Item 8.01 Other Events.

Topgolf Callaway Brands Corp. (the “Company”) identified unusual IT system activity last week and immediately took proactive steps, in consultation with its external advisors, to secure its systems, including activating its incident response plan and moving some systems off-line as a precautionary measure. Law enforcement was also notified.

Currently, the majority of the Company’s systems are on-line and full access will be restored in the coming days. Based on its investigation and information currently known, the Company does not believe the incident will have a material effect on its business, operations, or financial results.
