This Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-Q/A (“Amendment No. 1” or “Form 10-Q/A”) This Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-Q/A (“Amendment No. 1” or “Form 10-Q/A”) is being filed to:

(ii) | insert additional disclosure relating to the Restatement to Note 1; |
(iii) | replace Note 7 from the Original Form 10-Q in its entirety as a result of the Restatement; |

(v) | revise Part I, Item 4 to indicate that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of September 30, 2022; |
(vi) | replace the exhibit index contained in Item 6 in its entirety; |

On May 12, 2023, management concluded its evaluation and determined that the identified errors require the filing of Amendment No. 1, as further discussed in Notes 1 and 7 to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Form 10-Q/A.

| ● | Part I — Item 1. Financial Statements |

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying unaudited condensed 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 unaudited condensed 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. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2021 included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K.
Restatement of Previously Issued Financial Statements
Subsequent to the Company’s filing of its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2022, with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 14, 2022, the Company performed an evaluation of its accounting in connection with the calculation of its basic Earnings Per Share (“EPS”) and diluted EPS for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, which concluded on May 12, 2023, and identified errors in such calculations. The errors resulted from improper application of sequencing rules, a miscalculation of the numerator used in the determination of diluted EPS, and a miscalculation of the denominator used in the determination of weighted average shares outstanding for both basic EPS and diluted EPS, and the Company determined that the errors required adjustments of the previously issued financial statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022. Accordingly, the Company restates its consolidated financial statements for the identified periods in this Form 10-Q/A as outlined further below and in Note 7 Earnings (Loss) Per Share.
The following table sets forth the effects of the adjustments on affected items within the Company’s previously reported consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended September 30, 2022, and includes an increase to basic earnings per share in the amount of $0.04 includes an increase to diluted earnings (loss) per share in the amount of $6.19, a decrease to weighted average number of shares outstanding – basic of 4,679 shares, and an increase to weighted average number of shares outstanding - diluted of 143,260 shares.

Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. 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.

Investment in Nsure
On February 19, 2020, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement with NSURE, Inc. (“NSURE”), which was further amended on October 8, 2020, and as amended provides that the Company may invest up to an aggregate of $5,700,000 in NSURE to be funded in three tranches. In exchange, the Company will receive a total of 928,343 shares of NSURE’s Class A Common Stock.
During the course of calendar year 2020 and by October 8, 2020, the Company funded the first tranche, $1,350,000 in exchange for 394,029 shares. The second tranche allowed the Company to acquire an additional 209,075 shares at a price of $6.457 per share by no later than December 30, 2020. The third full tranche allowed the Company to purchase an additional 325,239 shares at a purchase price of $9.224 after December 20, 2020, but no later than March 31, 2021.
The Company did not fund tranches two and three in the required timeframes, thus, the Company relinquished its rights under the contract to any additional NSURE shares aside for the ones already acquired with tranche one.
The Company measures the NSURE shares subsequent to acquisition in accordance with ASC 321-10-35-2, at cost less impairment since no readily determinable fair value is available to the Company. The investment is reviewed for impairment at each reporting period by qualitatively assessing any indicators demonstrating fair value of the investment is less than carrying value. The Company did not observe any price changes resulting from orderly transactions for identical or similar assets for the periods ended September 30, 2022 or September 30, 2021. ASC 321-10-50-4 further requires an entity to disclose unrealized gains and losses for periods that relate to equity securities held at a reporting date. To-date, the Company has not recognized any unrealized gains or losses on the NSURE security.
In accordance with ACS 321-10-35-3, the Company performed a qualitative assessment to determine if the investment may be impaired. After considering the indicators contained in ASC 321-10-35-3a –3e, the Company determined that the investment was not impaired.

No other single Customer accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s commission revenues. The loss of any significant customer, including Priority Health, BlueCross BlueShield and LTC Global could have a material adverse effect on the Company.
Income Taxes
The Company recorded no income tax expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 because the estimated annual effective tax rate was zero. In determining the estimated annual effective income tax rate, the Company analyzes various factors, including projections of the Company’s annual earnings and taxing jurisdictions in which the earnings will be generated, the impact of state and local income taxes, the ability to use tax credits and net operating loss carry forwards, and available tax planning alternatives.
As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company provided a full valuation allowance against its net deferred tax assets since the Company believes it is more likely than not that its deferred tax assets will not be realized.
Prior Period Adjustments
The Company identified certain immaterial adjustments impacting prior reporting periods. Specifically, the Company identified adjustments to correct certain asset, liability and equity accounts in relation to historical purchase price allocation accounting, historical accrued revenues and true ups of the common stock issuable account.
The Company assessed the materiality of the adjustments to prior period financial statements in accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin No. (SAB) 99, Materiality, and SAB 108, Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements, and ASC 250, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections.
Accordingly, the Company’s comparative condensed consolidated financial statements and impacted notes have been revised from amounts previously reported to reflect these adjustments. The following table illustrates the impact on previously reported amounts and adjusted balances presented in the condensed consolidated financial statements for the period ended September 30, 2022.

NOTE 2. STRATEGIC INVESTMENTS AND BUSINESS COMBINATIONS
Medigap Healthcare Insurance Company, LLC Transaction
On January 10, 2022, pursuant to an asset purchase agreement, dated December 21, 2021, the Company completed the acquisition of all of the assets of Medigap Healthcare Insurance Company, LLC (“Medigap”) for a purchase price of $20,096,250, consisting of: (i) payment to Medigap of $18,138,750 in cash and (ii) the issuance to Medigap of 40,402 shares of the Company’s restricted common stock in a transaction exempt from registration under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The purchase price is subject to post-closing adjustment to reconcile certain pre-closing credits and liabilities of the parties. The shares issued to Medigap as part of the purchase price are further subject to lock up arrangements pursuant to which 50% of the shares may be sold after the one-year anniversary of the date of closing of the transaction and the balance of the shares may be sold after the second-year anniversary of the date of closing of the transaction.
The acquisition of Medigap was accounted for as a business combination in accordance with the acquisition method pursuant to FASB Topic No. 805, Business Combination (ASC 805). Accordingly, the total purchase consideration was allocated to the assets acquired, and liabilities assumed based on their respective estimated fair values. The acquisition method of accounting requires, among other things, that assets acquired, and liabilities assumed, if any, in a business purchase combination be recognized at their fair values as of the acquisition date. The process for estimating the fair values of identifiable intangible assets and certain tangible assets requires the use of significant estimates and assumptions, including estimating future cash flows, developing appropriate discount rates, estimating the costs, and timing.
The preliminary allocation of the purchase price in connection with the acquisition of Medigap was calculated as follows:
SCHEDULE OF ALLOCATION OF PURCHASE PRICE
Description | | Fair Value | | | Weighted Average Useful Life (Years) | |
Property, plant and equipment | | $ | 20,666 | | | | 5 | |
Right-of-use asset | | | 317,787 | | | | | |

Chargeback reserve | | | (1,484,473 | ) | | | | |
Lease liability | | | (317,787 | ) | | | | |
Goodwill | | | 19,199,008 | | | | Indefinite | |
| | $ | 22,902,201 | | | | | |
Trade name was measured at fair value using the relief-from-royalty method under the income approach. Significant inputs used to measure the fair value include an estimate of projected revenue from the trade name, a pre-tax royalty rate of 0.5% and a discount rate of 11.0%.
Customer relationships were measured at fair value using the multiple-period excess earnings method under the income approach. Significant inputs used to measure the fair value include an estimate of projected revenue and costs associated with existing customers, and a discount rate of 11.0%.
Technology was measured at fair value using the cost replacement method of the cost approach. Significant inputs used to measure the fair value include an estimate of cost to replace, an obsolescence rate of 40.3%.
The value assigned to backlog acquired was estimated based upon the contractual nature of the backlog as of the acquisition date, using the income approach to discount back to present value the cash flows attributable to the backlog, using a discount rate of 11.0%.
Goodwill of $19,199,008 arising from the acquisition of Medigap consisted of the value of the employee workforce and the residual value after all identifiable intangible assets were valued. Goodwill recognized pursuant to the acquisition of Medigap is currently expected to be deductible for income tax purposes. Total acquisition costs for the acquisition of Medigap incurred were $94,065 recorded as a component of General and administrative expenses.
The approximate revenue and net profit or loss for the acquired business as a standalone entity per ASC 805 from January 10, 2022 to September 30, 2022 was $3,868,654 and a loss of $693,861, respectively.

NOTE 5. WARRANT LIABILITIES
Series B Warrants
On December 22, 2021, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement with several institutional buyers for the purchase and sale of (i) warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 651,997 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.086 per share at an exercise price of $61.35 per share, (ii) an aggregate of 178,059 shares of Common Stock, and (iii) 9,076 shares of the Company’s newly-designated Series B convertible preferred stock, par value $0.086 per share, with a stated value of $1,000 per share, initially convertible into an aggregate of 147,939 shares of Common Stock at a conversion price of $61.35 per share, each a freestanding financial instrument, (the “Private Placement”). The aggregate purchase price for the Common Shares, the Preferred Shares and the Warrants was approximately $20,000,000.
By entering into the Private Placement on December 22, 2021, the Company entered into a commitment to issue the Common Shares, Preferred 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”) represents a derivative financial instrument, other than an outstanding share, that, at inception, has both of the following characteristics: (i) embodies a conditional obligation indexed to the Company’s equity. 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 will subsequently remeasure 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. The Company initially recorded $17,652,808 of non-operating unrealized losses within the recognition and change in fair value of warrant liabilities account for the year ended December 31, 2021. The Private Placement closed on January 4, 2022, at which time the Company remeasured the derivative liability for the warrants issued in the transaction. The Company recognized $7,726,161 and $34,621,024 of non-operating unrealized gains within the recognition and change in fair value of warrant liabilities account on the condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively, related to the subsequent changes in its fair value through September 30, 2022. A corresponding derivative liability of $3,031,784 is included on Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2022. The closing of the Private Placement settled the subscription receivable reported on the Company’s balance sheet as of December 31, 2021.
Placement Agent Warrants
In connection with the Private Placement, the Company issued 16,303 warrants to the placement agent for the Private Placement. The warrants were issued as compensation for the Placement Agent’s services. The Placement Agent Warrants are: (i) exercisable on any day after the six (6) month anniversary of the issue date, (ii) expire five years after the closing of the Private Placement, and (iii) exercisable at $61.35 per share. The Placement Agent Warrants contain terms that may require the Company to transfer assets to settle the warrants. Therefore, the Placement Agent Warrants are classified as a derivative liability measured at fair value of $1,525,923 on the date of issuance and will be remeasured each accounting period with the changes in fair value reported in earnings. The Placement Agent Warrants are considered financing expense fees paid to the Placement Agent. Since the financing expenses relate to a derivative liability measured at fair value, this financing expense of $1,525,923, along with non-operating unrealized gains of $193,154 and $1,450,129, were included in the recognition and change in fair value of warrant liabilities account on the condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively, A corresponding derivative liability of $75,794 is included on Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2022.

NOTE 7. EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE
Basic EPS applicable to common stockholders is computed by dividing earnings applicable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding.
If there is a loss from operations, diluted EPS is computed in the same manner as basic EPS is computed. Similarly, if the Company has net income but its preferred dividend adjustment made in computing income available to common stockholders results in a net loss available to common stockholders, diluted EPS would be computed in the same manner as basic EPS.
The following calculates basic and diluted EPS:

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), refers to controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that such information is accumulated and communicated to a company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
The Company determined it had a material weakness in its disclosure controls and procedures as it pertains to earnings per share (EPS) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022. During the quarter ended March 31, 2023, the Company mitigated this deficiency by consulting with qualified advisors that have in-depth EPS expertise. These advisors will assist the Company in the calculations and disclosures of EPS for future reporting periods. Pursuant to the above, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2022, concluding them to be ineffective as of such date.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There have not been any 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 which is the subject of this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
