Company Outlines Strong Momentum in Margins, Revenue, and Business Growth Entering 2025

West Seneca, New York, March 27, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Worksport Ltd. (NASDAQ: WKSP) ("Worksport” or the "Company”), a U.S.-based manufacturer and innovator of hybrid and clean energy solutions for the light truck, overlanding, and global consumer goods sectors, today announced financial results and significant operational achievements for fiscal year 2024. Marking a transformational year with record revenue growth, expanded product lines, and provided an optimistic outlook for fiscal year 2025.

Highlights from Fiscal Year 2024:

  • Record-Breaking Revenue Growth: Worksport reported net sales of $8.48 million, a remarkable increase of 455% from $1.53 million in 2023, driven by robust direct-to-consumer online sales, expanding business-to-business deals, and successful U.S. manufacturing ramp-up.

  • Margin Expansion and Profitability Path: Strategic shifts toward higher-margin, Worksport-branded products significantly enhanced profitability metrics, particularly evident in the end of Q4 2024 with gross margins rising nearly 3x that of Q3. Worksport expects fiscal 2025 gross margins to align more closely with those achieved in December 2024, supporting a continued growth trajectory.

  • Quarterly Milestone: Q4 2024 net sales were $2.93 million, an approximately 250% year-over-year increase from $839,000 in Q4 2023. The strong holiday season demand across e-commerce and distribution networks pushed results above the Company's previous FY 2024 revenue guidance of $6-$8 million. 

Financial Position Strengthened:

  • Year-end cash and equivalents increased to $4.88 million, with an additional $6.7 million raised through a warrant inducement transaction in March 2025.

  • Inventory strategically increased to $5.19 million to meet anticipated 2025 demand, while strengthen resiliency against macroeconomic supply chain uncertainties. Working capital improved to $7.3 million, offering greater flexibility for growth.

Steven Rossi, Founder & CEO of Worksport, stated: "Our 2024 results show a remarkable transformation. We expanded U.S. manufacturing, accelerated top-line growth, and repositioned our product lineup for higher margins. As we enter 2025, we have multiple catalysts-from advanced tonneau covers like the AL4 and HD3 to our highly anticipated SOLIS and COR energy solutions. Our focus is to scale production efficiently, drive robust revenue expansion, and chart a clear path to profitability for the benefit of our shareholders.” 

2025 Outlook & Guidance

  • Projected Revenue: Worksport expects FY 2025 net sales in the range of $20 million to $34.5 million, driven by growing demand for its premium hard-folding covers, the upcoming SOLIS solar-integrated tonneau, and COR mobile battery system. 

  • Margin Expansion: With production scaling, a shift away from lower-margin private-label lines, and the launch of higher-value products, the Company anticipates gross margins reaching 25%-30% by late 2025. 

  • Path to Profitability: Management is focused on operational efficiency and cost discipline to target breakeven and potential cash-flow positivity by year-end 2025, contingent on achieving the upper range of its revenue and margin targets.

Additional Highlights Include:

  • B2C Sales Growth: Online sales skyrocketed from $21,599 in Q3 2023 to $1.59 million in Q3 2024, now making up 51% of total revenue.

  • Government Sales Traction: Worksport initiated sales to a U.S. government agency, positioning itself for future business development.

  • New Product Launches: The highly anticipated AL4 tonneau cover is set to debut in Q4 this year and is expected to become a revenue-driving force in 2025, while the SOLIS and COR products are in Alpha testing, with a full market launch slated for Q2/Q3 next year.
