The reason 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, Form 11-K, Form N-CEN or Form 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 or transition report on Form 10-Q or subject distribution report on Form 10-D, or portion thereof, will be filed on or before the fifth calendar day following the prescribed due date; and

 

  (c)   The accountant’s statement or other exhibit required by Rule 12b-25(c) has been attached if applicable.

 

Part III — Narrative

 

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

 

Aeries Technology, Inc.’s (formerly Worldwide Webb Acquisition Corp.) (the “Company”) quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended December 31, 2023 (the “Form 10-Q”) cannot be filed by the prescribed due date without unreasonable effort and expense because the Company requires additional time to complete certain items with respect to the condensed consolidated financial statements to be included in the Form 10-Q, including items related to the business combination with AARK Singapore Pte. Ltd and its subsidiaries (the “Business Combination”). Due to the timing of the completion of the Business Combination during the quarter ended December 31, 2023 and the associated complexity of accounting for the Business Combination and agreements entered into in connection with the Business Combination, the Company requires additional time to prepare the Form 10-Q. In addition, as disclosed previously in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on December 13, 2023, the Company had to restate certain consolidated financial statements of Aark Singapore Pte. Ltd. and subsidiaries, and the work on the restatement diverted time and attention from Company management and other accounting and finance personnel to prepare the Form 10-Q. Based on work completed to date by the Company, it expects to file the Form 10-Q on or before the fifth calendar day following the prescribed due date.

 

In accordance with Rule 12b-25 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the Company anticipates that it will file the Form 10-Q as soon as practicable and no later than the fifth calendar day following the prescribed due date.
