IQSTEL announced the next stage of its growth strategy, setting an intermediate goal of reaching a $15M EBITDA run rate in 2026 as part of its long-term plan to become a $1B revenue company by 2027. Achieving this milestone matters because public companies in IQSTEL’s sector are typically valued at 10x to 20x EBITDA. If the market applies these valuation guidelines to IQSTEL, then at a $15M EBITDA run rate the company could reach an implied market capitalization of $150M-$300M, representing a significant potential upside for shareholders as the company advances toward its $1B revenue target. This goal is part of IQSTEL’s clear road map to growth: $400M revenue run rate – achieved, giving the company the critical mass needed to scale and improve the bottom line; $15M EBITDA run rate – in process, designed to significantly increase market capitalization; $1B revenue in 2027 – the long-term target, positioning IQSTEL in the select group of billion-dollar companies and advancing into the big leagues of the tech space. To achieve these goals, IQSTEL will execute a two-pronged “pincer strategy”: The company is pursuing 2-3 key acquisitions, with each target expected to add approximately $5M in EBITDA run rate to the company’s bottom line. IQSTEL has already identified potential targets and plans to begin discussions later this year about joining its high-margin, high-technology global business platform. To finance these acquisitions, the company’s primary plan is to use a combination of traditional commercial bank debt and preferred shares as a first option, a structure designed to increase value for common shareholders while preserving financial strength and flexibility. In parallel, IQSTEL is focusing on efficiencies across its existing operations. These initiatives, already underway, are designed to further strengthen margins and contribute directly to the company’s EBITDA run rate growth.
