Ali Rothbaum Sintic, VP of Operations at RELI Exchange commented, “RELI University is a virtual classroom to train and develop new and seasoned agents. Each week we add sales and marketing videos after our live weekly presentation. RELI University is exclusive and complimentary for our RELI Exchange agency partners. Agency partners are given assignments to complete ensuring they stay ahead of the curve with all the important information they need to run a successful agency. RELI University also provides a place for agency partners to receive mentorship. The material in the virtual university is growing on a weekly basis. Agency partners are updated in real-time on any new, important information. If there is a task needed to be completed for licensing or business, they are given assignments that can be completed in a timely and efficient manner.”

Moshe Fishman, Director of InsurTech and Operations at Reliance Global added, “RELI University provides a wide range of tools to maximize the success of our agency partners. Whether it is a seasoned insurance agent, or an agent just starting their career, RELI University has been designed to increase each agency partner’s productivity. When agents have feedback on how to enhance the productivity of other agents, they share that, as well. This is a truly collaborative environment and something we refer to as the RELI Exchange Agency Partner Community. It is very satisfying to watch agency partners assisting each other so that they can all write more business. Reaching over 200 RELI Exchange agency partners in such a short span of time is something that we are very proud of at Reliance Global.”

Reliance Global Group Announces 1-for-15 Reverse Stock Split

LAKEWOOD, N.J., Feb. 22, 2023 — Reliance Global Group, Inc. (Nasdaq: RELI; RELIW) (“Reliance”, “we” or the “Company”), which combines artificial intelligence (AI) and cloud-based technologies with the personalized experience of a traditional insurance agency, today announced that on February 7, 2023, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a 1-for-15 reverse stock split (the “Reverse Stock Split”) of the Company’s common stock (the “Common Stock”) in order to regain compliance with the $1.00 minimum bid price requirement for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market (Rule 5550(a)(2)). The Company was not required to obtain shareholder approval to effectuate the Reverse Stock Split. On February 22, 2023, the Company filed articles of amendment to the Company’s articles of incorporation, as amended, with the Secretary of State of the State of Florida to effect the Reverse Stock Split as of 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on that date. On February 23, 2023, the Common Stock will begin trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market (“Nasdaq”) on a split-adjusted basis at the start of trading on February 23, 2023, under the symbol “RELI” and under a new CUSIP number, 75946W306.

Ezra Beyman, CEO of Reliance Global Group, commented, “Maintaining our Nasdaq listing is of utmost importance, as it offers credibility, visibility and a platform to support our growth objectives. We believe having a higher price will also help make our stock more attractive to institutional investors and brokers, who may previously have been restricted in their ability to invest or recommend our stock due to the share price. In addition, by reducing the number of shares available in the public float, we aim to combat unethical and illegal trades, such as naked short selling.”

“Despite the tough overall market conditions, especially in the small-cap sector, we remain fully committed to maximizing shareholder value and are extremely optimistic about the future of our business. We are highly encouraged by the rapid growth of the number of independent agents joining our business-to-business InsurTech platform, RELI Exchange, from 65 to 176 independent agents, representing a growth rate of 170%, since May 2022. Our commitment to executing on our business plan has not wavered, and we believe the outlook for the business is extremely bright.”

Upon implementation of the Reverse Stock Split, every 15 shares of the Company’s issued and outstanding Common Stock will automatically convert into one share of Common Stock without any change to the par value of $0.086 per share and the amount of Common Stock outstanding will be reduced from approximately 20 million shares to approximately 1.3 million shares. Following the Reverse Stock Split, the ownership percentage of each shareholder will remain unchanged. Proportional adjustments will be made to the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Company’s outstanding stock options and warrants, and other incentive awards, as well as the applicable exercise price.

Information to Stockholders

VStock Transfer, LLC, the Company transfer agent, will send instructions to stockholders of record who hold stock certificates regarding the exchange of certificates for Common Stock. Stockholders who hold their shares of Common Stock in book-entry form or in brokerage accounts or “street name” are not required to take any action to effect the exchange of their shares of Common Stock following the Reverse Stock Split. VStock Transfer, LLC may be reached for questions at (212) 828-8436.

Reliance Global Group Achieves 61% Increase in Revenue for the Third Quarter of 2022

Highly Successful RELI Exchange Platform Helping Drive Revenue Growth

Company to Host Conference Call Today at 12:00 PM

LAKEWOOD, N.J., Nov. 15, 2022 — Reliance Global Group, Inc. (Nasdaq: RELI; RELIW) (“Reliance”, “we” or the “Company”), which combines artificial intelligence (AI) and cloud-based technologies with the personalized experience of a traditional insurance agency, yesterday provided a business update and reported financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2022.

Ezra Beyman, CEO of Reliance Global Group, commented, “We are extremely pleased to report a 61% year-over-year increase in revenue for the third quarter of 2022. Our strong growth has been fueled by our recent acquisitions, including Barra & Associates, which was successfully relaunched as RELI Exchange earlier this year. With the RELI Exchange platform, we believe we have built a best-in-class InsurTech platform and are not aware of any other offering in the insurance industry with its speed or versatility. The platform enables agents to quickly generate side by side quote comparisons across a broad universe of carriers, to ensure they are getting the best policies and value for their clients. RELI Exchange also simplifies an agent’s back-office burden and reduces their costs by streamlining their operations and minimizing paperwork, thus providing an agent more time to focus on clients, selling policies, and growing their business. The platform has scaled even faster than anticipated, as independent agents continue to join the network. I am pleased to report RELI Exchange now has more than 120 agency partners, up from just 65 a few short months ago.”

“We continue to add additional streams of revenue for our agency partners, which we believe will make RELI Exchange an even more compelling value proposition and help further accelerate growth of the platform. As an example, we recently added a new referral partnership with NRS Funding, whereby RELI Exchange agents are now able to offer their clients merchant cash advance services. In addition, there are several other services that are in the pipeline which we believe we will be rolling out to RELI Exchange agency partners in the near future.”

“Overall, we remain committed to achieving our goal of building RELI Exchange into the largest agency partner network in the U.S. and, based on our results to date, we believe we are moving in the right direction. In addition, we believe that our highly scalable business model will drive significant shareholder value as we move forward.”
