$IQST News: IQSTEL and Cycurion Execute $1 Million Stock Exchange, Announce Dividend Distribution and Strategic AI Cybersecurity Alliance
Wed, September 3, 2025 at 8:30 AM EDT 6 min read
NEW YORK, Sept. 03, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- IQSTEL Inc. (NASDAQ: IQST) (“IQSTEL”) and Cycurion Inc. (NASDAQ: CYCU) (“Cycurion”) today announced the execution of their previously announced $1 million stock exchange, finalizing the mutual equity agreement that aligns both companies and strengthens their alliance to build a next-generation AI-driven cybersecurity powerhouse.
Under the terms of the agreement, each company will issue $1 million worth of its common stock to the other. The number of shares will be calculated by dividing USD $1,000,000 by the applicable per-share price of the issuing company’s common stock. The per-share price will be the lower of:
(i)
the Nasdaq Official Closing Price on the trading day immediately preceding the execution of the agreement (September 2, 2025), or
(ii)
the average Nasdaq Official Closing Price over the five consecutive trading days immediately preceding September 2, 2025.
The exact number of IQSTEL and Cycurion shares to be issued will be confirmed in writing by both parties.
Note: Both parties will complete all necessary regulatory approvals for the issuance and distribution of the dividends and will make a proper public announcement once approvals are obtained.
Dividend Distribution – Enhancing Shareholder Value
Consistent with the agreement, each company plans to distribute up to 50% of the shares it receives as a stock dividend to its shareholders.
IQSTEL shareholders will receive Cycurion shares as a dividend.
Cycurion shareholders will receive IQSTEL shares as a dividend.
This dividend effectively transforms investors of each company into co-owners of both businesses, creating stronger alignment and reinforcing the alliance’s long-term potential. The record date for the dividend will be announced later in a joint communication once the definitive regulatory steps are completed. Importantly, short sellers will not be entitled to the dividend.
Unlocking Shareholder Value
We believe this stock exchange cements the foundation of a mutual equity structure designed to align long-term interests, foster cross-selling opportunities, and maximize value creation. Together, IQSTEL and Cycurion represent a combined shareholder base of over 30,000 shareholders and weekly market liquidity in the millions of U.S. dollars.
“This transaction is transformative for both companies,” said Leandro Iglesias, CEO of IQSTEL. “By delivering immediate value through the planned dividend distribution and aligning our equity structures, we are setting a new standard for collaboration in AI-driven cybersecurity and connectivity.”
L. Kevin Kelly, CEO of Cycurion, added: “Finalizing this stock exchange unlocks the next phase of our collaboration. As equity partners, our strengths in U.S. government markets and global telecom will create powerful synergies for innovation and growth.”
Complementary Strengths – Powerful Synergies
IQSTEL brings a global business platform in telecommunications, fintech, AI, and digital services, with established relationships across 600+ telecom operators worldwide.
Cycurion contributes deep expertise in AI-driven cybersecurity with a strong foothold in the U.S. and government markets.
Together, the companies will:
Develop and launch a state-of-the-art AI-driven cybersecurity solution, combining IQSTEL’s AI proprietary technologies with Cycurion’s cybersecurity expertise.
Cross-sell services, giving IQSTEL the ability to bring Cycurion’s cybersecurity products to its telecom clients worldwide, while Cycurion gains access to IQSTEL’s fintech and AI-driven offerings.
Accelerate product innovation through integrated R&D efforts, bringing next-gen cybersecurity and AI solutions to market faster.
Looking Ahead
This executed transaction marks only the beginning of IQSTEL and Cycurion’s mutual equity journey. Both companies continue to explore opportunities for deeper collaboration, including joint ventures, expanded AI R&D, and new go-to-market strategies designed to scale revenues and capture additional market share.
