Bull case

upside

SPAC with Bleichroeder Acquisition Corp II at $2.0B pre-money rollover, €340M total raise. Pasqal reached 1,000 qubits in 2024, targeting 10,000 by 2026. 100% revenue growth in 2025, ~$80M booked-and-awarded. Selected for France's €500M PROQCIMA program. Investors: Temasek, Saudi Aramco, Quanta, LG, CMA CGM.

Bear case

downside

SPAC structure is going-public path of last resort — Xanadu's post-listing 67% drop on resale filings is a recent reminder. Neutral-atom field is crowded. European listing dynamics may limit US institutional demand.
