An “energetic event” could be a battery failure, including it blowing up, or a short circuit in the electronics. It could also include not shielding the electronics from solar radiation. Satellites tend to build up a static charge and if it isn’t dissipated could cause the system to fail. However, never rule out space junk hitting it.

“... that some kind of energetic event has occurred...”
Maybe they shouldn’t have named it Hit-o-me.
