Cash America Anticipates Full Year 2011 Earnings Per Share to Be up 16%

FORT WORTH, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--January 17, 2012--Cash America International, Inc. (NYSE: CSH) announced today that it anticipates earnings per share for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011 will be approximately $4.25 per share, up 16% compared to the fiscal 2010 earnings per share of $3.67. The Company’s estimated results for its full year 2011 earnings per share is below its July 21, 2011 published expected range of between $4.28 and $4.48 per share. The Company’s outlook for earnings expectations has not been updated since July 2011 due to the filing of a Registration Statement on Form S-1 with the Securities and Exchange Commission by the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary that comprises its E-commerce segment, Enova International, Inc., on September 15, 2011 in connection with a proposed initial public offering of Enova common stock by the Company and Enova. The Registration Statement has not yet become effective.

The Company expects revenue growth to exceed 25% for the fourth quarter of 2011 compared to the prior-year fourth quarter, representing the largest year-over-year quarterly increase during 2011. The revenue increase is due to growth in asset balances of both pawn and consumer loans, as well as a significant increase in revenue from the disposition of merchandise during the quarter. The Company experienced increases in demand from non-U.S. customers for both its short-term loan products and its longer-term installment loan products offered through its online channel, which led to a significant increase in asset balances and a commensurate increase in loan loss provision during the fourth quarter of 2011. While revenue associated with all online consumer loans increased over 40% during the fourth quarter of 2011 compared to the prior-year fourth quarter, the requirement to immediately establish a reserve for loan losses and absorb all marketing and customer acquisition costs constrained marginal profitability gains. Higher than expected store level operating costs during the holiday selling period and lower than expected gross profit margin on the retail disposition of merchandise further constrained profitability growth in the quarter. In addition, the Company incurred a variety of one-time and unusual operating expenses during the fourth quarter associated with the proposed Enova initial public offering and other expense items from the closing of an acquisition.

Cash America will conduct a conference call to discuss its fourth quarter earnings on Thursday, January 26, 2012 at 7:00 AM CST. A live webcast of the call will be available on the Company’s corporate web site in the Investor Relations section (www.cashamerica.com). To listen to the live call, please go to the web site at least fifteen minutes early to register, download, and install any necessary audio software.
