Overview

We are a blank check company incorporated in the British Virgin Islands on April 20, 2021 formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar Business Combination with one or more businesses. We intend to effectuate our Business Combination using cash derived from the proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and the sale of the Private Placement Units, our shares, debt or a combination of cash, shares and debt.

We expect to continue to incur significant costs in the pursuit of our acquisition plans. We cannot assure you that our plans to complete a Business Combination will be successful.

Recent Developments

On January 23, 2024, the Company consummated its Initial Public Offering and sold 5,750,000 Units, including 750,000 Units sold pursuant to the full exercise of the underwriters’ option to purchase additional units to cover the over-allotment, hence the 187,500 shares of Class B ordinary shares were subsequently forfeited. Each Unit consists of one Class A ordinary share and one Right to receive one-fourth of one Class A ordinary share upon the consummation of an initial Business Combination. The Units were sold at a price of $10.00 per unit, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $57,500,000.

Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering and the sale of the Units, the Company consummated the Private Placement of an aggregate 240,000 Private Placement Units, which included the additional 7,500 Private Placement Units sold pursuant to the full exercise of the underwriters’ option to cover the over-allotment.

Upon closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Private Placement, and the sale of the Over-Allotment Units, a total of $57,500,000 was placed in the Trust Account.

On April 8, 2024, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (as may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Merger Agreement”) with (i) Hotel101 Global Pte. Ltd., a private company limited by shares incorporated under the laws of Singapore (“Hotel101 Global”), (ii) Hotel of Asia, Inc., a company with limited liability incorporated under the laws of the Philippines (“Hotel of Asia” and together with Hotel101 Global, the “Company Parties”), (iii) DoubleDragon Corporation, a company incorporated under the laws of the Philippines and listed on the Philippine Stock Exchange, Inc. (“DoubleDragon”); (iv) DDPC Worldwide Pte. Ltd., a private company limited by shares incorporated under the laws of Singapore and a wholly-owned subsidiary of DoubleDragon (“DDPC”), (v) Hotel101 Worldwide Private Limited, a private company limited by shares incorporated under the laws of Singapore (“Hotel101 Worldwide”, and together with DDPC, and DoubleDragon, the “Principal Shareholders”), (vi) Hotel101 Global Holdings Corp., an exempted company with limited liability incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands and a wholly-owned subsidiary of DoubleDragon (“PubCo”), (vii) HGHC 4 Pte. Ltd., a private company limited by shares incorporated under the laws of Singapore and a wholly-owned subsidiary of PubCo (“Merger Sub 1”), and (viii) HGHC 3 Corp., a British Virgin Islands business company and a wholly-owned subsidiary of PubCo (“Merger Sub 2”). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, (i) prior to the Company Amalgamation and SPAC Merger (each as defined below), DoubleDragon will transfer 40% of the total issued share capital of Hotel of Asia to PubCo (the “Share Transfer”) in exchange for 30,935,563 PubCo Class A ordinary shares (the “Transfer Payment Shares”) pursuant to a Share Purchase Agreement, (ii) prior to the Company Amalgamation and SPAC Merger (each as defined below), DDPC will transfer to Hotel101 Global certain real estate-related properties free and clear of any encumbrances in exchange for the issuance of ordinary shares in the capital of Hotel101 Global to DDPC (the “Property Transfer”), (iii) Hotel101 Global and Merger Sub 1 will amalgamate, with Hotel101 Global being the surviving entity and becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of PubCo (“Company Amalgamation”) and (iv) the Company will merge with and into Merger Sub 2, with the Company being the surviving entity and becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of PubCo (the “SPAC Merger”). Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, the aggregate consideration to be paid to DDPC, Hotel 101 Worldwide and certain key executives of the Company Parties is an aggregate of $2,300,000,000 which will be paid entirely in stock, comprised of newly issued ordinary shares of PubCo at a price of $10.00 per share (the “Closing Payment Shares”).

The Merger Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants of the parties thereto. The consummation of the proposed Merger is subject to certain conditions as further described in the Merger Agreement.

See the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Company with the SEC on April 8, 2024 for additional information.

Results of Operations

We have neither engaged in any operations nor generated any revenues to date. Our only activities from April 20, 2021 (inception) through March 31, 2024 were organizational activities, those necessary to prepare for the Initial Public Offering, described below, and identifying a target company for a Business Combination. We do not expect to generate any operating revenues until after the completion of our Business Combination. We generate non-operating income in the form of interest income on marketable securities held in the Trust Account. We incur expenses as a result of being a public company (for legal, financial reporting, accounting and auditing compliance), as well as for due diligence expenses.

For the three months ended March 31, 2024, we had a net income of $330,961, which consists of interest income from trust of $559,296 and interest income from bank of $4,945 offset by formation and operational cost of $233,280.

For the three months ended March 31, 2023, we had net loss $663, which consisted of formation and operating costs.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our liquidity needs have been satisfied prior to completion of the IPO through receipt of $25,000 from the sale of the founder shares to our sponsor and up to $350,000 in loans from our sponsor under an unsecured promissory note. As of March 31, 2024, $286,385 remain outstanding under the promissory note with our Sponsor.

On January 23, 2024, the Company consummated its IPO of 5,750,000 Units, which includes the full exercise of the underwriter’s over-allotment option. Each Unit consists of one Class A ordinary share, no par value per share, and one right to receive one-fourth of one Class A ordinary share upon the completion of the initial Business Combination. The Units were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per Unit, generating total gross proceeds of $57,500,000. Simultaneously with the consummation of the IPO and the sale of the Units, we consummated the Private Placement of 240,000 Private Placement Units to the Sponsor, at a price of approximately $10.00 per Private Placement Unit, generating total proceeds of $2,400,000. The Private Placement Units are identical to the public Units sold in the IPO. Additionally, such initial purchasers agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of the Private Placement Units or underlying securities (except in limited circumstances, as described in the Unit Subscription Agreement) until after the completion of the Company’s initial business combination. Such initial purchasers were granted certain registration rights which is governed by a registration rights agreement in connection with the purchase of the Private Placement Units. The Private Placement Units were issued pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, as the transactions did not involve a public offering.

Following the closing of the IPO on January 23, 2024, an amount of $57,500,000 ($10.00 per Unit) from the net proceeds of the sale of the Units in the IPO and the sale of the Private Placement Units was placed in a Trust Account.

For the three months ended March 31, 2024, cash used in operating activities was $490,107. Net income of $330,961 was affected by interest earned on investment held in the Trust Account of $559,296. Changes in operating assets and liabilities used $261,772 of cash for operating activities.  

For the three months ended March 31, 2023, cash used in operating activities was $nil.

As of March 31, 2024, we had marketable securities held in the Trust Account of $58,059,296 (including approximately $559,296 of interest income) consisting of U.S. Treasury Bills with a maturity of 185 days or less. We may withdraw interest from the Trust Account to pay taxes, if any. We intend to use substantially all of the funds held in the Trust Account, including any amounts representing interest earned on the Trust Account (less income taxes payable), to complete our Business Combination. To the extent that our share capital or debt is used, in whole or in part, as consideration to complete our Business Combination, the remaining proceeds held in the Trust Account will be used as working capital to finance the operations of the target business or businesses, make other acquisitions and pursue our growth strategies.

As of March 31, 2024, we had cash of $1,047,202. We intend to use the funds held outside the Trust Account primarily to identify and evaluate target businesses, perform business due diligence on prospective target businesses, travel to and from the offices, plants or similar locations of prospective target businesses or their representatives or owners, review corporate documents and material agreements of prospective target businesses, structure, negotiate and complete a Business Combination.

In order to fund working capital deficiencies or finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor, or certain of our officers and directors or their affiliates may, but are not obligated to, loan us funds as may be required. If we complete a Business Combination, we would repay such loaned amounts. In the event that a Business Combination does not close, we may use a portion of the working capital held outside the Trust Account to repay such loaned amounts but no proceeds from our Trust Account would be used for such repayment. Up to $1,150,000 of such Working Capital Loans may be convertible into units at a price of $10.00 per unit at the option of the lender. Such units would be identical to the Private Placement Units issued to our sponsor.

We do not believe we will need to raise additional funds in order to meet the expenditures required for operating our business. However, if our 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, we may have insufficient funds available to operate our business prior to our initial Business Combination. Moreover, we may need to obtain additional financing either to complete our Business Combination or because we become obligated to redeem a significant number of our public shares upon completion of our Business Combination, in which case we may issue additional securities or incur debt in connection with such Business Combination.

The Company has incurred and expects to continue to incur significant costs to remain as a publicly traded company and to incur significant transaction costs in pursuit of the consummation of a Business Combination. In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with Financial Accounting Standard Board’s Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-15, “Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern,” management has determined that these conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The management’s plan in addressing this uncertainty is through the Working Capital Loans, as defined below (see Note 5). In addition, if the Company is unable to complete a business combination 12 months from the closing of the IPO (or up to 18 months from the closing of the IPO if we extend the period of time to consummate a business combination by the full amount of time), the Company’s board of directors would proceed to commence a voluntary liquidation and thereby a formal dissolution of the Company. There is no assurance that the Company’s plans to consummate a Business Combination will be successful. As a result, management has determined that such additional condition also raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statement does not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no obligations, assets or liabilities, which would be considered off-balance sheet arrangements as of March 31, 2024. We do not participate in transactions that create relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, often referred to as variable interest entities, which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements. We have not entered into any off-balance sheet financing arrangements, established any special purpose entities, guaranteed any debt or commitments of other entities, or purchased any non-financial assets.

Contractual obligations

We do not have any long-term debt, capital lease obligations, operating lease obligations or long-term liabilities, other than described below.

Registration Rights

The holders of the Founder Shares, Private Placement Units, shares being issued to the underwriters of the IPO, and units that may be issued on conversion of Working Capital Loans (and in each case holders of their component securities, as applicable) will be entitled to registration rights pursuant to a registration rights agreement signed on the effective date of the IPO. The holders of these securities are entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short form demands, that the Company registers such securities. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to the consummation of a Business Combination and rights to require the Company to register for resale such securities pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the underwriter may not exercise its demand and “piggyback” registration rights after five (5) and seven (7) years, respectively, after the effective date of the IPO and may not exercise its demand rights on more than one occasion. However, the registration rights agreement provides that the Company will not permit any registration statement filed under the Securities Act to become effective until termination of the applicable Lock-up period. Notwithstanding the above, the shares to be issued to the underwriters in the IPO will be further subject to the limitations on registration requirements imposed by FINRA Rule 5110(g)(8). The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.

Underwriting Agreement

Pursuant to the underwriting agreement entered into on January 18, 2024, we have agreed and have issued to Maxim Partners LLC and/or its designees (“Maxim”), 258,750 ordinary shares (inclusive of the exercise of the underwriter’s over-allotment option in full) (the “Representative Shares”) at the closing of the IPO. Maxim has agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any such Representative Shares until the completion of the initial Business Combination. In addition, the underwriter has agreed (and its permitted transferees will agree) (i) to waive its redemption rights with respect to such Representative Shares in connection with the completion of the Company’s initial Business Combination and (ii) to waive its rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to such Representative Shares if the Company fails to complete its initial Business Combination within the Combination Period.

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 date of the commencement of sales in the IPO pursuant to FINRA Rule 5110(e)(1). Pursuant to FINRA Rule 5110(e)(1), these securities will not be 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 immediately following the effective date of the IPO, nor may they be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated for a period of 180 days immediately following the effective date of the IPO except to any underwriter and selected dealer participating in the IPO and their officers, partners, registered persons or affiliates.

The underwriter was paid $575,000 for the underwriter’s discount, upon the closing of the IPO. Additionally, the underwriter was entitled 258,750 Representative Shares that were registered in the IPO, for no consideration, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement. The underwriter has agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any such shares until the completion of the initial Business Combination.

Critical Accounting Estimates

The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with GAAP requires Management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and income and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. As of the end of the reporting period, we have not identified any critical accounting estimates except as described below:

Ordinary Shares Subject to Possible Redemption

The Company accounts for Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in ASC 480. Class A ordinary shares subject to mandatory redemption (if any) is classified as a liability instrument and is measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable ordinary shares (including ordinary shares that features redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the Company’s control) is classified as temporary equity. At all other times, ordinary shares is classified as stockholders’ equity. The Class A ordinary shares features certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to the occurrence of uncertain future events. In accordance with the SEC and its guidance on redeemable equity instruments, which has been codified in ASC 480-10-S99, redemption provisions not solely within the control of a company require ordinary shares subject to redemption to be classified outside of permanent equity. Given that the 5,750,000 Class A ordinary shares sold as part of the Company’s IPO were issued with other freestanding instruments (i.e., Public Units), the initial carrying value of Class A ordinary shares classified as temporary equity has been allocated to the proceeds determined in accordance with ASC 470-20. The Company’s Class A ordinary shares is subject to ASC 480-10-S99. If it is probable that the equity instrument will become redeemable, the Company has the option to either (i) 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 (ii) 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 in redemption value in additional paid-in capital (or accumulated deficit in the absence of additional paid-in capital) over an expected 12-month period, which is the initial period that the Company has to complete a Business Combination

Accordingly, at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, Class A Ordinary Shares subject to possible redemption are presented at redemption value as temporary equity, outside of permanent shareholders’ equity (deficit) in the Company’s balance sheets.

Recent Accounting Standards

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (ASU 2023-09), which requires disclosure of incremental income tax information within the rate reconciliation and expanded disclosures of income taxes paid, among other disclosure requirements. ASU 2023-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. Our management does not believe the adoption of ASU 2023-09 will have a material impact on our financial statements and disclosures.

Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on our condensed financial statements.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Not required for smaller reporting companies.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Disclosure controls and procedures are designed with the objective of ensuring that information required to be disclosed by us in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls are also designed with the objective that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Our management evaluated, with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial and accounting officer, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2024, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial and accounting officer have concluded that during the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at a reasonable assurance level.

We do not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all errors and all instances of fraud. Disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met. Further, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all disclosure controls and procedures, no evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures can provide absolute assurance that we have detected all our control deficiencies and instances of fraud, if any. The design of disclosure controls and procedures also is based partly on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Other than as described herein, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

We may be subject to legal proceedings, investigations and claims incidental to the conduct of our business from time to time. We are not currently a party to any material litigation or other legal proceedings brought against us. We are also not aware of any legal proceeding, investigation or claim, or other legal exposure that has a more than remote possibility of having a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations. 

Item 1A. Risk Factors

As smaller reporting company we are not required to make disclosures under this Item.

Our independent registered public accounting firm’s report contains an explanatory paragraph that expresses substantial doubt about our ability continue as a “going concern.”

As of March 31, 2024, the Company had cash of $1,047,202 and a working capital of $954,927. Further, we have incurred and expect to continue to incur significant costs as a public company (for legal, financial reporting, accounting and auditing compliance), as well as expenses in connection with our initial business combination activities. Management’s plans to address any need for additional capital are discussed in “Part I, Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.” We cannot assure you that any efforts to raise capital (if required) or to consummate an initial business combination will be successful. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statement contained elsewhere in this Form 10-Q do not include any adjustments that might result from our inability to continue as a going concern.

If we were considered to be a “foreign person,” we might not be able to complete an initial business combination with a U.S. target company if such initial business combination is subject to U.S. foreign investment regulations or review by a U.S. government entity, such as the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (“CFIUS”).

Our sponsor is controlled by or has substantial ties with non-U.S. persons domiciled outside the U.S. Acquisitions and investments by non-U.S. persons in certain U.S. businesses may be subject to rules or regulations that limit foreign ownership. CFIUS is an interagency committee authorized to review certain transactions involving investments by foreign persons in U.S. businesses that have a nexus to critical technologies, critical infrastructure and/or sensitive personal data in order to determine the effect of such transactions on the national security of the U.S. Were we considered to be a “foreign person” under such rules and regulations, any proposed business combination between us and a U.S. business engaged in a regulated industry or which may affect national security could be subject to such foreign ownership restrictions, CFIUS review and/or mandatory filings.

If our potential initial business combination with a U.S. business falls within the scope of foreign ownership restrictions, we may not be able to consummate an initial business combination with such business. In addition, if our potential business combination falls within CFIUS’s jurisdiction, we may be required to make a mandatory filing or determine to submit a voluntary notice to CFIUS, or to proceed with the initial business combination without notifying CFIUS and risk CFIUS intervention, before or after closing the initial business combination. CFIUS may decide to block or delay our initial business combination, impose conditions to mitigate national security concerns with respect to such initial business combination or order us to divest all or a portion of a U.S. business of the combined company if we had proceeded without first obtaining CFIUS clearance. The potential limitations and risks may limit the attractiveness of a transaction with us or prevent us from pursuing certain initial business combination opportunities that we believe would otherwise be beneficial to us and our shareholders. As a result, the pool of potential targets with which we could complete an initial business combination may be limited and we may be adversely affected in terms of competing with other special purpose acquisition companies which do not have similar foreign ownership issues.

Moreover, the process of government review, whether by CFIUS or otherwise, could be lengthy. Because we have only a limited time to complete our initial business combination, our failure to obtain any required approvals within the requisite time-period may require us to liquidate. If we liquidate, our public shareholders may only receive their pro rata share of amounts held in the Trust Account, and our units and Founder Shares will expire worthless. This will also cause you to lose any potential investment opportunity in a target company and the chance of realizing future gains on your investment through any price appreciation in the combined company.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.

On January 23, 2024, we consummated its IPO of 5,750,000 Units, which includes the full exercise of the underwriter’s over-allotment option. Each Unit consists of one Class A ordinary share, no par value per share, and one right to receive of one-fourth of one Class A ordinary share upon the completion of the initial Business Combination. The Units were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per Unit, generating total gross proceeds of $57,500,000. Maxim Group LLC. acted as sole book-running manager of the Initial Public Offering. The securities in the offering were registered under the Securities Act on registration statement on Form S-1 (No. 333-275176). The Securities and Exchange Commission declared the registration statements effective on January 18, 2024.

Simultaneously with the consummation of the IPO and the sale of the Units, the Company consummated the Private Placement of 240,000 Private Placement Units to Winky Investments Limited, the Sponsor, at a price of approximately $10.00 per Private Placement Unit, generating total proceeds of $2,400,000. The Private Placement Units are identical to the units sold in the IPO except as described below. There will be no redemption rights or liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to the Founder Shares, private placement shares or private placement rights. The rights will expire worthless if the Company does not consummate a Business Combination within the allotted 12-month period (or up to 18 months from the completion of the IPO if the Company extends the period of time to consummate a Business Combination by the full amount of time).

The private placement units, private placement shares, private placement rights and the Class A ordinary shares underlying such rights will not be transferable, assignable or salable by the Sponsor until thirty (30) days after the completion of the Company’s initial Business Combination, except to permitted transferees. 

We paid a total of $1,751,700 consisting of $575,000 of underwriting commissions which was paid in cash at the closing date of the IPO, $632,284 of the Representative Shares (as defined in Note 6), and $544,416 of other offering costs.

For a description of the use of the proceeds generated in our Initial Public Offering, see Part I, Item 2 of this Form 10-Q.
