ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS OPERATIONS | NOTE 1 — ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS OPERATIONS Organization and General B. Riley Principal 250 Merger Corp. (the “Company”), a blank check corporation, was incorporated as a Delaware corporation on June 19, 2020. The Company is 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”). The Company was 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 (an “Initial Business Combination”). As of December 31, 2021, the Company had not commenced any operations. All activity of the Company includes the activity of the Company from inception and activity related to the initial public offering (the “Public Offering”) described below and evaluating prospective acquisition targets. The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after 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 Public Offering described below. The Company has selected December 31st as its fiscal year end. Public Offering The Company completed the sale of 15,000,000 units (the “Public Units”) at an offering price of $10.00 per Public Unit in the Public Offering on May 11, 2021. B. Riley Principal 250 Sponsor Co. LLC (the “Sponsor”), a Delaware limited liability company and a wholly-owned indirect subsidiary of B. Riley Financial, Inc. (“B. Riley Financial”), purchased an aggregate of 555,000 units at a price of $10.00 per unit (the “Private Placement Units”) in a private placement that closed on May 11, 2021 simultaneously with the Public Offering. The sale of the 15,000,000 Public Units in the Public Offering generated gross proceeds of $150,000,000, less underwriting commissions of $3,000,000 (2% of the gross proceeds of the Public Offering) and other offering costs of $571,103. The sale of the Private Placement Units generated $5,550,000 of gross proceeds. The Company granted the underwriters a 45-day option from the date of the prospectus, May 7, 2021, to purchase additional Public Units. On June 14, 2021, the underwriters exercised the over-allotment in full and purchased an additional 2,250,000 Public Units (the “Over-Allotment Public Units”), generating gross proceeds of $22,500,000, less underwriting commissions of $450,000 (2% of the gross proceeds of the Over-Allotment Public Units. On June 14, 2021, simultaneously with consummation of the sale of the Over-Allotment Public Units, the Company consummated a private sale of an additional 45,000 Private Placement Units (the “Over-Allotment Private Placement Units”) to the Sponsor, generating gross proceeds of $450,000. Each Unit consists of one share of the Company’s Class A common stock, $0.0001 par value (“Class A common stock”, and with respect to the shares underlying the Public Units, the “public shares” and with respect to the shares underlying the Private Placement Units, the “Private Placement Shares”), and one-third of one redeemable warrant, with each whole warrant exercisable for one share of Class A common stock (the “Warrants” and, with respect to the Warrants underlying the Public Units, the “Public Warrants” and with respect to the Warrants underlying the Private Placement Units, the “Private Placement Warrants”). One Warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one whole share of Class A common stock at an initial exercise price of $11.50 per share. Sponsor and Note Payable - Related Party The Company had a note payable to Sponsor which allowed the Company to borrow up to $300,000 without interest to be used for a portion of the expenses of the Public Offering. The note payable was payable on the earlier of: (i) December 31, 2021 or (ii) the date on which the Company consummated an initial public offering of its securities. Borrowings on the note payable due to related party was $100,000 on the date of the Public Offering. On May 17, 2021, the note payable – related party in the amount of $100,000 was repaid using proceeds from the Public Offering and the sale of the Private Placement Units. The Trust Account Upon completion of the Public Offering, and the underwriters exercise of the over-allotment in full, $172,250,000 of proceeds were placed in the Company’s trust account at Bank of America, N.A., with Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company acting as trustee (the “Trust Account”) and are invested in permitted United States “government securities” within the meaning of Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, which we refer to as 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 that invest only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations. Unless and until the Company completes the Initial Business Combination, it may pay its expenses only from the net proceeds of the Public Offering and the sale of the Private Placement Units held outside the Trust Account, which was $1,050,144 on December 31, 2021. Except with respect to interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account that may be released to the Company to pay its taxes, the proceeds from the Public Offering may not be released from the Trust Account until the earliest of: (i) the completion of the Initial Business Combination; (ii) 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 to modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to redeem 100% of its public shares if it does not complete the Initial Business Combination by May 11, 2023; or (iii) the redemption of all of the Company’s public shares if the Company is unable to complete the Initial Business Combination by May 11, 2023 (at which such time up to $100,000 of interest shall be available to the Company to pay dissolution expenses), subject to applicable law. The proceeds deposited in the Trust Account could become subject to the claims of the Company’s creditors, if any, which could have priority over the claims of the holders of the Company’s public shares (the “public stockholders Initial Business Combination The Company’s management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the Public Offering, although substantially all of the net proceeds of the Public Offering and the Private Placement are intended to be generally applied toward consummating an Initial Business Combination. The Initial Business Combination must occur with one or more businesses or assets with a fair market value equal to at least 80% of the net assets held in the Trust Account (excluding the amount of any deferred underwriting discount). There is no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully effect an Initial Business Combination. The Company, after signing a definitive agreement for an Initial Business Combination, will provide its public stockholders’ with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their shares upon the completion of the Initial Business Combination, either (i) in connection with a stockholder meeting called to approve the business combination or (ii) by means of a tender offer. However, in no event will the Company redeem its public shares in an amount that would cause its net tangible assets to be less than $5,000,001. In such case, the Company would not proceed with the redemption of its public shares and the related Initial Business Combination, and instead may search for an alternate Initial Business Combination. If the Company holds a stockholder vote or there is a tender offer for shares in connection with an Initial Business Combination, a public stockholder will have the right to redeem its public shares for an amount in cash equal to its pro rata share of the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account as of two business days prior to the consummation of the Initial Business Combination, including interest but less taxes payable. As a result, such shares of Class A common stock have been recorded at redemption amount and classified as temporary equity upon the completion of the Public Offering, in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” Pursuant to the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation, if the Company is unable to complete the Initial Business Combination by May 11, 2023, the Company will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but no more than ten business days thereafter redeem the public shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay franchise and income taxes (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), 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. The Sponsor and the Company’s officers and directors have entered into a letter agreement with the Company, pursuant to which they have agreed to waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to any Founder Shares and Private Placement Shares (as defined below) held by them if the Company fails to complete the Initial Business Combination by May 11, 2023. However, if the Sponsor or any of the Company’s directors or officers acquires public shares in or after the Public Offering, they will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to such public shares if the Company fails to complete the Initial Business Combination within the prescribed time period. In the event of a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company after an Initial Business Combination, the Company’s remaining stockholders are entitled to share ratably in all assets remaining available for distribution to them after payment of liabilities and after provision is made for each class of stock, if any, having preference over the common stock. The Company’s stockholders have no preemptive or other subscription rights. There are no sinking fund provisions applicable to the common stock, except that the Company will provide its stockholders with the opportunity to redeem their public shares for cash equal to their pro rata share of the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, under the circumstances, and, subject to the limitations, described herein. Liquidity As of December 31, 2021, the Company had $1,050,144 of cash held outside of the Trust Account and working capital of $1,277,182. The Company’s liquidity needs will be satisfied by the existing cash balances of the Company that are held outside of the Trust Account. Based on the foregoing, management believes that the Company will have sufficient working capital and borrowing capacity to meet its needs through the earlier of the consummation of a Business Combination or one year from this filing. Over this time period, the Company will be using the funds held outside of the Trust Account for paying existing accounts payable and accrued liabilities, identifying and evaluating prospective Initial Business Combination candidates, performing due diligence on prospective target businesses, paying for travel expenditures, selecting the target business to merge with or acquire, and structuring, negotiating and consummating the Initial Business Combination. 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 statement. The financial statement does not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. |

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | NOTE 2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of Presentation The financial statements of the Company are presented in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). 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 shareholder 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 statement(s) with another public company, which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used. Use of Estimates The preparation of the financial statement in conformity with 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 financial statement. Estimates are used when accounting for certain items such as valuation of investments held in Trust Account, derivative and warrant liabilities, and accounting for income tax valuation allowances. 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 statement, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers all short-term investments with an original maturity date of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. The Company did not have any cash equivalents as of December 31, 2021 and 2020. Investments Held in Trust Account As of December 31, 2021, the Company had $172,507,535 in investments held in the Trust Account. The assets held in the Trust Account were held in a mutual fund that invests in U.S. Treasury securities. Class A Common Stock Subject to Possible Redemption All of the 17,250,000 shares of Class A common stock sold as part of the Public Units in the Public Offering 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 Initial Business Combination and in connection with certain amendments to the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation. In accordance with SEC and its staff’s guidance on redeemable equity instruments, which has been codified in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 480-10-S99, redemption provisions not solely within the control of the Company require shares of common stock subject to redemption to be classified outside of permanent equity. Therefore, all of the shares of Class A common stock sold in the Public Offering has been classified outside of permanent equity. The Company recognizes changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and adjusts the carrying value of redeemable common stock to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Increases or decreases in the carrying amount of redeemable common stock are affected by charges against additional paid in capital and accumulated deficit. As of December 31, 2021, the shares of Class A common stock reflected in the balance sheet are reconciled in the following table: Gross proceeds $ 172,500,000 Less: Proceeds allocated to Public Warrants (5,347,500 ) Proceeds allocated to derivative liability (84,985 ) Issuance costs allocated to Class A ordinary shares (3,896,314 ) Plus: Remeasurement adjustment of carrying value to redemption value 9,298,579 Reclassification of derivative liability upon exercise of overallotment option 30,220 Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption $ 172,500,000 Note Payable - Related Party The Company had a note payable to Sponsor which allowed the Company to borrow up to $300,000 without interest to be used for a portion of the expenses associated with the Public Offering. The notes payable was payable on the earlier of: (i) December 31, 2021 or (ii) the date on which the Company consummated an initial public offering of its securities. Borrowings on the note payable due to related party was $100,000 on the date of the Public Offering. On May 17, 2021, the note payable – related party in the amount of $100,000 was repaid using proceeds from the Public Offering and the Private Placement. Warrant Liability The Company accounts for warrants for shares of the Company’s common stock that are not indexed to its own stock as liabilities at fair value on the balance sheet in accordance with subtopic ASC 815-40-15, “Derivatives and Hedging - Contract’s in Entity’s Own Equity”. The warrants will be re-evaluated for the proper accounting treatment at each reporting period and are subject to remeasurement at each balance sheet date and any change in fair value is recognized as a component of other income (expense), net on the statement of operations. The Company will continue to adjust the liability for changes in fair value until the earlier of the exercise or expiration of the common stock warrants. At that time, the portion of the liability related to the common stock warrants will be reclassified to additional paid-in capital. At December 31, 2021, there were 5,950,000 Warrants issued in connection with the Public Offering (the 5,750,000 public Warrants and the 200,000 Private Placement Warrants). Offering Costs Associated with the Public Offering The Company complies with the requirements of ASC 340-10-S99-1 and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 5A - Expenses of Offering. Offering costs consist principally of professional and registration fees incurred through the balance sheet date that are related to the Public Offering. Offering costs directly attributable to the issuance of an equity contract to be classified in equity are recorded as a reduction in equity. Offering costs for equity contracts that are classified as assets and liabilities are expensed immediately. The Company incurred offering costs amounting to $4,021,103 as a result of the Public Offering (consisting of underwriting commissions of $3,450,000 (2% of the gross proceeds of the Public Offering) and other offering costs of $571,103). The Company recorded $3,896,314 of offering costs as a reduction of temporary equity in connection with the shares of Class A common stock included in the Units. The Company immediately expensed $124,789 of offering costs in connection with the Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants that were classified as liabilities. Income Taxes Prior to the change in ownership on May 11, 2021 as a result of the Public Offering, the Company was included in the consolidated tax return of B. Riley Financial (the “Parent”). During this period, the Company calculated the provision for income taxes by using a “separate return” method. Under this method the Company is assumed to file a separate return with the tax authority, thereby reporting its taxable income or loss and paying the applicable tax to, or receiving the appropriate refund from, the Parent. The current provision was the amount of tax payable or refundable on the basis of a hypothetical, current year, separate return. Following changes in ownership on May 11, 2021, the Company deconsolidated from the Parent for tax purposes. Beginning May 11, 2021, the Company files separate corporate federal and state and local income tax returns. Any difference between the tax provision (or benefit) allocated to the Company under the separate return method and payments to be made by (or received from) the Parent for tax expense are treated as either dividends or capital contribution. Accordingly, the amount by which the Company’s tax liability under the separate return method exceeds the amount of tax liability ultimately settled as a result of using incremental expenses of the Parent is periodically settled as a capital contribution from the Parent to the Company. The Company complies with the accounting and reporting requirements of ASC Topic 740 “Income Taxes,” which requires an asset and liability approach to financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed for differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities that will result in future taxable or deductible amounts, based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. ASC Topic 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. As of December 31, 2021, there were no unrecognized tax benefits and no amounts accrued for interest and penalties. 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 may be subject to potential examination by federal, state and city taxing authorities in the areas of income taxes. These potential examinations may include questioning the timing and amount of deductions, the nexus of income among various tax jurisdictions and compliance with federal, state and city 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. Unrecognized Tax Benefits The Company recognizes tax positions in its financial statements only when it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained on examination by the relevant taxing authority based on the technical merits of the position. A position that meets this standard is measured at the largest amount of benefit that will more likely than not be realized on settlement. A liability is established for differences between positions taken in a tax return and amounts recognized in the financial statements. There were no unrecognized tax benefits as of December 31, 2021. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. No amounts were accrued for interest expense and penalties related to income tax matters as of December 31, 2021. The Company is subject to income tax examinations by major taxing authorities since inception. Net Income Per Common Share The Company has two classes of shares, which are referred to as Class A common stock and Class B common stock (the “Founder Shares”). Earnings and losses are shared pro rata between the two classes of shares. Private and public Warrants to purchase 5,950,000 shares of common stock at $11.50 per share were issued in connection with the IPO and exercise of overallotment. At December 31 2021, no Warrants have been exercised. The 5,950,000 potential common shares for outstanding Warrants to purchase the Company’s stock were excluded from diluted earnings per share for the year ended December 31, 2021, because the Warrants are contingently exercisable, and the contingencies have not yet been met. Basic and diluted earnings per share for the period from June 19, 2020, (Inception) through December 31, 2020 gives effect retroactively to the redeemable Class B shares that were outstanding as a result of the Initial Public Offering. The basic weighted average Class B common shares outstanding of 4,058,219 in 2021 excludes 254,281 common shares that are included in the diluted weighted average Class B common shares which is the impact of the 562,500 Class B common shares that were subject to forfeiture and contingently issuable upon completion of the Initial Public Offering. In 2020, the dilutive impact of the 562,500 Class B common shares that were subject to forfeiture and contingently issuable upon completion of the Initial Public Offering were antidilutive. The table below presents a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator used to compute basic and diluted net income per share for each class of common stock: For the Year For the December 31, December 31, 2021 2020 Basic and diluted weighted average shares outstanding, class A common shares 11,229,781 n/a Basic and diluted Net income per share, Class A common shares $ 00.1 n/a Basic weighted average shares outstanding, Class B common shares 4,058,219 3,750,000 Basic Net income per share, Class B common shares $ 0.01 $ 0.00 Diluted weighted average shares outstanding, Class B common shares 4,312,500 3,750,000 Diluted Net income per share, Class B common shares $ 0.01 $ 0.00 n/a - not applicable as there were no Class A Common Stock outstanding in 2020. For the period from June 19, 2020, (Inception) through December 31, 2020, there were no shares of redeemable common stock outstanding or other common stock equivalents outstanding. Basic and diluted earnings per share for the period from June 19, 2020, (Inception) through December 31, 2020 was $0.00 based on 4,312,500 shares outstanding which gives effect retroactively to the redeemable Class B shares that were outstanding as a result of the Initial Public Offering. Concentration of Credit Risk Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash accounts in a financial institution, which, at times, may exceed the Federal Depository Insurance Coverage of $250,000. The Company has not experienced losses on these accounts. Fair Value of Financial Instruments The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurement,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the balance sheet, primarily due to their short-term nature. The Company follows the guidance in ASC Topic 820 for its financial assets and liabilities that are re-measured and reported at fair value at each reporting period, and non-financial assets and liabilities that are re-measured and reported at fair value at least annually. The fair value of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities reflects management’s estimate of amounts that the Company would have received in connection with the sale of the assets or paid in connection with the transfer of the liabilities in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In connection with measuring the fair value of its assets and liabilities, the Company seeks to maximize the use of observable inputs (market data obtained from independent sources) and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs (internal assumptions about how market participants would price assets and liabilities). The following fair value hierarchy is used to classify assets and liabilities based on the observable inputs and unobservable inputs used in order to value the assets and liabilities: Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. An active market for an asset or liability is a market in which transactions for the asset or liability occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis. Level 2: Observable inputs other than Level 1 inputs. Examples of Level 2 inputs include quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities and quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active. Level 3: Unobservable inputs based on our assessment of the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. The Company’s Warrants are accounted for as liabilities in accordance with ASC 815-40 and are presented within warrant liabilities on the condensed balance sheet. The warrant liabilities are measured at fair value at inception and on a recurring basis, with changes in fair value presented within change in fair value of warrant liabilities in the condensed statements of operations. The Public Warrants commenced separate trading on June 28, 2021. See Note 4 for additional information on assets and liabilities measured at fair value. Recent Accounting Pronouncements In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt — Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging — Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40) (“ASU 2020-06”) to simplify accounting for certain financial instruments. ASU 2020-06 eliminates the current models that require separation of beneficial conversion and cash conversion features from convertible instruments and simplifies the derivative scope exception guidance pertaining to equity classification of contracts in an entity’s own equity. The new standard also introduces additional disclosures for convertible debt and freestanding instruments that are indexed to and settled in an entity’s own equity. ASU 2020-06 amends the diluted earnings per share guidance, including the requirement to use the if-converted method for all convertible instruments. ASU 2020-06 is effective effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. We are currently assessing the impact, if any, that ASU 2020-06 would have on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows. |

Related Party Transactions [Abstract] | |
RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS | NOTE 3 — RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS Founder Shares On June 22, 2020, 7,187,500 shares of our Class B common stock were issued to B. Riley Principal Investments, LLC (the “Founder Shares”). All of the Founder Shares were contributed to the Sponsor in June 2020. Subsequently, on April 19, 2021, the Sponsor surrendered 2,875,000 Founder Shares to the Company for no consideration, resulting in the Sponsor owning 4,312,500 Founder Shares (Note 6). As used herein, unless the context otherwise requires, Founder Shares shall be deemed to include the shares of Class A common stock issuable upon conversion thereof. The Founder Shares are identical to the Class A common stock included in the Public Units sold in the Public Offering, except that the Founder Shares automatically convert into shares of Class A common stock at the time of the Initial Business Combination and are subject to certain transfer restrictions, as described in more detail below, and the holders of the Founder Shares, as described in more detail below, have agreed to certain restrictions and will have certain registration rights with respect thereto. The number of Founder Shares issued was determined based on the expectation that the Founder Shares would represent 20% of the outstanding shares of common stock upon completion of the Public Offering excluding the Private Placement Shares. The Company’s Sponsor, officers and directors have agreed, subject to limited exceptions, not to transfer, assign or sell any Founder Shares held by them until the earlier to occur of: (i) one year after the completion of the Initial Business Combination, (ii) the last sale price of Class A 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 Initial Business Combination, or (iii) the date following the completion of the Initial Business Combination on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, stock exchange, reorganization or other similar transaction that results in all of the public stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of common stock for cash, securities or other property. Business Combination Marketing Agreement Pursuant to a business combination marketing agreement, the Company engaged B. Riley Securities, Inc. as advisors in connection with its Initial Business Combination to assist it in arranging meetings with its stockholders to discuss a potential business combination and the target business’ attributes, introduce it to potential investors that may be interested in purchasing its securities, assist it in obtaining stockholder approval for its Initial Business Combination and assist it with the preparation of press releases and public filings in connection with the Initial Business Combination. The Company will pay B. Riley Securities, Inc. for such services upon the consummation of the Initial Business Combination a cash fee in an amount equal to 3.5% of the gross proceeds of the Public Offering (exclusive of any applicable finders’ fees which might become payable) ($6,037,500 since the underwriters’ over-allotment option was exercised in full). Pursuant to the terms of the business combination marketing agreement, no fee will be due if the Company does not complete an Initial Business Combination. Administrative Fees Commencing on May 11, 2021, the Company agreed to pay an affiliate of the Sponsor a total of $3,750 per month for office space, utilities and secretarial and administrative support. Upon completion of the Initial Business Combination or the Company’s liquidation, it will cease paying these monthly fees. At December 31, 2021, amounts due to related party includes $27,698 for administrative fees payable to the Sponsor. Note Payable — Related Party The Company had a note payable to the Sponsor which allowed the Company to borrow up to $300,000 without interest to be used for a portion of the expenses associated with the Public Offering. The Note Payable was payable on the earlier of: (i) December 31, 2021 or (ii) the date on which the Company consummated an initial public offering of its securities. On May 17, 2021, the note payable – related party in the amount of $100,000 was repaid in full using proceeds from the Public Offering and the Private Placement. Due to Related Party Amounts owed to Sponsor for advances of operating expenses were $27,698 and $998 at December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The advances in 2021 include administrative fees of $27,698. The Company also paid B. Riley Securities, Inc. $31,680 of offering costs for expense incurred in connection with the Public Offering on May 11, 2021. Any amounts payable to our Sponsor or in the event there may be a future working capital loan from our Sponsor these amounts would be repaid from funds held outside the Trust Account or from funds released to the Company upon completion of the Initial Business Combination. Up to $1,500,000 of such working capital loans, in the event there are any outstanding amounts at the time of the completion of the Initial Business Combination, may be convertible into private placement-equivalent units at a price of $10.00 per unit at the option of the lender. None of our Sponsor, members of our management team nor any of their affiliates is under any obligation to advance funds for working capital loans. |

RECURRING FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS | NOTE 4 — RECURRING FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS The following table presents information about the Company’s assets and liabilities that were measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2021, and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques the Company utilized to determine such fair value. Quoted Significant Significant Prices In Other Other Active Observable Observable December 31, Markets Inputs Inputs 2021 (Level 1) (Level 2) (Level 3) Assets: Investments held in Trust Account (1) $ 172,507,535 $ 172,507,535 $ — $ — 172,507,535 172,507,535 — — Liabilities: Public Warrants $ 4,600,000 $ 4,600,000 $ — $ — Private Placement Warrants 166,000 — — 166,000 Warrant Liability $ 4,766,000 $ 4,600,000 $ — $ 166,000 (1) The fair value of the investments held in the Trust Account approximates the carrying amounts primarily due to the short-term nature. Transfers to/from Levels 1, 2, and 3 are recognized at the end of the reporting periods. The estimated fair value of the Public Warrants transferred from a Level 3 measurement to a Level 1 fair value measurement as of December 31, 2021 after the Public Warrants were separately listed and traded. Derivative Liability and Warrants In connection with the Public Offering, the Company granted the underwriters an option to purchase 2,250,000 of the Company’s Public Units for $10.00 per unit, for 45 days commencing on May 11, 2021 (grant date). Since this option extended beyond the closing of the Public Offering, this option feature represented a call option that met the definition of a derivative. Accordingly, the call option has been separately accounted for at a fair value with the change in fair value between the grant date and June 14, 2021 (the date the overallotment was exercised) recorded as change in fair value of warrant liability. The Company recorded a liability of $115,205 with corresponding decrease to additional paid in capital to record the fair value of the call option. The fair value of the call option was $30,220 on June 14, 2021 and the decrease in such fair value of the derivative liability in the amount of $84,985 is included in other income as change in fair value of derivative liability in the statement of operations. The underwriters exercised their overallotment option to purchase 2,250,000 Public Units on June 14, 2021. The Company used the Black-Scholes valuation model to determine the fair value of the call option on May 11, 2021 (grant date) and June 14, 2021 using assumptions commensurate with each measurement period as shown in the following table: May 11, June 14, 2021 2021 (Initial (Measurement Inputs Measurement) Date) Risk-free interest rate 0.1 % 0.1 % Expected term (years) 0.12 0.03 Expected volatility 4.0 % 4.0 % Exercise price $ 10.00 $ 10.00 Dividend yield - - The Warrants are accounted for as liabilities in accordance with ASC 815-40 and are presented within warrant liabilities on the Balance Sheet. The warrant liabilities are measured at fair value at inception and on a recurring basis, with changes in fair value presented within change in fair value of warrant liabilities in the Statement of Operations. The Company utilized a Monte Carlo simulation model to value the Public Warrants on the initial measurement date. A Modified Black-Scholes model is used to value the Private Placement Warrants at each reporting period. The changes in fair value of warrants is recognized as part of other income (expense) in the statement of operations. Inherent in a binomial options pricing model are assumptions related to expected share-price volatility, expected life, risk-free interest rate and dividend yield. The Company estimates the volatility of its ordinary shares based on historical volatility that matches the expected remaining life of the warrants. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury zero-coupon yield curve on the grant date for a maturity similar to the expected remaining life of the warrants. The expected life of the warrants is assumed to be equivalent to their remaining contractual term. The dividend rate is based on the historical rate, which the Company anticipates to remain at zero. The key inputs into the Monte Carlo simulation model were as follows at initial measurement on May 11, 2021 and June 14, 2021: Stock price $ 9.69 Exercise price $ 11.50 Expected term (years) 6.25 Expected volatility 14.0 % Risk-free rate 1.1 % Dividend yield - The key inputs into the Black-Scholes Model were as follows at initial measurement on May 11, 2021 and June 14, 2021: Risk-free interest rate 1.1 % Expected term (years) 6.3 Expected volatility 14.0 % Exercise price $ 11.50 Dividend yield - Subsequent Measurement At December 31, 2021, the key inputs into the Black-Scholes Model were as follows in determining the fair value of the private warrants: December 31, Inputs 2021 Risk-free interest rate 1.30 % Expected term (years) 5.6 Expected volatility 13.0 % Exercise price $ 11.50 Dividend yield - Derivative and warrant liability at January 1, 2021 $ - Initial warrant liability measurements at May 11,2021 and June 14, 2021 5,539,500 Initial derivative liability for overallotment option 115,205 Transfer of public warrants to Level 1 (5,347,500 ) Value of derivative liability from overallotment exercised (30,220 ) Change in fair value of derivative and warrant liability (110,985 ) Warrant liability at December 31,2021 $ 166,000 |

COMMITMENTS | NOTE 5 — COMMITMENTS Registration Rights The holders of Founder Shares (and any shares of Class A common stock issuable upon conversion of the Founder Shares), Private Placement Units, Private Placement Shares, Private Placement Warrants (and any shares of Class A common stock issuable upon the exercise of the Private Placement Warrants) and any securities that may be issued upon conversion of working capital loans, if any, have registration rights to require the Company to register the resale of any of its securities held by them (in the case of the Founder Shares, only after conversion of such shares to shares of Class A common stock) pursuant to a registration rights agreement. These holders are also entitled to certain piggyback registration rights. However, the registration rights agreement provides that the Company will not permit any registration statement filed under the Securities Act to become effective until termination of the applicable lock-up period for the securities to be registered. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements. |

Warrants Disclosure [Abstract] | |
WARRANTS | NOTE 6 — WARRANTS Warrants may only be exercised for a whole number of shares. No fractional Warrants will be issued upon separation of the Units and only whole Warrants will trade. The Warrants will become exercisable on the later of (a) 30 days after the completion of the Initial Business Combination or (b) 12 months from the closing of the Public Offering; provided in each case that the Company has an effective registration statement under the Securities Act covering the shares of Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants and a current prospectus relating to them is available (or the Company permits holders to exercise their Warrants on a cashless basis and such cashless exercise is exempt from registration under the Securities Act). The Company will as soon as practicable, but in no event later than 15 business days, after the closing of the Initial Business Combination, use its best efforts to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) a registration statement for the registration, under the Securities Act, of the shares of Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants, to cause such registration statement to become effective within 60 business days after the closing of the Initial Business Combination and to maintain a current prospectus relating to those shares of Class A common stock until the Warrants expire or are redeemed, as specified in the Company’s warrant agreement. If the shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants are not registered under the Securities Act by the 60th business day after the closing of the Initial Business Combination, the Company will be required to permit holders to exercise their Warrants on a “cashless basis” in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act or another exemption. Notwithstanding the above, if the Company’s Class A common stock is at the time of any exercise of a Warrant not listed on a national securities exchange such that it satisfies the definition of a “covered security” under Section 18(b)(1) of the Securities Act, the Company may, at its option, require holders of Warrants who exercise their Warrants to do so on a “cashless basis” in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act and, in the event the Company elects, the Company will not be required to file or maintain in effect a registration statement, but the Company will use its best efforts to register or qualify the shares under applicable blue sky laws to the extent an exemption is not available. The Warrants will expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, five years after the completion of an Initial Business Combination or earlier upon redemption or liquidation. The Private Placement Warrants are identical to the Warrants underlying the Units sold in the Public Offering, except that the Private Placement Warrants and the shares of Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the Private Placement Warrants will not be transferable, assignable or salable until 30 days after the completion of the Initial Business Combination, subject to certain limited exceptions. Additionally, the Private Placement Warrants will be non-redeemable so long as they are held by the Sponsor or its permitted transferees. If the Private Placement Warrants are held by someone other than the Sponsor or its permitted transferees, the Private Placement Warrants will be redeemable by the Company and exercisable by such holders on the same basis as the Warrants. The Company may call the Warrants for redemption (except with respect to the Private Placement Warrants): ● in whole and not in part; ● at a price of $0.01 per warrant; ● upon a minimum of 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption (the “30-day redemption period”); and ● if, and only if, the last sale price of the Class A common stock equals or exceeds $18.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which the Company sends the notice of redemption to the warrant holders. If the Company calls the Warrants for redemption, management will have the option to require all holders that wish to exercise the Warrants to do so on a “cashless basis,” as described in the warrant agreement. The exercise price and number of shares of Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances including in the event of a share dividend, or recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation. In addition, if (x) the Company issues additional shares of Class A common stock or securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for shares of Class A common stock 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 of Class A common stock (with such issue price or effective issue price to be determined in good faith by the Company’s board of directors and, in the case of any such issuance to the Sponsor or its affiliates, without taking into account any Founder Shares held by the Sponsor 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 funding the Initial Business Combination, and (z) the volume weighted average trading price of the Class A 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 (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 above will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 180% of the higher of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price. Additionally, in no event will the Company be required to net cash settle any Warrant. In the event that a registration statement is not effective for the exercised Warrants, the purchaser of a Unit containing such Warrant will have paid the full purchase price for the Unit solely for the share of Class A common stock underlying such Unit. There will be no redemption rights or liquidating distributions with respect to the Warrants, which will expire worthless if the Company fails to complete an Initial Business Combination within the 24-month time period. As more fully described in Note 2, the Company accounts for the warrants for shares of the Company’s common stock as a liability since they are not indexed to the Company’s stock. |

INCOME TAXES | NOTE 7 — INCOME TAXES The income tax provision for the year ended December 31, 2021 and for the period from June 19, 2020 (Inception) through December 31, 2020 consists of the following: For the from 2020 Year Ended through December 31, December 31, Deferred: Federal $ (119,163 ) $ (304 ) Total (119,163 ) (304 ) Change in valuation allowance – income tax provision 119,163 304 Total provision for income taxes $ — $ — The Company’s net deferred tax asset at December 31, 2021 and 2020 are as follows: As of December 31, 2021 2020 Deferred tax assets: Accrued liabilities and other $ 5,817 $ — Net operating loss carryforward 113,650 304 Total deferred tax assets 119,467 304 Valuation allowance (119,467 ) (304 ) Net deferred tax asset $ — $ — For the year ended December 31, 2021 and the period from June 19, 2020 (Inception) through December 31, 2020, the Company had U.S. federal net operating loss carryovers (“NOLs”) available to offset future taxable income of $541,192 and $1,448, respectively. In accordance with Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code, deductibility of any of the Company’s future NOLs may be subject to an annual limitation in the event of a change in control as defined under the regulations. In assessing the realization of the deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion of all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which temporary differences representing net future deductible amounts become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. After consideration of all of the information available, management determined that a valuation allowance was required. For the year ended December 31, 2021, the change in the valuation allowance was $119,467. For the period from June 19, 2020 (Inception) through December 31, 2020, the change in the valuation allowance was $304. A reconciliation of the federal income tax rate to the Company’s effective income tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2021 and for the period from June 19, 2020 (Inception) through December 31, 2020 is as follows: Year Ended For the Provision for income taxes at federal statutory rate 21.0 % 21.0 % Offering costs associated with warrants recorded as a liability 15.8 % — Change in fair value of derivative liability and warrants (108.4 )% — Valuation allowance 71.6 % (21.0 )% Effective income tax rate 0.0 % 0.0 % The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and in New York and is subject to examination. The Company’s tax returns since inception remain open and subject to examination. On March 27, 2020, President Trump signed the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security “CARES” Act into law. The CARES Act includes several significant business tax provisions that, among other things, would eliminate the taxable income limit for certain net operating losses (“NOLs”) and allow businesses to carry back NOLs arising in 2018, 2019, and 2020 to the five prior years, accelerate refunds of previously generated corporate alternative minimum tax credits, generally loosen the business interest limitation under IRC section 163(j) from 30 percent to 50 percent, and allows businesses to immediately expense the full cost of Qualified Improvement Property, retroactive to tax years beginning on or after January 1, 2018. The Company has determined that the CARES Act did not have any impact on the Company’s financial position or statement of operations. |

Of the 17,850,000 Class A common shares, 17,250,000 Class A common shares issued in the Public Offering are classified as temporary equity since they are subject to possible redemption as more fully described in Note 1 and 2. The remaining 600,000 Class A common shares and 4,312,500 Class B common shares issued and outstanding at December 31, 2021 are classified as permanent equity since t he Sponsor and the Company’s officers and directors have entered into a letter agreement with the Company, pursuant to which they have agreed to waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account Preferred Stock The Company is authorized to issue 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value of $0.0001 per share, with such designations, voting and other rights and preferences as may be determined from time to time by the Company’s board of directors.

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Basis of Presentation | Basis of Presentation The financial statements of the Company are presented in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). |
Emerging Growth Company | 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 shareholder 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 statement(s) 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 | Use of Estimates The preparation of the financial statement in conformity with 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 financial statement. Estimates are used when accounting for certain items such as valuation of investments held in Trust Account, derivative and warrant liabilities, and accounting for income tax valuation allowances. 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 statement, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. |
Cash and Cash Equivalents | Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers all short-term investments with an original maturity date of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. The Company did not have any cash equivalents as of December 31, 2021 and 2020. |
Investments Held in Trust Account | Investments Held in Trust Account As of December 31, 2021, the Company had $172,507,535 in investments held in the Trust Account. The assets held in the Trust Account were held in a mutual fund that invests in U.S. Treasury securities. |
Class A Common Stock Subject to Possible Redemption | Class A Common Stock Subject to Possible Redemption All of the 17,250,000 shares of Class A common stock sold as part of the Public Units in the Public Offering 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 Initial Business Combination and in connection with certain amendments to the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation. In accordance with SEC and its staff’s guidance on redeemable equity instruments, which has been codified in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 480-10-S99, redemption provisions not solely within the control of the Company require shares of common stock subject to redemption to be classified outside of permanent equity. Therefore, all of the shares of Class A common stock sold in the Public Offering has been classified outside of permanent equity. The Company recognizes changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and adjusts the carrying value of redeemable common stock to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Increases or decreases in the carrying amount of redeemable common stock are affected by charges against additional paid in capital and accumulated deficit. As of December 31, 2021, the shares of Class A common stock reflected in the balance sheet are reconciled in the following table: Gross proceeds $ 172,500,000 Less: Proceeds allocated to Public Warrants (5,347,500 ) Proceeds allocated to derivative liability (84,985 ) Issuance costs allocated to Class A ordinary shares (3,896,314 ) Plus: Remeasurement adjustment of carrying value to redemption value 9,298,579 Reclassification of derivative liability upon exercise of overallotment option 30,220 Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption $ 172,500,000 |
Note Payable - Related Party | Note Payable - Related Party The Company had a note payable to Sponsor which allowed the Company to borrow up to $300,000 without interest to be used for a portion of the expenses associated with the Public Offering. The notes payable was payable on the earlier of: (i) December 31, 2021 or (ii) the date on which the Company consummated an initial public offering of its securities. Borrowings on the note payable due to related party was $100,000 on the date of the Public Offering. On May 17, 2021, the note payable – related party in the amount of $100,000 was repaid using proceeds from the Public Offering and the Private Placement. |
Warrant Liability | Warrant Liability The Company accounts for warrants for shares of the Company’s common stock that are not indexed to its own stock as liabilities at fair value on the balance sheet in accordance with subtopic ASC 815-40-15, “Derivatives and Hedging - Contract’s in Entity’s Own Equity”. The warrants will be re-evaluated for the proper accounting treatment at each reporting period and are subject to remeasurement at each balance sheet date and any change in fair value is recognized as a component of other income (expense), net on the statement of operations. The Company will continue to adjust the liability for changes in fair value until the earlier of the exercise or expiration of the common stock warrants. At that time, the portion of the liability related to the common stock warrants will be reclassified to additional paid-in capital. At December 31, 2021, there were 5,950,000 Warrants issued in connection with the Public Offering (the 5,750,000 public Warrants and the 200,000 Private Placement Warrants). |
Offering Costs Associated with the Public Offering | Offering Costs Associated with the Public Offering The Company complies with the requirements of ASC 340-10-S99-1 and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 5A - Expenses of Offering. Offering costs consist principally of professional and registration fees incurred through the balance sheet date that are related to the Public Offering. Offering costs directly attributable to the issuance of an equity contract to be classified in equity are recorded as a reduction in equity. Offering costs for equity contracts that are classified as assets and liabilities are expensed immediately. The Company incurred offering costs amounting to $4,021,103 as a result of the Public Offering (consisting of underwriting commissions of $3,450,000 (2% of the gross proceeds of the Public Offering) and other offering costs of $571,103). The Company recorded $3,896,314 of offering costs as a reduction of temporary equity in connection with the shares of Class A common stock included in the Units. The Company immediately expensed $124,789 of offering costs in connection with the Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants that were classified as liabilities. |
Income Taxes | Income Taxes Prior to the change in ownership on May 11, 2021 as a result of the Public Offering, the Company was included in the consolidated tax return of B. Riley Financial (the “Parent”). During this period, the Company calculated the provision for income taxes by using a “separate return” method. Under this method the Company is assumed to file a separate return with the tax authority, thereby reporting its taxable income or loss and paying the applicable tax to, or receiving the appropriate refund from, the Parent. The current provision was the amount of tax payable or refundable on the basis of a hypothetical, current year, separate return. Following changes in ownership on May 11, 2021, the Company deconsolidated from the Parent for tax purposes. Beginning May 11, 2021, the Company files separate corporate federal and state and local income tax returns. Any difference between the tax provision (or benefit) allocated to the Company under the separate return method and payments to be made by (or received from) the Parent for tax expense are treated as either dividends or capital contribution. Accordingly, the amount by which the Company’s tax liability under the separate return method exceeds the amount of tax liability ultimately settled as a result of using incremental expenses of the Parent is periodically settled as a capital contribution from the Parent to the Company. The Company complies with the accounting and reporting requirements of ASC Topic 740 “Income Taxes,” which requires an asset and liability approach to financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed for differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities that will result in future taxable or deductible amounts, based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. ASC Topic 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. As of December 31, 2021, there were no unrecognized tax benefits and no amounts accrued for interest and penalties. 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 may be subject to potential examination by federal, state and city taxing authorities in the areas of income taxes. These potential examinations may include questioning the timing and amount of deductions, the nexus of income among various tax jurisdictions and compliance with federal, state and city 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. |
Unrecognized Tax Benefits | Unrecognized Tax Benefits The Company recognizes tax positions in its financial statements only when it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained on examination by the relevant taxing authority based on the technical merits of the position. A position that meets this standard is measured at the largest amount of benefit that will more likely than not be realized on settlement. A liability is established for differences between positions taken in a tax return and amounts recognized in the financial statements. There were no unrecognized tax benefits as of December 31, 2021. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. No amounts were accrued for interest expense and penalties related to income tax matters as of December 31, 2021. The Company is subject to income tax examinations by major taxing authorities since inception. |
Net Loss Per Common Share | Net Income Per Common Share The Company has two classes of shares, which are referred to as Class A common stock and Class B common stock (the “Founder Shares”). Earnings and losses are shared pro rata between the two classes of shares. Private and public Warrants to purchase 5,950,000 shares of common stock at $11.50 per share were issued in connection with the IPO and exercise of overallotment. At December 31 2021, no Warrants have been exercised. The 5,950,000 potential common shares for outstanding Warrants to purchase the Company’s stock were excluded from diluted earnings per share for the year ended December 31, 2021, because the Warrants are contingently exercisable, and the contingencies have not yet been met. Basic and diluted earnings per share for the period from June 19, 2020, (Inception) through December 31, 2020 gives effect retroactively to the redeemable Class B shares that were outstanding as a result of the Initial Public Offering. The basic weighted average Class B common shares outstanding of 4,058,219 in 2021 excludes 254,281 common shares that are included in the diluted weighted average Class B common shares which is the impact of the 562,500 Class B common shares that were subject to forfeiture and contingently issuable upon completion of the Initial Public Offering. In 2020, the dilutive impact of the 562,500 Class B common shares that were subject to forfeiture and contingently issuable upon completion of the Initial Public Offering were antidilutive. The table below presents a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator used to compute basic and diluted net income per share for each class of common stock: For the Year For the December 31, December 31, 2021 2020 Basic and diluted weighted average shares outstanding, class A common shares 11,229,781 n/a Basic and diluted Net income per share, Class A common shares $ 00.1 n/a Basic weighted average shares outstanding, Class B common shares 4,058,219 3,750,000 Basic Net income per share, Class B common shares $ 0.01 $ 0.00 Diluted weighted average shares outstanding, Class B common shares 4,312,500 3,750,000 Diluted Net income per share, Class B common shares $ 0.01 $ 0.00 n/a - not applicable as there were no Class A Common Stock outstanding in 2020. For the period from June 19, 2020, (Inception) through December 31, 2020, there were no shares of redeemable common stock outstanding or other common stock equivalents outstanding. Basic and diluted earnings per share for the period from June 19, 2020, (Inception) through December 31, 2020 was $0.00 based on 4,312,500 shares outstanding which gives effect retroactively to the redeemable Class B shares that were outstanding as a result of the Initial Public Offering. |
Concentration of Credit Risk | Concentration of Credit Risk Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash accounts in a financial institution, which, at times, may exceed the Federal Depository Insurance Coverage of $250,000. The Company has not experienced losses on these accounts. |
Fair Value of Financial Instruments | Fair Value of Financial Instruments The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurement,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the balance sheet, primarily due to their short-term nature. The Company follows the guidance in ASC Topic 820 for its financial assets and liabilities that are re-measured and reported at fair value at each reporting period, and non-financial assets and liabilities that are re-measured and reported at fair value at least annually. The fair value of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities reflects management’s estimate of amounts that the Company would have received in connection with the sale of the assets or paid in connection with the transfer of the liabilities in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In connection with measuring the fair value of its assets and liabilities, the Company seeks to maximize the use of observable inputs (market data obtained from independent sources) and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs (internal assumptions about how market participants would price assets and liabilities). The following fair value hierarchy is used to classify assets and liabilities based on the observable inputs and unobservable inputs used in order to value the assets and liabilities: Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. An active market for an asset or liability is a market in which transactions for the asset or liability occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis. Level 2: Observable inputs other than Level 1 inputs. Examples of Level 2 inputs include quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities and quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active. Level 3: Unobservable inputs based on our assessment of the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. The Company’s Warrants are accounted for as liabilities in accordance with ASC 815-40 and are presented within warrant liabilities on the condensed balance sheet. The warrant liabilities are measured at fair value at inception and on a recurring basis, with changes in fair value presented within change in fair value of warrant liabilities in the condensed statements of operations. The Public Warrants commenced separate trading on June 28, 2021. See Note 4 for additional information on assets and liabilities measured at fair value. |
Recent Accounting Pronouncements | Recent Accounting Pronouncements In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt — Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging — Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40) (“ASU 2020-06”) to simplify accounting for certain financial instruments. ASU 2020-06 eliminates the current models that require separation of beneficial conversion and cash conversion features from convertible instruments and simplifies the derivative scope exception guidance pertaining to equity classification of contracts in an entity’s own equity. The new standard also introduces additional disclosures for convertible debt and freestanding instruments that are indexed to and settled in an entity’s own equity. ASU 2020-06 amends the diluted earnings per share guidance, including the requirement to use the if-converted method for all convertible instruments. ASU 2020-06 is effective effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. We are currently assessing the impact, if any, that ASU 2020-06 would have on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows. |

Warrants description | The exercise price and number of shares of Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances including in the event of a share dividend, or recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation. In addition, if (x) the Company issues additional shares of Class A common stock or securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for shares of Class A common stock 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 of Class A common stock (with such issue price or effective issue price to be determined in good faith by the Company’s board of directors and, in the case of any such issuance to the Sponsor or its affiliates, without taking into account any Founder Shares held by the Sponsor 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 funding the Initial Business Combination, and (z) the volume weighted average trading price of the Class A 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 (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 above will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 180% of the higher of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price. Additionally, in no event will the Company be required to net cash settle any Warrant. In the event that a registration statement is not effective for the exercised Warrants, the purchaser of a Unit containing such Warrant will have paid the full purchase price for the Unit solely for the share of Class A common stock underlying such Unit. There will be no redemption rights or liquidating distributions with respect to the Warrants, which will expire worthless if the Company fails to complete an Initial Business Combination within the 24-month time period. |

The CARES Act includes several significant business tax provisions that, among other things, would eliminate the taxable income limit for certain net operating losses (“NOLs”) and allow businesses to carry back NOLs arising in 2018, 2019, and 2020 to the five prior years, accelerate refunds of previously generated corporate alternative minimum tax credits, generally loosen the business interest limitation under IRC section 163(j) from 30 percent to 50 percent, and allows businesses to immediately expense the full cost of Qualified Improvement Property, retroactive to tax years beginning on or after January 1, 2018. |
