QC Holdings, Inc. Reports First Quarter 2017 Results


OVERLAND PARK, Kan., May 26, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- QC Holdings, Inc. (OTC PINK:QCCO) reported net income of $365,000 and revenues of $23.4 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2017. Net income totaled $1.2 million and revenues totaled $31.7 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2016.

Each quarter includes severance charges of approximately $200,000.

The decline in revenues during 2017 compared to 2016 was attributable to the third quarter 2016 store swap transaction, whereby the company acquired 33 branches operated in Illinois, Kansas, Missouri and Utah and sold its 98 branches operated in Alabama, Arizona, California, Mississippi and Ohio. Loan loss rates were lower in 2017 versus 2016 due to recoveries in the business-to-business portfolio and better-than-expected collections in the branches that were closed.
