Exhibit 99.1

LIQUIDITY SERVICES, INC. ANNOUNCES FIRST QUARTER FISCAL YEAR 2014 FINANCIAL RESULTS

— First quarter revenue consistent at $121.9 — Gross Merchandise Volume (GMV) consistent at $234.4 - Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA) of $20.0 million down 17% — Adjusted EPS of $0.32 down 22%

WASHINGTON — February 7, 2014 - Liquidity Services, Inc. (NASDAQ: LQDT; www.liquidityservicesinc.com) today reported its financial results for its first quarter of fiscal year 2014 (Q1-14) ended December 31, 2013.  Liquidity Services, Inc. provides business and government clients and buying customers transparent, innovative and effective online marketplaces and integrated services for surplus assets.

Liquidity Services, Inc. (Liquidity Services or the Company) reported consolidated Q1-14 revenue of $121.9 million, consistent with the prior year’s comparable period.  Adjusted EBITDA, which excludes stock based compensation and acquisition costs including changes in acquisition earn out payment estimates, for Q1-14 was $20.0 million, a decrease of approximately 17% from the prior year’s comparable period.  Q1-14 GMV, the total sales volume of all merchandise sold through the Company’s marketplaces, was $234.4 million, consistent with the prior year’s comparable period.

Net income in Q1-14 was $7.1 million or $0.22 diluted earnings per share.  Adjusted net income, which excludes stock based compensation, acquisition costs including changes in acquisition earn out payment estimates and amortization of contract-related intangible assets associated with the Jacobs Trading acquisition — net of tax, in Q1-14 was $10.4 million or $0.32 adjusted diluted earnings per share based on 32.7 million fully diluted shares outstanding, a decrease of approximately 24% and 22%, respectively, from the prior year’s comparable period.

“Liquidity Services generated better than expected financial results in Q1-FY14 driven by strong topline performance in our retail supply chain and municipal government businesses. Our retail supply chain business saw sequential growth in GMV as we helped more OEM and retail clients create strategic value in the secondary market for consumer goods through our marketplace channels and service offering. These results were partially offset by a sharp decline in our DoD Surplus business due to changing property mix which has impacted margins,” said Bill Angrick, Chairman and CEO of Liquidity Services.  “During the quarter, we continued to expand our GovDeals municipal government business in both the U.S. and Canada driven by agencies’ desire for more transparency, convenience and value in the sale of surplus assets. We also continued to invest in extending our technology platform, buyer liquidity and marketplace data with existing and new clients to unlock new opportunities during the quarter as our clients seek greater strategic value from the reverse supply chain.  We believe our continued investment in innovation and strong client service positions us well to drive long term shareholder value.”

“As previously announced, we are pleased to continue to provide services to the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) following the recent award of a sole source follow-on contract that extends the performance period of our Surplus contract by a base term of 10 months with two one-month option periods, resulting in a February 2015 expiry assuming the exercise of all options.  The mix of property under the DoD Surplus contract has shifted to a higher volume of lower value, smaller size items, requiring us to rent more space, incur higher transportation and handling costs, and increase our staff size.  We continue to provide a high level of service to our DoD client and plan to participate in the RFP process which is scheduled to conclude in April based on the DoD’s current schedule,” said Mr. Angrick.

Business Outlook

While general economic conditions have improved, our overall outlook remains cautious due to the volatility in the macro environment.  The retail vertical of our business has seen significant changes in consumer spending habits in certain categories, such as electronics, which has been affected by increases in payroll taxes, continued high unemployment, and reduced innovation in the sector resulting in decreased spending.  Additionally, we plan to increase our investment in technology infrastructure and innovation for our proprietary e-commerce marketplaces to support further expansion and integration of our existing and recently acquired businesses.  In the longer term, we expect our business to continue to benefit from the following trends: (i) as consumers trade down and seek greater value, we anticipate stronger buyer demand for the surplus merchandise sold in our marketplaces, (ii) as corporations and public sector agencies focus on reducing costs, improving transparency, compliance and working capital flows by outsourcing reverse supply chain activities, we expect our seller base to increase, and (iii) as corporations and public sector agencies increasingly prefer service providers with a proven track record, innovative technology solutions and demonstrated financial strength, we expect our seller base to increase.

The following forward looking statements reflect trends and assumptions for the next quarter and FY 2014:

(i)stable commodity prices in our scrap business;

(ii)stable average sales prices realized in our capital assets marketplaces;

(iii)improved margins in our GoIndustry marketplace as we continue to integrate the acquisition and complete our restructuring plans;

(iv)continued product flows under the DoD Surplus contract under the existing terms;

(v)an effective income tax rate of 40%; and

(vi)improved operations and service levels in our retail goods marketplaces.

Our DoD Scrap Contract includes an incentive feature, which can increase the amount of profit sharing distribution we receive from 23% up to 25%.  Payments under this incentive feature are based on the amount of scrap we sell for the DoD to small businesses during the preceding 12 months as of June 30th of each year.  We are eligible to receive this incentive in each year of the term of the Scrap Contract and have assumed for purposes of providing guidance regarding our projected financial results for fiscal year 2014 that we will again receive this incentive payment.

GMV — We expect GMV for fiscal year 2014 to range from $1.0 billion to $1.075 billion, which is unchanged.  We expect GMV for Q2-14 to range from $220 million to $240 million.

Adjusted EBITDA — We expect Adjusted EBITDA for fiscal year 2014 to range from $100 million to $108 million, which is unchanged.  We expect Adjusted EBITDA for Q2-14 to range from $20.0 million to $23.0 million.

Adjusted Diluted EPS — We estimate Adjusted Earnings Per Diluted Share for fiscal year 2014 to range from $1.60 to $1.76, which is unchanged.  In Q2-14, we estimate Adjusted Earnings Per Diluted Share to be $0.33 to $0.37.  This guidance assumes that we have an average fully diluted number of shares outstanding for the year of 32.9 million, and that we will not repurchase shares with the approximately $31.0 million yet to be expended under the share repurchase program.

Our guidance adjusts EBITDA and Diluted EPS for (i) acquisition costs including transaction costs and changes in earn out estimates; (ii) amortization of contract related intangible assets of $33.3 million from our acquisition of Jacobs Trading; and (iii) for stock based compensation costs, which we estimate to be approximately $3.5 million to $4.0 million per quarter for fiscal year 2014.  These stock based compensation costs are consistent with fiscal year 2013.

The Company’s Board of Directors approved the repurchase of up to $50.0 million under the share repurchase program.

Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Measures

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA.  EBITDA is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure and is equal to net income plus interest expense and other (income) expense, net; provision for income taxes; amortization of contract intangibles; and depreciation and amortization. Our definition of Adjusted EBITDA differs from EBITDA because we further adjust EBITDA for stock based compensation expense, and acquisition costs including changes in earn out estimates.

Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Basic and Diluted Earnings Per Share. Adjusted net income is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure and is equal to net income plus tax effected stock compensation expense, amortization of contract-related intangible assets associated with the Jacobs Trading acquisition and acquisition costs including changes in earn out estimates. Adjusted basic and diluted earnings per share are determined using Adjusted Net Income.

Non-GAAP Measures

To supplement our consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP, we use certain non-GAAP measures of certain components of financial performance.  These non-GAAP measures include earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA), Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings Per Share.  These non-GAAP measures are provided to enhance investors’ overall understanding of our current financial performance and prospects for the future.  We use EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA: (a) as measurements of operating performance because they assist us in comparing our operating performance on a consistent basis as they do not reflect the impact of items not directly resulting from our core operations; (b) for planning purposes, including the preparation of our internal annual operating budget; (c) to allocate resources to enhance the financial performance of our business; (d) to evaluate the effectiveness of our operational strategies; and (e) to evaluate our capacity to fund capital expenditures and expand our business.

We believe these non-GAAP measures provide useful information to both management and investors by excluding certain expenses that may not be indicative of our core operating measures.  In addition, because we have historically reported certain non-GAAP measures to investors, we believe the inclusion of non-GAAP measures provides consistency in our financial reporting.  These measures should be considered in addition to financial information prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, but should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, GAAP results.  A reconciliation of all historical non-GAAP measures included in this press release, to the most directly comparable GAAP measures, may be found in the financial tables included in this press release.

Supplemental Operating Data

To supplement our consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP, we use certain supplemental operating data as a measure of certain components of operating performance. We review GMV because it provides a measure of the volume of goods being sold in our marketplaces and thus the activity of those marketplaces. GMV and our other supplemental operating data, including registered buyers, auction participants and completed transactions, also provide a means to evaluate the effectiveness of investments that we have made and continue to make in the areas of customer support, value-added services, product development, sales and marketing and operations. Therefore, we believe this supplemental operating data provides useful information to both management and investors.  In addition, because we have historically reported certain supplemental operating data to investors, we believe the inclusion of this supplemental operating data provides consistency in our financial reporting.  This data should be considered in addition to financial information prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, but should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, GAAP results.
