Under the terms of the Agreement, Sentient Brands will acquire AIG in exchange for shares of common stock of the Company in accordance with an earnout schedule, with the transaction expected to close on or before November 1, 2024.

Sergey Knazev, interim CEO of AIG, further noted, “We are thrilled to join forces with Sentient Brands, leveraging AIG Group’s cutting-edge product lines, advanced technology, and robust manufacturing and distribution expertise. This prospective partnership could provide a turnkey solution for AIG Group’s proven food and beverage brands and potentially offer significant access to the U.S. and global markets.
