FirstCash Posts 3Q EPS of $2.33
FCFS sits 46% above its 52-week low of $146.77.
Summary
FirstCash reported third-quarter EPS of $2.33, with adjusted EPS of $2.68 versus an IBES estimate of USD 2.63, and net income of $101.2M on revenue of $545.5M. Context matters here: Q2 was a blowout, with 29% revenue growth and 58% EPS growth, and management lifted guidance and launched a fresh $150M buyback at that time. Against that bar, the market will judge $2.33 on whether it extends the Q2 pace. The stock trades around $215 on a roughly $9.4B market cap, so expectations are already elevated.
