Rifco Releases Annual Objectives

Red Deer, AB / ACCESSWIRE / June 11, 2014 / Rifco Inc. (TSX.V-RFC) is pleased to announce its specific objectives for the upcoming year.

Rifco's custom is to set and report on specific measurable objectives annually. For the fiscal year ending March 31, 2015, the following objectives have been set. Progress towards these objectives will be updated in each quarterly report.

2015 Objectives

• - Achieve Record Originations of over $170 million. Growth rate of 35%

  - Achieve Record Finance Receivables of over $278 million. Growth rate of 39%

  - Achieve Record Revenue of over $39.5 million. Growth rate of 31%

  - Achieve Record Earnings Per Share of $0.43. Growth rate of 41%

  - Achieve an Average (12 month rolling) Credit Loss rate below 3.55%.

It is the goal of Rifco to deliver a loan origination growth rate of between 30% and 50% per year. We believe this average growth rate is achievable with increasing levels of profit as a result of our strong ROA.

In 2014, we delivered loan origination growth of 39%, exceeding our target of 32%.
