Notes to Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

March 31, 2020

NOTE 1: ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Description of Business

When used in this report, the terms “we,” “us,” “our,” “EZCORP” and the “Company” mean EZCORP, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries, collectively.

We are a leading provider of pawn loans in the United States and Latin America. Pawn loans are non-recourse loans collateralized by tangible property. We also sell merchandise, primarily collateral forfeited from pawn lending operations and used merchandise purchased from customers, and operate a small number of financial services stores in Canada.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. Our management has included all adjustments it considers necessary for a fair presentation and which are of a normal, recurring nature. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation.

The accompanying financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2019. The balance sheet as of September 30, 2019 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements.

Our business is subject to seasonal variations, and operating results for the three and six months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 (the "current quarter" and "current six-months" and "prior-year quarter" and "prior-year six-months," respectively) are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for the full fiscal year.

There have been no changes in significant accounting policies as described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2019, other than those described below and in Note 12.

Use of Estimates and Assumptions

The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and judgments, including those related to revenue recognition, inventories, loan loss allowances, long-lived and intangible assets, share-based compensation, income taxes, contingencies and litigation. We base our estimates on historical experience, observable trends and various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. We use this information to make judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Impact of COVID-19

The novel coronavirus disease known as “COVID-19” was characterized as a worldwide pandemic by the World Health Organization on March 11, 2020. It has significantly disrupted businesses around the world. We began to see the impact of COVID-19 to our operations in mid-March, when the closure of non-essential businesses and the implementation of stay-at-home requirements began in our geographic locations. In the U.S. and Mexico, we have been able to keep most of our stores open for business and operating under enhanced safety measures and restrictions on occupancy. Store closure orders in our GPMX countries (Guatemala, El Salvador, Honduras and Peru) have had a more severe impact on our business.

In addition, we have experienced a significant decline in pawn loan originations and associated loan balances since mid-March as a result of a change in customer borrowing behaviors due to COVID-19. These declines continued into April and are ongoing. See Note 14 (Subsequent Event). This reduced activity resulted in net revenue losses during the current quarter, which were partially offset with a strong increase in merchandise sales during the period.

fiscal 2020, and if it continues, it may have an adverse effect on our results of operations, financial position and liquidity in future periods. We continue to focus on the health and safety of our employees and customers while serving our customers’ needs.

Recently Adopted Accounting Policies

On October 1, 2019, we adopted ASC Topic 842, Leases, which requires companies to generally recognize on the balance sheet operating and financing lease liabilities and corresponding right-of-use assets. We adopted this using the optional prospective transition method provided under ASU 2018-11, Leases, (Topic 842): Targeted Improvement as of October 1, 2019. We additionally elected the package of practical expedients under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 842-10-65-1(f) as well as the practical expedient not to separate lease and non-lease components for all real estate leases under ASC 842-10-15-37. Further, we have elected an accounting policy not to record right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for all leases which have a duration of less than 12-months. See Note 5 for additional discussion.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

•

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments — Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. This ASU, along with subsequently issued related ASUs, requires financial assets (or groups of financial assets) measured at amortized cost basis to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected, among other provisions. A reporting entity should generally apply the amendment on a modified retrospective basis through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the amendment is effective. We have not identified any impacts to our financial statements that we believe will be material as a result of the adoption of the ASU, although we continue to evaluate the impact of adoption. We believe we are following an appropriate timeline to allow for proper recognition, presentation and disclosure upon adoption of this ASU which is effective for the first quarter of our fiscal 2021.

•

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) — Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. This ASU provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference LIBOR or another reference rate. This ASU was issued on of March 12, 2020 and is effective upon issuance through December 31, 2022. We have not identified any impacts to our financial statements that we believe will be material as a result of the adoption of the ASU, although we will continue to evaluate the impact.

Please refer to Note 1 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in "Part II, Item 8 — Financial Statements and Supplementary Data" of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2019 for discussion of our significant accounting policies and other accounting pronouncements issued but not yet adopted.

NOTE 2: GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS

We test goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives for potential impairment annually, or more frequently when there are events or circumstances that indicate it is more likely than not that an impairment exists. During the current quarter, we evaluated such events and circumstances and concluded there was an indicator of impairment due to a decline in our market capitalization. We performed a quantitative analysis as of March 31, 2020 utilizing the income approach. The income approach is based on the present value of future cash flows, which are derived from our long-term financial forecasts, and requires significant assumptions, including, among others, a discount rate and terminal value. There is inherent uncertainty associated with these key assumptions including the duration of the economic downturn associated with COVID-19 and the recovery period. As a result of our quantitative analysis, we determined the fair value of each of our reporting units was below its carrying value because of the impact of COVID-19, including a significant decline in pawn loan balances due to changes in typical customer behavior and mandated store closures in our GPMX countries. These factors impacted the forecast of future net revenues and earnings and resulted in lower present value of future cash flows. This led to a goodwill impairment charge of $41.3 million in the current quarter. In addition, we (a) determined an impairment had occurred in the fair values of acquired trade names of previously acquired entities in our Mexico and GPMX reporting units and recorded a related impairment of $2.9 million and $1.7 million respectively, and (b) determined the carrying amount of certain long-lived asset groups were not recoverable and recorded a related impairment of $1.1 million. These impairments were recorded under "Impairment of goodwill and intangible assets" in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. We will continue to evaluate our goodwill and intangible assets in future quarters, and note that we could be required to record additional impairments based on events and circumstances.

The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill by reportable segment for fiscal 2020 were as follows:

NOTE 3: ACQUISITIONS

In June 2019, we acquired assets related to seven pawn stores operating under the name "Metro Pawn" in Nevada, entering the Reno market and expanding our presence in the Las Vegas metropolitan area, for an aggregate purchase price of $7.0 million in cash, of which $3.9 million was recorded as goodwill. In December 2018, we acquired assets related to five pawn stores in Mexico for an aggregate purchase price of $0.3 million in cash, of which $0.1 million was recorded as goodwill. Substantially all goodwill attributable to the fiscal 2019 acquisitions will be deductible for tax purposes. We have concluded that these acquisitions were immaterial to our overall consolidated financial results and, therefore, have omitted information that would otherwise be required.

NOTE 5: LEASES

As described in Note 1, we adopted ASC Topic 842 as of October 1, 2019. We lease our pawn locations and corporate offices under operating leases and determine if an arrangement is or contains a lease at inception. After an initial lease term of generally three to ten years, our real property lease agreements typically allow renewals in three to five-year increments. We generally account for the initial lease term of our pawn locations as up to ten years, including renewal options. Our corporate office is leased through March 2029 with annually escalating rent and includes two five-year extension options at the end of the initial lease term. Our pawn location lease agreements generally include rent escalations throughout the initial lease term, with certain future rental payments contingent on increases in a consumer price index, included in variable lease expense. Many leases include both lease and non-lease components, which we have elected not to account for separately. Lease components generally include rent, taxes and insurance, while non-lease components generally include common area or other maintenance.

The weighted-average remaining lease term for operating leases as of March 31, 2020 was 5.72 years. As our leases generally do not include an implicit rate, we compute our incremental borrowing rate based on information available at the lease commencement date applying the portfolio approach to groups of leases with similar characteristics. We used incremental borrowing rates that match the duration of the remaining lease terms of our operating leases on a fully collateralized basis upon adoption as of October 1, 2019 to initially measure our lease liability. The weighted average incremental borrowing rate used to measure our lease liability as of March 31, 2020 was 8.25%.

Cash Converters International agreed to pay AUD $42.5 million, subject to court approval. We recorded a charge, net of tax, of $7.1 million for our proportionate share of the settlement in the first quarter of fiscal 2020 related to this event, in addition to our regularly included share of earnings from Cash Converters International. See Note 7 for the fair value and carrying value of our investment in Cash Converters International.

NOTE 7: FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Our assets and liabilities discussed below are classified in one of the following three categories based on the inputs used to develop their fair values: Level 1 — Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; Level 2 — Other observable market-based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data; and Level 3 — Unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data. We have elected not to measure at fair value any eligible items for which fair value measurement is optional. There were no transfers in or out of Level 1, Level 2 or Level 3 for financial assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis during the periods presented.

Table of Contents

As a result of the impact of the novel coronavirus disease (“COVID-19”), certain of the above fair values as of March 31, 2020 may be highly volatile.

We estimate that the carrying value of our cash and cash equivalents, pawn loans, pawn service charges receivable, current consumer loans, fees and interest receivable and other debt approximate fair value. We consider our cash and cash equivalents to be measured using Level 1 inputs and our pawn loans, pawn service charges receivable, consumer loans, fees and interest receivable and other debt to be measured using Level 3 inputs. Significant increases or decreases in the underlying assumptions used to value pawn loans, pawn service charges receivable, consumer loans, fees and interest receivable and other debt could significantly increase or decrease these fair value estimates.

We measured the fair value of the remaining deferred compensation fee due in September 2020 from the sale of Prestaciones Finmart, S.A.P.I. de C.V., SOFOM, E.N.R. ("Grupo Finmart") to Alpha Holding, S.A. de C.V. (“AlphaCredit”) in September 2016 as of March 31, 2020 under a discounted cash flow approach considering the estimated credit ratings for Grupo Finmart and AlphaCredit, with discount rates of primarily 7%. Certain of the significant inputs used for the valuation were not observable in the market. Significant increases or decreases in the underlying assumptions used to value the notes receivable could significantly increase or decrease these fair value estimates. We remain obligated to indemnify AlphaCredit for any tax obligations arising from the Grupo Finmart business that are attributable to periods prior to the completion of the sale in September 2016, referred to as “pre-closing taxes.” Those obligations continue until the expiration of the statute of limitations applicable to the pre-closing periods. In August 2019, AlphaCredit notified us of an indemnity claim for certain pre-closing taxes, but the nature, extent and validity of such claim has yet to be determined. In March 2020, AlphaCredit paid $4.0 million of the remaining deferred compensation into an escrow account pending resolution of the claim; we recorded that amount under “Prepaid expenses and other current assets, net” in our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2020. We reviewed the financial statements of Grupo Finmart and AlphaCredit including the calculation of synthetic credit spreads as described above in making our determination that the Parent Loan Notes are collectible on an ongoing basis.

The equity method of accounting is followed for our 13% ownership in a previously consolidated variable interest entity ("RDC") over which we no longer have the power to direct the activities that most significantly affect its economic performance. We believe that its fair value approximates carrying value although such fair value is highly variable and includes significant unobservable inputs.

We measured the fair value of the 2024 and 2025 Convertible Notes using quoted price inputs. The notes are not actively traded, and thus the price inputs represent a Level 2 measurement. As the quoted price inputs are highly variable from day to day, the fair value estimates disclosed above could significantly increase or decrease.

2.375% Convertible Senior Notes Due 2025

In May 2018, we issued $172.5 million aggregate principal amount of 2.375% Convertible Senior Notes Due 2025 (the “2025 Convertible Notes”). The 2025 Convertible Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture dated May 14, 2018 (the "2018 Indenture") by and between us and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as the original trustee. The 2025 Convertible Notes were issued in a private offering under Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933. The 2025 Convertible Notes pay interest semi-annually in arrears at a rate of 2.375% per annum on May 1 and November 1 of each year, commencing November 1, 2018, and mature on May 1, 2025 (the "2025 Maturity Date"), unless converted, redeemed or repurchased in accordance with their terms prior to such date. The carrying amount of the 2025 Convertible Notes as a separate equity-classified instrument (the “2025 Convertible Notes Embedded Derivative”) included in “Additional paid-in capital” in our condensed consolidated balance sheets of March 31, 2020 was $39.0 million. The effective interest rate for the three and six months ended March 31, 2020 was approximately 9%. As of March 31, 2020, the remaining unamortized debt discount and issuance costs will be amortized through the 2025 Maturity Date assuming no early conversion.

The 2025 Convertible Notes are convertible into cash or shares of Class A Non-voting Common Stock ("Class A Common Stock"), or any combination thereof, at our option subject to satisfaction of certain conditions and during the periods described in the 2018 Indenture, based on an initial conversion rate of 62.8931 shares of Class A Common Stock per $1,000 principal amount of 2025 Convertible Notes (equivalent to an initial conversion price of $15.90 per share of our Class A Common Stock). We account for the Class A Common Stock issuable upon conversion under the treasury stock method. To the extent our average share price is over $15.90 per share for any fiscal quarter or year-to-date period, we are required to recognize incremental dilution of our earnings per share.

If, among other triggers described in the 2018 Indenture, the market price of our Class A Common Stock meets the threshold based on at least 20 of the final 30 trading days of the quarter for the 2025 Convertible Notes to become convertible at the option of the holders during the subsequent quarter, we may be required to classify the 2025 Convertible Notes as current on our condensed consolidated balance sheets for each quarter in which such triggers are met. The stock trading price condition and other triggers are measured on a quarter-by-quarter basis and were not met as of March 31, 2020. As of March 31, 2020, the if-converted value of the 2025 Convertible Notes did not exceed the principal amount.

2.875% Convertible Senior Notes Due 2024

In July 2017, we issued $143.75 million aggregate principal amount of 2.875% Convertible Senior Notes Due 2024 (the “2024 Convertible Notes”). The 2024 Convertible Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture dated July 5, 2017 (the "2017 Indenture") by and between us and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as the original trustee. The 2024 Convertible Notes were issued in a private offering under Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933. The 2024 Convertible Notes pay interest semi-annually in arrears at a rate of 2.875% per annum on January 1 and July 1 of each year, commencing January 1, 2018, and mature on July 1, 2024 (the "2024 Maturity Date"), unless converted, redeemed or repurchased in accordance with their terms prior to such date. The carrying amount of the 2024 Convertible Notes as a separate equity-classified instrument (the “2024 Convertible Notes Embedded Derivative”) included in “Additional paid-in capital” in our condensed consolidated balance

Table of Contents

sheets of March 31, 2020 was $25.3 million. The effective interest rate for the three and six months ended March 31, 2020 was approximately 9%. As of March 31, 2020, the remaining unamortized debt discount and issuance costs will be amortized through the 2024 Maturity Date assuming no early conversion.

The 2024 Convertible Notes are convertible into cash or shares of Class A Common Stock, or any combination thereof, at our option subject to satisfaction of certain conditions and during the periods described in the 2017 Indenture, based on an initial conversion rate of 100 shares of Class A Common Stock per $1,000 principal amount of 2024 Convertible Notes (equivalent to an initial conversion price of $10.00 per share of our Class A Common Stock). We account for the Class A Common Stock issuable upon conversion under the treasury stock method. To the extent our average share price is over $10.00 per share for any fiscal quarter, we are required to recognize incremental dilution of our earnings per share.

If, among other triggers described in the 2017 Indenture, the market price of our Class A Common Stock meets the threshold based on at least 20 of the final 30 trading days of the quarter for the 2024 Convertible Notes to become convertible at the option of the holders during the subsequent quarter, we may be required to classify the 2024 Convertible Notes as current on our condensed consolidated balance sheets for each quarter in which such triggers are met. The stock trading price condition and other triggers are measured on a quarter-by-quarter basis and were not met as of March 31, 2020. As of March 31, 2020, the if-converted value of the 2024 Convertible Notes did not exceed the principal amount.

2.125% Cash Convertible Senior Notes Due 2019

In June 2014, we issued $200 million aggregate principal amount of 2.125% Cash Convertible Senior Notes Due 2019 (the "2019 Convertible Notes"), with an additional $30 million principal amount of 2019 Convertible Notes issued in July 2014. In July 2017, we used $34.4 million of net proceeds from the 2024 Convertible Notes offering to repurchase and retire $35.0 million aggregate principal amount of 2019 Convertible Notes. The 2019 Convertible Notes paid interest semi-annually in arrears at a rate of 2.125% per annum on June 15 and December 15 of each year. The 2019 Convertible Notes matured on June 15, 2019 (the "2019 Maturity Date"), and the remaining $195.0 million aggregate principal amount outstanding plus accrued interest was repaid using cash on hand.

2019 Convertible Notes Warrants

In connection with the issuance of the 2019 Convertible Notes, we also sold net-share-settled warrants (the “2019 Convertible Notes Warrants”). The 2019 Convertible Notes Warrants allowed for the purchase of up to approximately 14.3 million shares of our Class A Common Stock at a strike price of $20.83 per share. We account for the Class A Common Stock issuable upon exercise under the treasury stock method. As a result of the 2019 Convertible Notes Warrants, we will experience dilution to our diluted earnings per share if our average closing stock price exceeds $20.83 for any fiscal quarter before expiration of the warrants. The unexpired 2019 Convertible Notes Warrants expire in April 2020 and, if exercised, must be settled in net shares of our Class A Common Stock. Therefore, upon expiration of the 2019 Convertible Notes Warrants, we would issue shares of Class A Common Stock to the purchasers of the 2019 Convertible Notes Warrants that represent the value by which the price of the Class A Common Stock exceeds the strike price stipulated within the particular warrant agreement, if any. As of March 31, 2020, there are approximately 1.4 million shares of Class A Common Stock issuable under the 2019 Convertible Notes Warrants outstanding.

CASHMAX Secured Borrowing Facility

In November 2018, we entered into a receivables securitization facility with a third-party lender (the "lender") to provide funding for installment loan originations in our Canadian CASHMAX business. Under the facility, a variable interest entity (the "trust") has the right, subject to various conditions, to borrow up to CAD $25 million from the lender (the "third-party loan") and use the proceeds to purchase interests in installment loan receivables generated by CASHMAX. The trust uses collections on the transferred receivables to pay various amounts in accordance with an agreed priority arrangement, including expenses, its obligations under the third-party loan and, to the extent available, amounts owned to CASHMAX with respect to the purchase price of the transferred receivables and CASHMAX's retained interest in the receivables. CASHMAX has no obligation with respect to the third-party loan or the transferred receivables except to (a) service the underlying installment loans on behalf of the trust and (b) pay amounts owing under or repurchase the underlying installment loans in the event of a breach by CASHMAX or in certain other limited circumstances. The facility is nonrecourse to EZCORP (subject to certain limited guaranty obligations), allowed borrowing through November 2019, and fully matures in November 2021. Our obligation under the facility as of March 31, 2020 was $0.3 million.

NOTE 9: COMMON STOCK AND STOCK COMPENSATION

Common Stock Repurchase Program

In December 2019, our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $60.0 million of our Class A Common Stock over three years. During the three and six months ended March 31, 2020, we repurchased and retired 800,740 and 943,149 shares of our Class A Common Stock for $4.2 million and $5.2 million, respectively, which amount was allocated between "Additional paid-in capital" and "Retained earnings" in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. On March 20, 2020, we suspended our repurchase of shares under the program to preserve current liquidity as a result of uncertainties regarding the COVID-19 pandemic.

Stock Compensation

As of September 30, 2019, the EZCORP, Inc. 2010 Long-Term Incentive Plan, which has been approved by our Board of Directors, permitted grants of options, restricted stock awards and stock appreciation rights covering up to 5,485,649 shares of our Class A Common Stock.

During the first quarter of fiscal 2020, we granted a total of 222,912 restricted stock awards to our nine non-employee directors. These awards vest on September 30, 2020 and are subject only to service conditions.

The number of long-term incentive award shares and units granted are generally determined based on our share price as of the beginning of the fiscal year, which was $6.46 for fiscal 2020 awards.

NOTE 10: INCOME TAXES

On March 27, 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act was signed into law and includes certain income tax provisions relevant to businesses. The Company is required to recognize the effect on the consolidated financial statements in the period the law was enacted, which is the period ended March 31, 2020. For the period ended March 31, 2020, the CARES Act did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. At this time, the Company does not expect the impact of the CARES Act to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020.

NOTE 11: CONTINGENCIES

Currently and from time to time, we are involved in various claims, suits, investigations and legal proceedings. While we are unable to determine the ultimate outcome of any current litigation or regulatory actions , we believe their resolution will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.

NOTE 12: SEGMENT INFORMATION

During the first quarter of fiscal 2020, we revised the financial information our chief operating decision maker (currently our chief executive officer) reviews for operational decision-making purposes and for allocation of capital to include the separate financial results of our Lana business. Our historical segment results have been recast to conform to current presentation. We currently report our segments as follows: U.S. Pawn — all pawn activities in the United States; Latin America Pawn — all pawn activities in Mexico and other parts of Latin America; Lana — our differentiated customer-centric engagement platform; and Other International — primarily our equity interest in the net income of Cash Converters International and consumer finance activities in Canada. There are no inter-segment revenues presented below, and the amounts below were determined in accordance with the same accounting principles used in our condensed consolidated financial statements. While we expect the operations of the Lana segment to have a positive impact on our pawn loan redemption rates and therefore our pawn service charges and yield, the pawn service charges will all be reported in our pawn segments rather than allocated to the Lana segment. Only discrete revenues related to the Lana segment will be reported in the Lana segment results. As a digital offering, Lana has no separate physical store locations.

NOTE 14: SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Since March 31, 2020, the decline in pawn loan balances has accelerated and is continuing. The decline in pawn loan balances will have a negative impact on net revenues and earnings for the remainder of fiscal 2020 and future periods until we are able to rebuild the loan balances.

Since March 31, 2020, we have continued to experience strong merchandise sales, partially offsetting the impact of the declining loan balances. As a result of this increased sales activity, the decrease in loan originations and liquidity initiatives, our cash balance has continued to grow, increasing to greater than $250.0 million at the end of April 2020.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The discussion in this section contains forward-looking statements that are based on our current expectations. Actual results could differ materially from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements due to a number of risks, uncertainties and other factors, including those identified in "Part I, Item 1A — Risk Factors" of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2019, as supplemented by the information set forth in “Part I, Item 3 — Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk” and "Part II, Item 1A — Risk Factors" of this Report.

Impact of COVID-19

We began to see the impact of the novel coronavirus disease (“COVID-19”) to our operations in mid-March, which is when the closure of non-essential businesses and the implementation of stay-at-home requirements began in our geographic locations. We have been able to keep most of our stores open for business and operating under enhanced safety measures and restrictions

Table of Contents

on occupancy. During March, we lost 163 store operating days in U.S. Pawn as a result of mostly intermittent closures due to local orders or other COVID-19 related issues. In Latin America Pawn, governmental closure orders have had a more severe impact on our business, particularly in our GPMX unit (Guatemala, El Salvador, Honduras and Peru). During March, we lost a total of 1,089 store operating days in Latin America Pawn (18 in Mexico Pawn and 1,071 in GPMX). The store closure orders in GPMX continued into April, but started to ease in the latter portion of the month. As of the date of this Report, 99% of our stores in U.S. Pawn and 90% in Latin America Pawn are open for business and serving customers.

Additionally, we have experienced a decline in pawn loan originations and associated loan balances since mid-March, in both the U.S. and Latin America, as a result of a change in customer borrowing behaviors due to COVID-19. Pawn loan balances at the end of the second quarter were down $8.6 million (6.6%) in U.S. Pawn and $4.5 million (10.5%) in Latin America Pawn (up $0.6 million, or 1% on a constant currency basis), compared to the prior-year quarter. Since March 31, 2020, the decline in pawn loan balances has accelerated and is continuing. The decline in pawn loan balances will have a negative impact on net revenues and earnings for the remainder of fiscal 2020 and future periods until we are able to rebuild the loan balances.

Offsetting the net revenue losses due to decreased loan originations, we have seen a strong increase in merchandise sales during March and continuing into April. As a result of this increased sales activity, combined with the decrease in loan originations and our liquidity initiatives described below, our cash balance has grown to $197.7 million at the end of the quarter, further increasing to greater than $250.0 million at the end of April.

In order to maximize our ability to meet an expected increase in pawn loan originations, we have implemented several measures to increase liquidity. We have suspended repurchases of shares under our authorized stock repurchase program, have renegotiated certain supplier and vendor agreements, have slowed the pace of de novo store openings in Latin America, have delayed certain capital expenditures and, as a result of The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act, are able to delay payments of certain taxes.

The full extent and duration of the COVID-19 impact on the global economy generally, and on our business specifically, is currently unknown. We expect, however, that the pandemic will have an adverse effect on our net revenues and earnings in fiscal 2020, and if it continues, it may have an adverse effect on our results of operations, financial position and liquidity in future periods. See "Part II, Item 1A - Risk Factors."

Goodwill and Intangible Asset Impairment

During the current quarter, we concluded there was an indicator of impairment due to a decline in our market capitalization. We performed a quantitative analysis as of March 31, 2020 and determined the fair value of each of our reporting units was below its carrying value as a result of the impact of COVID-19, as discussed above. As a result of this analysis, we recorded an impairment charge of $41.3 million in the current quarter. We also (a) determined an impairment had occurred in the fair values of acquired trade names of previously acquired entities in our Mexico and GPMX reporting units and recorded a related impairment of $2.9 million and $1.7 million respectively, and (b) determined the carrying amount of certain long-lived asset groups were not recoverable and recorded a related impairment of $1.1 million. These impairments were recorded under "Impairment of goodwill and intangible assets" in the condensed consolidated statement of operations. See Note 2 of Notes to Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in "Part I, Item 1 — Financial Statements."We remain confident in our businesses, as all business units were performing well prior to the COVID-19 related impacts.

Overview and Financial Highlights

EZCORP is a Delaware corporation headquartered in Austin, Texas. We are a leading provider of pawn loans in the United States and Latin America.

Our vision is to be the market leader in North America in responsibly and respectfully meeting our customers' desire for access to cash when they want it. That vision is supported by four key imperatives:


•	Market Leading Customer Satisfaction;


•	Exceptional Staff Engagement;


•	Most Efficient Provider of Cash; and


•	Attractive Shareholder Returns.

At our pawn stores, we offer pawn loans, which are nonrecourse loans collateralized by tangible personal property, and sell merchandise to customers looking for good value. The merchandise we sell consists of second-hand collateral forfeited from our pawn lending activities or purchased from customers.

Table of Contents

We remain focused on optimizing our balance of pawn loans outstanding (“PLO”) and the resulting higher pawn service charges (“PSC”). The following charts present sources of net revenues, including PSC, merchandise sales gross profit ("Merchandise sales GP") and jewelry scrapping gross profit ("Jewelry scrapping GP"):

Pawn Activities

At our pawn stores, we offer pawn loans, which are typically small, nonrecourse loans collateralized by tangible personal property. We earn pawn service charges on our pawn loans, which varies by state and loan size. Collateral for our pawn loans consists of tangible personal property, generally jewelry, consumer electronics, tools, sporting goods and musical instruments. Security for our pawn loans is provided via the estimated resale value of the collateral and the perceived probability of the loan’s redemption.

Our ability to offer quality second-hand goods at prices significantly lower than original retail prices attracts value-conscious customers. The gross profit on sales of inventory depends primarily on our assessment of the loan or purchase value at the time the property is either accepted as loan collateral or purchased and our ability to sell that merchandise in a timely manner. As a significant portion of our inventory and sales involve gold and jewelry, our results can be influenced by the market price of gold and diamonds.

Growth and Expansion

Or strategy is to expand the number of locations we operate through opening new (“de novo”) locations and through acquisitions in both Latin America and the United States and potential new markets. Our ability to add new stores is dependent on several variables, such as projected achievement of internal investment hurdles, the availability of acceptable sites or acquisition candidates, the alignment of acquirer/seller price expectations, the regulatory environment, local zoning ordinances, access to capital and the availability of qualified personnel. Given the environment which we currently operate, we have placed all de novo and acquisition activities on hold.

Seasonality and Quarterly Results

Historically, pawn service charges are highest in our fourth fiscal quarter (July through September) due to a higher average loan balance during the summer lending season in the United States and lowest in our third fiscal quarter (April through June) following the tax refund season in the United States. Merchandise sales are highest in our first and second fiscal quarters (October through March) due to the holiday season, jewelry sales in the United States surrounding Valentine’s Day and the availability of tax refunds in the United States. Most of our customers in Latin America receive additional compensation from their employers in December, and many receive additional compensation in June or July, applying downward pressure on loan balances and fueling some merchandise sales in those periods. As a net effect of these and other factors and excluding discrete charges, our consolidated profit before tax is generally highest in our first fiscal quarter (October through December) and lowest in our third fiscal quarter (April through June).

We expect the COVID-19 pandemic to negatively impact our financial results for fiscal 2020, and such impact is unknown. This uncertainty is dependent upon the longevity and severity of the pandemic and the pace of the business reopening and rebound, including the impact of government responses. The pandemic could also be material to our longer-term financial results and condition based upon the same factors.

Segments

During the first quarter of fiscal 2020, we revised the financial information our chief operating decision maker (currently our chief executive officer) reviews for operational decision-making purposes and for allocation of capital to include the separate financial results of our Lana business. Our historical segment results have been recast to conform to current presentation. We currently report our segments as follows: U.S. Pawn - all pawn activities in the United States; Latin America Pawn - all pawn activities in Mexico and other parts of Latin America; Lana - our customer-centric digital engagement platform; and Other International - primarily our equity interest in the net income of Cash Converters International and consumer finance activities in Canada. While we expect the operations of the Lana segment to have a positive impact on our pawn loan redemption rates and therefore our pawn service charges and yield, the pawn service charges will all be reported in our pawn segments rather than allocated to the Lana segment. Only discrete revenues related to the Lana segment will be reported in the Lana segment results. As a digital offering, Lana has no separate physical store locations.

Leases

As of October 1, 2019, we adopted Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 842, Leases (Topic 842). Topic 842 required companies to generally recognize on the balance sheet operating and financing lease liabilities and corresponding right-of-use assets. We recorded a net right-of-use asset of $237.5 million and a net lease liability of $246.0 million.

Segment contribution decreased $8.0 million due to the goodwill impairment charge recorded during the quarter. Excluding that charge, segment contribution increased $1.9 million, or 7.0%, to $30.4 million. Net revenues increased 2% to $100.8 million while operations expenses were tightly managed and were flat to the prior-year quarter.

The change in net revenue attributable to same stores and new stores added since the prior-year quarter is summarized as follows:



	Change in Net Revenue

	(in millions)
Same stores	$	(0.6	)	$	1.1	$	0.5

Total	$	(0.1	)	$	1.5	$	1.4
Change in jewelry scrapping sales gross profit and other revenues						0.5
Total change in net revenue						$	1.9

Pawn service charges were flat as a higher yield offset a 3% decrease in average ending monthly pawn loan balances outstanding during the quarter. We have experienced a substantial decline in new loans activity and associated loan balances since mid-March 2020 and continuing as a result of a change in customer borrowing behaviors due to COVID-19. See "Impact of COVID-19" above.

Merchandise sales increased 6% with margins down 100 basis points to 36%, the low end of our target range, as we continue to focus on inventory management. As a result, merchandise sales gross profit increased 4% to $37.2 million.

Jewelry scrapping sales gross profit increased 38% to $1.9 million on higher volume and scrapping margins as a result of increased gold market prices, with margins up 200 basis points to 19%.

Non-GAAP Financial Information

In addition to the financial information prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"), we provide certain other non-GAAP financial information on a constant currency basis ("constant currency"). We use constant currency results to evaluate our Latin America Pawn operations, which are denominated primarily in Mexican pesos, Guatemalan quetzals and other Latin American currencies. We believe that presentation of constant currency results is meaningful and useful in understanding the activities and business metrics of our Latin America Pawn operations and reflect an additional way of viewing aspects of our business that, when viewed with GAAP results, provide a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our business. We provide non-GAAP financial information for informational purposes and to enhance understanding of our GAAP consolidated financial statements. We use this non-GAAP financial information to evaluate and compare operating results across accounting periods. Readers should consider the information in addition to, but not instead of or superior to, our financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. This non-GAAP financial information may be determined or calculated differently by other companies, limiting the usefulness of those measures for comparative purposes.

Constant currency results reported herein are calculated by translating consolidated balance sheet and consolidated statement of operations items denominated in local currency to U.S. dollars using the exchange rate from the prior-year comparable period, as opposed to the current period, in order to exclude the effects of foreign currency rate fluctuations. We used the end-of-period rate for balance sheet items and the average closing daily exchange rate on a monthly basis during the appropriate period for statement of operations items. Our statement of operations constant currency results reflect the monthly exchange rate fluctuations and so are not directly calculable from the above rates. Constant currency results, where presented, also exclude the foreign currency gain or loss. The end-of-period and approximate average exchange rates for each applicable currency as compared to U.S. dollars as of and for the three and six months ended March 31 were as follows:



	March 31,		Three Months Ended March 31,		Six Months Ended March 31,

In the current quarter, our Latin America pawn segment opened nine de novo stores.

Segment contribution decreased $39.6 million, or 419%, to $(30.1) million (436% on a constant currency basis) primarily due to the goodwill impairment charges recorded during the quarter. Excluding those charges, segment contribution decreased $3.7 million, or 39%, to $5.8 million (44% on a constant currency basis) with a net revenue decline of $2.2 million, or 8% ($1.7 million, or 6%, on a constant currency basis), to $25.8 million. Operations expenses were tightly managed with an increase of $0.2 million, or 1% ($0.8 million, or 4% on a constant currency basis), to $18.5 million.

The change in net revenue attributable to same stores and new stores added since the prior-year quarter is summarized as follows:



	Change in Net Revenue

Change in jewelry scrapping sales gross profit and other revenues							0.2
Total change in net revenue							$	(1.7	)

Pawn service charges decreased 7% (6% on a constant currency basis). The average ending monthly pawn loan balance outstanding during the current quarter was down 8% (3% on a constant currency basis). We have experienced a substantial decline in new loans activity and associated loan balances since mid-March 2020 and continuing as a result of a change in customer borrowing behaviors due to COVID-19.

Merchandise sales increased 11% (14% on a constant currency basis) with margins down 600 basis point as we continue with efforts to reduce aged general merchandise. As a result of these factors and foreign currency impacts, merchandise sales gross profit was down 11% to $6.9 million (9% to $7.0 million on a constant currency basis).

Jewelry scrapping sales decreased 10% (8% on a constant currency basis) as airport closings limited many stores ability to scrap and export their gold, however with a 1,000 basis point increase in margin to 18% as we benefited from an overall increase in gold market prices.

We launched our customer-centric digital engagement platform (“Lana”) in the prior quarter, initially serving customers in selected Florida locations. This platform currently offers the ability for customers at selected locations to remotely extend their pawn loans through digital payments using their Lana account, and will allow us to leverage our existing store and pawn customer base to expand customer acquisition and retention and enable rapid deployment of new products. Discrete revenues to date are minimal as the product offering launched late in the first quarter of fiscal 2020, and all fees from pawn loan extensions, including those made through the Lana platform, are reported in the pawn segments.

Segment contribution was $(0.9) million, an improvement of $7.3 million from the prior-year quarter primarily due to:


•	A $6.5 million impairment of Cash Converters International in the prior-year quarter with no impairment in the current quarter; and


•	A decrease in operating expenses of $0.9 million subsequent to the deconsolidation of a previously consolidated variable interest entity ("RDC") in mid-fiscal 2019; and


•	An impairment of $1.1 million of certain long-lived assets in the current quarter.

Segment contribution decreased 142% over the prior-year quarter, including the goodwill and intangible assets impairment of $47.1 million recorded in the current quarter and a $6.5 million prior-year quarter impairment related to our investment in Cash Converters International, offset by mixed results in our US Pawn and Latin America Pawn segments partially as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Interest expense decreased $3.1 million, or 37%, primarily due to the reduction of interest expense on our 2.125% Cash Convertible Senior Notes Due 2019 ("2019 Convertible Notes") which were repaid in June 2019. Prior to repayment, the principal amount of these notes was $195.0 million.

Interest income decreased $2.1 million, or 79%, primarily due to the declining principal balance on the Prestaciones Finmart, S.A.P.I. de C.V., SOFOM, E.N.R. ("Grupo Finmart") notes receivable as they are repaid in accordance with their agreed amortization schedule, in addition to the reduction of interest earned on outstanding cash balances after our 2019 Convertible Notes were repaid in June 2019. The March 2020 payment on the Grupo Finmart notes was paid into an escrow account pending resolution of an outstanding indemnity claim for pre-closing taxes.

Income tax expense increased $4.4 million due primarily to a $39 million decrease in income from continuing operations before income taxes offset by a $20 million increase resulting from non-deductible goodwill impairments and $1.6 million to correct the calculation of certain transaction tax liabilities in prior periods. Income tax expense includes other items that do not necessarily correspond to pre-tax earnings and create volatility in our effective tax rate. These items include the net effect of state taxes, non-deductible items and changes in valuation allowances for certain foreign operations.

Segment contribution decreased $7.0 million due to the goodwill impairment charge recorded during the quarter. Excluding that charge, segment contribution decreased $3.1 million, or 6%, to $59.0 million. While net revenue was flat at $200.2 million, total expenses decreased $3.1 million to $141.3 million due primarily a $2.9 million prior-period recognition of an uncollectible receivable balance from a bankrupt refining partner with no comparable charge in the current period. Excluding the impairment, operations expenses were tightly managed and were flat to the prior-year six-months

Pawn service charges were flat as a higher yield offset a 2% decrease in average ending monthly pawn loan balances outstanding during the current six-months. We have experienced a substantial decline in new loans activity and associated loan balances since mid-March 2020 and continuing as a result of a change in customer borrowing behaviors due to COVID-19.

Merchandise sales increased 3% with margins down 100 basis points to 36%, the low end of our target range, as we continue to focus on inventory management. As a result of the net impact of the increase in sales offset by decreased margin, merchandise sales gross profit decreased 1% to $71.2 million.

Jewelry scrapping sales gross profit increased 35% to $3.2 million due primarily to higher scrapping margins as a result of increased gold market prices. Scrap sales margins increased 400 basis points to 20%.

In the current-year six-months, our Latin America pawn segment opened 13 de novo stores.

Segment contribution decreased $38.3 million, or 235%, to $22.0 million (247% on a constant currency basis) primarily due to the goodwill impairment charges recorded during the quarter. Excluding those charges, segment contribution decreased $2.3 million, or 14%, to $13.9 million (22% on a constant currency basis) with flat net revenue. Operations expense were tightly managed and increased $2.0 million, or 6% (7% on a constant currency basis), to $38.5 million due primarily to new store openings, along with relocations and expansions of existing stores.

Pawn service charges were flat (down 1% on a constant currency basis). The average ending monthly pawn loan balance outstanding during the current-year six-months was down 4% on a GAAP and constant currency basis, offset by the addition of new stores since the prior-year. We have experienced a substantial decline in new loans activity and associated loan balances since mid-March 2020 and continuing as a result of a change in customer borrowing behaviors due to COVID-19.

Merchandise sales increased 16% on a GAAP and constant currency basis as we continue with efforts to reduce aged general merchandise at a higher cost basis, with an offsetting 500 basis point decline in margins. As a result of these factors and foreign currency impacts, merchandise sales gross profit was down 1% to $15.6 million (2% to $15.5 million on a constant currency basis).

Jewelry scrapping sales increased 8% on a GAAP and constant currency basis, with a 600 basis point increase in margin to 14% as we benefited from an overall increase in gold market prices.

Segment loss was $7.4 million, an improvement of $16.7 million from the prior-year primarily due to:


•	A $19.7 million impairment of Cash Converters International in the prior-year with no impairment in the current-year six-months; and


•	A decrease in operating expenses of $2.5 million related to the deconsolidation of a previously consolidated variable interest entity ("RDC") in mid-fiscal 2019; and


•	An impairment of $1.1 million of certain long-lived assets in the current quarter; and


•	A $7.1 million charge, ($10.1 million, net of a $3.0 million tax benefit) in the first quarter of fiscal 2020 for our share of the Cash Converters International settlement of a class action lawsuit.

Segment contribution decreased 61% over the prior-year, primarily related to the goodwill and intangible asset impairment of $47.1 million recorded in the second quarter, mixed results in our US Pawn and Latin America Pawn segments partially as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, partially offset by a $19.7 million prior-year quarter impairment related to our investment in Cash Converters International.

Administrative expenses increased $4.1 million primarily as a result of higher labor, including severance costs, cloud computing costs and professional fees. Professional fees include costs related to the remediation of the material weakness in our information technology general controls, fees related to the current quarter adoption of a new lease accounting standard, and other smaller items.

Loss on sale or disposal of assets and other includes $1.1 million due to the termination of non-core software projects.

Interest expense decreased $6.6 million, or 39%, primarily due to the reduction of interest expense on our 2.125% Cash Convertible Senior Notes Due 2019 ("2019 Convertible Notes") which were repaid June 17, 2019. Prior to repayment, the principal amount of these notes was $195.0 million.

Interest income decreased $4.6 million, or 82%, primarily due to the declining principal balance on the Prestaciones Finmart, S.A.P.I. de C.V., SOFOM, E.N.R. ("Grupo Finmart") notes receivable, in addition to the reduction of interest earned on outstanding cash balances after our 2019 Convertible Notes were repaid in June 2019.

Income tax expense increased $7.2 million due primarily to:


•	A $31 million decrease in income from continuing operations before income taxes offset by a $20 million increase resulting from non-deductible goodwill impairments;


•	A $0.7 million reduction in tax benefit from the December 2019 vesting of restricted stock units compared to the prior estimates of the related tax benefit that was recorded over their 3-year vesting period; and


•	$1.6 million to reverse the calculation of certain transaction tax liabilities in prior periods.

Income tax expense includes other items that do not necessarily correspond to pre-tax earnings and create volatility in our effective tax rate. These items include the net effect of state taxes, non-deductible items and changes in valuation allowances for certain foreign operations.

Change in Cash and Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash for the Six Months Ended March 31, 2020 vs. Six Months Ended March 31, 2019

The decrease in cash flows from operating activities year-over-year was due to $34.7 million of changes in working capital, offset by a $5.4 million increase in net income, exclusive of non-cash items. Changes in working capital included certain required prepayments and payments of accounts payable, including certain discrete items, accrued as of September 30, 2019.

The increase in cash flows from investing activities year-over-year was primarily due to a $22.0 million net decrease in investment in customer loan growth, partially offset by a $10.6 million net decrease in principal collections on notes receivable.

The decrease in cash flows used in financing activities year-over-year was primarily due to $5.2 million in common stock repurchases.

The net effect of these and other smaller items was a $35.3 million increase in cash on hand during the current year-to-date period, resulting in a $197.7 million ending cash and restricted cash balance. Of the ending cash balance at March 31, 2020, $34.9 million was unavailable to fund domestic operations as we intend to permanently reinvest those funds in our foreign operations.

Sources and Uses of Cash

In December 2019, our Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase program that will allow us to repurchase up to $60 million of our Class A Non-voting Common Stock over three years. On March 20, 2020, we suspended the repurchase of shares under the program in order to preserve current liquidity given the uncertainty of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic to our operations. The resumption of our stock repurchase program and the amount and timing of purchases will be dependent on a variety of factors. These factors include the return to normal business conditions, stock price, trading volume, general market conditions, legal and regulatory requirements, the level of cash flows, and corporate considerations determined by management and the Board, such as liquidity and capital needs and the availability of attractive alternative investment opportunities. The Board of Directors has reserved the right to modify, suspend or terminate the program at any time. During the three and six months ended March 31, 2020, we repurchased and retired 800,740 and 943,149 shares of our Class A Common Stock for $4.2 million and $5.2 million, respectively.

We anticipate that cash flow from operations and cash on hand will be adequate to fund any future stock repurchases, our contractual obligations, planned de novo store growth, capital expenditures and working capital requirements through fiscal 2020. We continue to explore accretive acquisition opportunities, both large and small, and may choose to pursue additional debt, equity or equity-linked financings in the future should the need arise. Given the current uncertainty related to the COVID-19 pandemic, we may adjust our capital or other expenditures.

Contractual Obligations

In "Part II, Item 7 — Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2019, we reported that we had $631.7 million in total contractual

obligations as of September 30, 2019 There have been no material changes to this total obligation since September 30, 2020, other than changes as the result of adoption of accounting standards as further discussed in Note 1 of Notes to Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in "Part I, Item 1 — Financial Statements."

We are responsible for the maintenance, property taxes and insurance at most of our locations. In the fiscal year ended September 30, 2019, these collectively amounted to $22.5 million.

Cautionary Statement Regarding Risks and Uncertainties that May Affect Future Results

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, includes "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. We intend that all forward-looking statements be subject to the safe harbors created by these laws. All statements, other than statements of historical facts, regarding our strategy, future operations, financial position, future revenues, projected costs, prospects, plans and objectives are forward-looking statements. These statements are often, but not always, made with words or phrases like "may," "should," "could," "will," "predict," "anticipate," "believe," "estimate," "expect," "intend," "plan," "projection" and similar expressions. Such statements are only predictions of the outcome and timing of future events based on our current expectations and currently available information and, accordingly, are subject to substantial risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Actual results could differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements due to a number of risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control. In addition, we cannot predict all of the risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results to differ from those expressed in the forward-looking statements. Accordingly, you should not regard any forward-looking statements as a representation that the expected results will be achieved. Important risk factors that could cause results or events to differ from current expectations are identified and described in "Part I, Item 1A — Risk Factors" of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2019 and "Part II, Item 1A — Risk Factors" of this Report.

We specifically disclaim any responsibility to publicly update any information contained in a forward-looking statement except as required by law. All forward-looking statements attributable to us are expressly qualified in their entirety by this cautionary statement.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Market risks relating to our operations result primarily from changes in interest rates, gold values and foreign currency exchange rates, and are described in detail in "Part II, Item 7A — Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk" of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2019. With the exception of the impacts of COVID-19, which are discussed elsewhere in this Report, there have been no material changes in our reported market risks or risk management policies since the filing of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2019.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

This report includes the certifications of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer required by Rule 13a-14 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"). See Exhibits 31.1 and 31.2. This Item 4 includes information concerning the controls and control evaluations referred to in those certifications.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

Under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, our management evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2020. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of March 31, 2020 due to the continuing existence of a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting described below (which we view as an integral part of our disclosure controls and procedures). Based on the performance of additional procedures designed to ensure the reliability of our financial reporting, we believe that the

Table of Contents

condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q fairly present, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations and cash flows as of the dates, and for the periods, presented, in conformity with GAAP.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

We implemented internal controls to ensure we adequately evaluated our leases and properly assessed the impact of Topic 842 on our financial statements upon adoption on October 1, 2019. There were no significant changes to our internal control over financial reporting due to the adoption of the new standard.

During the second quarter of fiscal 2019, we identified deficiencies in our information technology general controls (ITGCs) that are designed to prevent or detect unauthorized access or changes to certain information technology (IT) systems that support our financial reporting processes. Our related IT dependent manual and application controls that are impacted by the affected ITGCs were also deemed ineffective as they rely on reports generated by the IT systems subject to ITGCs, resulting in our inability to place reliance on internal controls over related financial statement accounts and assertions. At that time, we determined that the ITGC deficiencies represent a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting and reported that material weakness in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2019. Because we have not fully remediated that material weakness as of March 31, 2020, we have concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of that date.

During the quarter ended March 31, 2020, we have continued to implement, manage and monitor a remediation plan focused on IT control enhancements across our logical access and change management processes, including the evaluation of automation tools, where applicable, and database monitoring activities. Management believes it is taking the appropriate steps to remediate the underlying ITGC deficiencies, including allowing the controls to operate for a time period to produce sufficient testing sample sizes.

Inherent Limitations on Internal Controls

Notwithstanding the foregoing, management does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system will be met. Limitations inherent in any control system include the following:


•	Judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and control and process breakdowns can occur because of simple errors or mistakes.


•	Controls can be circumvented by individuals, acting alone or in collusion with others, or by management override.


•	The design of any system of controls is based in part on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.


•	Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with associated policies or procedures.


•	The design of a control system must reflect the fact that resources are constrained, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs.

Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

Important risk factors that could affect our operations and financial performance, or that could cause results or events to differ from current expectations, are described in "Part I, Item 1A — Risk Factors" of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2019, as supplemented by the information set forth below.

Public health issues, including the current COVID-19 pandemic, could adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.

Our business may be impacted by public health issues, including pandemics and the spread of contagious diseases. Such public health issues, and the government and consumer responses thereto, may (i) limit our ability to supply products and services to our customers as a result of store closures, reduced access to or foot traffic in our stores, or labor shortages, (ii) adversely affect the demand for our products and services or (iii) cause other unforeseen negative developments. Any of these factors may adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.

The outbreak of COVID-19 has affected our operations beginning primarily in March 2020. Governmental fiscal stimulus response, stay-at-home orders and business restrictions, health agency guidance regarding social distancing and public perceptions of the risks associated with the COVID-19 pandemic have resulted in a reduction in the demand for pawn loans with a resulting significant decline in pawn loan balances. See “Part I, Item 2 — Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial Condition - Impact of COVID-19.” The decline in pawn loan balances will negatively impact our financial performance for the remainder of fiscal 2020 and may impact our results of operations, financial condition and liquidity in future periods. The extent of the impact is dependent upon a number of factors, including the longevity and severity of the pandemic, the pace of business reopenings and rebound, the impact of government responses and the degree to which customer behaviors return to historical norms.

Goodwill comprises a significant portion of our total assets. We assess goodwill for impairment at least annually, which could result in a material, non-cash write-down and could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.

As discussed in Note 2 of Notes to Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in "Part I, Item 1 — Financial Statements," during the current quarter, we recorded significant impairment charges to goodwill, the fair value an acquired trade name and the carrying amount of certain long-lived asset groups. In light of these impairment charges, specific reference is made to the risk factor regarding goodwill and other intangible asset impairments on page 16 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2019.

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

The table below provides certain information about our repurchase of shares of Class A Non-voting Common Stock during the quarter ended March 31, 2020. On March 20, 2020, we suspended the repurchase of shares in order to preserve current liquidity as a result of the uncertainties regarding the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. All repurchases to date were made in open market transactions at prevailing market prices and were executed pursuant to a trading plan under Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

(1)	On December 2, 2019, our Board of Directors approved a program to repurchase up to $60.0 million of our Class A Non-voting Common Stock over three years. Under the stock repurchase program, we may purchase Class A Non-voting common stock from time to time at management's discretion in accordance with applicable securities laws, including through open market transactions, block or privately negotiated transactions, or any combination thereof. In addition, we may purchase shares pursuant to a trading plan meeting the requirements of Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The amount and timing of purchases will be dependent on a variety of factors, including stock price, trading volume, general market conditions, legal and regulatory requirements, general business conditions, the level of cash flows, and corporate considerations determined by management and the Board of Directors, such as liquidity and capital needs and the availability of attractive alternative investment opportunities. The Board of Directors has reserved the right to modify, suspend or terminate the program at any time.
