Over the past six months, EZCORP's stock has experienced significant positive momentum. The share price as of April 17, 2026, was $30.54, representing a substantial increase from $15.76 on April 21, 2025. The company has consistently exceeded analyst expectations, delivering four consecutive quarters of double-digit earnings beats. For the second quarter ended March 31, 2026, EZCORP reported record operating results, with total revenues rising 46% to $446.9 million and net income attributable to EZCORP nearly doubling by 93% to $49.1 million. Diluted EPS climbed 85% to $0.61, significantly beating consensus estimates. This strong performance was driven by higher pawn loan demand, robust jewelry scrap activity, and the strategic acquisitions of Simple Management Group (SMG) and El Bufalo Pawn stores. Analysts have responded positively, with some raising price targets for EZPW. The company also initiated a new $50 million Class A share repurchase program.
