Third Quarter 2026 Financial Highlights
- Revenue: Revenue was $4.5 million, up 21% from the third quarter of 2025. Professional services revenue increased by $1.5 million, and quantum computing as a service (“QCaaS”) revenue increased by $0.8 million, partially offset by a decrease in system sales revenue of $1.5 million.
- Bookings: Bookings were $1.9 million, a year over year decrease of approximately $0.4 million, or 19%. Bookings in any single quarter can vary significantly based on the timing of larger transactions. Bookings for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 were $37.4 million, an increase of $32.1 million, or 611%, from the nine months ended September 30, 2025.
- Remaining Performance Obligations (RPO): As of September 30, 2026, RPO totaled $38.3 million, an increase of 1,221%, from the $2.9 million as of September 30, 2025. Approximately 59% of the September 30, 2026 RPO balance is expected to be recognized as revenue within the following 12 months, and approximately 71% is expected to be recognized as revenue within the following 24 months.
- Customers: Recognized revenue from more than 100 customers, 48% of which were commercial enterprises.
- GAAP Gross Profit and Gross Margin: GAAP gross profit was $2.4 million, a year over year decrease of $0.3 million, or 11%. GAAP gross margin was 52.9%, a year over year decrease of 18.5%. The decrease in gross profit and gross margin was due primarily to a revenue mix with a higher proportion of professional services revenue that carries a lower margin, as well as an increase in non-cash stock-based compensation of $0.2 million.
- Non-GAAP Gross Profit and Gross Margin: Non-GAAP Gross Profit was $2.9 million, essentially flat year over year. Non-GAAP Gross Margin was 63.6%, a year over year decrease of 14.1%, with the decrease due primarily to a revenue mix with a higher proportion of professional services revenue that carries a lower margin.
- GAAP Operating Expenses: GAAP operating expenses were $55.9 million, a year over year increase of $25.5 million, or 84%. The increase was driven primarily by increases of $12.3 million in personnel costs, $4.1 million in non-cash stock-based compensation, $4.6 million in non-cash depreciation and amortization, $1.1 million in third party professional services, and $1.1 million in marketing expenses.
- Non-GAAP Adjusted Operating Expenses: Non-GAAP Adjusted Operating Expenses were $40.5 million, a year over year increase of $17.0 million, or 72%.
- Net Loss: Net loss was $48.2 million, or $0.13 per share, a year over year decrease of $91.8 million, or $0.28 per share. The decrease was primarily due to a $121.9 million decrease in the amount of non-cash, non-operating charges related to the remeasurement of the Company's warrant liability. All of the Company's remaining publicly traded warrants were redeemed in November 2025.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement the financial information presented in accordance with GAAP, we use non-GAAP measures of certain components of financial performance. Each of Non-GAAP Gross Profit, Non-GAAP Gross Margin, Non-GAAP Adjusted Operating Expenses, and Adjusted EBITDA Loss is a financial measure that is not required by or presented in accordance with GAAP. Management believes that each measure provides investors an additional meaningful method to evaluate certain aspects of such results period over period. The Company defines each of its non-GAAP financial measures as follows:
- Non-GAAP Gross Profit is defined as GAAP gross profit without the effect of depreciation and amortization expense and non-cash stock-based compensation expense. We use Non-GAAP Gross Profit to measure, understand and evaluate our core operating performance and trends and to develop short-term and long-term operating plans.
- Non-GAAP Gross Margin is defined as GAAP gross margin adjusted to exclude depreciation and amortization expense and non-cash stock-based compensation expense. We use Non-GAAP Gross Margin to measure, understand and evaluate our core business performance.
- Non-GAAP Adjusted Operating Expenses is defined as operating expenses before depreciation and amortization expense, non-operating or non-recurring expenses and non-cash stock-based compensation expense. We use Non-GAAP Adjusted Operating Expenses to measure our operating expenses, excluding items we do not believe directly reflect our core operations.
- Adjusted EBITDA Loss is defined as net loss before interest income, tax provision, interest expense, depreciation and amortization expense, stock-based compensation, remeasurements of liability-classified warrants, gain on marketable equity securities and other non-operating or non-recurring income and expenses. We use Adjusted EBITDA Loss to measure the operating performance of our business, excluding specifically identified items that we do not believe directly reflect our core operations and may not be indicative of our recurring operations.
The presentation of non-GAAP financial measures is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP, and our presentation of non-GAAP measures may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies. For a reconciliation of each of Non-GAAP Gross Profit, Non-GAAP Gross Margin, Non-GAAP Adjusted Operating Expenses and Adjusted EBITDA Loss to its most directly comparable GAAP measure, please refer to the reconciliations below.
