If you are looking for current quarter you can do this.
$tm = date('Y-m-d H:i:s');
$Current_Fiscal_Quarter = ceil(date("m", $tm)/3);
This will return the quarter you are currently in.
Exmaple 1, 2, 3,or 4
I have a great quarterly dates function posted on php.net

Subject: Fiscal Years and Quarters
Hello,
I have a preference field called "Fiscal_Year_Start_Month" which has
the Month Names as options.
Based on this value, I need to calculate the following date in UNIX:
Current_1st_Quarter_Start_Date
Current_1st_Quarter_End_Date
Current_2nd_Quarter_Start_Date
Current_2nd_Quarter_End_Date
Current_3rd_Quarter_Start_Date
Current_3rd_Quarter_End_Date
Current_4th_Quarter_Start_Date
Current_4th_Quarter_End_Date
Last_1st_Quarter_Start_Date
Last_1st_Quarter_End_Date
Last_2nd_Quarter_Start_Date
Last_2nd_Quarter_End_Date
Last_3rd_Quarter_Start_Date
Last_3rd_Quarter_End_Date
Last_4th_Quarter_Start_Date
Last_4th_Quarter_End_Date
Next_1st_Quarter_Start_Date
Next_1st_Quarter_End_Date
Next_2nd_Quarter_Start_Date
Next_2nd_Quarter_End_Date
Next_3rd_Quarter_Start_Date
Next_3rd_Quarter_End_Date
Next_4th_Quarter_Start_Date
Next_4th_Quarter_End_Date
Then based on TODAY'S date
Current_Fiscal_Quarter - result will be 1, 2, 3,or 4
