[Nasdaq: KSCP] (“Knightscope” or the “Company”), a leading developer of autonomous security robots and blue light emergency communication systems, today announces another new deployment and contract renewal for K5 Autonomous Security Robots (“ASRs”).

Knightscope’s commitment to making children safe extends beyond the classroom and into extracurricular and recreational activities. With over 3.5 billion followers worldwide, soccer is the number one sport on planet Earth, and Knightscope has begun protecting a new generation of players and fans in New York. A soccer academy and sports complex in Long Island now has a K5 ASR securing its entrance against trespassers and patrolling its parking lot to deter vehicle and catalytic converter thefts. The academy serves children from ages 2-18 as well as a Women’s Professional Soccer League (WPSL) team, making it an ideal candidate for an elevated public safety program.

A Fortune 1000 hotel and resort chain client renewed its K5 ASR contract in the Seattle area for the second year. Hospitality is a growing segment among Knightscope’s clientele. The Company has already secured numerous deployments and multi-year renewals in hotels, casinos and resorts, and this client boasts 6,500 properties globally, over 5,400 locations of which are in the United States. Knightscope’s recommendations for combatting crimes challenging the hotel industry target strategies for reducing activities such as burglary/theft, physical assaults, vehicle break-ins, human trafficking (prostitution) and murder. And ongoing renewals offer an optimistic outlook of the contributing effectiveness Knightscope provides to a safer lodging experience for guests, staff and visitors.
