ITEM 5.03. AMENDMENTS TO ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION OR BYLAWS; CHANGE IN FISCAL YEAR.

On November 5, 2012, Advant-e Corporation’s Board of Directors authorized the amendments to its Articles of Incorporation for the 1-for-10,000 reverse stock split and the 1,000-for-1 forward stock split.

 

ITEM 8.01. OTHER EVENTS.

On November 5, 2012, Advant-e Corporation issued a press release announcing that the Company’s Board of Directors and a majority of its outstanding shares have authorized a 1-for-10,000 reverse stock split followed by a 1,000-for-1 forward stock split and a $2,000,000 share repurchase program.

The Company’s Board of Directors is also considering payment of a potential special cash dividend pending the results of the stock splits, the share repurchase program and the Company’s cash flow. These corporate actions are being undertaken in preparation to voluntarily suspend the Company’s obligation to file periodic reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The date of the reverse and forward stock splits will be announced at a later date pending regulatory compliance. The Company expects to file a Schedule 14C Information Statement with the SEC further describing the reverse and forward stock splits shortly. The Board of Directors has reserved the right to abandon the proposed reverse and forward stock splits at any time prior to the effective date if it believes them to no longer be in the best interest of the Company or its shareholders.

The text of this release is attached as an exhibit hereto.
