9月24日（路透社）—— 法國量子處理器製造商帕斯卡爾（Pasqal）週四表示，在那斯達克掛牌後，公司持有3.129億歐元（3.558億美元）現金，使其有資金擴大銷售營運；該公司正努力把早期客戶興趣轉化為可持續收入。Sept 24 (Reuters) - French quantum processor maker Pasqal on Thursday said it held €312.9 million ($355.8 million) in cash following its Nasdaq listing, giving it funds to expand sales operations as it works to convert early customer interest into sustainable revenue.

該公司表示，將主要利用這筆新增資金擴大商務與技術銷售團隊、推進技術發展，並在2027年和2028年提高產能。The company said it would use the fresh capital primarily to expand commercial and technical-sales teams, advance its technology and increase production capacity in 2027 and 2028.

帕斯卡爾目前營運7台量子處理器，部署於客戶據點與內部研究計畫；其位於巴黎近郊及加拿大的設施，每年可生產13台設備。Pasqal currently operates seven quantum processors, deployed across customer sites and internal research programmes, and has annual production capacity for 13 machines at facilities near Paris and in Canada.

該公司直接向大型企業與資料中心銷售設備，同時也透過 Google Cloud 和 Microsoft Azure 銷售按使用時間計費的設備存取服務。其客戶包括沙烏地阿拉伯阿美公司（Aramco）和法國農業信貸銀行（Crédit Agricole）。It sells machines directly to large companies and data centres, while also selling time-based access to its machine through Google Cloud and Microsoft Azure. Its clients include Saudi's Aramco and Crédit Agricole .

帕斯卡爾表示，設備銷售從簽約到交付可能需時逾12個月；雲端服務收入則在客戶使用平台時認列。Machine sales can take more than 12 months from contract signing to delivery, while revenue from cloud-based services is recognised as customers use the platform, Pasqal said.

漫長的銷售週期意味著，取得訂單與認列收入之間可能有顯著時間差。帕斯卡爾公布上半年營收490萬歐元，成長14%；已簽約及已獲授業務金額為7040萬歐元，這項指標涵蓋補助、稅額抵減及多年期客戶合約。The lengthy sales cycle means there can be a significant lag between securing an order and recognising revenue. Pasqal reported first-half revenue of 4.9 million euros, up 14%, and 70.4 million euros in booked and awarded business, a measure that includes grants, tax credits and multi-year customer contracts.

其營業虧損從一年前的1980萬歐元擴大至5920萬歐元，其中包括3750萬歐元的股份基礎給付及掛牌相關成本。Its operating loss widened to 59.2 million euros from 19.8 million euros a year earlier, including 37.5 million euros in share-based payments and listing-related costs.
