Hey Market Enthusiast 

Let’s start with a number: $71.8 billion. 

That’s where the global security robotics market is projected to be by 2027, more than double its 2022 size. (1)

It’s a signal—and a warning. Security is being redefined. The winners will be those who saw it early and moved with conviction. 

Knightscope (Nasdaq: KSCP) saw it in 2013. Now, the rest of the world is catching up. (2)

(22)

We’re not talking about theory. We’re talking about active deployments across the U.S.—with clients ranging from government agencies to healthcare campuses, casinos, data centers, transit systems, and Fortune 500 companies. These clients aren’t just experimenting. They’re renewing, expanding, and integrating Knightscope into their long-term security infrastructure. (3)

The momentum speaks volumes:
 

• Q1 2025 revenue surged 29% year-over-year (4)
• Over $2 million in new contracts in Q1 2025 alone (3)
• More than $1 million in annual recurring revenue secured through multi-year client renewals (6)
• Nearly 10,000 units deployed nationwide (2)
• All from a company with a market cap still hovering just over $50 million - This is what being early looks like ⚡(7) 
   

The Problem is Massive—and Growing ⚠️ Crime in America isn’t slowing.
 

• Every 26 seconds, a violent crime
• Every 5 seconds, property theft
• Vehicle theft up 12.6% last year alone It’s a $2.6 trillion annual economic drag on the U.S. (8)(9)

Meanwhile, the nation’s public safety infrastructure is cracking under pressure:

• Security guard turnover runs between 100% to 400% (10)
• Police departments face 10% to 30% vacancy rates (10)
• 24/7 posts require four full-time guards—costing up to $1.3 million annually (10)
   

Knightscope flips that equation. Its autonomous machines patrol 24/7 for as little as $11/hour—no sick days, no benefits, no burnout. 

They act as “force multipliers” for overburdened teams and often reduce the need for additional headcount altogether. 

The cost savings and operational advantages aren’t hypothetical—they’re immediate. 

And because Knightscope operates on a subscription-based “Machine-as-a-Service” model, every deployment feeds a growing base of high-margin, recurring revenue 🔄. (11)(12)
 

(23)

The Tech Is Real. So Are the Results 🤖 

Knightscope’s platform isn’t just about putting robots on sidewalks. 

It’s a full-stack public safety system combining autonomous patrol units, emergency communication devices, AI-driven threat detection, real-time monitoring, and human-in-the-loop support. (13)

Here’s what a client gets with every robot:
 

• Real-time HD video and audio
• Facial, license plate, and thermal detection
• Instant alerts on gunshots, suspicious behavior, or unauthorized activity
• 24/7 live human support via Knightscope’s Network Operations Center (14)
• Daily and quarterly reporting for continuous improvement (15)
   

This isn’t an add-on to the current system—it’s a replacement. The only thing more costly than crime is a security strategy that doesn’t evolve.

And it’s not just small players buying in:

• The U.S. Air Force awarding Knightscope a Phase 1 contract ✈️ (16)
• Federal facilities in Washington D.C. are considering Knightscope 🏛️ (17)
• Dozens of cities, schools, hospitals, casinos, and real estate groups are actively expanding their use of the technology (3)
   

These aren’t just contracts. They’re proof points. They signal trust, ROI, and institutional-scale validation.

Ready to Scale. Built to Lead 🛠️ In 2024, Knightscope executed a complete operational transformation:
 

• Consolidated three manufacturing sites into one streamlined facility
• Opened a 33,000 sq ft HQ in Silicon Valley 🏢 (18)
• Reduced general & admin payroll by one-third
• Outsourced non-core field operations
• Recruited new sales, finance, and engineering talent (19)
• Converted all preferred stock to common, eliminating overhang
• Cleaned up its capital structure for long-term growth (20)
   

On top of that, the company is building for what’s next. Two new product lines—the K7 Autonomous Security Robot and the K1 Super Tower—are scheduled for production in 2026, targeting new use cases and environments. (2)

That pipeline isn’t just innovation for its own sake—it’s tied to a $230 billion total addressable market spanning federal agencies, logistics, education, healthcare, retail, and residential security. (9)

And in a sector filled with small, private competitors like Cobalt or AITX, Knightscope stands alone as the only publicly traded pure-play in autonomous security robotics. (2)(9)

(22)

First-mover. Public market access. National deployment footprint. 10,000+ units and counting. That’s not just a moat. That’s momentum. 🏁

Analysts Are Taking Notice 📣 

All three analysts covering Knightscope have issued B-u-y ratings, with a consensus price target of $15.67—representing more than 195% upside from recent prices. (21)

HC Wainwright, which initiated coverage in early 2025, highlighted the company’s revenue acceleration, contract momentum, and structural tailwinds from both the public and private sector.
 

(23)

But here’s the thing: By the time the narrative catches up to the numbers, much of the upside is gone.

Knightscope (Nasdaq:KSCP) isn’t a someday story. It’s happening now—just under most radars. 🛰️

So What Happens Next? 

Security is no longer about adding more guards. It’s about combining autonomy, data, and deterrence into a system that scales with need—not headcount. Knightscope is doing what legacy players can’t: making public safety smarter, faster, and more efficient, one machine at a time.

The demand is here. The clients are real. The margins are improving. And the playbook is working.

Not every day offers a front-row seat to a market doubling in five years—and fewer still offer exposure to the company building the infrastructure behind it.

Some are watching this shift from the sidelines. Others are already in the game. Which side of the line do you want to be on? 🎯

To your success,
