| Item 3.01. | Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing. |
On January 15, 2025 CSLM Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) received a notice (the “Notice”) from the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”), stating that the Company did not comply with Nasdaq Interpretive Material IM-5101-2, and that its securities are now subject to delisting. The Company’s registration statement, filed in connection with the Company’s IPO, became effective January 12, 2022. Pursuant to IM-5101-2, the Company, a special purpose acquisition company, must complete one or more business combinations within 36 months of the effectiveness of its IPO registration statement. Since the Company did not complete its initial business combination by January 12, 2025, the Company did not comply with IM-5101-2, and its securities are now subject to delisting. Unless the Company requests a timely appeal of this determination by Nasdaq, trading of the Company’s securities on Nasdaq will be suspended at the opening of business on January 22, 2025, and a Form 25-NSE will be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), which will remove the Company’s securities from listing on The Nasdaq Stock Market.
The Company will not appeal Nasdaq’s determination to delist the Company securities and accordingly, the Company’s securities will be suspended from trading on Nasdaq at the opening of business on January 22, 2025. However, the Company expects its securities will commence trading on the over-the-counter market on January 22, 2025.
| Item 8.01. | Other Events. |
On January 16, 2025 the Company deposited $30,000 into the Company’s trust account in order to further extend the amount of time it has available to complete a business combination to February 18, 2025. The Company can extend the time available to complete a business combination on a month-to-month basis, by depositing $30,000 for each one-month extension, until July 18, 2025.
