Accounting Policies [Abstract] |
Basis of Presentation | 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, 2025, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on November 13, 2025 (“2025 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 periods presented are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2026 or any other period due, in part, to seasonal variations.
Reclassifications | Beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2026, following a review of segment expenses to better align direct operating expenses with the respective segments, we modified our methodology for allocating certain expenses used in evaluating financial and segment performance and resource allocation. Specifically, we no longer allocate certain administrative expenses to our Latin America Pawn and U.S. Pawn segments; these costs are now reported within the "General and administrative" line in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. We have recast the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and segment contribution for prior periods to conform to this methodology. This resulted in a classification change of certain expenses totalling $5.5 million from Store expenses to General and administrative for the three months ended December 31, 2024. Additionally, segment contribution no longer includes certain administrative allocations to segments; these costs are now included within Corporate. Refer to Note 11: Segment Information. There was no impact to Total operating expenses, Operating income, or Net income on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Use of Estimates and Assumptions | 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 | 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.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements | Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements 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 annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted, and the amendments should be applied on a prospective basis. Retrospective application is permitted. The adoption of this ASU is expected to only impact disclosures with respect to the Company’s consolidated financial statements. 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 May 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-03, Business Combinations (Topic 805) and Consolidation (Topic 810): Determining the Accounting Acquirer in the Acquisition of a Variable Interest Entity (“ASU 2025-03”). ASU 2025-03 revises current guidance for determining the accounting acquirer for a transaction effected primarily by exchanging equity interests in which the legal acquiree is a variable interest entity that meets the definition of a business. The amendments require that an entity consider the same factors that are currently required for determining which entity is the accounting acquirer in other acquisition transactions. The requirements of ASU 2025-03 are effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within those periods. Early adoption is permitted as of the beginning of an interim or annual reporting period. We are currently evaluating the impact of this standard on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-use Software: Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-use Software which amends the guidance in ASC 350-40, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Internal-Use Software. The amendments modernize the recognition and disclosure framework for internal-use software costs, removing the previous “development stage” model and introducing a more judgment-based approach. ASU 2025-06 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027 with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of this standard on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. In November 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-08, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Purchased Loans. ASU 2025-08 expands the use of the gross up method to certain acquired loans. Purchased season loans will be accounted for using the gross-up approach. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, including interim periods within those fiscal years. We are currently evaluating the impact of this standard on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-11, Interim Reporting (Topic 270), which clarifies the scope of interim reporting requirements and introduces a principles-based framework for disclosure of material events occurring after the most recent annual period. The ASU also consolidates interim disclosure requirements from other Codification topics into ASC 270. The guidance is effective for interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of this standard on our interim reporting disclosures.
