Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

As previously disclosed, Duos Technologies Group, Inc., a Florida corporation (the “Company”), entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with Northland Securities, Inc. (the “Underwriter”) on February 3, 2022. Pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, the Company issued, and the Underwriter purchased for resale to the public, 1,325,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), on February 8, 2022.

Under the terms of the Underwriting Agreement, the Company also granted the Underwriter a 30-day option to purchase an additional 198,750 shares of Common Stock to cover over-allotments, if any. The Underwriter exercised this option in full and on February 17, 2022 the Company issued, and the Underwriter purchased for resale to the public, the additional 198,750 shares.

The offering price to the public of the Common Stock was $4.00 per share. The net proceeds to the Company from the offering (including the over-allotment), after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions, was approximately $5.7 million before expenses. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the offering for potential acquisitions, general corporate purposes and working capital.

Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.

On November 23, 2021, the Company received from The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) a letter indicating that it was not in compliance with Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 5550(b)(1), which requires companies listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market to maintain a minimum of $2,500,000 in stockholders’ equity for continued listing.  On its quarterly report for the period ended September 30, 2021, the Company reported stockholders’ equity of $865,221 and, as a result, did not satisfy Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 5550(b)(1).

As a result of the issuances of the Common Stock as noted in Item 1.01 above, as of the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K, the Company believes it has regained compliance with the stockholders’ equity requirement. Nasdaq will continue to monitor the Company’s ongoing compliance with the stockholders’ equity requirement and, if at the time of its next periodic report the Company does not evidence compliance, it may be subject to delisting.

Item 8.01 Other Events.

As a result of the offering, as of February 17, 2022, the Company has 6,089,343 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding.
