VisionWave Holdings ( (VWAV) ) has shared an announcement.
On January 5, 2026, VisionWave Holdings completed the acquisition of all intellectual property associated with QuantumSpeed, a pre-commercial computational acceleration engine currently in the proof-of-concept and system architecture phase, from Costa Rica–based Adrian Holdings S.R.L. VisionWave paid 3 million shares of common stock at closing and issued a $10 million promissory note, with an additional 7 million contingent shares subject to future shareholder approval under Nasdaq rules; if that approval is not obtained within nine months, the seller will receive a 60% equity stake in QuantumSpeed Inc., the subsidiary holding the IP, while retaining the initial shares and the note. The QuantumSpeed IP, which includes patents, software, and trade secrets, was independently valued at about $99.6 million as of December 31, 2025, and the transaction received a fairness opinion and unanimous approval from VisionWave’s board, underscoring management’s belief that the technology could eventually address decision latency in defense, sensing, autonomous systems, and AI. However, the company stressed that QuantumSpeed remains an early-stage, high-risk asset with no assurance of successful commercialization or performance, and any development program—envisioned at up to $10 million of U.S.-based spending over the next 6–12 months—will focus on validating and hardening the architecture rather than immediate market deployment, leaving investors exposed to significant execution, funding, and valuation risks.
