PRESS RELEASE: Knightscope Quadruples Workforce to Over 400 Strong; Company Approves Inducement Grants Under Nasdaq Rule 5635(c)(4) SUNNYVALE, Calif., March 17, 2026 – Knightscope, Inc. (NASDAQ: KSCP), the security technology company building the Nation’s First Autonomous Security Force, today announced a significant expansion of its workforce to over 400 personnel supporting its growing technology-enabled security services operations. In connection with these new hires, the Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors approved equity awards to 320 employees as inducement grants material to their employment with the Company. In the aggregate, the inducement grants consist of 326,994 shares of the Company’s common stock. The inducement grants were approved by the Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors and were granted as a material inducement to employment in accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(c)(4). The awards have an exercise price of $3.82, which is equal to the closing price of Knightscope’s common stock on March 13, 2026, and will vest, with respect to 25% of the shares subject to each such award, on the first anniversary of the date of grant, with the remaining shares vesting in equal monthly installments over a three-year period, in each case, subject to such employee’s continued service with Knightscope through the applicable vesting dates. The awards were issued across multiple employee tiers supporting the Company’s expanding operations, including 290 security agents responsible for client deployments and recurring revenue-generating security services, as well as 30 supervisory and leadership personnel. The workforce expansion reflects Knightscope’s continued evolution toward a technology-enabled managed services provider, delivering security at scale through a combination of autonomous technologies and trained security personnel supporting client deployments nationwide. “In an industry historically challenged by extremely high turnover, we believe building a world-class workforce starts with creating ownership and opportunity,” said William Santana Li, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Knightscope, Inc. “By expanding our workforce and offering equity participation to new team members, we aim to attract and retain mission-driven professionals committed to helping us build the Nation’s First Autonomous Security Force.” “This expansion reflects growing demand for our technology-enabled security services and the operational capacity required to support that growth,” said Eric Rose, President, Knightscope Security Force. “Providing equity participation to frontline personnel helps differentiate Knightscope in a highly competitive labor market while reinforcing a culture of accountability, quality, and long-term commitment to our clients.” Read full release and other news here: hubs.ly/Q04711W50

As we continue to celebrate Women’s History Month, we're proud to highlight the talented women who help drive our team forward across a range of disciplines, including sales, engineering, materials, and risk and threat analysis. We asked them to share what being a woman in robotics and technology means to them, along with advice they would give to the next generation of women entering the field. Their insights reflect the innovation and leadership that continue to shape the future of robotics.

What does an Autonomous Security Force look like? On April 2, we’re opening the doors at Knightscope HQ to share what we’ve been building. Join us for Autonomous Security Force Day, an evening open house featuring security robots, technology previews, and a look at systems currently in development. 6:00–9:00 PM PDT Sunnyvale, CA Register here: hubs.ly/Q046p_9N0

Every system has limits. Cameras cover defined angles. Guards can only be in one place at a time. Sensors generate alerts that still require interpretation and verification. When these elements operate independently, gaps form. Those gaps are where incidents occur, and those gaps are where accountability breaks down. Most organizations do not suffer from a lack of security tools. They suffer from a lack of integration, coordination, and ownership. But what does this mean for the industry? Here's our perspective; hubs.ly/Q046jmnN0

Security guards are essential and always will be. But there’s a limit to how far you can scale by just adding more people. At some point it gets expensive, inconsistent, and hard to manage across large sites. Technology promised to fix that. But technology brings its own problem: too many alerts, too much data, and teams trying to make decisions with incomplete context. So the real challenge isn’t humans vs. technology. It’s figuring out how the two should actually work together. That’s the conversation the security industry should be having. Full piece here: hubs.ly/Q0466Ldz0

Today we’re celebrating International Women’s Day by spotlighting a few of the women across Knightscope. Throughout March, we’ll continue highlighting women across our team and the perspectives they bring to our industry. We’re honored to work alongside such talented, dedicated professionals who help move our mission forward every day.

This week, we welcomed five graduate students from Carnegie Mellon University's Master of Science in Robotic Systems Development (MRSD) Program. Working out of Knightscope's future National Security Robotics Lab, they toured our HQ, collaborated with engineers on a proof-of-concept demo, and contributed advanced work supporting the Knightscope K7 Autonomous Security Robot as part of their capstone project 🤖 We look forward to seeing what they build this year!

I love my job!
