Overview


We are a blank check company incorporated as a Delaware corporation on November 18, 2015 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. We intend to effectuate our initial Business Combination using cash from the proceeds of our Public Offering and the Private Placement that occurred simultaneously with the consummation of the Public Offering, the forward purchase contracts, our capital stock, debt or a combination of cash, stock and debt.





                                       40




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

? may significantly dilute the equity interest of investors in the Public


   Offering;



? 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 units, 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;

? 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; and

? 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.



As indicated in the accompanying financial statements, at December 31, 2019, we had $78,697 in cash outside of the Trust Account. We expect to continue to incur significant costs in the pursuit of our acquisition plans. We cannot assure you that our plans to complete our initial Business Combination will be successful.





Results of Operations


Our entire activity through March 15, 2018, consisted of formation and preparation for the Public Offering. Since the Public Offering, our activity has been limited to the evaluation of business combination candidates, including International General Insurance Holdings Ltd., and we have not and will not be generating any operating revenues until the closing of our initial business combination. We generate non-operating income in the form of interest on marketable securities held in the trust account. We are incurring expenses as a result of being a public company (for legal, financial reporting, accounting and auditing compliance), as well as for due diligence and transaction expenses.





                                       41




For the year ended December 31, 2019, we had net income of $1,937,205, which consists of operating costs of $1,361,167 and a provision for income taxes of $651,500, offset by interest income of $3,854,255, and an unrealized gain on marketable securities held in our Trust Account of $95,617.

For the year ended December 31, 2018, we had net income of $1,581,542, which consists of operating costs of $668,087 and a provision for income taxes of $420,000, offset by interest income of $2,687,003, and an unrealized loss on marketable securities held in our Trust Account of $17,374.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Until the consummation of the Public Offering, our only sources of liquidity were an initial purchase of Founder Shares for $25,000 by the Sponsor, and a total of $319,540 of loans and advances by the Sponsor.

On March 20, 2018, we consummated our Public Offering in which we sold 15,000,000 Units at a price of $10.00 per Unit generating gross proceeds of $150,000,000 before underwriting fees and expenses. The Sponsor purchased 4,500,000 Placement Warrants at a price of $1.00 per Placement Warrant in a Private Placement that occurred simultaneously with the Public Offering. The Sponsor provided a loan in the amount of $1,500,000 that occurred simultaneously with the Public Offering.

On March 28, 2018, in connection with the underwriters' exercise of their over-allotment option in full, we consummated the sale of an additional 2,250,000 Units at a price of $10.00 per Unit, and the Company received a loan from the Sponsor in the amount of $225,000.

In connection with the Public Offering, we incurred offering costs of $10,937,331 (including an underwriting fee of $3,000,000 and deferred underwriting commissions of $7,350,000). Other incurred offering costs consisted principally of preparation fees related to the Public Offering. A total of $174,225,000 of the net proceeds from the Public Offering, the Private Placement, and the Sponsor Loan were deposited in the Trust Account established for the benefit of our public stockholders.

As of December 31, 2019, we have available to us $78,697 of cash on our balance sheet. We will use these funds primarily to evaluate target businesses, perform business, legal, and accounting due diligence on prospective target businesses, travel to and from the offices, plants or similar locations of prospective target businesses or their representatives or owners, review corporate documents and material agreements of prospective target businesses, and structure, negotiate and complete a business combination. As of December 31, 2019, we incurred $521,564 of expenses related to the proposed Business Combination. As of December 31, 2019, we also had $5,138,541 in interest income available from our investments in our Trust Account to pay for our tax obligations. During the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company withdrew $902,848 to pay its tax obligations.

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 (other than the Sponsor's commitment described below), loan us funds as may be required. If we complete our initial Business Combination, we would repay such loaned amounts (including accrued interest, if any). In the event that our initial Business Combination does not close, we may use a portion of the working capital held outside the Trust Account to repay such loaned amounts but no proceeds from our Trust Account would be used for such repayment. Up to $2,000,000 of such loans (which may include the Sponsor Loan) may be convertible into warrants at a price of $1.00 per warrant at the option of the lender. The Sponsor Loan warrants would be identical to the Placement Warrants and would be identical to the public warrants, except that they would not be redeemable by us and would be exercisable on a cashless basis. In addition, our Sponsor has committed to provide us with up to an aggregate of $1,000,000 in loans to fund our working capital requirements. In August 2019, we issued an unsecured promissory note in the amount of $1,000,000 to our Sponsor. As of December 31, 2019, we borrowed $500,000 under such note for working capital purposes. The note bears no interest and is repayable in full upon the earlier of consummation of the Company's initial business combination and its winding up. The note may be converted into Warrants at a conversion price of $1.00 per Warrant at the Sponsor's discretion. However, the lender is no longer entitled to conversion rights in the event the loan is repaid in cash prior to conversion.

We expect that we have sufficient resources subsequent to our Public Offering to fund our operations until March 20, 2020, our mandatory liquidation date. We do not believe we will need to raise additional funds (other than the Sponsor Loan commitment discussed above) prior to our initial business combination in order to meet the expenditures required for operating our business. However, if our estimates of the costs of identifying a target business, undertaking in-depth due diligence and negotiating an initial Business Combination are less than the actual amount necessary to do so, we may have insufficient funds available to operate our business prior to our business combination. Moreover, we may need to obtain additional financing to complete our business combination if our forward purchase agreements are not consummated or because we become obligated to redeem a significant number of our public shares upon completion of our business combination, in which case we may issue additional equity securities or incur debt in connection with such business combination. Subject to compliance with applicable securities laws, we would only complete such financing simultaneously with the completion of our business combination. If we are unable to complete our initial Business Combination because we do not have sufficient funds available to us, we will be forced to cease operations and liquidate the Trust Account. In addition, following our initial business combination, if cash on hand is insufficient, we may need to obtain additional financing in order to meet our obligations.

Off-Balance Sheet Financing 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


Commencing March 2018, the Company agreed to pay its Chief Investment Officer $12,500 per month until the earlier of liquidation or the consummation of an initial Business Combination.

In March 2018, the Company entered into an Administrative Services Agreement pursuant to which it pays its Sponsor, an affiliate of our Executive Chairman and our Chief Executive Officer, a total of $10,000 per month for office space, utilities and secretarial support. Upon completion of our initial Business Combination or liquidation, the Company will cease paying these monthly fees.

In March 2018, our Sponsor extended a loan to the Company in the amount of $1,725,000, inclusive of $225,000 as a result of the exercise of the underwriter's over-allotment option, which is non-interest bearing and which will become due upon the completion of a Business Combination.

In August 2019, we issued an unsecured promissory note in the amount of $1,000,000 to the Sponsor and we borrowed $500,000 under such note for working capital purposes. The note bears no interest and is repayable in full upon the earlier of consummation of the Company's initial business combination and its winding up. The note shall be payable without interest upon the consummation of a Business Combination or, at the holder's discretion, the note may be converted into Warrants at a conversion price of $1.00 per Warrant. Each Warrant would be identical to the Placement Warrants discussed above.

At December 31, 2019 and 2018, we did not have any capital lease obligations or operating lease obligations.

The Underwriter was paid a cash underwriting fee of 2% of gross proceeds of the Public Offering, excluding any amounts raised pursuant to the overallotment option, or $3,000,000. In addition, the Underwriter is entitled to aggregate deferred underwriting commissions of $7,350,000 consisting of (i) 4% of the gross proceeds of the Public Offering, excluding any amounts raised pursuant to the overallotment option, and (ii) 6% of the gross proceeds of the Units sold in the Public Offering pursuant to the overallotment option. The deferred underwriting commissions will become payable to the Underwriter from the amounts held in the Trust Account solely in the event that the Company completes an initial Business Combination, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement. Simultaneously with the execution of the Business Combination Agreement on October 10, 2019, Tiberius and Cantor Fitzgerald & Co. ("Cantor") entered into an amendment (the "Underwriting Agreement Amendment") to the Underwriting Agreement, dated as March 15, 2018 (the "Underwriting Agreement"), by and between Tiberius, Cantor and the other underwriters named therein. Pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement Amendment, Cantor agreed to accept payment of the deferred underwriting commission payable to Cantor under Section 1.3 of the Underwriting Agreement in Pubco common shares (the "Deferred Commission Shares"), valued at $10.20 per Pubco common share, if and solely to the extent that Tiberius would otherwise not meet the Minimum Cash Condition (treating such issuance of Deferred Commission Shares to Cantor as an equity financing for purposes thereof) after giving effect to any Backstop Subscription Agreements. The payment in Deferred Commission Shares under the Underwriting Agreement Amendment is conditioned on the concurrent Closing and other customary closing conditions consistent with the conditions under the Subscription Agreements. Cantor was also given registration rights with respect to any Deferred Commission Shares pursuant to which Pubco, as the successor to Tiberius will be required to file a resale registration statement for the Deferred Commission Shares issued to Cantor within 30 days after the Closing and use its commercially reasonable efforts to have the registration statement declared effective as soon as practicable after the filing thereof. The proceeds from the issuance of the Deferred Commission Shares instead of the cash payment required under the Underwriting Agreement will be used to fund a portion of the cash consideration for the Business Combination, the transaction expenses and other liabilities of Tiberius and otherwise provide working capital and funds for corporate purposes to Pubco after the Closing.

Pursuant to a registration rights agreement entered into on March 15, 2018, the holders of the Founder Shares, holders of the private placement warrants and holders of any warrants issued to the sponsor on conversion of the Sponsor's loan at its discretion (and any shares of Tiberius Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of such warrants, respectively) are entitled to registration rights. The Sponsor, holders of the private placement warrants and holders of any warrants issued to the Sponsor on conversion of the Sponsor's loan at its discretion (and any shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of such warrants, respectively) are entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short form registration demands, that Tiberius register such securities for sale under the Securities Act. In addition, these holders have ''piggy-back'' registration rights to include their securities in other registration statements filed by Tiberius. Tiberius will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements. The registration rights agreement does not provide for any cash penalties or additional penalties associated with any delays in registering the securities.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the Company's management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and income and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. The Company has identified the following as its 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 Accounting Standards Codification ("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 features redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of 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 features certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company's control and subject to 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 sheet.





Loss Per Common Share



Basic loss per common share is computed by dividing net income applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Consistent with ASC 480, common stock subject to possible redemption, as well as their pro rata share of undistributed trust earnings consistent with the two-class method, have been excluded from the calculation of loss per common share for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018. Such shares, if redeemed, only participate in their pro rata share of trust earnings. Diluted loss per share includes the incremental number of shares of common stock to be issued to settle warrants, as calculated using the treasury method. For the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, the Company did not have any dilutive warrants, securities or other contracts that could potentially, be exercised or converted into common stock, since the exercise of the warrants is contingent on the occurrence of future events. As a result, diluted loss per common share is the same as basic loss per common share for all periods presented.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company's financial statements.
