Exhibit 99.1
Reliance Global Group Becomes Debt Free Following Retirement of 100% of Its Term Debt
Repayment of Oak Street Funding Term Loan Eliminates Approximately $1 Million of Annual Principal, Interest and Fee Payments
LAKEWOOD, N.J., October 05, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Reliance Global Group, Inc. (Nasdaq: EZRA) (“Reliance,” “EZRA” or the “Company”), an InsurTech company leveraging artificial intelligence, cloud computing and advanced technologies to transform the insurance agency/brokerage industry, today announced that it has repaid in full its term loan with Oak Street Funding LLC, which was the Company’s only term debt. As a result of the repayment, the Company has no outstanding term debt. The term loan had an outstanding balance of approximately $4.4 million as of June 30, 2026. Following the repayment, the Company has more than $6 million of cash on its balance sheet.
The loan was repaid with approximately $1.2 million from the sale of Southwestern Montana Insurance Center, which closed on September 11, 2026, approximately $2.2 million from the sale of Altruis Benefit Consulting, which closed on September 24, 2026, and approximately $1.0 million of cash previously held as collateral for the loan.
Highlights
| ● | Term debt retired. Following repayment of the Oak Street Funding term loan, the Company has retired 100% of its term debt. | |
| ● | More than $6 million of cash. Even after the repayment, the Company has more than $6 million of cash on its balance sheet. | |
| ● | Lower annual debt service. Repayment eliminates approximately $1 million of annual principal, interest and service fee payments, including approximately $400,000 of annual interest and service fees. | |
| ● | Cash collateral applied. Approximately $1.0 million of cash previously held as collateral for the loan was applied toward the payoff. | |
| ● | Funded by asset sales. The repayment was funded with proceeds from the Company’s sales of non-core agencies and cash previously held as loan collateral, without the issuance of any shares. |
“Retiring our term debt has been a priority since we began monetizing our non-core agencies, and doing so this month strengthens our balance sheet in a meaningful way,” said Ezra Beyman, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Reliance Global Group. “With the loan repaid, more of our cash can go toward our AI platform and the RELI Exchange network, and we have greater flexibility as we plan the Company’s next stage of growth.”
