Notably, 69 of these are commercial users, including 25 firms from the Forbes Global 2000 list. This diverse customer portfolio signals growing enterprise interest in quantum computing solutions across multiple industries.
The results, announced during a conference call led by CEO Dr. Alan Baratz and CFO John Markovich, reflect D-Wave's ongoing efforts to commercialize quantum computing technology. The company's ability to generate significant revenue through quantum system sales represents a critical inflection point for the nascent quantum computing sector.
By delivering robust financial performance and expanding its commercial user base, D-Wave is positioning itself as a key player in transforming computational capabilities across research, optimization, and artificial intelligence domains.
