NEW YORK, April 24, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Sharps Technology, Inc. (NASDAQ: “STSS” and “STSSW”) ("Sharps"), an innovative medical device and pharmaceutical packaging company offering patented, best-in-class smart-safety syringe products to the healthcare industry, today announced that it will effect a 1-for-300 reverse stock split (the "reverse split") of its common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the "Common Stock"), that will become effective on April 27, 2025 at 11:59 PM Eastern Time, before the opening of trading on The Nasdaq Capital Market ("Nasdaq"). Sharps has requested that its Common Stock begin trading on April 28, 2025, on a post-reverse split basis on the Nasdaq under the existing symbol "STSS".
The reverse split is primarily intended to bring Sharps into compliance with the minimum bid price requirement for maintaining its listing on the Nasdaq. The new CUSIP number for the Common Stock following the reverse split will be 82003F309.
The reverse split was effected by the Sharps’ Board of Directors (the "Board"), pursuant to Section 78.207 of the Nevada Revised Statutes, without shareholder approval as the reverse split provides for a proportionate reduction in the number of both the authorized and outstanding shares and does not adversely affect any other classes of stock of the Company. The Company’s amended and restated Articles of Incorporation, filed with the Nevada Secretary of State, reduce the authorized common shares from 500,000,000 to 1,666,667 and effectuate a reverse split of 1-for-300.
