FISCAL 2005 SECOND QUARTER NET INCOME AND EPS<BR>
Total Store Network Grows 10% in Last 12 Months</B>



<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;DALLAS (January&nbsp;20, 2005)&#151;ACE Cash Express, Inc. (NASDAQ:AACE) announced diluted earnings
per share of $0.42 for its fiscal 2005 second quarter ended December&nbsp;31, 2004, a 24&nbsp;percent
increase over its diluted earnings per share of $0.34 in the second quarter of fiscal 2004. Net
income of $5.8&nbsp;million in the second quarter of fiscal 2005 increased 57&nbsp;percent from $3.7&nbsp;million
in the second quarter of fiscal 2004.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;During the second quarter of fiscal 2005, ACE&#146;s total revenue increased 9&nbsp;percent to $64.7
million versus $59.2&nbsp;million in the prior year period. This increase is primarily due to a 20
percent increase in loan fees and interest and a 19&nbsp;percent increase in bill payment services.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&#147;ACE&#146;s second quarter financial performance was excellent and is representative of our ability
to continue to meet the needs of our customers and the large under-banked consumer marketplace,&#148;
said Jay B. Shipowitz, President and CEO. &#147;Over 10&nbsp;million customers visited our stores seeking our
diversified financial service offerings. We continue to generate strong comparable sales growth
driven by loan fees, which increased 14&nbsp;percent and bill payment services, which rose 16&nbsp;percent,
during the second quarter.&#148;

<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;ACE Cash Express, Inc. is a leading retailer of financial services, including check cashing,
short-term consumer loans and bill payment services, and the largest owner, operator and franchisor
of check cashing stores in the United States. As of January&nbsp;4, 2005, ACE had a network of 1,327
