Item 3.01 | Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing |
In connection with the business combination (the “Business Combination”) of GigCapital4, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“GigCapital4” or the “Company”) with BigBear.ai Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“BigBear.ai”), the Company intends to transfer the listing of the post-combination Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”) and it’s redeemable warrants, each full warrant exercisable for one share of common stock at an exercise price of $11.50 per share (the “Warrants”), from the Nasdaq Capital Market (the “Nasdaq”) to the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”). On November 26, 2021, the Company has taken action to apply for listing of the Common Stock and the Warrants for trading on the NYSE, and notice of this intended transfer has been provided to the Nasdaq. GigCapital4 anticipates that its Common Stock and Warrants will begin trading on the NYSE at the commencement of trading on December 8, 2021 under the ticker symbols “BBAI” and “BBAIW”, respectively. Until the close of trading on December 7, 2021, GigCapital4’s Common Stock and Warrants will continue to trade on the Nasdaq under the ticker symbols “GIG” and “GIGGW”, respectively.
The disclosure set forth in Item 8.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K relating to the issuance of a press release is incorporated by reference into this Item 3.01.

On November 26, 2021, GigCapital4 issued a press release reminding stockholders to vote “FOR” the Business Combination.

A copy of the press release is included as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated by reference herein.

Forward-Looking Statements
This Current Report on Form 8-K contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act, and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. Forward-looking statements may be identified by the use of words such as “estimate,” “plan,” “project,” “forecast,” “intend,” “will,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “seek,” “target” or other similar expressions that predict or indicate future events or trends or that are not statements of historical matters. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding estimates and forecasts of other financial and performance metrics, projections of market opportunity and market share, and the timing of the consummation of the business combination. These statements are based on various assumptions, whether or not identified in this press release, and on the current expectations of management of GigCapital4 and are not predictions of actual performance. These forward-looking statements are provided for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to serve as, and must not be relied on by any investor as, a guarantee, an assurance, a prediction or a definitive statement of fact or probability. Actual events and circumstances are difficult or impossible to predict and will differ from assumptions. Many actual events and circumstances are beyond the control of GigCapital4. These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including changes in domestic and foreign business, market, financial, political, and legal conditions; the inability of the parties to successfully or timely consummate the proposed business combination, including the risk that any required regulatory approvals are not obtained, are delayed or are subject to unanticipated conditions that could adversely affect the combined company or the expected benefits of the proposed business combination or that the approval of stockholders is not obtained; failure to realize the anticipated benefits of the proposed business combination; risks relating to the uncertainty of the projected financial information with respect to BigBear.ai; risks related to the rollout of BigBear.ai’s business and the timing of expected business milestones; the effects of competition on BigBear.ai’s future business; the amount of redemption requests made by GigCapital4’s public stockholders; the ability of GigCapital4 or the combined company to issue equity or equity-linked securities in connection with the proposed business combination or in the future. If any of these risks materialize or GigCapital4’s assumptions prove incorrect, actual results could differ materially from the results implied by these forward-looking statements. Additional factors that could cause actual results to differ are discussed under the heading “Risk Factors” and in other sections of GigCapital4’s filings with the SEC, and in GigCapital4’s current and periodic reports filed or furnished from time to time with the SEC. There may be additional risks that neither GigCapital4 nor BigBear.ai presently know or that they currently believe are immaterial that could also cause actual results to differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements. In addition, forward-looking statements reflect GigCapital4 and BigBear.ai’s expectations, plans or forecasts of future events and views as of the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K, based on information available to GigCapital4 and BigBear.ai as of the date hereof. GigCapital4 and BigBear.ai assume no obligation to update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required under applicable securities laws. While GigCapital4 and BigBear.ai may elect to update these forward-looking statements at some point in the future, GigCapital4 and BigBear.ai specifically disclaim any obligation to do so. These forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing GigCapital4’s and BigBear.ai’s assessments as of any date subsequent to the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K. Accordingly, undue reliance should not be placed upon the forward-looking statements.
