AFH Financial Group plc

("AFH" or the "Company")

Exercise of Options

The Board of AFH, a leading financial planning led investment management firm, announces that application has been made for 13,868 new ordinary shares of 10 pence each in the Company (the "New Ordinary Shares") to be admitted to trading on AIM. The New Ordinary Shares have been issued and allotted pursuant to the exercise of share options by two self-employed financial advisers under the AFH Contractors Share Option Plan. The New Ordinary Shares will rank pari passu in all respects with the existing ordinary shares of the Company. 3,000 share options have an exercise price of £1.00 and 10,868 share options have an exercise price of £0.37. The New Ordinary Shares are expected to be admitted to trading on AIM on 2 August 2016.

Following the issue of the New Ordinary Shares, the issued share capital of the Company comprises 24,105,152 ordinary shares of 10 pence, each with one voting right. The Company holds 42,736 Ordinary Shares in treasury which do not carry any voting rights.

The total number of Ordinary Shares carrying voting rights in AFH is therefore 24,062,416. This figure will represent the total voting rights in the Company and may be used by shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by which they can determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in the Company under the Financial Conduct Authority's Disclosure and Transparency Rules.
