Introduction

The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared to aid in your analysis of the financial impacts of (1) the transaction between TTNP and PubCo, Merger Sub and the Company and (2) certain related transactions. The pro forma financial information reflects the combination of historical financial information of TTNP, PubCo and TalenTec, adjusted to give effect to (A) the transactions, inclusive of the issuance of PubCo Ordinary Shares for PubCo Series A preferred stock, TTNP Common Stock, TTNP Series AA Preferred Stock, TTNP Series B Preferred Stock, TTNP Series C Preferred Stock and the exchange of PubCo Ordinary Shares for TalenTec’s ordinary shares in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement, and (B) the payment of transaction costs, as required by the Merger Agreement, as each are subsequently described in greater detail. Hereinafter, TTNP, PubCo and TalenTec are collectively referred to as the “companies,” and the companies, subsequent to the transaction, are referred to herein as the “Combined Company.”

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet, which has been presented for the Combined Company as of January 31, 2025, gives effect to the Transactions as if they were consummated on January 31, 2025. (PubCo has adopted a July 31 fiscal year) The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations, which have been presented for the Combined Company for the six months ended January 31, 2025 and for the year ended July 31, 2024, give pro forma effect to the Transactions as if they had occurred on August 1, 2023. The historical consolidated financial information of TTNP, historical combined financial information of PubCo and historical combined financial information of TalenTec, f/k/a KE Sdn. Bhd. have been adjusted in the pro forma financial statements, which depicts the accounting for the transaction (“Transaction Accounting Adjustments”) and allows optional pro forma adjustments that present the reasonably estimable synergies and other transaction effects that have occurred or are reasonably expected to occur (“Management’s Adjustments”). The unaudited pro forma Transaction Accounting Adjustments represent management’s estimates based on information available as of the date of this unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated financial information and are subject to change as additional information becomes available and analyses are performed. The pro forma financial statements have been presented for informational purposes only and are not necessarily indicative of what the Combined Company’s financial position or results of operations actually would have been had the transaction been completed as of the dates indicated. In addition, the pro forma financial statements do not purport to project the future financial position or operating results of the Combined Company.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements are provided for illustrative purposes only and are not necessarily indicative of what the actual results of operations and financial position would have been had the Business Combination taken place on the dates indicated, nor are they indicative of the future consolidated results of operations or financial position of the combined company.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information was derived from, and should be read in conjunction with, the following historical financial statements and the accompanying notes:

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information should also be read together with “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” included in TTNP’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended March 31, 2025, filed with the SEC on May 14, 2025, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” included in TTNP’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, filed with the SEC on January 3, 2025 and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” included in TTNP’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, filed with the SEC on March 20, 2025, and included elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus.

Description of the Transactions

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements reflect (1) the transaction between TTNP, PubCo and TalenTec in accordance with the Merger Agreement dated August 19, 2024, and (2) additional transactions directly related to and/or triggered by the transaction. More specifically, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements give effect to the following material events:

Upon the closing of the Transactions, (i) existing TTNP Stockholders (other than the Related Parties) will own approximately 26.8% of the issued and outstanding PubCo Ordinary Shares; (ii) TalenTec’s existing security holders will own approximately 47.51% of the outstanding PubCo Ordinary Shares; and (iii) the Related Parties, through their ownership of TTNP Common Stock on the date hereof, will own less than one percent of the issued and outstanding PubCo Ordinary Shares. Such ownership percentages could be subject to proportional dilution for any required financing in connection with the Closing.

The following table provides an estimate of the Combined Company’s ordinary shares that are anticipated to be outstanding immediately subsequent to consummation of the Transactions:

 * Includes shares otherwise issuable to a TalenTec Shareholder that he has agreed shall be issued to the PubCo Series A Stockholder.

Accounting for the Transaction

Notwithstanding the legal form of the transaction pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the transaction is accounted for as a reverse recapitalization in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Under this method of accounting, TTNP is treated as the acquired company for financial reporting purposes, and TalenTec is treated as the accounting acquirer. In accordance with this accounting method, the transaction is treated as the equivalent of TalenTec’s issuing stock for the net assets of TTNP, accompanied by a recapitalization. The net assets of TTNP are stated at historical cost, with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded, and operations prior to the closing of the transaction are those of TalenTec.

TalenTec was deemed the accounting acquirer for purposes of the transaction based on an evaluation of the following facts and circumstances:

Basis of Pro Forma Presentation

In accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X, pro forma adjustments to the combined historical financial information of TTNP, PubCo and TalenTec, give effect to transaction accounting adjustments that (1) depict in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet the accounting required to be applied to the Transactions pursuant to U.S. GAAP assuming those adjustments were made as of January 31, 2025 and (2) depict in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations the effects of the pro forma balance sheet adjustments, assuming those adjustments were made as of the beginning of the earliest period presented. Accordingly, non-recurring pro forma adjustments that impact the pro forma income of the Combined Company have been recorded to the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the six months ended January 1, 2025, and for the year ended July 31, 2024, as the Transactions are assumed to have occurred on August 1, 2023 for purposes of presenting pro forma statement of operations information. TTNP, PubCo and TalenTec have not had any historical relationship prior to the Transactions, thus preparation of the accompanying pro forma financial information did not require any adjustments with respect to such activities.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been presented to provide relevant information necessary for an understanding of the Combined Company subsequent to completion of the Transactions. However, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been presented for illustrative purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of the operating results and financial position that would have been achieved had the Transactions occurred on the dates indicated, and does not reflect adjustments for any anticipated synergies, operating efficiencies, tax savings or cost savings. The pro forma adjustments represent estimates based on information available as of the dates of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information and are subject to change as additional information becomes available. Assumptions and estimates underlying the pro forma adjustments set forth in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information are described in the accompanying notes. The actual financial position and results of operations of the Combined Company subsequent to consummation of the Transactions may differ significantly from the pro forma amounts reflected herein.

NOTE 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The transaction between TTNP, PubCo and TalenTec is accounted for as a reverse recapitalization in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Under this method of accounting, TTNP is treated as the acquired company for financial reporting purposes, and TalenTec is treated as the accounting acquirer. The transaction is treated as the equivalent of TalenTec issuing stock for the net assets of TTNP, accompanied by a recapitalization. The net assets of TTNP are stated at historical cost, with no goodwill or intangible assets recorded. Operations prior to the transaction are those of TalenTec.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet assumes that the Transactions were completed on January 31, 2025. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations for the six months ended January 31, 2025 and for the year ended July 31, 2024 give pro forma effect to the Transactions as if they had occurred on August 1, 2023. Non-recurring pro forma adjustments that impact the pro forma income of the Combined Company have been recorded to the pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the six months ended January 31, 2025 and for the year ended July 31, 2024, as the Transactions are assumed to have occurred on August 1, 2023 for purposes of presenting pro forma income statement information.

TTNP has a fiscal year end of December 31, while TalenTec has a fiscal year end of July 31, accordingly the most recent period ended balance sheet date for TTNP is March 31, 2025 and for TalenTec is January 31, 2025. As TalenTec has been determined to be the accounting acquirer, its latest balance sheet date was used for pro forma presentation (January 31, 2025) and their prior fiscal year end was used for prior annual period presentation. According to SEC Regulation S-X, when the acquiree’s year end is more than one quarter different than the registrant’s year end, the acquirer combines its annual income statement with the acquiree’s for a 12-month period that ends within one quarter of the registrant’s year end. Accordingly, in the pro forma financial statements the following periods have been combined:

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information was derived from, and should be read in conjunction with, the following historical financial statements and the accompanying notes:

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information does not give effect to any management adjustments or anticipated synergies, operating efficiencies, cost savings or other benefits that may result from consummation of the Transactions. The pro forma adjustments are based on currently available information and certain assumptions and methodologies believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Management has made significant estimates and assumptions in its determination of the pro forma adjustments and, accordingly, actual amounts may differ materially from the information presented. However, management believes that its assumptions and estimates provide a reasonable basis for presenting all of the significant effects of the Transactions based on information available to management at the time, and the pro forma adjustments give appropriate effect to those assumptions and are applied in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is not necessarily indicative of what the actual results of operations and financial position of the Combined Company would have been had the Transactions taken place on the dates indicated, nor is the information indicative of the future consolidated results of operations or financial position of the Combined Company.

NOTE 2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Upon consummation of the Business Combination, management will perform a comprehensive review of the two entities’ accounting policies. As a result of the review, management may identify differences between the accounting policies of the two entities which, when conformed, could have a material impact on the financial statements of the Post-Combination Company. Based on its initial analysis, management did not identify any differences that would have a material impact on the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information. As a result, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information does not assume any differences in accounting policies.

NOTE 3. ADJUSTMENTS TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED BALANCE SHEET

The pro forma notes and adjustments, based on preliminary estimates that could change materially as additional information is obtained, are as follows:
