(“DMY”).

 

This prospectus also relates to the resale from time to time by certain selling securityholders named in this prospectus, or their permitted transferees (collectively, the “Selling Securityholders”), of (1) 2,884,660 Company Warrants that were issued to dMY Squared Sponsor LLC (the “Sponsor”) in exchange for warrants issued to the Sponsor in a private placement that closed concurrently with the initial public offering of DMY (the “Company Private Warrants”) and (2) 52,966,280 Company Class A Shares, including

 

i.19,957,530 Company Class A Shares held by certain Selling Securityholders;

 

ii.1,163,484 issued and outstanding Company Class A Shares held by the Sponsor (the “Sponsor Shares”);

 

iii.9,196,021 Company Class A Shares issued to certain Selling Securityholders pursuant to various subscription agreements entered into on December 4, 2025, and March 6, 2026;

vi.20,000 Class A Shares held by Revere Securities LLC (“Revere”).

 

See “Selling Securityholders” for additional information regarding the Selling Securityholders.

 

The securities registered herein are identified in this prospectus as the “Registered Securities.” We are registering the offer and sale of the Registered Securities to satisfy certain registration rights we have granted. The Selling Securityholders may offer all or part of the Registered Securities for resale from time to time through public or private transactions, at either prevailing market prices or at privately negotiated prices. The Registered Securities are being registered to permit the Selling Securityholders to sell securities from time to time, in amounts, at prices and on terms determined at the time of offering. The Selling Securityholders may sell the Registered Securities through ordinary brokerage transactions, in underwritten offerings, directly to market makers of our securities or through any other means described in the section entitled “Plan of Distribution” herein. In connection with any sales of the Registered Securities offered hereunder, the Selling Securityholders, any underwriters, agents, brokers or dealers participating in such sales may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

 

Our Company Class A Shares and Company Public Warrants, are listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”), under the trading symbols “HQ” and “HQWWW,” respectively. On April 20, 2026, the closing price for our Company Class A Shares on Nasdaq was US$13.05 and the closing price for our Company Public Warrants on Nasdaq was US$3.70.

 

 

 

 

Subject to the lock-up restrictions described in this prospectus under the section titled “Plan of Distribution,” the Selling Securityholders can sell, under this prospectus, up to 52,966,280 Company Class A Shares constituting (on a post-exercise basis) approximately 91.92% of our issued and outstanding Company Shares as of April 21, 2026 (assuming the exercise of all of our outstanding Company Warrants). Despite a potential decline in the public trading price of our Company Class A Shares, certain Selling Securityholders may still experience a positive rate of return on the securities that they sell pursuant to this prospectus as they have acquired the securities registered hereunder at prices substantially below current market prices, and may therefore have an incentive to sell their securities. The holders of Company Warrants may experience a potential profit on their Company Warrants if the price of our Company Class A Shares exceeds US$11.50 per share. However, the public holders of our securities may not experience a similar rate of return on the securities they purchase due to differences in the applicable purchase price and trading price.

  

Given the substantial number of securities being registered for potential resale by the Selling Securityholders pursuant to this prospectus, the sale of such securities by the Selling Securityholders, or the perception in the market that the Selling Securityholders may or intend to sell all or a significant portion of such securities, could increase the volatility of the market price of our Company Class A Shares or result in a significant decline in the public trading price of our Company Class A Shares.

 

We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the securities by the Selling Securityholders. We will receive proceeds from the exercise of Company Warrants if the Company Warrants are exercised for cash. The likelihood that warrant holders will exercise the Company Warrants and any cash proceeds that we would receive is dependent upon the market price of our Company Class A Shares. Based on the closing price of our Company Class A Shares at US$13.05 on April 20, 2026, which is more than the exercise price of US$11.50 per share pursuant to the terms of the Company Warrants, we believe the warrant holders may exercise their Company Warrants, and, if any Company Warrants are exercised on a cash basis, we will receive proceeds from such exercise of Company Warrants. We will pay the expenses associated with registering the sales by the Selling Securityholders, as described in more details in the section titled “Use of Proceeds” appearing elsewhere in this prospectus.

 

We may amend or supplement this prospectus from time to time by filing amendments or supplements as required. You should read this entire prospectus and any amendments or supplements carefully before you make your investment decision. 

 

We are an “emerging growth company” as that term is used in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, as amended, and, as such, may elect to comply with certain reduced public company reporting requirements in future reports.

 

We are a foreign private issuer within the meaning of the rules under the Exchange Act, and as such we are exempt from certain provisions of the securities rules and regulations in the United States that are applicable to U.S. domestic issuers, such as the rules regulating solicitation of proxies and certain insider reporting and short-swing profit rules. Moreover, the information we are required to file with or furnish to the SEC will be less extensive and less timely compared to that required to be filed with the SEC by U.S. domestic issuers. In addition, as a company incorporated in Singapore, we are permitted to adopt certain home country practices in relation to corporate governance matters that differ significantly from the corporate governance standards of the Nasdaq Stock Market.

 

Investing in our securities involves a high degree of risk. See “Risk Factors” beginning on page 12 of this prospectus and other risk factors contained in the documents incorporated by reference herein for a discussion of information that should be considered in connection with an investment in our securities.

 

Neither the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission nor any other regulatory body has approved or disapproved of these securities or determined if this prospectus is truthful or complete. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

INDUSTRY AND MARKET DATA

 

This prospectus contains estimates, projections and other information concerning our industry, including market size and growth of the markets in which we participate, that are based on industry publications, reports and forecasts prepared by our management. In some cases, we do not expressly refer to the sources from which these estimates and information are derived. This information involves a number of assumptions and limitations, and you are cautioned not to give undue weight to these estimates. The industry in which we operate is subject to a high degree of uncertainty and risk due to a variety of factors, including those described in the section titled “Risk Factors.” These and other factors could cause results to differ materially from those expressed in these publications and reports.

 

Certain estimates of market opportunity, including internal estimates of our addressable market and forecasts of market growth, included in this prospectus may prove inaccurate.

The addressable market we estimate may not materialize for many years, if ever, and even if the markets in which we compete meet the size estimates in this prospectus, our business could fail to successfully address or compete in such markets, if at all.

EXPLANATORY NOTE

 

On March 19, 2026, Horizon Quantum Holdings Ltd. (formerly known as Horizon Quantum Holdings Pte. Ltd. and Rose Holdco Pte. Ltd.) (Company Registration No.: 202537774K), a Singapore public company limited by shares (“we,” “us,” “our,” or the “Company”) consummated the previously announced business combination with dMY Squared Technology Group, Inc. (“DMY”), pursuant to the business combination agreement, dated as of September 9, 2025 (as amended, supplemented and/or restated from time to time, the “Business Combination Agreement”) by and among DMY, the Company, Rose Acquisition Pte. Ltd. (Company Registration No.: 202537790M), a Singapore private company limited by shares and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub 1”), Horizon Merger Sub 2, Inc., a Massachusetts corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub 2”), and Horizon Quantum Computing Pte. Ltd. (Company Registration No.: 201802755E), a Singapore private company limited by shares (“Horizon”).

 

On March 19, 2026 (the “Amalgamation Effective Time”), Merger Sub 1 amalgamated with and into Horizon (the “Amalgamation”), with Horizon surviving the Amalgamation as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and the outstanding shares of Horizon being converted into the right to receive Company Class A Shares or the right to receive Company Class B Shares, as the case may be. Subsequent to the Amalgamation, Merger Sub 2 merged with and into DMY (the “Merger”), with DMY surviving the Merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and the outstanding securities of DMY being converted into the right to receive Company Class A Shares and/or Company Warrants (the Amalgamation and the Merger together with the other transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement and other ancillary documents, the “Business Combination”).

 

Under the Business Combination Agreement, the aggregate merger consideration amount paid to the shareholders of Horizon is $508,384,000 and was paid entirely in newly issued Company Class A Shares and Company Class B Shares (the “Merger Consideration”), at the consummation of the Business Combination, on March 19, 2026 (the “Closing”). 

 

As a result of the Business Combination, (a) each issued and outstanding ordinary share in the share capital of Horizon (the “Horizon Ordinary Shares”) was automatically converted into the right to receive a number of Company Shares equal to the Exchange Ratio (as defined below), on the terms and subject to the conditions of the Business Combination Agreement (b) the shares of Horizon that were held by Joseph Fitzsimons, the Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Horizon and the Company, that were issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Amalgamation Effective Time were cancelled and converted into the right to receive such number of Company Class B Shares equal to the Exchange Ratio and in accordance with the Business Combination Agreement, with each such Company Class B Share entitling each holder thereof to three (3) votes for each Company Class B Ordinary Share held (c) each simple agreement for future equity (“SAFE”) was canceled and automatically deemed to represent the right to receive a number of Company Class A Shares equal to the Exchange Ratio multiplied by the number of Horizon Ordinary shares (on an as-converted basis) subject to such SAFE, and (d) each outstanding and unexercised option to subscribe for Horizon Ordinary shares (each, a “Horizon Option”) became an option to subscribe for Company Class A Shares (each, a “Company Option”) containing the same terms, conditions, vesting and other provisions as are currently applicable to such Horizon Options, provided that each Company Option is exercisable for the number of Company Class A Shares equal to the Exchange Ratio multiplied by the number of Horizon Ordinary Shares subject to the Horizon Option as of immediately prior to the Amalgamation Effective Time, rounded down to the nearest whole share, at an exercise price equal to the per share exercise price of the Horizon Option divided by the Exchange Ratio, rounded up to the nearest whole cent. “Exchange Ratio” means (a) Aggregate Amalgamation Consideration divided by (b) the Fully-Diluted Company Capitalization, each as defined in the Business Combination Agreement, attached hereto as Exhibit 2.1.

After the completion of the Amalgamation and prior to the Merger, (1) DMY effected the redemption of the shares of Class A common stock of DMY, par value $0.0001 per share (the “DMY Class A Shares”), initially issued as part of the DMY Units (as defined below) sold in DMY’s initial public offering (the “Public Shares” and the holders of Public Shares, the “Public Shareholders”) that were submitted for redemption and not withdrawn, (2) each outstanding share of Class B common stock of DMY, par value $0.0001 per share (the “DMY Class B Shares”, and together with the DMY Class A Shares, the “DMY Common Stock”), were automatically converted into DMY Class A Shares on a one-for-one basis (the “Class B Share Conversion”), and (3) each unit sold in DMY’s initial public offering (the “DMY Units”) was automatically separated into its component parts (the “Unit Separation”) and the holder of each DMY Unit was deemed to hold one DMY Class A Share and one-half of one warrant to purchase DMY Class A Shares (“DMY Public Warrants”).

 

At the effective time of the Merger, (a) each outstanding DMY Class A Share (excluding any Public Shares which were redeemed) were automatically converted into the right to receive one Company Class A Share, (b) each outstanding whole DMY Public Warrant (including DMY Public Warrants issued upon the Unit Separation) were assumed by the Company and are exercisable for Company Class A Shares in lieu of DMY Class A Shares (the “Company Public Warrants”), and (c) each outstanding private placement warrant of DMY initially issued in a private placement simultaneous with DMY’s initial public offering (the “DMY Private Warrants”) was assumed by the Company and will be exercisable for Company Class A Shares in lieu of DMY Class A Shares (the “Company Private Warrants,” and together with the Company Public Warrants, the “Company Warrants”).

 

On December 4, 2025 and March 6, 2026, the Company entered into certain Subscription Agreements (the “PIPE Subscription Agreements”) with DMY, Horizon and certain investors (the “PIPE Investors”), pursuant to which, among other things, the PIPE Investors agreed to subscribe for and purchase, and the Company agreed to issue and sell to the PIPE Investors, an aggregate of 9,196,020 Company Class A Shares (the “PIPE Shares”), at a purchase price equal to $11.82 per share (the “PIPE Private Placement”) in connection with a financing effort related to the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement. The PIPE Private Placement was consummated simultaneously with the Closing. Further, on March 6, 2026, DMY, the Company and Horizon offered to each PIPE Investor the option to elect to satisfy their purchase obligation by purchasing Open-Market Purchase Shares (as defined below) no later than one (1) Business Day prior to the redemption deadline for the special meeting of DMY Shareholders held on March 17, 2026, called to approve the proposals set forth in the proxy statement pursuant to the Model Business Corporation Act, the DMY Articles, and the Business Combination Agreement (the “Special Meeting”), which purchases would result in a Reduction Right (as defined below). See “Corporate History and Structure – PIPE Subscription Agreements with PIPE Investors” for more information about the PIPE Private Placement.

 

As a result of the foregoing transactions, there were 51,578,134 Company Shares (consisting of 31,833,549 Company Class A Shares and 19,744,585 Company Class B Shares) and 6,044,160 Company Warrants (consisting of 3,159,500 Company Public Warrants and 2,884,660 Private Warrants) outstanding as of March 19, 2026.

 

On March 20, 2026, the Company Class A Shares and Company Public Warrants commenced trading on The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) under the symbols “HQ” and “HQWWW,” respectively.

 

Certain amounts that appear in this Registration Statement may not sum due to rounding.

These forward-looking statements include, among other things, the financial conditions, results of operations, earnings outlook and prospects of the Company for the period following the consummation of the Business Combination, statements regarding estimates and forecasts of performance and projections of market opportunity, expectations and timing related to the success, cost and timing of product development activities, financing and other business milestones. In addition, any statements that refer to projections, forecasts or other characterizations of future events or circumstances, including any underlying assumptions, are forward-looking statements.

SUMMARY OF THE PROSPECTUS

 

This summary highlights selected information that is presented in greater detail elsewhere in this prospectus. This summary does not contain all of the information you should consider before investing in our securities. You should read this entire prospectus carefully, including the sections titled “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and our consolidated financial statements and the related notes included elsewhere in this prospectus, before making an investment decision.

 

Business Overview

 

We are building software infrastructure to make quantum computers accessible to commercial enterprises and hardware providers. By bridging the gap between today’s hardware and tomorrow’s applications, we seek to equip developers, researchers, and enterprises with the quantum software infrastructure needed to solve real-world problems.

 

To do this, we are following an ambitious plan to create development tools that can automatically accelerate code written for conventional computers on quantum computers. With this differentiated approach, we are developing methods to generate quantum-accelerated solutions — exploiting quantum effects such as superposition and entanglement — from legacy code and conventional software.

 

Today, our Triple Alpha software is an integrated development environment that gives users access to our development, deployment, and execution infrastructure. It enables developers to create sophisticated, portable, hardware-agnostic quantum programs. Users can code at multiple abstraction levels, compile and optimize programs across many real quantum computers and simulators, and deploy applications as Application Programming Interfaces (“APIs”). We have key collaborative relationships with leading hardware providers including Alice & Bob, Oxford Quantum Circuits Ltd., QuEra Computing Inc., and Rigetti Computing, Inc. (“Rigetti”).

 

Triple Alpha is currently in early access with select vendors. We have received inbound interest in early access requests from more than 40 major corporations, 90 universities, 13 quantum software companies, and 18 national labs, government agencies and research organizations.

 

We are still in the early stages of scaling its business. Since its inception, we have incurred operating losses. Its ability to generate revenue sufficient to achieve profitability will depend heavily on the further development and commercialization of quantum computers and their software infrastructure.

The Quantum Software Opportunity

 

Since its emergence in the 1950s, conventional computing has dramatically altered the way humans live, work, and do business. As powerful as conventional computers have become, there are still many calculations they can’t perform.

 

Unlike conventional computers, which process information as 0s or 1s, quantum computers store and process information as quantum states. Quantum computers use qubits — which can exist simultaneously in a superposition of both 0 and 1. Qubits in superposition can explore different branches of a computation, and quantum computers can use quantum interference to extract information from that superposition to accelerate certain calculations.

 

Because of these capabilities, quantum computers have the potential to tackle problems that have long been intractable for conventional computers, such as simulating complex physical systems (from molecular dynamics to fluid flow), accelerating training and inference in machine learning, and solving hard optimization problems across many industries.

 

Triple Alpha, Horizon’s integrated development environment, aims to set the gold standard for developing and deploying applications on quantum computers. Triple Alpha contains proprietary languages and a compiler, which allow developers to create sophisticated applications that make use of advanced features such as full control flow and dynamic memory allocation in quantum programs, while leveraging Horizon’s deployment and execution infrastructure to run these programs on today’s quantum computers.

 

Horizon believes that the recent pace of hardware advancement suggests that software development will become the limiting factor for real-world applications of quantum advantage. As quantum computing reaches an inflection point, Horizon believes its product development and go-to-market roadmap can deliver the software infrastructure needed to realize practical quantum advantage. While many current quantum software development tools are locked to specific hardware or limited to expressing only static circuits, Horizon expects that its hardware-agnostic approach will allow users to transfer skills and applications across machines, regardless of the vendor or underlying modality, while still taking advantage of advanced capabilities such as dynamic circuits and pulse-level control.

 

Technology Approach

 

Horizon takes a different approach to constructing quantum algorithms. The company views algorithm construction as a compilation problem, so rather than attempting to construct algorithms manually for specific problems, it has developed techniques to enable the automatic construction of quantum algorithms from code written for conventional computers. These techniques include decomposing loops and control-flow into simple primitives that can be recognized and replaced with more efficient quantum subroutines and replacing basic algorithms and data structures with more efficient quantum implementations.

 

With this approach, Horizon aims to make quantum acceleration broadly applicable wherever a classical program exists or can be written, eliminating the need for a hand-crafted quantum algorithm for each new problem. Because some classical programs simply cannot be improved using quantum techniques, this approach is not guaranteed to speed up every program. However, the same is true for quantum algorithm design in general.

 

The current state of quantum programming is similar to the early days of classical computing. Most tools still require developers to build quantum circuits gate by gate, sometimes making use of libraries or Python generators. Complete, end-to-end workflows — from describing a problem at a high level to running it on hardware — mostly exist only within specific vendor ecosystems and are often not portable. As a result, developers spend much of their time dealing with the mechanics of circuit construction instead of focusing on the intent of the program.

This situation is compounded by inconsistent support for capabilities expected in future systems, such as general control flow, evaluation of classical functions over measurement results, and dynamic memory management. Some platforms already offer a subset of these features, like dynamic circuits/conditionals or selective pulse/timing access, but the level of support varies between providers.

 

By adding in abstraction layer by layer, Horizon’s software infrastructure is designed to make quantum programming more accessible. At its base is Hydrogen, a portable, assembly-like language that supports general control flow and concurrent classical computation. It captures core operations expected of an idealized, future quantum computer. Above Hydrogen sits Helium, a BASIC-like language that retains these capabilities while adding higher-level features, including dynamic memory allocation and automatic generation of quantum circuits from C/C++.

 

Beryllium, Horizon’s object-oriented programming language, sits above Helium. Horizon previewed Beryllium in December 2025 and anticipates making the language available to Triple Alpha’s early access users in the first half of 2026.

 

With the introduction of object-oriented quantum programming — native quantum classes, functions, and libraries — Beryllium is expected to allow developers to define reusable quantum data types analogous to those in modern classical languages by letting programmers define what quantum algorithms should do without requiring that they worry about repeated low-level details, thereby empowering them to focus on high-level operations. With Beryllium, Horizon expects that Triple Alpha users will be able to develop and implement quantum algorithms more efficiently, making use of reusable components and data structures.

 

Beryllium prioritizes reusability and modularity, making it easier for new programs to draw from a growing library of components. In mature software ecosystems, code modularity produces a well-documented network effect: developers create libraries, which in turn lower the effort required to develop new applications, thereby attracting more developers.

 

Horizon’s layered approach to quantum programming seeks to enable developers to work at their preferred level of abstraction: those working on algorithm design can start at a higher level compared to those focused on device characterization. Across these layers, each language supports user-defined instruction sets with both gate- and pulse-level control. This design lets teams leverage higher-level abstractions while still expressing low-level behavior — whether reasoning about abstract quantum information processing or engaging directly with the physics of specific processors.

 

Horizon is developing these layers incrementally to seek to provide a stable platform for future integration with its quantum algorithm synthesis techniques, with the ultimate goal of enabling developers to write complete quantum programs using familiar classical languages.

 

Horizon seeks to enable developers to write, compile, and deploy quantum programs to a variety of remote quantum processors and simulators without needing to own or manage the underlying hardware. The company has taken a cloud-first approach, where the end point of software development is a deployed web API that manages the execution of the quantum program. This approach is intended to allow developers to seamlessly integrate their quantum programs with a wide range of classical software technologies, with those programs being hosted and served through Horizon’s infrastructure.

 

Horizon also operates its own hardware testbed. Offering both tools and hardware as a service simplifies the user experience, enables seamless deployment, and ensures that Horizon’s platform remains hardware-agnostic and scalable, empowering a broad base of developers to engage with quantum computing.

 

Horizon’s Technology

 

Horizon is designing tools that aim to set a new standard for quantum software development. The company’s core approach has been to develop the software infrastructure for the development, deployment, and execution of quantum programs, with significant technological breakthroughs achieved in the development and execution layers.

 

Triple Alpha, Horizon’s integrated development environment, simplifies the process of creating quantum programs by enabling developers to code at various levels of abstraction, using Horizon’s proprietary languages. Most traditional quantum programming frameworks constrain programmers to working with static circuits, which makes algorithm design difficult, limiting what developers can express. Triple Alpha removes this constraint with its Turing-complete languages.

 

Beryllium is an object-oriented language that is expected to allow developers to use simple classical and quantum building blocks to progressively create richer, higher-level structures by reusing and extending what they have already defined. With Beryllium, developers can think in terms of information structure rather than qubits and low-level processing details. By making use of reusable components and data structures, Horizon believes that developers will able to focus on what quantum algorithms should do without needing to worry about repeated low-level details, which enables more efficient development and implementation of quantum algorithms.

By shifting the focus from how information is physically represented and processed in a quantum computer to how it can be structured and transformed, Beryllium is designed to raise the level of abstraction, reducing the need to manage quantum processing directly and making quantum software development more accessible to programmers without deep quantum expertise.

 

Triple Alpha compiles Beryllium to Helium. Helium is a BASIC-like language that simplifies the development of complex quantum programs by allowing classical and quantum operations to be expressed together in a single language. It introduces familiar control structures — loops, conditionals, subroutines — and supports concurrent classical/quantum flows. Because Helium is a Turing-complete language, developers can express algorithms of arbitrary complexity — including ones whose runtime can’t be determined in advance — unlocking a far broader class of quantum applications than traditional quantum programming framework.

 

Deployment Infrastructure

 

Horizon’s deployment infrastructure seeks to provide the bridge between quantum programs and front-end technologies. It follows design principles common in modern cloud infrastructure, providing a familiar framework for users. Once a quantum program has been compiled with Triple Alpha, it can be packaged and deployed as a web API. Through these deployed endpoints, users can send encoded inputs, interact with running programs, and retrieve outputs as the program is executed.

 

With Horizon’s deployment infrastructure, developers can integrate quantum functionality directly into other applications, whether through Python scripts, web interfaces, or even Excel macros, allowing developers to call and interact with quantum programs from familiar environments. Each deployed API includes authentication to ensure only authorized users can access or execute a program. The infrastructure also supports session management for deployed programs, maintaining isolated execution environments for multiple users or concurrent runs. This guarantees that one user’s interaction with a program does not interfere with another’s — a necessity for working in multi-user or collaborative settings.

 

Horizon’s execution infrastructure can run programs containing loops and recursive functions, runtime user inputs, mid-circuit measurements, and even calls to classical code or networked processes, capabilities that remove many of the rigid constraints of traditional circuit-based programming approaches. Many of these advanced features are unavailable through other tools on contemporary hardware systems.

 

Conventional programs rely on constructs like “while” loops and recursive functions, running until a solution is found — or indefinitely, if one isn’t. They aren’t a simple list of sequential instructions, and their runtime can’t always be predetermined. However, most of today’s quantum hardware can only execute fixed-length quantum circuits — programs whose structures must be known in advance, with zero or limited native support for dynamic runtime control, such as loops, recursion, or concurrent classical computation.

 

Horizon’s execution infrastructure seeks to overcome this limitation with full control flow support, making it possible to execute complex programs on quantum devices that lack native support for general control flow. It extends the capabilities of quantum processors, enabling them to perform beyond their built-in limitations that prohibit runtime decisions.

 

Hardware Testbed

 

Horizon is the first quantum software company to own and operate its own quantum computer. The company announced plans to establish an on-site testbed with capacity for multiple

 

Business Strategy

 

Horizon is building the software infrastructure to power the development and deployment of applications using quantum computing. At the core of this effort are tools built to help software developers make the most out of quantum computers. The company is creating the kind of software infrastructure familiar to classical developers — from high-level programming languages and optimizing compilers to the system software and runtimes needed to execute complex programs.

 

Horizon believes that this foundation positions it to serve an expanding market. We expect the total addressable market for quantum computing to grow rapidly in the coming decade, driven by both public and private investment and the emergence of quantum advantage. We believe that the quantum software segment will drive commercial adoption of quantum hardware, Horizon believes it is strategically placed to capitalize on this opportunity. Software infrastructure has proven to be important to creating value across every major computing wave, and, as history shows, the companies that shaped this infrastructure have tended to capture outsized value. Windows defined the PC era. iOS and Android did the same for mobile. AWS transformed web applications. VMware powered the modern data center, and Nvidia CUDA unlocked GPU computing. Horizon’s Triple Alpha platform aims to play that same foundational role for quantum computing.

Because Triple Alpha is expected to connect developers, end-users, and hardware providers, Horizon is positioned to sit at the heart of the quantum computing ecosystem, enabling the company to establish its product as the software infrastructure of choice for the industry. To advance this vision, Horizon’s multi-faceted business strategy focuses on product development, market penetration, and ecosystems collaboration. The company is pursuing three core strategies, through which it intends to capture market share. These are:

 

  Solving the Applications Bottleneck:    Triple Alpha is designed to tackle the most significant barrier to adoption — the difficulty of creating useful, portable quantum applications. By making quantum programming accessible to millions of conventional software developers, Horizon expects to dramatically expand the potential developer base and accelerate the discovery of practical use cases for quantum computing.

 

  Building a Strategic Ecosystem:    Rather than competing with hardware providers, Horizon seeks to engage with them. The company expects collaborations with leading hardware companies, control systems manufacturers, and software to act as a powerful distribution channel because these providers could embed Horizon software within their ecosystems, providing direct access to their customers.

 

  Demonstrating Value:    Horizon plans to establish an applications team, which it expects to be a key driver of growth over time. The Applications team will focus on developing quantum algorithms to demonstrate practical quantum advantage for a small number of high-value problems. The team will work directly with quantum hardware vendors and enterprise customers to identify, develop, and showcase real-world applications with the goal of delivering a clear quantum advantage, driving the adoption of applications built on top of the company’s software infrastructure.

 

Business Model

 

Horizon has two primary paths to revenue: usage-based pricing on deployed applications and software licensing for on-premises deployment. When customers run applications through the company’s infrastructure (e.g. an API call or quantum job), the company plans to charge them based on usage. This model scales directly with customer activity, mirroring the familiar economics of traditional cloud and SaaS recurring business models.

 

For organizations that require on-premises control over their systems — such as research institutions, government agencies, or enterprises operating their own quantum hardware — Horizon plans to offer annual software licensing agreements that allow customers to deploy the same core technologies on their own servers or hardware.

 

Together, these complementary revenue streams are expected to form a hybrid business model that combines recurring cloud usage fees with longer-term enterprise subscription licensing. The result is anticipated to be a structure that provides scalability, visibility and predictability while enabling Horizon to serve cloud-native users as well as customers with specialized infrastructure needs.

 

By hosting the deployment and execution of customer applications, Horizon can price its services in proportion to the value they create for developers, as reflected in application usage. When developers build and deploy their quantum programs using the company’s infrastructure, those workloads run on its systems rather than simply being compiled there. This setup positions Horizon to measure usage — such as the number of API calls or quantum jobs executed — and charge accordingly, resulting in a value-based model where revenue scales as customers make more use of the company’s technology to power their applications and as those applications gain adoption.

 

In addition to these core streams, Horizon’s hardware testbed creates a third potential revenue source, enabling the company to offer access to its own quantum systems for running user jobs under a Quantum Computing as a Service model.

 

Competition

 

Several alternate approaches to quantum programming exist, including control-systems programming (e.g. QUA and LabOne Q), pulse-level frameworks (e.g. OpenPulse and Quil-T), gate-level quantum programming languages (e.g. Qiskit, PyQuil, and Cirq), model-based synthesis (Classiq’s approach), and domain libraries (e.g. OpenFermion, TensorFlow Quantum, and PennyLane).

  

Triple Alpha’s advanced capabilities — such as dynamic memory management and circuit synthesis from classical code — further differentiate it from competing quantum programming approaches. With these capabilities, it provides a higher level of abstraction than most approaches while still supporting low-level control when needed. Horizon also holds patents on techniques that automatically construct accelerated quantum algorithms from classical code — moving beyond simply translating the instructions to a quantum-compatible form to actually generating quantum-accelerated implementations of the code’s functionality (see — “Intellectual Property”).

Recent Developments

 

The Business Combination

 

On March 19, 2026, the Company consummated the previously announced business combination with DMY, pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement by and among DMY, the Company, Merger Sub 1, Merger Sub 2, and Horizon.

 

On the Amalgamation Effective Time, the Amalgamation occurred, with Horizon surviving the Amalgamation as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and the outstanding shares of Horizon being converted into the right to receive shares of the Company’s Class A Shares or the right to receive shares of the Company’s Class B Shares, as the case may be. Subsequent to the Amalgamation, the Merger occurred, with DMY surviving the Merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and the outstanding securities of DMY being converted into the right to receive Company Class A Shares and/or Company Warrants of the Company.

 

Under the Business Combination Agreement, the aggregate merger consideration amount paid to the shareholders of Horizon is $508,384,000 and was paid entirely in newly issued Company Class A Shares and Company Class B Ordinary, at the Closing. 

 

As a result of the Business Combination, (a) each Horizon Ordinary Share was automatically converted into the right to receive a number of Company Shares equal to the Exchange Ratio, on the terms and subject to the conditions of the Business Combination Agreement (b) the shares of Horizon that were held by Joseph Fitzsimons, the Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Horizon and the Company, that were issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Amalgamation Effective Time were cancelled and converted into the right to receive such number of Company Class B Shares equal to the Exchange Ratio and in accordance with the Business Combination Agreement, with each such Company Class B Ordinary Share entitling each holder thereof to three (3) votes for each Company Class B Ordinary Share held (c) each SAFE was canceled and automatically deemed represent the right to receive a number of Company Class A Shares equal to the Exchange Ratio multiplied by the number of Horizon ordinary shares (on an as-converted basis) subject to such SAFE, and (d) each Horizon Option became a Company Option containing the same terms, conditions, vesting and other provisions as are currently applicable to such Horizon Options, provided that each Company Option are exercisable for the number of Company Class A Shares equal to the Exchange Ratio multiplied by the number of Horizon Ordinary Shares subject to the Horizon Option as of immediately prior to the Amalgamation Effective Time, rounded down to the nearest whole share, at an exercise price equal to the per share exercise price of the Horizon Option divided by the Exchange Ratio, rounded up to the nearest whole cent.

 

After the completion of the Amalgamation and prior to the Merger, (1) DMY effected the redemption of Public Shares that were submitted for redemption and not withdrawn, (2) each outstanding DMY Class B Shares underwent the Class B Share Conversion, and (3) each DMY Unit underwent the Unit Separation and the holder of each DMY Unit was deemed to hold one DMY Class A Share and one-half of one DMY Public Warrants.

 

At the effective time of the Merger, (a) each outstanding DMY Class A Share (excluding any Public Shares which were redeemed) were automatically converted into the right to receive one Company Class A Ordinary Share, (b) each outstanding whole DMY Public Warrant (including DMY Public Warrants issued upon the Unit Separation) were assumed as Company Public Warrants, and (c) each outstanding DMY Private Warrants was assumed for Sponsor Warrants.

 

On December 4, 2025 and March 6, 2026, the Company entered into PIPE Subscription Agreements with DMY, Horizon and PIPE Investors, pursuant to which, among other things, the PIPE Investors agreed to subscribe for and purchase, and the Company agreed to issue and sell to the PIPE Investors, an aggregate of 9,196,021 Company Class A Shares, at a purchase price equal to $11.82 per share (the “PIPE Private Placement”) in connection with a financing effort related to the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement. The PIPE Private Placement was consummated simultaneously with the closing of the Business Combination. Further, on March 6, 2026, DMY, the Company and Horizon offered to each PIPE Investor the option to elect to satisfy their PIPE Investment by purchasing Open-Market Purchase Shares no later than one (1) Business Day prior to the redemption deadline for the Special Meeting, which purchases would result in a Reduction Right.

 

As a result of the foregoing transactions, there were 51,578,134 Company Shares (consisting of 31,833,549 Company Class A Shares and 19,744,585 Company Class B Shares) and 6,044,160 Warrants (consisting of 3,159,500 Company Public Warrants and 2,884,660 Sponsor Warrants) outstanding as of the date of this prospectus.

Summary of Risk Factors

 

Our business faces significant risks and uncertainties. You should carefully consider all of the information set forth in this prospectus and in other documents we file with or furnish to the SEC, including the following risk factors, before deciding to invest in or to maintain an investment in our securities. Our business, as well as our reputation, financial condition, results of operations and share price, could be materially adversely affected by any of these risks, as well as other risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or not currently considered material. These risks include, among others, the following:

 

Risks Related to Our Business and Industry

 

We will require a significant amount of cash as we invest in ongoing research and development and business operations. Additionally, we may need additional capital sooner than anticipated to pursue our business objectives, respond to business opportunities, challenges or unforeseen circumstances and we cannot be sure that additional financing will be available. If we are unable to raise additional funding when needed, we may be required to delay, limit or substantially reduce our development efforts.

 

  We are in our very early stages and have a limited operating history, which makes it difficult to forecast the future results of our operations. It is also possible quantum computing might never become commercially viable or embraced. Our technology roadmap, including the anticipated milestones and timing thereof, may change. 

 

  Our current business model is built on the assumption that our quantum algorithm synthesis technology can effectively convert classical code into practical, quantum-accelerated applications. However, there is no guarantee that our toolchain will consistently generate quantum applications that outperform classical solutions. If our software cannot deliver a meaningful performance advantage, the market for our products and services may not develop as we anticipate which would materially harm our business and financial prospects.
     
  We rely on third-party quantum hardware providers to deliver the compute necessary for our software to function. The pace of hardware development, including factors like qubit counts, error rates and availability, is outside of our control. If the underlying hardware ecosystem does not mature as quickly as we expect, or if a major hardware provider fails, it could create delays for our business and severely impact our ability to deliver solutions to potential customers.
     
  We invest significantly in research and development, and to the extent our research and development investments do not translate into new capabilities or material enhancements to Triple Alpha, or any new platform we may create, or if we do not use those investments efficiently, our business and results of operations would be harmed.
     
  We have a history of operating losses and expect to incur significant expenses and continuing losses for the foreseeable future. In addition, we have never generated any material revenue from product sales and may never be profitable.

Risks Related to Litigation and Government Regulation

 

  We are required to comply with stringent, complex and evolving laws, rules, regulations and standards in many jurisdictions, as well as contractual obligations, relating to data privacy and security. Any actual or perceived failure to comply with these requirements could have a material adverse effect on our business.
     
  We may become subject to product liability claims, which could harm our financial condition and liquidity if we are not able to successfully defend or insure against such claims.
     
  Government actions and regulations, such as tariffs, trade protection measures and national security concerns may limit our ability to provide products and services to our future customers and obtain products from our suppliers, which could have a material adverse impact on our business operations, financial results and growth plans.

 

Risks Related to our Intellectual Property

 

  We may be unable to obtain, maintain and protect our intellectual property rights and proprietary information such as if the scope of patent protection obtained is not sufficiently broad. Our competitors could develop and commercialize products and technology similar or identical to ours, and our ability to successfully commercialize our products and technology may be adversely affected.
     
  We may face patent infringement and other intellectual property claims that could be costly to defend, result in injunctions and significant damage awards or other costs. If third parties claim that we infringe upon or otherwise violate their intellectual property rights, our business could be adversely affected.

 

Risks Related to Ownership of Our Securities

 

  Following the Closing of the Business Combination, our only significant asset is our ownership of Horizon, and such ownership may not be sufficient to pay dividends or make distributions or obtain loans to enable us to pay any dividends on our Company Shares, pay our expenses or satisfy other financial obligations.
     
  Our management team has limited experience managing and operating a U.S. public company.
     
  We do not expect to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future.
     
  Our actual financial position and results of operations may differ materially from the unaudited pro forma financial information included in this prospectus.
     
  Investors may face difficulties enforcing foreign court judgments against us.

 

  Because Joseph Fitzsimons, our chief executive officer and Chairman of our Board, beneficially own approximately 38.3% of our outstanding Company Shares and approximately 65.0% of the voting control of the Company as of the Closing of the Business Combination.

  Future sales of our securities or warrants exercisable for our Company Class A Shares may depress our stock price.
     
  An active, liquid trading market for our Company Class A Shares and Company Public Warrants may not develop, which may limit your ability to sell our Company Class A Shares or Company Public Warrants.
     
  The price of our securities may be volatile, and the value of our securities may decline.
     
  We may redeem unexpired Company Warrants prior to their exercise at a time that is disadvantageous to you, thereby making your Company Warrants worthless.
     
  The Company Warrants will be recognized and accounted for as derivative liabilities in accordance with ASC 815 and will be recorded at fair value upon issuance with changes in fair value each period reported in earnings, which may have an adverse effect on the market price of the Company Class A Shares.

 

Risks Related to Investments in Singapore Companies

 

  Singapore take-over laws contain provisions which may vary from those in other jurisdictions.

 

Corporate History

 

Horizon was founded in 2018 in Singapore to close the gap between quantum hardware and application. In November 2018, Horizon successfully secured seed funding. In March 2019, Horizon hired its first three employees and began operations. In early 2020, Horizon was one of the first external companies to be granted access to Rigetti’s pulse-level programming interface Quil-T, which Horizon used to demonstrate proprietary techniques for rapidly characterizing quantum processors and reducing errors.

 

In 2021, Horizon demonstrated key parts of its compile chain including automatic recognition of opportunities for quantum acceleration in a subset of the MATLAB programming language. In 2022, Horizon became the first start-up to host a node on Singapore’s National Quantum-Safe Network. This node enabled a collaboration with the AWS Center for Quantum Networking, Fortinet Inc., and the Centre for Quantum Technologies at the National University of Singapore to demonstrate a point-to-point, quantum-secured communications link over approximately 16 kilometers. That year, the company also introduced new techniques for enabling general control flow execution on quantum computers that lack native support for feed-forward.

 

In 2023, Horizon opened a second office in Dublin, Ireland. Late that year, the company launched early access to Triple Alpha, its integrated development environment, and implemented a first demonstration of interactive quantum computing enabled by the system.

 

In 2024, Horizon unveiled new capabilities in Triple Alpha, including support for dynamic quantum memory allocation, measurement-based quantum computing, and pulse-level control, along with a powerful new approach to program optimization that works for arbitrary instruction sets. It also initiated development of a hardware testbed at the Singapore headquarters. Designed to host and tightly integrate quantum computers with the Triple Alpha platform, the testbed takes a modular multi-vendor approach, allowing Horizon to deeply integrate its software infrastructure with different hardware configurations and to upgrade the systems over time.

 

In 2025, Horizon completed the assembly and integration of a fully operational quantum computer in its Singapore testbed. We also extended the capabilities of its software stack, introducing pulse optimization, which enables programmers to deploy any gate with pulses, and real-time execution, which is facilitated by compiling programs to control systems code. At the end of the year, Horizon previewed Beryllium, its object-oriented programming language.

 

On March 19, 2026, the Company consummated the previously announced Business Combination with DMY, pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement by and among DMY, the Company, Merger Sub 1, the Merger Sub 2, and Horizon. See “—The Business Combination” above and “Corporate History and Structure – Business Combination with DMY” below for a more detailed description of the Business Combination.

 

Horizon is a founding partner of both the Southeast Asia Quantum Industry Association and the Quantum Business Network in APAC, and of the Trinity Quantum Alliance in Ireland. The company has also joined industry bodies like the Quantum Industrial Standard Association of Korea and the European Quantum Industry Consortium.

Emerging Growth Company

 

We are an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by JOBS Act, and we 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 an emerging growth 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 an election to opt out is irrevocable. We have 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, we, 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 our financial statements with another public company that is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company that has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.

 

We will remain an emerging growth company until the earlier of: (1) the last day of the fiscal year (i) following the fifth anniversary of the consummation of the Business Combination, (ii) in which we have total annual gross revenue of at least US$1.235 billion, or (iii) in which we are deemed to be a large accelerated filer, which means the market value of Class A Shares that are held by non-affiliates exceeds US$700 million as of the last business day of its most recently completed second fiscal quarter; and (2) the date on which we have issued more than US$1.00 billion in non-convertible debt securities during the prior three-year period. References herein to “emerging growth company” have the meaning associated with it in the JOBS Act.

 

Foreign Private Issuer

 

We are a foreign private issuer within the meaning of the rules under the Exchange Act and, as such, we are permitted to follow the corporate governance practices of our home country, Singapore, in lieu of the corporate governance standards of Nasdaq applicable to U.S. domestic companies. For example, we are not required to have a majority of the board consisting of independent directors nor have a compensation committee or a nominating and corporate governance committee consisting entirely of independent directors. We intend to follow our home country’s corporate governance practices as long as we remain a foreign private issuer. As a result, our shareholders may not have the same protection afforded to shareholders of U.S. domestic companies that are subject to Nasdaq corporate governance requirements. As a foreign private issuer, we are also subject to reduced disclosure requirements and are exempt from certain provisions of the U.S. securities rules and regulations applicable to U.S. domestic issuers such as the rules regulating solicitation of proxies and certain insider reporting and short-swing profit rules.

RISK FACTORS

 

Investing in our securities involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described below together with all of the other information contained in this prospectus, including our financial statements and related notes appearing at the end of this prospectus and in the section titled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” before deciding to invest in our securities. Although we have organized risks generally according to these categories in the discussion below, many of the risks may have ramifications in more than one category. These categories, therefore, should be viewed as a starting point for understanding the significant risks we face and not as a limitation on the potential impact of the matters discussed. If any of the events or developments described below were to occur, our business, prospects, operating results and financial condition could suffer materially, the trading price of our securities could decline, and you could lose all or part of your investment. The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only ones we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently believe to be immaterial may also adversely affect our business.

 

Risks Related to Our Business and Industry

 

We will require a significant amount of cash as we invest in ongoing research and development and business operations. Additionally, we may need additional capital sooner than anticipated to pursue our business objectives, respond to business opportunities, challenges or unforeseen circumstances and we cannot be sure that additional financing will be available. If we are unable to raise additional funding when needed, we may be required to delay, limit or substantially reduce our development efforts.

 

Our business and future plans for expansion are research and development intensive and the specific timing of cash inflows and outflows may fluctuate substantially from period to period for such endeavors. For example, in addition to our continuing investment in our technology roadmap, we continue to invest in the expansion of and upgrades to our modular quantum hardware testbed and infrastructure, cloud computing resources, ongoing commercialization efforts, global talent acquisition and the professional and legal costs associated with being a public company. The actual amounts we may be required to spend on these and other matters could be significant, and may exceed our expectations.

 

We believe that the proceeds of the Business Combination, including the proceeds from the PIPE Private Placement and funds disbursed from the Trust Account, together with our other existing cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities will be sufficient to meet our anticipated operating cash needs for at least the next 12 months based on our current business plan, and expectations and assumptions considering current macroeconomic conditions. Our operating plan may change because of factors currently unknown, and we may need to seek additional funds sooner than planned, through public or private equity or debt financings or other sources, such as strategic collaborations or other transactions. In addition, we may seek additional capital even if we believe that we have sufficient funds for current or future operating plans. Such financings may result in dilution to shareholders, the issuance of securities with priority as to liquidation and dividend and other rights more favorable than the Company Shares, the imposition of debt covenants and repayment obligations or other restrictions that may adversely affect our business. Any funds we raise may not be sufficient to fund our operations or enable us to continue to implement our long-term business strategy. Further, our ability to raise additional capital may be adversely impacted by worsening global economic conditions, disruptions to and volatility in the credit and financial markets in the United States and current and future military conflicts and wars around the world including related sanctions, tariffs and trade protection measures. There can be no assurance that deterioration in credit and financial markets and loss of confidence in economic conditions will not occur. A severe or prolonged economic downturn could result in a variety of risks to our business, including weakened demand for our products and services and our ability to raise additional capital when needed on acceptable terms, if at all. If the equity and credit markets deteriorate, it may make any necessary financing more difficult, more costly and more dilutive. Failure to secure any necessary financing in a timely manner and on favorable terms could impair our ability to achieve our growth strategy, could harm our financial performance and stock price, could require us to delay or abandon our business plans and could require us to delay, limit or substantially reduce our development efforts.

 

12

 

 

If we are unable to obtain sufficient capital we would be unable to fund our operations and may be required to evaluate alternatives, which could include dissolving and liquidating our assets in which case we may receive less than the value at which those assets are carried on our audited financial statements, and/or seeking protection under bankruptcy laws. A determination to file for bankruptcy could occur at a time that is earlier than when we would otherwise exhaust our cash resources, and it is unclear to what extent we would be able to pay our obligations, and to what extent any assets would be available for distribution to shareholders. This could potentially cause us to cease operations and result in a complete or partial loss of your investment in our securities. We cannot anticipate all of the ways in which the economic climate and financial market and geopolitical conditions could adversely impact our business.

 

There can be no assurance that future financing will be available to us on favorable terms, or at all. In addition, our ability to raise additional capital through the sale of securities could be significantly impacted by the resale of our securities by holders of our securities which could result in a significant decline in the trading price of our securities and potentially hinder our ability to raise capital at terms that are acceptable to us or at all.

 

We are in our very early stages and have a limited operating history, which makes it difficult to forecast the future results of our operations. It is also possible quantum computing might never become commercially viable or embraced. Our technology roadmap, including the anticipated milestones and timing thereof, may change.

 

Our business was founded in 2018, and we began developing our current quantum software development tools that same year. As a result of our limited operating history, our ability to accurately forecast our future results of operations is limited and subject to a number of uncertainties, including our ability to plan for and model future growth. Our ability to generate revenues will largely be dependent on our ability to develop our products and services within the quantum computing industry and on the further development and commercialization of quantum computers and their software infrastructure. We are still in the technology development phase of our business plan. Our scalable business model has not been formed as of yet and our technology roadmap may not be realized as quickly as hoped, or even at all. In the future, we may fail to meet publicly announced milestones or fail to meet projected technological milestones. We may further update our technology roadmap in the future, including anticipated milestones and anticipated timeline for milestones. The development of our scalable business model will likely require the incurrence of a substantially higher level of costs than incurred to date, while our revenues will not substantially increase unless and until more powerful, scalable, higher performing computers are produced and commercially available to our potential customers, which requires a number of technological advancements which may not occur on the currently anticipated timetable or at all. As a result, any financial results we achieve in future periods should not be considered indicative of our performance for periods subsequent to those periods. Further, in future periods, our growth could slow or decline for a number of reasons, including but not limited to slowing demand for sales of our quantum software development tools, increased competition, changes to technology, inability to scale up or improve performance of our technology, a decrease in the growth of the market, or our failure, for any reason, to continue to take advantage of growth opportunities.

 

We are early in our development efforts and we have only recently begun to commercialize our products and services. Our business model is predicated on quantum computing becoming both commercially viable and embraced by our potential customers and target industries. In the event the quantum computing fails to generate meaningful results at a commercially viable cost, we may need to adapt our business model and technology roadmap in response.

 

We have also encountered, and will continue to encounter, risks and uncertainties frequently experienced by growing companies in rapidly changing industries. If our assumptions regarding these risks and uncertainties and our future growth are incorrect or change, or if we do not address these risks successfully, our operating and financial results could differ materially from our expectations, and our business could suffer. Our success as a business ultimately relies upon fundamental research and development breakthroughs in the coming years from our company and quantum computing hardware companies. There is no certainty these research and development milestones will be achieved as quickly as hoped, or even at all.

The quantum computing industry is in its early stages and volatile, and if it does not develop, if it develops slower than we expect, if it develops in a manner that does not require use of our quantum computing solutions, or if it encounters negative publicity or if our solution does not drive commercial engagement, the growth of our business will be harmed.

 

The nascent market for quantum computer and quantum computing solutions is still rapidly evolving, characterized by rapidly changing technologies, competitive pricing and competitive factors, evolving government regulation and industry standards and changing customer demands and behaviors. If demand for quantum computers and quantum solutions in general does not develop as expected, or develops more slowly than expected, our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results could be harmed.

 

In addition, our growth and future demand for our products is highly dependent upon the adoption by developers and customers of quantum computers, as well as on our ability to demonstrate the value of quantum computing to our potential customers. Delays in future generations of our quantum development tools or technical failures at other quantum computing companies could limit acceptance of our solutions. Negative publicity concerning our solutions or the quantum computing industry as a whole could limit acceptance of our solutions. We believe quantum computing will solve many large-scale problems. However, such problems may never be solvable by quantum computing technology, which will limit the overall market and interest in quantum computing based applications.

 

If our future clients and partners do not perceive the benefits of our solutions, or if our solutions do not drive member engagement, then demand for our products may not develop at all, or it may develop slower than we expect. If any of these events occur, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.

 

Our current business model is built on the assumption that our quantum algorithm synthesis technology can effectively convert classical code into practical, quantum-accelerated applications. However, there is no guarantee that our toolchain will consistently generate quantum applications that outperform classical solutions. If our software cannot deliver a meaningful performance advantage, the market for our products and services may not develop as we anticipate which would materially harm our business and financial prospects.

 

Our current business model is predicated on the successful development and market adoption of our quantum algorithm synthesis technology. While we believe this technology will enable us to convert classical code into practical, quantum-accelerated applications, there can be no guarantee that we will be successful in doing so. Our existing software toolchain, while functional, may not consistently produce quantum applications that provide a meaningful performance advantage over existing classical solutions.

 

Specifically, demonstrating a clear and consistent performance advantage is difficult due to several factors, including:

 

  the benchmark for what constitutes a “meaningful advantage” is evolving. Classical computing methods and algorithms are continuously improving, and a problem that is difficult for classical computers today may become easier in the future, eroding our potential advantage. Additionally, even if we are able to produce a meaningful advantage when compared with classical computing methods, there is no guarantee we will be able to deliver these results at a commercially reasonable price point for our intended customers;

 

  currently available quantum computers, including our own hardware testbed, have limitations in terms of qubit count, error rates and stability. These limitations can hinder our ability to run complex algorithms and demonstrate a tangible performance gain over classical supercomputers;

 

  the number of practical, real-world problems for which quantum computing offers a clear and demonstrable advantage remains limited. If we are unable to identify and commercialize compelling use cases where our software consistently outperforms classical methods, our ability to attract and retain customers will be harmed; and

 

  if the applications generated by our software do not significantly outperform their classical counterparts in terms of accuracy or efficiency, the market for our products and services may not develop as we anticipate. In this scenario, potential customers may not see a compelling reason to invest in our technology, which would severely harm our business and financial prospects.

 

14

 

 

We have broad discretion in how we can use our capital resources from the Closing of the Business Combination. If we fail to manage our capital resources effectively, our business, financial condition, operating results and cash flow could be adversely affected.

 

Upon the closing of the PIPE Private Placement and the Business Combination we received aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $120 million. We intend to use our capital resources for general working capital purposes. However, management has broad flexibility and discretion in applying the net proceeds of the PIPE Private Placement and Business Combination for working capital. Our shareholders will be relying on the judgment of management with regard to the use of these proceeds, and they will not have the opportunity, as part of their investment decision, to assess whether the proceeds are being used in a way they approve. Our executive officers have limited experience with managing capital in amounts similar to the gross proceeds received from the PIPE Investment, and as a result, it is possible that the net proceeds will be invested in a way that does not yield a favorable, or any, return for us. The failure of our executive officers to use such funds effectively could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, operating results and cash flow.

 

We rely on third-party quantum hardware providers to deliver the compute necessary for our software to function. The pace of hardware development, including factors like qubit counts, error rates and availability, is outside of our control. If the underlying hardware ecosystem does not mature as quickly as we expect, or if a major hardware provider fails, it could create delays for our business and severely impact our ability to deliver solutions to potential customers.

 

We rely on third-party providers for the quantum computing power essential to our software’s operation. This dependence exposes our business to substantial risks, as the pace and quality of hardware development are entirely outside our control. The quantum computing industry is still in its nascent stage, and the hardware landscape is characterized by rapidly changing technology and a limited number of viable providers. The performance and functionality of our software are critically dependent on the technical specifications of the underlying hardware. Two of the most important metrics are:

 

  Qubit Count — The number of qubits in a quantum computer directly determines the complexity of the problems it can handle. Our applications are designed to address problems that are intractable for classical computers, and these require a sufficient number of qubits to execute. If a provider’s hardware roadmap for scaling qubit counts is not delivered on schedule, our ability to deliver on our own technology roadmap may be severely compromised.

 

  Error Rates — Quantum systems are highly susceptible to errors due to the fragile nature of qubits. These errors can corrupt computations and make results unreliable. Our software is designed with certain assumptions about hardware error rates. If the actual error rates of a provider’s hardware are higher than anticipated, it could require significant modifications to our software to mitigate these errors, leading to delays and increased development costs. For our software to be truly effective, the hardware must have low enough error rates to allow for the use of quantum error correction techniques, which are necessary for complex and long-running algorithms. The threshold for this is generally considered to be below a 1% error rate for two-qubit gates on a reliable basis, a metric still being perfected by many providers.

 

We rely on a small number of third-party providers; a failure or significant setback at any one of them could have a material and adverse effect on our business. If a major provider experiences a technical failure, ceases operations, or changes its business model in a way that makes their hardware inaccessible or prohibitively expensive, it may affect our services or business model. Should we need to transition to an alternative provider, we may face difficulties securing one on acceptable terms or with the capabilities required to support our systems. Given the early-stage nature of the quantum computing industry, our options for alternative providers may be significantly limited. Furthermore, if the development of quantum computing hardware does not progress as expected or if such hardware becomes unavailable to us or our providers, our business could also be adversely impacted.

 

15

 

 

Customers may not perceive the value proposition of a classical-to-quantum compilation toolchain or may prefer alternative methods for developing quantum applications or programs.

 

Our business depends on the adoption and continued use of our classical-to-quantum compilation toolchain by organizations and developers seeking to build and deploy quantum applications. The market for quantum computing is still nascent and rapidly evolving, and potential customers may not yet fully understand or appreciate the advantages of our toolchain. Our potential customers may also determine that existing or alternative development methods such as manually optimized quantum code, hardware-specific programming environments, or competing software platforms better meet their needs, budget, or technical requirements.

 

If potential customers do not recognize the value of our solution, or if alternative approaches gain broader acceptance, our ability to acquire new users, grow revenues and achieve or sustain profitability could be materially and adversely affected. Additionally, significant investment in educating the market or adapting our offerings to align with customer preferences could increase operating expenses and delay or reduce our expected growth.

 

We invest significantly in research and development, and to the extent our research and development investments do not translate into new capabilities or material enhancements to Triple Alpha, or any new platform we may create, or if we do not use those investments efficiently, our business and results of operations would be harmed.

 

A key element of our strategy is to invest significantly in our research and development efforts to develop new products and enhance our existing products to address additional applications and markets. In the fiscal years 2025 and 2024, our research and development expenses were 48.5% and 44.0% of our operating losses, respectively. If we do not spend our research and development budget efficiently or effectively on compelling innovation and technologies, our business could be harmed and we may not realize the expected benefits of our strategy. Moreover, research and development projects can be technically challenging and expensive. The nature of these research and development cycles may cause us to experience delays between the time we incur expenses associated with research and development and the time we are able to offer compelling products and generate revenue, if any, from such investment. Additionally, anticipated customer demand for a product we are developing could decrease after the development cycle has commenced, and we would nonetheless be unable to avoid substantial costs associated with the development of any such product. If we expend significant resources on research and development and our efforts do not lead to the successful introduction or improvement of products that are competitive in our current or future markets, it could harm our business and results of operations.

 

Furthermore, our ability to increase any future revenue and attract potential customers will depend in significant part on our ability to anticipate and respond effectively to rapid technological changes and market developments as well as the evolving quantum computing landscape. The success of our Triple Alpha platform, and any other platform we may create, depends on our ability to take such changes into account and invest effectively in our research and development organization to increase the reliability, availability and scalability of our existing solutions and introduce new solutions. If we fail to effectively anticipate, identify or respond to such changes in a timely manner, or at all, our business could be harmed. Even if we adequately fund our research and development efforts there is no guarantee that we will realize a return on such efforts, either monetarily or in the form of increased performance of our existing and future platforms. 

 

We have a history of operating losses and expect to incur significant expenses and continuing losses for the foreseeable future. In addition, we have never generated any material revenue from product sales and may never be profitable.

 

We incurred net losses of S$23.1 million and S$7.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. As of December 31, 2025, we had an accumulated deficit of S$44.5 million. We believe that we will continue to incur operating and net losses each quarter until at least the time we begin generating significant revenue from our quantum software development tools, which may never occur.

 

16

 

 

We may incur significantly higher losses in future periods as we, among other things, continue to make significant expenses in connection with the design and development of our software development tools; as we expand our research and development activities; increase the size and scope of our facilities; expand our number of developers; increase our sales and marketing activities; develop our infrastructure; and increase our general and administrative functions to support our growing operations and our being a public company.

 

We may find that these efforts are more expensive than we currently anticipate or that these efforts may not result in revenues, which would further increase our losses. If we are unable to achieve and sustain profitability, or if we are unable to achieve the growth that we expect from these investments, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations. Our business model is unproven and may never allow us to cover our costs.

 

We currently generate no meaningful revenue and we may never be able to develop our technology or a marketable product. Our ability to generate meaningful revenue, which we do not expect to occur for several years, if ever, remains uncertain. Many factors could affect any future profitability, including but not limited to costs of development, consumer reception to our products, unpredictable market conditions, as well as unforeseen events. There is a possibility that we may never generate revenue or generate adequate revenue to operate profitably or continue as a going concern.

 

If we cannot successfully execute on our strategy, including due to changing customer needs and new technologies and other market requirements, or achieve our objectives in a timely manner, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be harmed.

 

The quantum computing and software development markets are characterized by rapid technological change, changing user requirements, uncertain product lifecycles and evolving industry standards. We believe that the pace of innovation will continue to accelerate as technology changes and different approaches to quantum computing mature on a broad range of factors, including system architecture, error correction, performance and scale, ease of programming, user experience, markets addressed, types of data processed and data governance and regulatory compliance. Our future success depends on our ability to continue to innovate and increase future customer adoption of our products and services. If we are unable to enhance our products and services to keep pace with these rapidly evolving potential customer requirements, or if new technologies emerge that are able to deliver competitive products at lower prices, more efficiently, with better functionality, more conveniently, or more securely than our platform, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.

 

While the potential market for our quantum computing software tools is very broad, our achievement of commercial successes will require continued research and development in order for our products and services to fully address the software market, and if that research and development is not successful this may limit adoption of our products and services to a narrow range of potential customers. If we cannot successfully attract a broad range of future customers to our quantum computing software development tools, our business will be negatively impacted and could fail.

 

Even if we are successful in executing on our product roadmap and strategy and delivering increasingly more effective quantum computing software development tools and services, competitors in the industry may achieve technological breakthroughs that render our products and services obsolete or inferior to other products and services or that can be offered at lower costs than our products and services.

 

Our continued growth and success depend on our ability to innovate and develop quantum software technology in a timely manner and effectively market these products. Without the timely introduction of new products, services and enhancements that comply with changing laws and standards, including through the use of new and emerging technologies (e.g., artificial intelligence and machine learning), we could be at a competitive disadvantage and our offerings could become technologically or commercially obsolete over time, in which case our revenue and operating results would suffer. Any technological breakthroughs which render our technology obsolete or inferior to other products could have a material effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.

 

17

 

 

Our estimates of market opportunity and forecasts of market growth may prove to be inaccurate. Even if the market in which we compete achieves its anticipated growth levels, our business could fail to grow at similar rates, if at all.

 

Our success will depend upon our ability to expand, scale our operations, generate sales and enhance our corresponding support capability. Even if the market in which we compete meets the size estimates and growth forecasted, our business could fail to grow at similar rates, if at all.

 

Our growth is dependent upon our ability to successfully sell quantum software development tools, expand our solutions and services, bring in new customers, retain such new customers, and retain critical talent. Unforeseen issues associated with scaling up and constructing quantum computing technology at commercially viable levels could have a negative impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations. We do not have experience with supplying a large number of customers with our tools and services, or the sale and retention to new customers. Our growth and long-term success will depend upon the development of our sales and retention capabilities.

 

Moreover, because of our differentiated technology, our potential customers will require particular support and service functions, some of which are not currently available, and may never be available. If we experience delays in adding such support capacity or servicing our potential customers efficiently or experiencing unforeseen issues with the reliability of our technology, we could overburden our servicing and support capabilities. Similarly, increasing the number of our products and services would require us to rapidly increase the availability of these services. Failure to adequately support and service our potential customers may inhibit our growth and ability to expand.

 

There is no assurance that we will be able to scale our business to meet our sales and distribution targets globally, that expected growth levels will prove accurate or that the pace of growth or coverage of our customer infrastructure network will meet future customer expectations. For example, our competitors may achieve certain narrow and/or broad quantum milestones faster than us, which may negatively impact our business and prospects. Failure to grow at rates similar to that of the quantum computing industry may adversely affect our operating results and ability to effectively compete within the industry.

 

Reductions in research and development spending by academic institutions and other research entities could limit demand for our products and services and adversely affect our business, operating results, financial condition and future prospects.

 

The demand for our current and future quantum computing platforms and software tools may depend in part on the research and development budgets of academic institutions and research entities, which are subject to various factors beyond our control, including:

 

  decreases in government funding for quantum computing and broader scientific research initiatives;

 

  changes to grant programs that support research institutions, including shifts in funding priorities or administrative processes that extend funding cycles;

 

  macroeconomic conditions and shifts in the political landscape;

 

  academic and industry perceptions of the utility, scalability and readiness of quantum computing solutions;

 

  researchers’ and institutional stakeholders’ evaluations of the performance and reliability of our quantum hardware and software offerings;

 

  citation and recognition of our technology in peer-reviewed quantum research publications;

 

  emerging changes in national or international regulatory frameworks impacting quantum technologies;

 

  variations in procurement and funding cycles, especially for government-backed or grant-funded organizations, where purchasing decisions often align with fiscal year-end timelines;

 

  competitive developments in quantum hardware, software, or pricing strategies;

 

  the pace of market adoption and maturity of quantum computing technologies; and

 

  institutional and governmental efforts to consolidate infrastructure, reduce redundancy and contain costs.

 

18

 

 

In addition, funding agencies at various governmental levels may face fiscal pressures that could lead to reduced budgets, lower grant allocations, or restructured funding programs. Such developments could limit the ability of academic institutions and other research entities to procure our products or invest in emerging quantum initiatives. For instance, while agencies such as the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) and the National Science Foundation (NSF) have increased their investment in quantum research in recent years through programs like the National Quantum Initiative, funding levels may fluctuate due to political or economic shifts. A reduction in appropriations or delays in grant approvals from these or similar institutions, such as the European High-Performance Computing Joint Undertaking (EuroHPC) or Japan’s Quantum Technology Innovation Strategy programs, could diminish funding available for quantum research. This, in turn, could lead to fewer opportunities for us to sell our products and services to research institutions, negatively impacting our financial performance.

 

Any material decrease in the budgets or expenditures of our potential customers, or a reduction in the scale, frequency, or scope of their quantum R&D investments, could materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations, financial condition and growth prospects.

 

We depend on advances in technology by other companies and academic institutions, if those advances do not materialize, some of our products may not be successfully commercialized.

 

Our quantum computing solutions depend on continued innovation in areas such as quantum hardware, error correction and cryogenics, much of which is being developed by third parties, including academic institutions, national labs and specialized technology companies. We do not control the pace or success of these external efforts. Delays or failures in these areas could hinder our ability to bring certain products to market, impact performance expectations, or increase development costs. As a result, our commercial prospects could be materially and adversely affected if the broader ecosystem does not progress as anticipated.

 

If we fail to effectively manage our growth, our business and results of operations could be harmed.

 

Our failure to manage growth effectively could harm our business, results of operations and financial condition. We anticipate that a period of significant expansion will be required to facilitate potential growth. This expansion will place a significant strain on our management, operational and financial resources. For example, expansion of and upgrades to our facilities and systems is continual and ongoing, and we may not complete expansions and upgrades on terms originally anticipated, in a timely manner or at all, which could have a material impact on our business, financial condition or results of operations. Expansions and upgrades require significant cash investments and management resources and there is no guarantee that there will be future sales of our products or services, or that we will be able to avoid cost overruns or be able to hire additional personnel to support us. In addition, we also need to ensure our compliance with regulatory requirements in various jurisdictions applicable to the sale, installation and servicing of our products.

 

To manage the growth of our operations and personnel, we must establish and maintain appropriate and scalable operational and financial systems, procedures and controls and establish and maintain a qualified finance, administrative and operations staff. We may be unable to acquire the necessary capabilities and personnel required to manage growth or to identify, manage and exploit potential strategic relationships and market opportunities.

 

If we fail to attract customers and retain and increase the spending of such customers over time, our revenue, business, results of operations, financial condition and growth prospects would be harmed.

 

Even if the quantum computing industry, in which we compete, achieves the forecasted growth, our business could fail to grow at similar rates, if at all. Our success will depend upon our ability to expand our platform’s capabilities, scale our operations, build and increase our sales capability, and successfully complete professional services projects, that may or may not progress to in-production applications. Unforeseen issues associated with scaling up and access to quantum computing technology at commercially viable levels could negatively impact our business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

Our growth is dependent upon our ability to successfully market and sell quantum computing software and development tools. We plan to utilize various unpaid content marketing strategies, including customer events, seminars, webinars, blogs, thought leadership and social media engagement and third-party event sponsorship, to attract prospective users of our development platform and services. These unpaid or paid efforts may not attract a sufficient volume and quality of traffic to our development platform and services, in the future, we may be required to increase our marketing spend to achieve our volume and quality of traffic targets.

 

19

 

 

We do not have the history with revenue-producing solutions or pricing models necessary to accurately predict optimal pricing necessary to attract new customers and retain such customers.

 

We may need to identify solutions that can act as sources of revenue or change our pricing model from time to time. As the market for our platform matures, or as competitors introduce new solutions that compete with ours, we may be unable to attract potential customers at the same prices or based on the same pricing models that we intend to implement. Our assessments of competitive pricing may not be accurate and we could be underpricing or overpricing our platform and services. Our limited history of selling quantum software development tools and services means we do not have long-term market data on the optimal method of pricing our services and maximizing the opportunities they represent. In addition, if the offerings on our platform or our services change, we may need to revise our pricing strategies. Any such changes to our pricing strategies or our ability to efficiently price our offerings could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition. In addition, as we continue to expand internationally, we also must determine the appropriate pricing strategy to enable us to compete effectively internationally. Pricing pressures and decisions could result in reduced sales, reduced margins, losses or the failure of our platform to achieve or maintain more widespread market acceptance, any of which could negatively impact our overall business, results of operations and financial condition. Moreover, larger organizations, which are a primary focus of our direct sales efforts, may demand substantial price concessions. As a result, we may be required to price below our targets in the future, which could adversely affect our revenue, gross margin, profitability, cash flows and financial condition.

 

Our business and growth are dependent on the success of our strategic relationships with third parties.

 

We depend on, and anticipate that we will continue to depend on, various third-party suppliers in order to sustain and grow our business. Failure of any of these suppliers to continue to provide products and services to maintain, support or secure their technology platforms or our integrations, or errors or defects in their technologies, products or services, could adversely affect our relationships with our potential customers, damage our brand and reputation and result in delays or difficulties in our ability to provide our platform. Shortages or supply interruptions in any of these components will adversely impact our financial performance.

 

Our platform and products depend on the ability to access and integrate with third-party quantum computing and quantum computer providers. Currently, our software integrates with a number of quantum hardware providers; should we lose the ability to integrate with a number of these providers our business would be adversely harmed. We also depend on the cloud-based quantum services of providers to provide our partners and potential customers with access to remote quantum processors. Additionally, our modular hardware testbed currently relies on the operations, supply chains and services of key quantum hardware and service providers. Any disruption or failure to maintain these relationships, or any significant changes to the technologies they provide, would directly impact our ability to deliver our platform and services.

 

If we cannot maintain our company culture as we grow, we could lose our innovation, teamwork, passion and focus on execution that we believe contribute to our success and our business may be harmed.

 

We believe that our corporate culture has been a contributor to our success, which we believe fosters innovation, teamwork, passion and focus on building and marketing our Triple Alpha platform. As we grow, we may find it difficult to maintain our corporate culture. Any failure to preserve our culture could harm our future success, including our ability to retain and recruit personnel, innovate and operate effectively and execute on our business strategy. Additionally, our productivity and the quality of our solutions may be adversely affected if we do not integrate and train our new employees quickly and effectively. If we experience any of these effects in connection with future growth, it could impair our ability to attract new customers, retain such customers and expand their use of our Triple Alpha platform, and/or any other new platforms that we develop, all of which would adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. 

 

20

 

 

If we cannot maintain and enhance our brand or adequately commercialize our tools, our business, results of operations and financial condition could be harmed.

 

We believe that maintaining and enhancing our reputation as a differentiated and category-defining company is critical to our ability to attract customers. The successful promotion of our brand attributes will depend on a number of factors, including our marketing efforts, our ability to continue to develop high-quality products, our ability to minimize and respond to errors, failures, outages, vulnerabilities, or bugs and our ability to successfully differentiate our products from competitive products. In addition, independent industry analysts often provide analyses of products offered in our space, and perception of the relative value of our products in the marketplace may be significantly influenced by these analyses. If these analyses are negative, or less positive as compared to those of our competitors’ products, our brand may be harmed.

 

The promotion of our brand requires us to make substantial expenditures, and we anticipate that the expenditures will increase as our market becomes more competitive, as we expand into new markets and as more sales are generated through our partners. To the extent that these activities yield increased revenue, this revenue may not offset the increased expenses we incur. If we do not successfully maintain and enhance our brand, our business may not grow, we may have reduced pricing power relative to competitors and we could lose potential customers or fail to attract new customers, any of which could harm our business, our results of operations and financial condition.

 

Any future indebtedness may limit our flexibility in obtaining additional financing and in pursuing other business opportunities or operating activities.

 

We do not currently have any indebtedness outstanding. We have the ability to incur debt in the future. Our level of debt could have important consequences to us, including the following:

 

  our ability to obtain additional financing, if necessary, for working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions or other purposes may be impaired or such financing may not be available on favorable terms;

 

  if we incur a significant amount of debt, we may need a substantial portion of our cash flow to make principal and interest payments on our debt, reducing the funds that would otherwise be available for investment in operations and future business opportunities;

 

  if we incur a significant amount of debt, our debt level will make us more vulnerable than our competitors with less debt to competitive pressures or a downturn in our business or the economy generally; and

 

  if we incur a significant amount of debt, our debt level may limit our flexibility in responding to changing business and economic conditions.

 

Our ability to service any future debts will depend upon, among other things, our future financial and operating performance, which will be affected by prevailing economic conditions and financial, business, regulatory and other factors, some of which are beyond our control. If our operating results are not sufficient to service any future indebtedness, we will be forced to take actions such as reducing or delaying our business activities, acquisitions, investments or capital expenditures, selling assets, restructuring or refinancing our debt, or seeking additional equity capital or bankruptcy protection. We may not be able to effect any of these remedies on satisfactory terms to us or at all.

 

21

 

 

The markets in which we participate are intensely competitive, and if we do not compete effectively, our business, results of operations and financial condition could be harmed. Additionally, competitive pressures may put pressure on our pricing, which may require us to reduce our pricing in order to provide competitively priced access to our products and services.

 

The markets for our solutions are fragmented, rapidly evolving and highly competitive. We face competition from both traditional, larger software vendors offering developer tools and smaller companies offering point products for features and use cases. Many of our competitors have significantly greater financial resources and expertise in research and development, bringing products to market and possess recognizable brands and strong institutional and commercial relationships in comparison to us. Our principal competitors vary depending on the product category and include IBM (Qiskit), Classiq and Microsoft Quantum Development Kit. In addition, some of our competitors may make acquisitions to offer a more comprehensive product or service offering, which may allow them to compete more effectively with our products. We expect this trend to occur as companies attempt to strengthen or maintain their market positions in an evolving industry. Following such potential consolidations, companies may create more compelling product offerings and be able to offer more attractive pricing options, making it more difficult for us to compete effectively. Smaller or early-stage companies may also prove to be significant competitors, particularly if they pursue competing solutions through collaborative arrangements with large and established companies, such as IBM, Microsoft and Google.

  

Our competitors, particularly our competitors with much greater financial and operating resources, may be able to respond more quickly and effectively than we can to new or changing opportunities, technologies, standards, or future customer requirements. With the adoption of new technologies, such as AI and machine learning, and new market entrants, we expect competition to intensify in the future. For example, our competitors may more successfully incorporate AI into their products, gain or leverage superior access to certain AI technologies and achieve higher market acceptance of their AI solutions. In addition, as we continue to expand our focus into new use cases or other product offerings beyond software development teams, we expect competition to increase. Pricing pressures and increased competition generally could result in reduced sales, reduced margins, losses, or the failure of our products to achieve or maintain more widespread market acceptance, any of which could harm our business, results of operations and financial condition.

 

Many of our current and potential competitors have greater resources than we do, with established marketing relationships, large enterprise sales forces, access to larger customer bases, pre-existing customer relationships and major distribution agreements with consultants, system integrators and resellers. Additionally, our potential customers, particularly large organizations, have elected and may in the future elect to develop or acquire their own internal collaboration and productivity software tools that would reduce or eliminate the demand for our solutions.

 

Our competitors have extensive experience in developing and protecting intellectual property and may develop and patent processes or products earlier than us, obtain regulatory approvals for competing products more rapidly than we are able to and develop more effective and less expensive products or technologies that would render our products non-competitive or obsolete. We may also face intellectual property litigation risks if competitors assert patents or other intellectual property rights that overlap with our technologies or product offerings.

 

Our products seek to serve multiple industries, and we are subject to competition from a wide and varied field of competitors, including classic compute-based solutions. Some competitors, particularly new and emerging companies with sizeable venture capital investment, could focus all their energy and resources on one product line or use case and, as a result, any one competitor could develop a more successful product or service in a particular market we serve which could decrease our market share and harm our brand recognition and results of operations. For all of these reasons and others we cannot anticipate today, we may not be able to compete successfully against our current and future competitors, which could harm our business, results of operations and financial condition.

 

The markets for our products and services in general are competitive. Competition in these markets may increase further if economic conditions or other circumstances cause customer bases and client spending to decrease and service providers to compete for fewer client resources. Our competitors may be able to make more attractive offers to our potential customers, or may be able to respond more quickly to new or emerging technologies or changes in user requirements. Increased competition could result in lower revenues and higher expenses, which would reduce our profitability.

 

22

 

 

An element of our business is currently dependent upon our relationship with our cloud providers. There are no assurances that we will be able to commercialize our business from our relationships with cloud providers.

 

We currently depend on the cloud-based quantum services of providers. The companies that own these public clouds have internal quantum computing efforts that are competitive to our technology. There is risk that one or more of these public cloud providers could use their respective control of their public clouds to embed innovations or privileged interoperating capabilities in competing products, bundle competing products, provide us with unfavorable pricing, leverage their public cloud customer relationships to exclude us from opportunities, and treat us and our end users differently with respect to terms and conditions or regulatory requirements than they would treat their similarly situated customers. Further, they have the resources to acquire or partner with existing and emerging providers of competing technology and thereby accelerate adoption of those competing technologies. All of the foregoing could make it difficult or impossible for us to provide products and services that compete favorably with those of the public cloud providers. Any material change in our contractual and other business relationships with our public cloud providers could result in harm to our brand and reputation and reduced use of our systems, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

Our business relies on the ability of Triple Alpha, or any other platform we create, to be portable and effective across different quantum computing hardware platforms (e.g., superconducting, trapped ion, etc.). We will also need to adapt and respond effectively to rapidly changing technology, evolving industry standards, changing regulations, or changing customer needs, requirements or preferences, to prevent our solutions from becoming less competitive. If we are unable to develop or maintain the necessary integrations, if quantum hardware providers prefer to offer their own proprietary software infrastructure, and if our products and services become less competitive, our ability to commercialize our products will be limited and our business, financial condition and results of operations will be harmed.

 

Our business model assumes that our software, Triple Alpha, or any other platform we create, can be a compelling and universal tool, effective across a variety of quantum computing hardware platforms. The introduction of new technologies will continue to have a significant effect on competitive conditions to which we are subject. In order to continue to provide value for our future customers, we must offer innovative solutions that allow our future customers to develop and operate quantum software code and applications. Certain technologies and industry developments may negatively impact our ability to compete within certain industry segments. In the event our competitors develop software ecosystems that are closed or limit the interoperability of our solutions, we will be less competitive and less attractive to prospective customers.

 

Our success is dependent on our ability to develop and maintain the necessary integrations for each of these diverse platforms. Quantum hardware is in its early stages and is not standardized. The underlying architecture and control systems for a superconducting quantum computer are fundamentally different from those of a trapped ion machine. Therefore, to be truly “platform-agnostic,” we must dedicate resources to building and constantly updating distinct software interfaces for each major hardware type. If we fail to keep up with the rapid pace of hardware development, our software could become obsolete on a particular platform, effectively locking our products and services out of a portion of the market. While we are actively engaged in collaborations with multiple leading quantum hardware providers and are developing a modular software architecture designed to adapt quickly to new hardware platforms as they emerge, there can be no assurance that these relationships will result in our ability to adapt quickly to any potential hardware changes.

 

To keep pace with technological and competitive developments, we have in the past invested and may continue to invest in complementary businesses, technologies, products, services and other assets that expand the products and services that we can offer prospective customers. We may make these investments without being certain that they will result in products or enhancements that will be accepted by prospective customers or that will achieve market acceptance. If we are unable to successfully enhance our products and services to meet evolving customer requirements, increase adoption and use cases of our solution and develop new services and solutions, then our business, financial condition and results of operations would be adversely affected.

 

Additionally, quantum hardware providers may choose to build and promote their own proprietary software infrastructure. Many hardware manufacturers already offer their own tools and software development kits (SDKs) that are optimized for their specific machines. We do not control the development of such technologies, and so it may be possible in the future that the components of the underlying technologies that interface with or are built into our solution develop in ways that are not beneficial to our growth and technological capabilities. If these providers create “walled gardens” around their hardware, and incentivize their customers to use their in-house software, our business could be materially and adversely harmed. Our ability to commercialize Triple Alpha, or any other platform we create, would be severely limited if we are unable to secure partnerships or if the market develops a preference for single-vendor solutions. This could significantly harm our business, financial condition and results of operations. While we have taken steps to mitigate the risks that proprietary software infrastructure may pose to our business, there is no guarantee our efforts will be successful. Furthermore, if these technologies do not continue to be improved or are replaced with alternative technologies that we do not effectively adapt to, our ability to innovate may be diminished and our market appeal and value to customers may be harmed. 

 

23

 

 

We rely on a limited number of suppliers for the design and manufacturing of the quantum computing equipment that we use to provide our services. Supply chain disruptions or other restrictions on our access to our suppliers could delay our ability to deploy such equipment and could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position and results of operations.

 

We rely on a limited number of suppliers for the design and manufacturing of the quantum computing equipment that we use to provide our services. We generally purchase these components on a purchase order basis, and do not have long-term contracts guaranteeing supply. Our reliance on these suppliers exposes us to risks, including reduced control over development costs and constraints based on the future availability, terms and pricing of these components. If we experience disruption or delay from our suppliers, we may not be able to obtain supplies or components from alternative suppliers on a timely basis or on terms that are favorable to us, if at all. The technology industry has experienced widespread component shortages and delivery delays, including as a result of geopolitical tensions, changes in import and export controls, public health crises and natural disasters. While we have taken steps to mitigate our supply chain risk, supply chain disruptions and delays could nevertheless adversely impact our operations by resulting in increased operating costs.

 

We operate our own quantum computer within our hardware testbed, and intend to acquire a second quantum computer. There are significant technological, operational and financial risks associated with developing, building and maintaining a functional quantum computer. If we fail to maintain an operational quantum computer, or if we fail to achieve competitive performance metrics, we may incur substantial costs and damage our reputation, which would negatively impact our business.

 

We currently own and operate a superconducting quantum computer. We plan to make this fully operational system available to Triple Alpha users in the first half of 2026. With this system, we expect that we will be able to more efficiently integrate and test our software infrastructure with quantum processing units and control systems. We also plan to acquire a second quantum computer — a trapped ion system — by 2027, though there can be no assurance that we will do so. Through ownership and operation of this quantum-advantage capable system, we aim to enable internal and external Triple Alpha users to test algorithms and develop applications with the intention of achieving quantum advantage. We expect that these systems will help broaden and deepen Triple Alpha’s capabilities over time and support our goal of creating hardware-agnostic software development tools that are deeply optimized for the physical realities of quantum processors. In addition to maintenance costs on our current quantum computer, the acquisition of a second computer will require material additional capital outlay. Furthermore, since quantum computing is in the early stages of development, we may be required to update these systems to ensure that they remain state of the art. These updates could necessitate incremental further capital outlay. If the anticipated advantages of owning our own hardware are not realized and do not outweigh these capital outlays, our business, financial results, and growth prospects could be adversely affected.

 

The development, installation and maintenance of our quantum computers have been and will continue to be resource intensive and could result in a reduction in both human and financial capital that could have been directed to further our other research and development focuses. While we believe that operating our own quantum computers gives us strategic and competitive advantages, there is no guarantee that any advantage we do gain will be greater than our expenditures.

 

Specifically, building and operating our quantum computers, even on a testbed scale, has been and will continue to be an extremely difficult and capital-intensive endeavor. We have collaborated with a number of premier quantum components suppliers for our first system; however, the path to consistent functionality of our quantum computers inevitably contains technical challenges, including scaling qubits while maintaining coherence, managing complex wiring systems and operating specialized cryogenic refrigeration units. These challenges could cause substantial delays beyond our committed timelines or result in a system that fails to achieve competitive performance metrics.

 

24

 

 

Additionally, as we have historically focused on software, we do not have the same level of in-house expertise in quantum hardware design, manufacturing and maintenance as our hardware-focused competitors. Consequently, this could lead to unforeseen operational challenges, increased costs and a greater reliance on our third-party partners.

 

Finally, any significant outages in the operation of our testbed, or a failure to demonstrate its functionality and performance, would not only result in substantial and unrecoverable costs but could also seriously damage our reputation as a leader in the quantum software space. Our ability to attract customers, partners and investors is dependent on a perception of our ability to bridge the gap between software and hardware. Any failure in this regard could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Furthermore, there is no guarantee we will be successful installing, maintaining and operating additional quantum computers at a cost comparable to our existing equipment. As quantum computer technology advances, and as we continue to seek ever more sophisticated quantum computer hardware, the cost associated with acquiring components may greatly increase.

 

We could suffer disruptions, outages, defects and other performance and quality problems with our quantum software development tools and services, or with the public cloud, data centers and internet infrastructure on which we rely. This could harm our reputation or subject us to significant liability and adversely affect our business, financial condition and operating results.

 

Our business depends on our quantum software development tools and services being available. We have experienced and may in the future experience, disruptions, outages, defects and other performance and quality problems with our systems. We have also experienced and may in the future experience, disruptions, outages, defects and other performance and quality problems with the public cloud and internet infrastructure on which our systems rely. These problems can be caused by a variety of factors, including failed introductions of new functionality, vulnerabilities and defects in proprietary and open-source software, hardware components, human error or misconduct, capacity constraints, design limitations, or denial of service attacks or other security-related incidents. We do not have a contractual right with our public cloud providers that compensates us for any losses due to availability interruptions in the public cloud.

 

Any disruptions, outages, defects and other performance and quality problems with our quantum software development tools and services or with the public cloud and internet infrastructure on which we rely, could result in reduced use of our systems, increased expenses, including service credit obligations, and harm to our brand and reputation, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

We are highly dependent on Joseph Fitzsimons and Si-Hui Tan, and on our ability to attract and retain senior executive leadership and key employees, such as quantum physicists, software engineers and other key technical employees, who are critical to our success. If we fail to retain talented, highly qualified senior management, engineers and other key employees or attract them when needed, such a failure could negatively impact our business.

 

Our future success depends on the continuing efforts of Joseph Fitzsimons and Si-Hui Tan. We rely on the knowledge and experience that Dr. Fitzsimons and Dr. Tan provide as it relates to quantum computing technology. They are the cornerstone of our research and development efforts, which have been instrumental in our ability to develop our products and services. The market for such positions is intensely competitive, which could increase our costs to attract and retain talented individuals. In the event Dr. Fitzsimons or Dr. Tan were to become unavailable for any reason, including injury, illness or death, or if they were to leave Horizon or choose other ventures over Horizon, there could be a material adverse impact on our operations. Effective succession planning is also important to our long-term success and may cause disruption to our business due to, among other things, diverting management’s attention away from the operations of the business or causing a deterioration in morale. Failure to ensure effective transfer of knowledge and smooth transitions involving Dr. Fitzsimons or Dr. Tan, or any of our other key employees, could hinder our strategic planning and execution.

 

25

 

 

Our future success also depends on our continuing ability to attract, develop, motivate and retain highly qualified and skilled employees, such as quantum physicists and software engineers. The market for highly skilled workers and leaders in the quantum computing industry is extremely competitive. In particular, hiring qualified personnel specializing in supply chain management, engineering and sales, as well as other technical staff and research and development personnel is critical to our business and the development of our quantum computing software systems. Some of these professionals are hard to find and we may encounter significant competition in our efforts to hire them. Many of the other companies with which we compete for qualified personnel have greater financial and other resources than we do. And, as we build our brand and become more well-known, there is an increased risk that competitors or other companies may seek to hire our personnel. Our employees are generally “at will” employees and may leave our employment at any time. The loss of the services provided by these individuals will have an adverse impact on the achievement of our business plans.

 

The effective operation of our supply chain, including the acquisition of critical components and materials, the development and commercialization of our quantum computing technologies and the effective operation of our managerial and operating systems all depend upon our ability to attract, train and retain qualified personnel in the aforementioned specialties.

 

Additionally, changes in immigration and work permit laws and regulations, the administration, or interpretation of such laws and regulations could impair our ability to attract and retain highly qualified employees. If we cannot attract, train and retain qualified personnel in this competitive environment, we may experience delays in the development of our quantum computing technologies and otherwise be unable to develop and grow our business as expected, or even at all.

 

Our future growth and success depends on our ability to sell effectively to government entities and large enterprises.

 

Our potential customers are expected to include government agencies and large enterprises. Therefore, our future success will depend on our ability to effectively sell our products to such customers. Sales to these end-customers involve risks that may not be present (or that are present to a lesser extent) with sales to non-governmental agencies or smaller customers. These risks include, but are not limited to, (i) increased purchasing power and leverage held by such customers in negotiating contractual arrangements with us and (ii) longer sales cycles and the associated risk that substantial time and resources may be spent on a potential end-customer that elects not to purchase our solutions. Sales to government agencies are often fixed fee development contracts, which involve additional risks.

 

In addition, government contracts generally include the ability of government agencies to terminate early which, if exercised, would result in a lower contract value and lower than anticipated revenues generated by such arrangements.

 

Government agencies and large organizations often undertake a significant evaluation process that results in a lengthy sales cycle. Our potential future contracts with government agencies are expected to be structured in phases, with each phase subject to satisfaction of certain conditions. As a result, the actual scope of work performed pursuant to any such contracts, in addition to related contract revenue, could be less than total contract value. In addition, product purchases by such organizations are frequently subject to budget constraints, multiple approvals and unanticipated administrative, processing and other delays. Finally, these organizations typically have longer implementation cycles, require greater product functionality and scalability, require a broader range of services, demand that vendors take on a larger share of risks, require acceptance provisions that can lead to a delay in revenue recognition and expect greater payment flexibility. All of these factors can add further risk to business conducted with these potential customers and could lead to lower revenue results than originally anticipated.

 

Accordingly, our business, financial condition, results of operations and growth prospects may be adversely affected by certain events or activities, including, but not limited to:

 

  changes in government fiscal or procurement policies, or decreases in government funding available for procurement of goods and services;

 

  changes in government programs or applicable requirements;

 

  changes in the political environment, including before or after a change to the leadership within the government administration and any resulting uncertainty or changes in policy or priorities and resultant funding;

 

26

 

 

  changes in the government’s attitude towards us as a company or our technology;

 

  appeals, disputes, or litigation relating to government procurement, including but not limited to bid protests by unsuccessful bidders on potential or actual awards of contracts to us or our partners by the government;

 

  the adoption of new laws or regulations or changes to existing laws or regulations;

 

  budgetary constraints, including automatic reductions as a result of “sequestration,” operating under continuing resolutions, disruptions from government shutdowns, or similar measures and constraints imposed by any lapses in appropriations for the federal government or certain of its departments and agencies;

 

  influence by, or competition from, third parties with respect to pending, new, or existing contracts with government customers;

 

  potential delays or changes in the government appropriations or procurement processes, including as a result of events such as war, incidents of terrorism, natural disasters and public health concerns; and

 

  increased or unexpected costs or delays caused by other factors outside of our control.

 

Any such event or activity, among others, could cause governments and governmental agencies to delay or refrain from entering into contracts with us and/or purchasing our computers in the future, reduce the size or timing of payment with respect to our services to or purchases from new government customers, or otherwise have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and growth prospects.

 

If we are unable to maintain successful relationships with quantum hardware vendors, our ability to market, sell and distribute our quantum software tools will be limited, and our business, financial position and results of operations will be harmed.

 

Horizon expects collaborations with leading hardware companies, control systems manufacturers, and software to act as a powerful distribution channel because these providers could embed Horizon software within their ecosystems, providing direct access to their customers. Our ability to achieve revenue growth in the future will depend in part on our success in maintaining successful relationships with quantum hardware vendors and in training quantum hardware vendors to independently sell and deploy our quantum software development tools. If we fail to effectively manage such relationships, our ability to sell our products and services, and results of operations will be harmed.

 

If our information technology systems or data, or those of third parties upon which we rely, are or were compromised, we could experience adverse consequences resulting from such compromise, including but not limited to regulatory investigations or actions; litigation; fines and penalties; disruptions of our business operations; reputational harm; loss of revenue or profits; loss of customers or sales; loss of intellectual property or other confidential business information; and other adverse consequences, which may adversely affect our business.

 

In the ordinary course of our business, we and the third parties upon which we rely, collect, receive, store, process, generate, use, transfer, disclose, make accessible, protect, secure, dispose of, transmit and share (collectively, process), proprietary, confidential and sensitive data, including personal data, intellectual property, controlled unclassified information and trade secrets (collectively, sensitive information). Cybersecurity incidents such as malicious internet-based activity, online and offline fraud, denial-of-service attacks, ransomware attacks, business email compromises, computer malware, viruses and social engineering (including through deep fakes or other attacks using artificial intelligence which may be increasingly more difficult to identify as fake and phishing attacks) as well as natural disasters and other similar activities threaten the confidentiality, integrity and availability of our sensitive information and information technology systems and those of the third parties upon which we rely.

Such threats are prevalent in the technology industry and our prospective customers’ industries and continue to rise, are increasingly difficult to detect, and come from a variety of sources, including traditional computer “hackers,” threat actors, “hacktivists,” organized criminal threat actors, personnel (such as through theft or misuse), sophisticated nation states and nation-state-supported actors. The techniques may be used to sabotage or to obtain unauthorized access to our platform, systems, networks, or physical facilities where our research and development facilities and instruments are stored, and we may be unable to implement adequate preventative measures or stop cybersecurity incidents from occurring or expanding in scope. U.S. law enforcement agencies have indicated that quantum computing technology is of particular interest to certain malicious cyber threat actors, including nation-state-supported actors. In addition, our cybersecurity risk could be increased as a result of the military conflict in Iran as well as the ongoing military conflict between Russia and Ukraine and the related sanctions imposed against Russia.

 

During times of war and other major conflicts, we, and the third parties upon which we rely, may be vulnerable to a heightened risk of cybersecurity incidents, including retaliatory cyber-attacks, that could materially disrupt our systems and operations, our third-party information systems, supply chain and ability to produce, sell and distribute our products and services. We and the third parties upon which we rely are subject to a variety of evolving threats, including but not limited to social-engineering attacks (including through deep fakes, which may be increasingly more difficult to identify as fake and phishing attacks), malicious code (such as viruses and worms), malware (including as a result of advanced persistent threat intrusions), denial-of-service attacks (such as credential stuffing), credential harvesting, personnel misconduct or error, ransomware attacks, supply-chain attacks, software bugs, server malfunctions, software or hardware failures, loss of data or other information technology assets, adware, telecommunications failures, earthquakes, fires, floods and other similar threats.

 

In particular, severe ransomware attacks are becoming increasingly prevalent and can lead to significant interruptions in our operations, loss of sensitive data and income, reputational harm and diversion of funds. Extortion payments may alleviate the negative impact of a ransomware attack, but we may be unwilling or unable to make such payments due to, for example, applicable laws or regulations prohibiting such payments.

 

Remote work has become more common and has increased risks to our information technology systems and data, as more of our employees utilize network connections, computers and devices outside our premises or network, including working at home, while in transit and in public locations. In addition, future or past business transactions (such as acquisitions or integrations) could expose us to additional cybersecurity risks and vulnerabilities, as our systems could be negatively affected by vulnerabilities present in acquired or integrated entities’ systems and technologies. Furthermore, we may discover security issues that were not found during due diligence of such acquired or integrated entities, and it may be difficult to integrate companies into our information technology environment and security program.

 

We rely on third-party service providers and technologies to operate critical business systems to process sensitive information in a variety of contexts. Our platform is built to be accessed through third-party public cloud providers such as AWS. These providers may also experience cybersecurity incidents and attacks to their products which may impact our systems. Cybersecurity incidents may also result from non-technical means, such as actions by an employee with access to our systems. Our ability to monitor these third parties’ information security practices is limited, and these third parties may not have adequate information security measures in place. If our third-party service providers experience a cybersecurity incident or other interruption, we could experience adverse consequences. While we may be entitled to damages if our third-party service providers fail to satisfy their privacy or security-related obligations to us, any award may be insufficient to cover our damages, or we may be unable to recover such award.

 

We may expend significant resources or modify our business activities to try to protect against security incidents. Certain data privacy and security obligations may require us to implement and maintain specific security measures to protect our information technology systems and sensitive information. While we and our third-party cloud providers have implemented security measures designed to protect against cybersecurity incidents, there can be no assurance that these measures will be effective and these measures could fail or may be insufficient. Although we take steps designed to detect, mitigate and remediate vulnerabilities in our information systems (such as our hardware and/or software, including that of third parties upon which we rely), we may not be able to detect and remediate all vulnerabilities on a timely basis because the threats and techniques used to exploit the vulnerability change frequently and are often sophisticated in nature. Therefore, such vulnerabilities could be exploited but may not be detected until after a cybersecurity incident has occurred.

 

28

 

 

In addition, applicable data privacy and security obligations may require us to notify relevant stakeholders, including affected individuals, customers, regulators and investors of cybersecurity incidents. Such disclosures are costly, and the disclosure or the failure to comply with such requirements could lead to adverse consequences. Actual or perceived cybersecurity incidents affecting sensitive information about Horizon, our partners, our potential customers or third parties could expose us and the parties affected to a risk of loss or misuse of this information, resulting in litigation and potential liability, paying damages, regulatory inquiries or actions, damage to our brand and reputation or other harm to our business. Our efforts to prevent and overcome these challenges could increase our expenses and may not be successful. If we fail to detect or remediate a cybersecurity incident in a timely manner, or it otherwise affects our potential customers or impacts our ability to operate our platform, we may experience adverse consequences, such as government enforcement actions (for example, investigations, fines, penalties, audits and inspections); additional reporting requirements and/or oversight; restrictions on processing sensitive information (including personal data); litigation (including class claims); indemnification obligations; negative publicity; material damage to our reputation; monetary fund diversions; diversions of management attention; interruptions in our operations (including availability of data); financial loss; and other similar harms.

 

Cybersecurity incidents and attendant consequences may cause future customers to stop using our services, deter new customers from using our services and negatively impact our ability to grow and operate our business. Cybersecurity incidents also may result in current or future competitors obtaining sensitive information, including proprietary information.

 

Our contracts may not contain limitations of liability, and even where they do, there can be no assurance that limitations of liability in our contracts are sufficient to protect us from liabilities, damages, or claims related to our data privacy and security obligations. We cannot be sure that our insurance coverage will be adequate or sufficient to protect us from or to mitigate liabilities arising out of our privacy and security practices, that such coverage will continue to be available on commercially reasonable terms or at all, or that such coverage will pay future claims.

 

In addition to experiencing a cybersecurity incident, third parties may gather, collect, or infer sensitive information about us from public sources, data brokers, or other means that reveal competitively sensitive details about our organization and could be used to undermine our competitive advantage or market position.

 

Unfavorable conditions in our industry, the global economy, or other catastrophic events may disrupt our business, could limit our ability to grow and negatively affect our results of operations.

 

Our results of operations may vary based on the impact of changes in our industry or the global economy on us or our potential customers. The global economy, including credit and financial markets, has experienced extreme volatility and disruptions, including severely diminished liquidity and credit availability, declines in customer confidence, declines in economic growth, increases in unemployment rates, increases in inflation rates, higher interest rates and uncertainty about economic stability. For example, the COVID-19 pandemic resulted in widespread unemployment, economic slowdown and extreme volatility in the capital markets and any future public health crises could result in similar impacts on the global economy. Similarly, geopolitical tensions in and around Ukraine, Israel, Iran and other areas of the world have created extreme volatility in the global capital markets and are expected to have further global economic consequences, including disruptions of the global supply chain and energy markets, and further acts of war, terror, or responses to each could result in similar or increased impacts on the global economy. Increased inflation rates can adversely affect us by increasing our costs, including labor and employee benefit costs. Employee salaries and benefits expenses have increased as a result of economic growth, increased demand for business services, increased competition for trained and talented employees, among other wage-inflationary pressures and we cannot assure you that they will not continue to rise. In addition, higher inflation also could increase our potential customers’ operating costs, which could result in reduced budgets for our potential customers and potentially less demand for our platform and the development of quantum technologies. Any significant increases in inflation and related increase in interest rates could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

 

29

 

 

Additionally, adverse changes in market conditions, a sustained decline in our stock price, negative changes to Horizon’s competitive position in the market, or lack of growth in demand for our products and services could result in our failure to meet our business plans. Depending on the nature of such changes relative to our assumptions, such adverse changes could be considered to be an impairment triggering event, impacting valuation assumptions relating to the recoverability of assets, and may result in impairment charges to our long-lived assets, other assets or investments, which would have a negative impact on our operating results and harm our business.

 

In addition, in challenging economic times, our potential future customers may experience cash flow problems and as a result may modify, delay or cancel plans to purchase our products and services. Additionally, if our future customers are not successful in generating sufficient revenue or are unable to secure financing, they may not be able to pay, or may delay payment of, accounts receivable due to us. Moreover, our key suppliers may reduce their output or become insolvent, thereby adversely impacting our ability to develop our products. Furthermore, uncertain economic conditions may make it more difficult for us to raise funds through borrowings or private or public sales of debt or equity securities. We cannot predict the timing, location, strength or duration of any economic slowdown, instability or recovery, generally or within any particular industry.

 

Furthermore, a disruption or failure of our systems or operations because of an earthquake, weather event, cyberattack, terrorist attack, pandemic, or other catastrophic event could cause delays in providing services or performing other critical functions, which could also delay commercial deals and the associated revenue recognition for those deals. A catastrophic event that results in the destruction or disruption of any of our critical business or IT systems, or the infrastructure or systems they rely on could harm our ability to conduct normal business operations.

 

Unstable market and economic conditions have had and may continue to have serious adverse consequences on our business, financial condition and share price.

 

At times in the past, the global economy, including credit and financial markets, has experienced extreme volatility and disruptions, including severely diminished liquidity and credit availability, declines in consumer confidence, declines in economic growth, increases in unemployment rates, increases in inflation rates, higher interest rates, bank failures and uncertainty about economic stability. Any volatility or disruptions in market and economic conditions may have adverse consequences on us or the third parties on whom we rely. If general economic conditions were to deteriorate or remain uncertain for an extended period, our liquidity may be harmed and the trading price of our Company Class A Shares and Company Public Warrants could decline.

 

If the equity and credit markets deteriorate, including as a result of political unrest or war, it may make any necessary financing more difficult to obtain in a timely manner or on favorable terms, more costly or more dilutive and we could be forced to delay, reduce or eliminate our research and development programs and other efforts. Increased inflation rates have and are expected to adversely affect us by increasing our costs, including labor, employee benefit costs and costs for equipment and system components associated with system development. In addition, higher inflation could also increase our future customers’ operating costs, which could result in reduced budgets for our future customers and potentially less demand for our systems. Any significant increases in inflation and related increase in interest rates could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

 

If in the future a financial institution in which we hold funds fails or is subject to significant adverse conditions in the financial or credit markets, we could be subject to a risk of loss of all or a portion of such uninsured funds or be subject to a delay in accessing all or a portion of such uninsured funds. Any such loss or lack of access to these funds could adversely impact our short-term liquidity and ability to meet our operating expense obligations. Further, these events may make financings more difficult to obtain, and additional financing might not be available on reasonable terms, if at all; difficulties obtaining financing could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, as well as our ability to continue to grow our operations.

 

30

 

 

If we are unable to maintain effective internal control over financial reporting in the future, investors may lose confidence in the accuracy and completeness of our financial reports and the market price of our Company Class A Shares could be negatively affected.

 

As a public company, we are required to maintain internal controls over financial reporting and to report any material weaknesses in such internal controls in our Annual Report on Form 20-F. We are required to furnish a report by management on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act in our Annual Report on Form 20-F. If we identify material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, if we are unable to comply with the requirements of Section 404 in a timely manner or assert that our internal control over financial reporting is effective, or if our independent registered public accounting firm is unable to express an opinion as to the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, investors may lose confidence in the accuracy and completeness of our financial reports and the market price of our Class A Shares could be negatively affected, and we could become subject to investigations by the stock exchange on which our securities are listed, the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) or other regulatory authorities, which could require additional financial and management resources.

 

If our estimates or judgments relating to our critical accounting policies prove to be incorrect or financial reporting standards or interpretations change, our results of operations could be adversely affected.

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in our consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. We will base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. The results of these estimates will form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets, liabilities and equity, and the amount of revenue and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. Significant assumptions and estimates used in preparing our consolidated financial statements will include those related to revenue recognition; allowance for credit losses; valuation of ordinary shares; carrying value and useful lives of long-lived assets; loss contingencies; and the provision for income taxes and related deferred taxes. Our results of operations may be adversely affected if our assumptions change or if actual circumstances differ from those in our assumptions, which could cause our results of operations to fall below the expectations of industry or financial analysts and investors, resulting in a decline in the market price of our Company shares.

 

Additionally, we will regularly monitor our compliance with applicable financial reporting standards and review new pronouncements and drafts thereof that are relevant to us. As a result of new standards, changes to existing standards and changes in their interpretation, we might be required to change our accounting policies, alter our operational policies and implement new or enhance existing systems so that they reflect new or amended financial reporting standards, or we may be required to restate our published financial statements. Such changes to existing standards or changes in their interpretation may have an adverse effect on our reputation, business, financial position and profit, or cause an adverse deviation from our revenue and operating profit target, which may negatively impact our financial results.

 

Our facilities or operations could be damaged or adversely affected as a result of prolonged power outages, natural disasters and other catastrophic events.

 

Our facilities or operations could be adversely affected by power outages as well as events outside of our control, such as natural disasters and other calamities. We cannot assure you that any backup systems will be adequate to protect us from the effects of fire, floods, typhoons, earthquakes, power loss resulting from such natural disasters, telecommunications failures, break-ins, war, riots, terrorist attacks or similar events. Any of the foregoing events may give rise to interruptions, breakdowns, system failures, technology platform failures or internet failures, which could cause delays in development and fabrication, the loss or corruption of data or malfunctions of software or hardware as well as adversely affect our ability to provide services. A significant power outage may disrupt our operations and could have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

 

31

 

 

Real or perceived errors, failures or bugs in our products and services could materially and adversely affect our operating results, financial condition and growth prospects.

 

The hardware and software underlying our platform and products is highly technical and complex. Our hardware and software have previously contained, and may now or in the future contain, undetected errors, bugs, or vulnerabilities. In addition, errors, failures and bugs may be contained in our software utilized in building and operating our products or may result from errors in the deployment or configuration of our platform and development tools. Some errors in our products may only be discovered after a product has been deployed or may never be generally known. In some instances, despite internal testing, we may not be able to identify the cause or causes of these problems or risks within an acceptable period of time. Any errors, bugs or vulnerabilities discovered in our products after it has been deployed, or never generally discovered, could result in interruptions in platform availability, product malfunctioning or data breaches. Since our potential customers may use our services for processes that are critical to their businesses, errors and defects, security vulnerability, service interruptions or software bugs in our platform could result in losses to our potential customers and thereby result in damage to our reputation, adverse effects upon potential customers and users, loss of such customers and relationships with third parties, significant expenditures of capital, a delay or loss in market acceptance, loss of revenue, or liability for damages. In addition, while we will include provisions in our future agreements with our future customers that attempt to limit our exposure to claims, such provisions may not be enforceable or adequate and may not otherwise protect us from liabilities or damages with respect to any particular claim. Even if not successful, a claim brought against us by any of our future customers would likely be time-consuming and costly to defend and could seriously damage our reputation and brand, making it harder for us to sell our solutions and retain our future customers.

 

If we engage in acquisitions, divestitures, strategic investments, or strategic partnerships and fail to achieve favorable results, our business, financial condition and operating results could be harmed.

 

We may in the future make acquisitions, divestitures, or certain investments. Any transactions that we enter into could be material to our financial condition and results of operations. The process of acquiring and integrating another company or technology could create unforeseen operating difficulties and expenditures. Acquisitions and investments involve a number of risks, such as:

 

  use of resources that are needed in other areas of our business;

 

  in the case of an acquisition, implementation or remediation of controls, procedures and policies of the acquired company;

 

  in the case of an acquisition, difficulty integrating the accounting systems and operations of the acquired company, including potential risks to our corporate culture;

 

  in the case of an acquisition, coordination of product, engineering and selling and marketing functions, including difficulties and additional expenses associated with supporting legacy services and products and hosting infrastructure of the acquired company, as applicable, difficulties associated with supporting new products or services, difficulty converting the customers of the acquired company onto our platform and difficulties associated with contract terms, including disparities in the revenues, licensing, support or professional services model of the acquired company;

 

  in the case of an acquisition, retention and integration of employees from the acquired company;

 

  in the case of an acquisition, past intellectual property infringement or data security issues arising from the acquired company;

 

  unforeseen costs or liabilities;

 

  adverse effects on our then-existing business relationships with customers as a result of the acquisition or investment;

 

  the possibility of adverse tax consequences;

 

  litigation or other claims arising in connection with the acquired company or investment; and

 

  in the case of foreign acquisitions, the need to integrate operations across different cultures and languages and to address the particular economic, currency, political and regulatory risks associated with specific countries.

 

32

 

 

In addition, a significant portion of the purchase price of companies we acquire may be allocated to acquired goodwill and other intangible assets, which must be assessed for impairment at least annually. In the future, if our acquisitions do not yield expected returns, we may be required to take charges to our operating results based on this impairment assessment process, which could adversely affect our results of operations. Acquisitions and investments may also result in dilutive issuances of equity securities, which could adversely affect our share price, or result in issuances of securities with superior rights and preferences to our common shares or the incurrence of debt with restrictive covenants that limit our future uses of capital in pursuit of business opportunities.

 

Any failure to offer high-quality customer support could harm our relationships with our future customers and our business, results of operations and financial condition.

 

In deploying and using our products, our future customers will depend on our product support teams to resolve complex technical and operational issues. We may be unable to respond quickly enough to accommodate short-term increases in future customer demand for product support. We also may be unable to modify the nature, scope and delivery of our product support to compete with changes in product support services provided by our competitors. Increased future customer demand for product support, without corresponding revenue, could increase costs and harm our results of operations. In addition, as we continue to grow our operations, we need to be able to provide efficient product support that meets our future customers’ needs globally at scale. In order to meet these needs, we will rely on third-party vendors to fulfill requests about third-party apps and self-service product support to resolve common or frequently asked questions for Horizon products and services, which supplement our customer support teams. If we are unable to provide efficient product support globally at scale, including through the use of third-party vendors and self-service support, our ability to grow our operations could be harmed and we may need to hire additional support personnel, which could harm our results of operations. Our sales will be highly dependent on our business reputation and on positive recommendations from our future customers. Any failure to maintain high-quality product support, or a market perception that we do not maintain high-quality product support, could harm our reputation, our ability to sell our products to prospective customers, and our business, results of operations and financial condition.

 

We may not be able to scale and adapt our existing technology in a timely and cost-effective manner to meet our future customers’ performance and other requirements.

 

Our future growth is dependent upon our ability to continue to meet the needs of new customers and the expanding needs of such future customers as their use of our solutions grow. As our future customers gain more experience with our solutions, the number of endpoints and events, the amount of data transferred, processed and stored by us, the number of locations where our platform and services are being accessed may, in the future, expand rapidly. In order to meet the performance and other requirements of our future customers, we intend to continue to make significant investments to increase capacity and to develop and implement new technologies in our products and services. These technologies include hardware and infrastructure, cloud provisioning, software architecture and the team’s capacity to triage and provide direct support. We may not be successful in developing or implementing these technologies. In addition, as our business grows, we must continue to improve and expand our information technology infrastructure. It takes a significant amount of time to plan, develop and test improvements to our technologies and infrastructure, and we may not be able to accurately forecast demand or predict the results we will realize from such improvements. We rely on external ecosystems, such as operating systems, to operate and make our products and services available to future customers. If we are unable to adapt to product or policy changes in such ecosystems, or if we do not effectively operate with such ecosystems, demand for and availability of our products or services could decline. To the extent that we do not effectively scale our operations and infrastructure to meet the needs of our business, our future customer base and to maintain performance as our future customers expand their use of our solutions, we may not be able to grow as quickly as we anticipate, our future customers may reduce or cancel use of our solutions and we may be unable to compete as effectively and our business and results of operations may be harmed.

 

Furthermore, ongoing improvements to our infrastructure may be more expensive than we anticipate, and may not yield the expected savings in operating costs or the expected performance benefits. In addition, we may be required to re-invest any cost savings achieved from prior cloud infrastructure improvements in future infrastructure projects to maintain the levels of service required by our future customers. We may not be able to maintain or achieve cost savings from our investments, which could harm our financial results.

 

33

 

 

We utilize AI, which could expose us to liability or adversely affect our business.

 

We incorporate novel uses of AI technologies, including generative AI, into our operations, such as our internal software applications and our research and development activities, and may make further use of AI in our products in the future. AI is complex and rapidly evolving, and we face significant competition from other companies who may incorporate AI into their products more quickly or more successfully than us, as well as an evolving regulatory landscape. The introduction of AI, and particularly generative AI, a relatively new and emerging technology in the early stages of commercial use, into new or existing products and our operations, may result in new or enhanced governmental or regulatory scrutiny, litigation, confidentiality, ethical concerns, or other complications that could adversely affect our business, reputation, or financial results. For example, generative AI has been known to produce a false or “hallucinatory” inferences or output, and certain generative AI uses machine learning and predictive analytics, which may be flawed, insufficient, of poor quality, reflect unwanted forms of bias, or contain other errors or inadequacies, any of which may not be easily detectable. Our future customers or others may rely on or use this flawed content to their detriment, which may expose us to brand or reputational harm, competitive harm, and/or legal liability. In addition, the use of AI by other companies has resulted in, and may in the future result in, data breaches and cybersecurity incidents that implicate the personal information of AI users. Further, the use of AI presents emerging ethical and social issues, and if we enable or offer solutions that draw scrutiny or controversy due to their perceived or actual impact on future customers or on society as a whole, we may experience brand or reputational harm, competitive harm and/or legal liability.

 

The technologies underlying AI and its uses are subject to a variety of laws and regulations, including intellectual property, privacy, data protection, cybersecurity, consumer protection, competition, equal opportunity laws and regulations, and are expected to be subject to new laws and regulations or new applications of existing laws and regulations. AI is the subject of ongoing review by various U.S. governmental and regulatory agencies, and various U.S. states and other jurisdictions are applying, or are considering applying, their cybersecurity and data protection laws to AI or are considering general legal frameworks for AI. For example, in Europe, the EU’s AI Act was published in the Official Journal of the EU on July 12, 2024 and entered into force on August 1, 2024. The AI Act establishes, among other things, a risk-based governance framework for regulating AI systems in the EU by categorizing AI systems, based on the risks associated with such AI systems’ intended purposes, as creating unacceptable or high risks, with all other AI systems being considered low risk. This regulatory framework is expected to have a material impact on the way AI is regulated in the EU and beyond. As further indication of a trend in increased regulatory and legislative oversight of the use and development of AI, in 2024, California enacted a range of laws regulating the use and development of AI, which generally relate to transparency, privacy and fairness, among other concerns. On the other hand, Singapore has not enacted omnibus AI legislation but regulatory authorities have issued non-binding guidelines and best practices for organizations using AI. This includes the Model AI Governance Framework for Generative AI published on May 30, 2024, which seeks to address generative AI concerns while continuing to facilitate innovation in Singapore.

 

As a fast-evolving and complicated technology subject to significant government attention, AI-related legislation and regulation may be developed and apply to AI in unexpected ways. We may not be able to anticipate how to respond to or comply with these rapidly evolving frameworks, and we may need to expend resources to adjust our offerings in certain jurisdictions if the legal frameworks are inconsistent across jurisdictions. The cost to comply with such frameworks could be significant and may increase our operating expenses. Additionally, if we do not have sufficient rights to use the data or other material or content on which our AI technologies rely, we may incur liability through the violation of applicable laws or regulations, third-party intellectual property, privacy or other rights, or contracts to which we are a party. Further, any content or other output created by our use of AI-powered tools may not be subject to copyright protection, which may adversely affect our ability to enforce our intellectual property rights. Because AI technology itself is highly complex and rapidly developing, it is not possible to predict all of the legal, operational or technological risks that may arise relating to the use of AI.

Catastrophic events may disrupt our business.

 

Natural disasters, pandemics and other public health emergencies, geopolitical conflicts, social or political unrest, or other catastrophic events may cause damage or disruption to our operations, international commerce and the global economy, and thus could harm our business. We have employees and operations in Singapore and in Dublin, Ireland. Dublin, as well as many other portions of Ireland, experiences coastal and river flooding that could impact our employees. In the event of a major earthquake, hurricane, typhoon or catastrophic event such as fire, power loss, telecommunications failure, cyber-attack, war or terrorist attack in any of the regions or localities in which we operate, we may be unable to continue our operations and may endure system interruptions, reputational harm, delays in our application development, lengthy interruptions in our product availability, breaches of data security and loss of critical data, all of which could harm our business, results of operations and financial condition. In the event of a power outage, the quantum computer we operate could be damaged. Superconducting quantum processors, like the one we are in the process of building in our testbed, must be maintained at ultra-low temperatures close to absolute zero to function. A power outage would cause a failure of the cryogenic cooling system, leading to a rise in temperature. This could cause significant physical damage to the delicate quantum processor and the surrounding components within the cryostat. Bringing the system back online is a deliberate operation that takes time and must follow a careful sequence of steps in order to re-cool and re-calibrate the system, which could cause a significant interruption to our research and development and our ability to validate our software solutions.

 

Additionally, we rely on our network and suppliers of third-party infrastructure and applications, internal technology systems and our websites for our development, marketing, internal controls, operational support, hosted services and sales activities. If these systems were to fail or be negatively impacted as a result of a malfunction, natural disaster, disease or pandemic, or catastrophic event, our ability to conduct normal business operations and deliver products to our future customers could be impaired.

 

As we grow our business, the need for business continuity planning and disaster recovery plans will grow in significance. If we are unable to develop adequate plans to ensure that our business functions continue to operate during and after a disaster, disease or pandemic, or catastrophic event, or if we are unable to successfully execute on those plans, our business and reputation could be harmed.

 

Our operations, business, and future customers could be adversely affected by climate change.

 

There are increasing and rapidly evolving concerns over the risks of climate change and related environmental sustainability matters. Our operations, business, and future customers could be adversely affected by climate change. The physical risks of climate change include rising average global temperatures, rising sea levels and an increase in the frequency and severity of extreme weather events and natural disasters. Such events and disasters could disrupt our operations or the operations of future customers or third parties on which we rely and could result in market volatility. Additionally, we may face risks related to the transition to a low-carbon economy. We could experience increased expenses resulting from strategic planning, litigation and changes to our technology, operations, products and services, access to energy and water, as well as reputational harm as a result of negative public sentiment, regulatory scrutiny and reduced stakeholder confidence, due to our response to climate change or real or perceived vulnerability to climate change-related risks. Changes in consumer preferences, our need to travel internationally and legal requirements could increase expenses or otherwise adversely impact our business, future customers and partners. 

 

Our commercial and business operations are international in nature, subjecting us to additional risks and costs, including the ability to engage with partners in new geographies, exposure to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations, that can adversely affect our business, financial condition, revenues, results of operations or cash flows.

 

As we begin to generate sales and revenue, we may derive a significant portion of revenue from future international customers. There are a variety of risks and costs associated with international sales and operations, which may include making additional investments prior to the proven adoption of our solutions, the cost of conducting our business internationally and hiring and training international employees and the costs associated with complying with local law. Furthermore, we cannot predict the rate at which our platform and solutions will be accepted in international markets by potential customers.

 

We believe our ability to attract future customers to purchase our software development tools or services is directly correlated to the level of engagement we obtain with future customers. To the extent we are unable to effectively engage with future customers based outside of Singapore and Ireland due to our limited international footprint, we may be unable to effectively grow in international markets.

 

35

 

 

As we continue to develop and commercialize our technology, we may need to make additional investments in international markets, and the cost of complying with the local laws and regulations of each country could be significant. Furthermore, the quantum computing industry is still in its early stages of development. We cannot predict the rate at which our platform and solutions will be adopted in international markets, and our business strategy depends on the continued growth and maturity of the global quantum ecosystem.

 

Given our international presence, we are exposed to the effects of fluctuations in currency exchange rates. While we have primarily transacted in Singapore dollars, we may in the future generate revenues denominated in other currencies. Additionally, fluctuations in the value of the Singapore dollar and foreign currencies may make our products and services more expensive for future customers whose operations are denominated in other currencies, which could harm our business. Additionally, we incur expenses for employee compensation and other operating expenses at our facilities in their respective local currency for such locations. Fluctuations in the exchange rates between the Singapore dollar and other currencies could result in an increase to the Singapore dollar equivalent of such expenses. These fluctuations could cause our results of operations to differ from our expectations or the expectations of our investors. Additionally, such currency exchange rate fluctuations could make it more difficult to detect underlying trends in our business and results of operations.

 

Our international operations may subject us to greater than anticipated tax liabilities. Future changes in tax laws could have a material adverse effect on our business, cash flow, results of operations or financial conditions.

 

The amount of taxes we may pay in different jurisdictions depends on the application of the tax laws of various jurisdictions, to our international business activities, changes in tax rates, new or revised tax laws or interpretations of existing tax laws and policies, and our ability to operate our business in a manner consistent with our corporate structure and intercompany arrangements. The taxing authorities of the jurisdictions in which we operate may challenge our methodologies for pricing intercompany transactions pursuant to any future intercompany arrangement or disagree with our determinations as to the income and expenses attributable to specific jurisdictions. If such a challenge or disagreement were to occur, and our position was not sustained, we could be required to pay additional taxes, interest and penalties, which could result in one-time tax charges, higher effective tax rates, reduced cash flows, and lower overall profitability of our operations. Our consolidated financial statements could fail to reflect adequate reserves to cover such a contingency. Similarly, a taxing authority could assert that we are subject to tax in a jurisdiction where we believe we have not established a taxable connection, often referred to as a “permanent establishment” under international tax treaties, and such an assertion, if successful, could increase our expected tax liability in one or more jurisdictions.

 

Furthermore, new income, sales, use or other tax laws, statutes, rules, regulation or ordinances could be enacted at any time, or interpreted, changed, modified or applied adversely to us, any of which could adversely affect our business, prospects, financial performance and operating results. In particular, there has been a recent change where the Multinational Enterprise (Minimum Tax) Act 2024 implements the Global Anti-Base Erosion Model Rules (Pillar Two) rules. We are currently unable to predict whether such changes will occur and, if so, the ultimate impact on our business. To the extent that such changes have a negative impact on us, including as a result of related uncertainty, these changes may materially and adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results.

 

Risks Related to Litigation and Government Regulation

 

We are required to comply with stringent, complex and evolving laws, rules, regulations and standards in many jurisdictions, as well as contractual obligations, relating to data privacy and security. Any actual or perceived failure to comply with these requirements could have a material adverse effect on our business.

 

We are required to comply with stringent, complex and evolving laws, rules, regulations and standards in many jurisdictions, as well as contractual obligations, relating to data privacy and security. Ensuring compliance with such requirements may increase operating costs, impact our data processing practices and policies and the development of new products or services, and reduce operational efficiency, any of which could adversely affect our business and operations.

For example, in the United States, there are numerous federal, state and local data privacy and security laws, rules and regulations governing the collection, sharing, use, retention, disclosure, security, transfer, storage and other processing of personal information, including federal and state data privacy and security laws, data breach notification laws and data disposal laws. For example, at the federal level, we are subject to, among other laws and regulations, the rules and regulations promulgated under the authority of the Federal Trade Commission (which has the authority to regulate and enforce against unfair or deceptive acts or practices in or affecting commerce, including acts and practices with respect to data privacy and security), as well as the Electronic Communication Privacy Act, the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act, the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act and the Gramm Leach Bliley Act. The United States Congress also has considered, is currently considering, and may in the future consider, various proposals for comprehensive federal data privacy and security legislation, to which we may become subject if passed.

 

As our operation expands, we may be subject to laws and regulations such as the California Consumer Privacy Act, as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (collectively, the “CCPA”). The CCPA broadly defines personal information and gives California residents expanded privacy rights and protections, such as affording them the right to access and request deletion of their information and to opt out of certain sharing and sales of personal information. The CCPA provides for severe civil penalties and statutory damages for violations and a private right of action for certain data breaches that result in the loss of unencrypted personal information. This private right of action is expected to increase the likelihood of, and risks associated with, data breach litigation. Numerous other states have also enacted, or are in the process of enacting or considering, comprehensive state-level data privacy and security laws, rules and regulations that share similarities with the CCPA. Moreover, laws in all 50 U.S. states require businesses to provide notice under certain circumstances to consumers whose personal information has been disclosed as a result of a data breach.

 

Virtually every jurisdiction in which we operate has established its own data privacy and security legal framework with which we must comply. For example, we are required to comply with the European Union (“EU”) General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) and its equivalent in the U.K. (“U.K. GDPR”), which impose stringent obligations regarding the collection, control, use, sharing, disclosure and other processing of personal data and create mandatory breach notification requirements under certain circumstances. While the GDPR and U.K. GDPR remain substantially similar for the time being, the U.K. government has announced plans and introduced legislative proposals to chart its own path on data protection and reform its relevant laws, including in ways that may differ from the GDPR. While these developments increase uncertainty with regard to data protection regulation in the U.K., even in their current, substantially similar form, the GDPR and U.K. GDPR can expose businesses to divergent parallel regimes that may be subject to potentially different interpretations and enforcement actions for certain violations and related uncertainty. Failure to comply with the GDPR or the U.K. GDPR can result in significant fines and other liability, including, under the GDPR, fines of up to EUR 20 million (or GBP 17.5 million under the U.K. GDPR) or four percent (4%) of annual global revenue, whichever is greater. European data protection authorities have already imposed fines for GDPR violations of up to, in some cases, hundreds of millions of Euros. 

 

Legal developments in the European Economic Area (“EEA”) have created complexity and uncertainty regarding processing and transfers of personal data from the EEA to the United States and other so-called third countries outside the EEA, including in the context of website cookies. Similar complexities and uncertainties also apply to transfers from the U.K. to third countries. While we have taken steps to mitigate the impact on us, such as implementing the European Commission’s standard contractual clauses (“SCCs”) and the U.K.’s international Data Transfer Agreement (or the U.K.’s international data transfer addendum that can be used with the SCCs), the efficacy and longevity of these mechanisms remains uncertain. On July 10, 2023, the European Commission adopted an adequacy decision concluding that the U.S. ensures an adequate level of protection for personal data transferred from the EU to the U.S. under the recently adopted EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework (followed on October 12, 2023 with the adoption of an adequacy decision in the U.K. for the U.K.-U.S. Data Bridge); however, such new adequacy decision has been challenged in EU courts, and is likely to face additional challenges. Moreover, although the U.K. currently has an adequacy decision from the European Commission, such that SCCs are not required for the transfer of personal data from the EEA to the U.K., that decision will sunset in June 2025 unless extended and it may be revoked in the future by the European Commission if the U.K. data protection regime is reformed in ways that deviate substantially from the GDPR. The EU has also proposed legislation that would regulate non-personal data and establish new cybersecurity standards, and other countries, including the U.K., may similarly do so in the future. If we are otherwise unable to transfer data, including personal data, between and among countries and regions in which we operate, it could affect the manner in which we provide our services, the geographical location or segregation of our relevant systems and operations, and could adversely affect our financial results.

 

37

 

 

Further, as a Singapore-based company, we are also required to comply with the Singapore Personal Data Protection Act 2012 (“PDPA”) which governs the collection, use and disclosure of individuals’ personal data and seeks to ensure that organizations comply with a baseline standard of protection for personal data of individuals. The PDPA is administered and enforced by the Personal Data Protection Commission (“PDPC”). The PDPA requires organizations to comply with various obligations regarding the collection, use, disclosure and other processing of personal data and similarly requires organizations to comply with a mandatory breach notification obligation under certain circumstances. In addition, an organization must not transfer personal data to a country or territory outside Singapore except in accordance with the requirements prescribed under the PDPA. In this regard, an organization must ensure that the recipient of the personal data in that country outside Singapore is bound by legally enforceable obligations to provide to the transferred personal data a standard of protection that is at least comparable to the protection under the PDPA. Any improper use or disclosure of personal data and breaches of security leading to disclosure of personal data may also lead to criminal sanctions under the PDPA, reputational damage, and a direct loss of business. It is also important to note that for contraventions of the PDPA, the PDPC is empowered to impose financial penalties of up to S$1 million, or 10% of the organization’s annual turnover in Singapore (for organizations with annual turnover exceeding S$10 million), whichever is higher. The PDPC may publish enforcement decisions, which can have reputational consequences for organizations found to be in breach.

 

While we have implemented controls and procedures designed to comply with the requirements of the data privacy and security laws of some of the jurisdictions in which we operate, such procedures and controls may not be effective in ensuring compliance or preventing unauthorized transfers of personal data.

 

We are subject to U.S. and foreign anti-corruption, anti-bribery and similar laws, non-compliance with such laws can subject us to criminal or civil liability and harm our business.

 

We are subject to the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, as amended, the U.S. domestic bribery statute contained in 18 U.S.C. § 201, the U.S. Travel Act, other anti-bribery and anti-corruption laws in countries in which we conduct activities. Anti-corruption and anti-bribery laws have been enforced aggressively in recent years and are interpreted broadly to generally prohibit companies, their employees, and their third-party intermediaries from authorizing, promising, offering, providing, soliciting, or accepting, directly or indirectly, improper payments or benefits to or from any person whether in the public or private sector. We may engage with partners and third-party intermediaries to market our services and to obtain necessary permits, licenses and other regulatory approvals. In addition, we or our third-party intermediaries may have direct or indirect interactions with officials and employees of government agencies or state-owned or affiliated entities.

 

We can be held liable for the corrupt or other illegal activities of these third-party intermediaries, and of our employees, representatives, contractors, partners and agents, even if we do not explicitly authorize such activities. We cannot provide any assurance that all of our employees and agents will not take actions in violation of our policies and applicable law, for which we may be ultimately held responsible.

 

Detecting, investigating and resolving actual or alleged violations of anti-corruption laws can require a significant diversion of time, resources and attention from senior management. In addition, noncompliance with anti-corruption or anti-bribery laws could subject us to whistleblower complaints, investigations, sanctions, settlements, prosecution, enforcement actions, fines, damages, other civil or criminal penalties, injunctions, suspension or debarment from contracting with certain persons, reputational harm, adverse media coverage and other collateral consequences.

Our business is exposed to risks associated with litigation, investigations and regulatory proceedings.

 

We may in the future face legal, administrative and regulatory proceedings, claims, demands and/or investigations involving stockholder, consumer, competition and/or other issues relating to our business on a global basis, including in connection with the Business Combination. Litigation and regulatory proceedings are inherently uncertain, and adverse rulings could occur, including monetary damages, or an injunction stopping us from engaging in certain business practices, or requiring other remedies, such as compulsory licensing of patents. An unfavorable outcome or settlement may result in a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations, financial position and overall trends. In addition, regardless of the outcome, litigation can be costly, time-consuming and disruptive to our operations. Any claims or litigation, even if fully indemnified or insured, could damage our reputation and make it more difficult to compete effectively or to obtain adequate insurance in the future. In addition, the laws and regulations our business is subject to are complex and change frequently. We may be required to incur significant expense to comply with changes in, or remedy violations of, these laws and regulations.

 

Furthermore, while we maintain insurance for certain potential liabilities, such insurance does not cover all types and amounts of potential liabilities and is subject to various exclusions as well as caps on recoverable amounts. Even if we believe a claim is covered by insurance, insurers may dispute our entitlement to recovery for a variety of potential reasons, which may affect the timing and, if the insurers prevail, the amount of our recovery.

 

We may become subject to product liability claims, which could harm our financial condition and liquidity if we are not able to successfully defend or insure against such claims.

 

We may become subject to product liability claims, even those without merit, which could harm our business prospects, operating results and financial condition. We may face an inherent risk of exposure to claims in the event our development tools, or their outputs, do not perform as expected or malfunction. A successful product liability claim against us could require us to pay a substantial monetary award. Moreover, a product liability claim could generate substantial negative publicity about our quantum computing software development tools and business and inhibit or prevent the commercialization of other future quantum computers and products, which would have material adverse effects on our brand, business, prospects and operating results. Any insurance coverage might not be sufficient to cover all potential product liability claims. Any lawsuit seeking significant monetary damages either in excess of our coverage, or outside of our coverage, may have a material adverse effect on our reputation, business and financial condition. We may not be able to secure additional product liability insurance coverage on commercially acceptable terms or at reasonable costs when needed, particularly if we do face liability for our products and are forced to make a claim under our policy.

 

We are subject to requirements relating to environmental and safety regulations and environmental remediation matters, which could adversely affect our business, results of operations and reputation.

 

We are subject to numerous governmental environmental laws and regulations governing, among other things, solid and hazardous waste storage, treatment and disposal and remediation of releases of hazardous materials. There are significant capital, operating and other costs associated with compliance with these environmental laws and regulations. Environmental laws and regulations may become more stringent in the future, which could increase costs of compliance or require us to use alternative technologies and materials in our operations.

 

Governmental authorities also regulate a variety of matters, including, but not limited to, health, safety and permitting in addition to the environmental matters discussed above. New legislation and regulations may require us to make material changes to our operations, resulting in significant increases to the cost of production.

 

39

 

 

Government actions and regulations, such as tariffs, trade protection measures and national security concerns may limit our ability to provide products and services to our future customers and obtain products from our suppliers, which could have a material adverse impact on our business operations, financial results and growth plans.

 

Though we are a Singapore based company, political challenges between the United States and countries in our supply chain, including China, and changes to trade policies, including tariff rates and customs duties, trade relations between the United States and China and other macroeconomic and national security issues could adversely impact our business. Specifically, United States-China trade relations remain uncertain. The United States administration has continued to impose tariffs on certain products imported into the United States with China as the country of origin, and China has imposed tariffs in response to the actions of the United States. The likelihood of a further increase in tariffs on goods from China and the imposition of tariffs on goods sourced from other countries has materially increased in light of comments by the new U.S. presidential administration, which has repeatedly communicated an intention to impose additional duties on imports from China, as well as on imports from other countries. The U.S. government continues to add additional entities, in China and elsewhere, to restricted party lists impacting the ability of U.S. companies to provide products and technology, and, in certain cases, services, to these entities and, in some cases, to receive products, technology or services from these entities. The U.S. government also continues to increase end-use restrictions on the provision of products, technology and services to China and other countries including end-uses related to advanced computing. The new administration in the U.S. has indicated that it will seek to continue to impose tariffs against U.S. trading partners and there may be retaliatory tariffs against the U.S. as a result. These tariffs could adversely impact trade relations and result in higher costs. International trade conflict has contributed to (i) increased pressure on the supply chain and could further result in increased energy costs; (ii) inflation, which could result in increases in the cost of developing our products, reduced purchasing power, increased price pressure and reduce or cancelled orders; (iii) increased risk of cybersecurity attacks; and (iv) general market instability, all of which could adversely impact our business, operating results and financial condition. There is also a possibility of future tariffs, trade protection measures or other restrictions imposed on our products or on our future customers by the United States, China or other countries that could have a material adverse effect on our business. In addition, the Chinese government exercises significant control over China’s economy through the allocation of resources, control of the incurrence and payment of foreign currency-denominated obligations, setting of monetary policy and provision of preferential treatment to particular industries or companies. Changes in any of these policies, laws and regulations could adversely affect the overall economy in China or any indirect Chinese suppliers our supply chain may be exposed to, which could harm our business through higher supply costs, reduced availability or both.

 

Given the relatively fluid regulatory environment and existing national security concerns in China and the United States and uncertainty regarding how the U.S. government or Chinese and other foreign governments will act with respect to tariffs and international trade agreements and policies, a trade war, further governmental action related to tariffs or international trade policies, or additional tax or other regulatory changes in the future could directly and adversely impact our financial results and results of operations. We cannot predict what actions may ultimately be taken with respect to trade relations between the United States and China or other countries, what products may be subject to such actions or what actions may be taken by the other countries in retaliation. If we are unable to obtain or use components for inclusion in our products, if component prices increase significantly or if we are unable to export or sell our products to any of our future customers, our business, liquidity, financial condition and/or results of operations would be materially and adversely affected.

 

Global trade policy continues to evolve, and the ultimate impact of recent developments with respect to U.S. tariffs is unclear. On February 20, 2026, the United States Supreme Court issued a ruling striking down certain tariffs previously imposed under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (“IEEPA”). Following the Supreme Court’s decision, the U.S. presidential administration announced its intention to invoke other laws to collect tariffs and announced new tariffs on imports from all countries, in addition to any existing non-IEEPA tariffs. There remains substantial uncertainty regarding the duration of existing and newly announced tariffs, potential changes or pauses to such tariffs, tariff levels, and whether further additional tariffs or other retaliatory actions may be imposed, modified, or suspended, and the impacts of such actions on our business. These and future changes in tariffs, trade policies, trade actions, or retaliatory trade measures in response, have resulted and may continue to result in additional costs and pricing pressures, supply chain disruptions, volatile or unpredictable customer spending patterns, and increased economic or geopolitical risks, which could adversely impact our future sales, business, financial condition, and results of operations, materially or in ways that we cannot predict.

 

Our ability to use net operating loss carryforwards and other tax attributes may be limited.

 

We have incurred losses during our history; we do not expect to become profitable in the near future, and we may never achieve profitability. To the extent that we continue to generate taxable losses, unused losses will carry forward to offset future taxable income, if any, until such unused losses expire, if at all. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, we had net operating loss carryforwards of approximately S$30.2 million and S$17.5 million, respectively.

 

For example, U.S. federal net operating loss carryforwards generated in taxable periods beginning after December 31, 2017, may be carried forward indefinitely, but the deductibility of such net operating loss carryforwards is limited to 80% of taxable income. It is uncertain if and to what extent various states will conform to current federal law.

 

40

 

 

In addition, Horizon’s unutilized tax losses in Singapore can be carried forward indefinitely and are available for set-off against future taxable income, subject to compliance with the provisions of Section 37 of the Income Tax Act 1947 of Singapore (the “Singapore Income Tax Act”) and with the agreement of the Comptroller of Income Tax. In the event that (i) we are not able to comply with the relevant requirements of Section 37 of the Singapore Income Tax Act, including without limitation, there not having been any substantial change in the shareholders of Horizon and their shareholdings and there not having been any change in Horizon’s principal activities; and/or (ii) we are not able to obtain the Comptroller of Income Tax’s agreement for the carrying forward of unutilized tax losses, at the relevant time in the future, we may not be able to set-off such losses against future taxable income.

 

If we earn taxable income, such limitations will most likely result in increased future income tax liability and have an adverse effect on our future cash flows. We have recorded a valuation allowance related to our net operating loss carryforwards and other deferred tax assets due to the uncertainty of the ultimate realization of the future benefits of those assets.

 

Failure to comply with existing and changing laws and regulations applicable to our business could subject us to fines and penalties and could also cause us to lose customers or negatively impact our ability to contract with customers, including those in the public sector.

 

Our business is subject to regulation by various local and foreign governmental agencies, including agencies responsible for monitoring and enforcing data privacy and security laws and regulations, employment and labor laws, workplace safety, product safety, environmental laws, consumer protection laws, anti-bribery laws, import and export controls, securities laws and tax laws and regulations. Increased scrutiny may also lead to new laws and regulations, or new applications of existing laws and regulations, that target topics such as AI, critical infrastructure software resiliency and concentration risk. Noncompliance by us, our employees, representatives, contractors, agents, intermediaries, or other third parties with applicable regulations or requirements could subject us to:

 

  investigations, enforcement actions and sanctions;

 

  disgorgement of profits, fines and damages;

 

  civil and criminal penalties or injunctions;

 

  claims for damages by our future customers;

 

  termination of contracts;

 

  loss of intellectual property rights;

 

  loss of our license to do business in the jurisdictions in which we operate; or

 

  temporary or permanent debarment from sales to government organizations.

 

If any governmental sanctions are imposed, or if we do not prevail in any possible civil or criminal litigation, our business, results of operations and financial condition could be adversely affected. In addition, responding to any action will likely result in a significant diversion of management’s attention and resources and an increase in professional fees. Enforcement actions and sanctions could harm our business, results of operations and financial condition.

 

These laws and regulations impose added costs on our business, and failure by us, our employees, representatives, contractors, agents, intermediaries, or other third parties to comply with these or other applicable regulations and requirements could lead to claims for damages, penalties, termination of contracts, loss of exclusive rights in our intellectual property and temporary suspension or permanent debarment from government contracting. Any such damages, penalties, disruptions or limitations in our ability to do business with potential customers, including those in the public sector, could result in reduced sales of our products or services, substantial product inventory write-offs, reputational damage, penalties and other sanctions, any of which could harm our business, reputation and results of operations.

 

41

 

 

Additionally, as laws and regulations change in the jurisdictions in which we operate, we may be required to change our procedures, policies and products to ensure compliance with potential changes. Should this occur, the costs of compliance with and other burdens imposed by, industry-specific laws, regulations and interpretive positions may limit our future customers’ use and adoption of our services and reduce overall demand for our services. Compliance with these regulations may also require us to devote greater resources to support certain future customers, which may increase costs and lengthen sales cycles.

 

Risks Related to our Intellectual Property

 

We may be unable to obtain, maintain and protect our intellectual property rights and proprietary information such as if the scope of patent protection obtained is not sufficiently broad. Our competitors could develop and commercialize products and technology similar or identical to ours, and our ability to successfully commercialize our products and technology may be adversely affected.

 

Our intellectual property is important to our business. We rely on a combination of confidentiality clauses, assignment agreements and license agreements with employees and third parties, patents, trade secrets, copyrights and trademarks to protect our intellectual property and competitive advantage, all of which offer only limited protection. The steps we take to protect our intellectual property require significant resources and may be inadequate. We will not be able to protect our intellectual property if we are unable to enforce our rights or if we do not detect unauthorized use of our intellectual property. We may be required to use significant resources to obtain, monitor and protect our intellectual property. Despite our precautions, it may be possible for unauthorized third parties to copy our platform and our products and use information that we regard as proprietary to create products and services that compete with ours. Some license provisions protecting against unauthorized use, copying, transfer and disclosure of our proprietary information may be unenforceable under the laws of certain jurisdictions and foreign countries. In addition, we may not be able to acquire or maintain appropriate domain names in all countries in which we do business or prevent third parties from acquiring domain names that are similar to, infringe upon, diminish the value of our trademarks and other intellectual property. Furthermore, regulations governing domain names may not protect our trademarks or similar proprietary rights.

 

We enter into confidentiality and intellectual property agreements with our employees and consultants and enter into confidentiality agreements with the parties with whom we have strategic relationships and business alliances. These agreements may not be effective in securing ownership of our intellectual property or controlling access to our proprietary information and trade secrets. The confidentiality agreements on which we rely to protect certain technologies may be breached, may not be adequate to protect our confidential information, trade secrets and proprietary technologies and may not provide an adequate remedy in the event of unauthorized use or disclosure of our confidential information, trade secrets or proprietary technology. Further, these agreements do not prevent our competitors or others from independently developing technology that is substantially equivalent or superior to our technology. In addition, others may independently discover our trade secrets and confidential information, and in such cases, we likely would not be able to assert any trade secret rights against such parties. Additionally, we may from time to time be subject to opposition or similar proceedings with respect to applications for registrations of our intellectual property, including our trademarks. While we aim to acquire adequate protection of our brand through trademark registrations in key markets, occasionally third parties may have already registered or otherwise acquired rights to identical or similar marks for services that also address our market. We rely on our brand and trademarks to identify our platform and to differentiate our platform and services from those of our competitors, and if we are unable to adequately protect our trademarks third parties may use our brand names or trademarks similar to ours in a manner that may cause confusion in the market, which could decrease the value of our brand and adversely affect our business and competitive advantages.

 

42

 

 

Policing unauthorized use of our intellectual property and misappropriation of our technology and trade secrets is difficult and we may not always be aware of such unauthorized use or misappropriation. Despite our efforts to protect our intellectual property rights, unauthorized third parties may attempt to use, copy or otherwise obtain and market or distribute our intellectual property rights or technology or otherwise develop services with the same or similar functionality as our platform and products. If our competitors infringe, misappropriate, or otherwise misuse our intellectual property rights and we are not adequately protected, or if our competitors are able to develop a platform or product with the same or similar functionality as ours without infringing our intellectual property, our competitive advantage and results of operations could be harmed. Litigation brought to protect and enforce our intellectual property rights could be costly, time consuming and distracting to management and could result in the impairment or loss of portions of our intellectual property. As a result, we may be aware of infringement by our competitors, but may choose not to bring litigation to enforce our intellectual property rights due to the cost, time and distraction of bringing such litigation. Furthermore, if we do decide to bring litigation, our efforts to enforce our intellectual property rights may be met with defenses, counterclaims and countersuits challenging or opposing our right to use and otherwise exploit particular intellectual property, services and technology or the enforceability of our intellectual property rights. Our inability to protect our proprietary technology against unauthorized copying or use, as well as any costly litigation or diversion of our management’s attention and resources, could delay further sales or the implementation of our solutions, impair the functionality of our platform, prevent or delay introductions of new or enhanced solutions, result in our substituting inferior or more costly technologies into our platform or injure our reputation. Furthermore, many of our current and potential competitors have the ability to dedicate substantially greater resources to developing and protecting their technology or intellectual property rights than we do.

 

Certain intellectual property rights, including patents and trademarks, are territorial in scope and enforceable only in the jurisdictions in which they are registered. Therefore, we may be unable to prevent infringement or unauthorized use of our intellectual property in countries where we do not hold valid registrations. Securing and maintaining protection in each and every jurisdiction in which we currently operate, or may operate in the future, is costly and may not be practicable. This limitation could affect our ability to enforce our rights globally, particularly in jurisdictions with weak intellectual property enforcement regimes or where third parties have already obtained similar prior rights.

 

Our patent applications may not result in issued patents or our patent rights may be contested, circumvented, invalidated or limited in scope, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our ability to prevent others from interfering with the commercialization of our products.

 

Our patent applications may not result in issued patents, which may have a material adverse effect on our ability to prevent others from commercially exploiting products similar to ours. The status of patents involves complex legal and factual questions and the breadth of claims allowed is uncertain. As a result, we cannot be certain that any patent applications we have or will file will result in patents being issued, or that our patents and any patents that may be issued to us will afford protection against competitors with similar technology. Numerous patents and pending patent applications owned by others exist in the fields in which we have developed and are developing our technology. In addition to those who may have patents or patent applications directed to relevant technology with an effective filing date earlier than any of our existing patents or pending patent applications, any of our existing or pending patents may also be challenged by others on the basis that they are otherwise invalid or unenforceable. Furthermore, patent applications filed in foreign countries are subject to laws, rules and procedures that differ from those of the United States, and thus we cannot be certain that foreign patent applications related to issued United States patents will be issued.

 

Even if our patent applications succeed and we are issued patents in accordance with them, it is still uncertain whether these patents will be contested, circumvented, invalidated or limited in scope in the future. The rights granted under any issued patents may not provide us with meaningful protection or competitive advantages, and some foreign countries provide significantly less effective patent enforcement than in the United States. In addition, the claims under any patents that issue from our patent applications may not be broad enough to prevent others from developing technologies that are similar or that achieve results similar to ours. The intellectual property rights of others could also bar us from licensing and exploiting any patents that are issued from our pending applications. In addition, patents issued to us may be infringed upon or designed around by others and others may obtain patents that they need to license or design around, either of which would increase costs and may adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results.

 

43

 

 

We may face patent infringement and other intellectual property claims that could be costly to defend, result in injunctions and significant damage awards or other costs. If third parties claim that we infringe upon or otherwise violate their intellectual property rights, our business could be adversely affected.

 

The computing and software industries are characterized by the existence of a large number of patents and frequent claims and related litigation regarding patents, copyright and other intellectual property rights. Third parties may assert that our platform, solutions, technology, methods or practices infringe, misappropriate or otherwise violate their intellectual property. We face the risk of claims that we have infringed upon or otherwise violated third parties’ intellectual property rights. Our future success depends in part on not infringing upon or otherwise violating the intellectual property rights of others. From time to time, our competitors or other third parties may claim that we are infringing upon or otherwise violating their intellectual property rights, and we may be found to be infringing upon or otherwise violating such rights. We may be unaware of the intellectual property rights of others that may cover some or all of our technology or conflict with our trademark rights. Any claims of intellectual property infringement or other intellectual property violations, even those without merit, could:

 

  be expensive and time consuming to defend;

 

  cause us to cease making, licensing or using our platform or products that incorporate the challenged intellectual property;

 

  require us to modify, redesign, reengineer or rebrand our platform or products, if feasible;

 

  cause significant delays in introducing new or enhanced services or technology;

 

  divert management’s attention and resources; or

 

  require us to enter into royalty or licensing agreements in order to obtain the right to use a third party’s intellectual property.

 

Any royalty or licensing agreements, if required, may not be available to us on acceptable terms or at all. A successful claim of infringement against us could result in our being required to pay significant damages, enter into costly settlement agreements, or prevent us from offering our platform or products, any of which could have a negative impact on our operating profits and harm our future prospects. We may also be obligated to indemnify our future customers or business partners in connection with any such litigation and to obtain licenses, modify our platform or products, or refund subscription fees, which could further exhaust our resources. Such disputes could also disrupt our platform or products, adversely affecting our future customer satisfaction and ability to attract potential customers.

 

We rely on certain open-source software in our systems. If licensing terms change, our business may be adversely affected.

 

Our platform utilizes software licensed to us by third-party authors under “open-source” licenses and we expect to continue to utilize open-source software in the future. The use of open-source software may entail greater risks than the use of third-party commercial software, as open-source licensors generally do not provide warranties or other contractual protections regarding infringement claims or the quality of the code. To the extent that our platform depends upon the successful operation of the open-source software we use, any undetected errors or defects in this open-source software could prevent the deployment or impair the functionality of our platform, delay new solution introductions, result in a failure of our platform and injure our reputation. For example, undetected errors or defects in open-source software could render us vulnerable to breaches or security attacks, and, in conjunction, make our systems more vulnerable to data breaches.

 

Furthermore, some open-source licenses require the release of proprietary source code combined with, linked to or distributed with such open-source software to be released to the public. If we combine, link or distribute our proprietary software with open-source software in a specific manner, we could, under some open-source licenses, be required to release the source code of our proprietary software to the public. This would allow our competitors to create similar solutions with lower development effort and time and ultimately put us at a competitive disadvantage.

 

Although we monitor our use of open-source software to avoid subjecting our platform to conditions we do not intend to attach to such a platform or our proprietary code, we cannot assure you that our processes for controlling such use will be effective. If we are held to have breached the terms of an open-source software license, we could be required to seek licenses from third parties to continue operating using our solution on terms that are not economically feasible, to re-engineer our solution or the supporting computational infrastructure to discontinue use of code, or to make generally available, in source code form, portions of our proprietary code. This could allow our competitors to create similar solutions with lower development effort and time and ultimately put us at a competitive disadvantage.

Risks Related to Ownership of Our Securities

 

Following the Closing of the Business Combination, our only significant asset is our ownership of Horizon, and such ownership may not be sufficient to pay dividends or make distributions or obtain loans to enable us to pay any dividends on our Company Shares, pay our expenses or satisfy other financial obligations.

 

Following the Closing of the Business Combination, we are a holding company and do not directly own any assets other than our ownership of interests in Horizon and DMY. We depend on Horizon for distributions, loans and other payments to generate the funds necessary to meet our financial obligations, including expenses we incur as a publicly traded company, and to pay any dividends. The earnings from, or other available assets of, Horizon may not be sufficient for us to make distributions or pay dividends, pay expenses or satisfy our other financial obligations.

 

We incur higher costs post-Business Combination as a result of increased legal and regulatory scrutiny associated with being a public company. Our management will be required to devote substantial time to comply with a public company’s responsibilities and corporate governance practices.

 

We incur significant additional legal, accounting, insurance and other expenses, including costs associated with public company reporting requirements following the Closing of our Business Combination. We will incur higher costs associated with complying with the requirements of the Exchange Act, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 and related rules implemented by the SEC and Nasdaq. The expenses incurred by public companies generally for reporting and corporate governance purposes have been increasing. Additionally, we may need to further develop our reporting and compliance infrastructure and may face challenges in complying with new requirements that may become applicable to us over time. If we fall out of compliance, we risk becoming subject to litigation or being delisted, among other potential problems.

 

We expect these laws and regulations to increase our legal and financial compliance costs and to render some activities more time-consuming and costly, although we are currently unable to estimate these costs with any degree of certainty. Our management and other personnel are not experienced in managing a public company and will be required to devote a substantial amount of time to compliance with these requirements. We may need to hire more employees or engage outside consultants to comply with these requirements, which will increase our costs and expenses. These laws and regulations could make it more difficult or costly for us to obtain certain types of insurance, including directors’ and officers’ liability insurance, and we may be forced to accept reduced policy limits and coverage or incur substantially higher costs to obtain the same or similar coverage. These laws and regulations could also make it more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified persons to serve on our Board or Board committees or serve as our executive officers.

 

In the past, shareholders of some public companies brought securities class action suits following periods of instability in the market price of these companies’ securities. Our involvement in a class action suit could divert a significant amount of our management’s attention and other resources from our business, which could harm our results of operations and require us to incur significant expenses to defend the suit.

 

Any such class action suit, whether or not successful, could harm our reputation and restrict our ability to raise capital in the future. In addition, if a claim is successfully made against us, we may be required to pay significant damages, which could materially adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

Our management team has limited experience managing and operating a U.S. public company.

 

Our management team has limited experience managing and operating a U.S. publicly traded company, interacting with U.S. public company investors, and complying with the increasingly complex laws pertaining to U.S. public companies. We are subject to significant regulatory oversight and reporting obligations under the U.S. federal securities laws and the continuous scrutiny of securities analysts and investors. These obligations and constituents will require significant attention from our senior management and could divert their attention away from the day-to-day management of our business. We may not have adequate personnel with the appropriate level of knowledge, experience and training in the accounting policies, practices or internal controls over financial reporting required of U.S. public companies. The development and implementation of the standards and controls necessary for us to achieve the level of accounting standards required of a public company may require costs greater than expected. To support our operations as a U.S. public company, we plan to recruit additional qualified employees or external consultants with relevant experience, which will increase our operating costs in future periods. Notwithstanding these efforts, should the factors described previously materialize, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.

 

Reports published by analysts, including projections in those reports that differ from our actual results, could adversely affect the price and trading volume of our Company Class A Shares and Company Public Warrants.

 

Our management currently expects that securities research analysts will establish and publish their own periodic projections for our business. These projections may vary widely and may not accurately predict our actual results. Trading prices of our Company Class A Shares and Company Public Warrants may decline if our actual results do not match the projections of these securities research analysts. Similarly, if one or more of the analysts who write reports on us downgrades our stock or publishes inaccurate or unfavorable research about our business, our share price could decline. While our management expects research analyst coverage, if no analysts commence coverage of us or if one or more analysts cease coverage, the trading price and volume for our Company Class A Shares and Company Public Warrants could be adversely affected.

 

We do not expect to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future.

 

Any decision to declare and pay dividends in the future will be made at the discretion of our Board and will depend on, among other things, applicable law, regulations, restrictions, our results of operations, financial condition, cash requirements, contractual restrictions, our future projects and plans and other factors that the our Board may deem relevant. In addition, our ability to pay dividends depends significantly on the extent to which we receive dividends from Horizon and there can be no assurance that Horizon will pay dividends. As a result, capital appreciation, if any, of our Company Class A Shares and Company Warrants will be an investor’s sole source of gain for the foreseeable future.

 

Our actual financial position and results of operations may differ materially from the unaudited pro forma financial information included in this prospectus.

 

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information included in this prospectus is presented for illustrative purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of what our actual financial position or results of operations would have been had the Business Combination been completed on the dates indicated, or our future consolidated results of operations or financial position.

 

Investors may face difficulties enforcing foreign court judgments against us.

 

Currently, substantially all of our assets are located in Singapore and Ireland. It may be difficult for investors to enforce against us judgments obtained from courts outside these jurisdictions with regard to any actions pertaining to our assets located in those jurisdictions.

 

In addition, certain of our directors and officers are residents of Singapore and Ireland, and the majority of the assets of such persons are located in those countries. As a result, it may be difficult for investors to effect service of process upon our directors and officers who reside in Singapore and Ireland, or to enforce against them judgments obtained in courts outside Singapore and Ireland predicated upon the laws of jurisdictions other than Singapore and Ireland. Furthermore, not all jurisdictions in which we operate are parties to the New York Convention on the Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Arbitral Awards. While some have bilateral treaties concerning the recognition and enforcement of foreign court judgments, they are not parties to any other multinational treaties in this regard. A civil judgment or decision from a foreign court is enforceable in certain countries only if there is a treaty between the countries, a reciprocal agreement, or if it is permitted by the domestic laws of the enforcing country. Certain countries, such as Singapore and Ireland, may establish grounds for their domestic courts to refuse the recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments, decisions, or even foreign arbitral awards.

Provisions in our A&R Constitution may inhibit a takeover of us, which could limit the price investors might be willing to pay in the future for our securities and could entrench management.

 

Our A&R Constitution (“A&R Constitution”) contains provisions that may discourage unsolicited takeover proposals that our shareholders may consider to be in their best interests. Among other provisions, subject to the right of our shareholders as specified in our A&R Constitution and applicable laws, our Board has the authority, without further action by its shareholders, to issue preferred shares in one or more series and to fix their designations, powers, preferences, privileges and relative participating, optional or special rights and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions, including dividend rights, conversion rights, voting rights, terms of redemption and liquidation preferences, any or all of which may be greater than the rights associated with our Company Class A Shares. Subject to applicable laws, preferred shares could be issued quickly with terms calculated to delay or prevent a change in our control or make removal of management more difficult. However, under Singapore law, our Board may only exercise these rights and powers granted to them under our A&R Constitution for a proper purpose and for what they believe in good faith to be in our best interests.

 

Claims for indemnification by the Sponsor and our directors and officers may reduce our available funds to satisfy successful third-party claims against us and may reduce the amount of money available to us.

 

Provisions in our A&R Constitution provide that we will indemnify our directors and officers. Additionally, we entered into the Sponsor Indemnification Agreement with the Sponsor and Indemnification Agreements with our officers and directors at the Closing. While we have procured directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies which cover our directors and officers, such insurance policies may not be available to us in the future at a reasonable rate and may not cover all potential claims for indemnification.

 

We are an “emerging growth company,” and we cannot be certain if the reduced SEC reporting requirements applicable to emerging growth companies will make our Company Class A Shares less attractive to investors, which could have a material and adverse effect on us, including our growth prospects.

 

We are an “emerging growth company” as defined in the JOBS Act. We will remain an “emerging growth company” until the earliest to occur of (i) the last day of the fiscal year (a) following the fifth anniversary of DMY’s initial public offering, (b) in which we have total annual gross revenue of at least $1.235 billion or (c) in which we are deemed to be a large accelerated filer, which means the market value of our Company Class A Shares held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the last business day of our prior second fiscal quarter, and (ii) the date on which we have issued more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt during the prior three-year period. We intend to take advantage of exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to most other public companies that are classified as “emerging growth companies,” including, but not limited to, an exemption from the provisions of Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act requiring that our independent registered public accounting firm provide an attestation report on the effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting and reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation.

 

Furthermore, even after we no longer qualify as an “emerging growth company,” as long as we continue to qualify as a foreign private issuer under the Exchange Act, we will be exempt from certain provisions of the Exchange Act that are applicable to U.S. domestic public companies, including, but not limited to, the sections of the Exchange Act regulating the solicitation of proxies, consents or authorizations in respect of a security registered under the Exchange Act; the sections of the Exchange Act creating liability for insiders who profit from trades made in a short period of time; and the rules under the Exchange Act requiring the filing with the SEC of quarterly reports on Form 6-K containing unaudited financial and other specified information, upon the occurrence of specified significant events. In addition, we will not be required to file annual reports and financial statements with the SEC as promptly as U.S. domestic companies whose securities are registered under the Exchange Act, and are not required to comply with Regulation FD, which restricts the selective disclosure of material information.

 

As a result, our shareholders may not have access to certain information they deem important. We cannot predict if investors will find our Company Class A Shares less attractive because it relies on these exemptions. If some investors find our Company Class A Shares less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market and share price for our Company Class A Shares may be more volatile.

 

47

 

 

As a “foreign private issuer” under the rules and regulations of the SEC, we are permitted to file less or different information with the SEC than a company incorporated in the United States or otherwise subject to these rules and is permitted to follow certain home-country corporate governance practices in lieu of certain Nasdaq requirements applicable to U.S. issuers.

 

We are considered a “foreign private issuer” under the Exchange Act and are therefore exempt from certain rules under the Exchange Act, including the proxy rules, which impose certain disclosure and procedural requirements for proxy solicitations for U.S. and other issuers. Moreover, we are not required to file periodic reports and financial statements with the SEC as frequently or within the same time frames as U.S. companies with securities registered under the Exchange Act, although we may elect to file certain periodic reports and financial statements with the SEC on a voluntary basis on the forms used by U.S. domestic issuers. We are not required to comply with Regulation FD, which imposes restrictions on the selective disclosure of material information to shareholders. In addition, our officers, directors and principal shareholders are exempt from the short-swing profit recovery provisions of Section 16 of the Exchange Act and the rules under the Exchange Act with respect to their purchases and sales of our securities.

 

In addition, as a “foreign private issuer”, we are permitted to follow certain home-country corporate governance practices in lieu of certain Nasdaq requirements. A foreign private issuer must disclose in its Annual Reports filed with the SEC each Nasdaq requirement with which it does not comply followed by a description of its applicable home country practice. We cannot give any assurances that we will continue to follow such corporate governance requirements in the future, and may therefore in the future rely on available Nasdaq exemptions that would allow us to follow our home country practice. Unlike the requirements of Nasdaq, we are not required, under the corporate governance practice and requirements in Singapore for companies that are not listed on the Singapore Exchange, to have our board consist of a majority of independent directors, nor are we required to have a compensation committee or a nominating and corporate governance committee consisting entirely of independent directors, or have regularly scheduled executive sessions with only independent directors each year. Such Singapore home country practices for companies that are not listed on the Singapore Exchange may afford less protection to holders of our Company Class A Shares. Notwithstanding the foregoing, we do not intend to rely on any foreign private issuer exemptions at this time.

 

We will lose our status as a “foreign private issuer” under current SEC rules and regulations if more than 50% of our outstanding voting securities become directly or indirectly held of record by U.S. holders and one of the following is true: (i) the majority of our directors or executive officers are U.S. citizens or residents; (ii) more than 50% of our assets are located in the United States; or (iii) our business is administered principally in the United States. If we lose our status as a foreign private issuer in the future, we will no longer be exempt from the rules described above and, among other things, we will be required to file periodic reports and annual and quarterly financial statements as if we were a company incorporated in the United States. If this were to happen, we would likely incur substantial costs in fulfilling these additional regulatory requirements and members of our management would likely have to divert time and resources from other responsibilities to ensuring these additional regulatory requirements are fulfilled.

 

Because Joseph Fitzsimons, our chief executive officer and Chairman of our Board, beneficially own approximately 38.3% of our outstanding Company Shares and approximately 65.0% of the voting control of the Company as of the Closing of the Business Combination.

 

Because our chief executive officer, Joseph Fitzsimons owns 38.3%, of our Company Shares and approximately 65.0% of the voting control of the Company as of the Closing of the Business Combination, he has the power to elect the majority of our directors and to approve any matter which is subject to shareholder approval. In addition, as our chief executive officer, Dr. Fitzsimons has significant authority in the implementation of our business plan. He has also historically been responsible for our product development and our present products have been the result of his research and development efforts. Dr. Fitzsimons’ interests may be different from our interests. Because of Dr. Fitzsimons’ conflict of interest, there is a risk that any actions he may take may have an adverse effect upon the success and development of our business and the price of our Company Class A Shares.

 

As a result of the voting power of Dr. Fitzsimons, investors will have little, if any, power to influence our business or to approve any action submitted to shareholders for their approval. The fact that he has a controlling interest in us may, by itself, serve as a deterrent to any person seeking to obtain control of us or to enter into any business relationship which might be beneficial to the minority stockholders.

 

48

 

 

Our dual class share structure with different voting rights will limit your ability to influence corporate matters and could discourage others from pursuing any change of control transactions that holders of our Company Class A Shares may view as beneficial.

 

We have a dual class share structure such that our Company Shares consist of Company Class A Shares and Company Class B Shares. In respect of matters requiring the votes of shareholders, each Company Class A Ordinary Share is entitled to one vote and each Company Class B Ordinary Share is entitled to three (3) votes. The holder of Company Class B Shares would have the right to convert each Company Class B Ordinary Share into one Company Class A Ordinary Share at any time, at the election of the holder of Company Class B Shares. Upon any sale, assignment, transfer, pledge or other disposition of the Company Class B Shares, whether or not for value and whether or not voluntary or involuntary (with certain customary exceptions), such Company Class B Shares will automatically be converted into Company Class A Shares at an initial conversion rate of one to one, subject to adjustment by our Board. Additionally, all outstanding Company Class B Shares will automatically be converted into Company Class A Shares at an initial conversion rate of one to one, subject to adjustment by our Board, as follows: (x) at 5:00 p.m., Singapore time, on the first day following the date on which Dr. Fitzsimons is no longer serving as one of our directors or officers, (y) the death or incapacity of Dr. Fitzsimons, and (z) such time as the number of outstanding Company Class B Shares is less than 50% of the total number of Company Class B Shares outstanding as of immediately following the Amalgamation (as equitably adjusted for share splits, reverse share splits, share dividends, reorganizations, consolidations, exchanges of shares or other similar transactions). The Company Class B Shares are also convertible into an equal number of Company Class A Shares at any time at the option of the holder.

 

Company Class A Shares are not convertible into Company Class B Shares under any circumstances. The holder of Company Class B Shares will, subject to applicable laws, have the ability to control matters requiring shareholders’ approval, including any amendment of the organizational documents. Any future issuances of Company Class B Shares may be dilutive to the voting power of holders of Company Class A Shares. Any conversions of Company Class B Shares into Company Class A Shares may dilute the percentage ownership of the existing holders of Company Class A Shares within their class of Company Shares. Such conversions may increase the aggregate voting power of the existing holders of Company Class A Shares. Future issuances of Company Class B Shares may also be dilutive to holders of Company Class B Shares.

 

As a result of the dual class share structure and the concentration of ownership, Dr. Fitzsimons, the sole beneficial owner of Company Class B Shares, has considerable influence over decision-making with respect to our business direction and policies. Subject to applicable laws, matters over which the Dr. Fitzsimons will, directly or indirectly, exercise significant influence include: (i) increases or decreases in the size of the Board and the election of the directors of the Board; (ii) amendments of the organizational documents; and (iii) approval of other major corporate transactions, such as merger, consolidation, or sale of assets. This disparate voting rights structure may have anti-takeover effects, and may discourage, delay or prevent a change in our control, which could have the effect of depriving other shareholders of the opportunity to receive a premium for their Company Class A Shares or Company Class A Shares as part of a sale of us and may reduce the price of Company Shares.

 

We are a “controlled company” within the meaning of the Nasdaq rules and, as a result, may rely on exemptions from certain corporate governance requirements that provide protection to shareholders of other companies.

 

In addition to being a foreign private issuer, we are a “controlled company” as defined under the Nasdaq rules, because Dr. Fitzsimons beneficially owns approximately 65.0% of our voting power. Such controlling interest beneficially owned by Dr. Fitzsimons allows him to indirectly control, subject to applicable laws, matters submitted to the shareholders for vote. For as long as we remains a controlled company under that definition, we are permitted to elect to rely, and may rely, on certain exemptions from corporate governance rules, including an exemption from the rule that a majority of the our Board must consist of independent directors, that we have to establish a compensation committee composed entirely of independent directors or that we have independent director oversight of director nominations. However, we do not intend to rely on any controlled company exemptions at this time.

Future sales of our securities or warrants exercisable for our Company Class A Shares may depress our stock price.

 

Sales of a substantial number of shares of our Company Class A Shares or securities convertible into our Company Class A Shares in the public market, or the perception that these sales could occur, could adversely affect the market price of our common stock and could materially impair our ability to raise capital through equity offerings in the future.

  

Upon the Closing of the Business Combination, 6,044,160 Company Class A Shares are issuable upon the exercise of 6,044,160 outstanding Company Warrants, and 5,983,204 Company Class A Shares are issuable upon the exercise of 5,983,204 Company Options. We may file a registration statement to register shares reserved for future issuance under our 2026 Plan (as defined below) and ESPP (as defined below). Subject to the satisfaction of applicable vesting requirements and expiration of lock-up periods discussed below, the shares issued upon exercise of outstanding stock options would be available for immediate resale in the open market.

 

Furthermore, 41,793,891 shares are subject to contractual lock-up obligation pursuant to the Lock-Up Agreement (as defined below). When the applicable lock-up periods expire, our security holders subject to lock-up provisions will be able to sell Company Class A Shares in the public market. Sales of a substantial number of such shares upon expiration of the lock-up provisions, the perception that such sales may occur or early release of these lock-up provisions could cause our market price to fall or make it more difficult for our security holders to sell the Company Class A Shares they hold at a time and price that they deem appropriate.

 

Our failure to meet the continued listing requirements of Nasdaq could result in a delisting of our common stock.

 

If we fail to satisfy the continued listing requirements of Nasdaq, such as the corporate governance requirements or the minimum closing bid price requirement, Nasdaq may take steps to delist our Company Class A Shares. Such a delisting would likely have a negative effect on the price of our Company Class A Shares and would impair your ability to sell or purchase our common stock when you wish to do so. In the event of a delisting, we can provide no assurance that any action taken by us to restore compliance with listing requirements would allow our common stock to become listed again, stabilize the market price or improve the liquidity of our Company Class A Shares, prevent our Company Class A Shares from dropping below the Nasdaq minimum bid price requirement or prevent future non-compliance with Nasdaq’s listing requirements.

 

An active, liquid trading market for our Company Class A Shares and Company Public Warrants may not develop, which may limit your ability to sell our Company Class A Shares or Company Public Warrants.

 

Prior to the completion of the Business Combination, there was no public market for our Company Class A Shares or Company Public Warrants. Although we have listed our Company Class A Shares and Company Public Warrants on Nasdaq under the ticker symbols “HQ” and “HQWWW,” respectively, an active trading market for our Company Class A Shares or Company Public Warrants may never develop or be sustained.

 

A public trading market having the desirable characteristics of depth, liquidity and orderliness depends upon the existence of willing buyers and sellers at any given time, such existence being dependent upon the individual decisions of buyers and sellers over which neither we nor any market maker has control. The failure of an active and liquid trading market to develop and continue would likely have a material adverse effect on the value of our Company Class A Shares and Company Public Warrants. An inactive market may also impair our ability to raise capital to continue to fund operations by issuing Company Class A Shares and Company Public Warrants.

 

50

 

 

The price of our securities may be volatile, and the value of our securities may decline.

 

We cannot predict the prices at which our securities will trade. The market price of our securities may fluctuate substantially. In addition, the trading price of our securities could be subject to fluctuations in response to various factors, some of which are beyond our control. These fluctuations could cause you to lose all or part of your investment. Factors that could cause fluctuations in the trading price of our securities include the following:

 

  actual or anticipated fluctuations in our financial condition or results of operations;

 

  variance in our financial performance from expectations of securities analysts;

 

  changes in our projected operating and financial results;

 

  changes in laws or regulations applicable to our business;

 

  announcements by us or our competitors of significant business developments, acquisitions or new offerings;

 

  sales of our securities by our shareholders or warrant holders, as well as the anticipation of lockup releases;

 

  significant breaches of disruptions to or other incidents involving our information technology systems or those of its business partners;

 

  our involvement in material litigation;

 

  changes in senior management or key personnel;

 

  the trading volume of our securities;

 

  general economic and market conditions; and

 

  other events or factors, including those resulting from war, incidents of terrorism, global pandemics or responses to these events.

 

Short sellers may engage in manipulative activity intended to drive down the market price of our Company Class A Shares, which could also result in related regulatory and governmental scrutiny, among other effects.

 

Short selling is the practice of selling securities that the seller does not own but rather has borrowed or intends to borrow from a third party with the intention of later buying lower priced identical securities to return to the lender. Accordingly, it is in the interest of a short seller of our Company Class A Shares for the price to decline. At any time, short sellers may publish, or arrange for the publication of, opinions or characterizations that are intended to create negative market momentum. We may be vulnerable to such short seller attacks as a result of our limited public float following the Closing. Short selling reports may cause increased volatility in our stock price, and result in regulatory and governmental inquiries. Any inquiry or formal investigation from a governmental organization or other regulatory body, including any inquiry from the SEC or the U.S. Department of Justice, could result in a material diversion of our management’s time and could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.

 

51

 

 

The Warrant Assumption Agreement relating to the Company Warrants provides that we have agreed that any action, proceeding or claim against it arising out of or relating in any way to such agreement will be brought and enforced in the courts of the State of New York or the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, and that we irrevocably submit to such jurisdiction, which jurisdiction will be the exclusive forum for any such action, proceeding or claim. This exclusive forum provision could limit our Company Warrant holders’ ability to obtain what they believe to be a favorable judicial forum for disputes related to the Warrant Assumption Agreement.

 

In connection with the Business Combination, we entered into a warrant assumption and amendment agreement through an assumption of and amendment to the existing warrant agreement entered into by DMY and the warrant agent in connection with DMY’s IPO (the “Warrant Assumption Agreement”).The Warrant Assumption Agreement provides that any action, proceeding or claim against us arising out of or relating in any way to such agreement will be brought and enforced in the courts of the State of New York or the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, which will be the exclusive forum for any such action, proceeding or claim. This provision will apply to claims under the Securities Act but, as discussed below, will not apply to claims under the Exchange Act.

 

Section 27 of the Exchange Act creates exclusive federal jurisdiction over all suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Exchange Act or the rules and regulations thereunder. As a result, the exclusive forum provision in the Warrant Assumption Agreement does not apply to suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Exchange Act or any other claim for which the federal courts have exclusive jurisdiction. Accordingly, the exclusive forum provision does not designate the courts of the State of New York as the exclusive forum for any derivative action arising under the Exchange Act, as there is exclusive federal jurisdiction in that instance.

 

Section 22 of the Securities Act creates concurrent jurisdiction for federal and state courts over all suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Securities Act or the rules and regulations thereunder. As a result, the enforceability of the exclusive forum provision in the Warrant Assumption Agreement is uncertain, and a court may determine that such provision will not apply to suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Securities Act or any other claim for which the federal and state courts have concurrent jurisdiction. Further, compliance with the federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder cannot be waived by investors in our securities.

 

The exclusive forum provision in the Warrant Assumption Agreement may limit a shareholder’s ability to bring a claim in a judicial forum that it finds favorable for disputes related to the Warrant Assumption Agreement, which may discourage such lawsuits against us and our directors or officers. Alternatively, if a court were to find this exclusive forum provision inapplicable to, or unenforceable in respect of, one or more of the specified types of actions or proceedings, we may incur additional costs associated with resolving such matters in other jurisdictions, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations and result in a diversion of the time and resources of our management and board of directors.

 

We may redeem unexpired Company Warrants prior to their exercise at a time that is disadvantageous to you, thereby making your Company Warrants worthless.

 

We have the ability to redeem the outstanding Company Public Warrants at any time after they become exercisable and prior to their expiration, at a price of $0.01 per warrant, provided that the closing price of our Company Class A Shares equals or exceeds $18.00 per share (as adjusted for adjustments to the number of shares issuable upon exercise or the exercise price of a warrant as described below in the section entitled “Description of our Securities – Company Public Warrants”) for any 20 trading days within a 30 trading-day period ending on the third trading day prior to proper notice of such redemption and provided that certain other conditions are met. If and when the Company Public Warrants become redeemable by us, we may exercise our redemption right even if we are unable to register or qualify the underlying securities for sale under all applicable state securities laws. As a result, we may redeem the Company Public Warrants as set forth above even if the holders are otherwise unable to exercise the Company Public Warrants. Redemption of the outstanding warrants could force holders of the Company Public Warrants to (i) exercise the Company Public Warrants and pay the exercise price therefor at a time when it may be disadvantageous for them to do so, (ii) sell the Company Public Warrants at the then-current market price when they might otherwise wish to hold the Company Public Warrants or (iii) accept the nominal redemption price which, at the time the outstanding Company Public Warrants are called for redemption, we expect would be substantially less than the market value of the Company Public Warrants. As of the date of this prospectus, our Company Class A Shares have never traded above $18.00 per share, therefore neither current nor recent share prices meet or exceed the threshold that would allow us to redeem the Company Public Warrants.

In addition, we have the ability to redeem the outstanding Company Public Warrants at any time after they become exercisable and prior to their expiration, at a price of $0.10 per warrant upon a minimum of 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption provided that the closing price of our Company Class A Shares equals or exceeds $10.00 per share (as adjusted for adjustments to the number of shares issuable upon exercise or the exercise price of a warrant as described below in the section entitled “Description of our Securities – Company Public Warrants”) for any 20 trading days within a 30 trading-day period ending on the third trading day prior to proper notice of such redemption and provided that certain other conditions are met, including that holders will be able to exercise their warrants prior to redemption for a number of Company Class A Shares determined based on the redemption date and the fair market value of Company Class A Shares. The value received upon exercise of the warrants (i) may be less than the value the holders would have received if they had exercised their warrants at a later time where the underlying share price is higher and (ii) may not compensate the holders for the value of the warrants, including because the number of Company Class A Shares received is capped at 0.361 Company Class A Ordinary Share per warrant (subject to adjustment) irrespective of the remaining life of the warrants. In addition, such redemptions may occur at a time when the Company Public Warrants are “out-of-the-money,” in which case holders thereof would lose any potential embedded value from a subsequent increase in the value of the Company Class A Shares had such Company Public Warrants remained outstanding.

 

None of the Sponsor Warrants will be redeemable by us so long as they are held by the Sponsor or its permitted transferees.

  

The Company Warrants will be recognized and accounted for as derivative liabilities in accordance with ASC 815 and will be recorded at fair value upon issuance with changes in fair value each period reported in earnings, which may have an adverse effect on the market price of the Company Class A Shares.

 

The guidance contained in ASC 815-40 provides that because the Company Warrants do not meet the criteria for equity treatment thereunder, each warrant must be recorded as a liability. Accordingly, we classify each of the Company Warrants as a liability at its fair value as determined by us based upon a valuation report obtained from an independent third party valuation firm. At each reporting period (1) the accounting treatment of the Company Warrants will be re-evaluated for proper accounting treatment as a liability or equity and (2) the fair value of the liability of the Company Warrants is remeasured and the change in the fair value of the liability is recorded as other income (expense) in our income statement. Changes in the inputs and assumptions for the valuation model we use to determine the fair value of such liability may have a material impact on the estimated fair value of the embedded derivative liability. The share price of our Company Class A Shares represents the primary underlying variable that will impact the value of the derivative instruments. Additional factors that may impact the value of the derivative instruments include the volatility of our share price, discount rates and stated interest rates. As a result, our financial statements and results of operations will fluctuate quarterly, based on various factors, such as the share price of the Company Class A Shares, many of which are outside of our control. In addition, we may change the underlying assumptions used in our valuation model, which could in result in significant fluctuations in our results of operations. If our share price is volatile, we expect that we will recognize non-cash gains or losses on our warrants or any other similar derivative instruments each reporting period and that the amount of such gains or losses could be material. The impact of changes in fair value on earnings may have an adverse effect on the market price of our Company Class A Shares.

 

The issuance of additional share capital in connection with financings, acquisitions, investments, or otherwise will dilute all other shareholders.

 

We expect to issue additional share capital in the future that will result in dilution to all other shareholders. We may raise capital through equity financings in the future. As part of our business strategy, we may acquire or make investments in companies, solutions or technologies and issue equity securities to pay for any such acquisition or investment. Any such issuances of the additional share capital may cause shareholders to experience significant dilution of their ownership interests and the per share value of the Company Shares to decline.

 

Risks Related to Investments in Singapore Companies

 

Singapore take-over laws contain provisions which may vary from those in other jurisdictions.

 

On February 27, 2026, the Securities Industry Council of Singapore (“SIC”) waived the application of the provisions of the Singapore Code on Take-overs and Mergers (the “Singapore Take-over Code”) for us subject to certain exceptions (the “Waiver”). Pursuant to the Waiver, we are exempted from application of the provisions of the Singapore Take-over Code, except in the case of a “tender offer” (within the meaning of U.S. securities laws) where the Tier 1 exemption set forth in Rule 14d-1(c) of the Exchange Act, is available and the offeror relies on such exemption to avoid full compliance with applicable rules and regulations regarding tender offers in the U.S. In connection with the application for the Waiver, our director at the time had submitted to the SIC a written confirmation to the effect that we believe that the application of the U.S. regulatory regime (without concurrent regulation by the Singapore Take-Over Code) would be appropriate and is therefore of the view that it is in our interests that the Waiver be obtained. 

 

In the event that the provisions of the Singapore Take-Over Code apply, there are certain provisions that may possibly delay, deter or prevent a future take-over or change in control of us. Under the Singapore Take-Over Code, except with the consent of SIC, any person acquiring an interest, whether by a series of transactions over a period of time or not, either on his own or together with parties acting in concert with him, in 30% or more of our voting rights, is required to extend a take-over offer for all the relevant class(es) of shares in our capital in accordance with the Singapore Take-Over Code. Except with the consent of the SIC, such a take-over offer is also required to be made if a person holding between 30% and 50% (both inclusive) of our voting rights, either on his own or together with parties acting in concert with him, acquires additional voting shares representing more than 1% of our voting rights in any six-month period. In the case where we have more than one class of equity share capital, a comparable take-over offer must be made for each class of shares in accordance with the Singapore Take-Over Code and the SIC should be consulted in advance in such cases. While the Singapore Take-Over Code seeks to ensure an equality of treatment among shareholders in take-over or merger situations, its provisions could substantially impede the ability of the shareholders to benefit from a change of control and, as a result, may adversely affect the market price of the Company Shares and the ability to realize any benefit from a potential change of control. In addition, an offeror must treat all shareholders of the same class in an offeree company equally. This concentration of ownership could accelerate, delay, defer or prevent a change in our control or a successful offer under the Singapore Take-Over Code by another person.

CAPITALIZATION

 

As we will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the Registered Securities sold by the Selling Securityholders, no further change is disclosed on a pro forma basis to reflect sales of shares pursuant to this prospectus. The likelihood that warrant holders will exercise the Warrants and any cash proceeds that we would receive is dependent upon the market price of our Class A Shares. Based on the closing price of our Class A Shares at US$13.05 on April 20, 2026, which is greater than the exercise price of US$11.50 per share pursuant to the terms of the Company Warrants, we believe holders of the Company Warrants may exercise their Company Warrants, and, if the Company Warrants are exercised on a cash basis, we will receive proceeds from the exercise of Company Warrants. Therefore, proceeds receivable from the exercise of the Company Warrants are also excluded from the adjustments.

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

 

Defined terms included below shall have the same meaning as terms defined and included elsewhere in this Registration Statement.

 

Introduction

 

The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information presents the combination of financial information of DMY and Horizon, adjusted to give effect to the Business Combination and related transactions. The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X as amended by the final rule, Release No. 33-10786 “Amendments to Financial Disclosures about Acquired and Disposed Businesses” to depict the accounting for the transaction (“Transaction Accounting Adjustments”) and present the reasonably estimable synergies and other transaction effects that have occurred or are reasonably expected to occur (“Management’s Adjustments”). DMY has elected not to present Management’s Adjustments and will only be presenting Transaction Accounting Adjustments in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information.

 

The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of December 31, 2025, assumes that the Business Combination occurred on December 31, 2025. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2025, assume that the Business Combination occurred on January 1, 2025.

 

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements have been presented for illustrative purposes only and do not necessarily reflect what the Company’s financial condition or results of operations would have been had the Business Combination occurred on the dates indicated. Further, the pro forma condensed combined financial information also may not be useful in predicting the future financial condition and results of operations of the Company. The actual financial position and results of operations of the Company may differ significantly from the pro forma amounts reflected herein due to a variety of factors.

 

The historical financial information of DMY was derived from the audited financial statements of DMY for the year ended December 31, 2025, which are incorporated by reference. The historical financial information of Horizon was derived from the audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025, which are incorporated by reference. This information should be read together with DMY’s and Horizon’s financial statements, and related notes, the sections titled “DMY Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and “Horizon Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”.

 

Description of the Business Combination

 

The Business Combination Agreement

 

Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, the following occurred: (1) the Amalgamation of Merger Sub 1 and Horizon, whereby Horizon became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, in accordance with the Business Combination Agreement and the Singapore Companies Act; (2) the Merger of Merger Sub 2 with and into DMY, with DMY surviving the Merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, in accordance with the Business Combination Agreement and the Massachusetts Business Corporations Act; and (3) the other transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement and documents related thereto.

 

Transfer Restrictions

 

In connection with the Closing, pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, the Lock-Up Securityholders entered into the Lock-Up Agreement with the Company, pursuant to which the Lock-Up Shares are subject to lock-up during the Shares Lock-Up Period and the Company Warrants and underlying Company Shares are subject to lock-up during the Warrants Lock-Up Period.

 

SAFE Financing

 

Horizon obtained S$3.8 million (or $3.0 million) of SAFE financing prior to the execution of the Business Combination Agreement. Following the execution of the Business Combination Agreement through the Closing, Horizon obtained an additional S$6.9 million (or $5.4 million) of SAFE financing.

 

PIPE Investment

 

On December 4, 2025, DMY, the Company and Horizon entered into the PIPE Subscription Agreements with the PIPE Investors. Pursuant to the PIPE Subscription Agreements, the Company issued and sold the PIPE Investors an aggregate of approximately S$139.7 million (or $108.7 million) of the Company’s PIPE Shares, at a per share price equal to the per share price at which each Public Share may be redeemed in connection with the Business Combination (the “Redemption Price”). At the time of the Business Combination, the Redemption Price was $11.82.

The following table illustrates varying ownership levels of the Company immediately following the Business Combination.

 

The following table excludes the dilutive effect of Company Warrants, Company Options, and Company Class A Shares that will initially be available for issuance under the 2026 Plan and ESPP.

(2) Amount includes 1,163,484 Founder Shares held by Sponsor and 49,214 Company Class A Shares issuable in respect of Mr. You’s $500,000 SAFE investment in Horizon.

(3) On March 11, 2026, DMY engaged Revere Securities LLC as its financial advisor and marketing agent in connection with the Business Combination. In compensation for the service, DMY paid the Financial Advisor a cash fee of $200,000 and an equity fee of 20,000 shares.

 

Accounting Treatment

 

The Business Combination was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization in accordance with GAAP. Under this method of accounting, although the Business Combination was structured such that Company was the legal acquirer of both DMY and Horizon, for financial reporting purposes, the transaction was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization, with Horizon treated as the accounting acquirer and DMY treated as the acquired company. Accordingly, the Business Combination was treated as the equivalent of Horizon issuing stock for the net assets of DMY, accompanied by a recapitalization. The net assets of DMY were stated at historical cost, with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded. Operations prior to the Business Combination were those of Horizon.

 

Horizon was determined to be the accounting acquirer based on evaluation of the following facts and circumstances:

 

  The shareholders of Horizon have the greatest voting interest in the Company;

 

  The shareholders of Horizon have the ability to control decisions regarding election and removal of directors and officers of the Company;

 

  Horizon comprises the ongoing operations of the Company; and

 

  Horizon’s existing senior management is the senior management of the Company.

 

The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of December 31, 2025, and the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2025, are based on the audited historical financial statements of DMY and Horizon. The unaudited pro forma adjustments are based on information currently available, and assumptions and estimates underlying the unaudited pro forma adjustments are described in the accompanying notes. Actual results may differ materially from the assumptions used to present the accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information and include immaterial rounding differences.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The Business Combination was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization in accordance with GAAP. Under this method of accounting, although the Business Combination was structured such that the Company was the legal acquirer of both DMY and Horizon, for financial reporting purposes, the transaction was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization, with Horizon treated as the accounting acquirer and DMY treated as the acquired company. Accordingly, the Business Combination was treated as the equivalent of Horizon issuing stock for the net assets of DMY, accompanied by a recapitalization. The net assets of DMY were stated at historical cost, with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded. Operations prior to the Business Combination were those of Horizon.

 

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of December 31, 2025, assumes that the Business Combination and related transactions occurred on December 31, 2025. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2025, presents pro forma effect to the Business Combination as if it had been completed on January 1, 2025.

 

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of December 31, 2025, has been prepared using, and should be read in conjunction with, the following:

 

  DMY’s audited balance sheet as of December 31, 2025 and the related notes for the year ended December 31, 2025, which are incorporated by reference; and

 

  Horizon’s audited consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2025 and the related notes for the year ended December 31, 2025, which are incorporated by reference.

 

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2025, has been prepared using, and should be read in conjunction with, the following:

 

  DMY’s audited statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2025, and the related notes, which are incorporated by reference; and

 

  Horizon’s audited statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2025, and the related notes, which are incorporated by reference.

 

The historical financial statements of DMY have been translated into and are presented in SGD using the following exchange rates:

 

  at the period exchange rate as of December 31, 2025, of US$1.00 to SGD$1.2853 for the balance sheet;

 

  the average exchange rate for the year ended December 31, 2025, of US$1.00 to SGD$1.30662 for the statement of operations for the period ending on that date.

 

As the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared based on these preliminary estimates, the final amounts recorded may differ materially from the information presented.

 

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information does not give effect to any anticipated synergies, operating efficiencies, tax savings or cost savings that may be associated with the Business Combination.

 

The pro forma adjustments reflecting the consummation of the Business Combination are based on certain currently available information and certain assumptions and methodologies that DMY believes are reasonable under the circumstances. The unaudited condensed pro forma adjustments, which are described in the accompanying notes, may be revised as additional information becomes available and is evaluated. Therefore, it is likely that the actual adjustments will differ from the pro forma adjustments, and it is possible the difference may be material. DMY believes that its assumptions and methodologies provide a reasonable basis for presenting all of the significant effects of the Business Combination based on information available to management at this time and that the pro forma adjustments give appropriate effect to those assumptions and are properly applied in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information.

 

63

 

 

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is not necessarily indicative of what the actual results of operations and financial position of the Company would have been had the Business Combination taken place on the dates indicated, nor are they indicative of the future consolidated results of operations or financial position of the Company. They should be read in conjunction with the historical financial statements and notes thereto of DMY and Horizon.

 

Accounting Policies

 

Upon consummation of the Business Combination, management of the Company performed a comprehensive review of the two entities’ accounting policies. As a result of the review, management of the Company did not identify any differences that would have a material impact on the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information. As a result, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information does not assume any differences in accounting policies.

 

Adjustments to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information

 

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared to illustrate the effect of the Business Combination and has been prepared for informational purposes only.

 

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X as amended by the final rule, Release No. 33-10786 “Amendments to Financial Disclosures about Acquired and Disposed Businesses” to depict the Transaction Accounting Adjustments and present the Management’s Adjustments. DMY has elected not to present Management’s Adjustments and is only presenting Transaction Accounting Adjustments in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information. The historical financial statements have been adjusted in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information to include all necessary Transaction Accounting Adjustments pursuant to Article 11 of Regulation S-X, including those that are not expected to have a continuing impact.

 

The audited historical financial statements have been adjusted in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information to give pro forma effect to Transaction Accounting Adjustments that reflect the accounting for the transaction under GAAP. Horizon and DMY have not had any historical relationship prior to the Business Combination. Accordingly, no pro forma adjustments were required to eliminate activities between the companies.

 

The pro forma combined statements of operations do not reflect a provision for income taxes or any amounts that would have resulted had the Company filed consolidated income tax returns during the periods presented. The pro forma condensed combined balance sheet does not reflect the deferred taxes of the Company as a result of the Business Combination. Since it is likely that the Company will record a valuation allowance against the total U.S. and state deferred tax assets given the net operating losses as the recoverability of the tax assets is uncertain, the tax provision is zero.

 

The pro forma basic and diluted earnings per share amounts presented in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations are based upon the number of the Company Shares outstanding, assuming the Business Combination occurred on January 1, 2025.

 

Summary Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Statement of Operations Data for the Year Ended December 31, 2025    
Net loss  S$(56,338,192)
Weighted average shares outstanding – basic and diluted(1)   51,578,135 
Basic and diluted net loss per share  S$(1.09)

 

(1) For the purposes of calculating diluted earnings per share, all the 3,159,500 shares underlying the DMY Public Warrants, the 2,884,660 shares underlying the DMY Private Warrants, and the 2,618,161, shares underlying the Horizon Options (reflecting an increase of 766,451 from the date of the Business Combination Agreement for issuances of Horizon Options to new employees) should have been assumed to have been exercised. However, since this results in anti-dilution, the effect of such exercise was not included in calculation of diluted loss per share.

 

64

 

 

USE OF PROCEEDS

 

We will receive proceeds of up to an aggregate of US$69,507,840 from the exercise of the Warrants if all of the Warrants are exercised for cash. We expect to use the net proceeds from the exercise of Warrants for general corporate purposes. There is no assurance that the holders of the Warrants will elect to exercise any or all of such Warrants or that they will exercise any or all of them for cash. The amount of cash we would receive from the exercise of the Warrants will decrease to the extent that Warrants are exercised on a cashless basis.

 

We will not receive any proceeds from any sale of the securities registered hereby by the Selling Securityholders. With respect to the registration of the securities being offered by the Selling Securityholders, the Selling Securityholders will pay any underwriting discounts and commissions incurred by them in disposing of such securities, and fees and expenses of legal counsel representing the Selling Securityholders. We have borne all other costs, fees and expenses incurred in effecting the registration of the Registered Securities, such as registration and filing fees and fees of our counsel and our independent registered public accountants.

 

65

 

 

DIVIDEND POLICY

 

We have never declared or paid any cash dividends. We currently have not adopted a dividend policy with respect to future dividends and we do not have any present plan to pay any dividends on our Company Shares in the foreseeable future after this offering. We currently intend to retain most, if not all, of our available funds and any future earnings to operate and expand our business.

 

Any future determination relating to our dividend policy will be made at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend on then existing conditions, including our financial condition, results of operations, contractual restrictions (including in the agreements governing our credit facilities or other debt instruments), capital requirements, business prospects and other factors our board of directors may deem relevant.

 

While we do not have any present plan to pay any dividends on our ordinary shares in the foreseeable future after this offering, we may, in the future, by ordinary resolution, declare dividends at a general meeting of our shareholders, but no dividend shall be payable except out of our profits available for distribution, as derived from the standalone audited financial statements of our company and not from our audited consolidated financial statements. The amount of any such dividend shall not exceed the amount recommended by our board of directors. Subject to our constitution and in accordance with the Singapore Companies Act, our board of directors may, without the approval of our shareholders, declare and pay interim dividends but any final dividends we declare must be approved by an ordinary resolution at a general meeting of our shareholders. We are a holding company with no material operations of our own. We conduct our operations primarily through our subsidiaries. As a result, our ability to pay dividends depends upon dividends paid by our subsidiaries. Regulations in certain markets where we utilize dividend payments may restrict the ability of our subsidiaries to pay dividends to us.

On March 19, 2026, the Company consummated the previously announced Business Combination with DMY, pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement by and among DMY, the Company, Merger Sub 1, the Merger Sub 2, and Horizon. See Explanatory Note.

 

Business Combination with DMY 

 

On March 19, 2026, Company consummated the previously announced business combination with DMY, pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement by and among DMY, the Company, Merger Sub 1, Merger Sub 2, and Horizon.

 

Upon the Amalgamation Effective Time, the Amalgamation occurred, with Horizon surviving the Amalgamation as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and the outstanding shares of Horizon being converted into the right to receive shares of the Company’s Company Class A Shares or the right to receive shares of the Company’s Company Class B Shares, as the case may be. Subsequent to the Amalgamation, the Merger occurred, with DMY surviving the Merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and the outstanding securities of DMY being converted into the right to receive Company Class A Shares and/or Company Warrants of the Company.

 

Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, the aggregate Merger Consideration was paid at the Closing. 

 

As a result of the Business Combination, (a) each issued and outstanding Horizon Ordinary Shares was automatically converted into the right to receive a number of Company Shares (as defined below) equal to the Exchange Ratio, on the terms and subject to the conditions of the Business Combination Agreement (b) the shares of Horizon that were held by Joseph Fitzsimons, the Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Horizon and the Company, that were issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Amalgamation Effective Time were cancelled and converted into the right to receive such number of Company Class B Shares equal to the Exchange Ratio and in accordance with the Business Combination Agreement, with each such Company Class B Ordinary Share entitling each holder thereof to three (3) votes for each Company Class B Ordinary Share held (c) each SAFE was canceled and automatically deemed represent the right to receive a number of Company Class A Shares equal to the Exchange Ratio multiplied by the number of Horizon ordinary shares (on an as-converted basis) subject to such SAFE, and (d) each outstanding and unexercised Horizon Option became a Company Option containing the same terms, conditions, vesting and other provisions as are currently applicable to such Horizon Options, provided that each Company Option are exercisable for the number of Company Class A Shares equal to the Exchange Ratio multiplied by the number of Horizon Ordinary Shares subject to the Horizon Option as of immediately prior to the Amalgamation Effective Time, rounded down to the nearest whole share, at an exercise price equal to the per share exercise price of the Horizon Option divided by the Exchange Ratio, rounded up to the nearest whole cent.

 

After the completion of the Amalgamation and prior to the Merger, (1) DMY effected the redemption of the shares of the DMY Class A Shares, initially issued as part of the Public Shares that were submitted for redemption and not withdrawn, (2) each outstanding share of DMY Class B Shares underwent the Class B Share Conversion, and (3) each DMY Unit underwent the Unit Separation and the holder of each DMY Unit was deemed to hold one DMY Class A Share and one-half of one DMY Public Warrants.

 

At the effective time of the Merger, (a) each outstanding DMY Class A Share (excluding any Public Shares which were redeemed) were automatically converted into the right to receive one Company Class A Ordinary Share, (b) each outstanding whole DMY Public Warrant (including DMY Public Warrants issued upon the Unit Separation) were assumed by the Company and became Company Public Warrants, and (c) each outstanding DMY Private Warrants was assumed by the Company and became Company Private Warrants.

 

On December 4, 2025 and March 6, 2026, the Company entered into the “PIPE Subscription Agreements” with DMY, Horizon and the PIPE Investors, pursuant to which, among other things, the PIPE Investors agreed to subscribe for and purchase, and the Company agreed to the PIPE Private Placement in connection with a financing effort related to the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement. The PIPE Private Placement was consummated simultaneously with the closing of the Business Combination. Further, on March 6, 2026, DMY, the Company and Horizon offered to each PIPE Investor the option to elect to satisfy their PIPE Investment by purchasing Open-Market Purchase Shares no later than one (1) Business Day prior to the redemption deadline for the Special Meeting, which purchases would result in a Reduction Right (as defined below).

 

On March 20, 2026, the Company Class A Shares and Company Public Warrants commenced trading on Nasdaq under the symbols “HQ” and “HQWWW,” respectively.

Additional Agreements in connection with the Business Combination 

 

Lock-up Agreements

 

Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, the Holders of Founder Shares, and the holders of Horizon’s capital stock (the “Lock-Up Securityholders”) entered into lock-up agreements with the Company (the “Lock-Up Agreement”), pursuant to which certain of the Company Shares held by the Lock-Up Security Holders (the “Lock-Up Shares”) are subject to lock-up during the period immediately following the Closing until the earlier of (i) the date that is 24 months after the Closing and (ii) the date on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, capital share exchange, reorganization or other similar transaction that results in all of the Company’s shareholders having the right to exchange their Company Shares for cash, securities, or other property (the “Shares Lock-Up Period”) and the Company Warrants and underlying Company Shares will be subject to lock-up during the period immediately following the Closing Date until the date that is 30 days after the Closing (the “Warrants Lock-Up Period”). Prior to the Closing, the Company, Horizon, and DMY agreed to waive the lock-up restrictions on approximately 9.0% of the Company Class A Shares held by each non-affiliate shareholders. An aggregate of approximately 39,627,691 million Lock-up Shares are subject to the Share Lock-Up Period, representing approximately 76.9% of the total issued and outstanding Company Shares. An aggregate of 2,884,660 Sponsor Warrants, and the underlying 2,884,660 Company Class A Shares issuable upon the exercise of the Sponsor Warrants, are subject to the Warrants Lock-Up Period, representing approximately 47.7% of the issued and outstanding Company Warrants. The form of Lock-Up Agreement is attached as Exhibit 10.1 to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part.

 

PIPE Subscription Agreements with PIPE Investors

 

On December 4, 2025, DMY, the Company, and Horizon entered into PIPE Subscription Agreements with the PIPE Investors, pursuant to which the Company has agreed to issue and sell, and the PIPE Investors agreed to subscribe for and purchase, an aggregate of $110,412,500 of Company Class A Shares (the “PIPE Shares”), at a per share price equal to the Redemption Price. At the time of the Business Combination, the Redemption Price was $11.82.

 

On March 6, 2026, DMY, the Company, and Horizon entered into additional PIPE Subscription Agreements with additional PIPE Investors, pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue and sell, and the additional PIPE Investors agreed to subscribe for and purchase an additional $1,450,000 of PIPE Shares, at a per share price equal to the Redemption Price. The additional proceeds include a $1,000,000 investment by Penchant Family Holdings LLC, an entity controlled by Penchant Holdings, Inc., its Managing Member, of which Danielle Lambert serves as its President. Ms. Lambert is a director of the Company.

 

Further, on March 6, 2026, DMY, the Company and Horizon offered to each PIPE Investor the option to elect to satisfy their purchase obligation by purchasing Open-Market Purchase Shares no later than one (1) Business Day prior to the redemption deadline for the Special Meeting. The use of either Currently Owned Shares and/or Open-Market Purchase Shares would reduce the number of PIPE Shares that such PIPE Investor is obligated to purchase pursuant to the Subscription Agreement on a one-for-one basis (the “Reduction Right”). An aggregate of 267,807 Open Market Purchase Shares were purchased by a total of three investors (the “Reduced Investors”). “Currently Owned Shares” means shares of DMY Class A Shares the PIPE Investor or its affiliates beneficially own as of March 9, 2026. “Open-Market Purchase Shares” means DMY Class A Shares purchased by the PIPE Investor for its own account pursuant to open-market transactions with third parties at a per share price less than the Redemption Price.

 

The Reduction Right was subject to the Reduced Investors having agreed (i) not to sell or otherwise transfer such Open-Market Purchase Shares prior to the consummation of the Business Combination, (ii) not to vote any Open-Market Purchase Shares in favor of approving the Business Combination and instead submit a proxy abstaining from voting thereon, and (iii) to the extent it has the right to have any of its Open-Market Purchase Shares redeemed for cash in connection with the consummation of the Business Combination, not to exercise any such redemption rights (collectively, the “Open-Market Purchase Reduction Conditions”). With respect to the Currently Owned Shares, the Reduction Right is subject to the PIPE Investors having agreed to, and causing their affiliates to: (i) not sell or otherwise transfer such Currently Owned Shares prior to the consummation of the Business Combination; (ii) vote all Currently Owned Shares in favor of approving the Business Combination or any extension of DMY; and (iii) to the extent it has the right to have any of its Currently Owned Shares redeemed for cash in connection with the consummation of the Business Combination or in connection with any extension of DMY, not exercise any such redemption rights (the “Currently Owned Shares Reduction Conditions”). The Reduced Investors were required to deliver a certificate to DMY, the Company and Horizon no later than one Business Days prior to the Redemption Deadline certifying that such PIPE Investor has and will comply with the Open-Market Purchase Reduction Conditions, and Currently Owned Shares Reduction Conditions, among other things. The terms of the Reduction Right are set forth in an amendment to the PIPE Subscription Agreement (the “PIPE Amendment”), a form of which is included as Exhibit 4.4 to this prospectus.

 

The PIPE Private Placement closed substantially concurrently with the closing of the Business Combination. Pursuant to the PIPE Subscription Agreements, the Company has also agreed to file with the SEC (at the Company’s sole cost and expense), within 15 business days after the consummation of the PIPE Private Placement (such deadline subject to extension in the event of SEC closures or the unavailability of required financial statements), a registration statement registering the resale of the PIPE Shares, and to use its commercially reasonable efforts to have the registration statement declared effective as soon as practicable after the filing thereof.

In connection with its PIPE Subscription Agreement, the Company, DMY, Horizon and IonQ, Inc. (“IonQ”), one of the PIPE Investors, entered into the IonQ side letter (the “IonQ Side Letter”), which includes, among other things that: (i) IonQ will have a right to select one initial director of the Company to serve on the Company’s Board of directors (the “Board”) after the Closing who shall (i) qualify as an independent director under Nasdaq rules, (ii) be unaffiliated with IonQ and (iii) be subject to Horizon’s, the Company’s, and DMY’s approval; (ii) for so long as IonQ holds not less than 5% of the Company’s outstanding voting securities, IonQ will have the right to nominate one director to serve on the Company’s Board who shall (x) qualify as an independent director under Nasdaq rules, (y) be unaffiliated with IonQ and (z) be subject to the Company’s approval; (iii) IonQ will enter into a lock-up agreement with the Company, in substantially the same form as the lock-up agreement included as Exhibit 10.1 to this prospectus, pursuant to which IonQ will agree not to transfer (except for certain permitted transfers as set forth therein) the PIPE Shares until the earlier of 18 months after the Closing and the Shares Lock-Up Period; (iv) the closing of the IonQ PIPE Subscription Agreement will be conditioned on the entry into a commercial agreement by the parties relating to the purchase by the Company or Horizon of quantum computing hardware from IonQ; and (v) subject to certain exceptions, for so long as IonQ holds not less than 5% of the Company’s outstanding voting securities, IonQ shall have a right to be notified of (x) the Company’s receipt of an offer to acquire 5% or more of its outstanding voting securities or assets and (y) terms of any proposed sale of securities of the Company in which the aggregate proceeds are expected to equal or exceed $10 million. On March 9, 2026, the Company, DMY, Horizon and IonQ agreed to amend the IonQ Side Letter (the “IonQ Amendment”) to waive the entrance into a commercial agreement, as described in (iv) above, as a condition of the IonQ Side Letter. Furthermore, on March 11, 2026, the Company, DMY, Horizon and IonQ agreed to waive the right to select a director, as described in (i) above, as a condition of closing. For the purposes of clarity IonQ have retained the right to propose director nominees as described in (ii) above. The The IonQ Side Letter and the IonQ Amendment are attached as Exhibits 10.13 and 10.14, respectively, to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part.

 

IonQ Quantum Systems Agreement

 

On March 31, 2026, the Company entered into a Quantum Systems Agreement (the “IonQ Agreement”) with IonQ. The IonQ Agreement governs a strategic, long-term relationship under which IonQ will design, procure, install, and support a dedicated trapped-ion quantum computing system for the Company and provide associated compute, consulting, training, and technical support services, primarily on an on-site and exclusive basis. Pursuant to the IonQ Agreement, IonQ will procure, construct, install, and verify a trapped-ion quantum computing system meeting specified performance benchmarks and install it in a data center designated and operated by the Company. Upon acceptance, title to the physical system transfers to the Company, with IonQ providing maintenance, technical support, quarterly technical reports, and consulting and training services. Both the Company and IonQ shall retain ownership of their respective intellectual property rights, including their own technology and related software. The Company shall own all inputs and computation results, while IonQ shall retain ownership of the IonQ technology and related software specifically licensed under the IonQ Agreement only, granting the Company limited licenses for use during the term. The total consideration to be paid by the Company under the initial statement of work is US$35 million. The Company may choose to exercise a one-year extension for additional consideration.

ENFORCEABILITY OF CIVIL LIABILITIES AND AGENT FOR SERVICE OF PROCESS IN THE UNITED STATES

 

The Company is incorporated under the laws of the Republic of Singapore, and certain of its officers and directors are residents outside the U.S. In addition, a significant portion of its operations and business is conducted, and a substantial portion of its assets are located, outside the U.S.

 

Although the Company is incorporated outside the U.S., it has agreed to accept service of process in the U.S. through Puglisi & Associates, its agent designated for that purpose, located at 850 Library Avenue, Suite 204, Newark, DE 19711. Nevertheless, since a substantial portion of the assets owned by the Company are located outside the U.S., any judgment obtained in the U.S. against the Company may not be collectible within the U.S.

 

An investor may or may not be able to commence an original action against the Company or its directors or officers, or any person, before the courts outside the U.S. to enforce liabilities under U.S. federal securities laws, depending on the nature of the action.

 

There is no treaty between the U.S. and Singapore providing for the reciprocal recognition and enforcement of judgments in civil and commercial matters and a final judgment for the payment of money rendered by any federal or state court in the U.S. based on civil liability, whether or not predicated solely upon the federal securities laws, would, therefore, not be automatically enforceable in Singapore. In making a determination as to enforceability of a foreign judgment, the Singapore courts need to be satisfied that the foreign judgment was final and conclusive and on the merits of the case, given by a court of law of competent jurisdiction, and was expressed to be for a fixed sum of money. In general, a foreign judgment would be enforceable in Singapore unless procured by fraud, or if the proceedings in which such judgments were obtained were not conducted in accordance with principles of natural justice, or if the enforcement thereof would be contrary to the public policy of Singapore, or if the judgment would conflict with earlier judgments from Singapore or earlier foreign judgments recognized in Singapore, or if the judgment would amount to the direct or indirect enforcement of foreign penal, revenue or other public laws.

 

Civil liability provisions of the federal and state securities law of the U.S. permit the award of punitive damages against the Company and its directors and officers. The Singapore courts do not allow the enforcement of foreign judgments which amount to the direct or indirect enforcement of foreign penal, revenue or other public laws. It is uncertain as to whether a judgment of the courts of the U.S. awarding such punitive damages would be regarded by the Singapore courts as being pursuant to foreign, penal, revenue or other public laws. Such determination has yet to be conclusively made by a Singapore court in a reported decision.

 

In addition, holders of book entry interests in Company Shares will be required to be registered as shareholders in its register of members in order to have standing to bring a shareholder suit and, if successful, to enforce a foreign judgment against the Company, its directors or its executive officers in the Singapore courts, subject to applicable Singapore laws. A holder of book entry interests in Company Shares may become the Company’s registered shareholder by exchanging its interest in Company Shares for certificated ordinary shares and being registered in the Company’s register of members. The administrative process of becoming a registered shareholder could result in delays prejudicial to any legal proceeding or enforcement action.

BUSINESS

 

Unless the context requires otherwise, references in this section to “the Company,” “Horizon,” “we,” “our” or “us” refer to Horizon Quantum Holdings Ltd., a Singapore public company limited by shares, and its consolidated subsidiaries.

 

Overview

 

Horizon is building software infrastructure to make quantum computers accessible to commercial enterprises and hardware providers. By bridging the gap between today’s hardware and tomorrow’s applications, Horizon seeks to equip developers, researchers, and enterprises with the quantum software infrastructure needed to solve real-world problems.

 

To do this, Horizon is following an ambitious plan to create development tools that can automatically accelerate code written for conventional computers on quantum computers. With this differentiated approach, Horizon is developing methods to generate quantum-accelerated solutions — exploiting quantum effects such as superposition and entanglement — from legacy code and conventional software.

 

Today, Horizon’s Triple Alpha software is an integrated development environment that gives users access to Horizon’s development, deployment, and execution infrastructure. It enables developers to create sophisticated, portable, hardware-agnostic quantum programs. Users can code at multiple abstraction levels, compile and optimize programs across many real quantum computers and simulators, and deploy applications as Application Programming Interfaces (“APIs”). Horizon has key collaborative relationships with leading hardware providers including Alice & Bob, Oxford Quantum Circuits Ltd., QuEra Computing Inc., and Rigetti Computing, Inc. (“Rigetti”) (see “Business  Business Model — Hardware Vendors”).

 

Triple Alpha is currently in early access with select vendors. Horizon has received inbound interest in early access requests from more than 40 major corporations, 90 universities, 13 quantum software companies, and 18 national labs, government agencies and research organizations.

 

Horizon is still in the early stages of scaling its business. Since its inception, Horizon has incurred operating losses. Its ability to generate revenue sufficient to achieve profitability will depend heavily on the further development and commercialization of quantum computers and their software infrastructure.

 

The Quantum Software Opportunity

 

Since its emergence in the 1950s, conventional computing has dramatically altered the way humans live, work, and do business. As powerful as conventional computers have become, there are still many calculations they can’t perform.

 

Unlike conventional computers, which process information as 0s or 1s, quantum computers store and process information as quantum states. Quantum computers use qubits — which can exist simultaneously in a superposition of both 0 and 1. Qubits in superposition can explore different branches of a computation, and quantum computers can use quantum interference to extract information from that superposition to accelerate certain calculations.

 

71

 

 

Because of these capabilities, quantum computers have the potential to tackle problems that have long been intractable for conventional computers, such as simulating complex physical systems (from molecular dynamics to fluid flow), accelerating training and inference in machine learning, and solving hard optimization problems across many industries.

 

For decades, conventional computers improved because integrated circuits followed Moore’s Law: the number of transistors on a chip doubled about every two years, resulting in exponential growth. However, in recent years, this progress has begun to hit physical limits, with the rate of improvement in important performance metrics, such as clock speed and single thread performance, slowing or stopping entirely.

 

Meanwhile, the power of quantum computers is predicted to grow double exponentially with time — a phenomenon known as Neven’s Law. The number of qubits in quantum computers is doubling regularly, more frequently than transistors doubled in classical computing, but for each incremental qubit, quantum processors become up to twice as hard to simulate. As qubits scale and become more reliable, classical simulation moves out of reach.

 

After years of anticipation, recent advances at the quantum hardware level suggest that quantum advantage — the point at which quantum computing’s capabilities begin to surpass those of conventional computing — is drawing near. In late 2024, multi-round quantum error correction was convincingly demonstrated for the first time, paving the way for reliable quantum computers. The resources needed to produce error-free logical qubits have fallen by orders of magnitude in recent years, and multiple demonstrations have shown that classical computers can no longer easily simulate quantum ones. The Global Risk Institute’s 2024 report on the state of quantum found that most experts surveyed expect useful commercial applications for quantum computers to emerge in the next three to five years.

 

But hardware is only half the battle. Every computer needs software to be effective, and classical code doesn’t run on quantum machines.

 

While the ability to exploit quantum effects gives quantum computers their power, it also makes constructing quantum algorithms especially difficult. To achieve an advantage over classical computation, quantum algorithms must harness interference between different branches in a quantum superposition. Less than a few hundred specialists worldwide have demonstrated the ability to create new quantum algorithms. Without a deep knowledge of quantum mechanics, most developers and domain experts are forced to shoehorn their problems into a limited set of known algorithms rather than create new ones specific to their use case.

 

Horizon believes that the industry’s recent breakthroughs have fundamentally changed the commercial trajectory for quantum computers. However, a looming question remains: if every company had access to fault-tolerant quantum computers tomorrow, who would program them?

 

Horizon believes that programming quantum computers should be as accessible and straightforward as programming conventional ones. The company is pursuing the goal of making quantum computing accessible to every software developer — regardless of quantum expertise — to enable the widespread, commercial adoption of quantum computing. In pursuit of this goal, Horizon has developed techniques for automatically constructing quantum accelerated applications based on code written for conventional computers and has developed software infrastructure to close the gap between classical and quantum software development.

 

Triple Alpha, Horizon’s integrated development environment, aims to set the gold standard for developing and deploying applications on quantum computers. Triple Alpha contains proprietary languages and a compiler, which allow developers to create sophisticated applications that make use of advanced features such as full control flow and dynamic memory allocation in quantum programs, while leveraging Horizon’s deployment and execution infrastructure to run these programs on today’s quantum computers. See “—Horizon’s Technology.”

Horizon believes that the recent pace of hardware advancement suggests that software development will become the limiting factor for real-world applications of quantum advantage. As quantum computing reaches an inflection point, Horizon believes its product development and go-to-market roadmap can deliver the software infrastructure needed to realize practical quantum advantage. While many current quantum software development tools are locked to specific hardware or limited to expressing only static circuits, Horizon expects that its hardware-agnostic approach will allow users to transfer skills and applications across machines, regardless of the vendor or underlying modality, while still taking advantage of advanced capabilities such as dynamic circuits and pulse-level control.

  

Technology Approach

 

The Applications Bottleneck: Three Factors Limiting Quantum Software Development

 

Three interrelated challenges are limiting quantum software development.

 

  Algorithm design — The difficulty of writing quantum algorithms is a major barrier. Less than a few hundred specialists worldwide have the quantum expertise to create them. Translating real-world problems into quantum code requires an even rarer combination of skills: deep understanding of the intricacies of both quantum algorithms and the relevant application domain, such as chemistry or finance, which is possessed by only a handful of professionals worldwide.

 

  Hardware abstraction — The hardware landscape is diverse and highly fragmented. Each competing platform has its own strengths, limitations, and instruction sets, making it extremely difficult to write programs that run efficiently on multiple devices without substantial rewriting.

 

  Programming abstraction — Most available quantum software development tools require a low-level, gate-by-gate programming approach. The absence of high-level abstractions limits developers’ ability to focus on the computational problem itself, forcing them instead to grapple with the mechanics of circuit construction and quantum gates. This complexity also prevents many classical programmers from engaging with the technology as it emerges.

 

Together, these factors form an applications bottleneck — one that’s poised to slow the commercial adoption of quantum computing by constraining the development of practical, scalable software.

 

Horizon’s Approach to Algorithm Design

 

Today, practitioners generally take two broad approaches to constructing quantum algorithms.

 

The first approach focuses on identifying structures within a problem that a quantum computer can exploit using quantum interference, thereby producing a solution. This method requires carefully analyzing the problem, uncovering these structures and looking for opportunities to exploit known techniques, such as the quantum Fourier transform, to extract enough useful information to reveal a solution with limited classical computation. This approach requires deep expertise but often produces algorithms that are relatively straightforward to analyze, usually making it clear whether these algorithms offer an advantage over their classical counterparts. Well-known examples include Shor’s algorithm for factoring and Grover’s algorithm for unstructured search.

 

73

 

 

The second approach treats a quantum circuit as a flexible template with adjustable parameters. It uses repeated evaluations of the circuit and classical optimization to find parameter values that achieve the desired outcome. In essence, this amounts to guessing a family of circuits that might contain a circuit capable of solving the problem, then using classical optimization techniques, such as stochastic gradient descent, to tune its parameters to find a solution. Prominent examples of algorithms of this kind include the variational quantum eigensolver (VQE), the quantum approximate optimization algorithm (QAOA), and various variational quantum machine learning approaches. This approach is appealing because it is relatively straightforward to implement on cloud-based quantum computers, and it produces usable results for small problems across many tasks. However, variational algorithms are difficult to analyze, and they provide few guarantees about efficiency or scalability — factors which are key to realizing quantum advantage. They also tend to consume far more compute time than more structured, single-shot algorithms, though they are typically more robust to noise.

 

Horizon takes a different approach to constructing quantum algorithms. The company views algorithm construction as a compilation problem, so rather than attempting to construct algorithms manually for specific problems, it has developed techniques to enable the automatic construction of quantum algorithms from code written for conventional computers. These techniques include decomposing loops and control-flow into simple primitives that can be recognized and replaced with more efficient quantum subroutines and replacing basic algorithms and data structures with more efficient quantum implementations.

 

With this approach, Horizon aims to make quantum acceleration broadly applicable wherever a classical program exists or can be written, eliminating the need for a hand-crafted quantum algorithm for each new problem. Because some classical programs simply cannot be improved using quantum techniques, this approach is not guaranteed to speed up every program. However, the same is true for quantum algorithm design in general.

 

Horizon’s Approach to Hardware Abstraction

 

The evolution of programming tools developed by hardware vendors have tended to follow a common pattern. Their languages and frameworks have exposed only basic features initially, which are then expanded over time as a manufacturer adds new device capabilities. While this approach lets developers access new features as they become available, the resulting software infrastructure often evolves unevenly. As a result, developers face a moving target when writing software intended to run on future machines, which means that they can generally only begin development work for a future system once its hardware becomes available. This pattern slows down the progress of quantum computing by forcing hardware and software to develop sequentially rather than allowing for parallel development.

 

Most existing quantum programming frameworks are not built with hardware portability — the ability to run the same quantum program on different types of machines — in mind. Quantum programming approaches that do prioritize portability typically restrict programmers to static, gate-level quantum circuits as a means of maximizing compatibility and reach across platforms. Because static circuit evaluation is a minimum capability requirement supported by most hardware providers, this approach makes it possible to run programs on a relatively wide range of systems. However, the trade-off is limited access to hardware-specific features that differ across systems. Different systems introduce new capabilities — such as control flow and pulse-level control — at different times and in no set order. Because of the diversity of quantum hardware becoming available, fully capturing all these features while maintaining code portability has not yet been possible. As a result, portable programming approaches frequently omit features such as dynamic control, concurrent classical processing, fine-grained timing, and low-level pulse interaction, even though some devices already support them.

 

Horizon takes a different approach to portability and hardware abstraction. Its programming languages target an idealized abstract machine that pairs a quantum processing unit (QPU) with a classical control computer capable of issuing instructions, receiving results, keeping time, and communicating with external systems. Horizon’s languages (Beryllium, Helium, and Hydrogen) target this model. Its execution infrastructure then maps these programs onto current hardware by orchestrating multiple runs and using post-selection, segmentation, and host-side control to emulate more advanced behavior, including general control flow, classical processing, and networking. This software bridge adds some overhead in terms of the number of shots and latency, but it allows developers to express programs and protocols beyond what today’s hardware directly supports while obtaining results on today’s systems. This approach allows developers to program quantum computers in a flexible, portable, and future-proof way. In effect, it lets them focus on programming an ideal quantum computer rather than requiring that they spend their attention managing the details and limitations of individual devices.

 

74

 

 

Horizon’s Approach to Programming Abstraction

 

The current state of quantum programming is similar to the early days of classical computing. Most tools still require developers to build quantum circuits gate by gate, sometimes making use of libraries or Python generators. Complete, end-to-end workflows — from describing a problem at a high level to running it on hardware — mostly exist only within specific vendor ecosystems and are often not portable. As a result, developers spend much of their time dealing with the mechanics of circuit construction instead of focusing on the intent of the program.

 

This situation is compounded by inconsistent support for capabilities expected in future systems, such as general control flow, evaluation of classical functions over measurement results, and dynamic memory management. Some platforms already offer a subset of these features, like dynamic circuits/conditionals or selective pulse/timing access, but the level of support varies between providers.

 

By adding in abstraction layer by layer, Horizon’s software infrastructure is designed to make quantum programming more accessible. At its base is Hydrogen, a portable, assembly-like language that supports general control flow and concurrent classical computation. It captures core operations expected of an idealized, future quantum computer. Above Hydrogen sits Helium, a BASIC-like language that retains these capabilities while adding higher-level features, including dynamic memory allocation and automatic generation of quantum circuits from C/C++.

 

Beryllium, Horizon’s object-oriented programming language, sits above Helium. Horizon previewed Beryllium in December 2025 and anticipates making the language available to Triple Alpha’s early access users in the first half of 2026.

 

With the introduction of object-oriented quantum programming — native quantum classes, functions, and libraries — Beryllium is expected to allow developers to define reusable quantum data types analogous to those in modern classical languages by letting programmers define what quantum algorithms should do without requiring that they worry about repeated low-level details, thereby empowering them to focus on high-level operations. With Beryllium, Horizon expects that Triple Alpha users will be able to develop and implement quantum algorithms more efficiently, making use of reusable components and data structures.

 

Beryllium prioritizes reusability and modularity, making it easier for new programs to draw from a growing library of components. In mature software ecosystems, code modularity produces a well-documented network effect: developers create libraries, which in turn lower the effort required to develop new applications, thereby attracting more developers.

 

Horizon’s layered approach to quantum programming seeks to enable developers to work at their preferred level of abstraction: those working on algorithm design can start at a higher level compared to those focused on device characterization. Across these layers, each language supports user-defined instruction sets with both gate- and pulse-level control. This design lets teams leverage higher-level abstractions while still expressing low-level behavior — whether reasoning about abstract quantum information processing or engaging directly with the physics of specific processors.

 

Horizon is developing these layers incrementally to seek to provide a stable platform for future integration with its quantum algorithm synthesis techniques, with the ultimate goal of enabling developers to write complete quantum programs using familiar classical languages.

 

75

 

 

Cloud-first Approach

 

Because quantum computers are incredibly sensitive, complex machines requiring highly specialized environments, they are expensive to build, difficult to maintain, and demand a significant amount of expertise to operate. As a result, most quantum computers are not sold for on-premises use; instead, they are housed in secure, controlled facilities and accessed remotely by developers and researchers through the cloud. This model effectively allows anyone with an internet connection to run quantum algorithms, without the prohibitive cost and complexity of owning the hardware themselves.

 

Horizon seeks to enable developers to write, compile, and deploy quantum programs to a variety of remote quantum processors and simulators without needing to own or manage the underlying hardware. The company has taken a cloud-first approach, where the end point of software development is a deployed web API that manages the execution of the quantum program. This approach is intended to allow developers to seamlessly integrate their quantum programs with a wide range of classical software technologies, with those programs being hosted and served through Horizon’s infrastructure.

 

Horizon also operates its own hardware testbed. Offering both tools and hardware as a service simplifies the user experience, enables seamless deployment, and ensures that Horizon’s platform remains hardware-agnostic and scalable, empowering a broad base of developers to engage with quantum computing.

 

Horizon’s Technology

 

Horizon is designing tools that aim to set a new standard for quantum software development. The company’s core approach has been to develop the software infrastructure for the development, deployment, and execution of quantum programs, with significant technological breakthroughs achieved in the development and execution layers.

 

Development Infrastructure

 

Triple Alpha, Horizon’s integrated development environment, simplifies the process of creating quantum programs by enabling developers to code at various levels of abstraction, using Horizon’s proprietary languages. Most traditional quantum programming frameworks constrain programmers to working with static circuits, which makes algorithm design difficult, limiting what developers can express. Triple Alpha removes this constraint with its Turing-complete languages.

 

Beryllium is an object-oriented language that is expected to allow developers to use simple classical and quantum building blocks to progressively create richer, higher-level structures by reusing and extending what they have already defined. With Beryllium, developers can think in terms of information structure rather than qubits and low-level processing details. By making use of reusable components and data structures, Horizon believes that developers will able to focus on what quantum algorithms should do without needing to worry about repeated low-level details, which enables more efficient development and implementation of quantum algorithms.

 

By shifting the focus from how information is physically represented and processed in a quantum computer to how it can be structured and transformed, Beryllium is designed to raise the level of abstraction, reducing the need to manage quantum processing directly and making quantum software development more accessible to programmers without deep quantum expertise.

 

Triple Alpha compiles Beryllium to Helium. Helium is a BASIC-like language that simplifies the development of complex quantum programs by allowing classical and quantum operations to be expressed together in a single language. It introduces familiar control structures — loops, conditionals, subroutines — and supports concurrent classical/quantum flows. Because Helium is a Turing-complete language, developers can express algorithms of arbitrary complexity — including ones whose runtime can’t be determined in advance — unlocking a far broader class of quantum applications than traditional quantum programming framework.

 

76

 

 

Triple Alpha’s optimizing compiler then translates Helium down into Hydrogen, an assembly-level, architecture-agnostic language that can be further compiled to target specific quantum hardware. A portable, lower-level language, Hydrogen uses a structure of code blocks and conditional jumps to represent control flow constructs from Helium, such as “if” statements and “for” and “while” loops. Triple Alpha users can also work directly in Hydrogen, providing quantum computing experts with finer-grain control over the program structure.

 

Triple Alpha allows users to convert existing C and C++ functions directly into partial quantum circuits, making them available as callable subroutines within Helium. This eliminates the need to hand-design intricate circuits for the classical portions of quantum algorithms. The conversion of these functions into efficient quantum circuits means users can focus on error correction and quantum algorithm design without worrying about the minutiae of implementing functionality as reversible circuits or other gate-level concerns.

 

Once the program is in a low-level form, Triple Alpha’s program optimization engine applies peephole optimizations and other methods to simplify logic and remove redundant operations, refining circuits and performing gate sequences. It balances performance trade-offs to generate the most efficient implementation and optimizes the program for the target processor’s topology and instruction set. It outputs code in formats readable by different systems, such as QUA, OpenPulse, or QASM.

 

Contemporary quantum processors differ widely in instruction sets, so the program optimization engine converts code written in terms of a user-defined instruction set into the native instruction set of the target processor, in a noise-aware manner that respects the processor’s coupling constraints. Triple Alpha also quantifies the resources — such as gate count and qubit usage — required to run programs.

 

Horizon has developed methods to emulate the control flow and other advanced features expressible in Hydrogen on today’s quantum processors using a hybrid classical/quantum approach. As a result, developers can execute programs on almost any quantum hardware, even if the device itself lacks native support for dynamic control. The result is optimized quantum applications that can run across hardware platforms without rewriting, ensuring longevity of code as the hardware landscape evolves.

 

Triple Alpha gives users access to pulse-level control, enabling developers to directly manipulate the pulses sent to the quantum processor from control systems. Users who want to target specific processors with fine-grain control over their quantum program can also code at the hardware level. At this level, users can write code in Hydrogen or in system-specific languages and frameworks, such as QASM or Quil. This non portable code is customized for constraints (number of qubits, connectivity graph, etc.) specific to the target processor, and users can still take advantage of Horizon’s deployment infrastructure.

 

Horizon is pursuing ambitious plans to make quantum programming much more accessible to developers with experience programming in classical languages. The company expects to complement its programming languages with deeper automation efforts in algorithm design. Horizon is pioneering a process called quantum algorithm synthesis, which aims to automatically accelerate code written in classical languages. This process works by automatically refactoring classical programs into a fixed set of algorithmic building blocks that can be recognized and replaced by more efficient implementations that exploit quantum processing. The company has previously demonstrated this approach on programs written in a common subset of Matlab/Octave and holds patents on the technology (see “— Intellectual Property”).

 

Building on the lessons learned from constructing Triple Alpha, Horizon plans to incorporate methods for algorithm synthesis into its compiler. The company’s ultimate objective in that regard is to develop a complete classical-to-quantum toolchain for major programming languages, with algorithm synthesis expected to emerge through the development of a new compiler layer. This layer would automatically generate quantum algorithms from conventional source code, preserving the exact function of the original program without requiring users to write any quantum-specific code.

 

This additional compiler layer would be designed to allow developers to program quantum computers in familiar classical languages — removing one of the greatest barriers to practical quantum computing.

Deployment Infrastructure

 

Horizon’s deployment infrastructure seeks to provide the bridge between quantum programs and front-end technologies. It follows design principles common in modern cloud infrastructure, providing a familiar framework for users. Once a quantum program has been compiled with Triple Alpha, it can be packaged and deployed as a web API. Through these deployed endpoints, users can send encoded inputs, interact with running programs, and retrieve outputs as the program is executed.

 

With Horizon’s deployment infrastructure, developers can integrate quantum functionality directly into other applications, whether through Python scripts, web interfaces, or even Excel macros, allowing developers to call and interact with quantum programs from familiar environments. Each deployed API includes authentication to ensure only authorized users can access or execute a program. The infrastructure also supports session management for deployed programs, maintaining isolated execution environments for multiple users or concurrent runs. This guarantees that one user’s interaction with a program does not interfere with another’s — a necessity for working in multi-user or collaborative settings.

 

Beyond deployment and access control, developers can manage program deployments and monitor usage within Triple Alpha. The API for a deployed quantum program allows users to control and oversee their runs, and it also allows classical applications to perform these same actions programmatically — starting, stopping, or canceling runs and monitoring real-time job status to track whether a task is queued, active, or has failed. Together, these features make Horizon’s deployment infrastructure a powerful and convenient tool for delivering quantum processing to end-user facing applications.

 

Horizon plans to extend its deployment infrastructure to provide developers with more granular control over program and resource management. These plans include refined access and budget controls, usage monitoring at the level of individual users and programs, and improved scheduling mechanisms for allocating access to constrained resources such as specific quantum computers. These enhancements will further strengthen Horizon’s ability to deliver secure, efficient, and scalable quantum workloads for organizations deploying quantum applications.

 

Execution Infrastructure

 

Horizon’s execution infrastructure can run programs containing loops and recursive functions, runtime user inputs, mid-circuit measurements, and even calls to classical code or networked processes, capabilities that remove many of the rigid constraints of traditional circuit-based programming approaches. Many of these advanced features are unavailable through other tools on contemporary hardware systems.

 

Conventional programs rely on constructs like “while” loops and recursive functions, running until a solution is found — or indefinitely, if one isn’t. They aren’t a simple list of sequential instructions, and their runtime can’t always be predetermined. However, most of today’s quantum hardware can only execute fixed-length quantum circuits — programs whose structures must be known in advance, with zero or limited native support for dynamic runtime control, such as loops, recursion, or concurrent classical computation.

 

Horizon’s execution infrastructure seeks to overcome this limitation with full control flow support, making it possible to execute complex programs on quantum devices that lack native support for general control flow. It extends the capabilities of quantum processors, enabling them to perform beyond their built-in limitations that prohibit runtime decisions.

 

Control flow in Hydrogen is expressed through blocks — like the nodes of a flow chart — each containing a list of instructions and ending in a halt, advance, or branch instruction. When the program reaches a branch point, it needs new information — a measurement result, a classical computation, or a user input — before deciding what to do next. Horizon’s execution infrastructure provides this missing information through full mid-circuit measurement support, mid-computational classical function support, and full mid-computation I/O support, enabling interactive quantum computation.

 

78

 

 

With mid-circuit measurement, the system can measure qubits while a computation is still running and immediately use those results to influence subsequent operations — a critical feature for quantum error correction and feedback-based protocols. Building on this capability, Horizon’s execution infrastructure provides full mid-computation classical function support, allowing measurement outcomes to be processed classically during runtime. Once measurements are obtained, they can be injected into classical functions and computed on a classical processor. Then, the execution infrastructure obtains the results, and the quantum program continues. The ability to trigger classical functions from quantum measurements within the same execution is a key differentiating capability to Horizon’s execution infrastructure.

 

Mid-computation I/O extends this interactivity to the network layer, allowing a program to communicate with external systems or users — sending intermediate results, requesting input, and pausing until a response is received — all while the program remains running. This design extends beyond traditional batch-style quantum execution, creating an interactive feedback loop that influences ongoing computation and enables interactive and adaptive quantum applications.

 

As part of execution management, Horizon’s infrastructure sources the information a program requires at each branch point — whether that data comes from a qubit measurement, a classical computation, or an external input. Once the needed information is obtained, execution continues following the appropriate branch. In the case of a measurement, the execution infrastructure performs the operation on hardware, records the outcome, and resumes the program using that result. When subsequent branches depend on earlier measurements, the system reruns the program with consistency checks to ensure earlier measurement outcomes match. When results diverge, the program restarts; when they agree, execution proceeds. This proprietary system makes it possible to implement complex control flow even on hardware that lacks native support for fast runtime decisions.

 

The execution infrastructure’s ability to perform classical computation during quantum execution enables dynamic memory management, giving quantum programs written in Helium the equivalent of the classical malloc() and free() functions. Unlike conventional circuits — where qubits can be pre-labeled and allocated before execution — programs with control flow require allocation on the fly. Triple Alpha users can signal when a qubit is no longer needed, allowing the system to release and repurpose it. At runtime, Horizon’s infrastructure manages this process automatically, determining which physical qubits should store information and tracking which qubits are free and which are in use. When a qubit is no longer needed, the system can release and repurpose it automatically. This on-the-fly allocation enables efficient use of limited hardware resources. By recycling qubits dynamically, programs can execute larger or more complex workloads without requiring additional physical qubits. While such memory management is standard in classical computing, it remains rare in quantum systems.

 

Horizon’s execution infrastructure also introduces control system abstraction, allowing developers to work in Hydrogen without needing to code for a specific set of control systems. The same Hydrogen program can target different quantum machines, automatically generating the appropriate set of control system instructions. Horizon’s infrastructure also connects to a range of hardware backends (processors and simulators) and manages the execution on each of these systems.

 

Horizon has plans to integrate its execution infrastructure more closely with control systems and quantum hardware to facilitate the real-time execution of increasingly large amounts Hydrogen’s feature set. The company expects this deeper integration to play an essential role in enabling usage of quantum error correction, fault tolerance, and other technologies that are likely critical to realizing practical quantum advantage. Horizon’s testbed provides the ideal setting for developing and testing these integrations. The first testbed system is designed to support switching between control systems, enabling collaboration with multiple control system manufacturers and providing Horizon with the flexibility needed to develop the most capable tools for quantum software development.

 

79

 

 

Horizon believes its technical progress with its development, deployment, and execution infrastructures marks the first steps toward a true quantum operating system (“OS”). A quantum OS is a specialized runtime environment that manages the unique resources of quantum hardware, such as qubits, much like a classical OS manages CPU cores and memory while also providing a bridge to software. Horizon’s execution infrastructure — with its compelling capabilities in I/O, measurement, dynamic memory management, and optimization — is designed to lay the foundation for the first true quantum OS.

 

Taken together, Horizon believes these advances will establish Horizon’s software infrastructure as the most capable and versatile platform for quantum application development, deployment, and execution, empowering developers with the tools needed to harness the power of quantum computing for solving challenging, real-world problems.

 

Hardware Testbed

 

Horizon is the first quantum software company to own and operate its own quantum computer. The company announced plans to establish an on-site testbed with capacity for multiple quantum computers in 2024, and its first quantum system became fully operational in the fourth quarter of 2025.

 

Horizon views tight integration between hardware and software as the shortest path to truly useful quantum computing. We believe having full control over both hardware and software infrastructure will provide a critical advantage in terms of software development, allowing Horizon to integrate its software directly with control systems and avoid latency issues that prevent fast feed-forward operations in remote settings. This would provide a path for real-time implementation of the full Hydrogen feature set, avoiding the overhead of the current hybrid runtime. The testbed will be connected to Triple Alpha, enabling users to deploy their quantum programs directly to its backends.

 

Horizon expects to integrate the testbed with conventional computing infrastructure, an ideal setting for testing and executing hybrid workloads that include both classical and quantum elements. This hands-on approach ensures Horizon’s software remains hardware-agnostic while being deeply optimized for the physical realities of quantum processors, demonstrating the company’s commitment to advancing quantum technology not just in theory but in practice.

 

The testbed has a modular, multi-vendor design. Rather than relying on a single supplier, Horizon has assembled a testbed made up of best-in-class components. The first testbed system combines a Rigetti Novera QPU, a Quantum Machine’s OPX1000 control system, and a Maybell Big Fridge large-volume dilution refrigerator.

 

To date, Horizon has invested a total of S$2.62 million (US$2.02 million) to acquire the components and build its on-site testbed and anticipates the need for an additional S$0.79 million (US$0.61 million). The additional anticipated investment will bring our total investment into our testbed to S$3.41 million (US$2.63 million).

Roadmap

 

Languages, compilation, and algorithm synthesis

 

Triple Alpha currently contains three proprietary programming languages: Helium and Hydrogen, which are currently available to early access users of Triple Alpha, and Beryllium, which the company previewed in December 2025. Horizon expects to make Beryllium available to early access users in the first half of 2026. Throughout 2026 and 2027, Horizon intends to introduce Beryllium libraries to support greater levels of abstraction in quantum algorithm construction.

 

During 2024 and 2025, Horizon introduced support for pulse control and measurement-based computation to better target specific hardware architectures. Over the course of 2026 and 2027, Horizon anticipates expanding the compiler capabilities to ensure that it can provide compilation to physical-level operations that include fusion operations (to better support low-level integration with photonic systems) and qubit transport (to better support low-level integration with neutral atom, trapped-ion, and other physical systems with moveable qubits) and to support fault-tolerant compilation.

 

By the end of 2028, Horizon intends to demonstrate an integrated compilation chain with automated algorithm construction all the way down to execution on control systems.

 

Runtime environment, real-time execution, and foundation of a quantum operating system

 

As a key component of Horizon’s execution infrastructure, the runtime environment supports several quantum operating system-like capabilities, including dynamic memory management and discoverability of system parameters. The company intends to add greater support for system services, including inter-process communication and job management. At present, execution on many systems relies on a post-selection-based process to overcome hardware limitations. Horizon expects direct execution of Hydrogen to be important to fully realizing such capabilities. Horizon aims to have runtime support for the necessary Hydrogen capabilities (without relying on post-selection) on its first testbed system by the second half of 2026, with support demonstrated on third-party systems in 2027.

 

Hardware testbeds, applications development, and push towards quantum advantage

 

Horizon’s first hardware testbed system became operational in December 2025. The company expects this quantum system to function as an environment for testing integration between Triple Alpha and control systems, and it anticipates granting Triple Alpha early access users access to this system by the end of 2026.

 

Horizon also expects to install a second testbed system by 2027. Unlike the first system, where the focus is purely on integration, Horizon anticipates that the second system will have sufficient qubit count and gate fidelity to place it beyond practical classical simulation, enabling the company to push towards practical quantum advantage.

 

To support this push, the company also intends to establish an applications team in 2026. Horizon expects that the team will act as an internal user of Triple Alpha and focus on developing algorithms to tackle a small number of high-value problems. The company already has a history of algorithm development, with team members having developed novel quantum algorithms for chemistry simulation, SAT-solving, fast linear algebra, and training and inference in machine learning.

 

With the establishment of a quantum advantage-capable testbed system, Horizon anticipates its in-house applications team and external Triple Alpha users will be able to test algorithms and initiate application development with the intention of achieving quantum advantage.

 

Horizon expects that this system will be fully operational and available to Triple Alpha users by the end of 2028.

Business Strategy

 

Horizon is building the software infrastructure to power the development and deployment of applications using quantum computing. At the core of this effort are tools built to help software developers make the most out of quantum computers. The company is creating the kind of software infrastructure familiar to classical developers — from high-level programming languages and optimizing compilers to the system software and runtimes needed to execute complex programs.

 

Horizon believes that this foundation positions it to serve an expanding market. We expect the total addressable market for quantum computing to grow rapidly in the coming decade, driven by both public and private investment and the emergence of quantum advantage. We believe that the quantum software segment will drive commercial adoption of quantum hardware, Horizon believes it is strategically placed to capitalize on this opportunity. Software infrastructure has proven to be important to creating value across every major computing wave, and, as history shows, the companies that shaped this infrastructure have tended to capture outsized value. Windows defined the PC era. iOS and Android did the same for mobile. AWS transformed web applications. VMware powered the modern data center, and Nvidia CUDA unlocked GPU computing. Horizon’s Triple Alpha platform aims to play that same foundational role for quantum computing.

 

Because Triple Alpha is expected to connect developers, end-users, and hardware providers, Horizon is positioned to sit at the heart of the quantum computing ecosystem, enabling the company to establish its product as the software infrastructure of choice for the industry. To advance this vision, Horizon’s multi-faceted business strategy focuses on product development, market penetration, and ecosystems collaboration. The company is pursuing three core strategies, through which it intends to capture market share. These are:

 

  Solving the Applications Bottleneck:    Triple Alpha is designed to tackle the most significant barrier to adoption — the difficulty of creating useful, portable quantum applications. By making quantum programming accessible to millions of conventional software developers, Horizon expects to dramatically expand the potential developer base and accelerate the discovery of practical use cases for quantum computing.

 

  Building a Strategic Ecosystem:    Rather than competing with hardware providers, Horizon seeks to engage with them. The company expects collaborations with leading hardware companies, control systems manufacturers, and software to act as a powerful distribution channel because these providers could embed Horizon software within their ecosystems, providing direct access to their customers.

 

  Demonstrating Value:    Horizon plans to establish an applications team, which it expects to be a key driver of growth over time. The Applications team will focus on developing quantum algorithms to demonstrate practical quantum advantage for a small number of high-value problems. The team will work directly with quantum hardware vendors and enterprise customers to identify, develop, and showcase real-world applications with the goal of delivering a clear quantum advantage, driving the adoption of applications built on top of the company’s software infrastructure.

 

82

 

 

Together, these initiatives reflect a fundamentally different philosophy toward quantum software development than other quantum programing frameworks. Unlike many quantum software companies, Horizon focuses on pushing the boundaries of what today’s quantum systems can achieve, rather than simply providing tools to interact with existing capabilities built by hardware manufacturers. The company aims to develop software that expands what quantum hardware can do, advancing the technology itself instead of merely enabling access to it. 

 

To realize this vision, accelerate technology development, expand market reach, and fuel company growth, Horizon expects to make targeted investments into four key areas:

 

  Technology:    Horizon is continuously investing in its core software infrastructure, adding new capabilities such as dynamic quantum memory management, architecture-independent optimization engines, and AI agent framework. These innovations seek to ensure Horizon’s platform remains cutting-edge and provides unique value to users.

 

  Team:    Horizon is strengthening its foundation by continuing to invest in talent that adds both scientific depth and business experience to the company. It is expanding its science and engineering teams while also bringing in seasoned tech industry leaders with public market and operational expertise.

 

  Infrastructure:    The quantum hardware testbed is a critical investment because it allows Horizon to tightly integrate its software infrastructure with a variety of hardware systems, ensuring it is robust, performant, and seamlessly compatible with the latest technological advancements.

 

  Marketing & Distribution:    Horizon will focus marketing and distribution efforts on high-performing industries, such as finance and the physical sciences, where the need for quantum advantage is most pressing. Through targeted marketing and collaborative efforts with potential customers, Horizon will build a reputation for delivering solutions that are both technologically superior and commercially viable.

 

By investing in these areas, Horizon expects to continue to take steps towards making quantum computing truly useful by removing barriers to practical quantum advantage. The company aims to advance its existing technologies to develop tools that automate the process of quantum algorithm construction, enabling a much broader community of developers to benefit from quantum acceleration — without requiring deep quantum expertise. By empowering experts in the domains where quantum computing will have the greatest impact to use these capabilities directly, Horizon aims to help unlock the technology’s full commercial potential.

 

The company is taking a hardware-agnostic approach to quantum software development, with programming languages that remain portable while giving developers full flexibility. Currently, the company is focused on collaborating with hardware manufacturers, with the intent of making Triple Alpha the preferred development environment for their systems. This work includes integrating hardware backends into Horizon’s systems and developing solutions to the software-infrastructure challenges unique to each hardware vendor.

 

Taken together, Horizon believes that these elements contribute to developing a foundational technology for quantum developers and end users that would be difficult to displace. As developers build codebases using the company’s languages and deploy their applications through its infrastructure, their programs become deeply integrated with the platform, making it costly and impractical to switch to another. As primarily a software business, Horizon expects to benefit from higher gross margins and lower capital expenditures requirements than hardware-based peers in the quantum industry. In addition, its hardware-agnostic approach can position it for success regardless of which hardware manufacturers or qubit modalities emerge as leaders in the long run.

 

Together, Horizon expects these factors to give it a sustainable competitive position as quantum computing transitions from experimentation to commercialization.

 

83

 

 

Business Model

 

Horizon has two primary paths to revenue: usage-based pricing on deployed applications and software licensing for on-premises deployment. When customers run applications through the company’s infrastructure (e.g. an API call or quantum job), the company plans to charge them based on usage. This model scales directly with customer activity, mirroring the familiar economics of traditional cloud and SaaS recurring business models.

 

For organizations that require on-premises control over their systems — such as research institutions, government agencies, or enterprises operating their own quantum hardware — Horizon plans to offer annual software licensing agreements that allow customers to deploy the same core technologies on their own servers or hardware.

 

Together, these complementary revenue streams are expected to form a hybrid business model that combines recurring cloud usage fees with longer-term enterprise subscription licensing. The result is anticipated to be a structure that provides scalability, visibility and predictability while enabling Horizon to serve cloud-native users as well as customers with specialized infrastructure needs.

 

By hosting the deployment and execution of customer applications, Horizon can price its services in proportion to the value they create for developers, as reflected in application usage. When developers build and deploy their quantum programs using the company’s infrastructure, those workloads run on its systems rather than simply being compiled there. This setup positions Horizon to measure usage — such as the number of API calls or quantum jobs executed — and charge accordingly, resulting in a value-based model where revenue scales as customers make more use of the company’s technology to power their applications and as those applications gain adoption.

 

In addition to these core streams, Horizon’s hardware testbed creates a third potential revenue source, enabling the company to offer access to its own quantum systems for running user jobs under a Quantum Computing as a Service model.

 

Because academia is expected to be a feeder for Horizon’s broader customer base, the company may offer discounted or free access to its software infrastructure for academic research groups. Universities are where future quantum developers and hardware scientists are trained, making academia a strategic channel for long-term engagement. By connecting early with this community, Horizon expects to help ensure that new professionals enter industry already familiar with its tools, reinforcing adoption across all three customer segments.

 

Horizon expects to serve three main customer groups: hardware vendors, software developers, and enterprise users. This multi-channel approach is intended to diversify revenue and reinforce the platform’s stickiness, as each customer segment is expected to contribute to and depend on the broader network of users built around the company’s technology.

 

Hardware Vendors

 

Horizon believes it will be an ideal partner for the next stage of commercialization of quantum computers and beyond. To drive adoption, quantum hardware manufacturers increasingly need development tools that enable practical applications. Through its collaboration model, Horizon seeks to provide vendors with a progressive pathway for integrating Triple Alpha with their hardware. This tiered pathway is expected to give vendors an easy on-ramp for working with Horizon, and it is expected to enable Horizon to offer a manufacturer’s hardware to Triple Alpha users at early stages of the engagement. The pathway begins with an initial integration of a vendor’s system into Triple Alpha. At later stages, the vendor has the option to collaborate more deeply, working with Horizon to achieve technical goals through Triple Alpha, and potentially pursuing joint go-to-market efforts. This approach serves Horizon’s ambition to provide the most capable development tools for each hardware platform, with an aim of Triple Alpha becoming the software infrastructure of choice for application development on that platform. In doing so, it potentially positions Triple Alpha to become the default software infrastructure for a manufacturer’s customers, while allowing the manufacturer to avoid high-risk or untested options.

 

84

 

 

Horizon has key relationships with several quantum hardware providers. The company has a joint marketing agreement with Rigetti, covering Rigetti’s Novera QPU, its newest quantum processor, and Horizon’s participation in the Novera QPU Partner Program. Each of Rigetti and Horizon granted the other party a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free fully paid-up license to use certain of its trademarks in connection with marketing the Novera QPU and Novera QPU Partner Program. Horizon has also entered annual partnership agreements with Alice & Bob, Oxford Quantum Circuits Ltd., and QuEra Computing Inc. through which each party is testing Triple Alpha on its respective hardware to enhance interoperability and integration, in each case without cost to either party. While none of these relationships has generated revenue yet, they aim to support deeper technical integration and may provide a foundation for future commercialization opportunities. However, no assurance can be given that these relationships will ever generate revenue. See “Risk Factors — Our business and growth are dependent on the success of our strategic relationships with third parties” and “— We are in our very early stages and have a limited operating history, which makes it difficult to forecast the future results of our operations. It is also possible quantum computing might never become commercially viable or embraced. Our technology roadmap, including the anticipated milestones and timing thereof, may change.”

 

Quantum Software Vendors

 

Horizon expects quantum software vendors to become important customers as quantum computing gains adoption. While the number of pure quantum software companies is currently limited, the software sector will be critical to realizing the potential value of quantum computing hardware. For these companies, achieving quantum advantage for industry relevant workloads is an important component of achieving commercial success. Horizon is building the development tools and software infrastructure to enable these developers to get the most out of quantum computing hardware and shorten the path to practical quantum advantage.

 

Early Enterprise Users

 

Horizon has received early access requests for Triple Alpha from more than 40 major corporations. The company expects to gain traction in domains where conventional computing is already hitting computational limits and where quantum computing appears to offer a solution. Examples include:

 

  Molecular and materials simulation — In computational chemistry, quantum computing has the potential to accelerate advances in drug discovery, catalyst design, polymer science, and battery materials. Quantum algorithms are known to allow for efficient simulation of chemical dynamics, and the inherently noisy nature of the environments in which most reactions happen may allow for quantum advantage to be achieved for simulation even before fault-tolerant quantum computation becomes available. Achieving reliable and efficient simulation of all chemical reactions is expected to allow researchers to shorten design cycles and significantly reduce reliance on costly early-stage physical experiments.

 

  Financial modelling and risk management — In these domains, where classical computers strain under extreme complexity, quantum computing offers the potential to generate more accurate models and achieve results in a fraction of the time. Quantum computing has the potential to offer more efficient methods of performing the Monte-Carlo simulations used to price many financial instruments. When paired with more efficient search and optimization quantum algorithms, this could provide a powerful toolbox for the financial industry, with applications ranging from better risk management and portfolio optimization to better coverage of black swan events and more efficient markets through better detection of arbitrage opportunities.

 

85

 

 

  Artificial intelligence, machine learning, and data science — Quantum computing has the potential to transform core machine learning tasks both through the acceleration of training and inference for classical models and through the emergence of natively quantum machine learning models capable of recognizing features not easily accessible to classical models. Since much of the current progress in generative AI is enabled only by vast amounts of computational effort, quantum computing has the potential to open up an entirely new phase of the development of the technology.

 

  National Laboratories, Research Institutions, Government Agencies, and Universities  Horizon has received early access requests for Triple Alpha from more than 18 national labs, government agencies, and research institutions and more than 90 universities, including eight of the top 20 according to the 2025 Times Higher Education rankings. Through their efforts, these organizations can drive breakthroughs in quantum computing, powering translational research that can lead to practical applications and commercialization over time.

 

Competition

 

Several alternate approaches to quantum programming exist, including control-systems programming (e.g. QUA and LabOne Q), pulse-level frameworks (e.g. OpenPulse and Quil-T), gate-level quantum programming languages (e.g. Qiskit, PyQuil, and Cirq), model-based synthesis (Classiq’s approach), and domain libraries (e.g. OpenFermion, TensorFlow Quantum, and PennyLane).

 

Control-systems programming gives developers access to real-time sequencing, classical feedback, and pulse shapes and timing directly on hardware controllers. This approach maximizes expressivity for calibration, characterization, and bespoke experiments, and in principle, it allows for the construction of any program that the device can physically perform. The trade-off is portability: code written at this level is closely tied to the specific hardware system it was written for.

 

Pulse-level frameworks let developers specify waveforms, schedules, and calibrations within higher-level SDKs. They offer fine-grained control while integrating with broader ecosystem tooling, but portability depends on each device’s supported primitives and available calibration data. As a result, programs often need backend-specific adjustments.

 

Gate-level languages represent programs as abstract circuits that are later converted, or transpiled, into the native gates of a specific device. They are widely used, supported by simulators and multiple hardware providers, and offer comparatively good portability. However, they generally sacrifice direct access to analog timing and hardware-specific features, which can limit low-level optimization and experimental control.

 

Model-based synthesis starts from a high-level description of how to solve a problem and then automatically builds circuits tailored to run efficiently on specific hardware. This approach can boost developer productivity and broaden compatibility, but it reduces transparency and limits direct control over scheduling and pulse operations.

 

Domain libraries provide packaged, ready-made algorithms and integrations, with examples including chemistry tools such as OpenFermion and hybrid quantum-machine learning workflows such as TensorFlow Quantum and PennyLane. They accelerate application development, but they rely on underlying frameworks and backends, which restricts the amount of direct control developers have at the hardware level.

 

86

 

 

In practice, existing approaches make trade-offs between flexibility and portability. Control-systems layers offer a lot of flexibility but are tightly bound to specific hardware stacks. Model-based synthesis and domain libraries sacrifice low-level control to achieve broader compatibility. Horizon’s programming languages are designed to overcome this trade-off, providing precise pulse-level control and advanced control flow while maintaining broad portability across supported systems.

 

Triple Alpha’s advanced capabilities — such as dynamic memory management and circuit synthesis from classical code — further differentiate it from competing quantum programming approaches. With these capabilities, it provides a higher level of abstraction than most approaches while still supporting low-level control when needed. Horizon also holds patents on techniques that automatically construct accelerated quantum algorithms from classical code — moving beyond simply translating the instructions to a quantum-compatible form to actually generating quantum-accelerated implementations of the code’s functionality (see — “Intellectual Property”).

 

Intellectual Property

 

Development, know-how, and engineering skills are an essential component of Horizon’s business, resulting in the creation of its broad intellectual property portfolio. The company relies on a combination of patents, trademarks, copyrights, and trade secrets, as well as contractual provisions and restrictions, to establish and protect intellectual property and other proprietary rights in the United States, Europe, and other jurisdictions.

 

Horizon makes use of trade secrets, patents and copyrights to protect its intellectual property. Horizon pursues patent protection when it is consistent with the company’s overall strategy for safeguarding intellectual property. Horizon’s use of trade secrets, patents and copyrights establishes a strong defensive position around its core compiler technology and its ability to bridge the gap between high-level programming and low-level hardware execution.

 

Horizon primarily makes use of patents to protect functionality where the mechanism is easily discoverable by users and makes use of trade secrets to protect functionality that cannot easily be reverse engineered through use of its software. Horizon also relies on copyright to protect its proprietary software code, which is owned by Horizon and forms the basis of its quantum software infrastructure.

 

Horizon has accumulated intellectual property that covers all the main aspects of its technology, including systems and software, and the company intends to protect its innovative inventions. Its patent portfolio includes key technologies, such as systems and methods for constructing quantum algorithms from classical programs and unique methodologies for performing quantum computation with adaptive control flow.

Governmental Regulations

 

Privacy and data protection regulations

 

With respect to the personal data collected by us, we are required to comply with Singapore’s PDPA which governs the collection, use and disclosure of individuals’ personal data (i.e. data, whether true or not, about an individual who can be identified from that data; or from that data and other information to which the relevant organization has or is likely to have access). The PDPA seeks to ensure that organizations comply with a baseline standard of protection for personal data of individuals. The PDPA is administered and enforced by the PDPC.

 

The PDPA requires, inter alia, organizations to obtain the consent of individuals before collecting, using or disclosing their personal data for purposes that a reasonable person would consider appropriate in the circumstances; have mechanisms in place for individuals to withdraw their consent and reasonable security arrangements in place to prevent unauthorized access, collection, use, disclosure, copying, modification or disposal of personal data.

 

Any improper use or disclosure of personal data and breaches of security leading to disclosure of personal data may lead to criminal sanctions under the PDPA, reputational damage, and a direct loss of business. It is also important to note that for contraventions of the PDPA, the PDPC is empowered to impose financial penalties of up to S$1 million, or 10% of the organization’s annual turnover in Singapore (for organizations with annual turnover exceeding S$10 million), whichever is higher. The PDPC may publish enforcement decisions, which can have reputational consequences for organizations found to be in breach.

 

The PDPA is supplemented by subsidiary legislation, such as the Personal Data Protection Regulations 2021, the Personal Data Protection (Do Not Call Registry) Regulations 2013, and the Personal Data Protection (Notification of Data Breaches) Regulations 2021. The PDPC also issues advisory guidelines to assist organizations in interpreting and complying with the PDPA. On 23 September 2014, the PDPC issued one of the key guidelines to the PDPA, the Advisory Guidelines on Key Concepts in the Personal Data Act, which serves to illustrate and further explain the PDPA. This set of guidelines was revised on 16 May 2022 to clarify, amongst others, the definition of personal data, the consent obligation, data accuracy and data breach reporting.

 

We are also subject to the GDPR and applicable national supplementing laws. The GDPR imposes comprehensive data privacy compliance obligations in relation to our collection, processing, sharing, disclosure, transfer and other use of data relating to an identifiable living individual, “personal data,” including a principal of accountability and the obligation to demonstrate compliance through policies, procedures, training and audit. The GDPR also grants certain privacy rights to individuals and imposes fines for specified breaches, up to the greater of EUR 20 million or 4% of our global annual turnover, and the potential of other penalties for breaches such as regulatory investigations, reputational damage, orders to cease or change our data processing activities, enforcement notices and/or civil claims for damages.

 

While we endeavor to comply with all applicable laws and regulations relating to privacy, security and data protection, including the GDPR, it is possible that such requirements may be interpreted and applied in a manner that is inconsistent from one jurisdiction to another, in particular as different EU member state regulators may differ as to their interpretation of the GDPR and the approach they may take to breaches, enforcement, complaints or the exercise of rights to access personal data by individuals. Any perceived or actual failure by us to protect confidential data, personal data, any material non-compliance with privacy, security or data protection laws or regulations or any general IT system failure may harm our reputation and credibility, adversely affect our revenues, reduce our ability to attract or retain customers, result in litigation or other actions being brought against us and the imposition of fines and, as a result, could have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Overview of Our Business

 

We are building software infrastructure to make quantum computers accessible to commercial enterprises and hardware providers. By bridging the gap between today’s hardware and tomorrow’s applications, we seek to equip developers, researchers, and enterprises with the quantum software infrastructure needed to solve real-world problems.

 

To do this, we are following an ambitious plan to create development tools that can automatically accelerate code written for conventional computers on quantum computers. With this differentiated approach, we are developing methods to generate quantum-accelerated solutions — exploiting quantum effects such as superposition and entanglement — from legacy code and conventional software.

 

Today, our Triple Alpha software is an integrated development environment that gives users access to our development, deployment, and execution infrastructure. It empowers developers to create sophisticated, portable, hardware-agnostic quantum programs. Users can code at multiple abstraction levels, compile and optimize programs across many real quantum computers and simulators, and deploy applications as APIs. We have key collaborations with leading hardware providers including Rigetti Computing, Inc., Oxford Quantum Circuits Ltd., Alice & Bob, and QuEra Computing Inc.

 

Triple Alpha is currently in early access with quantum hardware vendors. We have received inbound interest in early access requests from more than 40 major corporations, more than 90 universities, 13 quantum software companies, and 18 national labs, government agencies and research organizations.

 

We are still in the early stages of scaling its business. Since our inception, we have incurred operating losses. Our ability to generate revenue sufficient to achieve profitability will depend heavily on the further development and commercialization of quantum computers and their software infrastructure.

 

Principal Factors Affecting Our Performance

 

The growth and future success of our business depend on many factors. While these factors present significant opportunities for our business, they also pose risks and challenges, including those discussed below and in the section of this prospectus titled “Risk Factors,” that we must successfully address to achieve growth, improve our results of operations, and generate profits.

 

90

 

 

Adoption of Quantum Computing. Quantum computing is an emerging technology, and our business model depends heavily on the pace at which quantum computing achieves meaningful adoption. The adoption of quantum computing is heavily influenced by the ability of participants in the quantum industry, including ourselves, to solve technical challenges to reach “quantum advantage,” which is the point at which quantum computers can solve practical problems beyond the capabilities of classical computers. If “quantum advantage” cannot be achieved, takes longer than expected or is limited in scope, then demand for our software stack may be significantly less than expected. 

 

Performance of Strategic Partners. An important part of our anticipated growth depends on our ability to enter into and maintain partnerships with quantum computer hardware vendors and our ability to access and integrate with such vendors’ systems. Our prospective performance may be adversely impacted if we are unable to establish meaningful relationships with such vendors or are delayed in doing so, especially with faster-growing hardware makers.

 

Competitive Marketplace. The market for our solutions is fragmented, rapidly evolving and highly competitive. We face competition from both traditional, larger software vendors offering developer tools and smaller companies offering point products for features and use cases. Many of our competitors have significantly greater financial resources and expertise in research and development and in bringing products to market and also possess recognizable brands and strong institutional and commercial relationships in comparison to us.

 

Target Customers. We expect that our potential customers will generally be governmental agencies, large enterprises, universities and other research institutions. Our future success will depend on our ability to effectively sell our products to these categories of customers. Moreover, sales and implementation cycles for such customers tend to be longer and these customers can exert greater purchasing power compared to non-governmental agencies or smaller customers.

 

R&D. Since quantum computing is a rapidly evolving field, our success depends on our ability to develop and commercialize reliable and cost-effective software tools that enable software applications to harness quantum hardware. This requires substantial technical expertise and an ability to adapt to an evolving technology landscape and is, therefore, subject to significant uncertainty. If we are not able to make the necessary technical progress, then our products may not achieve commercial viability, which would impair our growth prospects.

 

Senior Management. Our future success depends on the continuing efforts of Dr. Joseph Fitzsimons and Dr. Si-Hui Tan. We rely on the knowledge and experience that Dr. Fitzsimons and Dr. Tan provide in quantum science and computing technology. They are the cornerstone of our research and development efforts, which have been, and will continue to be, instrumental in our ability to develop our current and future products and services. The market for such positions is intensely competitive, which could increase our costs to attract and retain talented individuals. In the event Dr. Fitzsimons or Dr. Tan were to become unavailable for any reason, including injury, illness or death, there could be a material adverse impact on our operations.

Revenues

 

We are a development stage company and have not generated any material revenue to date. We intend for our revenues to be predominantly generated from our quantum software development tools. Currently, we provide limited quantum research and development services and recognize our revenues when services are delivered to the customer and all criteria for acceptance have been satisfied and generate nominal revenues in connection with these services. The current sources of revenue are not core to our long-term business model, and we do not anticipate that our current sources to be material drivers of revenue in the future.

 

Revenues decreased by S$0.31 million (US$0.24 million) to S$0.05 million (US$0.04 million) for the year ended December 31, 2025, from S$0.36 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. This was primarily driven by the reduction in the number of revenue contract milestones in which Horizon provided research and development services on quantum algorithms.

Research and development expenses

 

Research and development expenses consist primarily of personnel-related costs, including salaries, share-based compensation, travel and benefits expenses for scientists, software engineers and other technical staff engaged in the design, development and testing of our software and hardware systems. It also includes software and other cloud services subscriptions and third-party costs associated with the operation of our hardware testbed. Research and development expenses increased by S$7.24 million, or 209%, to S$10.70 million (US$8.32 million) for the year ended December 31, 2025, from S$3.46 million during the year ended December 31, 2024. The increase was primarily driven by: (a) a S$4.35 million increase in share-based compensation expenses attributable to the vesting of employee share options; (b) a S$2.17 million increase in payroll-related expenses as a result of increased hiring of scientists and engineers; and (c) a S$0.62 million increase in costs from the setup of our hardware testbed and additional cloud service subscription costs and (d) a S$0.10 million increase in other staff related costs associated with an increase in headcount.

 

Selling and marketing expenses

 

Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of personnel-related costs, including salaries, share-based compensation, travel and benefits expenses for our marketing and commercial operations teams. It also consists of public relations, trade show and other advertising costs associated with developing partnerships and industry engagement. Selling and marketing expenses increased by S$0.80 million, or 81%, to S$1.79 million (US$1.39 million) for the year ended December 31, 2025 from S$0.99 million during the year ended December 31, 2024. The increase was primarily driven by: (a) a S$0.33 million increase in share-based compensation expenses attributable to the vesting of employee share options; (b) a S$0.41 million increase in payroll-related expenses as a result of increased hiring; and (c) a S$0.06 million increase in staff and vendor expenses associated with greater participation in industry conferences compared to the year ended December 31, 2024.

 

General and administrative expenses

 

General and administrative expenses consist primarily of personnel related costs, including salaries, share-based compensation, travel and benefits expenses for our finance, human resources, operations and administrative teams. It also consists of expenses for professional services and compliance, such as legal, audit, accounting, consulting fees as well as insurance, facilities and other overhead expenses. General and administrative expenses increased by S$5.66 million, or 194%, to S$8.57 million (US$6.67 million) for the year ended December 31, 2025 from S$2.91 million during the year ended December 31, 2024. The increase was driven by: (a) a S$2.83 million increase in M&A related and other operational legal expenses; (b) an increase of S$1.69 million in share-based compensation expenses attributable to the vesting of employee share options; (c) a S$0.79 increase in payroll-related expenses due to increase in hiring; (d) a S$0.24 million increase in IT, insurance, travel expenses and other miscellaneous resulting from higher staff and operational requirements; and (e) a S$0.11 million increase in shared office rental expenses incurred by our Irish subsidiary.

 

Depreciation and amortization expenses

 

Depreciation and amortization expenses represent the allocation of our property, equipment and intangible assets over their estimated lives. Depreciation and amortization expenses increased by S$0.20 million, or 23%, to S$1.05 million (US$0.82 million) for the year ended December 31, 2025 from S$0.86 million during the year ended December 31, 2024. The increase was primarily driven by an increase of: (a) S$0.11 million from depreciation of components of operational quantum computer in Singapore; (b) an increase of S$0.07 million from depreciation of right-of-use assets recognized under lease arrangements; (c) and an increase of S$0.02 million from depreciation of additional computer and related equipment purchased to support higher staff headcount.

 

Interest expense

 

Interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2025, decreased only nominally versus the comparative period of the prior year. 

 

95

 

 

Share-based compensation expenses

 

We account for share-based compensation arrangements granted to employees in accordance with ASC 718, “Compensation: Stock Compensation” (“ASC 718”), by measuring the grant date fair value of the award and recognizing the resulting expense over the period during which the employee is required to perform services in exchange for the award. Equity-based compensation expense is recognized only for awards subject to performance conditions if it is probable that the performance condition will be achieved. We account for forfeitures when they occur.

 

Share-based compensation expenses recognized under research and development, selling and marketing as well as general and administrative expenses increased by S$6.37 million, or a 3993% increase, to S$6.53 million (US$5.07 million) for the year ended December 31, 2025, from S$0.16 million during the year ended December 31, 2024. The increase was attributable to new share option grants and related vesting activity during the year ended December 31, 2025.

 

Other income

 

Other income was primarily attributable to interest from fixed-rate deposits for the year ended December 31, 2025 decreased nominally versus the comparative period of the prior year due to lower cash and cash equivalent balances across the year.

 

Foreign exchange (Loss) Gain

 

Foreign exchange losses increased by S$0.74 million, or 252%, to S$0.45 million (US$0.35 million) for the year ended December 31, 2025 from a gain of S$0.29 million during the year ended December 31, 2024. This was due to the strengthening of the Singapore dollar against the U.S. Dollar, which adversely impacted the remeasurement of cash and bank balances denominated in U.S. Dollars.

 

Change in fair value of derivative liabilities

 

We recognized an increase in non-cash losses of S$0.66 million (US$0.51 million) for the year ended December 31, 2025, related to the remeasurement of SAFE liabilities compared to nil for the year ended December 31, 2024. This was due to classification of SAFE notes as liabilities that are subsequently remeasured at fair value at each reporting date with changes in fair value recognized in the consolidated statement of operations.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources; Going Concern

 

Our operations have been financed primarily through net proceeds from the issuance by Horizon of Series A convertible preference shares prior to the consummation of the Business Combination. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, we had cash and cash equivalents of S$0.3 million (US$0.2 million) and S$6.6 million (US$5.2 million), respectively.

 

Our cash is primarily used in two areas, first to fund operating expenses related to the growth of our business, especially through research and development activities, including personnel related costs and overhead associated with the development and testing of our software and hardware systems. Cash is also used to support sales and marketing activities focused on building new partnerships, maintaining existing ones, funding industry engagement efforts and to support our operations in the areas of compliance, legal, accounting, facilities and other overheads. The second is capital expenditures related to the acquisition of equipment and related components to build our hardware testbed.

We incurred net losses of S$23.1 million (US$17.9 million) and S$7.5 million (US$5.8 million) during the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and have an accumulated deficit of S$44.5 million (US$34.6 million) as of December 31, 2025. As previously disclosed, these conditions raised substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements were issued.

 

The primary objective of Horizon’s capital management is to ensure that it maintains sound capital position in order to support its business and maximize shareholder value. On March 19, 2026, the Company consummated the previously announced Business Combination with DMY. Upon closing of the Business Combination, Horizon became a wholly owned subsidiary and the primary operating entity of the Company, which is now publicly traded. The closing of the Business Combination provided the Company with gross proceeds of approximately US$120 million, consisting of funds held in DMY’s trust account (after redemptions) and proceeds from a concurrent PIPE Private Placement. Accordingly, management has concluded that the conditions that previously raised substantial doubt about Horizon’s ability to continue as a going concern has been alleviated.

 

Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors including our ability to begin to recognize revenue and our revenue growth rate, the timing and extent of spending to support further research and development and sales and marketing efforts. In order to finance these opportunities, we will need to raise additional capital. However, we may not be able to raise additional capital on terms acceptable to us or at all. To the extent that we raise additional capital through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, the ownership interest of our shareholders could be diluted, and the terms of these securities may include liquidation or other preferences that adversely affect the rights of its shareholders. Debt financing and equity financing, if available, may involve agreements that include covenants limiting or restricting its ability to take specific actions, such as incurring additional debt, making capital expenditures or declaring dividends. If we raise funds through collaborations, or other similar arrangements with third parties, we may have to relinquish valuable rights to our quantum computing technology on terms that may not be favorable to us and/or may reduce the value of the Company Shares. If we are unable to raise additional capital when desired, we may be required to delay, limit, reduce or terminate our quantum computing development efforts, and our business, results of operations and financial condition would be materially and adversely affected.

Operating Activities

 

Net cash used in operating activities during the year ended December 31, 2025, was S$13.1 million (US$10.2 million), resulting primarily from a net loss of S$23.1 million, adjusted for (a) non-cash charges of S$6.5 million in share-based compensation expense; (b) S$1.1 million in depreciation and amortization; (c) S$0.7 million in change in fair value of derivative liabilities; (d) S$0.4 million of unrealized foreign exchange loss; and (e) S$1.3 million of changes in working capital. The increase in net cash used in operating activities from the prior year was primarily related to the our increase in hiring of research and development personnel and associated operational support costs.

 

Net cash used in operating activities during the year ended December 31, 2024, was S$7.4 million (US$5.8 million), resulting primarily from a net loss of S$7.5 million, adjusted for: (a) non-cash charges of S$0.9 million in depreciation and amortization; (b) S$0.2 million in share-based compensation; and offset by (c) S$0.7 million of changes in working capital; and (d) S$0.3 million of unrealized foreign exchange gain.

 

Investing Activities

 

Net cash used in investing activities during the year ended December 31, 2025, was S$0.5 million (US$0.4 million) representing additions of S$0.3 million of purchases relating to computer and office equipment to support increased staff headcount and operational requirements and additions of S$0.2 million to equipment primarily related to the development of a quantum computing system.

 

Net cash used in investing activities during the year ended December 31, 2024, was S$2.7 million (US$2.1 million) representing additions of S$1.7 million to equipment primarily related to the development of a quantum computing system, additions of S$0.9 million attributable to capital expenditures for office renovation works, and additions of S$0.1 million of purchases relating to computer and office equipment to support increased staff headcount and operational requirements.

 

Financing activities

 

Net cash provided by financing activities during the year ended December 31, 2025, was S$7.6 million (US$5.9 million) for the period reflecting net proceeds from the issuances of SAFEs.

 

Net cash provided by financing activities during the year ended December 31, 2024, was nil for the period as we did not undertake any financing transactions.

 

Contractual Obligations

 

We lease office space in Singapore under three operating lease agreements with average remaining lease terms of approximately 15 months. The lease agreements provide for monthly rental payments and other service charges. See “Note 7 — Right-Of-Use Assets and Lease Liabilities” in our consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 included in this prospectus for more information. We also entered a material purchase commitment with Maybell Quantum Industries Inc., to purchase capital equipment related to its hardware testbed. The unpaid contract value of the agreement is approximately US$581 thousand, payment is required upon delivery and acceptance of the equipment, and the transaction is expected to close in the second or third fiscal quarter of 2026.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

As of December 31, 2025 and through the date of this prospectus, we do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements, as defined in the rules and regulations of the SEC.

Critical Accounting Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Critical accounting estimates are those estimates made in accordance with GAAP that involve a significant level of estimation uncertainty and have had or are reasonably likely to have a material impact on the financial condition or results of operations of the company. In accounting for share-based compensation and SAFE derivative liabilities, the use of valuation methods for awards granted prior to our becoming a publicly traded company, the use of estimates in option valuation model inputs such as expected volatility, term of options, risk-free interest rates, the usage of probability-weighted expected return method (“PWERM”), supported by use of a Monte Carlo simulation method to derive fair value changes for SAFE liabilities are subjective and the change in these assumptions can materially affect the amount of share-based compensation expense recognized in the consolidated financial statements. 

 

Revenue Recognition

 

During the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2025, Horizon provided research and development services on quantum algorithms and revenue is recognized when services are delivered to the customer and all criteria for acceptance have been satisfied.

 

See “Note 2—Revenue Recognition” in our consolidated financial statements and notes for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 included in this prospectus.

 

Leases

 

Our office spaces in Singapore are leased under three operating lease agreements. Leases are accounted for under ASC 842. We determine if an arrangement is or contains a lease at inception. Right of use assets represent our right to use the underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Right of use assets and lease liabilities are recognized at the commencement date based on the present value of the lease payments over the lease term. As our leases do not provide an implicit rate and the implicit rate is not readily determinable, we estimate our incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the measurement date in determining the present value of the lease payments. Right of use assets also exclude lease incentives.

 

See “Note 2—Leases” in our consolidated financial statements and notes for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 included in this prospectus.

 

Share-Based Compensation

 

We account for share-based compensation expense in accordance with ASC 718. We measure and recognize compensation expense for all stock-based awards based on estimated fair values on the date of the grant, recognized over the requisite service period. For awards that vest solely based on a service condition, we recognize share-based compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period. We account for forfeitures in the period in which they occur.

 

See “Note 2—Share-Based Compensation” in our consolidated financial statements and notes for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 included in this prospectus.

 

Foreign Operations and Foreign Currency Translation

 

The currency of the primary economic environment in which we conduct our operations is the Singapore Dollar (“SGD”). We use SGD as our functional currency. The results of our non-Singaporean subsidiary, whose functional currency is the local currency of the economic environment in which it operates, is translated into SGD in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

 

See “Note 2—“Foreign Operations Foreign Currency Translation” in our consolidated financial statements and notes for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 included in this prospectus.

 

Loss Contingencies

 

In the future, we may be involved in various legal proceedings, claims, and regulatory, tax or other government inquiries and investigations that arise in the ordinary course of business. Certain of these matters could include claims for substantial or indeterminate amounts of damages. We will record a liability when we believe that a loss is probable, and the amount can be reasonably estimated. If we determine that a loss is reasonably possible and the loss or range of loss can be reasonably estimated, we will disclose the possible loss in the accompanying notes to our consolidated financial statements. If we determine that a loss is reasonably possible, but the loss or range of loss cannot be reasonably estimated, we will state in the accompanying notes to our consolidated financial statements that an estimate of the loss cannot be made.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

 

Foreign Exchange Risk

 

We conduct operations through our Irish subsidiary and we incur expenses and record assets and liabilities in local currencies such as the Euro. We also maintain cash balances in US dollars with major financial institutions in Singapore. Accordingly, fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates relative to the Singapore Dollar may impact our consolidated financial statements. For the year ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, we reported foreign currency translation gain of approximately S$154 thousand and a loss of approximately S$17 thousand, respectively. We expect that our exposure to loss in future earnings, fair values or cash flows resulting from foreign exchange risk will increase as our operations in Ireland grow and as a result of future sales in other global markets, such as North America and Europe. We have not engaged in the hedging of foreign currency transactions to date, although we may choose to do so in the future.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

A description of recently issued accounting pronouncements that may potentially impact our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows is included in Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this prospectus.

 

We have adopted ASU 2023-07 “Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures on January 1, 2024 and the adoption did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. We are currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2023-09 “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures” and ASU 2024-03, “Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income – Expenses Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40)” on our consolidated financial statements. Please additionally refer to Note 2 for recently adopted accounting pronouncements and recently issued accounting pronouncements not yet adopted as of the dates of the statement of financial position included in this prospectus.

 

Emerging Growth Company Status

 

As defined in Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act, we are an emerging growth company (“EGC”). As such, we will be eligible for and intends to rely on certain exemptions and reduced reporting requirements provided by the JOBS Act, including (a) the exemption from the auditor attestation requirements with respect to internal control over financial reporting under Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, (b) the exemptions from say-on-pay, say-on-frequency and say-on-golden parachute voting requirements and (c) reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements.

 

We will remain an EGC until the earliest of (1) the last day of its fiscal year during which it has total annual gross revenues of at least US$1.235 billion; (2) the last day of its fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of DMY’s initial public offering; (3) the date on which we have, during the previous three-year period, issued more than US$1.0 billion in non-convertible debt; or (4) the date on which the Company is deemed to be a “large accelerated filer” under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, which would occur if we have been a public company for at least 12 months and the market value of the Company Class A Shares that are held by non-affiliates exceeds US$700 million as of the last business day of its most recently completed second fiscal quarter.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION

AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS OF DMY

 

The following discussion and analysis of DMY’s financial condition and results of operations of dMY Squared Technology Group, Inc. (for purposes of this section, “DMY”, “we,” “us” and “our”) should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements of DMY as of and for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the notes thereto, included elsewhere in this prospectus. This discussion contains forward-looking statements reflecting our current expectations, estimates and assumptions concerning events and financial trends that may affect our future operating results or financial position. Actual results and the timing of events may differ materially from those contained in these forward-looking statements due to a number of factors, including those discussed in the sections entitled “Risk Factors” and “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” appearing elsewhere in this prospectus. 

 

Overview

 

Our company, DMY, is a blank check company incorporated in Massachusetts. We were formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses. We are an emerging growth company and, as such, we are subject to all of the risks associated with emerging growth companies.

 

As of December 31, 2025, we had not commenced any operations. All activity for the period from February 15, 2022 (inception) through December 31, 2025 relates to our formation and the Initial Public Offering (as defined below), and since the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the search for a prospective initial business combination. We will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of our initial business combination, at the earliest. We generate non-operating income from the proceeds derived from the Initial Public Offering.

 

Our “Sponsor” is dMY Squared Sponsor, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company. The registration statement for our Initial Public Offering was declared effective on September 29, 2022. On October 4, 2022, we consummated our Initial Public Offering of 6,000,000 Units, at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $60.0 million, and incurring offering costs of approximately $3.7 million, of which $2.1 million and approximately $26,000 was for deferred underwriting commissions and offering costs allocated to derivate warrant liabilities, respectively (the “Initial Public Offering”). On October 7, 2022, the underwriter exercised its over-allotment option in part, and on October 11, 2022, the underwriter purchased 319,000 Over-Allotment Units (the “Over-Allotment Units”), generating gross proceeds of approximately $3.2 million. The underwriter waived the remainder of its over-allotment option. We incurred additional offering costs of approximately $156,000 in connection with the underwriter’s partial exercise of its over-allotment option (of which approximately $112,000 was for deferred underwriting fees).

 

Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, we consummated a private placement of 2,840,000 DMY Private Warrants, at a price of $1.00 per DMY Private Warrant to our Sponsor, generating proceeds of approximately $2.8 million. On October 11, 2022, simultaneously with the issuance and sale of the over-allotment units, we consummated the sale of 44,660 additional DMY Private Warrants generating additional gross proceeds of approximately $45,000.

 

In addition, concurrently with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, our Sponsor extended an overfunding loan to us in the amount of $900,000 at no interest (the “Initial Overfunding Loan”), to be deposited into our  U.S.-based trust account (the “Trust Account”). On October 11, 2022, simultaneously with the sale of the Over-Allotment Units, our Sponsor extended an additional Overfunding Loan to us in an aggregate amount of $47,850, to be deposited in the Trust Account (the “Additional Overfunding Loan,” together with the Intial Overfunding Loan, the “Overfunding Loans”). 

 

Upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the private placement and the Overfunding Loans, approximately $64.1 million ($10.15 per Unit) of the net proceeds of the sale of the Units, the Over-Allotment Units, and the DMY Private Warrants and the proceeds from the Overfunding Loans were initially placed in the Trust Account and were invested in United States government securities, within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), with a maturity of 185 days or less in any open-ended investment company that holds itself out as a money market fund meeting certain conditions of Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act, as determined by us, until the earlier of: (i) the completion of a business combination, (ii) the redemption of Class A common stock of DMY, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class A Shares” or “Public Shares”) issued as a component of our units in our Initial Public Offering properly submitted in connection with a shareholder vote to amend our Amended and Restated Articles of Organization (the “Charter”) to modify the substance or timing of our of our obligation to redeem 100% of our Public Shares if we do not complete our initial business combination within the period between December 29, 2025 to January 29, 2026 and to allow DMY, without another shareholder vote, by resolution of the board of directors, to elect to further extend such date up to five times for an additional one month each time, until up to June 29, 2026 (such time period, the “Combination Period”) or with respect to any other material provisions relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-initial business combination activity, and (iii) our return of the funds held in the Trust Account to our Public Shareholders as part of our redemption of the Public Shares if we do not complete an initial business combination during the Combination Period. At the special meeting on January 2, 2024, our shareholders approved an amendment to the Investment Management Trust Agreement, permitting the trustee to, in a timely manner, upon the written instruction of our company, (i) hold funds uninvested, (ii) hold funds in an interest-bearing bank demand deposit account, or (iii) invest and reinvest the funds in solely United States government securities within the meaning of Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act, having a maturity of 185 days or less, or in money market funds meeting the conditions of Rule 2a-7 promulgated under the Investment Company Act, which invest only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations. The trustee is not permitted to invest in other securities or assets. Investing in our securities is not intended for persons who are seeking a return on investments in government securities or investment securities. Instead, the Trust Account is intended as a holding place for funds pending the use of such funds upon completion of a business combination or distribution upon redemption of our Public Shares. On September 25, 2024, we instructed Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, the trustee with respect to the Trust Account, to transfer our Trust Account out of investment in securities into an interest-bearing bank deposit account in order to mitigate the risk of being deemed an unregistered investment company, and the account was transferred in March 2025.

In January 2024, the shareholders approved the proposal to amend the Charter and eliminate such Redemption Limitation (as defined below). If a shareholder vote is not required by law and we do not decide to hold a shareholder vote for business or other legal reasons, we will, pursuant to its Charter, conduct the redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and file tender offer documents with the SEC prior to completing a business combination. If, however, shareholder approval of the transaction is required by law, or we decide to obtain shareholder approval for business or legal reasons, we will offer to redeem shares in conjunction with a proxy solicitation pursuant to the proxy rules and not pursuant to the tender offer rules. Additionally, each Public Shareholder may elect to redeem their Public Shares irrespective of whether they vote for or against the proposed transaction. If we seek shareholder approval in connection with a business combination, the initial shareholders agreed to vote their 2,875,000 shares of the DMY’s Class B common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Founder Shares” or the “Class B Shares”) and any Public Shares purchased during or after the Initial Public Offering in favor of a business combination. In addition, the initial shareholders agreed to waive their redemption rights with respect to their Founder Shares and Public Shares in connection with the completion of a business combination. 

 

On January 2, 2024, we held a special meeting of its shareholders to extend the date by which we had to consummate our initial business combination (the “First Extension”), from January 4, 2024 to January 29, 2024 and to allow us, without another shareholder vote, by resolution of the board of directors, to elect to further extend such date up to twenty-three times for an additional one month each time, until up to December 29, 2025, only if our Sponsor or its designee would deposit into the Trust Account as a loan, (i) on or before January 4, 2024, with respect to the initial extension, an amount of $41,667, and (ii) one business day following the public announcement by us disclosing that the board of directors has determined to implement an additional monthly extension, with respect to each such additional extension, an amount of $50,000. In connection with the shareholder approval of the First Extension, an aggregate of 3,980,414 Public Shares were redeemed for an aggregate of approximately $42.0 million on January 4, 2024. Our board of directors elected to use all twenty-three monthly extensions and, accordingly, Harry You made an aggregate of $1,191,667 of contributions to the Trust Account.

 

Additionally, on January 2, 2024, we issued a non-interest bearing “Convertible Note” to Harry You with a principal amount up to $1.75 million in connection with Contributions that Mr. You may make to the Trust Account and for working capital purposes. The Convertible Note bears no interest and is repayable on the earlier of: (i) the date on which we consummate an initial business combination and (ii) the liquidation date. If we do not consummate a business combination before the end of the Combination Period, the Convertible Note will be repaid only from funds held outside of the Trust Account or will be forfeited, eliminated or otherwise forgiven. Upon the consummation of our initial business combination, up to $1,500,000 of the outstanding principal of the Convertible Note may be converted into warrants, at a price of $1.00 per warrant, at the option of Mr. You.

 

On December 15, 2025, our shareholders approved a further amendment to the Charter to extend the date by which we have to consummate our initial business combination (the “Second Extension”), from December 29, 2025 to January 29, 2026 and to allow DMY, without another shareholder vote, by resolution of the board of directors, to elect to further extend such date up to five times for an additional one month each time, until up to June 29, 2026. No further contributions are required in connection with the Second Extension. In connection with the shareholder approval of the Second Extension, an aggregate of 12,599 Public Shares were redeemed for an aggregate of approximately $147,778. As of the date of this Annual Report, the board of directors has extended the Combination Period, monthly, through March 29, 2026.

 

In connection with the shareholder meeting to approve the First Extension, our shareholders also approved proposals to (1) amend the Charter to provide for the right of a holder of Class B Shares to convert their Class B Shares into Class A Shares on a one-for-one basis at any time and from time to time at the election of the holder; (2) amend the Charter to eliminate from the Charter (i) the limitation that we may not redeem Public Shares in an amount that would cause our net tangible assets to be less than $5,000,001 and (ii) the limitation that we will not consummate a business combination unless we have net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001 (collectively, the “Redemption Limitation”); (3) amend the Charter to permit the board of directors, in its sole discretion, to elect to wind up our operations at any time, as determined by the board and included in a public announcement (the “Liquidation Amendment”); and (4) amend the Trust Agreement to reflect the amendments to the Charter. In connection with the shareholder meeting to approve the Second Extension, our shareholders also approved a proposal to amend the Trust Agreement to reflect the Second Extension.

 

If we are unable to complete a business combination within the Combination Period of March 29, 2026 or as extended to June 29, 2026, we 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 subject to lawfully available funds therefor, redeem one hundred percent (100%) of the Offering Shares in consideration of a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (A) the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest not previously released to us to pay our taxes (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), by (B) the total number of then outstanding Offering Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish rights of the Public Shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidating distributions, if any), subject to applicable law, and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the remaining shareholders and the board of directors in accordance with applicable law, dissolve and liquidate, subject in each case to our obligations under the MBCA to provide for claims of creditors and other requirements of applicable law.

Tax Withdrawals from Trust Account

 

In January 2024 and April 2024, we withdrew a total of approximately $1.9 million of funds from the Trust Account for purposes of payment of tax liabilities and tax estimates, and such funds were deposited into our operating account. Funds representing interest earned on the amounts held in the Trust Account are permitted to be withdrawn from the Trust Account for the payment of taxes under the Charter and the terms of the Trust Agreement. On April 17, 2024, we paid approximately $0.89 million for 2023 taxes, leaving approximately $0.97 million remaining to be used for upcoming tax estimates. We used approximately $0.69 million of the balance of the withdrawn funds for the payment of general operating expenses. Management determined that the use of funds was not in accordance with the Trust Agreement, and, in March 2025, our Sponsor contributed approximately $0.73 million to us representing the amount of such operating expenses plus approximately $0.04 million in respect of interest that would have been earned on the remaining amount of approximately $0.97 million for the period from the original withdrawals to the date of the contribution. We paid an aggregate of approximately $0.75 million for such tax obligations on March 21, 2025. On March 25, 2025, we re-contributed to the Trust Account approximately $0.22 million of the remaining amounts not used for payment of taxes plus approximately $0.04 million in respect of interest that would have been earned had such funds remained in the Trust Account.

 

Excise Tax

 

On August 16, 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (H.R. 5376) (the “IRA”) was signed into federal law. The IR Act provides for, among other things, a new 1% U.S. federal excise tax on certain repurchases (including certain redemptions) of stock by publicly traded domestic (i.e. U.S.) corporations and certain domestic subsidiaries of publicly traded foreign (i.e., non-U.S.) corporations (each, a “Covered Corporation”) occurring on or after January 1, 2023 (the “Excise Tax”). The Excise Tax is imposed on the repurchasing corporation itself, not its shareholders from which shares are repurchased. The amount of the Excise Tax is generally 1% of the fair market value of the shares repurchased at the time of the repurchase. For purposes of calculating the Excise Tax, repurchasing corporations are permitted to net the fair market value of certain new stock issuances against the fair market value of stock repurchases during the same taxable year, subject to certain exceptions.

 

The U.S. Department of Treasury (the “Treasury”) has been given authority to provide regulations and other guidance to carry out and prevent the abuse or avoidance of the Excise Tax. On June 28, 2024, the Treasury issued final regulations addressing the procedural aspects of the Excise Tax reporting and payment, and on November 24, 2025, the Treasury issued final regulations that provide substantive operating rules and computation for the Excise Tax.

 

Under the final regulations, redemptions of our Public Shares in January 2024 and December 2025 in connection with the First Extension and Second Extension are subject to the Excise Tax. Failure to timely pay the obligation in full would subject us to additional interest and penalties. In December 2025, DMY filed its excise tax return related to the January 2024 Redemption and paid an aggregate of approximately $570,000, consisting of approximately $420,000 of Excise Tax in connection with the First Extension and approximately $150,000 of related penalties and interest. The Excise Tax attributable to the January 2024 Redemption was recorded as a charge to accumulated deficit in accordance with ASC 480-10-S99-3A, while the related penalties and interest were recorded within general and administrative expenses in the accompanying statements of operations. As disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, filed with the SEC on April 3, 2025, the applicability of the Excise Tax to such redemptions was uncertain at 2024 year-end due to pending regulatory guidance and other factors. In 2025, based on additional guidance and analysis, management concluded that recognition of the obligation was appropriate.

 

The redemptions in connection with the Second Extension in December 2025 totaled $147,778, which did not exceed the $1 million de minimis threshold. Accordingly, no excise tax expense was incurred for the year ended December 31, 2025. 

 

Transfer of Listing

 

Pursuant to NYSE American Rules Section 119(b), we were required to complete our initial business combination within 36 months of the effective date of our Initial Public Offering registration statement, which date was September 29, 2025. Because we did not complete our initial business combination by such date, the trading of our DMY Class A Shares, DMY Public Warrants, and DMY Units was suspended at the closing of business on September 29, 2025, and our securities were removed from listing and registration on NYSE American exchange.

 

We began trading our Class A common stock and Company Public Warrants on the OTCQB Market and our DMY Units on the OTCID Market, each operated by The OTC Market Systems (the “OTC Market”), under the symbols “DMYY”, “DMYYW”, and “DMYYU”, respectively, effective at the open of trading on September 30, 2025.

 

We remain a reporting entity under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, with respect to continued disclosure of financial and operational information. However, there may be a very limited market in which our securities are traded, and the trading price of our securities may be adversely affected. We can provide no assurance that our securities will continue to trade on the OTC Market, whether broker-dealers will continue to provide public quotes of our securities on the OTC Market, or whether the trading volume of our securities will be sufficient to provide for an efficient trading market for existing and potential holders of our securities.

Proposed Business Combination with Horizon

 

On September 9, 2025, we entered into the Business Combination Agreement with Holdco, Horizon, Merger Sub 1, and Merger Sub 2. Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, (i) Holdco was converted from a Singapore private company to a Singapore public company and was renamed “Horizon Quantum Holdings Ltd.”, (ii) the Amalgamation will occur, whereby Horizon and Merger Sub 1 will amalgamate, with Horizon surviving as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Holdco, and (iii) the SPAC Merger will occur whereby Merger Sub 2 will merge with and into DMY, with DMY surviving as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Holdco. The consummation of the Proposed Business Combination will result in DMY’s and Horizon’s securityholders becoming securityholders of Holdco, which will become a public company.

 

Horizon is in the business of developing operating systems software and software development tools for quantum computing and related services.

 

The Business Combination Agreement and the Business Combination were unanimously approved by the boards of directors of each of DMY and Horizon. The closing of the Business Combination is subject to the receipt of the required approvals by DMY’s and Horizon’s shareholders and the satisfaction of other customary closing conditions, including the requirement to meet a minimum cash condition of $45 million plus transaction expenses.

 

In connection with the Business Combination, concurrently with the execution of the Business Combination Agreement, DMY, the Sponsor, Holdco and Horizon entered into a voting support agreement. Also concurrently with the execution of the Business Combination Agreement, DMY and Holdco entered into voting support agreements with Horizon and all shareholders of Horizon.

 

On December 4, 2025, in connection with the Business Combination, DMY, Holdco, and Horizon entered into PIPE Subscription Agreements, which were subsequently amended on March 9, 2026, with the PIPE Investors. Pursuant to the PIPE Subscription Agreements, as of December 31, 2025, Holdco agreed to issue and sell, and the PIPE Investors agreed to subscribe for and purchase, in a private placement, an aggregate investment of approximately $110.4 million of PIPE Shares, at a per share price equal to the redemption price. Subsequent to December 31, 2025, additional investors entered into subscription agreements increasing the aggregate PIPE commitment to approximately $111.9 million. The PIPE Investors may elect to satisfy their commitments through Class A Shares purchased in the open market or held prior to March 9, 2026. 

 

The PIPE Investment is expected to close substantially concurrently with the closing of the Business Combination, subject to the satisfaction of certain closing conditions set forth in the PIPE Subscription Agreements. We have engaged a financial advisor in connection with the Business Combination and related financing transactions. The advisor is entitled to transaction-based compensation contingent only upon completion of the Business Combination.

 

In connection with the PIPE Subscription Agreement, on December 4, 2025, Holdco, DMY, Horizon and IonQ, one of the PIPE Investors, entered into the IonQ Side Letter, as subsequently amended on March 9, 2026, which provides certain commercial and governance rights commensurate with IonQ’s strategic investment in Horizon, including the right to select one director to serve on the board of directors of Holdco, subject to certain independence and approval requirements, an 18-month lock-up on IonQ’s PIPE Shares, and certain notice and information rights for so long as IonQ maintains specified ownership thresholds.

 

On February 17, 2026, the SEC declared effective the registration statement on Form F-4 (333-292737) filed by Holdco and Horizon in connection with the Proposed Business Combination. On the same day, DMY filed its Definitive Proxy Statement and began mailing the Definitive Proxy Statement to its shareholders of record as of February 6, 2026. A special meeting of DMY’s shareholders was held on March 17, 2026. At the special meeting, DMY shareholders approved the Proposed Business Combination and related matters. If the closing conditions are satisfied or waived, we currently expect the closing to occur in March 2026. However, there can be no assurance that the Business Combination will be consummated on the currently anticipated timeline, or at all, as the closing remains subject to various conditions, including the level of stockholder redemptions and necessary regulatory approvals.

 

The Business Combination Agreement and related agreements are further described in our Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on September 9, 2025, and our Definitive Proxy Statement filed with the SEC on February 17, 2026, as supplemented on March 6, 2026. The PIPE Subscription Agreements, IonQ Side Letter, and related agreements are further described in our Current Reports on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on December 5, 2025, and March 9, 2026. Other than as specifically discussed, this Annual Report does not assume the closing of the Proposed Business Combination or the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement.

Conversion of Founder Shares

 

On September 15, 2025, the Sponsor distributed 416,266 Founder Shares to one of its members, pro rata, for no consideration. Such shares were then converted on a one-for-one basis into DMY Class A Shares and donated to charity. As a result, as of March 18, 2026, the Sponsor owned an aggregate of 1,163,484 Founder Shares in the form of DMY Class B Shares and other holders of Founder Shares hold an aggregate of 416,266 Founder Shares in the form of DMY Class A Shares.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources; Going Concern Consideration

 

As of December 31, 2025, we had minimal cash and working capital deficit of approximately $8.2 million. Further, we have incurred and expected to continue to incur significant costs in pursuit of our acquisition plans.

 

Prior to the consummation of the Initial Public Offering, our liquidity needs were satisfied through the payment of $25,000 from our Sponsor to purchase Founder Shares and a loan under the note in the amount of approximately $145,000 (the “Note”). We fully repaid the Note balance on October 4, 2022. The Note was no longer available to us after closing of our Initial Public Offering. Subsequent to the closing of the Initial Public Offering and the partial exercise of the over-allotment option granted to our underwriters, our liquidity needs have been satisfied through the net proceeds from the consummation of the Initial Public Offering and the private placement held outside of the Trust Account and advances from related parties (approximately $2.4 million in advances outstanding as of December 31, 2025).

 

In addition, in order to provide the Contribution and to finance transaction costs in connection with a business combination, we issued the Convertible Note to an affiliate of the Sponsor with a principal amount up to $1.75 million on January 2, 2024 as discussed above. As of December 31, 2025, we had an outstanding amount of $1,191,667 under the Convertible Note. All proceeds received under the Convertible Note were contributed into the Trust Account.

 

In connection with our management’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with FASB ASC 2014-15, “Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern,” our management has determined that the liquidity condition, mandatory liquidation, should a business combination not occur, and potential subsequent dissolution raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern through the earlier of the liquidation date of March 29, 2026 or the completion of the initial business combination. There is no assurance that our plans to consummate the Business Combination with Horizon or any other business combination will be successful or successful within the Combination Period. These financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

Risks and Uncertainties

 

Global economic conditions remain subject to significant uncertainty and volatility resulting from a combination of changes in laws or regulations, downturns in the financial markets or in economic conditions, inflation, fluctuations in interest rates, increases in tariffs, supply chain disruptions, declines in consumer confidence and spending, public health considerations. Ongoing and escalating military conflicts, including the conflict between Russia and Ukraine and conflicts in the Middle East, as well as the risk of further escalation or expansion of such conflicts, have contributed to heightened geopolitical instability and increased uncertainty in global markets.

 

These conditions have adversely affected, and may continue to adversely affect, global economic activity through, among other things, disruptions to energy and commodity markets, volatility in foreign exchange and capital markets, supply chain dislocations, increased cybersecurity risks, and reduced cross-border trade and investment. In addition, elevated interest rates, inflationary pressures, tightening credit conditions, and concerns regarding sovereign debt and fiscal stability in various jurisdictions have contributed to increased volatility and reduced liquidity in global financial markets.

 

The extent and duration of these conditions remain uncertain, and the ultimate impact on the global economy, financial markets, and business confidence cannot be predicted. Continued or worsening geopolitical tensions, adverse macroeconomic developments, or additional policy or regulatory responses could adversely affect our ability to complete the Proposed Business Combination with Horizon, or any other business combination.

 

105

 

 

We are a Covered Corporation, as that term is used in the IR Act, and expect to be subject to the Excise Tax in connection with our initial business combination. We expect that the closing of the Proposed Business Combination with Horizon and the redemption event in connection with such business combination will both occur during 2026, and, accordingly, that we will be subject to the Excise Tax. The extent of the Excise Tax that may be incurred would depend on a number of factors, including (i) the fair market value of the Class A Shares redeemed, (ii) the extent such redemptions could be treated as dividends and not repurchases, (iii) the nature and amount of the equity issued, if any, by DMY within the same taxable year of the redemption treated as a repurchase of stock, and (iv) the content of any other guidance from the U.S. Department of the Treasury. As noted above, the Excise Tax is imposed on the repurchasing corporation itself, not the shareholders from which shares are repurchased. The imposition of the Excise Tax could reduce the amount of cash available on hand to complete a business combination or to effect the redemptions of Class A Shares and thus may affect our ability to complete a business combination.

  

Results of Operations

 

Our entire activity from February 15, 2022 (inception) through December 31, 2025 is related to our formation and the preparation for our Initial Public Offering, and since the closing of our Initial Public Offering, the search for a prospective initial business combination. We will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of our initial business combination. We generate non-operating income in the form of investment income from the Trust Account. We will 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. Additionally, we recognize non-cash gains and losses within other income (expense) related to changes in recurring fair value measurement of our derivative liabilities at each reporting period.

 

For the year ended December 31, 2025, we had net loss of approximately $17.8 million, which consisted of approximately $4.4 million of general and administrative expenses (of which $120,000 was for administrative expenses paid to our Sponsor and approximately $3.1 million was for merger expenses) and approximately $163,000 of federal and state tax expenses, and approximately $14.3 million of loss from change in fair value of the derivative warrant liabilities, partially offset by approximately $1.1 million of interest income from operating account and cash and investments held in the Trust Account.

 

For the year ended December 31, 2024, we had net loss of approximately $819,000, which consisted of approximately $1.1 million of general and administrative expenses (of which $120,000 was for administrative expenses paid to our Sponsor), approximately $482,000 of federal and state tax expenses, and approximately $544,000 of gain from change in fair value of the derivative warrant liabilities. partially offset by approximately $1.3 million of interest income from operating account and investments held in the Trust Account.

 

Contractual Obligations

 

Administrative Services Agreement

 

On October 4, 2022, we entered into an agreement pursuant to which we agreed to pay our Sponsor $10,000 per month for office space, administrative and support services. Upon completion of a business combination or our liquidation, we will cease paying these monthly fees. We recorded $120,000 in connection with such fees during each of the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 in the accompanying statements of operations. We recorded an outstanding balance of $310,000 and $190,000 as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively in connection with such fees in accrued expenses in the accompanying balance sheets.

 

Our Sponsor, executive officers and directors, or any of their respective affiliates will be reimbursed for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with activities on our behalf such as identifying potential target businesses and performing due diligence on suitable business combinations. Our audit committee will review on a quarterly basis all payments that were made to our Sponsor, executive officers or directors, or our or their affiliates.

 

Registration Rights

 

The holders of Founder Shares, DMY Private Warrants and warrants that may be issued upon conversion of working capital loans and the Contributions (and any shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of the DMY Private Warrants or warrants issued upon conversion of the Working Capital Loans and the Contributions and upon conversion of the Founder Shares and the Overfunding Loans), will be entitled to registration rights pursuant to a registration and shareholder rights agreement signed upon the consummation of the Initial Public Offering. These holders will be entitled to certain demand and “piggyback” registration rights. We will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements. 

 

106

 

 

Underwriting Agreement

 

The underwriter was entitled to an underwriting discount of $0.14 per Unit, or approximately $0.8 million in the aggregate, paid upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering. An additional fee of $0.35 per Unit, or $2.1 million in the aggregate will be payable to the underwriter for deferred underwriting commissions. The deferred fee will become payable to the underwriter from the amounts held in the Trust Account solely in the event that we complete a business combination, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement.

 

The underwriter was entitled to an additional fee of approximately $45,000, which was paid upon closing of the over-allotment option, and approximately $112,000 in deferred underwriting commissions in connection with the consummation of the underwriter’s partial exercise of its over-allotment option.

 

Overfunding Loans

 

Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Sponsor extended the Overfunding Loan to DMY in an aggregate amount of $900,000. On October 11, 2022, simultaneously with the sale of the Over-Allotment Units, the Sponsor extended the Additional Overfunding Loan to DMY in an amount of $47,850, for an aggregate outstanding principal amount of $947,850 to be deposited in the Trust Account. Upon the closing of the initial business combination, the Overfunding Loans will be repaid or converted into DMY Class A Shares at a conversion price of $10.00 per share (or a combination of both), at the Sponsor’s discretion. If DMY does not complete an initial business combination, it will not repay the Overfunding Loans from amounts held in the Trust Account, and its proceeds will be distributed to the Public Shareholders; however, DMY may repay the Overfunding Loans if there are funds available outside the Trust Account to do so.

 

Convertible Promissory Note

 

In connection with the Contribution and advances our Sponsor may make in the future to our company for working capital expenses, on January 2, 2024, we issued a Convertible Note to an affiliate of our Sponsor with a principal amount up to $1.75 million. The Convertible Note bears no interest and is repayable in full upon the earlier of (a) the date of the consummation of our initial business combination, or (b) the date of our liquidation. If we do not consummate an initial business combination by the end of the Combination Period, the Convertible Note will be repaid only from funds held outside of the Trust Account or will be forfeited, eliminated or otherwise forgiven. Upon the consummation of our initial business combination, up to $1,500,000 of the outstanding principal of the Convertible Note may be converted into warrants, at a price of $1.00 per warrant, at the option of the Sponsor. Such warrants will have terms identical to the Private Placement Warrants.

 

As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, we had an outstanding amount of $1,191,667 and $641,667 under the Convertible Note, respectively. All proceeds received under the Convertible Note were contributed into the Trust Account.

 

The option to convert the Convertible Note into warrants qualifies as an embedded derivative under ASC 815 and is required to be recognized at fair value with subsequent changes in fair value recognized in our statements of operations each reporting period until the Convertible Note is repaid or converted. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the fair value of the embedded conversion option was de minimis.

Critical Accounting Estimates

 

The preparation of the financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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 the reported amounts of income and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. We have identified the following critical accounting policies:

 

Warrant Liabilities

 

The warrants issued in connection with the Company Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants were recognized as derivative liabilities in accordance with ASC 815. Accordingly, we recognized the warrant instruments as liabilities at fair value and will adjust the instruments to fair value at each reporting period. The liabilities are subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet date until exercised, and any change in fair value will be recognized in the statements of operations. The fair value of the Company Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants were initially measured at fair value using the Black-Scholes model and the Monte Carlo simulation model, respectively. Beginning in December 2022, the fair value of Company Public Warrants has been measured based on the listed market price of such Company Public Warrants. The estimated fair value of the Private Placement Warrants was subsequently determined using the Monte Carlo simulation method with Level 3 inputs. The determination of the fair value of the derivative warrant liabilities may be subject to change as more current information becomes available and accordingly the actual results could differ significantly.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements and Contractual Obligations

 

As of December 31, 2025, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as defined in Item 303(b)(1) of Regulation S-K and did not have any commitments or contractual obligations.

 

JOBS Act

 

On April 5, 2012, the JOBS Act was signed into law. The JOBS Act contains provisions that, among other things, relax certain reporting requirements for qualifying public companies. We qualify as an “emerging growth company” under the JOBS Act and are allowed to comply with new or revised accounting pronouncements based on the effective date for private (not publicly traded) companies. We elected to delay the adoption of new or revised accounting standards, and as a result, we may not comply with new or revised accounting standards on the relevant dates on which adoption of such standards is required for non-emerging growth companies. As a result, our financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with new or revised accounting pronouncements as of public company effective dates.

 

As an “emerging growth company”, we are not required to, among other things, (i) provide an auditor’s attestation report on our system of internal controls over financial reporting pursuant to Section 404, (ii) provide all of the compensation disclosure that may be required of non-emerging growth public companies under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, (iii) comply with any requirement that may be adopted by the PCAOB regarding mandatory audit firm rotation or a supplement to the auditor’s report providing additional information about the audit and the financial statements (auditor discussion and analysis), and (iv) disclose certain executive compensation related items such as the correlation between executive compensation and performance and comparisons of the CEO’s compensation to median employee compensation. These exemptions will apply for a period of five years following the completion of our Initial Public Offering or until we are no longer an “emerging growth company,” whichever is earlier.

Limitation on Liability and Indemnification of Directors and Officers

 

Our amended and restated constitution (“A&R Constitution”) contains provisions requiring that we indemnify our directors, officers, and executives against all costs, charges, losses, expenses, and liabilities incurred by them the execution of their duties or in relation thereto, and to advance expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred in defending any action, suit or proceeding for which indemnification would be allowed, all to the extent permissible under Singapore law and the A&R Constitution. In addition, the Company has entered into an indemnification agreement with each of its directors and executive officers that provides for indemnification of that director and/or executive officer against certain claims that arise by reason of their status or service as a director or executive officer. The Company has purchased directors and officers liability insurance to cover its indemnification obligations to its directors and executive officers as well as to cover directly certain claims made against its directors and executive officers.

 

Horizon Executive Officer and Director Compensation

 

The aggregate cash compensation paid by Horizon to its executive officers and directors who, following the consummation of the Business Combination, also serve as executive officers and directors of the Company, for the year ended December 31, 2025, was S$0.95 million. This amount includes S$0.07 million set aside or accrued to provide pension, severance, retirement or similar benefits or expenses. 285,300 employee share options, covering 285,300 Company Class A Shares, were awarded by Horizon to the same individuals during the year ended December 31, 2025.

Executive Officer and Director Compensation Following the Business Combination

 

Overview

 

The policies of the Company with respect to the compensation of its executive officers and directors following the Business Combination are administered by our Board in consultation with the compensation committee of the Board. The compensation decisions regarding our executives will be based on our need to retain those individuals who continue to perform at or above our expectations and to attract individuals with the skills necessary for us to achieve our business plan. We intend to establish an executive compensation program that is competitive with other similarly situated companies in our industry.

 

We believe that performance-based and equity-based compensation are an important foundation in executive compensation packages. We believe that performance-based and equity-based compensation can be an important component of the total executive compensation package for maximizing shareholder value while, at the same time, attracting, motivating and retaining high-quality executives.

 

Our executive officers receive a combination of cash and equity-based compensation. Our compensation committee is charged with performing an annual review of our cash and equity-based compensation programs to determine whether such programs provide appropriate incentives to our executive officers, including whether such incentives are aligned with those provided to similarly situated executive officers in its industry. In addition to the guidance provided by its compensation committee, we may utilize the services of third parties from time to time in connection with the hiring and compensation awarded to executive employees. This could include subscriptions to executive compensation surveys and other databases.

 

 Employment Agreements

 

In connection with the Business Combination, we entered into employment agreements with our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, and our Chief Legal and Compliance Officer, EVP of Strategic Initiatives and Company Secretary, which agreements include confidentiality and non-disclosure restrictions and non-competition and non-solicitation restrictions that apply during employment and for certain periods following a termination of employment. This summary is qualified in its entirety by the Form of Singapore Executive Officer Employment Agreement and Form of Irish Executive Officer Employment Agreement, which are included as Exhibits 4.10 and 4.14 to this prospectus, respectively.

 

Company Incentive Plan

 

We have adopted the Horizon Quantum Holdings Ltd. 2026 Equity Incentive Plan, which is referred to in this prospectus as the “2026 Plan.” The purpose of the 2026 Plan is to enhance our ability to attract, retain and motivate persons who make important contributions to us by providing these individuals with equity ownership opportunities and/or equity-linked compensatory opportunities. Equity awards and equity-linked compensatory opportunities are intended to assist in further aligning the interests of directors, employees, and consultants with those of our shareholders. The Plan Administrator may grant awards to any of our or our subsidiaries’ directors, employees or consultants. Only employees are eligible to receive incentive share options.

 

Material Terms of the 2026 Plan

 

The material terms of the 2026 Plan are summarized below; however, the summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the 2026 Plan, which is included as Exhibit 4.9 to this prospectus.

 

112

 

 

Administration

 

The 2026 Plan will be administered by the Board or one more committees or subcommittees of the Board, which will be comprised, unless otherwise determined by the Board, solely of not less than two members who will be non-employee directors (a “Committee”), or any officer that has been delegated administrative authority pursuant to the 2026 Plan for the duration such delegation is in effect (collectively, the “Plan Administrator”). The Plan Administrator will have full power to (i) designate participants; (ii) determine the type or types of awards to be granted to a participant; (iii) determine the number of shares to be covered by, or with respect to which payments, rights, or other matters are to be calculated in connection with, awards; (iv) determine the terms and conditions of any award; (v) determine whether, to what extent, and under what circumstances awards may be settled or exercised in cash, shares, other securities, other awards or other property, or canceled, forfeited, or suspended, and the method or methods by which awards may be settled, exercised, canceled, forfeited, or suspended; (vi) determine whether, to what extent, and under what circumstances the delivery of cash, shares, other securities, other awards or other property and other amounts payable with respect to an award shall be made; (vii) interpret, administer, reconcile any inconsistency in, settle any controversy regarding, correct any defect in and/or complete any omission in the 2026 Plan and any instrument or agreement relating to, or award granted under, the 2026 Plan; (viii) establish, amend, suspend, or waive any rules and regulations and appoint such agents as the Plan Administrator shall deem appropriate for the proper administration of the 2026 Plan; (ix) accelerate the vesting or exercisability of, payment for or lapse of restrictions on, awards; (x) to reprice existing awards or to grant awards in connection with or in consideration of the cancellation of an outstanding award with a higher price; and (xi) make any other determination and take any other action that the Plan Administrator deems necessary or desirable for the administration of the 2026 Plan.

 

Share Reserve

 

The maximum aggregate number of Company Class A Shares that may be issued under the 2026 Plan is the sum of (A) ten percent (10%) of the sum of (x) the total number of Company Shares issued and outstanding immediately after the Closing, plus (y) the total number of Company Shares issuable upon conversion, exercise, or exchange of convertible, exercisable, or exchangeable securities outstanding immediately after the Closing, plus (B) an increase commencing on January 1, 2026 and continuing annually on each anniversary thereof through and including January 1, 2035, equal to the lesser of (i) five percent (5%) of the shares available for issuance under the 2026 Plan as of the last day of the immediately preceding calendar year and (ii) such smaller number of shares as determined by the Board or the Committee.

 

Ten percent (10%) of the sum of (x) the total number of Company Shares issued and outstanding immediately after the Closing, plus (y) the total number of Company Shares issuable upon conversion, exercise, or exchange of convertible, exercisable, or exchangeable securities outstanding immediately after the Closing may be issued upon the exercise of incentive share options.

 

Shares issuable under the 2026 Plan may be newly issued or repurchased shares. Upon payment in shares pursuant to the exercise or settlement of an award, the number of shares available for issuance under the 2026 Plan shall be reduced only by the number of shares actually issued in such payment. If a participant pays the exercise price (or purchase price, if applicable) of an award through the tender of shares, or if the shares are tendered or withheld to satisfy any tax withholding obligations, the number of shares so tendered or withheld shall again be available for issuance pursuant to future Awards under the 2026 Plan, although such shares shall not again become available for issuance as incentive share options. Shares shall not be deemed to have been issued pursuant to the 2026 Plan with respect to any portion of an award that is settled in cash. Shares underlying any awards under the 2026 Plan that are settled in cash, forfeited, canceled, repurchased, held back upon exercise of an option or settlement of an award to cover the exercise price or tax withholding satisfied without the issuance of shares or otherwise terminated (other than by exercise) will be added back to the shares available for issuance under the 2026 Plan, although shares shall not again become available for issuance as incentive share options. Additionally, shares issued as “substitute awards” (as defined in the 2026 Plan) will not count against the 2026 Plan’s share limit.

 

The share reserve described herein may be subject to certain adjustments in the event of certain changes in the capitalization of the Company (see “Equitable Adjustments” below).

 

Annual Limitation on Awards to Non-Employee Directors

 

The 2026 Plan contains a limitation whereby the value of all awards under the 2026 Plan and all other cash compensation paid by the Company to any non-employee director may not exceed $1,000,000 for the first calendar year a non-employee director is initially appointed to the Board, and $750,000 in any other calendar year.

 

113

 

 

Types of Awards

 

The 2026 Plan provides for the grant of share options, share appreciation rights, restricted shares, restricted share units, performance awards, dividend equivalent awards, and other share- or cash-based awards (collectively, “awards”).

 

Share Options. The 2026 Plan permits the granting of both options intended to qualify as incentive share options under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) and options that do not so qualify. Options granted under the 2026 Plan will be nonqualified options if they fail to qualify as incentive share options or exceed the annual limit on incentive share options. Incentive share options may only be granted to employees of the Company and its subsidiaries. Nonqualified options may be granted to any persons eligible to receive awards under the 2026 Plan.

 

The exercise price of each option will be determined by the Plan Administrator, but such exercise price may not be less than 100% of the fair market value of one Company Class A Ordinary Share on the date of grant if the grant could result in adverse tax consequences or, in the case of an incentive share option granted to a 10% or greater shareholder, 110% of such share’s fair market value. The term of each option will be set by the Plan Administrator and may not exceed ten (10) years after the date it is granted to any employee of the Company or its related corporations (as defined in the Singapore Companies Act) (or five (5) years for an incentive share option granted to a 10% or greater shareholder, or five (5) years after the date any option is granted to any other participant). The Plan Administrator will determine at what time or times each option may be exercised, including the ability to accelerate the vesting of such options.

 

Upon exercise of an option, the exercise price must be paid in full either in cash, check or, with approval of the Plan Administrator, by surrender of other shares that meet the conditions established by the Plan Administrator to avoid adverse accounting consequences to the Company, by broker-assisted cashless exercise, by delivery of a notice of “net exercise” to the Company, such other consideration and method of payment to the extent permitted by applicable law, or any combination of the foregoing methods of payment.

 

Share Appreciation Rights. The Plan Administrator may award share appreciation rights subject to such conditions and restrictions as it may determine. Share appreciation rights entitle the recipient to shares or cash, equal to the value of the appreciation in the Company’s share price over the exercise price, as set by the Plan Administrator and which will be at least equal to the fair market value of one Company Class A Ordinary Share on the grant date. The term of each share appreciation right will be set by the Plan Administrator and may not exceed ten years from the date of grant. The Plan Administrator will determine at what time or times each share appreciation right may be exercised, including the ability to accelerate the vesting of such share appreciation rights.

 

Restricted Shares. A restricted share award is an award of shares that vest in accordance with the terms and conditions established by the Plan Administrator. The Plan Administrator will determine the persons to whom grants of restricted share awards are made, the number of restricted shares to be awarded, the price (if any) to be paid for the restricted shares, the time or times within which awards of restricted shares may be subject to forfeiture, the vesting schedule and rights to acceleration thereof, and all other terms and conditions of restricted share awards. Unless otherwise provided in the applicable award agreement, a participant generally will have the rights and privileges of a shareholder as to such restricted shares, including without limitation the right to vote such restricted shares and the right to receive cash dividends, if applicable.

 

114

 

 

Restricted Share Units. Restricted share units are the right to receive shares at a future date in accordance with the terms of such grant upon the attainment of certain conditions specified by the Plan Administrator. Restrictions or conditions could include, but are not limited to, the attainment of performance goals, continuous service with the Company or its subsidiaries, the passage of time or other restrictions or conditions. The Plan Administrator determines the persons to whom grants of restricted share units are made, the number of restricted share units to be awarded, the time or times within which awards of restricted share units may be subject to forfeiture, the vesting schedule, and rights to acceleration thereof, and all other terms and conditions of the restricted share unit awards. The value of the restricted share units may be paid in shares, cash, other securities, other property, or a combination of the foregoing, as determined by the Plan Administrator.

 

The holders of restricted share units will have no voting rights. Prior to settlement or forfeiture, restricted share units awarded under the 2026 Plan may, at the Plan Administrator’s discretion, provide for a right to dividend equivalents.

 

Performance Awards. The Plan Administrator has the authority to grant share options, share appreciation rights, restricted shares, or restricted share units as a performance award, which means that such awards vest at least in part upon the attainment of one or more specified performance criteria. For each performance period, the Plan Administrator will have the sole authority to select the length of such performance period, the types of performance award to be granted, the performance criteria that will be used to establish the performance goals, and the level(s) of performance which shall result in a performance award being earned. At any time, the Plan Administrator may adjust or modify the calculation of a performance goal for a performance period, to appropriately reflect any circumstance or event that occurs during a performance period and that in the Plan Administrator’s sole discretion, warrants adjustment or modification. Depending on the type of performance award granted, the previously discussed terms and conditions will also apply to a performance award.

 

Performance criteria for a performance award may be based on the attainment of specific levels of performance of the Company (and/or one or more subsidiaries, divisions, business segments or operational units, or any combination of the foregoing) and may include, without limitation, any of the following: (i) net earnings or net income (before or after taxes); (ii) basic or diluted earnings per share (before or after taxes); (iii) revenue or revenue growth (measured on a net or gross basis); (iv) gross profit or gross profit growth; (v) operating profit (before or after taxes); (vi) return measures (including, but not limited to, return on assets, capital, invested capital, equity, or sales); (vii) cash flow (including, but not limited to, operating cash flow, free cash flow, net cash provided by operations and cash flow return on capital); (viii) financing and other capital raising transactions (including, but not limited to, sales of the Company’s equity or debt securities); (ix) earnings before or after taxes, interest, depreciation and/or amortization; (x) gross or operating margins; (xi) productivity ratios; (xii) share price (including, but not limited to, growth measures and total shareholder return); (xiii) expense targets; (xiv) margins; (xv) productivity and operating efficiencies; (xvi) customer satisfaction; (xvii) customer growth; (xviii) working capital targets; (xix) measures of economic value added; (xx) inventory control; (xxi) enterprise value; (xxii) sales; (xxiii) debt levels and net debt; (xxiv) combined ratio; (xxv) timely launch of new facilities; (xxvi) client retention; (xxvii) employee retention; (xxviii) timely completion of new product rollouts; (xxix) cost targets; (xxx) reductions and savings; (xxxi) productivity and efficiencies; (xxxii) strategic partnerships or transactions; and (xxxiii) personal targets, goals or completion of projects. Any one or more of the performance criteria may be used on an absolute or relative basis to measure the performance of the Company and/or one or more subsidiaries as a whole or any business unit(s) of the Company and/or one or more subsidiaries or any combination thereof, or any of the above performance criteria may be compared to the performance of a selected group of comparison or peer companies, or a published or special index that the Plan Administrator deems appropriate, or as compared to various stock market indices.

 

Dividend Equivalents. An award of dividend equivalents entitles the holder to be credited with an amount equal to all dividends paid on one share while the holder’s tandem award is outstanding. Dividend equivalents may be paid currently or credited to an account for the participant, settled in cash or shares, and subject to the same restriction on transferability and forfeitability as the award with respect to which the dividend equivalents are granted.

 

Other Share- or Cash-Based Awards. Other share-based awards may be granted either alone, in addition to, or in tandem with, other awards granted under the 2026 Plan and/or cash awards made outside of the 2026 Plan. The Plan Administrator shall have authority to determine the service providers to whom and the time or times at which other share-based awards shall be made, the amount of such other share-based awards, and all other conditions of the other share-based awards including any dividend and/or voting rights. The Plan Administrator may grant cash awards in such amounts and subject to such performance or other vesting criteria and terms and conditions as the Plan Administrator may determine.

 

115

 

 

Repricing

 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the 2026 Plan, unless a repricing is approved by shareholders, in no case may the Plan Administrator (i) amend an outstanding option or share appreciation right to reduce the exercise price of the award, (ii) cancel, exchange, or surrender an outstanding option or share appreciation right in exchange for cash or other awards for the purpose of repricing the award, or (iii) cancel, exchange, or surrender an outstanding option or share appreciation right in exchange for an option or share appreciation right with an exercise price that is less than the exercise price of the original award.

 

Tax Withholding

 

Participants in the 2026 Plan are responsible for the payment of any federal, state, or local taxes that the Company or its subsidiaries are required by law to withhold upon the exercise of options or share appreciation rights or vesting of other awards. Without limitation, the Plan Administrator may, in its sole discretion, permit a participant to satisfy, in whole or in part, the foregoing withholding liability by (A) the delivery of shares (which are not subject to any pledge or other security interest) owned by the participant having a fair market value equal to such withholding liability, (B) having the Company withhold from the number of shares otherwise issuable or deliverable pursuant to the exercise or settlement of the award a number of shares with a fair market value equal to such withholding liability, (C) deducting an amount sufficient to satisfy such withholding obligation from any payment of any kind otherwise due to a participant, (D) accepting a payment from the participant in cash, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, or by check made payable to the order of the Company, or (E) if there is a public market for shares at the time the withholding obligation for a tax obligation is to be satisfied, selling shares issued pursuant to the award creating the withholding obligation. The amount withheld pursuant to any of the foregoing payment forms will be determined by the Company and may be up to (but not in excess of) the aggregate amount of such obligations based on the maximum statutory withholding rates in the participant’s jurisdiction for all tax obligations that are applicable to such taxable income.

 

Equitable Adjustments

 

In the event of a merger, consolidation, recapitalization, share split, reverse share split, reorganization, split-up, spin-off, combination, repurchase or other change in corporate structure affecting the shares, the Plan Administrator will adjust (i) the number and class of shares which may be delivered under the 2026 Plan (or number and kind of other securities or other property); (ii) the number, class and price (including the exercise or strike price of options and share appreciation rights) of shares subject to outstanding awards, (iii) any applicable performance criteria, performance period, and other terms and conditions of outstanding performance awards, and (iv) the 2026 Plan’s numerical limits.

 

Change in Control

 

In the event of any change in control (as defined in the 2026 Plan), each outstanding Award shall be assumed or an equivalent award substituted by the acquiring or successor corporation or a parent of the acquiring or successor corporation. Unless determined otherwise by the Administrator, in the event that the successor corporation refuses to assume or substitute an Award, (A) the participant shall fully vest in and have the right to exercise the Award as to all of the shares, including those as to which it would not otherwise be vested or exercisable; (B) all applicable restrictions will lapse; and (C) all performance objectives and other vesting criteria will be deemed achieved at targeted levels. If an Option or SAR is not assumed or substituted in the event of a change in control, the Administrator shall notify the participant in writing or electronically that the Option or SAR shall be exercisable, to the extent vested, for a period of up to fifteen (15) days from the date of such notice, and the Option or SAR shall terminate upon the expiration of such period.

 

Transferability of Awards

 

Unless determined otherwise by the Plan Administrator, an award may not be sold, pledged, assigned, hypothecated, transferred, or disposed of in any manner, except to a participant’s estate or legal representative, and may be exercised, during the lifetime of the participant, only by the participant.

 

116

 

 

Term

 

The 2026 Plan became effective upon the Closing, and, unless terminated earlier, the 2026 Plan will continue in effect for a term of ten (10) years.

 

Amendment and Termination

 

The Board may amend, alter, suspend or terminate the 2026 Plan at any time. No amendment or termination of the 2026 Plan will materially impair the rights of any participant, unless mutually agreed otherwise between the participant and the Company. Approval of the shareholders shall be required for any amendment, where required by applicable law, as well as (i) to increase the number of shares available for issuance under the 2026 Plan and (ii) to change the persons or class of persons eligible to receive awards under the 2026 Plan.

 

Recoupment Policy

 

All awards granted under the 2026 Plan, all amounts paid under the 2026 Plan, and all shares issued under the 2026 Plan shall be subject to reduction, recoupment, clawback, or recovery by the Company in accordance with applicable laws and with company policy.

 

Form S-8

 

We intend to file a registration statement on Form S-8 with the SEC covering the shares issuable under the 2026 Plan.

 

Material United States Federal Income Tax Considerations

 

The following is a general summary under current law of the material U.S. federal income tax considerations related to awards and certain transactions under the 2026 Plan, based upon the current provisions of the Code and regulations promulgated thereunder. This summary deals with the general federal income tax principles that apply and is provided only for general information. It does not describe all federal tax consequences under the 2026 Plan, nor does it describe state, local, or foreign income tax consequences or federal employment tax consequences. The rules governing the tax treatment of such awards are quite technical, so the following discussion of tax consequences is necessarily general in nature and is not complete. In addition, statutory provisions are subject to change, as are their interpretations, and their application may vary in individual circumstances. This summary is not intended as tax advice to participants, who should consult their own tax advisors.

 

The 2026 Plan is not qualified under the provisions of Section 401(a) of the Code and is not subject to any of the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended. The Company’s ability to realize the benefit of any tax deductions described below depends on the Company’s generation of taxable income as well as the requirement of reasonableness and the satisfaction of the Company’s tax reporting obligations.

 

117

 

 

Incentive Share Options. No taxable income is generally realized by the optionee upon the grant or exercise of an incentive share option. If shares issued to an optionee pursuant to the exercise of an incentive share option are sold or transferred after two years from the date of grant and after one year from the date of exercise, then generally (i) upon sale of such shares, any amount realized in excess of the option exercise price (the amount paid for the Shares) will be taxed to the optionee as a long-term capital gain, and any loss sustained will be a long-term capital loss, and (ii) neither the Company nor its subsidiaries will be entitled to any deduction for federal income tax purposes; provided that such incentive share option otherwise meets all of the technical requirements of an incentive share option. The exercise of an incentive share option will give rise to an item of tax preference that may result in alternative minimum tax liability for the optionee.

 

If the shares acquired upon the exercise of an incentive share option are disposed of prior to the expiration of the two-year and one-year holding periods described above (a “disqualifying disposition”), generally (i) the optionee will realize ordinary income in the year of disposition in an amount equal to the excess (if any) of the fair market value of the Company Class A Shares at exercise (or, if less, the amount realized on a sale of such Shares) over the option exercise price thereof, and (ii) the Company or its subsidiaries will be entitled to deduct such amount. Special rules will apply where all or a portion of the exercise price of the incentive share option is paid by tendering shares.

 

If an incentive share option is exercised at a time when it no longer qualifies for the tax treatment described above, the option is treated as a nonqualified option. Generally, an incentive share option will not be eligible for the tax treatment described above if it is exercised more than three months following termination of employment (or one year in the case of termination of employment by reason of disability). In the case of termination of employment by reason of death, the three-month rule does not apply.

 

Nonqualified Options. No income is generally realized by the optionee at the time a nonqualified option is granted. Generally, (i) at exercise, ordinary income is realized by the optionee in an amount equal to the difference between the option exercise price and the fair market value of the Company Class A Shares issued on the date of exercise, and the Company or its subsidiaries receive a tax deduction for the same amount, and (ii) at disposition, appreciation or depreciation after the date of exercise is treated as either short-term or long-term capital gain or loss depending on how long the shares have been held. Special rules will apply where all or a portion of the exercise price of the nonqualified option is paid by tendering shares. Upon exercise, the optionee will also be subject to Social Security taxes on the excess of the fair market value of the Company Class A Shares over the exercise price of the option.

 

Share Appreciation Rights, Restricted Shares, Restricted Share Units, Dividend Equivalent Awards and Other Share- and Cash-Based Awards. The current federal income tax consequences of other awards authorized under the 2026 Plan generally follow certain basic patterns: (i) share appreciation rights are taxed and deductible in substantially the same manner as nonqualified options; (ii) nontransferable restricted shares subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture results in income recognition equal to the excess of the fair market value of the Company Class A Shares over the price paid, if any, only at the time the restrictions lapse (unless the recipient elects to accelerate recognition as of the date of grant through a Section 83(b) election); and (iii) restricted share units, dividend equivalents, and other share- or cash-based awards are generally subject to tax at the time of payment. The Company or its subsidiaries generally should be entitled to a federal income tax deduction in an amount equal to the ordinary income recognized by the participant at the time the participant recognizes such income.

 

The participant’s basis for the determination of gain or loss upon the subsequent disposition of shares acquired from a share appreciation right, restricted shares, restricted share unit, dividend equivalent award, or other share-based award will be the amount paid for such shares plus any ordinary income recognized when the shares were originally delivered, and the participant’s capital gain holding period for those shares will begin on the day after they are transferred to the participant.

 

Performance Awards. The tax consequences of performance awards will generally mirror those of the underlying award type, each of which is discussed above.

The vesting of any portion of an award that is accelerated due to the occurrence of a change in control (such as a sale event) may cause all or a portion of the payments with respect to such accelerated awards to be treated as “parachute payments” as defined in the Code. Any such parachute payments may be non-deductible to either the Company or its subsidiaries, in whole or in part, and may subject the recipient to a non-deductible 20% federal excise tax on all or a portion of such payment (in addition to other taxes ordinarily payable).

 

Section 409A. The foregoing description assumes that Section 409A of the Code does not apply to an award under the 2026 Plan. In general, share options and share appreciation rights are exempt from Section 409A if the exercise price per share is at least equal to the fair market value per share of the underlying shares at the time the option or share appreciation right was granted. Restricted share awards are not generally subject to Section 409A. Restricted share units are subject to Section 409A unless they are settled within two and one-half months after the end of the later of (1) the end of the Company’s fiscal year in which vesting occurs or (2) the end of the calendar year in which vesting occurs. If an award is subject to Section 409A and the provisions for the exercise or settlement of that award do not comply with Section 409A, then the participant would be required to recognize ordinary income whenever a portion of the award vested (regardless of whether it had been exercised or settled). This amount would also be subject to a 20% federal tax and premium interest in addition to the federal income tax at the participant’s usual marginal rate for ordinary income.

 

2026 Employee Share Purchase Plan

 

The board of directors and our stockholders have approved and adopted the Horizon Quantum Holdings Ltd. 2026 Employee Share Purchase Plan (the “ESPP”). The following summary describes the material terms of the ESPP; however, the summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the ESPP, which is included as Exhibit 4.10 to this prospectus.

 

The ESPP will provide our employees and employees of participating subsidiaries with an opportunity to acquire a proprietary interest in the Company through the purchase of Company Class A Shares. The ESPP has two components — one which is intended to qualify as an “employee stock purchase plan” under Section 423 of the Code and one which is not intended to so qualify.

 

Share reserve. The initial maximum aggregate number of shares that may be purchased under the ESPP will be equal to one and one-half percent (1.5%) of the sum of (x) the total number of Company Shares issued and outstanding immediately after the Closing, plus (y) the total number of Company Shares issuable upon conversion, exercise, or exchange of convertible, exercisable, or exchangeable securities outstanding immediately after the Closing, which shall increase on January 1 of each of 2026 through 2035, by the lesser of (i) one percent (1%) of the shares available for issuance under the ESPP as of the last day of the immediately preceding calendar year, and (ii) such lesser number of shares as determined by the Board (collectively, the “ESPP Share Reserve”). Provided, subject to adjustment as discussed below, the share reserve can be no more than 50,000,000 Company Shares.

 

Administration. The Board or a committee appointed by the Board will administer the ESPP subject to the terms and conditions of the ESPP (the “ESPP Administrator”). Among other things, the ESPP Administrator will have the authority to (i) make rules and regulations for the administration of the ESPP; (ii) interpret the terms and provisions of the ESPP; (iii) make all determinations it deems advisable for the administration of the ESPP; (iv) decide all disputes arising in connection with the ESPP; and (v) otherwise supervise the administration of the ESPP.

 

Eligibility. Employees eligible to participate in any offering pursuant to the ESPP generally include any employee who is employed by the Company or its subsidiaries at the beginning of the applicable offering period. However, any employee who owns (or is deemed to own as a result of attribution) 5% or more of the total combined voting power or value of all classes of the Company’s capital shares, or the capital shares of one of the Company’s qualifying subsidiaries in the future, or who will own such amount as a result of participation in the ESPP, will not be eligible to participate in the ESPP. The ESPP Administrator may impose additional restrictions on eligibility from time to time as set forth in the ESPP.

 

119

 

 

Offering Periods; Enrollment. Under the ESPP, eligible employees will be offered the option to purchase Company Class A Shares at a discount over a series of offering periods. the Company shall make one or more offerings to employees to subscribe for or purchase shares under the ESPP. Offerings shall begin at such time and on such dates as the ESPP Administrator shall determine, or the first business day thereafter. Each offering commencement date shall begin a six (6)-month plan period (the “Plan Period”) during which payroll deductions shall be made and held for the purchase of shares at the end of the Plan Period. However, the ESPP Administrator may, at its discretion, choose a different Plan Period of not more than twelve (12) months for offerings. New participants may enroll by submitting an enrollment form prior to the start of an offering period. Once an employee is enrolled, participation will be automatic in subsequent offering periods. An employee’s participation automatically ends upon a termination of employment for any reason, and an employee may withdraw from an offering period at any time without affecting his or her eligibility to participate in future offering periods.

 

Offerings; payroll deductions. Under the ESPP, eligible employees will be offered the option to purchase Company Class A Shares at a discount over a series of offering periods by accumulating funds through payroll deductions of between one percent (1%) and fifteen percent (15%) of the employee’s compensation. Unless otherwise determined by the ESPP Administrator, the purchase price for shares purchased under the ESPP will be eighty-five percent (85%) of the lesser of the fair market value of the Company Class A Shares on (i) the first business day of the applicable offering period and (ii) the date of purchase. However, no participant may purchase more than that number of shares equal to that whole number determined by multiplying $2,083 by the number of full months in the Plan Period divided by the closing price as published in the Wall Street Journal (or another source selected by the ESPP Administrator) on the offering commencement date. The ESPP Administrator, in its discretion, may set a lower maximum amount of shares which may be purchased. In addition, no participant will have the right to purchase shares in an amount, when aggregated with purchase rights under all of the Company’s employee share purchase plans that are also in effect in the same calendar years, that has a fair market value of more than $25,000, determined as of the first day of the applicable offering period, for each calendar year in which that right is outstanding.

 

Subject to certain limitations, the number of shares that a participant purchases in each offering period is determined by dividing the total amount of payroll deductions withheld from the participant’s compensation during the offering period by the purchase price. In general, if an employee ceases to be a participant in the ESPP, the employee’s option to purchase shares under the ESPP will be automatically terminated, and the amount of the employee’s accumulated payroll deductions or other contributions will be refunded.

 

Adjustments upon recapitalization. If the number of outstanding Company Shares is changed by a share dividend, recapitalization, share split, reverse share split, subdivision, combination, reclassification, or similar change in our capital structure without consideration, then the ESPP Administrator will proportionately adjust the number and class of our ordinary shares that are available under the ESPP, the purchase price and number of shares any participant has elected to purchase under the ESPP, as well as the maximum number of shares which may be issued to participants under the ESPP.

 

Reorganization Events. If we experience a “reorganization event” (as defined in the ESPP), the ESPP Administrator may take any one or more of the following actions regarding options outstanding during an offering on such terms as the ESPP Administrator determines: (i) provide that options shall be assumed, or substantially equivalent options shall be substituted, by the acquiring or succeeding corporation (or an affiliate thereof), (ii) provide that all outstanding options shall be terminated immediately prior to the consummation of such reorganization event and that all such outstanding options shall become exercisable to the extent of accumulated payroll deductions as of a date specified by the ESPP Administrator, (iii) provide that all outstanding options will be cancelled as of a date prior to the effective date of the Reorganization Event and that all accumulated payroll deductions will be returned to participating employees on such date, (iv) change the last day of the offering period to be the date of the consummation of such Reorganization Event and make or provide for a cash payment to each employee, (v) provide that, in connection with a liquidation or dissolution of the Company, options will convert into the right to receive liquidation proceeds (net of the option price thereof), and (vi) any combination of the foregoing.

 

Transferability. Rights under the ESPP are not transferable other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution.

 

Amendment; termination. The Board may, at any time and from time to time, amend or suspend the ESPP or any portion thereof, except that (a) if the approval of any such amendment by the shareholders of the Company is required by Section 423 of the Code, such amendment will not be effected without such approval, and (b) in no event may any amendment be made that would cause the ESPP to fail to comply with Section 423 of the Code. The ESPP may be terminated at any time by the Board, and upon such termination, all amounts in the accounts of participating employees will be promptly refunded.

 

120

 

 

Federal Income Tax Information

 

The following is a summary of some of the material federal income tax consequences to participants in the ESPP under current federal tax laws. This summary deals with the general tax principles that apply and is provided only for general information. Certain types of taxes, such as state and local income taxes, are not discussed. Tax laws are complex and subject to change and may vary depending on individual circumstances and from locality to locality. The summary does not discuss all aspects of income taxation that may be relevant to a participant in light of his or her personal investment circumstances. This summarized tax information is not tax advice.

  

The 423 Component of the ESPP, and the right of participants to make purchases thereunder, is intended to qualify under the provisions of Section 423 of the Code. The ESPP is not subject to any provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974.

 

Assuming the 423 Component qualifies under the Code, no taxable income will be recognized by a participant, and no deductions will be allowable to the Company, upon either the grant or the exercise of the purchase rights. Taxable income will not be recognized until there is a sale or other disposition of the shares acquired under the ESPP or in the event the participant should die while still owning the purchased shares.

 

If the participant sells or otherwise disposes of the purchased shares within two years after the start date of the offering period in which such shares were acquired or within one year after the purchase date of those shares, then the participant will recognize ordinary income in the year of sale or disposition equal to the amount by which the fair market value of the shares on the purchase date exceeded the purchase price paid for those shares, and the Company will be entitled to an income tax deduction, for the taxable year in which such sale or disposition occurs, equal in amount to such excess.

 

If the participant sells or disposes of the purchased shares more than two years after the start date of the offering period in which the shares were acquired and more than one year after the purchase date of those shares, then the participant will recognize ordinary income in the year of sale or disposition equal to the lesser of (i) the amount by which the fair market value of the shares on the sale or disposition date exceeded the purchase price paid for those shares or (ii) 15 percent (or such other discount determined by the ESPP Administrator, but not more than 15 percent) of the fair market value of the shares on the start date of that offering period, and any additional gain upon the disposition will be taxed as a long-term capital gain. The Company will not be entitled to an income tax deduction with respect to such sale or disposition.

 

If the participant still owns the purchased shares at the time of death, then the participant will recognize ordinary income at such time equal to the lesser of (i) the amount by which the fair market value of the shares on the date of death exceeds the purchase price or (ii) 15 percent (or such other discount determined by the ESPP Administrator, but not more than 15 percent) of the fair market value of the shares on the start date of the offering period in which those shares were acquired.

 

Employees

 

As of December 31, 2025, Horizon had a 44 person-strong team. Approximately 55% of full-time employees are based in Singapore and approximately 30% of full-time employees are based in Dublin, Ireland. Horizon also engages a small number of independent contractors and staff hired through employer of record service providers (approximately 15%) to supplement its workforce. A majority of Horizon’s employees are engaged in research and development and related functions, and a significant portion of its research and development employees hold advanced engineering and scientific degrees, including many from the world’s top universities.

 

To date, Horizon has not experienced any work stoppages, and none of its employees are subject to a collective bargaining agreement or represented by a labor union.

 

Director Independence

 

Because our securities are listed on Nasdaq, we will adhere to the rules of Nasdaq in determining whether a director is independent. The Board has undertaken a review of the independence of the members of the Board and determined that Harry You, Danielle Lambert, and Jill Turner qualify as “independent” as defined under the applicable Nasdaq rules.

 

The Nasdaq definition of “independence” includes a series of objective tests, such as the director or director nominee is not, and was not during the last three years, an employee of the Company and has not received certain payments from, or engaged in various types of business dealings with, the Company. In addition, as further required by the Nasdaq Listing Rules, the Board will make a subjective determination as to each director nominee’s independence and expects to determine that no relationships exist which, in the opinion of the Board, would interfere with such individual’s exercise of independent judgment in carrying out his or her responsibilities as a director. In making these determinations, the Board reviews and discusses information provided by the directors with regard to each director’s business and personal activities as they may relate to the Company and its management.

 

Our Board is currently comprised of a majority of “independent directors” as defined in the rules of Nasdaq and applicable SEC rules.

 

121

 

 

Controlled Company

 

Dr. Fitzsimons holds approximately 65.0% of the voting power of our voting securities for the election of directors. As a result, we are a controlled company within the meaning of the Nasdaq rules and we may qualify for exemptions from certain corporate governance requirements.

 

Under Nasdaq rules, a controlled company is exempt from certain corporate governance requirements, including:

 

the requirement that a majority of the board of directors consist of independent directors;

 

  the requirement that if a listed company has a nominating and governance committee, it be composed of independent directors with a written charter addressing the committee’s purpose and responsibilities;

 

  the requirement that a listed company have a compensation committee that is composed entirely of independent directors with a written charter addressing the committee’s purpose and responsibilities; and

 

  the requirement for an annual performance evaluation of the nominating and governance committee, if applicable, and compensation committee.

 

Controlled companies must comply with Nasdaq’s other corporate governance standards. These include having and audit committee and the special meetings of independent or non-management directors.

 

Although we qualify as a “controlled company,” we do not currently to rely on these exemptions and intend to fully comply with all corporate governance requirements under the listing standards of Nasdaq. However, if we were to utilize some or all of these exemptions, we would not comply with certain of the corporate governance standards of Nasdaq, which could adversely affect the protections for other shareholders.

 

Committees of the Board

 

The Board has established an audit committee, a compensation committee and a nominating and corporate governance committee. The composition and responsibilities of each of the committees of the Board are described below. Members serve on these committees until their resignation or until otherwise determined by the Board. We may establish other committees as we deem necessary or appropriate from time to time.

 

Audit Committee

 

The audit committee of the Board currently consists of Harry You (Chair), Danielle Lambert, and Jill Turner. The Board has determined that all of the members of the audit committee qualify as “independent” under Nasdaq listing standards and Rule 10A-3(b)(1) of the Exchange Act, and that Harry You qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert” within the meaning of SEC regulations. Each member of the audit committee is able to read and understand fundamental financial statements in accordance with applicable requirements. In arriving at these determinations, the Board examined each audit committee member’s scope of experience and the nature of their employment.

 

122

 

 

The primary purpose of the audit committee is to discharge the responsibilities of the Board with respect to corporate accounting and financial reporting processes, systems of internal control and financial statement audits, and to oversee our independent registered public accounting firm. Specific responsibilities of the audit committee include:

 

helping the Board oversee corporate accounting and financial reporting processes;

 

  managing the selection, engagement, qualifications, independence and performance of a qualified firm to serve as the independent registered public accounting firm to audit our consolidated financial statements;

 

  discussing the scope and results of the audit with the independent registered public accounting firm, and reviewing, with management and the independent accountants, our interim and year-end operating results;

 

  developing procedures for employees to submit concerns anonymously about questionable accounting or audit matters;

  

  reviewing related person transactions; obtaining and reviewing a report by the independent registered public accounting firm at least annually that describes our internal quality control procedures, any material issues with such procedures, and any steps taken to deal with such issues when required by applicable law; and

 

  approving or, as permitted, pre-approving, audit and permissible non-audit services to be performed by the independent registered public accounting firm.

 

Compensation Committee

 

The compensation committee of the Board currently consists of Jill Turner (Chair) and Danielle Lambert. The Board has determined that all members of the compensation committee qualify as “independent” under the Nasdaq listing standards and as “non-employee directors” as defined in Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act.

 

The primary purpose of the compensation committee is to discharge the responsibilities of the Board in overseeing the compensation policies, plans and programs and to review and determine the compensation to be paid to executive officers, directors and other senior management, as appropriate. Specific responsibilities of the compensation committee include:

 

reviewing and approving the compensation of the chief executive officer, other executive officers and senior management;

 

  reviewing and recommending to the Board the compensation of directors;

 

  administering the equity incentive plans and other benefit programs;

 

  reviewing, adopting, amending and terminating incentive compensation and equity plans, severance agreements, profit sharing plans, bonus plans, change-of-control protections and any other compensatory arrangements for the executive officers and other senior management; and

 

  reviewing and establishing general policies relating to compensation and benefits of the employees, including the overall compensation philosophy.

 

123

 

 

Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee

 

The nominating and corporate governance committee currently consists of Danielle Lambert (Chair) and Harry You. The Board has determined that all members of the nominating and corporate governance committee qualify as independent under the Nasdaq listing standards.

 

Specific responsibilities of the nominating and corporate governance committee include:

 

identifying and evaluating candidates, including the nomination of incumbent directors for re-election and nominees recommended by shareholders, to serve on the Board;

 

  considering and making recommendations to the Board regarding the composition and chairmanship of the committees of the Board;

 

  developing and making recommendations to the Board regarding corporate governance guidelines and matters, including in relation to corporate social responsibility; and

 

  overseeing periodic evaluations of the performance of the Board, including its individual directors and committees.

  

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

 

None of the members of our compensation committee has ever been an executive officer or employee of the Company. None of our executive officers currently serves, or has served during the last completed fiscal year, on the compensation committee or board of directors of any other entity that has one or more executive officers who serve as a member of the Board or compensation committee.

 

Code of Ethics

 

We have adopted a code of ethics that applies to all of our executive officers, directors and employees, including our principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller or persons performing similar functions. The code of ethics is available on our website. In addition, we post all disclosures that are required by law or the listing standards of Nasdaq concerning any amendments to, or waivers from, any provision of the code on our website. The reference to our website address does not constitute incorporation by reference of the information contained at or available through our website, and you should not consider it to be a part of this prospectus.

 

Limitation on Liability and Indemnification of Directors and Officers

 

Our A&R Constitution contains provisions requiring us to indemnify our directors, officers, and executives against all costs, charges, losses, expenses, and liabilities incurred by them the execution of their duties or in relation thereto, and to advance expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred in defending any action, suit or proceeding for which indemnification would be allowed, all to the extent permissible under Singapore law and the A&R Constitution. In addition, we entered into an indemnification agreement with each of our directors and executive officers that provides for indemnification of that director and/or executive officer against certain claims that arise by reason of their status or service as a director or executive officer. We carry directors and officers liability insurance to cover our indemnification obligations to our directors and executive officers as well as to cover directly certain claims made against our directors and executive officers.

 

124

 

 

Duties of Directors

 

Under Singapore law, members of the board of directors of a Singapore company owe certain fiduciary duties towards the company, including a duty to act in good faith in the interests of the company, a duty to act honestly and to use reasonable diligence in the discharge of the duties of their office. Directors generally owe fiduciary duties to the company, and not to the company’s individual shareholders. The company’s shareholders may not have a direct cause of action against its directors. The company has a right to seek damages if a duty owed by directors is breached.

 

Subject to applicable law and our constitution, the directors may at their discretion exercise all powers of the company to borrow or otherwise raise money, to mortgage, charge or hypothecate all or any of its property or business including any uncalled or called but unpaid capital and to issue debentures and other securities, whether outright or as collateral security for any debt, liability or obligation of the company or of any third party.

 

Subject to the Singapore Companies Act, every director who is, in any way, whether directly or indirectly, interested in a transaction or proposed transaction with the company must as soon as is practicable after the relevant facts have come to his or her knowledge declare the nature of his or her interest at a meeting of the directors of the company, or send a written notice to the company containing details on the nature, character and extent of his or her interest in the transaction or proposed transaction with the company. Under the company’s constitution, (i) every director shall observe such provisions of the Singapore Companies Act relating to the disclosure of the interests in transactions or proposed transactions with the company or of any office or property held by him which might create duties or interests in conflict with his duties or interests as a director; (ii) subject to such disclosure, a director shall be entitled to vote in respect of any transaction or arrangement in which he is interested; and (iii) such director shall be taken into account in ascertaining whether a quorum of a meeting is present.

 

Terms of Directors and Officers

 

Pursuant to the A&R Constitution, our directors may be appointed and removed by an ordinary resolution of shareholders. The directors shall have power at any time to appoint any person who is willing to act as a director, to fill any vacancies on the Board arising other than upon the removal of a director by ordinary resolution. Any such appointment shall be as an interim director to fill such vacancy until the next general meeting of the Company (and such appointment shall terminate at the commencement of such general meeting of the Company). Our directors are not automatically subject to a term of office and shall hold office until such time as they are removed from office by an ordinary resolution. In addition, a director will cease to be a director if he (i) becomes prohibited by law from being a director; (ii) ceases to be a director by virtue of any provisions of The Companies Act of 1967; (iii) he shall resign (not being a director holding any executive office for a fixed term) by writing under his hand left at the Company’s office or if he shall in writing offer to resign and the directors shall resolve to accept such offer; (iv) becomes bankrupt or makes any arrangement or composition with his creditors generally; (v) becomes mentally disordered and incapable of managing himself or his affairs or if in Singapore or elsewhere an order shall be made by any court claiming jurisdiction in that behalf on the ground (however formulated) of mental disorder for his detention or for the appointment of a guardian or for the appointment of a receiver or other person (by whatever name called) to exercise powers with respect to his property or affairs; (vi) becomes disqualified from acting as a director by virtue of his disqualification or removal or the revocation of his appointment as a director, as the case may be, under any applicable laws; (vii) absents himself from the meetings of the directors during a continuous period of three (3) months without special leave of absence from the Board and they pass a resolution that he has by reason of such absence vacated office; (viii) is removed from office by the Company in general meeting pursuant to the Company’s A&R Constitution; and (ix) is disqualified from acting as a director in any jurisdiction for reasons other than on technical grounds (in which case he must immediately resign from the Board). Our officers are appointed by and serve at the discretion of the Board and may be removed by the Board.

BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP OF SECURITIES

 

The following table and accompanying footnotes set forth information with respect to the beneficial ownership of the Company as of the date of this prospectus by: 

 

each beneficial owner of more than 5% of the outstanding Company Ordinary Shares;

 

  each executive officer or a director of the Company and

 

  all of the Company’s executive officers and directors as a group.

 

Beneficial ownership is determined according to the rules of the SEC, which generally provide that a person has beneficial ownership of a security if they possess sole or shared voting or investment power over that security, including options and warrants that are currently exercisable or exercisable within 60 days. Except as described in the footnotes below and subject to applicable community property laws and similar laws, we believe that each person listed below has sole voting and investment power with respect to such shares.

 

The calculations in the table below are based on 31,833,549 Company Class A Shares and 19,744,585 Company Class B Shares issued and outstanding as of the date of this prospectus, and a total outstanding voting power of Company Shares of 91,067,304. Holders of record of Company Class A Shares are entitled to one (1) vote per share on all matters on which the Company Class A Shares are entitled to vote and holders of Company Class B Shares are entitled to three (3) votes per share on all matters on which the Company Class B Shares are entitled to vote.

SELLING SECURITYHOLDERS

 

This prospectus relates to, among other things, the registration and resale by the Selling Securityholders of (1) 2,884,660 Company Private Warrants and (2) 52,966,280 Company Class A Shares, including:

 

i.19,957,530 Company Class A Shares held by certain Selling Securityholders;

 

ii.1,163,484 Sponsor Shares;

 

iii.9,196,021 Company Class A issued to PIPE Investors pursuant to various subscription agreements entered into on December 4, 2025 and March 6, 2026;

 

iv.2,884,660 Company Class A Shares underlying the Company Private Warrants;

 

v.19,744,585 Company Class A Shares issuable upon the conversion of the Company Class B of the Company currently held by Dr. Joseph Fitzsimons; and

 

vi.20,000 Company Class A Shares held by Revere.

 

When we refer to the “Selling Securityholders” in this prospectus, we mean the persons listed in the table below, and the pledgees, donees, transferees, assignees or other successors in interest (that receive any of the securities as a gift, distribution, or other non-sale related transfer) of the persons named in the table below.

 

The table below sets forth, as of the date of this prospectus, the name of the Selling Securityholders for which we are registering securities for resale to the public and the aggregate principal amount that the Selling Securityholders may offer pursuant to this prospectus. The individuals and entities listed below have beneficial ownership over their respective securities. The SEC has defined “beneficial ownership” of a security to mean the possession, directly or indirectly, of voting power and/or investment power over such security. A shareholder is also deemed to be, as of any date, the beneficial owner of all securities that such shareholder has the right to acquire within 60 days after that date through (1) the exercise of any option, warrant or right, (2) the conversion of a security, (3) the power to revoke a trust, discretionary account or similar arrangement, or (4) the automatic termination of a trust, discretionary account or similar arrangement. In computing the number of shares beneficially owned by a person and the percentage ownership of that person, ordinary shares subject to options or other rights (as set forth above) held by that person that are currently exercisable, or will become exercisable within 60 days thereafter, are deemed outstanding, while such shares are not deemed outstanding for purposes of computing percentage ownership of any other person.

 

The securities held by certain of the Selling Securityholders are subject to transfer restrictions, as described in the section entitled “Corporate History and Structure — Additional Agreements in connection with the Business Combination.”

 

We cannot advise you as to whether the Selling Securityholders will in fact sell any or all of such securities. In addition, the Selling Securityholders may sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of, at any time and from time to time, the ordinary shares in transactions exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act after the date of this prospectus, subject to applicable law.

 

Selling Securityholder information for each additional Selling Securityholder, if any, will be set forth by prospectus supplement to the extent required prior to the time of any offer or sale of such Selling Securityholder’s securities pursuant to this prospectus. Any prospectus supplement may add, update, substitute, or change the information contained in this prospectus, including the identity of each Selling Securityholder and the number of Company Shares registered on its behalf. A Selling Securityholder may sell all, some or none of such securities in this offering. See the section titled “Plan of Distribution.”

DESCRIPTION OF OUR SECURITIES

 

A summary of the material provisions governing our securities is described below. This summary is not complete and should be read together with the A&R Constitution.

 

Ordinary Shares

 

The Company Shares have no par value as there is no concept of authorized share capital under Singapore law. All shares presently issued are fully paid. Although Singapore law does not recognize the concept of “non-assessability” with respect to newly issued shares, the Company notes that any subscriber of Company Shares who has fully paid up all amounts due with respect to such Company Shares will not be subject under Singapore law to any personal liability to contribute to Company’s assets or liabilities in such subscriber’s capacity solely as a holder of such Company Shares, except in very limited and exceptional circumstances where Singapore courts may consider it fit to “lift the corporate veil.” The Company believes this interpretation is substantively consistent with the concept of “non-assessability” under most, if not all, U.S. state corporations laws. The Company cannot, except in the circumstances permitted by the Singapore Companies Act, grant any financial assistance for the acquisition or proposed acquisition of the Company’s own Company Shares.

  

 

Voting Rights

 

Each Company Class A Share is entitled to one vote per share and each Company Class B Share is entitled to three votes per share. Voting at any meeting of shareholders is by poll. On a poll, each holder of Company Class A Shares who is present in person or by proxy or by attorney or in the case of a corporation, by a representative, has one vote for each Company Class A Share which he holds or represents, while each holder of Company Class B Shares who is present in person or by proxy or by attorney or in the case of a corporation, by a representative, has three votes for each Company Class B Share which he holds or represents. Proxies need not be shareholders. There are no limitations imposed by the A&R Constitution on the rights of non-resident or foreign shareholders to hold or exercise voting rights on Company’s shares. In addition, there are no provisions in the A&R Constitution governing the ownership threshold above which shareholder ownership must be disclosed.

 

Only those shareholders who are registered in Company’s register of members will be entitled to vote at any meeting of shareholders in person or by proxy or by attorney or, in the case of a corporation, by a representative. Therefore, since the Company Shares are held through the Depositary Trust Company (“DTC”) or its nominee, DTC or its nominee will grant an omnibus proxy to DTC participants holding Company Shares in book-entry form through a broker, bank, nominee, or other institution that is a direct or indirect participant of DTC. Such shareholders will have the right to instruct their broker, bank, nominee or other institution holding these ordinary shares on how to vote such ordinary shares by completing the voting instruction form provided by the applicable broker, bank, nominee, or other institution. Company’s vote will be voted by the chairman of the meeting according to the results of the votes of the DTC participants (which results will reflect the instructions received from shareholders that own Company Shares electronically in book-entry form through DTC).

 

Dividends

 

Company may, by ordinary resolution, declare dividends at a general meeting of Company’s shareholders, but no dividend shall be payable except out of Company’s profits, and the amount of any such dividend shall not exceed the amount recommended by the board of directors of the Company (the “Board”). Subject to the Company A&R Constitution and in accordance with the Singapore Companies Act, the Board may, without the approval of Company’s shareholders, declare and pay interim dividends, but any final dividends the Board declares must be approved by an ordinary resolution at a general meeting of Company’s shareholders. Company currently has not adopted a dividend policy with respect to future dividends and Company does not have any present plan to pay any cash dividends on Company Shares in the foreseeable future after consummation of the Business Combination.

 

133

 

 

Capitalization and Other Rights

 

The Board may, with the approval of Company’s shareholders at a general meeting, capitalize any reserves or profits and distribute them as shares, credited as paid-up, to Company’s shareholders in proportion to their shareholdings in accordance with the Company’s A&R Constitution.

 

Variation of Rights

 

Subject to the Singapore Companies Act and every other Singapore statute for the time being in force affecting the Company, under the Company A&R Constitution, whenever the Company’s share capital is divided into different classes of shares, the rights attached to any class may be varied or abrogated either with the consent in writing of the holders of three-quarters of the voting rights of the issued shares of the class or with the sanction of a special resolution passed at a separate general meeting of the holders of the shares of the class (but not otherwise) and may be so varied or abrogated either whilst the Company is a going concern or during or in contemplation of a winding-up. To every such separate general meeting, (i) the necessary quorum shall be two persons (unless all the shares of the class are held by one person whereupon no quorum is applicable) at least holding or representing by proxy or attorney at least one-third of the voting rights of the issued shares of the class and that any holder of shares of the class present in person or by proxy or by attorney may demand a poll, and on a poll shall, in the case of any holder of ordinary shares, have one vote for every share of the class held by him, provided always that where the necessary majority for such a special resolution is not obtained at such general meeting, consent in writing if obtained from the holders of three-fourths of the issued shares of the class concerned within two months of such general meeting shall be as valid and effectual as a special resolution carried at such general meeting; and (ii) where all the issued shares of the class are held by one person, the necessary quorum shall be one person and such holder of shares of the class present in person or by proxy or by attorney may demand a poll.

 

Issuances of New Shares

 

Under the Singapore Companies Act, new shares may be issued only with the prior approval of the Company’s shareholders in a general meeting. General approval may be sought from the Company’s shareholders in a general meeting for the issuance of shares. Such approval, if granted, will lapse at the earlier of the conclusion of the next annual general meeting or the expiration of the period within which the next annual general meeting is required by law to be held (i.e., within six months after the end of each fiscal year). However, any approval may be revoked or varied by the Company in a general meeting.

 

For the issuance of new shares for the proposed sale to the public, the Company’s shareholders will provide such general authority to issue new ordinary shares as required by the Singapore Companies Act.

 

Subject to this and the provisions of the Singapore Companies Act and the Company A&R Constitution, the Company’s board of directors may allot, issue or grant options over or otherwise dispose of new ordinary shares to such persons on such terms and conditions and with the rights and restrictions as they may think fit to impose. Such rights are subject to any condition attached to such issue and the regulations of any stock exchange on which Company Shares are listed, as well as U.S. federal and blue sky securities laws applicable to such issue.

 

Conversion of Company Class B Shares

 

Under the Company A&R Constitution, each Company Class B Share shall be convertible into one Company Class A Share (“Conversion Ratio”) at any time at the option of the holder of that Company Class B Share.

 

Under the Company A&R Constitution, subject to the Singapore Companies Act, on the date of any sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance, pledge, hypothecation or other transfer or disposition of Company Class B Shares or any legal or beneficial interest in such shares (“Transfer”), whether or not for value, by the initial registered holder thereof, unless provided otherwise in the Company A&R Constitution, the Company Class B Shares held by the holder as registered on the register of members of the Company shall be automatically converted to Company Class A Shares at the Conversion Ratio, effective immediately upon such Transfer (“Automatic Conversion Date”), and the person entitled to receive the Company Class A Shares upon such conversion shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder of such Company Class A Shares on such date. Notwithstanding anything in the Company A&R Constitution, any holder of Company Class B Shares may charge his, her or its Company Class B Shares to a chargee pursuant to a bona fide charge of Company Class B Shares as collateral security for indebtedness due to the chargee so long as the Company Class B Shares are not transferred to or registered in the name of the chargee. In the event of any charge of the Company Class B Shares meeting these requirements, the charged shares will not be converted automatically into Company Class A Shares. If the charged Company Class B Shares become subject to any foreclosure, realisation or other similar action by the chargee, they will be converted automatically into Company Class A Shares upon the occurrence of that action.

 

134

 

 

Subject to compliance with the Singapore Companies Act, each Company Class B Share shall be automatically converted to Company Class A Shares at the Conversion Ratio without further action by the Company or the holder thereof upon the earliest to occur of the following:

 

(a)5:00 p.m., Singapore time, on the first day following the date on which Dr. Joseph Fitzsimons (the “Horizon Founder”) is no longer serving as a director or officer of Company;

 

(b)the death or incapacity of the Horizon Founder; and

 

(c)such time as the number of outstanding Company Class B Shares is less than 50% the total number of outstanding Company Class B Shares as of immediately following the completion of the amalgamation between the Horizon and Merger Sub 1, as equitably adjusted for share splits, reverse share splits, share dividends, reorganizations, consolidations, exchanges of shares or other like changes or transactions with respect to the Company Shares.

 

The Conversion Ratio may be adjusted by the directors of Company as necessary from time to time in order to account for any subdivision (by share split, subdivision, exchange, capitalization, rights issue, reclassification, recapitalization or otherwise) or combination (by reverse share split, share consolidation, exchange, reclassification, recapitalization or otherwise) or similar reclassification or recapitalization of the Company Class A Shares in issue into a greater or lesser number of shares without there being a proportionate and corresponding subdivision, combination or similar reclassification or recapitalization of the Company Class B Shares in issue.

 

Preference Shares

 

Under the Singapore Companies Act, different classes of shares in a public company may be issued only if (a) the issue of the class or classes of shares is provided for in the constitution of the public company and (b) the constitution of the public company sets out in respect of each class of shares the rights attached to that class of shares. The Company A&R Constitution provides that it may issue shares of a different class with preferred, deferred or other special, limited or conditional rights, or subject to such restrictions, whether as regards dividend, return of capital, voting or otherwise, or which do not confer voting rights as the Board may determine from time to time provided that it is approved by ordinary resolution, or if required by the statutes, special resolution at a general meeting of its shareholder.

 

The Company may, subject to the Singapore Companies Act and the prior approval in a general meeting of its shareholders, issue preference shares that are, at its option, subject to redemption provided that such preference shares may not be redeemed out of the capital of the Company unless:

 

all the directors have made a solvency statement in relation to such redemption; and

 

Company has lodged a copy of the solvency statement with the Accounting and Corporate Regulatory Authority of Singapore.

 

Further, the shares must be fully paid-up before they are redeemed.

 

The issuance of preference shares could have the effect of decreasing the trading price of Company Shares, restricting dividends on Company Shares, diluting the voting power of Company Shares, impairing the liquidation rights of Company Shares, or delaying or preventing a change in control of the Company.

Company Warrants

 

Company Public Warrants

 

Each whole warrant entitles the registered holder to purchase Company Class A Share at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment as discussed below, at any time commencing 30 days after the completion the Business Combination, provided in each case that the Company has an effective registration statement under the Securities Act covering the Company Class A Shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants and a current prospectus relating to them is available (or the Company permit holders to exercise their warrants on a cashless basis under the circumstances specified in the warrant agreement) and such shares are registered, qualified or exempt from registration under the securities, or blue sky, laws of the state of residence of the holder. Pursuant to the warrant agreement, a warrant holder may exercise its warrants only for a whole number of Company Class A Shares. This means that, once the warrants become exercisable, only a whole warrant may be exercised at any given time by a warrant holder. The warrants will expire five years after the completion of the Business Combination, at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.

 

The Company will not be obligated to deliver any Company Class A Shares pursuant to the exercise of a warrant and will have no obligation to settle such warrant exercise unless a registration statement under the Securities Act with respect to the Company Class A Shares underlying the warrants is then effective and a prospectus relating thereto is current, subject to the Company satisfying its obligations with respect to registration. No warrant will be exercisable and the Company will not be obligated to issue Company Class A Shares upon exercise of a warrant unless the Company Class A Shares issuable upon such warrant exercise have been registered, qualified or deemed to be exempt under the securities laws of the state of residence of the registered holder of the warrants. In the event that the conditions in the two immediately preceding sentences are not satisfied with respect to a warrant, the holder of such warrant will not be entitled to exercise such warrant and such warrant may have no value and expire worthless. In no event will the Company be required to net cash settle any warrant.

 

If a registration statement covering the Company Class A Shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants is not effective by the sixtieth business day after the closing of the Business Combination, warrant holders may, until such time as there is an effective registration statement and during any period when the Company has failed to maintain an effective registration statement, exercise warrants on a “cashless basis” in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act or another exemption. Notwithstanding the above, if Company Class A Shares are at the time of any exercise of a warrant not listed on a national securities exchange such that they satisfy the definition of a “covered security” under Section 18(b)(1) of the Securities Act, the Company may, at the Company’s option, require holders of Company Public Warrants who exercise their warrants to do so on a “cashless basis” in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act and, in the event the Company so elect, the Company will not be required to file or maintain in effect a registration statement, and in the event the Company does not so elect, the Company will use its best efforts to register or qualify the shares under applicable blue sky laws to the extent an exemption is not available. In such event, each holder would pay the exercise price by surrendering the warrants for that number of Company Class A Shares equal to the lesser of (A) the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the product of the number of Company Class A Shares underlying the warrants, multiplied by the excess of the “fair market value” (defined below) less the exercise price of the warrants by (y) the fair market value and (B) 0.361. The “fair market value” as used in this paragraph shall mean the volume weighted average price of the Company Class A Shares for the 10 trading days ending on the trading day prior to the date on which the notice of exercise is received by the warrant agent.

 

Redemption of warrants when the price per Company Class A Share equals or exceeds $18.00.    Once the warrants become exercisable, the Company may redeem the outstanding warrants:

 

in whole and not in part;

 

at a price of $0.01 per warrant;

 

upon a minimum of 30 days; prior written notice of redemption to each warrant holder; and

 

if, and only if, the last reported sales price of the Company Class A Shares or exceeds $18.00 per share (as adjusted for adjustments to the number of shares issuable upon exercise or the exercise price of a warrant) for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period ending three trading days before the Company sends the notice of redemption to the warrant holders.

 

136

 

 

The Company will not redeem the warrants as described above unless a registration statement under the Securities Act covering the issuance of the Company Class A Shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants is then effective and a current prospectus relating to those Company Class A Shares is available throughout the 30-day redemption period. If and when the warrants become redeemable by the Company, the Company may exercise the Company’s redemption right even if they are unable to register or qualify the underlying securities for sale under all applicable state securities laws.

 

The Company has established the last of the redemption criterion discussed above to prevent a redemption call unless there is at the time of the call a significant premium to the warrant exercise price. If the foregoing conditions are satisfied and the Company issues a notice of redemption of the warrants, each warrant holder will be entitled to exercise his, her or its warrant prior to the scheduled redemption date. However, the price of the Company Class A Shares may fall below the $18.00 redemption trigger price (as adjusted for adjustments to the number of shares issuable upon exercise or the exercise price of a warrant) as well as the $11.50 warrant exercise price after the redemption notice is issued.

 

Redemption of warrants when the price per Company Class A Share equals or exceeds $10.00. Once the warrants become exercisable, the Company may redeem the outstanding warrants:

 

in whole and not in part;

 

at a price of $0.10 per warrant, provided that holders will be able to exercise their warrants on a cashless basis prior to redemption and receive that number of shares determined by reference to the table below, based on the redemption date and the “fair market value” (as defined below) of Company Class A Shares except as otherwise described below;

 

upon a minimum of 30 days; prior written notice of redemption to each warrant holder; and

 

if, and only if, the last reported sales price of the Company Class A Shares or exceeds $10.00 per share (as adjusted for adjustments to the number of shares issuable upon exercise or the exercise price of a warrant”) for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period ending three trading days before the Company sends the notice of redemption to the warrant holders.

 

Beginning on the date the notice of redemption is given until the warrants are redeemed or exercised, holders may elect to exercise their warrants on a cashless basis. The numbers in the table below represent the number of Company Class A Shares that a warrant holder will receive upon such cashless exercise in connection with a redemption by the Company pursuant to this redemption feature, based on the “fair market value” of Company Class A Shares on the corresponding redemption date (assuming holders elect to exercise their warrants and such warrants are not redeemed for $0.10 per warrant), determined for these purposes based on volume weighted average price of Company Class A Shares during the 10 trading days immediately following the date on which the notice of redemption is sent to the holders of warrants, and the number of months that the corresponding redemption date precedes the expiration date of the warrants, each as set forth in the table below. The Company will provide the warrant holders with the final fair market value no later than one business day after the 10-trading day period described above ends.

 

The share prices set forth in the column headings of the table below will be adjusted as of any date on which the number of shares issuable upon exercise of a warrant or the exercise price of a warrant is adjusted as set forth under the heading “— Anti-dilution Adjustments” below. If the number of shares issuable upon exercise of a warrant is adjusted, the adjusted share prices in the column headings will equal the share prices immediately prior to such adjustment, multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of shares deliverable upon exercise of a warrant immediately prior to such adjustment and the denominator of which is the number of shares deliverable upon exercise of a warrant as so adjusted. The number of shares in the table below shall be adjusted in the same manner and at the same time as the number of shares issuable upon exercise of a warrant. If the exercise price of a warrant is adjusted, (a) in the case of an adjustment pursuant to the fifth paragraph under the heading “— Anti-dilution Adjustments” below, the adjusted share prices in the column headings will equal the unadjusted share price multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the higher of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price as set forth under the heading “— Anti-dilution Adjustments” and the denominator of which is $10.00 and (b) in the case of an adjustment pursuant to the second paragraph under the heading “— Anti-dilution Adjustments” below, the adjusted share prices in the column headings will equal the unadjusted share price less the decrease in the exercise price of a warrant pursuant to such exercise price adjustment.

The exact fair market value and redemption date may not be set forth in the table above, in which case, if the fair market value is between two values in the table or the redemption date is between two redemption dates in the table, the number of Company Class A Shares to be issued for each warrant exercised will be determined by a straight-line interpolation between the number of shares set forth for the higher and lower fair market values and the earlier and later redemption dates, as applicable, based on a 365 or 366-day year, as applicable. For example, if the volume weighted average price of Company Class A Shares during the 10 trading days immediately following the date on which the notice of redemption is sent to the holders of the warrants is $11.00 per share, and at such time there are 57 months until the expiration of the warrants, holders may choose to, in connection with this redemption feature, exercise their warrants for 0.277 Company Class A Shares for each whole warrant. For an example where the exact fair market value and redemption date are not as set forth in the table above, if the volume weighted average price of Company Class A Shares during the 10 trading days immediately following the date on which the notice of redemption is sent to the holders of the warrants is $13.50 per share, and at such time there are 38 months until the expiration of the warrants, holders may choose to, in connection with this redemption feature, exercise their warrants for 0.298 Company Class A Shares for each whole warrant. In no event will the warrants be exercisable on a cashless basis in connection with this redemption feature for more than 0.361 Company Class A Shares per warrant (subject to adjustment). Finally, as reflected in the table above, if the warrants are out of the money and about to expire, they cannot be exercised on a cashless basis in connection with a redemption by us pursuant to this redemption feature, since they will not be exercisable for any Company Class A Shares.

 

This redemption feature is structured to allow for warrants to be redeemed when the Company Class A Shares are trading at or above $10.00 per share, which may be at a time when the trading price of Company Class A Shares is below the exercise price of the warrants. The Company have established this redemption feature to provide itself with the flexibility to redeem the warrants without the warrants having to reach the $18.00 per share threshold set forth above under “— Redemption of warrants when the price per Company Class A Share equals or exceeds $18.00.” Holders choosing to exercise their warrants in connection with a redemption pursuant to this feature will, in effect, receive a number of shares for their warrants based on an option pricing model with a fixed volatility input as of September 29, 2022. This redemption right provides us with an additional mechanism by which to redeem all of the outstanding warrants, and therefore have certainty as to the Company’s capital structure as the warrants would no longer be outstanding and would have been exercised or redeemed and the Company will be required to pay the redemption price to warrant holders if the Company chooses to exercise this redemption right and it will allow us to quickly proceed with a redemption of the warrants if the Company determines it is in the Company’s best interest to do so. As such, the Company would redeem the warrants in this manner when the Company believes it is in the Company’s best interest to update the Company’s capital structure to remove the warrants and pay the redemption price to the warrant holders.

 

138

 

 

As stated above, the Company can redeem the warrants when the Company Class A Shares are trading at a price starting at $10.00, which is below the exercise price of $11.50, because it will provide certainty with respect to the Company’s capital structure and cash position while providing warrant holders with the opportunity to exercise their warrants on a cashless basis for the applicable number of shares. If the Company chooses to redeem the warrants when the Company Class A Shares are trading at a price below the exercise price of the warrants, this could result in the warrant holders receiving fewer Company Class A Shares than they would have received if they had chosen to wait to exercise their warrants for Company Class A Shares if and when such Company Class A Shares were trading at a price higher than the exercise price of $11.50.

 

No fractional Company Class A Shares will be issued upon exercise. If, upon exercise, a holder would be entitled to receive a fractional interest in a share, the Company will round down to the nearest whole number of the number of Company Class A Shares to be issued to the holder. If, at the time of redemption, the warrants are exercisable for a security other than the Company Class A Shares pursuant to the warrant agreement, the warrants may be exercised for such security. At such time as the warrants become exercisable for a security other than the Company Class A Shares, Company (or surviving company) will use its commercially reasonable efforts to register under the Securities Act the security issuable upon exercise of the warrants.

 

The redemption rights set forth above under “— Redemption of warrants when the price per Company Class A Share equals or exceeds $18.00” and “— Redemption of warrants when the price per Company Class A Share equals or exceeds $10.00” do not apply to the Company Private Warrants if, at the time of the redemption, such warrants are held by the Sponsor or certain permitted transferees. If the Company Private Warrants are transferred (other than to a permitted transferee), then the Company may redeem the Company Private Warrants on the same terms as the Company Public Warrants.

 

Maximum Percentage

 

A holder of a warrant may notify us in writing in the event it elects to be subject to a requirement that such holder will not have the right to exercise such warrant, to the extent that after giving effect to such exercise, such person (together with such person’s affiliates), to the warrant agent’s actual knowledge, would beneficially own in excess of 4.9% or 9.8% (as specified by the holder) of the Company Class A Shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to such exercise.

 

Anti-Dilution Adjustments

 

If the number of outstanding Company Class A Shares is increased by a capitalization or share dividend payable in Company Class A Shares, or by a split-up of ordinary shares or other similar event, then, on the effective date of such capitalization or share dividend, split-up or similar event, the number of Company Class A Shares issuable on exercise of each warrant will be increased in proportion to such increase in the outstanding ordinary shares. A rights offering made to all or substantially all holders of ordinary shares entitling holders to purchase Company Class A Shares at a price less than the “historical fair market value” (as defined below) will be deemed a share dividend of a number of Company Class A Shares equal to the product of (i) the number of Company Class A Shares actually sold in such rights offering (or issuable under any other equity securities sold in such rights offering that are convertible into or exercisable for Company Class A Shares) and (ii) one minus the quotient of (x) the price per Company Class A Share paid in such rights offering and (y) the historical fair market value. For these purposes, (i) if the rights offering is for securities convertible into or exercisable for Company Class A Shares, in determining the price payable for Company Class A Shares, there will be taken into account any consideration received for such rights, as well as any additional amount payable upon exercise or conversion and (ii) “historical fair market value” means the volume weighted average price of Company Class A Shares as reported during the 10 trading day period ending on the trading day prior to the first date on which the Company Class A Shares trade on the applicable exchange or in the applicable market, regular way, without the right to receive such rights.

In addition, if the Company, at any time while the warrants are outstanding and unexpired, pay a dividend or make a distribution in cash, securities or other assets to all or substantially all of the holders of the Company Class A Shares on account of such Company Class A Shares (or other securities into which the warrants are convertible), other than (a) as described above, or (b) any cash dividends or cash distributions which, when combined on a per share basis with all other cash dividends and cash distributions paid on the Company Class A Shares during the 365-day period ending on the date of declaration of such dividend or distribution does not exceed $0.50 (as adjusted to appropriately reflect any other adjustments and excluding cash dividends or cash distributions that resulted in an adjustment to the exercise price or to the number of Company Class A Shares issuable on exercise of each warrant) but only with respect to the amount of the aggregate cash dividends or cash distributions equal to or less than $0.50 per share, then the warrant exercise price will be decreased, effective immediately after the effective date of such event, by the amount of cash and/or the fair market value of any securities or other assets paid on each Company Class A Share in respect of such event.

 

If the number of outstanding Company Class A Shares is decreased by a consolidation, combination, reverse share split or reclassification of Company Class A Shares or other similar event, then, on the effective date of such consolidation, combination, reverse share split, reclassification or similar event, the number of Company Class A Shares issuable on exercise of each warrant will be decreased in proportion to such decrease in outstanding Company Class A Shares.

 

Whenever the number of Company Class A Shares purchasable upon the exercise of the warrants is adjusted, as described above, the warrant exercise price will be adjusted by multiplying the warrant exercise price immediately prior to such adjustment by a fraction (x) the numerator of which will be the number of Company Class A Shares purchasable upon the exercise of the warrants immediately prior to such adjustment and (y) the denominator of which will be the number of Company Class A Shares so purchasable immediately thereafter.

 

In case of any reclassification or reorganization of the outstanding Company Class A Shares (other than those described above or that solely affects the par value of such Company Class A Shares), or in the case of any merger or consolidation of us with or into another corporation (other than a consolidation or merger in which the Company are the continuing corporation and that does not result in any reclassification or reorganization of the Company’s outstanding Company Class A Shares), or in the case of any sale or conveyance to another corporation or entity of the assets or other property of us as an entirety or substantially as an entirety in connection with which the Company are dissolved, the holders of the warrants will thereafter have the right to purchase and receive, upon the basis and upon the terms and conditions specified in the warrants and in lieu of the Company Class A Shares immediately theretofore purchasable and receivable upon the exercise of the rights represented thereby, the kind and amount of Company Class A Shares or other securities or property (including cash) receivable upon such reclassification, reorganization, merger or consolidation, or upon a dissolution following any such sale or transfer, that the holder of the warrants would have received if such holder had exercised their warrants immediately prior to such event. If less than 70% of the consideration receivable by the holders of Company Class A Shares in such a transaction is payable in the form of Company Class A Shares in the successor entity that is listed for trading on a national securities exchange or is quoted in an established over-the-counter market, or is to be so listed for trading or quoted immediately following such event, and if the registered holder of the warrant properly exercises the warrant within thirty days following public disclosure of such transaction, the warrant exercise price will be reduced as specified in the warrant agreement based on the Black-Scholes Warrant Value (as defined in the warrant agreement) of the warrant. The purpose of such exercise price reduction is to provide additional value to holders of the warrants when an extraordinary transaction occurs during the exercise period of the warrants pursuant to which the holders of the warrants otherwise do not receive the full potential value of the warrants.

 

The warrants were issued in registered form under a warrant agreement between Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as warrant agent, and us. The warrant agreement provides that the terms of the warrants may be amended without the consent of any holder to cure any ambiguity or correct any defective provision, and that all other modifications or amendments will require the vote or written consent of the holders of at least 50% of the then outstanding Company Public Warrants, and, solely with respect to any amendment to the terms of the Company Private Warrants, a majority of the then outstanding Company Private Warrants. You should review a copy of the warrant agreement, which has been filed as an exhibit to the Report of which this Exhibit is filed, for a complete description of the terms and conditions applicable to the warrants.

 

The warrants may be exercised upon surrender of the warrant certificate on or prior to the expiration date at the offices of the warrant agent, with the exercise form on the reverse side of the warrant certificate completed and executed as indicated, accompanied by full payment of the exercise price (or on a cashless basis, if applicable), by certified or official bank check payable to us, for the number of warrants being exercised. The warrant holders do not have the rights or privileges of holders of ordinary shares and any voting rights until they exercise their warrants and receive Company Class A Shares. After the issuance of Company Class A Shares upon exercise of the warrants, each holder will be entitled to one vote for each share held of record on all matters to be voted on by shareholders.

 

No fractional shares will be issued upon exercise of the warrants. If, upon exercise of the warrants, a holder would be entitled to receive a fractional interest in a share, the Company will, upon exercise, round down to the nearest whole number the number of Company Class A Shares to be issued to the warrant holder.

Company Private Warrants

 

Except as described below, the Company Private Warrants have terms and provisions that are identical to those of the Company Public Warrants. The Company Private Warrants (including the Company Class A Shares issuable upon exercise of the Company Private Warrants) are not transferable, assignable or salable until 30 days after the completion of the Business Combination (except pursuant to limited exceptions to the Company’s officers and directors and other persons or entities affiliated with the initial purchasers of the Company Private Warrants) and they will not be redeemable by us so long as they are held by the Sponsor or its permitted transferees (except as otherwise set forth herein). The Sponsor, or its permitted transferees, has the option to exercise the Company Private Warrants on a cashless basis. If the Company Private Warrants are held by holders other than the Company’s Sponsor or its permitted transferees, the Company Private Warrants will be redeemable by the Company in all redemption scenarios and exercisable by the holders on the same basis as the Company Public Warrants.

 

If holders of the Company Private Warrants elect to exercise them on a cashless basis, they would pay the exercise price by surrendering his, her or its warrants for that number of Company Class A Shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the product of the number of Company Class A Shares underlying the warrants, multiplied by the excess of the “Sponsor fair market value” (defined below) over the exercise price of the warrants by (y) the Sponsor fair market value. For these purposes, the “Sponsor fair market value” shall mean the average reported closing price of the Company Class A Shares for the 10 trading days ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which the notice of warrant exercise is sent to the warrant agent. The Company has policies in place that restrict insiders from selling the Company’s securities except during specific periods of time. Even during such periods of time when insiders will be permitted to sell the Company’s securities, an insider cannot trade in the Company’s securities if he or she is in possession of material non-public information. Accordingly, unlike public shareholders who could exercise their warrants and sell the Company Class A Shares received upon such exercise freely in the open market in order to recoup the cost of such exercise, the insiders could be significantly restricted from selling such securities.

 

Listing of Securities

 

The Company Class A Shares and Company Public Warrants are listed on Nasdaq under the symbol “HQ” and “HQWWW,” respectively.

 

Material Provisions of Company’s A&R Constitution

 

Corporate Name

 

The A&R Constitution provides that the name of the corporation is “Horizon Quantum Holdings Ltd.”

 

Authorized Shares

 

The Company’s share capital includes two classes of ordinary shares (Company Class A Shares and Company Class B Shares) of no par value as there is no concept of authorized share capital under Singapore Law.

 

Voting

 

Each Company Class A Share is entitled to one vote per share and each Company Class B is entitled to three votes per share. As provided in the Company A&R Constitution and the Singapore Companies Act, voting at any meeting of shareholders is by poll. Proxies need not be shareholders. There are no limitations imposed by the Company A&R Constitution on the rights of non-resident or foreign shareholders to hold or exercise voting rights on Company’s shares.

 

The Singapore Companies Act provides that a shareholder is entitled to attend any general meeting and speak on any resolution put before the general meeting, and that the shareholder may vote on any resolution before a general meeting if in accordance with the Singapore Companies Act, the share confers on the shareholder a right to vote on that resolution. Unless otherwise required by law or by the Company A&R Constitution, voting on resolutions put forth at general meetings is by ordinary resolution, requiring an affirmative vote by shareholders of Company who on that date represent a simple majority of votes of all the shareholders of Company present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the resolution.

 

An ordinary resolution suffices, for example, for the appointment of directors. A special resolution, which is passed by a an affirmative vote by shareholders of Company who on that date represent not less than three-fourths of votes of all the shareholders of Company present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the resolution, is necessary for certain matters under Singapore law, including voluntary winding up, amendments to Company’s constitution, a change of Company’s corporate name and a reduction in the share capital.

 

141

 

 

A shareholder entitled to attend and vote at a meeting of the company, or at a meeting of any class of shareholders of the company, shall be entitled to appoint another person or persons, whether a shareholder of the company or not, as his proxy to attend and vote instead of the shareholder at the meeting. A proxy appointed to attend and vote instead of the shareholder shall also have the same right as the shareholder to speak at the meeting, but unless the constitution of the company otherwise provides, (i) a proxy shall not be entitled to vote except on a poll, (ii) a shareholder shall not be entitled to appoint more than two proxies to attend and vote at the same meeting and (iii) where a shareholder appoints two proxies the appointment shall be invalid unless the shareholder specifies the proportions of his or her holdings to be represented by each proxy.

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a registered shareholder having a share capital who is a relevant intermediary (as defined under the Singapore Companies Act) may appoint more than two proxies in relation to a meeting to exercise all or any of his rights to attend and to speak and vote at the meeting, but each proxy must be appointed to exercise the rights attached to a different share or shares held by him (which number and class of shares shall be specified).

 

Under the Singapore Companies Act, public companies may issue non-voting shares and shares that confer special, limited or conditional voting rights, such that the holder of a share may vote on a resolution before a general meeting of the company if, in accordance with the provisions of Section 64 of the Singapore Companies Act, the share confers on the holder a right to vote on that resolution.

 

Issuances of Preferred Stock without Stockholder Consent

 

The Company A&R Constitution provides that, subject to the Singapore Companies Act, every other legislation for the time being in force concerning companies and affecting the company and its constitution, the directors may, subject to prior approval of the company in general meeting, allot and issue shares or grant options over or otherwise deal with or dispose of the same to such persons on such terms and conditions and for such consideration (if any) and at such time and subject or not to the payment of any part of the amount (if any) thereof in cash as the directors may think fit. Such approval, if granted, will lapse at the earlier of the conclusion of the next annual general meeting or the expiration of the period within which the next annual general meeting is required by law to be held (i.e., within six months after the end of each fiscal year). However, any approval may be revoked or varied by Company in a general meeting.

 

Any such shares may be issued with such preferred, deferred or other special, limited or conditional rights, or subject to such restrictions, whether as regards dividend, return of capital, voting or otherwise, or which do not confer voting rights as the directors may think fit. Preference shares may be issued which are or at the option of Company are liable to be redeemed, the terms and manner of redemption being determined by the directors.

 

Moreover under the Singapore Companies Act, the Company may issue preference shares or convert any issued shares into preference shares only if there are set out in the Company A&R Constitution the rights of the holders of those shares with respect to repayment of capital, participation in surplus assets and profits, cumulative or non-cumulative dividends, voting and priority of payment of capital and dividends in relation to other shares or other classes of preference shares.

 

Shareholder/Stockholder Written Consent in Lieu of a Meeting

 

Subject to the Singapore Companies Act and every other Singapore statute for the time being in force affecting the Company, under the Company A&R Constitution, whenever the Company’s share capital is divided into different classes of shares, the special rights attached to any class may be varied or abrogated either with the consent in writing of the holders of three quarters of the voting rights of the issued shares of the class or with the sanction of a special resolution passed at a separate general meeting of the holders of the shares of the class (but not otherwise) and may be so varied or abrogated either whilst the Company is a going concern or during or in contemplation of a winding up. To every such separate general meeting, (i) the necessary quorum shall be two persons (unless all the shares of the class are held by one person whereupon the necessary quorum shall be one person) at least holding or representing by proxy or attorney at least one-third of the voting rights of the issued shares of the class and that any holder of shares of the class present in person or by proxy or by attorney may demand a poll, but where the necessary majority for such a special resolution is not obtained at such general meeting, consent in writing if obtained from the holders of three-fourths of the issued shares of the class concerned within two months of such general meeting shall be as valid and effectual as a special resolution carried at such general meeting; and (ii) where all the issued shares of the class are held by one person, the necessary quorum shall be one person and such holder of shares of the class present in person or by proxy or by attorney may demand a poll. Save for the foregoing, the Company A&R Constitution does not provide for shareholders to approve resolutions by written means.

 

142

 

 

Classified Board

 

The Company A&R Constitution does not provide for a classified board.

 

Perpetual Existence

 

The Company has perpetual existence.

 

Takeovers by Interest Stockholders

 

Under the Singapore Take-over Code, if, in the course of an offer, or even before the date of the announcement of the offer, the board of the offeree company has reason to believe that a bona fide offer is imminent, the board must not, except pursuant to a contract entered into earlier, take any action, without the approval of shareholders at a general meeting, on the affairs of the offeree company that could effectively result in any bona fide offer being frustrated or the shareholders being denied an opportunity to decide on its merits.

 

Election and Re-Election of Directors

 

The Company may, by ordinary resolution, remove any director before the expiration of his or her period of office, notwithstanding anything in the Company A&R Constitution or in any agreement between the Company and such director. the Company may also, by an ordinary resolution, appoint another person in place of a director removed from office pursuant to the foregoing.

 

The Company A&R Constitution provides that its shareholders by ordinary resolution, or its board of directors shall have the power, at any time and from time to time, to appoint any person to be a director either to fill a casual vacancy or as an additional director, provided that the total number of directors shall not at any time be lower than the minimum number or exceed the maximum number (if any) fixed by the Company A&R Constitution.

SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE

 

We have 31,833,549 Company Class A Shares and 19,744,585 Company Class B Shares issued and outstanding as of the date of this prospectus. All of the Company Class A Shares issued to the shareholders of DMY in connection with the Business Combination are freely transferable by persons other than by the Sponsor and our affiliates without restriction or further registration under the Securities Act. Company Class A Shares held by certain shareholders are subject to lock-up restrictions described below. Sales of substantial amounts of the Company Class A Shares in the public market could adversely affect prevailing market price of our listed securities.

 

Lock-up Agreements

 

Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, Lock-Up Securityholders entered into the Lock-Up Agreement, pursuant to which the Lock-Up Shares are subject to lock-up during the period immediately following the Closing until the earlier of (i) the date that is 24 months after the Closing Date and (ii) the date on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, capital share exchange, reorganization or other similar transaction that results in all of the Company’s shareholders having the right to exchange their Company Shares for cash, securities, or other property and the Company Warrants and underlying Company Shares will be subject to the Company Warrants Lock-Up Period. Prior to the Closing, the Company, Horizon, and DMY agreed to waive the lock-up restrictions on approximately 9.0% of the Company Class A Shares held by each non-affiliate shareholders. An aggregate of approximately 39,627,691 million Lock-up Shares are subject to the Share Lock-Up Period, representing approximately 76.9% of the total issued and outstanding Company Shares. An aggregate of 2,884,660 Company Private Warrants, and the underlying 2,884,660 Company Class A Shares issuable upon the exercise of the Company Private Warrants, are subject to the Warrants Lock-Up Period, representing approximately 47.7% of the issued and outstanding Company Warrants. The form of Lock-Up Agreement is attached as Exhibit 10.1 to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part. 

 

TAXATION

 

Certain Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences 

 

The following discussion describes material U.S. federal income tax consequences to U.S. Holders (as defined below), of an investment in the ordinary shares. This summary applies only to U.S. Holders that hold ordinary shares as capital assets within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Code (as defined below) and have the U.S. dollar as their functional currency.

 

This discussion is based on the tax laws of the U.S. as in effect on the date of this prospectus, including the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, the “Code,” and U.S. Treasury regulations in effect or, in some cases, proposed, as of the date of this prospectus, as well as judicial and administrative interpretations thereof available on or before such date. All of the foregoing authorities are subject to change, and any such change could apply retroactively and could affect the U.S. federal income tax consequences described below. We have not sought and do not intend to seek any rulings from the IRS regarding the matters in this discussion. The statements in this prospectus are not binding on the IRS or any court, and thus we can provide no assurance that the U.S. federal income tax consequences discussed below will not be challenged by the IRS or will be sustained by a court if challenged by the IRS. Furthermore, this summary does not address any estate, gift, Medicare or alternative minimum tax consequences, any state, local or non-U.S. tax consequences or any other tax consequences other than U.S. federal income tax consequences. 

 

The following discussion does not describe all the tax consequences that may be relevant to any particular investor or to persons in special tax situations such as:

 

  banks and certain other financial institutions;

 

  regulated investment companies;

 

  real estate investment trusts;

 

  insurance companies;

 

  broker-dealers;

 

  traders that elect to mark to market;

 

  tax-exempt organizations;

 

  individual retirement accounts or other tax deferred accounts;

 

  persons liable for alternative minimum tax or the Medicare contribution tax on net investment income;

 

  U.S. expatriates;

 

144

 

 

  persons holding ordinary shares as part of a straddle, hedging, constructive sale, conversion or integrated transaction;

 

  persons that actually or constructively own 10% or more of our stock by vote or value;

 

  persons that are resident or ordinarily resident in or have a permanent establishment in a jurisdiction outside the U.S.;

 

  persons who acquired ordinary shares pursuant to the exercise of any employee share option or otherwise as compensation; or

 

  partnerships or other pass-through entities or arrangements and persons holding ordinary shares through such partnerships.

 

PROSPECTIVE PURCHASERS ARE URGED TO CONSULT THEIR TAX ADVISORS ABOUT THE APPLICATION OF THE U.S. FEDERAL TAX RULES TO THEIR PARTICULAR CIRCUMSTANCES AS WELL AS THE STATE, LOCAL AND NON- U.S. TAX CONSEQUENCES TO THEM OF THE OWNERSHIP AND DISPOSITION OF ORDINARY SHARES.

 

As used herein, the term “U.S. Holder” means a beneficial owner of ordinary shares that, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, is or is treated as:

 

  an individual who is a citizen or resident of the U.S.;

 

  a corporation created or organized in or under the laws of the U.S., any state thereof or the District of Columbia;

 

  an estate whose income is subject to U.S. federal income taxation regardless of its source; or

 

  a trust that (1) is subject to the supervision of a court within the U.S. and the control of one or more U.S. persons or (2) has a valid election in effect under applicable U.S. Treasury regulations to be treated as a U.S. person.

 

The tax treatment of a partner in an entity or arrangement treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes that holds ordinary shares generally will depend on such partner’s status and the activities of the partnership. A U.S. Holder that is a partner in such partnership should consult its tax advisor.

 

Dividends and Other Distributions on Ordinary Shares

 

As described in the section entitled “Dividend Policy,” we do not anticipate declaring or paying dividends to holders of our ordinary shares in the foreseeable future. However, if we do make distributions of cash or property on our ordinary shares, and subject to the passive foreign investment company considerations discussed below, the gross amount of distributions made by us with respect to ordinary shares (including the amount of any non-U.S. taxes withheld therefrom, if any) generally will be includible as dividend income in a U.S. Holder’s gross income in the year received, to the extent such distributions are paid out of our current or accumulated earnings and profits, as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles. Because we do not maintain calculations of our earnings and profits under U.S. federal income tax principles, a U.S. Holder should expect all such distributions will be reported as dividends for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Such dividends will not be eligible for the dividends-received deduction allowed to U.S. corporations with respect to dividends received from other U.S. corporations. Dividends received by non-corporate U.S. Holders may be “qualified dividend income,” which is taxed at the lower applicable capital gains rate, provided that (1) (i) our ordinary shares are listed on and considered readily tradable on an established securities market in the U.S., or (ii) we are eligible for benefits under a comprehensive U.S. income tax treaty that includes an exchange of information program and which the U.S. Treasury Department has determined is satisfactory for these purposes, (2) we are not a passive foreign investment company (as discussed below) with respect to the U.S. Holder for either the taxable year in which the dividend was paid or the preceding taxable year, and (3) certain other requirements are met. In this regard, our ordinary shares will generally be considered to be readily tradable on an established securities market in the U.S. if they continue to be listed on Nasdaq. U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the availability of the lower rate for dividends paid with respect to ordinary shares. As of the date hereof, there is no income tax treaty in effect between the U.S. and Singapore.

 

145

 

 

Dividends on ordinary shares generally will constitute foreign source income for foreign tax credit limitation purposes. Subject to certain complex conditions and limitations, foreign taxes withheld on any distributions on the ordinary shares may be eligible for credit against a U.S. Holder’s federal income tax liability. If a refund of the tax withheld is available under the laws of the foreign jurisdiction or under a tax treaty, the amount of tax withheld that is refundable will not be eligible for such credit against a U.S. Holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability (and will not be eligible for the deduction against U.S. federal taxable income). If the dividends constitute qualified dividend income as discussed above, the amount of the dividend taken into account for purposes of calculating the foreign tax credit limitation will generally be limited to the gross amount of the dividend, multiplied by the reduced rate applicable to the qualified dividend income, divided by the highest rate of tax normally applicable to dividends. The limitation on foreign taxes eligible for credit is calculated separately with respect to specific classes of income. For this purpose, dividends distributed by us with respect to ordinary shares will generally constitute “passive category income.” A U.S. Holder who does not elect to claim a foreign tax credit for foreign taxes withheld may instead claim a deduction, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, in respect of such withholding, but only for a year in which such holder elects to do so for all creditable foreign income taxes. U.S. Treasury regulations may restrict the availability of any such credit (or deduction in lieu thereof) based on the nature of the withholding tax imposed by the foreign jurisdiction, though under current IRS guidance taxpayers generally may elect to determine the creditability of foreign taxes without regard to such restrictions for taxable years ending prior to the year further relevant guidance is issued. The rules relating to the determination of the U.S. foreign tax credit are complex, and U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the availability of a foreign tax credit in their particular circumstances and the possibility of claiming a deduction (in lieu of the foreign tax credit) for any foreign taxes paid or withheld.

 

Sale or Other Taxable Disposition of Ordinary Shares

 

Subject to the passive foreign investment company considerations discussed below, upon a sale or other taxable disposition of ordinary shares, a U.S. Holder will recognize capital gain or loss in an amount equal to the difference between the amount realized and the U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in such ordinary shares. Any such gain or loss generally will be treated as long-term capital gain or loss if the U.S. Holder’s holding period in the ordinary shares exceeds one year. Non-corporate U.S. Holders (including individuals) generally will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on long-term capital gain at preferential rates. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to significant limitations. Gain or loss, if any, realized by a U.S. Holder on the sale or other disposition of ordinary shares generally will be treated as U.S. source gain or loss for U.S. foreign tax credit limitation purposes, which will generally limit the availability of foreign tax credits.

 

Passive Foreign Investment Company Considerations

 

In general, a non-U.S. corporation will be classified as a PFIC for any taxable year if either: (a) at least 75% of its gross income is “passive income” for purposes of the PFIC rules or (b) at least 50% of the value of its assets (generally determined on the basis of a quarterly average) is attributable to assets that produce or are held for the production of passive income. For this purpose, passive income generally includes interest, dividends, royalties and other investment income, with certain exceptions. For purposes of determining whether we are a PFIC, we will be treated as owning our proportionate share of the assets and earning our proportionate share of the income of any other corporation in which we own, directly or indirectly, 25% or more (by value) of the stock.

 

Under the PFIC rules, if we were considered a PFIC at any time that a U.S. Holder holds the ordinary shares, we would continue to be treated as a PFIC with respect to such U.S. Holder’s investment in those ordinary shares unless (i) we ceased to be a PFIC and (ii) the U.S. Holder made a “deemed sale” election under the PFIC rules.

 

The determination of whether we are or will become a PFIC is a fact-intensive inquiry made on an annual basis after the close of each taxable year and that depends, in part, upon the composition of our income and assets. In addition, the application of the PFIC rules to companies with our composition of income and assets is subject to significant uncertainty. Fluctuations in the market price of our ordinary shares may cause us to become a PFIC for the current or subsequent taxable years because the value of our assets for the purpose of the second part of the test described above may be determined by reference to the market price of our ordinary shares. The composition of our income and assets may also be affected by how, and how quickly, we use our liquid assets. The IRS or a court may disagree with our determinations, including the manner in which we determine the value of our assets and the percentage of our income and assets that are passive under the PFIC rules. Therefore, there can be no assurance that we will not be a PFIC for the current taxable year or for any prior or future taxable year.

 

If we are a PFIC at any time that a U.S. Holder holds ordinary shares, any gain recognized by the U.S. Holder on a sale or other disposition of the ordinary shares, as well as the amount of any “excess distribution” (defined below) received by the U.S. Holder, would be allocated ratably over the U.S. Holder’s holding period for the ordinary shares. The amounts allocated to the taxable year of the sale or other disposition (or the taxable year of receipt, in the case of an excess distribution) and to any year before we became a PFIC would be taxed as ordinary income. The amount allocated to each other taxable year would be subject to tax at the highest rate in effect for individuals or corporations, as appropriate, for that taxable year, and an interest charge would be imposed. For the purposes of these rules, an excess distribution is the amount by which any distribution received by a U.S. Holder on ordinary shares exceeds 125% of the average of the annual distributions on the ordinary shares received during the preceding three years or the U.S. Holder’s holding period, whichever is shorter. Certain elections may be available that would result in alternative treatments (such as mark-to-market treatment) of the ordinary shares if we are considered a PFIC. We do not intend to provide information necessary for U.S. Holders to make qualified electing fund elections which, if available, would result in tax treatment different from (and generally less adverse than) the general tax treatment for PFICs described above.

 

146

 

 

If we are a PFIC for any taxable year during which a U.S. Holder holds our ordinary shares and any of our non-U.S. subsidiaries or other corporate entities in which we own equity interests are also classified as PFICs (each a “lower-tier PFIC”), such U.S. Holder would be treated as owning a proportionate amount (by value) of the shares of each such lower-tier PFIC for purposes of the application of these rules. U.S. Holders are advised to consult their tax advisors regarding the application of the PFIC rules to any lower-tier PFICs we may own.

 

If we are considered a PFIC, a U.S. Holder will also be subject to annual information reporting requirements. U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors about the potential application of the PFIC rules to an investment in ordinary shares.

 

Information Reporting and Backup Withholding

 

Dividend payments with respect to ordinary shares and proceeds from the sale, exchange or redemption of ordinary shares may be subject to information reporting to the IRS and U.S. backup withholding. A U.S. Holder may be eligible for an exemption from backup withholding if the U.S. Holder furnishes a correct taxpayer identification number and makes any other required certification or is otherwise exempt from backup withholding. U.S. Holders who are required to establish their exempt status may be required to provide such certification on IRS Form W-9. U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the application of the U.S. information reporting and backup withholding rules.

  

Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Amounts withheld as backup withholding may be credited against a U.S. Holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability, and such U.S. Holder may obtain a refund of any excess amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules by timely filing an appropriate claim for refund with the IRS and furnishing any required information.

 

Additional Information Reporting Requirements

 

Certain U.S. Holders who are individuals (and certain specified entities) that hold an interest in “specified foreign financial assets” (which may include the ordinary shares) are required to report information (on IRS From 8938) relating to such assets, subject to certain exceptions (including an exception for ordinary shares held in accounts maintained by certain financial institutions). Penalties can apply if U.S. Holders fail to satisfy such reporting requirements, and, in such circumstances, the statute of limitations for assessment of tax could be suspended, in whole or part. U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the applicability of these requirements to their acquisition and ownership of ordinary shares.

 

THE DISCUSSION ABOVE IS A GENERAL SUMMARY. IT DOES NOT COVER ALL TAX MATTERS THAT MAY BE IMPORTANT TO YOU. EACH PROSPECTIVE PURCHASER SHOULD CONSULT ITS OWN TAX ADVISOR ABOUT THE TAX CONSEQUENCES OF AN INVESTMENT IN ORDINARY SHARES UNDER THE INVESTOR’S OWN CIRCUMSTANCES.

 

Certain Singapore Taxation Considerations

 

Dividend Distributions

 

All Singapore-tax resident companies are currently under the one-tier corporate tax system, or one-tier system.

 

Under the one-tier system, the income tax paid by a tax resident company is a final tax and its distributable profits can be distributed to shareholders as tax exempt (one-tier) dividends. Such dividends are tax exempt in the hands of a shareholder, regardless of the tax residence status, shareholding level or legal form of the shareholder.

 

Accordingly, dividends received in respect of the ordinary shares by either a resident or non-resident of Singapore are not subject to Singapore income tax (whether by withholding or otherwise), on the basis that we are a tax resident of Singapore and under the one-tier system.

 

Foreign shareholders are advised to consult their own tax advisers to take into account the tax laws of their respective countries of residence and the existence of any agreement for the avoidance of double taxation which their country of residence may have with Singapore.

Any gains considered to be in the nature of capital made from the sale of our shares will not be taxable in Singapore to the extent that they do not fall within the ambit of the new Section 10L of the Income Tax Act 1947 of Singapore (the “SITA”), which came into effect on January 1, 2024.

 

Gains arising from the disposal of the shares may be construed to be of an income nature and subject to Singapore income tax, especially if they arise from activities which may be regarded as the carrying on of a trade or business in Singapore. Such gains may also be considered income in nature, even if they do not arise from an activity in the ordinary course of trade or business or an ordinary incident of some other business activity, if the shares were purchased with the intention or purpose of making a profit by sale rather than holding for long-term investment purposes in Singapore.

 

There are no specific laws or regulations which deal with the characterization of whether a gain is income or capital in nature. The characterization of gains arising from the sale of our shares will depend primarily on the facts and circumstances (commonly referred to as the “badges of trade”) of each shareholder.

 

Subject to specified exceptions and Section 10L of the SITA, Section 13W of the SITA provides for certainty on the non-taxability of gains derived by a corporate taxpayer from the disposal of ordinary shares or preference shares that are accounted for as equity by an investee company under the applicable accounting principles (or both) on or after 1 January 2026 where:

 

  (i) the divesting company had legally and beneficially held a minimum shareholding of 20% of the ordinary shares or preference shares (or both) of the company whose shares are being disposed; and

 

  (ii) the divesting company had maintained the minimum 20% shareholding for a continuous period of at least 24 months immediately prior to the disposal.

 

The above-mentioned “safe harbor rules” prescribed under Section 13W of the SITA will not apply to a divesting company under the following scenarios:

 

  (a) a divesting company whose gains or profits from the disposal of shares are included as part of its income based on the provisions of section 26 of the SITA;

 

  (b) the disposal of shares by a partnership, limited partnership and limited liability partnership one or more of the partners of which is a company or are companies; or

 

  (c) the disposal of shares on or after June 1, 2022 not listed on a stock exchange in Singapore or elsewhere, being shares in a company that the Singapore Comptroller of Income Tax is satisfied -

 

  (i) is in the business of trading immovable properties situated in Singapore or elsewhere;

 

  (ii) principally carries on the activity of holding immovable properties situated (whether in Singapore or elsewhere), whereby passive or no income is derived; or

 

  (iii) has undertaken property development (whether in Singapore or elsewhere), except where -

 

  (A) the immovable property developed is used by the company to carry on its trade or business (including the business of letting immovable properties), not being a business mentioned in sub-paragraph (i); and

 

  (B) the company did not undertake any property development in Singapore or elsewhere for a period of at least 60 consecutive months before the disposal of shares.

 

Under Section 10L of the SITA, gains received in Singapore by an entity of a relevant group from the sale or disposal of any movable or immovable property outside Singapore will be treated as income chargeable to tax under Section 10(1)(g) of the SITA under certain circumstances. Any registered shares, equity securities or securities will be deemed to be located outside Singapore if the register or principal register (if there is more than one register) is located outside Singapore regardless of where the company is incorporated. If our shares are deemed to be foreign assets, gains from their disposal will be subject to tax if an entity of a relevant group (other than an excluded entity) disposed of our shares on or after January 1, 2024. An entity is a member of a group of entities if its assets, liabilities, income, expenses and cash flows are (a) included in the consolidated financial statements of the parent entity of the group; or (b) excluded from the consolidated financial statements of the parent entity of the group solely on size or materiality grounds or on the grounds that the entity is held for sale. A group is a relevant group if (i) the entities of the group are not all incorporated, registered or established in Singapore; or (ii) any entity of the group has a place of business outside Singapore. An excluded entity is defined in Section 10L of the SITA to include a pure equity-holding company or any other entity with adequate economic substance in Singapore taking into account factors enumerated in Section 10L of the SITA.

 

148

 

 

Investors are advised to consult their own tax advisors on the applicable tax treatment if they receive gains in Singapore from the disposal of our shares.

 

Shareholders who apply, or who are required to apply, the Singapore Financial Reporting Standard 39 - Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement, or FRS 39; the Singapore Financial Reporting Standard 109 - Financial Instruments, or FRS 109; or the Singapore Financial Reporting Standard (International) 9 - Financial Instruments, or SFRS(I) 9 may for the purposes of Singapore income tax be required to recognize gains or losses in respect of financial instruments (not being gains or losses in the nature of capital) in accordance with FRS 39, FRS 109 or SFRS(I) 9 (as the case may be) (as modified by the applicable provisions of Singapore income tax law) even where no sale or disposal of the shares is made.

 

Section 34A of the SITA provides the tax treatment for financial instruments in accordance with FRS 39 (subject to certain exceptions and “opt-out” provisions) for taxpayers who are required to comply with FRS 39 for financial reporting purposes. The IRAS has also issued a circular titled “Income Tax Implications Arising from the Adoption of FRS 39 - Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement.”

 

FRS 109 or SFRS(I) 9 (as the case may be) is mandatorily effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018, replacing FRS 39. Section 34AA of the SITA requires taxpayers who comply or who are required to comply with FRS 109 or SFRS(I) 9 (as the case may be) for financial reporting purposes to calculate their profit, loss or expense for Singapore income tax purposes in respect of financial instruments in accordance with FRS 109 or SFRS(I) 9 (as the case may be), subject to certain exceptions. The IRAS has also issued a circular titled “Income Tax: Income Tax Treatment Arising from Adoption of FRS 109 - Financial Instruments.”

 

Shareholders who may be subject to the above-mentioned tax treatments, including under Sections 34A or 34AA of the SITA, should consult their accounting and tax advisers regarding the Singapore income tax consequences of their acquisition, holding and disposal of the shares.

 

Stamp Duty

 

There is no stamp duty payable on the subscription and issuance of the shares.

 

In relation to a transfer of the ordinary shares, no stamp duty is payable if no instrument of transfer is executed or if the instrument of transfer is executed outside Singapore and not received in Singapore. Accordingly, stamp duty is not applicable to electronic transfers of our shares effected solely on a book entry basis outside Singapore. We therefore expect that no Singapore stamp duty will be payable where shares are acquired by U.S. holders solely in book entry form through the facility outside Singapore established by our transfer agent and registrar outside Singapore to the extent that the instruments of transfer (including electronic instruments) are not received in Singapore and all electronic records and any information relating to such transfers are not electronically received by persons in Singapore, stored on any server or device in Singapore or made accessible to any person in Singapore.

 

Stamp duty will be payable if there is an instrument (including an electronic instrument) for the transfer of our shares which is either executed in Singapore or executed outside Singapore and received in Singapore.

 

Where the instrument of transfer is executed in Singapore, stamp duty must be paid within 14 days of the execution of the instrument of transfer. Where the instrument of transfer is executed outside Singapore and received in Singapore, stamp duty must be paid within 30 days of receipt of the instrument of transfer in Singapore. An electronic instrument that is executed outside Singapore is treated as received in Singapore in any of the following scenarios: (a) it is retrieved or accessed by a person in Singapore; (b) an electronic copy of it is stored on a device (including a computer) and brought into Singapore; or (c) an electronic copy of it is stored on a computer in Singapore.

 

149

 

 

As the relevant deeming provisions under Section 60F of the Stamp Duties Act 1929 of Singapore are quite broad, registered holders of our shares may wish to note that an electronic document executed outside Singapore may still be deemed to be received in Singapore if the branch records are retrieved or accessed in Singapore. As it may not be practical to anticipate the circumstances where an instrument may be considered received in Singapore, investors should consult their tax advisors regarding the particular Singapore stamp duty implications for them.

 

Stamp duty on an instrument of transfer of shares is payable at the rate of 0.2% of the consideration for, or open market value of, the shares, whichever is higher.

 

Stamp duty is borne by the purchaser unless there is an agreement to the contrary.

 

Estate Duty

 

Singapore estate duty was abolished with respect to all deaths occurring on or after February 15, 2008.

 

Tax Treaties Regarding Withholding Taxes

 

There is no comprehensive agreement for the avoidance of double taxation between the U.S. and Singapore which applies to withholding taxes (if any) on dividends or capital gains.

 

Goods and Services Tax

 

The sale of the shares by a GST-registered investor belonging in Singapore for GST purposes to another person belonging in Singapore is an exempt supply not subject to GST. Any input GST (for example, GST on brokerage) incurred by the GST-registered investor in connection with the making of an exempt supply is generally not recoverable from the Singapore Comptroller of GST and will become an additional cost to the investor unless the investor satisfies certain conditions prescribed under the Goods and Services Tax Act 1993 of Singapore or satisfies certain GST concessions.

 

Where the shares are sold by a GST-registered investor in the course of or furtherance of a business carried on by such investor contractually to and for the direct benefit of a person belonging outside Singapore, the sale should generally, subject to satisfaction of certain conditions, be considered a taxable supply subject to GST at 0%. Any input GST (for example, GST on brokerage) incurred by the GST-registered investor in making such a supply in the course of or furtherance of a business may be fully recoverable from the Singapore Comptroller of GST. Investors should seek their own tax advice on the recoverability of GST incurred on expenses in connection with the purchase and sale of the shares.

 

Services consisting of arranging, brokering, underwriting or advising on the issue, allotment or transfer of ownership of the shares rendered by a GST-registered person to an investor belonging in Singapore for GST purposes in connection with the investor’s purchase, sale or holding of the shares will be subject to GST at the standard rate, which is currently 9.0%. Similar services rendered by a GST-registered person contractually to an investor belonging outside Singapore and for the direct benefit of such an investor or a GST-registered person belonging in Singapore should generally, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, be subject to GST at 0%.

 

Global Anti-Base Erosion Model Rules (Pillar Two)

 

The Global Anti-Base Erosion Model Rules (Pillar Two) (“BEPS Pillar 2”) rules are implemented in Singapore via the Multinational Enterprise (Minimum Tax) Act 2024 (“MMTA”). It introduces (1) the multinational enterprise top-up tax (“MTT”), and (2) the domestic top-up tax (“DTT”).

 

The MMTA applies to a multinational enterprise (“MNE”) group for a financial year beginning on or after 1 January 2025 if its annual consolidated group revenue (determined by reference to the consolidated financial statements of its ultimate parent entity) for at least 2 financial years out of the 4 financial years immediately before that financial year is equal to or exceeds EUR 750 million.

 

150

 

 

MTT applies to a Singapore parent entity’s ownership interest in its relevant entities outside Singapore and its stateless entities but does not apply to its ownership interest in its domestic entities. The minimum rate for MTT is 15% and the top-up amount is computed using the effective tax rate (“ETR”) that is calculated on a jurisdictional basis for an MNE group. The charging provision for MTT is found in section 12 of the MMTA, which imposes MTT on an entity if (1) the entity is a responsible member of an MNE group at any time in the financial year, (2) the MNE group is an in-scope MNE group for the financial year, (3) the entity holds an ownership interest in another constituent entity (“CE”) of the MNE group at any time in the financial year, (4) that other CE is located in a jurisdiction outside Singapore or is a stateless entity, and has a top up amount for the financial year, and (5) the entity is located in Singapore.

 

The DTT imposes a top-up tax on certain CEs located in Singapore to raise their ETR to at least 15%. The charging provision for the DTT is section 28 of the MMTA, which imposes DTT equivalent to the on an MNE group for a financial year if (1) the MNE group is an in-scope MNE group, (2) at least one of its CEs is located in Singapore or is: (a) a flow through entity established, formed, incorporated or registered under the laws of Singapore, (b) not a responsible member, and (c) a reverse hybrid entity with respect to any of its income, expenditure, profit or loss, and (3) the MNE group has a top up amount for that financial year.

 

In-scope MNE groups are subject to various administrative requirements. This includes registering under the MMTA, designating a Singapore CE to be a Designated Local DTT Filing Entity (“DFE”) / Designated Local GIR Filing Entity (“GFE”), submitting MTT and DTT returns, and making a GloBE information return (“GIR”) filing.

 

However, excluded entities are excluded from the MTT and DTT. While their revenue is still taken into account to determine if the MNE group is in-scope, their attributes such as their profits, losses, taxes accrued, tangible assets, and payroll expenses are excluded from the various computations under MTT and DTT including the de minimis exclusion. Further, such entities are not subject to any administrative obligations under MTT and DTT, such as the filing of a GloBE Information Return. Excluded entities include a governmental entity, an international organisation and a non-profit organisation.

 

Further, the MTT and DTT regimes also provide for safe harbours that help reduce the MNE groups’ compliance burden. Where a safe harbour is elected by an MNE group for a jurisdiction, the top-up amounts for qualifying entities of the MNE group in the jurisdiction are treated as nil. Singapore currently has three safe harbours: (1) transitional CbCR Safe Harbour, (2) simplified Calculations Safe Harbour, and (3) QDMTT Safe Harbour.

 

Penalties may be imposed under the MMT Act where an in-scope MNE group fails to meet its obligations for MTT and DTT. As MTT and DTT rules are new, MNEs will require time to familiarize themselves with the rules. In view that some MNEs have given feedback that such rules are complex, IRAS will adopt a light touch approach for the first 3 FYs from FY 2025, if an MNE group can demonstrate that it has taken reasonable measures to ensure the correct application of the rules.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

 

We are registering the issuance by us of up to 6,044,160 Company Class A Shares issuable upon the exercise of the Company Warrants. Pursuant to the terms of the Company Warrants, Company Shares will be distributed to those holders who surrender the Company Warrants and provide payment of the exercise price to us. Upon receipt of proper notice by any of the holders of the Warrants issued that such holder desires to exercise the warrant, we will, within the time allotted by the agreement governing the warrants, issue instructions to our transfer agent to issue Company Shares to the holder. If, at the time the Company Public Warrants are exercised, this registration statement is effective and the prospectus included herein is current, the Company Shares issued upon the exercise of the Company Public Warrants will be issued free of a restrictive legend. We could potentially receive up to an aggregate of US$69,507,840 from the exercise of the Company Warrants, assuming the exercise in full of all of these warrants for cash. Based on the closing price for our Class A Shares at US$13.05 on April 20, 2026, which is greater than the exercise price of US$11.50 per share pursuant to the terms of the Warrants, we believe warrant holders may exercise their Company Warrants, and, if the Company Warrants are exercised on a cash basis, we will receive proceeds from the exercise of Warrants. To the extent that we receive any net proceeds in connection with the exercise of Company Warrants, we expect to use such net proceeds for general corporate purposes.

 

We are also registering the resale, from time to time, by the Selling Securityholders, or their permitted transferees, of up to (1) 2,884,660 Company Private Warrants and (2) 52,966,280 Company Class A Shares. The aggregate proceeds to the Selling Securityholders from the sale of such securities will be the purchase price of the securities less any discounts and commissions. The Selling Securityholders will pay any underwriting discounts and commissions and expenses incurred by the Selling Securityholders for brokerage, accounting, tax or legal services or any other expenses incurred by the Selling Securityholders in disposing of the securities. We will bear all other costs, fees and expenses incurred in effecting the registration of the securities covered by this prospectus, including, without limitation, all registration and filing fees, Nasdaq listing fees and fees and expenses of our counsel and our independent registered public accountants.

 

The Selling Securityholders reserve the right to accept and, together with their respective agents, to reject, any proposed purchases of Registered Securities to be made directly or through agents. We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of the securities registered hereby by the Selling Securityholders.

 

Upon effectiveness of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, the securities covered by this prospectus that are beneficially owned by the Selling Securityholders may be offered and sold from time to time by the Selling Securityholders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Selling Securityholders subject to our insider trading policy, and any members of their immediate families, are subject to our regular pre-clearance procedures for trading of our securities. For lock-up arrangement applicable to certain securities covered by this prospectus that are beneficially owned by the Selling Securityholders, see “Shares Eligible for Future Sale — Lock-up Agreements.”

 

Selling Securityholders may also be subject to the restrictions on transfer of shares of Rule 144 of the Securities Act if such Selling Securityholder is deemed an “affiliate” of us. Persons who may be deemed to be affiliates include individuals or entities that control, are controlled by, or are under common control with, us and may include the executive officers, directors and significant shareholders of us.

 

The term “Selling Securityholders” includes pledgees, donees, transferees, assignees or other successors in interest (that receive any of the securities as a gift, distribution, or other non-sale related transfer) of the Selling Securityholders named in this prospectus. The Selling Securityholders will act independently of us in making decisions with respect to the timing, manner and size of each sale. Such sales may be made on one or more exchanges or in the over-the-counter market or otherwise, at prices and under terms then prevailing or at prices related to the then current market price or in negotiated transactions. The Selling Securityholders and any of their permitted transferees may sell their securities offered by this prospectus on any stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the securities are traded or in private transactions.

 

152

 

 

The Registered Securities offered by the Selling Securityholders under this prospectus may be sold from time to time to purchasers:

 

  directly by the Selling Securityholders;

 

  to or through underwriters, broker-dealers or agents, who may receive compensation in the form of discounts, commissions or agent’s commissions from the Selling Securityholders or the purchasers of the Registered Securities;
     
  through trading plans entered into by a Selling Securityholder pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act that are in place at the time of an offering pursuant to this prospectus and any applicable prospectus supplement hereto that provide for periodic sales of their securities on the basis of parameters described in such trading plans;

 

  ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker solicits purchasers;

 

  block trades in which the broker-dealer so engaged will attempt to sell the securities as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;

 

  directly to purchasers, including through a specific bidding, auction or other process or in privately negotiated transactions;

 

  through the writing of options (including the issuance by the Selling Securityholders of derivative securities), whether the options or such other derivative securities are listed on an options exchange or otherwise;

 

  through an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;

 

  in “at the market” offerings, as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act, at negotiated prices, at prices prevailing at the time of sale or at prices related to such prevailing market prices, including sales made directly on a national securities exchange or sales made through a market maker other than on an exchange or other similar offerings through sales agents;

 

  through one or more underwritten offerings on a firm commitment or best efforts basis;

 

  through the settlement of short sales,

 

  any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law; and

 

  a combination of any such methods of sale.

 

Any underwriters, broker-dealers or agents who participate in the sale or distribution of the Registered Securities may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act. As a result, any discounts, commissions or concessions received by any such broker-dealer or agents who are deemed to be underwriters will be deemed to be underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act. Underwriters are subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act and may be subject to certain statutory liabilities under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act. We will make copies of this prospectus available to the Selling Securityholders for the purpose of satisfying the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. To our knowledge, there are currently no plans, arrangements or understandings between the Selling Securityholders and any underwriter, broker-dealer or agent regarding the sale of the Registered Securities by the Selling Securityholders.

 

The Registered Securities may be sold in one or more transactions at:

 

fixed prices;

 

prevailing market prices at the time of sale;

 

prices related to such prevailing market prices;

 

varying prices determined at the time of sale; or

 

negotiated prices.

 

153

 

 

These sales may be effected in one or more transactions:

 

  on any securities exchange or quotation service on which the Registered Securities may be listed or quoted at the time of sale, including Nasdaq;

 

  in the over-the-counter market;

 

  in transactions otherwise than on such exchanges or services or in the over-the-counter market;

 

  any other method permitted by applicable law; or

 

  through any combination of the foregoing.

 

In connection with the sales of our securities, the Selling Securityholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions that, in turn, may:

 

  engage in short sales of the securities in the course of hedging their positions;

 

  sell the securities short and deliver the securities to close out short positions;

 

  loan or pledge the securities to broker-dealers or other financial institutions that in turn may sell the securities;

 

  enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions that require the delivery to the broker-dealer or other financial institution of the securities, which the broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell; or

 

  enter into transactions in which a broker-dealer makes purchases as a principal for resale for its own account or through other types of transactions.

 

In addition, a Selling Securityholder that is an entity may elect to make a pro rata in-kind distribution of securities to its members, partners or stockholders pursuant to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part by delivering a prospectus with a plan of distribution. Such members, partners or stockholders would thereby receive freely tradeable securities pursuant to the distribution through a registration statement. To the extent a distributee is an affiliate of ours (or to the extent otherwise required by law), we may file a prospectus supplement in order to permit the distributees to use the prospectus to resell the securities acquired in the distribution. The Selling Securityholder also may transfer the securities in other circumstances, in which case the transferees, pledgees or other successors-in-interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus.

 

At the time a particular offering of the Registered Securities is made, a prospectus supplement, if required, will be distributed, which will set forth the name of the Selling Securityholders, the aggregate amount of Registered Securities being offered and the terms of the offering, including, to the extent required, (1) the name or names of any underwriters, broker-dealers or agents, (2) any discounts, commissions and other terms constituting compensation from the Selling Securityholders and (3) any discounts, commissions or concessions allowed or reallowed to be paid to broker-dealers. We may suspend the sale of the Registered Securities by the Selling Securityholders pursuant to this prospectus for certain periods of time for certain reasons, including if the prospectus is required to be supplemented or amended to include additional material information.

 

There can be no assurance that the Selling Securityholders will sell any or all of the Registered Securities under this prospectus. Further, we cannot assure you that the Selling Securityholders will not transfer, distribute, devise or gift the Registered Securities by other means not described in this prospectus. In addition, any Registered Securities covered by this prospectus that qualify for sale under Rule 144 of the Securities Act may be sold under Rule 144 rather than under this prospectus. The Registered Securities may be sold in some states only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in some states the Registered Securities may not be sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale or an exemption from registration or qualification is available and complied with.

 

The Selling Securityholders and any other persons participating in the sale of the Registered Securities will be subject to the Exchange Act. The Exchange Act rules include, without limitation, Regulation M, which may limit the timing of purchases and sales of any of the Registered Securities by the Selling Securityholders and any other person. In addition, Regulation M may restrict the ability of any person engaged in the distribution of the Registered Securities to engage in market-making activities with respect to the particular Registered Securities being distributed. This may affect the marketability of the Registered Securities and the ability of any person or entity to engage in market-making activities with respect to the Registered Securities.

 

With respect to those Registered Securities being registered pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement and PIPE Subscription Agreements, we and the Selling Securityholders have agreed to indemnify or hold harmless each other and certain related persons against certain liabilities, including certain liabilities under the Securities Act. The Selling Securityholders may also indemnify any broker or underwriter that participates in transactions involving the sale of the Registered Securities against certain liabilities, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act.

 

For additional information regarding expenses of registration, see the section titled “Use of Proceeds.”

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

 

To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of Horizon Quantum Holdings Ltd. and Subsidiaries

 

Opinion on the Financial Statements

 

We have audited the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets of Horizon Quantum Holdings Ltd and its subsidiaries (the “Group”) as of December 31, 2025, and the related Consolidated Statements of Operations, Consolidated Statements of Stockholders’ Deficit and Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the period ended December 31 2025 and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Group as of December 31, 2025 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the period ended December 2025 in conformity with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).

 

Basis for opinion

 

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Group’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. 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 Group 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 audits 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 consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Group is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting.

 

As part of our audits, 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 Group’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

 

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, 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 consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

We have served as the Group’s auditor since 2025.

Notes to the Financial Statements

 

1.DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

 

Horizon Quantum Holdings Ltd. (formerly known as Rose Holdco Pte. Ltd.) (the “Company”) was incorporated in the Republic of Singapore on August 26, 2025. The company was formed for the purpose of effecting a merger between Horizon Quantum Computing Pte. Ltd. (“Horizon”), dMY Squared Technology Group, Inc. (“dMY”) and certain other affiliated entities through a series of transactions (the “Business Combination”) and it has not conducted any activities other those incidental to its formation and the transactions contemplated by the business combination agreement. As a result of the Business Combination, Horizon will become a wholly-owned, direct subsidiary of the Company.

 

2.SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The Company’s consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Rose Acquisition Pte. Ltd. and Horizon Merger Sub 2, Inc. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying financial statements are presented in Singapore dollars, denoted as S$, which is also the Company’s functional currency and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and pursuant to the accounting rules and regulations of the SEC. References to GAAP issued by the FASB in these accompanying notes to the financial statements are to the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”).

 

Deposits

 

Deposits paid represent refundable amounts advanced to vendors in connection with certain contractual arrangements. These deposits are intended to secure the Company’s obligations under the related arrangements and are refundable upon the termination of the agreements and do not represent prepaid consideration for services received.

 

Receivables

 

Receivables due from a shareholder are recognized when the Company has a contractual or legal right to receive cash or other consideration from a shareholder. They are classified as current assets on the statement of financial position based on the terms. Receivables are recognized at transaction value less allowance for credit losses. The Company adopted the Current Expected Credit Losses (“CECL”) guidance effective January 1, 2023. The Company maintains the allowance for estimated losses resulting from the inability of the Company’s customers to make required payments. The allowance represents the carrying value less estimated losses current estimate of lifetime expected credit losses over the remaining duration of existing accounts receivable considering current market conditions and supportable forecasts when appropriate. The estimate is a result of the Company’s ongoing evaluation of collectability, customer creditworthiness, historical levels of credit losses, and future expectations. The allowance for credit losses were not significant as of December 31, 2025.

HORIZON QUANTUM HOLDINGS LTD. AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to the Financial Statements

 

General and Administrative Expenses

 

General and administrative expenses consist primarily of professional and advisory fees in connection with the Business Combination and company formation related activities. These are expensed as incurred and included within operating expenses in the consolidated statements of operations.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of the accompanying financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosure of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate is the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the financial statements, which could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.

 

Segment Information

 

ASC 280, “Segment Reporting” (“ASC 280”), defines operating segments as components of an enterprise where discrete financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision-maker (“CODM”) in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company operates as a single operating segment. The Company’s CODM is the President, who has ultimate responsibility for the operating performance of the Company and the allocation of resources. The CODM uses cash flows as the primary measure to manage the business and does not segment the business for internal reporting or decision making.

 

Concentration of Credit Risk

 

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash accounts in a financial institution and notes receivables. Cash accounts in a financial institution may at times exceed the Federal Depository Insurance Corporation limit. There was no cash and cash equivalent balance as at December 31, 2025.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

 

The Company has evaluated recently issued accounting pronouncements and has determined that none are expected to have a material impact on its financial statements. The Company will adopt new standards on their respective effective dates.

 

Fair Value Measurement

 

The Company’s assets consist of receivables due from a shareholder while liabilities consist of payables that qualify as financial instruments under ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosure”. The receivables and payables approximate fair value because of the short-term nature of the instrument.

 

Liquidity and Going Concern

 

For the period from August 26, 2025 (inception) through December 31, 2025, the Company has not generated revenue and reported a net loss of S$107,851. As of December 31, 2025, the Company had an aggregate cash of $-0- and a net working capital deficit of S$107,851.

HORIZON QUANTUM HOLDINGS LTD. AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to the Financial Statements

 

The Company assesses its liquidity in terms of its ability to generate adequate amounts of cash to meet current and future needs. Its expected primary uses of cash on a short and long-term basis are for working capital requirements, business acquisitions and other liquidity needs. The Company’s management expects that future operating losses and negative operating cash flows may increase from historical levels because of additional costs and expenses related to the business operations. As previously disclosed, these conditions raised substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements were issued.

 

The primary objective of the Company’s capital management is to ensure that it maintains sound capital position in order to support its business and maximize shareholder’s value. On March 19, 2026, the Company consummated the previously announced business combination (the “Business Combination”) with dMY Squared Technology Group, Inc. (“dMY”). Upon closing of the Business Combination, the Company will continue as the holding company of the group and will be a publicly traded entity. The closing of the Business Combination provides the group with gross proceeds of approximately US$120 million, consisting of funds held in dMY’s trust account (after redemptions) and proceeds from a concurrent PIPE financing. Accordingly, management has concluded that the conditions that previously raised substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern has been alleviated.

 

The Company’s future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including the Company’s timing of the consummation of the Business Combination. In order to finance these opportunities, the Company will need to raise additional financing. While there can be no assurances, the Company intends to raise such capital through issuances of additional common units. If additional financing is required from outside sources, the Company may not be able to raise such capital on terms acceptable to the Company or at all. If the Company is unable to raise additional capital when desired, the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition would be materially and adversely affected.

 

3.RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

 

Due from Shareholder

 

As of December 31, 2025, the Company had an amount receivable from a shareholder of S$1, which is presented as current assets on the accompanying balance sheet. The receivable is non-interest-bearing and due on demand.

 

Related Party Liabilities

 

As of December 31, 2025, the Company had S$127,851 payable to Horizon Quantum Computing Pte. Ltd., an operating entity that is under common control with the Company. The entity is not consolidated in the Company’s consolidated financial statements as the Company did not have a controlling financial interest during the periods presented. The amounts payable represent working capital support in connection with the Business Combination and company formation related activities. Upon consummation of the Business Combination, the related party is expected to become a consolidated subsidiary of the Company and the related party balances are expected to be eliminated in consolidation.

4.STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

 

Ordinary Shares

 

As of December 31, 2025, the authorized share capital of the Company consists of 1 ordinary share with a total share value of S$1. The holder of ordinary share is entitled to receive dividends as declared from time to time and is entitled to one vote per share at meetings of the Company. All ordinary shares rank equally with regard to the Company’s residual assets.

 

5.COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

In the normal course of business, the Company may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings. While the ultimate results of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty, management does not expect them to have a material adverse effect on the financial position or results of operations of the Company.

 

6.SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

The Company evaluated subsequent events from December 31, 2025, the date of these financial statements, through the date on which the financial statements were issued (the “Issuance Date”), for events requiring recording or disclosure in the financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2025. The Company concluded that no events have occurred that would require recognition or disclosure in the financial statements, except as described below.

 

On March 19, 2026, the Company consummated the previously announced business combination (the “Business Combination”) with dMY Squared Technology Group, Inc. (“dMY”). Upon closing of the Business Combination, the Company will continue as the holding company of the group and will be a publicly traded entity. On March 20, 2026, the Company’s Class A ordinary shares and warrants commenced trading on Nasdaq under the ticker symbols “HQ” and “HQWWW” respectively. The Closing of the Business Combination provides the group with gross proceeds of approximately US$120 million, consisting of funds held in dMY’s trust account (after redemptions) and proceeds from a concurrent PIPE financing.

 

On March 31, 2026, the Company and IonQ Quantum, Inc (“IonQ”) entered into a Quantum Systems Agreement, pursuant to which, the Company purchased, among other things, a dedicated trapped-ion quantum computing system from IonQ for an aggregate consideration of US$35 million. IonQ will procure, construct, install, and verify a trapped-ion quantum computing system meeting specified performance benchmarks and install it in a data center designated and operated by the Company.

1.DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

 

Horizon Quantum Computing Pte. Ltd. (the “Company”) is incorporated in the Republic of Singapore. The Company focuses on developing software tools that simplify and accelerate the creation of applications for quantum computers and also provide quantum computing services on an individual basis. The Company’s flagship product, Triple Alpha, is a web-based integrated development environment (IDE) that allows developers to write quantum software using familiar classical programming languages. The Software enables software developers without prior quantum experience to harness the power of quantum computing. 

 

2.SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The Company’s consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, Horizon Quantum Computing (Ireland) Limited. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) and applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regarding annual financial reporting. Any reference in these notes to applicable accounting guidance is meant to refer to the authoritative U.S. GAAP included in the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”), and Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”).

 

Use of Estimates

 

Management of the Company is required to make certain estimates, judgments, and assumptions during the preparation of its consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The Company believes that these estimates, judgments and assumptions are reasonable under the circumstances. These estimates, judgments, and assumptions impact the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Changes in such estimates could affect amounts reported in future periods. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates and judgments including those related to the useful lives and recoverability of property and equipment and definite-lived intangible assets; the carrying value of accounts receivable, including the determination of the allowance for credit losses; the incremental borrowing rate for the Company’s leases; and the valuation of stock-based compensation, SAFE derivative liabilities among others.

 

Convenience translation

 

Translations of balances in the consolidated balance sheets, consolidated statements of operations, consolidated statements of comprehensive loss, consolidated statements of changes in stockholders’ equity, consolidated statements of cash flows and notes to the consolidated financial statements from SGD into USD as of December 31, 2025 are solely for the convenience of the readers and are calculated at the rate of SGD 1.00 = USD 0.7777, representing the exchange rate set forth in the H.10 statistical release of the Federal Reserve Board on December 31, 2025. No representation is made that the SGD amounts could have been, or could be, converted, realized or settled into USD at such rate, or at any other rate. 

 

Emerging Growth Company Status

 

The Company is an emerging growth company, as defined in the JOBS Act. Under the JOBS Act, emerging growth companies can delay adopting new or revised accounting standards issued subsequent to the enactment of the JOBS Act, until such time as those standards apply to private companies. The Company has elected to use this extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until the earlier of the date that it (i) is no longer an emerging growth company or (ii) affirmatively and irrevocably opts out of the extended transition period provided in the JOBS Act. As a result, these financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with the new or revised accounting pronouncements as of public company effective dates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

Cash balances are held in Singaporean and European banks. The Company maintains its cash balances in highly rated financial institutions. At times, cash balances may exceed federally insurable limits.

 

Cash equivalents are short-term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash, and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. These typically include treasury bills, money market funds, and other short-term instruments with original maturities of three months or less. 

 

Restricted Cash

 

The Company is not subject to any contractual agreement that contains restrictions on the Company’s use or withdrawal of its cash or cash equivalents.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Revenue from sale of services in the ordinary course of business is recognized when the Company satisfies a performance obligation (PO) by transferring control of a promised service to the customer.

 

The amount of revenue recognized is the amount of the transaction price allocated to the satisfied PO.

 

The transaction price is allocated to each PO in the contract on the basis of the relative stand- alone selling prices of the promised services. The individual standalone selling price of a service that has not previously been sold on a stand-alone basis, or has a highly variable selling price, is determined based on the residual portion of the transaction price after allocating the transaction price to services with observable stand-alone selling prices. A discount or variable consideration is allocated to one or more, but not all, of the performance obligations if it relates specifically to those POs.

 

The transaction price is the amount of consideration in the contract to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring the promised services. The transaction price may be fixed or variable and is adjusted for time value of money if the contract includes a significant financing component. Consideration payable to a customer is deducted from the transaction price if the Company does not receive a separate identifiable benefit from the customer. When consideration is variable, the estimated amount is included in the transaction price to the extent that it is highly probable that a significant reversal of the cumulative revenue will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is resolved.

 

Revenue may be recognized at a point in time or over time following the timing of satisfaction of the PO. If a PO is satisfied over time, revenue is recognized based on the percentage of completion reflecting the progress towards complete satisfaction of that PO.

 

The following table provides information about the nature and timing of the satisfaction of performance obligations in contract with customers, including significant payment terms, and the related revenue recognition policies:

 

Rendering of services

 

  Nature of services The Company provides research and development services on quantum algorithms.

Accounts Receivable

 

Trade accounts receivable are recognized and carried at billed amounts less an allowance for credit losses. The Company adopted the Current Expected Credit Losses (“CECL”) guidance effective January 1, 2023. The Company maintains the allowance for estimated losses resulting from the inability of the Company’s customers to make required payments. The allowance represents the current estimate of lifetime expected credit losses over the remaining duration of existing accounts receivable considering current market conditions and supportable forecasts when appropriate. The estimate is a result of the Company’s ongoing evaluation of collectability, customer creditworthiness, historical levels of credit losses, and future expectations. The allowance for credit losses were not significant as of December 31, 2025 and 2024.

 

Property and Equipment, net

 

Property and equipment, net is stated at cost and depreciated on a straight-line basis of three to seven years for furniture and fixtures and computer equipment. Leasehold improvements are capitalized and amortized over the shorter of their useful lives or remaining lease term. Repair and maintenance costs are charged to operations in the periods incurred. Upon retirement or sale, costs and related accumulated depreciation or amortization are removed from the balance sheets and the resulting gain or loss is included in operating expense in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

 

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

 

Long-lived assets with finite lives consist primarily of property and equipment, operating lease right-of-use assets, and intangible assets which are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to the undiscounted future net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future undiscounted cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset.

 

Leases

 

Leases are accounted for under ASC 842. The Company determines if an arrangement is or contains a lease at inception. The Company’s operating lease arrangements are comprised of real estate and facility leases. Right of use assets represent the Company’s right to use the underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Right of use assets and lease liabilities are recognized at the commencement date based on the present value of the lease payments over the lease term. As the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate and the implicit rate is not readily determinable, the Company estimates its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the measurement date in determining the present value of the lease payments. Right of use assets also exclude lease incentives.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation expense in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”). The Company measures and recognizes compensation expense for all stock-based awards based on estimated fair values on the date of the grant, recognized over the requisite service period. For awards that vest solely based on a service condition, the Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period. The Company accounts for forfeitures in the period in which they occur.

Income and Other Expenses, Operating Income / Losses


Income and other expenses are recognized on an accrual basis when it is probable that economic benefits will flow to or from the Company and the amounts can be reliably measured. Other income may include interest income, foreign exchange gains, and miscellaneous non-operating income.

 

Operating income or losses represent the profit or loss from the Company’s core business operations, excluding finance costs, taxation, and other non-operating items. It is a key performance measure used by management to assess the results of operations.

 

Foreign Operations and Foreign Currency Translation

 

The currency of the primary economic environment in which the operations of the Company are conducted is the Singapore Dollar (“SGD”). The Company uses SGD as their functional currency. The results of the Company’s

non-Singaporean subsidiary, whose functional currency are the local currencies of the economic environment in which they operate, are translated into SGD in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

  

Assets and liabilities are translated at year-end exchange rates, while revenues and expenses are translated at average exchange rates during the year. Differences resulting from translation are presented in equity as accumulated other comprehensive loss. Transaction gains and losses that arise from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are included in the results of operations as incurred. Foreign currency transaction (gain) loss, mainly related to intercompany transactions, is included in the consolidated statements of operations. For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, there was a gain of S$154,184 (US$119,904) and loss of S$17,185 (US$13,364), respectively.

 

Simple Agreement for Future Equity (“SAFE”)

 

The Company accounts for SAFE arrangements in accordance with ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity, ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and ASC 470, Debt.

 

The Company evaluates each SAFE at issuance to determine whether the instrument should be classified as a liability or as equity. SAFEs that provide the holder with the right to receive cash upon the occurrence of a liquidity event or dissolution, or that otherwise do not meet the criteria for equity classification, are accounted for as financial liabilities.

 

Liability classified SAFEs that do not require bifurcation as derivative instruments are initially recognized at their issuance-date proceeds, net of issuance costs, and subsequently measured at fair value, with changes in fair value recognized in earnings as Other income and expense in the consolidated statement of operations, which reflect the estimated timing and probability of conversion or settlement events.

 

Critical Accounting Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Critical accounting estimates are those estimates made in accordance with GAAP that involve a significant level of estimation uncertainty and have had or are reasonably likely to have a material impact on the financial condition or results of operations of the company. In accounting for stock-based compensation, the use of valuation methods for awards granted when the Company’s ordinary shares are not publicly traded, the use of estimates in option valuation model inputs such as expected volatility, term of options, risk-free interest rate are subjective and the change in these assumptions can materially affect the amount of stock-based compensation expense recognized in the consolidated financial statements.

 

Fair Value Measurements

 

The Company measures certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value on a recurring basis in accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.

 

F-24

 

 

Horizon Quantum Computing Pte. Ltd. and Subsidiary
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
For the Years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024

 

The Company applies a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described as follows:

 

Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

 

Level 2 – Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets in markets that are not active, and inputs other than quoted prices that are observable or corroborated by observable market data.

 

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

 

When available, the Company uses quoted market prices to determine fair value and classifies such items within Level 1. If quoted market prices are not available, the Company uses valuation techniques consistent with the market approach, income approach, or cost approach. Valuation techniques used maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.

 

Financial Instruments

 

The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and other receivables, accounts payable and accrued liabilities. The Company does not utilize derivative instruments or investments and does not have any outstanding debt as of the date of the consolidated financial statements. The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents are at cost which approximates fair value due to the high liquidity of these instruments. Accounts receivable and other receivables are recorded at amortized cost, net of any allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company evaluates the collectability of receivables and records an allowance for expected credit losses when necessary. Accounts payable and accrued liabilities are recorded at cost and approximate fair value due to their short-term nature.

 

Basic and Diluted Net Loss Per Share

 

Basic net loss per share is calculated by dividing net loss attributable to Seed Preference, Seed Plus Preference, Series A Preference, and Ordinary Shareholders by the weighted-average number of shares of Seed Preference, Seed Plus Preference, Series A Preference, and Ordinary shares outstanding during the year. Diluted net loss per share is based upon the diluted weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the year. Diluted net loss per share gives effect to all potentially dilutive common share equivalents, including preferred stock and stock options, to the extent they are dilutive. See to Note 10 – Net Loss Per Share.

 

Comprehensive Loss

 

Comprehensive loss consists of two components, net loss and other comprehensive income (loss), net. Other comprehensive income (loss), net is defined as revenue, expenses, gains, and losses that under U.S. GAAP are recorded as an element of stockholders’ deficit but are excluded from net loss. The Company’s other comprehensive loss consists of foreign currency translation adjustments that result from the consolidation of its foreign subsidiaries and is reported net of tax effects.

 

Concentration of Risks

 

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a significant concentration of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, and accounts receivable. The Company maintains its cash with major financial institutions in Singapore, which are regulated by the Monetary Authority of Singapore (“MAS”). While these balances may exceed the amounts insured under the Singapore Deposit Insurance Scheme (“SDIC”), the Company has not experienced any losses.

Segments

 

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 chief operating decision maker, or group, in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance.

 

The Company’s chief operating decision maker (“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 therefore there is only on reportable segment.

 

Accounting Pronouncements Recently Adopted

 

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, “Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures”. This ASU includes amendments that expand the existing reportable segment disclosure requirements and requires disclosure of (i) significant expense categories and amounts by reportable segment as well as the segment’s profit or loss measure(s) that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker (the “CODM”) to allocate resources and assess performance; (ii) how the CODM uses each reported segment profit or loss measure to allocate resources and assess performance; (iii) the nature of other segment balances contributing to reported segment profit or loss that are not captured within segment revenues or expenses; and (iv) the title and position of the individual or name of the group or committee identified as the CODM. We adopted the ASU on January 1, 2024, and the adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

 

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures”. The ASU requires that an entity disclose specific categories in the effective tax rate reconciliation as well as reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold. Further, the ASU requires additional disclosures on income tax expense and taxes paid, net of refunds received, by jurisdiction. The new standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024 on a prospective basis with the option to apply it retrospectively. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this guidance will result in the Company being required to include enhanced income tax related disclosures. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this standard will have on its consolidated financial statements.

 

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, “Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40):Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses” (“ASU 2024-03”). The standard requires additional disclosure of certain costs and expenses within the notes to the financial statements. The provisions of the standard are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. This accounting standards update may be applied either prospectively or retrospectively. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this standard will have on its consolidated financial statements.

 

Liquidity and Going Concern

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared using the going concern basis of accounting, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.

 

The Company has incurred net losses of S$23.1 million (US$17.9 million) and S$7.5 million (US$5.8 million) during the year ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and has an accumulated deficit of S$44.5 million (US$34.6 million) as of December 31, 2025. As previously disclosed, these conditions raised substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements were issued.

The primary objective of the Company’s capital management is to ensure that it maintains sound capital position in order to support its business and maximize shareholder’s value. On March 19, 2026, the Company consummated the previously announced business combination (the “Business Combination”) with dMY Squared Technology Group, Inc. (“dMY”). Upon closing of the Business Combination, the Company will continue as the surviving company and become the primary operating entity under the umbrella of Horizon Quantum Holdings Ltd., which will be a publicly traded entity. The closing of the Business Combination provides the group with gross proceeds of approximately US$120 million, consisting of funds held in dMY’s trust account (after redemptions) and proceeds from a concurrent PIPE financing. Accordingly, management has concluded that the conditions that previously raised substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern has been alleviated.

 

The Company’s future capital requirements will depend on many factors including the Company’s revenue growth rate, the timing and extent of spending to support further sales and marketing and research and development efforts. In order to finance these opportunities, the Company may need to raise additional financing. While there can be no assurances, the Company may need to pursue issuances of additional equity raises and debt rounds of financing. If additional financing is required from outside sources, the Company may not be able to raise it on terms acceptable to the Company or at all. If the Company is unable to raise additional capital when desired, the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition would be materially and adversely affected.

7.Right-of-Use Assets and Lease Liabilities

 

Operating lease right-of-use assets and lease liabilities are recognized based on the net present value of remaining lease payments over the lease term. In calculating the present value, the Company uses its estimated incremental borrowing rate, determined based on available information as of the later of the lease commencement date, the lease modification date, or the date of adoption of ASC 842. The right-of-use asset also includes any initial direct costs and is adjusted for lease incentives received.

 

The right-of-use asset as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 are S$591,491 (US$459,982) and S$735,067 (US$571,636), respectively.

 

As of December 31, 2025, the maturities of the Company’s operating lease liabilities were as follows:

8.Simple Agreement for Future Equity (“SAFE”)

 

During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company entered into SAFE arrangements with certain investors and received cash proceeds of US$5,884,000 (“Purchase Amount”). In accordance with terms set out in the SAFE agreements, SAFE Holders may automatically receive preference shares upon the close of a qualifying equity financing, SPAC transaction or by a maturity date that is 24 months from the date of issuance if not previously converted. In addition, SAFE Holders may receive proceeds in a liquidity or dissolution event. The Purchase Amount is comprised of (i) a secondary component, equal to 16% of the Purchase Amount (the “Secondary Component”), and a primary component, equal to 84% of the Purchase Amount (the “Primary Component”). The Company may use the Secondary Component to (i) meet the Company’s working capital requirements, and/or (ii) buy back and cancel Shares and/or cancel allocated and vested Options. The Company will use the Primary Component to meet the Company’s working capital requirements, or for any other purpose approved in accordance with the agreement.

The Company determined that the SAFEs meet the definition of a liability under ASC 480 and will be recorded at fair value. The fair value of the SAFEs was determined using a probability-weighted expected return method (“PWERM”), supported by use of a Monte Carlo simulation method. The value of the SAFE liability as of December 31, 2025 is based on significant inputs not observable in the market, which represents a Level 3 measurement within the fair value hierarchy. The following table provides a reconciliation of liabilities measured at fair value:

 

Year  TOTAL

Balance as at 31 December 2025   8,238,603    6,406,878 

 

9.STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

 

Ordinary shares

 

The holder of ordinary shares is entitled to receive dividends as declared from time to time and is entitled to one vote per share at meetings of the Company. All ordinary shares rank equally with regard to the Company’s residual assets.

 

All issued shares are fully paid, with no par value.

 

Convertible preference shares

 

The holders of convertible preferences shares (“CPS”) shall be entitled to receive notices of, and attend, speak and vote at, any general meetings of the Company. The holder of the CPS shall have one vote for every ordinary share into which the number of CPS it holds is convertible to.

 

Upon any declaration of dividends, the CPS shall receive, out of funds legally available, dividends at the rate of 8% of the issue price paid for the subscription of the CPS prior to and in preference to any declaration or payment of any dividend to holders of ordinary shares.

 

Prior to any initial public offering (“IPO”), the holders of the CPS may, but shall not be obliged to convert all or some only of the CPS into ordinary shares by delivering to the Company a notice in writing of its intention. The holder of the CPS shall not be required to make any payment to the Company for the conversion of the CPS to ordinary shares. The CPS shall automatically convert into ordinary shares upon IPO.

 

The CPS will only be redeemable, upon the Company choosing to provide redemption in the event of a default by or liquidation of the Company.

 

In the event of liquidation (as defined in the investment agreement), the net proceeds from the liquidation event shall be distributed in the following manner:

 

Firstly, the holders of CPS shall receive an amount equal to the amount paid by the holders of CPS for the subscription of the relevant CPS plus all declared or accrued but unpaid dividends.

 

Thereafter, the remaining balance shall be distributed to the holders of CPS and ordinary shares on a pro rata basis.

 

In the event of default, each of the holders of the CPS may give notice to the Company to require the Company to buy-back or redeem all or part of the CPS held by it.

10. STOCK INCENTIVE PLANS

 

Employee share option plan (Equity-settled) (“ESOP Plan”)

 

The Company has granted share options to employees under its Employee Share Option Scheme known as the “The Employee Share Option Plan of Horizon Quantum Computing Pte Ltd (“ESOP”)”. A total of 793,750, 1,047,900 and 641,041 options were issued on March 1, 2022, February 1, 2025 and August 15, 2025 respectively, comprising 687,500 options exercisable at S$0.46 (US$0.36) per share, 231,250 options exercisable at US$0.80 per share, 1,278,614 options exercisable at US$7.00 per share and 285,300 options exercisable at US$12.50 per share.

 

The vesting conditions for these options are generally structured to occur up to 4 years from the date of grant. Once vested, the options may be exercised at any time up to the maturity date, which is 10 years from the date of grant.

 

In the event an employee ceases employment with the Company, the treatment of the options depends on the circumstances of departure. If employment is terminated for Cause, all vested and unvested options will be cancelled, and the Company retains the right to repurchase any shares acquired through the exercise of options at the original exercise price. If employment ends for any other reason, unvested options will be cancelled immediately, and vested options must be exercised within the period specified in the Rules; otherwise, they will lapse.

 

The Company has classified the share options as equity-settled share-based payments at fair value. The following table summarizes stock option activities for the for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024:

 

       Weighted

11.NET LOSS PER SHARE

 

Basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share are computed using the two-class method, which is an earnings allocation method that determines earnings (loss) per share for common shares and participating securities. The participating securities consist of the Company’s Preference Shareholders by the weighted-average number of shares of Seed Preference, Seed Plus Preference and Series A Preference. The undistributed earnings are allocated between common shares and participating securities as if all earnings had been distributed during the period. In periods of loss, no allocation is made to the Preference shares and diluted net loss per share is the same as basic net loss per share because common stock equivalents are excluded as their inclusion would be antidilutive.

 

The Company calculated net income/(loss) per share using the treasury stock method. The table below sets for the computation of basic and diluted net income/(loss) per share for the period presented below.

 

   For the Year Ended December 31, 
   2024   2025   2025 
   SGD   SGD   USD 
Net income (loss)   (7,483,174)   (23,065,676)   (17,937,378)
Basic and diluted weighted average common shares outstanding   16,023,350    16,023,350    16,023,350 
Basic and diluted net income (loss) per share   (0.47)   (1.44)   (1.12)

 

The following outstanding balances of common share equivalent securities have been excluded from the calculation of diluted weighted average common shares outstanding and diluted net loss per share for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 because the effect of including them would have been antidilutive.

12.COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

In the normal course of business, the Company may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings. While the ultimate results of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty, management does not expect them to have a material adverse effect on the financial position or results of operations of the Company.

 

13.RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

 

Issuance of SAFE Notes

 

During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company entered into a financing arrangement with the sponsor of the SPAC (“SPAC Sponsor”), who is considered a related party. The SPAC Sponsor invested an aggregate of US$500,000 in the Company through the purchase of SAFE Notes. The terms of the SAFE notes purchased by the SPAC Sponsor are similar to those offered to unrelated third-party investors. The accounting policy and valuation methodology applied to the SAFE notes are described in Note 2 & 9 – Simple Agreement for Future Equity (“SAFE”).

 

Due From Related Parties

 

As at December 31, 2025, the Company had S$127,851 of receivables from Horizon Quantum Holdings Pte. Ltd., an entity that is under common control with the Company. The entity is not consolidated in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

14.SEGMENTATION

 

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 chief operating decision maker, or group, in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance.

 

The Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) has been identified as the CEO, 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 there is only one reportable segment.

 

The CODM assesses the performance of and decides how to allocate resources for the one segment based on consolidated net loss. Further, EBITDA (earnings before interest taxes, depreciation and amortization), which is not presented on the face of the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations, is used to assist with the measurement of segment performance and allocate resources. The CODM also uses net loss and adjusted EBITDA, to decide the level of investment in various operating activities and other capital allocation activities.

 

The measure of segment assets is reported on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets as Total Assets.

 

The following table presents the Company’s segment results for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024:

 

   For the Year Ended December 31, 
   2024   2025   2025

15.SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

The Company evaluated subsequent events from December 31, 2025, the date of these financial statements, through the date on which the financial statements were issued (the “Issuance Date”), for events requiring recording or disclosure in the financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2025. The Company concluded that no events have occurred that would require recognition or disclosure in the financial statements, except as described below.

 

In January 2026, the Company entered into Simple Agreement for Future Equity (“SAFE”) notes for US$500,000 (“Purchase Amount”). The Purchase Amount is comprised of (i) a secondary component, equal to 16% of the Purchase Amount (the “Secondary Component”), and a primary component, equal to 84% of the Purchase Amount (the “Primary Component”). The Company may use the Secondary Component to (i) meet the Company’s working capital requirements, and/or (ii) buy back and cancel Shares and/or cancel allocated and vested Options. The Company will use the Primary Component to meet the Company’s working capital requirements, or for any other purpose approved in accordance with the agreement.

 

On March 19, 2026, the Company consummated the previously announced business combination (the “Business Combination”) with dMY Squared Technology Group, Inc. (“dMY”). Upon closing of the Business Combination, the Company will continue as the surviving company and become the primary operating entity under the umbrella of Horizon Quantum Holdings Ltd. (“Holdco”), which will be a publicly traded entity. On March 20, 2026, Holdco’s Class A ordinary shares and warrants commenced trading on Nasdaq under the ticker symbols “HQ” and “HQWWW” respectively. The Closing of the Business Combination provides the group with gross proceeds of approximately US$120 million, consisting of funds held in dMY’s trust account (after redemptions) and proceeds from a concurrent PIPE financing.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of

dMY Squared Technology Group, Inc.:

 

Opinion on the Financial Statements

 

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of dMY Squared Technology Group, Inc. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the related statements of operations, changes in shareholders’ deficit and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

Going Concern

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, if the Company is unable to complete a business combination by March 29, 2026, then the Company will cease all operations except for the purpose of liquidating. The date for mandatory liquidation and liquidity condition and subsequent dissolution raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to this matter are also described in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

Emphasis of a Matter - Restatement of Unaudited Interim Condensed Financial Statements

 

As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the unaudited condensed financial statements for the quarter ended March 31, 2025 were restated to properly reflect excise tax payable and the related adjustment to accumulated deficit.

 

Basis for Opinion

 

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. 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 audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are 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 audits, 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 audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, 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 statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

We have served as the Company’s auditor since 2022.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2025

 

Note 1—Description of Organization and Business Operations

 

dMY Squared Technology Group, Inc. (the “Company” or “dMY”) is a blank check company incorporated in Massachusetts. The Company was formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses (the “Business Combination”). The Company is an emerging growth company and, as such, the Company is subject to all of the risks associated with emerging growth companies.

 

As of December 31, 2025, the Company had not commenced any operations. All activity for the period from February 15, 2022 (inception) through December 31, 2025 relates to the Company’s formation and the initial public offering (the “Initial Public Offering”) as described below, and since the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the search for a prospective initial Business Combination. The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of its initial Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company generates non-operating income in the form of interest income from the proceeds derived from the Initial Public Offering.

 

The Company’s sponsor is dMY Squared Sponsor, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Sponsor”). The registration statement for the Company’s Initial Public Offering was declared effective on September 29, 2022. On October 4, 2022, the Company consummated its Initial Public Offering of 6,000,000 units (the “Units” and, with respect to the Class A common stock included in the Units offered, the “Class A Shares” or the “Public Shares”), at $10.00 per unit, generating gross proceeds of $60.0 million, and incurring offering costs of approximately $3.7 million, of which $2.1 million and approximately $26,000 were for deferred underwriting commissions (see Note 5) and offering costs allocated to derivative warrant liabilities, respectively. On October 7, 2022, the underwriter exercised its over-allotment option in part, and on October 11, 2022, the underwriter purchased 319,000 additional Units (the “Over-Allotment Units”), generating gross proceeds of approximately $3.2 million (the “Partial Over-Allotment”). The underwriter waived the remainder of its over-allotment option. The Company incurred additional offering costs of approximately $156,000 in connection with the Partial Over-Allotment (of which approximately $112,000 was for deferred underwriting fees).

 

Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the private placement (“Private Placement”) of 2,840,000 warrants (the “Initial Private Placement Warrants”), at a price of $1.00 per Initial Private Placement Warrant to the Sponsor, generating proceeds of approximately $2.8 million (see Note 4). On October 11, 2022, simultaneously with the issuance and sale of the Over-Allotment Units, the Company consummated the sale of an additional 44,660 private placement warrants at $1.00 per private placement warrant (the “Additional Private Placement Warrants”, and together with the Initial Private Placement Warrants, the “Private Placement Warrants”), generating additional gross proceeds of approximately $45,000.

 

In addition, concurrently with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Sponsor extended an overfunding loan to the Company in an amount of $900,000 at no interest (the “Initial Overfunding Loan”) to deposit in the Trust Account (as defined below). On October 11, 2022, simultaneously with the sale of the Over-Allotment Units, the Sponsor extended a further overfunding loan to the Company in an aggregate amount of $47,850 (the “Additional Overfunding Loan”, and together with the Initial Overfunding Loan, the “Overfunding Loans”) to deposit in the Trust Account.

DMY SQUARED TECHNOLOGY GROUP, INC.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2025

 

Upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Partial Over-Allotment, the Private Placement and the Overfunding Loans, approximately $64.1 million ($10.15 per Unit) of the net proceeds of the sale of the Units, the Over-Allotment Units, and the Private Placement Warrants and the proceeds from the Overfunding Loans were initially placed in a trust account (the “Trust Account”) with Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company acting as trustee. According to the terms of the Investment Management Trust Agreement, dated October 4, 2022, between the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company (the “Trust Agreement”), the funds held in the Trust Account were initially invested in United States government securities, within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (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 meeting certain conditions of Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act, as determined by the Company, until the earlier of (i) the completion of a Business Combination, (ii) the redemption of Public Shares properly submitted in connection with a shareholder vote to amend the Amended and Restated Articles of Organization (the “Charter”) to modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to redeem 100% of its Public Shares if the Company does not complete the initial Business Combination within the Combination Period (as defined below) or with respect to any other material provisions relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-initial Business Combination activity, and (iii) return of the funds held in the Trust Account to holders of Public Shares (the “Public Shareholders”) as part of the redemption of the Public Shares if the Company does not complete an initial Business Combination during the Combination Period. On September 25, 2024, the Company instructed Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, the trustee with respect to the Trust Account, to transfer its Trust Account out of investment in securities into an interest-bearing bank deposit account in order to mitigate the risk of being deemed an unregistered investment company, and the account was transferred in March 2025.

 

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 Private Placement Warrants, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be applied generally toward consummating a Business Combination. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to complete a Business Combination successfully. The Company must complete one or more initial Business Combinations having an aggregate fair market value of at least 80% of the net assets held in the Trust Account (net of amounts disbursed to management for working capital purposes and excluding the deferred underwriting commissions and taxes payable on the interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account) at the time of the agreement to enter into the initial Business Combination. However, the Company will only complete a Business Combination if the post-transaction company owns or acquires 50% or more of the voting securities of the target or otherwise acquires a controlling interest in the target sufficient for it not to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act.

 

The Company provides Public Shareholders with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares upon the completion of a Business Combination either (i) in connection with a shareholders’ meeting called to approve the Business Combination or (ii) by means of a tender offer. 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, solely in its discretion. The Public Shareholders will be entitled to redeem their Public Shares for a pro rata portion of the amount then held in the Trust Account (initially at $10.15 per Public Share).

 

The per-share amount to be distributed to Public Shareholders who redeem their Public Shares will not be reduced by the deferred underwriting commissions the Company will pay to the underwriter (as discussed in Note 5).

 

These Public Shares are recorded at redemption value and classified as temporary equity upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity” (“ASC 480”). The Company will proceed with a Business Combination if a majority of the shares voted are voted in favor of the Business Combination. The Company’s Charter initially required the Company to not redeem the Public Shares in an amount that would cause its net tangible assets to be less than $5,000,001.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2025

 

In January 2024, the shareholders approved the proposal to amend the Charter and eliminate such Redemption Limitation (as defined below). If a shareholder vote is not required by law and the Company does not decide to hold a shareholder vote for business or other legal reasons, the Company will, pursuant to its Charter, conduct the redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and file tender offer documents with the SEC prior to completing a Business Combination. If, however, shareholder approval of the transaction is required by law, or the Company decides to obtain shareholder approval for business or legal reasons, the Company will offer to redeem shares in conjunction with a proxy solicitation pursuant to the proxy rules and not pursuant to the tender offer rules. Additionally, each Public Shareholder may elect to redeem their Public Shares irrespective of whether they vote for or against the proposed transaction. If the Company seeks shareholder approval in connection with a Business Combination, the initial shareholders agreed to vote their Founder Shares (as defined in Note 4) and any Public Shares purchased during or after the Initial Public Offering in favor of a Business Combination. In addition, the initial shareholders agreed to waive their redemption rights with respect to their Founder Shares and Public Shares in connection with the completion of a Business Combination.

 

The Company’s Charter provides that 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% or more of the Public Shares, without the prior consent of the Company.

 

The Sponsor and the Company’s officers agreed not to propose an amendment to the Charter to modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to redeem 100% of the Public Shares if the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period (as defined below), or with respect to any other material provisions relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-initial Business Combination activity, unless the Company provides the Public Shareholders with the opportunity to redeem their Public Shares in conjunction with any such amendment.

 

The Company’s Charter initially provided 15 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering, or January 4, 2024 (the “Prior Outside Date”), to consummate an initial Business Combination. The Charter also permitted the Company, by resolution of the board of directors, to extend the period of time to consummate a Business Combination twice by an additional 3-month period (for a total of 21 months to complete a Business Combination), subject to the Sponsor depositing into the Trust Account $631,900 in the aggregate for each extension (the “Prior Contributions”). The Sponsor did not intend to deposit such Prior Contributions into the Trust Account. Accordingly, following January 4, 2024, the Company would have been forced to liquidate.

 

On January 2, 2024, the Company held a special meeting of its shareholders to extend the date by which the Company had to consummate its initial business combination (the “First Extension”), from January 4, 2024 to January 29, 2024 and to allow the Company, without another shareholder vote, by resolution of the board of directors, to elect to further extend such date up to twenty-three times for an additional one month each time, until up to December 29, 2025, only if the Sponsor or its designee would deposit (the “Contributions”) into the Trust Account as a loan, (i) on or before January 4, 2024, with respect to the initial extension, an amount of $41,667, and (ii) one business day following the public announcement by us disclosing that the board of directors has determined to implement an additional monthly extension, with respect to each such additional extension, an amount of $50,000. In connection with the shareholder approval of the First Extension, an aggregate of 3,980,414 Public Shares were redeemed for an aggregate of approximately $42.0 million on January 4, 2024 (the “January 2024 Redemption”). The Company’s board of directors elected to use all twenty-three monthly extensions and, accordingly, Mr. You made an aggregate of $1,191,667 of Contributions to the Trust Account.

At the Special Meeting, the Company’s shareholders also approved proposals to (1) amend the Charter to provide for the right of a holder of Class B Shares (as defined below) to convert their Class B Shares into Class A Shares on a one-for-one basis at any time and from time to time at the election of the holder; (2) amend the Charter to eliminate from the Charter (i) the limitation that the Company may not redeem Public Shares in an amount that would cause its net tangible assets to be less than $5,000,001 and (ii) the limitation that the Company shall not consummate a Business Combination unless it has net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001 (collectively, the “Redemption Limitation”); (3) amend the Charter to permit the board of directors, in its sole discretion, to elect to wind up operations on an earlier date than the Extended Date or Additional Extended Date, as applicable, as determined by the board of directors and included in a public announcement (the “Liquidation Amendment”); and (4) amend the Investment Management Trust Agreement between the Company and Continental Stock Transfer and Trust Company to reflect the Extension and the Liquidation Amendment.

 

In connection with the Contribution and advances the Sponsor or its affiliates may make in the future to the Company for working capital expenses, on January 2, 2024, the Company issued a convertible promissory note to Harry L. You, Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer and an affiliate of the Sponsor (the “Payee”), with a principal amount up to $1.75 million (the “Convertible Note”). The Convertible Note bears no interest and is repayable on the earlier of (i) the date on which the Company consummates an initial Business Combination and (ii) the liquidation date. If the Company does not consummate a Business Combination before the end of the Combination Period, the Convertible Note will be repaid only from funds held outside of the Trust Account or will be forfeited, eliminated or otherwise forgiven. Upon the consummation of the initial Business Combination, up to $1,500,000 of the outstanding principal of the Convertible Note may be converted into warrants, at a price of $1.00 per warrant, at the option of the Payee. Since January 2, 2024, the board of directors has elected to extend the liquidation date to December 29, 2025. Accordingly, the Company has drawn down from the Convertible Note and deposited $1,191,667 into the Trust Account in connection with such extensions.

 

On December 15, 2025, dMY’s shareholders approved a further amendment to the Charter to extend the date by which dMY has to consummate its initial business combination (the “Second Extension”), from December 29, 2025 to January 29, 2026 and to allow dMY, without another shareholder vote, by resolution of the board of directors, to elect to further extend such date up to five times for an additional one month each time, until up to June 29, 2026 (such time period, the “Combination Period”). No further Contributions are required in connection with the Second Extension. In connection with the shareholder approval of the Second Extension, an aggregate of 12,599 Public Shares were redeemed for an aggregate of approximately $147,778 (the “December 2025 Redemption”). As of the date of this Annual Report, the board of directors has extended the Combination Period, monthly, through March 29, 2026.

 

If the Company is unable to complete the Business Combination before the end of the Combination Period of March 29, 2026 or as extended to June 29, 2026, 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 subject to lawfully available funds therefor, redeem one hundred percent (100%) of the Offering Shares in consideration of a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (A) the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest not previously released to the Company to pay its taxes (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), by (B) the total number of then outstanding Offering Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish rights of the Public Shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidating distributions, if any), subject to applicable law, and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the remaining shareholders and the board of directors in accordance with applicable law, dissolve and liquidate, subject in each case to the Company’s obligations under the MBCA to provide for claims of creditors and other requirements of applicable law.

If the initial shareholders acquire Public Shares, they will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to such Public Shares if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period. The underwriter agreed to waive its rights to the deferred underwriting commission (see Note 5) held in the Trust Account in the event the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period and, in such event, such amounts will be included with the other funds held in the Trust Account that will be available to fund the redemption of the Public Shares. In the event of such distribution, it is possible that the per share value of the residual assets remaining available for distribution (including Trust Account assets) will be only $10.15. In order to protect the amounts held in the Trust Account, the Sponsor has agreed to be liable to the Company if and to the extent any claims by a third party (except for the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm) for services rendered or products sold to the Company, or a prospective target business with which the Company has entered into a letter of intent, confidentiality or other similar agreement or Business Combination agreement, reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account to below the lesser of (i) $10.15 per Public Share and (ii) 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 $10.15 per Public Share due to reductions in the value of the trust assets, less taxes payable, provided that such liability will not apply to any claims by a third party or prospective target business that executed a waiver of any and all rights to the monies held in the Trust Account (whether or not such waiver is enforceable) nor will it apply to any claims under the Company’s indemnity of the underwriter of the Initial Public Offering against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). 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 (except the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm), 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.

 

Tax Withdrawals from Trust Account

 

In January 2024 and April 2024, the Company withdrew a total of approximately $1.9 million of funds from the Trust Account for purposes of payment of tax liabilities and tax estimates, and such funds were deposited into the Company’s operating account. Funds representing interest earned on the amounts held in the Trust Account are permitted to be withdrawn from the Trust Account for the payment of taxes under the Company’s Charter and the terms of the Trust Agreement. On April 17, 2024, the Company paid approximately $0.89 million for 2023 taxes, leaving approximately $0.97 million remaining to be used for upcoming tax estimates. The Company used approximately $0.69 million of the balance of the withdrawn funds for the payment of general operating expenses. Management determined that the use of funds was not in accordance with the Trust Agreement, and, in March 2025, the Sponsor advanced approximately $0.73 million to the Company representing the amount of such operating expenses plus approximately $0.04 million in respect of interest that would have been earned on the remaining amount of approximately $0.97 million for the period from the original withdrawals to the date of the advance. The Company paid an aggregate of approximately $0.75 million for such tax obligations on March 21, 2025. On March 25, 2025, the Company re-contributed to the Trust Account approximately $0.22 million of the remaining amounts not used for payment of taxes plus approximately $0.04 million in respect of interest that would have been earned had such funds remained in the Trust Account.

 

Excise Tax

 

On August 16, 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (H.R. 5376) (the “IRA”) was signed into federal law. The IR Act provides for, among other things, a new 1% U.S. federal excise tax on certain repurchases (including certain redemptions) of stock by publicly traded domestic (i.e. U.S.) corporations and certain domestic subsidiaries of publicly traded foreign (i.e., non-U.S.) corporations (each, a “Covered Corporation”) occurring on or after January 1, 2023 (the “Excise Tax”). The Excise Tax is imposed on the repurchasing corporation itself, not its shareholders from which shares are repurchased. The amount of the Excise Tax is generally 1% of the fair market value of the shares repurchased at the time of the repurchase. For purposes of calculating the Excise Tax, repurchasing corporations are permitted to net the fair market value of certain new stock issuances against the fair market value of stock repurchases during the same taxable year, subject to certain exceptions.

The U.S. Department of Treasury (the “Treasury”) has been given authority to provide regulations and other guidance to carry out and prevent the abuse or avoidance of the Excise Tax. On June 28, 2024, the Treasury issued final regulations addressing the procedural aspects of the Excise Tax reporting and payment, and on November 24, 2025, the Treasury issued final regulations that provide substantive operating rules and computation for the Excise Tax.

 

Under the final regulations, redemptions of the Public Shares in January 2024 and December 2025 in connection with the First Extension and Second Extension are subject to the Excise Tax. Failure to timely pay the obligation in full would subject the Company to additional interest and penalties. In December 2025, the Company filed its excise tax return related to the January 2024 Redemption and paid an aggregate of approximately $570,000, consisting of approximately $420,000 of Excise Tax in connection with the First Extension and approximately $150,000 of related penalties and interest. The Excise Tax attributable to the January 2024 Redemption was recorded as a charge to accumulated deficit in accordance with ASC 480-10-S99-3A, while the related penalties and interest were recorded within general and administrative expenses in the accompanying statements of operations. As disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, filed with the SEC on April 3, 2025, the applicability of the Excise Tax to such redemptions was uncertain at 2024 year-end due to pending regulatory guidance and other factors. In 2025, based on additional guidance and analysis, management concluded that recognition of the obligation was appropriate.

 

The redemptions in connection with the Second Extension in December 2025 totaled $147,778, which did not exceed the $1 million de minimis threshold. Accordingly, no excise tax expense was incurred for the year ended December 31, 2025.

 

Transfer of Listing

 

Pursuant to NYSE American LLC (the “NYSE American”) Rules Section 119(b), the Company was required to complete its initial Business Combination within 36 months of the effective date of its Initial Public Offering registration statement, which date was September 29, 2025. Because the Company did not complete its initial Business Combination by such date, the trading of the Company’s Class A common stock, Public Warrants, and Units was suspended at the closing of business on September 29, 2025, and the Company’s securities were removed from listing and registration on NYSE American exchange.

 

The Company began trading its Class A common stock and Public Warrants on the OTCQB Market and its Units on the OTCID Market, each operated by The OTC Market Systems (the “OTC Market”), under the symbols “DMYY”, “DMYYW”, and “DMYYU”, respectively, effective at the open of trading on September 30, 2025.

 

Proposed Business Combination with Horizon

 

On September 9, 2025, the Company, Horizon Quantum Holdings Ltd. (formerly known as Rose Holdco Pte. Ltd., Company Registration No. 202537774K), a Singapore public company limited by shares (“Holdco”), Rose Acquisition Pte. Ltd. (Company Registration No. 202537790M), a Singapore private company limited by shares and wholly-owned subsidiary of Holdco (“Merger Sub 1”), Horizon Merger Sub 2, Inc., a Massachusetts corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Holdco (“Merger Sub 2”), and Horizon Quantum Computing Pte. Ltd. (Company Registration No. 201802755E), a Singapore private company limited by shares (“Horizon”), entered into a Business Combination Agreement (the “Business Combination Agreement”). Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, (i) Holdco was converted from a Singapore private company to a Singapore public company and was renamed “Horizon Quantum Holdings Ltd.”, (ii) Horizon and Merger Sub 1 will amalgamate, with Horizon surviving as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Holdco (the “Amalgamation”) and (iii) Merger Sub 2 will merge with and into dMY (the “SPAC Merger”, and together with the Amalgamation and the other transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement, the “Proposed Business Combination”) with dMY surviving as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Holdco. The consummation of the Proposed Business Combination will result in dMY’s and Horizon’s securityholders becoming securityholders of Holdco, which will become a public company.

The Business Combination Agreement and the Proposed Business Combination were unanimously approved by the boards of directors of each of dMY and Horizon. The closing of the Proposed Business Combination is subject to the receipt of the required approvals by dMY’s and Horizon’s shareholders and the satisfaction of other customary closing conditions, including the requirement to meet a minimum cash condition of $45 million plus transaction expenses.

 

In connection with the Proposed Business Combination, concurrently with the execution of the Business Combination Agreement, dMY, the Sponsor, Holdco and Horizon entered into a voting support agreement. Concurrently with the execution of the Business Combination Agreement, dMY and Holdco entered into voting support agreements with Horizon and all shareholders of Horizon.

 

On December 4, 2025, in connection with the Proposed Business Combination, dMY, Holdco, and Horizon entered into Subscription Agreements (the “PIPE Subscription Agreements”), which were subsequently amended on March 9, 2026, with certain institutional and accredited investors, qualified institutional buyers and strategic investors (the “PIPE Investors”). Pursuant to the PIPE Subscription Agreements, as of December 31, 2025, Holdco agreed to issue and sell, and the PIPE Investors agreed to subscribe for and purchase, in a private placement, an aggregate investment of approximately $110.4 million of Holdco Class A Ordinary Shares (the “PIPE Shares”), at a per share price equal to the redemption price (the “PIPE Investment”). Subsequent to December 31, 2025, additional investors entered into subscription agreements increasing the aggregate PIPE commitment to approximately $111.9 million. The PIPE Investors may elect to satisfy their commitments through Class A Shares purchased in the open market or held prior to March 9, 2026. The PIPE Investment is expected to close substantially concurrently with the closing of the Proposed Business Combination, subject to the satisfaction of certain closing conditions set forth in the PIPE Subscription Agreements. The Company has engaged a financial advisor in connection with the proposed Business Combination and related financing transactions. The advisor is entitled to transaction-based compensation contingent upon completion of the Proposed Business Combination.

 

In connection with the PIPE Subscription Agreement, on December 4, 2025, Holdco, dMY, Horizon and IonQ, Inc. (“IonQ”), one of the PIPE Investors, entered into an agreement (the “IonQ Side Letter”), as subsequently amended on March 9, 2026, which provides certain commercial and governance rights commensurate with IonQ’s strategic investment in Horizon, including the right to select one director to serve on the board of directors of Holdco, subject to certain independence and approval requirements, an 18-month lock-up on IonQ’s PIPE Shares, and certain notice and information rights for so long as IonQ maintains specified ownership thresholds.

 

On February 17, 2026, the SEC declared effective the registration statement on Form F-4 (333-292737) filed by Holdco and Horizon in connection with the Proposed Business Combination. On the same day, DMY filed its definitive proxy statement and began mailing the proxy statement to its shareholders of record as of February 6, 2026. A special meeting of dMY’s shareholders was held on March 17, 2026. At the special meeting, dMY shareholders approved the Proposed Business Combination and related matters. If the other closing conditions are satisfied or waived, the Company currently expects the closing to occur in March 2026. However, there can be no assurance that the Proposed Business Combination will be consummated on the currently anticipated timeline, or at all, as the closing remains subject to various conditions, including the level of stockholder redemptions and necessary regulatory approvals.

 

Other than as specifically discussed, this Annual Report does not assume the closing of the Proposed Business Combination or the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement.

Going Concern Consideration

 

As of December 31, 2025, the Company had minimal cash and working capital deficit of approximately $8.2 million. Further, the Company has incurred and expected to continue to incur significant costs in pursuit of its acquisition plans.

 

Prior to the consummation of the Initial Public Offering, the Company’s liquidity needs were satisfied through the payment of $25,000 from the Sponsor to purchase Founder Shares (as defined in Note 4) and a loan under the Note (as defined in Note 4) in the amount of approximately $145,000. The Company fully repaid the Note balance on October 4, 2022. The Note was no longer available to the Company after the closing of its Initial Public Offering. Subsequent to the closing of the Initial Public Offering and the Partial Over-Allotment, the Company’s liquidity needs have been satisfied through the net proceeds from the consummation of the Initial Public Offering and the Private Placement held outside of the Trust Account and advances from related parties (approximately $2.3 million in advances outstanding as of December 31, 2025).

 

In addition, in order to provide the Contribution and to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Company issued the Convertible Note to the Payee with a principal amount up to $1.75 million on January 2, 2024 as discussed above. As of December 31, 2025, the Company had an outstanding amount of $1,191,667 under the Convertible Note. All proceeds received under the Convertible Note were contributed into the Trust Account.

 

In connection with the management’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 205-40, “Presentation of Financial Statements—Going Concern,” the Company’s management has determined that the Company’s liquidity condition, mandatory liquidation should a Business Combination not occur, and potential subsequent dissolution raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern through the earlier of the liquidation date of March 29, 2026 or the completion of the initial Business Combination. There is no assurance that the Company’s plans to consummate the Proposed Business Combination with Horizon or any other Business Combination will be successful or successful within the Combination Period. The financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

Risks and Uncertainties

 

Global economic conditions remain subject to significant uncertainty and volatility resulting from a combination of changes in laws or regulations, downturns in the financial markets or in economic conditions, inflation, fluctuations in interest rates, increases in tariffs, supply chain disruptions, declines in consumer confidence and spending, public health considerations. Ongoing and escalating military conflicts, including the conflict between Russia and Ukraine and conflicts in the Middle East, as well as the risk of further escalation or expansion of such conflicts, have contributed to heightened geopolitical instability and increased uncertainty in global markets.

 

These conditions have adversely affected, and may continue to adversely affect, global economic activity through, among other things, disruptions to energy and commodity markets, volatility in foreign exchange and capital markets, supply chain dislocations, increased cybersecurity risks, and reduced cross-border trade and investment. In addition, elevated interest rates, inflationary pressures, tightening credit conditions, and concerns regarding sovereign debt and fiscal stability in various jurisdictions have contributed to increased volatility and reduced liquidity in global financial markets.

 

The extent and duration of these conditions remain uncertain, and the ultimate impact on the global economy, financial markets, and business confidence cannot be predicted. Continued or worsening geopolitical tensions, adverse macroeconomic developments, or additional policy or regulatory responses 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.

Note 2—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC.

 

Emerging Growth Company

 

The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (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 an emerging growth 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 statements with another public company that is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company that has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.

 

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 no cash equivalents as of December 31, 2025 and 2024.

 

Concentration of Credit Risk

 

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash accounts in a financial institution, which regularly 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.

Cash and Investments Held in Trust Account

 

The Company’s portfolio of investments was comprised of 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 investments in money market funds that invest in U.S. government securities and generally have a readily determinable fair value, or a combination thereof. When the Company’s investments held in the Trust Account are comprised of U.S. government securities, the investments are classified as trading securities. When the Company’s investments held in the Trust Account are comprised of money market funds, the investments are recognized at fair value. Trading securities and investments in money market funds are presented on the balance sheets at fair value at the end of each reporting period. Gains and losses resulting from the change in fair value of these securities are included in interest income from investments held in Trust Account in the accompanying statements of operations. The estimated fair values of investments held in the Trust Account are determined using available market information. On September 25, 2024, the Company instructed Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, the trustee with respect to the Trust Account, to transfer its Trust Account out of investment in securities into an interest-bearing bank deposit account in order to mitigate the risk of being deemed an unregistered investment company, and the account was transferred in March 2025. As of December 31, 2025, the trust balance was held in cash. As of December 31, 2024 the trust balance was held in US Treasury Bills.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities other than for the Overfunding Loan to the Sponsor, which qualify as financial instruments under FASB ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurement,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the balance sheets, either because of the short-term nature of the instruments or because the instrument is recognized at fair value.

 

Fair Value Measurements

 

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received for sale of an asset or paid for transfer of a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. GAAP establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). These tiers include:

 

Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical instruments in active markets;

 

Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable such as quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and

 

Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions, such as valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.

 

In some circumstances, the inputs used to measure fair value might be categorized within different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In those instances, the fair value measurement is categorized in its entirety in the fair value hierarchy based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

Warrant Liabilities

 

The warrants issued in connection with the Initial Public Offering (the “Public Warrants”) and the Private Placement Warrants were recognized as derivative liabilities in accordance with ASC 815. Accordingly, the Company recognized the warrant instruments as liabilities at fair value and will adjust the instruments to fair value at each reporting period. The liabilities are subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet date until exercised, and any change in fair value will be recognized in the statements of operations. The fair value of the Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants were initially measured at fair value using the Black-Scholes model and the Monte Carlo simulation model, respectively. Beginning in December 2022, the fair value of Public Warrants has been measured based on the listed market price of such Public Warrants. The estimated fair value of the Private Placement Warrants was subsequently determined using the Monte Carlo simulation method with Level 3 inputs. The determination of the fair value of the derivative warrant liabilities may be subject to change as more current information becomes available and accordingly the actual results could differ significantly (see Note 8).

 

Convertible Note Payable – Related Parties

 

The option to convert the Convertible Note issued to the Payee on January 2, 2024 (see Note 4) into warrants qualifies as an embedded derivative under ASC 815 and is required to be recognized at fair value, with subsequent changes in fair value recognized in the Company’s statements of operations each reporting period until the Convertible Note is repaid or converted. As of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the fair value of the embedded conversion option had a de minimis value.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with 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 statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.

 

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 statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. One of the more significant accounting estimates included in these financial statements is the determination of the fair value of the derivative warrant liabilities. Such estimates may be subject to change as more current information becomes available and accordingly the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.

 

Offering Costs Associated with the Initial Public Offering

 

Offering costs consisted of legal, accounting, underwriting fees and other costs incurred that were directly related to the Initial Public Offering. Upon completion of the Initial Public Offering, offering costs were allocated to the separable financial instruments issued in the Initial Public Offering based on a relative fair value basis, compared to total proceeds received. Offering costs allocated to the derivative warrant liabilities were charged to operations. Offering costs associated with the Class A Shares were charged against the carrying value of Class A Shares upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering.

 

Public Shares Subject to Possible Redemption

 

As discussed in Note 1, all of the Public Shares sold as part of the Units in the Initial Public Offering contain a redemption feature. In accordance with ASC 480, redemption provisions not solely within the control of the Company require the securities to be classified outside of permanent equity. Ordinary liquidation events, which involve the redemption and liquidation of all of the entity’s equity instruments, are excluded from the provisions of ASC 480. Therefore, the carrying value of all Public Shares has been classified outside of permanent equity. Immediately upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company recognized the accretion from initial book value to redemption amount value. The change in the carrying value of redeemable Public Shares resulted in charges against additional paid-in capital (to the extent available) and accumulated deficit.

Net Loss per Common Share

 

The Company complies with accounting and disclosure requirements of FASB ASC Topic 260, “Earnings Per Share.” The Company has two classes of shares, which are referred to as Class A Shares and Class B Shares (or Public Shares and Founder Shares (as defined in Note 4)). Income and losses are shared pro rata between the two classes of shares. Net loss per share of common stock is calculated by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of common stock outstanding for the respective period. The Company has not considered the effect of the Public Warrants and the Private Placement Warrants to purchase an aggregate of 6,044,160 shares in the calculation of diluted loss per share, since the exercise of the warrants is contingent upon the occurrence of future events and the inclusion of such warrants would be anti-dilutive. Accretion associated with the redeemable Public Shares is excluded from earnings per share as the redemption value approximates fair value.

 

The following table presents a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator used to compute basic and diluted net loss per share of common stock for each class of common stock for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024:

Income Taxes

 

The Company follows the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes under FASB ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes” (“ASC 740”). Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement 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. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company had gross deferred tax assets of approximately $2.1 million and approximately $949,000, respectively, which were presented net of a full valuation allowance.

 

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. There were no unrecognized tax benefits as of December 31, 2025 and 2024. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. No amounts were accrued for the payment of interest and penalties as of December 31, 2025 and 2024. 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 has been subject to income tax examinations by major taxing authorities since inception.

 

The Company’s management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards updates, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09 (Topic 740), “Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures”. The ASU requires disaggregated information about a reporting entity’s effective tax rate reconciliation as well as an expansion of other income tax disclosures. The ASU is effective on a prospective basis for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company adopted ASU 2023-09 in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 2025.

 

Issued in November 2024, ASU 2024-03, “Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses” (Subtopic 220-40), requires the disaggregated disclosure of specific expense categories, including purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, and amortization, within relevant income statement captions. This ASU also requires disclosure of the total amount of selling expenses along with the definition of selling expenses. The ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. Adoption of this ASU can either be applied prospectively to consolidated financial statements issued for reporting periods after the effective date of this ASU or retrospectively to any or all prior periods presented in the consolidated financial statements. While early adoption is permitted, the Company does not plan to adopt this standard early. This ASU will likely result in additional disclosures being included in the Company’s financial statements once adopted. The Company is currently evaluating the provisions of this ASU.

Note 3—Initial Public Offering

 

On October 4, 2022, the Company consummated its Initial Public Offering of 6,000,000 Units at a price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $60.0 million, and incurring offering costs of approximately $3.7 million, of which $2.1 million and approximately $26,000 was for deferred underwriting commissions and offering costs allocated to derivative warrant liabilities, respectively. The Company granted the underwriter in the Initial Public Offering a 45-day option to purchase up to 900,000 additional Units, at $10.00 per Unit, to cover over-allotments. On October 7, 2022, the underwriter exercised its over-allotment option in part, and on October 11, 2022, the underwriter purchased 319,000 additional Units, generating gross proceeds of approximately $3.2 million. The underwriter waived the remainder of its over-allotment option. The Company incurred additional offering costs of approximately $156,000 in connection with the Partial Over-Allotment (of which approximately $112,000 was for deferred underwriting fees). Each Unit consists of one Public Share and one-half of one Public Warrant. Each whole Public Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one Public Share at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment (see Note 6).

 

Note 4—Related Party Transactions

 

Founder Shares

 

On March 16, 2022, the Sponsor purchased 2,875,000 shares of the Company’s Class B common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Founder Shares” or the “Class B Shares”), for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000, pursuant to a securities subscription agreement dated March 3, 2022 by and between the Company and the Sponsor (as amended by a subscriber forfeiture and amendment No. 1 to the securities subscription agreement dated September 8, 2022 and a subscriber forfeiture and amendment No. 2 to the securities subscription agreement dated September 29, 2022). On September 8, 2022 and September 29, 2022, the Sponsor surrendered to the Company 718,750 and 431,250 Founder Shares, respectively, in each case for no consideration, resulting in the Sponsor owning 1,725,000 Founder Shares. The initial shareholders agreed to forfeit up to 225,000 Founder Shares to the extent that the over-allotment option was not exercised in full by the underwriter, so that the Founder Shares would represent 20% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares after the Initial Public Offering. The underwriter partially exercised its over-allotment option on October 11, 2022 and waived the remainder of its over-allotment option. Accordingly, the Sponsor forfeited 145,250 Founder Shares on October 11, 2022.

 

The initial shareholders agreed, subject to limited exceptions, not to transfer, assign or sell any of the Founder Shares until the earlier to occur of (A) one year after the completion of the initial Business Combination or earlier if, subsequent to the initial Business Combination, the closing price of the Class A Shares equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock capitalizations, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after the initial Business Combination, and (B) the date following the completion of the initial Business Combination on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, capital stock exchange or other similar transaction that results in all of the shareholders having the right to exchange their Class A Shares for cash, securities or other property. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Founder Shares will be released from the lockup if the closing price of the Company’s Class A Shares equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock capitalizations, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after the initial Business Combination.

 

Private Placement Warrants

 

Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the Private Placement of 2,840,000 Initial Private Placement Warrants, at a price of $1.00 per Initial Private Placement Warrant, generating proceeds of approximately $2.8 million. On October 11, 2022, simultaneously with the issuance and sale of the Over-Allotment Units, the Company consummated the sale of 44,660 Additional Private Placement Warrants at $1.00 per Additional Private Placement Warrant, generating additional gross proceeds of approximately $45,000.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2025

 

Each Private Placement Warrant is exercisable for one Class A Share at a price of $11.50 per share. A portion of the proceeds from the sale of the Private Placement Warrants to the Sponsor was added to the proceeds from the Initial Public Offering held in the Trust Account. If the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, there will be no redemption rights or liquidating distributions with respect to the Private Placement Warrants. Except as set forth below, the Private Placement Warrants will be non-redeemable for cash and exercisable on a cashless basis so long as they are held by the Sponsor or their permitted transferees.

 

The Sponsor and the Company’s officers and directors agreed, subject to limited exceptions, not to transfer, assign or sell any of their Private Placement Warrants until 30 days after the completion of the initial Business Combination.

 

Related Party Loans

 

Promissory Note and Advances from Related Parties

 

On March 3, 2022, the Sponsor agreed to loan the Company an aggregate amount of up to $200,000 to cover expenses related to the Initial Public Offering pursuant to a promissory note (the “Note”). This loan was non-interest bearing and payable on the date on which the Company consummated the Initial Public Offering. The Company borrowed approximately $145,000 under the Note and subsequently fully repaid the Note balance on October 4, 2022. The Note was no longer available to the Company after the closing of its Initial Public Offering.

 

The Company’s Sponsor and its affiliates have paid for certain expenses on behalf of the Company. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company had an outstanding advances balance from such parties of approximately $2.3 million and $390,000, respectively. Subsequent to December 31, 2025, the Sponsor paid an aggregate of $165,000 for additional expenses on behalf of the Company, increasing the outstanding balance owed to Sponsor to approximately $2.6 million.

 

Overfunding Loans

 

Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Sponsor extended the Overfunding Loan to the Company in an aggregate amount of $900,000. On October 11, 2022, simultaneously with the sale of the Over-Allotment Units, the Sponsor extended the Additional Overfunding Loan to the Company in an amount of $47,850, for an aggregate outstanding principal amount of $947,850 to be deposited in the Trust Account. Upon the closing of the initial Business Combination, the Overfunding Loans will be repaid or converted into Class A Shares at a conversion price of $10.00 per share (or a combination of both), at the Sponsor’s discretion. If the Company does not complete an initial Business Combination, it will not repay the Overfunding Loans from amounts held in the Trust Account, and its proceeds will be distributed to the Public Shareholders; however, the Company may repay the Overfunding Loans if there are funds available outside the Trust Account to do so.

 

Convertible Promissory Note

 

In connection with the Contribution and advances the Sponsor may make in the future to the Company for working capital expenses, on January 2, 2024, the Company issued a Convertible Note to Harry L. You, Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer and an affiliate of the Sponsor with a principal amount up to $1.75 million. The Convertible Note bears no interest and is repayable in full upon the earlier of (a) the date of the consummation of the Company’s initial Business Combination, or (b) the date of the Company’s liquidation. If the Company does not consummate an initial Business Combination by the end of the Combination Period, the Convertible Note will be repaid only from funds held outside of the Trust Account or will be forfeited, eliminated or otherwise forgiven. Upon the consummation of the Company’s initial Business Combination, up to $1,500,000 of the outstanding principal of the Convertible Note may be converted into warrants, at a price of $1.00 per warrant, at the option of the Payee. Such warrants will have terms identical to the Private Placement Warrants.

DECEMBER 31, 2025

 

As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company had an outstanding amount of $1,191,667 and $641,667 under the Convertible Note, respectively. All proceeds received under the Convertible Note were contributed into the Trust Account.

 

The option to convert the Convertible Note into warrants qualifies as an embedded derivative under FASB ASC 815 and is required to be recognized at fair value with subsequent changes in fair value recognized in the Company’s statements of operations each reporting period until the Convertible Note is repaid or converted. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the fair value of the embedded conversion option had a de minimis value.

 

Administrative Services Agreement

 

On October 4, 2022, the Company entered into an agreement pursuant to which it agreed to pay the Sponsor $10,000 per month for office space, administrative and support services. Upon completion of a Business Combination or its liquidation, the Company will cease paying these monthly fees. The Company recorded $120,000 in connection with such fees during each of the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 in the accompanying statements of operations. The Company recorded an outstanding balance of $310,000 and $190,000 as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, in connection with such fees in accrued expenses in the accompanying balance sheets.

 

The Sponsor, executive officers and directors, or any of their respective affiliates will be reimbursed for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with activities on the Company’s behalf such as identifying potential target businesses and performing due diligence on suitable Business Combinations. The Company’s audit committee will review on a quarterly basis all payments that were made to the Sponsor, executive officers or directors, or the Company’s or their affiliates.

 

Note 5—Commitments and Contingencies

 

Registration Rights

 

The holders of Founder Shares, Private Placement Warrants and warrants that may be issued upon conversion of working capital loans and the Contributions (and any shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of the Private Placement Warrants or warrants issued upon conversion of the working capital loans and the Contributions and upon conversion of the Founder Shares and the Overfunding Loans), will be entitled to registration rights pursuant to a registration and shareholder rights agreement signed upon the consummation of the Initial Public Offering. These holders will be entitled to certain demand and “piggyback” registration rights. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.

 

Underwriting Agreement

 

The underwriter was entitled to an underwriting discount of $0.14 per Unit, or approximately $0.8 million in the aggregate, paid upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering. An additional fee of $0.35 per Unit, or $2.1 million in the aggregate will be payable to the underwriter for deferred underwriting commissions. The deferred fee will become payable to the underwriter from the amounts held in the Trust Account solely in the event that the Company completes a Business Combination, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement.

 

The underwriter was entitled to an additional fee of approximately $45,000, which was paid upon closing of the Partial Over-Allotment, and approximately $112,000 in deferred underwriting commissions in connection with the consummation of the Partial Over-Allotment.

Advisory Arrangement

 

On August 14, 2025, in connection with the proposed Business Combination with Horizon, the Company entered into an engagement arrangement with an advisory firm to assist with investor outreach and capital markets activities related to the proposed transaction, including the PIPE financing as described in Note 1. The agreement provides that the advisor will be entitled to (i) a transaction fee of $4.0 million payable upon the closing of the Business Combination if the minimum cash condition is met, or, if such conditions are not satisfied, an incentive bonus of up to $4.0 million at the Company’s discretion, and (ii) placement agent fees in connection with any private placement equal to (a) 5.0% of the gross proceeds from investors introduced by the advisor and (b) 3.0% of the gross proceeds from other investors participating in the private placement, in each case payable upon the closing of such private placement.

 

Note 6—Derivative Warrant Liabilities

 

As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company had an aggregate of 6,044,154 warrants outstanding, comprised of 3,159,500 Public Warrants and 2,884,660 Private Placement Warrants. Public Warrants may only be exercised for a whole number of shares. No fractional Public Warrants will be issued upon separation of the Units and only whole Public Warrants will trade. The Public Warrants will become exercisable on the later of (a) 30 days after the completion of a Business Combination or (b) 12 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering; provided in each case that the Company has an effective registration statement under the Securities Act covering the Class A Shares issuable upon exercise of the Public Warrants and a current prospectus relating to them is available (or the Company permits holders to exercise their Public Warrants on a cashless basis and such cashless exercise is exempt from registration under the Securities Act). The Company agreed that as soon as practicable, but in no event later than 15 business days after the closing of the initial Business Combination, the Company will use its best efforts to file with the SEC and have an effective registration statement covering the Class A Shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants and to maintain a current prospectus relating to those Class A Shares until the warrants expire or are redeemed. If a registration statement covering the Class A Shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants is not effective by the 60th business day after the closing of the initial Business Combination, warrant holders may, until such time as there is an effective registration statement and during any period when the Company will have failed to maintain an effective registration statement, exercise warrants on a “cashless basis” in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act or another exemption. Notwithstanding the above, if the Company’s Class A Shares are at the time of any exercise of a warrant not listed on a national securities exchange such that they satisfy the definition of a “covered security” under Section 18(b)(1) of the Securities Act, the Company may, at its option, require holders of Public Warrants who exercise their warrants to do so on a “cashless basis” in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act and, in the event the Company so elect, it will not be required to file or maintain in effect a registration statement, and in the event the Company does not so elect, it will use its best efforts to register or qualify the shares under applicable blue sky laws to the extent an exemption is not available.

 

The warrants have an exercise price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment, and will expire five years after the completion of a Business Combination or earlier upon redemption or liquidation. In addition, if (x) the Company issues additional Class A Shares or equity-linked securities for capital raising purposes in connection with the closing of the initial Business Combination at an issue price or effective issue price of less than $9.20 per share of Class A Shares (with such issue price or effective issue price to be determined in good faith by the board of directors and, in the case of any such issuance to the Sponsor or its affiliates, without taking into account any Founder Shares held by the Sponsor or such affiliates, as applicable, prior to such issuance) (the “Newly Issued Price”), (y) the aggregate gross proceeds from such issuances represent more than 60% of the total equity proceeds, and interest thereon, available for the funding of the initial Business Combination on the date of the consummation of the initial Business Combination (net of redemptions), and (z) the volume weighted average trading price of Class A Shares during the 20 trading day period starting on the trading day prior to the day on which the Company consummates its initial Business Combination (such price, the “Market Value”) is below $9.20 per share, the exercise price of the warrants will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 115% of the higher of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price, the $18.00 per share redemption trigger price will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 180% of the higher of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price, and the $10.00 per share redemption trigger price will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to the higher of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price.

The Private Placement Warrants are identical to the Public Warrants, except that the Private Placement Warrants and the Class A Shares issuable upon exercise of the Private Placement Warrants will not be transferable, assignable or salable until the completion of a Business Combination, subject to certain limited exceptions. Additionally, except as set forth below, the Private Placement Warrants will be non-redeemable so long as they are held by the Sponsor or their permitted transferees. If the Private Placement Warrants are held by someone other than the Sponsor or their permitted transferees, the Private Placement Warrants will be redeemable by the Company and exercisable by such holders on the same basis as the Public Warrants.

 

Redemption of Public Warrants when the price per Public Share equals or exceeds $18.00. Once the Public Warrants become exercisable, the Company may redeem the outstanding Public Warrants for cash:

 

  in whole and not in part;

 

  at a price of $0.01 per Public Warrant;

 

  upon a minimum of 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption, referred to as the 30-day redemption period; and

 

  if, and only if, the closing price of the Public Shares equals or exceeds $18.00 per share (as adjusted) for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which the Company sends the notice of redemption to the warrant holders.

 

Redemption of Public Warrants when the price per share of Public Shares equals or exceeds $10.00. Once the Public Warrants become exercisable, the Company may redeem the outstanding Public Warrants:

 

  in whole and not in part;

 

  at $0.10 per Public Warrant upon a minimum of 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption provided that holders will be able to exercise their Public Warrants on a cashless basis prior to redemption and receive that number of shares determined by reference to an agreed table based on the redemption date and the “fair market value” of Public Shares; and

 

  if, and only if, the closing price of Public Shares equals or exceeds $10.00 per Public Share (as adjusted) for any 20 trading days within the 30-trading day period ending three trading days before the Company sends notice of redemption to the warrant holders.

 

The “fair market value” of Public Shares shall mean the volume weighted average price of Public Shares during the 10 trading days immediately following the date on which the notice of redemption is sent to the holders of warrants. In no event will the Public Warrants be exercisable in connection with this redemption feature for more than 0.361 Public Shares per Public Warrant (subject to adjustment).

 

If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination and the Company liquidates the funds held in the Trust Account, holders of warrants will not receive any of such funds with respect to their warrants, nor will they receive any distribution from the Company’s assets held outside of the Trust Account with the respect to such warrants.

 

Note 7—Shareholders’ Deficit

 

Preferred Stock—The Company is authorized to issue 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share, with such designations, voting and other rights and preferences as may be determined from time to time by the Company’s board of directors. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, there were no shares of preferred stock issued or outstanding.

As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, there were 2,742,253 (including 2,325,987 redeemable and 416,266 non-redeemable) and 2,338,586 Class A Shares issued and outstanding, respectively. Redeemable Class A shares are subject to possible redemption in connection with the Company’s initial Business Combination or liquidation and are classified outside of permanent equity on the accompanying balance sheets, while non-redeemable Class A shares are classified within permanent equity.

 

Class B Common Stock—The Company is authorized to issue 5,000,000 Class B Shares with a par value of $0.0001 per share. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, there were 1,163,484 and 1,579,750 Class B Shares issued and outstanding, respectively.

 

Common shareholders of record are entitled to one vote for each share held on all matters to be voted on by shareholders. Holders of Class B Shares will have the right to elect all of the Company’s directors prior to the consummation of the initial Business Combination. On any other matter submitted to a vote of the Company’s shareholders, holders of Class B Shares and holders of Class A Shares will vote together as a single class, except as required by applicable law or stock exchange rule.

 

The Company’s Charter, as amended in connection with the Special Meeting held on January 2, 2024, provides for the right of a holder of Class B Shares to convert their Class B Shares into Class A Shares, at any time and from time to time at the election of the holder, on a one-for-one basis, subject to adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like, and subject to further adjustment as provided herein. In the case that additional Class A Shares or equity-linked securities are issued or deemed issued in connection with the initial Business Combination, the number of Class A Shares issuable upon conversion of all Class B Shares will equal, in the aggregate, on an as-converted basis, 20% of the total number of Class A Shares outstanding after such conversion (after giving effect to any redemptions of shares of Public Shares by Public Shareholders), including the total number of Class A Shares issued, or deemed issued or issuable upon conversion or exercise of any equity-linked securities or rights issued or deemed issued, by the Company in connection with or in relation to the consummation of the initial Business Combination, excluding any Class A Shares or equity-linked securities or rights exercisable for or convertible into Class A Shares issued, or to be issued, to any seller in the initial Business Combination and any Private Placement Warrants issued to the Sponsor, officers or directors upon conversion of working capital loans and Contributions and any Class A Shares issued to the Sponsor upon conversion of the Overfunding Loans. In no event will the conversion of Class B Shares occur on a less than one-for-one basis.

 

On September 15, 2025, the Sponsor distributed 416,266 Founder Shares to one of its members, pro rata, for no consideration. Such shares were then converted on a one-for-one basis into Class A Shares and donated to charity. As a result, as of the date of this Annual Report, the Sponsor owns an aggregate of 1,163,484 Founder Shares in the form of Class B Shares and other holders of Founder Shares hold an aggregate of 416,266 Founder Shares in the form of Class A Shares.

(1)The cash balance within the Trust Account was $617 as of December 31, 2024.

 

Transfers to/from Levels 1, 2, and 3 are recognized at the beginning of the reporting period. The estimated fair value of the Public Warrants transferred from a Level 3 measurement to a Level 1 fair value measurement in December 2022 when the Public Warrants were separately listed and traded. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the fair value measurement for Public Warrants was transferred to Level 2 measurement due to low trading volume. Level 1 assets include investments in money market funds or U.S. Treasury securities. The Company uses inputs such as actual trade data, benchmark yields, quoted market prices from dealers or brokers, and other similar sources to determine the fair value of its investments.

 

The fair value of the Public Warrants and the Private Placement Warrants was initially measured using Black-Scholes option pricing model and Monte Carlo simulation method, respectively. Beginning in December 2022, the fair value of Public Warrants has been measured based on the listed market price of such Public Warrants. The estimated fair value of the Private Placement Warrants was determined using a Monte Carlo simulation method with Level 3 inputs as of December 31, 2025 and 2024. Inherent in a Black-Scholes option pricing model and a Monte Carlo simulation method are assumptions related to expected stock-price volatility, expected life, risk-free interest rate and dividend yield. The Company estimates the volatility of its warrants based on implied volatility from the historical volatility of select peer company’s common stock that matches the expected remaining life of the warrants. 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 warrants. The expected life of the warrants is assumed to be equivalent to their remaining contractual term. The dividend rate is based on the historical rate, which the Company anticipates remaining at zero.

Note 9—Segment Information

 

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 for which separate financial information is available that is regularly evaluated by the Company’s chief operating decision maker, or group, in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance. The Company’s Chief Financial Officer has been identified as the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), who reviews the operating results 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.

 

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 statements of operations as net income or loss. The measure of segment assets is reported on the balance sheets as total assets. When evaluating the Company’s performance and making key decisions regarding resource allocation the CODM reviews several key metrics, which include the following:

 

   For the years ended
December 31,
 
   2025   2024 
Investment income from cash and investments held in Trust Account  $1,065,740   $1,294,140 
General and administrative expenses   (4,461,667)   (1,088,400)
Tax expenses   (162,656)   (481,621)
Other (expenses) income   (14,264,123)   441 
Net loss  $(17,822,706)  $(819,410)

 

The CODM reviews investment income from cash and investments in Trust Account to measure and monitor shareholders value and determine the most effective strategy of investment with the Trust Account funds while maintaining compliance with the trust agreement. General and administrative expenses 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 business 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. General and administrative costs, as reported on the statement of operations, are the significant segment expenses provided to the CODM on a regular basis. All other segment items included in net income or loss are reported on the statement of operations and described within their respective disclosures.

Note 10—Income Taxes

 

The income tax provision consists of the following:

Current        
Federal  $223,826   $261,958

Adjustment for prior year tax estimate   (49,376)   39,807 
Income tax provision, net  $261,147   $434,457 

 

The Company’s net deferred tax assets are as follows:

 

   December 31,
2025
   December 31,
2024
 
Deferred tax assets:        
Start-up/organization costs  $12,928,719   $949,417 
Merger costs   827,591    - 
Net operating loss carryforwards   -    - 
Total deferred tax assets   2,120,462    949,417 
Valuation allowance   (2,120,462)   (949,417)
Deferred tax asset, net of allowance  $-   $- 

 

In assessing the realization of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which temporary differences representing net future deductible amounts become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax assets, projected future taxable income and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. After consideration of all of the information available, management believes that significant uncertainty exists with respect to future realization of the deferred tax assets and has therefore established a full valuation allowance. For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the valuation allowances were approximately $2.1 million and $949,000, respectively. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company has no U.S. federal net operating loss carryforwards and no state net operating loss carryovers available to offset future taxable income.
