What the changes say

  • Revenue concentration remains extreme: one OEM supplied 99% of 2025 revenue, despite a long-term AI rack integration agreement.
  • New risks emphasize liquidity dependence on factoring and vendor credit, ERP controls, cybersecurity, and an unresolved material weakness.
  • The new facility has 15 megawatts contractually committed, but additional power is not guaranteed.
  • Federal shutdowns are newly highlighted because procurement depends significantly on U.S. government purchases.

What changed since the prior 10-K

New

  • New

    Our revenues are highly concentrated with a single OEM customer, and our business, financial condition and results of operations would be materially and adversely affected if we are unable to maintain or expand that relationship or successfully diversify our customer base

    One OEM generated 99% of 2025 revenue, so reduced purchases or termination could sharply damage results while fixed facility costs remain.

  • New

    A prolonged U.S. federal government shutdown could materially and adversely affect our business and operations

    A prolonged U.S. federal shutdown could disrupt procurement orders, future government business, revenues, cash flows, and securities trading.

  • New

    The ongoing refinement and integration of our ERP system could disrupt operations and adversely affect our internal control over financial reporting

    ERP upgrades or control weaknesses could disrupt AI rack integration, inventory, billing, collections, and financial reporting.

  • New

    Our procurement business requires significant working capital and depends on vendor trade credit and a single factoring arrangement; any disruption, modification or timing mismatch could materially affect our liquidity and operating results

    Procurement liquidity depends on vendor credit and one factoring arrangement; changed terms or timing delays could create cash shortfalls.

  • New

    A cybersecurity incident, including one affecting our third-party service providers, could materially disrupt our operations, expose us to liability and subject us to mandatory public disclosure under SEC rules

    Cyberattacks on TSSI or its service providers could disrupt AI hardware operations, expose data, create liabilities, and trigger SEC disclosure.

  • New

    While we have enacted a number of control enhancements to remediate this material weakness, we have not yet fully remediated all deficiencies that led to the conclusion that we had a material weakness. As a result, we continue to conclude that this material weakness remains at December 31, 2025

    TSSI still has a material weakness in internal controls and may face additional deficiencies, reporting problems, remediation costs, or fraud risk.

Dropped

  • Dropped

    We derive a significant portion of our revenues from one customer

    Dependence on one OEM customer and multiple services and business units.

  • Dropped

    We have a history of operating losses, and we may experience net losses in the future

  • Dropped

    We are attempting to diversify our customer base but there is no guarantee that we will be successful in doing so

  • Dropped

    The level of our procurement business may fluctuate significantly on a quarterly basis, requiring additional working capital to grow

  • Dropped

    Security breaches and attacks on our computer systems could lead to significant costs and disruptions that could harm our business, financial results and reputation

  • Dropped

    Because we do not currently intend to pay dividends on our common stock, stockholders will benefit from an investment in our common stock only if it appreciates in value

  • Dropped

    Our insiders beneficially own a significant portion of our outstanding common stock. Future sales of common stock by these insiders may adversely affect the market price of our common stock

Reworded

  • 42% rewritten

    Future power demands of AI-enabled computer racks is unknown and our ability to continue to earn revenues from AI rack integration services is highly dependent on our access to an acceptable amount of electrical power and related computer cooling capabilities

    After moving facilities in 2025, TSSI says the city has committed 15 megawatts but provides no guarantee of additional power.

  • 42% rewritten

    As the age of modular data centers increases and customers look to shut or replace such units, our recurring maintenance revenues could be negatively impacted, and this could adversely affect our operating results

    The language changed from expecting customers to replace aging modular data centers to saying they may replace them.

  • 39% rewritten

    Supply chain challenges could negatively affect our integration business by slowing the supply of parts needed to perform integration services, requiring us to hold greater quantities of inventory for longer periods and/or delaying completion of services for our customers

    The pandemic-specific explanation was removed; supply-chain shortages and related delays, inventory burdens, costs, and custodial risks remain possible.

    Was: Supply chain challenges have negatively affect our integration business by slowing the supply of parts needed to perform integration services, requiring us to hold greater quantities of inventory for longer periods and/or delaying completion of services for our customers

  • 30% rewritten

    We submit change orders to our customers for work we perform beyond the scope of some of our contracts. If our customers do not approve these change orders, the results of operations could be adversely impacted

    The risk now expressly says customers may contest change orders, while retaining uncertainty over approval and operating results.

  • 30% rewritten

    We warranty customer equipment against failure in some of our fixed price contracts, and a major equipment failure could have a material impact on our financial performance

    The equipment reference now uses MDCs and otherwise makes only minor wording changes to warranty-failure exposure.

  • 24% rewritten

    Changes in labor market conditions are causing increases in our labor costs, and if we are unable to adequately recover these costs from our customers, our business will be negatively impacted

    The risk now describes TSSI as having a small workforce and no longer mentions the Chief People Officer investment.

  • 23% rewritten

    A material breach of our long-term rack integration agreement, or our choice to terminate the agreement for any reason other than the other party’s material breach of the agreement, could significantly reduce certain minimum payments from our primary OEM partner

    The agreement now includes a subsequent amendment, and the wording changes from a multi-year term to the agreement’s terms.

    Was: A material breach of our multi-year rack integration agreement, or our choice to terminate the agreement for any reason other than the other party’s material breach of the agreement, could significantly reduce certain minimum payments from our primary OEM partner

Other TSS 10-Ks

  • FY2024 10-K risk factors
    22 risks

    TSS depends heavily on one OEM customer for the vast majority of its revenues and AI rack integration services. Significant financial commitments tied to a new integration facility and facility debt create material financial risks. Rapid technological changes in AI power and cooling demands directly impact ongoing integration revenues.
