Liquidity and Capital Resources
On June 25, 2021, we consummated an Initial Public Offering of 15,000,000 Units (the "Units”) generating gross proceeds to the Company of $150,000,000. Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, we completed the private sale of 3,225,000 warrants to Coliseum Acquisition Sponsor LLC at a purchase price of $1.50 per warrant (the "Private Placement Warrants"), generating gross proceeds of $4,837,500.
For the period from February 5, 2021 (inception) through June 30, 2021, net cash used in operating activities was $1,060,826, which was due to the change in fair value of warrant liabilities of $854,750, unrealized gain on investments held in the Trust Account of $14, and changes in working capital of $1,001,000, partially offset by net income of $387,898 and expensed offering costs added back to net income of $407,040.
For the period from February 5, 2021 (inception) through June 30, 2021, net cash used in investing activities was $150,000,000, which was the result of the amount of net proceeds from the Initial Public Offering and the private placement sale of warrants being deposited to the Trust Account.
Net cash provided by financing activities for the period from February 5, 2021 (inception) through June 30, 2021 of $152,070,885 was comprised of $147,750,000 from the issuance of Units in the Initial Public Offering net of underwriter's discount paid, $4,837,500 in proceeds from the issuance of warrants in a private placement to our Sponsor and proceeds from the issuance of a promissory note to our Sponsor of $187,401, offset by the payment of $516,615 for offering costs associated with the Initial Public Offering and repayment of the outstanding balance on the promissory note to our Sponsor of $187,401.
As of June 30, 2021, we had cash of $1,010,059 held outside the trust account. We intend to use the funds held outside the trust account primarily to identify and evaluate target businesses, perform business due diligence on prospective target businesses, travel to and from the offices, plants or similar locations of prospective target businesses or their representatives or owners, review corporate documents and material agreements of prospective target businesses, and structure, negotiate and complete a business combination.
We do not believe we will need to raise additional funds following the Initial Public Offering in order to meet the expenditures required for operating our business prior to our initial business combination. However, if our estimates of the costs of identifying a target business, undertaking in-depth due diligence and negotiating an initial business combination are less than the actual amount necessary to do so, we may have insufficient funds available to operate our business prior to our initial business combination. Moreover, we may need to obtain additional financing either to complete our business combination or because we become obligated to redeem a significant number of public shares upon completion of our business combination, in which case we may issue additional securities or incur debt in connection with such business combination. In addition, we intend to target businesses larger than we could acquire with the net proceeds of our Initial Public Offering and the sale of the private placement warrants and may as a result be required to seek additional financing to complete such proposed initial business combination. Subject to compliance with applicable securities laws, we would only complete such financing simultaneously with the completion of our business combination. If we are unable to complete our initial business combination because we do not have sufficient funds available to us, we will be forced to cease operations and liquidate the trust account. In addition, following our business combination, if cash on hand is insufficient, we may need to obtain additional financing in order to meet our obligations.
In order to fund working capital deficiencies or finance transaction costs in connection with an intended initial business combination, our sponsor or an affiliate of our sponsor or certain of our directors and officers may, but are not obligated to, loan us funds as may be required (“Working Capital Loans”). If we complete our initial business combination, we may repay such loaned amounts out of the proceeds of the trust account released to us. Otherwise, such loans may be repaid only out of funds held outside the trust account. In the event that our initial business combination does not close, we may use a portion of the working capital held outside the trust account to repay such loaned amounts but no proceeds from our trust account would be used to repay such loaned amounts. Up to $1,500,000 of such loans may be convertible into warrants at a price of $1.50 per warrant at the option of the lender. The warrants would be identical to the Private Placement Warrants issued to our sponsor. The terms of such loans, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such loans. We do not expect to seek loans from parties other than our sponsor or an affiliate of our sponsor as we do not believe third parties will be willing to loan such funds and provide a waiver against any and all rights to seek access to funds in our trust account.
