The reporting person beneficially owns 534,634 Business Combination Warrants, which, if exercised in full, would be equivalent to 21,385.36 ARQQ ordinary shares on a post-reverse stock split basis.

Business Combination Warrants financial
"Each Business Combination Warrant has an exercise price of $11.50"
reverse stock split financial
"announced the implementation of a reverse stock split whereby every 25 outstanding"
A reverse stock split reduces a company's number of outstanding shares while raising the price per share proportionally, so the total value of each investor's holding is unchanged; a 1-for-10 split turns 100 shares worth $1 each into 10 shares worth $10 each. Companies often do this to regain compliance with an exchange's minimum price rule or to attract investors who avoid very low-priced stocks.
beneficially owns financial
"The reporting person beneficially owns 534,634 Business Combination Warrants"
Beneficially owns means a person or entity enjoys the economic benefits and control of a security even if the legal title or registration is held in another name. Think of it like having the keys and profits from a car that is registered to a friend: you use it, benefit from it, and make decisions about it even though the official paperwork lists someone else. For investors, this matters because it reveals who truly controls shares, affects voting power, potential conflicts of interest, and regulatory disclosure obligations.
exercise price financial
"Each Business Combination Warrant has an exercise price of $11.50"
The exercise price is the fixed amount at which you can buy or sell an asset, like a stock, when using an options contract. It matters because it helps determine whether exercising the option will be profitable or not, depending on the current market price. Think of it as the set price you agree on today to buy or sell later.
