NEW YORK, Feb. 20, 2022 — Pomerantz LLP is investigating claims on behalf of investors of FirstCash, Inc. Such investors are advised to contact Robert S. Willoughb
The investigation concerns whether FirstCash and certain of its officers and/or directors have engaged in securities fraud or other unlawful business practices.

The CFPB’s lawsuit seeks an injunction, redress for affected borrowers, and a civil money penalty.
On this news, FirstCash’s stock price fell $7.50 per share, or 8.71%, to close at $78.64 per share on November 12, 2021.
