PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT
(To Prospectus dated December 30, 2022)

Arqit Quantum Inc.

5,440,000 Ordinary Shares

We are offering to certain investors pursuant to this prospectus supplement and the accompanying base prospectus up to an aggregate of 5,440,000 of our ordinary shares, $0.000004 par value each (the “Ordinary Shares”). The purchase price per Ordinary Share is $2.50.

In a concurrent private placement, we are also offering to the purchasers of the Ordinary Shares warrants to purchase up to 5,440,000 of our Ordinary Shares (the “Warrants”). Each of the Warrants has an exercise price of $2.50 per share. The Ordinary Shares issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants are collectively referred to as the “Warrant Shares.” The Warrants will become exercisable only upon the later of (i) one year from the issuance date of the Warrants, (ii) the date of the approval by our shareholders of an increase in authorized capital sufficient to permit the issuance of the Warrant Shares and (iii) the date that the closing trading price of the Ordinary Shares on the Nasdaq Capital Market has exceeded $5.00 for 60 consecutive trading days (such later date, the “Exercise Date”). The Warrants will be exercisable for a period of one year following the Exercise Date. The Warrants will terminate on the earlier of (x) 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the last day of the exercise period or (y) 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date falling five years after the date of issuance. The Warrants and the Warrant Shares are being offered pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act provided in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and/or Regulation D promulgated thereunder.

Our Ordinary Shares and public warrants (the “Public Warrants”) are listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbols “ARQQ” and “ARQQW,” respectively. On September 27, 2024, the last reported sales price of our Ordinary Shares was $5.02 per share and the last reported sales price of our Public Warrants was $0.092 per warrant. The Warrants are distinct from, and will not be fungible with, our Public Warrants. Unlike the Public Warrants, there is no established trading market for the Warrants and we do not expect a market to develop. We do not intend to apply for a listing for any such Warrants on any securities exchange or other nationally recognized trading system. Without an active trading market, the liquidity of the Warrants will be limited.

We are a “foreign private issuer,” and an “emerging growth company” each as defined under the federal securities laws, and, as such, we are subject to reduced public company reporting requirements. See the section entitled “Summary — Implications of Being an Emerging Growth Company and a Foreign Private Issuer” for additional information.

Investing in our Ordinary Shares involves risks. You should review carefully the risks and uncertainties described under the heading “Risk Factors” beginning on page S-4 of this prospectus supplement and on page 5 of the accompanying prospectus, and under similar headings in any amendment or supplements to this prospectus supplement or the accompanying prospectus.

Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of these securities or passed upon the adequacy or accuracy of this prospectus supplement. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

Existing shareholders Heritage Assets SCSP, Notion Capital Managers LLP, Carlo Calabria and Garth Ritchie (collectively, the “Existing Shareholders”) have agreed to purchase 5,440,000 Ordinary Shares in the offering at a offering price of $2.50 per Ordinary Share. Manfredi Lefebvre d’Ovidio is a director of the Company and has shared investment and voting power over the shares held by Heritage Assets SCSP, existing Company shareholder Notion Capital Managers LLP is the beneficial owner of the Ordinary Shares held by Ropemaker Nominees Limited and Carlo Calabria and Garth Ritchie are directors of the Company.

Proceeds, before expenses, to us(1)		$	2.50		$	13,600,000

Does not reflect the proceeds, if any, from the exercise of the Warrants issued in the concurrent private placement.

Delivery of the securities being offered pursuant to this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus is expected to be made on or about September 30, 2024, but in any case no later than October 9, 2024.

The date of this prospectus supplement is September 30, 2024.

ABOUT THIS PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT

This document is in two parts. The first part, the prospectus supplement, including the documents incorporated by reference therein, describes the specific terms of this offering and certain matters relating to us. The second part, the accompanying prospectus, including the documents incorporated by reference therein, provides more general information, some of which may not apply to this offering. The accompanying prospectus was filed as part of a registration statement on Form F-3 with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, on December 28, 2022, as part of a “shelf” registration process. Under the shelf registration process, we may sell our Ordinary Shares in one or more offerings. Generally, when we refer to this prospectus supplement, we are referring to both parts of this document combined.

To the extent that any statement that we make in this prospectus supplement is inconsistent with statements made in the accompanying prospectus or any documents incorporated by reference therein, the statements made in this prospectus supplement will be deemed to modify or supersede those made in the accompanying prospectus and such documents incorporated by reference therein.

We have not authorized anyone to provide you with information that is different from that contained in or incorporated by reference into this prospectus supplement or the accompanying prospectus or in any free writing prospectus we may authorize to be delivered or made available to you.

We are not making an offer of these securities in any jurisdiction where the offer or sale is not permitted. You should not assume that the information provided by this prospectus supplement, the accompanying prospectus or the documents incorporated by reference herein or therein is accurate as of any date other than the respective dates of such documents. Our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects may have changed since those dates.

Therefore, we caution you to consider carefully the matters described under the caption “Risk Factors” and certain other matters discussed in this prospectus supplement, the documents incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement, and other publicly available sources. Such factors and many other factors beyond the control of our management could cause our actual results, level of activity, performance or achievements to differ materially from any future results, level of activity, performance or achievements that may be expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements.

SUMMARY

This summary highlights selected information contained elsewhere or incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement and does not contain all the information that you need to consider in making your investment decision. You should carefully read this entire prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus, as well as the information to which we refer you and the information incorporated by reference herein, before deciding whether to invest in our ordinary shares.

COMPANY OVERVIEW

Arqit supplies a unique encryption software service which makes the communications links of any networked device, cloud machine or data at rest secure against current and future forms of cyber attack on encryption — even from a quantum computer. Compatible with NSA CSfC Components and meeting the demands of NSA CSfC Symmetric Key Management Requirements Annexe 1.2. and RFC 8784, Arqit’s Symmetric Key Agreement Platform uses a lightweight software agent that allows end point devices to create encryption keys locally in partnership with any number of other devices. The keys are computationally secure and facilitate Zero Trust Network Access. It can create limitless volumes of keys with any group size and refresh rate and can regulate the secure entrance and exit of a device in a group. The agent is lightweight and will thus run on the smallest of end point devices. The product sits within a growing portfolio of granted patents. It also works in a standards compliant manner which does not oblige customers to make a disruptive rip and replace of their technology.

CORPORATE INFORMATION

Our registered office and principal place of business is located at 3 Orchard Place, London SW1H 0BF, United Kingdom and our telephone number is +44 203 91 70155. Our website address is https://arqit.uk. The information contained on our website or available through our website does not constitute part of this prospectus. Our registered agent in the United States is Arqit Inc., whose address is 1209 Orange Street, Wilmington, DE 19801.

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

Appointment of CEO; Director and CEO Resignation

On September 27, 2024, Arqit co-founder David Williams resigned as a director and chief executive officer, and our Board of Directors appointed Andy Leaver as chief executive officer.

25:1 Reverse Share Split

On September 25, 2024, we effected a 25:1 reverse share split, pursuant to which our authorized share capital was consolidated as follows: from $50,000 divided into 469,000,001 ordinary shares of a par value of $0.0001 each and 30,999,999 preference shares of a par value of $0.0001 each, to $80.00 divided into 18,760,000 ordinary shares of a par value of $0.000004 each and 1,240,000 preference shares of a par value of $0.000004 each (the “Reverse Share Split”). The Reverse Share Split was approved by our shareholders at the annual general meeting held on September 18, 2024.

By implementing the Reverse Share Split, we expect to regain compliance with Nasdaq’s minimum $1.00 bid price per share requirement, however, we cannot assure you that we will regain compliance. We were first notified by Nasdaq of our failure to maintain a minimum bid price of $1.00 per share for 30 consecutive trading days under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) on October 19, 2023, and we were given 180 calendar days, until April 16, 2024, to regain compliance. On April 18, 2024, we received an extension of another 180-calendar-day compliance period until October 14, 2024, to regain compliance. If we are unable to regain compliance with Nasdaq continued listing requirements, our Ordinary Shares may be delisted. See “Risk Factors — Our Ordinary Shares may be involuntarily delisted from trading on Nasdaq if we fail to comply with the continued listing requirements. A delisting of our Ordinary Shares could reduce the liquidity of the Ordinary Shares and may inhibit or preclude our ability to raise additional capital” for more information.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

IMPLICATIONS OF BEING AN EMERGING GROWTH COMPANY AND A FOREIGN PRIVATE ISSUER

Emerging Growth Company

Arqit is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”). As such, it is eligible to take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not “emerging growth companies” including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the “Sarbanes- Oxley Act”). Additionally, to the extent that Arqit ceases to be a foreign private issuer, its emerging growth company status would allow it to include reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and to be exempt from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. If some investors find Arqit’s securities less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for Arqit’s securities and the prices of Arqit’s securities may be more volatile.

Arqit will remain an emerging growth company until the earlier of: (1) the last day of the fiscal year (a) following the fifth anniversary of the closing of our business combination (i.e., September 3, 2026), (b) in which it has total annual gross revenues of at least $1.235 billion, or (c) in which it is deemed to be a large accelerated filer, which means the market value of its ordinary shares that are held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the end of the prior fiscal year’s second fiscal quarter; and (2) the date on which it has issued more than $1.00 billion in non-convertible debt during the prior three-year period. References herein to “emerging growth company” shall have the meaning associated with it in the JOBS Act.

Foreign Private Issuer

Arqit is a “foreign private issuer” under United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules. Consequently, Arqit is subject to the reporting requirements under the Exchange Act applicable to foreign private issuers. Arqit will be required to file its annual reports on Form 20-F, and will furnish reports on Form 6-K to the SEC regarding certain information that is distributed or required to be distributed by Arqit to its shareholders.

Based on its foreign private issuer status, Arqit will not be required to file periodic reports and financial statements with the SEC as frequently or as promptly as a U.S. company whose securities are registered under the Exchange Act. Arqit will also not be required to comply with Regulation FD, which addresses certain restrictions on the selective disclosure of material information. In addition, among other matters, Arqit officers, directors and principal shareholders will be exempt from the reporting and “short- swing” profit recovery provisions of Section 16 of the Exchange Act and the rules under the Exchange Act with respect to their purchases and sales of Ordinary Shares.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

RISK FACTORS

An investment in our securities involves a high degree of risk. Before making an investment decision, you should carefully consider all risk factors set forth in reports we file with the SEC and incorporated by reference into the accompanying prospectus, as well as all of the other information in, and incorporated by reference into, this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus, including in our most recent annual report on Form 20-F. Our business, prospects, financial condition, or operating results could be harmed by any of the risks described, as well as other risks not known to us or that we currently deem immaterial. The trading price of our securities could decline due to any of these risks, and, as a result, you may lose all or part of your investment.

Risks Related to our Ordinary Shares and this Offering

This offering may cause the trading price of our Ordinary Shares to decrease.

Pursuant to this offering, we are selling 5,440,000 Ordinary Shares, at a price per share of $2.50, representing an approximately 50% discount to the closing price of our Ordinary Shares on the Nasdaq Capital Market on September 27, 2024. The price per share, together with the number of Ordinary Shares we propose to issue and ultimately will issue if this offering is completed, may result in an immediate decrease in the market price of our Ordinary Shares. This decrease may continue after the completion of this offering.

Future sales of substantial amounts of our Ordinary Shares, or the possibility that such sales could occur, could adversely affect the market price of our Ordinary Shares.

In order to raise additional capital, we may in the future offer additional Ordinary Shares or other securities convertible into or exchangeable for our Ordinary Shares at prices that may not be the same as the price per share in this offering. We may sell Ordinary Shares or other securities in any other offering at a price per share that is less than the price per share paid by investors in this offering, and investors purchasing Ordinary Shares or other securities in the future could have rights superior to existing shareholders. The price per share at which we sell additional Ordinary Shares, or securities convertible or exchangeable into Ordinary Shares, in future transactions may be higher or lower than the price per share paid by investors in this offering.

You may experience future dilution as a result of future equity offerings.

The price per Ordinary Share, together with the number of Ordinary Shares we propose to issue and ultimately will issue if this offering is completed, may result in an immediate decrease in the market price of our Ordinary Shares. Our historical net tangible book value as of March 31, 2024 was $11.6 million, or approximately $1.74 per Ordinary Share. After giving effect to the 5,440,000 Ordinary Shares to be sold in this offering at an offering price of $2.50 per Ordinary Share, our as adjusted net tangible book value as of March 31, 2024 would have been $25.0 million, or approximately $2.07 per Ordinary Share. This represents an immediate increase in the net tangible book value of $0.33 per Ordinary Share to our existing shareholders and an immediate increase in the net tangible book value of approximately $0.43 per share of our Ordinary Shares to new investors, representing the difference between the offering price and our as adjusted net tangible book value as of March 31, 2024, after giving effect to this offering, and the offering price per share.

In addition, we have stock options, restricted share units and warrants outstanding, and, in order to raise additional capital, we may in the future offer additional Ordinary Shares or other securities convertible into or exchangeable for Ordinary Shares at prices that may not be the same as the price per share in this offering. In the event that the outstanding options, restricted share units or warrants are exercised or settled, or that we make additional issuances of Ordinary Shares or other convertible or exchangeable securities, you could experience dilution. We cannot assure you that we will be able to sell shares or other securities in any other offering at a price per share that is equal to or greater than the price per share paid by investors in this offering, and investors purchasing shares or other securities in the future could have rights superior to existing shareholders, including investors who purchase Ordinary Shares in this offering. The price per share at which we sell additional Ordinary Shares or securities convertible into Ordinary Shares in future transactions, may be higher or lower than the price per share in this offering. As a result, purchasers of the shares we sell, as well as our existing shareholders, will experience significant dilution if we sell at prices

significantly below the price at which they invested. See the section entitled “Dilution” below for a more detailed illustration of the effects of this offering on the per share net tangible book value.

Our management will have broad discretion in the use of the net proceeds from this offering and may invest or spend the proceeds in ways with which you do not agree and in ways that may not yield a return.

Our management will have broad discretion in the application of the net proceeds from this offering, including for any of the purposes described in the section titled “Use of Proceeds,” and you will not have the opportunity as part of your investment decision to assess whether the net proceeds are being used appropriately. Because of the number and variability of factors that will determine our use of the net proceeds from this offering, their ultimate use may vary from their currently intended use. The failure by our management to apply these funds effectively could harm our business.

Our Ordinary Shares may be involuntarily delisted from trading on Nasdaq if we fail to comply with the continued listing requirements. A delisting of our Ordinary Shares could reduce the liquidity of the Ordinary Shares and may inhibit or preclude our ability to raise additional capital.

Nasdaq requires us to meet certain financial, public float, bid price and liquidity standards on an ongoing basis in order to continue the listing of our Ordinary Shares. On October 19, 2023, we received a notification from Nasdaq notifying us that we no longer satisfy Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) because for the 30 consecutive business days preceding the date of the notification, the bid price per share of the Ordinary Shares had closed below the $1.00 per share minimum bid price required for continued listing on Nasdaq (the “Minimum Bid Price Requirement”). We had 180 calendar days, until April 16, 2024 (the “Initial Period”), to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement. We did not regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement during the Initial Period. On April 18, 2024, we received a letter from Nasdaq notifying us that we are eligible for an additional 180-day compliance period to cure the deficiency, until October 14, 2024 (the “Extension Period”). We will regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement if, by the end of the Extension Period, the closing bid price of our Ordinary Shares is at least $1.00 for a minimum of ten consecutive business days.

We implemented a 25:1 Reverse Share Split on September 25, 2024 for the purpose of adjusting our Ordinary Shares’ bid price upward. However, we cannot assure you that the Reverse Share Split will maintain our bid price above the Minimum Bid Price Requirement for ten consecutive business days prior to October 14, 2024. If the sale of Ordinary Shares in this offering causes a decrease in our share price, such decrease may cause us to be unable to demonstrate compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement.

If we cannot demonstrate such compliance by the end of the Extension Period, the Nasdaq staff may notify us that our Ordinary Shares are subject to delisting. If our Ordinary Shares are delisted and we are not able to list the Ordinary Shares on another national securities exchange, our shareholders could face significant material adverse consequences, including limited availability of market quotations for our Ordinary Shares and reduced liquidity for the trading of our securities. In addition, we could experience a decreased ability to issue additional securities and obtain additional capital in the future.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

USE OF PROCEEDS

We expect to receive net proceeds of approximately $13.5 million from this offering, after deducting estimated offering expenses payable by us. We will receive additional proceeds from the concurrent private placement transaction solely to the extent such Warrants are exercised for cash. If all of the Warrants are exercised for cash, we would receive approximately $13.6 million in proceeds from such exercises. We intend to use the net proceeds from this offering for general corporate purposes.

S-6

TABLE OF CONTENTS

DILUTION

If you purchase our Ordinary Shares in this offering, your interest will be diluted or increase to the extent of the difference between the offering price per share of our Ordinary Shares and the net tangible book value per Ordinary Share after this offering. As of March 31, 2024, our net tangible book value was $11.6 million, or $1.74 per Ordinary Share. We calculate net tangible book value per share by dividing our net tangible assets (total tangible assets less total liabilities) by the number of Ordinary Shares issued and outstanding.

After giving effect to the sale of our Ordinary Shares in this offering at an offering price of $2.50 per share, our as adjusted net tangible book value as of March 31, 2024 would have been $25.0 million, or approximately $2.07 per Ordinary Share. This represents an immediate increase in the net tangible book value of $0.33 per Ordinary Share to our existing shareholders and an immediate increase in net tangible book value of approximately $0.43 per Ordinary Share to new investors. The following table illustrates this per share dilution:

Offering price per Ordinary Share	$	2.50
Net tangible book value per Ordinary Share as of March 31, 2024	$	1.74
Increase in net tangible book value per Ordinary Shares attributable to this offering	$	0.33
As adjusted net tangible book value per Ordinary Share as of March 31, 2024, after giving effect to this offering	$	2.07
Increase in net tangible book value per Ordinary Share to new investors purchasing Ordinary Shares in this offering	$	0.43

The above discussion and table are based on 6,652,570 Ordinary Shares outstanding as of March 31, 2024, as adjusted to reflect the Reverse Share Split, and excludes, as of such date, Ordinary Shares issuable upon the vesting of outstanding restricted share units, Ordinary Shares reserved for future issuance under our 2021 Incentive Award Plan and Ordinary Shares issuable upon the exercise of our Public Warrants, Registered Direct Warrants or the Warrants.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

DIVIDEND POLICY

We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on our Ordinary Shares. We currently intend to retain our future earnings, if any, to finance the growth and development of our business and do not expect to pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. As a result, the success of an investment in our Ordinary Shares will depend entirely upon any future appreciation. There is no guarantee that our Ordinary Shares will appreciate in value or even maintain the price at which our shareholders purchased their shares.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

DESCRIPTION OF THE SECURITIES WE ARE OFFERING

We are offering our Ordinary Shares. The following description of our Ordinary Shares summarizes the material terms and provisions thereof, including the material terms of the Ordinary Shares we are offering pursuant to this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus.

Ordinary Shares

TABLE OF CONTENTS

CONCURRENT PRIVATE PLACEMENT TRANSACTION

Concurrently with the sale of the Ordinary Shares in this offering, we will issue to the investors in this offering Warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 5,440,000 Ordinary Shares at an exercise price of $2.50 per share in a private placement. We are required to hold an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders as soon as practicable, but in any case no later than December 31, 2024, for the purpose of obtaining shareholder approval of an amendment to our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association to increase our authorized share capital to a number of shares sufficient to permit exercise of the Warrants (the “Shareholder Approval”). If we do not obtain Shareholder Approval at the first meeting, we must call a meeting every six (6) months thereafter to seek Shareholder Approval until the earlier of the date on which Shareholder Approval is obtained or the Warrants are no longer outstanding.

We will receive additional proceeds from the concurrent private placement transaction solely to the extent such Warrants are exercised.

The Warrants and the Warrant Shares are not being registered under the Securities Act, are not being offered pursuant to this prospectus supplement and the accompanying base prospectus and are being offered pursuant to the exemption provided in Section 4(a)(2) under the Securities Act and/or Rule 506(b) promulgated thereunder. Accordingly, the investors may only sell Warrant Shares pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act covering the issuance of the Warrant Shares or the resale of those shares, an exemption under Rule 144 under the Securities Act or another applicable exemption under the Securities Act.

The summary below is not complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the provisions of the form of Warrant, which was filed with the SEC as an exhibit to a Report on Form 6-K in connection with this offering and incorporated by reference into the registration statement of which this prospectus supplement and the accompanying base prospectus form a part. Prospective investors should carefully review the terms and provisions of the form of the Warrant for a complete description of the terms and conditions of the Warrants.

Warrants

Duration and Exercise Price

Each Warrant offered in the concurrent private placement will have an initial exercise price of $2.50 per share. The Warrants will become exercisable only upon the later of (i) one year from the issuance date of the Warrants, (ii) the date of the approval by our shareholders of an increase in authorized capital sufficient to permit the issuance of the Warrant Shares and (iii) the date that the closing trading price of the Ordinary Shares on the Nasdaq Capital Market has exceeded $5.00 for 60 consecutive trading days. The Warrants will be exercisable for a period of one year following the Exercise Date. The Warrants will terminate on the earlier of (x) 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the last day of the exercise period or (y) 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date falling five years after the date of issuance. The exercise price and number of Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise are subject to appropriate adjustment in the event of share dividends, share splits, reorganizations or similar events affecting our Ordinary Shares. Warrants will be issued in certificated form only.

Exercisability

The Warrants will be exercisable, at the option of each holder, in whole or in part, by delivering to us a duly executed exercise notice accompanied by payment in full for the number of Ordinary Shares purchased upon such exercise.

Fundamental Transactions

In the event of any fundamental transaction, as described in the Warrants and generally including any merger with or into another entity, sale of all or substantially all of our assets, tender offer or exchange offer, or reclassification of our Ordinary Shares, then upon any subsequent exercise of a Warrant, the holder will have the right to receive as alternative consideration, for each Ordinary Share that would have been

S-10

TABLE OF CONTENTS

issuable upon such exercise immediately prior to the occurrence of such fundamental transaction, the number of Ordinary Shares of the successor or acquiring corporation or of our company, if it is the surviving corporation, and any additional consideration receivable upon or as a result of such transaction by a holder of the number of Ordinary Shares for which the Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to such event. In certain circumstances, the holder will have the right to receive the Black Scholes Value of the Warrant calculated pursuant to a formula set forth in the Warrants, payable either in cash or in the same type or form of consideration that is being offered and being paid to the holders of our Ordinary Shares as described in the Warrants. If we are not the surviving entity, then we will require the successor entity to assume all of our obligations under the Warrants.

Transferability

In accordance with its terms and subject to applicable laws, including compliance with U.S. federal and state securities laws, a Warrant may be transferred at the option of the holder upon surrender of the Warrant to us together with the appropriate instruments of transfer and payment of funds sufficient to pay any transfer taxes (if applicable).

Fractional Shares

No fractional Ordinary Shares will be issued upon the exercise of the Warrants. Rather, the number of Ordinary Shares to be issued will, at our election, either be rounded up to the nearest whole number or we will pay a cash adjustment in respect of such final fraction in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by the exercise price.

Trading Market

Unlike our Public Warrants, there is no established trading market for the Warrants, and we do not expect a market to develop. The Warrants are distinct from, and will not be fungible with, our Public Warrants. We do not intend to apply for a listing for the Warrants on any securities exchange or other nationally recognized trading system. Without an active trading market, the liquidity of the Warrants will be limited.

Rights as a Shareholder

Except as otherwise provided in the Warrants or by virtue of the holder’s ownership of Ordinary Shares, the holders of Warrants do not have the rights or privileges of holders of our Ordinary Shares, including any voting rights, until such Warrant holders exercise their warrants.

Resale/Registration Rights.

We are required, reasonably promptly after the filing with the SEC our Annual Report for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2024, but in any event no later than December 31, 2024, to file a registration statement covering the issuance of the Warrant Shares, and the resale of the Shares and the Warrant Shares. We are required to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such registration to become effective as soon as practicable after the filing thereof but no later than the tenth business day after the date the Company is notified (orally or in writing, whichever is earlier) by the SEC that such registration statement will not be “reviewed” or will not be subject to further review and to keep such registration statement effective at all times (subject to customary rights to suspend the use of the prospectus included in the resale registration statement) with respect to each Purchaser’s registrable securities until the earlier of the date that the Purchaser no longer holds any registrable securities, the date that all registrable securities held by the Purchaser may be sold without restriction under Rule 144 promulgated by the SEC under the Securities Act, including without limitation, any volume and manner of sale restrictions which may be applicable to affiliates under Rule 144, and the date that is two years after the closing date of the offering.

INDUSTRY AND MARKET DATA

In this prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference in this prospectus, we present industry data, information and statistics regarding the markets in which the Company competes as well as publicly available information, industry and general publications and research and studies conducted by third parties. This information is supplemented where necessary with the Company’s own internal estimates and information obtained from discussions with its customers, taking into account publicly available information about other industry participants and the Company’s management’s judgment where information is not publicly available.

Industry publications, research, studies and forecasts generally state that the information they contain has been obtained from sources believed to be reliable, but that the accuracy and completeness of such information is not guaranteed. Forecasts and other forward-looking information obtained from these sources are subject to the same qualifications and uncertainties as the other forward-looking statements in this prospectus or any document incorporated by reference into this prospectus. These forecasts and forward-looking information are subject to uncertainty and risk due to a variety of factors, including those described under the section entitled “Risk Factors.” These and other factors could cause results to differ materially from those expressed in any forecasts or estimates.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This prospectus and the documents incorporated in it by reference contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, and the safe harbor provisions of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, which are based on our management’s beliefs and assumptions and on information currently available to our management. Forward-looking statements include information concerning our possible or assumed future results of our business, financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, plans and objectives. Forward-looking statements include all statements that are not historical facts and in some cases can be identified by terminology such as “believe,” “may,” “estimate,” “continue,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “should,” “plan,” “expect,” “predict,” “potential,” or the negative of these terms or other similar expressions that convey uncertainty of future events or outcomes.

Our ability to predict the results of our operations or the effects of various events on our operating results is inherently uncertain. Therefore, we caution you to consider carefully the matters described under the caption “Risk Factors” and certain other matters discussed in this prospectus, the documents incorporated by reference in this prospectus, and other publicly available sources. Such factors and many other factors beyond the control of our management could cause our actual results, level of activity, performance or achievements to differ materially from any future results, level of activity, performance or achievements that may be expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements.

CORPORATE INFORMATION

Our registered office and principal place of business is located at Nova North, Floor 7, 11 Bressenden Place, London SW1E 5BY, United Kingdom and our telephone number is +44 203 91 70155. Our website address is https://arqit.uk. The information contained on our website or available through our website does not constitute part of this prospectus. Our registered agent in the United States is Arqit Inc., whose address is 1209 Orange Street, Wilmington, DE 19801.

IMPLICATIONS OF BEING AN EMERGING GROWTH COMPANY AND A FOREIGN PRIVATE ISSUER

Emerging Growth Company

Arqit is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”). As such, it is eligible to take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not “emerging growth companies” including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the “Sarbanes-Oxley Act”). Additionally, to the extent that Arqit ceases to become a foreign private issuer, emerging growth company status would allow it to include reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and to be exempt from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. If some investors find Arqit’s securities less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for Arqit’s securities and the prices of Arqit’s securities may be more volatile.

Arqit will remain an emerging growth company until the earlier of: (1) the last day of the fiscal year (a) following the fifth anniversary of the closing of the Business Combination, (b) in which it has total annual gross revenues of at least $1.235 billion, or (c) in which it is deemed to be a large accelerated filer, which means the market value of its ordinary shares that are held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the end of the prior fiscal year’s second fiscal quarter; and (2) the date on which it has issued more than $1.00 billion in non-convertible debt during the prior three-year period. References herein to “emerging growth company” shall have the meaning associated with it in the JOBS Act.

Foreign Private Issuer

Arqit is a “foreign private issuer” under SEC rules. Consequently, Arqit is subject to the reporting requirements under the Exchange Act, applicable to foreign private issuers. Arqit will be required to file its annual reports on Form 20-F, and will furnish reports on Form 6-K to the SEC regarding certain information that is distributed or required to be distributed by Arqit to its shareholders.

Based on its foreign private issuer status, Arqit will not be required to file periodic reports and financial statements with the SEC as frequently or as promptly as a U.S. company whose securities are registered under the Exchange Act. Arqit will also not be required to comply with Regulation FD, which addresses certain restrictions on the selective disclosure of material information. In addition, among other matters, Arqit officers, directors and principal shareholders will be exempt from the reporting and “short-swing” profit recovery provisions of Section 16 of the Exchange Act and the rules under the Exchange Act with respect to their purchases and sales of Ordinary Shares.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

RISK FACTORS

An investment in any securities described in this prospectus involves a high degree of risk. Before making an investment decision, you should carefully consider all risk factors set forth in any applicable prospectus supplement and the documents incorporated by reference in this prospectus, including the factors discussed under the heading “Risk Factors” in our most recent annual report on Form 20-F or any updates in our current reports on Form 6-K, which may be amended, supplemented or superseded from time to time by the other reports we file with the SEC in the future or by information in the applicable prospectus supplement. See “Where You Can Find More Information.” Our business, prospects, financial condition, or operating results could be harmed by any of the risks described, as well as other risks not known to us or that we consider immaterial as of the date of this prospectus. The trading price of any of the securities described in this prospectus could decline due to any of these risks, and, as a result, you may lose all or part of your investment.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

OFFER STATISTICS AND EXPECTED TIMETABLE

We may sell from time to time pursuant to this prospectus (as may be detailed in an applicable prospectus supplement) an indeterminate number of securities as shall have a maximum aggregate offering price of $100 million. The actual price per share of the ordinary shares that we will offer, or per security of the securities that we will offer, pursuant hereto will depend on a number of factors that may be relevant as of the time of offer. See “Plan of Distribution.”

USE OF PROCEEDS

Unless otherwise specified in an applicable prospectus supplement, we intend to use the proceeds we receive from the sale of securities offered hereunder for general corporate purposes, which may include working capital, capital expenditures, investments and the financing of possible acquisitions. Additional information relating thereto may be set forth in any applicable prospectus supplement.

DESCRIPTION OF DEBT SECURITIES

We may issue debt securities together with other securities or separately. The debt securities may be secured or unsecured, may be senior, senior subordinated or subordinated, and may be convertible or exchangeable into shares of our ordinary shares.

DESCRIPTION OF WARRANTS

We may issue warrants to purchase ordinary shares. Warrants may be issued independently or together with any other securities and may be attached to, or separate from, such securities.

The terms of any warrants to be issued and a description of the material provisions of the applicable warrant agreement will be set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement.

The applicable prospectus supplement will describe the following terms of any warrants in respect of which this prospectus is being delivered:

•

the title of such warrants;

•

the aggregate number of such warrants;

•

the price or prices at which such warrants will be issued and exercised;

•

the currency or currencies in which the price of such warrants will be payable;

•

the securities purchasable upon exercise of such warrants;

•

the date on which the right to exercise such warrants shall commence and the date on which such right shall expire;

•

if applicable, the minimum or maximum amount of such warrants which may be exercised at any one time;

•

if applicable, the designation and terms of the securities with which such warrants are issued and the number of such warrants issued with each such security;

•

if applicable, the date on and after which such warrants and the related securities will be separately transferable;

•

information with respect to book-entry procedures, if any;

•

any material Cayman Islands and U.S. federal income tax consequences;

•

the anti-dilution provisions of the warrants, if any; and

•

any other terms of such warrants, including terms, procedures and limitations relating to the exchange and exercise of such warrants.

We and the warrant agent may amend or supplement the warrant agreement for a series of warrants without the consent of the holders of the warrants issued thereunder to effect changes that are not inconsistent with the provisions of the warrants and that do not materially and adversely affect the interests of the holders of the warrants.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

We may sell the securities in one or more of the following ways (or in any combination) from time to time:

•

through underwriters or dealers;

•

directly to a limited number of purchasers or to a single purchaser;

•

through agents; or

•

through any other method permitted by applicable law and described in the applicable prospectus supplement.

The distribution of our securities may be carried out, from time to time, in one or more transactions, including:

•

block transactions and transactions on The Nasdaq Capital Market or any other organized market where the securities may be traded;

•

purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its own account pursuant to a prospectus supplement;

•

ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which a broker-dealer solicits purchasers;

•

sales “at the market” to or through a market maker or into an existing trading market, on an exchange or otherwise; or

•

sales in other ways not involving market makers or established trading markets, including direct sales to purchasers.

A prospectus supplement or supplements (and any related free writing prospectus that we may authorize to be provided to you) will describe the terms of the offering of the securities, including, to the extent applicable:

•

the name or names of any underwriters, dealers or agents;

•

the method of distribution;

•

the public offering price or purchase price and the proceeds to us from that sale;

any discounts to be allowed or paid to the underwriters, dealers or agents;

•

all other items constituting underwriting compensation and the discounts to be allowed or paid to dealers, if any; and

•

any other information regarding the distribution of the securities that we believe to be material.

Underwriters may offer and sell the securities at a fixed price or prices, which may be changed, or from time to time at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to prevailing market prices or at negotiated prices. We may, from time to time, authorize agents acting on a best or reasonable efforts basis as our agents to solicit or receive offers to purchase the securities upon the terms and conditions as are set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement. In connection with the sale of securities, underwriters or agents may be deemed to have received compensation from us in the form of underwriting discounts and may also receive commissions from purchasers of securities for whom they may act as agent. Underwriters may sell securities to or through dealers, and dealers may receive compensation in the form of discounts or concessions from the underwriters and commissions from the purchasers for whom they may act as agent.

Underwriters, dealers and agents who participate in the distribution of securities and their controlling persons may be entitled, under agreements that may be entered into with us to indemnification by us against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, or to contribution with respect to payments that the underwriters, dealers or agents and their controlling persons may be required to make in respect of those liabilities.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Certain persons participating in an offering may engage in over-allotment, stabilizing transactions, short-covering transactions and penalty bids in accordance with Regulation M under the Exchange Act that stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the price of the offered securities. If any such activities will occur, they will be described in the applicable prospectus supplement.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

ENFORCEMENT OF CIVIL LIABILITIES

The Company has been advised by Maples and Calder (Cayman) LLP, its Cayman Islands legal counsel, that the courts of the Cayman Islands are unlikely (i) to recognize, or enforce against the Company, judgments of courts of the United States predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the United States or any State; and (ii) in original actions brought in the Cayman Islands, to impose liabilities against the Company predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the United States or any State, so far as the liabilities imposed by those provisions are penal in nature. In those circumstances, although there is no statutory enforcement in the Cayman Islands of judgments obtained in the United States, the courts of the Cayman Islands will recognize and enforce a foreign money judgment of a foreign court of competent jurisdiction without retrial on the merits based on the principle that a judgment of a competent foreign court imposes upon the judgment debtor an obligation to pay the sum for which judgment has been given provided certain conditions are met. For a foreign judgment to be enforced in the Cayman Islands, such judgment must be final and conclusive and for a liquidated sum, and must not be in respect of taxes or a fine or penalty, inconsistent with a Cayman Islands judgment in respect of the same matter, impeachable on the grounds of fraud or obtained in a manner, and or be of a kind the enforcement of which is, contrary to natural justice or the public policy of the Cayman Islands (awards of punitive or multiple damages may well be held to be contrary to public policy). A Cayman Islands court may stay enforcement proceedings if concurrent proceedings are being brought elsewhere. There is recent Privy Council authority (which is binding on the Cayman Islands court) in the context of a reorganization plan approved by the New York Bankruptcy Court which suggests that due to the universal nature of bankruptcy/insolvency proceedings, foreign money judgments obtained in foreign bankruptcy/insolvency proceedings may be enforced without applying the principles outlined above. However, a more recent English Supreme Court authority (which is highly persuasive but not binding on the Cayman Islands court), has expressly rejected that approach in the context of a default judgment obtained in an adversary proceeding brought in the New York Bankruptcy Court by the receivers of the bankruptcy debtor against a third party, and which would not have been enforceable upon the application of the traditional common law principles summarized above and held that foreign money judgments obtained in bankruptcy/insolvency proceedings should be enforced by applying the principles set out above, and not by the simple exercise of the Courts’ discretion. Those cases have now been considered by the Cayman Islands court. The Cayman Islands court was not asked to consider the specific question of whether a judgment of a bankruptcy court in an adversary proceeding would be enforceable in the Cayman Islands, but it did endorse the need for active assistance of overseas bankruptcy proceedings. We understand that the Cayman Islands court’s decision in that case has been appealed and it remains the case that the law regarding the enforcement of bankruptcy/insolvency related judgments is still in a state of uncertainty.

Anti-Money Laundering — Cayman Islands

If any person in the Cayman Islands knows or suspects or has reasonable grounds for knowing or suspecting that another person is engaged in criminal conduct or money laundering or is involved with terrorism or terrorist financing and property and the information for that knowledge or suspicion came to their attention in the course of business in the regulated sector, or other trade, profession, business or employment, the person will be required to report such knowledge or suspicion to (i) the Financial Reporting Authority of the Cayman Islands, pursuant to the Proceeds of Crime Act (As Revised) of the Cayman Islands if the disclosure relates to criminal conduct or money laundering, or (ii) a police officer of the rank of constable or higher, or the Financial Reporting Authority, pursuant to the Terrorism Act (As Revised) of the Cayman Islands, if the disclosure relates to involvement with terrorism or terrorist financing and property. Such a report shall not be treated as a breach of confidence or of any restriction upon the disclosure of information imposed by any enactment or otherwise. If the Company was determined by the Cayman Islands authorities to be in violation of the Proceeds of Crime Act (As Revised), the Terrorism Act (As Revised) or the Cayman Anti-Money Laundering Regulations, the Company could be subject to substantial criminal penalties and/or administrative fines.

Data Protection — Cayman Islands

We have certain duties under the Data Protection Act (As Revised) of the Cayman Islands (the “DPL”) based on internationally accepted principles of data privacy.

In addition, we are not required under the Exchange Act to file periodic financial statements with the SEC as frequently or as promptly as U.S. companies whose securities are registered under the Exchange Act.

Incorporation by Reference

The SEC’s rules allow us to “incorporate by reference” information into this prospectus, which means that we can disclose important information to you by referring you to another document filed separately with the SEC.

Any such statement so modified or superseded shall not be deemed, except as so modified or superseded, to constitute a part of this prospectus.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no information is incorporated by reference in this prospectus or any prospectus supplement hereto where such information under applicable forms and regulations of the SEC is not deemed to be “filed” under Section 18 of the Exchange Act or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, unless the report or filing containing such information indicates that the information therein is to be considered “filed” under the Exchange Act or is to be incorporated by reference in this prospectus or any prospectus supplement hereto.
