SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., Oct. 22, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Axon (Nasdaq:
AAXN), the global leader in connected law enforcement technologies,
today announced Cincinnati Police
Department (Cincinnati PD) as the first major city agency to
receive shipments of the Axon Body 3 next generation body-worn
camera as part of the Officer Safety Plan 7+. Cincinnati PD has
also started using Axon Records for several critical Records
Management System (RMS) workloads including use-of-force reporting,
and will continue to deploy additional modules throughout 2020 and
beyond as part of an agencywide RMS upgrade to Axon Records. The
order for more than 1,000 Axon Body 3 cameras was received in the
third quarter of 2019 and is shipping now. For more information
visit: www.axon.com/axonbody-3.
The Axon Body 3 camera is deeply integrated with Axon Evidence
(Evidence.com) and Axon Records to provide a seamless, end-to-end
workflow by allowing officers and investigators to quickly
incorporate all video footage, photos, documents and
citizen-captured evidence into the official police record, helping
agencies quickly create a comprehensive view of a police incident.
Axon Records allows agencies to streamline the report writing
process so they have more time to spend in their community. The
system is fully configurable so agencies can create custom
forms, workflows and work-groups to meet their specific needs. Axon
Standards, a module within Axon Records that Cincinnati PD has
already deployed, provides agencies a highly efficient experience
for use-of-force reporting and other agency workflows.
"Axon Standards has made a huge difference in the amount of time
my staff spends creating reports," says Cincinnati PD Police Chief
Eliot Isaac. "We are seeing
exceptional benefits with how body camera footage can be directly
embedded in our use-of-force, officer accident, citizen complaint
and other internal reports. We're excited to begin the transition
to Axon Body 3 as we are not only able to capture clearer evidence
than ever before, but we are also ensuring the safety of our staff
with real-time notifications and alerts."
Axon Body 3 is LTE-enabled and designed for officer safety with
expanding capabilities like critical evidence previews, prioritized
wireless upload capabilities and more. The camera was built to help
officers capture the truth, act on real-time awareness and take
back time. The camera also includes improved low-light image
clarity and audio technology. Agencies that sign up with Axon's
hardware and software platform — including Axon Body 3 and Axon
Records — are put on a path toward a future vision where the
cameras automate transcription and automatically feed information
into Axon Records.
Axon will be featuring Axon Records and Axon Body 3 and its
real-time capabilities this week in Chicago at the 126th annual International
Association of Chiefs of Police (IACP) conference at Axon's booth
number 2211.

Forward-looking statements
These forward-looking statements include, without limitation,
statements regarding: proposed products and services and related
development efforts and activities; expectations about the market
for our current and future products and services; expectations
about customer behavior; statements concerning projections,
predictions, expectations, estimates or forecasts as to our
business, financial and operational results and future economic
performance; and statements of management's strategies, goals and
objectives and other similar expressions; as well as the ultimate
resolution of financial statement items requiring critical
accounting estimates, including those set forth in our Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2018.
Such statements give our current expectations or forecasts of
future events; they do not relate strictly to historical or current
facts. Words such as "may," "will," "should," "could," "would,"
"predict," "potential," "continue," "expect," "anticipate,"
"future," "intend," "plan," "believe," "estimate," and similar
expressions, as well as statements in future tense, identify
forward-looking statements. However, not all forward-looking
statements contain these identifying words.
We cannot guarantee that any forward-looking statement will be
realized, although we believe we have been prudent in our plans and
assumptions. Achievement of future results is subject to risks,
uncertainties and potentially inaccurate assumptions. The following
important factors could cause actual results to differ materially
from those in the forward-looking statements: our ability to
design, introduce and sell new products or features; customer
purchase behavior, including adoption of our software as a service
delivery model; the impact of product mix on projected gross
margins; our ability to manage our supply chain and avoid
production delays, shortages, and impacts to expected gross
margins; changes in the costs of product components and labor;
defects in our products; delayed cash collections and possible
credit losses due to our subscription model; exposure to
international operational risks; our ability to defend against
litigation and protect our intellectual property, and the resulting
costs of this activity; our exposure to cancellations of government
contracts due to appropriation clauses, exercise of a cancellation
clause, or non-exercise of contractually optional periods; loss of
customer data, a breach of security or an extended outage,
including our reliance on third party cloud-based storage
providers; negative media publicity regarding our products; changes
in government regulations in the U.S. and in foreign markets,
especially related to the classification of our product by the
United States Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives
and to evolving regulations surrounding privacy and data
protection; our ability to integrate acquired businesses; our
ability to attract and retain key personnel; and counter-party
risks relating to cash balances held in excess of FDIC insurance
limits. Many events beyond our control may determine whether
results we anticipate will be achieved. Should known or unknown
risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying
assumptions prove inaccurate, actual results could differ
materially from past results and those anticipated, estimated or
projected. You should bear this in mind as you consider
forward-looking statements. Our Annual Report on Form 10-K lists
various important factors that could cause actual results to differ
materially from expected and historical results. These factors are
intended as cautionary statements for investors within the meaning
of Section 21E of the Exchange Act and Section 27A of the
Securities Act. Readers can find them under the heading "Risk
Factors" in the Annual Report on Form 10-K and in the Quarterly
Report on Form 10-Q, and investors should refer to them. You should
understand that it is not possible to predict or identify all such
factors. Consequently, you should not consider any such list to be
a complete set of all potential risks or uncertainties.
Except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to
publicly update forward-looking statements, whether as a result of
new information, future events or otherwise. You are advised,
however, to consult any further disclosures we make on related
subjects in our Form 10-Q, 8-K and 10-K reports to the SEC.
