Movement Alert|IONQ Inc. Rises 5.12% in Pre-Market Trading, Acquisition of SkyWater Technology Nears Closing After Final Regulatory Approval

Market Focus17:11

On July 31, IONQ Inc. rose 5.12% in pre-market trading, trading at $37.63/share, with turnover of $3.93 million.

On the news front, IonQ announced on July 29 after hours that it received the final regulatory approval needed to complete its acquisition of SkyWater Technology. After the transaction closes, SkyWater will operate as a wholly owned subsidiary of IonQ. The two companies expect to formally close the deal on Friday of this week. Previously in May, SkyWater shareholders approved the acquisition at a special meeting, which at the time drove IONQ shares up nearly 15% and lifted the broader quantum computing sector.

With the closing date imminent, market expectations for IonQ's vertical integration of manufacturing capabilities continue to build, extending gains from the prior trading session when the stock rose over 5% on the same catalyst.
