Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1: ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Description of Business
EZCORP, Inc. (collectively with its subsidiaries, the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) is a provider of pawn loans in the United States (“U.S.”) 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 pre-owned merchandise purchased from customers.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements (“Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements”) have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements.
These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2024, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on November 13, 2024 (“2024 Annual Report”).
In the opinion of management, the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair presentation. Financial results for the three and six month periods ended March 31, 2025, are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2025 or any other period due, in part, to seasonal variations. There have been no changes that have had a material impact in significant accounting policies as described in our 2024 Annual Report.
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of EZCORP, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. We use the equity method of accounting for entities in which we have a 50% or less investment and exercise significant influence. We account for equity investments for which we do not have significant influence and without readily determinable fair values at cost with adjustments for observable changes in price in orderly transactions for identical or similar investments of the same issuer or impairments. All inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates and Assumptions
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Such estimates and assumptions include the determination of inventory reserves, expected credit losses, useful lives of long-lived and intangible assets, valuation of share-based compensation, valuation of equity investments, valuation of deferred tax assets and liabilities, loss contingencies related to litigation and discount rates used for operating leases. We base our estimates on historical experience, observable trends and various other assumptions we believe are reasonable. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
Merchandise Sales Revenues Recognition
Customer layaway deposits are recorded as liabilities when a customer provides a deposit for merchandise. Upon cancellation, customer layaway deposits are generally refundable, less a cancellation fee, via credit slip. Our customer layaway deposits balance as of March 31, 2025, 2024 and September 30, 2024 was $31.0 million, $20.4 million and $21.6 million, respectively, and are generally recognized as revenues within a one-year period.
Investments
We account for our investment in Rich Data Corporation (“RDC”) in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 321, Investments — Equity Securities, and we have elected to use the measurement alternative to measure this investment at cost, less any impairment, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for identical or similar investments of the same issuer, if any. As of March 31, 2025, 2024 and September 30, 2024, the carrying value of our investment in RDC was $6.2 million.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In October 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-06, Disclosure Improvements - Codification Amendments in Response to the SEC’s Disclosure Update and Simplification Initiative (“ASU 2023-06”). ASU 2023-06 will impact various disclosure areas, including the statement of cash flows, accounting changes and error corrections, earnings per share, debt, equity, derivatives, and transfers of financial assets. The amendments in this ASU 2023-06 will be effective on the date the related disclosures are removed from Regulation S-X or Regulation S-K by the SEC, and will no longer be effective if the SEC has not removed the applicable disclosure requirement by June 30, 2027. Early adoption is prohibited. We are currently evaluating the impact of this standard on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures (“ASU 2023-07”). ASU 2023-07 requires disclosure of significant segment expenses regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) included within segment operating profit or loss. Additionally, the ASU requires a description of how the CODM utilizes segment operating profit or loss to assess segment performance. The requirements of ASU 2023-07 are effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted, and retrospective application is required for all periods presented. We are currently evaluating the impact of this standard on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (“ASU 2023-09”). ASU 2023-09 requires disclosure of specific categories and disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation table. The ASU also requires disclosure of disaggregated information related to income taxes paid, income or loss from continuing operations before income tax expense or benefit and income tax expense or benefit from continuing operations. The requirements of this ASU 2023-09 are effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted, and the amendments should be applied on a prospective basis. Retrospective application is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of this standard on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In March 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-02, Codification Improvements—Amendments to Remove References to the Concepts Statements (“ASU 2024-02”). ASU 2024-02 contains amendments to the Codification that remove references to various FASB Concepts Statements. The requirements of this ASU 2024-02 are effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024 and can be applied on a prospective or retrospective basis. This standard is not expected to have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (“ASU 2024-03”). Additionally, in January 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-01 to clarify the effective date of ASU 2024-03. ASU 2024-03 requires disclosure in the notes to the financial statements of specified information about certain costs and expenses. The requirements of ASU 2024-03 are effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted and should be applied either prospectively to financial statements issued for reporting periods after the effective date of this ASU or retrospectively to any or all periods presented in the financial statements. We are currently evaluating the impact of this standard on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-04, Debt - Debt with Conversions and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20): Induced Conversions of Convertible Debt Instruments (“ASU 2024-04”). ASU 2024-04 clarifies the requirements for determining whether certain settlements of convertible debt instruments, including convertible debt instruments with cash conversion features or convertible debt instruments that are not currently convertible, should be accounted for as an induced conversion. The requirements of ASU 2024-04 are effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2025, and interim periods within those periods. Early adoption is permitted for all entities that have adopted the amendments in ASU 2020-06 and can be applied on a prospective or retrospective basis. We are currently evaluating the impact of this standard on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Additionally, no potential common shares related to the accreted value of the 2024 Convertible Notes are included for the three or six months ended March 31, 2024 as the average market rate was not above the initial conversion price of $10.00 per share for the noted reporting periods.

Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term with variable lease expense recognized in the period in which the costs are incurred. The components of lease expense are included in “Store expenses” and “General and administrative” under operating expenses, based on the underlying lease use. Cash paid for operating leases was $20.0 million and $24.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and $40.0 million and $44.6 million for the six months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

See Note 6: Fair Value Measurements for the fair value and carrying value of our investment in Cash Converters.
Founders One, LLC
In fiscal 2022, 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. In fiscal 2023, we contributed an additional $15.0 million associated with our preferred interest and loaned Founders $15.0 million in exchange for a Demand Promissory Note secured by the common interest held by the other member. In fiscal 2024, we contributed an additional $15.0 million associated with our preferred interest, bringing our total preferred equity investment in Founders to $45.0 million.
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 preferred equity investment in Founders is accounted for utilizing the measurement alternative within ASC 321, Investments — Equity Securities. As of March 31, 2025, our $45.0 million carrying value of the preferred equity investment and $15.0 million Demand Promissory Note are included in “Other investments” and “Prepaid expenses and other current assets” in our condensed consolidated balance sheets, respectively. As of March 31, 2025, our maximum exposure for losses related to our investment in Founders was our $45.0 million preferred equity investment and $15.0 million Demand Promissory Note plus accrued and unpaid interest.
See Note 6: Fair Value Measurements for the fair value and carrying value of our loan to Founders.
NOTE 6: FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The fair value of a financial instrument is the amount that could be received upon the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value hierarchy prioritizes the quality and reliability of the information used to determine fair values. Categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The fair value hierarchy is defined into the following three categories:
•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.
•Level 3 — Unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data.
We have elected not to measure at fair value any eligible items for which fair value measurement is optional.

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 and other liabilities, we estimate that their carrying value approximates fair value. We consider our cash and cash equivalents, including money market accounts, to be measured using Level 1 inputs and our pawn loans, pawn service charges receivable and other liabilities to be measured using Level 3 inputs. Significant increases or decreases in the underlying assumptions used to value pawn loans, pawn service charges receivable, fees and interest receivable and other debt could significantly increase or decrease these fair value estimates.
In fiscal 2023, 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. As of March 31, 2025, the interest rate on the note was 15.00% per annum, and all principal and accrued interest is due on demand. Based primarily on the short-term nature of the note, we estimate that its carrying value approximates fair value as of March 31, 2025.
In fiscal 2019, we received $1.1 million in previously escrowed seller funds as a result of settling certain indemnification claims with the seller of GPMX. In April 2019, we loaned the $1.1 million back to the seller of GPMX in exchange for a promissory note. The interest rate on the note was 2.89% per annum and was secured by certain marketable securities owned by the seller and held in a U.S. brokerage account. All principal and accrued interest was received in April 2024.

Table of Contents
We use the equity method of accounting to account for our ownership interest in Cash Converters. The inputs used to generate the fair value of the investment in Cash Converters were considered Level 1 inputs. These inputs consist 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 2024, 2025 and 2029 Convertible Notes and 2032 Senior Notes using quoted price inputs. The 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.

2032 Senior Notes
In March 2025, we issued $300.0 million aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 7.375% senior notes due 2032 (the “2032 Senior Notes”), for which $300.0 million remains outstanding as of March 31, 2025. The 2032 Senior Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture, dated March 28, 2025 (the “2025 Indenture”), by and among the Company, certain of the Company’s wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries and Truist Bank, as trustee in a private placement under Rule 144A and Regulation S under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”). The 2032 Senior Notes have not been and will not be registered under the federal securities laws or the securities laws of any state or any other jurisdiction. The Company is not required to register the 2032 Senior Notes for resale under the Securities Act, or the securities laws of any other jurisdiction, and is not required to exchange the 2032 Senior Notes for notes registered under the Securities Act or the securities laws of any other jurisdiction and has no present intention to do so. As a result, Rule 3-10 of Regulation S-X promulgated by the SEC is not applicable and no separate financial statements are required for the guarantor subsidiaries.
The net proceeds from the offering were approximately $292.5 million, after deducting the initial purchasers’ discounts and estimated offering expenses payable by us. The Company capitalized approximately $7.5 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 Senior Notes as a component of interest expense and are carried as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the 2032 Senior Notes in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.
The 2032 Senior Notes pay interest semi-annually in arrears at a rate of 7.375% per annum on April 1st and October 1st of each year, commencing October 1, 2025, and mature on April 1, 2032, unless earlier redeemed or repurchased in accordance with the terms prior to such date. The effective interest rate for the three and six months ended March 31, 2025 was approximately 7.84%. The 2025 Indenture contains certain customary affirmative covenants, negative covenants and events of default. As of March 31, 2025, the Company was in compliance with all covenants relating to the 2032 Senior Notes.

Table of Contents
The 2032 Senior Notes are senior unsecured obligations of the Company and are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by certain of the Company’s wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries. The Company may redeem some or all of the 2032 Senior Notes at any time on or after April 1, 2028, at the redemption prices set forth in the 2025 Indenture, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any. Additionally, the Company may redeem some or all of the 2032 Senior Notes at a price equal to 100% of principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, plus a “make-whole” premium set forth in the Indenture prior to April 1, 2028. The Company may redeem up to 40% of the 2032 Senior Notes prior to April 1, 2028 with the proceeds of certain equity offerings at the redemption price set forth in the 2025 Indenture. If the Company 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 Senior Notes.
2029 Convertible Notes
In December 2022, we issued $230.0 million aggregate principal amount of the 2029 Convertible Notes, for which $230.0 million remains outstanding as of March 31, 2025. The 2029 Convertible Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture dated December 12, 2022 (the “2022 Indenture”) by and between the Company and Truist Bank, as trustee. The 2029 Convertible Notes were issued in a private offering under Rule 144A under the Securities Act.
The 2029 Convertible Notes pay interest semi-annually in arrears at a rate of 3.750% per annum on June 15 and December 15 of each year, commencing June 15, 2023, and mature on December 15, 2029 (the “2029 Maturity Date”), unless converted, redeemed or repurchased in accordance with the terms prior to such date. At maturity, the holders of the 2029 Convertible Notes will be entitled to receive cash, securities, or combination at the Company’s election equal to the principal of the 2029 Convertible Notes plus accrued interest. The effective interest rate for the three and six months ended March 31, 2025 was approximately 4.28%. As of March 31, 2025, the remaining unamortized debt issuance costs will be amortized using the effective interest method through the 2029 Maturity Date assuming no early conversion.
The 2029 Convertible Notes are convertible based on an initial conversion rate of 89.0313 shares of Class A Common Stock per $1,000 principal amount (equivalent to an initial conversion price of $11.232 per share). The conversion rate will not be adjusted for any accrued and unpaid interest. The 2029 Convertible Notes contain certain make-whole fundamental change premiums and customary anti-dilution adjustments. Upon conversion, we may settle in cash, shares of Class A Common Stock or any combination thereof, at our election.
Prior to June 15, 2029, the 2029 Convertible Notes will be convertible only under the following circumstances: (1) during any fiscal quarter commencing after the fiscal quarter ending on March 31, 2023 (and only during such fiscal quarter), if the last reported sale price of our Class A Common Stock for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during a period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on the last trading day of the immediately preceding fiscal quarter is greater than or equal to 130% of the conversion price on each applicable trading day; (2) during the five business day period after any five consecutive trading day period (the “measurement period”) in which the trading price, as defined in the 2022 Indenture, per $1,000 principal amount of notes for each trading day of the measurement period was less than 98% of the product of the last reported sale price of our Class A Common Stock and the conversion rate on such trading day; (3) if we call any or all of the 2029 Convertible Notes for redemption, at any time prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding the redemption date; or (4) upon the occurrence of specified corporate events, as defined in the 2022 Indenture. On or after June 15, 2029 until the close of business on the business day immediately preceding the 2029 Maturity Date, holders of 2029 Convertible Notes may, at their option, convert their 2029 Convertible Notes at any time, regardless of the foregoing circumstances.
We may not redeem the 2029 Convertible Notes prior to December 21, 2026. At our option, we may redeem for cash all or any portion of the 2029 Convertible Notes on or after December 21, 2026, if the last reported sale price of the Class A Common Stock has been at least 130% of the conversion price then in effect for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive), including the trading day immediately preceding the date on which we provide notice of redemption, during any 30 consecutive trading day period ending on, and including, the trading day immediately preceding the date on which we provide notice of redemption. The redemption price will be equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2029 Convertible Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the redemption date.
As of March 31, 2025, the 2029 Convertible Notes were not convertible as no conditions of conversion had been met. Accordingly, the net balance of the 2029 Convertible Notes was classified as a non-current liability in our condensed consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2025. The classification of the 2029 Convertible Notes as current or non-current in the condensed consolidated balance sheets is evaluated at each balance sheet date and may change from time to time depending on whether any of the conversion conditions has been met.

If one of the conversion conditions is met in any future fiscal quarter, we will classify our net liability under the 2029 Convertible Notes as a current liability in the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of the end of that fiscal quarter. If none of the conversion conditions have been met in a future fiscal quarter prior to the one-year period immediately preceding the 2029 Maturity Date, we will classify our net liability under the 2029 Convertible Notes as a non-current liability in the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of the end of that fiscal quarter. If the note holders elect to convert their 2029 Convertible Notes prior to maturity, any unamortized debt issuance costs will be recognized as expense at the time of conversion. If the entire outstanding principal amount had been converted on March 31, 2025, we would have recorded an expense associated with the conversion, comprised of $5.3 million of unamortized debt issuance costs. The stock trading price condition and other triggers are measured on a quarter-by-quarter basis and were not met as of March 31, 2025. As of March 31, 2025, the if-converted value of the 2029 Convertible Notes did not exceed the principal amount.
2025 Convertible Notes
In May 2018, we issued $172.5 million aggregate principal amount of the 2025 Convertible Notes. The 2025 Convertible Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture dated May 14, 2018 (the “2018 Indenture”) by and between the Company and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as the original trustee. Effective October 1, 2019, Truist (formerly BB&T) assumed the duties and responsibilities as trustee under the 2018 Indenture. The 2025 Convertible Notes were issued in a private offering under Rule 144A under the Securities Act. In December 2022, we repurchased approximately $69.1 million aggregate principal amount of the 2025 Convertible Notes for approximately $62.9 million plus accrued interest. As of March 31, 2025, $103.4 million remains outstanding.
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 the terms prior to such date. The effective interest rate for the three and six months ended March 31, 2025 was approximately 2.88% for the 2025 Convertible Notes. As of March 31, 2025, the remaining unamortized debt issuance costs will be amortized using the effective interest method through the 2025 Maturity Date assuming no early conversion.
The 2025 Convertible Notes are convertible based on an initial conversion rate of 62.8931 shares of Class A Common Stock per $1,000 principal amount (equivalent to an initial conversion price of $15.90 per share). The conversion rate will not be adjusted for any accrued and unpaid interest. The 2025 Convertible Notes contain certain make-whole fundamental change premiums and customary anti-dilution adjustments.
Until the close of business on the business day immediately preceding the 2025 Maturity Date, holders of 2025 Convertible Notes may, at their option, convert their 2025 Convertible Notes at any time.
Pursuant to the terms of the 2018 Indenture, we have elected to settle any conversions of the 2025 Convertible Notes using shares of Class A Common Stock (physical settlement). On October 28, 2024, we provided notice of that election to the trustee.
If the note holders elect to convert their 2025 Convertible Notes prior to maturity, any unamortized debt issuance costs will be recognized as expense at the time of conversion. If the entire outstanding principal amount had been converted on March 31, 2025, we would have recorded an expense associated with the conversion, comprised of less than $0.1 million of unamortized debt issuance costs. The stock trading price condition and other triggers are measured on a quarter-by-quarter basis and were not met as of March 31, 2025. As of March 31, 2025, the if-converted value of the 2025 Convertible Notes did not exceed the principal amount and none of the note holders had elected to convert their 2025 Convertible Notes.
2024 Convertible Notes
In July 2017, we issued $143.75 million aggregate principal amount of the 2024 Convertible Notes. The 2024 Convertible Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture dated July 5, 2017 (the “2017 Indenture”) by and between the Company and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as the original trustee. Effective October 1, 2019, Truist (formerly BB&T) assumed the duties and responsibilities as trustee under the 2017 Indenture. The 2024 Convertible Notes were issued in a private offering under Rule 144A under the Securities Act. In December 2022, we repurchased approximately $109.4 million aggregate principal amount of the 2024 Convertible Notes for approximately $117.5 million plus accrued interest. On July 1, 2024, the $34.4 million aggregate principal amount outstanding plus accrued interest was repaid using cash on hand and 77,328 Class A Common Stock shares, equal to the accreted value, were issued as part of the 2024 Convertible Notes conversion.
The 2024 Convertible Notes paid 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 matured on July 1, 2024 (the “2024 Maturity Date”). The 2024 Convertible Notes were convertible based on an initial conversion rate of 100 shares of Class A Common Stock per $1,000 principal amount (equivalent to an initial conversion price of $10.00 per share). Until the close of business on the business day immediately preceding the 2024 Maturity Date, holders of 2024 Convertible Notes could, at their option, convert their 2024 Convertible Notes at any time. Because we did not elect an alternative settlement method prior to January 1, 2024, conversions were settled by combination settlement, which was $1,000 cash (per the $1,000 principal value) plus stock equal to the accreted value as defined in the 2017 Indenture.

NOTE 8: COMMON STOCK AND STOCK COMPENSATION
Common Stock Repurchase Program
On May 3, 2022, the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) authorized the repurchase of up to $50 million of our Class A Common Stock over three years (the “Common Stock Repurchase Program”). Execution of the program will be responsive to fluctuating market conditions and valuations, liquidity needs and the expected return on investment compared to other opportunities.
The amount and timing of purchases will be dependent on a variety of factors, including stock price, trading volume, general market conditions, legal and regulatory requirements, general business conditions, the level of cash flows, and corporate considerations determined by management and the Board, such as liquidity and capital needs and the availability of attractive alternative investment opportunities. The Board of Directors has reserved the right to modify, suspend or terminate the program at any time. As of March 31, 2025, we had repurchased and retired 3,178,147 shares of our Class A Common Stock for $30.0 million under the Common Stock Repurchase Program, of which 82,136 and 332,599 shares were repurchased and retired for $1.0 million and $4.0 million during the three and six months ended March 31, 2025. During the three and six months ended March 31, 2024, 305,475 and 660,357 shares were repurchased and retired for $3.0 million and $6.0 million, respectively, under the Common Stock Repurchase Program. The repurchase amount is allocated between “Additional paid-in capital” and “Retained earnings” in our condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Stock Compensation
We maintain a Board-approved incentive plan to retain the services of our valued officers, directors and employees and to incentivize such persons to make contributions to our company and motivate excellent performance (the “Incentive Plan”). Under the Incentive Plan, we grant awards of restricted stock or restricted stock units to employees and non-employee directors. Awards granted to employees are typically subject to performance and service conditions. Awards granted to non-employee directors are time-based awards subject only to service conditions. Awards granted under the Incentive Plan are measured at the grant date fair value with compensation costs associated with the awards recognized over the requisite service period, usually the vesting period, on a straight-line basis.
The following table presents a summary of stock compensation activity:

| Shares |  | Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value
Outstanding as of September 30, 2024 | 2,699,914 |  |  | $ | 7.91 |
Granted (a) | 1,214,674 |  |  | 10.40 |
Released (b) | (1,130,921) |  |  | 7.89 |
Cancelled | (50,594) |  |  | 9.24 |
Outstanding as of March 31, 2025 | 2,733,073 |  |  | $ | 9.58 |

(a) Includes performance adjustment of 320,076 shares awarded above their target grants resulting from the achievement of performance targets established at the grant date.
(b) 337,481 shares were withheld to satisfy related income tax withholding.
NOTE 9: COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Currently, and from time to time, we are involved in various claims, disputes, lawsuits, investigations, and legal and regulatory proceedings. We accrue for contingencies if it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Because these matters are inherently unpredictable and unfavorable developments or resolutions can occur, assessing contingencies requires judgments and is highly subjective about future events, and the amount of resulting loss may differ from these estimates. We do not believe the resolution of any particular matter will have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.

NOTE 10: SEGMENT INFORMATION
Our operations are primarily managed on a geographical basis and are comprised of three reportable segments. The factors for determining our reportable segments include the manner in which our chief operating decision maker evaluates performance for purposes of allocating resources and assessing performance.
We currently report our segments as follows:
•U.S. Pawn — all pawn activities in the United States;
•Latin America Pawn — all pawn activities in Mexico and other parts of Latin America; and
•Other Investments — primarily our equity interest in Cash Converters and our investment in and notes receivable from Founders.
There are no inter-segment revenues presented below, and the amounts below were determined in accordance with the same accounting principles used in our condensed consolidated financial statements.
The following income (loss) before income taxes tables present revenues for each reportable segment, disaggregated revenues within our reportable segments and Corporate, segment profits and segment contribution.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations is intended to inform the reader about matters affecting the financial condition and results of operations of EZCORP, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, “we,” “us”, “our”, “EZCORP” or the “Company”). The following discussion should be read together with our condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere within this report. This discussion contains forward-looking statements. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements. See “Part I, Item 1A — Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2024, as supplemented by the information set forth in “Part I, Item 3 — Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk” and “Part II, Item 1A — Risk Factors” of this Report, for a discussion of certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions associated with these statements.
Business Developments
2032 Senior Notes
In March 2025, we issued $300.0 million aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 7.375% senior notes due 2032 (the “2032 Senior Notes”), for which $300.0 million remains outstanding as of March 31, 2025. See Note 7 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in "Part I, Item 1 — Financial Statements" of this Report for further discussion.
Termination of Acquisition Agreement
On March 19, 2025, the Company announced the termination of an acquisition agreement with Presta Dinero, S.A. de C.V. for the purchase of 53 pawn stores in Mexico.
Business Overview
EZCORP is a Delaware corporation headquartered in Austin, Texas. We are a leading provider of pawn services in the United States and Latin America. Pawn loans are nonrecourse loans collateralized by personal property. We also sell merchandise, primarily collateral forfeited from unpaid loans and pre-owned merchandise purchased from customers.
We exist to serve our customers’ short-term cash needs, helping them to live and enjoy their lives. We are focused on three strategic pillars:

Strengthen the Core | Relentless focus on superior execution and operational excellence in our pawn business
Cost Efficiency and Simplification | Shape a culture of cost efficiency through ongoing focus on simplification and optimization
Innovate and Grow | Broaden customer engagement to service more customers more frequently in more locations

Pawn Activities
At our pawn stores, we advance cash against the value of collateralized tangible personal property. We earn pawn service charges (“PSC”) for those cash advances, and the PSC rate varies by state and transaction size. At the time of the transaction, we take possession of the pawned collateral, which consists of tangible personal property, generally jewelry, consumer electronics, tools, sporting goods and musical instruments. If the customer chooses to redeem their pawn, they will repay the amount advanced plus any accrued PSC. If the customer chooses not to redeem their pawn, the pawned collateral becomes our inventory, which we sell in our retail merchandise sales activities or, in some cases, scrap for its inherent gold or precious stone content. Consequently, the success of our pawn business is largely dependent on our ability to accurately assess the probability of pawn redemption and the estimated resale or scrap value of the collateralized personal property.
Our ability to offer quality pre-owned 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 estimated resale or scrap value at the time the property is either accepted as pawn collateral or purchased and our ability to sell that merchandise in a timely manner. As a significant portion of our inventory and sales involve gold and jewelry, our results can be influenced by the market price of gold and diamonds.

Growth and Expansion
Our strategy is to expand the number of locations we operate through opening new (“de novo”) locations and through acquisitions and investments in both Latin America, the United States and potential new markets. Our ability to open de novo stores, acquire new stores and make other related investments 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 the availability of qualified personnel.
Seasonality and Quarterly Results
In the United States, PSC is historically highest in our fourth fiscal quarter (July through September) due to a higher average loan balance during the summer lending season. PSC is historically lowest in our third fiscal quarter (April through June) following the tax refund season and merchandise sales are highest in our first and second fiscal quarters (October through March) due to the holiday season, jewelry sales surrounding Valentine’s Day and the availability of tax refunds. In Latin America, most of our customers receive additional compensation from their employers in December, and many receive additional compensation in June or July, applying downward pressure on loan balances and fueling some merchandise sales in those periods. In Mexico, we saw similar downward pressure in loan balances during the third quarter of fiscal 2023 due to a change in law related to company profit sharing payments to employees. We anticipated this change would impact pawn loan redemptions annually in May and June; however, in fiscal 2024, the demand for pawn loans in Mexico exceeded any downward pressure related to profit sharing payments. As a net effect of these and other factors and excluding discrete charges, our consolidated income before tax is generally highest in our first fiscal quarter (October through December) and lowest in our third fiscal quarter (April through June).
Financial Highlights
We remain focused on optimizing our balance of pawn loans outstanding (“PLO”) and the resulting higher PSC. The following chart presents sources of gross profit, including PSC, merchandise sales gross profit (“Merchandise sales GP”) and jewelry scrapping gross profit (“Jewelry Scrapping GP”) for the three and six months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024:

Results of Operations
Non-GAAP Constant Currency and Same-Store Financial Information
To supplement our condensed consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, we provide certain other non-GAAP financial information on a constant currency basis (“constant currency”) and “same-store” basis. We use constant currency results to evaluate our Latin America Pawn operations, which are denominated primarily in Mexican pesos, Guatemalan quetzales and other Latin American currencies. We analyze results on a same-store basis (which is defined as stores open during the entirety of the comparable periods) to better understand existing store performance without the influence of increases or decreases resulting solely from changes in store count. We believe presentation of constant currency and same-store results is meaningful and useful in understanding the activities and business metrics of our Latin America Pawn operations and reflects an additional way of viewing aspects of our business that, when viewed with GAAP results, provides a better understanding and evaluation 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 rather than 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. In addition, we have an equity method investment that is denominated in Australian dollars and is translated into U.S. dollars. 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. Our statement of operations constant currency results reflect the monthly exchange rate fluctuations and are not directly calculable from the rates below. Constant currency results, where presented, also exclude the foreign currency gain or loss. 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, 2025 and 2024 were as follows:

| March 31, |  | Three Months Ended March 31, |  | Six Months Ended March 31, |  |

(a) | Balance includes pawn loans and inventory.
(b) | Balance is calculated based upon the average of the monthly ending balances during the applicable period.

PLO ended the quarter at $199.4 million, up 15% on a total and same-store basis due to increase in average loan size, increased loan demand and improved operational performance.
Total revenues increased 7% and gross profit increased 8%, reflecting higher PSC.
PSC increased 9% as a result of higher average PLO, partially offset by lower PLO yield.
Merchandise sales increased 2%, and gross margin decreased to 36% from 37%. Aged general merchandise, which is inventory over one year old, decreased by 14 basis points to 2.8%, or $1.3 million of total general merchandise inventory. Excluding our three Max Pawn luxury stores in Las Vegas, aged general merchandise was 1.5%.
Net inventory increased 29%, due to the increase in PLO, increase in customer layaways and a decrease in inventory turnover to 2.3x, from 2.6x.

Store expenses increased 3% (2% on a same-store basis) primarily due to labor, the majority of which was offset by a decrease in expenses related to our loyalty program.

PLO improved to $62.4 million, up 1% (17% on constant currency basis). On a same-store basis, PLO decreased 2% (14% increase on a constant currency basis). The constant currency increase was due to improved operational performance and increased loan demand.
Total revenues were up 9% (25% on constant currency basis), and gross profit increased 3% (18% on a constant currency basis), mainly due to increased PSC.
PSC increased to $28.3 million, up 4% (19% on a constant currency basis) as a result of higher average PLO.
Merchandise sales increased 5% (21% on constant currency basis) and merchandise sales gross margin decreased to 30% from 33%. Aged general merchandise increased to 1.9% from 1.4% of total general merchandise inventory.
Net inventory increased 23% (44% on a constant currency basis) due to increase in PLO and decrease in inventory turnover to 3.2x, from 3.6x.
Store expenses decreased 2% (13% increase on a constant currency basis) and decreased 4% on a same-store basis (11% increase on a constant currency basis). The constant currency increase was primarily due to increased labor, in line with store activity and minimum wage increases, offset by a decrease in expenses related to our loyalty program.
Segment contribution increased 30% to $10.6 million (43% on a constant currency basis), due to the changes noted above.
Segment store count increased by one to 742 due to the addition of nine de novo stores, the acquisition of one store, and the consolidation of nine stores.

Segment contribution increased $9.0 million or 18% over the prior year quarter, primarily due to improved operating results of the U.S. Pawn and Latin America Pawn segments above.
General and administrative expense increased $1.4 million or 8%, primarily due to labor and a gain on a corporate lease termination in the prior year.
Income tax expense increased $1.9 million primarily due to an increase in income before taxes of $5.8 million, as well as an increase in the effective tax rate due to an increase in non-deductible officer’s compensation and non-deductible expenses.
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 the foreign rate differential.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Our cash and cash equivalents balance was $505.2 million at March 31, 2025 compared to $170.5 million at September 30, 2024. At March 31, 2025, our cash and equivalents were held in cash depository accounts with major banks or invested in high quality, short-term liquid investments.
Cash Flows
The table and discussion below presents a summary of the selected sources and uses of our cash:

| Six Months Ended March 31, |  | Percentage Change
(in thousands) | 2025 |  | 2024 |
Net cash provided by operating activities | $ | 62,928 |  |  | $ | 36,548 |  |  | 72%
Net cash used in investing activities | (14,781) |  |  | (18,242) |  |  | (19)%
Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities | 286,456 |  |  | (9,539) |  |  | *
Effect of exchange rate changes on cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash | 328 |  |  | (43) |  |  | *
Net increase in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash | $ | 334,931 |  |  | $ | 8,724 |  |  | *

* | Represents a percentage computation that is not mathematically meaningful.

The $26.4 million increase in cash flows provided by operating activities year-over-year was primarily due to an increase in net income as well as changes in working capital primarily related to the timing of payments of accounts payable, prepaid expenses, customer layaway deposits, inventory and income taxes.
The $3.5 million decrease in cash flows used in investing activities year-over-year was primarily due to a $23.7 million decrease in net cash flows used related to investments, acquisitions and capital expenditures, a $10.0 million increase in cash inflows from the sale of forfeited collateral, partially offset by an $30.3 million increase in net pawn lending outflows.
The $296.0 million increase in cash flows provided by financing activities was primarily related to the March 2025 financing of the 2032 Senior Notes, in which we issued $300.0 million principal amount (less issuance costs) of 7.375% senior notes due 2032.
The net effect of these changes was a $334.9 million increase in cash on hand during the current year to date period, resulting in a $514.7 million ending cash and restricted cash balance.
Sources and Uses of Cash
In March 2025, we issued $300.0 million aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 7.375% senior notes due 2032 (the “2032 Senior Notes”), for which $300.0 million remains outstanding as of March 31, 2025. See Note 7 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in “Part I, Item 1 — Financial Statements” of this Report for further discussion. If the 2025 Convertible Notes holders do not convert, the Company expects to use approximately $103.4 million of the net proceeds from the offering of the Notes to repay its outstanding 2025 Convertible Notes at maturity and any excess proceeds for general corporate purposes.
On May 3, 2022, our Board authorized the repurchase of up to $50 million of our Class A Common Stock over three years. As of March 31, 2025, we have repurchased 3,178,147 shares of our Class A Common Stock under the program for $30.0 million. Execution of the program will be responsive to fluctuating market conditions and valuations, liquidity needs and the expected return on investment compared to other opportunities.
Under the stock repurchase program, we may purchase Class A Non-Voting common stock from time to time at management’s discretion in accordance with applicable securities laws, including through open market transactions, block or privately negotiated transactions, or any combination thereof. In addition, we may purchase shares pursuant to a trading plan meeting the requirements of Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
33

Table of Contents
The amount and timing of purchases will be dependent on a variety of factors, including stock price, trading volume, general market conditions, legal and regulatory requirements, general business conditions, the level of cash flows and corporate considerations determined by management and the Board, such as liquidity and capital needs and the availability of attractive alternative investment opportunities. The Board of Directors has reserved the right to modify, suspend or terminate the program at any time. See Note 8 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in “Part I, Item 1 — Financial Statements.”
We anticipate that cash flows from operations and cash on hand will be adequate to fund ongoing operations, current debt service requirements, tax payments, any future stock repurchases, strategic investments, our contractual obligations, planned de novo store growth, capital expenditures and working capital requirements through the next twelve months. We continue to explore 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 May 2025 and 2029 and the 2032 Senior Notes maturing in April 2032, 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, 2024, we reported that we had $673.5 million in total contractual obligations as of September 30, 2024. There have been no material changes to this total obligation since September 30, 2024, other than the 2032 Senior Notes financing as further discussed in Note 7: Debt of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in “Part I, Item 1 — Financial Statements.”
We are responsible for the maintenance, property taxes and insurance at most of our locations. In the fiscal year ended September 30, 2024, these collectively amounted to $17.7 million.
Recently Adopted Accounting Policies and Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
See Note 1 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in “Part I, Item 1 — Financial Statements” of this Quarterly Report for recently issued accounting pronouncements including the expected dates of adoption and estimated effects, if any, on our consolidated financial statements.
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, 2024 and “Part II, Item 1A — Risk Factors” of this 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, 2024. There have been no material changes in our reported market risks or risk management policies since the filing of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2024.

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, 2025. Our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that as of March 31, 2025, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2025 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Inherent Limitations on Internal Controls
Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls or our internal controls 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 control system’s objectives will be met. 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, within the Company have been detected. The design of any system of controls is based in part upon 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.

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, 2024, as supplemented by the information set forth below.
Our incurrence of debt in the form of the 2032 Senior Notes could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations
In March 2025, we incurred debt in the aggregate principal amount of $300.0 million in the form of the 2032 Senior Notes. See Note 7 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in "Part I, Item 1 — Financial Statements" of this Report. The indebtedness could increase the cost of future financing or otherwise limit our ability to obtain financing, including the refinancing of existing debt. The application of cash flow to repayment of our indebtedness could restrict funds available for other uses, including working capital, growth, and other general corporate purposes, which could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.
