Key Events
-
Going Concern Warning Issued
Management and auditors have raised substantial doubt about the company's ability to continue as a going concern due to liquidity issues and the mandatory liquidation date of February 15, 2027, if the business combination is not completed.

Severe Financial Distress
The company reported a net loss of $1.2 million for fiscal year 2025 and a working capital deficit of over $3.1 million as of December 31, 2025. It is relying on loans from the target company, Instinct Bio Technical Company Pte Ltd., with an outstanding balance of $433,190 exceeding the agreed principal amount.
Analysis
This annual report reveals critical financial distress for Relativity Acquisition Corp., a SPAC. Management and auditors have issued a 'going concern' warning, indicating substantial doubt about the company's ability to continue operations due to a significant working capital deficit and the looming liquidation deadline if the business combination is not completed. The company's shares were already delisted from Nasdaq, and despite shareholder approval for the merger with Instinct Brothers Co., Ltd, massive redemptions have left very few public shares outstanding. This combination of factors creates extreme uncertainty and risk for investors.
