OUTERWALL INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited)

Note 1: Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

The unaudited consolidated financial information included herein has been prepared by Outerwall Inc., pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The unaudited consolidated financial statements of Outerwall Inc. included herein reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary to present fairly our consolidated financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods presented. The financial information as of December 31, 2014, is derived from our 2014 Annual Report on Form 10-K and our Form 8-K filed on May 8, 2015. The consolidated financial statements included within this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in our 2014 Annual Report on Form 10-K and in our Form 8-K filed on May 8, 2015.

The results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Outerwall Inc. and our wholly owned subsidiaries. Investments in companies of which we may have significant influence, but not a controlling interest, are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Reclassifications

To be consistent with our 2015 reporting, the following have been retrospectively reported in our Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss) for all periods presented with no effect on net income, cash flows or stockholder's equity:

• Results of our Redbox Canada operations which were discontinued during the first quarter of 2015. See Note 12: Discontinued Operations for additional information;

• Restructuring and lease termination costs. See Note 11: Restructuring for additional information; and

• Basic and diluted earnings per share as a result of applying the two-class method of calculating earnings per share (the “Two-Class Method”). During the first quarter of 2015, the Two-Class Method became significantly more dilutive than the previously applied treasury stock method as a result of stock repurchases increasing the average number of unvested restricted awards (“participating securities”) as a percentage of total common shares outstanding. The impact of applying the Two-Class Method on both income from continuing operations and basic and diluted weighted average shares used to calculate earnings per common share is as follows:

	As Reported Under the Treasury Stock Method				Amount Allocated to Participating Securities						As Revised Under the Two-Class Method
	Three Months Ended		Six Months Ended		Three Months Ended			Six Months Ended			Three Months Ended		Six Months Ended

We adopted the provisions of ASU 2014-08 during the first quarter of 2015 and applied the guidance to our disposition of our Redbox operations in Canada (“Redbox Canada”). See Note 12: Discontinued Operations for additional information.

Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

There have been no developments to recently issued accounting standards, including the expected dates of adoption and estimated effects on our consolidated financial statements, from those disclosed in our 2014 Annual Report on Form 10-K, except for the following:

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). ASU 2014-09 requires revenue recognition to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 sets forth a new revenue recognition model that requires identifying the contract, identifying the performance obligations, determining the transaction price, allocating the transaction price to performance obligations and recognizing the revenue upon satisfaction of performance obligations. In July 2015, the FASB deferred the effective date for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted to the original effective date of December 15, 2016. The amendments may be applied retrospectively to each prior period presented or retrospectively with the cumulative effect recognized as of the date of initial application. We are currently in the process of evaluating the impact of ASU 2014-09.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs (Subtopic 835-30). This ASU requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, instead of as a deferred charge. We are currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2015-03, which is effective for us in our fiscal year beginning January 1, 2016. Early adoption is permitted.

Note 2: Organization and Business

Description of Business

We are a leading provider of automated retail solutions offering convenient products and services that benefit consumers and drive incremental retail traffic and revenue for retailers. During the first quarter of 2015:

• To align with a change in how our chief operating decision maker evaluates business performance, we added ecoATM, our electronic device recycling business, as a separate reportable segment. Previously, the results of ecoATM along with those of other self-service concepts were included in our New Ventures segment. The combined results of the other self-service concepts, which include our product sampling kiosk concept SAMPLEit, are included in the All Other reporting category as they do not meet quantitative thresholds to be reported as a separate segment. See Note 14: Business Segments and Enterprise-Wide Information for additional information; and

• We discontinued our Redbox operations in Canada as the business was not meeting our performance expectations. We have reclassified the results of Redbox Canada to discontinued operations for all periods presented in our Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss). See Note 12: Discontinued Operations for additional information.

10

Our core offerings in automated retail include our Redbox, Coinstar and ecoATM segments. Our Redbox segment consists of self-service kiosks where consumers can rent or purchase movies and video games. Our Coinstar segment consists of self-service coin-counting kiosks where consumers can convert their coins to cash or stored value products. We also offer self-service kiosks that exchange gift cards for cash under our Coinstar™ Exchange brand. Our ecoATM segment consists of self-service kiosks where consumers can recycle electronic devices for cash. In addition to our three reportable segments, we also conduct business activities through other self-service concepts, where we identify, evaluate, build or acquire and develop innovative new self-service retail concepts and regularly assess these concepts to determine whether continued funding or other alternatives are appropriate.

Our kiosks are located primarily in supermarkets, drug stores, mass merchants, convenience stores, financial institutions, malls and restaurants. Our kiosk and location counts as of June 30, 2015, are as follows:

	Kiosks	Locations
Redbox	41,340	33,840
Coinstar	21,140	19,950
ecoATM	2,260	2,020
All Other	90	90
Total	64,830	55,900

Note 3: Cash and Cash Equivalents

We consider all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Our cash and cash equivalents were $237.7 million and $242.7 million at June 30, 2015, and December 31, 2014, respectively. Of this total, cash equivalents were $22.0 million and $0.9 million, respectively, and consisted of money market demand accounts and investment grade fixed income securities such as money market funds, certificate of deposits, and commercial paper. Our cash balances with financial institutions may exceed the deposit insurance limits.

Included in our cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 2015, and December 31, 2014, were $81.2 million and $81.7 million, respectively that we identified for settling our accrued payables to our retailer partners in relation to our Coinstar kiosks.

Separately included in our cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 2015, and December 31, 2014, were $62.6 million and $66.5 million, respectively in cash and cash equivalents held in financial institutions domestically and $13.3 million and $11.6 million, respectively in cash and cash equivalents held in foreign financial institutions.

Note 6: Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

Goodwill

We assess goodwill for potential impairment at the reporting unit level on an annual basis as of November 30, or whenever an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount. During the three months ended June 30, 2015, it became evident that revenue and profitability trends in our ecoATM reporting unit were not being achieved as expected. For example collection rates, revenue and profitability on a per kiosk basis experienced declines versus prior periods and expected seasonal trends. As a result, we revised our internal expectations for future revenue growth and profitability lower than our previous estimates. This is primarily driven by certain challenges in an increasingly competitive industry which impact the per kiosk device collection, revenue and profitability expectations and the timing and installation of kiosks. Further, while these competitive challenges grew more acute during the second quarter, we also experienced the loss of a key executive at ecoATM. This led to an indication in the second quarter of 2015 that ecoATM’s fair value was more likely than not below its carrying value.

12

As a result, we performed the first step of the goodwill impairment test with the assistance of a third-party valuation specialist. The first step of the impairment test was completed by comparing the carrying value of ecoATM, including goodwill, to its fair value determined using a weighted combination of a discounted cash flow (“DCF”) income based approach and a guideline public company market based approach. The DCF methodology requires significant judgment in selecting appropriate inputs including the risk adjusted market cost of capital for the discount rate, the terminal growth rate and projections of future cash flows, all of which are inherently uncertain. The guideline public company method involves significant judgment in selecting the appropriate inputs including the peer company group, the selection of relevant multiples and the determination of a reasonable control premium. Due to these significant judgments, the fair value determined in connection with the goodwill impairment test may not necessarily be indicative of the actual value that would be recognized in a future transaction. Completion of the first step of the impairment test determined that the carrying amount of ecoATM exceeded its fair value and that the second step of the impairment test needed to be performed.

Under the second step of the impairment test, we completed the process of estimating the fair value of ecoATM’s assets and liabilities, including intangible assets consisting of developed technology, trade name and covenants not to compete for the purpose of deriving an estimate of the implied fair value of goodwill. The estimate of the implied fair value of goodwill was then compared to the recorded goodwill to determine the amount of the impairment. Significant assumptions used in measuring the value of these assets and liabilities included the discount rates and obsolescence rates used in valuing the intangible assets, and replacement costs for valuing the tangible assets. The inputs and assumptions used in our goodwill impairment test are classified as Level 3 inputs within the fair value hierarchy.

Based on the result of the second step of the goodwill impairment analysis, we recognized a non-cash, non-tax deductible charge for goodwill impairment of $85.9 million related to our ecoATM business segment.

As a result of the impairment recorded, the estimated fair value of the ecoATM reporting unit equals its carrying value. The estimate of ecoATM's fair value includes key assumptions with inherent uncertainty which may change in future periods and have a negative effect on the fair value resulting in potential future impairments, the most significant of which is our estimate of future cash flows predicated on estimated kiosks, revenue and profitability measures.

Gross amount of goodwill and accumulated impairment charges that we have recorded are as follows:

Senior Unsecured Notes Due 2019

On March 12, 2013, we and certain subsidiaries of ours, as subsidiary guarantors, entered into an indenture pursuant to which we issued $350.0 million principal amount of 6.000% Senior Notes due 2019 (the “Senior Notes due 2019”) at par for proceeds, net of expenses, of $343.8 million. The expenses were allocated between debt discount and deferred financing fees based on their nature. As of June 30, 2015, we were in compliance with the covenants of the related indenture.

16

Senior Unsecured Notes Due 2021

On June 9, 2014, we and certain subsidiaries of ours, as subsidiary guarantors, entered into an indenture pursuant to which we issued $300.0 million principal amount of 5.875% Senior Notes due 2021 (the “Senior Notes due 2021”) at par for proceeds, net of expenses, of $294.0 million. The expenses were allocated between debt discount and deferred financing fees based on their nature.

During the second quarter of 2015, we registered the Senior Notes due 2021 and related guarantees under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) to allow holders to exchange the notes and related guarantees for the same principal amount of a new issue and related guarantees (collectively, the “Exchange Notes”) with substantially identical terms, except that the Exchange Notes are generally freely transferable under the Securities Act. The full principal amount of the Senior Notes due 2021 was exchanged for the Exchange Notes.

As of June 30, 2015, we were in compliance with the covenants of the related indenture.

Revolving Line of Credit and Term Loan

On June 24, 2014, we entered into the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Amended and Restated Credit Agreement”) providing for a senior secured credit facility (the “Credit Facility”). The Amended and Restated Credit Agreement amended and restated in its entirety the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of November 20, 2007 and amended and restated as of April 29, 2009 and as of July 15, 2011 and all amendments and restatements thereto.

The New Credit Facility consists of (a) a $150.0 million amortizing term loan (the “Term Loan”) and (b) a $600.0 million revolving line of credit (the “Revolving Line”), which includes (i) a $75.0 million sublimit for the issuance of letters of credit, (ii) a $50.0 million sublimit for swingline loans and (iii) a $75.0 million sublimit for loans in certain foreign currencies available to us and certain wholly owned Company foreign subsidiaries (the “Foreign Borrowers”). We may, subject to applicable conditions and subject to obtaining commitments from lenders, request an increase in the Revolving Line of up to $200.0 million in aggregate (the “Accordion”). As of June 30, 2015, the interest rate on amounts outstanding under the Credit Facility was 1.94% and we were in compliance with the covenants of the Credit Facility.

The Amended and Restated Credit Agreement requires principal amortization payments under the Term Loan as follows:

Dollars in thousands	Repayment Amount
Remainder of 2015	$	5,625
2016	13,125

Restricted stock and performance based restricted stock awards

Restricted stock awards are granted to eligible executives, non-employee directors and employees. Awards granted to employees and executives vest annually in equal installments over four years. Non-employee director awards vest one year after the grant date. Performance-based restricted stock awards are granted to executives only, with established performance criteria approved by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. The fair value of non-performance-based awards is based on the market price on the grant date. We estimate forfeitures for restricted stock awards and recognize share-based compensation expense for only those awards expected to vest.

Awards of performance-based restricted stock made prior to 2013, once earned, vest in equal installments over three years from the date of grant. Awards of performance-based restricted stock made in and subsequent to 2013, once earned, vest in two installments over three years from the date of grant (65% of the award vests two years from the date of grant and the remaining 35% of the award vests three years from the date of grant). The restricted shares require no payment from the grantee. The fair value of performance-based awards is based on achieving specific performance conditions and is recognized over the vesting period.

The following table presents a summary of restricted stock award activity for 2015:

Shares in thousands	Restricted Stock Awards		Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value

Share-Based Payments for Content Arrangements

We have granted restricted stock as part of content license agreements with certain movie studios. The expense related to these agreements is included within direct operating expenses in our Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss) and is adjusted based on the number of unvested shares and market price of our common stock each reporting period. During the first quarter of 2015, 50,000 shares of restricted stock were granted and immediately vested pursuant to a revenue sharing agreement with Paramount.

Information related to the shares of restricted stock granted as part of these agreements as of June 30, 2015, is as follows:

Whole shares	Granted	Vested	Unvested
Paramount(1)	350,000	350,000	—

(1) Includes 95,000 shares that vested on January 1, 2015.

Rights to Receive Cash

As a part of the acquisition of ecoATM, we issued replacement awards for unvested restricted stock and options in ecoATM with rights to receive cash equal to the per share merger consideration for restricted stock and net of the exercise price for options. The replacement awards vest in accordance with the terms of the original replaced award. The replacement awards are considered liability classified as they represent rights to receive cash. Expense associated with the post-combination awards is recognized net of forfeitures, and cash payments are made in accordance with the awards' vesting schedule, generally on a monthly basis. We recognized $2.9 million in expense associated with the issuance of rights to receive cash for the six months endedJune 30, 2015. The expected future recognition of expense associated with the rights to receive cash as of June 30, 2015 is as follows:

Note 11: Restructuring

During the first quarter of 2015, we recorded restructuring charges arising from the following activities:

• Discontinuing our Redbox operations in Canada. The disposal was completed on March 31, 2015. See Note 12: Discontinued Operations for further information;

• Reducing the size of our Redbox headquarters facility in Oakbrook Terrace, Illinois through early termination of operating leases for certain floors. We ceased using the office space on March 31, 2015 and the effective date of the early termination is July 31, 2016. Prior to exercising our early termination option, the leases had been scheduled to expire in July 2021; and

• Implementing actions to further align costs with revenues in our continuing operations primarily through workforce reductions across the Company and subleasing a floor of a corporate facility.

There were no significant restructuring charges in the second quarter of 2015 or 2014. The total amount incurred for restructuring, exclusive of asset impairments incurred by reportable segment (on an allocated basis) and expense type is as follows:

Note 12: Discontinued Operations

Summary Financial Information

On January 23, 2015, we made the decision to shut down our Redbox Canada operations as the business was not meeting the company's performance expectations. This represents a strategic shift which has a major effect on our operations as it represents a significant geographical area for our Redbox segment and the losses generated were significant to our total operations. On March 31, 2015, we completed the disposal of the Redbox Canada operations. As a result, we updated certain estimates used in the preparation of the financial statements and the remaining value of the content library and certain capitalized property and equipment consisting primarily of installation costs were amortized over the wind-down period ending March 31, 2015. We have reclassified the results of Redbox Canada to discontinued operations for all periods presented in our Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss).

In addition to Redbox Canada, discontinued operations for the six months ended June 30, 2014 included a $1.3 million pretax loss from operations and a $0.5 million income tax benefit related to the wind-down process of certain new ventures that were discontinued during 2013. Continuing cash flows from the wind-down process were not material. Total loss on discontinued operations is as follows:

Note 13: Earnings Per Share

Beginning in the first quarter of 2015, we began applying the two-class method of calculating basic and diluted earnings per share (the “Two-Class Method”) as it became significantly more dilutive than the previously applied treasury stock method as a result of stock repurchases increasing the average number of unvested restricted awards as a percentage of total common shares outstanding.

The Two-Class Method is an earnings allocation formula that treats a participating security, as having rights to earnings that otherwise would have been available to common shareholders and assumes all earnings for the period are distributed. Our unvested restricted stock awards granted are participating securities as they entitle recipients to receive nonforfeitable dividends during the vesting period on a basis equivalent to the dividends paid to holders of common stock. Due to our net loss position for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2015, losses are not allocated to participating shares for the purpose of calculating basic and diluted EPS as restricted stock holders are not required to fund losses.

Basic and diluted weighted average shares were the same for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2015, as the effects of potentially dilutive securities were antidilutive due to our net loss position. Our calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share is as follows:

Note 14: Business Segments and Enterprise-Wide Information

Management, including our chief operating decision maker, who is our CEO, evaluates the performances of our business segments primarily on segment revenue and segment operating income (loss) before depreciation, amortization and other, and share-based compensation granted to executives, non-employee directors and employees (“segment operating income (loss)”). Segment operating income (loss) contains internally allocated costs of our shared service support functions, including but not limited to, corporate executive management, business development, sales, finance, legal, human resources, information technology and risk management. We also review depreciation and amortization allocated to each segment. Share-based payments expense related to share-based compensation granted to executives, non-employee directors and employees and expense related to the rights to receive cash issued in connection with our acquisition of ecoATM are not allocated to our segments and are included in the Corporate Unallocated column in the analysis and reconciliation below; however, share-based payments expense related to our content arrangements with certain movie studios has been allocated to our Redbox segment and is included within direct operating expenses. Our performance evaluation does not include segment assets.

Changes in our Organizational Structure

During the first quarter of 2015, we added ecoATM, our electronic device recycling business, as a separate reportable segment. Previously, the results of ecoATM along with those of other self-service concepts were included in our New Ventures segment. The combined results of the other self-service concepts, which include product sampling kiosk concept SAMPLEit, are now included in the All Other reporting category in the reconciliation below as they do not meet quantitative thresholds to be reported as a separate segment. All goodwill previously allocated to the New Ventures segment has been allocated to the ecoATM segment. See Note 6: Goodwill and Other Intangible Assetsfor further information.

Comparability of Segment Results

We have recast prior period results for the following:

• Discontinued operations, consisting of our Redbox operations in Canada which we shut down during the first quarter of 2015. See Note 12: Discontinued Operationsfor further information; and

• The addition of our ecoATM segment and an All Other reporting category, which we added during the first quarter of 2015.

Our analysis and reconciliation of our segment information to the consolidated financial statements that follows covers our results of operations, which consists of our Redbox, Coinstar and ecoATM segments, Corporate Unallocated expenses and All Other. All Other includes the results of other self-service concepts, which we regularly assess to determine whether continued funding or other alternatives are appropriate.

Note 15: Fair Value

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. To measure fair value, we use a three-tier valuation hierarchy based upon observable and non-observable inputs:

• Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

• Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; these include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; or

• Level 3: Unobservable inputs that reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions.

The factors or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

Assets and Liabilities Measured and Reported at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

The following table presents our financial assets and (liabilities) that are measured and reported at fair value in our Consolidated Balance Sheets on a recurring basis, by level within the fair value hierarchy (in thousands):

Fair Value at June 30, 2015	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3
Money market demand accounts and investment grade fixed income securities	$	22,012	$	—	$	—
Fair Value at December 31, 2014	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3
Money market demand accounts and investment grade fixed income securities	$	916	$	—	$	—

Money Market Demand Accounts and Investment Grade Fixed Income Securities

We determine fair value for our money market demand accounts and investment grade fixed income securities based on quoted market prices. The fair value of these assets is included in cash and cash equivalents on our Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Assets and Liabilities Measured and Reported at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis

We recognize or disclose the fair value of certain assets such as non-financial assets, primarily long-lived assets, goodwill, intangible assets and certain other assets in connection with impairment evaluations. All of our nonrecurring valuations use significant unobservable inputs and therefore fall under Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

For more information regarding the goodwill impairment charge recognized in the three months ended June 30, 2015, and the related fair value, see Note 6: Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.

Fair Value of Other Financial Instruments

The carrying value of our term loans approximates their fair value and falls under Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

We estimated the fair value of our senior unsecured notes due 2019 and 2021 outstanding using quoted market prices by independent dealers. The estimated fair value of our senior unsecured notes due 2019 and 2021 was approximately $350.0 million and $300.0 million, at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. The fair value estimate of our senior unsecured notes falls under Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Note 16: Commitments and Contingencies

Lease Commitments

Operating Leases

During the first half of 2015, we made the following changes to our operating leases:

• We early terminated our operating lease of certain floors of our Redbox headquarters and recognized the fair value of the ongoing lease payments and other related costs through the effective date of termination, July 31, 2016, as of the cease use date, March 31, 2015. See Note 11: Restructuring for additional information; and

• We entered into a new operating lease of 16,085 square feet of office space in Woodland Hills, California which expires May 31, 2022.

As of June 30, 2015, our future minimum lease payments, net of sublease income are as follows:

Dollars in thousands	Operating Leases(1)
Remaining in 2015	$	8,875
2016	14,624
2017	10,718
2018	6,891
2019	6,123
Thereafter	11,682
Total minimum lease commitments	58,913
Less: sublease income	(1,955		)
Total minimum lease commitments, net	$	56,958

(1) Includes all operating leases having an initial or remaining non-cancelable lease term in excess of one year.

Purchase commitments

Pursuant to the manufacturing and services agreement entered into as part of the NCR Asset Acquisition, Outerwall, Redbox or an affiliate were committed to purchase goods and services from NCR for a period of five years from June 22, 2012. At the end of the five-year period, if the aggregate amount paid in margin to NCR for goods and services delivered was to equal less than $25.0 million, Outerwall was to pay NCR the difference between such aggregate amount and $25.0 million. We made no purchases in the six months ended June 30, 2015. As of June 30, 2015, our remaining commitment is $15.8 million under this arrangement.

We have also entered into other certain miscellaneous purchase agreements in the normal course of business, which resulted in total purchase commitments of $41.9 million as of June 30, 2015.

Content License Agreements

On July 14, 2015, Sony elected to exercise its option to extend our existing content license agreement with them. This will extend the license period through September 30, 2016. See Note 20: Subsequent Eventsfor additional information.

On June 5, 2015, Redbox entered into an amendment to the existing April 22, 2010, agreement with Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment LLC (“Fox”) that maintains a 28-day window on Blu-ray Disc^® and DVD titles through June 30, 2017, and includes a revenue sharing arrangement between Redbox and Fox.

On March 26, 2015, we entered into a revenue sharing agreement with Warner Home Video, a division of Warner Bros. Home Entertainment Inc., (the “Warner Agreement”) under which Redbox agrees to license minimum quantities of theatrical and direct-to-video titles for rental through March 31, 2017. The Warner Agreement maintains a 28-day window on such titles.

We have entered into certain license agreements to obtain content for movie and video game rentals. A summary of the estimated commitments in relation to these agreements as of June 30, 2015, is presented in the following table:

Dollars in thousands			Years Ended December 31,
	Total		Remaining in 2015		2016		2017

(1) Subsequent to quarter end and not included in this table, Sony elected to exercise its option to extend our existing content license agreement with them. This will extend the license period through September 30, 2016. See Note 20: Subsequent Events for additional information.

Letters of Credit

As of June 30, 2015, we had five irrevocable standby letters of credit that totaled $6.4 million. These standby letters of credit, which expire at various times through May 2016, are used to collateralize certain obligations to third parties. As of June 30, 2015, no amounts were outstanding under these standby letter of credit agreements.

Legal Matters

In October 2009, an Illinois resident, Laurie Piechur, individually and on behalf of all others similarly situated, filed a putative class action complaint against our Redbox subsidiary in the Circuit Court for the Twentieth Judicial Circuit, St. Clair County, Illinois. The plaintiff alleged that, among other things, Redbox charges consumers illegal and excessive late fees in violation of the Illinois Consumer Fraud and Deceptive Business Practices Act, and that Redbox's rental terms violate the Illinois Rental Purchase Agreement Act or the Illinois Automatic Contract Renewal Act and the plaintiff is seeking monetary damages and other relief. In November 2009, Redbox removed the case to the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Illinois. In February 2010, the District Court remanded the case to the Circuit Court for the Twentieth Judicial Circuit, St. Clair County, Illinois. In May 2010, the court denied Redbox's motion to dismiss the plaintiff's complaint. In November 2011, the plaintiff moved for class certification, and Redbox moved for summary judgment. The court denied Redbox's motion for summary judgment in February 2012. The plaintiff filed an amended complaint on April 19, 2012, and an amended motion for class certification on June 5, 2012. The court denied Redbox's motion to dismiss the amended complaint. The amended class certification motion was briefed and argued. At the hearing on plaintiff's amended motion for class certification, the plaintiff dismissed all claims but two and is pursuing only her claims under the Illinois Rental Purchase Agreement Act and the Illinois Automatic Contract Renewal Act. On May 21, 2013, the court denied plaintiff's amended class action motion. On January 29, 2014, the Illinois Supreme Court denied plaintiff’s petition for leave to appeal the trial court’s denial of class certification. Redbox has moved to dismiss all remaining claims on mootness grounds, and the Court granted Redbox’s motion on December 11, 2014. The plaintiffs appealed on January 7, 2015. We believe that the claims against us are without merit and intend to defend ourselves vigorously in this matter. Currently, no accrual has been established as it was not possible to estimate the possible loss or range of loss because this matter had not advanced to a stage where we could make any such estimate.

Note 18: Income Taxes From Continuing Operations

Our effective tax rate from continuing operations was (62.4)% and 20.9% for the three months endedJune 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and 113.4% and 29.7% for the six months endedJune 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Our effective tax rate for the three months endedJune 30, 2015, was higher than the U.S. Federal statutory rate of 35.0% primarily due to an $85.9 million non-tax deductible goodwill impairment charge that was recorded in the second quarter of 2015 and state income taxes, partially offset by the domestic production activities deduction and a net decrease in valuation allowances related to capital loss carryforwards and state tax credit carryforwards.

Our effective tax rate for the three months endedJune 30, 2014, was lower than the U.S. Federal statutory rate of 35.0% primarily due to a worthless stock deduction and the domestic production activities deduction, partially offset by state income taxes.

Our effective tax rate for the six months endedJune 30, 2015, was higher than the U.S. Federal statutory rate of 35.0% primarily due to an $85.9 million non-tax deductible goodwill impairment charge that was recorded in the second quarter of 2015 and state income taxes, partially offset by the domestic production activities deduction.

Our effective tax rate for the six months endedJune 30, 2014, was lower than the U.S. Federal statutory rate of 35.0% primarily due to a worthless stock deduction and the domestic production activities deduction, partially offset by state income taxes.

Note 19: Dividends

On May 5, 2015, the Board declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.30 per share of common stock to shareholders of record at the close of business on June 9, 2015. The dividend was paid on June 23, 2015, and totaled $5.4 million including 0.1 million paid to recipients of unvested restricted stock awards, which participate in earnings on a basis equivalent to the dividends paid to holders of common stock.

On February 3, 2015, the Board declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.30 per share of common stock to shareholders of record at the close of business on March 3, 2015. The dividend was paid on March 18, 2015, and totaled $5.6 million including $0.2 million paid to recipients of unvested restricted stock awards. See Note 13: Earnings Per Share for additional information.

Note 20: Subsequent Events

On July 14, 2015, Sony elected to exercise its option to extend our existing content license agreement with them. This will extend the license period through September 30, 2016, with no further options to renew, and require us to issue 25,000 shares of additional restricted stock to Sony during the fourth quarter of 2015. After accounting for this extension, our total commitment to purchase content from Sony was approximately $157.8 million.

On July 28, 2015, the Board of directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.30 per share expected to be paid on September 15, 2015, to all stockholders of record as of the close of business on August 28, 2015.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Except for the consolidated historical information, the following discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties, such as our objectives, expectations and intentions. Our actual results could differ materially from results that may be anticipated by such forward-looking statements and discussed elsewhere herein. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed below and those discussed under “Risk Factors” in Item 1A of Part II of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in Item 1A of Part I of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014 (our “2014 Form 10-K”). Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this report. We undertake no obligation to revise any forward-looking statements in order to reflect events or circumstances that may subsequently arise. Readers are urged to carefully review and consider the various disclosures made in this report and in our other reports filed with the SEC that attempt to advise interested parties of the risks and factors that may affect our business, prospects and results of operations.

Overview

We are a leading provider of automated retail solutions offering convenient products and services that benefit consumers and drive incremental retail traffic and revenue for retailers. Our automated retail business model leverages technology advancements that allow delivery of new and innovative consumer products in a compact, automated format. We believe this model positions us to address retailers’ increasing need to provide more in less space driven by increased urbanization and consumers’ increasing expectation of instant gratification. Our products and services can be found at approximately 64,830 kiosks in leading supermarkets, drug stores, mass merchants, financial institutions, convenience stores, malls and restaurants. While we are focused on four consumer sectors: Entertainment, Money, Electronics, and Beauty & Consumer Packaged Goods, we also have an investment within the Health sector.

Core Offerings

We have three core businesses:

• Our Redbox business segment (“Redbox”), where consumers can rent or purchase movies and video games from self-service kiosks, is focused on the entertainment consumer sector.

• Our Coinstar business segment (“Coinstar”) is focused on the money consumer sector and provides self-service kiosks where consumers can convert their coins to cash and convert coins and paper bills to stored value products. We also offer self-service kiosks that exchange gift cards for cash under our Coinstar^™ Exchange brand.

• Our ecoATM business segment (“ecoATM”) is focused on the consumer electronics sector and provides self-service kiosks where consumers can recycle certain electronic devices for cash and generates revenue through the sale of devices collected at our kiosks to third parties.

Other Self-Service Concepts

In addition to our three reportable segments, we also conduct business activities through other self-service concepts, where we identify, evaluate, build or acquire and develop innovative new self-service concepts in the automated retail space. Currently, we are exploring in the marketplace our consumer product sampling kiosk concept SAMPLEit, in the Beauty and Consumer Packaged Goods sector. We regularly assess the performance of our concepts to determine whether continued funding or other alternatives are appropriate. The combined results of these concepts are included in the All Other reporting category as they do not meet quantitative thresholds to be reported as a separate segment.

Strategic Investments

On occasion, we make strategic investments in external companies that provide automated self-service kiosk solutions. For example, in the Health sector we have invested in Pursuant Health, Inc., formerly known as SoloHealth, Inc.

See Note 7: Equity Method Investmentsin our Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for more information.

41

Strategy

Our strategy is based upon leveraging our core competencies in the automated retail space to provide the consumer with convenience and value and to help retailers drive incremental traffic and revenue. Our competencies include success in building strong consumer and retailer relationships, and in deploying, scaling and managing kiosk businesses. We build strong retailer relationships by providing retailers with turnkey solutions that complement their businesses without significant outlays of time and financial resources. We believe we have significant opportunities to continue to grow our revenues, profitability and cash flow by capitalizing on our strengths and favorable industry trends through the execution of the following strategies:

• Continue growing our Redbox business profitably. We are focused on profitably growing Redbox through increased revenue generation and improved kiosk-operations efficiency.

We expect to grow revenue by attracting new customers, testing pricing strategies, improving the Blu-ray rental mix, and utilizing our customer management tools. Blu-ray drives revenue growth by shifting rentals to its higher revenue price point, $2.00 per night, and generates higher margin dollars per rental. Further, our customer management tools enable us to provide personalized recommendations and promotions to our customers, which helps us generate incremental revenue.

While we have substantially completed the build out of our Redbox network in the U.S., we believe we can improve financial performance by redeploying underperforming kiosks to lower kiosk density or higher consumer-traffic areas. We also have retrofitted a significant percentage of our existing kiosks to provide increased capacity, which enables Redbox to retain discs in the kiosks longer without a material increase in product cost thereby allowing us to provide greater title selection and copy depth to generate incremental rentals. We also continuously improve our proprietary algorithms allowing Redbox to more accurately predict daily title availability and demand at individual kiosk locations. From a financial perspective, we expect these strategies to help offset the expected secular decline in the physical rental market.

• Optimize and grow revenues from our Coinstar business. As with Redbox, we believe we can improve financial performance in our Coinstar business through kiosk optimization. We continue to focus on finding attractive locations for our kiosks, including through redeployment of underperforming kiosks to lower-kiosk-density or higher-consumer-traffic areas. Further, the Coinstar business continues to develop consumer-oriented products and services, such as Coinstar Exchange, and to expand into other channels, such as financial institutions, where we can leverage our Coinstar platform.

• Scale and grow our ecoATM business to profitability. We are focused on strategically scaling our ecoATM business while also enhancing existing kiosk performance in order to drive the business to profitability. We expect to increase revenue through continued focus on placing new kiosks in attractive locations and driving increased productivity at existing kiosks while also leveraging expenses as a percentage of revenue as the business scales. We plan to increase collections of devices and accelerate the ramp time of new kiosk installations in our mass merchant channel through targeted promotions and ongoing marketing to customers in our key demographic segments.

• Use our expertise to continue to develop our existing businesses and new innovative automated retail solutions.Through Redbox and Coinstar, we have demonstrated our ability to profitably scale automated retail solutions. We also leverage those core competencies to identify, evaluate, build or acquire, and develop new automated retail concepts through both organic and inorganic opportunities. For example, in the third quarter of 2013, we acquired ecoATM, one of our previous strategic investments. Further, we continue to make modest investments to test our product sampling kiosk concept, SAMPLEit. We are committed to addressing the changing needs and preferences of our consumers, including through strategic investments.

Comparability of Results

We have recast prior period results to reflect the following:

• Discontinued operations, consisting of our Redbox operations in Canada (“Redbox Canada”), which we shut down during the first quarter of 2015. See Note 12: Discontinued Operationsin our Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information;

• Added ecoATM, our electronic device recycling business, as a separate reportable segment. Previously, the results of ecoATM along with those of other self-service concepts were included in our New Ventures segment. The combined results of the other self-service concepts, which include our product sampling kiosk concept SAMPLEit, are now included in the All Other reporting category as they do not meet quantitative thresholds to be reported as a separate segment. See Note 14: Business Segments and Enterprise-Wide Information in our Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information; and

• Calculated basic and diluted earnings per share under the two-class method (the “Two-Class Method”). During the first quarter of 2015, the Two-Class Method became significantly more dilutive than the previously applied treasury stock method as a result of stock repurchases increasing the average number of unvested restricted awards as a percentage of total common shares outstanding. See Note 13: Earnings Per Sharein our Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

Recent Events

Subsequent Events

• On July 14, 2015, Sony elected to exercise its option to extend our existing content license agreement with them.

Q1 2015 Events

• On March 31, 2015, we completed the shutdown of the Redbox Canada operations as the business was not meeting performance expectations. The value of the content library and certain capitalized property and equipment consisting primarily of installation costs were amortized over the wind-down period ending on the disposal date of March 31, 2015. See Note 12: Discontinued Operationsin our Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information;

• On March 31, 2015, we reduced the size of our Redbox headquarters facility in Oakbrook Terrace, Illinois through early termination of operating leases for certain floors.

The Warner Agreement maintains a 28-day window on such titles.

• On March 18, 2015, we paid a cash dividend of $0.30 per outstanding share of our common stock totaling approximately $5.6 million; and

• During the three months ended March 31, 2015, we repurchased 617,195 shares of our common stock at an average price of $65.96 per share for $40.7 million.

Comparing three months endedJune 30, 2015 to three months endedJune 30, 2014

Revenue decreased$1.2 million, or 0.2%, primarily due to:

• $3.9 milliondecrease from our Redbox segment primarily due to a 0.6%decrease in same store sales driven by a decline in rentals and the removal of underperforming kiosks, partially offset by price increases for movie content implemented in December 2014. Movie rentals were also impacted by the relative strength of content and the timing of the release slate;

• $2.3 millionincrease from our ecoATM segment primarily due to the increase in number of kiosks installed partially offset by a decrease in the average selling prices of value devices sold; and

• $0.4 millionincrease from our Coinstar segment, primarily due to the increase in number of Coinstar Exchange kiosks installed partially offset by lower volume in U.S. Coinstar kiosks.

Operating income (loss) decreased$69.5 million, or 133.6%, primarily due to:

• $90.9 millionincrease in operating loss within our ecoATM segment, primarily due to the $85.9 million goodwill impairment charge recognized in 2015. Excluding the $85.9 million goodwill impairment charge, operating loss increased $5.0 million for our ecoATM segment primarily due to an increase in direct operating expenses and depreciation associated with the increase in the installed kiosk base; partially offset by

• $18.4 million increase in operating income within our Redbox segment primarily due to:

◦ $15.9 milliondecrease in direct operating expenses driven primarily by lower product costs and rental volume; and

◦ $5.7 milliondecrease in depreciation and amortization primarily from lower kiosk related depreciation; partially offset by

◦ $3.9 million decrease in revenue.

• $3.9 milliondecrease in share based expense not allocated to our segments primarily due to the continued vesting of rights to receive cash we issued as replacement awards for unvested restricted stock as part of our acquisition of ecoATM in the third quarter of 2013; and

• $1.6 millionincrease in operating income within our Coinstar segment primarily due to a $0.4 millionincrease in revenue and lower operating expenses including depreciation and amortization, direct operating and research and development offset by general administrative, restructuring and marketing expenses.

Income (loss) from continuing operations decreased$71.2 million, or 298.7%, primarily due to:

• $69.5 milliondecrease in operating income as described above; and

• $11.9 million increase in income tax expense; partially offset by

• $10.4 million lower losses from equity method investments due to our withdrawal from Redbox Instant by Verizon during the fourth quarter of 2014.

Comparing six months endedJune 30, 2015 to six months endedJune 30, 2014

Revenue increased$9.7 million, or 0.8% primarily due to:

• $6.1 millionincrease from our ecoATM segment primarily due to the increase in number of kiosks installed partially offset by a decrease in the average selling prices of value devices sold;

• $2.6 millionincrease from our Redbox segment primarily due to a 0.5% increase in same store sales driven by the benefit of price increases on the first six months of 2015, substantially offset by a decline in rentals during the first half of 2015 and the removal of underperforming kiosks. Movie rentals were also impacted by the relative strength of content and the timing of the release slate; and

• $1.0 millionincrease from our Coinstar segment, primarily due to the increase in number of Coinstar Exchange kiosks installed partially offset by lower transactions in U.S. Coinstar kiosks.

Operating income decreased$49.6 million, or 43.3%, primarily due to:

• $96.1 millionincrease in operating loss within our ecoATM segment, primarily due to the $85.9 million goodwill impairment charge recognized in 2015. Excluding the $85.9 million goodwill impairment charge, operating loss increased $10.2 million for our ecoATM segment primarily due to an increase in direct operating expenses and depreciation associated with the increase in the installed kiosk base; partially offset by

• $43.3 millionincrease in operating income within our Redbox segment primarily due to:

◦ $36.6 milliondecrease in direct operating expenses driven primarily by lower product costs and rental volume;

◦ $13.5 milliondecrease in depreciation and amortization primarily from lower kiosk related depreciation;

◦ $4.3 milliondecrease in general and administrative expenses driven by ongoing cost reduction initiatives; and

◦ $2.6 million in revenue growth; partially offset by

◦ $14.6 millionincrease in restructuring and lease termination costs related mainly to early lease termination of certain floors at our Redbox headquarters and severance costs.

• $5.9 milliondecrease in share based expense not allocated to our segments primarily due to the continued vesting of rights to receive cash we issued as replacement awards for unvested restricted stock as part of our acquisition of ecoATM in the third quarter of 2013; and

• $2.2 millionincrease in operating income within our Coinstar segment primarily due to a $1.0 millionincrease in revenue and lower operating expenses including depreciation and amortization, direct operating and research and development offset by general administrative, restructuring and marketing expenses.

Income (loss) from continuing operations decreased$56.6 million, or 110.1%, primarily due to:

• $49.6 milliondecrease in operating income as described above;

• $22.3 million increase in income tax expense;

• $2.7 million increase in other expenses primarily related to foreign exchange; and

• $1.7 million increase in interest expense primarily due to a shift in the composition of our debt to higher fixed rate debt, partially offset by lower borrowings; partially offset by

• $19.6 million lower losses from equity method investments due to our withdrawal from Redbox Instant by Verizon during the fourth quarter of 2014.

Share-Based Payments and Rights to Receive Cash

Our share-based payments consist of share-based compensation granted to executives, non-employee directors and employees and share-based payments granted to movie studios as part of content agreements. We grant stock options, restricted stock and performance-based restricted stock to executives and non-employee directors and restricted stock to our employees. In connection with our acquisition of ecoATM, we also granted certain rights to receive cash. The expense associated with the grants to movie studios is allocated to our Redbox segment and included within direct operating expenses. The expenses associated with share-based compensation to our executives, non-employee directors, employees and related to the rights to receive cash issued in connection with our acquisition of ecoATM are part of our shared services support function and are not allocated to our segments. The components of our unallocated share-based compensation expense are presented in the following table.

Segment Results

Our discussion and analysis that follows covers results of operations for our Redbox, Coinstar and ecoATM segments.

We manage our business by evaluating the financial results of our segments, focusing primarily on segment revenue and segment operating income before depreciation, amortization and other and share-based compensation granted to executives, non-employee directors and employees (“segment operating income”). Segment operating income contains internally allocated costs of our shared services support functions, including but not limited to, corporate executive management, business development, sales, customer service, finance, legal, human resources, information technology, and risk management. We also review depreciation and amortization allocated to each segment.

Management utilizes segment revenue and segment operating income to evaluate the health of our business segments and in consideration of allocating resources among our business segments. Specifically, our CEO evaluates segment revenue and segment operating income, and assesses the performance of each business segment based on these measures, as well as, among other things, the prospects of each of the segments and how they fit into our overall strategy. Our CEO then decides how resources should be allocated among our business segments. For example, if a segment’s revenue increases more than expected, our CEO may consider allocating more financial or other resources to that segment in the future. We periodically evaluate our shared services support function’s allocation methods used for segment reporting purposes, which may result in changes to segment allocations in future periods.

We also review same store sales for our Redbox and Coinstar segments, which we calculate on a location basis. Most of our locations have a single kiosk, but in locations with a high-performing kiosk, we may add additional kiosks to drive incremental revenue and provide a broader product offering. Same store sales reflects the change in revenue from locations that have been operating for more than 13 months by the end of the reporting period compared with the same locations in the same period of the prior year. We use the average selling price of value devices (non-scrap) sold, number of value devices sold and number of overall devices sold rather than same store sales for our ecoATM business because transactions at the kiosk are for product acquisition, not revenue.

Detailed financial information about our business segments, including our change in reportable segments in the first quarter of 2015 and significant customer relationships is provided in Note 14: Business Segments and Enterprise-Wide Informationin our Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

The comparable performance of our content library is continually affected by seasonality, the timing of the release slate and the relative attractiveness of titles available for rent in a particular quarter or year which may have lingering effects in subsequent periods and the ongoing secular decline in the market. Compared with prior periods when kiosk installations were increasing and helping drive growth, Redbox revenue and other operating results may be more affected by these factors.

Q2 2015 Events

• On June 12, 2015, Redbox announced plans to expand the availability of new generation games to all kiosks nationwide in 2015; and

• On June 5, 2015, Redbox entered into an amendment to the April 22, 2010, agreement with Fox that maintains a 28-day window on Blu-ray Disc and DVD titles through June 30, 2017, and includes a revenue sharing arrangement between Redbox and Fox.

Q1 2015 Events

• During the first quarter of 2015, we made the decision to shut down our Redbox Canada operations as the business was not meeting the company's performance expectations. The results of Redbox Canada have been presented as discontinued operations on our Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income and are no longer included in segment operating results presented above. See Note 12: Discontinued Operationsin our Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information;

• On March 31, as part of restructuring efforts, we reduced the size of our Redbox headquarters facility in Oakbrook Terrace, Illinois through early termination of operating leases for certain floors. In accordance with accounting for exit and disposal activities, we recorded pre-tax charges totaling $11.0 million at the cease use date, March 31, 2015. These charges include $4.4 million for the estimated fair value of our remaining lease obligations including an early termination penalty and $6.6 million in impairments of lease related assets. We have included these costs in restructuring and lease termination costs in our Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income; and

• On March 26, 2015, we entered into the Warner Agreement under which Redbox agrees to license minimum quantities of theatrical and direct-to-video titles for rental through March 31, 2017. The Warner Agreement maintains a 28-day window on such titles.

Comparing three months endedJune 30, 2015 to three months endedJune 30, 2014

Revenue decreased$3.9 million, or 0.9%, primarily due to the following:

• $2.7 million decrease from a 0.6%decrease in same store sales primarily due to:

◦ A 13.1% decline in total disc rentals primarily driven by a decline in video game rentals from a consumer transition to new generation platforms, lower demand from price-sensitive customers following the price increases discussed below and the expected secular decline in the market. Movie rentals were also impacted by the relative attractiveness of titles available for rent and the timing of the release slate.

▪ While the total box office (representing titles with North American box office receipts of at least $5.0 million) of titles released during the second quarter of 2015 increased 53.9% as compared to the second quarter of 2014, there was a higher percentage of total content released later in the current period therefore having a shorter period to generate revenue. During the second quarter of 2015, 38.2% of the titles and 45.6% of the total box office for titles released during the quarter were released in the last month. By comparison, during the second quarter of 2014, 12.9% of the titles and 9.5% of the total box office for titles released during the quarter were released in the last month.

▪ Demand was also negatively affected by an increase in competition for viewer time due to several significant theatrical releases during the second quarter of 2015 particularly in the last month of the period which created competition when a significant portion of our box office was released.

◦ We continue to invest in customer-specific promotional offerings to lessen the negative impact on demand driven by the price increase and secular decline.

◦ The negative impact on revenue from the decline in rentals was substantially offset by price increases. We implemented a 30 cent increase in the rental price for DVDs to $1.50 per day, effective December 2, 2014, a 50 cent increase in the rental price for Blu-ray Discs to $2.00 per day, effective December 2, 2014, and a $1.00 increase in the rental price for video games to $3.00 per day, effective January 6, 2015. Revenue from movie rentals increased 0.7% as the net result of the impacts discussed above.

• $1.2 million decrease in revenue from kiosks removed subsequent to the second quarter of 2014 due to continued efforts to optimize our network by removing underperforming kiosks.

Net revenue per rental increased$0.37 to $3.00 primarily due to:

• The impact of the increase in daily rental prices discussed above partially offset by an expected increase in single night rental activity as a result of the price increases; and

• An increase in Blu-ray revenue which represented 18.1% of total revenue and 14.1% of total disc rentals during the second quarter of 2015 as compared with 16.7% and 14.0% during the prior year. Blu-ray revenue increased 7.8% compared to the second quarter of 2014 primarily due to the price increase discussed above; partially offset by

• A decrease in video game revenue which represented 2.4% of total revenue and 0.9% of total disc rentals during the second quarter of 2015 as compared with 3.9% and 1.8% during the prior year primarily due to consumer transition to new generation platforms as the number of discs we stocked in our kiosks was down 47.1% in the second quarter of 2015 as compared to the prior year. As indicated above, we expect to invest more in video games later in the year to expand the availability of new generation games to all kiosks nationwide as additional titles become available for new generation platforms. Video games also were impacted by lower demand from price-sensitive customers and an expected increase in single night rental activity driven by the price change.

Operating income increased$18.4 million, or 38.9%, primarily due to the following:

• $15.9 milliondecrease in direct operating expenses, which were 68.7% of revenue during the second quarter of 2015 as compared with 71.7% during the prior year primarily as a result of:

◦ $5.5 milliondecrease in product costs to $186.4 million primarily due to lower spending on content in the second quarter of 2015 specifically in the games category in response to consumer transition to new generation platforms that combined with the revenue impacts discussed above increased gross margin 0.8% to 57.5% during the second quarter of 2015; and

◦ Direct operating expenses were also impacted by lower credit card fees driven by the lower volume of rentals, lower wireless network charges tied to data usage under new contracts starting in January 2015 and cost containment initiatives related to third party fees for customer service.

49

• $5.7 milliondecrease in depreciation and amortization expenses primarily due to the benefit from kiosk assets that are depreciated over three to five years becoming fully depreciated, partially offset by higher depreciation expense as a result of continued investment in our corporate technology infrastructure and additional depreciation for newly installed or replaced kiosks; and

• $1.3 million decrease in marketing spend due to cost containment measures; partially offset by

• $3.9 milliondecrease in revenue as described above.

Comparing six months endedJune 30, 2015 to six months endedJune 30, 2014

Revenue increased$2.6 million, or 0.3%, primarily due to the following:

• $4.6 millionincrease from a 0.5%increase in same store sales primarily due to:

◦ The benefit from the price increases on the first six months of 2015 as discussed above; partially offset by

◦ A 13.0% decline in rentals for the first six months of 2015 primarily driven by a decline in video game rentals from a consumer transition to new generation platforms, lower demand from price-sensitive customers following the price increases and the expected secular decline in the market. Movie rentals were also impacted by the relative attractiveness of titles available for rent and the timing of the release slate.

▪ Total box office of titles released during the first six months of 2015 decreased 6.6% compared to the first six months of 2014 with a higher percentage of total content released later in the current period therefore having a shorter period to generate revenue. During the first six months of 2015, 18.3% of the titles and 20.5% of the total box office for titles released during the period were released in the last month. By comparison, during the first six months of 2014, 5.3% of the titles and 2.6% of the total box office for titles released during the period were released in the last month.

▪ Demand was also negatively affected by an increase in competition for viewer time due to several significant theatrical releases during the first six months of 2015, particularly in the last month of the period which created competition when a significant portion of our box office was released.

◦ We continued investment in customer-specific promotional offerings throughout the first six months of 2015 to lessen the negative impact on demand driven by the price increase and secular decline.

◦ Revenue from movie rentals increased 1.4% primarily due to the price increases despite the negative impacts on demand.

• $2.0 million decrease in revenue from kiosks removed subsequent to the second half of 2014 due to continued efforts to optimize our network by removing underperforming kiosks.

Net revenue per rental increased$0.40 to $3.00 primarily due to:

• The impact of the increase in daily rental prices discussed above partially offset by an expected increase in single night rental activity as a result of the price increases; and

• An increase in Blu-ray revenue which represented 18.2% of total revenue and 14.3% of total disc rentals during the first six months of 2015 as compared with 17.2% and 14.7% during the prior year. Blu-ray revenue increased 6.1% compared to the first six months of 2014 primarily due to the price increase discussed above. Blu-ray rentals were negatively impacted by lower demand from price-sensitive customers as discussed above, fewer releases and a resulting lower availability of recent Blu-ray content in the first quarter of 2015 compared to the prior year and the secular decline in the market; partially offset by

• A decrease in video game revenue which represented 2.7% of total revenue and 1.1% of total disc rentals during the first six months of 2015 as compared with 3.6% and 1.6% during the prior year primarily due to consumer transition to new generation platforms and under performance of titles released in the fourth quarter of 2014. Video games also were impacted by lower demand from price-sensitive customers and an expected increase in single night rental activity driven by the price change.

Operating income increased$43.3 million, or 38.1%, primarily due to the following:

• $36.6 milliondecrease in direct operating expenses, which were 67.2% of revenue during the first six months of 2015 as compared with 71.2% during the prior year primarily as a result of:

◦ $19.3 million decrease in product costs to $396.8 million primarily due to lower spending on content in the first six months of 2015 due to fewer movie releases primarily in January, a lower average cost per disc in the

50

first quarter of 2015 due to the mix of content and lower games purchases primarily in the second quarter of 2015 in response to consumer transition to new generation platforms that combined with the revenue impacts discussed above increased gross margin 2.1% to 58.6% during the first six months of 2015; and

◦ Direct operating expenses were also impacted by lower credit card fees driven by the lower volume of rentals, lower wireless network charges tied to data usage under new contracts starting in January 2015 and lower costs due to cost containment initiatives related to the field and third party fees for customer service.

• $13.5 milliondecrease in depreciation and amortization expenses primarily due to the benefit from kiosk assets that are depreciated over three to five years becoming fully depreciated, partially offset by higher depreciation expense as a result of continued investment in our corporate technology infrastructure and additional depreciation for newly installed or replaced kiosks;

• $4.3 milliondecrease in general and administrative expenses primarily as a result of ongoing cost reduction initiatives and lower variable expenses associated with IT infrastructure costs, temporary staffing, legal and professional fees;

• $2.6 millionincrease in revenue as described above; and

• $0.9 million decrease in marketing spend due to cost containment measures; partially offset by

• $15.2 million of restructuring and lease termination charges incurred in the first quarter of 2015, which included restructuring efforts surrounding our Redbox facility as discussed above and severance related expenses.

Comparing three months endedJune 30, 2015 to three months endedJune 30, 2014

Revenue increased$0.4 million, or 0.5%, primarily due to growth in the number of Coinstar Exchange kiosks and transactions partially offset by decreased revenue for Coinstar in the U.S. due to a reduction in volume. The impact of the increased coin voucher product transaction fee from 8.9% to 9.9% implemented in the U.K. in August 2014 was primarily offset by the unfavorable exchange rate impact on U.K. revenue due to the strengthening of the U.S. dollar versus the British pound compared to the prior year. Same store sales growth was 1.9% as a result of these factors.

The average Coinstar transaction size increased on a year over year basis while the number of transactions have declined. The decline in transactions is the result of larger pours and less frequent visits and a slight decrease in the U.S. kiosk base year over year as a result of continued optimization efforts.

Operating income increased$1.6 million, or 7.3%, primarily due to the following:

• $0.8 milliondecrease in direct operating expenses due to lower wireless charges tied to data usage under new contracts in 2015, lower vehicle fleet expenses including fuel cost savings from reduced gas prices, and reduction in selling and customer service costs, partially offset by increased revenue sharing costs;

• $0.5 milliondecrease in depreciation and amortization expense primarily due to intangible assets related to customer contracts being fully amortized in August 2014;

• $0.4 millionincrease in revenue as described above; and

• $0.3 million decrease in marketing expense due to an expected shift in timing of marketing expenses to the second half of 2015 compared to the prior year period; partially offset by

• $0.6 millionincrease in general and administrative expenses primarily due to an increase in technology costs, partially offset by lower shared services costs related to professional fees, business taxes, temporary staffing and facilities expenses as a result of an overall reduction in organization costs.

Comparing six months endedJune 30, 2015 to six months endedJune 30, 2014

Revenue increased$1.0 million, or 0.7%, primarily due to growth in the number of Coinstar Exchange kiosks and transactions partially offset by decreased revenue for Coinstar in the U.S. due to a reduction in volume. The impact of the increased coin voucher product transaction fee from 8.9% to 9.9% implemented in the U.K. in August 2014 was primarily offset by the unfavorable exchange rate impact on U.K. revenue due to the strengthening of the U.S. dollar versus the British pound compared to the prior year.

Q2 2015 Events

During the second quarter of 2015, we recognized a goodwill impairment charge of $85.9 million related to ecoATM. The goodwill was originally recognized as part of our acquisition of ecoATM in 2013. During the three months ended June 30, 2015, it became evident that revenue and profitability trends in our ecoATM reporting unit were not being achieved as expected. For example collection rates, revenue and profitability on a per kiosk basis experienced declines versus prior periods and expected seasonal trends. As a result, we revised our internal expectations for future revenue growth and profitability lower than our previous estimates. This is primarily driven by certain challenges in an increasingly competitive industry which impact the per kiosk device collection, revenue and profitability expectations and the timing and installation of kiosks. Further, while these competitive challenges grew more acute during the second quarter, we also experienced the loss of a key executive at ecoATM. See Note 6: Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets in our Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

Q1 2015 Events

During the first quarter of 2015, we added ecoATM, our electronic device recycling business, as a separate reportable segment. Previously, the results of ecoATM along with those of other self-service concepts were included in our New Ventures segment. The combined results of the other self-service concepts, previously included in our New Ventures segment, are included in All Other as they do not meet quantitative thresholds to be reported as a separate segment. All goodwill previously allocated to the New Ventures segment has been allocated to the ecoATM segment.

Comparing three months endedJune 30, 2015 to three months endedJune 30, 2014

Revenue increased$2.3 million, or 9.5%, primarily due to the increase in the number of ecoATM installed kiosks, offset by a lower average selling price on value devices due to a lower mix of higher value devices and lower collections per kiosk compared to the prior year. A majority of ecoATM installs in the quarter were in the mass merchant channel. We are evaluating the grocery channel where we have seen kiosks ramp at a slower rate and have lower collections than mass merchant and mall channel kiosks. During the quarter, ecoATM redeployed approximately 70 underperforming kiosks in the grocery channel to the mall and mass merchant channels to optimize the profitability of the ecoATM kiosk network.

Our key revenue drivers are devices collected, the percentage of those devices that are value devices, as well as the average selling price that we receive when reselling the devices. We experienced increased collections during the quarter with a 116.5% increase in overall devices sold and a 63.8% increase in the number of value devices sold. However, collection of value devices on a per kiosk basis were down compared to the prior year as a result of lower transactions at our kiosks, primarily due to

54

sustained marketing of alternative recycling options from carriers. Carrier marketing also impacted the number of higher value devices that we collected impacting the mix of overall value devices and was the primary reason for the decline in our average selling price of value devices compared to the prior year.

While increased competition from carriers and others impacted ecoATM collection rates during the second quarter, we expect ecoATM collection rates to increase over time through competitive pricing, targeted marketing and deployment of a new user interface that will improve the user experience. Additionally, as we continue to expand our ecoATM installed kiosk base to the mall and mass merchant channels, and selected groceries locations, we expect ecoATM revenue to grow from newly installed kiosks and the continued ramping of previously installed kiosks. We expect ecoATM total expenses to increase due to operating these additional kiosks, but expect expenses as a percentage of revenue to decrease as the business scales. We continually review performance and the impact of device recycling trends such as value devices collected and the average selling price on those devices, as well as kiosk installations and other developments on long term projections for purposes of assessing whether the reporting unit goodwill may be at risk of future impairment.

Operating loss increased$90.9 million primarily due to the $85.9 million goodwill impairment charge recognized in 2015 and the following;

• $4.8 millionincrease in direct operating expenses mainly due to costs associated with our increased installed ecoATM kiosk base, including the acquisition, transportation and processing of electronic devices, servicing of kiosks and payments to retailers. As we install additional kiosks and existing kiosks continue to ramp, we expect to leverage the fixed cost portions of our direct operating expenses;

• $2.5 millionincrease in depreciation and amortization expense primarily from depreciation on our increased installed ecoATM kiosk base; and

• $1.2 millionincrease in marketing costs primarily due to costs to promote the ecoATM brand and raise awareness to the consumer combined with additional headcount to support our installed ecoATM kiosk base; partially offset by

• $2.3 millionincrease in revenue described above; and

• $1.5 milliondecrease in general and administrative expense primarily from a reduction in headcount, lower data facilities costs, and lower temp staffing as a result of an overall reduction in organization costs.

Comparing six months endedJune 30, 2015 to six months endedJune 30, 2014

Revenue increased$6.1 million, or 15.3%, primarily due to the increase in the number of ecoATM installed kiosks, offset by lower average selling price on our value devices due to a lower mix of higher value devices, lower collections per kiosk and lower pricing in the secondary market compared to the prior year. A majority of the growth in installs occurred during the second half of 2014 in the mass merchant and grocery channel. Overall collections increased year over year, with a 116.0% increase in the number of overall devices sold and a 74.3% increase in the number of value devices sold. However, collections of value devices on a per kiosk basis for the six months of the current year were down compared to the prior year as a result of lower transactions at our kiosks, primarily due to sustained marketing of alternative recycling options from carriers. This also impacted the mix of value devices collected and was the primary reason for the decline in our average selling price of value devices compared to the prior year.

Operating loss increased$96.1 million primarily due to the $85.9 million goodwill impairment charge recognized in 2015 and the following;

• $11.7 millionincrease in direct operating expenses mainly due to costs associated with our increased installed ecoATM kiosk base, including the acquisition, transportation and processing of electronic devices, servicing of kiosks and payments to retailers. As we install additional kiosks and existing kiosks continue to ramp, we expect to leverage the fixed cost portions of our direct operating expenses;

• $4.7 millionincrease in depreciation and amortization expense from depreciation on our increased installed ecoATM kiosk base; and

• $2.3 millionincrease in marketing costs primarily due to costs to promote the ecoATM brand and raise awareness to the consumer combined with additional headcount to support our installed ecoATM kiosk base; partially offset by

• $6.1 millionincrease in revenue described above; and

• $2.4 milliondecrease in general and administrative expense primarily from a reduction in headcount, lower data facilities costs, and lower temp staffing as a result of an overall reduction in organization costs.

Loss from Equity Method Investments

Comparing three months endedJune 30, 2015 to three months endedJune 30, 2014

For the three months ended June 30, 2015, our loss from our equity method investments was $0.1 million compared to $10.5 million during the same period of 2014. The decrease in equity method losses is a result of our withdrawal from Redbox Instant by Verizon on October 20, 2014.

Comparing six months endedJune 30, 2015 to six months endedJune 30, 2014

For the six months ended June 30, 2015, our loss from our equity method investments was $0.3 million compared to $19.9 million during the same period of 2014. The decrease in equity method losses is a result of our withdrawal from Redbox Instant by Verizon on October 20, 2014.

Additional financial information about our equity method investments is provided in Note 7: Equity Method Investmentsin our Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Non-GAAP measures may be provided as a complement to results provided in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”).

We use the following non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate our financial results:

• Core adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations;

• Core diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) from continuing operations;

• Free cash flow; and

• Net debt and net leverage ratio.

These measures, the definitions of which are presented below, are non-GAAP because they exclude certain amounts which are included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Our non-GAAP financial measures are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for our GAAP financial measures and may not be comparable with similarly titled measures of other companies.

Core and Non-Core Results

We distinguish our core activities, those associated with our primary operations which we directly control, from non-core activities. Non-core activities are primarily nonrecurring events or events we do not directly control. Our non-core adjustments for the periods presented include i) goodwill impairment, ii) restructuring costs (including severance and early lease termination costs and related impairment of assets) associated with actions to reduce costs in our continuing operations across the Company, iii) compensation expense for rights to receive cash issued in conjunction with our acquisition of ecoATM and attributable to post-combination services as they are fixed amount acquisition related awards and not indicative of the directly controllable future business results, iv) income or loss from equity method investments, which represents our share of income or loss from entities we do not consolidate or control, v) tax benefits related to a net operating loss adjustment, and vi) tax benefit related to worthless stock deduction (“Non-Core Adjustments”).

We believe investors should consider our core results because they are more indicative of our ongoing performance and trends, are more consistent with how management evaluates our operational results and trends, provide meaningful supplemental information to investors through the exclusion of certain expenses which are either nonrecurring or may not be indicative of our directly controllable business operating results, allow for greater transparency in assessing our performance, help investors better analyze the results of our business and assist in forecasting future periods.

Core Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations

Our non-GAAP financial measure core adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations is defined as earnings from continuing operations before depreciation, amortization and other; interest expense, net; income taxes; share-based payments expense; and Non-Core Adjustments.

Free Cash Flow

Our non-GAAP financial measure free cash flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities after capital expenditures. We believe free cash flow is an important non-GAAP measure as it provides additional information to users of the financial statements regarding our ability to service, incur or pay down indebtedness and repurchase our securities. A reconciliation of free cash flow to net cash provided by operating activities, the most comparable GAAP financial measure, is presented in the following table:

Net Debt and Net Leverage Ratio

Our non-GAAP financial measure net debt is defined as the total face value of outstanding debt, including capital leases, less cash and cash equivalents held in financial institutions domestically. Our non-GAAP financial measure net leverage ratio is defined as net debt divided by core adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations for the last twelve months (LTM). We believe net debt and net leverage ratio are important non-GAAP measures because they:

• are used to assess the degree of leverage by management;

• provide additional information to users of the financial statements regarding our ability to service, incur or pay down indebtedness and repurchase our securities as well as additional information about our capital structure; and

• are reported quarterly to support covenant compliance under our credit agreement.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We believe our existing cash, cash equivalents and amounts available to us under our Credit Facility will be sufficient to fund our cash requirements and capital expenditure needs for at least the next 12 months. After that time, the extent of additional financing needed, if any, will depend on the success of our business. If we significantly increase kiosk installations beyond planned levels or if our Redbox, Coinstar or ecoATM kiosks generate lower than anticipated revenue or operating results, then our cash needs may increase. Furthermore, our future capital requirements will depend on a number of factors, including consumer use of our services, the timing and number of machine installations, the number of available installable kiosks, the type and scope of service enhancements, the cost of developing potential new product service offerings, and enhancements, and cash required to fund potential future acquisitions, investment or capital returns to shareholders such as through share repurchases.

The following is an analysis of our year-to-date cash flows:

Net Cash from Operating Activities

Our net cash from operating activities increased by $23.8 million primarily due to the following:

• $72.3 million change in net non-cash income and expense included in net income; and

• $6.5 million decrease in net cash outflows from changes in working capital primarily due to changes in prepaid expenses and other current assets, content library, accounts payable, other accrued liabilities, accrued payable to retailers, and accounts receivable, partially offset by

• $54.9 million decrease in net income to a loss of $10.0 million.

Net Cash used in Investing Activities

We used $37.3 million of net cash in our investing activities primarily due to:

• $40.2 million for the purchases of property and equipment for kiosks and corporate infrastructure; partially offset by

• $2.9 million for proceeds from the sale of property and equipment.

Net Cash used in Financing Activities

We used $154.3 million of net cash from financing activities primarily due to:

• $73.8 million in net payments for borrowings from our Credit Facility;

• $62.7 million for repurchases of our common stock;

• $11.0 million for dividends paid;

• $6.3 million to pay capital lease obligations and other debt; and

• $1.2 million for withholding tax paid on vesting of restricted stock net of proceeds from exercise of stock options.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

A portion of our business involves collecting and processing large volumes of cash, most of it in the form of coins. As of June 30, 2015, our cash and cash equivalent balance was $237.7 million, of which $81.2 million was identified for settling our accrued payable to our retailer partners in relation to our Coinstar kiosks. The remaining balance of our cash and cash equivalents was available for use to support our liquidity needs.

Senior Unsecured Notes Due 2019

On March 12, 2013, we and certain subsidiaries of ours, as subsidiary guarantors, entered into an indenture pursuant to which we issued $350.0 million principal amount of 6.000% Senior Notes due 2019 (the “Senior Notes due 2019”) at par for proceeds, net of expenses, of $343.8 million. The expenses were allocated between debt discount and deferred financing fees based on their nature. As of June 30, 2015, we were in compliance with the covenants of the related indenture.

Senior Unsecured Notes Due 2021

On June 9, 2014, we and certain subsidiaries of ours, as subsidiary guarantors, entered into an indenture pursuant to which we issued $300.0 million principal amount of 5.875% Senior Notes due 2021 (the “Senior Notes due 2021”) at par for proceeds, net of expenses, of $294.0 million. The expenses were allocated between debt discount and deferred financing fees based on their nature.

During the second quarter of 2015, we registered the Senior Notes due 2021 and related guarantees under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) to allow holders to exchange the notes and related guarantees for the same principal amount of a new issue and related guarantees (collectively, the “Exchange Notes”) with substantially identical terms, except that the Exchange Notes are generally freely transferable under the Securities Act. The full principal amount of the Senior Notes due 2021 was exchanged for the Exchange Notes.

As of June 30, 2015, we were in compliance with the covenants of the related indenture.

Revolving Line of Credit and Term Loan

On June 24, 2014, we entered into the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Amended and Restated Credit Agreement”) providing for a senior secured credit facility (the “Credit Facility”). The Amended and Restated Credit Agreement amended and restated in its entirety the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of November 20, 2007 and amended and restated as of April 29, 2009 and as of July 15, 2011 and all amendments and restatements thereto.

The Credit Facility consists of (a) a $150.0 million amortizing term loan (the “Term Loan”) and (b) a $600.0 million revolving line of credit (the “Revolving Line”), which includes (i) a $75.0 million sublimit for the issuance of letters of credit, (ii) a $50.0 million sublimit for swingline loans and (iii) a $75.0 million sublimit for loans in certain foreign currencies available to us and certain wholly owned Company foreign subsidiaries (the “Foreign Borrowers”). We may, subject to applicable conditions and subject to obtaining commitments from lenders, request an increase in the Revolving Line of up to $200.0 million in aggregate (the “Accordion”). As of June 30, 2015, the interest rate on amounts outstanding under the Credit Facility was 1.94% and we were in compliance with the covenants of the Credit Facility.

The Amended and Restated Credit Agreement requires principal amortization payments under the Term Loan as follows:

Dollars in thousands	Repayment Amount
Remainder of 2015	$	5,625
2016	13,125
2017	15,000
2018	18,750
2019	90,000
Total	$	142,500

Letters of Credit

As of June 30, 2015, we had five irrevocable standby letters of credit that totaled $6.4 million. These standby letters of credit, which expire at various times through May 2016, are used to collateralize certain obligations to third parties. As of June 30, 2015, no amounts were outstanding under these standby letter of credit agreements.

Other Contingencies

Contractual Payment Obligations

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with US GAAP. Preparation of these statements requires management to make judgments and estimates. We base our estimates on historical experience and on other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the present circumstances. A summary of significant accounting policies and a description of accounting policies that are considered critical may be found in our 2014 Form 10-K at Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and in our Form 8-K filed on May 8, 2015.

There have been no material changes to the critical accounting policies previously disclosed in our 2014 Form 10-K and in our Form 8-K filed on May 8, 2015, except for the following:

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess purchase price of an acquired enterprise or assets over the estimated fair value of identifiable net assets acquired. We assess goodwill for potential impairment at the reporting unit level on an annual basis as of November 30, or whenever an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount. We may assess qualitative factors to make this determination, or bypass such a qualitative assessment and proceed directly to testing goodwill for impairment using a two-step process. Qualitative factors we may consider include, but are not limited to, macroeconomic conditions, industry conditions, the competitive environment, changes in the market for our products and services, regulatory and political developments and entity specific factors such as strategies and financial performance. If, after completing such assessment, it is determined more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value, we proceed to a two-step impairment test, whereby the first step is comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount, including goodwill. If the fair value of a reporting unit exceeds its carrying amount, goodwill of the reporting unit is considered not impaired and the second step of the test is not performed. The second step of the impairment test is performed when the carrying amount of the reporting unit exceeds the fair value, then the implied fair value of the reporting unit goodwill is compared with the carrying amount of that goodwill. If the carrying amount of the reporting unit goodwill exceeds the implied fair value of that goodwill, an impairment loss shall be recognized in an amount equal to the excess.

During the three months ended June 30, 2015, it became evident that revenue and profitability trends in our ecoATM reporting unit were not being achieved as expected. For example collection rates, revenue and profitability on a per kiosk basis experienced declines versus prior periods and expected seasonal trends. As a result, we revised our internal expectations for future revenue growth and profitability lower than our previous estimates. This is primarily driven by certain challenges in an increasingly competitive industry which impact the per kiosk device collection, revenue and profitability expectations and the timing and installation of kiosks. Further, while these competitive challenges grew more acute during the second quarter, we also experienced the loss of a key executive at ecoATM. This led to an indication in the second quarter of 2015 that ecoATM’s fair value was more likely than not below its carrying value.

As a result, we performed the first step of the goodwill impairment test with the assistance of a third-party valuation specialist. The first step of the impairment test was completed by comparing the carrying value of ecoATM, including goodwill, to its fair value determined using a weighted combination of a discounted cash flow (“DCF”) income based approach and a guideline public company market based approach. The DCF methodology requires significant judgment in selecting appropriate inputs including the risk adjusted market cost of capital for the discount rate, the terminal growth rate and projections of future cash flows, all of which are inherently uncertain. The guideline public company method involves significant judgment in selecting the appropriate inputs including the peer company group, the selection of relevant multiples and the determination of a reasonable control premium. Due to these significant judgments, the fair value determined in connection with the goodwill impairment test may not necessarily be indicative of the actual value that would be recognized in a future transaction. Completion of the first step of the impairment test determined that the carrying amount of ecoATM exceeded its fair value and that the second step of the impairment test needed to be performed.

Under the second step of the impairment test, we completed the process of estimating the fair value of ecoATM’s assets and liabilities, including intangible assets consisting of developed technology, trade name and covenants not to compete for the purpose of deriving an estimate of the implied fair value of goodwill. The estimate of the implied fair value of goodwill was then compared to the recorded goodwill to determine the amount of the impairment. Significant assumptions used in measuring the value of these assets and liabilities included the discount rates and obsolescence rates used in valuing the intangible assets, and replacement costs for valuing the tangible assets.

Based on the result of the second step of the goodwill impairment analysis, we recognized a non-cash, non-tax deductible charge for goodwill impairment of $85.9 million related to our ecoATM business segment.

65

As a result of the impairment recorded, the estimated fair value of the ecoATM reporting unit equals its carrying value. The estimate of ecoATM's fair value includes key assumptions with inherent uncertainty which may change in future periods and have a negative effect on the fair value resulting in potential future impairments, the most significant of which is our estimate of future cash flows predicated on estimated kiosks, revenue and profitability measures.

For additional information see Note 6: Goodwill and Other Intangible Assetsin our Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

There have been no material changes in our reported market risks and risk management policies since the filing of our 2014 Form 10-K.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain a set of disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)). Management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report and has determined that such disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

We also maintain a system of internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act). No changes in our internal control over financial reporting occurred during the year-to-date period ended June 30, 2015 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

In October 2009, an Illinois resident, Laurie Piechur, individually and on behalf of all others similarly situated, filed a putative class action complaint against our Redbox subsidiary in the Circuit Court for the Twentieth Judicial Circuit, St. Clair County, Illinois. The plaintiff alleged that, among other things, Redbox charges consumers illegal and excessive late fees in violation of the Illinois Consumer Fraud and Deceptive Business Practices Act, and that Redbox's rental terms violate the Illinois Rental Purchase Agreement Act or the Illinois Automatic Contract Renewal Act and the plaintiff is seeking monetary damages and other relief. In November 2009, Redbox removed the case to the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Illinois. In February 2010, the District Court remanded the case to the Circuit Court for the Twentieth Judicial Circuit, St. Clair County, Illinois. In May 2010, the court denied Redbox's motion to dismiss the plaintiff's complaint. In November 2011, the plaintiff moved for class certification, and Redbox moved for summary judgment. The court denied Redbox's motion for summary judgment in February 2012. The plaintiff filed an amended complaint on April 19, 2012, and an amended motion for class certification on June 5, 2012. The court denied Redbox's motion to dismiss the amended complaint. The amended class certification motion was briefed and argued. At the hearing on plaintiff's amended motion for class certification, the plaintiff dismissed all claims but two and is pursuing only her claims under the Illinois Rental Purchase Agreement Act and the Illinois Automatic Contract Renewal Act. On May 21, 2013, the court denied plaintiff's amended class action motion. On January 29, 2014, the Illinois Supreme Court denied plaintiff’s petition for leave to appeal the trial court’s denial of class certification. Redbox has moved to dismiss all remaining claims on mootness grounds, and the Court granted Redbox’s motion on December 11, 2014. The plaintiffs appealed on January 7, 2015. We believe that the claims against us are without merit and intend to defend ourselves vigorously in this matter. Currently, no accrual has been established as it was not possible to estimate the possible loss or range of loss because this matter had not advanced to a stage where we could make any such estimate.

OUTERWALL INC.

2015 INCENTIVE COMPENSATION PLAN

FOR LINE OF BUSINESS LEADERS

SUMMARY

The 2015 Incentive Compensation Plan for Line of Business Leaders (the "Plan") is a cash bonus plan in which Outerwall Inc. (the "Company") line of business leaders are eligible to participate. The Plan provides cash bonuses based on the achievement of goals relating to the performance of the Company, the performance of a particular line of business, and individual performance. The performance period for the Plan is January 1, 2015 to December 31, 2015 (the "Performance Period").

OVERVIEW

The Compensation Committee of the Company's Board of Directors (the "Compensation Committee") administers the Plan. The Compensation Committee, in its sole discretion, selects the individuals who will participate in the Plan and the actual bonus (if any) payable to each participant. The target bonus for each participant is determined as a percentage of such participant's base salary, ranging from 50% to 70%, and is determined by the Compensation Committee in its sole discretion (the "Target Bonus").

ELIGIBILITY REQUIREMENTS

Unless specifically provided otherwise in a written agreement between the Company and a participant, a participant must be continuously employed by the Company from January 1, 2015 through December 31, 2015 to be eligible for payment under the Plan. A participant hired after January 1, 2015 and employed through December 31, 2015 may receive a pro-rated bonus payment. A participant who meets these eligibility requirements will be eligible to receive a bonus, even if the participant is not employed by the Company on the date the bonus payment is made.

BONUS PAYOUT

Information about performance measures and calculation of payout amounts is attached:

• Appendix A: Applicable for Redbox Line of Business Leader

• Appendix B: Applicable for Coinstar Line of Business Leader

Individual performance scores will be based on the Compensation Committee's discretion after evaluating the line of business's achievement and/or individual performance for the Performance Period, based on any criteria that the Compensation Committee determines to be appropriate in its sole discretion. The Company's Chief Executive Officer will make recommendations to the Compensation Committee regarding individual performance scores for the Performance Period. The Compensation Committee will then review and approve all individual bonuses.

In aggregate, Participants under the Plan may receive between 0% and 200% of the Target Bonus.

The Compensation Committee may, in its sole discretion, make adjustments to the payouts under the Plan as a result of extraordinary events and/or conditions that either positively or negatively impact the Company's performance.

Payment of each bonus will be made as soon as practicable after the end of the Performance Period, but in any event will be made no later than March 15, 2016. Bonuses will be paid in cash in a single lump sum, subject to payroll taxes and tax withholding.

OTHER

Each bonus that may become payable under the Plan will be paid solely from the general assets of the Company. Nothing in the Plan should be construed to create a trust or to establish or evidence any participant's claim of any right to payment of a bonus other than as an unsecured general creditor with respect to any payment to which a participant may be entitled.

No participant will have any claim to a bonus under the Plan, and the Compensation Committee will have no obligation for uniformity of treatment of participants under the Plan. Furthermore, nothing in the Plan will be deemed to limit in any way the Compensation Committee's full discretion to determine whether to grant any bonuses hereunder.

1

The Compensation Committee reserves the right to unilaterally amend, modify or terminate the Plan at any time, including amending the Plan as it deems necessary or desirable to avoid adverse tax consequences under Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

The Plan is subject to the Company's Policy on Reimbursement of Incentive Payments.

Income Taxes From Continuing Operations

Note 18: Income Taxes From Continuing Operations

Our effective tax rate from continuing operations was (62.4)% and 20.9% for the three months endedJune 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and 113.4% and 29.7% for the six months endedJune 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Our effective tax rate for the three months endedJune 30, 2015, was higher than the U.S. Federal statutory rate of 35.0% primarily due to an $85.9 million non-tax deductible goodwill impairment charge that was recorded in the second quarter of 2015 and state income taxes, partially offset by the domestic production activities deduction and a net decrease in valuation allowances related to capital loss carryforwards and state tax credit carryforwards.

Our effective tax rate for the three months endedJune 30, 2014, was lower than the U.S. Federal statutory rate of 35.0% primarily due to a worthless stock deduction and the domestic production activities deduction, partially offset by state income taxes.

Our effective tax rate for the six months endedJune 30, 2015, was higher than the U.S. Federal statutory rate of 35.0% primarily due to an $85.9 million non-tax deductible goodwill impairment charge that was recorded in the second quarter of 2015 and state income taxes, partially offset by the domestic production activities deduction.

Note 2: Organization and Business

Description of Business

We are a leading provider of automated retail solutions offering convenient products and services that benefit consumers and drive incremental retail traffic and revenue for retailers. During the first quarter of 2015:

• To align with a change in how our chief operating decision maker evaluates business performance, we added ecoATM, our electronic device recycling business, as a separate reportable segment. Previously, the results of ecoATM along with those of other self-service concepts were included in our New Ventures segment. The combined results of the other self-service concepts, which include our product sampling kiosk concept SAMPLEit, are included in the All Other reporting category as they do not meet quantitative thresholds to be reported as a separate segment. See Note 14: Business Segments and Enterprise-Wide Information for additional information; and

• We discontinued our Redbox operations in Canada as the business was not meeting our performance expectations. We have reclassified the results of Redbox Canada to discontinued operations for all periods presented in our Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss). See Note 12: Discontinued Operations for additional information.

Our core offerings in automated retail include our Redbox, Coinstar and ecoATM segments. Our Redbox segment consists of self-service kiosks where consumers can rent or purchase movies and video games. Our Coinstar segment consists of self-service coin-counting kiosks where consumers can convert their coins to cash or stored value products. We also offer self-service kiosks that exchange gift cards for cash under our Coinstar™ Exchange brand. Our ecoATM segment consists of self-service kiosks where consumers can recycle electronic devices for cash. In addition to our three reportable segments, we also conduct business activities through other self-service concepts, where we identify, evaluate, build or acquire and develop innovative new self-service retail concepts and regularly assess these concepts to determine whether continued funding or other alternatives are appropriate.

Our kiosks are located primarily in supermarkets, drug stores, mass merchants, convenience stores, financial institutions, malls and restaurants. Our kiosk and location counts as of June 30, 2015, are as follows:

	Kiosks	Locations
Redbox	41,340	33,840
Coinstar	21,140	19,950

Earnings Per Share (Policies)

6 Months Ended

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Earnings Per Share, Policy

Beginning in the first quarter of 2015, we began applying the two-class method of calculating basic and diluted earnings per share (the “Two-Class Method”) as it became significantly more dilutive than the previously applied treasury stock method as a result of stock repurchases increasing the average number of unvested restricted awards as a percentage of total common shares outstanding.

The Two-Class Method is an earnings allocation formula that treats a participating security, as having rights to earnings that otherwise would have been available to common shareholders and assumes all earnings for the period are distributed. Our unvested restricted stock awards granted are participating securities as they entitle recipients to receive nonforfeitable dividends during the vesting period on a basis equivalent to the dividends paid to holders of common stock. Due to our net loss position for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2015, losses are not allocated to participating shares for the purpose of calculating basic and diluted EPS as restricted stock holders are not required to fund losses.

Basic and diluted weighted average shares were the same for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2015, as the effects of potentially dilutive securities were antidilutive due to our net loss position.

Reclassifications

Reclassifications

To be consistent with our 2015 reporting, the following have been retrospectively reported in our Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss) for all periods presented with no effect on net income, cash flows or stockholder's equity:

• Results of our Redbox Canada operations which were discontinued during the first quarter of 2015. See Note 12: Discontinued Operations for additional information;

• Restructuring and lease termination costs. See Note 11: Restructuring for additional information; and

• Basic and diluted earnings per share as a result of applying the two-class method of calculating earnings per share (the “Two-Class Method”). During the first quarter of 2015, the Two-Class Method became significantly more dilutive than the previously applied treasury stock method as a result of stock repurchases increasing the average number of unvested restricted awards (“participating securities”) as a percentage of total common shares outstanding. The impact of applying the Two-Class Method on both income from continuing operations and basic and diluted weighted average shares used to calculate earnings per common share is as follows:

Accounting Pronouncements Adopted During the Current Year

Accounting Pronouncements Adopted During the Current Year

In April 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-08, Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205) and Property, Plant, and Equipment (Topic 360) Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity. ASU 2014-08 changes the requirements for reporting discontinued operations. Under the ASU discontinued operations is defined as a:

• Component of an entity, or group of components, that

◦ has been disposed of, meets the criteria to be classified as held-for-sale, or has been abandoned/spun-off and

◦ represents a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on an entity’s operations and financial results, or a

◦ business or nonprofit activity that, on acquisition, meets the criteria to be classified as held-for-sale.

We adopted the provisions of ASU 2014-08 during the first quarter of 2015 and applied the guidance to our disposition of our Redbox operations in Canada (“Redbox Canada”). See Note 12: Discontinued Operations for additional information.

Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

There have been no developments to recently issued accounting standards, including the expected dates of adoption and estimated effects on our consolidated financial statements, from those disclosed in our 2014 Annual Report on Form 10-K, except for the following:

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). ASU 2014-09 requires revenue recognition to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 sets forth a new revenue recognition model that requires identifying the contract, identifying the performance obligations, determining the transaction price, allocating the transaction price to performance obligations and recognizing the revenue upon satisfaction of performance obligations. In July 2015, the FASB deferred the effective date for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted to the original effective date of December 15, 2016. The amendments may be applied retrospectively to each prior period presented or retrospectively with the cumulative effect recognized as of the date of initial application. We are currently in the process of evaluating the impact of ASU 2014-09.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs (Subtopic 835-30). This ASU requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, instead of as a deferred charge.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Segment Reporting, Policy

Management, including our chief operating decision maker, who is our CEO, evaluates the performances of our business segments primarily on segment revenue and segment operating income (loss) before depreciation, amortization and other, and share-based compensation granted to executives, non-employee directors and employees (“segment operating income (loss)”). Segment operating income (loss) contains internally allocated costs of our shared service support functions, including but not limited to, corporate executive management, business development, sales, finance, legal, human resources, information technology and risk management. We also review depreciation and amortization allocated to each segment. Share-based payments expense related to share-based compensation granted to executives, non-employee directors and employees and expense related to the rights to receive cash issued in connection with our acquisition of ecoATM are not allocated to our segments and are included in the Corporate Unallocated column in the analysis and reconciliation below; however, share-based payments expense related to our content arrangements with certain movie studios has been allocated to our Redbox segment and is included within direct operating expenses. Our performance evaluation does not include segment assets.

Fair Value (Policies)

6 Months Ended

Jun. 30, 2015

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Fair Value of Financial Instruments, Policy

To measure fair value, we use a three-tier valuation hierarchy based upon observable and non-observable inputs:

• Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

• Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; these include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; or

• Level 3: Unobservable inputs that reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions.

The factors or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

Note 1: Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

The unaudited consolidated financial information included herein has been prepared by Outerwall Inc., pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The unaudited consolidated financial statements of Outerwall Inc. included herein reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary to present fairly our consolidated financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods presented. The financial information as of December 31, 2014, is derived from our 2014 Annual Report on Form 10-K and our Form 8-K filed on May 8, 2015. The consolidated financial statements included within this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in our 2014 Annual Report on Form 10-K and in our Form 8-K filed on May 8, 2015.

The results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Outerwall Inc. and our wholly owned subsidiaries. Investments in companies of which we may have significant influence, but not a controlling interest, are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Reclassifications

To be consistent with our 2015 reporting, the following have been retrospectively reported in our Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss) for all periods presented with no effect on net income, cash flows or stockholder's equity:

• Results of our Redbox Canada operations which were discontinued during the first quarter of 2015. See Note 12: Discontinued Operations for additional information;

• Restructuring and lease termination costs. See Note 11: Restructuring for additional information; and

• Basic and diluted earnings per share as a result of applying the two-class method of calculating earnings per share (the “Two-Class Method”). During the first quarter of 2015, the Two-Class Method became significantly more dilutive than the previously applied treasury stock method as a result of stock repurchases increasing the average number of unvested restricted awards (“participating securities”) as a percentage of total common shares outstanding. The impact of applying the Two-Class Method on both income from continuing operations and basic and diluted weighted average shares used to calculate earnings per common share is as follows:

	As Reported Under the Treasury Stock Method				Amount Allocated to Participating Securities						As Revised Under the Two-Class Method
	Three Months Ended		Six Months Ended		Three Months Ended			Six Months Ended			Three Months Ended		Six Months Ended

See Note 13: Earnings Per Share for additional information.

Accounting Pronouncements Adopted During the Current Year

In April 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-08, Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205) and Property, Plant, and Equipment (Topic 360) Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity. ASU 2014-08 changes the requirements for reporting discontinued operations. Under the ASU discontinued operations is defined as a:

• Component of an entity, or group of components, that

◦ has been disposed of, meets the criteria to be classified as held-for-sale, or has been abandoned/spun-off and

◦ represents a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on an entity’s operations and financial results, or a

◦ business or nonprofit activity that, on acquisition, meets the criteria to be classified as held-for-sale.

We adopted the provisions of ASU 2014-08 during the first quarter of 2015 and applied the guidance to our disposition of our Redbox operations in Canada (“Redbox Canada”). See Note 12: Discontinued Operations for additional information.

Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

There have been no developments to recently issued accounting standards, including the expected dates of adoption and estimated effects on our consolidated financial statements, from those disclosed in our 2014 Annual Report on Form 10-K, except for the following:

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). ASU 2014-09 requires revenue recognition to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 sets forth a new revenue recognition model that requires identifying the contract, identifying the performance obligations, determining the transaction price, allocating the transaction price to performance obligations and recognizing the revenue upon satisfaction of performance obligations. In July 2015, the FASB deferred the effective date for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted to the original effective date of December 15, 2016. The amendments may be applied retrospectively to each prior period presented or retrospectively with the cumulative effect recognized as of the date of initial application. We are currently in the process of evaluating the impact of ASU 2014-09.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs (Subtopic 835-30). This ASU requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, instead of as a deferred charge. We are currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2015-03, which is effective for us in our fiscal year beginning January 1, 2016. Early adoption is permitted.

Fair Value, Assets and Liabilities Measured on Recurring and Nonrecurring Basis [Line Items]

Fair Value

Note 15: Fair Value

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. To measure fair value, we use a three-tier valuation hierarchy based upon observable and non-observable inputs:

• Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

• Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; these include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; or

• Level 3: Unobservable inputs that reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions.

The factors or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

Assets and Liabilities Measured and Reported at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

The following table presents our financial assets and (liabilities) that are measured and reported at fair value in our Consolidated Balance Sheets on a recurring basis, by level within the fair value hierarchy (in thousands):

Fair Value at June 30, 2015	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3
Money market demand accounts and investment grade fixed income securities	$	22,012	$	—	$	—
Fair Value at December 31, 2014	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3
Money market demand accounts and investment grade fixed income securities	$	916	$	—	$	—

Money Market Demand Accounts and Investment Grade Fixed Income Securities

We determine fair value for our money market demand accounts and investment grade fixed income securities based on quoted market prices. The fair value of these assets is included in cash and cash equivalents on our Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Assets and Liabilities Measured and Reported at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis

We recognize or disclose the fair value of certain assets such as non-financial assets, primarily long-lived assets, goodwill, intangible assets and certain other assets in connection with impairment evaluations. All of our nonrecurring valuations use significant unobservable inputs and therefore fall under Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

For more information regarding the goodwill impairment charge recognized in the three months ended June 30, 2015, and the related fair value, see Note 6: Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.

Fair Value of Other Financial Instruments

The carrying value of our term loans approximates their fair value and falls under Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

We estimated the fair value of our senior unsecured notes due 2019 and 2021 outstanding using quoted market prices by independent dealers. The estimated fair value of our senior unsecured notes due 2019 and 2021 was approximately $350.0 million and $300.0 million, at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. The fair value estimate of our senior unsecured notes falls under Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. We have reported the carrying value, face value less the unamortized debt discount, of our senior unsecured notes, issued at par, in our Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Share-based Compensation [Abstract]

Share-Based Payments

Note 10: Share-Based Payments

We currently grant share-based awards to our executives, non-employee directors and employees under our 2011 Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). The Plan permits the granting of stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, and performance-based restricted stock.

Share-Based Compensation

Shares of common stock are issued upon exercise of stock options. The following table presents a summary of stock option activity for 2015:

Shares in thousands	Options		Weighted Average Exercise Price
Outstanding, December 31, 2014	128		$	52.59

Weighted average remaining contractual term (in years)	6.83		6.59

Restricted stock and performance based restricted stock awards

Restricted stock awards are granted to eligible executives, non-employee directors and employees. Awards granted to employees and executives vest annually in equal installments over four years. Non-employee director awards vest one year after the grant date. Performance-based restricted stock awards are granted to executives only, with established performance criteria approved by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. The fair value of non-performance-based awards is based on the market price on the grant date. We estimate forfeitures for restricted stock awards and recognize share-based compensation expense for only those awards expected to vest.

Awards of performance-based restricted stock made prior to 2013, once earned, vest in equal installments over three years from the date of grant. Awards of performance-based restricted stock made in and subsequent to 2013, once earned, vest in two installments over three years from the date of grant (65% of the award vests two years from the date of grant and the remaining 35% of the award vests three years from the date of grant). The restricted shares require no payment from the grantee. The fair value of performance-based awards is based on achieving specific performance conditions and is recognized over the vesting period.

The following table presents a summary of restricted stock award activity for 2015:

Shares in thousands	Restricted Stock Awards		Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value
Non-vested, December 31, 2014	609		$	62.35
Granted	277		56.53
Vested	(173	)	59.46
Forfeited	(171	)	60.71
Non-vested, June 30, 2015	542		61.00

Share-Based Payments for Content Arrangements

We have granted restricted stock as part of content license agreements with certain movie studios. The expense related to these agreements is included within direct operating expenses in our Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss) and is adjusted based on the number of unvested shares and market price of our common stock each reporting period. During the first quarter of 2015, 50,000 shares of restricted stock were granted and immediately vested pursuant to a revenue sharing agreement with Paramount.

Information related to the shares of restricted stock granted as part of these agreements as of June 30, 2015, is as follows:

Whole shares	Granted	Vested	Unvested
Paramount(1)	350,000	350,000	—

(1) Includes 95,000 shares that vested on January 1, 2015.

Rights to Receive Cash

As a part of the acquisition of ecoATM, we issued replacement awards for unvested restricted stock and options in ecoATM with rights to receive cash equal to the per share merger consideration for restricted stock and net of the exercise price for options. The replacement awards vest in accordance with the terms of the original replaced award. The replacement awards are considered liability classified as they represent rights to receive cash. Expense associated with the post-combination awards is recognized net of forfeitures, and cash payments are made in accordance with the awards' vesting schedule, generally on a monthly basis. We recognized $2.9 million in expense associated with the issuance of rights to receive cash for the six months endedJune 30, 2015. The expected future recognition of expense associated with the rights to receive cash as of June 30, 2015 is as follows:

Restructuring

Note 11: Restructuring

During the first quarter of 2015, we recorded restructuring charges arising from the following activities:

• Discontinuing our Redbox operations in Canada. The disposal was completed on March 31, 2015. See Note 12: Discontinued Operations for further information;

• Reducing the size of our Redbox headquarters facility in Oakbrook Terrace, Illinois through early termination of operating leases for certain floors. We ceased using the office space on March 31, 2015 and the effective date of the early termination is July 31, 2016. Prior to exercising our early termination option, the leases had been scheduled to expire in July 2021; and

• Implementing actions to further align costs with revenues in our continuing operations primarily through workforce reductions across the Company and subleasing a floor of a corporate facility.

There were no significant restructuring charges in the second quarter of 2015 or 2014. The total amount incurred for restructuring, exclusive of asset impairments incurred by reportable segment (on an allocated basis) and expense type is as follows:

During the six months ended June 30, 2015, we recognized $16.4 million in charges in connection with our restructuring and early lease termination including $6.9 million in impairments of lease related assets, and $9.4 million in restructuring costs, which include severance and net lease termination costs.

Lease Commitments

Operating Leases

During the first half of 2015, we made the following changes to our operating leases:

• We early terminated our operating lease of certain floors of our Redbox headquarters and recognized the fair value of the ongoing lease payments and other related costs through the effective date of termination, July 31, 2016, as of the cease use date, March 31, 2015. See Note 11: Restructuring for additional information; and

• We entered into a new operating lease of 16,085 square feet of office space in Woodland Hills, California which expires May 31, 2022.

As of June 30, 2015, our future minimum lease payments, net of sublease income are as follows:

Dollars in thousands	Operating Leases(1)
Remaining in 2015	$	8,875
2016	14,624

Total minimum lease commitments, net	$	56,958

(1) Includes all operating leases having an initial or remaining non-cancelable lease term in excess of one year.

Purchase commitments

Pursuant to the manufacturing and services agreement entered into as part of the NCR Asset Acquisition, Outerwall, Redbox or an affiliate were committed to purchase goods and services from NCR for a period of five years from June 22, 2012. At the end of the five-year period, if the aggregate amount paid in margin to NCR for goods and services delivered was to equal less than $25.0 million, Outerwall was to pay NCR the difference between such aggregate amount and $25.0 million. We made no purchases in the six months ended June 30, 2015. As of June 30, 2015, our remaining commitment is $15.8 million under this arrangement.

We have also entered into other certain miscellaneous purchase agreements in the normal course of business, which resulted in total purchase commitments of $41.9 million as of June 30, 2015.

Content License Agreements

On July 14, 2015, Sony elected to exercise its option to extend our existing content license agreement with them. This will extend the license period through September 30, 2016. See Note 20: Subsequent Eventsfor additional information.

On June 5, 2015, Redbox entered into an amendment to the existing April 22, 2010, agreement with Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment LLC (“Fox”) that maintains a 28-day window on Blu-ray Disc^® and DVD titles through June 30, 2017, and includes a revenue sharing arrangement between Redbox and Fox.

On March 26, 2015, we entered into a revenue sharing agreement with Warner Home Video, a division of Warner Bros. Home Entertainment Inc., (the “Warner Agreement”) under which Redbox agrees to license minimum quantities of theatrical and direct-to-video titles for rental through March 31, 2017. The Warner Agreement maintains a 28-day window on such titles.

We have entered into certain license agreements to obtain content for movie and video game rentals. A summary of the estimated commitments in relation to these agreements as of June 30, 2015, is presented in the following table:

Letters of Credit

As of June 30, 2015, we had five irrevocable standby letters of credit that totaled $6.4 million. These standby letters of credit, which expire at various times through May 2016, are used to collateralize certain obligations to third parties. As of June 30, 2015, no amounts were outstanding under these standby letter of credit agreements.

Legal Matters

In October 2009, an Illinois resident, Laurie Piechur, individually and on behalf of all others similarly situated, filed a putative class action complaint against our Redbox subsidiary in the Circuit Court for the Twentieth Judicial Circuit, St. Clair County, Illinois. The plaintiff alleged that, among other things, Redbox charges consumers illegal and excessive late fees in violation of the Illinois Consumer Fraud and Deceptive Business Practices Act, and that Redbox's rental terms violate the Illinois Rental Purchase Agreement Act or the Illinois Automatic Contract Renewal Act and the plaintiff is seeking monetary damages and other relief. In November 2009, Redbox removed the case to the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Illinois. In February 2010, the District Court remanded the case to the Circuit Court for the Twentieth Judicial Circuit, St. Clair County, Illinois. In May 2010, the court denied Redbox's motion to dismiss the plaintiff's complaint. In November 2011, the plaintiff moved for class certification, and Redbox moved for summary judgment. The court denied Redbox's motion for summary judgment in February 2012. The plaintiff filed an amended complaint on April 19, 2012, and an amended motion for class certification on June 5, 2012. The court denied Redbox's motion to dismiss the amended complaint. The amended class certification motion was briefed and argued. At the hearing on plaintiff's amended motion for class certification, the plaintiff dismissed all claims but two and is pursuing only her claims under the Illinois Rental Purchase Agreement Act and the Illinois Automatic Contract Renewal Act. On May 21, 2013, the court denied plaintiff's amended class action motion. On January 29, 2014, the Illinois Supreme Court denied plaintiff’s petition for leave to appeal the trial court’s denial of class certification. Redbox has moved to dismiss all remaining claims on mootness grounds, and the Court granted Redbox’s motion on December 11, 2014. The plaintiffs appealed on January 7, 2015. We believe that the claims against us are without merit and intend to defend ourselves vigorously in this matter. Currently, no accrual has been established as it was not possible to estimate the possible loss or range of loss because this matter had not advanced to a stage where we could make any such estimate.

Discontinued Operations and Disposal Groups [Abstract]

Discontinued Operations

Note 12: Discontinued Operations

Summary Financial Information

On January 23, 2015, we made the decision to shut down our Redbox Canada operations as the business was not meeting the company's performance expectations. This represents a strategic shift which has a major effect on our operations as it represents a significant geographical area for our Redbox segment and the losses generated were significant to our total operations. On March 31, 2015, we completed the disposal of the Redbox Canada operations. As a result, we updated certain estimates used in the preparation of the financial statements and the remaining value of the content library and certain capitalized property and equipment consisting primarily of installation costs were amortized over the wind-down period ending March 31, 2015. We have reclassified the results of Redbox Canada to discontinued operations for all periods presented in our Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss).

In addition to Redbox Canada, discontinued operations for the six months ended June 30, 2014 included a $1.3 million pretax loss from operations and a $0.5 million income tax benefit related to the wind-down process of certain new ventures that were discontinued during 2013. Continuing cash flows from the wind-down process were not material. Total loss on discontinued operations is as follows:

	Three Months Ended					Six Months Ended
	June 30,					June 30,
Dollars in thousands	2015		2014			2015			2014

Senior Unsecured Notes Due 2019

On March 12, 2013, we and certain subsidiaries of ours, as subsidiary guarantors, entered into an indenture pursuant to which we issued $350.0 million principal amount of 6.000% Senior Notes due 2019 (the “Senior Notes due 2019”) at par for proceeds, net of expenses, of $343.8 million. The expenses were allocated between debt discount and deferred financing fees based on their nature. As of June 30, 2015, we were in compliance with the covenants of the related indenture.

Senior Unsecured Notes Due 2021

On June 9, 2014, we and certain subsidiaries of ours, as subsidiary guarantors, entered into an indenture pursuant to which we issued $300.0 million principal amount of 5.875% Senior Notes due 2021 (the “Senior Notes due 2021”) at par for proceeds, net of expenses, of $294.0 million. The expenses were allocated between debt discount and deferred financing fees based on their nature.

During the second quarter of 2015, we registered the Senior Notes due 2021 and related guarantees under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) to allow holders to exchange the notes and related guarantees for the same principal amount of a new issue and related guarantees (collectively, the “Exchange Notes”) with substantially identical terms, except that the Exchange Notes are generally freely transferable under the Securities Act. The full principal amount of the Senior Notes due 2021 was exchanged for the Exchange Notes.

As of June 30, 2015, we were in compliance with the covenants of the related indenture.

Revolving Line of Credit and Term Loan

On June 24, 2014, we entered into the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Amended and Restated Credit Agreement”) providing for a senior secured credit facility (the “Credit Facility”). The Amended and Restated Credit Agreement amended and restated in its entirety the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of November 20, 2007 and amended and restated as of April 29, 2009 and as of July 15, 2011 and all amendments and restatements thereto.

The New Credit Facility consists of (a) a $150.0 million amortizing term loan (the “Term Loan”) and (b) a $600.0 million revolving line of credit (the “Revolving Line”), which includes (i) a $75.0 million sublimit for the issuance of letters of credit, (ii) a $50.0 million sublimit for swingline loans and (iii) a $75.0 million sublimit for loans in certain foreign currencies available to us and certain wholly owned Company foreign subsidiaries (the “Foreign Borrowers”). We may, subject to applicable conditions and subject to obtaining commitments from lenders, request an increase in the Revolving Line of up to $200.0 million in aggregate (the “Accordion”). As of June 30, 2015, the interest rate on amounts outstanding under the Credit Facility was 1.94% and we were in compliance with the covenants of the Credit Facility.

The Amended and Restated Credit Agreement requires principal amortization payments under the Term Loan as follows:

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

Goodwill and Intangible Assets Disclosure [Abstract]

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

Note 6: Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

Goodwill

We assess goodwill for potential impairment at the reporting unit level on an annual basis as of November 30, or whenever an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount. During the three months ended June 30, 2015, it became evident that revenue and profitability trends in our ecoATM reporting unit were not being achieved as expected. For example collection rates, revenue and profitability on a per kiosk basis experienced declines versus prior periods and expected seasonal trends. As a result, we revised our internal expectations for future revenue growth and profitability lower than our previous estimates. This is primarily driven by certain challenges in an increasingly competitive industry which impact the per kiosk device collection, revenue and profitability expectations and the timing and installation of kiosks. Further, while these competitive challenges grew more acute during the second quarter, we also experienced the loss of a key executive at ecoATM. This led to an indication in the second quarter of 2015 that ecoATM’s fair value was more likely than not below its carrying value.

As a result, we performed the first step of the goodwill impairment test with the assistance of a third-party valuation specialist. The first step of the impairment test was completed by comparing the carrying value of ecoATM, including goodwill, to its fair value determined using a weighted combination of a discounted cash flow (“DCF”) income based approach and a guideline public company market based approach. The DCF methodology requires significant judgment in selecting appropriate inputs including the risk adjusted market cost of capital for the discount rate, the terminal growth rate and projections of future cash flows, all of which are inherently uncertain. The guideline public company method involves significant judgment in selecting the appropriate inputs including the peer company group, the selection of relevant multiples and the determination of a reasonable control premium. Due to these significant judgments, the fair value determined in connection with the goodwill impairment test may not necessarily be indicative of the actual value that would be recognized in a future transaction. Completion of the first step of the impairment test determined that the carrying amount of ecoATM exceeded its fair value and that the second step of the impairment test needed to be performed.

Under the second step of the impairment test, we completed the process of estimating the fair value of ecoATM’s assets and liabilities, including intangible assets consisting of developed technology, trade name and covenants not to compete for the purpose of deriving an estimate of the implied fair value of goodwill. The estimate of the implied fair value of goodwill was then compared to the recorded goodwill to determine the amount of the impairment. Significant assumptions used in measuring the value of these assets and liabilities included the discount rates and obsolescence rates used in valuing the intangible assets, and replacement costs for valuing the tangible assets. The inputs and assumptions used in our goodwill impairment test are classified as Level 3 inputs within the fair value hierarchy.

Based on the result of the second step of the goodwill impairment analysis, we recognized a non-cash, non-tax deductible charge for goodwill impairment of $85.9 million related to our ecoATM business segment.

As a result of the impairment recorded, the estimated fair value of the ecoATM reporting unit equals its carrying value. The estimate of ecoATM's fair value includes key assumptions with inherent uncertainty which may change in future periods and have a negative effect on the fair value resulting in potential future impairments, the most significant of which is our estimate of future cash flows predicated on estimated kiosks, revenue and profitability measures.

Gross amount of goodwill and accumulated impairment charges that we have recorded are as follows:

Business Segments and Enterprise-Wide Information

Segment Reporting [Abstract]

Business Segments and Enterprise-Wide Information

Note 14: Business Segments and Enterprise-Wide Information

Management, including our chief operating decision maker, who is our CEO, evaluates the performances of our business segments primarily on segment revenue and segment operating income (loss) before depreciation, amortization and other, and share-based compensation granted to executives, non-employee directors and employees (“segment operating income (loss)”). Segment operating income (loss) contains internally allocated costs of our shared service support functions, including but not limited to, corporate executive management, business development, sales, finance, legal, human resources, information technology and risk management. We also review depreciation and amortization allocated to each segment. Share-based payments expense related to share-based compensation granted to executives, non-employee directors and employees and expense related to the rights to receive cash issued in connection with our acquisition of ecoATM are not allocated to our segments and are included in the Corporate Unallocated column in the analysis and reconciliation below; however, share-based payments expense related to our content arrangements with certain movie studios has been allocated to our Redbox segment and is included within direct operating expenses. Our performance evaluation does not include segment assets.

Changes in our Organizational Structure

During the first quarter of 2015, we added ecoATM, our electronic device recycling business, as a separate reportable segment. Previously, the results of ecoATM along with those of other self-service concepts were included in our New Ventures segment. The combined results of the other self-service concepts, which include product sampling kiosk concept SAMPLEit, are now included in the All Other reporting category in the reconciliation below as they do not meet quantitative thresholds to be reported as a separate segment. All goodwill previously allocated to the New Ventures segment has been allocated to the ecoATM segment. See Note 6: Goodwill and Other Intangible Assetsfor further information.

Comparability of Segment Results

We have recast prior period results for the following:

• Discontinued operations, consisting of our Redbox operations in Canada which we shut down during the first quarter of 2015. See Note 12: Discontinued Operationsfor further information; and

• The addition of our ecoATM segment and an All Other reporting category, which we added during the first quarter of 2015.

Our analysis and reconciliation of our segment information to the consolidated financial statements that follows covers our results of operations, which consists of our Redbox, Coinstar and ecoATM segments, Corporate Unallocated expenses and All Other. All Other includes the results of other self-service concepts, which we regularly assess to determine whether continued funding or other alternatives are appropriate.

Note 20: Subsequent Events

On July 14, 2015, Sony elected to exercise its option to extend our existing content license agreement with them. This will extend the license period through September 30, 2016, with no further options to renew, and require us to issue 25,000 shares of additional restricted stock to Sony during the fourth quarter of 2015. After accounting for this extension, our total commitment to purchase content from Sony was approximately $157.8 million.

On July 28, 2015, the Board of directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.30 per share expected to be paid on September 15, 2015, to all stockholders of record as of the close of business on August 28, 2015.

Earnings Per Share

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]

Earnings Per Share

Note 13: Earnings Per Share

Beginning in the first quarter of 2015, we began applying the two-class method of calculating basic and diluted earnings per share (the “Two-Class Method”) as it became significantly more dilutive than the previously applied treasury stock method as a result of stock repurchases increasing the average number of unvested restricted awards as a percentage of total common shares outstanding.

The Two-Class Method is an earnings allocation formula that treats a participating security, as having rights to earnings that otherwise would have been available to common shareholders and assumes all earnings for the period are distributed. Our unvested restricted stock awards granted are participating securities as they entitle recipients to receive nonforfeitable dividends during the vesting period on a basis equivalent to the dividends paid to holders of common stock. Due to our net loss position for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2015, losses are not allocated to participating shares for the purpose of calculating basic and diluted EPS as restricted stock holders are not required to fund losses.

Basic and diluted weighted average shares were the same for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2015, as the effects of potentially dilutive securities were antidilutive due to our net loss position. Our calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share is as follows:
