We believe that this patented and patent pending, modular chip architecture is the building block for new generations of quantum processors that we expect to achieve a clear advantage over classical computers.

Our long-term business model centers on revenue generated from sales of quantum processing units (QPUs) and quantum computing systems made accessible via the cloud in the form of Quantum Computing as a Service (“QCaaS’) products.

However, the substantial majority of our revenues are derived from development contracts, and we anticipate this market opportunity will continue to represent an important source of revenue for at least the next several years as we work to ramp up sales of QPUs and our QCaaS business.

As of December 31, 2025, we had an accumulated deficit of $771.0 million.

We believe that our existing cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities should be sufficient to meet our anticipated operating cash needs for at least the next three years and possibly longer based on our current business plan, and expectations and assumptions considering current macroeconomic conditions.

Based on our forecasts, we believe that our existing cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities will be sufficient to meet our anticipated operating cash needs for at least the next twelve months based on our current business plan, and expectations and assumptions considering current macroeconomic conditions.

Our operating plan may change because of factors currently unknown, and we may need to seek additional funds sooner than planned, through public or private equity or debt financing or other sources, such as strategic collaborations or other transactions.

In addition, we may seek additional capital even if we believe that we have sufficient funds for current or future operating plans.

Key achievements include the launch of our 84-qubit Ankaa-3 system, our newest flagship quantum computer featuring an extensive hardware redesign.

We also achieved major two-qubit gate fidelity milestones with Ankaa-3:

successfully halving error rates in 2024 to achieve a 99.0% median two-qubit iSWAP gate fidelity, as well as demonstrating a 99.5% median two-qubit fidelity with fSim gates.

In 2025, we plan to introduce the next generation of our modular system architecture, while aiming to continue to increase fidelities.

By mid-year 2025, we expect to release a 36-qubit system based on four 9-qubit chips tiled together, with a targeted 2x reduction in error rates from our error rates achieved at the end of 2024.

By the end of 2025, we expect to release a system with over 100 qubits with a targeted 2x reduction in error rates from our error rates achieved at the end of 2024.

We believe that we will be able to achieve our plans for 2025 described above and elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K;

however, we face various risks and uncertainties relating to our business that could cause actual results to differ materially from our expectations stated herein.

This Annual Report on Form 10-K, including this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations should be read in conjunction with the section entitled “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

In February 2023, we announced an updated business strategy, including revisions to our technology roadmap.

In connection with this updated strategy, we implemented a workforce reduction beginning in February 2023 to focus the organization and our resources on nearer-term strategic priorities and our efforts to achieve narrow quantum advantage.

The reduction in the workforce impacted approximately 50 employees or 28% of our then workforce.

We began implementing activities with respect to the revised business plan and reduction in workforce in February 2023.

Affected employees were offered separation benefits, including severance payments and temporary healthcare coverage assistance.

We incurred a $1.0 million restructuring charge in the three months ended March 31, 2023, for severance payments and temporary healthcare coverage for effected employees.

In addition to the restructuring charge, we also incurred $1.0 million of expenses for contractual severance benefits related to executive officers of the Company that were terminated in the three months ended March 31, 2023.

In the fourth quarter of 2024, we announced the public launch of our 84-qubit Ankaa-3 system, which featured an extensive hardware redesign.

We achieved a key two-qubit gate fidelity milestone with Ankaa-3:

successfully halving error rates in 2024 to achieve a 99.0% median two-qubit gate fidelity based on our internal testing.

For information on gate fidelity, see “—Our Technology—Our Superconducting Quantum Processors—Fidelity.”

In the second quarter of 2025, we announced the public launch of our 36-qubit Cepheus-1-36Q system, our newest flagship quantum computer that utilizes our modular chip architecture and demonstrates our path to scaling to higher qubit count and higher performing systems.

Made of four 9-qubit “chiplets,” we believe that Cepheus-1-36Q is the industry’s largest multi-chip quantum computer.

As of January 2026, we achieved a 99.6% median two-qubit gate fidelity (based on internal testing) with Cepheus-1-36Q, successfully halving our error rate from our previous, single-chip 84-qubit Ankaa-3 system.

Ankaa-3 and Cepheus-1-36Q are available to our partners via the Rigetti QCS platform.

Cepheus-1-36Q is intended to enable users to operate our universal CZ gates for a wide range of algorithmic research, with a median gate time of 76 nanoseconds.

Our CZ gates are designed to be optimized for fast gate times while reducing coherent errors, which improves fidelity and is key for executing quantum error correction techniques.

Cepheus-1-36Q features scalable chip architecture with 3D signal delivery while incorporating enhancements to key technologies, such as enhanced intermodule coupler design to enable higher performance.

Leveraging our full-stack platform and in-house quantum foundry capabilities, we believe that Cepheus-1-36Q demonstrates our ability to deliver increasingly higher performance quantum computers with larger qubit counts using our proprietary chiplet-based architecture.

We are focused on continuing to improve our system performance.

We recently achieved a two-qubit gate fidelity as high as 99.9% at 28 nanosecond gate speed on a prototype platform by using a new proprietary adiabatic CZ scheme.

We continue to be at 99.9% one-qubit gate fidelity.

In January 2026, we announced achievement of a median two-qubit gate fidelity (based on internal testing) of 99.7% on our 9-qubit system, 99.6% on our 36-qubit system and 99.0% on our 108-qubit system (Cepheus-1-108Q).

Cepheus-1-108Q is based on twelve 9-qubit chiplets and leverages our proprietary modular chip architecture.

In 2025, we received purchase orders for two Novera systems totaling approximately $5.7 million.

Both systems are upgradeable, allowing the customers to increase the system qubit count for more complex computations and research.

Delivery for both systems is expected in the first half of 2026.

In January 2026, Rigetti Computing India P L, a wholly owned subsidiary of Rigetti Computing, Inc., announced that it received an $8.4 million purchase order to deliver a 108-qubit quantum computer to C-DAC.

The system will be installed on-premises at C - DAC’s Bengaluru center and is expected to be deployed in the second half of 2026.

Powered by the production of our scalable multi-chip quantum processors in Fab-1 and our full-stack product development approach, we are working to develop quantum computing systems that demonstrate clear performance advantages over classical computing alternatives for multiple high-impact application areas.

Selling, General and Administrative

Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased by $3.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, when compared to the year ended December 31, 2023.

The decrease for the year ended December 31, 2024, when compared to the year ended December 31, 2023, was primarily due to $2.2 million of expense recognized in the year ended December 31, 2023 for the forward agreement with Ampere Computing and a $0.8 million impairment charge recognized in the year ended December 31, 2023 for deferred offering costs.

Costs related to accounting services and public company compliance decreased by $1.2 million during the year ended December 31, 2024, because many of these activities were either performed more efficiently or have been brought in-house.

These decreases were partially offset by a $1.1 million increase in stock-based compensation expenses for the year ended December 31, 2024.

Stock compensation expenses were favorably impacted during the year ended December 31, 2023 due to forfeitures resulting from the February 2023 restructuring.

All other expenses decreased by a cumulative $0.2 million for year ended December 31, 2024, when compared to the year ended December 31, 2023.

We expect selling, general and administrative expenses to increase over the longer term, particularly after we potentially achieve quantum advantage, and plan to subsequently enhance our sales and service offerings, expand our customer base, and implement new marketing strategies.

Restructuring

In February 2023, we announced an updated business strategy, including revisions to our technology roadmap.

In connection with this updated strategy, we implemented a workforce reduction in order to focus the organization and our resources on nearer-term strategic priorities.

The reduction in the workforce impacted approximately 50 employees or approximately 28% of our then workforce.

Affected employees were offered separation benefits, including severance payments and temporary healthcare coverage assistance.

We began implementing activities with respect to our revised business plan, updated technology roadmap and reduction in workforce in February 2023, resulting in a $1.0 million restructuring charge for the year ended December 31, 2023.

No further restructuring charges related to this action are expected.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $0.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, when compared to the year ended December 31, 2024.

The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses during the year ended December 31, 2025 , when compared to the year ended December 31, 2024, was mainly due to higher costs for proxy distribution and solicitation related to our annual meeting, which was driven by the increase in the number of beneficial owners of our common stock.

In addition, lower bonus expenses were offset by higher stock-based compensation expenses for existing employees and other costs.

We expect to incur additional selling, general and administrative expenses to support the growth of our business.

Further, we expect selling, general and administrative expenses to increase over the longer term, particularly after we potentially achieve quantum advantage, and plan to subsequently enhance our sales and service offerings, expand our customer base, and implement new marketing strategies.

Any such shares held by the Sponsor Holders that remain unvested after the fifth anniversary of the closing of the Business Combination will be forfeited.

The price thresholds for vesting under the sponsor support agreement are $12.50 and $15.00.

The Sponsor Vesting Shares are accounted for as liability classified instruments because the Earn-Out Triggering Events that determine the number of Sponsor Vesting Shares to be earned back by the Sponsor Holders include outcomes that are not solely indexed to our Common Stock.

The Sponsor Vesting Shares were accounted for as liability classified instruments because the Earn-Out Triggering Events that determined the number of Sponsor Vesting Shares to be earned back by the Sponsor Holders include outcomes that were not solely indexed to our Common Stock.

The aggregate fair value of the Sponsor Vesting Shares at the time of the closing of the Business Combination was estimated using a Monte Carlo simulation model and was determined to be $20.4 million.

There are a number of variables impacting the Monte Carlo simulation model used to value the Earn-Out liability.

The most impactful variable is the price of our Common Stock.

The Earn-out liability will correspondingly increase or decrease as the price of our Common Stock increases or decreases.

As of December 31, 2024, the Earn-Out Triggering Events were not achieved for any of the Sponsor Vesting Shares.

As of December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the fair value of the earn-out liabilities was $45.9 million and $2.2 million, respectively, with the change in the fair value of the earn-out liabilities recorded in the consolidated statements of operations each reporting period.

There were a number of variables impacting the Monte Carlo simulation model used to value the earn-out liabilities, with the most impactful being the price of our Common Stock.

Prior to vesting, the earn-out liabilities were adjusted to fair value each reporting period using the Monte Carlo simulation model.

During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Earn-out Triggering Events for each of the Sponsor Redemption-Based Vesting Shares and the Promote Sponsor Vesting Shares were satisfied, and the underlying earn-out liabilities were adjusted to fair value using the closing market price of our Common Stock on their respective vesting dates.

The earn-out liability for the Sponsor Redemption-Based Vesting Shares as of their August 14, 2025, vesting date was $10.4 million.

The earn-out liability for the Promote Sponsor Vesting Shares as of their February 6, 2025, vesting date was $32.9 million.

The earn-out liabilities for the Sponsor Redemption-Based Vesting Shares and the Promote Sponsor Vesting Shares were recorded to additional paid-in capital on their respective vesting dates.

We are also a “smaller reporting company” as defined in the Exchange Act.

We may continue to be a smaller reporting company even after we are no longer an emerging growth company.
