Overview We are a blank check company incorporated onDecember 4, 2020 as aDelaware 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 or entities ("Business Combination"). We intend to effectuate our Business Combination using cash from the proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants (as defined below), our shares, debt or a combination of cash, equity and debt. We are an emerging growth company and, as such, we are subject to all of the risks associated with emerging growth companies. Our Sponsor isUSHG Investments, LLC , aDelaware limited liability company. The registration statement for the Initial Public Offering was declared effective onFebruary 24, 2021 . OnMarch 1, 2021 , we consummated the Initial Public Offering of 28,750,000 units ("Units" and, with respect to the Class A common stock included in the units being offered, the "public shares"), including 3,750,000 over-allotment Units, at$10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of$287.5 million , and incurring offering costs of approximately$784,282 , inclusive of approximately$15.8 million in deferred underwriting commissions. Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, we consummated the private placement (the "Private Placement") of 1,333,333 warrants (each, a "Private Placement Warrant" and collectively, the "Private Placement Warrants") at a price of$1.50 per Private Placement Warrant to the Sponsor, generating proceeds of$2.0 million . Upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering and the Private Placement,$287.5 million ($10.00 per Unit) of the net proceeds of the Initial Public Offering was held in a trust account ("Trust Account") located inthe United States withAmerican Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC acting as trustee, and invested only inUnited States "government securities" within the meaning of Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "Investment Company Act") having a maturity of 180 days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 promulgated under the Investment Company Act, which invest only in directU.S. government treasury obligations, as determined by us, until the earlier of: (i) the completion of a Business Combination and (ii) the distribution of the Trust Account. If we are unable to complete a Business Combination within 24 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering, orMarch 1, 2023 , 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 17 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Table of Contents 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) 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 each case to our obligations underDelaware law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. Results of Operations We have neither engaged in any operations (other than searching for a Business Combination after the Initial Public Offering) nor generated any revenues to date. 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 cash equivalents. We incur expenses as a result of being a public company (for legal, financial reporting, accounting and auditing compliance), as well as for due diligence expenses. For the three months endedJune 30, 2021 , we had a net loss of approximately$1.21 million , which consisted of approximately$0.24 million in formation and operating costs, approximately$0.1 million in franchise tax expense, and approximately$0.87 million loss from change in fair value of warrant liabilities, offset by and approximately$0.004 million income on funds held in the Trust Account. For the six months endedJune 30, 2021 , we had a net income of approximately$2.55 million , which consisted of approximately$0.31 million in formation and operating costs, approximately$0.1 million in franchise tax expense. and approximately$0.76 million in offering costs allocated to derivative warrant liabilities, offset by approximately$3.7 million gain from change in fair value of warrant liabilities and approximately$0.005 million income on funds held in
the Trust Account. Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements We did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as ofJune 30, 2021 . Contractual Obligations We do not have any long-term debt, capital lease obligations, operating lease obligations or long-term liabilities. The underwriters are entitled to a deferred fee of$0.55 per Unit, or$15,812,500 in the aggregate. The deferred fee will be waived by the underwriters in the event that the Company does not complete a Business Combination, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement. Critical Accounting Policies The preparation of unaudited condensed financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted inthe United States of America requires 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 unaudited condensed financial statements, and income and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. We have identified the following as our critical accounting policies: Investments Held in the Trust Account Our portfolio of investments held in the Trust Account is comprised ofU.S. government securities, within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act, with a maturity of 185 days or less, or investments in money market funds that invest inU.S. government securities, or a combination thereof. The investments held in the Trust Account are classified as trading securities. Trading securities are presented on the balance sheets at fair value at the end of each reporting period. Gains and losses resulting from the change in fair value of these securities is included in income from investments held in the Trust Account in the accompanying statement of operations. The estimated fair values of investments held in the Trust Account are determined using available market information. 18 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Table of Contents Class A Common Stock Subject to Possible Redemption We account for our Class A common stock subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification Topic 480 "Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity." Shares of Class A common stock subject to mandatory redemption (if any) are classified as liability instruments and are measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable shares of Class A common stock (including shares of Class A 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 our control) are classified as temporary equity. At all other times, shares of Class A common stock are classified as stockholders' equity. Our shares of Class A common stock feature certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of our control and subject to the occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, as ofJune 30, 2021 , 25,619,550 shares of Class A common stock subject to possible redemption were presented as temporary equity, outside of the stockholders' equity section of the accompanying balance sheet. Net Income (Loss) Per Share of Common Stock We apply the two-class method in calculating earnings per share. Net income (loss) per common share, basic and diluted for Class A redeemable common stock is calculated by dividing the interest and dividend income earned on the Trust Account, by the weighted average number of shares of Class A redeemable common stock outstanding for the period. Net loss per common share, basic and diluted for Class B non-redeemable common stock is calculated by dividing net loss less income attributable to Class A redeemable common stock, by the weighted average number of shares of Class B non-redeemable common stock outstanding for the period presented. Warrant Liability The Company accounts for the warrants in accordance with the guidance contained in ASC 815-40-15-7D and 7F under which the warrants do not meet the criteria for equity treatment and must be recorded as liabilities. Accordingly, the Company classifies the warrants as liabilities at their fair value and adjusts the warrants to fair value at each reporting period. This liability is 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 fair value of the Public Warrants has been estimated using a Monte Carlo simulation model. The Private Placement Warrants are valued using a Modified Black Scholes Option Pricing Model. Recent accounting standards InAugust 2020 , theFinancial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2020-06, Debt - Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts in Entity's Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40) ("ASU 2020-06") to simplify accounting for certain financial instruments. ASU 2020-06 eliminates the current models that require separation of beneficial conversion and cash conversion features from convertible instruments and simplifies the derivative scope exception guidance pertaining to equity classification of contracts in an entity's own equity. The new standard also introduces additional disclosures for convertible debt and freestanding instruments that are indexed to and settled in an entity's own equity. ASU 2020-06 amends the diluted earnings per share guidance, including the requirement to use the if-converted method for all convertible instruments. ASU 2020-06 is effectiveJanuary 1, 2022 and should be applied on a full or modified retrospective basis, with early adoption permitted beginning onJanuary 1, 2021 . Management is currently evaluating the new guidance, but does not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on the Company's financial statements. Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on our unaudited condensed financial statements.
