Exhibit 99.1

**Zapata Quantum Completes Oversubscribed $15 Million Strategic Financing, Capping Successful Restructuring**

*VC-led round will be used to scale platform and team, building on a foundation of hardware-agnostic quantum software leadership*

**BOSTON, MA – April 23, 2026 –** Zapata Quantum (OTC: ZPTA) ("Zapata", "Zapata Quantum" or the "Company"), a pioneer in quantum computing application and algorithm development, today announced the completion of an oversubscribed $15 million financing led by Triatomic Capital, a leading technology venture capital firm, with participation from other strategic investors. The capital raise marks the final milestone of a successful year-long restructuring effort and positions Zapata to accelerate its role in advancing the application layer of quantum computing.

"We've completed our restructuring and emerged stronger than ever," said Sumit Kapur, Chief Executive Officer of Zapata Quantum. "This financing is a strong vote of confidence from long-term, fundamentals-oriented investors and positions us to scale at a critical moment as quantum computing transitions from technical progress to transformational real-world value creation."

"Zapata stands out for its commitment to technical rigor, deep portfolio of foundational IP, and proven experience helping enterprises advance in their quantum journey," said Jeff Huber, General Partner of Triatomic Capital. "We're proud to support Zapata's growth as it continues to demonstrate leadership in translating quantum advantage into quantum utility."

**Leadership in Quantum Value Creation**

Since emerging from Harvard's Quantum Computing Lab in 2017, Zapata has led foundational work advancing real-world quantum applications across Fortune 500 enterprises and the public sector, spanning high-value domains including cryptography, pharmaceuticals, finance, materials discovery, and defense.

A recent example of Zapata's work highlighting quantum-enabled drug discovery was selected as one of Nature Biotechnology's top 10 scientific papers of 2025, and featured as the journal's December 2025 cover. The study, co-authored with Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, University of Toronto, and Insilico Medicine, focused on targeting the KRAS mutation in cancer therapy—serving as a proof point of Zapata's capabilities and quantum computing's massive potential to generate viable drug candidates in the biotech domain.

**Scaling at a Critical Moment for Quantum Computing**

Quantum computing is entering a phase of increasing enterprise relevance, with rapid hardware progress fueling growing sophistication in algorithms and implementations. At the same time, a gap remains between technical advancement and the ability to develop validated, high-value applications for enterprise problems. Zapata is focused on closing this gap by providing enterprises with the intelligence and tooling required to move from experimentation to production-ready solutions.

The strategic investment by Triatomic and others underscores Zapata's mission to solve the quantum application bottleneck and represents a key next step in the company's progress in the public market.

Funding will be used to scale Zapata's platform and team across science, engineering, product, and commercial functions. As an AI-native company, Zapata is structured to deploy this capital efficiently—leveraging AI-driven development and strategic partnerships, including its collaboration with the University of Maryland on formal validation of quantum algorithms, to extend capabilities, accelerate development, and maximize runway.

"We are already firing on all cylinders: scientifically, technically, and commercially," said Kapur. "This capital is jet fuel. It allows us to scale across every dimension. I couldn't be more grateful or excited for the journey ahead as we continue toward our true north as the foundational hardware-agnostic quantum software platform."
