Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.
On August 13, 2025, D-Wave Quantum Inc. (“D-Wave”) announced that it is hosting its first-ever Qubits Japan 2025 quantum computing user conference in Tokyo on September 17 to support growing interest and adoption of annealing quantum computing technology across the Asia Pacific (APAC) region. Themed “Quantum Realized,” Qubits Japan 2025 will feature presentations from D-Wave executives, customers, and thought leaders that showcase how D-Wave’s quantum technology is already delivering tangible value today.

The event comes as D-Wave’s bookings in the APAC region are up 83% over the past 12 months. APAC customers are increasingly exploring, adopting, and using D-Wave’s annealing quantum computing technology to solve complex challenges spanning artificial intelligence (AI)/machine learning and business optimization problems.

D-Wave’s recent customer highlights in the APAC region include an agreement to facilitate a pilot project with Japan Tobacco Inc. related to the companies’ joint work in quantum AI drug discovery, completion of an optimization pilot by NTT DOCOMO Inc., Japan’s largest mobile phone operator, using D-Wave’s annealing quantum computing solutions, and a strategic relationship with Yonsei University and Incheon Metropolitan City to accelerate the exploration, adoption and usage of quantum computing in South Korea and to facilitate the organizations’ efforts towards the acquisition of a D-Wave Advantage2™ system at the Yonsei University International Campus. A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1.

The information in this Item 7.01 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, including Exhibit 99.1, is intended to be furnished and shall not be deemed to be “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall such information be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.
