Sharps Technology, Inc. Reminds Shareholders to Vote Before Important Shareholder Meeting on March 28, 2025
March 20 2025 - 7:00AM
Sharps Technology, Inc. (Nasdaq: STSS) (the “Company” or “Sharps”),
an innovative medical device and pharmaceutical packaging company
offering patented, best-in-class syringe products, is reminding
shareholders to vote their proxy in favor of the Company’s proposal
before the shareholder meeting, which is scheduled to be held on
March 28, 2025, at 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time. Voting 'FOR' the
reverse stock split of the Company’s common stock is imperative for
Sharps to maintain compliance with Nasdaq’s minimum bid price
requirement and ensure that the Company’s common stock remains
listed on Nasdaq and is not delisted to the OTC Markets.

shares, please contact our proxy solicitation firm at:

Robert M. Hayes, Chief Executive Officer,
commented on the importance of having a positive shareholder
vote: “Please take this important step to protect
your investment by voting for the reverse stock split to help
ensure that Sharps Technology’s stock remains listed on Nasdaq.
Maintaining a Nasdaq listing is crucial for ensuring strong
liquidity and providing a broad range of investors the opportunity
to trade the stock. If we do not receive the necessary votes, we
will be delisted to the OTC Markets, where liquidity could decrease
substantially, creating additional challenges for Sharps in meeting
its critical goals. We thank the shareholders who have already
voted in favor of the reverse stock split proposal and kindly ask
those who have not yet voted to please cast their approval
today."
Understanding the Importance of a Positive
Vote:
- Without shareholder approval of the
reverse stock split proposal at the March 28, 2025, special
shareholder meeting, we expect that our stock will be delisted from
Nasdaq in the near future. We have requested a hearing with Nasdaq
and at that hearing we will present our plan to complete the
reverse stock split to achieve the minimum $1.00 Nasdaq stock price
requirement. A positive vote outcome will enable Sharps to maintain
its Nasdaq listing and prevent delisting to OTC Markets.
- If our common stock is delisted from
Nasdaq, this could adversely affect the value of the securities
that you hold and our trading volume, making it more difficult to
buy and sell our securities.
- If shareholders approve the reverse
stock split to remain on Nasdaq, the listing should enable Sharps
to maintain the current liquidity profile and ease of trading of
its common stock, providing a broad range of investors with the
ability to trade. Maintaining a Nasdaq listing also helps sustain
interest from analysts and brokers covering and trading Sharps'
securities.
Sharps Technology thanks its current
shareholders for their patience during this process, but it is
crucial for shareholders to understand that failing to vote yes on
this matter will lead to the risk of delisting from Nasdaq, which
would result in the stock trading on the OTC Markets. This would
not be in the best interest of shareholders, as it could have a
significant consequence on market liquidity and impact the
Company’s growth initiatives.
HOW YOU CAN HELP:
The Definitive Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A regarding the
special meeting of our shareholders (the “Special Meeting”) states
that it is scheduled to be held on Friday, March 28, 2025.
Shareholders as of the Special Meeting’s record date, January 29,
2025, are entitled to vote at the Special Meeting and are
encouraged to submit their proxy votes beforehand. Sharps’ Board of
Directors will unanimously vote in favor of the reverse stock split
proposal and urges all shareholders to approve the proposal by
voting 'FOR' the reverse stock split. Please vote
your shares 'FOR' the proposal today by responding
to the proxy materials that were previously sent to all
shareholders.

REVERSE STOCK SPLIT PROCESS:
If the proposal is approved, after the reverse stock split, each
shareholder will hold the same percentage interest in the Company
as before the reverse stock split; all shareholders will simply
hold fewer shares. A reverse stock split decreases the number of
our outstanding shares and increases the price per share – and is a
mechanism often used by companies to regain and/or maintain
compliance with an exchange’s “minimum bid price” listing
requirement. For the purpose of regaining compliance with Nasdaq
requirements, Nasdaq’s minimum listing price per share is
$1.00.

Definitive Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A, which was filed with
the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on February 11, 2025,

benefit from future potential shareholder value creation by
maintaining the Company’s Nasdaq listing. We appreciate your
continued interest in Sharps Technology and look forward to sharing
more with you as developments occur in future communications.
