Fueled by Continuous Rise in Demand for AI Rack Integration
ROUND ROCK, TEXAS / ACCESS Newswire / March 27, 2025 / TSS, Inc. (Nasdaq:TSSI), a data center services company that integrates AI and other high-performance computing infrastructure and software and provides related data center services, today reported results for its fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2024.
"2024 was a transformative year by all accounts, driven by strong operational execution and our commitment to customer service as we capture the soaring demand for AI rack integration and capitalize on opportunistic procurement services," commented Darryll Dewan, CEO of TSS. "For the full year, we delivered organic revenue growth of 172%, earnings per share of $0.24 compared to just over breakeven last year and Adjusted EBITDA of $10.2 million, up 283% from 2023. We signed a multi-year agreement with our largest customer, solidifying our position as a key partner for executing its technology roadmap, particularly AI rack integration. We exited the year with strong momentum, securing debt financing for the buildout of our new state-of-the-art facility, which is progressing according to plan, and achieving impressive fourth quarter revenue and diluted EPS growth of 105% and 300%, respectively."
Dewan continued, "The outlook for our industry is robust with significant capital investment flowing into AI-enabling technologies. With a strong operational foundation established and capacity expansion underway, we are confident in our ability to capitalize on these trends and deliver profitable growth, generate positive cash from operations and further enhance value for our shareholders."
Full-Year 2024 Financial Highlights:
(All comparisons are to Full-Year 2023)
Revenues of $148.1 million, up 172%
Systems Integration revenues of $22.6 million, up 157%
Facilities Management revenues of $8.0 million, up 13%
Procurement revenues of $117.5 million, up 205%
Gross profit of $22.4 million, up 103% on growth in all service lines
Net income of $6.0 million compared to $74,000
Diluted EPS of $0.24, up from $0.00
Adjusted EBITDA of $10.2 million, up 283%
Fourth Quarter 2024 Financial Highlights:
(All comparisons are to Fourth Quarter 2023)
Revenues of $50.0 million, up 105%
Systems Integration revenues of $7.9 million, up 264%
Facilities Management revenues of $1.6 million, up 11%
Procurement revenues of $40.5 million, up 95%
Gross profit of $7.2 million, up 121%, driven by growth and greater contribution from higher margin revenues
Net income of $1.9 million, up 471%
Diluted EPS of $0.08, up from $0.02
Adjusted EBITDA of $3.4 million, up 267%
2025 Outlook
Dewan concluded, "We are highly optimistic about our growth prospects in 2025 and beyond given the outsized opportunities in our sector, our strong customer relationships and expanded capacity. Our profitability will continue to be influenced by our revenue mix. Procurement Services represents nearly 80% of revenues in 2024 and is characterized by wider quarter-to-quarter revenue variability and margins that are typically below our corporate average. In our higher-margin Systems Integration and Facilities Management businesses, we expect growth at a significantly higher rate than our overall business."
"We have made significant progress in the readiness of our new facility and expect to be fully operational by June. Looking ahead to 2025, we expect an overall high level of EBITDA growth for the year compared to 2024. The second quarter will mark initial contributions from our new facility, with that segment ramping as rack volumes grow through the year and in 2026."

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.
