Item 5.07. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
Quanterix Corporation (the
“Company” or “Quanterix”) convened its 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual
Meeting”) on September 23, 2025 at 9:00am ET (the “Original Meeting Time”). The Company adjourned the Annual Meeting without the
transaction of any business. The reconvened Annual Meeting will be held on Monday, September 29, 2025 at 10:00am ET.
Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.
As described above, the Company’s Annual Meeting was convened
and adjourned, without any business being conducted.
The meeting was adjourned to allow additional time for the Company’s
stockholders to consider and vote on the proposals set forth in the Company’s definitive proxy statement filed with the US Securities
and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on August 25, 2025 (the “Proxy Statement”). The Company has received strong
support for each of the proposals. However, the proposals seeking stockholder approval to amend the Company’s Charter to eliminate
the supermajority stockholder voting requirements to amend certain provisions of the Company’s Charter and to permit stockholders
to amend the Company’s Bylaws (Proposals 5 and 6 in the Proxy Statement) had not yet achieved the required affirmative vote of at
least 75% of the Company’s outstanding voting power at the Original Meeting Time.
The
Annual Meeting will reconvene at 10:00am ET on Monday, September 29, 2025, in virtual format at www.cesonlineservices.com/qtrxam_vm.
Stockholders who wish to attend the adjourned meeting must pre-register at www.cesonlineservices.com/qtrxam_vm
by 10:00am ET on September 28, 2025.
During the adjournment, the Company will continue to solicit votes
from its stockholders with respect to the proposals set forth in the Proxy Statement. The Company’s Board of Directors unanimously
recommends that stockholders of record at the close of business on July 31, 2025, vote FOR the proposals identified in the Company’s
Proxy Statement, including the two proposals to eliminate the supermajority vote requirements. At the Original Meeting Time, 99% of shares
voted had voted FOR those two proposals, but those shares represented only 74.8% of the Company’s common stock outstanding.
Proxies previously submitted in respect of the Annual Meeting will
be voted at the adjourned Annual Meeting unless properly revoked, and stockholders who have previously submitted a proxy or otherwise
voted do not need to take any action.
The Company
encourages all stockholders of record on July 31, 2025, who have not yet voted to vote by September 28, 2025, at 11:59pm ET. Stockholders
who have any questions or require any assistance with completing a proxy or voting instruction form or who do not have the required materials
may contact Sodali & Co., toll-free, (800) 662-5200, or by email, qtrx@info.sodali.com.
If the number of additional shares of common stock voted at the adjourned
Annual Meeting is not sufficient to approve the amendments to eliminate supermajority voting requirements, the Company may adjourn the
Annual Meeting again.

definitive Proxy Statement was filed by the Company with the SEC on August 25, 2025, and should be read in conjunction with the information

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
Statements included in this Form 8-K that are not historical in nature
or do not relate to current facts are intended to be, and are hereby identified as, forward-looking statements for purposes of the safe
harbor provided by Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
Forward-looking statements include, among other things, statements about the Annual Meeting. Words and phrases such as “may,”

“is likely,” “look ahead,” “look forward,” “believes,” “will,” “intends,”
“estimates,” “strategy,” “plan,” “could,” “potential,” “possible”
and variations of such words and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements
are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that are difficult to predict with regard to, among other things, timing, extent, likelihood
and degree of occurrence, which could cause actual results to differ materially from anticipated results. Factors that could materially

described under “Item 1A - Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 and any risk
factors disclosed in any subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q.
All forward-looking statements, expressed or implied, included in this
Form 8-K are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements contained or referred to herein. If one or more events
related to these or other risks or uncertainties materialize, or if Quanterix’s underlying assumptions prove to be incorrect, actual
results may differ materially from what Quanterix anticipates. Quanterix cautions readers not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking
statements, which speak only as of the date they are made and are based on information available at that time. Quanterix does not assume
any obligation to update or otherwise revise any forward-looking statements to reflect circumstances or events that occur after the date
the forward-looking statements were made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events except as required by federal securities
laws.
