Infleqtion (NYSE: INFQ), (the “Company”) a global leader in quantum computing and quantum sensing powered by neutral-atom technology, today reported Q1 2026 revenue of $9.5 million, up 14% year over year. Q1 performance reflected continued execution across the Company’s quantum computing, sensing, and software portfolio, supported by expanding customer activity in national security, space, and hybrid quantum-AI applications.
First Quarter 2026 Financial Highlights
- Record Q1 revenue of $9.5 million, up 14% year over year; 100% organic and 100% from quantum
- GAAP loss from operations of $33.6 million
- Non-GAAP loss from operations of $13.2 million, which excludes stock-based compensation, acquisition and integration costs and go-public transaction expenses
- Net cash used in operations of $19.2 million with capital expenditures of $0.3 million
- Cash, cash equivalents and available-for-sale securities of $569 million as of March 31, 2026
Updated 2026 Guidance
- Increased revenue guidance for 2026 to at least $40 million supported by expanding customer activity across the Company’s quantum portfolio
Recent Milestones and Commercial Progress
- Announced Infleqtion’s role as a collaborator on NASA JPL’s Quantum Gravity Gradiometer Pathfinder mission, supported by $20 million in contracts to date
- Delivered upgraded quantum hardware for NASA’s Cold Atom Lab aboard the International Space Station building on Infleqtion’s quantum technology operating aboard the ISS since 2018
- Announced availability of a first-of-its-kind partnership for quantum-enabled precision timing solution with Safran Electronics & Defense, integrating Infleqtion’s Tiqker™ quantum optical clock with Safran’s White Rabbit and SecureSync® systems to deliver resilient timing for mission-critical systems in GNSS-challenged environments
- Announced the acceleration of Quantum Spectrum, the Company’s atom-based RF sensing platform, in response to growing customer interest. Quantum Spectrum was the second-largest contributor to sensing revenue, with multiple new customer programs addressing demand for trusted signals and resilient communication in contested environments
- Expanded Infleqtion’s quantum software programs across defense, energy, and research customers, including a milestone win with the DARPA HARQ program. New engagements span compiler development, energy-grid optimization, and computational chemistry
- Contracted with the U.S. Navy to advance Infleqtion’s Contextual Machine Learning software for RF signal processing, with development underway toward an integrated prototype
- Selected for two U.S. Department of Energy programs to advance quantum computing applications in chemistry, materials science, and energy grid optimization, addressing markets representing trillions of dollars in global economic value
- Advanced Infleqtion’s collaboration with NVIDIA through adoption of NVIDIA Ising AI models for quantum processor calibration and error-correction decoding on the Company’s Sqale neutral-atom quantum computer
- Began trading on the NYSE under the symbol “INFQ” as the first publicly traded neutral-atom quantum computing company, marking a new chapter in the commercialization of quantum technology
“Q1 reinforced our confidence that quantum is gaining momentum as the market shifts toward deployable systems, real applications, and measurable customer value,” said Matt Kinsella, CEO of Infleqtion. “Across computing, sensing, and software, we are seeing expanding customer activity especially in national security, space, and hybrid quantum-AI applications. These trends support our updated full-year outlook and strengthen our confidence in the year ahead.”
“First quarter revenue of $9.5 million, up 14% year over year, is all organic and generated entirely from quantum products and software,” said Ilan Hart, Chief Financial Officer of Infleqtion. “Our strong cash position gives us flexibility to invest in R&D and go-to-market capability ahead of market momentum while maintaining disciplined operating controls.”
