Revenue Growth and Diversification:
- Worksport reported full year net sales of $8.4 million, up 455% from $1.53 million in 2023.

- The company achieved Q4 net sales of approximately $2.93 million, a 250% year-over-year increase from $839,000 in Q4 2023.
- The Q4 performance was attributed to strong demand for both e-commerce platforms and distribution partners during the holiday season, and expansion into government and fleet sectors.

Product Innovation and Strategic Pivots:
- Worksport launched its premium AL4 tunnel cover under full-scale production, contributing to a significant increase in product lineup and sales.
- The shift towards higher-margin Worksport branded products was strategic, leading to an improvement in gross margins, with December gross margins exceeding 20%.

Financial and Cash Position Strengthening:
- Worksport's cash and liquidity increased to $4.88 million as of December 31, 2024, up from $3.37 million at the end of 2023.
- The increase in cash reserves was due to financing activities, including equity issuance and cash inflows from higher sales, which strengthened the company's financial foundation.
