Quantum Computing (QUBT) announced Dirac-3S, its next-generation quantum optimization machine, with the first customer shipment expected in November 2026.
The system demonstrated configurations supporting up to 9,980 variables with one Expansion Module, compared with the current system's 1,000-variable capacity. Its modular design accommodates additional Expansion Modules. QCi said its benchmark testing found optimal solutions across all tested synthetic problems with known global optima ranging from 2,000 to 9,980 variables. The company also advanced its hardware architecture, manufacturing processes and supply chain to support increased production volumes and broader commercial deployment.
Quantum Computing Inc. (QUBT) will debut an integrated quantum security platform combining encryption and authentication at the ECOC Exhibition 2026 in Málaga, Spain, from September 21–23.
At Booth #1436, the company plans live demonstrations of quantum-secure communication solutions using time-frequency and polarization-based approaches, integrating high-dimensional quantum key distribution (QKD), hardware-based Quantum Identity Authentication (QIA), direct entanglement verification and key management in a telecom-compatible, room-temperature architecture. QIA is based on QCi’s patented zero-knowledge proof technology, protected in the United States and more than 40 other countries and recognized with the 44th Edison Patent Award. QCi will also showcase flexible quantum instrumentation for measurement and metrology and advanced photonics components, and will present on quantum-authenticated communications in ECOC’s Product Focus Theatre.
Quantum Computing Inc. (QUBT) signed a three-year Framework Agreement with Hamad Bin Khalifa University (HBKU) in Qatar to collaborate on quantum computing, quantum sensing, and quantum communications.
The partnership focuses on joint academic research, executive education, industry-focused projects, applications development, and co-marketing to accelerate quantum technology adoption in Qatar and internationally. QCi will provide HBKU with on‑cloud access to its Dirac‑3 entropy‑based quantum optimization system and install a Dirac‑3 platform in Qatar, giving students, researchers, and industry partners hands‑on access to quantum technologies and supporting workforce development and regional quantum leadership.
Quantum Computing Inc. (Nasdaq: QUBT) announced that CEO Dr. Yuping Huang and CFO Chris Roberts will attend the Lake Street Capital Markets 10th Annual Best Ideas Growth (Big10) Conference on September 10 at the Metropolitan Club in New York City, participating in one-on-one investor meetings.
Quantum Computing (Nasdaq: QUBT) reported Q2 2026 revenue of $5.6 million, up sharply from $61 thousand a year ago and from $3.7 million in Q1, driven mainly by photonics product sales across government, educational and commercial customers.
Operating expenses rose to $21.8 million (vs. $10.2 million) on higher headcount and $7.3 million of acquisition costs. Net loss narrowed to $11.8 million or $(0.05) per share from $36.5 million or $(0.26), helped by higher revenue, interest income of $13.0 million, and a smaller warrant-derivative loss.
