What does Q mean?

Quarter (Q) refers to one of four equal parts of a year, typically a 3-month period.
The quarters are numbered Q1, Q2, Q3, and Q4, representing the first, second, third, and fourth quarters respectively. Companies typically report their financial results on a quarterly basis.

Note:
A financial year is typically divided into four equal quarters, but the dates for each quarter can vary depending on the country or organization.
For example, the financial year usually runs from January to December, and the quarters are as follows: Q1- January - March, Q2 - April - June, Q3 - July - September, and Q4 - October - December.
However, the financial year may start on a different month and the quarters may also be different.
