Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

1. Basis of Presentation and Business Condition

a) Interim Financial Information

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments and reclassifications considered necessary in order to make the financial statements not misleading and for a fair and comparable presentation have been included and are of a normal recurring nature. Operating results for the three months period ended March 31, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2023. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 filed with the SEC on March 31, 2023.

Worksport Ltd. (together with its subsidiaries, the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on April 2, 2003 under the name Franchise Holdings International, Inc. (“FNHI”). In May 2020, FNHI changed its name to Worksport Ltd. During the year ended December 31, 2014, the Company completed a reverse acquisition transaction (the “Reverse Acquisition”) with TruXmart Ltd. (“TruXmart”). On May 2, 2018, Truxmart legally changed its name to Worksport Ltd. (“Worksport”). Worksport designs and distributes truck tonneau covers in Canada and the United States.

On May 21, 2021, the Board of Directors authorized the submission of a Certificate of Change/Amendment to the Nevada Secretary of State in which the Company sought to affect a reverse split of its common stock at the rate of 1-for-20 for the purpose of increasing the per share price for the Company’s stock in an effort to meet the minimum listing requirements of the NASDAQ. The Certificate of Change was submitted to the Nevada Secretary of State on May 21, 2021, and the FINRA corporate action was announced on August 3, 2021. FINRA declared the 1-for-20 reverse stock split effective on August 4, 2021. These condensed consolidated financial statements, including prior period comparative share amounts, have been retrospectively restated to reflect this reverse split.

Terravis Energy, Inc. (“Terravis”) was incorporated in the State of Colorado on May 5, 2021. On August 20, 2021, the Company was issued 100 common shares at par value of $0.0001 per share for a controlling interest in Terravis. During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company was issued an additional 9,990,900 common shares of Terravis at par value of $0.0001 per share.

On January 20, 2022, the board of directors of Terravis and the board of directors of the Company, as the sole stockholder of Terravis, adopted the Terravis Energy, Inc. 2022 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Terravis 2022 Plan”). Under the Terravis 2022 Plan, Terravis’ board of directors or a committee designated by the board of directors may grant incentive stock options, nonqualified stock options, shares of restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance shares, performance units and stock appreciation rights to eligible participants consisting of employees of Terravis, member of Terravis’ board of directors, advisors and consultants to Terravis. The Terravis board of directors authorized and reserved 1,500,000 shares of Terravis common stock under the Terravis 2022 Plan, subject to adjustment for any stock splits of Terravis’ common stock or reorganization, recapitalization, or acquisition of Terravis.

On April 6, 2022, Lorenzo Rossi and Steven Rossi, both of whom are members of Terravis’ board of directors, were granted non-qualified stock options under the Terravis 2022 Plan exercisable for 750,000 and 250,000 shares of Terravis’ common stock, respectively, with exercise prices of $0.01 per share exercisable from the date of grant until the tenth anniversary of the date of grant.

On April 12, 2022, Steven Rossi, William Caragol, and Ned L. Siegel, all of whom are members of Terravis’ board of directors, were granted non-qualified stock options under the Terravis 2022 Plan exercisable for 250,000, 50,000, and 50,000 shares of Terravis’ common stock, respectively, with exercise prices of $0.01 per share exercisable from the date of grant until the tenth anniversary of the date of grant.

On November 4, 2022, Terravis filed an amendment to its articles of incorporation with the Colorado Secretary of State, pursuant to which the Terravis board of directors attached a certificate of designation designating 1,000 shares of its authorized preferred stock as Series A Preferred Stock with a par value $0.0001 per share. According to the certificate of designation, holders of the Series A Preferred Stock do not have any dividend, conversion or liquidation rights. Unless otherwise prohibited by law or the Series A Preferred Stock certificate of designation, the Series A Preferred Stock shall vote together with the outstanding shares of common stock of Terravis as one class on any matter put forth before the common stockholders. For so long the Series A Preferred Stock is outstanding, the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to 51% of the total votes on all matters regardless of the actual number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock then outstanding, and the holders of the common stock and any other shares of capital stock of Terravis entitled shall be entitled to their proportional share of the remaining 49% of the total votes based on their respective voting power. On November 4, 2022, the Company issued 1,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock to Steven Rossi, the Chief Executive Officer and President of the Company.

During the year ended December 31, 2022, Worksport New York Operations Corporation and Worksport USA Operations Corporation were incorporated in the state of New York and Colorado, respectively.

b) Statement of Compliance

The Company’s financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) as issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”).

c) Basis of Measurement

The Company’s financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis.

d) Consolidation

The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements consolidate the accounts of the Company. All intercompany transactions, balances and unrealized gains or losses from intercompany transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.

e) Functional and Reporting Currency

These condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in United States dollars (USD or US$). The functional currency of the Company and its subsidiaries are United States dollar. For purposes of preparing these condensed consolidated financial statements, transactions denominated in Canadian dollars (CAD or C$) were converted to United States dollars at the spot rate. Transaction gains and losses resulting from fluctuations in currency exchange rates on transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are recognized as incurred in the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of operations.

f) Use of Estimates

The preparation of condensed unaudited financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed interim financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

2. Going Concern

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company had net loss of $3,523,270 (2022- $2,817,609). As at March 31, 2023, the Company has working capital of $12,272,327 (December 31, 2022 - $15,870,377) and had an accumulated deficit of $36,907,489 (December 31, 2022 - $33,384,219). The Company has never generated profit from operations and relies on debt and equity financing for continued operations. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the ability to generate cash flows from operations and obtain financing. The Company intends to continue funding operations through equity and debt financing arrangements, which may be insufficient to fund its capital expenditures, working capital and other cash requirements in the long term. There can be no assurance that the steps management is taking will be successful.

The Company has historically operated at a loss, although that may change as sales volumes increase. As of March 31, 2023, the Company had working capital of $12,272,327 (December 31, 2022 – $15,870,377) and an accumulated deficit of $36,907,489 (December 31, 2022 - $33,384,219). As of March 31, 2023, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $10,489,214 (December 31, 2022 - $14,620,757). Despite the company almost having completed its purchasing of large manufacturing machinery, operational costs are expected to remain elevated and, thus, decrease cash and cash equivalents. Concurrently, the Company intends to begin manufacturing and increasing sales volumes within 2023, which should mitigate the effects of operational costs on cash and cash equivalents; this view is supported by the fact that the manufacturing facility of the Company is near completion and is expected to start generating more substantial revenue in the second quarter of 2023, barring unforeseeable delays.

The Company has successfully raised cash, and it is positioned to do so again if deemed necessary or strategically advantageous. During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company, through its Reg-A public offering, private placement offering, underwritten public offering, and exercises of warrants, raised an aggregate of approximately $32,500,000. On September 30, 2022, the Company filed a shelf registration statement on Form S-3, which was declared effective by the SEC on October 13, 2022 allowing the Company to issue up to $30,000,000 of common stock and up to $13,000,000 of common stock that may be issued and sold under an At The Market Offering Agreement dated as of September 30, 2022.

The Company has evaluated whether there are conditions and events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date the financial statements are issued. Based on its current operating plans, the Company believes it has a sufficient level of funding for anticipated operations, capital expenditures and debt repayments for a period of at least 12 months from the issuance date of this Quarterly Report. Still, these factors, among others, indicate the existence of a material uncertainty that cast substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. These adjustments could be material.

3. Significant Accounting Policies

The accounting polices used in the preparation of these condensed consolidated interim financial statements are consistent with those of the Company’s audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Under the Company’s 2015 Equity Incentive Plan, the number of common shares reserved for issuance under the option plan shall not exceed 10% of the issued and outstanding common shares of the Company, have a maximum term of 10 years, and vest at the discretion of the Board of Directors.

All equity-settled, share-based payments are ultimately recognized as an expense in the statement of operations with a corresponding credit to “Additional Paid in Capital.” If vesting periods or other non-market vesting conditions apply, the expense is allocated over the vesting period, based on the best available estimate of the number of share options expected to vest. Estimates are subsequently revised if there is any indication that the number of share options expected to vest differs from previous estimates. Any cumulative adjustment prior to vesting is recognized in the current period.

19. COVID-19

The outbreak of the coronavirus, specifically identified as “COVID-19,” has resulted in governments worldwide enacting emergency measures to combat the spread of the virus. These measures, which include the implementation of travel bans, self-imposed quarantine periods and social distancing, have caused material disruption to businesses globally resulting in an economic slowdown. Global equity markets have experienced significant volatility and weakness. Governments and central banks have reacted with significant monetary and fiscal interventions designed to stabilize economic conditions. The duration and impact of the COVID-19 outbreak are unknown at this time, as is the efficacy of the government and central bank interventions.

Additionally, while the potential economic impact and duration of such impact brought by the COVID-19 pandemic are difficult to assess or predict, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the global financial markets may reduce our ability to access capital, which could negatively impact our short-term and long-term liquidity. The ultimate impact of the COVID-19 pandemic is highly uncertain and subject to change. The Company does not yet know the full extent of potential delays or impacts on its business, financing or the global economy as a whole. However, these effects could have a material impact on the Company’s liquidity, capital resources, operations and business and those of the third parties on which the Company relies. The management and board of the Company are constantly monitoring this situation to minimize potential losses.

20. Subsequent Events

The Company has evaluated subsequent events through May 15, 2023. The following events occurred after the quarter-ended March 31, 2023:

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Three Months Ended March 31, 2023 compared to the Three Months Ended March 31, 2022

Revenue

For the three months ended March 31, 2023, revenues from the entire line of our products were $31,925, as compared to $47,784 for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The year-over-year sales decreased by approximately 33%. For the three months ended March 31, 2023, revenue generated in Canada was $5,522, as compared to $0 for the same period in 2022. For the three months ended March 31, 2023, revenue generated in the United States was $26,403, compared to $47,784 for the same period in 2022, a decrease of 45%.

Revenue decreased for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to the same period the prior year due to our focus on establishing new business-to-consumer and business-to-business sales channels while strengthening the support of those channels to increase customer satisfaction and enable high product turnover once domestic production begins. For business-to-consumer channels, we established our own e-commerce platform as well as listed our products on online marketplaces including eBay, Amazon, and Walmart. For business-to-business channels, we updated our terms and conditions, created improved product brochures for distributors, strategically created a Minimum Advertised Price policy to prevent our business-to-consumer channels from interfering with our business-to-business channels, established sales representation across the continental U.S. by forging relationships with various sales agencies, and more. We intend to begin domestic manufacturing in the second quarter of fiscal year 2023 and gradually increase output capacity through refined production processes and increased personnel.

Sales from online retailers of our products decreased from $47,784 during the three months ended March 31, 2022 to $26,434 during the three months ended March 31, 2023, a decrease of 45%. Online retailers accounted for 83% of total revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to 100% for the three months ended March 31, 2022. Distributor sales increased for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared with the three months ended March 31, 2022 with sales of $5,491 and $0, respectively. We expect to continue to grow our fields of business as we develop unique products with enhanced utility to offer to other prospective clients in the US and Canadian markets.

We currently support a network of dealers, distributors, and independent resellers, and we will continue to expand our business and online sales channels in 2023.

Cost of Sales

Cost of sales decreased by 48%, from $37,977 for the three months ended March 31, 2022 to $19,757 for the three months ended March 31, 2023. Our cost of sales, as a percentage of sales, was approximately 62% and 79% for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The decrease in the cost of sales as a percentage of sales was primarily due to increased efficiency associated with improved supply chain logistics for the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to the same prior period.

We provide our distributors and online retailers an “all-in” wholesale price. This includes any import duty charges, taxes, and shipping charges. Discounts are applied if the distributor or retailer chooses to use their own shipping process. Certain exceptions apply on rare occasions where product is shipped outside the contiguous United Sates or from the United States to Canada. Volume discounts are offered to certain high-volume customers, and we also offer a “dock price” or “pickup program” in which clients are able to pick up product directly from our stocking warehouse.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses increased for the three months ended March 31, 2023 by $734,529, from $2,807,587 for the three months ended March 31, 2022 to $3,542,116 for the three months ended March 31, 2023, due to the following factors.

Other Income and Expenses

We reported other income for the three months ended March 31, 2023 of $6,678 compared to a loss of $19,829 in the prior period. The change can be attributed to our gain on loan forgiveness from the Government of Canada as well as rental and interest income, which are partially offset by an increase in interest expense.

Net Loss

Net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was $3,523,270 compared to a net loss of $2,817,609 for the three months ended March 31, 2022 – an increase of 25%. The increase in the net loss can be attributed to the increase in various operating expenses as we focus on expanding our operations, research and development, manufacturing, and supply chain.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of March 31, 2023, we had $10,489,214 in cash and cash equivalents. We have generated only limited revenues and have relied primarily upon capital generated from public and private offerings of our securities. Since the Company’s acquisition of Worksport in fiscal year 2014, it has never generated a profit. As of March 31, 2023, we had an accumulated deficit of $36,907,489.

To date, our principal sources of liquidity consists of net proceeds from public and private securities offerings and cash exercises of outstanding warrants. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, we did not receive any proceeds from public offerings, private placement offering, nor exercises of warrants. Management is focused on transitioning towards revenue as our principal source of liquidity by growing our existing product offerings, as well as our customer base, to increase our revenues. We cannot give assurance that we can increase our cash balances or limit our cash consumption and thus maintain sufficient cash balances for our planned operations or future business developments. Future business development and demands may lead to cash utilization at levels greater than recently experienced. We may need to raise additional capital in the future. However, we cannot assure we will be able to raise additional capital on acceptable terms, or at all. Subject to the foregoing, we believe our current cash balances coupled with anticipated cash flow from operating activities will be sufficient to meet our working capital requirements for at least one year from the date of issuance of the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.

Cash Flow Activities

Cash decreased from $14,620,757 at December 31, 2022 to $10,489,214 at March 31, 2023 – a decrease of $4,131,543 or 28%. The decrease was primarily due to the acquiring of assets for domestic production, such as industrial manufacturing equipment, as well as increasing spending for inventory in anticipation of launching our e-commerce platform, research and development, and overhead.

As of March 31, 2023, we had current assets of $14,705,146 (December 31, 2022 - $18,332,107) and current liabilities of $2,432,819 (December 31, 2022 – $2,461,730). As of March 31, 2023, we had working capital of $12,272,327 (December 31, 2022 – $15,870,377) and an accumulated deficit of $36,907,489 (December 31, 2022 - $33,384,219).

Operating Activities

Net cash used by operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was $2,934,410, compared to $2,130,184 in the prior period, primarily driven by a larger net loss during the three months ended March 31, 2023 and partially offset by the issuance of shares, options, and warrants for services.

Accounts receivable increased at March 31, 2023 by $38,013 and decreased by $6,733 in the prior period. The increase in accounts receivable was due to higher sales to distributors near the end of the period in 2023 compared to 2022.

Inventory increased at March 31, 2023 by $257,423 and at March 31, 2022 by $290,041 as a result of our stockpiling inventory in anticipation of the launch of our e-commerce platform. Prepaid expenses increased by $742,590 at March 31, 2023 and by $430,917 at March 31, 2022 due to deposits made by us for the purchase of inventory and professional services.

Accounts payable and accrued liabilities decreased at March 31, 2023 by $6,799 and increased by $105,626 in the prior period.

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was $1,153,229 compared to $614,046 in the prior period. The increase in investing activities was primarily due to the purchase of manufacturing property and equipment and Guaranteed Investment Certificate (“GIC”).

Financing Activities

Net cash used by financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was $43,904 compared to $1,863 in the prior period.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

None.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our discussion and analysis of results of operations and financial condition are based upon our condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We evaluate our estimates on an ongoing basis, including those related to provisions for uncollectible accounts receivable, inventories, valuation of intangible assets and contingencies and litigation. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

The accounting policies that we follow are set forth in Note 2 to our financial statements as included in the Form 10-K filed on March 31, 2023. These accounting policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the financial statements.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Not Applicable.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)). Based upon that evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of the end of the quarter covered in this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the required time and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal controls will prevent all error or fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Due to the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. To address the material weaknesses, we performed additional analysis and other post-closing procedures in an effort to ensure our consolidated financial statements included in this quarterly report have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Accordingly, management believes that the financial statements included in this report fairly present in all material respects our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
