SEALSQ Corp (NASDAQ: LAES) and WISeSat.Space have announced their participation in the 40th Annual Space Symposium in Colorado Springs, where they will showcase their latest post-quantum satellite technology. The companies will demonstrate the WISeSat constellation, designed to provide secure space-based connectivity for IoT devices with protection against both classical and quantum computing threats.

The next satellite in the constellation is scheduled to launch via SpaceX in June 2025. The initiative aims to establish a sovereign, tamper-resistant, and globally accessible security layer through Post-quantum cryptography (PQC) deployment from low-Earth orbit satellites. This technology is particularly valuable in regions with terrestrial infrastructure or those exposed to geopolitical risks.

SEALSQ Corp (NASDAQ: LAES) announced its operations remain unaffected by the Trump administration's new tariffs due to semiconductor exemptions under the current trade policy. The 'Fair and Reciprocal Plan' introduced on April 2, 2025, sets varying tariff rates (10% general, 20% China, 32% Taiwan) but excludes semiconductors.

The company's position is strengthened by its post-quantum semiconductor technology that complies with NIST standards finalized in August 2024. This aligns with Executive Order 14119 from January 15, 2025, mandating post-quantum cryptography for federal systems by 2035.

SEALSQ plans to expand its U.S. presence by opening an Outsourced Semiconductor Personalization & Test center through strategic partnerships and alignment with the CHIPS Act, focusing on programming chips with unique cryptographic keys.

SEALSQ Corp (NASDAQ: LAES) announced a strategic collaboration with IC'ALPS to develop post-quantum secure ASICs for automotive functional safety. This partnership follows SEALSQ's February 2025 announcement of exclusive negotiations to acquire 100% of IC'ALPS, pending due diligence and regulatory approvals.

The collaboration combines SEALSQ's post-quantum secure technology with IC'ALPS' expertise in automotive ASIC design, particularly for systems requiring high Automotive Safety Integrity Levels (ASILs). The partnership aims to address the growing importance of electronics in modern vehicles, where semiconductor components now represent over 40% of a vehicle's cost, up from 18% in the early 2000s.

The joint venture will focus on developing ASICs that integrate multiple functions into single chips, featuring functional safety compliance, native post-quantum cryptography, enhanced EMI resistance, and real-time responsiveness for autonomous driving systems.

SEALSQ Corp (NASDAQ: LAES) has announced the completion of testing and certification initiation for its QS7001 Post-Quantum Secure Chip, scheduled for release in Q4 2025. The chip is designed to protect blockchain infrastructures and cryptocurrency wallets from quantum computing threats.

The QS7001 Chip incorporates NIST-recommended CRYSTALS-Kyber and CRYSTALS-Dilithium quantum-resistant cryptographic algorithms. Key features include:

• Quantum-resistant cryptography for securing digital wallets and transactions
• Tamper-resistant hardware enclave for private key protection
• Blockchain protection against signature forgery and smart contract manipulation
• Seamless integration capabilities with hardware wallets and crypto exchanges

SEALSQ is collaborating with Hedera and WeCan, integrating the QS7001 Chip into their blockchain ecosystems to enhance transaction authentication and network-level security with post-quantum safeguards.

SEALSQ Corp (NASDAQ: LAES) has signed a strategic agreement to acquire a 30% equity stake in WeCanGroup SA. The partnership focuses on accelerating blockchain-based security solutions within the Web 3.0 ecosystem, particularly in post-quantum cryptography, IoT security, and financial sector resilience.

The collaboration will integrate WeCanGroup's blockchain-based financial compliance solutions with SEALSQ's post-quantum encryption to enhance:

• Know Your Customer (KYC), Know Your Business (KYB), and Know Your Object (KYO) solutions
• Digital identity verification and fraud risk reduction in banking and DeFi
• IoT device security through quantum-safe authentication and encrypted communications
• Supply chain security via blockchain-backed authentication

The partnership aims to strengthen the WeCan Comply platform with quantum-resistant digital signatures and implement decentralized identity management and secure tokenization of financial assets in the Web 3.0 ecosystem.

SEALSQ (NASDAQ: LAES) reported its FY 2024 financial results, showing revenue of $11 million, down from $30 million in 2023, with a net loss of $21 million. The company maintains a strong cash position of $85 million with no bank debt or convertible loans.

The revenue decline reflects the company's transition from traditional semiconductors to next-generation Quantum Resistant chips. SEALSQ has confirmed bookings of $6.8 million as of March 20, 2025, and projects a $93 million contract pipeline for 2026-2028.

Key developments include:

• Increased R&D investment to $7.2 million for 2025, up from $5 million in 2024
• Allocated $20 million for strategic investments in quantum computing startups
• Plans to launch new post-quantum semiconductors in Q4 2025
• Advanced negotiations to acquire IC'ALPS, a French ASIC design company

SEALSQ Corp (NASDAQ: LAES) announced its third edition of Quantum Tech Days, scheduled for May 12-13, 2025, at Hotel La Fregate, France. Following successful events in Davos and NYC, this two-day conference will feature industry experts, including speakers from Google.
