CEO COMMENTARY AND OUTLOOK
Lachie Given, Chief Executive Officer, stated, “This quarter showcased continued strong momentum in our business, disciplined execution from our team, and the scalability of our platform. We delivered record Q3 revenue and achieved all-time high PLO as demand remains strong for immediate cash solutions and secondhand goods. When combined with meaningful efficiency gains throughout the organization, we turned top-line momentum into exceptional earnings growth, as reflected by a 42% increase in adjusted EBITDA and 36% growth in diluted EPS.
“During the quarter, we grew our footprint by 52 stores, including 49 in LatAm and 3 in the US, 1 of which is a luxury store in Miami Beach. We continue to focus on strategic expansion to scale our business, as well as exceptional operating performance across geographies. In the U.S., disciplined expense management and store level execution drove a 32% increase in segment contribution. In Latin America, we delivered over 30% growth in contribution on a constant currency basis, resulting from both organic growth and a partial quarter benefit from acquired stores.
“Our recently strengthened balance sheet with $472 million in liquidity enables us to fund accelerated growth, organically and through strategic acquisitions. Our pipeline of M&A prospects is compelling, and we are ideally positioned to capitalize on attractive scale opportunities. Looking ahead, we remain highly focused on disciplined capital allocation, operational excellence, and delivering long-term value for our shareholders.”

Merchandise sales gross margin remained consistent at 36%. Aged general merchandise improved to 2.3% of total general merchandise inventory, down 83 basis points.

Cash and cash equivalents at the end of the quarter was $472.1 million, up from $170.5 million as of September 30, 2024. The increase was due primarily to $300.0 million (less issuance costs) from the issuance of the Senior Notes due 2032 offset by an increase in earning assets.
SEGMENT RESULTS

PLO ended the quarter at $221.1 million, an increase of 11% on a total and same-store basis due to increase in average loan size, strong loan demand and improved operational performance.
Total revenues increased 11% and gross profit increased 12%, driven by increased PSC, merchandise sales and scrap sales.
PSC increased 8% as a result of higher average PLO, partially offset by lower PLO yield.

Aged general merchandise decreased by 260 basis points to 2.5%, or $1.2 million of total general merchandise inventory. Excluding our Max Pawn luxury stores, aged general merchandise was 1.8%.

Store expenses increased 1% (12% increase on a constant currency basis) and decreased 3% on a same-store basis (7% increase on a constant currency basis). The constant currency increase was due primarily to increased labor, in line with store activity and minimum wage increases.
Segment contribution increased 20% to $12.4 million (30% on a constant currency basis to $13.5 million).

Non-GAAP Financial Information (Unaudited)
In addition to the financial information prepared in conformity with accounting U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), we provide certain other non-GAAP financial information on a constant currency (“constant currency”) and adjusted basis. We use constant currency results to evaluate our Latin America Pawn operations, which are denominated primarily in Mexican pesos, Guatemalan quetzales and other Latin American currencies. We believe that presentation of constant currency and adjusted results is meaningful and useful in understanding the activities and business metrics of our operations and reflects an additional way of viewing aspects of our business that, when viewed with GAAP results, provides 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 primarily 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. In addition, we have an equity method investment that is denominated in Australian dollars and is translated into U.S. dollars. We used the end-of-period rate for balance sheet items and the average closing daily exchange rate on a monthly basis during the appropriate period for statement of operations items. 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, 2025 and 2024 were as follows:
June 30, | Three Months Ended | Nine Months Ended | ||||||||||
2025 | 2024 | 2025 | 2024 | 2025 | 2024 | |||||||
Mexican peso | 18.8 | 18.3 | 19.5 | 17.2 | 20.0 | 17.3 | ||||||
Guatemalan quetzal | 7.6 | 7.6 | 7.6 | 7.6 | 7.6 | 7.6 | ||||||
Honduran lempira | 25.8 | 24.3 | 25.7 | 24.3 | 25.2 | 24.3 | ||||||
Australian dollar | 1.5 | 1.5 | 1.6 | 1.5 | 1.6 | 1.5 | ||||||
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.
