Unless otherwise noted, all amounts in this release are in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and comparisons shown are to the same period in the prior year. THIRD QUARTER HIGHLIGHTS Net income attributable to EZCORP increased 44% to $38.2 million. On an adjusted basis1, net income attributable to EZCORP increased 52% to $37.2 million. Diluted earnings per share (EPS) increased 41% to $0.48. On an adjusted basis1, diluted earnings per share increased 47% to $0.47. Adjusted EBITDA increased 48% to $65.6 million. Total revenues increased 35% to $418.7 million, while gross profit increased 34% to $246.2 million. Pawn loans outstanding (PLO) increased 33% to $387.2 million. We acquired the remaining interest in Founders and SMG in a series of transactions throughout the third quarter and July 2026. We grew our footprint by 43 stores. CEO COMMENTARY AND OUTLOOK Lachie Given, Chief Executive Officer, stated, “This was another outstanding quarter for EZCORP, one of the strongest in our history. PLO reached a new high of $387.2 million, adjusted EBITDA increased 48%, and diluted EPS rose 41%. The gains were well balanced in all of our geographies across lending, merchandise sales and margin, gold scrap and profitability. Importantly, excluding scrap, gross profit increased 32%, underscoring the depth, durability and trajectory of our business. “A key highlight for the quarter has been the outstanding performance of our Latin American business, with segment contribution growing 56%, underpinned by excellent operating metrics across all measures. We also expanded our scale in the region, acquiring 33 new stores in Guatemala, furthering our leadership position there, and opened 9 de novo stores. Additionally, shortly after June 30, we acquired all of the remaining minority interests in SMG, which operates 108 stores across 12 countries. Our view on SMG has strengthened further as we see considerable opportunity in introducing EZCORP’s systems, operating disciplines, culture and capital across the platform. “We enter the final quarter of fiscal 2026 in a very strong operating and financial position. I am proud of what our team has accomplished so far this year and sincerely thank them for their tireless work in serving our customers with passion, dignity and respect. I look forward to continuing to build value for our shareholders in what has been an exceptionally strong year for our company.” CONSOLIDATED RESULTS Three Months Ended June 30, As Reported Adjusted1 in millions, except per share amounts 2026 2025 2026 2025 Total revenues $ 418.7 $ 311.0 $ 408.4 $ 311.0 Gross profit $ 246.2 $ 183.6 $ 240.3 $ 183.6 Income before income taxes $ 52.0 $ 34.7 $ 50.6 $ 33.3 Consolidated net income attributable to EZCORP $ 38.2 $ 26.5 $ 37.2 $ 24.5 Diluted earnings per share attributable to EZCORP $ 0.48 $ 0.34 $ 0.47 $ 0.32 EBITDA (non-GAAP measure) $ 67.2 $ 45.7 $ 65.6 $ 44.3 PLO increased 33% to $387.2 million (18% on a same-store2 basis), primarily due to higher average loan size and continued strong pawn demand. Total revenues increased 35% and gross profit increased 34%, reflecting improved pawn service charges (PSC), merchandise sales, and jewelry scrap sales. Excluding SMG, total revenues increased 21% and gross profit increased 22%. PSC increased 32% as a result of higher average PLO and additional stores. Merchandise sales gross margin increased to 38% from 36%, while aged general merchandise decreased 132 basis points (bps) to 1.3% of total general merchandise inventory. Jewelry scrap sales increased 110% due to the increase in gold price and jewelry purchases, and jewelry scrap sales gross margin decreased from 29% to 26%. Net inventory increased 40% (21% on a same-store basis) due to an increase in PLO, layaways and purchases. Inventory turnover down to 2.3x, from 2.4x. Store expenses increased 30% (12% on a same-store basis), primarily due to labor costs, including minimum wage increases in Latin America. General and administrative expenses increased 24%, primarily due to labor costs (including higher incentive compensation) and expenses associated with SMG.

On an adjusted basis, diluted earnings per share increased 47% to $0.47. Cash and cash equivalents decreased to $311.0 million from $472.1 million as of June 30, 2025.

SEGMENT RESULTS U.S. Pawn PLO increased 15% to $254.5 million (13% on a same-store basis) due to an increase in average loan size and continued strong loan demand.

Segment store count increased by 41 stores to 881 during the quarter due to 33 acquired stores and 9 de novo stores, partially offset by 1 store consolidation.

In July 2026, we acquired the remaining shares of SMG, making it wholly owned. As SMG was not owned during the comparable prior-year period, results are presented on an absolute basis without year-over-year comparisons. PLO of $33.8 million and net inventory of $28.9 million, with aged general merchandise at 1.1% of total general merchandise inventory.

OPERATING SEGMENT RESULTS (Unaudited) As a result of the acquisition of Founders One, LLC and its subsidiary Simple Management Group, Inc. effective January 2, 2026, the composition of our reportable segments changed beginning in the second quarter of fiscal 2026. SMG is now reported as a standalone reportable segment. Our equity interest in Cash Converters International Limited is now included within Corporate. Prior period segment information has been recast to reclassify Cash Converters equity income and interest income from notes receivable from Founders from the 'Other Investments' segment to Corporate. Because SMG was not a consolidated subsidiary in any prior period presented, no prior period SMG segment results exist.

We use constant currency results to evaluate our Latin America Pawn operations, which are denominated primarily in Mexican pesos, Guatemalan quetzales and other Latin American currencies. We believe that presentation of constant currency and adjusted results is meaningful and useful in understanding the activities and business metrics of our operations and reflects an additional way of viewing aspects of our business that, when viewed with GAAP results, provides a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our business. We provide non-GAAP financial information for informational purposes and to enhance understanding of our GAAP consolidated financial statements. We use this non-GAAP financial information primarily to evaluate and compare operating results across accounting periods. Readers should consider the information in addition to, but not instead of or superior to, our 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. Constant currency results reported herein are calculated by translating consolidated balance sheet and consolidated statement of operations items denominated in local currency to U.S. dollars using the exchange rate from the prior-year comparable period, as opposed to the current period, in order to exclude the effects of foreign currency rate fluctuations. In addition, we have an equity method investment that is denominated in Australian dollars and is translated into U.S. dollars. We used the end-of-period rate for balance sheet items and the average closing daily exchange rate on a monthly basis during the appropriate period for statement of operations items. The end-of-period and approximate average exchange rates for each applicable currency as compared to U.S. dollars as of and for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 were as follows: June 30, Three Months Ended June 30, Nine Months Ended June 30, 2026 2025 2026 2025 2026 2025 Mexican peso 17.5 18.8 17.4 19.5 17.8 20.0 Guatemalan quetzal 7.5 7.6 7.5 7.6 7.5 7.6 Honduran lempira 26.4 25.8 26.4 25.7 26.3 25.2 Australian dollar 1.5 1.5 1.4 1.6 1.5 1.6 Our statement of operations constant currency results reflect the monthly exchange rate fluctuations and so are not directly calculable from the above rates. Constant currency results, where presented, also exclude the foreign currency gain or loss.
