Except with respect to interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account that may be released to us to pay our tax obligations (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), the proceeds deposited in the Trust Account will not be released from the Trust Account until the earliest of (a) the completion of our initial business combination, (b) the redemption of any public shares properly submitted in connection with a stockholder vote to amend our amended and restated certificate of incorporation (i) to modify the substance or timing of our obligation to provide our public stockholders the right to have their public shares redeemed in connection with our initial business combination or to redeem 100% of our public shares if we do not complete our initial business combination by June 14, 2023 or during any extended time we have to consummate our initial business combination beyond June 14, 2023 as a result of a stockholder vote to amend our amended and restated certificate of incorporation (an “Extension Period”) or (ii) with respect to any other provision relating to stockholders’ rights or pre-initial business combination activity, and (c) the redemption of all of our public shares if we are unable to complete our initial business combination by June 14, 2023 or during any Extension Period, subject to applicable law.

As of June 30, 2022, we had not yet commenced any operations. All activity for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and for the period April 13, 2021 (inception) through December 31, 2021 relates to our formation, our IPO and our pursuit of a target company with which to effect our initial business combination. The Company has selected December 31 as its fiscal year end.
Results of Operations and Known Trends or Future Events
Our entire activity from inception through June 30, 2022 relates solely to our formation, our IPO and, since the closing of our IPO, a search for a business combination candidate. We have not generated any operating revenues to date, and we will not generate any operating revenues until after completion of our initial business combination. We will generate non-operating income in the form of interest income on cash and cash equivalents. There has been no significant change in our financial or trading position and no material adverse change has occurred since the date of our audited financial statements. We have incurred and expect to continue to incur increased 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 June 30, 2022, we had net income of $3,371,189, which consisted of a $3,427,000 gain on the change in fair value of warrant liabilities and a $310,960 unrealized gain on marketable securities held in the Trust Account, offset by $83,098 in legal and accounting expenses, $49,863 of franchise tax expense, $129,063 of insurance expense, $90,124 of listing fees, and $14,623 of administrative expenses and bank fees expenses.
For the six months ended June 30, 2022, we had net income of $13,741,030, which consisted of a $14,279,000 gain on the change in fair value of warrant liabilities and a $333,264 unrealized gain on marketable securities held in the Trust Account, offset by $347,128 in legal and accounting expenses, $99,178 of franchise tax expense, $258,125 of insurance expense, $90,124 of listing fees, and $76,679 of administrative expenses and bank fees expenses.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we had cash of $472,622 and $1,950,543, respectively, and working capital of $139,063 and $1,010,298, respectively.
We expect to use our working capital primarily for legal and accounting fees related to our regulatory reporting requirements, fees for office space, utilities, and secretarial and administrative services, continued listing fees on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”), and for expenses in connection with identifying and evaluating target businesses, performing business due diligence on prospective target businesses, travelling to and from the offices or similar locations of prospective target businesses or their representatives or owners, reviewing corporate documents and material agreements of prospective target businesses and structuring, negotiating and completing a business combination.
