Item 8.01

Other Events.

As GigCapital7 Corp., a Cayman Islands exempted company (“GigCapital7”), stated in its Current Report on Forms 8-K that it filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on October 15 and November 26, 2025, GigCapital7 and Hadron Energy, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) will conduct meetings with members of the investment community in connection with certain financing activities in furtherance of their previously announced business combination. The Company is contemplating a private capital raise through the issuance of simple agreements for future equity (“SAFEs”) in one or more private placements exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). An updated copy of an investor presentation intended to be used in such meetings is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8 K and incorporated herein by reference. In addition, from time to time, GigCapital7 and the Company may use the investor presentation in non-deal roadshow meetings and in connection with discussions regarding a potential private investment in public equity (“PIPE”) financing for the post-closing company, subject to market conditions and other factors.

The information in this Item 8.01 (including Exhibit 99.1) 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 it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.

Additional Information and Where to Find It

In connection with the proposed business combination between GigCapital7 and the Company (the “Business Combination”), GigCapital7 and the Company has filed a registration statement on Form S-4, and intends to file amended registration statements on Form S-4/A (the initial registration and subsequent amendments, collectively, the “Registration Statement”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), which will include preliminary and definitive proxy statements to be distributed to GigCapital7’s shareholders in connection with GigCapital7’s solicitation of proxies for the shareholder vote in connection with the Business Combination and related transactions, the prospectus relating to the offer of securities to be issued in connection with the Business Combination, and other matters to be described in the Registration Statement. After the Registration Statement has been filed and declared effective by the SEC, GigCapital7 will mail a definitive proxy statement/prospectus/consent solicitation statement and other relevant documents to its shareholders as of the record date established for voting on the proposed Business Combination.

BEFORE MAKING ANY VOTING OR INVESTMENT DECISION, GIGCAPITAL7’S SHAREHOLDERS AND OTHER INTERESTED PARTIES ARE URGED TO READ, WHEN AVAILABLE, THE PRELIMINARY PROXY STATEMENT/REGISTRATION STATEMENT, AND AMENDMENTS THERETO, AND THE DEFINITIVE PROXY STATEMENT/REGISTRATION STATEMENT AND ALL OTHER RELEVANT DOCUMENTS FILED OR THAT WILL BE FILED WITH THE SEC IN CONNECTION WITH GIGCAPITAL7’S SOLICITATION OF PROXIES FOR THE EXTRAORDINARY GENERAL MEETING OF ITS SHAREHOLDERS TO BE HELD TO APPROVE THE BUSINESS COMBINATION AGREEMENT, THE BUSINESS COMBINATION AND OTHER MATTERS AS DESCRIBED IN THE PROXY STATEMENT/REGISTRATION STATEMENT BECAUSE THESE DOCUMENTS WILL CONTAIN IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT GIGCAPITAL7, THE COMPANY AND THE PROPOSED TRANSACTIONS. Shareholders and other interested parties may obtain a copy of these documents, without charge, at the SEC’s website located at www.sec.gov or by directing a written request to GigCapital7 Corp., Attn: Corporate Secretary, 1731 Embarcadero Rd., Suite 200, Palo Alto, CA.

NEITHER THE SEC NOR ANY STATE SECURITIES REGULATORY AGENCY HAS APPROVED OR DISAPPROVED THE TRANSACTIONS DESCRIBED HEREIN, PASSED UPON THE MERITS OR FAIRNESS OF THE TRANSACTIONS OR ANY RELATED TRANSACTIONS OR PASSED UPON THE ADEQUACY OR ACCURACY OF THE DISCLOSURE IN THIS CURRENT REPORT. ANY REPRESENTATION TO THE CONTRARY CONSTITUTES A CRIMINAL OFFENSE.

Participants in the Solicitation

The Company, GigCapital7 and their respective directors, executive officers, management and employees, under SEC rules, may be deemed to be participants in a solicitation of proxies of GigCapital7’s shareholders in connection with the Business Combination and related transactions. Investors and shareholders may obtain more detailed information regarding the names, affiliations, and interests of GigCapital7’s directors and executive officers in its filings with the SEC, including GigCapital7’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, filed with the SEC on March 6, 2025, as amended by Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-K/A filed with the SEC on April 16, 2025. Information regarding the persons who may, under SEC rules, be deemed participants in the solicitation of proxies of GigCapital7’s shareholders in connection with the Business Combination will be set forth in the proxy statement/prospectus, along with information concerning the interests of the Company’s and GigCapital7’s participants in the solicitation. Such interests may in some cases be different from those of the Company’s or GigCapital7’s equity holders generally. Investors and security holders may obtain free copies of these documents as described above.

Nothing in this Current Report should be regarded as a representation by any person that the forward-looking statements set forth herein will be achieved or that any of the contemplated results of such forward-looking statements will be achieved.
