Copart (CPRT) Stock Analysis & Forecast
Nov 4 close
$32.62+1.56 (+5.0%)
Gekko Brief
AI summaryNov 4 closeCopart shares moved higher this week, rising on gains tied to increasing total loss frequency in car insurance, a trend that benefits the company's salvage-auction business, even as the broader market declined on some sessions. The stock also drew attention after a report characterized it as trading at 19.9x earnings, a level described as cheap relative to a peer group, while a separate piece noted the stock underperforming competitors on a down day that broke a four-day winning streak. Separately, former Copart CEO Jeffrey Liaw was appointed to the board of ZipRecruiter, a move unrelated to Copart's own operations.
Copart closes at $32.62, up 5% on the day, sitting between its 50-day average of $29.47 and 200-day average of $32.23. The stock's one-month return stands at 21.6%, though the one-year return remains at -24.1%. The GekkoIndex reads 46.3, placing it in the Neutral zone, down 9.6 points over the past five sessions. Price sits 5.5% above Gekko Fair Value of $30.93.
Copart next reports earnings on 19 November 2026, after the close, 14 days away and inside a typical 20-trading-day holding window; the prior quarter produced a -6.5% reaction with EPS of $0.35 against a $0.38 estimate.

- What they said
- Copart reported global unit sales down 2.9% (domestic -5.7%, international +10%) in Q4 fiscal 2026, with insurance units down 4.2% globally. Excluding one customer loss, domestic insurance assignments would have grown 2.3%. Insurance ASPs rose 3.1% globally, outpacing the Manheim index (+2.8%). Total loss frequency hit a record 23.3% in Q2 2026, driven by average collision severity exceeding $6,300, up 8.8% YoY.
- Guidance
- Management expects total loss frequency to continue rising, supported by increasing vehicle complexity and repair costs up 50%+ since 2019. Three growth pillars—international expansion, domestic whole car, and technology/services—will drive strategy, with new products expected within four quarters.
