CAUTIONARY NOTE CONCERNING FACTORS THAT MAY AFFECT FUTURE RESULTS

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 Cash America 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:

• risks related to the regulation of the Company, such as the failure to comply with existing, the adoption of new, or adverse changes in the interpretation or enforcement of laws, rules, regulations and guidance, the regulatory and examination authority of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (“CFPB”), and the effect of and compliance with enforcement actions, orders and agreements issued by applicable regulators, such as a consent order the Company entered into with the CFPB in November 2013;

• accounting and income tax risks related to goodwill and other intangible asset impairment, certain tax positions taken by the Company and other accounting matters that require the judgment of management;

• the Company’s ability to attract and retain qualified executive officers, including a new Chief Executive Officer upon the retirement of the Company’s current Chief Executive Officer;

• the effect of any current or future litigation proceedings, including an unfavorable outcome in an outstanding lawsuit relating to the Company’s 5.75% Senior Notes due 2018 even though the Company believes the lawsuit is without merit and will vigorously defend its position, and any judicial decisions or rule-making that affects the Company, its products or the legality or enforceability of its arbitration agreements;

• decreased demand for the Company’s products and services and changes in competition;

• fluctuations in the price of gold and changes in economic conditions;

• public perception of the Company’s business and the Company’s business practices;

• risks related to the Company’s financing, such as compliance with financial covenants in the Company’s debt agreements or the Company’s ability to satisfy its outstanding debt obligations, to refinance existing debt obligations or to obtain new capital;

• risks related to interruptions to the Company’s business operations, such as a prolonged interruption in the Company’s operations of its facilities, systems or business functions, cyber-attacks or security breaches or the actions of third parties who provide, acquire or offer products and services to, from or for the Company;

• risks related to the expansion and growth of the Company’s business, including the Company’s ability to open new locations in accordance with plans or to successfully integrate newly acquired businesses into its operations;

• risks related to the spin-off of the Company’s former online lending business that comprised its e-commerce division, Enova International, Inc.;

• fluctuations in the price of the Company’s common stock;

• the effect of any of the above changes on the Company’s business or the markets in which the Company operates; and

• other risks and uncertainties described in this report or from time to time in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

The foregoing list of factors should not be construed as exhaustive and should be read together with the other cautionary statements included in this quarterly report, including under the caption “Risk Factors” in Item 1A of this quarterly report. In addition, new factors may emerge or changes to these factors may occur that would impact the Company’s business. Additional information regarding these and other risks can be found in this quarterly report and may also be contained in the Company’s other filings with the SEC, especially on Forms 10-K, 10-Q and 8-K. 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 those the Company anticipates. 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 are expressly qualified in their entirety by the foregoing cautionary statements.

CASH AMERICA INTERNATIONAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

1. Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements include all of the accounts of Cash America International, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions other than those related to Enova International, Inc. (“Enova”), which previously comprised the Company’s e-commerce segment (as discussed further below), have been eliminated in consolidation. Upon completion of the distribution of approximately 80% of the outstanding shares of Enova common stock to the Company’s shareholders on November 13, 2014 (“Enova Spin-off”), the Company reclassified Enova’s financial results to discontinued operations in the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2014 and for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2014. Intercompany accounts and transactions related to Enova are presented separately between the Company’s continuing and discontinued operations. These accounts and transactions were previously eliminated in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. This presentation detail is included in the financial statements due to the significance of these accounts and transactions. The specific elements are reflected in “Interest income,” “Interest income from note receivable,” “Proceeds from note receivable” and “Dividends received” in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. These reclassifications had no impact on consolidated results previously reported. See Note 2 for further discussion of discontinued operations.

Unless stated otherwise, the discussion of the Company’s business and financial information throughout this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q refers to the Company’s continuing operations and results from continuing operations.

The financial statements presented as of June 30, 2015 and 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. The consolidated balance sheet data as of December 31, 2014 included herein was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”). 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.

The Company has one reportable operating segment, which consists of the Company’s operations. The Company’s primary line of business is pawn lending. A related activity of the pawn lending operations is the disposition of collateral from forfeited pawn loans and the liquidation of a smaller volume of merchandise purchased directly from customers or from third parties. Another component of the Company’s business is originating, arranging, guaranteeing or purchasing consumer loans in some of its locations. The Company also offers check cashing services through its franchised check cashing centers and some Company-owned lending locations, in addition to offering debit cards, which are issued and serviced by a third party, through some of its Company-owned lending locations. In July 2015, the Company ceased offering certain ancillary products and services, including money orders, wire transfers and auto insurance. Because the Company has only one reportable segment, all required financial segment information can be found directly in the consolidated financial statements. The Company evaluates the performance of its reportable segment based on income from operations.

These financial statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.

Goodwill and Other Indefinite Lived Intangible Assets

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 and is not amortized. In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 350-20-35, Goodwill—Subsequent Measurement (“ASC 350”), 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 of a reporting unit below its carrying amount, which would result in impairment. The Company has one reportable operating segment, which serves as the only reporting unit for goodwill assessment.

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’s reporting unit that are discounted using a market participant perspective to determine the fair value of the reporting unit, which is then compared to the carrying value of the reporting unit 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 for the Company’s reporting unit exceeded its carrying value, and, as a result, no impairment was indicated at that date. Therefore, the Company was not required to compare the fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill with the carrying amount of that goodwill in order to determine the amount of a goodwill impairment. As of June 30, 2015, the excess fair value over the carrying value was 9% and represented an increase from 3% as of December 31, 2014, which was shortly after the Enova Spin-off in November 2014. A change in calculation assumptions, such as an increase in the weighted-average cost of capital, would cause the carrying value of the reporting unit to exceed its fair value as of June 30, 2015, which would have resulted in an impairment loss. If all assumptions were held constant, a one percentage point increase in the weighted average cost of capital would have decreased the estimated fair value of the reporting unit to approximately $28.9 million below the carrying value, which would have required the Company to perform additional analysis in accordance with ASC 350 to determine if an impairment existed and could have resulted in an impairment loss.

As part of the goodwill assessment, the Company also considers market capitalization, which is the observable market value of the Company based on the quoted market prices of the Company’s common stock. The Company compares the market capitalization to its carrying value of equity. As of June 30, 2015, the Company’s market capitalization was observed to be lower than the carrying value of equity, although the market capitalization had increased since the Company’s goodwill assessment as of December 31, 2014, which was shortly after the Enova Spin-off in November 2014. The Company believes the observable market value at June 30, 2015 is not a reliable indicator of the Company’s fair value due to the Enova Spin-off, the continued transition of a significant number of investors due to the magnitude of the Enova Spin-off, and the disruption of the Company’s share price following that event. Management believes this disruption is temporary but acknowledges the need to monitor and re-evaluate any future discrepancies between these values and consider the implications for an impairment of goodwill in future periods.

The Company is considered to be at risk for a future impairment of its goodwill in the event of a decline in general economic, market or business conditions or any significant unfavorable changes in the Company’s forecasted revenue, expenses, cash flows, weighted-average cost of capital and/or market transaction multiples. Any of these factors could represent a potential triggering event that would indicate an impairment review should be performed. The Company will continue to monitor for events and circumstances that could negatively impact the key assumptions in determining its fair value.

The Company also performed its annual indefinite-lived intangible asset impairment test as of June 30, 2015. The Company’s indefinite-lived intangible assets consist of trademarks, trade names and licenses and had a carrying amount of $15.0 million as of June 30, 2015. The Company elected to perform a qualitative assessment in

accordance with Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2012-02, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment, and determined that no conditions existed that would make it more likely than not that the indefinite-lived intangible assets were impaired. Therefore, no further quantitative assessment was required.

Accounting Standards to be Adopted in Future Periods

In April 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2015-05, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer’s Accounting for Fees Paid in a Cloud Computing Arrangement (“ASU 2015-05”), which defines specific criteria that entities must apply to determine if a cloud computing arrangement includes an in-substance software license. The result of the assessment will direct the entity to apply either software licensing or service contract guidance to record the related fees. ASU 2015-05 is effective for annual periods, including interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2015 and can be prospectively or retrospectively applied. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect that the adoption of ASU 2015-05 will have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, Interest—Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs (“ASU 2015-03”), which requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the related debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. ASU 2015-03 applies to all business entities and 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 does not expect that the adoption of ASU 2015-03 will have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU 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 does not expect that the adoption of ASU 2015-02 will have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) Section A—Summary and Amendments That Create Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) and Other Assets and Deferred Costs—Contracts with Customers (Subtopic 340-40) (“ASU 2014-09”), which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in ASC 605. ASU 2014-09 requires entities to recognize revenue in a way that depicts 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 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. In July 2015, the FASB affirmed its proposal to defer the effective date of ASU 2014-09 by one year. For public business entities, ASU 2014-09 will now be effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted at, but not before, the original effective date, which is for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2016. Entities are permitted to apply ASU 2014-09 either retrospectively or through an alternative transition model. The Company is still assessing the potential impact of ASU 2014-09 on its consolidated financial statements.

3. Credit Quality Information on Pawn Loans

In its pawn loan portfolio, the Company monitors the type and adequacy of collateral compared to historical forfeiture rates, average loan amounts and gross profit margins, among other factors. If a pawn loan defaults, the Company relies on the disposition of forfeited merchandise to recover the principal amount of an unpaid pawn loan, plus a yield on the investment, because the Company’s pawn loans are non-recourse against the customer. In addition, the customer’s creditworthiness does not affect the Company’s financial position or results of operations. Generally, forfeited merchandise has historically sold for an amount in excess of the carrying value of the merchandise. Goods pledged to secure pawn loans are tangible personal property items such as jewelry, tools, televisions and other electronics, musical instruments and other miscellaneous items.

A pawn loan is considered delinquent if the customer does not repay or, where allowed by law, renew or extend the loan on or prior to its contractual maturity date plus any applicable grace period. Therefore, the balance of “Pawn loans” in the consolidated balance sheets includes delinquent loans that are in the process of being moved to merchandise held for disposition but have not yet been transferred. Pawn loan fees and service charges do not accrue on delinquent pawn loans. When a pawn loan is considered delinquent, any accrued pawn loan fees and service charges are reversed and no additional pawn loan fees and service charges are accrued. As of June 30, 2015 and 2014 and December 31, 2014, the Company had current pawn loans outstanding of $239.2 million, $254.2 million and $244.1 million, respectively, and delinquent pawn loans outstanding of $8.2 million, $9.5 million and $8.0 million, respectively.

4. Consumer Loans, Credit Quality Information on Consumer Loans, Allowance and Liability for Estimated Losses on Consumer Loans and Guarantees of Consumer Loans

Current and Delinquent Consumer Loans

The Company classifies its consumer loans 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. Installment loans are considered delinquent when a customer misses two payments. The Company allows for normal payment processing time before considering a loan delinquent but does not provide for any additional grace period.

The Company generally does not accrue interest on delinquent consumer loans. In addition, delinquent consumer loans generally may not be renewed, and if, during its attempt to collect on a delinquent consumer 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 Consumer Loans

The Company monitors the performance of its consumer loan portfolio and maintains either an allowance or liability for estimated losses on consumer loans (including earned fees and interest) at a level estimated to be adequate to absorb credit losses inherent in the portfolio. The allowance for estimated losses on the Company’s owned consumer loans reduces the outstanding loan balance in the consolidated balance sheets. The liability for estimated losses related to loans guaranteed under the Company’s credit services organization and credit access business programs (“CSO programs”) is included in “Accounts payable and accrued expenses” in the consolidated balance sheets. Increases or decreases in the allowance and the liability for estimated losses are reduced by charge-offs and increased by recoveries and recorded as “Consumer loan loss provision” in the consolidated statements of income.

In determining the allowance or liability for estimated losses on consumer loans, the Company applies a documented systematic methodology. In calculating the allowance or liability for loan losses, outstanding loans are divided into discrete groups of short-term loans and installment loans and are analyzed as current or delinquent.

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 installment loans, 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 or charges off consumer loans once the loan has been classified as delinquent for 60 days. If a loan is estimated to be uncollectible before it is fully reserved, it is charged off at that point. Consumer loans classified as delinquent generally have an age of one to 59 days from the date the loan became delinquent, as defined above. Recoveries on loans previously charged to the allowance, including the sale of delinquent loans to unaffiliated third parties, are credited to the allowance when collected or when sold to a third party.

5. Investment in Enova

Upon completion of the Enova Spin-off, the Company retained approximately 20 percent, or 6,596,927 shares of Enova common stock, and the Company has agreed, pursuant to a private letter ruling it obtained in connection with the Enova Spin-off, to dispose of its retained shares of Enova common stock (other than the shares retained for delivery under the Company’s long-term incentive plans (the “LTIPs”) as described below) no later than two years after the date of the Enova Spin-off. Of the 6,521,463 shares owned at June 30, 2015, the Company has allocated 556,990 of its retained shares for delivery under the LTIPs that existed prior to the Enova Spin-off, making the Company’s residual ownership in Enova approximately 18 percent of the outstanding Enova common stock as of June 30, 2015. See table below for additional information.

All of the retained shares of Enova common stock (including shares retained for delivery under the Company’s LTIPs as described below) are classified as “available-for-sale securities” in accordance with ASC 320, Investments-Debt and Equity Securities (“ASC 320”). The Company does not account for its investment in Enova common stock under the equity method for the following reasons. The Company does not have the ability to significantly influence the strategy or the operating or financial policies of Enova. The Company does not share employees or management with Enova and does not participate in any policy-making process of Enova. The Company does not have the right to vote on matters put before Enova stockholders as it has granted Enova a proxy to vote its shares in the same proportion as the other stockholders of Enova on all such matters. In addition, the Company has agreed to divest its ownership in Enova within two years following the Enova Spin-off. While the Company’s Chief Executive Officer serves as one of seven members of Enova’s Board of Directors, he does not serve on any committees of Enova’s Board of Directors, and the Company is not able to influence his future election to Enova’s Board of Directors because it does not have voting power with respect to the shares of Enova that it owns. The Company also does not have any material business relationships with Enova.

The retained shares of Enova common stock include a portion of shares of Enova common stock that may be delivered by the Company to holders of certain outstanding unvested restricted stock units (“RSUs”), vested deferred RSUs, and unvested deferred RSUs that were granted by the Company under the LTIPs to certain of its officers, directors and employees, as well as shares that are deliverable to certain directors who have elected to defer a portion of their director fees to be paid in the form of common stock of the Company (“Director Deferred Shares”), if such equity awards and Director Deferred Shares were outstanding under the LTIPs on the date of the Enova Spin-off.

Such RSU awards and Director Deferred Shares will be payable by the Company in both shares of Company common stock and Enova common stock, subject to the terms of the LTIPs and/or the applicable award agreement. The delivery of the Enova shares of common stock will occur periodically based on the vesting or deferral terms that are applicable to the RSU awards or Director Deferred Shares. In the event the award does not vest, the Enova shares will be retained by the Company and sold.

Domestic and Multi-Currency Line

The Company and its domestic subsidiaries as guarantors have a credit agreement with a syndicate of financial institutions as lenders that was entered into on March 30, 2011 and later amended (the “Credit Agreement”). The Credit Agreement provides for a domestic and multi-currency line of credit in an aggregate principal amount of up to $280.0 million permitting revolving credit loans, including a multi-currency subfacility that gives the Company the ability to borrow up to $50.0 million that may be in specified foreign currencies, subject to the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement (the “Domestic and Multi-currency Line of Credit”). The Credit Agreement contains an accordion feature whereby the revolving line of credit may be increased up to an additional $100.0 million with the consent of any increasing lenders.

Interest on the Domestic and Multi-currency Line of Credit is 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 2.00% to 3.25% or at the agent’s base rate plus a margin varying from 0.50% to 1.75%. The margin for the Domestic and Multi-currency Line of Credit is dependent on the Company’s cash flow leverage ratios as defined in the Credit Agreement. The Company also pays a fee on the unused portion of the Domestic and Multi-currency Line of Credit ranging from 0.25% to 0.50% (0.25% as of June 30, 2015) based on the Company’s cash flow leverage ratios.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (Continued)

The Company had no borrowings outstanding under the Domestic and Multi-currency Line of Credit as of June 30, 2015 and 2014 and December 31, 2014. The Company may routinely refinance its borrowings pursuant to the terms of its Domestic and Multi-currency Line of Credit. Therefore, these borrowings would be considered part of the applicable line of credit and as long-term debt.

Letter of Credit Facility

When the Company entered into the Credit Agreement, it also entered into a Standby Letter of Credit Agreement (the “LC Agreement”) for the issuance of up to $20.0 million in letters of credit (the “Letter of Credit Facility”) that is guaranteed by the Company’s domestic subsidiaries and matures on March 31, 2018. In the event that an amount is paid by the issuing bank under a stand-by letter of credit, it will be due and payable by the Company on demand, and amounts due by the Company under the LC Agreement will bear interest annually at a rate that is the lesser of (a) 2% above the prime rate for Wells Fargo Bank, National Association or (b) the maximum rate of interest permissible under applicable laws. The LC Agreement also requires the Company to pay quarterly fees equal to the applicable margin set forth in the LC Agreement on the undrawn amount of the credit outstanding. The Company had standby letters of credit of $9.5 million under its Letter of Credit Facility as of June 30, 2015.

$300.0 million 5.75% Senior Unsecured Notes

On May 15, 2013, the Company issued and sold $300.0 million in aggregate principal amount of the 2018 Senior Notes. The 2018 Senior Notes bear interest at a rate of 5.75% annually on the principal amount, payable semi-annually in arrears on May 15 and November 15 of each year. The 2018 Senior Notes will mature on May 15, 2018, and there are no scheduled payments of principal due before the maturity date. The 2018 Senior Notes were sold to qualified institutional buyers in accordance with Rule 144A under 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 purchasers when the 2018 Senior Notes were issued, the Company completed an exchange offer with respect to the 2018 Senior Notes in January 2014. All of the unregistered 2018 Senior Notes have been exchanged for identical new notes registered under the Securities Act.

The 2018 Senior Notes are senior unsecured debt obligations of the Company and are guaranteed by all of the Company’s subsidiaries (the “Guarantors”). The Guarantors have guaranteed fully and unconditionally, on a joint and several basis, the obligations to pay principal and interest for the 2018 Senior Notes. As of June 30, 2015, Cash America International, Inc., on a stand-alone unconsolidated basis (the “Parent Company”), had no independent assets or operations. As of June 30, 2015, the Guarantors represent all of the subsidiaries of the Company, and all of the Guarantors were 100% owned by the Company. The domestic Guarantors under the 2018 Senior Notes are also guarantors under the Credit Agreement. The Indenture, dated as of May 15, 2013, that governs the 2018 Senior Notes, among the Company, the guarantors party thereto and the trustee (“2018 Senior Notes Indenture”), provides that if any of the Guarantors is released from its guarantees of the Company’s borrowings and obligations under the Credit Agreement, that Guarantor’s guaranty of the 2018 Senior Notes will also be released.

The 2018 Senior Notes are redeemable at the Company’s option, in whole or in part, at any time at 100% of the aggregate principal amount of 2018 Senior Notes redeemed plus the applicable “make whole” redemption price specified in the 2018 Senior Notes Indenture, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the redemption date. In addition, if a change of control occurs, as that term is defined in the 2018 Senior Notes Indenture, the holders of 2018 Senior Notes will have the right, subject to certain conditions, to require the Company to repurchase their 2018 Senior Notes at a purchase price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of 2018 Senior Notes repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, as of the date of repurchase.

As of June 30, 2015, the outstanding balance of the 2018 Senior Notes was $184.5 million, compared to $300.0 million as of June 30, 2014. For the three months ended June 30, 2015, the Company repurchased $12.0 million principal amount of the 2018 Senior Notes for cash consideration of $12.4 million. In connection with these purchases, the Company recorded a loss on early extinguishment of debt of approximately $0.6 million, which

16

CASH AMERICA INTERNATIONAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (Continued)

consisted of $0.4 million in premium paid and $0.2 million in expense for the write-off of deferred loan costs. The loss is included in “Loss on early extinguishment of debt” in the consolidated statements of income.

Debt Agreement Compliance

The debt agreements for the Domestic and Multi-currency Line of Credit and the 2018 Senior Notes require the Company to maintain certain financial ratios. As ofJune 30, 2015, the Company believes it was in compliance with all covenants or other requirements set forth in its debt agreements.

On June 26, 2015, Wilmington Savings Fund Society, FSB, as trustee (the “Trustee”) under the 2018 Senior Notes Indenture that governs the 2018 Senior Notes, filed a lawsuit against the Company in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. The lawsuit alleges that the Enova Spin-off was not permitted by the 2018 Senior Notes Indenture, and the Trustee is seeking a remedy equal to principal and accrued and unpaid interest, plus a make-whole premium, to be paid to the holders of the 2018 Senior Notes. The Company disagrees with the assertion in the lawsuit that the Enova Spin-off was not permitted under the 2018 Senior Notes Indenture. The Company also disagrees that a make-whole premium would be due to the holders of the 2018 Senior Notes even if it is determined that the Enova Spin-off was not permitted under the 2018 Senior Notes Indenture. The Company believes the position taken by the Trustee is without merit, and the Company intends to vigorously defend its position. Regardless of the outcome of this claim, the Company has ample liquidity and capital resources to sustain its ongoing operations and to repay the 2018 Senior Notes, including any make-whole premium on the 2018 Senior Notes, if such a premium were to be finally determined to be payable, notwithstanding the Company’s belief that such a premium is not payable. The Company’s sources of liquidity include availability under the Domestic and Multi-currency Line of Credit, which had $280.0 million in availability and was undrawn as of June 30, 2015. As of June 30, 2015, the Company had no outstanding indebtedness other than the $184.5 million in aggregate principal amount of 2018 Senior Notes outstanding.

7. Equity

Accelerated Share Repurchase Program

On January 28, 2015, the Board of Directors of the Company authorized a new share repurchase program for the repurchase of up to 4.0 million shares of the Company’s common stock (the “2015 Authorization”) and canceled the Company’s previous share repurchase authorization from January 2013 (the “2013 Authorization”). During the six months ended June 30, 2015, the Company purchased 2,332,230 shares under the 2015 Authorization for a total investment of $57.0 million, including commissions. This included the purchase of 1,648,000 shares in open market transactions, in addition to 684,230 shares under an accelerated share repurchase (“ASR”) agreement.

In May 2015, the Company entered into an ASR agreement with a financial institution. Under the ASR agreement, the Company paid$22.0 million in cash to the financial institution on May 14, 2015 and received an initial delivery of684,230shares that were valued at$18.7 million, based on the then-current market price of the Company’s stock. The payment to the financial institution was recorded as two separate transactions: an initial treasury stock transaction and a forward contract indexed to the Company’s common stock. The initial treasury stock transaction was recorded as an $18.7 million increase in treasury shares. The ASR forward contract was recorded as a $3.3 million decrease to additional paid-in capital and reflects the estimated value of stock to be delivered upon final settlement. The initial delivery of shares resulted in an immediate reduction of the outstanding shares used to calculate the weighted average common shares outstanding for basic and diluted earnings per share.

Final settlement of the ASR agreement is expected to take place in the third quarter of 2015. The number of shares of the Company’s common stock that the Company may receive, or may be required to remit, upon settlement under the ASR agreement will be based on the average daily volume weighted average price, less an agreed upon discount, of the Company’s common stock during the duration of the ASR agreement. The terms of the ASR agreement are subject to change if the Company were to enter into or announce certain types of transactions. If

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (Continued)

the Company is obligated to make an adjustment payment to the financial institution upon settlement of the ASR agreement, the Company may elect to satisfy its obligation in cash or in shares of the Company’s common stock.

Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income

The reclassification adjustments from accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”) to net income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 were as follows (dollars in thousands):

8. Net Income Per Share

Basic net income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income 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. When a net loss exists, all potentially dilutive securities are anti-dilutive and are therefore excluded from the diluted per-share computation.

RSUs issued under the Company’s stock-based employee compensation plans are included in diluted shares from the grant date of the award. The dilutive effect of performance-based RSU awards is adjusted at each balance sheet date throughout the requisite service period based on the level of performance that management estimates is the most probable at that date.

^(b)  On May 15, 2014, the Company called its outstanding 5.25% Convertible Senior Notes due May 15, 2029 that were issued and sold by the Company on May 19, 2009 (the “2029 Convertible Notes”), and the noteholders elected to convert such notes. The Company settled the principal portion of the outstanding 2029 Convertible Notes in cash and issued 747,085 of the Company’s common shares related to the conversion spread. Prior to the repayment of the 2029 Convertible Notes, only the shares related to the conversion spread, not the shares related to the principal payment, were included in weighted average diluted shares because the Company intended to pay the principal portion of the notes in cash.

^(c)  Excludes 117 and 7 anti-dilutive shares for the three months ended June 30,2015 and 2014, respectively, and excludes 239 and 13 anti-dilutive shares for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Anti-dilutive shares for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 includes certain shares applicable to stock-based compensation and potential shares to be delivered to the Company upon settlement of the ASR agreement. When a net loss exists, all potentially dilutive securities are anti-dilutive and are therefore excluded from the dilutive per-share computation.

^(d)  Earnings per share amounts included in this information may not sum due to rounding differences.

10. Fair Value Measurements

Recurring Fair Value Measurements

In accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”), 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, other than Level 1, or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data.

CASH AMERICA INTERNATIONAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (Continued)

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):

Investment in equity securities	131,584		—		131,584		—
Total	$	144,422	$	12,259	$	132,163	$	—

Nonqualified Savings Plan-related assets and Deferred Director Shares have an offsetting liability of equal amount, which is included in “Accounts payable and accrued expenses” in the consolidated balance sheets. The Nonqualified Savings Plan-related assets include marketable equity securities, which are classified as Level 1 and based on net asset values. As of June 30,2015, as a result of the Enova Spin-off, the portion of the Deferred Director Shares measured at fair value represented shares of Enova common stock. As of June 30,2015, the Company’s investment in equity securities represents the Company’s available-for-sale shares of Enova common stock that it retained in connection with the Enova Spin-off. See Note 5. The equity securities representing Enova stock, both those included in Deferred Director Shares and investment in equity securities in the table above, are classified as Level 2, as they were not yet registered securities with the SEC as of that date, and accordingly, were not carried at the fair value of the quoted Enova stock prices. The Company valued these shares using the market determined stock price of Enova, less an adjustment factor due to the unregistered nature of the shares.

During the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, there were no transfers of assets in or out of Level 1 or Level 2 fair value measurements.

Fair Value Measurements on a Non-Recurring Basis

The Company measures non-financial assets and liabilities such as property and equipment and intangible assets at fair value on a nonrecurring basis or when events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may be impaired.

Pawn loans generally have maturity periods of less than 90 days. Because of this short maturity period, the carrying value of pawn loans approximates the fair value of these loans.

Short-term loans and installment loans, collectively, represent “Consumer loans, net” on the consolidated balance sheet and are carried net of the allowance for estimated loan losses, which 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 approximates the fair value.

Pawn loan fees and service charges revenue and the related pawn loan fees and service charges receivable is accrued ratably over the term of the loan for the portion of those pawn loans estimated to be collectible. The Company uses historical performance data to determine the collectability of pawn loan fees and service charges receivable. Additionally, pawn loan fee and service charge rates are determined by regulations and bear no valuation relationship to the capital markets’ interest rate movements. Therefore, the carrying value approximates the fair value.

In connection with its CSO programs, the Company guarantees consumer loan payment obligations to unrelated third-party lenders for short-term loans, unsecured installment loans and installment loans secured by the customer’s vehicle and is required to purchase any defaulted loans it has guaranteed. 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 approximate the fair value.

The Company measures the fair value of long-term debt instruments using Level 2 inputs. The fair values of the Company’s long-term debt instruments are estimated based on market values for debt issues with similar characteristics or rates currently available for debt with similar terms. As of June 30, 2015, the 2018 Senior Notes had a higher fair market value than the carrying value due to the difference in yield when compared to recent issuances of similar senior unsecured notes.

11. Reorganization Expenses

In the third quarter of 2014, the Company initiated a reorganization to better align the corporate and operating cost structure with its remaining storefront operations after the Enova Spin-off (the “Reorganization”). The Reorganization continued through the first quarter of 2015. In connection with the Reorganization, the Company recognized aggregate expenses of $8.4 millionfor severance and other employee-related costs, of which$0.9 millionwas recognized as expense during the six months endedJune 30, 2015and is included in “Operations and administration” in the consolidated statements of income. As of June 30, 2015, the Company had made payments of approximately $7.0 million for the Reorganization and had accrued approximately $1.4 million for future payments. Accrued amounts for the Reorganization are included in “Accounts payable and accrued expenses” in the consolidated balance sheets.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

The following discussion of financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, capital resources and certain factors that may affect future results of Cash America International, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included under Part 1—Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as well as with the Company’s consolidated financial statements, accompanying notes and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.

GENERAL

The Company provides specialty financial services to individuals in the United States through its storefront lending locations and franchised check cashing centers. The Company has one reportable operating segment through which it offers all of its products and services, which are described below.

Pawn Lending

The Company offers secured non-recourse loans, commonly referred to as pawn loans, as its primary line of business. Pawn loans are short-term loans made on the pledge of tangible personal property. Pawn loan fees and service charges are generated from the Company’s pawn loan portfolio. In relation to the pawn lending operations, the Company also disposes of collateral from forfeited pawn loans and liquidates a smaller volume of merchandise purchased directly from customers or from third parties. The Company previously offered pawn loans in Mexico, but the Company sold its Mexico-based pawn operations in August 2014. Pawn-related net revenue accounted for 87.7% and 88.0% of consolidated net revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively.

Consumer Loan Activities

    Another component of the Company's business is originating, arranging, guaranteeing or purchasing consumer loans in some of its locations. Consumer loans provide customers with cash, typically in exchange for an obligation to repay the amount advanced plus fees and any applicable interest. Consumer loans include short-term loans (commonly referred to as payday loans) and installment loans. Consumer loan net revenue accounted for 11.1% and 10.8% of consolidated net revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively.

     Short-term consumer loans include unsecured short-term loans written by the Company or by a third-party lender through the Company’s credit services organization and credit access business programs (“CSO programs”), as further described below. Installment consumer loans are longer-term, multi-payment loans that require the pay-down of the outstanding principal balance in multiple installments and include both unsecured loans and loans secured by a customer’s vehicle. Installment loans can either be written by the Company or by a third-party lender through the CSO programs.

Through the Company’s CSO programs, the Company provides services and receives fees related to a third-party lender’s 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 the CSO programs include credit-related services such as arranging loans with independent third-party lenders (“CSO loans”). In addition, the Company guarantees consumer loan payment obligations to the third-party lender in the event that the customer defaults on the loan. CSO loans are not included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements, but the Company has established a liability for the estimated losses in support of the guarantee on these loans in its consolidated balance sheets. In the event that the customer defaults on a CSO loan, the Company purchases the specific loan, and the outstanding loan balance and related allowance for estimated losses is then included in “Consumer loans, net” in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

25

Check Cashing and Other Financial Services

Another small component of the Company's business includes the offering of check cashing services through its franchised check cashing centers and some Company-owned lending locations, in addition to offering debit cards, which are issued and serviced by a third party, in some of its lending locations. In July 2015, the Company ceased offering certain ancillary products and services including money orders, wire transfers and auto insurance. Net revenue from check cashing and other ancillary products and services accounted for less than 1% of consolidated net revenue for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2015.

Enova Spin-off

On November 13, 2014, the Company completed the distribution of approximately 80% of the outstanding shares of Enova International, Inc. (“Enova”) common stock to the Company’s shareholders (the “Enova Spin-off”). Enova previously comprised the Company’s e-commerce segment. Upon completion of the Enova Spin-off, the Company reclassified the financial results of Enova to discontinued operations in the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2014 and for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2014.

Unless stated otherwise, the discussion of the Company’s business and financial information throughout this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q refers to the Company’s continuing operations and results from continuing operations.

Locations

The following table sets forth the number of locations through which the Company offered pawn lending, consumer lending, and other services and franchised locations offering check cashing services as ofJune 30, 2015and2014. The Company provides these services in the United States primarily under the names “Cash America Pawn,” “SuperPawn,” “Cash America Payday Advance,” “Cashland” and “Mr. Payroll.” The Company’s domestic pawn and consumer lending locations operated in 20 and 22 states in the United States as of June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. As of both June 30, 2015 and 2014, the franchised check cashing centers operated in 12 states.

In the twelve months ended June 30, 2015, the Company closed or sold 90 locations. Consistent with the Company’s strategy to deemphasize its consumer lending activities, 28 of the locations closed or sold were locations that offered consumer loans as their primary product. The Company also exited the non-strategic markets of Mexico and Colorado, selling 47 and five locations, respectively. In addition, the Company closed or sold 10 domestic pawn-lending-only locations. The Company also eliminated the consumer loan product in 303 of its pawn lending locations over the twelve months ended June 30, 2015. For the six months ended June 30, 2015, the Company closed or sold 33 locations, of which 27 offered consumer loans as their primary product.

Recent Developments

Store and Office Closures

    In the first six months of 2015, the Company closed 22 store locations, mostly due to the Company’s continued de-emphasis of its consumer lending activities and efforts to eliminate less profitable lending locations, and the Company also closed certain regional office locations in order to create administrative expense efficiencies (collectively, the “Store and Office Closures”). In connection with the Store and Office Closures, the Company incurred $1.7 million of expenses, of which $1.1 million are included in “Operations and administration expenses” and $0.6 million are included in “Depreciation and amortization expenses” in the consolidated statement of income for the six months ended June 30, 2015. For the three months ended June 30, 2015, the Company incurred $1.1 million of expenses, of which $0.7 million are included in “Operations and administration expenses” and $0.4 million are included in “Depreciation and amortization expenses” in the consolidated statement of income.

Expansion of Military Lending Act Rules

In July 2015, the Department of Defense published a finalized set of new rules under the Military Lending Act. The Military Lending Act (and rules previously adopted thereunder) has previously restricted the Company from offering its short-term unsecured credit products to members of the military or their dependents because none of the Company’s short-term unsecured credit products carry a military annual percentage rate of 36% or less. The new rule expands the scope of the credit products covered by the Military Lending Act to include certain non-purchase money loans secured by personal property or vehicles and certain unsecured installment loan products to the extent any of such products have a military annual percentage rate greater than 36%. Because none of the Company’s pawn loans or secured or unsecured installment loans have a military annual percentage rate of 36% or less, once the new rule takes effect, the Company may not be able to offer any of its current credit products (including pawn loans) to members of the military or their dependents. As to the Company’s pawn loan and longer-term credit products, 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 or their dependents, the Company does not expect the new rule to have a material adverse impact on the Company’s financial condition or operating results once it goes into effect. See “Part II. Item 1A. Risk Factors—The adoption of new laws or regulations or adverse changes in, or the interpretation or enforcement of, existing laws or regulations affecting the Company’s products and services could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, prospects, results of operations, reputation, financial condition, cash flows or ability to continue current operations without any direct or indirect impairment or disruption” for additional information regarding the expanded rules under the Military Lending Act.

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 and Other Indefinite Lived Intangible Assets

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 (“ASC”) 350-20-35, Goodwill—Subsequent Measurement (“ASC 350”), 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 of a reporting unit below its carrying amount, which would result in impairment. The Company has one reportable operating segment, which serves as the only reporting unit for goodwill assessment.

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’s reporting unit that are discounted using a market participant perspective to determine the fair value of the reporting unit, which is then compared to the carrying value of the reporting unit 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 for the Company’s reporting unit exceeded its carrying value, and, as a result, no impairment was indicated at that date. Therefore, the Company was not required to compare the fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill with the carrying amount of that goodwill in order to determine the amount of a goodwill impairment. As of June 30, 2015, the excess fair value over the carrying value was 9% and represented an increase compared to 3% as of December 31, 2014, which was shortly after the Enova Spin-off in November 2014. A change in calculation assumptions, such as an increase in the weighted-average cost of capital, would cause the carrying value of the reporting unit to exceed its fair value as of June 30, 2015, which would have resulted in an impairment loss. If all assumptions were held constant, a one percentage point increase in the weighted average cost of capital would have decreased the estimated fair value of the reporting unit to approximately $28.9 million below the carrying value, which would have required the Company to perform additional analysis in accordance with ASC 350 to determine if an impairment existed and could have resulted in an impairment loss.

As part of the goodwill assessment, the Company also considers market capitalization, which is the observable market value of the Company based on the quoted market prices of the Company’s common stock. The Company compares the market capitalization to its carrying value of equity. As of June 30, 2015, the Company’s market capitalization was observed to be lower than the carrying value of equity, although the market capitalization had increased since the Company’s goodwill assessment as of December 31, 2014, which was shortly after the Enova Spin-off in November 2014. The Company believes the observable market value at June 30, 2015 is not a reliable indicator of the Company’s fair value due to the Enova Spin-off, the continued transition of a significant number of investors due to the magnitude of the Enova Spin-off, and the disruption of the Company’s share price following that event. Management believes this disruption is temporary but acknowledges the need to monitor and re-evaluate any future discrepancies between these values and consider the implications for an impairment of goodwill in future periods.

The Company is considered to be at risk for a future impairment of its goodwill in the event of a decline in general economic, market or business conditions or any significant unfavorable changes in the Company’s forecasted revenue, expenses, cash flows, weighted-average cost of capital and/or market transaction multiples. Any of these factors could represent a potential triggering event that would indicate an impairment review should be

28

performed. The Company will continue to monitor for events and circumstances that could negatively impact the key assumptions in determining its fair value.

The Company performed its annual indefinite-lived intangible asset impairment test as of June 30, 2015. The Company’s indefinite-lived intangible assets consist of trademarks, trade names, and licenses and had a carrying amount of $15.0 million as of June 30, 2015. The Company elected to perform a qualitative assessment in accordance with Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2012-02, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment, and determined that no conditions existed that would make it more likely than not that the indefinite-lived intangible assets were impaired. Therefore, no further quantitative assessment was required.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Highlights

The Company’s financial results for the three months ended June 30,2015 (the “current quarter”) compared to the three months ended June 30,2014 (the “prior year quarter”) are summarized below. The prior year quarter includes amounts related to the Company’s Mexico-based pawn operations, which were sold in August 2014.

• Total revenue was $236.5 million for the current quarter, representing a decrease of $17.1 million, or 6.8%, compared to the prior year quarter. Net revenue decreased$7.3 million, or 5.1%, to $134.0 million for the current quarter compared to the prior year quarter.

• Income from operations was $6.3 million for the current quarter, representing an increase of $3.0 million, or 88.5%, compared to the prior year quarter, primarily due to a 58% increase in domestic income from operations as a result of a decrease in operating and administration expenses. In addition, income from operations for the prior year quarter included a loss from the Company’s Mexico-based pawn operations.

• Net income from continuing operations was $2.1 million in the current quarter compared to a loss of $11.7 million in the prior year quarter. Diluted net income per share from continuing operations was $0.08 in the current quarter compared to diluted net loss per share of $0.41 in the prior year quarter. Net income and net income per share from continuing operations were affected by certain income and expense items in the current quarter and prior year quarter. See “Overview—Non-GAAP Disclosure—Adjusted Earnings Measures” for additional information.

OVERVIEW

Net Revenue

Net revenue is composed of total revenue less the cost of disposed merchandise and the consumer loan loss provision. Net revenue is the income available to satisfy all remaining expenses and is the measure management uses to evaluate top-line performance.

The following table shows the components of net revenue for the Company’s domestic operations for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015 and 2014 (dollars in thousands):

	Three Months Ended June 30,								Six Months Ended June 30,
	2015				2014(a)				2015				2014(a)
Domestic operations	Amount		% of Total		Amount		% of Total		Amount		% of Total		Amount		% of Total

^(a) Excludes amounts related to the Company’s Mexico-based pawn operations, which were sold in August 2014. For the three and six months endedJune 30, 2014, Mexico-based pawn operations had pawn loan fees and service charges of $2,079 and $3,799, proceeds from disposition of merchandise, net of cost of disposed merchandise, of $992 and $1,971, pawn-related net revenue of $3,071 and $5,770, other revenue of $45 and $130 and net revenue of $3,116 and $5,900, respectively.

30

For the current quarter, consolidated net revenue decreased$7.3 million, or 5.1%, compared to the prior year quarter. Excluding the Company’s Mexico-based pawn operations that were sold in August 2014, domestic net revenue decreased$4.1 million, or 3.0%, to $134.0 million from $138.1 million for the prior year quarter. Domestic pawn-related net revenue decreased$2.6 million, or 2.2%, to $117.5 million during the current quarter from the prior year quarter, primarily due to lower pawn loan fees and services charges as a result of lower average pawn loan balances, as well as lower gross profit on commercial sales of gold and diamonds, partially offset by higher gross profit on retail sales. Consumer loan net revenue decreased$1.2 million, or 7.2%, to $14.9 million during the current quarter, primarily due to the Company’s strategic decision to deemphasize and eliminate short-term consumer lending activities in many of its locations. Same-store net revenue for domestic locations decreased1.2% for the current quarter compared to the prior year quarter. Excluding gross profit on commercial sales, same-store net revenue for domestic locations increased 0.3% for the current quarter compared to the prior year quarter.

For the six months ended June 30, 2015 (the “current six-month period”), consolidated net revenue decreased$12.6 million, or 4.3%, compared to the same period in 2014 (the “prior year six-month period”). Excluding the Company’s Mexico-based pawn operations, domestic net revenue decreased$6.7 million, or 2.3%, to $281.1 million from $287.8 million for the prior year six-month period. Domestic pawn-related net revenue decreased$2.4 million, or 1.0%, to $247.2 million during the current six-month period from the prior year six-month period, primarily due to lower pawn loan fees and service charges as a result of lower average pawn loan balances, as well as lower gross profit on retail sales, partially offset by higher gross profit on commercial sales of gold and diamonds. Consumer loan net revenue decreased$3.8 million, or 11.1%, to $30.4 million during the current six-month period, primarily due to the Company’s strategic decision to deemphasize and eliminate short-term consumer lending activities in many of its locations.

Non-GAAP Disclosure

In addition to the financial information prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”), the Company has provided certain historical non-GAAP measures in the tables below, including (i) adjusted net income from continuing operations, adjusted diluted net income per share from continuing operations, adjusted earnings from continuing operations and adjusted earnings per share from continuing operations (collectively, the “Adjusted Earnings Measures”), and (ii) adjusted EBITDA, which the Company defines as earnings excluding depreciation, amortization, interest, foreign currency transaction gains or losses, loss on early extinguishment of debt, gain on disposition of equity securities and provision or benefit for income taxes.

Management believes that the presentation of these measures provides users of the financial statements with greater transparency and facilitates a more meaningful comparison of operating results across a broad spectrum of companies with varying capital structures, compensation strategies, derivative instruments and amortization methods. In addition, management believes this information provides a more in-depth and complete view of the Company’s financial performance, competitive position and prospects for the future and may highlight trends in the Company’s business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying on financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Management also believes that non-GAAP measures, including the Adjusted Earnings Measures and adjusted EBITDA, are frequently used by investors to analyze operating performance, evaluate the Company’s ability to incur and service debt and its capacity for making capital investments, and to help assess the Company’s estimated enterprise value.

31

For adjusted earnings from continuing operations and adjusted earnings per share from continuing operations, management excludes intangible asset amortization, non-cash equity-based compensation, convertible debt non-cash interest and issuance cost amortization, and foreign currency transaction gains or losses. In addition, management has determined that the adjustments to the Adjusted Earnings Measures and adjusted EBITDA, as applicable, included in the tables below are useful to investors in order to allow them to compare the Company’s financial results for the current quarter with the prior year quarter without the effect of the below items, which management believes are less frequent in nature:

• the expenses related to the Company’s reorganization to better align the corporate and operating cost structure with its remaining storefront operations after the Enova Spin-off (the “Reorganization”);

• the gain on disposition of equity securities;

• the gain or loss on significant divestitures;

• the loss on early extinguishment of debt;

• the charges related to the closure of 36 locations in Texas in 2013 that offered consumer loans as their primary source of revenue (the “Texas Consumer Loan Store Closures”);

• the adjustments for a penalty paid to the CFPB in connection with the issuance of a consent order by the CFPB in November 2013 (the “Regulatory Penalty”);

• charges related to a significant litigation settlement in 2013 (the “2013 Litigation Settlement”);

• an adjustment made in 2013 (the “Ohio Adjustment for the Ohio Reimbursement Program”) to decrease the Company’s remaining liability following an assessment of the claims made under a voluntary program initiated in 2012 to reimburse Ohio customers in connection with certain legal collections proceedings initiated by the Company in Ohio; and

• a recognized income tax benefit related to a tax deduction included on the Company’s 2013 federal income tax return for its tax basis in the stock of its subsidiary that previously owned its Mexico-based pawn operations, Creazione Estilo, S.A. de C.V., a Mexican sociedad anónima de capital variable(the “Creazione Deduction”).

Adjusted EBITDA is presented for the trailing twelve months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014. Therefore, certain adjusting items that occurred in the third and fourth quarters of 2014 and 2013 are presented in the adjusted EBITDA table.

Management believes the non-GAAP measures, including the adjustments described above, provide more meaningful information regarding the ongoing operating performance, provide more useful period-to-period comparisons of operating results, both internally and in relation to operating results of competitors, enhance investors' understanding of the core operating results of the business and provide a more accurate indication of the Company’s ability to generate cash flows from operations. Therefore, management believes it important to clearly identify these measures for investors.

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

QUARTER ENDED JUNE 30, 2015 COMPARED TO QUARTER ENDED JUNE 30, 2014

Pawn Lending Activities

On a consolidated basis, the average balance of pawn loans outstanding decreased $12.7 million, or 5.3%, from the prior year quarter to the current quarter, partly due to a $5.7 million decrease in the average balance outstanding related to the Company’s Mexico-based pawn operations, which were sold in August 2014. In addition, pawn loan fees and services charges decreased $4.1 million, or 5.1%, from the prior year quarter to the current quarter.     

The following table sets forth selected data related to the Company’s domestic pawn lending activities, excluding the Company’s Mexico-based pawn operations, as of and for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 (dollars in thousands except where otherwise noted):

	Three Months Ended June 30,
Domestic pawn operations	2015			2014(a)			$ Change			% Change
Pawn loan fees and service charges	$	76,899		$	78,911		$	(2,012	)	(2.5	)%
Ending pawn loan balance (as of June 30,)	$	247,381		$	257,647		$	(10,266	)	(4.0	)%
Average pawn loan balance outstanding	$	228,140		$	235,187		$	(7,047	)	(3.0	)%
Amount of pawn loans written and renewed	$	257,430		$	271,226		$	(13,796	)	(5.1	)%
Average amount per pawn loan (in ones)	$	124		$	123		$	1		0.8	%
Annualized yield on pawn loans	135.2		%	134.6		%

^(a) Excludes amounts related to the Company’s Mexico-based pawn operations, which were sold in August 2014. For the three months ended

June 30, 2014, Mexico-based pawn operations had pawn loan fees and service charges of $2,079, an ending pawn loan balance of $6,021, an average pawn loan balance outstanding of $5,683, pawn loans written and renewed of $15,909, an average amount per pawn loan of $88, and an annualized yield on pawn loans of 146.7%.

Average domestic pawn loan balances decreased $7.0 million, or 3.0%, to $228.1 million in the current quarter, compared to $235.2 million in the prior year quarter, primarily due to a decrease in the average pawn loan balance in same-store domestic pawn locations. Same-store domestic pawn loan balances were 2.7% lower at June 30, 2015 compared to June 30, 2014. Pawn loan balances at the beginning of the current quarter were below prior year levels and maintained this relationship throughout the current quarter.

Domestic pawn loan fees and service charges decreased by $2.0 million, or 2.5%, from the prior year quarter to the current quarter. This decrease was primarily driven by lower average domestic pawn loan balances during the current quarter as compared to the prior year quarter, partially offset by a slightly higher domestic pawn loan yield of 135.2% in the current quarter compared to 134.6% in the prior year quarter.

Merchandise Sales Activities

Proceeds from Disposition of Merchandise and Gross Profit

Profit from the disposition of merchandise represents the proceeds received from the disposition of merchandise in excess of the cost of disposed merchandise, which is generally the principal amount loaned on an item or the amount paid for purchased merchandise. Management separates proceeds from disposition of merchandise and gross profit on disposition of merchandise into two groups, retail sales and commercial sales. Retail sales include the sale of jewelry and general merchandise direct to consumers through the Company’s locations or over the internet through auction and other similar sites. Commercial sales include the sale of refined gold, diamonds, platinum, and silver to brokers or manufacturers.

On a consolidated basis, proceeds from disposition decreased$8.1 million, or 5.5%, from the prior year quarter to the current quarter. Gross profit on disposition decreased $1.6 million, or 3.8%, from the prior year quarter to the current quarter.

36

The following table summarizes the proceeds from the disposition of merchandise and the related profit for domestic pawn operations, excluding the Company’s Mexico-based pawn operations, for the current quarter and the prior year quarter (dollars in thousands):

	Three Months Ended June 30,
	2015									2014(a)
Domestic pawn operations	Retail			Commercial			Total			Retail			Commercial			Total
Proceeds from disposition	$	119,323		$	19,380		$	138,703		$	113,626		$	28,821		$	142,447
Gross profit on disposition	$	38,798		$	1,845		$	40,643		$	37,689		$	3,581		$	41,270
Gross profit margin	32.5		%	9.5		%	29.3		%	33.2		%	12.4		%	29.0		%
Percentage of total gross profit	95.5		%	4.5		%	100.0		%	91.3		%	8.7		%	100.0		%

^(a) Excludes amounts related to the Company’s Mexico-based pawn operations, which were sold in August 2014. For the three months ended June 30, 2014, Mexico-based pawn operations had proceeds from disposition of $4,325, gross profit on disposition of $992, and gross profit margin of 22.9%.

Proceeds from disposition for domestic pawn operations decreased$3.7 million, or 2.6%, from the prior year quarter to the current quarter, primarily due to a decrease in commercial proceeds from disposition of $9.4 million, or 32.8%, as a result of the Company’s continued emphasis on retail disposition in stores and efforts to place less reliance on the commercial disposition of merchandise. Retail proceeds from disposition increased$5.7 million, or 5.0%, primarily as a result of the Company’s emphasis on retail disposition activities in its storefront locations. The decreased emphasis on commercial disposition also contributed to the decrease in the Company’s merchandise turnover ratio from 2.2 times in the prior year quarter to 2.0 times in the current quarter, as routine and frequent commercial dispositions typically contribute to a higher turnover ratio.

Gross profit on disposition for domestic pawn operations decreased$0.6 million, or 1.5%, from the prior year quarter to the current quarter, primarily due to lower gross profit on commercial dispositions, mainly as a result of unfavorable diamond yields, partially offset by higher gross profit on retail dispositions as a result of the Company’s emphasis on retail disposition activities in its storefront locations. The Company experienced an increase in domestic gross profit margin to 29.3% in the current quarter, compared to 29.0% in the prior year quarter, primarily due to the increase in retail gross profit as a percentage of total gross profit, although the retail gross profit margin decreased to 32.5% in the current quarter, compared to 33.2% in the prior year quarter, primarily due to the Company’s emphasis on the retail disposition of general merchandise items, including the discounting of electronics inventory.

The table below summarizes the age of merchandise held for disposition related to the Company’s domestic pawn lending operations before valuation allowance of$2.6 million, $2.0 million and $2.4 million as of June 30, 2015 and 2014, and December 31, 2014, respectively (dollars in thousands):

	As of June 30,								As of December 31,

Merchandise held for disposition, net of allowance	$	203,006			$	192,745			$	212,849

^(a) Excludes amounts related to the Company’s Mexico-based pawn operations, which were sold in August 2014. As of June 30, 2014, Mexico-based pawn operations had gross merchandise held for disposition of $6,282 and merchandise held for disposition, net of allowance, of $6,174.

The allowance for merchandise held for disposition for domestic operations was $2.6 million as of June 30, 2015, compared to $2.0 million as of June 30, 2014. The allowance for merchandise held for disposition is based on the Company’s historical experience of inventory losses due to damage, theft or obsolescence.

Consumer Loan Activities

Combined Consumer Loans

In addition to reporting consumer loans owned by the Company and consumer loans guaranteed by the Company, which are either GAAP items or disclosures required by GAAP, the Company has provided combined consumer loans, which is a non-GAAP measure. In addition, the Company has reported consumer loans written and renewed, which is statistical data that is not included in the Company’s financial statements. References throughout Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations to renewed consumer loans include both renewals and extensions made by customers to their existing loans in accordance with applicable laws.

Management believes these non-GAAP measures provide investors with important information needed to evaluate the magnitude of potential loan losses and the opportunity for revenue performance of the consumer loan 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 the Company’s balance sheet since both revenue and the loss provision for consumer loans are impacted by the aggregate amount of consumer loans owned by the Company and those guaranteed by the Company as reflected in its financial statements.

38

Consumer Loan Fees, Net of Loss Provision

The following table sets forth interest and fees on consumer loans, loan loss provision and consumer loan fees, net of the loss provision, for the current quarter and the prior year quarter (dollars in thousands):

	Three Months Ended June 30,
	2015									2014
	Short-term loans			Installment loans			Total			Short-term loans			Installment loans			Total
Consumer loan fees	$	13,362		$	5,949		$	19,311		$	20,440		$	3,460		$	23,900
Less: consumer loan loss provision	1,711			2,702			4,413			5,952			1,897			7,849
Consumer loan fees, net loss provision	$	11,651		$	3,247		$	14,898		$	14,488		$	1,563		$	16,051
Year-over-year change - $	$	(2,837	)	$	1,684		$	(1,153	)	$	(3,163	)	$	(321	)	$	(3,484	)
Year-over-year change - %	(19.6		)%	107.7		%	(7.2		)%	(17.9		)%	(17.0		)%	(17.8		)%
Consumer loan loss provision as a % of consumer loan fees	12.8		%	45.4		%	22.9		%	29.1		%	54.8		%	32.8		%

Consumer loan fees, net of loss provision, decreased $1.2 million, or 7.2%, to $14.9 million in the current quarter compared to the prior year quarter, primarily due to a $4.6 million, or 19.2%, decrease in consumer loan fees. The decrease in consumer loan fees was primarily due to the Company’s continued strategic decision to deemphasize its short-term consumer lending activities, including the discontinuance of short-term consumer lending in 336 of the Company’s locations during the twelve months ended June 30, 2015. The decrease in consumer loan fees was partially offset by fees from a new unsecured installment loan product introduced into 109 locations in the first six months of 2015.

The consumer loan loss provision decreased by $3.4 million, or 43.8%, in the current quarter compared to the prior year quarter. The loss provision as a percentage of consumer loan fees decreased to 22.9% in the current quarter compared to 32.8% in the prior year quarter, primarily due to $2.3 million in sales of defaulted loans to third parties. In addition, the loss provision decreased due to the decrease in loan balances as a result of the Company’s strategic decision to deemphasize and eliminate short-term consumer lending activities in many of its locations, as well as an improvement in short-term loan portfolio performance in the remaining locations and decreased charge-offs in the current quarter compared to the prior year quarter. Sales of delinquent consumer loans increased recoveries and therefore reduced the loss provision. The high amount of delinquent consumer loan sales in the current quarter resulted from the initiation of a program to sell delinquent consumer loans to unaffiliated third parties during the current quarter, and these levels are not expected going forward.

39

Consumer Loan Information by Product

Management evaluates consumer loan loss rates for all of its consumer loan products to determine credit quality and evaluate trends. The following tables provide additional information related to each of the Company’s consumer loan products as of and for the three months ended June 30,2015 and 2014 (dollars in thousands):

	Three Months Ended June 30,

^(a)  The disclosure regarding the amount of consumer loans written and renewed is statistical data that is not included in the Company’s financial statements.

^(b)  The consumer loan balances guaranteed by the Company represent loans originated by third-party lenders through the CSO programs, so these balances are not recorded in the Company’s financial statements. However, the Company has established a liability for estimated losses in support of its guarantee of these loans, which is reflected in the table above and included in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

^(c)  Non-GAAP measure.

The allowance and liability for losses as a percentage of consumer loan balances, gross, increased to 11.7% as of June 30, 2015, compared to 9.5% as of June 30, 2014. This increase was primarily due to a higher mix of unsecured installment loans in the current quarter as compared to the prior year quarter, primarily due to the introduction of a new unsecured installment loan product in the third quarter of 2014. In addition, installment loans, in comparison to short-term loans, had a higher allowance and liability for losses as a percentage of combined ending gross consumer loan balance due to the less mature nature of the installment loan portfolio.

40

Average Amount Outstanding Per Consumer Loan

The average amount outstanding per consumer loan is calculated as the total amount of combined consumer loans outstanding as of the end of the period divided by the total number of combined consumer loans outstanding as of the end of the period. The decrease in the average amount of installment loans outstanding from the prior year quarter to the current quarter was primarily due to the discontinuation during 2014 of one of the Company’s installment loan products that typically carried higher average balances than other loans in the installment loan portfolio. The table below shows the average amount per consumer loan by product as of June 30, 2015 and 2014.

	As of June 30,
	2015		2014
Average amount outstanding per consumer loan (in ones)(a)
Short-term loans	$	454	$	462
Installment loans	$	1,241	$	1,568

^(a) The disclosure regarding the average amount per consumer loan is statistical data that is not included in the Company’s financial statements.

Operations and Administration Expenses

Operations expenses include expenses incurred for personnel, occupancy, marketing and other charges that are directly related to the Company’s business. Operations expenses include all expenses directly related to the Company’s storefront locations and the Company’s call centers for customer service and collections. Administration expenses include expenses related to corporate service functions, which can include expenses for legal, occupancy, executive oversight, insurance and risk management, public and government relations, internal audit, treasury, payroll, compliance and licensing, finance, accounting, tax and information systems. Beginning in the first quarter of 2015, costs related to corporate office-based management supervision of the Company’s locations were reclassified from operations expense to administration expense to better align expenses with the Company’s current operating structure. Amounts in all prior periods have been reclassified to conform to this current presentation. These reclassifications had no impact on total operations and administration expenses previously reported.

The table below shows additional detail of the operations and administration expenses for the Company for the current quarter and the prior year quarter (dollars in thousands):

	Three Months Ended June 30,
	2015						2014
	Operations		Administration		Total		Operations		Administration		Total
Personnel	$	53,031	$	12,667	$	65,698	$	54,899	$	18,399	$	73,298
Occupancy	29,581		914		30,495		31,104		969		32,073
Other	9,081		8,032		17,113		11,238		6,102		17,340
Total	$	91,693	$	21,613	$	113,306	$	97,241	$	25,470	$	122,711

Operations and administration expenses decreased $9.4 million, or 7.7%, in the current quarter compared to the prior year quarter. This overall decline in expenses is consistent with management’s strategy and related initiatives to decrease the Company’s overall cost structure and improve marginal profitability. In addition, the sale of the Company’s Mexico-based operations resulted in a $3.3 million decrease in operations and administration expenses in the current quarter compared to the prior year quarter.

Operations expenses decreased $5.5 million, or 5.7%, in the current quarter compared to the prior year quarter and included a $2.3 million decrease due to the sale of the Company’s Mexico-based operations. Domestic operations expense decreased $3.2 million, primarily due to a lower personnel and occupancy cost structure as a result of the Reorganization, as well as decreased marketing, legal and selling expenses. The decrease from

41

operating expense initiatives was partially offset by $0.7 million of expenses related to the Store and Office Closures in the current quarter.

Administration expenses decreased $3.9 million, or 15.1%, in the current quarter compared to the prior year quarter. Within administration expenses, personnel expenses decreased $5.7 million, or 31.2%, and included a $5.2 million decrease primarily due to the lower personnel cost structure as a result of the Reorganization, as well as a $0.5 million decrease related to the sale of the Company’s Mexico-based operations. Other expenses increased $1.9 million, or 31.6%, primarily due to a $1.9 million impairment loss related to a capitalized systems development project that the Company discontinued in the current quarter, as well as an increase in consulting expenses, partially offset by a $0.3 million decrease related to the sale of the Company’s Mexico-based operations.

Depreciation and Amortization Expenses

The following table shows the Company’s depreciation and amortization expense for the three months ended June 30,2015 and 2014 (dollars in thousands):

	Three Months Ended June 30,
	2015		2014		$ Change			% Change
Depreciation	$	12,928	$	13,534	$	(606	)	(4.5	)%
Amortization	1,631		1,647		(16		)	(1.0	)%
Total	$	14,559	$	15,181	$	(622	)	(4.1	)%

Consolidated depreciation and amortization expenses decreased $0.6 million for the current quarter compared to the prior year quarter, primarily due to the sale of the Company’s Mexico-based pawn operations in August 2014 and a reduced number of domestic pawn and consumer lending locations, partially offset by an increase due to the Store and Office Closures.

Interest Expense and Interest Income

The following table shows the Company’s interest income and expense for the three months ended June 30,2015 and 2014 (dollars in thousands):

	Three Months Ended June 30,
	2015		2014		$ Change			% Change
Interest expense	$	3,557	$	8,389	$	(4,832	)	(57.6	)%
Less: interest income	5		2,880		(2,875		)	(99.8	)%
Interest expense, net	$	3,552	$	5,509	$	(1,957	)	(35.5	)%

Interest expense, net of interest income, decreased $2.0 million, or 35.5%, in the current quarter as compared to the prior year quarter. The Company’s interest income in the prior year quarter related primarily to the Company’s outstanding note receivable from Enova (the “Enova Note Receivable”). The Enova Note Receivable was repaid in full and was terminated in May 2014, resulting in a decrease in interest income of $2.9 million in the current quarter from the prior year quarter. In addition, during the current quarter, interest expense decreased $4.8 million compared to the prior year quarter, primarily due to the payoff of several of the Company’s debt instruments in May 2014, thereby decreasing its debt outstanding during the current quarter compared to the prior year quarter.

42

Loss on Early Extinguishment of Debt

The Company incurred a loss on early extinguishment of debt of $0.6 million in the current quarter compared to $15.0 million in the prior year quarter. In the current quarter, the Company repurchased $12.0 million in principal amount of the Company’s $300.0 million aggregate principal amount of 5.75% senior notes due May 15, 2018 (the “2018 Senior Notes”) for cash consideration of $12.4 million. This repurchase resulted in a loss on early extinguishment of debt of $0.6 million, which consisted of a $0.4 million premium paid and a $0.2 million expense resulting from the write-off of deferred loan costs.

In the prior year quarter, the Company incurred a loss on early extinguishment of debt of $15.0 million that resulted primarily from the prepayment of $106.2 million in principal amount of the Company’s 6.09% Series A senior unsecured notes due 2016, 7.26% senior unsecured notes due 2017, 6.00% Series A senior unsecured notes due 2019, 6.21% Series B senior unsecured notes due 2021 and 6.58% Series B senior unsecured notes due 2022 (collectively, the “Private Placement Notes”).

Gain on Disposition of Equity Securities

The Company incurred a gain on the disposition of equity securities of $1.1 million in the current quarter in connection with the delivery of Enova common stock to holders of vested restricted stock unit awards that are payable in shares of the Company and in Enova common stock. See Note 5 of the consolidated financial statements for additional information.

Income Taxes

The Company’s effective tax rate was 36.5% in the current quarter as compared to the effective tax rate of 31.1% in the prior year quarter. The tax rate for the prior year quarter was reduced by the allocation of tax, including tax on allocated overhead expenses, between continuing and discontinued operations based on expected full-year results of these operations. Due to the net loss from continuing operations in the prior-year quarter, the tax rate for the prior year quarter was also downwardly affected by state and local taxes and permanently non-deductible items.

Net Income from Discontinued Operations

As a result of the Enova Spin-off, the financial results of Enova are presented as discontinued operations for the three months ended June 30, 2014. Net income from discontinued operations was $32.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014.

43

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

Pawn Lending Activities

On a consolidated basis, the average balance of pawn loans outstanding decreased $12.5 million, or 5.1%, from the prior year six-month period to the current six-month period, partly due to a $5.2 million decrease in the average balance outstanding related to the sale of the Company’s Mexico-based pawn operations in August 2014. In addition, pawn loan fees and services charges decreased $7.0 million, or 4.3%, from the prior year six-month period to the current six-month period.     

The following table sets forth selected data related to the Company’s pawn lending activities, excluding the Company’s Mexico-based pawn operations, for the six months endedJune 30, 2015 and 2014 (dollars in thousands, except where otherwise noted):

	Six Months Ended June 30,
Domestic pawn operations	2015			2014(a)			$ Change			% Change

^(a) Excludes amounts related to the Company’s Mexico-based pawn operations, which were sold in August 2014.For thesix months ended

June 30, 2014, Mexico-based pawn operations had pawn loan fees and service charges of$3,799, an average pawn loan balance outstanding of$5,175, pawn loans written and renewed of$28,895, an average amount per pawn loan of$88, and an annualized yield on pawn loans of 148.0%.

Average domestic pawn loan balances decreased $7.3 million, or 3.1%, to $231.7 million in the current six-month period, compared to the prior year six-month period, primarily due to a decrease in the average pawn loan balance in same-store domestic pawn locations. Same-store domestic pawn loan balances were 2.7% lower as of June 30, 2015 compared to June 30, 2014. Pawn loan balances at the beginning of the current six-month period were below prior year levels and maintained this relationship throughout the current six-month period.

Domestic pawn loan fees and service charges decreased by $3.2 million, or 2.0%, from the prior year six-month period to the current six-month period. This decrease was primarily driven by lower average domestic pawn loan balances during the current six-month period as compared to the prior year six-month period, partially offset by a higher domestic pawn loan yield of 134.2% in the current six-month period compared to 132.7% in the prior year six-month period.

Proceeds from Disposition of Merchandise and Gross Profit

On a consolidated basis, proceeds from disposition decreased$12.3 million, or 3.8%, from the prior year six-month period to the current six-month period. Gross profit from disposition decreased$1.2 million, or 1.3%, from the prior year six-month period to the current six-month period.

The following table summarizes the proceeds from the disposition of merchandise and the related profit, excluding the Company’s Mexico-based pawn operations, for the current six-month period and the prior year six-month period (dollars in thousands):

	Six Months Ended June 30,
	2015									2014 (a)
Domestic pawn operations	Retail			Commercial			Total			Retail			Commercial			Total
Proceeds from disposition	$	267,472		$	43,444		$	310,916		$	251,952		$	62,665		$	314,617
Gross profit on disposition	$	85,754		$	7,218		$	92,972		$	86,131		$	6,051		$	92,182
Gross profit margin	32.1		%	16.6		%	29.9		%	34.2		%	9.7		%	29.3		%
Percentage of total gross profit	92.2		%	7.8		%	100.0		%	93.4		%	6.6		%	100.0		%

^(a) Excludes amounts related to the Company’s Mexico-based pawn operations, which were sold in August 2014. For the six months ended June 30, 2014, Mexico-based pawn operations had proceeds from disposition of $8,610, gross profit on disposition of $1,971, and gross profit margin of 22.9%.

Proceeds from disposition for domestic pawn operations decreased$3.7 million, or 1.2%, from the prior year six-month period to the current six-month period, primarily due to a decrease in commercial proceeds from disposition of $19.2 million, or 30.7%, as a result of the Company’s continued emphasis on retail disposition in stores and efforts to place less reliance on the commercial disposition of merchandise. Retail proceeds from disposition increased$15.5 million, or 6.2%, primarily as a result of the Company’s emphasis on retail disposition activities in its storefront locations. The decreased emphasis on commercial disposition also contributed to the decrease in the Company’s merchandise turnover ratio from 2.3 times in the prior year six-month period to 2.2 times in the current six-month period, as routine and frequent commercial dispositions typically contribute to a higher turnover ratio.

Gross profit on disposition for domestic pawn operations increased$0.8 million, or 0.9%, from the prior year six-month period to the current six-month period. In addition, the Company experienced an increase in domestic gross profit margin to 29.9% in the current six-month period, compared to 29.3% in the prior year six-month period. The increases is gross profit on disposition and gross profit margin were mostly due to a higher gross profit on commercial dispositions of gold. Partially offsetting this increase, the Company experienced a lower gross profit on retail sales, which declined primarily due to the Company’s emphasis on the retail disposition of general merchandise items, including the discounting of electronics inventory.

Consumer Loan Activities

Consumer Loan Fees, Net of Loss Provision

The following table sets forth interest and fees on consumer loans by product type and segment, and the related loan loss provision for the current and prior year six-month periods (dollars in thousands):

	Six Months Ended June 30,
	2015									2014
	Short-term loans			Installment loans			Total			Short-term loans			Installment loans			Total
Consumer loan fees	$	30,425		$	9,205		$	39,630		$	42,437		$	7,222		$	49,659
Less: consumer loan loss provision	4,830			4,370			9,200			11,397			4,050			15,447
Consumer loan fees, net loss provision	$	25,595		$	4,835		$	30,430		$	31,040		$	3,172		$	34,212
Year-over-year change - $	$	(5,445	)	$	1,663		$	(3,782	)	$	(6,274	)	$	(593	)	$	(6,867	)
Year-over-year change - %	(17.5		)%	52.4		%	(11.1		)%	(16.8		)%	(15.8		)%	(16.7		)%
Consumer loan loss provision as a % of consumer loan fees	15.9		%	47.5		%	23.2		%	26.9		%	56.1		%	31.1		%

Consumer loan fees, net of loss provision, decreased$3.8 million, or 11.1%, to $30.4 million in the current six-month period compared to the prior year six-month period, primarily due to a $10.0 million, or 20.2%, decrease in consumer loan fees. The decrease in consumer loan fees was primarily due to the Company’s continued strategic decision to deemphasize its short-term consumer lending activities, including the discontinuance of short-term consumer lending in 336 of the Company’s locations during the twelve months ended June 30, 2015. The decrease in consumer loan fees was partially offset by fees from a new unsecured installment loan product introduced into 109 locations in the current six-month period.

The consumer loan loss provision decreased by $6.2 million, or 40.4%, in the current six-month period compared to the prior year six-month period. The loss provision as a percentage of consumer loan fees decreased to 23.2% in the current six-month period compared to 31.1% in the prior year six-month period. The decrease in the loss provision was primarily due to the decrease in loan balances as a result of the Company’s strategic decision to deemphasize and eliminate short-term consumer lending activities in many of its locations, as well as an improvement in short-term loan portfolio performance in remaining locations and decreased charge-offs in the current six-month period compared to the prior year six-month period. In addition, the Company sold $2.3 million of delinquent loans to third parties in the current six-month period. The high amount of delinquent consumer loan sales in the current six-month period resulted from the initiation of a program to sell delinquent consumer loans to unaffiliated third parties during the current six-month period, and these levels are not expected going forward.

Consumer Loans Written and Renewed

Consumer loans written and renewed is statistical data that is not included in the Company’s financial statements and represents loans originated by the Company and by third-party lenders through the CSO programs. The following table summarizes consumer loans written and renewed for the current and prior year six-month periods (dollars in thousands):

	Six Months Ended June 30,

Operations and Administration Expenses

The table below shows additional detail of the operations and administration expenses for the Company for the current six-month period and the prior year six-month period (dollars in thousands):

	Six Months Ended June 30,
	2015						2014
	Operations		Administration		Total		Operations		Administration		Total
Personnel	$	108,959	$	28,897	$	137,856	$	111,107	$	38,080	$	149,187
Occupancy	59,255		1,813		61,068		61,603		1,856		63,459
Other	18,121		12,599		30,720		21,827		11,657		33,484
Total	$	186,335	$	43,309	$	229,644	$	194,537	$	51,593	$	246,130

Operations and administration expenses decreased $16.5 million, or 6.7%, in the current six-month period compared to the prior year six-month period. This overall decline in expenses is consistent with management’s strategy and related initiatives to decrease the Company’s overall cost structure and improve marginal profitability. In addition, the sale of the Company’s Mexico-based operations resulted in a $6.4 million decrease in operations and administration expenses in the current six-month period compared to the prior year six-month period.

Operations expenses decreased $8.2 million, or 4.2%, in the current six-month period compared to the prior year six-month period and included a $4.6 million decrease due to the sale of the Company’s Mexico-based operations. Domestic operations expenses decreased $3.6 million, primarily due to a lower personnel cost structure as a result of the Reorganization, as well as decreased marketing, legal and selling expenses. The decrease from operating expense initiatives was partially offset by $1.1 million of expenses due to the Store and Office Closures in the current six-month period.

Administration expenses decreased $8.3 million, or 16.1%, in the current six-month period compared to the prior year six-month period. Within administration expenses, personnel expenses decreased $9.2 million, or 24.1%, and included an $8.8 million decrease primarily due to a lower personnel cost structure as a result of the Reorganization, as well as a $1.1 million decrease related to the sale of the Company’s Mexico-based operations, partially offset by $0.7 million in Reorganization expenses in the current six-month period. Other expenses increased $0.9 million, or 8.1%, primarily due to a $1.9 million impairment loss related to a capitalized systems development project that the Company discontinued, partially offset by reduced travel expenses and a $0.4 million decrease related to the sale of the Company’s Mexico-based operations.

47

Depreciation and Amortization Expenses

The following table shows the Company’s depreciation and amortization expense for the six months ended June 30,2015 and 2014 (dollars in thousands):

	Six Months Ended June 30,
	2015		2014		$ Change			% Change
Depreciation	$	25,813	$	27,036	$	(1,223	)	(4.5	)%
Amortization	3,265		3,288		(23		)	(0.7	)%
Total	$	29,078	$	30,324	$	(1,246	)	(4.1	)%

Consolidated depreciation and amortization expenses decreased $1.2 million to $29.1 million for the current six-month period compared to $30.3 million for the prior year six-month period, primarily due to the sale of the Company’s Mexico-based pawn operations in August 2014 and a reduced number of domestic pawn and consumer lending locations, partially offset by a $0.6 million increase due to the Store and Office Closures.

Interest Expense and Interest Income

The following table shows the Company’s interest income and expense for the six months ended June 30,2015 and 2014 (dollars in thousands):

	Six Months Ended June 30,
	2015		2014		$ Change			% Change
Interest expense	$	7,201	$	18,457	$	(11,256	)	(61.0	)%
Less: interest income	7		7,644		(7,637		)	(99.9	)%
Interest expense, net	$	7,194	$	10,813	$	(3,619	)	(33.5	)%

Interest expense, net of interest income, decreased $3.6 million, or 33.5%, in the current six-month period as compared to the prior year six-month period. The Company’s interest income in the prior year six-month period related primarily to the Enova Note Receivable. The Enova Note Receivable was repaid in full and was terminated in May 2014, resulting in a decrease in interest income of $7.6 million in the current six-month period from the prior year six-month period. In addition, during the current six-month period, interest expense decreased $11.3 million, primarily due to the payoff of several of the Company’s debt instruments in 2014, thereby decreasing the Company’s debt outstanding during the current six-month period compared to the prior year six-month period.

Loss on Early Extinguishment of Debt

The Company incurred a loss on early extinguishment of debt of $0.6 million in the current six-month period compared to $16.6 million in the prior year six-month period. In the current six-month period, the Company repurchased $12.0 million in principal amount of the 2018 Senior Notes for cash consideration of $12.4 million. This repurchase resulted in a loss on early extinguishment of debt of $0.6 million, which consisted of a $0.4 million premium paid and a $0.2 million expense resulting from the write-off of deferred loan costs.

In the prior year six-month period, the Company incurred a loss on early extinguishment of debt of $16.6 million that resulted primarily from the prepayment of $106.2 million in principal amount of the Company’s outstanding Private Placement Notes. In the prior year six-month period, the Company also incurred a $1.5 million loss on early extinguishment of debt upon the repurchase of $58.6 million in principal amount of the Company’s $115.0 million aggregate principal amount of 5.25% convertible senior notes due May 15, 2029 (the “2029 Convertible Notes”).

48

Gain on Disposition of Equity Securities

The Company incurred a gain on the disposition of equity securities of $1.2 million in the current six-month period in connection with the delivery of Enova common stock to holders of vested restricted stock unit awards that are payable in shares of the Company and in Enova common stock. See Note 5 of the consolidated financial statements for additional information.

Income Taxes

The Company’s effective tax rate was 38.1% in the current six-month period as compared to the effective tax rate of 14.8% in the prior year six-month period. The tax rate for the prior year six-month period was reduced by the allocation of tax, including tax on allocated overhead expenses, between continuing and discontinued operations based on expected full-year results of these operations. Due to the net loss from continuing operations in the prior-year six-month period, the tax rate was also downwardly affected by state and local taxes and permanently non-deductible items.

Net Income from Discontinued Operations

As a result of the Enova Spin-off, the financial results of Enova are presented as discontinued operations for the six months endedJune 30, 2014. Net income from discontinued operations was $75.2 million for the six months endedJune 30, 2014.

^(a)  Non-GAAP measure. See “Overview—Adjusted EBITDA” section above for a reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA to net income attributable to the Company.

Cash Flows from Continuing Operating Activities

Net cash provided by continuing operating activities was $62.0 million for the current six-month period, which represented an increase of $10.4 million, or 20.1%, from $51.6 million in the prior year six-month period. The increase primarily related to an $18.4 million increase in net income and an $18.5 million increase in cash from accounts payable and accrued expenses mainly as a result of a payment in the prior year six-month period for the 2013 Litigation Settlement with no corresponding payment in the current six-month period. Partially offsetting this increase, current and deferred income taxes payable decreased $13.2 million, mainly due to payments received from Enova in 2014 related to its income tax liability for the prior year six-month period. Furthermore, cash provided by continuing operating activities decreased by $7.9 million due to the reclassification during the prior year six-month period of cash from “Restricted cash” to “Cash and cash equivalents” on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet in connection with the release of restrictions on certain funds associated with the Company’s consent order issued by the CFPB. Finally, additional changes in operating assets and liabilities and non-cash adjustments, including adjustments for the consumer loan loss provision and interest income from the Enova note receivable, resulted in a $5.4 million million decrease for the current six-month period compared to the prior year six-month period.

Management believes that its expected cash flows from operations and available cash balances and borrowings will be sufficient to fund the Company’s operating liquidity needs.

50

Cash Flows from Continuing Investing Activities

Net cash provided by continuing investing activities was $4.9 million in the current six-month period, which represented a decrease of $511.3 million, or 99.0%, from $516.3 million in the prior year six-month period, primarily due to transactions related to the Company’s former subsidiary, Enova, that occurred prior to the Enova Spin-off. These transactions included the receipt of $425.8 million in proceeds for the Enova Note Receivable and $122.4 million in cash dividends received from Enova in the prior year six-month period with no corresponding amounts in the current six-month period. This decrease was partially offset by a $12.6 millionincrease in cash provided by consumer loan activities due to a decrease in the volume of consumer loans written as a result of the Company’s strategic reduction of its consumer lending activities.

In addition, expenditures for property and equipment decreased $15.7 million in the current six-month period compared to the prior year six-month period. Management anticipates that expenditures for property and equipment, excluding acquisitions of stores, for the remainder of 2015 will be between $15.0 million and $20.0 million, primarily for the remodeling of stores, facility upgrades and technology infrastructure.

Proceeds from disposition of marketable securities increased cash from investing activities by $0.4 million for the current six-month period, due to the disposition of Enova common stock that was withheld for taxes in conjunction with the issuance of shares under the Company’s long-term incentive plans. The Company has agreed, pursuant to a private letter ruling received from the Internal Revenue Service to dispose of its retained shares of Enova common stock (other than shares retained for delivery under the Company’s long-term incentive plans) within two years following the Enova Spin-off, which will increase cash flows from continuing investing activities when sold. See Note 5 of the consolidated financial statements for additional information.

Cash Flows from Continuing Financing Activities

Net cash flows used in continuing financing activities decreased by $398.3 million, from $474.3 million in the prior year six-month period to $75.9 million in the current six-month period. The decrease was mainly due to decreased debt payments in the current quarter compared to the prior year quarter of $458.2 million. The debt payment activity in the prior year six-month period took place prior to the Enova Spin-off and included $193.7 million in payments made under the Company’s line of credit and $276.9 million in payments made to redeem the Company’s 2029 Convertible Notes, the Private Placement Notes and variable senior rate unsecured notes due March 31, 2018.

This decrease in net cash flows used in continuing financing activities was partially offset by an increase of $56.3 million in cash used for repurchases of shares of the Company’s common stock for the current six-month period compared to the prior year six-month period. In the current six-month period, the Company used cash to repurchase $57.7 million of its common stock and an additional $3.3 million representing the value of common stock to be delivered upon settlement of the Company’s accelerated share repurchase (“ASR”) agreement. See “Share Repurchases” below for additional information.

As of June 30, 2015, the Company had $280.0 million of available borrowings under its $280 million domestic and multi-currency line of credit (the “Domestic and Multi-currency Line of Credit”), which was undrawn as of that date. Management believes that the borrowings available under the Company’s Domestic and Multi-currency Line of Credit, anticipated cash generated from operations and current working capital of $601.3 million is sufficient to meet the Company’s anticipated capital requirements for its business. See Note 6 of the consolidated financial statements for additional information regarding the Company’s debt instruments, including the Domestic and Multi-currency Line of Credit.

The Company had standby letters of credit of $9.5 million issued under its $20.0 million standby Letter of Credit Facility as of June 30, 2015.

51

As ofJune 30, 2015, the Company believes it was in compliance with all covenants or other requirements set forth in its debt agreements. On June 26, 2015, Wilmington Savings Fund Society, FSB, as trustee (the “Trustee”) under the Indenture, dated as of May 15, 2013, that governs the 2018 Senior Notes, among the Company, the guarantors party thereto and the Trustee (“2018 Senior Notes Indenture”), filed a lawsuit against the Company in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. The lawsuit alleges that the Enova Spin-off was not permitted by the 2018 Senior Notes Indenture, and the Trustee is seeking a remedy equal to principal and accrued and unpaid interest, plus a make-whole premium, to be paid to the holders of the 2018 Senior Notes. The Company disagrees with the assertion in the lawsuit that the Enova Spin-off was not permitted under the 2018 Senior Notes Indenture. The Company also disagrees that a make-whole premium would be due to the holders of the 2018 Senior Notes even if it is determined that the Enova Spin-off was not permitted under the 2018 Senior Notes Indenture. The Company believes the position taken by the Trustee is without merit, and the Company intends to vigorously defend its position. Regardless of the outcome of this claim, the Company has ample liquidity and capital resources to sustain its ongoing operations and to repay the 2018 Senior Notes, including any make-whole premium on the 2018 Senior Notes, if such a premium were to be finally determined to be payable, notwithstanding the Company’s belief that such a premium is not payable. The Company’s sources of liquidity include availability under the Domestic and Multi-currency Line of Credit, which had $280.0 million in availability and was undrawn as of June 30, 2015. As of June 30, 2015, the Company had no outstanding indebtedness other than the $184.5 million in aggregate principal amount of 2018 Senior Notes outstanding, and a make-whole premium on such principal balance as of that date would be approximately $22.1 million.

In the event of a significant decline in demand for the Company’s products and services or other unexpected changes in financial condition, management would evaluate several alternatives to ensure that it is in a position to meet its liquidity requirements. Such actions could include the sale of assets, the sale of the Enova shares held by the Company, reductions in capital spending and/or the issuance of debt or equity securities, all of which could be expected to generate additional liquidity. The characteristics of the Company’s current assets, specifically the ability to rapidly liquidate gold jewelry inventory and adjust outflows of cash in its lending practices, gives the Company flexibility to quickly modify its business strategy to increase cash flow from its business, if necessary.

Share Repurchases

On January 28, 2015, the Board of Directors of the Company authorized a new share repurchase program for the repurchase of up to 4.0 million shares of the Company’s common stock (the “2015 Authorization”) and canceled the Company’s previous share repurchase authorization from January 2013 (the “2013 Authorization”). During the current six-month period, the Company purchased 2,332,230 shares under the 2015 Authorization for a total investment of $57.0 million, including commissions. This included the purchase of 1,648,000 shares in open market transactions, in addition to 684,230 shares under an accelerated share repurchase (“ASR”) agreement entered into by the Company during the current quarter. All shares that have been repurchased, including those repurchased under the ASR agreement, have been placed in treasury and are not considered outstanding for earnings per common share computation purposes.

In May 2015, the Company entered into an ASR agreement with a financial institution. Under the ASR agreement, the Company paid$22.0 million in cash to the financial institution on May 14, 2015 and received an initial delivery of684,230shares that were valued at$18.7 million, based on the then-current market price of the Company’s stock. The Company also entered into an ASR forward contract with the financial institution that was valued at $3.3 million and reflects the estimated value of stock to be delivered upon final settlement. Final settlement of the ASR agreement is expected to take place in the third quarter of 2015. The number of shares of the Company’s common stock that the Company may receive, or may be required to remit, upon settlement under the ASR agreement will be based on the average daily volume weighted average price, less an agreed upon discount, of the Company’s common stock during the duration of the ASR agreement. The terms of the ASR agreement are subject to change if the Company were to enter into or announce certain types of transactions. If the Company is obligated to make an adjustment payment to the financial institution upon settlement of the ASR agreement, the Company may elect to satisfy its obligation in cash or in shares of the Company’s common stock.

In connection with the repurchase of shares under the 2015 Authorization, on May 11, 2015, the Company entered into a Rule 10b5-1 plan under which the Company’s designated broker is authorized to repurchase up to an aggregate of 875,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, with the total number of shares repurchased in combination with the ASR agreement and the Company’s previous share repurchases not exceeding the number of shares authorized for repurchase under the 2015 Authorization. This Rule 10b5-1 plan will commence shortly after final settlement of the ASR agreement and continue through October 23, 2015. Rule 10b5-1 plans allow companies to repurchase shares at times when they could not ordinarily be in the market due to their trading policies or the possession of material nonpublic information.

At June 30, 2015, there were 1,667,770 shares remaining under the 2015 Authorization to repurchase shares. The Company anticipates additional share repurchases going forward. Ultimately, the Company’s decision to repurchase shares under the 2015 Authorization in the future will be based on its assessment of market characteristics, the liquidity position of the Company and alternative prospects for the investment of capital to expand its business and pursue strategic objectives.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

In certain markets, the Company arranges for consumers to obtain consumer loan products from independent third-party lenders through the 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 consumer’s application is underwritten and, if approved, determining the amount of the consumer loan. The Company, in turn, is responsible for assessing whether or not it will guarantee such loans. When a consumer executes an agreement with the Company under the CSO programs, the Company agrees, for a fee payable to the Company 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. The guarantee represents an obligation to purchase specific loans that go into default. Short-term loans that the Company guarantees generally have terms of less than90days.Unsecured installment loans that the Company guarantees generally have terms of up totwelve months.Secured installment loans that the Company guarantees have terms of up to48 months. As of June 30, 2015 and 2014, the amount of consumer loans guaranteed by the Company was$12.9 million and $12.5 million, respectively, representing amounts due under consumer loans originated by third-party lenders under the CSO programs.The liability for estimated losses on consumer loans guaranteed by the Company of$1.9 million and $1.6 million as of June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, is included in “Accounts payable and accrued expenses” in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Market risks relating to the Company’s operations result primarily from changes in interest rates and gold prices. The Company does not engage in speculative or leveraged transactions, nor does it hold or issue financial instruments for trading purposes. There have been no material changes to the Company’s exposure to market risks since December 31, 2014.

55

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, management of the Company has evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s 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, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective and provide reasonable assurance (i) to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports that the Company files or submits 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 the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

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

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

See Note 6 of Part I, “Item 1. Financial Statements.”

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

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

The adoption of new laws or regulations or adverse changes in, or the interpretation or enforcement of, existing laws or regulations affecting the Company’s products and services could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, prospects, results of operations, reputation, financial condition, cash flows or ability to continue current operations without any direct or indirect impairment or disruption.

Governments at the national, state and local levels, may seek to impose new laws, regulatory restrictions or licensing requirements that affect the Company’s products or services it offers, the terms on which it may offer them, and the disclosure, compliance and reporting obligations it must fulfill in connection with its business. They may also interpret or enforce existing requirements in new ways that could restrict the Company’s ability to continue its current methods of operation or to expand operations, impose significant additional compliance costs, and could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, prospects, results of operations, reputation, financial condition, cash flows or ability to continue current operations without any direct or indirect impairment or disruption (“Material Adverse Effect”). In some cases these measures could even directly prohibit some or all of

56

the Company’s current business activities in certain jurisdictions, or render them unprofitable and/or impractical to continue.

In July 2015, the Department of Defense published a finalized set of new rules under the Military Lending Act. The Military Lending Act (and rules previously adopted thereunder) has previously restricted the Company from offering its short-term unsecured credit products to members of the military or their dependents because none of the Company’s short-term unsecured credit products carry a military annual percentage rate of 36% or less. The new rule expands the scope of the credit products covered by the Military Lending Act to include certain non-purchase money loans secured by personal property or vehicles and certain unsecured installment loan products to the extent any of such products have a military annual percentage rate greater than 36%. Because none of the Company’s pawn loans or secured or unsecured installment loans have a military annual percentage rate of 36% or less, once the new rule takes effect, the Company may not be able to offer any of its current credit products (including pawn loans) to members of the military or their dependents. The rules under the Military Lending Act contain various disclosure requirements, limitations on renewals and refinancing and other restrictions, including 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 member of the military or a military dependent on terms prohibited by the rule. The new rule does provide a safe harbor for a lender if it verifies a potential borrower’s military status 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. As to the Company’s pawn loan and longer-term credit products, 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 compliance costs.

Additionally, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (the “CFPB”) has also announced that it has been conducting a review of the short-term small dollar loan industry, which includes a review of payday loans, and has indicated that its “findings raised substantial consumer protection concerns” related to the sustained use of payday loans. On March 26, 2015, the CFPB announced that it is considering proposing rules that would require lenders to take steps to make sure consumers can repay their loans and would also restrict lenders from attempting to “collect payment from a consumers’ bank account in ways that tend to rack up excessive fees.” The CFPB has indicated that such rules would apply to payday loans, vehicle title loans and high-cost installment loans, among other consumer loans, and may impose certain limitations on these types of loans, such as requiring additional underwriting requirements, requiring cooling-off periods between payday loans, limitations on loan amounts and terms and limitations to prevent the sustained use of certain loans, among other things. The CFPB has also indicated that the rules that are proposed may also place restrictions on collection practices with respect to these types of loans. All of the Company’s consumer loan products and certain pawn loans offered by the Company that are collateralized by a customer’s vehicle or the title thereto could be affected by such rules if they are applicable to the types of loans that the CFPB has indicated when they are adopted. If the CFPB adopts any such rules or regulations, it could reduce revenue from these products or make the continuance of these products impractical or unprofitable. The Company does not currently know the nature and extent of the rules the CFPB will adopt, but those rules could be proposed during 2015 or 2016 and, if adopted, would likely become effective in 2016 or 2017.

The Company closely monitors proposed legislation being discussed in the states where it offers its products and services. Legislative or regulatory actions that affect the products or services offered by the Company at the national, state and local level could have a Material Adverse Effect.

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

The following table provides information with respect to purchases made by the Company of shares of its common stock, par value $0.10 per share, during each of the months in the first six months of 2015:

Period	Total Number of Shares Purchased(a)	Average Price Paid Per Share		Total Number of Shares Purchased as Part of Publicly Announced Plan (b)	Maximum Number of Shares that May Yet Be Purchased Under the Plan (b)
January 1 to January 31	608	$	20.97	—	4,000,000
February 1 to February 28	750,062	$	21.06	726,400	3,273,600
March 1 to March 31	421,600	$	23.68	421,600	2,852,000
April 1 to April 30	327,469	$	25.65	326,800	2,525,200
May 1 to May 31 (c)	862,214	$	27.20	857,430	1,667,770
June 1 to June 30	1,245	$	27.33	—	1,667,770
Total	2,363,198	$	24.41	2,332,230

^(a)  Includes the following: shares withheld from employees as partial tax payments for shares issued under the Company’s stock-based compensation plans of 608, 23,589, 669, 4,725 and 1,245 for the months of January, February, April, May and June, respectively; and the reinvestment of dividends on Director Deferred Shares, which resulted in the purchase of 73 and 59 shares for the months of February and May, respectively.

^(b)  On January 28, 2015, the Board of Directors approved the 2015 Authorization. This repurchase authorization canceled and replaced the 2013 Authorization. All share repurchases made under the 2015 Authorization have been through open market transactions or through the ASR agreement.

^(c)  Amounts include shares acquired under an ASR agreement entered into by the Company and a financial institution in May 2015. On May 14, 2015, the Company paid $22.0 million in cash and received an initial delivery of 684,230 shares that were valued at $18.7 million, based on the then-current market price of the Company’s stock. The total number of shares purchased and the maximum number of shares that may yet be purchased under the 2015 Authorization include the effects of the 684,230 shares delivered, and the average price paid per share includes the effects of the $18.7 million value of the initial shares delivered divided by the 684,230 shares delivered. This does not represent the final number of shares to be delivered under the ASR agreement or the final average price per share that will be paid for the shares purchased. The final number of shares to be repurchased under the ASR agreement will be based on the average daily volume weighted average price, less an agreed upon discount, of the Company’s common stock during the duration of the ASR agreement. Purchases under the ASR agreement are expected to be completed in the third quarter of 2015. For additional information, see Note 7 of Part I, “Item 1. Financial Statements.”

EXHIBIT 10.1

CASH AMERICA INTERNATIONAL, INC.

2015 RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AWARD AGREEMENT

This 2015 Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement (the “Agreement”) is entered into as of the 21^st day of May, 2015, by and between CASH AMERICA INTERNATIONAL, INC. (the “Company”) and ________________________ (“Director”).

W I T N E S S E T H:

WHEREAS, the Company has adopted the Cash America International, Inc. 2014 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), which is administered by the Management Development and Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”); and

WHEREAS,any terms used herein with an initial capital letter shall have the same meaning as provided in the Plan, unless otherwise specified herein; and

WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 11(a) of the Plan, Director is automatically granted an Award of Restricted Stock Units on the date of the Company’s Shareholders Meeting, which was held on May 21, 2015, in an amount authorized by the Board (the “Award”); and

WHEREAS, the Award provides for deferred compensation under Code Section 409A (as hereinafter defined); and

WHEREAS,to comply with the terms of the Plan and Code Section 409A, and to further the interests of the Company and Director, the parties hereto desire to set forth the terms of the Award in the Agreement, which have been approved by the Committee.

NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the mutual promises herein contained, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:

1.    Stock Award.

(a)    General. Subject to the restrictions and other conditions set forth herein, the Company hereby grants to Director an award of 2,883 Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”). The RSUs represent the unfunded and unsecured promise of the Company to issue to Director an equivalent number of shares of the common stock of the Company or its successors (“Shares”) at a future date, subject to the terms of this Agreement.

(b)    Grant Date. The RSUs are awarded to Director on May 21, 2015 (the “Grant Date”).

2.    Vesting.

The RSUs shall vest in substantially equal one-twelfth increments on each of the following dates as long as Director serves continuously on the Board through the applicable vesting date: May 31, 2015 (the “First Vesting Date”), June 30, 2015, July 31, 2015, August 31, 2015, September 30, 2015, October 31, 2015, November 30, 2015, December 31, 2015, January 31, 2016, February 29, 2016, March 31, 2016 and the earlier of (a) April 30, 2016 or (b) the day immediately preceding the date of the 2016 Shareholders Meeting. Shares payable with respect to the portion of the RSUs that vest on the First Vesting Date shall be compensation for services performed from the Grant Date through the First Vesting Date. Shares payable with respect to the portion of the RSUs that vest on each other vesting date shall be

compensation for services performed during the period beginning on the first day of the calendar month that includes the applicable vesting date and ending on the applicable vesting date.

3.    Forfeiture Upon Termination of Service on the Board of Directors.

Upon Director’s termination of service on the Board for any reason, any RSUs that are not then vested under Section 2 or Section 5 of this Agreement and any unvested rights to Dividend Equivalents (as defined in Section 10(c)) shall be immediately forfeited, and Director shall have no rights in such forfeited RSUs, including any unvested rights to Dividend Equivalents.

4.    Delivery of Shares.

(a)    General. Except as provided in subsection (b) below, the Company shall deliver or instruct its transfer agent to issue Shares, either in book entry or stock certificate form, which shall evidence the conversion of vested RSUs into whole vested Shares, in the name of Director on June 21, 2016. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of Director’s death before the Shares relating to such vested RSUs have been issued, such Shares will be issued in the name of Director’s designated beneficiary or, if no beneficiary has been designated, in the name of Director’s estate (“Beneficiary”) within 90 days after the date of Director’s death. The Company shall not be required to deliver any fractional Shares under the Award, and any fractional Share shall be rounded up to the next whole Share.

(b)    Deferred Delivery. Director may elect to defer the timing of the payment of Shares payable with respect to vested RSUs until June 21, 2021. To be effective, such election must be made no later than June 19, 2015. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of Director’s death, the Shares relating to any and all vested RSUs that have been deferred in accordance with this Section 4(b) will be issued within 90 days after Director’s death in the name of Director’s Beneficiary.

5.    Change in Control

(a)    Vesting and Payment. In the event of a Change in Control (as defined below) while Director is still a director of the Company, the Award (including all outstanding unvested RSUs and related Dividend Equivalents) shall automatically accelerate and become 100% vested, and the Shares and Dividend Equivalents payable with respect to the outstanding vested RSUs shall be delivered to Director within 90 days following the date of the Change in Control. A “Change in Control” shall mean an event that is a change in the ownership of the Company, a change in the effective control of the Company or a change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets of the Company, all as defined in Code Section 409A and guidance issued thereunder (collectively, “Code Section 409A”), except that 35% shall be substituted for 30% in applying Treasury Regulations Section 1.409A-3(i)(5)(vi) and 50% shall be substituted for 40% in applying Treasury Regulations Section 1.409A-3(i)(5)(vii).

(b)    Substitution. Notwithstanding anything set forth herein to the contrary, upon a Change in Control the Committee, in its sole discretion, may, in lieu of issuing Shares, provide Director with an equivalent amount payable in the form of cash.

6.    Agreement of Director.

Director acknowledges that certain restrictions under state or federal securities laws may apply with respect to the Shares to be issued pursuant to the Award. Specifically, Director acknowledges that, to the extent Director is an “affiliate” of the Company (as that term is defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933 (“Rule 144”)), the Shares to be issued as a result of the Award are subject to certain restrictions under applicable securities laws (including particularly Rule 144). Director hereby agrees to comply with such state and federal securities laws with respect to any applicable restrictions on the resale of such Shares and to execute such documents and take such actions as the Company may reasonably require in connection therewith. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary and only to the extent permitted

2

under Code Section 409A, a payment may be delayed to the extent the Company reasonably anticipates that making the payment will violate federal securities laws or other applicable laws.

7.    Withholding.

Upon the issuance of Shares to Director pursuant to this Agreement, Director shall pay an amount equal to the amount of all applicable federal, state and local employment taxes which the Company is required to withhold at any time. Such payment may be made in cash, by withholding from any amounts payable to Director, or by delivery of Shares (including Shares issuable under this Agreement) in accordance with Section 14(a) of the Plan and the terms of Code Section 409A.

8.    Adjustment of Awards.

(a)    If there is an increase or decrease in the number of issued and outstanding Shares through the payment of a stock dividend or through any recapitalization resulting in a stock split, combination or exchange of Shares, then the number of outstanding RSUs shall be adjusted so that the proportion of such Award to the Company’s total issued and outstanding Shares remains the same as existed immediately prior to such event.

(b)    If there is spin-off or other similar distribution to the Company's shareholders of stock, the number and type of shares subject to the Award shall be adjusted by the Committee (which adjustment may include Shares, stock of such Affiliate, cash or a combination thereof) so that the value of the outstanding Award immediately prior to such event is preserved, as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion. If stock of an Affiliate or former Affiliate becomes subject to the Award as a result of any such adjustment, the terms of the Agreement shall apply to such stock in the same manner as if it were Shares.

(c)    Except as provided in subsections (a) and (b), above, no adjustment in the number of Shares subject to any outstanding portion of the RSUs shall be made upon the issuance by the Company of Shares of any class of its capital stock or securities convertible into Shares of any class of capital stock, either in connection with a direct sale or upon the exercise of rights or warrants to subscribe therefor, or upon conversion of any other obligation of the Company that may be convertible into such Shares or other securities.

(d)    Upon the occurrence of events affecting Shares other than those specified in subsections (a), (b) and (c), above, the Committee may make such other adjustments to awards as are permitted under Section 5(c) of the Plan.

9.    Plan Provisions.

In addition to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Award is subject to and governed by the terms and conditions set forth in the Plan, as may be amended from time to time, which are hereby incorporated by reference. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of the Agreement and the Plan, the Plan shall control.

10.    Miscellaneous.

(a)    Limitation of Rights. The granting of the Award and the execution of the Agreement shall not give Director any rights to (1) similar grants in future years, or (2) any right to be retained as a member of the Board or in any other capacity by the Company or any of its Affiliates.

(b)    Claims Procedure. Any dispute or claim for benefits by any person under this Agreement shall be determined by the Committee.

(c)    Dividend Equivalents. The Award includes the right to receive dividend equivalents (“Dividend Equivalents”) on the portion, if any, of the Award that becomes vested in accordance with Section 2 or Section 5 of this Agreement. On the same date that Shares are delivered in accordance

with Section 4 or Section 5 of this Agreement with respect to any portion of the Award that vests, Director shall receive an amount of cash, without interest, equivalent to the dividends, if any, that would have been payable to a shareholder who actually owned the number of Shares equal to the number of the vested RSUs from the Grant Date through the day immediately preceding the date on which the Shares payable with respect to the vested portion of the Award are delivered to Director.

(d)    Shareholder Rights. Except as set forth in Section 10(c), neither Director nor Director’s Beneficiary shall have any rights of a shareholder with respect to any Shares until such Shares have been issued and delivered to Director or Director’s Beneficiary pursuant to Section 4 of this Agreement.

(e)    Severability. If any term, provision, covenant or restriction contained in the Agreement is held by a court or a federal regulatory agency of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions contained in the Agreement shall remain in full force and effect, and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated.

(f)    Controlling Law. The Agreement is being made in Texas and shall be construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of that state.

(g)    Construction. The Agreement and the Plan contain the entire understanding between the parties and supersede any prior understanding and agreements between them representing the subject matter hereof. There are no representations, agreements, arrangements or understandings, oral or written, between and among the parties hereto relating to the subject matter hereof which are not fully expressed herein.

(h)    Amendments to Comply With Code Section 409A.Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any provision of this Agreement would cause compensation to be includible in Director’s income pursuant to Code Section 409A(a)(1), then, to the extent permitted by Code Section 409A, the Company may amend the Agreement in such a way as to cause substantially similar economic results without causing such inclusion; any such amendment shall be made by providing notice of such amendment to Director, and shall be binding on Director.

(i)    Headings. Section and other headings contained in the Agreement are for reference purposes only and are in no way intended to describe, interpret, define or limit the scope, extent or intent of the Agreement or any provision hereof.

(j)    Heirs, Successors and Assigns. Each and all of the covenants, terms, provisions and agreements contained herein shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Director's heirs, legal representatives, successors and assigns.

(k)    Execution/Acceptance. This Agreement may be executed and/or accepted electronically and/or in duplicate counterparts, the production of either of which (including a signature or proof of electronic acceptance) shall be sufficient for all purposes for the proof of the binding terms of this Agreement.

WHEREAS, pursuant to Employee’s Employment Agreement, the Committee has agreed to grant Employee a one-time grant of RSUs having a value of $1,500,000 and with the number of RSUs in such grant to be determined by dividing $1,500,000 by the average closing price of the Company’s common stock traded on the New York Stock Exchange for the 20 consecutive trading day period ending with the closing price of such stock on the day immediately preceding the grant date; and

WHEREAS, the RSUs represent the unfunded and unsecured promise of the Company to issue to Employee an equivalent number of shares of the common stock of the Company or its successors (“Shares”) at a future date, subject to the terms of this Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the mutual promises herein contained, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:

1.    Award.

(a)    General. Subject to the restrictions and other conditions set forth herein, the Company hereby grants to Employee an Award of 57,670 RSUs.

(b)    Grant Date. The Award was granted to Employee on May 6, 2015 (the “Grant Date”).

2.    Vesting. The Award shall vest as follows: Substantially equal 20% increments of the RSUs shall vest on each of the following dates (the “Scheduled Vesting Dates”) as long as Employee continuously remains (i) employed by the Company or its Affiliates, and/or (ii) a member of the Company's Board (“Employee’s Continuous Service”), through the applicable vesting date: April 30, 2016; April 30, 2017; April 30, 2018, April 30, 2019 and April 30, 2020. In addition, if Employee’s Continuous Service ceases due to Employee’s death or because Employee becomes Disabled (as defined below) before the entire Award has vested, a portion of the Award (the “Special Vesting RSUs”) will vest on the date that Employee’s Continuous Service ceases due to such death or disability (the “Special Vesting Date”). If applicable, the number of Special Vesting RSUs shall be computed as follows:

● the 20% portion of the Award, if any, that is outstanding, unvested and scheduled to vest on the Scheduled Vesting Date coincident with or next following the Special Vesting Date; multiplied by

● the number of days in the period beginning on the first calendar day after the most recent Scheduled Vesting Date prior to the Special Vesting Date (or beginning on the first calendar day after the Grant Date if the Special Vesting Date is prior to April 30, 2016) and ending on the Special Vesting Date; divided by

● the number of days in the period beginning on the first calendar day after the most recent Scheduled Vesting Date prior to the Special Vesting Date (or beginning on the first calendar day after the Grant Date if the Special Vesting Date is prior to April 30, 2016) and ending on the Scheduled Vesting Date coincident with or next following the Special Vesting Date.

For purposes of this Agreement, “Disabled” means that Employee has become disabled within the meaning of any of the Company’s plans or programs providing long-term disability benefits to its officers or employees. Any RSUs that have not vested shall remain subject to forfeiture under Section 3 of this Agreement.

3.    Treatment of Award Upon Termination of Service or Failure to Vest. Upon termination of Employee’s Continuous Service for any reason (including death or disability), any portion of the Award that has not yet vested or does not become vested upon such termination as provided in Section 2 or Section 5 of this Agreement and any unvested rights to Dividend Equivalents (as defined in section 10(c)) shall be immediately forfeited, and Employee shall forfeit any and all rights in or to such unvested portion of the Award, including any unvested rights to Dividend Equivalents.

4.    Delivery of Shares. (a) as each portion of the Award vests as provided in Section 2 of this Agreement, the Company shall instruct its transfer agent to issue Shares, either in book entry or stock certificate form, which shall evidence the conversion of such vested RSUs into whole vested Shares, in the name of Employee (or if Employee has died, in the name of Employee’s designated beneficiary or, if no beneficiary has been designated, Employee’s estate (“Beneficiary”)) within a reasonable time after the vesting date of such portion of the Award, but (b) in no event will the Shares relating to the then-vesting portion of the Award be transferred to Employee (or, if applicable, to Employee’s Beneficiary) later than 2 months after the end of the calendar year in which the applicable vesting date for the then-vesting portion of the Award occurs. The Company shall not be required to deliver any fractional Shares under the Award. Any fractional Share shall be rounded up to the next whole Share.

2

5.    Change in Control.

(a)    Vesting and Payment. In the event of a Change in Control (as defined below) during Employee’s Continuous Service, vesting of the Award (including all outstanding unvested RSUs and related Dividend Equivalents) shall automatically accelerate and the Award shall become 100% vested as of the date the Change in Control occurs as long as Employee has remained continuously employed through such dateby the Company or by an entity that is an Affiliate of the Company on the day immediately preceding the date of the Change in Control and/or served as a member of the Company’s Board through such date. In such event, the Shares and Dividend Equivalents payable with respect to the outstanding vested RSUs shall be delivered to Employee in a lump sum (or if Employee has died, in the name of Employee’s Beneficiary) within 60 days following the date of the Change in Control. A “Change in Control” shall mean an event that is a change in the ownership of the Company, a change in the effective control of the Company or a change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets of the Company, all as defined in Code Section 409A and guidance issued thereunder (collectively, “Code Section 409A”), except that 35% shall be substituted for 30% in applying Treasury Regulations Section 1.409A-3(i)(5)(vi) and 50% shall be substituted for 40% in applying Treasury Regulations Section 1.409A-3(i)(5)(vii). Notwithstanding the above, a “Change in Control” shall not include any event that is not treated under Code Section 409A as a change in control event with respect to Employee. Notwithstanding the incorporation of certain provisions from the Treasury Regulations under Code Section 409A, the Company intends that all payments under this Agreement be exempt from Code Section 409A under the exemption for short-term deferrals in Treasury Regulations Section 1.409A-1(b)(4).

(b)    Substitution. Notwithstanding anything set forth herein to the contrary, upon a Change in Control, the Committee, in its sole discretion, may, in lieu of issuing Shares, provide Employee with an equivalent amount payable in the form of cash.

6.    Agreement of Employee. Employee acknowledges that certain restrictions under state or federal securities laws may apply with respect to the Shares to be issued pursuant to the Award. Specifically, Employee acknowledges that, to the extent Employee is an “affiliate” of the Company (as that term is defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933 ("Rule 144")), the Shares to be issued as a result of the Award are subject to certain restrictions under applicable securities laws (including particularly Rule 144). Employee hereby agrees to comply with such state and federal securities laws with respect to any applicable restrictions on the resale of such Shares and to execute such documents and take such actions as the Company may reasonably require in connection therewith.

7.    Withholding. Upon the issuance of Shares to Employee pursuant to this Agreement, Employee shall pay an amount equal to the amount of all applicable federal, state and local employment taxes which the Company is required to withhold at any time. Such payment may be made in cash or, with respect to the issuance of Shares to Employee pursuant to this Agreement, by delivery of whole Shares (including Shares issuable under this Agreement) in accordance with Section 14(a) of the Plan.

3

8.    Adjustment of Awards.

(a)    If there is an increase or decrease in the number of issued and outstanding Shares through the payment of a stock dividend or resulting from a stock split, a recapitalization, or a combination or exchange of Shares, then the number of outstanding RSUs hereunder shall be adjusted so that the proportion of such Award to the Company’s total issued and outstanding Shares remains the same as existed immediately prior to such event.

(b)    If there is spin-off or other similar distribution to the Company's shareholders of stock, the number and type of Shares subject to the Award shall be adjusted by the Committee (which adjustment may include Shares, stock of an Affiliate or former Affiliate, cash or a combination thereof) so that the value of the outstanding Award immediately prior to such event is preserved, as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion. If stock of an Affiliate or former Affiliate becomes subject to the Award as a result of any such adjustment, the terms of the Agreement shall apply to such stock in the same manner as if it were Shares.

(c)    Except as provided in subsections (a) and (b) above, no adjustment in the number of Shares subject to any outstanding portion of the RSUs shall be made upon the issuance by the Company of shares of any class of its capital stock or securities convertible into shares of any class of capital stock, either in connection with a direct sale or upon the exercise of rights or warrants to subscribe therefor, or upon the conversion of any other obligation of the Company that may be convertible into such shares or other securities.

(d)    Upon the occurrence of events affecting Shares other than those specified in subsections (a), (b) and (c) above, the Committee may make such other adjustments to awards as are permitted under Section 5(c) of the Plan. This section shall not be construed as limiting any other rights the Committee may have under the terms of the Plan.

9.    Plan Provisions.

In addition to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Award is subject to and governed by the terms and conditions set forth in the Plan, as may be amended from time to time, which are hereby incorporated by reference. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of the Agreement and the Plan, the Plan shall control. For the avoidance of doubt and without limiting anything herein or in the Plan, Employee hereby acknowledges that the compensation recovery provisions described in Section 14(n) of the Plan apply to the Award granted hereunder and this Agreement.

10.    Miscellaneous.

(a)    Limitation of Rights. The granting of the Award and the execution of the Agreement shall not give Employee any rights to (1) similar grants in future years, (2) any right to be retained in the employ or service of the Company or any Affiliates and/or to serve on the Board of the Company, or (3) interfere in any way with the right of the Company or its Affiliates to terminate Employee’s employment or services at any time.

(b)    Interpretation. Employee accepts this Award subject to all the terms and provisions of the Plan and this Agreement. The undersigned Employee hereby accepts as binding, conclusive and final all decisions or interpretations of the Committee upon any questions arising under the Plan and this Agreement.

4

(c)    Dividend Equivalents. The Award includes the right to receive dividend equivalents (‘Dividend Equivalents’) on the portion, if any, of the Award that becomes vested in accordance with Section 2 or Section 5 of this Agreement. Upon vesting of any portion of the Award in accordance with such sections, Employee shall have a vested right to receive an amount of cash, without interest, equivalent to the dividends, if any, that would have been payable to a shareholder who actually owned the number of Shares equal to the number of then-vesting RSUs from the Grant Date through the day immediately preceding the date on which the Shares payable with respect to the then-vesting portion of the Award are delivered to Employee. Such amount of cash shall be paid on the date that Shares are delivered under the then-vesting portion of the Award.

(d)    Shareholder Rights. Except as set forth in Section 10(c), neither Employee nor Employee’s Beneficiary shall have any of the rights of a shareholder with respect to any Shares issuable upon vesting of any portion this Award, including, without limitation, a right to vote, until (i) such portion of the Award is vested, and (ii) such Shares have been delivered and issued to Employee or Employee’s Beneficiary pursuant to Section 4 or Section 5 of this Agreement.

(e)    Severability. If any term, provision, covenant or restriction contained in the Agreement is held by a court or a federal regulatory agency of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions contained in the Agreement shall remain in full force and effect, and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated.

(f)    Controlling Law. The Agreement is being made in Texas and shall be construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of that state.

(g)    Construction. The Agreement and the Plan contain the entire understanding between the parties, and supersede any prior understanding and agreements between them, representing the subject matter hereof. There are no representations, agreements, arrangements or understandings, oral or written, between and among the parties hereto relating to the subject matter hereof which are not fully expressed herein.

(h)    Headings. Section and other headings contained in the Agreement are for reference purposes only and are in no way intended to describe, interpret, define or limit the scope, extent or intent of the Agreement or any provision hereof.

(i)    Heirs, Successors and Assigns. Each and all of the covenants, terms, provisions and agreements contained herein shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Employee's heirs, legal representatives, successors and assigns.

(j)    Execution/Acceptance. This Agreement may be executed and/or accepted electronically by Employee and/or executed in duplicate counterparts, the production of either of which (including a signature or proof of electronic acceptance) shall be sufficient for all purposes for the proof of the binding terms of this Agreement.

THE REMAINDER OF THIS PAGE IS INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANK.

Reconciliation Of Numerators And Denominators For Basic And Diluted Earnings Per Share

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

^(a)  Includes vested and deferred RSUs of 299 and 309, as well as Director Deferred Shares of 32 for both the three months ended June 30,2015 and 2014, respectively, and included vested and deferred RSUs of 302 and 309, as well as Director Deferred Shares of 32 for both the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

^(b)  On May 15, 2014, the Company called its outstanding 5.25% Convertible Senior Notes due May 15, 2029 that were issued and sold by the Company on May 19, 2009 (the “2029 Convertible Notes”), and the noteholders elected to convert such notes. The Company settled the principal portion of the outstanding 2029 Convertible Notes in cash and issued 747,085 of the Company’s common shares related to the conversion spread. Prior to the repayment of the 2029 Convertible Notes, only the shares related to the conversion spread, not the shares related to the principal payment, were included in weighted average diluted shares because the Company intended to pay the principal portion of the notes in cash.

^(c)  Excludes 117 and 7 anti-dilutive shares for the three months ended June 30,2015 and 2014, respectively, and excludes 239 and 13 anti-dilutive shares for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Anti-dilutive shares for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 includes certain shares applicable to stock-based compensation and potential shares to be delivered to the Company upon settlement of the ASR agreement. When a net loss exists, all potentially dilutive securities are anti-dilutive and are therefore excluded from the dilutive per-share computation.

^(d)  Earnings per share amounts included in this information may not sum due to rounding differences.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Significant Accounting Policies

1. Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements include all of the accounts of Cash America International, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions other than those related to Enova International, Inc. (“Enova”), which previously comprised the Company’s e-commerce segment (as discussed further below), have been eliminated in consolidation. Upon completion of the distribution of approximately 80% of the outstanding shares of Enova common stock to the Company’s shareholders on November 13, 2014 (“Enova Spin-off”), the Company reclassified Enova’s financial results to discontinued operations in the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2014 and for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2014. Intercompany accounts and transactions related to Enova are presented separately between the Company’s continuing and discontinued operations. These accounts and transactions were previously eliminated in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. This presentation detail is included in the financial statements due to the significance of these accounts and transactions. The specific elements are reflected in “Interest income,” “Interest income from note receivable,” “Proceeds from note receivable” and “Dividends received” in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. These reclassifications had no impact on consolidated results previously reported. See Note 2 for further discussion of discontinued operations.

Unless stated otherwise, the discussion of the Company’s business and financial information throughout this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q refers to the Company’s continuing operations and results from continuing operations.

The financial statements presented as of June 30, 2015 and 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. The consolidated balance sheet data as of December 31, 2014 included herein was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”). 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.

The Company has one reportable operating segment, which consists of the Company’s operations. The Company’s primary line of business is pawn lending. A related activity of the pawn lending operations is the disposition of collateral from forfeited pawn loans and the liquidation of a smaller volume of merchandise purchased directly from customers or from third parties. Another component of the Company’s business is originating, arranging, guaranteeing or purchasing consumer loans in some of its locations. The Company also offers check cashing services through its franchised check cashing centers and some Company-owned lending locations, in addition to offering debit cards, which are issued and serviced by a third party, through some of its Company-owned lending locations. In July 2015, the Company ceased offering certain ancillary products and services, including money orders, wire transfers and auto insurance. Because the Company has only one reportable segment, all required financial segment information can be found directly in the consolidated financial statements. The Company evaluates the performance of its reportable segment based on income from operations.

These financial statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.

Goodwill and Other Indefinite Lived Intangible Assets

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 and is not amortized. In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 350-20-35, Goodwill—Subsequent Measurement (“ASC 350”), 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 of a reporting unit below its carrying amount, which would result in impairment. The Company has one reportable operating segment, which serves as the only reporting unit for goodwill assessment.

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’s reporting unit that are discounted using a market participant perspective to determine the fair value of the reporting unit, which is then compared to the carrying value of the reporting unit 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 for the Company’s reporting unit exceeded its carrying value, and, as a result, no impairment was indicated at that date. Therefore, the Company was not required to compare the fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill with the carrying amount of that goodwill in order to determine the amount of a goodwill impairment. As of June 30, 2015, the excess fair value over the carrying value was 9% and represented an increase from 3% as of December 31, 2014, which was shortly after the Enova Spin-off in November 2014. A change in calculation assumptions, such as an increase in the weighted-average cost of capital, would cause the carrying value of the reporting unit to exceed its fair value as of June 30, 2015, which would have resulted in an impairment loss. If all assumptions were held constant, a one percentage point increase in the weighted average cost of capital would have decreased the estimated fair value of the reporting unit to approximately $28.9 million below the carrying value, which would have required the Company to perform additional analysis in accordance with ASC 350 to determine if an impairment existed and could have resulted in an impairment loss.

As part of the goodwill assessment, the Company also considers market capitalization, which is the observable market value of the Company based on the quoted market prices of the Company’s common stock. The Company compares the market capitalization to its carrying value of equity. As of June 30, 2015, the Company’s market capitalization was observed to be lower than the carrying value of equity, although the market capitalization had increased since the Company’s goodwill assessment as of December 31, 2014, which was shortly after the Enova Spin-off in November 2014. The Company believes the observable market value at June 30, 2015 is not a reliable indicator of the Company’s fair value due to the Enova Spin-off, the continued transition of a significant number of investors due to the magnitude of the Enova Spin-off, and the disruption of the Company’s share price following that event. Management believes this disruption is temporary but acknowledges the need to monitor and re-evaluate any future discrepancies between these values and consider the implications for an impairment of goodwill in future periods.

The Company is considered to be at risk for a future impairment of its goodwill in the event of a decline in general economic, market or business conditions or any significant unfavorable changes in the Company’s forecasted revenue, expenses, cash flows, weighted-average cost of capital and/or market transaction multiples. Any of these factors could represent a potential triggering event that would indicate an impairment review should be performed. The Company will continue to monitor for events and circumstances that could negatively impact the key assumptions in determining its fair value.

The Company also performed its annual indefinite-lived intangible asset impairment test as of June 30, 2015. The Company’s indefinite-lived intangible assets consist of trademarks, trade names and licenses and had a carrying amount of $15.0 million as of June 30, 2015. The Company elected to perform a qualitative assessment in accordance with Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2012-02, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment, and determined that no conditions existed that would make it more likely than not that the indefinite-lived intangible assets were impaired. Therefore, no further quantitative assessment was required.

Accounting Standards to be Adopted in Future Periods

In April 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2015-05, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer’s Accounting for Fees Paid in a Cloud Computing Arrangement (“ASU 2015-05”), which defines specific criteria that entities must apply to determine if a cloud computing arrangement includes an in-substance software license. The result of the assessment will direct the entity to apply either software licensing or service contract guidance to record the related fees. ASU 2015-05 is effective for annual periods, including interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2015 and can be prospectively or retrospectively applied. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect that the adoption of ASU 2015-05 will have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, Interest—Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs (“ASU 2015-03”), which requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the related debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. ASU 2015-03 applies to all business entities and 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 does not expect that the adoption of ASU 2015-03 will have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU 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 does not expect that the adoption of ASU 2015-02 will have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) Section A—Summary and Amendments That Create Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) and Other Assets and Deferred Costs—Contracts with Customers (Subtopic 340-40) (“ASU 2014-09”), which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in ASC 605. ASU 2014-09 requires entities to recognize revenue in a way that depicts 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 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. In July 2015, the FASB affirmed its proposal to defer the effective date of ASU 2014-09 by one year. For public business entities, ASU 2014-09 will now be effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted at, but not before, the original effective date, which is for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2016. Entities are permitted to apply ASU 2014-09 either retrospectively or through an alternative transition model. The Company is still assessing the potential impact of ASU 2014-09 on its consolidated financial statements.

[1] Includes vested and deferred RSUs of 299 and 309, as well as Director Deferred Shares of 32 for both the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and included vested and deferred RSUs of 302 and 309, as well as Director Deferred Shares of 32 for both the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

[2] On May 15, 2014, the Company called its outstanding 5.25% Convertible Senior Notes due May 15, 2029 that were issued and sold by the Company on May 19, 2009 (the “2029 Convertible Notes”), and the noteholders elected to convert such notes. The Company settled the principal portion of the outstanding 2029 Convertible Notes in cash and issued 747,085 of the Company’s common shares related to the conversion spread. Prior to the repayment of the 2029 Convertible Notes, only the shares related to the conversion spread, not the shares related to the principal payment, were included in weighted average diluted shares because the Company intended to pay the principal portion of the notes in cash.

[3] Excludes 117 and 7 anti-dilutive shares for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and excludes 239 and 13 anti-dilutive shares for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Anti-dilutive shares for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 includes certain shares applicable to stock-based compensation and potential shares to be delivered to the Company upon settlement of the ASR agreement. When a net loss exists, all potentially dilutive securities are anti-dilutive and are therefore excluded from the dilutive per-share computation.

[4] Earnings per share amounts included in this information may not sum due to rounding differences.

Fair Value Measurements

10. Fair Value Measurements

Recurring Fair Value Measurements

In accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”), 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, other than Level 1, 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):

	June 30,		Fair Value Measurements Using

Investment in equity securities	131,584		—		131,584		—
Total	$	144,422	$	12,259	$	132,163	$	—

Nonqualified Savings Plan-related assets and Deferred Director Shares have an offsetting liability of equal amount, which is included in “Accounts payable and accrued expenses” in the consolidated balance sheets. The Nonqualified Savings Plan-related assets include marketable equity securities, which are classified as Level 1 and based on net asset values. As of June 30,2015, as a result of the Enova Spin-off, the portion of the Deferred Director Shares measured at fair value represented shares of Enova common stock. As of June 30,2015, the Company’s investment in equity securities represents the Company’s available-for-sale shares of Enova common stock that it retained in connection with the Enova Spin-off. See Note 5. The equity securities representing Enova stock, both those included in Deferred Director Shares and investment in equity securities in the table above, are classified as Level 2, as they were not yet registered securities with the SEC as of that date, and accordingly, were not carried at the fair value of the quoted Enova stock prices. The Company valued these shares using the market determined stock price of Enova, less an adjustment factor due to the unregistered nature of the shares.

During the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, there were no transfers of assets in or out of Level 1 or Level 2 fair value measurements.

Fair Value Measurements on a Non-Recurring Basis

The Company measures non-financial assets and liabilities such as property and equipment and intangible assets at fair value on a nonrecurring basis or when events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may be impaired.

Financial Assets and Liabilities Not Measured at Fair Value

The Company’s financial assets and liabilities as of June 30, 2015 and 2014 and December 31, 2014 that are not measured at fair value in the consolidated balance sheets are as follows (dollars in thousands):

Pawn loans generally have maturity periods of less than 90 days. Because of this short maturity period, the carrying value of pawn loans approximates the fair value of these loans.

Short-term loans and installment loans, collectively, represent “Consumer loans, net” on the consolidated balance sheet and are carried net of the allowance for estimated loan losses, which 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 approximates the fair value.

Pawn loan fees and service charges revenue and the related pawn loan fees and service charges receivable is accrued ratably over the term of the loan for the portion of those pawn loans estimated to be collectible. The Company uses historical performance data to determine the collectability of pawn loan fees and service charges receivable. Additionally, pawn loan fee and service charge rates are determined by regulations and bear no valuation relationship to the capital markets’ interest rate movements. Therefore, the carrying value approximates the fair value.

In connection with its CSO programs, the Company guarantees consumer loan payment obligations to unrelated third-party lenders for short-term loans, unsecured installment loans and installment loans secured by the customer’s vehicle and is required to purchase any defaulted loans it has guaranteed. 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 approximate the fair value.

The Company measures the fair value of long-term debt instruments using Level 2 inputs. The fair values of the Company’s long-term debt instruments are estimated based on market values for debt issues with similar characteristics or rates currently available for debt with similar terms. As of June 30, 2015, the 2018 Senior Notes had a higher fair market value than the carrying value due to the difference in yield when compared to recent issuances of similar senior unsecured notes.

Consumer Loans, Credit Quality Information And Allowances And Liabilities For Estimated Losses On Consumer Loans [Abstract]

Consumer Loans, Credit Quality Information on Consumer Loans, Allowance and Liability for Estimated Losses on Consumer Loans and Guarantees of Consumer Loans

4. Consumer Loans, Credit Quality Information on Consumer Loans, Allowance and Liability for Estimated Losses on Consumer Loans and Guarantees of Consumer Loans

Current and Delinquent Consumer Loans

The Company classifies its consumer loans 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. Installment loans are considered delinquent when a customer misses two payments. The Company allows for normal payment processing time before considering a loan delinquent but does not provide for any additional grace period.

The Company generally does not accrue interest on delinquent consumer loans. In addition, delinquent consumer loans generally may not be renewed, and if, during its attempt to collect on a delinquent consumer 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 Consumer Loans

The Company monitors the performance of its consumer loan portfolio and maintains either an allowance or liability for estimated losses on consumer loans (including earned fees and interest) at a level estimated to be adequate to absorb credit losses inherent in the portfolio. The allowance for estimated losses on the Company’s owned consumer loans reduces the outstanding loan balance in the consolidated balance sheets. The liability for estimated losses related to loans guaranteed under the Company’s credit services organization and credit access business programs (“CSO programs”) is included in “Accounts payable and accrued expenses” in the consolidated balance sheets. Increases or decreases in the allowance and the liability for estimated losses are reduced by charge-offs and increased by recoveries and recorded as “Consumer loan loss provision” in the consolidated statements of income.

In determining the allowance or liability for estimated losses on consumer loans, the Company applies a documented systematic methodology. In calculating the allowance or liability for loan losses, outstanding loans are divided into discrete groups of short-term loans and installment loans and are analyzed as current or delinquent.

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 installment loans, 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 or charges off consumer loans once the loan has been classified as delinquent for 60 days. If a loan is estimated to be uncollectible before it is fully reserved, it is charged off at that point. Consumer loans classified as delinquent generally have an age of one to 59 days from the date the loan became delinquent, as defined above. Recoveries on loans previously charged to the allowance, including the sale of delinquent loans to unaffiliated third parties, are credited to the allowance when collected or when sold to a third party.

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

Credit Quality Information On Pawn Loans [Abstract]

Credit Quality Information On Pawn Loans

3. Credit Quality Information on Pawn Loans

In its pawn loan portfolio, the Company monitors the type and adequacy of collateral compared to historical forfeiture rates, average loan amounts and gross profit margins, among other factors. If a pawn loan defaults, the Company relies on the disposition of forfeited merchandise to recover the principal amount of an unpaid pawn loan, plus a yield on the investment, because the Company’s pawn loans are non-recourse against the customer. In addition, the customer’s creditworthiness does not affect the Company’s financial position or results of operations. Generally, forfeited merchandise has historically sold for an amount in excess of the carrying value of the merchandise. Goods pledged to secure pawn loans are tangible personal property items such as jewelry, tools, televisions and other electronics, musical instruments and other miscellaneous items.

A pawn loan is considered delinquent if the customer does not repay or, where allowed by law, renew or extend the loan on or prior to its contractual maturity date plus any applicable grace period. Therefore, the balance of “Pawn loans” in the consolidated balance sheets includes delinquent loans that are in the process of being moved to merchandise held for disposition but have not yet been transferred. Pawn loan fees and service charges do not accrue on delinquent pawn loans. When a pawn loan is considered delinquent, any accrued pawn loan fees and service charges are reversed and no additional pawn loan fees and service charges are accrued. As of June 30, 2015 and 2014 and December 31, 2014, the Company had current pawn loans outstanding of $239.2 million, $254.2 million and $244.1 million, respectively, and delinquent pawn loans outstanding of $8.2 million, $9.5 million and $8.0 million, respectively.

Accelerated Share Repurchase Program

On January 28, 2015, the Board of Directors of the Company authorized a new share repurchase program for the repurchase of up to 4.0 million shares of the Company’s common stock (the “2015 Authorization”) and canceled the Company’s previous share repurchase authorization from January 2013 (the “2013 Authorization”). During the six months ended June 30, 2015, the Company purchased 2,332,230 shares under the 2015 Authorization for a total investment of $57.0 million, including commissions. This included the purchase of 1,648,000 shares in open market transactions, in addition to 684,230 shares under an accelerated share repurchase (“ASR”) agreement.

In May 2015, the Company entered into an ASR agreement with a financial institution. Under the ASR agreement, the Company paid$22.0 million in cash to the financial institution on May 14, 2015 and received an initial delivery of684,230shares that were valued at$18.7 million, based on the then-current market price of the Company’s stock. The payment to the financial institution was recorded as two separate transactions: an initial treasury stock transaction and a forward contract indexed to the Company’s common stock. The initial treasury stock transaction was recorded as an $18.7 million increase in treasury shares. The ASR forward contract was recorded as a $3.3 million decrease to additional paid-in capital and reflects the estimated value of stock to be delivered upon final settlement. The initial delivery of shares resulted in an immediate reduction of the outstanding shares used to calculate the weighted average common shares outstanding for basic and diluted earnings per share.

Final settlement of the ASR agreement is expected to take place in the third quarter of 2015. The number of shares of the Company’s common stock that the Company may receive, or may be required to remit, upon settlement under the ASR agreement will be based on the average daily volume weighted average price, less an agreed upon discount, of the Company’s common stock during the duration of the ASR agreement. The terms of the ASR agreement are subject to change if the Company were to enter into or announce certain types of transactions. If the Company is obligated to make an adjustment payment to the financial institution upon settlement of the ASR agreement, the Company may elect to satisfy its obligation in cash or in shares of the Company’s common stock.

Investments in Enova

5. Investment in Enova

Upon completion of the Enova Spin-off, the Company retained approximately 20 percent, or 6,596,927 shares of Enova common stock, and the Company has agreed, pursuant to a private letter ruling it obtained in connection with the Enova Spin-off, to dispose of its retained shares of Enova common stock (other than the shares retained for delivery under the Company’s long-term incentive plans (the “LTIPs”) as described below) no later than two years after the date of the Enova Spin-off. Of the 6,521,463 shares owned at June 30, 2015, the Company has allocated 556,990 of its retained shares for delivery under the LTIPs that existed prior to the Enova Spin-off, making the Company’s residual ownership in Enova approximately 18 percent of the outstanding Enova common stock as of June 30, 2015. See table below for additional information.

All of the retained shares of Enova common stock (including shares retained for delivery under the Company’s LTIPs as described below) are classified as “available-for-sale securities” in accordance with ASC 320, Investments-Debt and Equity Securities (“ASC 320”). The Company does not account for its investment in Enova common stock under the equity method for the following reasons. The Company does not have the ability to significantly influence the strategy or the operating or financial policies of Enova. The Company does not share employees or management with Enova and does not participate in any policy-making process of Enova. The Company does not have the right to vote on matters put before Enova stockholders as it has granted Enova a proxy to vote its shares in the same proportion as the other stockholders of Enova on all such matters. In addition, the Company has agreed to divest its ownership in Enova within two years following the Enova Spin-off. While the Company’s Chief Executive Officer serves as one of seven members of Enova’s Board of Directors, he does not serve on any committees of Enova’s Board of Directors, and the Company is not able to influence his future election to Enova’s Board of Directors because it does not have voting power with respect to the shares of Enova that it owns. The Company also does not have any material business relationships with Enova.

The retained shares of Enova common stock include a portion of shares of Enova common stock that may be delivered by the Company to holders of certain outstanding unvested restricted stock units (“RSUs”), vested deferred RSUs, and unvested deferred RSUs that were granted by the Company under the LTIPs to certain of its officers, directors and employees, as well as shares that are deliverable to certain directors who have elected to defer a portion of their director fees to be paid in the form of common stock of the Company (“Director Deferred Shares”), if such equity awards and Director Deferred Shares were outstanding under the LTIPs on the date of the Enova Spin-off.

Such RSU awards and Director Deferred Shares will be payable by the Company in both shares of Company common stock and Enova common stock, subject to the terms of the LTIPs and/or the applicable award agreement. The delivery of the Enova shares of common stock will occur periodically based on the vesting or deferral terms that are applicable to the RSU awards or Director Deferred Shares. In the event the award does not vest, the Enova shares will be retained by the Company and sold.

As of June 30, 2015, the Company’s cost basis in its investment in Enova common stock was approximately $20.0 million, and an unrealized gain of approximately $89.1 million was included in “Accumulated other comprehensive income.” For the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, the Company recognized a gain of approximately $1.1 million and $1.2 million, respectively, for the disposition of Enova common stock as a result of the issuance of shares under LTIP agreements. The Company’s investment in Enova common stock is included in “Investment in equity securities” in the consolidated balance sheets. Activity during the six months endedJune 30, 2015 for the Enova shares retained by the Company is shown below (shares in ones):

	Enova Shares Attributed to the Company (a)		Potential Enova Shares to be Delivered Under the LTIPs		Total Enova Shares Held by the Company

Long-Term Debt

Long-term Debt, Unclassified [Abstract]

Long-Term Debt

6. Long-term Debt

The Company had outstanding long-term debt balances of $184.5 million, $300.0 million, and $196.5 million as of June 30, 2015 and 2014 and December 31, 2014, which consisted entirely of outstanding balances on the Company’s $300.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 5.75% senior notes due 2018 (the “2018 Senior Notes”).

Domestic and Multi-Currency Line

The Company and its domestic subsidiaries as guarantors have a credit agreement with a syndicate of financial institutions as lenders that was entered into on March 30, 2011 and later amended (the “Credit Agreement”). The Credit Agreement provides for a domestic and multi-currency line of credit in an aggregate principal amount of up to $280.0 million permitting revolving credit loans, including a multi-currency subfacility that gives the Company the ability to borrow up to $50.0 million that may be in specified foreign currencies, subject to the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement (the “Domestic and Multi-currency Line of Credit”). The Credit Agreement contains an accordion feature whereby the revolving line of credit may be increased up to an additional $100.0 million with the consent of any increasing lenders.

Interest on the Domestic and Multi-currency Line of Credit is 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 2.00% to 3.25% or at the agent’s base rate plus a margin varying from 0.50% to 1.75%. The margin for the Domestic and Multi-currency Line of Credit is dependent on the Company’s cash flow leverage ratios as defined in the Credit Agreement. The Company also pays a fee on the unused portion of the Domestic and Multi-currency Line of Credit ranging from 0.25% to 0.50% (0.25% as of June 30, 2015) based on the Company’s cash flow leverage ratios.

The Company had no borrowings outstanding under the Domestic and Multi-currency Line of Credit as of June 30, 2015 and 2014 and December 31, 2014. The Company may routinely refinance its borrowings pursuant to the terms of its Domestic and Multi-currency Line of Credit. Therefore, these borrowings would be considered part of the applicable line of credit and as long-term debt.

Letter of Credit Facility

When the Company entered into the Credit Agreement, it also entered into a Standby Letter of Credit Agreement (the “LC Agreement”) for the issuance of up to $20.0 million in letters of credit (the “Letter of Credit Facility”) that is guaranteed by the Company’s domestic subsidiaries and matures on March 31, 2018. In the event that an amount is paid by the issuing bank under a stand-by letter of credit, it will be due and payable by the Company on demand, and amounts due by the Company under the LC Agreement will bear interest annually at a rate that is the lesser of (a) 2% above the prime rate for Wells Fargo Bank, National Association or (b) the maximum rate of interest permissible under applicable laws. The LC Agreement also requires the Company to pay quarterly fees equal to the applicable margin set forth in the LC Agreement on the undrawn amount of the credit outstanding. The Company had standby letters of credit of $9.5 million under its Letter of Credit Facility as of June 30, 2015.

$300.0 million 5.75% Senior Unsecured Notes

On May 15, 2013, the Company issued and sold $300.0 million in aggregate principal amount of the 2018 Senior Notes. The 2018 Senior Notes bear interest at a rate of 5.75% annually on the principal amount, payable semi-annually in arrears on May 15 and November 15 of each year. The 2018 Senior Notes will mature on May 15, 2018, and there are no scheduled payments of principal due before the maturity date. The 2018 Senior Notes were sold to qualified institutional buyers in accordance with Rule 144A under 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 purchasers when the 2018 Senior Notes were issued, the Company completed an exchange offer with respect to the 2018 Senior Notes in January 2014. All of the unregistered 2018 Senior Notes have been exchanged for identical new notes registered under the Securities Act.

The 2018 Senior Notes are senior unsecured debt obligations of the Company and are guaranteed by all of the Company’s subsidiaries (the “Guarantors”). The Guarantors have guaranteed fully and unconditionally, on a joint and several basis, the obligations to pay principal and interest for the 2018 Senior Notes. As of June 30, 2015, Cash America International, Inc., on a stand-alone unconsolidated basis (the “Parent Company”), had no independent assets or operations. As of June 30, 2015, the Guarantors represent all of the subsidiaries of the Company, and all of the Guarantors were 100% owned by the Company. The domestic Guarantors under the 2018 Senior Notes are also guarantors under the Credit Agreement. The Indenture, dated as of May 15, 2013, that governs the 2018 Senior Notes, among the Company, the guarantors party thereto and the trustee (“2018 Senior Notes Indenture”), provides that if any of the Guarantors is released from its guarantees of the Company’s borrowings and obligations under the Credit Agreement, that Guarantor’s guaranty of the 2018 Senior Notes will also be released.

The 2018 Senior Notes are redeemable at the Company’s option, in whole or in part, at any time at 100% of the aggregate principal amount of 2018 Senior Notes redeemed plus the applicable “make whole” redemption price specified in the 2018 Senior Notes Indenture, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the redemption date. In addition, if a change of control occurs, as that term is defined in the 2018 Senior Notes Indenture, the holders of 2018 Senior Notes will have the right, subject to certain conditions, to require the Company to repurchase their 2018 Senior Notes at a purchase price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of 2018 Senior Notes repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, as of the date of repurchase.

As of June 30, 2015, the outstanding balance of the 2018 Senior Notes was $184.5 million, compared to $300.0 million as of June 30, 2014. For the three months ended June 30, 2015, the Company repurchased $12.0 million principal amount of the 2018 Senior Notes for cash consideration of $12.4 million. In connection with these purchases, the Company recorded a loss on early extinguishment of debt of approximately $0.6 million, which consisted of $0.4 million in premium paid and $0.2 million in expense for the write-off of deferred loan costs. The loss is included in “Loss on early extinguishment of debt” in the consolidated statements of income.

Debt Agreement Compliance

The debt agreements for the Domestic and Multi-currency Line of Credit and the 2018 Senior Notes require the Company to maintain certain financial ratios. As ofJune 30, 2015, the Company believes it was in compliance with all covenants or other requirements set forth in its debt agreements.

On June 26, 2015, Wilmington Savings Fund Society, FSB, as trustee (the “Trustee”) under the 2018 Senior Notes Indenture that governs the 2018 Senior Notes, filed a lawsuit against the Company in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. The lawsuit alleges that the Enova Spin-off was not permitted by the 2018 Senior Notes Indenture, and the Trustee is seeking a remedy equal to principal and accrued and unpaid interest, plus a make-whole premium, to be paid to the holders of the 2018 Senior Notes. The Company disagrees with the assertion in the lawsuit that the Enova Spin-off was not permitted under the 2018 Senior Notes Indenture. The Company also disagrees that a make-whole premium would be due to the holders of the 2018 Senior Notes even if it is determined that the Enova Spin-off was not permitted under the 2018 Senior Notes Indenture. The Company believes the position taken by the Trustee is without merit, and the Company intends to vigorously defend its position. Regardless of the outcome of this claim, the Company has ample liquidity and capital resources to sustain its ongoing operations and to repay the 2018 Senior Notes, including any make-whole premium on the 2018 Senior Notes, if such a premium were to be finally determined to be payable, notwithstanding the Company’s belief that such a premium is not payable. The Company’s sources of liquidity include availability under the Domestic and Multi-currency Line of Credit, which had $280.0 million in availability and was undrawn as of June 30, 2015. As of June 30, 2015, the Company had no outstanding indebtedness other than the $184.5 million in aggregate principal amount of 2018 Senior Notes outstanding.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]

Net Income Per Share

8. Net Income Per Share

Basic net income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income 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. When a net loss exists, all potentially dilutive securities are anti-dilutive and are therefore excluded from the diluted per-share computation.

RSUs issued under the Company’s stock-based employee compensation plans are included in diluted shares from the grant date of the award. The dilutive effect of performance-based RSU awards is adjusted at each balance sheet date throughout the requisite service period based on the level of performance that management estimates is the most probable at that date.

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

^(a)  Includes vested and deferred RSUs of 299 and 309, as well as Director Deferred Shares of 32 for both the three months ended June 30,2015 and 2014, respectively, and included vested and deferred RSUs of 302 and 309, as well as Director Deferred Shares of 32 for both the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

^(b)  On May 15, 2014, the Company called its outstanding 5.25% Convertible Senior Notes due May 15, 2029 that were issued and sold by the Company on May 19, 2009 (the “2029 Convertible Notes”), and the noteholders elected to convert such notes. The Company settled the principal portion of the outstanding 2029 Convertible Notes in cash and issued 747,085 of the Company’s common shares related to the conversion spread. Prior to the repayment of the 2029 Convertible Notes, only the shares related to the conversion spread, not the shares related to the principal payment, were included in weighted average diluted shares because the Company intended to pay the principal portion of the notes in cash.

^(c)  Excludes 117 and 7 anti-dilutive shares for the three months ended June 30,2015 and 2014, respectively, and excludes 239 and 13 anti-dilutive shares for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Anti-dilutive shares for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 includes certain shares applicable to stock-based compensation and potential shares to be delivered to the Company upon settlement of the ASR agreement. When a net loss exists, all potentially dilutive securities are anti-dilutive and are therefore excluded from the dilutive per-share computation.

^(d)  Earnings per share amounts included in this information may not sum due to rounding differences.

2. Discontinued Operations

On November 13, 2014, the Company completed the Enova Spin-off by distributing net assets of $79.6 million through a distribution of Enova common shares to the Company’s shareholders. The Enova Spin-off was part of the Company’s strategy to focus on its core pawn operations business, and consequently, the net assets, operating results, and cash flows of the Company’s previously-held Enova business are presented separately as discontinued operations for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2014 and as of June 30, 2014.

Enova is now a stand-alone public company that separately reports its financial results. Due to differences between the basis of presentation for discontinued operations and the basis of presentation as a stand-alone

company, the financial results of Enova included within discontinued operations for the Company may not be indicative of actual financial results of Enova as a stand-alone company.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Basis Of Presentation

Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements include all of the accounts of Cash America International, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions other than those related to Enova International, Inc. (“Enova”), which previously comprised the Company’s e-commerce segment (as discussed further below), have been eliminated in consolidation. Upon completion of the distribution of approximately 80% of the outstanding shares of Enova common stock to the Company’s shareholders on November 13, 2014 (“Enova Spin-off”), the Company reclassified Enova’s financial results to discontinued operations in the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2014 and for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2014. Intercompany accounts and transactions related to Enova are presented separately between the Company’s continuing and discontinued operations. These accounts and transactions were previously eliminated in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. This presentation detail is included in the financial statements due to the significance of these accounts and transactions. The specific elements are reflected in “Interest income,” “Interest income from note receivable,” “Proceeds from note receivable” and “Dividends received” in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. These reclassifications had no impact on consolidated results previously reported. See Note 2 for further discussion of discontinued operations.

Unless stated otherwise, the discussion of the Company’s business and financial information throughout this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q refers to the Company’s continuing operations and results from continuing operations.

The financial statements presented as of June 30, 2015 and 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. The consolidated balance sheet data as of December 31, 2014 included herein was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”). 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.

The Company has one reportable operating segment, which consists of the Company’s operations. The Company’s primary line of business is pawn lending. A related activity of the pawn lending operations is the disposition of collateral from forfeited pawn loans and the liquidation of a smaller volume of merchandise purchased directly from customers or from third parties. Another component of the Company’s business is originating, arranging, guaranteeing or purchasing consumer loans in some of its locations. The Company also offers check cashing services through its franchised check cashing centers and some Company-owned lending locations, in addition to offering debit cards, which are issued and serviced by a third party, through some of its Company-owned lending locations. In July 2015, the Company ceased offering certain ancillary products and services, including money orders, wire transfers and auto insurance. Because the Company has only one reportable segment, all required financial segment information can be found directly in the consolidated financial statements. The Company evaluates the performance of its reportable segment based on income from operations.

These financial statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Goodwill and Other Indefinite Lived Intangible Assets

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 and is not amortized. In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 350-20-35, Goodwill—Subsequent Measurement (“ASC 350”), 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 of a reporting unit below its carrying amount, which would result in impairment. The Company has one reportable operating segment, which serves as the only reporting unit for goodwill assessment.

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’s reporting unit that are discounted using a market participant perspective to determine the fair value of the reporting unit, which is then compared to the carrying value of the reporting unit 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 for the Company’s reporting unit exceeded its carrying value, and, as a result, no impairment was indicated at that date. Therefore, the Company was not required to compare the fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill with the carrying amount of that goodwill in order to determine the amount of a goodwill impairment. As of June 30, 2015, the excess fair value over the carrying value was 9% and represented an increase from 3% as of December 31, 2014, which was shortly after the Enova Spin-off in November 2014. A change in calculation assumptions, such as an increase in the weighted-average cost of capital, would cause the carrying value of the reporting unit to exceed its fair value as of June 30, 2015, which would have resulted in an impairment loss. If all assumptions were held constant, a one percentage point increase in the weighted average cost of capital would have decreased the estimated fair value of the reporting unit to approximately $28.9 million below the carrying value, which would have required the Company to perform additional analysis in accordance with ASC 350 to determine if an impairment existed and could have resulted in an impairment loss.

As part of the goodwill assessment, the Company also considers market capitalization, which is the observable market value of the Company based on the quoted market prices of the Company’s common stock. The Company compares the market capitalization to its carrying value of equity. As of June 30, 2015, the Company’s market capitalization was observed to be lower than the carrying value of equity, although the market capitalization had increased since the Company’s goodwill assessment as of December 31, 2014, which was shortly after the Enova Spin-off in November 2014. The Company believes the observable market value at June 30, 2015 is not a reliable indicator of the Company’s fair value due to the Enova Spin-off, the continued transition of a significant number of investors due to the magnitude of the Enova Spin-off, and the disruption of the Company’s share price following that event. Management believes this disruption is temporary but acknowledges the need to monitor and re-evaluate any future discrepancies between these values and consider the implications for an impairment of goodwill in future periods.

The Company is considered to be at risk for a future impairment of its goodwill in the event of a decline in general economic, market or business conditions or any significant unfavorable changes in the Company’s forecasted revenue, expenses, cash flows, weighted-average cost of capital and/or market transaction multiples. Any of these factors could represent a potential triggering event that would indicate an impairment review should be performed. The Company will continue to monitor for events and circumstances that could negatively impact the key assumptions in determining its fair value.

The Company also performed its annual indefinite-lived intangible asset impairment test as of June 30, 2015. The Company’s indefinite-lived intangible assets consist of trademarks, trade names and licenses and had a carrying amount of $15.0 million as of June 30, 2015. The Company elected to perform a qualitative assessment in accordance with Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2012-02, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment, and determined that no conditions existed that would make it more likely than not that the indefinite-lived intangible assets were impaired. Therefore, no further quantitative assessment was required.

Accounting Standards to be Adopted in Future Periods

Accounting Standards to be Adopted in Future Periods

In April 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2015-05, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer’s Accounting for Fees Paid in a Cloud Computing Arrangement (“ASU 2015-05”), which defines specific criteria that entities must apply to determine if a cloud computing arrangement includes an in-substance software license. The result of the assessment will direct the entity to apply either software licensing or service contract guidance to record the related fees. ASU 2015-05 is effective for annual periods, including interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2015 and can be prospectively or retrospectively applied. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect that the adoption of ASU 2015-05 will have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, Interest—Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs (“ASU 2015-03”), which requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the related debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. ASU 2015-03 applies to all business entities and 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 does not expect that the adoption of ASU 2015-03 will have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU 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 does not expect that the adoption of ASU 2015-02 will have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) Section A—Summary and Amendments That Create Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) and Other Assets and Deferred Costs—Contracts with Customers (Subtopic 340-40) (“ASU 2014-09”), which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in ASC 605. ASU 2014-09 requires entities to recognize revenue in a way that depicts 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 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. In July 2015, the FASB affirmed its proposal to defer the effective date of ASU 2014-09 by one year. For public business entities, ASU 2014-09 will now be effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted at, but not before, the original effective date, which is for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2016. Entities are permitted to apply ASU 2014-09 either retrospectively or through an alternative transition model. The Company is still assessing the potential impact of ASU 2014-09 on its consolidated financial statements.
