Executive summary

Copart operates online vehicle auctions for salvage and used cars, trucks and other vehicles, with yards in the United States and several other countries. Insurance companies, dealers and individuals use it to dispose of vehicles that are damaged, recovered from theft or no longer wanted. It earns money from fees charged to sellers and buyers, and storage and related services, so volumes depend on insurance claims.

The company reported revenue of $4.7 billion for the last twelve months at Copart Inc. Revenue growth over the past three years averaged 6.4% a year. It kept an operating margin of 35.4%. The return on invested capital reached 18%, a measure of profit earned on the money invested in the business. The company does not pay a dividend.

StocksXray gives Copart Inc an X-Ray Score of 65 out of 100 (medium confidence), ahead of 91% of the S&P 500 stocks in its sector. Its strongest lens is valuation (80) and its weakest is growth (46).

Our fair value blend is $42.22 (range $39.59 to $45.31). At $27.87 the stock trades 34% below that blend, so the label is "Undervalued" with medium model uncertainty. Fair value is a range, not a price target.

How to read this report

Every number comes from SEC filings, end-of-day prices and the StocksXray models described on the methodology page. The X-Ray Score ranks each metric against the company's own sector. Fair value blends three models and carries a typical error of about 40%, so treat it as a range. Analyst ratings, price targets and earnings-call summaries are not part of this report. Educational research, not financial advice; read the disclaimer.
