Income Taxes

The effective tax rate was 24.9% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to 76.1% for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The reduction in the effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was primarily attributable to a lower tax impact of stock compensation expense related to stock consideration issued to the former owners of Acima Holdings in the form of restricted stock awards, compared to the prior year period. Please reference Note 9 for additional information regarding the recognition of these restricted stock awards in our condensed consolidated financial statements. For tax purposes, restricted stock awards subject to restricted stock agreements issued to the former owners of Acima Holdings were recorded as goodwill and are amortized over a period of 15 years from the date of acquisition.
