UPBOUND GROUP INC

From time to time, we, along with our subsidiaries, are party to various legal proceedings and governmental inquiries arising in the ordinary course of business. We regularly monitor developments related to these legal proceedings and governmental inquiries, review the adequacy of our legal reserves on a quarterly basis, and reserve for loss contingencies that we determine are both probable and reasonably estimable. Although we have not determined that any of these matters will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements, we cannot predict the impact of future developments or provide assurances that a resolution of any such matter would not have a material and adverse impact during a future period. In addition, claims and lawsuits against us may seek injunctive or other relief that requires changes to our business practices or operations and it is possible that any required changes may materially and adversely impact our business, financial condition, results of operations or reputation. Please see Note 11 of our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional discussion of certain of our legal proceedings and governmental inquiries.
