Business Summary

Bluerock Acquisition Corp. (the "Company") is a blank check company, also known as a Special Purpose Acquisition Company (SPAC), incorporated in the Cayman Islands on July 11, 2025 . Its sole business objective is to effect a merger, amalgamation, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization, or similar business combination with one or more businesses (a "Business Combination") . The Company has not engaged in any operations or generated any revenue to date, and its assets consist almost entirely of cash, classifying it as a "shell company" under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 . The Company's strategy involves leveraging the capabilities of Bluerock's platform and its management team's extensive industry experience, built over three decades of institutional investing, operating, and investment banking . The Company intends to focus its sourcing efforts on companies at an inflection point in their growth trajectory that are seeking a strategic, long-term capital partner .

The core business model of Bluerock Acquisition Corp. is to identify and acquire a target business, thereby taking it public. The Company generates non-operating income primarily from interest earned on marketable securities held in its Trust Account . Its primary customer segments are not explicitly defined as it is a SPAC, but its "business strategy" section indicates a focus on partnering with incumbent management of target companies to drive growth, improve operations, and prepare the company for public ownership . The Company aims to be a differentiated partner by bringing institutional insight, strategic alignment, and a demonstrated ability to help growth companies scale successfully in the public arena .

The Company's financial structure is typical of a SPAC. On December 12, 2025, it consummated an Initial Public Offering (IPO) of 17,250,000 units at $10.00 per unit, generating gross proceeds of $172,500,000 . Each unit consists of one Class A Ordinary Share and one-third of one redeemable warrant . Simultaneously, it sold 4,500,000 Private Placement Warrants at $1.00 per warrant to its Sponsor and Cantor Fitzgerald & Co., generating gross proceeds of $4,500,000 . Of these, the Sponsor purchased 3,000,000 Private Placement Warrants and Cantor purchased 1,500,000 Private Placement Warrants . Following the IPO, $172,500,000 from the net proceeds was placed in a Trust Account, which is invested in U.S. government treasury obligations with a maturity of 185 days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions .

For the period from July 11, 2025 (inception) through December 31, 2025, the Company reported a net income of $89,649 . This net income was derived from interest earned on cash and marketable securities held in the Trust Account, amounting to $238,674 , partially offset by operating costs of $149,025 . As of December 31, 2025, the Company had cash of $693,561 and a working capital surplus of $701,777 . The cash and marketable securities held in the Trust Account totaled $172,738,674 . The Company incurred $10,960,469 in IPO-related costs, consisting of $3,000,000 in cash underwriting fees, $7,350,000 in deferred underwriting fees, and $610,469 in other costs. Basic and diluted net income per Class A ordinary share was $0.01 , and basic and diluted net income per Class B ordinary share was also $0.01 .

The Company's financial position as of December 31, 2025, shows total assets of $173,583,797 . Total liabilities amounted to $7,429,617 , which included accrued offering costs of $75,000 , accrued expenses of $4,617 , and a deferred underwriting fee of $7,350,000 . Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption were valued at $172,738,674 , representing 17,250,000 shares at a redemption value of $10.01 per share . The total shareholders' deficit was $(6,584,494) , with an accumulated deficit of $(6,585,069) .

During the reported period, the Company's significant operational developments primarily revolved around its IPO and organizational activities. The registration statement for its IPO became effective on December 10, 2025 , and the IPO closed on December 12, 2025 . The underwriters fully exercised their over-allotment option for 2,250,000 units . The Sponsor made a capital contribution of $25,000 for 7,666,667 Class B Ordinary Shares on July 23, 2025 , later surrendering 1,916,667 Founder Shares and transferring 60,000 Founder Shares to independent directors in November 2025 , and an additional 35,000 Founder Shares to an independent director on January 23, 2026 . The Company also entered into an Administrative Services and Indemnification Agreement with its Sponsor, agreeing to pay up to $20,000 per month for office space, secretarial, and administrative services for a maximum of twelve months during the Completion Window .

Business Outlook

Bluerock Acquisition Corp. intends to use substantially all of the funds held in the Trust Account, including any earnings (less taxes payable), to complete its Business Combination . The Company has a "Completion Window" of 24 months from the closing of its IPO to complete an initial Business Combination, or an earlier liquidation date as its board of directors may approve . If the Company's share capital or debt is used as consideration for a Business Combination, any remaining proceeds in the Trust Account will be utilized as working capital to finance the operations of the target business, make other acquisitions, and pursue growth strategies . The Company believes that the funds available outside the Trust Account, which were $693,561 as of December 31, 2025, will be sufficient to operate for at least the duration of the Completion Window .

The Company's business strategy is to identify companies with compelling growth potential, characterized by a history or potential for above-average growth, particularly in expanding or attractive end markets with favorable secular trends . It favors businesses with stable, recurring revenue streams or subscription-like models that provide visibility into future cash flows, high customer retention, and long-term contracts . The Company also seeks targets with experienced management teams, comparable public peers to validate valuation multiples, strong profitability and margins (or a clear path to robust earnings), favorable industry dynamics, and moderate leverage .

Operationally, the Company expects to incur significant costs in the pursuit of its acquisition plans . It does not expect to generate any operating revenues until after the completion of its Business Combination . The Company incurs expenses as a public company for legal, financial reporting, accounting, and auditing compliance, as well as for due diligence expenses . The Company's management team and Sponsor will ensure that any potential target understands it will transact exclusively with Bluerock Acquisition Corp. and no other SPAC sponsored by the management team .

In terms of capital allocation, the Sponsor, or certain officers and directors or their affiliates, may loan the Company funds up to $1,500,000 to finance transaction costs or working capital deficiencies, which may be convertible into Private Placement Warrants at $1.00 per warrant . The Company has not paid any cash dividends to date and does not intend to prior to the completion of an initial Business Combination . The payment of future dividends will depend on revenues, earnings, capital requirements, and financial conditions post-Business Combination, and may be limited by restrictive covenants from any incurred indebtedness .

The Company's ability to complete its initial Business Combination may be negatively impacted by general market conditions, volatility in capital and debt markets, and geopolitical events such as the Russia-Ukraine conflict and the Middle East and Southwest Asia conflicts . These factors could lead to market disruptions, volatility in commodity prices, credit and capital markets, supply chain interruptions, and increased cyber-attacks, making it more difficult to identify a target and consummate a Business Combination on acceptable terms . The Company also faces competition from other SPACs, private equity groups, and operating businesses for acquisition opportunities, many of which may have greater financial, technical, human, and other resources .

Risk Factors

The Company faces several material risks, including the fundamental risk of being a blank check company with no operating history or revenues, meaning there is no basis to evaluate its ability to achieve its business objective of completing an initial Business Combination . Geopolitical instability, such as the ongoing Russia-Ukraine conflict and the escalation of conflict in the Middle East and Southwest Asia, could materially adversely affect the Company's search for a Business Combination and the operations or financial condition of potential target companies . The Company may encounter significant competition from other entities, including other SPACs and private equity groups, for attractive target businesses, which could increase the cost of a Business Combination or lead to an inability to find a target . Regulatory changes, particularly the SEC's new SPAC Rules, may increase the costs and time needed to negotiate and complete an initial Business Combination and could constrain the circumstances under which it can be completed . There is a risk that the Company could be deemed an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, which would impose burdensome compliance requirements and restrict its activities, making it difficult to complete a Business Combination . The nominal purchase price of approximately $0.003 per share paid by the Sponsor for Founder Shares could result in significant dilution to public shareholders upon a Business Combination, and the Sponsor could make a substantial profit even if the trading price of ordinary shares materially declines . The Company's ability to obtain additional financing to complete a Business Combination or fund a target's operations and growth is not assured, and a lack of such financing could compel restructuring or abandonment of a transaction . If the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Completion Window, public shareholders may receive only approximately $10.00 per share , or less in certain circumstances, and warrants will expire worthless . The Company's reliance on digital technologies of third parties exposes it to cyber incidents or attacks, which could result in information theft, data corruption, operational disruption, and financial loss .

Management Priorities

Management's message to shareholders emphasizes the Company's role as a blank check company focused on identifying and executing a Business Combination within its 24-month Completion Window . The team intends to leverage the capabilities of Bluerock's platform and their extensive industry experience, cultivated over three decades of institutional investing, operating, and investment banking, to source high-quality deal flow . A key strategic priority is to identify target companies at an inflection point in their growth trajectory, seeking a strategic, long-term capital partner, and to collaborate with incumbent management to drive growth, improve operations, and prepare the company for public ownership . Management also highlights its commitment to identifying targets with robust growth prospects, recurring and predictable revenues, experienced management teams, comparable public peers, strong profitability and margins, favorable industry dynamics, and moderate leverage . The Company's officers and directors, including R. Ramin Kamfar as Chief Executive Officer and Chairman, and Jordan B. Ruddy as President, bring significant experience from the finance and investment management industries . While the Company has not issued formal financial guidance, it explicitly states that it does not expect to generate any operating revenues until after the completion of its Business Combination .
