[{"type":"text","content":"Strengthened financial position and scalable tech platform pave the way for accelerated growth and margin expansion\nLAKEWOOD, NJ, July 10, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Reliance Global Group, Inc. (Nasdaq: RELI) (“Reliance,” “we,” “us,” “our” or the “Company”) today announced that it has repaid approximately $5.55 million, or approximately 50% of its long term debt, a strategic action that reduces its leverage, strengthens its balance sheet, and enhances financial flexibility. The repayments were funded through proceeds from the recently announced asset sale of Fortman Insurance Services, a wholly owned subsidiary, which generated $5.0 million in cash for the Company, with the remainder coming from the release of cash collateral held in our restricted cash accounts. As a result, annual principal, interest and service fee payments are expected to decline from approximately $2.95 million to $1.1 million — a reduction of over $1.8 million, or 61%. “Reducing our debt by approximately 50% marks a transformative milestone for Reliance and is a direct result of the financial execution and operational improvements made across the business,” said Ezra Beyman, CEO of Reliance Global Group. “This achievement reflects the strength of our cash position and our commitment to long-term financial health. By lowering our annual debt service obligations by over $1.8 million, we are meaningfully enhancing our cash flow profile. These steps also create greater flexibility to support strategic initiatives, such as our planned acquisition of Spetner Associates (“Spetner”).” Joel Markovits, Chief Financial Officer of Reliance Global Group, added, “Deleveraging our balance sheet has been a long-term goal for the Company, and also partially executes on our strategy to fund the Spetner deal by enhancing our leverage ratio, which often is a key factor to investors and lenders. Our disciplined approach to managing cash flows, expenditures and capital allocation, reflects our fiscal responsibility and strategic focus on long-term value creation that will support exponential operational growth, wider margins, and greater returns to our investors and shareholders.” About Reliance Global Group, Inc.
