NEW YORK, Nov. 7, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Juan Monteverde,
founder and managing partner at Monteverde &
Associates PC, a boutique securities firm headquartered at the Empire State Building in New York
City announces an investigation against World Acceptance Corporation(NasdaqGS: WRLD)("World Acceptance" or the "Company")
for possible violations of federal securities laws.
The investigation focuses on whether World Acceptance and certain of its officers and/or directors violated federal securities
laws.
On June 14, 2017 World Acceptance revealed that it would postpone filing its annual report on
Form 10-K with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), citing an internal probe of its Mexico operations.
According to the filing, the Company is "focusing 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." Following this announcement World Acceptance's share price fell
from $83.30 per share on June 14, 2017 to a closing price of
$73.00 on June 15, 2017.
Then on August 8, 2017, the Company disclosed that the SEC had "issued a formal order of
investigation" in connection with the internal investigation, causing the stock dropped $1.74 per
share, or 2.16%, to close at $78.68 on August 9, 2017.
