Results
of Operations
Revenue
For
the year ended December 31, 2020, total revenues were $346,144, compared to $1,926,405 for
the year ended December 31, 2019. Total revenues decreased by approximately 82% due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the loss of a significant
customer during the year ended December 31, 2020.
As
a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, factory output decreased, shipping costs increased and the ability to distribute products to dealers,
wholesalers and retailers was constrained due to labor shortages.
For
the year ended December 31, 2020 total revenues generated in Canada decreased 56% from $65,842 USD to $28,917 USD for the same period
in 2019. For the year ended December 31, 2020, total revenue generated in the United States decreased 83% from $1,860,563 USD to $317,227
for the same period in 2019.
For
the year ended December 31, 2020, online revenues of increased from $174,793 in 2019 to
$337,053, an increase of 93%. Online revenue accounted for 90% of total revenue for the year ended December 31, 2020 compared to 8% for
the year ended December 31, 2019.
For
the year ended December 31, 2020, revenues based on distributors decreased from $64,610 in 2019
to $29,699.
For
the year ended December 31, 2020, private label revenues
decreased from $1,912,40 to $0.
Worksport
currently works with a total of nine dealers and distributors, however, given current market conditions Worksport plans to focus on online
sales during 2021. Management believes that increasing sales through online retailers will continue to outpace the traditional distribution
business model during 2021. Management further believes that online retailer’s customers tend to provide larger sales volumes,
greater profit margins and greater protection against price erosion.
Cost
of Sales
For
the year ended December 31, 2020 total cost of sales decreased by 82% from $1,687,857 to $298,996 for the year ended December 31, 2019.
The decrease in cost of sales directly relates to the decrease in revenues generated.
Cost
of sales, as a percentage of sales, was approximately 82% and 88% for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The decrease
in percentage of sales resulted in a gross margin increase from 12% for the years ended December 31, 2019 to 14% for the year ended December
31, 2020. This increase in gross margin is related to the fluctuation in foreign exchange rates between the Canadian Dollar and the United
States dollars for purposes of financial reporting as well as the decrease in the overall cost of goods sold, especially associated with
warehousing and fulfillment.
Shipping
and freight costs accounted for 28% of total cost of sales during the year ended December 31, 2020, compared to 3% in 2019. This increase
is primarily attributed to an increase in international shipping expense.
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 certain distributors or retailers are able to pick up product directly from one of Worksport’s stocking warehouses.

Off-Balance
Sheet Arrangements
The
Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements with any party.
COVID-19
The
recent outbreak of the novel 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.
16
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 mining production activities or the ore and mining
industry 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.
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.
