PROXY STATEMENT

FOR THE 2025 ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT THE PROXY MATERIALS AND VOTING

What Is the Purpose of These Proxy Materials?

We are making these proxy materials available to you in connection with the solicitation of proxies by the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Shattuck Labs, Inc. (“we,” “us,” “our” or the “Company”) for use at the 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”) to be held virtually on Thursday, July 10, 2025 at 11:30 a.m. Eastern Time, or at any other time following adjournment or postponement thereof. You are invited to participate in the Annual Meeting and to vote on the proposals described in this Proxy Statement. The proxy materials are first being made available to our stockholders on or about May 21, 2025.

Why Did I Receive a Notice of Internet Availability?

Pursuant to U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules, we are furnishing the proxy materials to our stockholders primarily via the Internet instead of mailing printed copies. This process allows us to expedite our stockholders’ receipt of proxy materials, lower the costs of printing and mailing the proxy materials and reduce the environmental impact of our Annual Meeting. If you received a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials (the “Notice”), you will not receive a printed copy of the proxy materials unless you request one. The Notice provides instructions on how to access the proxy materials for the Annual Meeting via the Internet, how to request a printed set of proxy materials and how to vote your shares.

Why Are We Holding a Virtual Annual Meeting?

We have adopted a virtual meeting format for the Annual Meeting to provide a consistent experience to all stockholders regardless of geographic location. We believe this expands stockholder access, improves communications and lowers our costs while reducing the environmental impact of the meeting. In structuring our virtual Annual Meeting, our goal is to enhance rather than constrain stockholder participation in the meeting, and we have designed the meeting to provide stockholders with the same rights and opportunities to participate as they would have at an in-person meeting.

Who Can Vote?

Only stockholders of record at the close of business on May 14, 2025 (the “Record Date”) are entitled to notice of the Annual Meeting and to vote on the proposals described in this Proxy Statement. At the close of business on the Record Date, 47,903,215 shares of our common stock were issued and outstanding.

What Is the Difference between Holding Shares as a Registered Stockholder and as a Beneficial Owner?

Registered Stockholder: Shares Registered in Your Name

If your shares of common stock are registered directly in your name with our transfer agent, Equiniti Trust Company, LLC, you are considered to be, with respect to those shares of common stock, the registered stockholder, and these proxy materials are being sent directly to you by us.

##### Table of Contents

Beneficial Owner: Shares Registered in the Name of a Broker, Fiduciary or Custodian

If your shares of common stock are held by a broker, fiduciary or custodian, you are considered the beneficial owner of shares of common stock held in “street name,” and these proxy materials are being forwarded to you from that broker, fiduciary or custodian.

How Can I Participate in the Virtual Annual Meeting?

Stockholders of record as of the close of business on the Record Date are entitled to participate in and vote at the Annual Meeting. To participate in the Annual Meeting, including to vote, ask questions and view the list of registered stockholders as of the Record Date during the meeting, stockholders will need to register in advance following the instructions below.

We will try to answer as many stockholder-submitted questions as time permits that comply with the Annual Meeting rules of conduct. We reserve the right to edit profanity or other inappropriate language and to exclude questions regarding topics that are not pertinent to meeting matters or Company business. If we receive substantially similar questions, we may group such questions together and provide a single response to avoid repetition.

The meeting webcast will begin promptly at 11:30 a.m. Eastern Time. Online check-in will begin approximately 15 minutes before then, and we encourage you to allow ample time for check-in procedures. If you experience technical difficulties during the check-in process or during the meeting, please call the technical support number that will be included in the email containing your access link to the meeting. Additional information regarding the rules and procedures for participating in the Annual Meeting will be set forth in our meeting rules of conduct, which stockholders can view during the meeting at the meeting website.

Meeting Registration Process for Registered Stockholders

If your shares are registered directly in your name with our transfer agent, you can register for the Annual Meeting at either www.proxydocs.com/STTK or www.proxypush.com/STTK by following the instructions on the website. As part of the registration process, you will be asked to enter the control number located on your proxy card or Notice. Upon completing your registration, you will receive further instructions via email, including a unique link that will allow you to access the Annual Meeting and vote and submit questions during the Annual Meeting.

Meeting Registration Process for Beneficial Owners

If your shares are held in street name, you can register for the Annual Meeting at www.proxydocs.com/STTK by following the instructions on the website. In addition, it is important that you also follow the instructions you receive from your broker, fiduciary or custodian about participating in the Annual Meeting, which may include a requirement to obtain a legal proxy from them and submit a copy during the advance registration process for the meeting.

What Am I Voting on?

The proposals to be voted on at the Annual Meeting are as follows:

| (1) | Election of three Class II director nominees to serve until the 2028 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (“Proposal 1”); and

##### Table of Contents

How Does the Board Recommend That I Vote?

The Board recommends that you vote your shares “FOR” each director nominee in Proposal 1 and “FOR” Proposal 2.

What If Another Matter Is Properly Brought before the Annual Meeting?

As of the date of filing this Proxy Statement, the Board knows of no other matters that will be presented for consideration at the Annual Meeting. If any other matters are properly brought before the Annual Meeting, it is the intention of the persons named as proxies in the proxy card to vote on such matters in accordance with their best judgment.

How Many Votes Do I Have?

Each share of common stock is entitled to one vote on each proposal to be voted on at the Annual Meeting.

What Does It Mean If I Receive More Than One Set of Proxy Materials?

If you receive more than one set of proxy materials, your shares may be registered in more than one name or held in different accounts. Please cast your vote with respect to each set of proxy materials that you receive to ensure that all of your shares are voted.

How Do I Vote?

Even if you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, we recommend that you also submit your vote as early as possible in advance so that your vote will be counted if you later decide not to, or are unable to, virtually attend the Annual Meeting.

Registered Stockholder: Shares Registered in Your Name

If you are the registered stockholder, you may vote your shares online during the virtual Annual Meeting (see “How Can I Participate in the Virtual Annual Meeting?” above) or by proxy in advance of the Annual Meeting by Internet (at www.proxypush.com/STTK) or, if you requested paper copies of the proxy materials, by completing and mailing a proxy card or by telephone (at 866-870-7493).

Beneficial Owner: Shares Registered in the Name of a Broker, Fiduciary or Custodian

If you are the beneficial owner, you may vote your shares online during the virtual Annual Meeting (see “How Can I Participate in the Virtual Annual Meeting?” above) or you may direct your broker, fiduciary or custodian how to vote in advance of the Annual Meeting by following the instructions they provide.

What Happens If I Do Not Vote?

Registered Stockholder: Shares Registered in Your Name

If you are the registered stockholder and do not vote in one of the ways described above, your shares will not be voted at the Annual Meeting and will not be counted toward the quorum requirement.

Beneficial Owner: Shares Registered in the Name of a Broker, Fiduciary or Custodian

If you are the beneficial owner and do not direct your broker, fiduciary or custodian how to vote your shares, your broker, fiduciary or custodian will only be able to vote your shares with respect to proposals considered to be “routine.” Your broker, fiduciary or custodian is not entitled to vote your shares with respect to

##### Table of Contents

“non-routine” proposals, which we refer to as a “broker non-vote.” Whether a proposal is considered routine or non-routine is subject to stock exchange rules and final determination by the stock exchange. Even with respect to routine matters, some brokers choose not to exercise their discretionary voting authority. As a result, we urge you to direct your broker, fiduciary or custodian how to vote your shares on all proposals to ensure that your vote is counted.

What If I Sign and Return a Proxy Card or Otherwise Vote but Do Not Indicate Specific Choices?

Registered Stockholder: Shares Registered in Your Name

The shares represented by each signed and returned proxy will be voted at the Annual Meeting by the persons named as proxies in the proxy card in accordance with the instructions indicated on the proxy card. However, if you are the registered stockholder and sign and return your proxy card without giving specific instructions, the persons named as proxies in the proxy card will vote your shares in accordance with the recommendations of the Board. Your shares will be counted toward the quorum requirement.

Beneficial Owner: Shares Registered in the Name of a Broker, Fiduciary or Custodian

If you are the beneficial owner and do not direct your broker, fiduciary or custodian how to vote your shares, your broker, fiduciary or custodian will only be able to vote your shares with respect to proposals considered to be “routine.” Your broker, fiduciary or custodian is not entitled to vote your shares with respect to “non-routine” proposals, resulting in a broker non-vote with respect to such proposals.

Can I Change My Vote after I Submit My Proxy?

Registered Stockholder: Shares Registered in Your Name

If you are the registered stockholder, you may revoke your proxy at any time before the final vote at the Annual Meeting in any one of the following ways:

| (1) | You may complete and submit a new proxy card, but it must bear a later date than the original proxy card;

| (2) | You may submit new proxy instructions via telephone or the Internet;

| (3) | You may send a timely written notice that you are revoking your proxy to our Corporate Secretary at the address set forth on the first page of this Proxy Statement; or

| (4) | You may vote by attending the Annual Meeting virtually. However, your virtual attendance at the Annual Meeting will not, by itself, revoke your proxy.

Your last submitted vote is the one that will be counted.

Beneficial Owner: Shares Registered in the Name of a Broker, Fiduciary or Custodian

If you are the beneficial owner, you must follow the instructions you receive from your broker, fiduciary or custodian with respect to changing your vote.

What Is the Quorum Requirement?

The holders of a majority of the shares of common stock outstanding and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting must be present at the Annual Meeting, either virtually or represented by proxy, to constitute a quorum. A quorum is required to transact business at the Annual Meeting.

Your shares will be counted toward the quorum only if you submit a valid proxy (or a valid proxy is submitted on your behalf by your broker, fiduciary or custodian) or if you attend the Annual Meeting virtually

and vote. Abstentions and broker non-votes will be counted toward the quorum requirement. If there is no quorum, the chairman of the Annual Meeting or the holders of a majority of shares of common stock virtually present at the Annual Meeting, either personally or by proxy, may adjourn the Annual Meeting to another time or date.

How Many Votes Are Required to Approve Each Proposal and How Are Votes Counted?

Votes will be counted by BetaNXT Inc., the Inspector of Elections appointed for the Annual Meeting.

Proposal 1: Election of Directors

A nominee will be elected as a director at the Annual Meeting if the nominee receives a plurality of the votes cast “FOR” his or her election. “Plurality” means that the individuals who receive the highest number of votes cast “FOR” are elected as directors. Broker non-votes, if any, and votes that are withheld will not be counted as votes cast on the matter and will have no effect on the outcome of the election. Stockholders do not have cumulative voting rights for the election of directors.

Proposal 2: Ratification of Independent Auditor Selection

The affirmative vote of a majority of shares of common stock present or represented at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote on the matter is required for the ratification of the selection of KPMG LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2025. Abstentions will have the same effect as a vote “AGAINST” the proposal. Broker non-votes, if any, will have no effect on the outcome of the proposal.

Who Is Paying for This Proxy Solicitation?

We will pay the costs associated with the solicitation of proxies, including the preparation, assembly, printing and mailing of the proxy materials. We may also reimburse brokers, fiduciaries or custodians for the cost of forwarding proxy materials to beneficial owners of shares of common stock held in “street name.”

Our employees, officers and directors may solicit proxies in person or via telephone or the Internet. We will not pay additional compensation for any of these services.

How Can I Find out the Voting Results?

We expect to announce preliminary voting results at the Annual Meeting. Final voting results will be published in a Current Report on Form 8-K to be filed with the SEC within four business days after the Annual Meeting.

PROPOSAL 2: RATIFICATION OF INDEPENDENT AUDITOR SELECTION

Our Audit Committee has selected KPMG LLP (“KPMG”) as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2025. In this Proposal 2, we are asking stockholders to vote to ratify this selection. Representatives of KPMG are expected to be present at the Annual Meeting. They will have the opportunity to make a statement, if they desire to do so, and are expected to be available to respond to appropriate questions from stockholders.

Stockholder ratification of the selection of KPMG as the Company’s independent auditor is not required by law or our bylaws. However, we are seeking stockholder ratification as a matter of good corporate practice. If our stockholders fail to ratify the selection, the committee will reconsider its selection. Even if the selection is ratified, the committee, in its discretion, may direct the selection of a different independent auditor at any time during the year if it determines that such a change would be in the best interests of the Company and our stockholders.

KPMG has served as our independent auditor since 2018. The following table summarizes the audit fees billed and expected to be billed by KPMG for the indicated fiscal years and the fees billed by KPMG for all other services rendered during the indicated fiscal years. All services associated with such fees were pre-approved by our Audit Committee in accordance with the “Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures” described below.

|  | Year Ended December 31, |
Fee Category |  | 2024 |  |  | 2023 |
Audit Fees(1) |  | $ | 760,000 |  |  | $ | 640,902 |

All Other Fees(4) |  |  | — |  |  |  | — |
Total Fees |  | $ | 760,000 |  |  | $ | 640,902 |

(1) | Consists of fees for the audit of our annual financial statements, reviews of quarterly financial statements and services provided in connection with SEC filings, including consents and comfort letters.

(2) | Consists of fees for assurance and related services reasonably related to the performance of the audit or review of our financial statements.

(3) | Consists of fees for professional services for tax compliance, tax advice and tax planning.

(4) | Consists of fees for all other services.

Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures

Our Audit Committee has adopted procedures requiring the pre-approval of all audit and non-audit services performed by our independent auditor in order to assure that these services do not impair the auditor’s independence. These procedures generally approve the performance of specific services subject to a cost limit for all such services. This general approval is reviewed, and if necessary modified, at least annually. Management must obtain the specific prior approval of the committee for each engagement of our auditor to perform other audit-related or other non-audit services. The committee does not delegate its responsibility to approve services performed by our auditor to any member of management. The committee has delegated authority to the committee chair to pre-approve any audit or non-audit service to be provided to us by our auditor provided that the fees for such services do not exceed $100,000. Any approval of services by the committee chair pursuant to this delegated authority must be reported to the committee at its next regularly scheduled meeting.

Report of the Audit Committee

The Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed the audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024 with the Company’s management and with KPMG, the Company’s independent registered

The Audit Committee has also received the written disclosures and the letter from KPMG pursuant to applicable PCAOB requirements regarding its communications with the Audit Committee concerning independence, and the Audit Committee has discussed with KPMG its independence. Based on the foregoing, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board that the audited financial statements be included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 for filing with the SEC.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

Our business affairs are managed under the direction of our Board. Our Board has adopted a set of Principles of Corporate Governance as a framework for the governance of the Company, which is posted on our website located at ir.shattucklabs.com, under “Governance.”

Board Composition

Director Nomination Process

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is responsible for, among other things, overseeing succession planning for directors and building a qualified board to oversee management’s execution of the Company’s strategy and safeguard the long-term interests of stockholders. In this regard, the committee is charged with developing and recommending Board membership criteria to the Board for approval, evaluating the composition of the Board annually to assess the skills and experience that are currently represented on the Board and the skills and experience that the Board may find valuable in the future, and identifying, evaluating and recommending potential director candidates.

In identifying potential candidates for Board membership, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee considers recommendations from directors, stockholders, management and others, including, from time to time, third-party search firms, which it engaged in 2024, to assist it in locating qualified candidates. Once potential director candidates are identified, the committee, with the assistance of management, undertakes a vetting process that considers each candidate’s background, independence and fit with the Board’s priorities. As part of this vetting process, the committee, as well as other members of the Board and the CEO, may conduct interviews with the candidates. If the committee determines that a potential candidate meets the needs of the Board and has the desired qualifications, it recommends the candidate to the full Board for appointment or nomination and to the stockholders for election at the annual meeting.

Criteria for Board Membership

In assessing potential candidates for Board membership and in assessing Board composition, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee considers a wide range of factors, including directors’ experience, knowledge, integrity, understanding of our business environment and specific skills they may possess that are helpful to the Company (including leadership experience, financial expertise and industry knowledge). The committee seeks to balance the experience, skills and characteristics represented on the Board and does not assign specific weight to any of these factors. In addition, the committee generally believes it is important for all Board members to possess the highest personal and professional ethics, integrity and values, an inquisitive and objective perspective, a sense for priorities and balance, the ability and willingness to devote sufficient time and attention to Board matters, and a willingness to represent the long-term interests of all our stockholders.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee generally considers a potential director candidate’s ability to contribute to the diversity of skills, experiences, perspectives and backgrounds on the Board. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee assesses its effectiveness in balancing these considerations in connection with its annual evaluation of the composition of the Board. For example, our current Board includes directors with a variety of skills and experiences that are relevant to our business strategy, including directors with biotechnology industry, finance and investment and drug development experience. In addition, our Board includes three directors (33%) who self-identify as female and one director (11%) who self identifies as racially/ethnically diverse.

Stockholder Recommendations for Directors

It is the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee’s policy to consider written recommendations from stockholders for director candidates. The committee considers candidates recommended by our

12

##### Table of Contents

stockholders in the same manner as a candidate recommended by other sources. Any such recommendations should be submitted to the committee as described under “Stockholder Communications” and should include the same information required under our bylaws for nominating a director, as described under “Stockholder Proposals and Director Nominations for Next Year’s Annual Meeting.”

Board Leadership Structure

Dr. Golumbeski serves as our independent Chairman, while Dr. Schreiber serves as our Chief Executive Officer. Our Principles of Corporate Governance provide our Board with the flexibility to combine or separate the positions of Chairman and CEO. Currently, the Board believes that the roles of Chairman and CEO should be separate and that the Chairman should be an independent director as this structure enables our independent Chairman to oversee corporate governance matters and our CEO to focus on leading the Company’s business. At any time when there is not an independent Chairman, the Board will designate one or more independent directors to serve as lead director.

The independent directors have the opportunity to meet in executive sessions without management present at every regular Board meeting and at such other times as may be determined by the Chairman. The purpose of these executive sessions is to encourage and enhance communication among independent directors.

The Board believes that its programs for overseeing risk, as described under “Board Risk Oversight,” would be effective under a variety of leadership frameworks. Accordingly, the Board’s risk oversight function did not significantly impact its selection of the current leadership structure.

Director Independence

Nasdaq listing rules require a majority of a listed company’s board of directors to be comprised of independent directors who, in the opinion of the board of directors, do not have a relationship that would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director. Subject to specified exceptions, each member of a listed company’s audit, compensation and nominating committees must be independent, and audit and compensation committee members must satisfy additional independence criteria under the Exchange Act.

Our Board undertook a review of its composition and the independence of each director. Based upon information requested from and provided by each director concerning his or her background, employment and affiliations, our Board has determined that each of our current directors listed above under “Management and the Board,” with the exception of Dr. Schreiber, is an “independent director” as defined under Nasdaq listing rules. Dr. Schreiber is not an independent director because he is our Chief Executive Officer.

In making such determinations, our Board considered the relationships that each such non-employee director has with the Company and all other facts and circumstances our Board deemed relevant in determining independence, including the Company’s ordinary course business relationship with Tempus AI (pursuant to which Tempus AI and an affiliate provides certain contract research services to the Company) where Dr. Sasser serves as Chief Scientific Officer, but does not oversee, and has no material involvement with or material interest in, the services rendered to the Company, and the payments to Tempus AI, which represent an insignificant portion of its revenues. Our Board also determined that each of the directors currently serving on the Audit Committee and the Compensation Committee satisfy the additional independence criteria applicable to directors on such committee under Nasdaq listing rules and the rules and regulations established by the SEC.

Director Time Commitments

While Board members benefit from service on the boards of other companies and such service is encouraged, under the Board’s Principles of Corporate Governance, directors are expected to limit the number of

13

##### Table of Contents

other boards on which they serve so as not to interfere with their service as a director of the Company. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee considers directors’ adherence to these expectations, and directors are expected to advise the Chairperson of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee before accepting a seat on the board of another company.

Board Committees

Our Board has a separately designated Audit Committee, Compensation Committee and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, each of which is comprised solely of independent directors with the membership and responsibilities described below. Members serve on these committees until their resignation or until otherwise determined by our Board. Each of these committees is empowered to retain outside advisors as it deems appropriate, regularly reports its activities to the full Board and has a written charter, which is posted on our website located at ir.shattucklabs.com, under “Governance.”

Audit Committee. The primary responsibilities of our Audit Committee are to oversee the accounting and financial reporting processes of the Company, including the audits of the Company’s financial statements, the integrity of the financial statements and the annual review of the performance, effectiveness and independence of the outside auditor. This includes reviewing the financial information provided to stockholders and others and the adequacy and effectiveness of the Company’s internal controls. The committee also makes recommendations to the Board as to whether financial statements should be included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Ms. Boudreau qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert,” as that term is defined in the rules and regulations established by the SEC, and all members of the Audit Committee are “financially literate” under Nasdaq listing rules.

Compensation Committee. The primary responsibilities of our Compensation Committee are to periodically review and approve the compensation and other benefits for our senior officers and directors. This includes reviewing and approving corporate goals and objectives relevant to the compensation of our senior officers, evaluating the performance of these officers in light of those goals and objectives, and setting the officers’ compensation based on those evaluations. The committee also administers and makes recommendations to the Board regarding equity incentive plans that are subject to the Board’s approval and approves the grant of equity awards under the plans.

The Compensation Committee may delegate its authority to one or more subcommittees. The committee may also delegate authority to review and approve the compensation of our employees to certain of our executive officers. Even where the committee does not delegate authority, our executive officers will typically make recommendations to the committee regarding compensation to be paid to our employees and the size of equity

14

##### Table of Contents

awards under our equity incentive plans, but will not be present during voting or deliberations on their own compensation. The committee has the authority to engage outside advisors, such as compensation consultants, to assist it in carrying out its responsibilities. The Compensation Committee engaged Aon in 2024 to provide advice regarding the amount and form of executive and director compensation. The committee has determined that (1) Aon satisfies applicable independence criteria, and (2) Aon’s work with the Company does not raise any conflicts of interest, in each case under applicable Nasdaq listing rules and the rules and regulations established by the SEC.

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation. None of the members of our Compensation Committee has at any time during the prior three years been one of our officers or employees. None of our executive officers currently serves, or in the past fiscal year has served, as a member of the board or compensation committee of any entity that has one or more executive officers serving on our Board or Compensation Committee.

Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. The primary responsibilities of our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee are to engage in succession planning for the Board, develop and recommend to the Board criteria for identifying and evaluating qualified director candidates, and make recommendations to the Board regarding candidates for election or reelection to the Board at each annual stockholders’ meeting. In addition, the committee is responsible for overseeing our corporate governance practices and making recommendations to the Board concerning corporate governance matters. The committee is also responsible for making recommendations to the Board concerning the structure, composition and functioning of the Board and its committees.

Board Risk Oversight

We believe that risk management is an important part of establishing and executing on the Company’s business strategy. Our Board, as a whole and at the committee level, focuses its oversight on the most significant risks facing the Company and on the Company’s processes to identify, prioritize, assess, manage and mitigate those risks. The committees oversee specific risks within their purview, as follows:

| • |  | The Audit Committee has overall responsibility for overseeing the Company’s practices with respect to risk assessment and management. Additionally, the committee is responsible for overseeing management of risks related to our accounting and financial reporting processes, and information technology and cybersecurity.

| • |  | The Compensation Committee is responsible for overseeing management of risks related to our compensation policies and programs.

| • |  | The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is responsible for overseeing management of risks related to director succession planning and our corporate governance practices.

Our Board and its committees receive regular reports from members of the Company’s senior management on areas of material risk to the Company, including strategic, operational, financial, legal and regulatory risks. While our Board has an oversight role, management is principally tasked with direct responsibility for assessing and managing risks, including implementing processes and controls to mitigate their effects on the Company.

Other Corporate Governance Practices and Policies

Director Attendance

The Board met eight times during the year ended December 31, 2024. During 2024, each director then-serving on the Board attended at least 75% of the aggregate number of meetings of the Board and the committees on which he or she served during the period in which he or she was on the Board or committee. Directors are encouraged to attend the annual meeting of stockholders. Six of our directors then-serving on the Board attended the 2024 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.

##### Table of Contents

Stockholder Communications

Stockholders and other interested parties may communicate with our Board or a particular director by sending a letter addressed to the Board or a particular director to our Corporate Secretary at the address set forth on the first page of this Proxy Statement. These communications will be compiled and reviewed by our Corporate Secretary, who will determine whether the communication is appropriate for presentation to the Board or the particular director. The purpose of this screening is to allow the Board to avoid having to consider irrelevant or inappropriate communications (such as advertisements, solicitations and hostile communications).

To enable the Company to speak with a single voice, as a general matter, senior management serves as the primary spokesperson for the Company and is responsible for communicating with various constituencies, including stockholders, on behalf of the Company. Directors may participate in discussions with stockholders and other constituencies on issues where Board-level involvement is appropriate. In addition, the Board is kept informed by senior management of the Company’s stockholder engagement efforts.

Code of Conduct

Our Board has adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics that establishes the standards of ethical conduct applicable to all our directors, officers and employees, including our principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing similar functions. It addresses, among other matters, compliance with laws and policies, conflicts of interest, corporate opportunities, regulatory reporting, external communications, confidentiality requirements, insider trading, proper use of assets and how to report compliance concerns.

A copy of the code is available on our website located at ir.shattucklabs.com, under “Governance.” We intend to disclose future amendments to certain provisions of the code, and waivers of the code granted to our executive officers and directors, on our website to the extent required by applicable rules. Our Board is responsible for applying and interpreting the code in situations where questions are presented to it.

Director Compensation

Non-Employee Director Compensation Policy

We adopted a policy for compensating our non-employee directors with a combination of cash and equity. Our Compensation Committee, in consultation with Aon, its independent compensation consultant, periodically reviews non-employee director compensation and recommends changes based on competitive market data. Changes to our non-employee director compensation policy, as described below, became effective on June 21, 2024 and were implemented in order to better align director compensation with that of our peer group. During

16

##### Table of Contents

2024, each director who was not an employee was entitled to receive cash compensation as set forth below (all such amounts paid in quarterly installments):

Annual Cash Retainers |  | Amount ($) |
Board membership (other than the Chairman or Lead Independent Director) |  |  | 40,000 |
Chairman of the Board |  |  | 72,500 | *
Lead Independent Director (if applicable) |  |  | 60,000 |
Additional annual retainers |  |  |  |
Chair of the Audit Committee |  |  | 15,000 |
Chair of the Compensation Committee |  |  | 10,000 |
Chair of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee |  |  | 8,000 |
Member of the Audit Committee |  |  | 7,500 |
Member of the Compensation Committee |  |  | 5,000 |
Member of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee |  |  | 4,000 |

| * | Such amount was $70,000 prior to June 2024

In addition to the annual retainers, during 2024, each of our non-employee directors was eligible for equity awards consisting of, as applicable: (i) an initial, one-time award of stock options, restricted stock or restricted stock units, as determined in the discretion of the Compensation Committee, to each new non-employee director upon his or her election to the Board, with a grant date fair value equal to $250,000 that vests over a three-year period, subject to such director’s continued service; and (ii) an annual award of 27,700 stock options that vests on the first anniversary of the date of grant (or if sooner, immediately prior to the Company’s next annual meeting of stockholders). Prior to June 2024, our non-employee director compensation policy granted an annual award of 40,258 stock options with the same vesting noted above.

Under the non-employee director compensation policy, the total amount of cash retainers paid and equity awards (valued based on the grant date fair value) granted by the Company to any director for his or her service on the Board will not exceed $750,000 in any fiscal year.

We reimburse all necessary and reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by non-employee directors in connection with their service on our Board, subject to any applicable Company policies that may be in effect from time to time.

Our Board periodically reviews our director compensation program and may revise the compensation arrangements for our directors from time to time.

2024 Annual Bonus Program

At the beginning of 2024, the Compensation Committee established overall corporate performance goals and a methodology by which employees, including each of our NEOs, would be awarded an annual bonus based on achievement of the corporate performance goals. In addition, the Compensation Committee established that each of our NEOs would be eligible for bonus awards of up to the following target bonus amounts: Dr. Schreiber-$280,000, Mr. Neill-$183,200 and Dr. Pandite-$199,200. The corporate performance goals included key milestones with respect to the clinical development of SL-172154, continued research and development activities related to certain preclinical compounds, improvement of the Company’s manufacturing processes and other corporate and business development objectives. Personal responsibility for achievement of, and individual performance in support of, the enumerated corporate goals was also evaluated by the Compensation Committee in assessing final performance for the year. Following its assessment of the level of

23

##### Table of Contents

achievement of the corporate goals in December 2024, the Compensation Committee approved final bonus payments to the NEOs based on achievement of corporate performance goals at 60% of target and the evaluation of each NEO’s individual performance as follows: Dr. Schreiber-$168,000, Mr. Neill-$109,920 and Dr. Pandite-$119,520.

2024 Annual Equity Awards

See the 2024 Summary Compensation Table and Outstanding Equity Awards at 2024 Fiscal-Year End Table for further information with respect to these awards.

Post-Employment Compensation and Change in Control Payments and Benefits

Employment Agreements

Pursuant to the terms of the employment agreements with each of the NEOs, upon a termination without cause or resignation with good reason not in connection with a change in control, the NEO will receive, subject to the NEO’s execution and non-revocation of a release of claims in favor of the Company, or the Release Condition, and continued compliance with restrictive covenants: (i) severance payments equal to one times the NEO’s annual base salary, (ii) any earned but unpaid prior year annual bonus and a pro-rata annual bonus for the year of termination based on actual performance, (iii) accelerated vesting of all unvested equity awards granted on or prior to December 1, 2020 (with performance-based awards earned at the target level of performance) and (iv) payment of COBRA premiums for up to 12 months, or, if sooner, until eligible for similar coverage through another employer. If the NEO is terminated without cause or resigns for good reason within 30 days prior to, or 12 months following, a change in control, then the NEO severance multiplier will be increased from one to 1.5 and will apply to both the executive’s annual base salary and target annual bonus, all outstanding equity awards will fully accelerate regardless of grant date, and the maximum COBRA premium payment period will be extended from 12 to 18 months. Severance payments remain subject to the Release Condition and compliance with restricted covenants.

“Good Reason” under each of the NEO employment agreements generally means the occurrence of any of the following events, without the executive’s consent, provided, in each case, that such event is not cured within 30 days after the Company receives notice from the executive specifying in reasonable detail the event constituting Good Reason: (i) failure to pay the annual base salary or annual bonus when due, (ii) a reduction in the annual base salary or annual bonus, (iii) any diminution in the executive’s title or any substantial and sustained diminution in the executive’s duties or (iv) a required relocation of the executive’s primary work location by more than 25 miles.

“Cause” under each of the NEO employment agreements generally means: (i) indictment for, conviction of, or a plea of nolo contendere to, (x) a felony (other than traffic-related) under the laws of the United States or any state thereof or any similar criminal act in a jurisdiction outside the United States or (y) a crime involving moral turpitude that could be injurious to the Company or its reputation, (ii) willful malfeasance or willful misconduct which is materially and demonstrably injurious to the Company, (iii) any act of fraud in the performance of executive’s duties or (iv) a material breach of any agreement with the Company or any of the Company’s material policies.

“Change in Control” under each of the NEO employment agreements generally means the occurrence of one or more of the following events: (i) any “person” (as such term is used in Sections 3(a)(9) and 13(d) of the Exchange Act) or “group” (as such term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act), other than the Company or its subsidiaries or any benefit plan of the Company or its subsidiaries is or becomes a “beneficial owner” (as such term is used in Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act) of more than 50% of the voting stock of the Company; (ii) the Company transfers all or substantially all of its assets (unless the

24

##### Table of Contents

stockholders of the Company immediately prior to such transaction beneficially own, directly or indirectly, in substantially the same proportion as they owned the voting stock of the Company, all of the voting stock or other ownership interests of the entity or entities, if any, that succeed to the business of the Company or the Company’s ultimate parent company if the Company is a subsidiary of another corporation); or (iii) any merger, reorganization, consolidation or similar transaction unless, immediately after consummation of such transaction, the stockholders of the Company immediately prior to the transaction hold, directly or indirectly, more than 50% of the voting stock of the Company or the Company’s ultimate parent company if the Company is a subsidiary of another corporation.

Each employment agreement provides that, to the extent that any payments would be subject to the excise tax imposed under Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”), each executive will be entitled to receive either: (a) the full amount of payments and benefits in connection with their employment with the Company or (b) a portion of the payments and benefits having a value equal to $1 less than three times the NEO’s “base amount” (as defined in Section 280G(b)(3)(A) of the Code), whichever results in the receipt of the greater amount on an after-tax basis.

Other Benefits
We offer our eligible full-time employees, including our NEOs, the opportunity to participate in our
tax-qualified
401(k) plan. Employees can contribute 1% to 99% of their eligible earnings up to the Internal Revenue Service’s annual limits on a
before-tax
basis. We provide a 100% match of the first 3% and 50% match of the following 2% of eligible compensation. The matches we provided to our NEOs in 2024 are reflected in the “All Other Compensation” column of the 2024 Summary Compensation Table above. The matching funds that we provide are 100% vested. We maintain an employee stock purchase plan in order to enable eligible employees to purchase shares of our common stock at a discount. We do not maintain any defined benefit pension plans or any nonqualified deferred compensation plans.
Incentive Compensation Clawback Policy
We have adopted a Rule
10D-1
Clawback Policy, which is intended to comply with the requirements of Nasdaq Listing Standard 5608 implementing Rule
10D-1
under the Exchange Act. In the event the Company is required to prepare an accounting restatement of the Company’s financial statements due to material
non-compliance
with any financial reporting requirement under the federal securities laws, the Company will recover, on a reasonably prompt basis, the excess incentive-based compensation received by any covered executive during the prior three fiscal years that exceeds the amount that the executive otherwise would have received had the incentive-based compensation been determined based on the restated financial statements.
Insider Trading Policies and Prohibitions on Hedging
We have adopted insider trading policies and procedures governing the purchase, sale and other transactions in Company securities by the Company’s directors, officers, employees and consultants, as well as the Company itself, that we believe are reasonably designed to promote compliance with insider trading laws, rules and regulations and Nasdaq listing standards.
Our Insider Trading Policy includes provisions that prohibit our employees, officers, directors and consultants from engaging in, with respect to Company securities: (a) short-term trading; (b) short sales; (c) transactions involving publicly traded options or other derivatives, such as trading in puts or calls with respect to Company securities; and (d) hedging transactions.
Practices on Timing of Equity Awards
We do not have any program, plan or obligation that requires us to grant equity awards on specified dates. We also do not have any program, plan or practice to time award dates of stock option grants to our executive officers in coordination with the release of material nonpublic information and typically aim to make equity grants during an open trading window. Equity awards may occasionally be granted following a significant change in job responsibilities or to meet special retention or performance objectives. During 2024, we did not time the disclosure of material nonpublic information for the purpose of affecting the value of executive compensation.

Delinquent Section 16(a) Reports

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our directors, officers and persons who beneficially own more than 10% of a registered class of our equity securities to file with the SEC initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership of our common stock and other equity securities. To our knowledge, based solely on our review of Forms 3, 4 and 5 filed with the SEC, or written representations that no Form 5 was required, during the year ended December 31, 2024, we believe that our directors, officers and persons who beneficially own more than 10% of a registered class of our equity securities timely filed all reports required under Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act, except that, due to administrative error, one Form 4 reporting four transactions related to the grants of restricted stock units and stock options and a sale of common stock was filed late with respect to Mr. Neill; one Form 4 reporting three transactions related to the grants of restricted stock units and stock options

Related Party Transactions

Second Amended and Restated Investors’ Rights Agreement

We are party to a second amended and restated investors’ rights agreement effective as of June 12, 2020 (the “IRA”) with our stockholders who previously held our redeemable convertible preferred stock and certain other stockholders. The IRA provides these holders with certain registration rights, including the right to demand that we file a registration statement or request that their shares be covered by a registration statement that we are otherwise filing. These registration rights will terminate no later than five years after the completion of our IPO or, with respect to any particular holder, at such time that such holder can sell its shares, under Rule 144 under the Securities Act or otherwise, during any 90-day period without registration. The IRA was entered into prior to our adoption of the formal, written policy described below, but was approved by our Board.

2023 Private Placement

On December 21, 2023, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”) with certain entities affiliated with Redmile (the “Purchasers”), relating to the purchase of pre-funded warrants to purchase 3,100,823 shares of common stock at a purchase price of $6.4499 per pre-funded warrant, for aggregate gross proceeds of $19,999,998.30, before deducting offering expenses (the “Private Placement”). Mr. Lee, a director of the Company, serves as Managing Director of Redmile. In addition, Redmile is a holder of more than 5% of the Company’s common stock.

In connection with the foregoing, on December 21, 2023, the Company also entered into a Registration Rights Agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) with the Purchasers, pursuant to which the Company granted the Purchasers certain registration rights with respect to the shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of the pre-funded warrants.

Related Person Transaction Policy

We have adopted a written related person transaction policy that sets forth our procedures for the identification, review, consideration and approval or ratification of related person transactions. For purposes of our policy, a related person transaction is a transaction, arrangement or relationship, or any series of similar transactions, arrangements or relationships, in which (i) the amount involved exceeds or is expected to exceed $120,000, (ii) the Company or any of our subsidiaries is a participant and (iii) any related person (as defined above) has or will have a direct or indirect interest. Transactions involving compensation for services provided to

31

##### Table of Contents

us as an employee or director, among other limited exceptions, are deemed to have standing pre-approval by the Audit Committee but may be specifically reviewed if appropriate in light of the facts and circumstances.

Under the policy, if a transaction has been identified as a related person transaction, our Audit Committee must review the material facts and either approve or disapprove of the entry into the transaction. If advance approval of the transaction is not feasible, then the transaction will be considered and, if the Audit Committee determines it to be appropriate, ratified at the next regularly scheduled meeting. In addition, under our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, our employees and directors have an affirmative responsibility to avoid activities that create or give the appearance of a conflict of interest, and directors and executive officers must consult and seek prior approval of potential conflicts of interest from the Audit Committee. In considering related party transactions, our Audit Committee will take into account the relevant available facts and circumstances including, but not limited to:

| • |  | whether the transaction is on terms no less favorable than terms generally available to an unaffiliated third party under the same or similar circumstances; and

| • |  | the extent of the related person’s interest in the transaction.

OTHER MATTERS

Stockholder Proposals and Director Nominations for Next Year’s Annual Meeting

Pursuant to Rule 14a-8 of the Exchange Act, stockholders who wish to submit proposals for inclusion in the proxy statement for the 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders must send such proposals to our Corporate Secretary at the address set forth on the first page of this Proxy Statement. Such proposals must be received by us as of the close of business (6:00 p.m. Eastern Time) on January 21, 2026 and must comply with Rule 14a-8 of the Exchange Act. The submission of a stockholder proposal does not guarantee that it will be included in the proxy statement.

As set forth in our bylaws, if a stockholder intends to make a nomination for director election or present a proposal for other business (other than pursuant to Rule 14a-8 of the Exchange Act) at the 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, the stockholder’s notice must be received by our Corporate Secretary at the address set forth on the first page of this Proxy Statement no earlier than the 120th day and no later than the 90th day before the anniversary of the last annual meeting; provided, however, that if the date of the annual meeting is more than 30 days before or more than 60 days after such anniversary date, the stockholder’s notice must be delivered not earlier than the close of business on the 120th day prior to such annual meeting and not later than the close of business on the later of the 90th day prior to such annual meeting or the 10th day following the date on which the first public announcement of the date of such annual meeting is made by the Company. Therefore, unless the 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders is more than 30 days before or more than 60 days after the anniversary of the Annual Meeting, notice of proposed nominations or proposals (other than pursuant to Rule 14a-8 of the Exchange Act) must be received by our Corporate Secretary no earlier than March 12, 2026 and no later than the close of business (6:00 p.m. Eastern Time) on April 11, 2026. Any such director nomination or stockholder proposal must be a proper matter for stockholder action and must comply with the terms and conditions set forth in our bylaws. If a stockholder fails to meet these deadlines and fails to satisfy the requirements of Rule 14a-4 of the Exchange Act, we may exercise discretionary voting authority under proxies we solicit to vote on any such proposal as we determine appropriate. In addition to satisfying the deadlines in the advance notice provisions of our bylaws, a stockholder who intends to solicit proxies in support of nominees submitted under these advance notice provisions for the 2026 Annual Meeting must provide the notice required under Rule 14a-19 of the Exchange Act to our Corporate Secretary in writing not later than the close of business (6:00 p.m. Eastern Time) on May 11, 2026. We reserve the right to reject, rule out of order or take other appropriate action with respect to any nomination or proposal that does not comply with these and other applicable requirements.

Delivery of Documents to Stockholders Sharing an Address

A number of brokerage firms have adopted a procedure approved by the SEC called “householding.” Under this procedure, certain stockholders who have the same address and do not participate in electronic delivery of proxy materials will receive only one copy of the proxy materials, including this Proxy Statement, the Notice and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, until such time as one or more of these stockholders notifies us that they wish to receive individual copies. This procedure helps to reduce duplicate mailings and save printing costs and postage fees, as well as natural resources. If you received a “householding” mailing this year and would like to have additional copies of the proxy materials mailed to you, please send a written request to our Corporate Secretary at the address set forth on the first page of this Proxy Statement, or call (512) 900-4690, and we will promptly deliver the proxy materials to you. Please contact your broker if you received multiple copies of the proxy materials and would prefer to receive a single copy in the future, or if you would like to opt out of “householding” for future mailings.

Availability of Additional Information

We will provide, free of charge, a copy of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, including exhibits, on the written or oral request of any stockholder of the Company. Please send a written request to our Corporate Secretary at the address set forth on the first page of this Proxy Statement or call the number above.
