Global telecommunications and technology firm IQSTEL Inc. has announced the completion of a new corporate financial platform, designed to enhance financial transparency, broaden funding access, and lay the groundwork for future transformative acquisitions and digital service expansion.

The cornerstone of this platform is the formation of a wholly-owned subsidiary, IQSTEL Operating Holdings Inc. (IOH). IOH is structured as a mirror entity of IQSTEL, sharing the same board, management team, and strategic direction, and it will consolidate the majority of IQSTEL's operational subsidiaries and business assets. This reorganization is purely an internal restructuring, having no impact on the public company entity, shareholder structure, or its Nasdaq listing, and became effective on July 2, 2026.

The company's Chief Executive Officer stated that the establishment of IOH represents one of the most strategic corporate actions in the company's history, serving as a foundational element for IQSTEL's next phase of growth, aimed at supporting transformative mergers and acquisitions and the ongoing expansion of digital services.

The new platform is expected to deliver several strategic benefits: firstly, it will streamline the integration process for future acquisitions, providing greater flexibility for deals such as mergers and joint ventures; secondly, it will enhance access to institutional financing through a clearer and more transparent operational structure; and finally, it will offer shareholders a more distinct financial view, making it easier to understand the performance of each business line and the overall growth strategy.

IQSTEL Inc. is currently advancing a transaction to acquire a 51% controlling stake in ULTRANET Telecom Group, a profitable telecom operator with operations across six African nations. If finalized in the third quarter, this acquisition is projected to contribute approximately $130 million in annual revenue and $4.5 million in annual net profit to IQSTEL. This would elevate the company's annual revenue run-rate to around $560 million and significantly strengthen its operational footprint in Africa. The company views this acquisition as the first major growth initiative supported by the new platform and plans to leverage the integrated structure for further expansion into the Middle East and Asia.
