Note: Discussions in each section provide third quarter comparisons from fiscal year 2023 to fiscal year 2024.
TOTAL REVENUE - A 7.9% drop in revenue was primarily driven by the decrease in retail units sold. Interest income contributed favorably and was up 16.0% year-over-year. A portion of the decline in revenue was masked by the average retail sales price being up 7.5%.
SALES - Sales for the quarter were 11,664 units vs. 14,508 units, down 19.6% compared to the prior year quarter. Total credit application volume was down 8.3% year over year, which represented about half of the sales decline. Two fewer selling days during the quarter, and weather in January accounted for approximately 3-4% of the decrease in sales volume compared to the prior year quarter.
GROSS PROFIT - Gross profit per unit was $7,043, compared to $6,373 for the prior year's third quarter. This improvement in gross profit per unit resulted from better operational execution in pricing discipline and continued improvements on the cost of vehicle repairs. The Company experienced headwinds in gross profit related to lower prices in the wholesale market and an increased volume of wholesale vehicles related to the higher credit losses in the prior quarter. Despite these headwinds, gross profits per retail until sold were still up 10.5% year-over-year.
NET CHARGE-OFFS - Net charge-offs as a percentage of average finance receivables were 6.8% compared to 5.9% during the prior year's third quarter. Sequentially, net charge-offs improved 40 basis points from 7.2% for the second quarter of fiscal 2024. As a reference, the quarterly performance of net charge-offs for the five-year period preceding the pandemic have ranged from 5.9% - 8.7%, signaling a return to more normal pre-pandemic levels. Both the frequency and severity of losses played an equal part in overall net charge-offs performance for the quarter. Delinquencies (accounts 30 days or more past due) improved year over year by 40 basis points to 3.3% of finance receivables as of January 31, 2024, and sequentially by 30 basis points from 3.6% of finance receivables as of October 31, 2023.
ALLOWANCE FOR CREDIT LOSSES - The Company decreased the allowance for credit loss as a percentage of finance receivables, net of deferred revenue and pending accident protection plan claims, from 26.04% at October 31, 2023 to 25.74% at January 31, 2024, providing a $3.9 million benefit to the provision for credit losses during the current quarter, resulting in a positive impact to basic earnings (loss) per share of $0.50. The key drivers of the adjustment were a lower overall inflationary outlook and lower delinquencies at quarter end.
UNDERWRITING - A majority of sales originated during the quarter were through our new LOS. The Company continued to enhance and update processes within the system to attract higher down-payments, shorter terms, and a stronger consumer profile relative to its legacy system. The average originating term for the quarter was 43.3 months, down from the sequential quarter at 44.1 months. This was up from an average term of 42.5 months for the prior year's third quarter.
SG&A EXPENSE - SG&A expense was $43.6 million compared to $44.7 million for the prior year quarter. This also delivered a $1.3 million benefit sequentially aided by the cost control activities implemented in the previous quarter. These actions assisted in bringing SG&A per average account down 6.7% ($421 compared to $451) compared to the prior year period. We continue to focus on expense management and the overall efficiency of the business.
ACQUISITIONS - The Company completed the purchase of Central Auto Sales in Hot Springs, Arkansas, which was announced in December. We are actively working on other opportunities we expect to materialize during the calendar year.
TRANSACTION - In February, the Company entered into a strategic partnership with Cox Automotive which is expected to drive better outcomes regarding vehicle acquisition, reconditioning, transportation, and remarketing activities. Cox Automotive is recognized as the world's largest automotive services and technology provider.
FINANCING - The Company paid off its April 2022 asset-backed non-recourse notes during the quarter. During the quarter, Kroll Bond Rating Agency upgraded the rating on all notes from our 2023-1 issuance. Lastly, we completed our fourth asset-backed non-recourse term securitization on January 31, 2024, issuing $250 million in bonds with a weighted average fixed coupon rate of 9.5%. The net proceeds were used to pay outstanding debt and make the initial deposits into the related collection and reserve accounts to benefit the noteholders.
Subsequent to quarter end, the Company renewed and extended its revolving credit agreement to September 2025 with a total commitment of $340 million with a group of seven banks.
CASH-ON-CASH RETURNS - The Company continues to originate finance receivable pools with attractive cash-on-cash returns. The following table provides details regarding the cash-on-cash returns for our existing loan pools:

1 "Cash-on-cash returns" represent the return on cash invested by the Company in the vehicle finance loans the Company originates and is calculated with respect to a pool of loans (or finance receivables) by dividing total "cash in" less "cash out" by total "cash out" with respect to such pool. "Cash in" represents the total cash the Company expects to collect on the pool of finance receivables, including credit losses. This includes down-payments, principal and interest collected (including special and seasonal payments) and the fair market value of repossessed vehicles, if applicable. "Cash out" includes purchase price paid by the Company to acquire the vehicle (including reconditioning and transportation costs), and all other post-sale expenses as well as expenses related to our ancillary products. The calculation assumes estimates on expected credit losses net of fair market value of repossessed vehicles and the related timing of such losses as well as post sales repair expenses and special payments. The Company evaluates and updates expected credit losses quarterly. The credit quality of each pool is monitored and compared to prior and initial forecasts and is reflected in our on-going internal cash-on-cash projections.
