[10-Q] Columbus Acquisition Corp Unit Quarterly Earnings Report

Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Columbus Acquisition Corp is a Cayman Islands blank-check company that completed an IPO on January 24, 2025, raising $60,000,000 from public units and $2,342,900 from a private placement. Proceeds are held primarily in a Trust Account with a demand deposit of $61,018,247, producing $1,018,247 of interest for the six months ended June 30, 2025. As of June 30, 2025 the Company reported total assets of $61,836,356, cash of $761,463 and working capital of $719,917. For the six months, net income was $612,414, driven by trust interest, partially offset by $405,833 of general and administrative expenses. The capital structure includes 6,000,000 ordinary shares subject to possible redemption and 1,944,290 non-redeemable ordinary shares, for a total of 7,944,290 ordinary shares outstanding. Management discloses substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern if it cannot complete an initial business combination by January 22, 2026. The Sponsor forfeited 225,000 Founder Shares on March 10, 2025, and related-party financing and potential working capital loans remain available but not committed.

Positive

• Successful IPO and Private Placement raising aggregate gross proceeds of $62,342,900 ($60,000,000 public; $2,342,900 private).
• $61,018,247 held in a Trust Account invested in permitted short-term U.S. government instruments, producing $1,018,247 interest for six months.
• Net income of $612,414 for the six months ended June 30, 2025 driven by trust interest, improving reported results versus prior loss periods.
• Working capital of $719,917 and cash outside the Trust of $761,463 to fund search and administrative activities.

Negative

• Substantial doubt about going concern disclosed if the Company cannot complete an initial business combination by January 22, 2026.
• 6,000,000 ordinary shares are subject to possible redemption and are presented as temporary equity at a redemption value of $61,018,247, constraining permanent equity.
• No operating revenues and no identified target; the Company will not have operating revenue until after a business combination.
• Dependence on Sponsor and related-party financing options which are available but not committed, creating financing and execution risk.

Insights

Financial Analyst

TL;DR Positive liquidity from IPO funds and trust interest, but no operating revenue and a one-year combination deadline create material execution risk.

The Company successfully raised aggregate gross proceeds of $62.3 million including the public IPO and Private Placement, and has $61.0 million held in a Trust Account earning meaningful interest ($1.02 million six months). Those funds provide capital to pursue a business combination, and generated a six-month net income of $612,414. However, Columbus has no operating revenue, limited cash outside the Trust ($761,463), and must complete a qualifying business combination by January 22, 2026 or liquidate, which places substantial reliance on management execution and potential additional financing.

Corporate Governance Expert

TL;DR Sponsor control features, related-party arrangements and founder forfeiture raise governance and alignment questions before a business combination.

The Sponsor retains meaningful influence through Founder Shares and private units, and issued Representative Shares to underwriters as compensation. The Sponsor provided a promissory note that was repaid at IPO and may provide working capital loans in future, creating potential related-party dependence. The forfeiture of 225,000 Founder Shares was reflected retroactively, and registration, lock-up and voting arrangements for Founder, Representative and Private Placement shares are explicit in the filing, which investors should note when assessing governance and control of post-combination ownership and incentives.

COLUMBUS ACQUISITION CORP
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

June 30, 2025

Note 1 — Organization, Business Operation and Going Concern Consideration

Columbus Acquisition Corp (the “Company”) is a blank check company incorporated in the Cayman Islands on January 18, 2024. The Company was formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities (the “Business Combination”). The Company’s efforts to identify a prospective target business will not be limited to a particular industry or geographic location. The Company does not have any specific business combination under consideration. The Company’s significant ties to China would make it a less attractive partner to a non-China-based target company and such perception may potentially limit or negatively impact our search for an initial business combination; or may therefore make it more likely for the Company to consummate a business combination with a company being based in or having the majority of the company’s operations in China. The Company has selected December 31 as its fiscal year end.

As of June 30, 2025, the Company had not commenced any operations. For the period from January 18, 2024 (inception) through June 30, 2025, the Company’s efforts had been limited to organizational activities as well as activities related to completing the initial public offering (“IPO”) described below, and subsequent to the IPO, identifying a target company for 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 dividend and/or interest income from the proceeds derived from the IPO and sale of Private Placement Units (as defined below).

The Company’s management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the IPO and the sale of the Private Placements Units, 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’s founder and sponsor is Hercules Capital Management VII Corp, a British Virgin Islands company (the “Sponsor”). The Company’s ability to commence operations was contingent upon obtaining adequate financial resources through the IPO (see Note 3) and a Private Placement (as defined below) to the initial shareholder (see Note 4).

On January 24, 2025, the Company consummated its IPO of 6,000,000 units (“Units”). Each Unit consists of one ordinary share, $0.0001 par value per share, and one right to receive of one-seventh of one ordinary share upon the completion of the initial Business Combination. The Units were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per Unit, generating total gross proceeds of $60,000,000. The Company has also granted the underwriters a 45-day option to purchase up to an additional 900,000 Units to cover over-allotments, if any (see Note 3).

Simultaneously with the consummation of the IPO and the sale of the Units, the Company consummated the private placement (“Private Placement”) of 234,290 units (the “Private Placement Units”) to the Sponsor, at a price of $10.00 per Private Placement Unit, generating total proceeds of $2,342,900, which is described in Note 4.

Transaction costs amounted to $1,587,534 consisting of $900,000 of underwriting commissions which were paid in cash at the closing date of the IPO, $361,000 of the Representative Shares (discussed below), and $326,534 of other offering costs. At the IPO date, cash of $1,007,756 (which is net of funds used to repay the then outstanding balance of the Promissory Note described in Note 5) was held outside of the Trust Account (as defined below) and is available for working capital purposes.

In conjunction with the IPO, the Company issued to the underwriter 210,000 ordinary shares (the “Representative Shares”), which are nonredeemable. The fair value of the Representative Shares accounted for as compensation under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 718, “Compensation – Stock Compensation” (“ASC 718”) is included in the offering costs. The estimated fair value of the Representative Shares as of the IPO date totaled $361,000. 

5

The Company’s initial Business Combination must occur with one or more target businesses that together have an aggregate fair market value of at least 80% of the balance in the Trust Account (as defined below), (less any taxes payable on the income earned on the Trust Account) at the time of execution of the definitive agreement in connection with its initial Business Combination. However, the Company will only complete a Business Combination if the post-transaction company owns or acquires 50% or more of the outstanding voting securities of the target or otherwise acquires a controlling interest in the target sufficient for the post-transaction company not to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”). The Company does not believe that its anticipated principal activities will subject the Company to the Investment Company Act. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to complete a Business Combination successfully.

Upon the closing of the IPO, management has agreed that at least $10.00 per public share underlying Units sold in the IPO will be held in a U.S.-based trust account (“Trust Account”). The funds held in the Trust Account will be invested only in U.S. government treasury bills with a maturity of 185 days or less, or in money market funds meeting the applicable conditions of Rule 2a-7 promulgated under the Investment Company Act which invest solely in direct U.S. government treasury securities, or in an interest bearing or non-interest-bearing demand deposit account. Except with respect to dividend and/or interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account that may be released to the Company to pay the Company’s tax obligation, if any, the proceeds from the IPO and the sale of the Private Placement Units that are deposited and held in the Trust Account will not be released from the Trust Account until the earliest to occur of (i) the completion of the Company’s initial Business Combination, (ii) the redemption of any public shares properly tendered in connection with a shareholder vote to amend the Company’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association to (A) modify the substance or timing of obligation to redeem 100% of the Company’s public shares if the Company does not complete the Company’s initial Business Combination by January 22, 2026 (unless the Company extends such period by amending its Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association) or (B) with respect to any other provision relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-business combination activity and (iii) the redemption of all of the Company’s public shares if the Company is unable to complete its initial business combination by January 22, 2026, subject to applicable law. In no other circumstances will a public shareholder have any right or interest of any kind to or in the Trust Account.

The Company will provide its public shareholders with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their public shares upon either (i) the completion of the initial Business Combination, (ii) if the Company is unable to complete the initial Business Combination within the prescribed combination period, subject to applicable law, or (iii) a shareholder vote to amend the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association (A) to modify the substance or timing of the obligation to redeem 100% of the public shares if the Company has not consummated an initial Business Combination within the prescribed combination period or (B) with respect to any other material provisions relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-initial business combination activity.

The Company has determined not to consummate any Business Combination unless the Company has net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001 upon such consummation in order to avoid being subject to Rule 419 promulgated under the Securities Act. However, if the Company seeks to consummate an initial Business Combination with a target business that imposes any type of working capital closing condition or requires the Company to have a minimum amount of funds available from the Trust Account upon consummation of such initial Business Combination, its net tangible asset threshold may limit the Company’s ability to consummate such initial Business Combination (as the Company may be required to have a lesser number of shares redeemed) and may force the Company to seek third party financing which may not be available on terms acceptable to the Company or at all. As a result, the Company may not be able to consummate such an initial Business Combination and the Company may not be able to locate another suitable target within the applicable time period, if at all.

The Company will have until January 22, 2026 to complete its initial Business Combination. If the Company is unable to complete its initial Business Combination by January 22, 2026, unless the Company extends such period by amending its Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, the Company will: (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem the public shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay our taxes (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then outstanding public shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public 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 its remaining shareholders and its board of directors, liquidate and dissolve, subject in each case to its obligations under Cayman Islands 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 public rights or private placement rights, which will expire worthless if the Company fails to complete its initial Business Combination by January 22, 2026, unless the Company extends such period by amending and restating its Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association.

Going Concern Consideration

As of June 30, 2025, the Company had $761,463 cash and a working capital of $719,917. The Company has incurred and expects to continue to incur significant costs to remain as a publicly traded company and to incur significant transaction costs in pursuit of the consummation of a Business Combination. The Company does not believe it will need to raise additional funds in order to meet the expenditures required for operating its business. However, if the Company’s estimate of the costs of identifying a target business, undertaking in-depth due diligence and negotiating a Business Combination are less than the actual amount necessary to do so, the Company may have insufficient funds available to operate its business prior to the initial Business Combination. Moreover, the Company may need to obtain additional financing either to complete its Business Combination or because it becomes obligated to redeem a significant number of the Company’s public shares upon completion of its Business Combination, in which case the Company may issue additional securities or incur debt in connection with such Business Combination.

In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with ASC Subtopic 205-40, Presentation of Financial Statements - Going Concern, the Company may need to raise additional capital through loans or additional investments from its Sponsor, shareholders, officers, directors, or third parties. The Company’s officers, directors and Sponsor may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds, from time to time or at any time, in whatever amount they deem reasonable in their sole discretion, to meet the Company’s working capital needs. Accordingly, the Company may not be able to obtain additional financing. If the Company is unable to raise additional capital, it may be required to take additional measures to conserve liquidity, which could include, but not necessarily be limited to, curtailing operations, suspending the pursuit of a potential transaction, and reducing overhead expenses. The Company cannot provide any assurance that new financing will be available to it on commercially acceptable terms, if at all.

The Company’s liquidity condition raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of time within one year after the date that the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements are issued. Management plans to address this uncertainty through seeking new financing to complete a Business Combination. If a Business Combination is not consummated by the end of the Combination Period, currently January 22, 2026, and the Combination Period is not extended, there will be a mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution of the Company, which also raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. No adjustments have been made to the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities should the Company be required to liquidate after the Combination Period. The Company intends to complete the initial Business Combination before the end of the Combination Period. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to consummate any Business Combination by the end of the Combination Period.

Risks and Uncertainties

Various social and political circumstances in the U.S. and around the world (including rising trade tensions between the U.S. and China, and other uncertainties regarding actual and potential shifts in the U.S. and foreign, trade, economic and other policies with other countries), may contribute to increased market volatility and economic uncertainties or deterioration in the U.S. and worldwide.

As a result of these circumstances and the ongoing Russia/Ukraine, Hamas/Israel conflicts and/or other future global conflicts, 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. In addition, 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 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. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

Note 2 — Significant accounting policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements are presented in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. In the opinion of management, all adjustments consisting of normal recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial statements, have been included. Interim results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected through December 31, 2025 or for any future periods. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with the SEC on March 31, 2025. The accompanying condensed balance sheet as of December 31, 2024 has been derived from the audited balance sheet included in the Form 10-K.

Emerging Growth Company Status

The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, (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 auditor 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 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 a comparison of the Company’s 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 the financial statement in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. 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 financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events.

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 June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company had $761,463 and $0 in cash, respectively, and none in cash equivalents for both periods.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist of cash accounts in a financial institution, which, at times in the future, may exceed the Federal Depository Insurance Coverage of $250,000. Any loss incurred or a lack of access to such funds could have a significant adverse impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company has not experienced losses on these accounts.

8

Demand Deposit in Trust Account

Upon closing of the IPO, the Company invested the proceeds into an interest-bearing demand deposit account, which comprised the entire balance of the Trust Account as of June 30, 2025 and earned $614,514 and $1,018,247 of interest income during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively.

Offering Costs Associated with the IPO

Offering costs were $1,587,534 consisting principally of underwriting, legal and other expenses incurred through the balance sheet date that were related to the IPO and were charged to shareholders’ equity upon the completion of the IPO. The Company complies with the requirements of the ASC 340-10-S99-1 and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) Topic 5A - “Expenses of Offering”. The Company allocates offering costs among public shares, public rights and Private Units based on the relative fair values of public shares, public rights and Private Units and all offering costs were recognized by the Company during the three months ended March 31, 2025. Accordingly, $1,538,521 was allocated to public shares and charged to temporary equity, and $49,013 was allocated to public rights and Private Units and charged to shareholders’ equity.

Net income (loss) Per Ordinary Share

The Company complies with accounting and disclosure requirements of FASB ASC 260, Earnings Per Share. The unaudited condensed statements of operations include a presentation of income (loss) per redeemable share and income (loss) per non-redeemable share following the two-class method of income per share because redemption of the redeemable shares is not at fair value pursuant to the guidance in ASC 480-10-S99. Net (loss) income per ordinary share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period. The Company has elected to treat only the portion of the periodic adjustment to the carrying amount of the redeemable shares that reflects a redemption in excess of fair value like a dividend. As such, income or loss allocable to each class of ordinary share is not adjusted for the accretion of carrying value to redemption value.

The calculation of diluted income per ordinary share does not consider the effect of the rights issued in connection with the IPO and the Private Units since the exercise of the rights is contingent upon the occurrence of future events. As of June 30, 2025, the Company did not have any dilutive securities or other contracts that could, potentially, be exercised or converted into ordinary shares that then share in the earnings of the Company. As a result, diluted net income (loss) per ordinary share is the same as basic net income (loss) per ordinary share for the periods presented.

The net income (loss) per share presented in the unaudited condensed statements of operations is based on the following: 

		Three Months Ended June 30, 2025								Three Months Ended June 30, 2024
		Redeemable Ordinary Shares				Non-redeemable Ordinary Shares				Redeemable Ordinary Shares				Non-redeemable Ordinary Shares
Basic and diluted net income (loss) per ordinary share
Numerator:
Allocation of net income (loss)		$	349,394			$	113,221			$	—			$	(41,200	)
Denominator:
Basic and diluted weighted average shares outstanding			6,000,000				1,944,290				—				1,500,000	(1)
Basic and diluted net income (loss) per ordinary share		$	0.06			$	0.06			$	—			$	(0.03	)

		Six Months Ended June 30, 2025								For the Period from January 18, 2024 (Inception) Through June 30, 2024
		Redeemable Ordinary Shares				Non-redeemable Ordinary Shares				Redeemable Ordinary Shares				Non-redeemable Ordinary Shares
Basic and diluted net income (loss) per ordinary share
Numerator:
Allocation of net income (loss)		$	449,556			$	162,858			$	—			$	(48,039	)
Denominator:
Basic and diluted weighted average shares outstanding			5,204,420				1,885,379				—				1,500,000	(1)
Basic and diluted net income (loss) per ordinary share		$	0.09			$	0.09			$	—			$	(0.03	)

(1) Ordinary shares have been retroactively restated to reflect the Sponsor’s forfeiture of 225,000 Founder Shares on March 10, 2025 for no consideration as the underwriters of the IPO did not exercise the over-allotment option.

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 accompanying unaudited condensed balance sheet, primarily due to their short-term nature. 

The Company applies ASC 820, which establishes a framework for measuring fair value and clarifies the definition of fair value within that framework. ASC 820 defines fair value as an exit price, which is the price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the Company’s principal or most advantageous market in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The fair value hierarchy established in ASC 820 generally requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. Observable inputs reflect the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability and are developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity. Unobservable inputs reflect the entity’s own assumptions based on market data and the entity’s judgments about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability and are to be developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. The following fair value hierarchy is used to classify assets and liabilities based on the observable inputs and unobservable inputs used in order to value the assets and liabilities:

● Level 1—Assets and liabilities with unadjusted, quoted prices listed on active market exchanges. Inputs to the fair value measurement are observable inputs, such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

● Level 2—Inputs to the fair value measurement are determined using prices for recently traded assets and liabilities with similar underlying terms, as well as direct or indirect observable inputs, such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals.

● Level 3—Inputs to the fair value measurement are unobservable inputs, such as estimates, assumptions, and valuation techniques when little or no market data exists for the assets or liabilities.

Ordinary Shares Subject to Possible Redemption

The Company accounts for its ordinary shares subject to possible redemption issued in the IPO in accordance with the guidance in ASC Topic 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity” (ASC 480). Ordinary shares subject to mandatory redemption (if any) will be classified as a liability instrument and will be measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable ordinary shares (including ordinary shares that feature redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the Company’s control) will be classified as temporary equity. At all other times, ordinary shares will be classified as shareholders’ equity. 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. Given that the 6,000,000 ordinary shares sold as part of the Units in the IPO were issued with other freestanding instruments (i.e., share rights), the initial carrying value of ordinary shares classified as temporary equity was allocated to the proceeds determined in accordance with ASC 470-20. If it is probable that the equity instrument will become redeemable, the Company has the option to either (i) accrete changes in the redemption value over the period from the date of issuance (or from the date that it becomes probable that the instrument will become redeemable, if later) to the earliest redemption date of the instrument or (ii) recognize changes in the redemption value immediately as they occur and adjust the carrying amount of the instrument to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. The Company has elected to recognize the changes immediately. The initial accretion and subsequent remeasurements will be treated as a deemed dividend (i.e., a reduction to retained earnings, or in absence of retained earnings, additional paid-in capital).

Accordingly, as of June 30, 2025, ordinary shares subject to possible redemption are presented at redemption value as temporary equity, outside of permanent shareholders’ equity on the Company’s balance sheet in the following table:

		Shares				Amount
Gross proceeds from IPO			6,000,000			$	60,000,000
Less:
Proceeds allocated to Public Rights			—				(1,320,000	)
Allocation of offering costs related to redeemable shares			—				(1,538,521	)
Plus:
Accretion of carrying value to redemption value			—				3,876,768
Ordinary shares subject to possible redemption – June 30, 2025			6,000,000			$	61,018,247

Share Rights

The Company accounts for the Public Rights and private placement rights issued in connection with the IPO and the Private Placement in accordance with the guidance contained in FASB ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging”. Accordingly, upon completion of the IPO, the Company evaluated and classified the rights under equity treatment at their issuance date fair values, net of allocated offering costs.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes under ASC 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”). ASC 740 requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for both the expected impact of differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities and for the expected future tax benefit to be derived from tax loss and tax credit carry forwards. ASC 740 additionally requires a valuation allowance to be established when it is more likely than not that all or a portion of deferred tax assets will not be realized.

ASC 740 also clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position 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. ASC 740 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim period, disclosure and transition. Based on the Company’s evaluation, it has been concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in the Company’s financial statements.

11

The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. There were no unrecognized tax benefits and no amounts accrued for interest and penalties as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviation from its position.

There is currently no taxation imposed on income by the Government of the Cayman Islands. In accordance with Cayman Islands federal income tax regulations, income taxes are not levied on the Company. Consequently, income taxes are not reflected in the Company’s financial statements.

Stock-based Compensation

The Company recognizes compensation costs resulting from the issuance of stock-based awards to directors as an expense in the financial statement over the requisite service period based on a measurement of fair value for each stock-based award. The fair value is amortized as compensation cost on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the awards. The Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing model includes various assumptions, including the fair value of the estimated stock price of the Company, expected life of shares, the expected volatility and the expected risk-free interest rate, among others. These assumptions reflect the Company’s best estimates, but they involve inherent uncertainties based on market conditions generally outside the control of the Company.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

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

Note 3 — Initial Public Offering

On January 24, 2025, the Company sold 6,000,000 Units, at a price of $10.00 per Unit. Each Unit consists of one ordinary share, par value $0.0001 per share and one right (the “Public Right”). Each Public Right entitles the holder to purchase one-seventh (1/7) of one ordinary share upon the consummation of the Company’s initial Business Combination. The Company will not issue fractional shares. As a result, the holder must hold Public Rights in multiples of 7 in order to receive shares for all of their Public Rights upon closing of a Business Combination. Total offering costs allocated to the IPO proceeds were $1,538,521. The Company has also granted the underwriters a 45-day option to purchase up to an additional 900,000 units to cover over-allotments, if any;  which expired unexercised on March 10, 2025. The holders of the Units were granted the right to separately trade the ordinary shares and the Public Rights beginning on March 17, 2025.

Note 4 — Private Placement

Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, the Sponsor purchased an aggregate of 234,290 Private Placement Units at a price of $10.00 per Private Placement Unit for an aggregate purchase price of $2,342,900. Each Private Placement Unit was identical to the Units sold in the IPO, except as described below. Total offering costs allocated to the Private Placement Units were $9,453, which were charged directly to additional paid-in capital upon the completion of the IPO.

There will be no redemption rights or liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to the Founder Shares (as defined below), private placement shares or private placement rights. The rights will expire and worthless if the Company does not consummate a Business Combination by January 22, 2026, unless the Company extends the Business Combination period.

Each Private Placement Unit is identical to the Public Units sold in the IPO, except that it will not be transferable, assignable or salable by the Sponsor until the completion of the Company’s initial Business Combination, except in each case (i) among the insiders or to the Company’s insiders’ members, officers, directors, consultants or their affiliates, (ii) to a holder’s shareholders or members upon the holder’s liquidation, in each case if the holder is an entity, (iii) by bona fide gift to a member of the holder’s immediate family or to a trust, the beneficiary of which is the holder or a member of the holder’s immediate family, in each case for estate planning purposes, (iv) by virtue of the laws of descent and distribution upon death, (v) pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order, (vi) to the Company for no value for cancellation in connection with the consummation of a business combination, (vii) in connection with the consummation of a business combination, (viii) in the event of the Company’s liquidation prior to its consummation of an initial business combination or (ix) in the event that, subsequent to the consummation of an initial business combination, the Company completes a liquidation, merger, capital share exchange or other similar transaction which results in all of the Company’s shareholders having the right to exchange their ordinary shares for cash, securities or other property, in each case (except for clauses (vi), (viii) or (ix) or with the Company’s prior written consent) on the condition that prior to such registration or transfer, the transfer agent shall be presented with written documentation pursuant to which each transferee or the trustee or legal guardian for such permitted transferee agrees to be bound by the transfer restrictions contained in the letter agreement and any other applicable agreement the transferor is bound by.

Founder Shares

On March 21, 2024, the Sponsor acquired 1,437,500 ordinary shares (the “Founder Shares”) for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000, or approximately $0.0174 per share. On July 25, 2024 and December 20, 2024, the Company amended the Securities Purchase Agreement which allowed the Sponsor to increase the purchase of Founder Shares from 1,437,500 to 1,725,000 shares for $25,000, or $0.0145 per share; including an aggregate of up to 225,000 ordinary shares subject to forfeiture if the over-allotment option is not exercised in full or in part by the underwriters.  On March 10, 2025, the Sponsor forfeited 225,000 Founder Shares for no consideration as the underwriters of the IPO did not exercise the over-allotment option, with such forfeiture being reflected retroactively in the accompanying financial statements. As of June 30, 2025, the Sponsor holds 1,698,290 Ordinary Shares in total, including 1,464,000 Founder Shares and 234,290 Ordinary Shares included in the Private Units.

On January 22, 2025, the effective date of the registration statement of the IPO, the Sponsor transferred an aggregate of 36,000 of its Founder Shares, or 12,000 each to its three independent directors for their board service, for nominal cash consideration, of $522. The fair value of the transfer of the 36,000 Founder Shares was accounted for as compensation under ASC 718. On January 22, 2025, the Company recognized a stock-based compensation expense of $61,478 based on the total estimated fair value of the 36,000 Founder Shares.

On March 20, 2025, in connection with the appointment of Mr. Cameron R. Johnson as the director of the Company, the Sponsor issued a share purchase option dated March 20, 2025 (the “Share Purchase Option”) to Mr. Johnson, entitling Mr. Johnson to acquire 12,000 Founder Shares upon the exercise of the Share Purchase Option once the existing lock-up term on such Founder Shares expires pursuant to the terms and arrangements thereunder. The Company has entered into an indemnity agreement with Mr. Johnson in connection with his appointment. The estimated fair value of the Share Purchase Option at the grant date was $119,475, which will be recorded as a stock-based compensation expense upon the exercise of the option pursuant to the terms and conditions in the purchase agreement at the earlier of (i) 180 days after the completion of a Business Combination and (ii) subsequent to a Business Combination, the date on which the closing price of the ordinary shares equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for share subdivisions, share capitalizations, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 90 days after the initial Business Combination, and at or before 5:00 p.m., New York City local time, on the earlier of the liquidation of the Company’s Trust Account in the event the Company has not completed a Business Combination within the required time periods and January 22, 2030, five years from the effective date of the Registration Statement on Form S-1 filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, but not thereafter, to subscribe for, purchase and receive, in whole or in part, up to 12,000 ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share, currently held by the Sponsor, acquired by the Sponsor from the Company prior to the completion of the IPO.

The Founder Shares are identical to the ordinary shares included in the Units being sold in the IPO, and holders of Founder Shares have the same shareholder rights as public shareholders, except that (i) the Founder Shares are subject to certain transfer restrictions, as described in more detail below, and (ii) the Sponsor, officers and directors of the Company have entered into a letter agreement with the Company, pursuant to which they have agreed (A) to waive their redemption rights with respect to the Founder Shares, private placement shares and public shares in connection with the completion of its initial Business Combination and (B) to waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to the Founder Shares and private placement shares if the Company fails to complete its initial Business Combination by January 22, 2026 (unless the Company extends the Business Combination period), although they will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to any public shares they hold if the Company fails to complete its initial Business Combination within such time period and (iii) the Founder Shares and private placement shares are subject to registration rights. If the Company submits its initial Business Combination to its public shareholders for a vote, the Sponsor, officers and directors have agreed (and their permitted transferees will agree), pursuant to the terms of a letter agreement entered into with the Company, to vote any Founder Shares and private placement shares held by them and any public shares purchased during or after the IPO in favor of the Company’s initial Business Combination. 

The Sponsor has agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of its Founder Shares until the earlier to occur of: (A) six months after the completion of the initial Business Combination or (B) the date on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, share exchange, reorganization or other similar transaction after the initial Business Combination that results in all of the Company’s public shareholders having the right to exchange their ordinary shares for cash, securities or other property (the “Lock-up”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the last sale price of the Company’s ordinary shares equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for share splits, share capitalizations, rights issuances, subdivisions, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day after the initial Business Combination, the Founder Shares will be released from the Lock-up.

Promissory Note — Related Party

On March 21, 2024, the Sponsor agreed to loan the Company up to $500,000 (the “Promissory Note”) to be used for a portion of the expenses of the IPO. As of December 31, 2024, the Company had $249,712 outstanding under the Promissory Note. Prior to the closing of the IPO, the Company has an outstanding loan balance of $254,544. This loan is non-interest bearing, unsecured and is due at the earlier of (1) June 30, 2025 or (ii) the closing of the IPO, unless accelerated upon the occurrence of an event of default. The loan was repaid upon the closing of the IPO out of the offering proceeds not held in the Trust Account on January 24, 2025.

13

Working Capital Loans

In addition, in order to finance transaction costs in connection with an intended initial Business Combination, the Sponsor, the Company’s officers and directors, or their affiliates/designees may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds, from time to time or at any time, in whatever amount they deem reasonable in their sole discretion. If the Company completes the initial Business Combination, it would repay such loaned amounts. In the event that the initial Business Combination does not close, the Company may use a portion of the working capital held outside the Trust Account to repay such loaned amounts but no proceeds from the Trust Account would be used for such repayment. Up to $3,000,000 of such working capital loans (“Working Capital Loans”) may be convertible into units, at a price of $10.00 per unit at the option of the lender, upon consummation of its initial Business Combination. The units would be identical to the Private Placement Units. In addition, if the Company holds a shareholder meeting to seek shareholders’ approval for an amendment to the then existing memorandum and articles of association, as amended, to modify the amount of time or substance the Company has to consummate an initial business combination, the Company’s insiders, officers and directors or their affiliates or designees may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds in support of its potential extension to allow additional time for the Company to complete an initial business combination which will be evidenced in extension convertible notes to be repaid in cash or converted into units at the conversion price of $10.00 per unit, or the “extension units,” at the closing of its initial business combination. The working capital units and the extension units, if any, would be identical to the Private Units sold in the private placement. If the Company does not complete its initial business combination, the loans would be repaid out of funds not held in the Trust Account, and only to the extent available. The terms of such loans by our insiders, officers and directors or their affiliates, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such loans.

As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company had no borrowings under the Working Capital Loans or the extension convertible notes.

Administrative Support Services

Commencing on the effective date of the registration statement of the IPO (January 22, 2025), the Company agreed to pay the Sponsor a total of $10,000 per month for office space, utilities and secretarial and administrative support. Upon completion of its initial Business Combination or its liquidation, the Company will cease paying these monthly fees. The Company incurred $30,000 and $50,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively, of which $20,000 were included in the accounts payable and accrued expenses as of June 30, 2025. The Company did not incur any administrative fees during fiscal year 2024.

Note 6 — Commitments and Contingencies

Registration Rights

The holders of Founder Shares, Representative Shares, Private Placement Units, and units that may be issued on conversion of Working Capital Loans (and in each case holders of their component securities, as applicable) will be entitled to registration rights pursuant to a registration rights agreement to be signed prior to or on the effective date of the IPO requiring the Company to register such securities for resale. The holders of these securities are entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short form demands, that the Company registers such securities. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to its completion of its initial Business Combination and rights to require the Company to register for resale such securities pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.

Underwriting Agreement

The Company had granted the underwriter a 45-day option from January 22, 2025, the effective date of the registration statement in connection with the IPO, to purchase up to an additional 900,000 units to cover over-allotments, if any; which expired unexercised on March 10, 2025. 

14

The underwriter received a cash underwriting discount of 1.5% of the gross proceeds of the IPO, or $900,000 (or up to $1,035,000 if the underwriters’ over-allotment is exercised in full). Additionally, the underwriter received 210,000 ordinary shares of the Company (or up to 241,500 ordinary shares if the underwriters’ over-allotment is exercised in full), equal to 3.5% of gross proceeds of the IPO that were registered in the IPO and were paid at the closing of the IPO as the Representative Shares. In addition, the underwriter has agreed with respect to the Representative Shares, (i) to vote for at a shareholder meeting to approve a Business Combination or any amendment to the Company’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association to modify the substance or timing of its obligation to allow redemptions in connection with a Business Combination, (ii) to waive its redemption rights with respect to such shares until the completion of the Business Combination, in connection with the completion of the Company’s initial Business Combination or a shareholder vote to approve an amendment to the Company’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association to modify the substance or timing of its obligation to allow redemptions in connection with a Business Combination, and (iii) to waive its rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to such shares if the Company fails to complete its initial Business Combination within the timeline provided in the Company’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, to the extent such Representative Shares held by the underwriter and/or its designees, and any of their permitted transferees.

In connection with the IPO, the Company issued 210,000 Representative Shares to the underwriter with a fair value of $361,000.

Note 7 — Shareholders’ Equity

Preferred Shares — The Company is authorized to issue 10,000,000 shares of preferred share, $0.0001 par value, with such designations, voting and other rights and preferences as may be determined from time to time by the Company’s board of directors. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, there were no preferred shares issued or outstanding.

Ordinary Shares — The Company is authorized to issue 500,000,000 ordinary shares with $0.0001 par value. On March 21, 2024, the Company issued 1,437,500 Founder Shares to the Sponsor for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000, or approximately $0.0174 per share. On July 25, 2024 and December 20, 2024, the Company amended the Securities Purchase Agreement which allowed the Sponsor to increase the purchase of ordinary shares from 1,437,500 to 1,725,000 shares for $25,000, or $0.0145 per share; including an aggregate of up to 225,000 ordinary shares subject to forfeiture if the over-allotment option is not exercised in full or in part by the underwriters. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, there were 1,944,290 and 1,500,000 ordinary shares issued and outstanding, respectively, which retroactively reflects the forfeiture of 225,000 ordinary shares because the over-allotment option was not exercised in full or in part by the underwriters.

On January 22, 2025, the Sponsor transferred an aggregate of 36,000 of its Founder Shares, or 12,000 each to the Company’s three independent directors for their board service, for nominal cash consideration of $522 (See Note 5), pursuant to a securities transfer agreement which the Company entered into with the Sponsor and each of the independent director nominees on November 8, 2024 and further amended on December 20, 2024.

Rights

Each holder of a right will receive one-seventh (1/7) of one ordinary share upon consummation of its initial Business Combination, even if the holder of such right redeemed all ordinary shares held by it in connection with the initial Business Combination. No additional consideration will be required to be paid by a holder of rights in order to receive its additional shares upon consummation of an initial Business Combination, as the consideration related thereto has been included in the unit purchase price paid for by investors in the IPO and the Private Placement. If the Company enters into a definitive agreement for a Business Combination in which the Company will not be the surviving entity, the definitive agreement will provide for the holders of rights to receive the same per share consideration the holders of the ordinary shares will receive in the transaction on an as-converted into ordinary share basis, and each holder of a right will be required to affirmatively convert its rights in order to receive one-seventh (1/7) of one share underlying each right (without paying any additional consideration) upon consummation of the Business Combination. As of June 30, 2025, there were 6,000,000 Public Rights and 234,290 Private Rights outstanding, which can be converted into a total of 890,612 ordinary shares.

The shares issuable upon conversion of the Public Rights will be freely tradable (except to the extent held by affiliates of the Company). The Company will not issue fractional shares upon conversion of the rights. As a result, the holders of rights must hold rights in multiples of seven in order to receive shares for all of their rights upon closing of a Business Combination. If the Company is unable to complete an initial Business Combination within the required time period and the Company liquidates the funds held in the Trust Account, holders of rights will not receive any of such funds with respect to their rights, nor will they receive any distribution from the Company’s assets held outside of the Trust Account with respect to such rights, and the rights will expire worthless. Further, there are no contractual penalties for failure to deliver securities to the holders of the rights upon consummation of an initial Business Combination. Accordingly, the rights may expire worthless.

Note 8 — Segment Information 

ASC Topic 280, “Segment Reporting,” establishes standards for companies to report in their financial statements 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 has adopted the guidance in ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, in the accompanying financial statements on a retrospective basis.  

The Company’s chief operating decision maker has been identified as the Chief Executive Officer (“CODM”), 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 and reportable segment. The Company’s CODM does not review assets by segment in his evaluation and therefore assets by segment are not disclosed below. 

When evaluating the Company’s performance and making key decisions regarding resource allocation the CODM reviews key metrics, which include the following:

		For the Three Months Ended June 30, 2025				For the Three Months Ended June 30, 2024				For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2025				For the Period from January 18, 2024 (Inception) Through June 30, 2024
General and administrative expenses		$	151,899			$	41,200			$	405,833			$	48,039
Interest earned on demand deposit Trust Account		$	614,514			$	-			$	1,018,247			$	-

The key measure of segment profit or loss reviewed by our CODM is general and administrative expenses, which include accounting expenses, printing expenses, and regulatory filing fees, none of which are deemed to be significant segment expenses; they are reviewed in aggregate to ensure alignment with budget and contractual obligations. These expenses are monitored to manage and forecast cash available to complete a business combination within the required period. Interest earned on demand deposit in Trust Account is reviewed 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.

Note 9 — Subsequent Events

The Company evaluated subsequent events and transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date through the date when these unaudited condensed financial statements were issued. Based on this review, the Company did not identify any subsequent events that would require adjustment or disclosure in the financial statements.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes forward-looking statements. We have based these forward-looking statements on our current expectations and projections about future events. These forward-looking statements are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and assumptions about us that may cause our actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may,” “should,” “could,” “would,” “expect,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “continue,” or the negative of such terms or other similar expressions. Factors that might cause or contribute to such a discrepancy include, but are not limited to, those described in our other Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) filings. References to the “Company”, “us,” “our,” or “we” refer to Columbus Acquisition Corp. The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our unaudited financial statements and related notes herein.

Overview

We are a blank check exempted company incorporated in the Cayman Islands on January 18, 2024, for the purpose of entering into a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities. Our efforts to identify a prospective target business will not be limited to a particular industry or geographic location. We intend to utilize cash derived from the proceeds of our initial public offering (the “IPO”), our securities, debt or a combination of cash, securities and debt, in effecting a business combination. We have not selected any target business for our initial business combination.

Initial Public Offering

On January 24, 2025, we consummated our IPO of 6,000,000 units (“Units”). Each Unit consists of one ordinary share, $0.0001 par value per share (the “Ordinary Share”), and one right (the “Rights”) to receive one-seventh of one ordinary Share upon the completion of the initial business combination. The Units were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per Unit, generating total gross proceeds of $60,000,000. On January 24, 2025, substantially concurrently with the closing of the IPO, we completed the private sale (the “Private Placement”) of 234,290 units (the “Private Units”) to our sponsor, Hercules Capital Management VII Corp (the “Sponsor”), at a purchase price of $10.00 per Initial Private Unit, generating gross proceeds to us of $2,342,900. In connection with the offering of the Units and the sale of Initial Private Units, the proceeds of $60,000,000 from the proceeds of the offering of the Units and the sale of Initial Private Units were placed in the Trust Account (as defined below).

In connection with the IPO, the Company issued a total of 210,000 Ordinary shares (the “Representative Shares”) to A.G.P./Alliance Global Partners, the representative of the underwriters of the IPO. The Representative Shares are identical to the Ordinary Shares included in the Units, except that the Representative has agreed not to transfer, assign, sell, pledge, or hypothecate any such Representative Shares, or subject such Representative Shares to hedging, short sale, derivative, put or call transaction that would result in the economic disposition of the securities by any person until 180 days immediately following the commencement of sales of the IPO pursuant to FINRA Rule 5110(e)(1), subject to exceptions pursuant to FINRA Rule 5110(e)(2). The Representative has agreed to (i) vote for at a shareholder meeting of the Company to approve a business combination or any amendment to the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association to modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to allow redemptions in connection with a business combination, (ii) waive the redemption rights until the completion of the business combination, in connection with the completion of the Company’s initial business combination or a shareholder vote to approve an amendment to the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association to modify the substance or timing of our obligation to allow redemptions in connection with a business combination, and (iii) waive the rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to the Representative Shares if the Company fails to complete its initial business combination within the prescribed timeline as provided in the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, to the extent such Representative Shares held by the Representative and/or its designees, and any of their permitted transferees.

17

The proceeds of $60,000,000 from the IPO and the sales of Private Units, were placed in a trust account (the “Trust Account”) established for the benefit of our public shareholders and the underwriters of the IPO with Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company acting as trustee.

Our management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the proceeds of the IPO and the Private Placement that are held outside of the Trust Account, although substantially all the net proceeds are intended to be applied generally towards consummating a business combination and working capital.

Since our IPO, our sole business activity has been identifying and evaluating suitable acquisition transaction candidates. We presently have no revenue and have had losses since inception from incurring general and administrative expenses. We have relied upon the sale of our securities and loans from the Sponsor to fund our operations.

On March 17, 2025, the Ordinary Shares and Rights commenced trading on the Nasdaq Global Market (“Nasdaq”) under the symbols “COLA” and “COLAR,” respectively. Public Units not separated continue to trade on Nasdaq under the symbol “COLAU.” Holders of Public Units will need to have their brokers contact the Company’s transfer agent, Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, in order to separate the holders’ Public Units into Ordinary Shares and Rights.  

Results of Operations and Known Trends or Future Events

We have neither engaged in any operations nor generated any revenues to date. Our only activities since inception have been organizational activities as well as activities related to the IPO. Following the IPO, we will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of a business combination, at the earliest. We will generate non-operating income in the form of dividend and/or interest income from the proceeds derived from the IPO and sale of Private Units. Since the completion of the IPO, we expect to incur increased expenses as a result of being a public company (for legal, financial reporting, accounting and auditing compliance), as well as for expenses associated with the search for target opportunities. 

For the three months ended June 30, 2025, we had a net income of $462,615, which consisted of interest income from the trust account (the “Trust Account”) of $614,514, partially offset by general and administrative expenses of $151,899. For the three months ended June 30, 2024, we had a net loss of $41,200, all of which consisted of general and administrative expenses. 

For the six months ended June 30, 2025, we had a net income of $612,414, which consisted of interest income from the Trust Account of $1,018,247, partially offset by general and administrative expenses of $405,833. For the period from January 18, 2024 to June 30, 2024, we had a net loss of $48,039, all of which consisted of general and administrative expenses.

18

Liquidity and Capital Resources 

As of June 30, 2025, we had cash of $761,463 and a working capital of $719,917. The cash balance was increased by $761,463 for the six months ended June 30, 2025, which consisted of cash provided by financing activities of $61,066,688, partially offset by cash used in investing activities of $60,000,000 and operating activities of $305,225. Changes in operating assets and liabilities provided $39,130 of cash for operating activities.

We intend to use substantially all of the net proceeds of the IPO, including the funds held in the Trust Account, to acquire a target business or businesses and to pay our expenses relating thereto. To the extent that our share capital is used in whole or in part as consideration to affect our initial business combination, the remaining proceeds held in the Trust Account as well as any other net proceeds not expended will be used as working capital to finance the operations of the target business. Such working capital funds could be used in a variety of ways including continuing or expanding the target business’ operations, for strategic acquisitions and for marketing, research and development of existing or new products. Such funds could also be used to repay any operating expenses or finders’ fees which we had incurred prior to the completion of our initial business combination if the funds available to us outside of the Trust Account were insufficient to cover such expenses.

Over the next 12 months (assuming a business combination is not consummated prior thereto), we will be using the funds held outside of the Trust Account for identifying and evaluating prospective acquisition candidates, performing business due diligence on prospective target businesses, traveling to and from the offices, plants or similar locations of prospective target businesses, reviewing corporate documents and material agreements of prospective target businesses, selecting the target business to acquire and structuring, negotiating and consummating the business combination.

If our estimates of the costs of undertaking in-depth due diligence and negotiating our initial business combination are less than the actual amount necessary to do so, we may have insufficient funds available to operate our business prior to our initial business combination. Moreover, we may need to obtain additional financing either to consummate our initial business combination or because we become obligated to redeem a significant number of our public shares upon consummation of our initial business combination, in which case we may issue additional securities or incur debt in connection with such a business combination. Subject to compliance with applicable securities laws, we would only consummate such financing simultaneously with the consummation of our initial business combination. Following our initial business combination, if cash on hand is insufficient, we may need to obtain additional financing in order to meet our obligations.

We have incurred and expect to continue to incur significant costs to remain as a publicly traded company and to incur significant transaction costs in pursuit of the consummation of a Business Combination. We do not believe we will need to raise additional funds in order to meet the expenditures required for operating our business. However, if our estimate of the costs of identifying a target business, undertaking in-depth due diligence and negotiating a Business Combination are less than the actual amount necessary to do so, we may have insufficient funds available to operate our business prior to our initial Business Combination. Moreover, we may need to obtain additional financing either to complete our Business Combination or because we become obligated to redeem a significant number of our public shares upon completion of our Business Combination, in which case we may issue additional securities or incur debt in connection with such Business Combination. 

The Company currently has no commitments in place to receive such financing and there is no assurance that the Company’s plans to raise capital will be successful. In addition, the Company initially has until January 22, 2026 to consummate the initial business combination (assume no extensions). If the Company does not complete a business combination within the prescribed period, the Company will trigger an automatic winding up, dissolution and liquidation pursuant to the terms of the amended and restated memorandum and articles of association. Notwithstanding management’s belief that the Company would have sufficient funds to execute its business strategy, there is a possibility that a business combination might not be completed within the 12-month period from the issuance date of these financial statements.  In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with Financial Accounting Standard Board’s Accounting Standards Codification Subtopic 205-40, “Presentation of Financial Statements - Going Concern”, management has determined that the mandatory liquidation, should a business combination not occur, and potential subsequent dissolution, raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Therefore, management has determined that such additional conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern until the earlier of the consummation of the business combination or the date the Company is required to liquidate. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the Company’s inability to continue as a going concern.

Off-Balance Sheet Financing Arrangements

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

Contractual Obligations

As of June 30, 2025, we do not have any long-term debt, capital lease obligations, operating lease obligations or long-term liabilities. 

The founder shares, the Ordinary Shares included in the Private Units, and any Ordinary Shares that may be issued upon conversion of working capital loans and extension loans (and any underlying securities) will be entitled to registration rights pursuant to a registration and shareholder rights agreement entered into in connection with the IPO. The holders of these securities are entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short form demands, that we register such securities. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to our completion of our initial business combination. We will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.

Critical Accounting Estimates

In preparing these unaudited condensed financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP, management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported expenses 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 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 may differ from these estimates. We have not identified any critical accounting estimates.  

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

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

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

As a smaller reporting company, we are not required to make disclosures under this Item. 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial and accounting officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the quarter ended June 30, 2025, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and our principal financial and accounting officer have concluded that during the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective. 

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2025 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

21

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

We are not currently a party to any material litigation or other legal proceedings brought against us. We are also not aware of any legal proceeding, investigation or claim, or other legal exposure that has a more than remote possibility of having a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations. 

Item 1A. Risk Factors

Not applicable to a smaller reporting company. However, factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those in this Quarterly Report are any of the risks described in the prospectus of our IPO (File No. 333-283278) and our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 (the “Annual Report”) as filed with the SEC on March 31, 2025. Any of these factors could result in a significant or material adverse effect on our results of operations or financial condition. Additional risk factors not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also impair our business or results of operations. As of the date of this Quarterly Report, there have been no material changes to the risk factors disclosed in our prospectus and Annual Report.
