Xanadu Quantum Technologies (XNDU) investor relations material

Hardware and Technology Roadmap

• Targets over 1,000 logical qubits by 2031, with milestones including a Qubit Factory (2026-2027), fault tolerance (2028-2029), and a quantum data center (2029-2030).

• Focus on reducing photon loss across key optical components, aiming for loss reduction from 24.1x in 2026 to 1.0x by 2030 and logical error rates down to 10^-16.

• Photonic quantum computing approach enables room-temperature operation, modularity, manufacturability with silicon processes, and faster clock speeds.

• Manufacturing expansion includes a 158,000 sq. ft. Toronto facility, supported by CAD 195 million (US$140.2 million) in Canadian government funding.

• Achieved milestones in networking, modularity, and all-to-all connectivity, with rapid iteration enabled by in-house manufacturing.

Software Platform and Ecosystem

• PennyLane is a leading, hardware-agnostic quantum software platform, with 1.1 million monthly installs, adoption by over 30% of quantum developers, and use at 150+ universities in 35+ countries.

• Supports 51 simulator and hardware devices, enabling cross-platform quantum application development and early commercial adoption.

• PennyLane is being re-architected for utility-scale quantum computers and is supported by a strong open-source and research foundation, including ~2,500 citations and 75 outside contributors in the past year.

• Catalyst and Lightning Simulators enhance compilation and simulation, enabling early validation and optimization of quantum applications.

• Strategic partnerships with organizations like Lockheed Martin, Rolls-Royce, Toyota, Volkswagen, AMD, and Mitsubishi Chemical Group support ecosystem growth and workforce training.

Commercialization and Monetization Strategy

• Commercialization avenues include cloud hardware access, system sales, SaaS subscriptions, IP licensing, consulting, and PennyLane software monetization.

• Monetization channels span workforce training, applied algorithm engagements, future product distribution, and hardware pull-through.

• Targeting meaningful customer commercialization by 2029-2030, with initial focus on technical milestones and partnerships.

• Exploring opportunities to commercialize photonics IP outside quantum computing, especially in ultra-low loss packaging for hyperscalers.

• Commercial strategies target both enterprise and government sectors.
