NOTE 9 — FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

 

The following tables present information about the Company’s assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis at December 31, 2025 and indicate the fair value hierarchy of the valuation inputs the Company utilized to determine such fair value. The fair values of held-to-maturity securities at December 31, 2025 are as follows:

 

               
    Description   Level     Fair Value  
December 31, 2025   Money market fund   1     $ 285,607,085  

 

The Company’s public warrants were valued using a Monte Carlo Simulation model and were classified within shareholders’ deficit and will not require remeasurement after issuance. The fair value of the Public Warrants was estimated to be $3,808,800 at issuance. The following table presents the quantitative information regarding market assumptions used in the valuation of the public warrants. These assumptions also include unobservable inputs (Level 3 inputs).

     
   Public Warrants 
Calculated price per warrant  $0.28 
Probability of Initial Business Combination   17.9%
Implied Class A ordinary share price  $9.86 
Weighted term (years)   2.89 
Exercise price  $11.50 
Volatility   6.40%
Risk-free rate   3.85%

 

Public Warrants are not remeasured subsequent to the date of the IPO. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024 there were 13,800,000 and nil warrants outstanding.

 

About Fair Value Disclosures

Fair value disclosures classify all assets and liabilities measured at fair value into a three-level hierarchy: Level 1 (quoted market prices), Level 2 (observable inputs like yield curves), and Level 3 (unobservable inputs requiring management estimates). The proportion of Level 3 assets directly reflects how much of the balance sheet depends on internal models rather than market evidence.

Key signals: a growing Level 3 balance relative to total fair-value assets increases valuation uncertainty and earnings volatility risk. Watch for transfers between levels — assets moving from Level 2 to Level 3 often signal deteriorating market liquidity. Unrealized gains and losses on Level 3 positions flow through earnings or other comprehensive income, so large swings deserve scrutiny. For financial institutions, examine the sensitivity disclosures that show how Level 3 valuations change under alternative assumptions. Compare the fair value of debt against its carrying amount to gauge hidden leverage.
