Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

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

Overview

We are a blank check company incorporated in Delaware and formed for the purpose of effecting an initial business combination with one or more target businesses. We have not identified any specific target business and we have not, nor has anyone on our behalf, initiated any substantive discussions, directly or indirectly, with any target business regarding an initial business combination with our company. We intend to effectuate our initial business combination using cash from the proceeds of the IPO and the private placement of the Private Placement Warrants, our capital stock, debt or a combination of cash, stock and debt.

The issuance of additional shares of our stock in a business combination:



    •   may subordinate the rights of holders of our common stock if preferred
        stock is issued with rights senior to those afforded our common stock;


    •   may subordinate the rights of holders of our common stock if preferred
        stock is issued with rights senior to those afforded our common stock;


    •   could cause a change in control if a substantial number of shares of our
        common stock is 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 management team;


    •   may have the effect of delaying or preventing a change of control of us by
        diluting the stock ownership or voting rights of a person seeking to
        obtain control of us; and


    •   may adversely affect prevailing market prices for our common stock and/or
        warrants.

Similarly, if we issue debt securities, 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 security is payable on demand;


    •   our inability to obtain necessary additional financing if the debt
        security contains covenants;


    •   restricting our ability to obtain such financing while the debt security
        is outstanding;


                                       16

  • our inability to pay dividends on our 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
        common stock if declared, our ability to pay expenses, make capital
        expenditures and acquisitions, and fund 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;


    •   increased vulnerability to adverse changes in general economic, industry
        and competitive conditions and adverse changes in government regulation;


    •   limitations on our ability to borrow additional amounts for expenses,
        capital expenditures, acquisitions, debt service requirements, and
        execution of our strategy; and


    •   other purposes and other disadvantages compared to our competitors who
        have less debt.

On January 14, 2021, we completed our IPO of 24,000,000 units. Each Unit consists of one share of Common Stock, and one-half of one redeemable Warrant, each whole Warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one share of Common Stock at an exercise price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment, pursuant to the Company's registration statements on Form S-1 (File Nos. 333-251641 and 333-252021). The Units were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $240,000,000.

On January 14, 2021, simultaneously with the consummation of the IPO, we completed a private placement of an aggregate of 6,550,000 Private Placement Warrants at a price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant, generating gross proceeds of $6,550,000.

On January 15, 2021, the underwriters exercised their over-allotment option in full, and on January 19, 2021, the underwriters purchased an additional 3,600,000 Units at an offering price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $36,000,000. Simultaneously with the closing of the sale of additional Units, the Company sold an additional 720,000 Private Placement Warrants at a price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant, generating gross proceeds of $720,000. As of January 19, 2021, an aggregate amount of $276,000,000 of the net proceeds from the IPO (including the additional 3,600,000 Units and additional 720,000 Private Placement Warrants) were deposited in the Company's trust account established in connection with the IPO.

We paid a total of $5,520,000 in underwriting discounts and commissions and $636,086 for other costs and expenses related to the IPO.

Results of Operations

Our entire activity since inception up to June 30, 2021 relates to our formation, the Initial Public Offering and, since the closing of the Initial Public Offering, a search for a Business Combination candidate. We will not be generating any operating revenues until the closing and completion of our initial Business Combination, at the earliest.

For the three months ended June 30, 2021, we had net loss of $119,589, which consisted of $135,127 in formation and operating costs, offset by $15,538 in interest earned on marketable securities held in the Trust Account.

For the six months ended June 30, 2021, we had net loss of $169,543, which consisted of $225,340 in formation and operating costs, offset by $55,797 in interest earned on marketable securities held in the Trust Account.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of June 30, 2021, we had approximately $0.7 million in our operating bank account, and working capital of approximately $0.8 million.

Prior to the completion of the Initial Public Offering, our liquidity needs had been satisfied through a capital contribution from the Sponsor of $25,000, to cover certain offering costs, for the Founder Shares, and the loan under an unsecured promissory note from the Sponsor of $150,000. Subsequent to the consummation of the Initial Public Offering and Private Placement, our liquidity needs have been satisfied through the proceeds from the consummation of the Private Placement not held in the Trust Account.



                                       17

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In addition, in order to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, our Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor, or certain of our officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, provide us Working Capital Loans.

On August 6, 2021, the Company issued an unsecured promissory note to the Sponsor in connection with a Working Capital Loan made by the Sponsor to the Company pursuant to which the Company may borrow up to $300,000 in the aggregate. The note is non-interest bearing and payable on the earlier to occur of (i) January 14, 2023 or (ii) the effective date of a Business Combination. Any amounts outstanding under the note are convertible into warrants, at a price of $1.00 per warrant at the option of the Sponsor, the terms of which shall be identical to the Private Placement Warrants. As of the date hereof, the Company borrowed $150,000 under the note.

Based on the foregoing, management believes that we will have sufficient working capital and borrowing capacity 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.

Off-Balance Sheet Financing Arrangements

As of June 30, 2021, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements. We have no obligations, assets or liabilities which would be considered off-balance sheet arrangements. We do not participate in transactions that create relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, often referred to as variable interest entities, which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements. We have not entered into any off-balance sheet financing arrangements, established any special purpose entities, guaranteed any debt or commitments of other entities, or entered into any non-financial assets.

Contractual Obligations

At June 30, 2021, we did not have any long-term debt, capital lease obligations, operating lease obligations or long-term liabilities.

JOBS Act

On April 5, 2012, the JOBS Act was signed into law. The JOBS Act contains provisions that, among other things, relax certain reporting requirements for qualifying public companies. We will qualify as an "emerging growth company" and under the JOBS Act will be allowed to comply with new or revised accounting pronouncements based on the effective date for private (not publicly traded) companies. We are electing to delay the adoption of new or revised accounting standards, and as a result, we may not comply with new or revised accounting standards on the relevant dates on which adoption of such standards is required for non-emerging growth companies. As a result, our financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with new or revised accounting pronouncements as of public company effective dates.

Additionally, we are in the process of evaluating the benefits of relying on the other reduced reporting requirements provided by the JOBS Act. Subject to certain conditions set forth in the JOBS Act, if, as an "emerging growth company", we choose to rely on such exemptions we may not be required to, among other things, (i) provide an 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 the IPO or until we are no longer an "emerging growth company," whichever is earlier.

Critical Accounting Policies

Management's discussion and analysis of our results of operations and liquidity and capital resources are based on our unaudited condensed financial information. We describe our significant accounting policies in Note 2 - Significant Accounting Policies, of the Notes to Financial Statements included in this report. Our unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Certain of our accounting policies require that management apply significant judgments in defining the appropriate assumptions integral to financial estimates. On an ongoing basis, management reviews the accounting policies, assumptions, estimates and judgments to ensure that our financial statements are presented fairly and in accordance with U.S.



                                       18

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

GAAP. Judgments are based on historical experience, terms of existing contracts, industry trends and information available from outside sources, as appropriate. However, by their nature, judgments are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty, and, therefore, actual results could differ from our estimates.

We have identified the following as our critical accounting policies:

Common Stock Subject to Possible Redemption

The Company accounts for its common stock subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in ASC Topic 480 "Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity." Common stock subject to mandatory redemption (if any) is classified as a liability instrument and is measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable common stock (including common stock that feature redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the Company's control) is classified as temporary equity. At all other times, common stock is classified as stockholders' equity. The Company's common stock feature certain redemption rights that is considered to be outside of the Company's control and subject to the occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, common stock subject to possible redemption is presented at redemption value as temporary equity, outside of the stockholders' equity section of the Company's balance sheets.

Net Income (Loss) Per Common Share

Net income (loss) per common stock is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common share outstanding for each of the periods. The warrants are exercisable to purchase 21,070,000 shares of common stock in the aggregate.
