FirstCash raises stock repurchase authorization to $350 million

On October 28, 2026, FirstCash Holdings’ board increased its stock repurchase authorization to $350 million. The company had repurchased 644,000 shares under the existing program, while its expanded authorization supports capital returns alongside store growth. The increase was reported as $200M, with $222M remaining for additional repurchases.

The authorization gives FirstCash more capacity to return capital through share repurchases, which can reduce shares outstanding if executed. The company said it can fund store expansion and the larger buyback because of its balance sheet and free cash flows.
