On October 30, 2015, Aaron's disclosed to investors that nine months earlier, in February 2015, Progressive Finance Holdings, LLC, the Company's most profitable subsidiary, had lost two critical data feeds used to determine customers' leasing qualifications.  Specifically, the loss of data caused the Company to experience "higher bad debt expense and merchandise write offs" and delayed its "ability to identify and begin collections on certain delinquent accounts." 

On these disclosures, the Company's share price fell $8.88, or 26.47%, to close at $24.67 on October 30, 2015.
