Dow Jones Description

QC Holdings is a customer-focused provider of convenient financial solutions that meet the immediate needs of mainstream Americans. Based in Overland Park, Kansas, QC operates more than 550 branch locations across the country, offering a variety of financial services that include payday loans, check cashing, money orders and Western Union money transfers. Our company started in 1984 with the opening of a rent-to-own store near Kansas City, Missouri. To meet customer needs, co-founders Don Early and Mary Lou Andersen began offering check cashing services in 1989, and payday loans in 1992. Recognizing the strong demand for financial products and services, the company in 1994 sold the rent-to-own stores to focus on check cashing and payday loans. Within two years, QC grew from 48 to more than 150 locations through new store openings and acquisitions. Rapid growth continued through the late 1990s to mid-2000s as QC capitalized on strong consumer demand and used its strong regional management group to open new branches across the country. Recognizing that its growth could be fueled by new investment, QC became one of a few publicly traded payday loan companies on July 16, 2004. QC trades stock on the NASDAQ under the symbol "QCCO."
