  The company outlined its merger agreement with Enhanced Ltd., a Cayman Islands company, which includes a reincorporation to Texas and a post-merger name change to "Enhanced Group Inc." This follows the initial announcement on November 26, 2025.

• Target Valuation and Control Shift

  Enhanced Ltd. has a pre-money valuation cap of $1.2 billion. Post-closing, Class B holders (Apeiron Investment Group Limited) will hold at least 95% of the voting power in the combined entity, indicating a significant change in control.

• Auditor's Going Concern Warning

  The independent auditor explicitly stated "Substantial Doubt about the Company's Ability to Continue as a Going Concern" due to the mandatory liquidation if a business combination is not completed by July 31, 2027.

• Sponsor Equity Agreement

  Apeiron Investment Group Limited entered into an agreement with the Sponsor, including put and call options on Sponsor Securities and a $5.5 million non-refundable deposit, which de-risks the sponsor's investment.

This annual report provides comprehensive details on AParadise Acquisition Corp.'s proposed business combination with Enhanced Ltd., a critical step for the SPAC to avoid liquidation. The deal involves a reincorporation to Texas and a dual-class share structure where Class B holders will control 95% of the voting power post-merger, indicating a significant shift in control. While the business combination is essential for the SPAC's survival, the auditor's explicit "Substantial Doubt about the Company's Ability to Continue as a Going Concern" is a severe warning, highlighting the inherent risks and the tight deadline of July 31, 2027, to complete a transaction. The $1.2 billion pre-money valuation of the target, relative to the SPAC's current market capitalization, suggests potential for substantial dilution for existing public shareholders. Investors should closely monitor the progress of the business combination and the terms of any redemptions.
