Item 8.01. Other Events.

~~Separate~~As ~~Trading~~previously disclosed on a Current Report on Form 8-K dated January 27, 2026 (the “Current Report”), Praetorian Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) consummated its initial public offering (the “IPO”) of 22,000,000 units (the “Units”). Each Unit consists of one Class A ordinary share of the Company, par value $0.0001 (the “Class A Ordinary Shares”), and ~~Warrants~~ one-third of one redeemable warrant, with each whole warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one Class A Ordinary Share for $11.50 per share. The Units were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $220,000,000. The Company granted Clear Street LLC, as representative of the several underwriters (collectively, the “Underwriters”) a 45-day option to purchase up to 3,300,000 additional Units to cover over-allotments, if any.

~~On March~~As ~~13,~~previously ~~2026,~~disclosed ~~Praetorian Acquisition Corp. (~~in the ~~“Company”)~~Current ~~announced that~~Report, ~~commencing~~simultaneously onwith ~~March 16, 2026,~~ the ~~holders~~ closing of the ~~units~~IPO, ~~issued in~~ the Company’s ~~initial~~consummated ~~public~~the ~~offering~~private placement (the “~~Units~~IPO Private Placement”), ~~each~~with ~~consisting~~Praetorian ofSponsor ~~one~~LLC ~~Class A ordinary share~~ of ~~the Company~~4,670,000 ~~par~~warrants ~~value $0.0001 per share~~ (the “~~Class~~Private APlacement ~~Ordinary Shares~~Warrants”), ~~and~~at ~~one-third~~a ~~of one redeemable~~price ~~warrant~~ of ~~the~~$1.00 ~~Company~~per ~~(each,~~Private aPlacement “Warrant”), ~~with~~generating ~~each~~gross ~~whole~~proceeds ~~Warrant~~of ~~entitling the holder thereof to purchase one Class A Ordinary Share for~~ $~~11.50 per share~~4, ~~may elect to separately trade the Class A Ordinary Shares and the Warrants included in the Units~~670,000.

As previously disclosed in the Current Report, the Company also issued in a private placement to the Underwriters 165,000 Class A Ordinary Shares upon the consummation of the IPO (the “Representative Shares”). The Representative Shares are identical to the Class A Ordinary Shares included in the Units, except that these securities cannot be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated or be the subject of any hedging, short sale, derivative, put or call transaction that would result in the economic disposition of the securities by any person for a period of 180 days from the date of the IPO except as permitted under FINRA Rule 5110(e)(2). The Underwriters agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any Representative Shares until the completion of the Company’s initial business combination. In addition, the Underwriters have agreed (i) to waive their redemption rights with respect to the Representative Shares in connection with the completion of the initial business combination, (ii) to waive their redemption rights with respect to the Representative Shares in connection with a shareholder vote to approve an amendment to the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association (A) to modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to redeem 100% of the public shares if the Company does not complete its initial business combination within 24 months from the closing of the IPO (or 27 months if the Company executed a letter of intent for an initial business combination within 24 months from the closing of the IPO) or (B) with respect to any other provision relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-initial business combination activity, and (iii) to waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Company’s trust account with respect to the Representative Shares if the Company fails to complete the initial business combination within 24 months from the closing of the IPO (or 27 months, as applicable). The issuance of the Representative Shares was made in reliance on the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, as the transaction did not involve a public offering.

Subsequently, on March 12, 2026, the Underwriters exercised the over-allotment option in full, and the closing of the issuance and sale of the additional Units (the “Over-Allotment Option Units”) occurred on March 16, 2026. The total aggregate issuance by the Company of 3,300,000 Units at a price of $10.00 per Unit resulted in total gross proceeds of $33,000,000. On March 16, 2026, simultaneously with the sale of the Over-Allotment Option Units, the Company consummated the private sale of an additional 330,000 Private Placement Warrants, generating gross proceeds of $330,000 (the “OA Private Placement,” together with the IPO Private Placement, the “Private Placements”). The Private Placement Warrants were issued pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, as the transaction did not involve a public offering. Simultaneously with the sale of the Over-Allotment Option Units and the OA Private Placement, the Company issued an additional 24,750 Representative Shares to the Underwriters on the same terms and conditions as the Representative Shares issued in connection with the IPO. Including the Over-Allotment Option Units, the Company has now sold a total of 25,300,000 Units, generating total gross proceeds of $253,000,000, and a total of 5,000,000 warrants in Private Placements to Praetorian Sponsor LLC, generating total gross proceeds of $5,000,000.

A total of $253,000,000 of the net proceeds from the sale of the Units in the IPO (including the Over-Allotment Option Units) and the Private Placements were deposited in the Company’s trust account established for the benefit of the Company’s public stockholders. An unaudited pro forma balance sheet as of March 16, 2026, reflecting receipt of the proceeds received by the Company in connection with the consummation of the IPO (including the Over-Allotment Option Units) and the Private Placements, is included in this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 99.1.
