TSS, Inc. Reports Strong Second Quarter 2024 Results
345% growth in Net Income and 62% improvement in Adjusted EBITDA compared to Q2 2023
ROUND ROCK, Texas, Aug. 14, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- TSS, Inc. (OTCQB: TSSI), a data center services company that integrates AI and other high-performance computing infrastructure and software, today reported results for its second quarter and six-month period ended June 30, 2024.
“During Q2, we made a significant investment in our production capacity, which came online at the beginning of June,” said Darryll Dewan, CEO of TSS. “This expansion, compounded with process improvements, has significantly increased our volume capacity for rack integration and decreased the cycle time to complete each rack within our existing facility. The expansion was driven primarily by the surge in demand for server rack builds related to generative AI, as the AI market expands as a whole.”
“To be clear, the volume ramp we've been anticipating is now underway. Our OEM customers have robust pipelines and we are seeing their deals beginning to close including one significant program the was started in the second quarter and will more dramatically impact the third quarter. We believe our Q2 performance was a harbinger of results to come. Our strategic inclusion in key customer programs signals a bright future as OEM pipelines materialize.”

About Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Adjusted EBITDA is a supplemental financial measure not defined under Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) before net interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, impairment loss on goodwill and other intangibles, stock-based compensation, provision for bad debts and certain extraordinary items. We present Adjusted EBITDA because we believe this supplemental measure of operating performance is helpful in comparing our operating results across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that may, or could, have a disproportionately positive or negative impact on our results of operations in any particular period. We also use Adjusted EBITDA as a factor in evaluating the performance of certain management personnel when determining incentive compensation.
Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. Adjusted EBITDA, while providing useful information, should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to net income or cash flows as determined under GAAP. Consistent with Regulation G under the U.S. federal securities laws, Adjusted EBITDA has been reconciled to the nearest GAAP measure, and this reconciliation is located under the heading “Adjusted EBITDA Reconciliation” following the Consolidated Statements of Operations included in this press release.
