DFC GLOBAL CORP. ANNOUNCES FISCAL 2014 FIRST QUARTER RESULTS

Berwyn, Pennsylvania – October 30, 2013 – DFC Global Corp. (NASDAQ: DLLR), a leading international diversified financial services company serving primarily unbanked and under-banked consumers for over 30 years, today announced its results for the fiscal 2014 first quarter ended September 30, 2013.

Fiscal Year 2014 First Quarter Highlights

“Our overall fiscal first quarter performance was in-line with our expectations, as we are still in the midst of a transition period in the United Kingdom,” said Jeff Weiss, the Company’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “During the quarter, we completed the implementation of a number of regulatory related changes across our three retail and internet lending platforms in the United Kingdom. These loan program modifications addressed issues raised by the Office of Fair Trading (OFT) in their responsible lending guidelines, which mostly pertain to loan disclosures, loan affordability assessments, loan extension limitations and collection practices. As a result of our conservative interpretation of these guidelines, we believe many of the modifications we made are more restrictive than the current policies of many of our competitors, which has presently positioned our Company at a competitive disadvantage compared to other lenders. However, recently issued proposals published by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), which will take over regulation of the industry in the United Kingdom on April 1, 2014, set forth for public comment additional restrictions on the terms and conditions for short-term loan products, and suggested a timeline for implementing these changes by July 1, 2014. We believe these new lending proposals strongly favor lenders with more robust credit scoring and collections capabilities, due principally to the tighter restrictions on the use of automated collection practices. Our Company proactively made substantial investments in fiscal 2013 in the expansion of our collections and call center facilities, as well as the latest dialer technology to enable us to better support and manage a more traditional manual collections-oriented process. As a result, we believe we will be very well positioned in the new U.K. operating environment once the FCA promulgates its final guidelines.”

Fiscal 2014 First Quarter Financial Results
For the quarter ended September 30, 2013, the Company recorded revenue of $261.6 million, a decrease of 3.6% on a constant currency basis compared to the prior-year period. Total unsecured consumer lending revenue was $170.2 million, down 2.7% on a constant currency basis over the prior-year period, and includes revenue from internet-based loans of $59.8 million, which decreased 19.7% on a constant currency basis compared to the prior-year period. Secured pawn lending, although unfavorably impacted by lower gold prices, contributed $21.9 million of total revenue, an increase of 10.3% on a constant currency basis compared to the prior-year period.

The consolidated loan loss provision for unsecured loans, expressed as a percentage of gross consumer lending revenue, was 27.8% for the fiscal first quarter compared to 25.7% for the three months ended June 30, 2013. The loan loss provision for the quarter was unfavorably impacted by continued higher loan defaults in the United Kingdom principally resulting from the implementation of the three loan roll-over limitation, in addition to a modification of the Company’s collection practices that place additional limitations on the number and duration of electronic debit attempts to a customer’s account. The Company continues to anticipate that loan losses will be elevated in the near-term because of changes in collection practices that were completed during the quarter, but believes a portion of the loans will be collected manually by in-house collectors, as the Company becomes more efficient at leveraging the significant investments it has made in its global dialer technology, and new and expanded collections and call center facilities. As a percentage of total unsecured loan originations or principal lent, the consolidated unsecured loan loss provision for the quarter ended September 30, 2013 was 6.6%.

Collectively, including a net $0.6 million in non-operating and unusual charges for the three months ended September 30, 2013, and $13.2 million of net non-operating and unusual charges for the three months ended September 30, 2012, income before income taxes on a GAAP basis was $10.0 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2013 compared to income before income taxes of $17.4 million for the prior-year period, resulting in a net loss of $0.7 million for the quarter compared to net income of $8.6 million for the prior-year period. Diluted earnings per share on a GAAP basis was a loss of $0.02 for the fiscal 2014 first quarter compared to a positive $0.19 per share for the prior-year period.

With respect to the Company’s operating earnings, excluding net non-operating and unusual charges for both periods, pro forma income before income taxes was $10.6 million for the fiscal 2014 first quarter, compared to pro forma income before income taxes of $30.6 million for the prior-year period. Considering a pro forma effective income tax rate from operations of 38.0%, diluted pro forma operating earnings per share was $0.16 for the fiscal 2014 first quarter compared to $0.47 per share for the prior-year period. A table reconciling pro forma income before income taxes and diluted pro forma operating earnings per share to GAAP basis income before income taxes and GAAP basis diluted earnings per share is presented at the back of this news release.

Fiscal Year 2014 Outlook

The Company is maintaining its guidance range for fiscal year 2014 of adjusted EBITDA between $200.0 million and $240.0 million, which continues to take into account the significant fluidity in the regulatory environment in the United Kingdom, potential fluctuations in currency translation rates, and volatility in the worldwide gold market. Considering a pro forma effective income tax rate from operations of 38.0%, the Company is projecting diluted pro forma operating earnings per share, which excludes any non-operating and unusual charges, of between $0.65 and $1.27 for the twelve months ending June 30, 2014.

Company Liquidity

As of September 30, 2013, the Company had drawn $47.8 million against its global revolving credit facility. Furthermore, as of September 30, 2013, the Company had drawn £1.8 million of its £2.5 million credit facilities in the United Kingdom, and had drawn SEK 75.0 million and EUR 2.6 million of its total SEK 115.0 million and EUR 10.8 million credit facilities, respectively, in Scandinavia.

After repurchasing 1.0 million shares of its common stock at an average share price of $13.10 during the three months ended September 30, 2013, the Company had $55.8 million of excess investible cash on its balance sheet at September 30, 2013. As of September 30, 2013, the Company had completed the repurchase of 5.0 million shares under its previous repurchase plan, and is authorized to repurchase approximately 4.5 million additional shares of its common stock under its newly authorized share repurchase plan.

On October 25, 2013, the Company entered into a new five-year $180.0 million global revolving credit facility, with the potential to further expand the credit facility to $230.0 million. Interest payable on borrowings under the new facility will be derived from a pricing grid based on the Company’s total secured leverage ratio, which currently allows borrowings at a weighted average interest rate of approximately 5.0%. The new revolving credit facility is set to mature on October 25, 2018, subject to earlier maturity in the event that the outstanding unsecured notes issued by the Company’s National Money Mart subsidiary are not refinanced by September 14, 2016 or the Company’s outstanding 3.25% convertible notes are not refinancing by January 15, 2017.
