Basis of Presentation [Abstract] |
Reclassifications | Reclassifications Certain reclassifications have been made to the reported amounts for prior periods to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications have no impact on net earnings or earnings per share in any period. See Note 3 and Note 10 for further information.
Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates In preparing financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, we are required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent losses and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. In applying accounting principles, we must often make individual estimates and assumptions regarding expected outcomes or uncertainties. Our estimates, judgments and assumptions are continually evaluated based on available information and experience. However, uncertainties, including those related to recent macroeconomic trends or other factors, may affect certain estimates and assumptions inherent in the financial reporting process, which may impact reported amounts of assets and liabilities in future periods and cause actual results to differ from those estimates.
Principles of Consolidation and Nature of Operations | Principles of Consolidation and Nature of Operations The financial statements included herein include the accounts of Upbound Group, Inc. and its direct and indirect subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Unless the context indicates otherwise, references to “Upbound Group, Inc.” refer only to Upbound Group, Inc., the parent, and references to the “Company”, “we,” “us” and “our” refer to the consolidated business operations of Upbound Group and any or all of its direct and indirect subsidiaries. We currently report four operating segments: Acima, Rent-A-Center, Brigit and Mexico. On January 31 2025, we established a new operating segment following the acquisition of Bridge IT, Inc. (“Brigit”). Please reference Note 2 for additional discussion of the acquisition. In addition we combined our Franchising segment with our Rent-A-Center segment. Financial information disclosed within this report has been recast for the related prior year period to reflect this change. Brigit’s results of operations are reflected in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations from January 31, 2025. Our Acima segment, which primarily operates in the United States and Puerto Rico, generally offers the lease-to-own transaction to consumers who do not qualify for traditional financing through staffed or unstaffed kiosks located within third- party retailer locations or other virtual options. In virtual locations, customers, either directly or with the assistance of a representative of the third-party retailer, initiate the lease-to-own transaction online in the retailers’ locations using our virtual solutions. Our Rent-A-Center segment primarily consists of company-owned lease-to-own stores in the United States and Puerto Rico that lease durable goods to customers on a lease-to-own basis. In addition, we offer merchandise on an installment sales basis in certain of our stores operating under the names “Get It Now” and “Home Choice” in the states of Minnesota and Wisconsin. The Rent-A-Center segment also includes franchising operations that offer the sale of rental merchandise to our franchisees, who in turn offer the merchandise to the general public for rent or purchase under lease-to-own agreements consistent with our company-owned lease-to-own stores. We also receive royalties of 3.0% to 6.0% of the franchisees' monthly gross revenues. Our Rent-A-Center segment operates through our company-owned and franchise stores, and e-commerce platforms through rentacenter.com, getitnowstores.com and homechoicestores.com. Our Brigit segment, which operates in the United States, includes the operations of Bridge IT Inc., which was acquired on January 31, 2025 (the “Closing Date”). The Brigit segment, through mobile and web applications, offers various financial health products and tools to help users improve their financial health, such as Finance Helper, Earn and Save, Instant Cash, Credit Builder, Identity Theft Protection and more. These products and tools help customers budget better, improve financial literacy, find ways to earn and save money, access their earned wages before their regularly scheduled payday, build their credit through savings and protect themselves from identity theft. Our Mexico segment consists of our company-owned stores in Mexico that lease durable goods to customers on a lease-to-own basis.
Newly Adopted Accounting Pronouncements | Newly Adopted Accounting Pronouncements In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which is intended to improve the transparency of the annual income tax disclosures by requiring specific categories in the income tax rate reconciliation and disaggregation of income taxes paid by jurisdiction. It also includes certain other amendments to improve the effectiveness of income tax disclosures. Adoption of ASU 2023-09 was required for us beginning January 1, 2025 for our fiscal year ended December 31, 2025. We will include required disclosures in our annual reporting period ending December 31, 2025 and interim reporting periods beginning after December 31, 2025 using a prospective approach.
