GREENVILLE, S.C.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--July 27, 2022--World Acceptance Corporation (NASDAQ: WRLD) today reported financial results for its first quarter of fiscal 2023 and three months ended June 30, 2022.
First quarter highlights
During its first quarter, the World Acceptance Corporation experienced exceptional growth in both loan balances and customer base even while tightening our underwriting at the beginning of the quarter. While this growth initially depresses current earnings due to the day one provisioning for anticipated credit losses under the current accounting standards, it positions the company well for the future as these customers continue to generate revenue over the long term.
Highlights from the first quarter include:
Portfolio results
Gross loans outstanding increased to $1.64 billion as of June 30, 2022, a 34.2% increase from the $1.22 billion of gross loans outstanding for the period ended June 30, 2021. During the most recent quarter, gross loans outstanding increased 7.8%, or $119.0 million, from Q4 fiscal 2022 compared to an increase of 10.7%, or $118.4 million, in the comparable quarter of the prior year. During the quarter, we saw an increase in borrowing from new, current and former customers that exceeded comparable pre-pandemic volumes. We have seen increased demand for new customer applications since the third quarter of fiscal 2022. The borrowing increase was driven by an increase in applications under tightened underwriting standards initiated during the third quarter of fiscal 2022. Underwriting was tightened further in April for the current fiscal year.
The following table includes the volume of gross loan origination balances, excluding tax advance loans, by customer type for the following comparative quarterly periods:
|
Q1 FY 2023 |
|
Q1 FY 2022 |
|
Q1 FY 2021 |
|
New Customers |
$75,263,048 |
|
$58,956,364 |
|
$17,737,020 |
|
Former Customers |
$110,262,220 |
|
$104,117,107 |

|
Refinance Customers |
$746,840,769 |
|
$595,277,770 |
|
$412,496,734 |
Our customer base increased by 11.4% during the twelve-month period ended as of June 30, 2022, compared to a decrease of 6.5% for the comparable period ended June 30, 2021. During the quarter ended June 30, 2022, the number of unique borrowers in the portfolio increased by 0.2% compared to a decrease of 1.0% during the quarter ended June 30, 2021. As a result of the expanded emphasis on our larger loan offerings, the average gross loan balance increased 20.8% during the twelve-month period ended June 30, 2022, compared to June 30, 2021. As a result of underwriting changes over the past several quarters, the number of new customer loans originated during the quarter declined 27-30% when compared to the most recent pre-pandemic Q1 levels as the increased credit quality requirements resulted in a 28-31% lower book-to-look rate when compared to the same periods.
As of June 30, 2022, the Company had 1,146 open branches. For branches open throughout both periods, same store gross loans increased 38.2% in the twelve-month period ended June 30, 2022, compared to an increase of 16.4% for the twelve-month period ended June 30, 2021. For branches open throughout both periods, the customer base over the twelve-month period ended June 30, 2022, increased 14.6% compared to a decrease of 5.1% for the twelve months ended June 30, 2021.
Three-month financial results
Net income for the first quarter of fiscal 2023 decreased by $24.6 million to an $8.8 million loss from $15.8 million for the same quarter of the prior year. Net income per diluted share decreased to $1.53 loss per share in the first quarter of fiscal 2023 from $2.44 per share for the same quarter of the prior year. Net income was significantly impacted by an increase in the day one provision for credit losses under the accounting standards that is directly related to the growth and the impact of seasonality on the expected loss rates. Net income adjusted for the impact of the change in the allowance for credit losses but including the impact of recognized net credit losses was $6.6 million for the current quarter compared to $20.5 million in the same quarter of the prior year. Adjusted net income per diluted share decreased to $1.15 per share in the first quarter of fiscal 2023 from $3.17 per share for the same quarter of the prior year. We believe this provides additional insight into our operations and profitability in periods of substantial growth and provides additional information regarding the expected loss rates due to credit normalization and seasonality. See further discussion on the current quarter provision and impact of current expected credit loss below.
The Company repurchased 73,643 shares of its common stock on the open market at an aggregate purchase price of approximately $14.3 million during the first quarter of fiscal 2023. This is in addition to repurchase of 589,533 shares in fiscal 2022 at an aggregate purchase price of approximately $111.1 million and the repurchase of 1,129,875 shares in fiscal 2021 at an aggregate purchase price of approximately $102.4 million. The Company had approximately 5.7 million common shares outstanding, excluding approximately 550,000 unvested restricted shares, as of June 30, 2022. As of June 30, 2022, the Company had the ability to repurchase approximately $1.1 million of additional shares under its current share repurchase program and, subject to board approval, could repurchase approximately $14.2 million of shares under the terms of its debt facilities.
Total revenues for the first quarter of fiscal 2023 increased to $157.6 million, a 21.5% increase from $129.7 million for the same quarter of the prior year. This was driven by an increase in average gross earning loans (total gross loans less gross loans 60 days contractually past due and tax advances) of 29.7%. Interest and fee income increased 19.3%, from $109.2 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2022 to $130.2 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2023 due to an increase in loans outstanding. Insurance income increased by 37.2% to $17.0 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2023 compared to $12.4 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2022. The large loan portfolio increased from 46.0% of the overall portfolio as of June 30, 2021, to 53.4% as of June 30, 2022. This resulted in lower interest and fee yields but higher insurance sales in the most recent quarter, given that the sale of insurance products is limited to large loans in several states in which we operate. Other income increased by 28.3% to $10.3 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2022 compared to $8.1 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021. Other income includes a $3.1 million bargain purchase gain during the current quarter.
On April 1, 2020, the Company replaced its incurred loss methodology with a current expected credit loss ("CECL") methodology to accrue for expected losses. This change in accounting methodology requires us to create a larger provision for credit losses on the day we originate the loan compared to the prior methodology. The provision for credit losses increased $55.6 million to $85.8 million from $30.3 million when comparing the first quarter of fiscal 2023 to the first quarter of fiscal 2022. The table below itemizes the key components of the CECL allowance and provision impact during the quarter.
The change in the allowance during the quarter was significantly impacted by both growth and changes in expected loss rates on our performing loans. The three most important factors impacting the expected loss rates on performing loans are recent actual loss performance, changes in mix of the portfolio tenure, and a seasonality factor. The seasonality factor had the most significant impact on the expected loss rates during the quarter, resulting in a 14.5% increase in the portfolio expected loss rates or approximately $13.4 million. The table below includes the seasonality factor for each quarter end.

Expected loss rates by tenure bucket also increased due to actual loss rates increasing as credit normalizes. This was offset to some degree by a shift in portfolio mix to more tenured customers.
Net charge-offs for the quarter increased $40.3 million, from $24.1 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2022 to $64.4 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2023. Net charge-offs as a percentage of average net loan receivables on an annualized basis increased from 11.4% in the first quarter of fiscal 2022 to 22.3% in the first quarter of fiscal 2023. Annualized net charge-offs were 18.3% for the first quarter of fiscal 2021. The increase in delinquency and charge-offs were expected due to the increase in new and shorter tenured customers over the last twelve months.
Accounts 61 days or more past due increased to 6.9% on a recency basis at June 30, 2022, compared to 4.0% at June 30, 2021, and 5.7% at June 30, 2020. Total delinquency on a recency basis increased to 11.2% at June 30, 2022, compared to 6.7% at June 30, 2021, and 8.3% at June 30, 2020. Our allowance for credit losses as a percent of net loans receivable was 13.0% at June 30, 2022, compared to 10.9% at June 30, 2021, and 14.2% at June 30, 2020. The increase in delinquency was expected given the increase in new, shorter tenured borrowers in recent quarters.
The table below is updated to use the customer tenure based methodology that aligns with our CECL methodology. After experiencing rapid portfolio growth during fiscal years 2019 and 2020, primarily in new customers, our gross loan balance experienced pandemic related declines in fiscal 2021 before rebounding during fiscal 2022. The tables below illustrate the changes in the portfolio weighting.
While the mix of less than two year customer balances is relatively consistent with June 30, 2021, there has been a significant increase in the shortest tenured customers within this cohort. The 0-5 month customer bucket has increased from 8.5% of the overall portfolio as of June 30, 2021, to 11.9% of the portfolio as of June 30, 2022. The 0-5 month customer is our riskiest customer.
General and administrative (“G&A”) expenses decreased $0.5 million, or 0.7%, to $72.9 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2023 compared to $73.4 million in the same quarter of the prior fiscal year. As a percentage of revenues, G&A expenses decreased from 56.6% during the first quarter of fiscal 2022 to 46.2% during the first quarter of fiscal 2023. G&A expenses per average open branch increased by 3.3% when comparing the first quarter of fiscal 2023 to the first quarter fiscal 2022.
Personnel expense decreased $1.1 million, or 2.3%, during the first quarter of fiscal 2023 as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2022. Salary expense increased approximately $1.6 million, or 5.6%, in the quarter ended June 30, 2022, compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2021. Our headcount as of June 30, 2022, increased 3.3% compared to June 30, 2021. Benefit expense decreased approximately $0.4 million, or 4.0%, when comparing the quarterly periods ended June 30, 2022 and 2021. Incentive expense decreased $2.1 million, or 17.4%, in the first quarter of fiscal 2023 compared to first quarter of fiscal 2022.
Occupancy and equipment expense decreased $0.4 million, or 2.7%, when comparing the quarterly periods ended June 30, 2022 and 2021. The prior year includes a $0.3 million write down of signage as a result of rebranding our offices in the prior year fourth quarter and we did not have any similar expense this year.
Advertising expense decreased $1.6 million, or 41.3%, in the first quarter of fiscal 2023 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2022 due to decreased spending on new customer acquisition programs.
Other expense increased $2.6 million, or 30.0%, in the first quarter of fiscal 2023 compared to the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022.
Interest expense for the quarter ended June 30, 2022, increased by $5.7 million, or 103.1%, from the corresponding quarter of the previous year. Interest expense increased due to an increase in average debt outstanding and a 20.0% increase in the effective interest rate from 5.0% to 6.0%. The average debt outstanding increased from $420.2 million to $741.7 million when comparing the quarters ended June 30, 2021 and 2022. The Company’s debt to equity ratio increased to 2.2:1 at June 30, 2022, compared to 1.2:1 at June 30, 2021. As of June 30, 2022, the Company had $777.0 million of debt outstanding, net of unamortized debt issuance costs related to the unsecured senior notes payable.
Other key return ratios for the first quarter of fiscal 2023 included a 2.5% return on average assets and a return on average equity of 7.5% (both on a trailing twelve-month basis).
Non-GAAP financial measures
From time-to-time the Company uses certain financial measures derived on a basis other than generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), primarily by excluding from a comparable GAAP measure certain items the Company does not consider to be representative of its actual operating performance. Such financial measures qualify as “non-GAAP financial measures” as defined in SEC rules. The Company uses these non-GAAP financial measures in operating its business because management believes they are less susceptible to variances in actual operating performance that can result from the excluded items and other infrequent charges. The Company may present these financial measures to investors because management believes they are useful to investors in evaluating the primary factors that drive the Company’s core operating performance and provide greater transparency into the Company’s results of operations. However, items that are excluded and other adjustments and assumptions that are made in calculating these non-GAAP financial measures are significant components to understanding and assessing the Company’s financial performance. Such non-GAAP financial measures should be evaluated in conjunction with, and are not a substitute for, the Company’s GAAP financial measures. Further, because these non-GAAP financial measures are not determined in accordance with GAAP and are, thus, susceptible to varying calculations, any non-GAAP financial measures, as presented, may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.
For purposes of assessing performance, the Company will adjust earnings to remove the impact of the change in the allowance for credit losses but including the impact of recognized net credit losses. The Company believes this measure improves the compatibility of our results to peer companies who use varying methods to determine their allowance for credit losses under the CECL. The measure also normalizes earnings for the impact of growth, seasonality and periods of volatility in expected loss rates.
This measure has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for GAAP earnings or other income statement data prepared in accordance with GAAP. The following table reconciles GAAP net income (loss) to Adjusted net income (loss):
