Trump says Iran war "close to over" amid hopes for more negotiations
COLORADO SPRINGS - SEALSQ Corp (NASDAQ:LAES) and WISeSat.Space are participating in the Space Symposium taking place from April 13-16, according to a press release statement. The announcement comes as SEALSQ shares trade at $2.14, near their 52-week low of $1.99, following a challenging six-month period that saw the stock decline 72%. Despite the stock’s recent struggles, the company maintains a strong balance sheet with more cash than debt and a current ratio of 15.92, according to InvestingPro data.
The companies plan to showcase their Quantum Spatial Orbital Cloud (QSOC) platform roadmap during World Quantum Day at the event. WISeSat, a subsidiary of WISeKey International Holding Ltd (SIX:WIHN, NASDAQ: WKEY), focuses on space technology for secure satellite communication.
The companies will present a 6U post-quantum satellite platform, with a first launch scheduled for November 2026. The QSOC concept is described as a planned commercial quantum-enabled orbital cloud platform designed to deliver secure communications and post-quantum security services from space.
The platform is based on a planned 100-satellite constellation intended to provide quantum key distribution, quantum random number generation, and post-quantum digital identity services to governments, enterprises, financial institutions, and defense organizations. The architecture designates WISeSat as the orbital infrastructure owner and operator, while SEALSQ would operate the quantum cloud layer.
The first deployment phase comprises 15 satellites expected to be launched and fully operational by 2027, which the company states is fully funded. The next satellite is scheduled to launch aboard a SpaceX rocket in June 2026.
"This marks a pivotal moment in our mission to democratize access to secure space infrastructure," said Carlos Moreira, Founder and CEO of SEALSQ.
The platform targets 99.9% uptime for quantum security services. The WISeSat constellation is designed to provide connectivity for IoT devices with protection against classical and quantum computing threats.
SEALSQ develops semiconductors, PKI, and post-quantum technology hardware and software products. WISeKey has deployed over 1.6 billion microchips across various IoT sectors. The company posted revenue of $18.25 million in the last twelve months with an impressive 66% growth rate, though it remains unprofitable with negative EBITDA of $37.58 million.
