Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.
On November 3, 2025, D-Wave Quantum Inc. (“D-Wave”) and Davidson Technologies, Inc. (“Davidson”) announced that D-Wave’s Advantage2TM quantum computer is now operational at Davidson’s headquarters in Huntsville, Alabama. The system is expected to address mission-critical U.S. government problems, particularly in national defense, and will eventually run sensitive applications.
This launch marks a major milestone in a multi-year agreement and technology collaboration between D-Wave and Davidson to accelerate quantum computing adoption and deployment among U.S. government agencies. D-Wave and Davidson are already exploring quantum use cases in areas such as radar detection, resource deployment, military logistics optimization, materials science, AI and national security. According to D-Wave’s CEO, Dr. Alan Baratz, D-Wave believes this is a significant step forward in accelerating the U.S. government’s use of quantum computing now and, together with Davidson, D-Wave can help the U.S. government apply quantum computing today to drive mission-critical decision-making, fuel operational efficiencies, and protect national interests.
Available for customer use now via D-Wave’s LeapTM real-time quantum cloud service, the system housed at Davidson’s headquarters is D-Wave’s second U.S.-based annealing quantum computer and the first in Alabama. Leading industry voices and Alabama lawmakers affirmed their support for this pivotal moment, highlighting the state’s expanding leadership in advanced technology and its growing role in driving innovation within national defense. A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1.
The information in this Item 7.01 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, including Exhibit 99.1, is intended to be furnished and shall not be deemed to be “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall such information be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.
