Treasury Shares

AFH, a leading financial planning led wealth management firm, announces that, on 8 September 2016, it sold 6,936 ordinary shares of 10p each in the Company (the "Ordinary Shares") from its treasury holdings at a price of 162.5 pence per Ordinary Share (the "Sale"). The Sale was in accordance with the terms of the Company's general authority granted to it by shareholders of the Company at the annual general meeting held on 3 March 2016.

The 6,936 ordinary shares were used to satisfy the share component of one of the Company's deferred consideration obligations.

The Company advises that, following the Sale, the Company's issued ordinary share capital remains unchanged and the total number of ordinary shares of 10 pence each in issue is 24,105,152. The Company retains 35,800 Ordinary Shares in treasury which do not carry any voting rights.

The total number of Ordinary Shares carrying voting rights in AFH is therefore 24,069,352. 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.
