About COPART INC

Copart, Inc. (ticker: CPRT) is listed on the U.S. NASDAQ market in the United States, making it a familiar name for growth-oriented investors who follow asset-light platform businesses with strong operating leverage. Founded in 1982 by Willis J. Johnson, the company began as a salvage-yard operation in California and evolved into a global leader in online vehicle auctions and vehicle remarketing. Its corporate headquarters are in Dallas, Texas, underscoring both its U.S. base and the scale of its domestic operations.

The company connects consignors — primarily insurance companies, but also financial institutions, rental car companies, fleet operators, dealers, charities, and individuals — with buyers such as dealers, dismantlers, rebuilders, exporters, and the general public. Its offering spans the full used-vehicle lifecycle, from heavily damaged salvage-title vehicles to drivable, clean-title vehicles. That breadth is strategically important because it gives Copart access to multiple supply streams and helps it deepen liquidity across a single marketplace infrastructure.

Its moat is supported by a combination of marketplace liquidity, proprietary technology, yard and logistics infrastructure, condition-reporting capabilities, and operational know-how. Management has also emphasized an international growth model that is disciplined and scalable, with operations in more than 10 countries, including the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Brazil, Germany, Ireland, Finland, the United Arab Emirates, Oman, Bahrain, and Spain. The company says its platform serves members in more than 185 countries, which highlights the global reach of its buyer network.

In fiscal 2025, Copart reported 15.3% growth in units sold from commercial consignors, as well as 8.1% growth in international unit volumes and 9.8% growth in fee units, with especially strong performance in the United Kingdom, Germany, Brazil, and the UAE. Management also highlighted product and process enhancements designed to better serve commercial partners and expand the company’s role beyond traditional insurance salvage. Recent SEC Form 4 filings have also attracted market attention, reflecting ongoing scrutiny of insider activity and investor interest in governance and capital allocation. ([copart.com](https://www.copart.com/content/copart-ceo-lettertostockholders-2025.pdf)) For French-speaking investors, Copart stands out as a U.S.-listed infrastructure-style marketplace company exposed to a structural theme: the ongoing digitalization of auto auctions and the rising complexity and repair cost of modern vehicles, which continue to support the salvage and vehicle remarketing ecosystem.
