Worksport Ltd. Reports Additional $50,000 CEO Insider Stock Acquisition, Reinforcing Confidence in Long-Term Value Creation

Founder & CEO continues to acquire equity, reflecting his confidence in the Company's progress toward achieving operational cash-flow positivity and his belief that the Company's current market valuation, trading significantly below book-value. does not fully reflect its underlying business, or growth potential.

WEST SENECA, NY / ACCESS Newswire / June 9, 2026 / Worksport Ltd. (NASDAQ:WKSP) ("Worksport" or the "Company"), a U.S.-based innovator and manufacturer of hybrid and clean energy solutions primarily for the light truck, overlanding, and global consumer goods markets, today announced that its Founder and Chief Executive Officer, Steven Rossi, has elected to receive 79,618 shares of the Company's common stock in lieu of receiving $50,000 in cash compensation otherwise payable to him.

The shares were issued to Rossi pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement dated June 5, 2026, between Mr. Rossi and the Company at a purchase price of $0.6280 per share, representing the closing price of the Company's common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market on June 5, 2026.

This marks the second time Mr. Rossi has elected to receive Company shares in satisfaction of accrued, earned compensation. As previously announced, in April 2026, Mr. Rossi elected to receive 88,214 shares of common stock in lieu of $75,000 in accrued cash compensation.

Mr. Rossi's continued decision to acquire equity in lieu of cash compensation reflects his confidence in the Company's long-term strategy and his belief that the Company's current market valuation does not fully reflect its asset base, growth trajectory, expanding sales channels, intellectual property portfolio, and progress toward achieving operational cash-flow positivity.

Over the past several years, Worksport has grown annual revenue from approximately $1.5 million in 2023 to $8.5 million in 2024 and $16.1 million in 2025, while simultaneously expanding gross margins, increasing dealer penetration, commercializing new products, and investing in infrastructure designed to support future growth.

Worksport continues to pursue its stated objective of achieving operational cash-flow positivity through growing sales, expanding distribution, improving manufacturing efficiencies, and advancing its recently launched clean-energy solutions SOLIS and COR.

Management also believes that the continued commercial rollout of the Company's Nexus Tonneau Cover, launched in April 2026, together with the Company's broader commercialization initiatives, will support its long-term growth objectives.

CEO Commentary

"I continue to believe that Worksport is trading materially below the value of the business we have built," said Steven Rossi, Founder and Chief Executive Officer.

"Over the last several years, we have transformed Worksport through substantial investments in manufacturing, inventory, product development, distribution, intellectual property, and brand equity. During that time, our revenue has continued to grow, our margins have continued to improve, and we have made significant progress toward achieving operational cash-flow positivity.

"While market conditions and sentiment can fluctuate, my conviction in the Company remains unwavering. My decision to receive shares instead of cash compensation reflects my strong belief that the market has not yet fully recognized the strength of our assets, the progress we have made, or the opportunities that lie ahead. I have tremendous confidence in our team and remain highly optimistic about our ability to execute our strategy and create long-term shareholder value."

Management remains focused on disciplined execution, operational efficiency, revenue growth, and strengthening the Company's position across both its core and emerging business segments.
