Note 1 - Description of Organization and Business Operations

Spartan Acquisition Corp. II (the “Company”) was incorporated in Delaware on August 17, 2020. The Company was formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses (the “Initial Business Combination”). 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”).

As of June 30, 2021, the Company had not commenced any operations. All activity for the period from August 17, 2020 (inception) to June 30, 2021 relates to the Company’s formation and the initial public offering (the “Initial Public Offering”) and since the closing of the Initial Public Offering (as described below), the search for a prospective Initial Business Combination. The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after completion of its Initial Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company will generate non-operating income in the form of interest income from the net proceeds derived from the Initial Public Offering. The Company has selected December 31st as its fiscal year end. The Company’s sponsor is Spartan Acquisition Sponsor II LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Sponsor”).

Initial Public Offering

The registration statement for the Company’s Initial Public Offering was declared effective on November 24, 2020. On November 30, 2020, the Company consummated its Initial Public Offering of 34,500,000 units (each, a “Unit” and collectively, the “Units”), including the issuance of 4,500,000 Units as a result of the underwriters’ exercise in full of its over-allotment option, at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of approximately $345.0 million, and incurring offering costs of approximately $19.7 million, inclusive of approximately $12.1 million in deferred underwriting commissions (Note 5).

Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the private placement (the “Private Placement”) of 9,900,000 warrants (each, a “Private Placement Warrant” and collectively, the “Private Placement Warrants”), at a price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant to the Sponsor, generating proceeds of $9.9 million (Note 4).

Upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering and the Private Placement, $345.0 million ($10.00 per Unit) of the net proceeds of the sale of the Units in the Initial Public Offering and of the Private Placement Warrants in the Private Placement were placed in a trust account (the “Trust Account”) (described below).

Trust Account

The proceeds held in the Trust Account were invested only in U.S. government securities with a maturity of 185 days or less or in money market funds that meet certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), and that invest only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations, as determined by the Company. Funds will remain in the Trust Account until the earlier of (i) the consummation of the Initial Business Combination or (ii) the distribution of the Trust Account proceeds as described below. The remaining proceeds outside the Trust Account may be used to pay for business, legal and accounting due diligence on prospective acquisitions and continuing general and administrative expenses.

The Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides that, other than the withdrawal of interest to pay franchise and income taxes (less up to $100,000 to pay dissolution expenses), none of the funds held in the Trust Account will be released until the earliest of: (i) the completion of the Initial Business Combination; (ii) the redemption of any shares of Class A common stock included in the Units (the “Public Shares”) sold in the Initial Public Offering that have been properly tendered in connection with a stockholder vote to amend the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation to affect the substance or timing of its obligation to redeem 100% of such Public Shares if it has not consummated an Initial Business Combination within 24 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering, or November 30, 2022 (or 27 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering, or February 28, 2023, if the Company has executed a letter of intent, agreement in principle or definitive agreement for an Initial Business Combination within 24 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering) (the “Combination Period”); or (iii) the redemption of 100% of the Public Shares if the Company is unable to complete an Initial Business Combination within the Combination Period. The proceeds deposited in the Trust Account could become subject to the claims of the Company’s creditors, if any, which could have priority over the claims of the Company’s public stockholders.

Business Combination

On July 9, 2021 (the “Closing Date”), Sunlight Financial Holdings Inc., a Delaware corporation (formerly known as Spartan Acquisition Corp. II), consummated the previously announced business combination pursuant to that certain Business Combination Agreement (the “Business Combination Agreement”), dated January 23, 2021, by and among Spartan Acquisition Corp. II, a Delaware corporation (“Spartan”), SL Invest I Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Spartan (“MergerCo1”), SL Invest II LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly-owned subsidiary of Spartan (“MergerCo2”), SL Financial Investor I LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly-owned subsidiary of Spartan (“Holdings I”), SL Financial Investor II LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly-owned subsidiary of Spartan (“Holdings II”), SL Financial Holdings Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Spartan (“Spartan Sub”), SL Financial LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly-owned subsidiary of Spartan Sub (“OpCo Merger Sub” and collectively with MergerCo1, MergerCo2, Holdings I, Holdings II and Spartan Sub, the “Spartan Subsidiaries”), Sunlight Financial LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Sunlight”), FTV-Sunlight, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“FTV Blocker”), and Tiger Co-Invest B Sunlight Blocker LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Tiger Blocker,” and collectively with FTV Blocker, the “Blockers”). The transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement are collectively referred to herein as the “Business Combination.”

Upon the completion of the Business Combination and the other transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement (collectively, the “Transactions,” and such completion, the “Closing”), the post-combination company is organized in an “Up-C” structure, such that all of the material assets of the combined company are held by Sunlight, and the only material asset of the Company (together with its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Spartan Sub, Holdings I and Holdings II) is its indirect equity interests in Sunlight.

Founders Stock Agreement

In connection with the entry into the Business Combination Agreement, but effective as of the Closing of the Transactions, the Company and the initial stockholders entered into a Founders Stock Agreement (the “Founders Stock Agreement”), pursuant to which, among other things, subject to and effective immediately prior to the Closing of the Transactions, the Sponsor agreed to surrender up to 25% of the Class B common stock held by the Sponsor (at a 1:4 ratio to the percentage, if any, of redemptions by holders of Class A common stock); provided that no such surrender shall occur unless more than 5% of the outstanding shares of Class A common stock are actually redeemed by the Company.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of June 30, 2021, the Company had approximately $140,000 in its operating bank account and a working capital deficit of approximately $6.0 million.

Through June 30, 2021, the Company’s liquidity needs have been satisfied through a payment of $25,000 from the Sponsor to pay for certain offering costs in exchange for issuance of the Founder Shares (as defined in Note 4), the loan under the Note (see Note 4) of approximately $235,000 (see Note 4), and the net proceeds from the consummation of the Private Placement not held in the Trust Account. The Company fully repaid the Note on December 3, 2020. In addition, in order to finance transaction costs in connection with an Initial Business Combination, the Company’s officers, directors and initial stockholders may, but are not obligated to, provide the Company Working Capital Loans (see Note 4). As of June 30, 2021, there were no amounts outstanding under any Working Capital Loans.

In connection with the execution of the Business Combination Agreement, on January 23, 2021, Spartan entered into the Subscription Agreements with the New PIPE Investors (as defined in the Proxy Statement) pursuant to which the New PIPE Investors agreed to purchase, and Spartan agreed to sell to the New PIPE Investors, an aggregate of 25,000,000 shares of Class A Common Stock (the “PIPE Shares”), for a purchase price of $10.00 per share, or an aggregate purchase price of $250.0 million, in a private placement (the “PIPE Financing”). Upon closing of the Business Combination, the Company retained $50 million net of transaction expenses as working capital.

Upon closing of the Business Combination, the Company’s immediate sources of liquidity include cash generated from operations, accounts receivable, and existing credit facilities of Sunlight. Based on the foregoing, management believes that the Company will have sufficient working capital and borrowing capacity to meet its needs through one year from this filing.
