Knightscope, Inc. SEC Filings

Knightscope, Inc. disclosed an initial ownership report showing that major shareholder Eric James Rose directly holds 1,724,418 shares of Class A Common Stock. This Form 3 filing records his status as a ten percent owner and does not reflect any recent share purchases or sales.

Knightscope, Inc. files its annual report outlining a security technology business that remains unprofitable and faces going concern risks, while pursuing growth through integrated hardware, software and guarding services. The company targets a large U.S. security market with autonomous security robots, emergency communication devices and human-in-the-loop monitoring.

In February 2026 Knightscope completed the acquisition of Event Risk LLC for a mix of cash, debt repayment, stock and deferred payments, adding licensed response services and significantly expanding its workforce from 90 employees at December 31, 2025 to over 400. As of that date, backlog was about $2.8 million, and Knightscope held $20.6 million in cash and cash equivalents but had an accumulated deficit of $227.0 million and a 2025 net loss of $33.8 million, leading auditors to express substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.

Knightscope, Inc. has completed the acquisition of Event Risk LLC, bringing licensed guarding, executive protection, and risk‑mitigation services into its autonomous security platform. Under the Securities Purchase Agreement, consideration includes a $5.0 million closing cash payment, assumption and discharge of approximately $1.1 million of Event Risk indebtedness to Frost Bank, issuance of 1,724,418 Knightscope Class A common shares, and deferred cash payments totaling $4.0 million in quarterly installments from March 31, 2027 through December 31, 2028.

Additional contingent consideration includes earn‑out payments of up to $2.0 million based on 2026 revenue and gross margin thresholds, cash revenue share payments capped at $10.0 million for 2027–2031, and equity revenue share issuances capped at the lower of 2.5% of fully diluted shares or $3.0 million in grant‑date value. Event Risk, a nationwide security and executive protection provider with positive EBITDA and double‑digit growth, becomes a wholly owned subsidiary. Knightscope aims to offer an integrated managed security service that combines autonomous robots, AI‑driven software, and licensed human response under a single accountable contract.

Knightscope, Inc. (KSCP) filed its Q3 2025 report. Revenue rose to $3.1 million from $2.5 million a year ago, driven by $1.9 million in service and $1.2 million in product sales. Despite higher sales, the company posted a gross loss of $1.6 million and an operating loss of $9.5 million, reflecting continued negative margins and elevated R&D spending. Net loss for the quarter was $9.5 million; year‑to‑date net loss reached $22.8 million.

Cash and equivalents improved to $20.4 million as of September 30, 2025, from $11.1 million at year‑end, primarily supported by equity financing, including $31.2 million of ATM proceeds in the first nine months and $1.4 million from a direct registration offering. Debt included $4.0 million of Public Safety Infrastructure Bonds (non‑current) and $0.1 million of insurance notes; the August 2024 note was repaid. Management disclosed substantial doubt about continuing as a going concern and expects to raise additional capital. One client accounted for 24% of Q3 revenue and 20% year‑to‑date, highlighting concentration risk. Deferred revenue was $1.4 million.

Knightscope, Inc. (KSCP) filed a Form S-8 to register an additional 2,000,000 shares of Class A common stock to be issued under the Knightscope, Inc. 2022 Equity Incentive Plan, as amended.
