<p style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">&nbsp;</p>

<p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">This supplement, dated November 1, 2024 (this &#8220;Supplement&#8221;), supplements the definitive proxy statement (the &#8220;Proxy Statement&#8221;) filed by Byrna Technologies Inc. (the &#8220;Company&#8221;) on October 21, 2024 for the Company&#8217;s 2024 Annual Meeting of Stockholders to be held on Wednesday, November 20, 2024 (the &#8220;Annual Meeting&#8221;). The Company is providing this Supplement solely to correct the number of shares of common stock outstanding and the number of stockholders of record as of October 14, 2024 (the &#8220;Record Date&#8221;). The number of shares of common stock outstanding as of the Record Date was incorrectly stated in the Proxy Statement as 22,758,402 shares of common stock due to an inadvertent error related to counting of treasury shares. The&nbsp;correct&nbsp;number of shares of common stock outstanding as of the&nbsp;Record&nbsp;Date&nbsp;is 22,479,033 all of which are entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. The number of stockholders of record as of the Record Date was incorrectly stated in the Proxy Statement as 69, while the correct number of stockholders of record as of that date is 75.</p>

<p style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">&nbsp;</p>

<p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">For the purposes of the sections &#8220;About the Meeting&#8212;How many shares can be voted at the Annual Meeting in total?&#8221; in the Proxy Statement, the number of shares of common stock outstanding as of the Record Date is restated as 22,479,033 shares of common stock. The presence (including by proxy) of the holders of one-third of our outstanding voting shares as of the record date&nbsp;shall constitute a quorum for the purposes of the Annual Meeting.</p>

<p style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">&nbsp;</p>

<p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">Except as specifically supplemented by the information contained in this Supplement, all information set forth in the Proxy Statement continues to apply and should be considered in voting your shares.</p>

<p style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">&nbsp;</p>

<p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;"><b>Voting Matters</b></p>

<p style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">&nbsp;</p>

<p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">Please note that any proxy card that you requested or that we elected to deliver has not changed and may still be used to authorize your proxy in connection with the Annual Meeting. If you have already authorized your proxy, you do not need to take any further action. Information on how to vote your shares, either by voting at the Annual Meeting or by granting a proxy (i.e., authorizing someone to vote your shares), and how to change your vote or revoke your proxy is contained in the Proxy Statement. The Company urges stockholders to vote their shares prior to the Annual Meeting by using one of the methods described in the Proxy Statement.</p>
