The revenue figure itself cleared expectations by 23.50%, driven in part by the upgrade of the Jülich Supercomputing Centre system to an Advantage2 processor, which helped expand gross margin to 71.4% from 55.8% a year earlier. While the headline net loss ballooned to $139.99 million, largely due to $121.86 million in non-cash warrant liability charges, the adjusted loss of $18.13 million actually improved meaningfully from $23.19 million in Q3 2024. Looking ahead, D-Wave has already closed over $12 million in post-quarter bookings, including a €10 million contract for a quantum computing facility in Lombardy, Italy, while a cash position of $836.23 million gives the company ample runway to advance its gate-model quantum computing program.
Key Takeaways
- • Revenue doubled year-over-year driven by growing quantum computing adoption across commercial and research applications
- • GAAP gross margin improved to 71.4% from 55.8% YoY, aided by the upgrade of the Jülich Supercomputing Centre system to Advantage2 processor
- • Q3 bookings increased 80% sequentially to $2.4 million
- • Over 100 revenue-generating customers including nearly two dozen Forbes Global 2000 companies
- • YTD revenue of $21.8 million, up 235% year-over-year, driven in part by a higher-margin quantum computer system sale
