RF Acquisition Corp III

Opinion on the Financial Statement

We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of RF Acquisition Corp III (the “Company”) as of February 17, 2026, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statement”). In our opinion, the financial statement presents fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of February 17, 2026, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinion

This financial statement is the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statement 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 statement is 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 statement, 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 statement. 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 statement. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

NOTE 1 — ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS

RF Acquisition Corp III (the “Company”) is a Cayman Islands exempted company formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization, or similar business combination with one or more businesses (a “Business Combination”). The Company intends to pursue a Business Combination with a target in any industry that can benefit from the expertise and capabilities of the Company’s management team. While the Company’s efforts in identifying prospective target businesses will not be limited to a particular geographic region, the Company intends to focus its search on businesses in Asia within the deep technology sector, including artificial intelligence, quantum computing, and biotechnology. 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.

As of February 17, 2026, the Company had not commenced any operations. All activity for the period from September 15, 2025 (inception) through February 17, 2026 relates to the Company’s formation and the initial public offering (the “Initial Public Offering”), which is described below. The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of an initial Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company will generate non-operating income in the form of interest income from the proceeds derived from the Initial Public Offering. The Company has selected September 30 as its fiscal year end.

The registration statement for the Company’s Initial Public Offering was declared effective on January 30, 2026. On February 17, 2026, the Company consummated the Initial Public Offering of 10,000,000 units (the “Units” and, with respect to the ordinary shares included in the Units being offered, the “Public Shares”) at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $100,000,000. Each Unit consists of one Public Share and one right (“Share Right”) to receive one-tenth (1/10) of one ordinary share upon the consummation of an initial Business Combination (“Public Right”).

Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the sale of 350,000 units (the “Private Placement Units”) at a price of $10.00 per Private Placement Unit, in a private placement to the Company’s sponsor, Alfa 30 Limited (the “Sponsor”) and EarlyBirdCapital, Inc., the representative of the underwriters in the Initial Public Offering (“EBC”), at a price of $10.00 per Private Placement Unit, generating gross proceeds of $3,500,000. Of the 350,000 Private Placement Units, the Sponsor and its designees purchased 250,000 Private Placement Units and EBC purchased 100,000 Private Placement Units. Each Private Placement Unit consists of one Private Placement Share and one Right to receive one-tenth (1/10) of one ordinary share upon the consummation of an initial Business Combination (“Private Placement Right”).

Transaction costs amounted to $4,708,386, consisting of $2,000,000 of cash underwriting fee, fair value of EBC founder shares of $501,500, fair value of Founder Shares transferred to third-party designees of $1,747,800, and $458,086 of other offering costs.

The Company’s management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and the sale of the Private Placement Units, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be applied generally toward consummating a Business Combination. Pursuant to applicable stock exchange listing rules, the Company’s initial Business Combination must be with one or more businesses or assets with a fair market value equal to at least 80% of the assets held in the Trust Account (as defined below) (excluding income interest earned on the Trust Account and released to the Company to pay taxes). The Company intends to only complete a Business Combination if the post-Business Combination company owns or acquires 50% or more of the issued and outstanding voting securities of the target or otherwise acquires a controlling interest in the target business sufficient for it not to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”). There is no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully effect a Business Combination.

NOTE 1 — ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS (cont.)

Following the closing of the Initial Public Offering, on February 17, 2026, an amount of $100,000,000 ($10.00 per Unit) from the net proceeds of the sale of the Units and the Private Placement Units was placed in the trust account (the “Trust Account”), located in the United States, with Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company acting as trustee, and held in demand deposit or cash accounts or invested only in U.S. government securities, within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act, with a maturity of 185 days or less, or in any open-ended investment company that holds itself out as a money market fund investing solely in U.S. Treasuries and meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act, as determined by the Company, until the earlier of (i) the completion of a Business Combination and (ii) the distribution of the funds in the Trust Account to the Company’s shareholders, as described below.

The Company will provide the holders of the outstanding Public Shares (the “Public Shareholders”) with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares either (i) in connection with a shareholder meeting called to approve the Business Combination or (ii) by means of a tender offer in connection with the Business Combination. The decision as to whether the Company will seek shareholder approval of a Business Combination or conduct a tender offer will be made by the Company in its sole discretion subject to requirements of corporate law. The Public Shareholders will be entitled to redeem their Public Shares for a pro rata portion of the amount then in the Trust Account (initially anticipated to be $10.00 per Public Share, plus any pro rata interest then in the Trust Account, net of taxes payable). The Public Shares subject to possible redemption were recorded at a redemption value and classified as temporary equity at the completion of the Initial Public Offering in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.”

If the Company seeks shareholder approval of the Business Combination, the Company will proceed with a Business Combination only if the Company receives an ordinary resolution under Cayman Islands law approving a Business Combination, which requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the shareholders who attend and vote at a general meeting of the Company, or such other vote as required by law or stock exchange rule. If a shareholder vote is not required and the Company does not decide to hold a shareholder vote for business or other legal reasons, the Company will, pursuant to its Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, conduct the redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), and file tender offer documents containing substantially the same information as would be included in a proxy statement with the SEC prior to completing a Business Combination. If the Company seeks shareholder approval in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor has agreed to vote its Founder Shares (as defined in Note 5) and, subject to applicable securities laws, any Public Shares purchased during or after the Initial Public Offering in favor of approving a Business Combination. Additionally, each Public Shareholder may elect to redeem their Public Shares, without voting, and if they do vote, irrespective of whether they vote for or against a Business Combination, and irrespective of whether they do not vote or abstain from voting their shares.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company seeks shareholder approval of the Business Combination and the Company does not conduct redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules, a Public Shareholder, together with any affiliate of such shareholder or any other person with whom such shareholder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined under Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), will be restricted from redeeming its shares with respect to more than an aggregate of 15% of the Public Shares without the Company’s prior written consent.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENT

FEBRUARY 17, 2026

NOTE 1 — ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS (cont.)

Our initial shareholders, including the Sponsor, and EBC have agreed (a) to waive their redemption rights with respect to any Founder Shares, EBC founder shares (as defined in Note 6), Private Shares in connection with the completion of a Business Combination, (b) to waive their redemption rights with respect to their Founder Shares, EBC founder shares and private shares in connection with a shareholder vote to approve an amendment to the amended and restated memorandum and articles of association to (1) modify the substance or timing of the obligation to provide for the redemption of the public shares in connection with an initial Business Combination or to redeem 100% of the public shares if the Company does not complete the initial Business Combination within 21 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering or (2) with respect to any other material provisions relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-initial Business Combination activity, and (c) to waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to any Founder Shares, EBC founder shares and private shares held by them if the Company fails to complete the initial Business Combination within 21 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering. If the Company submits the initial Business Combination to the public shareholders for a vote, the Sponsor and the Company’s officers and directors have agreed (and their permitted transferees will agree) to vote any Founder Shares, private shares and, subject to applicable securities laws, any public shares purchased by them in or after this Initial Public Offering (including in open market and privately-negotiated transactions) in favor of an initial Business Combination.

The Company will have until 21 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering to consummate a Business Combination (the “Combination Period”). However, if the Company has not completed a Business Combination within the Combination Period and the Combination Period is not extended by shareholders pursuant to an amendment to the Company’s amended and restated articles of association, 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 100% of 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 and not previously released to the Company to pay its taxes, if any (less $100,000 to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then issued and outstanding Public Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish the rights of the Public Shareholders as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidating distributions, if any), and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the Company’s remaining Public Shareholders and its Board of Directors, liquidate and dissolve, subject in each case to the Company’s obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law.

The Sponsor has agreed to waive its rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to the Founder Shares it would receive if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period. However, if the Sponsor or any of its affiliates acquires Public Shares, such Public Shares will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period.

In order to protect the amounts held in the Trust Account, 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 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 the lesser of (1) $10.00 per Public Share and (2) 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 trust assets, in each case net of the interest that may be withdrawn to pay taxes. This liability will not apply to any claims by a third party who executed a waiver of any and all rights to seek access to the Trust Account and as to any claims by the Company’s auditors or under the Company’s indemnity of the underwriters of the Initial Public Offering against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). In the event that an executed waiver is deemed to be unenforceable against a third party, the Sponsor will not be responsible to the extent of any liability for such third-party claims. The Company will seek to reduce the possibility that the Sponsor will have to indemnify the Trust Account due to claims of creditors by endeavoring to have all vendors, service providers, prospective target businesses or other entities with which the Company does business, execute agreements with the Company waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to monies held in the Trust Account.

NOTE 2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying financial statement has been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company’s liquidity needs up to February 17, 2026 had been satisfied through the loan under an unsecured promissory note from the Sponsor of up to $150,000, which has become due on demand. As of February 17, 2026, the Company had cash of $1,152,138 and working capital of $584,394.

In order to fund working capital deficiencies or 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 is not obligated to, loan the Company funds as may be required (the “Working Capital Loans”). If the Company completes a Business Combination, the Company would repay such loaned amounts at that time. Up to $1,500,000 of such Working Capital Loans may be converted into units upon consummation of the Business Combination at a price of $10.00 per unit. The units would be identical to the Private Placement Units. As of February 17, 2026, the Company had no borrowings under the Working Capital Loans.

In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 205-40, “Presentation of Financial Statements - Going Concern,” the Company does not believe it will need to raise additional funds in order to meet the expenditures required for operating its business. However, if the estimate of the costs of identifying a target business, undertaking in-depth due diligence and negotiating a Business Combination are less than the actual amount necessary to do so, the Company may have insufficient funds available to operate its business prior to the initial Business Combination. The Company has the Combination Period to complete the initial Business Combination. Management has determined that the Company has sufficient funds to finance the working capital needs of the Company within one year from the date of issuance of the financial statement.

Emerging Growth Company

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, as amended (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 independent registered public accounting firm 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. 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 statement 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.

NOTE 2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.)

Use of Estimates

The preparation of this financial statement in conformity with US GAAP requires the Company’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statement.

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 statement, 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 $1,152,138 in cash and no cash equivalents as of February 17, 2026.

Cash Held in Trust Account

As of February 17, 2026, the assets held in the Trust Account, amounting to $100,155,913, were held in cash. The cash held in Trust Account includes an over-funding of $155,913 by the Sponsor which was included in Due to Sponsor line in the accompanying balance sheet (Note 5).

Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of a cash account in a financial institution, which, at times, may exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation coverage limit of $250,000. Any loss incurred or a lack of access to such funds could have a significant adverse impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.

Offering Costs

The Company complies with the requirements of the FASB ASC 340-10-S99 and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 5A, “Expenses of Offering”. Offering costs consist principally of professional and registration fees that are related to the Initial Public Offering. 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 Units between ordinary shares and Share Rights, using the residual method by allocating Initial Public Offering proceeds first to the assigned value of the Public Rights and then to the ordinary shares. Offering costs allocated to the Public Shares were charged to temporary equity, and offering costs allocated to Public Rights and Private Placement Units were charged to shareholders’ equity, as the Share Rights, after management’s evaluation, were accounted for under equity treatment.

Income Taxes

The Company follows the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes under FASB ASC 740, “Income Taxes.” Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statements carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that included the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENT

FEBRUARY 17, 2026

NOTE 2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.)

FASB ASC 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. The Company’s management determined that the Cayman Islands is the Company’s major tax jurisdiction. 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 February 17, 2026. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals, or material deviation from its position. The Company may be subject to potential examination by foreign taxing authorities in the area 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 foreign tax laws. The Company’s management does not expect that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits will materially change over the next twelve months.

The Company is considered to be an exempted Cayman Islands company and is presently not subject to income taxes or income tax filing requirements in the Cayman Islands or the United States. In accordance with Cayman income tax regulations, income taxes are not levied on the Company. Consequently, income taxes are not reflected in the Company’s financial statement.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under FASB ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurement,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the balance sheet, primarily due to their short-term nature.

Share Rights

The Company accounted for the Public Rights and Private Placement Rights 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 Share Rights under equity treatment at their assigned values.

Share-Based Compensation

The Company accounts for share awards in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718, “Compensation—Stock Compensation,” which requires that all equity awards be accounted for at their “fair value.” Fair value is measured on the grant date and is equal to the underlying value of the share.

Costs equal to these fair values are recognized ratably over the requisite service period based on the number of awards that are expected to vest, in the period of grant for awards that vest immediately and have no future service condition, or in the period the awards vest immediately after meeting a performance condition becomes probable (e.g., the occurrence of Initial Public Offering). For awards that vest over time, cumulative adjustments in later periods are recorded to the extent actual forfeitures differ from the Company’s initial estimates; previously recognized compensation cost is reversed if the service or performance conditions are not satisfied and the award is forfeited.

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. The underwriters’ over-allotment option is deemed to be a freestanding financial instrument indexed on the contingently redeemable shares and was accounted for as a liability pursuant to ASC 480 since the underwriters did not exercise their overallotment option at the closing of the Initial Public Offering.

NOTE 2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.)

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, if there is a shareholder vote (A) to modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to allow redemption in connection with a Business Combination or to redeem 100% of the Public Shares if the Company does not complete 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, 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 value. The change in the carrying value of redeemable shares will result in charges against additional paid-in capital (to the extent available) and accumulated deficit. Accordingly, as of February 17, 2026, the ordinary shares subject to possible redemption are presented at redemption value as temporary equity, outside of the shareholders’ equity section of the Company’s balance sheet. As of February 17, 2026, the ordinary shares subject to possible redemption reflected in the balance sheet are reconciled in the following table:

Gross proceeds	$	100,000,000
Less:
Proceeds allocated to Public Rights		(2,003,000	)
Proceeds allocated to over-allotment option		(220,800	)
Ordinary shares issuance cost		(2,862,987	)
Plus:
Accretion of carrying value to redemption value		5,086,787
Ordinary Shares subject to possible redemption, February 17, 2026	$	100,000,000

Recent Accounting Standards

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, “Segment reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures” (“ASU 2023-07”). The amendments in this ASU require disclosures, on an annual and interim basis, of significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), as well as the aggregate amount of other segment items included in the reported measure of segment profit or loss. The ASU requires that a public entity disclose the title and position of the CODM and an explanation of how the CODM uses the reported measure(s) of segment profit or loss in assessing segment performance and deciding how to allocate resources. Public entities will be required to provide all annual disclosures currently required by Topic 280 in interim periods, and entities with a single reportable segment are required to provide all the disclosures required by the amendments in this ASU and existing segment disclosures in Topic 280. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted ASU 2023-07 on September 15, 2025, the date of its incorporation.

Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s financial statement.

NOTE 3 — INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING

In the Initial Public Offering on February 17, 2026, the Company sold 10,000,000 Units at a price of $10.00 per Unit. Each Unit consists of one Public Share and one Public Right, with each Public Right entitling the holder to receive one-tenth (1/10) of one ordinary share upon the consummation of an initial Business Combination. Total offering costs allocated to the Initial Public Offering that were charged to additional paid-in capital amounted to $58,990.

NOTE 4 — PRIVATE PLACEMENTS

Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Sponsor and its designees and EBC, purchased an aggregate of 350,000 Private Placement Units, at a price of $10.00 per Private Placement Unit, or $3,500,000 in the aggregate, in a private placement, of which 250,000 Private Placement Units were purchased by the Sponsor and its designees, and 100,000 Private Placement Units were purchased by EBC. Each Unit consists of one Private Placement Share and one Private Placement Right, with each Private Placement Right entitling the holder to receive one-tenth of one ordinary share. A portion of the proceeds from the sale of the Private Placement Units were added to the net proceeds from the Initial Public Offering held in the Trust Account. If the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the proceeds from the sale of the Private Placement Units held in the Trust Account will be used to fund the redemption of the Public Shares (subject to the requirements of applicable law). The Private Placement Units and underlying securities will not be transferable, assignable, or salable until the completion of a Business Combination, subject to certain exceptions. Total offering costs allocated to the Private Placement Units that were charged to additional paid-in capital amounted to $1,763,325, which includes the impact of the fair value of Founder Shares transferred to third-party designees of $1,747,800.

Founder Shares

On September 30, 2025, the Sponsor received 3,833,333 of the Company’s ordinary shares (“Founder Shares”) in exchange for $25,000 paid to cover certain offering costs by the Company. Up to 500,000 of such Founder Shares are subject to forfeiture to the extent that the underwriters’ over-allotment is not exercised in full. On February 19, 2026, the underwriters elected to forfeit their over-allotment option to purchase up to an additional 1,500,000 Units, resulting in the subsequent forfeiture of the 500,000 Founder Shares (Note 10).

The Sponsor has agreed, subject to limited exceptions, not to transfer, assign or sell any of the Founder Shares until the earlier to occur of: (A) six months after the completion of the initial Business Combination and (B) the date on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, share exchange, reorganization or other similar transaction after the initial Business Combination that results in all public shareholders having the right to exchange their ordinary shares for cash, securities or other property.

On February 17, 2026, the Sponsor transferred 900,000 Founder Shares to the third-party designees of the Sponsor for their participation in the private placement of the Company. The Founder Shares transferred was placed into an escrow account maintained by Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company acting as escrow agent and will not be transferred, assigned, sold or released from escrow until six months after the consummation of the Business Combination, or earlier, if, the Company consummates a subsequent liquidation, merger, stock exchange or other similar transaction which results in all of our shareholders having the right to exchange their shares for cash, securities or other property. The transfer of the Founder Shares to the third-party designees is in the scope of SEC’s Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) Topic 5A, Expenses of Offering, which indicates that “Specific incremental costs directly attributable to a proposed or actual offering of securities may properly be deferred and charged against the gross proceeds of the offering”. The total fair value of the 900,000 Founder Shares on February 17, 2026 was $1,747,800 or $1.942 per share. The Company established the initial fair value of the Founder Shares on February 17, 2026, using Probability-Weighted Expected Return Method (“PWERM”) model, and classified as Level 3 at the measurement date due to the use of unobservable inputs including the probability of a Business Combination, the probability of the initial public offering, and other risk factors. The primary assumptions used in the valuation of Founder Shares were (i) share price of $9.7997 (ii) restricted term of 2.25 years (iii) risk-free rate of 3.44% (iv) volatility of 8.8% (v) likelihood of initial Business Combination of 20.4% and (vi) implied discount for lack of marketability of 3.0%. The fair value of Founder Shares transferred to third-party designees of $1,747,800 was recorded as offering costs and was allocated solely to the Private Placement Units that was charged to additional paid-in capital.

Promissory Note — Related Party

On September 30, 2025, the Sponsor has agreed to loan the Company an aggregate of $150,000 to be used for a portion of the expenses of the Initial Public Offering. The loans are non-interest bearing, unsecured and due at the closing of the Initial Public Offering. As of February 17, 2026, the Company had borrowed $150,000 under the promissory note with the Sponsor.

Due to Sponsor

Due to Sponsor presented on the balance sheet as of February 17, 2026 mainly represents the amounts wired by the Sponsor to the Company’s Trust Account in excess of the required Initial Public Offering funding.

Administration Fee

The Company entered into an agreement with the Sponsor commencing on February 12, 2026 through the earlier of the Company’s consummation of initial Business Combination and its liquidation, to pay an aggregate of $10,000 per month for office space, utilities, and secretarial and administrative support services.

Related Party Loans

In order to finance transaction costs in connection with an intended initial Business Combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor or certain of our officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds as may be required on a non-interest basis. If we complete an initial Business Combination, the Company would repay such loaned amounts. In the event that the initial Business Combination does not close, the Company may use amounts held outside the Trust Account to repay such loaned amounts but no proceeds from the Trust Account would be used for such repayment. Up to $1,500,000 of such loans may be convertible into units of the post Business Combination entity at a price of $10.00 per unit at the option of the lender. Such units would be identical to the Private Placement Units. Except as set forth above, the terms of such loans, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such loans. As of February 17, 2026, no such Working Capital Loans were outstanding.

Risks and Uncertainties

The United States and global markets are experiencing volatility and disruption following the geopolitical instability resulting from the ongoing Russia-Ukraine conflict and the Israel-Hamas conflict. In response to the ongoing Russia-Ukraine conflict, the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (“NATO”) deployed additional military forces to eastern Europe, and the United States, the United Kingdom, the European Union and other countries have announced various sanctions and restrictive actions against Russia, Belarus and related individuals and entities, including the removal of certain financial institutions from the Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication payment system. Certain countries, including the United States, have also provided and may continue to provide military aid or other assistance to Ukraine and to Israel, increasing geopolitical tensions among a number of nations. The invasion of Ukraine by Russia and the Israel-Hamas conflict and the resulting measures that have been taken, and could be taken in the future, by NATO, the United States, the United Kingdom, the European Union, Israel and its neighboring states and other countries have created global security concerns that could have a lasting impact on regional and global economies. Although the length and impact of the ongoing conflicts are highly unpredictable, they could lead to market disruptions, including significant volatility in commodity prices, credit and capital markets, as well as supply chain interruptions and increased cyberattacks against U.S. companies. Additionally, any resulting sanctions could adversely affect the global economy and financial markets and lead to instability and lack of liquidity in capital markets.

On July 4, 2025, President Trump signed into law the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”). FASB ASC 740, “Income Taxes”, requires the effects of changes in tax laws to be recognized in the period in which the legislation is enacted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the new law. However, none of the tax provisions are expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statement.

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 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.

Registration Rights

The holders of the Founder Shares, EBC founder shares, Private Placement Units and any units that may be issued upon conversion of working capital loans (and all underlying securities) are entitled to registration rights pursuant to a registration rights agreement signed on February 12, 2026 requiring the Company to register such securities for resale. The holders of these securities will be entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short form registration 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 completion of a Business Combination and rights to require the Company to register for resale such securities pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act. However, the registration rights agreement provides that the Company will not be required to effect or permit any registration or cause any registration statement to become effective until the securities covered thereby are released from their lock-up restrictions. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.

Underwriting Agreement

The Company granted the underwriters a 45-day option from the date of Initial Public Offering to purchase up to 1,500,000 additional Units to cover over-allotments, if any, at the Initial Public Offering price less the underwriting discounts and commissions. As of February 17, 2026, the full over-allotment option remains open. On February 19, 2026, the underwriters elected to forfeit their over-allotment option to purchase up to an additional 1,500,000 Units, resulting in the subsequent forfeiture of the 500,000 Founder Shares (Note 10).

The underwriters were entitled to a cash underwriting discount of $0.20 per Unit, or $2,000,000 in the aggregate, which was paid upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering.

On October 9, 2025, the Company issued to EBC 250,000 Ordinary Shares for a total consideration of $1,630 or approximately $0.007 per share (the “EBC founder shares”). The issuance of EBC founder shares is in the scope of FASB ASC 718. Under FASB ASC 718, share-based compensation associated with equity classified awards is measured at fair value upon the assignment date. Further, the issuance of the EBC founder shares should be accounted for as an offering cost in accordance with SAB Topic 5A, Expenses of Offering, since the EBC founder shares are deemed to be underwriters’ compensation by FINRA pursuant to Rule 5110 of the FINRA Manual. The Company estimated the fair value in excess of costs of the 250,000 EBC founder shares to be $501,500 or $2.006 per share based on the third-party valuation obtained by the Company. Accordingly, $501,500 has been recorded as a deferred offering costs on October 9, 2025, with a corresponding increase in additional paid-in capital. The Company established the initial fair value for the EBC founder shares on October 9, 2025, the date of the issuance, using PWERM model, and classified as Level 3 at the measurement date due to the use of unobservable inputs including the probability of a Business Combination, the probability of the initial public offering, and other risk factors. The primary assumptions used in the valuation of EBC founder shares were (i) share price of $9.769 (ii) restricted term of 2.75 years (iii) risk-free rate of 3.59% (iv) volatility of 8.3% (v) likelihood of initial Business Combination of 23.6% and (vi) implied discount for lack of marketability of 3.2%.

Business Combination Marketing Agreement

The Company engaged EBC as an advisor in connection with its Business Combination to assist in holding meetings with the Company stockholders to discuss the potential Business Combination and the target business’ attributes, introduce the Company to potential investors that are interested in purchasing its securities in connection with its initial Business Combination and assist with press releases and public filings in connection with the Business Combination. The Company will pay EBC a service fee for such services upon the consummation of its initial Business Combination in an amount equal to 3.5% of the gross proceeds (an aggregate amount of $3,500,000) of the Initial Public Offering. In addition, the Company will pay EBC a service fee in an amount equal to 1.0% of the total consideration payable in the initial Business Combination if it introduces the Company to the target business with whom it completes an initial Business Combination; provided that the foregoing fee will not be paid prior to the date that is 60 days from the effective date of the Initial Public Offering, unless FINRA determines that such payment would not be deemed underwriters’ compensation in connection with the Initial Public Offering pursuant to FINRA Rule 5110. In accordance with ASC 805-10-25-23, the Company will not recognize any expenses related to the Business Combination Marketing Agreement until and if the Business Combination closes as the Company has not incurred and will not incur any costs related to such services until and if a Business Combination is consummated successfully. Management has determined that the Business Combination Marketing Agreement fees are not payable as of February 17, 2026, and will only record a liability on the date of the Company’s 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 Cayman 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-tenth (1/10) of one 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 assessment of the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

NOTE 8 — FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS (cont.)

The over-allotment option was accounted for as a liability in accordance with FASB ASC 815-40 and was presented within liabilities on the balance sheet. The over-allotment option liability is measured at fair value at inception and on a recurring basis, with changes in fair value presented within changes in fair value of over-allotment option liability in the statement of operations.

The Company used a Black-Scholes model to value the over-allotment option. The over-allotment option liability was classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy at the measurement dates due to the use of unobservable inputs inherent in pricing models are assumptions related to expected share-price volatility, expected life and risk-free interest rate. The Company estimates the volatility of its ordinary shares based on historical volatility that matches the expected remaining life of the option. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury zero-coupon yield curve on the grant date for a maturity similar to the expected remaining life of the option. The expected life of the option is assumed to be equivalent to their remaining contractual term.

The key inputs into the Black-Scholes model were as follows at initial measurement of the over-allotment option:

	February 17, 2026
Risk-free interest rate		3.75	%
Expected term (years)		0.12
Volatility		8.8	%
Exercise price	$	9.80

The fair value of the Public Rights issued in the Initial Public Offering is $2,003,000, or $0.2003 per Public Right. The Public Rights have been classified within shareholders’ equity and will not require remeasurement after issuance. The Public Rights were classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy at the measurement dates due to the use of unobservable inputs inherent in assumptions related to the market adjustments as noted below. The following table presents the quantitative information regarding market assumptions used in the valuation of the Public Rights:

	February 17, 2026
Term (years)		1.75
Risk-free rate		3.44	%
Volatility		8.8	%
Implied discount for lack of marketability		2.7	%

NOTE 9 — SEGMENT INFORMATION

FASB ASC Topic 280, “Segment Reporting,” establishes standards for companies to report in their financial statement information about operating segments, products, services, geographic areas, and major customers. Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise that engage in business activities from which it may recognize revenues and incur expenses, and for which separate financial information is available that is regularly evaluated by the Company’s CODM, or group, in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance.

The Company’s CODM has been identified as the Chief Executive Officer, who reviews the assets, operating results, and financial metrics for the Company as a whole to make decisions about allocating resources and assessing financial performance. Accordingly, management has determined that the Company only has one reportable segment.

NOTE 9 — SEGMENT INFORMATION (cont.)

The CODM assesses performance for the single segment and decides how to allocate resources based on net income or loss that also is reported on the statement of operations as net income or loss. When evaluating the Company’s performance and making key decisions regarding resource allocation, the CODM reviews several key metrics, which include profit or loss comprised of general and administrative expenses.

The key measures of segment profit or loss reviewed by the CODM are general and administrative costs. General and administrative costs are reviewed and monitored by the CODM to manage and forecast cash to ensure enough capital is available to complete a Business Combination within the Combination period. The CODM also reviews general and administrative costs to manage, maintain and enforce all contractual agreements to ensure costs are aligned with all agreements and budget.

NOTE 10 — SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

The Company evaluated subsequent events and transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date and through the date that the financial statement is issued. Based upon this review, other than as described above and below, the Company did not identify any subsequent events that would have required adjustment or disclosure in the financial statement.

On February 19, 2026, the underwriters elected to forfeit their over-allotment option to purchase up to an additional 1,500,000 Units, resulting in the subsequent forfeiture of the 500,000 Founder Shares.
