      DGSE), a leading wholesaler and retailer of jewelry, diamonds, fine
      watches, and precious metal bullion and rare coin products, today
      announced that it has closed all locations in its Southern Bullion Coin
      and Jewelry division (&quot;Southern Bullion&quot;). As previously disclosed, six
      Southern Bullion locations were closed in February. Subsequently, four
      additional locations were closed in early April, and the final 13
      locations were closed on or about April 21, 2014. Following these
      actions, DGSE Companies will continue to operate 12 retail locations,
      including nine Dallas Gold &amp; Silver Exchange locations in Texas, one
      Bullion Express location in Illinois, and two Charleston Gold &amp; Diamond
      Exchange locations in South Carolina along with Fairchild International,
      the Company&#8217;s wholesale watch division.
    </p>
    <p>
      The Southern Bullion division will be reclassified as discontinued
      operations. During 2013, these discontinued operations generated a net
      loss of approximately $1.9 million. The remaining 12 locations,
      inclusive of all ongoing corporate overhead and public company costs,
      generated a net loss of approximately $0.8 million in 2013, and,
      excluding $1.7 million in non-recurring charges, these remaining 12
      locations generated a profit of approximately $0.9 million in 2013.
      Management believes that closing these locations will result in
      profitable continuing operations on an annualized basis.
    </p>
    <p>
      &#8220;Closing Southern Bullion was a necessary decision, as these locations
      represented approximately 20% of our revenue, but approximately 70% of
      our operating loss,&#8221; commented Dusty Clem, Chairman and Chief Executive
      Officer of DGSE Companies. &#8220;The significant change in the precious metal
      markets, including a 30% decline in the spot price of gold, had a
      disproportionately negative impact on the customer traffic,
      transactional volume and ultimately the profitability of the Southern
      Bullion division. These stores were unable to make the transition from
      gold-buying shops to the full exchange model that characterizes our
      successful operations in Dallas, Charleston and Chicago.&#8221;
    </p>
    <p>
      Mr. Clem continued, &#8220;By eliminating ongoing losses, we expect to return
      the Company to profitability and create a stable footing for sustainable
      growth. We also believe this sets the stage for potential strategic
      opportunities in the future. While this decision was difficult because
      it negatively affected a large part of our corporate family, the result
      is clearly positive for our shareholders. I have never been more
      confident about the future potential for DGSE than I am today.&#8221;
    </p>
    <p>
      The Company expects to report approximately $3.7 million in 2014 in
      non-recurring charges related to these closures. This includes
      approximately $2.9 million in expected write-offs related to the
      Southern Bullion trade name, approximately $400,000 in expected fixed
      asset write-downs, and approximately $500,000 in expected lease
      termination expenses, severance payments and other related costs. The
      inventory from the Southern Bullion locations will be utilized
      throughout the Company&#8217;s remaining 12 locations.
