Exhibit 99.1
Cash America Announces First Quarter Earnings Per Share Increase and Declares Dividend
FORT WORTH, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 30, 2015--Cash America International, Inc. (NYSE: CSH) announced today that net income from continuing operations for the three-month period ended March 31, 2015 increased to $7,845,000 ($0.27 per share) compared to net income of $3,237,000 ($0.11 per share) for the same period in 2014. Included in the reported net income during the 2015 period are expenses related to closed locations primarily related to the deemphasis of consumer loan products and severance expenses related to administrative and operations staff reductions that totaled $1.4 million before taxes ($854 thousand, or 3 cents per share, after taxes). When excluding these expenses, adjusted net income from continuing operations, a non-GAAP measure, was $8.7 million (30 cents per share) for the three months ended March 31, 2015, which is at the high end of the Company’s published guidance of expected net income per share of between 20 cents and 30 cents per share from its press release dated January 29, 2015. Included in the results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2014 were expenses primarily related to the early extinguishment of debt of $1.8 million before taxes ($1.1 million, or 4 cents per share, after taxes). Excluding these expenses, adjusted net income from continuing operations, a non-GAAP measure, for the three months ended March 31, 2014 was $4.4 million (15 cents per share).
Consolidated total revenue was $271.8 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2015 compared to $284.6 million in the same period in 2014. Consolidated net revenue was $147.1 million during the first quarter of 2015, compared to $152.5 million for the first quarter of the previous year. The Company’s net revenue from domestic operations of $147.1 million for the first quarter of 2015 compares to $149.7 million for the first quarter of 2014, with the $2.6 million decrease almost entirely attributable to lower levels of consumer loan fees, net of losses, due to the strategic decision to eliminate the consumer loan product in over 300 of the Company’s lending locations during 2014. Consumer loan fees represented only 7% of the Company’s total revenue of $271.8 million for the first three months of 2015.
On January 29, 2015, the Company announced that its Board of Directors approved a 4 million share repurchase authorization. During the first quarter ended March 31, 2015, the Company repurchased 1,148,000 shares, representing approximately 4% of the fully diluted shares for the year ended December 31, 2014, at an average price of $22.03 per share in open market transactions.
Commenting on the first quarter results, Daniel R. Feehan, Chief Executive Officer of Cash America, said, “Our objectives in the first three months of 2015 were to emphasize the retail disposition of goods and to narrow the year-over-year decrease in our domestic pawn loan balance comparison coming out of tax refund season. We were successful on both of these objectives. Retail sales of goods within our store locations increased 7% in the first quarter of 2015 compared to the same period in 2014. Domestic pawn loan balances ended the period at $210.1 million at March 31, 2015, compared to $212.9 million during the same period in 2014, which was 1% below the prior year, but evidencing a favorable sequential trend as we started the period down 2% as of December 31, 2014.”
Cash America will host a conference call to discuss the first quarter results on Thursday, April 30, 2015, at 7:00 AM CDT. A live web cast of the call will be available on the Investor Relations section of the Company’s corporate web site http://www.cashamerica.com. To listen to the live call, please go to the web site at least fifteen minutes prior to the call to register, download, and install any necessary audio software.
Additionally, the Company announced that the Board of Directors, at its regularly scheduled quarterly meeting, declared a $0.05 (5 cents) per share cash dividend on common shares outstanding. The dividend will be paid at the close of business on May 27, 2015 to shareholders of record on May 13, 2015. This dividend per share is consistent with the dividend amount per share paid in February 2015 and represents an increase of 43% from the dividend paid last year in May of $0.035 (3.5 cents per share).
Outlook for the Second Quarter of 2015 and the 2015 Fiscal Year
Management believes that the opportunities for sustained growth in revenue and earnings will be largely associated with the customer demand for the credit products provided by the Company, which predominately take the form of pawn loans and to a lesser extent consumer loans. During the first quarter of 2015, the typical seasonal decline in loan balances was consistent with what the Company experienced during the first quarter of 2014, even though the Federal Income Tax refund season began a few weeks earlier than the Company anticipated. Typically, customers use a portion of these refunds to pay back existing loans and for the purchase of merchandise. At the outset of the second quarter the Company expects loan balances to begin to recover due to seasonal factors. The rate of this increase and the timing has a significant influence on second quarter results. Based on its views on the preceding factors, management expects that the second quarter 2015 earnings per share for continuing operations will be between 1 cent and 5 cents per share compared to a loss of 8 cents per share from continuing operations in the second quarter 2014, which excludes 33 cents per share mostly related to the early extinguishment of debt incurred in that period.
At this time, management leaves its previously reported expectations for its fiscal year 2015 adjusted EBITDA range of between $110 to $125 million, which management estimates will generate between $0.80 to $1.10 in net income per share from continuing operations. This compares to a reported net loss from continuing operations of 36 cents per share that included unusual items during the year ended 2014 that totaled 87 cents per share related primarily to the early extinguishment of debt, a loss on divestitures and the corporate reorganization costs. Adding back the unusual items incurred during 2014, adjusted net income from continuing operations, a non-GAAP measure, for the year ended December 31, 2014 would have been 51 cents per share.
About the Company
As of March 31, 2015 the Company operated 927 total locations offering specialty financial services to consumers, which included the following:

These measures are not in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“Non-GAAP”). Refer to the table below for a reconciliation of non-GAAP measures to those measures in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”). |
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.
Management believes these 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. The comparison of the aggregate amounts from period to period is more meaningful than comparing only the residual amount on the Company’s balance sheet since both revenue and the loss provision for loans are impacted by the aggregate amount of loans owned by the Company and those guaranteed by the Company as reflected in its financial statements. The following table summarizes consumer loan balances outstanding as of March 31, 2015 and 2014 (dollars in thousands):

GAAP measure. The consumer loan balances guaranteed by the Company represent loans originated by third-party lenders through the Company’s credit services organization and credit access business 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 its consolidated balance sheets. |
(b) |
Except for allowance and liability for estimated losses, amounts represent non-GAAP measures. |

NON-GAAP DISCLOSURE |
Non-GAAP Disclosure
In addition to the financial information prepared in conformity with GAAP, the Company provides historical non-GAAP financial information. Management believes that presentation of non-GAAP financial information is meaningful and useful in understanding the activities and business metrics of the Company’s operations. Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures reflect an additional way of viewing aspects of the Company’s business that, when viewed with its GAAP results, provide a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting its business.
The Company has provided certain 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, equity in earnings or loss of unconsolidated subsidiary, gain on sale of equity securities, taxes and including the net income or loss attributable to noncontrolling interests. Management believes that the presentation of these measures provides investors with greater transparency and facilitates comparison of operating results across a broad spectrum of companies with varying capital structures, compensation strategies, derivative instruments and amortization methods, which provides a more complete understanding of the Company’s financial performance, competitive position and prospects for the future. Management also believes these measures are used by investors to analyze operating performance, evaluate the Company’s ability to incur and service debt and its capacity for making capital expenditures, and to help assess the Company’s estimated enterprise value. Management believes that investors regularly rely on non-GAAP financial measures, such as the Adjusted Earnings Measures and adjusted EBITDA, to assess operating performance and that such measures 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 believes 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 following items, which management believes are less frequent in nature:
CASH AMERICA INTERNATIONAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES |
NON-GAAP DISCLOSURE |
Management believes the non-GAAP measures, including these adjustments, provide a more reliable indicator of ongoing operating performance, provide more meaningful period-to-period comparisons of operating results, both internally and against 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.
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.
