Item 8.01 Other Events.
On or about September 20, 2025, BK Technologies Corporation (the “Company”) detected potentially suspicious activity involving its information technology (“IT”) systems. Upon detecting the issue, the Company began taking steps to assess, contain, and remediate the potentially unauthorized activity, including isolating the affected systems and launching an investigation with the assistance of external cybersecurity advisors.
As a result of the incident, a limited number of non-critical systems experienced minor disruption. However, through the Company’s remediation efforts, the Company believes that the third party responsible for this incident has been removed from the Company’s IT systems, and the Company’s ability to access information impacted by this incident has been restored. The Company’s operations have continued throughout the period since the detection of the cybersecurity incident in all material respects.
As part of the Company’s investigation into this incident, it appears that an unauthorized third-party may have obtained access to and acquired non-public information within the Company’s custody and control, which potentially includes records pertaining to current and former employees. The Company continues to investigate the nature and scope of the unauthorized access. The Company has notified law enforcement about this incident and intends to, as appropriate, furnish notice of this incident to affected parties and to regulatory agencies.
The Company currently expects that a significant portion of its direct costs incurred relating to containing, investigating and remediating the cybersecurity incident will be reimbursed through insurance recoveries.
While the Company’s investigation and assessment of this incident is ongoing, as of the date of this filing, the Company does not believe the incident is reasonably likely to materially impact the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.

This Current Report on Form 8-K contains statements about future events and expectations which are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Sections 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

Any statement contained in this Current Report on Form 8-K that is not a statement of historical fact may be deemed to be a forward-looking statement. All forward-looking statements involve risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements. Factors that might cause the Company’s actual results to differ materially from those anticipated in forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, the Company’s ongoing assessment of the impacts of the cybersecurity incident, including the Company’s potential discovery of additional information related to the incident in connection with its investigation or otherwise; the Company’s expectations regarding its ability to contain and remediate the cybersecurity incident; the impact of the cybersecurity incident on the Company’s relationships with customers, employees, and governmental regulators; the legal, reputational, and financial risks resulting from the cybersecurity incident, including as may arise from any potential regulatory inquiries and/or litigation to which the Company may become subject in connection with the incident; and remediation and other additional costs that may be incurred by the Company in connection with the investigation and remediation of the incident. The forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise, except as required by applicable law.
