Maquia Capital Acquisition (MAQCU) faces delisting from Nasdaq due to non-compliance with listing rules. The company failed to complete a business combination within the required 36-month period following its IPO. Despite initially receiving an extension and entering a Business Combination Agreement with Velocium, Inc., Nasdaq's Panel decided to delist MAQCU's securities. Trading suspension began on July 31, 2024. The company has requested reconsideration and plans to appeal to the Nasdaq Listing and Hearing Review Council. Meanwhile, MAQCU has applied to list on the OTCQX with the same ticker symbols, aiming to maintain trading accessibility for its securities.
Velocium, Inc., a high-performance compute company optimized for AI, is set to go public on Nasdaq through a merger with Maquia Capital Acquisition Corp (NASDAQ: MAQCU).

Velocium's technology aims to address the growing demand for AI, HPC, and big data processing while significantly reducing energy consumption. The company's universal processor is reportedly 3x faster and 10x more energy-efficient than current market offerings. Upon closing, the company will trade on Nasdaq under the symbol 'VAI', led by CEO Daniel Kochis in Miami, Florida.
