Bull case
▲ upsideOnly quantum-branded company with material revenue today, real customer logos (Vodafone, SoftBank, Mount Sinai, MapLight $200M), and a credible bridge from PQC migration to AI-quantum simulation. $5.75B post-money Series E (April 2025). Clear IPO candidate 2026-2027.
Bear case
▼ downside$5.75B on ~$20-30M revenue is a 200×+ multiple. If "quantum" branding fades and the business is just enterprise AI, comp set is far cheaper.
