01 Quantum Reports Fiscal Third Quarter 2026 Results and Highlights Momentum Across PQC and Secure AI Markets TORONTO, ON – September 10, 2026. 01 Quantum Inc. (“01 Quantum” or the "Company") (TSX-V: ONE; OTCQB: OONEF), one of the first -to-market, enterprise level cybersecurity providers for the quantum computing era, today provided an operational update and reported financial results for its fiscal third quarter 2026, which ended July 31 st, 2026. The quarter saw strong capital management, additional partnerships with systems integrators, the addition of a Technology Partnership Agreement with Crypto4A, and continued progress across a portfolio of application ready post -quantum cryptography (“PQC”) technologies. “This quarter continued to demonstrate the progress we are making through new partnerships and independent validation of our technologies ,” said Andrew Cheung, CEO of 01 Quantum. “We received an independent validation from Carleton University for our Quantum AI Wrapper ( “QAW”) technologies, demonstrating how we can efficiently provide an AI operations platform while preserving user data privacy. Our agreement with a leading Canadian global system integrator, together with our Technology Partnership Agreement with Crypto4A, broadens our distribution channels across enterprise, financial services, government, and defense verticals. During the year , we completed two important customer funded development projects. With these projects successfully completed and the related products commercially available, our partners have commenced sales and marketing activities, and under existing agreements , the Company will receive previously agreed upon royalties based on revenue generated. Combined with our current cash position and disciplined cash management, we are positioned to continue advancing our R&D and marketing efforts. We have built our commercialization framework based on validated technology, real world applications, sector driven demand , and credible Tier-1 partners. These foundations support durable adoption of our platforms and place 01 Quantum in a meaningful position as governments and enterprises transition to quantum-resilient cybersecurity and secure AI execution.” Operational Updates and Pipeline Growth During the quarter, 01 Quantum advanced several key initiatives: Agreement with Global Systems Integrator . As announced on June 10, 2026 , the Company signed a strategic commercialization agreement with a leading Canadian global IT and business consulting integrator. This agreement serves as a major distribution catalyst, establishing a structured channel for introducing 01 Quantum’s PQC and secure AI offerings into large-scale digital infrastructure modernization initiatives across enterprise and public sector accounts. Technology Partnership with Crypto4A . As announced on July 15, 2026 , the Company entered into a Technology Partnership Agreement with Crypto4A , an Ottawa -based global Hardware Security Module (HSM) vendor, to coordinate market engagement, customer introductions, and co -marketing initiatives focused on quantum -safe modernization. The partnership aligns 01 Quantum’s PQC and secure AI capabilities with Crypto4A’s expertise in cryptographic agility, secure key management, and high-assurance infrastructure. Independent Technical Validation. As announced on July 28, 2026, academic work released by Carleton University reinforced that 01 Quantum’s QAW technologies are suitable for privacy-preserved AI operations. This validation supports the Company’s strategy of wrapping its technologies around secure AI operations.
