To

Opinion
on the Financial Statements
We
have audited the accompanying balance sheet of ARC Group Acquisition I Corp. (the “Company”) as of May 1, 2026, and the related
notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly,
in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of May 1, 2026, in conformity with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America.
Basis
for Opinion
These
financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s
financial statements based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board
(United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal
securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We
conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company
is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audit
we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion
on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our
audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or
fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audit provides
a reasonable basis for our opinion.

GROUP ACQUISITION I CORP
NOTES
TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE
1. DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION, BUSINESS OPERATIONS AND GOING CONCERN
ARC
GROUP ACQUISITION I CORP (the “Company”) (formerly known as D. Boral ARC Acquisition II Corp.) is a blank check company
incorporated in the British Virgin Islands on May 27, 2025. The Company was formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, amalgamation,
share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses (“Business
Combination”). While the Company may pursue an acquisition opportunity in any business, industry, sector or geographical location,
the Company intends to focus on industries that complement our management team’s background, and to capitalize on the ability of
our management team to identify and acquire a business.
On
May 1, 2026, the Company had not yet commenced any operations. All activity through May 1, 2026 related to the Company’s formation
and the Initial Public Offering (as defined below). 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 interest income on cash
and cash equivalents from the proceeds derived from the Initial Public Offering. The Company has selected December 31 as its fiscal year
end. The Company is an early stage and emerging growth company and, as such, the Company is subject to all of the risks associated with
early stage and emerging growth companies.
The
Company’s sponsor is MFH 2, LLC (the “Sponsor”). The registration statement for the Company’s Initial Public
Offering was declared effective on April 27, 2026. On May 1, 2026, the Company consummated its Initial Public Offering of 10,500,000
units (the “Public Units” and, with respect to the Class A ordinary shares included in the Units being offered, the “Public
Shares”), at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $105,000,000 (the “Initial Public Offering”). Each Public
Unit contains one Class A ordinary share, one right (“Public Rights”) and one redeemable warrant (“Public Warrants”).
On May 1, 2026, the underwriter purchased an additional 1,575,000 units pursuant to the exercise of the over-allotment option. The units
were sold at $10.00 per unit, generating additional gross proceeds to the Company of $15,750,000.
Simultaneously
with the consummation of the closing of the Offering, the Company consummated the private placement of an aggregate of 200,000 units
(the “Private Units” and, with respect to the Class A ordinary shares included in the Private Units being offered, the “Private
Shares”) to the Sponsor at a price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $2,000,000 (the “Private Placement”).
(see Note 4).
In
connection with the consummation of the Initial Public Offering, the Company issued 483,000 Class A ordinary shares (the “Representative
Shares”) to the underwriter as part of the underwriting compensation. These Representative Shares are subject to transfer restrictions
and are considered non-cash underwriting compensation. The fair value of the Representative Shares accounted for as compensation under
Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 718, “Compensation – Stock Compensation” (“ASC 718”)
is included in the offering costs. The estimated fair value of the Representative Shares as of the Initial Public Offering date totaled
$1,114,704.
Transaction
costs amounted to $1,886,234, consisting of $771,530 other offering costs and $1,114,704 of the Representative Shares.
Following
the closing of the Initial Public Offering on May 1, 2026, an amount of $120,750,000 from the net proceeds of the sale of the Units in
the Initial Public Offering and a portion of the proceeds from the sale of the Private Units was placed in a trust account (the “Trust
Account”), and will be invested only in U.S. government treasury obligations with a maturity of 185 days or less, in money
market funds investing solely in U.S. government treasury obligations and meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment
Company Act and in cash or cash like items (including demand deposit accounts) at a bank; the holding of these assets in this form is
intended to be temporary and for the sole purpose of facilitating the intended business combination. To mitigate the risk that the Company
might be deemed to be an investment company for purposes of the Investment Company Act, which risk increases the longer that the Company
hold investments in the trust account, the Company may, at any time (based on our management team’s ongoing assessment of all factors
related to our potential status under the Investment Company Act), instruct the trustee to liquidate the investments held in the trust
account and instead to hold the funds in the trust account in cash or in an interest bearing demand deposit account at a bank.
F-4
The
Company will provide its public shareholders with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares upon the completion
of our 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. In connection with a proposed Business Combination, the Company may seek shareholder approval of
a Business Combination at a meeting called for such purpose at which shareholders may seek to redeem their shares, regardless of how
they vote for the Business Combination.
The
shareholders will be entitled to redeem their Public Shares for a pro rata portion of the amount then in the Trust Account (initially
$10.00 per share, plus any pro rata interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company
to pay its tax obligations). These ordinary shares will be recorded at a redemption value and classified as temporary equity upon the
completion of the Initial Public Offering, in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480 “Distinguishing
Liabilities from Equity.”
If
a shareholder vote is not required and the Company does not decide to hold a shareholder vote for business or other reasons, the Company
will, pursuant to its amended and restated memorandum and articles of association conduct the redemptions pursuant to Rule 13e-4 and
Regulation 14E of the Exchange Act, which regulate issuer tender offers, and file tender offer documents with the SEC prior to completing
our initial business combination which contain substantially the same financial and other information about the initial business combination
and the redemption rights as is required under Regulation 14A of the Exchange Act, which regulates the solicitation of proxies.
The
sponsor, officers and directors have entered into a letter agreement with the Company, pursuant to which they have agreed to (i) waive
their redemption rights with respect to their Founder Shares, Private Shares and Public Shares in connection with the completion of our
initial business combination; (ii) waive their redemption rights with respect to their Founder Shares, Private Shares and Public Shares
in connection with a shareholder vote to approve an amendment to our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association; (iii)
waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the trust account with respect to their Founder Shares and Private Shares if the
Company fail to complete our initial business combination within the completion window, although they will be entitled to liquidating
distributions from the trust account with respect to any Public Shares they hold if the Company fail to complete our initial business
combination within the prescribed time frame and to liquidating distributions from assets outside the trust account; and (iv) vote any
Founder Shares and Private Shares held by them and any Public Shares purchased during or after this offering (including in open market
and privately-negotiated transactions) in favor of our initial business combination (except that any Public Shares such parties may purchase
in compliance with the requirements of Rule 14e-5 under the Exchange Act would not be voted in favor of approving the business combination
transaction).
The
Company will have until 12 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering, with one (1) three-month extension at the option of
the sponsor (as may be extended by shareholder approval to amend our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association to extend
the date by which the Company must consummate our initial business combination) or until such earlier liquidation date as our board of
directors may approve, to consummate a Business Combination (the “Combination Period”). If the Company is unable to complete
a 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 (and subject to lawfully available funds therefor),
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 (which interest shall be net of taxes and less up to $100,000 of interest
to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then-outstanding Public Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public
shareholders’ rights as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidating distributions, if any), subject to applicable
law, and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of our remaining shareholders and
our board of directors, liquidate and dissolve, subject in each case to our obligations under British Virgin Islands law to provide for
claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law.
F-5
The
Sponsor has agreed that it will be liable to us if and to the extent any claims by a third party for services rendered or products sold
to us (except for the Company’s independent auditors), or a prospective target business with which the Company has entered into
a written letter of intent, confidentiality or other similar agreement or business combination agreement, reduce the amount of funds
in the trust account to below the lesser of (i) $10.00 per public share and (ii) the actual amount per public share held in the trust
account as of the date of the liquidation of the trust account, if less than $10.00 per public share due to reductions in the value of
the trust assets, less taxes payable, provided that such liability will not apply to any claims by a third party or prospective target
business who executed a waiver of any and all rights to the monies held in the trust account (whether or not such waiver is enforceable)
nor will it apply to any claims under our indemnity of the underwriters of this offering against certain liabilities, including liabilities
under the Securities Act. However, the Company has not asked our sponsor to reserve for such indemnification obligations, nor has the
Company independently verified whether our sponsor has sufficient funds to satisfy its indemnity obligations and the Company believe
that our sponsor’s only assets are securities of our company. Therefore, the Company cannot assure you that our sponsor would be
able to satisfy those obligations. As a result, if any such claims were successfully made against the trust account, the funds available
for our initial business combination and redemptions could be reduced to less than $10.00 per public share. In such event, the Company
may not be able to complete our initial business combination, and you would receive such lesser amount per share in connection with any
redemption of your Public Shares. None of our officers or directors will indemnify us for claims by third parties including, without
limitation, claims by vendors and prospective target businesses.
NOTE
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis
of presentation
The
accompanying financial statements are presented in U.S. Dollars and conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America (“GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC.
Liquidity
and Capital Resources
As
of May 1, 2026, the Company had $2,000,000 in cash and a working capital of $1,178,850.
The
Company’s liquidity needs prior to the consummation of the Initial Public Offering were satisfied through the loan from the Sponsor
under the Promissory Note (as defined in Note 5). The Company offset the subscription of $25,000 with the promissory note. The Company
has $265,577 outstanding under the Promissory Note on May 1, 2026. Subsequent to the consummation of the Initial Public Offering, the
Company’s liquidity has been satisfied through the net proceeds from the consummation of the Initial Public Offering and the Private
Placement held outside of the Trust Account. In addition, in order to finance transaction costs in connection with a 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, provide
the Company Working Capital Loans (as defined in Note 5). As of May 1, 2026, there were no amounts outstanding under any Working Capital
Loans.
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 including, but not limited to, not being required
to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding
executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory
vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.
Further,
Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting
standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do
not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting
standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements
that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable.
F-6
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 statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements.
Making
estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of
a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the 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 equivalents.
The Company had $2,000,000 of cash as of May 1, 2026. The Company had no cash equivalents as of May 1, 2026.
Cash
held in the Trust Account
As
of May 1, 2026, the Company had $120,750,000 in cash held in the Trust Account.
Offering
Costs Associated with the Initial Public Offering
The
Company complies with the requirements of the ASC 340-10-S99 and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) Topic 5A — “Expenses
of Offering.” Deferred offering costs consist principally of professional and registration fees that are related to the Initial
Public Offering. Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) ASC 470-20, “Debt with Conversion and Other Options,”
addresses the allocation of proceeds from the issuance of convertible debt into its equity and debt components. The Company applies this
guidance to allocate Initial Public Offering proceeds from the Public Units between ordinary shares, rights and warrants, using the residual
method by allocating Initial Public Offering proceeds first to assigned value of the warrants and rights and then to the Class A ordinary
shares. Offering costs allocated to the Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption were charged to temporary equity, and
offering costs allocated to the warrants and rights included in the Public Units and Private Units were charged to shareholder’s
equity as the warrants and rights, after management’s evaluation, were accounted for under equity treatment. As of May 1, 2026,
the Company had offering costs of $1,886,234, consisting of $771,530 other offering costs and $1,114,704 of the Representative Shares.
Approximately $173,328 of such costs were allocated to the Public Warrants, Public Rights and the Private Placement Units and the remainder,
approximately $1,712,906 was allocated to Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption.
Income
taxes
The
Company complies with the accounting and reporting requirements of ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes,” 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
Topic 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax
positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than-not
to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. The Company’s management determined that the British Virgin Islands is
the Company’s major tax jurisdiction. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits,
if any, as income tax expense. There were no unrecognized tax benefits as of May 1, 2026 and no amounts accrued for interest and penalties.
The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviation
from its position.
F-7
The
Company is considered to be a BVI business company with no connection to any other taxable jurisdiction and is presently not subject
to income taxes or income tax filing requirements in the British Virgin Islands or the United States. As such, the provision for income
taxes was deemed to be de minimis for the period from May 27, 2025 (inception) to May 1, 2026.
Derivative
Financial Instruments
The
Company evaluates its financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded
derivatives in accordance with ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging.” For derivative financial instruments that are accounted
for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value on the grant date and is then re-valued at each
reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the statements of operations. The classification of derivative instruments,
including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is evaluated at the end of each reporting period.
Derivative liabilities are classified in the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not net cash settlement or conversion
of the instrument could be required within 12 months of the balance sheet date.
Warrant
The
Company accounted for the 12,075,000 Public Warrants included in the Units issued in connection with the Initial Public Offering and
200,000 Private Warrants issued in connection with the Initial Public Offering and the private placement in accordance with the guidance
contained in FASB ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging”. Accordingly, the Company evaluated and classified the warrant
instruments under equity treatment at their assigned values.
Share
Rights
The
Company accounts for the Public Rights and Private Rights (defined below) issued in connection with the Initial Public Offering
and the private placement in accordance with the guidance contained in FASB ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging.” Accordingly,
the Company evaluated and classified the rights under equity treatment at their assigned value. There are no Public Rights or Private Rights
currently outstanding as of May 1, 2026.
Class
A Ordinary Shares Subject to Possible Redemption
The
Public Shares contain a redemption feature which allows for the redemption of such Public Shares in connection with the Company’s
liquidation, or if there is a shareholder vote or tender offer in connection with the Company’s initial Business Combination. In
accordance with ASC 480-10-S99, the Company classifies Public Shares subject to redemption outside of permanent equity as the redemption
provisions are not solely within the control of the Company. The Company recognizes changes in redemption value immediately as they occur
and will adjust the carrying value of redeemable shares to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Immediately
upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company recognized the accretion from initial book value to redemption amount value.
The change in the carrying value of redeemable shares will result in charges against additional paid-in capital (to the extent available)

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,
which at times may exceed the Federal depository insurance coverage of $250,000. At May 1, 2026, the Company had not experienced losses
on this account and management believes the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such account.
Fair
value of financial instruments
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.
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, the Israel-Hamas conflict and the recent escalation of the Israel-Iran 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 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, the Israel-Hamas conflict and the recent escalation of the Israel-Iran 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 against U.S. companies. Additionally, any resulting sanctions could adversely affect the global
economy and financial markets and lead to instability and lack of liquidity in capital markets.
Any
of the above-mentioned factors, or any other negative impact on the global economy, capital markets or other geopolitical conditions
resulting from the Russian invasion of Ukraine, the Israel-Hamas conflict and the recent escalation of the Israel-Iran conflict and subsequent
sanctions or related actions, could adversely affect the Company’s search for an initial Business Combination and any target business
with which the Company may ultimately consummate an initial Business Combination.
Recent
Accounting Pronouncements
Management
does not believe that any other recently issued, but not effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material
effect on the Company’s financial statements.

NOTE
3. INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING
On
May 1, 2026, the Company consummated its Initial Public Offering of 10,500,000 Units, at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of
$105,000,000. On the same day, the underwriter purchased an additional 1,575,000 units pursuant to the exercise of the over-allotment
option. In total, the Company has 12,075,000 Units consummated through the Initial Public Offering at $10.00 per Unit and generated total
gross proceeds of $120,750,000. Each Unit consists of one Class A ordinary share, one redeemable warrant and one right. Each warrant
entitles the holder thereof to purchase Class A ordinary share at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment. Each right entitles
the holder to receive one-fourth (1/4) of one Class A ordinary share upon the consummation of our initial business combination.
NOTE
4. PRIVATE PLACEMENT
Simultaneously
with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Sponsor purchased an aggregate of 200,000 Private Units at a price of $10.00 per
Private Unit from the Company in a private placement. The proceeds from the sale of the Private Units were added to the net proceeds
from the Offering held in the Trust Account. The Private Units are identical to the Units sold in the Initial Public Offering, as described
in Note 7. Each Private Unit contains one Class A ordinary share, one right (“Private Rights”) and one redeemable warrant
(“Private Warrants”). If the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the proceeds
from the sale of the Private Units will be used to fund the redemption of the Public Shares (subject to the requirements of applicable
law) and the Private Warrants will expire worthless.
NOTE
5. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Insider
shares
On
May 27, 2025, the Company issued an aggregate of 12,321,429 Class B ordinary shares (“Founder Shares”) Founder Shares to
the Sponsor for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000 in cash. The funds were not received by December 31, 2025. On December 3, 2025,
our sponsor surrendered 4,928,572 Class B ordinary shares it held for no consideration, leaving sponsor with 7,392,857 Class B ordinary
shares for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000 (up to 964,286 of which are subject to forfeiture by the holders thereof depending
on the extent to which the underwriter’s over-allotment option is exercised). On April 6, 2026 pursuant to the second downsize of
the Proposed Public Offering, our sponsor further surrendered 2,217,857 Class B ordinary shares for no consideration, leaving sponsor
with 5,175,000 Class B ordinary shares for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000 (up to 675,000 which are subject to forfeiture
by the holders thereof depending on the extent to which the underwriter’s over-allotment option is exercised). As of May 1, 2026,
Following the fully exercise of over-allotment options by the underwriters, no insider shares are subject to forfeiture.
The
Founder Shares are designated as Class B ordinary shares and, except as described below, are identical to the Class A ordinary shares
included in the units being sold in this offering, and holders of Founder Shares have the same shareholder rights as public shareholders,
except that (i) the Founder Shares are subject to certain transfer restrictions, as described in more detail below, (ii) the Founder
Shares are entitled to registration rights; (iii) our sponsor, officers and directors have entered into a letter agreement with us, pursuant
to which they have agreed to (A) waive their redemption rights with respect to their Founder Shares, Private Shares and Public Shares
in connection with the completion of our initial business combination, (B) waive their redemption rights with respect to their Founder
Shares, Private Shares and Public Shares in connection with a shareholder vote to approve an amendment to our amended and restated memorandum
and articles of association (a) to modify the substance or timing of our obligation to allow redemption in connection with our initial
business combination or to redeem 100% of our Public Shares if we have not consummated an initial business combination within the completion
window or (b) with respect to any other material provisions relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-initial business combination
activity, (C) waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the trust account with respect to their Founder Shares and Private
Shares if we fail to complete our initial business combination within the completion window, although they will be entitled to liquidating
distributions from the trust account with respect to any Public Shares they hold if we fail to complete our initial business combination
within such time period and to liquidating distributions from assets outside the trust account and (D) vote any Founder Shares held by
them and any Public Shares purchased during or after this offering (including in open market and privately-negotiated transactions) in
favor of our initial business combination (except that any Public Shares such parties may purchase in compliance with the requirements
of Rule 14e-5 under the Exchange Act would not be voted in favor of approving the business combination transaction), (iv) the Founder
Shares are automatically convertible into Class A ordinary shares concurrently with or immediately following the consummation of our
initial business combination or earlier at the option of the holder on a one-for-one basis, subject to adjustment as described herein
and in our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, and (v) prior to the closing of our initial business combination,
only holders of our Class B ordinary shares will be entitled to vote on the appointment and removal of directors or continuing the company
in a jurisdiction outside the British Virgin Islands (including any ordinary resolution required to amend our constitutional documents
or to adopt new constitutional documents, in each case, as a result of our approving a transfer by way of continuation in a jurisdiction
outside the British Virgin Islands).
F-10
With
certain limited exceptions, the Founder Shares are not transferable, assignable or saleable (except to our officers and directors and
other persons or entities affiliated with our sponsor, each of whom will be subject to the same transfer restrictions) until the completion
of our initial business combination.
Promissory
Note — A Related Party
On
June 4, 2025, the Sponsor issued an unsecured promissory note to the Company, pursuant to which the Company may borrow up to an aggregate
principal amount of $350,000, to be used for payment of costs related to the Initial Public Offering. On November 28, 2025, the Promissory
Note was amended to extend the payable date from December 31, 2025 to December 31, 2026 pursuant to the First Amendment to Promissory
Note and increased the aggregate principal amount to $500,000. On February 13, 2026, the Promissory Note was further amended to extend
the payable date from December 31, 2026 to June 30, 2027. The note is non-interest bearing and payable on the earlier of (i) June 30,
2027 or (ii) the consummation of the Initial Public Offering. These amounts will be repaid upon completion of the Initial Public Offering
out of the $700,000 of Initial Public Offering proceeds that has been allocated for the payment of Initial Public Offering expenses.
The Sponsor has offset $25,000 subscription fee with the Promissory Note. As of May 1, 2026, there are $265,577 Promissory Note outstanding.
Administrative
Services Arrangement
An
affiliate of our Sponsor has agreed, commencing from the date that the Company’s securities are first listed on Nasdaq, through
the earlier of the Company’s consummation of a Business Combination and its liquidation, to make available to the Company our Sponsor
certain office space, utilities and secretarial and administrative support as may be reasonably required by the Company. The Company
has agreed to pay to the affiliate of our Sponsor, $20,000 per month, for up to 12 months, subject to extension to up to 15 months, as
provided in the Company’s registration statement, for such administrative services.
Related
Party Loans
In
order to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Company’s Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor,
or the Company’s officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds as may be required (“Working
Capital Loans”). Up to $2,500,000 of such loans may be convertible into private units, at a price of $10.00 per unit, at the option
of the applicable lender. In the event that a Business Combination does not close, the Company may use a portion of proceeds held outside
the Trust Account to repay the Working Capital Loans, but no proceeds held in the Trust Account would be used to repay the Working Capital
Loans. As of May 1, 2026, no amounts under such loans have been drawn.
Representative
Shares
The
Company has issued to the representatives and/or their designees, 483,000 Class A ordinary shares upon the consummation of the Initial
Public Offering as part of representative compensation, whereby 383,000 Class A ordinary shares were issued to ARC Group Securities
LLC and 100,000 Class A ordinary shares were issued to IB Capital LLC, as the qualified independent underwriter (the “Representative
Shares”). The Representative Shares have been deemed compensation by FINRA and are therefore subject to a lock-up for a period
of 180 days immediately following the commencement of sales of this offering pursuant to FINRA Rule 5110(e)(1), however, the representative
of the underwriters have agreed to a lock-up of 180 days from the closing date of the Company’s initial business combination, which
is beyond the required 180 day lock-up immediately following the date of the commencement of sales in this offering pursuant to FINRA
Rule 5110(e)(1). Pursuant to this FINRA lock-up, these securities cannot be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated or the
subject of any hedging, short sale, derivative, put or call transaction that would result in the economic disposition of the securities
by any person for a period of 180 days from the commencement of sales of the Initial Public Offering except as permitted under FINRA
Rule 5110(e)(2), including to any underwriter and selected dealer participating in the Initial Public Offering and their officers or
partners, registered persons or affiliates, however, the representative of the underwriters have agreed to a lock-up of 180 days from
the closing date of the Company’s initial business combination, which is beyond the required 180 day lock-up immediately following
the date of the commencement of sales in this offering pursuant to FINRA Rule 5110(e)(1). The Representative Shares have resale registration
rights including two demand (one at the Company’s expense and one at ARC Group Securities LLC’s expense) and unlimited “piggy-back”
rights for periods of five and seven years, respectively, from the commencement of sales of the Initial Public Offering.

6. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Registration
Rights
The
holders of the (i) Founder Shares, which were issued in a private placement prior to the closing of the Initial Public Offering, (ii)
Private Units (including the component securities as well as any securities underlying those component securities), which was issued
in a private placement simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering and (iii) private units (including the component
securities as well as any securities underlying those component securities) that may be issued upon conversion of working capital loans
will have registration rights to require the Company to register a sale of any of our securities held by them and any other securities
of the company acquired by them prior to the consummation of a Business Combination pursuant to a registration rights agreement to be

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 Business Combination. The registration
rights granted to the underwriters are limited to two demand (one at the Company’s expense and one at the underwriters’ expense)
and unlimited “piggy-back” rights for periods of five and seven years, respectively, from the commencement of sales of the
Initial Public Offering. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.
In addition, for as long as the representative shares are held by ARC Group Securities LLC and IB Capital LLC or their respective designees
or affiliates, they will be subject to the lock-up and registration rights limitations imposed by FINRA Rule 5110.
Underwriting
Agreement
The
Company has granted the underwriters a 45-day option to purchase up to 1,575,000 additional Units to cover over-allotments at the Initial
Public Offering price, less the underwriting discounts and commissions.
The

to 483,000 Representative Shares at closing of the Initial Public Offering, whereby 383,000 Class A ordinary shares were issued to ARC
Group Securities LLC and 100,000 Class A ordinary shares were issued to IB Capital LLC, as the qualified independent underwriter. The
underwriters were not entitled to any deferred underwriting fee upon closing of the Business Combination. On May 1, 2026, the over-allotment
option has exercised in full.
NOTE
7. SHAREHOLDER’S EQUITY
Preference
Shares — The Company is authorized to issue 5,000,000 preference shares with a par value of $0.0001 per share. Holders
of the Company’s ordinary shares are entitled to one vote for each share. With such designations, voting and other rights and preferences
as may be determined from time to time by the Company’s board of directors. On May 1, 2026, there were no preference shares issued
or outstanding.
Class
A Ordinary Shares — The Company is authorized to issue 500,000,000 Class A ordinary shares with a par value of $0.0001
per share. Holders of the Company’s Class A ordinary shares are entitled to one vote for each share. On May 1, 2026, there were
683,000 Class A ordinary shares issued or outstanding (excluding 12,075,000 Class A ordinary shares were classified as temporary equity
in the balance sheet).
F-12
Class
B Ordinary Shares — The Company is authorized to issue 50,000,000 Class B ordinary shares with a par value of $0.0001
per share. Holders of the Company’s Class B ordinary shares are entitled to one vote for each share. On December 31, 2025, there
were 7,392,857 Class B ordinary shares issued and outstanding. On May 27, 2025, the Company issued an aggregate of 12,321,429 Class B
ordinary shares to the Sponsor for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000 in cash, of which 1,607,143 Class B shares held by the Sponsor
were subject to forfeiture to the extent that the underwriter’s over-allotment option is not exercised in full.
On
December 3, 2025, our sponsor surrendered 4,928,572 Class B ordinary shares it held for no consideration, leaving sponsor with 7,392,857
Class B ordinary shares for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000 (up to 964,286 of which are subject to forfeiture by the holders thereof
depending on the extent to which the underwriter’s over-allotment option is exercised). On April 6, 2026 pursuant to the second
downsize of the Proposed Public Offering, our sponsor further surrendered 2,217,857 Class B ordinary shares for no consideration, leaving
sponsor with 5,175,000 Class B ordinary shares for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000 (up to 675,000 which are subject to forfeiture
by the holders thereof depending on the extent to which the underwriter’s over-allotment option is exercised). As of May 1, 2026,
the Company has 5,175,000 Class B ordinary shares issued and outstanding. Following underwriter’s full exercise of over-allotment
option on May 1, 2026, no ordinary shares were subject to forfeiture.
The
Class B ordinary shares will automatically convert into Class A ordinary shares concurrently with or immediately following the consummation
of our initial business combination, or at any time prior thereto at the option of the holder thereof, on a one-for-one basis, subject
to adjustment as provided herein. Because our sponsor acquired the Class B ordinary shares at a nominal price, our public shareholders
incurred an immediate and substantial dilution upon the closing of this offering, assuming no value is ascribed to the warrants and rights
included in the units. In the case that additional Class A ordinary shares, or equity-linked securities (as described herein), are issued
or deemed issued in excess of the amounts issued in this offering and related to the closing of our initial business combination, the
ratio at which the Class B ordinary shares will convert into Class A ordinary shares will be adjusted (unless the holders of a majority
of the issued and outstanding Class B ordinary shares agree to waive such anti-dilution adjustment with respect to any such issuance
or deemed issuance) so that the number of Class A ordinary shares issuable upon conversion of all Class B ordinary shares will equal,
in the aggregate, 28.8% of the sum of (i) the total number of all Class A ordinary shares outstanding upon the completion of this offering
(including any Class A ordinary shares issued pursuant to the underwriters’ over-allotment option and excluding the Class A ordinary
shares that are included within the private units), plus (ii) all Class A ordinary shares and equity-linked securities issued or deemed
issued, in connection with the closing of the initial business combination (excluding any shares or equity-linked securities issued,
or to be issued, to any seller in the initial business combination and any units issued to our sponsor or any of its affiliates or to
our officers or directors upon conversion of working capital loans) minus (iii) any redemptions of Class A ordinary shares by public
shareholders in connection with an initial business combination; provided that such conversion of Founder Shares will never occur on
a less than one-for-one basis.
Holders
of record of the Company’s Class A ordinary shares and Class B ordinary shares are entitled to one vote for each share held on
all matters to be voted on by shareholders. Unless specified in the amended and restated memorandum and articles of association or as
required by the Companies Act or stock exchange rules, an ordinary resolution under British Virgin Islands law and the amended and restated
memorandum and articles of association, which requires the affirmative vote of at least a majority of the votes cast by such shareholders
as, being entitled to do so, vote in person or, where proxies are allowed, by proxy at the applicable general meeting of the company
is generally required to approve any matter voted on by the Company’s shareholders. Approval of certain actions require an ordinary
resolution under British Virgin Islands law, which (except as specified below) requires the affirmative vote of in excess of 50 percent
of the votes cast by such shareholders as, being entitled to do so, vote in person or, where proxies are allowed, by proxy at the applicable
general meeting, and pursuant to the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, such actions include
amending the amended and restated memorandum and articles of association and approving a statutory merger or consolidation with another
company. There is no cumulative voting with respect to the appointment of directors, meaning, following the Company’s initial Business
Combination, the holders of more than 50% of the Class A ordinary shares and Class B ordinary shares voted for the appointment of directors
can elect all of the directors. Prior to the consummation of the initial Business Combination, only holders of the Class B ordinary shares
will (i) have the right to vote on the appointment and removal of directors and (ii) be entitled to vote on continuing the Company in
a jurisdiction outside the British Virgin Islands (including any ordinary resolution required to amend the constitutional documents or
to adopt new constitutional documents, in each case, as a result of approving a transfer by way of continuation in a jurisdiction outside
the British Virgin Islands). Holders of the Class A ordinary shares will not be entitled to vote on these matters during such time. These
provisions of our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association may only be amended if approved by an ordinary resolution
passed by the affirmative vote of the holders representing at least 90% of the issued Class B ordinary shares.
F-13
Warrants
— Warrants may only be exercised for a whole number of shares. No fractional shares will be issued upon exercise of the
Warrants. The Warrants will become exercisable 30 days after the completion of our initial business combination, provided that the Company
has an effective registration statement under the Securities Act covering the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants
and a current prospectus relating to them is available and such shares are registered, qualified or exempt from registration under the
securities, or blue sky, laws of the state of residence of the holder (or we permit holders to exercise their warrants on a cashless
basis under the circumstances specified in the warrant agreement). If a registration statement covering the Class A ordinary shares issuable
upon exercise of the warrants is not effective by the 60th business day after the closing of our initial business combination, warrant
holders may, until such time as there is an effective registration statement and during any period when we will have failed to maintain
an effective registration statement, exercise warrants on a “cashless basis” in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities
Act or another exemption. Notwithstanding the above, if our Class A ordinary shares are at the time of any exercise of a warrant not
listed on a national securities exchange such that they satisfy the definition of a “covered security” under Section 18(b)(1)
of the Securities Act, we may, at our option, require holders of Public 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 we so elect, we will not be required to file
or maintain in effect a registration statement. The Warrants will expire five years from the consummation of a Business Combination or
earlier upon redemption or liquidation.
The
Company may call the Warrants for redemption:
●
in
whole and not in part;
●
at
a price of $0.01 per warrant;
●
upon
a minimum of 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption (the “30-day redemption period”); and
●
if,
and only if, the closing price of the Class A ordinary shares equals or exceeds $18.00 per share (as adjusted for adjustments to
the number of shares issuable upon exercise or the exercise price of a warrant) for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period
commencing at least 30 days after completion of our initial business combination and ending three business days before we send the
notice of redemption to the warrant holders.
The
Private Warrants will be identical to the warrants sold in this offering except that, so long as they are held by our sponsor or its
permitted transferees, the Private Warrants (i) are locked-up until the completion of our initial business combination and (ii) will
be entitled to registration rights.
The
exercise price and number of Class A ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants may be adjusted for share sub-divisions,
share capitalizations, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like. Additionally, in no event will the Company be required to net
cash settle the warrants. If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period and the Company liquidates
the funds held in the Trust Account, holders of warrants will not receive any of such funds with respect to their warrants, nor will
they receive any distribution from the Company’s assets held outside of the Trust Account with respect to such warrants. Accordingly,
the warrants may expire worthless.
F-14
The
exercise price is $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment as described herein. In addition, if (x) we issue additional Class A ordinary
shares or equity-linked securities for capital raising purposes in connection with the closing of our initial business combination at
an issue price or effective issue price of less than $9.20 per Class A ordinary share (with such issue price or effective issue price
to be determined in good faith by our board of directors and, in the case of any such issuance to our initial shareholders or their affiliates,
without taking into account any Founder Shares held by our initial shareholders or such affiliates, as applicable, prior to such issuance)
(the “Newly Issued Price”), (y) the aggregate gross proceeds from such issuances represent more than 60% of the total equity
proceeds (including from such issuances and this offering), and interest thereon, available for the funding of our initial business combination
on the date of the consummation of our initial business combination (net of redemptions), and (z) the volume weighted average trading
price of our Class A ordinary shares during the 20 trading day period starting on the trading day prior to the day on which we consummate
our initial business combination (such price, the “Market Value”) is below $9.20 per share, then the exercise price of the
warrants will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 115% of the higher of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price, and
the $18.00 per share redemption trigger prices will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 180% of the higher of the Market
Value and the Newly Issued Price.
Rights — Except
in cases where the Company is not the surviving company in a business combination, each holder of a right will automatically receive
one-quarter (1/4) of one Class A ordinary share upon consummation of the initial Business Combination. The Company will not issue fractional
shares in connection with an exchange of rights. Fractional shares will either be rounded down to the nearest whole share or otherwise
addressed in accordance with the applicable provisions of BVI law. In the event the Company is not the surviving company upon completion
of the initial Business Combination, each holder of a right will be required to affirmatively convert his, her or its rights in order
to receive the one-quarter (1/4) of one Class A ordinary share underlying each right upon consummation of the Business Combination. If
the Company is unable to complete the initial Business Combination within the required time period and the Company will redeem 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.
NOTE
8. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The
fair value of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities reflects management’s estimate of amounts that the Company would
have received in connection with the sale of the assets or paid in connection with the transfer of the liabilities in an orderly transaction
between market participants at the measurement date. In connection with measuring the fair value of its assets and liabilities, the Company
seeks to maximize the use of observable inputs (market data obtained from independent sources) and to minimize the use of unobservable
inputs (internal assumptions about how market participants would price assets and liabilities). The following fair value hierarchy is
used to classify assets and liabilities based on the observable inputs and unobservable inputs used in order to value the assets and
liabilities:
Level
1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. An active market for an asset or liability is a market in which
transactions for the asset or liability occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.
Level
2: Observable inputs other than Level 1 inputs. Examples of Level 2 inputs include quoted prices in active markets for similar assets
or liabilities and quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.
Level
3: Unobservable inputs based on our assessment of the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.
The
following table presents information about the Company’s assets that are measured at fair value as of May 1, 2026, and indicates
the fair value hierarchy of the valuation inputs the Company utilized to determine such fair value:
Level

Fair value of Public Rights for Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption allocation

$ 6,967,275
F-15
The
fair values of Public Warrants and Private Warrants were determined using Binomial/Lattice Model. The Public Warrants and Private
Warrants have been classified within shareholders’ equity and will not require remeasurement after issuance. The fair values of
Public Rights and Private Rights were determined using Probability-Weighted Expected Return Method. Both Public Rights and Private Rights
have been classified within shareholders’ equity and are not subject to subsequent remeasurement. The following table presents

NOTE
9. 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
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 chief operating decision maker has been identified as the Chief Financial Officer (“CODM”), who reviews the
operating results for the Company as a whole to make decisions about allocating resources and assessing financial performance. Accordingly,
management has determined that the Company only has one operating segment.
When
evaluating the Company’s performance and making key decisions regarding resource allocation the CODM reviews several key metrics,
which include the following:
For the Period from January 1, 2026 through May 1, 2026
For the
Period from
May 27,
2025 (inception)
through
December 31, 2025
(Audited)
Cash held in the Trust Account
$ 120,750,000
$ -
Formation and operating costs
$ (30,220 )
$ (44,400 )
The
key measures of segment profit or loss reviewed by our CODM are interest earned on investment in Trust Account and formation and operating
costs. The CODM reviews interest earned on investments held in Trust Account to measure and monitor shareholder value and determine the
most effective strategy of investment with the Trust Account funds while maintaining compliance with the trust agreement. Within the
operating expenses, the CODM specifically reviews professional service fees, which are a significant segment expense, and include legal
fees and advisory fees. These expenses are monitored to manage and forecast cash available to complete a Business Combination within
the required period. Other general and administrative expenses, including accounting expenses, printing expenses, and regulatory filing
fees, are reviewed in the aggregate to ensure alignment with budget and contractual obligations. Funds invested in the Trust Account
represent the predominant portion of the Company’s total assets and are monitored by the CODM to determine the most effective strategy
of investment with the Trust Account funds, while maintaining compliance with the trust agreement.
NOTE
10. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
In
accordance with ASC Topic 855, “Subsequent Events”, which establishes general standards of accounting for and disclosure
of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued, the Company has evaluated all events or
transactions that occurred through the date the audited financial statements were available to issue. Based upon this review, the Company
did not identify any subsequent events that would have required adjustment or disclosure in the financial statements.
