01 Quantum Reports Third Quarter 2025 Results and Provides an Update on Business Developments

Rebranding to 01 Quantum Inc. Completed Strategic Alliance with qLABS Commercial Deployments Underway Revenue Growth Expected - Q4 2025 Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - September 18, 2025) - 01 Quantum Inc., (TSXV: ONE) (OTCQB: OONEF) formerly 01 Communique Laboratory Inc., ("01 Quantum" or the "Company"), one of the first-to-market, enterprise level cybersecurity providers for the quantum computing era, is pleased to report the Company's third quarter fiscal 2025 results for the period ended July 31, 2025 and provide an update on recent business developments. CEO Commentary "So far in 2025, we have made substantial strides in advancing our business and establishing a strong foundation for ongoing revenue growth. The transition to our new name, 01 Quantum Inc., is more than rebranding it underscores our commitment to quantum-safe cybersecurity, strengthens our marketing efforts, and enhances industry recognition," said Andrew Cheung, CEO of 01 Quantum. "We are now at a pivotal moment, as commercial applications embedding our IronCAP™ technology begin to roll out. Recent partnerships are opening new markets and diversified revenue streams. Our business model is built on a combination of development fees with ongoing royalties from deployed applications; in the case of qLABS a share of proceeds from token sale, and a percentage of the quantum-safe tokens issued. The development aspects of these projects generate positive cash flow with revenue recognized as milestones are achieved. We anticipate profitable revenue recognition in the fourth quarter 2025 and first quarter 2026 from these projects as we and our partners move forward with launching the completed applications." Operational Highlights Rebranding to 01 Quantum Inc. September 10, 2025 - Shareholders voted overwhelmingly in favor of rebranding to 01 Quantum Inc., with 99.9% of votes cast voting in favor. The new name reflects the Company's sharpened focus on quantum-resilient cybersecurity solutions. Strategic alliance with qLABS. On July 29, 2025 the Company signed a strategic alliance agreement with qLABS Press-release-July-29-2025.pdf), a newly launched crypto foundation focused on developing quantum-safe tokens secured on existing blockchains. Under the agreement, The Company receives one-time development fees based on milestones achieved, a share of proceeds from token sale and a percentage of the founders' token pool. As quantum computing advances, it threatens the cryptographic systems that secure digital wallets, transactions, and smart contracts. qLABS was formed in anticipation of these risks and will serve as a launchpad for quantum-safe solutions developed in collaboration with 01 Quantum. The collaboration leverages advanced, patent-pending Quantum Crypto Wrapper (QCW) technology (US #63/832787) to retrofit public blockchains with quantum-resilient cryptography using IronCAP™ and novel zero-knowledge proof mechanisms. According to CoinMarketCap the global crypto market is now valued at $3.8 trillion (including stablecoins). With this $3.8 trillion crypto ecosystem potentially vulnerable to "Q-Day," this initiative targets a massive market opportunity. Development is underway and as milestones are achieved throughout the fourth quarter the Company expects to generate positive cash flows, with revenue recognized as each technical milestone is met. PQC enabled zero-trust remote access solution. The Company entered into an agreement with a major Japanese global systems integrator for the co-development of a post-quantum cryptography (PQC) version of a zero-trust remote access application. https://01com.com/pdf/2025/Release-PQC-Remote-Access.pdf. The Company receives a one-time development fee, expected to be recognized in fourth quarter 2025, and a royalty based on revenue generated from the PQC-enabled application going forward. Development is well underway with a commercial release date planned for the first quarter 2026. IronCAP X™ Commercialization Strategic partnership agreement signed with Turnium Technology Group Inc. (TTGI), a leader in Technology-as-a-Service (TaaS), aimed at expanding the reach of quantum-safe cybersecurity solutions. As a first step, with more to come, TTGI will offer 01 Quantum's IronCAP X™ PQC email service leveraging TTGI's extensive network and expertise in delivering secure, scalable technology solutions. This partnership addresses the need for future-proof communication tools in industries such as finance, healthcare, and government, where data integrity and privacy are paramount. Patent Application for PQC- Compliant AI March 2025 - Filed a U.S. Patent Application for the underlying technology supporting the Company's PQC-compliant AI platform. Development is continuing ahead of schedule. A proof of concept ("PoC") demonstration of the platform is planned for later this year. Financial Highlights: The Company ended the quarter with $1,076,325 of cash and securities. Net loss for the third quarter was $351,411 (2024 - $40,173). The adjusted loss which excludes stock-based compensation and depreciation, which are non-cash expenses, was $269,939 (2024 - $5,891). Revenue for the third quarter was $143,957 (2024 - $126,103). Revenue was primarily derived from licenses associated with ongoing recurring subscription fees from the Company's legacy remote access service. Going forward commencing with the fourth quarter which ends October 31st, revenue is expected to come from the Company's PQC technology initiatives which includes development fees and royalties. Profitable development fee revenue is expected to be recognized in the fourth quarter 2025 from current projects underway. Cash operating expenses which exclude stock-based compensation and depreciation for the third quarter were $407,292 (2024 - $119,335). Selling, general and administrative, net of stock-based compensation was $207,746 (2024 - $88,860). Research and development was 201,018 (2024 - $34,538). The increase in expenses reflects an investment to increase the value of the Company by expanding its investor relations and marketing programs to increase awareness for the Company in both the financial and business communities, as well as increased headcount in product development. The product development increase includes costs associated with patent filings as well as costs associated with the increase in head count required to support its product roadmap which includes the Company's PQC enabled AI platform, qLABS initiative, and PQC zero-trust remote access application.
