<div style="TEXT-ALIGN: left; FONT-FAMILY: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; FONT-SIZE: 10pt">SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (3/18/15) &#8211; Meta Financial Group, Inc.

The common shares in the offering were sold at an average price of $35.03 per share, representing proceeds to the Company, net of direct selling costs, of $25.4 million. Up to $26 million of shares could have been issued under the program. Sandler O&#8217;Neill + Partners, L.P. served as the sales agent in this program.</div>

The Company intends to use the proceeds to support accelerating growth and expansion plans, general corporate purposes and strategic opportunities as they arise.</div>

You should read statements that contain these words carefully because they discuss our future expectations or state other &#8220;forward-looking&#8221; information. These forward-looking statements include statements with respect to the Company&#8217;s beliefs, expectations, estimates, and intentions that are subject to significant risks and uncertainties, and are subject to change based on various factors, some of which are beyond the Company&#8217;s control. Such statements address, among others, the following subjects: completion of review procedures for the period ended March 31, 2015; future operating results; customer retention; loan and other product demand; important components of the Company&#8217;s balance sheet and income statements; growth and expansion; new products and services, such as those offered by MetaBank or Meta Payment Systems&#174; (&#8220;MPS&#8221;), a division of the Bank; credit quality and adequacy of reserves; technology; and the Company&#8217;s employees. The following factors, among others, could cause the Company&#8217;s financial performance and results of operations to differ materially from the expectations, estimates, and intentions expressed in such forward-looking statements: the strength of the United States economy in general and the strength of the local economies in which the Company conducts operations; the effects of, and changes in, trade, monetary, and fiscal policies and laws, including interest rate policies of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the &#8220;Federal Reserve&#8221;), as well as efforts of the United States Treasury in conjunction with bank regulatory agencies to stimulate the economy and protect the financial system; inflation, interest rate, market, and monetary fluctuations; the timely development of and acceptance of new products and services offered by the Company as well as risks (including reputational and litigation) attendant thereto and the perceived overall value of these products and services by users; the risks of dealing with or utilizing third parties; the ability of the Bank to successfully integrate the operations of AFS/IBEX Financial Services Inc. (&#8220;AFS/IBEX&#8221;); the scope of restrictions and compliance requirements imposed by the Consent Order entered into by the Company as administered by the Federal Reserve and any other such actions which may be initiated by our regulators; the impact of changes in financial services laws and regulations, including but not limited to our relationship with our primary regulators, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency and the Federal Reserve; technological changes, including but not limited to the protection of electronic files or databases; acquisitions; litigation risk in general, including but not limited to those risks involving the MPS division; the growth of the Company&#8217;s business as well as expenses related thereto; continued maintenance by the Bank of its status as a well-capitalized institution; changes in consumer spending and saving habits; and the success of the Company at managing and collecting assets of borrowers in default.</div>
