LEESBURG, Va., Nov. 13, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Quantum Computing Inc. ("QCi", "we", "our" or the "Company") (NASDAQ:QUBT), an innovative, quantum optics and nanophotonics technology company, today announced its financial results for the three and nine-months periods ended September 30, 2023.

Robert Liscouski, co-Founder, CEO & Chairman of QCi, commented, "We achieved significant progress since the acquisition of QPhoton less than 17 months ago and we have continued that momentum thus far in 2023. To date, QCi has announced five product releases, expanded manufacturing capacity and begun the buildout of our quantum chip facility, which establishes the roadmap for future product design, development and sales of a variety of lithium niobate chips in 2024, including physical unclonable function (PUF) and electro-optic modulator (EOM) chips. We have secured multiple initial testing contracts with government agencies, initiated a growing number of proof of concepts, which we believe could develop into future contracts, established our first collaborations and sales teaming agreements and just several days ago, received our first hardware sales - commencing product delivery. In addition, we have been in various stages of testing with several large organizations during 2023. At some juncture, the increasing testing hurdles with these enterprises will reach a final round with potentially large rewards. QCi is amid several such engagements, having successfully passed several testing rounds during 2023, and is cautiously optimistic waiting next steps." Mr. Liscouski added, "We continued to significantly reduce our liabilities during the third quarter, which have decreased by over 78% through September 2023, maintained tight financial controls, holding our monthly operating cash expense levels consistent month after month, while rolling out our business development, marketing and sales plans to facilitate a multi-product release effort. We are planning for a robust 2024."

Third Quarter and Nine Months 2023 Financial Highlights

P&L

Revenue:

Third quarter 2023 revenues totaled approximately $50,000 (53.0% gross margin) compared to $38,000 (33.9% gross margin) generated in the third quarter 2022 and $112,000 (54.4% gross margin) revenue for the second quarter 2023. Revenue to date has been derived from professional services provided to multiple government and commercial customers under multi-month contracts. Going forward with the commencement of delivery of our hardware products announced in mid-fourth quarter 2023, we anticipate a revenue mix of hardware and professional services.
For the first nine months of 2023, revenues totaled approximately $283,000, an increase of 111% over the prior year nine-month period. The Company has only recently entered its commercialization phase and anticipated revenues to be minimal during 2023; however, as contracted testing and a backlog of proof-of-concept projects demonstrate positive results, the Company anticipates increasing revenue for the remainder of the year and material increases in 2024.

Operating Expenses:

Third quarter 2023 operating expenses totaled $7.7 million compared to the previous year's third quarter operating expenses of $6.8 million and $3.9 million for the second quarter 2023. The $847,000 year-over-year increase in expenses is due to an overall increase in personnel as well as an increase in R&D reflecting significant new product development, offset by a decrease in intangible amortization related to the QPhoton merger. The $3.8 million increase in operating expenses compared with the second quarter of 2023 is mainly due to an adjustment in intangible asset amortization related to the QPhoton merger, which was posted in the second quarter, offset in part by an increase in technical labor expense in the third quarter.
Operating expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, totaled $19.5 million, an increase of approximately $1.2 million over the prior year nine-month period principally due to an increase in R&D of $1.7 million driven by hardware team's product development and testing of new hardware products, an $892,000 increase in compensation due to additional personnel, partially offset by a $1.2 million decrease in other selling, general & administrative expenses driven by lower legal expenses related to the QPhoton merger and adjustments to intangible amortization as well as a 35% reduction in outside consultants as responsibilities are shifted internally.
The Company's average monthly operating cash burn during the third quarter of 2023 was approximately $1.6 million, an increase of $170,000 or roughly 11.9% over the prior year's third quarter results, and a decrease of approximately $90,000, or 5.6%, compared to the average monthly operating cash burn for the second quarter 2023. The year-over-year increase in monthly cash burn is primarily due to additional quantum engineering hires and operational support staff. The level of monthly cash expenditure for operations is expected to hold relatively steady for the foreseeable future.

Net Results:

The Company reported a net loss of $8.3 million, or $(0.11) per basic share for the third quarter of 2023, compared to a net loss of $7.6 million or $(0.22) per basic share for the same period of the previous year. The $707,000 year-over-year increased net loss is primarily due to an increase in operating expenses offset by a $125,000 increase in interest income related to the Company's cash invested in a highly liquid money market fund. The Company's third quarter losses increased approximately $3.6 million compared to second quarter 2023 due largely to adjustments related to the QPhoton acquisition.
For the nine-months of 2023, the net loss totaled $21.4 million, or $(0.29) per basic share, compared to a net loss of $19.8 million, or $(0.58) per basic share in the prior year's nine-month period. The increase in net loss is largely due to the increase in operating expenses as well as an increase in interest expense and financing costs. As of September 30, 2023, the Company's tax loss carryforwards was approximately $13.1 million.

Balance Sheet

Assets:

Total assets held consistent year-to-date at $89.3 million. As of September 30, 2023, cash and cash equivalents increased $2.1 million from year-end 2022 to $7.4 million, which excludes capital allocated to the note receivable and associated interest of approximately $543,000 invested to secure the Company's right of first refusal to potentially acquire millionways, Inc. ("millionways"). Since the beginning of 2023, the Company repaid debt and accrued interest of approximately $4.8 million and made $2.0 million in equipment deposits and expenses related to the new Arizona chip foundry. The net increase in cash and cash equivalents reflects $23.5 million (average share price $1.53) in capital secured from the Company's At the Market (ATM) offering year-to-date.

Liabilities:

Recyber, based in London and Geneva, is a privately held cybersecurity company that combines automation, artificial intelligence, and advanced technology to reduce a business' cybersecurity risk by analyzing and modifying organizational and human behavior patterns and processes. Recyber, through its partnership with QCi, will become one of the first companies in Europe to offer quantum authentication and encryption solutions as part of its portfolio of cybersecurity technology offerings. QCi has developed and created a unique "Zero-Knowledge Proof Quantum Communication Protocol" that addresses authentication vulnerability security.
September 2023, The Company's federal subsidiary, Qi Solutions (QIS), signed a five-year Overarching Cooperative Research and Development Agreement (OCRADA) with U.S. Special Operations Command (USSOCOM) to develop quantum technology applications in support of USSOCOM programs. USSOCOM is the premier entity of the U.S. Department of Defense that deploys the world's latest technology to conduct global special operations and activities as part of the Joint Force, in concert with the U.S. government interagency, allies, and partners. QIS will work with USSOCOM's Science & Technology Directorate on the development of advanced quantum solutions for use by Special Operations Forces in their unique mission roles.

Commercial Proof of Concepts, Beta Tests and System Users Update:

QCi is offering Cloud access to its Dirac-1 and Dirac-2 Entropy Quantum Computers to parties who are working on large quadratic binary and integer optimization problems and use cases for critical applications. This "concierge" program enables end users to develop operational uses in cooperation with a QCi Application Scientist before converting to a subscription. Since onboarding our first end user in the second quarter 2023, six additional have been onboarded in the 3rd and 4th quarters, with more expected before the end of 2023.
The Company expanded its 2021 CRADA with Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL) to include the use of Dirac-1 Entropy Quantum Computer to test a suite of use cases. This expansion permits LANL to evaluate use cases at a problem size and complexity that has previously only been demonstrable using classical computers.
One of the largest U.S. insurance carriers took part in experiments to determine whether QCi's photonic quantum computing could detect and/or predict variations in its systems that could compromise its network, impairing its customer service and operational efficiency. That same carrier is now engaged in testing a use case related to optimizing advertising expenses.
QCi's Dirac-1 system successfully identified optimal time, speed and route through varying obstructions for drone aircraft for Virginia Innovation Partnership Corporation. QCi is currently working to expand this program toward a field demonstration using QCi's Dirac-1 system with Unmanned Aerial Vehicles.
The Company is continuously engaged in a number of beta test use cases to demonstrate the effectiveness of its computing capabilities, including:
- Inventory purchase optimization in supply chain
- Machine learning models to classify substances using spectroscopy data
- Intrusion detection within security networks, vehicle routing and payload optimization

Manufacturing Expansion and Chip Foundry Developments:

The Company selected ASU Research Park in Tempe, Arizona as the location for its new quantum photonic chips foundry to produce Thin Film Lithium Niobate chips. QCi's goal is to accelerate its research and development in nanophotonics and to fabricate optical chips for use in its high-performance computing, machine learning, cyber security, sensing, and imaging products. Lithium niobate nanophotonic circuits (quantum chips) deliver heightened scalability and performance advantages such as speed, accuracy, and ultra low electric power consumption. Expansion into Arizona represents a strategic initiative for the Company due to the State's leadership in the field of optics, its early recognition of the importance of advanced photonic research, and the presence of numerous State and U.S. Government entities interested in exploring mission-ready quantum computing and related technologies The location QCi chose for its new facility is on five acres within the extensive 320-acre research park hosted by ASU, a global leader in academic microelectronics research. To date, QCi has placed deposits for the procurement of critical long-lead equipment and paid other related expenses of approximately $2 million. The Company begins the buildout of the facility during fourth quarter 2023, a portion of which will be funded by the landlord. In addition, the Company qualifies for multiple funding initiatives through state and federal grants and ultra low interest rate loans, including the $113.2 billion CHIPS and Science Act of 2022. QCi anticipates that its chip manufacturing will commence first half of 2024, initially with singly purposed chips, followed by mass-producing quantum photonics chips with complex nanophotonic circuits in late 2024/early 2025. In addition to use in QCi's products, the Company is assessing plans to sell chips via distributors for general sale to the market as well. The PUF and EOM chips market opportunity is significant, and it is the company's expectation that it will generate sales of both chips in 2024.

Subsequent Operational Developments and Outlook

Contract and Purchase Order Announcements:

On October 31, 2023, the Company announced its first hardware sale by securing multiple orders for its state-of-the-art Reservoir Computer and Quantum Random Number Generator to its partners Assured Cyber Protection Ltd and AI firm millionways to enhance their AI capabilities. These sales kick off the Company's commercial delivery of its computing technologies. The QCi Reservoir Computer is a first-to-market portable device with technology inspired by the power of quantum mechanics. The device can perform complex computational tasks with unprecedented speed and efficiency (consuming 80% to 95% less energy than traditional computers) to facilitate data analysis, machine learning and artificial intelligence. Its minimal size, weight, power, and cost factors make it particularly suitable for use as an edge computing tool. Additionally, the QCi Quantum Random Number Generator (QRNG) enables true randomness for applications in cryptography, secure communications, and data encryption. By integrating QCi's Reservoir Computer and QRNG into security algorithms, Assured Cyber Protection Ltd aims to enhance its ability to detect and respond to cyberattacks in real-time. The addition of QCi's Reservoir Computer to millionways' assessment process is expected to significantly boost machine learning efficiency (particularly in assessing audio files), dramatically reduce the power consumption, and materially accelerate the "training" of machine learning models.

Product Demonstration and Validation:

On October 3, 2023, the Company's federal subsidiary, Qi Solutions, announced that it demonstrated unprecedented ability to detect landmines up to 2.5 feet below dense underground surface. The successful validation of Quantum Photonic Detection and Ranging (QpDAR) VX3, conducted over several days in September in a field environment, mimicking real-world conditions – showed the ability of the VX3 sensor to harness Quantum Single Photon Detection to detect landmines and unexploded ordnances from surface level to depths up to 30-inches. Landmines are a pervasive legacy of war that kill thousands of innocent civilians every year. According to United Nations News, there are currently approximately 70 countries and territories contaminated by roughly 110 million landmines. In many of the most affected areas of the world, where agriculture is the mainstay of the economy, landmines were planted in fields, forests, around wells, water sources and hydroelectric installations, making the farmland unusable or usable only at great risk. NATO, Department of State humanitarian programs, and multiple countries in Europe and Southeast Asia have commenced engagements to bring this technology to the field immediately.

Guidance:

To date, the Company has announced five products, secured initial testing contracts with Government agencies, engaged in a growing number of proof of concepts, established collaborations and sales teaming agreements and, just last week, received its first hardware sales with product delivery scheduled in the fourth quarter. The Company anticipates a gradual revenue increase for the remainder of the year, accelerating into heightened growth starting in early 2024.
