NOTE 1 — DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS

K2 Capital Acquisition Corporation (the “Company”) is a blank check company incorporated as a Cayman Islands exempted company on August 1, 2025. The Company was incorporated for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses (the “Business Combination”).

The Company is not limited to a particular industry or geographic region for purposes of consummating a Business Combination. The Company is an early-stage and emerging growth company; and, as such, the Company is subject to all of the risks associated with early-stage and emerging growth companies.

As of December 31, 2025, the Company had not commenced any operations. All activity for the period from August 1, 2025 (inception) through December 31, 2025 relates to the Company’s formation and the initial public offering (“Initial Public Offering”), 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 will generate non-operating income in the form of interest or dividend income from the proceeds derived from the Initial Public Offering. The Company has selected December 31 as its fiscal year end.

The registration statement for the Company’s Initial Public Offering was declared effective on January 28, 2026. On January 30, 2026, the Company consummated the Initial Public Offering of 13,800,000 units at $10.00 per unit (the “Units” and, with respect to the Class A ordinary shares included in the Units sold, the “Public Shares”) which is discussed in Note 3, which includes the full exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option of 1,800,000 Units, generating gross proceeds of $138,000,000. Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the sale of 326,875 units (the “Private Placement Units”) in a private placement to K2 Capital Sponsor LLC (the “Sponsor”), at a price of $8.00 per Private Placement Unit, generating gross proceeds of $2,615,000, of which $1,250,000 had not been received at the closing of the Initial Public Offering. Subsequently, on February 3, 2026, the Company received the share subscription receivable from the Sponsor, net of partial repayment of the promissory note – related party.

Transaction costs amounted to $1,250,794, consisting of $690,000 of cash underwriting fees and $560,794 of other offering costs.

The Company’s management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and the sale of the Private Placement Units, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be 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 80% of the net assets held in the Trust Account (as defined below) (excluding taxes payable on the interest income earned on the Trust Account). The Company will only complete a Business Combination if the post-Business Combination company owns or acquires 50% or more of the issued and outstanding voting securities of the target or otherwise acquires a controlling interest in the target business sufficient for it not to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”). There is no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully effect a Business Combination.

Following the closing of the Initial Public Offering on January 30, 2026, an amount of $138,000,000 ($10.00 per Unit) from the net proceeds of the sale of the Units, and a portion of the net proceeds from the sale of the Private Placement Units, was held in a U.S.-based trust account (the “Trust Account”), with Equiniti Trust Company, LLC, acting as trustee. The funds may only be invested in U.S. government securities, within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act, with a maturity of 185 days or less, or in any open-ended investment company that holds itself out as a money market fund investing solely in U.S. Treasuries and meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act, as determined by the Company, until the earlier of (i) the completion of a Business Combination and (ii) the distribution of the funds in the Trust Account to the Company’s shareholders, as described below.

The Company will provide the holders of the outstanding Public Shares (the “Public Shareholders”) with the opportunity to redeem, regardless of whether they abstain, vote for, or vote against, the initial Business Combination, all or a portion of their Public Shares upon the completion of initial Business Combination at a per share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account calculated as of two business days prior to the consummation of the initial Business Combination, including interest, divided by the number of then outstanding Public Shares, subject to the limitations. Notwithstanding the foregoing redemption rights, if the Company seeks shareholders approval of its initial Business Combination and the Company does not conduct redemptions in connection with its initial Business Combination pursuant to the tender offer rules, the Company’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association (the “Articles”) will provide that a Public Shareholder, together with any affiliate of such shareholder or any other person with whom such shareholder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined under Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended), is restricted from redeeming its shares with respect to more than an aggregate of 15% of the shares to be sold in the Initial Public Offering, without the Company’s prior consent. There will be no redemption rights upon the completion of a Business Combination with respect to the Private Placement Units. The Public Shares subject to redemption are 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.”

If the Company seeks shareholder approval of the Business Combination, the Company will proceed with a Business Combination only if the Company receives approval by way of an ordinary resolution under Cayman Islands law approving a Business Combination, which requires a resolution be passed by a majority of the holders of the Class A ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 (the “Class A ordinary shares”) and the Class B ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 (the “Class B ordinary shares,” and together with the Class A ordinary shares, the “ordinary shares”) as, being entitled to do so, vote in person or by proxy 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 under applicable law or stock exchange listing requirements and the Company does not decide to hold a shareholder vote for business or other reasons, the Company will, pursuant to its Articles, conduct the redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (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 Sponsor has agreed to vote its Founder Shares (as defined in Note 5) and any Public Shares purchased during or after the Initial Public Offering 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 and waive its redemption rights with respect to any such shares in connection with a shareholder vote to approve 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 the proposed Business Combination.

The initial shareholders 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 Articles (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 Completion Window (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.

If the Company has not completed a Business Combination within 18 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering (the “Completion Window”), 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 outstanding 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, if any (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then issued and outstanding Public Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish the rights of the Public Shareholders as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidating distributions, if any), and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the Company’s remaining Public Shareholders and its Board of Directors, liquidate and dissolve, subject in each case to the Company’s obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. There will be no redemption rights or liquidating distributions with respect to the Company’s Rights, which will expire worthless if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Completion Window.

The initial shareholders have agreed to waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to the Founder Shares it will receive if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Completion Window. However, if the initial shareholders or any of their respective affiliates acquire Public Shares in or after the Initial Public Offering, such Public Shares will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Completion Window. 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 ($10.00).

In order to protect the amounts held in the Trust Account, the Sponsor has agreed that it 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 (i) $10.00 per Public Share and (ii) the actual amount per Public Share held in the Trust Account as of the date of the liquidation of the Trust Account, if less than $10.00 per Public Share due to reductions in the value of the trust assets, less taxes payable, provided that such liability will not apply to any claims by a third party or prospective target business who executed a waiver of any and all rights to the monies held in the Trust Account (whether or not such waiver is enforceable) nor will it apply to any claims under the Company’s indemnity of the underwriter of our initial public offering against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act. However, the Company has not asked the Sponsor to reserve for such indemnification obligations, nor has it independently verified whether the Sponsor has sufficient funds to satisfy its indemnity obligations, and the Company believes that the Sponsor’s only assets are securities of the Company. Therefore, the Company cannot assure that the Sponsor would be able to satisfy those obligations. As a result, if any such claims were successfully made against the Trust Account, the funds available for the Company’s initial Business Combination and redemptions could be reduced to less than $10.00 per Public Share. In such event, the Company may not be able to complete its initial Business Combination, and the Public Shareholders would receive such lesser amount per share in connection with any redemption of their Public Shares. None of the Company’s officers or directors will indemnify the Company for claims by third parties including, without limitation, claims by vendors and prospective target businesses.

Risks and Uncertainties

The United States and global markets are experiencing volatility and disruption following the geopolitical instability resulting from the ongoing Russia-Ukraine conflict, the Israel-Hamas conflict, the escalating military conflict between the United States, Israel and Iran, and other hostilities in the Middle East region and globally. In response to the ongoing Russia-Ukraine conflict, the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (“NATO”) deployed additional military forces to eastern Europe, and the United States, the United Kingdom, the European Union and other countries have announced various sanctions and restrictive actions against Russia, Belarus and related individuals and entities, including the removal of certain financial institutions from the Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication payment system. Certain countries, including the United States, have also provided and may continue to provide military aid or other assistance to Ukraine and to Israel, increasing geopolitical tensions among a number of nations.

In addition to the Russia-Ukraine conflict and the Israel-Hamas conflict, the geopolitical landscape has been significantly affected by the escalation of hostilities between the United States, Israel and Iran. Following prior exchanges of strikes between Israel and Iran in 2024 and a twelve-day conflict involving U.S. and Israeli strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities and military sites in June 2025, the United States and Israel launched a large-scale joint military operation against Iran beginning on February 28, 2026. The operation has targeted Iranian military infrastructure, nuclear program assets, senior government and military officials. Iran has responded with retaliatory missile and drone strikes against targets in Israel and U.S. military installations across the Persian Gulf region, including in Bahrain, Jordan, Kuwait and Qatar. This conflict represents a material escalation in regional instability, the full scope, duration and consequences of which remain highly uncertain.

The U.S.-Israel-Iran conflict has had immediate and substantial effects on global trade, energy markets and financial markets. Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps has effectively closed the Strait of Hormuz — through which approximately 20% of global seaborne oil trade transits — to commercial shipping, leading major container carriers and tanker operators to suspend transits and reroute vessels. Concurrently, Iran-backed Houthi forces in Yemen have announced a resumption of attacks on commercial shipping in the Red Sea and the Bab el-Mandeb Strait, creating a dual chokepoint crisis that has disrupted global shipping lanes. Major shipping companies have suspended operations through both maritime corridors and rerouted vessels around the Cape of Good Hope, significantly increasing transit times and freight costs and disrupting global supply chains. War risk insurance for the Strait of Hormuz has been withdrawn or repriced at prohibitive levels, and airspace closures across multiple Gulf states have grounded thousands of flights. Brent crude oil prices have surged, and analysts have projected prices could reach $100 per barrel or higher if supply disruptions persist. Global stock markets have experienced significant declines, with indices in Asia, Europe and the United States falling sharply, and safe-haven assets such as gold and U.S. Treasuries have seen increased demand. The conflict has also prompted heightened sanctions enforcement activity and new compliance risks across financial markets.

The invasion of Ukraine by Russia and the Israel-Hamas conflict and the resulting measures that have been taken, and could be taken in the future, by NATO, the United States, the United Kingdom, the European Union, Israel and its neighboring states and other countries have created global security concerns that could have a lasting impact on regional and global economies. Although the length and impact of the ongoing conflicts are highly unpredictable, they could lead to market disruptions, including significant volatility in commodity prices, credit and capital markets, as well as supply chain interruptions and increased cyberattacks against U.S. companies. Additionally, any resulting sanctions could adversely affect the global economy and financial markets and lead to instability and lack of liquidity in capital markets.

Furthermore, changes to policy implemented by the U.S. Congress, the Trump administration or any new administration have impacted and may in the future impact, among other things, the U.S. and global economy, international trade relations, unemployment, immigration, healthcare, taxation, the U.S. regulatory environment, inflation and other areas. For example, during the prior Trump administration, increased tariffs were implemented on goods imported into the U.S., particularly from China, Canada, and Mexico. On February 1, 2025, the U.S. imposed a 25% tariff on imports from Canada and Mexico, which were subsequently suspended for a period of one month, and a 10% additional tariff on imports from China. More recently on April 2, 2025, President Trump signed an executive order imposing a minimum 10 percent baseline tariff on all U.S. imports, with higher tariffs applied to imports from 57 specific countries. The baseline tariff rate became effective on April 5, while tariffs on imports from the 57 targeted nations, ranging from 11 to 50 percent, took effect on April 9. On the same day, President Trump announced a 90-day ‘pause’ on reciprocal tariffs for all but China, which continues to face tariffs as high as 145%. Historically, tariffs have led to increased trade and political tensions, between not only the U.S. and China, but also between the U.S. and other countries in the international community. In response to tariffs, other countries have implemented retaliatory tariffs on U.S. goods.

On July 4, 2025, President Trump signed into law the One Big Beautiful Bill Act. FASB ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes”, requires the effects of changes in tax laws to be recognized in the period in which the legislation is enacted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the new law. However, none of the tax provisions are expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

Any of the above mentioned factors, or any other negative impact on the global economy, capital markets or other geopolitical conditions resulting from the Russian invasion of Ukraine, the Israel-Hamas conflict, the U.S.-Israel-Iran conflict and other hostilities in the Middle East region and subsequent sanctions or related actions, and tariff on imports from foreign countries could adversely affect the Company’s search for an initial Business Combination and any target business with which the Company may ultimately consummate an initial Business Combination.
