                                 FORM 10-Q/A
                              (Amendment No. 1)

                  For the Three Months Ended March 31, 2004

                               EXPLANATORY NOTE

      This Amendment  No. 1  on Form  10-Q/A  (this "Amendment")  amends  the
 Quarterly Report on  Form 10-Q  for the Three  Months Ended  March 31,  2004
 filed  on  May  5,  2004  (the  "Original  Filing").  First  Cash  Financial
 Services, Inc.  (the "Company")  has filed  this  Amendment to  correct  the
 classification of certain transactions presented  in the Statements of  Cash
 Flows in the Original Filing.  The net effect  of the corrections  of  these
 classifications in  each  period presented  is  to increase  operating  cash
 flows, while decreasing investing and financing  cash flows.  These  changes
 were identified during the course of the Company preparing its response to a
 comment letter from  the U.S. Securities  and Exchange Commission  regarding
 the Original Filing.

      A description of  these reclassifications and  a summary showing  their
 effect on the restated  Condensed Consolidated Statements  of Cash Flows  is
 provided in Part I, Note 5  to  the Consolidated Financial Statements.  This
 Amendment  also   includes  corresponding   textual  changes   in  Item   2,
 Management's Discussion and Analysis of  Financial Condition and Results  of
 Operations, Liquidity  and  Capital Resources  and  an addition  to  related
 information in Part II, Item 4, Controls and Procedures.  This Amendment has
 no  effect  on   the  Condensed  Consolidated   Balance  Sheets,   Condensed
 Consolidated Statements of Income, and Condensed Consolidated Statements  of
 Changes in Stockholders' Equity, and more specifically, does not affect  net
 income, earnings per share, total cash flows, current assets, total  assets,
 current liabilities,  total stockholders'  equity  or other  information  as
 presented in the Original Filing.

      Other information  contained herein  has not  been updated.  Therefore,
 this Amendment should be read together with other documents that the Company
 has filed  with the  Securities and  Exchange Commission  subsequent to  the
 filing of the  Original Filing. Information  in such  reports and  documents
 updates and supersedes certain information contained in this Amendment.  The
 filing of this Amendment shall not be deemed an admission that the  Original
 Filing, when made, included any known, untrue statement of material fact  or
 knowingly omitted to state a material fact necessary to make a statement not
 misleading.

             NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                 (UNAUDITED)



 Note 1 - Basis of Presentation

      The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements,
 including the notes thereto,  include the accounts  of First Cash  Financial
 Services,  Inc.  (the  "Company")  and  its  wholly owned  subsidiaries.  In
 addition the accompanying consolidated financial statements also include the
 accounts of  Cash & Go,  Ltd.,  a  Texas  limited  partnership,  which  owns
 financial services kiosks inside convenience stores.  The Company has a  50%
 ownership interest in the partnership,  which it has historically  accounted

 Effective December 31,  2003, when the  Company adopted FASB  Interpretation
 No. 46(R)  -  Consolidation of  Variable  Interest Entities,  the  Company's
 consolidated balance sheet includes the assets and liabilities of Cash & Go,
 Ltd.  The operating results of Cash & Go, Ltd. are included in the Company's
 consolidated operating results  effective for  accounting periods  beginning
 January 1, 2004. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have
 been eliminated.

      Such unaudited consolidated financial  statements are condensed and  do
 not include all  disclosures and  footnotes required  by generally  accepted
 accounting principles in the United States of America for complete financial
 statements.   Such interim  period financial  statements should  be read  in
 conjunction with the Company's  consolidated financial statements which  are
 included in the Company's December 31, 2003 Annual Report on Form 10-K.  The
 consolidated financial statements  as of March 31, 2004 and for the  periods
 ended March 31, 2004  and 2003  are unaudited, but in management's  opinion,
 include all adjustments  (consisting of only  normal recurring  adjustments)
 considered necessary  to present fairly the  financial position, results  of
 operations and cash flows for such  interim periods.  Operating results  for
 the period  ended  March 31,  2004 are  not  necessarily indicative  of  the
 results that may be expected for the full fiscal year.

      All share  amounts and  earnings per  share amounts  included in  these
 financial statements reflect a three-for-two stock split effective April  6,
 2004.


 Note 2 - Revolving Credit Facility

      The Company  maintains a  combined long-term  line of  credit with  two
 commercial lenders (the "Credit Facility").  The Credit Facility provides  a
 $25,000,000 long-term line  of credit  that matures  on April  15, 2006  and
 bears interest at the prevailing LIBOR rate (which was approximately 1.1% at
 March 31,  2004)  plus a  fixed  interest  rate margin  of  1.375%.  Amounts
 available under the  Credit Facility are  limited to 300%  of the  Company's
 earnings before income  taxes, interest, depreciation  and amortization  for
 the  trailing  twelve  months.   At  March 31,  2004,  the  Company  had  no
 outstanding amounts due under the facility and had $25,000,000 available for
 future borrowings. Under the  terms of the Credit  Facility, the Company  is
 required to  maintain  certain  financial ratios  and  comply  with  certain
 technical covenants.  The  Company was in  compliance with the  requirements
 and covenants of the Credit Facility as of  March 31, 2004 and May 4,  2004.
 The  Company  is required  to pay an annual commitment fee  of 1/8 of 1%  on
 the average  daily-unused portion of the  Credit  Facility  commitment.  The
 Company's Credit Facility contains provisions that will allow the Company to
 repurchase stock  and/or  pay  cash  dividends  within  certain  parameters.
 Substantially all  of  the unencumbered  assets  of the  Company  have  been
 pledged as collateral against indebtedness under the Credit Facility.

 Note 4 - Employee Stock Incentive Plans

      The Company  accounts  for its  employee  stock incentive  plans  under
 Accounting Principles  Board  (APB) Opinion  No.  25, Accounting  for  Stock
 Issued  to  Employees  and  the  related  interpretations  under   Financial
 Accounting Standards  Board (FASB)  Interpretation  No. 44,  Accounting  for
 Certain Transactions Involving  Stock Compensation.  Accordingly, no  stock-
 based employee compensation cost is reflected  in net income as all  options
 and warrants granted had an exercise price equal to the market value of  the
 underlying common stock on  the date of grant.  In accordance with SFAS  No.
 148,  Accounting for  Stock-Based Compensation - Transition and  Disclosure,
 the following table illustrates  the effect on net  income and earnings  per
 share as if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of
 SFAS No.  123,  Accounting  for  Stock-Based  Compensation,  to  stock-based
 employee compensation.

      During the period  from  January  1, 2004  through  March 31, 2004, the
 Company  issued 680,117 shares of common stock relating  to the exercise  of
 outstanding stock options and  warrants for an  aggregate exercise  price of
 $7,223,000, including income tax benefit.


 Note 5 - Restatement of the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows

      The Statements of Cash  Flows for the  three-month periods ended  March
 31, 2004  and 2003  have  been restated  to  correct the  classification  of
 certain transactions between sections of the Statements  of Cash Flows.  The
 Company determined that it had incorrectly classified the short-term advance
 loss provision as an investing activity  rather than an operating  activity.
 The effect of the adjustment to correct the misclassification is to increase
 cash  flows from  operating  activities and  to  decrease  cash  flows  from
 investing  activities  in  the  amounts  of $1,399,000,  and  $1,438,000 for
 the three-month periods  ended March 31, 2004  and  2003,  respectively.  In
 addition, the Company has reviewed its recording and classification of  cash
 flows  arising  from the forfeiture  and  subsequent sale of pawn collateral
 and  determined  that  investing cash flows  representing  a return of  pawn
 receivables  were  incorrectly  recorded  on the dates  of forfeiture rather
 than  on the dates  that the  forfeited  collateral  was sold.  Accordingly,
 the  previously  reported cash  flows related  to forfeited  collateral have
 been corrected  to  remove  the non-cash impact  of increases  and decreases
 in on-hand  inventories.  The  effect  of  the  adjustment  to  correct  the
 misclassification is to increase cash flows from investing activities and to
 decrease  cash  flows  from operating activities in the amounts  of $729,000
 and $870,000 for the three-month  periods  ended  March 31, 2004  and  2003,
 respectively.  The Company has also  reviewed the cash flow presentation  of
 the tax  benefit associated  with the  exercise of  employee stock  options.
 This amount was previously  included in the change  in current and  deferred
 taxes, a component of cash flows from operating activities.  In the restated
 Condensed Statements of Cash Flows, the  tax benefit is reported  separately
 as an adjustment to reconcile net income to net cash flows, which is also  a
 component of cash flows from operating activities.  Accordingly, there is no
 effect from  this  reclassification which  would  increase or  decrease  the
 totals from any section within the Condensed Statements of Cash Flows.

      A summary of the effects of these corrections are as follows:

 ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
          RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 GENERAL

      First Cash  Financial  Services,  Inc. (the  "Company")  is  a  leading
 provider of specialty consumer finance products.  The Company currently  has
 251 locations in  eleven U.S. states  and Mexico and  is the nation's  third
 largest publicly traded pawnshop operator.  The Company's pawn stores engage
 in both consumer finance  and retail sales activities  and are a  convenient
 source for small  consumer loans, advancing  money against pledged  tangible
 personal property  such as  jewelry, electronic  equipment, tools,  sporting
 goods and musical equipment.  The  pawn stores also retail  previously-owned
 merchandise acquired  through  collateral forfeitures  and  over-the-counter
 purchases from customers.   Many of the Company's  pawn stores offer  short-
 term,  unsecured advances ("short-term advances"), which  are also known  as
 payday loans.

      The Company also operates stand-alone check cashing/short-term  advance
 stores  in  several U.S.  states.  These  stores provide  a broad  range  of
 consumer financial services  products, including  check cashing,  short-term
 advances,  money order sales, money transfers and bill payment services.  In
 addition, the Company is a 50% partner in  Cash & Go, Ltd., a Texas  limited
 partnership, which  currently owns  and operates  40 kiosks  located  inside
 convenience stores, which offer short-term advances and check cashing.

                                         ======        ======         ======

      The Company's business plan is to continue to expand its operations  by
 opening both new check cashing/short-term advance stores and new pawn stores
 in selected  geographic markets.  In addition,  for the  three months  ended
 March 31,  2004, the  Company's 50%  owned joint  venture, Cash  & Go,  Ltd.
 operated a total of 40 kiosks located inside convenience stores in the state
 of Texas.  No kiosks were opened or closed during the quarter.

      For the  quarter ended  March 31,  2004,  the Company's  revenues  were
 derived 49% from merchandise sales, 48%  from service charges on pawn  loans
 and short-term advances, and 3% from other sources, primarily check  cashing
 fees.

      Although the Company has had significant  increases in revenues due  to
 new store openings in 2003 and 2004, the Company has also incurred increases
 in operating expenses attributable to the additional stores and increases in
 administrative expenses attributable to building  a management team and  the
 support personnel  required  by  the Company's  growth.  Operating  expenses
 consist of all  items directly  related to  the operation  of the  Company's
 stores, including  salaries  and  related payroll  costs,  rent,  utilities,
 equipment depreciation,  advertising,  property taxes,  licenses,  supplies,
 security and bad  debt and collection  expenses for both  check cashing  and
 short-term advances.  Administrative expenses  consist of items relating  to
 the operation  of  the  corporate office,  including  the  compensation  and
 benefit costs of corporate officers,  area supervisors and other  operations
 management, accounting  and  administrative  costs,  information  technology
 costs, liability and casualty insurance,  outside legal and accounting  fees
 and stockholder-related expenses.


 CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

      The preparation of financial  statements in conformity with  accounting
 principles generally  accepted  in the  United  States of  America  requires
 management to  make  estimates  and assumptions  that  affect  the  reported
 amounts of assets  and liabilities, and  related revenues  and expenses  and
 disclosure of  gain and  loss contingencies  at the  date of  the  financial
 statements.  Such estimates and assumptions are subject to a number of risks
 and uncertainties, which may cause actual results to differ materially  from
 the Company's estimates.   Both  the significant  accounting policies  which
 management believes are the most critical to aid in fully understanding  and
 evaluating  the  reported  financial  results  and  the  effects  of  recent
 accounting pronouncements have  been reported in  the Company's 2003  Annual
 Report on Form 10-K.


 RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 Three months ended March 31, 2004  compared to the three months ended  March
 31, 2003

      Total revenues increased 22% to $41,850,000 for the three months  ended
 March 31, 2004 ("the first quarter of 2004") as compared to $34,244,000  for
 the three months ended March  31, 2003 ("the first  quarter of 2003").   The
 change was comprised of an increase  in revenues of $2,568,000 generated  by
 the 61  new pawn  and check  cashing/short-term  advance stores  which  were
 opened since January 1, 2003, an increase of $4,005,000 at the stores  which
 were in operation  during all of  the first quarter  of 2003  and the  first
 quarter of 2004, an increase of  $1,424,000 related to the consolidation  of
 the 40  Cash & Go, Ltd. kiosks, net  of a decrease  in revenues of  $391,000
 from the four  stores closed  since January 1,  2003.   Same store  revenues
 increased 12% primarily due to increased consumer demand for short-term loan
 products and continued maturation of newer stores opened in 2002 and  prior.
 Of  the  $7,606,000  increase in  total  revenues, 44%,  or  $3,318,000, was
 attributable  to  increased  merchandise  sales,  54%,  or  $4,124,000,  was
 attributable to a  net increase in  service charges on  pawn and  short-term
 advances, and 2%  or $164,000 was  attributable to  other income,  comprised
 primarily  of check cashing fees.  A  significant component of the  increase
 in merchandise sales was non-retail bulk sales of scrap jewelry merchandise,
 which increased from $2,388,000 in the  first quarter of 2003 to  $3,439,000
 in the  first quarter  of 2004.  Service  charges from  short-term  advances
 increased from $9,519,000 in the first quarter of 2003 to $12,003,000 in the
 first quarter  of 2004,  while service  charges  from pawns  increased  from
 $6,494,000 in the first quarter of  2003 to $8,134,000 in the first  quarter
 of  2004.  As a percentage  of total revenues,  merchandise sales  decreased
 from 50% to 49% during the  first quarter of 2004  as compared to the  first
 quarter of  2003, service  charges  increased from  47%  to 48%,  and  check
 cashing fees and  other income  as a percentage  of total  revenues were  3%
 during both the first quarter of 2004 and the first quarter of 2003.

      The receivables balance  increased 27%  from $24,119,000  at  March 31,
 2003 to  $30,565,000  at  March 31,  2004.  Of the  $6,446,000 increase,  an
 increase of $2,807,000 was  attributable to the growth  in  loan balances at
 the 197  pawn and  check cashing/short-term  advance  stores which  were  in
 operation  as  of March 31, 2004  and 2003,  an increase  of $2,394,000  was
 attributable to the 50 new pawn and check cashing/short-term advance  stores
 opened since March 31, 2003, and an increase of $1,245,000 was  attributable
 to the  consolidation  of  the  40  Cash & Go,  Ltd. kiosks.  The  aggregate
 receivables balance at March 31, 2004  was comprised of $19,784,000 of  pawn
 loan receivables and $10,781,000 of short-term advance receivables, compared
 to $15,700,000 of pawn loan receivables and $8,419,000 of short-term advance
 receivables at March 31, 2003.

      Gross profit margins as  a percentage of  total merchandise sales  were
 41% during  the first  quarter of  2004  compared to  40% during  the  first
 quarter of 2003.   Retail merchandise  margins, which do  not  include scrap
 jewelry sales, were 45% over the same periods.

      Operating expenses  increased  17%  to  $16,239,000  during  the  first
 quarter of 2004 compared  to $13,911,000 during the  first quarter of  2003,
 primarily as a result  of the consolidation of  Cash & Go, Ltd.'s  operating
 results and the net addition of 57 pawn and check cashing/short-term advance
 stores  since  January 1, 2003, which is a 30% increase in store count.  The
 Company's net bad  debt expense  relating to  short-term advances  decreased
 from $1,438,000  in the first  quarter of 2003  to $1,399,000  in the  first
 quarter  of  2004.  As a  percentage of  short-term advance  service  charge
 revenues, net bad debts decreased from 15% during the first quarter of  2003
 to 12% during the first quarter of 2004 due to strong collections associated
 with  larger tax refunds  during the first quarter  of 2004.  Administrative
 expenses increased  18%  to $4,412,000  during  the first  quarter  of  2004
 compared to  $3,734,000 during  the first  quarter of  2003 primarily  as  a
 result of  the  consolidation  of  Cash  &  Go,  Ltd.'s  operating  results.
 Increased costs  for administrative/supervisory  compensation and  benefits,
 insurance, accounting and legal fees and other expenses necessary to support
 the Company's growth strategy  and increase in  store counts were  partially
 offset  by  a  $570,000  non-recurring  insurance  recovery  related  to  an
 unreimbursed employment-related insurance claim.  Interest expense decreased
 to  $43,000 in  the first  quarter of  2004 compared  to interest expense of
 $182,000 in the first quarter  of 2003 due to the reduction,  and subsequent
 elimination  of interest-bearing  debt  during  the first quarter  of  2004.
 Interest  income  decreased from $183,000  in the first quarter  of  2003 to
 $14,000  in the first quarter of 2004,  due primarily  to the elimination of
 interest income associated with the consolidation of Cash & Go, Ltd.

      For the first quarter of 2004 and 2003, the Company's effective federal
 income tax rate of 37% differed from the statutory tax rate of approximately
 34% primarily as a result of state and foreign income taxes.


 LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

      The Company's operations  and store  openings have  been financed  with
 funds generated from operations, bank and other borrowings, and the issuance
 of the Company's securities.

      The Company's Credit Facility provides a $25,000,000 long-term line  of
 credit that matures on April 15,  2006 and bears interest at the  prevailing
 LIBOR rate (which  was approximately 1.1%  at March 31,  2004) plus a  fixed
 interest rate margin of 1.375%. Amounts available under the Credit  Facility
 are limited to 300% of the Company's earnings before income taxes, interest,
 depreciation and amortization for the trailing twelve months.  At March  31,
 2004, the Company had no outstanding amounts due under the facility and  the
 Company had $25,000,000  available for borrowings.  Under the  terms of  the
 Credit Facility,  the  Company is  required  to maintain  certain  financial
 ratios and comply  with certain  technical  covenants.  The  Company was  in
 compliance with the requirements and covenants of the Credit Facility as  of
 March 31, 2004 and May 4,  2004.  The Company is  required to pay an  annual
 commitment  fee  of  1/8  of  1% on  the  average  daily-unused  portion  of
 the  Credit Facility  commitment.  The  Company's Credit  Facility  contains
 provisions that will allow the Company to repurchase stock  and/or pay  cash
 dividends within certain parameters.  Substantially all  of the unencumbered
 assets of the Company have been  pledged as collateral against  indebtedness
 under the Credit Facility.

      As of March 31, 2004, the  Company's primary sources of liquidity  were
 $19,482,000 in  cash  and  cash  equivalents,  $34,130,000  in  receivables,
 $14,467,000 in inventories  and $25,000,000  of available  and unused  funds
 under  the Company's  Credit Facility.  The Company had  working capital  of
 $65,546,000 as of March 31, 2004,  and total liabilities to equity ratio  of
 0.1 to 1.

      Certain transactions presented in the restated Condensed Statements  of
 Cash Flows for  the quarters ended  March 31, 2004  and 2003,  respectively,
 have been reclassified between certain sections  of the Condensed Statements
 of  Cash  Flows.  A summary of these reclassifications showing their  effect
 on the Condensed Statements  of  Cash Flows  is provided  in Note  5  to the
 Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

      The Company utilized positive cash flows from operations in the  three-
 month  2004  period  to fund  investing  and financing  activities primarily
 related  to  opening  new stores  and  the elimination  of  debt.  Net  cash
 provided by  operating activities  of the  Company during  the three  months
 ended March 31, 2004 was $6,666,000,  consisting primarily of net income  of
 $5,178,000 plus  non-cash  adjustments  for depreciation  of  $921,000,  the
 short-term advance loss provision  of $1,399,000, and  the tax benefit  from
 the exercise  of employee  stock  options of  $3,953,000  in addition  to  a
 decrease in  service  charge  receivables  and  inventory  of  $353,000  and
 $392,000, respectively, net of  a decrease in  accounts payable and  accrued
 expenses of $4,312,000, and a change in tax balances of $1,228,000. Net cash
 provided by investing  activities during the  three months  ended March  31,
 2004 was  $1,046,000, which  was primarily  comprised  of net  cash  inflows
 related to pawn receivable activity of $982,000 and a decrease in short-term
 advance receivable activity of $1,579,000, net of cash paid for fixed  asset
 additions of  $1,515,000. The  opening of  14 new  stores during  the  first
 quarter of  2004 contributed  significantly to  the  volume of  fixed  asset
 additions.  Net cash used by financing activities was $4,077,000 during  the
 three months ended March 31, 2004,  which primarily consisted of a  decrease
 in the Company's  debt of $6,000,000,  a purchase of  treasury stock in  the
 amount of  $1,347,000  and proceeds  from  exercises of  stock  options  and
 warrants of $3,270,000.

      For  purposes  of  its  internal  liquidity  assessments,  the  Company
 considers net  cash  changes  in pawn  receivables  and  short-term  advance
 receivables to be closely related  to operating cash flows.  For the  Three-
 Month 2004  Period the  total cash  flows from  operations were  $6,666,000,
 while net cash inflows  related to pawn  receivables and short-term  advance
 receivables were $982,000  and $1,579,000,  respectively.  The combined  net
 cash flows  from  operations and  pawn  and short-term  advance  receivables
 totaled $9,227,000  for the  Three-Month  2004  Period.  For the  comparable
 Three-Month 2003 Period, cash flows from operations were $7,346,000 and  net
 cash inflows related to pawn receivables and short-term advance  receivables
 were $1,794,000 and  $833,000,  respectively.  The combined  net cash  flows
 from  operations  and  pawn  and  short-term  advance  receivables   totaled
 $9,973,000 for the Three-Month 2003 Period.

      The profitability  and liquidity  of the  Company  is affected  by  the
 amount of  pawn  loans outstanding,  which  is  controlled in  part  by  the
 Company's lending decisions.  The Company is able to influence the frequency
 of pawn redemption by increasing or decreasing the amount loaned in relation
 to the  resale value  of  the pawned  property.   Tighter  credit  decisions
 generally result in smaller pawn loans  in relation to the estimated  resale
 value of  the  pledged  property and  can  thereby  decrease  the  Company's
 aggregate  pawn  loan  balance  and,  consequently,  decrease  pawn  service
 charges.  Additionally, small advances in relation to the pledged property's
 estimated resale value  tend to increase  pawn redemptions  and improve  the
 Company's liquidity.  Conversely, providing larger pawn loans in relation to
 the estimated resale value of the pledged property can result in an increase
 in the Company's pawn service charge income.  Also, larger average pawn loan
 balances can result in an increase in pawn forfeitures, which increases  the
 quantity of  goods  on hand  and,  unless the  Company  increases  inventory
 turnover, reduces the  Company's liquidity.   The  Company's renewal  policy
 allows customers to  renew pawns by  repaying all accrued  interest on  such
 pawns, effectively creating a new pawn transaction.

      The amount of short-term advances outstanding and related potential bad
 debt expense also affect the profitability and liquidity of the Company.  An
 allowance for losses is provided on  active short-term advances and  service
 charges receivable,  based upon  expected default  rates, net  of  estimated
 future recoveries of  previously defaulted short-term  advances and  service
 charges receivable.   The  Company considers  short-term advances  to be  in
 default if they are not repaid on the due date, and writes off the principal
 amount and service charges receivable as  of the default date, leaving  only
 active receivables in the  reported balances.  Net  defaults and changes  in
 the short-term advance allowance are charged  to bad debt expense, which  is
 included in operating expenses.

      In addition to these factors, merchandise  sales and the pace of  store
 expansions affect the  Company's liquidity.   Management believes that  cash
 generated from operations  will be sufficient  to accommodate the  Company's
 current  operations  for  Fiscal  2004.  The  Company  has   no  significant
 capital commitments.  The  Company currently has  no written commitments for
 additional borrowings or future  acquisitions; however, the Company  intends
 to continue to grow and may seek additional capital to facilitate expansion.

      While  the  Company  continually  looks  for,  and  is  presented  with
 potential  acquisition  candidates,  the  Company  has  no  definitive plans
 or  commitments  for  further  acquisitions.   The  Company  will   evaluate
 acquisitions,  if  any,  based  upon  opportunities,  acceptable  financing,
 purchase price, strategic  fit and  qualified management  personnel. If  the
 Company encounters an attractive opportunity  to acquire or open  additional
 new stores in the  near future, the Company  may seek additional  financing,
 the terms of which will be negotiated on a case-by-case basis.


 CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES THAT MAY AFFECT
 FUTURE RESULTS

 Forward-Looking Statements

      This release may contain forward-looking statements about the business,
 financial condition and  prospects of  First Cash  Financial Services,  Inc.
 Forward-looking statements can be identified  by the use of  forward-looking
 terminology such as "believes,"  "projects," "expects," "may,"  "estimates,"
 "will," "should,"  "plans,"  "intends,"  or "anticipates"  or  the  negative
 thereof, or  other  variations thereon,  or  comparable terminology,  or  by
 discussions  of  strategy.    Forward-looking  statements  in  this  release
 include,  without  limitation,  the  earnings  per  share  discussion,   the
 expectations of revenue growth and increased profitability, the  expectation
 for additional store openings, and the expectation for future operating cash
 flows.  These statements  are made to provide  the public with  management's
 assessment of the Company's  business.  Although  the Company believes  that
 the expectations  reflected in  forward-looking statements  are  reasonable,
 there can be no assurances that such expectations will prove to be accurate.
 Security holders are cautioned that such forward-looking statements  involve
 risks and uncertainties.  The  forward-looking statements contained in  this
 release speak  only  as of  the  date of  this  statement, and  the  Company
 expressly disclaims any obligation or undertaking to release any updates  or
 revisions to  any such  statement to  reflect any  change in  the  Company's
 expectations or any change  in events, conditions  or circumstance on  which
 any such statement is  based.  Certain factors  may cause results to  differ
 materially from those  anticipated by some  of the statements  made in  this
 release.  Such  factors are  difficult to predict  and many  are beyond  the
 control of the  Company, but may  include changes in  regional, national  or
 international economic conditions,  the ability  to open  and integrate  new
 stores, the  ability  to  maintain favorable  banking  relationships  as  it
 relates to short-term lending products, changes in governmental regulations,
 unforeseen litigation, changes in  interest rates, changes  in tax rates  or
 policies, changes  in  gold prices,  changes  in foreign  currency  exchange
 rates, future business decisions, and other uncertainties.

 Regulatory Changes

       Governmental action to  prohibit or restrict  short-term advances  has
 been advocated over the  past few years by  consumer-advocacy groups and  by
 media reports and stories.  The consumer groups and media stories  typically
 focus on the cost to a consumer  for that type of short-term advance,  which
 is higher than the  interest typically charged by  credit-card issuers to  a
 more creditworthy consumer.  The consumer groups and media stories typically
 characterize short-term  advance  activities as  abusive  toward  consumers.
 During the last  few years, legislation  has been introduced  in the  United
 States  Congress  and   in  certain  state   legislatures,  and   regulatory
 authorities have proposed or publicly addressed the possibility of proposing
 regulations, that would prohibit or restrict short-term advances.

      The  U.S.  Office  of  Comptroller  of  the  Currency  has  effectively
 eliminated the  ability  of  nationally  chartered  banks  to  establish  or
 maintain relationships with  loan servicers  in order  to make  out-of-state
 short-term advance loans. The Company does not currently maintain nor intend
 in the  future to  establish  loan-servicing relationships  with  nationally
 chartered banks.  The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, ("FDIC"), which
 regulates the ability of state chartered  banks to enter into  relationships
 with loan  servicers, enacted  new examiner  guidelines in  July 2003  under
 which such arrangements are permitted.  Texas is the only state in which the
 Company functions  as loan  servicer through  a  relationship with  a  state
 chartered bank, County Bank of Rehoboth Beach, Delaware, that is subject  to
 the  new  FDIC  examiner  guidelines.    The  ultimate  effect  of  the  new
 guidelines, which are currently being implemented, on the Company's  ability
 to offer  short term  advances in  Texas under  its current  loan  servicing
 arrangement with County Bank is unknown at this time.  If the implementation
 of the FDIC's new guidelines were to ultimately restrict the ability of  all
 or certain state  banks to maintain  relationships with  loan servicers,  it
 could have  a materially  adverse impact  on  the Company's  operations  and
 financial results.

      Legislation and regulatory  developments at a  state level continue  to
 affect consumer-lending activities.  While some states have recently enacted
 legislation that is favorable to short-term advance providers, other  states
 are restricting,  or  attempting  to restrict,  short-term  advance  lending
 activities. The Company intends to continue,  with others in the  short-term
 advance industry,  to oppose  legislative or  regulatory action  that  would
 prohibit or restrict short-term advances.  But if legislative or  regulatory
 action with that  effect were taken  at the state  level in  states such  as
 Texas, in which the Company has a significant number of stores, that  action
 could have a material  adverse effect on  the Company's short-term  advance-
 related activities and revenues.

      There can  be no  assurance that  additional local,  state, or  federal
 legislation will not be enacted or  that existing laws and regulations  will
 not be  amended,  which would  materially,  adversely impact  the  Company's
 operations and financial condition.

 Other

      Certain factors  may  cause results  to  differ materially  from  those
 anticipated by some of the statements made in this report.  Such factors are
 difficult to predict and many are beyond the control of the Company, but may
 include changes  in regional  or national  economic conditions,  changes  in
 competition from various sources including both financial services  entities
 and retail  businesses, the  ability to  integrate  new stores,  changes  in
 governmental regulations, unforeseen litigation, changes in capital markets,
 changes in  interest rates  or tax  rates, the  ability to  maintain a  loan
 servicing relationship  with  an  out-of-state bank  necessary  to  generate
 service charges  from  short-term  advances  in  the  Texas  market,  future
 business decisions,  changes in  gold prices,  changes in  foreign  currency
 exchange rates, other risks indicated in the Company's 2003 Annual Report to
 Stockholders and other uncertainties.


 ITEM 3.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

      Market risks relating to the Company's operations result primarily from
 changes in interest rates, gold prices  and foreign currency exchange  rates
 and are described in detail in the Company's 2003 Annual Report on Form  10-
 K.  The Company  does not engage in  speculative or leveraged  transactions,
 nor does  it  hold or  issue  financial instruments  for  trading  purposes.
 There have been  no material  changes to  the Company's  exposure to  market
 risks since December 31, 2003.


 ITEM 4.   CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

    (a) Subsequent  to  the filing  of the Company's original  Form 10-Q  for
        the  period ended  March 31,  2004,  the Company  discovered  certain
        errors in the  classification of certain transaction types  presented
        in  its  Statements of Cash Flows,  which  are  described  in  Note 5
        to these Condensed  Consolidated Financial Statements.  As a  result,
        the Company determined  that a significant deficiency existed in  its
        disclosure controls  surrounding  the  preparation  of the Statements
        of Cash Flows.  The Company  has taken steps to  improve the  control
        processes surrounding  the preparation and  review of the  Statements
        of Cash Flows. Specifically, key personnel involved in the  Company's
        financial  reporting  processes  have  undertaken  research  of  both
        authoritative guidance  and industry  practices in  order to  improve
        their understanding of cash flow presentation issues relevant to  the
        consumer finance  industry. In addition,  the Company has  documented
        and  implemented   additional  review  procedures   related  to   the
        preparation of  the Statements of  Cash Flows.   There were no  other
        significant  deficiencies,   and  therefore  there   were  no   other
        corrective actions taken.

        The  Company considered  the  impact of  the  significant  deficiency
        described above  on its  original evaluation  of disclosure  controls
        and procedures as of March  31, 2004, and in particular assessed  the
        magnitude of any actual or potential misstatement resulting from  the
        deficiency.  The Company determined that the magnitude of any  actual
        or  potential  misstatement was  limited  to  the  classification  of
        certain  transactions   presented  in   the  Condensed   Consolidated
        Statements of  Cash Flows and  did not affect  the Company's  general
        ledger  account  balances nor  its  prepared  Condensed  Consolidated
        Balance  Sheets,  Condensed Consolidated  Statements  of  Income,  or
        Notes   to   the   Condensed   Consolidated   Financial   Statements.
        Accordingly, under the supervision and with the participation of  the
        Company's  Chief  Executive  Officer  and  Chief  Financial  Officer,
        management  of the  Company has  evaluated the  effectiveness of  the
        design  and  operation  of  the  Company's  disclosure  controls  and
        procedures (as  defined in Rules  13a-15(e) and  15d-15(e) under  the
        Securities Exchange Act  of 1934) as of March  31, 2004.  Based  upon
        that  evaluation, the  Chief Executive  Officer and  Chief  Financial
        Officer  concluded  that,  as  of  March  31,  2004,  the   Company's
        disclosure controls and  procedures are effective in timely  alerting
        them to the material information relating to the Company required  to
        be included in its periodic filings with the Securities and  Exchange
        Commission.

    (b) There  has  been  no  significant  change in  the Company's  internal
        control over  financial reporting that  was identified in  connection
        with   management's  evaluation,   as  described   above,  that   has
        materially  affected, or is reasonably likely  to materially  affect,
        the Company's internal control over financial reporting.


                         PART II.  OTHER INFORMATION


 ITEM 1.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

      There have been no material developments in the litigation and
 arbitration "previously reported" in the Company's 2003 Annual Report
 to Stockholders filed on Form 10-K.


 ITEM 2.  CHANGES IN SECURITIES

      During the period from January 1, 2004 through May 4, 2004, the Company
 issued  709,400  shares  of  common  stock  relating  to  the  exercise   of
 outstanding stock warrants  for an  aggregate exercise  price of  $7,386,000
 (including income tax effect).

      During the period from January 1, 2004 through May 4, 2004, the Company
 issued  333,750  shares  of  common  stock  relating  to  the  exercise   of
 outstanding stock  options for  an aggregate  exercise price  of  $4,297,000
 (including income tax effect) and issued options to purchase 454,500  shares
 of common stock  at an  average exercise price  of $19.33,  expiring in  ten
 years.

      On March  9, 2004,  the  Board of  Directors  of First  Cash  Financial
 Services, Inc.  (the  "Company")  approved  a  three-for-two  split  of  the
 Company's common stock in the form of  a common stock dividend. As a  result
 of the stock split,  shareholders received one  additional common share  for
 every two shares held on the record date of March 22, 2004.

      The transactions  set  forth in  the  above paragraphs  were  completed
 pursuant to  either  Section 4(2)  of  the Securities  Act  or Rule  506  of
 Regulation D of the Securities Act.  With respect to issuances made pursuant
 to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act, the transactions did not involve  any
 public offering and were sold to a limited group of persons.  Each recipient
 either received  adequate  information  about the  Company  or  had  access,
 through employment  or other  relationships, to  such information,  and  the
 Company determined that each recipient had such knowledge and experience  in
 financial and business matters  that they were able  to evaluate the  merits
 and risks of an investment in the  Company.  With respect to issuances  made
 pursuant to Rule  506 of  Regulation D of  the Securities  Act, the  Company
 determined that each purchaser  was an "accredited  investor" as defined  in
 Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act.  All sales of the Company's securities
 were made by  officers of the  Company who received  no commission or  other
 remuneration for  the solicitation  of any  person  in connection  with  the
 respective  sales  of  securities  described  above.    The  recipients   of
 securities  represented  their  intention  to  acquire  the  securities  for
 investment only and not with a  view to or for  sale in connection with  any
 distribution thereof  and  appropriate legends  were  affixed to  the  share
 certificates and other instruments issued in such transactions.
