**Item
1. BUSINESS**
**Overview**
Reliance
Global Group, Inc. (Reliance, we, us, or the Company) was incorporated in Florida
on August 2, 2013 under the name Ethos Media Network, Inc. In September 2018, Reliance Global Holdings, LLC, a related party, acquired
a controlling interest in the Company. On October 18, 2018, the Company changed its name to Reliance Global Group, Inc. Effective January 26, 2026, we changed our ticker symbol on the Nasdaq Capital Market from RELI to
EZRA.
We
operate as a holding company that acquires, owns, and actively manages insurance and technology-focused businesses. Historically, our
primary focus has been the acquisition and operation of wholesale and retail insurance agencies, together with the development of proprietary
InsurTech platforms designed to enhance distribution efficiency, scalability, and operational integration.
Our
strategy has historically been to acquire businesses in fragmented markets, centralize operational infrastructure, leverage
proprietary technology, and generate recurring cash flows while pursuing long-term value creation. We continue to expand our
strategy as outlined in recent developments with Scale 51 and to evaluate opportunities consistent with this holding company
model.
As
of December 31, 2025, we owned and operated six insurance-related businesses and various proprietary technology platforms. During 2025,
we also completed certain portfolio realignment transactions and capital structure initiatives, as described below.
**Portfolio
Realignment and Capital Structure**
****
During
2025, the Company completed the sale of certain insurance brokerage assets, including the Fortman Insurance Services business and the
Employee Benefits Solutions and US Benefits Alliance businesses. Proceeds from these transactions were used in part to reduce outstanding
indebtedness.
In
July 2025, the Company repaid approximately $5.0 million of long-term debt owed to Oak Street and subsequently reduced the remaining
balance through additional asset sale proceeds.
In
August 2025, the Company entered into a common stock purchase agreement with White Lion Capital, LLC providing access to up to $10.0
million of capital through an equity line of credit facility, subject to customary limitations and conditions. The facility provides
additional financial flexibility to support working capital and strategic initiatives.
****
**Digital
Asset Treasury**
****
In
September 2025, the Company adopted a digital asset treasury strategy pursuant to which it may allocate a portion of its treasury assets
to cryptocurrencies and related blockchain initiatives. The Company formed a Crypto Advisory Board to oversee this strategy and engaged
an external advisor to provide strategic guidance.
During
2025, the Company acquired digital assets as part of this initiative. The Company views its digital asset treasury strategy as a capital
allocation tool complementary to its broader holding company model. The strategy does not alter the Companys core operating focus
on insurance and technology businesses.
**Termination
of Spetner Transaction**
****
In
July 2025, the previously announced agreement to acquire Spetner Associates, Inc. was terminated. The Company expensed previously issued
non-refundable equity prepayments associated with the contemplated acquisition and has no ongoing obligations under that agreement.

**Recent
Developments**
**Strategic
Expansion Through EZRA International and Scale51**
In
January 2026, the Company launched EZRA International Group as a strategic platform intended to support the Companys expansion
through majority investments in technology-focused businesses. As part of this initiative, the Company introduced the Scale51
model, under which the Company seeks to acquire controlling ownership positions, generally targeting approximately 51%, in selected technology-driven
companies and to support their development through governance participation, operational support, and access to capital markets.
The
Company intends to continue operating and optimizing its insurance brokerage and InsurTech platforms as its core operating businesses
while selectively pursuing majority ownership interests in technology businesses in sectors such as artificial intelligence and data
analytics, cybersecurity, fintech and insurtech, and medtech and digital health.
On
January 15, 2026, the Company entered into a secured convertible promissory note with Enquantum Ltd. (Enquantum), a cybersecurity
company developing post-quantum encryption and next-generation data protection technologies, pursuant to which the Company advanced Enquantum
$166,000.
On
February 5, 2026, the Company entered into a Share Purchase Agreement with Enquantum pursuant to which the Company agreed to acquire,
over time and subject to the satisfaction of specified milestone criteria and other conditions, an aggregate equity interest equal to
51% of Enquantum on a fully diluted basis. The transactions contemplated by the Share Purchase Agreement are structured to occur through
an initial closing followed by a series of milestone-based closings, each subject to the satisfaction or waiver of customary closing
conditions.
The
aggregate purchase price to acquire the 51% ownership interest is $2,125,000, payable in tranches tied to specified monthly operational
and commercialization milestones over an anticipated 10-month period.
On
February 23, 2026, the Company completed the initial closing under the Share Purchase Agreement and converted the previously issued $166,000
secured convertible note as part of the first tranche investment. In connection with the initial closing, the Company acquired approximately
8% of Enquantums issued and outstanding share capital on a fully diluted basis, consisting of (i) the conversion of the secured
convertible note into Enquantum ordinary shares representing approximately 4% of Enquantum on a fully diluted basis and (ii) the purchase
for cash of additional Enquantum ordinary shares representing approximately 4% ownership on a fully diluted basis.
Subject
to the satisfaction of applicable milestone criteria and other conditions, Enquantum may issue additional ordinary shares to the Company
in connection with monthly tranche investments that are generally intended to increase the Companys ownership interest by approximately
4% per month until the Company reaches approximately 48% ownership on a fully diluted basis.
The
Share Purchase Agreement also provides for a final control top-up transaction intended to increase the Companys
ownership from approximately 48% to 51% of Enquantum on a fully diluted basis. As consideration for the control top-up, the Company has
agreed to issue to Enquantum shares of the Companys common stock with an aggregate value of $125,000, determined based on the
last reported sale price of the Companys common stock on The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC on the trading day immediately preceding
the applicable control top-up closing.
The
Company views this investment as an initial example of the Scale51 model.
On January 7, 2026, the Company entered into a non-binding term sheet to
acquire a majority equity interest in Scent Medical Technologies Ltd. (Scentech), an Israeli diagnostics company developing
artificial intelligence-based technologies designed to identify disease-associated molecular signatures in human breath. The proposed
transaction, which is expected to be the first potential investment of EZRA International Group, is structured to provide for majority
ownership subject to the achievement of defined clinical, regulatory, and operational milestones over time. Scentechs product candidates,
including VOX, a breath-based diagnostic platform under development for early pancreatic cancer risk assessment, and VocTracer,
a laboratory-based system under development for the detection of healthcare-associated infections and antimicrobial resistance, remain
investigational, have not been clinically validated for any intended use, and have not received regulatory clearance or approval for commercial
sale in any jurisdiction. Completion of the proposed transaction is subject to the execution of definitive agreements, the satisfaction
of customary closing conditions, and successful completion of due diligence, and there can be no assurance that the transaction will be
completed on the terms contemplated, or at all.
**Public
Offering**
****
On
January 29, 2026, the Company closed a public offering of 7,407,408 shares of its common stock (or pre-funded warrants in lieu thereof),
together with warrants to purchase up to 14,814,816 shares of common stock. The securities were sold at a combined public offering price
of $0.27 per share (or $0.269 per pre-funded warrant, in each case, in lieu of a share) and accompanying common warrants.
The
common warrants are exercisable upon issuance at an exercise price of $0.27 per share and expire two years from the initial exercise
date. For each share of common stock (or pre-funded warrant) issued in the offering, the purchaser received two common warrants, each
exercisable for one share of common stock, subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments.
H.C.
Wainwright & Co., LLC acted as the exclusive placement agent for the offering on a reasonable best efforts basis.
The
gross proceeds to the Company from the offering were approximately $2.0 million, before deducting placement agent fees and other offering
expenses. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the offering for working capital, strategic investments and acquisitions,
and general corporate purposes.
In
connection with the offering, the Company agreed to pay the placement agent (i) a cash fee equal to 7.0% of the gross proceeds of the
offering, (ii) a management fee equal to 1.0% of the gross proceeds of the offering, and (iii) reimbursement of certain accountable expenses.
The Company also issued placement agent warrants to purchase a number of shares of common stock equal to 7.0% of the aggregate number
of shares of common stock and pre-funded warrants sold in the offering. The placement agent warrants have an exercise price of $0.3375
per share and expire two years from the initial exercise date.
In
connection with the offering, the Companys officers and directors entered into lock-up agreements restricting the sale or transfer
of shares of common stock and certain related securities for a period of 30 days following the closing of the offering, subject to customary
exceptions.
The
offering was conducted pursuant to the Companys registration statement on Form S-1, which was declared effective by the Securities
and Exchange Commission on January 28, 2026.
**NASDAQ
Ticker Symbol Change**
****
On
January 22, 2026, the Company announced that its ticker symbol on the Nasdaq Capital Market will change from RELI to EZRA,
effective at the open of trading on Monday, January 26, 2026. The Companys common stock will remain listed on the Nasdaq Capital
Market and the Companys CUSIP number will remain unchanged. No action is required by the Companys stockholders in connection
with the ticker symbol change.
**Insurance
Operations and Technology Integration**
****
Insurance
operations remain the Companys primary operating foundation. We own and operate insurance agencies and related platforms that
generate commission-based revenues through the sale and servicing of insurance products.
| 2 | |
We
have sought to integrate our agency operations through centralized infrastructure and proprietary technology platforms designed to enhance
scalability and operational efficiency.
**RELI
Exchange Platform**
We
operate RELI Exchange, a business-to-business (B2B) InsurTech platform and partner network designed to support insurance
agents and agencies through technology-enabled tools and operational infrastructure.
RELI
Exchange is structured as a private-label platform that provides agents with flexibility in branding while offering centralized quoting
tools, back-office support, and access to multiple insurance carriers. The platform is intended to:
| 
| 
| 
Facilitate multi-carrier
quoting through technology-enabled workflows; | |
| 
| 
| 
Reduce administrative burden
through automation and centralized servicing support; | |
| 
| 
| 
Provide operational infrastructure,
including licensing and compliance resources; and | |
| 
| 
| 
Support scalability through
a unified technology ecosystem. | |
In
January 2024, we launched a client referral portal within the RELI Exchange platform to support referral management and client tracking
functionality.
In
September 2024, we introduced a beta version of an advanced quote and bind solution for commercial policies. During 2025, we continued
development and refinement of this platform to streamline quoting and binding workflows through automation and analytics.
We
also provide training and mentorship resources designed to support agent onboarding and business development.
**5MinuteInsure.com
(5MI)**
We
developed and launched 5MinuteInsure.com (5MI), a direct-to-consumer InsurTech platform designed to enable consumers to
compare, quote, and bind certain insurance products through a streamlined digital interface.
5MI
is currently live in 44 states and provides access to coverage through more than thirty carriers. The platform is designed to facilitate
quoting and policy binding in a time-efficient manner through automation and analytics, supporting efficient underwriting workflows,
servicing, and renewals. Elements of the 5MI technology infrastructure support and integrate with the broader RELI Exchange ecosystem.
**Insurance
Agency Industry Overview**
**Structure
of the Insurance Industry**
****
The
U.S. insurance industry is generally comprised of three principal sectors:
| 
1. | Property
and Casualty (P&C) Insurance, which includes personal lines such as
automobile and homeowners insurance, as well as commercial lines coverage for businesses; | |
| 
2. | Life
and Health Insurance, which includes life insurance, annuities, and certain health-related
products; and | |
| 
3. | Accident
and Health Insurance, typically written by insurers specializing in medical and related
coverages. | |
Insurance
carriers underwrite and assume insurance risk, establish pricing, manage claims, and maintain capital reserves. In contrast, insurance
agencies and brokers act as intermediaries between carriers and policyholders. Agencies do not bear underwriting risk; instead, they
earn commissions and other compensation based on premiums placed with carriers.
| 3 | |
This
structural distinction between carriers and agencies results in different capital requirements, risk profiles, and operating characteristics.
**Role
of Independent Insurance Agencies**
****
Independent
insurance agencies represent multiple insurance carriers and offer clients access to a range of coverage options. Agencies generate revenue
primarily through commissions, typically calculated as a percentage of written premiums, as well as renewal commissions and, in certain
cases, contingent or incentive-based compensation arrangements with carriers.
Unlike
captive agents, who are generally limited to a single carrier, independent agencies can place business with multiple carriers, which
may allow them to provide broader product selection and pricing alternatives to clients.
Revenue
for insurance agencies is generally influenced by:
| 
| Premium
pricing trends established by carriers; | |
| 
| Policy
retention rates and renewal volumes; | |
| 
| New
business production; | |
| 
| Economic
activity and business formation trends; and | |
| 
| The
competitiveness of agency distribution models. | |
Because
agencies do not assume underwriting risk, their exposure to catastrophic loss events differs materially from that of carriers. However,
agency revenues may be indirectly affected by changes in premium pricing cycles or carrier underwriting appetite.
**Industry
Fragmentation and Consolidation Trends**
****
The
insurance agency sector remains highly fragmented, consisting of a large number of small and mid-sized privately owned agencies operating
across local and regional markets. This fragmentation has historically created opportunities for consolidation by larger, well-capitalized
acquirers seeking to achieve scale efficiencies, expanded geographic reach, and operational integration.
Key
drivers of consolidation activity in the insurance agency market include:
| 
| Succession
planning challenges among agency owners; | |
| 
| Increasing
regulatory and compliance complexity; | |
| 
| Technology
investment requirements; | |
| 
| Carrier
relationship management; and | |
| 
| The
pursuit of scale-based operational efficiencies. | |
Acquirers
often seek to centralize back-office functions, leverage shared technology infrastructure, improve carrier relationships through aggregated
premium volume, and enhance cross-selling capabilities across personal and commercial lines.
While
consolidation activity has been robust in recent years, competitive dynamics for acquisition targets remain active, and transaction valuations
may be influenced by prevailing interest rates, capital availability, and earnings performance of target agencies.
**Technology
and Digital Transformation in Insurance Distribution**
****
The
insurance distribution landscape has experienced increased adoption of digital tools designed to improve customer acquisition, quoting
efficiency, data analytics, and policy servicing.
| 4 | |
Technology
adoption in the agency channel has been influenced by:
| 
| Consumer
preference for online research and digital engagement; | |
| 
| Carrier
requirements for electronic submission and data integration; | |
| 
| The
need for operational efficiency and cost management; and | |
| 
| Competitive
pressure to improve client experience. | |
InsurTech
solutions generally focus on enhancing workflow automation, data aggregation, pricing analytics, and customer interface tools. For agencies,
digital platforms may support faster quoting processes, automated renewals, improved retention tracking, and centralized policy management.
At
the same time, many consumers continue to value personalized advice and agent support, particularly for more complex commercial or specialty
coverages. As a result, hybrid distribution models that combine digital access with agent involvement have become increasingly common.
**Economics
of the Insurance Agency Model**
****
Insurance
agencies typically generate recurring revenue streams through renewal commissions. Once a policy is placed, agencies may continue to
earn compensation so long as the policy remains in force, subject to retention and carrier arrangements.
Key
characteristics of the agency model include:
| 
| Limited
direct exposure to underwriting losses; | |
| 
| Revenue
sensitivity to premium rate cycles; | |
| 
| Importance
of client retention and cross-selling; | |
| 
| Reliance
on carrier relationships and contractual agreements; and | |
| 
| Scalability
through centralized administrative infrastructure. | |
Because
commission income is tied to premium volume, periods of rate hardening in the insurance market may increase agency revenues without corresponding
increases in policy count. Conversely, soft pricing cycles may compress commission-based revenue growth.
Operational
efficiency, technology integration, and disciplined cost management can influence agency-level profitability.
**Competitive
Landscape**
****
The
insurance brokerage industry is competitive and includes:
| 
| Large
national brokerage firms; | |
| 
| Regional
and local independent agencies; | |
| 
| Private
equity-backed consolidators; | |
| 
| Captive
agency networks; and | |
| 
| Emerging
digital distribution platforms. | |
| 5 | |
Competition
is generally based on:
| 
| Product
access and carrier relationships; | |
| 
| Pricing
competitiveness; | |
| 
| Quality
of service and advisory expertise; | |
| 
| Technology
capabilities; and | |
| 
| Brand
recognition and local market presence. | |
In
addition, acquisition competition exists among consolidators and financial sponsors seeking to expand market share through strategic
transactions.
**Regulatory
Environment**
****
Insurance
distribution is regulated at the state level. Agencies and individual producers must be licensed in each jurisdiction in which they conduct
business. State insurance departments oversee licensing, market conduct, and compliance with applicable statutes and regulations.
Carriers
are subject to separate regulatory oversight, including rate approvals, capital requirements, and claims handling standards. While agencies
do not assume underwriting risk, they must comply with applicable licensing, disclosure, and consumer protection regulations.
Changes
in state or federal regulatory requirements, including disclosure obligations or restrictions on compensation structures, may impact
agency operations.
**Industry
Outlook**
****
The
insurance agency industry continues to evolve in response to technological advancements, shifting consumer expectations, regulatory developments,
and consolidation trends.
Independent
agencies that are able to integrate digital tools with advisory-based client relationships may benefit from operational efficiencies
and expanded distribution capabilities. At the same time, competitive pressures, acquisition market dynamics, and broader economic conditions
may influence growth rates and transaction activity within the sector.
The
Companys strategy is designed to operate within this framework by combining agency operations, centralized infrastructure, and
proprietary technology platforms.
**Integration
with the Companys Holding Company Strategy**
****
The
Company operates within this industry framework as a holding company that owns and actively manages operating subsidiaries. Our insurance
agency platform provides recurring commission-based revenues and operational infrastructure that support centralized capital allocation
and strategic growth initiatives. Consistent with this model, we seek to leverage the stability of our insurance operations while selectively
pursuing majority ownership interests in technology-driven businesses through our Scale51 strategy. We believe this approach enables
us to combine operating cash flow generation with disciplined capital deployment across complementary sectors, while maintaining an active
governance and management role in our controlled subsidiaries.
**One-Firm
Operating Model**
****
We
have adopted a One-Firm operating approach intended to integrate our owned agencies into a cohesive operating model. This
approach is designed to enhance collaboration, strengthen carrier relationships, and leverage centralized technology and operational
infrastructure across the organization.
As
we move into 2026, we intend to continue investing in our insurance operations and proprietary technology capabilities while evaluating
acquisition and investment opportunities consistent with our holding company strategy.

acquired agencies and platforms are integrated into shared operational systems, carrier relationships, compliance infrastructure, and
technology architecture. This approach is intended to support operational efficiencies, cross-selling opportunities, centralized data
management, and scalable growth.
**Acquisition
Strategy**
The
insurance agency market remains highly fragmented. The Company seeks to identify and acquire insurance-related businesses that are profitable
or demonstrate potential for operational improvement through integration into its centralized infrastructure.
Acquisitions
may be structured with a combination of cash consideration, debt financing, equity, or earn-out arrangements, depending on the nature
of the transaction.
The
Company evaluates opportunities based on operational performance, market position, growth potential, and strategic fit within its broader

**Government
Regulation**
The
business practices and compensation arrangements of the insurance intermediary industry, including our practices and arrangements, are
regulated by various governmental authorities. Certain of our offices are parties to profit-sharing contingent commission agreements
with certain insurance companies, including agreements providing for potential payment of revenue-sharing commissions by insurance companies
based primarily on the overall profitability of the aggregate business written with those insurance companies and/or additional factors
such as retention ratios and the overall volume of business that an office or offices place with those insurance companies. The legislatures
of various states may adopt new laws addressing contingent commission arrangements, including laws prohibiting such arrangements, and
addressing disclosure of such arrangements to insureds.
We
and our employees must be licensed to act as brokers, intermediaries, or third-party administrators by state regulatory authorities in
the locations in which we conduct business. Regulations and licensing laws vary by individual state and are often complex. The applicable
licensing laws and regulations in all states are subject to amendment or reinterpretation by regulatory authorities, and such authorities
are vested in most cases with relatively broad discretion as to the granting, revocation, suspension, and renewal of licenses. We believe
that we are in compliance with the applicable licensing laws and regulations of all states in which we currently operate. However, the
possibility still exists that we or our employees could be excluded or temporarily suspended from carrying on some or all of our activities
in, or could otherwise be subjected to penalties by, a particular jurisdiction.
Nearly
all states have insurance laws requiring personal property and casualty insurers to file rating plans, policy or coverage forms, and
other information with the states regulatory authority. In many cases, such rating plans, policy, or coverage forms, must be approved
prior to use and the regulator has the authority to disapprove a rate filing. While we are not an insurer, and thus not required to comply
with state laws and regulations regarding insurance rates, our commissions are derived from a percentage of the premium rates set by
insurers in conjunction with state law.
**Employees**
As
of December 31, 2025, we employed 40 employees across all Company subsidiaries.
We
believe that a diverse workforce is important to our success. We will continue to focus on the hiring, retention, and advancement of
underrepresented populations, and to cultivate an inclusive and diverse corporate culture. In the future, we intend to continue to evaluate
our use of human capital measures or objectives in managing our business such as the factors we employ or seek to employ in the development,
attraction and retention of personnel and maintenance of diversity in our workforce.
The
success of our business is fundamentally connected to the well-being of our people. Accordingly, we are committed to the health, safety
and wellness of our employees. We provide our employees and their families with access to a variety of innovative, flexible and convenient
health and wellness programs, including benefits that provide protection and security so they can have peace of mind concerning events
that may require time away from work or that impact their financial well-being; that support their physical and mental health by providing
tools and resources to help them improve or maintain their health status and encourage engagement in healthy behaviors; and that offer
choice where possible so they can customize their benefits to meet their needs and the needs of their families.
We
also provide robust compensation and benefits programs to help meet the needs of our employees. We believe that we maintain a satisfactory
working relationship with our employees and have not experienced any labor disputes.

**Item
1a.****RISK FACTORS**
*The
following important factors, among others, could cause our actual operating results to differ materially from those indicated or suggested
by forward-looking statements made in this Annual Report on Form 10-K or presented elsewhere by management from time to time. Investors
should carefully consider the risks described below before making an investment decision. The risks described below are not the only
ones we face. Additional risks not presently known to us or that we currently believe are not material may also significantly impair
our business operations. Our business could be harmed by any of these risks. The trading price of our common stock could decline due
to any of these risks, and investors may lose all or part of their investment.*
**Risks
Related to Our Business**
We
may experience significant fluctuations in our quarterly and annual results.
Our
quarterly and annual financial results have fluctuated in the past and may continue to fluctuate significantly in the future due to a
variety of factors, many of which are outside of our control. These fluctuations may make it difficult to evaluate our operating performance
and may cause our results of operations in a particular period to fall below the expectations of investors or securities analysts. Factors
that could cause fluctuations in our financial results include, among others:
our limited operating history in certain aspects of our business and the evolving nature of our strategic initiatives, including our
expansion through EZRA International Group and the Scale51 investment model;
our ability to identify, negotiate, finance, and complete acquisitions or strategic investments, including majority ownership investments
in technology-driven businesses, on acceptable terms or at all;
the timing, structure, and success of acquisitions, investments, or other strategic transactions, including milestone-based investments
that may occur over multiple periods;
our ability to integrate acquired businesses or investments successfully and realize anticipated strategic or financial benefits;
our ability to obtain additional financing, if required, to complete acquisitions, fund strategic investments, or support the operations
and growth of existing and target businesses;
the performance of companies in which we hold minority or controlling ownership interests, including the timing of their operational,
commercialization, or technological development milestones;
the availability of suitable acquisition or investment opportunities and competition for such opportunities;
volatility in capital markets and the availability and cost of capital;
our inability to retain or attract qualified employees, including key executives and management personnel;
cybersecurity incidents or other interruptions to our information technology systems, data security infrastructure, or outsourced technology
services;
rapid technological changes that may require additional investment in technology, product development, or operational capabilities;
changes in data privacy, cybersecurity, and other regulatory requirements applicable to our operations or those of companies in which
we invest;
economic conditions, inflation, interest rate changes, and other macroeconomic factors that may impact customer demand, acquisition activity,
or capital availability;
geographic concentration of our insurance operations in certain states, including Michigan, New York, Montana, New Jersey, Ohio, and
Illinois;
our ability to comply with financial and operational covenants contained in financing or other contractual arrangements;
restrictions contained in certain agreements that may limit the discretion of our management in operating our business or pursuing strategic
opportunities;
the inherent uncertainties involved in estimates, judgments, and assumptions used in the preparation of financial statements in accordance
with U.S. GAAP; and
the improper disclosure of confidential or proprietary information.
| 11 | |
| | |
These
factors, some of which are not within our control, may cause the price of our common stock to fluctuate substantially. If our operating
results fail to meet or exceed the expectations of securities analysts or investors, our stock price could drop suddenly and significantly.
**Our
strategic expansion through EZRA International Group and the Scale51 investment model involves significant risks and uncertainties.**
****
In
January 2026, we launched EZRA International Group and introduced the Scale51 investment model as part of our strategy to pursue majority
ownership interests in selected technology-driven businesses. Under this model, we may seek to acquire controlling ownership positions,
often through milestone-based or staged investments over time. This strategy exposes us to a number of risks that differ from those associated
with our traditional insurance brokerage and InsurTech operations.
Technology
companies, particularly early-stage or growth-stage businesses, often face substantial operational, technological, regulatory, and commercialization
risks. Many such companies may have limited operating histories, unproven technologies, or uncertain paths to revenue generation or profitability.
As a result, investments in these businesses may not achieve the anticipated strategic, operational, or financial benefits.
In
addition, our Scale51 strategy may involve acquiring ownership interests through milestone-based investments that occur over multiple
periods. These structures may require us to commit capital over time while the underlying business is still developing, and the anticipated
milestones may not be achieved within expected timeframes or at all. If these milestones are not achieved, or if the underlying businesses
do not perform as expected, our investment returns and strategic objectives could be adversely affected.
Our
ability to successfully execute this strategy will depend on a number of factors, including our ability to identify suitable investment
opportunities, conduct effective due diligence, negotiate favorable transaction terms, integrate acquired businesses, and support the
growth and operations of the companies in which we invest. We may also be required to commit additional capital to support the operations,
development, or commercialization activities of these companies, and such capital may not be available on acceptable terms or at all.
If
our Scale51 strategy is not successfully implemented, or if the companies in which we invest fail to perform as anticipated, our business,
financial condition, results of operations, and prospects could be materially adversely affected.
**Our
investments in companies located in Israel expose us to risks related to geopolitical instability, armed conflict, and regional security
conditions.**
As
part of our strategic initiatives, including the Scale51 investment model implemented through EZRA International Group, we may invest
in or acquire ownership interests in technology companies located in Israel. Israel has historically experienced periods of geopolitical
instability, armed conflict, and security threats involving neighboring states and non-state actors. In recent years, tensions between
Israel and Iran and their respective regional allies have escalated, including military operations, missile attacks, cyber operations,
and other forms of conflict.
Military
conflicts, acts of terrorism, cyberattacks, or other hostilities involving Israel or the broader Middle East region could disrupt the
operations of companies located in Israel or otherwise adversely affect their business activities. Such events could result in damage
to infrastructure, interruption of business operations, workforce disruptions due to military mobilization, delays in research and development
activities, supply chain interruptions, restrictions on travel or transportation, or limitations on access to capital markets.
In
addition, geopolitical instability may negatively impact economic conditions, investor sentiment, and capital availability in Israel
and the broader region. Companies operating in Israel may experience increased operating costs, reduced access to financing, regulatory
changes, or other operational challenges during periods of conflict or heightened security conditions.
To
the extent that we invest in or acquire companies located in Israel, our business, financial condition, results of operations, and prospects
could be materially adversely affected by geopolitical developments, armed conflict, or other security-related disruptions in the region.
| 12 | |
| | |
**The
Company has limited resources and there is significant competition for business combination opportunities. Therefore, the Company may
not be able to acquire other assets or businesses.**
The
Company expects to encounter intense competition from other entities having a business objective similar to ours, which are also competing
for acquisitions. Many of these entities are well established and have extensive experience in identifying and effecting business combinations
directly or through affiliates. Many of these competitors possess greater technical, human, financial and other resources. While the
Company believes that there are numerous potential target businesses that it could acquire, the Companys ability to compete in
acquiring certain sizable target businesses might be limited if the Companys limited financial resources are less than that of
its competitors. This inherent competitive limitation gives others an advantage in pursuing the acquisition of certain target businesses.
**The
Company may be unable to obtain additional financing, if required, to complete an acquisition, or to Company the operations and growth
of existing and target business, which could compel the Company to restructure a potential business transaction or abandon a particular
business combination.**
To
date, much of our capital for acquiring and operating insurance agencies comes from loans from unaffiliated lenders, from direct
market capital raises or funds provided by an affiliate. We may be required to seek additional financing. We cannot assure you that
such financing would be available on acceptable terms, if at all. If additional financing proves to be unavailable, we would be
compelled to restructure or existing business and/or abandon a proposed acquisition or acquisitions. In addition, if we consummate
additional acquisitions, we may require additional financing to complement the operations or growth of that business. The failure to
secure additional financing could have a material adverse effect on the continued development or growth of our business.
**We
hold our cash and cash equivalents that we use to meet our working capital and operating expense needs in deposit accounts that could
be adversely affected if the financial institution holding such funds fail.**
We
hold our cash and cash equivalents that we use to meet our working capital and operating expense needs in deposit accounts at one financial
institution. The balance held in these accounts exceeds the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, or FDIC, standard deposit insurance
limit of $250,000. If the financial institution in which we hold such funds fails or is subject to significant adverse conditions in
the financial or credit markets, we could be subject to a risk of loss of all or a portion of such uninsured funds or be subject to a
delay in accessing all or a portion of such uninsured funds. Any such loss or lack of access to these funds could adversely impact our
short-term liquidity and ability to meet our operating expense obligations, including payroll obligations.
For
example, on March 10, 2023, Silicon Valley Bank, or SVB, and Signature Bank, were closed by state regulators and the FDIC was appointed
receiver for each bank. The FDIC created successor bridge banks and all deposits of SVB and Signature Bank were transferred to the bridge
banks under a systemic risk exception approved by the United States Department of the Treasury, the Federal Reserve and the FDIC. If
the financial institution in which we hold funds for working capital and operating expenses were to fail, we cannot provide any assurances
that such governmental agencies would take action to protect our uninsured deposits or investments in a similar manner.
**Our
inability to retain or hire qualified employees, as well as the loss of any of our executive officers, could negatively impact our ability
to retain existing business and generate new business.**
Our
success depends on our ability to attract and retain skilled and experienced personnel. There is significant competition from within
the insurance industry and from businesses outside the industries for exceptional employees, especially in key positions. If we are not
able to successfully attract, retain and motivate our employees, our business, financial results and reputation could be materially and
adversely affected.
Losing
employees who manage or support substantial customer relationships or possess substantial experience or expertise could adversely affect
our ability to secure and complete customer engagements, which would adversely affect our results of operations. Also, if any of our
key personnel were to join an existing competitor or form a competing company, some of our customers could choose to use the services
of that competitor instead of our services. While our key personnel are generally prohibited by contract from soliciting our employees
and customers for a two-year period following separation from employment with us, they are not prohibited from competing with us.
| 13 | |
| | |
In
addition, we could be adversely affected if we fail to adequately plan for the succession of our senior leaders and key executives. We
cannot guarantee that the services of these executives will continue to be available to us. The loss of our senior leaders or other key
personnel, or our inability to continue to identify, recruit and retain such personnel, or to do so at reasonable compensation levels,
could materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations, cash flows and financial condition.
**Our
growth strategy depends, in part, on the acquisition of other insurance intermediaries, which may not be available on acceptable terms
in the future or which, if consummated, may not be advantageous to us.**
Our
growth strategy partially includes the acquisition of other insurance intermediaries. Our ability to successfully identify suitable acquisition
candidates, complete acquisitions, integrate acquired businesses into our operations, and expand into new markets requires us to implement
and continuously improve our operations and our financial and management information systems. Integrated, acquired businesses may not
achieve levels of revenues or profitability comparable to our existing operations, or otherwise perform as expected. In addition, we
compete for acquisition and expansion opportunities with firms and banks that may have substantially greater resources than we do. Acquisitions
also involve a number of special risks, such as diversion of managements attention; difficulties in the integration of acquired
operations and retention of personnel; increase in expenses and working capital requirements, which could reduce our return on invested
capital; entry into unfamiliar markets or lines of business; unanticipated problems or legal liabilities; estimation of the acquisition
earn-out payables; and tax and accounting issues, some or all of which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations,
financial condition and cash flows. Post-acquisition deterioration of operating performance could also result in lower or negative earnings
contribution and/or goodwill impairment charges.
**A
cybersecurity attack, or any other interruption in information technology and/or data security and/or outsourcing relationships, could
adversely affect our business, financial condition, and reputation.**
We
rely on information technology and third-party vendors to provide effective and efficient service to our customers, process claims, and
timely and accurately report information to carriers which often involves secure processing of confidential sensitive, proprietary, and
other types of information. Cybersecurity breaches of any of the systems we rely on may result from circumvention of security systems,
denial-of-service attacks or other cyber-attacks, hacking, phishing attacks, computer viruses, ransomware, malware, employee
or insider error, malfeasance, social engineering, physical breaches, or other actions, any of which could expose us to data loss, monetary
and reputational damages and significant increases in compliance costs. An interruption of our access to, or an inability to access,
our information technology, telecommunications or other systems could significantly impair our ability to perform such functions on a
timely basis. If sustained or repeated, such a business interruption, system failure or service denial could result in a deterioration
of our ability to write and process new and renewal business, provide customer service, pay claims in a timely manner or perform other
necessary business functions. We have from time-to-time experienced cybersecurity breaches, such as computer viruses, unauthorized parties
gaining access to our information technology systems and similar incidents, which to date have not had a material impact on our business.
Additionally,
we are an acquisitive organization and the process of integrating the information systems of the businesses we acquire is complex and
exposes us to additional risk as we might not adequately identify weaknesses in the targets information systems, which could expose
us to unexpected liabilities or make our own systems more vulnerable to attack. In the future, any material breaches of cybersecurity,
or media reports of the same, even if untrue, could cause us to experience reputational harm, loss of clients and revenue, loss of proprietary
data, regulatory actions and scrutiny, sanctions or other statutory penalties, litigation, liability for failure to safeguard clients
information or financial losses. Such losses may not be insured against or not fully covered through insurance we maintain.
**Rapid
technological change may require additional resources and time to adequately respond to dynamics, which may adversely affect our business
and operating results.**
Frequent
technological changes, new products and services and evolving industry standards are influencing the insurance businesses. The Internet,
for example, is increasingly used to securely transmit benefits, property and personal information, and related information to customers
and to facilitate business-to-business information exchange and transactions.
We
are continuously taking steps to upgrade and expand our information systems capabilities. Maintaining, protecting, and enhancing these
capabilities to keep pace with evolving industry and regulatory standards, and changing customer preferences, requires an ongoing commitment
of significant resources. If the information we rely upon to run our businesses was found to be inaccurate or unreliable or if we fail
to effectively maintain our information systems and data integrity, we could experience operational disruptions, regulatory or other
legal problems, increases in operating expenses, loss of existing customers, difficulty in attracting new customers, or suffer other
adverse consequences.
| 14 | |
| | |
**Changes
in data privacy and protection laws and regulations, or any failure to comply with such laws and regulations, could adversely affect
our business and financial results.**
We
are subject to a variety of continuously evolving and developing laws and regulations globally regarding privacy, data protection, and
data security, including those related to the collection, storage, handling, use, disclosure, transfer, and security of personal data.
Significant uncertainty exists as privacy and data protection laws may be interpreted and applied differently from country to country
and may create inconsistent or conflicting requirements. These laws apply to transfers of information among our affiliates, as well as
to transactions we enter into with third party vendors. These and similar initiatives around the world could increase the cost of developing,
implementing, or securing our servers and require us to allocate more resources to improved technologies, adding to our information technology
and compliance costs. In addition, enforcement actions and investigations by regulatory authorities related to data security incidents
and privacy violations continue to increase. The enactment of more restrictive laws, rules, regulations or future enforcement actions
or investigations could impact us through increased costs or restrictions on our business, and noncompliance could result in regulatory
penalties and significant legal liability.
**Because
our insurance business is highly concentrated in Michigan, New York, Montana, New Jersey, Ohio, and Illinois adverse economic conditions,
natural disasters, or regulatory changes in these regions could adversely affect our financial condition.**
A
significant portion of our insurance business is concentrated in Michigan, New York, Montana, New Jersey, Ohio, and Illinois. The insurance business is primarily a state-regulated industry, and therefore, state legislatures may enact laws that adversely
affect the insurance industry. Because our business is concentrated in these four states, we face greater exposure to unfavorable changes
in regulatory conditions in those states than insurance intermediaries whose operations are more diversified through a greater number
of states. In addition, the occurrence of adverse economic conditions, natural or other disasters, or other circumstances specific to
or otherwise significantly impacting these states could adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
We are susceptible to losses and interruptions caused by hurricanes or other weather conditions, and other possible events such as terrorist
acts and other natural or man-made disasters. Our insurance coverage with respect to natural disasters is limited and is subject to deductibles
and coverage limits. Such coverage may not be adequate or may not continue to be available at commercially reasonable rates and terms.
**If
we fail to comply with the covenants contained in certain of our agreements, our liquidity, results of operations and financial condition
may be adversely affected.**
The
Oak Street credit agreements, in the aggregate principal amount of $5,101,266 and $11,060,319, as of December 31, 2025 and 2024,
that govern our debt contain various covenants and other limitations with which we must comply with, including covenants for the
debt service coverage ratio and debt to EBITDA ratio and a covenant that at all times that the loans are outstanding: (i) Ezra
Beyman, our chief executive officer, Debra Beyman, Mr. Beymans wife, or Yaakov Beyman, son of Mr. and Ms. Beyman, or someone
else approved by Oak Street, as applicable, will be the manager of the current subsidiaries of the Company, (ii) Mr. Ezra Beyman
will be President and Chairperson of the Board of the Company, and (iii) Reliance Global Holdings will continue to remain a
shareholder of the Companys equity and Ezra and Debra will be the sole owners of Reliance Global Holdings as tenants in
entirety. The credit agreements also contain provisions which cause a cross default if we default our obligations
under other material contracts to which we are parties. The credit agreements contain customary and usual events of default,
including, subject to certain specified cure periods and notice requirements, the Companys or one of its subsidiaries
failure to comply with the covenants therein. Upon an event of default, the lender has customary and usual remedies to cure these
defaults including, but not limited to, the ability to accelerate the indebtedness. As of December 31, 2025, the Company is in
compliance with all its financial covenants.
**Certain
of our agreements contain various covenants that limit the discretion of our management in operating our business and could prevent us
from engaging in certain potentially beneficial activities.**
The
restrictive covenants in our debt agreements may impact how we operate our business and prevent us from engaging in certain potentially
beneficial activities. Among other covenants, our debt agreements require us to maintain a minimum ratio of EBITDA, adjusted for certain
transaction-related items (Covenant EBITDA), to interest expense and a maximum ratio of net indebtedness to Covenant EBITDA.
Our compliance with these covenants could limit managements discretion in operating our business and could prevent us from engaging
in certain potentially beneficial activities.

**There
are inherent uncertainties involved in estimates, judgments and assumptions used in the preparation of financial statements in accordance
with U.S. GAAP. Any changes in estimates, judgments and assumptions could have a material adverse effect on our financial position and
results of operations and therefore our business.**
The
preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP involves making estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect reported
amounts of assets (including intangible assets), liabilities and related reserves, revenues, expenses, and income. Estimates, judgments
and assumptions are inherently subject to change in the future, and any such changes could result in corresponding changes to the values
of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and income, and could have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of
operations and cash flows.
**Improper
disclosure of confidential information could negatively impact our business.**
We
are responsible for maintaining the security and privacy of our customers confidential and proprietary information and the personal
data of their employees. We have put in place policies, procedures and technological safeguards designed to protect the security and
privacy of this information; however, we cannot guarantee that this information will not be improperly disclosed or accessed. Disclosure
of this information could harm our reputation and subject us to liability under our contracts and laws that protect personal data, resulting
in increased costs or loss of revenues.
**Our
business, results of operations, financial condition and liquidity may be materially adversely affected by certain actual and potential
claims, regulatory actions and proceedings.**
We
are subject to various actual and potential claims, regulatory actions and other proceedings including those relating to alleged errors
and omissions in connection with the placement or servicing of insurance and/or the provision of services in the ordinary course of business,
of which we cannot, and likely will not be able to, predict the outcome with certainty. Because we often assist customers with matters
involving substantial amounts of money, including the placement of insurance and the handling of related claims that customers may assert,
errors and omissions claims against us may arise alleging potential liability for all or part of the amounts in question. Also, the failure
of an insurer with whom we place business could result in errors and omissions claims against us by our customers, which could adversely
affect our results of operations and financial condition. Claimants may seek large damage awards, and these claims may involve potentially
significant legal costs, including punitive damages. Such claims, lawsuits and other proceedings could, for example, include claims for
damages based upon allegations that our employees or sub-agents failed to procure coverage, report claims on behalf of customers, provide
insurance companies with complete and accurate information relating to the risks being insured or appropriately apply funds that we hold
for our customers on a fiduciary basis. In addition, given the long-tail nature of professional liability claims, errors and omissions
matters can relate to matters dating back many years. Where appropriate, we have established provisions against these potential matters
that we believe to be adequate in the light of current information and legal advice, and we adjust such provisions from time to time
according to developments.
While
most of the errors and omissions claims made against us (subject to our self-insured deductibles) have been covered by our professional
indemnity insurance, our business, results of operations, financial condition and liquidity may be adversely affected if, in the future,
our insurance coverage proves to be inadequate or unavailable, or if there is an increase in liabilities for which we self-insure. Our
ability to obtain professional indemnity insurance in the amounts and with the deductibles we desire in the future may be adversely impacted
by general developments in the market for such insurance or our own claims experience. In addition, regardless of monetary costs, these
matters could have a material adverse effect on our reputation and cause harm to our carrier, customer or employee relationships, or
divert personnel and management resources.
**Our
business could be adversely impacted by inflation.**
Increases
in inflation may have an adverse effect on our business. Current and future inflationary effects may be driven by, among other things,
supply chain disruptions and governmental stimulus or fiscal policies. Continuing increases in inflation could impact the overall demand
for our products, our costs for labor, material and services, and the margins we are able to realize on our products, all of which could
have an adverse impact on our business, financial position, results of operations and cash flows. Inflation may also result in higher
interest rates, which in turn would result in higher interest.

**Risks
Related to the Insurance Industry**
**We
may experience increased competition from insurance companies, technology companies and the financial services industry, as well as the
shift away from traditional insurance markets.**
The
insurance intermediary business is highly competitive and we actively compete with numerous firms for customers, properties and insurance
companies, many of which have relationships with insurance companies, or have a significant presence in niche insurance markets that
may give them an advantage over us. Other competitive concerns may include the quality of our products and services, our pricing, and
the ability of some of our customers to self-insure and the entrance of technology companies into the insurance intermediary business.
Several insurance companies are engaged in the direct sale of insurance, primarily to individuals, and do not pay commissions to agents
and brokers. In addition, and to the extent that banks, securities firms, private equity companies, and insurance companies affiliate,
the financial services industry may experience further consolidation, and we therefore may experience increased competition from insurance
companies and the financial services industry, as a growing number of larger financial institutions increasingly, and aggressively, offer
a wider variety of financial services, including insurance intermediary services.
**Our
business, and therefore our results of operations and financial condition, may be adversely affected by conditions that result in reduced
insurer capacity.**
Our
results of operations depend on the continued capacity of insurance carriers to underwrite risk and provide coverage, which depends in
turn on those insurance companies ability to procure reinsurance. Capacity could also be reduced by insurance companies failing
or withdrawing from writing certain coverages that we offer to our customers. We have no control over these matters. To the extent that
reinsurance becomes less widely available or significantly more expensive, we may not be able to procure the amount or types of coverage
that our customers desire and the coverage we are able to procure for our customers may be more expensive or limited.
**Quarterly
and annual variations in our commissions that result from the timing of policy renewals and the net effect of new and lost business production
may have unexpected effects on our results of operations.**
Our
commission income (including profit-sharing contingent commissions and override commissions) can vary quarterly or annually due to the
timing of policy renewals and the net effect of new and lost business production. We do not control the factors that cause these variations.
Specifically, customers demand for insurance products can influence the timing of renewals, new business, and lost business (which
includes policies that are not renewed), and cancellations. In addition, we rely on insurance companies for the payment of certain commissions.
Because these payments are processed internally by these insurance companies, we may not receive a payment that is otherwise expected
from a particular insurance company in a particular quarter or year until after the end of that period, which can adversely affect our
ability to forecast these revenues and therefore budget for significant future expenditures. Quarterly and annual fluctuations in revenues
based upon increases and decreases associated with the timing of new business, policy renewals and payments from insurance companies
may adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
| 17 | |
| | |
Profit-sharing
contingent commissions are special revenue-sharing commissions paid by insurance companies based upon the profitability, volume and/or
growth of the business placed with such companies generally during the prior year. Override commissions are paid by insurance companies
based upon the volume of business that we place with them and are generally paid over the course of the year. Because profit-sharing
contingent commissions and override commissions affect our revenues, any decrease in their payment to us could adversely affect our results
of operations, profitability, and our financial condition.
**Our
business practices and compensation arrangements are subject to uncertainty due to potential changes in regulations.**
The
business practices and compensation arrangements of the insurance intermediary industry, including our practices and arrangements, are
subject to uncertainty due to investigations by various governmental authorities. Certain of our offices are parties to profit-sharing
contingent commission agreements with certain insurance companies, including agreements providing for potential payment of revenue-sharing
commissions by insurance companies based primarily on the overall profitability of the aggregate business written with those insurance
companies and/or additional factors such as retention ratios and the overall volume of business that an office or offices place with
those insurance companies. Additionally, to a lesser extent, some of our offices are parties to override commission agreements with certain
insurance companies, which provide for commission rates in excess of standard commission rates to be applied to specific lines of business,
such as group health business, and which are based primarily on the overall volume of business that such office or offices placed with
those insurance companies. The legislatures of various states may adopt new laws addressing contingent commission arrangements, including
laws prohibiting such arrangements, and addressing disclosure of such arrangements to insureds. Various state departments of insurance
may also adopt new regulations addressing these matters which could adversely affect our results of operations.
**Risk
of lack of knowledge in distant geographic markets**
Although
the Company intends to focus its investments in locations with which we are generally familiar, the Company runs a risk of experiencing
underwriting challenges or issues associated with a lack of familiarity in some markets. Each market has nuances and idiosyncrasies that
affect values, marketability, desirability, and demand for individual assets that may not be easily understood from afar. While we believe
we can effectively mitigate these risks in a myriad of ways, there is no guarantee that investments in any geographic market will perform
as expected.
**Potential
liability or other expenditures associated with potential environmental contamination may be costly.**
Various
federal, state, and local laws subject multifamily residential community owners or operators to liability for management, and the costs
of removal or remediation, of certain potentially hazardous materials that may be present in the land or buildings of a multifamily residential
community. Potentially hazardous materials may include polychlorinated biphenyls, petroleum-based fuels, lead-based paint or asbestos,
among other materials. Such laws often impose liability without regard to fault or whether the owner or operator knew of, or was responsible
for, the presence of such materials. The presence of, or the failure to manage or remediate properly, these materials may adversely affect
occupancy at such apartment communities as well as the ability to sell or finance such apartment communities. In addition, governmental
agencies may bring claims for costs associated with investigation and remediation actions, damages to natural resources and for potential
fines or penalties in connection with such damage or with respect to the improper management of hazardous materials. Moreover, private
plaintiffs may potentially make claims for investigation and remediation costs they incur or personal injury, disease, disability or
other infirmities related to the alleged presence of hazardous materials at a multifamily residential community. In addition to potential
environmental liabilities or costs associated with our current multifamily residential communities, we may also be responsible for such
liabilities or costs associated with communities we acquire or manage in the future, or multifamily residential communities we no longer
own or operate.
**We
compete in a highly regulated industry, which may result in increased expenses or restrictions on our operations.**
We
conduct business in several states of the United States of America and are subject to comprehensive regulation and supervision by government
agencies in each of those states. The primary purpose of such regulation and supervision is to provide safeguards for policyholders rather
than to protect the interests of our shareholders, and it is difficult to anticipate how changes in such regulation would be implemented
and enforced. As a result, such regulation and supervision could reduce our profitability or growth by increasing compliance costs, technology
compliance, restricting the products or services we may sell, the markets we may enter, the methods by which we may sell our products
and services, or the prices we may charge for our services and the form of compensation we may accept from our customers, carriers and
third parties.
| 18 | |
| | |
The
laws of the various state jurisdictions establish supervisory agencies with broad administrative powers with respect to, among other
things, licensing of entities to transact business, licensing of agents, admittance of assets, regulating premium rates, approving policy
forms, regulating unfair trade and claims practices, determining technology and data protection requirements, establishing reserve requirements
and solvency standards, requiring participation in guarantee funds and shared market mechanisms, and restricting payment of dividends.
Also, in response to perceived excessive cost or inadequacy of available insurance, states have from time to time created state insurance
funds and assigned risk pools, which compete directly, on a subsidized basis, with private insurance providers. We act as agents and
brokers for such state insurance funds and assigned risk pools in Michigan as well as certain other states. These state funds and pools
could choose to reduce the sales or brokerage commissions we receive. Any such reductions, in a state in which we have substantial operations
could affect the profitability of our operations in such state or cause us to change our marketing focus.
Further,
state insurance regulators and the NAIC continually re-examine existing laws and regulations, and such re-examination may result in the
enactment of insurance-related laws and regulations, or the issuance of interpretations thereof, that adversely affect our business.
Certain federal financial services modernization legislation could lead to additional federal regulation of the insurance industry in
the coming years, which could result in increased expenses or restrictions on our operations.
Other
legislative developments that could adversely affect us include: changes in our business compensation model as a result of regulatory
developments (for example, the Affordable Care Act); and federal and state governments establishing programs to provide health insurance
or, in certain cases, property insurance in catastrophe-prone areas or other alternative market types of coverage, that compete with,
or completely replace, insurance products offered by insurance carriers. Also, as climate change issues become more prevalent, the U.S.
and foreign governments are beginning to respond to these issues. This increasing governmental focus on climate change may result in
new environmental regulations that may negatively affect us and our customers. This could cause us to incur additional direct costs in
complying with any new environmental regulations, as well as increased indirect costs resulting from our customers incurring additional
compliance costs that get passed on to us. These costs may adversely impact our results of operations and financial condition.
Although
we believe that we are in compliance in all material respects with applicable local, state, and federal laws, rules and regulations,
there can be no assurance that more restrictive laws, rules, regulations or interpretations thereof, will not be adopted in the future
that could make compliance more difficult or expensive.
**Risks
Related to Investing in our Securities**
**We
may experience volatility in our stock price that could affect your investment.**
The
market price of our common stock may be subject to significant fluctuations in response to various factors, including quarterly fluctuations
in our operating results; changes in securities analysts estimates of our future earnings; changes in securities analysts
predictions regarding the short-term and long-term future of our industry; changes to the tax code; and our loss of significant customers
or significant business developments relating to us or our competitors. Our common stocks market price also may be affected by
our inability to meet stock analysts earnings and other expectations. Any failure to meet such expectations, even if minor, could
cause the market price of our common stock to decline. In addition, stock markets have generally experienced a high level of price and
volume volatility, and the market prices of equity securities of many listed companies have experienced wide price fluctuations not necessarily
related to the operating performance of such companies. These broad market fluctuations may adversely affect our common stocks
market price. In the past, securities class action lawsuits frequently have been instituted against companies following periods of volatility
in the market price of such companies securities. If any such litigation is initiated against us, it could result in substantial
costs and a diversion of managements attention and resources, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results
of operations, financial condition, and cash flows.
**Our
failure to meet the continued listing requirements of The Nasdaq Capital Market could result in a delisting of our common stock.**
Our
shares of common stock are currently listed on Nasdaq. If we fail to satisfy the continued listing requirements of The Nasdaq Capital
Market, such as the corporate governance requirements, minimum bid price requirement or the minimum stockholders equity requirement,
Nasdaq may take steps to delist our common stock. Any delisting would likely have a negative effect on the price of our common stock
and would impair stockholders ability to sell or purchase their common stock when they wish to do so.
| 19 | |
| | |
Any
perception that we may not comply with Nasdaq continued listing requirements or a delisting of our common stock by Nasdaq could adversely
affect our ability to attract new investors, decrease the liquidity of the outstanding shares of our common stock, reduce the price at
which such shares trade and increase the transaction costs inherent in trading such shares with overall negative effects for our stockholders.
In addition, delisting of our common stock from Nasdaq could deter broker-dealers from making a market in or otherwise seeking or generating
interest in our common stock, and might deter certain institutions and persons from investing in our common stock.
**If
we fail to satisfy Nasdaqs continued listing requirements, including the requirement to maintain a minimum market value of listed
securities of $5 million, our common stock may be delisted, which could adversely affect the liquidity and market price of our securities.**
****
Our
common stock is currently listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market. Nasdaq imposes a number of continued listing requirements on issuers,
including requirements relating to minimum stockholders equity, minimum bid price, public float, and the market value of listed
securities. If we fail to satisfy any of these continued listing standards, Nasdaq may take steps to delist our common stock.
Nasdaq
has established, and may from time to time modify, continued listing standards that include a requirement that a company maintain a minimum
market value of listed securities of $5 million. If the market value of our listed securities were to fall below $5 million for a sustained
period, we could be determined to be out of compliance with Nasdaqs continued listing requirements. In such event, Nasdaq may
provide us with notice of non-compliance and, depending on the circumstances and applicable rules, may initiate delisting proceedings.
If
our common stock were to be delisted from Nasdaq, trading of our common stock could be conducted in the over-the-counter market, including
on the OTC Markets or other quotation systems. Trading in the over-the-counter market is generally characterized by decreased trading
volume, greater price volatility, and reduced liquidity compared to trading on a national securities exchange. As a result, an investor
may find it more difficult to dispose of, or obtain accurate quotations for, our securities.
In
addition, the delisting of our common stock from Nasdaq could materially adversely affect our ability to raise additional capital, could
result in reduced analyst coverage and investor interest in our securities, and could negatively impact the perception of our companys
financial condition and prospects. Any of these factors could cause the market price of our common stock to decline and could materially
and adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
**The
Companys CEO has common stock equity and debt interests.**
As
of March 10, 2026, our CEO and Chairman of the Board, Ezra Beyman, is the beneficial owner of approximately 3.1% of the Companys
common stock, consisting of 659,780 common shares.
We have entered into a revolving credit facility with an entity beneficially owned by our Chief Executive Officer,
which creates conflicts of interest and may adversely affect our liquidity and financial condition. We are party to a revolving credit
facility with YES Americana Group, LLC, an entity beneficially owned by our Chief Executive Officer, pursuant to which Americana has agreed
to provide up to $2.0 million of unsecured financing to us. Although the facility bears a below-market interest rate and provides flexibility
for working capital and acquisition-related costs, it creates conflicts of interest because our Chief Executive Officer has an interest
in the lender that may differ from the interests of our stockholders. The terms of this arrangement, including availability, maturity,
and repayment provisions, may not reflect those that could have been obtained from an unaffiliated third party. In addition, amounts outstanding
under the facility are payable upon maturity or earlier acceleration following an event of default, which could require us to use cash
that otherwise would be available for operations or strategic initiatives. Any inability to repay or refinance amounts outstanding under
this facility could adversely affect our liquidity, financial condition, and results of operations.
Under
our credit agreements with Oak Street, the Company has agreed that at all times that the loans are outstanding: (i) Ezra Beyman, our
CEO and Chairman of the Board, Debra Beyman, Mr. Beymans wife, or Yaakov Beyman, son of Mr. and Ms. Beyman, or someone else approved
by Oak Street, as applicable, will be the manager of the current subsidiaries of the Company, (ii) Mr. Ezra Beyman will be President
and Chairperson of the Board of the Company, and (iii) Reliance Global Holdings will continue to remain a shareholder of the Companys
equity and Ezra and Debra will be the sole owners of Reliance Global Holdings as tenants in entirety. The loans by Oak Street immediately
mature and become due and payable if the Company fails to comply with these provisions, subject to certain notice and/or cure periods.
**Broad
discretion of management.**
Any
person who invests in the Companys common stock will do so without an opportunity to evaluate the specific merits or risks of
any prospective acquisition. As a result, investors will be entirely dependent on the broad discretion and judgment of management in
connection with the selection of acquisitions. There can be no assurance that determinations made by the Companys management will
permit us to achieve the Companys business objectives.
**Future
sales or other dilution of our equity could adversely affect the market price of our common stock.**
We
grow our business organically as well as through acquisitions. One method of acquiring companies or otherwise Companying our corporate
activities is through the issuance of additional equity securities. The issuance of any additional shares of common or of preferred stock
or convertible securities could be substantially dilutive to holders of our common stock. Moreover, to the extent that we issue restricted
stock units, performance stock units, options or warrants to purchase shares of our common stock in the future and those options or warrants
are exercised or as the restricted stock units or performance stock units vest, our stockholders may experience further dilution. Holders
of our common stock have no preemptive rights that entitle holders to purchase their pro rata share of any offering of shares of any
class or series and, therefore, such sales or offerings could result in increased dilution to our stockholders. The market price of our
common stock could decline as a result of sales of shares of our common stock or the perception that such sales could occur.
| 20 | |
| | |
**The
price of our common stock may fluctuate significantly, and this may make it difficult to resell shares of common stock at attractive
prices.**
The
trading price of our common stock may fluctuate widely as a result of a number of factors, including the risk factors described above
many of which are outside our control. In addition, the stock market is subject to fluctuations in the share prices and trading volumes
that affect the market prices of the shares of many companies. These broad market fluctuations have adversely affected and may continue
to adversely affect the market price of our common stock. Among the factors that could affect our stock price are:
| 
| 
| 
General
economic and political conditions such as recessions, economic downturns and acts of war or terrorism; | |
| 
| 
| 
Quarterly
variations in our operating results; | |
| 
| 
| 
Seasonality
of our business cycle; | |
| 
| 
| 
Changes
in the markets expectations about our operating results; | |
| 
| 
| 
Our
operating results failing to meet the expectation of securities analysts or investors in a particular period; | |
| 
| 
| 
Changes
in financial estimates and recommendations by securities analysts concerning us or the insurance brokerage or financial services
industries in general; | |
| 
| 
| 
Operating
and stock price performance of other companies that investors deem comparable to us; | |
| 
| 
| 
News
reports relating to trends in our markets, including any expectations regarding an upcoming hard or soft
market; | |
| 
| 
| 
Cyberattacks
and other cybersecurity incidents; | |
| 
| 
| 
Changes
in laws and regulations affecting our business; | |
| 
| 
| 
Material
announcements by us or our competitors; | |
| 
| 
| 
The
impact or perceived impact of developments relating to our investments, including the possible perception by securities analysts
or investors that such investments divert management attention from our core operations; | |
| 
| 
| 
Market
volatility; | |
| 
| 
| 
A
negative market reaction to announced acquisitions; | |
| 
| 
| 
Competitive
pressures in each of our divisions; | |
| 
| 
| 
General
conditions in the insurance brokerage and insurance industries; | |
| 
| 
| 
Legal
proceedings or regulatory investigations; | |
| 
| 
| 
Sales
of substantial amounts of common shares by our directors, executive officers or significant stockholders or the perception that such
sales could occur. | |
| 
| 
| 
Stockholder
class action lawsuits may be instituted against us following a period of volatility in our stock price. Any such litigation could
result in substantial cost and a diversion of managements attention and resources. | |
**Possible
issuance of additional securities.**
As
of December 31, 2025, our Articles of Incorporation authorized the issuance of 2,000,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.086 per share. As of December 31, 2025, we had 10,644,124 shares issued
and outstanding. We may be expected to issue additional shares in connection with our pursuit of new business opportunities and new business
operations. To the extent that additional shares of common stock are issued, our shareholders would experience dilution of their respective
ownership interests. If we issue shares of common stock in connection with our intent to pursue new business opportunities, a change
in control of the Company may be expected to occur. The issuance of additional shares of common stock may adversely affect the market
price of our common stock, in the event that an active trading market commences.
**We
could be negatively impacted by cybersecurity attacks.**
We
may use a variety of information technology systems in the ordinary course of business, which are potentially vulnerable to unauthorized
access, computer viruses and cyberattacks, including cyberattacks to our information technology infrastructure and attempts by others
to gain access to our propriety or sensitive information, and ranging from individual attempts to advanced persistent threats. The risk
of such a security breach or disruption has generally increased as the number, intensity and sophistication of attempted attacks and
intrusions from around the world have increased and will likely continue to increase in the future. The procedures and controls we use
to monitor these threats and mitigate our exposure may not be sufficient to prevent cyber security incidents. The results of these incidents
could include disrupted operations, misstated or unreliable financial data, theft of trade secrets or other intellectual property, liability
for disclosure of confidential customer, supplier or employee information, increased costs arising from the implementation of additional
security protective measures, regulatory enforcement litigation and reputational damage, which could materially adversely affect our
financial condition, business and results of operations. These risks require continuous and likely increasing attention and other resources
from us to, among other actions, identify and quantify these risks, upgrade and expand our technologies, systems and processes to adequately
address them and provide periodic training for employees to assist them in detecting phishing, malware and other schemes. Such attention
diverts time and other resources from other activities and there is no assurance that our efforts will be effective. Additionally, the
cost of maintaining and improving such systems and processes, procedures and internal controls may increase from its current level. Potential
sources for disruption, damage or failure of our information technology systems include, without limitation, computer viruses, security
breaches, human error, cyberattacks, natural disasters and defects in design. Additionally, we rely on third party service providers
for certain aspects of our business. We can provide no assurance that the networks and systems that our third party vendors have established
or use will be effective. Even if we are not targeted directly, cyberattacks on the U.S. and foreign governments, financial markets,
financial institutions, or other businesses, including vendors, software creators, cybersecurity service providers, and other third parties
with whom we do business, may occur, and such events could disrupt our normal business operations and networks in the future.
| 21 | |
| | |
**We
are subject to a variety of federal, state, and international laws and other obligations regarding data protection.**
We
are subject to a variety of federal, state, and international laws and other obligations regarding data protection. Several jurisdictions
have passed laws in this area, and other jurisdictions are considering imposing additional restrictions. These laws continue to develop
and may be inconsistent from jurisdiction to jurisdiction. Complying with emerging and changing domestic and international requirements
may cause us or our businesses to incur substantial costs or require us or one of our businesses to change its business practices. Any
failure by us to comply with our own privacy policy, applicable association rules, or with other federal, state or international privacy-related
or data protection laws and regulations could result in proceedings against us by governmental entities or others.
**Dividends
unlikely.**
The
Company does not expect to pay dividends for the foreseeable future. The payment of dividends will be contingent upon the Companys
future revenues and earnings, if any, capital requirements and overall financial conditions. The payment of any future dividends will
be within the discretion of the Companys board of directors as then constituted. It is the Companys expectation that future
management following a business combination will determine to retain any earnings for use in its business operations and accordingly,
the Company does not anticipate declaring any dividends in the foreseeable future.
**Speculative
Nature of Warrants.**
Warrants
offered in our various equity offerings do not confer any rights of common stock ownership on their holders, such as voting rights, and
could limit the rights to receive dividends, they rather merely represent the right to acquire shares of our common stock at a fixed
price for a limited period of time. Moreover, following these offerings, the market value of the warrants is uncertain and there can
be no assurance that the market value of the warrants will equal or exceed their public offering price. There can be no assurance that
the market price of the common stock will ever equal or exceed the exercise price of the warrants, and consequently, whether it will
ever be profitable for holders of the warrants to exercise the warrants.
**State
blue sky registration; potential limitations on resale of the Companys common stock**
The
holders of the Companys shares of common stock registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Securities
Act) and those persons who desire to purchase them in any trading market that may develop in the future, should be aware that
there may be state blue-sky law restrictions upon the ability of investors to resell the Companys securities. Accordingly, investors
should consider the secondary market for the Companys securities to be a limited one.
**Changes
in tax laws could materially affect our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.**
The
tax regimes we are subject to or operate under, including income and non-income taxes, are unsettled and may be subject to significant
change. For example, the Inflation Reduction Act (the IRA) was signed into law on August 16, 2022 and was effective beginning
in fiscal 2023. The IRA imposes a 15% minimum tax for large corporations on global adjusted financial statement income for tax years
beginning after December 31, 2022, and a 1% excise tax on certain share repurchases occurring after December 31, 2022. We do not currently
expect that the IRA will have a material impact on our income tax liability, but will continue to monitor this change in future periods.
We are unable to predict what changes to the tax laws of the U.S. and other jurisdictions may be proposed or enacted in the future or
what effect such changes would have on our business. Any significant increase in our future effective tax rate could have a material
adverse impact on our business, financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.
**Expectations
of our company relating to environmental, social and governance factors may impose additional costs and expose us to new risks.**
There
is an increasing focus from certain investors, customers and other key stakeholders concerning corporate responsibility, specifically
related to environmental, social and governance (ESG) factors. We expect that an increased focus on ESG considerations
will affect some aspects of our operations, particularly as we expand into new geographic markets. There are a number of constituencies
that are involved in a range of ESG issues, including investors, special interest groups, public and consumer interest groups and third-party
service providers. As a result, there is an increased emphasis on corporate responsibility ratings and several third parties provide
reports on companies to measure and assess corporate responsibility performance. In addition, the ESG factors by which companies
corporate responsibility practices are assessed may change, which could result in greater expectations of us and cause us to undertake
costly initiatives to satisfy such new criteria. Alternatively, if we are unable to satisfy such new criteria, investors may conclude
that our policies with respect to corporate responsibility are inadequate. We risk damage to our brand and reputation if our corporate
responsibility procedures or standards do not meet the standards set by various constituencies. In the future, we may be required to
make substantial investments in matters related to ESG which could require significant investment and impact our results of operations.
Any failure in our decision-making or related investments in this regard could affect consumer perceptions as to our brand. Furthermore,
if our competitors corporate responsibility performance is perceived to be greater than ours, potential or current investors may
elect to invest with our competitors instead. In addition, in the event that we communicate certain initiatives and goals regarding ESG
matters, we could fail, or be perceived to fail, in our achievement of such initiatives or goals, or we could be criticized for the scope
of such initiatives or goals. If we fail to satisfy the expectations of investors and other key stakeholders or our initiatives are not
executed as planned, our reputation and financial results could be materially and adversely affected.

Information**

listed on the NASDAQ Capital Market under the symbol EZRAW.
**Holders
of Record**
As
of March 10, 2025, there were approximately 520 holders of record of our ordinary shares, although there is a much larger number of
beneficial owners.
**Dividends**
The
Company has not historically paid regular cash dividends on our Common Stock. On September 26, 2025, our Board of Directors declared
a one-time special cash dividend of $0.03 per share on our outstanding Common Stock, which was paid on December 2, 2025. Other than this
special dividend, we do not currently expect to pay dividends for the foreseeable future. We anticipate that we will
retain funds and future earnings to support operations and to finance the growth and development of our business. The payment of dividends
will be contingent upon the Companys future revenues and earnings, if any, capital requirements, overall financial condition,
and other factors that our board of directors deems relevant. The payment of any future dividends will be within the discretion of the
Companys board of directors as then constituted. It is the Companys expectation that future management following a business
combination will determine to retain any earnings for use in its business operations and accordingly, the Company does not anticipate
declaring any dividends in the foreseeable future.

Plan, 2024 Omnibus Incentive Plan and the 2025 Equity Incentive Plan (collectively, the Plans). The purpose of the Plans
is to provide a means through which the Company and its subsidiaries may attract and retain key personnel, and to provide a means whereby
directors, officer, employees, consultants, and advisors of the Company and its subsidiaries can acquire and maintain an equity interest
in the Company, or be paid incentive compensation, thereby strengthening their commitment to the welfare of the Company and its subsidiaries
and aligning their interests with those of the Companys stockholders. The Plans provide for various stock-based incentive awards,
including incentive and non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights (SARs), restricted stock and restricted
stock units (RSUs), and other equity-based or cash-based awards. The Plans each, respectively, terminate 10 years after
each becoming effective, unless terminated earlier by the Board of Directors.
A
total of 3,167,451 shares of Common Stock were reserved for issuance under the Plans, and as of December 31, 2025 there remain 118,503

7. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations**
**Overview**
Reliance
Global Group, Inc. operates as a holding company that acquires, owns, and actively manages insurance distribution and technology-oriented
businesses. Historically, the Companys primary operations have consisted of the ownership and operation of wholesale and retail
insurance agencies and related InsurTech platforms, including RELI Exchange and 5MinuteInsure.com.
During
2025, the Company undertook a series of portfolio and capital structure initiatives, including the sale of certain insurance brokerage
assets, repayment of a significant portion of its outstanding indebtedness, and access to additional equity capital through committed
facilities and public offerings. These actions were intended to streamline operations, strengthen the balance sheet, and support future
growth initiatives.
In
January 2026, the Company launched EZRA International Group and introduced its Scale51 structured acquisition model, under which the
Company may pursue majority ownership positions in technology-driven businesses. The Company intends to continue operating its insurance
platform as its foundational cash flow base while selectively evaluating expansion opportunities consistent with its holding company
framework.
The
following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the Companys consolidated financial statements and related
notes included elsewhere in this Annual Report.
**Recent
Developments**
**Strategic
Investment Initiatives**
****
In
January 2026, the Company launched EZRA International Group and introduced its Scale51 operating model, under which the Company intends
to pursue majority ownership positions in technology-driven businesses while continuing to operate its insurance brokerage and InsurTech
platforms as its operational base.
On
February 23, 2026, the Company completed the initial closing of its investment in Enquantum Ltd., a cybersecurity company developing
post-quantum encryption and next-generation data protection technologies, acquiring approximately 8% of Enquantums issued and
outstanding share capital on a fully diluted basis. The Share Purchase Agreement provides for additional milestone-based tranche investments
that, if completed, would increase the Companys ownership to 51%. Future funding of these milestone tranches will require additional
capital deployment by the Company. The timing and magnitude of such future investments remain subject to milestone achievement or waiver
and the Companys capital allocation decisions. The Company continues to evaluate additional potential investments consistent with
its holding company strategy; however, there can be no assurance that any additional transactions will be completed.

**Digital
Asset Treasury Strategy**
****
In
September 2025, the Company adopted a digital asset treasury strategy pursuant to which it may allocate a portion of its treasury assets
to cryptocurrencies and related blockchain initiatives. As of December 31, 2025, the Company held digital assets reflected on its consolidated
balance sheet. Digital asset holdings are subject to market price volatility, which may impact future results of operations. The Company
evaluates digital asset allocations alongside other capital deployment opportunities, including operating investments and strategic acquisitions.
**Portfolio
Realignment and Debt Reduction**
****
During
2025, the Company completed the sale of certain insurance brokerage assets, including the Fortman Insurance Services business and the
Employee Benefits Solutions (EBS) and US Benefits Alliance (USBA) businesses. Aggregate proceeds from these
transactions were used in part to reduce outstanding indebtedness. In July 2025, the Company repaid approximately $5.0 million of its
Oak Street long-term debt and subsequently made an additional repayment following the EBS and USBA asset sale. These actions reduced
the Companys leverage and ongoing interest expense entering 2026.
**Termination
of Spetner Acquisition**
In
July 2025, the previously announced Stock Exchange Agreement relating to the proposed acquisition of Spetner Associates, Inc. was terminated.
In connection with the termination, the Company expensed previously issued non-refundable equity prepayments associated with the contemplated
transaction. The Company has no ongoing obligations under the terminated agreement.
**Capital
Markets Activity**
****
In
August 2025, the Company entered into an At-the-Market (ATM) Sales Agreement under which it may offer and sell shares of
its common stock from time to time pursuant to an effective shelf registration statement, subject to regulatory limitations and market
conditions. During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company generated approximately $2.2 million in net proceeds from sales under
the ATM program.
Also
in August 2025, the Company entered into a Common Stock Purchase Agreement with White Lion Capital, LLC providing access to up to $10.0
million of capital through an equity line of credit facility, subject to specified limitations and conditions. As of December 31, 2025,
capacity remained available under the facility.
Subsequent
to year-end, on January 29, 2026, the Company completed a public offering generating gross proceeds of approximately $2.0 million before
offering expenses. The Company intends to use the net proceeds for working capital, strategic initiatives, and general corporate purposes.
****
**Nasdaq
Minimum Bid Price Notice**
****
On
December 12, 2025, the Company received a notification from The Nasdaq Stock Market indicating that the closing bid price of its common
stock had been below the minimum $1.00 per share requirement for continued listing under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) for 30 consecutive
business days. The notice has no immediate effect on the listing of the Companys common stock. The Company has 180 calendar days
to regain compliance. If at any time during this period the closing bid price of the Companys common stock is at least $1.00 per
share for a minimum of ten consecutive business days, Nasdaq will provide written confirmation of compliance. If the Company does not
regain compliance within the initial 180-day period, but meets the continued listing requirement for market value of publicly held shares
and all other applicable initial listing standards for The Nasdaq Capital Market (other than the minimum bid price requirement), and
provides written notice of its intention to cure the deficiency during a second compliance period, including, if necessary, by effecting
a reverse stock split, the Company may be eligible for an additional 180 calendar day compliance period. There can be no assurance that
the Company will regain compliance within the applicable compliance period.

**Non-GAAP
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. Namely our key financial performance metric Adjusted EBITDA (AEBITDA)
is a non-GAAP financial measure that is not in accordance with, or an alternative to, measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. AEBITDA
is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) with additional adjustments as further outlined
below, to result in Adjusted EBITDA (AEBITDA). The Company considers AEBITDA an important financial metric because it provides
a meaningful financial measure of the quality of the Companys 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 Companys 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 Annual Report on Form 10-K under Results of Operations.
We
exclude the following items, 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 Companys core operational performance. | |
| 
| 
| 
Depreciation
and amortization: Non-cash charge, excluded to provide more meaningful supplemental information regarding the Companys core
operational performance. | |
| 
| 
| 
Goodwill
and/or asset impairment: Non-cash charge, excluded to provide more meaningful supplemental information regarding the Companys
core operational performance. | |
| 
| 
| 
Equity-based
compensation: Non-cash compensation provided to employees, directors and third parties, excluded to provide more meaningful supplemental
information regarding the Companys core cash impacted operational performance. | |
| 
| 
| 
Change
in estimated acquisition earn-out payables: An Earn-out liability is a liability to the seller upon an acquisition which is contingent
on future earnings. These liabilities are valued at each reporting period and the changes are reported as either a gain or loss in
the change in estimated acquisition earn-out payables account in the consolidated statements of operations. The gain or loss is non-cash,
can be highly volatile and overall is not deemed relevant to ongoing operations, thus, its excluded to provide more meaningful
supplemental information regarding the Companys core operational performance. | |
| 
| 
| 
Recognition
and change in fair value of warrant liabilities: This account includes changes to derivative warrant liabilities which are valued
at each reporting period and could result in either a gain or loss. The period changes do not impact cash, can be highly volatile,
and are unrelated to ongoing operations, and thus are excluded to provide more meaningful supplemental information regarding the
Companys core operational performance. | |
| 
| 
| 
Other
(income) expense, net: This account includes non-routine and/or non-core operating income or expenses and other individually de minimis items
and these amounts are excluded as unrelated to core operations of the company. | |
| 
| 
| 
Gain on sale: This account includes gains on sale from certain agency divestitures
that occurred in the period which are unrelated to primary Company operations and are excluded to provide more meaningful supplemental
information regarding the Companys core operational performance. | |
| 
| 
| 
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 Companys core operational performance. | |
| 
| 
| 
Non-standard
costs: This account includes non-standard non-operational items, related to costs incurred for a legal suit the Company has filed
against one of the third parties involved in the previously disclosed discontinued operations and is excluded to provide more
meaningful supplemental information regarding the Companys core operational performance. | |
| 
| 
| 
Unrealized and realized gains (losses) on digital assets,
net: This account includes unrealized and realized gains and losses from digital assets and is thus excluded to provide more meaningful supplemental information regarding the Companys
core operational performance. | |

**Critical
Accounting Policies and Estimates**
The
preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and judgments
that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses, and related disclosures. Estimates and judgments are based
on historical experience, forecasted events, and various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances.
Estimates and judgments may vary under different assumptions or conditions. We evaluate our estimates and judgments on an ongoing basis.
Our management believes the accounting policies below are critical in the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations
and require managements most difficult, subjective, or complex judgments.
**Business
acquisitions:** Accounting for acquisitions requires us to estimate the fair value of consideration paid and the individual assets
and liabilities acquired, which involves a number of judgments, assumptions, and estimates that could materially affect the amount and
timing of costs recognized in subsequent periods. Accounting for acquisitions can also involve significant judgment to determine when
control of the acquired entity is transferred. We typically obtain independent third-party valuation studies to assist in determining
fair values, including assistance in determining future cash flows, discount rates, and comparable market values. Items involving significant
assumptions, estimates, and judgments include the following:
| 
| 
| 
Debt,
including discount rate and timing of payments; | |
| 
| 
| 
Deferred
tax assets, including projections of future taxable income and tax rates; | |
| 
| 
| 
Fair
value of consideration paid or transferred; | |
| 
| 
| 
Intangible
assets, including valuation methodology, estimations of future revenue and costs, and discount rates; | |
**Contingencies:**We are subject to the possibility of losses from various contingencies. Significant judgment is necessary to estimate the probability
and amount of a loss, if any, from such contingencies. An accrual is made when it is probable that a liability has been incurred or an
asset has been impaired, and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. In accounting for the resolution of contingencies, significant
judgment may be necessary to estimate amounts pertaining to periods prior to the resolution that are charged to operations in the period
of resolution and amounts related to future periods.
**Goodwill
and intangible assets:** We test goodwill for impairment in our fourth quarter each year, or more frequently if indicators of an
impairment exist, to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit with goodwill is less than
its carrying value. For reporting units for which this assessment concludes that it is more likely than not that the fair value is more
than its carrying value, goodwill is considered not impaired and we are not required to perform the goodwill impairment test. Qualitative
factors considered in this assessment include industry and market considerations, overall financial performance, and other relevant events
and factors affecting the fair value of the reporting unit. For reporting units for which this assessment concludes that it is more likely
than not that the fair value is below the carrying value, goodwill is tested for impairment by determining the fair value of each reporting
unit and comparing it to the carrying value of the net assets assigned to the reporting unit. If the fair value of the reporting unit
exceeds its carrying value, goodwill is considered not impaired. If the carrying value of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value,
we would record an impairment loss up to the difference between the carrying value and implied fair value.
| 32 | |
| | |
Determining
when to test for impairment, the reporting units, the assets and liabilities of the reporting unit, and the fair value of the reporting
unit requires significant judgment and involves the use of significant estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions include
revenue growth rates, and expenses and are developed as part of our long-range planning process. The same estimates are used in business
planning, forecasting, and capital budgeting. We test the reasonableness of the output of our long-range planning process by calculating
an implied value per share and comparing that to current stock prices, analysts consensus pricing, and managements expectations.
These estimates and assumptions are used to calculate projected future cash flows for the reporting unit, which are discounted using
a risk-adjusted rate to estimate a fair value. The discount rate requires determination of appropriate market comparables. We base fair
value estimates on assumptions we believe to be reasonable but that are unpredictable and inherently uncertain. Actual future results
may differ from those estimates.
We
test other identified intangible assets with definite useful lives when events and circumstances indicate the carrying value may not
be recoverable by comparing the carrying amount to the sum of undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. We test
intangible assets with indefinite lives annually for impairment using a fair value method such as discounted cash flows. Estimating fair
values involves significant assumptions, including future sales prices, sales volumes, costs, and discount rates.
**Income
taxes:** We are required to estimate our provision for income taxes and amounts ultimately payable or recoverable in numerous tax
jurisdictions around the world. These estimates involve significant judgment and interpretations of regulations and are inherently complex.
Resolution of income tax treatments in individual jurisdictions may not be known for many years after completion of the applicable year.
We are also required to evaluate the realizability of our deferred tax assets on an ongoing basis in accordance with U.S. GAAP, which
requires the assessment of our performance and other relevant factors. Realization of deferred tax assets is dependent on our ability
to generate future taxable income. In recent periods, our results of operations have benefited from increases in the amount of deferred
taxes we expect to realize, primarily from the levels of capital spending and increases in the amount of taxable income we expect to
realize. Our income tax provision or benefit is dependent, in part, on our ability to forecast future taxable income in these and other
jurisdictions. Such forecasts are inherently difficult and involve significant judgments including, among others, projecting future average
selling prices and sales volumes, manufacturing and overhead costs, levels of capital spending, and other factors that significantly
impact our analyses of the amount of net deferred tax assets that are more likely than not to be realized.
**Revenue
recognition:**The Companys revenue is primarily comprised of commission paid by health insurance carriers related to
insurance plans that have been purchased by a member who used the Companys service. The Company defines a member as an
individual currently covered by an insurance plan, including individual and family, Medicare-related, small business, and ancillary
plans, for which the Company is entitled to receive compensation from an insurance carrier. All commission revenue is recorded net
of any deductions for estimated commission adjustments due to lapses, policy cancellations, and revisions in coverage.
The
Company earns additional revenue including contingent commissions, profit-sharing, override and bonuses based on meeting certain revenue
or profit targets established periodically by the carriers (collectively, the Contingent Commissions). The Contingent Commissions
are earned when the Company achieves the targets established by the insurance carriers. The insurance carriers notify the company when
it has achieved the target. The Company only recognizes revenue to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal of the
revenue will not occur.
**Equity-based
compensation:** Equity-based compensation is estimated at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is recognized
as expense using the straight-line amortization method over the requisite service period. For performance-based stock awards, the expense
recognized is dependent on our assessment of the likelihood of the performance measure being achieved. We utilize forecasts of future
performance to assess these probabilities and this assessment requires significant judgment.
Determining
the appropriate fair-value model and calculating the fair value of stock-based awards at the grant date requires significant judgment,
including estimating stock price volatility and expected option life. We develop these estimates based on historical data and market
information which can change significantly over time. A small change in the estimates used can result in a relatively large change in
the estimated valuation. We use the Black-Scholes option valuation model to value employee stock options and awards granted under our
employee stock purchase plan. We estimate stock price volatility based on our historical volatility implied volatility derived from traded
options on our stock.

**Item
9A. Controls and Procedures**
**Evaluation
of Disclosure Controls and Procedures**
Disclosure
controls are procedures that are designed with the objective of ensuring that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed
under the Exchange Act, such as this annual report, is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time period specified
in the SECs rules and forms. Disclosure controls are also designed with the objective of ensuring that such information is accumulated
and communicated to our management, including the chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely
decisions regarding required disclosure.
We
do not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all errors and all instances of fraud. Disclosure controls and
procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the
disclosure controls and procedures are met. Further, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there
are resource constraints, and the benefits must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all disclosure
controls and procedures, no evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures can provide absolute assurance that we have detected all
our control deficiencies and instances of fraud, if any. The design of disclosure controls and procedures also is based partly on certain
assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated
goals under all potential future conditions.
As
of December 31, 2025, we conducted an evaluation, under supervision and with the participation of management, including the chief executive
officer and chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant
to Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 of the Exchange Act. Based upon that evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded
that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at a reasonable assurance level as of December 31, 2025.
**Managements
Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting**
Our
management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined under Exchange
Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 14d-14(f). Our internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding
the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles.
All
internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations and may not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore,
even those systems determined to be effective can only provide reasonable assurance with respect to financial reporting reliability and
financial statement preparation and presentation. In addition, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject
to risk that controls become inadequate because of changes in conditions and that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures
may deteriorate.
Management
assessed the effectiveness of the Companys internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025. In making the assessment,
management used the criteria issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO 2013) in Internal
Control-Integrated Framework. Based on its assessment, management concluded that, as of December 31, 2025, our Companys internal
control over financial reporting was effective.
**Changes
in Internal Control over Financial Reporting**
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial
reporting, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act, during our most recently completed fiscal
quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Shareholders
and Board of Directors
Reliance
Global Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Lakewood,
New Jersey
**Opinion
on the Consolidated Financial Statements**
****
We
have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Reliance Global Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries (the Company)
as of December 31, 2025, and 2024, the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders equity (deficit), and cash
flows for each of the two years ended December 31, 2025, and 2024, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the consolidated
financial statements). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial
position of the Company at December 31, 2025, and 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years
ended December 31, 2025 and 2024**,** in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
**Basis
for Opinion**
****
These
consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Companys management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion
on the Companys consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public
Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance
with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We
conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud.
The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part
of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing
an opinion on the effectiveness of the Companys internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our
audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether
due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence
regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles
used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
**Critical
Audit Matters**
**
The
critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements
that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are
material to the consolidated financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The
communication of the critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as
a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matters
or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.

**Impairment
Evaluation of Goodwill and Long-Lived Assets**
****
**C**ritical
Audit Matter Description
As
described in Notes 5 to the consolidated financial statements, the Companys consolidated goodwill and intangible assets balances
were $4,786,555 and 6,693,099, and $3,387,980 and $5,423,897
respectively, as of December 31, 2025, and 2024. Management tests goodwill and intangible assets
for impairment at least annually, or more frequently should an event or a change in circumstances occur that would indicate the carrying
value may be impaired. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, an impairment is recorded equal to the amount
by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value, up to the amount of goodwill and intangible assets associated with the reporting
unit. As a result of managements assessment, the Company did not recognize an impairment charge to goodwill but did recognize
an impairment to intangible assets of $0 and $3,922,110 during the years ended December 31, 2025, and 2024.
The
principal considerations for our determination that the goodwill and intangible asset impairment assessment was a critical audit matter
are that there is significant judgment in selection of the valuation methods to use, along with assumptions used to estimate the future
revenues and cash flows, including revenue growth rates, operating expenses and cash outflows necessary to support the cash flows, weighted
average cost of capital and future market conditions as well as the valuation methodologies applied by the Company. This in turn led
to a high degree of auditor judgment, subjectivity and effort in performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence related to managements
inputs and selection of methods used. In addition, the audit effort involved the use of auditor employed professionals with specialized
skill and knowledge to assist in performing these procedures and evaluating the audit evidence obtained.
How
the Critical Matter Was Addressed in the Audit
The
primary audit procedures to address this critical audit matter included:
| 
| 
Obtained
an understanding over the Companys process for evaluating whether an event of a change in circumstances has occurred and would
indicate the carrying value of goodwill and intangible assets may be impaired. | |
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
Utilizing
a firm employed valuation specialist with the skills and knowledge to assist in evaluating the reasonableness of the valuation methods
selected by management to determine the fair value of the Company, evaluating managements significant assumptions by comparing
inputs to market data, and performing a control premium sensitivity study to determine the impact to the market participant acquisition
approach, and performing recalculations of the method utilized by management. | |
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
Testing
the completeness and accuracy of the underlying data utilized by management in their evaluation of goodwill and intangible assets
impairment. | |

**Valuation
of Crypto Assets Held on the Balance Sheet**
**C**ritical
Audit Matter Description
As
described in Notes 2 and 6 to the consolidated financial statements, the Board of Directors approved
the adoption of a digital asset treasury strategy and a digital asset treasury policy. Under this strategy and policy, the Company may
allocate a portion of its treasury funds to acquire cryptocurrencies. The Company accounts and presents its digital assets in accordance
with ASU 2023-08, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Crypto Assets (Subtopic 350-60), with initial measurement at cost plus transaction fees
directly attributable to each acquisition, and the Company continues to track cost basis using the specific-identification method. At
each reporting date, the Company remeasures its digital assets at fair value, determined under ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement, based
on quoted (unadjusted) prices on the Coinbase exchange, the active exchange that the Company has determined is its principal market for
its digital assets (Level 1 inputs), with changes recognized in unrealized gains (losses) on digital assets, net, in the consolidated
statements of operations
The
principal considerations for our determination of the valuation of crypto assets that are held on the balance sheet are a critical audit
matter include the complexity of the digital ecosystem, digital assets exhibit extreme price volatility, fragmented pricing across exchanges,
and an absence of centralized valuation sources. Auditors must determine whether managements valuation approach is reasonable,
which often involves especially challenging and subjective judgment.
How
the Critical Matter Was Addressed in the Audit
The
primary audit procedures to address this critical audit matter included:
| 
| Obtained
an understanding over the Companys process and controls for evaluating the significant
estimate in the fair valuation of crypto assets and related fair market valuation gains or
losses. | |
| 
| Utilizing
an independent third-party pricing service, repriced the crypto assets held at December 31,
2025 and selected transactions. | |
| 
| Confirmed
the crypto assets held at December 31, 2025 with the Companys third-party custodian
noting the custodian is a reputable digital asset platform. | |
| 
| Obtained
an inspected third-party custodian SOC 1, Type 2 certification. | |

**Reliance
Global Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries**
**Notes
to the Consolidated Financial Statements**
**NOTE
1. ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS**
Reliance
Global Group, Inc. (formerly known as Ethos Media Network, Inc.) (RELI, EZRA Reliance, or the
Company) was incorporated in Florida on August 2, 2013, and is a holding company that acquires, owns and operates insurance
agencies throughout the United States and is a pioneer in the Insurtech space.
**NOTE
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES**
**Basis
of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation**
The
accompanying consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by the Company in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the
accounting of Reliance Global Group, Inc., and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated
in consolidation. Reliance operates as a single operating segment.
**Liquidity**
As
of December 31, 2025, the Companys reported cash and restricted cash aggregated balance was approximately $2,731,000, current
assets were approximately $4,272,000, while current liabilities were approximately 2,397,000. As of December 31, 2025, the Company had
working capital of approximately $1,875,000 and stockholders equity of approximately $6,427,000. For the year ended December 31,
2025, the Company reported a loss from operations of approximately $9,013,000. The Company also reported other expense, which includes
interest expense of approximately $1,043,000, offset by a gain on sale of approximately $3,183,000 and resulted in a net loss of $6,987,756.
Although
there can be no assurance that debt or equity financing will be available on acceptable terms, the Company believes its financial position
and its ability to raise capital to be reasonable and sufficient. Based on our assessment, we do not believe there are conditions or
events that, in the aggregate, raise substantial doubt about the Companys ability to continue as a going concern within one year
of filing these financial statements with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
**Use
of Estimates**
The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Management
bases its estimates on historical experience and on assumptions believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could
differ materially from those estimates.
**Cash
and Restricted Cash**
Cash
consists of checking accounts. The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less
to be cash equivalents.
Restricted
cash includes cash pledged as collateral to secure obligations and/or all cash whose use is otherwise limited by contractual provisions.
At
times, some cash balances held in banks may exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, or FDIC, standard deposit insurance limit
of $250,000.

**Property
and Equipment**
Property
and equipment is stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is recognized over an assets estimated useful life
using the straight-line method beginning on the date an asset is placed in service. The Company regularly evaluates the estimated remaining
useful lives of the Companys property and equipment to determine whether events or changes in circumstances warrant a revision
to the remaining period of depreciation. Certain capitalized software has been reclassified in the consolidated balance sheet from property
and equipment, net to intangibles, net and comparative periods have been adjusted accordingly. Maintenance and repairs are charged to
expense as incurred. Estimated useful lives of the Companys Property and Equipment are as follows:

**Fair
Value of Financial Instruments**
Fair
value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between
market participants at the measurement date. The accounting guidance includes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation
techniques used to measure fair value. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:
Level
1 Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets and liabilities;
Level
2 Inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities that are observable either directly
or indirectly for substantially the full term of the asset or liability; and
Level
3 Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, which include managements own assumption about the assumptions market
participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk.
As
of December 31, 2025, and 2024 respectively, the Companys balance sheet includes certain financial instruments, including cash,
accounts payable, and short and long-term debt. The carrying amounts of current assets and current liabilities approximate their fair
value because of the relatively short period of time between the origination of these instruments and their expected realization. The
carrying amounts of long-term debt approximate their fair value as the variable interest rates are based on a market index.
**Warrant
Liabilities:** The Companys warrant liabilities (see Note 9, *Warrant Liabilities*) represent liability-classified derivative
financial instruments recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. The fair value of the Warrant Liabilities includes significant inputs
unobservable in the market and thus are considered Level 3. The Company measures fair value of its material warrant liabilities at issuance,
and subsequently at each balance sheet date, using a binomial option pricing model. As of December 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024, the
Company did not have any material Warrant Liabilities.
**Earn-out
liabilities:** The Company utilizes two valuation methods to value its material Level 3 earn-out liabilities, (a) the income valuation
approach, and (b) the Monte Carlo simulation method. Key valuation and unobservable inputs for the income valuation approach include
contingent payment arrangement terms, projected revenues and cash flows, rates of return, discount rates and probability assessments.
The Monte Carlo simulation method includes key valuation and unobservable inputs such as, but not limited to, WACC, Volatility, Credit
spread, discount rates and stock price.

**Deferred
Financing Costs**
The
Company has recorded deferred financing costs because of fees incurred by the Company in conjunction with its debt financing activities.
These costs are amortized to interest expense using the straight-line method which approximates the interest rate method over the term
of the related debt. As of December 31, 2025, and 2024, unamortized deferred financing costs were $133,909 and $233,900, respectively
and are netted against the related debt.
**Business
Combinations**
The
Company accounts for its business combinations using the acquisition method of accounting. Under the acquisition method, assets acquired,
liabilities assumed, and consideration transferred are recorded at the date of acquisition at their respective fair values. Definite-lived
intangible assets are amortized over the expected life of the asset. Any excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair values
of the net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill.
Goodwill
represents the excess purchase price over the fair value of the tangible net assets and intangible assets acquired in a business combination.
Acquisition-related expenses are recognized separately from business combinations and are expensed as incurred. If the business combination
provides for contingent consideration such as earn-outs, the Company records the contingent consideration at fair value at the acquisition
date. The Company remeasures fair value as of each reporting date and changes resulting from events after the acquisition date, are recognized
as follows: 1) if the contingent consideration is classified as equity, the contingent consideration is not re-measured and its subsequent
settlement is accounted for within equity, or 2) if the contingent consideration is classified as a liability, the changes in fair value
and accretion costs are recognized in earnings.
**Identifiable
Intangible Assets, net**
Finite-lived
intangible assets such as customer relationships assets, trademarks and tradenames are amortized over their estimated useful lives, generally
on a straight-line basis for periods ranging from 3 to 20 years. Finite-lived intangible assets are reviewed for impairment or obsolescence
whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of intangible
assets is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of the asset to the future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated
by that asset. If the asset is considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying
amount of the asset exceeds the estimated fair value.
**Goodwill
and other indefinite-lived intangibles**
The
Company records goodwill when the purchase price of a business acquisition exceeds the estimated fair value of net identified tangible
and intangible assets acquired. Goodwill is assigned on the acquisition date and tested for impairment at least annually, or more frequently
when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the fair value of a reporting unit has more likely than not declined below its
carrying value. Similarly, indefinite-lived intangible assets (if any) other than goodwill are tested annually or more frequently if
indicated, for impairment. If impaired, intangible assets are written down to fair value based on the expected discounted cash flows.
| F-11 | |
****
**Financial
Instruments**
The
Company evaluates issued financial instruments for classification as either equity or liability based on an assessment of the financial
instruments specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (ASC
480) and ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (ASC 815) as well as in accordance with ASU 2020-06. The assessment considers
whether the financial instruments issued are freestanding pursuant to ASC 480, meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480,
and, if applicable whether the financial instruments meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including
whether the financial instruments are indexed to the Companys own Common Stock, among other conditions for equity classification.
This assessment, which requires the use of professional judgment, is conducted at the time of issuance and as of each subsequent reporting
period end date while the financial instruments are outstanding. Financial instruments that are determined to be liabilities under ASC
480 or ASC 815 are held at their initial fair value and remeasured to fair value at each subsequent reporting date, with changes in fair
value recorded as a non-operating, non-cash loss or gain, as applicable.
The
Companys financial instruments consist of derivatives related to the warrants issued with the securities purchase agreement as
discussed in Note 9, *Warrant Liabilities*. The accounting treatment of derivative financial instruments requires that we record
the derivatives at their fair values as of the inception date of the debt agreements and at fair value as of each subsequent balance
sheet date. Any change in fair value is recorded as non-operating, non-cash income or expense at each balance sheet date. Upon the determination
that an instrument is no longer subject to derivative accounting, the fair value of the derivative instrument at the date of such determination
will be reclassified to paid in capital.
The
adoption of ASC Topic 326, *Financial InstrumentsCredit Losses*, did not have a material impact on the Companys consolidated
financial statements. The Company evaluates trade receivables for expected credit losses by considering all available relevant information,
including customers financial condition, credit standing, historical collection experience, and current and reasonable and supportable
forecasts of economic conditions. Based on this evaluation, no allowance for expected credit losses was recorded as of December 31, 2025
or December 31, 2024.
**Revenue
Recognition**
The
Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 606 *Revenue from Contracts with Customers*
which at its core, recognizes revenue upon the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration
the entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services.
The
Companys revenue is primarily comprised of agency commissions earned from insurance carriers (the Customer or Carrier)
related to insurance plans produced through brokering, producing, and servicing agreements between insurance carriers and members. The
Company defines a Member as an individual, family or entity currently covered or seeking insurance coverage.
The
Company focuses primarily on agency services for insurance products in the Healthcare and property and casualty, which
includes auto (collectively P&C) space, with nominal activity in the life insurance and bond sectors. Healthcare includes
plans for individuals and families, Medicare supplements, ancillary and small businesses. The Company also earns revenue in the Insurance
Marketing space as discussed further below.
Consideration
for all agency services typically is based on commissions calculated by applying contractual commission rates to policy premiums. For
P&C, commission rates are applied to premiums due, whereas for healthcare, commission rates, including override commissions, are
applied to monthly premiums received by the Carrier.
The
Company has two forms of billing practices, Direct Bill and Agency Bill. With Direct Bill, Carriers bill
and collect policy premium payments directly from Members without any involvement from the Company. Commissions are paid to the Company
by the Carrier in the following month. With Agency Bill, the Company bills Members premiums due and remits them to Carriers net of commission
earned.
| F-12 | |
The
following outlines the core principles of ASC 606:
**
*Identification
of the contract, or contracts, with a customer*. A contract with a customer exists when (i) we enter into an enforceable contract
with a customer that defines each partys rights regarding the goods or services to be transferred and identifies the payment terms
related to these goods or services, (ii) the contract has commercial substance, and (iii) we determine that collection of substantially
all consideration for goods or services that are transferred is probable based on the customers intent and ability to pay the
promised consideration.
*Identification
of the performance obligations in the contract*. Performance obligations promised in a contract are identified based on the goods
or services that will be transferred to the customer that are both capable of being distinct, whereby the customer can benefit from the
goods or service either on its own or together with other resources that are readily available from third parties or from us, and are
distinct in the context of the contract, whereby the transfer of the goods or services is separately identifiable from other promises
in the contract.
*Determination
of the transaction price*. The transaction price is determined based on the consideration to which we will be entitled in exchange
for transferring goods or services to the customer.
*Allocation
of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract*. If the contract contains a single performance obligation,
the entire transaction price is allocated to the single performance obligation. Contracts that contain multiple performance obligations
require an allocation of the transaction price to each performance obligation based on a relative standalone selling price basis.
*Recognition
of revenue when, or as, the Company satisfies a performance obligation*. The Company satisfies performance obligations either over
time or at a point in time, as discussed in further detail below. Revenue is recognized at the time the related performance obligation
is satisfied by transferring the promised good or service to the customer.
Healthcare
revenue recognition:
The
Company identifies a contract when it has a binding agreement with a Carrier, the Customer, to provide agency services to Members.
There
typically is one performance obligation in contracts with Carriers, to perform agency services that culminate in monthly premium cash
collections by the Carrier. The performance obligation is satisfied through a combination of agency services including, marketing carriers
insurance plans, soliciting Member applications, binding, executing and servicing insurance policies on a continuous basis throughout
a policys life cycle which includes and culminates with the Customers collection of monthly premiums. No commission is
earned if cash is not received by Carrier. Thus, commission revenue is earned only after a months cash receipts from Members
dues is received by the Customer. Each months Carrier cash collections is considered a separate unit sold and transferred to the
Customer i.e., the satisfaction of that months performance obligation.
Transaction
price is typically stated in a contract and usually based on a commission rate applied to Member premiums paid and received by Carrier.
The Company generally continues to receive commission payments from Carriers until a Members plan is cancelled or the Company
terminates its agency agreement with the Carrier. Upon termination, the Company normally will no longer receive any commissions from
Carriers even on business still in place. In some instances, trailing commissions could occur which would be recognized similar to other
Healthcare revenue. With one performance obligation, allocation of transaction price is normally not necessary.
Healthcare
typically utilizes the Direct Bill method.
The
Company recognizes revenue at a point in time when it satisfies its monthly performance obligation and control of the service transfers
to the Customer. Transfer occurs when Member insurance premium cash payments are received by the Customer. The Customers receipt
of cash is the culmination and complete satisfaction of the Companys performance obligation, and the earnings process is complete.
| F-13 | |
With
Direct Bill, since the amount of monthly Customer cash receipts is unknown to the Company until the following month when notice is provided
by Customer to Company, the Company accrues revenue at each period end. Any estimated revenue accrued and recognized at a period-end
is trued up for financial reporting per actual revenue earned as provided by the Customer during the following month.
P&C
revenue recognition:
The
Company identifies a contract when it has a binding agreement with a Carrier, the Customer, to provide agency services to Members.
There
typically is one performance obligation in contracts with Customers, to perform agency services to solicit, receive proposals and bind
insurance policies culminating with policy placement. Commission revenue is earned at the time of policy placement.
Transaction
price is typically stated in a contract and usually based on commission rates applied to Member premiums due. With one performance obligation,
allocation of transaction price is normally not necessary.
P&C
utilizes both the Agency Bill and Direct Bill methods, depending on the Carrier.
The
Company recognizes revenue at a point in time when it satisfies its performance obligation and control of the service transfers to the
Customer. Transfer occurs when the policy placement process is complete.
With
both Direct Bill and Agency Bill, the Company accrues commission revenue in the period policies are placed. With Agency Bill, payment
is typically received from Members in the month earned, however with Direct Bill, payment is typically received from Carriers in the
month subsequent to the commissions being earned.
Other
revenue policies: Insurance commissions earned from Carriers for life insurance products are recorded gross of amounts due to agents,
with a corresponding commission expense for downstream agent commissions being recorded as commission expense within the consolidated
statements of operations.
When
applicable, commission revenue is recognized net of any deductions for estimated commission adjustments due to lapses, policy cancellations,
and revisions in coverage.
The
Company could earn additional revenue from contingent commissions, profit-sharing, override and bonuses based on meeting certain revenue
or profit targets established periodically by the Carriers (collectively, Contingent Commissions). Contingent Commissions
are earned when the Company achieves targets established by Carriers. The Carriers notify the Company when it has achieved the target.
The Company recognizes revenue for any Contingent Commissions at the time it is reasonably assured that a significant revenue reversal
is not probable, which is generally when a Carrier notifies the Company that it is on track or has earned a Contingent Commission.
The
following table disaggregates the Companys revenue by line of business, showing commissions earned:

**General
and Administrative**
General
and administrative expenses primarily consist of personnel costs for the Companys administrative functions, professional service
fees, office rent, all employee travel expenses, and other general costs.
| F-14 | |
****
**Marketing
and Advertising**
The
Companys direct channel expenses primarily consist of costs for e-mail marketing and newspaper advertisements. The Companys
online advertising channel expense primarily consist of social media ads. Advertising costs for both direct and online channels are expensed
as incurred.
****
**Equity-Based
Compensation**
Equity-based
compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is recognized as an expense on a straight-line
basis over the requisite service or vesting period, based on the terms of the awards. The fair value of the stock-based payments to non-employees
that are fully vested and non-forfeitable as at the grant date is measured and recognized at that date, unless there is a contractual
term for services in which case such compensation would be amortized over the contractual term. To the extent possible, the Company will
estimate and recognize expected forfeitures.
****
**Leases**
The
Company recognizes leases in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification Topic 842, Leases (ASC 842
or ASU 2016-12). This standard provides enhanced transparency and comparability by requiring lessees to record right-of-use
assets and corresponding lease liabilities on the balance sheet for most leases. Expenses associated with leases are recognized as a
single lease expense, generally on a straight-line basis.
The
Company is the lessee in a contract when the Company obtains the right to use an asset. We currently lease real estate and office space
under non-cancelable operating lease agreements. When applicable, consideration in a contract is allocated between lease and non-lease
components. Lease payments are discounted using the implicit discount rate in the lease. If the implicit discount rate for the lease
cannot be readily determined, the Company uses an estimate of its incremental borrowing rate. The Company did not have any contracts
accounted for as finance leases as of December 31, 2025, or 2024. Operating leases are included in the line items right-of-use assets,
current portion of leases payable, and leases payable, less current portion in the consolidated balance sheets. Right-of-use (ROU)
asset represents the Companys right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease obligations represent the Companys
obligations to make lease payments arising from the lease, both of which are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum
lease payments over the lease term at the commencement date. Leases with a lease term of 12 months or less at inception are not recorded
on the consolidated balance sheet and are expensed on a straight-line basis over the lease term in the consolidated statement of operations.
The Company determines a leases term by agreement with lessor and includes lease extension options and variable lease payments
when option and/or variable payments are reasonably certain of being exercised or paid.
**Income
Taxes**
The
Company recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates for the effect of temporary differences between the book
and tax basis of recorded assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance if it is more likely than
not that some portion or all of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. In evaluating its ability to recover deferred tax assets
within the jurisdiction in which they arise, the Company considers all available positive and negative evidence, including the expected
reversals of taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, taxable income available via carryback to prior years, tax
planning strategies, and results of recent operations. The Company assesses the realizability of its deferred tax assets, including scheduling
the reversal of its deferred tax assets and liabilities, to determine the amount of valuation allowance needed. Scheduling the reversal
of deferred tax asset and liability balances requires judgment and estimation. The Company believes the deferred tax liabilities relied
upon as future taxable income in its assessment will reverse in the same period and jurisdiction and are of the same character as the
temporary differences giving rise to the deferred tax assets that will be realized.
| F-15 | |
****
**Seasonality**
A
greater number of the Companys Medicare-related health insurance plans are sold in the fourth quarter during the Medicare annual
enrollment period when Medicare-eligible individuals are permitted to change their Medicare Advantage. The majority of the Companys
individual and family health insurance plans are sold in the annual open enrollment period as defined under the federal Patient Protection
and Affordable Care Act and related amendments in the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act. Individuals and families generally
are not able to purchase individual and family health insurance outside of these open enrollment periods, unless they qualify for a special
enrollment period as a result of certain qualifying events, such as losing employer-sponsored health insurance or moving to another state.
**Dividends**
Cash
dividends are recorded as a liability on the date they are declared by the Board of Directors, which is the date the Company becomes
legally obligated to pay the dividend. Dividends declared but unpaid at a reporting date are included in dividends payable within current
liabilities and charged against retained earnings when the Company has positive retained earnings, or against additional paid in capital
when the Company has a retained deficit, in accordance with ASC 505-20, *Equity Dividends*. When a dividend is declared
to shareholders of record as of a specified future date, any additional shares issued prior to that record date participate in the dividend,
and the dividend payable is adjusted at the record date to reflect the total number of shares entitled to receive payment.
**Digital
Assets**
****
During
the year ended December 31, 2025, the Board of Directors approved the adoption of a digital asset treasury strategy and a digital asset
treasury policy. Under this strategy and policy, the Company may allocate a portion of its treasury funds to acquire cryptocurrencies,
including leading digital assets such as Bitcoin, Ethereum and Solana, and may evaluate opportunities to tokenize insurance-linked assets.
In connection with the policy, the Board approved the formation of a Crypto Advisory Board (the CAB) to manage, oversee
and advise management and the Board on the ongoing development of the Companys digital-asset treasury strategy and related initiatives.
The
Company accounts and presents its digital assets in accordance with ASU 2023-08, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Crypto Assets (Subtopic
350-60), with initial measurement at cost plus transaction fees directly attributable to each acquisition, and the Company continues

value, determined under ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement, based on quoted (unadjusted) prices on the Coinbase exchange, the active exchange
that the Company has determined is its principal market for its digital assets (Level 1 inputs), with changes recognized in unrealized

**Recently
Issued Accounting Pronouncements**
In
November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. ASU 2023-07
expands reportable segment disclosures by requiring disclosure, on an annual and interim basis, of significant segment expenses that
are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker (CODM) and included within each reported measure of segment
profit or loss as well as an amount and description of other segment items. ASU 2023-07 also requires interim disclosures of a reportable
segments profit or loss and assets, disclosure of the title and position of the CODM, and an explanation of how the CODM uses
the reported measure of segment profit or loss in assessing performance and allocating resources. ASU 2023-07 is effective for the Company
for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early
adoption is permitted. The amendments in this update are required to be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the
financial statements. The Company adopted this standard for our fiscal year 2024 annual financial statements and interim financial statements
thereafter and have applied this standard retrospectively for all prior periods presented in the financial statements. See Note 17 
Segment Reporting for further information.
In
December 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2023-08, *Intangibles Goodwill and Other 
Crypto Assets (Subtopic 350-60)*: Accounting for and Disclosure of Crypto Assets. The ASU requires entities to measure certain digital
assets at fair value each reporting period, with changes in fair value recognized in net income, and to provide specific quantitative
and qualitative disclosures regarding such holdings. The Company adopted ASU 2023-08 effective July 1, 2025, using the modified retrospective
transition method. Since the Company did not hold any digital assets prior to adoption, there were no cumulative-effect adjustments to
retained earnings and no retrospective impacts.
| F-16 | |
In
March 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-01, *CompensationStock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope Application of Profits Interest
and Similar Awards* (ASU 2024-01), which clarifies the scope application of profits interest and similar awards by adding
illustrative guidance in ASC 718, *CompensationStock Compensation*. The ASU clarifies how to determine whether profits interest
and similar awards are within the scope of ASC 718 and applies to all reporting entities that account for such awards as compensation
to employees or non-employees. In addition to adding illustrative guidance, the ASU modifies the language in paragraph 718-10-15-3 to
improve clarity and operability. The amendments do not change the intent of the existing guidance. The amendments are effective for fiscal
years beginning after December 15, 2024, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company adopted ASU 2024-01 on January
1, 2025. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Companys consolidated financial statements.
In
March 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, *Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures*, which enhances the
transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures by standardizing categories within the rate reconciliation and requiring
additional disaggregation of income taxes paid and other income tax information. The guidance is effective for the Company for fiscal
years beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company adopted ASU 2023-09 on January 1, 2025 and elected to apply the guidance retrospectively
to all periods presented. Accordingly, prior period disclosures have been conformed to the current year presentation. Because the amendments
impact disclosures only, the adoption did not have an effect on the Companys consolidated financial position, results of operations,
cash flows, or shareholders equity.

**NOTE
9. WARRANT LIABILITIES**
**Series
B Warrants**
On
December 22, 2021, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (SPA) with two institutional investors for the purchase and
sale of (i) warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 38,353 shares of the Companys common stock, par value $0.086 per share
at an exercise price of $ $1,042.95 per share, (ii) an aggregate of 10,474 shares of Common Stock, and (iii) 9,076 shares of the Companys

By

Shares, and Series B Warrants on the Initial Closing Date for a fixed price and exercise price, as applicable. The commitment to issue
Series B Warrants (the Warrant Commitment) represented a derivative financial instrument, other than an outstanding share,

The Company classified the commitment to issue the warrants as a derivative liability because it represents a written option that does
not qualify for equity accounting The Company initially measured the derivative liability at its fair value and subsequently remeasured
the derivative liability, at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in earnings. An option pricing model was utilized to calculate
the fair value of the Warrant Commitment.

Plan, 2024 Omnibus Incentive Plan and the 2025 Equity Incentive Plan (collectively, the Plans). The purpose of the Plans
is to provide a means through which the Company and its subsidiaries may attract and retain key personnel, and to provide a means whereby
directors, officer, employees, consultants, and advisors of the Company and its subsidiaries can acquire and maintain an equity interest
in the Company, or be paid incentive compensation, thereby strengthening their commitment to the welfare of the Company and its subsidiaries
and aligning their interests with those of the Companys stockholders. The Plans provide for various stock-based incentive awards,
including incentive and nonqualified stock options, stock appreciation rights (SARs), restricted stock and restricted stock
units (RSUs), and other equity-based or cash-based awards. The Plans each respectively terminate 10 years after each becoming
effective, unless terminated earlier by the Board of Directors. A total of 3,167,451 shares of Common Stock were reserved for issuance
under the Plans, and as of December 31, 2025 there remain 118,503 shares available for issuance.
**Administration
of the Plans**. The Plans are administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board. The Compensation Committee is authorized
to select from among eligible employees, directors, and service providers those individuals to whom shares and options are to be granted
and to determine the number of shares to be subject to, and the terms and conditions of the options. The Compensation Committee is also
authorized to prescribe, amend, and rescind terms relating to options granted under the Plans. Generally, the interpretation and construction
of any provision of the Plans or any shares and options granted hereunder is within the discretion of the Compensation Committee.
**Stock
Options:** The Plans provide that options may or may not be Incentive Stock Options (ISOs) within the meaning of Section 422 of
the Internal Revenue Code. Only employees of the Company are eligible to receive ISOs, while employees, non-employee directors, consultants,
and service providers are eligible to receive options which are not ISOs, i.e. Non-Statutory Stock Options. The options
granted by the Compensation Committee in connection with its adoption of the Plans were Non-Statutory Stock Options.
The
fair value of each option granted is estimated on the grant date using the Black-Scholes option pricing model or the value of the services
provided, whichever is more readily determinable. The Black-Scholes option pricing model takes into account, as of the grant date, the
exercise price and expected life of the option, the current price of the underlying stock and its expected volatility, expected dividends
on the stock and the risk-free interest rate for the term of the option.

For
the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company estimated the fair value of each stock option on the grant date using a Black-Scholes option-pricing
model. Black-Scholes option-pricing models require the Company to make predictive assumptions regarding future stock price volatility,
recipient exercise behavior, and dividend yield. The Company estimated the future stock price volatility using the historical volatility
over the expected term of the option. The expected term of the options was computed by taking the mid-point between the vesting date
and expiration date. The following assumptions were used in the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, not accounting for the reverse splits:

13. LEASES**
**Operating
Leases**
ASU
2016-02 requires recognition in the statement of operations of a single lease cost, calculated so that the cost of the lease is allocated
over the lease term, generally on a straight-line basis. The standard requires a lessee to record a right-of-use asset and a corresponding
lease liability at the inception of the lease, initially measured at the present value of the lease payments. The Companys leases
consist of operating leases on buildings and office space.
In
accordance with ASU 2016-02, right-of-use assets are amortized over the life of the underlying leases. Lease expense for the years ended
December 31, 2025 and 2024 was $405,622 and $418,458, respectively. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the weighted average remaining
lease term and weighted average discount rates for the operating leases were 3.30 years and 8.82% and 4.95 years and 8.76% respectively.
For
the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of operating lease liabilities was $401,504
and $409,712, respectively.
As
of December 31, 2025, the Company recognized operating lease right-of-use assets of $897,610 and operating lease liabilities of $937,681,
consisting of a current portion of $276,470 and a long-term portion of $661,211. At December 31, 2024, operating lease right-of-use assets
totaled $1,052,926, with related lease liabilities of $1,091,350, of which $244,057 was current and $847,293 was long-term.

**Legal
Contingencies**
The
Company is subject to various legal proceedings and claims, either asserted or unasserted, arising in the ordinary course of
business. While the outcome of these claims cannot be predicted with certainty, management does not believe the outcome of any of
these matters will have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position, results of operations, or cash flows, and
accordingly, no legal contingencies are accrued as of December 31, 2025 and 2024. Litigation relating to the insurance

**Spetner
Associates, Inc. Transaction and Termination**
On
May 14, 2024, as amended and restated on September 6, 2024, and further amended on October 29, 2024 and February 20, 2025 (collectively,
the Stock Exchange Agreement), the Company entered into an agreement to acquire 80% of the issued and outstanding common
stock of Spetner Associates, Inc. (Spetner), a technology-enabled benefits enrollment company, for aggregate consideration
of $16,050,000. The purchase price was to be paid in a combination of $6,500,000 in cash, shares of the Companys common stock
equal to 9.9% beneficial ownership at the time of issuance, and promissory notes for the remaining balance. The agreement also provided
the Company with an option to acquire the remaining 20% interest based on a multiple of 10 times EBITDA.
In
connection with the contemplated acquisition, the Company issued 140,064 shares and 157,000 shares of its common stock on October 29,
2024 and February 20, 2025, respectively, representing non-refundable deposits and prepayments totaling approximately $568,856 toward
the initial purchase price. These amounts were initially recorded as prepaid expenses and other current assets.
On
July 22, 2025, the Company received and accepted written notice of termination of the Stock Exchange Agreement. As a result of the termination,
the Company does not expect to recover the shares previously issued as prepayments. Accordingly, the Company recognized an expense of
approximately $568,856 within general and administrative expenses during the year ended December 31, 2025. No acquisition of Spetner
was consummated, and the Company has no ongoing material obligations related to the terminated agreement.
**NOTE
15. INCOME TAXES**
The Company recorded no income tax expense or benefit for the years ended
December 31, 2025 and 2024 due primarily to the recognition of a full valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets, resulting from
cumulative historical losses and uncertainty regarding the timing of future taxable income.

The
Company has approximately $1.3 million of Federal Net Operating Loss Carry forwards, of which $1.3 million will begin to expire
beginning 2031 and $55.9 million will not expire but are limited to use of 80% of current year taxable income.
The
Company has approximately $47.4 million of state net operation loss carry forward to offset future taxable income in the states in
which it currently operates. These carryforwards start expiring in 2029.
Internal
Revenue Code Section 382 limits the ability to utilize net operating losses if a 50% change in ownership occurs over a three-year period.
Such limitation of the net operating losses may have occurred, but we have not analyzed it at this time as the deferred tax asset is
fully reserved.
During
the year ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the valuation allowance increased $3,589,574 and $2,636,992,
respectively.
The
tax periods ending December 31, 2023, 2024, and 2025 are open for examination.

by the Companys Crypto Advisory Board (CAB), Mr. Fishman may use his personal cryptocurrency trading accounts on
an interim basis to facilitate purchases of digital assets on behalf of the Company while the Company completes the establishment of
its institutional cryptocurrency trading account. From the time of purchase, all rights, title and interest in the related digital assets
belong exclusively to the Company, and the assets are held in Mr. Fishmans account solely for the benefit of the Company. All
gains, losses, and risks associated with such digital assets transactions accrue entirely to the Company. The Agreement provides that,
once the Companys institutional account is established and upon written instruction from the CAB, Mr. Fishman will promptly transfer
to that account all digital assets held for the Companys benefit. The Company will reimburse Mr. Fishman only for the actual purchase
price and any reasonable, documented transaction fees incurred. No compensation or other consideration is payable to Mr. Fishman for
services provided under the Agreement. All activities under the Agreement are conducted in accordance with the Companys Insider
Trading Policy and applicable law. The Agreement was approved by the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors, which is comprised entirely
of independent, non-employee directors. The Agreement terminates upon the earlier of (i) completion of the transfer of all digital assets to the Companys institutional account or (ii) October 30, 2025, unless extended with Audit Committee approval. The agreement
terminated in accordance with its terms on October 30, 2025.

in the Companys condensed consolidated balance sheets as digital assets owned by the Company with any related unearned gains or
losses reflected in the consolidated statements of operations for the year ended, December 31, 2025. During October 2025, the Company
opened its institutional cryptocurrency account and Mr. Fishman transferred all digital assets purchased pursuant to the Agreement to
the Companys account.
**NOTE
17. SEGMENT REPORTING**
The
Company manages its business activities on a consolidated basis and operates as a single operating segment, the Insurance Segment, earning
its revenues from insurance commissions. Accounting policies of the Insurance segment are described in Note 2 *Summary of Significant
Accounting Policies*.
Our
CODM (chief operating decision maker) is our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Ezra Beyman. The CODM uses consolidated net income
(loss), as reported on our consolidated statements of operations, in evaluating performance of the Insurance Segment and determining
how to allocate resources of the Company as a whole, including for investments, stockholder return programs and our acquisition strategy.
The CODM does not review assets in evaluating the results of the Insurance Segment, and therefore, such information is not presented.
Further, the Companys investment in digital assets is managed as part of its overall corporate treasury activities and is not
evaluated by the CODM as a separate operating segment.
The
following table provides the financial results of our Insurance Segment:

**NOTE
18. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS**
****
Except
as set forth below and as disclosed throughout the notes to these financial statements, there were no subsequent events requiring disclosure
herein.
**Enquantum
Transaction***:*On January 15, 2026, the Company entered into a secured convertible promissory note with Enquantum Ltd. (Enquantum)
pursuant to which the Company advanced $166,000.
The note bore interest at 1%
per annum and was secured by a first-ranking floating charge over substantially all of Enquantums present and future assets. On
February 5, 2026, the Company entered into a Share Purchase Agreement (the Share Purchase Agreement) with Enquantum pursuant
to which the Company agreed, subject to specified milestone criteria and customary closing conditions, to acquire up to 51% of Enquantums issued and outstanding share capital on a fully diluted basis for aggregate consideration
of $2,125,000, payable in milestone-based tranches. On February 23, 2026, the Company consummated the initial closing under the Share
Purchase Agreement and acquired approximately 8% of Enquantums issued and outstanding share capital on a fully diluted basis. The
initial closing included (i) the conversion of the previously issued $166,000 secured note into Enquantum ordinary shares and (ii) an
additional cash investment representing the first milestone tranche. The Share Purchase Agreement provides for additional milestone-based
tranche investments designed to increase the Companys ownership interest to an aggregate of 51% on a fully diluted basis, subject
to the satisfaction (or waiver) of specified operational and commercialization milestones and other customary conditions. In connection
with the closing, the parties entered into an amendment to the Share Purchase Agreement granting the Company the right, at its discretion,
to accelerate the funding of one or more future milestone tranches. The agreement also contemplates a final control top-up to increase
the Companys ownership from 48% to 51% on a fully diluted basis, for which the Company has agreed to issue shares of its common
stock with an aggregate value of $125,000, based on the market price at the time of issuance. No such shares have been issued as of the
date of these financial statements. As of December 31, 2025, no amounts related to the note, the Share Purchase Agreement, or the initial
closing were reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
**Public
Offering:** On January 29, 2026, the Company closed a public offering of 7,407,408 shares of its common stock (or pre-funded warrants
in lieu thereof) together with warrants to purchase up to 14,814,816 shares of common stock, at a combined public offering price of $0.27
per share (or $0.269 per pre-funded warrant). Each share of common stock (or pre-funded warrant) was issued together with two warrants,
each exercisable for one share of common stock at an exercise price of $0.27 per share and expiring two years from the initial exercise
date. Gross proceeds from the offering were approximately $2.0 million, before deducting placement agent fees and other offering expenses.
In connection with the offering, the Company agreed to pay the placement agent a cash fee equal to 7.0% of the gross proceeds, a management
fee equal to 1.0% of the gross proceeds, reimbursement of certain expenses, and issued placement agent warrants exercisable for shares
equal to 7.0% of the aggregate number of shares of common stock and pre-funded warrants sold in the offering. The placement agent warrants
have an exercise price of $0.3375 per share and expire two years from the initial exercise date. The Company intends to use the net proceeds
from the offering for working capital, merger and acquisition activities, and general corporate purposes. As the offering was completed
subsequent to December 31, 2025, no amounts related to this transaction are reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
