FirstCash Holdings, Inc. increased its quarterly cash dividend 10% to $0.46 per share, setting a higher payout as the pawn-store operator posted year-over-year gains in third-quarter revenue and earnings.

The fourth-quarter dividend is payable Nov. 24, 2026, to shareholders of record Nov. 13. The new quarterly rate annualizes to $1.84 per share, compared with $1.68 at the previous rate of $0.42.

For the three months ended Sept. 30, revenue rose 18% from a year earlier to $1.101 billion. Net income increased 22% to $101.2 million, and diluted earnings per share advanced 25% to $2.33.

Revenue and segment income from FirstCash’s pawn businesses each grew 28% year over year. The company repurchased $123 million of stock during the quarter and $250 million in the year to date.

The company has more than 3,300 pawnshops across the U.S., Latin America and the U.K. Pawn operations account for about 90% of its net revenue. CEO Rick Wessel said, “Shareholder returns remain a priority.”
