<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="font-size:10.0pt;margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">On September&nbsp;22, 2015, Liquidity Services,&nbsp;Inc., a Delaware corporation (the &#147;Company&#148;), announced that it has entered into a definitive agreement to sell all of the assets of its Jacobs Trading, LLC subsidiary (the &#147;Jacobs Trading Business&#148;) to Tanager Acquisitions, LLC, a Minnesota-based reseller of closeout merchandise (the &#147;Buyer&#148;), in an approximately $17 million transaction.&#160; </font>The Company and Buyer expect to complete the transaction by September&nbsp;30th. Final timing will depend on satisfaction of customary closing conditions.</p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The agreed upon consideration to the Company for the Jacobs Trading Business is approximately $13&nbsp;million, subject to final closing adjustments, and payable in the form of a five-year note, plus the opportunity to receive up to an additional $2 million in cash based on achievement of earn-out targets in calendar year 2019, and up to an additional $2 million in cash based on achievement of earn-out targets in calendar year 2020.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Additionally, the sale of the Jacobs Trading Business allows the Company to utilize approximately $127 million in tax losses resulting in an anticipated near term cash benefit of approximately $35 million from tax refunds and a tax loss carry forward of approximately $31 million generating another approximately $13 million of tax benefit against future earnings.&#160; The transaction is expected to result in an approximately $29 million credit to income tax expense for fiscal year 2015. This divestment follows the termination of the legacy Jacobs Trading Wal-Mart contract which termination materially reduced the scope of the Jacobs Trading Business.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The Buyer is beneficially owned by Mr.&nbsp;Irwin Jacobs.&#160; Since the Company&#146;s original acquisition of the Jacobs Trading Business in 2011 from a company owned by Mr.&nbsp;Jacobs until December&nbsp;2014, Mr.&nbsp;Jacobs served as an independent consultant advisor to the Company.&#160; With the exception of Mr.&nbsp;Jacobs, there were no material relationships between the Company or its affiliates, on the one hand, and the Buyer, on the other hand.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="font-size:10.0pt;margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><b><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;font-weight:bold;">Washington, DC &#151; September&nbsp;25, 2015</font></b> &#151; Liquidity Services (NASDAQ: LQDT), a global solution provider in the reverse supply chain with the world&#146;s largest marketplace for business surplus, today announced that it has entered into a definitive agreement to sell its Jacobs Trading business to Tanager Acquisitions, LLC, a Minnesota-based reseller of closeout merchandise, in an approximately $17 million transaction. The companies expect to complete the transaction by September&nbsp;30th. Final timing will depend on satisfaction of customary closing conditions.</p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The agreed upon consideration to Liquidity Services for the Jacobs Trading business is approximately $13&nbsp;million, subject to final closing adjustments and payable in the form of a five-year note, plus the opportunity to receive up to an additional $2 million in cash based on achievement of earn-out targets in calendar year 2019, and up to an additional $2 million in cash based on achievement of earn-out targets in calendar year 2020.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Additionally, the sale of the Jacobs Trading business allows Liquidity Services to utilize approximately $127 million in tax losses resulting in an anticipated near term cash benefit of approximately $35 million from tax refunds and a tax loss carry forward of approximately $31 million generating another approximately $13 million of tax benefit against future earnings.&#160; The transaction is expected to result in an approximately $29 million credit to income tax expense for fiscal year 2015. This divestment follows the termination of the legacy Jacobs Trading Wal-Mart contract which materially reduced the scope of the Jacobs Trading business.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&#147;This transaction unlocks substantial near term growth capital that we will reinvest in our core Retail Supply Chain Group business focused on providing Fortune 1000 retailers and manufacturers with a complete reverse logistics solution for managing customer returns, shelf pulls, excess and overstock inventory,&#148; said Jim Rallo, President of Liquidity Services&#146; Retail Supply Chain Group.</font></p>
