Knightscope stock fell 4.23 percent as Q2 loss widened
Published on 10/07/2026 at 05:19 | Editorial responsibility: Rafael Müller, Editor-in-Chief AD HOC NEWSKnightscope (ISIN US49907V2016) stock was last at USD 0.69 on the Nasdaq Capital Market on October 6, 2026 at 4:00 p.m. ET, down 4.23 percent from the prior close of USD 0.72. The latest quarterly figures show a sharp revenue increase alongside a deeper loss and substantial operating cash use.
Revenue rises, losses deepen
Knightscope reported USD 9.024 million in Q2 2026 revenue, compared with USD 2.7 million in Q2 2025. Knightscope lists the period as its second quarter of 2026 and identifies the revenue figure in its investor-relations materials.
The revenue increase did not translate into profitability. Q2 2026 net loss was USD 14.09 million, or USD 0.79 per diluted share, while gross profit reached USD 664,000. The combination leaves operating leverage as the central issue for the stock.
Cash use sets the risk line
Operating cash flow was negative USD 11.495 million in Q2 2026, and cash and equivalents stood at USD 8.16 million on June 30, 2026. Those figures put financing capacity alongside revenue growth in the company story.
The latest results also contain a clear comparison: Q2 revenue rose 228 percent year over year, but the net loss widened to USD 14.1 million from USD 6.3 million in Q2 2025, according to ScanX on September 18, 2026. The source also reported gross margin of 7 percent, a shift from a gross loss of USD 0.9 million in the prior-year quarter.
New hiring adds dilution pressure
On October 1, 2026, Knightscope disclosed options for 789,444 Class A shares awarded to 107 newly hired employees under its 2025 inducement plan. Yahoo Finance reported that the options carry an exercise price equal to the September 30, 2026 closing price and vest over four years.
