Subsequent Events [Abstract] |
Subsequent Events | Note U: Subsequent Events Acquisitions Since the end of our fiscal year, we acquired 17 pawn stores located in Florida and the greater San Antonio, Texas metropolitan area and eight Cash Converters locations located in Pennsylvania, Virginia and Ontario, Canada, for consideration of approximately $49.2 million. The consideration was comprised of $48.2 million cash and approximately $1.0 million related to the issuance of 33,011 shares of EZCORP Class A Non-voting Common Stock. The purchase price allocation for these acquisitions is incomplete as we continue to receive information regarding the acquired assets. As a result, we are unable to provide at this time a breakout between net tangible assets, intangible assets and goodwill.
