EZCORP Reports Third Quarter Fiscal Year 2020 Results
Austin, Texas (August 4, 2020) — EZCORP, Inc. (NASDAQ: EZPW) today announced results for its fiscal third quarter ended June 30, 2020.

All amounts in this release are from EZCORP continuing operations and in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") unless otherwise noted. Comparisons shown in this release are to the same period in the prior year unless otherwise noted. 
HIGHLIGHTS FOR THIRD QUARTER OF FISCAL 2020    
Total revenues grew 4% in the quarter to $210.2 million. Retail sales grew 31% to $136.5 million, driven primarily by strong demand for merchandise for working and schooling from home. Net revenues declined 12% driven by a 34% reduction in pawn service (PSC) revenue, partially offset by a 33% increase in merchandise sales gross profit.
Operations expenses declined by 3% to $83.8 million while total store count grew by 2%.
Loss before taxes was $10.2 million, compared to profit before taxes of $3.5 million in the prior-year quarter. On an adjusted basis1, loss before taxes was $3.5 million, compared to profit before taxes of $13.6 million in the prior-year quarter. Diluted loss per share was $0.10, compared to diluted earnings per share of $0.06 in the prior-year quarter. On an adjusted basis, diluted loss per share was $0.01, compared to diluted earnings per share of $0.16. 
Pawn loan volume was reduced during the quarter by emergency stimulus payment actions in the U.S. and restrictions on customer movements and localized store closure orders in Latin America. Pawn loans outstanding (PLO) decreased 40% to $113.3 million (down 39% to $116.8 million on a constant currency basis), which led to a 34% reduction in PSC revenue to $52.5 million (down 31% to $54.4 million on a constant currency basis). 
Net inventory of $123.1 million ($127.1 million on a constant currency basis) decreased 30%, reflecting annualized inventory turnover of 2.9x. Sales margin of 33% increased 40bps despite a $2.2 million adjustment to merchandise cost of goods sold due to looting at 30 stores during riots in the U.S.  
Cash and cash equivalents increased to $311 million as of June 30, 2020, an increase of over $100 million compared to the prior quarter. The decline in new pawn loan originations and increased merchandise and scrap sales all benefited the cash position. 
Following a review of strategic alternatives for the non-core CashMax business in Canada, the Company has decided to close the remaining 22 stores. The shutdown of the business and related operations will be substantially completed during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020 and will result in charges of approximately $8.0 - $10.0 million. 
CEO COMMENTARY AND OUTLOOK 
Chief Executive Officer Jason Kulas stated: “Our results for the fiscal third quarter were highlighted by ongoing revenue growth driven by strong retail sales. As a result of stimulus payments and extended unemployment and forbearance benefits, our customers’ needs for cash were lower in the quarter, driving declines in PLO and PSC.  While sales gross profit margins were strong, the tradeoff in higher-margin pawn service charges for lower-margin merchandise sales negatively impacted EBITDA and EPS in the quarter. 
“In these uncertain times, we are focused on the safety of our team members and customers and on our continued financial strength. Our cash balance grew by over $100 million to $311 million from the second quarter, positioning us to meet our customers’ short-term needs for cash as loan demand rebounds.  In addition, our team is focused on increasing the efficiency of our operations, with significant expense reductions planned for fiscal year 2021. These efforts are expected to add an even greater level of resiliency to our business through the current environment and future economic cycles. 
“In addition to optimizing our cost structure to maximize profitability and better align with near-term PLO trends, we are focused on creating long-term shareholder value by strengthening our core business operations and continuing to innovate and grow.  Our optimization of pricing, lending and transactional efficiencies, and the modernization of our IT and data assets, will





drive more consistent profitability. Our efforts to give customers more convenient choices, both in-store and through our Lana platform, will result in a superior customer experience, and our continued de novo store growth will give us the opportunity to expand our platform. 
“Looking ahead, while it will take time for PLO and PSC to rebuild, we remain confident that demand for pawn loans will accelerate, thereby driving higher revenue growth and increased earnings power, particularly as we increasingly rationalize expenses and invest in value-added initiatives.”

Total revenues grew 4% to $210.2 million. PSC was down 34% to $52.5 million largely reflecting lower average PLO for the quarter, a result of a lower pawn loan demand during the quarter. 
Merchandise sales grew 31% and scrap sales were up 11%. Merchandise sales were particularly strong in consumer electronics, while scrap sales benefited from higher gold prices. 
Net revenues were down 12% at $102.2 million. Consolidated merchandise sales gross profit increased 33% to $44.7 million, with a 31% increase in merchandise sales.
Consolidated operations expenses decreased 3%. Total store count increased 2%, consisting of a net 23 stores acquired or opened since the end of the prior-year quarter. Administrative expense increased 7% to $14.7 million
Gross interest expense decreased $4.5 million reflecting the June 2019 repayment of $195.0 million of cash convertible debt. Gross interest income decreased $2.5 million due to collections on notes receivable since the prior-year period. 
Third quarter fiscal 2020 results include a loss of $1.8 million in inventory, $0.4 million in loan restitution losses and $0.2 million in property, plant and equipment due to lootings that occurred in 30 of our U.S. stores during riots in late May and early June. 
SEGMENT RESULTS
U.S. Pawn
Total revenue was up 12% reflecting 39% growth in merchandise sales. 
PSC was down 30%, largely reflecting lower average PLO for the quarter as a result of lower loan demand and increased loan redemptions believed to be related to federal economic stimulus.
Merchandise margins of 35% remain within our targeted range. When excluding losses from looting of $2.2 million from merchandise cost of goods sold, margins were unchanged at 37%. Aged general merchandise inventory improved to 4.9% from 6.3% in the prior year. Jewelry scrapping gross profit increased 86%, with related margins up 900bps to 25% on higher gold prices. 
Segment contribution decreased $7.1 million to $16.6 million, the result of a $17.6 million reduction in PSC partially offset by increased merchandise sales and scrap sales gross profit.  






Latin America Pawn
Merchandise sales grew 1%, to $20.3 million (20% to $24.0 million on a constant currency basis). Merchandise gross sales margins were 21% while aged general merchandise inventory increased to 18.5% of total general merchandise inventory, both the result of a more challenging environment in our Latin America countries, as well as store closures, limited operating hours and restrictions on mobility in GPMX.  
Net revenues decreased 33% to $15.5 million (down 21% to $18.4 million on a constant currency basis) largely reflecting lower PSC due in part to COVID-19 related store closures, reduced public transportation and curfews imposed in some Latin America countries. 
PSC decreased 44% to $11.4 million (down 35% to $13.3 million on a constant currency basis) as a result of lower average PLO for the quarter and a lower yield on pawn loans, reflecting our commitment to work with customers by negotiating reduced interest payments on a case-by-case basis.
Operations expense was tightly managed, down 18% to $15.0 million
Latin America Pawn added three de novo stores in the quarter. New store openings typically pressure earnings in the short term as they ramp up but drive higher profitability over time.
Segment loss for the quarter was $0.7 million ($0.4 million on a constant currency basis), compared to a contribution of $2.1 million in the prior year quarter, primarily reflecting lower PSC revenues.
Over 99% of stores in Latin America are currently open. More specifically: 
Mexico (367 stores) — Excluding short-term closings due to regulatory decree or safety protocols, stores in Mexico were generally open most of the quarter. However, retail sales in all stores were prohibited by regulators during the last three weeks of May. During the quarter, one de novo store was opened.
Guatemala (85 stores) — Regulators imposed country-wide lock-downs on many weekends, 39 mall-based locations were closed for extended periods (5 of which have been closed since March 17), and certain restrictions prohibited stores to be open after 5:00 pm. Two de novo stores opened during quarter.  
El Salvador (17 stores) — Stores were closed as part of a broad government-imposed lock-down from late March through mid-June when all stores opened.  
Honduras (16 stores) — Honduras was on lock- down during the last half of March. We were able to reopen five stores on March 26 and another eleven stores on April 11.  
Peru (11 stores) — Starting the second week of March through mid-May, all stores were closed. We were able to reopen six stores on May 15 and five more stores on June 20.

Non-GAAP Financial Information (Unaudited)
In addition to the financial information prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"), we provide certain other non-GAAP financial information on a constant currency basis ("constant currency"). We use constant currency results to evaluate our Latin America Pawn operations, which are denominated primarily in Mexican pesos, Guatemalan quetzals and other Latin American currencies. We believe that presentation of constant currency results is meaningful and useful in understanding the activities and business metrics of our Latin America Pawn operations and reflect an additional way of viewing aspects of our business that, when viewed with GAAP results, provide a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our business. We provide non-GAAP financial information for informational purposes and to enhance understanding of our GAAP consolidated financial statements. We use this non-GAAP financial information to evaluate and compare operating results across accounting periods. Readers should consider the information in addition to, but not instead of or superior to, our financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. This non-GAAP financial information may be determined or calculated differently by other companies, limiting the usefulness of those measures for comparative purposes.
Constant currency results reported herein are calculated by translating consolidated balance sheet and consolidated statement of operations items denominated in local currency to U.S. dollars using the exchange rate from the prior-year comparable period, as opposed to the current period, in order to exclude the effects of foreign currency rate fluctuations. We used the end-of-period rate for balance sheet items and the average closing daily exchange rate on a monthly basis during the appropriate period for statement of operations items. Our statement of operations constant currency results reflect the monthly exchange rate fluctuations and so are not directly calculable from the above rates. Constant currency results, where presented, also exclude the foreign currency gain or loss. The end-of-period and approximate average exchange rates for each applicable currency as




compared to U.S. dollars as of and for the three and nine months ended June 30 were as follows:

* During the first quarter of fiscal 2020, we revised the financial information our chief operating decision maker (our chief executive officer) reviews for operational decision-making purposes to include the separate financial results of our Lana business. Our historical segment results have been recast to conform to current presentation including the removal of discretionary strategic investment in digital platform costs in historically adjusted results. We additionally recast certain other adjustments to conform to restated historical results.
