Topping Today's Watchlist, Low Float Nasdaq Profile (KSCP) Jumps Green At The Get-Go

February 20th

Greetings Readers,

Knightscope, Inc. (Nasdaq: KSCP) is climbing my watchlist's top spot early Thursday.

Here's why...

First off, KSCP is a low float idea with roughly 3.46Mn shares in its float.

Secondly, the company recently achieved Full FedRAMP® Authorization, enabling broader deployment of the company's autonomous security solutions across federal agencies.

Thirdly, an analyst target of $16 from H.C. Wainwright suggests serious upside potential from current levels.

Listen. This isn't it.

There are more things to focus on like a move of operations to D.C. and a key partnership with the U.S. Air Force.

But right now, consider putting Knightscope, Inc. (Nasdaq: KSCP) on your watchlist and read my initial report below.

If there are more updates, I'll have them out to you quickly.

-----

In today's evolving security landscape, technology is playing a crucial role in shaping the future of safety and risk management.

Companies at the forefront of autonomous security solutions are redefining how businesses, public spaces, and critical infrastructure are protected.

With advanced AI-driven surveillance, real-time data analysis, and 24/7 monitoring, these innovations are not only enhancing security, but also improving efficiency and reducing operational costs.

As threats continue to evolve, organizations in-vest-ing in these technologies are positioning themselves as leaders in proactive security management.

And one under-the-radar company is starting to make serious waves in the sector...

In fact, in the last few months they've started to drop the hammer:

That's just a taste, but it could be why this Nasdaq profile was tagged in January by an analyst at H.C. Wainwright with a $16 target.

Factor in a low float of fewer than 4Mn shares, and there's zero doubt why this breakout idea is nearing the top of my watchlist:

*Knightscope, Inc. (Nasdaq: KSCP)*

Knightscope is transforming public safety with cutting-edge robotics and AI technologies.

From autonomous security robots to advanced detection systems, Knightscope is committed to building safer communities where you live, work, study and visit.

Their long-term ambition is bold but simple: to make the United States of America the safest country in the world.

And based on several potential catalysts, KSCP could draw significant buzz in the near term. Take a look:

No. 1 - This Nasdaq Profile Has A Very Low Float.

No. 2 - A $16 H.C. Wainwright Analyst Target Suggests Significant Upside Potential.

No. 3 - Establishing Operations In D.C. Could Drive Growth Across Multiple Sectors.

No. 4 - Another Milestone Reached With Knightscope Achieving Full FedRAMP® Authorization.

No. 5 - A Key Partnership With The U.S. Air Force Could Help With Urgent Security Challenges.

But more on those in a second...

Company Breakdown - Knightscope, Inc. (Nasdaq: KSCP)

Knightscope is on a long-term mission to make the United States of America the safest country in the world by deploying groundbreaking public safety technology.

Disruption By A.I.

Their long-term strategy is to network millions of autonomous machines, combining both current and future technologies, offering a multi-faceted and comprehensive approach to public safety.

Enhancing capabilities by an order of magnitude will improve efficiency and response times, leverage the power of AI for advanced autonomous cooperation, all while providing a scalable, cost-effective solution that can adapt to future challenges against those seeking to do harm to everyday Americans.

Opportunity

Public Safety is ripe for disruption by Artificial Intelligence and Robotics. Knightscope represents an opp. to build a $30Bn company that is analogous to the building of an all-new defense contractor but instead of focusing exclusively on the battlefield, they are focused on deploying groundbreaking technologies for the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, U.S. Department of Justice, the 19,000+ law enforcement agencies and 8,000 private security firms to safeguard Americans on our soil.

Crime

The 2.5 million law enforcement professionals and security guards, without the proper tools and technology, are woefully inadequate to safeguard 332Mn Americans across 50 states. This is evidenced by the fact that crime has a $2+Tn negative economic impact on the U.S. annually and a violent crime occurs every 26 seconds while a property crime occurs every 4 seconds. (1)

Technology

Knightscope's unique technology combining autonomy, robotics, AI and EV capabilities has been proven to be effective with nearly 3 million hours of operation in real world conditions across every time zone in America, through multiple winters and summers.

Machines-in-Network

The company has nearly 10k machines-in-network today and long-term they are targeting to put over 1Mn machines-in-network to assist the 2.5Mn law enforcement professionals and security guards with unprecedented capabilities at their fingertips – near superhuman capabilities.

Business Model

Their Machine-as-a-Service (MaaS) business model delivers recurring revenue for a recurring societal problem with hi-gh lux-ury automotive per unit economics but with long-term software-as-a-service margins.

No. 1 KSCP Potential Catalyst - This Nasdaq Profile Has A Very Low Float.

According to info from the Yahoo Finance website, KSCP has a really low float.

The website reports this profile to have roughly 3.46Mn shares in its float.

No. 2 KSCP Potential Catalyst - A $16 H.C. Wainwright Analyst Target Suggests Significant Upside Potential.

Just over 2 weeks ago, an analyst H.C. Wainwright tagged KSCP with a $16 target.

At open on Wednesday, that target suggested over 75% potential upside.

Here's some key report highlights:

  • We are initiating coverage of Knightscope, Inc. with a Buy rating and a 12-month price target of $16 per share. Headquartered in Mountain View, CA, Knightscope designs, develops, manufactures, and distributes AI-powered smart security solutions such as autonomous security robots and emergency communication devices. Products are deployed to a variety of industries, including airports, casinos, hospitals, hotels, manufacturing plants, parking garages, public parks, and schools. Following a series of corporate, technology, and operating changes initiated during 2024, the company has repositioned itself for revenue growth beginning in 2H25 and accelerating into 2026. As meaningful growth returns and in-vest-ors begin to extrapolate a path towards longer term pro-fit-ability and free cash flow, we believe demand for KSCP shares will increase, driving KSCP shares towards our $16 price target.
