Worksport Ltd. has secured a $250,000 direct investment priced at $1.20 per unit, representing a 100% premium to its recent trading price of $0.5983. The investment, consisting of one share of common stock and one warrant per unit, underscores investor confidence in the company's commercial progress and long-term growth potential. The warrants are exercisable at $1.50 per share. Additionally, the investor has expressed interest in evaluating up to $10 million in potential additional financing, subject to market conditions and definitive agreements.

The transaction was completed through a registered direct offering pursuant to the company's effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3. D. Boral Capital LLC acted as the exclusive placement agent. The company intends to file a Current Report on Form 8-K with the SEC detailing the terms and conditions of the offering and the warrants.

Recent Financial Performance

This capital raise follows a period of commercial momentum for Worksport. The company reported Q1 2026 net sales of $3.3 million, an increase of 47.9% year over year. Gross profit for the quarter was approximately $854,000, up 115.5% year over year, with gross margin improving to 26%.

Strategic Growth Drivers

Worksport's growth strategy is supported by several active business drivers, including expanded tonneau cover sales and the launch of the new Nexus tonneau cover. The company is also pursuing the early commercialization of its SOLIS and COR product lines. Furthermore, Worksport recently announced a distribution relationship with Tri-State Enterprises, which it projects will become a seven-figure annual account.

In addition to its core product strategy, the company's subsidiary, Terravis Energy, secured a newly issued U.S. patent for its ZeroFrost™ heat-pump technology. Management believes this patent strengthens the company's long-term intellectual property position.

Management Commentary

Steven Rossi, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Worksport, emphasized the significance of the premium pricing. "We believe this premium-priced investment sends an important message at a pivotal time for Worksport," said Rossi. He noted that the shares have been trading at levels that do not reflect the company's commercial progress or revenue trajectory. Rossi added that the investment represents a strong vote of confidence as the company focuses on executing toward operational cash flow positivity.

Worksport Ltd founder and CEO Steven Rossi has elected to receive 79,618 shares of the company's common stock instead of $50,000 in cash compensation. The decision, announced on Tuesday, signals confidence in the company's long-term strategy and aligns executive compensation with shareholder interests.

The shares were issued under a Stock Purchase Agreement dated June 5, 2026, between Rossi and the company. The price per share was set at $0.6280, matching the closing price of Worksport's common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market on that date.

This marks the second instance of Rossi opting for equity over cash. In April 2026, he elected to receive 88,214 shares of common stock instead of $75,000 in accrued cash compensation. Worksport stated that these decisions reflect Rossi's sustained confidence in the company's strategic direction.

Financial Performance and Growth

Worksport highlighted significant revenue growth in recent years. Annual revenue increased from approximately $1.5 million in 2023 to $8.5 million in 2024 and $16.1 million in 2025. The company attributes this growth to expanded gross margins, increased dealer penetration, and the commercialization of new products.

The company is also investing in infrastructure to support future growth. Management emphasized that the continued commercial rollout of its Nexus Tonneau Cover, launched in April 2026, along with broader commercialization initiatives, will drive long-term objectives.

Recent Quarterly Results

In preliminary fourth-quarter results announced in February, Worksport reported net sales rose 65% year over year to $4.84 million. Gross profit jumped 392% to $1.5 million, with gross margin expanding 2,100 basis points to 32%. The margin expansion was driven by a shift in production to the West Seneca, New York, facility and manufacturing improvements that offset aluminum cost pressures.

Full-year 2025 revenue rose 91% to $16.2 million from $8.5 million in 2024. However, this figure missed the analyst consensus estimate of $19.58 million. Worksport indicated it expects to update fiscal 2026 guidance, including revenue and cash-flow positivity targets.
