Sharps Technology Inc. Adopts Amended Bylaws and Code of Ethics

What Happened

  • On January 15, 2026, Sharps Technology, Inc. (STSS) announced that its Board adopted amended and restated Bylaws and an amended and restated Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, effective immediately.
  • The Board also approved and adopted charters for three standing committees: the Audit Committee, the Compensation Committee, and the Nominating Committee. Copies of the Bylaws, Code of Ethics and the three committee charters were filed as exhibits to the 8-K.

Key Details

  • Bylaws changes include: requiring stockholder actions to occur at duly called meetings, adopting advance notice rules for stockholder proposals and director nominations, and adding a Nevada exclusive forum provision for certain actions. (Effective Jan 15, 2026)
  • The updated Code of Business Conduct and Ethics applies to all officers, directors and employees; its adoption did not grant any waivers to any individual and is intended to align governance and compliance best practices.
  • Board adopted charters for: Audit Committee (Exhibit 99.1), Compensation Committee (Exhibit 99.2), and Nominating Committee (Exhibit 99.3). The Code of Ethics will be posted at www.sharpstechnology.com/investors/governance-documents.

Why It Matters

  • These governance updates formalize how shareholders may bring proposals and nominate directors, which can affect shareholder engagement and proxy processes.
  • Adoption of committee charters and an updated Code of Ethics signals the company is strengthening corporate governance, oversight and compliance practices—information investors use to assess board structure and risk controls.
  • All changes are administrative/governance-related (not financial); investors should view this as structural housekeeping intended to clarify procedures and align policies with current best practices.
