AI Summary

6.0

Neutral

IonQ has shifted from a pure “science” story to a hybrid growth-stage platform with real, accelerating commercial revenue and a large cash buffer, but investors must treat it as a high-risk, capital‑intensive scaling play where widening losses and dilution remain the dominant near‑term threats; monitor quarter-to-quarter cash burn, adjusted EBITDA trends, and repeatable Tempo/256‑qubit deliveries as concrete triggers to accumulate. If revenue converts into sustained positive adjusted EBITDA or cash burn meaningfully slows, re-rate upwards; conversely, missed delivery cadence or a need for dilutive raises would justify fresh downside.
