On May 15, 2024, the Board of Directors of World Acceptance Corporation (the “Company”) approved a share repurchase program authorizing the Company to repurchase up to $20.0 million of its outstanding common stock inclusive of any amount that remains available for repurchase under prior repurchase authorizations. The timing and actual number of shares repurchased will depend on a variety of factors, including the stock price, corporate and regulatory requirements, available funds, alternative uses of capital, restrictions under the Revolving Credit Agreement, and other market and economic conditions.
