Reliance Global Group Signs Letter of Intent to Sell Fortman Insurance for $5 Million in Cash
Transaction highlights strategic execution and unlocks capital for highly accretive Spetner Acquisition
LAKEWOOD, N.J., June 17, 2025 — Reliance Global Group, Inc. (Nasdaq: RELI) (“Reliance,” “we,” “us,” “our” or the “Company”) today announced it has signed a non-binding Letter of Intent (LOI) to sell Fortman Insurance Agency (“Fortman”), a wholly owned subsidiary for $5 million in cash. The contemplated sale price represents a meaningful premium over the original acquisition cost, underscoring the Company’s ability to acquire, improve, and opportunistically monetize assets to drive shareholder value.
Since acquiring Fortman, Reliance has implemented operational enhancements, upgraded internal systems, and established a strong leadership team. As a result, Fortman has evolved into a well-capitalized, efficiently run agency with a growing customer base and enhanced market presence.
Ezra Beyman, CEO of Reliance, commented, “The potential sale of Fortman demonstrates our disciplined capital allocation strategy and commitment to value creation. We acquired Fortman at a compelling valuation, strengthened its operations, and are now positioned to realize a meaningful return. This contemplated transaction reflects our ability to execute and supports our broader goal of building a highly profitable and focused organization. Not only does the sale price represent a premium to what we paid for Fortman, but it also adds substantial cash to our balance sheet—an especially notable achievement in light of our current market capitalization. We believe that this highlights the substantial underlying value embedded across our broader portfolio.”
Proceeds from the sale are expected to support Reliance’s planned acquisition of Spetner Associates (“Spetner”), a rapidly growing and synergistic insurance platform. As highlighted in previous announcements, Spetner has experienced robust growth in recent years and is expected to generate strong cash flow at both the subsidiary and parent company levels. The Company believes Spetner will integrate seamlessly into Reliance’s operations under the OneFirm strategy.
“By monetizing Fortman at a premium, we are building internal cash reserves that are intended to advance the Spetner acquisition,” added Beyman. “This strategy reflects our commitment to enhancing shareholder value while pursuing transformative and accretive growth opportunities. We believe replacing our Fortman subsidiary with Spetner aligns with our long-term vision for scale, synergy, and sustained cash flow generation.”
The LOI is non-binding and subject to customary due diligence and negotiation of definitive documentation. The Company will provide additional updates as the transaction progresses.
