Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.

On August 26, 2014, Marcus Womack, General Manager of EVIDENCE.com, and Hadi Partovi, board member of TASER International, Inc. (the "Company" or "TASER"), were interviewed on the GeekWire radio show which was subsequently published on www.geekwire.com.

During the interview, Mr. Womack addressed the number of agencies that are currently using the Company’s camera technology. In this interview, Mr. Womack disclosed that the TASER has about 1,200 law enforcement agencies using the Company’s cameras today and 25 agencies using over 100 cameras. Mr. Womack also discussed the Company’s pilot program with the London Metropolitan Police where over 600, and soon to be around 1,000 cameras, are currently being used. As previously disclosed, the London Metropolitan program is a pilot program from which no revenue has been recognized by the Company at this point in time.

For more information regarding the interview, certain textual excerpts and a full audio version is currently available to the public on the GeekWire website.
