Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Worksport Ltd. reported strong Q1 2026 growth, with net sales rising 47.9% year-over-year to $3.31 million as it moved from launch readiness into broader commercialization. Gross profit increased 115.5% to $853,946, and gross margin improved to 26% from 18% a year earlier.

U.S. net sales represented about 99% of revenue, and hard tonneau covers generated roughly 99% of net sales, split between about $1.8 million B2C (1,700 covers) and $1.5 million B2B (2,300 covers. Inventory reached $11.6 million, with working capital of about $6.6 million and net property and equipment of $13.3 million, reflecting investment in product launches and its West Seneca manufacturing facility.

Management targets achieving operational cash-flow within 2026 and expects 2026 growth to be driven mainly by tonneau covers, expanded B2B/B2C channels, the new NEXUS cover, and early contributions from SOLIS and COR. Subsidiary Terravis Energy is advancing the AetherLux ZeroFrost heat pump, but the Company is not projecting AetherLux revenue in 2026.

Insights

Worksport shows rapid revenue and margin expansion but remains investment-heavy in 2026.

Worksport delivered Q1 2026 net sales of $3.31 million, up 47.9% year-over-year, while gross profit rose 115.5% to $853,946. Gross margin widened from 18% to 26%, indicating better pricing, mix, or cost control as tonneau covers scale.

Management highlights elevated operating cash use tied to funding $11.6 million of inventory and launch activities, with working capital around $6.6 million. They aim for operational cash-flow within 2026, so execution on converting inventory and improving channel-level margins will be crucial.

For 2026, growth is expected mainly from tonneau covers, NEXUS, and initial SOLIS/COR contributions, while Terravis Energy’s AetherLux platform is treated as upside with no revenue projected this year. Future filings and updates on certification milestones and distributor expansion will clarify how quickly this growth translates into sustained profitability.

gross margin financial
"Q1 net sales reached $3.3 million with gross margin of 26%"
Gross margin is the difference between how much money a company makes from selling its products and how much it costs to produce them, expressed as a percentage of sales. It shows how efficiently a company is turning sales into profit before other expenses like marketing or salaries. Higher gross margin means the company keeps more money from each sale, which is a good sign of financial health.
working capital financial
"approximately $6.6 million in working capital"
Working capital is the money a business has available to cover its daily expenses, like paying bills and buying supplies. It’s like the cash in your wallet that helps you handle everyday costs; having enough ensures the business can operate smoothly without running into money shortages.

forward-looking statements regulatory
"The information contained herein may contain “forward-looking statements.”"
Forward-looking statements are predictions or plans that companies share about what they expect to happen in the future, like estimating sales or profits. They matter because they help investors understand a company's outlook, but since they are based on guesses and assumptions, they can sometimes be wrong.
emerging growth company regulatory
"Emerging growth company Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure."
An emerging growth company is a recently public or smaller public firm that qualifies for temporary, lighter regulatory and disclosure rules to reduce the cost and effort of being public. For investors, it means the company may provide less historical financial detail and face fewer reporting requirements than larger firms, so it can grow more quickly but also carries higher uncertainty—like buying a promising early-stage product with fewer user reviews.

Exhibit 99.1

 

Worksport (NASDAQ: WKSP) Reports Q1 Revenue Up 48%, Gross Profit Up 116% (YOY)

 

Q1 net sales reached $3.3 million with gross margin of 26%; Company enters Q2 with SOLIS and COR shipping, COR certified, NEXUS launched, Tri-State distribution added, and operational cash-flow targeted within 2026.

 

West Seneca, New York, May 13, 2026 — Worksport Ltd. (NASDAQ: WKSP) (“Worksport” or the “Company”), a U.S.-based innovator and manufacturer of hybrid and clean energy solutions primarily for the light truck, overlanding, and global consumer goods markets, today announced financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2026, with net sales increasing 47.9% year-over-year to $3.3 million and gross profit increasing 115.5% year-over-year to $854,000 as the Company advanced from product launch readiness into broader commercialization.

 

Q1 2026 was an investment and launch-readiness quarter for Worksport. During the period, the Company expanded product availability, funded inventory for recently launched products, strengthened sales channels, and prepared its newest product platforms for commercialization. Management believes these actions position Worksport for stronger sales conversion in Q2 2026 and the second half of the year.

Why Q1 Matters: From Buildout to Conversion

 

Q1 operating cash use was elevated as Worksport funded inventory, supported product launches, reduced prior-period obligations, and invested in marketing campaigns tied to SOLIS, COR, NEXUS, and the broader brand. Management views this as a working-capital investment intended to support product availability and sales-channel activation for the remainder of 2026. As of March 31, 2026, Worksport had $11.6 million in inventory, approximately $6.6 million in working capital.

 

Management’s near-term priority is to convert inventory into revenue, improve channel-level gross margin, optimize marketing return on investment, and reduce operating cash consumption as launch-related spending normalizes.

 

2026 Outlook

 

The Company expects fiscal 2026 growth to be driven primarily by its tonneau cover business, expanded B2B and B2C sales channels, the newly launched NEXUS cover, and early contribution from SOLIS and COR. Worksport’s recent distribution partnership with Tri-State is expected to be the first of more distributors joining Worksport’s network as a result of Worksport’s growing consumer awareness.

 

The Company also plans to provide annual financial guidance early each calendar year rather than updating guidance quarterly, allowing management to focus on long-term execution, durable revenue growth, cash-flow discipline, and shareholder value creation.

 

Terravis Energy and AetherLux Update

 

Worksport’s clean energy subsidiary, Terravis Energy, continued advancing its AetherLux™ ZeroFrost heat pump platform during Q1 2026. Management has stated that a large government entity is monitoring upcoming laboratory performance results as part of an internal evaluation process, while certification work is progressing with AHRI, ENERGY STAR, and other North American certification milestones targeted within 2026.

 

The Company is not currently projecting AetherLux revenue in 2026. Management views AetherLux as a strategic upside platform separate from the core 2026 revenue drivers, which are expected to come from tonneau covers and early SOLIS/COR commercialization.
