QTEX — 6 Month Price History

Daily OHLC

Executive Summary

QTREX Quantum (QTEX) gained +17% on continued momentum from a quantum computing partnership announced in June. This name has appeared in our scanner multiple times — each time driven by a 'collaboration' or 'partnership' announcement that creates a short-term pump.

Financial reality: $290K revenue, zero gross profit, ($13.6M) operating loss. Five consecutive years of $11-15M annual losses with no revenue to show for it. The company has no meaningful product, no customer contracts, and no differentiated IP in quantum computing.

Avoid. This is a hype-driven nano cap trading on the quantum computing narrative with nothing backing it financially.

Business Model & Revenue

QTREX Quantum Ltd. claims to be a quantum computing company. Revenue: $290K (FY2025). Operating Loss: ($13.6M). No meaningful products, customers, or competitive position in quantum computing.

Competitive Landscape

Quantum computing is dominated by IBM, Google, Rigetti, IonQ (public), and D-Wave. QTEX has no competitive position in this space.

Catalysts

"No real catalysts. Each 'partnership' or 'collaboration' announcement generates a short-term pump that fades. The quantum computing narrative drives retail speculation."

Key Risks

  • $290K revenue, zero gross profit, ($13.6M) operating loss.
  • Five consecutive years of $11-15M annual losses.
  • Recurring scanner appearances — each 'partnership' announcement creates a pump-and-fade pattern.
  • No meaningful quantum computing IP, hardware, or competitive position.
  • Quantum computing is 10+ years from commercial viability.
  • No analyst coverage, no institutional following.

Our Thesis

QTEX has been pumping on quantum computing partnership announcements since at least January 2026. Each announcement generates a short-term price spike (often 50-100%+) followed by a decline. This is classic promotional micro cap behavior — release 'breakthrough partnership' news, let momentum traders pump the stock, volume spikes, then the price fades.

The financials are among the worst in our coverage: $290K revenue in FY2025 (up from literally $0 in prior years, but meaningless), zero gross margin, ($13.6M) operating loss, ($12-15M) annual losses every single year. SG&A ($6.1M) and R&D ($7.5M) consume cash on a company with no revenue.

Quantum computing is real technology, but it's 10+ years from commercial viability. Companies like IBM, Google, and Rigetti are investing billions. QTEX has no meaningful quantum computing IP, no hardware, and no competitive position. Avoid.
