IQSTEL reports strong Q3 2025 revenue growth, improving profitability, and a clean, non‑dilutive balance sheet.

IQSTEL delivered record Q3 2025 revenue of $102.8 million, up 90% year‑over‑year and 42% quarter‑over‑quarter, with nine‑month revenue of $232.6 million (+26% YoY). The company reports positive adjusted EBITDA in the quarter ($683,189) and run‑rate metrics (revenue run rate $411.5 million, adjusted EBITDA run rate $2.73 million), plus a reported asset base of $46.8 million and shareholders' equity of $17.8 million as of September 30, 2025.

The business mechanism rests on expanded Telecom revenues, a recent 51% acquisition of Globetopper that shifts mix toward Telecom (~80%) and Fintech (~20%), and new AI/cybersecurity offerings including an AI call‑center (IQ2Call.ai) and a partnership with Cycurion involving a mutual $1 million share exchange and planned shareholder dividends before December 31, 2025. Key dependencies and risks disclosed include execution against the reaffirmed full‑year 2025 revenue target of $340 million and the announced organic revenue forecast of $430 million for 2026; those targets anchor near‑term expectations and are monitorable milestones. Watch the company’s reported adjusted EBITDA trajectory, the realization of the $430 million organic revenue forecast in 2026, timing and cash impact of the Globetopper integration, and the dividend share distributions tied to the Cycurion partnership within the remainder of 2025.

CEO Commentary:

"Our third quarter results highlight not only our consistent growth but the strength of the company's fundamentals," said Leandro Iglesias, CEO of IQSTEL.

"With $12.23 in assets per share and $4.66 in equity per share, IQSTEL is financially stronger than ever. We remain deeply committed to increasing shareholder value through profitable growth, innovation, and disciplined execution.

"Our business model is proven. Our operating businesses have generated positive adjusted EBITDA and positive net income for several quarters in a row, demonstrating sustained operational profitability. While our rapid expansion required financing that temporarily affected consolidated results, these costs have been amortized in a short period. Having reached critical mass, IQSTEL's bottom line is now beginning to accelerate - and investors should expect this profitability trend to strengthen in the coming quarters."

Iglesias added:

"After becoming a dilutive debt-free company and achieving record revenue growth, IQSTEL is now in the best business and corporate shape in its history to reach our $15 million EBITDA target in 2026. We are building the foundation for a billion-dollar global corporation - one quarter at a time."

Looking Ahead:

IQSTEL remains fully on track to achieve its 2025 revenue forecast of $340 million and has already announced an organic revenue forecast of $430 million for 2026, representing 26% year-over-year organic growth.

With a revenue run rate above $400 million, zero dilutive debt, and a solid equity position, IQSTEL continues its transformation into one of the fastest-growing technology corporations listed on Nasdaq - combining Connectivity, AI, Fintech, and Cybersecurity into one powerful global platform.

Thanks to its strong balance sheet, explosive revenue growth, and its strategic position in both the telecommunications and technology markets, IQSTEL could become an attractive acquisition target for larger industry players seeking expansion in high-growth digital and AI-driven sectors.
