NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND NATURE OF OPERATIONS

Nature of Operations and Basis of Presentation

The terms “CURO" and the “Company” refer to CURO Group Holdings Corp. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries as a consolidated entity, except where otherwise stated.

CURO is a growth-oriented, technology-enabled, highly-diversified consumer finance company serving a wide range of underbanked consumers in the U.S., Canada and, through February 25, 2019, the U.K.

The Company has prepared the accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with US GAAP, and with the accounting policies described in its 2019 Form ~~10-K filed with the SEC on March 9, 2020.~~10-K. Interim results of operations are not necessarily indicative of ~~the~~ results that might be expected for future interim periods or for the year ending December 31, 2020.

Certain information and note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with US GAAP have been condensed or omitted, although the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to enable a reasonable understanding of the information presented. Additionally, the Company qualifies as an SRC as defined by the SEC, which allows registrants to report information under scaled disclosure requirements. SRC status is determined on an annual basis as of the last business day of the most recently completed second fiscal quarter. Under these rules, the Company met the definition of an SRC as of June 30, ~~2019,~~2020, and it will reevaluate its status as of June 30, ~~2020.~~2021.

The unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the accompanying notes reflect all adjustments (consisting only of adjustments of a normal and recurring nature) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present fairly the Company's results of operations, financial position and cash flows for the periods presented.

COVID-19

A novel strain of coronavirus, COVID-19, surfaced in late 2019 and has subsequently spread worldwide, including to the U.S. and Canada. On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization categorized COVID-19 as a pandemic, and the President of the United States declared the COVID-19 outbreak a national emergency. Macroeconomic conditions, in general, and the Company's operations have been significantly affected by the COVID-19 pandemic and there are no reliable estimates of how long the pandemic will last or the scope or magnitude of its near-term or long-term impact. Resurgences of the pandemic in various states in which the Company operates also adds uncertainty as jurisdictions establish protocols to lessen the burden of these cases, as described further below. Refer to Note 3 , "Loans Receivable and Reve nue" for an explanation of the effect of the pandemic on the Company's loans receivable and the allowance for loan losses as of June 30, 2020.

In response to the pandemic, various governmental bodies have issued decrees prohibiting certain businesses from continuing to operate and certain classes of workers from reporting to work. However, CURO's operations have been designated as essential financial services by federal guidelines and local regulations. As a provider of an essential service, the Company remains focused on protecting the health and ~~wellbeing~~well being of its employees, customers and the communities in which it operates while assuring the continuity of its business operations. While CURO continues serving its customers through both store and online channels, store hours are reduced, enhanced cleaning protocols for all facilities are in place, and social distancing guidelines are in effect to aid in combating the spread of the pandemic.

On March 27, 2020, the U.S. government enacted the CARES Act, which includes modifications to the limitation on business interest expense and net operating loss provisions, and provides a payment delay of employer payroll taxes ~~during 2020 after~~incurred subsequent to the date of enactment. The Company expects to delay payment of employer payroll taxes otherwise due in 2020 with 50% due by December 31, 2021 and the remaining 50% by December 31, 2022.

The CARES Act also included two provisions that directly impacted the demand for the Company's products as well as its customers’ ability to make payments on their existing loans. The CARES Act included one-time Economic Impact Payments to American households of up to $1,200 per adult for individuals whose income was less than $99,000 (or $198,000 for tax joint filers) and $500 per child under 17 years old, up to $3,400 for a family of four if certain eligibility criteria were met. The CARES Act also provided Unemployment benefit expansion, including (i) an additional $600 federal stimulus payment automatically added to each week of state benefits received between March 29 and July 25, 2020; (ii) expanded Pandemic Unemployment Assistance coverage to self-employed workers, independent contractors, people with limited employment history and people who have used all of their regular unemployment insurance benefits; and (iii) Pandemic Emergency Unemployment Compensation, which extends unemployment insurance benefits from 26 weeks to 39 weeks within a 12-month benefit year.

CURO GROUP HOLDINGS CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

On March 18, 2020, the Canadian government announced a set of pandemic measures as part of the Government of Canada’s COVID-19 Economic Response Plan. This plan included several provisions that directly impacted the demand for the Company's products as well as its customers’ ability to make payments on their existing loans, including (i) the Canada Emergency Response Benefit which provides a $2,000 benefit every four weeks for 24 weeks to eligible workers who become unemployed or under-employed as a result of COVID-19; (ii) a $300 per child Canada Child Benefit paid on May 20, 2020; (iii) a one-time special payment through Canada’s Goods and Services Tax credit for low and modest-income families that averages $400 for individuals and $600 for couples; and iv) temporary wage increases for low-income essential workers funded at the federal level but disbursed at the provincial level.

Refer to Note 7, "Income Taxes" for the CARES Act impact to the Company's provision for income taxes.

In light of COVID-19, the Company also considered implications of the pandemic on its estimates and assumptions as of March 31, 2020. After review of the information available regarding conditions as of March 31, 2020, the Company increased its allowance for loan losses, as disclosed in ~~Note 3, "Loans and Receivable and Revenue."~~ The increase in volatility of foreign currency exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and Canadian dollar, as a result of COVID-19 and other factors such as oil price volatility, had a material impact on the Company's Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. Gross loans receivable in Canada decreased $26.5 million, or 8.7%, as a result of fluctuations in the foreign currency exchange rate from December 31, 2019 to March 31, 2020 between the U.S dollar and Canadian dollar.

The effect of the COVID-19 pandemic will not be fully reflected in the Company's results of operations and overall financial performance until future periods. The extent of the impact of COVID-19 on the Company's business is highly uncertain and difficult to predict, as information is rapidly evolving with respect to the duration and severity of the pandemic.

~~NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)~~

Principles of Consolidation

The unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of CURO and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. Intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Ad Astra Acquisition

On January 3, 2020, the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding stock of Ad Astra, a related party, for total consideration of $14.4 million, net of cash received. Prior to the acquisition, Ad Astra was the Company's exclusive provider of third-party collection services for owned and managed loans in the U.S. that are in later-stage delinquency. Ad Astra, now a wholly-owned subsidiary, is included in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Prior to the acquisition, all costs related to Ad Astra were included in "Other costs of providing services." Following the acquisition, operating costs for Ad Astra are included within "Corporate, district and other expenses," consistent with presentation of other internal collection costs. See Note 17, "Acquisition" for further information.

U.K. Segment Placed into Administration

On February 25, 2019, the Company placed its U.K. segment into administration, which resulted in the treatment of the U.K. segment as discontinued operations for all periods presented. Throughout this Form 10-Q, current and prior period financial information is presented on a continuing operations basis, excluding the results and positions of the U.K. segment. See Note 15, "Discontinued Operations" for additional information.

Equity Investment in Unconsolidated Entity

The Company holds an equity investment in Katapult, a private lease-to-own platform for online, brick and mortar and omni-channel retailers. Katapult provides the retailers' customers with payment options in store or via the Katapult link on a retailer's website. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, the Company owned 42.5% of Katapult. The Company records the equity method investment in "Other assets" on the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. See Note 8, "Fair Value Measurements" for additional detail on Katapult's fair value considerations.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions, such as those ~~posed~~impacted by COVID-19, that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. Estimates also affect the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the periods presented. Some of the significant estimates that the Company made in the accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include allowances for loan losses, certain assumptions related to equity investments, goodwill and intangibles, accruals related to self-insurance, CSO liability for losses and estimated tax liabilities. Actual results may differ from those estimates.

CURO GROUP HOLDINGS CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

Troubled Debt Restructuring

In certain circumstances, the Company modifies the terms of its loans receivable for borrowers. Under US GAAP, a modification of loans receivable terms is considered a TDR if the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty and the Company grants a concession to the borrower it would not have otherwise granted. In light of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company established an enhanced Customer Care Program, which enables its team members to provide relief to customers in various ways, ranging from due date changes, interest or fee forgiveness, payment waivers or extended payment plans, depending on a customer’s individual circumstances. The Company modifies loans only if it believes the customer has the ability to pay under the restructured terms. The Company continues to accrue and collect interest on these loans in accordance with the restructured terms.

The Company records its allowance for loan losses related to TDRs by discounting the estimated cash flows associated with the respective TDR at the effective interest rate immediately after the loan modification and records any difference between the discounted cash flows and the carrying value as an allowance adjustment. A loan that has been classified as a TDR remains so until the loan is paid off or charged off. A TDR is charged off consistent with the Company's policies for the related loan product. For additional information on the Company's loss recognition policy, see the Company's 2019 Form 10-K.

Refer to Note 3 , "Loans Receivable and Revenue " for further information on TDRs as of June 30, 2020.

Goodwill

The annual impairment review for goodwill, ~~done on~~performed as of October 1, consists of performing a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that a reporting unit’s fair value is less than its carrying amount as a basis for determining whether or not further testing is required. The Company may elect to bypass the qualitative assessment and proceed directly to the two-step process, for any reporting unit, in any period. The Company can resume the qualitative assessment for any reporting unit in any subsequent period. If the Company determines, on the basis of qualitative factors, that it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than the carrying amount, the Company will then apply a two-step process of (i) determining the fair value of the reporting unit and (ii) comparing it to the carrying value of the net assets allocated to the reporting unit. When performing the two-step process, if the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds its carrying value, no further analysis or write-down of goodwill is required. In the event the estimated fair value of a reporting unit is less than the carrying value, the Company would recognize an impairment loss equal to such excess, which could significantly and adversely impact reported results of operations and stockholders’ equity.

During the fourth quarter of 2019, the Company performed a quantitative assessment for the U.S. and Canada reporting units. Management concluded that the estimated fair values of these ~~two~~2 reporting units were greater than their respective carrying values. ~~Due to COVID-19,~~In the second quarter of 2020, the Company ~~determined that a goodwill impairment evaluation triggering event occurred during the three months ended March 31, 2020. After performing~~performed an interim ~~review~~qualitative assessment of ~~impairment as of March 31, 2020,~~goodwill on both reporting units ~~continue~~ to ~~have estimated~~consider whether current events or circumstances, attributable to uncertainty caused by COVID-19, resulted in a more-likely-than-not determination that the fair values ~~greater than~~of the reporting units fell below their respective carrying values. The Company did not record an impairment loss during the six months ended June 30, 2020 as a result of its interim qualitative assessment of either reporting unit.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

ASU 2018-15

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-15, Customer's Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement that is a Service Contract (“ASU 2018-15”). ASU 2018-15 requires implementation costs incurred by customers in cloud computing arrangements to be deferred over the non-cancellable term of the cloud computing arrangements plus any optional renewal periods (i) that are reasonably certain to be exercised by the customer or (ii) for which exercise of the renewal option is controlled by the cloud service provider.

ASU 2018-13

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement (“ASU 2018-13”), which amends ASC 820, Fair Value ~~Measurement.~~Measurement. ASU 2018-13 modifies the disclosure requirements for fair value measurements by removing, modifying or adding certain disclosures. The Company adopted ASU 2018-13 as of January 1, 2020, which did not have a material impact on the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

ASU 2016-13

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments,” and subsequent amendments to the guidance: ASU 2018-19 in November 2018, ASU 2019-04 in April 2019, ASU 2019-05 in May 2019, ASU 2019-10 and 11 in November 2019, and ASU 2020-02 in February 2020. The amended standard ~~as amended,~~ changes how entities will measure credit losses for most financial assets and certain other instruments that are not measured at fair value through net income. The standard will replace the current “incurred loss” approach with an “expected loss” model for instruments measured at amortized cost. For available-for-sale debt securities, entities will be required to record allowances rather than reduce the carrying amount, as they currently do under the other-than-temporary impairment model. The standard also simplifies the accounting model for purchased credit-impaired debt securities and loans. The amendment will affect loans, debt securities, trade receivables, net investments in leases, off-balance sheet credit exposures, reinsurance receivables, and any other financial assets not excluded from the scope that have the contractual right to receive cash. ASU 2019-04 clarifies that equity instruments without readily determinable fair values for which an entity has elected the measurement alternative should be remeasured to fair value as of the date that an observable transaction occurred. ASU 2019-05 provides an option to irrevocably elect to measure certain individual financial assets at fair value instead of amortized cost. ASU 2019-10 amends the mandatory effective date for ASU 2016-13. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022 for entities that ~~are eligible to be defined by the SEC~~qualify as aan SRC, for which the Company currently qualifies. ASU 2019-11 provides clarity and improves the codification to ASU 2016-13. The amendments should be applied on either a prospective transition or modified-retrospective approach depending on the subtopic. As issued, ASU 2016-13 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods therein. Early adoption is ~~permitted for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods therein.~~permitted. The Company is evaluating its alternatives with respect to the available accounting methods under ASU ~~2016 13,~~2016-13, including the fair value option. If the fair value option is not utilized, adoption of ASU 2016-13 will increase the allowance for credit losses, with a resulting negative adjustment to retained earnings on the date of adoption. The Company ~~does not expect to adopt~~deferred the adoption of ASU 2016-13 ~~until at least January 1, 2021~~ as permitted under ASU 2019-10. The Company is currently assessing the impact ~~the~~that adoption of ASU 2016-13 will have on its Consolidated Financial Statements.

ASU 2020-01

In January 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-01, Investments-Equity Securities (Topic 321), Investments-Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323), and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815) (ASU 2020-01). ASU 2020-01 clarifies the interaction of the accounting for equity securities under Topic 321, the accounting for equity method investments in Topic 323, and the accounting for certain forward contracts and purchased options in Topic 815. ASU 2020-01 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, and interim periods within those fiscal years.

ASU 2020-04

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, “Reference Rate Reform - Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting.” This ASU provides temporary optional expedients and exceptions to US GAAP guidance on contract modifications and hedge accounting to ease the financial reporting burdens of the expected market transition from LIBOR and other interbank offered rates to alternative reference rates, such as the Secured Overnight Financing Rate. Entities can elect not to apply certain modification accounting requirements to contracts affected by this reference rate reform, if certain criteria are met. An entity that makes this election would not have to remeasure the contracts at the modification date or reassess a previous accounting determination. Entities can also elect various optional expedients that would allow them to continue applying hedge accounting for hedging relationships affected by reference rate reform, if certain criteria are met. The guidance is effective upon issuance and generally can be applied through December 31, 2022.

As of June 30, 2020, Installment and Open-End loans classified as nonaccrual were approximately $8.9 million and $5.3 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2019, Installment and Open-End loans classified as nonaccrual were approximately $16.6 million and $7.9 million, respectively.

NOTE 7 – INCOME TAXES

The Company's effective income tax rate was ~~5.1%~~5.0% and ~~25.9%~~27.4% for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The decrease in effective income tax rate was primarily due to a tax benefit from the CARES Act, which was enacted by the U.S. Federal government on March 27, 2020 in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The CARES Act, among other things, allows NOLs incurred in 2018, 2019 and 2020 to be carried back to each of the five preceding taxable years to generate a refund of previously-paid Federal income taxes. In the first quarter of 2020, the Company recorded an income tax benefit of $9.1 million related to the carry-back NOL from tax years 2018 and 2019, which will offset income earned in years prior to the 2017 tax reform and generate a refund of previously paid taxes at a 35%~~. In addition, losses~~ statutory rate. Additionally, in the second quarter of 2020, the Company recorded a tax benefit of $4.6 million from the release of a valuation allowance previously recorded against NOLs for certain entities in Canada. This benefit was partially offset by uncertain tax position reserve adjustments in the U.S. of $1.1 million.

Losses from the Company's equity method investment in Katapult for the six months ended June 30, 2020 are not tax deductible, thus increasing the ~~March 31, 2020~~above effective income tax rate.

The Company intends to reinvest Canada earnings indefinitely in its Canadian operations and therefore has not provided for any non-U.S. withholding tax that would be assessed on dividend distributions. If the earnings of ~~$153.8~~$185.2 million were distributed to the U.S., legal entities, the Company would be subject to Canadian withholding taxes of an estimated ~~$7.7~~$9.3 million. In the event the earnings

NOTE 8 – FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. The Company is required to use valuation techniques that are consistent with the market approach, income approach and/or cost approach. Inputs to valuation techniques refer to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on observable market data obtained from independent sources, or unobservable, meaning those that reflect the Company's own estimate about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on the best information available in the circumstances. Accounting standards establish a three-level fair value hierarchy based upon the assumptions (inputs) used to price assets or liabilities. The hierarchy requires the Company to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.

The three levels of inputs used to measure fair value are listed below.

Level 1 – Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has access to at the measurement date.

Level 2 – Inputs include quoted market prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means (market corroborated inputs).

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs reflecting the Company's own judgments about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability since limited market data exists. The Company develops these inputs based on the best information available, including its own data.

Loans receivable are carried on the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets net of the Allowance for loan losses. The unobservable inputs used to calculate the carrying values include quantitative factors, such as current default trends. Also considered in evaluating the accuracy of the models are changes to the loan portfolio mix, the impact of new loan products, changes to underwriting criteria or lending policies, new store development or entrance into new markets, changes in jurisdictional regulations or laws, recent credit trends and general economic conditions. The carrying value of loans receivable approximates their fair value. Refer to Note 3, "Loans Receivable and Revenue" for additional information.

During 2019, Katapult completed an incremental equity round at a value per share less than the value per share raised in prior raises. This round included additional investments from existing shareholders and investments by new investors, and was considered indicative of the fair value of shares in Katapult. Accordingly, the Company recognized a $3.7 million loss on its investment to adjust it to market value. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, the Company owned approximately 42.5% of the outstanding shares of Katapult.

In connection with CSO programs, the Company guarantees consumer loan payment obligations to unrelated third-party lenders for loans that the Company arranges for consumers on the third-party lenders’ behalf.

Diluted earnings per share $ 0.87
$ 0.79

Potential shares of common stock that would have the effect of increasing diluted earnings per share or decreasing diluted loss per share are considered to be anti-dilutive and as such, these shares are not included in calculating ~~"Diluted~~diluted earnings per share." For the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, there were 2.3 million and ~~March 31,~~1.7 million, respectively, and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019,, there were 1.3 million and ~~1.4~~1.2 million, respectively, of potential shares of common stock excluded from the calculation of ~~Diluted~~diluted earnings per share because their effect was anti-dilutive.

The Company utilizes the "control number" concept in the computation of ~~Diluted~~diluted earnings per share to determine whether potential common stock instruments are dilutive. The control number used is income from continuing operations. The control number concept requires that the same number of potentially dilutive securities applied in computing ~~Diluted~~diluted earnings per share from continuing operations be applied to all other categories of income or loss, regardless of their anti-dilutive effect on such categories.

NOTE 13 – COMMITMENTS AND ~~CONTENGENCIES~~CONTINGENCIES

Securities Litigation and Enforcement

On December 5, 2018, a putative securities fraud class action lawsuit was filed against the Company and its chief executive officer, chief financial officer and chief operating officer in the United States District Court for the District of Kansas, captioned Yellowdog Partners, LP v. CURO Group Holdings Corp., Donald F. Gayhardt, William Baker and Roger W. Dean, Civil Action No. ~~18-2662.~~18-2662 (the "Yellowdog Action"). On May 31, 2019, ~~plaintiffs~~plaintiff filed a consolidated complaint naming Doug Rippel, Chad Faulkner, Mike McKnight, Friedman Fleischer & Lowe Capital Partners II, L.P., FFL Executive Partners II, L.P., and FFL Parallel Fund II, L.P. (collectively, the "FFL Defendants") as additional defendants. The complaint alleges that the Company and the individual defendants violated Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") and that certain defendants also violated Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act as "control persons" of CURO. ~~Plaintiffs purport~~Plaintiff purports to bring these claims on behalf of a class of investors who purchased Company common stock between April 27, 2018 and October 24, 2018.

~~Plaintiffs allege~~Plaintiff generally alleges that, during the putative class period, the Company made misleading statements and omitted material information regarding its efforts to transition the Canadian inventory of products from Single-Pay loans to Open-End loans. ~~Plaintiffs assert~~Plaintiff asserts that the Company and the individual defendants made these misstatements and omissions to keep the stock price high. ~~Plaintiffs seek~~Plaintiff seeks unspecified damages and other relief.

On May 27, 2020, the parties accepted a mediator’s proposal to settle the action for $9.0 million. On June 1, 2020, the parties informed the Court of the settlement. On August 1, 2020, the parties’ submitted settlement papers to the Court seeking an order preliminarily approving the proposed settlement and providing for notice to the class and a final settlement hearing. The Company's directors' and officers' insurance carriers are expected to pay any amount in excess of the $2.5 million retention under the policy. As of June 30, 2020, the Company recorded a $9.0 million receivable in "Other assets" and an incremental $9.0 million liability in "Accounts Payable and accrued liabilities." In addition, there was $1.3 million in "Accounts payable and accrued liabilities," which represents the liability remaining of the $2.5 million insurance retention less cash payments made toward the retention.

On June 25, 2020, July 2, 2020 and July 16, 2020, three shareholder derivative lawsuits were filed against certain directors and officers of the Company, the Company, and in two of the three lawsuits, the FFL Defendants, in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware. Plaintiffs generally allege the same underlying facts of the Yellowdog Action.

While the Company is vigorously contesting ~~this lawsuit,~~these lawsuits, it cannot determine the final resolution or when itthey might be resolved. In addition to the expenses incurred in defending ~~this litigation~~these litigations and any damages in excess of insurance coverages that may be awarded in the event of anany adverse ~~ruling,~~rulings, management’s efforts and attention may be diverted from the ordinary business operations to address these claims. Regardless of the ~~outcome, this litigation~~outcomes, these litigations may have a material

adverse impact on results because of defense costs, including costs related to indemnification obligations, diversion of resources and other factors.

During the first quarter of 2019, the Company received an inquiry from the SEC regarding the Company's public disclosures surrounding its efforts to transition the Canadian inventory of products from Single-Pay loans to Open-End loans. During the second quarter of 2020, the SEC requested information from the Company concerning third-party information cited in plaintiff's complaint in the Yellowdog Action, and the mediation process described above.

City of Austin

The Company was cited in July 2016 by the City of Austin, Texas for alleged violations of the Austin ordinance addressing products offered by CSOs. The Austin ordinance regulates aspects of products offered under the Company's CAB program, including loan sizes and repayment terms. The Company believes that: (i) the Austin ordinance (similar to its counterparts elsewhere in Texas) conflicts with Texas state law and (ii) in any event, the Company's product complies with the ordinance, when the ordinance is properly construed. The Austin Municipal Court agreed with the Company's position that the ordinance conflicts with Texas law and, accordingly, did not address the second argument. In September 2017, the Travis County Court reversed the Municipal Court’s decision and remanded the case for further proceedings. To date, a hearing and trial on the merits have not been scheduled.

On May 15, 2020, the City of Austin proposed an ordinance in direct response to a recent Texas Attorney General’s opinion which would arguably allow CSO’s to provide signature loans outside the regulatory authority of the OCCC and the City of Austin. The proposed ordinance was effective June 1, 2020. The City not only implemented restrictions on CSO transactions, but also revised certain definitions found in the ordinance. These revisions potentially affect the foundation upon which the Company's previous arguments in municipal court were based.

On June 8, 2020, another company within CURO's industry filed a Petition for Declaratory Relief, Application for Temporary Restraining Order, and Application for Temporary and Permanent Injunction against the City. The Temporary Restraining Order was granted, and extended to August 24, 2020. During the pendency of the Temporary Restraining Order, the revised ordinance is stayed as to its effectiveness for all impacted companies, including the Company.

The Company does not anticipate having a final determination of the lawfulness of its CAB program under the Austin ~~ordinance~~ordinances (and similar ordinances in other Texas cities) in the near future. A final adverse decision could result in material monetary liability

in Austin and elsewhere in Texas, and ~~would~~could force the Company to restructure the loans it originates in Austin and elsewhere in Texas.

Other Legal Matters

The Company is a defendant in certain litigation matters encountered from time-to-time in the ordinary course of business. Certain of these matters may be covered to an extent by insurance. While it is difficult to predict the outcome of any particular proceeding, the Company does not believe the result of any of these matters will have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, results of operations or financial condition.

NOTE 14 – LEASES

Operating leases entered into by the Company are primarily for retail stores in certain U.S. states and Canadian provinces. Leases classified as finance are immaterial to the Company as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020. Operating leases expire at various times through 2032. The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating leases are included in "Right of use asset - operating leases" and "Lease liability - operating leases" on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Typically, a contract is or contains a lease if it conveys the right to control the use of an identified property, plant or equipment (an identified asset) for a period of time in exchange for consideration. To determine whether a contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time, ~~an entity shall~~the Company must assess whether, throughout the period of use, the customer has both (i) the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from use of the identified asset and (ii) the right to direct the use of the identified asset. If the customer has the right to control the use of an identified asset for only a portion of the term of the contract, the contract contains a lease for that portion of the term.

CURO GROUP HOLDINGS CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

(unaudited)

The Company recognizes ROU assets and lease liabilities based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term at commencement date. The rate implicit in the Company's leases typically are not readily determinable. As a result, the Company uses its estimated incremental borrowing rate, as allowed by ASC 842, in determining the present value of lease payments. The incremental borrowing rate is based on internal and external information available at the lease commencement date and is determined using a portfolio approach (i.e., using the weighted average terms of all leases in the Company's portfolio). This rate is the theoretical rate the Company would pay to borrow an amount equal to the lease payments on a collateralized basis over a similar term as that of the portfolio.

The Company uses quoted interest rates obtained from financial institutions as an input, adjusted for Company specific factors, to derive the incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate for the leases. As new leases are added each period, the Company evaluates whether the incremental borrowing rate has changed. If the incremental borrowing rate has changed, the Company will apply the rate to new leases if not doing so would result in a material difference to the ROU asset and lease liability presented on the balance sheet.

The majority of the leases have an original term of five years with ~~two~~2 five-year renewal options. The ~~consumer price index~~Consumer Price Index is used in determining future lease payments and for purposes of calculating operating lease liabilities, lease terms include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. Most of the leases have escalation clauses and certain leases also require payment of period costs, including maintenance, insurance and property taxes. Some of the leases are with related parties and have terms similar to the non-related party leases. The Company's lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.

As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic that began during the three months ended March 31, 2020, CURO reviewed ROU assets for indicators of impairment. Under US GAAP, the model used to review ROU assets for impairment is consistent to that used for other long-lived assets, such as fixed assets. In applying the appropriate guidance, the Company noted there was no indicators of impairment as of March 31, 2020 related to its ROU assets.

NOTE 15 – DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

On February 25, 2019, in accordance with the provisions of the U.K. Insolvency Act 1986 and as approved by the Boards of Directors of the U.K. Subsidiaries, insolvency practitioners from KPMG were appointed as Administrators for the U.K. Subsidiaries. The effect of the U.K. Subsidiaries’ entry into administration was to place their management, affairs, business

The Company tests goodwill at least annually for impairment (the Company has elected to annually test for potential impairment of goodwill on October 1) and more frequently if indicators are present or changes in circumstances suggest that impairment may exist. The indicators include, among others, declines in sales, earning or cash flows or the development of a material adverse change in business climate. The Company assesses goodwill for impairment at the reporting unit level, which is defined as an operating segment or one level below an operating segment, referred to as a reporting unit. See Note 1, "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Nature of Operations" of the 2019 Form 10-K ~~filed with the SEC on March 9, 2020,~~ for additional information on the Company's policy for assessing goodwill for impairment.

The global crisis caused by~~ the ~~pandemic drove significant declines in macroeconomic market conditions and altered the assumptions used in the Company's forecast for both reporting units. After performing an~~ interim ~~review,~~qualitative assessment, the Company concluded that the fair value of each reporting unit was in excess of its respective carrying ~~value.~~value and did 0t record any impairment losses during the six months ended June 30, 2020.

Ad Astra Acquisition

The Company completed the acquisition of Ad Astra on January 3, 2020. Goodwill of $14.8 million was recorded onin the U.S. reporting unit during the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, based on the excess of the purchase price of the business combination over the fair value of the acquired net assets.

NOTE 18 – SHARE REPURCHASE PROGRAM

In February 2020, the Company's Board of Directors authorized a new share repurchase program for up to $25.0 million of its common stock. ~~Under the program, shares were repurchased in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions at times and amounts considered appropriate by CURO.~~ Due to uncertainty caused by COVID-19, the Board suspended the program on March 15, 2020. There were no material purchases inunder the program during the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020.

In April 2019, the Company's Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program providing for the repurchase of up to $50.0 million of its common stock. The repurchase program, which commenced June 2019, was completed in February 2020. Under this program, the Company repurchased 455,255 shares of its common stock at an average price of $10.45 per share for total consideration of $4.8 million during the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020. Purchases under the program were made from time-to-time in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions, or both, at the Company's discretion and subject to market conditions and other factors. Any repurchased shares are available for use in connection with equity plans or other corporate purposes.

Separately, in August 2019, the Company entered into a Share Repurchase Agreement (the “Share Repurchase Agreement”) with FFL, a related party. Pursuant to the Share Repurchase Agreement, the Company repurchased 2,000,000 shares of its common stock, par value $0.001 per share, owned by FFL, in a private transaction at a purchase price equal to $13.55 per share of Common Stock. The purchase price was determined by using the Company's closing common stock price on August 29, 2019 of $13.97, less a discount of 3.0%. This transaction occurred outside of the share repurchase program authorized in April 2019.

Overview

We are a growth-oriented, technology-enabled, highly-diversified, multi-channel and multi-product consumer finance company serving a wide range of underbanked consumers in the U.S. and Canada.

History

CURO was founded in 1997 to meet the growing needs of underbanked consumers looking for access to credit. With ~~more than 20~~nearly 25 years of experience, we seek to offer a variety of convenient, easily-accessible financial and loan services in all of our markets.

CURO Financial Technologies Corp., previously known as Speedy Cash Holdings Corp. ("CFTC"), was incorporated in Delaware in July 2008. CURO Group Holdings Corp., previously known as Speedy Group Holdings Corp., was incorporated in Delaware in 2013 as the parent company of CFTC. The terms “CURO," "we,” “our,” “us” and the “Company” refer to CURO Group Holdings Corp. and its directly and indirectly owned subsidiaries as a combined entity, except where otherwise stated.

In the U.S., our stores operate under "Speedy Cash" and "Rapid Cash." In the second quarter of 2017, we launched "Avio Credit," an online Installment and Open-End brand. In February 2019, we launched Revolve Finance, a checking account solution, with FDIC-insured deposits, that combines a Visa-branded debit card, a number of technology-enabled tools and optional overdraft protection. In Canada, our stores are branded "Cash Money" and we offer "LendDirect" Installment and Open-End loans online and at certain stores. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, our network consisted of ~~416~~415 locations across 14 U.S. states and seven Canadian provinces and we offered our online services in 27 U.S. states and five Canadian provinces.

Recent Developments

COVID-19. A novel strain of coronavirus, known as COVID-19, surfaced in late 2019 and has spread around the world, including to the U.S. and, to a lesser extent, Canada. In March 2020, the World Health Organization categorized COVID-19 as a pandemic and the President of the United States declared the COVID-19 outbreak a national emergency. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, various governmental bodies have issued decrees prohibiting certain businesses from continuing to operate and certain classes of workers from reporting to work. ~~However,~~As the pandemic has continued to affect millions of people across the U.S. and Canada, with resurgences in some jurisdictions, guidance regarding reopening procedures, typically referred to as phases, has been provided. CURO's operations have been designated as essential financial services by federal guidelines and local regulations. As a provider of an essential service, we remain focused on protecting the health and wellbeing of our employees, customers, and the communities in which we operate while assuring the continuity of our business operations. In response to the pandemic, we have taken the following steps to ensure our financial stability while maintaining the health and ~~wellbeing~~well being of our employees and customers:

~~Full-year 2020 earnings guidance was withdrawn.~~

•Cancellation of the 2020 Short-Term Incentive Plan.

•Suspension of our $25 million share repurchase program, previously announced in February 2020.

•Suspension of earnings guidance in light of current macroeconomic events driven by the pandemic. We will continue to monitor conditions and provide guidance as appropriate.

•Establishment of an enhanced Customer Care Program, as described further below.

•Designation of stores across both the U.S. and Canada as an essential service, allowing stores to remain open during local governments' lock down orders.

•Adjustment of our credit underwriting models to tighten approval rates and enhance our employment and income verification practices for both the store and on-line lending platforms.

•Implementation of work-from-home for virtually all 1,100 of the Company’s contact center and corporate support personnel in Wichita, Toronto and Chicago.

For our communities, we committed $500,000 to support local healthcare workers battling COVID-19.

The CARES Act also included two provisions that directly impacted the demand for our products as well as our customers’ ability to make payments on their existing loans. The CARES Act included one-time Economic Impact Payments to American households of up to $1,200 per adult for individuals whose income was less than $99,000 (or $198,000 for tax joint filers) and $500 per child under 17 years old, up to $3,400 for a family of four if certain eligibility criteria were met.

Customer Care Program. To better serve our customers during the COVID-19 pandemic as they face unprecedented economic challenges and ~~uncertainties.~~uncertainties, we established an enhanced Customer Care Program. The program enables our team members to provide relief to customers in various ways, ranging from due date extensions, interest or fee forgiveness, payment waivers or extended payment plans, depending on a customer’s individual circumstances. As of June 30, 2020, we have granted concessions on more than 50,000 loans, or 11% of our active loans, and waived over $3.7 million in payments and fees. We also temporarily suspended all returned item fees.

Credit Facilities. On April 8, 2020, we entered into ~~incremental asset-backed revolving credit facility~~the Non-Recourse U.S. SPV Facility to provide financing for U.S. Installment and Open-End receivables, including those generated under our technology, marketing and servicing relationship with Stride Bank. The credit facility provides for an initial borrowing capacity of $100.0 million, dependent upon the borrowing base of eligible collateral and certain other conditions, as described in Note ~~19, "Subsequent Events.~~5, "Debt."

California Assembly Bill 539. On September 13, 2019, the California legislature passed Assembly Bill 539, which imposes an interest rate cap of 36%, plus the Federal Funds Rate, on all consumer loans between $2,500 and ~~$10,000 of 36%, plus the Federal Funds Rate.~~$10,000. The bill became effective on January 1, 2020.

CFPB Rule on Small Dollar Lending. On July 7, 2020, the CFPB issued its decision on the 2019 Proposed Rule and rescinded the mandatory underwriting provisions of the 2017 Final CFPB Rule. However, the CFPB did not rescind or alter the payment provisions of the 2017 Final CFPB Rule. We cannot predict when the payment provisions of the 2017 Final CFPB Rule will come into effect given that the rule is currently stayed as a result of an industry legal challenge. See "Regulatory Environment and Compliance" below for additional details of the CFPB rulemaking initiatives related to small dollar lending.

From a product perspective, Unsecured Installment and Secured Installment revenues decreased ~~9.8%~~$51.7 million, or 42.3%, and ~~4.3%~~$6.7 million, or 25.6%, respectively, ~~due to~~because of COVID-19 Impacts, regulatory changes in California effective January 1, 2020, and regulatory changes for CSOs in Ohio effective May 1, 2019.

Single-Pay revenue declined ~~$1.6~~$22.8 million, or ~~3.4%~~50.1%, for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020 compared to the prior-year period, primarily due to ~~lower volume~~COVID-19 impacts on loan balances, which declined $40.0 million, or 52.5%, year over year.

Year-over-year comparisons for the six-month periods also were affected by COVID-19 Impacts. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, total revenue declined $78.9 million, or 14.6%, to $463.3 million, compared to the prior-year period. Geographically, U.S. and Canada revenues declined 17.7% and 1.7%, respectively.

From a product perspective, Unsecured Installment and Secured Installment revenues decreased 25.2% and 14.7%, respectively, because of COVID-19 Impacts, regulatory changes in California effective January 1, 2020 and regulatory changes for CSOs in Ohio effective May 1, 2019.

Single-Pay revenue declined $24.4 million, or 26.4%, for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the prior-year period, primarily due to COVID-19 impacts on loan balances, which declined $40.0 million, or 52.5%, year over year.

Ancillary revenues, which included ~~$9.1 million of revenue related to~~ the sale of insurance ~~products. The $9.1 million of revenue is comprised of $5.8 million of commissions earned~~products to Open-End and Installment loan customers in Canada, decreased 4.8% versus the prior-year period, stemming from the sale of third-party insurance premiums at the time of sale and $3.3 million from a profit-sharing arrangement with this third-party. The amount we earn under the profit-sharing arrangement is dependent upon the level of claims adjudicated, which are related to our customers.

Loan Volume and Portfolio Performance Analysis

Unsecured Installment Loans - Company Owned

Company Owned Unsecured Installment revenue and related gross ~~combined~~ loans receivable decreased ~~$13.4~~$26.4 million, or ~~9.8%~~44.1%, and ~~$44.2~~$83.1 million, or ~~20.0%~~50.5%, respectively, from the prior-year period ~~primarily~~ due to COVID-19 Impacts and regulatory changes in California effective January 1, 2020.

Sequentially, excluding California, Company Owned Unsecured Installment loans ~~Guaranteed by the Company declined $5.6~~receivable decreased $27.0 million, year-over-year due to regulatory changes in Ohio, effective May 1, 2019. As a result, we no longer operate as a CSO in Ohio, which accounted for $5.1 million of Unsecured Installment loans Guaranteed by the Company as ofor 37.7%, from March 31, ~~2019. Unsecured Installment loan balances Guaranteed by the Company~~2020, while revenue decreased $17.2 million, or 45.1%.

~~The~~2019.However, the NCO rate for Company Owned Unsecured Installment gross loans ~~receivable~~receivables in the ~~first~~second quarter of 2020 increased approximately ~~155 basis points ("bps")~~300 bps year-over-year. Year-over-year NCO rate comparisons were affected significantly by the quarterly sequential trends in loan balances (i.e., the denominator in the NCO rate calculation). The year-over-year ~~primarily~~increase in NCO rate was due to the timing and matching of NCOs and gross loans receivable. As receivables age 90 days prior to charge off, charge-offs in a ~~mix shift away~~quarter relate to receivables and originations from ~~California~~the prior quarter and earlier. Loan balances grew sequentially in the second quarter of 2019, which temporarily had the effect of lowering the NCO rate. Loan balances declined sequentially in the second quarter of 2020, which temporarily had the effect of increasing the NCO rate. These trends and effects are collectively referred to as ~~a result~~the "Denominator Effect" for the remainder of ~~regulatory changes.~~this Form 10-Q and impacted comparability of NCO rates year-over-year. In addition, California NCO rates for Unsecured Installment loans are historically lower than our other ~~major~~ states. California comprised ~~46.4%~~52.1% of total U.S. Company Owned Unsecured Installment loans as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, compared to ~~60.7%~~57.5% as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019.

Loans classified as TDRs remain included within Company Owned gross loans receivable. Amounts waived on these loans are immediately charged-off and the impairment for these loans is included within the Allowance ~~Build.~~for loan losses. Determination of the impairment for TDRs includes an estimate of lifetime losses on these loans, which is greater than estimated incurred losses at a point in time. Sequentially, ~~(described within this release as~~past-due balances improved from 28.4% to 21.8% and allowance coverage decreased from 23.5% to 22.6% during the ~~change from~~three months ended June 30, 2020.

~~Consolidated~~ of $10.9 million, or 17.0%. Open-End ~~NCO rate during the three months ended March 31,~~loan balances as of June 30, 2020 ~~improved 160 bps versus the prior-year period, primarily as a result of seasoning of the Canada portfolio, which improved 165 bps year-over-year~~decreased $28.9 million, or 9.2% ($38.4 million, or 12.2%, on a ~~pro forma basis as described below.~~ constant-currency basis), sequentially due to COVID-19 Impacts.

The Open-End Allowance for loan losses as a percentage of Open-End gross loans receivable ~~increased~~decreased sequentially from ~~16.4%~~18.0% to ~~18.0% for~~16.6% as of June 30, 2020. The decrease was primarily due to a shift in the ~~three months ended March 31, 2020 because~~geographic mix shift of ~~Allowance Build.~~receivables, the sequential decline in past-due balances as a percentage of gross loans receivable from 15.9% to 10.9% and an 85 bps sequential improvement in Open-End NCO rates. Year-over-year, NCO rates were impacted by the Denominator Effect and increased 100 bps. The decrease in allowance coverage was partially attributable to the continued Open-End product maturation in Canada.

Q1 2019 Open-End Loss Recognition Change

Effective January 1, 2019, we modified the timeframe over which we charge-off Open-End loans and made related refinements to our loss provisioning methodology. Prior to January 1, 2019, we deemed Open-End loans uncollectible and charged-off when a customer missed a scheduled payment and the loan was considered past-due. Because of our continuing shift to Open-End loans in Canada and our analysis of payment patterns on early-stage versus late-stage delinquencies, we revised our estimates and now consider Open-End loans uncollectible when the loan has been contractually past-due for 90 consecutive days. Consequently, past-due Open-End loans and related accrued interest now remain in loans receivable for 90 days before being charged off against the allowance for loan losses. All recoveries on charged-off loans are credited to the allowance for loan losses. We evaluate the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses compared to the related gross loans receivable balances that include accrued interest.

Prospectively from January 1, 2019, past-due, unpaid balances plus related accrued interest charge-off on day 91.

The aforementioned change was treated as a change in accounting estimate for accounting purposes and applied prospectively beginning January 1, 2019.

For the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020 and 2019

Revenue and Net Revenue

Revenue ~~increased $2.9~~decreased $81.8 million, or ~~1.0%~~30.9%, to ~~$280.8~~$182.5 million for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, from ~~$277.9~~$264.3 million for the three months ended ~~March 31, 2019.~~June 30, 2019, as a result of the declines in combined gross loan receivables discussed previously. Year-over-year U.S. ~~revenue~~and Canada revenues decreased ~~1.9% primarily due to regulatory changes in California. Excluding California, U.S. revenue increased 4.6%~~34.6% and 16.7%, primarily driven by Open-End growth. Canadian revenue increased 13.9% primarily due to growth in Open-End loans and the sale of payment protection insurance to Canadian Installment and Open-End customers.respectively.

Provision for losses ~~increased~~decreased by ~~$11.2~~$61.3 million, or ~~10.9%~~54.7%, for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020 compared to the prior-year period. The ~~increase~~decrease in provision for loan losses was ~~primarily~~due to the sequential decline in loan balances in the second quarter of 2020 and better credit performance from ~~$12.0 million of Allowance Build,~~COVID-19 Impacts as discussed in more detail in the ~~"—Loan Volume~~"Loan Product and Portfolio ~~Performance~~Performance" and "Segment Analysis" ~~above and "—Segment Analysis" below.~~sections.

Cost of Providing Services

Non-advertising costs of providing services decreased ~~$6.9~~$8.8 million, or ~~11.1%~~15.0%, to ~~$55.4~~$49.6 million in the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, compared to ~~$62.3~~$58.3 million in the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019. Of the ~~$6.9~~$8.8 million decrease, ~~$4.7~~$3.7 million iswas related to third-party collection costs incurred in 2019 related to Ad Astra, which were included in Non-advertising costs of providing services. ~~Following~~Subsequent to our acquisition of Ad Astra, ona wholly owned subsidiary as of January 3, 2020, its operating costs are included within "Corporate, district and other expenses," consistent with presentation of our other internal collection costs. The remaining decrease year-over-year in Non-advertising costs of providing services ~~is from headcount reductions in the three months ended March 31, 2019~~was due to (i) lower underwriting and other variable costs as a result of lower demand, (ii) lower collection costs after stimulus-related pay-downs and (iii) lower discretionary variable ~~compensation comparisons.~~compensation.

Advertising costs ~~increased $4.4~~decreased $7.0 million, or ~~56.9%~~55.0%, ~~year-over-year. We historically reduced advertising and customer acquisition costs seasonally in the first quarter of the year (concentrated in February)~~year-over-year because of ~~the impact on customers of U.S. federal income tax refunds. In the three months ended March 31, 2020, based on improved underwriting~~COVID-19 Impacts.

Corporate, district and evaluation of the seasonal opportunity, we increased advertising costs through the traditional tax refund season. We subsequently reduced advertising costs in the last three weeks of March 2020 because of COVID-19-related considerations.other expenses

~~Operating Expenses~~

Corporate, district and other expenses were ~~$42.8~~$36.8 million for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, ~~a decrease~~an increase of ~~$6.3~~$1.5 million, or ~~12.8%~~4.2%, compared to the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019. Corporate, district and other expenses in the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020 ~~include $3.5~~included $2.1 million of collection costs related to Ad Astra, which ~~were~~we included in Non-advertising costs of providing services prior to ~~its~~ acquisition. For the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, corporate, district and other expenses ~~include~~also included (i) ~~$1.1~~$3.3 million of ~~legal and other~~share-based compensation costs, (ii) $2.2 million of Canadian GST described in our reconciliation to Adjusted Net Income ~~in "—Supplemental Non-GAAP Financial Information" below,~~above, and ~~(ii) $3.2~~(iii) $0.9 million of ~~share-based compensation costs.~~legal and other costs also described in our reconciliation to Adjusted Net Income above. For the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019, corporate district and other ~~expenses include~~costs included (i) share-based compensation costs of $2.6 million and (ii) U.K. related costs of ~~$7.8 million and severance costs of $1.8~~$0.7 million as described in our reconciliation to Adjusted Net Income ~~in "—Supplemental Non-GAAP Financial Information" below, and (ii) share-based compensation costs of $2.2 million.~~above.

Excluding Ad Astra costs, share-based compensation expense and other costs described above, comparable corporate, district and other expenses decreased ~~$2.4~~$3.7 million year-over-year, primarily due to the timing and extent of variable compensation ~~in the three months ended March 31, 2019~~ and ~~market-based changes in deferred compensation plan assets and liabilities.~~other cost reductions including work-from-home initiatives to manage COVID-19 Impacts.

Equity Method Investment

We account for our investment in Katapult under the equity method. We record our pro rata share of Katapult's income or losses on a two-month lag in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations, with a corresponding adjustment to the carrying value of our investment in "Other assets" on the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. For the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, our share of Katapult's ~~loss~~income was ~~$1.6~~$0.7 million.

Interest Expense

Interest expense for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020 remained consistent with the prior-year period on flat year-over-year average ~~borrowing.~~borrowings.

Provision for Income Taxes

The effective income tax rate for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020 was ~~5.1%~~4.8%, compared to a tax rate of ~~25.9%~~29.7% for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019. The decrease in the effective income tax rate was primarily due to a tax benefit of $4.6 million from the release of a valuation allowance previously recorded against NOLs for certain entities in Canada. This benefit was partially offset by uncertain tax position reserve adjustments in the U.S. of $1.1 million. Additionally, during the quarter, we recognized income from our equity method investment in Katapult, which is not taxable due to the gain offsetting prior accumulated losses. Excluding the impact of the NOL benefit in Canada, the uncertain tax position reserve adjustment, and our investment in Katapult, our adjusted effective income tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2020 was 21.2%, due primarily to changes in state income mix during the quarter.

For the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019

Revenue and Net Revenue

Revenue decreased $78.9 million, or 14.6%, to $463.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, from $542.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, as a result of the declines in combined gross loans receivable discussed above. Year-over-year, U.S. and Canada revenues decreased 17.7% and 1.7%, respectively.

Provision for losses decreased by $50.2 million, or 23.4%, for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the prior-year period. The decrease in provision for loan losses was primarily due to lower loan volume and lower NCOs as a result of COVID-19 Impacts as discussed in more detail in the "Loan Product and Portfolio Performance" and "Segment Analysis" sections.

Cost of Providing Services

Non-advertising costs of providing services decreased $15.7 million, or 13.0%, to $104.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to $120.6 million in the six months ended June 30, 2019. Of the $15.7 million decrease, $8.4 million was related to third-party collection costs incurred in 2019 related to Ad Astra, which were included in Non-advertising costs of providing services. Subsequent to our acquisition of Ad Astra, we include its operating costs within "Corporate, district and other expenses," consistent with the presentation of our other internal collection costs. The remaining decrease year-over-year in Non-advertising costs of providing services was due to (i) lower underwriting and other variable costs as a result of lower demand, (ii) lower collection costs after governmental stimulus-related pay-downs and (iii) lower discretionary variable compensation.

Advertising costs decreased $2.6 million, or 12.6%, year-over-year because of COVID-19 Impacts.

Corporate, district and other expenses

Corporate, district and other expenses were $79.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, a decrease of $4.8 million, or 5.7%, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2019. Corporate, district and other expenses in the six months ended June 30, 2020 included $5.6 million of collection costs related to Ad Astra, which prior to the acquisition of it in January 2020, were included in Non-advertising costs of providing services. For the six months ended June 30, 2020, corporate, district and other expenses also included (i) $6.5 million of share-based compensation costs, (ii) $2.2 million of Canadian GST described in our reconciliation to Adjusted Net Income above and (iii) $2.1 million of legal and other costs also described in our reconciliation to Adjusted Net Income above. For the six months ended June 30, 2019, corporate district and other costs included (i) U.K. related costs of $8.5 million, (ii) $4.8 million of share-based compensation and (iii) $1.8 million of legal and other costs as described in our reconciliation to Adjusted Net Income above.

Excluding Ad Astra costs, share-based compensation expense and other costs described above, comparable corporate, district and other expenses decreased $6.1 million year-over-year, primarily due to the timing and extent of variable compensation and other cost reductions including work-from-home initiatives to manage COVID-19 Impacts.

Equity Method Investment

We account for our investment in Katapult under the equity method. We record our pro rata share of Katapult's income or losses on a two-month lag in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations with a corresponding adjustment to the carrying value of our investment in "Other assets" on the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. For the six months ended June 30, 2020, our share of Katapult's loss was $0.9 million.

Interest Expense

Interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2020 remained consistent with the prior-year period on flat year-over-year average borrowings.

Provision for Income Taxes

The effective income tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was 5.0%, compared to a tax rate of 27.4% for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The decrease in the effective income tax rate was the result of two discrete, one-time developments related to usage of NOLs. First, the CARES Act, which was enacted on March 27, 2020 in response to ~~the~~ COVID-19, ~~pandemic. The CARES Act,~~ among other things, allows NOLs incurred in 2018, 2019, and 2020 to be carried back to each of the five preceding taxable years to generate a refund of previously paid Federal income taxes. ~~In the first quarter of 2020, we~~We have recorded an income tax benefit of $9.1 million related to the carry-back of NOL from tax years 2018 and 2019, which will offset ~~pre-tax~~our tax liability for years prior to tax reform ~~years~~ and generate a refund of previously paid taxes at a 35%~~. In addition, losses~~ statutory rate. Additionally, we recorded a tax benefit of $4.6 million related to the release of a valuation allowance previously recorded against NOLs for certain entities in Canada. These benefits were partially offset by uncertain tax position reserve adjustments in the U.S. of $1.1 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, we also recognized a $0.9 million loss from our equity method investment in Katapult, ~~are~~which is not tax deductible. Excluding the impact of the CARES Act, the valuation allowance release benefit in Canada, the uncertain tax position reserve adjustment and our investment in Katapult, our adjusted effective income tax rate for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020 was ~~27.9%~~25.6%.

For the three months ended March 31, 2020, quarterly NCO rates increased approximately 140 bps compared to the pro-forma prior-year period due to the Installment portfolio mix shift to higher loss states,lower loan volume, as ~~well as loan balance declines late in March 2020 from COVID-19 impacts, which affected simple-average NCO rate calculations.~~previously discussed.

Non-advertising costs of providing services for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020 of ~~$37.2~~$33.7 million, decreased ~~of $7.7~~$7.6 million, or ~~17.2%~~18.4%, compared to ~~$45.0~~$41.2 million for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019. The decrease was primarily driven by ~~the aforementioned $4.7 million of~~ Ad Astra costs ~~subsequent~~of $3.7 million, which prior to ~~our~~its acquisition ~~of it.~~were included in Corporate, district and other expenses. The remaining decrease year-over-year in Non-advertising costs of providing services was ~~from headcount reductions in the three months ended March 31, 2019~~due to (i) lower underwriting and other variable costs as a result of lower demand, (ii) lower collection costs after governmental stimulus-related pay-downs and (iii) lower discretionary variable ~~compensation comparisons.~~compensation.

Excluding ~~these~~the aforementioned items, comparable corporate district and other expenses decreased ~~$2.6~~$3.1 million year-over-year, primarily due to the timing and extent of variable compensation and certain cost reductions, including work-from-home initiatives, to manage COVID-19 Impacts.

We hold a 42.5% ownership stake in Katapult and account for this ownership under the equity method of accounting. During the second quarter of 2020, Katapult’s leasing volumes benefited from the shift to online shopping during COVID-19 stay-at-home and quarantine orders. Katapult posted its highest weekly origination volumes and highest historical approval rates during the height of COVID-19 as stay-at-home consumers shopped online due to retail store closings and prime and near-prime online financing providers tightened credit and drove more customers to Katapult. Through the end of June, Katapult originated approximately $100 million in leases year-to-date compared to $30 million in the first half of 2019. Currently, one retail partner accounts for a majority of Katapult's volume. Credit trends have continued to improve even with the outsized growth in volume such that Katapult has turned profitable to us during the second quarter. We recognize our share of Katapult’s income on a two-month lag, from which we recorded income of $0.7 million for the ~~three~~second quarter of 2020 and a loss of $0.9 million for the six months ended ~~March 31, 2019 and market-based changes in deferred compensation plan assets and liabilities.~~June 30, 2020.

The decrease was primarily driven by Ad Astra costs of $8.4 million, which prior to its acquisition were included in Corporate, district and other expenses. The remaining decrease year-over-year in Non-advertising costs of providing services was due to (i) lower underwriting and other variable costs as a result of lower demand, (ii) lower collection costs after stimulus-related pay-downs and (iii) lower discretionary variable compensation.

Advertising costs decreased $1.3 million, or 7.5%, year-over-year because of COVID-19 Impacts.

Corporate, district and other expenses were $67.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, a decrease of $6.2 million, or 8.5%, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2019.

For the six months ended June 30, 2020, corporate, district and other costs included (i) $2.1 million of legal and other costs described in our reconciliation to Adjusted Net Income above and (ii) $6.5 million of share-based compensation costs. For the six months ended June 30, 2019, corporate, district and other expenses included (i) U.K. related costs of $8.5 million as described in our reconciliation to Adjusted Net Income above, and (ii) share-based compensation costs of $4.8 million.

Excluding these items, comparable corporate, district and other expenses decreased $5.5 million year-over-year, primarily due to the timing and extent of variable compensation and certain cost reductions, including work-from-home initiatives, to manage COVID-19 Impacts for the six months ended June 30, 2020.

As described above, we recognize our share of Katapult's income on a two-month lag and recorded a loss of $0.9 million for the first half of 2020.

The decrease in provision for loan losses was primarily a result of lower loan volume and lower NCOs as a result of COVID-19 Impacts as discussed previously. On a quarterly basis, despite COVID-19 Impacts, loss rates improved approximately 190 bps, or 28.4%, year over year due to stimulus-related pay-downs and overall portfolio maturation.

Canada cost of providing services for the three months ended June 30, 2020 was $16.4 million, a decrease of $2.3 million, or 12.3% ($1.7 million, or 9.1%, on a constant-currency basis), compared to $18.7 million for the three months ended June 30,

2019, primarily related to certain cost reductions to manage COVID-19 Impacts and reduced advertising efforts during the second quarter of 2020.

The increase was driven by continued growth of Open-End loan despite COVID-19 related impacts. Ancillary revenue, which includes sales of insurance to Open-End loan customers, remained flat year-over-year due to increased insurance claims from consumers impacted by COVID-19 during the second quarter of 2020.

Supplemental Non-GAAP Financial Information

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to the financial information prepared in conformity with US GAAP, we provide certain “non-GAAP financial measures,” including:

•Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings Per Share, or the Adjusted Earnings Measures (net income from continuing operations plus or minus restructuring and other costs, certain legal and related costs, gain or loss from equity method investment, goodwill and intangible asset impairments, certain costs related to the disposition of U.K., transaction-related costs, share-based compensation, intangible asset ~~amortization~~amortization. certain tax adjustments and impacts from tax law changes and cumulative tax effect of applicable adjustments, on a total and per share basis);

•EBITDA (net income from continuing operations before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization);

•Adjusted EBITDA (EBITDA plus or minus certain non-cash and other adjusting items);

•Adjusted effective income tax rate (effective tax rate plus or minus certain non-cash and other adjusting items); and

•Gross Combined Loans Receivable (includes loans originated by third-party lenders through CSO programs which are not included in our unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements).

We believe that presentation of non-GAAP financial information is meaningful and useful in understanding the activities and business metrics of the Company's operations. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures offer another way to view aspects of our business that, when viewed with our US GAAP results, provide a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our business.

We believe that investors regularly rely on non-GAAP financial measures, such as Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Earnings per Share, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, to assess operating performance and that such measures may highlight trends in the business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying on financial measures calculated in accordance with US GAAP. In addition, we believe that the adjustments shown below are useful to investors in order to allow them to compare our financial results during the periods shown without the effect of each of these income or expense items. In addition, we believe that Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Earnings per Share, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of public companies in our industry, many of which present Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Earnings per Share, EBITDA and/or Adjusted EBITDA when reporting their results.

In addition to reporting loans receivable information in accordance with US GAAP, we provide Gross Combined Loans Receivable consisting of Company-Owned loans receivable plus loans originated by third-party lenders through the CSO programs, which we guarantee but do not include in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements ("Guaranteed by the Company"). Management believes this analysis provides investors with important information needed to evaluate overall lending performance.

We provide non-GAAP financial information for informational purposes and to enhance understanding of our US GAAP unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Earnings per Share, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Gross Combined Loans Receivable should not be considered as alternatives to income from continuing operations, segment operating income or any other performance measure derived in accordance with US GAAP, or as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities or any other liquidity measure derived in accordance with US GAAP. Readers should consider the information in addition to, but not instead of or superior to, the financial statements prepared in accordance with US GAAP. This non-GAAP financial information may be determined or calculated differently by other companies, limiting the usefulness of those measures for comparative purposes.

Description and Reconciliations of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Earnings per Share, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA measures have limitations as analytical tools, and you should not consider these measures in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our income or cash flows as reported under US GAAP. Some of these limitations are:

•they do not include cash expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;

•they do not include changes in, or cash requirements for, working capital needs;

•they do not include the interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on debt;

•depreciation and amortization are non-cash expense items reported in the statements of cash flows; and

•other companies in our industry may calculate these measures differently, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures.

We calculate Adjusted Earnings per Share utilizing diluted shares outstanding at year-end. If we record a loss from continuing operations under US GAAP, shares outstanding utilized to calculate Diluted Earnings per Share from continuing operations are equivalent to basic shares outstanding. Shares outstanding utilized to calculate Adjusted Earnings per Share from continuing operations reflect the number of diluted shares we would have reported if reporting net income from continuing operations under US GAAP.

As noted above, Gross Combined Loans Receivable includes loans originated by third-party lenders through CSO programs which are not included in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements but from which we earn revenue and for which we provide a guarantee to the lender. Management believes this analysis provides investors with important information needed to evaluate overall lending performance.

We believe Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Earnings per Share, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are used by investors to analyze operating performance and evaluate our ability to incur and service debt and the capacity for making capital expenditures. Adjusted EBITDA is also useful to investors to help assess our estimated enterprise value. The computation of

Adjusted EBITDA as presented in this Form 10-Q may differ from the computation of similarly-titled measures provided by other companies.

(1)			Legal and other costs for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020 ~~include~~included (i) settlement costs related to certain legal matters (ii) costs related to certain securities litigation and related matter, ~~(ii)~~(iii) severance costs for certain corporate employees and ~~(iii)~~(iv) legal and advisory costs related to the purchase of Ad Astra. Legal and other costs of $1.8 million for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019 were due to eliminating 121 positions in North America. The store employee reductions helped better align store staffing with in-store customer traffic and volume patterns, as more of our growth comes from online channels and as store customers require less time in stores as they conduct more of the follow-up activities online. The elimination of certain corporate positions related to efficiency initiatives and has allowed the Company to reallocate investment to strategic growth activities.
~~(2)~~

(2)			U.K. related costs of ~~$7.8~~$8.5 million for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019 relate to placing the U.K. subsidiaries into administration on February 25, 2019, which included $7.6 million to obtain consent from the holders of the 8.25% Senior Secured Notes to deconsolidate the U.K. Segment and ~~$0.2~~$0.9 million for other costs.
~~(3)~~
(3)			The Loss from equity method investment for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020 of ~~$1.6~~$0.9 million includes our share of the estimated GAAP net loss of Katapult. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, we owned 42.5% of the outstanding shares of Katapult. The Loss from equity method investment for the six months ended June 30, 2019 of $3.7 million represented the market value adjustment recognized during the second quarter of 2019 as a result of an equity raising round from April through July of 2019 that implied a value per share less than the value per share raised in prior raises.
(4)			We approved the adoption of share-based compensation plans during 2010 and 2017 for key members of senior management. The estimated fair value of share-based awards is recognized as non-cash compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the vesting period.

(5)			We received a Notice of Adjustment from Canadian tax authority auditors in the second quarter 2020 related to the treatment of certain expenses in prior years for purposes of calculating the GST due.
(6)			In the second quarter of 2020, a Texas court ruling related to the apportionment of income to the state for another company resulted in a change in estimate regarding the realization of a tax benefit previously taken. Accordingly, we recorded a $1.1 million liability for our estimated exposure related to this position. Also in the second quarter of 2020, we released a $4.6 million valuation allowance related to NOLs for certain entities in Canada.
(7)			On March 27, 2020, the CARES Act was enacted by the U.S. Federal government in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The CARES Act, among other things, allows NOLs incurred in 2018, 2019 and 2020 to be carried back to each of the five preceding taxable years to generate a refund of previously paid income taxes. WeFor the six months ended June 30, 2020, we recorded an income tax benefit of $9.1 million related to the carryback of NOL from tax years 2018 and 2019.

We translate the statement of operations at the average rates of exchange for the period. We record currency translation adjustments as a component of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income in Stockholders’ Equity.

Constant Currency Analysis

We have operations in the U.S. and Canada. In the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020 and 2019, ~~21.0%~~24.8% and ~~18.6%~~20.5%, respectively, of our revenues from continuing operations were originated in Canadian Dollars. In the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, 22.5% and 19.6%, respectively, of our revenues from continuing operations were originated in Canadian Dollars.

The following constant currency analysis removes the impact of the fluctuation in foreign exchange rates and utilizes constant currency results in our analysis of segment performance. Our constant currency assessment assumes foreign exchange rates in the current fiscal periods remained the same as in the prior fiscal periods. All conversion rates below are based on the U.S. Dollar equivalent to the Canadian Dollar. We believe that the constant currency assessment below is a useful measure in assessing the comparable growth and profitability of our operations.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Our principal sources of liquidity to fund the loans we make to our customers are cash provided by operations, our Senior Revolver, our Cash Money Revolving Credit Facility, funds from third-party lenders under our CSO programs, our Non-Recourse U.S. SPV Facility and ~~our~~ Non-Recourse Canada SPV Facility. ~~During~~Additionally, in August 2018, we issued $690.0 million 8.25% Senior Secured Notes due September 2025 (i) to redeem the outstanding 12.00% Senior Secured Notes due 2022 of CFTC, (ii) to repay a portion of the outstanding indebtedness under the five-year revolving credit facility of CURO Receivables Finance I, LLC, our wholly-owned subsidiary, which consists of a term loan and revolving borrowing capacity, (iii) for general corporate purposes and (iv) to pay fees, expenses, premiums and accrued interest in connection with the foregoing.2025.

As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, we were in compliance with all financial ratios, covenants and other requirements set forth in our debt agreements. We anticipate that our primary use of cash will be to fund growth in our working capital, finance capital expenditures, and meet our debt obligations. As we did for our share repurchase programs announced in April 2019 and February 2020 (which we have suspended, as previously disclosed), we may also use cash to fund a return on capital for our stockholders through share repurchase programs, or as we previously announced ~~in February 2020,~~ in the form of dividends.

Our level of cash flow provided by operating activities typically experiences some seasonal fluctuation related to our levels of net income and changes in working capital levels, particularly loans receivable. Unexpected changes in our financial condition or other unforeseen factors may result in our inability to obtain third-party financing or could increase our borrowing costs in the future. We have the ability to adjust our volume of lending to consumers ~~which would reduce cash outflow requirements while increasing cash inflows through loan repayments~~ to the extent we experience any short-term or long-term funding ~~shortfalls.~~shortfalls, such as tightening our credit approval practices (as we have done during the COVID-19 pandemic), which has the effect of reducing cash outflow requirements while increasing cash inflows through loan repayments. We may also sell or securitize our assets, draw on our available revolving credit facility or line of credit, enter into additional refinancing agreements ~~and~~or reduce our capital spending in order to generate additional liquidity. As a result of lower consumer demand, increased or accelerated repayments as customers benefited from government stimulus programs, our decision to tighten credit and the resulting favorable credit performance, and the runoff of California Installment loans, our available cash on hand was $269.3 million and our total liquidity was $363.4 million as of June 30, 2020. We believe our cash on hand and available borrowings provide us with sufficient liquidity for at least the next 12 months.

Continuing Operating Activities

Net cash provided by continuing operating activities for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020 was ~~$151.9~~$270.8 million, primarily attributable to net income from continuing operations of $57.1 million, the effect of non-cash reconciling items of ~~$137.7~~$192.1 million, which includes provision for loan losses of ~~$113.5~~$164.2 million, ~~offset by~~and changes in our operating assets and liabilities which provided ~~$21.9~~$21.6 million.

Net cash provided by continuing operating activities for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019 was ~~$141.0~~$312.3 million, primarily attributable to net income from continuing operations of ~~$28.7~~$46.3 million, the effect of non-cash reconciling items of $227.6 million, which includes provision for loan losses of ~~$102.4~~$214.4 million, and changes in our operating assets and liabilities ~~of $12.1 million, partially offset by other non-cash expenses of $2.1~~which provided $38.4 million. ~~Major components of non-cash expenses include depreciation and amortization, provision for loan losses and share-based compensation expense.~~

Continuing Investing Activities

Net cash used in continuing investing activities for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020 was ~~$78.5~~$51.0 million, primarily reflecting the net origination of loans of ~~$60.4~~$31.8 million and the acquisition of Ad Astra for $14.4 million, net of cash received. ~~Net origination of loans includes $30.1~~In addition, we used cash to purchase $4.7 million of ~~cash inflows for California Unsecured~~property and ~~Secured Installment loans from December 31, 2019 to March 31, 2020 due to regulatory changes, effective January 1, 2020.~~equipment.

Net cash used in continuing investing activities for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019 was ~~$69.6~~$227.7 million, primarily reflecting the net origination of loans of ~~$64.9~~$217.2 million. In addition, we used cash to purchase approximately ~~$3.1~~$6.2 million of property and equipment, including software ~~licenses.~~licenses and $4.4 million of additional investment in Katapult.

Origination of loans will fluctuate from period-to-period, depending on the timing of loan issuances and collections. A seasonal decline in consumer loans receivable typically occurs during the first quarter of the year and is driven by income tax refunds in the U.S. Typically, customers will use the proceeds from income tax refunds to pay outstanding loan balances, resulting in an increase in our net cash balances and a decrease in our consumer loans receivable balances. Year-over-year comparisons were impacted by factors related to COVID-19, including lower consumer demand, increased or accelerated repayments as customers benefited from government stimulus programs and our decision to tighten credit which resulted in lower originations, as well as the runoff of California Installment loans from regulatory changes effective January 1, 2020.

Continuing Financing Activities

Net cash provided by continuing financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was $2.1 million, primarily due to $35.2 million of proceeds on our Non-Recourse U.S. SPV Facility, partially offset by a net pay-down on our Non-Recourse Canada SPV Facility of $18.6 million, common stock repurchases of $5.9 million, cash dividends of $4.5 million and debt issuance costs of $3.5 million related to the Non-Recourse U.S. SPV facility.

Net cash used in continuing financing activities for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31, 2020 was $2.7 million, primarily due to $6.1 million of net proceeds on our debt facilities, offset by common stock repurchases of $5.9 million and cash dividends of $2.2 million.~~

~~Net cash provided by continuing financing activities for the three months ended March 31,~~June 30, 2019 was ~~$41.3~~$45.2 million. During the quarter, we made a $20.0 million payment on the Senior Revolver to reduce the outstanding balance to zero and made net repayments of ~~$20.9~~$21.0 million on the Non-Recourse Canada SPV Facility.

Contractual Obligations

There have been no significant developments with respect to our contractual obligations since December 31, 2019, as described in our 2019 Form ~~10-K.~~10-K, except for the new Non-Recourse U.S. SPV Facility, entered into during April 2020. Refer to Note 5, "Debt" of the Notes to the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional details.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Certain accounting policies that involve a higher degree of judgement and complexity are discussed further in Part II - Item 7, Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates, in our 2019 Form 10-K.

Goodwill. We exercise judgment in evaluating assets for impairment. Goodwill is tested for impairment annually, or when circumstances arise which could more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying value. These tests require comparing carrying values to estimated fair values of the reporting unit under review.

The U.S. and Canada operations are our two reporting units, as defined by FASB’s ASC 280 - Segment Reporting, for which we assess goodwill for impairment. As of the most recent annual goodwill impairment testing date (October 1, 2019), both reporting units' estimated fair valued exceeded its carrying value. As described in our 2019 Form 10-K, an impairment would occur if the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeded the fair value of that reporting unit. Events or circumstances that could indicate an impairment include a significant change in the business climate, a change in strategic direction, legal factors, operating performance

indicators, a change in the competitive environment, the sale or disposition of a significant portion of a reporting unit or economic outlook. These and other macroeconomic factors, in general, were considered when performing the annual test on October 1, 2019.

In the ~~first~~second quarter of 2020, we performed an interim qualitative assessment of goodwill on both reporting units to consider whether current events or circumstances, attributable to uncertainty caused by COVID-19, resulted in a more likely than not reduction in the fair value of the reporting units below their respective carrying values.

~~Canada Reporting Unit~~

~~As part~~ We did not record any impairment losses during the six months ended June 30, 2020 as a result of our ~~quantitative testing process for goodwill of the Canada~~interim qualitative assessment on either reporting unit, we estimated fair values using a discounted cash flow approach from the perspective of a market participant. Significant assumptions used in the discounted cash flow approach are revenue growth rates, gross margin, EBITDA margins, discount rate and long-term revenue growth rate. The cash flow forecasts of the reporting unit, which we updated to reflect the uncertainty caused by COVID-19, are based on management’s long-term view of our markets and are the forecasts that senior management and the Board of Directors use to evaluate the Company's overall and individual reporting unit operating performance. The discount rate utilized is management’s estimate of what the market’s weighted average cost of capital is for a company with a similar debt rating and stock volatility, as measured by beta. The terminal business value is determined by applying the long-term growth rate to the latest year for which a forecast exists. As part of our goodwill quantitative testing process, we evaluate whether there are reasonably likely changes to management’s estimates that would have a material impact on the results of the goodwill impairment testing.unit.

As of March 31, 2020, no impairment of goodwill existed for the Canada reporting unit. Testing did indicate that the fair value of the Canada reporting unit exceeded its carrying value by less than 5%. This reduction in fair value of the Canada reporting unit, which was previously greater than 10% at the time of the October 1, 2019 annual impairment test, was primarily driven by significant uncertainty surrounding the effect that the COVID-19 pandemic will have on the reporting unit’s near-term cash flows, triggering a decrease in the reporting unit's forecasted near-term cash flows. The length of time and extent to which the pandemic will impact our customers remains unclear, and assumptions used in the discounted cash flow approach reflect management's estimates as of the date of this filing.

~~U.S. Reporting Unit~~

After performing a similar interim impairment test for the U.S. reporting unit as that for the Canada reporting unit utilizing a discounted cash flow method, which was adjusted for considerations related to COVID-19, we concluded that the fair value continues to be significantly in excess of the carrying value.

~~The following table summarizes the segment allocation of recorded goodwill on our unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of March 31, 2020:~~

(in thousands) March 31, 2020 Percent of Total December 31, 2019 Percent of Total
U.S. $ 105,922
79.7 % $ 91,131
75.6 %
Canada 26,903
20.3 % 29,478
24.4 %
Total Goodwill $ 132,825
$ 120,609

There continues to be uncertainty surrounding the macroeconomic factors for the U.S. andCanada reporting ~~unit.~~units. Changes in the expected length of the current economic downturn, timing of recovery, or long-term revenue growth or profitability for ~~this~~these reporting ~~unit~~units could increase the likelihood of a future impairment. Additionally, changes in market participant assumptions such as an increased discount rate or further share price reductions could increase the likelihood of a future impairment.

The following table summarizes the segment allocation of recorded goodwill on our unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of June 30, 2020:


(in thousands)	June 30, 2020		Percent of Total		December 31, 2019		Percent of Total

Regulatory Environment and Compliance

There have been no significant developments with respect to our regulatory environment and compliance since December 31, 2019, as described in our 2019 Form ~~10-K.~~10-K, except for the following:

CFPB Rulemaking Update

On July 7, 2020, the CFPB issued its decision on the 2019 Proposed Rule. With respect to the 2019 Proposed Rule, the CFBP rescinded the mandatory underwriting provisions of the 2017 Final CFPB Rule. However, the CFPB did not rescind or alter the payment provisions of the 2017 Final CFPB Rule. Furthermore, on July 7, 2020, the CFPB ratified prior regulatory actions which included the payments provisions of the 2017 Final CFPB Rule. The effective date of the payment provisions of the 2017 Final CFPB Rule is currently unknown. The 2017 Final CFPB rule is currently stayed as a result of an industry legal challenge. The next status conference is scheduled for September 11, 2020. In light of the industry challenge to the 2017 Final CFPB Rule, we cannot predict when the 2017 Final CFPB Rule as it relates to payments will ultimately go into effect; nor can we quantify its potential effect on our results of operations or financial condition.

California Consumer Privacy Act:

In 2018, the California Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA”) was passed into law, effective January 1, 2020, and the California Attorney General has enforcement authority as of July 1, 2020.

A ballot initiative, which would have additional impact, will be voted on in November 2020.

Legal Proceedings

Subsequent to the California Supreme Court’s decision in De La Torre v. CashCall, which found that the interest rate on a consumer loan of $2,500 or more can render the loans unconscionable under Cal. Fin. Code § 22303, a class action lawsuit entitled Delisle, et al. v. Speedy Cash was filed against Speedy Cash in the Southern District of California on August 31, 2018. The complaint alleges that Speedy Cash charges unconscionable interest rates, in violation of consumer protection statutes, and seeks restitution and public injunctive relief. A motion to compel arbitration and stay proceedings was filed by Speedy Cash on October 30, 2018. A District Court order denying that motion was entered on June 10, 2019. On June 9, 2020, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals entered a memorandum vacating and remanding the District Court’s opinion, and directing the District Court to consider what effect, if any, California Financial Code § 22304.5(a) has on its analysis.

On January 1, 2020, during the course of the Delisle proceedings, Cal. Fin. Code § 22304.5(a) took effect prohibiting finance lenders from issuing loans between $2,500 and $10,000 with charges over 36% calculated as an annual simple interest rate (plus the prior month’s Federal Funds Rate).

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

For quantitative and qualitative disclosures about our market risks, see "Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk" in our 2019 Form ~~10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.~~10-K. There have been no material changes to the amounts presented therein.

LIBOR is used as a reference rate for certain of our financial instruments, such as our revolving credit facilities. LIBOR is set to be phased out at the end of 2021. We are currently reviewing how the LIBOR phase-out will affect the Company, but we do not expect the impact to be material.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure controls and procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, including without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports we file under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objective and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based on an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report conducted by our management, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that these controls and procedures were effective as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020.

Limitation on the effectiveness of controls

Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all errors and all fraud. Any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objective and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. A control system also can be circumvented by collusion or improper management override. Because of such limitations, disclosure controls and internal control over financial reporting cannot prevent or detect all misstatements, whether unintentional errors or fraud. However, these inherent limitations are known features of the financial reporting process, therefore, it is possible to design into the process safeguards to reduce, though not eliminate, this risk.

Internal control over financial reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) during the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

The information required by this item is included in Note 13, "Contingent Liabilities" of the Notes to the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in this Form 10-Q and is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

~~There were no material changes to our~~The Company is supplementing the risk factors ~~as described~~previously disclosed in ~~our~~the Company's 2019 Form 10-K ~~for~~as follows:

A change in the ~~year ended December 31, 2019~~ United States' presidential administration and/or composition of Congress in ~~our Current Report~~the upcoming 2020 election could result in new legislation, rules and regulatory and enforcement policies with an adverse impact on ~~Form 8-K filed on April 8, 2020, except for the following:~~

~~We have covenants in our debt agreements which may restrict our flexibility to operate~~ our business. ~~If we do not comply with these covenants,~~

On June 29, 2020, in the Seila Law LLC v. CFPB case, the Supreme Court ruled that the single-director structure of the CFPB is unconstitutional. The Court noted the agency's structure vests too much power in the hands of one person, and that a president has broad constitutional authority to appoint and remove agency heads. This ruling, which gives a sitting president the ability to fire a CFPB director without cause, or “at-will,” could have far-reaching implications to our ~~failure~~business in the event a president appoints a director who has a negative view of our business and/or industry.

The CFPB recently finalized a new rule that may affect the consumer lending industry, and this rule could have a material adverse effect on our U.S. consumer lending business.

On July 7, 2020, the CFPB issued its Final Rule on Payday, Vehicle Title, and certain high-cost Installment loans ("2020 Final Rule"), rescinding the mandatory underwriting provisions first proposed in its 2019 Proposed Rule. In the 2019 Proposed Rule, the CFPB sought to rescind the mandatory underwriting provisions of the 2017 Final CFPB Payday Rule. In the 2020 Final Rule, the CFPB did not rescind or alter any other provisions of the 2017 Final CFPB Payday Rule, and the 2020 Final Rule ratified prior regulatory actions, which included the payments provisions of the 2017 Final CFPB Payday Rule. The 2017 Final CFPB Payday Rule is currently stayed as a result of an industry legal challenge and the effective date of the payment provisions is currently unknown. In light of this industry challenge, we cannot predict when it will ultimately go into effect or quantify its potential effect on our results of operations or financial condition.

~~Our debt agreements contain customary restrictive covenants, including limitations on consolidated indebtedness, liens, investments, subsidiary investments~~ If the payment provisions of the 2017 Final CFPB Payday Rule becomes effective in the current proposed form, we will need to make certain changes to our payment processes and ~~asset dispositions, and require us~~customer notifications in our U.S. consumer lending business. If we are not able to ~~maintain certain leverage and interest coverage ratios. Failure to comply with~~make these ~~covenants could result in an event~~changes effectively because of ~~default~~unexpected complexities, costs or otherwise, we cannot guarantee that ifthe payment provisions of the 2017 Final CFPB Payday Rule will not ~~cured or waived, could result in reduced liquidity and could~~ have a material adverse ~~effect~~impact on our ~~operating results and financial condition. In addition, an event of default under one of our debt agreements may result in our then-outstanding debt to become immediately due and payable.~~

In addition, Our Non-Recourse Canada SPV Facility and Non-Recourse U.S. SPV Facility contain default, delinquency and net spread ratio limits and our Non-Recourse U.S. SPV Facility also contains a cash collection percentage limit on the receivables pledged to each facility. If these limits were exceeded, it would potentially impact our ability to draw under the terms of these agreements. Further, in certain instances, if ratios are exceeded, we may be required to redirect all excess cash to the credit providers. These limits are calculated based on the portfolio collateralizing the respective credit line.

~~Failure to comply with our debt covenants could have a material adverse effect on our liquidity,~~business, prospects, results of ~~operation or~~operations, financial condition ~~if we are either unable to access capital at such time that it is critical to our business or if we are required to reduce our outstanding indebtedness.~~and cash flows.
