West Seneca, New York--(Newsfile Corp. - May 16, 2024) - Worksport Ltd. (NASDAQ: WKSP), a key US-based manufacturer and innovator of hybrid and clean energy solutions for the light truck, overlanding, and global consumer goods sectors, today reported the financial results for the first quarter of its fiscal year (Q1 FY 2024) ended March 31, 2024.

Worksport reports a 1,506% revenue increase in Q1 2024 vs. Q1 2023, while cutting 4.8% in operational expenses over the same periods. Gross margins were largely based on private label sales and are expected to improve considerably in future quarters.

Worksport will provide forward-looking guidance on May 23, 2024. Worksport's sales in April 2024 have shown positive results, underscoring the Company's accelerating growth trajectory. Management is eager to share their revenue outlook through year-end 2024, which they believe will be a considerable jump from CY 2023.

Recently signaling Worksport's stock as undervalued, the Company expects robust growth and development as its US production continues to ramp up rapidly and as the launch of its highly anticipated clean energy solutions approach quickly. The Company is expanding and working on many grants, including a $2.8MM grant from the State of New York announced last week. Worksport is preparing itself to actively tap into the multi-billion-dollar clean-energy and automotive accessory markets.

Key Highlights for Q1 2024:

Explosive Growth:

Worksport Ltd. reported a staggering 1,506% increase in North American sales for Q1 2024 from Q1 2023, with revenues soaring from $31,925 in Q1 2023 to $512,637 in Q1 2024. US revenue alone experienced a remarkable 1,766% increase in Q1 2024 compared to Q1 2023.

Worksport CEO, Steven Rossi said, "We are proud to see such encouraging early growth and demand from our efforts. In under three years while facing a difficult landscape of COVID lockdowns, hyper-inflation, and supply-chain disruptions, we have launched our new factory, developed groundbreaking products, and have set the foundation for rapid growth. This early success is only with our inaugural product and is a tremendous signal of the potential size of our business to come. We've formed an amazing team with an innovative line of products to build a very healthy business in the years ahead. Next week we will give forward-looking guidance. 2024 is Worksport's year."

Matured Supply Chain:

In Q1 2024, Worksport has strategically invested $2.9MM in producing and acquiring inventory pertaining specifically to higher margin products; Holding $6.5MM in inventory, Worksport anticipates swift inventory turnover. This investment is expected to let the Company promptly capitalize on growing demand.

B2B Expansion:

In Q1 2024, Worksport focused on ramping up production and enhancing its product line. Full-scale US production began in January 2024, and significant progress has been made since then. Worksport is preparing to sell its products through leading distributors across the United States, setting up an extensive system during Q1. These efforts are expected to drive substantial growth in the second half of 2024.

B2C Sales Campaign:

With a fully integrated production process, Worksport officially launched its e-commerce sales at the tail-end of Q1, on March 18, 2024. The B2C campaign is expected to ramp up quickly, contributing significantly to future growth. The Company will provide an update on e-commerce sales projections on May 23, 2024.

Clean Energy Product Pipeline:

With upcoming launches for our first-to-market SOLIS Solar Tonneau Cover and highly anticipated COR Modular Portable Energy System, Worksport is positioning itself at the forefront of eco-friendly automotive accessories. The Company is also aligning with global shifts towards sustainable energy solutions and continues progress on its extreme-climate heat pump. Each new product represents a multi-billion-dollar market for Worksport.

North American Expansion:

To increase its presence in the US and Canada, Worksport has engaged in several strategic collaborations with several leading distributors and mass merchandisers, including an agreement with Dix Performance North to expand its distribution network across Canada. This aligns with the Company's goals to enhance product accessibility and visibility. The Company will continue efforts on this front.
