D-Wave’s Bookings Spike Keeps QBTS in Play, but the Revenue Math Still Has to Catch Up

D-Wave’s Bookings Spike Keeps QBTS in Play, but the Revenue Math Still Has to Catch Up

D-Wave Quantum dropped its key number for investors ahead of Tuesday’s open: bookings surged to $33.4 million in the first quarter, a staggering 1,994% jump from the same period last year. That leap got a major lift from Florida Atlantic University’s $20 million order for a system, plus a $10 million, two-year quantum computing-as-a-service contract with a Fortune 100 client. Bookings represent customer orders likely to convert into future revenue—they’re not revenue recognized yet. That explains why the stock jumped ahead of the report. QBTS finished Monday at $24.03, gaining 6.47% after quantum stocks bounced hard. Options players were set for an 18.83% swing on earnings, either way. Investors weren’t just paying for D-Wave’s latest sales figures; they were betting that those orders might finally translate into more consistent revenue streams.

Cisco Systems’ Quantum Switch Push Puts Networking Giant in Race for the Next Internet

Cisco Systems’ Quantum Switch Push Puts Networking Giant in Race for the Next Internet

Cisco Systems, Inc. unveiled a switching chip it claims links multiple kinds of quantum computers—staking out a spot in quantum tech while steering clear of making the machines themselves. The San Jose network gear company introduced its prototype, dubbed the Cisco Universal Quantum Switch, saying it’s able to route quantum data via existing telecom fiber and does it all at room temperature. Timing is key here. Quantum computing is still largely confined to research, yet big tech players are already working to shape the standards for how these machines will connect, secure data, and expand. Cisco, echoing the pitch that fueled its legacy business, argues that the network is just as critical as the machines themselves.

  • Cramer says use Wednesday's market shakeup to buy tech leaders like Meta and AMD
    July 1, 2026, 7:10 PM EDT. Jim Cramer on CNBC told investors to take advantage of Wednesday's rotation in the market as a window to pick up discounted names such as Meta, Micron and AMD. He thinks the pullback from AI infrastructure stocks will not last and suggests adding chip and data center plays, pointing to strong demand. Meta rallied, getting a boost from its plans to move into cloud computing, which Cramer said could widen revenue beyond just ads. His Charitable Trust owns Meta and Corning, but he said it sold off Nike after a weak quarter. Cramer also warned some software and retail stocks bouncing may fade. He said to use these moves to swap underperformers at higher prices and buy into leaders trading down during this early-in-the-quarter shift.
