Explanatory Note
 
On November 17, 2020, Solitron Devices, Inc. filed a Current Report on Form 8-K (the "Original Form 8-K"). The Original Form 8-K inadvertently furnished disclosure under Item 7.01 that related to a completed financial period. This Amendment No. 1 on Form 8-K/A furnishes such disclosure under Item 2.02 instead of under Item 7.01 as previously reported and makes some additional disclosures, primarily related to forward-looking statements. Except as stated in the Explanatory Note, no other information contained in the Original Form 8-K is being amended, updated or otherwise revised.

This item of Form 8-K contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties that could materially affect actual results, including statements regarding the Company’s expected net income for the first half of fiscal 2021. Factors that could cause actual results to vary from current expectations and forward-looking statements contained in this Form 8-K include, but are not limited to: (1) actual net income for fiscal year 2021; (2) the global impact of the pandemic outbreak of coronavirus (COVID-19) and its impact on our operations; and (3) other factors contained in the Company’s Securities and Exchange Commission filings, including its most recent Form 10-K, 10-Q and 8-K reports.
