ROUND ROCK, Texas, Aug. 17, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- TSS, Inc. (Other OTC: TSSI), a data center facilities and technology services company, reported results for its second quarter ended June 30, 2020.

Second Quarter Highlights:

  • Second quarter 2020 revenue of $6.5 million compared with $3.5 million in the second quarter of 2019 and $10.6 million in the first quarter of 2020.
  • Gross margin of 12% in the second quarter of 2020 compared with 41% in the second quarter of 2019 and 15% in the first quarter of 2020.
  • Operating loss of $949,000 in the second quarter of 2020 compared with operating income of $2,000 in the second quarter of 2019
  • Net loss of $1 million or $(0.06) per share in the second quarter of 2020 compared to net loss of $94,000 or $(0.01) per share in the second quarter of 2019.
  • Adjusted EBITDA loss of $724,000 compared with Adjusted EBITDA of $168,000 in the second quarter of 2019.

“As most companies, we faced a very different business environment in the second quarter primarily driven by the escalation of the COVID-19 pandemic. While we were able to maintain operations during the period, there were a number of internal and external changes to our operations that affected our revenue and costs. Our ability to deliver and deploy at customer locations were subject to changes in timing and particular safety protocols,” said Anthony Angelini, President and Chief Executive Officer of TSS. “We are seeing these issues resolve themselves and are able to proceed under the protocols of the new normal. We expect our third quarter to be especially strong both in revenue and profitability as we make up for deliveries and deployments from the second quarter and have a strong stream of third quarter business. Beyond the third quarter, we expect continued growth in technology infrastructure which directly aligns with the services we provide and should provide an ongoing stream of revenue from all aspects of our business.”

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 interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, impairment loss on goodwill and other intangibles, stock-based compensation, and provision for bad debts. 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 non-cash items that may, or could, have a disproportionate 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.

This press release may contain “forward-looking statements” -- that is, statements related to future -- not past -- events, plans, and prospects.

Particular uncertainties that could adversely or positively affect the Company's future results include: we may not have sufficient resources to fund our business and may need to issue debt or equity to obtain additional funding; our reliance on a significant portion of our revenues from a limited number of customers; risks relating to operating in a highly competitive industry; risks relating to the failure to maintain effective internal control over financial reporting; risks relating to rapid technological, structural, and competitive changes affecting the industries we serve; risks involved in properly managing complex projects; risks relating to the possible cancellation of customer contracts on short notice; risks relating to our ability to continue to implement our strategy, including having sufficient financial resources to carry out that strategy; risks relating to our ability to meet all of the terms and conditions of our debt obligations; uncertainty related to current economic conditions including the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the related impact on demand for our services; and other risks and uncertainties disclosed in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019.
