Each filer's latest fiscal year as stored by the nightly crawl; fiscal year ends differ across the universe. A metric ranks only filers for which it is computable from filed facts. Ties split; a rank reads "better than N% of filers" in the metric's own direction. Descriptive and educational, not a rating.

Per fiscal year from filed facts: cash conversion = operating cash flow / net income (net income > 0); cash-flow accrual ratio = (net income - operating cash flow) / average total assets; balance-sheet accrual ratio = change in net operating assets / average net operating assets, NOA = (assets - cash) - (liabilities - debt). Descriptive; a missing input yields a missing ratio. High accrual ratios and cash conversion well below one are the measures the accruals literature associates with less persistent earnings; they are screens to read the cash-flow statement with, not conclusions. The per-year series is part of Pro risk analysis.

Stock-Based Compensation We maintain long-term incentive plans for the benefit of certain employees and directors. Our current and former plans consist of the 2021 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the 2021 Plan), the 2016 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the 2016 Plan), the 2006 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the 2006 Plan), and the 2006 Equity Incentive Plan (the Equity Incentive Plan), which are collectively referred to as the Plans. All Plans prior to the 2021 Plan were previously expired upon approval of the superseding Plan, and any shares available for grant under the respective plans were canceled at the time of expiration. On June 8, 2021, at the 2021 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, the stockholders approved the 2021 Plan. The 2021 Plan authorizes the issuance of a total of 5,000,000 shares of common stock. Any shares of common stock granted in connection with 2021 Plan awards will be counted against this limit as one share. No shares of common stock will be deemed to have been issued if (1) such shares covered by the unexercised portion of an option that terminates, expires, or is cancelled or settled in cash or (2) such shares are forfeited or subject to awards that are forfeited, canceled, terminated or settled in cash. In any calendar year, (1) no employee will be granted options and/or stock appreciation rights for more than 800,000 shares of common stock; (2) no employee will be granted performance-based equity awards under the 2021 Plan (other than options and stock appreciation

Fair value · 1,413 characters as filed

Fair Value We follow a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which classifies the inputs used in measuring fair values, in determining the fair value of our non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities, which consist primarily of goodwill. These tiers include: Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets; Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable; and Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions. Our financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, receivables, payables, borrowings against our ABL Credit Facility and Term Loan Facility, and outstanding Notes. The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, receivables and payables approximates fair value at December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, because of the short maturities of these instruments. In addition, the interest rates on our Term Loan Facility and ABL Credit Facility are variable and, therefore, we believe the carrying value of outstanding borrowings approximates their fair value. The fair value of our Notes is based on Level 1 inputs and was as follows at December 31, 2025: December 31, 2025 (in thousands) Carrying Value Fair Value Difference Senior notes $ 450,000 $ 443,070 $ (6,930)

Goodwill and intangibles · 2,055 characters as filed

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets Goodwill In the fourth quarter of 2025, we completed a qualitative assessment for impairment of goodwill as of October 1, 2025, concluding it was not more likely than not that the carrying value of the net assets of our reporting units exceeded their respective fair values. Therefore, no impairment of goodwill existed as of December 31, 2025. At both December 31, 2025 and 2024, the amount of goodwill attributable to the Acima segment was approximately $288.3 million. At December 31, 2025 and 2024, the amount of goodwill attributable to the Rent-A-Center segment was approximately $3.0 million and $1.9 million, respectively. At December 31, 2025, the amount of goodwill attributable to the Brigit segment was approximately $196.9 million.

Leases · 4,535 characters as filed

Leases We lease space for all of our Rent-A-Center and Mexico stores under operating leases expiring at various times through 2036. In addition, we lease space for certain support facilities under operating leases expiring at various times through 2032. Most of our store leases are five -year leases and contain renewal options for additional periods ranging from three years to five years at rental rates adjusted according to agreed upon formulas. We evaluate all leases to determine if it is likely that we will exercise future renewal options and in most cases we are not reasonably certain of exercise due to competing market rental rates and lack of significant penalty, or business disruption incurred by not exercising the renewal options. In certain situations involving the sale of a Rent-A-Center corporate store to a franchisee, we enter into a lease assignment agreement with the buyer, but we remain the primary obligor under the original lease for the remaining active term. These assignments are therefore classified as subleases and the original lease is included in our operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. We lease vehicles for all of our Rent-A-Center stores under operating leases with lease terms expiring twelve months after the start date of the lease. We classify these leases as short-term and have elected the short-term lease exemption for our vehicle leases, and have therefore excluded them from our op

However, in light of the uncertainties involved in such matters, including the fact that some pending legal proceedings are at preliminary stages or seek an indeterminate amount of damages, penalties, fines or other relief, it is possible that the outcome of one or more legal proceedings could have a material adverse impact on our results of operations. We regularly monitor developments related to our legal proceedings and governmental inquiries and investigations, determine whether a reserve is appropriate if the loss is both probable and reasonably estimable, and r

Share-based compensation · 3,898 characters as filed

"Note 10 - Common Stock and Stock-Based Compensation Stock Repurchase Program In early December 2021, our Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase program for up to $ 500 million (the December 2021 Program), which superseded our previous stock repurchase program. Under the December 2021 Program, we may purchase shares of our common stock from time to time in the open market or privately negotiated transactions. We are not obligated to acquire any shares under the program, and the program may be suspended or discontinued at any time. There were no repurchases of our common stock during the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 . Approximately $ 235.0 million remains available for repurchases under the current authorization at June 30, 2026. Stock-Based Compensation We recognized $ 5.3 million and $ 5.0 million in compensation expense related to stock awards issued under the Upbound Group, Inc. 2026 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the ""2026 Plan""), Amended 2021 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the 2021 Plan) and 2016 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the 2016 Plan) during the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 , respectively, and $ 12.2 million and $ 12.6 million during the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

Fair value · 1,412 characters as filed

Note 7 - Fair Value We follow a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which classifies the inputs used in measuring fair values, in determining the fair value of our non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities, which consist primarily of goodwill. These tiers include: Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets; Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable; and Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions. Our financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, receivables, payables, borrowings against our ABL Credit Facility and Term Loan Facility, and outstanding Notes. The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, receivables and payables approximates fair value at June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, because of the short maturities of these instruments. In addition, the interest rates on our Term Loan Facility and ABL Credit Facility are variable and, therefore, we believe the carrying value of outstanding borrowings approximates their fair value. The fair value of our Notes is based on Level 1 inputs and was as follows at June 30, 2026: June 30, 2026 (in thousands) Carrying Value Fair Value Difference Senior notes $ 450,000 $ 445,770 $ ( 4,230 )

Newly Adopted Accounting Pronouncements In July 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-05, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326), which amends the existing standard that refers to estimating expected credit losses on current accounts receivable and current contract assets arising from transactions under Topic 606. Under the new standard, public business entities may elect a practical expedient that assumes the current conditions as of the balance sheet date do not change for the remaining life of the asset when estimating expected credit losses. We adopted ASU 2025-05 effective January 1, 2026 on a prospective basis. The adoption did not have a material impact on our financial statements.
