CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES THAT MAY AFFECT FUTURE RESULTS
Forward-Looking Information
This quarterly report contains forward-looking statements about the business, financial condition, outlook and prospects of FirstCash Holdings, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries (together, the “Company”). Forward-looking statements, as that term is defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “believes,” “projects,” “expects,” “may,” “estimates,” “should,” “plans,” “targets,” “intends,” “could,” “would,” “anticipates,” “potential,” “confident,” “optimistic” or the negative thereof, or other variations thereon, or comparable terminology, or by discussions of strategy, objectives, estimates, guidance, expectations, outlook and future plans. Forward-looking statements can also be identified by the fact these statements do not relate strictly to historical or current matters. Rather, forward-looking statements relate to anticipated or expected events, activities, trends or results. Because forward-looking statements relate to matters that have not yet occurred, these statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties.
While the Company believes the expectations reflected in forward-looking statements are reasonable, there can be no assurances such expectations will prove to be accurate. Security holders are cautioned that such forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties. Certain factors may cause results to differ materially from those anticipated by the forward-looking statements made in this quarterly report. Such factors may include, without limitation, risks related to the extensive regulatory environment in which the Company operates; risks associated with the legal and regulatory proceedings that the Company is a party to or may become a party to in the future, including the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (the “CFPB”) lawsuit filed against the Company; risks related to the Company’s acquisitions, including the failure of the Company’s acquisitions to deliver the estimated value and benefits expected by the Company and the ability of the Company to continue to identify and consummate acquisitions on favorable terms, if at all; potential changes in consumer behavior and shopping patterns which could impact demand for the Company’s pawn loan, retail, lease-to-own (“LTO”) and retail finance products; labor shortages and increased labor costs; a deterioration in the economic conditions in the United States and Latin America, including as a result of inflation, elevated interest rates and higher gas prices, which potentially could have an impact on discretionary consumer spending and demand for the Company’s products; currency fluctuations, primarily involving the Mexican peso; competition the Company faces from other retailers and providers of retail payment solutions; the ability of the Company to successfully execute on its business strategies; contraction in sales activity at merchant partners of the Company’s retail POS payment solutions business; and other risks discussed and described in the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), including the risks described in Part 1, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” thereof, and other reports filed with the SEC. Many of these risks and uncertainties are beyond the ability of the Company to control, nor can the Company predict, in many cases, all of the risks and uncertainties that could cause its actual results to differ materially from those indicated by the forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements contained in this quarterly report speak only as of the date of this quarterly report, and the Company expressly disclaims any obligation or undertaking to report any updates or revisions to any such statement to reflect any change in the Company’s expectations or any change in events, conditions or circumstances on which any such statement is based, except as required by law.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited)
Note 1 -
General
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2023, which is derived from audited consolidated financial statements, and the unaudited consolidated financial statements, including the notes thereto, includes the accounts of FirstCash Holdings, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (together, the “Company”). The Company regularly makes acquisitions, and the results of operations for the acquisitions have been consolidated since the acquisition dates. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
These unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the rules and regulations for reporting on Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include certain information and disclosures required for comprehensive financial statements. These interim period financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements, which are included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, filed with the SEC on February 5, 2024. The consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2024 and 2023, and for the three month and six month periods ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, are unaudited, but in management’s opinion include all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flow for such interim periods. Operating results for the periods ended June 30, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year.
The Company has pawn operations in Latin America, where in Mexico, Guatemala and Colombia, the functional currency is the Mexican peso, Guatemalan quetzal and Colombian peso. Accordingly, the assets and liabilities of these subsidiaries are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate in effect at each balance sheet date, and the resulting adjustments are accumulated in other comprehensive income (loss) as a separate component of stockholders’ equity. Revenues and expenses are translated at the average exchange rates occurring during the respective period. The Company also has pawn operations in El Salvador, where the reporting and functional currency is the U.S. dollar.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of interim financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and related revenue and expenses, and the disclosure of gain and loss contingencies at the date of the financial statements. Such estimates and assumptions are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, which may cause actual results to differ materially from the Company’s estimates.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In October 2023, the FASB issued ASU No 2023-06, “Disclosure Agreements – Codification Amendments in Response to the SEC’s Disclosure Update and Simplification Initiative” (“ASU 2023-06”). ASU 2023-06 will align the disclosure and presentation requirements in the FASB Accounting Standards Codification with the SEC’s regulations. The amendments in ASU 2023-06 will be applied prospectively and are effective when the SEC removes the related requirements from Regulations S-X or S-K. Any amendments the SEC does not remove by June 30, 2027 will not be effective. As the Company is currently subject to these SEC requirements, ASU 2023-06 is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s current financial position, results of operations or financial statement disclosures.
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU No 2023-07, “Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures” (“ASU 2023-07”). ASU 2023-07 expands disclosures about a public entity’s reportable segments and requires more enhanced information about a reportable segment’s expenses, interim segment profit or loss, and how a public entity’s chief operating decision maker uses reported segment profit or loss information in assessing segment performance and allocating resources. ASU 2023-07 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. ASU 2023-07 should be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company does not expect ASU 2023-07 to have a material effect on the Company’s current financial position, results of operations or financial statement disclosures.

Table of Contents
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No 2023-09, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures” (“ASU 2023-09”). ASU 2023-09 expands disclosures in the rate reconciliation and requires disclosure of income taxes paid by jurisdiction. ASU 2023-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. ASU 2023-09 should be applied prospectively; however, retrospective application is permitted. The Company does not expect ASU 2023-09 to have a material effect on the Company’s current financial position, results of operations or financial statement disclosures.
In March 2024, the FASB issued ASU No 2024-02, “Codification Improvements - Amendments to Remove References to the Concepts Statements” (“ASU 2024-02”). ASU 2024-02 removes references to various Concepts Statements. In most instances, the references are extraneous and not required to understand or apply the guidance. ASU 2024-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. ASU 2024-02 can be applied prospectively or retrospectively. The Company adopted ASU 2024-02 effective January 1, 2024 on a prospective basis. The adoption of ASU 2024-02 did not have a material effect on the Company’s current financial position, results of operations or financial statement disclosures

Acquisitions
Consistent with the Company’s strategy to continue its expansion of pawn stores in strategic markets, during the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company acquired
27
pawn stores in the U.S. in
four
separate transactions and acquired
one
pawn license that was used to open
one
new pawn store in the state of Nevada. The aggregate purchase price for these acquisitions totaled $
99.2
million, net of cash acquired and subject to future post-closing adjustments. The aggregate purchase price was composed of $
65.0
million in cash, $
29.3
million in stock consideration and remaining short-term amounts payable to certain of the sellers of approximately $
4.9
million. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company also paid $
0.7
million of purchase price amounts payable related to prior-year pawn acquisitions.
The purchase price of each of the 2024 acquisitions was allocated to assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon the estimated fair values at the date of acquisition. The excess purchase price over the estimated fair value of the net assets acquired has been recorded as goodwill. The goodwill arising from these acquisitions consists largely of the synergies and economies of scale expected from combining the operations of the Company and the pawn stores acquired. These acquisitions were not material individually or in the aggregate to the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Operating Leases
Lessor
For information about the Company’s revenue-generating activities as a lessor, refer to the “Leased merchandise and revenue recognition” section of Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K. All of the Company’s lease agreements are considered operating leases.
Lessee
The Company leases the majority of its pawnshop locations and certain administrative offices under operating leases and determines if an arrangement is or contains a lease at inception. Many leases include both lease and non-lease components for which the Company accounts separately. Lease components include rent, taxes and insurance costs while non-lease components include common area or other maintenance costs. Operating leases are included in operating lease right of use assets, lease liability, current and lease liability, non-current in the consolidated balance sheets. The Company does not have any finance leases.
Leased facilities are generally leased for a term of
three
to
five years
with one or more options to renew for an additional
three
to
five years
, typically at the Company’s sole discretion. In addition, the majority of these leases can be terminated early upon an adverse change in law which negatively affects the store’s profitability. The Company regularly evaluates renewal and termination options to determine if the Company is reasonably certain to exercise the option, and excludes these options from the lease term included in the recognition of the operating lease right of use asset and lease liability until such certainty exists. The weighted-average remaining lease term for operating leases was
4.1
years as of June 30, 2024 and
3.9
years as of June 30, 2023.
The operating lease right of use asset and lease liability is recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at the commencement date. The Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate, and therefore, it uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the lease commencement date in determining the present value of the lease payments. The Company utilizes a portfolio approach for determining the incremental borrowing rate to apply to groups of leases with similar characteristics. The weighted-average discount rate used to measure the lease liability as of June 30, 2024 and 2023 was
8.3
% and
7.3
%, respectively.
The Company has certain operating leases in Mexico which are denominated in U.S. dollars. The liability related to these leases is considered a monetary liability and requires remeasurement each reporting period into the functional currency (Mexican pesos) using reporting date exchange rates. The remeasurement results in the recognition of foreign currency exchange gains or losses each reporting period, which can produce a certain level of earnings volatility. The Company recognized a foreign currency loss of $
1.9
million and a gain of $
1.1
million during the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, related to the remeasurement of these U.S. dollar-denominated operating leases, which is included in loss (gain) on foreign

exchange in the accompanying consolidated statements of income. During the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company recognized a foreign currency loss of $
1.6
million and a gain of $
2.3
million, respectively, related to these U.S. dollar denominated leases.
Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term, with variable lease expense recognized in the period such payments are incurred.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The fair value of financial instruments is determined by reference to various market data and other valuation techniques, as appropriate. Financial assets and liabilities are classified based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment, and may affect the valuation of the fair value of assets and liabilities and their placement within the fair value hierarchy levels. The three fair value levels are (from highest to lowest):
Level 1: Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2: Observable market-based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data.
Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data.
Recurring Fair Value Measurements
The Company did not have any financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2024, June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2023.
Fair Value Measurements on a Non-Recurring Basis
The Company measures non-financial assets and liabilities, such as property and equipment and intangible assets, at fair value on a non-recurring basis, or when events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may be impaired. There were no such events or conditions identified during the six months ended June 30, 2024.

Finance receivables, gross as of December 31, 2023 were $
227.5
million. See Note 6.
As cash and cash equivalents have maturities of less than three months, the carrying value of cash and cash equivalents approximates fair value. Due to their short-term maturities, the carrying value of pawn loans and accounts receivable, net approximate fair value.
Finance receivables are measured at amortized cost, net of an allowance for loan losses on the consolidated balance sheets. In estimating fair value for finance receivables, the Company utilized a discounted cash flow methodology. The Company used various unobservable inputs reflecting its own assumptions, such as contractual future principal and interest cash flows, future charge-off rates and discount rates (which consider current interest rates and are adjusted for credit risk, among other factors).
The carrying value of the unsecured credit facilities approximates fair value as of June 30, 2024, June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2023. The fair value of the unsecured credit facilities is estimated based on market values for debt issuances with similar characteristics or rates currently available for debt with similar terms. In addition, the unsecured credit facilities have a variable interest rate based on the prevailing secured overnight financing rate (“SOFR”) or the Mexican Central Bank’s interbank equilibrium rate (“TIIE”) and reprice with any changes in SOFR or TIIE. The fair value of the senior unsecured notes is estimated based on quoted prices in markets that are not active.

% senior unsecured notes due on September 1, 2028 (the “2028 Notes”), all of which are currently outstanding. Interest on the 2028 Notes is payable semi-annually in arrears on March 1 and September 1. The 2028 Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis jointly and severally by all of the Company's existing and future domestic subsidiaries that guarantee its Credit Facility. The 2028 Notes will permit the Company to make restricted payments, such as purchasing shares of its stock and paying cash dividends, in an unlimited amount if, after giving pro forma effect to the incurrence of any indebtedness to make such payment, the Company's consolidated total debt ratio is less than
2.75
to 1. The consolidated total debt ratio is defined generally in the indenture governing the 2028 Notes as the ratio of (1) the total consolidated debt of the Company minus cash and cash equivalents of the Company to (2) the Company’s consolidated trailing twelve months EBITDA, as adjusted to exclude certain non-recurring expenses and giving pro forma effect to operations acquired during the measurement period. As of June 30, 2024, the Company’s consolidated total debt ratio was
2.7
to 1. While the 2028 Notes generally limit the Company’s ability to make restricted payments if the consolidated total debt ratio is greater than
2.75
to 1, restricted payments are allowable within certain permitted baskets, which currently provide the Company with continued flexibility to make restricted payments when the Company’s consolidated total debt ratio is greater than
2.75
to 1.
Senior Unsecured Notes Due 2030
On December 13, 2021, the Company issued $
550.0
million of
5.625
% senior unsecured notes due on January 1, 2030 (the “2030 Notes”), all of which are currently outstanding. Interest on the 2030 Notes is payable semi-annually in arrears on January 1 and July 1. The 2030 Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis jointly and severally by all of the Company's existing and future domestic subsidiaries that guarantee its Credit Facility. The 2030 Notes will permit the Company to make restricted payments, such as purchasing shares of its stock and paying cash dividends, in an unlimited amount if, after giving pro forma effect to the incurrence of any indebtedness to make such payment, the Company's consolidated total debt ratio is less than
3.0
to 1. The consolidated total debt ratio is defined generally in the indenture governing the 2030 Notes as the ratio of (1) the total consolidated debt of the Company minus cash and cash equivalents of the Company to (2) the Company’s consolidated trailing twelve months EBITDA, as adjusted to exclude certain non-recurring expenses and giving pro forma effect to operations acquired during the measurement period. As of June 30, 2024, the Company’s consolidated total debt ratio was
2.7

3.0

3.0

Senior Unsecured Notes Due 2032
On February 21, 2024, the Company issued $
500.0
million of
6.875
% senior unsecured notes due on March 1, 2032 (the “2032 Notes”), all of which are currently outstanding. Interest on the 2032 Notes is payable semi-annually in arrears on March 1 and September 1, commencing on September 1, 2024. The 2032 Notes were sold in a private placement in reliance on Rule 144A and Regulation S under the Securities Act. The Company used the net proceeds from the offering to repay a portion of the outstanding balance on the Credit Facility, after payment of fees and expenses related to the offering. The Company capitalized $
9.1
million in debt issuance costs, which consisted primarily of the initial purchaser’s discount and fees and legal and other professional expenses. The debt issuance costs are being amortized over the life of the 2032 Notes as a component of interest expense and are carried as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the 2032 Notes in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

The 2032 Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis jointly and severally by all of the Company's existing and future domestic subsidiaries that guarantee its Credit Facility. The 2032 Notes will permit the Company to make restricted payments, such as purchasing shares of its stock and paying cash dividends, in an unlimited amount if, after giving pro forma effect to the incurrence of any indebtedness to make such payment, the Company's consolidated total debt ratio is less than
3.0
to 1. The consolidated total debt ratio is defined generally in the indenture governing the 2032 Notes (the “2032 Notes Indenture”) as the ratio of (1) the total consolidated debt of the Company minus cash and cash equivalents of the Company to (2) the Company’s consolidated trailing twelve months EBITDA, as adjusted to exclude certain non-recurring expenses and giving pro forma effect to operations acquired during the measurement period. As of June 30, 2024, the Company’s consolidated total debt ratio was
2.7
to 1. While the 2032 Notes generally limit the Company’s ability to make restricted payments if the consolidated total debt ratio is greater than
3.0
to 1, restricted payments are allowable within certain permitted baskets, which currently provides the Company with continued flexibility to make restricted payments when the Company’s consolidated total debt ratio is greater than
3.0
to 1.
The Company may redeem some or all of the 2032 Notes at any time on or after March 1, 2027, at the redemption prices set forth in the 2032 Notes Indenture, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any. In addition, prior to March 1, 2027, the Company may redeem some or all of the 2032 Notes at a price equal to
100
% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, plus a “make-whole” premium set forth in the 2032 Notes Indenture. The Company may redeem up to
40
% of the 2032 Notes on or prior to March 1, 2027 with the proceeds of certain equity offerings at the redemption prices set forth in the 2032 Notes Indenture. If the Company or any of its restricted subsidiaries sells certain assets or if the Company consummates certain change in control transactions, the Company will be required to make an offer to repurchase the 2032 Notes.
Note 9 -
Commitments and Contingencies
Litigation
The Company, in the ordinary course of business, is a party to various legal and regulatory proceedings and other general claims. Although no assurances can be given, in management’s opinion, such outstanding proceedings are not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
The Company believes it has meritorious defenses to all of the claims described below and intends to vigorously defend itself against such claims. However, legal and regulatory proceedings involve an inherent level of uncertainty and no assurances can be given regarding the ultimate outcome of any such matters or whether an adverse outcome would not have a material adverse impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. At this stage, the Company is unable to determine whether a future loss will be incurred for any of its material outstanding legal and regulatory proceedings or to estimate a range of loss with respect to such proceeding, if any, and accordingly, no material amounts have been accrued in the Company’s financial statements for legal and regulatory proceedings.
On November 12, 2021, the CFPB initiated a civil action in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Texas (the “N.D. Texas Court”) against FirstCash, Inc. and Cash America West, Inc., two of the Company’s subsidiaries, alleging violations of the Military Lending Act (“MLA”) in connection with pawn transactions. The CFPB also alleges that these same alleged violations of the MLA constitute breaches of a 2013 CFPB consent order entered into by its predecessor company that, among other things, allegedly required the company and its successors to cease and desist from further MLA violations. The CFPB is seeking an injunction, redress for affected borrowers and a civil monetary penalty. After an initial period of pre-trial activity, the case was stayed on November 4, 2022, pending the Supreme Court review of the Fifth Circuit's decision in
Community Financial v. CFPB
, where the Fifth Circuit held the CFPB’s funding mechanism was unconstitutional and its ensuing actions were void. The Supreme Court reversed that decision through an opinion issued on May 16, 2024. The N.D. Texas Court then issued a scheduling order on June 18, 2024, with the case currently scheduled for trial in June of 2025. On July 2, 2024, the CFPB renewed their prior motion to strike certain affirmative defenses of the Company. The Company intends to vigorously oppose that motion and defend the action.
Gold Forward Sales Contracts
As of June 30, 2024, the Company had contractual commitments to deliver a total of
84,500
gold ounces between the months of July 2024 and June 2026 at a weighted-average price of $
2,171
per ounce. The ounces required to be delivered over this time period are less than the historical volume of scrap gold normally produced, and the Company expects to have the required gold ounces to meet the commitments as they come due.

ITEM 2.
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion of financial condition, results of operations, liquidity and capital resources of FirstCash Holdings, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (together, the “Company”) should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included under Part I, Item 1 of this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, as well as with the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.
GENERAL
The Company’s primary line of business is the operation of retail pawn stores, also known as “pawnshops,” which focus on serving cash- and credit-constrained consumers. The Company is the leading operator of pawn stores in the U.S. and Latin America. Pawn stores help customers meet small short-term cash needs by providing non-recourse pawn loans and buying merchandise directly from customers. Personal property, such as jewelry, electronics, tools, appliances, sporting goods and musical instruments, is pledged and held as collateral for the pawn loans over the typical 30-day term of the loan. Pawn stores also generate retail sales primarily from the merchandise acquired through collateral forfeitures and over-the-counter purchases from customers.

Retail Merchandise Sales Operations
U.S. retail merchandise sales increased 17%, totaling $230.1 million during the second quarter of 2024 compared to $196.0 million for the second quarter of 2023. Same-store retail sales increased 7% in the second quarter of 2024 compared to the second quarter of 2023. The increase in total retail sales was primarily due to incremental sales contributions from acquired stores. The gross profit margin on retail merchandise sales in the U.S. was 42% in the second quarter of 2024 and 43% in the second quarter of 2023, reflecting continued demand for value-priced, pre-owned merchandise and low levels of aged inventory.
U.S. inventories increased 24% from $180.4 million at June 30, 2023 to $223.4 million at June 30, 2024. The increase was primarily due to incremental inventories from acquired stores and an increase in same-store inventories as a result of the higher pawn loan balances noted below. Inventories aged greater than one year in the U.S. decreased to 1% at June 30, 2024 compared to 2% at June 30, 2023.
Pawn Lending Operations
U.S. pawn loan receivables as of June 30, 2024 increased 22% in total and 11% on a same-store basis compared to June 30, 2023. The increase in total pawn receivables was due to incremental pawn loans from acquired stores and an increase in same-store pawn receivables, which the Company believes was primarily due to continued inflationary pressures driving additional demand for pawn loans and tightened underwriting for other competing forms of consumer credit.
U.S. pawn loan fees increased 22% to $120.3 million during the second quarter of 2024 compared to $99.0 million for the second quarter of 2023. Same-store pawn fees in the second quarter of 2024 increased 12% compared to the second quarter of 2023. The increase in total and same-store pawn loan fees was primarily due to store growth and continued growth in demand for pawn loans.

Segment Expenses
U.S. operating expenses increased 16% to $125.2 million during the second quarter of 2024 compared to $108.2 million during the second quarter of 2023. The increase in operating expenses was primarily due to store growth.
Segment Pre-Tax Operating Income
The U.S. segment pre-tax operating income for the second quarter of 2024 was $90.6 million, which generated a pre-tax segment operating margin of 24% compared to $72.4 million and 23% in the prior year, respectively. The increase in the segment pre-tax operating income and margin reflected increased net revenue from both acquired and existing stores partially offset by an increase in segment expenses.

Latin America Pawn Segment
Latin American segment pre-tax operating income for the three months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023 benefited from a 3% favorable change in the average value of the Mexican peso compared to the U.S. dollar. The translated value of Latin American earning assets as of June 30, 2024 compared to June 30, 2023 was also impacted by an 8% unfavorable change in the end-of-period Mexican peso compared to the U.S. dollar. Constant currency results are non-GAAP financial measures, which exclude the effects of foreign currency translation and are calculated by translating current-year results at prior-year average exchange rates. See the “Constant Currency Results” section in “Non-GAAP Financial Information” below for additional discussion of constant currency operating results.
The following table presents segment pre-tax operating income and other operating metrics of the Latin America pawn segment for the three months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023 (dollars in thousands). Operating expenses include salary and benefit expenses of pawn store-level employees, occupancy costs, bank charges, security, insurance, utilities, supplies and other costs incurred by the pawn stores.

Retail Merchandise Sales Operations
Latin America retail merchandise sales increased 6% (3% on a constant currency basis) to $134.4 million during the second quarter of 2024 compared to $126.6 million for the second quarter of 2023. Same-store retail sales also increased 6% (3% on a constant currency basis) during the second quarter of 2024 compared to the second quarter of 2023. The increase in total and same-store retail sales was primarily due to increased inventory levels during the second quarter of 2024 compared to the second quarter of 2023 and greater demand for value-priced, pre-owned merchandise. The gross profit margin on retail merchandise sales was 36% during the second quarter of 2024 compared to 35% during the second quarter of 2023.
Latin America inventories increased 6% (14% on a constant currency basis) from $86.7 million at June 30, 2023 to $92.0 million at June 30, 2024. The increased inventories were primarily due to increases in pawn loan receivable balances over the past several quarters creating more forfeited inventory. Inventories aged greater than one year in Latin America were 1% at both June 30, 2024 and 2023.

Table of Contents
Pawn Lending Operations
Latin America pawn loan receivables were flat (8% increase on a constant currency basis) as of June 30, 2024 compared to June 30, 2023. On a same-store basis, pawn loan receivables increased 1% (8% on a constant currency basis) as of June 30, 2024 compared to June 30, 2023. The increase in constant currency total and same-store pawn receivables is primarily due to increasing demand for pawn loans and larger loan sizes driven in part by a slightly increased mix of higher value jewelry loans.
Latin America pawn loan fees increased 10% (7% on a constant currency basis), totaling $60.7 million during the second quarter of 2024 compared to $55.2 million for the second quarter of 2023. Same-store pawn fees also increased 10% (7% on a constant currency basis) in the second quarter of 2024 compared to the second quarter of 2023. The increase in total and same-store constant currency pawn loan fees was primarily due to increased average pawn loan receivable balances outstanding during the second quarter of 2024 compared to the second quarter of 2023.
Segment Expenses
Operating expenses increased 14% (11% on a constant currency basis) to $67.9 million during the second quarter of 2024 compared to $59.5 million during the second quarter of 2023. Same-store operating expenses increased 12% (9% on a constant currency basis) compared to the prior-year period. The increase in total and same-store constant currency operating expenses was primarily driven by increased store counts, accelerated store opening activity, general inflationary impacts and continued increases in the federally mandated minimum wage and increased costs associated with required employee benefit programs.
Segment Pre-Tax Operating Income
The segment pre-tax operating income for the second quarter of 2024 was $37.1 million, which generated a pre-tax segment operating margin of 18% compared to $37.7 million and 20% in the prior year, respectively. The decrease in the segment pre-tax operating income and margin reflected the increase in operating expenses, partially offset by an increase in net revenue.

LTO Operations
Leased merchandise, before allowance for lease losses, decreased 4% as of June 30, 2024 compared to June 30, 2023. The decrease was primarily due to decreased transaction volumes and a slight increase in the number of customers taking advantage of the early buyout or other early payment options.
The allowance for lease losses decreased 7% to $103.3 million as of June 30, 2024 compared to $111.0 million as of June 30, 2023, which was primarily due to the decrease in leased merchandise. As a percentage of lease merchandise, the allowance was 42% at June 30, 2024 and 43% at June 30, 2023.
Leased merchandise income increased 3% to $194.6 million during the second quarter of 2024 compared to $189.8 million during the second quarter of 2023, which was primarily due to higher average leased merchandise balances outstanding during the second quarter of 2024 compared to the second quarter of 2023.
Depreciation of leased merchandise increased 7% to $110.6 million during the second quarter of 2024 compared to $103.1 million during the second quarter of 2023. As a percentage of leased merchandise income, depreciation of leased merchandise increased from 54% during the second quarter of 2023 to 57% during the second quarter of 2024 primarily as a result of a slight increase in the number of customers taking advantage of the early buyout or other early payment options.
Provision for lease losses decreased 10% to $47.8 million during the second quarter of 2024 compared to $53.0 million during the second quarter of 2023, which was primarily due to a slight decrease in lease loss provisioning rates used during the second quarter of 2024 compared to the second quarter of 2023 and the 5% decrease in gross transaction volumes. As a percentage of gross transaction volume, the provision for lease losses decreased from 34% during the second quarter of 2023 to 33% during the second quarter of 2024.
Retail Finance Operations
Finance receivables, before allowance for loan losses, increased 1% as of June 30, 2024 compared to June 30, 2023. The increase was primarily due to increased transaction volumes.
The allowance for loan losses increased 7% to $100.0 million as of June 30, 2024 compared to $93.1 million as of June 30, 2023, which was primarily due to the increase in finance receivables and a slight increase in loan loss provisioning rates used during the second quarter of 2024 compared to the second quarter of 2023. As a percentage of finance receivables, the allowance was 46% at June 30, 2023 compared to 49% at June 30, 2024.
Interest and fees on finance receivables decreased 2% to $56.8 million during the second quarter of 2024 compared to $58.2 million during the second quarter of 2023, which was primarily due to a slight decline in portfolio yield primarily as a result of AFF expanding its offerings and merchant relationships in certain services sector verticals in the second quarter of 2024, some of which provide slightly lower interest rates.
Provision for loan losses increased 10% to $31.1 million during the second quarter of 2024 compared to $28.2 million during the second quarter of 2023, which was primarily due to a slight increase in loan loss provisioning rates used during the second quarter of 2024 compared to the second quarter of 2023 and the 3% increase in gross transaction volumes. As a percentage of gross transaction volume, the provision for loan losses increased from 28% during the second quarter of 2023 to 30% during the second quarter of 2024.
Segment Expenses
Operating expenses decreased 5% to $35.3 million during the second quarter of 2024 compared to $37.1 million during the second quarter of 2023, which was primarily due to lower receivable acquisition costs, the realization of information technology cost synergies from the Company’s acquisition of AFF and decreased variable costs associated with the 2% decrease in gross transaction volumes. As a percentage of segment revenues, operating expenses decreased slightly from 15% during the second quarter of 2023 to 14% during the second quarter of 2024.

Corporate Expenses and Taxes
Administrative expenses increased 13% to $45.6 million during the second quarter of 2024 compared to $40.4 million in the second quarter of 2023, primarily due to increased incentive compensation expense, the increase in pawn store count and a 3% change in the average value of the Mexican peso resulting in higher U.S. dollar translated administrative expenses in Latin America.

Depreciation and amortization decreased 10% to $13.2 million during the second quarter of 2024 compared to $14.8 million in the second quarter of 2023, primarily due to a $1.7 million decrease in amortization of acquired AFF intangible assets.

Table of Contents
Interest expense increased 20% to $25.2 million during the second quarter of 2024 compared to $21.1 million in the second quarter of 2023, primarily due to higher floating interest rates on the Company’s unsecured bank credit facilities and higher average total long-term debt balances outstanding. See Note 8 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements and “Liquidity and Capital Resources.”

Same-store retail sales increased 7% (1% on a constant currency basis) during the six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2023. The increase in total and same-store retail sales was primarily due to increased inventory levels throughout the first half of 2024 and greater demand for value-priced, pre-owned merchandise. The gross profit margin on retail merchandise sales was 36% during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 35% during the six months ended June 30, 2023.
Pawn Lending Operations
Latin America pawn loan fees increased 13% (6% on a constant currency basis) to $117.3 million during the six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to $104.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. Same-store pawn fees also increased 13% (6% on a constant currency basis) during the six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2023.

Same-store operating expenses increased 15% (9% on a constant currency basis) compared to the prior-year period.

Segment Pre-Tax Operating Income
The segment pre-tax operating income for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was $69.0 million, which generated a pre-tax segment operating margin of 17% compared to $70.6 million and 19% in the prior year, respectively.

LTO Operations
Leased merchandise income increased 7% to $400.2 million during the six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to $373.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, which was primarily due to higher leased merchandise balances outstanding during the six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2023.
Depreciation of leased merchandise increased 13% to $231.3 million during the six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to $205.2 million during the six months ended June 30, 2023. As a percentage of leased merchandise income, depreciation of leased merchandise increased from 55% during the six months ended June 30, 2023 to 58% during the six months ended June 30, 2024 primarily as a result of a slight increase in customers taking advantage of early buyout or other early payment options.
Provision for lease losses decreased 11% to $91.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to $102.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, which was primarily due to a slight decrease in lease loss provisioning rates used during the six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2023 and the 1% decrease in gross transaction volumes. As a percentage of gross transaction volume, the provision for lease losses decreased from 33% during the six months ended June 30, 2023 to 30% during the six months ended June 30, 2024.
Retail Finance Operations
Interest and fees on finance receivables increased 1% to $114.2 million during the six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to $112.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The increase was primarily due to the higher year-over-year finance receivable balances, partially offset by a slight decline in portfolio yield primarily as a result of AFF expanding its offerings and merchant relationships in certain services sector verticals in the six months ended June 30, 2024, some of which provide slightly lower interest rates.
Provision for loan losses increased 7% to $61.5 million during the six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to $57.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, which was primarily due to a slight increase in loan loss provisioning rates used during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and the 4% increase in gross transaction volumes. As a percentage of gross transaction volume, the provision for loan losses increased from 29% during the six months ended June 30, 2023 to 30% during the six months ended June 30, 2024.
Segment Expenses
Operating expenses decreased 1% to $70.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to $70.6 million during the six months ended June 30, 2023, which was primarily due to lower receivable acquisition costs, the realization of information technology cost synergies from the Company’s acquisition of AFF, partially offset by increased variable costs associated with the 1% increase in gross transaction volumes. As a percentage of segment revenues, operating expenses decreased slightly from 15% during the six months ended June 30, 2023 to 14% during the six months ended June 30, 2024.
Segment Pre-Tax Operating Income
The retail POS payment solutions segment pre-tax operating income for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was $59.1 million compared to $49.0 million in the six months ended June 30, 2023. The increase was primarily the result of increased segment income resulting from increases in net revenue and a decrease in segment expenses.

Corporate Expenses and Taxes
Administrative expenses increased 12% to $88.6 million during the six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to $79.4 million during the six months ended June 30, 2023, primarily due to increased incentive compensation expense, the increase in pawn store count and a 6% change in the average value of the Mexican peso resulting in higher U.S. dollar translated administrative expenses in Latin America. As a percentage of revenue, administrative expenses were 5% during both the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2024.
Depreciation and amortization decreased 11% to $26.4 million during the six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to $29.8 million in the six months ended June 30, 2023, primarily due to a $3.7 million decrease in amortization of acquired AFF intangible assets.
Interest expense increased 21% to $50.6 million during the six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to $42.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, primarily due to higher floating interest rates on the Company’s unsecured bank credit facilities and higher average total long-term debt balances outstanding. See Note 8 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements and “Liquidity and Capital Resources.”

Table of Contents
Consolidated effective income tax rates for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 were 25.4% and 25.2%, respectively.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Material Capital Requirements
The Company’s primary capital requirements include:
•
Expand pawn operations through growth of pawn receivables and inventories in existing stores, new store openings, strategic acquisitions of pawn stores and purchases of underlying real estate at existing locations;
•
Expand retail POS payment solutions operations through growth of the business generated from new and existing merchant partners; and
•
Return capital to shareholders through dividends and stock repurchases.
Other material capital requirements include operating expenses (see Note 4 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements regarding operating lease commitments), maintenance capital expenditures related to its facilities, technology platforms, general corporate operating activities, income tax payments and debt service, among others. Net interest expense is expected to increase in 2024 compared to 2023 due to (i) increased borrowings primarily undertaken to fund recent acquisitions and (ii) anticipated higher floating interest rates on the borrowings under the revolving credit facilities. The Company believes that net cash provided by operating activities and available and unused funds under its revolving unsecured credit facilities will be adequate to meet its liquidity and capital needs for these items over the next 12 months and also in the longer-term beyond the next 12 months.
Expand Pawn Operations
The Company intends to continue expansion of its pawn operations through growth of pawn receivables and inventories in existing stores along with new store openings and acquisitions.
During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company acquired 27 pawn stores in the U.S. and acquired one pawn license that was used to open a pawn store in the state of Nevada for a cumulative purchase price of $99.2 million, net of cash acquired and subject to future post-closing adjustments. The Company evaluates potential acquisitions based upon growth potential, purchase price, available liquidity, strategic fit and quality of management personnel, among other factors.
The Company has opened 40 new (“de novo”) stores in total through June 30, 2024 and for the full year of 2024 expects to add approximately 90 to 100 total new locations through new store openings and acquisitions. Future store openings are subject to the Company’s ability to identify locations in markets with attractive demographics, available real estate with favorable leases and limited competition.
Although viewed by management as a discretionary expenditure not required to operate its pawn stores, the Company may continue to strategically purchase real estate from its landlords at existing stores or in conjunction with pawn store acquisitions as opportunities arise at reasonable valuations. The Company purchased the real estate at 19 store locations, primarily from landlords at existing stores, for a cumulative purchase price of $21.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2024.
Expand Retail POS Payment Solutions Operations
AFF expects to expand its business primarily by promoting and expanding relationships with both new and existing customers and retail merchant partners. In addition, AFF has made, and intends to continue to make, investments in its customer and merchant support operations and facilities, its technology platforms and its proprietary decisioning platforms and processes. In addition to utilizing cash flows generated from its own operations to fund expected 2024 growth, AFF has access to the additional sources of liquidity described below if needed to fund further expansion activities.

Return of Capital to Shareholders
In July 2024, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a $0.38 per share third quarter cash dividend on common shares outstanding, or an aggregate of $17.0 million based on the June 30, 2024 share count, to be paid on August 30, 2024 to stockholders of record as of August 15, 2024. While the Company currently expects to continue the payment of quarterly cash dividends, the amount, declaration and payment of cash dividends in the future (quarterly or otherwise) will be made by the Board of Directors, from time to time, subject to the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, business requirements, compliance with legal requirements, debt covenant restrictions and other relevant factors.
During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company repurchased a total of 721,000 shares of common stock at an aggregate cost of $85.0 million and an average cost per share of $117.90. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company repurchased 1,153,000 shares of common stock at an aggregate cost of $105.6 million and an average cost per share of $91.48. The aggregate cost and average cost per share does not include the effect of the 1% excise tax on certain share repurchases enacted under the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022. The Company incurred $0.9 million and $1.1 million of excise taxes during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
In July 2023, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized a common stock repurchase program for up to $200.0 million of the Company’s outstanding common stock, of which $115.0 million is currently remaining. The Company intends to continue repurchases under its active share repurchase program, including through open market transactions under trading plans in accordance with Rule 10b5-1 and Rule 10b-18 under the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, subject to a variety of factors, including, but not limited to, the level of cash balances, liquidity needs, credit availability, debt covenant restrictions, general business and economic conditions, regulatory requirements, the market price of the Company’s stock, the Company’s dividend policy and the availability of alternative investment opportunities.
Sources of Liquidity
The Company regularly evaluates opportunities to optimize its capital structure, including through consideration of the issuance of debt or equity, to refinance existing debt and to enter into interest rate hedge transactions, such as interest rate swap agreements. As of June 30, 2024, the Company’s primary sources of liquidity were $113.7 million in cash and cash equivalents and $519.8 million of available and unused funds under the Company’s revolving unsecured credit facilities, subject to certain financial covenants (see Note 8 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements). The Company had working capital of $957.7 million as of June 30, 2024.
The Company’s cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2024 included $29.0 million held by its foreign subsidiaries. These cash balances, which are primarily held in Mexican pesos, are associated with foreign earnings the Company has asserted are indefinitely reinvested and which the Company primarily plans to use to support its continued growth plans outside the U.S. through funding of capital expenditures, acquisitions, operating expenses or other similar cash needs of the Company’s foreign operations.
The Company’s liquidity is affected by a number of factors, including changes in general customer traffic and demand, pawn loan balances, loan-to-value ratios, collection of pawn fees, merchandise sales, inventory levels, LTO merchandise, finance receivable balances, collection of lease and finance receivable payments, seasonality, operating expenses, administrative expenses, expenses related to merger and acquisition activities, litigation-related expenses, tax rates, gold prices, foreign currency exchange rates and the pace of new pawn store expansion and acquisitions. Additionally, a prolonged reduction in earnings and EBITDA could limit the Company’s future ability to fully borrow on its credit facilities under current leverage covenants. Regulatory developments affecting the Company’s operations may also impact profitability and liquidity. See “Governmental Regulation Update.”
If needed, the Company could seek to raise additional funds from a variety of sources, including, but not limited to, repatriation of excess cash held in Latin America, the sale of assets, reductions in operating expenses, capital expenditures and dividends, the forbearance or deferral of operating expenses, the issuance of debt or equity securities, utilizing other structured financing arrangements, the leveraging of currently unencumbered real estate owned by the Company and/or changes to its management of current assets. The characteristics of the Company’s current assets, specifically the ability to rapidly liquidate gold jewelry inventory, which accounts for 50% of total inventory, give the Company flexibility to quickly increase cash flow if necessary.

GOVERNMENTAL REGULATION UPDATE
The Company’s pawn and retail POS payment solutions businesses are subject to significant regulation in all of the jurisdictions in which it operates. Existing regulations and regulatory developments are further and more completely described under “Governmental Regulation” in Part I, Item 1 of the Company’s 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 5, 2024 and in subsequent documents filed with the SEC. Other than as described below, there have been no changes to the significant regulation that the Company’s businesses are subject to that the Company believes would have a material impact on its businesses or results of operation from those described in the
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.
On October 5, 2017, the CFPB released its small-dollar loan rule (the “SDL Rule”), which was subsequently revised on July 7, 2020. Traditional possessory, non-recourse pawn loans are not covered under the SDL Rule. The SDL Rule defines some of the RISA transactions that AFF purchases and some of the bank loans that AFF sub-services as transactions that are covered under the rule. After resolution of some challenges to the SDL Rule itself and the constitutionality of the CFPB, on July 3, 2024, trade groups filed a petition for a rehearing with the Fifth Circuit
en banc
. If the Fifth Circuit does not grant the petition, the SDL Rule is expected to go into effect on March 30, 2025. The SDL Rule imposes certain obligations and limitations associated with the origination and servicing of covered transactions as of its effective date. At this time, the Company does not believe that the implementation of the SDL Rule as proposed will have a material impact on the Company’s future results of operations or financial condition.
NON-GAAP FINANCIAL INFORMATION
The Company uses certain financial calculations such as adjusted net income, adjusted diluted earnings per share, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, free cash flow, adjusted free cash flow and constant currency results as factors in the measurement and evaluation of the Company’s operating performance and period-over-period growth. The Company derives these financial calculations on the basis of methodologies other than GAAP, primarily by excluding from a comparable GAAP measure certain items the Company does not consider to be representative of its actual operating performance. These financial calculations are “non-GAAP financial measures” as defined under the SEC rules. The Company uses these non-GAAP financial measures in operating its business because management believes they are less susceptible to variances in actual operating performance that can result from the excluded items, other infrequent charges and currency fluctuations. The Company presents these financial measures to investors because management believes they are useful to investors in evaluating the primary factors that drive the Company’s core operating performance and provide greater transparency into the Company’s results of operations. However, items that are excluded and other adjustments and assumptions that are made in calculating these non-GAAP financial measures are significant components in understanding and assessing the Company’s financial performance. These non-GAAP financial measures should be evaluated in conjunction with, and are not a substitute for, the Company’s GAAP financial measures. Further, because these non-GAAP financial measures are not determined in accordance with GAAP and are thus susceptible to varying calculations, the non-GAAP financial measures, as presented, may not be comparable to other similarly-titled measures of other companies.
While acquisitions are an important part of the Company’s overall strategy, the Company has adjusted the applicable financial calculations to exclude merger and acquisition expenses in order to allow more accurate comparisons of the financial results to prior periods. In addition, the Company does not consider these merger and acquisition expenses to be related to the organic operations of the acquired businesses or its continuing operations, and such expenses are generally not relevant to assessing or estimating the long-term performance of the acquired businesses. Merger and acquisition expenses include incremental costs directly associated with merger and acquisition activities, including professional fees, legal expenses, severance, retention and other employee-related costs, contract breakage costs and costs related to the consolidation of technology systems and corporate facilities, among others.
The Company has certain leases in Mexico which are denominated in U.S. dollars. The lease liability of these U.S. dollar-denominated leases, which is considered a monetary liability, is remeasured into Mexican pesos using current period exchange rates, resulting in the recognition of foreign currency exchange gains or losses. The Company has adjusted the applicable financial measures to exclude these remeasurement gains or losses (i) because they are non-cash, non-operating items that could create volatility in the Company’s consolidated results of operations due to the magnitude of the end of period lease liability being remeasured and (ii) to improve comparability of current periods presented with prior periods.

Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share
Management believes the presentation of adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share provides investors with greater transparency and provides a more complete understanding of the Company’s financial performance and prospects for the future by excluding items that management believes are non-operating in nature and are not representative of the Company’s core operating performance. In addition, management believes the adjustments shown below are useful to investors in order to allow them to compare the Company’s financial results for the current periods presented with the prior periods presented.

Free Cash Flow and Adjusted Free Cash Flow
For purposes of its internal liquidity assessments, the Company considers free cash flow and adjusted free cash flow. The Company defines free cash flow as cash flow from operating activities less purchases of furniture, fixtures, equipment and improvements and net fundings/repayments of pawn loan and finance receivables, which are considered to be operating in nature by the Company but are included in cash flow from investing activities. Adjusted free cash flow is defined as free cash flow adjusted for merger and acquisition expenses paid that management considers to be non-operating in nature.
Free cash flow and adjusted free cash flow are commonly used by investors as additional measures of cash generated by business operations that may be used to repay scheduled debt maturities and debt service or, following payment of such debt obligations and other non-discretionary items, that may be available to invest in future growth through new business development activities or acquisitions, repurchase stock, pay cash dividends or repay debt obligations prior to their maturities. These metrics can also be used to evaluate the Company’s ability to generate cash flow from business operations and the impact that this cash flow has on the Company’s liquidity. However, free cash flow and adjusted free cash flow have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for cash flow from operating activities or other income statement data prepared in accordance with GAAP. The following table reconciles cash flow from operating activities to free cash flow and adjusted free cash flow (in thousands):

Constant Currency Results
The Company’s reporting currency is the U.S. dollar, however, certain performance metrics discussed in this report are presented on a “constant currency” basis, which is considered a non-GAAP financial measure. The Company’s management uses constant currency results to evaluate operating results of business operations in Latin America, which are transacted in local currencies in Mexico, Guatemala and Colombia. The Company also has operations in El Salvador, where the reporting and functional currency is the U.S. dollar.
The Company believes constant currency results provide valuable supplemental information regarding the underlying performance of its business operations in Latin America, consistent with how the Company’s management evaluates such performance and operating results. Constant currency results reported herein are calculated by translating certain balance sheet and income statement items denominated in local currencies using the exchange rate from the prior-year comparable period, as opposed to the current comparable period, in order to exclude the effects of foreign currency rate fluctuations for purposes of evaluating period-over-period comparisons. See the Latin America pawn segment tables in “Results of Operations” above for additional reconciliation of certain constant currency amounts to as reported GAAP amounts.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Market risks relating to the Company’s operations result primarily from changes in interest rates, gold prices and foreign currency exchange rates and are described in detail in the Company’s 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The impact of current-year fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, in particular, are further discussed in Part I, Item 2 herein. The Company does not engage in speculative or leveraged transactions, nor does it hold or issue financial instruments for trading purposes. There have been no material changes to the Company’s exposure to market risks since December 31, 2023.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Company’s management, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) as of June 30, 2024 (the “Evaluation Date”). Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of the Evaluation Date, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2024 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures
The Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures or internal controls will prevent all possible error and fraud. The Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are, however, designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives, and the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective at that reasonable assurance level.

All dollar amounts presented exclude such excise taxes.
