Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared according to the instructions to Form 10-Q and Section 210.8-03(b) of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and, therefore, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) have been omitted.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the six-monthnine-month period ended JuneSeptember 30, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2014. For further information, refer to the Consolidated Financial Statements and footnotes thereto included in our Form 10-K as of and for the year ended December 31, 2013. The condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2013, has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date, but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP.

Nature of Business

Western Capital Resources, Inc. (WCR)(“WCR”), through its wholly owned operating subsidiaries, Wyoming Financial Lenders, Inc. (WFL)(“WFL”), Express Pawn, Inc. (EP)(“EP”), and PQH Wireless, Inc. (PQH)(“PQH”), collectively referred to as the “Company,” provides retail financial services to individuals and operates retail cellular and retail pawn stores primarily in the Midwestern and Southwestern United States.  The Company operated 48 “Payday” stores, two combined payday/pawn store, and one pawn store in nine states (Colorado, Iowa, Kansas, Nebraska, North Dakota, South Dakota, Utah, Wisconsin and Wyoming) as of JuneSeptember 30, 2014. The Company operated 58 cellular retail stores in 14 states (Arizona, Colorado, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Missouri, Nebraska, Ohio, Oklahoma, Oregon, Texas and Washington) as of JuneSeptember 30, 2014.  The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of WCR, WFL, PQH and EP. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Through our “Consumer Finance” division, we provide non-recourse cash advance and installment loans, collateralized non-recourse pawn loans, check cashing and other money services, and operate retail pawn stores.  The short-term uncollateralized non-recourse consumer loans, known as “cash advance” or “payday” loans, are in amounts that typically range from $100 to $500. Cash advance loans provide customers with cash in exchange for a promissory note with a maturity of generally two to four weeks and the customer’s post-dated personal check for the aggregate amount of the cash advanced plus a fee. The fee varies from state to state, based on applicable regulations, and generally ranges from $15 to $22 per each $100 borrowed. To repay a cash advance loan, a customer may pay with cash, in which case their personal check is returned to them, or allow the check to be presented to the bank for collection. Installment loans provide customers with cash in exchange for a promissory note with a maturity of generally three to six months and are unsecured. The fee and interest rate on installment loans vary based on applicable regulations.

Our pawn stores provide collateralized non-recourse loans, commonly known as “pawn loans,” with maturities of one to four months, depending on applicable state regulations.Allowable service charges vary by state. Our pawn loans earn 17.5% to 20% per month. The loan amount varies depending on the valuation of each item pawned. We generally lend from 30% to 55% of the collateral’s estimated resale value depending on our evaluation of several factors.Customers then have the option to redeem the pawned merchandise during the term or at expiration of the pawn loan or else forfeit the merchandise to us upon expiration. At our pawn stores, we sell merchandise acquired through either customer forfeiture of pawn collateral or second-hand merchandise purchased from customers or consigned to us.

We also provide title loans and other ancillary consumer financial products and services that are complementary to our cash advance-lending business, such as check-cashing services, money transfers and money orders.  In our check-cashing business, we primarily cash payroll checks, but we also cash government assistance, tax refund and insurance checks or drafts. Our fees for cashing payroll checks average approximately 2.5% of the face amount of the check, subject to local market conditions, and this fee is deducted from the cash given to the customer for the check. We display our check-cashing fees in full view of our customers on a menu board in each store and provide a detailed receipt for each transaction. Although we have established guidelines for approving check-cashing transactions, we have no preset limit on the size of the checks we will cash.

Our loans and other related services are subject to state regulations (which vary from state to state), federal regulations and local regulations, where applicable.

We also operate a “Cellular Retail” division that is an authorized Cricket premier dealer, selling cellular phones and accessories, providing ancillary services and accepting service payments from customers.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that may affect certain reported amounts and disclosures in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Significant management estimates relate to the loans receivable allowance, percentage of existing pawn loans that will be forfeited, allocation of and carrying value of goodwill and intangible assets, inventory valuation and obsolescence and deferred taxes and tax uncertainties.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes fees on cash advance loans on a constant-yield basis ratably over the loans’ terms. Title and installment loan fees and interest are recognized using the interest method, except that installment loan origination fees are recognized as they become non-refundable, and installment loan maintenance fees are recognized when earned. The Company recognizes fees on redeemed pawn loans on a constant-yield basis ratably over the loans’ terms. No fees are recognized on forfeited pawn loans. The Company records revenue from check cashing fees, sales of phones, accessories, and pawn inventory, and fees from all other services in the period in which the sale or service is completed.

Loans Receivable Allowance

The Company maintains a loan loss allowance for anticipated losses for our payday and installment loans.We do not record loan losses or charge-offs of pawn or title loans because the value of the collateral exceeds the loan amount.To estimate the appropriate level of the loan loss allowance, we consider the amount of outstanding loan principal, interest and fees, historical charge offs, current and expected collection patterns and current economic trends. Our current loan loss allowance is based on our historical net write off percentage, net charge offs to loan principal, interest and fee amounts that originated during the last 24 months, applied against the balance of loan principal, interest and fees outstanding. The Company also periodically performs a look-back analysis on its loan loss allowance to verify the historical allowance established tracks with the actual subsequent loan write-offs and recoveries. The Company is aware that as conditions change, it may also need to make additional allowances in future periods.

Included in loans receivable are unpaid principal, interest and fee balances of payday, installment, pawn and title loans that have not reached their maturity date, and “late” payday loans that have reached maturity within the last 180 days and have remaining outstanding balances.  Late payday loans generally are unpaid loans where a customer’s personal check has been deposited and the check has been returned due to non-sufficient funds in the customer’s account, a closed account, or other reasons.   Loans are carried at cost plus accrued interest or fees less payments made and the loans receivable allowance.  The Company does not specifically reserve for any individual loan.  The Company aggregates loan types for purposes of estimating the loss allowance using a methodology that analyzes historical portfolio statistics and management’s judgment regarding recent trends noted in the portfolio.  This methodology takes into account several factors, including the maturity of the store location and charge-off and recovery rates.  The Company utilizes a software program to assist with the tracking of its historical portfolio statistics.   All returned items are charged-off after 180 days, as collections after that date have not been significant.  The loans receivable allowance is reviewed monthly and any adjustment to the loan loss allowance as a result of historical loan performance, current and expected collection patterns and current economic trends is recorded.

Combination (Reverse Split) of Common Stock

On May 30, 2014, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a 1-to-20 reverse stock split. The reverse stock split became effective on June 20, 2014. The reverse stock split reduced the number of issued and outstanding shares of common stock to 3,010,8873,010,765 shares. The reverse stock split similarly reduced by a factor of 20 the authorized number of shares of capital stock that the Company may issue to 12,500,000. The accompanying financial statements and footnotes have been adjusted retroactively to reflect the reverse stock split.

Net Income Per Common Share

Basic net income per common share is computed by dividing the income available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the year.period. There were no dilutive securities at JuneSeptember 30, 2014 and 2013.

Segment Reporting

The Company has grouped its operations into two segments – Consumer Finance division and Cellular Retail division. The Consumer Finance division provides financial and ancillary services and also sells used merchandise at retail pawn stores. The Cellular Retail division is an authorized Cricket premier dealer selling cellular phones and accessories, providing ancillary services and accepting service payments from customers.

Reclassifications

Certain Statement of Income reclassifications have been made in the presentation of our prior financial statements and accompanying notes to conform to the presentation as of and for the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2014.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) and the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) (collectively, the Boards) jointly issued a comprehensive new revenue recognition standard that will supersede nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance under US GAAP and IFRS. This converged standard is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company is currently assessing the potential effects on our financial condition and results of operations.

No new accounting pronouncement issued or effective during the fiscal quarter has had or is expected to have a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements.

The Company’s Consumer Finance division activities are highly regulated under numerous local, state, and federal laws and regulations, which are subject to change. New laws or regulations could be enacted that could have a negative impact on the Company’s lending activities. Over the past several years, consumer advocacy groups and certain media reports have advocated governmental and regulatory action to prohibit or severely restrict the Company’s lending activities.

Any adverse change in present federal laws or regulations that govern or otherwise affect lending could result in our curtailment or cessation of operations in certain jurisdictions or locations. Furthermore, any failure to comply with any applicable federal laws or regulations could result in fines, litigation, closure of one or more store locations or negative publicity. Any such change or failure would have a corresponding impact on our results of operations and financial condition, primarily through a decrease in revenues resulting from the cessation or curtailment of operations, decrease in our operating income through increased legal expenditures or fines, and could also negatively affect our general business prospects as well if we are unable to effectively replace such revenues in a timely and efficient manner or if negative publicity effects our ability to obtain additional financing as needed.

In addition, the passage of federal or state laws and regulations could, at any point, essentially prohibit the Company from conducting its lending business in its current form. Any such legal or regulatory change would certainly have a material and adverse effect on the Company, its operating results, financial condition and prospects, and perhaps even its viability.

For the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2014 and 2013, the Company had significant revenues by state (shown as a percentage of the applicable division’s revenue when over 10%) as follows:

* Less than 10%

Recent Developments

AlphaGraphics Merger Transaction

After close of business on September 30, 2014, we acquired the business of AlphaGraphics, Inc., a Delaware corporation, by completing a merger transaction. The Agreement and Plan of Merger governing the transaction (the “Merger Agreement”) was entered into on August 29, 2014, by and among us, WCRS Acquisition Co., LLC, our wholly owned acquisition subsidiary, and BC Alpha Holdings II, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and the parent entity of AlphaGraphics (collectively “AlphaGraphics”).

As contemplated under the Merger Agreement, all of the outstanding membership interests in BC Alpha Holdings II were exchanged for our issuance of 2,986,823 shares of common stock representing approximately 49.8% of our total issued and outstanding common stock after the merger.

General Overview

Revenues and expenses for our Consumer Finance division, Cellular Retail division and Combined Consumer Finance and Cellular Retail divisions for the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2014 and 2013 were as follows:

Consumer finance operations are conducted under our wholly owned subsidiaries, Wyoming Financial Lenders, Inc. and Express Pawn, Inc., primarily in the Midwestern and Southwestern United States. Services provided include short-term loans (non-recourse “cash advance” or “payday” loans, small unsecured installment loans, collateralized non-recourse pawn loans and title loans), check cashing and other money services. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2014, we operated 48 “payday” stores, two payday/pawn stores, and one pawn store in nine states (Colorado, Iowa, Kansas, Nebraska, North Dakota, South Dakota, Utah, Wisconsin and Wyoming).

In our consumer finance operations, we provide short-term unsecured consumer cash advance loans in amounts that typically range from $100 to $500. Cash advance loans provide customers with cash in exchange for a promissory note with a maturity of generally two to four weeks and the customer’s post-dated personal check for the aggregate amount of the cash advance, plus a fee. The fee varies from state to state based on applicable regulations, and generally ranges from $15 to $22 for each whole or partial increment of $100 borrowed. To repay the cash advance loan, a customer may pay with cash, in which case their personal check is returned to them, or allow the check to be presented to the bank for collection.

We also provide unsecured installment loans in exchange for a promissory note with a maturity of generally three to six months. The fee and interest rate on installment loans vary based on applicable regulations.

We also provide collateralized non-recourse loans, commonly known as “pawn loans,” with a maturity of one to four months. Allowable pawn loan service charges will vary by state and range from 17.5% to 20% per month. The loan amount varies depending on the valuation of each item pawned. We generally lend from 30% to 55% of the collateral’s estimated resale. Customers have the option to redeem the pawned merchandise during the term or at expiration of the pawn loan or forfeit the merchandise to us on expiration. At our pawn stores we sell merchandise acquired through customer forfeiture of pawn collateral or second-hand merchandise purchased from customers or consigned to us.

Also asAs part of our consumer finance operations, we provide title loans and other ancillary consumer financial products and services that are complementary to its cash advance-lending business, such as check-cashing services, money transfers and money orders.  In our check cashing business, we primarily cash payroll checks, but we also cash government assistance, tax refund and insurance checks or drafts.

All of our loan and other services are subject to state regulations (which vary from state to state), federal regulations and local regulation, where applicable.

Our cellular retail operations are conducted by our wholly owned subsidiary, PQH Wireless, Inc. We are an authorized Cricket premierWireless (“Cricket”) dealer, and operate Cricket retail stores selling cellular phones and accessories, providing ancillary services and accepting Cricket service payments from customers.Cricket brand service offerings provide customers with unlimited nationwide wireless services for a flat rate without requiring a fixed-term contract or a credit check. As an authorized premier Cricket dealer, we are only permitted to sell Cricket’s services at our Cricket retail stores. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2014, we operated 58 Cricket wireless retail stores in 14 states (Arizona, Colorado, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Missouri, Nebraska, Ohio, Oklahoma, Oregon, Texas and Washington).

Our expenses primarily relate to the operations of our various stores.  The most significant expenses include phones and accessories, salaries and benefits for our store employees, occupancy expenses for our leased real estate and provisions for payday loan losses.  Our other significant expenses are general and administrative, which includes compensation of employees, professional fees for compliance, external reporting, audit and legal services, and management/consulting fees.

With respect to our cost structure, phone and accessory cost of sales and salaries and benefits are two of our largest costs and are driven primarily by the size and number of storefronts operated throughout the period and seasonal fluctuation in sales volumes.   Occupancy costs make up our third largest expense item.  Our provision for losses is also a significant expense.  We have experienced seasonality in our Cricket operations, with the first and fourth quarters typically being our strongest periods as a result of broader economic factors such as holiday spending habits at the end of each year and income tax refunds during the first quarter.

We evaluate our stores based on net store profits, revenue growth, gross profit contributions and, for payday stores, loss ratio (which is losses as a percentage of payday loan fees), with consideration given to the length of time the store has been open and its geographic location.  We evaluate store financial and other measures on a routine basis to evaluate its past contributions and to assess its future contributions to profitability. We actively monitor and evaluate legislative and regulatory initiatives in each of the states and nationally.  To the extent that states enact legislation or regulations that negatively impacts payday lending, whether through preclusion, fee reduction or loan caps, our business could be adversely affected.

To further diversify, our strategic expansion plans involve the expansion and diversification of our existing product and service offerings and our expansion into new lines of business through acquisitions.   We also anticipate Cricket and pawn retail store expansion.   We believe that successful expansion, both geographically and product- and service-wise, may help to mitigate the regulatory and economic risk inherent in our business by making us less reliant on (i) cash advance and installment lending alone and (ii) any particular aspect of our business that is concentrated geographically or by product offering.

Discussion of Critical Accounting Policies

Our condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applied on a consistent basis.  The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make a number of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.  We evaluate these estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis.  We base these estimates on the information currently available to us and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances.  Actual results could vary materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Our significant accounting policies are discussed in Note 1, “Basis of Presentation, Nature of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” of the notes to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report.  We believe that the following critical accounting policies affect the more significant estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Loans Receivable Allowance

We maintain a loan loss allowance for anticipated losses for our payday and installment loans.We do not record loan losses or charge-offs of pawn or title loans because the value of the collateral exceeds the loan amount.To estimate the appropriate level of the loan loss allowance, we consider the amount of outstanding loan principal, interest and fees, historical charge offs, current and expected collection patterns and current economic trends. Our current loan loss allowance is based on our historical net write off percentage, net charge offs to loan principal, interest and fee amounts that originated during the last 24 months, applied against the balance of loan principal, interest and fees outstanding. We also periodically performsperform a look-back analysis on its loan loss allowance to verify the historical allowance established tracks with the actual subsequent loan write-offs and recoveries. We are aware that, as conditions change, we may also need to make additional allowances in future periods.
