Roadmap Target

#AQ 64 achieved Sept 2025 (Tempo); 100–256+ physical and 12 logical qubits in 2026; 10,000 physical / 800 logical qubits in 2027; 20,000 / 1,600 in 2028; 200,000 / 8,000 in 2029; 2 million / 80,000 by 2030

Current available system: Forte Enterprise (36 physical qubits, #AQ 36, 99.6% 2Q fidelity). Tempo has demonstrated a 64-qubit development register and #AQ 64, while its product page continues to describe 100 physical qubits and 99.9% fidelity as targets. Superion 256, IonQ's sixth-generation platform, reached first fabricated integrated 256-qubit QPUs and trapped ions in prototype systems by September 2026; orders are open, the first system was pre-sold in Q1 2026, and customer deliveries are scheduled for 2027. R&D prototype achieved 99.9923% 2Q gate fidelity in Oct 2025 using Electronic Qubit Control (EQC). Coherence times: 10–100 seconds.

Financial Story

FY 2025

Revenue

$130.02M

▲ 201.9% YoY

Net Income

-$510.38M

Cash

$1.03B

IonQ revenue surges 202% to $130M in FY2025, but net loss widens to $510M amid acquisition spree

·Completed four acquisitions in 2025 (id Quantique, Capella Space, Oxford Ionics, Vector Atomic), adding satellite imaging, quantum networking, and sensing capabilities; acquisitions drove ~39% of FY2025 revenue.
·Raised ~$3.36B in financing activities (common stock and warrant issuances), ending the year with $3.34B in cash and investments vs $363.8M prior year.
·Signed definitive agreement on Jan 25, 2026 to acquire SkyWater Technology for ~$1.8B ($1.0B cash required), pending shareholder and regulatory approval.

IonQ expects to continue incurring significant losses for the foreseeable future; management believes current cash and investments are sufficient for the next 12 months including the ~$1.0B SkyWater cash requirement.

FY 2024

Revenue

$43.07M

▲ 95.4% YoY

Net Income

-$331.65M

Cash

$54.39M

IonQ doubles revenue to $43M but net loss explodes to $332M on warrant charges and R&D spend

·Revenue nearly doubled to $43.1M driven by specialized quantum hardware contracts and new service agreements.
·Accumulated deficit reached $683.7M; $117M non-cash warrant mark-to-market loss was a major net loss driver.
·Company holds $363.8M in cash and investments, believes sufficient for 12+ months of operations.

Management expects significant losses and higher operating expenses to continue as the company pursues higher algorithmic qubit counts and fidelity milestones needed for quantum advantage. No profitability timeline provided.

FY 2023

Revenue

$22.04M

▲ 98.6% YoY

Net Income

-$157.77M

Cash

$35.66M

IonQ doubles revenue to $22M but net loss balloons to $158M on R&D spending surge

·Revenue nearly doubled to $22M driven by specialized quantum hardware contracts and new QCaaS/consulting deals.
·Liquidity remains strong at $455.9M in cash and investments, sufficient for 12+ months of operations.
·Warrant liabilities swung to a $19.2M loss (vs $30.1M gain in 2022) as public warrant fair value rose, adding non-cash drag to net loss.

Management expects continued significant losses and higher operating expenses as it pursues technical milestones for increased qubit count and fidelity. No profitability timeline provided. Capital expenditures in 2024 expected to focus on facilities.

FY 2022

Revenue

$11.10M

Net Income

-$48.50M

IonQ grows revenue 67% YoY but burns cash heavily as quantum commercialization ramps

·Revenue grew approximately 67% YoY to ~$11.1M driven by QCaaS offerings across AWS, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud.
·Net loss improved significantly to $48.5M in FY2022 from $106.2M in FY2021, primarily due to reduced warrant-related charges.
·Acquired Entangled Networks Limited (Dec 2022) to advance photonic interconnect technology for modular quantum scaling.

IonQ expects to continue incurring significant losses as it prioritizes R&D milestones toward higher qubit counts and fidelity needed for quantum advantage. No profitability timeline provided.

FY 2021

Net Income

-$106.20M

IonQ goes public via SPAC but burns $106M in 2021 as quantum revenue stays nascent

·Completed SPAC merger with dMY Technology Group III in 2021, becoming publicly listed on NYSE under ticker IONQ.
·QCaaS delivered via AWS Braket, Microsoft Azure Quantum, and Google Cloud Marketplace; early-stage commercial revenues remain small.
·Company holds exclusive IP licenses from University of Maryland and Duke University underpinning its trapped-ion quantum computing approach.

Management expects continued significant losses as it prioritizes R&D to increase stable qubit counts and gate fidelity. Commercialization depends on achieving quantum advantage milestones over the next several years. No specific revenue guidance provided.

FY 2020

Revenue

$0.00

Net Income

-$629.00K

Cash

$1.60M

dMY Tech III SPAC raises $300M in IPO, targets IonQ merger with $350M PIPE

·Completed $300M IPO on Nov 17, 2020 at $10/unit (30M units); $300M placed in trust invested in U.S. gov't securities.
·Signed merger agreement with IonQ (quantum computing) on Mar 7, 2021, with $350M PIPE from institutional investors.
·No revenue generated; net loss of ~$629K driven by $602K G&A and $58K franchise taxes, partially offset by $31K trust income.

Pending completion of IonQ merger; $350M PIPE committed. If no deal closes by Nov 2022, trust assets returned to shareholders and SPAC liquidates.

Earnings
On May 25, 2021, dMY Technology Group, Inc. III received a notice from the NYSE that it was not in compliance with continued listing requirements after failing to file its Q1 2021 Form 10-Q by the May 24, 2021 deadline. The delay stemmed from the company's need to assess the impact of the SEC's April 12, 2021 guidance on SPAC warrant accounting on its financial statements. The NYSE gave the company until November 24, 2021 to regain compliance by filing the overdue quarterly report.↗
2021-05-18
Restatement
dMY Technology Group, Inc. III (the SPAC that later merged with IonQ) filed this 8-K on May 18, 2021, disclosing that its previously issued financial statements for the periods ending September 30, 2020, November 17, 2020, and December 31, 2020 can no longer be relied upon and must be restated. The restatement was triggered by a April 12, 2021 SEC Staff statement on SPAC warrant accounting, which led the company's Audit Committee and management to conclude that its warrants should be reclassified from equity to derivative liabilities under ASC 815-40. The reclassification does not affect previously reported operating expenses, cash flows, or cash balances.↗
