NEW YORK, Aug. 1, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — iQSTEL Inc. (OTC-QX: IQST) (www.iQSTEL.com), a US-based, multinational, fully reporting and audited publicly listed telecommunications and technology company today released highlights of its plan to reach $1 billion in annual sales for FY 2027.

iQSTEL reported $144.5 million in revenue for FY 2023 and has forecasted $290 million for FY 2024. The company is on track to reach its revenue forecast this year. The company has a long history achieving and even surpassing its forecasts.

Under the direction of the company’s CFO, Alvaro Quintana, iQSTEL has developed a detailed plan to grow the company’s annual revenue to $1 billion for FY 2027. The plan includes a detail analysis of each subsidiary using several dynamic variables. The comprehensive plan with dynamic forecasts are being presented to investment banks and institutional investors.

To simplify the $1 Billion Plan, financial projections only entail the anticipated performance of the company’s Enhanced Telecommunications Division. Any contributions to revenue and operating income from our Fintech, Electric Vehicle and AI-Enhanced Metaverse divisions will augment the projected $1 billion in sales.

The $1 Billion Plan is built primarily on the planned expansion of the company’s sales that today are primarily generated from telecom services. The FY 2027 planned $1 billion in annual sales is expected to be derived from telecom services alone.

The plan to grow to $1 billion in annual sales consists of two major components:

a) Organic Growth: Approximately half of the $1 billion in annual revenue is expected from organic sales growth generated by existing operations.
b) One Strategic Acquisition: Approximately one quarter of the $1 billion in annual revenue is expected to be achieved through acquisition. The remaining one quarter of the $1 billion in annual revenue is expected from organic sales growth, and synergies with iQSTEL generated by the acquired operations.

iQSTEL has an excellent organic growth and synergies track record. The company achieved $50 million in organic growth in FY 2023, and expects to realize $90 million in organic growth this year, FY 2024.

iQSTEL has targeted a specific acquisition opportunity with the potential to add from $200 million to $300 million in annual revenue next year. The acquisition plan includes an initiative to expand the annual sales of the target operation to $500 million by year end FY 2027. The acquisition is being coordinated to close contemporaneously with our intended Nasdaq uplisting and a $30 million raise.

The overall $1 Billion Plan includes the following initiatives:

a) Consolidate independent subsidiary operations into a single corporation.
b) Implement a single technology platform for the Telecom services
c) Expand our iQSTEL branding efforts.

All these initiatives are designed to further streamline expenses and improve operating margins. An improved operating profit in turn improves the bottom line, and in so doing, enhances the company’s potential for an improved market valuation.

Based on the net present value of the company’s current and anticipated cash generation from 2024 through 2027, and the residual cash generation after 2027, we calculated iQSTEL’s current business valuation to be between $158 million and $198 million. This valuation does not include any contribution from Fintech, EV and AI-Enhanced Metaverse business divisions and the strategic acquisition described above. 

This valuation, supported by our financials and growth plan, is being utilized in our current and ongoing investment banking business development efforts in conjunction with our present initiative to uplist to Nasdaq.

iQSTEL, CEO, Mr, Iglesias commented: “We are a roll up company. We believe the consistent organic growth and synergies that we have achieved following acquisitions will continue to improve our bottom line and increase shareholder value by increasing the company’s overall market valuation. We genuinely believe our company is a good investment opportunity. We also believe our $1 Billion Plan is ideally timed with our Nasdaq uplisting initiative.”
