Summary
- Copart has a strong moat with network effects and scale economies, making it difficult for new entrants to replicate its success.
- The key demand drivers for Copart's services include miles driven, accident and salvage rates.
- Copart has proven to be recession-resistant and has a healthy balance sheet with minimal debt.
- However, the stock is currently trading at a forward P/E of 38.76 which is quite high.
- Key risks include the advent of autonomous vehicles, the outcome of its international expansion efforts and its dependence on few large insurers on the supply side.
