TORONTO, May 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ – Xanadu Quantum Technologies Limited (“Xanadu” or the “Company”; (Nasdaq: XNDU) (TSX: XNDU), a leading photonic quantum computing company, today announced that it has entered into a synthetic at-the-market equity facility for up to $300 million (the “Program”) with YA II PN, Ltd. (“Yorkville Advisors”). The Company intends to use the net proceeds, if any, for working capital and general corporate purposes.

The Program provides Xanadu with the ability, but not the obligation, to issue and sell to Yorkville Advisors up to $300 million of its Class B subordinate voting shares in private placements over a term of three years, subject to certain limitations and conditions in the Standby Equity Purchase Agreement between Xanadu and Yorkville Advisors dated May 20, 2026 (the “SEPA”). The Company expects to access the Program opportunistically, based on prevailing market conditions and valuation levels it believes to be favorable to shareholder value.

Any net proceeds from the Program will be received directly by the Company. The Program consists exclusively of treasury offerings by the Company, with no secondary sales by existing shareholders. In connection with the launch of the Program, the Company plans to file a registration statement on Form F-1 with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), to qualify the re-sale of shares issued pursuant to the Program by Yorkville Advisors in accordance with applicable U.S. securities laws.

“The Program will provide us with efficient and flexible access to capital as we continue scaling and executing on our long-term roadmap towards fault-tolerant quantum computing,” said Michael Trzupek, Chief Financial Officer of Xanadu. “Our objective is to strategically and prudently tap the equity market to enable us to remain well-positioned to fund our growth strategy.”

A copy of the SEPA will be filed with the SEC (www.sec.gov) and the Canadian Securities Administrators (the “CSA”) (www.sedarplus.com). The descriptions contained in this press release are summaries only, do not purport to be complete, and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the agreement furnished as an exhibit to the Company’s Form 6-K filed with the SEC as of this date.

This press release does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of offers to buy any securities of Xanadu, and shall not constitute an offer, solicitation or sale of any security in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction.
