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

Our management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and the sale of Private Placement Shares, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be applied generally toward consummating a Business Combination. There is no assurance that we will be able to complete a Business Combination successfully. We must complete one or more initial Business Combinations having an aggregate fair market value of at least 80% of the assets held in the Trust Account (excluding the deferred underwriting commissions and taxes payable on income earned on the Trust Account) at the time of the agreement to enter into the initial Business Combination. However, we 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.
If we are unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination
Period, we will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up;
(ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days
thereafter, redeem the Public Shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash,
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 our income taxes, if any (less up to
Liquidity and Going Concern
As of
Our liquidity needs to date have been satisfied through
Our management has determined that we may not have sufficient liquidity to meet our anticipated obligations through the earlier of our consummation of an initial business combination or our liquidation date. Over this time period, we will be using these funds for paying existing accounts payable, 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 Business Combination.
In connection with our assessment of going concern considerations in accordance
with FASB Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2014-15, "Disclosures of
Uncertainties about an Entity's Ability to Continue as a Going Concern," our
management has determined that the liquidity issue and the mandatory liquidation
and subsequent dissolution raises substantial doubt about our 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

Management continues to evaluate the impact of these types of risks on the industry and has concluded that while it is reasonably possible that these types of risks could have a negative effect on our financial position, results of our operations and/or search for a target company, the specific impact is not readily determinable as of the date of these unaudited condensed financial statements. The unaudited condensed financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Registration Rights
The holders of Founder Shares, Private Placement Shares, and Class A ordinary shares that may be issued upon conversion of Working Capital Loans were entitled to registration rights pursuant to a registration rights agreement signed upon consummation of the Initial Public Offering. These holders were entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short form demands, that we register such securities. In addition, these holders will have certain "piggy-back" registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to the completion of the initial Business Combination. We will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of condensed financial statements and related disclosures in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in
Class A Ordinary Shares Subject to Possible Redemption
We account for our Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption (our
Public Shares) in accordance with the guidance in ASC 480. Class A ordinary
shares subject to mandatory redemption (if any) are classified as liability
instruments and are measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable Class A
ordinary shares (including Class A ordinary shares that feature redemption
rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption
upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the Company's control)
are classified as temporary equity. At all other times, Class A ordinary shares
are classified as shareholders' equity. As part of the Private Placement, the
Company issued 600,000 Private Placement Shares to the Sponsor. These Private
Placement Shares will not be transferable, assignable or salable until 30 days
after the completion of our initial Business Combination. They are also
considered non-redeemable and are presented as permanent equity in the Company's
condensed balance sheets. Our Class A ordinary shares sold in the Initial Public
Offering feature certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of
the Company's control and subject to the occurrence of uncertain future events.
Accordingly, as of
Under ASC 480-10S99, we have elected to recognize changes in the redemption value immediately as they occur and adjust the carrying value of the security to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. This method would view the end of the reporting period as if it were also the redemption date for the security. Effective upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company recognized the accretion from initial book value to redemption amount value. The change in the carrying value of redeemable Class A ordinary shares resulted in charges against additional paid-in capital and accumulated deficit. Subsequently, we recognized changes in the redemption value as an increase in redemption value of Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption as reflected on the accompanying unaudited condensed statements of changes in shareholders' deficit.
Investments Held in the Trust Account
Our portfolio of investments is comprised of

are classified as trading securities. When our investments held in the Trust Account are comprised of money market funds, the investments are recognized at fair value. Trading securities and investments in money market funds are presented on the condensed balance sheets at fair value at the end of each reporting period. Gains and losses resulting from the change in fair value of these securities are included in income from investments held in the Trust Account in the accompanying unaudited condensed statements of operations. The estimated fair values of investments held in the Trust Account are determined using available market information.
Offering Costs Associated with the Initial Public Offering
Offering costs consisted of legal, accounting, underwriting fees and other costs
incurred through the balance sheet date that were directly related to the
Initial Public Offering and that were charged against the carrying value of the
Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption upon the completion of
the Initial Public Offering in
Net Income (Loss) Per Ordinary Share
We comply with accounting and disclosure requirements of FASB ASC Topic 260, "Earnings Per Share." We have two classes of shares, which are referred to as Class A ordinary shares and Class B ordinary shares. Income and losses are shared pro rata between the two classes of shares, which assumes a business combination as the most likely outcome. Net income (loss) per ordinary share is calculated by dividing the net income (loss) by the weighted average shares of ordinary shares outstanding for the respective period.
At
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Our management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards updates, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying condensed financial statements.
JOBS Act
The Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the "JOBS Act") contains provisions that, among other things, relax certain reporting requirements for qualifying public companies. We qualify as an "emerging growth company" and under the JOBS Act are allowed to comply with new or revised accounting pronouncements based on the effective date for private (not publicly traded) companies. We are electing to delay the adoption of new or revised accounting standards, and as a result, we may not comply with new or revised accounting standards on the relevant dates on which adoption of such standards is required for non-emerging growth companies. As a result, the condensed financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with new or revised accounting pronouncements as of public company effective dates.
Additionally, we are in the process of evaluating the benefits of relying on the other reduced reporting requirements provided by the JOBS Act. Subject to certain conditions set forth in the JOBS Act, if, as an "emerging growth company," we choose to rely on such exemptions we may not be required to, among other things, (i) provide an auditor's attestation report on our system of internal controls over financial reporting pursuant to Section 404, (ii) provide all of the compensation disclosure that may be required of non-emerging growth public companies under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, (iii) comply with any requirement that may be adopted by the PCAOB regarding mandatory audit firm rotation or a supplement to the auditor's report providing additional information about the audit and the financial statements (auditor discussion and analysis) and (iv) disclose certain executive compensation related items such as the correlation between executive compensation and performance and comparisons of the CEO's compensation to median employee compensation. These exemptions will apply for a period of five years following the completion of our Initial Public Offering or until we are no longer an "emerging growth company," whichever is earlier.
