CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES THAT MAY AFFECT FUTURE RESULTS
Forward-Looking Information
This quarterly report contains forward-looking statements about the business, financial condition and prospects of First Cash Financial Services, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries (together, the “Company”). Forward-looking statements, as that term is defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “believes,” “projects,” “expects,” “may,” “estimates,” “should,” “plans,” “targets,” “intends,” “could,” or “anticipates,” or the negative thereof, or other variations thereon, or comparable terminology, or by discussions of strategy or objectives. Forward-looking statements can also be identified by the fact that these statements do not relate strictly to historical or current matters. Rather, forward-looking statements relate to anticipated or expected events, activities, trends or results. Because forward-looking statements relate to matters that have not yet occurred, these statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties.
Forward-looking statements in this quarterly report include, without limitation, the Company’s expectations of earnings per share, earnings growth, expansion strategies, regulatory exposures, store openings, liquidity (including the availability of capital under existing credit facilities), cash flow, consumer demand for the Company’s products and services, income tax rates, currency exchange rates and the price of gold and the impacts thereof, earnings and related transaction expenses from acquisitions, the ability to successfully integrate acquisitions and other performance results. These statements are made to provide the public with management’s current assessment of the Company’s business. Although the Company believes the expectations reflected in forward-looking statements are reasonable, there can be no assurances such expectations will prove to be accurate. Security holders are cautioned such forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties. Certain factors may cause results to differ materially from those anticipated by the forward-looking statements made in this quarterly report. Such factors are difficult to predict and many are beyond the control of the Company and may include, without limitation, the following:
• | changes in regional, national or international economic conditions, including inflation rates, unemployment rates and energy prices; |
• | changes in consumer demand, including purchasing, borrowing and repayment behaviors; |
• | changes in pawn forfeiture rates and credit loss provisions; |
• | changes in the market value of pawn collateral and merchandise inventories, including gold prices and the value of consumer electronics and other products; |
• | changes or increases in competition; |
• | the ability to locate, open and staff new stores and successfully integrate acquisitions; |
• | the availability or access to sources of used merchandise inventory; |
• | changes in credit markets, interest rates and the ability to establish, renew and/or extend the Company’s debt financing; |
• | the ability to maintain banking relationships for treasury services and processing of certain consumer lending transactions; |
• | the ability to hire and retain key management personnel; |
• | new federal, state or local legislative initiatives or governmental regulations (or changes to existing laws and regulations) affecting pawn businesses, consumer loan businesses and credit services organizations (in both the United States and Mexico); |
• | risks and uncertainties related to foreign operations in Mexico; |
• | changes in import/export regulations and tariffs or duties; |
• | changes in anti-money laundering and gun control regulations; |
• | unforeseen litigation; |
• | changes in tax rates or policies in the U.S. and Mexico; |
• | changes in foreign currency exchange rates; |
• | inclement weather, natural disasters and public health issues; |
• | security breaches, cyber attacks or fraudulent activity; |
• | a prolonged interruption in the Company’s operations of its facilities, systems, and business functions, including its information technology and other business systems; |
• | the implementation of new, or changes in the interpretation of existing, accounting principles or financial reporting requirements; and |
• | future business decisions. |
These and other risks, uncertainties and regulatory developments are further and more completely described in the Company’s 2013 annual report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 28, 2014, including the risks described in "Risk Factors" of the Company's annual report and this quarterly report. Many of these risks and uncertainties are beyond the ability of the Company to control, nor can the Company predict, in many cases, all of the risks and uncertainties that could cause its actual results to differ materially from those indicated by the forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements contained in this quarterly report speak only as of the date of this quarterly report, and the Company expressly disclaims any obligation or undertaking to report any updates or revisions to any such statement to reflect any change in the Company’s expectations or any change in events, conditions or circumstances on which any such statement is based, except as required by law.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
Note 1 - Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2013, which is derived from audited financial statements, and the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, including the notes thereto, include the accounts of First Cash Financial Services, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (together, the “Company”). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
These unaudited consolidated financial statements are condensed and do not include all disclosures and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America for complete financial statements. These interim period financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's consolidated financial statements, which are included in the Company's annual report for the year ended December 31, 2013, on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on February 28, 2014. The condensed consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2014 and 2013, and for the three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, are unaudited, but in management's opinion, include all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flow for such interim periods. Operating results for the periods ended September 30, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full fiscal year.
The Company manages its pawn and consumer loan operations under three operating segments: U.S. pawn operations, U.S. consumer loan operations and Mexico operations. The three operating segments have been aggregated into one reportable segment because they have similar economic characteristics and similar long-term financial performance metrics. Additionally, all three segments offer similar and overlapping products and services to a similar customer demographic, operate in similar regulatory environments, and are supported by a single, centralized administrative support platform.
The Company has significant operations in Mexico where the functional currency for the Company's Mexican subsidiaries is the Mexican peso. Accordingly, the assets and liabilities of these subsidiaries are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate in effect at each balance sheet date, and the resulting adjustments are accumulated in other comprehensive income (loss) as a separate component of stockholders’ equity. Revenue and expenses are translated at the average exchange rates occurring during the three-month and year-to-date periods.
Certain amounts in prior year comparative presentations have been reclassified in order to conform to the 2014 presentation.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In April 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU No. 2014-08, “Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205) and Property, Plant, and Equipment (Topic 360)” (“ASU 2014-08”). The amendments in ASU 2014-08 require that a disposal representing a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on an entity’s financial results or a business activity classified as held for sale should be reported as discontinued operations. The amendments also expand the disclosure requirements for discontinued operations and add new disclosures for individually significant dispositions that do not qualify as discontinued operations. The amendments are effective prospectively for fiscal years, and interim reporting periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2014 (early adoption is permitted only for disposals that have not been previously reported). The Company does not expect ASU 2014-08 to have a material effect on the Company’s current financial position, results of operations or financial statement disclosures, however, it may impact the reporting of future discontinued operations if and when they occur.
In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)” (“ASU 2014-09”). ASU 2014-09 is a comprehensive new revenue recognition model that requires a company to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to a customer at an amount that reflects the consideration it expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 also requires additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments and assets recognized from costs incurred to obtain or fulfill a contract. ASU 2014-09 is effective for annual reporting periods, and interim periods within that period, beginning after December 15, 2016 and early adoption is not permitted. The Company does not expect ASU 2014-09 to have a material effect on the Company’s current financial position or results of operations, however, it may impact the reporting of future financial statement disclosures.

Note 3 - Acquisitions
The Company completed acquisitions during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 as described below consistent with its strategy to continue its expansion of pawn stores in selected markets. The purchase price of each acquisition was allocated to assets and liabilities acquired based upon their estimated fair market values at the date of acquisition. The excess purchase price over the estimated fair market value of the net assets acquired has been recorded as goodwill. The goodwill arising from these acquisitions consist largely of the synergies and economies of scale expected from combining the operations of the Company and the pawn stores acquired.
In August 2014, the Company acquired from Cash America of Mexico, Inc. the operating entity owning the pawn loans, inventory, layaways and other operating assets and liabilities of 47 large format pawn stores located in 13 states in Mexico (“Mexico Acquisition”). The purchase price for the all-cash transaction was approximately $18,481,000, net of cash acquired and subject to certain working capital adjustments. The estimated fair values of the assets and liabilities acquired are preliminary, as the Company is gathering information to finalize the valuation of these assets and liabilities. The assets, liabilities and results of operations of the locations are included in the Company’s consolidated results as of the acquisition date, August 25, 2014.
Additionally, during the nine months ended September 30, 2014, 10 pawn stores located in two U.S. states were acquired in three separate asset purchase transactions (“Other U.S. Acquisitions”) for an aggregate purchase price of $14,534,000, net of cash acquired, and was composed of $14,384,000 in cash and payables to the sellers of $150,000.

(1) | Substantially all of the goodwill is expected to be deductible for foreign and U.S. income tax purposes. |
(2) | Intangible assets primarily consist of customer relationships, which are included in other non-current assets in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. Customer relationships are generally amortized over 5 years. |
During the nine months ended September 30, 2014, revenue from the 2014 acquisitions since the acquisition dates was $4,943,000. The combined transaction and one-time integration costs of the 2014 acquisitions recorded during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 were approximately $375,000. During the nine months ended September 30, 2014, the net earnings from the 2014 acquisitions since the acquisition dates (including acquisition and integration costs) were not material.
Note 4 - Long-Term Debt
Senior Unsecured Notes
On March 24, 2014, the Company completed the private offering of $200,000,000 of 6.75% senior notes due on April 1, 2021 (the “Notes”). Interest on the Notes is payable semi-annually in arrears on April 1 and October 1, commencing on October 1, 2014. The Notes were sold to the placement agents as initial purchasers for resale only to qualified institutional buyers in accordance with Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and outside the United States in accordance with Regulation S under the Securities Act. The net proceeds from the sale of the Notes were approximately $194,800,000. The Company used $153,411,000 of the net proceeds from the offering to repay all amounts then outstanding under the 2014 Credit Facility (defined below) and to pay off the remaining balances on notes payable related to previous pawn store acquisitions, leaving approximately $41,389,000 of the net proceeds available for general corporate purposes. The Company capitalized approximately $5,200,000 in issuance costs, which consisted primarily of placement agent fees and legal and other professional expenses. The issuance costs are being amortized over the life of the Notes as a component of interest expense.
The Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis jointly and severally by all of the Company's existing and future domestic subsidiaries that guarantee the 2014 Credit Facility. The Company may redeem the Notes at any time on or after April 1, 2017, at the redemption prices set forth in the indenture governing the Notes (the “Indenture”), plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any. Prior to April 1, 2017, the Company may redeem some or all of the Notes at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, plus a “make-whole” premium set forth in the Indenture. The Company may also redeem up to 35% of the Notes prior to April 1, 2017, with the proceeds of certain equity offerings at a redemption price of 106.75% of the principal amount of the Notes redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any. In addition, upon a change of control, noteholders have the right to require the Company to purchase the Notes at a price equal to 101% of the principal amount of the Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any.
On March 24, 2014, the Company entered into a registration rights agreement with the initial purchasers of the Notes. Pursuant to the registration rights agreement, the Company agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts to issue in exchange for the Notes, generally no later than approximately 245 days following the closing date of the issuance and sale of the Notes, identical new notes that have been registered under the Securities Act. In certain circumstances, the Company may be required to file a shelf
8
registration statement to cover resales of the Notes. Pursuant to the registration rights agreement, the Company caused a registration statement on Form S-4 to be declared effective by the SEC in July 2014 and completed an offer to exchange the unregistered Notes with identical new notes registered under the Securities Act in September 2014.
Revolving Credit Facilities
During the period from January 1, 2014 through February 4, 2014, the Company maintained a revolving line of credit agreement with its lenders (the “2012 Credit Facility”) in the amount of $205,000,000, which was scheduled to mature in February 2015. The 2012 Credit Facility charged interest at the prevailing 30-day London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) plus a fixed spread of 2.0%.
On February 5, 2014, the Company entered into an agreement with a group of commercial lenders to establish a new revolving credit facility (the “2014 Credit Facility”) in the amount of $160,000,000 with an accordion feature whereby the facility may be increased up to an additional $50,000,000 with the consent of any increasing or additional participating lenders. The Company used proceeds from the 2014 Credit Facility and available cash balances to retire and terminate the 2012 Credit Facility. The 2014 Credit Facility matures in February 2019 and bears interest, at the Company's option, at either (i) the prevailing LIBOR rate (with interest periods of 1, 2, 3 or 6 months at the Company's option) plus a fixed spread of 2.5% or (ii) the prevailing prime or base rate plus a fixed spread of 1.5%. The Company is required to maintain certain financial ratios and comply with certain financial covenants, including compliance with a leverage ratio of no greater than 2.5 times Consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the 2014 Credit Facility) and a fixed charge coverage ratio. The 2014 Credit Facility limits the Company's ability to incur additional indebtedness, subject to customary exceptions, including permitted additional unsecured debt so long as the aggregate principal amount of the loans and commitments under the 2014 Credit Facility plus such additional unsecured debt plus foreign third-party loans does not in the aggregate exceed $500,000,000. The 2014 Credit Facility is unsecured except for the pledge of 65% of the voting equity interests of the Company's foreign subsidiaries, and the Company is restricted from pledging any of its other assets as collateral against other indebtedness. The 2014 Credit Facility is guaranteed by the Company's material U.S. operating subsidiaries. The 2014 Credit Facility allows the Company to repurchase shares of its stock and to pay cash dividends within certain parameters. The Company is required to pay an annual commitment fee of 0.50% on the average daily unused portion of the 2014 Credit Facility commitment. During March 2014, the Company used $145,870,000 of the proceeds from the sale of the Notes to repay all amounts outstanding under the 2014 Credit Facility. At September 30, 2014, the Company had $17,500,000 outstanding under the 2014 Credit Facility and $142,500,000 was available for borrowings. The interest rate on amounts outstanding under the 2014 Credit Facility at September 30, 2014 was 2.69% based on the prevailing 30-day LIBOR rate.
Other Notes Payable
In March 2014, the Company used $7,541,000 of the proceeds from the sale of the Notes to repay the entire remaining balances on notes payable of $6,134,000 related to a September 2012 multi-store acquisition and a note payable of $1,407,000 related to a January 2012 multi-store acquisition.
Note 5 - Income Taxes
In July 2013, the Company terminated an election to include foreign subsidiaries in its consolidated U.S. federal income tax return and it is the Company's intent to indefinitely reinvest the earnings of these subsidiaries outside the U.S. Accordingly, under U.S. income tax law, as of December 31, 2013, the undistributed earnings of the foreign subsidiaries is not subject to U.S. federal income taxes. The Company recognized an estimated non-recurring net income tax benefit of approximately $3,979,000 in 2013 related primarily to changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities, net of certain one-time U.S. tax liabilities associated with the termination of the election. The Company recorded an additional benefit of $3,669,000 in March 2014 as the result of a change in its estimated U.S. federal tax liability associated with the terminated election.
Note 6 - Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The fair value of financial instruments is determined by reference to various market data and other valuation techniques, as appropriate. Financial assets and liabilities are classified based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company's assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment, and may affect the valuation of the fair value of assets and liabilities and their placement within the fair value hierarchy levels. The three levels are (from highest to lowest):
9
Level 1: Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2: Observable market-based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data.
Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data.
As cash and cash equivalents have maturities of less than three months, the carrying values of cash and cash equivalents approximate fair value (Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy). Due to their short-term maturities, pawn loans, consumer loans (net), pawn loan fees and service charges receivable approximate fair value (Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy).
The carrying value of the 2012 Credit Facility approximated fair value as of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2013. The carrying value of the 2014 Credit Facility approximated fair value as of September 30, 2014. The fair value of the Notes was approximately $209,000,000 as of September 30, 2014 compared to a carrying value of $200,000,000. These fair values have been estimated based on a discounted cash flow analysis using a discount rate representing the Company’s estimate of the rate that would be used by market participants (Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy). Changes in assumptions or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on these estimated fair values.
Note 7 - Condensed Consolidating Guarantor Financial Statements
In connection with the issuance of the Notes, certain of the Company's domestic subsidiaries (collectively, "Guarantor Subsidiaries”), fully, unconditionally, jointly and severally guaranteed the payment obligations under the Notes. Each of the Guarantor Subsidiaries is 100% owned, directly or indirectly, by the Company. The following supplemental financial information sets forth, on a consolidating basis, the balance sheets, statements of comprehensive income and statements of cash flows of First Cash Financial Services, Inc. (the “Parent Company”), the Guarantor Subsidiaries and the Parent Company's other subsidiaries (the “Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries”).
The supplemental condensed consolidating financial information has been prepared pursuant to SEC rules and regulations for interim condensed financial information and does not include the more complete disclosures included in annual financial statements. Investments in consolidated subsidiaries have been presented under the equity method of accounting. The principal eliminating entries eliminate investments in subsidiaries, intercompany balances and intercompany revenues and expenses. The condensed financial information may not necessarily be indicative of the results of operations or financial position had the Guarantor Subsidiaries or Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries operated as independent entities.
