If the subject report could not be filed without unreasonable effort or expense and the registrant seeks relief pursuant to Rule 12b-25(b), the following should be completed. (Check box if appropriate)

 

x	(a)	The reasons described in reasonable detail in Part III of this form could not be eliminated without unreasonable effort or expense;
¨	(b)	The subject annual report, semi-annual report, transition report on Form 10-K, Form 20-F, 11-K, Form N-SAR or From N-CSR, or portion thereof, will be filed on or before the fifteenth calendar day following the prescribed due date; or the subject quarterly report of transition report on Form 10-Q, or portion thereof will be filed on or before the fifth calendar day following the prescribed due date; and

PART III
NARRATIVE

 

State below in reasonable detail the reasons why Forms 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q, N-SAR, N-CSR, or the transition report or portion thereof, could not be filed within the prescribed time period.

 

Gardiner Healthcare Acquisitions Corp., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), has determined that it is unable, without unreasonable effort or expense, to file timely its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2023 (the “Q1 2023 Form 10-Q”) due to additional time needed to compile information required to be included in the Form 10-Q.

 

In the quarter ended March 31, 2023, the Company issued several promissory notes to raise capital for ongoing operations. Such notes contain an option to the holder to exchange the note for warrants and a feature to receive a portion of the shares of common stock of the Company held by the Company’s sponsors. Issuance of these promissory notes requires an independent valuation and an accounting evaluation as to how to account for different features of the promissory notes. The Company does not anticipate filing the Q1 2023 Form 10-Q on or before May 22, 2023, the extended period provided for the filing under Rule 12b-25(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, because the Company requires additional time to assess the accounting and disclosures of the promissory notes to ensure adequate recognition and disclosure of the information required to be included in the Q1 2023 Form 10-Q and the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, BDO USA LLP, will require additional time to complete its review of the financial statements to be included in such Q1 2023 Form 10-Q. However, the Company expects to file by June 15, 2023 and has been and intends to continue working diligently to file the Q1 2023 Form 10-Q as soon as possible.
