Item 8.01. Other Events.
On May 4, 2026, Quantum Leap Acquisition Corp (the “Company”) consummated its initial public offering (“IPO”) of 20,000,000 units (the “Units”), with each Unit consisting of one Class A ordinary share of the Company, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class A Ordinary Shares”), and one redeemable warrant (each, a “Warrant”).
The Company previously expected that the Class A Ordinary Shares and Warrants comprising the Units would begin separate trading on or about June 22, 2026. The Company announced that, commencing on or about June 23, 2026, the Class A Ordinary Shares and Warrants comprising the Units will begin trading separately on the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) under the symbols “QLEP” and “QLEP WS,” respectively. The Units will continue to be quoted on the NYSE under the symbol “QLEPU” until the separation, after which the Units will no longer trade. At the time the Class A Ordinary Shares and Warrants begin separate trading, holders of Units will hold the separate securities and will no longer hold Units, without any action needing to be taken by the holders. No fractional warrants will be issued upon separation of the Units, and only whole warrants will trade.
On June 18, 2026, the Company issued a press release announcing the separate trading of the Class A Ordinary Shares and Warrants, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.

Quantum Leap Acquisition Corp Announces Separate Trading of Class A Ordinary Shares and Warrants Commencing June 23, 2026
MENLO PARK, Calif, June 18, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Quantum Leap Acquisition Corp (the "Company") (NYSE: QLEPU) announced today that the separate trading of the Class A ordinary shares and warrants comprising the units sold in the Company's initial public offering, previously expected to commence on Monday, June 22, 2026, is expected to commence on or about Tuesday, June 23, 2026. At that time, holders will hold the separate securities and will no longer hold units, without any action needing to be taken by the holders, and the units will no longer trade. The Class A ordinary shares and warrants are expected to be listed and traded on the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") under the symbols "QLEP" and "QLEP WS," respectively, and the units will cease trading under the symbol "QLEPU."
The Company completed its initial public offering of 20,000,000 units on May 4, 2026, with each unit consisting of one Class A ordinary share and one redeemable warrant. Each whole warrant entitles the holder to purchase one Class A ordinary share at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment. No fractional warrants will be issued upon separation of the units, and only whole warrants will trade.
The separation of the units into their component Class A ordinary shares and warrants will occur automatically, and holders need not take any action to effect the separation. Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company is acting as the Company's transfer agent.
A.G.P./Alliance Global Partners acted as sole book-running manager for the initial public offering.
