Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.

 

On March 16, 2017, due to unusually high volume of trading in the stock of TSS, Inc. (the “Company”), the Company contacted OTC Markets Group Inc. (“OTC Markets”), which informed the Company that it had become aware of certain promotional activities concerning the Company and its common stock.

 

Until this disclosure from OTC Markets, the Company was unaware of the existence of the most recent promotional newsletters. In addition to the promotional newsletters received last month, the Company has since received from OTC Markets samples of three promotional newsletters, which were sent from Monster Alerts and from Pro Trader on March 16 and 17, 2017, but the Company is otherwise unaware of the existence of additional promotional newsletters, if any, any related promotional activity, the parties responsible for the production of the newsletters and the extent of any of the email newsletters’ dissemination.

 

On March 17, 2017, the Company issued a press release announcing that it had been made aware of this recent trading and promotional activity. A copy of the press release is being furnished herewith as Exhibit 99.1.

 

The information in this Report, including Exhibit 99.1 attached hereto, is furnished pursuant to Item 7.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K. Such information shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference into any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.

 

Statements contained in the press release contain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. In this context, forward-looking statements may address matters such as the Company’s expected future business and financial performance, and often contain words such as “guidance,” “prospects,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “seeks,” “should,” or “will.” Forward-looking statements by their nature address matters that are, to different degrees, uncertain. Particular uncertainties that could adversely or positively affect the Company’s future results include: the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm’s reports on the Company’s 2014 and 2015 financial statements contain an explanatory paragraph that expresses substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern; the Company’s inability access the capital markets to raise additional capital necessary to fund its operations; the Company may not have sufficient resources to fund its business and may need to issue debt or equity to obtain additional funding; the Company’s reliance on a significant portion of its 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 the Company serves; risks involved in properly managing complex projects; risks relating to the possible cancellation of customer contracts on short notice; risks relating to the Company’s ability to continue to implement its strategy, including having sufficient financial resources to carry out that strategy; risks relating to the Company’s ability to meet all of the terms and conditions of its debt obligations; uncertainty related to current economic conditions and the related impact on demand for the Company’s services; and other risks and uncertainties disclosed in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015. These uncertainties may cause the Company’s actual future results to be materially different than those expressed in the Company’s forward-looking statements. The Company does not undertake to update its forward-looking statements.
