(AIM: AFHP)

Exercise of Options

The Board of AFH, a leading financial planning led investment management firm, announces that application has been made for 12,000 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 under the AFH EMI Option Plan. The New Ordinary Shares will rank pari passu in all respects with the existing ordinary shares of the Company. 2,000 share options have an exercise price of £1.00 and 10,000 share options have an exercise price of £1.20. The New Ordinary Shares are expected to be admitted to trading on AIM on 7 November 2017.

Following the issue of the New Ordinary Shares, the issued share capital of the Company will comprise 30,595,443 ordinary shares of 10 pence, each with one voting right.

The total number of Ordinary Shares carrying voting rights in AFH is therefore 30,595,443. 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 will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or change to their interest in, or a change to their interest in the Company under the Financial Conduct Authority's Disclosure and Transparency Rules.
