IQSTEL Inc. (NASDAQ: IQST) announced a $500,000 stock dividend to be paid on December 30, 2025, with a record date of December 15, 2025. The dividend will be distributed in free‑trading IQST common shares at a ratio of 0.0173 shares per share held, based on the August 29 closing price of $6.62, which equates to roughly 75,529 shares. No cash in lieu will be issued.
The dividend marks the company’s first capital‑return to shareholders after a long period of no dividends, signaling management’s confidence in cash flow and a commitment to returning value. It follows a strategic partnership with Cycurion Inc. (NASDAQ: CYCU) that has strengthened IQSTEL’s AI‑driven cybersecurity roadmap and underpins the decision to initiate a regular dividend program.
Financially, IQSTEL reported Q3 2025 revenue of $102.8 million, a 42% sequential increase and a 90% year‑over‑year jump, while remaining debt‑free. The strong revenue growth and solid balance sheet support the dividend and align with the company’s $1 billion revenue target by 2027. The dividend is part of a broader shareholder‑value strategy that includes regular capital returns tied to performance.
CEO Leandro Iglesias said the dividend “is a testament to our vision, our execution, and our unwavering dedication to rewarding those who believe in our mission.” He added that IQSTEL intends to issue dividends annually, linked to performance, as it enters a new growth phase.
While no immediate market‑reaction data is available, the dividend is viewed as a milestone in IQSTEL’s shareholder‑value strategy and a signal of the company’s confidence in its long‑term trajectory.
