IonQ reports Q1 EPS (34c), consensus (52c)

Reports Q1 revenue $64.7M, consensus $49.7M. “I am pleased to share that IonQ (IONQ) has begun 2026 with strong momentum, delivering our fourth consecutive quarter of record-breaking results and the biggest quarter in our company’s history – thus far. With $64.7 million in revenue, we have once again significantly outperformed our guidance range, exceeding the midpoint by 30%,” said Niccolo de Masi, Chairman and CEO. “As a result, we are raising our revenue expectations for the full year to $270 million at the high end, based upon the strong and growing demand for our leading quantum computers, as well as the commercial impact of our entire quantum platform. Securing our first 256-qubit system sale and receiving our first ion trap chip samples back from the fab this quarter marks a pivotal shift toward commercial scale. We are now moving from component-level testing to integrated, system-level testing of the full 256-qubit quantum computer. These milestones, combined with the first-of-its-kind publication of our complete architectural blueprint for fault-tolerant quantum computing, prove that IonQ has the hardware and the roadmap to continually lead the quantum revolution. IonQ is poised to be the first company in history to fully demonstrate fault-tolerance at scale, and is already benefitting from leadership in real-world application time-to-solution.”
