The balance of points shown with the takes weighs what the document actually discloses, so the two can disagree, for example when a trial that missed its main goal is described in upbeat language.

Quanome Receives US$13.5 Million Customer Service Prepayment
for Dedicated AI Inference Services; First Major Financial Milestone Under New AI Computing Business
First Cash Milestone Payment Under 60-Month Enterprise Order Supports Procurement
and Build-Out of Dedicated AI Computing Capacity
NEW YORK, NY, Oct. 29, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Quanome Technologies, Inc. (Nasdaq: QNME) (“Quanome” or the “Company”) today announced that XDT Infrastructure I, LLC (“XDT”), an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Quanome, has received its first milestone payment in the amount of US$13.5 million from an enterprise customer. The payment is the first customer payment toward the prepayment disclosed in Quanome’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on October 5, 2026.
Under the customer agreement, the prepayment is payable in tranches tied to procurement milestones for the servers underlying the customer’s dedicated capacity. XDT intends to apply the prepayment substantially toward the procurement of the servers and the related build-out of the dedicated capacity.
“Receipt of this first customer payment is an important commercial milestone for Quanome and our subsidiary team at XDT,” said Yang Li, CEO of Quanome Technologies. “In a matter of weeks, we have progressed from committing to our initial infrastructure, securing a long-term enterprise order, and receiving customer funding that supports the build-out of dedicated capacity. Our focus now is delivery, deploying the infrastructure, satisfying the remaining conditions and preparing to begin service for our new customer.”
Quanome focuses on opportunities across four strategic pillars: Quantum and AI Systems; Quantum Life Sciences – Molecular Discovery; Advanced Nuclear; and Quantum-Safe Cybersecurity. XDT is the Company’s commercial AI infrastructure initiative within the Quantum and AI Systems pillar. Through XDT, Quanome is developing a managed AI computing business that gives enterprise customers access to dedicated computing capacity to run trained AI models and process new information and generate outputs, all without having to build and operate the underlying infrastructure themselves.
Quanome’s receipt of the US$13.5 million payment marks the next step in XDT’s commercial development. Quanome first announced an approximately US$18.8 million purchase agreement for 32 GPU server units in September 2026. It subsequently entered into a second purchase agreement for an additional 32 GPU server units at an aggregate price of approximately US$18.8 million and announced XDT’s first enterprise customer agreement.
XDT’s initial order with the customer has a 60-month commitment term commencing on the service-ready date and a total commitment value exceeding US$100 million, payable as a fixed monthly commitment fee. The monthly commitment is not reduced for usage below committed levels. Service commencement remains subject to the applicable service-start conditions.
The GPU server units under both purchase agreements are expected to be delivered to a designated data center in the United States, subject to the applicable commercial, supply-chain and operational conditions.
