IonQ Stock Jumps as SkyWater Vote Puts $1.8 Billion Quantum Deal on the Clock
• IonQ shares jumped over 15% at Monday’s close, following SkyWater shareholders’ approval of the merger deal.

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.
