Canaccord Genuity Group Inc. discloses transaction in own shares under normal
course issuer bid/buy-back programme, Cancellation of shares and total voting
rights

TORONTO, Sept. 1, 2015 /CNW/ - Canaccord Genuity Group Inc. (the "Company")
(TSX: CF, LSE: CF.) wishes to announce that for the period of August 24, 2015,
to August 31, 2015, it purchased 26,000 of its common shares through the
facilities of the TSX and alternative trading systems pursuant to the normal
course issuer bid (NCIB)/buy-back programme announced on August 10, 2015.

The highest and lowest daily average price paid for the purchased shares was
$5.9894 and $5.3876 per common share respectively and the volume weighted
average price per common share was $5.6640.

The Company purchased 1,075,432 common shares under the NCIB which authorized
it to purchase up to 5,100,049 of its common shares between August 13, 2014 and
August 12, 2015. The Company has so far purchased 128,567 common shares under
the renewed NCIB/buy-back programme which authorizes it to purchase up to
5,163,736 of its common shares between August 13, 2015 and August 12, 2016. Of
the shares purchased under both NCIBs, 259,550 common shares were cancelled
effective as of August 31, 2015, and therefore (taken with shares previously
cancelled) all but 11,000 have been cancelled; these 11,000 shares will be held
in treasury until they are cancelled within the next 60 days.

In addition, the Company holds in its treasury 718,675 common shares acquired
by wholly-owned subsidiaries from employees or former employees in accordance
with pre-existing contractual arrangements.

For the purposes of the Financial Conduct Authority's Disclosure and
Transparency Rules, the Company announces that, as at August 31, 2015, the
total number of common shares in issue was 103,070,869. The Company is not
entitled to vote the shares held in treasury but the common shares otherwise
each carry the right to one vote. The figure 102,341,194 (the difference of the
total number of common shares in issue less the number of shares held in
treasury) may therefore be used by shareholders in the Company as the
denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are
required to notify their interest in, or a change in their interest in, the
share capital of the Company under the FCA's Disclosure and Transparency Rules.
