Agility Robotics, the company behind the Digit humanoid robot, began trading today on Nasdaq under the ticker AGLT. This makes it the first pure-play humanoid robotics company listed in the United States.
What happened
The listing follows the completion of the business combination with Churchill Capital Corp XI, a SPAC. The transaction and related financings raised approximately $465 million in gross capital before expenses, including a PIPE led by Foxconn and $100 million of equity received prior to closing.
Shares and warrants trade as AGLT and AGLTW, respectively.
Why it matters
Agility has nearly three years of real-world deployments, more than 65,000 hours of operation, and committed multi-year orders of more than $300 million for Digit 5, subject to contractual milestones. Customers include GXO, Schaeffler, and Toyota Motor Manufacturing Canada.
CEO Peggy Johnson highlighted that AI is moving from the digital world into the physical world and that Digit is already doing real work in customer operations.
Context
The company is headquartered in Salem, Oregon, with RoboFab factory designed for up to 10,000 robots per year. Digit 5, unveiled in September 2026, has early customer access expected in the first half of 2027.
