Dear Shareholder:
You are cordially invited to attend the 2026 annual meeting of the shareholders of The GEO Group, Inc. We will hold the meeting virtually, conducted via live audio webcast atwww.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/GEO2026 on Tuesday, April 28, 2026, at 10:00 A.M. (EDT).
This year we are furnishing proxy materials to our shareholders primarily on the Internet rather than mailing paper copies of the materials to each shareholder. As a result, most of you will receive a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials instead of paper copies of this proxy statement and our annual report. The notice contains instructions on how to access the proxy statement and the annual report over the Internet, as well as instructions on how to request a paper copy of our proxy materials. This process significantly lowers the costs of printing and distributing our proxy materials. On or about March 19, 2026, we mailed to shareholders a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials.
Your vote is very important to us. Whether or not you plan to attend the meeting virtually, your shares should be represented and voted. After reading the enclosed proxy statement, please vote your shares as soon as possible. Shareholders may vote via the Internet atwww.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/GEO2026, by telephone, or by completing and returning a proxy card. Submitting a vote before the annual meeting will not preclude you from voting virtually at the meeting should you decide to attend. If you wish to participate in the meeting, please refer to page 60 for additional guidelines.
Sincerely,
George C. Zoley
Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
