April 10th, 2020: CEO Letter to Shareholders
https://www.otcmarkets.com/filing/html?id=14067745&guid=bc1HUaH2vzpki3h#EX99-1_HTM

Dear Valued Shareholders,

For Transportation and Logistics Systems, Inc. (the “Company” or “TLSS”), 2019 was a year of both encouraging developments and several challenges.

Revenue more than doubled during the year, reaching $32.0 million, compared to revenue of $18.1 million in 2018.
While the recent coronavirus pandemic has affected the country in dramatic ways, the Company’s delivery operations on behalf of Amazon and our other customers remain active. Shipping has been classified as an “essential business” and consumers have been increasing their online purchases due to sequestering, leading to growing demand for our services. In fact, Amazon has provided additional financial support to implement an hourly pay rate hike for our van drivers and raised our allowance for leased vans.

The transportation and logistics sector is an integral and growing part of the U.S. economy that has experienced significant growth since the country had emerged from recession. Over the ten years between 2008 and 2017, the industry has grown 12.7% and added 416,316 jobs. This growth outpaced the 5% job growth of the U.S. as a whole over the same time period. With the growing e-commerce sector driving the growth of the logistics market, the U.S. e-commerce industry is expected to register exponential growth going forward and account for 7% of all U.S. retail sales by 2023. Lasting changes to the economy from the effects of the pandemic may accelerate this growth.

As such, the Company increased its number of vehicles, drivers, and independent contract drivers in anticipation of an increase in business during the holiday shopping season. In addition, the Company opened several new locations in the States of Georgia, Florida, Ohio and Tennessee, during the months of October through December 2019, adding to our existing locations in New Jersey, New York and Pennsylvania. This expansion contributed to the $10.0 million of revenue generated during the final quarter of 2019, which was nearly one-third of total revenue for the year.

March 31st, 2020: TLSS Implements $1.0 Million In Cost Reductions
Latest Restructuring Initiatives Target Overhead Expenses to Improve Operating Margins

WEST PALM BEACH, FLORIDA, March 31, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via NEWMEDIAWIRE -- Transportation and Logistics Systems, Inc. (OTC: TLSS), (“TLSS", or the “Company"), a leading eCommerce fulfillment service provider, announced today its latest action to improve its overall financial condition. To strengthen the Company’s financial foundation, TLSS is implementing cost-cutting measures to reduce its annualized operating, administrative and corporate expenses by approximately $1.0 million, without any reduction in its employed drivers, the majority of which are effective immediately.
Sebastian Giordano, TLSS’ turnaround and restructuring consultant, indicated that “on the heels of last week’s announcement of a settlement agreement for outstanding merchant credit advances that will reduce and eliminate approximately $1.7 million of high-interest debt when completed, management and the Board of Directors are continuing to evaluate all opportunities to restructure the Company’s balance sheet and improve current operating results. The Company believes that these expense reductions are a significant step towards achieving that objective.”

March 24th, 2020: TLSS Announces $1.7 Million in Debt Settlement Agreements

Transportation and Logistics Systems, Inc. (OTC: TLSS), (“TLSS", or the “Company"), a leading eCommerce fulfillment service provider, announced today that it has entered into several debt settlement agreements which, when finalized, will eliminate a total of approximately $1.7 million of high interest rate loans.
The settlements include four (4) outstanding merchant credit advance loans in the aggregate amount of approximately $1,600,000 and a Senior Secured Promissory Note (“Secured Note”) in the approximate amount of $100,000 as well as the cancellation of 40,300 common stock warrants that were issued in connection with the Secured Note. TLSS will pay approximately $1,100,000, in the aggregate, to settle the debts (together, the “Debt Settlements”). Once completed, the Debt Settlements will also eliminate all default penalties, unpaid accrued interest, legal fees and other charges that could have been assessed on these debt instruments.
According to Sebastian Giordano, who was recently engaged as a turnaround and restructuring consultant and who negotiated the Debt Settlements, “TLSS’s cashflow has been severely hampered during the last several months by these high-interest loans which required the Company to make payments of over $500,000 per month in principal and interest. While more work remains to be done to stabilize the Company’s balance sheet, these discounted settlements are a significant first step toward improving the Company’s financial condition.”

March 19th, 2020: Transportation and Logistics Systems, Inc. Expands Operations to Accommodate Increased ECommerce DemandMarch 10th, 2020: TLSS Engages Sebastian Giordano as Turnaround and Restructuring Consultant

Mr. Giordano has more than thirty-years of strategic, operational and operations experience in leading start-up businesses, turnaround situations and emerging growth companies, as well as an extensive background with public companies, mergers and acquisitions and capital raising. In February 2013, Mr. Giordano joined WPCS International Incorporated as a member of its board of directors. He was subsequently named Interim Chief Executive Officer in August 2013 and Chief Executive Officer in April 2016, while leading a successful restructuring of WPCS, primarily through the: (i) sale and/or closing of unprofitable business units; (ii) reduction of millions of dollars in administrative costs; and (iii) elimination of all secured debt. This restructuring culminated in the completion of a reverse merger with DropCar, Inc. (NASDAQ: DCAR). Mr. Giordano currently serves on the board of directors of DCAR and following the reverse merger, provided consulting services to DCAR from July 2018 to March 2019.

March 3rd, 2020: TLSS Selects PCG Advisory for Investor Relations and Strategic Communications

Jeff Ramson, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of PCG Advisory, commented, "The logistics and transportation industry is an important and growing part of the U.S. economy. The sector has experienced significant growth in the ten years since the country has emerged from recession, growing 12.7% between 2008 and 2017 and adding 416,316 jobs. This outpaced the 5% job growth of the U.S. as a whole over the same time period. With the growing e-commerce sector driving the growth of the logistics market, the U.S. e-commerce industry is expected to register an exponential growth rate and account for 7% of all U.S. retail sales by 2023. We believe that TLSS can benefit from these trends and we look forward to executing a strategic communications program for them.”
