During the quarter ended March 31, 2023, we recorded a $32.5 million loss on our share of losses from Cash Converters, which included $32.4 million as our share of their non-cash goodwill impairment charge, that was recorded to "Equity in net loss of unconsolidated affiliates" in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. See Note 6: Fair Value Measurements for the fair value and carrying value of our investment in Cash Converters. Founders One, LLC In October 2021, we invested $15.0 million in exchange for a non-redeemable voting participating preferred equity interest in Founders One, LLC (“Founders”), a then newly-formed entity with one other member. Founders used that $15.0 million to acquire an equity interest in Simple Management Group, Inc. (“SMG”). On December 2, 2022, we contributed an additional $15.0 million to Founders associated with our preferred interest, which proceeds were used by Founders to acquire additional common stock in SMG. In addition, we loaned $15.0 million to Founders in exchange for a Demand Promissory Note secured by the common interest in Founders held by the other member. We have an interest in Founders, a variable interest entity, but because the Company is not the primary beneficiary, we do not consolidate Founders. Further, as we are not the appointed manager, we do not have the ability to direct the activities of the investment entity that most significantly impact its economic performance. Consequently, our equity investment in Founders is accounted for utilizing the measurement alternative within Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 321, Investments — Equity Securities. Our $30.0 million carrying value of the investment and $15.0 million Demand Promissory Note are included in “Other investments” and "Prepaid expenses and other current assets" in our consolidated balance sheets, respectively. Our maximum exposure for losses related to our investment in Founders is our $30.0 million equity investment and $15.0 million Demand Promissory Note plus accrued and unpaid interest. See Note 6: Fair Value Measurements for the fair values and carrying values of our investment in and loan to Founders, respectively.
