NEWS RELEASE
CULT Food Science Announces Share Consolidation
Toronto, Ontario - January 12, 2026 / CULT Food Science Corp. ("CULT" or the "Company") (CSE: CULT) (OTC: CULTF) (FRA: LN00), a disruptive food technology investment platform focused on making investments to pioneer the commercialization of lab-grown meat and cellular agriculture to reshape the global food industry, announces that, as approved by shareholders at its last annual general and special meeting, the Company will be consolidating all of its issued and outstanding common shares on the basis of one (1) post-consolidated common share (each a "Post-Consolidated Common Share") for every fifty (50) pre-consolidated common shares (each a "Pre-Consolidated Common Share") held (the "Consolidation"). The Consolidation is intended to make the Company more attractive to potential new investors.
The Company's board of directors has approved the Consolidation and set January 16, 2026 as the record date. Trading of the Post-Consolidated Common Shares on the Canadian Securities Exchange ("CSE") is expected to commence on or about January 16, 2026, subject to final approval by the CSE. The new CUSIP number will be 230266405 and the new ISIN number will be CA2302664057. The Company's name and stock symbol will remain unchanged following the Consolidation.
As of the date hereof, the Company has 122,317,913 Pre-Consolidated Common Shares issued and outstanding. The Consolidation will reduce the number of outstanding shares to approximately 2,446,388 Post-Consolidated Common Shares issued and outstanding.
Shareholders of the Company (other than those holding certificated shares who will be contacted by the Company directly) will automatically receive their Post-Consolidated Common Shares without any further action. Endeavor Trust Corporation will send each registered shareholder a DRS statement(s) representing the Post-Consolidation Common Shares. Shareholders who hold their shares through an intermediary are encouraged to contact their intermediaries if they have any questions.
No fractional shares will be issued under the Consolidation. Fractional shares will be rounded either up or down to the nearest whole number. Each fractional share remaining after conversion that is less than half of a share will be cancelled, and each fractional share that is at least half of a share will be changed to one whole share. The exercise price and number of shares issuable pursuant to the exercise of any outstanding convertible securities, including incentive stock options and warrants, will also be adjusted in accordance with the Consolidation ratio.
