NEWS RELEASE

ARTHUR J. GALLAGHER�& CO. ANNOUNCES

THIRD QUARTER 2014 FINANCIAL RESULTS

ITASCA, IL, October�28, 2014 � Arthur J. Gallagher�& Co. (NYSE: AJG) today reported its financial results for the quarter and nine-month period ended September�30, 2014. A printer-friendly format and supplemental quarterly data is available at www.ajg.com. For a description of the non-GAAP measures used to report financial results in this earnings release, please see �Information Regarding Non-GAAP Measures� beginning on page 7.

�We had an excellent quarter on all measures,� said J. Patrick Gallagher, Jr., Chairman, President and CEO. �Our combined Brokerage and Risk Management segments posted 38% growth in adjusted revenues, of which 7.1% was total organic growth. Our adjusted EBITDAC was up 43% and adjusted net earnings per share grew 15%. We also improved our adjusted EBITDAC margins 80�basis points compared to the third quarter of 2013.�

�

Our Brokerage segment posted adjusted revenue growth of 45%, of which 5.8% was total organic. Our adjusted EBITDAC was up 46%, and we improved our adjusted EBITDAC margin 24�basis points compared to the third quarter of 2013 overcoming approximately 70�basis points of margin compression from seasonality inherent in our recent larger merger operations as discussed in our second quarter conference call.

�

Our Risk Management segment posted organic revenue growth of 11.7%. We improved our adjusted EBITDAC margin 96 basis points compared to the third quarter of 2013, and we substantially surpassed our 16% margin target by approximately 80 basis points.

�

Net earnings from our clean energy investments were up 144% compared to the third quarter of 2013.

�The integration of our larger mergers continues as planned and on schedule and we are continuing our proven strategy of smaller tuck-in mergers. Large or small, our teams are melding quickly and our combined capabilities are creating game-changing sales opportunities around the world. In the rating environment, we continue to see evidence that insurance pricing is rational and we are not seeing evidence of the carriers having any appetite for large rate swings seen in the past. We believe this is a healthy and sustainable environment for our customers, the brokers and the carriers.�

The following provides information that management believes is helpful when comparing 2014 revenues, EBITDAC and diluted net earnings per share with the same periods in 2013:

Third quarter 2014 base commission and fee organic growth was favorably impacted by net larger account sales activity which is not consistent with historical patterns and may not repeat in the future. Base commission and fee organic growth would have been approximately 4% if net larger account sales activity was more consistent with historical patterns.

Adjusted third quarter EBITDAC margin was 0.2�pts higher than the same period in 2013. This ratio was primarily impacted by seasonally lower overall EBITDAC margins of the combined four larger recent acquisitions of Giles, Oval, Crombie/OAMPS and Noraxis that reduced overall margin by 0.7�pts and higher overall EBITDAC margins of Gallagher�s other businesses of 0.9�pts.

�

Acquisition integration costs were primarily related to the on-boarding of over 4,700 employees related to the Bollinger, Giles, Oval, Crombie/OAMPS and Noraxis acquisitions, communication system conversion costs and related performance compensation. Integration costs in third quarter 2013 relate to the Heath Lambert and Bollinger acquisitions only.

Debt, interest and banking � At September�30, 2014, Gallagher had $2,125.0�million of borrowings from private placements and $147.0�million of short-term borrowings under its line of credit facility. On June�16, 2014 we entered into a revolving loan facility that provides funding for the three acquired Australian and New Zealand premium finance subsidiaries. This facility comprises four tranches which total approximately $195.0�million, of which $149.2�million was outstanding at September�30, 2014.

At-the-market equity program � Gallagher has an at-the-market equity program under which it may sell up to $196.0�million of its common stock through Morgan Stanley�& Co. LLC as sales agent. During third quarter 2014, Gallagher did not sell shares of its common stock under the program.

Clean energy investments � The following provides certain information related to Gallagher�s investments in limited liability companies that own 34 clean coal production plants, which produce refined coal using proprietary technologies owned by Chem-Mod. We believe that the production and sale of refined coal at these plants qualifies to receive refined coal tax credits under IRC Section�45 through 2019 for the fourteen 2009 Era Plants and through 2021 for the twenty 2011 Era Plants. The underlying operations of those investments where Gallagher has a controlling ownership interest are consolidated.

Reflects management�s current best estimate of the ultimate future potential annual after-tax earnings based on production estimates from the host utilities. However, host utilities do not consistently utilize the refined fuel plants at ultimate production levels due to seasonal electricity demand, as well as for many other operational, regulatory and environmental compliance reasons.

Corporate Segment Third Quarter Highlights (continued)

Gallagher�s investment in Chem-Mod generates royalty income from clean energy plants owned by those limited liability companies in which it invests as well as refined coal production plants owned by other unrelated parties. Based on current production estimates provided by licensees, Chem-Mod could generate for Gallagher an average of approximately $4.0�million of net after-tax earnings per quarter.

All estimates set forth above regarding the potential future earnings impact of our clean energy investments are subject to significant risks. Please refer to Gallagher�s filings with the SEC, including Item�1A, �Risk Factors,� of its Annual Report on Form�10-K for the fiscal year ended December�31, 2013 and our prospectus supplement filed on April�11, 2014, for a more detailed discussion of these and other factors that could impact the information above.

Acquisition costs � Consists mostly of external professional fees and other due diligence costs related to acquisitions.

Corporate � Consists of overhead allocations mostly related to corporate staff compensation. Gallagher expects to incur a non-cash settlement charge in the fourth quarter of 2014 related to a pension plan de-risking strategy that is more fully discussed in Note�3 on page�15 of the supplemental quarterly data that is available at www.ajg.com.

Income Taxes

Gallagher allocates the provision for income taxes to its Brokerage and Risk Management segments using the local country statutory rates. Gallagher historically has reported, and anticipates reporting for the foreseeable future, an effective tax rate of approximately 35% to 37% in both its Brokerage and Risk Management segments. Gallagher�s consolidated effective tax rate for the quarter ended September�30, 2014 and 2013 was (6.7)% and 12.7%, respectively. Gallagher�s tax rate for the quarter ended September�30, 2014 was lower than the statutory rate and was lower than 2013 due to the amount of IRC Section�45 tax credits earned in 2014 compared to 2013.

Webcast Conference Call

Gallagher will host a webcast conference call on Wednesday, October�29, 2014 at 9:00 a.m. ET/8:00 a.m. CT. To listen to this call, please go to www.ajg.com. The call will be available for replay at such website for not less than 90 days.

Information Regarding Non-GAAP Measures

In addition to reporting financial results in accordance with GAAP, this press release provides information regarding EBITDAC, EBITDAC margin, adjusted EBITDAC, adjusted EBITDAC margin, diluted net earnings per share (as adjusted) for the Brokerage and Risk Management segments, adjusted revenues, adjusted compensation and operating expenses, adjusted compensation expense ratio, adjusted operating expense ratio and organic revenue measures for each operating segment.�These measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative to, the GAAP information provided in this press release.�Gallagher�s management believes that these presentations provide useful information to management, analysts and investors regarding financial and business trends relating to Gallagher�s results of operations and financial condition.�Gallagher�s industry peers may provide similar supplemental non-GAAP information related to organic revenues and EBITDAC, although they may not use the same or comparable terminology and may not make identical adjustments.�The non-GAAP information provided by Gallagher should be used in addition to, but not as a substitute for, the GAAP information provided.�Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior year amounts reported in this press release in order to conform them to the current year presentation.

Adjusted presentation � Gallagher believes that the adjusted presentations of the current and prior year information, presented in this earnings release, provides stockholders and other interested persons with useful information regarding certain financial metrics of Gallagher that may assist such persons in analyzing Gallagher�s operating results as they develop a future earnings outlook for Gallagher. The after-tax amounts related to the adjustments were computed using the normalized effective tax rate for each respective period.

�

Adjusted revenues and expenses � Gallagher defines these measures as revenues, compensation expense and operating expense, respectively, each adjusted to exclude net gains realized from sales of books of business, acquisition integration costs, claim portfolio transfer and South Australia ramp up fees/costs, workforce related charges, lease termination related charges, acquisition related adjustments and the impact of foreign currency translation, as applicable. Integration costs include costs related to transactions not expected to occur on an ongoing basis in the future once we fully assimilate the applicable acquisition.�These costs are typically associated with redundant workforce, extra lease space, duplicate services and external costs incurred to assimilate the acquisition with our IT related systems.

�

Adjusted ratios � Adjusted compensation expense ratio and adjusted operating expense ratio are defined as adjusted compensation expense and adjusted operating expense, respectively, each divided by adjusted revenues.

Earnings Measures � Gallagher believes that each of EBITDAC, EBITDAC margin, adjusted EBITDAC, adjusted EBITDAC margin and diluted net earnings per share (as adjusted) for the Brokerage and Risk Management segments, as defined below, provides a meaningful representation of its operating performance.�Gallagher considers EBITDAC and EBITDAC margin as a way to measure financial performance on an ongoing basis.�Adjusted EBITDAC, adjusted EBITDAC margin and diluted net earnings per share (as adjusted) for the Brokerage and Risk Management segments are presented to improve the comparability of our results between periods by eliminating the impact of the items that have a high degree of variability.

�

EBITDAC � Gallagher defines this measure as net earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation, amortization and the change in estimated acquisition earnout payables.

�

EBITDAC margin � Gallagher defines this measure as EBITDAC divided by total revenues.

�

Adjusted EBITDAC � Gallagher defines this measure as EBITDAC adjusted to exclude net gains realized from sales of books of business, acquisition integration costs, workforce related charges, lease termination related charges, claim portfolio transfer and South Australia ramp up fees/costs, acquisition related adjustments and the period-over-period impact of foreign currency translation, as applicable.

�

Adjusted EBITDAC margin � Gallagher defines this measure as adjusted EBITDAC divided by total adjusted revenues (defined above).

�

Diluted net earnings per share (as adjusted) for the Brokerage and Risk Management segments � Gallagher defines this measure as net earnings adjusted to exclude the after-tax impact of net gains realized from sales of books of business, acquisition integration costs, claim portfolio transfer and South Australia ramp up fees/costs, the impact of foreign currency translation, workforce related charges, lease termination related charges, acquisition related adjustments and effective income tax rate impact divided by diluted weighted average shares outstanding. The effective income tax rate impact represents the difference in income tax expense for tax amounts derived using the actual effective tax rate compared to tax amounts derived using a normalized effective tax rate.

�

(7 of 11)

Organic Revenues � For the Brokerage segment, organic change in base commission and fee revenues excludes the first twelve months of net commission and fee revenues generated from acquisitions accounted for as purchases and the net commission and fee revenues related to operations disposed of in each year presented.�These commissions and fees are excluded from organic revenues in order to help interested persons analyze the revenue growth associated with the operations that were a part of Gallagher in both the current and prior year.�In addition, change in base commission and fee organic growth excludes the impact of supplemental commission and contingent commission revenues and the period-over-period impact of foreign currency translation. The amounts excluded with respect to foreign currency translation are calculated by applying current year foreign exchange rates to the same periods in the prior year. For the Risk Management segment, organic change in fee revenues excludes the first twelve months of fee revenues generated from acquisitions accounted for as purchases and the fee revenues related to operations disposed of in each year presented. In addition, change in organic growth excludes the impact of South Australia ramp-up fees and the period-over-period impact of foreign currency translation to improve the comparability of our results between periods by eliminating the impact of the items that have a high degree of variability or are due to the limited-time nature of these revenue sources.

These revenue items are excluded from organic revenues in order to determine a comparable measurement of revenue growth that is associated with the revenue sources that are expected to continue in the current year and beyond.�Gallagher has historically viewed organic revenue growth as an important indicator when assessing and evaluating the performance of its Brokerage and Risk Management segments.�Gallagher also believes that using this measure allows readers of our financial statements to measure, analyze and compare the growth from its Brokerage and Risk Management segments in a meaningful and consistent manner.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Information Presented to GAAP Measures � This press release includes tabular reconciliations to the most comparable GAAP measures, as follows: for EBITDAC (on�page 9), for adjusted revenues, adjusted EBITDAC and adjusted diluted net earnings per share (on pages 1 and 2), for organic revenue measures (on pages 2 and�4, respectively, for the Brokerage and Risk Management segments), for adjusted compensation and operating expenses and adjusted EBITDAC margin (on pages 3 and 4, respectively, for the Brokerage and Risk Management segments). Reported compensation and operating expense ratios can be found in the supplemental quarterly data available at www.ajg.com.
