Quantum Computing Insights
Quantum Computing Inc. (QCi) has seen its stock surge by nearly 2,280% in the past year, while IonQ’s stock has increased by more than 510%. QCi is developing photonic chips designed to reduce quantum computing costs, aiming for $1.85 billion in revenue by 2027, despite a projected net loss of $44 million. In contrast, IonQ expects its revenue to grow from $43 million in 2024 to $315 million by 2027, though it anticipates widening losses from $332 million to $552 million during the same period.
Analysts predict IonQ will increase its total quantum computing power, measured in algorithmic qubits, significantly from 100 AQ in 2026 to 2 million AQ by 2030. QCi’s future is deemed uncertain due to its high valuation, over 1,300 times its projected 2027 revenue. Conversely, IonQ is seen as a more reasonable investment, valued at approximately 40 times its expected sales for 2027.
