Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
All statements other than statements of historical fact included in this Report
including, without limitation, statements under this "Item 2. Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations"
regarding our financial position, business strategy and the plans and objectives
of management for future operations, are forward- looking statements. When used
in this Report, words such as "anticipate," "believe," "estimate," "expect,"
"intend" and similar expressions, as they relate to us or our management,
identify forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements are based
on the beliefs of management, as well as assumptions made by, and information
currently available to, the Company's management. Actual results could differ
materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements as a result
of certain factors detailed in our filings with the SEC. All subsequent written
or oral forward-looking statements attributable to us or persons acting on our
behalf are qualified in their entirety by this paragraph.
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of
operations should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed financial
statements and the notes thereto contained elsewhere in this report. Certain
information contained in the discussion and analysis set forth below includes
forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties.
Overview
We are a blank check company incorporated as a Cayman Islands exempted company
and formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, amalgamation, share exchange,
asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business
combination with one or more businesses. Our efforts to identify a prospective
target business will not be limited to a particular industry or geographic
location. However, our Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of
Incorporation provides that we shall not undertake our initial Business
Combination with any entity that is based in, located in or with its principal
business operations in China (including Hong Kong and Macau). We intend to
effectuate our initial Business Combination using cash from the proceeds of our
IPO and the sale of the private units, our shares, debt or a combination of
cash, shares and debt.
Our sponsor is Keyarch Global Sponsor Limited, a Cayman Islands limited
liability company. We are an emerging growth company and, as such, we are
subject to all of the risks associated with emerging growth companies.
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
income earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released
to us to pay our franchise and income taxes, divided by the number of then
outstanding Public Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish Public
Shareholders' rights as shareholders (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 the remaining shareholders and the board of directors, dissolve and
liquidate, subject in each case to our obligations under Cayman Islands law to
provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law.
Results of Operations
We have neither engaged in any operations nor generated any revenues to date.
Our only activities from April 23, 2021 (date of inception) to June 30, 2022
were organizational activities and those necessary to consummate the IPO,
described below. Following our IPO, we do not expect to generate any operating
revenues until after the completion of our Business Combination. We expect to
generate non-operating income in the form of interest income on cash and
marketable securities held after the IPO. We expect to incur increased expenses
as a result of being a public company (for legal, financial reporting,
accounting and auditing compliance), as well as for due diligence expenses.

Table of Contents
For the three months ended June 30, 2022, we had a net profit of $41,364, which
consists of loss of $123,798 derived from general and administrative expenses
offset by income earned on investment held in Trust Account of $164,964 and bank
interest income of $198.
For the six months ended June 30, 2022, we had a net loss of $318,793, which
consists of loss of $492,883 derived from general and administrative expenses
offset by income earned on investment held in Trust Account of $173,892 and bank
interest income of $198.
For the period from April 23, 2021 (inception) through June 30, 2021, we had a
net loss of $1,201, which consists of loss of $1,201 derived from general and
administrative expenses.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
On January 27, 2022, we consummated our IPO of 10,000,000 units, at $10.00 per
Unit, generating gross proceeds of $100,000,000. Simultaneously with the closing
of our IPO, we consummated the sale of 500,000 Private Placement Units at a
price of $10.00 per Private Placement Unit in a Private Placement to the Sponsor
and EarlyBirdCapital, generating total gross proceeds of $5,000,000.
On February 8, 2022, the underwriters in our IPO purchased an additional
1,500,000 Units to exercise its over-allotment option in full at a purchase
price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $15,000,000.
Simultaneously with the closing of the fully exercise of the over-allotment
option, we completed the private sale of an aggregate of 45,000 Private
Placement Units to the Sponsor and EarlyBirdCapital, at a purchase price of
$10.00 per Private Placement Unit, generating gross proceeds of $450,000.
Transaction costs amounted to $3,471,734 consisting of $2,300,000 of
underwriting discount and $1,171,734 of other offering costs. During the quarter
ended June 30, 2022, the Company received discount amounting to $131,420 on
outstanding offering cost included within accounts payable and accrued expenses.
This has been treated as reversal of offering cost adjusted through additional
paid-in capital considering the related offering cost charged against additional
paid-in capital at the time of IPO.
Following the closing of our IPO and the sale of over-allotment units, an
aggregate of $116,150,000 ($10.00 per Unit) from the net proceeds and the sale
of the Private Placement Units was held in a Trust Account.
In order to fund working capital deficiencies or finance transaction costs in
connection with an intended initial Business Combination, our Sponsor or an
affiliate of our Sponsor or certain of our officers and directors may, but are
not obligated to, loan us funds as may be required. Any such loans would be on
an interest-free basis and would be repaid only from funds held outside the
trust account or from funds released to us upon completion of our initial
Business Combination. Up to $1,500,000 of such loans may be convertible into
units at a price of $10.00 per unit, at the option of the lender. These units
would be identical to the private units issued to our Sponsor. We do not expect
to seek loans from parties other than our Sponsor or an affiliate of our Sponsor
as we do not believe third parties will be willing to loan such funds and
provide a waiver against any and all rights to seek access to funds in our trust
account.
As of June 30, 2022, we had marketable securities held in the Trust Account of
$116,323,892 consisting of securities held in a treasury trust fund that invests
in United States government treasury bills, bonds or notes with a maturity of
180 days or less. Income earned on the balance in the Trust Account may be used
by us to pay taxes. Through June 30, 2022, we did not withdraw any income earned
on the Trust Account to pay our taxes. We intend to use substantially all of the
funds held in the Trust Account, to acquire a target business and to pay our
expenses relating thereto. To the extent that our capital stock is used in whole
or in part as consideration to effect a Business Combination, the remaining
funds held in the Trust Account will be used as working capital to finance the
operations of the target business. Such working capital funds could be used in a
variety of ways including continuing or expanding the target business'
operations, for strategic acquisitions and for marketing, research and
development of existing or new products. Such funds could also be used to repay
any operating expenses or finders' fees which we had incurred prior to the
completion of our Business Combination if the funds available to us outside of
the Trust Account were insufficient to cover such expenses.

Table of Contents
As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had cash of $356,891 and
$9,168, respectively and working capital/(deficit) of $465,136 and ($918,810),
respectively. The Company's liquidity needs prior to the consummation of the IPO
had been satisfied through proceeds from notes payable and advances from related
party and from the issuance of ordinary shares. Subsequent to the consummation
of the IPO, the Company expects that it will need additional capital to satisfy
its liquidity needs beyond the net proceeds from the consummation of the IPO and
the proceeds held outside of the Trust Account for paying existing accounts
payable, identifying and evaluating prospective 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 Initial Business Combination.
Although certain of the Company's initial shareholders, officers and directors
or their affiliates have committed to loan the Company funds from time to time
or at any time, in whatever amount they deem reasonable in their sole
discretion, there is no guarantee that the Company will receive such funds.
Accordingly, the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statement has been
prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP, which contemplates continuation of the
Company as a going concern and the realization of assets and the satisfaction of
liabilities in the normal course of business. The financial statement does not
include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Further, we have incurred and expect to continue to incur significant costs in
pursuit of our financing and acquisition plans. Management plans to address this
uncertainty during period leading up to the Initial Business Combination. The
Company cannot provide any assurance that its plans to raise capital or to
consummate an Initial Business Combination will be successful. Based on the
foregoing, management believes that the Company will not have sufficient working
capital and borrowing capacity to meet its needs through the earlier of the
consummation of the Initial Business Combination or one year from this filing.
These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about our ability to
continue as a going concern.
Off-Balance Sheet Financing Arrangements
We have no obligations, assets or liabilities, which would be considered
off-balance sheet arrangements as of June 30, 2022. 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.
