Agility Robotics Debuts on Nasdaq as AGLT, First U.S. Public Pure-Play Humanoid Maker
Agility Robotics began Nasdaq trading November 5, 2026 under AGLT and AGLTW as the first U.S. publicly listed pure-play humanoid robotics company, with about $465 million in gross capital from its SPAC combination and more than $300 million in committed multi-year Digit 5 orders.
- 01THE DEBUT — Agility Robotics began trading on Nasdaq on November 5, 2026 under AGLT and AGLTW, the first U.S. publicly listed pure-play humanoid robotics company with proven, active commercial deployments.
- 02THE CAPITAL — The business combination and related financings raised approximately $465 million in gross capital, including a Foxconn-led private investment, to fund order fulfillment, deployment expansion and Digit production scale-up.
- 03THE WATCHPOINT — Whether Digit 5 hits its dated milestones: early customer access in the first half of 2027, expanded GXO deployments at two more U.S. facilities in early 2027, and general availability by the end of 2027.
WHAT HAPPENEDWhat Happened
Agility Robotics began trading on the Nasdaq on November 5, 2026, under the tickers AGLT for its common stock and AGLTW for its warrants, becoming the first U.S. publicly listed pure-play humanoid robotics company with proven, active commercial deployments. The debut follows the November 4 close of its business combination with Churchill Capital Corp XI, announced the same day in Agility's own GlobeNewswire release.
The combination and related financings raised approximately $465 million in gross capital before transaction expenses, including a private investment in public equity led by Foxconn and $100 million of equity funding received before closing. Agility said it will use the proceeds to fulfill customer orders, expand commercial deployments, scale production of its Digit humanoid and keep developing its integrated robotics and physical AI platform.
The company enters the public markets with nearly three years of real-world deployment experience and more than 65,000 hours of operation. Digit is already working with GXO, Schaeffler and Toyota Motor Manufacturing Canada, and Agility has secured more than $300 million in committed multi-year orders for Digit 5, its next-generation humanoid unveiled in September 2026, subject to contractual milestones, product features and specifications. Early customer access to Digit 5 is expected in the first half of 2027, with general availability targeted for the end of that year.
WHY IT MATTERSA listing that turns a backlog into a public test
The debut converts Agility's order book into a number the market can now grade every quarter. More than $300 million in committed Digit 5 orders is a real pipeline, but the release is explicit that those orders are subject to milestones, product features and specifications, and Digit 5 does not reach general availability until the end of 2027. Agility's reported 2025 results, $1.8 million in revenue against a $138.1 million net loss, show how far that backlog still has to travel to become revenue.
The next milestones are concrete and dated: expanded GXO deployments at two additional U.S. logistics facilities in early 2027, an AGCO pilot beginning in 2027, and early Digit 5 customer access in the first half of 2027. Each one is a checkable delivery date, and the stock will now be priced against them rather than against the idea of humanoid labor.
WHY IT MATTERSFoxconn's money is the manufacturing signal
The $201 million private investment led by Foxconn is the detail that separates this listing from a pure story stock. Foxconn is the world's largest contract manufacturer, and its backing is a bet that humanoid production can scale like consumer electronics. Agility's RoboFab facility in Salem, Oregon, is designed for annual production capacity of up to 10,000 robots, with a 50,000-square-foot Pittsburgh expansion adding software and deployment capacity.
The technology stack behind the pitch is also now public and verifiable: Digit 5 standardizes onboard compute on NVIDIA IGX Thor, integrates NVIDIA Halos safety technology, and uses Nyobolt batteries designed to recharge in nine minutes and deliver more than 20 hours of productive work in a 24-hour day. The listing gives Western investors their first direct exposure to a company focused exclusively on bipedal robots for logistics and industrial labor.
SIGNAL JUDGMENT — ANALYSISThe first pure-play humanoid stock makes delivery the metric
Tokenta Signal's judgment: a Nasdaq listing does not make Digit 5 real, it makes the delivery schedule public. The $300 million order book is the asset and the risk at once: every milestone in it is now a dated promise the market can check, from GXO's two new facilities in early 2027 to general availability at the end of the year. Foxconn's money and RoboFab's 10,000-unit capacity say the manufacturing bet is serious; the 2025 revenue line says the commercial bet is still unproven. Watch the first deployment dates, not the first trading day.
