State below in reasonable detail why Forms 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q, 10-D, N-SAR, N-CSR, or the transition report or portion thereof, could not be filed within the prescribed time period.

Workhorse Group Inc. (the “Company”) is unable to file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2024 (the “Form 10-Q”) by the prescribed due date without unreasonable effort and expense because the Company needs additional time to allow additional personnel who have recently assumed new responsibilities in the Company’s disclosure and financial reporting process to complete their work with appropriate attention and care and to allow for adequate review of such work, to implement certain adjustments to the Company’s accounting practices. The Company expects to file the Form 10-Q on or before November 19, 2024, which is within the five-calendar day extension period provided under Rule 12b-25.
