GREENVILLE, S.C.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--World Acceptance Corporation (NASDAQ: WRLD) today reported financial results for its second fiscal quarter and six months ended September 30, 2019.
Portfolio results
As previously disclosed, we sold our Mexico operations effective July 1, 2018. As a result of the sale, we have classified the Mexico business as discontinued operations, and the US business as continuing operations on the statements of operations for the applicable periods.
Gross loans outstanding in the US, which are reported as continuing operations, increased to $1.27 billion as of September 30, 2019, a 13.1% increase from the $1.13 billion of gross loans outstanding as of September 30, 2018. This is compared to a 10.0% increase for the comparable period ended September 30, 2018. Year-to-date, the gross loans outstanding in the US increased 13.0% as of September 30, 2019, compared to an increase of 12.2% for the comparable period ended September 30, 2018.
Our customer base increased by 11.8% year-over-year as of September 30, 2019, compared to 7.0% growth for the twelve months ended September 30, 2018. Year-to-date, our customer base increased 10.7% from March 31, 2019, compared to an increase of 8.3% for the same period ended September 30, 2018. During the quarter ended September 30, 2019, the number of unique borrowers in the portfolio increased by 4.8% compared to an increase of 5.5% during the quarter ended September 30, 2018.
As of September 30, 2019, we had 1,234 branches open. For branches open for both years, same store gross loans increased 11.3% in the twelve months ended September 30, 2019, compared to a 10.0% increase for the same period ended September 30, 2018. For branches open in both years, the customer base on September 30, 2019, increased 9.3% year-over-year compared to a 6.5% increase for the twelve months ended September 30, 2018. Additionally, for the branches open for both years, the average customer base per store increased by 8.3% year-over-year.
Second quarter refinance loan volume increased 12.1% over the same quarter of the prior year compared to a 2.6% increase in the second quarter of fiscal 2019 over the same quarter of the prior year. This is the largest refinance loan volume in the second quarter since fiscal 2015. Second quarter former customer loan volume increased 4.9% over the same quarter of the prior year compared to a 2.4% increase in the second quarter of fiscal 2019 over the same quarter of the prior year. Second quarter new customer loan volume increased 3.6% over the same quarter of the prior year compared to a 13.4% increase in the second quarter of fiscal 2019 over the same quarter of the prior year. Individually, the second quarter former and new customer loan volumes were the largest on Company record.
Three-month financial results
Net income from continuing operations for the second quarter of fiscal 2020 decreased $9.8 million, or 70.0%, to $4.2 million when compared to net income of $14.1 million for the same quarter of the prior year. The primary driver in the decrease of net income is a $12.6 million increase in provision for losses, when comparing the second quarter of fiscal 2020 to the second quarter of fiscal 2019. We continue to believe the significant portfolio growth, discussed above, will negatively impact the provision as long as there is significant growth in new customers, relative to the whole portfolio (more details below). We expect the earnings from investment in new customers over the last several quarters to exceed our cost of capital and be in line with long-term expectations.
Net income from continuing operations per diluted share decreased 66.0% to $0.51 in the second quarter of fiscal 2020 when compared to $1.51 for the same quarter of the prior year. Net income for the second quarter of fiscal 2020 decreased to $4.2 million from the $14.5 million reported for the same quarter of the prior year. Net income per diluted share decreased to $0.51 in the second quarter of fiscal 2020 from $1.56 in the prior year quarter.
Earnings per share for the quarter benefited from our share repurchase program. The Company repurchased 1,251,103 shares of its common stock on the open market at an aggregate purchase price of approximately $168.2 million during the quarter. This follows a repurchase of 141,077 shares in the first quarter of fiscal year 2020 at an aggregate purchase price of approximately $21.8 million. During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2019, the Company repurchased 665,020 shares at an aggregate cost of $74.5 million. The Company had approximately 7.2 million common shares outstanding excluding approximately 0.8 million unvested restricted shares as of September 30, 2019.
Total revenues from continuing operations for the second quarter increased to $141.6 million, an 11.4% increase from the $127.1 million reported for the same quarter of the prior year. The revenues from the 1,154 branches open throughout both quarterly periods increased by 10.5%. Interest and fee income increased 11.1%, from $113.5 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2019 to $126.1 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2020, primarily due to an increase in average earning loans. Insurance and other income increased by 13.6% to $15.5 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2020 compared to $13.6 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2019 primarily due to the increased loan volume.
Accounts that were 61 days or more past due increased to 6.4% on a recency basis at September 30, 2019, compared to 5.8% at September 30, 2018. Accounts that were 61 days or more past due on a contractual basis increased to 8.0% at September 30, 2019, compared to 7.5% at September 30, 2018. Our allowance for loan losses compared to net loans was 10.8% at September 30, 2019, compared to 9.6% at September 30, 2018. Recent portfolio acquisitions had a significant impact on delinquency as of the end of the quarter. We have included a table of both the total portfolio delinquency as well as the portfolio excluding acquired accounts that have not paid off, charged-off or refinanced as of the end of the quarter.

Net charge-offs as a percentage of average net loans on an annualized basis increased from 14.4% in the second quarter of fiscal 2019 to 16.8% in the second quarter of fiscal 2020. The provision for loan losses in the second quarter of fiscal 2020 increased by $12.6 million, or 31.2%, when compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2019. Net charge-offs in the second quarter of fiscal 2020 increased $9.8 million when compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2019. There was a $0.4 million increase in the provision due to an increase during the quarter of accounts 91 days past due when comparing the second quarter of fiscal 2020 to the second quarter of fiscal 2019. The Company also recorded an additional $5.0 million of provision due to the higher front-end delinquency, which was largely driven by acquisitions as illustrated above.
The rapid growth of the portfolio during the prior two years has dramatically shifted the portfolio weighting of customers who are new to the Company. As of September 30, 2019, $456.5 million of the total loan portfolio is with customers who have been with the company less than two years, a 56.0% increase from the average of the fiscal year 2016-2018 second quarter portfolios. During that same period, the portfolio of customers with more than 2 years tenure has increased approximately 11.3% to $817.7 million. Both the growth in the less than two year tenure portfolio and the increase in weighting of that population in the portfolio mix have contributed to the increase in delinquencies and charge-offs. The tables below illustrate the changes in the portfolio as well as the relative impact on charge-offs over the last five years.

As illustrated above, charge-off rates for customers new to the Company are up moderately in the second quarter relative to the same period last year, but generally in line with the prior four years. For comparison, both customer groups performed similarly or better than the same period of fiscal 2018, but had a higher overall charge-off rate, due to the increased weighting of customers who are new to the Company. We continue to expect the return on these pools of customers to exceed our cost of capital and be in line with our long-term performance expectations.
General and administrative (“G&A”) expenses amounted to $78.5 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2020 compared to $64.9 million in the same quarter of the prior fiscal year. As a percentage of revenues, G&A expenses increased from 51.1% during the second quarter of fiscal 2019 to 55.4% during the second quarter of fiscal 2020. G&A expenses per average open branch increased by 17.1% when comparing the two fiscal quarters, primarily due to an increase in personnel expense.
Personnel expense increased $9.7 million, or 24.3%, during the second quarter of fiscal 2020, as compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2019. Approximately $6.7 million of the increase is due to additional share-based compensation associated with the long-term incentive program and director equity awards, as previously disclosed. Salary and benefit expense increased approximately $3.4 million, or 10.5% when comparing the two quarterly periods ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, as a result of an increase in headcount. Our headcount as of September 30, 2019, increased 10.2% compared to September 30, 2018, primarily driven by acquisitions during the twelve months ended September 30, 2019. However, our accounts per employee have increased by approximately 3.0% over the same twelve months. Additionally, for branches open for both years, the number of active customers per store at the end of the second quarter increased 8.3% year-over-year.
Interest expense for the quarter ended September 30, 2019, increased by $2.2 million, or 52.2%, from the corresponding quarter of the previous year. The increase in interest expense is due to a 76.8% increase in the average debt outstanding, from $237.4 million to $419.8 million for the quarters ended September 30, 2018 and 2019, respectively. The increase due to average debt was offset by a reduction in the benchmark interest rate and interest margin on the credit facility. The Company’s debt to equity ratio increased to 1.3:1 at September 30, 2019, from 0.4:1 at September 30, 2018.
Other key return ratios for the second quarter of fiscal 2020 included a 6.0% return on average assets and a return on average equity of 10.8% (both on a trailing 12-month basis).
Six-month results
In accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the US, we recognized a $31.3 million cumulative foreign currency translation loss in the first quarter of fiscal 2019, as a result of classifying our Mexico operations as held for sale. Due to this impairment in the prior year, net income for the six-months ended September 30, 2019, increased $19.8 million to $12.8 million compared to the $7.0 million loss reported for the same period of the prior year. This resulted in net income of $1.50 per diluted share for the six months ended September 30, 2019, compared to the net loss of $0.75 per diluted share in the prior year period.
Total revenues in the US for the first six-months of fiscal 2020 increased 12.0% to $280.0 million compared to $249.9 million during the corresponding period of the previous year. Annualized net charge-offs as a percent of average net loans increased from 14.7% during the first six-months of fiscal 2019 to 16.6% for the first six-months of fiscal 2020.
Other matters
As previously disclosed, we retained outside legal counsel and forensic accountants, upon receipt of an anonymous letter regarding compliance matters, to conduct an investigation of our operations in Mexico. The investigation focuses on the legality under the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and certain local laws of certain payments related to loans, the maintenance of the Company’s books and records associated with such payments, and the treatment of compensation matters for certain employees. We voluntarily contacted the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and the U.S. Department of Justice (“DOJ”) in June 2017 to advise both agencies that an investigation was underway. We are committed to compliance with applicable laws and regulations and intend to cooperate fully with both the SEC and the DOJ.
