Item 2.02 — Results of Operations and Financial Condition
On May 3, 2017, EZCORP, Inc. issued a press release announcing its results of operations and financial condition for the quarter ended March 31, 2017. A copy of that press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1.
In addition to the financial information prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("GAAP"), we provide certain other non-GAAP financial information such as constant currency results ("constant currency"). Management believes that presentation of non-GAAP financial information is meaningful and useful in understanding the activities and business metrics of our Mexico Pawn operations, which are denominated in Mexican pesos. Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures reflect an additional way of viewing aspects of our business that, when viewed with our GAAP results, provides a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our business. Management provides non-GAAP financial information for informational purposes and to enhance understanding of our GAAP
consolidated financial statements. We use this non-GAAP financial information to evaluate and compare operating results across accounting periods. 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.
The information set forth under this Item 2.02, including Exhibit 99.1, shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, and shall not be deemed to be incorporated by reference in any filing made by EZCORP under the Securities Act of 1933 or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
Item 7.01 — Regulation FD Disclosure
A copy of the presentation materials that management will review during the Company’s second quarter 2017 earnings conference call (to be held on May 4, 2017) has been posted in the Investor Relations section of the Company’s website at www.ezcorp.com.
