system.
We have engaged H.C. Wainwright &
Co., LLC (the “Placement Agent”), as our exclusive placement agent in connection with this offering. The Placement
Agent has no obligation to buy any of the securities from us or to arrange for the purchase or sale of any specific number or
dollar amount of securities. We have agreed to pay the Placement Agent the fees set forth in the table below. We will also issue

Agent, or its designees, as part of the compensation payable to the Placement Agent. See “Plan of Distribution”
beginning on page S-25 of this prospectus supplement for more information regarding these arrangements.
Our common stock is listed on the Nasdaq under
the symbol “TBLT.” There is no established public trading market for the Preferred Stock being offered in this offering,
and we do not expect a market to develop. In addition, we do not intend to apply for listing the Preferred Stock on Nasdaq or any
national securities exchange or other trading market. Without an active market, the liquidity of the Preferred Stock will be limited.
The last reported sale price of our common
stock on February 14, 2022 was $0.2501 per share.

ABOUT THIS PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT
This
prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus form part of a registration statement on Form S-3 that we filed
with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, utilizing a “shelf” registration process. This document contains
two parts. The first part consists of this prospectus supplement, which provides you with specific information about this offering.
The second part, the accompanying prospectus, provides more general information, some of which may not apply to this offering.
Generally, when we refer only to the “prospectus supplement,” we are referring to both parts combined. This prospectus
supplement may add, update or change information contained in the accompanying prospectus. You should read both this prospectus
supplement and the accompanying prospectus, together with the documents incorporated by reference and the additional information
described under the heading “Where You Can Find More Information” in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying
prospectus before making an investment decision.
To the extent there is a conflict between the
information contained in this prospectus supplement, on the one hand, and the information contained in the accompanying prospectus,
on the other hand, the information contained in this prospectus supplement shall control. If any statement in this prospectus supplement
conflicts with any statement in a document that has been incorporated herein by reference, then you should consider only the statement
in the more recent document. You should assume that the information contained in this prospectus supplement, the accompanying prospectus
and the documents incorporated by reference is accurate only as of their respective dates.
We have not authorized, and the Placement Agent
has not authorized, any person to provide you with any information or to make any representation other than as contained in this
prospectus supplement or in the accompanying prospectus and the information incorporated by reference herein and therein. We do
not take any responsibility for, and can provide no assurance as to the reliability of, any information that others may provide
you. The information appearing or incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus is accurate
only as of the date of this prospectus supplement or the date of the document in which incorporated information appears unless
otherwise noted in such documents. Our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects may have changed since
those dates.
The distribution of this prospectus supplement
and the accompanying prospectus and the offering of the Securities in certain jurisdictions may be restricted by law. We are not
making an offer of the Securities in any jurisdiction where the offer is not permitted. Persons who come into possession of this
prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus should inform themselves about and observe any such restrictions. This prospectus
supplement and the accompanying prospectus do not constitute, and may not be used in connection with, an offer or solicitation
by anyone in any jurisdiction in which such offer or solicitation is not authorized or in which the person making such offer or
solicitation is not qualified to do so or to any person to whom it is unlawful to make such offer or solicitation.
Solely for convenience, tradenames referred
to in this prospectus supplement, the accompanying prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference appear without the ®
symbol, but those references are not intended to indicate, in any way, that we will not assert, to the fullest extent under applicable
law, our rights or that the applicable owner will not assert its rights, to these tradenames.
SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING
STATEMENTS
This prospectus supplement and the base prospectus
and the documents incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement include forward-looking statements within the meaning
of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)
that relate to future events or our future financial performance and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors
that may cause our actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to differ materially from any future results,
levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. Words such as, but not
limited to, “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “intend,”
“may,” “plan,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “targets,”
“likely,” “will,” “would,” “could,” “should,” “continue,”
and similar expressions or phrases, or the negative of those expressions or phrases, are intended to identify forward-looking statements,
although not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words. Although we believe that we have a reasonable basis
for each forward-looking statement contained in this prospectus supplement and incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement,
we caution you that these statements are based on our projections of the future that are subject to known and unknown risks and
uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, level of activity, performance or achievements expressed or
implied by these forward-looking statements, to differ. The sections in our periodic reports, including our Annual Report on Form
10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020 and our Quarterly Report for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2021, entitled
“Business,” “Risk Factors,” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations,” as well as other sections in this prospectus supplement and the documents or reports
incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement, discuss some of the factors that could contribute to these differences.
These forward-looking statements include, among other things, statements about:
|
•
|
market acceptance of our existing and new products;
|
|
•
|
delays in bringing products to key markets;
|
|
•
|
an inability to secure regulatory approvals for the ability to sell our products in certain markets;
|
|
•
|
intense competition in the industry from much larger, multinational companies;
|
|
•
|
product liability claims;
|
|
•
|
our limited manufacturing capabilities and reliance on subcontractors for assistance;
|
|
•
|
our efforts to successfully obtain and maintain intellectual property protection covering our products,
which may not be successful;
|
|
•
|
our reliance on single suppliers for certain product components;
|
|
•
|
the fact that we will need to raise additional capital to meet our business requirements in the
future and that such capital raising may be costly, dilutive or difficult to obtain;
|
|
•
|
the fact that we conduct business in multiple foreign jurisdictions, exposing us to foreign currency
exchange rate fluctuations, logistical and communications challenges, burdens and costs of compliance with foreign laws and political
and economic instability in each jurisdiction; and
|
|
•
|
market and other conditions.
|
We may not actually achieve the plans, intentions
or expectations disclosed in our forward-looking statements, and you should not place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements.
Actual results or events could differ materially from the plans, intentions and expectations disclosed in the forward-looking statements
we make. We have included important cautionary statements in this prospectus supplement and the base prospectus and in the documents
incorporated by reference herein, particularly in the “Risk Factors” section, that we believe could cause actual
results or events to differ materially from the forward-looking statements that we make. For a summary of such factors, please
refer to the section entitled “Risk Factors” in this prospectus supplement and the base prospectus, as updated
and supplemented by the discussion of risks and uncertainties under “Risk Factors” contained in any supplements
to this prospectus supplement and the base prospectus and in our most recent annual report on Form 10-K, as revised or supplemented
by our subsequent quarterly reports on Form 10-Q or our current reports on Form 8-K, as well as any amendments thereto, as filed
with the SEC and which are incorporated herein by reference. The information contained in this document is believed to be current
as of the date of this document. We do not intend to update any of the forward-looking statements after the date of this document
to conform these statements to actual results or to changes in our expectations, except as required by law.
In light of these assumptions, risks and uncertainties,
the results and events discussed in the forward-looking statements contained in this prospectus supplement and the base prospectus
or in any document incorporated herein by reference might not occur. Investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on the
forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this prospectus supplement or the date of the document incorporated
by reference in this prospectus supplement. We are not under any obligation, and we expressly disclaim any obligation, to update
or alter any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. All subsequent forward-looking
statements attributable to us or to any person acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary
statements contained or referred to in this section.
PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT SUMMARY
This summary highlights information contained
in other parts of this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus and in the documents we incorporate by reference.
Because it is only a summary, it does not contain all of the information that you should consider before investing in our securities
and it is qualified in its entirety by, and should be read in conjunction with, the more detailed information
appearing elsewhere in this prospectus supplement, the accompanying prospectus, any applicable free writing prospectus and the
documents incorporated by reference herein and therein. You should read all such documents carefully, especially the risk factors
and our consolidated financial statements and the related notes included or incorporated by reference herein or therein, before
deciding to buy our securities.
Overview
ToughBuilt Industries, Inc. (“ToughBuilt,”
the “Company,” “we,” “us” and “our” and similar expressions) is an advanced product
design, manufacturer and distributor with emphasis on innovative products. Currently focused on tools and other accessories for
the professional and do-it-yourself construction industries, we market and distribute various home improvement and construction
product lines for both the do-it-yourself and professional markets under the TOUGHBUILT brand name, within the global multibillion
dollar per year tool market industry. All of our products are designed by our in-house design team. Since launching product sales
in 2013, we have experienced significant annual sales growth. Our current product line includes three major categories, with several
additional categories in various stages of development, consisting of Soft Goods & Kneepads and Sawhorses & Work Products.
Our mission is to provide products to the building and home improvement communities that are innovative, of superior quality derived
in part from enlightened creativity for our end users while enhancing performance, improving well-being and building high brand
loyalty.
Since our initial launch of product sales several
years ago, we have experienced annual sales growth from approximately $1,000,000 in 2013 to approximately $39,000,000 in 2020.
Competition
The tool equipment and accessories industry
is highly competitive on a worldwide basis. We compete with a significant number of other tool equipment and accessories manufacturers
and suppliers to the construction, home improvement and do-it-yourself industry, many of which have the following:
|
•
|
significantly greater financial resources than we have;
|
|
•
|
more comprehensive product lines;
|
|
•
|
longer-standing relationships with suppliers, manufacturers, and retailers;
|
|
•
|
broader distribution capabilities;
|
|
•
|
stronger brand recognition and loyalty; and
|
|
•
|
the ability to invest substantially more in product advertising and sales.
|
Our competitors’ greater capabilities
in the above areas enable them to better differentiate their products from ours, gain stronger brand loyalty, withstand periodic
downturns in the construction and home improvement equipment and product industries, compete effectively on the basis of price
and production, and more quickly develop new products. These competitors include DeWalt, Caterpillar, and Samsung Active.
The markets for our mobile products and services
are also highly competitive and we are confronted by aggressive competition in all areas of its business. These markets are characterized
by frequent product introductions and rapid technological advances that have substantially increased the capabilities and use of
mobile communication and media devices, personal computers and other digital electronic devices. Our competitors who sell mobile
devices and personal computers based on other operating systems have aggressively cut prices and lowered their product margins
to gain or maintain market share. Our financial condition and operating results can be adversely affected by these and other industry-wide
downward pressures on gross margins. Principal competitive factors important to us include price, product features, relative price/performance,
product quality and reliability, design innovation, a strong third-party software and peripherals ecosystem, marketing and distribution
capability, service and support, and corporate reputation.
We are focused on expanding its market opportunities
related to mobile communication and media devices. These industries are highly competitive and include several large, well-funded
and experienced participants. We expect competition in these industries to intensify significantly as competitors attempt to imitate
some of the features of the Company’s products and applications within their own products or, alternatively, collaborate
with each other to offer solutions that are more competitive than those they currently offer. These industries are characterized
by aggressive pricing practices, frequent product introductions, evolving design approaches and technologies, rapid adoption of
technological and product advancements by competitors, and price sensitivity on the part of consumers and businesses. Competitors
include Apple, Samsung, and Qualcomm, among others.
Risk and Uncertainty Concerning COVID-19
In March 2020, the World Health Organization
declared the outbreak of a novel coronavirus (COVID-19) as a pandemic which continues to spread throughout the United States and
the world. We are currently monitoring the outbreak of COVID-19 and the related business and travel restrictions and changes to
behavior intended to reduce its spread. All of our Chinese facilities were temporarily closed for a period of time. Most of these
facilities have been reopened. Depending on the progression of the outbreak, our ability to obtain necessary supplies and ship
finished products to customers may be partly or completely disrupted globally. Also, our ability to maintain appropriate labor
levels could be disrupted. If the coronavirus continues to progress, it could have a material negative impact on our results of
operations and cash flow, in addition to the impact on its employees. We have concluded that while it is reasonably possible that
the virus could have a negative impact on the results of operations, the specific impact is not readily determinable as of the
date of these financial statements. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome
of this uncertainty.
Corporate Information
We were incorporated in the State of Nevada
on April 9, 2012, as Phalanx Inc. We changed our name to ToughBuilt Industries, Inc. on December 29, 2015.
Our principal executive offices are located
at 25371 Commercentre Drive, Suite 200, Lake Forest, CA 92630. Our telephone number is (949) 528-3100 and our website address is
www.toughbuilt.com. References in this prospectus supplement to our website address does not constitute incorporation by
reference of the information contained on the website.
IMPLICATIONS OF BEING AN EMERGING GROWTH
COMPANY
We are an “emerging growth company,”
as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”). We will remain an emerging growth company
until the earlier of (i) the last day of the fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of the first sale of our common stock
pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act; (ii) the last day of the fiscal year in which we have
total annual gross revenues of $1.07 billion or more; (iii) the date on which we have issued more than $1.07 billion in nonconvertible
debt during the previous three years; or (iv) the date on which we are deemed to be a large accelerated filer under applicable
SEC rules. We expect that we will remain an emerging growth company for the foreseeable future, but cannot retain our emerging
growth company status indefinitely. For so long as we remain an emerging growth company, we are permitted and intend to rely on
exemptions from specified disclosure requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies.
These exemptions include:
|
•
|
being permitted to provide only two years of audited financial statements, in addition to any required
unaudited interim financial statements, with correspondingly reduced “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations” disclosure;
|
|
•
|
not being required to comply with the requirement of auditor attestation of our internal controls
over financial reporting;
|
|
•
|
not being required to comply with any requirement that may be adopted by the Public Company Accounting
Oversight Board regarding mandatory audit firm rotation or a supplement to the auditor’s report providing additional information
about the audit and the financial statements;
|
|
•
|
reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation; and
|
|
•
|
not being required to hold a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder
approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.
|
For as long as we continue to be an emerging
growth company, we expect that we will take advantage of the reduced disclosure obligations available to us as a result of that
classification. Accordingly, the information contained herein may be different than the information you receive from other public
companies in which you hold stock.
An emerging growth company can take advantage
of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting
standards. This allows an emerging growth company to delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would
otherwise apply to private companies. We have irrevocably elected to avail ourselves of this extended transition period and, as
a result, we will not be required to adopt new or revised accounting standards on the dates on which adoption of such standards
is required for other public reporting companies.
We are also a “smaller reporting company,”
meaning that the market value of our stock held by non-affiliates is less than $700 million as of our most recently completed second
fiscal quarter and our annual revenue was less than $100 million during our most recently completed fiscal year. We may continue
to be a smaller reporting company if either (i) the market value of our stock held by non-affiliates is less than $250 million
or (ii) our annual revenue was less than $100 million during the most recently completed fiscal year and the market value of our
stock held by non-affiliates is less than $700 million as of our most recently completed second fiscal quarter. If we are a smaller
reporting company at the time we cease to be an emerging growth company, we may continue to rely on exemptions from certain disclosure
requirements that are available to smaller reporting companies.
We may offer shares of our common stock and
preferred stock and warrants to purchase any of such securities, either individually or in units, with a total value of up to $100,000,000
from time to time under this prospectus, together with any applicable prospectus supplement and related free writing prospectus,
at prices and on terms to be determined by market conditions at the time of offering. Each time we offer securities under this
prospectus, we will provide offerees with a prospectus supplement that will describe the specific amounts, prices and other important
terms of the securities being offered, including, to the extent applicable:
|
•
|
designation or classification;
|
|
•
|
aggregate principal amount or aggregate offering price;
|
|
•
|
maturity, if applicable;
|
|
•
|
original issue discount, if any;
|
|
•
|
rates and times of payment of interest or dividends, if any;
|
|
•
|
redemption, conversion, exchange or sinking fund terms, if any;
|
|
•
|
conversion or exchange prices or rates, if any, and, if applicable, any provisions for changes
to or adjustments in the conversion or exchange prices or rates and in the securities or other property receivable upon conversion
or exchange;
|
|
•
|
restrictive covenants, if any;
|
|
•
|
voting or other rights, if any; and
|
|
•
|
important United States federal income tax considerations.

RISK FACTORS
Investing in our securities involves a high
degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described below and discussed under the section entitled
“Risk Factors” contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 and our Quarterly Report
on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2021, which are incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement, together
with all of the other information contained in, or incorporated by reference, in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying
prospectus, before purchasing any of our securities. These risks and uncertainties are not the only ones facing us. Additional
risks and uncertainties that we are unaware of, or that we currently deem immaterial, also may become important factors that affect
us. If any of these risks actually occur, our business, financial condition, results of operations and future prospects could be
materially and adversely affected. In that case, the trading price of our common stock could decline, and you may lose some or
all of your investment.
Risks Related to Our Company
We will require additional capital
in order to achieve commercial success and, if necessary, to finance future losses from operations as we endeavor to build revenue,
but we do not have any commitments to obtain such capital and we cannot assure you that we will be able to obtain adequate capital
as and when required.
We may not be able to generate any profit in
the foreseeable future. For the year ended December 31, 2020, we had a net loss of $17,348,622, compared to a net loss of $4,300,969
for the year ended December 31, 2019. For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, we recorded net loss of $22,570,791, compared
to a net loss of $6,152,982 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020. Accordingly,
there is no assurance that we will realize profits in fiscal 2022 or thereafter. If we fail to generate profits from our operations,
we will not be able to sustain our business. We may never report profitable operations or generate sufficient revenue to maintain
our Company as a going concern. We continue to control our cash expenses as a percentage of expected revenue on an annual basis
and thus may use our cash balances in the short term to invest in revenue growth; however, we cannot give assurance that we can
increase our cash balances or limit our cash consumption and thus maintain sufficient cash balances for our planned operations.
Future business demands may lead to cash utilization at levels greater than recently experienced. We may need to raise additional
capital in the future. However, we cannot assure that we will be able to raise additional capital on acceptable terms, or at all.
Our inability to generate profits could have an adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.
We do not have a significant operating
history and, as a result, there is a limited amount of information about us on which to make an investment decision.
Our Company was incorporated and commenced
operations in April 2012. Accordingly, we have only a limited operating history upon which to base an evaluation of our business
and prospects. Operating results for future periods are subject to numerous uncertainties and we cannot assure you that we will
achieve or sustain profitability. Our prospects must be considered in light of the risks encountered by companies in the relatively
early stage of development, particularly companies in new and rapidly evolving markets. Future operating results will depend upon
many factors, including increasing the number of affiliates, our success in attracting and retaining motivated and qualified personnel,
our ability to establish short-term credit lines, our ability to develop and market new products, control costs, and general economic
conditions. We cannot assure you that we will successfully address any of these risks.
We have limited management and
staff and will be dependent upon partnering arrangements.
As of February 1, 2021, we have 175 employees,
including our four executive officers, and engage independent contractors and consultants. Our dependence on third-party consultants
and service providers creates a number of risks, including but not limited to, the possibility that such third parties may not
be available to us as and when needed, and that we may not be able to properly control the timing and quality of work conducted
with respect to our projects. If we experience significant delays in obtaining the services of such third parties or poor performance
by such parties, our results of operations and stock price will be materially adversely affected.
The loss of any of our executive
officers could adversely affect us.
We currently only have four executive officers.
We are dependent on the extensive experience of our executive officers to implement our acquisition and growth strategy, specifically,
Michael Panosian, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, and Joshua Keller, our Vice President of Research and Development.
The loss of the services of any of our executive officers could have a negative impact on our operations and our ability to implement
our strategy. Although we maintain a “key man” life insurance policy only for Michael Panosian but none for of our
other employees, our key man policy for Mr. Panosian is for $2 million and may be insufficient to recover any losses resulting
by Mr. Panosian’s death while serving as our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.
We may be unable to attract necessary
employees or be able to prevent our current employees from leaving our Company.
To induce valuable employees to remain at our
Company, in addition to salary and cash incentives, we have provided stock options that vest over time. The value to employees
of stock options that vest over time may be significantly affected by movements in our stock price that are beyond our control
and may at any time be insufficient to counteract more lucrative offers from other companies. Despite our efforts to retain valuable
employees, members of our management may terminate their employment with us. Our success also depends on our ability to continue
to attract, retain and motivate highly employees.
If the hosts of third-party marketplaces
limit our access to such marketplaces, our operations and financial results will be adversely affected.
Third-party marketplaces account for a significant
portion of our revenues. Our sales through online third-party marketplaces represented a combined 20% of total sales for the nine
months ended September 30, 2021. We anticipate that sales of our products on third-party marketplaces will continue to account
for a significant portion of our revenues. In the future, the loss of access to these third-party marketplaces, or any significant
cost increases from operating on the marketplaces, could significantly reduce our revenues, and the success of our business depends
partly on continued access to these third-party marketplaces. Our relationships with our third-party marketplace providers could
deteriorate as a result of a variety of factors, such as if they become concerned about our ability to deliver quality products
on a timely basis or to protect a third-party’s intellectual property. In addition, third-party marketplace providers could
prohibit our access to these marketplaces if we are not able to meet the applicable required terms of use. Loss of access to a
marketplace channel could result in lower sales, and as a result, our business and financial results may suffer.
We may not have an adequate number
of authorized shares of common stock that are unissued and available for issuance to enable us to complete future equity financing
transactions or increase our equity incentive plans, which may adversely affect our ability to grow and develop the Company and
to attract key personnel.
We are authorized to issue 200,000,000 shares
of common stock, of which 129,300,090 shares were outstanding on February 15, 2022. We have reserved for issuance an aggregate
of 25,000,000 shares of common stock issuable upon the conversion of the Preferred Stock issued in this offering.
After this offering and if all of the foregoing
securities are exercised for cash, the total number of outstanding shares of common stock would be 129,300,090, which would leave
only 100,003 authorized but unissued shares of common stock remaining.
As a result of our limited number of our authorized
and unissued shares of common stock that are not subject to reservation for issuance of warrants, options or other convertible
securities, we may have insufficient shares of common stock available to issue in connection with any future equity financing transactions
we may seek to undertake. In addition, we may have insufficient shares of common stock to ask stockholders to increase shares available
under equity incentive plans for employees or other service providers, even if such increase is otherwise advisable and in the
best interests of the Company. We plan to seek approval after this offering from our stockholders to effectuate the increase in
the number of our authorized shares of common stock from 200,000,000 to 750,000,000 and to effectuate the Reverse Stock Split,
which would have the effect of increasing our authorized but unissued shares available for issuance. Our stockholders may not be
willing to approve such an increase or Reverse Stock Split. Until we effectively increase the number of authorized shares available
for issuance or effectuate the Reverse Stock Split, we may not be able to raise additional capital following this offering or increase
shares in our equity incentive plans, which may materially and adversely affect our ability to grow and develop the Company or
to attract and retain personnel critical for the execution of our business plans.
Risks Relating to this Offering
The Preferred Stock are not listed
for trading on any exchange, so the ability to trade the shares of Preferred Stock is limited.
There is no established public trading market
for the Preferred Stock being offered in this offering, and we do not expect a market to develop. In addition, we do not intend
to apply for listing the Preferred Stock on any national securities exchange or other trading market. Without an active market,
the liquidity of the Preferred Stock will be limited.
A substantial number of shares
of common stock may be sold in the market following this offering, which may depress the market price for our common stock.
Sales of a substantial number of shares of
our common stock in the public market following this offering could cause the market price of our common stock to decline. A substantial
majority of the outstanding shares of our common stock are, and the shares of common stock issued upon conversion of the Preferred
Stock will be, freely tradable without restriction or further registration under the Securities Act, unless owned or purchased
by our “affiliates” as that term is defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act.
We will have broad discretion in
how we use the net proceeds of this offering. We may not use these proceeds effectively, which could affect our results of operations
and cause our stock price to decline.
We will have considerable discretion in the
application of the net proceeds of this offering, including for any of the purposes described in the section entitled “Use
of Proceeds.” We intend to use the net proceeds from this offering for working capital purposes. As a result, investors
will be relying upon management’s judgment with only limited information about our specific intentions for the use of the
balance of the net proceeds of this offering. We may use the net proceeds for purposes that do not yield a significant return or
any return at all for our stockholders. In addition, pending their use, we may invest the net proceeds from this offering in a
manner that does not produce income or that loses value.
We have an outstanding warrant
with full-ratchet anti-dilution protection, which may cause significant dilution to our stockholders, have a material adverse impact
on the market price of our common stock and make it more difficult for us to raise funds through future equity offerings.
There is an outstanding warrant with full-ratchet
anti-dilution protection. The offering of our securities in connection with this offering triggered such full-ratchet anti-dilution
provisions in the warrant and increased the amount of common stock issuable upon the exercise of the warrant and reduced the exercise
price of such warrant. The warrant is exercisable pursuant to a cashless exercise and expires on April 19, 2024. The issuance of
shares of common stock upon the exercise of the warrant could dilute the percentage
ownership interest of all stockholders, may dilute the book value per share of our common stock and could increase the number of
our publicly traded shares, which could depress the market price of our common stock.
In addition to the dilutive effects described
above, the perceived risk of dilution as a result of the significant number of increased outstanding shares of common stock due
to the warrant may cause our common stockholders to be more inclined to sell their shares, which would contribute to a downward
movement in the price of our common stock. Moreover, the perceived risk of dilution and the resulting downward pressure on our
common stock price could encourage investors to engage in short sales of our common stock, which could further contribute to price
declines in our common stock. The fact that our stockholders and warrant holders can sell substantial amounts of our common stock
in the public market, whether or not sales have occurred or are occurring, as well as the existence of full-ratchet anti-dilution
provisions in the warrant, could make it more difficult for us to raise additional funds through the sale of equity or equity-related
securities in the future at a time and price that we deem reasonable or appropriate, or at all.
If we sell shares of our common
stock in future financings, stockholders may experience immediate dilution and, as a result, our stock price may decline.
We may from time to time issue shares of common
stock at a discount from the current market price of our common stock. As a result, our stockholders would experience immediate
dilution upon the purchase of any shares of our common stock sold at such discount. In addition, as opportunities present themselves,
we may enter into financings or similar arrangements in the future, including the issuance of debt securities, other preferred
stock or common stock. If we issue common stock or securities convertible or exercisable into common stock, our common stockholders
would experience additional dilution and, as a result, our stock price may decline.
An active trading market for our
common stock may not be sustained.
Although our common stock is listed on the
Nasdaq, the market for our common stock has demonstrated varying levels of trading activity. Furthermore, the current level of
trading may not be sustained in the future. The lack of an active market for our common stock may impair investors’ ability
to sell their shares at the time they wish to sell them or at a price that they consider reasonable, may reduce the fair market
value of their shares and may impair our ability to raise capital to continue to fund operations by selling shares and may impair
our ability to acquire additional intellectual property assets by using our shares as consideration.
Our stock price may be subject
to substantial volatility, and stockholders may lose all or a substantial part of their investment.
Our common stock currently trades on the Nasdaq.
There is limited public float, and trading volume historically has been low and sporadic. As a result, the market price for our
common stock may not necessarily be a reliable indicator of our fair market value. The price at which our common stock trades may
fluctuate as a result of a number of factors, including the number of shares available for sale in the market, quarterly variations
in our operating results, actual or anticipated announcements of new releases by us or competitors, the gain or loss of significant
customers, changes in the estimates of our operating performance, market conditions in our industry and the economy as a whole.
We could lose our listing on the
Nasdaq Capital Market if the closing bid price of our common stock does not return to above $1.00 for ten consecutive days during
the 180 days ending May 16, 2022. The loss of the Nasdaq listing would make our common stock significantly less liquid and would
affect its value.
As initially disclosed on the Current Report
on Form 8-K filed on May 19, 2021 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), the Company received written
notification from Nasdaq notifying the Company that it had failed to comply with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) (the “Minimum
Bid Price Requirement”) because the bid price for the Company’s common stock for 30 consecutive business days prior
to such date had closed below the minimum $1.00 per share requirement for continued listing. Nasdaq initially granted the Company
180 calendar days, or until November 15, 2021, to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement.
As subsequently reported on a Form 8-K filed
with the SEC on November 16, 2021, on November 16, 2021, Nasdaq granted the Company an additional 180 calendar days, or until May
16, 2022 (the “Extension Period”), to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Requirement. The extension had no immediate
effect on the listing or trading of the common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market. If, at any time before May 16, 2022, the bid
price of the Company’s common stock closes at or above $1.00 per share for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days, Nasdaq
will provide written notification that the Company has achieved compliance with the Rule. If compliance with the Rule cannot be
demonstrated by May 16, 2022, Nasdaq will provide written notification that the Company’s common stock will be delisted.
At that time, the Company may appeal Nasdaq’s determination to a Hearings Panel. There can be no assurance that the Company
will regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement during the 180-day extension period.
Upon delisting from the Nasdaq Capital Market,
our stock would be traded over-the-counter inter-dealer quotation system, more commonly known as the OTC. OTC transactions involve
risks in addition to those associated with transactions in securities traded on the securities exchanges, such as the Nasdaq Capital
Market (together, “Exchange-listed Stocks”). Many OTC stocks trade less frequently and in smaller volumes than Exchange-listed
Stocks. Accordingly, our stock would be less liquid than it would be otherwise. Also, the values of OTC stocks are often more volatile
than Exchange-listed Stocks. Additionally, institutional investors are usually prohibited from investing in OTC stocks,
and it might be more challenging to raise capital when needed.
The Company will continue to monitor the closing
bid price of its common stock and seek to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement within the allotted compliance
period; however, there can be no assurance that the Company will regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Requirement or that if
the Company does appeal a subsequent delisting determination, that such appeal would be successful.
Our intended Reverse Stock Split
might not be successful in maintaining our Nasdaq listing.
The Series F Convertible Preferred Stock and
Series G Convertible Preferred Stock will vote with the outstanding common stock on a Reverse Stock Split to be determined by the
Board of Directors within a set range. The holders of Series F Convertible Preferred Stock have the right to cast 5,000 votes per
share of Series F Convertible Preferred Stock on the Reverse Stock Split. The holders of Series G Convertible Preferred Stock have
the right to cast 500,000 votes per share of Series G Convertible Preferred Stock provided, that such votes must be counted by
the Company in the same proportion as the aggregate shares of common stock voted on Reverse Stock Split. As an example, if the
holders of 50.5% of the outstanding common stock are voted at the meeting in favor of a proposal for the Reverse Stock Split or an increase in the Company’s
authorized shares of common stock, the Company can count 50.5%
of the votes cast by the holders of the Series G Convertible Preferred Stock as votes in favor of the Reverse Stock Split. The
voting rights of the Preferred Stock were established in order to maintain the Company’s Nasdaq listen by raising the minimum
bid price of our common stock over $1.00 for ten consecutive trading days. However, there be no assurances that we will be able
to achieve a majority of votes in favor of the Reverse Stock Split. If we are unable to implement the Reverse Stock Split, we might
be delisted from Nasdaq.
If our common stock becomes subject
to the penny stock rules, it may be more difficult to sell our common stock.
The SEC has adopted rules that regulate broker-dealer
practices in connection with transactions in penny stocks. Penny stocks are generally equity securities with a price of less than
$5.00 (other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or authorized for quotation on certain automated
quotation systems, provided that current price and volume information with respect to transactions in such securities is provided
by the exchange or system). The OTC Bulletin Board does not meet such requirements and if the price of our common stock is less
than $5.00 and our common stock is no longer listed on a national securities exchange such as Nasdaq, our stock may be deemed a
penny stock. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, at least two business days prior to a transaction in a penny stock
not otherwise exempt from those rules, to deliver to the customer a standardized risk disclosure document containing specified
information and to obtain from the customer a signed and date acknowledgment of receipt of that document. In addition, the penny
stock rules require that prior to effecting any transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, a broker-dealer
must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive: (i) the
purchaser’s written acknowledgment of the receipt of a risk disclosure statement; (ii) a written agreement to transactions
involving penny stocks; and (iii) a signed and dated copy of a written suitability statement. These disclosure requirements may
have the effect of reducing the trading activity in the secondary market for our common stock, and therefore stockholders may have
difficulty selling their shares.
Because we do not anticipate paying
any cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future, capital appreciation on the common stock that will be issued
to you upon the conversion of the Preferred Stock will be your sole source of gain with respect to the common stock.
We have never paid or declared any cash dividends
on our common stock. We currently intend to retain earnings, if any, to finance the growth and development of our business and
we do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. As a result, only appreciation of the price of our common
stock will provide a return to our stockholders with respect to the common stock.
The number of shares of our preferred
stock available for future issuance or sale and the issuance of additional preferred stock senior to the Series F Convertible Preferred
Stock and Series G Convertible Preferred Stock could dilute the interests of the holders of the Preferred Stock.
We cannot predict whether future issuances
or sales of our preferred stock will decrease the per share value of our Preferred Stock. Our Board may classify and re-classify
shares of unissued capital stock by setting or changing the preferences, conversion or other rights, voting powers and restrictions,
limitations as to dividends, qualifications and terms and conditions of the redemption of such stock, subject to the rights of
the holders of Preferred Stock to consent to any such classification or reclassification of such capital stock into any class or
series of capital stock ranking senior to the Preferred Stock with respect to the payment of dividends or the distribution of assets
upon our liquidation, our dissolution or the winding up of our affairs. The issuance of additional shares of other classes or series
of preferred stock senior to the Preferred Stock could have the effect of diluting the interests of holders of the Preferred Stock.
If our common stock is delisted,
your ability to transfer or sell your shares of the Preferred Stock may be limited and the value of the Preferred Stock will be
materially adversely affected.
The Preferred Stock does not contain provisions
that protect you if our common stock is delisted. Since the Preferred Stock has no stated maturity date, you may be forced to hold
your shares of the Preferred Stock and receive dividends on the stock when, as and if authorized by our Board and declared by us.
In addition, if our common stock is delisted, your ability to transfer or sell your shares of the Preferred Stock or underlying
common stock may be limited and the value of the Securities will be materially adversely affected.
USE OF PROCEEDS
We expect to receive net proceeds of approximately
$4,350,000 from this offering, after deducting estimated offering expenses payable by us, including the Placement Agent fees. We
intend to use the net proceeds from this offering for working capital purposes.
These expected uses represent our intentions
based upon our current plans and business conditions, which could change in the future as our plans and business conditions evolve.
The amounts and timing of our actual expenditures may vary significantly depending on numerous factors. As a result, our management
will have broad discretion in the application of the net proceeds from this offering, and the investors will be relying on the
judgment of our management regarding the application of the net proceeds from this offering. Pending application of the net proceeds
as described above, we intend to invest the net proceeds of this offering in short-term, investment-grade, interest-bearing securities.
DIVIDEND POLICY
We have never declared or paid any cash dividends
on our common stock and do not expect to pay any cash dividends for the foreseeable future. We intend to use future earnings, if
any, in the operation and expansion of our business. Any future determination relating to our dividend policy will be made at the
discretion of our Board, based on our financial condition, results of operations, contractual restrictions, capital requirements,
business properties, restrictions imposed by applicable law and other factors our Board may deem relevant.
DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK
The following description of our capital stock
and provisions of our Articles of Incorporation, as amended, Amended and Restated Bylaws and the Nevada Revised Statutes, are summaries
and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the Articles of Incorporation, as amended and the Amended and Restated Bylaws.
We have filed copies of these documents with the SEC as exhibits to our registration statement, of which this prospectus supplement
forms a part.
General
Our authorized capital stock presently consists
of 200,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, and 5,000,000 shares of “blank check” preferred
stock, par value $0.001 per share.
As of February 15, 2022, there were 129,300,090 shares
of our common stock issued and outstanding and 99 record holders of our common stock.
The following is a summary of the terms of
our capital stock.
Common Stock
Holders of common stock are entitled to one
vote for each share held on all matters submitted to a vote of the stockholders and do not have cumulative voting rights. Accordingly,
holders of a majority of the shares of common stock entitled to vote in any election of directors may elect all of the directors
standing for election. Holders of common stock are entitled to receive ratably any dividends, as may be declared by the Board of
Directors out of funds legally available therefor, subject to the rights of the holders of preferred stock. Upon the liquidation,
dissolution or winding up of our company, the holders of common stock are entitled to receive ratably our net assets available
after the payment of our debts and other liabilities. Holders of common stock have no preemptive, subscription, redemption or conversion
rights. The outstanding shares of common stock are fully paid and nonassessable.
Our common stock is listed on the Nasdaq Capital
Market under the symbol “TBLT.”
Preferred Stock
Our Articles of Incorporation, as amended,
authorizes 5,000,000 shares of “blank check” preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of which none are outstanding.
The Board of Directors of the Company may provide for the issue of any or all of the unissued and undesignated shares of the preferred
stock in one or more series, and to fix the number of shares and to determine or alter for each such series, such voting powers,
full or limited, or no voting powers, and such designation, preferences, and relative, participating, optional, or other rights
and such qualifications, limitations, or restrictions thereof, as shall be stated and expressed in the resolution or resolutions
adopted by the Board of Directors providing for the issuance of such shares and as may be permitted by law, without stockholder
approval.
Our board of directors has the right to establish
one or more series of preferred stock without stockholder approval. Unless required by law or by any stock exchange on which our
common stock is listed, the authorized shares of preferred stock will be available for issuance at the discretion of our board
of directors without further action by our stockholders. Our board of directors is able to determine, with respect to any series
of preferred stock, the terms and rights of that series, including:
|
•
|
the designation of the series;
|
|
•
|
the number of shares of the series;
|
|
•
|
whether dividends, if any, will be cumulative or non-cumulative and the dividend rate, if any,
of the series;
|
|
•
|
the dates at which dividends, if any, will be payable;
|
|
•
|
the redemption rights and price or prices, if any, for shares of the series;
|
|
•
|
the terms and amounts of any sinking fund provided for the purchase or redemption of shares of
the series;
|
|
•
|
the amounts payable on shares of the series in the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation,
dissolution or winding-up of the affairs of our company;
|
|
•
|
whether the shares of the series will be convertible into shares of any other class or series,
or any other security, of our company or any other entity, and, if so, the specification of the other class or series or other
security, the conversion price or prices or rate or rates and provisions for any adjustments to such prices or rates, the date
or dates as of which the shares will be convertible, and all other terms and conditions upon which the conversion may be made;
|
|
•
|
the ranking of such series with respect to dividends and amounts payable on our liquidation, dissolution
or winding-up, which may include provisions that such series will rank senior to our common stock with respect to dividends and
those distributions;
|
|
•
|
restrictions on the issuance of shares of the same series or any other class or series; or
|
|
•
|
voting rights, if any, of the holders of the series.
|
The issuance of preferred stock could adversely
affect, among other things, the voting power of holders of common stock and the likelihood that stockholders will receive dividend
payments and payments upon our liquidation, dissolution or winding up. The issuance of preferred stock could also have the effect
of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of us.
A prospectus supplement relating to any series
of preferred stock being offered will include specific terms related to the offering. They will include, where applicable:
|
•
|
the title and stated value of the series of preferred stock and the number of shares constituting
that series;

|
whether the preferred stock will be exchangeable into debt securities, and, if applicable, the
exchange period, the exchange price, or how it will be calculated, and under what circumstances it may be adjusted;
|
|
•
|
voting rights, if any, of the preferred stock;
|
|
•
|
restrictions on transfer, sale or other assignment, if any;
|
|
•
|
whether interests in shares of preferred stock of the series will be represented by global securities;
|
|
•
|
any other specific terms, preferences, rights, limitations or restrictions of the series of shares
of preferred stock;
|
|
•
|

a parity with the series of shares of preferred stock as to dividend rights and rights upon liquidation, dissolution or winding
up of our affairs.
|
If we issue shares of preferred stock under
this prospectus, the shares will be fully paid and nonassessable and will not have, or be subject to, any preemptive or similar
rights.
Indemnification of Officers and Directors
and Insurance
Our Bylaws provide for limitation of liability
of our directors and for indemnification of our directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted under Nevada law. Our directors
and officers may be liable for a breach or failure to perform their duties in accordance with Nevada law only if their breach or
failure to perform constitutes gross negligence, willful misconduct or intentional harm on our company or our stockholders. Our
directors may not be personally liable for monetary damages for action taken or failure to take action as a director except in
specific instances established by Nevada law.
In accordance with Nevada law, we may generally
indemnify a director or officer against liability incurred in a proceeding if he or she acted in good faith, and believed that
his or her conduct was in our best interest and that he or she had no reason to believe his or her conduct was unlawful. We may
not indemnify a director or officer if the person was adjudged liable to us or in the event it is adjudicated that the director
or officer received an improper personal benefit.
Under Nevada law, we will indemnify a director
or officer who is successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any proceeding, or in the defense of any claim, issue or
matter in the proceeding, to which he or she was a party because he or she is or was a director or an officer, as the case may
be, against reasonable expenses incurred by him or her in connection with the proceeding or claim with respect to which he or she
has been successful.
We maintain a directors’ and officers’
liability insurance policy which, subject to the limitations and exclusions stated therein, covers our directors and officers for
certain actions or inactions they may take or omit to take in their capacities as directors and officers.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities
arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to our directors, officers and controlling persons pursuant to the foregoing
provisions, or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as
expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.
The Company maintains general liability insurance
that covers certain liabilities of its directors and officers arising out of claims based on acts or omissions in their capacities
as directors or officers, including liabilities under the Securities Act. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under
the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers, or persons who control the Company, the Company has been informed that,
in the opinion of the Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore
unenforceable.
These provisions may discourage stockholders
from bringing a lawsuit against the Company’s directors for breach of their fiduciary duty, or may have the practical effect
in some cases of eliminating the Company’s stockholders’ ability to collect monetary damages from its directors and
officers. These provisions may also have the effect of reducing the likelihood of derivative litigation against directors and officers,
even though such an action, if successful, might otherwise benefit the Company and its stockholders. Furthermore, a stockholder’s
investment may be adversely affected to the extent the Company pays the costs of settlement and damage awards against directors
and officers pursuant to these indemnification provisions.

Common Stock
See “Description of our Capital Stock;
Common Stock.”
PRIVATE
PLACEMENT TRANSACTION
In a concurrent private placement, we are selling
to purchasers of our Preferred Stock in this offering, warrants to purchase 18,750,000 shares of our common stock.
The Warrants and the shares of our common stock
issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants are not being registered under the Securities Act, are not being offered pursuant to
this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus and are being offered pursuant to the exemption provided in Section
4(a)(2) under the Securities Act and Rule 506(b) promulgated thereunder. Accordingly, purchasers of the Warrants, may only sell
shares of common stock issued upon exercise of the Warrants being sold to them in the concurrent private placement, pursuant to
an effective registration statement under the Securities Act covering the resale of those shares, an exemption under Rule 144 under
the Securities Act or another applicable exemption under the Securities Act.
Each Warrant will be exercisable
commencing on the later of the Stockholder Approval Date and six months after the date of issuance at an exercise price of
$0.251 per share, subject to adjustment, and will remain exercisable for five years from the initial exercise date, but not
thereafter. A holder of Warrants will not have the right to exercise any portion of its Warrants if the holder, together with
its affiliates, would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% (or, at the election of a holder prior to the date of issuance,
9.99%) of the number of shares of our common stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such exercise; provided,
however, that upon notice to the Company, the holder may increase or decrease such beneficial ownership limitation, provided
that in no event shall such beneficial ownership limitation exceed 9.99% and any increase in the beneficial ownership
limitation will not be effective until 61 days following notice of such increase from the holder to us. In addition, the
holders of the Warrants will have the right to participate in any rights offering or distribution of assets together with the
holders of our common stock on an as-exercised basis.
The exercise price and number of the shares
of our common stock issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants will be subject to adjustment for stock splits, reverse splits,
and similar capital transactions, as described in the Warrants. The Warrants will be exercisable on a “cashless” basis
in certain circumstances.
If a fundamental transaction occurs, then the
successor entity will succeed to, and be substituted for us, and may exercise every right and power that we may exercise and will
assume all of our obligations under the purchase warrants with the same effect as if such successor entity had been named in the
purchase warrant itself. If holders of shares of our common stock are given a choice as to the securities, cash or property to
be received in a fundamental transaction, then the holder shall be given the same choice as to the consideration it receives upon
any exercise of the purchase warrant following such fundamental transaction. In addition, in certain circumstances, upon a fundamental
transaction, the holder will have the right to require us to repurchase its purchase warrant at its fair value using the Black
Scholes option pricing formula; provided, however, that, if the fundamental transaction is not within our control, including not
approved by our Board, then the holder shall only be entitled to receive the same type or form of consideration (and in the same
proportion), at the Black Scholes value per share of common stock in the fundamental transaction for each share of common stock
underlying a purchase warrant, that is being offered and paid to the holders of our common stock in connection with the fundamental
transaction, whether that consideration be in the form of cash, stock or any combination thereof, or whether the holders of common
stock are given the choice to receive from among alternative forms of consideration in connection with the fundamental transaction.
Pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement
dated as of February 15, 2022, by and among the Company and the investor signatories thereto, we will use commercially reasonable
efforts to cause a registration statement providing for the resale by holders of shares of our common stock issuable upon the exercise
of the Warrants to become effective within 180 days following the closing date, and to keep such registration statement effective
until such time as no holder owns any Warrants or Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise thereof.
PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
We engaged H.C. Wainwright & Co., LLC to
act as our exclusive placement agent to solicit offers to purchase the shares of our Preferred Stock offered by this prospectus
supplement and the accompanying prospectus (the “Placement Agent”). The Placement Agent has no commitment to buy any
of the securities, is not selling such securities, nor is it required to arrange for the purchase and sale of any specific number
or dollar amount of such securities, other than to use its “reasonable best efforts” to arrange for the sale of such
securities by us. Therefore, we may not sell all of the shares of our Preferred Stock being offered. The terms of this offering
were subject to market conditions and negotiations between us, Wainwright and prospective investors. Wainwright will have no authority
to bind us by virtue of the engagement letter. We have entered into a securities purchase agreement directly with institutional

Regulation M
The Placement Agent may be deemed to be an
underwriter within the meaning of Section 2(a)(11) of the Securities Act and any fees received by it and any profit realized

Overview
ToughBuilt Industries, Inc. (“ToughBuilt,”
the “Company,” “we,” “us” and “our” and similar expressions) is an advanced product
design, manufacturer and distributor with emphasis on innovative products. Currently focused on tools and other accessories for
the professional and do-it-yourself construction industries, we market and distribute various home improvement and construction
product lines for both the do-it-yourself and professional markets under the TOUGHBUILT brand name, within the global multibillion
dollar per year tool market industry. All of our products are designed by our in-house design team. Since launching product sales
in 2013, we have experienced significant annual sales growth. Our current product line includes three major categories, with several
additional categories in various stages of development, consisting of Soft Goods & Kneepads and Sawhorses & Work Products.
Our mission is to provide products to the building and home improvement communities that are innovative, of superior quality derived
in part from enlightened creativity for our end users while enhancing performance, improving well-being and building high brand
loyalty.
Since our initial launch of product sales seven
years ago, we have experienced annual sales growth from approximately $1,000,000 in 2013 to approximately $39,000,000 in 2020.
Competition
The tool equipment and accessories industry
is highly competitive on a worldwide basis. We compete with a significant number of other tool equipment and accessories manufacturers
and suppliers to the construction, home improvement and Do-It-Yourself industry, many of which have the following:
|
•
|
Significantly greater financial resources than we have;
|
|
•
|
More comprehensive product lines;
|
|
•
|
Longer-standing relationships with suppliers, manufacturers, and retailers;
|
|
•
|
Broader distribution capabilities;
|
|
•
|
Stronger brand recognition and loyalty; and
|
|
•
|
The ability to invest substantially more in product advertising and sales.
|
Our competitors’ greater capabilities
in the above areas enable them to better differentiate their products from ours, gain stronger brand loyalty, withstand periodic
downturns in the construction and home improvement equipment and product industries, compete effectively on the basis of price
and production, and more quickly develop new products. These competitors include DeWalt, Caterpillar, and Samsung Active.
The markets for our mobile products and services
are also highly competitive and we are confronted by aggressive competition in all areas of its business. These markets are characterized
by frequent product introductions and rapid technological advances that have substantially increased the capabilities and use of
mobile communication and media devices, personal computers and other digital electronic devices. Our competitors who sell mobile
devices and personal computers based on other operating systems have aggressively cut prices and lowered their product margins
to gain or maintain market share. Our financial condition and operating results can be adversely affected by these and other industry-wide
downward pressures on gross margins. Principal competitive factors important to us include price, product features, relative price/performance,
product quality and reliability, design innovation, a strong third-party software and peripherals ecosystem, marketing and distribution
capability, service and support, and corporate reputation.
We are focused on expanding its market opportunities
related to mobile communication and media devices. These industries are highly competitive and include several large, well-funded
and experienced participants. We expect competition in these industries to intensify significantly as competitors attempt to imitate
some of the features of the Company’s products and applications within their own products or, alternatively, collaborate
with each other to offer solutions that are more competitive than those they currently offer. These industries are characterized
by aggressive pricing practices, frequent product introductions, evolving design approaches and technologies, rapid adoption of
technological and product advancements by competitors, and price sensitivity on the part of consumers and businesses. Competitors
include Apple, Samsung, and Qualcomm, among others.
Risk and Uncertainty Concerning COVID-19
In March 2020, the World Health Organization
declared the outbreak of a novel coronavirus (COVID-19) as a pandemic which continues to spread throughout the United States and
the World. We are currently monitoring the outbreak of COVID-19 and the related business and travel restrictions and changes to
behavior intended to reduce its spread. All of our Chinese facilities were temporarily closed for a period of time. Most of these
facilities have been reopened. Depending on the progression of the outbreak, our ability to obtain necessary supplies and ship
finished products to customers may be partly or completely disrupted globally. Also, our ability to maintain appropriate labor
levels could be disrupted. If the coronavirus continues to progress, it could have a material negative impact on our results of
operations and cash flow, in addition to the impact on its employees. We have concluded that while it is reasonably possible that
the virus could have a negative impact on the results of operations, the specific impact is not readily determinable as of the
date of these financial statements. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome
of this uncertainty.

on April 9, 2012, as Phalanx Inc. We changed our name to ToughBuilt Industries, Inc. on December 29, 2015.

Overview
We were formed to design, manufacture, and
distribute innovative tools and accessories to the building industry. We market and distribute various home improvement and construction

Since August 2013, pursuant to a Service Agreement,
we have been collaborating with Belegal, a Chinese firm (“Belegal”), whose team of experts has provided ToughBuilt
with additional engineering, sourcing services, and quality control support for our operations in China. Belegal assists us with
supply chain management (process and operations in China) for our operations in China, among other things, facilitating the transmission
of our purchase orders to our suppliers in China, conducting “in-process” quality checking and inspection, and shipping
end-products manufactured in China to their final destinations. In accordance with the Services Agreement, we pay all of the monthly
costs for payroll, overhead, and other operating expenses associated with the Belegal’s activities on behalf of ToughBuilt.
Our business is currently based on development
of innovative and state-of-the-art products, primarily in tools and hardware category, with particular focus on building and construction
industry with the ultimate goal of making life easier and more productive for contractors and workers alike. Our current product
line includes two major categories related to this field, with several additional categories in various stages of development,
consisting of soft goods and Kneepads and Sawhorses and Work Products.
ToughBuilt designs and manages its product
life cycles through a controlled and structured process. We involve customers and industry experts from our target markets in the
definition and refinement of our product development. Product development emphasis is placed on meeting and exceeding industry
standards and product specifications, ease of integration, ease of use, cost reduction, design-for manufacturability, quality,
and reliability.
Our mission consists, of providing products

Products
We create innovative products that help our
customers build faster, build stronger, and work smarter. We accomplish this by listening to what our customers want and need and
researching how professionals work, then we create tools that help them save time, save hassle and save money.
TOUGHBUILT® manufactures and distributes
an array of high-quality and rugged tool belts, tool bags, and other personal tool organizer products. We also manufacture and
distribute a complete line of knee pads for various construction applications. Our line of job site tools and material support
products consists of a full line of miter saw and table saw stands and saw horses/job site tables and roller stands. All of our
products are designed and engineered in the United States and manufactured in China and India under our quality control supervision.
We do not need government approval for any of our products.
Our soft-sided tool storage line is designed
for a wide range of Do-It-Yourself and professional needs. This line of pouches and tool and accessories bags is designed to organize
our customers’ tools faster and easier. Interchangeable pouches clip on and off any belt, bag ladder wall, or vehicle. Our
products let our customers carry what they want so they have it when they want it. ToughBuilt’s wide mouth tool carry-all
bags come in sizes from 12 inches to 30 inches. They all have steel-reinforced handles and padded shoulder straps which allow for
massive loads to be carried with ease. Rigid plastic hard-body lining protects everything inside. Double mesh pockets included
inside provide complete visibility for stored items. They include a lockable zipper for added security and safety and secondary
side handles for when it takes more than one to carry the load.
All of these products have innovative designs
with unique features that provide extra functionality and enhanced user experience. Patented features such as our exclusive “Cliptech”
mechanism incorporated in some of the products in this line are unique in these products for the industry and have distinguished
the line from other similarly situated products thus we believe, increasing appeal among the other products of this category in
the professional community and among the enthusiasts.
Soft Goods
The flagship of the product line is the soft
goods line that consists of over 100 variations of tool pouches, tool rigs, tool belts and accessories, tools bags, totes, variety
of storage solutions, and office organizers/bags for laptop/tablet/cellphones, etc. Management believes that the breadth of the
line is one of the deepest in the industry and has specialized designs to suit professionals from all sectors of the industry including
plumbers, electricians, framers, builders, and more.
We have a selection of over 10 models of kneepads,
some with revolutionary and patented design features that allow the users to interchange components to suit particular conditions
of use. Management believes that these kneepads are among the best performing kneepads in the industry. Our “all terrain”
knee pad protection with snapshell technology is part of our interchangeable kneepad system which helps to customize the jobsite
needs. They are made with superior quality using multilevel layered construction, heavy-duty webbing, and abrasion-resistant PVC
rubber.
Metal Goods
Sawhorses and Work Products
The second major category consists of Sawhorses
and Work Support products with unique designs and robust construction targeted for the most discerning users in the industry. The
innovative designs and construction of the more than 15 products in this category have led to the sawhorses becoming among the
best sellers of category everywhere they are sold. The newest additions in this category include several stands and work support
products that are quickly gaining recognition in the industry and are expected to position themselves in the top tier products
in a short time. Our sawhorse line, miter saw, table saw & roller stands are built to very high standards. Our sawhorse/jobsite
table is fast to set up, holds 2,400 pounds, has adjustable heights, is made of all-metal construction, and has a compact design.
We believe that these lines of products are slowly becoming the standard in the construction industry.
All of our products are designed in house to
achieve features and benefits for not only the professional construction worker but also for the Do-It-Yourself person.
Business Strategy
Our product strategy is to develop product
lines in a number of categories rather than focus on a single line of goods. We believe that this approach allows for rapid growth,
wider brand recognition, and may ultimately result in increased sales and profits within an accelerated time period. We believe
that building brand awareness of our current ToughBuilt lines of products will expand our share of the pertinent markets. Our business
strategy includes the following key elements:
|
•
|
A commitment to technological innovation achieved through consumer insight, creativity, and speed
to market;
|
|
•
|
A broad selection of products in both brand and private labels;
|
|
•
|
Superior customer service; and
|
We will continue to consider other market opportunities
while focusing on our customers’ specific requirements to increase sales.
Market
According to “Statista & Statistic
Brain” the annual revenue in the construction industry (based on firm revenue) was $1.731 trillion for 2016 in the United
States. There was approximately $394.6 billion in home improvement sales in the U.S. in 2018 (See https://www.statista.com/statistics/239759/predicted-sales-of-home-improvement-retailers-in-the-us).
The heavy and civil engineering industry is over $260 billion in sales with tools and hardware alone totaling over $60 billion
for that same time period. In 2016, there were approximately 729,000 construction companies in the United States employing more
than 7.3 million employees. In addition to the construction market, our products are marketed to the “Do-It-Yourself”
and home improvement market place. The home improvement industry has fared much better in the aftermath of the Great Recession
than the housing market. The U.S. housing stock of more than 130 million homes requires regular investment merely to offset normal
depreciation. And many households that might have traded up to more desirable homes during the downturn decided instead to make
improvements to their current homes. Meanwhile, federal and state stimulus programs encouraged homeowners and rental property owners
to invest in energy-efficient upgrades that they might otherwise have deferred. Finally, many rental property owners, responding
to a surge in demand from households either facing foreclosure or nervous about buying amid the housing market uncertainty, reinvested
in their units.
As a result, improvement and repair spending
held up well compared to residential construction spending. According to “Home Improvement – Still Growing in 2019,”
on www.hiri.org, “the HIRI/IHS Markit forecast expects 5.5% growth in the home improvement products market in 2019 after
a strong 6.2% in 2018.”
Total home improvement product sales were expected
to increase 5.5% in 2018 to $420 billion in total sales. The Professional Market was expected to increase 6.0% in 2019 over 2018
and the Consumer Market will see a sales increase of 5.3%.
TOUGHBUILT® products are available worldwide
in many major retailers ranging from home improvement and construction products and services stores to major online outlets. Currently,
we have placement in Home Depot, Menards, Toolbank (UK), Bunnings (Australia), Princess Auto (Canada), Dong Shin Tool PIA (S. Korea)
as well as seeking to grow our sales in global markets such as Western and Central Europe, Eastern Europe, South America, and the
Middle East.
Retailers by region include:
|
•
|
United States: Lowe’s, Home Depot, Menards, GM products, Fire Safety, Hartville Hardware,
ORR, Pooley, YOW, Wesco, Buzzi, and Western Pacific Building Materials
|

South Korea: Dong Shin Tool PIA Co., Ltd.
|
We are actively expanding into markets in Mexico
and Latin American countries and in the Middle East and South Africa.
We are currently in product line reviews and
discussions with Home Depot Canada, Do It Best, True Value, and other major retailers both domestically and internationally. A
product line review requires the supplier to submit a comprehensive proposal which includes product offerings, prices, competitive
market studies, and relevant industry trends, and other information. Management anticipates, within the near term, adding to its
customer base up to three major retailers, along with several distributors and private retailers within six sectors and among 56
targeted countries.
Innovation and Brand Strength
Management believes that the robust capabilities
at ToughBuilt eclipse those of many competitors as not every distributor or factory has the ability to quickly identify industry
and end-user opportunities and execute quickly to deliver winning product lines consistently. Also, in our view, most distributors
and factories do not have a recognizable and reputable brand or the proven ability to reach major retailers globally to position
their products and brands. We believe that we are able to take a design from concept to market within a very short period of time.
Product and Services Diversification
TOUGHBUILT® is a singular brand with a
driven team that is poised to scale into a highly recognized global entity. We aim to grow ToughBuilt with several significant
subsidiaries in the next few years to become the hub/platform for professionals, DIY’s (Do-It-Yourselfers), and passionate
builders everywhere. Management anticipates that future subsidiaries will focus on licensing, gear, mobile, equipment rentals,
and maintenance services.
New Products
Tools
In 2018, we launched 28 SKUs of tool belt and
pouches. We intend to launch the following tools in the first half of 2021:
Mobile Device Products
Since 2013, we have been planning, designing,
engineering, and sourcing the development of a new line of ToughBuilt mobile devices and accessories to be used in the construction
industry and by building enthusiasts. We believe that increasing numbers of companies in the construction industry are requiring
their employees to utilize mobile devices not just to communicate with others but to utilize the special apps that will allow the
construction workers to do their job better and more efficiently. All of our mobile devices are designed and built in accordance
with IP-68 and to a military standard level of durability.
Our ruggedized mobile line of products was
created to place customized technology and wide varieties of data in the palm of the building professionals and enthusiasts such
as contractors, subcontractors, foremen, general laborers, and others. We are designing the devices, accessories, and custom apps
to allow the users to plan with confidence, organize faster, find labor and products faster, estimate accurately, purchase wisely,
protect themselves, workers, and their business, create and track invoicing faster and easier.
Mobile Device Market
Based upon an annual white paper published
by the Mobile and Wireless Practice of Venture Development Corporation, we believe that an increasing number of companies are requiring
their employees to transact business in the field and/or other non-traditional office environments. Because of this and other factors,
the construction industry is accelerating its acceptance of wireless technology. We further believe that the construction industry,
like other industries, will be leveraging mobile and wireless solutions to address the need for greater collaboration among a highly
mobile and distributed workforce.
We believe that mobility is one of the top
technology trends that construction companies have been focusing on in 2020 and beyond. Mobile technology continues to have a significant
impact on business, specifically with regard to business communication as this technology enhances the ability for colleagues at
different locations to easily communicate, enhances customer experience through the improvement of applications and websites available
to consumers to do business through their devices “at their fingertips,” and optimizes business operations as there
is instant access to business functions at any time and from any location.
While the construction industry has widely
adopted solutions such as push to talk (PTT) telephony applications, the use of mobile and wireless data applications has been
limited. IT solutions in general and mobile and wireless solutions specifically have been adopted at varying degrees within organizations
and to support the various phases of construction projects. Currently, the business planning, engineering, and procurement operations
have more effectively deployed IT solutions while actual construction operations have fallen behind in IT infrastructure and field
automation solutions. The construction and engineering workforce is inherently mobile. However, construction sites have never effectively
leveraged (wireless) communications networks to connect these distributed and often remote workers and their assets. Nevertheless,
construction project managers require real-time access to a variety of information, including real-time tool inventory management,
raw materials deliveries, job costing, time stamping, and general project management information. The challenge, however, is the
lack of network access on construction sites resulting in an information bottleneck on the job site. Buoyed by advances in wireless
technologies – including coverage, performance, security, and cost of ownership – we believe this is becoming an issue
of the past for construction operations.
Mobile Apps
We intend to include apps on our mobile devices
and are developing, with a third-party applications developer, apps which will include, among other things, building codes, permitting,
estimating, and job listings. The purposes of the apps that are being developed address:
|
•
|
Reducing construction delays. Gathering real-time information at the job site about issues such
as tradespeople and contractors present at the site, construction progress, or incidents, can reduce overall project delays. This
critical information helps to bring issues to light that might put projects on hold, and keep construction on schedule.
|
|
•
|
Improving communication with owners and project stakeholders. Completing daily reports at the job
site on mobile devices and sending automated emails can tighten the communication loop with project stakeholders. When all parties
involved in the project have access to the same information at the same time, errors are reduced and issues requiring attention
can be addressed faster.
|
|
•
|
Increasing back office efficiency. By eliminating the use of paper and spreadsheets, construction
companies can save hundreds of hours spent on data entry, collating information for reporting, or looking for paperwork that has
been lost or filed away. Increasing back office efficiency allows projects to be run leaner and to be completed on time and on
budget.
|
|
•
|
Improving accountability of field staff. Staff travel times, GPS locations and time spent on-site
can all be consistently monitored with mobile apps. This improves accountability and reduces labor costs. Costs can be also reduced
with mobile timesheets that record clock-in/clock-out time to the minute.
|
|
•
|
Improving accuracy of project documentation. Using mobile apps to capture information at the job
site improves accuracy and reduces issues that arise from illegible handwriting, inconsistent data, and information gaps. Photos,
GPS, time stamps, and signatures captured on-site provide an accurate and indisputable audit trail for the project, delivering
accountability to clients or evidence in legal disputes.
|
|
•
|
Improving equipment management. Construction companies that use a database-driven mobile solution
can maximize the use of equipment through better management and tracking. Real-time information about maintenance schedules, availability,
and equipment locations helps to improve inventory planning and use.
|
|
•
|
Utilizing real-time mobile access to plans and bylaws. With apps that provide two-way access to
information, construction companies can file electronic versions of drawings, plans, or bylaws for quick offline access by teams
in the field. This improves productivity and reduces the need for re-work.
|
Sales Strategy
The devices, accessories, and bolt-on digital
tools will be sold through relevant home improvement big box stores, direct marketing to construction companies, direct marketing
of trade/wholesale outlets and to professional outlets.
Intellectual Property
We hold several patents and trademarks of various
durations and believe that we hold, have applied for or license all of the patent, trademark, and other intellectual property rights
necessary to conduct our business. We utilize trademarks (licensed and owned) on nearly all of our products and believe having
distinctive marks that are readily identifiable is an important factor in creating a market for our goods, in identifying our brands
and our Company, and in distinguishing our goods from the goods of others. We consider our ToughBuilt®, Cliptech®,
and Fearless® trademarks to be among our most valuable intangible assets. Trademarks registered both in and outside
the U.S. are generally valid for 10 years, depending on the jurisdiction, and are generally subject to an indefinite number of
renewals for a like period on appropriate application.
In 2019, the United States Patent and Trademark
Office (USPTO) granted two new design patents (U.S. D840,961 S and US D841,635 S) that cover ToughBuilt’s ruggedized mobile
devices, which are valid for a period of 15 years. We also have several patents pending with the USPTO and anticipate three or
four of them to be granted in the near future.
We also rely on trade secret protection for
our confidential and proprietary information relating to our design and processes for our products. Copyright protection is also
utilized when appropriate.
Domain names are a valuable corporate asset
for companies around the world, including ToughBuilt. Domain names often contain a trademark or service mark or even a corporate
name and are often considered intellectual property. The recognition and value of the ToughBuilt name, trademark, and domain name
are core strengths of the Company.
We have entered into and will continue to enter
into confidentiality, non-competition, and proprietary rights assignment agreements with our employees and independent contractors.
We have entered into and will continue to enter into confidentiality agreements with our suppliers to protect our intellectual
property.
Competition
The tool equipment and accessories industry
is highly competitive on a worldwide basis. We compete with a significant number of other tool equipment and accessories manufacturers
and suppliers to the construction, home improvement, and Do-It-Yourself industry, many of which have the following:
|
•
|
Significantly greater financial resources than we have;
|
|
•
|
More comprehensive product lines;
|
|
•
|
Longer-standing relationships with suppliers, manufacturers, and retailers;
|
|
•
|
Broader distribution capabilities;
|
|
•
|
Stronger brand recognition and loyalty; and
|
|
•
|
The ability to invest substantially more in product advertising and sales.
|
Our competitors’ greater capabilities
in the above areas enable them to better differentiate their products from ours, gain stronger brand loyalty, withstand periodic
downturns in the construction and home improvement equipment and product industries, compete effectively on the basis of price
and production, and more quickly develop new products. These competitors include DeWalt, Caterpillar, and Samsung Active.
The markets for the Company’s mobile
products and services are also highly competitive and the Company is confronted by aggressive competition in all areas of its business.
These markets are characterized by frequent product introductions and rapid technological advances that have substantially increased
the capabilities and use of mobile communication and media devices, personal computers, and other digital electronic devices. The
Company’s competitors who sell mobile devices and personal computers based on other operating systems have aggressively cut
prices and lowered their product margins to gain or maintain market share. The Company’s financial condition and operating
results can be adversely affected by these and other industry-wide downward pressures on gross margins. Principal competitive factors
important to the Company include price, product features, relative price/performance, product quality and reliability, design innovation,
a strong third-party software, and peripherals ecosystem, marketing and distribution capability, service and support, and corporate
reputation.
The Company is focused on expanding its market
opportunities related to mobile communication and media devices. These industries are highly competitive and include several large,
well-funded, and experienced participants. The Company expects competition in these industries to intensify significantly as competitors
attempt to imitate some of the features of the Company’s products and applications within their own products or, alternatively,
collaborate with each other to offer solutions that are more competitive than those they currently offer. These industries are
characterized by aggressive pricing practices, frequent product introductions, evolving design approaches and technologies, rapid
adoption of technological and product advancements by competitors, and price sensitivity on the part of consumers and businesses.
Competitors include Apple, Samsung, and Qualcomm, among others.
Employees
As of February ___, 2022, we have 52 full-time
employees, including our four executive officers, and 20 independent contractors and consultants. We engage consultants on an as-needed
basis to supplement existing staff. All of our employees, consultants, and contractors that are involved with sensitive and/or
proprietary information have signed nondisclosure agreements. Since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, we have taken an integrated
approach to helping our employees manage their work and personal responsibilities, with a strong focus on employee well-being,
health, and safety.
IMPLICATIONS OF BEING AN EMERGING GROWTH COMPANY
We are an “emerging growth company,”
as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”) .. We will remain an emerging growth
company until the earlier of (i) the last day of the fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of the first sale of our common
stock pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”);
(ii) the last day of the fiscal year in which we have total annual gross revenues of $1.07 billion or more; (iii) the date on which
we have issued more than $1.07 billion in nonconvertible debt during the previous three years; or (iv) the date on which we are
deemed to be a large accelerated filer under applicable SEC rules. We expect that we will remain an emerging growth company for
the foreseeable future, but cannot retain our emerging growth company status indefinitely. For so long as we remain an emerging
growth company, we are permitted and intend to rely on exemptions from specified disclosure requirements that are applicable to
other public companies that are not emerging growth companies. These exemptions include:
|
•
|
being permitted to provide only two years of audited financial statements, in addition to any required
unaudited interim financial statements, with correspondingly reduced “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations” disclosure;
|
|
•
|
not being required to comply with the requirement of auditor attestation of our internal controls
over financial reporting;
|
|
•
|
not being required to comply with any requirement that may be adopted by the Public Company Accounting
Oversight Board regarding mandatory audit firm rotation or a supplement to the auditor’s report providing additional information
about the audit and the financial statements;
|
|
•
|
reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation; and
|
|
•
|
not being required to hold a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder
approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.
|
For as long as we continue to be an emerging
growth company, we expect that we will take advantage of the reduced disclosure obligations available to us as a result of that
classification. Accordingly, the information contained herein may be different than the information you receive from other public
companies in which you hold stock.
An emerging growth company can take advantage
of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting
standards. This allows an emerging growth company to delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would
otherwise apply to private companies. We have irrevocably elected to avail ourselves of this extended transition period and, as
a result, we will not be required to adopt new or revised accounting standards on the dates on which adoption of such standards
is required for other public reporting companies.
We are also a “smaller reporting company,”
meaning that the market value of our stock held by non-affiliates is less than $700 million as of our most recently completed second
fiscal quarter and our annual revenue was less than $100 million during our most recently completed fiscal year. We may continue
to be a smaller reporting company if either (i) the market value of our stock held by non-affiliates is less than $250 million
or (ii) our annual revenue was less than $100 million during the most recently completed fiscal year and the market value of our
stock held by non-affiliates is less than $700 million as of our most recently completed second fiscal quarter. If we are a smaller
reporting company at the time we cease to be an emerging growth company, we may continue to rely on exemptions from certain disclosure
requirements that are available to smaller reporting companies.
We may offer shares of our common stock and
preferred stock and warrants to purchase any of such securities, either individually or in units, with a total value of up to $100,000,000
from time to time under this prospectus, together with any applicable prospectus supplement and related free writing prospectus,
at prices and on terms to be determined by market conditions at the time of offering. Each time we offer securities under this
prospectus, we will provide offerees with a prospectus supplement that will describe the specific amounts, prices and other important
terms of the securities being offered, including, to the extent applicable:
|
•
|
designation or classification;
|

•
|
aggregate principal amount or aggregate offering price;
|
|
•
|
maturity, if applicable;
|
|
•
|
original issue discount, if any;
|
|
•
|
rates and times of payment of interest or dividends, if any;
|
|
•
|
redemption, conversion, exchange or sinking fund terms, if any;
|
|
•
|
conversion or exchange prices or rates, if any, and, if applicable, any provisions for changes
to or adjustments in the conversion or exchange prices or rates and in the securities or other property receivable upon conversion
or exchange;
|
|
•
|
restrictive covenants, if any;
|
|
•
|
voting or other rights, if any; and
|
|
•
|
important United States federal income tax considerations.

Common Stock
A prospectus supplement and any related free
writing prospectus that we may authorize to be provided to you may also add, update or change information contained in this prospectus
or in documents we have incorporated by reference. However, no prospectus supplement or free writing prospectus will offer a security
that is not registered and described in this prospectus at the time of the effectiveness of the registration statement of which
this prospectus is a part.
We may sell the securities to or through underwriters,
dealers or agents or directly to purchasers. We, as well as any agents acting on our behalf, reserve the sole right to accept and
to reject in whole or in part any proposed purchase of securities. Each prospectus supplement will set forth the names of any underwriters,
dealers or agents involved in the sale of securities described in that prospectus supplement and any applicable fee, commission
or discount arrangements with them, details regarding any over-allotment option granted to them, and net proceeds to us. The following
is a summary of the securities we may offer with this prospectus.
We currently have authorized 200,000,000 shares
of common stock, $0.0001 par value. We may offer shares of our common stock either alone or underlying other registered securities
convertible into or exercisable for our common stock. Holders of our common stock are entitled to such dividends as our Board of
Directors (the “Board” or “Board of Directors”) may declare from time to time out of legally available
funds, subject to the preferential rights of the holders of any shares of our preferred stock that are outstanding or that we may
issue in the future. Currently, we do not pay any dividends on our common stock. Each holder of our common stock is entitled to
one vote per share. In this prospectus, we provide a general description of, among other things, the rights and restrictions that
apply to holders of our common stock.
USE OF PROCEEDS
Except as described in any prospectus supplement
and any free writing prospectus in connection with a specific offering, we currently intend to use the net proceeds from the sale
of the securities offered under this prospectus for general corporate purposes and working capital and capital expenditures. We
have not determined the amount of net proceeds to be used specifically for the foregoing purposes. As a result, our management
will have broad discretion in the allocation of the net proceeds and investors will be relying on the judgment of our management
regarding the application of the proceeds of any sale of the securities. Pending use of the net proceeds, we may invest the proceeds
in short-term, investment-grade, interest-bearing instruments.
DIVIDEND POLICY
We have never declared or paid any cash dividends
on our securities. We have no present plan to declare and pay any dividends on our securities in the near future. We currently
intend to retain most, if not all, of our available funds and any future earnings to operate and expand our business. Any future
determination to pay dividends will be at the discretion of our board of directors, subject to applicable laws, and will depend
on our financial condition, results of operations, capital requirements, general business conditions and other factors that our
board of directors considers relevant.
THE SECURITIES WE MAY OFFER
We may offer shares of common stock, shares
of preferred stock or warrants to purchase common stock, preferred stock or any combination of the foregoing, either individually
or as units comprised of one or more of the other securities. We may offer up to $100,000,000 of securities under this prospectus.
If securities are offered as units, we will describe the terms of the units in a prospectus supplement.
DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK
General
Our authorized capital stock presently consists
of 200,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, and 5,000,000 shares of “blank check” preferred
stock, par value $0.001 per share. As of February 15, 2022, we had 129,300,090 shares of common stock outstanding and 99 record
holders of our common stock.
The following is a summary of the terms of
our capital stock.
Common Stock
Holders of common stock are entitled to one
vote for each share held on all matters submitted to a vote of the stockholders and do not have cumulative voting rights. Accordingly,
holders of a majority of the shares of common stock entitled to vote in any election of directors may elect all of the directors
standing for election. Holders of common stock are entitled to receive ratably any dividends, as may be declared by the Board of
Directors out of funds legally available therefor, subject to the rights of the holders of preferred stock. Upon the liquidation,
dissolution or winding up of our company, the holders of common stock are entitled to receive ratably our net assets available
after the payment of our debts and other liabilities. Holders of common stock have no preemptive, subscription, redemption or conversion
rights. The outstanding shares of common stock are fully paid and nonassessable.
Listing
Our common stock is listed on the Nasdaq Capital
Market under the symbol “TBLT.”
Preferred Stock
Our Articles of Incorporation, as amended,
authorizes 5,000,000 shares of “blank check” preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of which none are outstanding.
The Board of Directors of the Company may provide for the issue of any or all of the unissued and undesignated shares of the preferred
stock in one or more series, and to fix the number of shares and to determine or alter for each such series, such voting powers,
full or limited, or no voting powers, and such designation, preferences, and relative, participating, optional, or other rights
and such qualifications, limitations, or restrictions thereof, as shall be stated and expressed in the resolution or resolutions
adopted by the Board of Directors providing for the issuance of such shares and as may be permitted by law, without stockholder
approval.
Our board of directors has the right to establish
one or more series of preferred stock without stockholder approval. Unless required by law or by any stock exchange on which our
common stock is listed, the authorized shares of preferred stock will be available for issuance at the discretion of our board
of directors without further action by our stockholders. Our board of directors is able to determine, with respect to any series
of preferred stock, the terms and rights of that series, including:
|
•
|
the designation of the series;
|
|
•
|
the number of shares of the series;
|
|
•
|
whether dividends, if any, will be cumulative or non-cumulative and the dividend rate, if any,
of the series;
|
|
•
|
the dates at which dividends, if any, will be payable;
|
|
•
|
the redemption rights and price or prices, if any, for shares of the series;
|
|
•
|
the terms and amounts of any sinking fund provided for the purchase or redemption of shares of
the series;
|
|
•
|
the amounts payable on shares of the series in the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation,
dissolution or winding-up of the affairs of our company;
|
|
•
|
whether the shares of the series will be convertible into shares of any other class or series,
or any other security, of our company or any other entity, and, if so, the specification of the other class or series or other
security, the conversion price or prices or rate or rates and provisions for any adjustments to such prices or rates, the date
or dates as of which the shares will be convertible, and all other terms and conditions upon which the conversion may be made;
|
|
•
|
the ranking of such series with respect to dividends and amounts payable on our liquidation, dissolution
or winding-up, which may include provisions that such series will rank senior to our common stock with respect to dividends and
those distributions;
|
|
•
|
restrictions on the issuance of shares of the same series or any other class or series; or
|
|
•
|
voting rights, if any, of the holders of the series.
|
The issuance of preferred stock could adversely
affect, among other things, the voting power of holders of common stock and the likelihood that stockholders will receive dividend
payments and payments upon our liquidation, dissolution or winding up. The issuance of preferred stock could also have the effect
of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of us.
A prospectus supplement relating to any series
of preferred stock being offered will include specific terms related to the offering. They will include, where applicable:
|
•
|
the title and stated value of the series of preferred stock and the number of shares constituting
that series;
|
|

•
|
any listing of the series of shares of preferred stock on any securities exchange;
|
|
•
|
the terms and conditions, if applicable, upon which shares of preferred stock of the series will
be convertible into shares of preferred stock of another series or common stock, including the conversion price, or manner of calculating
the conversion price;
|
|
•
|
whether the preferred stock will be exchangeable into debt securities, and, if applicable, the
exchange period, the exchange price, or how it will be calculated, and under what circumstances it may be adjusted;
|
|
•
|
voting rights, if any, of the preferred stock;
|
|
•
|
restrictions on transfer, sale or other assignment, if any;
|
|
•
|
whether interests in shares of preferred stock of the series will be represented by global securities;
|
|
•
|
any other specific terms, preferences, rights, limitations or restrictions of the series of shares
of preferred stock;
|
|
•
|
a discussion of any material United States federal income tax consequences of owning or disposing
of the shares of preferred stock of the series;

a parity with the series of shares of preferred stock as to dividend rights and rights upon liquidation, dissolution or winding
up of our affairs.

this prospectus, the shares will be fully paid and nonassessable and will not have, or be subject to, any preemptive or similar
rights.
Indemnification of Officers and Directors
and Insurance
Our Bylaws provide for limitation of liability
of our directors and for indemnification of our directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted under Nevada law. Our directors
and officers may be liable for a breach or failure to perform their duties in accordance with Nevada law only if their breach or
failure to perform constitutes gross negligence, willful misconduct or intentional harm on our company or our stockholders. Our
directors may not be personally liable for monetary damages for action taken or failure to take action as a director except in
specific instances established by Nevada law.
In accordance with Nevada law, we may generally
indemnify a director or officer against liability incurred in a proceeding if he or she acted in good faith, and believed that
his or her conduct was in our best interest and that he or she had no reason to believe his or her conduct was unlawful. We may
not indemnify a director or officer if the person was adjudged liable to us or in the event it is adjudicated that the director
or officer received an improper personal benefit.
Under Nevada law, we will indemnify a director
or officer who is successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any proceeding, or in the defense of any claim, issue or
matter in the proceeding, to which he or she was a party because he or she is or was a director or an officer, as the case may
be, against reasonable expenses incurred by him or her in connection with the proceeding or claim with respect to which he or she
has been successful.
We maintain a directors’ and officers’
liability insurance policy which, subject to the limitations and exclusions stated therein, covers our directors and officers for
certain actions or inactions they may take or omit to take in their capacities as directors and officers.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities
arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to our directors, officers and controlling persons pursuant to the foregoing
provisions, or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as
expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.
The Company maintains general liability insurance
that covers certain liabilities of its directors and officers arising out of claims based on acts or omissions in their capacities
as directors or officers, including liabilities under the Securities Act. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under
the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers, or persons who control the Company, the Company has been informed that,
in the opinion of the Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore
unenforceable.
These provisions may discourage stockholders
from bringing a lawsuit against the Company’s directors for breach of their fiduciary duty, or may have the practical effect
in some cases of eliminating the Company’s stockholders’ ability to collect monetary damages from its directors and
officers. These provisions may also have the effect of reducing the likelihood of derivative litigation against directors and officers,
even though such an action, if successful, might otherwise benefit the Company and its stockholders. Furthermore, a stockholder’s
investment may be adversely affected to the extent the Company pays the costs of settlement and damage awards against directors
and officers pursuant to these indemnification provisions.
Authorized but Unissued Shares
Our authorized but unissued shares of common
stock and preferred stock will be available for future issuance without your approval. We may use additional shares for a variety
of purposes, including future public offerings to raise additional capital, to fund acquisitions and as employee compensation.
The existence of authorized but unissued shares of common stock and preferred stock could render more difficult or discourage an
attempt to obtain control of us by means of a proxy contest, tender offer, merger or otherwise.
Transfer Agent and Registrar
Our transfer agent and registrar is VStock
Transfer Company, Inc. located at 18 Lafayette Pl, Woodmere, New York 11598. Their telephone number is (212) 828-8436.
DESCRIPTION OF WARRANTS
The following description, together with the
additional information we may include in any applicable prospectus supplements and free writing prospectuses, summarizes the material
terms and provisions of the warrants that we may offer under this prospectus, which may consist of warrants to purchase common
stock or preferred stock and may be issued in one or more series. Warrants may be offered independently or together with common
stock or preferred stock offered by any prospectus supplement and may be attached to or separate from those securities. While the
terms we have summarized below will apply generally to any warrants that we may offer under this prospectus, we will describe the
particular terms of any series of warrants that we may offer in more detail in the applicable prospectus supplement and any applicable
free writing prospectus. The terms of any warrants offered under a prospectus supplement may differ from the terms described below.
However, no prospectus supplement will fundamentally change the terms that are set forth in this prospectus or offer a security
that is not registered and described in this prospectus at the time of its effectiveness.
We will issue the warrants under a warrant
agreement that we will enter into with a warrant agent to be selected by us. The warrant agent will act solely as an agent of ours
in connection with the warrants and will not act as an agent for the holders or beneficial owners of the warrants. We will file
as exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part or will incorporate by reference from a current report
on Form 8-K that we file with the SEC, the form of warrant agreement, including a form of warrant certificate, that describes the
terms of the particular series of warrants we are offering before the issuance of the related series of warrants. The following
summaries of material provisions of the warrants and the warrant agreements are subject to, and qualified in their entirety by
reference to, all the provisions of the warrant agreement and warrant certificate applicable to a particular series of warrants.
We urge you to read the applicable prospectus supplement and any applicable free writing prospectus related to the particular series
of warrants that we sell under this prospectus, as well as the complete warrant agreements and warrant certificates that contain
the terms of the warrants.

|
•
|
United States federal income tax consequences of holding or exercising the warrants;
|

•

the terms of the securities issuable upon exercise of the warrants; and

|

|
Before exercising their warrants, holders of
warrants will not have any of the rights of holders of the securities purchasable upon such exercise, including, in the case of
warrants to purchase common stock or preferred stock, the right to receive dividends, if any, or, payments upon our liquidation,
dissolution or winding up or to exercise voting rights, if any
Exercise of Warrants
Each warrant will entitle the holder to purchase
the securities that we specify in the applicable prospectus supplement at the exercise price that we describe in the applicable
prospectus supplement. Unless we otherwise specify in the applicable prospectus supplement, holders of the warrants may exercise
the warrants at any time up to the specified time on the expiration date that we set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement.
After the close of business on the expiration date, unexercised warrants will become void.
Holders of the warrants may exercise the warrants
by delivering the warrant certificate representing the warrants to be exercised together with specified information, and paying
the required amount to the warrant agent in immediately available funds, as provided in the applicable prospectus supplement. We
will set forth on the reverse side of the warrant certificate and in the applicable prospectus supplement the information that
the holder of the warrant will be required to deliver to the warrant agent.
Upon receipt of the required payment and the
warrant certificate properly completed and duly executed at the corporate trust office of the warrant agent or any other office
indicated in the applicable prospectus supplement, we will issue and deliver the securities purchasable upon such exercise. If
fewer than all of the warrants represented by the warrant certificate are exercised, then we will issue a new warrant certificate
for the remaining amount of warrants. If we so indicate in the applicable prospectus supplement, holders of the warrants may surrender
securities as all or part of the exercise price for warrants.
Enforceability of Rights by Holders
of Warrants
Each warrant agent will act solely as our agent
under the applicable warrant agreement and will not assume any obligation or relationship of agency or trust with any holder of
any warrant. A single bank or trust company may act as warrant agent for more than one issue of warrants. A warrant agent will
have no duty or responsibility in case of any default by us under the applicable warrant agreement or warrant, including any duty
or responsibility to initiate any proceedings at law or otherwise, or to make any demand upon us. Any holder of a warrant may,
without the consent of the related warrant agent or the holder of any other warrant, enforce by appropriate legal action its right
to exercise, and receive the securities purchasable upon exercise of, its warrants.
DESCRIPTION OF UNITS
The following description, together with the
additional information we may include in any applicable prospectus supplements and free writing prospectuses, summarizes the material
terms and provisions of the units that we may offer under this prospectus.
While the terms we have summarized below will
apply generally to any units that we may offer under this prospectus, we will describe the particular terms of any series of units
in more detail in the applicable prospectus supplement. The terms of any units offered under a prospectus supplement may differ
from the terms described below. However, no prospectus supplement will fundamentally change the terms that are set forth in this
prospectus or offer a security that is not registered and described in this prospectus at the time of its effectiveness.
We will file as exhibits to the registration
statement of which this prospectus is a part, or will incorporate by reference from a current report on Form 8-K that we file with
the SEC, the form of unit agreement that describes the terms of the series of units we are offering, and any supplemental agreements,
before the issuance of the related series of units. The following summaries of material terms and provisions of the units are subject
to, and qualified in their entirety by reference to, all the provisions of the unit agreement and any supplemental agreements applicable
to a particular series of units. We urge you to read the applicable prospectus supplements related to the particular series of
units that we sell under this prospectus, as well as the complete unit agreement and any supplemental agreements that contain the
terms of the units.
General
We may issue units comprised of one or more
shares of common stock, shares of preferred stock and warrants in any combination. Each unit will be issued so that the holder
of the unit is also the holder of each security included in the unit. Thus, the holder of a unit will have the rights and obligations
of a holder of each included security. The unit agreement under which a unit is issued may provide that the securities included
in the unit may not be held or transferred separately, at any time or at any time before a specified date.
We will describe in the applicable prospectus
supplement the terms of the series of units, including:
|
•
|
the designation and terms of the units and of the securities comprising the units, including whether
and under what circumstances those securities may be held or transferred separately;
|
|
•
|
any provisions of the governing unit agreement that differ from those described below; and
|
|
•
|
any provisions for the issuance, payment, settlement, transfer or exchange of the units or of the
securities comprising the units.
|
The provisions described in this section, as
well as those described under “Description of Capital Stock,” and “Description of Warrants” will apply
to each unit and to any common stock, preferred stock, debt security or warrant included in each unit, respectively.
Issuance in Series
We may issue units in such amounts and in numerous
distinct series as we determine.
Enforceability of Rights by Holders of
Units
Each unit agent will act solely as our agent
under the applicable unit agreement and will not assume any obligation or relationship of agency or trust with any holder of any
unit. A single bank or trust company may act as unit agent for more than one series of units. A unit agent will have no duty or
responsibility in case of any default by us under the applicable unit agreement or unit, including any duty or responsibility to
initiate any proceedings at law or otherwise, or to make any demand upon us. Any holder of a unit may, without the consent of the
related unit agent or the holder of any other unit, enforce by appropriate legal action its rights as holder under any security
included in the unit.
We, the unit agents and any of their agents
may treat the registered holder of any unit certificate as an absolute owner of the units evidenced by that certificate for any
purpose and as the person entitled to exercise the rights attaching to the units so requested, despite any notice to the contrary.
See “Legal Ownership of Securities.”
PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
We may sell the securities from time to time
pursuant to underwritten public offerings, direct sales to the public, negotiated transactions, block trades or a combination of
these methods. We may sell the securities to or through underwriters or dealers, through agents, or directly to one or more purchasers.
We may distribute securities from time to time in one or more transactions:
|
•
|
at a fixed price or prices, which may be changed;
|
|
•
|
at market prices prevailing at the time of sale;
|
|
•
|
at prices related to such prevailing market prices; or
|
A prospectus supplement or supplements (and
any related free writing prospectus that we may authorize to be provided to you) will describe the terms of the offering of the
securities, including, to the extent applicable:
|
•
|
the name or names of the underwriters, if any;
|
|
•
|
the purchase price of the securities or other consideration therefor, and the proceeds, if any,
we will receive from the sale;
|
|
•
|
any options under which underwriters may purchase additional securities from us;
|
|
•
|
any agency fees or underwriting discounts and other items constituting agents’ or underwriters’
compensation;
|
|
•
|
any public offering price;
|
|
•
|
any discounts or concessions allowed or reallowed or paid to dealers; and
|
|
•
|
any securities exchange or market on which the securities may be listed.
|
Only underwriters named in the prospectus supplement
will be underwriters of the securities offered by the prospectus supplement.
If underwriters are used in the sale, they
will acquire the securities for their own account and may resell the securities from time to time in one or more transactions at
a fixed public offering price or at varying prices determined at the time of sale. The obligations of the underwriters to purchase
the securities will be subject to the conditions set forth in the applicable underwriting agreement. We may offer the securities
to the public through underwriting syndicates represented by managing underwriters or by underwriters without a syndicate. Subject
to certain conditions, the underwriters will be obligated to purchase all of the securities offered by the prospectus supplement,
other than securities covered by any option to purchase additional securities from us. Any public offering price and any discounts
or concessions allowed or reallowed or paid to dealers may change from time to time. We may use underwriters with whom we have
a material relationship. We will describe in the prospectus supplement, naming the underwriter, the nature of any such relationship.
We may sell securities directly or through
agents we designate from time to time. We will name any agent involved in the offering and sale of securities and we will describe
any commissions we will pay the agent in the prospectus supplement. Unless the prospectus supplement states otherwise, our agent
will act on a best-efforts basis for the period of its appointment.
We may authorize agents or underwriters to
solicit offers by certain types of institutional investors to purchase securities from us at the public offering price set forth
in the prospectus supplement pursuant to delayed delivery contracts providing for payment and delivery on a specified date in the
future. We will describe the conditions to these contracts and the commissions we must pay for solicitation of these contracts
in the prospectus supplement.
We may provide agents and underwriters with
indemnification against civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“Securities
Act”), or contribution with respect to payments that the agents or underwriters may make with respect to these liabilities.
Agents and underwriters may engage in transactions with, or perform services for, us in the ordinary course of business.
All securities we may offer, other than common
stock, will be new issues of securities with no established trading market. Any underwriters may make a market in these securities,
but will not be obligated to do so and may discontinue any market making at any time without notice. We cannot guarantee the liquidity
of the trading markets for any securities.
Any underwriter may engage in over-allotment,
stabilizing transactions, short-covering transactions and penalty bids in accordance with Regulation M under the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”). Over-allotment involves sales in excess of the offering size, which create a short position.
Stabilizing transactions permit bids to purchase the underlying security so long as the stabilizing bids do not exceed a specified
maximum price. Syndicate-covering or other short-covering transactions involve purchases of the securities, either through exercise
of the over-allotment option or in the open market after the distribution is completed, to cover short positions. Penalty bids
permit the underwriters to reclaim a selling concession from a dealer when the securities originally sold by the dealer are purchased
in a stabilizing or covering transaction to cover short positions. Those activities may cause the price of the securities to be
higher than it would otherwise be. If commenced, the underwriters may discontinue any of the activities at any time.
Any underwriters or agents that are qualified
market makers on the Nasdaq Capital Market may engage in passive market making transactions in the common stock on the Nasdaq Capital
Market in accordance with Regulation M under the Exchange Act, during the business day prior to the pricing of the offering, before
the commencement of offers or sales of the common stock. Passive market makers must comply with applicable volume and price limitations
and must be identified as passive market makers. In general, a passive market maker must display its bid at a price not in excess
of the highest independent bid for such security; if all independent bids are lowered below the passive market maker’s bid,
however, the passive market maker’s bid must then be lowered when certain purchase limits are exceeded. Passive market making
may stabilize the market price of the securities at a level above that which might otherwise prevail in the open market and, if
commenced, may be discontinued at any time.
LEGAL MATTERS
The validity of the issuance of the securities
offered hereby will be passed upon for us by Carmel, Milazzo & Feil LLP located in New York, New York. Additional legal matters
may be passed upon for us or any underwriters, dealers or agents, by counsel that we will name in the applicable prospectus supplement.
