AVANT BRANDS COMPLETES EU GMP AUDIT AT FLOWR FACILITY

Avant Brands Inc. has completed its European Union good manufacturing practice audit at the company's largest cultivation facility, The Flowr Group Okanagan Inc., located in Kelowna, B.C.

Completion of the on-site audit represents an important step in Avant's efforts to obtain EU GMP certification at the Flowr facility. If certification is ultimately granted, it could support increased growth of Avant's international medical cannabis markets, providing the company with greater control over its international supply chain.

Norton Singhavon, founder and chief executive officer of Avant Brands, commented: "Completing the on-site EU GMP audit at Flowr is an important step in the certification process. We recently finalized a nearly $2.0-million capital improvement program at Flowr, focused heavily on LED infrastructure and improvements to the facility. Our team has invested significant time and resources preparing Flowr for the EU GMP process, and our focus is now on completing the remaining work required as part of the certification review. We recognize that completing the audit does not constitute certification, and we remain focused on working through the next stages of the process."

Audit and certification process

Conducted by a qualified German auditing body, the on-site audit evaluated the facility's operations, including cultivation, harvesting, processing and quality management.

Following completion of the on-site audit, the certification process remains in progress. Avant will focus on addressing observations arising from the audit and completing the required review and remediation process. The company expects this stage to require continued work and engagement before a final certification determination is made.

Preparing for the audit required facility upgrades, process validation and alignment with applicable European requirements. The company will continue to dedicate the necessary resources to addressing the audit findings and advancing the certification process.

There can be no assurance that final EU GMP certification will be granted by the applicable regulatory authorities, or that certification will be granted within the timeline currently anticipated. Avant will provide further updates as appropriate as the certification process progresses.
