PIERMONT VALLEY ACQUISITION CORP
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 2025
NOTE 1 — DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION, BUSINESS OPERATIONS AND GOING CONCERN
Piermont Valley Acquisition Corp (formerly Capitalworks Emerging Markets Acquisition Corp) (the “Company”) is a blank check company incorporated as a Cayman Islands exempted company and formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities (the “Business Combination”). We have reviewed, and continue to review, a number of opportunities to enter into a Business Combination with an operating business, but we are not able to determine at this time whether we will complete a Business Combination with any of the target businesses that we have reviewed or with any other target business. We have neither engaged in any operations nor generated any operating revenue to date. Based on our business activities, we are a “shell company” as defined under the Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) because we have no operations and nominal assets consisting almost entirely of cash. 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, the Company had not commenced any operations. All activity for the period from April 20, 2021 (inception) through December 31, 2025 relates to the Company’s formation, initial public offering consummated on December 3, 2021 (“Initial Public Offering”) and search for a prospective target company, which is described below. The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of an 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 and the Private Placement (as defined below) deposited in the Trust Account (as defined below). The Company has selected March 31 as its fiscal year end.
On May 12, 2021, CEMAC Sponsor LP purchased an aggregate of
On December 3, 2021, the Company consummated an initial public offering of

On March 1, 2023, the Company entered into a definitive business combination agreement (the “Lexasure Business Combination Agreement”) with Lexasure Financial Group Limited, a Cayman Islands exempted company limited by shares (together with its successors, “Lexasure”), Lexasure Financial Holdings Corp., a Cayman Islands exempted company limited by shares (“Pubco”), CEMAC Merger Sub Inc., a Cayman Islands exempted company limited by shares and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Pubco (“SPAC Merger Sub”), Lexasure Merger Sub Inc., a Cayman Islands exempted company limited by shares and a wholly- owned subsidiary of Pubco (“Company Merger Sub” and, together with SPAC Merger Sub, the “Merger Subs”), CEMAC Sponsor LP, in the capacity as the representative from and after the effective time for the shareholders of the Company and Pubco (other than the former Lexasure shareholders) (the “SPAC Representative”), and Ian Lim Teck Soon, an individual, in the capacity as the representative from and after the Effective Time for the former Lexasure shareholders (the “Seller Representative”) for an initial business combination (the “Lexasure Business Combination”).
On May 18, 2023 and May 22, 2023, certain of our unaffiliated investors (the “Investors”) entered into non-redemption agreements (“Non-Redemption Agreements”) with CEMAC Sponsor LP, pursuant to which the Investors agreed to (i) not redeem an aggregate of up to
On May 23, 2023, the Company held an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders at which our shareholders approved, by special resolution, a proposal to amend and restate the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association to extend the date by which we must (1) consummate our Business Combination, (2) cease our operations except for the purpose of winding up if we fail to complete such Business Combination, and (3) redeem all of the Class A ordinary shares included as part of the Units sold in the Public Offering, with up to three optional additional extensions by an additional month each time, at the option of our board of directors, until March 3, 2024 (the “First Extension”). In connection with the First Extension, shareholders holding
On February 27, 2024, in connection with the extension of the date by which the Company was required to consummate an initial business combination, the Company entered into non-redemption agreements with certain unaffiliated investors. Under these agreements, such investors agreed not to redeem their public shares, and the sponsor agreed to forfeit up to

On February 29, 2024, the Company held another extraordinary general meeting of shareholders at which our shareholders approved, by special resolution, the proposal to amend and restate the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association to further extend the date by which we must (1) consummate our Business Combination from March 3, 2024 to March 3, 2025, (2) cease our operations except for the purpose of winding up if we fail to complete such Business Combination, and (3) redeem all of the Class A ordinary shares included as part of the Units sold in the Public Offering (the “Second Extension”). In connection with the Second Extension, shareholders holding
On March 22, 2024, the parties to the Lexasure Business Combination Agreement entered into a Termination and Release Agreement pursuant to which they agreed to terminate the Lexasure Business Combination Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby.
On April 19, 2024, CEMAC Sponsor LP entered into a securities purchase agreement with Vikasati Partners LLC (“Vikasati Partners” and together with CEMAC Sponsor LP, the “Prior Sponsors”), pursuant to which, among other things, Vikasati Partners would purchase (i) one Class B ordinary share of the Company, (ii)
On June 10, 2024, the Company received a notice from the Listing Qualifications Department (the “Staff”) of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) indicating that, as the Company was not able to complete a business combination within 36 months of the effectiveness of its IPO registration statement, or March 5, 2024, as required under Nasdaq Listing Rule IM-5101-2 (the “Rule”), the Company did not comply with the Rule and its securities were subject to delisting. In that regard, the Staff determined that the Company’s securities would be delisted from trading on Nasdaq and suspended at the opening of business on April 29, 2024. The Notice indicated that the Company had the right to appeal the Staff’s determination to a hearings panel. However, pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule5815(c)(1)(H), in the case of a company whose business plan is to complete one or more acquisitions, such as the Company, where the Notice is based on a failure to satisfy the requirement of the Rule to consummate a business combination within 36 months, the panel may only reverse the delisting decision where there has been a factual error applying the Rule. Based on the foregoing, the Company decided not to appeal the suspension.
On February 28, 2025, the Company held another extraordinary general meeting of shareholders at which our shareholders approved, by special resolution, the proposal to amend and restate the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association to further extend the date by which we must (1) consummate our Business Combination from March 3, 2025 to March 3, 2026, (2) cease our operations except for the purpose of winding up if we fail to complete such Business Combination, and (3) redeem all of the Class A ordinary shares included as part of the Units sold in the Public Offering (the “Third Extension”). In connection with the Third Extension, shareholders holding
In February 2025, the Company changed its name from Capitalworks Emerging Markets Acquisition Corp to Piermont Valley Acquisition Corp.
Effective as of July 11, 2025, the Company, Vikasati Partners and Valleypark Road, LLC (“Valleypark”) entered into a purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”). Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, among other things: (a) Vikasati Partners transferred to Valleypark an aggregate of

Effective as of August 14, 2025, our Board of Directors dismissed Marcum LLP (“Marcum”) as our independent registered public accounting firm. Effective as of August 15, 2025, our Board of Directors approved the appointment of Aloba, Awomolo & Partners (“Aloba”) as our independent registered public accounting firm. Marcum’s audit reports on our financial statements for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principle, except for a paragraph relating to substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. During the two most recent fiscal years ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 and the subsequent interim period through August 14, 2025, there were no disagreements or reportable events between us and Marcum, except that, as previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023, we identified a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting related to the accounting for complex financial instruments and the restatement of previously issued financial statement
On August 14, 2025, Valleypark agreed to loan to us up to an aggregate of $
During the nine months ended December 31, 2025, the Company recorded the waiver and forgiveness of certain liabilities by the Prior Sponsors and related parties in connection with the previously disclosed transition to a new sponsor. As part of this transition, the former sponsor waived and forgave amounts due to related parties, cancelled private placement warrants, waived notes payable, and forgave a related party note. These items were recorded as capital contributions and resulted in a reduction of the Company’s shareholders’ deficit. The decrease in shareholders’ deficit was partially offset by the net loss incurred during the period and accretion related to redeemable shares.

Business Combination
The Company’s management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and Private Placement, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be and have been applied generally toward consummating a Business Combination. The stock exchange listing rules require that the Business Combination must be with one or more operating businesses or assets with a fair market value equal to at least
The Company will provide the holders of the outstanding Public Shares (the “Public Shareholders”) with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares either (i) in connection with a shareholder meeting called to approve the Business Combination or (ii) by means of a tender offer in connection with the Business Combination. 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. The Public Shareholders will be entitled to redeem their Public Shares for a pro rata portion of the amount then in the Trust Account. There will be no redemption rights upon the completion of a Business Combination with respect to the Company’s warrants. The Public Shares subject to redemption will be recorded at a 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”).
All of the Public Shares contain a redemption feature that allows for the redemption of such Public Shares in connection with the Company’s liquidation, if there is a shareholder vote or tender offer in connection with the Company’s Business Combination and in connection with certain amendments to the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of associates (the “Charter”). In accordance with the rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and its guidance on redeemable equity instruments, which has been codified in ASC 480-10-S99, redemption provisions not solely within the control of a company require ordinary shares subject to redemption to be classified outside of permanent equity. Given that the Public Shares will be issued with other freestanding instruments (i.e., the Public Warrants), the initial carrying value of the Class A ordinary shares (as defined in Note 7) classified as temporary equity were allocated proceeds determined in accordance with ASC Topic 470-20, “Debt with Conversion and other Options”. The Class A ordinary shares are subject to ASC 480-10-S99. If it is probable that the equity instrument will become redeemable, the Company has the option to either (i) accrete changes in the redemption value over the period from the date of issuance (or from the date that it becomes probable that the instrument will become redeemable, if later) to the earliest redemption date of the instrument or (ii) recognize changes in the redemption value immediately as they occur and adjust the carrying amount of the instrument to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. The Company has elected to recognize the changes immediately. The Public Shares are redeemable and are classified as such on the Company’s balance sheets until such date that a redemption event takes place. Redemptions of the Public Shares may be subject to the satisfaction of conditions, including minimum cash conditions, pursuant to an agreement relating to the Business Combination.

If the Company seeks shareholder approval of the Business Combination, the Company will proceed with a Business Combination only if the Company receives an ordinary resolution under Cayman Islands law approving a Business Combination, which requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the shareholders who attend and vote at a general meeting of the Company, or such other vote as required by law or stock exchange rule. If a shareholder vote is not required 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 SEC, and file tender offer documents containing substantially the same information as would be included in a proxy statement with the SEC prior to completing a Business Combination. If the Company seeks shareholder approval in connection with a Business Combination, the holders of the Founder Shares (as defined in Note 5) and any Public Shares held by them have agreed to vote in favor of approving a Business Combination. Additionally, each Public Shareholder may elect to redeem their Public Shares, without voting, and if they do vote, irrespective of whether they vote for or against a proposed Business Combination.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company seeks shareholder approval of the Business Combination and the Company does not conduct redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules, 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
The holders of the Founder Shares have agreed (a) to waive their redemption rights with respect to any Founder Shares and Public Shares held by them in connection with the completion of a Business Combination and (b) not to propose an amendment to the Charter (i) to modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to allow redemption in connection with the Company’s initial Business Combination or to redeem 100% of the Public Shares if the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period (as defined below) or (ii) with respect to any other provision 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 upon approval of any such amendment.
The Company originally had a 27-month period, from the closing of the Initial Public Offering to March 3, 2024 (or such earlier date as determined by the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”)) as extended by the Extension (as defined in Note 10), unless further extended pursuant to the Charter, to consummate a Business Combination (the “Combination Period”). If the Company has not completed a Business Combination within the Combination Period, 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, redeem 100% of the Public Shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned and not previously released to the Company to pay its taxes, if any (less up to $

The holders of the Founder Shares have agreed to waive its rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to the Founder Shares if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period. However, if they or any of their affiliates acquire Public Shares, such Public Shares will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period. The underwriters have agreed to waive their rights to their deferred underwriting commission (see Note 6) 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 assets remaining available for distribution will be less than the Initial Public Offering price per Unit ($
In order to protect the amounts held in the Trust Account, the Prior Sponsors have agreed that they will be liable to the Company if and to the extent any claims by a third party (other than 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 discussed entering into a transaction agreement, reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account to below the lesser of (1) $
Redemption and Extension
On May 18, 2023 and May 22, 2023, the Company entered into non-redemption agreements with CEMAC Sponsor LP and certain unaffiliated third parties (individually, an “NRA Holder” and collectively, the “NRA Holders”) in exchange for the NRA Holder or NRA Holders agreeing either not to request redemption, or to reverse any previously submitted redemption demand with respect to an aggregate of

Risks and Uncertainties
Various social and political circumstances in the United States and around the world (including wars and other forms of conflict, including rising trade tensions between the United States and China, and other uncertainties regarding actual and potential shifts in the United States and foreign, trade, economic and other policies with other countries, terrorist acts, security operations and catastrophic events such as fires, floods, earthquakes, tornadoes, hurricanes and global health epidemics) may contribute to increased market volatility and economic uncertainties or deterioration in the United States and worldwide. This market volatility could adversely affect the Company’s ability to complete a Business Combination. In response to the conflict between nations, the United States and other countries have imposed sanctions or other restrictive actions against certain countries. Any of the above factors, including sanctions, export controls, tariffs, trade wars and other governmental actions, could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s ability to complete a Business Combination and the value of the Company’s securities.
Management continues to evaluate the impact of these types of risks on the industry and has concluded that while it is reasonably possible that these types of risks could have a negative effect on the Company’s financial position, results of its operations and/or search for a target company, the specific impact is not readily determinable as of the date of issuance of these financial statements. These financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the Public Offering and the sale of the 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 accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of the above uncertainties.

NOTE 2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and SEC rules and regulations.
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, as amended (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 of 2002, 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 a 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 which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the accompanying 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 balance sheet.
Making estimates requires the Company’s 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 balance sheet, which the Company’s management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.

Offering Costs associated with the Initial Public Offering
The Company complies with the requirements of ASC Topic 340-10-S99-1 and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 5A, “Expenses of Offering”. Offering costs were allocated to the separable financial instruments issued in the Initial Public Offering. Upon completion of the Initial Public Offering, offering costs associated with warrant liabilities are expensed as incurred. Offering costs associated with the Units were allocated between temporary equity and the Public Warrants by the relative fair value method. Offering costs of $
Class A Ordinary Shares subject to Possible Redemption
The Company accounts for its Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance enumerated in ASC 480. Ordinary shares subject to mandatory redemption is classified as a liability instrument and is measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable ordinary shares (including ordinary shares that feature redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the Company’s control) are classified as temporary equity. At all other times, ordinary shares are classified as shareholders’ equity. The Company’s Class A ordinary shares feature certain redemption rights that are considered by the Company to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to the occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, at December 31, 2025 and March 31, 2025,
The Company recognizes changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and adjusts the carrying value of redeemable Class A ordinary shares to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Immediately upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company recognized a measurement adjustment from initial book value to redemption amount value. As of December 31, 2025, the change in the carrying value of redeemable Class A ordinary shares resulted in charges against deficit of approximately $

Net income/(loss) per share
Net income/(loss) per share is computed by dividing net income/(loss) by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period. The Company applies the two-class method in calculating earnings per share. Earnings and losses are shared pro rata between the two classes of shares. The calculation of diluted income per ordinary share does not consider the effect of the warrants issued in connection with the (i) Initial Public Offering, (ii) exercise of over-allotment and (iii) Private Placement, since their inclusion would be anti-dilutive under the two-class method. As a result, diluted earnings per ordinary share is the same as basic earnings per ordinary share for the periods presented. The warrants are exercisable to purchase

Income Taxes
The Company follows the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes under 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 statements 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.
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. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. There were no unrecognized tax benefits and no amounts accrued for interest and penalties as of December 31, 2025 and March 31, 202. 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 is subject to income tax examinations by major taxing authorities since inception.

| Table of Contents |
There is currently no taxation imposed on income by the Government of the Cayman Islands. In accordance with Cayman Islands income tax regulations, income taxes are not levied on the Company. Consequently, income taxes are not reflected in the accompanying balance sheets.
Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of a cash account in a financial institution, which, at times, may exceed the Federal Depository Insurance Corporation coverage limit of $
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
“Fair value” is defined as the price that would be received for sale of an asset or paid to 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. |
See Note 9 for additional information regarding liabilities measured at fair value.
Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company evaluates its financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives in accordance with ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging” (“ASC 815”). The Company’s derivative instruments are recorded at fair value as of the closing date of the Initial Public Offering (December 3, 2021) and re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the statements of operations. Derivative assets and liabilities are classified on the accompanying balance sheets as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement or conversion of the instrument could be required within 12 months of the balance sheet date. The Company has determined the Public Warrants, the Private Placement Warrants and the Forward Purchase Agreement are each a derivative instrument. As the Public Warrants, the Private Placement Warrants and the Forward Purchase Agreement meet the definition of a derivative, the Public Warrants, the Private Placement Warrants and the Forward Purchase Agreement are measured at fair value at issuance and at each reporting date in accordance with ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurement”, with changes in fair value recognized in the statement of operations in the period of change.
| 19 |
| Table of Contents |
Warrant Instruments
The Company accounts for the Public Warrants and the Private Placement Warrants issued in connection with the Initial Public Offering and the Private Placement in accordance with the guidance contained in ASC 815, whereby under that provision, the Public Warrants and the Private Placement Warrants do not meet the criteria for equity treatment and must be recorded as a liability. Accordingly, the Company classifies the warrant instrument as a liability at fair value and adjust the instrument to fair value at each reporting period. This liability will be re-measured at each balance sheet date until the Public Warrants and the Private Placement Warrants are exercised or expire, and any change in fair value will be recognized in the Company’s statement of operations. The fair value at issuance was calculated using a Monte Carlo simulation model to value the Public Warrants and a modified Black-Scholes model to value the Private Placement Warrants. The valuation models utilize inputs and other assumptions and may not be reflective of the price at which they can be settled. Such warrant classification is also subject to re-evaluation at each reporting period. Due to the terms within the warrant agreement, as of March 31, 2022 and for all periods subsequent to the detachment of the Public Warrants from the Units, the Public Warrant quoted market price will be used to calculate the fair value of the Private Placement Warrants as of each relevant reporting date. Upon issuance of the Private Placement Warrants, the Company recorded a charge of $
Recent Accounting Standards
In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU Topic 2020-06, Debt - Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40) (“ASU 2020-06”) to simplify accounting for certain financial instruments. ASU 2020-06 eliminates the current models that require separation of beneficial conversion and cash conversion features from convertible instruments, and simplifies the derivative scope exception guidance pertaining to equity classification of contracts in an entity’s own equity. The new standard also introduces additional disclosures for convertible debt and freestanding instruments that are indexed to and settled in an entity’s own equity. ASU 2020-06 amends the diluted earnings per share guidance, including the requirement to use the if-converted method for all convertible instruments. ASU 2020-06 is effective January 1, 2024 and should be applied on a full or modified retrospective basis, with early adoption permitted beginning on January 1, 2021. The Company is currently assessing the impact, if any, it would have on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
The Company’s management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements.

Registration Rights
The holders of the Founder Shares, Private Placement Warrants and warrants that may be issued upon conversion of Working Capital Loans or Extension Loan (and any shares of ordinary shares issuable upon the exercise of the Private Placement Warrants or warrants issued upon conversion of the Working Capital Loans or Extension Loan and upon conversion of the Founder Shares) are entitled to registration rights pursuant to a registration rights agreement requiring the Company to register such securities for resale (in the case of the Founder Shares, only after conversion to Class A ordinary shares). The holders of these securities are 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.

In connection with the sponsor change transaction, the consulting agreement with the Second Strategic Advisor was terminated, and no shares were issued or are issuable pursuant to the agreement.
Non-Redemption Agreements
The Company initially had until March 3, 2023 to consummate a Business Combination, with an automatic three-month extension if the Company signed a definitive agreement with respect to the Business Combination within such 15-month period, as described in the final prospectus for the Initial Public Offering, filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(4) with the SEC on December 2, 2021 (File No. 333-260513) (the “IPO Prospectus”).
In February 2023, prior to signing the Lexausre Business Combination Agreement, the Company prepared to hold an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders to, among other things, seek an extension of the time it had to consummate a Business Combination (the “March 2023 Meeting”). On February 27, 2023, in connection with the March 2023 Meeting, the Company and the Sponsor, entered into non-redemption agreements (the “Terminated Non-Redemption Agreements”) with certain unaffiliated third parties in exchange for such third parties agreeing not to redeem up to an aggregate of

Class B Ordinary Shares
The Company is authorized to issue
Only holders of the Class B ordinary shares have the right to vote on the election of directors prior to the Business Combination. Holders of ordinary shares, including holders of Class A ordinary shares and holders of Class B ordinary shares, will vote together as a single class on all matters submitted to a vote of the Company’s shareholders except as otherwise required by law. In connection with its initial Business Combination, the Company may enter into a shareholders agreement or other arrangements with the shareholders of the target or other investors to provide for voting or other corporate governance arrangements that differ from those in effect upon completion of the Initial Public Offering.
The Class B ordinary shares will automatically convert into Class A ordinary shares at the time of a Business Combination (or earlier at the option of the holders thereof), on a one-for-one basis, subject to adjustment. In the case that additional Class A ordinary shares, or equity-linked securities, are issued or deemed issued in excess of the amounts issued in the Initial Public Offering and related to the closing of a Business Combination, the ratio at which Class B ordinary shares shall convert into Class A ordinary shares will be adjusted (unless the holders of a majority of the then-outstanding Class B ordinary shares agree to waive such adjustment with respect to any such issuance or deemed issuance) so that the number of Class A ordinary shares issuable upon conversion of all the Class B ordinary shares will equal, in the aggregate, on an as-converted basis,

Public Warrants may only be exercised for a whole number of shares. No fractional warrants were issued upon separation of the Units and only whole warrants trade. The Public Warrants will become exercisable on the later of (a)
The Company will not be obligated to deliver any Class A ordinary share 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 covering the issuance of the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants is then effective and a current prospectus relating to those Class A ordinary shares is available, subject to the Company satisfying its obligations with respect to registration, or a valid exemption from registration is available. No warrant will be exercisable for cash or on a cashless basis, and the Company will not be obligated to issue any shares to holders seeking to exercise their warrants, unless the issuance of the shares upon such exercise is registered or qualified under the securities laws of the state of residence of the exercising holder, or an exemption from registration is available.

If the Company calls the Public Warrants for redemption, as described above, its management will have the option to require any holder that wishes to exercise the Public Warrants to do so on a “cashless basis,” as described in the warrant agreement. The exercise price and number of ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the Public Warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances including in the event of a stock dividend, extraordinary dividend or recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation. However, except as described below, the Public Warrants will not be adjusted for issuances of ordinary shares at a price below its exercise price. Additionally, in no event will the Company be required to net cash settle the Public Warrants. If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period and the Company liquidates the funds held in the Trust Account, holders of Public Warrants will not receive any of such funds with respect to their Public Warrants, nor will they receive any distribution from the Company’s assets held outside of the Trust Account with respect to such Public Warrants. Accordingly, the Public Warrants may expire worthless.

The Private Placement Warrants are identical to the Public Warrants, except that the Private Placement Warrants and the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon the exercise of the Private Placement Warrants will not be transferable, assignable or saleable until 30 days after the completion of a Business Combination, subject to certain limited exceptions. Additionally, the Private Placement Warrants will be exercisable on a cashless basis and be non-redeemable, except as described above, so long as they are held by the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees. If the Private Placement Warrants are held by someone other than the initial purchasers 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.
The Company accounts for the
The accounting treatment of derivative financial instruments requires that the Company record a derivative liability upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering. Accordingly, the Company classifies each warrant as a liability at its fair value and the warrants are allocated a portion of the proceeds from the issuance of the Units equal to its fair value. This liability is subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet date. With each such re-measurement, the warrant liability is adjusted to fair value, with the change in fair value recognized in the Company’s statement of operations. The Company reassess the classification at each balance sheet date. If the classification changes as a result of events during the period, the warrants are reclassified as of the date of the event that causes the reclassification.
Upon issuance of the derivative warrants, the Company recorded a derivative liability of $
In connection with the transition of control to Valleypark, the Company’s Prior Sponsors agreed to cancel and forfeit all outstanding Private Placement Warrants held by them. As a result, the Private Placement Warrants were cancelled and were no longer outstanding as of the end of the period. The cancellation of the Private Placement Warrants resulted in the elimination of the related warrant liability and was accounted for as a capital contribution. Following the cancellation, only the Public Warrants remain outstanding and subject to remeasurement at fair value.
NOTE 9 — FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The following table presents information about the Company’s assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value as of December 31, 2025 and March 31, 2025, and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation inputs the Company utilized to determine such fair value:

The Public Warrants, the Private Placement Warrants and the Forward Purchase Agreement are accounted for as liabilities in accordance with ASC 815-40 and are presented within liabilities on the accompanying balance sheets. The warrant liabilities and Forward Purchase Agreement liability are measured at fair value at inception and on a recurring basis, with changes in fair value presented within change in fair value of warrant liabilities in the statement of operations.
Upon initial issuance, the Company used a Monte Carlo simulation model to value the Public Warrants and a modified Black-Scholes model to value the Private Placement Warrants and the Forward Purchase Agreement liability. The Company allocated the proceeds received from (i) the sale of Units (which is inclusive of one Class A ordinary share and one-half of one Public Warrant), (ii) the sale of Private Placement Warrants, (iii) the sale of the Forward Purchase Agreement and (iv) the issuance of Class B ordinary shares, first to the warrants and the Forward Purchase Agreement based on their fair values as determined at initial measurement, with the remaining proceeds allocated to Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption (temporary equity) and Class B ordinary shares (permanent equity) based on their relative fair values at the initial measurement date. Upon initial issuance, the Public Warrants, the Private Placement Warrants and the Forward Purchase Agreement were classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy at the measurement dates due to the use of unobservable inputs. Inherent in pricing models are assumptions related to expected share-price volatility, expected life and risk-free interest rate. The Company estimates the volatility of its ordinary shares based on historical volatility 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. Transfers to/from Levels 1, 2 and 3 are recognized at the end of the reporting period in which a change in valuation technique or methodology occurs.
The warrants are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The Public Warrants were initially valued using a Monte Carlo Simulation which at initial issuance was a Level 3 measurement. As of December 31, 2025 and March 31, 2025, the Public Warrants were valued using the instrument’s trading price as of the balance sheet date, which is considered to be a Level 1 measurement due to the use of an observable market quote in an active market. At initial measurement, the Private Placement Warrants were valued using a Modified Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model, which is considered to be a Level 3 fair value measurement. The primary unobservable input utilized in determining the fair value of the Private Placement Warrants was the expected volatility of the ordinary shares. Due to the attributes of the Private Placement Warrants, at December 31, 2025 and March 31, 2025, the Private Placement Warrants were valued using the Public Warrants trading price and considered to be a Level 2 fair value measurement.
Through June 30, 2025, both the Public Warrants and the Private Placement Warrants remained outstanding and were subject to remeasurement at fair value. In connection with the transition to a new sponsor subsequent to June 30, 2025, the Company’s former sponsor cancelled and forfeited all 11,700,000 Private Placement Warrants. As a result, the related Private Placement Warrant liability was eliminated and accounted for as a capital contribution. As of December 31, 2025, only the
As of December 31, 2025 and March 31, 2025, the warrant derivative liability was $

Item 2 – Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
References to the “Company,” “our,” “us” or “we” refer to Piermont Valley Acquisition Corp. The following discussion and analysis of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the unaudited financial statements and the notes related thereto. Certain information contained in the discussion and analysis set forth below includes forward-looking statements. Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of many factors.
Overview
We are a blank check company incorporated as a Cayman Islands exempted company and formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities (the “Business Combination”). We have reviewed, and continue to review, a number of opportunities to enter into a Business Combination with an operating business, but we are not able to determine at this time whether we will complete a Business Combination with any of the target businesses that we have reviewed or with any other target business. We have neither engaged in any operations nor generated any operating revenue to date. Based on our business activities, we are a “shell company” as defined under the Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) because we have no operations and nominal assets consisting almost entirely of cash. We are an emerging growth company and, as such, we are subject to all of the risks associated with emerging growth companies.
On May 12, 2021, CEMAC Sponsor LP purchased an aggregate of 5,750,000 Class B ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 (the “Founder Shares”) for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000, or approximately $0.004 per share.
On December 3, 2021, we consummated an initial public offering of 23,000,000 units (the “Units”), which included the exercise in full of the underwriter’s option to purchase an additional 3,000,000 Units at the Public Offering price to cover over-allotments, at a price of $10.00 per Unit generating gross proceeds of $230.0 million before underwriting discounts and expenses (the “Public Offering”). Each “Unit” consists of one Class A ordinary share, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class A ordinary shares”) and one-half of one redeemable warrant (the “Public Warrants”), each whole Public Warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one Class A ordinary share at an exercise price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment. Only whole Public Warrants may be exercised and no fractional Public Warrants will be issued upon separation of the Units and only whole Public Warrants may be traded.
Simultaneously with the closing of the Public Offering, we completed the private sale of an aggregate of 10,500,000 warrants (the “Private Placement Warrants” and together with the Public Warrants, the “Warrants”), each exercisable to purchase one Class A ordinary share for $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment, to CEMAC Sponsor LP, at a price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant. The Public Warrants will become exercisable 30 days after the completion of a Business Combination; provided that we have an effective registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) covering the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon the exercise of the Public Warrants and a current prospectus relating to them is available 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 (or holders are permitted to exercise their Public Warrants on a cashless basis under certain circumstances as a result of our failure to have an effective registration statement by the 60th business day after the closing of the Business Combination), and will expire five years after the completion of the Business Combination or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.
We entered into the Forward Purchase Agreement, as amended, with Camber Base, LLC, an affiliate of Brown University (the “Forward Purchase Investor”) pursuant to which the Forward Purchase Investor, or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates, may, at the sole written election of the Forward Purchase Investor, purchase up to $20.0 million Forward Purchase Units, for $10.00 per Forward Purchase Unit, in a private placement that will close substantially concurrently with the closing of our Initial Business Combination. One Forward Purchase Unit consists of one Forward Purchase Share and one-half of one Forward Purchase Warrant. The Forward Purchase Investor has agreed that it, and any of its subsidiaries or affiliates will not redeem any Class A Ordinary Shares held by any of them in connection with the Initial Business Combination. Each whole Forward Purchase Warrant is exercisable to purchase one Class A Ordinary Share at $11.50 per share. The Forward Purchase Warrants will have the same terms as the Public Warrants and the Forward Purchase Shares will be identical to the Class A Ordinary Shares included in the Units sold in the IPO, except the Forward Purchase Shares will be subject to transfer restrictions and certain registration rights. The purchase of the Forward Purchase Units may be made regardless of whether any of our Class A Ordinary Shares are redeemed by our Public Shareholders and are intended to provide us with a minimum funding level for our Initial Business Combination. The proceeds from the sale of Forward Purchase Units may be used as part of the consideration to the sellers in our Initial Business Combination, expenses in connection with our Initial Business Combination and for working capital in the post-transaction company.

On March 1, 2023, we entered into a definitive business combination agreement (the “Lexasure Business Combination Agreement”) with Lexasure Financial Group Limited, a Cayman Islands exempted company limited by shares (together with its successors, “Lexasure”), Lexasure Financial Holdings Corp., a Cayman Islands exempted company limited by shares (“Pubco”), CEMAC Merger Sub Inc., a Cayman Islands exempted company limited by shares and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Pubco (“SPAC Merger Sub”), Lexasure Merger Sub Inc., a Cayman Islands exempted company limited by shares and a wholly- owned subsidiary of Pubco (“Company Merger Sub” and, together with SPAC Merger Sub, the “Merger Subs”), CEMAC Sponsor LP, in the capacity as the representative from and after the effective time for the shareholders of the Company and Pubco (other than the former Lexasure shareholders) (the “SPAC Representative”), and Ian Lim Teck Soon, an individual, in the capacity as the representative from and after the Effective Time for the former Lexasure shareholders (the “Seller Representative”) for an initial business combination (the “Lexasure Business Combination”).
On May 18, 2023 and May 22, 2023, certain of our unaffiliated investors (the “Investors”) entered into non-redemption agreements (“Non-Redemption Agreements”) with CEMAC Sponsor LP, pursuant to which the Investors agreed to (i) not redeem an aggregate of up to 4,399,737 previously-held Class A ordinary shares (the “Investor Shares”) in connection with the First Extension (as defined below) and (ii) vote the Investor Shares in favor of the First Extension. In exchange for these commitments from the Investors, CEMAC Partners agreed to transfer to the Investors (i) an aggregate of up to 1,000,000 Class B ordinary shares in connection with an extension until June 3, 2025 and (ii) to the extent our board of directors agrees to further extend the date up to three times by an additional month each time until March 3, 2024 to consummate its Business Combination, an aggregate of up to 1,500,000 Class B ordinary shares, which includes the Class B ordinary shares referred to in clause (i), in each case, on or promptly after the consummation of the Business Combination.
On May 23, 2023, we held an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders at which our shareholders approved, by special resolution, a proposal to amend and restate the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association to extend the date by which we must (1) consummate our Business Combination, (2) cease our operations except for the purpose of winding up if we fail to complete such Business Combination, and (3) redeem all of the Class A ordinary shares included as part of the Units sold in the Public Offering, with up to three optional additional extensions by an additional month each time, at the option of our board of directors, until March 3, 2024 (the “First Extension”). In connection with the First Extension, shareholders holding 18,751,603 Class A ordinary shares exercised their right to redeem such shares at a per share redemption price of $10.51. As a result, approximately $197.2 million was removed from our Trust Account to pay such holders.
On February 27, 2024, in connection with the extension of the date by which we were required to consummate an initial business combination, we entered into non-redemption agreements with certain unaffiliated investors. Under these agreements, such investors agreed not to redeem their public shares, and the sponsor agreed to forfeit up to 307,500 founder shares, with a corresponding number of Class A ordinary shares to be issued to the participating investors. These arrangements were intended to support the maintenance of the minimum number of public shares required in connection with the extension.
On February 29, 2024, we held another extraordinary general meeting of shareholders at which our shareholders approved, by special resolution, the proposal to amend and restate the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association to further extend the date by which we must (1) consummate our Business Combination from March 3, 2024 to March 3, 2025, (2) cease our operations except for the purpose of winding up if we fail to complete such Business Combination, and (3) redeem all of the Class A ordinary shares included as part of the Units sold in the Public Offering (the “Second Extension”). In connection with the Second Extension, shareholders holding 3,036,666 Class A Ordinary Shares exercised their right to redeem such shares at a per share redemption price of $11.07. As a result, approximately $33,616,850 was removed from our Trust Account to pay such holders.

On March 22, 2024, the parties to the Lexasure Business Combination Agreement entered into a Termination and Release Agreement pursuant to which they agreed to terminate the Lexasure Business Combination Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby.
On April 19, 2024, CEMAC Sponsor LP entered into a securities purchase agreement with Vikasati Partners, pursuant to which, among other things, Vikasati would purchase (i) one Class B ordinary share of the Company, (ii) 3,925,000 Class A ordinary shares of the Company and (iii) 7,605,000 private placement warrants of the Company from CEMAC Sponsor LP, the existing directors and officers of the Company would resign, and new directors and officers designated by Vikasati Partners would be appointed. On April 25, 2024, the parties closed the transactions contemplated by the securities purchase agreement.
On June 10, 2024, we received a notice from the Listing Qualifications Department (the “Staff”) of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) indicating that, as we were not able to complete a business combination within 36 months of the effectiveness of its IPO registration statement, or March 5, 2024, as required under Nasdaq Listing Rule IM-5101-2 (the “Rule”), we did not comply with the Rule and our securities were subject to delisting. In that regard, the Staff determined that our securities would be delisted from trading on Nasdaq and suspended at the opening of business on April 29, 2024. The Notice indicated that we had the right to appeal the Staff’s determination to a hearings panel. However, pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule5815(c)(1)(H), in the case of a company whose business plan is to complete one or more acquisitions, such as the Company, where the Notice is based on a failure to satisfy the requirement of the Rule to consummate a business combination within 36 months, the panel may only reverse the delisting decision where there has been a factual error applying the Rule. Based on the foregoing, we decided not to appeal the suspension.
On February 28, 2025, we held another extraordinary general meeting of shareholders at which our shareholders approved, by special resolution, the proposal to amend and restate the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association to further extend the date by which we must (1) consummate our Business Combination from March 3, 2025 to March 3, 2026, (2) cease our operations except for the purpose of winding up if we fail to complete such Business Combination, and (3) redeem all of the Class A ordinary shares included as part of the Units sold in the Public Offering (the “Third Extension”). In connection with the Third Extension, shareholders holding 1,066,745 Class A Ordinary Shares exercised their right to redeem such shares at a per share redemption price of approximately $10.91. As a result, approximately $11.64 million was removed from our Trust Account to pay such holders.
In February 2025, the Company changed its name from Capitalworks Emerging Markets Acquisition Corp to Piermont Valley Acquisition Corp.
Effective as of July 11, 2025, we, Vikasati Partners LLC and Valleypark Road, LLC entered into a purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”). Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, among other things: (a) Vikasati Partners transferred to the Purchaser an aggregate of 2,238,999 Class A Ordinary Shares, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Company and 1 Class B Ordinary Share, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Company; (b) we , the Purchaser and Vikasati Partners executed an amendment to the letter agreement originally executed in connection with the Company’s IPO; (c) Vikasati Partners gave to Purchaser the irrevocable right to vote the shares retained by it on its behalf and the Prior Sponsors agreed to take certain other actions on its behalf with respect to certain matters; and (d) the Prior Sponsors agreed to cancel an aggregate of 11,700,000 private placement warrants purchased by CEMAC Sponsor LP at the time of the IPO.
Effective as of August 14, 2025, our Board of Directors dismissed Marcum LLP (“Marcum”) as our independent registered public accounting firm. Effective as of August 15, 2025, our Board of Directors approved the appointment of Aloba, Awomolo & Partners (“Aloba”) as our independent registered public accounting firm. Marcum’s audit reports on our financial statements for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principle, except for a paragraph relating to substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. During the two most recent fiscal years ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 and the subsequent interim period through August 14, 2025, there were no disagreements or reportable events between us and Marcum, except that, as previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023, we identified a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting related to the accounting for complex financial instruments and the restatement of previously issued financial statement

On August 14, 2025, Valleypark Road, LLC (“Valleypark”) agreed to loan to us up to an aggregate of $1,000,000 for working capital purposes pursuant to a non-interest bearing promissory note (the “Note”) payable upon the consummation of a business combination. Upon consummation of a business combination, Valleypark will have the option, but not the obligation, to convert the principal balance of the Note, in whole or in part, into warrants, with each warrant entitling the holder to purchase one Class A ordinary share at a conversion price of $1.50 per share, which warrants will be identical to the private placement warrants sold concurrently with our initial public offering. If we do not consummate a business combination, the Note will not be repaid and all amounts owed under the Note will be forgiven, except to the extent we have funds available outside the Trust Account.
During the nine months ended December 31, 2025, the Company recorded the waiver and forgiveness of certain liabilities by its former sponsor and related parties in connection with the previously disclosed transition to a new sponsor. As part of this transition, the former sponsor waived and forgave amounts due to related parties, cancelled private placement warrants, waived notes payable, and forgave a related party note. These items were recorded as capital contributions and resulted in a reduction of the Company’s shareholders’ deficit. The decrease in shareholders’ deficit was partially offset by the net loss incurred during the period and accretion related to redeemable shares.
Recent Developments
On April 19, 2023, pursuant to the Financial Side Letter, Lexasure agreed to loan us the Lexasure Loan up to a maximum of $600,000. The Lexasure Loan was unsecured and interest free. In connection with the Lexasure Loan, at the closing of the Lexasure Business Combination (or in the event of an Alternative Closing), the Sponsor had agreed to transfer a number of Ordinary Shares to Lexasure or its designee equal to (x) the amount of the Lexasure Loan that is used by us and not returned to Lexasure at or prior to the closing of the Lexasure Business Combination or Alternative Closing (less any amounts applied pursuant to the termination fee provision of the Lexasure Business Combination Agreement), divided by (y) $10.00 per share. Under the Financial Side Letter, the Lexasure Loan was intended to be repaid at the closing of the Lexasure Business Combination. In the event the Lexasure Business Combination Agreement was terminated, the Lexasure Loan was to be cancelled and no amounts would be owed by the Company, provided that any amounts advanced by Lexasure would reduce the amounts payable by Lexasure pursuant to the termination fee provision of the Lexasure Business Combination Agreement.
On May 15, 2023, May 18, 2023 and May 22, 2023, we entered into the Extension Non-Redemption Agreements with the Sponsor and the NRA Holders in exchange for the NRA Holders agreeing either not to request redemption, or to reverse any previously submitted redemption demand with respect to an aggregate of 4,399,737 Class A Ordinary Shares sold in our Initial Public Offering in connection with the 2023 Extraordinary Meeting. In consideration of the foregoing agreement, immediately prior to, and substantially concurrently with, the closing of an Initial Business Combination, (i) the Sponsor (or its designees) would surrender and forfeit to us, for no consideration, an aggregate of 1,099,935 NRA Forfeited Shares and (ii) we would issue to the NRA Holders a number of Class A Ordinary Shares equal to the NRA Forfeited Shares.
On May 23, 2023, we held the 2023 Extraordinary Meeting at which our shareholders approved, among other things, an amendment to our Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association to extend the date by which we must consummate an Initial Business Combination to March 3, 2024, and to permit our Board, in its sole discretion, to elect to wind up our operations on an earlier date than March 3, 2024. In connection with the vote to approve the Extension, the holders of 18,751,603 Class A Ordinary Shares properly exercised their right to redeem their shares for cash at a redemption price of approximately $10.51 per share, for an aggregate redemption amount of approximately $197,192,733.57, in connection with the 2023 Extraordinary Meeting. As a result of the approvals at the 2023 Extraordinary Meeting, we deposited $50,000 per month, or portion thereof, as required to complete an Initial Business Combination, for up to an aggregate of $450,000, which was deposited into the Trust account.

On May 23, 2023, we issued an aggregate of 5,749,999 Class A Ordinary Shares to the Sponsor, upon the conversion of an equal number of Class B Ordinary Shares held by the Sponsor in the Founder Conversion. The 5,749,999 Class A Ordinary Shares issued in connection with the Founder Conversion are subject to the same restrictions as applied to the Class B Ordinary Shares before the Founder Conversion, including, among others, certain transfer restrictions, waiver of redemption rights and the obligation to vote in favor of an Initial Business Combination as described in the IPO Prospectus. Following the Founder Conversion and the redemptions in connection with the Extension, there were 9,998,396 Class A Ordinary Shares issued and outstanding and one Class B Ordinary Share issued and outstanding. As a result of the Founder Conversion and the redemptions in connection with the Extension, the Sponsor held 57.5% of the outstanding Ordinary Shares as of July 14, 2023. This percentage reflects ownership immediately following the Founder Conversion and the 2023 Extension redemptions and does not reflect subsequent redemptions or sponsor transfers
On February 29, 2024, we held another extraordinary general meeting of shareholders at which our shareholders approved, by special resolution, the proposal to amend and restate the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association to further extend the date by which we must (1) consummate our Business Combination from March 3, 2024 to March 3, 2025, (2) cease our operations except for the purpose of winding up if we fail to complete such Business Combination, and (3) redeem all of the Class A ordinary shares included as part of the Units sold in the Public Offering (the “Second Extension”). In connection with the Second Extension, shareholders holding 3,036,666 Class A Ordinary Shares exercised their right to redeem such shares at a per share redemption price of $11.07. As a result, approximately $33,616,850 was removed from our Trust Account to pay such holders.
On April 19, 2024, CEMAC Sponsor LP entered into a securities purchase agreement with Vikasati Partners, pursuant to which, among other things, Vikasati would purchase (i) one Class B ordinary share of the Company, (ii) 3,925,000 Class A ordinary shares of the Company and (iii) 7,605,000 private placement warrants of the Company from CEMAC Sponsor LP, the existing directors and officers of the Company would resign, and new directors and officers designated by Vikasati Partners would be appointed. On April 25, 2024, the parties closed the transactions contemplated by the securities purchase agreement. Effective upon the closing on April 25, 2024, the Company’s then-existing directors and officers resigned and new directors and officers designated by Vikasati Partners were appointed.
On June 10, 2024, we received a notice from the Listing Qualifications Department (the “Staff”) of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) indicating that, as we were not able to complete a business combination within 36 months of the effectiveness of its IPO registration statement, or March 5, 2024, as required under Nasdaq Listing Rule IM-5101-2 (the “Rule”), we did not comply with the Rule and our securities were subject to delisting. In that regard, the Staff determined that our securities would be delisted from trading on Nasdaq and suspended at the opening of business on June 12, 2024. The Notice indicated that we had the right to appeal the Staff’s determination to a hearings panel. However, pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule5815(c)(1)(H), in the case of a company whose business plan is to complete one or more acquisitions, such as the Company, where the Notice is based on a failure to satisfy the requirement of the Rule to consummate a business combination within 36 months, the panel may only reverse the delisting decision where there has been a factual error applying the Rule. Based on the foregoing, we decided not to appeal the suspension.
On February 28, 2025, we held another extraordinary general meeting of shareholders at which our shareholders approved, by special resolution, the proposal to amend and restate the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association to further extend the date by which we must (1) consummate our Business Combination from March 3, 2025 to March 3, 2026, (2) cease our operations except for the purpose of winding up if we fail to complete such Business Combination, and (3) redeem all of the Class A ordinary shares included as part of the Units sold in the Public Offering (the “Third Extension”). In connection with the Third Extension, shareholders holding 1,066,745 Class A Ordinary Shares exercised their right to redeem such shares at a per share redemption price of approximately $10.91. As a result, approximately $11.64 million was removed from our Trust Account to pay such holders. The Company changed its name from Capitalworks Emerging Markets Acquisition Corp to Piermont Valley Acquisition Corp.

Results of Operations
For the three months ended December 31, 2025, we had a net loss of $229,481 which consisted of earnings on cash (investments) held in trust of $23,660, Change in fair value of warrant liability by $234,000 and offset by general and administrative costs of $19,167.
For the three months ended December 31, 2024, we had a net loss of $33,638 which consisted of earnings on cash (investments) held in trust of $135,007, Change in fair value of warrant liability by $99,830 and offset by general and administrative costs of $68,815.
For the Nine months ended December 31, 2025, we had a net loss of $ 1,234,629 which consisted of earnings on cash (investments) held in trust of $34,014, dividend income of 25,292, Forgiveness of Debt of $76,984, Change in fair value of warrant liability by $1,235,244 offset by general and administrative costs of $135,699.
For the Nine months ended December 31, 2024, we had a net income of $775,362 which consisted of earnings on cash (investments) held in trust of $444,095, Change in fair value of warrant liability by $628,057 and offset by general and administrative costs of $296,790.
Liquidity and Capital Resources; Going Concern
As of December 31, 2025, we had $53,174 in cash and a working capital deficit of $180,537.
In order to finance transaction costs in connection with an Initial Business Combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor, or certain of our officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan us Working Capital Loans as may be required. Such Working Capital Loans would be evidenced by promissory notes. The Working Capital Loans may be repaid upon completion of an Initial Business Combination, without interest, or, at the lender’s discretion, up to $1,500,000 of the Working Capital Loans may be converted upon completion of an Initial Business Combination into warrants at a price of $1.00 per warrant. Such warrants would be identical to the Private Placement Warrants. In the event that an Initial Business Combination does not close, we may use a portion of proceeds held outside the Trust Account to repay the Working Capital Loans, but no proceeds held in the Trust Account would be used to repay the Working Capital Loans. On February 1, 2023, we executed the WCL Agreement, a Working Capital Loan pursuant to which the Sponsor agreed to loan us funds up to $1,500,000. As of December 31, 2025, the Company had no outstanding liability under the Working Capital Loan, as the outstanding balance was waived and forgiven by the former sponsor in connection with the sponsor transition.
For the nine months ended December 31, 2025, net cash used in operating activities was $55,460 which was due to non-cash adjustments to net income related to the change in fair value of the derivative warrant liability of $1,235,244 and interest income on investments held in the Trust Account of $34,014, Divided income of $25,292, partially offset by net loss of $1,234,629, changes in operating assets and liabilities of $396,837 and Sponsor waived liabilities of $400,068.
For the nine months ended December 31, 2024, net cash used in operating activities was $209,380 which was due to non-cash adjustments to net income related to the change in fair value of the derivative warrant liability of $628,057 and interest income on investments held in the Trust Account of $444,095, partially offset by net income of $775,362 and changes in operating assets and liabilities of $87,410.

For the nine months ended December 31, 2025, net cash provided by financing activities was $107,023 due to proceeds from a related party advances.
For the nine months ended December 31, 2024, net cash provided by financing activities was $47,560 due to proceeds from a related party advances.
Based on the foregoing, it is possible that $53,174 cash held outside the Trust Account on December 31, 2025 might not be sufficient to allow us to operate for at least 12 months from the date of this Report, assuming that an Initial Business Combination is not consummated during that time. Until consummation of the Initial Business Combination, we have used and may continue to use these funds to pay existing accounts payable, identify and evaluate prospective Initial Business Combination candidates, perform due diligence on prospective target businesses, pay for travel expenditures, select the target business to merge with or acquire, and structure, negotiate and consummate the Initial Business Combination.
We can raise additional capital through Working Capital Loans from the Sponsor, or an affiliate of the Sponsor, or certain of our officers and directors, or through loans from third parties. If we are unable to raise additional capital, we may be required to take additional measures to conserve liquidity, which could include, but not necessarily be limited to, curtailing operations, suspending the pursuit of our business plan, and reducing overhead expenses. We cannot provide assurance that new financing will be available to us on commercially acceptable terms, if at all. These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time, which is considered to be one year from the issuance date of these financial statements.
Going Concern Consideration
As of December 31, 2025, the Company had $53,174 in cash and a working capital deficit of $180,537. Further, the Company has incurred and expects to continue to incur significant costs in pursuit of its financing and acquisition plans. In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) Topic 2014-15, “Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern,” the Company’s management has determined that these liquidity risks, as well as if the Company is unsuccessful in consummating an initial Business Combination within the Combination Period, the requirement that the Company cease all operations, redeem the Public Shares and thereafter liquidate and dissolve raises substantial doubt about the ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. The Company’s management has determined that the Company does not have funds that are sufficient to fund the working capital needs of the Company until the consummation of an initial Business Combination or the winding up of the Company as stipulated in the Charter. The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”), which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern.
Commitments and Contingencies
Registration Rights
The holders of the Founder Shares and warrants that may be issued upon conversion of Working Capital Loans or Extension Loan (and any shares of ordinary shares issuable upon the exercise of the warrants issued upon conversion of the Working Capital Loans or Extension Loan and upon conversion of the Founder Shares) are entitled to registration rights pursuant to a registration rights agreement requiring the Company to register such securities for resale (in the case of the Founder Shares, only after conversion to Class A ordinary shares). The holders of these securities are 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.

Underwriting Agreement
The Company granted the underwriters a 45-day option from the date of Initial Public Offering to purchase up to 3,000,000 additional Units to cover over-allotments, if any, at the Initial Public Offering price less the underwriting discounts and commissions. On December 3, 2021, the underwriters purchased an additional 3,000,000 Units pursuant to the full exercise of the over-allotment option. The Units were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per Unit, generating additional gross proceeds to the Company of $30,000,000.
In connection with the sponsor change transaction, the Company received waivers from the underwriters of the deferred underwriting fees and related rights. Accordingly, no deferred underwriting fees remain payable.
Forward Purchase Agreement
The Company entered into a Forward Purchase Agreement, as amended (the “Forward Purchase Agreement”) with Camber Base, LLC (“Camber”) pursuant to which Camber, or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates, may, at the sole written election of Camber, purchase up to $20.0 million units (the “Forward Purchase Units”), for $10.00 per Forward Purchase Unit, in a private placement that would have closed substantially concurrently with the closing of the Business Combination.
In connection with the sponsor change transaction, the Forward Purchase Agreement was terminated, and neither party has any further obligations thereunder.
Vendor Agreements
As of December 31, 2025, the Company had incurred unpaid legal fees of $7,128 which are included in accrued expenses on the accompanying balance sheets.
Consulting Agreements
On November 27, 2022, the Company entered into an agreement with a transactional and strategic advisory firm (the “First Strategic Advisor”) for advisory services in connection with a potential Business Combination. Pursuant to this agreement, the Company would have been required to pay certain fees upon the consummation of a Business Combination.
In connection with the sponsor change transaction, the consulting agreement with the First Strategic Advisor was terminated, and no amounts are payable thereunder.
On February 1, 2023, the Company entered into a separate agreement with another transactional and strategic advisory firm (the “Second Strategic Advisor”) to provide consulting, advisory and related services in connection with a potential Business Combination.
In connection with the sponsor change transaction, the consulting agreement with the Second Strategic Advisor was terminated, and no shares were issued or are issuable pursuant to the agreement.

Non-Redemption Agreements
The Company initially had until March 3, 2023 to consummate a Business Combination, with an automatic three-month extension if the Company signed a definitive agreement with respect to the Business Combination within such 15-month period, as described in the final prospectus for the Initial Public Offering, filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(4) with the SEC on December 2, 2021 (File No. 333-260513) (the “IPO Prospectus”).
In February 2023, prior to signing the Lexausre Business Combination Agreement, the Company prepared to hold an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders to, among other things, seek an extension of the time it had to consummate a Business Combination (the “March 2023 Meeting”). On February 27, 2023, in connection with the March 2023 Meeting, the Company and CEMAC Sponsor LP, entered into non-redemption agreements (the “Terminated Non-Redemption Agreements”) with certain unaffiliated third parties in exchange for such third parties agreeing not to redeem up to an aggregate of 1,600,000 Class A ordinary shares of the Company sold in its Initial Public Offering (“Non-Redeemed Shares”). In exchange for the foregoing commitments not to redeem such Non-Redeemed Shares, CEMAC Sponsor LP, as consideration for entering into the Terminated Non-Redemption Agreements, transferred to such third parties an aggregate of 28,000 Class B ordinary shares, which will be retained by such parties under all circumstances.
Upon the execution of the Lexasure Business Combination Agreement, the Company received the automatic three-month extension of the time to consummate the Business Combination until June 3, 2023. Consequently, the March 2023 Meeting was postponed indefinitely and the Terminated Non-Redemption Agreements automatically terminated per the terms of such agreements.
On May 18, 2023 and May 22, 2023, the Company entered into non-redemption agreements with the NRA Holders in exchange for the NRA Holders agreeing either not to request redemption, or to reverse any previously submitted redemption demand with respect to an aggregate of 4,399,737 Class A ordinary shares sold in the Initial Public Offering in connection with the 2023 Extraordinary Meeting. In consideration of the foregoing agreement, immediately prior to, and substantially concurrently with, the closing of a Business Combination, (i) the Sponsor (or its designees) will surrender and forfeit to the Company, for no consideration, an aggregate of 1,099,935 NRA Forfeited Shares and (ii) the Company shall issue to the NRA Holders a number of Class A ordinary shares equal to the NRA Forfeited Shares.
The Lexasure Business Combination Agreement was terminated, and no Business Combination was consummated. Accordingly, the forfeiture and issuance provisions described above were not triggered, and no shares were surrendered, forfeited or issued pursuant to these non-redemption agreements.
Critical Accounting Estimates and Policies
This “Item 2 – Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” based on the financial statements and the notes thereto contained elsewhere in this Report, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of the financial statements and the notes thereto contained elsewhere in this Report requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities in our financial statements. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and judgments, including those related to fair value of financial instruments and accrued expenses. We base our estimates on historical experience, known trends and events and various other factors that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We have identified the following as its critical accounting policies:
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2023-09 Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (“ASU 2023-09”). This update requires companies to disclose specific categories in the income tax rate reconciliation and requires additional information for certain reconciling items. For public business entities, ASU 2023-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. We will adopt the standards required under ASU 2023-09 as of January 1, 2025. We are currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2023-09 on our financial statements.
We do not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncement, if currently adopted,

| Table of Contents |
Inflation
We do not believe that inflation had a material impact on our business or operating results during the period presented.
JOBS Act
The JOBS Act contains provisions that, among other things, relax certain reporting requirements for qualifying public companies. We qualify as an “emerging growth company” and under the JOBS Act are allowed to comply with new or revised accounting pronouncements based on the effective date for private (not publicly traded) companies. We are electing 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, the Financial Statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with new or revised accounting pronouncements as of public company effective dates.
Additionally, we are in the process of evaluating the benefits of relying on the other reduced reporting requirements provided by the JOBS Act. Subject to certain conditions set forth in the JOBS Act, if, as an “emerging growth company,” we choose to rely on such exemptions we may not be 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 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, (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 Public Company Accounting Oversight Board 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 chief executive officer’s compensation to median employee compensation. These exemptions will apply for a period of five years from the completion of our Public Offering or until we are no longer an “emerging growth company,” whichever is earlier.
Item 3 – Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and are not required to provide the information otherwise required under this item.
Item 4 – Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure 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, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
As required by Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act, our Chief Executive Officer carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2025. Based upon their evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15 (e) and 15d-15 (e) under the Exchange Act) were not effective due solely to the material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting related to the Company’s lack of qualified SEC reporting professional. As a result, we performed additional analysis as deemed necessary to ensure that our financial statements were prepared in accordance with US GAAP. Accordingly, management believes that the financial statements included in this Form 10-Q present fairly, in all material respects, our financial position, result of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. Management intends to continue implement remediation steps to improve our disclosure controls and procedures and our internal control over financial reporting. Specifically, we intend to expand and improve our review process for complex securities and related accounting standards. We have improved this process by enhancing access to accounting literature, identification of third-party professionals with whom to consult regarding complex accounting applications and consideration of additional staff with the requisite experience and training to supplement existing accounting professionals.
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.
