Item 8.01. Other Events.
On June 29, 2026, SurgePays, Inc. (the “Company”) and AT&T Mobility, LLC (“AT&T”) entered into an amendment to the agreement between the parties. On a go-forward basis, the amendment eliminates all remaining minimum spend commitments under the previous agreement, which had required an aggregate minimum spend of $50.0 million over the initial term of three years, and is expected to lower the Company’s acquisition and ongoing monthly subscriber costs via improved wholesale pricing to the Company and to be favorable to operating margins.
Pursuant to the amendment, AT&T also agreed to forgive approximately $10.3 million of previously billed minimum-commitment charges in excess of actual usage. The forgiveness will reduce the Company’s accounts payable by approximately $10.3 million and result in a corresponding gain of approximately $8.5 million in the second quarter of 2026, representing the reversal of minimum-commitment expenses previously reported for the three months ended March 31, 2026, with a favorable impact on the Company’s net income (loss) and stockholders’ equity (deficit) in the period.
The information furnished in this Item 8.01 is intended to be considered in the context of more complete information included in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and other public announcements that the Company has made and may make from time to time by press release or otherwise. The Company undertakes no duty or obligation to update or revise such information, although it may do so from time to time as its management believes is appropriate. Any such updating may be made through the filing of other reports or documents with the SEC, through press releases or through other public disclosures.
The information contained in this Item 8.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is being furnished and shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that Section, nor shall such information be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.

This Current Report on Form 8-K contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding the Company’s beliefs and expectations relating to effects of the amended arrangement on the Company’s results of operations and expected costs and margins. These forward-looking statements are based on the current beliefs and expectations of the Company’s management with respect to future events, only speak as of the date that they are made and are subject to significant risks and uncertainties.

Important factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, the factors contained in the “Risk Factors” section and elsewhere in the Company’s filings with the SEC from time to time, including, but not limited to, its Annual Report on Form 10-K and its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q. The Company does not undertake to update any forward-looking statements to reflect changed assumptions, the impact of circumstances or events that may arise after the date of the forward-looking statements, or other changes over time, except as required by law.
