Item 5.       Other Events and Regulation FD Disclosure

     On May 14, 2004, EZCORP,  Inc. (the "Company") received a subpoena from the
Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC").  The subpoena relates to an on-going
investigation  by the SEC of certain jewelry  companies,  including  Friedman's,
Inc.  ("Friedman's").  The subpoena requests  production of all of the Company's
documents  concerning  Morgan  Schiff  & Co.,  Inc.  ("Morgan  Schiff")  and any
compensation  paid or any other  benefits  provided to any  individual or entity
employed by or otherwise affiliated with Morgan Schiff, since January 1, 1994.

     As previously  disclosed in the  Company's  reports filed with the SEC, the
Company has a financial advisory  agreement with Morgan Schiff.  Morgan Schiff's
sole  stockholder  may be deemed to be the  controlling  stockholder of both the
Company and Friedman's.

     The  Company  has  today   determined   that  the  subjects  of  the  SEC's
investigation include Friedman's and its affiliates.  Because of Morgan Schiff's
sole stockholder's  beneficial ownership in both Friedman's and the Company, the
Company may be  considered an affiliate of  Friedman's.  The SEC has not advised
the  Company  that the Company is the  subject of the  investigation.  The SEC's
letter to the Company  accompanying  the subpoena states that the  investigation
should not be construed as an  indication  by the SEC that any  violation of law
has occurred or as a reflection on any person,  entity or security.  The Company
is cooperating with the SEC in responding to the subpoena.
