ANNUAL
MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS
to
be held on December 7, 2016
PROXY
STATEMENT
The
accompanying form of proxy is solicited on behalf of the Board of Directors of TSR, Inc. (the “Company”) for use at
the Annual Meeting of the Stockholders of the Company (the “Annual Meeting”) to be held at the offices of the Company
at 400 Oser Avenue, Suite 150, Hauppauge, New York 11788, on December 7, 2016 at 9:00 a.m. or at any adjournment thereof. The
solicitation of proxies will be made by the Board of Directors of the Company by mail and the cost will be borne by the Company.
Proxies
in the accompanying form which are properly executed and duly returned to the Company and not revoked will be voted as specified
and, if no direction is made, will be voted (i) in favor of the election of the candidate for director under Proposal 1, (ii)
in favor of the approval of the advisory resolution approving the compensation of the Executive Officers (as hereafter defined)
under Proposal 2 and (iii) in favor of the ratification of CohnReznick LLP as the Company’s independent registered public
accountants. Each of the proposals is set forth in the accompanying Notice of Annual Meeting of Stockholders. Each proxy granted
is revocable and may be revoked at any time prior to its exercise by advising the Company in writing of its revocation. In addition,
a Stockholder who attends the Annual Meeting in person may, if the Stockholder wishes, vote by ballot at the Annual Meeting, thereby
canceling any proxy previously given.
This
Proxy Statement, the enclosed form of proxy and the Company's Annual Report for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2016 were first
mailed on or about November 4, 2016 to holders of record of shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $.01 per share
(“Common Stock”), as of October 28, 2016. Only Stockholders of record at the close of business on October 28, 2016
are entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. On October 28, 2016 there were 1,960,062 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding.
The
presence of a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock entitled to vote constitutes a quorum at the Annual
Meeting. Shares of Common Stock represented in person or by proxy at the Annual Meeting (including shares that abstain or do not
vote with respect to one or more of the matters presented at the Annual Meeting) will be tabulated by the inspector of election
appointed for the Annual Meeting whose tabulation will determine whether or not a quorum is present. Abstentions will be counted
as shares that are present and entitled to vote for purposes of determining the presence of a quorum with respect to any matter,
but will not be counted as votes in favor of such matter. If a broker holding stock in "street name" indicates on the
proxy that it does not have discretionary authority as to certain shares to vote on a matter, those shares will not be considered
as present and entitled to vote with respect to that matter. Accordingly, a "broker non-vote" on a matter will have
no effect on the voting.
Each
share of Common Stock is entitled to one vote on each matter. Candidates for election as members of the Board of Directors who
receive the highest number of votes, up to the number of directors to be chosen, shall stand elected; an absolute majority of
the votes cast is not a prerequisite to the election of any candidate to the Board of Directors. A majority of the votes cast
at the Annual Meeting is required to approve the non-binding advisory resolution under Proposal 2 approving the compensation of
the Company’s Executive Officers (as hereafter defined). A majority of the votes cast at the Annual Meeting is
required to ratify the appointment of CohnReznick LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accountants under Proposal
3. Accordingly, abstentions have no effect on the outcome of any of the Proposals subject to approval by the Stockholders.
Directions

Corporate
Governance Matters
The
Company maintains the following committees of the Board of Directors: the Compensation Committee, the Nominating Committee and
the Audit Committee.
James
J. Hill, Raymond A. Roel and Brian J. Mangan are independent members of the Board of Directors under the rules of the NASDAQ Capital
Market. In addition, each member of each committee
of the Board of Directors meets the definition of “independence”
under the rules of the NASDAQ Capital Market. The Board of Directors also has determined that Brian J. Mangan, the Chair of the
Audit Committee, meets the requirements of an “audit committee financial expert” as such term is defined in applicable
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.
During
the fiscal year ended May 31, 2016, the Board of Directors held nine meetings; the Audit Committee held five meetings; the Compensation
Committee held two meetings; and the Nominating Committee held two meetings. During such fiscal year, no director attended fewer
than 75% of the aggregate of the total number of meetings of the Board and the total number of meetings of all committees of the
Board of which he was a member, except for Mr. Mangan, who was not appointed to the Board until January 2016. The Company does
not have a formal policy regarding attendance of directors at the Annual Meetings of Stockholders, but the Company encourages
all directors to attend. All of the directors attended the 2015 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, except for Mr. Mangan who had
not been appointed to the Board at the time of the 2015 Annual Meeting.
The
Audit Committee
The
Audit Committee’s current members are Brian J. Mangan (Chairman), James J. Hill and Raymond A. Roel. Robert A. Esernio,
the previous Chairman of the Audit Committee, resigned from the Board of Directors effective September 2, 2016, and the Board
appointed Mr. Mangan to succeed him as Chairman of the Audit Committee. Each of the members of the Audit Committee is an independent
director under the rules of the NASDAQ Capital Market. The Audit Committee’s primary functions are to assist the Board in
monitoring the integrity of the Company’s financial statements and systems of internal control. The Audit Committee has
direct responsibility for the appointment, independence and performance of the Company’s independent auditors. The Audit
Committee is responsible for pre-approving any engagements of the Company’s independent auditors. The Audit Committee operates
under a written charter approved by the Board on September 16, 2004, and amended as of October 10, 2008. A copy of this audit
committee charter is available on the Investor Relations page of the Company’s website at www.tsrconsulting.com.
The
Compensation Committee
The
Compensation Committee’s current members are Raymond A. Roel (Chairman), James J. Hill and Brian J. Mangan. Each of the
members of the Compensation Committee is an independent director under the rules of the NASDAQ Capital Market. The Compensation
Committee assesses the structure of the Company’s management team and the overall performance of the Company. It oversees
executive compensation by approving salary increases and other compensation to executive officers. The Board has adopted
a written charter for the Compensation Committee, a copy of which is available on the Company’s website at www.tsrconsulting.com.
Under its charter, the committee has authority to retain and approve the fees of independent compensation consultants or other
advisors.
The
Nominating Committee
The
Nominating Committee’s current members are Brian J. Mangan (Chairman), James J. Hill and Raymond A. Roel. Robert A. Esernio,
the previous Chairman of the Nominating Committee, resigned from the Board of Directors effective September 2, 2016, and the Board
appointed Mr. Mangan to succeed him as Chairman of the Nominating Committee. Each of the members of the Nominating Committee is
an independent director under the rules of the NASDAQ Capital Market. A copy of the Nominating Committee Charter is available
on the Investor Relations page of the Company’s website at www.tsrconsulting.com. The Nominating Committee determines the
criteria for nominating new directors, recommends to the Board of Directors candidates for nomination to the Board of Directors
and oversees the evaluation of the Board of Directors. The Nominating Committee’s process to identify and evaluate candidates
for nomination to the Board of Directors includes consideration of candidates for nomination to the Board of Directors recommended
by stockholders. Such stockholder recommendations must be delivered to the Corporate Secretary of the Company, together with the
information required to be filed in a Proxy Statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission regarding director nominees
and each such nominee must consent to serve as a director if elected, no later than the deadline for submission of stockholder
proposals as set forth in our Bylaws and under the section of this Proxy Statement entitled “Stockholder Nominations.”
In considering and evaluating such stockholder proposals that have been properly submitted, the Nominating Committee will apply
substantially the same criteria that the Nominating Committee believes must be met by a nominee recommended by the Nominating
Committee as described below. To date, the Company has not received any recommendations from stockholders requesting that the
Nominating Committee consider a candidate for inclusion among the Nominating Committee’s slate of nominees in this proxy
statement.
In
addition, certain identification and disclosure rules apply to director candidate proposals submitted to the Nominating Committee
by any single stockholder or group of stockholders that has beneficially owned more than five percent of the Common Stock for
at least one year (a “Qualified Stockholder Proposal”). If the Nominating Committee receives a Qualified Stockholder
Proposal that satisfies the necessary notice, information and consent provision referenced above, the Proxy Statement will identify
the candidate and the stockholder (or stockholder group) that recommended the candidate and disclose whether the Nominating Committee
chose to nominate the candidate. However, no such identification or disclosure will be made without the written consent of both
the stockholder (or stockholder group) and the candidate to be so identified. The procedures described in this paragraph are meant
to establish additional requirements and are not meant to replace or limit stockholders’ general nomination rights in any
way.
In
evaluating director nominees, the Nominating Committee currently considers the following factors:
|
●
|
the
Company’s needs with respect to the particular talents and experience of our directors;
|
|
●
|
the
knowledge, skills and experience of nominees, including experience in business or finance,
in light of prevailing business conditions and the knowledge, skills and experience already
possessed by other members of the Board of Directors;
|
|
●
|
familiarity
with the Company’s business and businesses similar or analogous to that of the
Company;
|
|
●
|
experience
with accounting rules and practices and corporate governance principles; and
|
|
●
|
such
other factors as the Nominating Committee deems are in the best interests of the Company
and the best interests of the Company’s stockholders.
|
Qualified
candidates for membership on the Board will be considered without a particular focus on the diversity of the Board’s membership,
and without regard to race, color, creed, religion, national origin, age, gender, sexual orientation or disability.
The
Nominating Committee identifies nominees by first evaluating the current members of the Board of Directors willing to continue
in service. If any member of the Board does not wish to continue in service or if the Nominating Committee or the Board of Directors
decides not to re-nominate a member for re-election, the Nominating Committee identifies the desired skills and experience of
a new nominee, and discusses with the Board of Directors suggestions as to individuals who meet the criteria.
Board
Leadership Structure
Mr. Joseph
Hughes serves as both the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Directors. Mr. Joseph Hughes
has served in this capacity since the Company’s formation in 1969. The Company does not presently have a lead independent
director. In view of the small size of the Company and Mr. Hughes’ traditional role as both Chief Executive Officer and
Chairman of the Board of Directors, the Board of Directors believes that the centralization of leadership through the combination
of these two roles in a single individual promotes the development and implementation of corporate strategy and advancement of
the Company’s goals. With over 40 years of experience as Chief Executive Officer of the Company, Mr. Hughes has
a breadth of unique and specialized knowledge about the Company’s business operations. Mr. Hughes solicits input from
the Company’s Board of Directors regarding the board agenda and processes.
The
Board of Directors’ Audit Committee, of which Brian J. Mangan acts as Chairman and which consists entirely of independent
directors, acts independently of the Chairman of the Board and exercises an oversight role in this capacity. The non-management
directors, each of whom is an independent director under the rules of the NASDAQ Capital Market, also meet in executive session
without any members of management present.
The
Company believes the role of management is to identify and manage risks confronting the Company. The Board of Directors plays
an integral part in the Company’s risk oversight, particularly in reviewing the processes used by management to identify
and report risk, and also in monitoring corporate actions so as to minimize inappropriate levels of risk. The Board of Directors
as a whole is also responsible for overseeing strategic and enterprise risk. A discussion of risks that the Company faces is conducted
at regularly scheduled meetings of the Board of Directors and committee meetings.
Meetings
of Independent Directors
Directors
who are independent under the NASDAQ Capital Market listing standards and applicable laws and regulations have not met in separate
committee; rather, the independent directors hold discussions among them without the presence of management in conjunction with
meetings of the Audit Committee and Compensation Committee, as they deem necessary.
Code
of Ethics
The
Company has adopted a code of ethics that applies to all of the employees, including the chief executive officer and chief financial
and accounting officer. The code of ethics is available on the Investor Relations page of the Company’s website at www.tsrconsulting.com.
The Company intends to post on its website all disclosures that are required by law or NASDAQ Capital Market listing standards
concerning any amendments to, or waivers from, the Company’s code of ethics. Stockholders may request a free copy of the
code of ethics by writing to Corporate Secretary, TSR, Inc., 400 Oser Avenue, Hauppauge, NY 11788. Disclosure regarding any amendments
to, or waivers from, provisions of the code of ethics that apply to the Company’s directors or principal executive and financial
officers will be included in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission within four business
days following the date of the amendment or waiver, unless website posting of such amendments or waivers is then permitted by
the rules of the NASDAQ Capital Market and the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Stockholder
Nominations
Under
the Company’s Bylaws a stockholder must follow certain procedures to nominate persons for election as directors or to introduce
an item of business at an annual meeting of stockholders. Among other requirements, these procedures require any nomination or
proposed item of business to be submitted in writing to the Company’s Corporate Secretary at its principal executive offices.
The Company must receive the notice of a stockholder’s intention to introduce a nomination or proposed item of business
at an annual meeting no later than 75 days nor more than 120 days prior to the anniversary date of the prior year’s
annual meeting. However, if the annual meeting is scheduled to be held on a date more than 30 days before the anniversary date
or more than 60 days after the anniversary date, a stockholder’s notice must be given not later than the later of (i) the
75
th
day prior to the scheduled date of the annual meeting or (ii) the 15
th
day following the day on which
public announcement of the date of the annual meeting is first made by the Company.
Stockholder
Communications with Directors
Generally,
stockholders who have questions or concerns should contact the Company’s Corporate Secretary at (631) 231-0333. Any
stockholder who wishes to address questions regarding the Company’s business directly with the Board of Directors, or any
individual director, should direct his or her questions, in writing, in care of the Company’s Secretary, at the Company’s
offices at 400 Oser Avenue, Hauppauge, NY 11788.

agreement provided for an initial annual base salary of $250,000, subject to increase in the discretion of the President of the

base salary plus (ii) two times his bonus for the then current fiscal year, or if that amount cannot be determined, two times
the amount of the bonus paid to him for the prior fiscal year, and all employee benefits for a period of twenty-four months after
termination.
Mr.
John Sharkey’s employment agreement provides that if he terminates his employment with the Company in connection with a

PROPOSAL
2 - ADVISORY RESOLUTION TO APPROVE COMPENSATION OF EXECUTIVE OFFICERS
Section
14A of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder provide that, not less frequently than once every
three years, an issuer shall include in its proxy statement for its annual meeting of shareholders an advisory resolution subject
to a shareholder vote to approve the compensation of the Company’s Executive Officers. Accordingly, you are asked
to approve the compensation of the Company’s Executive Officers as described under the heading “Executive Compensation”
beginning on page 11, including the compensation tables and the related narrative discussion, by voting in favor of the following
advisory resolution:
“
RESOLVED
,
that the stockholders of TSR, Inc. approve the compensation of the Executive Officers as discussed and disclosed pursuant to Item
402 of Regulation S-K, including the compensation tables and narrative discussion.”
Under
the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, your vote is advisory and will not be binding upon the Company
or the Board of Directors and will not be construed to overrule any decision by the Company or the Board or require the Board
to take any action. However, the Compensation Committee and the Board of Directors will take the outcome of this advisory
vote into consideration when considering future compensation arrangements for the Executive Officers and whether any adjustments
or modifications are warranted.
In
fiscal 2013, the Compensation Committee engaged Steven Hall & Partners, an independent executive compensation consulting firm,
to review the compensation paid to the Company’s Executive Officers. Based on Steven Hall & Partners’ findings,
the Compensation Committee and the Board of Directors believe that the compensation paid to the Executive Officers is consistent
with competitive practice. The Compensation Committee will continue to monitor and review the amount and form of the Executive
Officers’ compensation on a going-forward basis. Accordingly, the Board of Directors unanimously recommends a
vote
FOR
the approval of the advisory resolution approving the compensation of the Executive Officers, as described in
this Proxy Statement.
The
affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast at the Annual Meeting will approve this advisory resolution.
The
next vote to approve an advisory resolution approving the compensation of the Executive Officers will be held at the Company’s
2019 annual meeting of stockholders.
CERTAIN
RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS
The
Audit Committee is responsible for reviewing and approving all transactions between the Company and any related party pursuant
to the Audit Committee’s charter. The Company was not a participant in any transaction since the beginning of the 2016 fiscal
year in which any related person had a direct or indirect material interest and in which the amount involved exceeded the lesser
of $120,000 or 1% of the average of the Company’s total assets at the end of each of the Company’s two prior fiscal
years, and no such transactions are currently proposed, except that Lisa Bank, daughter of Joseph F. Hughes and sister of Christopher
Hughes, was employed by the Company during fiscal 2016 as Director of Training and was paid annual cash compensation of $120,000.
The employment relationship between the Company and Ms. Bank and the level of compensation paid to her was consistent with the
terms of employment with and compensation paid to unrelated persons.
Mr.
Joseph F. Hughes would be deemed to be a parent of the Company due to his beneficial ownership of 46.9% of the outstanding Common
Stock of the Company at September 16, 2016 and his positions as President and Chief Executive Officer.
AUDIT
COMMITTEE REPORT
The
Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company for the 2016 Fiscal Year
with the Company’s management. The Audit Committee has separately discussed with CohnReznick LLP, the Company’s independent
registered public accounting firm for the 2016 Fiscal Year, the matters required to be discussed by Statement of Auditing Standards
No. 61, as amended, (AICPA, Professional Standards, Vol. 1, AU section 380), as adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight
Board in Rule 3200T.
The
Audit Committee has also received the written disclosures and the letter from CohnReznick LLP required by applicable requirements
of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding the independent accountant’s communications with the Audit Committee
concerning independence, and the Audit Committee has discussed with CohnReznick LLP the independence of that firm from the Company.
Based
on the Audit Committee’s review and discussions noted above, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board of Directors that
the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements be included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for
the 2016 Fiscal Year for filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

SECTION
16(a) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE
Section
16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, requires the Company’s officers and directors and persons who
beneficially own more than ten percent of a registered class of the Company’s equity securities to file reports of ownership
and changes in ownership with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”). Officers, directors and greater
than ten percent Stockholders are required by regulation of the Commission to furnish the Company with copies of all Section 16(a)
forms they file.
Based
solely on its review of the copies of such forms received by it, or written representations from certain reporting persons that
no Forms 5 were required for those persons, the Company believes that, during the fiscal year ended May 31, 2016, all filing requirements
applicable to its officers, directors and greater than ten percent beneficial owners were satisfied.
PROPOSAL
3 – RATIFICATION OF APPOINTMENT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
RELATIONSHIP
WITH INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
CohnReznick
LLP has been appointed by the Company's Audit Committee and Board of Directors as the independent registered public accounting
firm for the Company to audit and report on the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ending May
31, 2017. CohnReznick LLP audited and reported on the Company's consolidated financial statements for the year ended May 31, 2016.
The Company expects that a representative of CohnReznick LLP will be present at the Annual Meeting with an opportunity to make
a statement if he or she desires to do so and will be available to respond to appropriate questions. The appointment of CohnReznick
LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm will be ratified if it receives the affirmative vote
of the holders of a majority of shares of the Company's Common Stock present at the Annual Meeting, in person or by proxy. Submission
of the appointment of the independent registered public accounting firm to the stockholders for ratification will not limit the
authority of the Audit Committee and Board of Directors to appoint another accounting firm to serve as the independent registered
public accounting firm if the present accountants resign or their engagement is otherwise terminated. If the stockholders do not
ratify the appointment of CohnReznick LLP at the Annual Meeting, the selection of CohnReznick LLP may be reconsidered by the Audit
Committee and Board of Directors. The Audit Committee is responsible for approving engagement of the independent registered public
accounting firm to render audit or non-audit services prior to the engagement of the accountants to render such services.
The
Board of Directors unanimously recommends a vote in favor of the approval of the ratification of the appointment of CohnReznick
LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accountants for the fiscal year ending May 31, 2017.
AUDIT
FEES
The
aggregate fees billed by CohnReznick LLP for professional services related to the audit of the Company’s consolidated financial
statements and the review of the consolidated condensed financial statements included in the Company’s Quarterly Reports
on Form 10-Q for the fiscal years ended May 31, 2016 and 2015 were $70,000 and $67,500, respectively.
AUDIT
RELATED FEES
There
were no fees billed by CohnReznick LLP for audit related services for the fiscal years ended May 31, 2016 or 2015.
TAX
FEES
There
were no fees billed by CohnReznick LLP for tax compliance, tax advice and tax planning during the fiscal years ended May 31, 2016
or 2015.
ALL
OTHER FEES
There
were no fees billed by CohnReznick LLP related to any other non-audit services for the fiscal years ended May 31, 2016 or 2015.
STOCKHOLDER
PROPOSALS
Any
proposal by a stockholder of the Company intended to be presented at the 2017 Annual Meeting of Stockholders must be received
by the Company at its principal executive office not later than July 7, 2017 for inclusion in the Company's proxy statement and
form of proxy relating to that meeting. Pursuant to the Company’s Bylaws, the deadline for submitting a proposal is the
date that is not less than 120 days prior to the anniversary of the date on which the Company released its proxy statement in
connection with the prior year’s annual meeting to its stockholders. The Company is releasing its proxy statement for the
2016 Annual Meeting to its stockholders on November 4, 2016. Any such proposal must also comply with the other requirements of
the proxy solicitation rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission.
FORM
10-K ANNUAL REPORT
UPON
WRITTEN REQUEST BY ANY STOCKHOLDER ENTITLED TO VOTE AT THE ANNUAL MEETING, THE COMPANY WILL FURNISH THAT PERSON, WITHOUT CHARGE,
WITH A COPY OF ITS ANNUAL REPORT ON FORM 10-K FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED MAY 31, 2016, WHICH IS FILED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE
COMMISSION, INCLUDING THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SCHEDULES THERETO. IN THE EVENT THAT EXHIBITS TO SUCH FORM 10-K ARE REQUESTED,
A FEE WILL BE CHARGED FOR REPRODUCTION OF SUCH EXHIBITS. If the person requesting the report was not a stockholder of record on
October 28, 2016, the request must contain a good faith representation that the person making the request was a beneficial owner
of the Company's stock at the close of business on such date. Requests should be addressed to Mr. John G. Sharkey, Secretary,
TSR, Inc., 400 Oser Avenue, Hauppauge, NY 11788.
HOUSEHOLDING
The
Company has adopted a procedure called “householding,” which has been approved by the SEC. Under this procedure, the
Company is delivering only one copy of the Annual Report and Proxy Statement to multiple stockholders who share the same mailing
address and have the same last name, unless the Company has received contrary instructions from an affected stockholder. This
procedure reduces the Company’s printing costs, mailing costs and fees. Stockholders who participate in householding will
continue to receive separate proxy cards.
The
Company will deliver promptly upon written or oral request a separate copy of the Annual Report and the Proxy Statement to any
stockholder at a shared address to which a single copy of either of those documents was delivered. To receive a separate copy
of the Annual Report or Proxy Statement, you may write to Mr. John G. Sharkey, Secretary, TSR, Inc., 400 Oser Avenue, Hauppauge,
NY 11788, or call (631) 231-0333.

Board of Directors does not know of any other matters to be brought before the Annual Meeting, except those set forth in the notice
thereof. If other business is properly presented for consideration at the Annual Meeting, it is intended that the proxies will
be voted by the persons named therein in accordance with their judgment on such matters.
The
cost of preparing this Proxy Statement and all other costs in connection with this solicitation of proxies for the Annual Meeting
of Stockholders are being borne by the Company. In addition to solicitation by mail, the Company's directors, officers, and regular
employees, without additional remuneration, may solicit proxies by telephone, e-mail, facsimile and personal interviews. Brokers,
custodians, and fiduciaries will be requested to forward proxy soliciting material to the beneficial owners of Common Stock held
in their names, and the Company will reimburse them for their out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with the distribution
of proxy materials.
Your
cooperation in giving this matter your immediate attention and in returning your proxies will be appreciated.
