BK Technologies Corp (NYSE American: BKTI) is a land mobile radio (LMR) equipment company that designs and sells P25 digital and analog two-way radios for government and public safety users. Revenue comes from transactional product sales of BKR and KNG series radios, sold directly to end-users and through two-way communications dealers, with an emerging SaaS component through the BK ONE solutions portfolio including InteropONE push-to-talk-over-cellular and LocateONE services. Sales to government and public safety users represented substantially all revenue in FY2025 and FY2024. The company competes primarily in the North American market, with some international presence, against Motorola Solutions, which the FY2025 10-K filing estimates holds well in excess of half the LMR market. BK Technologies uses contract manufacturers rather than owning production facilities, focusing internal resources on product design and development. In March 2025, the company launched RelayONE, a portable repeater kit for public safety and military interoperability. The company holds one U.S. patent and has two pending U.S. patent applications related to its solutions portfolio, per the 10-K filed March 12, 2026.
