Public Safety Communication Leader Achieves Record Performance and CEO Equity Adjustment

Motorola Solutions, Inc. (NYSE: MSI) reported record Q4 and full-year 2025 results on February 11, delivering revenue of $11.7 billion (approximately KRW 15 trillion), historic earnings, and an ending backlog of $15.7 billion (around KRW 20 trillion), underscoring strong growth across both of its major business segments. The company guided 2026 revenue to approximately $12.7 billion (about KRW 17 trillion), projecting further expansion, and said it is driving shareholder returns and strategic growth through sizable acquisitions—including the Silvers deal—alongside share repurchases and dividends. On March 4, CEO Gregory Brown exercised stock options and sold an equivalent number of shares in the open market, generating roughly $13 million (around KRW 18 billion) in liquidity, while still maintaining direct equity holdings valued in the low-$200 million range (approximately KRW 200 billion), according to regulatory filings.

At recent investor conferences hosted by Morgan Stanley and Raymond James, Motorola Solutions reiterated its strategic shift into a mission-critical communications, video and software platform provider focused on public safety and national security—marking its complete exit from the mobile phone business—and reinforced its growth-via-M&A strategy. The Motorola Solutions Foundation also highlighted its corporate citizenship at the end of February, announcing more than $10 million (approximately KRW 13 billion) in grants and over 125,000 employee volunteer hours in 2025 to support first responders and nurture future innovators.

Headquartered in Chicago, Motorola Solutions delivers mission-critical communication solutions—radio systems, networks, video security, and dispatch/command-and-control software—to public safety agencies, governments and enterprises following the spin-off of its mobile phone division. The global public safety and security communications market continues to expand steadily, driven by digital transformation, rising demand for video and artificial intelligence, and increased defense and policing budgets; Motorola Solutions’ network and video security enhancements, exemplified by the Silvers acquisition, align closely with these market trends.
