The author must drive a Ford. Notice how he refers to the first quarter as "Q1". (Remember Ford's slogan "Quality is Job 1" or "Q1"?) Or to put it another way, I've never seen or heard a quarter (crumulently) referenced as "Q[number of quarter] before.

Q1 / Q2 / Q3 / Q4 Is very common in the business world. Been using it for 20+ years.

No, Q1 is a correct and commonly used abbreviation for Quarter 1.
