January 19, 2026, 5:06 PM EST. Quantum computing moves closer to early commercial use, boosting companies that enable this tech. Firms such as Advanced Micro Devices (AMD), Broadcom (AVGO), and Teradyne (TER) stand to benefit. According to Global Growth Insights, the post-quantum cryptography segment, critical for securing quantum-era data, could grow from around $810 million in 2025 to $1.1 billion in 2026. McKinsey notes that overall quantum-related revenues may surpass $1 billion by 2025, with much of the income flowing to enablers in semiconductors and cybersecurity rather than pure hardware. This positions these firms for clearer revenue and earnings growth in 2026, with manageable risks and potential for longer-term expansion as quantum tech adoption intensifies.
