Built from parent and subsidiary links from GLEIF, the Global Legal Entity Identifier Foundation (CC0); subsidiaries listed in Exhibit 21 of annual reports filed with the SEC; subsidiaries, stakes and holdings from Wikidata (CC0); major holders from Schedules 13D and 13G. Each entity in the chart links to its source.
What it owns
What EZCorp reports owning in its annual reports to the SEC: buildings, land and equipment, real estate and locations, investments, intangible assets and inventory, at the end of its latest fiscal year and a year before.
We lease our pawn store locations, which are located throughout our geographic areas of operations. See “Part I, Item 1 — Business — Segment and Geographic Information.” Our pawn stores are typically located in a freestanding building or occupy all or part of a retail strip center with contiguous parking. A portion of the store interior is designed for retail operations, with merchandise displayed for sale by category. Distinctive exterior design and attractive in-store signage provide an appealing atmosphere to customers. We maintain or reimburse our landlords for maintaining property and general liability insurance for each of our stores. Our stores are open six or seven days a week.
Leases for our U.S. locations generally have initial terms ranging from five to ten years and typically allow for renewals in increments of three-to-five years. Our primary corporate office is located in Austin, Texas and is leased through October 2035 with annual escalating rent payments. Our locations in Latin America are generally leased on three to five year terms.
The rest of Item 2
Our existing leases expire on various dates through fiscal 2039, with a small number of leases on month-to-month terms. All leases provide for specified periodic rental payments at market rates. Most leases require us to maintain the property and pay the cost of insurance and taxes. We believe the termination of any one of our leases would not have a material adverse effect on our operations. Our strategy generally is to lease rather than own space for our stores. On an ongoing basis, we may close or consolidate under-performing store locations.
As of September 30, 2025, we had a total of 1,360 stores, 545 of which are located in the U.S., with 45% located in Texas, 17% in Florida and the remainder spread across 17 other states. We also have 622 locations in Mexico, 148 in Guatemala, 20 in El Salvador and 25 in Honduras.
In addition to our store leases, we lease approximately 85,000 square feet of corporate office space in Austin, Texas, of which 73,876 square feet is being subleased or made available for sublease to other tenants. We lease other corporate office space in Mexico (8,600 square feet), Guatemala (3,500 square feet), El Salvador (4,500 square feet) and Honduras (1,200 square feet).
For additional information about store locations, see “Part I, Item 1 — Business — Segment and Geographic Information.
The company was founded in 1989. In 1994, the company had grown to operate 234 pawn shops in nine states. The company expanded its business to offer payday loan services in its EZPAWN locations in 2001. The first stand-alone payday loan stores were opened and branded EZMONEY in 2003. EZCORP then entered into international markets. EZPAWN opened 4 new stores along the Texas/Mexico border and acquired 20 stores in the interior of Mexico, which were branded Empeño Fácil in 2007. In late 2008 EZCORP purchased the Las Vegas based loan providers, Pawn Plus and ASAP Pawn. In 2009, EZCORP expanded to Canada, operating under the name CashMax.
The company also acquired 30% interest in Cash Converters International in November 2009. The company reports it acquired Value Financial Services in January 2009. In 2010, EZCORP increased interest in Cash Converters International to 33%. The company was also listed on Fortune Magazine's 100 Fastest Growing Companies for 2010. EZCORP acquired the Cash Converters master franchise rights in Canada in 2011. In 2012, EZCORP acquired a controlling interest in Grupo Finmart, a specialty consumer finance company headquartered in Mexico City and operating under the name "Crediamigo"; and TUYO, a company headquartered in Mexico City that owns and operates buy/sell stores in Mexico City and the surrounding metropolitan area.
In 2015, EZCORP acquired USA Pawn & Jewelry, which operated in Arizona and Oregon.
As per the company's website, effective July 29, 2015, EZCORP, Inc. announced the closure of its U.S. Financial Services business which offered payday loans, auto title loans, installment loans and lines of credit. All stores are now closed.

Risk factors and legal proceedings
The risks EZCorp names in Item 1A of its 10-K filed Nov 13, 2025: 29 risks under these headings, as written.19
Company Specific Risks
Changes in, or failure to comply with, laws and regulations affecting our products and services could have a material adverse effect on our operations and financial performance.
Negative characterizations of the pawn industry by consumer advocates, media or others could result in increased legislative or regulatory activity, could adversely affect the market value of our publicly traded stock, or could make it harder to operate our business successfully.
A significant portion of our U.S. business is concentrated in Texas and Florida.
A significant or sudden decrease in gold values or the volume of gold transactions may have a material impact on our earnings and financial position.
Fluctuations in our sales, PLO, sales margins and pawn redemption rates could have a material adverse impact on our operating results.
Achievement of our growth objectives is dependent upon our ability to open and acquire new stores.
We continue to have limited indemnity obligations to AlphaCredit for pre-closing taxes.
One person beneficially owns all of our voting stock and generally controls the outcome of all matters requiring a vote of stockholders, which may influence the value of our publicly traded non-voting stock.
We are in the firearms business in the U.S., which exposes us to increased risks of regulatory fines and penalties, lawsuits and related liabilities.
Changes in competition from various sources could have a material adverse impact on our ability to achieve our plans.
Our continued profitability and growth plans are dependent on our ability to successfully design or acquire, deploy and maintain information technology and other business systems to support our current business and our planned growth and expansion.
The other 18 risks
We invested in Cash Converters International Limited for strategic reasons. Law or regulatory changes in Australia or other jurisdictions in which Cash Converters operates, or other factors, could adversely affect Cash Converters’ operating performance, our share of which would be reflected in our own financial statements due to the equity method of accounting. Further, if that operating performance, or other factors, adversely impact the value of Cash Converters’ publicly traded stock, then we may be required to impair our investment, as we have done in the past.
Our ability to recover our investments in other companies (such as our indirect investment in Simple Management Group, Inc. and our investment in Rich Data Corporation) is heavily dependent on the success and performance of those companies, including their respective ability to obtain further debt or equity financing.
We may incur property, casualty or other losses, including losses related to natural disasters such as hurricanes, earthquakes and volcanoes. Not all such losses will be covered by insurance.
Goodwill comprises a significant portion of our total assets. We assess goodwill for impairment at least annually, which could result in a material, non-cash write-down and could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial conditions.
The conversion feature of our convertible notes, if triggered, may adversely affect our financial condition and operating results.
Conversion of our convertible notes into stock may dilute the ownership interests of existing stockholders or may otherwise depress the price of our Class A Common Stock.
We have a limited number of unreserved shares available for future issuance, which may limit our ability to conduct future financings and other transactions and our ability to offer equity awards to management.
Our incurrence of debt in the form of the 2032 Senior Notes could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations
General Risks
Public health issues could adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.
We have significant operations in Latin America, and changes in the business, regulatory, political or social climate could impact our operations there, which could adversely affect our results of operations and growth plans.
A significant change in foreign currency exchange rates could have a material adverse impact on our earnings and financial position.
Litigation and regulatory proceedings could have a material adverse impact on our business.
Our acquisitions, investments and other transactions could disrupt our ongoing business and harm our results of operations.
We may be exposed to liabilities under applicable anti-bribery, anti-corruption, anti-money laundering and other general business laws and regulations, and any determination that we violated these laws or regulations could have a material adverse effect on our business.
Changes in our liquidity and capital requirements or in access to capital markets or other financing and transactional banking sources could limit our ability to achieve our plans.
We collect and store a variety of sensitive customer information, and breaches in data security or other cyber-attacks could harm our business operations and lead to reputational damage.
We may face business interruptions or other adverse effects on our operations and growth.
We face other risks discussed under “Part II, Item 7A — Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.”
