INVESTOR PRESENTATION NOVEMBER 2017 EXHIBIT 99.1


 
FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS 2 “This release contains forward-looking statements about the business, financial condition and prospects of FirstCash, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries (together, the “Company”). Forward-looking statements, as that term is defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “believes,” “projects,” “expects,” “may,” “estimates,” “should,” “plans,” “targets,” “intends,” “could,” “would,” “anticipates,” “potential,” “confident,” “optimistic,” or the negative thereof, or other variations thereon, or comparable terminology, or by discussions of strategy, objectives, estimates, guidance, expectations and future plans. Forward-looking statements can also be identified by the fact these statements do not relate strictly to historical or current matters. Rather, forward-looking statements relate to anticipated or expected events, activities, trends or results. Because forward-looking statements relate to matters that have not yet occurred, these statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties. These forward-looking statements are made to provide the public with management’s current assessment of the Company’s business. Although the Company believes the expectations reflected in forward-looking statements are reasonable, there can be no assurances such expectations will prove to be accurate. Security holders are cautioned such forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties. Certain factors may cause results to differ materially from those anticipated by the forward-looking statements made in this release. Such factors may include, without limitation, the risks, uncertainties and regulatory developments discussed and described in (i) the Company’s 2016 annual report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 1, 2017, including the risks described in Part 1, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” thereof, (ii) the Company’s quarterly report on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC on November 1, 2017, including the risks described in Part II, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” thereof, and (iii) the other reports filed with the SEC. Many of these risks and uncertainties are beyond the ability of the Company to control, nor can the Company predict, in many cases, all of the risks and uncertainties that could cause its actual results to differ materially from those indicated by the forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements contained in this release speak only as of the date of this release, and the Company expressly disclaims any obligation or undertaking to report any updates or revisions to any such statement to reflect any change in the Company’s expectations or any change in events, conditions or circumstances on which any such statement is based, except as required by law”

STABLE REGULATORY CLIMATE FOR PAWN 30 • Pawn loans are different from traditional consumer loan products and not subject to the CFPB Small Dollar Loan rules because they: – Are non-recourse loans – Have significantly smaller average loan sizes – Do not involve credit checks, collection activities, ACH transactions or negative credit reporting • Regulations are primarily at the state level in the U.S. and the federal level in Latin America • No significant negative regulatory changes in the last 25 years • States with a positive rate change include: – Ohio (119 Stores): Enacted March 28, 2017 – Washington (33 Stores): Enacted July 24, 2015 – Arizona (35 Stores): Enacted July 24, 2015 – Nevada (27 Stores): Enacted October 1, 2011


 
LIMITED EXPOSURE TO NEW CFPB RULES FOR PAYDAY LENDING 31 Target Revenue Mix (next 3-5 years) 95% 5% 98% 2% Consumer Lending Pawn Operations Q3-2017 TTM Revenue Mix is Primarily Pawn Related • On October 5, 2017, the CFPB released its small-dollar loan rule (the “SDL Rule”), which is scheduled to take effect in July 2019. If the SDL Rule takes effect, it will impact short-term small dollar loan products such as payday loans, auto title loans and certain installment loans. Importantly, the SDL Rule does not apply to non-recourse pawn loans. – The proposed rules include, among other things: – Additional underwriting requirements – Cooling-off periods between certain loans – Limitations to prevent the sustained use of certain loans such as capping the number of rollovers – Restrictions on collection practices • Traditional pawn loans are excluded from the scope of the new CFPB rules

FIRSTCASH 2017 GUIDANCE* 36 • Fiscal full-year 2017 guidance for adjusted earnings per share, a non-GAAP measure that excludes merger related expenses and the loss on extinguishment of debt, to be in the range of $2.60 to $2.70 – 2017 adjusted net income, a non-GAAP measure, is projected to be in the range of approximately $124 million to $129 million versus 2016 adjusted net income of $85 million. – The 2017 earnings guidance range implies adjusted EBITDA, also a non- GAAP measure, to be in the range of approximately $268 million to $275 million for fiscal 2017. This compares to adjusted EBITDA of $180 million in fiscal 2016 and $132 million in fiscal 2015. * The guidance, announced on 10/26/2017, for fiscal 2017 is presented on a non-GAAP basis, as it does not include the impact of merger and other acquisition expenses or the loss on extinguishment of debt. Given the difficulty in predicting the amount and timing of future merger and other acquisition expenses, the Company cannot reasonably provide a full reconciliation of adjusted guidance to GAAP guidance.

APPENDIX


 
NON-GAAP FINANCIAL INFORMATION 43 The Company uses certain financial calculations, such as adjusted net income, adjusted net income per share, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, free cash flow, adjusted free cash flow and constant currency results (collectively "Non-GAAP Measures"), which are not considered measures of financial performance under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). Items excluded from the calculation of Non-GAAP Measures are significant components in understanding and assessing the Company’s financial performance. Since Non-GAAP Measures are not measures determined in accordance with GAAP and are thus susceptible to varying calculations, Non-GAAP Measures, as presented, may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. Non-GAAP Measures should not be considered as alternatives to net income, cash flow provided by or used in operating, investing or financing activities or other financial statement data presented in the Company’s consolidated financial statements as indicators of financial performance or liquidity. Non-GAAP Measures should be evaluated in conjunction with, and are not a substitute for, GAAP financial measures.

FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS 2 “This release contains forward-looking statements about the business, financial condition and prospects of FirstCash, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries (together, the “Company”). Forward-looking statements, as that term is defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “believes,” “projects,” “expects,” “may,” “estimates,” “should,” “plans,” “targets,” “intends,” “could,” “would,” “anticipates,” “potential,” “confident,” “optimistic,” or the negative thereof, or other variations thereon, or comparable terminology, or by discussions of strategy, objectives, estimates, guidance, expectations and future plans. Forward-looking statements can also be identified by the fact these statements do not relate strictly to historical or current matters. Rather, forward-looking statements relate to anticipated or expected events, activities, trends or results. Because forward-looking statements relate to matters that have not yet occurred, these statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties. These forward-looking statements are made to provide the public with management’s current assessment of the Company’s business. Although the Company believes the expectations reflected in forward-looking statements are reasonable, there can be no assurances such expectations will prove to be accurate. Security holders are cautioned such forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties. Certain factors may cause results to differ materially from those anticipated by the forward-looking statements made in this release. Such factors may include, without limitation, the risks, uncertainties and regulatory developments discussed and described in (i) the Company’s 2016 annual report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 1, 2017, including the risks described in Part 1, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” thereof, (ii) the Company’s quarterly report on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC on November 1, 2017, including the risks described in Part II, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” thereof, and (iii) the other reports filed with the SEC. Many of these risks and uncertainties are beyond the ability of the Company to control, nor can the Company predict, in many cases, all of the risks and uncertainties that could cause its actual results to differ materially from those indicated by the forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements contained in this release speak only as of the date of this release, and the Company expressly disclaims any obligation or undertaking to report any updates or revisions to any such statement to reflect any change in the Company’s expectations or any change in events, conditions or circumstances on which any such statement is based, except as required by law”
