NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 2022
(Unaudited)
Note 1 — Organization and Business Operation
Feutune Light Acquisition Corporation (the “Company”)
is a newly organized blank check company incorporated as a Delaware company on January 19, 2022. The Company was formed for the purpose
of entering into a merger, stock exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or similar business combination
with one or more businesses (the “Business Combination”). The Company is actively searching and identifying suitable business
combination target but has not selected any business combination target. The Company is not limited to a particular industry or geographic
region for purposes of consummating an initial business combination. The Company will not undertake its initial business combination with
any company being based in or having the majority of the company’s operations in China (including Hong Kong and Macau). The Company
has selected December 31 as its fiscal year end.
As of June 30, 2022, the Company had not commenced
any operations. For the period from January 19, 2022 (inception) through June 30, 2022, the Company’s efforts have been limited
to organizational activities as well as activities related to the initial public offering (“IPO”). The Company will not generate
any operating revenues until after the completion of a Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company will generate non-operating
income in the form of interest income from the proceeds derived from the IPO.
The registration statement for the Company’s
IPO became effective on June 15, 2022. On June 21, 2022, the Company consummated the IPO of 9,775,000 units (including 1,275,000 units
issued upon the full exercise of the over-allotment option, the “Public Units”). Each Public Unit consists of one share of
Class A common stock, $0.0001 par value per share (the “Public Shares”), and one redeemable warrant (the “Warrant”)
and one right (the “Right”) to receive one-tenth (1/10) of one share of Class A common stock (the “Class A Common Stock”).
Each Warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one share of Class A Common Stock at an exercise price of $11.50 per share. The Public
Units were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $97,750,000.
Substantially concurrently with the closing of
the IPO, the Company completed the sale in a private placement (the “Private Placement”) of 498,875 units (the “Private
Placement Units”) including 478,875 units to the Company’s sponsor, Feutune Light Sponsor LLC (the “Sponsor”)
and 20,000 shares to U.S. Tiger Securities, Inc. (“US Tiger”) at a purchase price of $10.00 per Private Placement Unit, generating
gross proceeds to the Company of $4,988,750. Each Private Placement Unit consists of one share of Class A common stock (the “Private
Shares”), one Warrant, and one Right.
The Company also issued 60,000 representative
shares (the “Representative Shares”) to US Tiger, a representative of the underwriters of the IPO, as part of representative
compensation. The Representative Shares are identical to the Public Shares included in the IPO except that the representative has agreed
not to transfer, assign or sell any such Representative Shares until the completion of the Company’s initial Business Combination.
In addition, US Tiger agreed (i) to waive its redemption rights with respect to the Representative Shares and Private Shares it owns in
connection with the completion of the Company’s initial Business Combination and (ii) to waive its rights to liquidating distributions
from the Trust Account (as defined below) with respect to the Representative Shares and Private Shares if the Company fails to complete
its initial Business Combination within the Combination Period (as defined below).
Transaction costs amounted to $6,411,757, consisting
of $5,376,250 of underwriting fees and $517,692 of other offering costs and $517,815 fair value of the 60,000 Representative Shares as
part of the transaction costs. Following the consummation of the IPO, cash of $1,029,523 were held outside of the Trust Account (as defined
below) and is available for working capital purposes.
The Company’s initial Business Combination
must occur with one or more target businesses that together have an aggregate fair market value of at least 80% of the assets held in
the Trust Account (as defined below) (excluding the deferred underwriting discounts and commissions and taxes payable on the income earned
on the Trust Account) at the time of the agreement to enter into the initial Business Combination. However, the Company will only complete
a Business Combination if the post-transaction company owns or acquires 50% or more of the outstanding voting securities of the target
or otherwise acquires a controlling interest in the target sufficient for the post-transaction company not to be required to register
as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”). There is no
assurance that the Company will be able to complete a Business Combination successfully.
Following
the closing of the IPO, $99,216,250 ($10.15 per Public Unit) from the proceed of the IPO and the proceeds from the sale of the Private
Placement Units was held in a U.S.-based trust account (the “Trust Account”) with Continental Stock Transfer & Trust
Company acting as trustee. The funds held in the Trust Account invested only in U.S. government treasury bills, bonds or notes with a
maturity of 185 days or less, or in money market funds meeting the applicable conditions of Rule 2a-7 promulgated under the
Investment Company Act which invest solely in direct U.S. government treasury, so that the Company are not deemed to be an investment
company under the Investment Company Act. Except with respect to interest earned on the funds held in the trust account that may be released
to the Company to pay the Company’s tax obligation, the proceeds from the IPO and the sale of the Private Placement Units that are
deposited and held in the Trust Account will not be released from the Trust Account until the earliest to occur of (a) the completion
of the initial Business Combination, (b) the redemption of any Public Shares properly submitted in connection with a stockholder
vote to amend then current amended and restated Company’s certificate of incorporation (i) to modify the substance or timing
of its obligation to allow redemption in connection with its initial Business Combination or to redeem 100% of the Company’s Public
Shares if it does not complete the initial Business Combination within the Combination Period (as defined below) the IPO or (ii) with
respect to any other provision relating to stockholders’ rights or pre-initial Business Combination activity and (c) the redemption
of 100% of the Company’s Public Shares if it is unable to complete the Business Combination within the required time frame, subject
to applicable law. The proceeds deposited in the Trust Account could become subject to the claims of the Company’s creditors which
could have higher priority than the claims of the Company’s public stockholders. If the Company anticipate that it may not be able
to consummate its initial Business Combination by March 21, 2023 (within nine (9) months from the consummation of the IPO), it may
extend the period of time to consummate a Business Combination up to three (3) times by an additional three-month period each time for
a total of up to 9 months, affording the Company up to December 21, 2023 (up to eighteen (18) months from the consummation of the
IPO) to complete its initial Business Combination. Public stockholders will not be offered the opportunity to vote on or redeem their
shares if the Company chooses to make any such paid extension. Pursuant to the terms of the Company’s amended and restated certificate
of incorporation and the trust agreement entered into between the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company acting as
trustee, the Sponsor or its affiliates or designees, upon five days advance notice prior to the applicable deadline, must deposit
into the Trust Account for each three-month extension $977,500 ($0.10
per share), on or prior to the date of the applicable deadline. Any such payments would be made in the form of a loan. If the Company
completes its initial Business Combination, the Company would repay such loaned amounts out of the proceeds of the Trust Account. In addition,
such extension funding loans may be convertible into Private Placement Units upon the closing of the Company’s initial Business
Combination at $10.00 per unit at the option of the lender.
The shares of Class A Common Stock subject to
redemption will be recorded at a redemption value and classified as temporary equity upon the completion of the IPO, in accordance with
Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” In such case, the
Company will consummate a Business Combination and, solely if the Company has net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001 upon such consummation
of a Business Combination and, if the Company seeks stockholder approval, a majority of the issued and outstanding shares voted are voted
in favor of the Business Combination. The Company will have by March 21, 2023 (nine (9) months from the closing of the IPO) (or up to
December 21, 2023 (18 months from the closing of the IPO) to complete the initial Business Combination (the “Combination Period”).
If the Company is unable to complete the 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 ten business days thereafter, redeem the Public Shares, at a per-share
price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account including interest earned on the funds held
in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay the Company’s taxes (less up to $50,000 of interest to pay
dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then outstanding Public Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public stockholders’
rights as stockholders (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 stockholders and its
board of directors, dissolve and liquidate, subject in each case to the Company’s obligations under Delaware 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 Warrants and Rights, which will expire worthless if the Company fails to complete the
Business Combination within the Combination Period. The Sponsor, directors and officers (the “founders”) have entered into
a letter agreement with the Company, pursuant to which they have agreed (i) to waive their redemption rights with respect to any Founder
Shares (as defined in Note 5), Private Shares, and any Public Shares held by them in connection with the completion of the initial Business
Combination, (ii) waive their redemption rights with respect to their Founder Shares, Private Shares and Public Shares in connection with
a stockholder vote to approve an amendment to the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation (A) to modify the
substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to allow redemption in connection with the initial Business Combination or to redeem
100% of the Company’s Public Shares if the Company does not complete its initial Business Combination within the Combination Period
or (B) with respect to any other provision relating to stockholders’ rights or pre-initial Business Combination activity and (iii)
to waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to any Founder Shares and Private Shares held by
them if the Company fails to complete the initial Business Combination within the Combination Period, although they will be entitled to
liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to any Public Shares they hold if the Company fails to complete the initial
Business Combination within the Combination Period. If the Company submits it initial Business Combination to its stockholders for a vote,
the Company will complete its initial Business Combination only if a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock voted are voted
in favor of the initial Business Combination. In no event will the Company redeem its Public Shares in an amount that would cause its
net tangible assets to be less than $5,000,001. In such case, the Company would not proceed with the redemption of Public Shares and the
related Business Combination, and instead may search for an alternate Business Combination.
The Sponsor has agreed that it will be liable
to the Company if and to the extent any claims by a third party for services rendered or products sold to the Company, or by 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 (i) $10.15 per Public Share or (ii) such lesser amount per Public Share held in the Trust Account as of the date of
the liquidation of the Trust Account due to reductions in the value of the trust assets, in each case net of the interest which may be
withdrawn to pay taxes. This liability will not apply with respect to any claims by a third party who executed a waiver of any and all
rights to seek access to the Trust Account and except as to any claims under the Company’s indemnity of the underwriters of the
IPO against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act (as defined in Note 2). Moreover, in the event that an
executed waiver is deemed to be unenforceable against a third party, then the Company’s Sponsor will not be responsible to the extent
of any liability for such third party claims.
However, the Company has not asked the Sponsor
to reserve for such indemnification obligations, nor has the Company independently verified whether the Sponsor has sufficient funds to
satisfy their indemnity obligations and believe that the Sponsor’s only assets are securities of the Company. Therefore, the Company
cannot assure that its Sponsor would be able to satisfy those obligations. None of the officers or directors will indemnify the Company
for claims by third parties including, without limitation, claims by vendors and prospective target businesses.
Note 2 — Significant accounting policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed financial
statements are presented in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”)
and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC, and include all normal and recurring
adjustments that management of the Company considers necessary for a fair presentation of its financial position and operation results.
Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for any other interim period or for the full year.
Emerging Growth Company Status
The Company is an “emerging growth company,”
as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, (the “Securities Act”), as modified by the
Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, (the “JOBS Act”), and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various
reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited
to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, reduced
disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements
of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously
approved.
Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS
Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies
(that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered
under the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) are required to comply with the new or revised financial
accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the
requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such an 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 unaudited condensed financial
statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets
and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of
expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash
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 no cash equivalents as of June
30, 2022.
Investments held in Trust Account
At June
30, 2022, $99,238,935 of the assets held in the Trust Account were held in money market funds, which
are invested in short term U.S. Treasury securities.
All of the Company’s investments held in
the Trust Account are classified as trading securities. Trading securities are presented on the unaudited condensed balance sheet at fair
value at the end of each reporting period. Gains and losses resulting from the change in fair value of investments held in Trust Account
are accounted as interest income in the accompanying statement of operations. Interest income for the three months ended June 30, 2022
and the period from January 19, 2022 (inception) through June 30, 2022 amounted to $22,685 and $22,685, respectively.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
ASC
Topic 820 “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” defines fair value,
the methods used to measure fair value and the expanded disclosures about fair value measurements. Fair value is the price that would
be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between the buyer and the seller at the measurement
date. In determining fair value, the valuation techniques consistent with the market approach, income approach and cost approach shall
be used to measure fair value. ASC Topic 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy for inputs, which represent the assumptions used by the
buyer and seller in pricing the asset or liability. These inputs are further defined as observable and unobservable inputs. Observable
inputs are those that buyer and seller would use in pricing the asset or liability based on market data obtained from sources independent
of the Company. Unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s assumptions about the inputs that the buyer and seller would use in pricing
the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances.
The fair
value hierarchy is categorized into three levels based on the inputs as follows:
| ☐ | Level
1 - Valuations based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability
to access. Valuation adjustments and block discounts are not being applied. Since valuations are based on quoted prices that are readily
and regularly available in an active market, valuation of these securities does not entail a significant degree of judgment. |
| ☐ | Level
2 - Valuations based on (i) quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities, (ii) quoted prices in markets
that are not active for identical or similar assets, (iii) inputs other than quoted prices for the assets or liabilities, or (iv) inputs
that are derived principally from or corroborated by market through correlation or other means. |
| ☐ | Level
3 - Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. |
The fair value of the Company’s assets and
liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” approximates
the carrying amounts represented in the accompanying balance sheet, primarily due to their short-term nature.
Warrants
The Company accounts for Warrants as either equity-classified
or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the Warrant’s specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance
in Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (“ASC 480”) and
ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”). The assessment considers whether the Warrants are freestanding financial instruments
pursuant to ASC 480, meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and whether the Warrants meet all of the requirements for
equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the Warrants are indexed to the Company’s own shares of Class A Common Stock
and whether the Warrant holders could potentially require “net cash settlement” in a circumstance outside of the Company’s
control, among other conditions for equity classification. This assessment, which requires the use of professional judgment, is conducted
at the time of warrant issuance and as of each subsequent quarterly period end date while the Warrants are outstanding.
For issued or modified Warrants that meet all
of the criteria for equity classification, the Warrants are required to be recorded as a component of equity at the time of issuance.
For issued or modified Warrants that do not meet all the criteria for equity classification, the Warrants are required to be recorded
as liabilities at their initial fair value on the date of issuance, and each balance sheet date thereafter. Changes in the estimated fair
value of the Warrants are recognized as a non-cash gain or loss on the statements of operations.
Common Stock Subject to Possible Redemption
The Company accounts for its common stock subject
to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in ASC Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” Common stock
subject to mandatory redemption (if any) are classified as a liability instrument and are measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable common
stock (including common stock 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) are classified as temporary equity. At all other times, common stock are
classified as stockholders’ equity. The Company’s Public Shares feature certain redemption rights that are considered to be
outside of the Company’s control and subject to occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, as of June 30, 2022, common
stock subject to possible redemption are presented at redemption value of $10.20 per share
as temporary equity, outside of the shareholders’ equity section of the Company’s balance sheet. The Company recognizes changes
in redemption value immediately as they occur and adjusts the carrying value of redeemable common stock to
equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Increases or decreases in the carrying amount of redeemable common
stock are affected by charges against additional paid in capital or accumulated deficit if
additional paid in capital equals to zero.
Offering Costs
The Company complies with the requirements of
FASB ASC Topic 340-10-S99-1, “Other Assets and Deferred Costs – SEC Materials” (“ASC 340-10-S99”)
and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 5A, “Expenses of Offering”. Offering
costs were $5,822,268 consisting principally of underwriting, legal, accounting and other expenses that are directly related to the IPO
and charged to stockholders’ equity upon the completion of the IPO.
Net Loss Per Common Share
The Company
complies with accounting and disclosure requirements of FASB ASC 260, Earnings Per Share. In order to determine the net income (loss)
attributable to both the redeemable shares and non-redeemable shares, the Company first considered the undistributed income (loss) allocable
to both the redeemable common stock and non-redeemable common stock and the undistributed income (loss) is calculated using the total
net loss less any dividends paid. The Company then allocated the undistributed income (loss) ratably based on the weighted average number
of shares outstanding between the redeemable and non-redeemable common stock. Any remeasurement of the accretion to redemption value of
the common stock subject to possible redemption was considered to be dividends paid to the public stockholders. As of June 30, 2022, the
Company has not considered the effect of the Warrants sold in the IPO and the Private Placement in the calculation of diluted net income
(loss) per share, since the exercise of the Warrants is contingent upon the occurrence of future events and the inclusion of such Warrants
would be anti-dilutive and the Company did not have any other dilutive securities and other contracts that could, potentially, be exercised
or converted into common stock and then share in the earnings of the Company. As a result, diluted income (loss) per share is the same
as basic (income) loss per share for the periods presented.
The
net income (loss) per share presented in the statement of operations is based on the following:

Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject
the Company to concentration of credit risk consist of a cash account in a financial institution. The Company has not experienced losses
on this account and management believes the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such account. As of June 30, 2022, approximately
$100.02 million was over the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) limit.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under ASC
740 Income Taxes (“ASC 740”). ASC 740 requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for both the expected
impact of differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities and for the expected future tax benefit
to be derived from tax loss and tax credit carry forwards. ASC 740 additionally requires a valuation allowance to be established when
it is more likely than not that all or a portion of deferred tax assets will not be realized.
ASC 740 also clarifies the accounting for uncertainty
in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process
for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits
to be recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. ASC 740 also provides
guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim period, disclosure and transition.
The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties
related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. There were no unrecognized tax benefits and no amounts accrued for interest
and penalties as of June 30, 2022. 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 has identified the United States
as its only major tax jurisdiction.
The Company may be subject to potential examination
by federal and state taxing authorities in the areas of income taxes. These potential examinations may include questioning the timing
and amount of deductions, the nexus of income among various tax jurisdictions and compliance with federal and state tax laws. The Company’s
management does not expect that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits will materially change over the next twelve months.
The Company is incorporated in the State of Delaware
and is required to pay franchise taxes to the State of Delaware on an annual basis.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Management does not believe that any recently
issued, but not effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s unaudited condensed
financial statements.
Note 3 —Investments Held in Trust Account
As

money market funds which are invested in short term U.S. Treasury Securities.
The

Note 4 — Initial Public Offering
Pursuant to the IPO, the Company sold 9,775,000
Public Units at $10.00 per Public Unit (with the underwriters’ over-allotment option exercised in full) on June 21, 2022, generating
gross proceeds of $97,750,000. Each Public Unit has an offering price of $10.00 and consists of one share of the Class A Common Stock,
one Warrant and one Right. The Warrants will become exercisable on the later of 30 days after the completion of the Company’s
initial Business Combination or 12 months from the closing of the IPO, and will expire five years after the completion of the Company’s
initial Business Combination or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.
All of the 9,775,000 Public Shares sold
as part of the Public Units in the IPO contain a redemption feature which allows for the redemption of such Public Shares if there is
a stockholder vote or tender offer in connection with the Business Combination and in connection with certain amendments to the Company’s
amended and restated certificate of incorporation, or in connection with the Company’s liquidation. In accordance with the Securities
and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and its staff’s guidance on redeemable equity instruments, which has been codified
in ASC 480-10-S99, redemption provisions not solely within the control of the Company require common stock subject to redemption to be
classified outside of permanent equity.
The Company’s
redeemable common stock is subject to SEC and its staff’s guidance on redeemable equity instruments, which has been codified in
ASC 480-10-S99. If it is probable that the equity instrument will become redeemable, the Company has the option to either accrete changes
in the redemption value over the period from the date of issuance (or from the date that it becomes probable that the instrument will
become redeemable, if later) to the earliest redemption date of the instrument or to recognize changes in the redemption value immediately
as they occur and adjust the carrying amount of the instrument to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. The
Company has elected to recognize the changes immediately. The accretion or remeasurement is treated as a deemed dividend (i.e., a reduction
to retained earnings, or in absence of retained earnings, additional paid-in capital).
As
of June 30, 2022, the common stock reflected on the balance sheet are reconciled in
the following table.

Note 5 — Private Placement
Substantially concurrently with the closing of
the IPO, the Company completed the sale of 498,875 Private Placement Units at a price of $10.00 per unit including 478,875 units to the
Company’s Sponsor, and 20,000 units to US Tiger for an aggregate proceeds to the Company of $4,988,750. Each Private Placement Units

or entities affiliated with or related to it or them, but the transferees receiving such securities will be subject to the same agreements
with respect to such securities as the founders.
The Founder Shares and Private Shares are identical
to the Public Shares. However, the Company’s founders have agreed (A) to vote their Founder Shares and Private Shares in favor
of any proposed business combination, (B) not to propose, or vote in favor of, prior to and unrelated to an initial Business Combination,
an amendment to the Company’s certificate of incorporation that would affect the substance or timing of the Company’s redemption
obligation to redeem all Public Shares if the Company cannot complete an initial Business Combination within the Combination Period, unless
the Company provides public stockholders an opportunity to redeem their Public Shares in conjunction with any such amendment, (C) not
to redeem any shares, including Founder Shares, Private Shares and Public Shares into the right to receive cash from the Trust Account
in connection with a stockholder vote to approve a proposed initial Business Combination or sell any shares to the Company in any tender
offer in connection with the Company’s proposed initial Business Combination, and (D) that the Founder Shares and Private Shares
shall not participate in any liquidating distribution upon winding up if a Business Combination is not consummated.
The Private Placement Units sold in the Private
Placement including the underlying securities and the Working Capital Units (defined below) that may be issued upon conversion of working
capital loans (including extension notes) may not, subject to certain limited exceptions, be transferred, assigned or sold by the holder
until 30 days following the closing of the Business Combination, subject to certain exceptions.
Note 6 — Related Party Transactions
Founder Shares
On February 2, 2022, the Sponsor acquired 2,443,750
Class B common stock (“Founder Shares”) of for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000, or approximately $0.01 per share.
As of June 30, 2022, there were 2,443,750 Founder Shares issued and outstanding.
The number of Founder Shares issued was determined
based on the expectation that such Founder Shares would represent 20% of the number of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common
Stock (defined below in Note 7) issued and outstanding upon completion of the IPO.
The founders has agreed not to transfer, assign
or sell 50% its Founder Shares until the earlier to occur of: (A) six months after the completion of the Company’s initial Business
Combination, or (B) the date on which the closing price of the Company’s Class A Common Stock equals or exceeds $12.50 per share
(as adjusted for share splits, share dividends, reorganizations and recapitalizations) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day
period commencing after the Company’s initial Business Combination and the remaining 50% of the Founder Shares may not be transferred,
assigned or sold until six months after the date of the consummation of the Company’s initial Business Combination, or earlier,
in either case, if, subsequent to the Company’s initial Business Combination, the Company consummates a liquidation, merger, stock
exchange or other similar transaction which results in all of the stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of Class A Common
Stock for cash, securities or other property. Any permitted transferees will be subject to the same restrictions and other agreements
of the Company’s initial stockholders with respect to any Founder Shares.
Substantially concurrently with the closing of
the IPO, the Company completed the sale of 498,875 Private Placement Units at a price of $10.00 per unit including 478,875 shares to the
Company’s Sponsor, and 20,000 shares to US Tiger for an aggregate proceeds to the Company of $4,988,750.
Representative Shares
The Company also issued 60,000 Representative Shares to US Tiger as
part of representative compensation. The Representative Shares are identical to the Public Shares except that US Tiger has agreed not
to transfer, assign or sell any such Representative Shares until the completion of the Company’s initial Business Combination. In
addition, US Tiger has agreed (i) to waive its redemption rights with respect to such shares in connection with the completion of the
Company’s initial Business Combination and (ii) to waive its rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect
to such shares if the Company fails to complete its initial Business Combination within the Combination Period.
Promissory Note — Related Party
On February 2, 2022, the Sponsor agreed to loan the Company up to $500,000
to be used for a portion of the expenses of the IPO. This loan is non-interest bearing, unsecured and is due at the earlier of (1) January
31, 2023 or (2) the date on which the Company consummates an initial public offering of its securities. Prior to the IPO, the Company
had $280,000 outstanding loan balance. The loan was repaid on June 21, 2022. As of June 30, 2022, there was no outstanding balance.
Related Party Loans
In addition, in order to finance transaction costs
in connection with an intended initial Business Combination, the Sponsor, or an affiliate of the Sponsor or certain of the Company’s
officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds as may be required. If the Company completes the initial
Business Combination, it would repay such loaned amounts. In the event that the initial Business Combination does not close, the Company
may use a portion of the working capital held outside the Trust Account to repay such loaned amounts but no proceeds from the Trust Account
would be used for such repayment. Up to $3,000,000 of such loans may be converted upon consummation of the Business Combination into Private
Placement Units at a price of $10.00 per unit (the “Working Capital Units”). If the Company does not complete a Business Combination,
the loans would be repaid out of funds not held in the Trust Account, and only to the extent available. Such Working Capital Units converted
from loan would be identical to the Private Placement Units sold in the Private Placement.
As of June 30, 2022, the Company had no borrowings
under the working capital loans.
Note 7 — Commitments & Contingencies
Risks and Uncertainties
Management is currently evaluating the impact
of the COVID-19 pandemic on the industry and has concluded that while it is reasonably possible that the virus could have a negative effect
on the Company’s financial position, results of its operations and/or search for a target company, the specific impact is not readily
determinable as of the date of these unaudited condensed financial statements. The unaudited condensed financial statements do not include
any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Registration Rights
The holders of the Founder Shares and Private
Placement Units, Working Capital Units issuable upon the conversion of certain working capital loans and any underlying securities will
be entitled to registration rights pursuant to a registration rights agreement signed on June 15, 2022, requiring the Company to register
such securities for resale. The holders of these securities are entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short form demands, that
the Company register such securities. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect
to registration statements filed subsequent to the completion of the Company’s initial Business Combination and rights to require
the Company to register for resale such securities pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act. The Company will bear the expenses
incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.
Underwriting Agreement
The underwriters of the IPO (the “underwriters”)
exercised the option to purchase an additional 1,275,000 units in the IPO.
The Company paid an underwriting discount of 2.0% of the gross proceeds
of the IPO, or $1,955,000 to the underwriters at the closing of the IPO. In addition, the underwriters will be entitled to a deferred
fee of 3.5% of the gross proceeds of the IPO, or $3,421,250 until the closing of the Business Combination. In addition, the Company issued
60,000 Representative Shares to US Tiger upon the closing of the IPO.

Class B
Common Stock — Pursuant to the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation, the Company
is authorized to issue 4,500,000 shares of Class B common stock (the “Class B Common Stock”) with a par value of $0.0001
per share. As of June 30, 2022, the Company issued 2,443,750 shares of Class B common stock.

The Class B Common Stock will automatically convert

Rights —
On June 21, 2022, the Company issued 9,775,000 Rights in connection with the IPO. Substantially concurrently with the closing of the IPO,
the Company issued 478,875 Rights to the Company’s Sponsor and 20,000 rights to US Tiger. Except in cases where the Company is not
the surviving company in a Business Combination, each holder of a Right will automatically receive one-tenth (1/10) of common stock upon
consummation of the initial Business Combination. In the event the Company will not be the surviving company upon completion of the initial
Business Combination, each holder of a Right will automatically receive the kind and amount of securities or properties of the surviving
entity that each one-tenth (1/10) of one share of Class A Common Stock of the Company is entitled to receive upon consummation of the
Business Combination. The Company will not issue fractional shares upon conversion of the Rights. As a result, holder must convert Rights
in multiples of 10 in order to receive shares upon closing of a Business Combination. If the Company is unable to complete an initial
Business Combination within the Combination Period and the Company redeems the Public Shares for the funds held in the Trust Account,
holders of Rights will not receive any of such funds for their Rights and the Rights will expire worthless.
As of June 30, 2022, 10,273,875 Rights were outstanding.
Warrants
— On June 21, 2022, the Company issued 9,775,000 Warrants in connection with the IPO. Substantially concurrently
with the closing of the IPO, the Company issued 478,875 Warrants to the Company’s Sponsor and 20,000 Warrants to US Tiger. Each
Warrant entitles the registered holder to purchase one share of the Company’s Class A Common Stock at a price of $11.50 per share,
subject to adjustment as discussed below, at any time commencing on the later of 12 months from the closing of the IPO or 30 days after
the completion of the initial Business Combination. The Warrants will expire five years after the completion of the Company’s initial
Business Combination, at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.
The Company has agreed that as soon as practicable,
but in no event later than 30 business days, after the closing of the initial Business Combination, it will use its reasonable best efforts
to file, and within 60 business days following its initial Business Combination to have declared effective, a registration statement for
the registration, under the Securities Act, of the shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants. The Company
will use its reasonable best efforts to maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement, and a current prospectus relating thereto,
until the expiration of the Warrants in accordance with the provisions of the warrant agreement signed on June 15, 2022 (the “warrant
agreement”). No Warrants will be exercisable for cash unless the Company has an effective and current registration statement covering
the Class A Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants and a current prospectus relating to such shares of Class A Common Stock.
Notwithstanding the above, if the Company’s Class A Common Stock is at the time of any exercise of a Warrant not listed on a national
securities exchange such that it satisfies the definition of a “covered security” under Section 18(b)(1) of the Securities
Act, the Company may, at its option, require holders of Warrants who exercise their Warrants to do so on a “cashless basis”
in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act and, in the event it so elect, it will not be required to file or maintain in
effect a registration statement, but it will be required to use its reasonable best efforts to register or qualify the shares under applicable
blue sky laws to the extent an exemption is not available.
In addition, if (x) the Company issues additional
shares of Class A Common Stock or equity-linked securities for capital raising purposes in connection with the closing of the Company’s
initial Business Combination at an issue price or effective issue price (the “Newly Issued Price”) of less than $9.20
per share (with such issue price or effective issue price to be determined in good faith by the Company’s board of directors and,
in the case of any such issuance to the Company’s founders or their affiliates, without taking into account any shares held by the
Company’s founders or such affiliates, as applicable, prior to such issuance), (y) the aggregate gross proceeds from such issuances
represent more than 60% of the total equity proceeds, and interest thereon, available for the funding of the Company’s initial Business
Combination on the date of the consummation of the Company’s initial Business Combination (net of redemptions), and (z) the
volume weighted average reported trading price of Class A Common Stock for the twenty (20) trading days starting on the trading day prior
to the date of the consummation of the Business Combination (the “Fair Market Value”) is below $9.20 per share, the exercise
price of the Warrants will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 115% of the higher of the Fair Market Value and the Newly
Issued Price, and the $16.50 per share redemption trigger price described below will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to
180% of the higher of the Fair Market Value and the Newly Issued Price.
The Company may call the Warrants for redemption,
in whole and not in part, at a price of $0.01 per Warrant:
| ● | in
whole and not in part; |
| ● | upon
not less than 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption (the “30-day redemption period”) to each warrant holder;
and |
| ● | if,
and only if, the reported last sale price of the Class A Common Stock equals or exceeds $16.50 per share (as adjusted for stock
splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period
ending three business days before the Company sends the notice of redemption to the warrant holders. |
The Company accounted for the 9,775,000 Warrants
issued with the IPO as equity instruments in accordance with ASC 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity” and ASC
815-40, “Derivatives and Hedging: Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity”. The Company accounted for the Warrant as
an expense of the IPO resulting in a charge directly to stockholders’ equity. The Company estimates that the fair value of the Warrants
is approximately $2.7 million, or $0.271 per Unit, using the Monte Carlo Model. The
fair value of the Warrants is estimated as of the date of grant using the following assumptions: (1) expected volatility of 0.1%,
(2) risk-free interest rate of 3.39%, (3) expected life of 6.09 years, (4) exercise price of $11.50 and (5) stock price
of $9.60.

As of June 30, 2022, the Company had $73,622 of
U.S. federal and state net operating loss carryovers available to offset future taxable income which do not expire. In assessing the realization
of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will
not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the
periods in which temporary differences representing net future deductible amounts become deductible. Management considers the scheduled
reversal of deferred tax assets, projected future taxable income and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. After consideration
of all of the information available, management believes that significant uncertainty exists with respect to future realization of the
deferred tax assets and has therefore established a full valuation allowance.
