Current report
Our goal for 2025 is to introduce the next generation of our modular system architecture, while continuing to increase fidelities. On July 16, 2025, we announced that we achieved our mid-year performance milestone of 99.5% median two-qubit gate fidelity on a modular 36-qubit system, a 2x reduction in median two-qubit gate error rate from our previous best results on our 84-qubit single chip Ankaa™-3 system. Composed of four 9-qubit chips (“chiplets”) tiled together and optimized for CZ gates, a commonly used two-qubit gate for executing quantum circuits with equivalent computational power to iSWAP gates, the 36-qubit system is based on our proprietary modular chip technology and provides a path to building a 100+ qubit chiplet-based system. Our 36-qubit system,** **Cepheus™-1-36Q, has been released for general availability and deployed on our Cloud Services Platform (QCS®) and will be available on Microsoft Azure thereafter. We expect to release a 100+ qubit chiplet-based system with a 99.5% median two-qubit gate fidelity before the end of 2025.

2025 ATM Offering
Current report
On May 29, 2025, we entered into an Open Market Sale Agreement TM (the “Sales Agreement”) with Jefferies LLC with respect to an At-the-Market (“ATM”) offering program, pursuant to which we sold, from time to time at our sole discretion, shares of our common stock having an aggregate offering price of $350 million. The shares offered and sold in the ATM offering were issued pursuant to a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 and the related prospectus supplement. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, we raised gross proceeds of $350 million from the sale of 30,309,780 shares of our common stock pursuant to the Sales Agreement, at a weighted average price of $11.55 per share. The net proceeds from the Sales Agreement during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 were $346.7 million. As of June 30, 2025, there were no remaining shares available for sale pursuant to the Sales Agreement.
Current report
Cost of revenue increased by $0.1 million and decreased by $0.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, when compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively. Theincreasein cost of revenue during the three months ended June 30, 2025 was due to an unfavorable revenue mix, with more revenue and cost of revenue coming from contracts with higher costs and a lower gross margin profile, mostly offset by the impact of lower revenue levels on cost of revenue. The decrease in cost of revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2025 was due to the impact of lower revenue levels on cost of revenue, offset in part by the unfavorable revenue mix.
Current report
Research and development expenses increased by $1.7 million and $5.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, when compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively.
Current report
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $0.7 million for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, when compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively. The increase for both periods was mainly due to higher costs for proxy distribution and solicitation related to our annual meeting during the three months ended June 30, 2025, as compared to costs related to our annual meeting during the three months ended June 30, 2024, which was driven by the increase in the number of beneficial owners of our common stock.
Current report
On July 4, 2025, new federal tax and budget legislation, known as the “One Big Beautiful Bill Act” (“OBBA”) was signed into law. Any financial impacts from the legislation will be reflected in our condensed consolidated financial statements during the three months ended September 30, 2025 when the legislation became law. We presently do not expect the OBBA to have a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements.
Current report
On June 30, 2025, the last business day of our second fiscal quarter in 2025, the aggregate market value of our voting and non-voting common equity held by non-affiliates exceeded $700.0 million. Accordingly, we will be deemed to be a “large accelerated filer” under the rules of the SEC as of December 31, 2025. As such, we will no longer (i) qualify as an EGC under the rules of the SEC, (ii) be eligible to take advantage of the extended transition period for the adoption of new or revised accounting pronouncements available to an EGC beginning with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025 and (iii) be exempt from providing an auditor’s attestation report on internal control over financial reporting pursuant to Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. In addition, under the current rules of the SEC, we will no longer be eligible to take advantage of the scaled disclosures available to smaller reporting companies beginning with our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the first quarter of 2026.

Previous wording
With the goal of unlocking this opportunity, we have developed the world’s first multi-chip quantum processor for scalable quantum computing systems. We believe that this patented and patent pending, modular chip architecture is the building block for new generations of quantum processors that we expect to achieve a clear advantage over classical computers. Our long-term business model centers on revenue generated from sales of quantum processing units (QPUs) and quantum computing systems made accessible via the cloud in the form of Quantum Computing as a Service (“QCaaS’) products. However, the substantial majority of our revenues are derived from development contracts, and we anticipate this market opportunity will continue to represent an important source of revenue for at least the next several years as we work to ramp up sales of QPUs and our QCaaS business. Additionally, we are working to further develop a revenue stream and forging important customer relationships by entering into technology development contracts with various partners.

Results of our operations have varied and may continue to vary based on the impact of changes in the domestic or global economy. Negative conditions in the general economy both in the United States and abroad, including conditions resulting from changes in gross domestic product growth, inflation, interest rates, financial and credit market fluctuations, supply chain constraints, international trade policies including tariffs and export controls, national security interests, pandemics, political turmoil, natural catastrophes, warfare, and terrorist attacks in the United States or elsewhere, could negatively affect our business, including progress toward the development of quantum computing by increasing the cost of materials and components and our operating costs. It is not possible at this time to estimate the long-term impact that these and related events could have on our business, as the impact will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted. If these conditions persist and deepen, we could experience an inability to access additional capital if needed, or our liquidity could otherwise be impacted, and the trading price of our Common Stock could decline.

The increase in research and development expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2025, when compared to the three months ended March 31, 2024, was mainly due to a $2.1 million increase in salaries and employee related costs, a $1.1 million increase in stock-based compensation and a $0.4 million increase in consulting charges. All other expenses increased by $0.4 million. The increase in salaries and employee related costs was due to annual salary increases, new hires, higher FICA taxes related to the vesting of restricted stock units and the increase in our stock price and a reduction in the amount of engineering time used to deliver revenue. The increase in stock-based compensation was mainly due to employee spot bonuses paid with restricted stock units. More consultants were used in the three months ended March 31, 2025, when compared to the three months ended March 31, 2024.
Current wording
The increase in research and development expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2025, when compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024, was mainly due to a $1.2 million increase in salaries and employee related costs and a $0.5 million increase in consulting services. The increase in research and development expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2025, when compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024, was mainly due to a $3.2 million increase in salaries and employee related costs, a $1.1 million increase in stock based compensation, a $0.9 million increase in consulting services and a $0.4 million increase in all other costs. The increase in salaries and employee related costs in both periods was due to annual salary increases, new hires and higher Federal Insurance Contributions Act (“FICA”) taxes related to the vesting of RSUs and the increase in our stock price. The increase in stock-based compensation for the six months ended June 30, 2025 was mainly due to the grant of RSUs for employee spot bonuses.

In April 2012, the JOBS Act was enacted. Section 107 of the JOBS Act provides that an “emerging growth company” may take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards. Therefore, an emerging growth company can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. Following the Business Combination, we still qualify as an emerging growth company and plan to take advantage of the extended transition period that emerging growth company status permits. During the extended transition period, it may be difficult or impossible to compare our financial results with the financial results of another public company that complies with public company effective dates for accounting standard updates because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.
