| Item 2.02 | Results of Operations and Financial Condition. |
On March 9, 2025, Knightscope, Inc. (the “Company”) posted an updated corporate slide presentation (the “Presentation”), in which the Company announced that the Company’s estimated revenue for the year ended December 31, 2024 was approximately $11 million and that its estimated cash balance as of December 31, 2024 was approximately $11 million. The Presentation is attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K (“Current Report”) as Exhibit 99.1.
The foregoing revenue and cash balance information is based on preliminary unaudited information and management estimates for the year ended December 31, 2024, is not a comprehensive statement of the Company’s financial results as of and for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, and is subject to completion of the Company’s financial closing procedures. The Company’s independent registered public accounting firm has not conducted an audit or review of, and does not express an opinion or any other form of assurance with respect to, this preliminary estimate.
The information contained in Item 2.02, including Exhibit 99.1, is being furnished and shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.

This Current Report contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of words such as “should,” “may,” “intends,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “projects,” “forecasts,” “expects,” “plans,” “proposes” and similar expressions. Forward-looking statements contained in this Current Report include statements regarding the Company’s preliminary unaudited revenue and preliminary unaudited cash balance for the year ended December 31, 2024. Although Knightscope believes that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, there are a number of risks, uncertainties and other important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from such forward-looking statements, including the factors discussed under the heading “Risk Factors” in Knightscope’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, as updated by its other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of the document in which they are contained, and Knightscope does not undertake any duty to update any forward-looking statements, except as may be required by law.
