NOTE 1 — DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS EQV Ventures Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) was incorporated as a Cayman Islands exempted company on April 15, 2024. The Company was formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, amalgamation, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities. The Company is not limited to a particular or geographic region for purposes of consummating a business combination. The Company is an emerging growth company and, as such, the Company is subject to all of the risks associated with emerging growth companies. As of December 31, 2024, the Company had not commenced any operations. All activity for the period from April 15, 2024 (inception) through December 31, 2024 relates to the Company’s formation and its initial public offering (the “Initial Public Offering”), which is described below. The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of its 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. 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 August 6, 2024. On August 8, 2024, the Company consummated the Initial Public Offering of 35,000,000 units, each consisting of one Class A ordinary share and one-third of one redeemable warrant (the “Units” and, with respect to the Class A ordinary shares included in the Units, the “public shares”), at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $350,000,000, which is described in Note 3. Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the sale of (i) 400,000 units, each consisting of one Class A ordinary share and one-third of one redeemable warrant (the “Sponsor Private Placement Units”), at a price of $10.00 per Sponsor Private Placement Unit in a private placement to EQV Ventures Sponsor LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Sponsor”), generating gross proceeds of $4,000,000, and (ii) 262,500 units, each consisting of one Class A ordinary share and one-third of one redeemable warrant (the “Underwriter Private Placement Units,” and together with the Sponsor Private Placement Units, the “Private Placement Units”), at a price of $10.00 per Underwriter Private Placement Unit in a private placement to BTIG, LLC (“BTIG”), generating gross proceeds of $2,625,000. The Private Placement Units are discussed in Notes 3 and 4. Transaction costs amounted to $19,093,523, consisting of $5,250,000 of cash underwriting fees, $12,250,000 of deferred underwriting fees, and $1,593,523 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 Company’s initial business combination must be with one or more target businesses that together have a fair market value of at least 80% of the assets held in the trust account (net, with respect to interest income, of certain amounts of working capital expenses (up to 10%, per annum, of the interest earned on the trust account), taxes payable and up to $100,000 to pay liquidation expenses) at the time of the agreement to enter into a business combination. The Company will only complete a business combination if the post-business combination company owns or acquires 50% or more of the outstanding voting securities of the target or otherwise acquires a controlling interest in the target sufficient for it not to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”). There is no assurance that the Company will be able to complete a business combination successfully.…
