NOTE 1. DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS

 

Atlantic Alliance Partnership Corp. (the “Company”) is a blank check company incorporated in the British Virgin Islands on January 14, 2015. The Company was formed for the purpose of acquiring, engaging in a share exchange, share reconstruction and amalgamation, contractual control arrangement with, purchasing all or substantially all of the assets of, or engaging in any other similar initial business combination with one or more businesses or entities (“Business Combination”).

 

All activity through March 31, 2020 related to the Company’s formation, its initial public offering (“Initial Public Offering”) (described below) and identifying a target company for a Business Combination.

 

The registration statement for the Company’s Initial Public Offering was declared effective on April 28, 2015. On May 4, 2015, the Company consummated the Initial Public Offering of 7,687,500 ordinary shares, no par value per share (“Public Shares”), which included a partial exercise by the underwriters of their over-allotment option of 187,500 ordinary shares, at $10.00 per Public Share, generating gross proceeds of $76,875,000.

 

Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the sale of 778,438 ordinary shares (the “Private Placement Shares”) at a price of $10.00 per share in a private placement to the Company’s sponsor, AAP Sponsor (PTC) Corp., a British Virgin Islands company (“AAP Sponsor”), generating gross proceeds of $7,784,380, which is described in Note 4.

 

Transaction costs amounted to $5,907,302, consisting of $2,690,625 of underwriting fees, $2,690,625 of deferred underwriting fees (which were waived by the underwriter in the prior year) and $526,052 of Initial Public Offering costs.

 

Following the closing of the Initial Public Offering on May 4, 2015, an amount of $80,718,750 ($10.50 per Public Share) from the net proceeds of the sale of the Public Shares in the Initial Public Offering and the Private Placement Shares was placed in a trust account (“Trust Account”) and invested in U.S. government securities, within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), with a maturity of 180 days or less or in any open-ended investment company that holds itself out as a money market fund selected by the Company meeting the conditions of paragraphs (c)(2), (c)(3) and (c)(4) of Rule 2a-7 of the 1940 Act, as determined by the Company, until the earlier of: (i) the consummation of a Business Combination or (ii) the distribution of the Trust Account, as described below.

 

On November 3, 2017, due to the Company’s inability to consummate a Business Combination within the time period required by its Amended Memorandum and Articles of Association, the Company redeemed all of its outstanding Public Shares. The number of shares redeemed was 710,542 and the Company distributed $7,519,635, or approximately $10.58 per share to redeeming shareholders.

  

Nasdaq Delisting

 

On March 29, 2017, the Company received a written notice from the Listing Qualifications Department of Nasdaq indicating that the staff of Nasdaq had determined that the Company did not comply with Listing Rule 5550(a)(3) (the “Minimum Holders Rule”), which requires the Company to have at least 300 public holders of its ordinary shares for continued listing on Nasdaq.  Subsequently, upon the Company’s request, the Nasdaq granted the Company an extension to comply with the Minimum Holders Rule until September 25, 2017.

 

On September 26, 2017, the Company received a written notice (the “Notice”) from Nasdaq indicating that the Company did not satisfy the terms of the extension and accordingly, the staff of Nasdaq had initiated procedures to delist the Company’s securities from The Nasdaq Stock Market. As a result, the trading of the Company’s ordinary shares was suspended as of October 5, 2017 and the Company’s securities were subsequently removed from listing and registration on The Nasdaq Stock Market and transitioned to the over-the-counter markets operated by OTC Markets Group.

 

Liquidity and Going Concern

 

As of March 31, 2020, the Company had $13,894 in its operating bank accounts and a working capital deficit of $322,460.

 

The Company is currently considering a search for a potential target company; however, as a result of the redemption of all of its outstanding Public Shares and the return of all funds held in the Trust Account, the Company continues to have a working capital deficit. The Company will need to raise additional capital through loans or additional investments from its shareholders, officers, directors, or third parties. However, the Company may not be able to obtain additional financing. If the Company is unable to raise additional capital, it 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 its business plan, and reducing overhead expenses. The Company cannot provide any assurance that new financing will be available to it on commercially acceptable terms, if at all. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued. These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recovery of the recorded assets or the classification of the liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Certain information or footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC for interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes necessary for a comprehensive presentation of financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of a normal recurring nature, which are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, operating results and cash flows for the periods presented.

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 as filed with the SEC on March 27, 2020, which contains the audited financial statements and notes thereto, together with Management’s Discussion and Analysis. The financial information as of December 31, 2019 is derived from the audited financial statements presented in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. The interim results for the three months ended March 31, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2020 or for any future interim periods.

 

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 (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 auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our 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 condensed financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires 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 financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.

 

Making estimates requires 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 financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.

Cash equivalents

 

The Company considers all short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. The Company did not have any cash equivalents as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

 

Loss per share

 

Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period. At March 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company did not have any dilutive securities and other contracts that could, potentially, be exercised or converted into ordinary shares and then share in the earnings of the Company. As a result, diluted loss per share is the same as basic loss per share for the periods presented.

 

Income taxes

 

ASC Topic 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’s management determined that the British Virgin Islands is the Company’s only major tax jurisdiction. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, there were no amounts accrued for interest and penalties. There were no unrecognized tax benefits as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019. 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 may be subject to potential examination by foreign taxing authorities in the areas of income taxes. These potential examinations may include questioning the timing and amount of deductions, the nexus of income among various tax jurisdictions and compliance with foreign tax laws. The Company’s management does not expect that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits will materially change over the next twelve months.

 

The Company’s tax provision is zero because the Company is organized in the British Virgin Islands with no connection to any other taxable jurisdiction. The Company is considered to be an exempted British Virgin Islands Company, and is presently not subject to income taxes or income tax filing requirements in the British Virgin Islands or the United States. 

 

Fair value of financial instruments

 

The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the accompanying condensed balance sheets, primarily due to their short-term nature.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s condensed financial statements.

 

NOTE 3. PRIVATE PLACEMENT

 

Simultaneously with the Initial Public Offering, AAP Sponsor purchased an aggregate of 778,438 Private Placement Shares at a purchase price of $10.00 per share from the Company in a private placement. The proceeds from the Private Placement Shares were added to the net proceeds from the Initial Public Offering held in the Trust Account and were used to fund the redemption of the Company’s Public Shares (subject to the requirements of applicable law).

NOTE 4. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

 

Founder Shares

 

On January 15, 2015, the Company issued 2,156,250 ordinary shares to the AAP Sponsor (the “founder shares”) for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000. The 2,156,250 founder shares included an aggregate of up to 281,250 shares subject to forfeiture by AAP Sponsor (or its permitted transferees) on a pro rata basis depending on the extent to which the underwriters’ over-allotment option was exercised. As a result of the underwriters’ election to exercise their over-allotment option to purchase 187,500 ordinary shares on May 4, 2015, 46,875 founder shares were no longer subject to forfeiture.

 

Related Party Advances

 

Through March 31, 2020, the Company has received an aggregate of $123,695 in advances, of which $37,500 was advanced during the three months ended Mach 31, 2020, from two of its directors to be used for working capital purposes. The advances are non-interest bearing, unsecured and due on demand. Advances amounting to $123,695 and $86,195 were outstanding as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.

 

NOTE 5. SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY

 

Preferred Shares - The Company is authorized to issue an unlimited number of no par value preferred shares, divided into five classes, Class A through Class E each with such designation, rights and preferences as may be determined by a resolution of the Company’s board of directors to amend the Amended Memorandum and Articles of Association to create such designations, rights and preferences. The Company has five classes of preferred shares to give the Company flexibility as to the terms on which each Class is issued. All shares of a single class must be issued with the same rights and obligations. Accordingly, starting with five classes of preferred shares will allow the Company to issue shares at different times on different terms. At March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, there are no preferred shares designated, issued or outstanding.

  

Ordinary Shares - The Company is authorized to issue an unlimited number of no par value ordinary shares. Holders of the Company’s ordinary shares are entitled to one vote for each share. At March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, there were 2,976,691 ordinary shares issued and outstanding.

 

NOTE 6. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

The Company evaluates subsequent events and transactions that occur after the balance sheet date up to the date that the financial statements were issued. Based upon this review, the Company did not identify subsequent events that would have required adjustment or disclosure in the condensed financial statements.

 

 

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

References in this report to “we,” “us” or the “Company” refer to Atlantic Alliance Partnership Corp. References to our “management” or our “management team” refer to our officers and directors, and references to the “AAP Sponsor” refer to AAP Sponsor (PTC) Corp. The following discussion and analysis of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto contained elsewhere in this report. Certain information contained in the discussion and analysis set forth below includes forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties.

 

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

 

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are not historical facts, and involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expected and projected. All statements, other than statements of historical fact included in this Form 10-Q including, without limitation, statements in this “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” regarding the Company’s financial position, business strategy and the plans and objectives of management for future operations, are forward-looking statements. Words such as “expect,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “estimate,” “seek” and variations and similar words and expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements relate to future events or future performance, but reflect management’s current beliefs, based on information currently available. A number of factors could cause actual events, performance or results to differ materially from the events, performance and results discussed in the forward-looking statements. For information identifying important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements, please refer to the Risk Factors section of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The Company’s securities filings can be accessed on the EDGAR section of the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov . Except as expressly required by applicable securities law, the Company disclaims any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

 

Overview

 

We are a blank check company incorporated on January 14, 2015 in the British Virgin Islands and formed for the purpose of acquiring, engaging in a share exchange, share reconstruction and amalgamation, contractual control arrangement with, purchasing all or substantially all of the assets of, or engaging in any other similar initial business combination with one or more businesses or entities.

 

We expect to continue to incur costs in the pursuit of our acquisition plans. We cannot assure you that our plans to raise additional capital, if needed, or to complete a business combination will be successful.

 

Results of Operations

 

As of March 31, 2020, our activity is focused on identifying a target company for a business combination.

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2020, we had a net loss of $28,474, which consisted of operating costs.

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2019, we had a net loss of $25,670, which consisted of operating costs. 

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

  

As of March 31, 2020, we had cash of $13,894 and accounts payable and accrued expenses of $212,659.

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2020, cash used in operating activities amounted to $25,078, resulting from a net loss of $28,474 and changes in our operating assets and liabilities of $3,396. 

  

For the three months ended March 31, 2019, cash used in operating activities amounted to $5,880, resulting from a net loss of $25,670 and changes in our operating assets and liabilities of $19,790. 

 

We are currently considering a search for a potential target company; however, we continue to have a working capital deficit. We will need to raise additional capital through loans or additional investments our shareholders, officers, directors, or third parties. However, we may not be able to obtain additional financing. 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 any 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 within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued.

 

 

Off-balance sheet financing arrangements

 

We have no obligations, assets or liabilities which would be considered off-balance sheet arrangements. We have not entered into any off-balance sheet financing arrangements, established any special purpose entities, guaranteed any debt or commitments of other entities, or purchased any non-financial assets.

 

Contractual obligations

 

We do not have any long-term debt, capital lease obligations, operating lease obligations or long-term liabilities.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

The preparation of condensed financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and income and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. We have not identified any critical accounting policies.

 

Recent accounting pronouncements

 

Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s condensed financial statements.

 

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

 

Due to the short-term nature of our investments, we believe there is no associated material exposure to interest rate risk.

 

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

As required by Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2020. Based upon their evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15 (e) and 15d-15 (e) under the Exchange Act) were effective.

 

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

During the most recently completed fiscal quarter, there has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
