Description: CPRT Copart September 29, 2025
Copart Inc. (NASDAQ: CPRT) operates a global, web-based vehicle remarketing platform that connects sellers-such as insurers, banks, fleet operators, and charities-with a network of licensed dismantlers, rebuilders, dealers, and end-consumers across 12 countries, including the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Brazil, Germany, the United Arab Emirates and several others.
The core of Copart’s service suite is its third-generation virtual bidding auction technology, which enables real-time, 360-degree vehicle inspections (via Copart 360) and automated pricing tools like IntelliSeller. Ancillary offerings include end-of-life processing, title services, on-demand reporting, and branded resale channels (e.g., BluCar, CashForCars). The company also runs Purple Wave Inc., a wholesale remarketing platform for construction, agricultural, and fleet assets, and a non-salvage powersport auction segment.
From a financial standpoint, Copart reported FY 2023 revenue of approximately $3.1 billion, with an adjusted EBITDA margin near 15 % and a year-over-year auction volume increase of roughly 12 %. The business is highly sensitive to macro-level drivers such as U.S. auto-insurance loss ratios, vehicle fleet age (which fuels salvage supply), and broader e-commerce adoption that underpins online auction participation. A key sector benchmark is the consolidated market share of the two largest U.S. auto-auction groups (Copart and KAR), which together command roughly 45 % of total salvage auction volume.
