2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Preparation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) as determined by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”). Such consolidated financial statements include the accounts of IonQ and majority-owned and wholly-owned subsidiaries. In addition, the Company evaluates its relationships with other entities to identify whether they are variable interest entities and whether the Company is the primary beneficiary. Consolidation is required if both of these criteria are met. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. For consolidated non-wholly-owned subsidiaries, a noncontrolling interest is recognized to reflect the portion of income and equity that is not attributable to the Company. Any change in the Company’s ownership interest in a consolidated subsidiary, where a controlling financial interest is retained, is accounted for as an equity transaction. If the Company ceases to have a controlling financial interest in a consolidated subsidiary, the Company recognizes a gain or loss in net loss upon deconsolidation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP and the rules and regulations of the SEC require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in these consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes.

Significant estimates and assumptions are inherent in the analysis and measurement of items including, but not limited to: standalone selling price for revenue arrangements with multiple performance obligations, total expected costs for revenue arrangements recognized over time under the cost-to-cost percentage of completion model, and estimates of the fair value of intangible assets upon acquisition. Management bases its estimates and assumptions on historical experience, expectations, forecasts, and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Due to the inherent uncertainty involved in making estimates, actual results reported in future periods may differ and be affected by changes in those estimates.

Foreign Currency

The reporting currency of the Company is the U.S. dollar. Financial statements of subsidiaries whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar are translated at exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date for assets and liabilities and at average exchange rates for revenues and expenses for the respective periods. Translation adjustments are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in the consolidated balance sheets.

The Company is exposed to foreign currency risk to the extent that it enters into transactions denominated in currencies other than its subsidiaries’ respective functional currencies. Transactions denominated in currencies other than subsidiaries’ functional currencies are recorded based on exchange rates at the time such transactions arise. Changes in exchange rates with respect to amounts recorded in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets related to these items will result in unrealized foreign currency transaction gains and losses based upon period-end exchange rates. The Company also records realized foreign currency transaction gains and losses upon settlement of the transactions. Foreign currency transaction gains and losses resulting from the conversion of the transaction currency to functional currency are included in other income (expense), net in the consolidated statements of operations.

Fair Value Measurements

The Company evaluates the fair value of certain assets and liabilities using the fair value hierarchy. Fair value is an exit price representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair value is estimated by applying the following hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value into three levels and bases the categorization within the hierarchy upon the lowest level of input that is available and significant to the fair value measurement:

•

Level 1—Observable inputs, which include quoted prices in active markets;

•

Level 2—Observable inputs other than the quoted prices in active markets that are observable either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices in markets that are not active, or other inputs such as broker quotes, benchmark yield curves, credit spreads and market interest rates for similar securities that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities;

•

Level 3—Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are based on management’s assumptions, including fair value measurements determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies or similar techniques.

The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurements requires judgment and may affect the valuation of the assets and liabilities being measured and their placement within the fair value hierarchy.

For assets that are measured using quoted prices in active markets, the total fair value is the published market price per unit multiplied by the number of units held, without consideration of transaction costs. Assets and liabilities that are measured using significant other observable inputs are primarily valued by reference to quoted prices of similar assets or liabilities in active markets, adjusted for any terms specific to that asset or liability. Assets that are measured using unobservable inputs, including investments in privately-held companies, use the market or income approach and may involve pricing models whose inputs require significant judgment or estimation. The inputs in these valuations may include, but are not limited to, capitalization and discount rates and earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (“EBITDA”) multiples. Liabilities that are measured using unobservable inputs, including warrant liabilities, use the Black-Scholes-Merton (“Black-Scholes”) option-pricing model and may involve inputs which require significant judgment or estimation, including expected volatility.

Assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis include property and equipment, intangible assets, and goodwill. The Company recognizes these items at fair value upon initial recognition when acquired through a business combination or an asset acquisition or when they are considered to be impaired. The fair value of these assets and liabilities are determined with valuation techniques using the best information available and may include quoted market prices, market comparables and discounted cash flow models.

Due to their short-term nature, the carrying amounts reported in the Company’s consolidated financial statements approximate the fair value for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses.

Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash

Cash and cash equivalents include cash and checking deposits, money market funds, and U.S. government and agency securities. The Company considers all short-term highly liquid investments with an original maturity at the date of purchase of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Restricted cash for collateralizing letters of credit and certain other obligations is included in prepaid expenses and other noncurrent assets in the consolidated balance sheets. The Company issues financial guarantees, including letters of credit, in the ordinary course of business, including for lease arrangements and regulatory requirements. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, letters of credit totaling $5.2 and $2.1 million were outstanding, respectively.

The following table provides a reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash included in the consolidated balance sheets to the amounts included in the consolidated statements of cash flows (in thousands):

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Credit Losses

Accounts receivable represent amounts billed and currently due from customers at the gross invoiced amount as well as unbilled amounts related to unconditional rights for consideration to be received for services performed but not yet invoiced. A receivable is recorded when the Company has an unconditional right to receive payment. Accounts receivable are classified as current based on the Company's contract operating cycle and include amounts that may be billed and collected beyond one year due to the long-cycle nature of the Company's contracts. Accounts receivable consists of the following (in thousands):

On a periodic basis, management evaluates its accounts receivable and determines whether to provide an allowance for credit losses. This assessment is based on management’s evaluation of relevant information about past events, including historical experience, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of the receivable.

Allowance for credit losses wasnot material as of either December 31, 2025 or 2024.

Inventories, Net

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, with cost computed using the weighted-average cost basis, and are recorded in prepaid expenses and other current assets in the consolidated balance sheet. Inventories are evaluated regularly for excess quantities and obsolescence. This evaluation includes analysis of the Company’s current and future strategic plans, risk of technological obsolescence, and general market conditions. During the year ended December 31, 2025, excess and obsolescence charges werenot material.

Materials and Supplies, Net

Materials and supplies, including spare parts, are carried at weighted-average cost and recorded in prepaid expenses and other current assets in the consolidated balance sheets. Materials and supplies used in the production of quantum computing systems and satellites are capitalized to property and equipment when installed. Materials and supplies used to support customer contracts, for maintenance, or for research and development efforts are expensed when consumed. The Company capitalized $17.4 million, $7.2 million, and $3.6 million of materials and supplies to property and equipment for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Materials and supplies are evaluated regularly for excess quantities and obsolescence. This evaluation includes analysis of the Company's current and future strategic plans, risk of technological obsolescence, and general market conditions. Excess and obsolescence charges were $4.0 million, $1.3 million, and less than $0.1 million during the years ended years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

The following table summarizes the activity in the Company’s excess and obsolescence reserve against materials and supplies (in thousands):

Investments

Management determines the appropriate classification of investments at the time of purchase based upon management’s intent with regard to such investments. The Company primarily invests in debt securities and classifies its investments as available-for-sale at the time of purchase if they are available to support either current or future operations. This classification is re-evaluated at each balance sheet date. Investments not considered cash equivalents, with remaining contractual maturities of one year or less from the balance sheet date are classified as short-term investments, and those with remaining contractual maturities greater than one year from the balance sheet date are classified as long-term investments. All investments are recorded at their estimated fair value, and any unrealized gains and losses are recorded in the consolidated balance sheets in accumulated other comprehensive loss. Realized gains and losses on sales and maturities of investments are determined based on the specific identification method and are recognized in the consolidated statements of operations in other income (expense), net. Accrued interest receivable on available-for-sale investments is recorded in the consolidated balance sheets in prepaid expenses and other current assets.

The Company also invests in privately-held companies, consisting of equity securities, convertible debt securities, and simple agreements for future equity (“SAFE”) investments and classifies these investments in accordance with the terms of the underlying securities. Investments in securities of privately-held companies are included in other noncurrent assets on the consolidated balance sheet. For convertible debt securities and SAFE investments, the Company elects the fair value option, when applicable, and records changes in fair value in other income (expense), net in the consolidated statements of operations. When the fair value option is not elected or permitted, investments are classified as available-for-sale investments, with changes in fair value recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). Equity securities without a readily determinable fair value are recorded using the measurement alternative. Such investments are carried at cost, less any impairments, and are adjusted for subsequent observable price changes in orderly transactions for identical or similar investments of the same issuer. Changes in the basis of the securities are recognized in other income (expense), net in the consolidated statements of operations.

The Company performs periodic evaluations to determine whether any declines in the fair value of investments below amortized cost are credit losses or impairments. The evaluation consists of qualitative and quantitative factors regarding the severity of the unrealized loss, as well as the Company’s ability and intent to hold the investments until a forecasted recovery occurs. Declines in fair value are considered to be credit losses if they are related to deterioration in credit risk or are considered impairments if it is likely that the underlying securities will be sold prior to a full recovery of their cost basis. Credit losses and impairments are determined based on the specific identification method and are reported in other income (expense), net in the consolidated statements of operations. Credit losses and impairments werenot material for theyears ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023.

Property and Equipment, Net

Property and equipment, net is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Historical cost of fixed assets is the cost as of the date acquired. Hardware and labor costs associated with the building of quantum computing systems, satellites, and supporting equipment are capitalized in the period the costs are incurred when it is probable that such costs will provide future economic benefit. The costs of quantum computing systems, satellites, and supporting equipment that are used in research and development activities and have alternative future uses are capitalized. Maintenance costs associated with our property and equipment are expensed as incurred.

Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Useful lives are as follows:

The Company evaluates the useful life of its assets periodically and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the useful life may have changed. In assessing useful lives, the Company considers, among other factors, the use of the asset, changes in technology, and the competitive environment.

Leases

The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and current operating lease liabilities and operating lease liabilities, net of current portion on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company has no financing lease arrangements. The Company recognizes lease expense for its operating leases on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.

The Company records a ROU asset and lease liability in connection with its operating leases. The Company’s lease portfolio is comprised primarily of real estate leases, which are accounted for as operating leases. The Company elected the practical expedient to not separate lease and non-lease components for all leases.

ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments, including the impact of any lease incentives, as applicable, over the lease term. An amendment to a lease is assessed to determine if it represents a lease modification or a separate contract. Lease modifications are reassessed as of the effective date of the modification using an incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date. For modified leases the Company also reassesses the lease classification as of the effective date of the modification.

The interest rate used to determine the present value of the future lease payments is the Company’s incremental borrowing rate, because the interest rate implicit in the Company’s leases is not readily determinable. The incremental borrowing rate is estimated to approximate the interest rate on a collateralized basis with similar terms and payments, and in economic environments where the leased asset is located.

The Company’s lease terms include periods under options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. The Company considers contractual-based factors such as the nature and terms of the renewal or termination, asset-based factors such as physical location of the asset and entity-based factors such as the importance of the leased asset to the Company’s operations to determine the lease term. The Company generally uses the base non-cancelable lease term when determining the ROU assets and lease liabilities.

Software Development Costs

The Company incurs software development costs for internal-use software, which the Company primarily uses to provide services to its customers, as well as for external-use software that will be part of a product to be sold, leased, or marketed.

Internal-Use Software

The costs to purchase and develop internal-use software are capitalized from the time that the preliminary project stage is completed, and it is considered probable that the software will be used to perform the function intended, until the time the software is placed in service for its intended use. Any costs incurred during subsequent efforts to upgrade and enhance the functionality of the software are also capitalized. Once this software is ready for its intended use, these costs are amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the software, which is typically assessed to bethree years. Capitalized internal-use software is recorded within intangible assets, net, in the consolidated balance sheets. During theyears ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, the Company capitalized $7.0 million, $6.8 million and $8.0 million in internal-use software costs, respectively. The Company amortized $6.6 million, $5.3 million and $2.9 million of capitalized internal-use software costs during the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

External-Use Software

Costs incurred in researching and developing external-use software are expensed as incurred until technological feasibility is established. Once technological feasibility is established, software costs are capitalized until the product is available for general release to customers. Judgment is required in determining when technological feasibility of a product is established. Generally, this occurs shortly before the products are released to production. No external-use software costs were capitalized during any of theyears ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023.

Intangible Assets, Net

The Company’s intangible assets include developed technology, naming rights, customer relationships, trademarks, in-process research and development, non-compete agreements, and patents. Intangible assets with identifiable useful lives are initially valued at acquisition cost and are amortized over their estimated useful lives using the straight-line method. Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are assessed for impairment at least annually. In-process research and development is accounted for as an indefinite-lived intangible asset until the underlying project is completed, at which point the intangible asset will be accounted for as a definite-lived intangible asset.

Goodwill

Goodwill is the excess of the purchase price over the fair values assigned to the net assets acquired in a business combination. The Company tests goodwill for impairment on an annual basis, which it has determined to be the first day of the fourth quarter, and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. The Company tests goodwill qualitatively, or quantitatively by comparing the fair value of the reporting unit with the unit’s carrying amount. No impairment loss was recognized for any of theyears ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023.

Business Combinations

The Company recognizes and measures the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination based on their estimated fair values at the acquisition date. Goodwill as of the acquisition date represents the excess of the purchase consideration of an acquired business over the fair value of the underlying net tangible and intangible assets acquired net of liabilities assumed. The purchase consideration is determined based on the fair value of the assets transferred and liabilities assumed after considering any transactions that are separate from the business combination. Any adjustments to provisional amounts that are identified during the measurement period, not to exceed one year from the date of acquisition, are recorded in the reporting period in which the adjustment amounts are determined. Upon the conclusion of the measurement period, any subsequent adjustments are recorded in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

Long-lived assets, such as property and equipment and other long-term assets, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset or asset group may not be recoverable. If circumstances require a long-lived asset or asset group be tested for possible impairment, the Company first compares undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by that asset or asset group to its carrying amount. If the carrying amount of the long-lived asset or asset group is not recoverable on an undiscounted cash flow basis, an impairment is recognized to the extent the carrying amount of the underlying asset exceeds its fair value. Impairment losses werenot material for any of theyears ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023.

Warrant Liabilities

The Company evaluates its financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives in accordance with ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging.” For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, including warrant liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value on the issuance date and is then re-valued upon exercise or at each reporting date for the unexercised warrants, with changes in the fair value reported in the consolidated statements of operations. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is evaluated at the end of each reporting period. Derivative warrant liabilities are classified as non-current liabilities as their liquidation is not reasonably expected to require the use of current assets or require the creation of current liabilities.

Revenue Recognition

The Company derives revenue from the design, development, construction and sale of quantum ecosystem hardware together with related maintenance and support, from providing access to its quantum-computing-as-a-service (“QCaaS” services), from consulting services related to co-developing algorithms and other services related to the Company's quantum products, and from providing satellite imagery and data from its constellation of satellites through its online platform. The Company applies the provisions of the FASB Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”), Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”), and all related applicable guidance. The core principle of ASC 606 is that an entity shall recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services.

To support this core principle, the Company applies the following five step approach:

Identify the contract with the customer

Identify the performance obligations

Determine the transaction price

Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations

Recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation

Certain of the Company’s contracts contain multiple performance obligations, most commonly in contracts for the sale of quantum products together with related maintenance, consulting and other support. Certain contracts may also include access to the Company’s QCaaS. A contract’s transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when or as the performance obligation is satisfied. When there are multiple performance obligations in a contract, the Company allocates the transaction price to each performance obligation based on its standalone selling price when available. The Company determines standalone selling price based on the observable price of a product or service when it sells the products or services separately in similar circumstances and to similar customers. Certain products and services have limited or no history of being sold on a standalone basis, requiring the Company to estimate the standalone selling price. The Company estimates the standalone selling price based on other contracts for similar products and services adjusted for differing terms than the contract being evaluated, as well as internal pricing guidelines and market factors. In addition, the Company takes into consideration the estimated costs to be incurred to satisfy the performance obligation plus an appropriate profit margin.

Performance obligations are satisfied over time if the customer receives the benefits as the Company performs the work, if the customer controls the asset as it is being produced (continuous transfer of control), or if the product being produced for the customer has no alternative use and the Company has a contractual right to payment for performance to date. For performance obligations related to specialized quantum hardware and consulting services as well as customer solutions for specialized satellite development capabilities, revenue is recognized over time based on the efforts incurred to date relative to the total expected effort, primarily based on a cost-to-cost input measure. The Company applies judgment to determine a reasonable method to measure progress and to estimate total expected effort. Factors considered in these estimates include the Company’s historical performance, the availability, productivity and cost of labor, the nature and complexity of work to be performed, the effect of change orders, availability and cost of materials, and the effect of any delays in performance. For performance obligations related to certain quantum networking and sensing products and related services, revenue is recognized at the point in time when control passes to the customer, which is generally at the shipping point based on customary incoterms, or upon completion of the required services.

The Company has determined that its QCaaS contracts represent a combined, stand-ready performance obligation to provide access to its quantum computing systems together with related maintenance and support. Additionally, the Company has determined that its contracts to provide satellite imagery and data also represent a stand-ready performance obligation. The transaction price generally consists of a fixed fee for a minimum volume of usage to be made available over a defined period of access. Fixed fee arrangements may also include a variable component whereby customers pay an amount for usage over contractual minimums contained in the contracts. For performance obligations related to providing QCaaS access, fixed fees are recognized on a straight-line basis over the access period. Variable usage fees are recognized in the period they occur.

The Company may enter into multiple contracts with a single counterparty at or near the same time. The Company will combine contracts and account for them as a single contract when one or more of the following criteria are met: (i) the contracts are negotiated as a package with a single commercial objective; (ii) consideration to be paid in one contract depends on the price or performance of the other contract; and (iii) goods or services promised are a single performance obligation. Consideration payable to a customer includes cash amounts that an entity pays, or expects to pay, to the customer. For arrangements that contain consideration payable to a customer, the Company uses judgment in determining whether such payments are a reduction of the transaction price or a payment to the customer for a distinct good or service.

For the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, the majority of revenue was recognized based on transfer of service over time. In arrangements with cloud service providers, the cloud service provider is considered the customer and the Company does not have any contractual relationships with the cloud service providers’ end users. For these arrangements, revenue is recognized at the amount charged to the cloud service provider and does not reflect any mark-up to the end user.

The fees associated with the QCaaS and satellite imagery and data contracts are generally billed a month in arrears. Customers also have the ability to make advance payments. Advance payments are recorded as a contract liability until services are delivered or obligations are met and revenue is earned. Contract liabilities to be recognized in the succeeding 12-month period are classified as current and the remaining amounts are classified as non-current liabilities in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

Cost of Revenue

Cost of revenue primarily consists of expenses related to the delivery of the Company's quantum hardware products and delivery of its services, including personnel-related expenses, hardware costs, allocated overhead costs for customer facing functions, and costs associated with maintaining the Company's in-service quantum computing systems and satellites to ensure proper calibration as well as costs incurred for maintaining the cloud on which the Company delivers its services. Personnel-related expenses include salaries, benefits, and stock-based compensation. Cost of revenue excludes depreciation and amortization.

Research and Development

Research and development expenses consist of personnel-related costs, including salaries, benefits and stock-based compensation, and allocated overhead costs for the Company’s research and development function. Research and development is attributable to the advancing technology research, platform and infrastructure development, and the research and development of new product iterations, including quantum computing systems and networks and satellites. Design and development efforts continue throughout the useful life of the Company’s quantum computing systems and satellites to ensure proper calibration and optimal functionality. Research and development expenses also include purchased hardware and software costs related to quantum computing systems constructed for research purposes that are not probable of providing future economic benefit and have no alternate future use, as well as costs associated with third-party research and development arrangements.

In November 2025, the Company entered into a strategic collaboration agreement and master research agreement with the University of Chicago, pursuant to which the Company receives a license to certain intellectual property, as well as naming rights to a University of Chicago building. In exchange for the licensed intellectual property and naming rights, the University of Chicago received 2,108,993 shares of Company common stock, which were issued during the year ended December 31, 2025. The master research agreement is considered a research and development service arrangement and is recorded as a prepayment initially valued at $68.7 million based on the proportionate fair value of the common stock issued. The prepayment is recorded within prepaid and other current assets and other noncurrent assets in the consolidated balance sheets and is amortized over the term of the arrangement as services are received. Amortization of the prepayment is recognized in research and development in the consolidated statements of operations. The naming rights were recorded as intangible assets of $48.1 million based on the proportionate fair value of the common stock issued. The intangible assets are amortized based on the terms of the underlying agreements. The Company also entered into a commercial agreement for the sale of certain quantum computing hardware and services. During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company recognized $1.8 million of revenue from the commercial contract.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company measures and records the expense related to stock-based awards based on the fair value of those awards as determined on the date of grant. The Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense over the requisite service period of the individual grant, generally equal to the vesting period and uses the straight-line method to recognize stock-based compensation. The Company uses the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to determine the estimated fair value for stock options. The Black-Scholes option-pricing model requires the use of subjective assumptions, which determine the fair value of stock option awards, including the option’s expected term, the price volatility of the underlying common stock, risk-free interest rates, and the expected dividend yield of the common stock. The assumptions used to determine the fair value of the stock options represent management’s best estimates. These estimates involve inherent uncertainties and the application of management’s judgment. The Company records forfeitures as they occur.

Stock-based compensation cost for restricted stock units, performance-based restricted stock units, and restricted common stock is measured based on the fair value of the Company’s common stock on the grant date. The fair value of performance-based restricted stock units with a market condition is estimated on the date of grant using the Monte Carlo simulation model. The Monte Carlo simulation model requires the use of subjective assumptions, which determine the fair value of these awards, including price volatility, contractual term, discount rate, risk-free interest rates, and the expected dividend yield of the common stock. The assumptions used to determine the fair value of the performance-based restricted stock awards represent management’s best estimates. These estimates involve inherent uncertainties and the application of management’s judgment. For awards with a performance-based vesting condition, including those with a market condition, the Company records stock-based compensation cost if it is probable that the performance conditions will be achieved. Stock-based compensation cost will be recognized if the performance condition is satisfied, even if the market condition is not met and the award does not vest. At each reporting period, the Company reassesses the probability of the achievement of the performance conditions and any change in expense resulting from an adjustment in the estimated shares to be released is treated as a cumulative catch-up in the period of the adjustment.

The Company records stock-based compensation expense for incentive compensation liabilities based on estimated payments to employees for which the Company expects to settle the liability by granting restricted stock units. For these awards, stock-based compensation expense is accrued commencing at the service inception date, which generally precedes the grant date, through the end of the requisite service period.

Income Taxes

Income taxes are accounted for using the asset and liability method. Deferred income taxes are provided for temporary differences in recognizing certain income, expense and credit items for financial reporting purposes and tax reporting purposes. Such deferred income taxes primarily relate to the difference between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured by applying enacted statutory tax rates applicable to the future years in which deferred tax assets or liabilities are expected to be settled or realized. Excess tax benefits or tax deficiencies from stock option exercises are recognized in the income tax provision in the period in which they occur.

The Company records a valuation allowance when it determines, based on available positive and negative evidence, that it is not more-likely-than-not that some portion or all of its deferred tax assets will be realized.

Forcertain income tax positions, the Company uses a more-likely-than-not threshold based on the technical merits of the tax position taken. Tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are measured at the largest amount of tax benefits determined on a cumulative probability basis, which are more-likely-than-not to be realized upon ultimate settlement in the consolidated financial statements. The Company’s policy is to recognize interest and penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, investments, and trade accounts receivable. The Company maintains the majority of its cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and investments with several financial institutions. The Company’s deposits routinely exceed amounts guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.

The Company’s accounts receivable are derived from customers primarily located in the U.S., including the U.S. government. The Company performs periodic evaluations of its customers’ financial condition and generally does not require its customers to provide collateral or other security to support accounts receivable and maintains an allowance for credit losses. Credit losses historically have not been material.

Significant customers are those that represent more than 10% of the Company’s total revenue. For theyears ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, the Company hadthree, two, andtwo significant customers, respectively, that accounted for 53%,77%, and of 58% total revenue, respectively.

Earnings (Loss) Per Share

Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock during the period, plus common stock equivalents, outstanding during the period. If the Company reports a net loss, the computation of diluted loss per share excludes the effect of dilutive common stock equivalents, as their effect would be antidilutive.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted loss per share attributable to common stockholders (in thousands, except share and per share data):

In periods with a reported net loss, the effect of stock options, warrants, unvested restricted stock units, unvested performance-based restricted stock units, and unvested common stock (including unvested restricted common stock) are excluded and diluted loss per share is equal to basic loss per share. Thefollowing is a summary of the weighted average common stock equivalents for the securities outstanding during the respective periods that have been excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per common share:

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvement to Income Tax Disclosures to enhance the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures. ASU 2023-09 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, on a prospective basis, with early adoption permitted.

11. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

From time to time, the Company may become subject to litigation and other legal or administrative proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. When the Company becomes aware of a claim or potential claim, it assesses the likelihood of any loss or exposure. In accordance with authoritative guidance, the Company records loss contingencies in its financial statements only for matters with respect to which losses are probable and can be reasonably estimated. If the loss is not probable or the amount of loss cannot be reasonably estimated, the Company discloses the nature of the specific claim if the likelihood of a potential loss is reasonably possible and the amount involved is material. The Company continuously assesses the potential liability related to its pending litigation and revises its estimates when additional information becomes available. While it is not possible to predict the outcome of any such matter, based on its assessment of the facts and circumstances, the Company does not believe that any such matter, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on its balance sheet, results of operations or cash flows in a future period, and there were no legal proceedings pending other than those for which we have determined that the possibility of a material outflow is remote.

Warranties

The Company’s commercial services are typically warranted to perform in a manner consistent with general industry standards that are reasonably applicable and materially in accordance with the Company’s documentation under normal use and circumstances.

The Company’s arrangements generally include certain provisions for indemnifying customers against liabilities if its products or services infringe third- party intellectual property rights. To date, the Company has not incurred any material costs as a result of such obligations and has not accrued any liabilities related to such obligations in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

Indemnities

In the ordinary course of business, the Company may provide indemnities of varying scope and terms to customers, vendors, lessors, investors, directors, officers, employees and other parties with respect to certain matters, including, but not limited to, losses arising out of the Company’s breach of such agreements, services to be provided by the Company or intellectual property infringement claims made by third parties. While the Company’s future obligations under certain of these agreements may contain limitations on liability for indemnification, other agreements do not contain such limitations and under such agreements it is not possible to predict the maximum potential amount of future payments due to the conditional nature of the Company’s obligations and the unique facts and circumstances involved in each particular agreement. Historically, payments made by the Company under such indemnities have not had a material effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. The Company records a liability for its indemnification obligations when probable and estimable. Indemnity liabilities were not material as of December 31, 2025 and 2024.

Disaggregated Revenue

The Company’s revenue disaggregated by revenue source is as follows (in thousands):

The Company’s revenue disaggregated by customer location is as follows (in thousands):

Remaining Performance Obligations

As of December 31, 2025, approximately $370.0 million of revenue is expected to be recognized from remaining performance obligations that are unsatisfied (or partially unsatisfied), including both funded (firm orders for which funding has been both authorized and appropriated by the customer) and unfunded (firm orders for which funding has not been appropriated) orders. Unexercised contract options are not included in remaining performance obligations until the time the option is exercised. The Company expects approximately 40% of the remaining performance obligations to be recognized as revenue within the next twelve months.

Unearned Revenue

Contract liabilities consist of unearned revenue and represent cash payments received or contracted billings recorded for which the performance obligations were not satisfied as of the end of the period. The change in unearned revenue for the year ended December 31, 2025, primarily relates to such cash payments received or contracted billings recorded, as well as the addition of unearned revenue through acquisitions, partially offset by revenue recognized.

16. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

Equity Incentive Plans

The Company sponsors the 2015 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2015 Plan”), which provided for the grant of share-based compensation to certain officers, directors, employees, consultants, and advisors. Subsequent to September 2021, no further awards were made pursuant to the 2015 Plan. For awards granted under the 2015 Plan, vesting generally occurs over four tofive years from the date of grant.

The Company also sponsors the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2021 Plan”), which provides for the grant of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock awards, restricted stock unit awards (“RSU”), performance awards and other forms of awards to employees, directors, and consultants. The number of shares of the Company’s common stock reserved for issuance under the 2021 Plan automatically increases on January 1 of each year, through and including January 1, 2031, by 5% of the fully diluted common stock (as defined in the 2021 Plan) outstanding on December 31 of the preceding year, or a lesser number of shares determined by the Company’s board of directors prior to such increase. As of January 1,2026, the number of shares reserved for issuance under the 2021 Plan increased by 25,069,103. For awards granted under the 2021 Plan, vesting terms range from less thanone year tofour years from the date of grant.

In May 2025, in connection with the Lightsynq Acquisition, the Company assumed the Lightsynq Technologies Inc. 2024 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Lightsynq Plan”). Upon closing of the Lightsynq Acquisition, no further awards were made pursuant to the Lightsynq Plan and certain outstanding Lightsynq stock options under the Lightsynq Plan were assumed by the Company. Such stock options granted under the Lightsynq Plan will continue to be governed by the terms of the Lightsynq Plan and the stock option agreements thereunder, until such outstanding options are exercised or until they terminate or expire. For awards granted under the Lightsynq Plan, vesting generally occurs over four years from the date of grant. As of December 31, 2025, the Company hadno shares available for grant under the Lightsynq Plan.

Under each equity incentive plan, all options granted have a contractual term of 10 years.

Stock Options

The Company estimates the fair value of stock options on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The Black-Scholes option-pricing model requires estimates of highly subjective assumptions, which affect the fair value of each stock option. For stock options granted during the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, the assumptions for the Black-Scholes option-pricing model were developed as follows:

Expected Volatility—The expected volatility was based on the average historical stock price volatility of comparable publicly-traded companies in the Company's industry peer group, financial, and market capitalization data, due to the limited history of a public market for the Company's common stock relative to the expected term of the options.

Expected Term—The expected term of the Company’s options represents the period that the stock options are expected to be outstanding.

The Company has estimated the expected term of its employee stock option awards using the SAB Topic 14 Simplified Method allowed by the FASB and SEC for calculating expected term. Certain of the Company’s stock options began vesting prior to the grant date, in which case the Company uses the remaining vesting term at the grant date in the expected term calculation.

Risk-Free Interest Rate—The Company estimates its risk-free interest rate by using the yield on actively traded non-inflation-indexed U.S. treasury securities with contract maturities equal to the expected term.

Dividend Yield—The Company has not declared or paid dividends to date and does not anticipate declaring dividends. As such, the dividend yield has been estimated to bezero.

Fair Value of Underlying Common Stock—The Company utilizes the closing stock price on the date of grant as the fair value of the common stock underlying such stock options in the Black-Scholes option-pricing model.

The assumptions used to estimate the fair value of stock options granted are as follows:

The stock option activity is summarized in the following table:

(1)

In connection with certain acquisitions, the Company converted certain outstanding stock options of the acquirees into stock options to acquire common stock of the Company, for which $11.3 million of the fair value was attributed to pre-combination services and was allocated to purchase consideration.

The following table summarizes additional information on stock option grants, replacements, vesting and exercises (in millions, except per share amounts):

Restricted Stock Units

The RSU activity is summarized in the following table:

The following table summarizes additional information on RSU grants and vesting (in millions, except per share amounts):

During the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, the Company released 206,316,1,064,518 and 566,389 RSUs, respectively, related to the settlement of an accrued bonus liability.

Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units

From fiscal year 2023 to fiscal year 2025, the Company granted performance-based restricted stock unit awards (“PSU”) to certain officers, employees and consultants, which vest over approximatelytwo to four years. The number of shares that can be earned ranges from 0% to 300% of the target number of shares, based on the Company’s achievement of certain performance goals, as well as a stock price hurdle requirement for a portion of the awards. Ifthe stock price hurdle is not met at the time the PSUs vest, the maximum PSU opportunity is limited to target (100%) performance.

During fiscal year 2025, the Company granted PSU awards to certain officers and employees, which vest over approximatelytwo tothree years. The number of shares that can be earned ranges from 0% to 200% of the target number of shares based on the Company’s achievement of certain performance goals.

The number of PSUs expected to vest and for which compensation cost has been recognized is based on the number of shares that the Company believes are probable of vesting as of December 31, 2025.

For those PSUs subject to the stock price hurdle, the fair value was determined using a Monte Carlo simulation model. For PSUs granted during the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, the assumptions for the Monte Carlo simulation model were developed as follows:

Expected Volatility—The expected volatility in 2025 and 2024 was determined based on the Company's historical and implied stock price volatility. The expected volatility in 2023 was based on the average historical stock price volatility of comparable publicly traded companies in the Company's industry peer group, financial, and market capitalization data, due to the limited history of a public market for the Company's common stock relative to the contractual term of the PSUs.

Contractual Term—The Company utilizes the remaining performance period on the date of grant as the contractual term, which represents the period that the PSUs are expected to be outstanding.

Risk-Free Interest Rate—The Company estimates its risk-free interest rate by using the yield on actively traded non-inflation-indexed U.S. treasury securities with contract maturities equal to the expected term.

Dividend Yield—The Company has not declared or paid dividends to date and does not anticipate declaring dividends. As such, the dividend yield has been estimated to bezero.

Fair Value of Underlying Common Stock—The Company utilizes the closing stock price on the date of grant as the fair value of the common stock underlying such PSUs in the Monte Carlo simulation model.

The assumptions used to estimate the fair value of PSUs subject to the stock price hurdle are as follows:

The PSU activity is summarized in the following table, based on awards at target:

(1)

Represents the number of PSUs expected to vest, which may exceed the target number of shares, based on the Company's probability assessment of expected performance during the performance period.

The following table summarizes additional information on PSU grants and vesting (in millions, except per share amounts):

Restricted Stock

The restricted stock activity is summarized in the following table:

(1)

In connection with certain acquisitions, the Company converted certain outstanding restricted stock of the acquirees into restricted stock of the Company, for which $48.1 million of the fair value was attributed to pre-combination services and was allocated to purchase consideration.

The following table summarizes additional information on restricted stock grants, replacements and vesting (in millions, except per share amounts):

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

In August 2021, the Company’s board of directors adopted the Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “ESPP”), which was subse quently approved by the Company’s stockholders in September 2021, and became effective upon the closing of the Business Combination. The ESPP is intended to qualify as an “employee stock purchase plan” within the meaning of Section 423 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). The number of shares of Company common stock initially reserved for issuance under the ESPP was 5,354,000 shares. The ESPP provides for an annual increase on January 1 of each year and continuing through and including January 1, 2031, equal to the lesser of (i)1% of the fully diluted shares of common stock outstanding on the last day of the prior fiscal year, (ii)10,708,000 shares, or (iii) a lesser number of shares determined by the Company’s board of directors prior to such increase. As of January 1,2026, the number of shares reserved for issuance under the ESPP increased by 5,067,361.

Under the terms of the ESPP, eligible employees can elect to acquire shares of the Company’s common stock through periodic payroll deductions during a series of offering periods. Purchases under the ESPP are affected on the last business day of each offering period at a 15% discount to the lower of closing price on that day or the closing price on the first day of the offering period. As of December 31, 2025, no shares of common stock had been issued under the ESPP and no offering period had been set by the board of directors.

17. INCOME TAXES

Net loss before income taxes consisted of the following (in thousands):

The current and deferred income tax expense (benefit) of the provision for income taxes for federal, state and foreign jurisdictions are as follows (in thousands):

The Company’s provision for income taxes differs from the amount determined by applying the applicable federal statutory tax rate to the loss before income taxes primarily due to the valuation allowance for the net deferred income tax assets. The Company recognized an income tax benefit for the year ended December 31, 2025, of $44.6 million primarily related to the recognition of net deferred tax liabilities in connection with certain acquisitions, which resulted in a decrease to the Company's valuation allowance.

The following table reconciles the U.S. statutory tax rate to the Company's effective tax rate for theyear ended December 31, 2025 (in thousands, except for percentages):

(1)

State taxes in California, Maryland, and New York made up the majority of the tax effect in this category.

The following table reconciles the U.S. statutory tax rate to the Company's effective tax rate for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023:

Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. Significant components of the Company’s deferred tax assets and liabilities are as follows (in thousands):

The following table summarizes the activity in the Company’s valuation allowance against its gross deferred tax assets (in thousands):

The Company had U.S. federal, state, and foreign net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $653.8 million, $454.7 million, and $140.6 million, respectively, as of December 31, 2025. The Company’s U.S. federal net operating loss carryforwards generated prior to January 1, 2018, of $9.7 million will begin to expire, if not utilized, in 2036, and net operating loss carry forwards generated after January 1, 2018, of $644.1 million will carryforward indefinitely, although limited to 80% of taxable income annually. The Company has $357.0 million in definite-lived state net operating loss carryforwards, which will begin to expire in 2033. The Company has $80.0 million in definite-lived foreign net operating loss carryforwards, of which $15.8 million will begin to expire in 2026 and the remaining will carryforward indefinitely. As of December 31, 2025, the Company had U.S. federal and state tax credit carryforwards of $64.2 million. The tax credit carryforwards will expire between 2026 and 2045.

The deductibility of such credits and net operating losses (“NOL”) may be limited. Under Sections 383 and 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and corresponding provisions of state law, if a corporation undergoes an “ownership change,” which generally occurs if the percentage of the corporation’s stock owned by 5% stockholders increases by more than 50% over athree-year period, the corporation’s ability to use its pre-change credits and NOL carryforwards and other pre-change tax attributes to offset its post-change income, may be limited. The Company has not determined if it has experienced Section 383/382 ownership changes in the past and if a portion of its NOL and tax credit carryforwards are subject to an annual limitation. In addition, the Company may experience ownership changes in the future as a result of subsequent shifts in its stock ownership, some of which may be outside of its control. If the Company determines that an ownership change has occurred and its ability to use its historical NOL and tax credit carryforwards is significantly limited, it would harm the Company’s future operating results by effectively increasing its future tax obligations.

The Company has evaluated the positive and negative evidence bearing upon the realizability of its deferred tax assets. Based on the Company’s history of operating losses, including athree-year cumulative loss position as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company has concluded that it is not more likely than not that its net deferred income tax assets will be realized in the U.S. and Switzerland. Accordingly, the Company has provided afull valuation allowance for those jurisdictions as of December 31, 2025 and 2024. The net increase in the valuation allowance of $185.7 million is due to the impact of current year operating losses, research and development credits, and acquired deferred income tax assets, offset by decreases for acquired deferred income tax liabilities.

The Company considers the outside basis of its foreign subsidiaries to be indefinitely reinvested as it intends to further invest in its foreign operations. The determination of any unrecorded deferred income tax asset or liability on the remaining excess carrying amount of the Company's investments over their respective tax bases is not practicable due to the uncertainty of how these investments would be recovered and such differences are not expected to be recognized in the foreseeable future.

Uncertain income tax positions werenot material as of December 31, 2025 and 2024. Interest and penalties recorded in the consolidated statements of operations werenot material for any of theyears ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023. Cash paid for income taxes isnot material for any of theyears ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023.

The Company files incomes tax returns in the United States, including various state jurisdictions, and in various foreign jurisdictions. The current tax years that are subject for examination are tax years 2021 through 2024, although tax years dating back to 2016 remain open up to the tax attribute amounts carried forward for future use.

22. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On January 25, 2026, the Company entered into a definitive agreement to acquire SkyWater Technology, Inc. (“SkyWater”), a U.S.-based semiconductor foundry, for total consideration of approximately $1.8 billion in a cash-and-stock transaction. Under the terms of the agreement, SkyWater shareholders will receive $15.00 in cash and $20.00 in shares of IonQ common stock, subject to a collar, for each share of SkyWater common stock held at close of the transaction. The stock component is subject to a collar under which SkyWater shareholders will receive shares of IonQ common stock valued at $20.00 per SkyWater share, based on the volume weighted-average price of IonQ stock as of three business days before closing, unless such volume-weighted average is greater than $60.13 per share, in which case SkyWater shareholders will receive 0.3326 IonQ shares per SkyWater share, or less than $37.99 per share, in which case SkyWater shareholders will receive 0.5265 IonQ shares per SkyWater share. The transaction is expected to close within the next twelve months, subject to customary closing conditions, including approval by SkyWater’s shareholders and regulatory approval.
