FORTEGRA FINANCIAL CORPORATION REPORTS FOURTH QUARTER AND FULL YEAR 2013 RESULTS
      
Jacksonville, FL - March 10, 2014 - Fortegra Financial Corporation (NYSE: FRF), an insurance services company offering a wide array of revenue enhancing products, including payment protection products, motor club memberships, service contracts, device and warranty services, and administration services, to our business partners, including insurance companies, retailers, dealers, insurance brokers and agents and financial services companies, reported its results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2013.
  
Completed the sale of Bliss & Glennon, Inc. ("B&G") and eReinsure.com, Inc. ("eReinsure") to AmWINS Holdings, LLC for gross proceeds of $83.5 million on December 31, 2013 (the "Disposition"), which resulted in an $8.8 million gain on sale, net of tax.

Debt was reduced by $77.5 million, and goodwill and other intangible assets were reduced by a combined $70.0 million, on December 31, 2013 as a result of the Disposition.
 
Net income for the full year 2013 was $22.7 million compared to $15.2 million for the full year 2012. Diluted earnings per share were $1.11 in 2013 compared to $0.74 in 2012.

Net income from continuing operations before non-controlling interests was $3.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2013 compared to $3.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2012.

Fourth quarter 2013 diluted earnings per share from continuing operations were $0.16 compared to $0.17 in the fourth quarter of 2012.

Direct and assumed written premiums for the fourth quarter 2013 rose 17.6% compared to the same period in 2012, and for the full year ended December 31, 2013 increased 11.5% to $410.2 million from $367.8 million for 2012.

Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations for the year ended December 31, 2013 increased 14.0% to $34.3 million, compared with $30.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2012.

"We see 2013 as a transformational year in our company’s history and one that will be viewed as a critical turning point towards our future success. We started the year having just acquired two exceptional companies, ProtectCELL and 4Warranty, and we finished the year with the sale of B&G and eReinsure. As a result of the Disposition, we de-leveraged our balance sheet by paying off the debt under our primary credit facility, and shifted our complete focus to our higher margin product and service offerings. Fortegra is more streamlined and integrated than ever before and our new operating structure will provide us increased efficiency and business flexibility. In the quarter, we took swift action to win over payment protection customers in response to the announcement of a major competitor’s decision to exit a segment of the payment protection market, which created a sizeable market opportunity for us," said Richard S. Kahlbaugh, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of Fortegra. "Moreover, we continued to see strong premium growth in our payment protection products, and while regulatory pressures in our Motor Clubs remain, our ProtectCell products had another strong revenue quarter. Last, we are

pleased with the early performance of our recently introduced products, and we anticipate these new products will provide meaningful revenue growth in 2014."

Discontinued Operations and Revision of Business Segments
In connection with the Disposition, the financial results of the disposed businesses are reported as discontinued operations in the Consolidated Statements of Income. Fortegra also realigned its reporting structure to manage its ongoing business as a single profit center, and reports financial results from continuing operations in one reportable segment for all periods presented.

Fourth Quarter Results
Total revenues from continuing operations increased $28.9 million, or 45.4%, to $92.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2013, compared to $63.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2012. Net revenues, which are comprised of total revenues less net losses and loss adjustment expenses, member benefit claims, and commission expenses, increased $5.8 million, or 25.6%, to $28.2 million for the quarter compared to $22.5 million for the prior-year period. Operating expenses, which are comprised of personnel costs and other operating expenses, increased $4.7 million, or 32.2%, to $19.1 million for the quarter compared to $14.5 million for the prior-year period. Income from continuing operations before non-controlling interests for the quarter increased $0.3 million, or 7.3%, to $3.9 million from $3.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2012, principally a result of the expansion of our warranty service contracts through ProtectCELL and 4Warranty.

Net income attributable to Fortegra Financial Corporation, including discontinued operations, for the three months ended December 31, 2013 increased $8.8 million, or 232.0%, to $12.6 million from $3.8 million for the three months ended December 31, 2012. Earnings per diluted share attributable to Fortegra Financial Corporation, including discontinued operations, increased 244.4% to $0.62 for the three months ended December 31, 2013 from $0.18 for the same period in 2012. Our 2013 results include the $8.8 million gain, net of tax, or $0.43 per diluted share, from the Disposition. Non-GAAP earnings per share from continuing operations on a diluted basis were $0.18 and $0.20 for the three months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Full Year 2013 Results
Total revenues from continuing operations increased $91.5 million, or 35.7%, to $347.9 million for the full year 2013, compared to $256.3 million for the full year 2012. Net revenues increased $22.9 million, or 27.7%, to $105.7 million for 2013 compared to $82.7 million for 2012. Operating expenses increased $21.9 million, or 41.5%, to $74.6 million for 2013 compared to $52.7 million for 2012. These increases resulted principally from the expansion of our warranty products through ProtectCELL and 4Warranty. Income from continuing operations before non-controlling interests for the year ended December 31, 2013 decreased $1.2 million, or 8.9%, to $11.8 million from $13.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2012. This decrease resulted from $0.8 million of expense due to the previously announced plan to consolidate certain functions within our operations in 2013, while our 2012 results included a $1.0 million benefit from a change in accounting estimate

Net income attributable to Fortegra Financial Corporation, including discontinued operations, for the year ended December 31, 2013 increased $7.6 million, or 49.8%, to $22.7 million from $15.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2012. Earnings per diluted share attributable to Fortegra Financial Corporation, including discontinued operations, increased 50% to $1.11 for the year ended December 31, 2013 from $0.74 for the same period in 2012. Our 2013 results include the impact of the $8.8 million gain, net of tax, or $0.43 per diluted share, from the Disposition, while 2012 included a $1.0 million benefit from a change in accounting estimate, or $0.05 per diluted share. Non-GAAP earnings per share from continuing operations on a diluted basis were $0.61 and $0.67 for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information
We present certain additional financial measures related to our business that are "Non-GAAP measures" within the meaning of Regulation G under the Securities Act of 1934. We present these Non-GAAP measures to provide investors with additional information to analyze our performance from period to period.  Management also uses these measures to assess performance and to allocate resources in managing our businesses.  However, investors should not consider these Non-GAAP measures as a substitute for the financial information that we report in accordance with GAAP.  These Non-GAAP measures reflect subjective determinations by management, and may differ from similarly titled Non-GAAP measures presented by other companies.

In this Earnings Release, we present Net income from continuing operations - Non-GAAP Basis, Non-GAAP Earnings per share from continuing operations - basic and diluted, , Net revenue, Operating expenses, EBITDA from continuing operations and Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations. These financial measures as presented in this Earnings Release are considered Non-GAAP financial measures and are not recognized terms under U.S. GAAP and should not be used as an indicator of, and are not an alternative to, net income or earnings per share as a measure of operating performance. Net income from continuing operations - Non-GAAP Basis as used in this Earnings Release, generally means net income adjusted (on a tax-effected basis) by transaction costs associated with acquisitions, stock-based compensation, restructuring expenses, and unusual or non-recurring

Page 3



charges and items that affect comparability of results. Non-GAAP earnings per share from continuing operations - basic and diluted as presented in this Earnings Release adjust for the impact of the Non-GAAP adjustments to net income, net of tax, on a per share basis. Net revenues as used in this Earnings Release is total revenues less net losses and loss adjustment expenses, member benefit claims, and commission expenses. Operating expense as used in this Earnings Release is the sum of personnel costs and other operating expenses. EBITDA from continuing operations as used in this Earnings Release is net income before interest expense, income taxes, net income attributable to non-controlling interests, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations as used in this Earnings Release means "Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA", which is defined under our credit facility with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. and which generally means consolidated net income before net income attributable to non-controlling interests, consolidated interest expense, consolidated amortization expense, consolidated depreciation expense and consolidated income tax expense, relating to continuing operations. The other items excluded in this calculation may include if applicable, but are not limited to, specified acquisition costs, impairment of goodwill and other non-cash charges, stock-based compensation expense, and unusual or non-recurring charges and items that affect comparability of results. The calculation below does not give effect to certain additional adjustments permitted under our credit facility, which if included, would increase the amount of Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations reflected in this table. We believe presenting Net Income from continuing operations - Non-GAAP Basis, Non-GAAP Earnings per share from continuing operations - basic and diluted, Net revenue, Operating expenses, EBITDA from continuing operations and Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations provides investors with a supplemental financial measure of our operating performance.
In addition to the financial covenant requirements under our credit facility, management uses Net Income from continuing operations - Non-GAAP Basis, Non-GAAP Earnings per share from continuing operations - basic and diluted, Net revenues, Operating expenses, EBITDA from continuing operations and Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations as financial measures of operating performance for planning purposes, which may include, but are not limited to, the preparation of budgets and projections, the determination of bonus compensation for executive officers, the analysis of the allocation of resources and the evaluation of the effectiveness of business strategies. We measure Net revenue as another means of understanding product contributions to our results. We measure Operating expenses to reconcile from Net revenues to EBITDA. Although we use EBITDA from continuing operations and Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations as financial measures to assess the operating performance of our business, both measures have significant limitations as analytical tools because they exclude certain material expenses. For example, they do not include interest expense and the payment of income taxes, which are both necessary elements of our costs and operations. Since we use property and equipment to generate revenues, depreciation expense is a necessary element of our costs. In addition, the omission of amortization expense associated with our intangible assets further limits the usefulness of this financial measure. Management believes the inclusion of the adjustments to EBITDA from continuing operations to derive Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations are appropriate to provide additional information to investors about certain material non-cash items and about unusual items that we do not expect to continue at the same level in the future. Because EBITDA from continuing operations and Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations do not account for these expenses, their utility as financial measures of our operating performance has material limitations. Due to these limitations, management does not view EBITDA from continuing operations and Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations in isolation or as primary financial performance measures.
We believe Net Income from continuing operations - Non-GAAP Basis, Non-GAAP Earnings per share from continuing operations - basic and diluted, EBITDA from continuing operations and Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of similar companies in similar industries and to measure the company's ability to service its debt and other cash needs. Because the definitions of Net Income from continuing operations - Non-GAAP Basis, Non-GAAP Earnings per share from continuing operations - basic and diluted, EBITDA from continuing operations and Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations (or similar financial measures) may vary among companies and industries, they may not be comparable to other similarly titled financial measures used by other companies.
