Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

Three Months Ended March 31, 2024 and 2023

Unaudited

(In thousands, except share and per share data and percentages or as otherwise noted)

Note 1. Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

Basis of Presentation

The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2024, the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2024, and 2023, and the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2024, and 2023, have been prepared by BK Technologies Corporation (the “Company,” “we,” “us,” “our”), and are unaudited. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2023, has been derived from the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements at that date.

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 months ended March 31, 2024, and 2023, are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for a full year.

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.

Table of Contents

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 March 31, 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 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 FG Financial Group, Inc. (Nasdaq: FGF) held by FG Holdings LLC, plus uninvested cash, less liabilities, further adjusted through allocations based on distribution preferences, as defined in operating agreement of FG Holdings LLC. The NAV was used as a practical expedient and was not classified within the fair value hierarchy.

On January 25, 2024, the Company redeemed its Series B common membership interests (the “Interests”) of FG Holdings LLC and withdrew from FG Holdings LLC. In exchange for its 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

The Company incurred operating losses during 2023 and 2022 and reported negative cash flows from operations during 2022. The Company’s operating results were significantly impacted by the worldwide shortages of materials, particularly semiconductors and integrated circuits, extended lead times, and increased costs and inventory levels for certain components in 2022 with improvement to pre-COVID pandemic levels through the fiscal year 2023.

On November 22, 2022, the Company’s 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, and is expected to be renewed in November 2024. The Company used funds obtained from the Line of Credit to replace the JPMC Credit Agreement (defined below) (see Note 12).

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.

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.

Table of Contents

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.

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 June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326), Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. ASU 2016-13 introduced an expected credit loss methodology for the measurement and recognition of credit losses on most financial assets, including financial assets arising from revenue transactions, such as accounts receivable. The new expected credit loss methodology, which is based on a combination of historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts, replaced the incurred loss model for measuring and recognizing expected credit losses. This ASU is effective for the Company for 2023, and management incorporated this guidance into its methodology for estimating its accounts receivable allowances. Based on historical trends, the financial condition of the Company’s customers, and management’s expectations of economic and industry factors affecting the Company’s customers, the adoption of ASU 2016-13 did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Note 2. Significant Events and Transactions

On November 6, 2023, the Company entered into a Master Supply Agreement (the “MSA”) and Transition Services Agreement (the “TSA,” and together with the MSA, the “Agreements”) with East West Manufacturing, LLC, a Georgia limited liability company (“East West”). Pursuant to the Agreements, the Company will transition its West Melbourne, Florida manufacturing activities to East West’s facilities, and East West will become the exclusive third-party manufacturer of the Company’s radio product line under a three-year arrangement. In connection with the Agreements, the Company and East West entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”), pursuant to which East West purchased 77,520 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “BKTI Stock”) for an investment of $1,000. The number of shares of BKTI Stock was determined based upon a price per share of $12.90,which is equal to the average of the closing price of BKTI Stock on the NYSE American exchange for the 30 most recent trading days prior to November 6, 2023, rounded up to the nearest whole number of shares.

Additionally, East West purchased a warrant (“Warrant”), with a five-year term to purchase up to 135,300 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price per share of $15.00. The consideration for the Warrant is payment equal to (a) One Million Dollars ($1,000) minus (b) (i) the amount of any outstanding accounts payable by Company to East West and (ii) the amount of any excess or obsolete inventory of Company currently held by East West (solely to the extent not otherwise taken into account pursuant to the MSA or any other agreement between the Company and East West). The payment included a $950 reduction in accounts payable and $50 in cash. The BKTI Stock, the Warrant and the shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrant are deemed to be issued to an accredited investor in a private placement exempt from the registration pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of1933, as amended (“Securities Act”). The Company’s reliance upon Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act is based in part upon the following factors: (a) the issuance of the securities was in connection with isolated private transactions which did not involve any public offering; (b) there were a limited number of offerees; (c) there will be no subsequent or contemporaneous public offerings of the Warrant or the shares underlying the Warrant by the Company; and (d) the negotiations for the sale of the securities took place directly between East West and the Company.

Note 3. Allowance for Credit Losses

The allowance for credit losses on trade receivables was approximately $50 on gross trade receivables of $11,517 and $7,952 as of March 31, 2024, and December 31, 2023, respectively. The measurement and recognition of credit losses involves the use of judgment and represents management’s estimate of expected lifetime credit losses based on historical experience and trends, current conditions, and forecasts. The Company’s assessment of expected credit losses includes consideration of historical credit loss experience, the aging of account balances, customer concentrations, customer credit-worthiness, current and expected economic, market and industry factors affecting the Company’s customers, including their financial condition. The Company evaluates its experience with historical losses and then applies this historical loss ratio to financial assets with similar characteristics. Based on information available, management believes the allowance for credit losses as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 is adequate.

Note 4. Inventories, Net

Inventories, which are presented net of allowance for slow moving, excess, and obsolete inventory, consisted of the following:

	March 31, 2024		December 31, 2023
Finished goods	$	4,042	$	4,622
Work in process		7,053		8,275
Raw materials		11,448		11,055
	$	22,543	$	23,952

Allowances for slow-moving, excess, or obsolete inventory are used to state the Company’s inventories at the lower of cost or net realizable value. The allowances were approximately $1,333 as of March 31, 2024, compared with approximately $1,838 as of December 31, 2023.

Note 5. Income Taxes

The Company has recorded $21 tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 2024. The Company recorded no tax expense or benefit for the three months ended March 31, 2023.

The Company’s income tax provision is based on management’s estimate of the effective tax rate for the full year. The tax provision (benefit) in any period will be affected by, among other things, permanent, as well as temporary, differences in the deductibility of certain items, changes in the valuation allowance related to net deferred tax assets, in addition to changes in tax legislation. As a result, the Company may experience significant fluctuations in the effective book tax rate (that is, tax expense divided by pre-tax book income) from period to period.

As of March 31, 2024, the Company’s net deferred tax assets totaled approximately $4,116 and were primarily derived from research and development tax credits, deferred revenue, and net operating loss carryforwards.

In order to fully utilize the net deferred tax assets, the Company will need to generate sufficient taxable income in future years. The Company analyzed all positive and negative evidence to determine if, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not to realize the benefit of the net deferred tax assets. The recognition of the net deferred tax assets and related tax benefits is based upon the Company’s conclusions regarding, among other considerations, estimates of future earnings based on information currently available and current and anticipated customers, contracts, and product introductions, as well as historical operating results and certain tax planning strategies.

Based on the analysis of all available evidence, both positive and negative, the Company has concluded that it does not have the ability to generate sufficient taxable income in the necessary period to utilize the entire benefit for the deferred tax assets. Accordingly, the Company established a valuation allowance of $4,398 as of March 31, 2024, and December 31, 2023, respectively. The Company cannot presently estimate what, if any, changes to the valuation of its deferred tax assets may be deemed appropriate in the future. If the Company incurs future losses, it may be necessary to record additional valuation allowance related to the deferred tax assets recognized as of March 31, 2024.

Note 6. Capitalized Product Development Costs

The Company accounts for the costs of Land Mobile Radio (LMR) multi-band development within its products in accordance with ASC Topic 350-30, “ Intangibles – Goodwill and Other”, under which certain LMR multi-band radio development costs incurred subsequent to the establishment of technological feasibility are capitalized and amortized over the estimated lives of the related products. The Company determined technological feasibility was established for multi-band LMR radio products by the introduction of the BKR9000 multi-band portable product to the market in June 2023, as specified by Topic 350-30. Upon the general release of the LMR multi-band mobile radio product currently in development to customers, development costs for that product will be amortized over periods not exceeding ten years, based on future revenue of the product. Capitalized product development costs are $147 as of March 31, 2024.

Note 7. Investments

The investment in the Series B common membership interests of FG Holdings LLC was measured using the NAV practical expedient in accordance with ASC 820 Fair Value Measurement and has not been classified within the fair value hierarchy. FG Holdings LLC invests in the common and preferred stock of FG Financial Group, Inc. (Nasdaq: FGF) (“FGF”). FG Holdings LLC’s structure provides for Series A preferred interests, which accrue a return of eight percent per annum and receive 20% of positive profits with respect to the total return in the capital provided by the holders of Series A preferred membership interests. The Series B common membership interests receive cumulative distributions equal to the aggregate capital contributions by the Series B common membership interest equal to the total return on capital provided by the Series B common membership interests. Series B common membership interests also receive an additional return equal to 1.5 times the Series A of positive profits described above. There is no defined redemption frequency, and the Company could not redeem or transfer its investment without the prior written consent of FG Holdings LLC' managers, who were related parties. Distributions could be made to members at such times and amounts as determined by the managers, and were based on the most recent NAV. The Company did not have any unfunded commitments related to this investment.

As of December 31, 2023, the members and affiliates of FG Holdings LLC beneficially owned in the aggregate 5,666,111 shares of FGF’s common stock, representing approximately 55% of FGF’s outstanding shares. Additionally, FG and its affiliates constitute the largest stockholder of the Company. Mr. Kyle Cerminara, who served as a director of the Company and chairman of the Board of Directors until December 14, 2023, is Chief Executive Officer, Co-Founder, and Partner of FG and serves as chairman of the board of directors of FG Group Holdings Inc., the entity that is a majority Series B member in FG Holdings LLC. Mr. Cerminara also serves as a manager of FG Holdings, LLC and chairman of the board of directors of FGF.

Note 10. Non-Cash Share-Based Employee Compensation

Stock Options

The Company has employee and non-employee director share-based incentive compensation plans. Related to these programs, the Company recorded non-cash share-based employee compensation expense of $55 for the three months ended March 31, 2024, compared with $58 for the same period last year. The Company considers its non-cash share-based employee compensation expenses as a component of cost of products and selling, general and administrative expenses. There was no non-cash share-based employee compensation expense capitalized as part of capital expenditures or inventory for the periods presented.

The Company uses the Black-Scholes-Merton option valuation model to calculate the fair value of stock option grants under this plan. The non-cash share-based employee compensation expense recorded in the three months ended March 31, 2024, was calculated using certain assumptions. Such assumptions are described more comprehensively in Note 10 (Share-Based Employee Compensation) of the Notes to the Company’s consolidated financial statements included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023.

Note 11. Commitments and Contingencies

Legal Matters

From time to time, the Company may be involved in various claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of its business. The Company assesses its liabilities and contingencies in connection with outstanding legal proceedings using the latest information available, on a quarterly basis. Where it is probable that the Company will incur a loss and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated, it records a liability in its consolidated financial statements. These legal accruals may be increased or decreased to reflect any relevant developments on a quarterly basis. Where a loss is not probable or the amount of the loss is not estimable, the Company does not accrue legal reserves, consistent with applicable accounting guidance. There were no pending material claims or legal matters as of March 31, 2024.

Note 11. Commitments and Contingencies (continued)

Purchase Commitments

As of March 31, 2024, the Company had purchase commitments for inventory totaling approximately $12,308.

Significant Customers

Sales to United States government agencies represented approximately $9,830 (53.9%) of the Company’s net total sales for the three months ended March 31, 2024, compared with approximately $8,644 (46.2%) for the same period last year. Accounts receivable from agencies of the United States government were $5,941 as of March 31, 2024, compared with approximately $3,412 at the same date last year.

Geopolitical Tensions and COVID-19

U.S. and global markets are experiencing volatility and disruption following the escalation of geopolitical tensions and the military conflicts between Russia and Ukraine, and in the Middle East. Although the length and impact of the ongoing military conflicts is highly unpredictable, the conflict in both of these regions could lead to market disruptions, including significant volatility in commodity prices, credit and capital markets, as well as supply chain interruptions. While the impacts of COVID-19 are reflected in our results of operations for 2023 and 2022 respectively, we cannot separate the direct COVID-19 impacts from other factors that cause our performance to vary from quarter to quarter. The ultimate duration and impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our supply chain and geopolitical factors to our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows is dependent on future developments, including the duration and severity of the geopolitical factors on the global economy, which are uncertain and cannot be predicted at this time.

Note 12. Debt

Credit Facilities

On November 22, 2022, the Subsidiaries entered into the IPSA with Alterna. On November 28, 2022, the Subsidiaries and Alterna entered into a rider to the IPSA, to modify the IPSA to, among other things, provide a credit facility for up to 75% of net orderly liquidation value of inventory, not to exceed 100% of the eligible accounts receivable balance. The IPSA, which provides for a one-year Line of Credit with a maximum capacity of up to $15 million, unless canceled by either party, as provided in the agreement, was renewed in November 2023. The Line of Credit bears an interest rate of Prime plus 1.85%. The effective borrowing rate under the IPSA was 10.35% as of March 31, 2024. Interest and related servicing fees for the three months ended March 31, 2024, was approximately $201. Under the arrangement, the Company may transfer eligible short-term trade receivables to the conduit, with full recourse, on a daily basis in exchange for cash. Generally, at the transfer date, the Company may receive cash equal to approximately 85% of the value of the transferred receivables. The Company accounts for the transfers of receivables as a secured borrowing due to the Company’s continuing involvement with the accounts receivable.

The Company used approximately $4.5 million of IPSA funding to repay the outstanding balance of the previous credit facility with JP Morgan Chase Bank, N.A. (“JPMC”), which expired on January 31, 2023.

During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company transferred receivables having an aggregate face value of $17.5 million to the conduit and received proceeds of $15.0 million, which also includes draws on available inventory funding. There were no losses incurred on these transfers during the three months ended March 31, 2024.

As of March 31, 2024, the outstanding borrowings under the IPSA were approximately $7.3 million and the outstanding principal amount of receivables transferred under the IPSA amounted to $11.0 million.

Notes Payable

On April 6, 2021, BK Technologies, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, and JPMC, as a lender, entered into a Master Loan Agreement in the amount of $743 to finance various items of manufacturing equipment (the “JPMC Credit Agreement”). The Company used funds obtained from the Line of Credit to replace the JPMC Credit Agreement. This note payable was paid in full on June 27, 2023.

On September 25, 2019, BK Technologies, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, and U.S. Bank Equipment Finance, a division of U.S. Bank National Association, as a lender, entered into a Master Loan Agreement in the amount of $425 to finance various items of manufacturing equipment. The loan is collateralized by the equipment purchased using the proceeds. The Master Loan Agreement is payable in 60 equal monthly principal and interest payments of approximately $8 beginning on October 25, 2019, matures on September 25, 2024, and bears a fixed interest rate of 5.11%.

Note 13. Leases

The Company accounts for its leasing arrangements in accordance with Topic 842, “Leases.” The Company leases manufacturing and office facilities and equipment under operating leases and determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. ROU assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent its obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term.

As most of its leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The Company’s lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. The Company has lease agreements with lease and non-lease components, which are accounted for separately.

The Company leases approximately 54,000 square feet (not in thousands) of industrial space in West Melbourne, Florida, under a non-cancellable operating lease. The lease has an expiration date of September 30, 2027. Annual rental, maintenance, and tax expenses for the facility are approximately $491.

In February 2020, the Company entered into a lease for 6,857 square feet (not in thousands) of office space at Sawgrass Technology Park, 1619 NW 136th Avenue in Sunrise, Florida, for a period of 64 months commencing July 1, 2020. Annual rental, maintenance, and tax expenses for the facility will be approximately $196 for the first year, increasing by approximately 3% for each subsequent 12-month period.

Executive Summary

BK Technologies Corporation (NYSE American: BKTI) (together with its wholly owned subsidiaries, “BK,” the “Company,” “we,” or “us”) is a holding company that, through BK Technologies, Inc., its operating subsidiary, provides public safety-grade communications products and services which make first responders safer and more efficient. All operating activities described herein are undertaken by our operating subsidiary.

In business for over 70 years, BK operates two business units through its operating subsidiary, BK Technologies, Inc.: Radio and SaaS.

The Radio business unit designs, manufactures, and markets American-made wireless communications products consisting of two-way LMRs. Two-way LMRs can be radios that are hand-held (portable) or installed in vehicles (mobile).

Generally, BK Technologies-branded products serve the government markets, including, but not limited to, emergency response, public safety, homeland security, and military customers of federal, state, and municipal government agencies, as well as various industrial and commercial enterprises. We believe that our products and solutions provide superior value by offering a high specification, ruggedized, durable, reliable, feature-rich, Project 25-compliant radio at a lower cost relative to comparable offerings.

The SaaS business unit focuses on delivering innovative, public safety smartphone applications that operate ubiquitously over public cellular networks. Our BKRplay-branded smartphone application will offer multiple services that make first responders safer and more efficient. When tethered to our radios, the combined solution will offer a unique capability which increases the sales reach of our radios.

We were incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on October 24, 1997. We are the corporation resulting from the reincorporation merger of our predecessor, Adage, Inc., a Pennsylvania corporation, which reincorporated from Pennsylvania to Nevada effective as of January 30, 1998. Effective on June 4, 2018, we changed our corporate name from “RELM Wireless Corporation” to “BK Technologies, Inc.”

Our principal executive offices are located at 7100 Technology Drive, West Melbourne, Florida 32904, and our telephone number is (321) 984-1414.

Customer demand and orders for our products were strong during 2022 and 2023 and continued during the first quarter 2024. Our backlog of unshipped customer orders was approximately $19.0 million and $16.0 million as of March 31, 2024, and December 31, 2023, respectively. Changes in the backlog are attributed primarily to the timing of orders and their fulfillment.

For the three months ended March 31, 2024, sales decreased approximately 2.6% to approximately $18.2 million, compared with $18.7 million for the prior year period. The decrease was attributed primarily to the $27.0 million backlog as of December 31, 2022, carried into 2023, due to the 2022 supply chain disruptions. Gross profit margins as a percentage of sales for the three months ended March 31, 2024, were 34.5%, compared with 26.1% for the prior comparative quarter, generally reflecting improvement in material, component, and freight costs. Selling, general, and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2024, totaled approximately $5.3 million (29.1% of sales), compared with $5.9 million (31.4% of sales) in the same period of last year. We recognized operating income for the three months ended March 31, 2024, of approximately $1.0 million, compared with an operating loss of approximately $1.0 million for the same period for the prior year.

For the three months ended March 31, 2024, we recognized other expenses, net totaling approximately $0.3 million, primarily attributed to interest expense on our Line of Credit and a net realized loss from our investment in FG Holdings LLC. This compares with other expenses, net totaling $0.3 million for the same period last year, which included interest expense and an unrealized loss on the investment in FG Holdings LLC.

For the three months ended March 31, 2024, the pretax income totaled approximately $0.7 million, compared with pretax loss of approximately $1.3 million for same period of the prior year.

We recognized a tax expense of $21,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2024, and no tax expense for the same periods of the prior year.

Table of Contents

The net income for the three months ended March 31, 2024, totaled approximately $0.7 million ($0.19 per basic and diluted share), compared with a net loss of approximately $1.3 million ($0.37 per basic and diluted share) for the same period last year. The primary factors for the improvement for the three months ended March 31, 2024, compared to the same period last year, were lower raw material and freight costs related to easing of electronic component shortages from supply chain disruptions.

As of March 31, 2024, working capital totaled approximately $18.4 million, of which $14.8 million was comprised of cash, cash equivalents, and trade receivables. This compares with working capital totaling approximately $16.8 million at 2023 year-end, which included $11.4 million of cash, cash equivalents, and trade receivables.

First Quarter Summary

Customer demand and new orders for our products of $22.3 million continued to be strong during the three months ended March 31, 2024, compared to $13.8 million for the same period of the prior year.

Overall, for the first quarter 2024, sales decreased 2.6% to approximately $18.2 million, compared with approximately $18.7 million of sales for the first quarter last year. Gross profit margin as a percentage of sales for the first quarter of 2024 was approximately 34.5%, compared with 26.1% for the same period of last year, generally reflecting improvements in supply chain material costs and freight compared to the first quarter last year. Selling, general, and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses for the first quarter of 2024 totaled approximately $5.3 million, which was 9.8% lower than the SG&A expenses of approximately $5.9 million for the first quarter last year. The decrease in SG&A expenses is attributed primarily to development and marketing initiatives for the BKR 9000 product in the first quarter of 2023. These factors yielded an operating income of approximately $1.0 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2024, compared with an operating loss of approximately $1.0 million for the same quarter last year, with improvement primarily due to material costs related to supply chain challenges for the same period last year.

For the first quarter of 2024, we recognized a net realized loss totaling approximately $0.1 million on our investment in FG Holdings, LLC. This compares with an unrealized loss of approximately $0.1 million on the investment in FG Holdings, LLC, for the first quarter of last year.

Net income for the three months ended March 31, 2024, was approximately $0.7 million ($0.19 per basic and diluted share), compared with a net loss of approximately $1.3 million ($0.37 per basic and diluted share) for the same quarter last year.

As of March 31, 2024, working capital totaled approximately $18.4 million, of which approximately $14.8 million was comprised of cash, cash equivalents and trade receivables. As of December 31, 2023, working capital totaled approximately $16.8 million, of which approximately $11.4 million was comprised of cash, cash equivalents and trade receivables.

Net Sales

For the first quarter ended March 31, 2024, net sales decreased 2.6% to approximately $18.2 million, compared with approximately $18.7 million for the same quarter last year. Customer demand and orders for our products continued to be strong, reflecting the acceptance by the marketplace for our BKR 5000, as well as BKR 9000 product introduced in 2023. The supply chain issues experienced in 2022 and to a lesser extent in 2023 have diminished significantly, but the precise impact on sales and shipments for 2024 cannot be quantified.

Sales for the first quarter ended March 31, 2024, were attributed primarily to federal wildland fire-related agencies and certain state and local public safety opportunities. From a product perspective, the primary contributor to orders and shipments during the first quarter was our BKR 5000 portable radio and related accessories. The BKR Series is envisioned as a comprehensive line of new products, which includes new models such as the BKR 9000, which achieved first sales in the second quarter of 2023. The timing of developing additional BKR Series products and bringing them to market could be impacted by various factors, including potential impacts on our supply chain as a result of various electronic component suppliers. We believe that the BKR Series products should increase our addressable market by expanding the number of federal and other public safety customers that may purchase our products. However, the timing and size of orders from agencies at all levels can be unpredictable and subject to budgets, priorities, and other factors. Accordingly, we cannot assure that sales will occur under particular contracts, or that our sales prospects will otherwise be realized.

While the potential impacts of the current inflationary environment and ongoing geopolitical conflict and related sanctions in coming months and quarters remain uncertain, such effects have the potential to adversely impact our customers and our supply chain. Such negative effects on our customers and suppliers could adversely affect our future sales, gross profit margins, operations, and financial results.

Cost of Products and Gross Profit Margin

Gross profit margins as a percentage of sales for the first quarter ended March 31, 2024, were approximately 34.5% compared with 26.1% for the same quarter last year. Our cost of products and gross profit margins are primarily derived from material, labor, and overhead costs, product mix, manufacturing volumes, and pricing. Gross profit margins for the quarter ended March 31, 2024, increased compared with the same period last year, primarily due to improvement in material costs, including electronic components and to a lesser degree, easing of escalated freight costs.

During the year ended December 31, 2023, worldwide shortages of materials, including semiconductors and integrated circuits resulted in limited supplies, which in turn, extended lead times and resulted in higher costs for certain components used in our products. While the progression and duration of these shortages is not known with certainty, we monitored a number of critical components for product cost improvement and have experienced improvement to pre-pandemic levels. We utilize a combination of internal manufacturing capabilities and contract manufacturing relationships for production efficiencies and to manage material and labor costs. We believe that our current manufacturing capabilities and contract relationships or comparable alternatives will continue to be available to us. However, we may encounter new product cost and competitive pricing pressures in the future and the extent of their impact on gross margins, if any, is uncertain.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

SG&A expenses consist of marketing, sales, commissions, engineering, product development, management information systems, accounting, headquarters, and non-cash share-based employee compensation expenses.

SG&A expenses for the quarter ended March 31, 2024, totaled approximately $5.3 million (29.1% of sales), compared with approximately $5.9 million (31.4% of sales) for the same quarter last year.

Table of Contents

Engineering and product development expenses for the first quarter of 2024 totaled approximately $2.1 million (11.4% of sales), compared with approximately $2.4 million (12.9% of sales) for the same quarter of last year. The decrease in engineering expenses is attributed primarily to product design and development activities in the first quarter of 2023, particularly for the new BKR 9000 series radio introduced during the second quarter 2023. Most of these activities are being performed by our internal engineering team and are their primary focus, combined with sustaining engineering support for our existing products. The precise date for developing and introducing new products is uncertain and can be impacted by, among other things, supply chain shortages and certain component lead times in coming months and quarters.

Marketing and selling expenses for the first quarter of 2024 totaled approximately $1.5 million (8.4% of sales), compared with approximately $1.5 million (8.2% of sales) for the first quarter last year.

Other general and administrative expenses for the first quarter of 2024 totaled approximately $1.7 million (9.3% of sales), compared with approximately $1.9 million (10.3% of sales) for the same period last year. The decrease in general and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2024, is attributed primarily to non-recurring nature of corporate expenses related to the at-the-market capital raise (ATM) and reverse stock split strategic initiatives during the first quarter of 2023.

Operating Income (Loss)

The operating income for the quarter ended March 31, 2024, totaled approximately $1.0 million (5.4% of sales), compared with an operating loss of approximately $1.0 million (5.3% of sales) for last year’s first quarter. The operating income for the three months ended March 31, 2023, is attributed to higher gross profit margins related to improved material costs due to cost reduction efforts and supply chain improvements.

Other (Expense) Income

We recorded net interest expense of approximately $174,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2024, compared with approximately $144,000 for the first quarter of last year. Net interest expense was primarily the result of our Line of Credit.

On January 25, 2024, the Company redeemed its Series B common membership interests (the “Interests”) of FG Holdings LLC and withdrew from FG Holdings LLC. In exchange for its Interests, the Company received 52,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock, with an approximate fair value of $650,000 on the date of the transaction and recorded a realized loss of $91,000 on the investment during the first quarter of 2024, compared to an unrealized loss of $113,000 for the first quarter of 2023. 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.

Income Taxes

We recorded a tax expense of $21,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2024, compared with no income tax provision for the same period last year.

Our income tax provision is based on management’s estimate of the effective tax rate for the full year. The tax provision (benefit) in any period will be affected by, among other things, permanent, as well as temporary, differences in the deductibility of certain items, in addition to changes in tax legislation. As a result, we may experience significant fluctuations in the effective book tax rate (that is, tax expense divided by pre-tax book income) from period to period.

As of March 31, 2024, our net deferred tax assets totaled approximately $4.1 million and were primarily derived from research and development tax credits, operating loss carryforwards, and deferred revenue.

Table of Contents

In order to fully utilize the net deferred tax assets, we will need to generate sufficient taxable income in future years. We analyze all positive and negative evidence to determine if, based on the weight of available evidence, we are more likely than not to realize the benefit of the net deferred tax assets. The recognition of the net deferred tax assets and related tax benefits is based upon our conclusions regarding, among other considerations, estimates of future earnings based on information currently available and current and anticipated customers, contracts, and product introductions, as well as historical operating results and certain tax planning strategies.

Based on our analysis of all available evidence, both positive and negative, we have concluded that we do not have the ability to generate sufficient taxable income in the necessary period to utilize the entire benefit for the deferred tax assets. Accordingly, we established a valuation allowance of $4.4 million as of March 31, 2024, and December 31, 2023, respectively. We cannot presently estimate what, if any, changes to the valuation of our deferred tax assets may be deemed appropriate in the future. If we incur future losses, it may be necessary to record additional valuation allowance related to the deferred tax assets recognized as of March 31, 2024.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

For the three months ended March 31, 2024, net cash used in operating activities totaled approximately $0.8 million, compared with cash provided by operating activities of approximately $0.6 million for the same period last year. Cash used in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2024, was primarily related to an increase in accounts receivable and decrease in accounts payable offset by reductions in inventory and net income. Cash provided by operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2023, was primarily related to increased accounts payable and deferred revenues, partially offset by net loss.

For the first quarter of 2024, we had a net income of approximately $0.7 million, compared with a net loss of approximately $1.3 million for the same period last year. Accounts receivable increased approximately $3.6 million during the first quarter ended March 31, 2024, compared with an increase of approximately $0.2 million for last year’s first quarter, primarily due to timing of customer collections in the first quarter of 2024. Inventories decreased during the quarter ended March 31, 2024, by approximately $1.4 million compared with an increase of approximately $0.6 million for the same quarter last year. Accounts payable for the quarter ended March 31, 2024, decreased approximately $0.8 million, compared with an increase of approximately $1.2 million for last year’s first quarter, primarily due to material purchases. The decreases in inventories and accounts payable were attributed primarily to improvement of supply chain challenges from fiscal year 2022 and early fiscal 2023. Prepaid expenses increased during the first quarter by approximately $0.1 million compared with a decrease of $0.2 million for last year’s first quarter. Depreciation and amortization totaled approximately $0.4 million for the first quarter ended March 31, 2024, compared with approximately $0.4 million for last year’s first quarter. Depreciation and amortization are primarily related to manufacturing and engineering equipment. The realized loss on investments for the first quarter ended March 31, 2024, totaled approximately $0.1 million, compared with an unrealized loss of approximately $0.1 million for the first quarter last year. For additional information pertaining to our investments, refer to Note 1 (Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements) and Note 7 (Investments) to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report.

Cash used in investing activities for the quarter ended March 31, 2024, totaled approximately $0.2 million, compared with approximately $0.6 million for last year’s first quarter. The cash used for both periods was attributed primarily to the purchase of engineering and manufacturing related equipment.

For the quarter ended March 31, 2024, cash of approximately $0.8 million was provided by financing activities, compared with cash provided by financing activities of approximately $0.9 million for last year’s first quarter. During the first quarter of 2024 we received cash of approximately $15.0 million from debt, net of repayments totaling approximately $14.2 million, while for last year’s first quarter, we received cash of approximately $20.8 million from debt, net of repayments totaling approximately $19.9 million.

Our cash and cash equivalents balance on March 31, 2024, was approximately $3.3 million. We believe these funds, combined with anticipated cash generated from operations and borrowing availability under our ISPA Agreement, are sufficient to meet our working capital requirements for the foreseeable future. We may, depending on a variety of factors, including market conditions for capital raises, the trading price of our common stock and opportunities for uses of any proceeds, engage in public or private offerings of equity or debt securities to increase our capital resources. However, financial and economic conditions, which could be impacted by the current inflationary environment and current geopolitical tension, could limit our access to credit and impair our ability to raise capital, if needed, on acceptable terms or at all.

Critical Accounting Policies

In response to the SEC’s financial reporting release, FR-60, Cautionary Advice Regarding Disclosure About Critical Accounting Policies, we have selected for disclosure our revenue recognition process and our accounting processes involving significant judgments, estimates and assumptions. These processes affect our reported revenues and current assets and are, therefore, critical in assessing our financial and operating status. We regularly evaluate these processes in preparing our financial statements. The processes for revenue recognition, allowance for collection of trade receivables, allowance for excess or obsolete inventory and income taxes involve certain assumptions and estimates that we believe to be reasonable under present facts and circumstances. These estimates and assumptions, if incorrect, could adversely impact our operations and financial position.

During the first quarter of 2024, the Company began development of the BKR series LMR multi-band mobile radio product. The Company accounts for the costs of LMR multi-band development in accordance with ASC Topic 350-30, “ Intangibles – Goodwill and Other”. Upon the general release of the LMR multi-band mobile radio product currently in development to customers, development costs for that product will be amortized over periods not exceeding ten years, based on future revenue of the product.

There were no other changes to our critical accounting policies during the three months ended March 31, 2024.

Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

As a “smaller reporting company” as defined by Item 229.10(f)(1) of Regulation S-K, the Company is not required to include the disclosure under this Item.

Item 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(c) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (who serves as our principal executive officer) and Chief Financial Officer (who serves as our principal financial and accounting officer), as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (principal executive officer) and Chief Financial Officer (principal financial officer), of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act), as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including each of such officers as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

During the three months ended March 31, 2024, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Item 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

Share Repurchase Program

On December 21, 2021, the Company announced that the Board has authorized a share repurchase program which permits the Company to purchase up to an aggregate of $5 million of its common shares. The program does not have an expiration date. Any repurchases would be funded using cash on hand and cash from operations. The actual timing, manner, and number of shares repurchased under the program will be determined by management and the Board at their discretion and will depend on several factors, including the market price of the Company’s common shares, general market and economic conditions, alternative investment opportunities, and other business considerations in accordance with applicable securities laws and exchange rules. The authorization of the share repurchase program does not require BK Technologies to acquire any particular number of shares and repurchases may be suspended or terminated at any time at the Company’s discretion. The following table provides information about purchases made by us of our common stock for each month included in the first quarter of 2024:

Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Policies)	3 Months Ended
Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Policies)	Mar. 31, 2024
Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
Basis of Presentation	The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2024, the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2024, and 2023, and the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2024, and 2023, have been prepared by BK Technologies Corporation (the “Company,” “we,” “us,” “our”), and are unaudited. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2023, has been derived from the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements at that date. 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 months ended March 31, 2024, and 2023, are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for a full year.
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	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 March 31, 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 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 FG Financial Group, Inc. (Nasdaq: FGF) held by FG Holdings LLC, plus uninvested cash, less liabilities, further adjusted through allocations based on distribution preferences, as defined in operating agreement of FG Holdings LLC. The NAV was used as a practical expedient and was not classified within the fair value hierarchy. On January 25, 2024, the Company redeemed its Series B common membership interests (the “Interests”) of FG Holdings LLC and withdrew from FG Holdings LLC. In exchange for its 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	The Company incurred operating losses during 2023 and 2022 and reported negative cash flows from operations during 2022. The Company’s operating results were significantly impacted by the worldwide shortages of materials, particularly semiconductors and integrated circuits, extended lead times, and increased costs and inventory levels for certain components in 2022 with improvement to pre-COVID pandemic levels through the fiscal year 2023. On November 22, 2022, the Company’s 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, and is expected to be renewed in November 2024. The Company used funds obtained from the Line of Credit to replace the JPMC Credit Agreement (defined below) (see Note 12). 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.
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.
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 June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326), Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. ASU 2016-13 introduced an expected credit loss methodology for the measurement and recognition of credit losses on most financial assets, including financial assets arising from revenue transactions, such as accounts receivable. The new expected credit loss methodology, which is based on a combination of historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts, replaced the incurred loss model for measuring and recognizing expected credit losses. This ASU is effective for the Company for 2023, and management incorporated this guidance into its methodology for estimating its accounts receivable allowances. Based on historical trends, the financial condition of the Company’s customers, and management’s expectations of economic and industry factors affecting the Company’s customers, the adoption of ASU 2016-13 did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
