Q1 2016 Investor Presentation

Legal Disclaimer This presentation contains "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All statements contained in this presentation that do not relate to matters of historical facts should be considered forward-looking statements, including statements regarding our expectations regarding growth of our end-markets; projected U.S. construction growth rate and spending and projected U.S. rental industry revenue growth rate; estimated exposure to the oil and gas industry; our business strategy, including our plan to identify new customers, equipment demand opportunities, greenfield opportunities, and investment and divestiture opportunities; our 2016 outlook, including without limitation, statements regarding our forecasted revenue, Adjusted EBITDA, our expected rental rates, time utilization and net capital expenditures; and guidance regarding our 2016 target leverage ratio. We use words such as "will," "expect," "believe," "continue," "estimate," "intend," "target" and other similar expressions to identify some but not all forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements involve estimates and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements contained in this presentation are based on assumptions that we have made in light of our industry experience and our perceptions of historical trends, current conditions, current plans, expected future developments and other important factors we believe are appropriate under the circumstances. As you read and consider this presentation, you should understand that these statements are not guarantees of performance or results. They involve risks, uncertainties (many of which are beyond our control) and assumptions. Although we believe that these forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, you should be aware that many important factors could affect our actual operating and financial performance and cause our performance to differ materially from the performance anticipated in the forward-looking statements. We believe these important factors include, but are not limited to, the important factors described under the captions "Risk Factors" and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on March 8, 2016 and similar disclosures in subsequent reports filed with the SEC, which could cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated by the forward-looking statements made in this presentation. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should any of these assumptions prove incorrect, our actual operating and financial performance may vary in material respects from the performance projected in these forward-looking statements. Further, any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made, and except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement contained in this presentation to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which it is made or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events or circumstances. New important factors that could cause our business not to develop as we expect emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all of them. In addition to the financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ( US GAAP ), this presentation contains the non-us GAAP financial measures EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA. The reasons for the use of these measures, a reconciliation of these measures to the most directly comparable US GAAP measures and other information relating to these measures are included in the appendix to this presentation. 2

Fleet Overview Neff s Fleet in Focus as of March 31, 2016 Fleet Breakdown (% of OEC) as of March 31, 2016 OEC of ~$796.3 million Neff has invested ~$745 million in its fleet since 2011 (1) Average age of Neff s fleet has been reduced from ~55 months in 2011 to ~45 months as of March 31, 2016 Average age of Earthmoving fleet: ~38 months Fleet includes ~14,500 units of equipment, of which over 5,600 are earthmoving related Trucks, 5.7% Aerial, 12.0% Concrete / Compaction, 6.0% Material Handling, 17.2% Other, 5.5% Earthmoving, 53.6% Why Earthmoving? Utilized at the initial stages of the construction process, and throughout the duration of most construction projects Large and active end-markets (e.g., infrastructure, non-residential construction, residential construction, and oil & gas) and these customer segments require significant earthmoving assets Customers value and want specialized earthmoving expertise every project is different and requires the right combination of equipment, implements, and advice Earthmoving penetration is relatively low at ~51%. With aerial and material handling at ~96% and ~84% rental penetration, respectively, we believe the future growth in industry penetration will likely come from the earthmoving category (2) Earthmoving equipment retains a strong resale value and has a highly liquid secondary market Note: (1) Defined as rental fleet purchases from January 2011 to March 2016 (2) Yengst Associates Market Machinery Research Report, dated June 2015 9

Appendix

Reconciliation of Net Income to Adjusted EBITDA EBITDA" is defined as net (loss) income plus interest expense, provision for (benefit from) income taxes, depreciation of rental equipment, other depreciation and amortization and amortization of debt issue costs. "Adjusted EBITDA" is defined as EBITDA further adjusted to give effect to other items that we do not consider to be indicative of our ongoing operations, including for the periods presented loss on extinguishment of debt, transaction bonus, rental split expense, equity-based compensation, adjustment to tax receivable agreement and loss on interest rate swap. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not measures of performance in accordance with US GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net (loss) income or operating cash flows determined in accordance with US GAAP. Additionally, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not intended to be measures of cash flow for management's discretionary use, as they exclude certain cash requirements such as interest payments, tax payments and debt service requirements. We believe that the inclusion of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA in this investor presentation is appropriate because securities analysts, investors and other interested parties use these non-us GAAP financial measures as important measures of assessing our operating performance across periods on a consistent basis. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under US GAAP.

Glossary of Terms Net Capital Expenditures: Purchases of rental and non-rental equipment less proceeds from the sale of rental and non-rental equipment. Time Utilization: The daily average OEC of equipment on rent, divided by the OEC of all equipment in the rental fleet during the relevant period. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA: EBITDA is defined as net (loss) income plus interest expense, provision for (benefit from) income taxes, depreciation of rental equipment, other depreciation and amortization and amortization of debt issue costs. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA further adjusted to give effect to other items that Neff does not consider to be indicative of our ongoing operations, including for the periods presented loss on extinguishment of debt, transaction bonus, rental split expense, equity-based compensation, adjustment to tax receivable agreement and loss on interest rate swap. Fleet Age: The OEC weighted age of the entire fleet, excluding the benefit of refurbishments. OEC: The first cost of acquiring the equipment, or in the case of used equipment purchases and rental splits, an estimate of the first cost that would have been paid to acquire the equipment if it had been purchased new in its year of manufacture, as the daily average OEC of equipment on rent, divided by the OEC of all equipment in the rental fleet during the relevant period. Weighted Average Rental Rate Growth: The percentage change in the rate/price that is charged for equipment on rent. Overall company rental rates change based on a combination of pricing, fleet composition and term of rental. This metric is used to evaluate rate changes both year-over-year and sequentially (typically quarter-over-quarter). Rental rate changes are calculated based on the year-over-year or sequential variance in average contract rates, weighted by the prior period revenue mix. Return on invested capital (ROIC): The ROIC metric uses after-tax operating income for the trailing 12 months divided by average stockholders equity (deficit) and debt and deferred taxes, net of average cash and debt issue costs. To mitigate the volatility related to fluctuations in the Company s tax rate from period to period, a federal statutory tax rate of 35% is used to calculate after-tax operating income. 18
