This report contains 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. You should not place undue reliance on these statements. These forward-looking statements give current expectations or forecasts of future events and reflect the views and assumptions of senior management with respect to the business, financial condition, operations and prospects of Enova International, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”). When used in this report, terms such as “believes,” “estimates,” “should,” “could,” “would,” “plans,” “expects,” “intends,” “anticipates,” “may,” “forecast,” “project” and similar expressions or variations as they relate to the Company or its management are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements address matters that involve risks and uncertainties that are beyond the ability of the Company to control and, in some cases, predict. Accordingly, there are or will be important factors that could cause the Company’s actual results to differ materially from those indicated in these statements. Key factors that could cause the Company’s actual financial results, performance or condition to differ from the expectations expressed or implied in such forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, the following:

·

the effect of laws and regulations targeting our industry that directly or indirectly regulate or prohibit our operations or render them unprofitable or impractical;

·

the effect of and compliance with domestic and international consumer credit, tax and other laws and government rules and regulations applicable to our business, including changes in such laws, rules and regulations, or changes in the interpretation or enforcement thereof, and the regulatory and examination authority of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau with respect to providers of consumer financial products and services in the United States and the Financial Conduct Authority in the United Kingdom;

·

changes in our U.K. business practices in response to the requirements of the Financial Conduct Authority;

·

the effect of and compliance with enforcement actions, orders and agreements issued by applicable regulators, such as the November 2013 Consent Order issued by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau;

·

our ability to process or collect payments through the Automated Clearing House system;

·

the deterioration of the political, regulatory or economic environment in countries where we operate or in the future may operate;

·

the actions of third parties who provide, acquire or offer products and services to, from or for us;

·

public and regulatory perception of the consumer loan business, the finance receivables industry and our business practices;

·

the effect of any current or future litigation proceedings and any judicial decisions or rulemaking that affects us, our products or the legality or enforceability of our arbitration agreements;

·

changes in demand for our services, changes in competition and the continued acceptance of the online channel by our customers;

·

changes in our ability to satisfy our debt obligations or to refinance existing debt obligations or obtain new capital to finance growth;

·

a prolonged interruption in the operations of our facilities, systems and business functions, including our information technology and other business systems;

·

our ability to maintain an allowance or liability for estimated losses on loans and finance receivables that is adequate to absorb credit losses;

·

compliance with laws and regulations applicable to our international operations, including anti-corruption laws such as the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and the U.K. Bribery Act 2010 and international anti-money laundering, trade and economic sanctions laws;

·

our ability to attract and retain qualified officers;

·

interest rate and foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations;

·

the effect of any of the above changes on our business or the markets in which we operate; and

·

other risks and uncertainties described herein.


The foregoing list of factors is not exhaustive and new factors may emerge or changes to these factors may occur that would impact the Company’s business and cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in any of our forward looking statements. Additional information regarding these and other factors may be contained in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Readers of this report are encouraged to review all of the Risk Factors contained in the Company’s filings with the SEC to obtain more detail about the Company’s risks and uncertainties. All forward-looking statements involve risks, assumptions and uncertainties. The occurrence of the events described, and the achievement of the expected results, depends on many events, some or all of which are not predictable or within the Company’s control. If one or more events related to these or other risks or uncertainties materialize, or if management’s underlying assumptions prove to be incorrect, actual results may differ materially from what the Company anticipates. The forward-looking statements in this report are made as of the date of this report, and the Company disclaims any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances occurring after the date of this report. All forward-looking statements in this report are expressly qualified in their entirety by the foregoing cautionary statements.

Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

On September 7, 2011, Cash America International, Inc. (“Cash America”) formed a new company, Enova International, Inc. (the “Company”). On September 13, 2011, Cash America contributed to the Company all of the stock of its wholly-owned subsidiary, Enova Online Services, Inc., in exchange for 33 million shares of the Company’s common stock.

On November 13, 2014, Cash America completed the tax-free spin-off of approximately 80% of the outstanding shares of the Company to holders of Cash America’s common stock (the “Spin-off”). Cash America’s shareholders received 0.915 shares of Company common stock for every one share of Cash America common stock held at the close of business November 3, 2014, which was the record date for the distribution. Following the Spin-off, the Company became an independent, publicly traded company, and the Company’s shares of common stock are listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “ENVA.”

The consolidated financial statements of the Company reflect the historical results of operations and cash flows of the Company during each respective period. The financial statements include goodwill and intangible assets arising from businesses previously acquired. Prior to the Spin-off, the financial statements also included the allocation of certain assets and liabilities that had historically been held at the Cash America corporate level but which were specifically identifiable or allocable to the Company. Certain transactions with Cash America, such as stock-based compensation and foreign currency transactions, were considered to be effectively settled as net equity transactions with Cash America in “Retained earnings” in the consolidated balance sheets at the time the transaction was recorded. Prior to May 30, 2014, all intercompany transactions between the Company and Cash America were considered to be effectively settled in the financial statements at the time the transactions were recorded. The net effect of the settlement of these transactions was primarily reflected as a change in “Long-term debt” in the consolidated balance sheets. In addition, the historical financial statements include allocations of costs relating to certain functions historically provided by Cash America, including corporate services such as executive oversight, insurance and risk management, government relations, internal audit, treasury, licensing, and to a limited extent finance, accounting, tax, legal, human resources, compensation and benefits, compliance and support for certain information systems related to financial reporting. The expense allocations have been determined on a basis that Cash America and the Company consider to be reasonable reflections of the utilization of services provided by Cash America. Also see Note 10 for additional information on the Company’s relationship with Cash America. The financial information included herein for the prior year period may not be indicative of the consolidated financial position, operating results, changes in stockholder’s equity and cash flows of the Company in the future, or if the Company had been a separate company during the prior year period presented.

In June 2015, the Company completed the purchase of certain assets of a small company that offers a receivables purchase agreement product (“RPAs”). RPAs provide working capital for small businesses in exchange for a portion of the business’s future receivables at an agreed upon discount. Whereas lending is a commitment to repay principal and interest, future receivables purchasing is the advance purchase of an agreed upon amount of a business’s future receivables at a discount. The small business customer repays this advance, usually on a daily basis, through ACH debits or by splitting credit card receipts. “Loans and finance receivables” include consumer loans, small business loans, and RPAs.

The financial statements presented as of June 30, 2015 and 2014 and December 31, 2014 and for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 are unaudited but, in management’s opinion, include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of the results for such interim periods. Operating results for the three- and six-month periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full fiscal year.

These financial statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2014 and 2013 and for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012 and related notes, which are included on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 20, 2015.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue based on the financing products and services it offers. “Revenue” in the consolidated statements of income includes: interest income, finance charges, fees for services provided through the Company’s credit services organization and credit access business programs (“CSO programs”), or CSO fees, revenue on RPAs, service charges, draw fees, minimum fees, late fees, non-sufficient funds fees and any other fees or charges permitted by applicable laws and pursuant to the agreement with the customer. For short-term loans that the Company offers, interest and finance charges are recognized on an effective yield basis over the term of the loan, and fees are recognized when assessed to the customer. CSO fees are recognized on an effective yield basis over the term of the loan. For line of credit accounts, interest is recognized over the reporting period based upon the balance outstanding

and the contractual interest rate, and fees are recognized when assessed to the customer. For installment loans, interest is recognized on an effective yield basis over the term of the loan and fees are recognized when assessed to the customer. For RPAs, revenue is recognized on an effective yield basis over the estimated term of the agreements and fees are recognized when assessed. Direct costs associated with originating loans and RPAs, such as third-party customer acquisition costs, are deferred and amortized against revenue on an effective yield basis over the expected term of the loan or finance receivable. Short-term loans, line of credit accounts, installment loans, RPAs, unpaid and accrued interest, fees and revenue and deferred origination costs are included in “Loans and finance receivables, net” in the consolidated balance sheets.

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired in each business combination. In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification, or ASC, 350, Goodwill, the Company tests goodwill and intangible assets with an indefinite life for potential impairment annually as of June 30 and between annual tests if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value below its carrying amount.

The Company uses the income approach to complete its annual goodwill assessment. The income approach uses future cash flows and estimated terminal values for the Company that are discounted using a market participant perspective to determine the fair value, which is then compared to the carrying value to determine if there is impairment. The income approach includes assumptions about revenue growth rates, operating margins and terminal growth rates discounted by an estimated weighted-average cost of capital derived from other publicly-traded companies that are similar but not identical from an operational and economic standpoint. The Company completed its annual assessment of goodwill as of June 30, 2015 and determined that the fair value of its goodwill exceeded carrying value, and, as a result, no impairment existed at that date. A 10% decrease in the estimated fair value for the June 2015 assessment would not have resulted in a goodwill impairment. Although no goodwill impairment was noted, there can be no assurances that future goodwill impairments will not occur.

Recent Accounting Standards

In June 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2015-10, Technical Corrections and Improvements (“ASU 2015-10”). ASU 2015-10 covers a wide range of topics in the Codification. The amendments in this update represent changes to clarify the Codification, correct unintended application of guidance, or make minor improvements to the Codification that are not expected to have a significant effect on current accounting practice or create a significant administrative cost on most entities. The Company does not anticipate that the adoption of this standard will have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.

In May 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-08, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Pushdown Accounting - Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 115 (“ASU 2015-08”). The amendments in ASU 2015-08 amend various SEC paragraphs included in the FASB’s Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) to reflect the issuance of Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 115 (“SAB 115”). SAB 115 rescinds portions of the interpretive guidance included in the SEC’s Staff Accounting Bulletins series and brings existing guidance into conformity with ASU No. 2014-17, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Pushdown Accounting, which provides an acquired entity with an option to apply pushdown accounting in its separate financial statements upon occurrence of an event in which an acquirer obtains control of the acquired entity. The Company has adopted the amendments in ASU 2015-08, effective May 2015, as the amendments in the update are effective upon issuance, and the adoption did not have a material effect on its financial position or results of operations.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015‑05, Customer’s Accounting for Fees Paid in a Cloud Computing Arrangement (“ASU 2015-05”), which amends Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 350‑40, Internal-Use Software, by providing customers with guidance on determining whether a cloud computing arrangement contains a software license that should be accounted for as internal-use software. ASU 2015-05 is effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2015. The Company is still assessing the potential impact of ASU 2015-05 on its financial position and results of operations.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs (“ASU 2015-03”), which amends existing guidance to require the presentation of debt issuance costs in the consolidated balance sheets as a deduction from the carrying amount of the related debt liability instead of a deferred charge (as an asset). ASU 2015-03 is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015, but early adoption is permitted. When adopted, the new guidance will be applied retrospectively to all prior reporting periods presented. The Company will adopt ASU 2015-03 on January 1, 2016, however, as of June 30, 2015, the Company had $13.4 million of unamortized debt issuance costs. These amounts are recorded in “Other assets” in the consolidated balance sheets.

ENOVA INTERNATIONAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

 

In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-02, Consolidation (Topic 810) - Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis (“ASU 2015-02”), which provides guidance for reporting entities that are required to evaluate whether they should consolidate certain legal entities. In accordance with ASU 2015-02, all legal entities are subject to reevaluation under the revised consolidation model. ASU 2015-02 is effective for public business entities for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is still assessing the potential impact of ASU 2015-02 on its financial position and results of operations.

In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-15, Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern (“ASU 2014-15”), which requires management to evaluate, in connection with financial statement preparation for each annual and interim reporting period, whether there are conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date the financial statements are issued, and to provide related disclosures. ASU 2014-15 applies to all entities and is effective for annual periods ending after December 15, 2016, and interim periods thereafter, with early adoption permitted. The Company does not expect adoption of this guidance will have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) (“ASU 2014-09”), which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Accounting Standards Codification 605, Revenue Recognition. ASU 2014-09 is based on the principle that revenue is recognized to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. 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 retrospectively for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2017, reflecting the FASB’s decision on April 1, 2015 to defer the effective date by one year. Early adoption is not permitted. The Company is still assessing the potential impact of ASU 2014-09 on its financial position and results of operations.

Acquisitions

On June 23, 2015, the Company completed the purchase of certain assets of a company that provides short-term financing to small businesses throughout the United States through RPAs, which provide working capital for small businesses in exchange for a portion of the business’s future receivables at an agreed upon discount. The total consideration of $26.8 million was comprised of $17.7 million in cash at closing, a $3.0 million promissory note (included in “Accounts payable and accrued expenses” in the consolidated balance sheets) and estimated contingent consideration of $6.1 million based on future earn-out opportunities. The contingent purchase consideration was recorded at its estimated fair value at the date of acquisition based upon the Company’s assessment of the probable earnings attributable to the business as defined in the purchase agreement. To the extent operating results exceed the Company’s estimate, additional contingent consideration would be due, however the total consideration paid may not exceed $71 million.

The purchase price allocation is provisional, pending completion of the valuation of the acquired assets. The final valuation, which will be determined after further analysis and consultation with third party advisors, may change the allocation of the purchase price and could affect the fair values assigned to the assets.

This purchase was not material to the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The operating results of the purchased assets, which were not material, have been included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition.

Current and Delinquent Loans and Finance Receivables

The Company classifies its loans and finance receivables as either current or delinquent. Short-term loans are considered delinquent when payment of an amount due is not made as of the due date. If a line of credit account or installment loan customer misses one payment, that payment is considered delinquent and the balance of the loan is considered current. The Company does not accrue interest on the delinquent payment portion of the loan but does continue to accrue interest on the remaining portion of the loan. If a line of credit account or installment loan customer does not make two consecutive payments, the entire account or loan is classified as delinquent and on a non-accrual status. The Company allows for normal payment processing time before considering a payment or a loan delinquent but does not provide for any additional grace period.

The Company does not accrue interest on delinquent loans and does not resume accrual of interest on a delinquent loan unless it is returned to current status. In addition, delinquent loans generally may not be renewed, and if, during its attempt to collect on a delinquent loan, the Company allows additional time for payment through a payment plan or a promise to pay, it is still considered delinquent. Generally, all payments received are first applied against accrued but unpaid interest and fees and then against the principal balance of the loan.

Allowance and Liability for Estimated Losses on Loans and Finance Receivables

The Company monitors the performance of its loan and RPA portfolios and maintains either an allowance or liability for estimated losses on loans and finance receivables (including revenue, fees and interest) at a level estimated to be adequate to absorb credit losses inherent in the portfolio. The allowance for losses on the Company’s owned loans and finance receivables reduces the outstanding loans and finance receivable balance in the consolidated balance sheets. The liability for estimated losses related to loans guaranteed under its CSO programs is initially recorded at fair value and is included in “Accounts payable and accrued expenses” in the consolidated balance sheets.

In determining the allowance or liability for estimated losses on loans and finance receivables, the Company applies a documented systematic methodology. In calculating the allowance or liability for receivable losses, outstanding loans and finance receivables are divided into discrete groups of short-term loans, line of credit accounts, installment loans and RPAs and are analyzed as current or delinquent. Increases in either the allowance or the liability, net of charge-offs and recoveries, are recorded as a “Cost of revenue” in the consolidated statements of income.

The allowance or liability for short-term loans classified as current is based on historical loss rates adjusted for recent default trends for current loans. For delinquent short-term loans, the allowance or liability is based on a six-month rolling average of loss rates by stage of collection. For line of credit accounts and installment loan portfolios, the Company generally uses a migration analysis to estimate losses inherent in the portfolio. The allowance or liability calculation under the migration analysis is based on historical charge-off experience and the loss emergence period, which represents the average amount of time between the first occurrence of a loss event to the charge-off of a loan. The factors the Company considers to assess the adequacy of the allowance or liability include past due performance, historical behavior of monthly vintages, underwriting changes and recent trends in delinquency in the migration analysis.

The Company fully reserves and generally charges off loans once the loan or a portion of the loan has been classified as delinquent for 60 consecutive days. If a loan is deemed uncollectible before it is fully reserved, it is charged off at that point. Loans classified as

delinquent generally have an age of one to 59 days from the date any portion of the receivable became delinquent, as defined above. Recoveries on loans previously charged to the allowance are credited to the allowance when collected.

The components of Company-owned loans and finance receivables at June 30, 2015 and 2014 and December 31, 2014 were as follows (dollars in thousands):

Guarantees of Consumer Loans

In connection with its CSO programs, the Company guarantees consumer loan payment obligations to unrelated third-party lenders for short-term and installment loans and is required to purchase any defaulted loans it has guaranteed. The guarantee represents an obligation to purchase specific loans that go into default. As of June 30, 2015 and 2014 and December 31, 2014, the amount of consumer loans guaranteed by the Company was $31.5 million, $34.9 million and $36.3 million, respectively, representing amounts due under consumer loans originated by third-party lenders under the CSO programs. The estimated fair value of the liability for estimated losses on consumer loans guaranteed by the Company of $1.4 million, $1.6 million and $1.6 million, as of June 30, 2015 and 2014 and December 31, 2014, respectively, is included in “Accounts payable and accrued expenses” in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

Investment in Unconsolidated Subsidiary

The Company records an investment in the preferred stock of a privately-held developing consumer financial services entity under the cost method. The carrying value of the Company’s investment in this unconsolidated subsidiary was $6.7 million as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, and $6.0 million as of June 30, 2014, and was held in “Other assets” in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. The Company evaluates this investment for impairment if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of the investment below carrying value. Based on the Company’s impairment evaluation of this investment as of June 30, 2015, no impairment existed.

Long-term debt

$65.0 Million Revolving Credit Facility

On May 14, 2014, the Company and its domestic subsidiaries as guarantors entered into a credit agreement among the Company, the guarantors, Jefferies Finance, LLC as administrative agent and Jefferies Group, LLC as lender (the “Credit Agreement”). The Credit Agreement provided for an unsecured revolving credit facility of up to $75.0 million, including a multi-currency sub-facility that gives the Company the ability to borrow up to $25.0 million that may be specified in foreign currencies subject to the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement. On March 25, 2015, an amendment to the Credit Agreement reduced the Company’s unsecured revolving line of credit to $65.0 million and increased an additional senior secured indebtedness basket to the greater of $20.0 million or 2.75% of consolidated total assets (as defined in the credit agreement) (from $15.0 million or 2% of consolidated total assets). In addition, the amendment revised certain definitions and provisions relating to limitations on indebtedness, investments, dispositions, fundamental changes and burdensome agreements to allow certain of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries, which opt to become guarantors of its obligations under the credit agreement, to be treated as domestic subsidiaries for purposes of those provisions. Interest on the amounts borrowed will be charged, at the Company’s option, at either the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) for one week or one-, two-, three- or six-month periods, as selected by the Company, plus a margin varying from 2.50% to 3.75% or at the agent’s base rate plus a margin varying from 1.50% to 2.75%. The margin for the borrowings under the Credit Agreement is dependent on the Company’s cash flow leverage ratios. The Company is also required to pay a fee on the unused portion of the line of credit ranging from 0.25% to 0.50% (0.375% as of June 30, 2015) based on the Company’s cash flow leverage ratios. The Credit Agreement will mature on June 30, 2017. There were no outstanding borrowings under the Credit Agreement as of June 30, 2015 and 2014.

ENOVA INTERNATIONAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

 

The Credit Agreement also includes a sub-limit of up to $20.0 million for standby or commercial letters of credit that is guaranteed by the Company’s domestic subsidiaries. In the event that an amount is paid by the issuing bank under a letter of credit, it will be due and payable by the Company on demand. Pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement, the Company agrees to pay fees equal to the LIBOR margin per annum on the undrawn amount of each outstanding standby letter of credit plus a one-time commercial letter of credit fee of 0.20% of the face amount of each commercial letter of credit plus 0.25% per annum on the average daily amount of the total letter of credit exposure. The Company had letters of credit of $6.6 million under its Credit Agreement as of June 30, 2015, and no outstanding letters of credit as of June 30, 2014.

In connection with the issuance of the Credit Agreement, the Company incurred debt issuance costs of approximately $1.6 million, which primarily consisted of underwriting fees and legal expenses. The unamortized balance of these costs as of June 30, 2015 is included in “Other assets” in the consolidated balance sheets. These costs are being amortized to interest expense over a period of 37 months, the term of the Credit Agreement.

$500.0 Million 9.75% Senior Unsecured Notes

On May 30, 2014, the Company issued and sold $500.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 9.75% Senior Notes due 2021 (the “Senior Notes”). The Senior Notes bear interest at a rate of 9.75% annually on the principal amount payable semi-annually in arrears on June 1 and December 1 of each year, beginning on December 1, 2014. The Senior Notes were sold at a discount of the principal amount to yield 10.0% to maturity. The Senior Notes will mature on June 1, 2021. The Senior Notes are unsecured debt obligations of the Company, and are unconditionally guaranteed by all of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries. The Senior Notes were sold to qualified institutional buyers in accordance with Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, and outside the United States pursuant to Regulation S under the Securities Act. As required by a registration rights agreement that the Company entered into with the initial purchaser when the Senior Notes were issued, the Company completed an exchange offer in April 2015. All of the unregistered Senior Notes have been exchanged for identical new notes registered under the Securities Act.

The Senior Notes are governed by an indenture (the “Senior Notes Indenture”), dated May 30, 2014, between the Company, the Company’s domestic subsidiaries, as guarantors, and the trustee. The Senior Notes Indenture contains certain covenants that, among other things, limit the Company’s, and certain of its subsidiaries, ability to incur additional debt, acquire or create new subsidiaries, create liens, engage in certain transactions with affiliates and consolidate or merge with or into other companies. The Senior Notes Indenture provides for customary events of default, including non-payment and failure to comply with covenants or other agreements in the Senior Notes Indenture.

The Senior Notes are redeemable at the Company’s option, in whole or in part, (i) at any time prior to June 1, 2017 at 100% of the aggregate principal amount of Senior Notes redeemed plus the applicable “make whole” redemption price specified in the Senior Notes Indenture, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the redemption date and (ii) at any time on or after June 1, 2017 at a premium specified in the Senior Notes Indenture that will decrease over time, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the redemption date. In addition, prior to June 1, 2017, at its option, the Company may redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the Senior Notes at a redemption price equal to 109.75% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the redemption date, with the proceeds of certain equity offerings as described in the Senior Notes Indenture. If a change of control occurs, as that term is defined in the Senior Notes Indenture, the holders of the Senior Notes will have the right, subject to certain conditions, to require the Company to repurchase their Senior Notes at a purchase price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, as of the date of repurchase. The Spin-off did not constitute a change of control under the Senior Notes Indenture. See Note 1 for additional information on the Spin-off.

The Company used all of the net proceeds of the Senior Notes offering, or $479.0 million, to repay all of its intercompany indebtedness due to Cash America, which was $361.4 million as of May 30, 2014, and the remaining net proceeds were used to pay a significant portion of $122.4 million in cash dividends paid to Cash America, of which $120.7 million was paid on May 30, 2014 and $1.7 million was paid on June 30, 2014.

As of June 30, 2015 and 2014, the carrying amount of the Senior Notes was $494.5 million and $493.9 million, respectively, which included an unamortized discount of $5.5 million and $6.1 million, respectively. The discount is being amortized to interest expense over a period of seven years, through the maturity date of June 1, 2021. The total interest expense recognized was $24.7 million and $4.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, of which $0.3 million and $0.1 million, respectively, represented the non-cash amortization of the discount. In connection with the issuance of the Senior Notes, the Company incurred approximately $14.7 million for issuance costs, which primarily consisted of underwriting fees, legal and other professional expenses. These costs are being amortized to interest expense over seven years and are included in “Other assets” in the consolidated balance sheets.

Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by giving effect to the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common shares were exercised and converted into common shares during the period. Restricted stock units issued under the Company’s stock-based employee compensation plans are included in diluted shares upon the granting of the awards even though the vesting of shares will occur over time.

The following table sets forth the reconciliation of numerators and denominators of basic and diluted earnings per share computations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 (in thousands, except per share amounts):

On March 8, 2013, Flemming Kristensen, on behalf of himself and others similarly situated, filed a purported class action lawsuit in the U.S. District Court of Nevada against the Company and other unaffiliated lenders and lead providers. The lawsuit alleges that the lead provider defendants sent unauthorized text messages to consumers on behalf of the Company and the other lender defendants in violation of the Telephone Consumer Protection Act. The complaint seeks class certification, statutory damages, an injunction against “wireless spam activities,” and attorneys’ fees and costs. The Company filed an answer to the complaint denying all liability. On March 26, 2014, the Court granted class certification. On October 24, 2014, the Company filed a motion for summary judgment, and the court has not yet ruled on this motion. On January 27, 2015, the plaintiff filed a motion for summary judgment against all of the defendants. On July 20, 2015, the court granted Enova’s motion, denied Plaintiff’s motion and entered judgment in favor of the Company. Plaintiff may seek reconsideration of or appeal the judgment. Neither the likelihood of an unfavorable ruling nor the ultimate liability, if any, with respect to this matter can be determined at this time, and the Company is currently unable to estimate a range of reasonably possible losses, as defined by ASC 450-20-20, Contingencies–Loss Contingencies–Glossary, for this litigation. The Company believes that the plaintiff’s claims in the complaint are without merit and intends to vigorously defend this lawsuit.

On January 12, 2015, the California Department of Business Oversight (the “Department”) issued an Order (the “Order”) to the Company’s subsidiary, CNU of California, LLC (“CNU”), alleging that CNU violated the California Deferred Deposit Transaction Law by stating in its deferred deposit loan contracts and other agreements that CNU would charge customers amounts not allowed under California law, by electronically debiting customer accounts for more than the original agreed upon amount without additional written authorization from customers, by using the wrong legal name in certain agreements and by advertising via the Company’s website without disclosing that CNU is licensed by the Department.  The Order requires CNU to pay an administrative penalty of $10,000, to forfeit all charges and fees for every deferred deposit transaction made in violation of law, and to desist and refrain from violating those provisions of California law.  On February 20, 2015, CNU requested a hearing to challenge the Order.  A hearing date of August 31, 2015 has been set, although CNU has filed a motion to continue the hearing date.  It is too early in this matter to determine either the likelihood of an unfavorable ruling or the ultimate liability, if any, with respect to this matter, and therefore the Company is currently unable to estimate a range of reasonably possible losses, as defined by ASC 450-20-20, for this litigation. The Company believes that the Department’s claims in the Order are without merit and intends to vigorously challenge the Order.

The Company is also a defendant in certain routine litigation matters encountered in the ordinary course of its business. Certain of these matters may be covered to an extent by insurance. In the opinion of management, the resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or liquidity.

Headquarters Relocation

The Company provided notice in the second quarter of 2014 to the landlord at 200 W. Jackson Boulevard in Chicago, Illinois that it was accelerating the lease expiration date for approximately 86,000 rentable square feet effective June 30, 2015. As a result, the Company recognized an expense of $1.4 million in the year ended December 31, 2014 related to a lease termination penalty, which was included as “General and administrative expense” in the consolidated statement of income. In July 2014, the Company entered into a lease agreement for its current headquarters office space at 175 W. Jackson Boulevard in Chicago as part of its plans to relocate from its former headquarters at 200 W. Jackson. In the second quarter of 2015, the Company ceased using the 200 W. Jackson location and, as a result, recognized additional expense of $3.5 million, which was included as “General and administrative expense” and consisted of a lease exit liability of $2.8 million for the remaining lease payments, net of estimated sublease income of $1.7 million, and $0.7 million for the removal of property and restoration costs related to the 200 W. Jackson lease. The Company does not expect to incur further material costs related to the relocations.

The following table is a summary of the exit and disposal activity and liability balances as a result of the headquarters relocation (in thousands):

Derivative Instruments

The Company periodically uses derivative instruments to manage risk from changes in market conditions that may affect the Company’s financial performance. The Company primarily uses derivative instruments to manage its primary market risks, which are interest rate risk and foreign currency exchange rate risk.

The Company currently uses forward currency exchange contracts to minimize the effects of foreign currency risk in the United Kingdom and, prior to December 31, 2014, used forward currency exchange contracts to minimize the effects of foreign currency risk in Australia. The forward currency exchange contracts are non-designated derivatives. Any gain or loss resulting from these contracts is recorded as income or loss and is included in “Foreign currency transaction loss” in the Company’s consolidated statements of income. The Company currently does not manage its exposure to risk from foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations through the use of forward currency exchange contracts in Australia, Canada, Brazil or China.

The Company’s derivative instruments are presented in its financial statements on a net basis. The following table presents information related to the Company’s derivative instruments as of June 30, 2015 and 2014 and December 31, 2014 (dollars in thousands):

Related Party Transactions

Prior to the Spin-off, Cash America provided certain corporate service functions, such as executive oversight, insurance and risk management, government relations, internal audit, treasury, licensing, and to a limited extent finance, accounting, tax, legal, human resources, compensation and benefits, compliance and support for certain information systems related to financial reporting. The costs of such services were allocated to the Company based on the Company’s share of Cash America’s corporate services expenses incurred for the consolidated entity. Actual corporate services costs that may have been incurred if the Company had been a stand-alone company would depend on a number of factors, including the chosen organizational structure, what functions were outsourced or performed by employees, and strategic decisions made in areas such as information technology and infrastructure. The Company believes that the expenses in these financial statements were reported on a basis that fairly represents the utilization of the services provided. These financial statements do not necessarily reflect the financial position or results of operations that would have existed if the Company had been operated as a stand-alone entity during the periods covered and may not be indicative of future results of operations and financial position. General and administrative expenses include allocations by Cash America of $5.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014.

Since the Spin-off, Cash America has been charging the Company a transition services fee related to utilization of financial reporting systems and accounts payable processing that is included in general and administrative expenses. The Company recorded $0.3 million in expense for these services for the six months ended June 30, 2015. The Company expects to transition to its own financial reporting system before the end of 2015.

Prior to the Spin-off, the Company paid Cash America compensation for loans made to or arranged for customers who were referred from Cash America. The Company paid $0.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 pursuant to this arrangement, but discontinued this arrangement following the Spin-off. In addition, the Company administered the consumer loan underwriting model utilized by Cash America’s Retail Services Division in exchange for the reimbursement of the Company’s direct third-party costs incurred in providing the service. The Company received $0.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 pursuant to this arrangement. The Company and Cash America entered into a new agreement in conjunction with the Spin-off for the Company to

continue providing this service. The Company received $0.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015 pursuant to this new agreement.

Prior to the issuance of the Senior Notes on May 30, 2014, all payments the Company owed Cash America, offset by any credits or fees Cash America owed the Company in connection with the transactions above, were made through the Affiliate Line of Credit agreement. See Note 5 for further discussion of this agreement. Since May 30, 2014, amounts due from or due to Cash America have been settled a month in arrears. The balance due from Cash America of $0.1 million as of June 30, 2015 is included in “Other receivables and prepaid expenses” in the consolidated balance sheets, the balance due to Cash America of $11.5 million as of June 30, 2014 is included in “Related party payables, net” in the consolidated balance sheets and the balance due to Cash America of $0.4 million as of December 31, 2014 is included in “Accounts payable and accrued expenses” in the consolidated balance sheets.

Fair Value Measurements

Recurring Fair Value Measurements

In accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, certain of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which are carried at fair value, are classified in one of the following three categories:

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.

The Company’s financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2015 and 2014 and December 31, 2014 are as follows (dollars in thousands):

The non-qualified savings plan assets are included in “Other receivables and prepaid expenses” in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets and have an offsetting liability of equal amount, which is included in “Accounts payable and accrued expenses” in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

The Company measures the fair value of its forward currency exchange contracts under Level 2 inputs as defined by ASC 820. For these forward currency exchange contracts, current market rates are used to determine fair value. The significant inputs used in these models are derived from observable market rates. The fair value of the Company’s non-qualified savings plan assets are measured under a Level 1 input. These assets are publicly traded equity securities for which market prices are readily observable. During the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, there were no transfers of assets in or out of Level 1 fair value measurements. Prior to June 2014, the Company participated in Cash America’s derivative and hedging programs, which are coordinated through a centralized treasury function; therefore, the assets and liabilities related to derivative instruments were not recorded in the Company’s financial

statements; however, the gains and losses associated with Cash America’s foreign currency forward contracts that relate to the Company’s business are included as “Foreign currency transaction loss” in the consolidated statements of income.

The Company determined the fair value of the liability for the contingent consideration based on a probability-weighted discounted cash flow analysis. This analysis reflects the contractual terms of the purchase agreement and utilizes assumptions with regard to future earnings, probabilities of achieving such future earnings, the timing of expected payments and a discount rate. Significant increases with respect to assumptions as to future earnings and probabilities of achieving such future earnings would result in a higher fair value measurement while an increase in the discount rate would result in a lower fair value measurement. The fair value measurement is based on significant inputs not observable in the market and thus represents a Level 3 measurement as defined in the fair value hierarchy.

The changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration, which is a Level 3 liability measured at fair value on a recurring basis, are summarized in the table below for the six months ended June 30, 2015 (dollars in thousands):

ENOVA INTERNATIONAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

 

(3)

See Note 3 for additional information related to the investment in unconsolidated subsidiary.

Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash bear interest at market rates and have original maturities of less than 90 days.

Short-term loans, line of credit accounts, installment loans and RPAs are carried in the consolidated balance sheet net of the allowance for estimated losses, which is calculated by applying historical loss rates combined with recent default trends to the gross receivable balance. The unobservable inputs used to calculate the fair value of these receivables include historical loss rates, recent default trends and estimated remaining loan or RPA term; therefore, the carrying value approximates the fair value. Short-term loans and line of credit accounts have relatively short maturity periods that are generally 12 months or less. The fair value of installment loans and RPAs is estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis, which considers interest rates and discounts offered for receivables with similar terms to customers with similar credit quality. The carrying values of the Company’s installment loans and RPAs approximate the fair value of these loans and finance receivables. Unsecured installment loans typically have terms between two and 60 months.

In connection with its CSO programs, the Company guarantees consumer loan payment obligations to unrelated third-party lenders for short-term and installment loans the Company arranges for consumers on the third-party lenders’ behalf and is required to purchase any defaulted loans it has guaranteed. The estimated fair value of the liability for estimated losses on consumer loans guaranteed by the Company was $1.4 million, $1.6 million and $1.6 million as of June 30, 2015 and 2014 and December 31, 2014, respectively. The Company measures the fair value of its liability for third-party lender-owned consumer loans under Level 3 inputs. The fair value of these liabilities is calculated by applying historical loss rates combined with recent default trends to the gross consumer loan balance. The unobservable inputs used to calculate the fair value of these loans include historical loss rates, recent default trends and estimated remaining loan terms; therefore, the carrying value of these liabilities approximates the fair value.

The Company measures the fair value of its long-term debt using Level 2 inputs. The fair value of the Company’s long term debt is estimated based on quoted prices in markets that are not active. As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Company’s Senior Notes had a lower fair market value than the carrying value based on the price of the last trade of the Senior Notes. As of June 30, 2014 the Company’s Senior Notes had a higher fair market value than the carrying value due to the difference in yield when compared to similar types of credit.

ITEM 2.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion of financial condition, results of operations, liquidity and capital resources and certain factors that may affect future results, including economic and industry-wide factors, of Enova International, Inc. and its subsidiaries should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included under Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as well as with Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014. This Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contains forward-looking statements. The matters discussed in these forward-looking statements are subject to risk, uncertainties, and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those made, projected or implied in the forward-looking statements. Please see “Risk Factors” and “Cautionary Statement Concerning Forward-Looking Statements” for a discussion of the uncertainties, risks and assumptions associated with these statements.

SEPARATION FROM CASH AMERICA

Prior to November 13, 2014, we were a wholly-owned subsidiary of Cash America International, Inc., or Cash America. On April 10, 2014, the Board of Directors of Cash America authorized management to review potential strategic alternatives, including a tax-free spin-off, for our separation. After evaluating alternatives for Enova, Cash America’s management recommended that Cash America’s Board of Directors pursue a tax-free spin-off for the separation. On October 22, 2014, after receiving a private letter ruling from the Internal Revenue Service, an opinion from Cash America’s tax counsel and a solvency opinion from an independent financial advisor, Cash America’s Board of Directors approved the spin-off. The distribution occurred at 12:01 am ET on November 13, 2014 (the “Spin-off”). Cash America’s shareholders received 0.915 shares of our stock for every one share of Cash America common stock held at the close of business November 3, 2014, which was the record date for the distribution. Following the Spin-off, we became an independent, publicly traded company, and our shares of common stock are listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “ENVA.”

Since 2011, we have owned all of the assets and incurred all of the liabilities related to Cash America’s e-commerce business, with some limited exceptions, in which case such assets were transferred to us and such liabilities were assumed by us pursuant to a Separation and Distribution Agreement upon completion of the Spin-off. On the Spin-off date, we entered into several other agreements with Cash America that govern the relationship between us and Cash America after completion of the Spin-off and provide for the allocation between us and Cash America of various assets, liabilities, rights and obligations (including insurance and tax-related assets and liabilities). Our guarantees of Cash America’s long-term indebtedness were also released in connection with the Spin-off. These agreements also include arrangements with respect to transitional services to be provided by Cash America to us and vice versa.

BUSINESS OVERVIEW

We are a leading technology and analytics company focused on providing online financial services. In 2014, we extended approximately $2.2 billion in credit to borrowers. As of June 30, 2015, we offered or arranged loans to customers in 35 states in the United States and in the United Kingdom, Australia, Canada, Brazil and China. We also offered short-term financing to small businesses in all 50 states and Washington D.C. in the United States. We use our proprietary technology, analytics and customer service capabilities to quickly evaluate, underwrite and fund financings, allowing us to offer consumers and small businesses credit when and how they want it. Our customers include the large and growing number of consumers who and small businesses which have bank accounts but use alternative financial services because of their limited access to more traditional consumer credit from banks, credit card companies and other lenders. We were an early entrant into online lending, launching our online business in 2004, and through June 30, 2015, we have completed over 33.6 million customer transactions and collected approximately nine terabytes of currently accessible customer behavior data since launch, allowing us to better analyze and underwrite our specific customer base. We have significantly diversified our business over the past several years having expanded the markets we serve and the financing products we offer. These financing products include short-term loans, line of credit accounts, installment loans and receivables purchase agreements (“RPAs”).

We believe our customers highly value our services as an important component of their personal finances because our products are convenient, quick and often less expensive than other available alternatives. We attribute the success of our business to our advanced and innovative technology systems, the proprietary analytical models we use to predict loans and finance receivables performance, our sophisticated customer acquisition programs, our dedication to customer service and our talented employees.

We have developed proprietary underwriting systems based on data we have collected over our ten years of experience. These systems employ advanced risk analytics to decide whether to approve financing transactions, to structure the amount and terms of the financings we offer pursuant to jurisdiction specific regulations and to provide customers with their funds quickly and efficiently. Our

23


 

systems closely monitor collection and portfolio performance data that we use to continually refine the analytical models and statistical measures used in making our credit, purchase, marketing and collection decisions.

Our flexible and scalable technology platform allows us to process and complete customers’ transactions quickly and efficiently. In 2014, we processed approximately 4.5 million transactions, and we continue to grow our loans and finance receivables portfolio and increase the number of customers we serve through both desktop and mobile platforms. Our highly customizable technology platform allows us to efficiently develop and deploy new products to adapt to evolving regulatory requirements and consumer preference, and to enter new markets quickly. In 2012, we launched a new product in the United States designed to serve near-prime customers, and in April 2014 we introduced a similar product in the United Kingdom. In June 2014 and July 2014, we launched pilot programs in Brazil and China, respectively, where we have begun arranging financing for borrowers through a third party lender in each country. In addition, in July 2014, we introduced a pilot program for a new line of credit product in the United States to serve the needs of small businesses. In June 2015 we further expanded our product offering by acquiring certain assets of a company that provides short-term financing to small businesses by offering RPAs (see Note 2 in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements). These products are intended to allow us to further diversify our product offerings, customer base and geographic scope. In the six-month period ended June 30, 2015 we derived 74.5% of our total revenue from the United States and 25.5% of our total revenue internationally, with 93.6% of international revenue (representing 23.9% of our total revenue) generated in the United Kingdom. See “—Recent Regulatory Developments—Financial Conduct Authority” below for a discussion of the changes in our U.K. operations and our expectations for our U.K. business going forward.

We have been able to consistently acquire new customers and successfully generate repeat business from returning customers when they need financing. We believe our customers are loyal to us because they are satisfied with our products and services. We acquire new customers from a variety of sources, including visits to our own websites, mobile sites or applications, and through direct marketing, affiliate marketing, lead providers and relationships with other lenders. We believe that the online convenience of our products and our availability 24/7 to accept financing applications with quick results are important to our customers.

Once a potential new customer submits an application, we quickly provide a credit or purchase decision. If a financing is approved we typically fund the financing the next business day or, in some cases, the same day. During the entire process, from application through payment, we provide access to our in-house and well-trained customer service team. All of our operations, from customer acquisition through collections, are structured to build customer satisfaction and loyalty, in the event that a customer has a need for our products in the future. We have developed a series of sophisticated proprietary scoring models to support our various financing products. We believe that these models are an integral component of our operations and they allow us to complete a high volume of customer transactions while actively managing risk and the related credit quality of our loan and finance receivable portfolios. We believe our successful application of these technology innovations differentiates our capabilities relative to competitive platforms as evidenced by our history of strong growth and stable credit quality.

OUR PRODUCTS

Our online financing products provide customers with a deposit of funds to their bank account or onto a debit card in exchange for a commitment to repay the amount deposited plus fees, interest and/or revenue on the receivables purchased. We originate, arrange, guarantee or purchase short-term consumer loans, line of credit accounts, installment loans and RPAs . We have only one reportable segment that includes all of our online financial services.

·

Short-term consumer loans. Short-term loans are unsecured loans written by us or by a third-party lender through our credit services organization and credit access business programs, which we refer to as our CSO programs, that we arrange and guarantee. As of June 30, 2015, we offered or arranged short-term consumer loans in 23 states in the United States, the United Kingdom and Canada. Short-term loans generally have terms of seven to 90 days, with proceeds promptly deposited in the customer’s bank account or onto a debit card in exchange for a pre-authorized debit from their account. Due to the credit risk and high transaction costs of serving our customer segment, the fees we charge are generally considered to be higher than the fees charged to consumers with superior credit histories by banks and similar lenders who are typically unwilling to make unsecured loans to alternative credit consumers. Our short-term consumer loans contributed approximately 31.8% of our total revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 33.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2014.

 

Through our CSO programs, we provide services related to third-party lenders’ short-term consumer loan products by acting as a credit services organization or credit access business on behalf of consumers in accordance with applicable state laws. Services offered under our CSO programs include credit-related services such as arranging loans with independent third-party lenders and assisting in the preparation of loan applications and loan documents, or CSO loans. Under our CSO programs, we guarantee consumer loan payment obligations to the third party lender in the event the customer defaults on the loan. When a consumer executes an agreement with us under our CSO programs, we agree, for a fee payable to us by the consumer, to provide certain services to the consumer, one of which is to guarantee the consumer’s obligation to repay the loan received by the consumer from the third-party lender if the consumer fails to do so. For CSO loans, each lender is responsible for providing the criteria by which the consumer’s application is underwritten and, if approved, determining the amount of the consumer loan. We in turn are responsible for assessing whether or not we will guarantee such loan. The guarantee represents an obligation to

24


 

purchase specific loans, which generally have terms of less than 90 days, if they go into default. As of June 30, 2015 and 2014, the outstanding amount of active consumer loans originated by third-party lenders under the CSO programs was $31.5 million and $34.9 million, respectively, which were guaranteed by us.

·

Line of credit accounts. Line of credit accounts consist of draws made through our unsecured line of credit products. We offer line of credit accounts in seven states in the United States which allow customers to draw on the line of credit in increments of their choosing up to their credit limit. Customers may pay off their account balance in full at any time or make required minimum payments in accordance with their terms of the line of credit account. As long as the customer’s account is in good standing and has credit available, customers may continue to borrow on their line of credit. As a result of regulatory changes in 2014, we discontinued offering line of credit accounts to new customers in the United Kingdom in late 2014 and effective January 1, 2015, we discontinued draws on existing accounts in the United Kingdom. Our line of credit accounts contributed approximately 31.0% of our total revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 36.1% for the six months ended June 30, 2014.

·

Installment loans. Installment loans are longer-term multi-payment loans that generally require the pay-down of portions of the outstanding principal balance in multiple installments. We offer, or arrange through our CSO Programs, multi-payment unsecured installment loan products in 16 states in the United States and in the United Kingdom and Australia. Generally, terms for our installment loan products are between two and 60 months. These loans generally have higher principal amounts than short-term loans and are repaid in installments over the term of the loan. The loan may be repaid early at any time with no prepayment charges. Our installment loans contributed approximately 36.9% of our total revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 30.1% for the six months ended June 30, 2014.

·

Receivables purchase agreements. RPAs provide working capital for small businesses in exchange for a portion of the business’s future receivables at an agreed upon discount. Whereas lending is a commitment to repay principal and interest, future receivables purchasing is the advance purchase of an agreed upon amount of a business's future receivables at a discount. The small business customer repays this advance, usually on a daily basis, through ACH debits or by splitting credit card receipts.

·

Pilot programs. In June 2014 and July 2014, we launched pilot programs in Brazil and China, respectively, where we have begun arranging loans for borrowers through a third party lender in each country as described below. In addition, in July 2014, we also introduced a pilot program for a new line of credit product to serve the needs of small businesses, which was offered in 19 states in the United States at June 30, 2015 and is included under “line of credit accounts.”

We currently provide our services in the following countries:

·

United States. We began our online business in the United States in May 2004. As of June 30, 2015, we provided services in all 50 states and Washington D.C. We market our loan products under the names CashNetUSA at www.cashnetusa.com, NetCredit at www.netcredit.com and Headway Capital at www.headwaycapital.com. The United States represented 74.5% of our total revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 53.1% of our total revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2014.

·

United Kingdom. We provide services in the United Kingdom under the names QuickQuid at www.quickquid.co.uk, Pounds to Pocket at www.poundstopocket.co.uk and OnStride Financial at www.onstride.co.uk. We began our QuickQuid short-term consumer loan business in July 2007, our Pounds to Pocket installment loan business in September 2010, and our OnStride near-prime installment loan business in April 2014. We offered a line of credit product from March 2013 to December 2014 under the brand name QuickQuid FlexCredit. The United Kingdom represented 23.9% of our total revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 45.7% of our total revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2014. Our results from operations for the six-month period ended June 30, 2014 do not include the full impact of changes in our U.K. operations resulting from regulatory and legislative changes. See “—Recent Regulatory Developments—Financial Conduct Authority” below for a discussion about the impact on our U.K. business.

·

Australia. We provide services under the name DollarsDirect at www.dollarsdirect.com.au in Australia, and we began providing services there in May 2009. Australia represented 0.8% of our total revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 0.5% of our total revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2014.

·

Canada. We began providing services in Canada in October 2009. As of June 30, 2015, we provide services in the provinces of Ontario, British Columbia, Alberta and Saskatchewan under the name DollarsDirect at www.dollarsdirect.ca. Canada represented 0.7% of our total revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 0.7% of our total revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2014.

·

Brazil. On June 30, 2014, we launched a pilot program in Brazil where we arrange loans for a third party lender in accordance with applicable law under the name Simplic at www.simplic.com.br. We also guarantee the payment of these loans by agreeing to purchase the loans from the third-party lender under certain circumstances. The loans may be repaid in multiple payments, depending on the loan terms selected by the customer, with loan durations ranging from three to 12 months. We will receive

25


 

fees and interest on these loans in connection with the services we provide. Our future plans for Brazil will largely depend on our results from this pilot program.

·

China. We launched a pilot program in China in July 2014 where we have entered into a joint venture with a third party lender where the third party lender makes loans in accordance with applicable laws under the name YouXinYi at www.youxinyi.cn. Our future plans for China will largely depend on our results from this pilot program.

RECENT REGULATORY DEVELOPMENTS

Consumer Financial Protection Bureau

On March 26, 2015, the CFPB published its outline of proposals for regulating high-cost short-term loans, installment loans, open ended lines of credit, and other loans (the “CFPB Outline”). The CFPB published the CFPB Outline in preparation for convening a Small Business Review Panel to determine whether its proposal could have a significant economic impact on small businesses and not-for-profits.  The CFPB Outline does not include proposed or final rules, and any future rules could be significantly different from those in the CFPB Outline. The effective date for the implementation of final rules, while not yet defined by the CFPB, is not expected by the industry until early 2017 or later. As a result, it is not currently possible to predict the ultimate scope, extent, nature, timing or effect of any rules eventually adopted and made effective by the CFPB.

Financial Conduct Authority

During the six months ended June 30, 2015 and June 30, 2014, our U.K. operations generated 23.9% and 45.7%, respectively, of our consolidated total revenue. Regulatory changes in the United Kingdom during 2014 significantly affected previous results and will continue to affect future results from our U.K. operations as described below.

In the United Kingdom, supervision of consumer credit was transferred on April 1, 2014 to the Financial Conduct Authority, or the FCA, and pursuant to new legislation, the FCA is authorized to adopt prescriptive rules and regulations. On February 28, 2014, the Consumer Credit Sourcebook was issued as part of the FCA Handbook and incorporates prescriptive regulations for lenders such as us, including mandatory affordability assessments on borrowers, limiting the number of rollovers to two, restricting how lenders can advertise, banning advertisements the FCA deems misleading, and introducing a limit of two unsuccessful attempts on the use of continuous payment authority (which provides a creditor the ability to directly debit a customer’s account for payment when authorized by the customer to do so) to pay off a loan. As required by the 2013 amendment to the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000, the FCA implemented a cap on the total cost of high-cost short-term credit effective January 2, 2015. The final rule reflects a maximum rate of 0.8% of principal per day, and limits the total fees, interest (including post-default interest) and charges (including late fees which are capped at £15) to an aggregate amount not to exceed 100% of the principal amount loaned. The rule required us to make changes to all of our high-cost short-term products in the United Kingdom. As a result of the final rule, we discontinued offering line of credit accounts to new customers in the United Kingdom in late 2014 and effective January 1, 2015, we discontinued draws on existing accounts in the United Kingdom. Once U.K. customers have paid off their outstanding line of credit balance, they may be eligible for either a short-term or installment loan. We also expect to introduce additional installment loan products in late 2015 or early 2016. We ultimately expect revenue from these new and existing products to offset the lost revenue from our discontinued line of credit offerings in the United Kingdom. On February 24, 2015, the FCA issued a consultation paper that, among other things, proposes to require that providers of high-cost short-term credit include a risk warning in all financial promotions and to amend the FCA rules to allow firms to introduce continuous payment authority to collect repayments where a customer is in arrears or default and the lender is exercising forbearance. Comments on the proposal were due to the FCA by May 6, 2015.

We are subject to ongoing examination and review by the FCA. We are in frequent communication with the FCA in an effort to demonstrate that we satisfy the expectations of the FCA, and we have made significant modifications to many of our business practices to address the FCA’s requirements. These modifications included adjustments to our affordability assessment practices and underwriting standards that govern who will qualify for a loan from us, reductions in certain maximum loan amounts, alterations to advertising practices and adjustments to collections processes (including our practices related to continuous payment authority) and debt forbearance processes (or our practices regarding customers who have indicated they are experiencing financial difficulty). In addition, we previously did not have a physical presence in the United Kingdom as business functions were performed remotely from our facilities in the United States. In order to alleviate concerns in relation to our ability to presently demonstrate to the FCA that we are capable of being effectively supervised, we established an office in 2014 in London for the management of our U.K. business.

As previously reported, the FCA appointed an independent auditor, referred to as a skilled person under section 166 of the FSMA, to undertake a review of certain of our practices, as well as our ability to be effectively supervised. The first phase of that review

26


 

identified certain of our former business practices that were deemed by the FCA to have caused some consumer detriment during the limited time frame prior to implementation of our enhanced affordability assessment. As a result of the FCA’s concerns, it is likely that we will agree to undertake remedial action to address that consumer detriment, but we do not expect the redress to have a material adverse effect on our business. The remainder of the review is nearly complete, and the auditor has not identified any other activities that have caused consumer detriment, are not in compliance with the FCA’s requirements or that would be likely to prevent the FCA's effective supervision of us.

In connection with implementing the changes described above to our U.K. business,  we experienced a significant year-over-year decrease in our U.K. loan volume, U.K. loan balances and U.K. revenue during the six-month period ended June 30, 2015 as a result of adapting our U.K. business practices in response to the requirements of the FCA. We expect these year-over-year trends to moderate but will continue for the remainder of 2015. The implementation of stricter affordability assessments and underwriting standards resulted in a decrease in the number of consumer loans written, the average consumer loan amount and the total amount of consumer loans written to new and returning customers. Additionally, we have experienced and will continue to experience an increase in compliance- and administrative-related costs for the United Kingdom, but the overall expenses of our U.K. business (including our cost of revenue) decreased as our U.K. business contracted. The ultimate impact of the changes we have made to our U.K. operations will be dependent on a number of factors (some of which may be unforeseen), including the effectiveness of our execution of the operational changes, the impact the FCA’s requirements may have on our competitors that could result in a potential increase in our market share, and consumer reaction to the changes occurring to our services, among other things. The decline in revenue and loan balances in the United Kingdom has been offset to an extent by improved performance of our U.K. consumer loan portfolio as a result of stricter affordability assessments and underwriting standards being implemented, which has resulted in lower consumer loan loss rates, and by continued strong demand for the online loan products we offer and receivables purchased in the United States and other markets. We are continuing to assess the impact of the changes we have made to our U.K. operations and what additional changes we may elect to implement and what effect such changes may have on our business, but our operating results will continue to be negatively impacted by the changes we made in 2014.

The results for the six-month period ended June 30, 2014 do not include the full impact of the changes described above. The results for that period are not indicative of our future results of operations and cash flows from our operations in the United Kingdom.

Military Lending Act

On July 22, 2015, the Department of Defense published its final rule amending the Military Lending Act’s (“MLA’s”) implementing regulation. The new rule expands the scope of the credit products covered by the MLA. The rules under the MLA restrict us from offering consumer loan products to covered borrowers at military annual percentage rate, which is defined by the rules, of more than 36%, and contain various disclosure requirements, limitations on renewals and refinancing, as well as restrictions on the use of prepayment penalties, arbitration provisions and certain waivers of rights. The rule provides that a lender is subject to fines and other penalties if it extends credit to a covered borrower on prohibited terms. The new rule provides a safe harbor for a lender if it verifies an applicant’s status as a covered borrower before extending credit by checking the Department of Defense’s database or a database of a national credit reporting agency that provides military status information. The new rule is scheduled to become effective on October 3, 2016. Although compliance with the new rule could be complex and increase compliance costs, even if the new rule restricts the Company from making any of its credit products available to members of the military, their spouses or their dependents, the Company does not expect the new rule to have a material adverse impact on our financial condition or operating results once it goes into effect. See “Part II. Item 1A. Risk Factors—The consumer lending industry continues to be targeted by new laws or regulations in many jurisdictions that could restrict the short-term consumer lending products and services we offer, impose additional compliance costs on us, render our current operations unprofitable or even prohibit our current operations” for additional information regarding the expanded rules under the MLA.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Except as described below, there have been no changes in critical accounting policies as described in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired in each business combination. In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification, or ASC, 350, Goodwill, we test goodwill and intangible assets with an indefinite life for potential impairment annually as of June 30 and between annual tests if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value below its carrying amount.

We use the income approach to complete our annual goodwill assessment. The income approach uses future cash flows and estimated terminal values for us that are discounted using a market participant perspective to determine the fair value, which is then compared to

27


 

the carrying value to determine if there is impairment. The income approach includes assumptions about revenue growth rates, operating margins and terminal growth rates discounted by an estimated weighted-average cost of capital derived from other publicly-traded companies that are similar but not identical from an operational and economic standpoint. We completed our annual assessment of goodwill as of June 30, 2015 and determined that the fair value of our goodwill exceeded carrying value, and, as a result, no impairment existed at that date. A 10% decrease in the estimated fair value for the June 2015 assessment would not have resulted in a goodwill impairment. Although no goodwill impairment was noted, there can be no assurances that future goodwill impairments will not occur.

Consolidated net income decreased $19.7 million, or 64.5%, to $10.9 million in the current quarter compared to $30.6 million in the prior year quarter. Consolidated diluted earnings per share was $0.33 in the current quarter compared to $0.93 in the prior year quarter.

Our results from operations for the three- and six-month period ended June 30, 2014 do not include the full impact of changes in our U.K. operations made in 2014 resulting from several regulatory and legislative changes in 2014. We expect our future results of operations will continue to be adversely affected as a result of modifying many of our business practices to satisfy the requirements of the FCA, including stricter underwriting and affordability assessment guidelines, changes to our collection practices and increased compliance costs, including the cost of establishing and operating an office in the United Kingdom. See “—Recent Regulatory Developments—Financial Conduct Authority” above for further information.

NON-GAAP DISCLOSURE

In addition to the financial information prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, we provide historical non-GAAP financial information. Management believes that presentation of non-GAAP financial information is meaningful and useful in understanding the activities and business metrics of our operations. Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures reflect an additional way of viewing aspects of our business that, when viewed with its GAAP results, provide a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting its business.

Management provides non-GAAP financial information for informational purposes and to enhance understanding of our GAAP consolidated financial statements. Readers should consider the information in addition to, but not instead of or superior to, its financial

29


 

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.

Adjusted Earnings Measures

In addition to reporting financial results in accordance with GAAP, we have provided adjusted earnings and adjusted earnings per share, or, collectively, the Adjusted Earnings Measures, which are non-GAAP measures. Management believes that the presentation of these measures provides investors with greater transparency and facilitates comparison of operating results across a broad spectrum of companies with varying capital structures, compensation strategies, derivative instruments and amortization methods, which provides a more complete understanding of our financial performance, competitive position and prospects for the future. Management also believes that investors regularly rely on non-GAAP financial measures, such as the Adjusted Earnings Measures, to assess operating performance and that such measures may highlight trends in our business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying on financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. In addition, management believes that the adjustments shown below are useful to investors in order to allow them to compare our financial results during the periods shown without the effect of each of these expense items.

The following table provides reconciliations between net income and diluted earnings per share calculated in accordance with GAAP to the Adjusted Earnings Measures, which are shown net of tax (in thousands, except per share data):

Adjusted EBITDA

The table below shows Adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP measure that we define as earnings excluding depreciation, amortization, interest, foreign currency transaction gains or losses, taxes and stock-based compensation expense. Management believes Adjusted EBITDA is used by investors to analyze operating performance and evaluate our ability to incur and service debt and our capacity for making capital expenditures. Adjusted EBITDA is also useful to investors to help assess our estimated enterprise value. In addition, management believes that the adjustment for lease termination and relocation costs shown below is useful to investors in order to allow them to compare our financial results during the periods shown without the effect of the expense item. The computation of Adjusted EBITDA as presented below may differ from the computation of similarly-titled measures provided by other companies (in thousands):

Constant Currency Basis

In addition to reporting financial results in accordance with GAAP, we have provided certain other non-GAAP financial information on a constant currency basis. We operate in the United Kingdom, Australia, Canada and Brazil. During the current quarter and six months ended June 30, 2015, 22.5% and 25.5% of our revenue, respectively, originated in currencies other than the U.S. Dollar, principally the British Pound Sterling. As a result, changes in our reported revenue and profits include the impacts of changes in foreign currency exchange rates. As additional information to the reader, we provide constant currency assessments in the following discussion and analysis to remove and/or quantify the impact of the fluctuation in foreign exchange rates and utilize constant currency results in our analysis of performance. Our constant currency assessment assumes foreign exchange rates in the current fiscal periods remained the same as in the prior fiscal year periods. All conversion rates below are based on the U.S. Dollar equivalent to one of the applicable foreign currency:

Management believes that our non-GAAP constant currency assessments are a useful measure, indicating the actual growth and profitability of our operations.

Combined Loans and Finance Receivables

Combined loans and finance receivables, which are discussed throughout this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, is a non-GAAP measure that includes both loans and RPAs we own and loans we guarantee, which are either GAAP items or disclosures required by GAAP. See Note 3 in the Notes to the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1 “Financial Statements (Unaudited)” in this report.

Management believes this non-GAAP measure provides investors with important information needed to evaluate the magnitude of potential receivable losses and the opportunity for revenue performance of the loans and finance receivables portfolio on an aggregate basis. Management also believes that the comparison of the aggregate amounts from period to period is more meaningful than comparing only the amounts reflected on our balance sheet since both revenue and cost of revenue are impacted by the aggregate amount of receivables we own and those we guarantee as reflected in our financial statements.

THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2015 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2014

Revenue and Gross Profit

Revenue decreased $55.2 million, or 27.4%, to $146.3 million for the current quarter as compared to $201.5 million for the prior year quarter. On a constant currency basis, revenue decreased by $51.7 million, or 25.7% for the current quarter compared to the prior year quarter. The change in revenue is driven by a decrease in revenue of $59.8 million (or $56.3 million on a constant currency basis) from our international operations, primarily due to regulatory changes in the United Kingdom. The decrease in revenue from international operations was partially offset by an increase in revenue of $4.6 million from our domestic operations, primarily resulting from growth in our near-prime installment product.

Our gross profit decreased by $29.9 million to $104.7 million for the current quarter from $134.6 million for the prior year quarter. On a constant currency basis, gross profit decreased by $26.7 million for the current quarter compared to the prior year quarter. Our consolidated gross profit as a percentage of revenue, or our gross profit margin, increased to 71.6% for the current quarter, from 66.8% for the prior year quarter. The increase in gross profit as a percentage of revenue was primarily due to lower loss experience from our international line of credit account product as that portfolio continued to wind down and to a lesser degree our installment loan products. Those portfolios had a lower percentage of delinquent loans, increased collections and a higher percentage of recoveries relative to charge-offs. Approximately half of our gross profit decrease is attributed to the U.K. line of credit account portfolio. Excluding that discontinued product, our gross profit margin increased to 67.1% for the current quarter from 66.9% for the prior year quarter. In 2014, we made refinements to our underwriting models partially as a result of the changes made to our U.K. business in response to the requirements of the FCA, which we believe also contributed to the higher gross profit margin. Our prior year quarter results from operations do not include the full impact of changes in our U.K. operations resulting from regulatory and legislative changes that occurred in 2014. See “—Recent Regulatory Developments—Financial Conduct Authority” above for further information. Management expects the consolidated gross profit margin will continue to be influenced by the mix of loans to new and returning customers, the mix of outstanding loan products as product design and underwriting rules vary, and loan volumes for our U.K. business.

The following tables set forth the components of revenue and gross profit, separated by product and between domestic and international for the current quarter and the prior year quarter (in thousands):

Loan and Finance Receivable Balances

The outstanding combined portfolio balance of loans and finance receivables, net of allowance and liability for estimated losses, increased $22.3 million, or 6.8%, to $347.6 million as of June 30, 2015 from $325.3 million as of June 30, 2014, primarily due to increased demand for our domestic and international near-prime installment products, partially offset by a reduction in international loan balances due to changes made in our U.K. business as a result of new regulatory requirements. Management expects the loan balances in the near-prime installment loan products to continue to comprise a larger percentage of the total loan and finance receivable portfolio, due to customer preference for these products. See “—Non-GAAP Disclosure—Combined Loans and Finance Receivables” above for additional information related to combined loans and finance receivables.

The combined loan and finance receivable balance includes $368.7 million and $359.8 million as of June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, of our receivables balances before the allowance for losses of $51.3 million and $67.8 million provided in the consolidated financial statements for June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The combined loan and finance receivable balance also includes $31.5 million and $34.9 million as of June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, of consumer loan balances that are guaranteed by us, which are not included in our financial statements, before the liability for estimated losses of $1.5 million and $1.6 million provided in “Accounts payable and accrued expenses” in the consolidated financial statements for June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

The average amount outstanding per loan and finance receivable increased to $960 from $828 during the current quarter compared to the prior year quarter, mainly due to a greater mix in the current quarter of installment loans, which have higher average amounts per loan relative to short-term loans, in the current quarter compared to the prior year quarter. This increase was partially offset by a decrease in short-term loans and line of credit accounts, which have a lower average loan amount relative to installment loans.

The average amount per consumer loan increased to $520 from $484 during the current quarter compared to the prior year quarter, mainly due to a greater mix in the current quarter of installment loans, which have higher average amounts per loan relative to short-term loans, and stricter underwriting standards for our U.K. business in the current quarter compared to the prior year quarter. This increase was partially offset by a decrease in short-term loans, which have a lower average loan amount relative to installment loans.

LOANS AND FINANCE RECEIVABLES LOSS EXPERIENCE

The allowance and liability for estimated losses as a percentage of combined consumer loans and RPAs decreased to 13.2% as of June 30, 2015 from 17.6% as of June 30, 2014, primarily due to a greater concentration of our near-prime installment loans in the receivable portfolio and improved performance across all products, partially related to the maturing of our product offerings, such as line of credit accounts and installment loans, to include a higher percentage of customers with established payment histories and partially related to stricter underwriting standards for our U.K. business.

The cost of revenue in the current quarter was $41.6 million, which was composed of $41.1 million related to our owned loans and finance receivables and $0.5 million related to loans we guaranteed through the CSO programs. The cost of revenue in the prior year quarter was $66.8 million, which was composed of $66.4 million related to our owned loans and finance receivables, and $0.4 million related to loans we guaranteed through the CSO programs. Total charge-offs, net of recoveries, were $41.5 million and $73.8 million in the current quarter and the prior year quarter, respectively.

Loans and Finance Receivables Loss Experience by Product

Management evaluates loss rates for all financing products in our portfolio to determine credit quality and evaluate trends. For our products, we evaluate loans and finance receivables losses as a percentage of the average loan and finance receivable balance outstanding or the average combined loan and finance receivable balance outstanding, whichever is applicable, for each portfolio. We expect future loss rates to continue to be affected by changes to our U.K. business. See “—Recent Regulatory Developments—Financial Conduct Authority.”

Short-term Loans

Demand for our short-term loan product in the United States has historically been highest in the third and fourth quarters of each year, corresponding to the holiday season, and lowest in the first quarter of each year, corresponding to our customers’ receipt of income tax refunds. Softer demand for short-term loans in the United States combined with tighter underwriting standards in the United Kingdom due to changes in the regulatory environment resulted in lower year-over-year balances. Typically, our gross profit margin is highest in the first quarter of each year, corresponding to the seasonal decline in consumer loan balances outstanding. The cost of revenue as a percentage of the average combined loan balance for short-term loans outstanding is typically lower in the first quarter and generally peaks in the second half of the year with higher loan demand. The cost of revenue as a percentage of the average combined loan balance of short-term loans was impacted by increased collections as well as refinements made to our loan underwriting models, primarily as a result of changes in business practices in the United Kingdom. The average short-term combined loan balance outstanding for short-term loans declined during 2014 and 2015, primarily due to these changes in business practices in the United Kingdom.

Line of Credit Accounts

The cost of revenue as a percentage of average loan balance for line of credit accounts exhibits a similar quarterly seasonal trend to short-term loan loss rates as the ratio is typically lower in the first quarter and increases throughout the remainder of the year, peaking in the second half of the year with higher loan demand.

The gross profit margin is generally lower for line of credit accounts because the highest levels of default are exhibited in the early stages of the account, while the revenue is recognized over the term of the account. As a result, particularly in periods of higher growth for line of credit account portfolios the gross profit margin will be lower for this product than for our short-term loan products. Conversely, in periods of declining originations and portfolio contraction, as has been the case in recent periods, the gross profit margin will be higher for this product. The year-over-year decrease in the allowance for losses as a percentage of loan balance was primarily due to the maturing of the line of credit portfolio which reflected a lower percentage of the portfolio in a delinquent status and a decline during 2015 in the average line of credit balance, primarily as a result of changes in business practices in the United Kingdom. In the fourth quarter of 2014, we discontinued offering line of credit accounts to new customers in the United Kingdom, and effective January 1, 2015, we discontinued offering draws on existing accounts in the United Kingdom due to the FCA’s cap on the total cost of high-cost short-term credit that went into effect on January 2, 2015. See “—Recent Regulatory Developments—Financial Conduct Authority” for further discussion. As of June 30, 2015, the U.K. line of credit portfolio balance was $4.2 million. Once U.K. customers have paid off their outstanding line of credit balance, they may be eligible to apply for either a short-term or installment loan. We also expect to introduce additional installment loan products in late 2015 or early 2016 to serve the needs of qualifying U.K. customers.

Installment Loans

For installment loans, the cost of revenue as a percentage of average loan and finance receivable balance is typically more consistent throughout the year. Due to the scheduled monthly or bi-weekly payments that are inherent with installment loans, we do not experience the higher level of repayments in the first quarter for these loans as we experience with short-term loans and, to a lesser extent, line of credit accounts.

The gross profit margin is generally lower for the installment loan product than for other loan products, primarily because the highest levels of default are exhibited in the early stages of the loan, while revenue is recognized over the term of the loan. In addition, installment loans typically have a higher average amount per loan. Another factor contributing to the lower gross profit margin is that the loan yield for installment loans is typically lower than the yield for the other loan products we offer. As a result, particularly in periods of higher growth for the installment loan portfolio, which has been the case in recent years, the gross profit margin is typically lower for this product than for our short-term loan products. During the current quarter, we experienced higher gross profit margin than we experienced in the prior year quarter, primarily due to the continuing maturation of the portfolio and a decline in loan originations in the United Kingdom due to changes initiated in that market in 2014.

Total Expenses

Total expenses decreased $4.8 million, or 6.1%, to $74.4 million in the current quarter, compared to $79.2 million in the prior year quarter. On a constant currency basis, total expenses decreased $3.3 million, or 4.2%, for the current quarter compared to the prior year quarter.

Marketing expense decreased to $24.7 million in the current quarter compared to $30.8 million in the prior year quarter. Lower domestic and international lead generation costs and lower online marketing costs in our international operations were partially offset by higher domestic direct mail and other marketing costs.

Operations and technology expense increased to $17.6 million in the current quarter compared to $17.1 million in the prior year quarter, primarily reflecting increased personnel costs in our domestic operations resulting from higher loan volume, partially offset by a decrease in transaction costs in our international operations.

General and administrative expense increased $0.2 million, or 0.6%, to $27.1 million in the current quarter compared to $26.9 million in the prior year quarter, primarily due to a charge for the remaining rent obligations and relocation costs on our prior headquarters following our relocation. These increases were partially offset by lower incentive accruals as the prior year quarter financial

38


 

performance was stronger on a year-over-year basis and by lower incremental standalone expenses in the current quarter compared to corporate services costs allocated from Cash America in the prior year quarter.

Depreciation and amortization expense increased $0.7 million, or 16.6%, in the current quarter compared to the prior year quarter, primarily due to the acceleration of depreciation and a higher depreciable asset base resulting from the relocation of our headquarters in 2015.

Interest Expense, Net

On May 30, 2014, we issued and sold $500.0 million in aggregate principal amount of senior notes, or the Notes, in a private offering and terminated our credit agreement with Cash America. The Notes bear interest at a rate of 9.75% and were sold at a discount of the principal amount thereof to yield 10.0% to maturity. We used all of the net proceeds, or $479.0 million, of the Notes offering to repay all of our intercompany indebtedness due to Cash America, which was $361.4 million as of May 30, 2014, and the remaining net proceeds were used to pay a significant portion of a $122.4 million cash dividend to Cash America, of which $120.7 million was paid on May 30, 2014 and $1.7 million was paid on June 30, 2014. Prior to issuing the Notes, we utilized affiliate borrowing agreements with Cash America for all borrowing arrangements. Pursuant to these agreements, interest was charged at a base rate plus an applicable margin.

Interest expense, net increased $5.6 million, or 76.5%, to $12.9 million in the current quarter compared to $7.3 million in the prior year quarter. The increase was due to an increase in the weighted average interest rate on our outstanding debt to 9.98% in the current quarter from 6.82% in the prior year quarter, and an increase in the average amount of debt outstanding, which increased $80.7 million to $495.5 million during the current quarter from $414.8 million during the prior year quarter.

Provision for Income Taxes

Provision for income taxes decreased $10.7 million, or 61.9%, to $6.5 million in the current quarter compared to $17.2 million in the prior year quarter. The decrease was primarily due to a 63.6% decrease in income before income taxes which was partially offset by an increase in the effective tax rate to 37.7% in the current quarter from 36.0% in the prior year quarter, primarily due to the proportional increase of domestic income subject to state taxes and, to a lesser extent, limitations on the deductibility of compensation under Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code and expenses not deductible for tax purposes.  

SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2015 COMPARED TO SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2014

Revenue and Gross Profit

Revenue decreased $97.9 million, or 23.9%, to $312.0 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2015, or current six-month period, as compared to $409.9 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2014, or prior year six-month period. On a constant currency basis, revenue decreased by $90.2 million, or 22.0% for the current six-month period compared to the prior year six-month period. The change in revenue is driven by a decrease in revenue of $112.6 million (or $104.8 million on a constant currency basis) from our international operations, primarily due to regulatory changes in the United Kingdom. The decrease in revenue from international operations was partially offset by an increase in revenue of $14.6 million from our domestic operations, primarily resulting from growth in our near-prime installment product.

Our gross profit decreased by $44.8 million to $231.9 million for the current six-month period from $276.7 million for the prior year six-month period. On a constant currency basis, gross profit decreased by $37.8 million for the current six-month period compared to the prior year six-month period. Our consolidated gross profit as a percentage of revenue, or our gross profit margin, increased to 74.3% for the current six-month period, from 67.5% for the prior year six-month period. The increase in gross profit as a percentage of revenue was primarily due to lower loss experience from our international line of credit product and to a lesser degree our installment loan products, mainly as a result of improved delinquency, increased collections and a higher percentage of recoveries relative to charge-offs during the period. When we discontinued the international line of credit product in the United Kingdom at the beginning of 2015 borrowers began paying down and paying off their outstanding balances. Approximately one-third of our gross profit decrease is attributed to the U.K. line of credit account portfolio.  Excluding that discontinued product, our gross profit margin increased to 70.6% for the current six-month period, from 69.0% for the prior year six-month period. In 2014, we made refinements to our underwriting models partially as a result of the changes made to our U.K. business in response to the requirements of the FCA, which we believe also contributed to the higher gross profit margin. Our prior year six-month period results from operations do not include the full impact of changes in our U.K. operations resulting from regulatory and legislative changes that occurred in 2014. See “—Recent Regulatory Developments—Financial Conduct Authority” above for further information.

The average amount per loan increased to $518 from $490 during the current six-month period compared to the prior year six-month period, mainly due to a greater mix in the current six-month period of installment loans, which have higher average amounts per loan relative to short-term loans, and stricter underwriting standards for our U.K. business in the current six-month period compared to the prior year six-month period. This increase was partially offset by a decrease in short-term loans, which have a lower average loan amount relative to installment loans.

Loans and Finance Receivables Loss Experience

The allowance and liability for estimated losses as a percentage of combined loans and finance receivables decreased to 13.2% as of June 30, 2015 from 17.6% as of June 30, 2014, primarily due to a greater concentration of our near-prime installment loans in the loan and finance receivable portfolio and improved performance across all products, partially related to the maturing of our product offerings, such as line of credit accounts and installment loans, to include a higher percentage of customers with established payment histories and partially related to stricter underwriting standards for our U.K. business.

The cost of revenue in the current six-month period was $80.1 million, which was composed of $80.3 million related to our owned loans and finance receivables offset by a $0.2 million decrease in the liability for estimated losses related to loans we guaranteed through the CSO programs. The cost of revenue in the prior year six-month period was $133.2 million, which was composed of $133.7 million related to our owned loans and finance receivables offset by a $0.5 million decrease in the liability for estimated losses related to loans we guaranteed through the CSO programs. Total charge-offs, net of recoveries, were $93.7 million and $149.4 million in the current six-month period and the prior year six-month period, respectively.

Total Expenses

Total expenses decreased $6.7 million, or 4.4%, to $147.4 million in the current six-month period, compared to $154.1 million in the prior year six-month period. On a constant currency basis, total expenses decreased $4.1 million, or 2.7%, for the current six-month period compared to the prior year six-month period.

Marketing expense decreased to $48.9 million in the current six-month period compared to $59.3 million in the prior year six-month period. Lower domestic and international lead generation costs and lower online marketing costs in our international operations were partially offset by higher domestic direct mail and other marketing costs.

Operations and technology expense increased to $35.6 million in the current six-month period compared to $35.0 million in the prior year six-month period, primarily reflecting increased computer and software expenses.

General and administrative expense increased $1.2 million, or 2.5%, to $52.6 million in the current six-month period compared to $51.4 million in the prior year six-month period, primarily due to a charge for the remaining rent obligations and relocation costs for our prior headquarters. These increases were partially offset by lower incentive accruals as the prior year six-month period financial performance was stronger on a year-over-year basis and by lower incremental standalone expenses in the current six-month period compared to corporate services costs allocated from Cash America in the prior year six-month period.

Depreciation and amortization expense increased $1.9 million, or 22.3%, in the current six-month period compared to the prior year six-month period, primarily due to the acceleration of depreciation and a higher depreciable asset base resulting from the office relocation of our headquarters in the current six-month period.

Interest Expense, Net

Interest expense, net increased $14.1 million, or 117.2%, to $26.2 million in the current six-month period compared to $12.1 million in the prior year six-month period. The increase was due to an increase in the weighted average interest rate on our outstanding debt to 9.99% in the current six-month period from 5.76% in the prior year six-month period, and an increase in the average amount of debt outstanding, which increased $84.6 million to $494.9 million during the current six-month period from $410.3 million during the prior year six-month period.

Provision for Income Taxes

Provision for income taxes decreased $17.5 million, or 44.5%, to $21.9 million in the current six-month period compared to $39.4 million in the prior year six-month period. The decrease was primarily due to a 48.0% decrease in income before income taxes which was partially offset by an increase in the effective tax rate to 38.2% in the current six-month period from 35.8% in the prior year six-month period, primarily due to the proportional increase of domestic income subject to state taxes and, to a lesser extent, limitations

on the deductibility of compensation under Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code and expenses not deductible for tax purposes.  

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Capital Funding Strategy

Historically, we have generated significant cash flow through normal operating activities for funding both long-term and short-term needs. Our near-term liquidity is managed to ensure that adequate resources are available to fund our seasonal working capital growth, which is driven by demand for our loan products. In addition to operating cash flows, liquidity was historically provided by affiliate advances from Cash America that were evidenced through borrowings under an intercompany credit agreement with Cash America. Our credit agreement with Cash America permitted us to borrow, repay and re-borrow funds from Cash America on a revolving credit basis in a maximum amount equal to $450 million. On May 30, 2014, we issued and sold the Notes, as further discussed below under “Senior Notes.” On May 14, 2014, we entered into our credit agreement, which was amended on March 25, 2015, as further described below under “Credit Agreement.” As of June 30, 2015, our available borrowings under the Credit Agreement were $58.4 million. We expect that our operating needs will be satisfied by a combination of cash flows from operations and borrowings under our Credit Agreement.

As of June 30, 2015, we were in compliance with all financial ratios, covenants and other requirements set forth in our debt agreements. Unexpected changes in our financial condition or other unforeseen factors may result in our inability to obtain third-party financing or could increase our borrowing costs in the future. To the extent we experience short-term or long-term funding disruptions, we have the ability to adjust our volume of lending to consumers that would reduce cash outflow requirements while increasing cash inflows through repayments of consumer loans. Additional alternatives may include the securitization or sale of assets and reductions in capital spending which could be expected to generate additional liquidity.

Senior Notes

On May 30, 2014, we issued and sold the Notes. The Notes were sold to qualified institutional buyers in accordance with Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, and outside the United States pursuant to Regulation S under the Securities Act.

We used all of the net proceeds, or $479.0 million, of the Note offering to repay all of our intercompany indebtedness due to Cash America, which was $361.4 million as of May 30, 2014, and the remaining net proceeds were used to pay a significant portion of $122.4 million in cash dividends we paid to Cash America, of which $120.7 million was paid on May 30, 2014 and $1.7 million was paid on June 30, 2014.

The Notes are governed by an Indenture, or the Indenture, dated May 30, 2014, between us, our domestic subsidiaries, as Guarantors, and the trustee. The Notes bear interest at a rate of 9.75% per year on the principal amount of the Notes, payable semi-annually in arrears on June 1 and December 1 of each year, beginning on December 1, 2014. The Notes will mature on June 1, 2021. The Notes are senior unsecured debt obligations of Enova and are unconditionally guaranteed by our domestic subsidiaries. The Indenture contains certain covenants that, among other things, limit our and certain of our subsidiaries’ ability to incur additional debt, acquire or create new subsidiaries, create liens, engage in certain transactions with affiliates and consolidate or merge with or into other companies. The Indenture provides for customary events of default, including non-payment and failure to comply with covenants or other agreements in the Indenture.

Credit Agreement

On March 25, 2015, we and certain of our domestic subsidiaries, as guarantors, entered into an amendment to our revolving credit facility (the “Amendment”) with Jefferies Finance LLC, as administrative agent. The Amendment reduced our unsecured revolving line of credit to $65.0 million (from $75.0 million) and increased an additional senior secured indebtedness basket to the greater of $20.0 million or 2.75% of consolidated total assets (as defined in the credit agreement) (from $15.0 million or 2% of consolidated total assets). In addition, the Amendment revised certain definitions and provisions relating to limitations on indebtedness, investments, dispositions, fundamental changes and burdensome agreements to allow certain of our foreign subsidiaries, which opt to become guarantors of our obligations under the credit agreement, to be treated as domestic subsidiaries for purposes of those provisions.

Our Credit Agreement will mature on June 30, 2017. The revolving line of credit under the Credit Agreement was undrawn as of June 30, 2015. We had standby letters of credit of $6.6 million under our Credit Agreement as of June 30, 2015.

Financial Conduct Authority

42


 

See “—Recent Regulatory Developments—Financial Conduct Authority” for a discussion of changes we have made to our U.K business practices in response to the requirements of the FCA and the cap on the total cost of credit in the United Kingdom. We have experienced a decline in working capital necessary to operate our U.K. consumer loan business as consumer loans outstanding, revenue and cost of revenue declined during the second half of 2014 and into 2015 as we adjusted our business practices and loan products. If we are successful in acquiring new or returning customers at a higher rate than our competitors over the remainder of 2015, our U.K consumer loan business may experience an increase in working capital necessary to operate the business.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities decreased $103.0 million, or 43.3%, to $134.9 million for the current six-month period from $237.9 million for the prior year six-month period. The decrease was primarily driven by a $53.1 million decrease in cost of revenue, a non-cash expense, during the current six-month period, a $35.3 million decrease in net income and an $11.5 million decrease in the related party payable, net balance.

Management believes cash flows from operations and available cash balances and borrowings will be sufficient to fund our future operating liquidity needs.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities decreased $14.5 million, or 11.0%, for the current six-month period compared to the prior year six-month period, primarily due to a $51.9 million decrease in net cash invested in loans and finance receivables due to a lower level of loans originated or acquired and a higher rate of loans and finance receivables repaid compared to loans originated or acquired. The implementation of stricter affordability assessments and underwriting standards in the United Kingdom contributed to this decrease in net cash used in investing activities.

In June 2015, we completed the purchase of certain assets of a small business financing company located in Cincinnati, Ohio. The purchase agreement provided for the payment of $17.7 million in cash and the non-cash issuance of a $3.0 million promissory note at closing. We also agreed to pay up to three supplemental earn-out payments during the three-year period after the closing for which we estimated and accrued $6.1 million in future earn-out consideration. See Note 2 in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

Expenditures for property and equipment increased $19.7 million to $26.5 million in the current six-month period compared to $6.8 million in the prior year six-month period, primarily for costs related to the relocation of our headquarters. Management anticipates that total expenditures for property and equipment will be between $33 million and $38 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2015, primarily for finish-out and furnishings related to the relocation of our headquarters and continued development activities related to our technology platform and the purchase of computer hardware.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

We had no cash flows from financing activities in the current six-month period. In the prior year six-month period, we issued the Notes and entered into the Credit Agreement. We used all of the net proceeds of the Notes offering, or $479.0 million, to repay all of our intercompany indebtedness due to Cash America, which was $361.4 million as of May 30, 2014, and the remaining net proceeds were used to pay a significant portion of $122.4 million in cash dividends we paid to Cash America, of which $120.7 million was paid on May 30, 2014 and $1.7 million was paid on June 30, 2014. Also, we incurred $16.3 million of debt issuance costs in the current nine-month period resulting from the issuance of the Notes and the Credit Agreement. See “—Senior Notes” and “—Credit Facility”

above for additional information about the Notes and Credit Agreement, respectively. In addition, cash flows used in financing activities for the current nine-month period reflects $70.3 million of net payments to Cash America (excluding the $361.4 million repayment on May 30, 2014).

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

In certain markets, we arrange for consumers to obtain consumer loan products from independent third-party lenders through our CSO programs. For consumer loan products originated by third-party lenders under the CSO programs, each lender is responsible for providing the criteria by which the customer’s application is underwritten and, if approved, determining the amount of the consumer loan. We are responsible for assessing whether or not we will guarantee such loan. When a customer executes an agreement with us under our CSO programs, we agree, for a fee payable to us by the customer, to provide certain services to the customer, one of which is to guarantee the customer’s obligation to repay the loan received by the customer from the third-party lender if the customer fails to do so. The guarantee represents an obligation to purchase specific loans if they go into default, which generally occurs after one payment is missed. As of June 30, 2015 and 2014, the outstanding amount of active consumer loans originated by third-party lenders under the CSO programs was $31.5 million and $34.9 million, respectively, which were guaranteed by us.

 

ITEM 3.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Market risks relating to our operations result primarily from changes in foreign currency exchange rates. We do not engage in speculative or leveraged transactions, nor do we hold or issue financial instruments for trading purposes. There have been no material changes to our exposure to market risks since December 31, 2014.

 

 

ITEM 4.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, our management has evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or the “Exchange Act”) as of June 30, 2015 (the “Evaluation Date”). Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of the Evaluation Date, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective and provide reasonable assurance (i) to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms; and (ii) to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2015 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or internal controls will prevent or detect all possible misstatements due to error or fraud. Our disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls are, however, designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives, and our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective at that reasonable assurance level.

ITEM 1A.

RISK FACTORS

Except as set forth below, there have been no material changes from the Risk Factors described in Item 1A. “Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014.

Our business is highly regulated, and if we fail to comply with applicable laws, regulations, rules and guidance, our business could be adversely affected.

Our products and services are subject to extensive regulation, supervision and/or licensing under various federal, state, local and international statutes, ordinances, regulations, rules and guidance. For example, our loan products may be subject to requirements that generally mandate licensing or authorization as a lender or as a credit services organization or credit access business, or CSO, establish limits on the amount, duration, renewals or extensions of and charges for (including interest rates and fees) various categories of loans, direct the form and content of our loan contracts and other documentation, restrict collection practices, outline underwriting requirements and subject us to periodic examination and ongoing supervision by regulatory authorities, among other things. We must comply with federal laws, such as TILA, the Equal Credit Opportunity Act, the Fair Credit Reporting Act, the Electronic Funds Transfer Act, the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act and Title X of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010, or the Dodd-Frank Act, and the FDCPA, among other laws,  as well as regulations adopted to implement those laws. In addition, our marketing and disclosure efforts and the representations made about our products and services are subject to unfair and deceptive practice statutes, including the Federal Trade Commission Act, the Telephone Consumer Protection Act and the CAN-SPAM Act of 2003 in the United States and analogous state statutes under which the Federal Trade Commission, or the FTC, the CFPB, state attorneys general or private plaintiffs may bring legal actions.

We are also subject to various international laws, licensing or authorization requirements and disciplinary actions in connection with the products or services we offer in Australia, China, Brazil, Canada, and the United Kingdom, which are discussed below. Compliance with applicable laws, regulations, rules and guidance requires forms, processes, procedures, training, controls and the infrastructure to support these requirements. Compliance may also create operational constraints, be costly or adversely affect operating results. See “Business—Regulation” of Part I, Item 1 of this report for further discussion of the laws applicable to us.

The regulatory environment in which we conduct our business is extensive and complex. From time to time we become aware of instances where our products and services have not fully complied with requirements under applicable laws and regulations or applicable contracts. Determinations of compliance with applicable requirements or contracts, such as those discussed above, can be highly technical and subject to varying interpretations. When we become aware of such an instance, whether as a result of our compliance reviews, regulator inquiry, customer complaint or otherwise, we generally conduct a review of the activity in question and determine how to address it, such as modifying the product, making customer refunds or providing additional disclosure. We also evaluate whether reports or other notices to regulators are required and provide notice to regulators whenever required. In some cases we have decided to take corrective action even after applicable statutory or regulatory cure periods have expired, and in some cases we have notified regulators even where such notification may not have been required. Regulators or customers reviewing such incidents or remedial activities may interpret the laws, regulations and customer contracts differently than we have, or may choose to take regulatory action against us or bring private litigation against us notwithstanding the corrective measures we have taken. This may be the case even if we no longer offer the product or service in question.  State, federal and international regulators, as well as the plaintiffs’ bars, have subjected our industry to intense scrutiny in recent years. In addition, our contracts for certain products and services are governed by the law applicable in a state other than the state in which the customer resides. If a court were to reject our choice of law and determine that a contract was governed by the laws of another state, the contract may be unenforceable. Failure to comply with applicable laws, regulations, rules and guidance, or any finding that our past forms, practices, processes, procedures, controls or infrastructure were insufficient or not in compliance, could subject us to regulatory enforcement actions, result in the assessment against us of civil, monetary, criminal or other penalties (some of which could be significant in the case of knowing or reckless violations), result in the issuance of cease and desist orders (which can include orders for restitution, as well as other kinds of affirmative relief), require us to refund payments, interest or fees, result in a determination that certain financial products are not collectible, result in a revocation of licenses or authorization to transact business, result in a finding that we have engaged in unfair and deceptive practices, limit our access to services provided by third-party financial institutions or cause damage to our reputation, brands and valued customer relationships. We may also incur additional, substantial expense to bring those products and services into compliance with the laws of various states or stop offering certain products and services in certain jurisdictions.

45


 

Our failure to comply with any regulations, rules or guidance applicable to our business could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows and could prohibit or directly or indirectly impair our ability to continue current operations.

The consumer lending industry continues to be targeted by new laws or regulations in many jurisdictions that could restrict the short-term consumer lending products and services we offer, impose additional compliance costs on us, render our current operations unprofitable or even prohibit our current operations.

Governments at the national, state and local levels, as well as international governments, may seek to impose new laws, regulatory restrictions or licensing requirements that affect the products or services we offer, the terms on which we may offer them, and the disclosure, compliance and reporting obligations we must fulfill in connection with our consumer lending business. They may also interpret or enforce existing requirements in new ways that could restrict our ability to continue our current methods of operation or to expand operations, impose significant additional compliance costs, and may have a negative effect on our business, prospects, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. In some cases these measures could even directly prohibit some or all of our current business activities in certain jurisdictions, or render them unprofitable and/or impractical to continue.

 

On July 22, 2015, the Department of Defense published its final rule amending the Military Lending Act’s (MLA) implementing regulation. The new rule expands the scope of the credit products covered by the MLA. The rules under the MLA restrict us from offering loan products to covered borrowers at military annual percentage rate, which is defined by the rules, of more than 36%, and contain various disclosure requirements, limitations on renewals and refinancing, as well as restrictions on the use of prepayment penalties, arbitration provisions and certain waivers of rights. The rule provides that a lender is subject to fines and other penalties if it extends credit to a covered borrower on prohibited terms.  The new rule is scheduled to become effective on October 3, 2016. Compliance with the new rule and coordinating with a safe harbor database could be complex and increase our compliance costs.

In recent years, consumer loans, and in particular the category commonly referred to as “payday loans,” which includes certain of our short-term loan products, have come under increased regulatory scrutiny that has resulted in increasingly restrictive regulations and legislation that makes offering such loans in certain states in the United States or the international countries where we operate (as further described below) less profitable or unattractive. Laws or regulations in some states in the United States require that all borrowers of certain short-term loan products be reported to a centralized database and limit the number of loans a borrower may receive or have outstanding. Other laws limit the availability of some of our consumer loan products in the United States to active duty military personnel, active members of the National Guard or members on active reserve duty and their spouses and immediate dependents.

Certain consumer advocacy groups and federal and state legislators and regulators have advocated that laws and regulations should be tightened so as to severely limit, if not eliminate, the type of loan products and services we offer to consumers, and this has resulted in both the executive and legislative branches of the U.S. federal government and state governmental bodies exhibiting an interest in debating legislation that could further regulate consumer loan products and services such as those that we offer. The U.S. Congress, as well as other similar federal, state and local bodies and similar international governmental authorities, have debated, and may in the future adopt, legislation or regulations that could, among other things, place a cap (or decrease a current cap) on the interest or fees that we can charge or a cap on the effective annual percentage rate that limits the amount of interest or fees that may be charged, ban or limit loan renewals or extensions (where the customer agrees to pay the current finance charge on a loan for the right to make payment of the outstanding principal balance of such loan at a later date plus an additional finance charge), including the rates to be charged for loan renewals or extensions, require us to offer an extended payment plan, limit origination fees for loans, require changes to our underwriting or collections practices, require short-term lenders to be bonded or require lenders to report consumer loan activity to databases designed to monitor or restrict consumer borrowing activity, impose “cooling off” periods between the time a loan is paid off and another loan is obtained or prohibit us from providing any of our consumer loan products in the United States to active duty military personnel, active members of the National Guard or members on active reserve duty and their spouses and immediate dependents.

Significant new laws and regulations have also been adopted in the United Kingdom, and further new laws and regulations will continue to be imposed. See “— The United Kingdom has imposed, and continues to impose, increased regulation of the short-term high-cost credit industry with the stated expectation that some firms will exit the market” below for additional information.

We cannot currently assess the likelihood of any future unfavorable federal, state, local or international legislation or regulations being proposed or enacted that could affect our products and services. We closely monitor proposed legislation in jurisdictions where we offer our loan products. Additional legislative or regulatory provisions could be enacted that could severely restrict, prohibit or eliminate our ability to offer a consumer loan product. In addition, under statutory authority, U.S. state regulators have broad discretionary power and may impose new licensing requirements, interpret or enforce existing regulatory requirements in different ways or issue new administrative rules, even if not contained in state statutes, that could adversely affect the way we do business and

46


 

may force us to terminate or modify our operations in particular states or affect our ability to obtain new licenses or renew the licenses we hold.

Furthermore, legislative or regulatory actions may be influenced by negative perceptions of us and our industry, even if such negative perceptions are inaccurate, attributable to conduct by third parties not affiliated with us (such as other industry members), or attributable to matters not specific to our industry.

Any of these or other legislative or regulatory actions that affect our consumer loan business at the national, state, international and local level could, if enacted or interpreted differently, have a material adverse impact on our business, prospects, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows and could prohibit or directly or indirectly impair our ability to continue current operations.
