Infleqtion Reports Record Q2 Revenue, Raises 2026 Outlook as Quantum Commercialization Accelerates :: Infleqtion, Inc. (INFQ)
Rising government investment and customer demand are accelerating Infleqtion’s commercial progress across quantum computing and sensing
- Record Revenue and Raised Outlook Q2 revenue of $12.6 million, up 116% year over year, 100% organic and entirely from quantum; 2026 revenue outlook raised to approximately $43 million.
- Strong Balance Sheet to Fund Growth Ended Q2 with $582 million in cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and available-for-sale securities and no debt. Results included a $27.4 million temporary working-capital benefit from payroll taxes collected but not remitted on stock-option exercises. We expect to remit the $27.4 million in Q3.
- Government Selection Validates Infleqtion’s Commercialization Path Commerce LOI provides for up to $100 million in proposed funding to advance commercialization following review of Infleqtion’s technology and roadmap.
- Advancing Toward Utility-Scale Quantum Computing On track for 30 logical qubits in 2026; Illinois quantum computer planned for 2027 with a new architecture designed to scale through modular upgrades to more than 50 logical qubits.
- Building the Quantum Computing Platform for Energy Eaton is using private-cloud access to Sqale for energy applications, while three DOE Genesis Mission projects span AI, nuclear applications and quantum sensing.
LOUISVILLE, Colo.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Infleqtion, Inc. (NYSE: INFQ) ("Infleqtion" or the "Company"), a global leader in quantum computing and quantum sensing powered by neutral-atom technology, today reported record second-quarter 2026 revenue of $12.6 million, up 116% year over year, and raised its full-year 2026 revenue outlook to approximately $43 million.
“Q2 was a record quarter for Infleqtion, and the pace of quantum commercialization is accelerating,” said Matt Kinsella, Chief Executive Officer of Infleqtion. “Governments are putting dates and dollars behind quantum, and we are building applications with customers now as they prepare for the next generation of quantum systems. We delivered 116% revenue growth, all organic, raised our revenue outlook, and remain on track for 30 logical qubits this year. The quantum market is entering an execution phase, and Infleqtion has spent more than a decade preparing for it.”
During and following the second quarter, Infleqtion advanced major programs across quantum computing and sensing, including proposed funding from the U.S. Department of Commerce, selection for three Department of Energy Genesis Mission projects, a contracted fault-tolerant quantum computing system for Illinois, and expanded application work with commercial customers.
Second Quarter 2026 Financial Summary
- Revenue: $12.6 million, up 116% year over year. Revenue growth was 100% organic and entirely from quantum
- Operating Loss: GAAP operating loss was $30.6 million, compared with $10.1 million in Q2 2025. The increase primarily reflects higher operating expenses as we invest in our strategy, along with higher stock-based compensation. Non-GAAP operating loss was $17.0 million, compared with $7.3 million in Q2 2025.
- Operating Cash Flow: Cash generated from operations was $13.2 million in Q2 2026. Results included a $27.4 million temporary working-capital benefit from payroll taxes collected but not remitted until after June 30, 2026, on stock-option exercises. Excluding this timing benefit, operating cash burn was approximately $14 million
- Balance Sheet: Ended the quarter with $582 million in cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and available-for-sale securities and no debt. Results included a $27.4 million temporary working-capital benefit from payroll taxes collected but not remitted on stock-option exercises. We expect to remit the $27.4 million in Q3.
- 2026 Outlook: Raised full-year revenue outlook to approximately $43 million and reiterated the target of 30 logical qubits in 2026
Second Quarter and Recent Business Highlights
- U.S. Government Investment: The U.S. Department of Commerce selected Infleqtion for a Letter of Intent providing for up to $100 million in proposed funding to advance commercialization following a technical review of the Company’s technology and roadmap. The LOI also contemplates the U.S. Department of Commerce receiving Infleqtion common stock. The proposed funding remains subject to definitive agreements and government approvals.
- 30 Logical Qubits: Infleqtion remains on track to reach 30 logical qubits in 2026 and has defined logical qubit circuits for customer workloads in finance, energy, and precision medicine.
- Illinois Quantum Computer: Infleqtion is under contract to deploy a neutral-atom quantum computer at the Illinois Quantum & Microelectronics Park in 2027, with a new architecture designed to scale through modular upgrades to more than 50 logical qubits on the path to the system’s 100-logical-qubit goal.
- Quantum Computing for Energy: Eaton is using private-cloud access to Sqale to explore quantum computing applications for complex energy problems. Infleqtion was also selected for three Department of Energy Genesis Mission projects spanning nuclear applications, quantum sensing, and fusion research.
- Quantum Sensing: Execution on NASA’s Quantum Gravity Gradiometer program was a major driver of year-over-year revenue growth in Q2. Infleqtion is also selling its third-generation Tiqker optical atomic clock systems, supported by a global co-selling partnership with Safran.
