws, we would only complete such financing simultaneously with the completion of our Business Combination. If we are unable to complete our Business Combination because we do not have sufficient funds available to us, we will be forced to cease operations and liquidate the Trust Account. In addition, following our Business Combination, if cash on hand is insufficient, we may need to obtain additional financing in order to meet our obligations.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We did not have any off-balance sheet arrangement as of JuneSeptember 30, 2022.

Contractual Obligations

As of JuneSeptember 30, 2022, we did not have any long-term debt, capital or operating lease obligations.

We entered into an administrative support agreement pursuant to which we will pay an affiliate of one of our directors for office space and secretarial and administrative services provided to members of our management team, in an amount not to exceed $10,000 per month.

We have engaged I-Bankers as an advisor in connection with our acquiring, engaging in a share exchange, share reconstruction and amalgamation with, purchasing all or substantially all of the assets of, entering into contractual arrangements with, or engaging in any other similar Business Combination with one or more businesses or entities. We will pay I-Bankers for such services a fee equal to 3.5% of the gross proceeds of the Public Offering.Offering, or $8,050,000.

Critical Accounting Policies

Management’s discussion and analysis of our results of operations and liquidity and capital resources are based on our audited financial information. We describe our significant accounting policies in Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, of the Notes to Financial Statements included in this report, with those considered critical outlined below. Our audited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Certain of our accounting policies require that management apply significant judgments in defining the appropriate assumptions integral to financial estimates. On an ongoing basis, management reviews the accounting policies, assumptions, estimates and judgments to ensure that our financial statements are presented fairly and in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Judgments are based on historical experience, terms of existing contracts, industry trends and information available from outside sources, as appropriate. However, by their nature, judgments are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty, and, therefore, actual results could differ from our estimates.

Common Stock Subject to Possible Redemption

We account for common stock subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“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 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) are classified as temporary equity. At all other times, common stock is classified as stockholders’ equity. Our common stock features certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of our control and subject to the occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, 23,000,000 shares of common stock subject to possible redemption are presented as temporary equity, outside of the stockholders’ equity section of our balance sheet at JuneSeptember 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

Net Income (loss) Per Common Stock

We comply with accounting and disclosure requirements of FASB ASC Topic 260, “Earnings Per Share”. Net lossincome (loss) per share is computed by dividing net lossincome (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. We apply the two-class method in calculating income per share of common stock. Accretion associated with the redeemable shares of common stock is excluded from income (loss) per common share as the redemption value approximates fair value.

The calculation of diluted income (loss) per share of common stock does not consider the effect of the warrants issued in connection with the (i) Initial Public Offering, and (ii) the private placement since the exercise of the warrants is contingent upon the occurrence of future events. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2022 and JuneSeptember 30, 2021, we did not have any dilutive securities or other contracts that could, potentially, be exercised or converted into common stock and then share in our earnings. As a result, diluted net income (loss) per common share is the same as basic net income (loss) per common share for the periods presented.

Recent Accounting Standards

Our management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards if currently adopted would have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements.

JOBS Act

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

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

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

As of JuneSeptember 30, 2022, we were not subject to any material market or interest rate risk. Following the consummation of our Public Offering, the net proceeds of the Public Offering and the Private Placement, including amounts in the Trust Account, were invested in U.S. government treasury obligations 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 which invest only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations. Due to the short-term nature of these investments, we believe there was no associated material exposure to interest rate risk.

We have not engaged in any hedging activities since our inception. We do not expect to engage in any hedging activities with respect to the market risk to which we are exposed.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Disclosure controls are procedures that are designed with the objective of ensuring that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act, such as this Report, is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time period specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls are also designed with the objective of ensuring that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our management evaluated, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial and accounting officer (our “Certifying Officers”), the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of JuneSeptember 30, 2022, pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) under the Exchange Act. Based upon that evaluation, our Certifying Officers concluded that, as of JuneSeptember 30, 2022, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

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.

Management’s Report on Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting

This Report does not include a report of management’s assessment regarding internal control over financial reporting or an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm due to a transition period established by rules of the SEC for newly public companies.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

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

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

None.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

Factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those in this report include the risk factors described in our Form 10-K/A filed with the SEC on March 3, 2022. As of the date of this report, there have been no material changes to the risk factors disclosed in our Form 10-K/A filed with the SEC.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

On July 14, 2021, we consummated our initial public offering (“IPO”) of 20,000,000 Units. The Units were sold at a price of $10.00 per unit, generating gross proceeds of $200,000,000. In connection with the IPO, the underwriters were granted a 45-day option from the date of the IPO prospectus (the “Over-Allotment Option”) to purchase up to 3,000,000 additional units to cover over-allotments (the “Over-Allotment Units”), if any. On July 14, 2021, the underwriters purchased an additional 3,000,000 Over-Allotment Units pursuant to the full exercise of the Over-Allotment Option. The Over-Allotment Units were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per Over-Allotment Unit, generating aggregate additional gross proceeds of $30,000,000 to the Company.

Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, pursuant to certain subscription agreements, we completed a private sale of an aggregate of 350,000 units (the “Private Placement Units”) to the anchor investors at a purchase price of $10.00 per Private Placement Unit, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $3,500,000. The Private Placement Units are identical to the Units sold in the IPO except that the private placement warrants included in the Private Placement Units: (i) will not be redeemable by the Company and (ii) may be exercised for cash or on a cashless basis, as described in the Registration Statement, in each case so long as they are held by the initial purchasers or any of their permitted transferees. If the private placement warrants are held by holders other than the initial purchasers or any of their permitted transferees, the private placement warrants will be redeemable by the Company and exercisable by the holders on the same basis as the warrants included in the Units sold in the IPO. No underwriting discounts or commissions were paid with respect to such sale. The issuance of the Private Placement Units was made pursuant to the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

I-Bankers was representative of the several underwriters. The securities sold in the IPO were registered under the Securities Act on a registration statement on Form S-1 (No. 333-254462). The SEC declared the registration statement effective on July 14, 2021.

We paid a total of $600,000 in underwriting discounts and commissions and $1,650,000 for other costs and expenses related to the IPO. I-Bankers, representative of the several underwriters in the IPO, received a portion of the underwriting discounts and commissions related to the IPO. We also repaid the promissory note to an affiliate of our sponsor from the proceeds of the IPO. After deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions and incurred offering costs, the total net proceeds from our IPO (including the Units sold in the Over-Allotment Option) and the sale of the private placement units was $231,250,000, of which $230,000,000 (or $10.00 per unit sold in the IPO) was placed in the trust account. Other than as described above, no payments were made by us to directors, officers or persons owning ten percent or more of our common stock or to their associates, or to our affiliates.None.
