Dig: Hugging Face — Nvidia ACQ premature (agreement ≠ closed; H1 2027)

Class A Dig (Pass A9): Removed premature Aug 2026 ACQUISITION round encoding Hugging Face as acquired by Nvidia for $12,900M . Deal is definitive agreement , not closed (expected H1 2027).

Primary: Nvidia Form 8-K (agreement dated 2 Sep 2026) — “entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Hugging Face”; ~ $11.9B purchase price to stockholders + up to ~ $1.0B equity retention; “expected to close in the first half of 2027 , subject to… customary closing conditions, including… required regulatory approvals.” Nvidia blog / PR headline amount $12.93B = cash+retention construct (amount soft Dig on re-add — do not invent $12.9 vs $11.9).

Action: Round 1219992 deleted ; company_status → operational (mega-profile edit limited to this glaring premature ACQ). Re-add ACQ only on close; prefer SEC $11.9 stockholder consideration unless curator accepts $12.93 headline package.
