Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Alchemy Investments Acquisition Corp 1 (ALCY), a SPAC, reported a net loss of $341,897 for the quarter and $863,650 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared with strong gains a year earlier driven by trust investment income. Operating and formation costs rose to $1.15 million for the nine-month period, while income from investments in the trust account dropped sharply.

At September 30, 2025, ALCY held $8.66 million of investments in its trust account and $319,258 of cash outside the trust, but faced a working capital deficit of about $3.0 million and a shareholders’ deficit of $8.1 million. Management disclosed substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern, noting reliance on completing a business combination.

ALCY has signed a $540 million Business Combination Agreement with Cartiga, LLC, using an Up‑C structure with a new Delaware “Pubco” that will be renamed Cartiga Holdings, Inc. The deal requires, among other conditions, shareholder approvals, Nasdaq listing of the combined company, and at least $40 million of available closing cash, with sponsor share forfeitures possible if this cash condition is waived.

Positive

None.

Negative

Going concern uncertainty: as of September 30, 2025 ALCY had only $319,258 of cash outside the trust, a $3,049,242 working capital deficit and disclosed substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern absent a completed business combination.
Higher leverage and redemption overhang: the related-party promissory note rose to $1,710,000 and the deferred underwriting fee remains $5,175,000, while trust assets declined to $8,662,826, increasing pressure to close the Cartiga deal on acceptable terms.

Insights

ALCY’s Cartiga deal is sizable but closing risk is elevated by redemptions, leverage and going concern uncertainty.

ALCY has transitioned from prior-year gains to a net loss of $863,650 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, as investment income from its trust declined and operating costs rose to $1,150,604. The trust account balance fell to $8,662,826, reflecting substantial redemptions, while liabilities include a $5,175,000 deferred underwriting fee and a related-party promissory note that increased to $1,710,000.

The signed Business Combination Agreement with Cartiga, LLC values the target’s equity at $540,000,000 and uses an Up‑C structure in which Pubco (to be renamed Cartiga Holdings, Inc.) will be the public company and Cartiga will remain the operating partnership. The transaction requires shareholder approvals, antitrust clearance, Nasdaq listing of Pubco, and “Available Closing Buyer Cash” of at least $40,000,000, unless Cartiga waives this condition. If it is waived and closing cash falls below the threshold, the sponsor must forfeit part of its equity on a tiered schedule, which shifts deal economics as redemptions rise.

Going-concern language is prominent: with only $319,258 of cash outside the trust and a working capital deficit of $3,049,242 as of September 30, 2025, management states that substantial doubt exists about ALCY’s ability to continue as a going concern, absent a successful combination. The SPAC has extended its deadline to as late as September 9, 2026 by funding monthly deposits (the lesser of $30,000 or $0.03 per non‑redeemed share) into the trust, which increases reliance on sponsor support while delaying liquidation.

On October 22, 2024, the Company issued an aggregate of 2,874,999 shares of its Class A ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share to Sponsor, and the holder of the Company’s Class B ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share, upon the conversion of an equal number of Class B Shares. The Class A Shares issued in connection with the Conversion are subject to the same restrictions as applied to the Class B Shares before the Conversion, including, among other things, certain transfer restrictions, waiver of redemption rights and the obligation to vote in favor of an initial business combination as described in the prospectus for our initial public offering. Following the Conversion, there are 14,970,499 Class A Shares and one Class B Share issued and outstanding.

(2)

On November 7, 2024, 10,438,037 Class A ordinary shares were redeemed, leaving 4,532,462 Class A Shares, which includes the 2,874,999 Class A Shares that were issued in exchange for the Class B Shares on October 22, 2024, and one Class B Share. As a result, $114,357,720 (or $10.95 per share) was removed from the Company’s trust account to pay such holders, without taking into account additional allocation of payments to cover any tax obligation of the Company since that date. After the redemptions, $11,851,808 remained in the Company’s trust account.

(3)

On September 11, 2025, 324,420 Class A ordinary shares were redeemed, leaving 4,208,042 Class A shares. As a result, $3,791,334 (or approximately $11.68 per share) was removed from the Company’s trust account to pay such redeeming shareholders, without taking into account additional allocation of payments to cover any tax obligation of the Company since that date. After redemptions, approximately $8,619,296 will remain in the Company’s trust account.

NOTE 1. DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION, BUSINESS OPERATIONS AND GOING CONCERN

Alchemy Investments Acquisition Corp 1 (the “Company”) is a blank check company incorporated in Cayman Islands on October 27, 2021. The Company was formed for the purpose of entering into a merger, capital share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses (a “Business Combination”). The Company is not limited to a particular industry or geographic region for purposes of consummating a Business Combination. The Company is an early stage and emerging growth company and, as such, the Company is subject to all of the risks associated with emerging growth companies.

The Company has two wholly owned subsidiaries, Alchemy Acquisition Holdings, Inc. (the “PubCo”), a Delaware corporation, formed on June 11, 2025, and Alchemy Merger Sub, LLC (the “NewCo”), a Delaware limited liability company, formed as a wholly owned subsidiary of PubCo on June 10, 2025. On July 1, 2025, the Company subscribed for 1,000 shares in PubCo and indirectly owned NewCo. The only activity Pubco had during the period ended September 30, 2025 was the accrual of organization costs, and the NewCo was inactive.

As of September 30, 2025, the Company had not commenced any operations. All activity from October 27, 2021 (inception) through September 30, 2025 relates to the Company’s formation and initial public offering (“Initial Public Offering”), and subsequent pursuit of a target company to affect a Business Combination. The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of a Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company will generate non-operating income in the form of investment income on cash and cash equivalents from the proceeds derived from the Initial Public Offering. The Company has selected December 31 as its fiscal year end.

The registration statement for the Company’s Initial Public Offering was declared effective on May 4, 2023. On May 9, 2023, the Company consummated the Initial Public Offering of 11,500,000 units, (the “Units” and, with respect to the Class A ordinary shares included in the Units sold, the “Public Shares”), including 1,500,000 Units issued pursuant to the exercise of the underwriter’s over-allotment option in full, generating gross proceeds of $115,000,000, which is discussed in Note 3.

Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the sale of and issued 538,000 and 57,500 private placement shares to Alchemy DeepTech Capital LLC (the “Sponsor”) and Cantor Fitzgerald & Co. (the “Underwriter”), respectively (together, the “Private Placement Shares”) at a price of $10.00 per share, generating gross proceeds of $5,955,000, which is described in Note 4. The Private Placement Shares are identical to the Class A Ordinary Shares included in the units sold in the Initial Public Offering, except that the Private Placement Shares: (i) are not transferable, assignable, or salable until 30 days after the completion of our initial business combination and (ii) are entitled to registration rights.

The Sponsor, officers and directors have agreed to (i) waive their redemption rights with respect to any Private Placement Shares held by them in connection with the completion of our initial Business Combination, (ii) waive their redemption rights with respect to any Private Placement Shares held by them in connection with a shareholder vote to approve an amendment to our Second Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association (the “Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association”) (A) to modify the substance or timing of our obligation to allow redemption in connection with our initial Business Combination or certain amendments to our Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association prior thereto or to redeem 100% of our Public Shares if we do not complete our initial Business Combination within 18 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering or (B) with respect to any other material provisions relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-initial Business Combination activity, (iii) waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to any Private Placement Shares held by them if we fail to complete our initial Business Combination within 18 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering and (iv) vote any Private Placement Shares held by them in favor of our initial Business Combination.

Following the closing of the Initial Public Offering on May 9, 2023, an amount of $116,725,000 from the net proceeds of the sale of the Units in the Initial Public Offering and the sale of the Private Placement Shares was placed in a trust account (the “Trust Account”), and will be invested only in U.S. government treasury obligations with maturities 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, until the earlier of: (i) the completion of a Business Combination and (ii) the distribution of the funds held in the Trust Account, as described below.

(UNAUDITED)

Transaction costs related to the issuances described above amounted to $9,088,588, consisting of $2,300,000 of cash underwriting fees, $5,175,000 of deferred underwriting fees and $1,613,588 of other offering costs. In addition, on September 30, 2025, $319,258 of cash and cash equivalents were held outside of the Trust Account and is available for working capital purposes.

The Company’s management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and the sale of the Private Placement Shares, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be applied generally toward consummating a Business Combination. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to complete a Business Combination successfully.

The Company must complete one or more initial Business Combinations having an aggregate fair market value of at least 80% of the net assets held in the Trust Account (as defined below) (excluding the amount of deferred underwriting discounts held in Trust and taxes payable on the income earned on the Trust Account) at the time of the agreement to enter into the initial Business Combination. However, the Company only intends to complete a Business Combination if the post-transaction company owns or acquires 50% or more of the issued and outstanding voting securities of the target or otherwise acquires a controlling interest in the target sufficient for it not to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”). Upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering, management has agreed that an amount equal to at least $10.15 per Unit sold in the Initial Public Offering, including the proceeds from the sale of the Private Placement Shares, will be held in a trust account located in the United States with Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company acting as trustee, and 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, as determined by the Company, until the earlier of: (i) the completion of a Business Combination and (ii) the distribution of the Trust Account as described below.

The Company provides the holders (the “Public Shareholders”) of the Company’s Public Shares with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares upon the completion of a Business Combination either (i) in connection with a shareholders meeting called to approve the Business Combination or (ii) by means of a tender offer. The decision as to whether the Company will seek shareholder approval of a Business Combination or conduct a tender offer will be made by the Company, solely in its discretion. The Public Shareholders are entitled to redeem their Public Shares for a pro rata portion of the amount held in the Trust Account, plus any investment income earned thereon (less taxes payable). The per-share amount to be distributed to Public Shareholders who redeem their Public Shares will not be reduced by the deferred underwriting commissions the Company will pay to the Underwriter (as discussed in Note 6). These Public Shares are recorded at a redemption value and classified as temporary equity in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity. If the Company seeks shareholder approval, the Company will proceed with a Business Combination if a majority of the shares voted are voted in favor of the Business Combination. If a shareholder vote is not required by law and the Company does not decide to hold a shareholder vote for business or other legal reasons, the Company will, pursuant to its Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association (the “Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association”), conduct the redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and file tender offer documents with the SEC prior to completing a Business Combination. If, however, shareholder approval of the transaction is required by law, or the Company decides to obtain shareholder approval for business or legal reasons, the Company will offer to redeem the Public Shares in conjunction with a proxy solicitation pursuant to the proxy rules and not pursuant to the tender offer rules. Additionally, each Public Shareholder may elect to redeem their Public Shares irrespective of whether they vote for or against the proposed transaction or whether they were a public shareholder on the record date for the general meeting held to approve the proposed transaction. If the Company seeks shareholder approval in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor has agreed to vote its Founder Shares (as defined below in Note 5) and any Public Shares purchased during or after the Initial Public Offering in favor of a Business Combination. In addition, the Sponsor has agreed to waive its redemption rights with respect to its Founder Shares and Public Shares in connection with the completion of a Business Combination.

On May 4, 2023, and in connection with the IPO, the Company adopted an Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association. The Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association provides that a Public Shareholder, together with any affiliate of such shareholder or any other person with whom such shareholder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined under Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), is restricted from redeeming its shares with respect to more than an aggregate of 15% of the Public Shares, without the prior consent of the Company. The Sponsor has agreed not

(UNAUDITED)

to propose an amendment to the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association (A) to modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to allow redemption in connection with a Business Combination or to redeem 100% of the Public Shares if the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period or during any Extension Period (as defined below) or (B) with respect to any other material provision relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-initial Business Combination activity, unless the Company provides the Public Shareholders with the opportunity to redeem their Public Shares in conjunction with any such amendment.

If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within 18 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering (the “Combination Period”) and the Company’s shareholders have not further amended the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association to extend such Combination Period (the “Extension Period”), the Company will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up; (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but no more than ten business days thereafter subject to lawfully available funds therefor, 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 investment income earned on the funds held in the Trust Account (less taxes payable and up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses) divided by the number of the then outstanding Public Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish Public Shareholders’ rights as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidation 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, liquidate and dissolve, subject in each case to the Company’s obligations under Cayman 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 the warrants, which will expire worthless if the Company fails to complete an initial Business Combination within the Combination Period or during any Extension Period.

The Sponsor, officers and directors have agreed to waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to their Founder Shares and Private Placement Shares if the Company fails to complete an initial Business Combination within the Combination Period or during any Extension Period. However, the Sponsor is entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to its Public Shares if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period or during any Extension Period. The Underwriter has agreed to waive their rights to the deferred underwriting commission (see Note 6) held in the Trust Account in the event the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period or during any Extension Period and, in such event, such amounts will be included with the other funds held in the Trust Account that will be available to fund the redemption of the Public Shares. In the event of such distribution, it is possible that the per share value of the residual assets remaining available for distribution (including Trust Account assets) will be less than $10.15. In order to protect the amounts held in the Trust Account, the Sponsor has agreed to be liable to the Company if and to the extent any claims by a third party (except for the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm) for services rendered or products sold to the Company, or a prospective target business with which the Company has discussed entering into a transaction agreement (a “Target”), or any claim by a taxing authority, reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account to below (i) $10.15 per Public Share or (ii) the lesser amount per Public Share held in the Trust Account as of the date of the liquidation of the Trust Account due to reductions in the value of the trust assets, in each case net of interest which may be withdrawn to pay taxes, provided that such liability will not apply to any claims by a third party who executed a waiver of any and all rights to seek access to the Trust Account nor will it apply to any claims under the Company’s indemnity of the Underwriter of the Initial Public Offering against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). In the event that an executed waiver is deemed to be unenforceable against a third party, the Sponsor will not be responsible to the extent of any liability for such third-party claims. The Company will seek to reduce the possibility that the Sponsor will have to indemnify the Trust Account due to claims of creditors by endeavoring to have all vendors, service providers (other than the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm), prospective target businesses or other entities with which the Company does business, execute agreements with the Company waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to monies held in the Trust Account.

Proposed Business Combination

On August 22, 2025, Alchemy Investments Acquisition Corp 1, a Cayman Islands exempted company limited by shares (“ALCY” or “Parent”), entered into a business combination agreement (as it may be amended and/or restated from time to time, the “Business Combination Agreement”), by and among Alchemy Acquisition Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of the ALCY (“Pubco”), Alchemy Merger Sub, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly-owned subsidiary of Pubco

(“Newco”), Cartiga, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Company” or “Cartiga”), and Halle Benett, as the representative (the “Sellers’ Representative”) of holders of the Company’s securities (the “Sellers”, and collectively, with ALCY, Pubco, Newco and Cartiga, referred to as the “Parties”).

The Business Combination Agreement was unanimously approved by all of the Parent’s disinterested directors on August 19, 2025. Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, (a) the Parent will domesticate from the Cayman Islands to Delaware by merging with and into the Pubco with the Pubco surviving the merger and changing its name to Cartiga Holdings, Inc. (the “Domestication”), (b) after the Domestication, Newco will merge with and into the Company with the Company surviving the merger (hereinafter referred to as “OpCo”) and continue its existence under the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act, and OpCo becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of Pubco (the “Merger”), and (c) the existing limited liability company agreement of OpCo will be amended and restated to, among other things, make Pubco the sole managing member of OpCo. The Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Agreement are collectively referred to as the “Business Combination”, and as a result of the Business Combination, Pubco will be the publicly traded reporting company in an “Up-C” structure, with two classes of common stock, changing its name to “Cartiga Holdings, Inc.” and sometimes referred to herein as “New Cartiga.”

The proposed transaction is expected to close in the first quarter of 2026, following the receipt of the required approval by the Company’s shareholders and the fulfillment of customary closing conditions.

Following the time of the closing (the “Closing,” and the date on which the Closing occurs, the “Closing Date”) of the Business Combination, the combined company will be organized in an umbrella partnership C corporation (“Up-C”) structure, in which substantially all of the assets and the business of the combined company will be held by Cartiga. The combined company’s business will continue to operate through Cartiga and its subsidiaries. In connection with the Closing, Pubco will change its name to “Cartiga Holdings, Inc”. This organizational structure will allow the holders of limited liability company equity interests of Cartiga to retain their equity ownership in Cartiga, an entity that is classified as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes, in the form of post-merger OpCo Units. Those investors who, prior to the Business Combination, held ALCY Class A Ordinary Shares or ALCY Class B Ordinary Shares will, by contrast, hold their equity ownership in Pubco, which is a domestic corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

In connection with the Domestication, (i) every outstanding ALCY Class A Ordinary Share, ALCY Class B Ordinary Share, ALCY Preference Share, ALCY Unit and ALCY Warrant shall convert to an equal number of shares of Pubco Class A Common Stock, shares of Pubco Class B Common Stock, shares of Pubco Preferred Stock, Pubco Units and Pubco Warrants, respectively, then, (ii) after giving effect to redemptions occurring in connection with the Business Combination, each ALCY Class A Ordinary Share will convert automatically, on a one-for-one basis, into one share of Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of Pubco (each a share of “Pubco Class A Common Stock”); (iii) each then issued and outstanding warrant of ALCY will become exercisable for one share of Pubco Class A Common Stock (“Pubco Warrant”), pursuant to the Warrant Agreement, dated as of May 4, 2023, by and between ALCY and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as warrant agent, and (iv) each then issued and outstanding ALCY Unit shall separate and convert automatically into one share of Pubco Class A Common Stock, and one-half of one Pubco Warrant.

Following the Domestication of ALCY to the State of Delaware, Newco will merge with and into Cartiga, with Cartiga surviving the Merger in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions of the Business Combination Agreement. Following the Merger, the separate limited liability company existence of Newco shall cease, and Cartiga shall continue as the OpCo.

Under the Business Combination Agreement, Pubco has agreed to acquire all of the limited liability equity interests (the Company Equity Interests) of the Company for $540,000,000 (the “Equity Value”), comprised of the Merger Consideration (as defined below). “Merger Consideration” means a number of units of equity interests in OpCo (“OpCo Units”) and shares of Class B voting non-economic common stock (“Class B Common Stock”) in Pubco, in each case equal to (a) the quotient obtained by dividing (a) the Equity Value by (b) $10.00 multiplied by (i) the number of Company Equity Interests owned by each Seller as of the Closing, divided by (ii) the total number of issued and outstanding Company Equity Interests as of the Closing.

ALCY shall complete the Domestication prior to the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”). At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any further action on the part of any party to the Business Combination Agreement or otherwise, each Company Equity Interest issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be canceled and automatically converted

(UNAUDITED)

into each Seller’s right to receive their respective Merger Consideration. As of the Effective Time, all Company Equity Interests shall thereafter cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the foregoing consideration. The units of equity interests of Newco that are issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will, by virtue of the Merger and without further action on the part of ALCY, be converted into an aggregate number of OpCo Units equal to the number of shares of Pubco Class A Common Stock and Pubco Class B Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. Each share of the Pubco Class B Common Stock that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be automatically converted into one (1) share of Pubco Class A Common Stock. No certificates or scrip representing fractional ALCY Ordinary Shares will be issued pursuant to the Business Combination.

Immediately following the closing, New Cartiga’s board of directors will consist of no more than seven (7) directors, of which the Company has the right to designate six (6) directors and Alchemy DeepTech Capital, LLC has the right to designate one (1) director. At the Closing, all of the respective officers of ALCY and Pubco shall resign and the following individuals, which may be the same officers as those of the Company, are expected to be appointed as the officers of New Cartiga: Samuel Wathen, President and Chief Executive Officer; Michael Bogansky, Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer; James Brady, Executive Vice President, Head of Commercial Funding; and Ryan Melcher, Executive Vice President, General Counsel & Corporate Secretary.

ALCY will prepare and file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) a Registration Statement on Form S-4, that will include a preliminary proxy statement/prospectus, and when available, a definitive proxy statement and final prospectus, and call an extraordinary general meeting of the holders of ALCY Ordinary Shares to vote at the meeting (the “Extraordinary Meeting”). The approval of the post-Closing organizational documents and the Domestication require a special resolution under Cayman Islands law, being the affirmative vote of a majority of not less than two-thirds of the votes cast by the ALCY Ordinary Shares, represented in person or by proxy and entitled to vote thereon at the extraordinary general meeting. The affirmative vote of a simple majority of the votes cast by holders of ALCY Ordinary Shares, represented in person or by proxy and entitled to vote thereon at the Extraordinary Meeting is required to approve the Business Combination Agreement, the Business Combination and certain other actions related thereto as provided in the Companies Act, the Current Charter and applicable listing rules of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”).

ALCY, Pubco, Newco and the Company have made customary representations, warranties and covenants in the Business Combination Agreement, including, among other things, covenants with respect to the conduct of the business of ALCY and the Company prior to the closing of the Business Combination. The Parties have also agreed to customary “no shop” obligations. The representations and warranties of ALCY, Pubco, Newco and the Company will not survive the closing of the Merger.

The Closing of the Business Combination is subject to certain customary conditions of the respective parties, including, among other things, that: (a) the applicable ALCY shareholder and the Company’s member approvals shall have been obtained; (b) there shall have been no Company Material Adverse Effect or Buyer Material Adverse Effect (each as defined in the Business Combination Agreement) since the date of the Business Combination Agreement; (c) the waiting period (or any extension thereof) applicable under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976 shall have expired or terminated; (d) the Available Closing Buyer Cash (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement) shall not be less than $40,000,000; (e) Pubco’s initial listing application in connection with the Transactions (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement) shall have been approved by Nasdaq so that immediately following the Merger, New Cartiga satisfies all applicable initial listing requirements of Nasdaq; and (f) each of the parties to the Additional Agreements shall have delivered, or caused to be delivered, duly executed copies of the Ancillary Agreements. “Ancillary Agreements” means the Support and Non-Redemption Agreement, the Support Agreement, the A&R Registration Rights Agreements, the Lock-up Agreements, the OpCo LLCA, the Shareholders’ Agreement, the Tax Receivable Agreement and the Exchange Agreement (each as defined below).

If, at closing, the Available Closing Buyer Cash is less than $40,000,000 and Cartiga elects to waive the minimum cash condition, the Sponsor will be required to forfeit a portion of its shares in the combined company. The number of shares retained by the Sponsor will be determined according to a tiered schedule based on the actual Available Closing Buyer Cash at closing, with the Sponsor retaining fewer shares as the closing cash decreases. For example, if Available Closing Buyer Cash is at least $35,000,000 but less than $40,000,000, the Sponsor will maintain 3,198,875 shares; if less than $5,000,000, the Sponsor will maintain 1,700,000 shares.

The Business Combination Agreement may be terminated by Pubco or the Company under certain circumstances, including, among others: (a) by mutual written consent of Pubco and the Company; (b) by either Pubco or the Company if the closing of the Business Combination has not occurred on or before May 1, 2026; (c) by either Pubco or the Company if any Governmental Authority (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement) in the United States shall have enacted, issued, promulgated, enforced or entered any injunction, order, decree or ruling (whether temporary, preliminary or permanent) which has become final and nonappealable and has the effect of making consummation of the Transactions, including the Merger, illegal or otherwise preventing or prohibiting consummation of the Transactions, the Merger; (d) by Pubco if the Company shall have failed to obtain the necessary member approvals; (e) by the Company if ALCY shall have failed to obtain the necessary shareholder approval within forty-five (45) days after the Registration Statement becomes effective; (f) by Pubco upon a breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement on the part of the Company set forth in the Business Combination Agreement, or if any representation or warranty of the Company shall have become untrue; provided that Pubco has not waived a Terminating Company Breach (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement) and ALCY, Pubco and Newco are not then in material breach of their representations, warranties, covenants or agreements in the Business Combination Agreement; provided, further, that if such Terminating Company Breach is curable by the Company, Pubco may not terminate the Business Combination Agreement so long as the Company continues to exercise its reasonable efforts to cure such breach, unless such breach is not cured within thirty (30) days after notice of such breach is provided by Pubco to the Company; (g) by the Company upon a breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement on the part of ALCY, Pubco or Newco set forth in the Business Combination Agreement, or if any representation or warranty of ALCY, Pubco or Newco shall have become untrue; provided that the Company has not waived a Terminating Buyer Breach (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement) and the Company are not then in material breach of their representations, warranties, covenants or agreements; provided, further, that, if such Terminating Buyer Breach is curable by ALCY, Pubco and Newco, the Company may not terminate the Business Combination Agreement for so long as ALCY, Pubco and Newco continue to exercise their reasonable efforts to cure such breach, unless such breach is not cured within thirty (30) days after notice of such breach is provided by the Company to Pubco; (h) by the Company if the Closing has not occurred on or before the 45^th day after the date on which Registration Statement is declared effective and the Available Closing Buyer Cash condition has not been met; or (i) by the Company, if prior to the receipt of the Company Member Approval, the Company Board authorizes the Company, to the extent permitted by and subject to compliance with the terms of the Business Combination Agreement, to enter into an definitive agreement in connection with a Superior Offer; provided, that the Company shall have paid any required termination fee; and provided further, that in the event of such termination, the Company substantially concurrently enters into such definitive agreement in connection with such Superior Offer.

Support and Non-Redemption Agreement

In connection with the Business Combination Agreement, ALCY, Pubco, certain shareholders of ALCY (“ALCY Securityholders”), the Company and the directors and officers of ALCY entered into a support and non-redemption agreement (the “Support and Non-Redemption Agreement”) providing that, among other things, (a) ALCY Securityholders and the respective directors and officers of each of ALCY and Pubco will vote their equity securities of ALCY in favor of the Parent Proposals (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement), (b) ALCY Securityholders will not exercise their Redemption Rights (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement) and (c) ALCY Securityholders will waive any adjustment to the conversion ratio set forth in the Parent Organizational Documents (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement).

Support Agreement

ALCY, Pubco, the Company, and certain equity holders of the Company (the “Company Securityholders”) entered into a support agreement (the “Support Agreement”) providing that, among other things, such Company Securityholders will vote their equity securities of the Company in favor of the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement and the Merger.

Lock-Up Agreements

ALCY, Pubco, the Company, and the Sellers entered into Lock-up Agreements (the “Lock-up Agreements”) pursuant to which the Pubco Class B Common Stock and OpCo Units included in the Merger Consideration, as well as any Pubco Class A Common Stock exchanged therefor pursuant to the Exchange Agreement (as defined below) they may hold (together referred to as the “Lock-Up Shares”), shall be subject to a lock-up period commencing on the Closing Date and ending on the earlier of (a) the date that is six (6)

(UNAUDITED)

months after the Closing Date and (b) the date following the Closing Date on which ALCY completes a liquidation, merger, share exchange or other similar transaction that results in all of ALCY’s shareholders having the right to exchange their shares of common stock for cash, securities or other property; provided, however, that the Lock-up Shares will be released from the lock-up if, subsequent to Closing Date, the closing price of Pubco Class A Common Stock equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for share splits, share dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after the Closing Date.

Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement

In connection with the Closing, ALCY, Pubco (and subsequent to the Business Combination, New Cartiga), the Company, certain shareholders of ALCY (“ALCY Holders”), and certain members of the Company (together with ALCY Holders, the “Holders”) will enter into that certain Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement (the “A&R Registration Rights Agreement”) pursuant to which, Pubco will agree to file, within thirty (30) calendar days after the consummation of the Business Combination, a shelf registration statement registering the resale of New Cartiga equity held by the Holders, and will grant to the Holders certain registration rights, including customary piggyback registration rights and demand registration rights, which are subject to customary terms and conditions, including with respect to cooperation and reduction of underwritten shelf takedown provisions (subject to certain lock-up restrictions referenced therein, including those documented in the Lock-up Agreements (as defined above)).

Second Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement

In connection with the Business Combination, Cartiga will amend and restate its limited liability company agreement by adopting the Second A&R Operating Agreement (the “OpCo LLCA”). The OpCo LLCA will (i) permit the issuance and ownership of the post-Recapitalization equity of Cartiga as contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement and (ii) admit Pubco as the managing member of Cartiga. Melodeon and ASRS will control Pubco immediately after the Closing by virtue of their ownership of Pubco Class B Common Stock.

Tax Receivable Agreement

In connection with the Business Combination, Pubco will enter into a Tax Receivable Agreement (the TRA) with certain Cartiga Members (the “TRA Holders”). OpCo intends to have in effect an election under Section 754 of the Code for each taxable year in which sales and exchanges of OpCo Units in connection with or following the Business Combination (“TRA Exchanges”) occur, which is expected to result in adjustments to the tax basis of the assets of OpCo as a result of such TRA Exchanges. The TRA generally provides for the payment by Pubco to the TRA Holders of 85% of the cash tax benefits, if any, that Pubco realizes (or in certain cases is deemed to realize), calculated using certain simplifying assumptions as a result of (i) tax basis adjustments resulting from TRA Exchanges and (ii) certain other tax benefits related to entering into the TRA, including tax benefits attributable to making payments under the TRA. These current and potential future tax basis adjustments are expected to increase (for tax purposes) the depreciation and amortization deductions available to Pubco and, therefore, may reduce the amount of U.S. federal, state and local tax that Pubco would otherwise be required to pay in the future. The tax basis adjustments upon TRA Exchanges may also decrease gains (or increase losses) on future dispositions of certain assets to the extent tax basis is allocated to those assets. Actual tax benefits realized by Pubco may differ from tax benefits calculated under the TRA as a result of the use of certain assumptions in the TRA, including the use of an assumed state and local income tax rate to calculate tax benefits. The payment obligation under the TRA is an obligation of Pubco and not of OpCo. Pubco will generally retain the benefit of the remaining 15% of these cash tax benefits.

We expect that the payments Pubco will be required to make under the TRA could be substantial. Estimating the amount and timing of Pubco’s realization of tax benefits subject to the TRA is by its nature imprecise. The actual increases in tax basis covered by the TRA, as well as the amount and timing of Pubco’s ability to use any deductions (or decreases in gain or increases in loss) arising from such increases in tax basis, are dependent upon significant future events, including but not limited to the timing of the redemptions of OpCo Units, the price of the Pubco Class A Common Stock at the time of a TRA Exchange, the extent to which such redemptions are taxable transactions, the depreciation and amortization periods that apply to the increase in tax basis, the amount, character, and timing of taxable income Pubco generates in the future, the U.S. federal income tax rate then applicable, and the portion of Pubco’s payments under the TRA that constitute imputed interest or give rise to depreciable or amortizable tax basis. Accordingly, estimating the amount and timing

Table of Contents

ALCHEMY INVESTMENTS ACQUISITION CORP 1

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 2025

(UNAUDITED)

of payments that may become due under the TRA is also by its nature imprecise. For purposes of the TRA, net cash savings in tax generally will be calculated by comparing Pubco’s actual tax liability (determined by using the actual applicable U.S. federal income tax rate and an assumed combined state and local income tax rate) to the amount Pubco would have been required to pay had it not been able to utilize any of the tax benefits subject to the TRA. Thus, the amount and timing of any payments under the TRA are also dependent upon significant future events, including those noted above in respect of estimating the amount and timing of Pubco’s realization of tax benefits.

Payments under the TRA will be based on the tax reporting positions Pubco determines, and the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) or another tax authority may challenge all or a part of the existing tax basis, tax basis increases, or other tax attributes subject to the TRA, and a court could sustain such challenge. The parties to the TRA will not reimburse Pubco for any payments previously made if such tax basis or other tax benefits are subsequently disallowed, except that any excess payments made to a party under the TRA will be netted against future payments otherwise to be made under the TRA, if any, after the determination of such excess.

In addition, the TRA provides that if (1) Pubco breaches any of its material obligations under the TRA (including in the event that Pubco is more than three months late making a payment that is due under the TRA, subject to certain exceptions), (2) Pubco is subject to certain bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceedings, or (3) at any time, Pubco elects an early termination of the TRA, Pubco’s obligations under the TRA (with respect to all OpCo Units, whether or not such OpCo Units have been the subject of a TRA Exchange before or after such transaction) would accelerate and become payable in a lump sum amount equal to the present value of the anticipated future tax benefits calculated based on certain assumptions, including that Pubco would have sufficient taxable income to fully utilize the deductions arising from the tax deductions, tax basis and other tax attributes subject to the TRA.

The TRA also provides that, upon certain changes of control or other significant transactions, in the discretion of each TRA Party, Pubco’s obligations under the TRA may be accelerated and become payable in a lump sum as described above. Such acceleration would be based on certain assumptions, including that Pubco or its successor would have sufficient taxable income to fully utilize the increased tax deductions and tax basis and other benefits covered by the TRA. As a result, upon any acceleration of Pubco’s obligations under the TRA (including upon a change of control), Pubco could be required to make payments under the TRA that are greater than 85% of its actual cash tax savings, which could negatively impact its liquidity. The change of control provisions in the TRA may also result in situations where the TRA Parties have interests that differ from or are in addition to those of other holders of Pubco Class A Common Stock.

Finally, because Pubco is a holding company with no operations of its own, its ability to make payments under the TRA depends on the ability of OpCo to make distributions to it. To the extent that Pubco is unable to make payments under the TRA for any reason, such payments will be deferred and will accrue interest until paid, which could negatively impact Pubco’s results of operations and could also affect its liquidity in periods in which such payments are made.

Exchange Agreement

In connection with the Business Combination, Pubco, OpCo and certain Cartiga Members will enter into an Exchange Agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”). Pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, such Cartiga Members will have the right from time to time, on the terms and conditions contained in the Exchange Agreement, to exchange their OpCo Units and Class B Shares for, at the option of Pubco, shares of Pubco Class A Common Stock or cash.

Shareholders Agreement

In connection with the Business Combination, Pubco, the Company, Melodeon LBS GP, LLC (“Melodeon”) and its affiliated funds, and the Arizona State Retirement System (“ASRS”) will enter into a Shareholders Agreement (the “Shareholders Agreement”). The Shareholders Agreement sets forth the governance and consent rights of Melodeon and ASRS, as well as restrictions on share transfers and other shareholder obligations.

Table of Contents

ALCHEMY INVESTMENTS ACQUISITION CORP 1

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 2025

(UNAUDITED)

Under the Shareholders Agreement, Melodeon and ASRS are granted rights to nominate directors to Pubco’s board based on their respective ownership levels. Melodeon may nominate up to three directors, with thresholds at 60%, 40%, and 15% ownership. ASRS may nominate up to two directors, with thresholds at 50% and 25% ownership. If Melodeon and ASRS collectively own at least 75% of Pubco’s outstanding shares, they may jointly nominate one independent director. ASRS is also entitled to representation on board committees, subject to applicable independence and listing standards.

For so long as ASRS beneficially owns at least 25% of Pubco’s outstanding shares, certain corporate actions require the approval of ASRS-nominated directors. These include acquisitions or joint ventures exceeding 9.9% of Pubco’s net asset value, the first underwritten public offering, a sale of Pubco, material divestitures or asset sales exceeding 9.9% of net asset value, certain securities issuances and revenue-sharing agreements, borrowings resulting in a debt-to-equity ratio exceeding 3.5:1, initiation of bankruptcy proceedings, certain tax elections and audit settlements, non-pro rata shareholder distributions, changes to Pubco’s business lines, and increases to the share limits under Pubco’s incentive plan.

Transfers of Pubco shares to affiliates are permitted only if the transferee agrees to be bound by the Shareholders Agreement and becomes a party thereto. The Shareholders Agreement also provides for indemnification by Pubco of the stockholders party thereto, and their affiliates, for liabilities arising from their control or influence over Pubco or actions of their board designees, subject to customary exceptions. The Shareholders Agreement will terminate when neither Melodeon nor ASRS retains board nomination rights under its terms.

Going Concern and Liquidity

As of September 30, 2025, the Company had $319,258 in cash and cash equivalents held outside of the Trust Account and a working capital deficit of $3,049,242. The Company has incurred and expects to continue to incur significant costs in pursuit of the Company’s financing and acquisition plans. The Company anticipates that the cash held outside of the Trust Account as of September 30, 2025 will not be sufficient to allow the Company to operate for at least one year from the date these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are issued, and therefore substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern exists. Management plans to address this uncertainty with the successful closing of a Business Combination. The Company had until November 9, 2024 to consummate a Business Combination. If a Business Combination was not consummated by November 9, 2024, there would be a mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution of the Company. The Company was in the process of identifying a potential company for an initial Business Combination but required additional time.

An Annual Meeting was held on October 31, 2024, where the shareholders of the Company approved amending the Company’s Articles of Association as a special resolution, giving the Company the right to extend from November 9, 2024 for an additional three months until February 9, 2025, and thereafter on a month-to-month basis, as determined by the Directors in their sole discretion, until September 9, 2025.

Under similar circumstances, on September 4, 2025, the Company held the Annual Meeting and the shareholders of the Company approved the amending the Company’s Articles of Association as a special resolution, giving the company the right to extend the date by which it has to complete a business combination on a month-to-month basis, as determined by the Directors in their sole discretion, until September 9, 2026, (the “Extended Date”) by placing into the trust account at Continental Stock & Transfer Company, the lesser of $30,000 or $0.03 per non-redeemed public Class A ordinary share per month (which amount came to $22,126.29), until September 9, 2026 – the date by which, if the Company has not consummated its initial Business Combination, the Company must liquidate and dissolve.

There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to consummate any Business Combination by the Extended Date. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

(UNAUDITED)

September 9, 2026. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, investments held in the Trust Account included $322,126 and $90,000, respectively, for amounts held for extension.

Risks and Uncertainties

As a result of the military action by the Russian Federation and Belarus in the country of Ukraine and related economic sanctions, the armed conflict in Israel and the Gaza Strip, and the international trade policies in the U.S. and elsewhere, including tariffs and other barriers, the Company’s ability to consummate a Business Combination, or the operations of a target business with which the Company ultimately consummates a Business Combination, may be materially and adversely affected. Further, the Company’s ability to consummate a transaction may be dependent on the ability to raise equity and debt financing which may be impacted by these events, including as a result of increased market volatility, or decreased market liquidity in third-party financing being unavailable on terms acceptable to the Company or at all. The impact of this action and related sanctions on the world economy, the tariffs, and the specific impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations and/or ability to consummate a Business Combination are not yet determinable. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company are presented in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X of the SEC. Certain information or footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC for interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes necessary for a comprehensive presentation of financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of a normal recurring nature, which are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, operating results and cash flows for the periods presented. The interim results for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2025 or for any future periods.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All transactions and balances among the Company and its subsidiaries have been eliminated upon consolidation.

Emerging Growth Company

The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”), and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the independent registered public accounting firm attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.

Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected

Table of Contents

ALCHEMY INVESTMENTS ACQUISITION CORP 1

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 2025

(UNAUDITED)

not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements with another public company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements 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 at the date of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities during the reporting period. Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, cash equivalents included $319,258 and $181,174, respectively, for amounts invested in a treasury liquidity fund.

Investments Held in Trust Account

As of September 30, 2025, the assets held in the Trust Account were held in money market funds, which were invested in U.S. Treasury securities. All of the Company’s investments held in the Trust Account are classified as trading securities. Such trading securities are presented on the unaudited condensed balance sheet at fair value at the end of each reporting period. Gains and losses resulting from the change in fair value of investments held in Trust Account are included in Gain on investments held in Trust Account in the accompanying unaudited condensed statement of operations. The estimated fair values of investments held in the Trust Account are determined using available market information. The Company had $8,662,826 and $11,851,808 in investments held in the Trust Account which included $322,126 and $90,000 required deposit for extension as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.

Prepaid Expenses - Current

As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, prepaid expenses - current of $42,195 and $65,446 consist primarily of premiums for directors and officers’ liability insurance, which will be amortized over the agreement terms of three months and two-years, respectively.

Class A Ordinary Shares Subject to Possible Redemption

The Company’s Class A Ordinary Shares that were sold as part of the Units in the Initial Public Offering contain a redemption feature which allows for the redemption of such Public Shares in connection with the Company’s liquidation, or if there is a shareholder vote or tender offer in connection with the Company’s initial Business Combination. In accordance with ASC 480-10-S99, the Company classifies ordinary shares subject to redemption outside of permanent equity as the redemption provisions are not solely within the control of the Company. The Class A Ordinary Shares sold as part of the Units in the Initial Public Offering were issued with other freestanding instruments (i.e., Public Warrants) and as such, the initial carrying value of Class A Ordinary Shares classified as temporary equity will be the allocated proceeds determined in accordance with ASC 470-20. The Company recognizes changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and adjusts the carrying value of redeemable shares to equal the redemption value at the end of each

reporting period. Increases or decreases in the carrying amount of redeemable shares are affected by charges against additional paid-in capital, if any, and accumulated deficit.

Offering Costs associated with the Initial Public Offering and Sale of Private Placement Shares

The Company complies with the requirements of ASC 340-10-S99-1 and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 5A - Expenses of Offering. Offering costs consist principally of professional and registration fees incurred through the balance sheet date that are related to the Initial Public Offering. Offering costs directly attributable to the issuance of an equity contract to be classified in equity are recorded as a reduction in equity. Offering costs for equity contracts that are classified as assets and liabilities are expensed immediately. The Company incurred offering costs amounting to $9,088,588, consisting of $2,300,000 of cash underwriting fees, $5,175,000 of deferred underwriting fees and $1,613,588 of other offering costs. As such, the Company recorded $8,982,094 of offering costs as a reduction of temporary equity and $106,494 of offering costs as a reduction of permanent equity.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes under ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes, which prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. The Company’s management determined that the Cayman Islands is the Company’s major tax jurisdiction. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, there were no unrecognized tax benefits and no amounts accrued for interest and penalties. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals, or material deviation from its position.

The Company is considered to be an exempted Cayman Islands company with no connection to any other taxable jurisdiction and is presently not subject to income taxes or income tax filing requirements in the Cayman Islands, Italy or the United States. As such, the

Table of Contents

ALCHEMY INVESTMENTS ACQUISITION CORP 1

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 2025

(UNAUDITED)

Company’s tax provision was zero for the period presented. The Company’s management does not expect that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits will materially change over the next twelve months.

Net Income (loss) Per Ordinary Share

The Company complies with accounting and disclosure requirements of ASC Topic 260, Earnings Per Share. Net income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the period. Remeasurement associated with the redeemable Class A ordinary shares is excluded from net income per share as the redemption value approximates fair value. Therefore, the income per share calculation allocates income shared pro rata between Class A and Class B ordinary shares. As a result, the calculated net income per share is the same for redeemable Class A ordinary shares, non-redeemable Class A ordinary shares and Class B ordinary shares. The Company has not considered the effect of the Public Warrants to purchase an aggregate of 5,750,000 shares in the calculation of diluted net income per share, since the exercise of the warrants are contingent upon the occurrence of future events; and consequently, diluted income per share is the same as basic income per share for the periods presented.

The following table reflects the calculation of basic and diluted net income per ordinary share (in dollars, except per share amounts):


	Three Months Ended						Three Months Ended						Nine Months Ended						Nine Months Ended

Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist of a cash account in a financial institution which, at times may exceed the Federal depository insurance coverage of $250,000. The Company has not experienced losses on this account and management believes the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such account.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under FASB ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement (“ASC 820”), approximates the carrying amounts represented in the condensed balance sheet.

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received for sale of an asset or paid for transfer of a liability, in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. GAAP establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). These tiers include:

●

Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical instruments in active markets;

●

Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable such as quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and

●

Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions, such as valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value

Table of Contents

ALCHEMY INVESTMENTS ACQUISITION CORP 1

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 2025

(UNAUDITED)

drivers are unobservable. In some circumstances, the inputs used to measure fair value might be categorized within different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In those instances, the fair value measurement is categorized in its entirety in the fair value hierarchy based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

Derivative Financial Instruments

The Company evaluates its financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives in accordance with ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”). Derivative instruments are initially recorded at fair value on the grant date and re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the statements of operations. Derivative assets and liabilities are classified in the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement or conversion of the instrument could be required within 12 months of the balance sheet date.

Warrants

The Company accounts for warrants as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the warrant’s specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in ASC 480 and ASC 815. The assessment considers whether the warrants are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and whether the warrants meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the warrants are indexed to the Company’s own ordinary shares, among other conditions for equity classification. This assessment, which requires the use of professional judgment, is conducted at the time of warrant issuance and as of each subsequent quarterly period end date while the warrants are outstanding.

For issued or modified warrants that meet all of the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded as a component of additional paid-in capital at the time of issuance. For issued or modified warrants that do not meet all the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded as liabilities at their initial fair value on the date of issuance, and each balance sheet date thereafter. Changes in the estimated fair value of the warrants are recognized as a non-cash gain or loss on the statements of operations.

The Public and Private Warrants are not precluded from equity classification and have been accounted for as such since the date of issuance, and each balance sheet date thereafter as long as they continue to meet the requirements for equity classification.

Recent Accounting Standards

In November 2024, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2024-03, “Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses” (“ASU 2024-03”), which requires detailed disclosure in the notes to the financial statements of specific categories underlying certain expense captions on the income statement. ASU 2024-03 may be adopted prospectively or retrospectively and is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, with early adoption permitted.

Our management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards if currently adopted would have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements.

NOTE 3. INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING

The registration statement for the Company’s Initial Public Offering was declared effective on May 4, 2023. On May 9, 2023, the Company consummated the Initial Public Offering of 11,500,000 Units, including 1,500,000 Units issued pursuant to the exercise of the underwriter’s over-allotment option in full, generating gross proceeds of $115,000,000. Each Unit consisted of one Class A ordinary share and one-half of one redeemable warrant (“Public Warrant”). Each Public Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one Class A ordinary share at an exercise price of $11.50 per whole share (see Note 7).

(UNAUDITED)

NOTE 4. PRIVATE PLACEMENT

Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the sale of 538,000 Private Placement Shares at a price of $10.00 per share in a private placement to the Sponsor, including 45,000 Private Placement Shares issued pursuant to the exercise of the underwriter’s over-allotment option in full, generating gross proceeds of $5,380,000. In addition, the underwriter also purchased an aggregate of 57,500 Private Placement Shares, at a price of $10.00 per Private Placement Share, generating gross proceeds of $575,000. In aggregate, a total of 595,500 Private Placement Shares were purchased in the private placement at the closing of the Initial Public Offering. A portion of the proceeds from the sale of the Private Placement Shares were added to the net proceeds from the Initial Public Offering held in the Trust Account. If the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the proceeds from the sale of the Private Placement Shares held in the Trust Account will be used to fund the redemption of the Public Shares (subject to the requirements of applicable law) and the Private Placement Shares will likely be worthless.

Private Placement Shares are identical to the Class A Ordinary Shares included in the units sold in the Initial Public Offering, except that the Private Placement Shares: (i) are not transferable, assignable or salable until 30 days after the completion of our initial business combination and (ii) are entitled to registration rights.

The Sponsor, officers and directors have agreed to (i) waive their redemption rights with respect to any Private Placement Shares held by them in connection with the completion of our initial Business Combination, (ii) waive their redemption rights with respect to any Private Placement Shares held by them in connection with a shareholder vote to approve an amendment to our Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association (A) to modify the substance or timing of our obligation to allow redemption in connection with our initial Business Combination or certain amendments to our charter prior thereto or to redeem 100% of our Public Shares if we do not complete our initial Business Combination within 18 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering or (B) with respect to any other material provisions relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-initial Business Combination activity, (iii) waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to any Private Placement Shares held by them if we fail to complete our initial Business Combination within 18 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering and (iv) vote any Private Placement Shares held by them in favor of our initial Business Combination.

NOTE 5. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Founder Shares

On December 6, 2021, the Sponsor acquired 4,312,500 founder shares (the “Founder Shares”) for an aggregate purchase price of $50,000 (or approximately $0.01 per share) which was settled by paying for certain expenses on behalf of the Company. This $50,000 was paid by Deeptech Early Investors LLC on behalf of the Sponsor. Prior to the initial investment in the company of $50,000 by the Sponsor, the Company had no assets, tangible or intangible. As used herein, unless the context otherwise requires, “Founder Shares” shall be deemed to include the Class A Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion thereof. The per share purchase price of the Founder Shares was determined by dividing the amount of cash contributed to the company by the aggregate number of Founder Shares issued. Upon issuance, there were 562,500 Founder Shares subjected to forfeiture if the over-allotment option was not exercised in full or in part by our underwriter. In connection with the December 6, 2021 issuance, the Company repurchased and cancelled the 4,312,500 Founder Shares previously issued to a related party for a purchase price of $25,000.

On October 26, 2022, 287,500 Founder Shares were surrendered by our Sponsor for no consideration. These shares were then cancelled by the Company resulting in a decrease in the total number of Founder Shares outstanding from 4,312,500 shares to 4,025,000 shares. On February 7, 2023, 1,150,000 Founder Shares were surrendered and thereupon cancelled by the Company resulting in a decrease in the total number of founder shares outstanding from 4,025,000 shares to 2,875,000 shares. Upon cancellation, 375,000 Founder Shares were subject to forfeiture if the over-allotment option was not exercised in full or in part by our underwriter. All share amounts and related information have been retroactively restated to reflect the surrenders and cancellations. On May 9, 2023, the full over-allotment option was exercised, and therefore, the 375,000 Founder Shares are no longer subject to forfeiture.

The Founder Shares will automatically convert into shares of the Company’s Class A Ordinary Shares at any time at the option of the holders thereof or on the first business day following the completion of the initial Business Combination at a ratio such that the number

(UNAUDITED)

of shares of the Class A Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion of all Founder Shares will equal, in the aggregate, on an as-converted basis, 20.0% of the sum of (i) the total number of shares of the Public Shares issued and outstanding upon completion of the Initial Public Offering, plus (ii) the sum of (a) the total number of shares of the Company’s ordinary shares issued or deemed issued or issuable upon conversion or exercise of any equity-linked securities or deemed issued by the Company in connection with or in relation to the completion of the initial Business Combination, excluding (1) any shares of the Company’s Class A Ordinary Shares or equity-linked securities exercisable or exchangeable for or convertible into shares of the Company’s Class A Ordinary Shares issued, or to be issued, to any seller in the initial Business Combination and (2) any shares issued to the Sponsor, officers or directors upon conversion of working capital loans, minus (b) the number of Public Shares redeemed by Public Shareholders in connection with the initial Business Combination.

Promissory Notes - Related Party

On June 24, 2024 and November 20, 2024, the Sponsor agreed to loan the Company an aggregate of up to $530,000 and $600,000, respectively, to cover expenses related to the Initial Public Offering pursuant to a promissory note, as amended (the “Promissory Notes”). These loans bear ten (10%) percent interest per annum and are payable on the consummation of the Company’s initial merger, stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, recapitalization, reorganization, or similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities (a “Business Combination”). If a Business Combination is not consummated, the Notes will be repaid solely to the extent that the Maker has funds available to it outside of its trust account established in connection with its initial public offering of its securities, and that all other amounts will be contributed to capital, forfeited, eliminated, or otherwise forgiven or eliminated. On July 24, 2025 and August 25, 2025, the Sponsor agreed to loan the Company another $130,000 and $450,000 respectively, with the same loan terms as the June 24, 2024 promissory note. The outstanding balance under the Promissory Notes were $1,710,000 and $530,000 as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.

As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we had $119,553 and $27,972 of related party accrued interest expenses.

Administrative Support Agreement

The Company entered into an agreement commencing on May 4, 2023 through the earlier of the consummation of a Business Combination or the Company’s liquidation, to pay Alchemy Investment Management LLC, an affiliate of the Sponsor, a monthly fee of $10,000 for secretarial and administrative services. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, there were $17,097 and $197,087 in accrued expenses - related party for expenses incurred under this agreement, respectively.

Working Capital Loans

In addition, in order to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor, or certain of the Company’s officers and directors 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. The Working Capital Loans would either be repaid upon consummation of a Business Combination or, at the lender’s discretion, up to $1,500,000 of such Working Capital Loans may be convertible into shares of the post Business Combination entity at a price of $10.00 per share. 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. To date, the Company has had no borrowings under the Working Capital Loans.

NOTE 6. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Registration Rights

The holders of Founder Shares, Private Placement Shares and shares issued upon conversion of Working Capital Loans, if any, are entitled to registration rights pursuant to a registration rights agreement executed upon May 4, 2023. These holders are entitled to certain demand and “piggyback” registration rights. However, the registration rights agreement provides that the Company will not be required to effect or permit any registration or cause any registration statement to become effective until termination of the applicable lock-up period. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.

Underwriting Agreement

Simultaneously with the Initial Public Offering, the Underwriter fully exercised the over-allotment option to purchase an additional 1,500,000 Units at an offering price of $10.00 per Unit for an aggregate purchase price of $15,000,000.

The Underwriter was paid a cash underwriting discount of $0.20 per Unit, or $2,300,000 in the aggregate, upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering. In addition, $0.45 per unit, or $5,175,000 in the aggregate will be payable to the Underwriter for deferred underwriting commissions. The deferred fee will become payable to the Underwriter from the amounts held in the Trust Account solely in the event that the Company completes a Business Combination, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement.

Underwriter Shares

Upon closing of the Initial Public Offering, the underwriters purchased 57,500 Class A ordinary shares (“Underwriter Shares”). The underwriters have agreed not to transfer, assign or sell the Underwriter Shares until the completion of the initial Business Combination. In addition, the underwriters have agreed (i) to waive its redemption rights with respect to the Underwriter Shares in connection with the completion of the initial Business Combination and (ii) to waive its rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to the Underwriter Shares if the Company fails to complete its initial Business Combination within 12 months (or up to 18 months if the Company extends such period) from the closing of the Initial Public Offering.

NOTE 7. SHAREHOLDERS’ DEFICIT

each case that the Company has an effective registration statement under the Securities Act covering the Class A Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants and a current prospectus relating to them is available and such shares are registered, qualified or exempt from registration under the securities, or blue sky, laws of the state of residence of the holder (or holders are permitted to exercise their warrants on a cashless basis under certain circumstances as a result of the Company’s failure to have an effective registration statement by the 60th business day after the closing of the initial Business Combination). The Company has agreed that as soon as practicable after the closing of its initial Business Combination, the Company will use its best efforts to file with the SEC and have an effective registration statement covering the Class A Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants and will use its best efforts to cause the same to become effective and to maintain a current prospectus relating to those Class A Ordinary Shares until the warrants expire or are redeemed. If the shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants are not registered under the Securities Act by the 60th business day following the closing of its initial Business Combination, the Company will be required to permit holders to exercise their warrants on a cashless basis. However, no warrant will be exercisable for cash or on a cashless basis, and the Company will not be obligated to issue any shares to holders seeking to exercise their warrants, unless the issuance of the shares upon such exercise is registered or qualified under the securities laws of the state of the exercising holder, or an exemption from registration is available.

(b) The Public Warrants have an exercise price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustments, and will expire five years after the completion of a Business Combination or earlier upon redemption or liquidation. In addition, if for capital raising purposes related to the closing of an initial Business Combination: (i) the Company issues equity or equity-linked securities at an issue price or with an exercise or conversion price, of less than $10.00 per Class A Ordinary Share (as adjusted for share splits, share dividends, rights issuances, subdivisions, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) (such price the “Minimum Issue Price”); or (ii) the target entity (the “Target”) issues equity or equity-linked securities which, following the closing of the initial Business Combination, entitles the holder to receive equity or equity-linked securities of the post-initial Business Combination company (the “Combined Company”) at an issue price or with an exercise or conversion price of less than the Minimum Issue Price; or (iii) the Company, the Sponsor or the Target, directly or indirectly, enters into an arrangement to transfer to any third-party investor securities, cash or other property to effectively reduce the issue price, or exercise price or conversion price, as applicable, to a price less than the Minimum Issue Price; then the exercise price of the warrants will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 115% of the greater of (x) the volume weighted average reported last sale price of the shares of the Combined Company on the principal market on which the shares are then traded during the measurement period of the 30 consecutive trading days commencing 150 days following the closing of the Business Combination (the “Measurement Period”) and (y) $3.00 (such price, the “Adjusted Warrant Exercise Price”); provided, however, that in no case may the adjusted warrant exercise price be greater than $11.50. In addition, in the event the exercise price of the warrants is adjusted as provided above, the $18.00 per share redemption trigger price will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to the Adjusted Warrant Exercise Price plus $6.50 (such adjusted redemption trigger price, the “New Redemption Trigger Price”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the adjustment above shall not take into account any issuance of shares of the Combined Company to the Sponsor or its affiliates pursuant to the conversion of Founder Shares issued to the Sponsor prior to our initial public offering. Any determination as to whether the conditions above have been met shall be determined in good faith by the board of directors of the Combined Company based on the information known to the board of directors of the Combined Company at the time of the consummation of the initial Business Combination; the board of directors shall be entitled to rely on the information provided to it without further inquiry. Following the determination by the board of directors, the Combined Company shall provide prompt public notice of the Adjusted Warrant Exercise Price and the New Redemption Trigger Price when and as determined.

Redemption of warrants when the price per share of Class A Ordinary Shares equals or exceeds $18.00: Once the warrants become exercisable, the Company may redeem the outstanding warrants:

●

in whole and not in part;

●

at a price of $0.01 per Public Warrant;

●

upon a minimum of 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption; and

Table of Contents

●

if, and only if the last reported sale price of Class A Ordinary Shares on each day of the Measurement Period ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which the Company sends the notice of redemption to the warrant holders equals or exceeds $18.00 per share (as adjusted).

The Company will not redeem the warrants as described above unless an effective registration statement under the Securities Act covering the Class A Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants is effective and a current prospectus relating to those shares of Class A Ordinary Shares is available throughout the Measurement Period. Any such exercise would not be on a cashless basis and would require the exercising warrant holder to pay the exercise price for each warrant being exercised.

In no event will the Company be required to net cash settle any warrant. If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period or during any Extension Period and the Company liquidates the funds held in the Trust Account, holders of warrants will not receive any of such funds with respect to their warrants, nor will they receive any distribution from the Company’s assets held outside of the Trust Account with the respect to such warrants. Accordingly, the warrants may expire worthless.

The Company accounts for the 5,750,000 Public Warrants issued in connection with the Initial Public Offering in accordance with the guidance contained in ASC 815-40. Such guidance provides that the warrants described above are not precluded from equity classification. Equity-classified contracts are initially measured at fair value (or allocated value). Subsequent changes in fair value are not recognized as long as the contracts continue to be classified in equity. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, there were 5,750,000 Public Warrants outstanding.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 2025

(UNAUDITED)

NOTE 10. SEGMENT

ASC Topic 280. “Segment Reporting,” establishes standards for companies to report in their financial statement information about operating segments, products, services, geographic areas, and major customers. Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise for which separate financial information is available that is regularly evaluated by the Company’s chief operating decision maker, or group, in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance.

The Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) has been identified as the Co-Chief Executive Officer, Mattia Tomba, who reviews the operating results for the Company as a whole to make decisions about allocating resources and assessing financial performance. Accordingly, management has determined that the Company only has one operating segment. When evaluating the Company’s performance and making key decisions regarding resource allocation the CODM reviews several key metrics, which include the following:


	Three Months		Three Months		Nine Months		Nine Months
	Ended		Ended		Ended		Ended
	September		September		September		September
	30, 2025		30, 2024		30, 2025		30, 2024
Operating and formation costs	$	428,114	$	158,154	$	1,150,604	$	601,170
Gain on investments held in Trust Account	$	119,784	$	1,609,935	$	370,226	$	4,775,370

The key measures of segment profit or loss reviewed by our CODM are Gain on investments held in Trust Account and Operating and formation costs. The CODM reviews Gain on investments held in Trust Account to measure and monitor shareholder value and determine the most effective strategy of investment with the Trust Account funds while maintaining compliance with the trust agreement. Operating and formation costs are reviewed and monitored by the CODM to manage and forecast cash to ensure enough capital is available to complete a business combination within the business combination period. The CODM also reviews Operating and formation costs to manage, maintain, and enforce all contractual agreements to ensure costs are aligned with all agreements and budgets.

NOTE 11. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

The Company evaluated subsequent events and transactions that occurred after the unaudited condensed balance sheet date up to the date that the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements were issued. Based upon this review, other than below, the Company did not identify any subsequent events that would have required adjustment or disclosure in the financial statements.

References to our “management” or our “management team” refer to our officers and directors, and references to the “Sponsor” refer to Alchemy DeepTech Capital LLC. The following discussion and analysis of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto contained elsewhere in this Quarterly Report. Certain information contained in the discussion and analysis set forth below includes forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties.

Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and Section 21E of the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) that are not historical facts, and involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expected and projected. All statements, other than statements of historical fact included in this Report including, without limitation, statements under “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” regarding the Company’s 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 “expect,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “estimate,” “seek” and variations and similar words and expressions, as they relate to us or the Company’s 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. A number of factors could cause actual events, performance or results to differ materially from the events, performance and results discussed in the forward-looking statements. The Company’s securities filings can be accessed on the EDGAR section of the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. Except as expressly required by applicable securities law, the Company disclaims any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Overview

We are a blank check company incorporated in the Cayman Islands on October 27, 2021 formed for the purpose of entering into a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses. We have not selected any business combination target. We intend to effectuate our initial business combination using cash from the proceeds of our initial public offering (the “Initial Public Offering”) and the sale of the private placement shares, 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 or other sources.

Proposed Business Combination

On August 22, 2025, Alchemy Investments Acquisition Corp 1, a Cayman Islands exempted company limited by shares (“ALCY”), entered into a business combination agreement, by and among Alchemy Acquisition Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of the ALCY (“Pubco”), Alchemy Merger Sub, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly-owned subsidiary of Pubco, Cartiga, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Cartiga”), and Halle Benett, as the representative of holders of Cartiga’s securities, as further described in Note 1 to the financial statement included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The proposed transaction is expected to close in the first quarter of 2026, following the receipt of the required approval by the Company’s shareholders and the fulfillment of customary closing conditions.

Results of Operations

We have neither engaged in any operations nor generated any revenues to date. Our only activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 were financing activities, organizational activities, those necessary to prepare for our Initial Public Offering, described below, and those related to the search for a potential business combination target. We do not expect to generate any operating revenues until after the completion of our initial business combination. 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 ended September 30, 2025, we had a net loss of $341,897, which resulted from operating costs of $428,114, offset by a gain on investments held in the Trust Account $119,784, dividend income of $1,514 and related party interest expense of $35,081.

Table of Contents

For the three months ended September 30, 2024, we had net income of $1,456,069, which resulted from operating costs of $158,154, offset by a gain on investments held in the Trust Account of $1,609,935, and dividend income of $4,288.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, we had net loss of $863,650, which resulted from operating costs of $1,150,604, offset by a gain on investments held in the Trust Account of $370,226, dividend income of $8,309 and related party interest expense of $91,581.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, we had net income of $4,183,639, which resulted from operating costs of $601,170, offset by a gain on investments held in the Trust Account of $4,775,370, and dividend income of $9,439.

Liquidity, Capital Resources and Going Concern

For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, net cash used in operating activities was $1,041,916, which was due to our net loss of $863,650, offset by a gain on investments held in the Trust Account of $370,226 and changes in working capital of $191,960.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, net cash used in operating activities was $500,104, which was due to our net income of $4,183,639, offset by a gain on investments held in the Trust Account of $4,775,370 and changes in working capital of $91,627.

There were no cash flows from investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, net cash provided by financing activities was $1,180,000, which was due to the proceeds from the promissory note, related party.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, net cash provided by financing activities was $530,000, which was due to the proceeds from the promissory note, related party.

On May 9, 2023, the Company consummated the Initial Public Offering of 11,500,000 units, (the “Units” and, with respect to the Class A ordinary shares included in the Units sold, the “Public Shares”), including 1,500,000 Units issued pursuant to the exercise of the underwriter’s over-allotment option in full, generating gross proceeds of $115,000,000, which is discussed in Note 3.

As of September 30, 2025, the Company had $319,258 in cash and cash equivalents held outside of the Trust Account and a working capital deficit of $3,049,242.

The Company has incurred and expects to continue to incur significant costs in pursuit of the Company’s financing and acquisition plans. The Company anticipates that the cash held outside of the Trust Account as of September 30, 2025 will not be sufficient to allow the Company to operate for at least one year from the date these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are issued, and therefore substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern exists. Management plans to address this uncertainty with the successful closing of a Business Combination. The Company had until November 9, 2024 to consummate a Business Combination. If a Business Combination was not consummated by November 9, 2024, there would be a mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution of the Company. The Company was in the process of identifying a potential company for an initial Business Combination but required additional time. An Annual Meeting was held on October 31, 2024 and the shareholders of the Company approved amending the Company’s Articles of Association as a special resolution, giving the Company the right to extend from November 9, 2024 (the “Current Termination Date”) for an additional three months until February 9, 2025, and thereafter on a month-to-month basis, as determined by the Directors in their sole discretion, until September 9, 2025.

Table of Contents

until September 9, 2026, (the “Extended Date”) by placing into the trust account at Continental Stock & Transfer Company, the lesser of $30,000 or $0.03 per non-redeemed public Class A ordinary share per month (which amount came to $22,126.29), until September 9, 2026 – the date by which, if the Company has not consummated its initial Business Combination, the Company must liquidate and dissolve.

On November 5, 2024, the Company made a deposit of $90,000 into the trust account as required for the three-month extension until February 9, 2025. The Company continued to deposit an additional $232,126 through September 2025, and will continue to deposit the lesser of $30,000 or $0.03 per non-redeemed public Class A ordinary share each month until the expiration of the extension in September 9, 2026. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, investments held in the Trust Account included $322,126 and $90,000, respectively, for amounts held for extension.

Contractual Obligations

There are both $5,175,000 of deferred underwriting fees, as well as an aggregate of up to $1,710,000 in promissory notes due upon the completion of the Company’s business combination.

Off Balance Sheet Financing Arrangements

We have no obligations, assets or liabilities that would be considered off-balance sheet arrangements as of September 30, 2025.

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.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the 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 consolidated financial statements, and income and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates.

We have not identified critical accounting estimates.

Recent Accounting Standards

Our management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards if currently adopted would have a material effect on the accompanying 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

Table of Contents

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 consolidated 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 Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding mandatory audit firm rotation or a supplement to the auditor’s report providing additional information about the audit and the consolidated 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.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and are not required to provide the information otherwise required under this item.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Disclosure controls are procedures that are designed with the objective of ensuring that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act, such as this Report, is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time period specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls are also designed with the objective of ensuring that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our management evaluated, with the participation of our current chief executive officer and chief financial officer (our “Certifying Officers”), the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2025, pursuant to Rule 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Based upon that evaluation, our Certifying Officers concluded that, as of September 30, 2025, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

Management’s Report on Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting

This Report does not include a report of management’s assessment regarding internal control over financial reporting or an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm due to a transition period established by rules of the SEC for newly public companies.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the most recent fiscal quarters that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

None.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

Except as set forth below, as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, there have been no material changes to the risk factors disclosed in our Prospectus in connection with the Initial Public Offering filed with the SEC on May 5, 2023. We may disclose changes to such factors or disclose additional factors from time to time in our future filings with the SEC.

We depend on a variety of U.S. and multi-national financial institutions to provide us with banking services. The default or failure of one or more of the financial institutions that we rely on may adversely affect our business and financial condition.

We maintain the majority of our cash and cash equivalents in accounts with major U.S. and multi-national financial institutions, and our deposits at certain of these institutions exceed insured limits. Market conditions can impact the viability of these institutions. In the event of the failure of any of the financial institutions where we maintain our cash and cash equivalents, there can be no assurance that we would be able to access uninsured funds in a timely manner or at all. Any inability to access or delay in accessing these funds could adversely affect our liquidity, business and financial condition.

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities

On December 6, 2021, the sponsor acquired 4,312,500 founder shares for an aggregate purchase price of $50,000 (or approximately $0.01 per share) which was settled by paying for certain expenses on behalf of the Company. On October 26, 2022, 287,500 founder shares were surrendered by our sponsor for no consideration. These shares were then cancelled by the Company resulting in a decrease in the total number of founder shares outstanding from 4,312,500 shares to 4,025,000 shares. On February 7, 2023, 1,150,000 founder shares were surrendered and thereupon cancelled by the company resulting in a decrease in the total number of founder shares outstanding from 4,025,000 shares to 2,875,000 shares. Upon cancellation, 375,000 founder shares were subjected to forfeiture if the over-allotment option was not exercised in full or in part by our underwriter. All share amounts and related information have been retroactively restated to reflect the surrenders and cancellations. On May 5, 2023, the full over-allotment option was exercised, and therefore, the 375,000 founder shares were no longer subject to forfeiture.

Simultaneously with the closing of the initial public offering, on May 9, 2023, we consummated the sale of and issued 538,000 and 57,500 placement shares to the sponsor and the representative, respectively, at a price of $10.00 per share, generating gross proceeds of $5,955,000.

These issuances were made pursuant to the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.

No underwriting discounts or commissions were paid with respect to such sales.

On October 22, 2024, the Company issued an aggregate of 2,874,999 shares of its Class A ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share to Alchemy Deeptech Capital LLC, (the “Sponsor”), and the holder of the Company’s Class B ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share, upon the conversion of an equal number of Class B Shares. The Class A Shares issued in connection with the Conversion are subject to the same restrictions as applied to the Class B Shares before the Conversion, including, among other things, certain transfer restrictions, waiver of redemption rights and the obligation to vote in favor of an initial business combination as described in the prospectus for our initial public offering. Following the Conversion, there are 14,970,499 Class A Shares and one Class B Share issued and outstanding.

Table of Contents

Use of Proceeds

In connection with the initial public offering, we incurred offering costs of $9,088,588 (including deferred underwriting commissions of $5,175,000). Other incurred offering costs consisted principally of preparation fees related to the initial public offering. After deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions (excluding the deferred portion, which amount will be payable upon consummation of the initial business combination, if consummated) and the initial public offering expenses, $116,725,000 of the net proceeds from our initial public offering and the sale of the placement shares were placed in the trust account.

There has been no material change in the planned use of the proceeds from the initial public offering and the sale of the placement shares as is described in the company’s final prospectus related to the initial public offering.

ITEM 3. DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES

None.

ITEM 4. MINE SAFETY DISCLOSURES

Not applicable.

ITEM 5. OTHER INFORMATION

During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, none of our directors or executive officers adopted or terminated any contract, instruction, or written plan for the purchase or sale of our securities to satisfy the affirmative defense conditions of Rule 10b5-1(c) or any “non-Rule 10b5-1 trading agreement,” as such term is defined in Item 408(a) of Regulation S-K.

For the nine months, the company posted a net loss of $863,650, compared with net income of $4,183,639 a year earlier, mainly due to higher operating costs and lower gains on trust investments.

How much cash and trust balance does ALCY have as of September 30, 2025?

As of September 30, 2025, ALCY held $319,258 in cash and cash equivalents outside the trust account for working capital and $8,662,826 in investments in its trust account, including $322,126 of extension deposits.

What is the Cartiga business combination that ALCY has agreed to?

On August 22, 2025, ALCY signed a Business Combination Agreement with Cartiga, LLC.

The deal values Cartiga’s equity at an Equity Value of $540,000,000, delivered in OpCo units and Pubco Class B voting non‑economic common stock.

What are the key conditions to closing the Cartiga–ALCY business combination?

Closing is subject to conditions including: (i) approval by ALCY shareholders and Cartiga members; (ii) no Company or Buyer Material Adverse Effect; (iii) expiration or termination of the Hart‑Scott‑Rodino waiting period; (iv) Available Closing Buyer Cash of at least $40,000,000 (unless waived by Cartiga); (v) Nasdaq approval of Pubco’s listing; and (vi) execution of specified ancillary agreements such as the Registration Rights Agreement, Tax Receivable Agreement and Shareholders Agreement.
