  • Whisl and Smartbiz combined are anticipated to add $11.6 million in annual revenue and $1.34 million in positive net income.
  • Organic sales growth combined with revenues acquired through merger and acquisition keep iQSTEL on track to reach or surpass its 2022 $90 million revenue forecast.
  • The addition of higher margin sales and the systematic streamlining of existing operations continues to improve the bottom line keeping the company on track to be net income positive by year end 2022.
  • Beginning in 2023, management anticipates iQSTEL to continuously deliver earnings.
  • The company remains prepared to execute its Nasdaq up-listing plan once market conditions improve to permit the iQSTEL share price to organically increase to the required minimum listing price.
  • iQSTEL’s previously announced IoT Labs (Internet of Things Business) field test with a prominent Fortune 500 chemical company is proceeding and a new business development in the ongoing project is imminently anticipated.

  • iQSTEL’s EVOSS EV Motorcycle business now has motorcycles in Texas, Miami, Panama, Venezuela, and Spain all receiving good reviews.
  • IoT Labs, Global Money One, and EVOSS are all anticipated to begin making high margin revenue contributions in the second half of 2022.
  • The recently announced proposal from a third party to buy the EVOSS division, which iQSTEL declined, has alternatively resulted in the company’s Independent Board of Director approving an initiate to spin off the EVOSS and to be separately listed on Nasdaq.
  • iQSTEL’s M&A campaign continues with a current due diligence effort underway intended to lead to the acquisition of 2,300 miles of fiberoptic network in America.

iQSTEL had the good fortune and foresight to construct a growth platform prior to the onset of the prevailing economic conditions.  The company is currently enjoying strong growth and expects to continue experiencing strong growth throughout the year.  When the economic cycle turns back toward growth and expansion, iQSTEL expects to be well positioned to capture market attention.
