Notes to the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31, 2023
NOTE 1 -ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
Organization and Operations
iQSTEL Inc. (“iQSTEL”, “we”,
“us”, or the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of
The Company has been engaged in the business of telecommunication services as a wholesale carrier of voice, SMS and data for other telecom companies around the World with 404 active interconnection agreements with mobile companies, fixed line companies and other wholesale carriers.
NOTE 2 -SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial statements and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, they do not contain all information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for annual financial statements.
In the opinion of the Company’s management, the accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements contain all the adjustments necessary (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) to present the financial position of the Company as of March 31, 2023 and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full fiscal year or any future period. These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 filed with the SEC on April 14, 2023.
Consolidation Policy
The consolidated financial statements of the Company include the accounts of the Company and its owned subsidiaries, Etelix.com USA, LLC (“Etelix”), SwissLink Carrier AG (“Swisslink”), ITSBCHAIN, LLC (“ItsBchain”), QGLOBAL SMS, LLC (“QGlobal”), IoT Labs, LLC (“IoT Labs”), Global Money One Inc. (“Global Money One”), Whisl Telecom LLC (“Whisl”) and Smartbiz Telecom LLC (“Smartbiz”). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. The estimates and judgments will also affect the reported amounts for certain revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these good faith estimates and judgments.
Foreign Currency Translation and Re-measurement
The Company translates its foreign operations to U.S. dollars in accordance with ASC 830, “Foreign Currency Matters”.
The functional currency and reporting currency of Etelix, QGlobal, ItsBchain, IoT Labs, Whisl, Smartbiz and Global Money One is the U.S. dollar, while SwissLink’s functional currency is the Swiss Franc (“CHF”).
| F-5 |
SwissLink translates their records into U.S. dollars as follows:
| • | Assets and liabilities at the rate of exchange in effect at the balance sheet date |
| • | Equities at historical rate |
| • | Revenue and expense items at the average rate of exchange prevailing during the period |
Adjustments arising from such translations are included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in stockholders’ equity.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash in banks, money market funds, and certificates of term deposits with maturities of less than three months from inception, which are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which, in the opinion of management, are subject to an insignificant risk of loss in value. The Company had no cash equivalents at March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022.
Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts
Substantially all of the Company’s accounts receivable balance is related to trade receivables. Trade accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. The allowance for doubtful accounts is the Company’s best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in its existing accounts receivable. Under the expected credit loss model, the Company reviews its allowance for doubtful accounts daily and past due balances over 60 days and a specified amount are reviewed individually for collectability. Account balances are charged off after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. During the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company recorded no bad debt expense.
The Company has adopted ASC 260, ”Earnings per Share,” which requires presentation of basic earnings per share on the face of the statements of operations for all entities with complex capital structures and requires a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the basic earnings per share computation. In the accompanying financial statements, basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock and potentially dilutive outstanding shares of common stock during the period to reflect the potential dilution that could occur from common shares issuable through contingent share arrangements, stock options and warrants unless the result would be antidilutive. Dilutive potential common shares include outstanding Series B Preferred stock, and it was excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share as the result was anti-dilutive for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022.
Concentrations of Credit Risk
The Company’s financial instruments that are exposed to concentrations of credit risk primarily consist of its cash and cash equivalents and related party payables. The Company places its cash and cash equivalents with financial institutions of high creditworthiness. At times, its cash and cash equivalents with a particular financial institution may exceed any applicable government insurance limits.

Financial Instruments
The Company follows ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” which defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between (1) market participant assumptions developed based on market data obtained from independent sources (observable inputs) and (2) an entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions developed based on the best information available in the circumstances (unobservable inputs). The fair value hierarchy consists of three broad levels, which gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:
Level 1
Level 1 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2
Level 2 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data.
Level 3
Level 3 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
The carrying values of our financial instruments, including, cash; accounts receivable; prepaid and other current assets; accounts payable; accrued liabilities and other current liabilities; and due from/to related parties approximate their fair values due to the short-term maturities of these financial instruments.
Transactions involving related parties cannot be presumed to be carried out on an arm’s-length basis, as the requisite conditions of competitive, free-market dealings may not exist. Representations about transactions with related parties, if made, shall not imply that the related party transactions were consummated on terms equivalent to those that prevail in arm’s-length transactions unless such representations can be substantiated. It is not, however, practical to determine the fair value of amounts due to related parties due to their related party nature.
Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company does not use derivative instruments to hedge exposures to cash flow, market or foreign currency risks. We evaluate all of our financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives. For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value and is then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the statements of operations. For stock-based derivative financial instruments, the Company used a Black-Scholes valuation model to value the derivative instruments at inception and on subsequent valuation dates. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is evaluated at the end of each reporting period. Derivative liabilities are classified in the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement or conversion of the instrument could be required within 12 months of the balance sheet date.
| F-7 |
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue from telecommunication services in accordance with ASC 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers.”
The Company recognizes revenue related to monthly usage charges and other recurring charges during the period in which the telecommunication services are rendered, provided that persuasive evidence of a sales arrangement exists, and collection is reasonably assured. Management considers persuasive evidence of a sales arrangement to be a written interconnection agreement. The Company’s payment terms vary by client.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-03, ASC Subtopic “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions.” These amendments clarify that a contractual restriction on the sale of an equity security is not considered part of the unit of account of the equity security and, therefore, is not considered in measuring fair value. The amendments in this update are effective for public business entities for fiscal years, including interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2023. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact of the adoption of this standard on its consolidated financial statements.
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments Credit Losses —Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” ASU 2016-13 requires a financial asset (or group of financial assets) measured at amortized cost basis to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected, which includes the Company’s accounts receivable. This ASU is effective for the Company for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2022. The Company adopted this accounting pronouncement on January 1, 2023 and it did not have any impact to its financial statements.
The Company has reviewed all other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements and does not believe the future adoption of any such pronouncements may be expected to cause a material impact on our financial statements.
NOTE 3 - GOING CONCERN
The Company's consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and does not have an established source of revenues sufficient to cover its operating costs. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to successfully accomplish its business plan and eventually attain profitable operations.
During the next year, the Company's foreseeable cash requirements will relate to continual development of the operations of its business, maintaining its good standing in the industry and continuing its marketing efforts. The Company may experience a cash shortfall and be required to raise additional capital.
Historically, the Company has relied upon funds from its stockholders. Management may raise additional capital through future public or private offerings of the Company's stock or through loans from private investors, although there can be no assurance that it will be able to obtain such financing. The Company's failure to do so could have a material and adverse effect upon its operations and its stockholders.

NOTE 8 – DERIVATIVE LIABILITIES
Fair Value Assumptions Used in Accounting for Derivative Liabilities
ASC 815, “Derivatives and Hedging,” requires we assess the fair market value of derivative liabilities at the end of each reporting period and recognize any change in the fair market value as other income or expense.
The Company determined our derivative liabilities to be a Level 3 fair value measurement and used the Black-Scholes pricing model to calculate the fair value as of March 31, 2023. The Black-Scholes model requires six basic data inputs: the exercise or strike price, time to expiration, the risk-free interest rate, the current stock price, the estimated volatility of the stock price in the future, and the dividend rate. Changes to these inputs could produce a significantly higher or lower fair value measurement.
For the three months ended March 31, 2023 and year ended December 31, 2022, the estimated fair values of the liabilities measured on a recurring basis are as follows:
Three months ended March 31, 2023 | Year ended December 31, 2022 | |||||||
| Expected term | | | ||||||
| Expected average volatility | | | ||||||
| Expected dividend yield | ||||||||
| Risk-free interest rate | - | - |
The following table summarizes the changes in the derivative liabilities during the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022:

Forward-Looking Statements
Certain statements, other than purely historical information, including estimates, projections, statements relating to our business plans, objectives, and expected operating results, and the assumptions upon which those statements are based, are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. These forward-looking statements generally are identified by the words “believes,” “project,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “intends,” “strategy,” “plan,” “may,” “will,” “would,” “will be,” “will continue,” “will likely result,” and similar expressions. We intend such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe-harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, and are including this statement for purposes of complying with those safe-harbor provisions. Forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and assumptions that are subject to risks and uncertainties which may cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements. Our ability to predict results or the actual effect of future plans or strategies is inherently uncertain. Factors which could have a material adverse effect on our operations and future prospects on a consolidated basis include, but are not limited to: changes in economic conditions, legislative/regulatory changes, availability of capital, interest rates, competition, and generally accepted accounting principles. These risks and uncertainties should also be considered in evaluating forward-looking statements and undue reliance should not be placed on such statements. We undertake no obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Further information concerning our business, including additional factors that could materially affect our financial results, is included herein and in our other filings with the SEC.

Results of Operations
Revenues
Our total revenue reported for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was $24,666,529, compared with $19,419,311 for the three months ended March 31, 2022. These numbers reflect an increase of 27.02% quarter over quarter on our consolidated revenues.
When looking at the numbers by subsidiary, we have the following breakout for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2022:
Subsidiary | Revenue Three Months Ended March 31, 2023 | Revenue Three Months Ended March 31, 2022 | ||||||

| Smartbiz | 3,391,240 | — | ||||||
| $ | 24,666,529 | $ | 19,419,311 | |||||
The continued growth of our revenue is the result of the development of our business strategy, which includes the strengthening of our commercial and operating activities and new acquisitions.

Cost of Revenues
Our total cost of revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2023 increased to $23,449,793, compared with $18,935,251 for the three months ended March 31, 2022.
When looking at the numbers by subsidiary, we have the following breakout for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2022:
Subsidiary | Cost of Revenue Three Months Ended March 31, 2023 | Cost of Revenue Three Months Ended March 31, 2022 | ||||||
| Etelix.com USA, LLC | $ | 3,764,473 | $ | 5,804,495 | ||||

| Smartbiz | 3,083,294 | — | ||||||
| $ | 23,449,793 | $ | 18,935,251 | |||||
Our cost of revenue consists of direct charges from vendors that the Company incurs to deliver services to its customers. These costs primarily consist of usage charges for calls and SMS terminated in vendor’s network.
The behavior in the costs shows a logical correlation with the behavior of the revenue commented above. We have reached a higher volume of sales and every additional unit sold (minutes and SMS) has its corresponding termination cost.
Gross Margin
Our gross margin, which is simply the difference between our revenues and our cost of sales, discussed above, was $1,216,736 for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to $484,060 for the three months ended March 31, 2022. This represents an increase of 151.36% in the gross margin quarter over quarter.
But more importantly, the Gross Margin in terms of percentage of Revenue was 2.49% for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to 4.93% for the three months ended March 31, 2023, representing an increase of 98% quarter over quarter.
Operating Expenses
Operating expenses increased to $1,534,266 for the three months ended March 31, 2023 from $989,498 for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The detail by major category is reflected in the table below.

When looking at the numbers by subsidiary, we have the following breakout for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2022:

The most significant differences are: (1) the increase in Salaries, wages and benefits primarily due to an increment in the headcount related to Whisl and Smartbiz; (2) the increases in technology expenses related to the deployment and upgrade of the Switching platform; and (3) the increase in Advertising expenses.
Operating Income
The Company showed negative Operating Income for the three months ended March 31, 2023 of $317,530 compared with a negative result of $505,438 for the three months ended March 31, 2022.
Even though the Company showed a negative Operating Income, the number shows a trend of significant improvement year over year.
Our Telecom Division, which is the one generating revenue at the present time, has a positive Operating Income. The expenses of our Pre-revenue companies are set at the minimum required to finish the development of the product/services prior to market launch. Management implemented a process that intends to reduce future general and administrative expenses of iQSTEL to a maximum of $400,000 per quarter.

Other Expenses/Other Income
We had other income of $158,708 for the three months ended March 31, 2023, as compared with other expenses of $19,293 for the same period ended 2022. The increase in other income is largely due to the positive change in fair value of derivative liabilities.
Net Loss
We finished the three months ended March 31, 2023 with a net loss attributable to shareholders of iQSTEL Inc. of $363,185, as compared to a loss of $554,970 during the three months ended March 31, 2022. When comparing the results year over year, these numbers show a significant improvement, as the fundamentals of the Company are getting stronger quarter after quarter leading to our goal of generating positive net income.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of March 31, 2023, we had total current assets of $6,736,967 and current liabilities of $6,301,031, resulting in a positive working capital of $435,936 and a current ratio of approximately 1.07 to 1. This compares to a negative working capital of $15,089 at December 31, 2022.
Our operating activities provided $197,163 in the three months ended March 31, 2023 as compared with $447,652 used in operating activities in the three months ended March 31, 2022. Our cash flow from operations varies depending on our operating results and the timing of operating cash receipts and payments, specifically trade accounts receivable and trade accounts payable.
Investing activities used $142,947 for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared with $24,918 for the three months ended March 31, 2022. Uses of funds on investing activities in 2023 were primarily the acquisition of property and equipment and the issuance of a related party loan.
Financing activities provided $390,994 in the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared with $1,367,982 provided in the three months ended March 31, 2022. Our positive financing cash flow in 2023 was largely the result of the net proceeds from the execution of the Option shares in the amount of $400,000.
Our current financial condition has improved significantly. However, we intend to fund operations through increased sales and debt and/or equity financing arrangements, to strengthen our liquidity and capital resources. The Company has received the qualification of an Offering Statement under Form S-1 for the sale of up to 10,000,000 shares of common stock. This offering is being conducted on a “best efforts” basis, which means that there is no guarantee that any minimum amount will be sold. We also plan to seek additional financing in a private equity offering to secure funding for operations. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in raising additional funding. If we are not able to secure additional funding, the implementation of our business plan will be impaired. There can be no assurance that such additional financing will be available to us on acceptable terms or at all.
Inflation
Although our operations are influenced by general economic conditions, we do not believe that inflation had a material effect on our results of operations during the three-month period ended March 31, 2023.
Critical Accounting Polices
A “critical accounting policy” is one which is both important to the portrayal of a company’s financial condition and results, and requires management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain.
Our accounting policies are discussed in detail in the footnotes to our financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended March 31, 2023; however, we consider our critical accounting policies to be those related to allowance for doubtful accounts, valuation of long-lived assets, and income taxes. Management bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience and other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. See the Consolidated Financial Statements in this Quarterly Report for a complete discussion of our significant accounting policies.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of March 31, 2023, there were no off-balance sheet arrangements.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
We do not expect the adoption of recently issued accounting pronouncements to have a significant impact on our results of operation, financial position, or cash flow.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
We are a smaller reporting company and are not required to provide the information under this item pursuant to Regulation S-K.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Disclosure Controls and Procedures - Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) as of the end of the period covered by this report.
These controls are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Based on this evaluation, our CEO and CFO have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective as of March 31, 2023. Our management identified the following material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, which are indicative of many small companies with small staff: (i) inadequate segregation of duties and effective risk assessment; and (ii) insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of both US GAAP and SEC guidelines.
We believe that our financial statements presented in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q fairly present, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for all periods presented herein.
Inherent Limitations - Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, do not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. The design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within our company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdown can occur because of simple error or mistake. In particular, many of our current processes rely upon manual reviews and processes to ensure that neither human error nor system weakness has resulted in erroneous reporting of financial data.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting - There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the three-month period ended March 31, 2023, which were identified in conjunction with management’s evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
