Notes to Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1: ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Description of Business
EZCORP, Inc. (collectively with its subsidiaries, the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) is a provider of pawn loans in the United States (“U.S.”) 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 pre-owned merchandise purchased from customers.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements (“Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements”) have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements.
These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes contained in our
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30,
2022, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on November 16, 2022 (“2022 Annual Report”).
In the opinion of management, the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair presentation. Financial results for the three and nine-month periods ended June 30, 2023, are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2023 or any other period due, in part, to seasonal variations. There have been no changes that have had a material impact in significant accounting policies as described in our 2022
Annual Report
.
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of EZCORP, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. We use the equity method of accounting for entities in which we have a 50% or less investment and exercise significant influence. We account for equity investments for which we do not have significant influence and without readily determinable fair values at cost with adjustments for observable changes in price in orderly transactions for identical or similar investments of the same issuer or impairments. All inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates and Assumptions
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Such estimates and assumptions include the determination of inventory reserves, expected credit losses, useful lives of long-lived and intangible assets, valuation of share-based compensation, valuation of equity investments, valuation of deferred tax assets and liabilities, loss contingencies related to litigation and discount rates used for operating leases. We base our estimates on historical experience, observable trends and various other assumptions we believe are reasonable. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
We reviewed all recently issued accounting pronouncements and concluded that they were either not applicable or not expected to have a material impact on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

During the three and nine months ended June 30, 2023, we recorded our share of income of $

million and a $
29.4
million loss on our share of losses from Cash Converters, respectively, included in
“Equity in net (income) loss of unconsolidated affiliates”
in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. For the nine months ended June 30, 2023, the $
29.4
million loss includes $
32.4
million of our share of their non-cash goodwill impairment charge.
See Note 6: Fair Value Measurements for the fair value and carrying value of our investment in Cash Converters.
Founders One, LLC
In October 2021, we invested $
15.0
million in exchange for a non-redeemable voting participating preferred equity interest in Founders One, LLC (“Founders”), a then newly-formed entity with one other member. Founders used that $
15.0
million to acquire an equity interest in Simple Management Group, Inc. (“SMG”).
On December 2, 2022, we contributed an additional $
15.0
million to Founders associated with our preferred interest, which proceeds were used by Founders to acquire additional common stock in SMG. In addition, we loaned $
15.0
million to Founders in exchange for a Demand Promissory Note secured by the common interest in Founders held by the other member.

Table of Contents
We have an interest in Founders, a variable interest entity, but because the Company is not the primary beneficiary, we do not consolidate Founders. Further, as we are not the appointed manager, we do not have the ability to direct the activities of the investment entity that most significantly impact its economic performance. Consequently, our equity investment in Founders is accounted for utilizing the measurement alternative within Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 321, Investments — Equity Securities. Our $
30.0
million carrying value of the investment and $
15.0
million Demand Promissory Note are included in “Other investments” and “Prepaid expenses and other current assets” in our consolidated balance sheets, respectively. Our maximum exposure for losses related to our investment in Founders is our $
30.0
million equity investment and $
15.0
million Demand Promissory Note plus accrued and unpaid interest.
See Note 6: Fair Value Measurements for the fair values and carrying values of our investment in and loan to Founders, respectively.
NOTE 6: FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The fair value of a financial instrument is the amount that could be received upon the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value hierarchy prioritizes the quality and reliability of the information used to determine fair values. Categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The fair value hierarchy is defined into the following three categories:
•
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.
•
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.

Due to the short-term nature of cash and cash equivalents, pawn loans and pawn service charges receivable, we estimate that the carrying value approximates fair value. We consider our cash and cash equivalents, including money market accounts, to be measured using Level 1 inputs and our pawn loans, pawn service charges 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, fees and interest receivable and other debt could significantly increase or decrease these fair value estimates.
The Company remeasures its acquisition-related contingent obligation associated with the acquisition in June 2021 of PLO del Bajio S. de R.S. de C.V., which owned stores operating under the name “Cash Apoyo Efectivo,” at the end of each reporting period. This remeasurement resulted in a $
2.6
million and $
5.1
million reduction of the obligation with an offset recorded to “Other” as an operating item in our condensed consolidated statements of operations during the three and nine months ended June 30, 2023, respectively. There is
no
remaining obligation in our Consolidated Balance Sheet as of June 30, 2023. The key assumptions used to determine the fair value of acquisition-related contingent consideration are estimated by management, not observable in the market and, therefore, considered Level 3 inputs within the fair value hierarchy.

In March 2019, we received $
1.1
million in previously escrowed seller funds as a result of settling certain indemnification claims with the seller of GPMX. In April 2019, we loaned the $
1.1
million back to the seller of GPMX in exchange for a promissory note. The note bears interest at the rate of
2.89
% per annum and is secured by certain marketable securities owned by the seller and held in a U.S. brokerage account. All principal and accrued interest is due and payable in April 2024. The fair value of the note approximated its carrying value as of June 30, 2023.
In December 2022, we loaned $
15.0
million to Founders in exchange for a Demand Promissory Note secured by the common interest in Founders held by the other member. The note bears interest at the rate of
12.00
% per annum, and all principal and accrued interest is due on demand. The fair value of the note approximated its carrying value as of June 30, 2023.
We use the equity method of accounting to account for our ownership interest in Cash Converters. The inputs used to generate the fair value of the investment in Cash Converters were considered Level 1 inputs. These inputs consist of (a) the quoted stock price on the Australian Stock Exchange multiplied by (b) the number of shares we owned multiplied by (c) the applicable foreign currency exchange rate as of the end of our reporting period. We included no control premium for owning a large percentage of outstanding shares.
The $
39.2
million in “Other investments” as of June 30, 2023, includes $
30.0
million related to our investment in Founders and $
6.2
million related to our investment in
Rich Data Corporation (
“
RDC
”
)
. We believe the investment’s fair value approximated its carrying value although such fair value is highly variable and includes significant unobservable inputs. The $
18.0
million “Other investments” as of June 30, 2022, includes $
15.0
million related to our investment in Founders.
We determined the fair value of the 2024, 2025 and 2029 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.

3.750
% Convertible Senior Notes Due 2029
In December 2022, we issued $
230.0
million aggregate principal amount of
3.750
% Convertible Senior Notes Due 2029 (the “2029 Convertible Notes”), for which $
230.0
million remains outstanding as of June 30, 2023. The 2029 Convertible Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture dated December 12, 2022 (the “2022 Indenture”) by and between the Company and Truist Bank, as trustee. The 2029 Convertible Notes were issued in a private offering under Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933. The 2029 Convertible Notes pay interest semi-annually in arrears at a rate of
3.750
% per annum on June 15 and December 15 of each year, commencing June 15, 2023, and mature on December 15, 2029 (the “2029 Maturity Date”), unless converted, redeemed or repurchased in accordance with the terms prior to such date. At maturity, the holders of the 2029 Convertible Notes will be entitled to receive cash equal to the principal of the 2029 Convertible Notes plus accrued interest.
The effective interest rate for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2023 was approximately
4.28
%. As of June 30, 2023, the remaining unamortized debt issuance costs will be amortized using the effective interest method through the 2029 Maturity Date assuming no early conversion.
The 2029 Convertible Notes are convertible based on an initial conversion rate of 89.0313 shares of Class A Common Stock per $1,000 principal amount (equivalent to an initial conversion price of $
11.23
per share). The conversion rate will not be adjusted for any accrued and unpaid interest. The 2029 Convertible Notes contain certain make-whole fundamental change premiums and customary anti-dilution adjustments. Upon conversion, we may settle in cash, shares of Class A Common Stock or any combination thereof, at our election.
Prior to June 15, 2029, the 2029 Convertible Notes will be convertible only under the following circumstances: (1) during any fiscal quarter commencing after the fiscal quarter ending on March 31, 2023 (and only during such fiscal quarter), if the last reported sale price of our Class A Common Stock for at least
20
trading days (whether or not consecutive) during a period of
30
consecutive trading days ending on the last trading day of the immediately preceding fiscal quarter is greater than or equal to
130
% of the conversion price on each applicable trading day; (2) during the
five
business day period after any
five
consecutive trading day period (the “measurement period”) in which the trading price, as defined in the 2022 Indenture, per $1,000 principal amount of notes for each trading day of the measurement period was less than
98
% of the product of the last reported sale price of our Class A Common Stock and the conversion rate on such trading day; (3) if we call any or all of the 2029 Convertible Notes for redemption, at any time prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding the redemption date; or (4) upon the occurrence of specified corporate events, as defined in the 2022 Indenture. On or after June 15, 2029 until the close of business on the business day immediately preceding the 2029 Maturity Date, holders of 2029 Convertible Notes may, at their option, convert their 2029 Convertible Notes at any time, regardless of the foregoing circumstances.

NOTE 8: COMMON STOCK AND STOCK COMPENSATION
Common Stock Repurchase Program
On May 3, 2022, the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) authorized the repurchase of up to $
50
million of our Class A Common Stock over
three years
(the “Common Stock Repurchase Program”). Execution of the program will be responsive to fluctuating market conditions and valuations, liquidity needs and the expected return on investment compared to other opportunities.
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, 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. As of June 30, 2023, the Company has repurchased and retired
1,275,646
shares of our Class A Common Stock for $
11.0
million under the Common Stock Repurchase Program, of which $
3.0
million was repurchased during the quarter ended June 30, 2023. The repurchase amount is allocated between “Additional paid-in capital” and “Retained earnings” in our condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Table of Contents
Other Common Stock Repurchases
During December 2022, the Company used approximately $
5.0
million of the net proceeds from the 2029 Convertible Notes offering to repurchase for cash
578,703
shares of its Class A common stock from purchasers of the notes in privately negotiated transactions. Such transactions were authorized separately from, and not considered a part of, the publicly announced share repurchase program discussed above. The repurchase amount is allocated between “Additional paid-in capital” and “Retained earnings” in our condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Stock Compensation
We maintain a Board-approved incentive plan to retain the services of our valued officers, directors and employees and to incentivize such persons to make contributions to our company and motivate excellent performance (the “Incentive Plan”). Under the Incentive Plan, we grant awards of restricted stock or restricted stock units to employees and non-employee directors. Awards granted to employees are typically subject to performance and service conditions. Awards granted to non-employee directors are time-based awards subject only to service conditions. Awards granted under the Incentive Plan are measured at the grant date fair value with compensation costs associated with the awards recognized over the requisite service period, usually the vesting period, on a straight-line basis.

NOTE 9: CONTINGENCIES
Currently, and from time to time, we are involved in various claims, disputes, lawsuits, investigations, and legal and regulatory proceedings, including the matter described below. We accrue for contingencies if it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Because these matters are inherently unpredictable and unfavorable developments or resolutions can occur, assessing contingencies requires judgments and is highly subjective about future events, and the amount of resulting loss may differ from these estimates. We do not believe the resolution of any particular matter will have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.
On October 14, 2021, Andrew Kowlessar filed an action in the Circuit Court of the 17th Judicial Circuit in and for Broward County, Florida styled
Andrew Kowlessar, individually and on behalf of all others similarly situated vs. EZCORP, Inc. d/b/a Value Pawn & Jewelry
. The matter subsequently was amended and removed to the United States District Court of the Southern District of Florida as
Andrew Kowlessar, individually and on behalf of all others similarly situated vs. EZPAWN Florida, Inc. d/b/a Value Pawn & Jewelry
. In May 2022, the federal court action was dismissed and the case was refiled in the Circuit Court of the Eleventh Judicial Circuit in and for Miami-Dade County, Florida. The complaint, brought under Section 501.059, Florida Statutes, the Florida Telephone Solicitation Act (“Act”), alleges certain text messages were sent in violation of the Act. On June 16, 2022, the parties agreed to a settlement of all asserted claims and entered into a Settlement Agreement and Release, which was approved by the court on October 24, 2022. The Company recorded a $
2.0
million charge during the quarter ended June 30, 2022, the final payment of which was made on April 21, 2023 to the third party claims administrator for disbursement in final satisfaction of claims and related costs.

NOTE 10: SEGMENT INFORMATION
Our operations are primarily managed on a geographical basis and are comprised of
three
reportable segments. The factors for determining our reportable segments include the manner in which our chief operating decision maker evaluates performance for purposes of allocating resources and assessing performance.
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; and
•
Other Investments — primarily our equity interest in the net income (loss) of Cash Converters along with our investment in Founders and RDC.
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.
The following tables present revenue for each reportable segment, disaggregated revenue within our
three
reportable segments and Corporate, segment profits and segment contribution.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations is intended to inform the reader about matters affecting the financial condition and results of operations of EZCORP, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, “we,” “us”, “our”, "EZCORP" or the “Company”). The following discussion should be read together with our condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere within this report. This discussion contains forward-looking statements. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements. See “
Part I, Item 1A — Risk Factors
”
of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30,
2022, 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, for a discussion of certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions associated with these statements.
Business Overview
EZCORP is a Delaware corporation headquartered in Austin, Texas. We are a leading provider of pawn services in the United States and Latin America. Pawn loans are nonrecourse loans collateralized by personal property. We also sell merchandise, primarily collateral forfeited from unpaid loans or goods purchased directly from customers.
We exist to serve our customers’ short-term cash needs, helping them to live and enjoy their lives. We are focused on three strategic pillars:
Strengthen the Core
Relentless focus on superior execution and operational excellence in our core pawn business
Cost Efficiency and Simplification
Shape a culture of cost efficiency through ongoing focus on simplification and optimization
Innovate and Grow
Broaden customer engagement to service more customers more frequently in more locations
Pawn Activities
At our pawn stores, we advance cash against the value of collateralized tangible personal property. We earn pawn service charges (“PSC”) for those cash advances, and the PSC rate varies by state and transaction size. At the time of the transaction, we take possession of the pawned collateral, which consists of tangible personal property, generally jewelry, consumer electronics, tools, sporting goods or musical instruments. If the customer chooses to redeem their pawn, they will repay the amount advanced plus any accrued PSC. If the customer chooses not to redeem their pawn, the pawned collateral becomes our inventory, which we sell in our retail merchandise sales activities or, in some cases, scrap for its inherent gold or precious stone content. Consequently, the success of our pawn business is largely dependent on our ability to accurately assess the probability of pawn redemption and the estimated resale or scrap value of the collateralized personal property.
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 estimated resale or scrap value at the time the property is either accepted as pawn 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
Our strategy is to expand the number of locations we operate through opening new (“de novo”) locations and through acquisitions and investments in both Latin America, the United States and potential new markets. Our ability to open de novo stores, acquire new stores and make other related investments 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.
Seasonality and Quarterly Results
In the United States, PSC is historically highest in our fourth fiscal quarter (July through September) due to a higher average loan balance during the summer lending season. PSC is historically lowest in our third fiscal quarter (April through June) following the tax refund season and merchandise sales are highest in our first and second fiscal quarters (October through March) due to the holiday season, jewelry sales

surrounding Valentine’s Day and the availability of tax refunds. In Latin America, most of our customers 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. In Mexico, we saw similar downward pressure in loan balances during the quarter due to a recent change in law related to company profit sharing payments to employees. We believe this change will impact pawn loan balances in May and June going forward. As a net effect of these and other factors and excluding discrete charges, our consolidated income/loss before tax is generally highest in our first fiscal quarter (October through December) and lowest in our third fiscal quarter (April through June).
Financial Highlights
We remain focused on optimizing our balance of pawn loans outstanding (“PLO”) and the resulting higher PSC. The following chart presents sources of gross profit, including PSC, merchandise sales gross profit (“Merchandise sales GP”) and jewelry scrapping gross profit (“Jewelry Scrapping GP”) for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022:

Results of Operations
Non-GAAP Constant Currency and Same Store Financial Information
To supplement our condensed consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, we provide certain other non-GAAP financial information on a constant currency basis (“constant currency”) and “same store” basis. We use constant currency results to evaluate our Latin America Pawn operations, which are denominated primarily in Mexican pesos, Guatemalan quetzales and other Latin American currencies. We analyze results on a same store basis (which is defined as stores open during the entirety of the comparable periods) to better understand existing store performance without the influence of increases or decreases resulting solely from changes in store count. We believe presentation of constant currency and same store 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 better understanding and evaluation 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 rather than 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. In addition, we have an equity method investment that is denominated in Australian dollars and is translated into U.S. dollars. 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 are not directly calculable from the rates below. 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 nine months ended June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022 were as follows:

PLO improved to $50.5 million, up 14% (1% on constant currency basis). On a same store basis, PLO increased 11% (decreased 2% on a constant currency basis). PLO balance was lower than expected with a greater pay down during the quarter driven by a change in Mexican law, which significantly increased profit share required to be paid by companies to employees by May 30.
Total revenue was up 26% (15% on constant currency basis), while gross profit increased 24% (14% on a constant currency basis), reflecting increased PSC, higher merchandise sales and improved merchandise sales gross profit.
PSC increased 19% (10% on a constant currency basis) as a result of higher average PLO and yield.
Merchandise sales gross margin increased from 29% to 30%. Aged general merchandise increased to 2.4% from 1.3% of total merchandise inventory.
Net inventory increased 30% (13% on a constant currency basis), as expected with the growth in PLO. Inventory turnover remained strong at 3.4x, down from 3.7x.
Store expenses increased 26% (14% on a constant currency basis), primarily due to rent linked to inflation, higher store count and, to a lesser extent, expenses related to our loyalty program. Same-store expenses increased 21% (9% on a constant currency basis).
Segment contribution increased 59% (48% on a constant currency basis) to $9.7 million, primarily due to the reversal of contingent consideration liability in connection with a previously completed acquisition, which was recorded to “Other,” and the changes in revenue and store expenses described above.
Segment store count increased by 12 de novo stores during the quarter.

Segment contribution increased $5.9 million or 16% over the prior year quarter primarily due to improved operating results of the U.S. Pawn and Latin America Pawn segments above.
General and administrative expense decreased $0.8 million or 4%, primarily due to the litigation accrual charge of $2.0 million recorded in prior period, offset by an increase in costs primarily related to our Workday implementation.
Interest income increased $2.3 million, due primarily to our treasury management with increased market interest rates, and, to a lesser extent, loans to certain strategic investees.
Income tax expense increased $2.2 million primarily due to an increase in income before income taxes of $8.2 million this quarter compared to the prior year quarter as a result of improved operating results within the U.S. Pawn segment and the Latin American Pawn segment.
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. See Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2022 Note 11: Income Taxes of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in “Part II, Item 8 — Financial Statements and Supplemental Data” for quantification of these items.

Pawn service charges increased 19% as a result of higher average PLO for the year.
Merchandise sales increased 11% compared to the prior year. Merchandise sales increase was driven primarily by our continued focus on customer engagement and pricing merchandise to maintain strong inventory turnover. Offsetting the sales increase, merchandise sales gross margin decreased 400 bps, within our target range.
Store expenses increased 13%, primarily due to increased labor in-line with store activity, higher store count and, to a lesser extent, expenses related to our loyalty program.
Segment contribution increased $11.3 million, primarily due to the changes described above.

Merchandise sales increased 31% (22% on a constant currency basis) and 25% on a same store basis (17% on a constant currency basis). Merchandise sales increase was driven primarily by our continued focus on customer engagement, pricing merchandise to maintain strong inventory turnover and increase in stores.

Table of Contents
Store expenses increased by 29% (21% on a constant currency basis) primarily due to higher store count and increased labor in-line with store activity. On a same-store basis, store expenses increased 25% (16% on a constant currency basis) due to rising labor costs resulting from growing transaction volume.
Segment contribution increased $7.9 million, or 46%, to $25.2 million. This increase was primarily due to the reversal of contingent consideration liability in connection with a previously completed acquisition, which was recorded to “Other,” and the changes in revenue and store expenses described above.

Segment contribution decreased $11.7 million or 10% over the prior year nine months ended June 30, 2022, primarily due to the net loss on our share of losses in Cash Converters’ net results related to their non-cash goodwill impairment charge, partially offset by the improved operating results of the segments above.
General and administrative expenses increased $2.5 million or 5%, primarily due to the impact related to the reversal of incentive compensation for the departed CEO in the prior period and to a lesser extent, an overall increase in incentive-based compensation and costs primarily related to our Workday implementation, partially offset by the litigation accrual charge of $2.0 million recorded in prior period.
Interest expense increased $5.3 million, primarily driven by the net loss recorded on the partial extinguishments of the 2024 convertible notes and 2025 convertible notes, and higher average total debt outstanding at overall higher average effective interest rates due to the issuance of the 2029 convertible notes during December 2022. See Note 7: Debt to the consolidated financials for further discussion.
Income tax expense decreased $1.4 million, primarily due to a decrease in income before income taxes of $16.0 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the same prior year nine month period offset by an increase in tax expense for the non-deductible loss realized on the refinancing of the convertible notes in the current year.
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. See Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2022 Note 11: Income Taxes of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in “Part II, Item 8 — Financial Statements and Supplemental Data” for quantification of these items.

The increase in cash flows provided by operating activities year-over-year was primarily due to an increase in net income (when considering adjustments for non-cash items affecting net income) as well as changes in working capital primarily related to the timing of payments of accounts payable and prepaid expenses.
The $11.0 million decrease in cash flows used in investing activities year-over-year was primarily due to a $60.5 million increase in cash inflows from the sale of forfeited collateral, offset by $20.2 million increase in cash flows used to fund acquisitions and strategic investments and an increase of $19.7 million in net pawn lending outflows. Of the $20.2 million increase year-over-year used in funding acquisitions and other investments, the largest amount is $15.0 million related to a note receivable from Founders, as discussed in Note 5: Strategic Investments in Part I, Item 1 - Notes to Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
The $27.8 million increase in cash flows provided by financing activities was primarily related to the December 2022 financing of the 2029 Convertible Notes, in which we issued $230.0 million (less issuance costs) principal amount of 3.750% Convertible Senior Notes Due 2029 offset by the extinguishment of approximately $109.4 million aggregate principal amount of our 2024 Convertible Notes for approximately $117.5 million plus accrued interest and approximately $69.1 million aggregate principal amount of our 2025 Convertible Notes for approximately $62.9 million plus accrued interest. In addition, we used approximately $5.0 million of the net proceeds from the 2029 Convertible Notes offering to repurchase 578,703 shares of our Class A common stock from purchasers of the notes in privately negotiated transactions. Further, the Company repurchased and retired 1,037,703 shares of our Class A Common Stock for $9.0 million under the Common Stock Repurchase Program for the nine month period ended June 30, 2023.
The net effect of these changes was a $32.2 million increase in cash on hand during the current year to date period, resulting in a $246.5 million ending cash and restricted cash balance.
Sources and Uses of Cash
In December 2022, we issued $230.0 million aggregate principal amount of 2029 Convertible Notes. In conjunction with the issuance of the 2029 Convertible Notes, we extinguished approximately $109.4 million aggregate principal amount of our 2024 Convertible Notes for approximately $117.5 million plus accrued interest and approximately $69.1 million aggregate principal amount of our 2025 Convertible Notes for approximately $62.9 million plus accrued interest. In addition, we used approximately $5.0 million of the net proceeds from the 2029 Convertible Notes offering to repurchase 578,703 shares of our Class A common stock from purchasers of the notes in privately negotiated transactions. See Note 7 of Notes to Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in “Part I, Item 1 — Financial Statements.” The shares repurchased in conjunction with the transactions discussed above were authorized separately from, and not considered part of, the publicly announced share repurchase program referred to below.
On May 3, 2022, our Board authorized the repurchase of up to $50 million of our Class A Common Stock over three years. As of June 30, 2023, we have repurchased 1,275,646 shares of our Class A Common Stock under the program for $11.0 million. Execution of the program will be responsive to fluctuating market conditions and valuations, liquidity needs and the expected return on investment compared to other opportunities.
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.
35
Table of Contents
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, 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. See Note 8 of Notes to Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in “Part I, Item 1 — Financial Statements.”
We anticipate that cash flows from operations and cash on hand will be adequate to fund ongoing operations, debt service requirements, tax payments, any future stock repurchases, strategic investments, our contractual
obligations, planned de novo store growth, capital expenditures and working capital requirements through the next twelve months. We continue to explore 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.
Depending on the level of acquisition activity and other factors, our ability to repay our longer-term debt obligations, including the convertible debt maturing in 2024, 2025 and 2029, may require us to refinance these obligations through the issuance of new debt securities, equity securities, convertible securities or through new credit facilities.
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, 2022, we reported that we had $608.0 million in total contractual obligations as of September 30, 2022. There have been no material changes to this total obligation since September 30, 2022, other than the convertible debt refinancing and lease liabilities changes as further discussed in Note 7: Debt and Note 4: Leases, respectively, 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, 2022, these collectively amounted to $15.2 million.
Recently Adopted Accounting Policies and Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
We reviewed all recently issued accounting pronouncements and concluded that they were either not applicable or not expected to have a material impact on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
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,
2022 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, 2022. 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, 2022.

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 June 30, 2023. Our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that as of June 30, 2023, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2023 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Inherent Limitations on Internal Controls
Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls or our internal controls 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 control system’s objectives will be met. 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, within the Company have been detected. The design of any system of controls is based in part upon 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. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be 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,
2022, as supplemented by the information set forth below.
A recent law change in Australia could adversely impact Cash Converters’ business
In December 2022, the Australian Parliament passed the Financial Sector Reform Bill 2022, which establishes lending limits on small amount credit contracts. The bill became effective in June 2023, and could adversely impact the financial position or results of operations of Cash Converters, in which the Company has an equity investment. Cash Converters recognized a one-time, non-cash impairment expense of AUD$110.5 million against goodwill in their financial statements for the period ended December 31, 2022 and, based upon our 43.7% ownership of Cash Converters, after translation to USD, we recorded a $32.5 million equity method loss during the quarter ended March 31, 2023. A decline in the operating results of Cash Converters, if any, resulting from the change of law could adversely affect our investment.

On May 3, 2022, the Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program, under which we are authorized to repurchase up to $50 million of our Class A Non-Voting common shares over a three-year period. All repurchases under this program were 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. Execution of the program will be responsive to fluctuating market conditions and valuations, liquidity needs and the expected return on investment compared to other opportunities.
