16% GMV and 12% Revenue Growth at Acima; Nearly 40% Revenue Growth at Brigit Achieves Q2 2025 Guidance Targets; Raises Midpoint of FY 2025 Non-GAAP Diluted EPS Target Total Revenue CEO Commentary “I am very pleased with our second quarter results, which reflect the heightened relevance of our financial solutions to a large and growing segment of consumers who are underserved by traditional providers. Our Acima segment delivered 16% GMV growth, representing its seventh consecutive quarter of GMV growth, while Brigit grew its subscriber base by over 24%,” said CEO Fahmi Karam. “As our customers’ and merchants’ needs evolve, our business adapts to meet those needs.

Through regular and recurring interactions with our customers, we are capturing and leveraging millions of datapoints that will guide our future customer interactions, product roadmap and overall strategy,” concluded Mr. Karam. Upbound Group, Inc. Earnings Release July 31, 2025 Second Quarter 2025 Results & Key Metrics Second Quarter Consolidated Results • Consolidated revenues of $1,157.5 million increased 7.5% year- over-year, driven by the acquisition of Brigit in addition to both higher rentals and fees revenue and higher merchandise sales revenue. • GAAP operating profit of $50.7 million, including $65.5 million of pre- tax costs relating to special items described below, compared to $80.7 million of GAAP operating profit, including $24.9 million of pre- tax costs relating to special items, in the prior year period.

Full Year 2025 Financial Outlook The Company is tightening the midpoint of its previous FY 2025 guidance for Adjusted EBITDA and raising the midpoint of its guidance for Non-GAAP Diluted Earnings Per Share, which was provided during our Q1 earnings call on May 1, 2025. The Company is also providing guidance for Q3 2025. Due to the inherent uncertainty related to the special items identified in the tables below, management does not believe it is able to provide a meaningful forecast of the comparable GAAP measures or reconciliation to any forecasted GAAP measure without unreasonable effort. The actual amount of these items during 2025 may have a significant impact on our future GAAP results. Conference Call and Webcast Information Upbound Group, Inc. will host a conference call to discuss second quarter results, guidance and other operational matters on the morning of Thursday, July 31, 2025, at 9:00 a.m. ET. For a live webcast of the call, visit https://investor.upbound.com. Certain financial and other statistical information that will be discussed during the conference call will also be provided on the same website. 1. Consolidated includes Acima, Rent-A-Center, Brigit (for the 11 months following the acquisition on January 31, 2025), Mexico, and Corporate Segments. 2. Non-GAAP financial measure. See descriptions below in this release. CEO Commentary “Our second quarter performance delivered strong results that finished above the midpoint of guidance we provided on our last call, and featured consolidated revenue up 7.5%, Adjusted EBITDA up 7% and non- GAAP diluted EPS up 7.7%. These results are a testament to Upbound’s dedicated team and the resilient business model that thrives across economic cycles,” noted CEO Fahmi Karam. “Acima’s growth algorithm continues to deliver sustainable, double-digit GMV growth, and Brigit’s growth curve is powered by its marketing and product innovation efforts. We expect Rent-A-Center’s new ecommerce initiatives to deliver better conversion rates and ultimately lease portfolio growth, built on a foundation of disciplined underwriting. Across the second half of 2025, we will support our customers with their shopping and liquidity needs, while concurrently helping our merchants grow their businesses, which we believe will enable Upbound to achieve our guidance for the year while positioning us for a strong start in 2026,” concluded Mr. Karam. 3 Table 1 Current Guidance Previous Guidance (Provided 7/31/2025) (Provided 5/1/2025) Consolidated Guidance1 FY 2025 FY 2025 Revenues ($B) $4.60 - $4.75 $4.60 - $4.75 Adj.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures This release and the Company's related conference call contain certain financial information determined by methods other than in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), including (1) Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share (net earnings or loss, as adjusted for special items (as defined below), net of taxes, divided by the number of shares of our common stock on a fully diluted basis), (2) Adjusted EBITDA (net earnings before interest, taxes, stock-based compensation, depreciation and amortization, as adjusted for special items) on a consolidated and segment basis, (3) Adjusted EBITDA margin (Adjusted EBITDA divided by total revenue) on a consolidated and segment basis, and (4) Free Cash Flow (net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures). “Special items” refers to certain gains and charges we view as extraordinary, unusual or non-recurring in nature or which we believe do not reflect our core business activities. Special items are reported as Other Gains and Charges in our Consolidated Statements of Operations. For the periods presented herein, these special items are described in the quantitative reconciliation tables included below in this release. Because of the inherent uncertainty related to these special items, management does not believe it is able to provide a meaningful forecast of the comparable GAAP measures or reconciliation to any forecasted GAAP measure without unreasonable effort. These non-GAAP measures are additional tools intended to assist our management in comparing our performance on a more consistent basis for purposes of business decision-making by removing the impact of certain items management believes do not directly reflect our core operations. These measures are intended to assist management in evaluating operating performance and liquidity, comparing performance and liquidity across periods, planning and forecasting future business operations, helping determine levels of operating and capital investments and identifying and assessing additional trends potentially impacting our Company that may not be shown solely by comparisons of GAAP measures. Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA is also used as part of our incentive compensation program for our executive officers and others. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures also provide supplemental information that is useful to investors, analysts and other external users of our consolidated financial statements in understanding our financial results and evaluating our performance and liquidity from period to period. However, non-GAAP financial measures have inherent limitations and are not substitutes for, or superior to, GAAP financial measures, and they should be read together with our consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. Further, because non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized, it may not be possible to compare such measures to the non-GAAP financial measures presented by other companies, even if they have the same or similar names. 10
