Item 8.01 Other Events.

On August 2, 2021, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) filed a civil complaint (the “Complaint”) in the United States District Court for the District of Nevada naming JanOne Inc. (the “Company”) and one of its executive officers as defendants (collectively, the "Defendants").

The Complaint alleges financial, disclosure and reporting violations against the Company and the executive officer under Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act") and Rule 10b-5. The Complaint also alleges various claims against the executive officer under Sections 13(a), 13(b)(2)(A), 13(b)(2)(B) and 13(b)(5) of the Exchange Act and Rules 12b-20, 13a-1, 13a-13, 13a-14, 13b2-1, and 13b2-2. The SEC seeks permanent injunctions and civil penalties against the Defendants, and an officer-and-director bar against the executive officer. The foregoing is only a general summary of the Complaint, which may be accessed on the SEC’s website at https://www.sec.gov/litigation/litreleases.htm.

The Defendants strongly dispute and deny the allegations and intend to vigorously defend against the claims.
