• Going Concern Doubt Disclosed

  Management determined that mandatory liquidation if no business combination occurs by December 31, 2026, and insufficient operating funds raise substantial doubt about the company's ability to continue as a going concern.

• Unpaid Excise Tax Liability

  The company owes $3,124,166 in excise taxes, including $673,790 in interest and penalties, with approximately $2,300,000 past due since April 30, 2025. It has insufficient funds to pay without additional financing.

• Merger Agreement Past Outside Date

  The Events.com merger agreement is past its outside date, and the company is in negotiations to amend it. No assurance is provided that an extension will be agreed, which could lead to termination.

• Material Weakness in Internal Controls

  A material weakness in internal control over financial reporting related to accounting for complex financial instruments caused disclosure controls to be ineffective as of June 30, 2026.

The 10-Q reveals that Concord Acquisition Corp II has substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern, driven by a $3.1 million excise tax liability it cannot pay and a merger agreement with Events.com that is past its outside date with no assurance of extension. Management also disclosed a material weakness in internal controls over complex financial instruments. These are first-time disclosures that fundamentally alter the risk profile for a SPAC trading near its 52-week low.
