Datadog, Inc. 8-K Report, Rights Modification (Apr 22, 2026)

Filed April 22, 2026For Securities:DDOG

Summary

Datadog, Inc. has officially completed its redomiciliation from Delaware to Nevada, effective April 21, 2026. This strategic move, approved by stockholders at a special meeting, involved converting the company from a Delaware corporation to a Nevada corporation through a plan of conversion. The redomiciliation did not alter Datadog's business operations, management, assets, liabilities, or the number of employees, aiming primarily to adjust the legal and regulatory framework governing the company. While the internal affairs of Datadog will now be governed by Nevada law, and the company has adopted new Nevada-based articles of incorporation and bylaws, the transition is designed to be seamless for shareholders. Stock ownership, equity awards, and the stock trading symbol (DDOG) remain unchanged. Investors should note that while the operational impact is minimal, there may be subtle changes in stockholder rights as outlined in the definitive proxy statement and associated Nevada legal documents.
