World Acceptance Corporation reported strong Q2 earnings, exceeding estimates by $1.14 per share, driven by conservative underwriting and improved credit performance. The company tightened lending standards, resulting in an 18% drop in new customer originations and a 5% decline in total customers, focusing on more reliable borrowers. Delinquency rates improved and reserves were prudently built to 9% of loans, positioning the company defensively against economic risks. Shares trade at 12 times earnings with ongoing buybacks reducing share count by 10.5% year-over-year, leading to a hold rating due to limited upside in valuation multiples.
