Litigation Matters

The Company is involved in litigation arising from other matters in the ordinary course of business. We are regularly subject to claims, suits, regulatory and government investigations, and other proceedings involving labor and employment, commercial disputes, and other matters. Such claims, suits, regulatory and government investigations, and other proceedings could result in fines, civil penalties, or other adverse consequences.

Certain of these outstanding matters include speculative, substantial or indeterminate monetary amounts. We record a liability when we believe that it is probable that a loss has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. If we determine that a loss is reasonably possible and the loss or range of loss can be estimated, we disclose the reasonably possible loss. We evaluate developments in our legal matters that could affect the amount of liability that has been previously accrued, and the matters and related reasonably possible losses disclosed, and make adjustments as appropriate. Significant judgment is required to determine both likelihood of there being a loss and the estimated amount of a loss related to such matters.

Arena Litigation

Arena Investors, LP (ROI Litigation)

On May 30, 2024, Arena Investors, LP (“Arena”), in its capacity as collateral agent for five noteholders, filed a Complaint (the “ROI Complaint”) in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York against the Company and ROI, in action captionedArena Investors, LP v. Ault Alliance, Inc. and RiskOn International, Inc., Index No. 652792/2024.

The ROI Complaint asserts a cause of action for breach of contract against the Company based on a Guaranty, dated April 27, 2023, and entered into, amongst others, the Company and Arena, and seeks damages in the amount of in excess of $3.75 million, plus interest, attorneys’ fees, costs, expenses, and disbursements.

The ROI Complaint also asserts a cause of action for breach of contract against ROI based on an alleged breach of that certain Security Agreement, dated April 27, 2023, and entered into among ROI and Arena. In connection with this cause of action, Arena seeks, among other things, costs and expenses from the Company and ROI.

On July 31, 2024, the Company and ROI filed a motion to dismiss seeking to partially dismiss the ROI Complaint, as against the Company, and to dismiss the ROI Compliant, in its entirety, as against ROI.

On or about January 21, 2025, the Court entered an order denying the part of the motion which sought partial dismissal of the ROI Complaint, as against Company, and granting the part of the motion which sought dismissal of the ROI Complaint, in its entirety, as against ROI.

On February 18, 2025, the Company filed an Answer to the ROI Complaint and asserted numerous affirmative defenses.

On or about July 29, 2025, the Court entered an Order (the “Consolidation and Dismissal Order”) consolidating this action with that certain action captioned Arena Investors, LP v. Milton C. Ault III and Kristine Ault, Index No. 655857/2024, pending in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York (the “Second Filed Action”). In the Consolidation and Dismissal Order, the Court also dismissed so much of the complaint from the Second Filed Action that asserts claims arising from an alleged failure to pay a redemption premium as set forth in that certain Event of Default Redemption Notice, dated November 5, 2024, that Arena transmitted to, among others, the Company.

Based on the Company’s assessment of the facts underlying the claims, the uncertainty of litigation, and the preliminary stage of the case, the Company cannot reasonably estimate the potential loss or range of loss that may result from this action. Notwithstanding, the Company has recorded the unpaid portion of the notes. An unfavorable outcome may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

Other Litigation Matters

With respect to our other outstanding matters, based on our current knowledge, we believe that the amount or range of reasonably possible loss will not, either individually or in aggregate, have a material adverse effect on our business, consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. However, the outcome of such matters is inherently unpredictable and subject to significant uncertainties.
