Expert Statements
Hugues Meyrath, Chief Executive Officer of Quantum
“This quarter marked our fourth consecutive quarter of sequential revenue growth and our second quarter of non-GAAP profitability. These results underscore the meaningful progress we have made over the past year in strengthening execution, improving our financial position, and positioning Quantum for sustainable growth.”
Hugues Meyrath, Chief Executive Officer of Quantum
“Revenue grew 42.9% year-over-year and 11% sequentially to more than $89.6 million, driven by strong demand across our secondary storage portfolio. We ended the quarter with a record backlog of nearly $100 million, and we also secured one of the most significant purchase orders in the Company’s history — a major hyperscale deployment of our Scalar i7 Raptor following a multi-year evaluation in which reliability, density, and infrastructure efficiency were key differentiators. Additionally, we closed the largest ActiveScale Cold Storage order in company history, nearly doubling the number of core transactions above $500,000.”
Hugues Meyrath, Chief Executive Officer of Quantum
“Tape remained our most consistent growth driver with hyperscale demand increasing more than 2.6 times year-over-year as customers recognize tape’s strategic role in addressing AI-driven infrastructure strain. Although supply constraints continue to affect shipment timing in certain areas, our ability to secure disk drives has improved, enabling us to fulfill previously delayed orders as demand remains ahead of available supply. With the recent introduction of Quantum Autonomous Data Management (ADM), which combines intelligence with action and is tightly integrated with ActiveScale and our tape portfolio, we are helping customers optimize data placement based on value, risk, and cost. Combined with expanding opportunities across hyperscale, enterprise, government, and critical-infrastructure customers, we are well positioned to capitalize on accelerating data growth driven by AI, analytics, compliance, and cyber-resilience requirements.”
