D-Wave CEO Dr. Alan Baratz Discusses Company's Technical and Commercial Momentum on Fox Business' The Claman Countdown
PALO ALTO, Calif., May 12, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--D-Wave Quantum Inc. (NYSE: QBTS) ("D-Wave" or the "Company"), a leader in quantum computing systems, software, and services, announced that CEO Dr. Alan Baratz was interviewed on Fox Business' The Claman Countdown on Friday, May 9, 2025, where he discussed the company's recent technical and commercial achievements.
During the interview, Dr. Baratz discussed D-Wave's recent quantum supremacy demonstration, which showed that its Advantage2 quantum computer outperformed one of the world's most powerful supercomputers on a complex real-world materials simulation problem. He noted that "that work caught the attention of the supercomputer community and national labs around the world with a realization that these systems could be used to do some very interesting deep research into new areas." He further noted that "these (system sales) are long lead time sales cycles because of the fact that systems are quite pricey, anywhere from $20-$40 million for a system."
D-Wave believes that annealing quantum computing is emerging as the critical accelerant to commercial adoption of quantum computing. The technology is uniquely suited for real-world optimization problems, which are widespread throughout the modern enterprise.

Lead Plaintiff Deadline is June 16, 2025 for Investors of Ibotta, Inc.
NEW YORK, NY - June 8, 2025 ( NEWMEDIAWIRE ) - Kaplan Fox & Kilsheimer LLP announces that a class action lawsuit has been filed against Ibotta, Inc. ('Ibotta' or the 'Company') (NYSE: IBTA) on behalf of Ibotta investors. CLICK HERE TO JOIN THE CASE If you are an investor in Ibotta and have suffered losses, you may CLICK HERE to contact us. You may also contact Kaplan Fox by emailing [email protected] or by calling (646) 315-9003. DEADLINE REMINDER: If you are a member of the proposed Class, you may move the court no later than June 16, 2025 to serve as a lead plaintiff for the purported class. If you have losses we encourage you to contact us to learn more about the lead plaintiff process. You need not seek to become a lead plaintiff in order to share in any possible recovery. Ibotta purports to be a technology company that allows consumer packaged goods brands to deliver digital promotions to consumers through the Ibotta Performance Network. On April 18, 2024, Ibotta conducted its Initial Public Offering ('IPO'), offering 6,560,700 million shares of Class A common stock at a price of $88 per share. The complaint alleges that throughout the Class Period, Defendants made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that; (i) Ibotta's data measurement system did not provide accurate, precise, and real time client campaign and consumer data measurement; (ii) the Company's business mix had shifted and was generating less revenue; and (iii) Ibotta had 'exhausted' its clients' budgets, negatively impacting fourth quarter 2024 revenue and expected first quarter 2025 revenue. According to the action, on February 26, 2025, after market hours, in connection with reporting fourth quarter 2024 and full year 2024 financial results, Ibotta's CEO Bryan W. Leach ('CEO Leach') explained just how deficient Ibotta's data measurement technology was by stating that 'it has become clear that we need to bring to market a more rigorous form of measurement that goes beyond the industry standard return on ad spend, or ROAS, framework.' Further CEO Leach allegedly announced that Ibotta would transform into a programmatic advertising company, which according to the complaint demonstrates that, at the time of the IPO, Ibotta's data measurement infrastructure was not suited for heavy reliance on third party platforms. On this news, the price of Ibotta's stock fell $29.08, or nearly 46%, to close at $34.09 on February 27, 2025, more than 60% lower than the IPO price of $88 per share.
