Speaker #1: Thanks , Ted . Good afternoon , and thank you to everyone for joining us today . When I think about 2025 with out most is the progress we've made reshaping the company for the future Over the past year , we focused on strengthening the foundation of the business while beginning to execute on a broader strategy designed to expand reliance beyond this traditional insurance routes and into a technology driven growth .

Ezra Beyman: Thanks, Ted. Good afternoon, and thank you to everyone for joining us today. When I think about 2025, what stands out most is the progress we've made reshaping the company for the future. Over the past year, we focused on strengthening the foundation of the business while beginning to execute on a broader strategy designed to expand Reliance beyond its traditional insurance roots and into a technology-driven growth platform. In simple terms, our strategy is built around two complementary pillars. The first is our insurance and InsurTech platform, which provides recurring revenue, strong industry relationships, and a stable operational foundation. The second is EZRA International Group and the Scale51 model, which allows us to identify innovative technology companies and build meaningful ownership positions as those businesses grow and scale.

Speaker #1: In simple terms, our strategy is built around two complementary pillars. The first is our insurance and insurtech platform, which provides recurring strong industry relationships and a stable operational foundation.

Speaker #1: The second is Ezra International Group and the Scale 51 model, which allows us to identify innovative technology companies and build meaningful ownership positions as those businesses grow and scale. Together, these pillars are designed to give Reliance both operating stability and exposure to emerging technology opportunities that we believe can create long-term value.

Ezra Beyman: Together, these pillars are designed to give Reliance both operating stability and exposure to emerging technology opportunities that we believe can create long-term value. At the center of that strategy is the Scale Fifty-One operating model, which operates within our Ezra International Group platform. Scale Fifty-One is designed to identify innovative technology companies, acquire meaningful ownership positions, and actively support their growth as they scale into global markets. By leveraging our public company platform, operational expertise, and strategic relationships, we aim to help promising technologies move from early innovation to scalable commercial businesses. Through this model, we are targeting sectors where innovation and long-term growth opportunities are accelerating, including cybersecurity, artificial intelligence, fintech, and digital health. While Scale Fifty-One represents an important expansion of our strategy, it is built on a business that continues to generate stable operating performance.

Speaker #1: As at the center of that strategy is the scale 51 operating model , which operates within our international group platform . Scale 51 is designed to identify innovative technology companies acquiring meaningful ownership positions and actively support their growth as they scale into global , global markets by leveraging our public company platform , operational expertise and strategic relationships .

Speaker #1: We aim to help promising technologies move from early innovation to scalable commercial businesses . Through this model , we are targeting sectors where innovation and long term growth opportunities are accelerating , including cybersecurity , artificial intelligence , fintech and digital health .

Speaker #1: While scale 51 represents an important expansion of our strategy , it is built on a business that continues to generate stable operating performance .

Speaker #1: Our insurance and insurer tech operations serve as the operational backbone of the company, generating recurring revenue while supporting our long-term initiatives.

Ezra Beyman: Our insurance and InsurTech operations serve as the operational backbone of the company, generating recurring revenue while supporting our long-term initiatives. In 2025, these operations generated more than $12 million in commission income, demonstrating the strength of the platform we have built. A key driver of our platform is RELI Exchange, our technology-enabled distribution network that connects independent insurance agencies with carrier markets and operational tools that help them grow their businesses. We saw strong evidence of that growth during the year with personal lines, property and casualty premiums generating through RELI Exchange, increasing approximately 36% year-over-year, and policies written during the most recent health insurance open enrollment season, increasing approximately 72%.

Speaker #1: In 2025, these operations generated more than $12 million in commission income, demonstrating the strength of the platform we have built. A key driver of our platform is Rely Exchange.

Speaker #1: Our technology enabled distribution network that connects independent insurance agencies with carrier markets and operational tools that help them grow their businesses . We saw strong evidence of that growth during the year with personal lines , property and casualty premiums generating through the exchange , increasing approximately 36% year over year .

Speaker #1: And policies written during the most recent health insurance open enrollment season increased approximately 72%. Since acquiring Rely Exchange in 2022, our partner network has expanded from roughly 65 agencies to approximately 250.

Ezra Beyman: Since acquiring RELI Exchange in 2022, our partner network has expanded from roughly 65 agencies to approximately 250 today, significantly increasing our distribution reach and supporting continued organic growth. At the same time, we took several steps during the year to strengthen our balance sheet and simplify our operating structure. As part of this effort, we monetized several non-core operations to sharpen our strategic focus and redeploy capital toward high-growth opportunities. This included the sale of Fortmann Insurance Services for $5 million in cash and the sale of Employee Benefits Solutions and U.S. Benefits Alliance. While these businesses have been part of our portfolio for several years, we determined that redeploying the capital and management focus toward RELI Exchange and our technology initiatives through EZRA International Group better aligns with our long-term strategy.

Speaker #1: Today , significantly increasing our distribution reach and supporting continued organic growth . At the same time , we took several steps during the year to strengthen our balance sheet and simplify our operating structure .

Speaker #1: As part of this effort, we monetized several non-core operations to sharpen our strategic focus and redeploy capital toward high-growth opportunities. This included the sale of Fortman Insurance Services for $5 million in cash and the sale of Employee Benefits Solutions and US Benefits Alliance.

Speaker #1: While these businesses had been part of our portfolio for several years, we determined that redeploying the capital and management focus toward ReliExchange and our technology initiatives was the right decision.

Speaker #1: Through Ezra International Group , better aligned with our long term strategy These actions help simplify the organization , reduce operational complexity and improve , improve financial flexibility With that foundation in place , we began executing on the scale 51 strategy through several initial transactions that illustrate the type of opportunities we intend to pursue over time One example is our investment in in quantum , a company developing next generation post-quantum encryption technology designed to protect critical digital infrastructure .

Ezra Beyman: These actions help simplify the organization, reduce operational complexity, and improve financial flexibility. With that foundation in place, we began executing on the Scale51 strategy through several initial transactions that illustrate the type of opportunities we intend to pursue over time. One example is our investment in Enquantum, a company developing next-generation post-quantum encryption technology designed to protect critical digital infrastructure as quantum computing advances. Quantum computing has the potential to fundamentally change cybersecurity. Many of the encryption systems currently protecting financial networks, cloud infrastructure, telecommunication systems, government data, and other critical infrastructure rely on mathematical problems that today's computers cannot easily solve. However, sufficiently advanced quantum computers could eventually break many of these existing crypto, cryptographic systems, creating what many experts view as one of the most significant long-term cybersecurity challenges facing the digital economy. Governments and industry are already preparing for this transition.

Speaker #1: As quantum computing advances , quantum computing has the potential to fundamentally change cybersecurity . Many of the encryption systems currently protecting financial networks , cloud infrastructure , telecommunication systems , government data , and other critical structure infrastructure rely on mathematical problems that today's computers cannot easily solve However , sufficiently advanced quantum computers could eventually break many of these existing cryptographic systems , creating what many experts view as one of the most significant long term cyber challenges facing the digital economy Governments and industry are already preparing for this transition New post-quantum encryption standards are being developed and organizations are beginning to evaluate how they will migrate their systems to quantum resistant cryptography Analysis .

Ezra Beyman: New post-quantum encryption standards are being developed, and organizations are beginning to evaluate how they will migrate their systems to quantum-resistant cryptography. Analysts expect this transition to require large-scale upgrades across financial systems, cloud infrastructure, telecommunications networks, and government systems over the coming decade. Through our investment in Enquantum, we believe Reliance is positioning itself to participate in this emerging cybersecurity opportunity. Importantly, our agreement establishes a milestone-based pathway toward majority ownership as the company continues to advance its technology and expand its commercial activities. We also announced an agreement to acquire a majority stake in SenTech Medical, an artificial intelligence diagnostic company developing non-invasive breast analysis technology designed to detect disease-related biomarkers earlier than traditional testing methods. Early detection remains one of the most important challenges in healthcare, particularly for serious diseases where earlier diagnosis can significantly improve treatment outcomes.

Speaker #1: Expect this transition to require large scale upgrades across financial systems . Cloud infrastructure , telecommunications networks , and government systems over the coming decades .

Speaker #1: Decade Through our investment in quantum , we believe reliance is positioning itself to participate in this emerging cybersecurity opportunity . Importantly , our agreement establishes a milestone based pathway toward majority ownership as the company continues to advance its technology and expand its commercial activities We also announced an agreement to acquire a majority stake in Suntech Medical , an artificial intelligence diagnostic company developing non-invasive breath analysis technology designed to detect disease related biomarkers .

Speaker #1: Earlier than traditional testing methods Early detection remains one of the most important challenges in healthcare , particularly for serious diseases where earlier diagnosis can significantly improve treatment outcomes Advances in artificial intelligence and biomarker are creating new opportunities to identify disease signatures using non-invasive diagnostic tools Fintech is developing technology that combines AI driven analytics , analytics with breadth analysis to help identify disease indicators .

Ezra Beyman: Advances in artificial intelligence and biomarker analysis are creating new opportunities to identify disease signatures using non-invasive diagnostic tools. SenTech is developing technology that combines AI-driven analytics with breath analysis to help identify disease indicators earlier and more efficiently. If successfully developed and commercialized, technology like this could help physicians detect certain diseases sooner while reducing the need for more invasive testing procedures. Through this transition, Reliance will acquire a majority ownership position, allowing us to participate in the potential growth of this emerging diagnostic platform as it continues to advance its technology and commercial commitment. Taken together, these transactions represent the initial steps in executing our Scale51 strategy within the EZRA International Group platform, which is focused on identifying innovative technologies and building meaningful ownership positions in companies operating in high growth sectors such as cybersecurity, artificial intelligence, and digital health.

Speaker #1: Earlier and more efficiently . If successfully developed and commercialized technologies like this could help physicians detect certain diseases sooner . While reducing the need for more invasive testing procedures Through this transition , reliance will acquire a majority ownership position , allowing us to participate in the potential growth of this emerging diagnostic platform .

Speaker #1: As it continues to advance its technology and commercial commitment Taken together , these transactions represent the initial steps in executing our scale 51 strategy within the Asia International Group platform , which is focused on identifying innovative technologies and building meaningful ownership positions in companies operating in high growth sectors such as cybersecurity , artificial intelligence and digital health .

Speaker #1: As part of this strategic evolution , we also transitioned our Nasdaq ticker symbol from Re-ly to Esra Ezra , aligning the company's public identity with the broader vision we are building through Ezra International to develop a portfolio of technology driven businesses that can scale globally and create long term value for our shareholders .

Ezra Beyman: As part of this strategic evolution, we also transitioned our Nasdaq ticker symbol from RELI to EZRA, E-Z-R-A. Aligning the company's public identity with the broader vision we are building through EZRA International to develop a portfolio of technology-driven businesses that can scale globally and create long-term value for our shareholders. When you step back and look at the bigger picture, Reliance is evolving into something broader than a traditional insurance company. Our insurance and InsurTech platform continues to provide a stable operating base, while EZRA International Group and the Scale51 strategy expand our reach into emerging technology sectors, where innovation and long-term growth opportunities are accelerating. By combining the stability of our insurance platform with targeted ownership in innovative technology companies, we believe we are building a model that can participate in both recurring operating growth and long-term value creation from emerging technologies.

It will be my pleasure to walk through some of our key financial highlights for the year ended December 31, 2025. Unless otherwise noted, all figures discussed are approximate. Our financial priorities during 2025 were centered on strengthening our balance sheet, improving liquidity, and positioning the company for disciplined long-term growth. As Ezra mentioned earlier, 2025 was an important transition year for us. During the year, we executed a portfolio realignment through the asset sales of our subsidiaries, Fortmann Insurance Services, Employee Benefits Solutions, and U.S. Benefits Alliance. These transactions allowed us to reduce debt, strengthen our balance sheet, and simplify our operating structure as we reposition the business to support our Scale51 technology growth strategy.

Speaker #4: Unless otherwise noted , all figures discussed are approximate . Our financial priorities during 2025 were centered on strengthening our balance sheet , improving liquidity and positioning the company for disciplined , long term growth As Ezra mentioned earlier , 2025 was an important transition year for us .

Speaker #4: During the year, we executed a portfolio realignment through the asset sales of our subsidiaries: Portman Insurance Services, Employee Benefit Solutions, and US Benefits Alliance. These transactions allowed us to reduce debt, strengthen our balance sheet, and simplify our operating structure as we reposition the business to support our scale.

Speaker #4: 51 technology Growth strategy Importantly , our insurance brokerage and assure tech platforms continue to provide a stable operating foundation , which we believe positions the company well as we pursue this next phase of growth Let's begin with a quick look at the balance sheet compared with year end 2020 .

Joel Markovits: Importantly, our insurance brokerage and InsurTech platforms continue to provide a stable operating foundation, which we believe positions the company well as we pursue this next phase of growth. Let's begin with a quick look at the balance sheet compared with year-end 2024. Unrestricted cash increased $0.9 million, or 250% to $1.3 million at 31 December 2025, compared with $0.4 million a year ago. Working capital improved by $1.5 million or 351% to $1.9 million. Our stockholders' equity increased $3.4 million or 114% to $6.4 million. These improvements reflect our continued focus on strengthening our financial position and maintaining the flexibility needed to support our future growth initiatives. Turning to the income statement.

Speaker #4: For unrestricted cash, increased $0.9 million, or 250%, to $1.3 million at December 31, 2025, compared with $0.4 million a year ago.

Speaker #4: These improvements reflect our continued focus on strengthening our financial position and maintaining the flexibility needed to support our future growth initiatives . Turning to the income statement , Commission income totaled $12.4 million for the year ended December 31st , 2025 , compared with $14.1 million in 2024 .

Joel Markovits: Commission income totaled $12.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared with $14.1 million in 2024. The decrease primarily reflects our strategic portfolio realignment during the year with the divestitures of subsidiaries previously mentioned. Commission expense was $4.6 million compared with $4.2 million in 2024. The increase primarily reflects higher commissions associated with increased sales activity within certain of our remaining operations, as well as general market conditions across the insurance sector. Salaries and wages totaled $10.3 million in 2025, compared with $7.2 million in 2024.

Speaker #4: The decrease primarily reflects our portfolio realignment during the year, with divestitures of subsidiaries previously mentioned. Commission expense was $4.6 million, compared with $4.2 million in 2020 for the increase.

Speaker #4: Primarily reflects higher commissions associated with increased sales activity within certain of our remaining operations , as well as general market conditions across the insurance sector .

Speaker #4: Salaries and wages totaled $10.3 million in 2025 , compared with $7.2 million in 2024 . The increased primarily reflects non-cash share based compensation recognized during the year , which aligns management incentives with long term shareholder value , partially offset by the elimination of salaries associated with the divested subsidiaries .

Joel Markovits: The increase primarily reflects non-cash share-based compensation recognized during the year, which aligns management incentives with long-term shareholder value, partially offset by the elimination of salaries associated with the divested subsidiaries pursuant to our portfolio realignment. General and administrative expenses were $4.9 million, compared with $4.2 million in 2024. The increase was largely driven by non-cash equity awards to directors and service providers, aligning incentives with long-term shareholder value, offset by operational efficiencies achieved through the company's One Firm operating model. Net loss improved by $2 million to $7 million, compared with $9.1 million in 2024. Primarily reflecting gains from our portfolio realignment transactions, as well as the absence of asset impairment charges recorded in the prior year.

Speaker #4: Pursuant to our portfolio realignment General and administrative expenses were $4.9 million , compared with $4.2 million in 2024 . The increase was largely driven by non-cash equity awards to directors and service providers , aligning incentives for long term shareholder value , offset by operational efficiencies achieved through the company's one firm operating model Net loss improved , improved by $2 million to $7 million compared with $9.1 million in 2024 , primarily reflecting gains from our portfolio realignment transactions as well as the absence of asset impairment charges recorded in the prior year Finally , adjusted EBITDA , which is a non-GAAP financial measure , was a loss of $1.6 million compared with a loss of 0.3 million in 2024 , a changed primarily reflects the revenue fluctuations following the company's portfolio realignment transactions , as well as some higher operating costs and slightly higher commission expense associated with increased sales activity for certain of our remaining operations .

Ezra Beyman: Okay. How are you?

Nicole Calvin: Well, doing well. Congratulations on the progress, and thank you for taking my questions. My first question is around Scale51, and you spent some time during the call discussing this initiative, which sounds like an exciting new direction for the company. Can you share a bit more about what investors should expect from the Scale51 strategy over the next 6 to 12 months?

Speaker #5: Doing well. Congratulations on the progress, and thank you for taking my questions. My first question is around Scale 51, and you spent some time during the call discussing this initiative, which sounds like an exciting new direction for the company.

Speaker #5: But can you share a bit more about what investors should expect from the scale 51 strategy over the next 6 to 12 months

Speaker #1: Okay . I mean , I think in a very short phrase , and I'll elaborate a little more positive big good excitement , which translate into bottom lines as well .

Ezra Beyman: Okay. I mean, I think in a very short phrase, and I'll elaborate a little more. Positive, big, good excitement, which should translate into bottom lines as well. You know, we're focusing on not, you know, very young companies which, you know, have less promise, but companies that somewhat already showed, you know, either close to revenue or accomplishing certain things, and usually yes, close to revenue. You know, we've talked to a lot of companies before we zero in, and we think that we're off to a good start. You know, both within Quantum, which we've already closed and what we're seeing and the excitement about that. It's really, it's more major actually than we realized. During due diligence we discovered it was better than we thought. It's getting exciting.

Speaker #1: You know , we're focusing on not , you know , very young companies , which , you know , have less promise , but companies that are somewhat ready showed , you know , either close to revenue or accomplishing certain things .

Speaker #1: And usually , yes , close to revenue . And , you know , we've we've , you know , talked to a lot of companies before .

Speaker #1: We zero in and we think that we're off to a good start . You know both within quantum which we've already closed and the what we're seeing and the excitement about that It's it's really it's more major actually than we realized during due diligence .

Speaker #1: We discovered it was better than we thought . And it's getting exciting . We hope to share that as as things progress , as milestones are achieved .

Ezra Beyman: We hope to share that as things progress, as milestones are achieved. That's part of our, you know, our policy and philosophies. We're not just, you know, handing over checks. There has to be milestones have to be achieved for us to, you know, make, you know, payments on investments. So far that's working, and we look forward to a lot more.

Speaker #1: And that's part of the our , you know , our policy on philosophies . We're not just , you know , handing over cheques .

Speaker #1: They have to be milestones , have to be us to , you know , make payments . Our investments and so far that's working .

Speaker #1: And we look forward to a lot more.

Speaker #5: Well, thank you for expanding on that for me. And during the call, you also highlighted the growing need for post-quantum encryption technologies. Where is InQuantum currently in terms of product development and commercialization, and what kind of timeline might investors expect before the company begins generating revenue?

Nicole Calvin: Well, thank you for expanding on that for me.

Ezra Beyman: Mm-hmm.

Nicole Calvin: During the call, you also highlighted the growing need for post-quantum encryption technologies.

Ezra Beyman: Mm-hmm.

Nicole Calvin: Where is Enquantum currently in terms of product development and commercialization, and what kind of timeline might investors expect before the company begins generating revenue?

Speaker #1: The truth is , we're excited to say that revenue is quite possible , even within the year . Even later this year , believe , you know , it's they're working on a few years and we're coming to the point where and we have the team that's there and we're , you know , we have very strategic people on the team that are we're working towards revenue .

Ezra Beyman: The truth is, we're excited to say that revenue is quite possible even within the year, even later this year. We have the team that's there, and you know, we have very strategic people on the team. We're working towards revenue, hopefully even later this year. I'm not sure everyone appreciates what quantum computing is. Quantum computing is. We're talking about as fast as you think you get your computing today. Quantum computing that's being worked on worldwide is about 10,000 times quicker than existing computing. That could tell you why it's so crucial and important to have something that protects the encryptions that you have.

Speaker #1: Hopefully even later this year . And I will say that not every I'm not sure everyone appreciates what quantum computing is , but quantum computing is we're talking about as fast as you think .

Speaker #1: You get your computing today. Quantum computing that's being worked on worldwide is about 10,000 times quicker than existing computing. That can tell you why it's so, so crucial.

Speaker #1: And it's important to have something that protects the encryptions that you have. All the codes and things that are today will be meaningless with that type of computing.

Nicole Calvin: Mm-hmm.

Ezra Beyman: All the codes and things that are today will be meaningless with that type of computing. It could be broken in seconds. We're learning more as we, you know, have this team, and they really know what they were doing in execution. The due diligence team was extremely, overwhelmingly impressed by the team at Enquantum. It's getting exciting, really. It'll translate into dollars and cents soon. It's a really exciting development that's needed for the world, and it'd be good for Reliance and for EZRA International Group.

I'm looking forward to that My last question is around the Sentek opportunity , which sounds really interesting and particularly the non-invasive breath analysis technology Can you expand on what makes Sentech's approach unique and what you believe differentiates it from other diagnostic technologies currently in development

Nicole Calvin: Yes. Well, thank you. I'm looking forward to that. My last question is around Scentech, the Scentech opportunity, which it sounds really interesting, and particularly the non-invasive breath analysis technology. Can you expand on what makes Scentech's approach unique and what you believe differentiates it from other diagnostic technologies currently in development?

Speaker #1: Okay, that's great. That's a very good question, and I'm excited to give you an answer. As you know, there are many diseases.

Ezra Beyman: Okay. That's great. That's a very good question. I'm excited to give you an answer. As you know, there are, you know, many diseases, and like one of them that actually Scentech is focused on is pancreatic cancer. I'm sure you know that usually when someone gets a diagnosis of pancreatic cancer, it's usually somewhat late, where it could be stage four.

Speaker #1: And like one of them that actually sentech is focused on is pancreatic cancer . And I'm sure you know that usually when someone gets a diagnosis of pancreatic cancer , it's usually somewhat late where it could be stage four or , you know , it's it's not a diagnosis that someone wants to hear .

Nicole Calvin: Mm-hmm.

Ezra Beyman: You know, it's not a diagnosis that someone wants to hear. Believe it or not, the technology already exists and has been proven with other diseases, but now, you know, the concept of biomarkers that exist in human breath. There's, of course, not fully proven yet. That's all in the process. There's good reason to believe, based on the science and the research that's been done, that this will help in identifying serious diseases as well, like pancreatic cancer. Which means coming in way earlier than previously diagnosed. What just means, whether it means removing the pancreas, whatever has to be done, it's, you know, it's a life and death difference, literally. Makes a difference whether a person literally, you know, with just their breath.

Speaker #1: Finally proven yet . That's all on the process . But there's good reason to believe , based on the science and the research that's been done , that this will help it identifying serious diseases as well , like pancreatic cancer , which means coming in way earlier than previously diagnosed and which just means whether it means moving the pancreas , whatever has to be done , it's , you know , it's a life and death difference literally makes a difference whether a person literally , you know , with their breath , actually a painless , simple test that can determine , hey , we better take care of this without any , you know , major investor or even worse , people having to go through therapy that who knows if it works .

Ezra Beyman: Actually a painless, simple test that could determine, hey, we better take care of this without any, you know, major or even worse, people having to go through therapy that who knows if it works. This is major. Actually our due diligence team as well, savvy, you know, very savvy people, and they were blown away themselves. You know, early detection saves lives. That's a given.
