Reliance Global Group Schedules Commercial Launch of 5minuteinsure.com for Q3 2021; Demo Video Now Available Online

LAKEWOOD, N.J., June 08, 2021 — via NewMediaWireReliance Global Group, Inc. (Nasdaq: RELI; RELIW), which combines AI and cloud-based technologies with the personalized experience of a traditional insurance agency, today announced plans for the commercial launch of its 5minuteinsure.com platform in Q3 2021 and reports that its new demo video is available on the Company’s website.

5minuteinsure.com is designed to utilize artificial intelligence (AI) to provide competitive insurance quotes online within five minutes, with minimal data input by the customer. 5minuteinsure.com combines the best of a traditional insurance agency, including the option for direct agent interaction with the ability to bind a policy either online or offline.

Ezra Beyman, CEO of Reliance Global Group, commented, “We continue to advance our new 5minuteinsure.com platform and are making progress towards finalizing the AI and data analytics infrastructure, which we believe will provide an exceptional customer experience. We have highlighted these capabilities in our new teaser video, which is available on our website. As recently announced, we now have licenses in 46 states and have agreements with 11 carriers with more to come. As a result, I am pleased to announce we are on track to formally launch the new platform in the third quarter of this year. This follows our successful Beta launch earlier this year, which helped us gain valuable user insight and preferences to further enhance the offering. Importantly, we are leveraging the infrastructure of our portfolio companies, including our Fortman Insurance Agency subsidiary, which we believe provides us the experience and track record necessary to help ensure a seamless launch of this new offering in the months ahead. It is clear that there is growing consumer demand for online tools that compare live quotes for home and auto insurance between multiple carriers, as well as allow customers to instantly purchase the coverage they desire on a single platform. This offering is in stark contrast to conventional lead generator comparison sites that simply compare non-binding quotes and sell the consumer data as leads to third-party agencies. We could not be more excited about the outlook for our 5minuteinsure.com platform.”

Reliance Global Group Reports 15% Increase in Revenue for the First Quarter of 2021 and Provides Corporate Update

LAKEWOOD, N.J., May 14, 2021 — via NewMediaWireReliance Global Group, Inc. (Nasdaq: RELI; RELIW), which combines AI and cloud-based technologies with the personalized experience of a traditional insurance agency, today provided a business update and reported financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2021.

Ezra Beyman, CEO of Reliance Global Group, commented, “We continue to execute on our organic growth strategy as evidenced by a 15% increase in revenue for the first quarter of 2021 over the same period last year. I am also pleased to report that we continue to increase the cash flow from our insurance operations. We ended the quarter with over $10 million of cash and restricted cash, which provides us a solid balance sheet to execute on our near and long-term growth objectives. At the same time, we are accelerating our M&A strategy by targeting additional growing, cash flow positive agencies we can acquire at attractive multiples, as illustrated by our recently announced acquisition of J.P. Kush and Associates, Inc., a premier healthcare insurance agency with over one hundred independent agents across 10 states. Importantly, this acquisition is consistent with our strategy of targeting companies that we believe will expand our national footprint, add additional carrier relationships, provide opportunities for meaningful operating synergies and are expected to be accretive to earnings. We are currently evaluating additional acquisition opportunities that we believe may be highly synergistic and in line with our core strategy.”

“We are also making progress towards rolling out our new 5minuteinsure.com platform, which we continue to believe will be transformative for our Company. After a successful initial Beta program, 5Minuteinsure.com gathered valuable information on the online insurance consumer’s ideal experience. Through extensive research, we have determined the key factors required to most efficiently convert a prospect into a client, using the online interactive platform. Consumers are demanding online tools to compare live quotes for home and auto insurance between multiple carriers, which at the same time, enable the consumer to instantly purchase the coverage they desire, on a single platform. This is a major differentiating factor from lead generator comparison sites that compare non-binding quotes and sell your information as a lead. We believe Reliance is in a strong position to fill the personal insurance needs of the online consumer through 5MinuteInsure.com. Our R&D team has been working aggressively at fine tuning the user experience to align with the needs and growing demand of consumers.”

“As previously discussed, this state-of-the-art platform is designed to utilize artificial intelligence (AI) to provide competitive insurance quotes online within five minutes, with minimal data input by the customer. 5minuteinsure.com combines the best of a traditional insurance agency, including the option for direct agent interaction with the ability to bind a policy either online or offline. The list of carriers offered on the platform continues to grow rapidly. We now have 11 carriers on the platform and have licenses in 46 states. These carriers have been impressed by Reliance Global Group Inc.’s investment in the user experience by using AI to bring accurate and adequately underwritten quotes to clients faster. Our initial plan is to focus on home and auto insurance, with plans to expand to additional types of insurance. Our recent acquisition of J.P. Kush and Associates provides us additional capabilities and expertise in the health insurance marketplace, which we plan to leverage longer term through 5minuteinsure.com. Overall, we are extremely encouraged by the outlook for the business and believe we are poised to disrupt the insurtech industry through our multi-channel approach utilizing both our online platform and offline agents.”

We are pleased to welcome Joshua and his team to expand our national presence.

Moreover, J.P. Kush generated revenue of more than $1.1 million over the trailing twelve months with mid-double digit operating margins. Based on a purchase price of $1,950,000, we believe this transaction has the potential to be highly accretive. The purchase has been funded through a combination of cash, restricted stock and an earnout. In addition, we believe we can help to not only grow J.P. Kush’s sales, but we anticipate meaningful operating synergies.”

Kush will support our future plans to add new insurance products to our 5minuteinsure.com platform, including health insurance policies.

We now operate through seven wholly owned agencies with plans to continue our M&A strategy. Specifically, we are targeting growing and profitable businesses that we can buy at attractive multiples and with the ability to leverage both technology and economies of scale to gain significant efficiencies.”

The goal of 5minuteinsure.com is to tap into the growing number of online shoppers. Utilizing artificial intelligence, in many cases we can provide competitive insurance quotes online within five minutes, with minimal data input by the customer. 5minuteinsure.com combines the best of a traditional insurance agency, including the option for direct agent interaction with the ability to bind a policy either online or offline.

In addition, we significantly enhanced our balance sheet through the recent public offering for gross proceeds of $12.4 million concurrent with our listing on the Nasdaq. The combination of these events provides us a much stronger platform to execute our organic growth and acquisition strategies.”

Importantly, we incurred significant company expenses in 2020 related to preparations for our Nasdaq listing, while at the same time, we invested heavily in our infrastructure and operations to support our continued expansion.

Reliance Global Group Announces Beta Launch of 5MinuteInsure.com

Online platform to compare quotes, direct leads to a local agent and bind policies within minutes

LAKEWOOD, N.J., Feb. 18, 2021 — via NewMediaWireReliance Global Group, Inc. (Nasdaq: RELI), a company engaged in the acquisition and management of insurance agencies in the United States, today announced the beta launch of its 5MinuteInsure.com platform as the next step in expanding the Company’s operations with the goal of establishing a national footprint. A video teaser of the new platform is also available at: https://youtu.be/yfWOvboPvjE.

5minuteInsure.com is a tool developed by Reliance Global to be utilized in conjunction with agency acquisitions, as well as affiliated agencies. It utilizes artificial intelligence and data mining to provide competitive insurance quotes within 5 minutes, with minimal data input. The purpose is to tap into the growing number of online shoppers in order to drive business to the Company’s insurance agencies. Consumer prospects are then transferred to the geographically closest agent and/or affiliates.

Ezra Beyman, CEO of Reliance Global Group, stated, “The beta launch of 5minuteinsure.com allows customers to rapidly compare quotes online and directs them to an agent in their area who can answer questions and bind the policy. 5minuteinsure.com complements our “bricks and mortar” operations, as we can now route leads to the agents in our network. This should be a useful tool in driving business to our platform.

“Unlike other sectors, insurance has been one of the last to adopt technology and move online. We believe 5minuteinsure.com, combined with our core insurance business, will provide an attractive solution to consumers. Specifically, we are blending traditional “human touch” insurance agencies with the convenience and speed of the modern digital age, which consumers have come to expect. Through technology, we also look to reduce back-office paperwork, allowing agents to focus on what they are good at – selling policies. We also aim to enhance operational efficiency and drive margin expansion within our insurance agencies.”

Mr. Beyman concluded, “Now that we have completed our Nasdaq listing, we are laser-focused on accelerating our business strategy. We believe the insurance market is ripe for expansion and poised for disruption through technology, and we look to 5minuteinsure to be our first venture into this space.”
