NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FEBRUARY 28, 2026

(Unaudited)

Note 1 — Organization, Plan of Business Operations and Going Concern Consideration

Iron Horse Acquisitions Corp. II (the “Company”) was incorporated in Delaware on November 26, 2024 as a blank check company for the purpose of entering into a merger, stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or other similar business combination, one or more businesses or entities (a “Business Combination”) and transferred by way of continuation to the Cayman Islands as an exempted company incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands on July 25, 2025. On September 12, 2025, Iron Horse Acquisition II Corp. was incorporated in the Cayman Islands. On September 30, 2025, the Company merged with Iron Horse Acquisition II Corp, which is the surviving entity, and the continuing company.

As noted above, on September 12, 2025, Iron Horse Acquisition II Corp. was incorporated in the Cayman Islands. On September 18, 2025, IRHO SPAC Sponsor LLC (the” Sponsor”), contributed $32,000 for the issuance of 5,750,000 ordinary shares, $0.0001 par value per share (the “ordinary shares”) at approximately $0.0056 per share, of which up to 750,000 ordinary shares are subject to forfeiture to the extent that the over-allotment option is not exercised by the underwriters in full or in part, so that the initial shareholders will continue to own approximately 20% of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares after the Initial Public Offering (assuming they do not purchase any units in the Initial Public Offering). Previously, Bengochea SPAC Sponsors II LLC, the “previous sponsor” held 5,750,000 ordinary shares in Iron Horse Acquisitions Corp II, which shares are now cancelled. On September 30, 2025, the Company merged with Iron Horse Acquisition II Corp, which is the surviving entity, and the continuing company.

Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 805-50, Business Combinations, provides specific guidance on accounting for certain transactions related to business combinations, including asset acquisitions (transactions not meeting the business definition) and pushdown accounting (an optional method to reflect a parent’s acquisition in a subsidiary’s financial statements), and addresses transactions between entities under common control. This transaction is being accounted for as a common control transaction whereby the assets and liabilities are recorded at their historical cost rather than fair value and net assets received are reported retrospectively presented.

The Company’s efforts to identify a prospective target business will not be limited to a particular industry or geographic region although it intends to initially focus on target companies within the media and entertainment industry with a primary focus on the United States, and in particular on identifying attractive targets among content studios and film production, family entertainment, animation, music, gaming, e-sports, talent management, and talent-facing brands and businesses.

As of February 28, 2026, the Company had not yet commenced any operations. All activity from November 26, 2024 (inception) through February 28, 2026 relates to the Company’s formation, initial public offering (the “Initial Public Offering”), which is described below, and subsequent to the Initial Public Offering, identifying a target company for a Business Combination. The Company has selected November 30 as its fiscal year-end.

The registration statement for the Company’s Initial Public Offering was declared effective on December 16, 2025. On December 18, 2025, the Company consummated the Initial Public Offering of 23,000,000 units (the “Units” and, with respect to the ordinary shares included in the Units offered, the “Public Shares”), which includes the full exercise by the underwriters of their over-allotment option in the amount of 3,000,000 Units, at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $230,000,000. Each Unit consists of one Public Share and one right (“Share Right”) to receive one tenth (1/10) of one ordinary share upon the consummation of an initial Business Combination (“Public Right”).

Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the sale of 570,000 units (the “Private Placement Units”) at a price of $10.00 per Private Placement Unit, in a private placement to the Sponsor and Cantor Fitzgerald & Co., the representative of the underwriters, generating gross proceeds of $5,700,000. Each Private Placement Unit consists of one ordinary share (“Private Placement Share”) and one Share Right to receive one tenth (1/10) of one ordinary share upon the consummation of an initial Business Combination (“Private Placement Right”). Of those 570,000 Private Placement Units, the Sponsor purchased 370,000 Private Placement Units, Cantor Fitzgerald & Co. purchased 200,000 Private Placement Units.

Transaction costs amounted to $15,590,100, consisting of $4,000,000 of cash underwriting fee, $10,950,000 of deferred underwriting fee, and $640,100 of other offering costs.

The Company listed the Units on the Nasdaq Global Market (“NASDAQ”). Pursuant to the NASDAQ listing rules, the Company’s initial Business Combination must be with a target business or businesses whose collective fair market value is at least equal to 80% of the balance in the Trust Account at the time of the execution of a definitive agreement for such Business Combination (net of taxes payable and deferred underwriting commissions), although this may entail simultaneous acquisitions of several target businesses. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to effect a Business Combination successfully.

IRON HORSE ACQUISITION II CORP.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FEBRUARY 28, 2026

(Unaudited)

Note 1 — Organization, Plan of Business Operations and Going Concern Consideration (cont.)

Following the closing of the Initial Public Offering, on December 18, 2025, an amount of $230,000,000 ($10.00 per Unit) from the net proceeds of the sale of the Units and the Private Placement Units was placed in the trust account (the “Trust Account”), located in the United States, with Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company acting as trustee, and held as cash items or invested in United States government treasury bills, bonds or notes, having a maturity of 185 days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 promulgated under the Investment Company Act until the earlier of (i) the consummation of the Company’s initial Business Combination (ii) the redemption of any ordinary shares included in the Units being sold in the Initial Public Offering that have been properly tendered in connection with a shareholder vote to amend the Company’s memorandum and articles of association to modify the substance or timing of its obligation to redeem 100% of such ordinary shares if it does not complete the Initial Business Combination within 24 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering (“Combination Period”); and (iii) the Company’s failure to consummate a Business Combination within the prescribed time. If the Company is unable to consummate an initial Business Combination within such time period, the Company will redeem 100% of its outstanding public shares for a pro rata portion of the funds held in the Trust Account, 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 for taxes (and less up to $100,000 of interest which can be used for liquidation expenses and $175,000 for additional working capital), divided by the number of then outstanding public shares, subject to applicable law and as further described herein, and then seek to dissolve and liquidate. Placing funds in the Trust Account may not protect those funds from third party claims against the Company. Although the Company will seek to have all vendors, service providers, prospective target businesses or other entities it engages, execute agreements with the Company waiving any claim of any kind in or to any monies held in the Trust Account, there is no guarantee that such persons will execute such agreements.

The remaining net proceeds (not held in the Trust Account) may be used to pay for business, legal and accounting due diligence on prospective acquisitions and continuing general and administrative expenses. Additionally, certain interest earned on the Trust Account balance may be released to the Company to pay the Company’s tax obligations.

The Company, after signing a definitive agreement for the acquisition of a target business, is required to provide shareholders who acquired ordinary shares sold as part of the units in this offering (“Public Shares”) in the Initial Public Offering (“Public Shareholders”) with the opportunity to redeem their Public Shares for a pro rata share of the Trust Account. The holders of the Founder Shares will agree to vote any shares they then hold in favor of any proposed Business Combination and will waive any redemption rights with respect to these shares pursuant to letter agreements executed prior to the Initial Public Offering.

In connection with any proposed Business Combination, the Company will seek shareholder approval of an initial Business Combination at a meeting called for such purpose at which Public Shareholders may seek to redeem their Public Shares, regardless of whether they vote for or against the proposed Business Combination. Alternatively, the Company may conduct a tender offer and allow redemptions in connection therewith. If the Company seeks shareholder approval of an initial Business Combination, any Public Shareholder voting either for or against such proposed Business Combination or not voting at all will be entitled to demand that his Public Shares be redeemed for a full 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 or necessary to pay its taxes). Holders of rights sold as part of the Units will not be entitled to vote on the proposed Business Combination and will have no redemption or liquidation rights with respect to the ordinary shares underlying such rights.

If the Company is unable to complete its initial Business Combination and expends all of the net proceeds from the sale of the Private Placement Units not deposited in the Trust Account, without taking into account any interest earned on the Trust Account, the initial per-share redemption price for ordinary shares is $10.00. The proceeds deposited in the Trust Account could, however, become subject to claims of the Company’s creditors that are in preference to the claims of the Company’s shareholders. In addition, if the Company is forced to file a bankruptcy case or an involuntary bankruptcy case is filed against it that is not dismissed, the proceeds held in the Trust Account could be subject to applicable bankruptcy law, and may be included in its bankruptcy estate and subject to the claims of third parties with priority over the claims of the Company’s ordinary shareholders. Therefore, the actual per-share redemption price may be less than approximately $10.00.

Note 1 — Organization, Plan of Business Operations and Going Concern Consideration (cont.)

Going Concern Consideration

As of February 28, 2026, the Company had cash of $718,100, working capital of $716,662, and shareholders’ deficit of $10,166,725. The Company has since completed its Initial Public Offering at which time capital in excess of the funds deposited in Trust Account and/or used to fund offering expenses was released to the Company for general capital purposes. Further, the Company expects to incur significant costs in pursuit to consummate a business combination and the Company’s business plan is dependent on the completion of a business combination within a prescribed period of time and if not completed will cease all operations except for the purpose of liquidating. In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with FASB ASC 205-40, “Financial Statement Presentation — Going Concern,” the Company’s management has determined that the Company does not believe it will need to raise additional funds in order to meet the expenditures required to operate its business. However, if the estimate of the costs of identifying a target business, undertaking in-depth due diligence and negotiating a Business Combination are less than the actual amount necessary to do so, the Company may have insufficient funds available to operate its business prior to the initial Business Combination. Management has determined that the Company has sufficient funds to finance the working capital needs of the Company within one year from the date of issuance of the accompanying unaudited financial statements.

Risks and Uncertainties

The United States and global markets are experiencing volatility and disruption following the geopolitical instability resulting from the ongoing Russia-Ukraine conflict, Israel-Hamas conflict and the United States-Iran-Israel conflict. In response to the ongoing Russia-Ukraine conflict, the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (“NATO”) deployed additional military forces to eastern Europe, and the United States, the United Kingdom, the European Union and other countries have announced various sanctions and restrictive actions against Russia, Belarus and related individuals and entities, including the removal of certain financial institutions from the Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication (SWIFT) payment system. Certain countries, including the United States, have also provided and may continue to provide military aid or other assistance to Ukraine and to Israel, increasing geopolitical tensions among a number of nations. The invasion of Ukraine by Russia and the Israel-Hamas conflict and the resulting measures that have been taken, and could be taken in the future, by NATO, the United States, the United Kingdom, the European Union, Israel and its neighboring states and other countries have created global security concerns that could have a lasting impact on regional and global economies. Although the length and impact of the ongoing conflicts are highly unpredictable, they could lead to market disruptions, including significant volatility in commodity prices, credit and capital markets, as well as supply chain interruptions and increased cyber-attacks against U.S. companies. Additionally, any resulting sanctions could adversely affect the global economy and financial markets and lead to instability and lack of liquidity in capital markets.

Any of the above-mentioned factors, or any other negative impact on the global economy, capital markets or other geopolitical conditions resulting from the Russian invasion of Ukraine, the Israel-Hamas conflict and subsequent sanctions or related actions, could adversely affect the Company’s search for an initial Business Combination and any target business with which the Company may ultimately consummate an initial Business Combination.

Emerging Growth Company

The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, (the “Securities Act”), as modified by the Jumpstart our Business Startups Act of 2012, (the “JOBS Act”), and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.

Further, section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of the Company’s unaudited financial statements with another public company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accountant standards used.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the unaudited financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.

Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. The Company had $718,100 and $432 in cash as of February 28, 2026 and November 30, 2025, respectively, and no cash equivalents.

Cash and Investments Held in Trust Account

As of February 28, 2026 and November 30, 2025, the assets held in the Trust Account, amounted to $231,461,856 and $0, respectively. As of February 28, 2026, the assets held in the Trust Account are held in cash and in money market funds which are invested primarily in U.S. treasury securities. Investments in money market funds are presented on the accompanying unaudited balance sheets at fair value at the end of each reporting period. Interest and dividends earned from investments in these securities are included in the accompanying unaudited statements of operations.

Note 2 — Significant Accounting Policies (cont.)

Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of a cash account in a financial institution, which, at times, may exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation coverage limit of $250,000. The Company has not experienced losses on this account and management believes that the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such account.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the accompanying unaudited balance sheets, primarily due to their short-term nature.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes under ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes,” which requires an asset and liability approach to financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed for differences between the financial statements and tax bases of assets and liabilities that will result in future taxable or deductible amounts, based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

ASC Topic 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statements recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. The Company’s management determined that the Cayman Islands is the Company’s major tax jurisdiction. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. As of February 28, 2026 and November 30, 2025, there were no unrecognized tax benefits and no amounts accrued for interest and penalties. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviation from its position.

Effective July 25, 2025, the Company is considered to be an exempted Cayman Islands company with no connection to any other taxable jurisdiction and is presently not subject to income taxes or income tax filing requirements in the Cayman Islands or the United States. Prior to such date the Company was a Delaware entity and the provision for income taxes was deemed to be de minimis from November 26, 2024 (inception) through July 25, 2025.

Offering Costs

The Company complies with the requirements of the ASC 340-10-S99 and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 5A, “Expenses of Offering”. Offering costs consist principally of professional and registration fees that are related to the Initial Public Offering. FASB ASC 470-20, “Debt with Conversion and Other Options,” addresses the allocation of proceeds from the issuance of convertible debt into its equity and debt components. The Company applies this guidance to allocate Initial Public Offering proceeds from the Units between ordinary shares and Share Rights, using the residual method by allocating Initial Public Offering proceeds first to the assigned value of the Public Rights and then to the ordinary shares. Offering costs allocated to the Public Shares were charged to temporary equity, and offering costs allocated to Public Rights and Private Placement Units were charged to shareholders’ deficit, as the Share Rights, after management’s evaluation, were accounted for under equity treatment.

Share Rights

The Company accounted for the Public and Private Placement Rights issued in connection with the Initial Public Offering and the private placement in accordance with the guidance contained in FASB ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging”. Accordingly, the Company evaluated and classified the Share Rights under equity treatment at their assigned value.

Ordinary Shares Subject to Possible Redemption

The Public Shares contain a redemption feature which allows for the redemption of such Public Shares in connection with the Company’s liquidation, or if there is a shareholder vote or tender offer in connection with the Company’s initial Business Combination. In accordance with ASC 480-10-S99, the Company classifies Public Shares subject to redemption outside of permanent equity as the redemption provisions are not solely within the control of the Company. The Company recognizes changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and will adjust the carrying value of redeemable shares to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Immediately upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company recognized the accretion from initial book value to redemption value. The change in the carrying value of redeemable shares will result in charges against additional paid-in capital (to the extent available) and accumulated deficit. Accordingly, as of February 28, 2026, ordinary shares subject to possible redemption are presented at redemption value as temporary equity, outside of the shareholders’ deficit section of the Company’s unaudited balance sheets. As of February 28, 2026, the ordinary shares subject to possible redemption reflected in the unaudited balance sheets are reconciled in the following table:

Gross proceeds	$	230,000,000
Less:
Proceeds allocated to Public Rights		(3,404,000	)
Ordinary shares issuance costs		(15,344,116	)
Plus:
Remeasurement of carrying value to redemption value		20,209,972
Ordinary Shares subject to possible redemption, February 28, 2026	$	231,461,856

Net Income (Loss) Per Ordinary Share

The Company complies with the accounting and disclosure requirements of FASB ASC Topic 260, “Earnings Per Share”. Net income (loss) per ordinary share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding for the period. Remeasurement associated with the redeemable ordinary shares is excluded from earnings per share as the redemption value approximates fair value.

The calculation of diluted net income (loss) per ordinary share does not consider the effect of the rights issued in connection with the (i) Initial Public Offering, and (ii) the private placement since the exercise of the rights are contingent upon the occurrence of future events. As of February 28, 2026, the rights are exercisable to purchase 2,357,000 ordinary shares in the aggregate. The weighted average of these shares was excluded from the calculation of diluted net income (loss) per ordinary share since the inclusion of such rights would be anti-dilutive. The rights cannot be converted to ordinary shares prior to an initial Business Combination, therefore, they have been classified as anti-dilutive.

The following table reflects the calculation of basic and diluted net income(loss) per ordinary share (in dollars, except per share amounts):

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In November 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-07, “Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures.” The amendments in this ASU require disclosures, on an annual and interim basis, of significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), as well as the aggregate amount of other segment items included in the reported measure of segment profit or loss. The ASU requires that a public entity disclose the title and position of the CODM and an explanation of how the CODM uses the reported measure(s) of segment profit or loss in assessing segment performance and deciding how to allocate resources. Public entities will be required to provide all annual disclosures currently required by Topic 280 in interim periods, and entities with a single reportable segment are required to provide all the disclosures required by the amendments in this ASU and existing segment disclosures in Topic 280. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted ASU 2023-07 on December 1, 2024.

Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards if currently adopted would have a material effect on the accompanying unaudited financial statements.

Note 3 — Initial Public Offering

In the Initial Public Offering on December 18, 2025, the Company sold 23,000,000 Units, which includes the full exercise by the underwriters of their over-allotment option in the amount of 3,000,000 Units, at a purchase price of $10.00 per Unit. Each Unit consists of one share of the Company’s ordinary shares, $0.0001 par value, and one Public Right to one-tenth (1/10) of one ordinary share upon the consummation of the Company’s initial Business Combination.

Note 4 — Private Placement

Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Sponsor and Cantor Fitzgerald & Co. purchased an aggregate of 570,000 Private Placement Units at a price of $10.00 per Private Placement Unit in a private placement. Each Unit consists of one Private Placement Share and one Private Placement Right to receive one tenth (1/10) of one ordinary share upon the consummation of an initial Business Combination. Of those 570,000 Private Placement Units, the Sponsor purchased 370,000 Private Placement Units and Cantor Fitzgerald & Co. purchased 200,000 Private Placement Units. The Private Placement Units are identical to the units sold in the Initial Public Offering, subject to certain limited exceptions.

Note 5 — Commitments and Contingencies

Registration Rights

The holders of the Founders Shares issued and outstanding, as well as the holders of the private placement units, including those to be issued upon conversion of the rights, and any rights the initial shareholders, officers, directors or their affiliates may be issued in payment of working capital loans made to the Company (and all underlying securities), will be entitled to registration rights pursuant to an agreement signed on December 16, 2025. The holders of a majority of these securities are entitled to make up to two demands that the Company register such securities. The holders of the majority of the Founders Shares can elect to exercise these registration rights at any time commencing three months prior to the date on which these ordinary shares are to be released from escrow. The holders of a majority of the public and private rights issued to our initial shareholders, officers, directors or their affiliates in payment of working capital loans made to the Company (or underlying securities) can elect to exercise these registration rights at any time after the Company consummates a Business Combination. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the underwriter may only make a demand on one occasion and only during the five-year period beginning on the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to our consummation of a Business Combination; provided, however, that the underwriter may participate in a “piggy-back” registration only during the seven-year period beginning on the effective date of the Initial Public Offering. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.

Note 5 — Commitments and Contingencies (cont.)

Underwriting Agreement

The Company granted the underwriters a 45-day option from the date of Initial Public Offering to purchase up to 3,000,000 additional Units to cover over-allotments, if any, at the Initial Public Offering price less the underwriting discounts and commissions. On December 18, 2025, the underwriters elected to fully exercise their over-allotment option to purchase an additional 3,000,000 Units at a price of $10.00 per Unit.

The underwriter were entitled to a cash underwriting discount of 2.0% of the gross proceeds of the Initial Public Offering, or $4,000,000, which was paid upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering.

Additionally, the underwriters were entitled to a deferred underwriting discount of 4.50% of the gross proceeds of the Initial Public Offering held in the Trust Account other than those sold pursuant to the underwriters’ over-allotment option and 6.50% of the gross proceeds sold pursuant to the underwriters’ over-allotment option, or $10,950,000 in the aggregate. The deferred underwriting discount will become payable to the underwriter from the amounts held in the Trust Account solely in the event the Company completes its Initial Business Combination.

Founder’s Shares

On November 29, 2024, the Company issued an aggregate of 12,321,429 ordinary shares (the “Founder Shares”) for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000. As of November 30, 2024, the $25,000 had not been received for the issuance of the Founder Shares and it is presented as a subscription receivable on the equity statement. Subsequently on December 27, 2024, the Company received the $25,000 for the Founder Shares. On May 8, 2025, through a share recapitalization, the Company surrendered 6,571,429 ordinary shares, as a result of which the Sponsor has purchased and holds an aggregate of 5,750,000 ordinary shares. All share and per share data have been retrospectively presented. The Founder Shares include an aggregate of up to 750,000 shares subject to forfeiture by the holders to the extent that the underwriters’ over-allotment is not exercised in full or in part, so that the holders will collectively own 20% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares after the Initial Public Offering assuming the initial shareholders do not purchase any Public Shares in the Initial Public Offering. The holders of the Founder Shares will agree not to transfer, assign or sell any of the Founder Shares (except to certain permitted transferees) until (i) 180 days after the completion of a Business and (ii) if, subsequent to a Business Combination, the Company completes a liquidation, merger, stock exchange or other similar transaction which results in all of the Company’s shareholders having the right to exchange their ordinary shares for cash, securities or other property.

The Company had initially engaged D. Boral Capital LLC (“D. Boral”) to act as the lead underwriter in connection with the Initial Public Offering. In May 2025, D. Boral and the Company agreed to terminate such engagement, and in consideration therefore, the Sponsor has agreed to transfer 10,000 founder shares to D. Boral in full settlement of any fees incurred by D. Boral in connection with their engagement (the “D. Boral Shares”). The D. Boral Shares will be subject to the same lock-up and transfer restrictions as the other holders of founder shares.

On September 18, 2025, the Sponsor contributed $32,000 for the issuance of 5,750,000 ordinary shares, $0.0001 par value per share at approximately $0.0056 per share, of which up to 750,000 ordinary shares are subject to forfeiture to the extent that the over-allotment option is not exercised by the underwriters in full or in part, so that the initial shareholders will continue to own approximately 20% of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares after the Initial Public Offering. Previously, Bengochea SPAC Sponsors II LLC, the “previous sponsor” held 5,750,000 ordinary shares in Iron Horse Acquisitions Corp II, which shares are now cancelled. On September 30, 2025, the Company merged with Iron Horse Acquisition II Corp, which is the surviving entity, and the continuing company. On December 18, 2025, the underwriters exercised their over-allotment option in full as part of the closing of the Initial Public Offering. As such, the 750,000 Founder Shares are no longer subject to forfeiture as of February 28, 2026.

Promissory Note — Related Party

On October 1, 2025, the Company entered into a promissory note agreement with the Sponsor for $300,000. The promissory note is non-interest bearing, and due the earlier of April 30, 2026 or the date with the Company consummates the Initial Public Offering. As of November 30, 2025, the Company had outstanding borrowings of $300,000 under the promissory note. On December 18, 2025, the Company repaid the total outstanding balance of the promissory note amounting to $300,000. Borrowings under the Note are no longer available as of February 28, 2026.

Due from Sponsor

The Company paid the Sponsor an aggregate amount of $38,718 in excess of the outstanding promissory note balance at the closing of the Initial Public Offering. On December 22, 2025, the Sponsor wired the $38,718 back to the Company. As of February 28, 2026 and November 30, 2025, no balance was outstanding from the Sponsor.

Due to Sponsor

The Sponsor has paid certain offering and operating expenses on behalf of the Company. As of February 28, 2026 and November 30, 2025, the balance due to the Sponsor amounted to $1,762 and $11,914, respectively.

Working Capital Loans

In order to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Initial Shareholders, the Sponsor, the Company’s officers and directors or their affiliates may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds from time to time or at any time, as may be required. Each Working Capital Loan would be evidenced by a promissory note. The notes would either be paid upon consummation of our initial Business Combination, without interest, or, at holder’s discretion, if there are excess proceeds, upon consummation of this offering. In the event that the initial Business Combination does not close, we may use a portion of the working capital held outside the Trust Account to repay such loaned amounts, but no proceeds from our Trust Account would be used for such repayment. These loans would be repaid at completion of the initial Business Combination. As of February 28, 2026 and November 30, 2025, no Working Capital Loans were outstanding.

Note 7 — Shareholders’ Deficit

Preference Shares

The Company is authorized to issue 1,000,000 shares of preference shares with a par value of $0.0001 per share with such designation, rights and preferences as may be determined from time to time by the Company’s board of directors. As of February 28, 2026 and November 30, 2025, there were no preference shares issued or outstanding.

Ordinary Shares

The Company is authorized to issue 50,000,000 ordinary shares with a par value of $0.0001 per share. As of February 28, 2026 and November 30, 2025, there were 6,320,000 and 5,750,000 ordinary shares issued and outstanding, excluding 23,000,000 and 0 shares subject to possible redemption, respectively. Subject to certain limited exceptions, these shares will not be transferred, assigned, sold, or released from escrow for a period ending on the 180-day anniversary of the date of the consummation of the initial business combination, or earlier if, subsequent to the initial Business Combination, the Company consummates a liquidation, merger, share exchange or other similar transaction which results in all of the Company’s shareholders having the right to exchange their ordinary shares for cash, securities or other property.

Rights

Each holder of a right will receive one-tenth (1/10) of one ordinary share upon consummation of a Business Combination, even if the holder of such right redeemed all shares held by it in connection with a Business Combination. No fractional shares will be issued upon exchange of the rights. No additional consideration will be required to be paid by a holder of rights in order to receive its additional shares upon consummation of a Business Combination as the consideration related thereto has been included in the unit purchase price paid for by investors in the Initial Public Offering. If the Company enters into a definitive agreement for a Business Combination in which the Company will not be the surviving entity, the definitive agreement will provide for the holders of rights to receive the same per share consideration the holders of the ordinary shares will receive in the transaction on an as-converted into ordinary shares basis and each holder of a right will be required to affirmatively convert its rights in order to receive one-tenth (1/10) of one share underlying each right (without paying additional consideration).

Additionally, in no event will the Company be required to net cash settle the rights. If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period and the Company liquidates the funds held in the Trust Account, holders of rights will not receive any of such funds with respect to their rights, nor will they receive any distribution from the Company’s assets held outside of the Trust Account with respect to such rights. Accordingly, the rights may expire worthless.

Note 8 — Fair Value Measurements

The fair value of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities reflects management’s estimate of amounts that the Company would have received in connection with the sale of the assets or paid in connection with the transfer of the liabilities in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In connection with measuring the fair value of its assets and liabilities, the Company seeks to maximize the use of observable inputs (market data obtained from independent sources) and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs (internal assumptions about how market participants would price assets and liabilities). The following fair value hierarchy is used to classify assets and liabilities based on the observable inputs and unobservable inputs used in order to value the assets and liabilities:

Level 1:

Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. An active market for an asset or liability is a market in which transactions for the asset or liability occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.

Level 2:

Observable inputs other than Level 1 inputs. Examples of Level 2 inputs include quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities and quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.

Level 3:

Unobservable inputs based on assessment of the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

At February 28, 2026, cash and investments held in the Trust Account were comprised of $567 in cash and $231,461,289 in money market funds which are invested primarily in U.S. Treasury Securities. Through February 28, 2026, the Company withdrew $175,000 of interest earned on the Trust Account for working capital purposes, of which $175,000 was withdrawn during the three months ended February 28, 2026.

The following table presents information about the Company’s assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis at February 28, 2026 and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation inputs the Company utilized to determine such fair value:

Description	Level		February 28, 2026
Assets:
Investments held in Trust Account		1	$	231,461,289

The fair value of the Public Rights issued in the Initial Public Offering is $3,404,000, or $0.148 per Public Right. The Public Rights have been classified within shareholders’ deficit and will not require remeasurement after issuance. The Public Rights were classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy at the measurement dates due to the use of unobservable inputs inherent in assumptions related to the market adjustments as noted below. The following table presents the quantitative information regarding market assumptions used in the valuation of the Public Rights:

	December 18, 2025
Unit price	$	9.95
Stock price	$	9.80
Pre-adjusted value per Right	$	0.98
Market adjustment⁽¹⁾		15.13	%

(1)

The Market adjustment reflects additional factors, which may include the likelihood of Business Combination occurring, market perception of lack of available or suitable targets, or possible post-acquisition decline of stock price prior to beginning of the exercise period. The adjustment is determined by comparing traded Public Right prices to simulated model outputs. The market adjustment was determined by calibrating traded Public Rights prices as of the valuation dates.

Note 9 — Segment Information

ASC Topic 280, “Segment Reporting,” establishes standards for companies to report in their financial statement information about operating segments, products, services, geographic areas, and major customers. Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise for which separate financial information is available that is regularly evaluated by the Company’s CODM, or group, in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance.

The Company’s CODM has been identified as the Chief Financial Officer, who reviews the assets, operating results, and financial metrics for the Company as a whole to make decisions about allocating resources and assessing financial performance. Accordingly, management has determined that the Company only has one operating segment.

The CODM assesses performance for the single segment and decides how to allocate resources based on net income or loss that also is reported on the unaudited statements of operations as net income or loss. The measure of segment assets is reported on the unaudited balance sheets as total assets. When evaluating the Company’s performance and making key decisions regarding resource allocation the CODM reviews several key metrics, which include the following:

	February 28, 2026		November 30, 2025
Cash	$	718,100	$	432
Cash and investments held in Trust Account	$	231,461,856	$	—

	For the Three Months Ended February 28,
	2026		2025
General, formation and operational costs	$	277,959	$	72,670
Interest earned on cash and investments held in Trust Account	$	1,636,856	$	—

The CODM reviews the position of total assets available with the Company to assess if the Company has sufficient resources available to discharge its liabilities. The CODM is provided with details of cash and liquid resources available with the Company. The CODM reviews the interest earned on the Trust Account to measure and monitor shareholder value and determine the most effective strategy of investment with the Trust Account funds while maintaining compliance with the Trust Agreement.

General, formation and operational costs and interest earned on investments held in Trust Account are reviewed and monitored by the CODM to manage and forecast cash to ensure enough capital is available to complete a Business Combination or similar transaction within the completion window. The CODM also reviews general, formation and operational costs to manage, maintain and enforce all contractual agreements to ensure costs are aligned with all agreements and budget. General, formation and operational costs, as reported on the unaudited statements of operations, are the significant segment expenses provided to the CODM on a regular basis.

Note 10 — Subsequent Events

The Company evaluated subsequent events and transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date up to the date that the unaudited financial statements were issued. Based upon this review, the Company did not identify any subsequent events that would have required adjustment or disclosure in the unaudited financial statements.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

References in this report (the “Quarterly Report”) to “we,” “us” or the “Company” refer to Iron Horse Acquisition II Corp. References to our “management” or our “management team” refer to our officers and directors, and references to the “Sponsor” refer to IRHO SPAC Sponsor LLC. The following discussion and analysis of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto contained elsewhere in this Quarterly Report. Certain information contained in the discussion and analysis set forth below includes forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties.

Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Exchange Act that are not historical facts and involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expected and projected.

Overview

We are a blank check company initially incorporated as a Delaware corporation on November 26, 2024, formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or other similar business combination with one or more businesses. On July 25, 2025, we transferred, by way of continuation, to the Cayman Islands. On September 12, 2025, Iron Horse Acquisition II Corp. was incorporated in the Cayman Islands. On September 30, 2025, we merged with Iron Horse Acquisition II Corp, which is the surviving entity, and we are now incorporated as a Cayman Islands exempted company. We intend to effectuate our business combination using cash derived from the proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and the sale of the Private Placement Units, our shares, debt or a combination of cash, shares and debt.

We expect to continue to incur significant costs in the pursuit of our acquisition plans. We cannot assure you that our plans to complete a Business Combination will be successful.

Results of Operations

We have neither engaged in any operations nor generated any revenues to date. Our only activities from November 26, 2024 (inception) through February 28, 2026 were organizational activities, those necessary to prepare for the Initial Public Offering, described below, and, after our Initial Public Offering, identifying a target company for a business combination. We do not expect to generate any operating revenues until after the completion of our Business Combination. We generate non-operating income in the form of interest income on cash and investments held in the trust account. We incur expenses as a result of being a public company (for legal, financial reporting, accounting and auditing compliance), as well as for due diligence expenses.

For the three months ended February 28, 2026, we had a net income of $1,358,897, which consists of interest earned on cash and investments held in the Trust Account of $1,636,856, offset by general, formation and operational costs of $277,959.

For the three months ended February 28, 2025, we had a net loss of $72,670, which consists of general and administrative costs of $72,670.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

On December 18, 2025, we consummated the Initial Public Offering of 23,000,000 Units, which includes the full exercise by the underwriters of their over-allotment option in the amount of 3,000,000 Units, at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $230,000,000. Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the sale of 570,000 Private Placement Units at a price of $10.00 per Private Placement Unit, in a private placement to the Sponsor and Cantor Fitzgerald & Co., generating gross proceeds of $5,700,000. Of those 570,000 Private Placement Units, the Sponsor purchased 370,000 Private Placement Units, Cantor Fitzgerald & Co. purchased 200,000 Private Placement Units.

Following the Initial Public Offering, the full exercise of the over-allotment option, and the sale of the Private Units, a total of $230,000,000 was placed in the Trust Account. We incurred transaction costs of $15,590,100, consisting of $4,000,000 of cash underwriting fee, $10,950,000 of deferred underwriting fee, and $640,100 of other offering costs.

For the three months ended February 28, 2026, cash used in operating activities was $473,126. Net income of $1,358,897 was affected by interest earned on cash and investments held in the Trust Account of $1,636,856. Changes in operating assets and liabilities used $195,167 of cash from operating activities.

For the three months ended February 28, 2025, cash used in operating activities was $51,470. Net loss of $72,670 was affected by changes in operating assets and liabilities provided $21,200 of cash for operating activities.

As of February 28, 2026, we had cash and investments held in the Trust Account of $ $231,461,856 (including $1,636,856 of interest income). We intend to use substantially all of the funds held in the Trust Account, including any amounts representing interest earned on the Trust Account (which interest shall be net of any permitted withdrawals and excluding deferred underwriting commissions), to complete our Business Combination. To the extent that our share capital or debt is used, in whole or in part, as consideration to complete our Business Combination, the remaining proceeds held in the Trust Account will be used as working capital to finance the operations of the target business or businesses, make other acquisitions and pursue our growth strategies.

As of February 28, 2026, we had cash of $718,100. We intend to use the funds held outside the Trust Account primarily to identify and evaluate target businesses, perform business due diligence on prospective target businesses, travel to and from the offices, plants or similar locations of prospective target businesses or their representatives or owners, review corporate documents and material agreements of prospective target businesses, and structure, negotiate and complete a Business Combination.

In order to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor or certain of the Company’s officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds as may be required. If the Company completes a Business Combination, the Company would repay the Working Capital Loans. In the event that a Business Combination does not close, the Company may use a portion of the working capital held outside the Trust Account to repay the Working Capital Loans but no proceeds from the Trust Account would be used to repay the Working Capital Loans. Up to $1,500,000 of such Working Capital Loans may be convertible into private placement units of the post-Business Combination entity at a price of $10.00 per unit at the option of the lender. The units would be identical to the Private Placement Units.

We do not believe we will need to raise additional funds in order to meet the expenditures required for operating our business. However, if our estimate of the costs of identifying a target business, undertaking in-depth due diligence and negotiating a Business Combination are less than the actual amount necessary to do so, we may have insufficient funds available to operate our business prior to our Business Combination. Moreover, we may need to obtain additional financing either to complete our Business Combination or because we become obligated to redeem a significant number of our Public Shares upon consummation of our Business Combination, in which case we may issue additional securities or incur debt in connection with such Business Combination.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no obligations, assets or liabilities, which would be considered off-balance sheet arrangements as of February 28, 2026. We do not participate in transactions that create relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, often referred to as variable interest entities, which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements. We have not entered into any off-balance sheet financing arrangements, established any special purpose entities, guaranteed any debt or commitments of other entities, or purchased any non-financial assets.

Contractual obligations

Underwriting Agreement

The underwriters were entitled to a deferred underwriting discount of 4.50% of the gross proceeds of the Initial Public Offering held in the Trust Account other than those sold pursuant to the underwriters’ over-allotment option and 6.50% of the gross proceeds sold pursuant to the underwriters’ over-allotment option, or $10,950,000 in the aggregate. The deferred underwriting discount will become payable to the underwriter from the amounts held in the Trust Account solely in the event the Company completes its Initial Business Combination.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of unaudited financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and income and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. We have not identified any critical accounting estimates as of February 28, 2026.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on our unaudited financial statements.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Not required for smaller reporting companies.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial and accounting officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the fiscal quarter ended February 28, 2026, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial and accounting officer have concluded that during the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at a reasonable assurance level and, accordingly, provided reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fiscal quarter of 2026 covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

Factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those in this report include the risk factors described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K and final prospectus for its Initial Public Offering filed with the SEC.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.

On December 18, 2025, we consummated the Initial Public Offering of 23,000,000 Units, which includes the full exercise by the underwriters of their over-allotment option in the amount of 3,000,000 Units, at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $230,000,000. Cantor acted as sole book-running manager, of the Initial Public Offering. The securities in the offering were registered under the Securities Act on registration statement on Form S-1 (No. 333-284331). The Securities and Exchange Commission declared the registration statements effective on December 18, 2025.

Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the sale of 570,000 Private Placement Units at a price of $10.00 per Private Placement Unit, in a private placement to the Sponsor and Cantor Fitzgerald & Co., generating gross proceeds of $5,700,000. Of those 570,000 Private Placement Units, the Sponsor purchased 370,000 Private Placement Units, Cantor Fitzgerald & Co. purchased 200,000 Private Placement Units. Each Unit consists of one Private Placement Share and one Private Placement Right to receive one tenth (1/10) of one ordinary share upon the consummation of an initial Business Combination. The issuance was made pursuant to the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.

The Private Placement Units are identical to the units sold in the Initial Public Offering, subject to certain limited exceptions.

Of the gross proceeds received from the Initial Public Offering, the exercise of the over-allotment option and the Private Placement Units, an aggregate of $230,000,000 was placed in the Trust Account.

We incurred a total transaction cost of $15,590,100, consisting of $4,000,000 cash underwriting fee, $10,950,000 of deferred underwriting fee, and $640,100 of other offering costs related to the Initial Public Offering.
