WRLD
World Acceptance Corporation (WRLD) Scenario Analysis Analysis (2026)
Overall Score
Base Case
The company continues to show very strong liquidity with a current ratio of 242.8x and cash ratio of 3.0x.
Cash generation remains robust, with free cash flow conversion near 98.0% of operating cash flow and a very low EV/FCF multiple.
Profitability is still only moderate, with net margin at 6.6% and operating margin at 17.5%.
Upside Case
If WRLD sustains its high cash conversion and current valuation, upside could come from continued deleveraging and multiple expansion.
Operating returns remain acceptable, with ROIC at 7.7% and ROCE at 9.6%.
Downside Case
Leverage remains the key downside risk, with net debt to EBITDA at 5.8x and interest coverage at 2.0x.
The business still carries execution risk from weak working-capital efficiency, including a 520.9-day operating cycle and 377.3-day cash conversion cycle.
