PART I – FINANC IAL INFORMATION

Item 1. Financi al Statements.

In our opinion the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the interim periods presented. We have presented financial statements in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Therefore, such financial statements do not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. In preparing these unaudited consolidated financial statements, the Company has evaluated events and transactions for potential recognition or disclosure through the date the unaudited consolidated financial statements were issued by filing with the SEC.

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2023 (this "Quarterly Report"), should be read in conjunction with our audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on March 23, 2023.

The results of operations for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2023, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2023.

ONE STOP SYSTEMS, INC. (OSS)

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the Three and Six Month Periods Ended June 30, 2023 and 2022

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 high-performance compute and storage hardware, software, and systems, which are designed to target edge artificial intelligence (“AI”) Transportable deployments. The Company markets its products to manufacturers of automated equipment used for autonomous vehicle, medical, industrial, and military applications, with special focus on platforms that move, such as trucks, planes, and mobile datacenters.

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 (“OSS Europe”). OSS Europe designs and manufactures standard and customized servers, panel PCs, and PCIe accelerator systems. Although, currently, OSS Europe primarily serves as a value-added reseller for the Company in Europe, we are also focused on growing the AI Transportable portion of our business through OSS Europe and leveraging its existing relationships. OSS Europe also provides manufacturing, test, sales, and marketing services for customers throughout Europe, the Middle East and Africa.

As of June 30, 2023, the Company has completed and fulfilled substantially all of its orders associated with its long-term media and entertainment customer and does not anticipate significant business from this customer in the future. This resulted from an acceleration in such 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 is particularly true of their virtual products, which do not require the same level of ruggedization, as this system is not typically operated in harsh environments and for which software is being developed to provide a real-time cloud solution. This customer’s transition to cloud solutions had a negative impact on the Company’s results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, and is expected to continue to have a negative impact on the Company’s results of operations for the near term.

As previously disclosed, in 2021, we shifted our primary focus to the development and sale of AI Transportables. Since 2022, we have significantly increased our efforts to penetrate the military and defense sectors in particular. With the formation of a new strategic advisory board in second quarter 2022, and the recent hiring of a new president and chief executive officer, who 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.

11

The lingering negative impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic and the 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, including inflation and Federal Reserve interest rate increases, have contributed to global supply chain issues and economic uncertainty, which has negatively affected our operations. Additionally, during the first half of 2023, the general consensus among economists continued to suggest that a risk of recession 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 are continuing to experience increased pricing, longer 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. 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 experiencing 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 three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company experienced delays and postponements of committed 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 negatively impacted the Company’s results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023. 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.

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 as may be required by federal, state, or local authorities 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.

In March 2023, Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank, and most recently on May 1, 2023, First Republic Bank, were closed and taken over by the FDIC, which created significant market disruption and uncertainty for those who bank with those institutions, and which raised significant concern regarding the stability of the banking system in the United States, and in particular with respect to regional banks. If other banks and financial institutions enter receivership or become insolvent in the future in response to financial conditions affecting the banking system and financial markets, our ability to access our cash and cash equivalents may be threatened and such events could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.

As a result of these global issues, as well as other factors discussed in this Quarterly Report, 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 Federal Reserve interest rate increases and the potential for a recession. 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.

12

In February 2023, the Company announced that David Raun, the Company’s president and chief executive officer as of such date, would be stepping down, effective upon the appointment of his successor. In connection with the anticipated transition, on April 3, 2023, the Company and Mr. Raun entered into an Amended and Restated Employment Agreement (the “A&R Raun Agreement”), which superseded that certain Employment Agreement between the Company and Mr. Raun, dated June 24, 2020, as amended by that Amendment to Employment Agreement, dated July 15, 2020. The term of the A&R Raun Agreement commenced on April 3, 2023, and was to remain in effect until the earlier of (i) June 24, 2023 and (ii) the first date on which Mr. Raun’s successor commenced his or her employment as the chief executive officer of the Company, unless earlier terminated or extended pursuant to terms of the A&R Raun Agreement.

On May 16, 2023, the Company entered into an employment agreement with Michael Knowles, pursuant to which, effective June 5, 2023, Mr. Knowles began serving as president and chief executive officer and president of the Company. Consistent with prior disclosures and the terms and conditions of the A&R Raun Agreement, Mr. Raun stepped down as president and chief executive officer of the Company on June 5, 2023, and the A&R Raun Agreement automatically terminated pursuant to its terms.

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, 2022. Accordingly, note disclosures which would substantially duplicate the disclosures contained in the December 31, 2022 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. Operating results for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2023, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2023. For further information, refer to the audited consolidated financial statements and notes for the year ended December 31, 2022, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 23, 2023.

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 OSS Europe. 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, 2022, except for the adoption of ASU 2016-13, ("Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments”) as follows:

Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, which sets out the principles for the recognition of measurement of credit losses on financial instruments. This standard provides guidance on the impairment of financial instruments that is based on expected losses rather than probable or incurred losses. Under this new guidance, the Company will recognize, as an allowance, our estimate of expected credit losses based upon historical

13

and current information, and reasonable and supportable forecasts of future events and circumstances, as well as estimates of prepayments. Under this model, we are required to estimate the lifetime expected credit loss on such instruments and record an allowance to offset the amortized cost basis of the financial asset, resulting in a net presentation of the amount expected to be collected on the financial asset.

Accounts receivable have been reduced by an allowance for doubtful accounts. The allowance represents the current estimate of lifetime expected credit losses over the remaining duration of existing accounts receivable after considering current market conditions and supportable forecasts when appropriate. This estimate is a result of management's evaluation of collectability, customer creditworthiness, historical levels of credit losses, and future expectations.

The Company shall recognize an allowance for credit losses rather than a reduction to the carrying value of the asset for debt securities. To determine credit losses, we employ a systematic methodology that considers available quantitative and qualitative evidence. In addition, we consider specific adverse conditions related to the financial health of, and business outlook for, the investee.

Upon adoption of this standard on January 1, 2023, there was no immediate material impact to the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. On an ongoing basis, the Company will contemplate forward-looking economic conditions in recording lifetime expected credit losses for the Company’s financial assets measured at cost, such as the Company’s trade receivables and certain short-term investments.

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 doubtful account 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. The Company reviews the impairment of goodwill for impairment annually at yearend. The Company completed its annual assessment for goodwill impairment and determined that goodwill is not impaired as of December 31, 2022 and no adjustment was required.

In June 2023, the Company performed an interim impairment test of goodwill, as a result of the overall financial performance of OSS Classic as compared to plan, the transition of and focus on our product strategy of AI Transportables and the defense industry, 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 current period.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Ukraine war, inflationary pressures, other macroeconomic factors, the loss of our media and entertainment customer (which has historically been one of our largest customers), 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

Management has evaluated recent accounting pronouncements through the date of these consolidated financial statements and believes that the are no recent accounting pronouncements that will have a material impact on the Company's 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 provides 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 is 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 is based upon the lesser of 70% of eligible wages or $7,000 per quarter. The total maximum program credit per employee is $26,000.

The Company applied for the ERC program and as of June 30, 2023, has 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. Income is recognized when reasonably assured of receipt based upon notice.

Senior Secured Convertible Note

On April 20, 2020, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with an institutional investor, providing for the issuance by the Company of Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Notes with a principal face value of up to $6,000,000. The notes were, subject to certain conditions, convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, at an initial conversion price per share of $2.50. Notes issued under the Securities Purchase Agreement had a 10% original issue discount.

At the initial closing of this offering, the Company issued notes in the principal amount of $3,000,000 with a 10% original issue discount, resulting in an aggregate purchase price of $2,700,000 at the initial closing. The notes bore no interest rate (except upon event of default) and, unless earlier converted or redeemed, were scheduled to mature on April 1, 2022.

Commencing July 1, 2020, the Company made monthly amortization payments equal to 1/22 nd of the initial principal, any accrued and unpaid interest, and late charges and any deferred or accelerated amount, of such note, which could be satisfied in cash at a redemption price equal to 105% of such installment amount (110% of such installment amount on notes issued at additional closings). The remaining balance of the notes of $2,590,909 was converted into Company common stock on March 30, 2022; accordingly, the outstanding balance of the notes as of June 30, 2023 and 2022, was $0, respectively.

The original issue discount of 10% on the note was recorded as a debt discount, decreasing the note payable. This debt discount is amortized to interest expense using the effective interest rate method over the term of the loan. For the three month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, total debt discount amortization was $0, respectively, and for the six month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, total debt discount amortization was $0 and $1,161, respectively. Such amounts are included in interest expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

18

Debt issuance costs in the amount of $316,274 related to this indebtedness were deducted from the face value of the note. Such costs are amortized to interest expense using the effective interest rate method over the term of the loan. Total debt issuance costs amortized during the three month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, was $0, respectively and for the six month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 was $0 and $1,223, respectively. Such amounts are included in interest expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

A summary of outstanding debt obligations as of June 30, 2023, was as follows:

NOTE 9 – STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

The Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation, filed 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 Amendments

On October 10, 2017, the Company’s board of directors approved and adopted the 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, stock bonuses and performance-based awards. An aggregate of 1,500,000 shares of common stock were initially reserved for issuance under the Plan.

On June 24, 2020, the Company amended its 2017 Equity Incentive Plan to increase the maximum limitation of the 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 reserved 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 16, 2023, the Company’s board of directors unanimously approved, subject to stockholder approval, an amendment to the 2017 Plan (the “Plan Amendment”), which if approved by our stockholders, would

19

have resulted in an increase in the number of shares of common stock authorized for issuance thereunder from 3,000,000 to 4,500,000 shares of common stock. The Plan Amendment was presented to stockholders for approval at the Company’s 2023 Annual Meeting of Stockholders; however, the proposal was not approved, and therefor the Plan Amendment was not implemented and the 2017 Plan was not altered.

Executive Employment Agreements

As contemplated by the A&R Raun Agreement, in connection with the termination of Mr. Raun’s role as chief executive officer and president of the Company, all of 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 Mr. 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 each of the Company’s equity incentive plans during the six month period ended June 30, 2023, was as follows:

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 under the Company's 2017 Plan during the six month period ended June 30, 2022. 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, |
|  | 2023 |  |  | 2022 |
Expected term (in years) |  |  | 6.16 |  |  |  | - |
Expected volatility |  |  | 72.73 | % |  |  | 0.00 | %
Risk-free interest rate |  |  | 3.79 | % |  |  | 0.00 | %
Weighted average grant date fair value per share |  | $ | 2.95 |  |  | $ | - |
Grant date fair value of options vested |  | $ | 933,399 |  |  | $ | 2,005,285 |
Intrinsic value of options exercised |  | $ | 47,233 |  |  | $ | 119,927 |

As of June 30, 2023, the amount of unearned stock-based compensation estimated to be expensed from 2023 through 2027 related to unvested stock options is $782,295, net of estimated forfeitures, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.27 years.

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 Company’s 2017 Plan in connection with the hiring and retention of personnel and are subject to certain conditions. RSUs vest quarterly or semi-annually over a period of one to four 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, 2023, was as follows:

|  | Restricted Stock Units |
|  | Number of Underlying Shares |  |  | Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value |
Unvested on January 1, 2023 |  |  | 907,507 |  |  | $ | 4.04 |
Granted |  |  | 889,528 |  |  | $ | 2.80 |
Vested |  |  | (512,805 | ) |  | $ | 3.79 |
Canceled |  |  | (97,798 | ) |  | $ | 4.32 |
Unvested on June 30, 2023 |  |  | 1,186,432 |  |  | $ | 3.19 |

As of June 30, 2023, there was $4,177,442 of unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested RSUs, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.73 years.

NOTE 10 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Legal

We are subject to litigation, claims, investigations, and audits arising from time to time in the ordinary course of our business. In the opinion of management, after consultation with legal counsel, the ultimate disposition of any such matters as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, are not expect 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 modified in February 2019 and expires in August 2024. The Company also leases a 3,208 square foot facility in Salt Lake City, Utah that houses our Ion software development team that was scheduled to expire in June 2023 pursuant to its terms, and was extended through June 2025. The Company is the lessee of 1,632 square feet located in Anaheim, California, which was scheduled to expire in June 2023 pursuant to its terms, and was extended through June 2025. OSS Europe leases space comprised of 11,836 square feet on a month-to-month basis.

Overview

One Stop Systems, Inc. (“OSS”) designs, manufactures, and markets specialized high-performance compute and storage hardware, software, and systems, which are designed to target edge artificial intelligence ("AI") Transportable deployments. These specialized modules and systems consist of computers and storage products that incorporate the latest state-of-the art components with our embedded proprietary software. Such modules and systems allow our customers to offer high-end computing capabilities (often integrated within their equipment) to their target markets and applications. 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 data center. 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 data centers. 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 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 ("OSS Europe"). OSS Europe designs and manufactures standard and customized servers, panel PCs, and PCIe expansion systems. OSS Europe also provides manufacturing, test, sales, and marketing services for customers throughout Europe, the Middle East and Africa.

Recent Developments

In the second quarter of 2022, we formed a new strategic advisory board to aid in the acceleration of our pursuit of the AI Transportables market, and the military sector in particular. The advisory board is comprised of retired high-ranking military officials and corporate executives with decades of experience in technology, high performance computing and M&A for the defense, oil & gas, AI and autonomous vehicle industry verticals. Members of the advisory board provide input on product and market strategy, as well as help us navigate government bureaucracy and identify/introduce us to key decision makers, all with the goal of accelerating our success through their contacts, knowledge and experience.

Furthermore, in the first quarter of 2023, we implemented certain internal organizational changes to align our US-based operations with, and to further support and accelerate, our strategy to focus on the AI Transportables industry and our military business. In furtherance of this strategy and our goals, we have taken various steps to strengthen our management team with individuals who have deep experience and high-level contacts in the defense sector. In connection with this transition, on June 5, 2023, Michael Knowles was appointed as the Company’s president and chief executive officer and David Raun stepped down from such roles. Additionally, we initiated a search for a vice president of sales with significant military experience, which position we filled effective as of July 17, 2023. Furthermore, as previously disclosed, we are planning to reprofile our board of directors, as needed, to further align with our focus on AI Transportables and our military business, which we intend to do in multiple steps over the coming year.

On August 8, 2023, Jack Harrison and Sita Lowman tendered their resignations from our board of directors and the relevant committees thereof, effective September 30, 2023. Additionally, on August 8, 2023, the board appointed Michael Knowles, our Chief Executive Officer and President, and retired Admiral Michael Dumont, a member of our advisory board, as directors of the Company, effective September 30, 2023, to fill the vacancies created by the resignations of Mr. Harrison and Ms. Lowman. Commencing September 30, 2023, Mr. Knowles and Mr. Dumont will hold the director positions until our next annual meeting of stockholders or until their respective successors are elected and qualified, subject to their earlier death, resignation or removal. These changes were part of the first phase of our previously announced plans to reprofile our board of directors to further align with our focus on AI Transportables and our military business. Consistent with previous disclosures, we intend to make additional changes to the composition of our board over the coming year.

On April 3, 2023, in connection with the anticipated transition, the Company and Mr. Raun entered into an Amended and Restated Employment Agreement (the “A&R Raun Agreement”), which superseded that certain Employment Agreement between the Company and Mr. Raun, dated June 24, 2020, as amended by that Amendment to Employment Agreement, dated July 15, 2020 (collectively, the “Prior Agreement”). The term of the A&R Raun Agreement commenced on April 3, 2023, and the A&R Raun Agreement automatically terminated pursuant to its terms on June 5, 2023, which is the date on which Mr. Knowles was appointed as chief executive officer and president of the Company.

The terms and conditions of the A&R Raun Agreement were substantially similar to those included in the Prior Agreement, with the exception of the following material changes: (i) in addition to his base salary, which remained unchanged, Mr. Raun was entitled to receive a retention bonus that was equivalent to 50% of his base salary, which was prorated on a daily basis through his termination date; (ii) Mr. Raun was eligible to receive, at the sole discretion of the Company’s board of directors, a performance-based grant of 201,000 RSUs pursuant to the Company’s 2017 Equity Incentive Plan, as amended (the “2017 Plan”), which RSUs ultimately were not granted to Mr. Raun; (iii) in addition to those severance payments payable to Mr. Raun in the event that his employment is terminated for a reason other than “good cause,” as set forth in Section 12(b) of the Prior Agreement and A&R Raun Agreement, all other RSUs held by Mr. Raun that were scheduled to vest within twelve months from his termination date were to be accelerated to vest as of the date of termination, provided, that with respect to that tranche of unvested RSUs held by Mr. Raun that was scheduled to vest on August 3, 2024, the Company further agreed to prorate and accelerate the vesting of that portion of such tranche that would have otherwise vested within twelve months of the termination date if vesting of the RSUs in such tranche were to vest on a daily basis (as opposed to a six month basis) (collectively, the “Severance Benefits”); (iv) Mr. Raun was also entitled to receive the Severance Benefits in the event that the A&R Raun Agreement expired pursuant to its terms, subject to execution of a release

27

and waiver by Mr. Raun; and (v) the Board agreed to nominate Mr. Raun for election to the Company’s board of directors at the Company’s 2023 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.

As discussed above, the A&R Raun Agreement automatically terminated pursuant to its terms on June 5, 2023. In connection therewith, Mr. Raun received the Severance Benefits, which included, amongst other compensation, the accelerated vesting of 150,556 RSUs that were scheduled to vest within twelve months from June 5, 2023, and the forfeiture of 52,132 unvested RSUs.

On May 16, 2023, the Company entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Knowles, effective June 5, 2023, to begin serving as chief executive officer and president of the Company. The initial term of the agreement is three years from the effective date, after which it will automatically renew on an annual basis, subject to earlier termination in accordance with the terms of the agreement. Mr. Knowles will be entitled to receive an annual base salary of $460,000 per annum (subject to annual review and adjustment); an annual bonus (paid out annually if targets are met), with a target amount equivalent to seventy-five percent of his then-current annual base salary if certain applicable bonus criteria are met, subject to approval by the Company’s board of directors; a prorated bonus in 2023; and eligibility to participate in a number of Company-sponsored benefits.

In addition to the foregoing compensation, as an inducement material to his entering into his employment with the Company, as of June 5, 2023, Mr. Knowles was granted (i) non-qualified stock options to purchase 400,000 shares of Company common stock, which options have an exercise price of $2.95 and will expire ten years from the date of the grant; and (ii) 400,000 RSUs. Both of such equity grants were granted outside of the Company’s 2017 Plan, and in reliance on the employment inducement exemption provided under the Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(c)(4).

Both the options and the RSUs 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.

Furthermore, pursuant to agreement, in the event that Mr. Knowles is terminated for a reason other than “good cause” or for “good reason,” Mr. Knowles, upon signing and returning an effective waiver and release of claims, shall be entitled to receive: (i) separation payments in an aggregate amount of twelve months of his then-current base salary; (ii) continuation of group health continuation coverage under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1986 (“COBRA”) at the Company’s expense for a period of twelve months following the termination date; and (iii) unvested RSUs held by Mr. Knowles shall accelerate so that an additional twelve months of RSUs shall vest from the termination date.

Additionally, on April 7, 2023, we amended our Amended and Restated Bylaws (the “Bylaws”) to (i) revise Article II, Section 2.5 of the Bylaws to incorporate those requirements set forth in Rule 14a-19 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as recently implemented by the SEC; and (ii) revise Article II, Section 2.8 of the Bylaws to decrease the quorum threshold necessary to conduct business at shareholder meetings of the Company to one-third of the voting power of the Company’s capital stock issued and outstanding as of the relevant record date. Pursuant to Article X of the Bylaws, stockholder approval was not required to amend the Bylaws.

As of June 30, 2023, the Company has completed and fulfilled substantially all of its orders associated with its long-term media and entertainment customer and does not anticipate significant business from this customer in the future. This resulted from an acceleration in such 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 is particularly true of their virtual products, which do not require the same level of ruggedization, as this system is not typically operated in harsh environments and for which software is being developed to provide a real-time cloud solution. This customer’s transition to cloud solutions had a negative impact on the Company’s results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, and is expected to continue to have a negative impact on the Company’s results of operations for the near term.

As previously disclosed, in 2021, we shifted our primary focus to the development and sale of AI Transportables. Since 2022, we have significantly increased our efforts to penetrate the military and defense sectors in particular. With the formation of a new strategic advisory board in second quarter 2022 and the recent hiring of a

new president and chief executive officer and new vice president of sales, both with 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.

The lingering negative impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic and the 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, including inflation and Federal Reserve interest rate increases, have contributed to global supply chain issues and economic uncertainty, which has negatively affected our operations. Additionally, during the first half of 2023, the general consensus among economists continued to suggest that a risk of recession 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 are continuing to experience increased pricing, longer 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. 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 experiencing 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 three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company experienced delays and postponements of committed 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 negatively impacted the Company’s results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023. 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.

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 as may be required by federal, state, or local authorities 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.

In March 2023, Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank, and most recently on May 1, 2023, First Republic Bank, were closed and taken over by the FDIC, which created significant market disruption and uncertainty for those who bank with those institutions, and which raised significant concern regarding the stability of the banking system in the United States, and in particular with respect to regional banks. If other banks and financial institutions enter receivership or become insolvent in the future in response to financial conditions affecting the banking system and financial markets, our ability to access our cash and cash equivalents may be threatened and such events could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.

As a result of these global issues, as well as other factors discussed in this Quarterly Report, 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 Federal Reserve interest rate increases and the potential for a recession. 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.

Components of Results of Operations

Revenue

29

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 and expense consists of miscellaneous income and expense from activities outside of our core business and is inclusive of interest income from investing activities and interest expense incurred by financing activities.

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.

Other income (expense), for the three months ended June 30, 2023, resulted in net other income of $31,837, as compared to net other expense of $4,169, in the same period in 2022, for an improvement of $36,006.

Other income (expense), for the six months ended June 30, 2023, resulted in net other income of $11,614, as compared to net other income of $97,952, in the same period in 2022, for a net decrease of $86,338. The most significant contributions to the year-over-year change include the sale of a URL for Magma.com in 2022 for $125,000.

Provision for income taxes

We have recorded an income tax provision of $396,863 and $85,490, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, and $658,365 and $250,798, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, differed from the statutory rate mainly due to permanent non-deductible goodwill amortization for OSS Europe and impairment of goodwill attributable to OSS Classic, 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. 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, 2023, was 28.86%, as compared to 20.86% in the prior period in 2022.

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, 2023, we had total cash and cash equivalents of $6,100,317, with short-term investments of $9,321,456, and total working capital of $35,947,245. Cash and cash equivalents held by OSS Europe totaled US$2,448,439 on June 30, 2023. OSS Europe’s debt covenants do not permit the use of those funds by its parent company.

During the year ended December 31, 2022, we had income from operations of $1,568,328, with cash used by operating activities of $7,806,025.

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 growth. In addition, as part of our business strategy, we occasionally evaluate potential acquisitions of businesses, products and technologies. Accordingly, a portion of our available cash may be used at any time for the acquisition of complementary products or businesses. Such potential transactions may require substantial capital resources, which may require us to seek additional debt or equity financing. We cannot assure you that we will be able to successfully identify suitable acquisition candidates, complete acquisitions, successfully integrate acquired businesses into our current operations, or expand into new markets. Furthermore, we cannot provide assurances that additional financing will be available to us in any required time frame and on commercially reasonable terms, if at all.

As discussed elsewhere in this Quarterly Report, during the first and second quarters of 2023, the general consensus among economists continued to suggest that a risk of recession 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 media customer, to continue our efforts towards responding to the changing economic landscape, including inflation, foreign currency exchange rates, a potential recession, increases in the Federal Reserve interest rate, the current instability of the banking system in the United States, supply chain constraints and international conflicts, by continuing to control hiring and operating costs, conserve cash, and continual focus on improving margin.

While management expects these actions and continued diligence towards cost growth and expense containment, our results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and the year ended December 31, 2022, partially benefited from such actions particularly those resulting from a reduction in force in April 2023. 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.

35

In April 2022, the Company obtained a domestic revolving line of credit of $2,000,000 from its bank, which was renewed in April 2023 and renews on an annual basis at the current prime rate. To access this line of credit the Company must maintain cash and investments balances at a minimum of $4,000,000. Although the Company has not drawn down on the line of credit to date, it may choose to do so in the future.

As a result of management’s implementation of our cost reduction plans, our potential sources of liquidity and 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 three month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022:

|  | For the Six Months Ended June 30, |
Cash flows: |  | 2023 |  |  | 2022 |
Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities |  | $ | 2,048,934 |  |  | $ | (7,576,355 | )
Net cash provided by investing activities |  | $ | 503,054 |  |  | $ | 2,878,600 |
Net cash provided by financing activities |  | $ | 413,575 |  |  | $ | 2,614,463 |

Operating Activities

During the six month period ended June 30, 2023, we provided $2,048,984 in cash for operating activities, a difference of $9,625,289 when compared to the cash used in operating activities of $7,576,355 during the same period in 2022.

The change in cash provided by operating activities during the six month period ended June 30, 2023, as compared to cash used in operating activities in the same period in 2022, is primarily a result a net increase in the sources of operating cash flow for working capital items of $11,256,362. This increase was offset by a reduction in profitability from net income in 2022 of $902,056, to a net loss of $2,800,008 in the current year, a reduction of $3,702,064.

Additionally, there were net unfavorable adjustments in the current period for non-cash items of $2,070,991, which were comprised of $3,476,436 of favorable non-cash items, inclusive of the write-down for the impairment of goodwill, offset by $107,204 of negative non-cash items that did not affect operating cash flow and exclusion of $1,298,241 for the employee retention credit.

Net working capital sources for the six month period ended June 30, 2023, were $1,184,919, as compared to the prior year period uses of working capital of $10,071,443, a reduction in the use of working capital of $11,256,362. The source of working capital of $17,694,596 was attributable to changes in accounts receivables, inventory levels, and accrued expenses and other liabilities for the comparable period. These sources were offset by uses of working capital of $6,438,234 being applied to changes in prepaid expenses and other current assets and accounts payable.

36

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, 2023, the Company generated cash of $503,054 in investing activities, as compared to $2,878,000 provided by investing activities during the prior year period in 2022, a net decrease of $2,375,546. The source of investing funds was attributable to the redemption of short-term investments in both years and the sale of the Magma.com URL in the prior year. 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, 2023, the Company generated $413,575 resulting from funds received in conjunction with the ERC program offset by debt service payments on OSS Europe borrowings and payment of tax on the net exercise of vested RSUs. During the same period in 2022, the Company generated cash through proceeds for new borrowings for inventory at OSS Europe.

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 experiencing 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, 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 three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company experienced delays and postponements of committed 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 negatively impacted the Company’s results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023. 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.

As discussed in this Quarterly Report, the world has been affected due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine and economic uncertainty, amongst other things. Inflation has risen, Federal Reserve interest rates have increased recently, there is still some concern regarding instability of the banking systems in the United States and the general consensus among economists suggests that we should continue to expect a risk of recession will continue for the foreseeable future. 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.

As of June 30, 2023, the Company has completed and fulfilled substantially all of its orders associated with its long-term media and entertainment customer and does not anticipate any significant business from this customer in the future. This resulted from an acceleration in such 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 is particularly true of their virtual products, which do not require the same level of ruggedization as this system is not typically operated in harsh environments and for which software is being developed to provide a real-time cloud solution. This customer’s transition to cloud solutions had a negative impact on the Company’s results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, and is expected to continue to have a negative impact on the Company’s results of operations for the near term.

37

As previously disclosed, in 2021, we shifted our primary focus to the development and sale of AI Transportables. Since 2022, we have significantly increased our efforts to penetrate the military and defense sectors in particular that typically have protracted sales cycles, significant contracting requirements, and multi-year deliverables. With the formation of a new strategic advisory board in second quarter 2022 and the recent hiring of a new president and chief executive officer and new vice president of sales, both with 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.

Additionally, in March 2023, Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank, and most recently on May 1, 2023, First Republic Bank, were closed and taken over by the FDIC, which has created significant market disruption for those who bank with those institutions, and which raised significant concern regarding the stability of the banking system in the United States, and in particular with respect to regional banks. If other banks and financial institutions enter receivership or become insolvent in the future in response to financial conditions affecting the banking system and financial markets, our ability to access our cash and cash equivalents may be threatened and such events could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.

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 of 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.

In the first and second quarters of 2023, we implemented certain internal organizational changes to align our US-based operations with, and to further support and accelerate our strategy to focus on, the AI Transportables industry and our military business. In furtherance of this strategy and our goals, on June 5, 2023, David Raun, then the Company’s chief executive officer, stepped down from such roles and Michael Knowles was appointed to serve in such roles. Mr. Raun currently continues to serve as a member of the Company’s board of directors. Additionally, subsequent to the quarter ended June 30, 2023, on July 17, 2023, we hired a new vice president of sales with significant relevant experience. Furthermore, on August 8, 2023, Jack Harrison and Sita Lowman tendered their resignations from our board of directors and the relevant committees thereof, effective September 30, 2023. Additionally, on August 8, 2023, the board appointed Michael Knowles, our Chief Executive Officer and President, and retired Admiral Michael Dumont, a member of our advisory board, as directors of the Company, effective September 30, 2023, to fill the vacancies created by the resignations of Mr. Harrison and Ms. Lowman. These changes were part of the first phase of our previously announced plans to reprofile our board of directors to further align with our focus on AI Transportables and our military business. Consistent with previous disclosures, we intend to make additional changes to the composition of our board over the coming year.

Inflation

We experienced some affects due to inflation during the most recent period, including increased product pricing of semiconductor products, 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 minimizing price increases. Inflation affects the Company’s manufacturing costs, distribution costs and operating expenses.

38

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 9 to the accompanying 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, 2022.

We periodically re-evaluate and adjust our critical accounting policies as circumstances change. There were no significant changes to our critical accounting policies during the three month period ended June 30, 2023.

Recently implemented accounting pronouncements

Effective January 1, 2023, the Company implemented ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments”). See Note 2 "Significant Accounting Policies" in the accompanying condensed 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. The Federal Reserve interest rates have increased recently and may increase further in the near term.

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, 2023, the Company had $250,000 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. OSS Europe has funds on deposit in both Euro and U.S. dollar denominations of €1,898,289 (US$2,072,507) 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 primarily in the United States. Foreign sales of products and services are primarily denominated in U.S. dollars. We also conduct business outside the United States through OSS Europe 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

39

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 OSS Europe 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 using 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.

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 income and basic and diluted earnings per share:

|  | For the Three Months Ended June 30, |  |  | For the Six Months Ended June 30, |
|  | 2023 |  |  | 2022 |  |  | 2023 |  |  | 2022 |

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

41

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: |  | 2023 |  |  | 2022 |
Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities |  | $ | 2,048,934 |  |  | $ | (7,576,355 | )
Capital expenditures |  |  | (299,891 | ) |  |  | (141,685 | )

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 (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, 2023, 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.

Item 5. Other Information.

On August 8, 2023, Jack Harrison and Sita Lowman tendered their resignations from the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”) and the relevant committees thereof, effective September 30, 2023. Mr. Harrison’s and Ms. Lowman’s decision to resign from their positions as directors on the Company’s Board was consistent with the Company’s previously announced plans to reprofile the Board, and was not the result of any disagreement with the Company on any matter relating to the Company’s operations, policies or practices.

On August 8, 2023, the Board appointed Michael Knowles, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and President, and retired Admiral Michael Dumont, a member of the Company’s advisory board, as directors of the Company, effective September 30, 2023, to fill the vacancies created by the resignations of Mr. Harrison and Ms. Lowman. Commencing September 30, 2023, Mr. Knowles and Mr. Dumont will hold the director positions until the Company’s next annual meeting of stockholders or until their respective successors are elected and qualified, subject to their earlier death, resignation or removal. The Company has not yet determined which committees of the Board, if any, Mr. Knowles and Mr. Dumont may be appointed to.

There is no arrangement or understanding between Mr. Knowles or Mr. Dumont and any other person pursuant to which either Mr. Knowles or Mr. Dumont were selected as directors of the Company. Other than pursuant to the employment agreement previously entered into by and between the Company and Mr. Knowles, and in the case of Mr. Dumont, the Company’s formal plan for compensating its non-executive directors for their services, there are no plans, contracts or arrangements or amendments to any plans, contracts or arrangements entered into with Mr. Knowles or Mr. Dumont in connection with their election to the Board, nor were there any equity grants or awards made to either of Mr. Knowles or Mr. Dumont in connection therewith. Neither Mr. Knowles nor Mr. Dumont is a participant in, nor are they to be a participant in, any related-person transaction or proposed related-person transaction required to be disclosed by Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K under the Exchange Act.
