Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
On October 22, 2025, Reliance, Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2025. Attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 is a copy of the Company’s press release dated October 22, 2025 announcing the Company’s financial results for this period.
The information contained in this report and the exhibit hereto shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.
Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers
On October 21, 2025, the independent directors of the board of directors (the “Board”) of the Company adopted and approved an Executive Severance Policy (the “Policy”) for employees of the Company who are appointed as officers by the Board and certain key employees of the Company’s subsidiaries (collectively, the “Covered Employees”).
The Policy provides for the payment of severance and other benefits to Covered Employees in the event of a termination of employment by the Company without cause, as defined in the Policy (a “Qualifying Termination”). The Policy is not intended to amend or modify any other benefit contained in any individual agreements between the Company and any Covered Employee, including the terms of any equity awards.
In the event of a Qualifying Termination, and subject to the Covered Employee’s execution of a general release and waiver of claims against the Company, the Policy provides for the following payments to Covered Employees:
• A lump sum cash payment equal to the product of the Covered Employee’s monthly base salary in effect as of date of termination multiplied by 12 (or, if the Covered Employee has been employed for fewer than 12 months, an amount equal to the monthly base salary multiplied by the number of months employed);
• A lump sum cash payment equal to: (i) a pro-rata portion of the Covered Employee’s annual bonus for the year in which the Qualifying Termination occurs, based on the Company’s year-to-date performance through the full month prior to the date of termination, plus (ii) an amount equal to 50% of the Covered Employee’s target annual bonus (unless the Covered Employee has been employed for less than 12 months, in which case they are not eligible for such payment); and
• A lump sum payment equal to the cost of up to 12 months of COBRA premiums for the Covered Employee and his or her eligible dependents, if any.
Additionally, if within 24 months of a Covered Employee’s termination of employment, the Company determines, after a good faith investigation, that the Covered Employee engaged in conduct during the term of his or her employment that would have constituted grounds for termination for cause (as defined in the Policy), then the Covered Employee will be required to repay all amounts received under the Policy.
The above description is a summary of the terms of the Policy and is subject to and qualified in its entirety by the terms of the Policy, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
