Byrna Technologies (Nasdaq: BYRN) has announced significant strides in its Latin American strategy, focusing on expanding its manufacturing capacity in Argentina to meet rising demand for its less-lethal security solutions.
Byrna LATAM plans to produce 3,000 launchers per month starting in Q1 2025 and expand ammunition production, including Byrna's Mission-4 and SDXL launchers in Argentina in 2025. A dedicated ammunition factory in Córdoba Province will boost the availability of Byrna Max and Byrna Pepper projectiles across Latin America.
In 2024, the Córdoba Provincial Police deployed 15,000 Byrna SD and Mission-4 units and ordered an additional 10,000 units for 2025, generating approximately $1.5 million in royalty income for Byrna Technologies. Byrna LATAM is also in talks with agencies in Peru and Brazil, potentially increasing production beyond 3,000 units per month.
Byrna's CEO, Bryan Ganz, highlighted the success and regional demand for Byrna's solutions during a recent visit to Buenos Aires, where he met with Argentina's Vice President Victoria Villarruel and the Córdoba Police Chief.
Byrna retains the right to repurchase 100% of Byrna LATAM based on profitability and compliance with U.S. audit standards, which would allow Byrna to include LATAM's sales in its topline numbers. Byrna expects to earn between $1.0 and $2.0 million in royalty income in 2025 based on LATAM's production plans.
Byrna Technologies (NASDAQ: BYRN) announced plans to increase launcher production by 33% to 24,000 units monthly starting January 2025, up from current 18,000 units. The company will implement two full shifts at its Fort Wayne, Indiana facility, with additional Saturday capacity when needed.
The company will also begin producing payload ammunition at a new facility near its launcher factory. These initiatives are part of Byrna's 'Made in America' strategy, which has increased US-sourced components from 11% to 79% since 2020. Byrna plans to exit China within six months and achieve 100% domestic sourcing for its Byrna SD launcher by end-2025.
The company expects improved margins through increased freight efficiency, higher volumes, and better supply chain management, offsetting potential price increases from domestic sourcing.
