Exascale Labs完成与BCAR的SPAC合并并将以XLAB在纳斯达克开始交易

Exascale to begin trading tomorrow, August 28, 2026, on Nasdaq under the symbol “XLAB”
Next-generation AI infrastructure provider with scalable platform and approximately $300 million qualified customer pipeline to accelerate commercial deployment
SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 27, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Exascale Labs Inc., a provider of next-generation AI compute infrastructure, today announced the closing of its previously announced business combination with D. Boral ARC Acquisition I Corp. (Nasdaq: BCAR), a special purpose acquisition company (“BCAR”), following shareholder approval at the Extraordinary General Meeting of Shareholders of BCAR held on Wednesday, July 29, 2026.
The combined company has changed its name to Exascale Labs Holdings Inc. and its Class A common stock and warrants will begin trading on Nasdaq under the new symbols “XLAB” and “XLABW,” respectively, on August 28, 2026. Each existing BCAR unit will separate into its components consisting of one share of Class A common stock under the new symbol “XLAB” and one-half of one warrant under the new symbol “XLABW” and, as a result, the BCAR units will no longer trade as a separate security.
Exascale provides dedicated, scalable GPU compute and AI-ready data center solutions to a diversified customer base spanning enterprise AI developers, academic institutions, and AI-native platforms. AI infrastructure demand is increasingly constrained by the availability of deployable compute, power, cooling, and data center capacity. Exascale’s asset-light platform is designed to address these constraints by providing access to high-performance GPU capacity, GPU cluster management, and related infrastructure solutions for large-scale AI workloads, including training, fine-tuning, and inference.
“Completing this business combination and listing on Nasdaq opens a new chapter for Exascale,” said Hoansoo Lee, Chief Executive Officer of Exascale. “We are entering the public markets at a time when demand for AI compute is being shaped not only by GPU availability, but also by the ability to deploy reliable infrastructure at scale. As a public company, we remain focused on executing against our qualified customer pipeline, expanding our platform, and delivering high-performance AI compute infrastructure for enterprise, research, and AI-native customers.”
“Exascale combines a capital-efficient operating model with exposure to one of the most important infrastructure markets in technology,” said John Darwin, Chief Financial Officer of BCAR. “Exascale’s qualified customer pipeline, technical platform, and experienced management team give it a strong foundation as it enters the public markets. Thank you to Hoansoo and the Exascale team, our legal advisors, banking partners, and other strategic partners for their hard work throughout this process. We are proud to complete this transaction and to support Exascale as it begins its next chapter as a Nasdaq-listed company.”
