Positive
  • Leadership continuity: Promotion of an experienced internal counsel may strengthen legal oversight and strategic alignment.
  • Retention incentives: Multi-year RSU grant aligns executive interests with shareholder value while limiting near-term cash outflow.
Negative
  • Incremental cost: Higher salary and bonus opportunity modestly increase SG&A expenses.
  • Share dilution: Issuance of 16,098 RSUs, though small, adds to outstanding equity.

Insights

TL;DR: Internal promotion enhances continuity; compensation terms are routine, with minimal balance-sheet impact.

The elevation of Ms. Nguyen consolidates legal and compliance leadership while signaling board confidence in existing talent. Salary and bonus levels are in line with comparable EVP roles at similarly sized tech firms; the $381k base and up-to-70 % incentive potential represent a manageable expense relative to FY-24 operating costs (<0.5 %). The 16,098 RSU grant introduces limited dilution (�0.02 % of basic shares) and vests over four years, aiding retention. Overall governance impact is positive, but the filing lacks operational or financial catalysts, making it unlikely to move the stock.

Item 1.01    Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On August 4, 2025, Quanterix Corporation (the “Company”) entered into a Cooperation Agreement (the “Cooperation Agreement”), by and between the Company, on the one hand, and Kent Lake PR LLC, a Puerto Rico limited liability company and the general partner of Kent Lake Partners LP, a Delaware limited partnership (together, “Kent Lake”), on the other hand.
In accordance with the terms of the Cooperation Agreement, the Company has agreed to retain an executive search firm to identify a potential candidate to be appointed to the board of directors of the Company (the “Board”). The Company has agreed to provide the executive search firm with a mutually agreed upon director candidate specification. The Company and Kent Lake have agreed to cooperate to select an individual from the executive search firm’s list of six (6) candidates and appoint such person as a Class I director on or prior to December 1, 2025 (the “Target Date”). In the event that the Company and Kent Lake do not agree on the selection of a candidate prior to the Target Date, Kent Lake will select one (1) candidate to be appointed to the Board from the Company’s three (3) preferred candidates.
The Company has also agreed to seek stockholder approval at the 2025 annual meeting of stockholders of an amendment to the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation to declassify the Board (the “Declassification Proposal”). If the Declassification Proposal is approved by stockholders, (i) the directors nominated for election at the 2026 annual meeting of stockholders and those nominated at subsequent annual meetings of stockholders would be elected to one-year terms, and (ii) the directors serving in Class I and Class II as of immediately prior to the 2025 annual meeting of stockholders would complete their three-year terms, ending at the 2027 and 2028 annual meeting of stockholders, respectively.
The Company has also agreed to amend the Company’s Restated Bylaws (the “Bylaws”) prior to the 2025 annual meeting of stockholders to adopt a majority voting standard for uncontested director elections, with a plurality voting standard for contested director elections.
Finally, under the Cooperation Agreement, Kent Lake has agreed to abide by certain voting commitments, customary standstill obligations and mutual non-disparagement and no litigation provisions until the date that is thirty days prior to the nomination deadline under the Bylaws for the nomination of director candidates for election to the Board at the 2027 annual meeting of stockholders, unless the Cooperation Agreement is earlier terminated in accordance with its terms. The scope of these commitments, obligations, provisions and other terms are set forth in full in the Cooperation Agreement.
The foregoing description of the Cooperation Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Cooperation Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
Item 7.01    Regulation FD Disclosure.
On August 4, 2025, the Company issued a press release announcing the matters addressed above. A copy of the press release is furnished with this report as Exhibit 99.1.
The information in this Current Report on Form 8-K under Item 7.01 and Exhibit 99.1 attached hereto is being furnished to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and shall not be deemed to be “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference into any of the Company’s filings with the SEC under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.
