Written by Customer Service on . Posted in Earnings Releases And Operating Results.

NEW YORK, May 22, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — DSS, Inc. (NYSE American: DSS), a multinational company operating across diverse industries including packaging, real estate, and biomedical innovation, today announced financial results for the first quarter of 2025, highlighting meaningful progress in its financial repositioning and a strong foundation for corporate execution in the coming quarters.

In a quarter focused on streamlining operations and financial discipline, DSS delivered significant improvements in key financial metrics:

  • 28% Year-Over-Year Revenue Growth: Total revenues rose sharply, fueled by a 30% increase in printed product sales and a nearly doubling of rental income from the company’s real estate segment, which grew from $400,000 to $714,000.
  • Strategic Asset Monetization: The Company completed the sale of its Plano, TX facility, for $9.5 million, contributing to $12.88 million in cash from investing activities during the quarter.
  • Debt Reduction and Capital Discipline: DSS used proceeds from asset sales and investments to pay down over $8 million in total debt, reflecting a clear commitment to balance sheet optimization.
  • Strengthening Shareholder Equity: Through its partner company Impact BioMedical, DSS raised $1.5 million in new equity capital during Q1.
  • Improved Operating Cash Flow: Net cash used in operations improved from $2.15 million in Q1 2024 to $1.64 million in Q1 2025, underscoring early operational efficiencies.

“These results show clear, measurable progress in the financial realignment strategy we launched earlier this year,” said Jason Grady, CEO of DSS, Inc. “In my January letter to shareholders, I outlined the urgent need to cut inefficiencies, strengthen our balance sheet, and lay the groundwork for sustained growth. This quarter proves that work is paying off. As we continue to streamline operations, we’re now turning our attention toward execution in our core verticals and identifying smart, accretive opportunities that will drive long-term value. The foundation is in place and now we’re building on it.”

The Company plans to continue to showcase measurable results from initiatives in development, operations, and M&A activity as the year progresses. With a renewed focus on high-potential business units and capital allocation, DSS is positioning itself for a dynamic second half of 2025 and beyond.
