Copart also offers services such as vehicle transportation, storage, title transfer, and salvage value estimation. The company primarily operates on a consignment basis and collects fees based on the vehicle's final selling price.

What the Analysts think about Copart
Analyst ratings (Buy, Hold, Sell) for Copart stock.
Analyst projections of the future price of Copart stock.
Bulls say / Bears say
International operations provide a second growth engine. Q4 international revenue rose 11.7%, units rose 10% and insurance units rose 11.2%; management says its international markets are profitable and plans further expansion across Europe. (StockAnalysis)
Copart is still monetising a deep and diverse buyer network despite weaker volumes. Average selling prices rose 5.5% for FY26, while international buyers represented 45.7% of the dollars spent at US auctions, supporting seller returns and revenue per vehicle. (The Motley Fool, exa.ai)
The proposed ACV acquisition could broaden Copart from salvage into whole-car dealer remarketing. ACV brings more than 800,000 vehicles, about $10 billion of annual gross merchandise value and over 22,000 active buyers, while Copart brings physical sites, logistics and a global buyer base; management expects earnings accretion after integration. (StockAnalysis, The Motley Fool)
US insurance volume is weakening where Copart is most exposed. Q4 US insurance units fell 7.5% and global units fell 2.9%; higher premiums and reduced coverage are cutting the flow of claims into salvage auctions. (StockAnalysis, TIKR.com)
Profitability is deteriorating as investment costs run ahead of revenue. Q4 revenue rose 2.4%, but gross profit fell 5.5% and net income fell 17.4%, while operating expenses rose 10% and operating expense per car rose 12.7%. (last10k.com, StockAnalysis)
Competitive pressure could make a US recovery harder. RB Global is rebuilding its salvage-auction business while Copart’s service revenue grew only 1.4% in Q4, which could limit insurer retention and fee growth. (24/7 Wall St., TickerGuard)
