Inflection Point Acquisition V (NASDAQ: IPEX) posts Q1 profit but flags going-concern risk
Inflection Point Acquisition Corp. V, a blank check company, reported net income of $240,456 for the quarter ended March 31, 2026, driven mainly by $785,555 of interest earned on the $90.1 million held in its trust account.
Operating costs rose to $545,794 as the company pursued its proposed business combination with GOWell Technology Limited. Cash outside the trust was only $10,863, with a working capital deficit of $2.42 million.
The company has until August 14, 2026 to complete a business combination, after which it must liquidate. Management disclosed that these liquidity constraints and the mandatory liquidation trigger raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.
Positive
- None.
Negative
- Going concern warning: As of March 31, 2026, minimal cash outside the trust, a $2.42 million working capital deficit, and an August 14, 2026 deadline for completing a business combination collectively raise substantial doubt about the company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
Insights
SPAC earns trust interest but faces tight cash and going-concern risk.
Inflection Point Acquisition Corp. V generated modest quarterly net income of $240,456, almost entirely from interest on $90.1M of trust assets invested in government securities. Core operating costs of $545,794 reflect ongoing deal and compliance activity rather than a revenue business.
Only $10,863 of cash sits outside the trust and the working capital deficit is $2.42M. A sponsor promissory note grew to $700,000 at quarter-end and later to $800,000, underscoring reliance on sponsor support. These amounts are repayable only upon a business combination or, for some tranches, liquidation.
The company has until August 14, 2026 to close its initial business combination, currently planned with GOWell. Management explicitly states that this deadline, combined with limited liquidity and mandatory liquidation if a transaction fails, raises substantial doubt about the ability to continue as a going concern. Actual outcomes will depend on whether the GOWell transaction or another deal is completed within the stated window.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 2026
(UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
Inflection Point Acquisition Corp. V (f/k/a Maywood Acquisition Corp., the “Company”) is a blank check company incorporated as a Cayman Islands exempted company on
The registration statement for the Company’s initial public offering (“IPO”) became effective on February 12, 2025. On February 14, 2025, the Company consummated its initial public offering of
Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, pursuant to the Prior Sponsor’s promissory note (the “Sponsor Note”), the Prior Sponsor loaned $
Transaction costs of the IPO amounted to $
On November 19, 2025, the Company held an extraordinary general meeting. At the extraordinary general meeting, the Company’s shareholders approved (i) a proposal to change the name of the Company from “Maywood Acquisition Corp.” to “Inflection Point Acquisition Corp. V” and (ii) a proposal that the Company’s third amended and restated memorandum and articles of association (as may be further amended and/or restated from time to time, the “Articles”) be adopted in substitution for, and to the exclusion of, the existing second amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, to reflect the change of name. The intent of such proposals was to reflect that the Company is now led by the management team of Inflection Point Asset Management, LP. Each of the proposals was approved by the requisite vote of the shareholders. Each of the proposals is described in additional detail in the Company’s definitive proxy statement, dated October 27, 2025.
In connection with such name change, the Company’s Class A ordinary shares, units, and rights began trading under the symbols “IPEX”, “IPEXU” and “IPEXR”, respectively, instead of “MAYA”, “MAYAU”, and “MAYAR”, beginning on November 25, 2025. The CUSIP numbers of the Company’s securities did not change as a result of the name change.
The Company has a wholly-owned subsidiary, IPCV Merger Sub Limited (“Merger Sub”), a Cayman Islands exempted company, incorporated on October 3, 2025, which was formed solely in contemplation of the proposed Business Combination with GOWell Technology Limited. (the “GOWell Business Combination”), discussed in more detail below. Merger Sub has not commenced any operations and has only nominal assets and no liabilities or contingent liabilities, nor any outstanding commitments other than in connection with the GOWell Business Combination.
As of March 31, 2026, the Company had not commenced any operations. All activity for the period from May 31, 2024 (inception) through March 31, 2026, relates to the Company’s formation and the IPO described below, and since the IPO, the Company’s search for, negotiation of, and efforts to consummate a prospective business combination. The Company will not generate any operating revenue until after the completion of its initial business combination, at the earliest. The Company generates non-operating income in the form of interest income from the proceeds derived from the IPO. The Company has selected December 31 as its fiscal year end.
Business Combination
The Company’s Articles and the prospectus for its IPO provide that the Company will have

If the Company fails to complete a business combination within the completion window, it 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
On October 13, 2025, the Company, GOWell Technology Limited (“GOWell”), GOWell Energy Technology (“PubCo”), and Merger Sub entered into a Business Combination Agreement (as amended by Amendment No. 1 to the Business Combination Agreement, dated December 22, 2025, and as may be further amended and/or restated from time to time, the “Business Combination Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company will merge with and into PubCo, with PubCo continuing as the surviving entity, and, thereafter, Merger Sub will merge with and into GOWell, with GOWell continuing as a wholly owned subsidiary of PubCo.
On December 22, 2025, the Company and GOWell Technology Limited entered into that certain Amendment No. 1 to the Business Combination Agreement in order to clarify the number of PubCo Series A Investor Warrants to be issued upon conversion of the Company Warrants at the Second Merger Effective Time (each as defined therein).
The closing of the proposed GOWell Business Combination is subject to required approval by the Company’s shareholders, GOWell’s shareholders, and the fulfilment of certain other terms and conditions set forth in the Business Combination Agreement. For more information about the GOWell Business Combination, see the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K (File No. 001-42518), filed with the SEC on October 14, 2025.
The Trust Account
Upon the closing of the IPO and the Private Placement, $
The Nasdaq listing rules require that the Company must complete one or more business combinations having an aggregate fair market value of at least
The Company is required to provide its Public Shareholders with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares upon the completion of the business combination either (i) in connection with a shareholder meeting called to approve the business combination or (ii) by means of a tender offer.
All of the Class A ordinary shares sold as part of the Units in the IPO contain a redemption feature which allows for the redemption of such Public Shares in connection with liquidation, if there is a shareholder vote or tender offer in connection with initial business combination and in connection with certain amendments to the Articles. In accordance with SEC guidance on redeemable equity instruments, redemption provisions not solely within the control of a company require ordinary shares subject to redemption to be classified outside of permanent equity. Accordingly, all of the Public Shares were presented as temporary equity, outside of the shareholders’ deficit section of the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet. Given that the Class A ordinary shares sold as part of the Units in the IPO were issued with other freestanding instruments, the initial carrying value of Class A ordinary shares classified as temporary equity were the allocated proceeds determined in accordance with ASC 470-20. The accretion or remeasurement is recognized as a reduction to retained earnings, or in absence of retained earnings, additional paid-in capital. Accretion associated with the redeemable Class A ordinary shares is excluded from earnings per share as the redemption value approximates fair value.
Each Public Shareholder may elect to redeem their Public Shares without voting and, if they do vote, irrespective of whether they vote for or against the proposed business combination. In addition, the Company’s initial shareholders, directors and officers have entered into a letter agreement, pursuant to which they have agreed to waive their redemption rights with respect to any Founder Shares (defined below) and Public Shares held by them in connection with the completion of a business combination.

Sponsor Transaction
On September 9, 2025, the Prior Sponsor entered into a Securities Transfer Agreement (the “Transfer Agreement”) with Inflection Point Fund I LP (the “New Sponsor”), pursuant to which the Prior Sponsor sold, and the New Sponsor purchased,
Also on September 9, 2025, in connection with the Sponsor Transfer Transaction, the Company entered into an Indemnification Agreement with the New Sponsor (the “Indemnification Agreement”). Pursuant to the Indemnification Agreement, the Company agreed to indemnify and hold harmless the New Sponsor and its affiliates, officers, directors, and related parties against certain claims and losses arising from the Company’s operations, business combination activities, or the New Sponsor’s ownership of the Company’s equity interests, except for claims resulting primarily from the New Sponsor’s breach of another agreement with the Company or from its willful misconduct, gross negligence, or bad faith.
Also on September 9, 2025, in connection with the Sponsor Transfer Transaction, the Company entered into a termination agreement, pursuant to which the Company terminated the Administrative Services Agreement with the Prior Sponsor, dated February 12, 2025, and the Prior Sponsor forgave and fully discharged all outstanding fees thereunder as of September 9, 2025.
On September 9, 2025, in connection with the Sponsor Transfer Transaction, the Prior Sponsor delivered to the New Sponsor resignation letters from all of the Company’s officers and directors other than Zikang Wu, the Company’s Chairman, Chief Executive Officer, and Chief Financial Officer, in his capacity as Chief Financial Officer. Pursuant to such resignations and the vote of the holder of the Company’s Class B ordinary shares, effective September 11, 2025, the Board consists of Zikang Wu, Michael Blitzer, William Denkin and Steven Tannenbaum and Michael Blitzer was appointed as Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer, and Kevin Shannon was appointed as Chief Operating Officer. Additionally, the Company, the Prior Sponsor, the New Sponsor, and the current and former officers and directors entered into an amended and restated letter agreement to reflect the change in management of the Company.
Going Concern Consideration
As of March 31, 2026, the Company had $
In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-15, “Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern,” the Company has until August 14, 2026, to consummate a business combination. It is uncertain whether the Company will be able to consummate a business combination by this time. If a business combination is not consummated by this date, there will be a mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution of the Company. Management has determined that the liquidity condition and 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. Management intends to consummate the proposed GOWell Business Combination prior to August 14, 2026. No adjustments have been made to the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities should the Company be required to liquidate after August 14, 2026.
Risks and Uncertainties
Management continues to evaluate the impact of significant global events such as the Russia/Ukraine conflict and the ongoing conflicts in the Middle East, on the industry and has concluded that while it is reasonably possible that these could have a negative effect on the Company’s financial position, results of its operations and/or completion of its initial business combination, the specific impact is not readily determinable as of the date of these condensed consolidated financial statements. The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Appointment of Director
On January 20, 2026, the Company’s Board increased the size of the Board from four to five directors and appointed Carolyn Trabuco to serve as a Class II director, with a term expiring at the Company’s second annual meeting of shareholders. Ms. Trabuco was also appointed as a member of the audit committee of the Board.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and pursuant to the accounting and disclosure rules and regulations of the SEC.
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Emerging Growth Company
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”). As such, it is eligible to 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 of 2002, or 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 non-binding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. If some investors find the Company’s securities less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for its securities and the prices of its securities may be more volatile.
In addition, Section 107 of the JOBS Act also provides that an “emerging growth company” can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards. An “emerging growth company” can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. 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 standard used. The Company intends to take advantage of the benefits of this extended transition period.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with 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 unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
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 statement, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly 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 March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company had $
Marketable Securities held in Trust Account
As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company had $
Ordinary Shares Subject to Possible Redemption
The Public Shares 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 Public Shares subject to redemption outside of permanent equity as the redemption provisions are not solely within the control of the Company. The Company recognizes changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and will adjust the carrying value of redeemable shares to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Immediately upon the closing of the IPO, the Company recognized the accretion from initial book value to redemption amount value. The change in the carrying value of redeemable shares will result in charges against additional paid-in capital (to the extent available) and accumulated deficit.
| 8 |
Accordingly, as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption are presented at redemption value as temporary equity, outside of permanent shareholders’ equity on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet, as summarized in the following table:
| Ordinary shares subject to possible redemption, December 31, 2024 | $ | |||
| Add: | ||||
| Subsequent measurement of ordinary shares subject to possible redemption | ||||
| Ordinary shares subject to possible redemption, December 31, 2025 | ||||
| Add: | ||||
| Subsequent measurement of ordinary shares subject to possible redemption | ||||
| Ordinary shares subject to possible redemption, March 31, 2026 (Unaudited) | $ |
The Class A ordinary shares that are not subject to redemption and the Class B ordinary shares are classified as a component of shareholder’s equity since they are not subject to possible redemption outside of the Company’s control.
Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist of cash account in a financial institution, which, at times, may exceed the Federal Depository Insurance Coverage of $
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 condensed consolidated 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 condensed consolidated financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process for condensed consolidated 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. 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 March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025. 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 subject to income tax examinations by major taxing authorities since inception.
The provision for income taxes was deemed to be de minimis for the period from May 31, 2024 (inception) through March 31, 2026.
Net Income Per Ordinary Share
Net Income per ordinary share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period, excluding ordinary shares subject to forfeiture. At March 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company did not have any dilutive securities and other contracts that could, potentially, be exercised or converted into ordinary shares and then share in the earnings of the Company.

Fair Value Measurements
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 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 | |

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.
The following table presents information about the Company’s assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis at March 31, 2026 and 2025 and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation inputs the Company utilized to determine such fair value:

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under FASB ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurement,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet, primarily due to their short-term nature.
Recent Accounting Standards
In November 2024, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) Topic 2024-03, “Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income-Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses” (“ASU 2024-03”), requiring public entities to disclose additional information about specific expense categories in the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements on an interim and annual basis. ASU 2024-03 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and for interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2024-03.
Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not effective, accounting pronouncements, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 6 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Risks and Uncertainties
The United States and global markets are experiencing volatility and disruption following the geopolitical instability resulting from the ongoing Russia-Ukraine conflict and the recent escalation in the Middle East. In response to the ongoing Russia-Ukraine conflict, the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (“NATO”) deployed additional military forces to eastern Europe, and the United States, the United Kingdom, the European Union and other countries have announced various sanctions and restrictive actions against Russia, Belarus and related individuals and entities, including the removal of certain financial institutions from the Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication payment system. Certain countries, including the United States, have also provided and may continue to provide military aid or other assistance to Ukraine and to Israel, increasing geopolitical tensions among a number of nations. The invasion of Ukraine by Russia and the escalation of tensions in the Middle East and the resulting measures that have been taken, and could be taken in the future, by NATO, the United States, the United Kingdom, the European Union, Israel and its neighboring states and other countries have created global security concerns that could have a lasting impact on regional and global economies.
The length and impact of the ongoing conflicts are highly unpredictable, and as such they could lead to market disruptions, including significant volatility in commodity prices, credit and capital markets, as well as supply chain interruptions and increased cyberattacks against U.S. companies. Additionally, any resulting sanctions could adversely affect the global economy and financial markets and lead to instability and lack of liquidity in capital markets.
Any of the above mentioned factors, or any other negative impact on the global economy, capital markets or other geopolitical conditions resulting from the Russian invasion of Ukraine, the escalation of tension in the Middle East and subsequent sanctions or related actions, could adversely affect the Company’s search for and completion of an initial business combination and any target business with which the Company may ultimately consummate an initial business combination.
Registration Rights
The holders of the Founder Shares, Private Placement Units (including the securities contained therein), and any securities that may be issued upon conversion of Working Capital Loans (if any) will be entitled to registration rights pursuant to a registration rights agreement. This agreement requires the Company to register such securities for resale. In the case of the Founder Shares, registration rights will apply only after they are converted into Class A ordinary shares.
The holders of these securities are entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short-form demands, to register such securities. In addition, these holders will have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to the completion of a 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.

If the Company fails to consummate a business combination within the prescribed time frame, the Rights will expire worthless, and holders will not be entitled to receive any distribution from the Trust Account or other Company assets in respect of such Rights.
NOTE 8 – SEGMENT INFORMATION
ASC Topic 280, “Segment Reporting,” establishes standards for companies to report in their unaudited condensed consolidated 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.
When evaluating the Company’s performance and making key decisions regarding resource allocation, the CODM reviews several key metrics, formation and operational costs and dividend earned on marketable securities held in Trust Account which include the accompanying statements of operations.
The key measures of segment profit or loss reviewed by our CODM are interest earned on marketable securities held in Trust Account and formation and operational costs. The CODM reviews dividends earned on marketable securities 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. Formation and operational 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 completion window. The CODM also reviews formation and operational costs to manage, maintain and enforce all contractual agreements to ensure costs are aligned with all agreements and budget.
NOTE 9 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
The Company evaluated subsequent events and transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date up to the date that the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statement was issued. Based upon this review, except as described below, the Company did not identify any subsequent events that would have required adjustment or disclosure in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statement, other than noted below.

Overview
Inflection Point Acquisition Corp. V (f/k/a Maywood Acquisition Corp., the “Company”) is a blank check company incorporated on May 31, 2024 as a Cayman Islands exempted company for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization, or similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities. On November 19, 2025, the Company changed its name from Maywood Acquisition Corp. to Inflection Point Acquisition Corp. V.
As of March 31, 2026, we had not yet commenced operations. All activity since inception through March 31, 2026, relates to our formation, the IPO, and the identification and evaluation of prospective target businesses for an initial business combination. We will not generate any operating revenues until the completion of an initial business combination. We generate non-operating income in the form of interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account. We have selected December 31 as its fiscal year end.
On September 9, 2025, the Prior Sponsor entered into the Transfer Agreement with the New Sponsor, pursuant to which the Prior Sponsor sold 990,000 Class B ordinary shares and assigned the Sponsor Loan to the New Sponsor for an aggregate purchase price of $1,300,000 and assigned the Sponsor Loan to the New Sponsor for $500,000, for an aggregate purchase price of $1,800,000. Pursuant to the terms of the Transfer Agreement, the Prior Sponsor converted its remaining 2,028,750 Class B ordinary shares into Class A ordinary shares and agreed to vote and restrict transfer of its retained securities in support of the Company’s initial business combination and related matters.
Also on September 9, 2025, in connection with the Sponsor Transfer Transaction, the Company entered into an Indemnification Agreement with the New Sponsor. Pursuant to the Indemnification Agreement, the Company agreed to indemnify and hold harmless the New Sponsor and its affiliates, officers, directors, and related parties against certain claims and losses arising from the Company’s operations, business combination activities, or the New Sponsor’s ownership of the Company’s equity interests, except for claims resulting primarily from the New Sponsor’s breach of another agreement with the Company or from its willful misconduct, gross negligence, or bad faith.
Also on September 9, 2025, in connection with the Sponsor Transfer Transaction, the Company entered into a termination agreement, pursuant to which the Company terminated the Administrative Services Agreement with the Prior Sponsor, dated February 12, 2025, and the Prior Sponsor forgave and fully discharged all outstanding fees thereunder as of the September 9, 2025.
| 15 |
On September 9, 2025, in connection with the Sponsor Transfer Transaction, the Prior Sponsor delivered to the new Sponsor resignation letters from all of the Company’s officers and directors other than Zikang Wu, the Company’s Chairman, Chief Executive Officer, and Chief Financial Officer. Pursuant to such resignations and the vote of the holder of the Company’s Class B ordinary shares, effective September 11, 2025, the Board consists of Zikang Wu, Michael Blitzer, William Denkin and Steven Tannenbaum and Michael Blitzer was appointed as Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer, and Kevin Shannon was appointed as Chief Operating Officer. Additionally, the Company, the Prior Sponsor, the New Sponsor, and the current and former officers and directors entered into an amended and restated letter agreement to reflect the change in management of the Company.
On October 13, 2025, the Company, GOWell Technology Limited, GOWell Energy Technology, and IPCV Merger Sub Limited entered into a Business Combination Agreement pursuant to which the Company will merge with and into PubCo, with PubCo continuing as the surviving entity, and, thereafter, Merger Sub will merge with and into GOWell, with GOWell continuing as a wholly owned subsidiary of PubCo. The Business Combination Agreement and related agreements are further described in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on October 14, 2025. Other than as specifically discussed, this Quarterly Report does not assume the closing of the GOWell Business Combination or the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement.
On January 20, 2026, the Company’s Board increased the size of the Board from four to five directors and appointed Carolyn Trabuco to serve as a Class II director, with a term expiring at the Company’s second annual meeting of shareholders. Ms. Trabuco was also appointed as a member of the audit committee of the Board.
Initial Public Offering and Private Placement
Our registration statement for the IPO was declared effective on February 12, 2025. On February 14, 2025, we consummated the IPO of 8,625,000 Units, including 1,125,000 Units issued pursuant to the full exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option, at a price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $86,250,000. Each Unit consists of one Class A ordinary share and one Right.
Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, we completed a private placement of 265,625 Private Placement Units to the Prior Sponsor and the representatives of the underwriters at a price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $2,656,250. Additionally, the Prior Sponsor provided a non-interest bearing loan of $500,000 pursuant to a promissory note, which was assigned to the New Sponsor in the Sponsor Transfer Transaction.
A total of $86,250,000, comprised of proceeds from the IPO, a portion of the Private Placement, and the Sponsor Loan, was deposited into a U.S.-based Trust Account maintained by Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, acting as trustee. These funds will be used to fund redemptions of Public Shares upon the completion of a business combination or liquidation if a business combination is not completed within the required timeframe. The remaining proceeds are held outside the Trust Account and are available to fund working capital needs.
Going Concern Consideration
As of March 31, 2026, the Company had $10,863 in its operating bank account and a working capital deficit of $2,424,808. Further, the Company has incurred and expects to continue to incur significant costs in pursuit of its financing and acquisition plans in pursuit of a business combination.
In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-15, “Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern,” the Company has until August 14, 2026, to consummate a business combination. It is uncertain whether the Company will be able to consummate the GOWell Business Combination or any other business combination by this time. If a business combination is not consummated by this date, there will be a mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution of the Company. Management has determined that the liquidity condition and 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. Management intends to consummate the GOWell Business Combination prior to August 14, 2026. No adjustments have been made to the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities should the Company be required to liquidate after August 14, 2026.

Results of Operations
For the three months ended March 31, 2026, we had a net income of $240,456, which consists of interest earned on marketable securities held in the Trust Account of $785,555, interest income of $695, offset by operating costs of $545,794.
For the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company reported net income of $379,937. This was comprised primarily of $417,209 in interest earned on investments held in the Trust Account and $3,151 of the interest income received on the Cash held outside the trust account, offset by $40,423 in formation and operating costs.
Administrative Services Agreement
On February 14, 2025, we entered into an agreement to pay the Prior Sponsor a monthly fee of $1,667 for office space and administrative support services. On September 9, 2025, in connection with the Sponsor Transfer Transaction, we entered into a termination agreement, pursuant to which we terminated the Administrative Services Agreement, dated February 12, 2025, with the Prior Sponsor, and the Prior Sponsor forgave and fully discharged all outstanding fees thereunder as of the September 9, 2025. Based on the termination of the Administrative Services Agreement, no further administrative fees will accrue, and for the year ended December 31, 2025, $12,502 was recorded as forgiveness of debt in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations.
Sponsor Loan
In connection with the IPO, the Prior Sponsor loaned $500,000 to the Company under a non-interest bearing, non-convertible promissory note. The Sponsor Loan is expected to be repaid upon the consummation of the Company’s initial business combination. The Sponsor Loan is not convertible into any securities of the Company. In the event the Company does not complete a business combination, the Sponsor Loan will only be repaid using funds held outside of the Trust Account.
On September 9, 2025, pursuant to the Transfer Agreement, the Prior Sponsor sold and assigned the Sponsor Loan to the New Sponsor. The New Sponsor has waived any claim to repayment from the Trust Account with respect to the Sponsor Loan in the event that an initial business combination is not completed.
On January 7, 2026, the Company and the New Sponsor entered into an amendment to the Promissory Note, which increased the aggregate principal amount of the Promissory Note to $700,000 to reflect a $200,000 advance made by the New Sponsor to the Company for working capital. The Promissory Note is non-interest bearing and repayable in cash, with respect to the initial $500,000 loan, only upon the closing of the Company’s initial business combination and, with respect to the additional $200,000 loan, upon the earlier of the closing of the Company’s initial business combination and its liquidation. The Promissory Note may not be prepaid by the Company.
On April 2, 2026, the Company and the New Sponsor entered into a second amendment to the Promissory Note, which increased the aggregate principal amount of the Promissory Note to $800,000 to reflect a $100,000 advance made by the New Sponsor to the Company for working capital.

Deferred Underwriting Fee
The underwriters are entitled to a deferred fee of $3,450,000, which will only become payable upon the successful completion of a business combination.
Critical Accounting Estimates and Standards
The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, in our condensed consolidated financial statements. These accounting estimates require the use of assumptions about matters, some of which are highly uncertain at the time of estimation. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments, and we evaluate these estimates on an ongoing basis. To the extent actual experience differs from the assumptions used, our condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included elsewhere in this Report could be materially affected. We believe that the following accounting policies involve a higher degree of judgment and complexity. Using a valuation, the Company estimated the fair value of the Public Warrants as of the IPO. Other than estimating the value of the Public Warrants, we did not have any other critical accounting estimates as of March 31, 2026.
Warrant Instruments
We accounted for the Public Warrants issued in connection with the IPO in accordance with the guidance contained in FASB ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging”, whereby under that provision, the warrants that do not meet the criteria for equity treatment must be recorded as liability. Accordingly, we evaluated and classified the warrant instruments under equity treatment at their assigned value. Such guidance provides that the warrants described above will not be 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 in accordance with ASC 480 and ASC 815.
Class A Ordinary Shares Subject to Possible Redemption
We account for our ordinary shares subject to possible conversion in accordance with the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” Ordinary shares subject to mandatory redemption are classified as a liability instrument and 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 our control) are classified as temporary equity. At all other times, ordinary shares are classified as shareholders’ equity. Our Public Shares feature certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of our control and subject to occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, ordinary shares subject to possible redemption are presented at redemption value as temporary equity, outside of the shareholders’ equity section of our condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Net Income (Loss) Per Ordinary Share
We comply with accounting and disclosure requirements of FASB ASC Topic 260, “Earnings Per Share”. We have two classes of shares, Class A ordinary shares and Class B ordinary shares. Income and losses are shared pro rata between the two classes of shares. Net income per ordinary share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding for the period. Accretion associated with the redeemable ordinary shares is excluded from income per ordinary share as the redemption value approximates fair value.
Recent Accounting Standards
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU Topic 2024-03, “Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income-Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses” (“ASU 2024-03”), requiring public entities to disclose additional information about specific expense categories in the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements on an interim and annual basis. ASU 2024-03 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and for interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2024-03.
Management does not believe that there are any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards, which if currently adopted, would have a material effect on our condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included elsewhere in this Report.

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 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 Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
We do not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all errors and all instances of fraud. Disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met. Further, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all disclosure controls and procedures, no evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures can provide absolute assurance that we have detected all our control deficiencies and instances of fraud, if any. The design of disclosure controls and procedures also is based partly on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.
As required by Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act, our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2026. Based upon such evaluation, it was concluded that during the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15 (e) and 15d-15 (e) under the Exchange Act) were effective.
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 recently completed fiscal quarter 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
Factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those in this Quarterly Report are any of the risks described in the section titled “Risk Factors” in the Annual Report on Form 10-K as of and for the year ended December 31, 2025, filed with the SEC on March 24, 2026. 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 on Form 10-Q, there have been no material changes to the risk factors disclosed in our IPO prospectus. We may disclose changes to such factors or disclose additional factors from time to time in our future filings with the SEC.
Item 2 – Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
Unregistered Sales
On June 1, 2024, the Prior Sponsor paid $25,000, or approximately $0.003 per share, to cover certain of our offering costs in exchange for 8,050,000 Class B ordinary shares. Such securities were issued in connection with our organization pursuant to the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act. On December 19, 2024, the Prior Sponsor forfeited an aggregate of 5,031,250 Class B ordinary shares for no consideration, resulting in there being an aggregate of 3,018,750 Class B ordinary shares outstanding. The issuance of the Founder Shares was made pursuant to the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.
Simultaneously with the consummation of the IPO, the Company consummated a Private Placement of 265,625 Private Placement Units, at a price of $10.00 per Private Placement Unit, generating total proceeds of $2,656,250. The Private Placement Units were purchased by the Prior Sponsor and the representatives of the underwriters of the IPO. The Private Placement Units are identical to the Units sold in the IPO, except that the purchasers of the Private Placement Units have agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of the Private Placement Units (or underlying securities), subject to certain customary exceptions, until 30 days after the completion of the Company’s initial business combination. The issuance was made pursuant to the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.
On September 9, 2025, pursuant to the Transfer Agreement, the Prior Sponsor converted the 2,028,750 Class B ordinary shares retained by it after the Sponsor Transfer Transaction on a one-for-one basis into Class A ordinary shares pursuant to the terms of the Class B ordinary shares in reliance on Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act.
No underwriting discounts or commissions were paid with respect to such sales.
