Introductory Note

 

As previously disclosed, on February 22, 2026, Real Asset Acquisition Corp., a Cayman Islands exempted company (“RAAQ”), entered into a business combination agreement, dated as of February 22, 2026 (the “Business Combination Agreement”), by and among RAAQ, IQM Quantum Computers Oyj (fka IQM Finland Oy), a limited liability company (Fi. osakeyhtiö) incorporated under the laws of Finland (“IQM”), IQM US LLC, a limited liability company incorporated under the laws of Delaware and an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of IQM (“Merger Sub”) and ECLIPSE QC S.à.r.l., a private limited liability company (société à responsabilité limitée) incorporated under the laws of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg and a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of IQM. On the Closing Date (as defined below), pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, (i) IQM effectuated certain internal capital restructuring steps (the “IQM Capital Restructuring”) prior to the effective time of the Merger (as defined below) (the “Merger Effective Time”), and (ii) promptly thereafter, RAAQ merged with and into Merger Sub (the “Merger”), with Merger Sub surviving the Merger as an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of IQM. As a result of the Merger, the reporting entity of this Current Report on Form 8-K is IQM US LLC. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein have the same meanings ascribed to them in the Business Combination Agreement.

 

Concurrently with the execution and delivery of the Business Combination Agreement, RAAQ, RAAQ Sponsor LLC (the “Sponsor”), IQM and the SPAC Insiders entered into a sponsor support agreement (the “Sponsor Support Agreement”), pursuant to which the Sponsor agreed to forfeit (i) 1,375,000 Founder Shares for no consideration and (ii) up to 3,725,000 Private Placement Warrants held by the Sponsor (such forfeitures, the “Sponsor Forfeitures”). The SPAC Insiders also agreed to transfer restrictions with respect to 70% of the IQM ADSs (as defined below) received on the Closing Date, ending on the earlier of (a) July 1, 2027, (b) the date on which the last sale price of IQM ADSs equals or exceeds $12.00 per IQM ADS for any 20 trading days within a 30 trading day period commencing at least 150 days after July 1, 2026, or (c) the completion of a liquidation, merger, share exchange, reorganization or similar transaction.

 

On June 25, 2026, RAAQ held an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders and approved the proposal to approve the Transactions pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement (the “Business Combination”).

 

On July 1, 2026 (the “Closing Date”), pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement: (i) immediately prior to the Merger Effective Time, all issued and outstanding Class B ordinary shares of RAAQ, par value $0.0001 per share (“RAAQ Class B Ordinary Shares”), other than those subject to the Sponsor Forfeiture (as described below) were automatically converted, on a one-for-one basis, into Class A ordinary shares of RAAQ, par value $0.0001 per share (“RAAQ Class A Ordinary Shares”), in accordance with the terms of RAAQ’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, as amended from time to time ; (ii) each issued and outstanding unit of RAAQ immediately prior to the Merger Effective Time was automatically separated (the “Unit Separation”) into its components of one RAAQ Class A Ordinary Share and one-half of one warrant to purchase one RAAQ Class A Ordinary Share at a price of $11.50 per share (the “RAAQ Public Warrants”); (iii) immediately following the Unit Separation and the IQM Capital Restructuring, each RAAQ Class A Ordinary Share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Merger Effective Time (including those issued in connection with the RAAQ Class B Conversion (as defined below)) was automatically canceled in exchange for the right to receive one American depositary share (“ADS”) of IQM (each, an “IQM ADS”), with each IQM ADS representing one ordinary share of IQM, with no nominal value (each, an “IQM Share”) (such IQM ADSs, the “Merger Consideration”); and (iv) each warrant of RAAQ (including the RAAQ Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants issued by RAAQ, collectively referred to herein as the “RAAQ Warrants”) outstanding immediately prior to the Merger Effective Time was assumed by IQM and became a warrant to purchase one IQM ADS representing one IQM Share (each, an “IQM Warrant”) at an exercise price of $11.50 per share.

 

On the Closing Date, IQM sold and issued an aggregate of approximately 14.5 million ordinary shares, including in the form of IQM ADSs (collectively, the “PIPE Shares”), for a purchase price of $10.00 per share or ADS in a private placement, for an aggregate amount of approximately $145 million (the “PIPE Investment Amount”) pursuant to certain subscription agreements (each, a “PIPE Subscription Agreement” and collectively, the “PIPE Subscription Agreements”) with institutional and other accredited investors, including certain SPAC Insiders (the “PIPE Investors”). As of the Closing Date and following the Sponsor Forfeitures, the Sponsor was issued 4,240,000 IQM ADSs in exchange for its Founder Shares and 2,180,981 IQM Warrants in exchange for its Private Placement Warrants. The Sponsor did not receive any cash compensation during the ordinary course of managing RAAQ or in connection with the Business Combination.

As of the Closing Date, IQM had (i) 262,462,360 fully paid IQM Shares, of which 73,770,253 shares are held by IQM, and (ii) 13,589,086 warrants issued by IQM, including the IQM Warrants, issued and outstanding. IQM also has 19,056,614 IQM Shares reserved for issuance pursuant to its employee stock option plans. Immediately after the consummation of the Business Combination, (i) the pre-closing shareholders of IQM owned 84.7% of the issued and outstanding IQM Shares; (ii) the pre-closing shareholders of RAAQ Class A Ordinary Shares owned 5.3% of the issued and outstanding IQM Shares; (iii) the pre-closing shareholders of RAAQ Class B Ordinary Shares owned 2.3% of the issued and outstanding IQM Shares; and (iv) the PIPE Investors owned 7.7% of the issued and outstanding IQM Shares.

 

All the rights and obligations of RAAQ Class A Ordinary Shares, RAAQ Class B Ordinary Shares, RAAQ Warrants and RAAQ Units were terminated in connection with the consummation of the Merger, unless as otherwise assigned and assumed by IQM in accordance with the Business Combination Agreement. No fractional shares or warrants were issued in the foregoing process, and all such shares or warrants were rounded down to the nearest whole number of shares or warrants.

  

The IQM ADSs began trading on the Nasdaq Global Select Market under the symbol “IQMX” and the IQM Warrants began trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “IQMX WS” on July 2, 2026. The IQM Shares began trading on the regulated market of Nasdaq Helsinki Ltd on July 3, 2026.

The information set forth in the Introductory Note of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated herein by reference.

 

Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing; Material Modification to Rights of Security Holders.

 

On July 1, 2026, in connection with the consummation of the Business Combination, RAAQ notified Nasdaq that the Business Combination had become effective and requested that Nasdaq file a Notification of Removal from Listing and/or Registration under Section 12(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) on Form 25 to notify the SEC that the RAAQ Class A Ordinary Shares, RAAQ Public Warrants and RAAQ Units (collectively, the “RAAQ Securities”) were to be delisted and deregistered under Section 12(b) of the Exchange Act. As a result of the Business Combination having become effective, Nasdaq determined to permanently suspend trading of the RAAQ Securities prior to the opening of trading on July 2, 2026. The deregistration will become effective 10 days from the filing of the Form 25, which occurred on July 1, 2026. RAAQ intends to file a Form 15 with the SEC in order to complete the deregistration of the RAAQ Securities under the Exchange Act.

 

Item 3.03 Material Modifications to Rights of Security Holders.

 

To the extent required by Item 3.03 of Form 8-K, the disclosure set forth in the Introductory Note, Item 2.01 and Item 3.01 above and Item 5.01 below of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated by reference in this Item 3.03.

To the extent required by Item 5.01 of Form 8-K, the disclosure set forth in the Introductory Note and Item 2.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated by reference in this Item 5.01.

 

As a result of the consummation of the Business Combination, a change in control of RAAQ occurred. At the Merger Effective Time, all the property, rights, privileges, agreements, powers and franchises, debts, liabilities, duties and obligations of Merger Sub and RAAQ became the property, rights, privileges, agreements, powers and franchises, debts, liabilities, duties and obligations of the Merger Sub, which included the assumption by the Merger Sub of any and all agreements, covenants, duties and obligations of Merger Sub and RAAQ set forth in the Business Combination Agreement to be performed after the Merger Effective Time.  

 

Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

 

In accordance with the Business Combination Agreement, RAAQ merged with and into Merger Sub and upon the Merger Effective Time, RAAQ ceased to exist and each of RAAQ’s officers and directors forthwith ceased to serve as an officer or director of RAAQ. Effective as of the Merger Effective Time, each of Robert Neal, Mark Smith and Eduardo Munemori ceased to be a director of RAAQ, and Peter Ort resigned as Chief Executive Officer and Co-Chairman and Jeff Tuder resigned as Chief Financial Officer and Co-Chairman. These resignations were not due to any disagreement between RAAQ and the officers and directors on any matter relating to RAAQ’s operation, policies and practice. Mr. Tuder will serve as a director of IQM.
