Sales down per 10Q , large losses, may have to do a reverse split to raise capital, not looking good.
I used to do M&A and if one looks at the financial picture of the company you run the other direction. Only because I have a pretty large position this ticks me off. Restructure this and that, sell this and that, etc, and no fn cash. If you can’t manufacture product and deliver it if / when sales exceed capacity, you are done. It’s that simple. The reverse split is definitely going to happen and it will be 20:1 for sure to keep listing. The only way out is for the company to be acquired by another firm in same industry and whether Santana likes it or not, he isn’t in a position to dictate terms. A VC firm might have interest in supplying $$$ but they would want control over Board and bring in their people. IMO, Santana will not ever agree to it. In a nutshell we are totally held captive with no say. If you or someone else saw a green light please let me know. Here’s hoping for better days but we are at a minimum of a year out before we even see .75
wow this does not make sense in anyway.
they are reaching with too many variables and none of them are working but pushing out on this media of new contracts but not showing up on the end game
It’s definitely out and you see what the market thinks, and not favorable. Not sure how many cards Santana is holding, but it better be all Aces.
when is the earnings supposed to be posted I thought it was yesterday but i do not see anything yet?
I hope that you are correct with respect to significant rise in PPS. But with the last few press releases, little to no movement, and until financials are released and we have time for analysis, I doubt it. The catalyst for a pop isn’t so much what amount is sold, it’s cost of goods sold, profit margin(s) and delivery dates. When you look at trading platform all you have is buy / sell of a few hundred shares here and there. My guess is that the MM are holding this from running until they accumulate enough shares that ‘they’ benefit greatly from the increase. Over past week no big blocks have been acquired / sold. Santana is throwing everything up against the wall hoping something will stick. A pivot in business strategy happens frequently but then you have to look at the cash burn rate again. They don’t have the cash on hand which makes me believe a large financial commitment is about to be announced.
The stock price of KSCP could (will) go BALLISTICALLY STRAIGHT UP at any moment and without ANY PRIOR WARNING AT ALL that it is getting ready to do that. It will just go BOOM and a lot of people are going to be kicking themselves knowing that they SHOULD HAVE - COULD HAVE - WISH THAT THEY HAD invested in KSCP long before the BOOM happened but it will just be way too late for them by then. Don't end up being one of these people (LOSERS) because that is a very sad place to be especially knowing that there is now absolutely NOTHING AT ALL THAT YOU CAN NOW DO ABOUT IT and now you just have to sadly stand on the side lines and watch while everyone else becomes rich - VERY RICH!!
Wow - even more GREAT KSCP NEWS just now out. Just keeps right on getting BETTER and BETTER. The money just keeps right on flowing in and in ever increasing amounts. $1.00 coming soon - VERY soon. Huge.
KSCP. Knightscope Lands 9 New Contracts/Renewals and Introduces Risk Analysts..
https://finance.yahoo.com/news/knightscope-lands-9-contracts-renewals-133500458.html
Agree "the Company needs to take on equity partner or look to be acquired."
unfortunately, I don't think that bond offering didn't work out very well for them!!
You are 100% correct. I’m beginning to think that majority owner (Santana sp?) isn’t willing to give up some of his equity to outside funding source to propel the Company forward. It’s all economics right now, ie, cash flow and burn rate. A reverse split accomplishes nothing but raise a red flag as investors will understand it is only to keep listing. The shifting of personnel and corresponding reduction in employees, consolidated manufacturing sites, ect., new business relationships, should have increased PPS over a $1 at a minimum. The bullish analyst forecast of $4.25 was unnecessary and proved to be BS because it had zero effect. Selfishly I’m becoming more concerned though remains bullish, as I have a significant amount of shares. With or without the RS, the Company needs to take on equity partner or look to be acquired. Of course, just my opinion. Have a great day
yeah, lets hope traders and shorts take their Jackboot off of KSCP neck before RS becomes necessary!!
The reverse ratio is up to PPS increase between now and meeting.

KSCP PRE 14A out, shareholder meeting July 1st, 1PM Pacific time..
https://www.sec.gov/edgar/browse/?CIK=1600983&owner=exclude
The financials, hopefully audited, will give us a clear snapshot of cash on hand vs production costs and delivery of products. Unless there is an infusion of capital I don’t see meeting sold contracts on timely basis. That’s a good and bad problem. YoY growth and QoQ growth clearly will show significant % improvement across landscape but it’s about $$$. The OMNIA announcement last week on surface should have boosted PPS and made shorts run. Neither happened. The clock is ticking. I’ve been part of this thing nearly day one on SE. sound financial results will produce an easy double because shorts have no choice but to cover.
Bought a lot more shares of KSCP stock today. KSCP is growing by leaps and bounds, Looking forward to the financials. Next week will be huge.
Yeah - and I'm hearing that the financials are going to be very good. Looking forward to it. Should give a nice bump up to the stock price. Huge.
what day does the report come out?
curious to see what KSCP Q1 financials look like next week..
The announcement validates the Company in numerous ways outside of current markets. This should definitely boost the PPS though nominally. Purchased is the cure all. And please don’t take this as a negative, as the Company already has issues with cash flow to fulfill new contracts. Makes me wonder if an outside entity is going to fund purchases / contracts proactively??? If so that should reduce net cost, better ROI, etc.
Absolutely. Won't be long now. Going to be a fun ride upwards.
OMNIA sounds like a nice group to be partnered with!
"to the more than 115,000 state and local government agencies and educational institutions participating in the OMNIA Partners cooperative."
KSCP has more news out this morning..
OMNIA Partners and Knightscope Team Up to Serve Public Sector
https://finance.yahoo.com/news/omnia-partners-knightscope-team-serve-133500796.html
The short volume over past couple of weeks, ie selling, has increased. It’s possible they see the squeeze coming. All that is needed is to prove that financial stability and ROI on way up.
looks like 200k KSCP shares may have been borrowed so far for shorting today?
https://fintel.io/ss/us/kscp
The filing was in reference to the minimum bid requirement to remain listed on NASDAQ capital market. Whether they get a stay or not will be interesting. KSCP response back is troubling and I missed it:
The Company intends to provide to the Staff a plan to regain compliance to the Panel, including, subject to approval of the Company’s Board of Directors and its stockholders, implementing a reverse stock split, should it be necessary.
thank you for that report, I knew somthing was up with that but thought it was resolved for now
thanks again
Good news and the stock price of KSCP will be way over $1.00 per share by then so no worries.
KSCP 8k out. ref delisting KSCP received a stay until June 11th..

thanks for the info and I like and agree with your report,.. I have several shares and i too believe in this company and what's its doing.
thanks again.
Thank you. Three weeks ago the release (Simply Wall St) that stated shareholders of KSCP appear satisfied after 30 day rebound in stock price was and is an example of BS. If one read it thoroughly it finished with 6 warning signs before investing. To attract new investors or have existing shareholders increase their position, corporate leadership would do well by taking an extended look at their public relations program. You can’t continue to release all these new deployments and not have significant increases in PPS. Substantial new deployments and costs flat or decrease? Messaging must be wrong. Short on cash, a monthly digest of progress on all fronts might be better format. Show the incremental growth financially then announce new contracts. The shorts have made a fortune every time the company says the list of new deployments is limited by ability to raise cash……. Wrong message. Find an equity partner that invests capital that believes KSCP has a group of products that successfully addresses a public issue ——— safety. Bankroll the production process and off we go. I suspect the hold up here is founder doesn’t want to give up equity. A piece of pie is better than none. lol. Once the shorts are taken off guard they pay dearly, we go up quickly. Enjoy the weekend.
Wow - great post and just so totally right on. I totally agree with everything that you just now said. Yes - 30 days from now (or less) the stock price of KSCP will be a LOT higher than it is now. Thanks for sharing your thoughts.
I have been an investor since day one via Start Engine, then have been buying shares on every dip. I didn’t see where the company got a notice of delisting. They have more than met required volume requirements. The only other thing would be requirement of fully audited quarterly financials or the audited annual. It’s not going to happen. Where my selfish concern is the company has restructured and making process improvements unit and personnel wise. Deployments increasing. Higher price target of $4.25. The shorts clearly have an impact and legal proceedings should bear fruit after years. No idea what the burn rate is which is predictor of available cash to remain viable. In my view over the next 30 days the shorts will be eaten alive as new contracts continue and incremental growth forces PPS upwards of $1.25-1.60. Shortly there should be significant volume increase if market believes the company can deliver. On the flip side, if the company does have its place in the security market, a mothership will buy the damn company. It’s cheaper to buy your competitor than trying to recreate the wheel. Ultimately I think longs win big. David

What once was restricted to the world of science fiction is now a reality.
This is not a movie, as robots are finally here to protect us—and thankfully, they appear a lot more like R2D2 than Skynet and the Terminator.
Autonomous Security Robots (ASR) are quickly becoming an essential part of our future1
as the population continues to grow past 8 billion people and the very real problem of law enforcement and security guards becomes a reality.
Bringing us towards this robot-secured reality is Knightscope, Inc. (NASDAQ:KSCP),
a Silicon-Valley-based advanced security tech company that builds ASRs that deter, detect and report with groundbreaking technology
that’s proven to help fight crime and has the potential to be the largest disruption of public safety in history.
Knightscope (NASDAQ:KSCP) recently acquired CASE Emergency Systems4 and its impressive roster of key clients, like the NYPD and FDNY.
The company expects a revenue run rate between $12 million to $14 million following this acquisition, delivering on the
accelerated growth by a significant margin versus the $3.4M from 2021.
Clearly, something needs to be done to protect the liberty and safety of the growing population, as the
National Crime Victimization Survey confirmed that violent crime in urban areas is rising dramatically.5
To combat this and better equip domestic law enforcement and private businesses, Knightscope, Inc. (NASDAQ:KSCP)
has developed timely solutions for the road ahead.
