F- 4 Table of Contents iQSTEL INC Notes to the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements June 30, 2021 NOTE 1 -ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS Organization and Operations iQSTEL Inc. (“iQSTEL”, “we”, “us”, or the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on June 24, 2011 under the name of B-Maven Inc. The Company changed its name to PureSnax International, Inc. on September 18, 2015; and more recently it changed its name to iQSTEL Inc. on August 7, 2018. The Company has been engaged in the business of telecommunication services as a wholesale carrier of voice, SMS and data for other telecom companies around the World with more than 150 active interconnection agreements with mobile companies, fixed line companies and other wholesale carriers. The Company incorporated a 75% owned subsidiary, Global Money One Inc. under the laws of the state of Delaware, on November 16, 2020. COVID-19 A novel strain of coronavirus (COVID-19) was first identified in December 2019, and subsequently declared a global pandemic by the World Health Organization on March 11, 2020. As a result of the outbreak, many companies have experienced disruptions in their operations and in markets served. The Company has instituted some and may take additional temporary precautionary measures intended to help ensure the well-being of its employees and minimize business disruption. The Company considered the impact of COVID-19 on the assumptions and estimates used and determined that there were no material adverse impacts on the Company’s results of operations and financial position at June 30, 2021. The full extent of the future impacts of COVID-19 on the Company’s operations is uncertain. A prolonged outbreak could have a material adverse impact on financial results and business operations of the Company, including the timing and ability of the Company to collect accounts receivable and the ability of the Company to continue to provide high quality services to its clients. The Company is not aware of any specific event or circumstance that would require an update to its estimates or judgments or a revision of the carrying value of its assets or liabilities as of May 14, 2021, the date of issuance of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. These estimates may change, as new events occur and additional information is obtained. 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 for annual financial statements. In the opinion of the Company’s management, the accompanying unaudited interim 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, 2021 and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full fiscal year or any future period. These unaudited 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, 2020 filed with the SEC on April 15, 2021. F- 5 Table of Contents Consolidation Policy The consolidated financial statements of the Company include the accounts of the Company and its owned subsidiaries, Etelix.com USA, LLC, SwissLink Carrier AG, ITSBCHAIN, LLC, QGLOBAL SMS, LLC, IoT Labs, LLC and Global Money one Inc.. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. 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. Foreign Currency Translation and Re-measurement The Company translates its foreign operations to U.S. dollar in accordance with ASC 830, “ Foreign Currency Matters ”. The Company’s, Etelix’s, QGlobal’s, Itsbchain, IoT Labs and Global Money One’s functional currency and reporting currency is the U.S. dollar, SwissLink’s functional currency is the Swiss Franc (“CHF”). The Company’s subsidiaries, whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar, translate their records into U.S. dollar as follows: • Assets and liabilities at the rate of exchange in effect at the balance sheet date • Equities at historical rate • Revenue and expense items at the average rate of exchange prevailing during the period Adjustments arising from such translations are included in accumulated other comprehensive income in shareholders’ equity. 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 reviews its allowance for doubtful accounts daily, past due balances over 60 days and a specified amount are reviewed individually for collectability. Account balances are charged off after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. During the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company did not record bad debt expense. F- 6 Table of Contents Net Income (Loss) Per Share of Common Stock The Company has adopted 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. There were no potentially dilutive shares of common stock outstanding for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020. 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 and related party payables that it will likely incur in the near future. 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. During the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, 5 customers represented 87 % of our revenues and 4 customers represented 86 % of our revenues, respectively. Revenue Recognition The Company recognizes revenue from telecommunication services in accordance with ASC 606, “ Revenue from Contracts with Customers.” 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 existed, and collection was reasonably assured. Management considers persuasive evidence of a sales arrangement to be a written interconnection agreement. The Company’s payment terms vary by clients. Retirement Benefit Costs Payments to defined contribution retirement benefit schemes are charged as an expense as they fall due. Payments made to state-managed retirement benefit schemes are dealt with as payments to defined contribution schemes where the Company’s obligations under the schemes are equivalent to those arising in a defined contribution retirement benefit scheme. For defined benefit schemes, the cost of providing benefits is determined using the Projected Unit Credit Method, with actuarial valuations being carried out at each balance sheet date. Actuarial gains and losses are recognized in full in the period in which they occur. They are recognized outside the income statement and are presented in other comprehensive income. Past service cost is recognized immediately in the income statement in the period in which it occurs. The retirement benefit obligation recognized in the balance sheet represents the present value of the defined obligation as adjusted for unrecognized past service cost, and as reduced by the fair value of the scheme assets. Any asset resulting from this calculation is limited to past service cost, plus the present value of available refunds and reductions in future contributions to the scheme. Recent Accounting Pronouncements Management has considered all recent accounting pronouncements issued since the last audit of our financial statements. The Company’s management believes that these recent pronouncements will not have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements. F- 7 Table of Contents 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, has negative stockholder’s equity 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. 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.

The corresponding derivative liability at the date of conversion of $ 708,611 was settled through additional paid in capital. NOTE 7 – DERIVATIVE LIABILITY The Company analyzed the conversion option for derivative accounting consideration under ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging , and determined that the instrument should be classified as a liability since the conversion option becomes effective at issuance resulting in there being no explicit limit to the number of shares to be delivered upon settlement of the above conversion options. Fair Value Assumptions Used in Accounting for Derivative Liabilities ASC 815 requires we assess the fair market value of derivative liability at the end of each reporting period and recognize any change in the fair market value as other income or expense item. The Company determined our derivative liabilities to be a Level 3 fair value measurement and used the Black-Scholes pricing model to calculate the fair value as of June 30, 2021. The Black-Scholes model requires six basic data inputs: the exercise or strike price, time to expiration, the risk free interest rate, the current stock price, the estimated volatility of the stock price in the future, and the dividend rate. Changes to these inputs could produce a significantly higher or lower fair value measurement. For the six months ended June 30, 2021 and the year ended December 31, 2020, the estimated fair values of the liabilities measured on a recurring basis are as follows: Six months Ended Year ended June 30, December 31, 2021 2020 Expected term 0.16 - 1.18 years 0.02 - 6.00 years Expected average volatility 145 % - 241 % 74 % - 550 % Expected dividend yield — — Risk-free interest rate 0.07 % - 0.09 % 0.05 % - 2.56 % F- 11 Table of Contents The following table summarizes the changes in the derivative liabilities during the six months ended June 30, 2021: Fair Value Measurements Using Significant Observable Inputs (Level 3) Balance - December 31, 2020 $ 1,025,691 Settled on issuance of common stock ( 708,611 ) Change in fair value of the derivative ( 317,080 ) Balance - June 30, 2021 $ — The following table summarizes the change in fair value of derivative liability included in the income statement for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

NOTE 13 – SUBSEQUENT EVENT Subsequent to June 30, 2021 and through the date that these financials were made available, the Company had the following subsequent events: On July 13, 2021 the Company filed a Post-Qualification Offering Circular Amendment No. 5 (the “Amendment”) amending the Offering Circular of the Company, dated February 19, 2019, as qualified on December 9, 2019; amended by Amendment No. 4, dated January 11, 2021, as qualified on January 14, 2021.

We have sold a total of 59,800,000 shares of common stock so far in the offering and we plan to sell 20,200,000 additional common shares according to this Amendment. This Amendment also excludes from this offering the 900,000 shares of our common stock from our selling shareholder, which were unsold in the offering. On August 4, 2021 the Company filed Supplement No. 1 to the offering circular dated July 13, 2021 establishing the price of the shares being registered of $ 0.50 per share.

We intend such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe-harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, and are including this statement for purposes of complying with those safe-harbor provisions. Forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and assumptions that are subject to risks and uncertainties which may cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements.

Results of Operations Revenues Our total revenue reported for the three months ended June 30, 2021 was $16,128,367, compared with $11,130,086 for the three months ended June 30, 2020. These numbers reflect an increase of 44.91% quarter over quarter on our consolidated revenues. Our total revenue reported for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was $30,325,978, compared with $16,147,498 for the six months ended June 30, 2020. When looking at the numbers by subsidiary, we have the following breakout for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2020: 4 Table of Contents Subsidiary Revenue Six Months Ended June 30, 2021 Revenue Six Months Ended June 30, 2020 Etelix.com USA, LLC $ 7,481,915 $ 7,221,345 SwissLink Carrier AG 2,284,985 2,381,204 QGlobal LLC 502,431 163,546 IoT Labs LLC 20,056,647 6,381,403 $ 30,325,978 $ 16,147,498 The continued growth of our revenue is the result of the development of our business strategy, which includes the strengthening of our commercial and operating activities and new acquisitions. Cost of Revenues Our total cost of revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2021 increased to $16,083,802, compared with $10,397,778 for the three months ended June 30, 2020. Our total cost of revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2021 increased to $29,794,043, compared with $15,576,331 for the six months ended June 30, 2020. When looking at the numbers by subsidiary, we have the following breakout for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2020: Subsidiary Cost of Revenue Six Months Ended June 30, 2021 Cost of Revenue Six Months Ended June 30, 2020 Etelix.com USA, LLC $ 7,338,609 $ 7,217,330 SwissLink Carrier AG 2,029,483 2,069,935 QGlobal LLC 419,810 102,231 IoT Labs LLC 20,006,141 6,186,835 $ 29,794,043 $ 15,576,331 Our cost of revenues 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. We have reached a higher volume of sales and every additional unit sold (minutes and SMS) has its corresponding termination cost. 5 Table of Contents Operating Expenses Operating expenses increased to $1,209,167 for the three months ended June 30, 2021 from $905,016 for the three months ended June 30, 2020. Operating expenses increased to $2,707,278 for the six months ended June 30, 2021 from $2,202,543 for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The detail by major category for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 is reflected in the table below. Six Months Ended June 30, 2021 2020 Salaries, Wages and Benefits $ 560,618 $ 562,427 Technology 216,428 28,100 Professional Fees 232,216 214,853 Legal & Regulatory 50,627 3,224 Bad debts — 76,375 Travel & Events 5,430 1,341 Public Cost 24,331 49,732 Advertising 487,825 583,079 Bank Services and Fees 58,309 35,926 Depreciation and Amortization 42,421 31,140 Office, Facility and Other 142,977 116,312 Sub Total 1,821,182 1,702,509 Stock-based compensation 886,096 500,034 Total Operating Expense $ 2,707,278 $ 2,202,543 The main reasons for the overall increase in operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the same period of 2020 is due to the following: (1) Technology as a result of the development of the blockchain solutions, the IoT devices, and the fintech platform; (2) Legal & Regulatory expenses due to the IoT devices certification process; and (3) Stock-based compensation. Six Months Ended June 30, 2021 2020 Difference iQSTEL $ 1,993,964 $ 1,587,992 $ 405,972 Etelix 162,674 184,100 (21,426 ) Swisslink 368,537 328,483 40,054 ItsBchain 1,450 52,684 (51,234 ) QGlobal 56,138 29,952 26,186 IoT Labs 70,142 19,332 50,810 Global Money One 54,373 — 54,373 $ 2,707,278 $ 2,202,543 $ 504,735 6 Table of Contents Operating Income The Company showed negative Operating Income for the three months ended June 30, 2021 of $1,164,602 compared with a negative result of $172,708 for the three months ended June 30, 2020. The Company showed negative Operating Income for the six months ended June 30, 2021 of $2,175,343 compared with a negative result of $1,631,376 for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The increase of the numbers for the six month period above is primarily due to the costs associated with the operation of the public entity (iQSTEL, Inc.) that increases in $405,972 year over year. Other Expenses/Other Income We had other income of $42,230 for the three months ended June 30, 2021, as compared with other income of $1,550,173 for the same period ended 2020. We had other expenses of $825,518 for the six months ended June 30, 2021, as compared with other expenses of $900,362 for the same period ended 2020. The decrease in other expenses is mainly due to the reduction in the interest expenses. Net Income We finished the three months ended June 30, 2021 with a loss of $1,122,372, as compared to a net income of $1,377,465 during the three months ended June 30, 2020. We finished the six months ended June 30, 2021 with a loss of $3,000,861, as compared to a loss of $2,531,738 during the six months ended June 30, 2020. The reasons for specific components are discussed above. Overall, these are the main concepts impacting the net result: (1) a reduction in the gross profit during the three months ended June 30, 2021; and (2) the increase of the Operating Expenses of the public entity. Liquidity and Capital Resources As of June 30, 2021, we had total current assets of $5,563,449 and current liabilities of $4,187,907, resulting in a positive working capital of $1,375,542. This compares with the working capital deficit of $4,330,355 at December 31, 2020. This increase in working capital, as discussed in more detail below, is primarily the result of the increase of $1,096,154 in the cash position and a reduction of $3,433,224 in the liabilities (loans, convertible notes and derivatives). Our operating activities used $2,093,398 in the six months ended June 30, 2021 as compared with $1,126,307 used in operating activities in the six months ended June 30, 2020. Investing activities used $152,864 for the six months ended June 30, 2021. Uses of funds on investing activities were the purchase of property and equipment for value of $68,844 and net payment of loans between related parties of $24,220, and acquisition of subsidiary of $60,000. 7 Table of Contents Financing activities provided $3,353,854 in the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared with $1,626,500 provided in the six months ended June 30, 2020. Our positive financing cash flow in 2021 was largely the result of the proceed from the subscription of new common stocks under our Regulation A offering of $3,586,250. The working capital and the cash position of the company has improved significantly; but based upon our current financial condition, we do not have sufficient cash to operate our business at the current level for the next twelve months. We intend to fund operations through increased sales and debt and/or equity financing arrangements, which may be insufficient to fund expenditures or other cash requirements. The Company has received the qualification of an Offering Statement under Regulation A for the sale of up to 20,200,000 common shares. This offering is being conducted on a “best efforts” basis, which means that there is no guarantee that any minimum amount will be sold. We also plan to seek additional financing in a 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, 2021. 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, 2021; however, we consider our critical accounting policies to be those related to allowance for doubtful accounts, valuation of assets, significant estimates in the valuation of convertible debt 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, 2021, there were no off-balance sheet arrangements. Recent Accounting Pronouncements In December 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standard Update No. 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes (ASU 2019-12), which simplifies the accounting for income taxes. This guidance will be effective for entities for the fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2020 on a prospective basis, with early adoption permitted. We adopted the new standard effective January 1, 2021 and did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. 8 Table of Contents In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, ASC Subtopic 470-20 “Debt—Debt with “Conversion and Other Options” and ASC subtopic 815-40 “Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity”. The standard reduced the number of accounting models for convertible debt instruments and convertible preferred stock. Convertible instruments that continue to be subject to separation models are (1) those with embedded conversion features that are not clearly and closely related to the host contract, that meet the definition of a derivative, and that do not qualify for a scope exception from derivative accounting; and (2) convertible debt instruments issued with substantial premiums for which the premiums are recorded as paid-in capital. The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently assessing the impact of the adoption of this standard on its consolidated financial statements. 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, 2021. 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. 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, 2021, 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. 9 Table of Contents PART II – OTHER INFORMATION Item 1.
