WARBURG PINCUS CAPITAL CORPORATION I-A
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2022, the FASB issued ASU
2022-03,
ASC Subtopic 820 “Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale
Restrictions.” The ASU amends ASC 820 to clarify that a contractual sales restriction is not considered in measuring an equity security at fair value and to introduce new disclosure requirements for equity securities subject to contractual sale restrictions that are measured at fair value. The ASU applies to both holders and issuers of equity and equity-linked securities measured at fair value. The amendments in this ASU are effective for the Company in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted for both interim and annual financial statements that have not yet been issued or made available for issuance. The Company is still evaluating the impact of this pronouncement on the condensed financial statements.
The Company’s management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards updates, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s unaudited condensed financial statements.

3-Initial
Public Offering
On March 9, 2021, the Company consummated its Initial Public Offering of 25,000,000 Units, at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of approximately $250.0 million, and incurring offering costs of approximately $14.3 million, of which approximately $8.8 million was for deferred underwriting commissions. On April 16, 2021, the underwriters partially exercised the over-allotment option, and the closing of the issuance and sale of the Over-Allotment Units occurred on April 20, 2021. The issuance by the Company of the Over-Allotment Units, at a price of $10.00 per such units, resulted in total gross proceeds of approximately $33.4 million, and the incurrence of approximately $1.8 million in offering costs, of which approximately $1.2 million was for deferred underwriting commissions.
Each Unit consists of one Class A ordinary share and
one-fifth
of one redeemable Public Warrant. Each whole Public Warrant will entitle the holder thereof to purchase one Class A ordinary share at an exercise price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment (see Note 7).

Party Transactions
On December 9, 2020, the Sponsor paid an aggregate of $25,000 to cover for certain expenses on behalf of the Company in exchange for issuance of 7,187,500 ordinary shares (the “Founder Shares”). In February 2021, the Sponsor transferred 35,000 Founder Shares to an independent director. The Sponsor agreed to forfeit up to an aggregate of 937,500 Founder Shares, on a pro rata basis, to the extent that the option to purchase additional Units was not exercised in full by the underwriters, so that the Founder Shares would represent 20% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares after the Initial Public Offering. On April 16, 2021, the underwriters partially exercised the over-allotment option to purchase the Over-Allotment Units and on April 18, 2021, the over-allotment option on the remaining Units expired unexercised by the underwriters; thus, 101,956 Class B ordinary shares were forfeited by the Sponsor.
On July 1, 2021, the Company appointed a new independent director. On the same date, the Sponsor transferred 35,000 Founder Shares to such director. On February 14, 2022, the Company appointed a new independent director. On February 15, 2022, the Sponsor transferred 35,000 Founder Shares to such director.
The Initial Shareholders agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of their Founder Shares until the earlier to occur of (1) one year after the completion of the initial Business Combination; and (2) subsequent to the initial Business Combination (x) if the last reported sale price of Class A ordinary shares equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for share
sub-divisions,
share dividends, rights issuances, consolidations, reorganizations, recapitalizations and other similar transactions) for any 20 trading days within any
30-trading
day period commencing at least 150 days after the initial Business Combination or (y) the date on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, share exchange, reorganization or other similar transaction that results in all of the Public Shareholders having the right to exchange their ordinary shares for cash, securities or other property.
Private Placement Warrants
Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the Private Placement of 5,333,333 Private Placement Warrants, at a price of $1.50 per Private Placement Warrant with the Sponsor, generating gross proceeds of $8.0 million. On April 20, 2021, simultaneously with the issuance and sale of the Over-Allotment Units, the Company consummated the sale of an additional 445,624 Private Placement Warrants, pursuant to the Over-Allotment Private Placement, generating gross proceeds of approximately $668,000.
