NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1 — Description of Organization, Business Operations and Liquidity and Capital Resources
Israel Acquisitions Corp (the “Company”) was incorporated as a blank check company in the Cayman Islands on August 24, 2021. The Company was formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with
As of March 31, 2025, the Company had not commenced any operations. All activity for the period from August 24, 2021 (inception) through March 31, 2025 relates to the Company’s formation and the initial public offering (the “Initial Public Offering”), and, since the completion of the Initial Public Offering, a search for a target to consummate a Business Combination. The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of its initial business combination, at the earliest. The Company will generate non-operating income in the form of gains on marketable securities held in the Trust Account, as well as interest and dividend income on cash and cash equivalents from the proceeds derived from the Initial Public Offering.
The registration statement for the Company’s Initial Public Offering was declared effective on January 12, 2023 (the “Registration Statement”). On January 18, 2023, the Company consummated its Initial Public Offering of
Following the closing of the Initial Public Offering on January 18, 2023, $
On January 8, 2024, by special resolution and at an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders, the Company (i) entered into an amendment (the “Trust Agreement Amendment”) to the Invest Management Trust Agreement dated as of January 12, 2023 (the “Trust Agreement”), with Equiniti Trust Company, LLC (f/k/a American Stock Transfer & Trust Company) (the “Trustee”) and (ii) amended the Company’s Second Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, in its entirety, by adopting the Company’s Third Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, pursuant to which the Company may extend the date by which the Company must consummate an initial business combination (the “Termination Date”) from

On January 6, 2025, by special resolution and at an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders, the Company has extended the date by which it has to complete an initial business combination from January 18, 2025 (the “Termination Date”) up to twelve (
The Company’s management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and the sale of the Private Units, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be applied generally toward consummating an initial business combination. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to complete an initial business combination successfully. The Company must complete an initial business combination having an aggregate fair market value of at least
The Company will provide its holders of the outstanding Public Shares (the “public shareholders”) with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares upon the completion of an initial business combination either (i) in connection with a shareholder meeting called to approve the initial business combination or (ii) by means of a tender offer. Except as required by law or the rules of Nasdaq, the decision as to whether the Company will seek shareholder approval of an initial business combination or conduct a tender offer will be made by the Company, solely in its discretion. The public shareholders will be entitled to redeem their Public Shares for a pro rata portion of the amount then in the Trust Account. There will be no redemption rights upon the completion of an initial business combination with respect to the Company’s warrants.
The Company will proceed with an initial business combination if the Company has net tangible assets of at least $
The Sponsor and our executive officers and directors have agreed (a) to waive their respective redemption rights with respect to any Founder Shares, Private Shares, or Public Shares held by them in connection with the completion of an initial business combination, (b) to waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to any Founder Shares and Private Shares if the Company fails to consummate an initial business combination, and (c) not to propose an amendment to the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association that would affect a public shareholders’ ability to convert or sell their Public Shares to the Company in connection with an initial business combination or affect the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to redeem
7
If the Company is unable to complete an initial business combination within the Combination Period, the Company will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than 10 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 taxes, 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 liquidating distributions, if any), subject to applicable law, and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the Company’s remaining shareholders and the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”), dissolve and liquidate, subject in each case to the Company’s 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 the Company’s Public Warrants or Private Warrants, which will expire worthless if the Company fails to complete an initial business combination within the Combination Period.
In order to protect the amounts held in the Trust Account, the Sponsor has agreed to be liable to the Company if and to the extent any claims by a vendor for services rendered or products sold to the Company, or a prospective target business with which the Company has discussed entering into a transaction agreement, reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account to below $
Business Combination Agreement
In January 2024, the Company entered into a business combination agreement with Pomvom Ltd., a company organized under the laws of Israel (“Pomvom,” and such agreement, the “Pomvom Business Combination Agreement”). In August 2024, the Company entered into a mutual termination agreement with Pomvom (the “Mutual Termination Agreement”). There are no early termination penalties incurred by the Company or Pomvom in connection with the termination of the Pomvom Business Combination Agreement.
On January 26, 2025, the Company and Gadfin Ltd. (“Gadfin”) entered into the Business Combination Agreement, pursuant to which, among other things, and subject to the terms and conditions contained therein (i) Gadfin will cause a company organized under the laws of the State of Israel and wholly owned by a trustee (the “NewPubco”) to be formed, (ii) Gadfin will cause a company organized under the laws of the State of Israel and wholly owned, direct subsidiary of NewPubco (“Merger Sub 1”) to be formed, (iii) Gadfin will cause a Cayman Islands exempted company and wholly owned, direct subsidiary of NewPubco (“Merger Sub 2”) to be formed, (iv) Gadfin will cause NewPubco, Merger Sub 1 and Merger Sub 2 to become a party to the Business Combination Agreement by delivering a joinder to the Business Combination Agreement, (v) Gadfin will effect the Share Split, (vi) NewPubco, the shareholders of Gadfin and the holders of equity awards of Gadfin will effect the Acquisition Merger (as defined herein), (vii) Merger Sub 1 will merge with and into Gadfin, with Gadfin surviving the merger as a direct wholly owned subsidiary of NewPubCo (the “Acquisition Merger”), and (viii) Merger Sub 2 will merge with and into the Company, with the Company surviving the merger as a direct wholly owned subsidiary of NewPubco (the “IAC Merger”, and together with the Acquisition Merger, the “Mergers”). The collective transactions referenced in (i)-(viii) are hereinafter referred to as the “Transactions”. The terms of the Business Combination Agreement, which contain customary representations and warranties, covenants, closing conditions, termination provisions, and other terms relating to the Transactions, are summarized below.
Under the Business Combination Agreement, holders of Gadfin equity interests are expected to receive approximately $
Gadfin may terminate the Business Combination Agreement, (a) at any time prior to the receipt of the Gadfin Shareholder Approval, in order to immediately enter into a written definitive agreement with respect to a Superior Proposal, and (b) if the representations and
8
warranties of the Company are not true and correct or if the Company has materially breached any covenant or agreement as set forth in the Business Combination Agreement. In the event the Business Combination Agreement is terminated by Gadfin in order to accept a Superior Proposal, Gadfin will pay to the Company a termination fee of $
Liquidity, Capital Resources and Going Concern
As of March 31, 2025, the Company had $
The Company’s liquidity needs through March 31, 2025 had been satisfied through a payment from the Sponsor of $
The Company has incurred and expects to continue to incur significant costs in pursuit of its financing and acquisition plans. The Company lacks the financial resources it needs to sustain operations for a reasonable period of time, which is considered to be one year from the issuance date of the financial statements. Although no formal agreement exists, the Sponsor is committed to extend Working Capital Loans as needed (defined in Note 4 below). 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 (i) new financing will be available to it on commercially acceptable terms, if at all, or (ii) that its plans to consummate an initial business combination will be successful. In addition, management is currently evaluating the impact of the invasion of Ukraine by Russia, the increased rate of inflation in the United States and other events (such as terrorist attacks, natural disasters or a significant outbreak of other infectious diseases) on the industry and its effect on the Company’s financial position and results of its operations.
We may need to obtain additional financing to complete our initial business combination, either because the transaction requires more cash than is available from the proceeds held in our Trust Account, 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. If we have not consummated our initial business combination within the Combination Period because we do not have sufficient funds available to us, we will be forced to cease operations and liquidate the Trust Account.
These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern one year from the date the financial statements are issued. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
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 of the Israel-Hamas conflict. 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 (SWIFT) 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 the Israel-Hamas conflict 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. 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 cyber-attacks
9
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.
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 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 Securities and Exchange Commission. 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, the financial statements 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 periods presented.
The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, which contains the audited financial statements and notes thereto. The financial information as of December 31, 2024 is derived from the audited financial statements presented in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024. The interim results for the three months ended March 31, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2025 or for any future interim periods.
Emerging Growth Company
The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”), and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies.
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 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 financial statement in conformity with U.S. 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 statement 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.
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 and cash equivalents. As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company had $
10
Cash and Marketable Securities held in Trust Account
Following the closing of the Initial Public Offering on January 18, 2023, an amount of $
Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash accounts in a financial institution, which, at times, may exceed the Federal Depository Insurance Coverage of $250,000. At March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company has not experienced losses on these accounts and management believes the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such accounts.
Class A Ordinary Shares Subject to Possible Redemption
The Company accounts for its Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in ASC 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” Ordinary shares subject to mandatory redemption (if any) is classified as a liability instrument and is 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) is classified as temporary equity. At all other times, ordinary shares are classified as shareholders’ equity. The Company’s ordinary shares feature certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to the occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, at March 31, 2025,
The Company recognizes changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and adjusts the carrying value of redeemable Class A ordinary shares to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Such changes are reflected in additional paid-in capital, or in the absence of additional paid-in capital, in accumulated deficit.
The Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption is reflected on the balance sheet at March 31, 2025 as follows:

Offering Costs associated with the Initial Public Offering
The Company complies with the requirements of the ASC 340-10-S99-1 and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) Topic 5A – “Expenses of Offering”. Offering costs consist principally of professional and registration fees that are related to the Initial Public Offering. The Company incurred offering costs from the Initial Public Offering of $
Fair Value Measurements
The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (“ASC 820”), defines fair value as the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability, in an orderly transaction between market participants. Fair value measurements are classified on a three-tier hierarchy as follows:
● | Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical instruments in active markets; |
● | Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable such as quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and |
● | Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions, such as valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable. In some circumstances, the inputs used to measure fair value might be categorized within different levels of the fair value hierarchy. ln 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 fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities that qualify as financial instruments under ASC 820 approximates the carrying amounts represented in the accompanying balance sheet, primarily due to their short-term nature.
Financial Instruments
The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities which qualify as financial instruments under ASC 820 approximates the carrying amounts represented in the accompanying balance sheet, primarily due to their short-term nature.
Warrants
The Company accounts for the public and private warrants as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the instruments’ specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in FASB ASC Topic 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity” (“ASC 480”) and FASB ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging” (“ASC 815”). Pursuant to the Company’s evaluation, the Company concluded that the public and private do not meet the criteria to be accounted for as liability under ASC 480. The Company further evaluated the public and private warrants and rights under “ASC 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging — Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity” (“ASC 815-40”) and concluded that the public warrants, private placement warrants are indexed to the Company’s own stock and meet the criteria to be classified in shareholders’ equity.
Income Taxes
The Company complies with the accounting and reporting requirements of ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes,” (“ASC 740”) which requires an asset and liability approach to financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed for differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities that will result in future taxable or deductible amounts, based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.
ASC 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
12
is not currently aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals, or material deviation from its position. The Company is subject to tax examinations by major taxing authorities since inception. There is currently no taxation imposed 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 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.
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. U.S. taxation could be imposed if the Company is engaged in a U.S. trade or business. The Company is not expected to be treated as engaged in a U.S. trade or business at this time. Additionally, given the nature of the investment income generated from the funds held in the trust account, it is not subject to tax withholdings in the U.S. Moreover, the Company determined that no income tax liability would arise from any other jurisdictions outside of the Cayman Islands. Consequently, income taxes are not reflected in the Company’s unaudited condensed financial statements.
Net Income (Loss) Per Ordinary Share
The statement of operations includes a presentation of income (loss) per Class A redeemable ordinary share and income (loss) per non-redeemable ordinary share following the two-class method of income per ordinary share. In order to determine the net income (loss) attributable to both the Class A redeemable ordinary shares and non-redeemable ordinary shares, the Company first considered the total net income (loss) allocable to both sets of shares. This is calculated using the total net income (loss) less any dividends paid. For purposes of calculating net income (loss) per share, any remeasurement of the Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption was treated as dividends paid to the public shareholders.
Net income (loss) per ordinary share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by class by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period. The Company has not considered the effect of the

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In November 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures (“ASU 2023-07”), which is intended to improve reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through additional disclosures about significant segment expenses. The standard was effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. We adopted this ASU for the annual period ended December 31, 2024. Adoption of the new standard did not have a material impact on our financial statements.
In December 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2023-09, “Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures” (“ASU 2023-09”), which provides for additional disclosures primarily related to the income tax rate reconciliations and income taxes paid. ASU 2023-09 requires entities to annually disclose the income tax rate reconciliation using both amounts and percentages, considering several categories of reconciling items, including state and local income taxes, foreign tax effects, tax credits and nontaxable or nondeductible items, among others. Disclosure of the reconciling items is subject to a quantitative threshold and disaggregation by nature and jurisdiction. ASU 2023-09 also requires entities to disclose net income taxes paid or received to federal, state and foreign jurisdictions, as well as by individual jurisdiction, subject to a five percent quantitative threshold. ASU 2023-09 may be adopted on a prospective or retrospective basis and is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024 with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact, if any, that ASU 2023-09 would have on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
The Company’s 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 accompanying financial statements.

The following table presents the fair value information, as of March 31, 2025 and December 31 2024, of the Company’s financial assets that were accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques the Company utilized to determine such fair value. The Company’s cash and marketable securities held in the Trust Account are based on dividend and interest income and market fluctuations in the value of invested marketable securities, which are considered observable. The fair value of the marketable securities held in trust is classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.

Measurement
The Company established the initial fair value for the cash and marketable securities held in the Trust Account on January 18, 2023, the date of the consummation of the Company’s Initial Public Offering. As the cash was transferred to the Trust Account on January 18, 2023, the value at that date is the value of the cash transferred. Changes in fair value will result from dividend and interest income and market fluctuations in the value of invested marketable securities which will be reflected on each month end bank statement.
Note 8 — Segment Information
ASC Topic 280, “Segment Reporting,” establishes standards for companies to report in their financial statement information about operating segments, products, services, geographic areas, and major customers. Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise 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, or group, in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance.
The Company’s CODM has been identified as the Chief Financial 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 there is only
The CODM assesses performance for the single segment and decides how to allocate resources based on net income or loss that also is reported on the statements of operations as net income or loss. The CODM uses net income or loss to manage the business and forecasts to ensure enough capital is available to complete a business combination or similar transaction within the business combination period. The CODM also reviews significant expenses, which are consistent with those reported on the statements of operations, to manage, maintain, and enforce contractual agreements to ensure costs are aligned with agreements and the budget. The measure of segment assets is reported on the balance sheets as total assets. All segment items included in net income or loss are reported on the statements of operations and described within their respective disclosures.

Except as expressly required by applicable securities law, the Company disclaims any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
Overview
We are a newly organized blank check company incorporated on August 24, 2021, as a Cayman Islands exempted company for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar combination with one or more businesses or assets, which we refer to throughout this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q as our initial business combination. We have generated no revenues to date, and we do not expect that we will generate operating revenues at the earliest until we consummate our initial business combination. While we may pursue an initial business combination target in any industry or sector, we intend to focus our search on high-growth technology companies that are domiciled in Israel, that carry out all or a substantial portion of their activities in Israel, or that have some other significant Israeli connection.
Recent Developments
On January 6, 2025, by special resolution and at an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders, the Company (i) entered into an amendment (the “Second Trust Agreement Amendment”) to the Trust Agreement and (ii) amended the Company’s Third Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, in its entirety, by adopting the Company’s Fourth Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, pursuant to which the Company may extend the Termination Date from January 18, 2025 up to twelve (12) times to January 18, 2026, with each such Extension comprised of one month. Pursuant to the Second Trust Agreement Amendment, the Company can extend the Termination Date by providing five days’ advance notice to the Trustee prior to the applicable Extended Date and depositing into the Trust Account the lesser of (i) $35,000 or (ii) $0.035 per Public Share, multiplied by the number of Public Shares that remain outstanding by the end of the then-current Extended Date, by the date of such Extension .
In connection with the shareholders’ vote, holders of 6,461,683 Class A ordinary shares of the Company exercised their right to redeem such shares (the “Redemption”) for a pro rata portion of the funds held in the Trust Account. As a result, $73,533,953 was removed from the Trust Account to pay such holders. Following the aforementioned Redemption, the Company has 6,352,099 ordinary shares of the Company (inclusive of the Class A ordinary shares underlying the private placement units of the Company) outstanding.
21
On January 17, 2025, the Company issued an unsecured promissory note to the Sponsor in the amount of $335,131 to pay for up to twelve additional one-month extension payments (the “2025 Extension Note”). On each of January 17, 2025, February 17, 2025, March 17, 2025 and April 17, 2025, the Company drew $27,927 against the 2025 Extension Note to pay for each additional one-month extension. The 2025 Extension Note bears no interest and is repayable in full upon the earlier of (i) the date of the consummation of the Company’s initial business combination, or (ii) the date of the Company’s liquidation.
On January 26, 2025, we entered into the Business Combination Agreement (the “Business Combination Agreement”) with Gadfin Ltd., a company domiciled in Israel (“Gadfin”). Gadfin is a pioneering technology company revolutionizing the logistics and cargo delivery industry with its innovative hydrogen-powered drones. Specializing in long-range, heavy-duty, zero-emission aerial delivery, Gadfin provides cutting-edge solutions for time-critical, essential cargo transport, especially to less accessible areas. Gadfin’s proprietary technology is designed to address the evolving needs of sectors such as healthcare, logistics, and industrial supply chains, enabling efficient, sustainable, and reliable deliveries across urban and remote areas.
Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, among other things, and subject to the terms and conditions contained therein (i) Gadfin will cause a company organized under the laws of the State of Israel and wholly owned by a trustee (the “NewPubco”) to be formed, (ii) Gadfin will cause a company organized under the laws of the State of Israel and wholly owned, direct subsidiary of NewPubco (“Merger Sub 1”) to be formed, (iii) Gadfin will cause a Cayman Islands exempted company and wholly owned, direct subsidiary of NewPubco (“Merger Sub 2”) to be formed, (iv) Gadfin will cause NewPubco, Merger Sub 1 and Merger Sub 2 to become a party to the Business Combination Agreement by delivering a joinder to the Business Combination Agreement, (v) Gadfin will effect the Share Split, (vi) NewPubco, the shareholders of Gadfin and the holders of equity awards of Gadfin will effect the Acquisition Merger (as defined herein), (vii) Merger Sub 1 will merge with and into Gadfin, with Gadfin surviving the merger as a direct wholly owned subsidiary of NewPubco (the “Acquisition Merger”), and (viii) Merger Sub 2 will merge with and into the Company, with the Company surviving the merger as a direct wholly owned subsidiary of NewPubco (the “IAC Merger”, and together with the Acquisition Merger, the “Mergers”). The terms of the Business Combination Agreement, which contain customary representations and warranties, covenants, closing conditions, termination provisions, and other terms relating to the Merger, are summarized in the Recent Developments section in Item 2 to Part I of our Annual Report.
Effective March 18, 2025, Daniel Recanati resigned from his role as Chairman of the audit committee. Simultaneously with Daniel Recanati’s resignation as Chairman of the audit committee, the board of directors appointed Peter Cohen as Chairman of the audit committee.
Results of Operations
As of March 31, 2025, we had not commenced any operations. All activity from inception through March 31, 2025 relates to our formation and initial public offering (the “Initial Public Offering”), and, since the completion of the Initial Public Offering, our search for a target to consummate a business combination. We will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of an initial business combination, at the earliest. We will generate non-operating income in the form of interest and dividend income from the proceeds derived from the Initial Public Offering and placed in a U.S.-based trust account (the “Trust Account”). 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 due diligence expenses.
For the three months ended March 31, 2025, we had net income of $66,653, which consisted of dividends income on marketable securities held in the Trust Account of $234,788, gain on extinguishment of liability of $113,136, and dividends and interest on cash and cash equivalents of $1, offset by listing expenses of $48,243, administrative expenses of $32,167, legal and accounting expenses of $157,178, marketing and advertising expense of $750, and insurance expense of $42,934.
For the three months ended March 31, 2024, we had net income of $575,856, which consisted of dividends income on marketable securities held in the Trust Account of $1,201,832, and dividends and interest on cash and cash equivalents of $5,799, offset by listing expenses of $117,464, administrative expenses of $37,029, legal and accounting expenses of $378,580, dues and subscriptions expense of $34,535, and insurance expense of $64,167.
Liquidity, Capital Resources and Going Concern
As of March 31, 2025, we had $27,193 in cash and cash equivalents held outside of the Trust Account and a working capital deficit of $1,700,104 (excluding cash and marketable securities held in the Trust Account and the deferred underwriter fee payable).
22
Until the consummation of the Initial Public Offering, our only source of liquidity was from the $25,000 of proceeds from our sponsor’s purchase of Class B ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share, and a loan of $237,234 from our sponsor pursuant to a promissory note to cover certain expenses. The promissory note was repaid in full on January 18, 2023.
Following our Initial Public Offering and the sale of Private Placement Units (the “Private Units”) to the sponsor, a total of $146,625,000 was placed in the Trust Account.
For the three months ended March 31, 2025, net cash used in operating activities was $134,277. Net income of $66,653 was adjusted by $200,930 changes in operating assets and liabilities. Net cash provided by investing activities was $73,215,383 related to proceeds from redemption of marketable securities held in Trust Account of $73,533,953, offset by the purchase of marketable securities held in Trust Account of $83,906, as well as dividends received from and reinvestment of marketable securities of $234,664. Net cash used in financing activities was $73,075,170 related to payment of redemptions on Class A ordinary shares subject to redemption of $73,533,953, offset by $458,783 proceeds from drawdowns on the promissory notes with the Sponsor for Trust extension fees and working capital needs.
As of March 31, 2025, we had marketable securities held in the Trust Account of $9,388,700 (including approximately $234,788 of gains on marketable securities) consisting of securities held in a money market fund that invests in U.S. Treasury securities with a maturity of 185 days or less. 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 deferred underwriting fees and income taxes payable), to complete our initial business combination. To the extent that our capital shares 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.
As of March 31, 2025, we had cash and cash equivalents of $27,193 held outside the Trust Account. 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 a business combination.
We may need to raise additional funds in order to meet the expenditures required for operating our business prior to our initial business combination. We expect to incur significant costs related to identifying a target business, undertaking in-depth due diligence and negotiating an initial business combination. These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern for a period of time within one year from the date that the financial statements accompanying this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are issued.
In order to fund working capital deficiencies or finance transaction costs in connection with a business combination, our sponsor or an affiliate of our sponsor or certain of our officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan us funds as may be required. If we complete a business combination, we may repay such loaned amounts out of the proceeds of the Trust Account released to us. In the event that a 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 convertible into units of the post-business combination entity at a price of $10.00 per unit, at the option of the lender. As of March 31, 2025, we did not have any outstanding working capital loans.
Contractual Obligations
We do not have any long-term debt, capital lease obligations, operating lease obligations or long-term liabilities as of March 31, 2025.
The underwriters of the Initial Public Offering are entitled to a deferred discount of $0.35 per Unit, or $5,406,250 in the aggregate. The deferred discount will become payable to the underwriters from the amounts held in the Trust Account solely in the event that we complete a Business Combination, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement.

Critical Accounting Estimates
The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and income and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. We have not identified any critical accounting estimates as of March 31, 2025.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In November 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures (“ASU 2023-07”), which is intended to improve reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through additional disclosures about significant segment expenses. The standard was effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. We adopted this ASU for the annual period ended December 31, 2024. Adoption of the new standard did not have a material impact on our financial statements.
In December 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2023-09, “Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures” (“ASU 2023-09”), which provides for additional disclosures primarily related to the income tax rate reconciliations and income taxes paid. ASU 2023-09 requires entities to annually disclose the income tax rate reconciliation using both amounts and percentages, considering several categories of reconciling items, including state and local income taxes, foreign tax effects, tax credits and nontaxable or nondeductible items, among others.

The Company is currently assessing the impact, if any, that ASU 2023-09 would have on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
The Company’s 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 accompanying financial statements.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Not required for smaller reporting companies.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures Evaluation of Disclosure 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 that is required to be disclosed in company reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer (who serves as our principal executive officer) and Chief Financial Officer (who serve as our principal financial and accounting officer), to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2025, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2025.
The design of any system of controls is based in part upon 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, regardless of how remote. However, management believes that our system of disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide a reasonable level of assurance that the objectives of the system will be met.
