Opinion on the Financial Statement
We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Bellevue Life Sciences Acquisition Corp. (the "Company") as of February 14, 2023, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statement"). In our
opinion, the financial statement presents fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of February 14, 2023, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The accompanying financial statement has been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statement, if the Company is unable to raise
additional funds to alleviate liquidity needs and complete a business combination by November 14, 2023, then the Company will cease all operations except for the purpose of liquidating. The liquidity condition and date for mandatory liquidation and
subsequent dissolution raises substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1. The financial statement does not include any adjustments that
might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
This financial statement is the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's financial statement based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm
registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) ("PCAOB") and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statement is free of material
misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audit, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal
control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statement, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures
included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statement. Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the
overall presentation of the financial statement. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENT
AS OF FEBRUARY 14, 2023
NOTE 1-DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION, BUSINESS OPERATIONS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Bellevue Life Sciences Acquisition Corp. (the "Company") was incorporated in Delaware on February 25, 2020.
The Company was incorporated for the purpose of entering into a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities (the "Business
Combination"). The Company is an emerging growth company and, as such, the Company is subject to all of the risks associated with emerging growth companies.
As of February 14, 2023, the Company had not commenced any operations. All activity since inception relates to the Company's
formation and the initial public offering ("Initial Public Offering") which is described below. The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of its initial Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company will
generate non-operating income in the form of interest income from the proceeds derived from the Initial Public Offering. The Company has selected December 31 as its fiscal year end.
The registration statement for the Company's Initial Public Offering (the "Registration Statement") was declared effective on
February 9, 2023. On February 14, 2023, the Company consummated the Initial Public Offering of 6,000,000 units, ("Units" and, with respect to the common stock included in the Units being offered, the "Public Shares"), generating gross proceeds of
$60,000,000, which is described in Note 3.
Simultaneously with the consummation of the Initial Public Offering and the sale of the Units, the Company consummated the
private placement (the "Private Placement") of 430,000 Units (the " Private Placement Units"), to the Bellevue Global Life Sciences Investors LLC (the "Sponsor") at a price of $10.00 per Placement Unit, for an aggregate purchase price of
$4,300,000. Each Unit and Private Placement Unit consists of one share of common stock, par value $0.0001 (the "Common Stock"), a warrant to purchase one share of Common Stock (the "Public Warrants" and "Private Placement Warrants" and collectively
the "Warrants") and one right which entitles the holder thereof to receive one-tenth (1/10) of a share of common stock (the "Public Rights" and Private Placement Rights" and collectively the "Rights"), as described in Notes 3 and 4.
The Company's management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the Initial
Public Offering and the sale of Private Placement Units, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be applied generally toward consummating a Business Combination. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to complete
a Business Combination successfully. The Company must complete one or more initial Business Combinations having an aggregate fair market value of at least 80% of the assets held in the Trust Account (as defined below) (excluding the amount of
deferred underwriting fees and taxes payable on income earned on the Trust Account) at the time of the agreement to enter into the initial Business Combination. However, the Company will only complete a Business Combination if the post-
transaction company owns or acquires 50% or more of the outstanding voting securities of the target or otherwise acquires a controlling interest in the target sufficient for it not to be required to register as an investment company under the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "Investment Company Act").
Upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering and the Private Placement, approximately $61.6 million ($10.175 per Unit) of net
proceeds, including the net proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and certain of the proceeds of the Private Placement, was placed in a trust account ("Trust Account") located in the United States with Continental Stock Transfer & Trust
Company acting as trustee, and invested only in United States "government securities" within the meaning of Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act 1940, as amended (the "Investment Company Act") 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 which invest only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations, as determined by the Company, until the earlier of: (i) the completion of a
Business Combination and (ii) the distribution of the Trust Account as described below.
The Company will provide its holders of the outstanding shares of its Common Stock ("Public Shares") sold in the Initial Public
Offering (the "Public Stockholders") with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares upon the completion of a Business Combination either (i) in connection with a stockholder meeting called to approve the Business Combination
or (ii) by means of a tender offer. The decision as to whether the Company will seek stockholder approval of a Business Combination or conduct a tender offer will be made by the Company, solely in its discretion. The Public Stockholders will be
entitled to redeem their Public Shares (as described in Note 1) for a pro rata portion of the amount then in the Trust Account (initially anticipated to be $10.175 per Public Share plus any pro rata interest then in the Trust Account, net of taxes
payable). The per-share amount to be distributed to Public Stockholders who redeem their Public Shares will not be reduced by the deferred underwriting commissions the Company will pay to the underwriters (as discussed in Note 5). These Public
Shares were recorded at a redemption value and classified as temporary equity upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board's ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 480
"Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity" ("ASC 480"). In such case, the Company will proceed with a Business Combination if the Company has net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001 upon such consummation of a Business Combination and a majority
of the shares voted are voted in favor of the Business Combination. If a stockholder vote is not required by law and the Company does not decide to hold a stockholder vote for business or other legal reasons, the Company will, pursuant to its
Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the "Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation"), conduct the redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and file tender offer
documents with the SEC prior to completing a Business Combination. If, however, stockholder approval of the transaction is required by law, or the Company decides to obtain stockholder approval for business or other legal reasons, the Company will
offer to redeem shares in conjunction with a proxy solicitation pursuant to the proxy rules and not pursuant to the tender offer rules. Additionally, each Public Stockholder may elect to redeem their Public Shares irrespective of whether they vote
for or against the proposed transaction. If the Company seeks stockholder approval in connection with a Business Combination, the Initial Stockholders (as defined below) have agreed to vote its Founder Shares (as defined below in Note 4) and any
Public Shares purchased during or after the Initial Public Offering in favor of a Business Combination.
Subsequent to the consummation of the Initial Public Offering, the Company will adopt an insider trading policy which will
require insiders to: (i) refrain from purchasing shares during certain blackout periods and when they are in possession of any material non-public information and (ii) to clear all trades with the Company's legal counsel prior to execution. In
addition, the Company's Sponsor and any other holders of the Company's common stock prior to the Initial Public Offering (or their permitted transferees (the "Initial Stockholders") have agreed to waive their redemption rights with respect to their
Founder Shares, Placement Shares and Public Shares in connection with the completion of a Business Combination.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company's Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation provides that a Public
Stockholder, together with any affiliate of such stockholder or any other person with whom such stockholder is acting in concert or as a "group" (as defined under Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act")),
will be restricted from redeeming its shares with respect to more than an aggregate of 15% of more of the shares of Common Stock (as defined in Note 1) sold in the Initial Public Offering.
The Company's Initial Stockholders and Chardan Capital Markets, LLC ("Chardan"), the representative of the underwriters, have
agreed not to propose or vote in favor of an amendment to the Company's amended and restated certificate of incorporation (as to be in effect prior to the closing of the offering, the "Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation") (A) that
would modify the substance or timing of the Company's obligation to allow redemption in connection with the Business Combination or to redeem 100% of its Public Shares if the Company does not complete a Business Combination within 9 months or such
other time period as our stockholders may approve from the closing of the Initial Public Offering (the "Combination Period") or (B) with respect to any other provision relating to stockholders rights or pre-initial Business Combination activity,
unless the Company provides the Public Stockholders with the opportunity to redeem their Public shares in conjunction with such an amendment.
Pursuant to the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, if the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination
within the Combination Period, the Company will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up; (ii) as promptly and as reasonably possible, but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem 100% of the outstanding Public
Shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, 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 to pay its taxes (less up
to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of the then outstanding Public Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish Public Stockholders rights as stockholders (including the right to receive further
liquidation distributions, if any); and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the remaining stockholders and the board of directors, dissolve and liquidate, subject in the case of clauses
(ii) and (iii), to the Company's obligations under Delaware law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law.
The Sponsor, officers and directors have agreed to waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with
respect to the Founder Shares (defined in Note 4) and Placement Shares held by them if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period. However, if the Initial Stockholders acquire Public Shares in or after the
Initial Public Offering, they will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to such Public Shares if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period. The underwriters have
agreed to waive their rights to the deferred underwriting commission (see Note 5) held in the Trust Account in the event the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period and, in such event, such amounts will be
included with the other funds held in the Trust Account that will be available to fund the redemption of the Public Shares. In the event of such distribution, it is possible that the per share value of the residual assets remaining available for
distribution (including Trust Account assets) may be less than approximately $10.175 per share initially held in the Trust Account. In order to protect the amounts held in the Trust Account, the Sponsor has agreed to be liable to the Company if and
to the extent any claims by a vendor for services rendered or products sold to the Company, or a prospective partner business with which the Company has discussed entering into a transaction agreement, reduce the amount of funds in the Trust
Account. This liability will not apply with respect to any claims by a third party who executed a waiver of any right, title, Company's indemnity of the underwriters of the Initial Public Offering against certain liabilities, including liabilities
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"). Moreover, in the event that an executed waiver is deemed to be unenforceable against a third party, the Sponsor will not be responsible to the extent of any liability for such
third party claims. The Company will seek to reduce the possibility that the Sponsor will have to indemnify the Trust Account due to claims of creditors by endeavoring to have all vendors, service providers (except for the Company's independent
registered public accounting firm), prospective partner businesses or other entities with which the Company does business, execute agreements with the Company waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to monies held in the Trust
