Analysis · IQST · Technology
iQSTEL's Q2 2026 revenue surged 51% year-over-year to $109.1 million, driven by organic growth and the GlobeTopper acquisition. However, the company still posted a net loss attributable to stockholders of $4.0 million for the first half, and management reiterated substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The filing also discloses material weaknesses in internal controls and subsequent events including CEO/CFO compensation changes and an internal corporate realignment. The positive working capital of $2.7 million is a notable improvement from the negative working capital reported in Q1, but the persistent losses and control deficiencies keep this a high-risk situation.
