Overview

We are a blank check company incorporated as a Delaware corporation on February 16, 2021. We were incorporated for the purpose of effecting a Business Combination.

Our Sponsor is ShiftPixy Investments, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of ShiftPixy, Inc.

The registration statement for our IPO was declared effective on October 19, 2021 (the "Effective Date"). On October 22, 2021, we consummated our IPO of 11,500,000 units (the "Units" and, with respect to the common stock included in the Units being offered, the "Public Shares") at $10.00 per Unit (which included the full exercise of the underwriters' over-allotment option), which is discussed in Note 3 (the "IPO") and the sale of 4,639,102 warrants (the "Private Placement Warrants") at a price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant in a private placement to the Sponsor that closed simultaneously with the IPO.

Transaction costs amounted to $11,381,640 consisting of costs of $1,896,783 including $1,150,000 of underwriting commissions, and $746,783 of other offering costs and $9,484,857 of non-cash costs representing excess fair value attributable to the representative shares transferred in April, 2021 to the underwriter of our IPO, AGP.

Following the closing of our IPO on October 22, 2021, $116,725,000 ($10.15 per Unit) from the net proceeds sold in the IPO, including the proceeds of the sale of the Private Placement Warrants, was deposited in a Trust Account ("Trust Account") that has been invested only in U.S. government treasury obligations with a maturity of 185 days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act, which invest only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations. Except with respect to interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account that may be released to pay our tax obligations and up to $100,000 of interest that may be used for the dissolution expenses, the proceeds from the IPO and the sale of the Placement Warrants held in the Trust Account will not be released from the Trust Account until the earliest to occur of: (1) the completion of the initial Business Combination, (2) the redemption of any Public Shares properly submitted in connection with a stockholder vote to amend the amended and restated certificate of incorporation (i) to modify the substance or timing of our obligation to allow redemption in connection with the initial Business Combination or certain amendments to our charter prior thereto or to redeem 100% of the Public Shares if we do not complete our initial Business Combination within 12 months from the closing of the IPO or (ii) with respect to any other provision relating to stockholder's rights or pre-Business Combination activity, and (3) the redemption of the Public Shares if we are unable to complete our initial Business Combination within 12 months from the closing of the IPO, subject to applicable law. The proceeds deposited in the Trust Account could become subject to the claims of our creditors, if any, which could have priority over the claims of the public stockholders.

If we have not completed a Business Combination within 12 months from the closing of our IPO, or October 22, 2022, 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 us to pay our 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 our remaining stockholders and our board of directors, dissolve and liquidate, subject in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) above to our obligations under Delaware law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. There will be no redemption rights or liquidating distributions with respect to our warrants, which will expire worthless if we fail to complete our initial business combination within the 12-month time period.

Results of Operations

All of our activity from February 16, 2021 (inception) through October 19, 2021, was in preparation for an IPO, and since our IPO, our activity has been limited to the search for a prospective initial Business Combination. We will not generate any operating revenues until the closing and completion of our initial Business Combination.

For the three months ended June 30 2022, we had a net loss of $1,147,240, which consisted of formation costs of $1,221,344, offset by interest income and unrealized gains on cash and marketable securities held in Trust Account of $74,104.

For the six months ended June 30 2022, we had a net loss of $2,485,970, which consisted of formation costs of $2,564,136, offset by interest income and unrealized gains on cash and marketable securities held in Trust Account of $78,166.

For the three months ended June 30, 2021, we had a net loss of $5,849, which consisted solely of formation costs.

For the period from February 16, 2021 (inception) through June 30, 2021, we had a net loss of $6,214, which consisted solely of formation costs.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of June 30, 2022, we had $2,813 in cash and a working capital deficit of $2,205,849.

Our liquidity needs up to June 30, 2022 have been satisfied through a payment from our Sponsor of $25,000 for the Founder Shares, the loan under an unsecured promissory note from our Sponsor of up to $500,000, and the net proceeds from the consummation of the IPO, the Private Placement Warrants held outside of the Trust Account located in the United States at J.P. Morgan Chase Bank, N.A. and a working capital loan from our Sponsor as disclosed in Note 5 ("Related Party Transactions"). As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, there was $0 and $150,000 of unsecured promissory notes outstanding, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and for the period from February 16, 2021 (inception) through June 30, 2021, we received $0 and $75,000 of proceeds from issuance of promissory note, respectively. As of June 30, 2022, the promissory note has been paid in full. Furthermore, as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we had $195,000 and $0 loans outstanding under the working capital loan, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and for the period from February 16, 2021 (inception) through June 30, 2021, we received $195,000 and $0 of proceeds from issuance of working capital loan, respectively.

As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we had cash in the Trust Account of approximately $116.8 million. We intend to use substantially all of the funds held in the Trust Account, including any amounts representing interest earned on the Trust Account (less deferred underwriting commissions) to complete our initial Business Combination. We may withdraw interest to pay taxes. To the extent that our capital stock or debt is used, in whole or in part, as consideration to complete its initial Business Combination, the remaining proceeds held in the Trust Account will be used as working capital to finance the operations of the target business or businesses, make other acquisitions and pursue our growth strategies.

Until the consummation of a Business Combination, we will be using the funds not held in the Trust Account for identifying and evaluating prospective acquisition candidates, performing due diligence on prospective target businesses, paying for travel expenditures,



                                       20

selecting the target business to acquire, and structuring, negotiating and consummating the Business Combination. We will need to raise additional capital through loans or additional investments from our Sponsor, stockholders, officers, directors, or third parties. Our Sponsor, officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan us funds from time to time or at any time, in whatever amount they deem reasonable in their sole discretion, to meet our working capital needs. Accordingly, we may not be able to obtain additional financing. If we are unable to raise additional capital, we 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 a potential transaction, and reducing overhead expenses.

Going Concern

We cannot provide any assurance that new financing along the lines detailed above will be available to us on commercially acceptable terms, if at all. Further, we have until October 22, 2022 to consummate a Business Combination, but we cannot provide assurance that we will be able to consummate a Business Combination by that date. If a Business Combination is not consummated by the required date, there will be a mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution. In connection with the our assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with the authoritative guidance in Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2014-15, "Disclosure of Uncertainties About an Entity's Ability to Continue as a Going Concern", management has determined that the capital and liquidity shortage and the uncertainty surrounding obtaining new financing, along with the possibility of mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution should we be unable to complete a business combination, raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. No adjustments have been made to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities should we be required to liquidate after October 22, 2022, nor do these unaudited condensed financial statements include any adjustments relating to the recovery of the recorded assets or the classification of the liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern.

Commitments and Contractual Obligations

Registration Rights

The holders of the Founder Shares, Private Placement Warrants (including the underlying shares of common stock) and warrants (including the underlying shares of common stock) that may be issued upon conversion of Working Capital Loans, are entitled to registration rights pursuant to a registration rights agreement signed as of the effective date of the IPO, requiring us to register such securities for resale (in the case of the Founder Shares, only after conversion to common stock). The holders of the majority of these securities are entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short form demands, that we register such securities. In addition, the holders have certain "piggy-back" registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to our completion of the 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. We will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.

Underwriting Agreement

We granted the underwriters a 45-day option to purchase up to 1,500,000 additional Units to cover any over-allotments, if any, at the IPO price less the underwriting discounts and commissions. The underwriters exercised the full over-allotment at the consummation of the IPO on October 22, 2021, which was the date of the IPO.

The underwriters earned an underwriting discount of one percent (1%) of the gross proceeds of the IPO, or $1,150,000, which was paid in cash at closing of the offering. In addition, AGP purchased 750,000 Representative Founder Shares, of which 97,826 were subject to forfeiture if the over-allotment option was not exercised, at a purchase price of $9,639. Due to the underwriters' full exercise of their over-allotment option on October 22, 2021, these 97,826 Representative Founder Shares are no longer subject to forfeiture.

Business Combination Marketing Agreement

We engaged AGP as an advisor in connection with our initial Business Combination to assist us in structuring and negotiating a definitive purchase agreement with respect to an initial Business Combination, holding meetings with our stockholders to discuss the potential Business Combination and the target businesses' attributes, introduce us to potential investors that are interested in purchasing our



                                       21

  Table of Contents

securities in connection with our initial Business Combination, assist us in obtaining stockholder approval for the Business Combination, and assist us with press releases and public filings in connection with the initial Business Combination. We will pay AGP a cash fee for such services upon the consummation of our initial Business Combination in an amount equal to 3% of the gross proceeds of our IPO, exclusive of any applicable finders' fees which might become payable. If the Business Combination is not consummated for any reason, no fee shall be due or payable to AGP.

Representative Founder Shares

The representative purchased an aggregate of 750,000 Representative Founder Shares, of which 97,826 were subject to forfeiture if the over-allotment option was not exercised, at a purchase price of $9,639. The underwriters' over-allotment option was exercised in full on October 22, 2021 and thus no Representative Founder Shares are subject to forfeiture. Our Founder Shares are subject to transfer restrictions pursuant to lock-up provisions in a letter agreement with us entered into by the Representative, the Sponsor, and officers and directors. In addition, the holders of the Representative Founder Shares have agreed (i) to waive their redemption rights (or right to participate in any tender offer) with respect to such shares in connection with the completion of our initial business combination and (ii) to waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to such shares if we fail to complete our initial business combination within 12 months from the closing of our IPO. The Representative Founder Shares have been deemed compensation by FINRA and are therefore subject to a lock-up until October 14, 2022 pursuant to Rule 5110(e)(1) of the FINRA Manual.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

This management's discussion and analysis of our financial condition and result of operations is based on our unaudited condensed financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these unaudited condensed financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, and expenses and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities in our unaudited condensed financial statements. We will evaluate our estimates and judgments, including those related to fair value of financial instruments and accrued expenses. We will 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 believe that the application of the following accounting policies, each of which require significant judgments and estimates on the part of management, are the most critical to aid in fully understanding and evaluating our reported financial results. Our significant accounting policies are more fully described in Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, to our unaudited condensed financial statements appearing elsewhere in this Form 10-Q.

Offering Costs Associated with Initial Public Offering

We comply with the requirements of ASC 340-10-S99-1 and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 5A-"Expenses of Offering". Offering costs consist of legal, accounting, underwriting and other costs incurred through the balance sheet date that are related to the IPO. Offering costs amounted to $11,381,640 and were charged to temporary equity upon the completion of the IPO.

Common Stock Subject to Possible Redemption

We account for our shares of common stock subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in ASC Topic 480 "Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity." Shares of common stock subject to mandatory redemption (if any) are classified as a liability instrument and are measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable shares of common stock (including 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 our control) are classified as temporary equity. At all other times, shares of common stock are classified as stockholders' equity (deficit). Our shares of common stock sold in the IPO feature certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of our control and subject to the occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, 11,500,000 shares of common stock subject to possible redemption are presented at redemption value as temporary equity, outside of the stockholders' equity (deficit) section of our condensed balance sheets.

Net Loss Per Common Stock

Net loss per share of common stock is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for each of the periods. The calculation of diluted loss per share does not consider the effect of the 16,139,102 warrants issued in connection with the IPO and Private Placement since the exercise of the warrants are contingent upon the occurrence of future events and the inclusion of such warrants would be anti-dilutive.

Recent Accounting Standards

We do not believe that there are any recently issued, but not effective, accounting standards, which, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on our unaudited 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 unaudited 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 IPO or until we are no longer an "emerging growth company," whichever is earlier.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.
