NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the Three and Six Month Periods Ended June 30, 2024 and 2023

NOTE 1 – THE COMPANY AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Nature of Operations

One Stop Systems, Inc. (“we,” “our,” “OSS,” or the “Company”) was originally incorporated as a California corporation in 1999, after initially being formed as a California limited liability company in 1998. On December 14, 2017, the Company was reincorporated as a Delaware corporation in connection with its initial public offering. The Company designs, manufactures, and markets specialized rugged high-performance compute, high speed switch fabrics and storage systems, which are designed to target edge applications for artificial intelligence (“AI”)/machine learning (“ML”), sensor processing, sensor fusion and autonomy. The Company markets its products to manufacturers of equipment used for autonomous vehicles, medical, industrial, and military applications, with special focus on platforms that move, such as planes, trucks, ships, submarines and mobile datacenters or command posts where sensor processing, sensor fusion, AI and ML are integrated to support such applications.

During the year ended December 31, 2015, the Company formed a wholly owned subsidiary in Germany, One Stop Systems, GmbH (“OSS GmbH”). In July 2016, the Company acquired Mission Technologies Group, Inc. (“Magma”) and its operations that complemented OSS' manufacture of custom high-performance compute servers.

On August 31, 2018, the Company acquired Concept Development Inc. (“CDI”) located in Irvine, California. CDI specialized in the design and manufacture of custom high-performance computing systems for airborne in-flight entertainment, flight safety equipment, and networking systems. CDI’s business was fully integrated into the core operations of the Company as of June 1, 2020.

On October 31, 2018, OSS GmbH acquired 100% of the outstanding equity of Bressner Technology GmbH, a limited liability company registered under the laws of Germany and located near Munich, Germany (“Bressner”). Bressner designs and manufactures standard and customized servers, panel PCs, and PCIe accelerator systems. It also operates as a systems integrator with standard and custom all in one hardware systems and components. In addition, Bressner serves as a channel to market for OSS ruggedized datacenter level compute and storage products to the European and Middle Eastern markets.

The Company completed and fulfilled all remaining orders associated with its long-term media and entertainment customer during the year ended December 31, 2023, and does not anticipate further business from this customer in the future. This resulted from an acceleration in the customer’s investment in cloud technology and a drive towards less intelligent compute capability at the edge to reduce the costs of their componentry. This customer’s transition to cloud solutions had a negative impact on the Company’s results of operations for the year ended December 31, 2023 and for the six months ended June 30, 2024.

With the Company's shift in focus to the development and sale of AI Transportables, we have significantly increased our efforts to penetrate the military and defense sectors. With the hiring of Michael Knowles and Robert Kalebaugh in mid-2023 each of whom has extensive experience in contracting in the defense industry, as our new president and chief executive officer, and vice president of sales, respectively, we further increased our emphasis and focus on the pursuit of revenue opportunities with major defense contractors and the military.

The negative impact on the global economy and capital markets resulting from the geopolitical instability caused in part by the ongoing military conflict between Russia and Ukraine and Israel and Hamas, including inflation and recent Federal Reserve and European Central Bank interest rate increases, have contributed to economic uncertainty, which has negatively affected our operations. Component shortages and increased lead times from Taiwan, coupled with rising political tensions in Taiwan, resulted in supply chain delays and shortages that negatively impacted the Bressner business during the most recent quarter. The risk of a recession in the U.S. remains elevated and volatility and recessionary conditions in Europe, and in Germany in particular, are expected to remain a concern for the near term. Additionally, it is possible that U.S. policy changes and uncertainty about such changes,

including changes and uncertainty as a result of the upcoming U.S. presidential election, could increase market volatility and currency exchange rate fluctuations. As a result of the foregoing, there is continued economic uncertainty and volatility in the capital markets in the near term that could negatively affect our operations.

We are continuing to experience increased pricing, long lead-times, unavailability of certain product and limited supplies, protracted delivery dates, changes in minimum order quantities to secure product, and/or shortages of certain parts and supplies that are necessary components for the products and services we offer to our customers. This was particularly true for products and supplies sourced from Taiwan in the most recent fiscal quarter. As a result, the Company is continuing to carry increased inventory balances to ensure availability of necessary products and to secure pricing.

These global issues and concerns regarding general economic decline or recession are impacting our business as well as some of our customers, who are continuing to experience downturns or uncertainty in their own business operations and revenue, and as a result, these customers may need to decrease or delay their technology spending, request pricing concessions or payment extensions, or seek to renegotiate their contracts. During the quarter ended June 30, 2024, the Company experienced delays in orders due to certain customers’ funding or program delays. If such decreases in orders or postponements continue in the future, or we experience cancellations of orders, our operating results will be further impacted, and our revenues may decline in future periods.

These global issues and events may also have the effect of heightening many risks associated with our customers and supply chain. We may take further actions that alter our operations from time to time, or which we determine are in our best interests. In addition, we may decide to postpone or abandon planned investments in our business in response to changes in our business, which may impact our ability to attract and retain customers and our rate of innovation, either of which could harm our business.

As a result of these global issues, as well as other factors discussed in these notes, it has been difficult to accurately forecast our revenues or financial results, especially given the near and long-term impacts of the economic and geopolitical issues, inflation, the recent Federal Reserve and European Central Bank interest rate increases and the potential for recession in both the United States and Germany. In addition, while the potential impact and duration of these issues on the economy and our business may be difficult to assess or predict, these world events have resulted in, and may continue to result in, significant disruption of global financial markets, and may reduce our ability to access additional capital, which could negatively affect our liquidity in the future. Our results of operations could be materially below our forecasts as well, which could adversely affect our results of operations, disappoint analysts and investors, or cause our stock price to decline.

Management’s plans with respect to the above are to continue their efforts towards responding to the changing economic landscape, to continue to control costs, conserve cash, strengthen margins through the introduction of new product lines focusing on AI compute capabilities for military and industrial applications, autonomous truck diving and improve company-wide execution through increased investments in product marketing.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on an accrual basis of accounting in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“U.S. GAAP”), as set forth in the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”).

The unaudited consolidated financial statements herein have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. The accompanying interim unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared under the presumption that users of the interim financial information have either read or have access to the audited consolidated financial statements for the latest year ended December 31, 2023.

Accordingly, note disclosures which would substantially duplicate the disclosures contained in the December 31, 2023 audited consolidated financial statements have been omitted from these interim unaudited consolidated financial statements. The Company’s management has evaluated all subsequent events and transactions through the date of filing this Quarterly Report.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. For further information, refer to the audited consolidated financial statements and notes for the year ended December 31, 2023, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 21, 2024.

Reclassifications

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current year presentation. In the current year, the Company began disclosing as a separate component of revenue and cost of sales, the amounts related to customer funded development revenue and costs. Customer funded development is revenue from customers for which the Company's performance obligations are satisfied over time and for which the customer receives benefits as the Company performs. Products revenue performance obligations are typically satisfied at a point in time, predominately upon shipment.

Gross versus net revenue

ASC 606 provides guidance on proper recognition of principal versus agent considerations which is used to determine gross versus net revenue recognition. Under ASC 606, the core objective of the guidance on gross versus net revenue recognition is to help determine whether the Company is a principal or an agent in a transaction. In general, the primary difference between these two is the performance obligation being satisfied by the company recognizing revenue. The principal has a performance obligation to provide the desired goods or services to the end customer, whereas the agent arranges for the principal to provide the desired goods or services. Additionally, a fundamental characteristic of a principal in a transaction is control. A principal substantively controls the goods and services before they are transferred to the customer as well as controls the price of the good or service being provided.

The Company is an agent if the Company's performance obligation is to arrange for the delivery of the specified good or service by another party. An entity that is an agent does not control the specified good or service provided by another party before that good or service is transferred to the customer. During the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2024, the Company recorded net agent consideration as revenue of $241,010 and $279,917, respectively.

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of OSS, which include the operating results of its wholly owned subsidiary, OSS GmbH, and its wholly owned subsidiary Bressner. Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

There have been no changes to our accounting policies disclosed in our audited consolidated financial statements and the related notes for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates and assumptions.

On an ongoing basis, our management evaluates these estimates and assumptions, including those related to determination of standalone selling prices of our products and services, allowance for credit losses and sales reserves, income tax valuations, stock-based compensation, goodwill, intangible assets and inventory valuations and recoverability. We base our estimates on historical data and experience, as well as various other factors that our

management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities.

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price paid over the fair value of the net assets acquired in business combinations. Goodwill is not amortized but is tested for impairment at least annually or when we deem that a triggering event has occurred. Management reviews the impairment of goodwill for impairment annually at year end.

In June 2023, management performed an interim impairment test of goodwill, as a result of the overall financial performance of OSS as compared to plan, the transition of and focus on our product strategy of AI Transportables and the defense industry, and deferment of certain orders. As a result of this interim evaluation, the Company recorded an impairment loss to goodwill of $2,700,000, which was charged to operating expenses in the quarter ended June 30, 2023.

Due to the Ukraine war, the escalating conflicts in the middle east, inflationary pressures, other macroeconomic factors and the loss of our media and entertainment customer, there has been uncertainty and disruption in the global economy, financial markets and our ongoing operations. We are not aware of any specific event or circumstance that would require an update to our estimates or assumptions or a revision of the carrying value of our assets or liabilities as of the date of this Quarterly Report. These estimates and assumptions may change as new events occur and additional information is obtained. As a result, actual results could differ materially from these estimates and assumptions.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

On November 27, 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07 "Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to reportable segment disclosures." This amendment enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. In addition, the amendments enhance interim disclosure requirements, clarify circumstances in which an entity can disclose multiple segment measures of profit or loss, provide new segment disclosure requirements for entities with a single reportable segment, and contain other disclosure requirements. The purpose of the amendments is to enable “investors to better understand an entity’s overall performance” and assess “potential future cash flows.” The adoption of this amendment is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Management does not anticipate any material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

Employee Retention Credit

On March 27, 2020, the U.S. government enacted the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the "CARES Act") to provide certain relief as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. The CARES Act provided tax relief, along with other stimulus measures, including a provision for an Employee Retention Credit (“ERC”). The ERC was designed to encourage businesses to keep employees on the payroll during the COVID-19 pandemic. As there is no authoritative guidance under U.S. GAAP on accounting for government assistance to for-profit business entities, we accounted for the ERC funding consistent with our accounting treatment and reporting of the forgiveness of our Paycheck Protection Program ("PPP") Loan.

The credit is based upon the number of employees in any given quarter in years 2020 and 2021. For the year 2020, the maximum credit was based upon the lesser of 50% of eligible wages or $5,000 for the year. For the first three quarters only of the year 2021, the maximum quarterly credit was based upon the lesser of 70% of eligible wages or $7,000 per quarter. The total maximum program credit per employee was $26,000.

The Company applied for the ERC program and as of June 30, 2023, had received $1,516,034 in credits, including interest, and paid commissions of $217,793 to a vendor who assisted with the calculations and filing of the application. The net proceeds of $1,298,241 have been reported as other income in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. No ERC credits were received during the six month period ended June 30, 2024. Income is recognized when reasonably assured of receipt based upon notice.

Bank Lines of Credit

In April 2022, the Company obtained a domestic revolving line of credit of $2,000,000 with Torrey Pines Bank which was renewed in June 2023 and will expire in September 2026 at the current prime rate. To access this line of credit, the Company must maintain a minimum cash balance of $2,500,000 with the bank and maintain a maximum debt to tangible net worth of ratio of 1.00 to 1.00. The line of credit is also collateralized by the assets of the Company. No balance was outstanding on June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.

NOTE 8 – STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

The Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation, filed with the Delaware Secretary of State on December 14, 2017, authorizes the Company to issue 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock and 50,000,000 shares of common stock.

2017 Equity Incentive Plan

On October 10, 2017, the Company’s board of directors approved and adopted the Company’s 2017 Equity Incentive Plan (as amended to date, the “2017 Plan”), subject to stockholder approval thereof. On December 18, 2017, the Company’s stockholders approved the 2017 Plan. The 2017 Plan allows for the grant of a variety of equity vehicles to provide flexibility in the grant and issuance of equity awards, including stock options, unrestricted stock grants, restricted stock units (“RSUs”), stock bonuses and performance-based awards. An aggregate of 1,500,000 shares of common stock were initially reserved for issuance under the 2017 Plan.

On June 24, 2020, the Company amended the 2017 Plan to increase the maximum number of shares of common stock with respect to one or more Stock Awards (as defined in the 2017 Plan) that may be granted to any one participant under the 2017 Plan during any calendar year from 500,000 shares to 1,000,000 shares. The amendment did not increase the total number of shares of common stock authorized for issuance under the 2017 Plan and did not require stockholder approval.

On May 19, 2021, the Company’s stockholders approved the Company’s proposal to increase the number of shares authorized for issuance under the 2017 Plan from 1,500,000 shares to 3,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company pursuant to the terms and conditions of the 2017 Plan. The amendment took effect upon receipt of stockholder approval.

On March 15, 2024, the Company’s board of directors unanimously approved, and on May 15, 2024, the Company’s stockholders approved, an amendment to the 2017 Plan to increase the number of shares of common stock authorized for issuance thereunder from 3,000,000 to 5,000,000 shares. The amendment took effect upon receipt of stockholder approval.

Executive Employment Agreements

As contemplated by that Amended and Restated Employment Agreement, dated April 3, 2023, entered into by and between the Company and David Raun, in connection with the termination of Mr. Raun’s role as chief executive officer and president of the Company, all those unvested restricted stock units ("RSUs") held by Mr. Raun that were scheduled to vest within twelve months from his termination date (June 5, 2023) became vested as of such date, with the remaining unvested RSUs being forfeited. As a result, the vesting of 150,556 RSUs was accelerated and 52,132 RSUs were forfeited.

On June 5, 2023, in connection with, and as a material inducement to, the appointment of Michael Knowles as the Company’s new chief executive officer and president, Mr. Knowles was granted (i) non-qualified stock options to purchase 400,000 shares of Company common stock (the “Inducement Options”), which Inducement Options

have an exercise price equal to $2.95 per share and will expire ten years from the date of the grant; and (ii) 400,000 restricted stock units (together with the Inducement Options, the “Inducement Grants”).

Both of the Inducement Grants shall vest over a four-year period as follows: 25% on the one-year anniversary of the date of the grant, and the remaining 75% will vest in six equal installments, commencing six months after the one-year anniversary of the date of grant and every six months thereafter until fully vested, subject to Mr. Knowles’ continued employment by the Company.

The Inducement Grants were granted outside of the Company’s 2017 Plan and any other equity incentive plans, and in reliance on the employment inducement exemption provided under the Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(c)(4).

Stock Options

A summary of stock option activity under the Company’s current equity incentive plans during the six month period ended June 30, 2024, was as follows:


	Stock Options Outstanding
	Number of Underlying Shares			Weighted Average Exercise Price		Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Life (in years)		Aggregate Intrinsic Value
Outstanding on January 1, 2024		1,323,760		$	2.37		4.06	$	169,802

Vested and expected to vest as of June 30, 2024		1,210,550		$	2.41		4.17	$	333,419

As of June 30, 2024, there was $583,233 of unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested stock options, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.71 years.

The following table presents details of the assumptions used to calculate the weighted-average grant date fair value of common stock options granted by the Company. There were no options granted during the six month period ended June 30, 2024. The following table presents the grant date fair value of options vested and the intrinsic value of options exercised:


	For the Six Months Ended June 30,
	2024			2023
Expected term (in years)		-			6.16

Grant date fair value of options vested	$	1,043,083		$	933,399
Intrinsic value of options exercised	$	132,058		$	47,233

If there are any modifications or cancellations of the underlying unvested awards, the Company may be required to accelerate, increase, or cancel any remaining unearned stock-based compensation expense or calculate and record additional expense. Future stock-based compensation expense and unearned stock-based compensation will increase to the extent that the Company grants additional common stock options or other stock-based awards.

Restricted Stock Units

RSUs may be granted at the discretion of the compensation committee of the Company's board of directors under the 2017 Plan in connection with the hiring and retention of personnel and are subject to certain conditions. RSUs generally vest quarterly or semi-annually over a period of one to three years and are typically forfeited if employment is terminated before the RSUs vest. The compensation expense related to the RSUs is calculated as the fair value of the common stock on the grant date and is amortized to expense over the vesting period and is adjusted for estimated forfeitures.

The Company’s RSU activity for the six months ended June 30, 2024, was as follows:


	Restricted Stock Units
	Number of Underlying Shares			Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value
Unvested on January 1, 2024		1,093,489		$	3.04
Granted		11,350		$	2.45

We are subject to litigation, claims, investigations, and audits arising from time to time in the ordinary course of our business. When applicable, we record accruals for contingencies when it is probable that a liability will be incurred, and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. While the outcome of lawsuits and other proceedings

against us cannot be predicted with certainty, in our opinion, individually or in the aggregate, no such lawsuits are expected to have a material effect on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.

In the opinion of management, after consultation with legal counsel, the ultimate disposition of any such matters as of June 30, 2024, are not expected to have a materially adverse effect on the consolidated financial position or results of operations of the Company.

Guarantees and Indemnities

The Company has made certain indemnities, under which it may be required to make payments to an indemnified party, in relation to certain transactions. The Company indemnifies its directors, officers, employees, and agents to the maximum extent permitted under the laws of the State of Delaware. In connection with its facility lease, the Company has indemnified its lessor for certain claims arising from the use of the facilities. The duration of the indemnities varies, and in many cases is indefinite. These indemnities do not provide for any limitation of the maximum potential future payments the Company could be obligated to make. Historically, the Company has not been obligated to make any payments for these obligations and no liabilities have been recorded for these indemnities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

Leases

The Company leases its offices, manufacturing, and warehouse facility in San Diego County under a non-cancelable operating lease. Our corporate headquarters are in a leased space comprising of approximately 29,342 square feet in Escondido, California under a lease that was last modified and extended in September 2023 and expires in August 2030. The Company also leases a 3,208 square foot facility in Salt Lake City, Utah, under a lease expiring in June 2025, that houses our Ion software development team. Additionally, we lease a 1,632 square foot facility located in Anaheim, California, with the lease expiring in June 2025. Bressner leases space in Germany comprising of 11,836 square feet on a month-to-month basis. In June 2024, Bressner leased an additional 2,500 square feet of office space in Germany on a month-to-month basis with payments of approximately $5,950 per month, beginning in October 2024.

Overview

The Company designs, manufactures, and markets specialized high-performance compute, high speed switch fabrics and storage hardware and software, which are designed to target edge Artificial Intelligence ("AI") Transportable deployments. Edge computing is a form of computing that is done on site, near a particular data source or the user, rather than in the cloud, minimizing the need for data to be processed in a remote datacenter. This growing trend increases computing performance and security, as the data does not have to travel to a distant datacenter location. Edge computing is most recognizable in applications such as sensor processing, sensor fusion, autonomy and AI/machine learning ("ML"). To meet the demands at the edge we offer specialized modules and systems that consist of computers, switch fabrics and storage products that incorporate the latest state-of-the art components with embedded proprietary software. Such modules and systems allow us to offer high-end solutions to target markets to be integrated into, platforms, vehicles and applications.

The global increase in load on the cloud infrastructure and increase in AI applications are the primary factors driving the growth of the edge computing market. We market our products to manufacturers of automated equipment used for medical, industrial, and military applications. Our customer applications often require connection to a wide array of data sources and sensors, ultra-fast processing power, and the ability to quickly access and store large and ever-growing data sets at their physical location (rather than in the cloud). This equipment requires datacenter class performance optimized for deployment at the edge in challenging environments. Many of these edge applications have unique requirements, including special and compact form factors ruggedized for harsh conditions, which cannot be accommodated by traditional controlled air-conditioned datacenters.

We believe that we are uniquely positioned as a specialized provider to address the needs of this market, providing custom servers, data acquisition platforms, compute accelerators, solid-state storage arrays, system I/O expansion systems, as well as edge optimized industrial and panel PCs, tablets, and handheld compute devices. Our systems also offer industry leading capabilities that occupy less physical space and require less power consumption. We deliver this high-end technology to our customers through the sale of equipment and embedded software.

One Stop Systems, Inc. was originally incorporated as a California corporation in 1999, after initially being formed as a California limited liability company in 1998. On December 14, 2017, the Company was reincorporated as a Delaware corporation in connection with its initial public offering.

During the year ended December 31, 2015, the Company formed a wholly owned subsidiary in Germany, OSS GmbH. Then, in July 2016, the Company acquired Magma and its operations that complemented OSS' manufacture of custom high-performance compute servers.

On August 31, 2018, the Company acquired Concept Development, Inc. ("CDI"), which was located in Irvine, California. CDI specialized in the design and manufacture of custom high-performance computing systems for airborne in-flight entertainment, flight safety equipment, and networking systems. CDI’s business was fully integrated into the core operations of OSS as of June 1, 2020.

On October 31, 2018, OSS GmbH acquired 100% of the outstanding equity of Bressner Technology GmbH, a Germany limited liability company located near Munich, Germany ("Bressner"). Bressner designs and manufactures standard and customized servers, panel PCs, and PCIe expansion systems. Bressner also provides

manufacturing, test, sales, and marketing services for customers throughout Europe, the Middle East and Africa ("EMEA").

Components of Results of Operations

Revenue

The Company recognizes revenue under accounting standard ASC 606. Revenue is primarily generated from the sale of computer hardware and engineering services, and, to a minimal extent, revenue is also generated from the sale of software and sales of software maintenance and support contracts. The Company’s performance obligations are satisfied over time as work is performed or at a point in time. The majority of the Company’s revenue is recognized at a point in time when products ship and control is deemed to be transferred to the customer. The Company determines revenue recognition through the following steps: (1) identification of the contract with a customer; (2) identification of the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determination of the transaction price; (4) allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (5) recognition of revenue when, or as, a performance obligation is satisfied.

Cost of revenue

Cost of revenue primarily consists of costs of materials, costs paid to third-party contract manufacturers (which may include the costs of components), and personnel costs associated with manufacturing and support operations. Personnel costs consist of wages, bonuses, benefits, and stock-based compensation expenses. Cost of revenue also includes freight, allocated overhead costs and inventory write-offs and changes to our inventory and warranty reserves. Allocated overhead costs consist of certain facilities and utility costs. We expect cost of revenue to increase in absolute dollars with product revenue increases.

Operating expenses

Our operating expenses consist of general and administrative, sales and marketing and research and development expenses. Salaries and personnel-related costs, benefits, and stock-based compensation expense are the most significant components of each category of operating expenses. Operating expenses also include allocated overhead costs for facilities and utility costs.

General and Administrative - General and administrative expense consists primarily of employee compensation and related expenses for administrative functions including finance, legal, human resources, and fees for third-party professional services, as well as allocated overhead. We expect our general and administrative expense to increase in absolute dollars as we continue to invest in growing the business.

Impairment of goodwill - Impairment of goodwill consists of the amount of write down of value attributable to acquisitions of the amount paid that was in excess of the book value of the assets acquired.

Marketing and Selling – Marketing and selling expense consists primarily of employee compensation and related expenses, sales commissions, marketing programs, travel, and entertainment expenses as well as allocated overhead. Marketing programs consist of advertising, tradeshows, events, corporate communications, and brand-building activities. We expect marketing and selling expenses to increase in absolute dollars as we expand our sales force, increase marketing resources, and further develop sales channels.

Research and Development - Research and development expense consists primarily of employee compensation and related expenses, prototype expenses, depreciation associated with assets acquired for research and development, third-party engineering, and contractor support costs, as well as allocated overhead. We expect our research and development expenses to increase in absolute dollars as we continue to invest in new and existing products.

Other Income (Expense), net

Other income consists of miscellaneous income and income received from activities outside of our core business. Other expense includes expenses from activities outside of our core business.

Employee Retention Credit is a one-time U.S. government benefit enacted under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the "CARES Act") to provide certain relief as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. The CARES Act includes a provision for an Employee Retention Credit (“ERC”). The ERC was designed to encourage businesses to keep employees on the payroll during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Provision for Income Taxes

Provision for income taxes consists of estimated income taxes due to the United States and German governments as well as state tax authorities in jurisdictions in which we conduct business, along with the change in our deferred income tax assets and liabilities.

OSS saw a decrease in revenue of $2,756,062, or 33.3%, as compared to the same period in 2023. The primary contributors to this reduction are the discontinuation of sales to our former media and entertainment customer (disguise) of approximately $3,183,000, offset by recent program wins. Bressner experienced a decrease of $1,254,140, or 14.0%, as compared to the same period in 2023 as a result of economic constraints in the marketplace.

OSS saw a decrease in revenue of $5,852,776, or 34.6%, as compared to the same period in 2023. The primary contributors to this reduction are the discontinuation of sales to our former media and entertainment customer (disguise) of approximately $4,713,000 and a reduction of revenue attributable to delayed timing of a defense contract for our data storage units and parts. Bressner experienced a decrease of $2,287,534, or 13.4%, as compared to the same period in 2023 as a result of discontinuance of certain programs.

OSS saw a decrease in cost of revenue of $1,718,005, or 29.3%, as compared to the same period in 2023. This decrease in cost of revenue is mainly attributable to the discontinuation of our sales to our former media and entertainment customer (disguise) and data storage units. Bressner’s cost of revenue decreased $827,522, or 12.6%, as compared to the same period in 2023, due to reduced overall sales due to a difficult economy.

The overall gross margin percentage was 25.2% for the three months ended June 30, 2024. OSS’ gross margin percentage for the three months ended June 30, 2024, was 24.9%, a reduction of 4.3 percentage points as compared to the prior year period in 2023 of 29.2%, due to underutilization of production facility and additional inventory reserves. Bressner contributed gross margin at a rate of 25.5%, as compared to the same period in 2023 of 26.7%, a decrease of 1.2 percentage points, resulting from less program revenue and one-time sales that tend to have higher margins as compared to the same 2024 period.

Bressner’s cost of revenue decreased $1,749,547, or 13.7%, as compared to the same period in 2023, due to reduced overall sales due to a difficult economy and a reduction of additional sales attributable to project based related business.

The overall gross margin percentage was 27.3% for the six months ended June 30, 2024. OSS’ gross margin percentage for the six months ended June 30, 2024, was 29.6%, a reduction of 3.2 percentage points as compared to the prior year period in 2023 of 32.8%, due to underutilization of production facility and additional inventory reserves.

Impairment of goodwill

During June 2023, the Company took a write-down of $2,700,000 as a result of the overall financial performance of OSS as compared to plan, the transition of and focus on our product strategy on AI Transportables and the defense industry deferment of certain orders. There was no such impairment charge in 2024.

The decrease was largely driven by engineering resources being deployed on chargeable projects, which costs are reclassified as a component of costs of sales. Bressner experienced an increase of $35,365, or 29.6% due to additional personnel and overhead costs. Overall, total research and development expense as a percentage of revenue increased as a percentage of revenue to 7.0% during the three months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to 5.5% during the same period in 2023.

Interest income increased $45,293 for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the same period in 2023. The increase is attributable to higher interest rates on qualified short-term investments that meet Company requirements.

Interest expense

Interest expense decreased $4,836 for the three months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the same period in 2023 due to declining borrowing balances.

Interest expense decreased $2,199 for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the same period in 2023 due to declining borrowing balances.

Employee Retention Credit

For the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2023, the Company received a government provided Employee Retention Credit (“ERC”) for the retention of employees during the COVID-19 pandemic during the years of 2020 and 2021, in the amount of $1,516,034 less commissions of $217,793. The Company did not receive any ERC credits in either the three or six month periods ended June 30, 2024.

Other income (expense), net

Other income (expense), for the three months ended June 30, 2024, resulted in net other income of $21,831 as compared to net other income of $31,837, in the same period in 2023, for a net decrease in other income of $10,006 attributable to changes in foreign currency gain and losses.

Other income (expense), for the six months ended June 30, 2024, resulted in net other income of $29,109 as compared to net other income of $11,614, in the same period in 2023, for a net increase in other income of $17,495 attributable to gains on foreign currency transactions.

Provision for income taxes

We have recorded an income tax provision of $211,027 and $396,863, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 and $402,296 and $658,365, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023. The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, differed from the statutory rate mainly due to permanent non-deductible goodwill amortization for Bressner, change in valuation allowance, deductions related to expenses of OSS stock options, research and development credits, and changes in reserves for uncertain tax positions, as well as projecting foreign and state tax liabilities for the year. The tax provision is predominately attributable to profit operations in Germany.

Under the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, research and development costs are no longer fully deductible and are required to be capitalized and amortized for U.S. tax purposes effective January 1, 2022. The mandatory capitalization requirement increases our deferred tax assets and the related valuation allowance and may have an impact on payment of tax liabilities. The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2024, was 29.1%, as compared to 28.9% in the prior period in 2023.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Historically, our primary sources of liquidity have been provided by public and private offerings of our securities and revenues generated from our business operations. As of June 30, 2024, we had total cash and cash equivalents of $6,751,771, with short-term investments of $5,019,230, and total working capital of $32,573,474. Cash and cash equivalents held by Bressner totaled US$2,384,918 on June 30, 2024. Bressner’s debt covenants do not permit the use of those funds by its parent company.

During the six month period ended June 30, 2024, we had a loss from operations of $3,516,879, with cash provided by operating activities of $1,226,742.

During the six month period ended June 30, 2023, we had a loss from operations of $3,609,905, with cash provided by operating activities of $2,048,934.

During the year ended December 31, 2023, we had a loss from operations of $7,923,135, with cash used by operating activities of $439,679.

Our sources of liquidity and cash flows are used to fund ongoing operations, fund research and development projects for new products technologies and provide ongoing support services for our customers. Over the next year, we anticipate that we will use our liquidity and cash flows from our operations to fund our business. We cannot

provide assurances that additional financing will be available to us in any required time and on commercially reasonable terms, if at all.

As discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 and as of June 30, 2024, economists continue to suggest that an elevated risk of economic downturn in the U.S. and Germany will continue for the foreseeable future, which could result in further economic uncertainty and volatility in the capital markets in the near term and could negatively affect our operations. We intend to continue to monitor the effects of inflation, global supply chain shortages and the economic conditions, and, if appropriate, we may alter our plans to address such concerns as they may arise.

Management’s plans are to focus on acquiring new customer orders to replace lost revenue attributable to our previous media customer, to continue our efforts towards responding to the changing economic landscape, including significant inflation, both domestically and internationally, foreign currency exchange rates, a potential recession in the U.S. and/or Germany, the high Federal Reserve and European Central Bank interest rates, supply chain constraints and international conflicts, by continuing to control hiring and operating costs, conserve cash, and continual focus on improving margin.

Management expects these actions and continued diligence towards limiting cost growth and expense containment will provide long-term sustainability. Management is also committed to conserving cash and securing debt and/or equity financing, as required, for liquidity to meet our cash requirements through at least a period of the next twelve months.

In April 2022, the Company obtained a domestic revolving line of credit of $2,000,000 from its bank, which was renewed in June 2024 and will expire in September 2026 at the current prime rate. To access this line of credit, the Company must maintain a minimum cash balance of $2,500,000 with the bank and maintain a maximum debt to tangible net worth of ratio of 1.00 to 1.00. The line of credit is also collateralized by the assets of the Company. No balance was outstanding on June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. Although the Company has not drawn down on the line of credit to date, it may choose to do so in the future.

Additionally, in August 2023, we filed a registration statement on Form S-3 (Registration No. 333-274073) with the SEC, which became effective on August 25, 2023, and allows us to offer and sell up to an aggregate of $100,000,000 of our common stock, preferred stock, debt securities, warrants to purchase our common stock, preferred stock or debt securities, subscription rights to purchase our common stock, preferred stock or debt securities and/or units consisting of some or all of these securities, in any combination, together or separately, in one or more offerings, in amounts, at prices and on the terms that we will determine at the time of the offering and which will be set forth in a prospectus supplement and any related free writing prospectus. In the event, that we need additional financing, we may choose to consummate an offering of our securities under the registration statement on S-3 in order to raise capital.

As a result of management’s commitment to controlling costs, conserving cash, and our potential sources of liquidity, as well as management’s most recent cash flow forecasts, management believes that we have sufficient liquidity to satisfy our anticipated working capital requirements for our ongoing operations and obligations for at least the next twelve months. However, there can be no assurance that management’s cost reduction efforts will be effective or the forecasted cash flows will be achieved. Furthermore, we will continue to evaluate our capital expenditure needs based upon various factors, including but not limited to, our sales from operations, growth rate, the timing and extent of spending to support development efforts, the expansion of our sales and marketing efforts, the timing of new product introductions, and the continuing market acceptance of our products and services.

If cash generated from operations is insufficient to satisfy our capital requirements, we may borrow up to $2,000,000 from our revolving line of credit with our bank (subject to satisfaction of certain borrowing conditions), may have to sell additional equity or debt securities, or may obtain expanded credit facilities to fund our operating expenses, pay our obligations, diversify our geographical reach, and grow the Company. In the event such financing is needed in the future, there can be no assurance that such financing will be available to us, or, if available, that it will be in amounts and on terms acceptable to us. If we cannot raise additional funds when we need or want them, our operations and prospects could be negatively affected. However, if cash flows from operations become insufficient to continue operations at the current level, and if no additional financing were obtained, then

management would consider restructuring the Company in a way to preserve its business while maintaining expenses within operating cash flows.

The following table summarizes our cash flows for the six month periods ended June 30, 2024 and 2023:


	For the Six Months Ended June 30,
Cash flows:	2024			2023
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	1,226,742		$	2,048,934
Net cash provided by investing activities	$	2,541,086		$	503,054
Net cash (used in) provided by financing activities	$	(1,014,840	)	$	413,575

Operating Activities

During the six month period ended June 30, 2024, we generated $1,226,742 in cash from operating activities, a reduction of $822,192 when compared to the cash provided by operating activities of $2,048,934 during the same period in 2023.

The change in cash provided by operating activities during the six month period ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the same period in 2023, is primarily a result of three components comprised of (i) an increase in net loss of $884,159 in 2024 to $3,684,167 in the current year period, from a net loss of $2,800,008 in the prior year period; (ii) net unfavorable adjustments in the current period for non-cash items of $1,568,036, which were comprised of $1,818,141 of favorable non-cash items, offset by $3,386,177 of negative non-cash items that did not affect operating cash flow; and (iii) a net increase working capital items of $1,630,003.

Net improvements in working capital for the six month period ended June 30, 2024, were $1,630,003 as compared to the prior year period of improvement in working capital of $1,017,565. The improvements to working capital of $4,992,321 were attributable to changes in inventory levels, accounts payable and operating lease liabilities for the comparable period. These improvements were offset by unfavorable changes in working capital of $3,362,318, attributable to changes in accounts receivable, prepaid expenses other current assets, accrued expenses and other liabilities and operating lease liabilities.

Our ability to generate cash from operations in future periods will depend in large part on our profitability, the rate and timing of collections of our accounts receivable, our inventory turns and our ability to manage other areas of working capital, including accounts payable and accrued expenses.

Investing Activities

During the six month period ended June 30, 2024, the Company generated cash of $2,541,086 from investing activities, as compared to $503,054 provided by investing activities during the prior year period in 2023, a net increase of $2,038,032. This change is basically attributable to an increase in the number of short-term investments redeemed in the current period as compared to the prior period. Additionally, the Company continues to enhance the capabilities of its ERP system, and purchase test equipment for the engineering department. We do not anticipate any significant investments not normally anticipated in the original course of business in the near term.

Financing Activities

Given the current economic, financial, and geopolitical instability, the Company believes it is imperative to maintain opportunities for additional financial resources to ensure financial stability during trying economic times. During the six month period ended June 30, 2024, the Company used $1,014,840 in cash for debt service payments on Bressner borrowings and payment of tax on the net exercise of vested RSUs, while generating $219,348 from the exercise of options. During the same period in 2023, the Company generated of $413,575 for comparable items for a difference of $1,428,415.

Known Trends or Uncertainties

Although we have not seen any significant reduction in revenues to date due to consolidations, we have seen some consolidation in our industry during economic downturns. These consolidations have not had a negative effect on our total sales; however, should consolidations and downsizing in the industry continue to occur, those events could adversely impact our revenues and earnings going forward.

We are continuing to experience delays in funding for customer projects, delays in delivery schedules based upon customer requirements and an extended sales cycle. Additionally, certain of our customers are experiencing downturns or uncertainty in their own business operations and revenue, including one customer that declared bankruptcy in 2023, and as a result there is an increased risk that these customers may need to decrease or delay their technology spending, request pricing concessions or payment extensions, or seek to renegotiate their contracts.

During the six months ended June 30, 2024, and the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company experienced delays and postponements of purchases and orders due to certain customers’ funding or program delays. We have also experienced cancellations of orders due to disruptions in our customers’ businesses or changes in their business plans. Such delays, postponements and cancellations could negatively impact the Company’s results of operations for the year ending December 31, 2024. If such decreases in orders, postponements or cancellations continue in the future, our operating results will be further impacted, and our revenues may decline in future periods.

With the Company's shifted focus to the development and sale of AI Transportables, we have significantly increased our efforts to penetrate the military and defense sectors, which typically have protracted sales cycles, significant contracting requirements, and multi-year deliverables. With the recent hiring of a new president and chief executive officer and new vice president of sales, each of whom has extensive experience in contracting in the defense industry, we have further increased our emphasis and focus on the pursuit of revenue opportunities with major defense contractors and the military. We have recently reviewed our existing pipeline and have made adjustments to reflect the procurement habits and timing of the military and defense sector. We have also added relevant defense market experience to our board of directors through the appointment of Mr. Knowles, Vice Admiral Dumont and Mitch Herbets as directors. We believe that these changes will allow us to further penetrate the defense sector and enhance our business strategies with respect to this target market.

The world continues to be affected by the ongoing conflicts between Russia and Ukraine and in the Middle East and economic uncertainty, amongst other things. Inflation has risen both domestically and internationally, Federal Reserve and European Central Bank interest rates have increased significantly over the last year, and economists suggest that risk of a recession in the U.S. remains elevated. Germany was in a recession for most of 2023, largely due to persistent high inflation and falling household spending. Volatility and recessionary conditions in Europe, and in Germany in particular, are expected to remain a concern for the near term. Component shortages and increased lead times from Taiwan, coupled with rising political tensions in Taiwan, resulted in supply chain delays and shortages that negatively impacted the Bressner business during the most recent quarter. which could continue to negatively impact our business in the near term. Additionally, it is possible that U.S. policy changes and uncertainty about such changes, including changes and uncertainty as a result of the upcoming U.S. presidential election, could increase market volatility and currency exchange rate fluctuations. These factors, amongst other things, could result in further economic uncertainty and volatility in the capital markets in the near term, and could negatively affect our operations.

We believe that the need for improved productivity in the research and development activities directed toward developing new products and/or software will continue to result in increasing adoption of high-performance computers and interconnect technologies such as those we produce. New product and/or software developments in the specialized compute-business segment could result in increased revenues and earnings if they are accepted by our markets; however, there can be no assurances that new products and/or software will result in significant improvements to revenues or earnings. For competitive reasons, we do not disclose all our new product development activities.

Additionally, the potential for growth in new markets is uncertain. We will continue to explore these opportunities until such time as we either generate sales or determine that resources would be more efficiently used elsewhere.

Inflation

We experienced some effects due to inflation in both the U.S. and Europe during the most recent period, including increased product pricing due to semiconductor product shortages, increased transportation costs due to increases in the cost of energy and general price increases due to inflation in the economy. Although the Company attempts to pass on increases in raw material, labor, energy and fuel-related costs to our customers, the Company’s ability to do so is dependent upon the rate and magnitude of any increase, competitive pressures and market conditions for the Company’s products. There have been in the past, and may be in the future, periods of time during which increases in these costs cannot be fully recovered. These increasing costs are being aggressively managed by the Company and actions are being taken to minimize the impact to the Company, particularly in the purchase of inventories to minimize price increases. Inflation affects the Company’s manufacturing costs, distribution costs and operating expenses.

Off balance sheet arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet financing arrangements or liabilities, guarantee contracts, retained or contingent interests in transferred assets, or any obligation arising out of a material variable interest in an unconsolidated entity.

We do not have any majority-owned subsidiaries that are not consolidated in the financial statements. Additionally, we do not have an interest in, or relationships with, any special purpose entities.

Stockholder transactions

See Note 8 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements for a discussion regarding our stockholder transactions for the relevant periods.

Critical accounting policies and estimates

In preparing our consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, management must make a variety of decisions which impact the reported amounts and the related disclosures. These decisions include the selection of the appropriate accounting principles to be applied and the assumptions on which to base accounting estimates. In making these decisions, management applies its judgment based on its understanding and analysis of the relevant circumstances and our historical experience.

Our accounting policies and estimates that are most critical to the presentation of our results of operations and financial condition, and which require the greatest use of judgments and estimates by management, are designated as our critical accounting policies. See further discussion of our critical accounting policies under Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.

On November 27, 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07 "Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to reportable segment disclosures." This amendment enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. In addition, the amendments enhance interim disclosure requirements, clarify circumstances in which an entity can disclose multiple segment measures of profit or loss, provide new segment disclosure requirements for entities with a single reportable segment, and contain other disclosure requirements. The purpose of the amendments is to enable “investors to better understand an entity’s overall performance” and assess “potential future cash flows.” The adoption of this amendment is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. We do not anticipate any material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

Interest rate risk

Our exposure to interest rate risk is primarily associated with borrowing on revolving lines of credit denominated in both U.S. dollars and Euros. We are exposed to the impact of interest rate changes primarily through our borrowing activities for our variable rate borrowings. Both the Federal Reserve and European Central Bank interest rates have increased rates from historic levels and are currently unchanged.

Concentration of credit risk

At times, deposits held with financial institutions may exceed the amount of insurance provided by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) and Securities Investor Protection Corporation (“SIPC”), of which both provide basic deposit coverage with limits up to $250,000 per owner. As of June 30, 2024, the Company had $2,752,541 of cash in our accounts that exceeded the insurance limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in these accounts and believes that the financial institutions at which such amounts are held are stable; however, no assurances can be provided. In Germany, the deposit insurance is €100,000 per bank, per customer. Bressner has funds on deposit in both Euro and U.S. dollar denominations of €1,865,944 (US$1,997,598) with banks in excess of the insurance limits.

We provide credit to our customers in the normal course of business. We perform ongoing credit evaluations of our customers’ financial condition and limit the amount of credit extended when deemed necessary.

Foreign currency risk

We operate in the United States and Germany. Our primary reporting currency is the United States dollar. Foreign sales of products and services are primarily denominated in U.S. dollars. We also conduct business outside the United States through Bressner our foreign subsidiary in Germany, where business is largely transacted in non-U.S. dollar currencies, particularly the Euro, which is subject to fluctuations due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Accordingly, we are subject to exposure from changes in the exchange rates of local currencies. Foreign currency transaction gains and losses are recorded in other income (expense), net in the consolidated statements of operations.

OSS GmbH operates as an extension of OSS’ domestic operations and acquired Bressner in October 2018. The functional currency of OSS GmbH is the Euro. Transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are remeasured to the functional currency at the average exchange rate in effect during the period. At the end of each reporting period, monetary assets and liabilities are translated using exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities are remeasured at historical exchange rates. Consequently, changes in the exchange rates of the currencies may impact the translation of the foreign subsidiaries’ statements of operations into U.S. dollars, which may in turn affect our consolidated statement of operations. The resulting foreign currency translation adjustments are recorded as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income.

Derivative Financial Instruments

We employ derivatives on a periodic basis to manage certain market risks through the use of foreign exchange forward contracts. We do not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes. Our derivatives are designated as a hedge of a forecasted transaction or of the variability of cash flows to be received or paid related to a recognized asset or liability (cash flow hedge). We hedge a portion of the exchange risk involved in anticipation of highly probable foreign currency-denominated transactions. In anticipation of these transactions, we may enter into foreign exchange contracts to provide currency at a fixed rate. The Company is currently not a party to any of these types of transactions.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted EBITDA

We believe that the use of adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, or adjusted EBITDA, is helpful for an investor to assess the performance of the Company. The Company defines adjusted

EBITDA as income (loss) before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, acquisition expenses, impairment of long-lived assets, financing costs, fair value adjustments from purchase accounting, stock-based compensation expense and expenses related to discontinued operations.

Adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement of financial performance under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, or GAAP. Because of varying available valuation methodologies, subjective assumptions and the variety of equity instruments that can impact a company’s non-cash operating expenses, we believe that providing a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes non-cash and non-recurring expenses allows for meaningful comparisons between our core business operating results and those of other companies, as well as providing us with an important tool for financial and operational decision making and for evaluating our own core business operating results over different periods of time.

Our adjusted EBITDA measure may not provide information that is directly comparable to that provided by other companies in our industry, as other companies in our industry may calculate non-GAAP financial results differently, particularly related to non-recurring, unusual items. Our adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to operating income or as an indication of operating performance or any other measure of performance derived in accordance with GAAP. We do not consider adjusted EBITDA to be a substitute for, or superior to, the information provided by GAAP financial results.

Adjusted EPS

Adjusted EPS excludes the impact of certain items, and therefore, has not been calculated in accordance with GAAP. We believe that exclusion of certain selected items assists in providing a more complete understanding of our underlying results and trends and allows for comparability with our peer company index and industry. We use this measure along with the corresponding GAAP financial measures to manage our business and to evaluate our performance compared to prior periods and the marketplace. The Company defines non-GAAP income (loss) as income or (loss) before amortization, stock-based compensation, expenses related to discontinued operations, impairment of long-lived assets and non-recurring acquisition costs. Adjusted EPS expresses adjusted income (loss) on a per share basis using weighted average diluted shares outstanding.

Adjusted EPS is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial information provided in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures may not be computed in the same manner as similarly titled measures used by other companies. We expect to continue to incur expenses similar to the adjusted income from continuing operations and adjusted EPS financial adjustments described above, and investors should not infer from our presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures that these costs are unusual, infrequent or non-recurring.

The following table reconciles non-GAAP net loss and basic and diluted earnings per share:

Free Cash Flow

Free cash flow, a non-GAAP measure for reporting cash flow, is defined as cash provided by or used in operating activities, less capital expenditures for property and equipment, which includes capitalized software development costs for the implementation of the Company’s ERP system. We believe free cash flow provides investors with an important perspective on cash available for investments and acquisitions after making capital investments required to support ongoing business operations and long-term value creation. We believe that trends in our free cash flow can be valuable indicators of our operating performance and liquidity.

Free cash flow is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial information provided in accordance with GAAP. This non-GAAP financial measure may not be computed in the same manner as similarly titled measures used by other companies.

We expect to continue to incur expenditures similar to the free cash flow adjustments described above, and investors should not infer from our presentation of this non-GAAP financial measure that these expenditures reflect all of our obligations which require cash. The following table reconciles cash provided by or used in operating activities, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, to free cash flow:


	For the Six Months Ended June 30,
Cash flow:	2024			2023
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	1,226,742		$	2,048,934
Capital expenditures		(204,094	)		(299,891	)
Free cash flow	$	1,022,648		$	1,749,043

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

Not Applicable.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our periodic and current reports that we file with the SEC is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms; and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Limitation on Effectiveness of Controls

The design of any control system is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals. The inherent limitations in any control system include the realities that judgments related to decision-making can be faulty, and that reduced effectiveness in controls can occur because of simple errors or mistakes. Due to the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error may occur and may not be detected.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Management is required to evaluate our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act, such as this Quarterly Report, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include controls and procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on our management’s evaluation (based upon 2013 Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO), and with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer), our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) were effective at a reasonable assurance level as of the end of the period covered by this report.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2024, which were identified in connection with management’s evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act, that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.
