Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Description of Organization and Business Operations	Note 1 — Description of Organization and Business Operations Northern Lights Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) is a blank check company incorporated in Delaware on February 26, 2021. The Company was formed for the purpose of effectuating a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or other similar business combination with one or more businesses (the “Business Combination”). The Company is an early stage and emerging growth company and, as such, the Company is subject to all of the risks associated with early stage and emerging growth companies. As of June 30, 2022, the Company had not yet commenced any operations. All activity for the period February 26, 2021 (inception) through June 30, 2022, relates to the Company’s formation and the initial public offering (the “Initial Public Offering”), and, since the closing of the initial public offering, the Company has entered into a unit purchase agreement and a securities purchase agreement (as described below). The Company has selected December 31 as its fiscal year end. The registration statement for the Company’s Initial Public Offering was declared effective on June 23, 2021. On June 28, 2021, the Company consummated the Initial Public Offering of 11,500,000 units (“Units” and, with respect to the shares of Class A Common Stock included in the Units offered, the “Public Shares”), generating gross proceeds of $115,000,000, which is described in Note 3. Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the sale of 528,175 private placement units (the “Private Placement Units”) at a price of $10.00 per unit in a private placement to the Sponsor, generating gross proceeds of $5,281,750, which is described in Note 4. Following the closing of the Initial Public Offering on June 28, 2021, an amount of $117,300,000 ($10.00 per Unit) from the net proceeds of the sale of the Units in the Initial Public Offering and the Private Placement Units was placed in a trust account (“Trust Account”) which may be invested in U.S. government securities, within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), with a maturity of 185 days or less or in any open-ended investment company that holds itself out as a money market fund meeting the conditions of Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act, as determined by the Company, until the earlier of: (i) the consummation of a Business Combination or (ii) the distribution of the Trust Account to the Company’s stockholders, as described below. Transaction costs of the Initial Public Offering amounted to $6,263,677, of which $1,725,000 was for underwriting fees paid at the time of the IPO, $4,025,000 was for deferred underwriting commissions, and $513,677 was for other offering costs. Following the closing of the Initial Public Offering $938,853 of cash was held outside of the Trust Account available for working capital purposes. As of June 30, 2022, we have $172,441 of cash on our balance sheet and working capital deficit of $1,810,112. The Company’s management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and the sale of the Private Placement Units, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be applied generally toward consummating a Business Combination. NASDAQ rules provide that the Business Combination must be with one or more target businesses that together have a fair market value equal to at least 80% of the balance in the Trust Account (as defined below) (less any deferred underwriting commissions and taxes payable on interest earned on the Trust Account) at the time of the signing of a definitive agreement to enter a Business Combination. The Company will only complete a Business Combination if the post-Business Combination company owns or acquires 50% or more of the outstanding voting securities of the target or otherwise acquires a controlling interest in the target sufficient for it not to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully effect a Business Combination. NORTHERN LIGHTS ACQUISITION CORP. NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Note 1 — Description of Organization and Business Operations (Continued) On February 11, 2022, the Company and 5AK, LLC (our “Sponsor”) entered into a definitive unit purchase agreement (the “Unit Purchase Agreement”) with SHF, LLC d/b/a Safe Harbor Financial, a Colorado limited liability company (“SHF”), SHF Holding Co., LLC, the sole member of SHF (the “Seller”), and Partner Colorado Credit Union, the sole member of the Seller (“PCCU”). Pursuant to the Unit Purchase Agreement, upon the closing (the “Closing”) of the Business Combination, we will purchase all of the issued and outstanding membership interests of SHF in exchange for an aggregate of $185,000,000, consisting of (i) 11,386,139 shares of Class A Common Stock with an aggregate value equal to $115,000,000 and (b) $70,000,000 in cash. Pursuant to the original terms of the Unit Purchase Agreement, the Unit Purchase Agreement could be terminated under certain customary and limited circumstances at any time prior to the closing of the Business Combination, including, among others, if the Closing had not occurred by June 30, 2022 (the “Outside Date”). On June 30, 2022, the Company, the Sponsor, SHF, the Seller, and PCCU agreed to amend the Unit Purchase Agreement to extend the Outside Date until July 29, 2022, with the ability for the deadline to be extended through September 28, 2022, to provide the Company with additional time to complete the Business Combination (the “UPA Extension”) as it awaits regulatory approval. Concurrently with entering into the Unit Purchase Agreement, we entered into a securities purchase agreement (a “Securities Purchase Agreement”) with certain investors (collectively, the “PIPE Investors”), pursuant to which, among other things, the PIPE Investors agreed to subscribe for and purchase, and we agreed to issue and sell to the PIPE Investors, an aggregate of 60,000 shares (the “PIPE Shares”) of our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Series A Convertible Preferred Stock”), and warrants to purchase up to a number of shares of Class A Common Stock equal to 50% of shares of the Class A Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the PIPE Shares (the “PIPE Warrants”) for gross proceeds of $60.0 million (the “PIPE Financing”). The Securities Purchase Agreement could be terminated under certain customary and limited circumstances at any time prior to the closing of the PIPE Financing, including, among others, if the closing had not occurred by June 30, 2022. The Company is currently completing satisfaction of its remaining closing conditions, including regulatory approvals, and is discussing with the PIPE Investors their continuing interest in the investment contemplated by the Securities Purchase Agreement. The Company’s stockholders approved the Business Combination at the special meeting of stockholders held on June 28, 2022. In connection with the proposed Business Combination with SHF, the Company provided its public stockholders with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Class A Common Stock upon the completion of such Business Combination. Stockholders holding 7,554,784 shares of Class A Common Stock submitted redemption requests in connection with the anticipated closing of the Business Combination. Following the extension of the Outside Date, these stockholders who previously submitted redemption requests in connection with the closing of the Business Combination may request that such redemption requests be reversed by contacting the Company’s transfer agent, Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company. It is currently anticipated that all shareholders, with the exception of those parties described in the below Forward Purchase Agreement section, will have an additional opportunity to redeem shares prior to the closing of the proposed Business Combination. In the event the proposed Business Combination with SHF is not consummated, in connection with an alternative proposed initial business combination, the Company will provide its public stockholders with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares upon the completion of a Business Combination either (i) in connection with a stockholder meeting called to approve the Business Combination or (ii) by means of a tender offer. In connection with a proposed Business Combination, the Company may seek stockholder approval of a Business Combination at a meeting called for such purpose at which stockholders may seek to redeem their shares, regardless of whether they vote for or against a Business Combination. The Company will proceed with a Business Combination only if the Company has net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001 either immediately prior to or upon such consummation of a Business Combination and, if the Company seeks stockholder approval, a majority of the outstanding shares voted are voted in favor of the Business Combination. The Company initially had until June 28, 2022 to consummate a Business Combination. If the Company was unable to complete a Business Combination within 12 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering, such period could (i) be extended by the Company’s stockholders in accordance with the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation or (ii) at the election of the Company subject to satisfaction of certain conditions, including the deposit of up to $2,300,000 into the Trust Account, be extended up to six additional months to December 28, 2022. On June 27, 2022, the Company, with proceeds advanced from an affiliate of the Sponsor, deposited $1,150,000 in the Trust Account extending operations for three months from June 28, 2022 to September 28, 2022. If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination by September 28, 2022, such period could (i) be extended by the Company’s stockholders in accordance with the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation or (ii) at the election of the Company subject to satisfaction of certain conditions, including the deposit of up to $1,150,000 into the Trust Account, be extended an additional three months to December 28, 2022. If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination by December 28, 2022 and such period is not extended by the Company’s stockholders in accordance with the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation, the Company will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but no more than ten business days thereafter, redeem the public shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay taxes (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then outstanding public shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public stockholders’ rights as stockholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any), subject to applicable law, and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the remaining stockholders and the Company’s board of directors, proceed to commence a voluntary liquidation and thereby a formal dissolution of the Company, subject in each case to its obligations under Delaware law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of applicable law. On June 30, 2022, $168,617 in Trust Account interest income was released to the Company and utilized to pay franchise taxes. The underwriter has agreed to waive its rights to the deferred underwriting commission held in the Trust Account in the event the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period and, in such event, such amounts will be included with the funds held in the Trust Account that will be available to fund the redemption of the Public Shares. In the event of such distribution, it is possible that the per share value of the assets remaining available for distribution will be less than the Initial Public Offering price per Unit ($10.00). There will be no redemption rights or liquidating distributions with respect to the Founder Shares (as defined below) or the shares of Class A Common Stock and the warrants that are included as components of the Private Placement Units. Such warrants will expire worthless if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the 12-month time period (or up to 18-month time period). NORTHERN LIGHTS ACQUISITION CORP. NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Note 1 — Description of Organization and Business Operations (Continued) The Sponsor has agreed that it will be liable to the Company if and to the extent any claims by a third party for services rendered or products sold to the Company, or a prospective target business with which the Company has entered into a written letter of intent, confidentiality or similar agreement or Business Combination agreement, reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account to below the lesser of (i) $10.20 per Public Share and (ii) the actual amount per Public Share held in the Trust Account as of the day of liquidation of the Trust Account, if less than $10.20 per share due to reductions in the value of the trust assets, less taxes payable, provided that such liability will not apply to any claims by a third party or prospective target business who executed a waiver of any and all rights to monies held in the Trust Account (whether or not such waiver is enforceable) nor will it apply to any claims under the Company’s indemnity of the underwriter of Initial Public Offering against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). However, the Company has not asked the Sponsor to reserve for such indemnification obligations, nor has the Company independently verified whether the Sponsor has sufficient funds to satisfy its indemnity obligations and believe that the Sponsor’s only assets are securities of the Company. Therefore, the Company cannot assure its stockholders that the Sponsor would be able to satisfy those obligations. None of the Company’s officers or directors will indemnify the Company for claims by third parties including, without limitation, claims by vendors and prospective target businesses. The Company will seek to reduce the possibility that the Sponsor will have to indemnify the Trust Account due to claims of creditors by endeavoring to have all vendors, service providers, prospective target businesses or other entities with which the Company does business, execute agreements with the Company waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to monies held in the Trust Account. Liquidity As of June 30, 2022, the Company had $172,441 in cash and a working capital deficit of $1,810,112. As described above, on June 28, 2021 the Company closed its IPO of 11,500,000 Units at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $115.0 million, and also consummated the Private Placement of 528,175 Private Placement units to the Sponsor at a purchase price of $10.00 per Private Placement unit, generating gross proceeds of $5,281,750. The Company’s liquidity needs prior to the consummation of its IPO were satisfied through the proceeds of $25,000 from the sale of the Founder Shares and proceed from the promissory note from sponsor of $92,737, which was repaid upon closure of the IPO. Subsequent to the IPO, the Company’s liquidity will be satisfied through a portion of the net proceeds from IPO held outside of the Trust Account. The Company intends to complete its initial Business Combination before September 28, 2022, however, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to consummate the Business Combination by then. In the event that we are unable to consummate the Business Combination before September 28, 2022, we anticipate identifying and accessing additional capital resources in order to extend the Business Combination period to December 28, 2022. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will have access to sufficient capital to extend the deadline to consummate the Business Combination. As a result, in connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with Financial Accounting Standard Board’s Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-15, “Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern,” it is uncertain that the Company will have sufficient liquidity to fund the working capital needs of the Company beyond September 28, 2022. Should a Business Combination not occur by September 28, 2022, Management has determined that given the liquidity condition of the Company as well as the uncertainty regarding the Company’s ability to extend the deadline to consummate the Business Combination, there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. No adjustments have been made to the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities should the Company be required to liquidate. The Company may need to raise additional capital through loans or additional investments from its Sponsor, stockholders, officers, directors or third parties. The Company’s officers, directors and Sponsor may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds, from time to time or at any time, in whatever amount they deem reasonable in their sole discretion, to meet the Company’s working capital needs. Accordingly, the Company may not be able to obtain additional financing. If the Company is unable to raise additional capital, the Company may be required to take additional measures to conserve liquidity, which could include, but not necessarily be limited to, curtailing operations, suspending the pursuit of a potential transaction, and reducing overhead expenses. The Company cannot provide any assurance that new financing will be available to it on commercially acceptable terms, if at all. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern through September 28, 2022. NORTHERN LIGHTS ACQUISITION CORP. NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Note 1 — Description of Organization and Business Operations (Continued) Deferred offering costs Deferred offering costs consist of costs incurred in connection with preparation for the PIPE Financing to be executed in conjunction with the Business Combination. These costs, together with the underwriting discounts and commissions, will be allocated among the freestanding financial instruments that are included in the PIPE Financing. As of June 30, 2022, the Company had deferred offering costs of $201,405 and accrued offering costs of $176,405 which are included in accrued expenses on the accompanying condensed balance sheet. There were no deferred offering costs or accrued offering costs at December 31, 2021. Forward purchase agreement On June 16, 2022, the Company, SHF, and Midtown East Management NL LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Midtown East”), entered into an agreement (the “Forward Purchase Agreement”) for an OTC Equity Prepaid Forward Transaction (the “Forward Purchase Transaction”). Pursuant to the terms of the Forward Purchase Agreement (a) Midtown East intends, but is not obligated, to purchase shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Class A Common Stock”), after the date of the Forward Purchase Agreement from holders of Class A Common Stock, other than the Company or affiliates of the Company, who have requested that their shares of Class A Common Stock be redeemed or indicated an interest in having their shares of Class A Common Stock redeemed pursuant to the redemption rights set forth in the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation in connection with the Business Combination (such holders, “Redeeming Holders”) and (b) Midtown East has agreed to waive any redemption rights in connection with the Business Combination with respect to any shares of Class A Common Stock it purchases in accordance with the Forward Purchase Agreement (the “Subject Shares”). The number of Subject Shares shall be no more than the lesser of (i) 5,000,000 and (ii) the maximum number of shares of Class A Common Stock such that Midtown East does not beneficially own greater than 9.9% of the Class A Common Stock on a post-combination pro forma basis. Midtown East will purchase any Additional Shares (as defined in the Forward Purchase Agreement) at the Redemption Price (as defined in Section 9.2 of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Company (the “Certificate of Incorporation”)), and has undertaken to purchase all Subject Shares at a price no higher than the Redemption Price. Subsequent to entering into the Forward Purchase Agreement, the Company, the Target, and Midtown East entered into assignment and novation agreements with Verdun Investments LLC (“Verdun”) and Vellar Opportunity Fund SPV LLC – Series 1 (“Vellar”), pursuant to which Midtown East assigned its obligations as to 1,666,666 shares of the shares of Class A Stock to be purchased under the Forward Purchase Agreement to each of Verdun and Vellar. As of June 27, 2022, Midtown East had purchased an aggregate of 1,599,496 shares of Class A Stock, Verdun had purchased an aggregate of 1,180,376 shares of Class A Stock, and Vellar had purchased an aggregate of 1,025,000 shares of Class A Stock (the “Purchased Shares”) in the Forward Purchase Transaction at an average purchase price per share of $10.21. 630,736 of the Purchased Shares were purchased from a holder of 5% or more of the Class A Stock. Pursuant to the Forward Purchase Agreement, Midtown East, Verdun, and Vellar have waived all redemption rights under the Certificate of Incorporation that would require redemption by the Company of the Purchased Shares. At June 30, 2022, Midtown East and its assignees had purchased 3,804,872 in shares pursuant to this agreement. The related amount of $38,809,694 has been reclassified from temporary to permanent equity. Also in connection with the Forward Purchase Agreement, the Company recognized a liability for a freestanding derivative, referred to herein as the “forward purchase option derivative,” on its Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Refer to Note 10 for further detail. The primary purpose of entering into the Forward Purchase Agreement is to help ensure the maximum redemption threshold condition in the Unit Purchase Agreement will be met, increasing the likelihood that the transaction will close. Risks and Uncertainties Management is currently evaluating the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and has concluded that while it is reasonably possible that the virus could have a negative effect on the Company’s financial position, results of its operations and/or search for a target company, the specific impact is not readily determinable as of the date of the financial statement. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Additionally, as a result of the military action commenced in February 2022 by the Russian Federation and Belarus in the country of Ukraine and related economic sanctions, the Company’s ability to consummate a Business Combination, including the proposed Business Combination with SHF, or the operations of a target business with which the Company ultimately consummates a Business Combination, including SHF, may be materially and adversely affected. Further, the Company’s ability to consummate a transaction may be dependent on the ability to raise equity and debt financing which may be impacted by these events, including as a result of increased market volatility, or decreased market liquidity in third-party financing being unavailable on terms acceptable to the Company or at all. The impact of this action and related sanctions on the world economy and the specific impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations and/or ability to consummate a Business Combination are not yet determinable. The condensed financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.	Note 1 — Description of Organization and Business Operations Northern Lights Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) is a blank check company incorporated in Delaware on February 26, 2021. The Company was formed for the purpose of effectuating a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or other similar business combination with one or more businesses (the “Business Combination”). The Company is an early stage and emerging growth company and, as such, the Company is subject to all of the risks associated with early stage and emerging growth companies. At December 31, 2021, the Company had not yet commenced any operations. All activity from inception through December 31, 2021 relates to the Company’s formation and the initial public Offering (as defined below), and, since the closing of the initial public offering, a search for a Business Combination candidate. The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of its initial Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company will generate non-operating income in the form of interest income from the proceeds derived from the Initial Public Offering. The Company has selected December 31 as its fiscal year end. The Registration Statement for the Company’s Initial Public Offering was declared effective on June 23, 2021. On June 28, 2021, the Company consummated the Initial Public Offering of 11,500,000 units (“Units” and, with respect to the shares of Class A Common Stock included in the Units offered, the “Public Shares”), generating gross proceeds of $115,000,000, which is described in Note 3. Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the sale of 528,175 private placement units (the “Private Placement Units”) at a price of $10.00 per unit in a private placement to 5AK, LLC (the “Sponsor”), generating gross proceeds of $5,281,750, which is described in Note 4. Following the closing of the Initial Public Offering on June 28, 2021, an amount of $117,300,000 ($10.20 per Unit) from the net proceeds of the sale of the Units in the Initial Public Offering and the Private Placement Units was placed in a trust account (“Trust Account”) which may be invested in U.S. government securities, within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), with a maturity of 185 days or less or in any open-ended investment company that holds itself out as a money market fund meeting the conditions of Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act, as determined by the Company, until the earlier of: (i) the consummation of a Business Combination or (ii) the distribution of the Trust Account to the Company’s stockholders, as described below. Transaction costs of the Initial Public Offering amounted to $6,263,677, of which $1,725,000 was for underwriting fees paid at the time of the IPO, $4,025,000 was for deferred underwriting commissions, and $513,677 was for other offering costs. Following the closing of the Initial Public Offering $938,853 of cash was held outside of the Trust Account available for working capital purposes. As of December 31, 2021, we have available to us $254,523 of cash on our balance sheet and a working capital deficit of $38,537. NORTHERN LIGHTS ACQUISITION CORP. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The Company’s management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and the sale of the Private Placement Units, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be applied generally toward consummating a Business Combination. NASDAQ rules provide that the Business Combination must be with one or more target businesses that together have a fair market value equal to at least 80% of the balance in the Trust Account (as defined below) (less any deferred underwriting commissions and taxes payable on interest earned on the Trust Account) at the time of the signing of a definitive agreement to enter a Business Combination. The Company will only complete a Business Combination if the post-Business Combination company owns or acquires 50% or more of the outstanding voting securities of the target or otherwise acquires a controlling interest in the target sufficient for it not to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully effect a Business Combination. The Company will provide its Stockholders with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares upon the completion of a Business Combination either (i) in connection with a stockholder meeting called to approve the Business Combination or (ii) by means of a tender offer. In connection with a proposed Business Combination, the Company may seek stockholder approval of a Business Combination at a meeting called for such purpose at which stockholders may seek to redeem their shares, regardless of whether they vote for or against a Business Combination. The Company will proceed with a Business Combination only if the Company has net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001 upon such consummation of a Business Combination and, if the Company seeks stockholder approval, a majority of the outstanding shares voted are voted in favor of the Business Combination. If the Company seeks stockholder approval of a Business Combination and it does not conduct redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules, the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation provides that a public stockholder, together with any affiliate of such stockholder or any other person with whom such stockholder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined under Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), will be restricted from seeking redemption rights with respect to 15% or more of the Public Shares without the Company’s prior written consent. The stockholders will be entitled to redeem their Public Shares for a pro rata portion of the amount then in the Trust Account (initially $10.00 per share, plus any pro rata interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay its tax obligations). The per-share amount to be distributed to stockholders who redeem their Public Shares will not be reduced by the deferred underwriting commissions the Company will pay to the underwriter. There will be no redemption rights upon the completion of a Business Combination with respect to the Company’s warrants or rights. These Common Stock are recorded at a redemption value and classified as temporary equity upon the completion of the Proposed Offering, in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” NORTHERN LIGHTS ACQUISITION CORP. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS If a stockholder vote is not required and the Company does not decide to hold a stockholder vote for business or other legal reasons, the Company will, pursuant to its Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, offer such redemption pursuant to the tender offer rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), and file tender offer documents containing substantially the same information as would be included in a proxy statement with the SEC prior to completing a Business Combination. The Sponsor has agreed (a) to vote its Class B Common Stock, the Common Stock included in the Private Units (the “Private Shares”) and any Public Shares purchased during or after the Proposed Offering in favor of a Business Combination, (b) not to propose an amendment to the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation with respect to the Company’s pre-Business Combination activities prior to the consummation of a Business Combination unless the Company provides dissenting public stockholders with the opportunity to redeem their Public Shares in conjunction with any such amendment; (c) not to redeem any shares (including the Class B Common Stock) and Private Units (including underlying securities) into the right to receive cash from the Trust Account in connection with a stockholder vote to approve a Business Combination (or to sell any shares in a tender offer in connection with a Business Combination if the Company does not seek stockholder approval in connection therewith) or a vote to amend the provisions of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation relating to stockholders’ rights of pre-Business Combination activity and (d) that the Class B Common Stock and Private Units (including underlying securities) shall not participate in any liquidating distributions upon winding up if a Business Combination is not consummated. However, the Sponsor will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to any Public Shares purchased during or after the Proposed Offering if the Company fails to complete its Business Combination. The Company will have up to 12 months from the closing of our IPO, or until June 28, 2022, to consummate an initial business combination. However, if we anticipate that we may not be able to consummate our initial business combination within 12 months, we may, by resolution of our board if requested by our sponsor, extend the period of time to consummate a business combination up to two times, each by an additional three months (for a total of up to 18 months, or until December 28, 2022 (“the Combination Period”), to complete a business combination), subject to the sponsor depositing additional funds into the trust account. If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the Company will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but no more than five business days thereafter, redeem 100% of the outstanding Public Shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned (net of taxes payable and less interest to pay dissolution expenses up to $100,000), divided by the number of then outstanding Public Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public stockholders’ rights as stockholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any), subject to applicable law, and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the remaining stockholders and the Company’s board of directors, proceed to commence a voluntary liquidation and thereby a formal dissolution of the Company, subject in each case to its obligations to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of applicable law. The underwriter has agreed to waive its rights to the deferred underwriting commission held in the Trust Account in the event the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period and, in such event, such amounts will be included with the funds held in the Trust Account that will be available to fund the redemption of the Public Shares. In the event of such distribution, it is possible that the per share value of the assets remaining available for distribution will be less than the Initial Public Offering price per Unit ($10.00). NORTHERN LIGHTS ACQUISITION CORP. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The Sponsor has agreed that it will be liable to the Company, if and to the extent any claims by a vendor for services rendered or products sold to the Company, or a prospective target business with which the Company has discussed entering into a transaction agreement, reduce the amounts in the Trust Account to below $10.00 per share (whether or not the underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised in full), except as to any claims by a third party who executed a waiver of any and all rights to seek access to the Trust Account and except as to any claims under the Company’s indemnity of the underwriters of the Proposed Offering against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). In the event that an executed waiver is deemed to be unenforceable against a third party, the Sponsor will not be responsible to the extent of any liability for such third party claims. The Company will seek to reduce the possibility that the Sponsor will have to indemnify the Trust Account due to claims of creditors by endeavoring to have all vendors, service providers (except for the company’s independent registered accounting firm), prospective target businesses or other entities with which the Company does business, execute agreements with the Company waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to monies held in the Trust Account. Liquidity As of December 31, 2021, the Company had $254,523 in cash and a working capital deficit of $38,537. As described above, on June 28, 2021 the Company closed its IPO of 11,500,000 Units at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $115.0 million, and also consummated the Private Placement of 528,175 Private Placement units to the Sponsor at a purchase price of $10.00 per Private Placement unit, generating gross proceeds of $5,281,750. The Company’s liquidity needs prior to the consummation of its IPO were satisfied through the proceeds of $25,000 from the sale of the Founder Shares and proceed from the promissory note from sponsor of $92,737, which was repaid upon closure of the IPO. Subsequent to the IPO, the Company’s liquidity will be satisfied through a portion of the net proceeds from IPO held outside of the Trust Account. The Company intends to complete its initial Business Combination before June 28,2022 and we believe we have sufficient arrangements with our vendors to continue to operate until we complete our initial Business Combination. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to consummate the Business Combination by then. In the event that we are unable to consummate the Business Combination before June 28, 2022 we anticipate identifying and accessing additional capital resources in order to extend the Business Combination period up to 18 months. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will have access to sufficient capital to extend the deadline to consummate the Business Combination. As a result, in connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with Financial Accounting Standard Board’s Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-15, “Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern,” it is uncertain that the Company will have sufficient liquidity to fund the working capital needs of the Company beyond June 28, 2022. Management has determined that given the liquidity condition of the Company, should a Business Combination not occur by June 28, 2022, there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. No adjustments have been made to the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities should the Company be required to liquidate. The Company may need to raise additional capital through loans or additional investments from its Sponsor, stockholders, officers, directors or third parties. The Company’s officers, directors and Sponsor may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds, from time to time or at any time, in whatever amount they deem reasonable in their sole discretion, to meet the Company’s working capital needs. Accordingly, the Company may not be able to obtain additional financing. If the Company is unable to raise additional capital, the Company may be required to take additional measures to conserve liquidity, which could include, but not necessarily be limited to, curtailing operations, suspending the pursuit of a potential transaction, and reducing overhead expenses. the Company cannot provide any assurance that new financing will be available to it on commercially acceptable terms, if at all. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern through June 28, 2022. NORTHERN LIGHTS ACQUISITION CORP. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Risks and Uncertainties Management is currently evaluating the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and has concluded that while it is reasonably possible that the virus could have a negative effect on the Company’s financial position, results of its operations and/or search for a target company, the specific impact is not readily determinable as of the date of the financial statement. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Note 1 — Description of Organization and Business Operations

Northern Lights Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) is a blank check company incorporated in Delaware on February 26, 2021. The Company was formed for the purpose of effectuating a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or other similar business combination with one or more businesses (the “Business Combination”). The Company is an early stage and emerging growth company and, as such, the Company is subject to all of the risks associated with early stage and emerging growth companies.

As of June 30, 2022, the Company had not yet commenced any operations. All activity for the period February 26, 2021 (inception) through June 30, 2022, relates to the Company’s formation and the initial public offering (the “Initial Public Offering”), and, since the closing of the initial public offering, the Company has entered into a unit purchase agreement and a securities purchase agreement (as described below). The Company has selected December 31 as its fiscal year end.

The registration statement for the Company’s Initial Public Offering was declared effective on June 23, 2021. On June 28, 2021, the Company consummated the Initial Public Offering of 11,500,000 units (“Units” and, with respect to the shares of Class A Common Stock included in the Units offered, the “Public Shares”), generating gross proceeds of $115,000,000, which is described in Note 3.

Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the sale of 528,175 private placement units (the “Private Placement Units”) at a price of $10.00 per unit in a private placement to the Sponsor, generating gross proceeds of $5,281,750, which is described in Note 4.

Following the closing of the Initial Public Offering on June 28, 2021, an amount of $117,300,000 ($10.00 per Unit) from the net proceeds of the sale of the Units in the Initial Public Offering and the Private Placement Units was placed in a trust account (“Trust Account”) which may be invested in U.S. government securities, within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), with a maturity of 185 days or less or in any open-ended investment company that holds itself out as a money market fund meeting the conditions of Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act, as determined by the Company, until the earlier of: (i) the consummation of a Business Combination or (ii) the distribution of the Trust Account to the Company’s stockholders, as described below.

Transaction costs of the Initial Public Offering amounted to $6,263,677, of which $1,725,000 was for underwriting fees paid at the time of the IPO, $4,025,000 was for deferred underwriting commissions, and $513,677 was for other offering costs.

Following the closing of the Initial Public Offering $938,853 of cash was held outside of the Trust Account available for working capital purposes. As of June 30, 2022, we have $172,441 of cash on our balance sheet and working capital deficit of $1,810,112.

The Company’s management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and the sale of the Private Placement Units, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be applied generally toward consummating a Business Combination. NASDAQ rules provide that the Business Combination must be with one or more target businesses that together have a fair market value equal to at least 80% of the balance in the Trust Account (as defined below) (less any deferred underwriting commissions and taxes payable on interest earned on the Trust Account) at the time of the signing of a definitive agreement to enter a Business Combination. The Company will only complete a Business Combination if the post-Business Combination company owns or acquires 50% or more of the outstanding voting securities of the target or otherwise acquires a controlling interest in the target sufficient for it not to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully effect a Business Combination.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1 — Description of Organization and Business Operations (Continued)

On February 11, 2022, the Company and 5AK, LLC (our “Sponsor”) entered into a definitive unit purchase agreement (the “Unit Purchase Agreement”) with SHF, LLC d/b/a Safe Harbor Financial, a Colorado limited liability company (“SHF”), SHF Holding Co., LLC, the sole member of SHF (the “Seller”), and Partner Colorado Credit Union, the sole member of the Seller (“PCCU”). Pursuant to the Unit Purchase Agreement, upon the closing (the “Closing”) of the Business Combination, we will purchase all of the issued and outstanding membership interests of SHF in exchange for an aggregate of $185,000,000, consisting of (i) 11,386,139 shares of Class A Common Stock with an aggregate value equal to $115,000,000 and (b) $70,000,000 in cash. Pursuant to the original terms of the Unit Purchase Agreement, the Unit Purchase Agreement could be terminated under certain customary and limited circumstances at any time prior to the closing of the Business Combination, including, among others, if the Closing had not occurred by June 30, 2022 (the “Outside Date”). On June 30, 2022, the Company, the Sponsor, SHF, the Seller, and PCCU agreed to amend the Unit Purchase Agreement to extend the Outside Date until July 29, 2022, with the ability for the deadline to be extended through September 28, 2022, to provide the Company with additional time to complete the Business Combination (the “UPA Extension”) as it awaits regulatory approval.

Concurrently with entering into the Unit Purchase Agreement, we entered into a securities purchase agreement (a “Securities Purchase Agreement”) with certain investors (collectively, the “PIPE Investors”), pursuant to which, among other things, the PIPE Investors agreed to subscribe for and purchase, and we agreed to issue and sell to the PIPE Investors, an aggregate of 60,000 shares (the “PIPE Shares”) of our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Series A Convertible Preferred Stock”), and warrants to purchase up to a number of shares of Class A Common Stock equal to 50% of shares of the Class A Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the PIPE Shares (the “PIPE Warrants”) for gross proceeds of $60.0 million (the “PIPE Financing”). The Securities Purchase Agreement could be terminated under certain customary and limited circumstances at any time prior to the closing of the PIPE Financing, including, among others, if the closing had not occurred by June 30, 2022. The Company is currently completing satisfaction of its remaining closing conditions, including regulatory approvals, and is discussing with the PIPE Investors their continuing interest in the investment contemplated by the Securities Purchase Agreement.

The Company’s stockholders approved the Business Combination at the special meeting of stockholders held on June 28, 2022. In connection with the proposed Business Combination with SHF, the Company provided its public stockholders with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Class A Common Stock upon the completion of such Business Combination. Stockholders holding 7,554,784 shares of Class A Common Stock submitted redemption requests in connection with the anticipated closing of the Business Combination. Following the extension of the Outside Date, these stockholders who previously submitted redemption requests in connection with the closing of the Business Combination may request that such redemption requests be reversed by contacting the Company’s transfer agent, Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company. It is currently anticipated that all shareholders, with the exception of those parties described in the below Forward Purchase Agreement section, will have an additional opportunity to redeem shares prior to the closing of the proposed Business Combination.

In the event the proposed Business Combination with SHF is not consummated, in connection with an alternative proposed initial business combination, the Company will provide its public stockholders with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares upon the completion of a Business Combination either (i) in connection with a stockholder meeting called to approve the Business Combination or (ii) by means of a tender offer. In connection with a proposed Business Combination, the Company may seek stockholder approval of a Business Combination at a meeting called for such purpose at which stockholders may seek to redeem their shares, regardless of whether they vote for or against a Business Combination. The Company will proceed with a Business Combination only if the Company has net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001 either immediately prior to or upon such consummation of a Business Combination and, if the Company seeks stockholder approval, a majority of the outstanding shares voted are voted in favor of the Business Combination.

The Company initially had until June 28, 2022 to consummate a Business Combination. If the Company was unable to complete a Business Combination within 12 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering, such period could (i) be extended by the Company’s stockholders in accordance with the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation or (ii) at the election of the Company subject to satisfaction of certain conditions, including the deposit of up to $2,300,000 into the Trust Account, be extended up to six additional months to December 28, 2022. On June 27, 2022, the Company, with proceeds advanced from an affiliate of the Sponsor, deposited $1,150,000 in the Trust Account extending operations for three months from June 28, 2022 to September 28, 2022. If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination by September 28, 2022, such period could (i) be extended by the Company’s stockholders in accordance with the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation or (ii) at the election of the Company subject to satisfaction of certain conditions, including the deposit of up to $1,150,000 into the Trust Account, be extended an additional three months to December 28, 2022. If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination by December 28, 2022 and such period is not extended by the Company’s stockholders in accordance with the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation, the Company will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but no more than ten business days thereafter, redeem the public shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay taxes (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then outstanding public shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public stockholders’ rights as stockholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any), subject to applicable law, and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the remaining stockholders and the Company’s board of directors, proceed to commence a voluntary liquidation and thereby a formal dissolution of the Company, subject in each case to its obligations under Delaware law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of applicable law. On June 30, 2022, $168,617 in Trust Account interest income was released to the Company and utilized to pay franchise taxes.

The underwriter has agreed to waive its rights to the deferred underwriting commission held in the Trust Account in the event the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period and, in such event, such amounts will be included with the funds held in the Trust Account that will be available to fund the redemption of the Public Shares. In the event of such distribution, it is possible that the per share value of the assets remaining available for distribution will be less than the Initial Public Offering price per Unit ($10.00). There will be no redemption rights or liquidating distributions with respect to the Founder Shares (as defined below) or the shares of Class A Common Stock and the warrants that are included as components of the Private Placement Units. Such warrants will expire worthless if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the 12-month time period (or up to 18-month time period).

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1 — Description of Organization and Business Operations (Continued)

The Sponsor has agreed that it will be liable to the Company if and to the extent any claims by a third party for services rendered or products sold to the Company, or a prospective target business with which the Company has entered into a written letter of intent, confidentiality or similar agreement or Business Combination agreement, reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account to below the lesser of (i) $10.20 per Public Share and (ii) the actual amount per Public Share held in the Trust Account as of the day of liquidation of the Trust Account, if less than $10.20 per share due to reductions in the value of the trust assets, less taxes payable, provided that such liability will not apply to any claims by a third party or prospective target business who executed a waiver of any and all rights to monies held in the Trust Account (whether or not such waiver is enforceable) nor will it apply to any claims under the Company’s indemnity of the underwriter of Initial Public Offering against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). However, the Company has not asked the Sponsor to reserve for such indemnification obligations, nor has the Company independently verified whether the Sponsor has sufficient funds to satisfy its indemnity obligations and believe that the Sponsor’s only assets are securities of the Company. Therefore, the Company cannot assure its stockholders that the Sponsor would be able to satisfy those obligations. None of the Company’s officers or directors will indemnify the Company for claims by third parties including, without limitation, claims by vendors and prospective target businesses. The Company will seek to reduce the possibility that the Sponsor will have to indemnify the Trust Account due to claims of creditors by endeavoring to have all vendors, service providers, prospective target businesses or other entities with which the Company does business, execute agreements with the Company waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to monies held in the Trust Account.

Liquidity

As of June 30, 2022, the Company had $172,441 in cash and a working capital deficit of $1,810,112. As described above, on June 28, 2021 the Company closed its IPO of 11,500,000 Units at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $115.0 million, and also consummated the Private Placement of 528,175 Private Placement units to the Sponsor at a purchase price of $10.00 per Private Placement unit, generating gross proceeds of $5,281,750.

The Company’s liquidity needs prior to the consummation of its IPO were satisfied through the proceeds of $25,000 from the sale of the Founder Shares and proceed from the promissory note from sponsor of $92,737, which was repaid upon closure of the IPO. Subsequent to the IPO, the Company’s liquidity will be satisfied through a portion of the net proceeds from IPO held outside of the Trust Account.

The Company intends to complete its initial Business Combination before September 28, 2022, however, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to consummate the Business Combination by then. In the event that we are unable to consummate the Business Combination before September 28, 2022, we anticipate identifying and accessing additional capital resources in order to extend the Business Combination period to December 28, 2022. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will have access to sufficient capital to extend the deadline to consummate the Business Combination. As a result, in connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with Financial Accounting Standard Board’s Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-15, “Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern,” it is uncertain that the Company will have sufficient liquidity to fund the working capital needs of the Company beyond September 28, 2022. Should a Business Combination not occur by September 28, 2022, Management has determined that given the liquidity condition of the Company as well as the uncertainty regarding the Company’s ability to extend the deadline to consummate the Business Combination, there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. No adjustments have been made to the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities should the Company be required to liquidate. The Company may need to raise additional capital through loans or additional investments from its Sponsor, stockholders, officers, directors or third parties. The Company’s officers, directors and Sponsor may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds, from time to time or at any time, in whatever amount they deem reasonable in their sole discretion, to meet the Company’s working capital needs. Accordingly, the Company may not be able to obtain additional financing. If the Company is unable to raise additional capital, the Company may be required to take additional measures to conserve liquidity, which could include, but not necessarily be limited to, curtailing operations, suspending the pursuit of a potential transaction, and reducing overhead expenses. The Company cannot provide any assurance that new financing will be available to it on commercially acceptable terms, if at all. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern through September 28, 2022.

Deferred offering costs

Deferred offering costs consist of costs incurred in connection with preparation for the PIPE Financing to be executed in conjunction with the Business Combination. These costs, together with the underwriting discounts and commissions, will be allocated among the freestanding financial instruments that are included in the PIPE Financing. As of June 30, 2022, the Company had deferred offering costs of $201,405 and accrued offering costs of $176,405 which are included in accrued expenses on the accompanying condensed balance sheet. There were no deferred offering costs or accrued offering costs at December 31, 2021.

Forward purchase agreement

On June 16, 2022, the Company, SHF, and Midtown East Management NL LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Midtown East”), entered into an agreement (the “Forward Purchase Agreement”) for an OTC Equity Prepaid Forward Transaction (the “Forward Purchase Transaction”). Pursuant to the terms of the Forward Purchase Agreement (a) Midtown East intends, but is not obligated, to purchase shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Class A Common Stock”), after the date of the Forward Purchase Agreement from holders of Class A Common Stock, other than the Company or affiliates of the Company, who have requested that their shares of Class A Common Stock be redeemed or indicated an interest in having their shares of Class A Common Stock redeemed pursuant to the redemption rights set forth in the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation in connection with the Business Combination (such holders, “Redeeming Holders”) and (b) Midtown East has agreed to waive any redemption rights in connection with the Business Combination with respect to any shares of Class A Common Stock it purchases in accordance with the Forward Purchase Agreement (the “Subject Shares”). The number of Subject Shares shall be no more than the lesser of (i) 5,000,000 and (ii) the maximum number of shares of Class A Common Stock such that Midtown East does not beneficially own greater than 9.9% of the Class A Common Stock on a post-combination pro forma basis. Midtown East will purchase any Additional Shares (as defined in the Forward Purchase Agreement) at the Redemption Price (as defined in Section 9.2 of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Company (the “Certificate of Incorporation”)), and has undertaken to purchase all Subject Shares at a price no higher than the Redemption Price.

Subsequent to entering into the Forward Purchase Agreement, the Company, the Target, and Midtown East entered into assignment and novation agreements with Verdun Investments LLC (“Verdun”) and Vellar Opportunity Fund SPV LLC – Series 1 (“Vellar”), pursuant to which Midtown East assigned its obligations as to 1,666,666 shares of the shares of Class A Stock to be purchased under the Forward Purchase Agreement to each of Verdun and Vellar. As of June 27, 2022, Midtown East had purchased an aggregate of 1,599,496 shares of Class A Stock, Verdun had purchased an aggregate of 1,180,376 shares of Class A Stock, and Vellar had purchased an aggregate of 1,025,000 shares of Class A Stock (the “Purchased Shares”) in the Forward Purchase Transaction at an average purchase price per share of $10.21. 630,736 of the Purchased Shares were purchased from a holder of 5% or more of the Class A Stock. Pursuant to the Forward Purchase Agreement, Midtown East, Verdun, and Vellar have waived all redemption rights under the Certificate of Incorporation that would require redemption by the Company of the Purchased Shares.

At June 30, 2022, Midtown East and its assignees had purchased 3,804,872 in shares pursuant to this agreement. The related amount of $38,809,694 has been reclassified from temporary to permanent equity. Also in connection with the Forward Purchase Agreement, the Company recognized a liability for a freestanding derivative, referred to herein as the “forward purchase option derivative,” on its Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Refer to Note 10 for further detail.

The primary purpose of entering into the Forward Purchase Agreement is to help ensure the maximum redemption threshold condition in the Unit Purchase Agreement will be met, increasing the likelihood that the transaction will close.

Risks and Uncertainties

Management is currently evaluating the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and has concluded that while it is reasonably possible that the virus could have a negative effect on the Company’s financial position, results of its operations and/or search for a target company, the specific impact is not readily determinable as of the date of the financial statement. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Additionally, as a result of the military action commenced in February 2022 by the Russian Federation and Belarus in the country of Ukraine and related economic sanctions, the Company’s ability to consummate a Business Combination, including the proposed Business Combination with SHF, or the operations of a target business with which the Company ultimately consummates a Business Combination, including SHF, may be materially and adversely affected. Further, the Company’s ability to consummate a transaction may be dependent on the ability to raise equity and debt financing which may be impacted by these events, including as a result of increased market volatility, or decreased market liquidity in third-party financing being unavailable on terms acceptable to the Company or at all. The impact of this action and related sanctions on the world economy and the specific impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations and/or ability to consummate a Business Combination are not yet determinable. The condensed financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Note 1 — Description of Organization and Business Operations

At December 31, 2021, the Company had not yet commenced any operations. All activity from inception through December 31, 2021 relates to the Company’s formation and the initial public Offering (as defined below), and, since the closing of the initial public offering, a search for a Business Combination candidate. The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of its initial Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company will generate non-operating income in the form of interest income from the proceeds derived from the Initial Public Offering.

The Company has selected December 31 as its fiscal year end.

The Registration Statement for the Company’s Initial Public Offering was declared effective on June 23, 2021. On June 28, 2021, the Company consummated the Initial Public Offering of 11,500,000 units (“Units” and, with respect to the shares of Class A Common Stock included in the Units offered, the “Public Shares”), generating gross proceeds of $115,000,000, which is described in Note 3.

Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the sale of 528,175 private placement units (the “Private Placement Units”) at a price of $10.00 per unit in a private placement to 5AK, LLC (the “Sponsor”), generating gross proceeds of $5,281,750, which is described in Note 4.

Following the closing of the Initial Public Offering on June 28, 2021, an amount of $117,300,000 ($10.20 per Unit) from the net proceeds of the sale of the Units in the Initial Public Offering and the Private Placement Units was placed in a trust account (“Trust Account”) which may be invested in U.S. government securities, within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), with a maturity of 185 days or less or in any open-ended investment company that holds itself out as a money market fund meeting the conditions of Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act, as determined by the Company, until the earlier of: (i) the consummation of a Business Combination or (ii) the distribution of the Trust Account to the Company’s stockholders, as described below.

Following the closing of the Initial Public Offering $938,853 of cash was held outside of the Trust Account available for working capital purposes. As of December 31, 2021, we have available to us $254,523 of cash on our balance sheet and a working capital deficit of $38,537.

NORTHERN LIGHTS ACQUISITION CORP.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The Company will provide its Stockholders with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares upon the completion of a Business Combination either (i) in connection with a stockholder meeting called to approve the Business Combination or (ii) by means of a tender offer. In connection with a proposed Business Combination, the Company may seek stockholder approval of a Business Combination at a meeting called for such purpose at which stockholders may seek to redeem their shares, regardless of whether they vote for or against a Business Combination. The Company will proceed with a Business Combination only if the Company has net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001 upon such consummation of a Business Combination and, if the Company seeks stockholder approval, a majority of the outstanding shares voted are voted in favor of the Business Combination.

If the Company seeks stockholder approval of a Business Combination and it does not conduct redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules, the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation provides that a public stockholder, together with any affiliate of such stockholder or any other person with whom such stockholder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined under Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), will be restricted from seeking redemption rights with respect to 15% or more of the Public Shares without the Company’s prior written consent.

The stockholders will be entitled to redeem their Public Shares for a pro rata portion of the amount then in the Trust Account (initially $10.00 per share, plus any pro rata interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay its tax obligations). The per-share amount to be distributed to stockholders who redeem their Public Shares will not be reduced by the deferred underwriting commissions the Company will pay to the underwriter. There will be no redemption rights upon the completion of a Business Combination with respect to the Company’s warrants or rights. These Common Stock are recorded at a redemption value and classified as temporary equity upon the completion of the Proposed Offering, in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.”

NORTHERN LIGHTS ACQUISITION CORP.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

If a stockholder vote is not required and the Company does not decide to hold a stockholder vote for business or other legal reasons, the Company will, pursuant to its Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, offer such redemption pursuant to the tender offer rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), and file tender offer documents containing substantially the same information as would be included in a proxy statement with the SEC prior to completing a Business Combination.

The Sponsor has agreed (a) to vote its Class B Common Stock, the Common Stock included in the Private Units (the “Private Shares”) and any Public Shares purchased during or after the Proposed Offering in favor of a Business Combination, (b) not to propose an amendment to the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation with respect to the Company’s pre-Business Combination activities prior to the consummation of a Business Combination unless the Company provides dissenting public stockholders with the opportunity to redeem their Public Shares in conjunction with any such amendment; (c) not to redeem any shares (including the Class B Common Stock) and Private Units (including underlying securities) into the right to receive cash from the Trust Account in connection with a stockholder vote to approve a Business Combination (or to sell any shares in a tender offer in connection with a Business Combination if the Company does not seek stockholder approval in connection therewith) or a vote to amend the provisions of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation relating to stockholders’ rights of pre-Business Combination activity and (d) that the Class B Common Stock and Private Units (including underlying securities) shall not participate in any liquidating distributions upon winding up if a Business Combination is not consummated. However, the Sponsor will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to any Public Shares purchased during or after the Proposed Offering if the Company fails to complete its Business Combination.

The Company will have up to 12 months from the closing of our IPO, or until June 28, 2022, to consummate an initial business combination. However, if we anticipate that we may not be able to consummate our initial business combination within 12 months, we may, by resolution of our board if requested by our sponsor, extend the period of time to consummate a business combination up to two times, each by an additional three months (for a total of up to 18 months, or until December 28, 2022 (“the Combination Period”), to complete a business combination), subject to the sponsor depositing additional funds into the trust account. If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the Company will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but no more than five business days thereafter, redeem 100% of the outstanding Public Shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned (net of taxes payable and less interest to pay dissolution expenses up to $100,000), divided by the number of then outstanding Public Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public stockholders’ rights as stockholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any), subject to applicable law, and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the remaining stockholders and the Company’s board of directors, proceed to commence a voluntary liquidation and thereby a formal dissolution of the Company, subject in each case to its obligations to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of applicable law. The underwriter has agreed to waive its rights to the deferred underwriting commission held in the Trust Account in the event the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period and, in such event, such amounts will be included with the funds held in the Trust Account that will be available to fund the redemption of the Public Shares. In the event of such distribution, it is possible that the per share value of the assets remaining available for distribution will be less than the Initial Public Offering price per Unit ($10.00).

The Sponsor has agreed that it will be liable to the Company, if and to the extent any claims by a vendor for services rendered or products sold to the Company, or a prospective target business with which the Company has discussed entering into a transaction agreement, reduce the amounts in the Trust Account to below $10.00 per share (whether or not the underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised in full), except as to any claims by a third party who executed a waiver of any and all rights to seek access to the Trust Account and except as to any claims under the Company’s indemnity of the underwriters of the Proposed Offering against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). In the event that an executed waiver is deemed to be unenforceable against a third party, the Sponsor will not be responsible to the extent of any liability for such third party claims. The Company will seek to reduce the possibility that the Sponsor will have to indemnify the Trust Account due to claims of creditors by endeavoring to have all vendors, service providers (except for the company’s independent registered accounting firm), prospective target businesses or other entities with which the Company does business, execute agreements with the Company waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to monies held in the Trust Account.

Liquidity

As of December 31, 2021, the Company had $254,523 in cash and a working capital deficit of $38,537. As described above, on June 28, 2021 the Company closed its IPO of 11,500,000 Units at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $115.0 million, and also consummated the Private Placement of 528,175 Private Placement units to the Sponsor at a purchase price of $10.00 per Private Placement unit, generating gross proceeds of $5,281,750.

The Company intends to complete its initial Business Combination before June 28,2022 and we believe we have sufficient arrangements with our vendors to continue to operate until we complete our initial Business Combination. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to consummate the Business Combination by then. In the event that we are unable to consummate the Business Combination before June 28, 2022 we anticipate identifying and accessing additional capital resources in order to extend the Business Combination period up to 18 months. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will have access to sufficient capital to extend the deadline to consummate the Business Combination. As a result, in connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with Financial Accounting Standard Board’s Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-15, “Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern,” it is uncertain that the Company will have sufficient liquidity to fund the working capital needs of the Company beyond June 28, 2022. Management has determined that given the liquidity condition of the Company, should a Business Combination not occur by June 28, 2022, there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. No adjustments have been made to the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities should the Company be required to liquidate. The Company may need to raise additional capital through loans or additional investments from its Sponsor, stockholders, officers, directors or third parties. The Company’s officers, directors and Sponsor may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds, from time to time or at any time, in whatever amount they deem reasonable in their sole discretion, to meet the Company’s working capital needs. Accordingly, the Company may not be able to obtain additional financing. If the Company is unable to raise additional capital, the Company may be required to take additional measures to conserve liquidity, which could include, but not necessarily be limited to, curtailing operations, suspending the pursuit of a potential transaction, and reducing overhead expenses. the Company cannot provide any assurance that new financing will be available to it on commercially acceptable terms, if at all. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern through June 28, 2022.
