Accounting Policies [Abstract] |
Basis of Accounting, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Basis of Presentation The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2024, the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, and 2023, and the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, and 2023, have been prepared by BK Technologies Corporation (the “Company,” “we,” “us,” “our”), and are unaudited but include all adjustments, including normal recurring adjustments, which, in the opinion of management, are necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the interim periods presented. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2023, has been derived from the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements at that date. These condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of Article 8 of Regulation S-X and the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 14, 2024. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, and 2023, are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for a full year.
Consolidation, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Principles of Consolidation The accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries have been included in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company consolidates entities in which it has a controlling financial interest. When the Company does not have a controlling financial interest in an entity but exerts significant influence over the entity’s operating and financial policies (generally defined as owning a voting or economic interest of between 20% to 50%), the Company’s investment is accounted for under the equity method of accounting. If the Company does not have a controlling financial interest in, or exert significant influence over, an entity, the Company accounts for its investment at fair value, if the fair value option was elected or at cost.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Fair Value of Financial Instruments The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, trade accounts receivable, investments, accounts payable, accrued expenses, notes payable, credit facilities, and other liabilities. As of September 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023, the carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, trade accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses, notes payable, credit facilities, and other liabilities approximated their respective fair value due to the short-term nature and maturity of these instruments. Effective September 14, 2022, the Company had an investment in Series B common membership interests of FG Financial Holdings, LLC (“FG Holdings LLC”). As further discussed in Note 7, the Company recorded the investment according to guidance provided by ASC 820 “Fair Value Measurement,” as the Company did not have a controlling financial interest in, nor exerted significant influence over the activities of FG Holdings LLC. The investment in Series B common membership interests of FG Holdings LLC was reported using the net asset value (“NAV”) of interests held by the Company at period-end. The NAV was calculated using the observable fair value of the underlying stock of Fundamental Global Inc. (Nasdaq: FGF) held by FG Holdings LLC, plus uninvested cash, less liabilities, further adjusted through allocations based on distribution preferences, as defined in the operating agreement of FG Holdings LLC. The NAV was used as a practical expedient and has not been classified within the fair value hierarchy. On January 25, 2024, the Company redeemed its Series B common membership interests (the “Interests”) in FG Holdings LLC and withdrew from FG Holdings LLC. In exchange for the Interests, the Company received 52,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock, with an approximate fair value of $650 on the date of the transaction and recorded a realized loss of $91 on the investment during the first quarter of 2024. The shares received by the Company are held as treasury stock, increasing the total number of treasury shares held by the Company to 342,080.
Liquidity [Policy Text Block] | Liquidity On November 22, 2022, the Company’s wholly owned subsidiaries, BK Technologies, Inc. and RELM Communications, Inc. (the “Subsidiaries”), entered into an Invoice Purchase and Security Agreement (“IPSA”) with Alterna Capital Solutions, LLC (“Alterna”), providing for a one-year line of credit with total maximum funding up to $15 million (the “Line of Credit”). On November 22, 2023, the IPSA was renewed for one more year. The Company used funds obtained from the Line of Credit to replace the JPMC Credit Agreement (defined below) (see Note 12). The IPSA was paid off in September 2024. On October 30, 2024, the Company entered into a new line of credit agreement with Fifth Third Bank, N.A. (see Note 14). Management believes that cash and cash equivalents currently available, combined with anticipated cash to be generated from operations, and borrowing ability are sufficient to meet the Company’s working capital requirements in the foreseeable future. The Company generally relies on cash from operations, commercial debt, and equity offerings to the extent available, to satisfy its liquidity needs and to meet its payment obligations. The Company may engage in public or private offerings of equity or debt securities to maintain or increase its liquidity and capital resources. However, financial and economic conditions, including those resulting from the current inflationary environment and current geopolitical tension, could impact our ability to raise capital or debt financing, if needed, on acceptable terms or at all.
Stockholders' Equity, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Reverse Stock Split On March 23, 2023, the board of directors (the “Board”) of the Company approved a one (1)-for-five (5) reverse stock split (the “Reverse Stock Split”) of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.60 per share (the “Common Stock”), and on April 4, 2023, the Company filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada a Certificate of Change to its Articles of Incorporation to effect the Reverse Stock Split. The Company executed the Reverse Stock Split, which became effective at 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on April 21, 2023. Shares of Common Stock underlying outstanding stock options and restricted stock units were proportionately reduced, and the respective exercise prices were proportionately increased in accordance with the terms of the agreements governing such securities. Accordingly, all shares and per share amounts for all periods presented in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto have been retroactively adjusted, where applicable, to reflect the Reverse Stock Split.
New Accounting Pronouncements, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Recent Accounting Pronouncements The Company does not discuss recent pronouncements that are not anticipated to have a material impact on or are unrelated to its financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or disclosures. In November 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2023-07 Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures which expands annual and interim disclosure requirements for reportable segments, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. The new standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this standard on its financial statements.
