Quantum Computing Q1 Details       

Quantum Computing reported quarterly losses of two cents per share, which beat the Street estimate for losses of five cents, according to Benzinga Pro data.  

Quarterly revenue came in at $3.69 million, which blew past the analyst consensus estimate of $3.28 million by 12.7% and was up from $39,000 in the same period last year.

QCi said the year-over-year revenue increase was driven primarily by the acquisition of LSI in February 2026, and, to a lesser extent, NuCrypt in March 2026.
