IBM is effectively funding its $10 billion, five‑year quantum push from its mainframe and software cash flows. IonQ is the only pure‑play quantum computing company with meaningful revenue, but it's still burning a lot of cash and issuing a lot of new shares.

Collaboration combines INmune Bio's clinical research with QCi's  Dirac-3S quantum optimization machine to identify potential new treatment indications and biomarkers for XPro Initial engagement marks QCi's first commercial customer in pharmaceutical and biotechnology markets, expanding the application of quantum computing to drug development BOCA RATON, Fla. and HOBOKEN, N.J.

Quantinuum, backed by Honeywell's continued majority-voting stake, is still working through post-IPO price discovery following its June Nasdaq debut. IBM's quantum bet is funded by its much larger, profitable core business, giving it a longer runway than smaller pure-play competitors.

Pure plays IonQ, Rigetti, and D-Wave are not profitable, but have enough cash to continue pursuing their quantum computing goals for quite some time. Quantum computing stocks are expensive and risky, unless you want to own one like IBM -- a mature, slow-growth tech company with a quantum computing arm.

HOBOKEN, N.J., Oct. 6, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Quantum Computing Inc. ("QCi" or the "Company") (Nasdaq: QUBT), a vertically integrated quantum systems company pioneering photonics and semiconductor manufacturing, today announced that Dr. Yuping Huang, Chief Executive Officer and Chris Roberts, Chief Financial Officer, will participate in the Maxim Growth Summit 2026 on October 13 at the Hard Rock Hotel in New York City.

QCi is starting to generate revenue, but it's still losing money and has a long way to go to prove itself. The company is trying to build a larger photonics and quantum hardware business, ranging from chip manufacturing to AI and security products.

Quantum computing stocks could get a boost if Congress finally passes key legislation. A Jefferies analyst says that could happen soon.

QUBT pairs surging revenues, photonics expansion and a $42.5M backlog with analyst targets implying more upside than Rigetti, though execution risks remain.
