Reliance Global Group, Inc. Income Taxes Disclosure

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 difference between the actual income tax rate versus the tax computed at the Federal Statutory rate follows:

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.
