RNS Number : 6942H  Quantum Base Holdings PLC  17 November 2025

17 November 2025

 

Quantum Base Holdings plc

("Quantum Base" or the "Company")

Partnership with Customer #2

 

Quantum Base (AIM: QUBE), the quantum science company focused on creating a
new global standard in authentication, is pleased to announce that it has
signed an agreement with Customer #2 (the "Agreement"), a startup creating a
global art registry.

The Agreement is a comprehensive 15-year deal with exclusivity in the art
market, worth a total value of £9.4 million. This includes revenues of
£135,000 in FY2026, with expected annual recurring revenue ("ARR") growing
incrementally from £175,000 in 2027 to £880,000 in 2032 onwards, with
additional scope for extension.

Under the terms of the Agreement, Customer #2 will implement Q-IDs on each
piece of art that is managed through its registry, enabling seamless
authentication through the integration of Quantum Base's software into its
app. This will provide 100% unbreakable quantum security that protects against
forgery and creates a verified record of ownership.

The partnership also marks the first practical application of the Company's
Q-RAND technology, a nanoscale quantum random number generator. While
conventional electronics rely on pseudo random numbers, which can be predicted
and exploited, Q-RAND harnesses the laws of quantum physics to generate truly
unpredictable, unbreakable encryption keys. Using Q-RAND together with Q-ID
allows fully random human- and machine-readable codes to be integrated,
preventing nefarious parties from predicting the codes used, and ensuring the
highest level of security for sensitive applications.

Tom Taylor, CEO of Quantum Base, commented:

"I am delighted to announce a significant new partnership with Customer #2,
the company building a global art platform powered by Quantum Base
authentication. Quantum Base was selected for our unique, fully secure,
physical unclonable functions, which can be verified instantly using a
standard smartphone. Our Q-ID and Q-RAND technology is enabling an entirely
new business model that creates substantial value for artists, collectors and
the wider art ecosystem. We look forward to working closely with Customer #2
to realise the full potential of our IP in the art market."

"This contract is further market validation of our innovative science and
supports our FY2026 revenue expectations. It also builds on the visibility of
ARR in FY2027 and beyond, as we work on the required conversion of our
pipeline to also secure delivery of our FY2027."

About Quantum Base

Quantum Base is a quantum science company creating a new global standard in
authentication through its patented Q-ID solution - unbreakable and
non-replicable authenticity tags that can be applied to a vast array of
products, significantly mitigating counterfeiting.

The technology underpinning Q-IDs harnesses randomness at the atomic level,
and this volume and variation ensure that there is virtually an infinite
number of combinations that can be created. The Q-ID is practically impossible
to replicate using even the most advanced available technology.

Q-IDs can be applied to almost any print line and can be entirely
non-intrusive to a product's existing design, meaning that they can be
utilised in a vast number of end markets. The authentication process to
identify printed tags is undertaken using existing and unmodified smartphone
technology, providing easy authentication and proven security for global
brands, governments and consumers.
