Accounting Policies [Abstract]  
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements (“Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements”) have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements.
These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2022, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on November 16, 2022 (“2022 Annual Report”).
In the opinion of management, the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair presentation. Financial results for the three-month period ended December 31, 2022, are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2023 or any other period due, in part, to seasonal variations. There have been no changes that have had a material impact in significant accounting policies as described in our 2022 Annual Report.
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of EZCORP, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. We use the equity method of accounting for entities in which we have a 50% or less investment and exercise significant influence. We account for equity investments for which we do not have significant influence and without readily determinable fair values at cost with adjustments for observable changes in price in orderly transactions for identical or similar investments of the same issuer or impairments. All inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates and Assumptions Use of Estimates and Assumptions The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Such estimates and assumptions include the determination of inventory reserves, expected credit losses, useful lives of long-lived and intangible assets, valuation of share-based compensation, valuation of equity investments, valuation of deferred tax assets and liabilities, loss contingencies related to litigation and discount rates used for operating leases. We base our estimates on historical experience, observable trends and various other assumptions we believe are reasonable. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Recently Issued Accounting PronouncementsWe reviewed all recently issued accounting pronouncements and concluded that they were either not applicable or not expected to have a material impact on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
