Upbound Group Reports Strong Q2 2025 Results

Upbound Group, Inc. ( (UPBD) ) has released its Q2 earnings. Here is a breakdown of the information Upbound Group, Inc. presented to its investors.

Upbound Group, Inc. is a technology and data-driven company that provides financial solutions to underserved consumers through its brands Acima, Brigit, and Rent-A-Center, operating across various retail and digital channels in the United States, Mexico, and Puerto Rico.

In its latest earnings report, Upbound Group, Inc. announced a 7.5% increase in consolidated revenues year-over-year, reaching $1,157.5 million, driven by the acquisition of Brigit and increased revenues from rentals, fees, and merchandise sales. The company also reported achieving its Q2 2025 guidance targets and raised the midpoint of its FY 2025 Non-GAAP Diluted EPS target.

Key financial highlights include a 16% GMV growth in the Acima segment, marking its seventh consecutive quarter of growth, and a nearly 40% revenue growth at Brigit. Despite these gains, the company’s GAAP operating profit decreased to $50.7 million from $80.7 million in the previous year, with a net earnings decrease to $15.5 million. Adjusted EBITDA rose by 7.0% to $133.2 million, attributed to the performance of Acima and the addition of Brigit.

The company faced challenges in the Rent-A-Center segment, with a 7.1% decrease in revenues due to a reduction in store count and lower deliveries. However, Upbound’s strategic focus on meeting evolving customer and merchant needs through its diverse brand offerings positions it well for future growth.

Looking ahead, Upbound Group, Inc. remains optimistic about its growth trajectory, supported by its robust business model and strategic initiatives. The company aims to continue supporting customer and merchant needs while achieving its financial guidance for 2025 and positioning itself for a strong start in 2026.
