Samos Energy (SAMO) outlines $230M cash for first deal
Samos Energy Acquisition Corporation (SAMO), a Cayman Islands blank-check company focused on acquiring cash-generative international energy assets, reported its first results from inception on January 27, 2026 through March 31, 2026. Activity was limited to formation and IPO preparation, resulting in a net loss of $28,393 from formation, general and administrative costs.
At March 31, 2026, Samos had total assets of $570,960, including $508,380 of deferred offering costs, and a working capital deficit of $184,963, funded by a $25,000 founder equity investment and a $50,000 sponsor promissory note. Subsequently, on July 13, 2026, the company completed its IPO of 23,000,000 units at $10.00, raising $230,000,000, and sold 6,000,000 Private Placement Warrants for an additional $6,000,000. After $18,075,702 of transaction costs, $230,000,000 was placed in a Trust Account to fund an Initial Business Combination within 24 months, while remaining cash and potential sponsor Working Capital Loans are available to cover ongoing search and public-company expenses.

Initial Business Combination
The Initial Business Combination must occur with one or more target businesses that together have an aggregate fair market value of at least
The Company, after signing a definitive agreement for an Initial Business Combination, will either (i) seek shareholder approval of the Initial Business Combination at a meeting called for such purpose in connection with which shareholders may seek to redeem their shares, regardless of whether they vote for or against the Initial Business Combination, for cash equal to their pro rata share of the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account as of two business days prior to the consummation of the Initial Business Combination, including interest, or (ii) provide shareholders with the opportunity to sell their Public Shares to the Company by means of a tender offer (and thereby avoid the need for a shareholder vote) for an amount in cash equal to their pro rata share of the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account as of two business days prior to the consummation of the Initial Business Combination, including interest. The decision as to whether the Company will seek shareholder approval of the Initial Business Combination or will allow shareholders to sell their Public Shares in a tender offer will be made by the Company, solely in its discretion, and will be based on a variety of factors such as the timing of the transaction and whether the terms of the transaction would otherwise require the Company to seek shareholder approval, unless a vote is required by law or under the NYSE rules. If the Company seeks shareholder approval, it will complete its Initial Business Combination only if it obtains the approval of an ordinary resolution for such Initial Business Combination under Cayman Islands law, or such higher approval threshold as may be required by law. However, in no event will the Company redeem the Public Shares if such redemption would cause the Public Shares to become a “penny stock” as such term is defined in Rule 3a51-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). In such case, the Company would not proceed with the redemption of its Public Shares and the related Initial Business Combination, and instead may search for an alternate Initial Business Combination.
If the Company holds a shareholder vote or there is a tender offer for Public Shares in connection with an Initial Business Combination, a holder of Public Shares will have the right to redeem its shares for an amount in cash equal to its pro rata share of the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account as of two business days prior to the consummation of the Initial Business Combination, including interest. As a result, such Public Shares are recorded at redemption amount and classified as temporary equity upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering, in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.”
Pursuant to the Company’s memorandum and articles of association, if the Company is unable to complete the Initial Business Combination within
In the event of a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company after an Initial Business Combination, the Company’s shareholders are entitled to share ratably in all assets remaining available for distribution to them after payment of liabilities and after provision is made for each class of shares, if any, having preference over the ordinary shares. The Company’s shareholders have no preemptive or other subscription rights. There are no sinking fund provisions applicable to the ordinary shares, except that the Company will provide its shareholders with the opportunity to redeem their Public Shares for cash equal to their pro rata share of the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, upon the completion of the Initial Business Combination, subject to the limitations described herein.
Risks and Uncertainties
The United States and global markets are experiencing volatility and disruption following the geopolitical instability resulting from the ongoing global conflicts. Although the length and impact of the ongoing conflicts are highly unpredictable, 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.

Note 1 — Description of Organization and Business Operations (cont.)
Any of the above-mentioned factors, or any other negative impact on the global economy, capital markets or other geopolitical conditions and subsequent sanctions or related actions, could adversely affect the Company’s search for an Initial Business Combination and any target business with which the Company may ultimately consummate an Initial Business Combination.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company’s liquidity needs up to March 31, 2026 had been satisfied through the issuance of Founder Shares (as defined in Note 4) and borrowings under an unsecured promissory note from the Sponsor of up to $
In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 205-40, “Presentation of Financial Statements - Going Concern,” management considered the Company’s liquidity position and expected cash requirements. On July 13, 2026, the Company consummated its Initial Public Offering and sale of Private Placement Warrants. Upon the closing of these transactions, proceeds remaining after the deposit of funds into the Trust Account and payment or accrual of offering costs and other expenses became available to fund the Company’s working capital needs. In addition, amounts initially paid or funded by the Sponsor on the Company’s behalf were remitted to the Company on July 17, 2026. Based on the completion of the Initial Public Offering and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants, management believes the Company has sufficient liquidity to meet its working capital requirements and obligations for at least one year from the date the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements are issued.
Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X of the SEC. Certain information or footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC for interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of a normal recurring nature, which are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, operating results and cash flows for the period presented.
The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s prospectus for its Initial Public Offering as filed with the SEC on July 14, 2026, as well as the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K, as filed with the SEC on July 21, 2026. The interim results for the period from January 27, 2026 (inception) through March 31, 2026 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the period ending December 31, 2026 or for any future periods.
Emerging Growth Company
As an emerging growth company, the Company 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 of 2002, 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.
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 an emerging growth 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 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.
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. The Company had cash of $

Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (cont.)
Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of a cash account in a financial institution, which at times, may exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced losses on these accounts and management believes the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such accounts.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under the FASB ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurement,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the unaudited condensed balance sheet, primarily due to their short-term nature.
Warrants
The Company will evaluate the Public and Private Warrants issued in connection with its Initial Public Offering and related private placement under the guidance of FASB ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging” and FASB ASC Topic 480, to determine the appropriate classification upon issuance. As of March 31, 2026, no warrants had been issued or were outstanding.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of unaudited condensed financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the Company’s 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 financial statements and the reported amounts of 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, the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.
Deferred Offering Costs Associated with the Initial Public Offering
Offering costs consist of legal, accounting and other costs incurred through the unaudited condensed balance sheet date that are directly related to the Initial Public Offering. Upon completion of the Initial Public Offering on July 13, 2026, offering costs are allocated to the separable financial instruments issued in the Initial Public Offering based on a relative fair value basis, compared to total proceeds received. Offering costs allocated to the warrants are charged to shareholder’s deficit. Offering costs allocated to the Public Shares are charged against the carrying value of Public Shares subject to possible redemption upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering.
Income Taxes
The Company follows the guidance for accounting for income taxes under FASB ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes.” FASB ASC Topic 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. There were no unrecognized tax benefits as of March 31, 2026. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. No amounts were accrued for the payment of interest and penalties as of March 31, 2026. 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. There is currently no taxation imposed on income by the Government of the Cayman Islands. In accordance with Cayman income tax regulations, income taxes are not levied on the Company. Consequently, income taxes are not reflected in the Company’s unaudited condensed financial statements. The Company’s management does not expect that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits will materially change over the next twelve months.
Net Loss Per Class B Ordinary Share
The Company complies with accounting and disclosure requirements of FASB ASC Topic 260, “Earnings Per Share.” Net loss per Class B ordinary share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of Class B ordinary shares outstanding during the period, excluding Class B ordinary shares subject to forfeiture. Weighted average shares for periods presented were reduced for the effect of an aggregate of

Recent Accounting Standards
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (“ASU 2023-09”), which will require the Company to disclose specified additional information in its income tax rate reconciliation and provide additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold. ASU 2023-09 will also require the Company to disaggregate its income taxes paid disclosure by federal, state and foreign taxes, with further disaggregation required for significant individual jurisdictions. ASU 2023-09 will become effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company adopted ASU 2023-09 at inception.
On July 4, 2025, President Trump signed into law the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBA”). FASB ASC Topic 740, requires the effects of changes in tax laws to be recognized in the period in which the legislation is enacted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the new law. However, none of the tax provisions are expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s unaudited condensed financial statements.
Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s unaudited condensed financial statements.

Note 6 — Shareholder’s Deficit (cont.)
None of the Private Placement Warrants will be redeemable by the Company. No fractional Public Shares will be issued upon redemption. If, upon redemption, a holder would be entitled to receive a fractional interest in a share, the Company will round down to the nearest whole number of the number of Public Shares to be issued to the holder.
Note 7 — Segment Information
FASB 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 that engage in business activities from which it may recognize revenues and incur expenses, and for which separate financial information is available that is regularly evaluated by the Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), or group, in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance.
The Company’s CODM has been identified as the Chief Executive Officer, who reviews the assets, operating results, and financial metrics 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

| For the Period from January 27, 2026 (Inception) through March 31, 2026 | ||||
| Formation, general, and administrative costs | $ | |||
The CODM reviews formation, general, and administrative costs to manage and forecast cash to ensure enough capital is available to complete an Initial Business Combination or similar transaction within 24-month period. The CODM also reviews formation, general, and administrative costs to manage, maintain and enforce all contractual agreements to ensure costs are aligned with all agreements and budget. Formation, general, and administrative costs, as reported on the unaudited condensed statement of operations, are the significant segment expenses provided to the CODM on a regular basis.
The CODM reviews the position of total assets as reported in the Company’s unaudited condensed balance sheet to assess if the Company has sufficient resources available to discharge its liabilities. The CODM is provided with details of cash and liquid resources available to the Company. Additionally, the CODM regularly reviews the status of deferred offering costs incurred to assess if these are in line with the planned use of proceeds raised from the Initial Public Offering. The CODM will review the interests and/or dividends that will be earned and accrued on investments held in Trust Account to measure and monitor shareholder value and determine the most effective strategy of investment with the Trust Account funds while maintaining compliance with the Trust Agreement.
Note 8 — Subsequent Events
The Company evaluated subsequent events and transactions that occurred after the unaudited condensed balance sheet date through the date the unaudited condensed financial statements were issued. Based upon this review, other than as described below, the Company did not identify any subsequent events that would have required adjustments or disclosure in the unaudited condensed financial statements.
The registration statement for the Company’s Initial Public Offering became effective on July 9, 2026.
The Company entered into an agreement with the Sponsor commencing on July 10, 2026, the date on which the Company’s securities are first listed on the NYSE, through the earlier of the Company’s consummation of Initial Business Combination or its liquidation, to reimburse the Sponsor or an affiliate thereof an amount equal to $

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
References in this report (the “Quarterly Report”) to “we,” “us,” “our” or the “Company” refer to Samos Energy Acquisition Corporation. References to our “management” or our “management team” refer to our officers and directors, and references to the “Sponsor” refer to Samos Energy Acquisition Sponsor, LP. The following discussion and analysis of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed financial statements and the notes thereto contained elsewhere in this Quarterly Report. Certain information contained in the discussion and analysis set forth below includes forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of many factors.
Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This Quarterly Report includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act that are not historical facts and involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expected and projected. All statements other than statements of historical fact included in this Quarterly Report including, without limitation, statements under this Item regarding our financial position, business strategy and the plans and objectives of Management for future operations, are forward-looking statements. When used in this Quarterly Report, words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend” and similar expressions, as they relate to us or our Management, identify forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements relate to future events or future performance and are based on the beliefs of our Management, as well as assumptions made by, and information currently available to, our Management. Actual results could differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors detailed in our filings with the SEC, including the “Risk Factors” section of the Company’s final prospectus for its Initial Public Offering filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 14, 2026. All subsequent written or oral forward-looking statements attributable to us or persons acting on our behalf are qualified in their entirety by this paragraph.
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed financial statements and the notes thereto included in this Quarterly Report under Item 1. “Financial Statements”.
Overview
We are a blank check company incorporated in the Cayman Islands on January 27, 2026, formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, amalgamation, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses that the Company has not yet identified (the “Initial Business Combination”). We intend to effectuate our Initial Business Combination using cash derived from the proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants, our shares, debt or a combination of cash, shares and debt.
We expect to continue to incur significant costs in the pursuit of our acquisition plans. We cannot assure you that our plans to complete an Initial Business Combination will be successful.
Results of Operations
We have neither engaged in any operations nor generated any revenues to date. Our only activities from January 27, 2026 (inception) through March 31, 2026 were organizational activities and those necessary to prepare for the Initial Public Offering, described below. We do not expect to generate any operating revenues until after the completion of our Initial Business Combination. We expect to generate non-operating income in the form of interest and/or dividend income on investments held in the Trust Account. We incur expenses as a result of being a public company (for legal, financial reporting, accounting and auditing compliance), as well as for due diligence expenses on prospective business combination targets.
For the period from January 27, 2026 (inception) through March 31, 2026, we had a net loss of $28,393, which consisted of formation, general, and administrative costs.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Until the consummation of the Initial Public Offering, our only source of liquidity was an initial purchase of Class B ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share, by the Sponsor, and borrowings from the Sponsor.
Subsequent to the quarterly period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we consummated the Initial Public Offering of 23,000,000 Units, including 3,000,000 Units issued as a result of the full exercise by the underwriters of their over-allotment option, at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $230,000,000. Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, we consummated the sale of an aggregate of 6,000,000 Private Placement Warrants to the Sponsor and Cantor Fitzgerald & Co., the representative of the underwriters of the Initial Public Offering (“Cantor”), at a price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant, or $6,000,000 in the aggregate, in a private placement.
Following the Initial Public Offering, full exercise of the over-allotment option, and portion of the proceeds from the sale of the Private Placement Warrants, a total of $230,000,000 was placed in the Trust Account. We incurred total transaction costs of $18,075,702, consisting of $4,000,000 of cash underwriting fees, $9,800,000 of deferred underwriting fees, $1,283,702 of other offering costs, and $2,992,000 aggregate fair value of the 1,600,000 Founder Shares issued to non-managing sponsor investors at $1.87 per share.
15
For the period from January 27, 2026 (inception) through March 31, 2026, net cash used in operating activities was $53,170, which is composed of net loss of $28,393 and changes in operating assets and liabilities of $24,777.
We may withdraw interest earned from the Trust Account to pay taxes, if any. We intend to use substantially all of the funds held in the Trust Account, including any amounts representing interest earned on the Trust Account (less income taxes payable and deferred underwriting discounts and commissions), to complete our Initial Business Combination. To the extent that our share capital or debt is used, in whole or in part, as consideration to complete our Initial Business Combination, the remaining proceeds held in the Trust Account will be used as working capital to finance the operations of the target business or businesses, make other acquisitions and pursue our growth strategies.
We intend to use the funds held outside the Trust Account primarily to identify and evaluate target businesses, perform business due diligence on prospective target businesses, travel to and from the offices, plants or similar locations of prospective target businesses or their representatives or owners, review corporate documents and material agreements of prospective target businesses, and structure, negotiate and complete an Initial Business Combination.
In order to fund working capital deficiencies or finance transaction costs in connection with an Initial Business Combination, the Sponsor, or certain of our officers and directors or their affiliates may, but are not obligated to, loan us funds as may be required. If we complete an Initial Business Combination, we would repay such loaned amounts. In the event that an Initial Business Combination does not close, we may use a portion of the working capital held outside the Trust Account to repay such loaned amounts but no proceeds from our Trust Account would be used for such repayment. Up to $1,500,000 of such loans may be converted into warrants of the post business combination entity at the price of $1.00 per warrant at the option of the lender. Such warrants would be identical to the Private Placement Warrants, including the exercise price, exercisability, and the exercise period. The terms of such Working Capital Loans have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such loans. As of March 31, 2026, the Company had no borrowings under the Working Capital Loans.
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 an 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 complete our Initial Business Combination or because we become obligated to redeem a significant number of our Public Shares upon completion of our Initial Business Combination, in which case we may issue additional securities or incur debt in connection with such Initial Business Combination.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no obligations, assets or liabilities, which would be considered off-balance sheet arrangements as of March 31, 2026. 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
We do not have any long-term debt, capital lease obligations, operating lease obligations or long-term liabilities, other than an agreement with the Sponsor commencing on July 10, 2026, the date on which the Company’s securities are first listed on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”), through the earlier of the Company’s consummation of its Initial Business Combination or its liquidation, to reimburse the Sponsor or an affiliate thereof an amount equal to $10,000 per month for office space, utilities and secretarial and administrative support. As of March 31, 2026, no amount has been incurred and accrued for these services.
The underwriters had a 45-day option from the date of the Initial Public Offering to purchase up to an additional 3,000,000 Units to cover over-allotments, if any. On July 13, 2026, simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the underwriters elected to fully exercise their over-allotment option to purchase an additional 3,000,000 Units at a price of $10.00 per Unit.
The underwriters are entitled to a cash underwriting discount of $4,000,000 (2.0% of the gross proceeds of the Units sold in the Initial Public Offering, excluding any proceeds from Units sold pursuant to the underwriters’ over-allotment option), which was paid to the underwriters in cash at the closing of the Initial Public Offering. Additionally, the underwriters are entitled to deferred underwriting fees of 4.0% of the gross proceeds of the Initial Public Offering held in the Trust Account other than those sold pursuant to the underwriters’ over-allotment option and 6.0% of the gross proceeds sold pursuant to the underwriters’ over-allotment option, or $9,800,000 in the aggregate payable upon the completion of the Company’s Initial Business Combination subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement executed on July 10, 2026.
Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of the unaudited condensed financial statements and related disclosures included in this Quarterly Report under Item 1. “Financial Statements” in conformity with GAAP requires Management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and income and expenses during the periods reported. 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 financial statements included in this Quarterly Report under Item 1. “Financial Statements”, which Management considered in formulating its estimates, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could materially differ from those estimates. As of March 31, 2026, we did not have any critical accounting estimates to be disclosed.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
We are a smaller reporting company as defined in Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act. As a result, pursuant to Item 305(e) of Regulation S-K, we are not required to provide the information required by this Item.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act, such as this Quarterly Report 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 Management, including the chief executive officer and chief financial officer (our “Certifying Officers”), or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Under the supervision and with the participation of our Management, including our Certifying Officers, we carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Based on the foregoing, our Certifying Officers concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the quarterly period ended March 31, 2026.
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.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There was no change 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) that occurred during the period from January 27, 2026 (inception) through March 31, 2026 covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that has materially affected, or is 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 on Form 10-Q include the risk factors described in our final prospectus under the heading “Risk Factors” for our Initial Public Offering filed with the SEC on July 14, 2026, which risk factors are incorporated herein by reference. As of the date of this Quarterly Report, there have been no material changes to the risk factors disclosed in our final prospectus for our Initial Public Offering filed with the SEC.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.
Subsequent to the quarterly period covered by this Quarterly Report, on July 13, 2026, we consummated the Initial Public Offering of 23,000,000 Units, including 3,000,000 Units issued as a result of the full exercise by the underwriters of their over-allotment option, at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $230,000,000. Cantor acted as sole book-running manager of the Initial Public Offering. The securities in the offering were registered under the Securities Act pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-1 (No. 333-296771). The Securities and Exchange Commission declared the registration statement effective on July 9, 2026.
Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, our Sponsor and Cantor pursuant to written agreements, purchased in a private placement an aggregate of 6,000,000 Private Placement Warrants, at a purchase price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant, generating gross proceeds of $6,000,000. Of those 6,000,000 Private Placement Warrants, the Sponsor purchased 4,000,000 Private Placement Warrants and Cantor purchased 2,000,000 Private Placement Warrants. Each whole Private Placement Warrant entitles the registered holder to purchase one Class A ordinary share at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment. The foregoing issuance was made pursuant to the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.
The Private Placement Warrants are identical to the Public Warrants sold in the Initial Public Offering except that, so long as they are held by the Sponsor or Cantor or their permitted transferees, the Private Placement Warrants (i) are not redeemable by the Company, (ii) may not (including the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of these Private Placement Warrants), subject to certain limited exceptions, be transferred, assigned or sold by the holders until 30 days after the completion of the Initial Business Combination, (iii) may be exercised by the holders on cashless basis, (iv) are entitled to registration rights, and (v) with respect to Private Placement Warrants held by Cantor and/or its designees, will not be exercisable more than five years from the commencement of sales in the Initial Public Offering in accordance with Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) Rule 5110(g)(8).
Of the net proceeds received from the Initial Public Offering, the exercise of the over-allotment option, and portion of the proceeds from the sale of Private Placement Warrants, an aggregate of $230,000,000 was placed in the Trust Account.
We incurred total transaction costs amounting to $18,075,702, consisting of $4,000,000 of cash underwriting fees, $9,800,000 of deferred underwriting fees, $1,283,702 of other offering costs, and $2,992,000 aggregate fair value of the 1,600,000 Founder Shares issued to non-managing sponsor investors at $1.87 per share.
