The epoxide group of the substrate undergoes ring-opening under the catalysis of $\mathrm{BF_3·Et_2O}$ (possibly via an oxonium ion mechanism), generating a tertiary carbocation.

According to the question, two carbocation rearrangements are involved. First, the methyl group on the adjacent quaternary carbon undergoes a concerted sigmatropic migration to generate a tertiary carbocation at the bridgehead.

Subsequently, a 1,2-sigmatropic hydride shift occurs. Finally, due to steric hindrance, the phenolic hydroxyl group attacks the carbocation in a concerted manner with proton transfer, ultimately resulting in a cis-fused ring structure.
