Ordinary Shares Subject to Eventual Redemption
The Company accounts for its ordinary shares subject to possible reimbursement in accordance with the directives of subject 480 of the codification of accounting standards (“ASCâ€) “Distinguishing liabilities from equityâ€. Ordinary shares subject to mandatory redemption (if any) are classified as a liability instrument and are measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable ordinary shares (including ordinary shares with repurchase rights which are either under the control of the holder, or liable to be redeemed in the event of uncertain events which are not solely within the control of the Company) are classified as temporary equity. At all other times, common shares are classified as equity. The Company’s ordinary shares carry certain repurchase rights which are considered to be beyond the control of the Company and subject to the occurrence of uncertain future events. Consequently, ordinary shares liable to be redeemed are presented at their redemption value in temporary equity, outside the equity section of the Company’s balance sheet.
The Company recognizes changes in the redemption value immediately as they occur and adjusts the carrying value of the redeemable common shares to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Increases or decreases in the carrying value of redeemable common shares are affected by charges against additional paid-up capital and accumulated deficit.
Net Income Per Common Share
The Company has two classes of shares, called Class A common shares and Class B common shares. Gains and losses are allocated on a pro rata basis between the two classes of shares. The 14,750,000 potential ordinary shares for the outstanding warrants to purchase the Company’s shares have been excluded from diluted earnings per share for the three and nine months ended.
