NewHold Investment Corp. III, a blank check company, has reiterated its 'going concern' warning in its latest quarterly report, following a similar disclosure in its 10-K filed just over a month ago.

This quarter's financials show a significant deterioration in liquidity, with cash and cash equivalents nearly halving to $624,000 and negative working capital increasing to $1.1 million. General and administrative expenses also surged, indicating a higher burn rate as the company searches for a target.
