(“DTI”), to Sandbank Acosta, LLC, a Florida limited liability company. Effective with the closing, DTI operates as an independent, privately held company under the DuosTI brand, led by newly appointed President Javier Acosta. The transaction, which closed on August 5th, 2026 with effect as of June 30th, 2026, returns Duos’ original operating business to private ownership as a focused railroad technology enterprise. DTI is a pioneer in machine vision and artificial intelligence-based inspection of moving trains and operates the largest installed base of Railcar Inspection Portals (RIP®) in North America, serving major carriers across the United States, Canada and Mexico. The Company believes DTI holds an extensive patent portfolio covering wayside scanning and AI defect detection and maintains the largest image database of railcar components in the world. “DTI built the technology that put Duos on the map, and its Railcar Inspection Portals remain the standard for AI-driven train inspection in North America,” said Doug Recker, Chief Executive Officer of the Company. “This transaction completes the strategic repositioning we announced earlier this year, placing the rail business with owners who are singularly focused on its growth while allowing Duos to dedicate its full capital and management attention to scaling our Edge Data Center and AI infrastructure platforms. We wish Javier and the DuosTI team every success and look forward to supporting a smooth transition.” “I had the privilege of leading the commercialization and field deployment of the Railcar Inspection Portal across the United States, Canada and Mexico, and I am honored to return to lead this exceptional team into its next chapter,” said Javier Acosta, President of DTI. “As DuosTI, we return to our roots as a focused railroad technology company. With the largest installed base of inspection portals in North America, a deep patent portfolio and an unmatched image database, we are well positioned to expand the reach of our inspection services for our railroad customers and the broader industry.” In connection with the closing, Adrian Goldfarb, the Company’s interim Chief Financial Officer, has stepped down as President of DTI, a role he had held since March 2026 to oversee the business and the divestiture process, with Mr. Acosta assuming the office of President. Mr. Goldfarb holds a 50% membership interest in Sandbank Acosta, LLC, and the sale was accordingly reviewed and approved by the Company’s Board of Directors as a related-party transaction, supported by an independent fairness opinion process undertaken in the second quarter of 2026. The divestiture completes the strategic repositioning announced by Duos in March 2026 and enables the Company to concentrate its resources on its Edge Data Center and AI infrastructure businesses through Duos Edge AI, Inc. and Duos Technology Solutions, Inc. Duos will provide certain transition services to DTI for a period following the closing to support continuity for DTI’s customers and employees.
