# Rigetti shares drop after Q1 growth fails to ease concerns

Revenue jump: First-quarter sales rose 199% year over year to $4.4 million, aided by a one-time gain that lifted net profit. Ongoing cost pressure: Operating expenses climbed 24% as Rigetti invested heavily in R&D, fabrication, and infrastructure, with high spending expected to continue. Analyst split: Brokerage ratings range from Buy to Strong Buy, but some warn that high valuation and competition could limit gains.
