Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
 
To the Plan Administrator
World Acceptance Corporation Retirement Savings Plan:
 
We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits of World Acceptance Corporation Retirement Savings Plan (the Plan) as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the related statements of changes in net assets available for benefits for the years then ended.  These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan’s management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
 
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
 
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of World Acceptance Corporation Retirement Savings Plan as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the changes in its net assets available for benefits for the years then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
 
Our audits were conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole.  The supplemental Schedule H, Line 4i- schedule of assets (held at end of year) as of December 31, 2011 is presented for the purposes of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial statements but is supplementary information required by the Department of Labor’s Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974.  This supplemental schedule is the responsibility of the Plan’s management.  The supplemental schedule has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic 2011 financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

RETIREMENT SAVINGS PLAN
 
Notes to Financial Statements
 
December 31, 2011 and 2010
 
(1)
Description of Plan
 
The following description of the World Acceptance Corporation Retirement Savings Plan (the Plan) provides only general information. Participants should refer to the plan agreement for a more complete description of the Plan’s provisions.
 
 
(a)
General
 
The Plan, which was formed in February 1993, is a defined-contribution plan and is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (ERISA). On January 1 and July 1 of each year, employees of World Acceptance Corporation (the Plan Sponsor or Employer), who meet certain eligibility requirements, may elect to become participants in the Plan.  Reliance Trust Company (“Reliance”) is the Plan’s trustee.  However, Reliance is only the custodian of the World Acceptance Corporation Common Stock.  The Standard Insurance Company (“Standard”) is the custodian of all other Plan assets.
 
 
(b)
Administrative Costs
 
Substantially all administrative costs of the Plan are paid by the Plan.
 
 
(c)
Contributions
 
The Plan provides for participant contributions on a pretax compensation reduction basis. Participants may elect to contribute to the Plan by deferring up to 100% of annual compensation up to specified maximum amounts.  The Plan Sponsor matches specified percentages of employee contributions, as determined by the Employer’s board of directors. The Employer discretionary percentage for 2011 and 2010 was 50% of the employee’s contributions, up to a maximum of 6% of compensation. The Plan Sponsor may also contribute a discretionary non-elective Employer contribution as determined annually by the board of directors.
 
The Plan adopted changes related to the Economic Growth and Tax Relief Reconciliation Act of 2001, which allows certain participants a $5,500 catch-up contribution in 2011 and 2010.  Catch-up contributions totaled $42,844 in 2011 and $38,845 in 2010.
 
 
(d)
Participant Accounts
 
Each participant’s account is credited with the participant’s contribution and the Employer’s matching contribution. Discretionary Employer contributions are allocated to individual participant accounts based on the proportion of each participant’s annual compensation, as defined by the Plan, compared to the total annual compensation of all participants. Investment income is allocated to the individual participant accounts based on the proportion of each participant’s account balance compared to the total balance within each fund.  The benefit to which a participant is entitled is the benefit that can be provided from the participant’s vested account.

December 31, 2011 and 2010
 
 
(e)
Vesting
 
Participants are immediately vested in their voluntary contribution plus earnings thereon. Vesting of Employer contributions is based on years of continuous service. A participant is 100% vested after six years of credited service, according to the following schedule:
 
   
Percent of
   
nonforfeitable
Years of service

Less than 2
 
0%

20%
3    
 
40%

80%
6 or more
 
100%
 
Notwithstanding the aforementioned, upon reaching normal retirement age or upon death or disability, participants become 100% vested.
 
 
(f)
Investment Options
 
A participant may direct employee contributions in 1% increments in a variety of investment options.  Participants may make changes in their investment elections at any time. Participants may change their deferral percentage no more than four times annually.
 
 
(g)
Participant Loans Receivable
 
The Plan allows participants to borrow from their fund accounts a minimum of $1,000 up to a maximum equal to the lesser of $50,000 or 50% of their vested account balance.  Loan transactions are treated as deductions from participant accounts and accounted for separately.  Loan terms range from 1 to 5 years or up to 10 years for the purchase of a primary residence.  The loans are secured by the balance in the participant’s account and bear interest that is commensurate with local prevailing rates as determined quarterly by the Plan administrator.
 
 
(h)
Payment of Benefits
 
Participants are entitled to receive a distribution of their vested accounts upon the occurrence of retirement, death, total and permanent disability, or termination of employment for any other reason. Vested participants are also entitled to leave their benefits in the Plan until retirement. The method of payment is a lump-sum distribution.
 
 
(i)  
Forfeitures
 
Forfeitures are used to reduce employer contributions to the Plan.   Forfeitures used as a reduction of employer contributions were $42,985 and $37,935 in 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
 
 
(a)
Basis of Presentation
 
 
The financial statements have been prepared on an accrual basis of accounting in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
 
 
(b)
Investments
 
 
At December 31, 2011 and 2010, the Plan’s investments included money market funds, pooled separate accounts, World Acceptance Corporation (“Company”) common stock and the Stable Asset Fund.  Pooled separate accounts and Company common stock are stated at net asset value based principally on quoted market prices.  The Stable Asset Fund represents a deposit administration contract.  See Note 6 “Deposit Administration Contract” for a further description of this contract.   Money market funds are stated at net asset value.  Purchases and sales are recorded on a trade-date basis.  Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis.  Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
 
 
 
As described in Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 946-210, investment contracts held by a defined contribution plan are required to be reported at fair value with an additional line item showing an adjustment of fully benefit-responsive contracts from fair value to contract value.

 
(c)
Participant Loans Receivable
 
 
Participant loans are carried at their unpaid principal balance.
 
 
(d)
Contribution Refund
 
 
Refunds payable to participants at December 31, 2011 and 2010 were $74,698 and $72,024, respectively. These refunds were due to excess contributions, which were refunded to participants in 2012 for the year ended December 31, 2011 and in 2011 for the year ended December 31, 2010.
 
 
(e)
Payment of Benefits
 
 
Benefits are recorded when paid. On termination of service, a participant will become eligible to receive a lump-sum amount equal to the value of his or her vested account balance.
 
 
(f)
Use of Estimates
 
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets, liabilities, and changes therein and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
 
(g)
Investment Risk
 
 
The Plan provides for various pooled separate account investment options in stocks, bonds and fixed income securities, as well as direct common stock investments and a deposit administration contract.

Notes to Financial Statements
 
December 31, 2011 and 2010
 
 
Investment securities are exposed to various risks such as interest rate, market, and credit risks. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investment securities, it is at least reasonably possible that changes in the values of investment securities will occur in the near term and that such changes could materially affect participants’ account balances and the amounts reported in the statement of net assets available for benefits.
 
 
(h)
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
 
Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements
 
 
In May 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2011-04, Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurements and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs, (ASU 2011-04). ASU 2011-04 amended ASC 820, to converge the fair value measurement guidance in GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs). Some of the amendments clarify the application of existing fair value measurement requirements, while other amendments change a particular principle in ASC 820. In addition, ASU 2011-04 requires additional fair value disclosures. The amendments are to be applied prospectively and are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. Plan management is currently evaluating the effect that the provisions of ASU 2011-04 will have on the Plan’s’ financial statements.
 
(3)
Plan Termination
 
Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, the Company has the right under the Plan to discontinue its contributions at any time and to terminate the Plan subject to the provisions of ERISA. In the event of plan termination, participants will become 100% vested in their accounts.
 
(4)
Tax Status
 
The Plan has adopted a prototype plan designed by PFPC, Inc.  The prototype plan obtained an opinion letter dated March 31, 2008, which states that the form of the plan identified as a prototype non-standardized profit sharing plan with CODA is acceptable under Section 401 of the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code") for use by employers for the benefit of their employees.  The Plan has been amended since adopting the prototype plan, however, the Plan administrator believes that the Plan is currently designed and being operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of the Code and believes that the Plan continues to qualify and to operate as designed.
 
U.S. generally accepted accounting principles require plan management to evaluate tax positions taken by the plan and recognize a tax liability (or asset) if the Plan has taken an uncertain position that more likely than not would not be sustained upon examination by the Internal Revenue Service.  The Plan administrator has analyzed the tax positions taken by the Plan, and has concluded that as of December 31, 2011, there are no uncertain positions taken or expected to be taken that would require recognition of a liability (or asset) or disclosure in the financial statements.  The Plan is subject to routine audits by taxing jurisdictions; however, there are currently no audits for any tax periods in progress.  The Plan administrator believes it is no longer subject to income tax examinations for years prior to 2008.

During the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, the Plan’s investments (including gains and losses on investments bought and sold, as well as held during the year) depreciated and appreciated in value by $755,497 and $3,146,618, respectively, as follows:
 
   
2011

    623,900       652,573  
    $ (755,497 )     3,146,618  
 
(6)
Deposit Administration Contract
 
The Stable Asset Fund II represents a deposit administration contract (Contract) entered into by the Plan with the Plan’s Recordkeeper, Standard.  Standard maintains the contributions in an unallocated fund, whose assets are invested with other assets in the general account of Standard.  The account is credited with earnings on the underlying investments and charged for Plan withdrawals and administrative expenses by Standard.  Participants may direct the withdrawal or transfer of all or a portion of their investment at contract value.  Contract value represents contributions made under the Contract, plus earnings, less withdrawals and administrative expenses.  There are no reserves against contract value for the credit risk of Contract issuer or otherwise.

The contract crediting rate is established at the end of each quarter and is guaranteed for five years.  Because the contract crediting rate is subject to reset at the end of each quarter at the current portfolio rate basis, the appropriate discount rate used in the calculation of the fair value equals the contract crediting rate.  The effective annual crediting rate and yield for the Contract was approximately 3.3% and 3.2%  respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2011 and 3.4% and 3.3%, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2010.

RETIREMENT SAVINGS PLAN
 
Notes to Financial Statements
 
December 31, 2011 and 2010
 
There were no events that limited the ability of the Plan to withdraw contract value or otherwise transact at contract value with Standard as the contract issuer.  Standard may defer any withdrawal request for 30 days after receipt of written notice of the withdrawal request, and may defer honoring any withdrawal request for any reasonable period if, due to the closing or other disruption of financial markets or exchanges, Standard is unable to prudently liquidate assets necessary to satisfy the request. A delay caused by market disruption is improbable of occurring.  Standard may terminate the contract with 30 days advance written notice to the contract owner.

(7)
Related Party Transactions
 
Certain Plan assets are units of pooled separate accounts and deposit administration contracts managed by Standard.  Standard is the Recordkeeper as defined by the Plan, and therefore, these investment transactions qualify as party-in-interest transactions. The Recordkeeper receives investment and administrative fees as a result of these activities.  Interest income of $262,987 and $238,910 was incurred by the Recordkeeper and charged to the Plan in 2011 and 2010.  The Plan assets also include shares of Company common stock.  World Acceptance Corporation is the Plan Sponsor; therefore, these investment transactions qualify as party-in-interest transactions.  Investment in Company stock is participant directed.
 
(8)
Fair Value
 
FASB ASC 820 defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. FASB ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
 
o           Level 1 – Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

o           Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for assets and liabilities, either directly or indirectly. These inputs include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in market that are less active.

o           Level 3 – Unobservable inputs for assets or liabilities reflecting the reporting entity’s own assumptions.

Notes to Financial Statements
 
December 31, 2011 and 2010
 
Following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for assets measured at fair value.  There have been no changes in the methodologies used at December 31, 2011.
 
Money market funds:  Stated at net asset value, which the Plan considers a practical expedient to fair value.
 
Pooled separate accounts:  Valued at the net asset value based principally on quoted market price.
 
Common stock:  Valued at its quoted market price.
 
Stable asset fund:  Stated at fair value based on interest rate forecasts and credit risk for the investments underlying the contract.
 
The methods described above may produce a fair value calculation that may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values.  Furthermore, while the Plan believes its valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different fair value measurement at the reporting date.
