CEO Commentary

"The decision to increase my personal stake in Worksport by nearly 1% of the total outstanding stock reflects my unwavering belief in our team's execution and the intrinsic value of our assets," said Steven Rossi.

"Over the past two years, we have transformed the business - scaling revenue, expanding margins, building a national dealer network, and bringing multiple products to market. While the share price has recently experienced pressure, I believe it does not fully reflect the underlying progress we have made or the momentum we are building. Worksport management maintains its position that the company's market valuation is undervalued.

He continued: "We have invested meaningfully to establish the foundation of this company. With that foundation now largely in place, our focus is on execution - driving revenue growth, expanding distribution, and progressing toward operational cash-flow positivity. I remain highly confident in our strategy and the long-term opportunity ahead."

Upcoming Catalysts and Innovation Pipeline

Worksport enters fiscal 2026 with multiple growth drivers in motion:

• Terravis Energy (AetherLux): Innovative cold-climate heat pump with industry-leading performance, representing a longer-term clean energy opportunity

  • Commercial certification is expected within 2026.

Management has emphasized that fiscal 2026 represents a transition from investment and buildout to monetization and operating leverage, supported by improving margins and a scalable manufacturing base.

Long-Term Focus, Near-Term Milestones

Worksport continues to target:

• $35-$42 million in revenue for fiscal 2026

• ~35% gross margin profile

• Operational cash-flow positivity within the year

The CEO's acquisition is aligned with these objectives and reflects a continued focus on disciplined execution, capital efficiency, and long-term shareholder value creation.
