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 and nine month periods ended September 30, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2024. 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, 2023 filed with the SEC on March 28, 2024.

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

As of September 30, 2024, the Company had $1,857,685 in cash and cash equivalents. The Company has generated only limited revenues and has relied primarily upon capital generated from public and private offerings of its securities. Since the Company’s acquisition of Worksport in fiscal year 2014, it has never generated a profit. As of September 30, 2024, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $60,176,150.

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 and nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company had net losses of$4,134,917 (2023 - $3,949,298) and $11,862,973 (2023 - $11,270,023). As of September 30, 2024, the Company had working capital of $5,880,926 (December 31, 2023 – $1,956,894) and had an accumulated deficit of $60,176,150 (December 31, 2023 - $48,313,177). The Company has not generated profit from operations since inception and to date has relied 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 equity and/or debt 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.

Despite the Company having completed its purchasing of large manufacturing machinery for current output needs, operational costs are expected to remain elevated and, thus, further decrease cash and cash equivalents. Concurrently, the Company intends to continue its ramp-up of manufacturing and increasing sales volumes in 2024 and beyond, 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 was completed for initial production output in 2023 and started to generate revenue in the third quarter of 2023, registering its highest quarterly sales total in the Company’s history in the third quarter of 2024.

The Company has successfully raised cash and 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 prospectus supplement covering the offering, issuance and sale of up to $13,000,000 of common stock that may be issued and sold under an At The Market Offering Agreement dated September 30, 2022 (“ATM Agreement”), with H.C. Wainwright & Co., LLC, as the sales agent (“HCW”). Pursuant to the ATM Agreement, HCW is entitled to a commission equal to 3.0% of the gross sales price of the shares of common stock sold. As of September 30, 2024, the Company has sold and issued 604,048 shares of common stock in consideration for net proceeds of $780,356 under the ATM Agreement .

On November 2, 2023, the Company consummated a registered direct offering pursuant to which the Company issued 1,925,000 shares of common stock and 1,575,000 pre-funded warrants to an institutional investor for a total net proceeds of $4,261,542. Concurrently with the registered direct offering, the Company issued the same institutional investor 7,000,000 warrants in a private sale. The warrants are exercisable for 7,000,000 shares of common stock for $1.34 per share six months after issuance and until five and a half years from the issuance date, subject to beneficial ownership limitations as described in the warrants. The Company registered the 7,000,000 shares of common stock underlying the warrants on a Form S-1 (333-276241) which was declared effective by the SEC on December 29, 2023.

On March 20, 2024, the Company consummated a registered direct offering pursuant to which the Company issued 2,372,240 shares of common stock and 1,477,892 pre-funded warrants to the same institutional investor as in the Company’s registered direct offering on November 2, 2023, for a total net proceeds of $2,629,083. Concurrently with the registered direct offering, the Company issued the institutional investor 7,700,264 warrants in a private sale. The warrants are exercisable for 7,700,264 shares of common stock for $0.74 per share six months after issuance until five and a half years from the issuance date, subject to beneficial ownership limitations as described in the warrants. The Company registered the 7,700,264 shares of common stock underlying the warrants on a Form S-1 (333-278461) which was declared effective by the SEC on April 8, 2024.

To date, the Company’s principal sources of liquidity consist of net proceeds from public and private securities offerings and cash exercises of outstanding warrants. Management is focused on transitioning towards revenue as its principal source of liquidity by growing existing product offerings as well as the Company’s customer base. The Company cannot give assurance that it can increase its cash balances or limit its cash consumption and thus maintain sufficient cash balances for planned operations or future business developments. Future business development and demands may lead to cash utilization at levels greater than recently experienced. The Company may need to raise additional capital in the future. However, the Company cannot provide assurances it will be able to raise additional capital on acceptable terms, or at all.

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. Still, certain factors 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.
