FEUTUNE LIGHT ACQUISITION CORPORATION

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENT

 

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 has not selected any Business Combination target and it has not, nor has anyone on its behalf, initiated any substantive discussions, directly or indirectly, with any Business Combination target with respect to the Business Combination. The Company is not limited to a particular industry or geographic region for purposes of consummating an initial Business Combination. The Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation prohibit the Company from undertaking an 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 21, 2022, the Company had not commenced any operations. For the period from January 19, 2022 (inception) through June 21, 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 “Class A Common Stock”), and one redeemable warrant and one right to receive one-tenth (1/10) of one share of Class A Common Stock. Each whole warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one share of Class A Common Stock at an exercise price of $11.50 per share. The Units were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per Public Unit, generating gross proceeds of $97,750,000.

 

Substantially concurrently with the closing of the IPO, the Company completed the sale 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, one redeemable warrant with each warrant to acquire one share of Class A Common Stock, and one right to receive one-tenth of one share of Class A Common Stock.

 

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 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, the representatives have agreed (i) to waive their redemption rights with respect to such shares in connection with the completion of the Company’s initial Business Combination and (ii) to waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account (as defined below) with respect to such shares if the Company fails to complete its initial Business Combination within 9 months of the closing of the IPO (or 18 months, if the Company extends the time to complete a Business Combination).

 

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. As of June 21, 2022, cash of $1,029,523 were held outside of the Trust Account (as defined below) and is available for the payment of offering costs, for the repayment of related party promissory note, and for working capital purposes.

Following the closing of the IPO and the issuance and the sale of Private Placement Units on June 21, 2022, $99,216,250 ($10.15 per Public Unit) was placed into 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 will be 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 of 1940, as amended (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 of Class A Common Stock sold in the IPO (the “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 9 months (or up to 18 months if the Company extends the period of time to complete a Business Combination) from the closing of 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.

 

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 (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. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to complete a Business Combination successfully.

 

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 only 9 months (or up to 18 months if the Company extends the period of time to complete a Business Combination) 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.

 

F-5

 

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 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 6), shares of Class A Common Stock (the “Private Shares”) sold in the Private Placement, 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 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.

 

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, 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) 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 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 21, 2022.

 

Investments held in Trust Account

 

At June 21, 2022, $99,216,250 of the assets held in the Trust Account were held in money market funds, which are invested in U.S. Treasury securities.

 

The Company classifies its U.S. Treasury and equivalent securities as held-to-maturity in accordance with ASC Topic 320 “Investments — Debt and Equity Securities.” Held-to-maturity securities are those securities which the Company has the ability and intent to hold until maturity. Held-to-maturity treasury securities are recorded at amortized cost on the accompanying balance sheet and adjusted for the amortization or accretion of premiums or discounts.

 

F-7

 

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”) Accounting Standards Codification (“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 ordinary shares 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 21, 2022, common stock subject to possible redemption are presented at redemption value of $10.15 per share as temporary equity, outside of the stockholders’ 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 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.

 

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 21, 2022, approximately $100.0 million was over the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) limit.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities approximates the carrying amounts represented in the accompanying balance sheet, primarily due to their short-term nature.

 

F-8

 

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 21, 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’s tax provision is zero for the period from January 19, 2022 (inception) through June 21, 2022.

 

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 financial statements.

 

Note 3 —Investments Held in Trust Account

 

As of June 21, 2022, assets held in the Trust Account were comprised of $99,216,250 in money market funds which are invested in U.S. Treasury Securities.

 

The following table presents information about the Company’s assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis at June 21, 2022 and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation inputs the Company utilized to determine such fair value:

Note 4 — Initial Public Offering

 

Pursuant to the IPO on June 21, 2022, the Company sold 9,775,000 Units at $10.00 per Public Unit, generating gross proceeds of $97,750,000. Each unit has an offering price of $10.00 and consists of one share of the Company’s Class A Common Stock, one redeemable warrant and one right to receive one-tenth of one share of Class A Common Stock. Each redeemable warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one share Class A Common Stock at a price of $11.50 per full share. 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.

 

F-9

 

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 21, 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 unit consists of one share of Class A Common Stock, one redeemable warrant with each warrant to acquire one share of Class A Common Stock, and one right to receive one-tenth of one share of Class A Common Stock. The Sponsor will be permitted to transfer the Private Placement Units held by them to certain permitted transferees, including the Company’s officers and directors and other persons 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 initial stockholders 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 the Company’s 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.

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 21, 2022, there were 2,443,750 Founder Shares issued and outstanding.

F-10

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.

The Company accounted for the rights as an expense of the IPO resulting in a charge directly to stockholders’ equity. The Company estimates that the fair value of the rights is approximately $1.3 million, or $0.13 per Unit, based on market comparable of special purpose acquisition companies who were pre-business combination and included rights as part of their units that were publicly trading with significant time remaining to complete the initial business combination.

The “Fair Market Value” shall mean 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 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 estimates that the fair value of the public warrants is approximately $2.7 million, or $0.271 per Unit, using the Monte Carlo Model.
