PART I
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
Overview
Worksport
Ltd., through its subsidiaries, designs, develops, manufactures,
and owns the IP on a variety of tonneau covers, solar integrations,
and NP (Non-Parasitic), Hydrogen-based true green energy solutions
for the sustainable, clean energy, and automotive industries.
Worksport Ltd. seeks to capitalize on the growing shift of consumer
mindsets towards clean energy integrations with its proprietary
solar solutions, mobile energy storage systems (ESS), and NP
(Non-Parasitic), Hydrogen-based technology.
Corporate History
The
Company was incorporated in the state of Nevada on April 2, 2003
under the name Franchise Holdings International, Inc.
(“FNHI”).
In
December 2014, FNHI acquired 100% of the outstanding equity of
Worksport Ltd., an Ontario, Canada corporation formed in 2011
(“Worksport Ontario”), pursuant to which Worksport Ontario became a
wholly-owned subsidiary of FNHI. Upon acquiring Worksport Ontario,
FNHI abandoned all previous business plans and has been focusing on
developing the tonneau business.
In
May 2020, FNHI changed its name to Worksport Ltd.
Terravis
Energy Inc. (“Terravis”) was incorporated in the State of Colorado
on May 24, 2021. On August 20, 2021, the Company was issued 100
shares of common stock at par value of $0.0001 per share,
representing 100% of the outstanding equity of Terravis. On January
20, 2022, Terravis issued an additional 9,999,900 shares of Common
Stock to Worksport Ltd. at a par value of $0.0001, representing

Public Offering
On
August 6, 2021, the Company consummated an underwritten public
offering (the “Public Offering”) of an aggregate of 3,272,727
units, pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-1, as amended
(File No. 333-256142) and a registration statement on Form S-1
(File No: 333-258429). The public offering price was $5.50 per unit
and each unit consisted of one share of common stock and one
warrant (“Public Warrant”) to purchase one share of common stock
for $6.05 per share (110% of the unit offering price) from the date
of issuance until the third anniversary of the issuance date. The
Company received gross proceeds of approximately $18.0 million from
the Public Offering, and after deducting the underwriting
commissions, discounts, and offering expenses payable by the
Company, the Company received net proceeds of approximately $16.1
million. The Company used the net proceeds for Working Capital,
R&D, Marketing, and Equipment.
Nasdaq Uplisting
In
connection with the Public Offering, the Company’s common stock and
Public Warrants commenced trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market
under the symbols “WKSP” and “WKSPW” since August 4, 2021. Prior to
the uplisting, the Company’s common stock was quoted on the OTCQB
Marketplace under the symbol, “WKSP.”
Products
We
have developed soft vinyl tonneau covers and hard aluminum tonneau
covers. Covers are offered in three or four-panel options. Once
installed, our tonneau covers latch against the bed of the truck
and fold up against the back window of the truck cab.
Our
current products include the SC (Soft Cover) line: SC3, SC3pro, and
SC4.
SC3
The
SC3 was Worksport’s first product introduced in 2011 and is fitted
with a powder coated lightweight aluminum frame and rear cam
latches. The tri-fold cover is ultra-violet (UV) protected vinyl
tri-layer material that seals around the truck bed with a rubber
gasket designed to protect cargo from moisture and
debris.

SC3pro
The
SC3pro was introduced in 2012 and has been upgraded from the SC3 to
include our patented “Smart Latch” system. The SC3pro offers the
same features as the SC3; however, the Smart Latch system allows
the operator to open the cover by simply pulling a release
cable.
SC4
The
SC4 began production in 2021 and is expected to launch in Q2 of
2022.We
believe that this will be the first vinyl wrapped tonneau cover to
fold in four sections. This cover will also allow its users full
bed access by being foldable upwards toward the rear window of the
truck. This cover will be more compact when folded parallel to the
back window of the truck which will reduce wind resistance and rear
window obstruction.
Products in Pre-Production
Worksport
is currently developing the following products:
TC3
The
TC3 is currently in the pre-production stage, estimated to launch
in the second quarter of 2022. The TC3 design will fold with three
sections, allowing 2/3 bed access. The cover will have one latching
point that is manually operated by the user. The cover panels will
be made from formed aluminum, ultra-strong 5052 alloy panels with a
matte black powder coated surface, for a durable finish.
Like
the SC3pro, TC3 will also offer a cable-operated latching system
that allows for one-sided operation by the user. Options on the TC3
will include expandable cargo division and storage
solutions.
Worksport: Terravis System
We
are currently developing a three-component system called the
Terravis System. The Terravis System is a first-of-its-kind mobile
power generator & energy storage system that consists of a
solar tonneau cover called the Worksport SOLIS, a portable core
battery called the Worksport COR, and an XCX Accessory Rail –
securely fixed to the truck’s bed with use of specially-designed
and patented clamps. The XCX system is used to secure the SOLIS
tonneau cover using our patented Pro Series latches and can be used
to secure additional accessories along with COR energy storage
system, COR batteries, and a solar controller.
The
Terravis System is capable of charging and storing up to 6kWh of
energy on the go. This energy can be used for emergencies, outdoor
activities, or work ranging from a contractor to drone operator.
The Terravis System’s integrated track systems can be used for a
variety of add-on options such as chrome trim, tie downs, cargo
cleats, textile storage bags, seating, cargo racks, sliding system
and others. Our sales efforts for our Terravis System will be
focused on the North American markets, for companies such as
Workhorse, Atlis, Bollinger, Hercules, as well as Toyota,
Stellantis, GM and Ford trucks.

Worksport
SOLIS
The
SOLIS Hybrid Solar Tonneau Cover is fitted with cutting edge
Monocrystalline solar panels, capable of generating up to 600 watts
of power. The SOLIS is based on our Tough Cover framework and can
provide up to 10 additional miles for EV pick-up trucks. This is
based on a 98kWh battery under optimal conditions at 85%
efficiency. Worksport SOLIS uses our TC (tough cover) design and
builds on it by integrating highly advanced solar panels. The solar
panels are secured to our 16 Gauge 5052 alloy panels both
mechanically and using specialized adhesives, and those panels
ensure our covers are extremely strong and durable. SOLIS allows
current pick-up truck owners to utilize sustainable energy through
advanced solar power technology to charge their COR energy storage
systems (ESS) and upcoming EVs. While folded over the bed of the
truck, the SOLIS is designed to charge power banks and portable
batteries, turning any truck into a mobile micro-grid power
station.
Worksport
COR
The
COR ESS (energy storage system) is a standalone product that can
use energy created from SOLIS, our solar cover, and utilize the
stored energy on the go, anywhere. Worksport COR is the most unique
portable battery system on the market today. Not only does COR
allow users to swap a depleted battery for a fully charged one, but
it does so without a drop in power output for up to 15s with a load
of 1800W. These innovations allow COR to go beyond a simple
lifestyle product for work and leisure, as it’s a tool that could
potentially save a life in the event of an emergency.
The
COR’s main battery, a Lithium Nickel Manganese Oxide (Li-MNC)
battery, boasts a capacity of 1534Wh while its Hot Swap Lithium
Iron Phosphate (Li-MNC) battery has a capacity of 78.6Wh. The COR’s
built-in inverter allows 2000W of power with an output voltage of
120V AC (frequency of 60Hz) and input voltage of 48V. The system
allows Bluetooth connection for monitoring and controlling the COR
and its external batteries.
Manufacturing
As of
December 31, 2021, all Worksport products were manufactured in a
facility located in Meizhou, China according to our specifications,
schematics and blueprints. We believe that production at the
factory can be increased within 30 days to facilitate volumes up to
ten times the current output without any adverse effects on quality
or craftsmanship.
We
are currently in the process of establishing manufacturing presence
within North America and are working towards closing on a property
in West Seneca, New York. Management and seller are under contract
for the property, and management plans to close on the property in
April of 2022 barring any unforeseen problems or delays. Management
believes that having manufacturing capability in North America will
increase quality control and production efficiency as well as lower
landed costs.
Intellectual Property
The
Company currently holds a broad collection of intellectual property
rights relating to certain aspects of its parts and accessories,
and services. This includes patents, trademarks, service marks, and
trade secrets. Although the Company believes the ownership of such
intellectual property rights is an important factor in its business
and that its success does depend in part on such ownership, the
Company relies primarily on the innovative skills, technical
competence and marketing abilities of its personnel.
Patents
Our
current intellectual portfolio consists of five (5) issued U.S.
utility patents, one (1) issued Canadian utility patent, and twenty
(20) pending patent applications: four (4) U.S. utility
applications, seven (7) U.S. provisional applications, seven (7)
U.S. design applications, and two (2) Canadian utility
applications. We also in the process of preparing several other
provisional and design patent applications.
Granted
U.S. patents will expire between 2032 and 2036, excluding any
patent term adjustment that might be available following the grant
of the patent. If issued, pending applications would expire in
2041, excluding any patent term adjustment that might be available
following the grant of the patent. Patents issued on the
provisional applications, if any, would expire in 2042, excluding
any patent term adjustment that might be available following the
grant of the patent.
All
patents issued to our Chief Executive Officer, Steven Rossi, have
been assigned to the Company or will be assigned to the Company
upon being issued by the USPTO.
Trademarks
The
Company has twenty-eight (28) trademarks in various states of
pending, registered and allowed in the United States, Canada,
China, European Union, Australia, New Zealand, and United
Kingdom.
Governmental Programs, Incentives and
Regulations
Globally,
both the operation of our business by us and the ownership of our
products by our customers are impacted by various government
programs, incentives and other arrangements. Our business and
products are also subject to numerous governmental regulations that
vary among jurisdictions.
Programs
and Incentives
We
are in the process of applying for several sales tax, energy, and
mortgage incentives, each containing their own sets of guidelines
and agreements by which we must abide in order to continue
receiving said incentives. While we are not currently bound by
these agreements, we expect these agreements to take effect in
2022.
Regulations
Our
portable power station (Worksport COR) is subject to various U.S.
and international regulations that govern transport of “dangerous
goods,” defined to include lithium-ion batteries, which may present
a risk in transportation. We plan to conduct testing to demonstrate
our compliance with such regulations.
We
use lithium-ion cells in our energy storage products. The use,
storage and disposal of our battery packs are regulated under
existing laws and are the subject of ongoing regulatory changes
that may add additional requirements in the future.
The Market
Our
revenue is directly proportional to sales of pickup trucks. The
following chart using SEMA1 data from 2021 shows sales
of specialty equipment retail sales of aftermarket automotive
accessories in the United States in billions from 2014, through
2020 and estimates those sales into 2024.

SEMA.
Automotive Specialty-Equipment Retail Sales Reach New High.
Retrieved from www.sema.org |

This
current growth trend is fueled by a decade average of strong
overall economic performance, including an ongoing decade average
decline in unemployment and growth in consumer spending. A strong
economy paired with rising consumer confidence suggest that
consumers are willing to spend capital on discretionary items, such
as specialty automotive parts. While new vehicle sales have leveled
off, they still remain at near-record highs—close to 15 million per
year. Recently announced tariffs on imported steel, aluminum, etc.
and other policy changes could affect the economy and the
automotive industry, however, demand continues to remain strong for
new pickup trucks in North America.
The
Statista Market Outlook suggests that pickup trucks will continue
to be the number one selling vehicle in North America. Pickup truck
upgrades are the largest sector of the specialty equipment
industry, accounting for 27% of total retail dollars (about $12.03
Billion). In the United States alone, there are over 158.6 million
registered light trucks. Despite the growth of crossover vehicles
(CUV) overall, full-size pickups remain the most common vehicle
subtype on the road today. This is likely driven by the continued
popularity of domestic half-ton pickups (e.g., Ford F-150,
Chevrolet Silverado, Ram 1500) throughout the United States,
especially in the U.S. southern states. Further, in 2021, roughly
75% of vehicles sold in the USA were light trucks.
While
there is increasing interest in electrification by automakers, less
than 1% of light vehicles are electrified thus far. This will be
the decade where mass adoption takes place. The electric pickup
truck market is very promising. Under the push of EV’s worldwide
and legal policies in states like California banning non-eco truck
sales by 2035, we believe that a sizable amount of customers will
be looking to purchase and upgrade to newer trucks. EV pickup truck
sales are suggested to grow at a 58% change of annual growth rate
(CAGR) between 2020 and 2030.
Of
the roughly 56 million pickups in the United States today, nearly
60% of them are either GM Full-Size or Ford F-Series, and account
for almost 12% of all vehicles on the road. The Ram Pickup is
third. All three brands are ideal target markets for our
products.
2021 New Pickup Truck Sales in the United States by Month (All
Models)
With
2021 year-end sales of approximately 726,000 units, the Ford
F-Series was the best-selling light truck in the United
States1. The Ford F-Series is a series of full-size
pickup trucks, the most popular variant being the
F-1501. The 14th generation of this model was released
in 2020.
Pickup
truck sales growth in the U.S. decreased in 2021 compared with
2020. U.S. pickup truck sales came to around 2.84 million units in
20212, compared to 2.96 million units in
20203. This decline is largely attributed to chip
shortages causing a decrease in trucks manufactured. With the
exception of Toyota pickups, light trucks built by U.S.-based
automakers continue to be favorites among U.S. vehicle
buyers.

Distribution
We
distribute our tonneau covers through wholesalers, private labels,
distributors, and online retail channels in Canada and the United
States. We will provide our tonneau covers through Original
Equipment Manufacturers and our own eCommerce platform.
The
specialty equipment (aftermarket) consists of three major types of
customers, which include master warehouse distributors, dealers and
wholesalers, and retail end consumers. Master warehouse
distributors stock and distribute products to their customers,
which are usually local dealers and wholesalers. Dealers and
wholesalers are local stores which sell products to some businesses
and retail consumers in their area and online. Dealers purchase
most of their products from their local distributor who deliver to
them regularly. Retail end consumers are simply the end users of
the products.
Competition
In
our estimation, for many years, consumers looking to purchase
tonneau covers have had a limited number of options available,
mostly including:
Soft
Folding & Roll-up covers (Vinyl covers);
Solid
one piece caps and lids (Plastic & Fiberglass);
Retractable
Covers (Plastic & Aluminum); and
Hard
Folding & Standing Covers (Aluminum and FRP).
Solid
one piece covers and retractable covers are the least desirable
because of their limited functionality and overall cost. We believe
that consumers want a less cumbersome tonneau cover with high
functionality and at a lower cost.
That
is why the most popular covers in today’s market are soft and hard
folding/rolling tonneau covers, and the biggest growth opportunity
in the tonneau cover market is the aggressively priced hard folding
tonneau cover market niche.
Our
largest competitor is Truck Hero, which has acquired upwards of 16
independent tonneau cover brands in North America. Truck Hero’s
products directly compete with our products. Our other competitors
include LEER, Access, Truck Covers USA and Paragon.
We
believe that by being independent, aggressively priced, innovative,
and operationally sound, we will be able to grow revenues with
minimal sales effort while continuing to develop our relationships
with our larger clients.
Furthermore,
we believe our Company is currently the only independent
Business-to-Business (B2B) producer of tonneau covers in the United
States and Canada that does not yet sell directly to customers
(B2C). Worksport believes that we can expand our current customer
base throughout our current and future markets and intends to enter
various B2C channels to boost sales of new products.
The
Company plans to expand to other markets outside the United States
and Canada. We intend to generate revenue in new markets including
but not limited to the automotive specialty equipment market and
global Original Equipment Manufacturers.
Our
goal is to become the leader in the tonneau cover market through
innovation. Our main objective is to design and engineer our
products to better suit today’s new, dynamic, and innovative models
of light trucks and electric trucks, whether that be through
Worksport’s Terravis System or through innovations within its
subsidiary, Terravis Energy, Inc.
Research and Development
We
will spend for research and development activities on an ongoing
basis. The company is actively acquiring new engineering and design
assets, both in-house and third-party. The Company’s subsidiary,
Terravis Energy, Inc., researches green energy solutions for home
and community power as well as Electric Vehicle DC charging. Much
of the Company’s research and development is focused on hydrogen
fuel cell power, which serves as a strong basis for
grid-independent power solutions.
Environmental Compliance
We
are committed to high environmental standards and carry out our
activities and operations in compliance with all relevant and
applicable environmental regulations and best industry practices.
Costs of environmental regulatory compliance are not expected to be
significant.

COVID-19
The
outbreak of the coronavirus, specifically identified as “COVID-19,”
has resulted in governments worldwide enacting emergency measures
to combat the spread of the virus. These measures, which include
the implementation of travel bans, self-imposed quarantine periods
and social distancing, have caused material disruption to
businesses globally resulting in an economic slowdown. Global
equity markets have experienced significant volatility and
weakness. Governments and central banks have reacted with
significant monetary and fiscal interventions designed to stabilize
economic conditions. The duration and impact of the COVID-19
outbreak is unknown at this time, as is the efficacy of the
government and central bank interventions.
Additionally,
while the potential economic impact brought by, and the duration of
the COVID-19 pandemic is difficult to assess or predict, the impact
of the COVID-19 pandemic on the global financial markets may reduce
our ability to access capital, which could negatively impact our
short-term and long-term liquidity. The ultimate impact of the
COVID-19 pandemic is highly uncertain and subject to change. We do
not yet know the full extent of potential delays or impacts on our
business, financing or the global economy as a whole. However,
these effects could have a material impact on our liquidity,
capital resources, operations and business and those of the third
parties on which we rely. The management and board of the Company
is constantly monitoring this situation to minimize potential
losses.
Business Overview
Inflation
In an
inflationary economy, Worksport benefits from debt financing. While
Worksport ended December 31, 2021 with little to no long term debt,
Worksport is currently in the process of securing a mortgage for
its West Seneca production facility. Worksport has the benefit of
mortgaging the facility in a low interest rate environment –
locking in a lower rate – while also benefiting from the lower real
cost of mortgage payments in an inflationary
environment.
Such
an inflationary environment also increases Worksport’s costs,
however. These costs include direct costs such as the cost of raw
goods or processed goods for its OEM manufacturing as well as
indirect costs such as overhead and rent. Due to these forecasted
price increases and the high increases in ocean freight and
container handling costs as a result of 2021 supply chain issues,
Worksport has updated its product pricing for 2022.
Gasoline Prices and Supply Chain Issues
Worksport
has faced significantly higher ocean freight, trucking, and
container handling costs in 2021 than it did in previous years.
Further, last mile delivery costs have recently increased – all of
which have increased the Company’s products’ landed costs. This
more recent rise in gasoline prices has worsened these costs, and
the Company is operating under the assumption these higher costs
will remain throughout 2022.
Worksport’s transition towards Made in America manufacturing will
largely offset these higher costs, as the Company will be less
exposed to higher international shipping costs. Worksport is also
identifying North American suppliers of its products’ components
and will prioritize transport by rail when possible to avoid high
trucking costs.
Rising Popularity of Electric Vehicles
Electric Vehicles (EVs) have been exponentially increasing in
consumer interest, whether that interest take the form of vehicle
pre-orders, sales, or investments. As Worksport begins marketing
its Terravis SOLIS and COR, the Company plans to market the SOLIS
as a must-have accessory for electric light duty vehicle owners
while simultaneously riding the coattails of EV popularity to
promote its other products (COR and conventional tonneau covers) to
the very large population of Americans that have an interest in EVs
without the funds to purchase them. Further, participating in the
EV space allows the Company to target consumers with an interest in
cutting-edge technologies – a great market to which to promote its
COR.
Regulatory Environment Favoring Electric Vehicles
The Build Back Better Bill was a strong indication of upcoming and
favorable USA regulations. Any regulation that improves North
America’s Electric Vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure or provide
grants to businesses operating in the EV space will benefit
Worksport. While the Company is primarily focused on the light duty
vehicle market, it is the only existing participant in the
electric-specific, light duty vehicle aftermarket accessories
market and, therefore, is positioned to benefit greatly from any
bill that increases the prevalence of electric light duty
vehicles.
Limited Competitive Landscape
Worksport’s conventional tonneau covers are engineered for enhanced
user experience and resistance to wear-and-tear, making them strong
and competitive products in an otherwise consolidated and saturated
market. The Terravis COR, however, operates in a much wider yet
unsaturated market. The global Portable Power Station market is
quickly growing, and the competitive landscape is far from
consolidated. The solar tonneau cover market is in its infancy, and
it’s a market in which the Company has first-mover advantage. To
ensure it does not fall behind future competitors, the Company is
highly focused on protecting its intellectual property both
domestically and abroad.
Results of Operations
Revenue
For
the year ended December 31, 2021, revenues from the entire line of
Worksport products were $303,750, as compared to $346,144 for the
year ended, December 31, 2020. The year over year sales decreased
by approximately 12% due to the Company shifting its focus to
building up its inventory to mitigate against potential supply
chain issues in anticipation of launching its e-commerce platform,
while it repositions to domestic manufacturing.
For
the year ended December 31, 2021, revenue generated in Canada was
$40,683, as compared to $28,917 for the same period in 2020, an
increase of 41%. For the year ended December 31, 2021, revenue
generated in the United States was $263,067, compared to $317,227
for the same period in 2020. This represents a decrease in
US-source revenue of approximately 17% year-over-year. Similar to
above, the decrease in revenue was a result of the Company shifting
its focus to building up its inventory to mitigate against
potential supply chain issues in anticipation of launching its
e-commerce platform, while it repositions to domestic
manufacturing. In addition, increase cost of shipping and delivery
as a result of supply chain disruption, gas prices and inflation
contributing to overall sales decrease for fiscal 2021.
Sales
from online retailers of the Worksport products decreased from
$337,053 in 2020 to $263,116 in 2021, a decrease of 22%. Online
retailers accounted for 87% of total revenue for the year ended
December 31, 2021, compared to 90% for the year ended December 31,
2020. Distributor sales increased for the year ended December 31,
2021 compared with the year ended December 31, 2020 with sales of
$40,349 and $29,699, respectively. Worksport expects to continue to
grow its fields of business as it develops unique and non-competing
products to offer to other prospective clients in the US and
Canadian markets.
Currently,
Worksport works closely with one distributor in Canada, along with
its own contracted distribution and inventory facility in
Breinigsville, PA and Depew, NY. This does not include multiple
independent online retailers.
Although
Worksport currently supports a total of nine dealers and
distributors, Worksport will return to a focus on online sales with
new inventory being received in the US market for 2021. Worksport
continues to believe the trend of increasing sales through online
retailers will continue to outpace the traditional distribution
business model. Moreover, reputable online retailers’ customers
tend to provide larger sales volumes, greater margin of profit, and
greater protection against price erosion.
Cost of Sales
Cost
of sales increased by 17%, from $298,996 for the year ended
December 31, 2020 to $350,702 for the year ended December 31, 2021.
The Company’s cost of sales, as a percentage of sales, was
approximately 115% and 86% for the years ended December 31, 2021
and 2020, respectively. The increase in percentage of sales
resulted in a gross margin decrease from 14% for the year ended
December 31, 2020 to negative 15% for the year ended December 31,
2021. The increase in cost of sales as a percentage of sales and
decrease in gross margin was primarily due to increased cost
associated with acquiring and selling inventory translating to
increased cost of sales for the year ended December 31, 2021,
compared to the prior year.
Within
cost of sales, shipping and freight costs accounted for 79% of cost
of sales during the year ended December 31, 2021, whereas in 2020,
it accounted for 28% of cost of sales. This increase is primarily
attributed to an increase in international shipping expense due to
supply chain issues and rising oil prices as well as increase in
sales volume resulting in higher overall shipping and freight
cost.
Worksport
provides its distributors and online retailers an “all-in”
wholesale price. This includes any import duty charges, taxes and
shipping charges. Discounts are applied if the distributor or
retailer chooses to use their own shipping process. Certain
exceptions apply on rare occasions where product is shipped outside
the contiguous United Sates or from the United States to Canada.
Volume discounts are also offered to certain higher volume
customers. Worksport also offers a “dock price” or “pickup
program,” where clients are able to pick up product directly from
one of Worksport stocking warehouses.
Operating Expenses
Operating
expenses increased for year ended December 31, 2021 by $6,481,392,
from $1,033,387 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020 to $7,514,779 for the fiscal
year ended December 31, 2021, due to the following
factors.
|
● |
General
and administrative expense increased by $1,653,309 from $201,929
for 2020 to $1,855,238 for 2021. The increase was related to
research and development and salaries as the Company seeks to
expand its operations and further develop its products. |
|
● |
Sales
and marketing expenses increased by $1,238,684, from $148,008 for
2020 to $1,386,692 for 2021. The increase in sales and marketing is
a result of building brand and product awareness. |
|
● |
Professional
fees which include accounting, legal and consulting fees, increased
from $679,654 in 2020 to $4,268,684 in 2021. The increase was due
to the employment of various third-party consultants to help expand
the Company’s business operations and in connection with the
Company’s underwritten public offering of common stock and warrants
in August 2021. |
|
● |
The
Company realized a loss on foreign exchange of $4,165 during 2021,
an increase of $369 compared to $3,796 during 2020. |
Other Income and Expenses
Other
income and expenses for the year ended December 31, 2021 was
$335,354, compared to $201,381 the prior year, representing an
increase of $133,973. The difference can be attributed to the
Company recognizing a gain on settlement of debt in the prior year
and recognition of bad debt for 2021.
Net Loss
Net
loss for the year ended December 31, 2021 was $7,897,085, compared
to a net loss of $1,187,620 for the year ended December 31, 2020,
an increase of 565%. The increase in the net loss can be attributed
to the increase of various operating expenses as the Company
focuses on expanding its operations, research and development
programs and manufacturing and supply chains.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of
December 31, 2021, the Company had $28,567,333 in cash, restricted
cash and cash equivalents. The Company has generated only limited
revenues and has relied primarily upon capital generated from
public and private offerings of its securities. Since the Company’s
acquisition of Worksport in fiscal 2014, it has never generated a
profit. As of December 31, 2021 the Company had an accumulated
deficit of $20,849,805.
To
date, the Company’s principal sources of liquidity consisted net
proceeds from public and private securities offerings and cash
exercises of outstanding warrants. During the year ended December
31, 2021 the Company received $32,852,630 of proceeds from public
offerings, private placement offering and exercises of warrants net
of share issuance costs. During the year ended December 31, 2021,
the Company made repayments of $62,905 of promissory notes. The
Company believes its current cash balances coupled with anticipated
cash flow from operating activities will be sufficient to meet its
working capital requirements for at least one year from the date of
issuance of the accompanying consolidated financial
statements.
Based
on current internal projections, the Company believes it has and/or
will generate sufficient cash for its operational needs, for at
least one year from the date of issuance of the accompanying
consolidated financial statements. Management is focused on growing
the Company’s existing product offerings, as well as its customer
base, to increase its revenues. The Company cannot give assurance
that it can increase its cash balances or limit its cash
consumption and thus maintain sufficient cash balances for its
planned operations or future business developments. Future business
development and demands may lead to cash utilization at levels
greater than recently experienced. The Company may need to raise
additional capital in the future. However, the Company cannot
assure that it will be able to raise additional capital on
acceptable terms, or at all. Subject to the foregoing, management
believes that the Company has sufficient capital and liquidity to
fund its operations for at least one year from the date of issuance
of the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
Public Underwritten Offering
On
August 6, 2021, the Company consummated an underwritten public
offering (the “Public Offering”) of an aggregate of 3,272,727
units, pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-1, as amended
(File No. 333-256142) and a registration statement on Form S-1
(File No: 333-258429). The public offering price was $5.50 per unit
and each unit consisted of one share of common stock and one
warrant (“Public Warrant”) to purchase one share of common stock
for $6.05 per share (110% of the unit offering price) from the date
of issuance until the third anniversary of the issuance date. The
Company received gross proceeds of approximately $18.0 million from
the Public Offering, and after deducting the underwriting
commissions, discounts, and offering expenses payable by the
Company, the Company received net proceeds of approximately $16.1
million. The Company used the net proceeds for Working Capital,
R&D, Marketing, and Equipment.

A/Tier 2 public offering pursuant to a Form 1-A (File No: 24-11271)
qualified by the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 9,
2020 (the “Reg A Offering”). Each unit consisted of one share of
common stock and one warrant to purchase one share of common stock
for $4.00 per share during the 12 months following the date of
issuance. The gross proceeds from the sale of units were
$3,048,199. As of December 31, 2021, the Company received

December 31, 2021, an increase of $27,459,521 or 2.487%. The
increase in cash was primarily due to warrants exercises, public
offerings and private placement offerings which generated of
approximately $32,000,000.

Operating Activities
Net
cash used by operating activities for the year ended December 31,
2021 was $4,046,705, compared to $695,112 in the prior year,
primarily driven by a larger net loss in 2021 and partially offset
by the issuance of shares, options, and warrants for services. In
addition, the following contributed to the balance of net cash used
in operating activities:
Accounts receivable increased at December 31, 2020 by $119,813 and
December 31, 2021 by $2,228, which reduced cashflow from operations
to their respective years

Critical Accounting Policies
Our
discussion and analysis of results of operations and financial
condition are based upon our consolidated financial statements,
which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation
of these consolidated financial statements requires us to make
estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets,
liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities. We evaluate our estimates on an
ongoing basis, including those related to provisions for
uncollectible accounts receivable, inventories, valuation of
intangible assets and contingencies and litigation. We base our
estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions
that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the
results of which form the basis for making judgments about the
carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily
apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these
estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
The
accounting policies that we follow are set forth in Note 3 to our
financial statements as included in this annual report. These
accounting policies conform to accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States and have been consistently applied in
the preparation of the financial statements.

Opinion
on the Financial Statements
We
have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of
Worksport, LTD (the Company) as of December 31, 2021, and 2020, and
the related statements of operations and comprehensive loss,
stockholders’ equity (deficit), and cash flows for each of the
years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2021, and the
related notes (collectively referred to as the financial
statements). In our opinion, the financial statements present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the
Company as of December 31, 2021, and 2020, and the results of its
operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two-year
period ended December 31, 2021, in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of
America.
Basis
for Opinion
These
financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the
Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public
accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting
Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be
independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S.
federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of
the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We
conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB.
Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements
are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud.
The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to
perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting.
As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding
of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the
purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the
Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly,
we express no such opinion.
Our
audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of
material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to
error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those
risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis,
evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management, as
well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial
statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.
Critical
Audit Matters
The
critical audit matters (CAM) communicated below are matters arising
from the current period audit of the consolidated financial
statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to
the audit committee and that (i) relate to accounts or disclosures
that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (ii)
involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex
judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not
alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial
statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the
critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the
critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which
they relate.
Equity Transactions and Conversion of Debt
Securities
As
discussed in Note 8, 9, 10, and 22 to the financial statements, the
Company has issued a significant amount of equity securities, many
of which were issued to settle its promissory notes and convertible
notes payable. Many of the notes are issued with original issuance
discounts and with warrants which are valued and recorded as a
discount to the notes. The tracking of these transactions can be
complicated and require management to estimate the value of equity
securities using a Black Sholes option pricing model.
We
identified the fair market value of debt and equity transactions
and related conversions to be a critical audit matter. The
calculations can be complex and subject to error.
To
address this critical audit matter, we gained an understanding of
Management’s process to record the equity and debt transactions. We
obtained their calculations and tested its clerical accuracy and
the inputs. We agreed the basic terms to source agreements and
considered key assumptions. Finally, we recalculated the recorded
values and conversion amounts.

Significant Accounting
Policies
Cash and Cash Equivalents - Cash and cash equivalents
includes cash on account and demand deposits with maturities of
three months or less.
Receivables - Trade accounts receivable are stated at
the amount the Company expects to collect. Receivables are reviewed
individually for collectability. If the financial condition of the
Company’s customers were to deteriorate, adversely affecting their
ability to make payments, allowances may be required.
The
Company offers credit terms on the sale of the Company’s products
to a significant majority of the Company’s customers and requires
no collateral from these customers. The Company performs ongoing
credit evaluations of customers’ financial condition and maintains
an allowance for doubtful accounts receivable based upon the
Company’s historical experience and a specific review or accounts
receivable at the end of each period. As at December 31, 2021 and
2020, the Company had no allowance
for doubtful accounts.
Inventory - Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or
net realizable value, with cost being determined by a weighted
average basis. Cost includes the cost of materials plus direct
labor applied to the product.
Warranties - The Company offers limited warranties
against defective products. Customers who are not satisfied with
their purchase may attempt to have their purchases reimbursed
outside past the warranty period.
Revenue
Recognition –
In
accordance with ASC 606 Revenue from Contracts with Customers,
sales are recognized when products are shipped, with no right of
return but reimbursement maybe offered for defective products and
the title and risk of loss has passed to unaffiliated customers or
when they are delivered based on the terms of the sale, there is an
identifiable contract with a customer with defined performance
obligations, the transaction price is determinable, and the entity
has fulfilled its performance obligation. Revenue related to
shipping and handling costs billed to customers is included in net
sales and the related shipping and handling costs are included in
cost of products sold.
Property
and Equipment -
Capital
assets are recorded at cost and are depreciated using the
straight-line method over the following estimated useful
lives:

Share-based payments - The Company offers a share option
plan for its directors, officers, employees and consultants. ASC
718 “Compensation – Stock Compensation” prescribes accounting
and reporting standards for all share-based payment transactions in
which employee services are acquired. Transactions include
incurring liabilities, or issuing or offering to issue shares,
options, and other equity instruments such as employee stock
ownership plans and stock appreciation rights. Share-based payments
to employees, including grants of employee stock options, are
recognized as compensation expense in the financial statements
based on their fair values. That expense is recognized over the
period during which an employee is required to provide services in
exchange for the award, known as the requisite service period
(usually the vesting period).
Measurement
of share-based payment transactions with non-employees is based on
the fair value of whichever is more reliably measurable: (a) the
goods or services received; or (b) the equity instruments issued.
The fair value of the share-based payment transaction is determined
at the earlier of the performance commitment date or performance
completion date.
Income Taxes - Provisions for income taxes are based on
taxes payable or refundable for the current year and deferred taxes
on temporary differences between the amount of taxable income and
pretax financial income, and between the tax bases of assets and
liabilities and their reported amounts in the financial statements.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are included in the
consolidated financial statements at currently enacted income tax
rates applicable to the period in which the deferred tax assets and
liabilities are expected to be realized or settled as prescribed in
FASB ASC 740. As changes in tax laws or rates are enacted, deferred
tax assets and liabilities are adjusted through the provision for
income taxes.
Tax

Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Foreign Currency Translation - Transactions denominated
in foreign currencies are initially recorded in the functional
currency using exchange rates in effect at the dates of the
transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in
foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency
using at the historical exchange rates in effect at the dates of
the transactions. All exchange gains and losses are included in the
statement of operations and comprehensive loss.
Financial
Instruments - Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (FASB)
Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 825, Disclosures about Fair
Value of Financial Instruments, requires disclosures of the fair
value of financial instruments. The carrying value of the Company’s
current financial instruments, which include cash and cash
equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued
liabilities and shareholder loan, approximates their fair values
because of the short-term maturities of these
instruments.
Measurement
- The Company initially measures its financial instrument at
fair value, except for certain non-arm’s length transactions. The
Company subsequently measures all its financial assets and
financial liabilities at amortized cost, except for investments in
equity instruments that are quoted in an active market, which are
measured at fair value. Changes in fair value are recognized in
earnings for the period in which they occur.
Financial
assets measured at amortized cost include cash and cash
equivalents, accounts receivable, related party receivable, other
receivables and share subscriptions receivable. Financial
liabilities measured at amortized cost include accounts payable and
accrued liabilities, and promissory note payable.
Related Party Transactions - All transactions with related
parties are in the normal course of operations and are measured at
the exchange amount.
Intangible Assets and Impairment – Patents and other
intangibles are amortized using the straight-line method over their
estimated useful lives. Intangible assets, such as trademarks with
indefinite live are not amortized. Intangible assets are evaluated
for impairment at least annually or when events or circumstances
arise that indicate the existence of impairment. The Company
evaluates the recoverability of identifiable intangible assets
whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that an
intangible asset’s carrying amount may not be recoverable. When
indicators of impairment exist, the Company measures the carrying
amount of the asset against the estimated undiscounted future cash
flows associated with it. Should the sum of the expected future
cash flows be less than the carrying value of the asset being
evaluated, an impairment loss would be recognized. The impairment
loss would be calculated as the amount by which the carrying value
of the asset exceeds its fair value. The evaluation of asset
impairment requires the Company to make assumptions about future
cash flows over the life of the asset being evaluated. These
assumptions require significant judgment and actual results may
differ from assumed and estimated amounts. During the years ended
December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company had no
impairment losses related to intangible assets.
Lease Accounting - On January 1, 2019, the Company adopted
the new accounting standards ASC 842 that requires lessees to
recognize operating leases on the balance sheet as right-of-use
assets and lease liabilities based on the value of the discounted
future lease payments. Expanded disclosures about the nature and
terms of lease agreements are required prospectively and are
included in Note 18.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In
October 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-08, Accounting for
Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with
Customers (Topic 805). This ASU requires an acquirer in a business
combination to recognize and measure contract assets and contract
liabilities (deferred revenue) from acquired contracts using the
revenue recognition guidance in Topic 606. At the acquisition date,
the acquirer applies the revenue model as if it had originated the
acquired contracts. The ASU is effective for annual periods
beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within
those fiscal years. Adoption of the ASU should be applied
prospectively. Early adoption is also permitted, including adoption
in an interim period. If early adopted, the amendments are applied
retrospectively to all business combinations for which the
acquisition date occurred during the fiscal year of adoption.
Management is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this
new guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements and
does not anticipate a material impact.
In
November 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-10, Government
Assistance (Topic 832). This ASU requires business entities to
disclose information about government assistance they receive if
the transactions were accounted for by analogy to either a grant or
a contribution accounting model. The disclosure requirements
include the nature of the transaction and the related accounting
policy used, the line items on the balance sheets and statements of
operations that are affected and the amounts applicable to each
financial statement line item and the significant terms and
conditions of the transactions. The ASU is effective for annual
periods beginning after December 15, 2021. The disclosure
requirements can be applied either retrospectively or prospectively
to all transactions in the scope of the amendments that are
reflected in the financial statements at the date of initial
application and new transactions that are entered into after the
date of initial application. Management is currently evaluating the
impact the adoption of this new guidance will have on its
consolidated financial statements and does not anticipate a
material impact.

These net
operating loss carryforwards of approximately $10,197,000 may be
offset against future taxable income for the years 2022 through
2041. No tax benefit from continuing or discontinued
operations have been reported in the December 31, 2021 consolidated
financial statements since the potential tax benefit is offset by a
valuation allowance of the same amount.
Due
to change in ownership provisions of the Tax Reform Act of 1986,
net operation loss carryforwards for Federal income tax reporting
purposes are subject to annual limitations. Should a change in
ownership occur, net operating loss carryforwards may be limited as
to use in future years.
The
Company complies with the provisions of FASB ASC 740 in accounting
for its uncertain tax positions. ASC 740 addresses the
determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be
claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the financial
statements. Under ASC 740, the Company may recognize the tax
benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely
that not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by
the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the
position. The Company has determined that the Company has no
significant uncertain tax positions requiring recognition under ASC
740.
The
Company recognizes interest accrued related to unrecognized tax
benefits in interest expense and penalties in operating expenses.
The Company had no accruals for interest and tax penalties at
December 31, 2021 and 2020.
The
Company does not expect the amount of unrecognized tax benefits to
materially change within the next twelve months.
The
Company is required to file income tax returns in the U.S. and
Canadian Federal jurisdictions, as well as the states of New York,
New Jersey, and Utah and in the province of Ontario. The Company is
no longer subject to income tax examinations by tax authorities for
tax years ending before December 31, 2018.

Financial
Instruments
Credit
Risk

balances. The Company incurred bad debt expense of $62,329
during
the year ended December 31, 2021 and $0
for
the year ended December 31, 2020.

Financial Instruments (continued)
Liquidity
Risk
Liquidity
risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its
obligations associated with financial liabilities. The Company
relies on cash flows generated from operations, as well as
injections of capital through the issuance of the Company’s capital
stock to settle its liabilities when they become due.
Interest
Rate Risk
The
Company is not exposed to significant interest rate risk due to the
short-term maturity of its monetary current assets and current
liabilities.
Concentration
of Supplier Risk
The
Company purchases all of its inventory from one supplier source in
Asia. The Company carries significant strategic inventories of
these materials to reduce the risk associated with this
concentration of suppliers. Strategic inventories are managed based
on demand. To date, the Company has been able to obtain adequate
supplies of the materials used in the production of its products in
a timely manner from existing sources. The loss of this key
supplier or a delay in shipments could have an adverse effect on
its business.
Concentration
of Customer Risk
The
following table includes the percentage of the Company’s sales to
significant customers for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2021
and 2020. A customer is considered to be significant if they
account for greater than 10% of the Company’s annual
sales:

Stock
Options
Under
the Company’s Equity Incentive Plan the number of common
shares reserved for issuance under the option plan shall not exceed
10% of the issued and outstanding common shares of the Company,
have a maximum term of 10 years and vest at the
discretion of the Board of Directors.
All
equity-settled share-based payments are ultimately recognized as an
expense in the statement of operations and comprehensive loss with
a corresponding credit to “Additional Paid in Capital.” If vesting
periods or other non-market vesting conditions apply, the expense
is allocated over the vesting period, based on the best available
estimate of the number of share options expected to vest. Estimates
are subsequently revised if there is any indication that the number
of share options expected to vest differs from previous estimates.
Any cumulative adjustment prior to vesting is recognized in the
current period. No adjustment is made to any expense recognized in
prior periods if share options ultimately exercised are different
to that estimated on vesting.
On December 29, 2021 the Company granted 400,000 and 300,000 performance stock
units (“PSU”) to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and a
director, respectively. The PSU will vest in
5% increments according to a schedule that correlates with the

Notes
to the Consolidated Financial Statements
December
31, 2021 and 2020
24.
COVID-19
The
outbreak of the coronavirus, specifically identified as “COVID-19,”
has resulted in governments worldwide enacting emergency measures
to combat the spread of the virus. These measures, which include
the implementation of travel bans, self-imposed quarantine periods
and social distancing, have caused material disruption to
businesses globally resulting in an economic slowdown. Global
equity markets have experienced significant volatility and
weakness. Governments and central banks have reacted with
significant monetary and fiscal interventions designed to stabilize
economic conditions. The duration and impact of the COVID-19
outbreak is unknown at this time, as is the efficacy of the
government and central bank interventions.
Additionally,
while the potential economic impact brought by, and the duration of
the COVID-19 pandemic is difficult to assess or predict, the impact
of the COVID-19 pandemic on the global financial markets may reduce
our ability to access capital, which could negatively impact our
short-term and long-term liquidity. The ultimate impact of the
COVID-19 pandemic is highly uncertain and subject to change. We do
not yet know the full extent of potential delays or impacts on our
business, financing or the global economy as a whole. However,
these effects could have a material impact on our liquidity,
capital resources, operations and business and those of the third
parties on which we rely. The management and board of the Company
is constantly monitoring this situation to minimize potential
losses.
25.
Subsequent Events
The
Company has evaluated subsequent events through March 31, 2022
which is the date the financial statements were available to be
issued and the following events after year end occurred:
|
● |
On
February 17, 2022, Worksport appointed Tom DiNanno to its Board of

respectively. |

ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON
ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE
None
ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.
We
maintain disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules
13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Disclosure controls
and procedures are controls and other procedures designed to ensure
that the information required to be disclosed by us in the reports
that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded,
processed, summarized and reported within the time periods
specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and
procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures
designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us
in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is
accumulated and communicated to our management, including our
principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, as
appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required
disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and
procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures,
no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only
reasonable and not absolute assurance of achieving the desired
control objectives, and management necessarily applies its judgment
in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls
and procedures.
Based
on our management’s evaluation (with the participation of the
individuals serving as our principal executive officer and
principal financial officer) of our disclosure controls and
procedures as required by Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the
Exchange Act, each of the individuals serving as our principal
executive officer and principal financial officer has concluded
that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at
the reasonable assurance level as of December 31, 2021, the end of
the period covered by this report.
Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial
Reporting.
Our
management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate
internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules
13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act). Internal control over
financial reporting is a process designed under the supervision and
with the participation of our management, including the individuals
serving as our principal executive officer and principal financial
officer, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability
of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements
for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America.
A
material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies,
in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a
reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of annual or
interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a
timely basis.
Management
conducted an assessment of the effectiveness of our internal
control over financial reporting based on the criteria set forth by
the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway
Commission in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013
Framework). Based on this assessment, our management concluded
that, as of December 31, 2021, our internal control over financial
reporting was not effective based on those criteria due to material
weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting
described below.
Material Weakness in Internal Control over Financial
Reporting
We
did not design written policies and procedures at a sufficient
level of precision to support the operating effectiveness of the
controls to prevent and detect potential errors. We also did not
maintain adequate documentation to evidence the operating
effectiveness of certain control activities. Lastly, we did not
maintain appropriate access to certain systems and did not maintain
appropriate segregation of duties related to processes associated
within those systems.
These
control deficiencies resulted in several immaterial misstatements
to the preliminary financial statements that were corrected and/or
deemed immaterial in the aggregate prior to issuance of the
financial statements. These control deficiencies create a
reasonable possibility that a material misstatement to the
financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely
basis, and there we concluded that the deficiencies represent
material weaknesses in our internal control over financial
reporting and our internal control over financial reporting was not
effective as of December 31, 2021.
Remediation Plan
During
the year ended December 31, 2021, we continued to enhance our
internal control over financial reporting in an effort to remediate
the material weaknesses described above.
Our
remediation process includes, but not limited to:
|
● |
Investing
in IT systems to enhance our operational and financial reporting
and internal controls. |
|
● |
Enhancing
the organizational structure to support financial reporting
processes and internal controls. |
|
● |
Providing
guidance, education and training to employees relating to our
accounting policies and procedures. |
|
● |
Further
developing and documenting detailed policies and procedures
regarding business processes for significant accounts, critical
accounting policies and critical accounting estimates. |
|
● |
Establishing
effective general controls over IT systems to ensure that
information produced can be relied upon by process level controls
is relevant and reliable. |
We
expect to remediate these material weaknesses in the first half of
2022. However, we may discover additional material weaknesses that
may require additional time and resources to remediate.
Attestation Report on Internal Control over Financial
Reporting.
This
Annual Report on Form 10-K does not include an attestation report
of our independent registered public accounting firm due to the
deferral allowed under the Jobs Act for emerging growth
companies.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial
Reporting
Other
than with respect to the remediation efforts discussed above, there
was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that
occurred during the fourth quarter of 2021 that has materially
affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our
internal control over financial reporting. Although we have altered
some work routines due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the changes in our
work environment, including remote work arrangements, have not
materially impacted our internal controls over financial reporting
and have not adversely affected the Company’s ability to maintain
operations.

However, as of the date hereof, the Company has not retained such a
consultant.

Meetings of the Board of Directors
During
its fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, the Board met from time to
time informally and acted by written consent on numerous
occasions.
Indemnification and Limitation on Liability of
Directors
Our
articles of incorporation limit the liability of our directors to
the fullest extent permitted by Nevada law. Nothing contained in
the provisions will be construed to deprive any director of his
right to all defenses ordinarily available to the director nor will
anything herein be construed to deprive any director of any right
he may have for contribution from any other director or other
person.
At
present, there is no pending litigation or proceeding involving any
of our directors, officers, employees or agents where
indemnification will be required or permitted. 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 Commission such indemnification
is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is,
therefore, unenforceable.
Equity Incentive Plans
In
July 2015, the Board of Directors and stockholders adopted the
Company’s 2015 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2015 Plan”), effective
as of July 5, 2015. The 2015 Plan provides for the grant of the
following types of stock awards: (i) incentive stock options, (ii)
nonstatutory stock options, (iii) stock appreciation rights, (iv)
restricted stock awards, (v) restricted stock unit awards and (vi)
other stock awards. The 2015 Plan is intended to help the Company
secure and retain the services of eligible award recipients,
provide incentives for such persons to exert maximum efforts for
the success of the Company and any affiliate and provide a means by
which the eligible recipients may benefit from increases in value
of the Common Stock. The Board reserved 500,000 shares of Common
Stock issuable upon the grant of awards under the 2015 Plan.
Pursuant to the 2015 Plan, a Stock Option for 30,000 shares was
granted to each Craig Loverock, Ned L. Siegel, and William Caragol
on December 29th.
On
March 31, 2021, the Board of Directors and majority stockholder
adopted the Company’s 2021 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2021 Plan”).
The 2021 Plan provides for the grant of the following types of
stock awards: (i) incentive stock options, (ii) nonstatutory stock
options, (iii) stock appreciation rights, (iv) restricted stock
awards, (v) restricted stock unit awards and (vi) other stock
awards. The 2021 Plan is intended to help the Company secure and
retain the services of eligible award recipients, provide
incentives for such persons to exert maximum efforts for the
success of the Company and any affiliate and provide a means by
which the eligible recipients may benefit from increases in value
of the Common Stock. The Board reserved 1,250,000 shares of Common
Stock issuable upon the grant of awards under the 2021 Plan.
Pursuant to the 2021 Plan, 15,000 Stock Option shares and 15,000
RSUs were granted to each Craig Loverock, Ned L. Siegel, and
William Caragol, on August 6th and September
6th, respectively. An additional 100,000 Stock Option
