Exhibit 99.1
Generational Asia I Acquisition Limited Announces Transfer of Listing To Nasdaq
New York and Singapore – March 18, 2024 – Generational Asia I Acquisition Limited (NYSE: GAQ) (the “Company” or “Generation Asia”), a publicly-traded special purpose acquisition company, previously announced that it intends to remove its Class A ordinary shares, units and warrants from the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) and list its shares on The Nasdaq Global Market (“Nasdaq”) on or around March 22, 2024. The Company today announced a revised timeline for this transfer and currently expects its shares to cease trading on the NYSE on or around April 5, 2024. The decision to list on Nasdaq was made in consideration of Generation Asia’s pursuit of an initial business combination (the “Business Combination”) and will enable the post-combination company to be listed alongside the other innovative technology companies that are also listed on Nasdaq.
On or about April 8, 2024, the Company expects Generational Asia’s Class A ordinary shares to commence trading on Nasdaq under the symbol “GAQ”, and for the warrants and the units to commence trading in the over-the-counter market under the symbols “GAQQW” and “GAQQU”, respectively.
