Here's How D-Wave Quantum's Profitability Remains Under Pressure

D-Wave Quantum's QBTS revenues remain uneven and dependent on large system contracts, making quarterly performance susceptible to volatility. System sales fell to just $0.3 million in the first half of 2026 from $13.7 million a year earlier. The company expects most fiscal 2026 revenues in the fourth quarter as two annealing systems reach acceptance milestones. Any delays in installation or calibration could defer some of these revenues to 2027. Although backlog and deferred revenues provide some future visibility, recurring QCaaS revenues are not yet large enough to offset fluctuations in sys

Prediction: D-Wave Quantum's Revenue Triples Before 2030

Quantum computing companies are finally starting to generate real revenue. IonQ (NYSE:IONQ), for instance, raised its full-year 2026 revenue outlook to a range of $450 million to $460 million ahead of its first joint investor day on Tuesday -- helped by the addition of SkyWater Technology, the chipmaking business it acquired at the end of July. D-Wave Quantum (NASDAQ:QBTS) is at a much earlier stage. The quantum computing specialist's revenue for the first half of 2026 fell 67% year over year to $5.9 million. Missed Nvidia in 2009?

Hyperscalers Bet on AI & Quantum: Watch GOOGL, AMZN, IBM in September

Hyperscalers are committing hundreds of billions of dollars to data centers, accelerators, networking and power infrastructure to meet surging demand for AI workloads. The scale is evident in Alphabet's planned $195-$205 billion of 2026 capital spending, while Google Cloud revenues jumped 82% year over year in the second quarter of 2026. Quantum computing is following a different path.

3 Quantum Stocks Just Scored $100 Million in Government Funding. Which Is the Best to Buy Now?

The race to develop a fault-tolerant quantum computer has been ongoing, and the stakes are high. The technology is expected to be the next big advancement after artificial intelligence, and the U.S. government wants to make sure that a U.S.-based company is leading the way. As such, the government recently doled out $100 million each to three quantum stocks under the CHIPS Act. Which stock is the best buy will largely be determined by their technology and how far along each is. Let's dig into the three stocks to see which one stands out. Missed Nvidia in 2009?

Quick Read IonQ sinks 4% to $38.77 as 60% Fed rate-hike odds crush pre-revenue quantum names, with Rigetti and D-Wave each sliding 2%. SPY drops just 0.6% versus quantum's steeper losses, signaling rotation out of speculative growth while QTUM's 36% YTD gain cushions the sector ETF. The 10-year Treasury yield near 4.8% lifts discount rates on distant cash flows, punishing pure plays that are already down between 13% and 34% year to date. Just released.

3 Quantum Computing Stocks Have Issued a $63 Million Warning This Year That Wall Street Cannot Ignore

Quantum computing has gone from a pipe dream to a sector the market believes could become reality, perhaps more quickly than initially expected. Quantum computers are built on qubits in a constant state of superposition that can process much more data than traditional computers and explore many answers simultaneously. Experts believe quantum computing will one day be much more capable than even the most advanced supercomputers available today, and also that the technology could be commercialized.

Quantum Stocks Are Climbing Today as CHIPS Act Cash Pours In. Hereโ€™s One Way to Invest.

Image by Funtap via Shutterstock Quantum computing stocks rallied on Tuesday as the U.S. Department of Commerce finalized $100 million CHIPS and Science Act awards to each of three pure-play quantum firms โ€” D-Wave Quantum (QBTS), Rigetti Computing (RGTI), and Quantinuum (QNT) โ€” totaling $300 million in combined federal investment. In exchange for the funding, the Commerce Department will acquire minority, non-controlling equity stakes in Rigetti and D-Wave, a structure designed to provide potential upside for U.S. taxpayers while avoiding interference with corporate governance.

Rising Risks Overshadow D-Wave Quantum Booking: Sell or Hold QBTS Now?

D Wave Quantum (QBTS) Stock Trades At A Premium As Its 17x Three Year Run Continues

D-Wave Quantum stock has delivered a very large 3 year gain, yet on broad valuation checks it still screens as expensive rather than a clear bargain. The recent share price swings and legal scrutiny give investors a lot to weigh before deciding what that premium means for risk and return. The stock has returned about 17x over 3 years, which puts extra focus on how much future growth is already reflected in the price. Commercial use cases for D-Wave Quantum's annealing systems can support long term revenue hopes, while rapid cash burn and legal investigations following the recent revenue miss h

Two Quantum Computing Stocks Are Starting to Pull Ahead of the Pack

With second-quarter earnings now in the books for quantum computing stocks, it appears that two are starting to pull away from the pack: IonQ (NYSE: IONQ) and Quantinuum (NASDAQ: QNT). This perhaps should not be surprising, as these are the two companies using a trapped-ion approach, which has thus far proven to be the most accurate. IonQ has reached 99.99% two-qubit gate fidelity, while Quantinuum has achieved 99.92%, putting them both far ahead of the pack in this metric. Missed Nvidia in 2009?

The Bull Case For D-Wave Quantum (QBTS) Could Change Following New NRC Funding And Nature-Published Gate Breakthrough

In August 2026, D-Wave Quantum announced it had secured up to C$300,000 in funding from Canada's National Research Council and published peer-reviewed Nature research on a high-fidelity, hardware-level error-correcting two-qubit gate already integrated into its dual-rail gate-model systems. Together, this government-backed software project and fault-tolerant gate-model breakthrough underscore D-Wave's effort to commercialize both annealing and gate-model quantum platforms for complex, real-world optimization and simulation workloads.

Infleqtionโ€™s Infleqtionโ€™s second-quarter numbers tell a familiar tech growth story: near-term losses continued to widen even as demand for its array of quantum technologies push revenue higher. Milestone-based payments from a NASA project drove most of the growth in the latest quarterโ€”which was โ€œ100% organic and entirely from quantum,โ€ CEO Matt Kinsella said. Infleqtion ultimately reported a wider loss of 12 cents a share, though revenue beat projections at $12.6 million, a 116% jump from the prior year. Continue Reading

IonQ, D-Wave or Rigetti: Which Quantum Stock Is the Best Buy After Q2?

The macro backdrop remains a consideration for investors in early-stage quantum stocks. The Federal Reserve maintained its federal funds target range at 3.5%-3.75% in July, keeping the cost-of-capital environment relatively restrictive for companies that continue to report operating losses and invest heavily in commercialization.

The score shows direction

It describes the weighted balance of qualifying headlines. A score of 50 can mean balanced news or that there is not enough evidence; the status label explains which.

Confidence is separate

Confidence measures depth, source breadth, direct relevance, freshness and agreement. It does not rise merely because the tone is extreme.

Price is confirmation

Weekly price response, trend and fair-value position test whether the market is accepting or rejecting the news. They never rewrite the news score.
