D-Wave Quantum Inc. (QBTS)
NasdaqGS · Price as of · Nasdaq Real Time Price
- Profitability6/20
Losing money but improving: $-151.0M over the last four reported quarters versus $-398.8M the year before.
- Insider buying vs selling11/20
Insiders are sellers only: 6 sells worth $6.7M, no open-market buys, across the last 20 Form 4s. Routine executive selling is common, so this is only a mild negative. Separately, 2 new 5%+ stake disclosures (13D/13G) hit in the last 6 months, which is big-money accumulation.
- Dilution and offerings6/15
Share count up 9.1% in a year plus 3 offering-related filings. Real dilution. One nuance: offerings raise cash that can fund real growth. The score docks the certain near-term dilution; if the spending pays off, it shows up later in the profitability component.
