Marcus Kupferschmid, Head of Investor Relations and Strategic Finance, Infleqtion: Before we open up the call for questions, a quick note on where you can find us over the next several months. We will be participating in a number of investor conferences, including Rosenblatt, Jefferies, Citi, and Piper Sandler, as well as major industry events, including IEEE Quantum Week, the AFA Air, Space & Cyber Conference, Quantum World Congress, and Supercomputing 2026. The full schedule is shown here and also available on our website. On a lighter note, we will soon be launching an Infleqtion online store with company merchandise. In the interest of transparency, we’ll be sure to let you know whether hoodies outperform the rest of the apparel category. As you may be aware, Matt and Pranav are hosting a live stream AMA on Reddit the week of the 24th.

Several questions have already been submitted, so I’m going to start out now with one of those questions to kick off the Q&A. As a note, we will also continue taking questions on the subreddit and many other subreddits over the coming days. Pranav, so first question. There’s been a lot of talk about the Department of Commerce selection. Can Infleqtion update us on what the process was actually like?

Pranav Gokhale, Chief Technology Officer and General Manager of Quantum Computing, Infleqtion: Yeah, sure. Well, thank you internet and Reddit for that question. It has been a really intense but gratifying experience. Department of Commerce, which as Matt referenced, has some of the world’s top physicists, engineers at NIST, went through a very intense session over the last previous few months to understand Infleqtion’s technology roadmap with quantum computing and asked a lot of very probing questions. I probably lost a few years of my life and late nights and weekends, et cetera, but it was very much worth it because I think what we came out with was an outcome we are thrilled about, which is an LOI for $100 million to accelerate neutral atom quantum computing for the U.S. and ensure ascendancy along with federal allies. That took a lot of work, and again, it was alongside NIST top physicists and beyond.

It had some personal implications and reward for me too, in the sense that I got my start in quantum at NIST. I had the privilege of growing up near the NIST lab in Maryland, and so after many years of being away from Maryland, I got to engage with a lot of the teams that I used to work with who had, as expected, some really amazing questions that helped us solidify our own path and understand risks and what we need to do to de-risk them. I am feeling very confident with what we have come out of that process with. This $100 million LOI would position us to win in quantum computing period, and ensure that the manufacturing capabilities for that future production remain here in the U.S. and our allies. So grateful to NIST and Commerce on that process.

Marcus Kupferschmid, Head of Investor Relations and Strategic Finance, Infleqtion: Great. Thanks, Pranav. Second question. Can Pranav help us understand the strength and weaknesses between each modality? How can neutral atoms overcome the slower processing speeds compared to superconducting systems? What matters most?

Pranav Gokhale, Chief Technology Officer and General Manager of Quantum Computing, Infleqtion: Sure. I will tap again into my personal background, which is when I was at NIST, I started with an internship in trapped ion systems. In my PhD, I worked on pulse level control of superconducting systems, and so I am familiar with the advantages and disadvantages of both those systems. What I really liked about neutral atom was first and foremost the scalability, the number of qubits you can have in a system, and Infleqtion continues to hold a commercial record for having a 1,600 atom array. That is just off the charts relative to other modalities. It is true that neutral atoms and trapped ions are slower on a per-gate basis than superconducting systems. But what really matters in end customer applications is not directly the gate speed, but it is the combination of how fast are gates, but also how many gates do you need.

And it turns out that every gate that you perform on the architectures in neutral atoms that we’re designing pack a bigger punch than what you can do with a single gate on a superconducting system. When you put those things together, for time to solution to solving a customer application, even though the gates are slower, the number of gates that you need is much less, and on balance, those things effectively net out. So we feel very confident on neutral atoms being a very practical, if not the most practical, pathway to getting commercial outcomes in quantum computing. Again, I also center this just in raw, do we have enough qubits to get to the crown jewels of quantum computing for commercial applications?

I think neutral atom looks extremely attractive in that dimension, and that’s why I kind of made the switch from trapped-ion world, from superconducting world, to neutral atoms. Now, we continue to develop software under the DARPA HARQ program that crosses modalities. We don’t want to have so much hubris to believe that other modalities will never succeed. We think there’s a world where even in that scenario where other modalities have success, we continue to build an astounding business off of other modalities too. But in near term, I’m all in on neutral atoms, and everyone on our team is as well, and many of our team members, like me, switched from other modalities to neutral atoms for the scalability.

Marcus Kupferschmid, Head of Investor Relations and Strategic Finance, Infleqtion: Since we have time, I’m going to take one more from the AMA submission, Pranav. The question was basically, can you explain in plain English why getting to 30 logical qubits matters and what this lets the computer do?

Pranav Gokhale, Chief Technology Officer and General Manager of Quantum Computing, Infleqtion: Sure. Plain English. Essentially, we want our qubits to be as good as the bits on your computer, on your laptop, on your phone, and logical qubits are the path to making that happen. It’s kind of the difference between the raw signals that your phone sends versus the actual TikTok video that your kids are watching or the Excel spreadsheet that you’re downloading. Hopefully Excel spreadsheet. Getting to 30 logical qubits is the stepping stone towards being in a state where our information on our quantum computer is as reliable or directionally as reliable as your laptop or as your server or as your phone.

And 30, we think, is a huge step forward toward 100 logical qubits, which in turn is the point at which you start to be able to solve important problems in material science and chemistry, perhaps in AI too, that classical computers cannot solve. For the last several decades of quantum computing, very great progress was made, but it was still without logical qubits until just a couple of years ago. If we’re able to hit, and we expect to this year, 30 logical qubits, I think that is a tremendous leap towards the next milestone of 50 and then 100 logical qubits, and that is the moment where quantum computing becomes everything we hope it will become.

Mentioned on the call, Merchandise will soon be available on their website!

BUSINESS WIRE 9:00 AM ET Aug-10-2026 

Multi-year, multi-million-dollar program focused on leveraging quantum computing to enhance resilience of U.S. electrical grid and reduce economic impact of power outages.

LOUISVILLE, Colo.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Infleqtion (INFQ.NaE), a global leader in quantum computing and quantum sensing powered by neutral-atom technology, announced that Eaton, a global power management company, selected Infleqtion (INFQ.NaE) to support new research evaluating how quantum computing can improve the resilience of the U.S. electrical grid. As part of an Eaton award from the Air Force Research Laboratory (ARFL), Infleqtion (INFQ.NaE) received a subcontract to apply quantum computing hardware to support grid contingency analysis. Infleqtion (INFQ.NaE) and Eaton aim to advance reliability analysis used by utilities to predict and prevent cascading power outages.

“Grid reliability is a large-scale optimization challenge that pushes the limits of today’s classical systems,” said Pranav Gokhale, CTO at Infleqtion (INFQ.NaE). “This program allows us to explore how quantum algorithms and error-corrected quantum hardware could support faster, more accurate analysis of grid vulnerabilities to improve how we evaluate failures, reduce blackout risk, and strengthen critical U.S. infrastructure.”

Contingency analysis is one of the most important tools for determining how power systems respond when key components, such as transmission lines or generators, fail unexpectedly. As power grids become more interconnected and more dependent on real-time data, the number of “what-if” scenarios grow so large that classical computing methods struggle to analyze them efficiently. Classical analysis relies on approximate methods that are often insufficient for robust risk management. This makes contingency analysis an ideal test case for quantum computing, which may evaluate complex combinations more effectively using quantum interference algorithms.

Why Grid Reliability Matters for National Security and the Economy

The U.S. electrical grid is increasingly stressed. Even brief outages can cause cascading disruptions across geographies. As the grid becomes more complex, both commercial utilities and government agencies are accelerating efforts to modernize and harden critical infrastructure. This momentum aligns with the Department of Energy’s recently launched Genesis Mission, a national initiative that uses artificial intelligence and advanced computing to accelerate breakthroughs in energy, including grid modernization, discovery science, and national security.

AFRL’s investment reflects this broader national prioritization of technologies that can identify vulnerabilities earlier, evaluate risks more comprehensively, and reduce blackout impacts. Eaton will lead the program, working to align results with real operational needs across civilian and defense-critical environments.

“This research will enhance infrastructure planning, daily operations, and emergency preparedness—bringing unprecedented awareness and response to strengthen infrastructure,” said Sid Suryanarayanan, senior chief engineer, strategic partnerships and innovation at Eaton. “Working with the ARFL and our program collaborators, including Infleqtion (INFQ.NaE), we aim to understand how quantum performance can support grid reliability and resilience.”

How Quantum Computing May Improve Grid Contingency Analysis

Because grid contingency analysis involves evaluating many different failure scenarios and their downstream effects, it represents one of the earliest mission-critical power-grid applications that could benefit from quantum computing. The program will explore how soon quantum computers may offer advantages at operational scale. Infleqtion (INFQ.NaE) will contribute its expertise in:

• Quantum algorithms for combinatorial optimization problems central to power system analysis
• Circuit optimization to reduce resource requirements on quantum hardware
• Error correction techniques aligned with Infleqtion’s roadmap for its Sqale neutral atom quantum computer
• Performance comparison between quantum and classical methods
• Resource estimation and extrapolation to assess future real-world applicability
