The upsized facility provides substantial dry powder for acquisitions, particularly the Ramsdens pawn acquisition pending UK regulatory approval. Monitor for Ramsdens closing and any subsequent drawdowns on the facility, which would signal deployment of capital into accretive M&A.

Executive Summary
FirstCash Holdings upsized its unsecured revolving credit facility from $700M to $1.055B, extended the maturity to August 2031, reduced the unused commitment fee, and added GBP borrowing capacity up to $500M USD equivalent. The amendment also increased the permitted net leverage ratio to 3.5x EBITDA for the full term and added UK borrowers and new guarantors, directly supporting the company's acquisition pipeline including the pending Ramsdens pawn acquisition in the UK.
