Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.

The information in this Item 7.01 is being furnished with the Commission and shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and includes the following information to be provided by senior management at investor meetings on May 28, 2026:

• Over the next 5 years IBM plans to invest more than $10B to advance our leadership position in quantum, including in R&D, capex, ecosystem partnerships, manufacturing scaling, and M&A, which further enhances our confidence in delivering the first large-scale fault-tolerant quantum computer by 2029.

• To date, IBM has deployed over 90 quantum systems, including more quantum computers than reported by all other industry players combined. The company has also built a global client and partner ecosystem spanning more than 325 Fortune 500 companies, startups, universities, and government agencies already using IBM’s global fleet of quantum computers to tackle scientific challenges across chemistry, biology, materials science, and more.

• This $10B investment announcement follows last week’s Letter of Intent between IBM and the Department of Commerce to build an American quantum chip foundry (Anderon) to accelerate American quantum innovation.
