Agility Robotics begins trading on Nasdaq as AGLT after closing its Churchill XI merger, and calls itself the first US-listed pure-play humanoid maker

The Digit maker says the merger and related financing raised about $465m before expenses, and claims more than $300m of committed orders for Digit 5.

Agility Robotics began trading on Nasdaq on 5 November under the symbol AGLT, with its warrants as AGLTW. The day before, it announced that its merger with the blank-cheque company Churchill Capital Corp XI was complete. On 3 November the Switchboard reported the shareholder vote; the deal has now closed and the shares trade.

In its 5 November release, Agility calls itself the first US publicly listed pure-play humanoid robotics company. It says the merger and related financings brought in about $465m of gross capital before transaction expenses, including a share placement led by Foxconn.

Agility says the money will go to filling orders, wider deployments and scaling production of its Digit robot. It claims more than $300m of committed multi-year orders for Digit 5, subject to contract milestones, and a pipeline of more than 30 prospective customers. Digit already works for customers including GXO, Schaeffler and Toyota Motor Manufacturing Canada.

The first-day share price was not visible from here at run time.
