</TABLE> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>May&nbsp;7, 2015 </B>&#150; Clearwater, Florida - Nicholas Financial, Inc. (NASDAQ: NICK) announced that for the three
months ended March&nbsp;31, 2015, diluted earnings per share increased 43% to $0.33 as compared to $0.23 for the three months ended March&nbsp;31, 2014. Net earnings increased 35% to $3,848,000 as compared to $2,860,000 for the three months ended
March&nbsp;31, 2014. Revenue increased 7% to $21,934,000 for the three months ended March&nbsp;31, 2015 as compared to $20,443,000 for the three months ended March&nbsp;31, 2014. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">For the year ended March&nbsp;31, 2015, diluted earnings per share increased 1% to $1.38 as compared to $1.36 for the year ended March&nbsp;31, 2014. Net
earnings increased 1% to $16,856,000 as compared to $16,703,000 for the year ended March&nbsp;31, 2014. Revenue increased 5% to $86,790,000 for the year ended March&nbsp;31, 2015 as compared to $82,629,000 for the year ended March&nbsp;31, 2014.
</P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Our results for the three and twelve months ended March&nbsp;31, 2015 were adversely affected by reductions in the gross portfolio yield and increases in
the provision for losses compared to the three and twelve months ended March&nbsp;31,&nbsp;2014. While we increased our purchases and overall revenue as well as diluted earnings per share, aggressive competition in the industry has negatively
impacted our weighted APR and average discount rate, and increased our weighted average term. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Our results for the three months ended March&nbsp;31, 2015
were positively impacted by a reduction in professional fees associated with the previously announced potential sale of the Company. Such fees were principally related to fiscal 2014 and resulted in a higher effective tax rate as the majority were
not deductible for income tax purposes. The impact on diluted earnings per share of such professional fees totaling $1,131,000 was a reduction of approximately $0.09 for the three months ended March&nbsp;31, 2014. Our three-month diluted earnings
per share also were favorably impacted by $0.02 for the tender offer that occurred on March&nbsp;13,&nbsp;2015, and negatively impacted by $0.01 as a result of the change in fair value of interest rate swap agreements. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Twelve-month results were further impacted negatively by a change in the fair value of the interest rate swap agreements which resulted in a reduction of
diluted earnings per shares by $0.02 for the twelve months ending March&nbsp;31,&nbsp;2015 in comparison to an increase of diluted earnings per share by $0.04 for the twelve months ending March&nbsp;31,&nbsp;2014. Our results for the twelve months
were favorably impacted by a reduction in professional fees associated with the previously announced potential sale of the Company. The reduction in diluted earnings per share by such professional fees totaling $2,312,000 was approximately $0.18 for
the twelve months ended March&nbsp;31, 2014. Consequently, during the fiscal year 2015, our results were favorably impacted by a reduction in income tax expense and ultimately an impact on diluted earnings per share of $0.06 when such fees became
deductible as a result of the termination of the Arrangement Agreement announced on July&nbsp;1, 2014. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">&#147;In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2015 we
began purchasing installment contracts in the state of Texas and plan on opening branch locations during fiscal 2016. The number of locations that we anticipate opening could range from one to four locations depending on market conditions. We will
continue to look at developing additional markets and we may open additional branch locations in these new markets, although no assurances can be given at this time,&#148; stated Ralph T. Finkenbrink, President and CEO. </P>
