(TSX:AVNT)(OTCQX:AVTBF)(FRA:1BU0) ("Avant" or the "Company"), a leading producer of innovative and award-winning cannabis products, announces that it will consolidate its outstanding common shares on the basis of thirty (30) existing common shares for one (1) new common share of the Company (the "Consolidation"). In accordance with the articles of the Company, the Consolidation has been approved by the board of directors (the "Board") of the Company, and shareholder approval is not required.

No fractional post-Consolidation common shares will be issued as a result of the Consolidation. The holdings of any shareholder who would otherwise be entitled to receive a fractional share as a result of the Consolidation shall be rounded up to the next higher whole number if the fraction is 0.5 or greater, and rounded down to the next lower whole number if the fraction is less than 0.5.

Registered shareholders of the Company holding their shares in certificate form will receive a letter of transmittal from the Company's transfer agent with instructions for exchanging their pre-Consolidation shares for post-Consolidation shares.
