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 June 30, 2025 and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2025 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, 2024 filed with the SEC on March 31, 2025.
| F-5 |
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”), Smartbiz Telecom LLC (“Smartbiz”) and QXTEL LIMITED (“QXTEL”). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Reverse stock split
The Company announced a reverse stock split effective on May 2, 2025 (the “Market Effective Date”). The Board of Directors of the Company approved a reverse stock split of the Company’s authorized, issued and outstanding shares of common stock, par value per share (the “Common Stock”), at a ratio of 1-for-80. All issued and outstanding common stock, options and warrants to purchase common stock and per share amounts contained in this Report have been adjusted retroactively to reflect the change in capital structure for all periods presented.
All share and per share information in these financial statements retroactively reflect this reverse stock split.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP in the United States of America 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.
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
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. The Company estimates expected credit losses related to accounts receivable balances based on a review of available and relevant
information including current economic conditions, projected economic conditions, historical loss experience, account aging, and other
factors that could affect collectability. During the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company recorded bad debt expense
of $
The Company has adopted Accounting Standards Codification 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 year. 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 convertible notes, and these were excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share as the result was anti-dilutive for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024.
| F-6 |
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, accounts receivable, 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. Based on the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) applicable in the United Sates, Switzerland’s deposit protection system (Esisuisse) and the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS) applicable in the U.K., 49.13% of our cash and cash equivalent are protected by the applicable government insurance limits.
During the six months ended June 30, 2025, we
had 25 customers representing
Approximately
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.
| F-7 |
Revenue Recognition
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.
Usage charges refer to the fees that customers are billed based on their actual usage of the services. For voice services, this typically means charges are based on the duration of calls made. For SMS (text messaging), it usually means charges per message sent. Other recurring charges are referred to charges for services such as (1) Global DIDs, (2) Global Toll-Free Numbers, (3) PBX (Private Branch Exchange) for small businesses, and (4) SIP Trunking. The provision of these services usually has set-up fees and are offered on a subscription or month-to-month basis.
Revenue is reported on a gross basis since the Company acts as the principal in the transaction, meaning it has control over the goods or services before they are transferred to the customer. This includes having the primary responsibility for fulfilling the contract and determining the price.
With respect to the specific performance obligations of the Company in its contracts with its customers, our standard service agreement establishes the following:
| • | The Company agrees to furnish to Customer, and Customer agrees to purchase from the Company, International Long Distance telecommunication services and/or SMS services at the rates agreed to in writing by the Parties. | |
| • | The Company will provide, operate and maintain communications equipment, international links and network administration and support in the United States and other countries as may be agreed upon. | |
| • | The Company will be responsible for its own expenses and will provide, operate, and maintain transmission facilities required to link its domestic network with the other Party's nearest point of presence (POP). | |
| • | The Company shall provide Customer all required IP network addresses, Domain Name Server (DNS) information and, if necessary, the associated prefixes used to exchange voice traffic as provided on the provisioning form. | |
| • | The Company shall take all appropriate security measures to protect its network from fraudulent traffic coming from unknown or unauthorized sources. Any and all IP and network information received by the Company from Customer for the purposes of this agreement shall be strictly confidential, and disclosed only to those employees or personnel with a need to know. |
The Company recognizes revenue from telecommunication services in accordance with ASC 606. Topic 606 establishes a comprehensive 5 step framework for determining revenue recognition. Under this framework, the Company considers each service a single performance obligation, since typically, the Company provides a series of distinct services.
The application of the 5 step Topic 606 revenue recognition framework to the Company's operations is depicted as follows:
| Topic 606 Conceptual Framework | Related Company Policy & Procedures |
|
Step 1 Identify the contract(s) with customer
|
A contract is defined as an approved mutual agreement between the Company and a customer setting performance obligation, and criteria that must be met in accordance with the Company's customary commercial business practices and entered into with the probable expectation that all estimated consideration will be realized in the ordinary course of business.
|
|
Step 2 Identify the performance obligations
|
Performance obligations are identified in the customer agreement, and any subsequent amendments stated in per minute, time and message usage criteria. The Company considers each service a single performance obligation, including instances where the Company provides a series of services that are substantially the same and have the same pattern of transfer.
|
|
Step 3 Determine the transaction price
|
The transaction price is determined at contract inception and is subsequently reviewed periodically to reflect applicable rate amendments, trends in regulatory, market conditions and usage of service by a customer. The transaction price excludes amounts collected on behalf of third parties such as sales taxes and regulatory fees.
|
|
Step 4 Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations
|
The transaction price is allocated to each performance obligation based on the standalone contractual selling price of the time measured service, net of any related discount.
|
|
Step 5 Recognize revenue when the entity satisfies a performance obligation
|
The Company recognizes revenues from contracts with customers when control of the usage of the services has been transferred to the customer, as recorded and measured by the Company's internal information systems. Revenues are recognized at the probable amount of consideration expected in exchange for transferring control of usage. |
| F-8 |
Under ASC 606, voice and SMS termination services typically qualify for over time recognition because the customer receives and consumes the benefits as the entity performs
| • | Each call or message is terminated in real time. | |
| • | The customer cannot "stockpile" the service — it's consumed instantly. | |
| • | The service is indivisible and recurring, with no alternative use. |
Cost of revenue
Costs of revenue represent direct charges from vendors that the Company incurs to deliver services to its customers. These costs primarily consist of usage charges for calls terminated in vendors’ networks.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2024-03 Final Standard on Income Statement: Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, which requires disaggregated disclosure of income statement expenses for public business entities. The ASU does not change the expense captions an entity presents on the face of the income statement; rather, it requires disaggregation of certain expense captions into specified categories in disclosures within the footnotes to the financial statements. This guidance will be effective for us on January 1, 2027. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2024-03.
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 its 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, negative working capital 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, lines of credit, options and secured and unsecured loans from third parties. 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 15 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS.
Subsequent to June 30, 2025 and through the date that these financials were made available, the Company had the following subsequent events:
On March 10, 2025, the Company signed a non-binding memorandum of understanding (“ASII MOU”) with Accredited Solutions, Inc. (“ASII”) to set forth the preliminary terms and mutual understanding between the parties regarding the Company’s potential sale of its 75% equity interest in ItsBchain, LLC (the “Subsidiary”) to ASII, subject to the negotiation and execution of a definitive Purchase Agreement. The parties initially agreed to execute the Purchase Agreement no later than June 1, 2025 but on July 31, 2025, the parties agreed to extend the ASII MOU expiration date to September 30, 2025.
On May 29, 2025, the Company entered into a Unit Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Craig Span (the “Seller”) and Globetopper, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Globetopper”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to acquire fifty-one percent (51%) of the membership interests of Globetopper (the “Transferred Membership Interest”) from the Seller.
Pursuant to the Agreement, the Company will acquire the Transferred Membership Interests of Globetopper for a total purchase price consisting of $700,000, payable as follows: $50,000 upon execution of the Agreement; $50,000 in cash on the Closing Date; $50,000 in cash 30 days after the Closing Date, secured by a promissory note and pledge agreement; $50,000 in cash 60 days after the Closing Date, secured by a promissory note and pledge agreement; $500,000 in restricted common shares of the Company, calculated at a 20% discount to the volume weighted average price (VWAP) during the five days preceding the Closing Date.
Additional payments based on Globetopper’s EBITDA growth, payable in common shares of the Company at a 20% discount to the greater of the VWAP during the five days following the applicable period or preceding the payment date, will be payable as follows:
| • | September 30, 2026: 50% of the positive difference between EBITDA at acquisition and EBITDA 12 months post-Closing. | |
| • | September 30, 2027: 50% of the positive difference between EBITDA 12 months and 24 months post-Closing. |
The closing is expected to occur on or before July 1, 2025, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions, including due diligence and the accuracy of representations and warranties. Either party may terminate the Agreement if the closing does not occur by July 10, 2025.
The Company will invest up to $1,200,000 in Globetopper over 24 months post-Closing in monthly installments of $50,000, subject to the achievement of specified quarterly financial targets.
The Seller will remain as Chief Executive Officer of Globetopper for at least two years post-Closing, with a reasonable salary and benefits to be agreed upon.
The operating agreement of Globetopper was amended to reflect a new board of directors consisting of three members, with the Company designating two members and the Seller designating one, with decisions made by majority vote.
Both parties agreed to mutual indemnification for breaches of representations, warranties, or covenants, with the Seller’s indemnification liability capped at 10% of the purchase price received.
On July 3, 2025, the Company executed two separate Debt Exchange Agreements (collectively, the “Exchange Agreements”) with M2B Funding Corp. and ADI Funding LLC (collectively, the “Creditors”). Pursuant to the Exchange Agreements, the Company exchanged an aggregate of $3,546,136 in outstanding debt of the Creditors, consisting of principal and accrued but unpaid interest on certain promissory notes, for a total of 37,110 shares of the Company’s newly amended Series D Preferred Stock.
| F-20 |
The number of shares of Series D Preferred issued to each Creditor was determined by dividing the respective debt amount by the lowest End-of-Day Volume-Weighted Average Price (EOD VWAP) of the Company’s common stock for the 10 trading days prior to July 3, 2025, less a 20% discount, divided by 12.5.
The Company has agreed to file a resale registration statement for the common stock underlying the Series D Preferred Stock within 45 days of July 3, 2025, on a best-efforts basis, pursuant to registration rights agreements with the Creditors.
On July 7, 2025, the Company filed a First Amended and Restated Certificate of Designation for the Series D Preferred Stock (the “Certificate of Designation”) with the Secretary of State of Nevada to amend and restate the terms of its Series D Preferred Stock, originally established on November 3, 2023, increasing the authorized shares from 75,000 to 100,000 and revising the terms as described below. The amended terms govern the 37,110 shares issued to the Creditors and include the following key provisions:
| • | Dividend Rights: 12% cumulative dividend, payable as, when, and if declared by the Board of Directors, calculated on a 360-day year, accruing from the date of issuance and ceasing the day prior to conversion, with pro rata dividends for partial-year holdings. | |
| • | Conversion Rights: Following three months from the issuance date, the Series D Preferred Stock is convertible into common stock at a rate of 12.5 shares of common stock per share, subject to adjustment for stock splits, dividends, or reorganizations, removing the prior requirement for conversion only upon a note default. | |
| • | Redemption Provisions: Optional redemption by the Company at 105% of the price paid by the holder, upon not more than three trading days’ notice. | |
| • | Liquidation Preference: Senior to common stock, Series A Preferred Stock, and Series C Preferred Stock, and on parity with Series B Preferred Stock, in any liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the Company. | |
| • | Voting Rights: No voting rights, except as required by law or for amendments to the Certificate of Designation or Articles of Incorporation that would alter the Series D Preferred Stock’s rights. | |
| • | Leak-Out Restriction: After three months, conversions to common stock and sales are limited to 10% of the average daily trading volume of the Company’s common stock per holder. |
On August 7, 2025, the Company entered into a non-binding Memorandum of Understanding (the “MOU”) with Cycurion Inc. (“Cycurion”), a Delaware corporation trading on Nasdaq under the ticker CYCU. The MOU outlines the mutual intention of the parties to explore a potential stock exchange transaction and expand their strategic partnership in AI-powered cybersecurity services and other high-tech initiatives targeting the global telecom industry.
Under the terms of the MOU, subject to satisfactory due diligence, internal approvals, and regulatory compliance, the parties intend to consider a structure whereby each party would issue $1,000,000 worth of its common stock to the other party. The number of shares would be calculated based on the lower of (i) the Nasdaq Official Closing Price on the trading day immediately preceding the signing of a binding agreement or (ii) the average Nasdaq Official Closing Price over the five trading days immediately preceding such signing.
Additionally, subject to board and regulatory approvals, each party intends to distribute up to 50% of the shares received in the exchange to its shareholders as a stock dividend. The parties also plan to continue collaborating on AI-powered cybersecurity services and explore deeper commercial relationships, including joint ventures, shared research and development, and potential structural integrations.
The MOU provides for a 60-day exploration period from the effective date, during which the parties will conduct reviews, negotiate in good faith, and assess feasibility for a definitive agreement. This period may be extended by mutual consent. The MOU is non-binding, except for provisions related to confidentiality, its non-binding nature, and governing law (Nevada law), and does not obligate either party to proceed unless a definitive agreement is executed.

Our developing Artificial Intelligence (AI)-Enhanced Metaverse Division (information and content) (www.realityborder.com) is currently developing a groundbreaking white-label solution designed specifically for corporations, businesses, and the telecommunications industry. Delivering a full suite of immersive content services, creating a comprehensive virtual experience that can be accessed through the Web or our proprietary mobile apps. The features include up to four simultaneous video screens for versatile content presentation, various virtual halls such as the main hall, home hall, auditorium, exhibition space, shopping center, and meeting rooms. Stands for mobile application downloads, clickable gates for immediate purchasing, and direct communication tools are seamlessly integrated to foster collaboration, engagement, and interactivity. It goes beyond traditional virtual spaces by utilizing cutting-edge AI technology. This ensures video conferencing and real-time communication with other users within the Metaverse, offering our customers a collective and fully immersive experience that caters to diverse needs such as content acquisition, entertainment, and shared virtual experiences. It is a future-ready platform that encourages creativity, connectivity, and collaboration like never before.
Our developing metaverse leverages advanced AI to introduce Non-Player Characters (NPCs) that significantly enhance user engagement and functionality within virtual environments. These NPCs are not mere static elements; rather, they are powered by OpenAI's latest language models, enabling dynamic interaction with users. This AI-driven interaction allows NPCs to serve as sales and brand assistants, guiding users through immersive experiences that can extend to purchasing products from external websites. Furthermore, these intelligent agents can control access to gated spaces within the metaverse based on user interactions, showcasing a personalized approach to user experience.
A key innovation in our AI implementation is the NPCs' ability to autonomously make decisions based on their understanding of user interactions. This is achieved through state-of-the-art natural language processing and understanding capabilities, which are supported in seven languages. Additionally, our NPCs utilize advanced text-to-speech and speech-to-text technologies to facilitate seamless communication with users across diverse linguistic backgrounds. The incorporation of "function call" features further enhances the NPCs' ability to perform complex tasks and interact meaningfully with the environment and the users.
Our reference to our technology as "cutting-edge" is grounded in our commitment to continuous improvement and innovation. We consistently integrate the latest advancements in AI, particularly in the areas of chatbots, language understanding, and user interaction technologies. This ensures that our metaverse remains at the forefront of AI application in virtual spaces, offering an unparalleled user experience that goes beyond traditional virtual environments.
We are currently in an advanced phase of development, with ongoing enhancements to AI functionalities and user interaction models. Our team is dedicated to exploring and implementing the latest AI technologies to ensure that our metaverse remains a leading example of innovation in virtual space technology.

Methods of Valuation
We use supplemental measures of our performance which are derived from our consolidated financial information but which are not presented in our consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures include: Adjusted EBITDA and gross revenue.
The Company derives these financial calculations on the basis of methodologies other than GAAP, primarily by excluding from a comparable GAAP measure certain items the Company does not consider to be representative of its actual operating performance. These financial calculations are “non-GAAP financial measures” as defined under the SEC rules. The Company uses these non-GAAP financial measures in operating its business because management believes they are less susceptible to variances in actual operating performance that can result from the excluded items, other infrequent charges and currency fluctuations. The Company presents these financial measures to investors because management believes they are useful to investors in evaluating the primary factors that drive the Company’s core operating performance and provide greater transparency into the Company’s results of operations. However, items that are excluded and other adjustments and assumptions that are made in calculating these non-GAAP financial measures are significant components in understanding and assessing the Company’s financial performance. These non-GAAP financial measures should be evaluated in conjunction with, and are not a substitute for, the Company’s GAAP financial measures. Further, because these non-GAAP financial measures are not determined in accordance with GAAP, and are thus susceptible to varying calculations, the non-GAAP financial measures, as presented, may not be comparable to other similarly-titled measures of other companies.
| 5 |
Adjusted EBITDA is not a recognized accounting measurement under GAAP; it should not be considered as an alternative to net income, as a measure of operating results, or as an alternative to cash flow as a measure of liquidity. It is presented here not as an alternative to net income, but rather as a measure of the Company's operating performance. Adjusted EBITDA excludes, in addition to non-operational expenses like interest expenses, taxes, depreciation and amortization; items that we believe are not indicative of our operating performance, such as:
§ Change in Fair Value of Derivative Liabilities: These adjustments reflect unrealized gains or losses that are non-operational and subject to market volatility.
§ Loss on Settlement of Debt: This represents non-recurring expenses associated with specific financing activities and does not impact ongoing business operations.
§ Stock-Based Compensation: As a non-cash expense, this adjustment eliminates variability caused by equity-based incentives.
The Company believes Adjusted EBITDA offers a clearer view of the cash-generating potential of its business, excluding non-recurring, non-cash, and non-operational impacts. Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA is useful in evaluating the Company's operating performance compared to that of other companies in its industry because the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA generally eliminates the effects of financing, income taxes, non-cash and certain other items that may vary for different companies for reasons unrelated to overall operating performance and also believes this information is useful to investors.
Gross revenue, which equals revenue before intercompany eliminations, represents a key performance metric that management uses to measure the scale of the Company’s operations, monitor revenue trends across reporting segments, and evaluate the effectiveness of sales and marketing initiatives on a consolidated basis prior to the impact of intercompany transactions.

Revenues
Our total revenue reported for the three months ended June 30, 2025 was $72,183,236, compared with $78,635,764 for the three months ended June 30, 2024. These numbers reflect a decrease of 8.21% quarter over quarter on our consolidated revenues. Our total revenue reported for the six months ended June 30, 2025 was $129,816,052, compared with $130,050,642 for the six months ended June 30, 2024; which reflect a decrease of 0.18%.

For the three months ended June 30, 2025, we recorded an increase of 6% in gross revenues (revenue before intercompany eliminations) compared to the same period in 2024. See Methods of Valuation for a discussion of gross revenue.
Similarly, for the six months period ended June 30, 2025, gross revenues increased by 17% year-over-year. However, due to a higher volume of intercompany transactions during both periods, net consolidated revenue (revenue after eliminations) was lower compared to the prior year.
These intercompany transactions are part of our strategy to optimize operations across subsidiaries by leveraging more efficient routing alternatives for our voice and SMS services, cost reductions, and improved service delivery. This synergy among our entities strengthens our position in the market and contributes to enhanced gross margin results.
The organic growth during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 was 100% of the total revenue for those periods. This reflects the solid foundation of our revenue and the growth capacity the Company has with its current operations.
We consider organic growth the revenues reported by our existing subsidiaries once fully integrated to our operations. These subsidiaries include Etelix, SwissLink, QGlobal, IoT Labs, Smartbiz, Whisl and QXTEL.
Cost of Revenue
Our total cost of revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2025 decreased to $70,311,749, compared with $76,472,140 for the three months ended June 30, 2024. Our total cost of revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2025 decreased to $126,009,607, compared with $126,507,992 for the six months ended June 30, 2024.

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, as each additional unit sold (minutes and SMS) has its corresponding termination cost.
In this sense, the inclusion of QXTEL in the consolidation process, along with the restructuring of the portfolio among subsidiaries, reflects the synergies derived from the commercial and operational integration of all group companies. This integration has resulted in a significant volume of intercompany transactions, which are part of our strategic approach to optimizing routing and cost efficiency. We expect this to positively impact revenues and margins in the future.

The most significant differences are: (1) the increase in technology expenses related to the deployment and upgrade of the Switching platform to allocate all subsidiaries; (2) the increases in other items such as salaries, wages and benefits; depreciation and amortization; and office, facility and other are largely the result of the addition of QXTEL to our consolidated financial statements.
For the six months ended June 30, 2024, QXTEL consolidated only the expenses incurred between April and June 2024. In contrast, for the same period in 2025, expenses from January through June were included. This difference in the reporting periods explains the 113% increase in general and administrative expenses compared to the prior year.
We are continually identifying operational synergies among all of our subsidiaries to be more cost efficient. The investment we are currently making in the development of a unique voice and SMS switching platform that will allow us to reduce costs between fifty and sixty thousand dollars per quarter.
Operating Income/Loss
For the three months ended June 30, 2025, the Company reported an operating loss of $656,229, representing a significant increase compared to the operating loss of $342,103 for the same period in 2024. Similarly, for the six months ended June 30, 2025, the operating loss widened to $1,260,455, up from $525,555 reported during the corresponding period in the prior year. These results reflect an overall rise in operating expenses, largely associated with ongoing investments in development and growth initiatives.
Our Telecom Division, currently the primary source of revenue for the Company, continued to generate positive Operating Income. Meanwhile, our pre-revenue companies are operating with minimal expenses, focused solely on completing product and service development prior to their market launch.
| 9 |
A comparison of the tables below highlights the significant progress of our Telecom Division, as evidenced by the increase in revenue, gross profit, and operating income for both the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2025. As we have previously stated, our strategy remains centered on strengthening the telecommunications segment to serve as a growth engine for the development and expansion of new business lines.

Other Expenses/Other Income
We had other expenses of $1,600,989 for the three months ended June 30, 2025, as compared with other expenses of $1,556,509 for the same period ended 2024. We had other expenses of $2,120,649 for the six months ended June 30, 2025, as compared with other expenses of $1,953,273 for the same period ended 2024. The increase in other expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2025 is mainly due to the change in the loss on settlement of debt, and increased interest expenses incurred.
Net Loss
We finished the three months ended June 30, 2025 with a loss of $2,348,914, as compared to a loss of $1,963,887 during the three months ended June 30, 2024. We finished the six months ended June 30, 2025 with a loss of $3,493,375, as compared to a loss of $2,544,103 during the six months ended June 30, 2024.
The net results of the periods reported are highly impacted by the expenses in the holding entity (IQSTEL), which has a high component of interest and other financial expenses related to the funds borrowed for the acquisition of QXTEL Limited.
Our Telecom Division, the division presently generating revenue, has a positive operating income when presented separately from the rest of our Company. As we have indicated on several occasions, our strategy is to strengthen our telecommunications division so that it can serve as a lever for the development of new lines of business, such as Fintech and Cybersecurity.

In evaluating our financial performance, we utilize Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental measure to provide insights into the profitability of our core operations. (Please see Adjusted EBITDA, which is reconciled to the Net Income in the table above.) Adjusted EBITDA excludes, in addition to non-operational expenses like interest expenses, taxes, depreciation and amortization; items that we believe are not indicative of our operating performance, such as:
• FX Gains and Losses.
• Stock-Based Compensation: As a non-cash expense, this adjustment eliminates variability caused by equity-based incentives.
• Other non-recurrent expenses: Adjusted EBITDA removes one-time, irregular, or non-recurring expenses to reflect the Company's sustainable earnings.
We believe Adjusted EBITDA offers a clearer view of the cash-generating potential of our business, excluding non-recurring, non-cash, and non-operational impacts.
Based on the analysis of our Adjusted EBITDA our Telecom Division is a high-performing division that generates strong operational profits.
Consolidated figures show a slightly negative Adjusted EBITDA; while this isn’t ideal, in our opinion it implies the Company is close to breaking even and might achieve positive Adjusted EBITDA with small improvements in efficiency or revenue growth. We are in a transitional period, scaling operations and investing heavily in growth initiatives with the execution of our M&A plan. Management has also identified areas for cost-cutting and operational improvements and has acted in that direction.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of June 30, 2025, we had total current assets of $35,555,030 and current liabilities of $36,843,884, resulting in a negative working capital of $1,288,854.
Our operating activities used $1,649,283 in the six months ended June 30, 2025 as compared with $3,151,688 used in operating activities in the six months ended June 30, 2024. Our negative operating cash flow for both periods is a result of our net loss and changes in operating assets and liabilities which varies depending on our operating results and the timing of operating cash receipts and payments, specifically trade accounts receivable and trade accounts payable. Despite a larger net loss, operating cash burn decreased due to working capital changes, especially receivables and payables.
Investing activities used $173,812 for the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to $2,720,197 used during the same period of year 2024. Investing outflows dropped sharply, indicating a pause in our M&A campaign.
Financing activities provided $1,351,026 in the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared with $5,306,444 provided in the six months ended June 30, 2024. Financing inflows dropped significantly, indicating a reduced reliance on equity and convertible debt.
These figures show an improved operating cash flow despite net losses and strategic use of equity for debt settlement.
The Company is shifting from aggressive expansion in 2024 with the acquisition of QXTEL to consolidation and cash preservation in these first six months of 2025, with a heavy reliance on working capital management and non-cash financing tools. The Company’s debt repayments suggest a maturing capital structure.
We intend to fund operations through increased sales and debt and/or equity financing arrangements to strengthen our liquidity and capital resources. We also plan to seek additional financing in public and 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 six-month period ended June 30, 2025.
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 six months ended June 30, 2025; 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 June 30, 2025, 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 June 30, 2025. 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.
| 13 |
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 six-month period ended June 30, 2025, 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.
