Copart, Inc. (CPRT) is a Industrials company in the Specialty Business Services industry with a 84/100 Strong Buy score. Key strengths include Gross Margin (49.0%), Net Margin (31.8%), Return on Equity (16.2%). The score on this page is a five-factor screen — revenue growth, gross margin, net margin, return on equity and debt-to-equity — each scored against fixed thresholds from a neutral starting point of 50 points. The eight-section analysis, including moat, free cash flow, dilution and valuation, runs in the full report.
This page score and the strengths and concerns above are produced by deterministic, rule-based calculations from the available third-party financial inputs documented below. AI does not choose the score, strengths, or concerns. Data and automated summaries can contain errors. This is not personalized investment advice. See our methodology and disclaimer.
The calculation starts at 50 points and applies the five fixed adjustments shown below. A missing input contributes zero. The current implementation also skips a provider-supplied numeric zero, which the table identifies separately. The pre-clamp result is 84; the published result is clamped to a minimum of 10 and maximum of 98, producing 84/100.

80 or higher: Strong Buy; 65–79: Buy; 50–64: Hold; below 50: Caution.
These are fixed names for score ranges. The score is not a success probability, recommendation, or forecast, and 80/100 does not mean an 80% chance of a gain.
This page was generated . The provider identifies the latest underlying financial period as July 31, 2026. The displayed market quote is dated September 16, 2026. Generation time is not the same as the date of the underlying filing or market observation.
Financial inputs may be delayed, restated, differently standardized by the data provider, or unavailable. Missing values receive no positive or negative adjustment rather than being estimated. This can make a sparse-data score less informative. The screen does not capture every business, market, valuation, or portfolio risk, and investors can lose money.
