IonQ Raises 2023 Bookings Expectations to $50M at Midpoint, Anticipates Doubling Bookings from Prior Year

Increases booking expectations to new range of $45 million to $55 million from previous range of $38 million to $42 million

IonQ (NYSE: IONQ), a leader in the quantum computing industry, today announced that the Company is increasing its 2023 bookings expectations by twenty five percent (25%) to a range of $45 million to $55 million. At the midpoint, IonQ is now expecting more than 100% growth in bookings compared to last year’s record bookings performance of $24.5 million.

IonQ’s increased bookings expectation comes on the heels of a recent 25.0 million CHF ($28.0 million USD) commercial transaction that will see IonQ install two future quantum systems in Europe, including an anticipated future #AQ1 64 system. Such a quantum computer would be capable of considering more than 18 quintillion different possibilities simultaneously, and is anticipated to demonstrate quantum advantage over the very best supercomputers across a variety of applications. This transaction will also allow IonQ to service its European customers out of a joint data center, with IonQ and its partner each managing 50% of the IonQ systems.

“IonQ continues to demonstrate strong business momentum, and our ability to double bookings year-over-year in FY23 will be yet another important milestone,” said Thomas Kramer, Chief Financial Officer of IonQ. “We are thrilled to further our progress towards commercialization through our continued expansion in Europe.”

IonQ currently anticipates delivering the first quantum system in Europe after 2023 and, as such, the Company is not increasing its expectations for 2023 recognized revenue. IonQ looks forward to continuing to update investors on the Company’s financial outlook at its upcoming second quarter 2023 earnings call, the timing of which will be announced next month.

This increase in bookings expectations follows a series of achievements from IonQ as the Company continues its rapid growth. Earlier this year, IonQ announced that it had achieved its 2023 technical goal of demonstrating #AQ 29 on IonQ Forte seven months earlier than expected. Today, IonQ launched Forte for commercial use with customers including Airbus, Hyundai, and Los Alamos National Lab. Last quarter, the company announced it will be opening the first quantum computing manufacturing facility in the U.S., supported by the U.S. congressional delegation from Washington state.

1#AQ or algorithmic qubits is an application-oriented metric to assist the industry in evaluating quantum computers’ utility in real-world settings. For more information please visit our blog post here.
