Undervalued 15 years of nothing. Ubiquitous.Lol

[oldman69]

A sign of great business management !💵💰💸💯🌶🌶

[rayf]

There are company's out that are out there losing 40 million a year and they're stock price is $16 I know it's hard to compare

[Boiler_Master]

They slowed down on all side projects last year to focus energy and capital on telecom. So far it's paid off. They turned profitable last year Q3, and growth has also accelerated. Q1 preliminary numbers put them over 100% YOY growth. And now with the QXTEL acquisition their top and bottom line for telecom this year will see substantial improvements. They plan to use telecom profits to fund their other subsidiaries like EV tho so things could start progressing again soon. Solid move to hold off and avoid funding those ventures with dilution, way better to do it with profits.

[TechSectorPlayer]

Where are the numbers for sales of electric bikes and cars? They been talking about for years ..... ... .

[Boiler_Master]

Undervalued based on what?

LWLG annual filing

2023 revenue: 40k
2023 Net Loss: 21 million

2022 Revenue: 0
2022 Net Loss: 17.2 million

Market Cap: 495M

It's kind of the exact opposite of IQST.

They have a nice cash position of 31M, but that would be from the shares they issued last year.

Some kind of tech company making some device they are focused on "testing"? So they don't actually have a proven product being sold on the market yet, hints zero revenue.

No clue what that product could potentially do. But with zero sales, 21M Loss, and their market cap sitting at a 496 million, it better be one hell of a product with solid patents behind it and generating sales soon. Otherwise that $4.17 SP is probably getting pushed lower. We all know hedge funds love to short a stock below $1 to force a r/s and even $1 would still be over a 100M market cap for a company with no sales and major losses.

Again, idk anything about their product's potential, but their financials are shit. If it's undervalued I'd like to know why.

Looks Like a Company IQST Should be Partnered With.

[Boiler_Master]

Spoiler alert... lol I'm actually planning to discuss exactly that with the CEO and CFO in DC next week. Potential options if the share price has not reacted to the improving financials after the 2024 10k next spring. There are alot of things they can do to spread awareness to new investors and bring some hype and buzz around the stock if they decide it's worth spending a little cash on. I want the conversation going now so there is plenty of time to discuss and research which options would potentially provide the biggest bang for the buck instead of being a quick decision not well thought out and planned in advance.

[Boiler_Master]

From a fundamental value perspective... In theory, a dividend would be a worse use of capital than a buy back. At a 60M market cap, just like using 2M cash to buy back shares adds roughly 3% value, using 2M cash for a dividend is about a 3% payout. Difference is, the dividend is a one time deal. In theory, in a perfect world, the share price should increase 3% in antication of the dividend and then decrease 3% after the dividend has been paid, anything more would be a market over reaction not based on actual value. It does nothing for investors or valuation after the fact. Not unless there was an expectation that they would be paying dividends regularly going forward, but they have been clear that's not the plan. Capital will be used to continue growing and improving the business, which adds significantly more shareholder value than buy backs or a one time dividend. A much better and more sustainable long term plan.

But again, just like buy backs, it could cause the stock to pump so I'm not saying it isn't worth a try. But it very well could be wasted money and if they were spending all their cash on pump tactics for the stock price instead of reinvesting in the business, I would be out. That's the path alot of OTC companies choose, pump the stock, but ultimately the business performance and the financials are why they never succeed. The caviot though, is that a higher share price does allow you to raise more capital with fewer shares having to be issued. So it can have a larger impact on shareholder value than just the up front measurable amounts I described. Which is why I would be OK with them trying something like a buyback or special dividend, just not over doing it with every dollar going towards pumping instead of improving the business itself. I still believe it won't be necessary as long as 2024 is in fact profitable and does stay on track for over 100% growth. Very few companies of this size have ever been able to accomplish that level of growth without losing tens of millions to do it.

I say let this year play out and if the SP hasn't reacted, I'll personally discuss alternative plans with management and get all the ambassador's involved to push for something we agree on as a whole. They will listen if that's the case.

[Belg]

And what about a dividend of 0,01$?
165 000 000 shares X 0,01 = 1 650 000$ = net profit from 1 quarter...

[wooferwax]

They need a sizable smartgas deal with someone and we would be gone.

[quigley24]

amazes me.......27 million is huge......that is appr 10 mil for the newbie......which comes out appr 204 mil for us and 120 mil for newbie...WOW....THAT WOULD BE OVER 320 MILLION YEARLY....IQST GOING TO BE HUGE

[wooferwax]

but, it will kill their acquisition schedule (unless you want more dilution). I think they have to break out some news about one of their side hustles to gather some interest

[Boiler_Master]

Buy back would generate hype, but that's about all. Spend 2M cash to buy back say 3% of the shares and mathematically the underlying value of our shares would improve by about 3%. So spending 2M buying back should result in a 3% share price increase. Anything more would be an over reaction based on hype, not added value. Aka it pumps the stock but doesn't actually do much for shareholder value. Long term, the cash is better spent reinvesting in the business. With that example 2M cash, they can add a hell of alot more value for shareholders if it's put towards something like another acquisition.

However, being on the OTC, improving fundamentals and shareholder value doesn't seem to be getting the job done as fast as we would like it to. At some point if the SP is not reacting as it should, they may need to consider "wasting" money on pump tactics instead of improving the business because that seems to be what our investor base wants from them. I don't want to see money spent in that way, but it may be necessary if the stock is still below $1 after the 2024 financial come out on next year's 10k.

[train]

A buy back program of some kind to get this stock on Nasdaq might be the solution to finally, after several months,, get this stock moving,

[96decibelfreak]

Maybe in December after a couple quarters of profits the company can announce a buy back policy to get this train rolling.

[wooferwax]

What is this company going to have to do to drum up the interest level here?

[sricket]

Is that what happened ?

[wooferwax]

Now Mite, you know that we go red on good news days.

[mightymite1]

What Just Happened?
Was that a Sell and a Buy to bring that Down .03
From The High Today? Shame !!

[rwa3848]

The monthly gain of $6.5 million in customers through acquisition is redoubled in performative importance because of the $3 million in new customer sales obtained via marketing. Can you please be less moronic?

[snow]

"The company recently reported more than $50 Million revenue for Q1 FY2024, and now is reporting $27M just for the month of April alone." The stock market seems more shrewd than management may have realized in his apparent attempt at deception. Average monthly revenue seems to have been about 17 million dollars in the first quarter. What management does not say is that the month of April included the acquisition which had revenues of 80 million dollars or about 6.5 dollars per month last year. With some growth by the acquired company the growth then is reduced to about 3 million dollars instead of some 10 million dollars per month.

[snow]

Boiler There are several big differences in my view. The very successful companies are almost always headed by extremely competent people. But it may be an advantage to have an absurdly high stock price in relation to the facts if it is used to sell a lot of shares at an absurdly high pps and that money is very well invested. Those investments may create good value.
The future is always unknown. Nobody can say with a high degree of uncertainty how this company will evolve. If the pps of this stock is over $ 1.5 in a year I will be very surprised. But I think it is more likely that not that it will be up nicely in a year. That is my honest assessment.

[Belg]

IQST – iQSTEL Announces $27M In Revenue for the Month of April; Company Could Surpass $250M in Revenue for FY 2024
NEW YORK, May 6, 2024 -- iQSTEL Inc. (OTC-QX: IQST) (www.iQSTEL.com) a US-based, multinational, fully reporting and audited publicly listed telecommunications and technology company preparing for a Nasdaq up-listing today announced achieving $27 million in revenue for the month of April based on preliminary accounting.

Management highlights that the April results indicate the company could exceed $250 million in revenue by year end FY2024. While iQSTEL recently announced a strategic acquisition bringing the company’s forward looking annualized revenue to over $250 million, achieving $250 million by year end FY2024 would surpass expectations.

The company’s gross profit surpassed $600,000 in April. The company achieved consistent operational profitability in Q3 last year. Management anticipates the profitability trend to continue with the company posting close to $2 million in gross profit per quarter.

The company recently reported more than $50 Million revenue for Q1 FY2024, and now is reporting $27M just for the month of April alone. Additionally, the Q2 gross profit per month is almost double the Q1 gross profit per month.

iQSTEL CEO Leandro Iglesias stated: “We are thrilled to be heading into the International Telecom Week (ITW) Conference in Washington DC having recently achieved status as a quarter billion dollar company. We have started this fiscal year with skyrocketing growth. We expect to have a notable Prescence at ITW. I look forward to sharing our experience with you.”

ITW (https://www.internationaltelecomsweek.com) is the world’s largest summit for digital infrastructure executives. More than 7,000 people from 125 countries, many from the largest operators in the world, are expected to attend this year’s conference in National Harbor, Maryland. The agenda offers a broad range of topic tracks for the telecoms industry, including Future Networks, Digital Divide, SatCom and Data Center.

[Boiler_Master]

So the primary difference that made those companies better is just the fact that they had a higher valuation? So at $5 SP iqst would be a buy, but at .33 it's not?

I believe average growth in wholesale telecom is 7% a year. They did 8x the average last year and are on track for like 13x the average industry growth this year. Do you place no value on that? Do you know of any other companies doing over 100M in sales that are growing over 100% this year and profitable? Fidelity's stock screener doesn't show any comparable companies. If you loosen the criteria to just 50%+ growth and over 100M revenue it brings up a decent list of companies but most are losing tens of millions, or hundreds of millions of dollars a year. The ones listed that are profitable at all have market caps in the billions.

Fidelity is one of the largest asset managers in the world. Search over 100M revenue, over 100% growth, over $1 net income, and market cap under 100M. Exactly Zero results. After 2024 when IQST files their annual 10k with 100% growth and profitable they would be the only company on that list, except they are not going to have a market cap under 100M by then.

I think you're full of shit honestly. But if you're being genuine, I would suggest you stop looking at blue chip company valuations today as research, and look at what those companies valuations were back when they were doing what IQST is doing. And don't make dumbass excuses like their share prices were higher so it was different, that's exactly what we're talking about, IQST's share price should be higher. Idk how you can come on here telling people 58M market cap already has their potential priced into the valuation. That tells me you are either a fool, or here with bad intentions.

[snow]

Boiler I concede that several of the leaders when it comes to market cap were operating at losses and had very high market caps for years before they became profitable. But there is an extremely important difference. There is something called virtuous and vicious circles. Those companies that had extremely high market caps despite big losses could sell shares and raise a lot of money to expand very fast with minimal dilution. If IQST were to sell shares to acquire quality companies there would be a lot of dilution because the pps is not absurdly high.

[snow]

I note that TMUS has a net profit margin of about 10%. If that had been realistic for IQST in a few years I would have been much more optimistic when it comes to the future stock price. My assessments have been based on another company in telecom that had a net profit margin of 3%. It is crucial what net profit margin can be expected in a few years. The quality of management is crucial when it comes to future prospects. I listened for a while to the CEO of this company a few weeks ago. He did not convince me at all and came across as being mediocre. I have read some posts here about what has happened in the past. They suggest that there are a lot of bag-holders in this stock owing to poor past performance. That hardly bodes well for the future.

[snow]

Boiler "Are you seriously dumb enough to value the company based on P/E ratios and 500k earnings?" You would seem to be way more stupid because you seem to think that a p/e ratio is based on quarterly operating income, which I referred to. Don't you take the projections of management seriously. My number was based on a projection he has repeated a couple of times as far as I remember. Of course I pay attention to more than earnings per share this year. You were happy with my referring to a certain company in telecom. It was well established but had a net profit margin of only 3 percent. It would seem that in a best-case scenario IQST can only hope for a very modest net profit margin.

A p/s of 1 is in my view too high in a best-case scenario several years into the future when a company that can be expected to grow close to 30% for years to come and last year had a net profit margin after full taxation of 13%, and even so had a p/s of less than 2 and trades on NASDAQ. It suggests that a NASDAQ listing is not a panacea for this company.

In fact I will not be surprised if this company generates net profits of 3 million dollars this year. That is actually more or less my expectation. It would imply a p/e ratio in the range 15 - 20 and would suggest that this stock is roughly fully priced. In a few years net profits may be 10 million dollars. But what will the O/S be if that happens. Of course worthwhile acquisitions don't come free of charge.

"Even a P/S ratio of 1 this year is like 300M revenue / 176.8M current shares = $1.70 SP." With a possible net profit margin of 1% a p/s of 1 is in my view far too high when a NASDAQ company that has a net profit margin of 13% trades at a p/s of less than two. A p/s of .15 would seem more realistic if the point of departure is that other company.

I know of course that IQST cannot be valued based on a p/e ratio based on the loss last year.

"And you're ignorant if you think they'll only do 500k." If I am ignorant you are dishonest. I referred to a number used by the CEO several times: operating income per quarter.

I never said this is a bad investment. My point of departure for my post was your absurd assertion om stocktwits that if this stock had been trading on NASDAQ the pps would have been 10 times what it is. How profits evolve during coming years will to a high degree depend on how much IQST will have to pay for coming acquisitions. That is unknown at this stage.

[Boiler_Master]

Netflix. First profitable year was 2003. Revenue that year increased 80% to 270M. Net income was only 7M. They closed 2003 with a market cap of 1.12 billion. That's a P/E ratio of 160 and a P/S ratio of 4.1. Same valuations for IQST would be dollars not pennies.

You want to know IQST's value? Look historically at the values of companies that did what IQST is currently doing. Turning profitable while growing over 100% the same year while doing hundreds of millions in sales. Not many companies have accomplished that. But the ones who did were worth a hell of alot more than 58 million, and most of them became blue chips. Don't listen to the bashers saying the company is worthless. Do some research and compare what other companies were valued at when they were in their early stages still showing hyper growth and slim margins then decide for yourself.

[Boiler_Master]

TMUS (T-mobile) is an excellent example Snow. Looking at their valuations, they first became profitable in 2013 showing a net income of 35 million. Their market cap in 2013 was 26.97 billion. That was a P/E ratio of 770. Google it.

Their revenue that year was 24.42 billion so the 26.97B market cap was a P/S ratio of 1.1 which was realistic and the kind of valuation I say is fair.

For IQST even your bearish guess of 2M net at the same P/E T-mobile had their first profitable year would be a market cap of 1.54B. With current shares of 176.8M that is a share price of $8.71

[Boiler_Master]

Because you aren't smart enough to understand the basics. As you said, "in anticipation of earnings". How much earnings are we anticipating this year, next year, and 3 years out? Are you seriously dumb enough to value the company based on P/E ratios and 500k earnings?

Value the stock based on 500k earnings if you want. But when they show like 3 million, increase your price target 6x. When they show 10M increase your price target 20x.

Why would IQST trade at a P/S of 2? Whatever, say it's worth a P/S of 1. This year sales are on track to double, so whatever valuation you came up with based on sales, in 7 months double it. Even a P/S ratio of 1 this year is like 300M revenue / 176.8M current shares = $1.70 SP.

Talk all the shit you want about low valuations based on earnings, but anyone with a brain knows you can't value the company on earnings when last year they showed a loss. "If" they only show 500k profit this year, they could easily 10x that to 5M next year. Then a dumbass like you is left wondering how the value increased 1,000% in only a year because you're the only one stupid enough not to project further ahead than 7 months. And you're ignorant if you think they'll only do 500k, QXTEL alone does over 1M net income and they were profitable before acquiring QXTEL.

You're annoying as fuck. It's like when you referenced T-mobile attempting to bash IQST based on T-mobile's current P/E ratio. So I looked at T-mobile's history and found their first profitable year when they were a high growth company with slim margins, they were trading at a P/E ratio of 770. That's because people knew earnings would increase significantly YOY. As you said, "in anticipation of earnings". And like I said, 500k to 5M is a 1,000% increase in earnings.

IQST improved their net income by 5 million YOY in 2023 and achieved profitability in Q3 and Q4. Gross profit increased 161% and gross revenue increased 55%. This year they're on track to grow over 100% and have told us margins continued to improve, and acquired another profitable subsidiary. No one in their right mind would say this is a bad investment.

[Big RDC]

100% right Bro $$$ IQST $$$$

[snow]

A post on stocktwits states: "On Nasdaq, it would be worth 10x this value, and that's not an exaggeration. I imagine we'll be there soon." The implication is that it would have a value of more than 600 million dollars on Nasdaq despite the fact that the gross operating project repeatedly has been projected to be 500,000 dollars per quarter this year. A very successful company on Nasdaq had a net profit margin of 13% and grew its revenues 43% last year. It trades at a p/e ratio of about 13 in relation to anticipated earnings per share this year. Anybody who is curious about the ticker to see if I am veracious could ask oldman who has received it in a private message. Why would IQST that is barely profitable trade at a p/s (price in relation to sales) of about two when another Nasdaq listed company with excellent future prospects that has a net profit margin of 13% and a p/s of less than 2? (After reading the absurd optimism on stocktwits I could not suppress the temptation to write the above here because I am not entitled to post anything on stocktwits).

[Boiler_Master]

Funny thing is they don't even need the acquisitions to do it. They grew 55% last year and became profitable without any acquisitions. And Q1 was over 50M revenue so they were gonna blow past 200M this year on organic growth alone. These acquisitions are a nice bonus tho lol.

[oldman69]

I think us looongs are all waiting for that great push upward that I believe is inevitable, as long as $IQST keeps acquiring profitable businesses increasing margins!!!
