Overview


We are a blank check company incorporated as a Delaware corporation and 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. While our efforts to identify a target business may span many industries and regions worldwide, we intend to focus our search for prospects within the healthcare industry in the United States. We have not selected any specific business combination target and we have not, nor has anyone on our behalf, initiated any substantive discussions, directly or indirectly, with any business combination target. We intend to effectuate our initial business combination using cash from the proceeds of our IPO and the sale of the private placement units, the proceeds of the sale of our shares in connection with our initial business combination (including pursuant to backstop agreements we may enter into), 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.

On September 22, 2020, we consummated our initial public offering (the "IPO") of 10,000,000 units (the "Units"). Each Unit consists of one share of Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share ("Class A Common Stock") and one-half of one redeemable warrant (each whole warrant, a "Warrant"), with each whole Warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one share of Class A Common Stock for $11.50 per share. The Units were sold at a price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds to us of $100,000,000. We granted the underwriters in the IPO, a 45-day option to purchase up to 1,500,000 additional Units solely to cover over-allotments, if any. Oppenheimer & Co. Inc. acted as the sole book running manager and Northland Securities, Inc. acted as the co-manager of the IPO. The securities sold in the IPO were registered under the Securities Act on registration statements on Form S-1 No. 333-240374. The SEC declared the registration statement effective on September 17, 2020.

On September 22, 2020, simultaneously with the consummation of the IPO, we completed the private sale (the "Private Placement") of an aggregate of 355,000 Units (the "Private Placement Units") to AHAC Sponsor LLC (our "Sponsor"), Oppenheimer & Co. Inc. and Northland Securities, Inc., generating gross proceeds to us of $3,550,000. Such securities were issued pursuant to the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.







                                       20




A total of $100,000,000, comprised of $98,000,000 of the proceeds from the IPO and $2,000,000 of the proceeds of the sale of the Private Placement Units, was placed in a U.S.-based trust account maintained by Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, acting as trustee.

The issuance of additional shares in connection with an initial business combination to the owners of the target or other investors:





    ?   may significantly dilute the equity interest of investors, which dilution
        would increase if the anti-dilution provisions in the Class B common stock
        resulted in the issuance of Class A shares on a greater than
        one-to-one basis upon conversion of the Class B 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 officers and directors;




    ?   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 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 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.




                                       21




As indicated in the accompanying financial statements, as of March 31, 2021, we had $513,059 in cash. Further, we expect to incur significant costs in the pursuit of our initial Business Combination. We cannot assure you that our plans to raise capital or to complete our initial Business Combination will be successful.





Proposed Business Combination



On February 17, 2021, the Company entered into a business combination agreement (the "Business Combination Agreement") by and among the Company, Hunter Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Merger Sub"), and Humacyte, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Humacyte"). The Business Combination Agreement provides, among other things, that on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, Merger Sub will merge with and into Humacyte, with Humacyte surviving as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (the "Business Combination"). Upon the closing of the Business Combination (the "Closing"), it is anticipated that the Company will change its name to "Humacyte, Inc." For additional information about the Business Combination Agreement and the ancillary documents executed or to be executed in connection therewith, see Note 1 to the "Notes to Unaudited Condensed Financial Statements" included in this Report.

Results of Operations and Known Trends or Future Events

We have neither engaged in any operations nor generated any revenues to date. Our only activities since inception have been organizational activities, those necessary to prepare for our Initial Public Offering and identifying a target company for our initial Business Combination. We do not expect to generate any operating revenues until after completion of our initial Business Combination. We generate non-operating income in the form of interest income on cash and cash equivalents held in the Trust Account. We incur expenses as a result of being a public company (for legal, financial reporting, accounting and auditing compliance), as well as expenses as we conduct due diligence on prospective Business Combination candidates.

For the three months ended March 31, 2021, we had a net loss of $9,435,532, which consists of formation and operating costs of $493,818 and investment income of $13,710 and change in fair value in warrant liabilities of $8,955,424.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of March 31, 2021, the Company had cash outside the Trust Account of $513,059 available for working capital needs. All remaining cash held in the Trust Account are generally unavailable for the Company's use, prior to an initial business combination, and is restricted for use either in a Business Combination or to redeem common stock. As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, none of the amount in the Trust Account was available to be withdrawn as described above.

Through March 31, 2021, the Company's liquidity needs were satisfied through receipt of $25,000 from the sale of the founder shares, advances from the Sponsor in an aggregate amount of $147,763 and the remaining net proceeds from the IPO and the sale of Private Placement Units.

The Company anticipates that the $513,059 outside of the Trust Account as of March 31, 2021, will be sufficient to allow the Company to operate for at least the next 12 months from the issuance of the financial statements, assuming that a Business Combination is not consummated during that time. Until consummation of its Business Combination, the Company will be using the funds not held in the Trust Account, and any additional Working Capital Loans (as defined in Note 5) from the initial stockholders, the Company's officers and directors, or their respective affiliates (which is described in Note 5), for identifying and evaluating prospective acquisition candidates, performing business due diligence on prospective target businesses, traveling to and from the offices, plants or similar locations of prospective target businesses, reviewing corporate documents and material agreements of prospective target businesses, selecting the target business to acquire and structuring, negotiating and consummating the Business Combination.





                                       22




The Company does not believe it will need to raise additional funds in order to meet the expenditures required for operating its business. However, if the Company's estimates of the costs of undertaking in-depth due diligence and negotiating business combination is less than the actual amount necessary to do so, the Company may have insufficient funds available to operate its business prior to the business combination. Moreover, the Company will need to raise additional capital through loans from its Sponsor, officers, directors, or third parties. None of the Sponsor, officers or directors are under any obligation to advance funds to, or to invest in, the Company. If the Company is unable to raise additional capital, it may be required to take additional measures to conserve liquidity, which could include, but not necessarily be limited to, curtailing operations, suspending the pursuit of its business plan, and reducing overhead expenses. The Company cannot provide any assurance that new financing will be available to it on commercially acceptable terms, if at all.





Related Party Transactions



Founder Shares


On July 20, 2020, we issued 2,875,000 shares of Class B common stock to our initial stockholder, AHAC Sponsor, LLC for $25,000, or approximately $0.01 per share. The founder shares include an aggregate of up to 375,000 shares subject to forfeiture if the over-allotment option is not exercised by the underwriters in full. The over-allotment option was not exercised by the underwriters during the 45-day option period; thus, these shares were forfeited accordingly as of November 1, 2020.

Promissory Note - Related Party

On July 1, 2020, we issued an unsecured promissory note to the sponsor, pursuant to which we may borrow up to an aggregate principal amount of $300,000 to be used for a portion of the expenses of the IPO. This loan is non-interest bearing, unsecured, and due on the earlier of (a) March 31, 2021 or (b) the date on which we complete the IPO. The loan will be repaid out of the offering proceeds not held in the Trust Account. As of March 31, 2021, the Company had $7,172 in borrowings outstanding under the promissory note.





Administrative Service Fee


We have agreed to pay an affiliate of our sponsor a monthly fee of an aggregate of $10,000 for general and administrative services including office space, utilities and secretarial and administrative support. This arrangement will terminate upon completion of a business combination or the liquidation of the Company. For the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company incurred $30,000 in administrative service fee.





Related Party Loans


In addition, in order to finance transactions costs in connection with a business combination, the sponsor, or certain of the Company's officers, directors, or their affiliates may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds as may be required ("Working Capital Loans"). If the Company completes a business combination, the Company would repay the Working Capital Loans out of the proceeds of the Trust Account released to the Company. Otherwise, the Working Capital Loans would be repaid only out of funds held outside the Trust Account. In the event that a business combination does not close, the Company may use a portion of proceeds held outside the Trust Account to repay the Working Capital Loans but no proceeds held in the Trust Account would be used to repay the Working Capital Loans. Except for the foregoing, the terms of such Working Capital Loans, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such loans. The Working Capital Loans would either be repaid upon consummation of a business combination, without interest, or, at the lender's discretion, up to $1,500,000 of such Working Capital Loans may be converted into units of the post business combination entity at a price of $10.00 per unit.





Sponsor Support Agreement



In connection with the execution of the Business Combination Agreement, AHAC Sponsor LLC ("Sponsor") and the other holders (the "Company Supporting Stockholders") of the Company's Class B common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the "Class B Common Stock") entered into a support agreement with the Company and Humacyte (the "Sponsor Support Agreement"). Under the Sponsor Support Agreement, each Company Supporting Stockholder agreed to vote, at any meeting of the stockholders of the Company and in any action by written consent of the stockholders of the Company, all of such Company Supporting Stockholder's Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock (i) in favor of (a) the Business Combination Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby and (b) the other proposals that the Company and Humacyte agreed in the Business Combination Agreement shall be submitted at such meeting for approval by the Company's stockholders together with the proposal to obtain the Company Stockholder Approval (the "Required Transaction Proposals") and (ii) against any proposal that conflicts or materially impedes or interferes with any Required Transaction Proposals or that would adversely affect or delay the Business Combination. The Sponsor Support Agreement also prohibits each Company Supporting Stockholder from, among other things and subject to certain exceptions, selling, assigning or transferring any Class A Common Stock or Class B Common Stock held by such Company Supporting Stockholder or taking any action that would have the effect of preventing or materially delaying such Company Supporting Stockholder from performing his, her or its obligations under the Sponsor Support Agreement. In addition, in the Sponsor Support Agreement, each Company Supporting Stockholder agreed to waive, and not to assert or perfect, among other things, any rights to adjustment or other anti-dilution protections with respect to the rate at which the shares of Class B Common Stock held by the Company Supporting Stockholders convert into shares of Class A Common Stock in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement.





                                       23





Commitments and Contingencies



Registration Rights


The holders of the founder shares, placement units (including securities contained therein) and units (including securities contained therein) that may be issued upon conversion of working capital loans, and any shares of Class A common stock issuable upon the exercise of the placement warrants and any shares of Class A common stock and warrants (and underlying Class A common stock) that may be issued upon conversion of the units issued as part of the working capital loans and Class A common stock issuable upon conversion of the founder shares, will be entitled to registration rights pursuant to the registration rights agreement requiring us to register such securities for resale (in the case of the founder shares, only after conversion to our Class A common stock). The holders of the majority of these securities are entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short form demands, that the Company registers such securities. In addition, the holders have certain "piggy-back" registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to the completion of an initial business combination and rights to require us to register for resale such securities pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act. The registration rights agreement does not contain liquidated damages or other cash settlement provisions resulting from delays in registering our securities. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.





Underwriting Agreement


On September 22, 2020, the underwriters were paid an underwriting discount of two percent (2.0%) of the gross proceeds of the IPO, or $2,000,000. In addition, the underwriters are entitled to a deferred underwriting fee of three and a half percent (3.5%) of the gross proceeds of the IPO upon the completion of the Company's initial business combination. The underwriters have agreed that up to 1% of the deferred underwriting fee may be re-directed to other FINRA member firms that have provided services in connection with the identification and consummation of a business combination, in the sole discretion of the Company; provided, that all such payments to other FINRA member firms may only be made if permitted under applicable law.

The Company may reduce the deferred underwriting fee by up to 50% based on stockholders redeeming their shares for their pro-rata amount of the proceeds in the Trust Account; provided, however, that (a) the underwriters' maximum deferred underwriting fee reduction based on stockholder redemptions will be 50% regardless of whether stockholder redemptions exceed 50%; and (b) any sums paid to other advisors as discussed above, will be credited against the reduction of and added back to the deferred underwriting fee payable to the underwriters; and (c) under no circumstance will the deferred underwriting fee be less than 1.75% of the gross proceeds of the IPO. As March 31, 2021, the Company accrued a deferred underwriting fee of $2,127,821.





Risks and Uncertainties


Management is continuing to evaluate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the industry and has concluded that while it is reasonably possible that the virus could have a negative effect on the 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 financial statements. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.





                                       24




Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of March 31, 2021, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as defined in Item 303(a)(4)(ii) of Regulation S-K. 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 purchased any non-financial assets.





Contractual Obligations


We do not have any long-term debt, capital lease obligations, operating lease obligations or long-term liabilities, other than the underwriters are entitled to a deferred fee of $2,127,821 in the aggregate. The deferred fee will become payable to the underwriters from the amounts held in the Trust Account solely in the event that we complete a Business Combination, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement.





Critical Accounting Policies



The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the unaudited financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Company has identified the following as its critical accounting policies:





Warrant Derivative Liability



We do not use derivative instruments to hedge exposures to cash flow, market, or foreign currency risks. We evaluate all of our financial instruments, including issued stock purchase warrants, to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives, pursuant to ASC 480 and ASC 815-15. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is re-assessed at the end of each reporting period.

We issued 5,152,500 warrants in connection with our initial public offering (5,000,000) and private placement (152,500) which are recognized as derivative liabilities in accordance with ASC 815-40. Accordingly, we recognize the warrant instruments as liabilities at fair value and adjust the instruments to fair value at each reporting period. The liabilities are subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet date until exercised, and any change in fair value is recognized in the Company's statement of operations. The initial fair value of warrants issued in connection with the initial public offering and private placement has been estimated using Monte-Carlo simulations at each measurement date.





Recent Accounting Standards



Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on our condensed financial statements.





JOBS Act


The JOBS Act contains provisions that, among other things, relax certain reporting requirements for qualifying public companies. We qualify as an "emerging growth company" 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 our initial public offering or until we are no longer an "emerging growth company," whichever is earlier.
