**DUOS TECHNOLOGIES GROUP, INC.**

**SUPPLEMENT TO PROXY STATEMENT<br> FOR THE 2026 ANNUAL MEETING OF<br> SHAREHOLDERS**

This supplement (the "Supplement") relates to the notice of annual meeting of shareholders and proxy statement (the "Proxy Statement") of Duos Technologies Group, Inc., a Florida corporation (together with its subsidiaries, the "Company", "Duos", "we", "us" or "our"), previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), on April 15, 2026, and furnished to our shareholders in connection with the solicitation of proxies by our board of directors (the "Board") for the 2026 annual meeting of shareholders to be held on May 28, 2026, or any postponement or adjournment thereof (the "Annual Meeting").

Subsequent to the filing of the Proxy Statement, as disclosed in the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on May 20, 2026, the Board increased its size to six members and appointed Frank D. Recker, the Chief Executive Officer of the Company, to fill the newly-created vacancy. As a result, the current members of the Board are Charles P. Ferry, Ned Mavrommatis, James Craig Nixon, Frank A. Lonegro, Brian J. James, and Frank D. Recker.

This Supplement, dated May 20, 2026, is being made available to our shareholders on or about May 20, 2026, in connection with the solicitation of proxies by the Board for the Annual Meeting. This Supplement, which relates to and amends the Proxy Statement, includes updated information relating to the abovementioned new director and new Proposal No. 4, and includes an amended notice and proxy card.

**The amended proxy card or voting instruction form enclosed with this Supplement differs from the proxy card or voting instruction form previously furnished to you with the Proxy Statement dated April 15, 2026, to include the name of Frank D. Recker as a nominee for election as a director as a new Proposal No. 4. If you have already voted, we encourage you to resubmit your vote on all four proposals by submitting the amended proxy card or voting instruction form enclosed with this Supplement or by submitting a proxy by telephone or through the Internet by following the procedures on your amended proxy card or voting instruction form. However, if you return, or have returned, an original proxy card or voting instruction form, your proxy will still remain valid for all of the other proposals and director nominees other than Mr. Recker because he is not listed as a nominee on the original proxy card or voting instruction form, and will be voted at the Annual Meeting unless revoked. PLEASE NOTE THAT IF YOU SUBMIT A NEW PROXY CARD OR VOTING INSTRUCTION FORM, IT WILL REVOKE ALL PRIOR PROXY CARDS OR VOTING INSTRUCTION FORMS, SO IT IS IMPORTANT TO INDICATE YOUR VOTE ON EACH PROPOSAL ON THE NEW PROXY CARD OR VOTING INSTRUCTION FORM.**

Except for as supplemented by the information contained herein, including the amended notice and proxy card, this Supplement does not modify, amend, supplement or otherwise affect any matter presented for consideration in the Proxy Statement. This Supplement should be read in conjunction with the Proxy Statement, which contains important additional information. From and after the date of this Supplement, any references to the "Proxy Statement" shall mean the proxy statement as supplemented hereby.

**Important Note Regarding the availability of Proxy Materials for the Duos Technologies Group, Inc. Annual Meeting of Shareholders to be held on May 28, 2026: The Amended Notice of Annual Meeting of Shareholders, proxy statement, accompanying proxy supplement and Annual Report on Form 10-K are available at www.proxyvote.com.**

**PROPOSAL NO. 4**

ELECTION OF FRANK D. RECKER AS A DIRECTOR

On May 14, 2026, the Board increased the size of the Board to six members, creating one vacancy and, upon the recommendation of the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee of the Board, appointed Frank D. Recker, Chief Executive Officer of the Company, to fill the newly-created vacancy, effective immediately. The Board proposes that Mr. Recker be re-elected at the Annual Meeting to serve until the next annual meeting of shareholders to be held in 2027, or until his successor is duly elected and qualified.

NOMINEE **FOR** ELECTION AS A DIRECTOR

**Nominee**

Frank D. Recker, 54, is being nominated for election as a Director.

The following sets forth certain information about the director nominee:

**Frank D. Recker, Director**

Mr. Recker was named Chief Executive Officer of the Company effective April 1, 2026. He has been President of the Company since September 2025. Mr. Recker is a seasoned telecommunications and data center executive with over 30 years of experience. Since July 2024, Mr. Recker has been the President of Duos Edge AI, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and has been a driving force behind the Company's expansion into the Edge Data Center and colocation markets. Mr. Recker also served from July 2024 to September 2025 as the Chief Commercial Officer of New APR Energy, LLC, with which the Company has an Asset Management Agreement and in which it has a 5% equity interest. Mr. Recker was the President and Founder of EdgePresence LLC, an owner and operator of multi-tenant edge computing points-of-presence, from 2017 through 2023, when it was sold to Ubiquity LLC. Prior to that, from 2008 through 2014, Mr. Recker was the Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Colo5 Data Centers LLC, the owner of data center locations serving Fortune 100 companies, which was sold to Cologix, Inc.

Our Board believes that Mr. Recker brings significant data center and technology knowledge and leadership experience, which will be especially important as the Company focuses on that aspect of its business.

Mr. Recker's security ownership is set forth under the section titled "Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management" beginning on page six of the Proxy Statement.

**Required Vote**

Our Articles of Incorporation, as amended, do not authorize cumulative voting. Florida law provides that directors are to be elected by a plurality of the votes of the shares present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote on the election of directors. Only shares that are voted in favor of Mr. Recker will be counted toward his achievement of a plurality. Shares present at the Annual Meeting that are not voted for a particular nominee or shares present by proxy where the shareholder properly withheld authority to vote for Mr. Recker will not be counted toward his achievement of a plurality.

**At the Annual Meeting a vote will be taken on a proposal to approve the election of Mr. Recker as a director.** 

**RECOMMENDATION OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS:**

**THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE "FOR" THE ELECTION OF FRANK D. RECKER AS A DIRECTOR.**

**VOTING AND REVOCABILITY OF PROXIES**

Please vote as soon as possible using the amended proxy card or voting instruction form enclosed with this Supplement, which includes Mr. Recker as a nominee for election as a director. If you have already voted, you are not required to vote again. If you would like to vote for the election of Mr. Recker, however, you must vote again using the amended proxy card or voting instruction form.

If you return, or have already returned, your original proxy card or voting instruction form, then the votes indicated on such original proxy card or voting instruction form will remain valid for each of the proposals and director nominees and will be voted at the Annual Meeting unless revoked. **Please note that the submission of a new proxy card will revoke all prior proxy cards or voting instruction forms submitted, so it is important to indicate your vote for each proposal on any new proxy card or voting instruction form.**

If the amended proxy card or original proxy card or voting instructions form properly signed, dated and returned and is not revoked, the proxy will be voted at the Annual Meeting in accordance with your instructions. If no instructions are given on how to vote your shares, your proxy will be voted in accordance with the Board's recommendations on each proposal and for each nominee.

You may revoke your proxy and change your vote at any time before your vote is due, including the final vote at the Annual Meeting, if you have the right to vote at the Annual Meeting. Attendance at the Annual Meeting will not automatically revoke your proxy unless you vote at the Annual Meeting or specifically request in writing that your proxy be revoked.
