tenant needs to break lease

I have two tenants (roomates) who need to break lease. One has work relocation and the other is a college student that has job internship. I have no doubt they have legitimate reasons.

Lease is one year and they are 6 months in. They think they have someone who would want to rent. I would end their lease and do background checks on new potential tenants.

Should I still keep security deposit for ending lease early?

If new potential tenants don't meet requirements they seem to be content to continue paying lease agreement until I find someone or agreement is up.

Your experienced opinions are very much appreciated, Thanks in advance!
