IonQ Surges on Q4 Beat, Sets Ambitious 2026 Revenue Goal
IonQ beat Q4 revenue with $61.9 million and issued a 2026 revenue target of $235 million, triggering about a 7% after-hours stock jump; the quantum‑computing pure‑play remains unprofitable, with EBITDA loss of $67.4 million and a full-year net loss of $753 million, even as it accelerates acquisitions (including Oxford Ionics) and grows government contracts such as a Missile Defense Agency award; investors have weighed recent short-seller allegations, but analysts remain mixed and many see the stock at a strategic inflection point.
