Nasdaq: DVCR Investor Update As of September 30, 2017

Nasdaq: DVCR Forward-looking statements made in this presentation involve a number of risks and uncertainties, but not limited to: as well as other risk factors detailed in the Company's Securities and Exchange Commission filings. The Company has provided additional information in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016, as well as in other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which readers are encouraged to review for further disclosure of other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements. Forward-Looking Statements 2  the outcome of proceedings alleging violations of state or Federal False Claims Acts  our ability to increase patients served at our renovated centers  our ability to successfully integrate the operations of our new nursing centers in Alabama and Mississippi, as well as successfully operate all of our centers  laws and regulations governing quality of care or other laws and regulations applicable to our business including laws governing reimbursement from government payers  changes in governmental reimbursement  changes in occupancy rates in our centers  the impact of the recently adopted federal health care reform or any future healthcare reform  changes in anticipated revenue and cost growth and the anticipated results of operations  any increases in the cost of borrowing under our credit agreements  our ability to comply with covenants contained in those credit agreements  our ability to renew real estate investment trust leases under reasonable terms  the accuracy of our estimate of our anticipated professional liability expense  the outcome of professional liability lawsuits and claims  our ability to control ultimate professional liability costs  the costs of investing in our business initiatives and development  Our ability to control costs  the impact of future licensing surveys  the effect of changes in accounting policies  changing economic and competitive conditions  changes to our valuation of deferred tax assets

Nasdaq: DVCR Non-GAAP Information This presentation contains certain non-GAAP financial measures, including, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDAR. EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure which consists of net (loss) income before interest, income taxes, and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA, also a non-GAAP financial measure, is EBITDA adjusted to add back non-recurring items such as (i) acquisition related costs, (ii) lease termination costs and (iii) gain on the sale of an unconsolidated affiliate. Adjusted EBITDAR is Adjusted EBITDA adjusted to add back lease expense. Our presentation of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDAR should not be construed as an implication that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items. The presentation of the non-GAAP financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for any measure prepared in accordance with GAAP. Because non-GAAP financial measures presented in this presentation are not measurements determined in accordance with GAAP and are susceptible to varying calculations, these non-GAAP financial measures, as presented, may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures presented by other companies. Diversicare believes that these non-GAAP financial measures facilitate making period-to-period comparisons and are meaningful indications of its operating performance. We have also presented Adjusted EBITDA in this presentation because we believe it is useful to provide investors and other users of our financial statements this performance measure to align with how management assesses our results of operations. A reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measure is included in the attached Appendix A to this presentation. 3

Nasdaq: DVCR Risks to the Industry and the Company A number of risks may impact the Industry in general and the Company in particular, including litigation risks and Government reimbursement/regulation risks. Litigation Risks include: • The provision of health care services results in numerous professional liability claims. As of September 30, 2017, the Company had 71 professional liability lawsuits pending against it, many of which are substantially self-insured; thus, the Company has significant potential professional liability exposure. • The Industry is subject to extensive regulatory scrutiny and lawsuits alleging violations of the False Claims Act. The Company is currently defending an investigation relating to its therapy services arising from a false claims lawsuit and an investigation related to the completion of preadmission evaluation forms required by the Tennessee Medicaid Program. • The Company is the subject of a purported class action lawsuit against one of its former Arkansas facilities seeking damages for alleged chronic understaffing. 12

Nasdaq: DVCR Risks to the Industry and the Company Government Reimbursement Risks include: • In recent years, there have been initiatives on the federal and state levels for comprehensive reforms affecting the availability, payment and reimbursement of healthcare services in the United States. The Industry is subject to ongoing health care reform which is likely to continue to affect the provision of healthcare services and may require changes in the way the Company conducts its business. • The Industry, as well as the Company, is primarily dependent upon reimbursement from third-party payors, including the Medicare and Medicaid programs. Significant reductions in the reimbursements provided by these programs and other changes have been proposed that would, if implemented, negatively impact the Company’s net revenues, net income and cash flows. • The health care industry is subject to numerous laws and regulations of federal, state and local governments. These laws and regulations include, but are not necessarily limited to, matters such as licensure, accreditation, government health care program participation requirements, protection of patient health information, reimbursement for patient services, quality of patient care and Medicare and Medicaid fraud and abuse. The Company must comply with these increased regulations in order to qualify for reimbursement under Medicare and Medicaid Programs. 13
