UNITED STATES

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

Washington, DC 20549

SCHEDULE 14A

Proxy Statement Pursuant to Section 14(a) of the

Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (Amendment No. )

Dear Fellow Stockholder:

On behalf of the Board of Directors (the “Board”) and management of NeoVolta, Inc. (the “Company”), you are cordially invited to attend the 2024 Annual Meeting of Stockholders of the Company (the “Annual Meeting”). The Annual Meeting will be held at the Company’s offices located at 13651 Danielson Street, Suite A, Poway, CA, on Tuesday, December 10, 2024, at 2:00 P.M., Pacific Standard Time.

The attached Notice of the Annual Meeting (the “Notice”) and Proxy Statement describe in greater detail all of the formal business that will be transacted at the Annual Meeting.

The Company’s Board has determined that each of the proposals that will be presented to the stockholders for their consideration at the Annual Meeting are in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders, and unanimously recommends and urges you to vote “FOR” each director nominee, “FOR” ratification of MaloneBailey, LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2025, and “FOR” approval of the amendment to the NeoVolta, Inc. 2019 Stock Plan. If any other business is properly presented at the Annual Meeting, the proxies will be voted in accordance with the recommendations of the Company’s Board.

We are distributing our proxy materials to stockholders via the Internet under the “Notice and Access” rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. We believe this expedites stockholders’ receipt of proxy materials, lowers the Annual Meeting costs and conserves natural resources. As a result, we are mailing to many stockholders a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials (“Notice of Internet Availability”), rather than a paper copy of the Notice and Proxy Statement and 2024 Annual Report to Stockholders, which consists of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024. The Notice of Internet Availability contains instructions on how to access the proxy materials online, vote online and obtain, if desired, a paper copy of our proxy materials. The Notice of Internet Availability is not a proxy card and cannot be used to vote your shares. You will not receive paper copies of the proxy materials unless you request the materials by following the instructions on the Notice of Internet Availability or on the website referred to in the Notice.

We encourage you to attend the Annual Meeting, but if you are unable to attend, it is important that you vote in advance via the Internet, by telephone, or sign, date and return the enclosed proxy card in the enclosed postage-paid envelope. Your cooperation is appreciated since a majority of the common stock must be represented, either in person or by proxy, to constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at the Annual Meeting.

On behalf of the Board and all of the employees of the Company, we thank you for your continued support.

Sincerely,

Brent Willson

Chairman of the Board

The Board of Directors (the “Board”) is not aware of any other business that will be presented for consideration at the Annual Meeting.
