**Item 8.01. Other Events.** 

On June 5, 2026, the Board of Directors (the "Board") of iQSTEL Inc. (the "Company") authorized and approved a share repurchase program for up to 1,000,000 shares of the currently outstanding shares of the Company's common stock, funded in whole or in part by cash dividends received from the Company's subsidiary QXTEL. The repurchase program has no expiration date and will continue until the maximum number of shares authorized have been repurchased or until the program is suspended, modified, or terminated by the Board. Under the stock repurchase program, the Company intends to repurchase shares through open market purchases, privately-negotiated transactions, block purchases or otherwise in accordance with applicable federal securities laws, including Rule 10b-18 of the Exchange Act.

The Board also authorized the Company to enter into written trading plans under Rule 10b5-1 of the Exchange Act. Adopting a trading plan that satisfies the conditions of Rule 10b5-1 allows the Company to repurchase its shares at times when it might otherwise be prevented from doing so due to self-imposed trading blackout periods or pursuant to insider trading laws. Under any Rule 10b5-1 trading plan, the Company's third-party broker, subject to Securities and Exchange Commission regulations regarding certain price, market, volume and timing constraints, would have authority to purchase the Company's common stock in accordance with the terms of the plan. The Company may from time to time enter into Rule 10b5-1 trading plans to facilitate the repurchase of its common stock pursuant to its share repurchase program.

The Company cannot predict when or if it will repurchase any shares of common stock as such stock repurchase program will depend on a number of factors, including constraints specified in any Rule 10b5-1 trading plans, price, general business and market conditions, and alternative investment opportunities. Information regarding share repurchases will be available in the Company's periodic reports on Form 10-Q and 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission as required by the applicable rules of the Exchange Act.

This report contains forward-looking information, as that term is defined under the Exchange Act, including information regarding purchases by the Company of its common stock pursuant to any Rule 10b5-1 trading plans. By their nature, forward-looking information and statements are subject to risks, uncertainties, and contingencies, including changes in price and volume and the volatility of the Company's common stock; adverse developments affecting either or both of prices and trading of exchange-traded securities; and unexpected or otherwise unplanned or alternative requirements with respect to the capital investments of the Company. The Company does not undertake to update any forward-looking statements or information, including those contained in this report.

On June 8, 2026, the Company issued a press release concerning the repurchase program. A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.

## Exhibit 99.1

**IQST - IQSTEL Launches Share Repurchase Program, Signaling Strong Confidence in the Company's Intrinsic Value and Long-Term Growth Strategy**

***Board Authorizes Repurchase of Up to 1,000,000 Shares as Management and Directors Take Action to Capitalize on What They Believe Is a Significant Disconnect Between Market Valuation and Business Fundamentals***

**NEW YORK, NY – June 8, 2026** – IQSTEL Inc. (NASDAQ: **IQST**), a rapidly growing multinational technology company serving the Telecom, Fintech, AI, Cybersecurity, and Digital Services sectors, today announced that its Board of Directors has authorized a **share repurchase program of up to 1,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock.**

**The program will be funded, in whole or in part, by cash dividends received from QXTEL, one of IQSTEL's operating subsidiaries.** The authorization reflects the Board's confidence in the Company's financial strength, long-term growth prospects, and belief that the current market valuation does not adequately reflect the value of the business platform the Company has built.

Over the last several years, IQSTEL has transformed itself into a diversified technology group with operations spanning multiple high-growth sectors. The Company has consistently expanded revenue, strengthened its balance sheet, completed strategic acquisitions, achieved a NASDAQ listing, and established a commercial platform that already reaches more than 600 telecom operators worldwide, providing access to approximately 2.3 billion end users.

Despite these achievements, management believes the Company's current valuation fails to reflect its operational scale, asset base, balance sheet strength, growth trajectory, and future earnings potential.

*"As I have stated previously, we believe the recent decline in IQSTEL's share price is disconnected from the underlying value of our business,"* said **Leandro Iglesias, CEO of IQSTEL**. ***"Today, IQSTEL is stronger than ever. We have built a business generating hundreds of millions of dollars in annual revenue, possess tens of millions of dollars in assets, maintain a solid stockholders' equity position, and have no outstanding convertible notes or warrants.***

*Given these fundamentals, our Board believes that repurchasing shares at current market prices represents an attractive opportunity to create value for our shareholders. This authorization reflects our confidence in the long-term future of IQSTEL and our conviction that the current market valuation does not adequately reflect the true value of the Company, its assets, its operating platform, and its growth prospects.*

*We also recently announced the signing of a **Binding MOU to acquire a 51% interest in Ultranet Telecom Group, a transaction that, based on Ultranet's audited financial statements, is expected to increase IQSTEL's net income from operations by approximately 4X** while further strengthening our global business platform.*

*We believe this transaction has the potential to significantly increase the intrinsic value of IQSTEL. **As the Company enters a new phase focused on EBITDA expansion and profitability growth, this acquisition represents a major step forward. Based on Ultranet's FY 2025 audited financial statements, the transaction is expected to contribute approximately $4.5 million in annual net income, significantly enhancing IQSTEL's earnings profile**, strengthening our financial position, and further increasing the intrinsic value of the Company.*

*The share repurchase authorization is part of a broader corporate strategy designed to address what we believe is a significant disconnect between the market capitalization of the Company and the underlying value of its business. Through continued execution, strategic acquisitions, balance sheet strengthening, and disciplined capital allocation initiatives such as this repurchase program, we remain focused on unlocking shareholder value and ensuring that the market ultimately recognizes the true scale and potential of IQSTEL."*

**The Company remains committed to evaluating all available opportunities to maximize shareholder returns and unlock value for investors.**

The complete terms and details of the share repurchase program will be disclosed in a Current Report on **Form 8-K that the Company expects to file with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).**
