 increased 35% to 31 cents for the second quarter 2006 compared to 23 cents for the same period in 2005. Earnings per share from continuing operations exceeded the Company's initially published expectations in April of 2006 and were at the top of the range of an updated release of management's anticipated financial results for the second quarter reported on July July: see month.  10, 2006.

The Company experienced a significant increase in total revenue in the second quarter leading to the higher level of earnings than initially expected. The increase in total revenue came from a 12% increase in the combined revenue from fees and service charges on pawn loans plus fees from cash advances which collectively rose to $74.0 million during the 2006 second quarter, up from $66.0 million during the same period last year. In addition, retail sales activity during the period was robust as merchandise MERCHANDISE.

It is usually applied to personal chattels only, and to those which are not required for food or immediate support, but such as remain  sold during the second quarter of 2006 reached $72.9 million, up from $65.3 million in the same period in 2005, an increase of 12%. Total revenue for the second quarter of 2006 was $149.6 million compared to $133.6 million in the prior year period, an increase of $16.0 million or 12% year over year.

Also contributing to the successful quarter were higher gross profit margins Gross profit margin

The improvement on the gross profit margin on merchandise sold led to a 13% increase in net revenue for the second quarter of 2006 compared to the same period in 2005. Same store net revenue for locations open for more than one year rose 7.4% during the period.

For the first six months of fiscal year 2006, Cash America produced an increase in net income of 40% to $26,301,000 (86 cents per share) compared to $18,802,000 (62 cents per share) in the same period for the prior year. Excluding the after-tax af·ter-tax also af·ter·tax

This increase was achieved on a 12% increase in total revenue, which reached $312.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2006 compared to $278.6 million for the same period in the prior year.

Outlook for the Third Quarter of 2006 and Related Fiscal Year

Management believes that continued growth in earnings will be largely a function of sustained increases in demand for its loan products, which generally lead to higher asset balances and revenue. Other elements expected to affect the growth in revenue include the development of the 182 additional lending locations opened or acquired during the last 24 months and the regulatory reg·u·late

As it enters the third quarter of 2006, management anticipates that demand for the Company's products will remain strong. Based on the preceding factors, management expects that the third quarter net income will be between 38 cents and 41 cents per share in 2006, compared to 32 cents per share in 2005. This estimate excludes any potential future benefit from the pending completion of its recently announced acquisition transaction with CashNetUSA, which is more fully described below.

At this time, management expects that full year 2006 earnings per share from net income will range between $1.85 and $1.93 compared to $1.48 per share in fiscal 2005. The 2006 full year estimates do not include the $1.4 million after tax gain (5 cents per share) related to the early termination of a store lease reported in the second quarter.

Note: To more accurately estimate the administrative expenses
    associated with each operating segment, the Company began in the
    second quarter of 2006 to allocate its aggregate administrative
    expenses on a different basis. Management believes that the
    current methodology creates a more balanced allocation among the
    segments based on the time, resources and activities associated
    with the administrative activities of each operating segment. All
    prior periods have been revised to reflect this change in the
    allocation of administrative burden. There is no change to the
    consolidated performance of the Company for any period. There are
    no other changes to the segment results other than to the
    administrative expense allocation.
