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 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders of the Company (the “Annual Meeting”). The Annual Meeting will be held at the Company’s offices located at 12195 Dearborn Place, Poway, CA, on Wednesday, December 10, 2025, at 10:00 A.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 and “FOR” ratification of MaloneBailey, LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2026. 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 costs of the Annual Meeting 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 2025 Annual Report to Stockholders, which consists of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025. 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 by signing, dating and returning the enclosed proxy card in the enclosed postage-paid envelope. Your cooperation is appreciated since a majority of the outstanding shares of 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,
NOTICE OF 2025 ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS
NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVENthat the 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”) of NeoVolta, Inc. (the “Company”) will be held at the Company’s offices located at 12195 Dearborn Place, Poway, CA, on Wednesday, December 10, 2025, at 10:00 A.M., Pacific Time, for the following purposes:
| 1. | Election of Directors: To elect the following five (5) director nominees to the Board of Directors to serve for a one-year term ending at the 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders or until their successors are duly elected and qualified: |
| · | Ardes Johnson | · | Susan Snow |

| · | Chandler Weeks | ||
| 2. | Ratification of the Appointment of Independent Auditors: To ratify the appointment of MaloneBailey, LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2026. |
The Board of Directors (the “Board”) is not aware of any other business that will be presented for consideration at the Annual Meeting. If any other matters should be properly presented at the Annual Meeting or any adjournments or postponements of the Annual Meeting for action by stockholders, the persons named in the form of proxy will vote the proxy in accordance with their best judgment on such matters.
The Board recommends that you vote “FOR” each of the director nominees and “FOR” ratification of the appointment of MaloneBailey, LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2026.
Only stockholders of record as of the close of business on October 17, 2025 (the "Record Date") are entitled to receive notice of, to attend and to vote at the Annual Meeting. If you are a beneficial owner as of that date, you will receive communications from your broker, bank or other nominee about the Annual Meeting and how to direct the vote of your shares, and you are welcome to attend the Annual Meeting in person, all as described in more detail in the attached Proxy Statement.
Important Notice Regarding the Availability of Proxy Materials for the Annual Meeting to Be Held on Wednesday, December 10, 2025. The Proxy Statement, form of proxy card, and our 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2025, are available on the Internet at https://www.cstproxy.com/neovolta/2025 and on our corporate website at www.neovolta.com under “Investors—SEC Filings.”
