Arqit Quantum is trading at $21.36, down 5.25%, after forecasting lower second-half revenue following the end of revenue recognition under a material Middle East customer contract.

  • Preliminary fiscal 2026 revenue is estimated at $975,000–$1,000,000, versus $530,000 in fiscal 2025.
  • Second-half revenue is expected at $355,000–$380,000, down from $463,000 a year earlier.
  • Broader markets were weaker amid rising oil prices and Treasury yields; no source explicitly linked those pressures to Arqit Quantum’s decline.
