Overview

We are a blank check company, incorporated on March 11, 2022, as a Cayman Islands exempted company. We were formed for the purpose of entering into a merger, stock exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses (the “Business Combination”). On August 10, 2023, we setup Oak Woods Merger Sub, Inc. (“Merger Sub”) as a Cayman Islands exempted company.

On August 11, 2023, Oak Woods Acquisition Corporation, an exempted company incorporated in the Cayman Islands (“Oak Woods”), entered into a Merger Agreement and Plan of Reorganization (the “Merger Agreement”) with Oak Woods Merger Sub, Inc., a Cayman Islands corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Oak Woods (“Merger Sub”), Huajin (China) Holdings Limited, a Cayman Islands corporation (“Huajin”) and Xuehong Li , in his capacity as the representative of the Huajin shareholders (“Shareholders’ Representative” or otherwise hereinafter referred to as “Founder”). Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, and subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions set forth therein, Merger Sub will merge with and into Huajin (the “Merger”), with Huajin surviving the merger in accordance with the Companies Act (As Revised) of the Cayman Islands as a wholly- owned subsidiary of Oak Woods.

As of March 31, 2024, the Company had not commenced any operations, except as related to the prospective Merger. All other activities through March 31, 2024 were related to the Company’s formation, the IPO, and searching for a Business Combination target. We will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of a Business Combination, at the earliest. We will generate non-operating income in the form of interest income from the proceeds derived from the IPO.

Recent Development

On August 11, 2023, we entered into a Merger Agreement and Plan of Reorganization (the “Merger Agreement”) with Oak Woods Merger Sub, Inc., a Cayman Islands corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of us (“Merger Sub”), Huajin (China) Holdings Limited, a Cayman Islands corporation (“Huajin”) and Xuehong Li , in his capacity as the representative of the Huajin shareholders (“Shareholders’ Representative” or otherwise hereinafter referred to as “Founder”). Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, and subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions set forth therein, Merger Sub will merge with and into Huajin (the “Merger”), with Huajin surviving the merger in accordance with the Companies Act (As Revised) of the Cayman Islands as a wholly- owned subsidiary of us (the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and the related ancillary agreements, the “Business Combination”).

The aggregate consideration payable at the closing of the Business Combination (the “Closing”) to the shareholders of Huajin will be the issuance of such number of shares of Oak Woods Class A Ordinary Shares, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class A Ordinary Shares”) as shall be determined by subtracting the “Closing Net Debt” of Huajin (as defined in the Merger Agreement) from the agreed valuation of $250,000,000, and dividing such difference by $10.00, which represents the agreed valuation of one Class A Ordinary Share. At Closing, each holder of the ordinary shares of Huajin will receive, in exchange for the Huajin shares owned by such persons, shares of a Class A Ordinary Shares of Oak Woods in an amount equal to the product obtained by multiplying the number of ordinary shares of Huajin held by such shareholder by the Closing Consideration Conversion Ratio (as defined in the Merger Agreement). Of the Class A Ordinary Shares to be issued by Oak Woods at Closing, the Indemnification Escrow Shares (as defined below) shall be delivered into escrow for indemnification claims, as described herein. All of the Class A Ordinary Shares of Oak Woods issued and outstanding at the completion of the merger shall be renamed and redesignated as the ordinary shares of Oak Woods.

The parties also agreed that immediately following the Closing, Oak Woods’s board of directors will consist of five directors, three of which will be designated by Oak Woods and two of which will be designated by Huajin. As of the date of this Form 10-Q, Huajin made a deposit of $330,969 to the Company, a portion of which funds will be utilized to provide the deposit required to extend the time available to Oak Woods to complete a business combination. The balance of such funds may be used by Oak Woods to fund expenses.

On March 23, 2024, the Merger Agreement was amended by Agreement to Extend the Merger Agreement and Plan of Reorganization to extend the termination date of the proposed business combination transaction from March 23, 2024 to June 28, 2024 (the “First Amendment”).

The Company has filed an 8-K announcing the Merger Agreement on August 11, 2023 and preliminary proxy solicitation statements with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on February 12, 2024 and March 7, 2024, respectively, thereby automatically extending the Company’s minimum time to complete a Business Combination under the terms of its Memorandum and Articles of Association until June 28, 2024.

Results of Operations

We have neither engaged in any operations nor generated any operating revenues to date. Our only activities for the period from March 11, 2022 (inception) through March 31, 2024 have been organizational activities and those necessary to prepare for the Initial Public Offering and, after the Initial Public Offering, identifying a target company for a business combination. We do not expect to generate any operating revenues until after the completion of our initial business combination. We generated non-operating income in the form of interest income on cash and cash equivalents, and on investments held in Trust Account. We incur expenses as a result of being a public company (for legal, financial reporting, accounting and auditing compliance), as well as for due diligence expenses.

For the three months ended March 31, 2024, we had net income of $143,504 which resulted from interest income of $4,208 on the operating account, interest income of $785,928 on investments held in the trust account, and a downward change in fair value of warrant liabilities of $2,040, partially offset by operating expenses of $648,672.

For the three months ended March 31, 2023, we had a net loss of $17,984, which resulted from operating expenses of $43,943, partially offset by interest income of $4,901 on the operating account, and interest income of $21,058 on investments held in the trust account.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

On March 28, 2023, we consummated the initial public offering (“IPO”) of 5,750,000 units (the “Public Units’), including the full exercise of the over-allotment option of 750,000 Units granted to the underwriters. The Public Units were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per unit generating gross proceeds of $57,500,000. Simultaneously with the IPO, we sold to our Sponsor 343,125 units at $10.00 per unit (the “Private Units”) in a private placement generating total gross proceeds of $3,431,250. Each Unit consists of one share of Class A ordinary share, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Shares”), one redeemable warrant entitling its holder to purchase one Share at a price of $11.50 per Share, and one right to receive one-sixth (1/6) of one share upon the consummation of our initial business combination.

For the three months ended March 31, 2024, net cash used in operating activities was $329,089, which was due to net income of $143,504, adjusting interest income of $785,928 earned on trust account and changes in fair value of warrant liabilities of $2,040, and changes in operating assets and liabilities of $315,375.

For the three months ended March 31, 2023, net cash used in operating activities was $100,107, which was due to net loss of $17,984, adjusting interest income of $21,058 earned on trust account and changes in operating assets and liabilities of $61,065.

As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we had cash of $38,232 and $367,321, respectively, held outside the Trust Account. We intend to use the funds held outside the Trust Account primarily to identify and 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.

As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had working capital deficit of $1,026,668 and $382,204, respectively. The Company has incurred and expects to continue to incur significant professional costs to remain as a publicly traded company and to incur significant transaction costs in pursuit of the consummation of a Business Combination. In order to fund working capital deficiencies or finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor, or certain of the Company’s officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds as may be required (“Working Capital Loans”). If the Company completes a Business Combination, it would repay such loaned amounts at that time. Up to $1,151,000 of such Working Capital Loans may be converted upon completion of a Business Combination into units at a price of $10.00 per unit. Such units would be identical to the Private Units.

On August 11, 2023, the Company entered into a Merger Agreement and Plan of Reorganization (the “Merger Agreement”) with Oak Woods Merger Sub, Inc., a Cayman Islands corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub”), Huajin (China) Holdings Limited, a Cayman Islands corporation (“Huajin”) and Xuehong Li , in his capacity as the representative of the Huajin shareholders (“Shareholders’ Representative” or otherwise hereinafter referred to as “Founder”). Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, and subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions set forth therein, Merger Sub will merge with and into Huajin (the “Merger”), with Huajin surviving the merger in accordance with the Companies Act (As Revised) of the Cayman Islands as a wholly- owned subsidiary of the Company (the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and the related ancillary agreements, the “Business Combination”). In connection with the Business Combination, Huajin made a deposit of $330,969 to the Company. The Company recorded the deposit in the account of “deposit from the target company” on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet.

The Company has filed an 8-K announcing the Merger Agreement on August 11, 2023 and preliminary proxy solicitation statements with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on February 12, 2024 and March 7, 2024, thereby automatically extending the Company’s minimum time to complete a Business Combination under the terms of its Memorandum and Articles of Association until June 28, 2024.

In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with Financial Accounting Standard Board’s Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-15, “Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern,” management has determined that these conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. In addition, if the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the Company’s board of directors would proceed to commence a voluntary liquidation and thereby a formal dissolution of the Company. There is no assurance that the Company’s plans to consummate a Business Combination will be successful within the Combination Period. As a result, management has determined that such additional condition also raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

The Company intends to use substantially all of the funds held in the Trust Account, including any amounts representing interest earned on the Trust Account, excluding the deferred underwriting commissions, to complete an initial business combination. To the extent that capital stock or debt is used, in whole or in part, as consideration to complete an initial business combination, the remaining proceeds held in the Trust Account will be used as working capital to finance the operations of the target business or businesses, make other acquisitions and pursue growth strategies. If an initial business combination agreement requires the Company to use a portion of the cash in the Trust Account to pay the purchase price or requires the Company to have a minimum amount of cash at closing, the Company will need to reserve a portion of the cash in the Trust Account to meet such requirements or arrange for third-party financing.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no obligations, assets or liabilities, which would be considered off-balance sheet arrangements as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023. 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.

Contractual Obligations

Registration Rights

The holders of the founder shares, Private Placement Units, shares being issued to the underwriters of the Initial Public Offering, and units that may be issued on conversion of Working Capital Loans (and in each case holders of their component securities, as applicable) will be entitled to registration rights pursuant to a registration rights agreement to be signed prior to or on the effective date of Initial Public Offering requiring the Company to register such securities for resale. The holders of these securities will be entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short form registration demands, that the Company register such securities. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to completion of a Business Combination and rights to require the Company to register for resale such securities pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act. However, the registration rights agreement provides that the Company will not be required to effect or permit any registration or cause any registration statement to become effective until the securities covered thereby are released from their lock-up restrictions. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.

Promissory Note — Related Party

On July 15, 2022, the sponsor has agreed to loan the Company up to $500,000 to be used for a portion of the expenses of the Proposed Public Offering. This loan is non-interest bearing, unsecured and is due at the earlier of (1) the closing of the Proposed Public Offering or (2) the date on which the Company determines not to conduct an initial public offering of its securities. Effective on March 28, 2023, the Company and the sponsor entered into an extension agreement pursuant to which the sponsor agreed to extend the promissory note to May 31, 2023.

In June 2023, the Company repaid promissory notes due to the sponsor. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had no promissory notes due to related parties.

Administrative Services Agreement

The Company is obligated, commencing on March 23, 2023, to pay the sponsor a monthly fee of $10,000 for general and administrative services. However, pursuant to the terms of such agreement, the Company may delay payment of such monthly fee upon a determination by the audit committee that the Company lacks sufficient funds held outside the trust to pay actual or anticipated expenses in connection with the initial Business Combination. Any such unpaid amount will accrue without interest and be due and payable no later than the date of the consummation of our initial Business Combination.

For the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company accrued administrative service expenses of $30,000 and $nil, respectively. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had service fee payable of $120,000 and $90,000 due to the sponsor, respectively.

Underwriting Agreement

The Company granted the underwriter a 45-day option to purchase up to 750,000 additional Units to cover over-allotments, if any, at the Initial Public Offering price, less the underwriting discounts and commissions, which the underwriter partially exercised in full, and the additional Units were issued on March 23, 2023.

The underwriter was paid a cash underwriting discount of $0.20 per Unit, or $1,150,000 in the aggregate. In addition, the underwriter is entitled to a deferred fee of $0.35 per Unit, or $2,012,500 in the aggregate. 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.

Financial Advisory Agreement

The Company engaged Asian Legend International Investment Holding Limited (“AsianLegend”) as the Company’s advisor in connection with a Business Combination to assist the Company in holding meetings with its shareholders to discuss the potential Business Combination and the target business’ attributes, introduce the Company to potential investors that are interested in purchasing the Company’s securities, assist the Company in obtaining shareholder approval for the Business Combination and assist the Company with press releases and public filings in connection with the Business Combination simultaneously upon the firm commitment of this offering. Under the Merger Agreement and the agreement entered into between AsianLegend and the Company, with the consent of Huajin, The Company will pay AsianLegend a cash fee of $100,000 per month, from the month AsianLegend started consulting services to the date of Closing of the Business Combination for such services, plus Class A Ordinary Shares issued to AsianLegend upon the consummation of a Business Combination. The number of Class A Ordinary Shares to be issued to Asian Legend is calculated at 5% of the number of Class A Ordinary Shares to be issued to the Huajin shareholders upon the consummation of a Business Combination. AsianLegend started to provide consulting services in October 2023. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had accrued consulting service expenses of $600,000 and $300,000, respectively.

Critical Accounting Estimates

We prepare our financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of financial statements also requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, costs and expenses and related disclosures. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ significantly from the estimates made by our management. We have identified the following critical accounting estimates:

Warrant Liability

We classify private warrants as a liability at its fair value. This liability is subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet date. With each such re-measurement, the warrant liability will be adjusted to fair value, with the change in fair value recognized in our statement of operations. The fair value of our Private Placement Warrants requires significate estimates by management. Deviations from these estimates could result in a significate difference to our financial results.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

On December 14, 2023, the FASB issued a final standard on improvements to income tax disclosures. The standard requires disaggregated information about a reporting entity’s effective tax rate reconciliation as well as information on income taxes paid. The standard is intended to benefit investors by providing more detailed income tax disclosures that would be useful in making capital allocation decisions. ASU 2023-09, Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, applies to all entities subject to income taxes. For public business entities (PBEs), the new requirements will be effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. For entities other than public business entities (non-PBEs), the requirements will be effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2025. The guidance will be applied on a prospective basis with the option to apply the standard retrospectively. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact, if any, that ASU 2020-06 would have on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

As a smaller reporting company we are not required to make disclosures under this Item.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures 

As required by Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act, Mr. Lixin Zheng, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2024. Based upon his evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15 (e) and 15d-15 (e) under the Exchange Act) were effective.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

None.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS.

Factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those in this report include the risk factors described in our final prospectus filed with the SEC on March 24, 2023 and our preliminary proxy statements on Schedule 14A filed with the SEC on February 12, 2024 and March 7, 2024.

As of the date of this Report, other than as described below, there have been no material changes to the risk factors disclosed in our final prospectus filed with the SEC.

The military action commenced in February 2022 by the Russian Federation and Belarus in the country of Ukraine and related economic sanctions, and a series of terror attacks commenced in October 2023 by Hamas militants and members of other terrorist organizations infiltrating Israel’s southern border from the Gaza Strip and the ensuing war between the State of Israel and Harakat al-Muqawama al-Islamiya (Islamic Resistance Movement) or “Hamas,” could trigger global geopolitical, trade, political, or sanctions risks, as well as the risk of regional or international expansion of the conflict, including isolated conflicts or terrorist attacks outside of the immediate conflict area, as a result of which the Company’s ability to consummate a Business Combination, or the operations of a target business with which the Company ultimately consummates a Business Combination, may be materially and adversely affected.

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS.

On March 28, 2023, we consummated our IPO of 5,750,000 units (the “Public Units”), which includes the full exercise of the underwriter’s over-allotment option of 750,000 Public Units. Each Unit consists of one share of Class A Ordinary Share (“Class A Ordinary Share”), one redeemable warrant (“Warrant”) entitling its holder to purchase one share of Class A Ordinary Share at a price of $11.50 per share, and one right (“Right”) to receive one-sixth (1/6) of a share of Class A Ordinary Share upon the consummation of an initial business combination. The Public Units were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per Public Unit, generating gross proceeds of $57,500,000.

Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO on March 28, 2023, we consummated the private placement (“Private Placement”) with Whale Bay International Company Limited, our sponsor, purchasing units (the “Private Units”) at a price of $10.00 per Private Unit, generating total proceeds of $3,431,250.

The terms of the Private Units are identical to the Public Units except that the purchaser in the Private Placement agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of the Private Units or underlying securities (except in limited circumstances, as described in the Registration Statement) until the completion of the Company’s initial business combination; the purchaser was granted certain demand and piggyback registration rights in connection with the purchase of the Private Units; the purchaser agreed to certain voting restrictions and agreed to vote the underlying shares of Class A Ordinary Share in favor of any proposed initial business combination; and the purchaser agreed to not redeem the underlying shares of Class A Ordinary Share.

The Private Units were issued pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, as the transactions did not involve a public offering.

On March 28, 2023, a  total of $58,506,250 of the net proceeds from the IPO and the Private Placement were deposited in a trust account established for the benefit of the Company’s public stockholders and maintained by Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, acting as trustee.
