American Marconi Wireless News - Food Culture Inc. Establishes Audit Committee and Advances Selection of a PCAOB-Registered Accounting Firm

TORONTO, ON / ACCESS Newswire / September 8, 2026 / Food Culture Inc. (OTCID:FCUL) ("FCUL" or the "Company") today announced that its board of directors has established an audit committee and that the Company has received proposals from three accounting firms registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board ("PCAOB"). The Company also introduced a refreshed corporate mark. The committee and accounting-firm selection process advance the governance and financial-reporting programme the Company outlined on August 27, 2026.

Audit Committee

On September 7, 2026, the board of directors established an audit committee, completing the second of the two governance steps described in the Company's August 27, 2026 announcement. The audit committee comprises Alena Ivanova, Efraim Babayov and Ruben Yakubov, with Ms. Ivanova, an independent director, serving as chair. A majority of the committee is independent; Mr. Yakubov is the Company's President and Chief Financial Officer and is not independent.

The audit committee is responsible for overseeing the Company's financial reporting and disclosure, the selection, engagement and oversight of the Company's independent accounting firm, and the review of the Company's accounting policies and internal financial controls. The Company is not subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and its securities are not listed on a national securities exchange. Accordingly, the exchange listing standards governing audit committees do not apply to the Company by their terms. The board established the committee and adopted its terms of reference as a matter of governance practice.

Selection of a PCAOB-Registered Accounting Firm

On August 27, 2026, the Company stated that it intended to retain an independent public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB during September 2026 to begin the audit process for its financial statements. The Company has since received proposals from three PCAOB-registered accounting firms. The audit committee will review the proposals and recommend a firm to the board.

No firm has been engaged, no engagement letter has been signed and no audit has commenced. The scope, periods covered and timing of any audit will be determined when the Company engages a firm. The Company's financial statements are currently unaudited, and the Company reports under the OTC Markets Alternative Reporting Standard.

Corporate Mark

The Company has adopted a refreshed corporate mark that sets the four letters of its trading symbol (F, C, U and L) in a two-by-two block. The single-weight, square design can be reproduced in colour or black and white across digital and print materials. The mark identifies the corporate issuer, while the Company's products continue to use their individual brand identities, including Stadium^TM premium vodka.

The refreshed mark appears on the Company's website at www.foodcultureinc.com, in its corporate communications and on its OTC Markets profile. The Company's legal name, trading symbol, CUSIP number, share capital and transfer agent have not changed. The mark does not affect shareholders' holdings.
