Provides Information on Impact of Stock-Based Compensation Expensing BEAUMONT, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 31, 2006--Conn's, Inc. (NASDAQ/NM:CONN), a specialty retailer of home appliances, consumer electronics, computers, lawn and garden products, furniture and mattresses, adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123R, Stock-Based Compensation, which now requires the use of fair-value-based methods of accounting for stock-based compensation. In an effort to enhance comparability of current and prior year financial data, the Company elected to use the modified retrospective application transition, which results in the retrospective adjustment of all prior period financial statements. Attached with this press release are the statements of operations for the fiscal years ended January 31, 2005 and 2006, and for the four quarters in fiscal year 2006 retrospectively adjusted for stock-based compensation expense. Additionally, the effect on fiscal year 2007 earnings per diluted share as a result of the adoption of FAS 123R is estimated to be approximately $0.06. About Conn's, Inc. The Company is a specialty retailer currently operating 58 retail locations in Texas and Louisiana. It sells major home appliances, including refrigerators, freezers, washers, dryers and ranges, and a variety of consumer electronics, including projection, plasma, LCD and DLP televisions, camcorders, DVD players and home theater products. The Company also sells computers, lawn and garden products, mattresses and furniture, and continues to introduce additional product categories for the home to help increase same store sales and to respond to our customers' product needs. Unlike many of its competitors, the Company provides in-house credit options for its customers. Historically, it has financed over 57% of retail sales. Customer receivables are financed substantially through an asset-backed securitization facility, from which the Company derives servicing fee income and interest income from these assets. The Company transfers receivables, consisting of retail installment contracts and revolving accounts extended to its customers, to a qualifying special purpose entity in exchange for cash and subordinated securities represented by asset-backed and variable funding notes issued to third parties.
