Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes forward-lookingstatements within the
meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and
Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (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. Such statements include, but are not limited
to, possible business combinations and the financing thereof, and related
matters, as well as all other statements other than statements of
historical fact included in this Form 10-Q. Factors that might cause or contribute
to such a discrepancy include, but are not limited to, those described in our

Offering") was declared effective on
Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, we consummated
the private placement ("Private Placement") of 6,600,000 warrants (each, a
"Private Placement Warrant" and collectively, the "Private Placement Warrants")

If we are unable to complete a Business Combination within 24 months from the
closing of the Initial Public Offering, or
We intend to effectuate our Initial Business Combination using cash from the proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and the Private Placement of the Private Placement Warrants, the proceeds of the sale of our shares in connection with our Initial Business Combination (pursuant to forward purchase agreements or backstop agreements we may enter into following the consummation of this offering or otherwise), shares issued to the owners of the target, debt issued to bank or other lenders or the owners of the target, or a combination of the foregoing.
The issuance of additional shares in connection with a business combination to the owners of the target or other investors:
• may significantly dilute the equity interest of investors in this
offering, which dilution would increase if the anti-dilution provisions
in the Class B common stock resulted in the issuance of Class A common
stock on a greater than one-to-one basis upon conversion of the Class B
common stock;
• may subordinate the rights of holders of Class A common stock if shares
of preferred stock are issued with rights senior to those afforded our
Class A common stock;
• could cause a change in control if a substantial number of shares of our
Class A common stock are issued, which may affect, among other things,
our ability to use our net operating loss carry forwards, if any, and
could result in the resignation or removal of our present officers and
directors;
• may have the effect of delaying or preventing a change of control of us
by diluting the share ownership or voting rights of a person seeking to
obtain control of us; and
• may adversely affect prevailing market prices for our Class A common
stock and/or warrants.
Similarly, if we issue debt securities or otherwise incur significant debt to bank or other lenders or the owners of a target, it could result in:
• default and foreclosure on our assets if our operating revenues after an
initial business combination are insufficient to repay our debt
obligations;
• acceleration of our obligations to repay the indebtedness even if we make
all principal and interest payments when due if we breach certain
covenants that require the maintenance of certain financial ratios or
reserves without a waiver or renegotiation of that covenant;
• our immediate payment of all principal and accrued interest, if any, if
the debt is payable on demand;
• our inability to obtain necessary additional financing if the debt
contains covenants restricting our ability to obtain such financing while
the debt is outstanding;
• our inability to pay dividends on our Class A common stock;
• using a substantial portion of our cash flow to pay principal and
interest on our debt, which will reduce the funds available for dividends
on our Class A common stock if declared, expenses, capital expenditures,
acquisitions and other general corporate purposes;
• limitations on our flexibility in planning for and reacting to changes in
our business and in the industry in which we operate;

competitors who have less debt.

Based on the foregoing, management believes that we will have sufficient working capital and borrowing capacity from our Sponsor or an affiliate of our Sponsor, or certain of our officers and directors to meet our needs through the earlier of the consummation of a Business Combination or one year from this filing. 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.
Contractual Obligations
We do not have any long-term debt obligations, capital lease obligations,
operating lease obligations, purchase obligations or long-term liabilities,

Critical Accounting Policies
This management's discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of our financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities in our financial statements. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and judgments, including those related to fair value of financial instruments and accrued expenses. We base our estimates on historical experience, known trends and events and various other factors that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We have identified the following as its critical accounting policies:
Class A Common Stock Subject to Possible Redemption
We account for our Class A common stock subject to possible redemption in
accordance with the guidance in ASC Topic 480 "Distinguishing Liabilities from
Equity." Class A common stock subject to mandatory redemption (if any) is
classified as liability instruments and are measured at fair value.
Conditionally redeemable Class A common stock (including Class A common stock
that features 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,
Class A common stock is classified as stockholders' equity. Our Class A common
stock feature certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of our
control and subject to the occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly,

Net Income (Loss) Per Share of Common Stock
Net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted-average number of common stock outstanding during the period. We have not considered the effect of the warrants sold in the Initial Public Offering and the Private Placement to purchase an aggregate of 18,100,000 of the Company's Class A common stock in the calculation of diluted income per share, since their inclusion would be anti-dilutive under the treasury stock method.
Our statements of operations include a presentation of income per share for
common stock subject to redemption in a manner
similar to the two-class method of income per share. Net income per common
stock, basic and diluted for Class A common stock are calculated by dividing the
gain on marketable securities (net), dividends and interest, held in Trust

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of
JOBS Act
On
As an "emerging growth company", we are not 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.
