Each year reflects what the cumulative value of $100 would be, including the reinvestment of dividends, if such amount were invested on December 31, 2020. For purposes of reporting comparative stockholder returns per Item 201(e) of Regulation S-K under the Exchange Act in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, both the S&P MidCap 400 – Financials Index and the S&P MidCap 400 – Consumer Discretionary Index are used by the Company. Given that more than 50% of the Company’s earnings in 2025 were from consumer finance-related activities, the Company has elected to use the S&P MidCap 400 – Financials Index Returns as the peer group benchmark in this table. For informational purposes, the stockholder returns for the S&P MidCap 400 – Consumer Discretionary Index were $129.35, $137.12, $125.32, $100.84 and 127.69 for 2025, 2024, 2023, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
