Japan Names 2025 as Quantum Industrialization Year Japan's Ministry of Economy, Trade, and Industry will invest $335 million to scale its domestic quantum ecosystem. The program will fund more than 10 companies, including Fujitsu (FJTSY) and KDDI (KDDIY). The goal is to back both hardware and software, with support for superconducting and optical-based quantum systems. Fujitsu is developing superconducting qubits, while the University of Tokyo is advancing optical architectures with lower power demands. The government aims to position Japan as a global standard-setter in quantum software, where no dominant player has emerged yet. Also, a new facility, G-QuAT, will serve as a business and research hub to support collaboration and workforce training. Xanadu and HyperLight Advance Low-Loss Quantum Photonics Xanadu, a Canada-based quantum computing hardware and software company, and HyperLight reported a hardware milestone in photonic quantum computing. The two companies have demonstrated thin-film lithium niobate chips with waveguide losses below 2 dB/m and switch losses around 20 millidecibels. These metrics are among the lowest ever reported and support Xanadu's roadmap toward utility-scale quantum systems. The chips were fabricated in a high-volume semiconductor plant and will be used in future versions of Xanadu's Aurora system. Xanadu's platform is based on fiber-networked photonic qubits and does not rely on cryogenic cooling. Quantum Art Hits 200-Ion Milestone in Trapped-Ion Chain Quantum Art, an Israeli startup focused on trapped-ion quantum systems, has achieved a 200-ion linear chain using precision trap engineering and cryogenic controls. The result enables stable operation across long ion registers, which are needed for scalable quantum logic. The company is developing a 50-qubit system for commercial launch and a 1,000-qubit platform expected in 2027. The system design avoids shuttling or photonic interconnects by using optically segmented cores that run in parallel. Classiq Secures Funding from SoftBank and CDP Venture Capital Classiq, another quantum software company based in Israel, expanded its Series C round with new investments from SoftBank Vision Fund 2 (SFTBY) and CDP Venture Capital. SoftBank's R&D team validated the company's ability to optimize high-performance quantum circuits. The capital will support product development and expansion into finance, energy, and life sciences. Classiq's platform enables enterprise developers to create and run complex quantum algorithms without needing to manage hardware-specific code. Horizon Quantum Joins QuEra Alliance for Software-Hardware Integration Singapore-based Horizon Quantum Computing has joined the QuEra Quantum Alliance to improve software tools for neutral-atom quantum systems. While QuEra is one of the notable players in neutral-atom quantum computing, Horizon develops automated algorithm synthesis and compilation tools that let users write quantum programs using conventional programming methods. QuEra's platform uses arrays of neutral atoms for scalable quantum processing and does not require ion traps or photonic links. The alliance now includes over 25 members and continues to grow across North America, Europe, and Asia-Pacific. We used the TipRanks' Comparison Tool to line up some of the top quantum stocks with a few names mentioned in this piece. It's an easy way to see how they compare and get a feel for where the space might be going.

Xanadu Selected for Prestigious Canadian Defence Program to Pioneer Next-Generation Battery R&D
TORONTO, July 30, 2025 /CNW/ - Xanadu, a global leader in quantum computing hardware and software, today announced its selection for Round 1 of the highly-competitive "IDEaS NORAD Modernization S&T Contest," an initiative by Innovation for Defence Excellence and Security (IDEaS) within Canada's Department of National Defence (DND). This selection underscores Xanadu's innovative capabilities in pioneering quantum algorithms for advanced battery design, a crucial step towards strengthening North America's defences against evolving aerospace and maritime threats, particularly in extreme environments. The IDEaS NORAD Modernization S&T Contest aims to foster groundbreaking solutions to modernize the science and technology portfolio of NORAD, the North American Aerospace Defense Command. Xanadu will receive an initial grant of $1,000,000 CAD to design quantum computing algorithms and methodologies for next-generation battery development. The goal is to advance the methods needed to design new batteries that are highly resilient to extreme conditions, including dramatic temperature changes, strong mechanical pressures, and radiation exposure. "We are honoured to be chosen for this groundbreaking program," said Juan Miguel Arrazola, Director of Quantum Algorithms. "Our work will focus on developing quantum algorithms to simulate battery mechanisms that lead to degradation performance under extreme conditions, such as ultra-low temperatures. The goal is to identify how quantum computers can lead to the development of more resilient batteries, unlocking new capabilities across defence, industry, and science." Xanadu's proposed project directly addresses two key IDEaS challenge topics: enhancing Arctic mobility and navigation of military platforms, and accelerating the development of quantum technologies. The Arctic is an increasingly important geostrategic region for North American defence, and current battery technologies struggle in its remote and extreme weather conditions, limiting the effectiveness of autonomous and remotely piloted systems. Xanadu's quantum-enabled simulations will help overcome the limitations of classical computing methods, enabling the design of batteries that can withstand these harsh environments. This project builds on Xanadu's extensive expertise and prior work in using quantum algorithms to simulate the design of new materials. This commitment to innovation will not only strengthen Canada's defence capabilities, but also enable breakthroughs with far-reaching implications for clean energy, transportation, and scientific exploration, demonstrating the transformative potential of quantum computing for a safer and more sustainable future.

Quarterly Activities Report
for the three months ended 30 June 2025 (figures are unaudited and in A$ except where stated) TORONTO, July 29, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — June 2025 Quarter During the Quarter ending 30 June 2025 (June Quarter), Xanadu Mines Ltd (Xanadu or the Company) focused on strategic funding options to progress the Kharmagtai Copper and Gold Project (Kharmagtai). This resulted in an off-market takeover bid from Bastion Mining Pty Ltd (Bastion), which the Board recommended to shareholders. At the time of this report, Bastion has acquired a relevant interest exceeding 90% of Xanadu shares and issued a Notice of Compulsory Acquisition for all remaining shares outstanding1. Key Highlights: Executive Chairman & Managing Director, Colin Moorhead, said: 'The transaction with Bastion is an important milestone on the journey for both the Kharmagtai Project and for Xanadu. This event also successfully concludes the company strategy to deliver a liquidity event for Xanadu shareholders to unlock value from the Kharmagtai discovery. Given the scale and complexity of the project, the challenging jurisdiction, and the added complexity of a 50:50 JV with a Chinese partner, I am very proud of this achievement and thank the team for their efforts, and shareholders for their support. Looking forward, I expect Kharmagtai to be the next major mine to be built in Mongolia and an important producer of copper to the world. We wish Bastion and Zijin both success in moving this project rapidly to production.' Corporate Transaction On 7 April 2025, the Company undertook an exclusivity arrangement with its major shareholder and joint venture partner Zijin Mining Group Co. Ltd (Zijin), to allow the parties to discuss a range of potential corporate transactions11. This arrangement also extended the term of the potential option to allow the Company to dispose of a 25% interest in Khuiten Metals Pte Ltd (25% Put Option). Following substantive discussions with Zijin, on 5 May 2025 Xanadu reported that the parties had been unable to finalise a control transaction within the exclusivity period and that the Company would recommence discussions with other interested parties12. The 25% Put Option was subsequently withdrawn from the resolutions at the proposed Extraordinary General Meeting (EGM) scheduled for 4 June 2025 and the meeting was cancelled13. On 19 May 2025, the Company announced that it had entered into a Bid Implementation Agreement with Bastion Mining Pte Ltd (Bastion) under which Bastion made an off-market takeover offer to acquire all the fully paid, ordinary shares issued in Xanadu (Xanadu Shares) which Bastion did not already own, at a price of A$0.08 cash per Xanadu Share (Offer) 14 15 16 17 18 19. The Offer was made by Bastion, which represents a consortium of Boroo Pte Ltd (Boroo) and Xanadu Director Ganbayar Lkhagvasuren (together, the Bid Sponsors). Boroo is a private Singapore-incorporated entity which invests in major gold projects internationally. Boroo key assets include Lagunas Norte, a producing gold mine in Peru and a portfolio of development-stage projects in South America. Boroo has guaranteed Bastion's obligations as bidder under the Bid Implementation Agreement. In the Bastion Bidders Statement20, the bidder cited the significant premium to historic market prices for Xanadu shares and the substantial value of the offer at A$160 million for Xanadu Mines, at the high end of the valuation prepared by BDO. The Bidders Statement also noted the removal of exposure to risks associated to being invested in a Company with a non-operating minority join partner, and associated development risks. Xanadu's Takeover Board Committee21, together with Xanadu's legal and financial advisers, carefully considered the Offer. The Takeover Board Committee Directors unanimously recommended that Xanadu shareholders ACCEPT the Offer in the absence of a superior proposal and subject to the Independent Expert concluding (and continuing to conclude) that the Offer is fair and reasonable. The Board noted in its Target's Statement22 that Bastion's Offer has been made following the hard work and success of the Xanadu team in advancing the Kharmagtai Copper-Gold Project (Kharmagtai) over the last 5 years. The release of the Pre-Feasibility Study (PFS) in October 2024 and declaration of a maiden ore reserve was a significant milestone for the Company and confirmed the potential of Kharmagtai as a globally significant, long life, low cost and low risk future copper-gold mine. As the next step for Xanadu, through its Bidder's Statement, Bastion indicated an intent to delist Xanadu from both ASX and TSX exchanges should it reach a relevant interest of more than 75%. Bastion further indicated its intent to acquire all remaining shares in Xanadu via compulsory acquisition, should it reach an interest of more than 90%. As the next phase for Kharmagtai is to secure the project's permitting and Mongolian investment agreement pathway. In that regard, Boroo's considerable in-country experience will be invaluable for driving the engagement process, making Bastion a natural choice as the new owner of Xanadu and partner to Zijin Mining Group Co. Ltd (Zijin). With Zijin now responsible for the operatorship of Kharmagtai and, recognising Xanadu's profile as an exploration-focused company with limited balance sheet strength to fund its share of the very significant capital required to progress development of the project, the Takeover Board Committee noted that it considers that now is the appropriate time to provide a liquidity event for Xanadu Shareholders. Subsequent to the quarter, Bastion gave notice that it had extended its Offer23 to now close at 7pm Sydney time on 5 August 2025 (unless further extended or withdrawn). The Takeover Board Committee reiterated its unanimous recommendation that Xanadu Shareholders ACCEPT the Offer as soon as practicable (in the absence of a superior proposal and subject to the Independent Expert continuing to conclude that the Offer is fair and reasonable). This recommendation outlined the potential risks to liquidity and value of shares held if the Offer closes and Bastion is not entitled to proceed to the compulsory acquisition. On 25 July, Bastion announced that following acceptances of its Offer to date, it held relevant interest greater than 90% of Xanadu shares and issued a Notice of Compulsory Acquisition for the remaining shares outstanding24. Operations During the quarter, Xanadu maintained its three projects at operational care & maintenance status, which included Kharmagtai (operated by Zijin), the Red Mountain Copper-Gold Project, and the Sant Tolgoi Copper-Nickel Project. At Kharmagtai, technical discussions continued in preparation for the Bankable Feasibility Study (BFS), and both local community and regulatory engagement programs continued as planned. No exploration activity was undertaken during the quarter. Figure 1: Location of Xanadu Projects in Mongolia Financial and Corporate Capital Structure On 30 June 2025, the Company had 2,291,211,189 fully paid ordinary shares on issue and approximately A$18.532 million in cash. During the Quarter, the Company advised that 92,184,000 fully paid ordinary shares were issued to exercising option holders or their nominees following a Change of Control event which resulted in the waiving of all Vesting and Restriction conditions in accordance with the terms of the options issue25. Equity Funding Arrangements To assist Xanadu in meeting its corporate and joint venture funding obligations during the Offer period, Bastion and Xanadu entered into a share subscription agreement under which Bastion agreed to subscribe for 286,829,633 Xanadu Shares at an issue price of A$0.06 per share.26 The issue of the Subscription Shares took place on 26 May 2025 and were issued under Xanadu's available placement capacity pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.1.27 Xanadu received a cash sum of A$17.2 million for the Subscription Shares; and immediately following settlement, Bastion held a relevant interest in 13.04% of Xanadu Shares. Shareholder Meetings An Extraordinary General Meeting (EGM) was scheduled for 11 April 2025 to vote on the exercise of the 25% put option in respect of Khuiten Metals Pte Ltd and to ratify prior issue of shares. The put option resolution was withdrawn after announcement of exclusivity arrangements with Zijin and extension of the put option exercise period.28 The Annual General Meeting (AGM) was held on 22 May 2025, with all resolutions approved by shareholders.29 A second EGM was scheduled for 4 June 2025 to vote on the 25% put option, after conclusion of the exclusivity period with Zijin. This resolution was withdrawn and the EGM was cancelled after completion of the equity placement to Bastion and commencement of the off-market takeover bid period.30 Director Resignation Subsequent to the Quarter and following sale of Zijin shares into the Offer, Zijin's nominee Shaoyang Shen resigned from the Board of Xanadu.31 Note that Zijin retains its 50% shareholding in the Khuiten Metals Pte Ltd, the entity which controls Kharmagtai.
