achieve our stated 2022 objectives. Today, will focus on the 2021
results and in a follow-up letter later this week, I will address

2022 objectives.
iQSTEL’s 2021 revenue increased 44% year over year to $64.7
million, and the gross profit increased 59%. Increasing revenues
and improving gross margins contributed to a substantial bottom
line improvement with the company’s consolidated net loss
decreasing 42% year over year. The company’s balance sheet also
improved dramatically resulting in an overall 368% increase in
shareholder equity.
