ITEM 1. BUSINESS
Item 1. Business.
General
The Company designs and distributes pickup truck covers called tonneau covers throughout the United States and Canada. Tonneau covers, described below are useful aftermarket accessories that provide security and protection for cargo to personal pickup truck owners.
The public, company, Franchise Holdings International, Inc. (“FNHI”), was incorporated in the state of Nevada on April 2, 2003.
Worksport Ltd. was formed in 2011 in Ontario, Canada (“Worksport Ontario”).
In December 2014, FNHI acquired 100% of the outstanding equity of Worksport Ontario pursuant to which Worksport Ontario became a wholly-owned subsidiary of FNHI. Since acquiring Worksport Ontario, the Company has abandoned all previous business plans and has focused on developing the tonneau business.
In May 2020, FNHI changed its name to Worksport Ltd. The Company’s common stock is currently quoted on the OTCQB under the symbol “WKSP.” All references to “Worksport,” “WKSP,” or “the Company” as used herein refers to the consolidated operations of the Company and Worksport Ontario.
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) SC3, SC3pro and TC (Tough Cover) TC3 lines.
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.
TC3
The TC3 was introduced in 2011 but offers a 14 millimeter thick aluminum tri-cover panel with a honey-comb core coated in a durable black scratch-resistant powder coating. The TC3 is fitted with the same frame as the SC3 and seals and latches the same as the SC3.
Products in Production
Worksport is currently developing the following products:
SC4
The SC4 is estimated to launch in the third quarter of 2021. 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.
TC4
The TC4 is currently in the design stage with an estimated to launch in the third quarter of 2021. The TC4 design will fold with four sections, and rotate toward the truck cab’s rear window, allowing full bed access. The cover will have three locking points, with two latching points that are cable operated. The cover will be made using FRP (fiberglass reinforced polymer) panels with a matte black silicate surface, for a durable, matt-black finish.
Like the SC3pro, TC4 will offer cable operated latching system. Options on the TC4 will include expandable cargo division and storage solutions.
TERRAVIS
We are currently developing a two component system called the TerraVis that consists of a solar tonneau cover and portable core battery.
The TerraVis tonneau cover will be the charging component of the TerraVis and is part of a larger proprietary system which uses mono-crystalline high efficiency solar panels, rather than our standard FRP or Aluminum rigid panels. The system will generate up to 1000-watts of low voltage DC current. The power will then be stored in an integrated, scalable Lithium Iron Phosphate (LiFeP04) battery bank, that can expand to over 6 kilowatts (kw) of energy storage. These components all combine to form the property TerraVis System, referenced above. The energy can be stored and inverted to two 2000-watt 110V AC outlets or used to re-charge the vehicle’s onboard battery systems as emergency.
Based on our TC4 design, our TerraVis cover is designed to provide portable power for pickup trucks and add driving range to next-generation EV (Electric Vehicle) pickups by generating solar charge power. While folded over the bed of the truck, the TerraVis cover is designed to charge power banks and portable batteries, turning any truck into a mobile micro-grid power station.
TerraVis will be designed with integrated track systems within the bed of the truck. These tracks 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.
The TerraVis COR will be the battery component of TerraVis and will be available to the broader consumer market as a standalone mobile power system for off-grid power. This will be a modular, scalable, portable power system. Chargeable via the TerraVis solar panel tonneau cover, any solar panel, or wall outlet. the TerraVis COR is the battery pack that will produce power from the modular Worksport COR battery packs and provide DC powder to charge mobile devices, as well as invert the power to 2000 watts of A/C power to power job sites, camp sites, or where power may not be conveniently available.
Our sales efforts for our TerraVis System will be focused on the North American markets, for companies such as Rivian, Workhorse, Atlis, Bollinger, Tesla, Hercules, as well as GM and Ford trucks.
Manufacturing
All Worksport products are manufactured in a facility located 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 10 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 (the United States, Canada and Mexico). Management is hopeful that an agreement can be reached between respective governments and that a new facility can be built sometime in 2021. Management believes that having manufacturing capability in North America will increase quality control and production efficiency.
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 other forms of intellectual property rights in the U.S. and various foreign countries. 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: four (4) issued U.S. utility and divisional patents, four (4) completed international Patent Cooperation Treaty (“PCT”) patents, one (1) issued Canadian utility and pending divisional patent. We also in the process of preparing five (5) U.S. provisional patent applications and one (1) U.S. design patent application. Our patents and applications relate, among others, to:
● Storage bag use for a tonneau cover;
● Tonneau system for use with a pickup truck;
● Latches and rails for use in tonneau truck covers; and
● Portable power systems.
Granted U.S. patents will expire between 2032 and 2039, excluding any patent term extensions that might be available following the grant of marketing authorizations. If issued, pending applications would expire in 2041, excluding any patent term adjustment that might be available following the grant of the patent and any patent term extensions that might be available following the grant of marketing authorizations.
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 15 trademarks in various states of pending, registered and allowed in the United States, Canada, China, the United Kingdom and Canada.
Government Regulation
Other than standard business licenses, no permits or regulatory approvals are required to distribute Worksport products to clients in any of the areas in which we operate.
The Market
Our revenue is directly proportional to sales of pickup trucks. The following graph shows sales of specialty equipment retail sales of aftermarket automotive accessories in the United States in billions from 2016, through the third quarter of 2019 and estimates those sales into 2023.
The worldwide COVID-19 pandemic has not critically affected the pickup truck market. In 2020, new vehicle sales were under 15 million, with light trucks accounting for approximately 74% of total sales in the United States.
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, Chevrolet Silverado, Ram 1500) throughout the United States, especially in the U.S. southern states.
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 grown rate (CAGR) between 2020 and 2030.
The top registered make and models of pickup trucks in the United States are shown below.
Top Registered Models
GM Full-Size Pickup 17.6 M
Ford F-Series 15.6 M
Ram Pickup 7.6 M
Toyota Tacoma 3.2 M
Ford Ranger 2.3 M
Chevrolet Silverado 2500 2.1 M
Toyota Tundra 2.0 M
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.
New Pickup Truck Sales in the United States by Month (All Models)
With 2019 year-end sales of almost 900,000 units, the Ford F-Series was the best-selling light truck in the United States. The Ford F-Series is a series of full-size pickup trucks, the most popular variant being the. The 14th generation of this model was released in 2020.
After years of recovery in demand for vehicles, U.S. car and light truck sales growth slowed down in 2019, compared with 2018. U.S. light vehicle sales came to around 17 million units in 2019, some 12.2 million of which were light trucks. With the exception of Toyota pickups, light trucks built by U.S.-based automakers continue to be favorites among U.S. vehicle buyers. The Ford F-Series, which has been one of the most popular automobiles with U.S. buyers for years, was ranked as the best-selling light truck in the United States at year-end 2019. The second spot was claimed by Chrysler’s Ram Pickup, followed by GM’s Chevrolet Silverado and the Toyota Tacoma.

Distribution
We distribute our tonneau covers are through wholesalers and online retail channels in Canada and the United States. We will also provide our tonneau covers for private labels and Original Equipment Manufacturers.
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 will 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 will purchase most of their products from their local distributor who will deliver to them regularly. Retail end consumers are simply the end users of the products.
The Original Manufacturing Market (OEM) consists of vehicle manufactures with corporate offices and distribution points globally. Specifically, within North America, Worksport’s target customers in OEM markets include but are not limited to:
● Toyota Motor Co;
● Lordstown Motors Corp;
● Rivian;
● Ford Motor Co;
● Nissan Motor Co;
● General Motors; and
● FCA Automotive (Ram Trucks).
Worksport currently has two OEM partnerships with the electric-truck manufacturers, Hercules Electric Vehicles and Atlis Motor Vehicles. These partnerships are currently in the development stage whereby we intend to work with these companies to explore integrating our TerraVis solar tonneau cover with Hercules and Atlis’ EV pickup truck models.
Competition
In our estimation, for many years, consumers looking to purchase tonneau covers have had a limited amount of options available to them and mostly consisted of:
1. Soft Folding & Roll-up covers (Vinyl covers);
2. Solid one piece caps and lids (Plastic & Fiberglass);
3. Retractable Covers (Plastic & Aluminum); and
4. 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 13 independent tonneau cover brands in North America. Truck Hero’s products directly compete with our products.
Our second largest competitor is Truck Accessory Group (TAG), however, TAG’s products do not directly compete with those of ours.
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 sell directly to customers (B2C). Worksport believes that we can expand our current customer base throughout our current and future markets and is evaluating entering various B2C channels to boost sales of new products.
Our business plan moving forward is to sell our products to the 60,000 existing auto parts retailers throughout the United States. Our products are currently being distributed to 17,000 of these stores.
The Company also plans to eventually expand to other markets outside the United States and Canada. We intend to generate revenue in new markets from the automotive specialty equipment markets 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 with TerraVis.
Employees
We currently employ four full-time employees inclusive of our Chief Executive Officer. We intend to hire additional employees as operations grow. We rely on independent contractors for additional labor as needed.
Executive Offices
Our principal executive offices and warehouse is located at 3120 Rutherford Road, Suite 414, Vaughan, Ontario, Canada L4K 0B2.
We lease this 3,600 square foot space at a price of $2,222 per month that commenced August 1, 2019 and ends July 31, 2022.

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.

● Decrease in gross profit from $238,548 for 2019 to $47,148 for 2020. A decrease of $191,400 or 80%.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At December 31, 2020, we had $1,107,812 in 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.
The Company had an accumulated deficit of $12,866,033 as of December 31, 2020. During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company completed a Reg-A offering in which $1,107,812 was raised.
During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company completed two private offerings of equity securities, pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) and Rule 506(b) of Regulation D under the Securities Act in which an aggregate of $250,000 was raised.
Cash increased from $11,993 at December 31, 2019 to $1,107,812 at December 31, 2020, an increase of $1,095,818 or 9,137%. The increase in cash was primarily due to funds raised from the Company’s public Reg-A offering.
As of December 31, 2020, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $1,107,812 and a working capital deficiency of $33,289. Net cash used by operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2020 was $726,304, compared to cash used in operations for the year ended December 31, 2019 of $2,157. The primary difference was due to the Company’s Net Loss as a result of operating expenses and interest expense.
Net cash used in investing activities for the year ended December 31, 2020 was $16,727 compared to $124,048 during the same period in 2019. The decrease in investing activities was primarily attributable to a significant decrease in the purchase of property and equipment.
Net cash provided by financing activities was $1,838,850 for the year ended December 31, 2020 compared to $117,841 for the year ended December 31, 2019. The increase in net cash provided by financing activities was primarily due to the Company’s Reg-A offering and private offerings.

During February 2021, approximately 12,000,000 warrants were exercised at $0.20 per warrant for an approximate value of $2,400,000.

During 2021, the Company intends to introduce several new tonneau covers as well as the TerraVis system. The Company anticipates that the introduction of these new products will improve the Company’s financial position.
Based on the Company’s future operating plans, existing cash of $1,107,812, additional funds of approximately $6,300,000 raised subsequent to the year ended December 31, 2020; management believes that the Company has sufficient funds to meet its contractual obligations and working capital requirements for the next 12 months and the foreseeable future.
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.
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.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and
Stockholders of Worksport Ltd.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Worksport, LTD (the Company) as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, and the related statements of operations, comprehensive loss, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2020, 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, 2020 and 2019, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2020, 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 m000aterial 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.
Convertible Promissory Note
As discussed in Note 8 to the financial statements, the Company entered into a secured convertible promissory note which included an original issue discount and is convertible at a set price which was lower than market on the date of issuance. The promissory note was issued with warrants. The Company accounted for the conversion feature as a beneficial conversion feature. A discount was recorded for the beneficial conversion feature and the relative value of the warrants after considering the original issue discount.
We identified the conversion feature as a critical audit matter because accounting for such features is complex and requires management to consider alternative reporting models. Convertible debt also requires management to complete complex calculations and include significant disclosures in their notes to the financial statements. These matters involve a large degree of expertise and judgment on the part of management. In turn, it required us to use significant effort and judgment.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2020 and 2019
1. Nature of Operations and Reverse Acquisition Transaction
Worksport Ltd. (the “Company”) was incorporated in the state of Nevada on April 2, 2003. During the year ended December 31, 2014, the Company completed a reverse acquisition transaction (the “Reverse Acquisition”) with TruXmart Ltd. (“TruXmart”). On May 2, 2018, Truxmart legally changed its name to Worksport Ltd. (“Worksport”). Worksport designs and distributes truck tonneau covers in Canada and the United States.
2. Basis of Presentation and Business Condition
a) Statement of Compliance
The Company’s financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) as issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”).
b) Basis of Measurement
The Company’s financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis.
c) Consolidation
The Company’s consolidated financial statements consolidate the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary. All intercompany transactions, balances and unrealized gains or losses from intercompany transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.
d) Functional and Presentation Currency
Effective January 1, 2020, the Company changed the functional currency of its subsidiary to United States dollars given the increasing prevalence of U.S. dollar-denominated activities of the subsidiary over time. The change in functional currency from Canadian dollars to United States dollars is accounted for prospectively from January 1, 2020. The subsidiary’s balance sheet was converted from Canadian dollars to United States dollars using the year ended December 31, 2019 United States dollar balance as the opening for January 1, 2020 in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 830. These financial statements are presented in United States dollars. The functional and presentation currency of the Company and its subsidiary is the United States dollar. As a result of the change in functional currency the Company recognized a loss on foreign exchange of $29,940.
e) Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
f) Business condition
The Company has evaluated whether there are conditions and events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date the financial statements are issued.
As of December 31, 2020, the Company had working capital deficiency of $33,289 and an accumulated deficit of $12,866,033. As of December 31, 2020, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $1,107,812. Based on its current operating plans, the Company believes it has sufficient level of funding for anticipated operations, capital expenditures and debt repayments for a period of at least 12 months from the issuance date of this annual report.
Worksport Ltd. (formerly Franchise Holdings International, Inc.)
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2020 and 2019
During the year ended December 31, 2020 and subsequent to the year ended the Company through its Reg-A public offering, private placement offering, and exercises of warrants had raised in aggregate of approximately $7,400,000. In addition, as of April 2021 the Company has approximately 45,840,121 warrants exercisable at $0.20 per warrant compare to an average share price of approximately $0.40 per share, anticipating additional warrant exercises.
Subsequent to year ended December 31, 2020 the Company intents to introduce several new tonneau covers most significant of which is the TerraVis. TerraVis is a solar cover tonneau cover will give pickup truck owners rechargeable portable power and add range to upcoming EV pickup trucks. The Company anticipates that the introduction of these new products will sufficiently improve the Company’s financial position.
Based on the Company’s future operating plans, existing cash of $1,107,812, additional funds of approximately $6,300,000 raised subsequent to year ended, combined with possible warrants exercises of approximately $9,100,000; management believes the Company have sufficient funds to meet its contractual obligations and working capital requirements for the next 12 months and the foreseeable future.
g) Reclassification
Certain comparative figures have been reclassified to conform to the current period’s presentation.
h) Revision of Prior Period Financial Statements
In connection with the preparation of our consolidated financial statements, we identified an immaterial error related to the recognition of a deemed dividend related to down-round features along with the associated shares issuance and professional fees in the annual periods in fiscal 2019 and first quarter of 2020. In accordance with SAB (Staff Accounting Bulletins) Topic 1.M, “Materiality,” and SAB (Staff Accounting Bulletins) Topic 1.N, “Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements,” we evaluated the error and determined that the related impact was not material to our financial statements for any prior annual or interim period, but that correcting the cumulative impact of the error would be significant to our results of operations and equity fiscal and interim periods of 2019 and 2020. Accordingly, we have revised previously reported financial information for such immaterial error, as previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year 2019. A summary of revisions to certain previously reported financial information presented herein for comparative purposes is included in note 23.
3. 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, 2020 and 2019, 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. For the years ending December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company incurred warranty expenses of $0 and $2,106.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2020 and 2019
3. Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Revenue Recognition-Beginning after December 15, 2018, for public entities reporting Revenue from Contracts with Customers, ASC 606, a new accounting standard for revenue recognition was issued. 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. These standards have had no effect on the reported consolidated financial statements.
Property and Equipment-Capital assets are recorded at cost and are amortized using the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives:
Furniture and equipment
years
Computers
years
Patents
years
Leasehold improvements
years
As at December 31, 2020, the Company does not take depreciation for the following items: product molds, trademarks and the website.
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 positions initially need to be recognized in the financial statements when it is more-likely-than-not the positions will be sustained upon examination by the tax authorities.

3. 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) 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 stockholder 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, 2020 and 2019, 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 19. Upon adoption, the Company also recognized right-of-use assets and lease liabilities of $68,516.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, “Debt-Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging-Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity.” The new guidance eliminates two of the three models in ASC 470-20, which required entities to account for beneficial conversion features and cash conversion features in equity, separately from the host convertible debt or preferred stock. As a result, only conversion features accounted for under the substantial premium model in ASC 470-20 and those that require bifurcation in accordance with ASC 815-15 will be accounted for separately. In addition, the amendments in ASU 2020-06 eliminates some of the requirements in ASC 815-40 related to equity classification. The amendments in ASU 2020-06 further revised the guidance in ASC 260, Earnings Per Share (“EPS”), to address how convertible instruments are accounted for in calculating diluted EPS and requires enhanced disclosures about the terms of convertible instruments and contracts in an entity’s own equity. The new standard is effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods within these fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. 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.

11. Income Taxes (continued)
These net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $5,897,000 may be offset against future taxable income for the years 2021 through 2040. No tax benefit from continuing or discontinued operations have been reported in the December 31, 2020 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, 2020 and 2019.

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.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2020 and 2019
24. 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.
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.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Item 9A. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)). Based upon that evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of the end of the year covered in this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the required time years and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal controls will prevent all error or fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Due to the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. To address the material weaknesses, we performed additional analysis and other post-closing procedures in an effort to ensure our consolidated financial statements included in this annual report have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Accordingly, management believes that the financial statements included in this report fairly present in all material respects our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the years presented.
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 Rule 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act, as amended. Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the Chief Executive Officer and Principal Accounting Officer and effected by our Board of Directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
The framework our management uses to evaluate the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting is based on the guidance provided by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations (COSO) of the Treadway Commission in its 2013 report: Internal Control-Integrated Framework. Based on our evaluation under the framework described above, our management has concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was ineffective as of December 31, 2020 due to the same material weaknesses that rendered our disclosure controls and procedures ineffective. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is not effective due to a lack of sufficient resources to hire a support staff in order to separate duties between different individuals. The Company lacks the appropriate personnel to handle all the varying recording and reporting tasks on a timely basis. The Company plans to address these material weaknesses as resources become available by hiring additional professional staff, as funding becomes available, outsourcing certain aspects of the recording and reporting functions, and separating responsibilities. We have identified the following material weaknesses.
As of December 31, 2020, we did not maintain effective controls over the control environment. Specifically our weaknesses related to a lack of a sufficient number of personnel with appropriate training and experience in accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or GAAP, limited or no segregation of duties. Furthermore, we have not developed and effectively communicated to our employees the accounting policies and procedures necessary to maintain effective controls over the control environment. This has resulted in inconsistent practices. Further, the Board of Directors currently has only one director that qualifies as independent and no director qualifies as an audit committee financial expert as defined in Item 407(d)(5)(ii) of Regulation S-K. Since these entity level programs have a pervasive effect across the organization, management has determined that these circumstances constitute a material weakness.
Because of these material weaknesses, management has concluded that the Company did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2020, based on the criteria established in “Internal Control-Integrated Framework” issued by the COSO.
Change in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fourth quarter of the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Attestation Report of the Registered Public Accounting Firm
This annual report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC that permit us to provide only management’s report in this annual report.

Family Relationships
Mr. Lorenzo Rossi is the father of Mr. Steven Rossi. There are no other family relationships between any of our directors or executive officers.
Involvement in Legal Proceedings
To our knowledge, there have been no material legal proceedings that would require disclosure under the federal securities laws that are material to an evaluation of the ability of our director or executive officers.
Code of Business Conduct and Ethics
Our Board plans to adopt a written code of business conduct and ethics (“Code”) that applies to our directors, officers and employees, including our principal executive officer, principal financial officer and principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing similar functions. We intend to post on our website a current copy of the Code and all disclosures that are required by law in regard to any amendments to, or waivers from, any provision of the Code.
Director Independence and Board Committees
We are not currently required under the Exchange Act to maintain any committees of our Board.
Nasdaq listing standards require that a majority of our Board be independent within one year of our initial public offering. An “independent director” is defined generally as a person other than an officer or employee of the Company or its subsidiaries or any other individual having a relationship which in the opinion of the Company’s Board, would interfere with the director’s exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director. Steven Rossi, Lorenzo Rossi and Craig Loverock serve as member of our Board of Directors. Our Board has determined that Craig Loverock is an “independent director” as defined in the Nasdaq listing standard and applicable SEC rules.
Pursuant to Nasdaq listing rules we will establish three standing committees - an Audit Committee in compliance with Section 3(a)(58)(A) of the Exchange Act, a Compensation Committee and a Nominating and Governance Committee, each comprised of independent directors. Under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5615(b)(1), a company listing in connection with its initial public offering is permitted to phase in its compliance with the independent committee requirements. We do not intend to rely on the phase-in schedules set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5615(b)(3).
Audit Committee. We currently have a standing Audit Committee. Craig Loverock and Steven Rossi serve as members of our current Audit Committee. Under the Nasdaq listing standards and applicable SEC rules, we are required to have at least three members of the Audit Committee, all of whom must be independent and financially literate, subject to certain phase-in provisions, and one member of the Audit Committee must qualify as an “audit committee financial expert” as defined in applicable SEC rules. Craig Loverock meets the independent director standard under Nasdaq listing rules and under Rule 10-A-3(b)(1) of the Exchange Act and qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert” under the SEC rules. Steve Rossi does not qualify as an independent director due to this executive position with the Company. Upon the effectiveness of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, Mr. Rossi will resign from the Audit Committee and we will appoint two independent directors to the Audit Committee.
We will adopt an Audit Committee charter, which will detail the purpose and principal functions of the Audit Committee, including:
● appoint, compensate, and oversee the work of any registered public accounting firm employed by us;
● resolve any disagreements between management and the auditor regarding financial reporting;
● pre-approve all auditing and non-audit services;
● retain independent counsel, accountants, or others to advise the Audit Committee or assist in the conduct of an investigation;
● seek any information it requires from employees-all of whom are directed to cooperate with the Audit Committee’s requests-or external parties;
● meet with our officers, external auditors, or outside counsel, as necessary; and
● oversee that management has established and maintained processes to assure our compliance with all applicable laws, regulations and corporate policy.
Compensation Committee. Upon the effectiveness of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, we will establish a Compensation Committee of the Board. Under the Nasdaq listing standards and applicable SEC rules, we are required to have at least two members of the Compensation Committee, all of whom must be independent, subject to certain phase-in provisions.
We will adopt a Compensation Committee charter, which will detail the purpose and responsibility of the Compensation Committee, including:
● discharge the responsibilities of the Board relating to compensation of our directors, executive officers and key employees;
● assist the Board in establishing appropriate incentive compensation and equity-based plans and to administer such plans;
● oversee the annual process of evaluation of the performance of our management; and
● perform such other duties and responsibilities as enumerated in and consistent with Compensation Committee’s charter.
The charter will permit the committee to retain or receive advice from a compensation consultant and will outline certain requirements to ensure the consultants independence or certain circumstances under which the consultant need not be independent. However, as of the date hereof, the Company has not retained such a consultant.
Nominating and Governance Committee. Upon the effectiveness of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, we will establish a Nominating and Governance Committee of the Board that will be comprised of independent directors.
We will adopt a Nominating and Governance Committee charter, which will detail the purpose and responsibilities of the Nominating and Governance Committee, including:
● assist the Board by identifying qualified candidates for director nominees, and to recommend to the Board of Directors the director nominees for the next annual meeting of stockholders;
● lead the Board in its annual review of its performance;
● recommend to the Board director nominees for each committee of the Board; and
● develop and recommend to the Board corporate governance guidelines applicable to us.
Meetings of the Board of Directors
During its fiscal year ended December 31, 2020, 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.
Employment Agreements
We have no written employment agreements with any of our executive officer or key employee.
Equity Incentive Plan
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) non-statutory 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 will administer the 2015 Plan. The Board reserved 100,000,000 shares of common stock issuable upon the grant of awards under the 2015 Plan. No awards have granted to any of our officers or directors pursuant to the 2015 Plan.
Our directors and executive officers, ages and position held with us is as follows:

ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS
Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence
Except as disclosed herein, no director, executive officer, stockholder holding at least 5% of shares of our common stock, or any family member thereof, had any material interest, direct or indirect, in any transaction, or proposed transaction in which the amount involved in the transaction exceeds the lesser of $120,000 or one percent (1%) of the average of our total assets at the year-end for the last two completed fiscal years.
Transactions with Related Persons
During the year ended December 31, 2019 and 2020, the Company recorded salaries expense of $65,589 and $87,030, respectively, related to services rendered to the Company by its major stockholder and CEO.
Controlling Persons
The Company is not aware of any agreements or understandings by a person or group of persons that could be construed as a controlling person.
Director Independence
Nasdaq listing standards require that a majority of our Board be independent within one year of our initial public offering. An “independent director” is defined generally as a person other than an officer or employee of the Company or its subsidiaries or any other individual having a relationship which in the opinion of the Company’s Board, would interfere with the director’s exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director. Steven Rossi, Lorenzo Rossi and Craig Loverock serve as member of our Board of Directors. Our Board has determined that Craig Loverock is an “independent director” as defined in the Nasdaq listing standard and applicable SEC rules. Steven Rossi and Lorenzo Rossi do not qualify as independent directors.
Audit Committee. We currently have a standing Audit Committee. Craig Loverock and Steven Rossi serve as members of our current Audit Committee. Under the Nasdaq listing standards and applicable SEC rules, we are required to have at least three members of the Audit Committee, all of whom must be independent and financially literate, subject to certain phase-in provisions, and one member of the Audit Committee must qualify as an “audit committee financial expert” as defined in applicable SEC rules. Craig Loverock meets the independent director standard under Nasdaq listing rules and under Rule 10-A-3(b)(1) of the Exchange Act and qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert” under the SEC rules. Steve Rossi does not qualify as an independent director due to this executive position with the Company. Upon the effectiveness of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, Mr. Rossi will resign from the Audit Committee and we will appoint two independent directors to the Audit Committee.
Compensation Committee. We do not currently have a Compensation Committee but we intend to establish one in the near future.
Nominating and Governance Committee. We do not currently have a Nominating and Governance Committee but we intend to establish one in the near future.
Related Person Transaction Policy
We have not had a formal policy regarding approval of transactions with related parties. We expect to adopt a related person transaction policy that sets forth our procedures for the identification, review, consideration and approval or ratification of related person transactions. For purposes of our policy only, a related person transaction is a transaction, arrangement or relationship, or any series of similar transactions, arrangements or relationships, in which we and any related person are, were or will be participants in which the amount involved exceeds the lesser of $120,000 or 1% of the average of our total assets at year end. Transactions involving compensation for services provided to us as an employee or director are not covered by this policy. A related person is any executive officer, director or beneficial owner of more than 5% of any class of our voting securities, including any of their immediate family members and any entity owned or controlled by such persons.
Under the policy, if a transaction has been identified as a related person transaction, including any transaction that was not a related person transaction when originally consummated or any transaction that was not initially identified as a related person transaction prior to consummation, our management must present information regarding the related person transaction to our Audit Committee, or, if Audit Committee approval would be inappropriate, to another independent body of our Board of Directors, for review, consideration and approval or ratification. The presentation must include a description of, among other things, the material facts, the interests, direct and indirect, of the related persons, the benefits to us of the transaction and whether the transaction is on terms that are comparable to the terms available to or from, as the case may be, an unrelated third party or to or from employees generally. Under the policy, we will collect information that we deem reasonably necessary from each director, executive officer and, to the extent feasible, significant stockholder to enable us to identify any existing or potential related person transactions and to effectuate the terms of the policy. In addition, under our code of business conduct and ethics, our employees and directors will have an affirmative responsibility to disclose any transaction or relationship that reasonably could be expected to give rise to a conflict of interest. In considering related person transactions, our Audit Committee, or other independent body of our Board of Directors, will take into account the relevant available facts and circumstances including, but not limited to:
● the risks, costs and benefits to us;
● the impact on a director’s independence in the event that the related person is a director, immediate family member of a director or an entity with which a director is affiliated;
● the availability of other sources for comparable services or products; and
● the terms available to or from, as the case may be, unrelated third parties or to or from employees generally.
The policy requires that, in determining whether to approve, ratify or reject a related person transaction, our Audit Committee, or other independent body of our Board of Directors, must consider, in light of known circumstances, whether the transaction is in, or is not inconsistent with, our best interests and those of our stockholders, as our Audit Committee, or other independent body of our Board of Directors, determines in the good faith exercise of its discretion.
