Overview

We are a blank check company incorporated as a Delaware corporation and 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 "Initial Business Combination"). We intend to effectuate our Initial Business Combination using cash from the proceeds of our initial public offering (the "Initial Public Offering"), our capital stock, debt or a combination of cash, stock and debt.

As of the date of this filing, we had not commenced core operations. All activity for the period from March 1, 2021 (inception) through June 30, 2026, related to our formation, raising funds through our Initial Public Offering, identifying a target company for an Initial Business Combination and working to consummate our Initial Business Combination. We will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of the Initial Business Combination, at the earliest. We generate non-operating income in the form of interest on cash and cash equivalents held in the Trust Account, and prior to the liquidation of the money market funds held in the Trust Account in January 2025, we generated dividend income on such money market funds.

The stock exchange listing rules provide that the Initial Business Combination must be with one or more target businesses that together have a fair market value equal to at least 80% of the value of the assets held in a trust account (the "Trust Account") in the United States maintained by Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company ("Continental"), as trustee (excluding the deferred underwriting commissions and taxes payable), at the time of the our signing a definitive agreement in connection with the Initial Business Combination. We will only complete an Initial Business Combination if the post-Initial Business Combination company owns or acquires 50% or more of the outstanding voting securities of the target company or otherwise acquires a controlling interest in the target company sufficient for it not to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "Investment Company Act"). There is no assurance that we will be able to successfully effect an Initial Business Combination.

The Company initially had 15 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering on September 17, 2021 to consummate the Initial Business Combination. On November 30, 2022, the Company held a special meeting of stockholders, at which the stockholders approved an amendment (the "November 2022 Extension Amendment") to the Company's amended and restated certificate of incorporation (as amended, the "Certificate of Incorporation") to extend the date (the "Termination Date") by which the Company must consummate an Initial Business Combination from December 17, 2022 (the "Original Termination Date") to January 17, 2023, and to allow the Company, without another stockholder vote, to elect to extend the Termination Date on a monthly basis for up to five times by an additional one month each time after January 17, 2023, by resolution of the Company's board of directors, if requested by its Sponsor, and upon five days' advance notice prior to the applicable Termination Date, until June 17, 2023, or a total of up to six months after the Original Termination Date, unless the closing of the Initial Business Combination shall have occurred prior thereto, subject to the deposit by the Sponsor or its affiliates or designees, upon five days' advance notice prior to the applicable deadline, of $125,000, on or prior to the date of the applicable deadline, for each one-month extension. Any such payments would be made in the form of a non-interest-bearing loan and would be repaid, if at all, from funds released to us upon completion of our Initial Business Combination.

In connection with the vote to approve the November 2022 Extension Amendment, the holders of 9,606,887 Public Shares properly exercised their right to redeem their shares (and did not withdraw their redemption) for cash at a redemption price of approximately $10.20 per share, for an aggregate redemption amount of approximately $98.0 million.

Following the approval of the November 2022 Extension Amendment, on December 5, 2022, the Company issued an unsecured promissory note in the principal amount of $750,000 (the "First Extension Note") to the Sponsor, pursuant to which the Sponsor agreed to loan to the Company up to $750,000 in connection with the extension of the Termination Date. Per the terms of the First Extension Note, funds available under such note are not restricted for use for extension payments. The First Extension Note does not bear interest and matures upon the earlier of (a) the closing of an Initial Business Combination and (b) the Company's liquidation. In the event that the Company does not consummate an Initial Business Combination, the First Extension Note will be repaid only from amounts remaining outside of the Trust Account, if any. Upon the consummation of an Initial Business Combination, the Sponsor may elect to convert any portion or all of the amount outstanding under the First Extension Note into private warrants to purchase shares of the Company's Common Stock at a conversion price of $0.50 per private warrant. Such private warrants will be identical to the Private Placement Warrants issued to the Sponsor at the time of the Initial Public Offering.

On June 12, 2023, the Company held a second special meeting of stockholders (the "June 2023 Extension Meeting"), at which the stockholders approved, among other things, (i) an amendment (the "June 2023 Extension Amendment") to the Company's Certificate of Incorporation to extend the Termination Date from June 17, 2023 to July 17, 2023, and to allow the Company, without another stockholder vote, to elect to extend the Termination Date on a monthly basis for up to five times by an additional one month (or such shorter period as may be requested by the Sponsor) after July 17, 2023, by resolution of the Company's board of directors, if requested by the Sponsor, and upon five days' advance notice prior to the applicable Termination Date, until December 17, 2023, or a total of up to six months after June 17, 2023, unless the closing of the Company's Initial Business Combination shall have occurred prior thereto, and (ii) an amendment (the "Redemption Limitation Amendment") to eliminate from the Certificate of Incorporation the limitation that the Company may not consummate any business combination unless it has net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001 upon consummation of such business combination.

Nasdaq Delisting

As previously disclosed, on September 17, 2024, we received a written notice (the "Notice") from the staff of the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC ("Nasdaq") indicating that we had failed to comply with Nasdaq Listing Rule IM-5101-2, which requires that a special purpose acquisition company must complete one or more business combinations within 36 months of the effectiveness of its initial public offering registration statement. In response to the Notice, we timely requested a hearing before a Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the "Panel"), which was held on November 12, 2024. On December 17, 2024, we received a written notice (the "Decision") from Nasdaq that the Panel had granted our request to continue our listing on Nasdaq until March 17, 2025 (the "Extended Date"), provided that we comply with certain conditions, including that we would have completed the Initial Business Combination on or before the Extended Date, and that the combined company would have demonstrated compliance with all applicable requirements for an initial listing on Nasdaq.

On March 18, 2025, we received a written notice (the "Delisting Notice") from the Panel indicating that the Panel had determined to delist our securities from Nasdaq and that trading in our securities would be suspended at the open of trading on March 20, 2025, due to our failure to satisfy the terms of the Panel's Decision, including the requirement that we complete the Initial Business Combination on or before the Extended Date.

In connection with the delisting and suspension, we expect that Nasdaq will complete the delisting by filing a Notification of Removal from Listing and/or Registration under Section 12(b) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 on Form 25 with the SEC after the applicable Nasdaq review and appeal periods have lapsed.

Following suspension of trading on Nasdaq, our Public Shares, Rights, Units and Public Warrants commenced trading on the OTC Markets under the tickers "WINV," "WINVR," "WINVU," and "WINVW," respectively. There may be a very limited market in which our securities are traded, and the trading price of the Company's securities may be adversely affected. We can provide no assurance that our securities will continue to trade on this market, whether broker-dealers will continue to provide public quotes of our securities on this 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.

Results of Operations and Known Trends or Future Events

All activities through June 30, 2026 were related to our organizational activities, preparation for our Initial Public Offering, and, after our Initial Public Offering, identifying a target company for an Initial Business Combination and working to consummate our Initial Business Combination. We will not generate any operating revenues until after completion of our Initial Business Combination. Subsequent to our Initial Public Offering on September 17, 2021, we generate non-operating income in the form of interest on cash and cash equivalents held in the Trust Account, and prior to the liquidation of the money market funds held in the Trust Account in January 2025, we generated dividend income on such money market funds. There has been no significant change in our trading position and no material adverse change has occurred since the date of our audited financial statements. We incur ongoing expenses as a result of being a public company for legal, financial reporting, accounting and auditing compliance, as well as for due diligence expenses.

For the six months ended June 30, 2026, our net loss was $275,598 and expenses from operating activities were $308,303, as compared to a net loss of $1,000,101 and expenses from operating activities of $1,044,175 for the six months ended June 30, 2025. These decreases were mainly due to a decrease in legal and professional fees for the six months ended June 30, 2026, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2025 due to efforts being made to complete our Initial Business Combination in the prior year. We intend to use our operating cash held outside the Trust Account and any funds that we may borrow under promissory notes issued to our Sponsor primarily to evaluate target businesses, perform business due diligence on prospective target businesses, travel to and from the offices, plants or similar locations of prospective target businesses or their representatives or owners, review corporate documents and material agreements of prospective target businesses, and structure, negotiate and complete an Initial Business Combination.

Liquidity, Capital Resources and Going Concern

As of June 30, 2026, we had $1,516 in our operating bank account and a working capital deficit of $8,028,823, as compared to $111 in our operating bank account and a working capital deficit of $7,693,418 as of December 31, 2025. Our liquidity needs prior to the consummation of the Initial Public Offering had been satisfied through proceeds from advances from a related party, our Sponsor, and from the issuance of Common Stock. Subsequent to the consummation of the Initial Public Offering, liquidity has been satisfied through the net proceeds from the consummation of the Initial Public Offering, the proceeds from our Sponsor's purchase of Private Placement Warrants held outside of our Trust Account and loans from the Sponsor. We believe we will need to access additional liquidity in order to consummate an Initial Business Combination.

On March 16, 2021, we issued an unsecured promissory note to the Sponsor, which note was amended on March 27, 2022 (the "March 2021 Promissory Note"), pursuant to which we may borrow up to an aggregate principal amount of $300,000, of which $300,000 was outstanding under the March 2021 Promissory Note as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025. The March 2021 Promissory Note is non-interest bearing and payable on the date on which we consummate an Initial Business Combination. The Sponsor may elect to convert any portion or all of the amount outstanding under the March 2021 Promissory Note into warrants to purchase shares of our Common Stock at a conversion price of $0.50 per warrant, with each warrant entitling the holder thereof to acquire one-half share of Common Stock at an exercise price of $11.50 per whole share, commencing on the date of our Initial Business Combination. No such conversions have yet occurred. During 2023, we effected drawdowns of $300,000 under the March 2021 Promissory Note. These amounts remain outstanding as of June 30, 2026. The purpose of each drawdown is for the payment of expenses associated with operations and those necessary to initiate an Initial Business Combination.

On September 17, 2021, we consummated our Initial Public Offering of 10,000,000 units (the "Units"). Each Unit consists of one share of Common Stock, one redeemable warrant (the "Public Warrant"), with each Public Warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one-half (1/2) of one share of Common Stock at an exercise price of $11.50 per whole share, subject to adjustment, and one right (the "Right"), with each Right entitling the holder thereof to receive one-fifteenth (1/15) of one share of Common Stock upon the consummation by us of an Initial Business Combination. The Units were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $100,000,000 (before underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses).

Simultaneously with the consummation of the Initial Public Offering and the issuance and sale of the Units, we completed the private sale of 10,000,000 warrants (the "Private Placement Warrants," and collectively with the Public Warrants, the "Warrants") at a price of $0.50 per Private Placement Warrant to the Sponsor, generating gross proceeds of $5,000,000 (such sale, the "Private Placement"). Each Private Placement Warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one-half of one share of Common Stock at a price of $11.50 per whole share, subject to adjustment. The Private Placement Warrants are identical to the Public Warrants.

On September 23, 2021, our underwriters fully exercised the over-allotment option and purchased an additional 1,500,000 Units (the "Over-Allotment Units"), generating gross proceeds of $15,000,000 on September 27, 2021. Simultaneously with the sale of Over-Allotment Units, we consummated a private sale of an additional 900,000 Private Placement Warrants (the "Additional Private Placement Warrants") to the Sponsor at a purchase price of $0.50 per Private Placement Warrant, generating gross proceeds of $450,000.

We paid a total of $2,400,000 in underwriting discounts, expenses and commissions (not including deferred underwriting commissions of $4,025,000 payable only upon completion of our Initial Business Combination) and $523,969 for other costs and expenses related to the Initial Public Offering, resulting in aggregate net proceeds from the Initial Public Offering and overallotment of $112,076,031.

As of September 27, 2021, a total of $116,150,000 of the net proceeds from the Initial Public Offering and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants and the Additional Private Placement Warrants were deposited in the Trust Account, and we had $638,000 of cash held outside of the Trust Account, after payment of costs related to the Initial Public Offering.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on the basis that we will continue as a going concern, which assumes the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As of June 30, 2026, we had not commenced any operations. All activity since inception relates to identifying a target company for an Initial Business Combination and working to consummate our Initial Business Combination. We will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of the Initial Business Combination, at the earliest. We generate non-operating income in the form of interest income on cash and cash equivalents from the proceeds derived from the Initial Public Offering, and prior to the liquidation of the money market funds held in the Trust Account in January 2025, we generated dividend income on such money market funds. Our ability to commence operations is contingent upon consummating an Initial Business Combination. We currently have until September 17, 2026 to consummate our Initial Business Combination. Our plan to address the September 17, 2026 liquidation is to extend as needed to provide sufficient time to consummate our Initial Business Combination.

To the extent we are unable to consummate an Initial Business Combination, we will need to pay the costs of liquidation from our current available funds outside the Trust Account, including the approximate amount of $786,844 still available to us under the January 2025 Promissory Note as of June 30, 2026, and from up to $100,000 of interest income on the balance of the Trust Account (net of income and other tax obligations) that may be released to us to pay for dissolution expenses. If such funds are insufficient, our Sponsor has agreed to pay the funds necessary to complete such liquidation and has agreed not to seek repayment of such expenses. Based on these circumstances, management has determined that there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern due to insufficient liquidity, the uncertainty of liquidity requirements and the mandatory liquidation date within one year.

Accordingly, the accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP, which contemplates continuation of the Company as a going concern and the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

We do not have any long-term debt, capital lease obligations, operating lease obligations or long-term liabilities as of June 30, 2026, other than an agreement to pay our Sponsor a monthly fee of $10,000 for office space, secretarial, and administrative support services provided to the Company. We began incurring these fees on September 14, 2021 and will continue to incur these fees monthly until the earlier of the completion of an Initial Business Combination or the Company's liquidation.

Deferred underwriting discounts and commissions in an amount equal to 3.5% of the gross proceeds raised in the Initial Public Offering, or $4,025,000, will be payable to the underwriters upon the consummation of our Initial Business Combination and will be held in the Trust Account until the consummation of such Initial Business Combination.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of June 30, 2026, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as defined in Item 303 of Regulation S-K. We do not participate in transactions that create relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, often referred to as variable interest entities, which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements. We have not entered into any off-balance sheet financing arrangements, established any special purpose entities, guaranteed any debt or commitments of other entities, or purchased any non-financial assets.

Critical Accounting Estimates

The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with U.S. GAAP, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and income and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. Management has determined that the Company has no critical accounting estimates.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

We do not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on our financial statements.
