The Future Of Power Is American-Made

What says “freedom” more than a pickup truck that’s also a renewable power source? That’s the ultimate vision behind Worksport (Nasdaq: WKSP). 

This fast-growing U.S. company has made a name for itself selling truck covers. 

Every 100 dealers they sign represents millions of dollars in potential revenue, and their truck tonneau cover business has already signed nearly 400+ dealers, up 4X since the start of 2025.

Worksport’s revenue has grown 455% year-over-year, from $1.5M to $8.5M.

They project that by the end of 2025, they’ll reach $20M in revenue and 30% margins. 

But what’s next is an even bigger opportunity…

The $13B mobile power market. 

Worksport is combining their solar truck covers with battery systems to launch a flagship mobile power system later this year. Beyond trucks, this could power everything from camping trips to emergency response. That’s why it already has $450k in preorders. 

Now is your opportunity to invest ahead of a potential inflection point for the company. 

And you won’t find a better deal than this on the Nasdaq…

Right now, they’re giving you the chance to buy “units” for $3.25.

Each unit gives you one convertible preferred share (with an 8% dividend) and one warrant to purchase another common share.

They’re already a success in a market of 60+ trucks. Now, they’re going even bigger.

Invest in Worksport and secure your 8% dividend as they unlock a new chapter of growth.

Investors Are Eyeing This 8% Yield

Most savings accounts pay around 4%. Investors today can get an 8% dividend, plus share in the potential upside of a fast-growing U.S. business.

Worksport is on track for $20M in revenue and 30% margins by year-end. Their truck tonneau cover business has already signed nearly 400+ dealers—up 4X since the start of 2025.

And the biggest growth driver is likely still ahead: Worksport will soon launch its flagship solar + battery power system, targeting a $13B mobile power market (think off-grid power for 60M+ pick-up trucks).

With cash flow positivity in sight, the next 6 months could present a significant breakthrough.

Right now, investors can get a unit that includes one preferred share (with an 8% yield) that is convertible to common stock at any time and one warrant to purchase Nasdaq-traded shares at $4.50—that’s “instant” upside if public shares start trading higher.

Get it all at just $3.25 per unit while there’s time.
