Item 8.01. Other Events.

On June 1, 2026, Dragonfly Energy Holdings Corp. (the “Company”) maker of Battle Born Batteries® filed a trade libel lawsuit against William Errol Prowse IV and Prowse Publications LLC in the Second Judicial District Court of the State of Nevada. The complaint seeks damages and injunctive relief to address the financial and reputational harm to Battle Born Batteries, which the Company alleges is the result of Prowse’s sustained campaign of false and misleading statements he distributed through monetized online content. According to the complaint, Prowse presented his content as technical analysis while omitting critical context, misrepresenting product design and altering the batteries before testing them by removing structural components and running already-damaged units out of spec, producing a materially inaccurate portrayal of Battle Born Batteries’ real-world safety and performance.
