Key Events · Earnings and Guidance · IQST

  • Preliminary H1 2026 Revenue Hits $207M

    Net revenue reached approximately $207 million for the first six months of 2026, up 59% from $130 million in H1 2025, driven by organic growth across telecom and digital services.

  • Holding Company Created to Support Growth

    Effective July 2, 2026, the company formed IQSTEL Operating Holdings Inc. (IOH) as a wholly owned subsidiary to enhance financial transparency, simplify M&A, and improve access to institutional financing.

  • Pro Forma Revenue Run Rate to Exceed $500M

    Upon closing the ULTRANET acquisition expected in Q3 2026, iQSTEL projects a pro forma annual revenue run rate of approximately $560 million and adjusted EBITDA approaching $9 million.

  • Asset Base Strengthens with ULTRANET

    Consolidated assets are approximately $44.5 million pre-acquisition, rising to about $65.5 million pro forma after the ULTRANET deal, supporting better financing terms.


Analysis · IQST · Technology

Preliminary first-half 2026 revenue hit $207 million, a 59% leap from $130 million a year ago, putting the company on pace to exceed a half-billion-dollar annual run rate once the ULTRANET acquisition closes this quarter. Management also completed the formation of IQSTEL Operating Holdings, a new subsidiary designed to streamline future acquisitions, improve access to institutional financing, and give shareholders clearer visibility into its expanding portfolio of telecom and digital services businesses. With a going-concern warning still hanging over the stock, this strong top-line growth and the structural overhaul signal an aggressive push to scale the business and address its financial vulnerabilities.
