Reported Q2 revenues and earnings, exited from unsecured consumer lending operations, and added 91 stores year-to-date through new openings and acquisitions.
Key Takeaways
FirstCash reported a decrease in diluted earnings per share due to COVID-19 impacts, lower foreign exchange rates, and the wind-down of consumer lending operations. However, retail sales were robust in the U.S., and cash flows were strong, allowing for debt reduction and continued investments in store growth.
Diluted earnings per share decreased 18% on a GAAP basis and 24% on an adjusted non-GAAP basis compared to the prior-year quarter.
Pawn fee revenues declined 26% due to COVID-19 related impact on lending demand.
Net income totaled $26 million on both a GAAP and adjusted non-GAAP basis.
Adjusted free cash flow was a record $182 million for the quarter.
