WEST MELBOURNE, FL November 6, 2025 / BK Technologies Corporation (NYSE American: BKTI) (the “Company,” “BK Technologies”), a provider of advanced public safety communications solutions, today announced financial and operating results for the third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2025. The Company will host a conference call today, November 6, 2025, at 9:00 a.m. Eastern Time.

John Suzuki, CEO of BK Technologies, commented, “This was an excellent quarter for us, reflecting strong revenue growth, margin expansion and a significant increase in profitability. Our revenue growth in the quarter was driven by robust federal order activity, including multiple purchase orders totaling $12.9 million from the USDA Forest Service. We’re also seeing increased market recognition for our BKR 9000 multiband radio which commands a premium price point and helped drive margin improvement in the quarter.

“We ended the quarter with a record cash balance and no debt, underscoring the power of our proven, asset light model and strong operating leverage. Our financial strength provides us the flexibility to deploy capital thoughtfully, by pursuing opportunities that offer the highest return on invested capital, whether through new product innovation, strategic partnerships, or technology investments that aim to strengthen our long-term competitive position in our core public-safety communications markets. With our strong performance in the third quarter and year to date, we remain confident in our ability to meet or surpass our previously stated full-year 2025 guidance of high single-digit revenue growth, gross margin of 47%+, GAAP EPS of $3.15 per diluted share, and non-GAAP adjusted EPS of $3.80 per diluted share,” Mr. Suzuki concluded.

Use of Non-GAAP Measures

BK Technologies prepares its consolidated financial statements in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). In addition to disclosing financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP, the Company discloses non-GAAP financial measures. Management believes the non-GAAP financial measures discussed in this release are important to the reader of the Consolidated Financial Statements. The Company has provided the non-GAAP financial information presented in the press release, which is not calculated or presented in accordance with GAAP, as information supplemental and in addition to the financial measures presented in the press release that are calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Such non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered superior to, as a substitute for or alternative to, and should be considered in conjunction with the GAAP financial measures presented in the press release. The non-GAAP financial measures in the press release may differ from similar measures used by other companies.

1 Represents a non-GAAP financial measure. Refer to the section entitled “Use of Non-GAAP Measures” and Reconciliation to GAAP later in this press release.

Adjusted Earnings Before Interest Taxes Depreciation and Amortization (Adjusted EBITDA). Adjusted EBITDA is considered a non-GAAP financial measure under the SEC’s rules because it excludes certain amounts included in net income provided in the statement of operations attributable to the Company calculated in accordance with GAAP, the most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP. Management believes Adjusted EBITDA can help the investors better understand operational factors associated with the Company’s financial performance because it excludes the following from consideration: interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, and infrequent or unusual losses or gains (i.e., non-recurring and incremental restructuring charges that are not expected to be routinely incurred year over year because of the Company’s strategy and operating experience). See Reconciliation to GAAP below for calculation methodology and details regarding Adjusted EBITDA.

Adjusted earnings per share (Adjusted EPS). Adjusted EPS is considered a non-GAAP financial measure under the SEC’s rules because it excludes certain amounts included in the basic and diluted earnings per share attributable to the Company calculated in accordance with GAAP EPS, the most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EPS is a non-GAAP financial measure that adjusts GAAP EPS for expense items that are typically strategic in nature or that management otherwise does not view as reflecting the operating performance of the Company. Management believes Adjusted EPS can help the reader better understand the operating performance of the core businesses and their ability to generate earnings. The Company has non-cash charges for stock-based compensation and changes in investment value that do not reflect the operating performance of the LMR and Solutions businesses. The Company has also entered a master Service Agreement with EastWest Manufacturing, LLC for the manufacture of LMR radio products and accessories resulted in one-time adjustments related to the transition of production operations during the fiscal year 2024. The Company also recorded a one-time, non-cash income tax provision expense for NOL carryforwards during the second and third quarters of 2025. Management believes that these one-time charges do not reflect the operational profitability of the business for fiscal year 2024 and the second and third quarters of 2025 compared to prior periods. See Reconciliation to GAAP below for calculation methodology and details regarding Adjusted EPS. We do not provide reconciliations of forward-looking non-GAAP guidance due to the inherent difficulty in quantifying certain items necessary to provide such reconciliations as a result of their unknown effect, timing and potential significance.

These forward-looking statements are made as of the date of this press release, and the Company assumes no obligation to update the forward-looking statements or to update the reasons why actual results could differ from those projected in the forward-looking statement except as required by law.

This press release and related communications contain specifically identified non-GAAP financial measures, which supplement the results that are reported according to generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). These non-GAAP financial measures may be useful to investors but should not be viewed in isolation from, or as a substitute for, GAAP results. Differences between non-GAAP financial measures and comparable GAAP financial measures are reconciled in the release. We do not provide reconciliations of forward-looking non-GAAP guidance due to the inherent difficulty in quantifying certain items necessary to provide such reconciliations as a result of their unknown effect, timing and potential significance.
