Dear Shareholders:

Yesterday we announced a major milestone resulting in a hockey stick growth curve event, the acquisition of QXTEL.

iQSTEL and QXTEL Announce A Deal To Become Quarter Billion Revenue Corporation

iQSTEL and QXTEL have entered into a binding agreement for iQSTEL to acquire 51% of the capital stock of QXTEL. We expect all terms and conditions of this binding purchase agreement to be executed within no more than 60 days at which time 51% of QXTEL's shares will be transfer to IQSTEL.

To further demonstrate the commitment of all parties involved, see QXTEL's post yesterday on LinkedIn:

IQSTEL AND QXTEL ANNOUNCE A DEAL TO BECOME QUARTER BILLION REVENUE CORPORATION

As I noted in the first line of my letter here today, this agreement is a major milestone resulting in a hockey stick growth curve. Let me highlight some of the key aspects driving the momentum behind this milestone.

The addition of QXTEL's revenue alone nearly doubles iQSTEL's annual revenue before the acquisition, but that is barely the tip of the iceberg on the list of contributions QXTEL brings to the vision of iQSTEL becoming a $1 Billion company.

QXTEL's commercial value is far greater than its revenue contributions alone. QXTEL adds improved operating margins with the addition of further operating efficiencies and synergies to be cross leveled across the combined operations. QXTEL brings new and unique customers, and expanded executive talent and experience. The combination of QXTEL with iQSTEL is one of those situations where 1 + 1 > 2.

Here are some of the stunning numerical metrics of iQSTEL resulting from the acquisition that illustrate the value of the QXTEL acquisition:

• Revenue of approximately $700,000 per day
• Gross margin of approximately $160,000 per week
• Telecom Division Operating income of approximately $60,000 per week
• Revenue Per Share (RPS) increase of 75% from $0.81 per share EOY 2023 to $1.40 per share applied to the same EOY 2023 capitalization structure. 

In addition to the improved financial metrics, QXTEL brings to iQSTEL new and active top 10 incumbent wholesale telecom customers that own their own networks and bring end users from the Middle East, UK, Belgium, France, Italy, Germany, Turkey, Africa, the Caribbean, and India. QXTEL is also a member of the GSMA association and the GLF Community (The ITW Global Leaders' Forum), and they have a global presence, with offices in Miami, Buenos Aires, Istanbul, London, Belgrade and Dubai.

The highest value of this acquisition is the top telecommunication executive talent at QXTEL which is one of the key features that makes the acquisition so compelling for iQSTEL. The names of the QXTEL executives are essentially independent brand names well recognized within the international telecom industry. 

It is important to remark that the acquisition agreement is intended to maintain QXTEL operational continuity ensuring a seamless transition for all QXTEL customers.

We are delighted to have Tolga Alemdar retain his role as the Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director of QXTEL. We are also pleased to have Fernando Diaz Romero, Gonzalo Henschien, and Rami Herzallah, remain on board as Chief members of the QXTEL management team continuing in their respective roles at QXTEL.

The leadership of both iQSTEL and QXTEL have the same vision to become one of the 10 largest wholesale telecommunication service providers in the world. This deal graduates us on to that top ten list.

With the execution of the purchase agreement finalized, we will now begin to integrate operations to achieve operational efficiencies and seize market synergies. Our focus is now on the horizon beyond a quarter billion in annual revenue.

Our Independent Board of Directors and the Management want to thank all our shareholders and investors for their support which has led to our stunning growth. 

The best is yet to come,

Leandro Iglesias
CEO and Chairman
iQSTEL, Inc.
