This transaction is in addition to the previously announced pending sale of Altruis Benefit Consulting
LAKEWOOD, NJ, Sept. 14, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Reliance Global Group, Inc. (Nasdaq: EZRA) (“Reliance,” “EZRA” or the “Company”), an InsurTech company leveraging artificial intelligence, cloud computing and advanced technologies to transform the insurance agency/brokerage industry, today announced that it has completed the sale of its Southwestern Montana Insurance Center subsidiary, a Montana-based full-service insurance agency, for $2.625 million in cash at closing, plus an uncapped earnout, if any, based on the agency’s EBITDA performance for the twelve months ending August 31, 2027. No shares were issued in connection with the transaction. The Southwestern Montana Insurance Center sale is in addition to the previously announced expected sale of the Michigan-based Altruis Benefit Consulting agency.
The completed transaction represents the continued execution of the portfolio monetization strategy of non-core agencies that Reliance launched in 2025. The Company is selectively monetizing mature insurance agency assets to strengthen its balance sheet and redeploy capital into its proprietary AI platform, RELI Exchange, other high-growth InsurTech initiatives, and accelerate the repayment of the company’s term debt.
Key Terms and Expected Impact
Cash at closing plus uncapped earnout; zero dilution. The Company received $2.625 million in cash at closing, based on a multiple of 8.75 times pro forma EBITDA of $300,000. In addition, the transaction provides for an uncapped earnout, if any, equal to 8.75 times the amount by which the agency’s EBITDA exceeds $300,000 for the twelve months ending August 31, 2027, payable, if earned, following the first anniversary of the closing. No shares were issued in connection with the transaction.
Transaction completed. The sale of Southwestern Montana Insurance Center closed on September 11, 2026, effective as of September 1, 2026, marking the successful completion of another transaction under the Company’s portfolio monetization strategy.
Continued execution of the strategy. The completed transaction represents further execution of a non-core agency divestiture under the Company’s portfolio monetization strategy and demonstrates the Company’s continued discipline in unlocking the value of Reliance’s non-core assets while increasing investment in higher-growth technology initiatives.
Enhanced financial flexibility. The completed transaction provides the Company with additional capital and financial flexibility to support operations, growth and strategic investment, including continued investment in its proprietary AI platform, RELI Exchange and other technology initiatives.
Strategic Rationale
In 2025, Reliance launched a portfolio monetization strategy to unlock the value of non-core insurance agency assets while accelerating its evolution into a technology-driven InsurTech company. By selectively monetizing established insurance operations, the Company expects to strengthen its balance sheet, improve financial flexibility and redeploy capital into its proprietary AI platform, RELI Exchange and other strategic growth initiatives that management believes offer greater long-term growth opportunities.
The completed Southwestern Montana transaction represents another milestone in executing the strategy. The transaction is expected to strengthen the Company’s financial position and increase the capital available to accelerate development of the Company’s proprietary AI platform, expand the RELI Exchange network and pursue additional strategic growth opportunities.
“The completed sale of Southwestern Montana Insurance Center reflects the continued execution of our portfolio monetization strategy, a disciplined capital allocation approach designed to unlock the value of our mature insurance agency portfolio and redeploy that capital into higher-growth opportunities,” said Ezra Beyman, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Reliance Global Group. “This transaction was driven by strategy and reflects our commitment to building a stronger, more focused technology-driven company while maximizing long-term shareholder value.”
“This closing builds on the momentum of our recent tech developments and represents another step in repositioning Reliance for its next phase of growth,” Mr. Beyman continued. “We believe this transaction provides us with greater financial flexibility and increased capacity to invest in our AI platform, RELI Exchange and other strategic growth initiatives. We believe this disciplined approach positions Reliance to create meaningful long-term value for our shareholders.”

LAKEWOOD, NJ, Sept. 03, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Reliance Global Group, Inc. (Nasdaq: EZRA) (the “Company”) today announced that its Board of Directors has unanimously adopted a one-year stockholder rights plan. Stockholders do not need to take any action.
Why the Board Adopted the Plan
The Board believes the value of the Company’s assets is well in excess of its current market capitalization, and adopted the rights plan to protect that value for all stockholders. The plan is designed to do three things:
Protect stockholders from coercive or inadequate takeover attempts. It prevents any person or group from gaining control of the Company through open-market accumulation or a partial or below-market offer.
Give the Board time to evaluate any unsolicited offer. If an offer is made, The rights plan ensures that the Board has sufficient time and opportunity to evaluate any unsolicited offer.
Preserve the Board’s ability to explore alternatives. The rights plan lets the Board develop and pursue other options that may deliver greater value to stockholders.
What the Plan Does Not Do
The plan does not prevent a sale of the Company. It does not interfere with any merger, tender offer or other transaction that the Board approves. The Board may redeem all of the rights at any time before any person becomes an acquiring person at a price of $0.001 per right.
Key Terms
The plan expires in one year, on September 3, 2027, unless the Board redeems or terminates it earlier.
The rights become exercisable if a person or group acquires 15% or more of the Company’s common stock without Board approval. Passive institutional investors may hold up to 20%.
If triggered, all stockholders other than the acquirer may purchase additional shares at a significant discount, substantially diluting the acquirer.
Stockholders will receive one right for each share of common stock held as of the close of business on September 18, 2026. The rights trade with the common stock and no separate certificates will be issued unless the plan is triggered.
Each right entitles the holder to purchase one one-thousandth of a share of Series A Preferred Stock at a purchase price of $14.00 per one one-thousandth of a Preferred Share, subject to adjustment.
The plan contains no “dead-hand” provision and includes a “qualifying offer” provision allowing stockholders to call a special meeting to vote on redeeming the rights in response to a fully financed, all-cash or all-stock offer for all shares that meets specified conditions.
The Board may, at any time after a person becomes an acquiring person, exchange each outstanding right (other than rights held by the acquiring person, which will have become void) for one share of common stock, without requiring any payment by the stockholder.
The plan is similar to those adopted by other public companies. Full details are contained in a Current Report on Form 8-K and a Registration Statement on Form 8-A12B being filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

Transaction Expected to Generate Approximately $7.6 Million of Aggregate Incremental Cash After Retiring 100% of the Company’s Term Debt
All-Cash, Non-Dilutive Transaction Would Support Continued Investment in the Company’s Proprietary AI Platform and RELI Exchange InsurTech Operations
LAKEWOOD, NJ, Aug. 03, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Reliance Global Group, Inc. (Nasdaq: EZRA) (“Reliance,” “EZRA” or the “Company”), an InsurTech company leveraging artificial intelligence, cloud computing and advanced technologies to transform the insurance agency/brokerage industry, today announced that it has entered into a non-binding letter of intent (the “LOI”) to sell the assets of its Altruis Benefit Consulting (“Altruis”) subsidiary, a Michigan-based health insurance agency and benefits consulting business, for $11 million in cash. The transaction would transform the Company’s balance sheet, retiring all of its term debt while adding a substantial amount of cash, without issuing a single share of stock. The LOI is non-binding, and there can be no assurance that definitive agreements will be executed or that the proposed transaction will be completed on the terms described, on the contemplated timeline, or at all.
Key Terms and Expected Impact
$11 million in cash for a single subsidiary. Reliance would retain its proprietary AI platform, RELI Exchange and its other insurance operations. Approximately $9.35 million would be paid at closing, with $1.65 million held in an interest-bearing escrow account, the remaining balance of which, plus accrued interest, would be released to the Company 18 months after closing.
Approximately $7.6 million of incremental cash. After fully repaying its Oak Street Funding term loan – the Company’s only term debt of approximately $4.4 million. The transaction is expected to generate approximately $7.6 million of incremental cash in the aggregate: approximately $5 million of net proceeds at closing, before transaction expenses and any taxes; approximately $1.0 million of cash released from restriction as loan collateral; and $1.65 million upon release of the indemnification escrow 18 months after closing.
Zero dilution. The entire purchase price is payable in cash – not buyer stock, not a seller note, not an earnout.
Interest expense eliminated. Repaying the term loan would eliminate the entire principal and interest expense – approximately $1 million annually – making that cash available for operations and growth.
Targeted closing. The parties are targeting a closing within the next 60 days, subject to customary closing conditions.
Strategic Rationale
The proposed sale would mark a significant step in the portfolio strategy Reliance launched in 2025: monetizing mature insurance distribution assets and redeploying that capital into the Company’s future growth opportunities. Altruis is a profitable, well-run business that has grown under Reliance’s ownership, and the proposed price reflects the value the Company built there. With the proceeds, Reliance would fund the continued build-out of its AI platform, launched in July 2026, and its RELI Exchange InsurTech network, while retaining its other insurance operations and their recurring commission revenue.
“We believe that this proposed transaction speaks for itself: an $11 million all-cash price for one of our subsidiaries underscores the value of the business we have built at Reliance,” said Ezra Beyman, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Reliance Global Group. “If completed, this sale would allow us to convert a portion of that value into cash and put it to work in the areas we believe offer the greatest growth potential – our AI platform and our RELI Exchange network.”
“If completed as contemplated, Reliance would emerge with no term debt, a substantially stronger cash position, and not one new share issued,” Mr. Beyman continued. “Very few companies of our size get the opportunity to reset their balance sheet this decisively without dilution. We intend to move quickly toward definitive agreements and a targeted closing, and we look forward to updating shareholders on our progress.”

Proprietary AI Platform Enhances Insurance Operations and Positions Company for Long-Term Growth
Company to Host Conference Call Today at 4:30 PM Eastern Time
LAKEWOOD, N.J., July 30, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Reliance Global Group, Inc. (Nasdaq: EZRA) (“we,” “us,” “our,” the “Company” or “Reliance”) today reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2026, while highlighting continued progress in the development and deployment of its proprietary artificial intelligence platform designed to enhance operational efficiency, automate complex workflows, and create new long-term growth opportunities.
Key Highlights
Launched proprietary AI agent for secure browser automation, marking a significant milestone in the Company’s AI strategy.
Began deploying AI capabilities across Reliance’s insurance operations to improve workflow automation, productivity and customer service.
Continued expanding proprietary AI technologies designed to enhance both internal operations and future commercial opportunities.
Continued delivering organic growth within the Company’s retained insurance operations following the divestiture of non-core businesses.
Reduced second quarter operating expenses by approximately 28% year-over-year through continued operational efficiencies and disciplined cost management.
Improved second quarter net loss by approximately 26% compared with the prior-year period.
Ezra Beyman, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Reliance Global Group, commented, “The second quarter marked an important milestone in our evolution as we continue transforming Reliance through the development of proprietary AI technologies. During the quarter, we accelerated the development of our AI platform and began deploying our secure browser automation technology across our insurance operations to improve productivity, streamline workflows and enhance customer service.”
“We believe artificial intelligence represents a transformational opportunity for our Company. By combining our deep insurance industry expertise with advanced AI capabilities, we are building technology that has the potential to improve operating performance while creating valuable intellectual property. As we continue to develop, deploy and refine innovative AI solutions, we believe this strategy creates meaningful opportunities to strengthen our existing insurance operations while establishing a scalable technology platform capable of driving long-term growth and creating value for our shareholders.”
Strategic Update
In July, Reliance announced the successful launch of its proprietary AI agent for secure browser automation. The AI solution is designed to securely automate complex web-based workflows while maintaining enterprise-grade security and compliance standards. The platform represents a significant milestone in the Company’s ongoing strategy to leverage proprietary artificial intelligence to enhance operational performance, improve scalability and create new long-term growth opportunities.
The Company’s AI platform is being deployed across Reliance’s insurance operations, where it is expected to improve productivity, reduce manual processes and enhance customer service. By integrating the technology into its own operations, the Company expects to optimize internal workflows, reduce administrative burdens and further strengthen the efficiency of its insurance platform while continuing to refine the technology through real-world applications. Management believes the technology also has significant long-term commercialization potential beyond its internal applications.
Building on these capabilities, Reliance intends to expand the platform’s functionality across additional business processes while continuing to invest in the development of proprietary AI technologies that complement its insurance operations. The Company believes its secure browser automation technology has broad applicability for enterprise customers operating in regulated industries that require secure, reliable and compliant workflow automation.
As Reliance continues to enhance its proprietary AI platform, management believes the technology has the potential to strengthen the Company’s insurance operations, improve operating efficiency and create new long-term commercialization opportunities. By combining its deep insurance industry expertise with innovative AI capabilities, the Company believes it is well positioned to build a scalable technology platform that complements its core business, diversifies future revenue opportunities and creates long-term shareholder value. The Company remains focused on executing its core business strategy by growing its InsurTech and insurance operations while continuing to expand its proprietary AI platform.
2026 Second Quarter Financial Highlights
Commission income was approximately $2.1 million, compared with approximately $3.1 million for the second quarter of 2025. The decrease primarily reflects the Company’s previously announced divestitures of certain non-core operations, partially offset by continued organic growth within its retained insurance businesses.
Commission expense was approximately $0.8 million, compared with approximately $1.0 million for the second quarter of 2025. The decrease primarily reflects lower commission expense associated with the divested operations.
Salaries and wages were approximately $1.5 million, compared with approximately $2.6 million for the second quarter of 2025. The decrease primarily reflects lower personnel costs following the divestitures together with reduced non-cash share-based compensation expense.
General and administrative expenses were approximately $1.2 million, compared with approximately $1.5 million for the second quarter of 2025. The reduction was primarily attributable to cost efficiencies and reduced operating expenses resulting from the Company’s OneFirm operating model. The comparison was also affected by Scale51 initiatives in 2026 and acquisition activities in 2025.
Net loss attributable to Reliance Global Group improved to approximately $2.0 million, compared with approximately $2.7 million for the second quarter of 2025. The improvement was primarily driven by continued operating efficiencies, lower non-cash share-based compensation expense and reduced interest expense.
Adjusted EBITDA (“AEBITDA”) a non-GAAP financial measure was a loss of approximately $1.1 million, compared with a loss of approximately $0.4 million for the second quarter of 2025. The year-over-year change primarily reflects lower non-GAAP adjustments in the second quarter of 2026 due to significantly lower non-cash share-based compensation expense, together with lower interest expense and depreciation and amortization. These factors were partially offset by the improvement in GAAP net loss.
Balance Sheet: As of June 30, 2026, the Company reported cash of approximately $0.8 million, combined cash and restricted cash of approximately $1.8 million, working capital of approximately $1.2 million, and stockholders’ equity of approximately $6.6 million.

INFORMATION REGARDING A NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURE
The Company believes certain financial measures which meet the definition of non-GAAP financial measures, as defined in Regulation G of the SEC rules, provide important supplemental information. Adjusted EBITDA (“AEBITDA”), our key financial performance metric, is a non-GAAP financial measure that is not in accordance with, or an alternative to, measures prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”). “AEBITDA” is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) with additional adjustments as further outlined below. The Company considers AEBITDA an important financial metric because it provides a meaningful financial measure of the quality of the Company’s operational, cash impacted and recurring earnings and operating performance across reporting periods. Other companies may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do, which might limit its usefulness as a comparative measure to other companies in the industry. AEBITDA is used by management in addition to and in conjunction (and not as a substitute) with the results presented in accordance with GAAP. Management uses AEBITDA to evaluate the Company’s operational performance, including earnings across reporting periods and the merits for implementing cost-cutting measures. We have presented AEBITDA solely as supplemental disclosure because we believe it allows for a more complete analysis of results of operations and assists investors and analysts in comparing our operating performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance. Consistent with Regulation G, a description of such information is provided below herein and tabular reconciliations of this supplemental non-GAAP financial information to our most comparable GAAP information are contained in this press release.
We exclude the following items when calculating AEBITDA, and the following items define our non-GAAP financial measure AEBITDA:
•
Interest and related party interest expense: Unrelated to core Company operations and excluded to provide more meaningful supplemental information regarding the Company’s core operational performance.
•
Depreciation and amortization: Non-cash charge, excluded to provide more meaningful supplemental information regarding the Company’s core operational performance.
•
Goodwill and/or asset impairments: Non-cash charge, excluded to provide more meaningful supplemental information regarding the Company’s core operational performance.
•
Equity-based compensation: Non-cash compensation provided to employees and service providers , (including period amortization cost of service provider prepaid expenses that were prepaid with stock) excluded to provide more meaningful supplemental information regarding the Company’s core cash impacted operational performance.
•
Other income (expense), net: Includes certain non-routine income or expenses and other individually de minimis items and is thus excluded as unrelated to core operations of the company.
•
Gain (Loss) from Equity Method Investment: Includes certain gains and losses on equity method investments that are non-cash, and thus excluded to provide more meaningful supplemental information regarding the Company’s core operational performance.
•
Unrealized gains (losses) on digital assets, net: This account includes unrealized gains and losses from digital assets and is thus excluded as unrelated to core operations of the company.
•
Transactional costs: This includes expenses related to mergers, acquisitions, financings and refinancings, and amendments or modification to indebtedness. These costs are unrelated to primary Company operations and are excluded to provide more meaningful supplemental information regarding the Company’s core operational performance.
•
Non-standard costs: This account includes non-recurring non-operational items, related to costs incurred for a legal suit the Company has filed against one of the third parties involved in previously discontinued operations and was excluded to provide more meaningful supplemental information regarding the Company’s core operational performance.
The following table provides a reconciliation from net income (loss) to consolidated AEBITDA for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2026, and June 30, 2025

Reliance’s proprietary AI agent brings secure environments, policy-enforced action controls, human-in-the-loop review, and audit-grade records to regulated industries, beginning with insurance back offices
LAKEWOOD, NJ, July 14, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Reliance Global Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: EZRA) today announced the launch of a proprietary AI agent built in-house for secure browser automation in regulated back-office operations. The launch represents a key milestone in Reliance’s previously announced AI strategy, establishing the technology foundation for the Company’s vision to build an AI-powered insurance platform. The agent is built to automate thousands of repetitive browser-based tasks performed by insurance teams every day, including service requests, endorsements, quote pulls, status checks, and document retrieval, while operating within a security framework designed for regulatory compliance.
General-purpose web agents are typically designed for maximum autonomy, allowing them to execute actions independently. In regulated environments, that approach creates risk, as an automation error can result in an incorrect policy action, inaccurate pricing, or exposure of sensitive information.
Reliance’s AI agent was built around control and accountability. It manages login, access, and portal credentials for the agency, while every browser interaction is governed by defined policies and recorded through an audit trail. The agent’s actions are limited by predefined controls, with human review required for consequential decisions.
The platform is being deployed across Reliance’s growing network of insurance agencies, where the Company expects it to improve operating efficiency, reduce manual processing, and accelerate the integration of acquired agencies. As additional carrier portals, workflows, and AI capabilities are added, Reliance expects the platform to become an increasingly valuable component of its technology ecosystem, strengthening both its agency operations and the foundation for future AI-native insurance products. The Company also intends to commercialize the platform through developer, Team, and Enterprise offerings, including self-hosted and virtual private cloud (VPC) deployments.
“Every agency we bring onto the platform comes with thousands of hours of repetitive portal work. This agent allows us to absorb that work without scaling headcount while maintaining the controls required in insurance operations,” said Judah Korman, Chief Operating Officer of Reliance Global Group.
“Most AI agents built for the browser are designed to maximize what they can do independently. We built ours to maximize what it can do while keeping organizations in control,” said Zack Wilder, Chief Technology Officer of Reliance Global Group, who joined the company earlier this year after leading engineering initiatives at Coinbase and Capital One. “The credentials, policy controls, and audit logs are foundational to the system and are what allow us to deploy AI automation in regulated environments.”
The AI agent includes several enterprise-grade capabilities:
Policy-enforced action controls. Every browser action passes through a centralized enforcement layer built into the software. Irreversible actions such as submit, issue, or bind are blocked outright and reserved for human employees.
Save-and-park human review. The AI agent never finalizes a transaction. Completed work is saved within the portal and held for employee approval, with every run independently scored against its own screenshots and event logs – not the agent’s self-report – and flagged for scrutiny if anything falls short.
Secure credential handling. Portal credentials remain under the agency’s control, retrieved securely by the platform at runtime and never exposed to the AI model or recorded in logs, records, or reports.
Detailed run records. Every workflow produces a step-by-step event log with screenshots, designed to support reporting, review, and compliance oversight.
Risk controls and verification safeguards. Every task type carries a risk classification assigned in code – never by the AI – that determines what actions are permitted, alongside verification checks that catch potential errors, including unintended pricing changes.
The proprietary AI agent launches with an initial focus on Reliance’s insurance back-office operations, its agency network, and the carriers it works with, where teams operate under regulatory frameworks including GLBA, NAIC Model 668, and NY DFS 500. As additional workflows and portals are added, Reliance expects the technology to expand beyond insurance back-office automation and support broader regulated enterprise use cases.
Reliance is onboarding design partners and plans to offer the technology through multiple tiers, including a free developer tier, Team workspace, and Enterprise plan with self-hosted and virtual private cloud (VPC) deployment options. Each tier will include the core security controls, human review capabilities, and audit-ready reporting framework.
The launch represents the first major technology milestone in Reliance’s broader AI strategy to build an AI-powered insurance platform. As the Company continues developing additional capabilities, the technology is expected to support both agency operations and future AI-native insurance products.

Appointments of Zack Wilder as CTO, Judah Korman as COO, and Mordy Beyman as Executive Vice President to advance dual strategy: In-house development of planned AI-native insurance products and AI-powered agency acquisition roll-up
LAKEWOOD, NJ, June 22, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Reliance Global Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: EZRA), an Insurtech company that acquires independent insurance agencies, consolidates them into a unified network, and supports them with a technology platform, today announced the appointments of Judah Korman as Chief Operating Officer, Zack Wilder as Chief Technology Officer, and Mordy Beyman as Executive Vice President, alongside two additional engineers who join Wilder in forming the company’s newly established AI product development team. As previously announced, Moshe Fishman, Senior Vice President of Insurtech, completes the team, bringing fluency in emerging Insurtech infrastructure that is transforming traditional insurance operations.
The appointments mark a next step in Reliance’s strategic direction: the development of AI-native insurance products intended for mass-market distribution and an AI-powered insurance agency acquisition roll-up. The appointments build on several years of execution, during which Reliance has acquired a network of independent agencies and developed the technology platform that it intends to serve as the foundation for its AI expansion.
“Reliance was founded on the belief that insurance, one of the largest and most entrenched industries in the world, was overdue for a fundamental rethinking,” said Ezra Beyman, Chief Executive Officer of Reliance Global Group. “We started by embedding technology into the agency model, and the results validated that thesis. Now we are going further: running our acquisition roll-up through an AI backbone and investing in insurance products that we believe AI has made possible for the first time. Judah, Zack, Mordy, Moshe, and the engineering team they are building are the right people to lead that chapter.”
Reliance is entering its next phase of growth with a dual mandate, with artificial intelligence as the strategic framework connecting both pillars. The first is an AI-powered insurance agency acquisition roll-up – building upon Reliance’s existing business of acquiring independent agencies and integrating them into a centralized operating platform designed to automate workflows, enhance underwriting, and extract compounding value from each agency’s data and operations. The second is the development of AI-native insurance products built for digital-first distribution at scale. The Company believes AI is not a feature layer added to either strategy; it is the architecture both are designed around.
The Company believes the roll-up model is meaningfully differentiated when powered by AI. Traditional insurance consolidators often face diminishing returns as acquired agencies require heavy operational integration and manual management. Reliance’s approach is designed to use automation and data intelligence to streamline back-office operations, improve coverage routing, and generate performance intelligence across the agency network, with the goal of compressing integration timelines and improving acquisition economics relative to conventional roll-up strategies.
The AI-native product is the company’s second approach: insurance products intended to be conceived entirely around artificial intelligence, not adapted from legacy models. This approach is expected to use AI for risk selection and pricing, to deploy conversational AI to replace traditional quoting and binding workflows, and to build data infrastructure that improves with every policy written. These are not incremental improvements to existing products; they are intended to be new products that the Company believes recent advances in AI have made possible.
The two pillars are designed to reinforce each other. Acquired agencies contribute carrier relationships, books of business, and proprietary data. The platform and in-house products, in turn, are intended to make each acquired agency more efficient and competitive. Reliance believes this positions the Company distinctly from both traditional consolidators and pure-play Insurtech companies operating without established distribution scale.
Leadership Appointments
Judah Korman – Chief Operating Officer
Korman joins as Chief Operating Officer with responsibility for scaling Reliance’s operating model across its growing network of AI-powered agencies and platforms. He brings a decade of experience building and exiting technology companies, with a track record that spans founding and scaling a mobile logistics marketplace to a successful acquisition, building, and growing numerous consumer apps, and serving as a private equity analyst on leveraged buyout transactions. He brings deep expertise in the operational complexity of scaling multi-sided platforms. In this role, Korman will focus on translating Reliance’s AI strategy into operating discipline across agency integration, workflow centralization, performance management, and scalable execution.
Zack Wilder – Chief Technology Officer
Wilder joins as Chief Technology Officer with extensive fintech experience, having led major engineering initiatives at Coinbase and Capital One in support of core financial and authentication infrastructure at two security-intensive platforms in financial services. At Reliance, Wilder’s mandate is to turn the Company’s AI strategy into product architecture, engineering execution, and scalable technology infrastructure – encompassing the AI platform powering the acquisition roll-up and the build-out of AI-native insurance products. His background building regulated, high-stakes financial infrastructure positions him to move with speed and precision in an industry where compliance and security are non-negotiable.
Wilder is joined by two additional engineers who form the founding members of Reliance’s AI product development team. The team’s initial focus is building the core AI infrastructure that will power both the agency roll-up platform and the Company’s first AI-native insurance products.
Mordy Beyman – Executive Vice President
Beyman advances to Executive Vice President of Reliance Global Group, formalizing a role he has held in practice for some time. He has been closely involved in shaping Reliance’s long-term strategic vision, including its positioning in technology and the investments that underpin its current AI initiative. Beyman’s involvement in the architecture of this new chapter – from identifying the AI opportunity to guiding the leadership build-out – makes his formal appointment a natural extension of the work already underway. In his role as Executive Vice President, Beyman will focus on coordinating strategic execution across the leadership team, technology roadmap, and broader AI initiative.
Together, these appointments are designed to give Reliance the ability to execute across product development, agency integration, technology infrastructure, and AI-enabled operating efficiency.
“Insurance distribution has been resistant to the kind of operational transformation that technology has brought to other areas of financial services. What Reliance has built is a genuine foundation for the agency network, the carrier relationships, and now the AI platform to centralize and amplify it all. An AI-powered roll-up is designed to be a meaningfully different proposition from a traditional consolidation play. The economics are designed to compound differently, the integration timelines are designed to compress, and the data advantage widens with every acquisition,” said Korman.
“I spent years at Capital One building infrastructure for an industry most people thought was too complex and too regulated to change quickly. Insurance is in a similar position today, and AI is now mature enough to do more than automate workflows. It can reimagine what an insurance product looks like, how it is priced, and how it reaches a customer. That is what we are building at Reliance, starting with a solid foundation and a head start on the rest of the industry,” said Wilder.
“I have been part of building this vision for some time, and what excites me most is that the timing is right. The AI tools available today are genuinely capable of transforming how insurance is distributed and how products are built. Reliance has the carrier relationships, the agency network that is licensed across the United States, and now the team to execute on that. My focus is making sure this initiative scales with the ambition behind it,” said Beyman.

Company Targets Multi-Billion-Dollar Cybersecurity Upgrade Cycle as Governments, Financial Institutions, AI Infrastructure Operators and Critical Networks Prepare for Emerging Quantum Threats to Legacy Encryption
LAKEWOOD, NJ, June 01, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Reliance Global Group, Inc. (Nasdaq: EZRA) (“we,” “us,” “our,” the “Company” or “Reliance”) today provided an update on ENQUANTUM Ltd. (“ENQUANTUM”), its post-quantum cybersecurity investment, highlighting a significant technical milestone as global urgency around quantum-resilient cybersecurity continues to accelerate.
Nation-state-level quantum computers are expected to eventually compromise many widely deployed encryption methods currently used across global digital infrastructure. ENQUANTUM is developing post-quantum security technologies designed to address this transition by integrating next-generation encryption methods, into high-performance architectures engineered for secure, low-latency network environments.
Recent developments across the quantum sector continue reinforcing the growing strategic importance of post-quantum security infrastructure. Last week, the U.S. Department of Commerce announced the signing of letters of intent to provide approximately $2.013 billion in proposed CHIPS and Science Act incentives to support quantum computing and quantum infrastructure initiatives across multiple companies and domestic quantum foundries. The initiative is designed to accelerate U.S. leadership in quantum computing and strengthen national security and critical infrastructure capabilities, further validating the increasing urgency surrounding quantum preparedness across both public and private sectors. The Company believes the increasing alignment between government policy, enterprise cybersecurity planning and quantum infrastructure investment is helping move post-quantum migration from long-term research planning toward active implementation discussions across critical digital infrastructure markets.
“We believe the market is now beginning to recognize the scale and urgency of the post-quantum transition,” said Ezra Beyman, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Reliance Global Group. “Our investment in ENQUANTUM was initiated well before the recent surge of public attention surrounding quantum technologies because we believed early on that quantum-resilient cybersecurity would become a critical infrastructure requirement. We are not simply chasing market momentum. We believe the increasing global focus on quantum computing and recent government initiatives further validate our strategic decision to build a position in post-quantum cybersecurity infrastructure through ENQUANTUM and our strategy, which is focused on identifying and scaling high-impact technology platforms through disciplined capital allocation and active operational involvement.”
Moshe Fishman, Senior Vice President of Strategic Ventures at Reliance Global Group, added, “The importance of post-quantum cryptography is becoming increasingly clear as governments, financial institutions, AI infrastructure operators and large-scale networks begin evaluating how to protect critical systems against future quantum threats. ENQUANTUM’s focus on infrastructure-grade encryption is being designed to support environments where latency, throughput and scalability are essential, particularly across sensitive financial systems, AI workloads, telecommunications infrastructure and other mission-critical digital environments. We believe the industry is still in the early stages of what could become one of the largest cybersecurity infrastructure upgrade cycles in decades.”

Israel Innovation Authority Approves Project Following Successful Real-World Construction Pilot Under EZRA International Group’s Scale51 Initiative
LAKEWOOD, NJ, May 18, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Reliance Global Group, Inc. (Nasdaq: EZRA) (“we,” “us,” “our,” the “Company” or “Reliance”) today announced that Enquantum Ltd. (“Enquantum”), a developer of advanced networking and post-quantum cybersecurity technologies and a strategic platform investment under EZRA International Group’s Scale51 initiative, successfully completed a real-world private 5G deployment with a leading Israeli construction company. The deployment demonstrated advanced worker safety, real-time operational monitoring, and intelligent site management capabilities in active construction environments. As part of the pilot program, construction workers utilized 5G-connected smart helmets equipped with real-time geolocation and geofencing functionality, enabling live workforce visibility, automated safety zone enforcement, and improved on-site coordination and operational awareness.
Following the successful execution of the project, the initiative received approval from the Israel Innovation Authority (“IIA”), which officially closed the program following successful implementation and validation of the private 5G application deployment, reinforcing the commercial potential of Enquantum’s advanced networking technologies for industrial and infrastructure applications.
The successful deployment was powered by Enquantum’s FPGA-accelerated User Plane Function (“UPF”) technology with advanced CPU offloading capabilities, enabling secure, high-performance private cellular networking with successful over-the-air validation. The architecture is designed to improve network efficiency, reduce latency, and support reliable real-time communications in demanding industrial environments where continuous connectivity, mobility, and operational visibility are critical. Reliance believes these capabilities position Enquantum to support next-generation private wireless applications across industrial, infrastructure, and smart mobility markets.
“We are extremely excited by this successful deployment and the continued progress Enquantum is making in advanced networking and infrastructure technologies,” said Ezra Beyman, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Reliance Global Group. “Demonstrating a real-world private 5G application focused on worker safety and operational intelligence represents an important milestone for the company. We believe the successful pilot and support from the Israel Innovation Authority reinforce the growing commercial potential for Enquantum’s technologies across industrial, infrastructure, and smart connectivity markets.”
Reliance believes demand for secure private 5G infrastructure and intelligent connected-device applications is expected to continue growing across construction, manufacturing, logistics, transportation, defense, and public-sector environments as organizations seek greater automation, operational visibility, and real-time communications capabilities. Enquantum continues advancing its broader portfolio of high-performance networking, encrypted communications, and post-quantum cybersecurity technologies designed for next-generation infrastructure environments.
