Arqit Quantum Inc. announced preliminary financial results for the second half and full fiscal year 2026, reporting revenue of approximately $355,000 to $380,000 for H2 FY 2026, down from $463,000 in H2 FY 2025. The full fiscal year revenue is expected to be between $975,000 and $1,000,000, an increase from $530,000 in FY 2025. The decline in H2 revenue was attributed to the cessation of revenue recognition under a significant contract with a Middle Eastern customer, impacted by geopolitical events. Arqit signed three new contracts for its Encryption Intelligence solution, which will drive revenue in FY 2027. Additionally, on October 6, 2026, Arqit secured a contract with NATO for secure networking services, which includes a one-year base period and two renewal options. The company ended the fiscal year with approximately $51 million in cash and cash equivalents, a significant increase from previous periods. These results indicate both challenges and growth potential for Arqit in the evolving cybersecurity landscape.
