iQSTEL Inc. (NASDAQ:IQST) on Monday disclosed that its fiscal year 2025 preliminary revenue is around $317 million, compared to its guidance of $340 million.
The company currently operates at an annual revenue run rate of around $400 million and an adjusted EBITDA run rate of about $2.7 million.
This marks the early stage of what management views as a ‘profit inflection point’, where increasing scale is expected to drive faster EBITDA growth.
iQSTEL expects EBITDA run rate to reach $9 million-$15 million as the company’s revenue scales towards $500 million-$600 million.
The company says that based on industry benchmarks, this EBITDA expansion could significantly increase the company’s implied valuation.
With plans to pursue two targeted acquisitions, iQSTEL aims to boost its revenue beyond $500 million while broadening its geographic footprint and technology capabilities.
The company is also planning to expand into AI-enabled telecom solutions and cybersecurity services.
The company is now focusing on a growth strategy aimed at profitability expansion through the consolidation of minority ownership in key subsidiaries and the expansion of higher-margin AI and cybersecurity services to drive the transition.
iQSTEL said these initiatives are expected to generate seven-digit annual revenue by 2027, improving the company's margin profile and earnings quality.
IQST Price Action: iQSTEL shares were down 0.53% at $1.87 during premarket trading on Monday. The stock is trading near its 52-week low of $1.80, according to Benzinga Pro data.
