EZCORP, Inc.
Notes to Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
March 31, 2019
NOTE 1: ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Description of Business
When used in this report, the terms “we,” “us,” “our,” “EZCORP” and the “Company” mean EZCORP, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries, collectively.
We are a leading provider of pawn loans in the United States and Latin America. Pawn loans are non-recourse loans collateralized by tangible property. We also sell merchandise, primarily collateral forfeited from pawn lending operations and used merchandise purchased from customers, and operate a small number of financial services stores in Canada.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. Our management has included all adjustments it considers necessary for a fair presentation which are of a normal, recurring nature. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
The accompanying financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2018 and as corrected below. The balance sheet as of September 30, 2018 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements.
Our business is subject to seasonal variations, and operating results for the three and six months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 (the "current quarter" and "current six-months" and "prior-year quarter" and "prior-year six-months," respectively) are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for the full fiscal year.
There have been no changes in significant accounting policies as described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2018, other than those described below.
Use of Estimates and Assumptions
The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and judgments, including those related to revenue recognition, inventories, loan loss allowances, long-lived and intangible assets, share-based compensation, income taxes, contingencies and litigation. We base our estimates on historical experience, observable trends and various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. We use this information to make judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Corrections to Prior Period Financial Statements
During the current quarter, we identified errors in our previously reported financial statements during the ordinary course of account reviews and subsequent investigation of related accounts. None of the identified errors was material to any previously reported period. These have now been corrected in all periods presented. The errors relate primarily to the overstatement of historical balances of pawn service charges receivable resulting from errors in the configuration of information technology reports. These errors resulted in an overstatement of October 1, 2017 beginning retained earnings of $3.8 million. The impact of these corrections on the condensed consolidated financial statements is as follows (in thousands except per share amounts):

* | As previously reported amount includes the impact of adoption of accounting policies described below.

Recently Adopted Accounting Policies

• | In August 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2018-15, Intangibles — Goodwill and Other — Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That is a Service Contract, which requires a customer in a cloud computing arrangement that is a service contract to follow the internal-use software guidance in Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 350-40 to determine which implementation costs to defer and recognize as an asset. This ASU generally aligns the guidance on recognizing implementation costs incurred in a cloud computing arrangement that is a service contract with that for implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software, including hosting arrangements that include an internal-use software license. Our hosting arrangements that are service contracts include various third-party software applications. We adopted this ASU during the first quarter of our fiscal 2019 on a prospective basis for all service contracts entered into after adoption, with no material impact upon adoption.

• | In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18 Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash. This ASU requires the inclusion of restricted cash with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. We adopted this ASU during the first quarter of our fiscal 2019 with no impact on our financial position or results of operations. However, we have recast our statements of cash flows on a retrospective basis to include restricted cash when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts.

• | In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15 Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments. This ASU provides guidance on eight specific cash flow issues. We adopted this ASU during the first quarter of our fiscal 2019 on a prospective basis with no impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

• | In May 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, Financial Instruments (Subtopic 825-10). The amendments in this ASU make targeted improvements to GAAP primarily as it pertains to equity investments (not including equity method of accounting), fair value disclosures, balance sheet presentation, and other items pertaining to financial instruments. We adopted this ASU during the first quarter of our fiscal 2019 on a prospective basis, as applicable, with no impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows upon adoption.

• | In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) to defer the effective date to

8

Table of Contents
December 15, 2017 for annual reporting periods beginning after that date, with early adoption permitted, but not before the original effective date of December 15, 2016. The core principle of this ASU, and the subsequently issued ASUs modifying or clarifying this ASU, is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. To achieve this core principle, the guidance provides that an entity should apply the following steps: (1) identify the contract(s) with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when, or as, the entity satisfies a performance obligation. The new standard allows for two methods of adoption: (a) full retrospective adoption, meaning the standard is applied to all periods presented, or (b) modified retrospective adoption, meaning the cumulative effect of applying the new standard is recognized as an adjustment to the opening retained earnings balance.
We adopted this ASU and related guidance as of October 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective method. We evaluated the impact of ASC 606 on our consolidated financial position, results of operations, cash flows and disclosure requirements noting no material impact to our consolidated financial statements or disclosures. See Note 9 for disaggregated information about our sources of revenue. Additionally, we have concluded that ASC 606 does not impact our revenue recognition for pawn service charges or consumer loan fees as we believe neither of those revenue streams are within the scope of ASC 606.
The following is a summary of our current revenue recognition policies.
Pawn Service Charges Revenue
We record pawn service charges using the effective interest method over the life of the loan for all pawn loans we believe to be collectible. We base our estimate of collectible loans on several inputs, including recent redemption rates, historical trends in redemption rates and the amount of loans due in the following months. Unexpected variations in any of these factors could change our estimate of collectible loans, affecting our earnings and financial condition. If a pawn loan is not repaid, we value the forfeited collateral (inventory) at the lower of cost (pawn loan principal) or net realizable value of the item.
Merchandise and Related Sales Revenue
This revenue stream involves the sale of merchandise to retail customers in our pawn stores. The performance obligation is the delivery of the merchandise to the customer. Revenue and the related cost of merchandise sold is recognized at the time of sale. Customers have a very limited period of time to return merchandise for a refund or exchange, and actual returns for refunds are insignificant. Sales tax collected on the sale of merchandise is excluded from the amount recognized as sales and instead recorded as a liability in “Accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities” in our condensed consolidated balance sheets until remitted to the appropriate governmental authorities.
Jewelry Scrapping Sales Revenue
This revenue stream involves the sales of scrap (precious metals and stones) to refiners. The performance obligation is the legal transfer of scrap to the refiner. Revenue, and the related cost of scrap sold, is recognized when scrap inventory is provided to the refiner, which is when the customer obtains control of the promised good. The receivables outstanding at the end of a given reporting period are not material. Payment of the receivable from the customer is generally received within a short period of time after the legal transfer of the scrap materials to the refiner.
Other Revenue
Layaway fees, product protection plan revenues, and jewelry VIP package revenues are not significant.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

• | In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments — Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. This ASU requires financial assets (or groups of financial assets) measured at amortized cost basis to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected, among other provisions. The provisions of this ASU are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. A reporting entity should generally apply the amendment on a modified retrospective basis through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting periods in which the amendment is effective. We have not identified any impacts to our financial statements that we believe will

Table of Contents
be material as a result of the adoption of the ASU, although we continue to evaluate the impact of adoption. We believe we are following an appropriate timeline to allow for proper recognition, presentation and disclosure upon adoption of this ASU which is effective for our fiscal 2021.

• | In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). This ASU requires companies to generally recognize on the balance sheet operating and financing lease liabilities and corresponding right-of-use assets. The provisions of this ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted based upon guidance issued within the ASU. We are in the process of evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2016-02 on our consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows, and anticipate a material impact on our consolidated financial position. Additionally, we are evaluating the disclosure requirements under this ASU and are identifying and preparing to implement changes to our accounting policies, practices and controls to support adoption of the ASU and have completed upgrades to our third-party software solution to support adoption. We will complete our implementation to allow for proper recognition, presentation and disclosure upon adoption of the ASU which is effective for our fiscal 2020. We currently plan to adopt this ASU using the optional transition method provided under ASU 2018-11, Leases, (Topic 842): Targeted Improvement which was issued in July 2018, allowing for application of ASU 2016-02 at the adoption date.

Please refer to Note 1 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in "Part II, Item 8 — Financial Statements and Supplementary Data" of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2018 for discussion of our significant accounting policies and other accounting pronouncements issued but not yet adopted.
NOTE 2: ACQUISITIONS
Fiscal 2019 Acquisitions
In December 2018, we acquired assets related to five pawn stores in Mexico, for an aggregate purchase price of $0.3 million in cash, of which $0.1 million was recorded as goodwill. We have concluded that this acquisition was immaterial to our overall consolidated financial results and, therefore, have omitted certain information that would otherwise be required.
Fiscal 2018 Acquisition of Camira Administration Corp. and Subsidiaries (“GPMX”)
On October 6, 2017, we completed the acquisition of 100% of the outstanding stock of Camira Administration Corp. and subsidiaries (“GPMX”), a business that, at the time, owned and operated 112 stores located in Guatemala, El Salvador, Honduras and Peru for a total purchase price of $61.7 million. The GPMX acquisition significantly expanded our store base into Latin American countries outside of Mexico and provides us with a platform for further growth in the region. The accompanying condensed consolidated results of operations for the six months ended March 31, 2019 include the results of operations for GPMX, while the comparable prior-year period includes the results of GPMX for the period October 6, 2017 to March 31, 2018, affecting comparability of fiscal 2019 and 2018 year-to-date amounts. We have performed a valuation analysis of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed and allocated the total consideration based on the fair values of those identifiable assets and liabilities.
All Other Fiscal 2018 Acquisitions
On June 25, 2018, June 11, 2018 and December 4, 2017, we acquired pawn stores operating in Mexico under the names “Montepio San Patricio,” "Presta Dinero" and "Bazareño," respectively. These acquisitions significantly strengthened our competitive position in existing regions, gave us a presence in new regions and allowed us to achieve synergies in management and administration. The accompanying condensed consolidated results of operations for the six months ended March 31, 2019 include the results of operations for these acquisitions, while the comparable prior-year periods only include the results of Bazareño for the period December 4, 2017 to March 31, 2018, affecting comparability of fiscal 2019 and 2018 amounts.
We have performed a valuation analysis of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed and allocated the total consideration based on the fair values of those identifiable assets and liabilities for these acquisitions. During the first quarter of fiscal 2019, we finalized accounting for the Montepio San Patricio and Presta Dinero acquisitions, which were completed in fiscal 2018, and increased associated deferred tax assets by $1.8 million with an offsetting reduction in goodwill.

Through the first two quarters of fiscal 2019, the fair value of our investment in Cash Converters International, as estimated by reference to its quoted market price per share and the applicable foreign currency exchange rate, declined from its value at September 30, 2018 and ended each quarter below its carrying value. As of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, we determined that our investment was impaired and that such impairment was other-than-temporary. In reaching this conclusion, we considered all available evidence, including evidence in existence as of September 30, 2018 as discussed in Note 4 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in "Part II, Item 8 — Financial Statements and Supplementary Data" of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2018. Additionally, we noted the following developments subsequent to September 30, 2018: (i) continued decline in Cash Converters International's share price; and (ii) ongoing uncertainty around remaining Queensland, Australia class action lawsuit. As a result, we recognized an other-than-temporary impairment in Cash Converters International of $13.3 million ($10.3 million, net of taxes) and $6.5 million ($5.0 million, net of taxes) during the first and second quarters of fiscal 2019, respectively.
The above impairments increased the difference between the amount at which our investment was carried and the amount of underlying equity in net assets of Cash Converters International and was recorded in “Impairment of investment in unconsolidated affiliate” in our condensed consolidated statements of operations in the “Other International” segment. We will continue to monitor the fair value of our investment in Cash Converters International for other-than-temporary impairments in future reporting periods and may record additional impairment charges should the fair value of our investment in Cash Converters International further decline below its carrying value for an extended period of time. See Note 5 for the fair value and carrying value of our investment in Cash Converters International.

NOTE 5: FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
Our assets and liabilities discussed below are classified in one of the following three categories based on the inputs used to develop their fair values: Level 1 — Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; Level 2 — Other observable market-based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data; and Level 3 — Unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data.
Recurring Fair Value Measurements
The tables below present our financial assets (liabilities) that were carried and measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

2019 Convertible Notes Embedded Derivative — Level 2 |  | Long-term debt, net |  | — |  |  | (16,042 | ) |  | — |

We measured the fair value of the cash-settled call options pertaining to the 2.125% Cash Convertible Senior Notes Due 2019 (the “2019 Convertible Notes Hedges”) and the 2019 Convertible Notes derivative instrument (the “2019 Convertible Notes Embedded Derivative”) using the Black-Scholes-Merton model based on observable Level 1 and Level 2 inputs such as conversion price of underlying shares, current share price, implied volatility, risk free interest rate and other factors. The volatility input used as of March 31, 2019 was 36% based on historically observed market inputs.
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.

Based primarily on the short-term nature of cash and cash equivalents, pawn loans, pawn service charges receivable, current consumer loans, fees and interest receivable and other debt, we estimate that their carrying value approximates fair value. We consider our cash and cash equivalents to be measured using Level 1 inputs and our pawn loans, pawn service charges receivable, consumer loans, fees and interest receivable and other debt to be measured using Level 3 inputs. Significant increases or decreases in the underlying assumptions used to value pawn loans, pawn service charges receivable, consumer loans, fees and interest receivable and other debt could significantly increase or decrease these fair value estimates.
In March 2019, we deconsolidated a previously consolidated variable interest entity ("RDC") over which we no longer have the power to direct the activities that most significantly affect its economic performance. After the deconsolidation, we continue to hold the following interests in RDC:

• | A 5% equity interest and a call option to repurchase an additional 43% equity interest for $1 in September 2019 in the event that RDC has not received a qualified third party investment. These interests were recorded at a combined fair value of $2.8 million and included in "Investment in unconsolidated affiliates" in our condensed consolidated balance sheets.

• | A $9.1 million non-interest bearing convertible promissory note due January 2021, which is automatically convertible into a 10% equity interest when RDC has received a qualified third party investment. This note was recorded at its fair value of $6.8 million in "Notes receivable, net" in our condensed consolidated balance sheets.

In conjunction with the deconsolidation and recording of the above amounts, we recognized a loss of $0.3 million, included in "Other expense (income)" in our condensed consolidated statements of operations included in our "Other International" segment and in "Other adjustments" in our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. The retained equity interest, call option and convertible promissory note were valued using a weighted discounted cash flow and market approach using Level 3 inputs. Significant increases or decreases in the underlying assumptions used to value these interests could significantly increase or decrease the fair value estimate.
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. Subsequent to quarter end, 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.
Subsequent to the sale of Prestaciones Finmart, S.A.P.I. de C.V., SOFOM, E.N.R. ("Grupo Finmart") to Alpha Holding, S.A. de C.V. (“AlphaCredit”) in September 2016, we determined that we retained a variable interest in Grupo Finmart including notes receivable. We determined that we are not the primary beneficiary of Grupo Finmart subsequent to its disposition as we lack a controlling financial interest in Grupo Finmart. We measured the fair value of the notes receivable as of March 31, 2019 under a discounted cash flow approach considering the estimated credit ratings for Grupo Finmart and AlphaCredit and as determined with external consultation, with discount rates of primarily 7%. Certain of the significant inputs used for the valuation were not observable in the market. Included in the fair value of the notes receivable is the estimated fair value of the deferred compensation fee negotiated in September 2017, of which the ultimate amount to be received is dependent upon the timing of payment of the notes receivable. Significant increases or decreases in the underlying assumptions used to value the notes receivable could significantly increase or decrease these fair value estimates.
The inputs used to measure the fair value of the investment in unconsolidated affiliate Cash Converters International were considered Level 1 inputs. These inputs are comprised 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.
We measured the fair value of the 2019 Convertible Notes, 2024 Convertible Notes and 2025 Convertible Notes using quoted price inputs. The 2019 Convertible Notes, 2024 Convertible Notes and 2025 Convertible Notes are not actively traded, and thus the price inputs represent a Level 2 measurement. As the quoted price inputs are highly variable from day to day, the fair value estimates disclosed above could significantly increase or decrease.

2.375% Convertible Senior Notes Due 2025
In May 2018, we issued $172.5 million aggregate principal amount of 2.375% Convertible Senior Notes Due 2025 (the “2025 Convertible Notes”). The 2025 Convertible Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture dated May 14, 2018 (the "2018 Indenture") by and between us and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as the trustee. The 2025 Convertible Notes were issued in a private offering under Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933. The 2025 Convertible Notes pay interest semi-annually in arrears at a rate of 2.375% per annum on May 1 and November 1 of each year, commencing November 1, 2018, and mature on May 1, 2025 (the "2025 Maturity Date"), unless converted, redeemed or repurchased in accordance with their terms prior to such date. The carrying amount of the 2025 Convertible Notes as a separate equity-classified instrument (the “2025 Convertible Notes Embedded Derivative”) included in “Additional paid-in capital” in our condensed consolidated balance sheets of March 31, 2019 was $39.0 million. The effective interest rate for the three and six months ended March 31, 2019 was approximately 9%. As of March 31, 2019, the remaining unamortized debt discount and issuance costs will be amortized through the 2025 Maturity Date assuming no early conversion.
The 2025 Convertible Notes are convertible into cash or shares of Class A Non-Voting Common Stock ("Class A Common Stock"), or any combination thereof, at our option subject to satisfaction of certain conditions and during the periods described in the 2018 Indenture, based on an initial conversion rate of 62.8931 shares of Class A Common Stock per $1,000 principal amount of 2025 Convertible Notes (equivalent to an initial conversion price of $15.90 per share of our Class A Common Stock). We account for the Class A Common Stock issuable upon conversion under the treasury stock method. To the extent our average share price is over $15.90 per share for any fiscal quarter, we are required to recognize incremental dilution of our earnings per share.
If, among other triggers described in the 2018 Indenture, the market price of our Class A Common Stock meets the threshold based on at least 20 of the final 30 trading days of the quarter for the 2025 Convertible Notes to become convertible at the option of the holders during the subsequent quarter, we may be required to classify the 2025 Convertible Notes as current on

our condensed consolidated balance sheets for each quarter in which such triggers are met. The stock trading price condition and other triggers are measured on a quarter-by-quarter basis and were not met as of March 31, 2019. As of March 31, 2019, the if-converted value of the 2025 Convertible Notes did not exceed the principal amount.
2.875% Convertible Senior Notes Due 2024
In July 2017, we issued $143.75 million aggregate principal amount of 2.875% Convertible Senior Notes Due 2024 (the “2024 Convertible Notes”). The 2024 Convertible Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture dated July 5, 2017 (the "2017 Indenture") by and between us and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as the trustee. The 2024 Convertible Notes were issued in a private offering under Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933. The 2024 Convertible Notes pay interest semi-annually in arrears at a rate of 2.875% per annum on January 1 and July 1 of each year, commencing January 1, 2018, and mature on July 1, 2024 (the "2024 Maturity Date"), unless converted, redeemed or repurchased in accordance with their terms prior to such date. The carrying amount of the 2024 Convertible Notes as a separate equity-classified instrument (the “2024 Convertible Notes Embedded Derivative”) included in “Additional paid-in capital” in our condensed consolidated balance sheets of March 31, 2019 was $25.3 million. The effective interest rate for the three and six months ended March 31, 2019 was approximately 9%. As of March 31, 2019, the remaining unamortized debt discount and issuance costs will be amortized through the 2024 Maturity Date assuming no early conversion.
The 2024 Convertible Notes are convertible into cash or shares of Class A Common Stock, or any combination thereof, at our option subject to satisfaction of certain conditions and during the periods described in the 2017 Indenture, based on an initial conversion rate of 100 shares of Class A Common Stock per $1,000 principal amount of 2024 Convertible Notes (equivalent to an initial conversion price of $10.00 per share of our Class A Common Stock). We account for the Class A Common Stock issuable upon conversion under the treasury stock method. To the extent our average share price is over $10.00 per share for any fiscal quarter, we are required to recognize incremental dilution of our earnings per share.
If, among other triggers described in the 2017 Indenture, the market price of our Class A Common Stock meets the threshold based on at least 20 of the final 30 trading days of the quarter for the 2024 Convertible Notes to become convertible at the option of the holders during the subsequent quarter, we may be required to classify the 2024 Convertible Notes as current on our condensed consolidated balance sheets for each quarter in which such triggers are met. The stock trading price condition and other triggers are measured on a quarter-by-quarter basis and were not met as of March 31, 2019. As of March 31, 2019, the if-converted value of the 2024 Convertible Notes did not exceed the principal amount.
2.125% Cash Convertible Senior Notes Due 2019
In June 2014, we issued $200 million aggregate principal amount of 2.125% Cash Convertible Senior Notes Due 2019 (the "2019 Convertible Notes"), with an additional $30 million principal amount of 2019 Convertible Notes issued in July 2014. In July 2017, we used $34.4 million of net proceeds from the 2024 Convertible Notes offering to repurchase and retire $35.0 million aggregate principal amount of 2019 Convertible Notes. The 2019 Convertible Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture dated June 23, 2014 (the "2014 Indenture") by and between us and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as the trustee. The 2019 Convertible Notes were issued in a private offering and resold under Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933. The 2019 Convertible Notes pay interest semi-annually in arrears at a rate of 2.125% per annum on June 15 and December 15 of each year and mature on June 15, 2019 (the "2019 Maturity Date"), unless converted, redeemed or repurchased in accordance with their terms prior to such date. The effective interest rate for the three and six months ended March 31, 2019 was approximately 8%. As of March 31, 2019, the remaining unamortized debt discount and issuance costs will be amortized through the 2019 Maturity Date assuming no early conversion.
The 2019 Convertible Notes are convertible into cash, subject to satisfaction of certain conditions and during the periods described in the 2014 Indenture, based on an initial conversion rate of 62.2471 shares of Class A Common Stock per $1,000 principal amount of 2019 Convertible Notes (equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $16.065 per share of our Class A Common Stock). As of March 31, 2019, the if-converted value of the 2019 Convertible Notes did not exceed the principal amount.
2019 Convertible Notes Hedges
In connection with the issuance of the 2019 Convertible Notes, we purchased cash-settled call options (the “2019 Convertible Notes Hedges”) in privately negotiated transactions with certain of the initial purchasers or their affiliates (in this capacity, the “Option Counterparties”). The 2019 Convertible Notes Hedges provide us with the option to acquire, on a net settlement basis, approximately 12.1 million shares of our Class A Common Stock at a strike price of $16.065, which is equal to the number of shares of our Class A Common Stock that notionally underlie the 2019 Convertible Notes and corresponds to the conversion price of the 2019 Convertible Notes. If we exercise the 2019 Convertible Notes Hedges, the aggregate amount of cash we will
17

Table of Contents
receive from the Option Counterparties will cover the aggregate amount of cash that we would be required to pay to the holders of the converted 2019 Convertible Notes, less the principal amount thereof.
2019 Convertible Notes Warrants
In connection with the issuance of the 2019 Convertible Notes, we also sold net-share-settled warrants (the “2019 Convertible Notes Warrants”) in privately negotiated transactions with the Option Counterparties. The 2019 Convertible Notes Warrants allow for the purchase of up to approximately 12.1 million shares of our Class A Common Stock at a strike price of $20.83 per share. We account for the Class A Common Stock issuable upon exercise under the treasury stock method. As a result of the 2019 Convertible Notes Warrants and related transactions, we are required to recognize incremental dilution of our earnings per share to the extent our average share price is over $20.83 for any fiscal quarter. The 2019 Convertible Notes Warrants expire on various dates from September 2019 through February 2020 and must be settled in net shares of our Class A Common Stock.
CASHMAX Secured Borrowing Facility
In November 2018 we entered into a receivables securitization facility with a third-party lender (the "lender") to provide funding for installment loan originations in our Canadian CASHMAX business. Under the facility, an unconsolidated variable interest entity (the "trust") has the right, subject to various conditions, to borrow up to CAD $25 million from the lender (the "third-party loan") and use the proceeds to purchase interests in installment loan receivables generated by CASHMAX. The trust uses collections on the transferred receivables to pay various amounts in accordance with an agreed priority arrangement, including expenses, its obligations under the third-party loan and, to the extent available, amounts owned to CASHMAX with respect to the purchase price of the transferred receivables and CASHMAX's retained interest in the receivables. CASHMAX has no obligation with respect to the third-party loan or the transferred receivables except to (a) service the underlying installment loans on behalf of the trust and (b) pay amounts owing under or repurchase the underlying installment loans in the event of a breach by CASHMAX or in certain other limited circumstances. The facility is generally nonrecourse to EZCORP. The amount outstanding under the facility as of March 31, 2019 was $1.1 million.
NOTE 7: STOCK COMPENSATION
On May 1, 2010 our Board of Directors approved the adoption of the EZCORP, Inc. 2010 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “2010 Plan”). As of September 30, 2018, the 2010 Plan permitted grants of options, restricted stock awards and stock appreciation rights covering up to 5,085,649 shares of our Class A Common Stock. In November 2018, the Board of Directors and the voting stockholder approved the addition of 400,000 shares to the 2010 Plan.
In April 2019, we granted our six new non-employee directors a total of 51,504 restricted stock awards. In November 2018, we granted 1,008,998 restricted stock unit awards to employees and 59,812 restricted stock awards to non-employee directors with a grant date fair value of primarily $9.18 per share. The number of long-term incentive award shares and units granted are generally determined based on our share price as of October 1 each year, which was $10.51 for these fiscal 2019 awards. The awards granted to employees vest on September 30, 2021, subject to the achievement of certain adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share performance targets. As of December 31, 2018, we considered the achievement of these performance targets probable. The awards granted to non-employee directors vest on September 30, 2019 and are subject only to service conditions.
NOTE 8: CONTINGENCIES
We are involved in various claims, suits, investigations and legal proceedings, including those described below. We are unable to determine the ultimate outcome of any current litigation or regulatory actions. An unfavorable outcome could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or liquidity. We have not recorded a liability for any of these matters as of March 31, 2019 because we do not believe at this time that any loss is probable or that the amount of any probable loss can be reasonably estimated. The following is a description of significant proceedings.
Federal Securities Litigation — On July 20, 2015, Wu Winfred Huang, a purported holder of Class A Common Stock, for himself and on behalf of other similarly situated holders of Class A Common Stock, filed a lawsuit in the United States District Court for the Western District of Texas styled Huang v. EZCORP, Inc., et al. (Case No. 1:15-cv-00608-SS). The complaint names as defendants EZCORP, Inc., Stuart I. Grimshaw (our chief executive officer) and Mark E. Kuchenrither (our former chief financial officer) and asserts violations of Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder. The original complaint related to the Company’s announcement on July 17, 2015 that it will restate the financial statements for fiscal 2014 and the first quarter of fiscal 2015, and alleged generally that the Company issued materially false or misleading statements concerning the Company, its finances, business operations and prospects and that the Company misrepresented the financial performance of the Grupo Finmart business.

Table of Contents
On August 14, 2015, a substantially identical lawsuit, styled Rooney v. EZCORP, Inc., et al. (Case No. 1:15-cv-00700-SS) was also filed in the United States District Court for the Western District of Texas. On September 28, 2015, the plaintiffs in these two lawsuits filed an agreed stipulation to be appointed co-lead plaintiffs and agreed that their two actions should be consolidated. On November 3, 2015, the Court entered an order consolidating the two actions under the caption In re EZCORP, Inc. Securities Litigation (Master File No. 1:15-cv-00608-SS), and appointed the two plaintiffs as co-lead plaintiffs, with their respective counsel appointed as co-lead counsel.
On January 11, 2016, the plaintiffs filed an Amended Class Action Complaint (the "Amended Complaint"). In the Amended Complaint, the plaintiffs seek to represent a class of purchasers of our Class A Common Stock between November 6, 2012 and October 20, 2015. The Amended Complaint asserts that the Company and Mr. Kuchenrither violated Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act and Rule 10b-5, issued materially false or misleading statements throughout the proposed class period concerning the Company and its internal controls, specifically regarding the financial performance of Grupo Finmart. The plaintiffs also allege that Mr. Kuchenrither, as a controlling person of the Company, violated Section 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act. The Amended Complaint does not assert any claims against Mr. Grimshaw. On February 25, 2016, defendants filed a motion to dismiss the lawsuit. The plaintiff filed an opposition to the motion to dismiss on April 11, 2016, and the defendants filed their reply on May 11, 2016. The Court held a hearing on the motion to dismiss on June 22, 2016.
On October 18, 2016, the Court granted the defendants’ motion to dismiss and dismissed the Amended Complaint without prejudice. The Court gave the plaintiffs 20 days (until November 7, 2016) to file a further amended complaint. On November 4, 2016, the plaintiffs filed a Second Amended Consolidated Class Action Complaint (“Second Amended Complaint”). The Second Amended Complaint raises the same claims dismissed by the Court on October 18, 2016, except plaintiffs now seek to represent a class of purchasers of EZCORP’s Class A Common Stock between November 7, 2013 and October 20, 2015 (instead of between November 6, 2012 and October 20, 2015). On December 5, 2016, defendants filed a motion to dismiss the Second Amended Compliant. The plaintiffs filed their opposition to the motion to dismiss on January 6, 2017, and the defendants filed their reply brief on January 20, 2017.
On May 8, 2017, the Court granted the defendants’ motion to dismiss with regard to claims related to accounting errors relating to Grupo Finmart’s bad debt reserve calculations for “nonperforming” loans, but denied the motion to dismiss with regard to claims relating to accounting errors related to certain sales of loan portfolios to third parties.
Following discovery on the surviving claims, the plaintiff filed a Motion for Leave to File a Third Amended Complaint, seeking to revive the "nonperforming" loan claims that the Court previously dismissed. We opposed that motion, and on May 14, 2018, the Court heard oral arguments on the motion, as well as plaintiff's Motion for Class Certification and Appointment of Class Representative and Class Counsel, which was also pending.
On July 26, 2018, the Court granted the plaintiff's motion for leave to amend, thus accepting the Third Amended Consolidated Class Action Complaint, and we filed our answer on August 3, 2018. On August 31, 2018, the plaintiff filed an Amended Motion for Class Certification and Appointment of Class Representative and Class Counsel, and we filed our opposition on September 28, 2018. On February 19, 2019, the Court issued an order certifying the class and approving the class representative and class counsel. On March 5, 2019, we requested an appeal of that order to the U.S. Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals, and on March 25, 2019, the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals granted the appeal.
We cannot predict the outcome of the litigation, but we intend to continue to defend vigorously against all allegations and claims.
SEC Investigation — On October 23, 2014, we received a notice from the Fort Worth Regional Office of the SEC that it was conducting an investigation into certain matters involving EZCORP, Inc. The notice was accompanied by a subpoena, directing us to produce a variety of documents, including all minutes and materials related to Board of Directors and Board committee meetings since January 1, 2009 and all documents and communications relating to our historical advisory services relationship with Madison Park (the business advisory firm owned by Mr. Cohen) and LPG Limited (a business advisory firm owned by Lachlan P. Given, our current Executive Chairman of the Board). The SEC also issued subpoenas to current and former members of our Board of Directors requesting production of similar documents, as well as to certain third parties, and conducted interviews with certain individuals.
On March 1, 2019, the SEC issued an order imposing sanctions against Mark Kuchenrither, our former Chief Financial Officer, for allegedly misrepresenting certain financial projections that formed the basis of a fairness opinion that the Audit Committee relied on in approving the compensation to be paid to Madison Park for fiscal 2014. The SEC alleged that Mr. Kuchenrither's conduct constituted negligence and violated, among other things, Section 17(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933 and Rule 13a-14 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Mr. Kuchenrither, without admitting or denying the SEC's allegations or findings, consented to the entry of the order in order to settle the proceedings, and agreed to pay a civil money penalty of $50,000. The
19

SEC has not raised any claims against the Company or any of its current or former directors and officers, other than Mr. Kuchenrither.

Jewelry Scrap Receivable
In November 2018, our principal refiner that processed our scrap jewelry announced Chapter 11 bankruptcy restructuring proceedings in the U.S. As of March 31, 2019, we had potential exposure from this refiner of $3.6 million on our balance sheet. In the first quarter of fiscal 2019, we recorded a full reserve of $4.4 million which is included in "(Gain) loss on sale or disposal of assets and other" and "Reserve on jewelry scrap receivable" in our condensed consolidated statements of operations and cash flows, respectively. In the second quarter of fiscal 2019, we recovered $0.8 million of the amount initially reserved which is included in "(Gain) loss on sale or disposal of assets and other" and "Reserve on jewelry scrap receivable" in our condensed consolidated statements of operations and cash flows, respectively. We continue to monitor the bankruptcy process and may record recoveries of such reserved amounts in a future period as we gather more information. At this point, the balance of $3.6 million remains fully reserved.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The discussion in this section contains forward-looking statements that are based on our current expectations. Actual results could differ materially from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements due to a number of risks, uncertainties and other factors, including those identified in "Part I, Item 1A — Risk Factors" of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2018, as supplemented by the information set forth in “Part I, Item 3 — Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk” and "Part II, Item 1 — Legal Proceedings" of this Quarterly Report.

Overview and Financial Highlights
EZCORP is a Delaware corporation headquartered in Austin, Texas. We are a leading provider of pawn loans in the United States and Latin America.
Our vision is to be the market leader in North America in responsibly and respectfully meeting our customers' desire for access to cash when they want it. That vision is supported by four key imperatives:

• | Market Leading Customer Satisfaction;

• | Exceptional Staff Engagement;

• | Most Efficient Provider of Cash; and

• | Attractive Shareholder Returns.

At our pawn stores, we offer pawn loans, which are nonrecourse loans collateralized by tangible personal property, and sell merchandise to customers looking for good value. The merchandise we sell consists of second-hand collateral forfeited from our pawn lending activities or purchased from customers.
We remain focused on growing our balance of pawn loans outstanding (“PLO”) and the resulting higher pawn service charges (“PSC”). The following charts present sources of net revenues, including PSC, merchandise sales gross profit ("Merchandise sales GP") and jewelry scrapping gross profit ("Jewelry scrapping GP"):

Pawn Activities
At our pawn stores, we offer pawn loans, which are typically small, nonrecourse loans collateralized by tangible personal property. We earn pawn service charges on our pawn loans, which varies by state and loan size. Collateral for our pawn loans consists of tangible personal property, generally jewelry, consumer electronics, tools, sporting goods and musical instruments. Security for our pawn loans is provided via the estimated resale value of the collateral and the perceived probability of the loan’s redemption.
Our ability to offer quality second-hand goods at prices significantly lower than original retail prices attracts value-conscious customers. The gross profit on sales of inventory depends primarily on our assessment of the loan or purchase value at the time the property is either accepted as loan collateral or purchased. As a significant portion of our inventory and sales involve gold and jewelry, our results can be heavily influenced by the market price of gold.
Growth and Expansion
We plan to expand the number of locations we operate through opening new (“de novo”) locations and through acquisitions in both Latin America and the United States and potential new markets. Our ability to add new stores is dependent on several variables, such as projected achievement of internal investment hurdles, the availability of acceptable sites or acquisition candidates, the alignment of acquirer/seller price expectations, the regulatory environment, local zoning ordinances, access to capital and availability of qualified personnel.
Seasonality and Quarterly Results
Historically, pawn service charges are highest in our fourth fiscal quarter (July through September) due to a higher average loan balance during the summer lending season in the United States and lowest in our third fiscal quarter (April through June) following the tax refund season in the United States. Merchandise sales are highest in our first and second fiscal quarters (October through March) due to the holiday season, jewelry sales in the United States surrounding Valentine’s Day and the availability of tax refunds in the United States. Most of our customers in Latin America receive additional compensation from their employers in December, and many also receive additional compensation in June or July, applying downward pressure on loan balances and fueling some merchandise sales in those periods. As a net effect of these and other factors and excluding discrete charges, our consolidated profit before tax is generally highest in our first fiscal quarter (October through December) and lowest in our third fiscal quarter (April through June).

Net revenue increased 2%, or $1.9 million, primarily due to a 5%, or $2.8 million, increase in pawn service charges, offset by a 1%, or $0.5 million, decrease in merchandise sales gross profit and a 19%, or $0.3 million, decrease in jewelry scrapping sales gross profit. With no new stores added since the prior-year quarter, the change in net revenue was attributable to same stores.
Pawn service charges increased 5%, or $2.8 million, due to a 6% increase in average ending monthly pawn loan balances outstanding during the current quarter. The higher average loan balance was driven by growth in new loan originations from our continued focus on meeting customers’ desire for cash better than our competitors. A disciplined lending approach resulted in maintaining PLO yield and redemption rates compared to the prior-year quarter.
Merchandise sales increased 2% with gross margin on merchandise sales of 37%, a 100 basis point decline over the prior-year quarter. Delayed receipt of customers’ tax refunds appeared to suppress sales demand during the quarter and placed pressure on merchandise margins. As a result, merchandise sales gross profit decreased 1% to $35.7 million. We expect sales gross margin for the full fiscal year to remain within our target range of 35-38%.
Jewelry scrapping sales gross profit remained relatively flat at 1% of current quarter net revenues, in line with our strategy to sell rather than scrap jewelry, with a 300 basis point decline in gross margin to 17% which includes a nominal decline in gold prices.
Operations expense increased 4% primarily due to increases in personnel costs in meeting the loan demand of our customers, while depreciation and amortization expense decreased 16% due to a one-time charge of $0.5 million for the retirement of certain assets in the prior-year quarter.
Non-GAAP Financial Information
In addition to the financial information prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"), we provide certain other non-GAAP financial information on a constant currency basis ("constant currency"). We use constant currency results to evaluate our Latin America Pawn operations, which are denominated primarily in Mexican pesos and other Latin American currencies. We believe that presentation of constant currency results is meaningful and useful in understanding the activities and business metrics of our Latin America Pawn operations and reflect an additional way of viewing aspects of our business that, when viewed with GAAP results, provide a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our business. We provide non-GAAP financial information for informational purposes and to enhance understanding of our GAAP consolidated financial statements. We use this non-GAAP financial information to evaluate and compare operating results across accounting periods. Readers should consider the information in addition to, but not instead of or superior to, our financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. This non-GAAP financial information may be determined or calculated differently by other companies, limiting the usefulness of those measures for comparative purposes.
Constant currency results reported herein are calculated by translating consolidated balance sheet and consolidated statement of operations items denominated in local currency to U.S. dollars using the exchange rate from the prior-year comparable period, as opposed to the current period, in order to exclude the effects of foreign currency rate fluctuations. We used the end-of-period rate for balance sheet items and the average closing daily exchange rate on a monthly basis during the appropriate period for statement of operations items. The end-of-period and approximate average exchange rates for each applicable currency as compared to U.S. dollars as of and for the three and six months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 were as follows:

|  | March 31, |  | Three Months Ended March 31, |  | Six Months Ended March 31,
|  | 2019 |  | 2018 |  | 2019 |  | 2018 |  | 2019 |  | 2018
Mexican peso |  | 19.4 |  |  | 18.3 |  |  | 19.2 |  |  | 18.7 |  |  | 19.5 |  |  | 18.8 |
Guatemalan quetzal |  | 7.6 |  |  | 7.3 |  |  | 7.6 |  |  | 7.3 |  |  | 7.6 |  |  | 7.2 |
Honduran lempira |  | 24.3 |  |  | 23.5 |  |  | 24.2 |  |  | 23.5 |  |  | 24.1 |  |  | 23.4 |
Peruvian sol |  | 3.3 |  |  | 3.2 |  |  | 3.3 |  |  | 3.2 |  |  | 3.3 |  |  | 3.2 |

Our statement of operations constant currency results reflect the monthly exchange rate fluctuations and so are not directly calculable from the above rates. Constant currency results, where presented, also exclude the foreign currency gain or loss.

We opened four stores in the current quarter. We see opportunity for further expansion in Latin America through de novo openings and acquisitions, and plan to open more stores in Latin America during the remainder of fiscal 2019.
Net revenue increased $6.0 million, or 27% ($6.8 million, or 31%, on a constant currency basis), primarily due to a 33% increase (37% on a constant currency basis) in pawn service charges and a 19% increase (22% on a constant currency basis) in merchandise sales gross profit. The increase in net revenue attributable to same stores and new stores added since the prior-year quarter is summarized as follows:

| Change in Net Revenue
| Pawn Service Charges |  | Merchandise Sales Gross Profit |  | Total
| (in millions)
Same stores | $ | 1.8 |  |  | $ | 0.4 |  |  | $ | 2.2 |

Change in jewelry scrapping sales gross profit and other revenues |  |  |  |  | (0.2 | )
Total change in net revenue |  |  |  |  | $ | 6.8 |

Pawn service charges increased 33% (37% on a constant currency basis) primarily from newly acquired stores. The average ending monthly pawn loan balance outstanding during the current quarter was up 2% (up 6% on a constant currency basis). Pawn service charges further include $1.1 million in revenue attributable to receipt of previously escrowed seller funds as a result of settling certain indemnification claims with the sellers of GPMX. Subsequent to quarter end, 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.
Merchandise sales increased 22% (25% on a constant currency basis) primarily from newly acquired stores, although same store sales were up 9%. Gross margin on merchandise sales was 31%, or 100 basis points below the prior-year quarter. As a result of these factors and foreign currency impacts, merchandise sales gross profit was up 19% to $7.8 million (up 22% to $8.0 million on a constant currency basis).
Jewelry scrapping sales decreased 26% (24% on a constant currency basis) with a 100 basis point increase in margin, in line with our strategy to sell rather than scrap jewelry.
Net revenue increased 27% (31% on a constant currency basis). Operations expense increased 21% (25% on a constant currency basis), and depreciation and amortization increased 63% (68% on a constant currency basis), both primarily as a result of newly acquired stores. These factors, as well as a $0.8 million recovery from a previously reserved receivable from a bankrupt refiner, resulted in an increase in segment contribution of 39% (43% on a constant currency basis).

Segment loss was $8.2 million, a decrease of $8.4 million from the prior-year quarter, primarily due to the impairment of our investment in Cash Converters International in the amount of $6.5 million.
Due partly to regulatory changes that became effective January 1, 2018, we added installment loan products in our Canada CASHMAX business to meet the needs of our customers. In addition to payday loans, all CASHMAX stores are now offering installment loans with terms ranging from six to 18 months and average yields of 47% per annum. We entered into a secured borrowing arrangement in November 2018 to provide up to CAD $25.0 million to fund originations of installment loans through November 2019 and have obtained $1.5 million in proceeds from the facility through March 31, 2019.

Segment contribution decreased primarily due to the impairment of our investment in Cash Converters International of $6.5 million.
Administrative expenses increased $3.1 million, or 24%, primarily due to costs associated with the strategic investment in a new digital platform and other professional fees.
Depreciation and amortization increased $0.5 million, or 26%, primarily due to additional capitalized software costs, including development of our new point of sale system.
Interest expense increased $2.6 million, or 44%, primarily due to an increase in debt outstanding during the current quarter compared to the prior-year quarter. Effective interest rates on our outstanding convertible debt were approximately 8% to 9%.
Interest income decreased $0.8 million, or 23%, primarily due to the declining principal balance on the Grupo Finmart notes receivable as they are repaid in accordance with their agreed amortization schedule.
Income tax expense decreased $3.6 million due primarily to:

• | A $12.5 million decrease in income from continuing operations before income taxes; and

• | A lower maximum U.S. corporate rate of 21% in the current quarter compared to 24.5% in the prior-year quarter; partially offset by

• | A prior-year quarter charge related to the impacts of the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017.

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.

Net revenue increased $6.4 million, or 3%, primarily due to a 6%, or $7.4 million, increase in pawn service charges, offset by a 29%, or $1.0 million, decrease in jewelry scrapping sales gross profit. The change in net revenue attributable to same stores and new stores added since the prior-year six-months is summarized as follows:

| Change in Net Revenue
| Pawn Service Charges |  | Merchandise Sales Gross Profit |  | Total
| (in millions)
Same stores | $ | 7.6 |  |  | $ | 0.3 |  |  | $ | 7.9 |
New stores and other | (0.2 | ) |  | (0.3 | ) |  | (0.5 | )

Change in jewelry scrapping sales gross profit and other revenues |  |  |  |  | (1.0 | )
Total change in net revenue |  |  |  |  | $ | 6.4 |

Pawn service charges increased 6% primarily due to a 7% increase in average ending monthly pawn loan balances outstanding during the current six-months. The higher average loan balance was driven by disciplined lending practices, a focus on meeting customers' need for cash, a delay in receipt of tax refunds and stronger performance from stores affected by hurricanes in the prior-year six-months.
Merchandise sales increased 3% with gross margin on merchandise sales of 37%, a 100 basis point decline over the prior-year six-months. As a result, merchandise sales gross profit was flat at $71.7 million. A portion of the year-over-year improvement is due to the impacts of hurricanes in the prior-year six-months. We expect sales gross margin for the full fiscal year to be within our target range of 35-38%.
Jewelry scrapping sales gross profit remained relatively flat at 1% of net revenues, in line with our strategy to sell rather than scrap jewelry, with a 400 basis point decline in gross margin to 16% which includes a nominal decline in gold prices.
A 3% increase in net revenue turned into a flat segment contribution primarily as a result of a $2.9 million reserve against a receivable balance from a gold refiner deemed uncollectible due to the refiner's Chapter 11 bankruptcy, in addition to a 3% increase in operations expense primarily due to wage inflation and increases to staffing levels in meeting the loan demand of our customers.

Our Latin America business continues to grow rapidly. In the current six-months, we acquired five pawn stores and opened eight de novo stores.
Net revenue increased $9.7 million, or 21% ($11.8 million, or 26%, on a constant currency basis), primarily due to a 25% increase (30% on a constant currency basis) in pawn service charges and a 16% increase (20% on a constant currency basis) in merchandise sales gross profit. The increase in net revenue attributable to same stores and new stores added since the prior-year six-months is summarized as follows:

| Change in Net Revenue
| Pawn Service Charges |  | Merchandise Sales Gross Profit |  | Total
| (in millions)
Same stores | $ | 2.4 |  |  | $ | 0.3 |  |  | $ | 2.7 |

Change in jewelry scrapping sales gross profit and other revenues |  |  |  |  | (0.3 | )
Total change in net revenue |  |  |  |  | $ | 11.8 |

Pawn service charges increased 25% (30% on a constant currency basis) primarily from newly acquired stores, although same store growth was 6%. The average ending monthly pawn loan balance outstanding during the current six-months was up 1% (up 6% on a constant currency basis). Pawn service charges further include $1.1 million in revenue attributable to receipt of previously escrowed seller funds as a result of settling certain indemnification claims with the sellers of GPMX.
Merchandise sales increased 20% (24% on a constant currency basis) primarily from newly acquired stores. Gross margin on merchandise sales was 31%, or 100 basis points below the prior-year six-months. As a result of these factors, merchandise sales gross profit was up 16% to $15.7 million (20% to $16.3 million on a constant currency basis).
Jewelry scrapping sales decreased 26% (23% on a constant currency basis) with a 100 basis point increase in margin, in line with our strategy to sell rather than scrap jewelry.
Net revenue increased 21% (26% on a constant currency basis). Operations expense increased 22% (27% on a constant currency basis) primarily as a result of newly acquired stores. Additionally, we recorded a $0.7 million reserve against a receivable and inventory balance deemed uncollectible from a refiner, consisting of a $1.5 million reserve recorded in the first quarter ended December 31, 2018 and a subsequent $0.8 million recovery in the current quarter. These factors resulted in a decrease in segment contribution of 5% (9% on a constant currency basis).

Segment loss was $24.1 million compared to $0.6 million in income in the prior-year six-months, primarily due to:

• | Impairment of our investment in Cash Converters International in the amount of $19.7 million; and

• | A charge of $2.9 million included in our ordinary estimated share of earnings for the current-year six-months from Cash Converters International for charges relating to settlement of Queensland class action litigation in October 2018.

Due partly to regulatory changes that became effective January 1, 2018, we added installment loan products in our Canada CASHMAX business to meet the needs of our customers. In addition to payday loans, all CASHMAX stores are now offering installment loans with terms ranging from six to 18 months and average yields of 47% per annum. We entered into a secured borrowing arrangement in November 2018 to provide up to CAD $25.0 million to fund originations of installment loans through November 2019 and have obtained $1.5 million in proceeds from the facility through March 31, 2019. See Note 6 of Notes to Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in "Part I, Item 1 — Financial Statements."
We closed three under-performing CASHMAX stores in the current six-months.

Segment contribution decreased primarily due to a $19.7 million impairment of our investment in Cash Converters International and a $2.9 million charge included in our ordinary estimated share of earnings from Cash Converters International for charges relating to settlement of a Queensland class action litigation in October 2018.
Administrative expenses increased $5.3 million, or 20%, in the current six-months primarily due to costs of $3.6 million associated with a strategic investment in a new digital platform and other professional fees.
Depreciation and amortization increased $0.8 million, or 21%, primarily due to additional capitalized software costs, including development of a new point of sale system.
Interest expense increased $5.4 million, or 46%, primarily due to an increase in debt outstanding during the current six-months compared to the prior-year six-months. Effective interest rates on our outstanding convertible debt were approximately 8% to 9%.
Interest income decreased $1.5 million, or 21%, primarily due to the declining principal balance on the Grupo Finmart notes receivable as they are repaid in accordance with their agreed amortization schedule.
Income tax expense decreased $12.1 million due primarily to:

• | A $36.9 million decrease in income from continuing operations before income taxes; and

• | A lower maximum U.S. corporate rate of 21% in the current six-months compared to a higher blended rate in the prior-year six-months; partially offset by

• | A first quarter of fiscal 2018 charge related to the impacts of the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017; and

• | A non-recurring benefit in the first quarter of fiscal 2018 for the expiration of statute of limitations on an uncertain tax position.

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

Change in Cash and Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash for the Six Months Ended March 31, 2019 vs. Six Months Ended March 31, 2018
The increase in cash flows from operating activities year-over-year was due to a $6.9 million increase in net income exclusive of non-cash items, operational results and stores acquired in the prior year, offset by a $1.9 million decrease from changes in operating assets and liabilities.
The increase in cash flows from investing activities year-over-year was due to a $63.2 million decrease in cash paid for acquisitions, a $5.4 million decrease in additions to property and equipment and a $5.4 million increase in principal collections on notes receivable, offset by a $9.6 million net investment in customer loan growth.
The decrease in cash flows from financing activities year-over-year was due to a $3.0 million increase in cash paid for employee net share settlement of individual tax liabilities on vested share-based awards, offset by $0.6 million in net proceeds from borrowings.
The net effect of these and other smaller items was a $62.2 million increase in cash on hand during the current six-months, resulting in a $347.8 million ending cash balance compared to $159.2 million as of March 31, 2018. Of the ending cash balance as of March 31, 2019, $25.0 million was not available to fund domestic operations as we intend to permanently reinvest those funds in our foreign operations.
Sources and Uses of Cash
We anticipate that cash flow from operations and cash on hand will be adequate to fund our contractual obligations, planned de novo store growth, capital expenditures and working capital requirements, as well as a limited amount of acquisitions, through fiscal 2019. We currently intend to retire the $195.0 million of 2.125% Cash Convertible Senior Notes Due 2019 at maturity (June 15, 2019) using cash on hand. We continue to explore accretive acquisition opportunities, both large and small, and may choose to pursue additional debt, equity or equity-linked financings in the future should the need arise. 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 and 2025, 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, 2018, we reported that we had $795.8 million in total contractual obligations as of September 30, 2018. There have been no material changes to this total obligation since September 30, 2018.
We are responsible for the maintenance, property taxes and insurance at most of our locations. In the fiscal year ended September 30, 2018, these collectively amounted to $22.4 million.

Cautionary Statement Regarding Risks and Uncertainties that May Affect Future Results
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, includes "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. We intend that all forward-looking statements be subject to the safe harbors created by these laws. All statements, other than statements of historical facts, regarding our strategy, future operations, financial position, future revenues, projected costs, prospects, plans and objectives are forward-looking statements. These statements are often, but not always, made with words or phrases like "may," "should," "could," "will," "predict," "anticipate," "believe," "estimate," "expect," "intend," "plan," "projection" and similar expressions. Such statements are only predictions of the outcome and timing of future events based on our current expectations and currently available information and, accordingly, are subject to substantial risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Actual results could differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements due to a number of risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control. In addition, we cannot predict all of the risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results to differ from those expressed in the forward-looking statements. Accordingly, you should not regard any forward-looking statements as a representation that the expected results will be achieved. Important risk factors that could cause results or events to differ from current expectations are identified and described in "Part I, Item 1A — Risk Factors" of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2018, supplemented by those described in "Part II, Item 1A — Risk Factors" of this Quarterly 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, 2018. There have been no material changes to our exposure to market risks since September 30, 2018.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
This report includes the certifications of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer required by Rule 13a-14 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"). See Exhibits 31.1 and 31.2. This Item 4 includes information concerning the controls and control evaluations referred to in those certifications.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
Under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, our management evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2019. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of March 31, 2019 due to the existence of a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting described below (which we view as an integral part of our disclosure controls and procedures). Based on the performance of additional procedures designed to ensure the reliability of our financial reporting, we believe that the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q fairly present, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations and cash flows as of the dates, and for the periods, presented, in conformity with GAAP.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
During the quarter ended March 31, 2019, we experienced changes in our internal control environment that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. Specifically, we have certain deficiencies in our information technology general controls (ITGC) that are designed to prevent or detect unauthorized access

or changes to our operating system and databases. Prior to the quarter ended March 31, 2019, we maintained a separate logging system that mitigated the potential impact of those ITGC deficiencies. During the quarter, however, we deemed it necessary to discontinue the separate logging system in order to maintain acceptable system performance at the store level, which eliminated compensating controls that mitigated the potential impact of the ITGC deficiencies. We believe that, without those IT compensating controls and given the lack of sufficiently designed non-IT compensating controls, the underlying ITGC deficiencies represent a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting.
As of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we have hired a Chief Information Security Officer, whose primary responsibility is to assist us with the design, implementation and maintenance of appropriate controls to safeguard the confidentiality, integrity and availability of our IT operating and reporting systems. We are focused on remediating the underlying ITGC deficiencies, and we are in the process of improving our control environment to adequately prevent or detect unauthorized access or changes to our operating systems and databases, including the implementation of a new separate logging system that is expected to operate without sacrificing system performance at the store level. See "Part II, Item 1A — Risk Factors."
Inherent Limitations on Internal Controls
Notwithstanding the foregoing, management does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system will be met. Limitations inherent in any control system include the following:

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

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

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

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

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

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

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
Important risk factors that could affect our operations and financial performance, or that could cause results or events to differ from current expectations, are described in "Part I, Item 1A — Risk Factors" of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30. 2018, as supplemented by the information set forth in "Part II, Item 1A — Risk Factors" of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended December 31, 2018 and by the information set forth below.
We have identified a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting that, if not effectively remediated, could result in material misstatements in our financial statements.
As described in "Part I, Item 4 — Controls and Procedures," we have identified and evaluated certain deficiencies in our IT general controls, and have concluded that those deficiencies, collectively, represent a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. As a result of this material weakness, management has concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of March 31, 2019.
As described in "Part I, Item 4 — Controls and Procedures," we are in the process of implementing a remediation plan to address the underlying ITGC deficiencies. If our remediation efforts are insufficient, our consolidated financial statements may contain material misstatements and we could be required to restate our financial results, which could materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition, restrict our ability to access the capital markets, require us to expend significant resources to correct the deficiencies, subject us to fines, penalties or judgments, harm our reputation or otherwise cause a decline in investor confidence.
Our ability to recover our investment in RDC is heavily dependent on RDC's success and performance, including its ability to obtain further debt or equity financing.
We have certain interests in RDC, a previously consolidated variable interest entity, including a $9.1 million non-interest bearing convertible promissory note due January 2021. See Note 5 of Notes to Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in "Part I, Item 1 — "Financial Statements." Our ability to recover our investment in RDC, including the amount owed under the convertible promissory note or any value attributable to additional equity interest that we would receive on conversion, is heavily dependent on RDC's success and performance, including its ability to obtain further debt or equity financing. To the extent that RDC is not successful, we may be required in future periods to impair our investment and recognize related investment losses.
